Quake Live: 100% Achievements Guide with Console & Bots

The goal of this guide is to share how to get all achievements in the game only with bots and using the developers console.

You will find detailed explanations of the achievements to be done, accompanied by console commands and screenshots for some additional details.

Feel free to add comments or advice. I hope it will be clear and detailed enough !

Before starting, read this section carefully !

First of all, you should know that achievements are only unlocked during your first match once you have launched the game.

So, after each categories, you will have to restart the game. Keep this in mind !

Another thing I recommend you, is to disable cloud saving : having to restart the game all the time will allow you to not have to wait for cloud synchronization every time.

And I would like to add that my intention is not to copy or appropriate the work of others.
I created this guide only to save people wanting to get this 100% from having to search for hours how to do it with bots and the console.

I also want to link two guides that helped me understand the different achievements and to fix some issues. I recommend you to check them and rate them aswell !

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2061508472

To do this, go to the options then to the “Game” tab and set “Enable Console” to “On”.

And I remind you, if you checked the other guides I linked before, it’s really important to set the “Match Type” on “Internet” ! You will also need to set the “Maximum Players” at “24” (the maximum).

Then select the map and the type of match on the left.

Select these settings :

• Game Type : Duel
• Map / Arena : Railyard (or whatever you like)
• Match Type : Internet

Before you go “Ready”, enter this into the console (you can copy/paste) :

fraglimit 1; g_damage_g 500; addbot crash 1 red

Now, you just need to kill the bot with the Gauntlet.

Reminder : Restart the game if you already done a match.

Select these settings :

• Game Type : Duel
• Map / Arena : Railyard (or whatever you like)
• Match Type : Internet

Before you go “Ready”, enter this into the console :

fraglimit 1; bot_gauntletOnly 1; g_startingHealth 1; g_startingWeapons 32; addbot crash 1 red

Now, wait until you reach 1 HP and kill the bot with the Railgun (you should have it from the start). Be careful, during this time the bot will only have the gauntlet and he will try to kill you.

For Training Rooms, there are 2 ways to simplify them.

The first method is to try doing them and entering the following command when you need to make big jumps :

g_gravity 100

And type this command when you’re done (to make it default) :

g_gravity 800

But there is another way to do all the training achievements very quickly and very easily, thanks to developer mode !

Type this in the console :

devmap qztraining duel

Click “Join Match”, then follow Crash until she reaches the hallway and starts talking, now enter the following command and fly to the end of the hallway :

g_speed 1000; noclip

When you reach the last portal behind the closed gate, at the end of the hallway, type the next command and go through the portal :

g_speed 320; noclip

Now you can skip the tutorial (with “F3” by default) and, only when the match start (AFTER THE TIMING) type the next command and you should kill Crash with the machinegun just 1 time :

god; g_damage_mg 500; fraglimit 1

Type this in the console :

devmap qzpractice1 duel

Click “Join Match”, type the next command and you should just fly and get to the ending platform of each hallway :

g_speed 1000; noclip

When you reach the last platform, type the next command (You must hear the sound of the Trumpet before entering the portal ! So when you are on the end platform, try to walk to the beginning of it to get the achievement)

g_speed 320; noclip

Type this in the console :

devmap qzpractice2 duel

Click “Join Match”, type the next command and you should just fly and get to the ending platform of each hallway :

g_speed 1000; noclip

When you reach the last platform, type the next command (You must hear the sound of the Trumpet before entering the portal ! So when you are on the end platform, try to walk to the beginning of it to get the achievement)

g_speed 320; noclip

Reminder : Restart the game if you already done a match.

Select these settings :

• Game Type : Clan Arena
• Map / Arena : Railyard or Courtyard (or whatever you like)
• Match Type : Internet

Before you go “Ready”, enter this into the console and join the Blue team :

roundlimit 2; g_startingWeapons 11; g_infiniteAmmo 1; g_damage_mg 1; g_damage_gl 500; g_damage_g 500; g_speed 640; addbot ranger 1 blue; addbot ranger 1 blue; addbot crash 1 red; addbot crash 1 red; addbot crash 1 red

Then, only when you get into the match (at the beginning of the round), enter this into the console :

kick ranger; kick ranger

You should be in 1v3. Now, you will have to do 2 rounds :

• 1st round: kill everyone with the Grenade Launcher (you should have it)
• 2nd round: kill everyone with the Gauntlet (press “1” to equip)

Reminder : Restart the game if you already done a match.

Select these settings :

• Game Type : Harvester
• Map / Arena : Railyard (will be easier on this map)
• Match Type : Internet

Before you go “Ready”, enter this into the console :

g_speed 640; bot_gauntletOnly 1; g_startingWeapons 3; g_damage_g 1; g_damage_mg 500; g_damage_rg 500; g_infiniteAmmo 1; addbot crash 1 red

Now go to the center of the map and you should see the item in the screenshot below.
The only thing you need to do is kill the robot and get a skull near this item each time (sometimes it doesn’t appear). When you have stacked 3 of them, go to the enemy base (you will see a logo behind the walls) and it will drop your skulls.

Reminder : Restart the game if you already done a match.

Select these settings :

• Game Type : Domination
• Map / Arena : Courtyard (or whatever you like)
• Match Type : Internet

Before you go “Ready”, enter this into the console :

g_speed 640; addbot crash 1 red

Now you just have to capture 3 control points and just wait 30 seconds.

Reminder : Restart the game if you already done a match.

Select these settings :

• Game Type : Attack & Defend
• Map / Arena : Railyard or Courtyard (or whatever you like)
• Match Type : Internet

Before you go “Ready”, enter this into the console and join the Blue team :

g_speed 500; bot_gauntletOnly 1; g_damage_g 1; g_startingWeapons 3; g_damage_mg 500; scorelimit 6; addbot ranger 1 blue; addbot ranger 1 blue; addbot crash 1 red; addbot crash 1 red; addbot crash 1 red;

Then, only when you get into the match (at the beginning of the round), enter this into the console :

kick ranger; kick ranger

You should be in 1v3. Now, you will have to do 4 rounds. I recommend you to press “K” (Self Kill) when you are in Defense round. And then you will have to do 2 Attack rounds :

• 1st Attack round : kill everyone WITHOUT touching the ennemy Flag.
• 2nd Attack round : DON’T shoot or kill anyone. Take the enemy flag and bring it back to your base.

Reminder : Restart the game if you already done a match.

Select these settings :

• Game Type : Free For All
• Map / Arena : Space Chamber (Important !)
• Match Type : Internet

For this achievement you don’t need to use the console, just need to go at a specific place in this map.

So first try to reach this place on the screenshot below. Then go along the wall in the little platform below the crosshair on the same screenshot.

All you have to do now is take the silver skull (it’s the Kamikaze Item) and find the bot, then click on the “Mouse 3” (middle button) or press “Enter”.

“Kaaabooom !”

Reminder : Restart the game if you already done a match.

Select these settings :

• Game Type : Free Far All
• Map / Arena : Warehouse (Important !)
• Match Type : Internet

Before you go “Ready”, enter this into the console :

fraglimit 1000; timelimit 100; g_damage_g 500; g_startingWeapons 19; g_infiniteAmmo 1

Then type the following command few times (until it say “Unable to add bot” in red) :

addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1

So let’s start ! You will have to do a few actions with the Quad Damage :

• First : Notice where the Quad Damage is and don’t take the other Power-up.
• When you heard “Quad Damage”, a bot took it. Come and kill him with the Gauntlet.
• If you didn’t got Bandit achievement, try to stay close to the Quad Damage and take it when a bot is really close to it.
• After that, you just need to do 10 kills with the Quad Damage.

When you have done all this, all you have to do is get the second Power-up : the Battle Suit.

Simply go to the location indicated in the screenshot below. Place yourself below the platform on the crosshair in the screenshot and fire with the rocket launcher at your feet (without jumping). You should be propelled to the height of the platform.

Now, go get the Battle Suit and pay attention to the laser wall next to it.

Reminder : Restart the game if you already done a match.

Select these settings :

• Game Type :
• Map / Arena : Railyard or Courtyard (or whatever you like)
• Match Type : Internet

Before you go “Ready”, enter this into the console :

bot_gauntletonly 1; g_damage_g 1; g_damage_rl 500; g_damage_sg 500; g_infiniteAmmo 1; fraglimit 999; timelimit 99; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; g_regenHealth 1; g_regenHealthRate 1

As soon as the match starts, go to this place and use the thruster.

Here the enemies will only come from where you came. So stick your back to the wall and prepare your crosshair in the air.

You will need :

• 5 Midair Frags with the Shotgun
• 25 Midair Frags with the Rocket Launcher

Advices

• If you are confident you can add more bots by entering the following command: addbot crash 1
• If you find yourself surrounded by bots, don’t panic, you must regenerate your HP. Take the shotgun and clean up, because the rocket launcher can propel you into the void !

Reminder : Restart the game if you already done a match.

Select these settings :

• Game Type : Free For All
• Map / Arena : Railyard (easier on this map)
• Match Type : Internet

Before you go “Ready”, enter this into the console :

bot_gauntletOnly 1; g_damage_g 500; g_damage_mg 500; g_damage_rg 500; g_infiniteAmmo 1; g_startingWeapons 67; addbot crash 1

Now let the bot kill you 3 times, then kill the bot 1 time to receive the Revenge Medal. You just have to do it again until you reach 100 Revange Medals.

This map is one of the smallest I found and you must be equipped with a machinegun and a railgun which will both one-shot the bot.

But be careful, keep your distance when you have to kill the bot because it will also shoot you with the gauntlet !

Reminder : Restart the game if you already done a match.

Select these settings :

• Game Type : Free For All
• Map / Arena : Space CTF (Important !)
• Match Type : Internet

Before you go “Ready”, enter this into the console :

fraglimit 100; timelimit 100; g_damage_g 500; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1

Let’s start with the hardest part : Air Hammer achievement.

Just follow a bot VERY closely and jump on a springboard at the same time as it and try to kill it with the gauntlet. It will take several tries but on this map and with the command above, you should get there pretty quickly.

After that all you have to do is make at least 5 frags in this same match and continue until you reach 50 frags with the Gauntlet for the Fight Club achievement.

Advice

If you are not comfortable on this map to finish the 50 frags, you can restart a game with the same console command on another map you like (once Air Hammer achievement is done of course !)

Reminder : Restart the game if you already done a match.

Select these settings :

• Game Type : Free For All
• Map / Arena : Railyard or Courtyard (or whatever you like)
• Match Type : Internet

Before you go “Ready”, enter this into the console :

g_speed 600; g_infiniteAmmo 1; g_startingWeapons 3; bot_gauntletOnly 1; g_damage_mg 500; g_damage_g 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1

Now run forward and kill a bot. If that doesn’t work, try jumping forward several times and killing a bot mid-jump.

Reminder : Restart the game if you already done a match.

Select these settings :

• Game Type : Capture the Flag
• Map / Arena : Railyard or Courtyard
• Match Type : Internet

Before you go “Ready”, enter this into the console :

g_speed 640; bot_gauntletOnly 1; g_damage_g 1; capturelimit 1; addbot crash 1 red

Run to the enemy base, take the flag and bring it back to your base. Gg ez !

Reminder : Restart the game if you already done a match.

Select these settings :

• Game Type :
• Map / Arena : Railyard or Courtyard (or whatever you like)
• Match Type : Internet

Before you go “Ready”, enter this into the console :

g_speed 640; capturelimit 100; timelimit 100; addbot crash 1 red; addbot crash 1 red; addbot crash 1 red; addbot crash 1 red; addbot crash 1 red; addbot ranger 1 blue; addbot ranger 1 blue; addbot ranger 1 blue; addbot ranger 1 blue; g_infiniteAmmo 1

Do what you want : Capture, Frags, Defense… But pay attention to your score (Press “Tab” to check it): try to get to score 666. If you exceed it, use the “K” key ( self kill) to lower the score by 1 point each time.

Once the desired score is reached, enter the following console command (this will end the game):

timelimit 1

Reminder : Restart the game if you already done a match.

Select these settings :

• Game Type : Capture the Flag
• Map / Arena : Railyard (easier on this map)
• Match Type : Internet

Before you go “Ready”, enter this into the console :

g_speed 500; timelimit 200; capturelimit 100; g_damage_rg 500; g_damage_mg 1; g_infiniteAmmo 1; g_regenHealth 1; g_regenHealthRate 1; addbot crash 1 red

Important : for this match, use the Railgun !

Start by completing the Miracle Maker Achievement, if you haven’t done it before: stay close to the enemy flag (don’t take it) and wait for the bot to take your flag and bring it back. As soon as he gets within about 1 meter of his flag, kill him. The announcer should shout, “Holy Sh*t!”
It doesn’t matter if you don’t succeed on the first try, you only need 2 to achieve the achievement.

Before continuing, kill the bot close enough to his base at least 3 times (or less if you done the Miracle Maker in the same match) to get 3 Defense Medals for Full House & Trifecta Achievements.

Now, you will have to follow a certain method :

• Go to the enemy base and stay in front of the flag (don’t take it yet)
• As soon as the bot has taken your flag (this will be announced), take the flag and kill the bot
• Pass over your flag to collect it and drop off the enemy flag at your base !

After that you should get “Capture” and “Assist“. If this is indeed the case, you just have to do this again until you reach 100 Capture and Assist medals.

Reminder : Restart the game if you already done a match.

Select these settings :

• Game Type :
• Map / Arena : Railyard or Courtyard (or whatever you like)
• Match Type : Internet

Before you go “Ready”, enter this into the console :

g_speed 640; capturelimit 100; timelimit 100; bot_gauntletOnly 1; g_damage_g 1; g_damage_mg 500; g_infiniteAmmo 1; g_startingWeapons 3; g_regenHealth 1; g_regenHealthRate 1

Then type the following command few times (until it say “Unable to add bot” in red) :

addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1

Then, at the start of the match (after the game start countdown), go to the Admin Settings and select each “Crash” Bots and move them to the opposing team (if you are on the Blue team, move them everyone on the Red team).

All you have to do is to take your machinegun, stay in your base and wait until the bots, which should be running at you, are close enough to your base to kill them and reach the 1,000 CTF Medals (with more than 100 Defense Medals aswell).

When you spawn, you can turn around, enter the small hallway, and stay in the left corner. After that you just have to put your crosshair at the left of the door and make something to shoot non-stop (macro, hammer on your mouse, like you want haha)

Don’t worry you have a huge regeneration, you will not die. And to make things more crazy, you can also type this command into the console and watch this speeeed !

g_speed 10000

Enjoy !

Reminder : Restart the game if you already done a match.

Select these settings :

• Game Type : Free For All
• Map / Arena : Courtyard (Important !)
• Match Type : Internet

Before you go “Ready”, enter this into the console :

g_speed 640; bot_gauntletOnly 1; g_damage_g 1; g_startingWeapons 83; g_damage_mg 500; g_damage_rl 500; g_damage_rg 500; g_infiniteAmmo 1; timelimit 200; fraglimit 10000; g_regenHealth 1; g_regenHealthRate 1

Then type the following command few times (until it say “Unable to add bot” in red) :

addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1; addbot crash 1

Here is the final match !

You should only be left with achievements relating to frags (and complete matches for the next section).

In this match, you regenerate instantly, the bots will run at you like like for “CTF ~ Last Match” and you should have a Rocket Launcher, a Railgun and a Machinegun with Unlimited Ammo !

All you have to do is farm what you need !

• Excellent Medals : Double Kills, you can spam kills non-stop, you will got it each 2 kills.
• Impressive Medals : Two Consecutive hits with the Railgun (with the Idle Way it’s easy !)
• 500 Frags using the Rocket Launcher
• Reach 10,000 kills !

I recommend using the same Idle method as before and I’ll give it to you below.

When you spawn, you can turn around, enter the small hallway, and stay in the left corner. After that you just have to put your crosshair at the left of the door and make something to shoot non-stop (macro, hammer on your mouse, like you want haha)

Don’t worry you have a huge regeneration, you will not die. And to make things more crazy, you can also type this command into the console and watch this speeeed !

g_speed 10000

Enjoy !

Reminder : Restart the game if you already done a match.

Select these settings :

• Game Type : Free Far All
• Map / Arena : Doesn’t Matter at all !
• Match Type : Internet

We are finally at the end of this guide ! Only one last farm to do, but unfortunately the longest… Annnnd you can leave it running in the background 😉

Before you go “Ready”, enter this into the console :

sv_warmupReadyPercentage 0; g_doWarmup 0; g_warmup 0

Now you just have to press “Ready” and Alt-Tab or do something else during the farm. It will take between 8 and 9 hours to reach the 1,000 matches completed. Check your game from time to time, because an internet disconnection or a map loading can lead to an error and you will have to restart the game and restart a game.

Important : When it’s finished, type this into the console to set the default settings (because this is saved when you restart the game)

sv_warmupReadyPercentage 0.51; g_doWarmup 1; g_warmup 10

I hope this guide has been useful to you.

I spent several days testing the commands, writing this guide and proofreading it. So don’t hesitate to Rate it and give an Award for this one, it will encourage me to continue !

Feel free to comment if anything should be changed or if something doesn’t work.

Good luck with your Achievement Hunt !
