Kommaranda 44 Posted November 19, 2019 Hey could you consider deleting the unobtainable steam achievements like the ones from 2014 winter event and such? 3 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vsb 6174 Posted November 19, 2019 how will they compensate the people who currently have completed these achievements? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkittyM 287 Posted November 19, 2019 Just now, Solamente said: how will they compensate the people who currently have completed these achievements? They wouldn't. For what its worth, the achievements are always there, just hidden from view... Because Reloaded Reasons. Honestly though, they genuinely don't belong on steam unless you redo them so they are instead something you can get every year. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steam achievements are supposed to be obtainable always, and these are unobtainable. Which since it's on steam, it means you can't 100% the game if you didnt participate in an event that took place 5 years ago... I like 100%ing the games I have 2k+ hours on, and it kinda sucks that I cant do that for APB. so yeah rip 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeadPixels 253 Posted November 19, 2019 Considering that this event takes place every year, it sure wouldn't be hard to change them so they would be obtainable 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If... say you knew someone that has the "2014" achievements and your steam account was logged in when he logged into his apb account It would unlock them for both parties. Which I'm sure is also illegal. Just a fun fact. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Temporal 21 Posted November 19, 2019 There was a time when APB was only game i had 100% done... and then they added those stupid event achievs... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kommaranda 44 Posted November 19, 2019 Good to see i am not the only one wanting those fancy 100% Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mitne 724 Posted November 19, 2019 I got almost all roles, Steam didn't count all of them anyway. Steam part of APB overall don't get much love in my opinion. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because Reloaded Reasons. Honestly though, they genuinely don't belong on steam unless you redo them so they are instead something you can get every year. Alot of games have hidden achievements. TF2, Destiny 2, L4D 1 and 2, LP2 oh and there are other games on steam with achievements you cant get anymore. Firefall (when it was around) L4D 2, and the youtube achievements on TF2 are impossible unless you have a following. Oh and Xbox live has hidden achievements too. All in all this is normal practice that wont be going away. On 11/19/2019 at 12:40 AM, Goldtiger said: Steam achievements are supposed to be obtainable always, and these are unobtainable.

Diff names with diff rewards so unless the ones from yrs past all get changed its too little too late. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In APBs case, you literally wont even know about the achievement until you some how obtain it. That' wasn't my point on achievements being hidden at all however, the point was that since they exist in APB themselves, there's no point in them being on steam, you can not obtain them in any way on your own account, so they simply shouldn't exist on steam as there's absolutely no way to unlock them. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ExoticZ 131 Posted November 21, 2019 They wont remove unobtainable achievements. These were available for people playing around a certain time. Although, I do believe some achievements on Steam are bugged. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At one point they were obtainable and for those who got them they show. Those who worked hard and got them should be able to have them and for those who werent around the only way to get them is if LO resurrects the event that was used to obtain them. Its something that isnt impossible to do, its all up to if LO wants to do it or not and give the chance to get them again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The achievements themselves are coded to unlock under certain conditions, the condition requirement for all of the old hidden achievements is Null so they're literally unobtainable except for the Anarchy achievements. It's far more logical to just get rid of them entirely or merge them into a year round achievement set. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It could if LO brings it back hence how it would still be possible to get them. As for halloween under G1 we both know there messed up on steam and LO isnt coding them to pop up on steam with the new achievements, hell they didnt even show in game this yr. As for prior events its a case of too little too late but future ones who knows what LO will do but adding new achievements into APB and steam would give us all something to work for and a reason to play more.
