How to unlock the BFA achievement in Darksiders II Deathinitive Edition - Definitive Guide

***** FIXED. ITS TAKEN 3 YEARS BUT THIS ACHIEVEMENT HAS NOW BEEN FIXED BY THE DEVELOPERS. If you already have the all the other achievements just log in to the game load it up and it will unlock. if like me you stopped playing because of the broken achievment, its time to revisit a great game and get unlocking those achievments*************

No tracked gamers have this achievement, this is officially listed as an unobtainable achievement

In theory this achievement is supposed to unlock once all the other 49 achievements have been earned. Some people have claimed that reinstalling the game then re-entering the last boss is a fix, however I believe these to be trolls/lies, as trueachievements would have picked up on at least one person earning this.

Further research on my part has revealed the developers are aware of this bug but as the games sales figures were a major disappointment they are in no rush, but hopefully a patch will at some point be released to fix this.

Fuck you ,,/,, Darksiders 2

By Deadzone Fight on 26 Oct 2016 18:47

Now THQ is back on board has any one asked them if it will be fixed. I don't know were to start. Or have I got this wrong.

By J ROLLER 1979 on 08 Nov 2016 02:27

thq is not really on board they just renamed the company to thq but its still the same company who put this out

By Terrin on 16 Nov 2016 21:42

there is some hope guys https://twitter.com/ElMegalomator/status/800681568104611840

By Dredgen on 21 Nov 2016 12:46

If only they could also fix the server error on the 360 version....

By pithiviers on 04 Dec 2016 19:57

I will hold of buying the Warmastered Edition if this is their way of fixing things. I love this series and would happily 100% the games if they would only show that they give a damn and not give false promises to their consumer base.

By Bullen470 on 12 Dec 2016 20:26

I am in the same boat as you, Bullen. I've had an unopened copy of this game for over a year now. I would also hold off on getting Warmastered until that game is fixed, as BFA is ironically glitched in that one as well...

By Clockwerks on 13 Dec 2016 16:31

Great you are my fucking Last Game for my 100 % completion but how many Years can this taking ???
I hate you so much Darkshiters

By Deadzone Fight on 13 Dec 2016 19:34

Still no fix ??? pathetic ....

By pithiviers on 30 Dec 2016 11:15

Just sent a message at "https://www.thqnordic.com/company/contact" ( for both Xbox 360 & One versions)

By pithiviers on 30 Dec 2016 11:31

This might have something to do with the fact that the original game had a now discontinued achievement for sending a loot item as a gift to another player via an alter in each level. The one that was replaced by the "Deathinitive" difficulty achievement in this list. Too bad. This was easily the better out of the 2 games otherwise. I love inventory optimization in games.

By Level 75 Noob on 01 Jan 2017 06:54

Even sending messages to support, forums, facebook, twitter, game producers... they simply stop answering. Well, that's the real answer for the fix we're waiting.

By Tropoebus on 13 Mar 2017 13:01

posting for updates

By D34dBodyMan on 05 Jun 2017 05:25

Wow people should actually start mass posting on that site you posted @hexa fox. They seem to reply and are bothered as that's what other companies see.

Need to find out how to register.

By Lavindathar on 02 Apr 2017 13:17

i'm guessing they are still ignoring us

By Goggs25 on 12 Apr 2017 12:54

More than Ignore us. They are lauthing all together out this Bastards

By Deadzone Fight on 19 Apr 2017 18:46

With a Darksiders Fury's collection - War and Death bundle (containing both remasters for a cheap price until 01/08/17) on the xbox store and with Darksiders 3 announced, this will hopefully be fixed soon! :) i want to get the remasters bundle for cheap IF they fix it first :O

By FuzzedUpCookie on 02 May 2017 19:45

i hope so but since but history show nordic don't give a shit about xbox gamer's

By Goggs25 on 03 May 2017 11:02

they've fixed it once on the 360 version tho...

By FuzzedUpCookie on 03 May 2017 11:05

they also fixed it on the PS4 version but for some reason scumbag nordic won't fix the xbox one version

By Goggs25 on 03 May 2017 11:20

Reinhard Pollice (Exec. Producer @ THQ Nordic) tweeted 20hrs ago "There are don't worry." in reply to a tweet "As excited as I am about Darksiders 3 I hope there are till plans to fix the BFA achievement for Darksiders 2 DE on Xbox One.". He also stated previously, mid April, they are working on a massive update for DE as well as fixing some issues with Warmastered. He said some time ago it's taking a some time getting these issues dealt with but hopes it'll be done ASAP. Fingers crossed sooner than later. His twitter account is https://twitter.com/ElMegalomator/

By scmark15 on 03 May 2017 17:29

hope so, i'll get the Fury Collection with both remasters for a 20 euro pricetag (until august at 50% off) soon then (when this happens tho)

By FuzzedUpCookie on 03 May 2017 18:06

I hope so, Scmark15. this will be fixed achievement soon for darksider 2 DE on xbox one. Thank for letting us to know about this.

By on 04 May 2017 02:05

Soon soon soon. It itz Time to fix this 2 fucking Years on Nordic Bullshit Games abd nothing were too do. Before that say that too we fix that soon and was were nothing !!!

^ R.I.P. English

By FuzzedUpCookie on 19 May 2017 13:45

Any news about this one? I'm near lv.30, my last achievement, and i wont like to need to repeat the whole game for that last one u.u

By Kaiso Yugon on 29 May 2017 18:54

He just tweeted 8 hours ago about a PS4 update is currently going through certification and will probably launch next week...hopefully xbox version arrives around the same time.

By scmark15 on 30 May 2017 19:26

That is good too hear thanks!

By FuzzedUpCookie on 30 May 2017 20:00

Wich tweeter is that?

By Kaiso Yugon on 30 May 2017 23:22

Don't know why they are doing a update for ps4 the achieves was fixed on that 3 months after game came out or why we have wait until the ps4 version gets a update more prove the scumbags don't give a shit about xbox one gamers

By Goggs25 on 31 May 2017 01:49

It was Reinhard that tweeted that out in reply to a PS4 user who's game crashes on startup. The PS4 version apparently has major stability issues, frame drops, screen tearing and audio issues. The steam version has a lot of similar issues, the xbox version has frame drops, audio issues and of course the BFA glitch.

By scmark15 on 31 May 2017 03:03

@Kaiso https://twitter.com/ElMegalomator/status/869572148855279616

By FuzzedUpCookie on 31 May 2017 07:32

Apart from the BFA the only issue I had with game on xbox one was the game breaking lever glitch they patch that I have had no audio or frame rate issues with xbox one version

By Goggs25 on 31 May 2017 08:15

I had audio go out of sync during some executions during my play throughs, although the 360 version had these issues too. Either way hope we all get the BFA to unlock soon.

By scmark15 on 31 May 2017 09:51

Still won't get ds3 even if they fix BFA they have had nearly 2 years to fix they have made it it clear thet don't give a shit about xbox one gamer's after just found out they fixed the fixed the glitch achievement on gothic arcadia 4 on ps3 but not on x1

By Goggs25 on 07 Jun 2017 01:07

With DS3 coming next year and people probably buying the last 2 games, more and more people will be complaining about it like us and hopefully with pressure from the consumers, we'll finally get this fixed. I stopped playing before getting to lvl 30 just incase it bugged and made me start a new game and BFA would be possibly screwed if you finished the game and were only missing that achievement.

By McQueen101 on 08 Jun 2017 20:14

+1 Goggs. Companies that do not respect us do not deserve our money. They treat us like idiots. Two years and they are still "trying to find a solution"? Someone could start from scratch studying a program language and code a solution alone in two years.

By SiegfriedX on 08 Jun 2017 20:57

It appears that the patch should arrive the next week or later in the month ! Wait an see !

By WhiterValkyrie on 10 Jun 2017 21:06

i'll believe that when it happens I was told something simular a couple of months before the release the darksiders 1 remake and I'm still waiting for that patch

By Goggs25 on 13 Jun 2017 04:53

Well, once again "next week" has come and gone...

By SiegfriedX on 17 Jun 2017 22:48

@ WhiteValkyrie where did you see that?

By McQueen101 on 18 Jun 2017 21:29

I'd also like to know where this info is coming from. If a patch is inbound, I'd be very happy.

By blandmr on 19 Jun 2017 14:21

i saw that on the twitter of the link above but i can't retrieve the exact twitt sorry ! But like you said, there is small chance that to be true !

By WhiterValkyrie on 20 Jun 2017 20:49

just get last "standard" achievement (for Wicked K), but BFA is still missing :(
Just emailed their support to put another brick in the wall.
I hope that they will fix it, it's so frustraiting to have 99% unlocked...

By Cardi6 on 22 Jun 2017 18:10

at this rate Donald trump would have built his wall by the time scumbags at thq nordic fix this

By Goggs25 on 23 Jun 2017 10:37

This is so stupid. At this rate Darksiders 3 will be out before this gets fixed. :(

By BloodGodAlucard on 03 Jul 2017 23:11

all this shows if thq nordic favors playstation over microsoft since they patched the ps4 version 4 months after game was realeased and nearly 2 years later we are still waiting

By Goggs25 on 04 Jul 2017 03:43

Btw, someone emailed Microsoft to know their point about THQ having 1 game bugged on their platform?

By Kaiso Yugon on 04 Jul 2017 09:27

All i need to do is finish waves 50-100 but I guess I will wait.

By wes coasn on 05 Jul 2017 16:34

I hope this suckers going down after the fix !!!
I Hope so !!!!

By Deadzone Fight on 07 Jul 2017 20:38

I'm just hoping they fix this before the two year anniversary of the game's launch.

By Clockwerks on 20 Jul 2017 14:16

Every so often I come in here to check if this is achievable and get sad. Would love to replay these games but not while I can't actually beat it.

Makes me annoyed at the fact that now I feel like I can't play 3 cause there's just to big a chance that they will mess it up too =\

By ChaosxTheorem on 17 Aug 2017 00:33

Seriously, how is this not fixed yet? I refuse to get hyped or pre-order the third game when they can't even fix an old one.

By Raiziell on 20 Aug 2017 20:06

because thq nordic scum HATE xbox one gamers and MS are too fucking lazy to tell them either fix it or go release your shit games on playstation since thq nordic likes them better

By Goggs25 on 20 Aug 2017 21:35

Why tha hell would they fix the ps4 version and not xbox one? I had no problem unlocking this on 360 version but idk if ima get ds3

By Gunrunner318 on 06 Oct 2017 21:12

I would say ask nordic but they can't even tell us when or if they will fix this achieve and for that I won't buy any game that is made or published by them they don't deserve my money and I hope the company goes under sooner the better

By Goggs25 on 06 Oct 2017 22:35

has anyone heard anything?

By mereel1 on 17 Oct 2017 14:43

Makes sense and Hopeful. Thanks for the info

By D34dBodyMan on 24 Oct 2017 20:00

Asked that on several people on twitter. Let´s see If someone answers.

By Kaiso Yugon on 25 Oct 2017 09:22

You will have more luck winner the lottery without a ticket then getting a straight answer from thq scum

By Goggs25 on 25 Oct 2017 11:23

terrible customer service and game support... vote with your wallets, people!! i know some of their games are good games but get them used or wait for a good discount! There's plenty of good games to play, even indie games are better than this and show more customer/product support.

By Quemandante on 26 Oct 2017 18:37

i'm still getting Darksiders 3 when it's on sale... i got the BFA online part done on the 360 version and don't own the 'deathinitive' edition so really don't care and not missing out on a game because of it

and MAYBE they'll patch it with the One X 4K patch, who knows

By FuzzedUpCookie on 26 Oct 2017 19:51

This game is getting an xbox one x patch, so maybe a fix may come with it?

By LGS I Hitman on 28 Oct 2017 18:02

Yeah sorry xDD I was refreshing, and site was spamming my answer xDDDDDDD
Hope the game gets a patch to fix that glitch too. No one answered on my tweet... obviously... u.u

By Kaiso Yugon on 28 Oct 2017 19:43

I also saw they fixed this on ps4 version i think its bullshit all these gaming companies favor sony over microsoft its not doing xbox owners right they do everything for playstation owners sure xbox games like halo and gears of war,fable series is xbox only games (all that i know about) but still they have playstation only games like god of war and others hell i member when mortal kombat came out playstation got kratos yet what did 360 version get? Nothing they need to fix their shit on all consoles instead of only favoring one thats what makes you lose your customers is not treating them right all because they favor one console over the other...

Evertytime when I just looking for the Achievement is it not fix. I hate these Nordic Idiots so much !!!

By Deadzone Fight on 05 Nov 2017 16:39

So...I've been asking who I can but I've recieved no responses on this subject. :(

By FrogDog001 on 13 Nov 2017 09:18

so this game is now on sale via the DS1/DS2 package... wonder if that will trigger a fix

By TAMB0 on 31 Dec 2017 16:15

With a lot of people boycotting it i doubt it will get high sale numbers.. we can hope though :) i'm tempted to get it but i'm probably better off just completing the 360 versions and then on to DS3 next year

By FuzzedUpCookie on 31 Dec 2017 17:59

any word?

By mereel1 on 13 Jan 2018 23:33

It will go into Game Pass in February 2018 but I do not think anything will change in this matter.

By Jayowski on 17 Jan 2018 15:16

Just completed the game for a 3rd and 4th time hit lvl 30. I unlocked epic but not BFA. I pulled my network connection reloaded the cloud save and hit lvl 30 a few more times to try and trick the game... but nothing worked. So I loaded my cloud save to keep my lvl 29 in hopes that I may need it for a patch when 4k comes out

By D34dBodyMan on 17 Jan 2018 16:18

Do achievement fixes cost money or something? I admit ignorance on the subject, but wouldn't it just be a simple fix of coding?

By EarthboundX on 21 Feb 2018 13:02

Why couldn't they fix it when it launched then? I just don't get it, or is fixing achievements to unlock properly just harder than we know?

I wonder if there's ever been videos or articles that go into how achievement are made, or how they are made to unlock? So many games have broken achievements, you'd think there'd be enough reasons to look into how exactly achievements work.

By EarthboundX on 21 Feb 2018 13:52

So, crazy idea here. Since the achievement not unlocking is obviously a coding error, there is a chance that it may be something curable through certain means. As such, for m first idea, has anyone here tried meeting the criteria of the other 49 achievements on the same playthrough? It's very possible that an error in the code might prevent save data for achievements from transferring between separate playthroughs even though you can still start a NG+. Just a thought

By Smiththedude on 12 Mar 2018 02:53

Smiththedude- it is impossible to get all achievements without NG+, so your idea wont work

By Terrene Fire on 20 Mar 2018 10:07

Nordic sent out this Darksiders II tweet. I see a few people trounced on them already. Let's all tell them how we feel!

this is the time to spam the tweet and stream

By D34dBodyMan on 14 Apr 2018 15:29

It's crazy how many "get all of the other achievements" achievements are bugged.

By napoearth on 16 Apr 2018 14:04

I'm read this the Xbox X update is out but no Achievement fix

THQ Idiots

By Deadzone Fight on 28 Apr 2018 20:05

Incorrect. If you check the Xbox One X enhanced games list on your console neither of the Darksiders remasters are there. The 360 versions have been patched for One X performance. So this supposed patch your referencing hasn't happened yet. I asked them about this on Twitter the other day, but they didn't respond. :( Hopefully if they ever do patch the remasters for One X optimization, the BFA achievement fix will also be included. But I wouldn't hold your breath at this point.

By BloodGodAlucard on 28 Apr 2018 20:38

Give it news?

By Goku Black#2698 on 06 May 2018 07:13

Any news? I started playing the game without reading that BFA is unobtainable! I wish i read it before starting that game..it is fun game a decent and fun 1000G run, but now it will be 990 instead!!

By on 18 May 2018 23:31

Any piss off gaming death edition

By Goku Black#2698 on 18 May 2018 23:35

Why this one is still unobtainable, why?!!

By on 17 Jun 2018 21:25

Such a shame for such an easy fix

By Sensei Neo on 27 Jun 2018 14:34

Game is being included with premium additions of Darksiders 3. Possible fix finally?

By Senseless Ogre on 07 Jul 2018 19:09

We can hope, but I somehow doubt it.

By EarthboundX on 07 Jul 2018 19:38

This makes me not want to buy Darksiders 3.

By MulticronX on 10 Jul 2018 01:50

Well if they don’t fix it FUCK part 3! They can kiss my ass broken ass shit!

By Hitman Darkness on 12 Jul 2018 13:16

i'll be gladly getting DS3!! i'm not missing out on that because of this one achieve in a 'remaster'

that i don't even own (got the the online stuff on the 360 version so that's good enough for me haha)

By FuzzedUpCookie on 12 Jul 2018 21:45

I'm a principal type of guy. Going through this game now. If this is not fixed I won't be buying any other games from them. The Forza series is a perfect example. It was one of my favorites, but due to terrible support Horizon 2 and F5 were the last games I bought in that series. I don't care if they continue to sell a million copies. They are not getting my money and that's all I care about. ✌🏼

By DopamineLoop on 13 Jul 2018 02:49

I think you mean principle, but I’m with ya!

By Big Ell on 13 Jul 2018 03:03

Eh, as long the game itself works. I see achievements as a separate thing from the games themselves.

Not that it doesn't suck that we can't get them all.

By EarthboundX on 13 Jul 2018 03:20

Achievements > Games

By Goku Black#2698 on 13 Jul 2018 03:25

Fuck you Nordic

By Deadzone Fight on 13 Jul 2018 18:27

Because I really enjoyed this game and want the recognition of having all of the achievements!

By JackBlaise on 04 Nov 2018 11:44

I see that as a reason some devs aren't in a hurry to fix broken achs myself actually.
We achievement hunters are a tiny, tiny part of the gaming world. I don't like it of course, but it's true, there's not a ton of us compared to the rest of the gaming world.

By EarthboundX on 14 Jul 2018 17:08

Exactly. Achievement hunters are less than 1 percent of the gaming community. They don't care about us. If it doesn't affect their bottom line in a significant way, they have no reason to go out of their way to fix something so meaningless to most people. I hate it obviously. But I understand it from a business perspective.

By BloodGodAlucard on 15 Jul 2018 00:43

*insert Thank You gif* still sucks tho, but i'm still getting DS3 when it's cheap.. at that point it should be clear if the whole list is going to be obtainable or not lol :)

By FuzzedUpCookie on 15 Jul 2018 09:04

This sucks so much as this was the FIRST game i did as a noob achievement hunter and couldn't even get the last BFA achievement. We should spam THQ Nordic's twitter feeds... not that it will do any good.. You never know..

By KibaKun182 on 20 Jul 2018 13:07

Start a new Gamertag.

By Goku Black#2698 on 21 Jul 2018 04:28

Guys im sorry to say this but its not gonna be fixed its been two years or more now their not gonna do anything about it even if we spammed their tweeter,customer support pages its not gonna be fixed ever

By Gunrunner318 on 15 Aug 2018 00:14

Fortunately I never started these. Additionally, I do not want to provide false hope but there is always a chance. For instance, if they believe that not addressing these broken achievements could affect the sales of the upcoming Darksiders 3 in the slightest they will address them. Also I believe it will affect the sales to a certain extent as well. They just need to see that, if they do, there is a excellent chance the achievements will get fixed.

By Hexa Fox on 07 Sep 2018 04:45

LOL have fun

By on 05 Oct 2018 09:32

I will not be buying Darksiders 3 until this is sorted.

By JackBlaise on 16 Oct 2018 20:44

Just set up you email service / outlook on a timer to send daily emails to them.

By D34dBodyMan on 16 Oct 2018 21:21

Hate to say it, but I've given up all hope at this point that this will ever be fixed. I've messaged these people countless times. It's a waste of time honestly. Wish in one hand and shit in the other. See which fills up first. Protip: I hope your wish was that you had a skat fetish. It'll work out better for you that way.

By BloodGodAlucard on 16 Oct 2018 22:15

It's getting enhanced, so a patch is possible.

https://www.xboxachievements.com/news/news-31329-Darksiders-...

By Meltdown Hero on 02 Nov 2018 11:13

I was coming here to post that. lol If they don't fix this shit now, they literally have no excuse. They paid these devs to come in and tweak the code. So they had an opportune moment to fix this. Come on Nordic. Do the right thing. Years late. But I'll still give you props for fixing your screw up.

By BloodGodAlucard on 02 Nov 2018 11:18

Sadly I'm still pretty pessimistic they will fix it, they've had years now to do it.

By EarthboundX on 02 Nov 2018 11:59

They took the time to enhance a remastered game already, they better have actually fixed the achievement in the time it took them to do so. If not, then it's such a joke to even spend time enhancing it. And if by some miracle they actually did fix, I bet we will have to pay for the newly enhanced versions again instead of just having a patch for it.

By Loxim on 02 Nov 2018 14:47

Hopefully they take the time to fix it and don't break any others while doing so.

*fingers crossed*

By BigNev44 on 02 Nov 2018 17:12

@Goku Black XT Get that ass banned.

By BloodGodAlucard on 03 Nov 2018 00:35

Really? You're a bad troll. GTAB is a twitch meme btw. But seriously dude, don't post stupid shit and act surprised when someone responds in kind.

By BloodGodAlucard on 03 Nov 2018 06:57

If they finally fix this it will be one of the greatest and most anticipated moments of my achievement hunting career...and I will preorder Darksiders 3!

Does anyone know if the xbox ehanced patch has dropped yet?

By ClockWrkPhantom on 29 Nov 2018 23:54

@ClockWrkPhantom Not yet. Just checked.

By BloodGodAlucard on 30 Nov 2018 00:48

At least Darksiders III is completeable.. they're late with the enhanced patch for this though. Still got my fingers crossed it'll fix this one too.

By ROBBERT DHT on 30 Nov 2018 10:30

I take it no one has checked this as of late to see if anything has been fixed? If so, when I get home tonight I'll pop it in and see...kinda feeling like kicking Wicked K's ass again for the fun of it anyway...might as well kill two birds with one stone :)

By S1rJ0hn0fY0rk on 04 Dec 2018 20:37

If you search xbox one enchanted games. There is a list and it shows

Darksiders II Deathinitive Edition THQ Nordic enhanced logo 4k logo N/A Coming Soon

Use to say in development, now it says coming soon. So it may be going through xbox approvals

By D34dBodyMan on 04 Dec 2018 21:02

I still checked via normal gameplay...still no go. Started slamming THQ Nordic and Gunfire to see if either company has the ability to override the requirements provided all others have unlocked. Worth a shot especially after all this time

By S1rJ0hn0fY0rk on 06 Dec 2018 20:33

Just finish all achievments and BFA not unlocked. Please THQ fix it :'(

By Deadpool MnK on 14 Dec 2018 06:12

They aren't gonna fix it, they've had years to do so.

By EarthboundX on 14 Dec 2018 06:14

If they aren't going to do it in the wake of darksiders 3 they never will.

By Wookiee Hairem on 30 Dec 2018 03:04

This game is absolute garbage... That's all I can say. Hate it.

By NessNoldo on 06 Jan 2019 10:00

Yeahhh i think this is lost in the void at this point?

By DestructivDucky on 12 Jan 2019 22:46

THQ —or wherever their name is now— only cares the PS4 community. They fixed the achievement for PS4 version only, and we in Xbox One can't care less to that idiots.

By NessNoldo on 13 Jan 2019 05:56

@Nessnoldo thats old news it was 3 years ago PSN, but sadly its not the first game passed over on xbox. The Solus project, Perception and Styx Shards of Darkness achievements actually work on that platform. Those are just few that immediately come to mind.

By ClockWrkPhantom on 18 Jan 2019 06:47

So I'm going to just uninstall this game since I haven't started it anyway. If there happens to be a fix then I'll play and beat it before it breaks again. Pretty sad that its taken this long to fix a couple lines of code. Also pretty sure if I had access to Phil Spencer I'd ask to make this sort of thing a requirement that companies need to do in order to keep doing business with Microsoft and using their platform to sell their games on. Phil is all about the players and the community. If anyone wanted to give it a shot with him. Its not like we have anything to lose.

By BRUTAL Strykout on 10 Feb 2019 03:12

I sent a message to that people... Don't know if they will do a thing but they answered me. Maybe is better than nothing. Contact them massively and ask them to fix this. Maybe they take us seriously:

https://www.thqnordic.com/company/contact

This is the answer I got:

"Dear customer,

Unfortunately we don't know anything about future titles/patches/DLC-s or bug fixes but any client request and feedback about our titles are taken seriously and will be debated.

Thank you for your understanding and patience!

By NessNoldo on 11 Feb 2019 11:35

It's is not Nordic, it's is not Gunfire
It's the Achievement System pls contact Microsoft himself and why the Game Naruto to Buruto has the same Achievement and is a brand new Game and can't finisht it with the same BFA Achievement with unlock erverything in this Game, soooo please contact Microsoft for his Mistakes !!!!
And Styx: Shards of Darkness too unlock all Achievements. No One has it completed.
I don't know is it right. A Friend told me that and sry for my Bad englisch :/

By Deadzone Fight on 27 Feb 2019 17:15

Wrong. The achievement system on the One is a dumpster fire. But there are plenty of these bootleg platinum trophy achievements that work as intended. It's trashy game developers that just copy and paste the trophy code from the PS4 into the One version when doing lazy ports that are to blame for this bullshit. If they weren't so damn lazy to actually take the time to program the achievements properly instead of doing a quick and dirty port from the PS4, we wouldn't have these issues. Prime example of this problem is Soleil (the people that made Shinobi Striker) Lazy bastards don't even have the courtesy to acknowledge their incompetence. They just pass the buck to Microsoft or say it's user error. Screw them.

By BloodGodAlucard on 27 Feb 2019 17:26

Yes i thought thismtoo but he said me this and i was trying and well after 3 Years give i not up with the Achievement from these greedy Bastard's well I mean look it my Profil it's all completed every Singel Game on my List is finisht but 1 Game not -_- do you know how me that sucks with 99,99 % Profil. It's make me fucking angry when I see that everyday. You know :/

By Deadzone Fight on 27 Feb 2019 20:01

I completely agree with you both. It's unacceptable. But Microsoft won't do anything sadly. :(

By BloodGodAlucard on 27 Feb 2019 20:17

Good luck with that.

By Flames80 on 18 Mar 2019 21:01

Hey guys, have you noticed that the BFA achievement is now called Cum Laude? That's the name it had in the 360 version I guess. Do this means that it will work now?

By NessNoldo on 20 Apr 2019 05:26

Just checked the game. The achievement is still called BFA. It has that name on every Darksiders game. Maybe it's only called that in your region? Not sure. It definitely didn't get a name change from what I can see. And it's still unobtainable. 0.00% have it on the Xbox stat tracking unfortunately.

By BloodGodAlucard on 20 Apr 2019 07:02

Oh... Well. Maybe is a region thing. It had the BFA name before for me too, that's why I was expecting something positive, but seems that nothing has changed for good.

By NessNoldo on 23 Apr 2019 06:38

In case anyone was wondering...BFA= Built For Armageddon. Such a cool game, a shame they refuse to fix this.

By KJer25 on 15 May 2019 19:01

It is getting fixed today!!!

By Jarclan on 21 May 2019 17:15

First thing that popped on Facebook from darksider

What is Death may never die! 💀
We just released a new patch for Darksiders II - Deathinitive Edition on Xbox One:

- Fixes BFA Achievement
- Adds Support for Xbox One X (Native 4K)

#Darksiders #Deathinitive #BFA

By D34dBodyMan on 21 May 2019 17:24

Yes, in Twitter is the same, here is the link: https://twitter.com/darksiders/status/1130880470693158914?s=...
I'm gonna try as soon as possible

By LinKPePo on 21 May 2019 19:33

After all this Time. Can someone check it please?

By Xx DIKAU xX on 21 May 2019 19:35

This has been unlocked by 7btracked gamers. But shows no one has 100% the game yet. Could be TA did not update yet or THQ is auto unlocking it and people that didnt get the other achievements unlocked it first. Either way looks like we did it.

I will now buy DS3

By D34dBodyMan on 21 May 2019 19:38

YEEEEEES YEEEEES I FINALLY UNLOCK THE ACHIEVEMENT!!!!!!
I even have a couple of pictures, I have just unlocked It. How can I upload both pictures from my mobile phone? I Just load my save with all done and before the load ends the achievement pop up

By LinKPePo on 21 May 2019 19:43

Yep saw the same :
Latest patch that just released:
- Fixes BFA Achievement
- Adds Support for Xbox One X (Native 4K)

By Onsidic on 21 May 2019 20:01

Wow. I know it took a while, but this is awesome to see.

By Clockwerks on 21 May 2019 20:03

I'm mightily surprised, but in a good way.

By EarthboundX on 21 May 2019 21:57

Looks like I'll be starting this up now! Awesome news!

By The SCHWARTZ 00 on 21 May 2019 23:44

Just a head up, once the download was complete i could not sync with the server and had to use my save file on my xbox. luckily i never deleted the game. this shouldn't affect the achievement either way as long as you start a new game (if needed) linked to the gamertag with everything unlocked. (hopefully)

completion time: 1298 days 19 hours 58 minutes

By D34dBodyMan on 22 May 2019 00:12

fixed

By DesgraciaHumana on 22 May 2019 01:14

Never uninstalled this secretly hoping it'd eventually get patched. Downloaded the patch and the achievement popped on the file select screen. So glad this is finally fixed.

By blandmr on 22 May 2019 03:33

after loading only lvl 30 achivevement poped, i was like "WTF!! again???", but after second loading this one poped so yea, thats it :]

By morph Xlive on 23 May 2019 13:22

Finally I'll be able to start again now on the Xbox One =D Although I wish they could fix this on the xbox 360 version.

By Victor I3 on 24 May 2019 03:40

Now that it has been patched, all you need to do is load the game to get this achievement (assuming that is all you have left to do). No beating the final boss again or anything. Literally just boot the game and it pops.

By hobojesus84 on 24 May 2019 20:51

Damn, I just uninstalled it a days ago... But, hey, we can finally get this shit completed! Congrats everyone! We were united for this day to come! You're the best!

By NessNoldo on 25 May 2019 21:01

So has anyone been able to confirm that you can start this game from scratch and get this achievement?

By Hexa Fox on 26 May 2019 06:25

Is now patched, and the achievement is counting gamers unlocking it now, so it must be obtainable if you're starting from zero. Try it out.

By NessNoldo on 28 May 2019 16:34

Sadly I don't see this becoming a common thing. They really only fixed it since they were patching in the Xbox One X enchantments anyway.

By EarthboundX on 13 Jun 2019 06:54

Xbox One X “enchantments” made my day. Thanks.

By Big Ell on 13 Jun 2019 13:56

Bah, I knew I spelled enhancements wrong there, lmao.

By EarthboundX on 13 Jun 2019 21:40

wow took 3 years to make a few clicks to fix something?? its good its finally fixed but shouldnt of took that damn long not that im complaning am just saying

By Gunrunner318 on 04 Jul 2019 20:23

Thanks for confirming Healtti I just wanted to make sure. So there are other issues with the game?

By Hexa Fox on 06 Aug 2019 02:12

Can't server see I've 990/1000?
Any way to unlock this w/o downloading 15GB?

By benveg on 02 Nov 2019 19:49

You my friend, are a gentleman and a scholar! This achievement has been KILLING me, thanks for the update on the patch!

By Slyfoxzero on 25 Nov 2019 04:26

This is a load of bullshit why bother making a game if your not gonna fix anything for the people that sign your paychecks? THE CUSTOMERS this is a good way to make gamers not buy your products all because they dont wanna fix their own problems like rockstar for example i hada problem with la noire years ago and the guy at rockstar was a rude ass so itold em to take their games and shove em

By Gunrunner318 on 28 Mar 2017 01:23

Dear customer,

The game developers are aware of these issues and trying to find a solution to this problem as we speak.

Once the fix will be at hand it will be published asap!

Thank you for your understanding and patience!

Please feel free to contact us anytime.

Xbox one glitches Darksiders 2 DE

Related Game:
Darksiders 2

Message:
Xbox one has major glitches. 2 of them related to broken achievements :

EPIC reach level 30 is not retro active and many players are locked out from obtaining it since they are already level 30. new level 30 players are unlocking it fine.

BFA will not unlock at all even with EPIC... We believe it is do to the achievement"Pay It Forward -- Gift An Item To A Friend" from the original game... It may still be coded into definitive edition. with no way to mail an item to anyone.

The last is sound cutting out during combat.

Can someone please address this and give me a response, there are a few thousand people waiting on these achievements to be fixed and would like a update. Many of them on trueachievements are even boycotting DS3 until fixed.

can i please get an email response?

By D34dBodyMan on 06 Jun 2017 23:30

I recommend blowing up Megalofuck's twitter on the 27th this Friday which marks the 2 year anniversary of this game being broken. Hopefully, it'll solicite a response.

By HollabackGaming on 24 Oct 2017 22:46

nothing new, but something i noticed was that DS 2 is listed on the xbox x enhanced list. Me being optimistic hope that they are holding the patch/fix for the achievement to launch together with enhancement patch given the cost for each patch a company has to pay with each patch they release

By Holbath on 25 Oct 2017 09:16

By Gunrunner318 on 31 Oct 2017 00:56

It doesn't technically cost money to submit a game patch anymore. It used to back on the 360. But Microsoft removed that policy. But you have to realize the devs that worked on this game have long since moved on to other projects. So the publisher would have to hire some coders to come in and fix it. And they'd make no profit off of doing it. So it probably won't ever happen.

The one small chance of it getting fixed is the fact they said they're going to release an Xbox One X optimization patch at some point for the remasters before the third game comes out later this year. So they could slip it in with that if they deem it worth the extra effort. I wouldn't get your hopes up though.

By BloodGodAlucard on 21 Feb 2018 13:40

Wait to see for Darksider 3 achievements list. If have broken achievement or not. i always check to make sure achievement is not broken or glitch, bugged. you know what i mean? i will put my comment here later. Thumb up. :)

By on 14 Jul 2018 14:42

I hope that deadzone guy will still be around if they fix it,he was fun anyways its a total lack of respect this was to be my 4th bfa just hope d3 is good and deadzone guy is back in like 8years

By Redstraider on 28 Nov 2018 02:38

By BRUTAL Strykout on 10 Feb 2019 02:53

Still contact microsoft. They should force all developers to fix there achievements as it's part of the game and for some people the reason the bought the game.

By D34dBodyMan on 27 Feb 2019 20:15

Honestly guys I've really had it. I'm going to send their support team a message reminding them consistently to make this fix. It's been far too long and I honestly just want my 100% on this game. If you all want it as much as I do I urge you to do the same. I even saved a copypasta to my desktop to remind me whenever I saw it.

By Breach0fSanity on 17 Mar 2019 16:54

It's hopeless! They'll never fix it!
O ye of little faith!

Big ups to everyone who pestered the devs. And to those that kept reminding people in the comments. There's always hope!

Hexa Fox said:

Can confirm. Started post-patch, from scratch, and finished yesterday with no achievement related hiccups. The performance issues however...yeah, let's not talk about that.

By Healtti on 13 Jun 2019 06:12

It's just lines of code. There are a number of theories why these specific unlock all achievements ones don't pop. No one knows exactly unless the devs say. The fact of the matter is, they could have fixed it right away. But it isn't viewed as a priority. Most people don't care about achievements. So devs don't devote extra resources to fixing them after the fact some times.

In this game's case, they did patch the game several times post launch. But this just didn't make it into the list of fixes. Nothing to be done about it now I'm afraid. If they do follow through with that 4K patch, hopefully they'll fix it. If not, then it'll most likely never be fixed.

By BloodGodAlucard on 21 Feb 2018 14:20

Achievements are part of the game. If they come as part of the game it should work and microsoft should force developers to fix them. If you go through any games achievements on the xbox achievements list or on TA. 80% of gamers dont even complete the game they buy... they dont unlock "beat this game on any difficultly". 14% will beat the game once and never play it again. 5% will 100% the game. 1% will play the game for 2 years and become the best and make speed runs and put their self through hell to be the .001% to get that one achievement that's almost impossible.

The Mein leben achievement in Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus worth 785 pointsBeat the game on "Mein leben" difficulty

Game developers are going too make their game sales no mater what. They should be catering their achievements and and fixes to the 4% as we are the one that thoroughly beat the game and play it for everything the game offers. while removing the masochistic ones that only please the .01%

Nothing gamebreaking e.g. loss of progress. The few times it crashed to dashboard I can let slide. I do hate the framerate dips though. From a technical point of view the remaster of DS1 is in a different league. I bet Mike Ybarra & the backpat team would've done a better job if Nordic Games hadn't opted for a re-release...

Caveat: I haven't played the original 360 version of DS2. Perhaps my expectations were too high going in? As always, YMMV! :)

By Healtti on 07 Aug 2019 09:34

They honestly really do not care. These game developers make a crap load of money, and for some reason people fiercely defend them. There are so many people out there purchasing video games they could really care less. I am not certain whether this game released at full price or not. However, if it did you are talking about half a million dollars in sales just from the True Achievement community on a game that was basically a copy and paste.

If it released at half price then they made a quarter million dollars off the True Achievement community alone. So either way you look at this they made a crap load of money off a recycled game.

I already posted this in the Xbox 360 version for "Pay It Forward", but it looks like THQ Nordic is responding to posts on the Better Business Bureau website. I am not certain how something like this would be handled, but it might be worth considering. Here is the link for anyone interested:

How long did it take for them to reply to you. I recently sent them a message but they have yet to reply to it.

By CrimsonHuntz oG on 13 Mar 2019 23:54

Like a pair of hours. But don't know if they take it seriously. Anyway, the BFA achievement is now called Cum Laude, as what named in the 360 version, apparently. Will that mean that it works now?

By NessNoldo on 20 Apr 2019 05:23

This isn't a particularly hard game to Platinum, but doing things in the right order will make your life a lot easier!! This is what worked for me.

First playthrough
Beat the game on Normal difficulty. On this playthrough, you should also:
- Complete all side quests
- Collect all collectibles
- Pick up the other random trophies (like The Triple Lindy)
Essentially, by the end of this first play through you should have all but 6 of the trophies (BFA, Apocalyptic and Deathinitive difficulty trophies, Wicked K and Crucible trophies, and Level 30 trophy).

New game plus playthrough
Start your New Game Plus on Deathinitive difficulty. Sometimes the game locks up if you try to start your NG+ straight away - as long as you've beaten the final battle, then restarting the game and continuing your last save will prompt you to begin an NG+. The difficulty select is at the very first screen (with the Gamma settings, etc).
- Don't touch the difficulty AT ALL
- Run through the game again. You can skip the side quests and collectibles and just stick to the main story. The Death Tombs can be useful for possessed weapons, however. You will get the trophy for hitting level 30 probably mid-way through.
- The boss battles are the toughest part. Ensure you have decent resistance, and a good set of possessed scythes with (ideally) health steal/health on crit, some sort of elemental damage, crit chance boost and crit damage boost.
- Once the Well of Souls becomes available (the final battle), DON'T GO THERE JUST YET. Make a USB backup of your save file. This might not be necessary, but it's a helpful backup - the original version of the game sometimes deleted your save upon completing NG+.
- Finish the Well of Souls, giving you the trophies for beating the two toughest difficulty levels.
- If you can reload your save prior to the final battle, do so. Otherwise restore your save from your USB backup and load that. At this point, DROP THE DIFFICULTY TO NORMAL. The Crucible scales to difficulty level - it's a breeze on Normal but pretty tough otherwise.
- Now you can go and complete the two Crucible trophies. Upon getting these two, the platinum trophy BFA will drop!
