SAM achievement unlock for EA game
So I've been playing titanfall 2 and got all achievements except for the become the master. Honestly ♥♥♥♥ that achievement. So I got tired of keep running the gauntlet and instead just used steam achievement manager to unlock it. It worked. Now I have 50/50 achievements on steam.
But when I opened origin app and saw my profile, it says 49/50 achievements and doesn't include the become the master achievement I unlocked through SAM.
Does SAM unlocked achievement not automatically count for origin?

Never used SAM, but that seems to be the case.

I don't use SAM but the tool itself is called Steam Achievement Manager. So from my understanding based on that, it'll only affect achievements on steam. It wouldn't make much sense for Steam Achievement Manager to work on unlocking achievements on platforms it wasn't made for.

No. SAM just tells Steam that an achievement has been unlocked. You're not unlocking the achievement within the game. The game still needs to record you doing whatever task is necessary to satisfy the achievement. And since it's an Origin game, the game is most likely going to update Origin, which would normally then update Steam.

SAM only sends a signal to Steam tnat the achievement was unlocked, not to ORIGIN.
So no, you are stuck with 49/50 forever on your ORIGIN stats unless you do the achievement legit again while connected to the ORIGIN servers.

To tell you the true,I totally don't understand why steam's achievement system can't be rolled back, it caused my Dead by Daylight achievements to change from December 2018 to April 2021, just being stolen for 10 minutes:steamthumbsdown:

I mean based on the results, I think you already know the answer.

Also what does SAM stand for? Steam Achievement Manager? Where's EA or other platforms included in there?

When you meet the conditions in game the achievement request is sent to all the systems in the game. But using SAM you didn't meet the conditions, so that code isn't run. All that happens is the request is sent to Steam's API, not all the API's that might be used in game. Which means no, Origin, Uplay or other systems don't "count".

You are technically correct, the best kind of correct.
