    So I was playing with friends in Scavenge and I was the charger and I charged my friend over 80 feet after picking him up and it wont give me the achievement. Is anyone else having this problem? Or am i not doing something right

    @Tarsier: Thing is though when i charge i dont hit a wall he does stop on his own its really weird. Although lately i have come to point out its glitching a lot for some reason.

    @Tarsier: Lucky! I cant seem to get it. The first one i ever got was meat tenderizer or something. As the charger pound some one into the ground for like 15 seconds.

    This has happened to me. i can only assume the charger has a maximum charge distance with or without survivor, therefore you have to start your charge toward the suvivors when you're quite close. if you start a fair distance away from them (as i did) by the time you've ran toward them and picked one of them up there isn't enough distance left in the charger to carry the survivor over 80 feet.
    try hiding round corners with a clearing opposite you or running round the survivors punching them before charging away with one when your positioning is right. timing is all important with the infected given the 'recharge' time for their special attacks.

    i'd love to try out getting that achievement if the game would stop crashing to desktop whenever i play scavenge mode -___-
     i suppose i should be thankful that my CTD's have ONLY happened while playing scavenge though.  hasn't even happened to me in campaign which is nice.
     now that i think about it though...the CTD's i've been getting were while i was playing on XP.  i need to try playing the game in Win7.
     
    but yeah, i don't remember hearing about this many achievement bugs in L4D1.  hopefully valve will get the problems sorted out soon.  other than that though the game is still totally playable.

    It's not really messed up. It was an error or something, keep trying.

    Some of the achievements in this game are a bit iffy. Especially the ones involving the charger, like the 'melee the charger while he's running' one. Did that 3 times before I got it.

    that one's particularly tricky cuz i'm guessing you also need to take lag into account which means you don't just wait for the charger to get close to you when he's in the middle of the charge.  i think you're supposed to swing your melee weapon ahead of time to compensate for lag.
