Earning Achievements to games I've never played.

CorbynFry · May 13, 2021

I'll make this as simple as I can. A week or so ago a received a message on my Xbox app that I unlocked an achievement for devil may cry. I've never played a DMC game and it's not installed on my XSX, my old 1X that my son uses, or my PC. So I say **** some one got into my account, and I re-enable two-factor authentication and reinstall the mobile auth app, then change my password. Think cool all good. Then it happens again so I dig deeper and scroll through all the sign-in attempts on the security page and I see nothing out of the ordinary and by that hundreds if not thousands of failed attempts but no successful logins I didn't recognize. To further my confusion there are no devices I don't recognize and yet I keep slowly increasing my gamer score with this one weird trick. I'm at a loss still sightly worried I've been compromised despite locking it down.

If you look in your microsoft acccount, you can see where logins have come from. You should secures it with two favor authentication and/or MS Authenticator

it could also be a glitch. Achievements are server side.

Hello, regarding your case I will need you to first try changing your password and updating your security information. After that please try removing all devices that you do not recognize from your account.

They're not showing properly on my XBox.com profile either.

Since it's easier to look at my XBox.com profile and see which of the achievements I've earned from the affected games that I'm getting proper credit for, I've taken a look a couple of times and funny enough, among the ones I get proper credit for with DoA4
is the 10 hours played achievement, and among the ones I'm not getting proper credit for is the 5-hours played achievement. Obviously I can't have the former without the latter.

On one of the other affected games, I've earned two new achievements, and it's still not giving proper credit for all the achievements earned. On DoA4, I think I've earned just about all the achievements I'm likely to earn already.

Can you describe this a bit more? I've never heard of potential gamerscore.

Would it be the potential for yourself? For instance, if you earned every achievement for every game you've played.

Or highest possible gamerscore in general across every game?
