    Broken Achievements in Xbox Published Games


    I wonder why so many different games that are Published by Xbox Game Studios, have broken Achievements. I have played now 23 games and from that pretty much every game I played that is Published by Xbox has at least 1 buggy. While can not remember so issues with other games, outside the obvious discontinued because of closed servers.

    Forza Horizon 4, has on TrueAchievements standing 1 Discontinued and further "Known to be Buggy" at Game Information. This is the Encore Achievement. But it is rather broken (as I read on the internet, for the 3rd time), since Seasons itself where it is linked to, is still active. You get stuck on 94% and so not be able to get the 100% requirement it needs. Also on the known issues page, it is listed at both: "Still Investigating" and "Won't Be Fixed". So what is it?

    Forza Horizon 5 on TA, has 2 of the new Achievements that are unobtainable at the moment and I also like everyone, has this issue. And heard people, that did "Min Meet Max" (TA has it also as Buggy), that somehow people did not get it. The funny thing is, it is the same as Encore in FH4. Get 100% in Seasonal progress.

    Microsoft Flight Simulator, lot of players including me having issues with losing progression, when exiting the game and seeing several periods that people complain about it. The newest period is since the Top Gun update. No availability of Weekly Activities, while having 2 Achievements linked to it. It had several other issues in the past. Wrong marked airport in balkan bushtrip, auto-pilot miles.

    Sea of Thieves, I have issues with unlocking doing a Voyage for Merchants. Have done several, be lvl 20 to them and have Emissionary Flag and did even then. Also in the achievement list on TA, enough are maked as buggy at this game.

    Grounded, marked as buggy at Game Info at TA. But it is still Preview, so oke.

    Other games are NBA 2K22 and Battlefield 2042, I so remember. So from the 7 games, 5 are published by Xbox.

    The only game I do not have issues with, that is Xbox group now, is Fallout 76, but that was released prior to being part of Xbox and everybody knows the rocky start. But gladfully knew to turn it around with 76. So 5 from the 6 games that I play that fall under the Xbox group, I have issues with Achievements.

    I demand to have my Xbox One game achievement fixed.

    I can tell you that there's lots of games and achievements out there that are broken and no one will ever fix them, sad to say. It has to do with time and money and the developer/publisher not caring enough to fix what they never got working, citing costs.
    Right or wrong, that's how it is.

    Questions about ethics and gaming

    I had to look this game up. And now, I am with with you Broken Link, if this is not impossible to beat, then it is so hard that in practical terns it is impossible.

    I found this at TA (trueachievements)

    https://www.trueachievements.com/a279501/alien-bane-achievement?gamerid=313138

    Now a lot of the guys at TA are hardcore achievement hunters, working hard to get some of the most challenging achievements on Xbox

    The only guide for beating it was basically a guy saying good luck. One of this games achievements have over 500 TA users who have unlocked it, but the final boss achievement has ZERO. No one at TA can beat this game. That is as good as impossible in my
    opinion if no one over there can unlock it

    As for who can fix this, it is up to the makers; Born Lucky Games (Published by Klabater). And that is assuming the publishers see it as a problem, maybe they wanted it to be this hard. That would be a dumb idea IMO, but could be the case. Many old games
    were designed to be impossible to beat. I heard about a shmup in the early days of games that if you beat it, it would start you back at the start of the game but make it harder, and if you beat that, you had to play it without a visual display.

    Now for a game to be permitted to be sold and published on Xbox they have to go through certification, but I think that process is just to make sure nothing is published that will contain malware or have and tech issues that might harm the hardware. I don't
    think there are any requirements for publishers to make a beatable game, so not much Xbox themselves can do about it.

    Phoenix Point on PC gamepass

    My question is how can i trust that a starting a game on gamepass wont blow up my gamecard?

    Achievements are a concept beholden and guarded by Microsoft, dont they have a duty to ensure the games they publish have integrity in this regard?

    Yes i play many games on gamepass and its rare for them to be so broken. My question is what Microsoft does about it??
