Warn Me if Achievements are Disabled

Post » Sun Mar 06, 2011 7:45 am

I frequently use the console to fix bugs, and I reload the game after to get achievements. However it would be nice to tell the player whenever achievements are disabled, like Rockstar does in GTA 4. I realized that I had not gotten Ring-a-Ding-Ding!, so I cheated the life out of the game to get the quest completed again. Finally, I went back to another save, at which point I was utterly exhausted. Do I have a point, or am I ridiculously obsessed with achievements with no actual value?



P.S.It's not getting it that's the hard part. It's letting go.

Yes, you're obsessed. Also, once you open the console, that character is incapable of achievements. I can't remember if it's for that session or for the entire existance of that character.

It's just for that session, and I'm quite sure you have to use a console command, simply opening the console is insufficient.

I didn't know that - there have been a few times when I've accidentally hit the key to open the console, and I've always quit and restarted.

That's the worst part.
