I've seen posts about people doing quests in different orders to get them all.. I wish someone who got these achievements could actually respond somewhere. It seems weird that only a handful of people are able to unlock it.

From what I have read on steam the developers are aware of the issue and will fix it when they can BUT it could be a while

If you rush the scanner upgrade before completing DB's missions, you might have bricked your save and lose access to the ending of the story and the final sector.

If you're soft locked at this time, you have 2 options:

1 - wait till the game is patched
2 - restart and prevent the glitch

If you wait until a patch, you can technically continue, but there will be a total of four achievements you won't be able to obtain until the patch is released.

(and a patch could be a while as I'm certain it won't be included in the first 2 but could be wrong)

I made the mistake of not changing the difficulty at the beginning, so I think once I hit level 50, I'm going to restart the entire game, change the difficulty, and hopefully go for the last four achievements.

So far, I've got one save that I unlocked everything else on. Started a new save only doing story. I got Red Eddie and Sour Candy to the point of their first joint mission, meltdown I believe. And had already done the scanner quest. At exactly that moment it said to wait for a call from Dusty Bear, but as soon as I left that area it didn't say that anymore. Currently trying different quest variations on a different save. No idea what's causing it.

From what I've read so far after getting the scanner upgrade

dusty will call you after you have done a few jumps normally in the enigma area

BUT I think and again I think

you have to do dusty's jobs first before doing any of the other quests in order for it to not break your game

Yeah, I think I'm giving up and waiting until they fix it. This is pretty ridiculous. No one, across here, steam or reddit can really figure out how anyone really got it. I have too many hours already! Lol white flag officially thrown in!

I finally got mission to trigger doing a long haul from Atlas to Solitude. Had been soft locked for awhile then I got the call.

The trick is not to do any Barrow jobs. I did the first job for Red Eddie and then focused on Sour Candy and Moon Baby jobs. Once you have the scanner from Sour Candy, do the job that involves painting your rig for Red Eddie. After that, concentrate only on Dusty Bear jobs. After his first job, you have to wait for a CB call from him. Just keep going back and forth, warping until he contacts you. Don’t save or visit a shop—just keep warping while you wait to hear from him.

(If you go to convoy in the pause menu and a job has a wait to hear from.that person just keeping going back an forth till time elapses)

Lucylu1983 definitely knows what's up, I finished the game thanks to them! Though hopefully it will be patched soon, because having to do such a long game in a super specific order that's very easy to mess up is crazy!

I did find that even though I had done missions that link to get the next one I had to complete for other people before that linked mission (that wasn't linked to the person I'd recently completed a mission with) would appear.
I also found that if I was waiting for a CB call I would usually get them when doing some long haul missions, not sure if this was coincidence or the fact I did a couple of jumps as mentioned by some of the comments here.

It's been patched.
