After 8 Months, 343 Industries Finally Fixes Halo 4 Achievement Bug
Eight months ago, 343 Industries acknowledged that Halo 4 players were experiencing an achievement bug. Today, a patch has finally been implemented that will make six achievements attainable once more.
343 Industries studio head Bonnie Ross shared the news via Twitter. “We’ve just released an update for the Halo 4 DLC achievements issue,” she writes. “Check it out and let us know if it is working. Apologies for the delay.”
According to the post on the Halo 4 forums eight months ago, the achievements that were affected include:
- Ashes to Ashes
- Clever Girl
- Bird of Prey
- Pigs Can Fly
- Size is Everything
- Hello Nurse!
You should be able to unlock those after updating your game.

Our Take
With 343 Industries acknowledging this over eight months ago, it’s hard to fathom what took so long. The Master Chief Collection is out in about a month, and I hope the support for that game gets speedier attention should anything go wrong.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
