Those challenges that were put up and taken down; they weren’t supposed to be put up, and is a simple human error, however, for the rest of it, I mostly agree with you. There is a chance the achievements will automatically pop at a later time. I’ve had similar happen to me in the past. Fingers crossed that we haven’t all wasted hours on these two achievements.
It is an issue with the xbox live servers. The xbox live status said so. I can not check at the moment but it was on the xbox.com status earlier.
It is not a forza issue, it is an xbox live issue. I have had it before with other games. The ach will unlock when the xbox live server issue is sorted and you sign out and I again.
Edit: when the status says social and gaming it does often affect achievements. It has for me in 3 games when it has said that.
There is asolutely ZERO people who have this.
There is an issue with Forza in that there are no badges/titles associated with these two challenges.
If this was due to XBL downtime, most would be able to unlock it, some would not. In this case, there is not a single person.
Okay, as far as I know that site tracks only registered users, but there are several Forza 5 players and one should have unlocked it by now if the error was caused by the xbox live problems earlier on.
I, too, think, it’s caused by the missing badges ingame. So Turn 10 has to fix this.
I am not sure why the Prague is not popping but the Bounty Hunter won’t pop til the end of the month, so maybe they got some wires crossed and we won’t get the Prague til then to(or maybe after the event is closed). Not really a big deal and if you feel you wasted your time just because you didn’t get a badge/title perhaps it’s time you move on to another activity that does give you enjoyment.
“One, beat the time I set by the end of the day today, by the end of the month to earn your badge and title” Link to RVM News - Forza
That basically means to earn it by the end of the month and you will get it upon doing it.
Waiting until the end of the month has nothing to do with it. It should unlock right now, but it doesn’t.
You’re right, its not going to just randomly appear later on. The badge+title that we didn’t get sure won’t either, and that’s whats preventing the unlock in the first place.
You are making a big deal about nothing I raced it because I like to race and it was fun. I have so many badges/titles I don’t know what to do with them and could care less about getting them this month. Either way if you are right or they are right who cares it’s just a badge/title. Telling people they should not buy anymore Turn 10 products is childish, just because you don’t like it.
Also I’m sorry you had someone crashing you for the last 40 mins and almost didn’t make the miles, but I was taken out(totaled) 4 times in the first 30 min and 3 times in the last 30 min, took a 10 min smoke break with 45 remaining and still hit 167 miles in B class.
Wrong. If you beat the time he sets today, by the end of the month you get the title/badge. You could beat it today tomorrow etc and get the title or badge right when you beat him. He says IF you beat his fastest time and are ahead of him still, while he improves, by the end of the month you will get an extra worthy credit reward.
Here is why I think it isn’t unlocking for anyone:
There is no badge or title available to unlock, so no challenge achievements are awarded.
There needs to be a badge and title first in order to unlock it.
There is not even a ‘Locked’ space for them, just nothing.
Turn10 needs to update these challenges into the game, and then we try to earn them.
Hopefully that is the case.
If it was locked at 100%, it will unlock some days later…
But this time is a bit different. The challenge says 0% even when you do it right.
I feel there is no record that the game knows anything was accomplished.
Maybe what I mentioned before is the reason it doesn’t unlock.
Titles/Badges for the challenges are not present yet.
It’s not a matter of failed unlocks, the game doesn’t see anything being achieved without the titles/badges being awarded.
I noticed this with whenever achievements/challenges are unlocked:
-You earn the title+badge first
-Achievement is awarded afterwards
But, I didn’t make the game, it’d be nice to get an official statement from TURN10 ALREADY.
WHY AREN’T THEY SAYING ANYTHING.
I just want to chime in and say that as of yet mine have NOT popped for Endurance or Bounty. Not only that, but the Prague Endurance Hopper is now gone, so I couldn’t even take a THIRD attempt at it if I wanted to. So that sucks. As I’ve said repeatedly: thank goodness I didn’t pay anything for this game, now I know not to.
Think some of you guys need to relax a bit. I’ve never not received an achievement that I completed in FM5. Yes, some of them took a day or two to show up … but they always have.
I love this game … but … after an afternoon of being crashed into literally every race, an evening of all friends showing offline and communication problems (yes yes xboxlive, also microsoft), i was finally happy to find myself at night in a great lobby without crashers in Prague (a first in an endurance challenge!). but not for long : no achievement or badge at the end. Let"s face it, the badge is the only reason to meet the challenge, so another waste of time. Free Forza for gold members? a great way to learn to know Forza. Also a nice welcome for a lot of Europeans who had to wait until today to buy an xboxone in their own country.
Add this up to all the other problems ( kicked to startscreen, laggy gamechat, not enough space to save setups, the ability to make major cuts (oh Yas), wallriding the Alps, …) and i am beginning to think this is just a one way love…
