Question About Achievements

zebatov · Jan 31, 2017

I unlocked some achievements on my Windows Phone when I wasn't connected to the internet. They don't seem to be updating in my games list. Does anyone have any idea why this might be happening? I connected my phone to the internet in hopes it would update,
but it doesn't seem to be working. Any help would be greatly appreciated! I bought a Windows Phone so I could record and keep track of my achievements, so it would be nice if it worked the way it should!

Question about achievements

Awhile ago I had this game for the 360 (2-3 months ago), I got about 6 achievements in the 360 version. I got an xbox one and got Horizon 2 yesterday. I got to the Horizon festival, but that achievement for getting to the festival didn't unlock so I'm
guessing there's some transfer issue between the games, but other than that idk what to do. So I'm just asking here if it's an issue or if I need to do something to get them to pop.

Thanks

I have had cheevos unlock 3 months later as well. Mine was on a different game but it seems to be a issue

Unfortunately, I don't think it has anything to do with your internet connection. I don't think that the achievements for phone games count towards overall Gamerscore anymore. I too am still using a W10M device (950) and have unlocked several achievements
over the last few months but not only have the points not been added to my score, but the games don't even show up in my list of games played. I think Microsoft is quietly phasing out the last exclusive feature of WP/W10M.

Tat's really terrible news. I don't really have use for the Windows Phone anymore, I guess. Pretty sure you can get XBL on other OS... and if not, no big deal. The worst part is, it was on a game that DID register in my achievements list before... So now
I have 160/200 showing in my games list on XBL, but on my phone it is showing 200/200. I wonder if this is a W10 issue. Can anyone confirm that it will/won't work if I load up the game on a W8.1 phone? ie Lumia 1020?

Hey guys. I was just playing Rayman Origins on my Xbox One, and I opened the achievements menu up, and the game in question, Oregon Trail, actually did update there to the full 200/200. So it seems that for some reason the WP10 achievements just aren't linked
to the achievement app on Xbox One. Which is strange, because I thought Xbox One's OS was very similar to Windows 10. At least, much different than Xbox 360. So, your overall gamerscore on Xbox One should increase, while it may not (probably will
not, since all three of us have tested it, to no avail) update your games list. I would have found this out earlier, but for some reason, when my Xbox One attempted to gather my Xbox 360 game data when I tried to play this one (Rayman) a while ago, it kept
failing. Hope this can help someone else. Is it possible to sticky this thread or at least bring it to Microsoft/Xbox's attention?

Just wanted to throw my hat into this ring as well. I just unlocked some achievement on a Windows 7.5 game (I know, right, that's just insane) and no Windows 7.5 games show on Xbox.com anymore it seems, but my achievement list for Xbox 360 did update as
did my overall gamerscore. What's weird though is when I look at the game itself inside of the guide it still shows un-updated so that's very strange. I wonder what's going on.

Hello. I unlocked some achievements on my Xbox one in game.

I think generally they recommend creating a new thread for new issues. For your case, I would recommend unlocking a new achievement in that game to get that data to refresh.

I don't think you can unlock achievements offline on the xbox one. The console was designed from the very beginning to be used online exclusively. Offline features were only added after the initial U-turn caused by the uproar when xbox one was first announced.
I don't think they fixed achievements so they can be unlocked offline though

As my colleague stated achievements are kept by account. You both can share the console and have separate accounts, so do so! You can add his account to the home console.

As far as deleting the achievements he added to your account, you can't. Your account is your identification. Don't share it for so many reasons, family or not. He can still play the games on the home console, but your tracking and access to things like messages
and money will be separate.

I can't stress how important this is. There is nothing anyone can do if you share accounts. You are liable for his actions and they can get the account banned even! You don't want that risk!

Hi, no, Achievements are tied to whatever profile unlocked them and are permanent.
