Track Star Achievement

[Torakusu]

Requirement: Win all launch tracks on any difficulty
I just unlocked Beginner Mastery and I'm still 14/22 on this achievement. Something's wrong here. Will be posting this on the bug report thread as well.

[Oberic]

Well do you have a win on every track?

[Torakusu]

Yes, that is a requirement to unlock Mastery.

Thanks for the report. Getting this checked out :)

Wait a second. Are some of those "launch tracks" in co-op as separate instances?

[samninjakiwi]

Yes, they include co-op maps. Have you earned at least one medal on those too?

[Torakusu]

No I have not. I thought tracks on co-op of the same name as ones in single player are treated as the same track for this purpose. That answers that question.

[samninjakiwi]

Cool! Let us know if you still have trouble after completing the co-op maps :)

[Torakusu]

That reminds me. It seems you can't pick maps unless you make a private match. I don't suppose it's possible to make an option in quick match that allows players to play for medals that they do not yet have?

[Torakusu]

Update: It looks like it's not the coop maps. My initial completion of those maps (x4 because I did them on all 4 difficulties) did not count towards the achievement for some reason as I'm gaining progress now completing them in mastery mode.

[Torakusu]

Update: Looks like completing a launch track on only impoppable does not give credit towards the achievement. Bronze/Silver/Gold only.

[Torakusu]

100% confirmed that impoppable does not give credits towards the achievement. Just earned the achievement a few moments ago. Also did some research on the topic of launch tracks.

According Jon.Topps on this forum, the following are launch tracks:
Monkey Lane
Park Path
Archipelago
Bloon Circles
Switch - Confirmed Independently
Mount Magma - Confirmed Independently
Clock - Confirmed Independently
Castle

According to Master Hand on Ninjakiwi forums:
The Rink
Castle
Tunnels
Clock - Confirmed Independently
Drag Strip
Death Valley
Snake River
Crypt Keeper

Only 1 of these 4 tracks is a launch track (Wife's account, 4% 1/22 complete on Track Star and these are the 4 completed tracks):
Monkey Lane
Sprint Track
Express Shipping
Checkers
So if Jon.Topps's assertion is correct that Monkey Lane is a launch track, the other 3 are NOT.

1 out of the following (did all 3 before I checked progress and it only moved by 1):
Scorched Earth
The Eye
Phase Portal

Lightning Scar confirmed to be a launch track as well.

Hope this helps whoever is looking into getting this achievement.

I just got +1 from Phase Portal, so that's the one.

Update: Slalom is also one of the required tracks.
