Yeah there are programs that allow you to unlock achievements. I've never understood it. If they matter to you, you should get in there and get them, right?

There are no known VAC bans due to using SAM and it is not related with VAC anyway because it affects multiplayer games only. Don't spread bullshit.

Just running the game in offline mode and making the achieves is enough...Steam don't count the hours played in offline mode...got one or two games barely played and got achieves

When you open steam achievements manager, it tricks steam into thinking that you're playing it. That's why it shows some playtime, and why people use it to idle for cards.

I do, for one reason. Datacaps. Using SAM is a lot cheaper than downloading several GB for 25 cents of cards.

It gets inconvenient to install everything when you have a large library with a lot of games that have cards. Plus running SAM is much less taxing than running a game in the background.

It's like climbing a mountain after multiple days of hard work just to see some person flying to the top on a helcopter and sticking a "I was here" flag to it. It's even more annoying when the cheaters have achievement showcases on their profiles.

Yeah, there's a program called SAM that people can use to get achievements. But if you use it for VAC games, you can get VAC banned.

I don't see why people cheat for achievements. Doesn't that ruin the whole point of them? lol

A lot of people see achievements as a PERSONAL matter. So weather one user cheats or legaly gains achievement unlocks is fully up to the user and doesn't affect others, usually.... sure there are rare expections but in general unlocking achievements via 3rd party tools doesnt affect others. I do NOT approve such things of course.

Of course it's a personal matter. But I've always thought of earning achievements was fun because of the process of earning them! If I just used SAM, where would be the fun in that?

Agreed, I used SAM for getting cards for games I'd already played through, but using it to actually pretend you got achievements is pretty low.

Two words: Arkham Asylum

I might consider using the program to fill back in the achievements I actually earned but didn't xfer with the GFWL death.

But that's a rare exception.

I agree. Part of the fun for me is trying to go back and earn 'em on my own.

I 100% Batman:AA on PS3 with the 3D version and exclusive Joker DLC, on 360, and again a few months back on Steam. That game is a bitch to do all the challenges, but I keep my completion rate over 60% by beating games before I uninstall them. I know it doesnt count games you dont have any achievements for but with time and guides I have 27 legit completed games. This guy has 24 and double the achievements. This does piss me off so now I use two achievement showcases to show my rares and the ones I spent the most time getting is the second.

Look at me Steam profile though, I've spent thousands of hours for those achievements and tons of $ on cards. Fools like this are too unskilled and broke to feel good about themselves so they cheat and make people like me feel incomplete. I feel like I've wasted time getting Lambdas for the 2nd time in my life. The first was 360.

...?

Let me ask - why do you get achievements? To compare yourself to others or feel superior? That's lame..

Achievements earned by you are yours - you put the time into them, and earned them fair and square. You achieved something. That's why they're called, you know, achievements? Who cares what achievements others may or may not have as compared to you - especially when it is easy as hell to see the difference between legit and not legit achieves?

Your achieves are yours, a mark of skill in / experience with a game on your profile. Nothing changes that. Nor does some other guy, a moron, using SAM to get meaningless and hollow achieves, affect you in any way.

Like the Basement Collection, no steam cloud saves, but the achievements themselves unlock content ingame if you lost your save.

There will always be gamers willing to cheat when they lack time or skill. But the funny part starts when they try to reason. Achievements ain't a big deal, but its just one of the things that makes me sad to see fabricated. For me its fun to have achievements, they give more goals to the game. And some of them are hard to obtain, who wouldn't mind some recognition/epeen for a noble effort?

I love getting achievements. And satisfaction of getting hard ones is something which can't be explained to those who haven't tried :) The whole point of getting them is to get them with your own skills! But some people are... well, let's say "not smart".

Except with random acquired achievements. Those just happen by accident. But I quite like that, the surprise "unlocking" of an achievement. Especially since I don't know what the achievement is for and have to look it up.

That's the work of that Steam achievement manager, some of the people who uses it on my friend list I immediately removed them. Very lame when all of a sudden you see them launch a game every 2-3 seconds and filled the activity page will the unlocks.

It's like buying a book, never reading it, and then getting someone to go through the pages dog-earring some of them and spilling coffee on others. Why? So that other people think you've read the book? Who cares?

I like going through my achievements, and I like how many perfect games I have because often they represent that I've put more time into a game and enjoyed it more.

That is impressive. Especially considering how time intensive some of those achievements are, half of them are grinding goals. So with the SAM that person can pat himself on the back and consider himself part of the 1% to get something.

Some games can get achievements in offline mode. When you log in to steam it syncs them and you get them all at once. This has happened to me once or twice.

I did some recent KF Achievements offline, it's not a big deal if you know the game quite well. However, some achievements are locked and bonded to events, it's not possible to get them even with SAM.
