There are still a few classes without achievements and there is talk of
them coming out sometime. You'll know when because everyone will be that
class running around, ignoring tasks to get their new equipment. :-\

I got a flare launcher for pyro, I think it happens when enough enemies die
from their burns after your own expiry. How the hell is that more of an
achievement than staying alive after frying an enemy?

And it seems to me that the flare gun proves the military adage about tracer
rounds, too. (They work both ways.)

From what I can determine about the achievements, they are geared
towards getting people to understand more fully the capabilities of each
of the class.

To use your example, many people might not have known that an enemy
keeps burning even after your death. Also, few Pyros used their axes to
finish off a burning enemy.

Another example is that very few would have known that the Medic can
uber two teammates at the same time, or that they can heal a teammate as
they fly through the air.
