Pacifist achievement bugged
The pacifist achievement "Don't kill any cannibal for 10 days in a row" isn't working as intended... I killed a whole lot of cannibals but come the 10th days I got the achievement...

Unless beating something and burning it's corpse doesn't class as killing in this game :P

that was my first acheivement, I wasn't even aware of acheivements yet. I just moved from base to base and never even saw any cannibals. it was purely luck that I got it

I've realised another thing upon loading the save and it says It's only day 9

It's old bug :D
And I guess it has very low priority.

I see it is a known bug. Well, it's happened to my friend and I.

well for me it's the other way round...
i'm not killing any cannibals but the kill counter for "Serial Killer" goes up and up while the "Pacifist" is stuck at day 2...

Got the same problem as Sir-Apex.. I play single-player and have killed only one Cannibal so far, but the "Serial Killer" counter keeps growing (its at 15 now) while the Pacifist-Counter is stuck at 3/10 days. I´ve settled on an island and use a boat to get to the mainland and collect ressources, so there aren´t any defenses they could "use" to kill themselfes.. and I doubt that I´ve managed to kill 14 cannibals with trees without noticing even one of them.

You need to survive FIRST 10 days without killing cannibals.

If you kill any cannibal in the first 10 days then... you won't be able to get this achievement on this save anymore and you will need new save.

I have no idea if it is bug or it is supposed to be like this, Devs either need to update the description of achievement or fix it :D

@Wariat117: Allright, thanks a lot for the answer! :) It was starting to really annoy me, because I wanted to get this achievement out of the way before I start setteling on the mainland and build any traps and defenses. Now I don´t need to worry about it anymore and maybe get it at a later time with a new game.

.. and yes, it would be nice if the devs made that clear in the description ;)

Im at Day 14 now on SP killed no one and surviving on an island and eating seagulls but achievement is stucked at 7/10.

I've been stuck with the counter at "2/10 days". Then... all of a sudden, I get "Serial Killer"... and I didn't even kill a single "person" yet. It's been about two in game weeks... still nothing!

I am so hopelessly confused right now...lol. :steamfacepalm:

+1 to this achievement being buggy. I don't think on this save I've killed anyone, yet for me too it's stuck at 2/10 (I'm on day 13).

Simply disable cannibals, create new game and survive first 10 days ;D

The game is bugged and when cannibal suicides... it counts as kill ;d
On multi it's even better because all kills go to host :P Clients have no progress on serial killer :D
