Wastleland 2 - 100% Achievements guide
By Tigi
Finally guide is 100% completed, it took about 110 hours playing, testing and writing guide. Achievements are sorted by order you can get them, so you don't need to play game twice, save load will be enough.

As far as I know, every achievement is missable except of 2 story achievements (West of eden, Back where it all began). As you can ignore quests or mostly finish them without getting any of achievement related to that quest. So save do achievement and load and do another achievement, load again if needed to get third achievement. When I was playing I had about 100 saves. Save before entering any location.

Some locations became closed, Canyon of Titan (if DBM takes over Temple) or If you deliver nuke to Monks (Canyon and Temple). Hollywood if you press red button, all buildings are collapsed.

When you leave for LA you cannot do any quests in Arizona any more.

That you for comments I'll update guide, in a few days.
pgann 5 Sep, 2015 @ 8:30am 
nevermind, figured it out myself. that map is inside the Bastion.
pgann 3 Sep, 2015 @ 8:20pm 
what map screen is that for "blast from the past" combat skill?
MangAnimE 21 Jul, 2015 @ 2:30am 
For "A Gentle Heart" it was the smaller computer against the wall that deactivated the signal, after hacking the large one. When I did it.
MangAnimE 20 Jul, 2015 @ 7:34am 
Seems level of skill needed for extra dialogue options varies with difficulty setting. Was playing on easy & got the "Peace On The Rails" achievement with skill levels Smart Ass at lvl 1 & Kiss Ass at lvl 3 (don't recall which one I used). May also have some effect on other achievements (eg: no/ friendly fire damage on main characters so can't kill them)
Papa Shekels 31 Jan, 2015 @ 11:17am 
By the way, the canyon goes to hell if you disarm or send the nuke to DBM. I haven't tried sending it to monks yet, but I presume it will also go to hell. Meaning you can't get the uranium toaster or the log in the underground silo.
alpasy 18 Jan, 2015 @ 10:14pm 
it looks like a bug on your part. numerous thread posts [forums.inxile-entertainment.com] all say the same thing: nothing happens after you push the button. i pushed it myself when i started questing in Hollywood and went in the sewers and out of sewers numerous times after that for quests (other buildings as well, of course).
Tigi  [author] 18 Jan, 2015 @ 2:37pm 
Now I really don't know. I pushed button two times and same thing happen. I couldn't go out in second exit from sewers, only on streets not to heidi. I couldn't enter any building ,shop, bar nothing...
alpasy 18 Jan, 2015 @ 9:27am 
looks like you fell prey to a troll or something. the red button on the computer in Hollywood Sewers doesn't "collapse all buildings in Hollywood", it doesn't do anything in fact (apart from ground shaking effect). the theory is that's just a joke from the developers: in Ranger Citadel you push the button on the museum nuke and it blows up while pushing the really ominous button in a dark dungeon on a lone strange computer doesn't do thing, just scares you with a distant explosion. :Uranium:
