yugular Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Does Steam achievements work in offline mode? Or do they pop up when you go back online? Or does it ruin the achievement if you happen to play offline when you get it? cheers yugular Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nottingham Forest Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 I don't think they work in offline mode. So if you get an achievement in offline mode and then sign in, it won't work. You have to be signed in all the time when playing FM to get them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems really stupid, it shouldn't be too hard to implement into offline gaming/ even make the game check achievement status each time you log online.

AcidBurn Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Two of the achievements do not work at all the scouting knowledge one I think it is and the continental one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krald Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 You have to be connected to steam, as it's a case of "achievement earned" then instantly sent to steam, presumably to try and stop people "cheating" it I suppose. I don't know, but either way, they're not just stored ready to send. That said, you can "appear offline" and still send, but you have to be connected otherwise.

Lem Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Two of the achievements do not work at all the scouting knowledge one I think it is and the continental one. Seriously? You mean my hard work to get to 73% is for nothing? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcidBurn Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 If you look at the global achievements it says that zero percent of players have done that one despite me knowing a few people that have over 80 percent let alone 75. I have also won in one save every continents Champions League I never once switched off steam yet the continental challenge is still not achieved by anyone at all. Also worth noting it is strange that only 87.6 percent of people who played FM scored a goal, unless the others just switched off before their first match and never played again.

leumd Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 I can confirm that it is possible to get achievements offline and then have them awarded to your account once you reconnect. I achieved promotion during an off-line session, saved my game and quit. At a later date I went online in Steam and signed back in. I checked my achievements and I had the one for my promotion, so it is possible at least for that one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pangaea Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 What I want to know is why we cannot turn off achievements. Bloody annoying those things are! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
