We have spent some time optimizing how achievements work, and are excited to bring them back to everyone. Due to the varied nature of how this system works, we are unfortunately not able to retroactively grant them all, but we will be doing our best to roll out as many as we can. Please see the list below for a comprehensive breakdown of what achievements are going to be automatically triggered on your account, and those that will need to be earned going forward: [center][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=mb&board=ann&id=1015830]Click here to read more about today's update.[/url][/center][more] [center][img]http://flightrising.com/dropbox/achievements_enabled.png[/img][/center] [b]Retroactive Achievements[/b] These achievements will be awarded to you automatically, based on database information.
