The official requirement
Steam describes the achievement in one line: “Kill a creature with a 360 no scope.” It does not specify a particular weapon, creature or island. A launch-day 100% walkthrough shows the achievement being approached literally: a full spin followed by an unscoped kill.

Clean attempt setup
- Use a normal creature. Bosses add health, movement and reset costs that do not help the achievement.
- Deal setup damage first. Leave the target at a predictable one-shot health range.
- Move to open ground. A wall, tree or nearby enemy can interrupt the rotation or change the kill.
- Do not aim through the scope. Start and finish the spin in hip-fire view.
- Turn through a complete circle. Use a clear landmark to know when you have returned to the starting direction.
- Fire the final shot immediately. Avoid delayed explosives or environmental damage that could take credit for the kill.
Shots drift after turning, before the achievement unlocks
A September 12 Steam player reports the gun and shots staying offset after left or right turns, especially with a sniper and visibly with a laser sight. If that matches your attempt, first compare a plain hip-fired shot before and after a turn using the hip-fire aiming checks. A missed finishing shot is different from a successful kill that fails to award the achievement.
The report does not prove that the 360 achievement trigger is broken, and Patch 1.0.12 does not announce a hip-fire change or fix. Aiming down sights may be useful for comparison, but the achievement attempt still needs an unscoped finishing shot.
If it does not unlock
- Use a slightly wider open area so the spin is not shortened by collision.
- Start with a visible landmark centered, then rotate until that landmark returns to center.
- Make sure the finishing shot—not a prior effect—kills the creature.
- Keep the scope off for the entire final sequence.
- Try another ordinary creature rather than changing several variables at once.
