I have been unlocking achievements just fine lately. Then last night I finished getting some skulls here and there, doing some levels, etc… A few achievments show LOCKED with a picture of a grey lock on it, BUT it also shows 100% complete, with bar filled, at the same time! I redid them again, but still nothing. WTF? How can I resolve this and get the gamerscore points?
Microsoft decided to do server side achievements which is lame because when they have server side issues like they have been having it can cause achievements not to unlock. Another reason why they Xbox 360 has been superior to the Xbox one. You could do achievements offline, can’t do that with the Xbox one.
I guess this would explain why I wasn’t getting the Begins With a Single Step acheivement last night after playing it twice … although I did get the par time acheivement the second time. Why would one pop and not the other?
Did I miss an announcement from Microsoft that they’d be doing that? Would be nice to know beforehand …
I don’t know if they ever really announced that. Just something they changed.

Apologies … I misread what you wrote, thought you said the servers were down last night specifically but this appears to be something that happens all the time.
Thankfully I’m never even attempting LASO … if those acheivements never popped I’d be … not happy.

Yeah the worse part about this is it effects every one differently or at all. The he is headed to his destiny achievement took like a week to unlock for me. Then there was having to replay a few levels on legendary so they would register to get achievements. It’s a pretty lame system so far.
Pretty lame indeed. I guess I’ve been fortunate … the only major issue I’ve had is the Saga playlist restarting itself after Cairo Station but I don’t think that was a server problem. I guess there are worse things than having to play Tsavo Highway on easy with no vehicle … like anything on legendary. :-/
I’m not convinced that “everything online” is such a great thing. Especially when it doesn’t work on a consistent basis.
unfortunately after the latest MCC update it screwed some achievements up for a fact like Halo 3 “Who needs them” achievement. If you didn’t get it before the latest update and you can’t get it unless A) 343 fixes it in a future update like several audiolog achievement issues some have or B) you uninstall the game from your xbox and go offline, then play the game after installing it without any updates yet and you can get that one which will pop when you go online apparently just for that 1 achievement. Sucks and I’ll get it at a later date lol.
Thanks everyone. Guess I will have to be content with the ones that do pop up for me. Doesn’t matter though, Halo 5 is just weeks away! Then I can focus on new achievements!
Got all the audiologs in ODST, but 17th isn’t “unlocking.” That is funny since you have to get each log to get the next…Got all 30
Funny thing is the plates/emblems/etc… have still unlocked as I get achievements, even if the achievment doesn’t…

Possibly but this is 343 we are talking about here. What if they have the same server issues for H5? Only time will tell.
UPDATE!
They all unlocked when I went on my xbox this morning!

Nice!
Does that include Who Needs Them? Did that one yesterday and didn’t get the credit for it.
I’m going to consider myself exceptionally lucky.
Admittedly I’ve only been playing MCC since I got the X1 in June, and simply don’t always have time to play each day/week (family, work etc). But I’ve not encountered a single error or issue with MCC.
Granted that’s only over a three month period and after a fair number (or so I understand) of patches and updates.
Am I the only one not to have problems with MCC?
Sorry, triplicate post!
Good old mobile broadband…

When I look at your Service Record, I still see the 17th Audio Log at 100% instead of unlocked. That should indicate that it is Done-Unlocking in the Achievements app. It also still shows as locked on your xbox.com profile.
If the 17th Audio Log has unlocked for you, it will be the first example I’ve seen of a Done-Unlocking Audio Log getting fixed.
There was an issue a few days ago with many Xbox One games not unlocking achievements. That seems to be fixed and those have unlocked after the fact for many.
As for Who Needs Them?, that was glitched by the April 22 Content Update. The only known way to unlock it is to use an old version installed from disc. Read the achievement workaround for more details. (According to Russian69Hitman’s xbox.com profile, that is also still locked.)

I downloaded it. There’s no way I’m getting the disk just to get the achievement. I have too many other achievements to get.
replay a mission

I’m curious to try this as I’ve had an audio log stuck at “Done! Unlocking…” for over three months. I could uninstall and reinstall but I wouldn’t be able to do anything similar for the ODST DLC as far as attempting to play an unpatched version, correct?
