Having any mods enabled stops you from getting Steam achievements. A small price to pay for Squeak Through.

I'll check when I'm back home, but I'm positive that I'm using it. Try checking the mod explorer, not the update tab.

This happened due to the Space Age release, I’m earning achievements again myself and I’ve played a ton.

That has to be bugged or they reset something with the new release. I did all the achievements years ago and the numbers were not that low.

Probably, this is the current one (the screenshot is a few days old):

On second thought this is still very broken

There's probably quite a few people who couldn't play during the week. There were hudnreds of thousands copies sold in the last few days, not everyone could play right away. I got lucky and managed to squeeze maybe 10 hours in...

There also might be people who bought it from Steam, since the word got out it's better for Wube, but then went to factorio.com and got a copy unconnected from Steam. But yes, even before, there was a surprising number of people who didn't get any achievement ever.

Why would it be better for Wube to buy from Steam?

To get an extra boost from the homepage sorting algorithm. More people will get a recommendation, of a newly released game is selling well.

It's definitely a bug, I went and looked at my old achievements and even though all the ones from the base game are unlocked, almost all of them say 0.0% of players have that achievement.

I still regret running a /c command on my server to increase critter evolution rates

Plenty of folks buy the game for later or just forget about it. Almost 10% of Rocket League players never scored a goal. Same goes for changing one single aspect of your car.

You have to launch the game to count though. Just buying it isn't enough. The reason for this is mods though. I have 0 achievements because I never play totally vanilla.

I had played 200 hours before space age and got most achievs. Playing space age, after I launched a rocket, I got achiev for using red science popping out. My current guess is just achievs are broken, sort of reset or maybe new, and for now everything is at 0.1%

3

I've seen this happen on quite a few new releases. I think there is some eventual consistency stuff happening behind the scenes with the steam servers kind of like the old 301 views on YouTube, but for the achievements on steam.

I feel that way about Helldivers. How TF isn't everyone getting the cape spinning achievement???!

You reached the end

Does anyone even play factorio? | Spyke
