Steam Achievements bugged

[Bad.]

I've been playin satisfactory for quite a while now and never unlocked any achivements.
Does anyone have the same issue ?

Maybe you changed the server settings?

Started a new game with v1.0 release, or still on a previous runthrough?

(Achieves only unlockable by starting a new game in v1.0, and ensure not enabled any Advanced Game Settings).

EDIT: Thought CSS said something about have to start new game for achievements to work, or might be mixing that up on the "not retrospectively" part

^^ small correction to above reply - Steam achievements are locked if enabling advanced game settings, but you don't need new 1.0 save game.

a) If you start fresh with 1.0, obviously start collecting achievements as you go.

b) if you have 1000+ hr save from 0.8 or prior update, you get zero credit for any already completed status BUT start to earn credit soon as you 1.0 is played with this old save.

e.g. loading old pre-1.0 save game won't trigger the 5k foundations laid down achievement even if entire world is covered in concrete. But as long as you put down another 5k, you can keep playing older save and still earn new achievements. You just need to repeat and re-earn each of them.

No issues here, but I did make it a point to start a new save without messing with settings when 1.0 came out.

Note: per note, if you turn on Advance Game Setting, it will NOT revert back, in order to turn Achievement back on, you need to play the save version BEFORE turning on Advance Game Setting.

Skipping the onboarding just means you can't get the tutorial achievement. Our progress has been working fine in a multi server. Some stuff like the Mercer spheres seems to count globally when anyone picks it up if you are online at least. Must be in game for the space elevator launches to count.

From what I've heard, the game not being in English can also interfere with achievements.

Well, i've start a new save at v1.0 release but without tutorial. I tried a new save with tutorial, achievements starts te be completed.
Unfortunately, when i go back in the first V1.0 save, acheviements doesnt works.
I must have selected " advance game setting before lauching my save first as said Sasheria
Thanks, need to restart a new one :') 50hours..
But, my factorie will be better, right ? Right...?
Have fun !

I'm on my 3rd 1.0 run trying to get achievements started and none have triggered. I'm sure I had no advance settings enabled, on the last 2 at least. Any other advice? would a complete uninstall-reinstall clear things up? Do we have to set up some toggle for steam achievements to go through?

Yeah me too, as I said, 3 times, and still no achievements.

Well I went full metal -> uninstall and reinstall and still no achievements, literally start the game after install, type a name click go no settings -- nothing, didn't even hit escape until 4 hours of play passed, saved and exited. -- still no achievements. In some other games, there's been some linking thing needed to tie my game to my steam account, or is it my platform? Linux using compatibility tool.

Just to confirm.

Achievements work fine on Linux. I started a new save with 1.0 and have been collecting the achievements with no issues whatsoever. I even found one of the hidden ones.

@jefkin, a collection on thoughts on what to check (no expert on Steam or how it handles achievements, but here's somethings tat occur to me to check)...

1. Are you running Steam in offline mode? (as I understand it, Steam has to be connected to grant achievements, whether that's correct or not, am unsure)
   
2. Does Steam lose it's internet link during gameplay? (ie, same thought as before, without an internet, no way for the Steam client to 'phone home' to record in its database what achievements have been, well, achieved)
   
3. Do you get achievements for other games (ie, is it an account-wide thing, or just Satisfactory?)
   
4. Confirmed actually are running v1.0 (would think this one super unlikely at this point, but worth eliminating from the list of possible reasons)

Maybe this can help. Basically, try to eliminate as many "what it's can't be"s so narrow down what is it.

Steam has to be online at launch for achievements to activate. You can disconnect once the game is loaded and they will still work in the background (how I got many of mine while traveling for work)
