    Hi, some achievements aren't unlocking. So far, the achievements for getting Vincent, winning the Chocobo race and getting Leviathan haven't unlocked for me. Anybody know of a fix?

    Update: I got the Leviathan achievement to pop by uninstalling the game and trying again.

    As a precaution, save often (especially just before you go for an achievement) and make sure boosters are off before the achievement should pop. (I don't know if boosters affect it, as I had them off after uninstalling and reinstalling.)

    What are boosters? I played the crap out of this game as a kid but never heard of boosters before
    Every game with DLC that you pay for is a paid update.

    @Johnny Broflex In the re-releases of the game, you can turn on certain cheats: 3x speed, no random battles and "God mode" which is your limit bar is constantly 100% and you recover from any attack that doesn't kill you.

    I'm having problems again. Materia Mastermind isn't unlocking. I'm going to try uninstalling and reinstalling the game again. This is ridiculous.

    Alright, it seems like you don't need to uninstall/reinstall, just close the game and reload it. Make sure to save before you go for any achievement, because if you save after you use one-time items like Highwind or whatever, you're stuffed!

    I haven't had problems with the achievements actually unlocking, but I have had three achievements pop without any notification at all.

    I'm having an issue where I have been using boosters, I've used the Lvl 4 limit breaks for Cloud and Yuffie and the achievements haven't popped, and I can't even use Tifas Lvl 4 limit break item, she just says something like I dunno, maybe but, and it's pretty much unusable, any advice from anyone ?

    Same issue here: Yuffie's & Red XIII's limit break achievements did not unlock.

    It's been a month and the achivements are not still unlocking, when I look at some of your profiles you have the achivements, what did you do to make them unlock in the end?

    I was lucky that I had a save file for Red XIII's limit break.
    Yuffie's limit break unlocked overnight.

    Just spent 30 minutes beating Ruby Weapon, didn’t pop. Then grabbed Knight of the Round and that didn’t pop either. Gonna be really mad if these never pop.

    Well who do we talk to about this? I just used Aerith's level 4 limit break item and nothing happened. So I checked to make sure it didn't just pop without me seeing it, and I realized that the last three conditions I've met didn't unlock the achievements ...
  • Posted on 21 June 20 at 15:03
    Well I did a hard reset of the console, reloaded an earlier save and managed to get the achievement for Aerith's final limit break, but does that mean I need to do that for safety every time I'm coming up on a possible achievement? Like that means I have to scan the list and have basically a walkthrough going so I know when I'm approaching those conditions? Kind of part of the fun is for me to just replay this game and see all the random stuff popping. Plus, what about the "secret achievements"? Garbage. I'm still owed the one for having Vincent joint, he's been here for a minute, and Chocochampion, which I just thought maybe I had to unlock on my own when I got back to the gold saucer...

    I don't understand why I can't get a hold of someone at Xbox or Square or whoever, have them check the conditions on my file and just give me what I've earned.

    Some of these I can reload an earlier save and push through to try again, but what about the optional weapon bosses? I'm not trying to refight 20 + minute battles over and over again until it recognizes my achievement.

    I remember getting Assassin's Creed Revelations when it was brand new, and having every achievement pop except the one for reading all books. Frustrating, because it was the only one keeping me from full completion. I used to check and recheck and recheck to see if one day it would just pop. It finally did, but that was after me logging in again on a whim after about six years...

    Obviously, I have trouble letting go...
