Mad Scientist achievement in Rocket League

232 9 39

This achievement can be unlocked either naturally by playing the rocket labs 3v3 online playlist, or in exhibition.

For a nice quick unlock, simply enter exhibition match and select the following;
Game Mode : Soccar
Arena(s) : Underpass, Utopia Retro, Double Goal, Cosmic, Pillars (any 3 of these 5 are fine).
Team Size : 1v1
Bot Difficulty : No Bots
Mutator Settings : Max Score = 1goal

Once in, score a quick goal for the win, select exit to main menu after the match and then select the next arena. The achievement should unlock within a few seconds of completing the 3rd match.

Important Note - 22/06/16
Some users are reporting problems unlocking this achievement. The game is failing to track progression towards the unlock under certain circumstances, yet is still ticking off the arenas as completed internally. This means some have played all 5 arenas yet only have 33% or 66%.

Advice for now would be to track your percentage after each match to make absolute certain it is progressing.

Since I have been unable to replicate the bug, I have no idea on a fix. Will update if that changes.

I did the same as RyanMpwnz. Just deleted local save. It synced when starting the game up too but after playing the 3 arenas as above it popped fine... So maybe try deleting save locally first - it could save some time.

I too got it to fix by simply deleting my local save. No reason to go through all the offline steps. It still took them a bit to register, not sure why...buy I just played each court twice and got it on the fourth court.

I just got this and I couldn't win a goal then quit, it wasn't showing any progress but for the one you always get in rumble. Just make an exhibition match 1v1, no bots, 1 goal to win, then win the match, let it conclude, exit to menu, pick a new arena then repeat for a total of 3 complete matches. It will pop on the third completions winners circle

just quit to main menu before going to the next level. worked fine for me. when i first just went to the next level, my progress didnt change. going to the main menu after each win fixed it.

HELLO!
I may have a solution for people not getting tracked. I played 2 matches and it tracked fine then stopped.
And I simply let the AI score in a 5th attempt. And it tracked. Don't lnow if it's really a solution

Same as RyanMpwnz, I tried deleting my save without Going offline didn’t work. Still an issue in 2022 anyone have any ideas?

Edit: I found this article buried away on reddit. This method worked for me and fixed it once I was able to sync my cloud save. For anyone still struggling, follow this method. Happy to help anyone too if they need. :)
