Might be glitched, but never heard of it having any problems popping. Try clearing your cache and then re downloading the update and win a match on each game type again.

Edit: Cleaned up solution with "fancy" formatting that I didn't really know how to use when I originally posted this solution
This is a good way to get multiple achievements in one session.
This method will get 6-8 people the following achievements:
"Around the World"(ATW)
Don't Hate the Player"(DHTP)
"Mix it Up"(MIU)
"Can't Touch Me"(CTM)
way back when I got these achievements this is how the leader of the session had us go and I'm surprised this wasn't out here before so here is what I think is the best way to knock out multiple achievements in as short of time as possible.
(IMPORTANT!!! have the same people on the same teams though out the session i.e. if you were on COG for the first match stay on COG for the whole time and vise versa. This way everyone on COG will get "CTM" at the same time they get "ATW" then start over and let the Locust team do the same thing)
(Also note that if anyone needs "DHTP" that you can easily get this if you are on the team that is supposed to win, make sure to get all the kills for one match, then trade off next match until everyone has "DHTP")
1st run-though: "COG" run-though
Have someone start hosting 1 round games. I will go in alphabetical order of maps and game types but you can do them in any order as long as you catch them all. First start an Assassination match on Canals, meet in the middle and have 1 member of the COG team get all the kills to win the match (this person will get "DHTP"). Start the next match as Execution on Clocktower and have the COG team win again (switch who is killing if everyone needs "DHTP"). Start the Third match as a Warzone match on Escalation. (Everyone on COG team should get "MIU" at this point). Continue with whatever gametype you want (Assassination might be slightly quicker) for the matches on the remaining maps (Fuel Depot, Gridlock, Mansion, Mausoleum, Rooftops, Tyro Station, War Machine) at the end of the War Machine match everyone on Cog should get "ATW" and "CTM"
2nd run-though: "Locust" run-though
(make sure you keep the same teams)
This should go exactly the same as the COG run-though but for the Locust team.
Summary:
everyone can get "Around the World"(ATW), Don't Hate the Player"(DHTP), "Mix it Up"(MIU), and "Can't Touch Me"(CTM) in (20) 1 round matches.

You must be on the winning team in each of the three original gametypes: Execution, Warzone, and Assassination. Annex does not count.
