Do achievements carry over between Game Pass and Steam?
Anyone know, or any devs know?

I don't know if they're tracked by the Nebula account or something, so I don't know if it's worth going for any special achievements while I'm still on the Game Pass. Assuming this game survives that long, I don't want to work hard doing something stupid and arbitrary, then pick up the game on Steam later and have an empty list. :lunar2019deadpanpig:

A lot of steam achievement systems pick up data from the save file, would not be able to answer for payday 3 but I was able to get all of my achievements in sea of thieves transferred over when I loaded in my save from that account system

That gives me some hope at least.

Yea i think it mainly depends on how the devs made the game, since they make you use nebula that points to achievements being cross progression as well.

It depends on what the saves are actually tied to, especially as it is an online-only game where saves are usually tied to an account. If they decided to tie your saves to your Nebula account then you may be in luck.

If saves are tied to your Xbox/Steam account then I doubt it as the only other way they could cross over via the cloud would be if the Steam version also required an Xbox login, which I am fairly sure it doesn't. Just speaking from experiences of playing other games from both vendors. So far the only time I have seen progress cross over have been from first party MS games where the Steam version did require an Xbox account.

I'm pretty sure saves are not stored locally. I'll admit I've done zero research on that, but if I am wrong that would make the always online design choice just that little more puzzling.

How much have you played on PC so far? Which achievements have you had to re-earn?

No they do not. I am missing 5 that I did on xbox game pass. They do not transfer over.

Not sure knowing which 5 I did not get will help you but it was: No one cared who I was, Danger, High Voltage, Unlimited Power, Colour me surprised, Just...one...more.

I was playing on gamepass and got all 22 achievments the game currently have. Now I can not get a single achivement to unlock on steam. Consider their API call contain achievment tracking, i think the achivements are tied up with nebula account. They just need to fix the sync issue across platform, I hope.
