Xbox PC Gamepass Achievements - EA App achievements

Hi there!

I made a post back in March 2021 (Ea Play games in the Xbox Gamepass (PC) should give players Xbox Achievements - Answer HQ) mentioning that a lot of Xbox PC Gamepass players wanted to win Achievements in the new EA Desktop App. It gained a lot of comments & upvotes but sadly nothing has been mentioned about it. 

 
 I have been regularly checking the Trello board since then, & it has had a few technical updates, but nothing else. 


So please, the whole community is waiting for a simple answer on the subject regarding achievements in the EA App / PC Game Pass. We just wanna know if this will arrive or not, so just a "yes" or "no" question. 


Thanks & happy holidays for y'all, take care & keep up the good work!

  • I just downloaded Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order I went through way to much to get my PC game pass to link with EA and actually download the game. Now I'm discovering I can't get achievements through the app. Its a shame as now ill never play this game. I'll be immediately uninstalling the game and the EA app without looking back

    And where is the problem again ?! so you are saying that we should not voice our dissatisfaction about not have achievements even if the thread is closed without answer? Let me know what is "allowed" to get voices heard and get some answers

  • So here I am, getting a new gaming PC with a RTX card, all excited to be able to experience some of my favourite games with better graphics and frame rate, and yet even though I get EA Play  on the PC through Xbox GamePass Ultimate, NONE of the EA games support achievements or anything like it on the PC?

    What's the point of giving us the PC games through the GamePass if you're going to give us the middle finger on achievement progress, or saves cross platform? 

    The only excuse I can think of is that you "had" to supply the games to gamers, and make ZERO effort in integration into the Xbox ecosystem - you HAVE to do it on the consoles, but don't care about rewarding players for their progress

    We already get split scoring on other store platforms with Steam,. Epic and Xbox, so EA games kind of stick out as a store thumb to be the only PC games with no rewards for progress - even GOG games (mostly) have achievements, so it just goes to show how little EA cares about the PC market!

    When will EA realise that gamers LIKE being rewarded for their progress with achievements or trophies? They give a sense of accomplishment that you've done something, whether it's progress through the story, completed a collection, upgraded something to its limit, or done something extraordinary, we LIKE ACHIEVEMENTS! That's why every other game store has them in some way or other!!!

    PLEASE can you tell the "powers that be" that your PC games should either have Xbox achievements (even if only when part of GamePass) or your own system, just give us SOMETHING!!!

    Guys listen carefully. They say this site is only for "Players helping players" but EA Support Chat told me and linked me to this site saying that THIS is where DEVS look for bugs & feedback about EA DESKTOP and EA GAMES. With this "EA Answers" site, the suits at EA created a social platform were players complain but nobody answer them and nothing is solved, basically this is an isolated whole where complains get accumulated but nobody cleans or looks at that whole. This was obviously created to prevent other social media platforms like twitter, instagram, etc flooded with players problems & downvotes.

     Don't use this site guys, go to their social media posts like twitter and instagram & complain there. If we explain our problems there, maybe one day they will do something. But the truth is that here nobody is reading things. The people with the EA label doesn't so anything, I'm telling you I've been explaining my problems to them since 2020 & not a single of my problems was resolved, they're just ornamental to this site.

    Hey @shaggytoph please do not post misinformation on AHQ.

    We read all posts and pass all feedback and bugs on to the team.

  • I'm playing on Xbox PC Game Pass, and this was going to be my next game to get achievements, and I've gotten a few... but I just noticed that I'm not getting credit for it on Xbox.. So I'm probably going to stop playing it now. I'm not really up to console playing......... ugh. I was really enjoying the Sims 4 too. It's a bummer the achievements do not unlock for Xbox app. I did read something about maybe streaming the game from my console to the Xbox app may work. I'm extra annoyed cause I started playing this on my laptop, and thought something was wrong with that. Then I started playing it on my PC.. just to find out that it doesn't work. This is going to require me to get Xbox Game Pass Ultimate though.
