    This is more of a helpful tip I tried (which worked) until a proper guide comes along for those that already had collected/listen to 5 answering machines messages before the April patch and never got the achievement or that haven't got it yet.

    If you already have them collected then look in your mission log for missions that have a cassette tape icon (not all cassette icons are answering machine messages). When you click on the cassette look for this picture:

    1. Load your game and go to your log with all your missions listed.
    2. Scroll through your missions and if they have a cassette tape icon, click on the mission and click the cassette tape icon.
    3. After clicking on the cassette tape icon (and it has the picture above) then play/listen to the recording.
    4. Do this to 5 different messages and the achievement should pop (if not sooner).

    For those that are looking for or already have them here is a list of quests with answering machine messages:

    The Farm
    The Road to Salthamn
    Shooting Practice
    Unbearable Lightness
    Calling for Help
    Seeds of Doubt
    Beyond the Barricade
    The Girl Who Cried Wolf
    Stealing from the Poor
    Colonists
    Flying Objects
    The Gas Factory
    Supply Run
    Science of Destruction
    Empty Spaces


    There maybe more but this is what I have in my mission log with the answering machine picture and is more than you need for the achievement. Good luck to everyone and hope this helps out anyone trying to go for this achievement.

    Alias DJADid exactly as guide said - worked fine.

    Loaded game and first thing I did in a safe spot with no enemies around

    I made sure I played a random message first ( not a voice message ) waited for it to finish then selected 5 that said in the description " answering message, or machine message"

    Waited for it to play complete before moving onto the next one making sure the load /save symbol comes and goes so that it registers.

    Popped as soon as the 5th one started.

    MotorexGTR32I followed this guide as it says and I listened to all 6 missions as the list shown.

    The Farm
    The Road to Salthamn
    Shooting Practice
    Unbearable Lightness
    Calling for Help

    The achievement didn’t unlock cry

    How can I fix it?

    S4WSorry MotorexGTR32 that the achievement didn't unlock. All I can suggest is to try re-listening to them again from your log (make sure you have 5 different recordings and listen to them from start to finish) or keep playing and see if it unlocks when you listen to anymore. If it still doesn't unlock then I can only assume that it is broken yet again and you will have to wait for a fix from the dev's. Good luck :)
