when achievements are displayed as rare?
Just wondering how displaying achievements work in our profiles. My display shows most rare achievements I got, but few times I've actually got much more rare achievements - like 0,1% - and they never show up. Sometimes it happens with new games, but sometimes with old, I couldn't really find a key. I'm not saying that this is important, but on the other hand why I have achievements with 0,4% being displayed as most rare, while those with 0,1-0,2 not?

Something went wrong while displaying this content. Refresh

The client will report different values for rarity of an achievement in different places, so you may be relying on an inaccurate percent.

Maybe. I'm taking into account what is displayed in game-thread when I get particular achievement. So, typically, it shows most recent achievements. Today I got one with 0,1%, but only within week or so I believe at least 10 with rarity lower than those that are displayed in the profile.

The showcase works with two decimal places.
It also omits any achievement of games with "profile features limited", which is the most likely explanation for new games not showing up.

Good point! I overlooked that possibility.

Decimal places... okay... but 0,1 no matter if this is 0,1 or 0,10000 is still a lower figure than 0,4 or 0,4000, right? I wouldn't be suprised in case when 0,3 is lower than 0,3 because one 0,3 might be actually 0,34 while other 0,30... but 0,1 is still lower than that.

What is "profile features limited"? I don't recall this thingy. Where can I find it?

Just to show my observations: in recent week I got very rare achievements in Cities:Skylines, Sniper Elite 4 and Boneraiser Minions (or whatever it is called). Now, C:S is okay - all achievements are shown in proper place, while two other - with lower rarity - not. Sniper Elite 4 is a popular game but few years old, while Boneraiser is newer, but I'm not sure how "new" it is, maybe 2021 or early 2022.

Check the features section of the store page.

Thanks. I understand now. But my games dont seem to have this PFL thing - so it is not the case.

For example Boneraiser Minions.

Why is that?

Nobody unlocks achievements in that game, and there's ton of owners of that app since it's free.
all three lines of my showcase are filled with them.

The rarest achievements listed are at one-half percent, not one-tenth (based on global percentages I see via the store page).

Agreed. Of the 74 achievements I see none that low.

Yes, I see now. Achievement is Elven Wayfinder Bosshunter - it shows 0,1% in one place, and 2,9% in second. I'm wondering why steam displays two values... pretty interesting.
