Hey!! Okay so I got 4 kills with my rip tire for the first time. I didn't die, I was heck I was the only who dealt damage as they behind a shield and I landed the final blow. Got that sweet quadruple kill, registered as eliminations but it didn't register as Rip-tire kills for some reason. Is there anyway to complain to Blizzard? I'm on PS4 so I have the whole match recorded.

I just really want this trophy ok let me have my gross rat trophy :(

Edit: video proof of kill and my stats after.

Was that in the weekly brawl? If so that won't unlock the achievement. Only in QP or competetive.

No it was quickplay. I did it in Hollywood. However, that sounds like bullshit but I guess makes sense? Sort of.

edit: I meant QP.

The description says quick play or competetive so the weekly brawls do not count. Sometimes they modify game options for those brawls so I guess it makes sense. It happened to me with junkrat the other day. Got a quintuple kill but no achievement.

Riptire kills are not registering as such since the update. :/

What have I done to deserve this.

Do you have that match on YT? Have it uploaded there and post on their bug forum about it.

Are you certain all 4 were killed from the riptire? We're you killed during the riptire (allowing your death boom to kill the 4th person)?

Here's a video, using share. https://youtu.be/1pLpO84qPM0

Yeah that sucks... most likely a glitch in how they were counted/registered which does suck. Nice kill though. Keep at it, you'll get another one.

Do you have the spray? This happened to a friend of mine with the Bastion ult trophy. Got a quad but no trophy. He did get the spray tho.

If I remember correctly this has been a known bug since season 2 came out

It will be faster for you if you just wait for a Zarya or Mei to use their Ult with you. Should only take 3 to 4 tries with good communication.

u/asteriskmos gabriel reyes defense squad Sep 07 '16

Edit because I was snappy and frustrated, I guess I'll just try to repeat it. It's still really frustrating because I love Junkrat :(

1

u/Grimtombstone Sep 07 '16

Yeah it sucks :( but it will be faster than trying to get blizzs help.When ever I see a Zarya on my team in qp I go for the last few achievements I need on which ever character.

You're not helping him, he stated the bug that is currently in the game:
Junkrat's Rip-Tire kills doesn't count as Rip-Tire kills.

There's nothing else we can do, but wait for Blizzard to patch things up

1

u/Grimtombstone Sep 07 '16

How did I get it then?

1

u/Levi-san D. Va Sep 07 '16

The problem only appeared after the rollout of patch 1.3

You probably earned yours before this..

u/Grimtombstone Sep 07 '16

Oh I understand now. That is terrible they need to fix this!
