I think the best solution is one that was mentioned last playlist. To 100% Gold a season, lower the points needed, every week have one 3pt event as a “throw-away” as a failsafe. So for last week, the Trailblazer Treasure Hunt would be the throw-away, everyone who has completed everything else gets gold.
For Series 1, I would just give everyone a Gold since multiple events did not work as it should like Horizon Arcade. In FH3/4 they did this with the “drive all roads” achievement, they lowered it by 2 I believe to pop. Same can be done here until there is a 100% fix.
The achievement is for the whole series (4 weeks), not for a single season.
The only thing we want to know is if after those 4 weeks we’ll have it unlocked even if we don’t have the Blazing Thunder event from the first week. I swear if they made me do everything else (many hours of grinding through) and it doesn’t unlock I’ll be mad.
This is ridiculous how has there been ZERO Communication from Turn 10 support on this issue.
What’s the result are you gonna give us the 3 points? Gold the Treasure hunt for everyone rewarding it complete?
Maybe start letting us have access to all 4 seasons for the whole month that would be nice so we are not time gated?
I don’t understand how there is not a peep about this anymore
They would send out a hotfix in 1hr if people where getting rewarded Glitched Wheelspins every hour on the hour or imagine how fast it would be fixed if Super Wheelspins where given out every hour…
Any update on this? The last season is coming tomorrow and so far we haven‘t heard anything about a solution for this. Please let us know what‘s the plan moving forward? Is every player awarded with the missing 3 points before series ends. Need to know this as I otherwise can just skip the last season.
This is exactly what I’m talking about. Its bad enough something out of player control impacted a large group of people. Something that is the Developer’s fault, and now they need to keep a solution a mystery? That’s why I don’t believe this is an accident. I think its being done intentionally to keep the achievement hunting crowd around longer. I don’t want to spend hours trying to complete trial events because I get stuck with people who can’t pass AI drivers. But the Developers want to keep you there trying over and over to look like the game is active.
I get it nobody is perfect, developers make mistakes, but they are handling this terribly if this is an honest mistake.
We published the following in our news blog on December 14th:
There won’t be a fix prior to the end of Winter season. I will update the thread if there’s more to announce during the Spring season but at this time I don’t have anything to add.
Thanks for responding. I’m not sure if has been pointed out. But there are layers of dependent accolades that all become unobtainable because the seasonal treasure hunt wasn’t possible to complete. We are only seeing 2 treasure hunts per season. And we know at least 10 are needed for What a Bounty. Shiver me timbers is still locked. So maybe even more required with that one. Hall of Fame completion requires completing all discovery accolades. Many of us have put in a lot of time and effort to complete the 4x 10 races of unbeatable difficulty. As well as many more accolades in that tree. Only to see it all crumble because of this bug.
We are now unable to complete all these dependent accolades until many seasons (real time months/year) go by and the treasure hunts repeat.
In order to complete Hall of Fame accoldates you need:
Eureka! - Complete all Discovery Accolades. This requires:
Shiver Me Timbers -This requires:
– What a Bounty - Discover 10 Treasure Chests. This requires:
— Aaarrrggghhh! - Discover 5 Treasure Chests
With the Summer season and Series 3 being started today, could we please get an update on this topic. Do you plan to do something about it retroactively to allow for the Min/Max achievement for Series 2 or even Series 1? Would be good to know before uninstalling the game.
They can fix this if they wanted to all ready shown they can add totals to the season. so why can they not just take 3 points of the total needed so everybody that has put in the hrs to complete every thing else can get this completed. Have had weeks now to fix this but rather fix silly things that do not effect the game play. Like the mud on numberplate !! Wow well-done…
No point you know there will be another bug that will be brushed under the carpet. Think play ground games need to have a word with studios like RARE who are very active in responding to support and do fix problems with in game events and achivements…
ManteoMax, you can’t issue a statement that say “we are looking for a solution” and simultaneously hint that there won’t be any because of time restrictions.
Let’s be honest, if this isn’t fixed before this season end, there’s practically zero chance they’ll retroactively fix it and give the achievements for a past season. They’ll just try to make sure the next will work, and hope we forget about it. But for me it won’t do, I already invested way too much time on that game, no way I’ll ever do another complete series.
Believe me, I’m very much pro-labour and totally understand that developers need their holidays vacations. But I also know there’s probably a few low wage workers in your offices that wish for nothing more than to prove their worth that would be capable of coming up with a simple SQL/Redis query in less than an hour that would fix it. Hell, I probably could myself, this isn’t a very complex problem.
The annoying part is that it’s been over 1month since the bug was widely reported by the community, and then it took 15days for this statement saying it’s too late to look into it. Not to mention that (for a first party xbox studio of all thing), the decision to include a time-sensitive achievement is a huge poor decision, and not supporting it on top of that is a massive screw up. You are the ones who put this arbitrary limit, at least try not to impact hundreds if not thousands of players with your decision?
I’d like to add, since purchasing FH5 premium edition, along with the “Treasure Chest Location add-on”, (which only cost approx. $6 & still doesn’t work), I’ve had bugs galore, where treasure hunts are being marked incomplete, as well as falling short from the season too!
I’ve thought about resetting, but I come to one unlikely CONclusion, that there will be challenges missing, and/or they’ll be full of bugs. This is worrying!
Is the additional cost of VIP membership tainted so much that funds spent for goods not delivered, customers will be reimbursed? As I think the idea of resetting this game will only amount to time specific challenges disappearing, and/or missing, or the most appropriate, Not Functioning Properly. It’s like we’re paying a Premium for developers to fix a game, that never really worked properly in the first instance, or is it different than I see this?
It’s new year now and it’s only 5 days left for this last season. Any update or so-called compensation for players who have completed everything except that 3-pt bugged treasure hunt? I wish all of those who completed everything except the bug can still unlock Min Meet Max, and that’s the only thing I wish now…
Like in series 1 my ticket concerning this was closed as solved “looking into this”. I will complete the missing daily challenges which will then again result in a flawless season minus the bugged points. If the achievement is not granted I will not try again and I am done with the game. Considering this is a system seller level AAA game the communication of the developers is extremely embarrassing.
