Overdrill on mayhem?
Im not asking if it is posible cuz i already know that answer...

Im talking about the achievement, here's a story for you:

About a week or so i did overdrill with some pubs on mayhem, something i didn't know you can. But when we were done i did get no achievement, "ohh ok i might need to do it from the very start" i said, cuz i joined a few minutes after the heist started.

Then i did it again with some more pubs and this time i did joined from start. No achievement again, so i thought, "ok must ve a DW+ only thing".

Today i hosted the overdrill with a friend and some more pubs. And guess what, i DID GET the achievement this time!!!

Im i getting crazy? Why the other 2 times it didn't count? Is this a bug? Or is pd2 messing with my head?.

Im not posting this in the bug report forum cuz i realy have no idea what just happened. Any ideas guys?.

You need to enter the special vault.

And with Mayhem using Deathwish level settings, I excepted that being possible.

To Do Overdill and getting the achievement, you would need to do on DW+. Yes, you can now do it on Mayhem, but you won't be getting the achievement. I believe it's a feature that has been added during the Welcoming Party Updates.

Mayhem isn´t DW. So it shouldn´t be possible. Doesn´t matter if it uses DW assets.

Well Mayhem, DW and OD are strictly the same mechanic-wise. There is a huge difference between Overkill and Mayhem or old DW, but none between Mayhem and OD.

That's why I didn't add an OD category on speedrun.com but rather merged it with DW for example, as you can do the very same time on OD than on DW, while it is not true for DW and Overkill.
I technically could have merged Mayhem with OD and DW too but I didn't to avoid a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ from competitive (not collaborative) runners as Mayhem is supposedly easier.

If you enter the vault, the achievement triggers. If you can get into the vault on mayhem, it should trigger too.

Simple.


@El Pastela

The first time I did overdrill, I had to defend cause the other 3 guys just sucked at killing enough cops. I never saw the vault and I got no achievement :steamhappy:

Wait, you can do this on Mayhem too? Huh, did not know that... Well I guess that's good news for a friend of mine who is even worse than me but still always wanted to do it anyway.
