Many gamers have been reporting that their actions are only unlocking some achievements but not others. One such disgruntled player claimed that their  “1,000 kill achievement is slowly ticking over but I had 3 top 10 games today and fully boosted with meds but neither have registered” . It’s worth noting that these glitches are separate from the earlier Xbox Live problems that have since apparently been cleared up. According to GameRant, the problem doesn’t extend to all achievements, as some of them unlocked immed
