After 6 years, these videos got me the three thermos I still needed, 11, 23, 83. Unfortunately I had to check every thermos spot except the ones left in Bright Falls Light & Power after 83. Still, finally got them and completed the main game. Onto the DLC!

Followed a collectible guide to the T for chapters 2-6 on my nightmare run. Used this guide for chapter 1 & found 3 I’d missed... Im now at 99/100.

This my last achievement for the base game. Ugh :(

Any idea why the last thermos wouldn't be there for me? Like, I go to the couch but it's definitely not there. Does that mean I already got it, so I missed one of the others? Or do you have to meet some other criteria?

Yup. I started the Nightmare run and just went back over them "all." I missed the very second one.

I was stuck on 99/100 since 2010. Missed the one at the mine museum and found it while working on another cheevo requiring replay of episode 4. Anyway, I also used Rooster Teeth's monumental all collectibles guide and the walk-through here on site. Gave thumbs up! After all, it's 2020 :)

I finally finished with this great game, luckily my last 2 remaining coffee thermoses were in the first chapter. For a moment I thought I would have to take a third walkthrough clap

Ok so I got all chievos including DLC except this one... my OCD is killing me ;(

EDIT (10 minutes later): After watching the videos above I found the missing LAST thermos! There are TWO rusty tractors in Chapter 4 on the way to the farm when you get in the truck - both have a thermos next to them. Now I can sleep tonight, thank you

Probably missed a different one.

I heard checkpoints can effect them as well. I think it’s like: you pass the thermos (or the path to it), and then you hit the next checkpoint. my understanding is that you can’t backtrack and get that thermos after that checkpoint

But I’d say it’s likely you missed a diff one. Like I said I followed guides to the T and still managed to miss one.
My best guess is I backtracked to get one post-checkpoint, and when the thermos wasn’t at the spot I just assumed that it was one I had already grabbed.

But who knows which one that is 😭 lol

Realistically, you cannot follow a video guide or individual item type list for your "collectibles" run through this game. There's just too many things to watch for. You'll need to follow a sequential guide, and it will most likely ruin the experience, but it sucks to miss one of these bad boys and not know which chapter it's in. The thermos bottles collected will NOT show on subsequent runs through the level, or even when backtracking after hitting a safe zone. If you miss any collectibles, they WILL show on subsequent runs through levels (whether replayed or done in a new story run).

Tyger7 has a great walkthrough available in a zipped doc here: http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/showthread.php?t=23...
I recommend using Dropbox or email to send this doc to your iPad/mobile device, so you can play in the dark!

There are 100 thermos bottles.

It's not entirely correct to say "The ones you miss WILL show on another run-through, though."

If you simply replay an episode (main menu -> episodes), the thermoses you've already picked up will not appear.

I followed the guide right down to the last deatil, and am still missing one, I think this may be a little glitchy. I really don't want to have to do a third full play through for one damn thermos.

Stupid damn collectibles in games. Why do the stupid developers do it? why? it's frikkin torture for OCD gamers

Thanks for the link, I really hope I don't miss any thermos. This game has too many collectibles for my liking, would be really nice to finish this game off.

I show 95/100 with all but 4 checked off... I know for a fact I missed one and another is a definite maybe. The other two are ?'s. Still that leaves only 99......... I hate this achievement.

I used Tiger's guide and found that I missed Thermos #75 in Episode 5: Nightlife in Bright Falls. It is very easy to miss as the enemy pops out right before another one attacks the Sheriff. Bottom floor of the Town Hall. No back-tracking once you go back outside.

the problem with this achievement is if you die after picking up a thermos but before a checkpoint, it doesn't count as collected. That'll make you miss some pretty easily if you don't grab them again.

Mecha Werner is right, DON'T pick up the helicopter key until you pick up the thermos in the next room in Episode 5. If you miss, you have to replay the episode (15-20 min gameplay until you reach it) That was my 100th thermos. I followed Rooster Teeth's guide, sometimes i had no idea where is the thermos...

I wish there was a way to see how many thermoses you've picked up/episode. Currently sitting at 99/100 with no idea which one I missed :(
