My FFA wins achievement became 0 when I already have the 50 wins achievement.

and the FFA wins became on my profile as FFA match played instead.

I have this problem too. I had 98 FFA wins before the ladder reset, now after winning 2 more FFAs I have 100 FFA wins but only 2 FFA wins counted by the FFA achievement. Blizzard, fix the achievement counters, please!

Same here guys. Whenever I hit 50 wins I got the 50 FFA wins achievement no problem, however, I continued with my FFA battles winning 4 additional FFA's bringing my total up to 54. This was not the case for the achievement counter as it was registering 12/100 for some odd reason. I have had this problem with the Wings of Liberty: Hard campaign counter as well until Blizzard fixed the issue in an update. My profile summary is showing 54 wins (the correct number). I'm going to continue to see if the achievement registers at 100 wins in the profile summary or if I have to start all over again at 12 (-_-). Please fix this issue, Blizzard, in your next update.

Add another voice to this problem. I noticed that this occurred about the same time that the three mods (e.g., Auir Chef) were published along with their achievements. It might have coincided with the release of patch 1.3.1, although I didn't notice the problem until the 5th or 6th of April.

By any means, my wins count was up to 53 when the FFA wins count in the achievement was reset. After winning one more, in hopes that it would fix the problem, my wins count reported 1 while my profile page (both online and in-game) still said 54. (The online profile did indeed revert to the number of FFA games played, rather than wins, but this was fixed two or three days ago.) This sounds like the same thing that has happened to everyone here, apparently only to people who had won between 50 and 100 FFAs. Oddly enough, it doesn't seem to have happened universally (non of my friends have this problem). But it is quite annoying, and distressing. What's the point of trying to finish all the achievements based on win counts if there's no guarantee that the counts will be kept safe?

By the way, I've already contacted Blizzard through their Account Services and In-Game Services contacts, but all they could say was: post the problem here and hopefully it will get fixed. In fact, one of them included the following statement in their reply: "Unfortunately, we are unable to adjust any sort of in-game achievement, adjust any saved games, or modify ladder rankings. Should any progress be lost or corrupted in anyway, we will be unable to provide assistance or reimbursement for that progress."

I really hope that this is not the case. For all the effort that Blizzard puts into creating a balanced and fair multiplayer experience, it isn't very fair for those of us striving to get all the achievements to have some of our progress randomly lost. I really hope that this problem will be fixed soon.

Me too.

I decided to check my FFA achievement progress and to my horror it said 0/100 wins. But I still had the 50 FFA wins achievement unlocked! I had 57 FFA wins on my profile. I decided to win one FFA to see what would happen, and it put me up to 1/100 wins. Bummer.

I'm hoping to slowly complete this achievement over a long period of time, but this sort of setback is incredibly disheartening.

Blizzard, please take a look =)

I hope Blizzard will fix this. This is such a discouragement to us players to play more games knowing that our achievement might get bugged and resetted again.

And after cheking onto a few other people's profile, it seems that most of them does not have this bug, maybe its true what Lars said, it only occurs for wins between 50 and 100.

Another thing is that on our profile on this website, it still states our real/original FFA wins if prove is needed.

Bump! I know this is not a major issue. But for some people, it does mean alot because getting the wins for this FFA achievement is not easy. I hope Blizzard will fix this bug.

I still have the same problem. I noticed something, in-game achievement is broken but at the page profile is working fine:

http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/profile/1426648/1/Guandal/achievements/category/4325391

59/100.

So i dont know if i continue playing FFA to 100/100, will i get the achievement?

Bump! This still hasn't been fixed, and I just wonder if it will ever be. Will someone from Blizzard please reply? I'm trying to make this bug easy to identify and fix.

We already know that the number of FFA wins on the in-game profile page is correct, but for some reason, the number of FFA wins in the achievement page is what was reset. Ironically, I noticed that on my profile web page, the FFA wins are still showing up. Numbers aren't shown here, but the progress bar is obviously filled just over halfway for the 100 FFA wins achievement (this is what Guandal noticed already), so this bug appears to just be a disconnect between the profile page and the stored achievement progress.

I am also curious about what Guandal said regarding continuing to play FFAs. Winning another 100 FFAs (which will take a while) might reset the problem and cause the number of FFA wins to start registering correctly, which would be somewhere between 150 and 199 for everyone here, given that this problem only affected those with 50 to 99 FFA wins. However, I'm a little worried that getting to 100 FFA wins will cause the achievement counter to reset the profile page counter (which we know to be correct) to 100 at that point, in essence losing the 50 to 99 wins permanently... Blizzard, please help.

Bump! So that Blizzard can see this.

Man, Im so scared that my other incomplete achievements are going to disappear.

i.e Coop vs Insane AI which I already reach 180+ wins. It would be total BS if it get reseted to 0.

Bump again. I hear you Grimtooth. It is especially frightening to think of the league game achievements (1000 wins as each race and random). Can you imagine losing progress after having won a few hundred solo league games and a few hundred team games? Some of these achievements require an insane amount of wins (and therefore time playing the game). It is disheartening to think that at any moment another patch or update could cause progress for any one of these achievements to be lost.
