    If a game like Rfactor 2 can have them I dont see why this game cant. It can promote more people to play longer to obtain these goals. I have posted this before, figured I would repost it.

    The game has trading cards for steam just seems like it should have achievements by now.

    Steam achievements would be nice to have, but are not that necessary imho

    It all comes down to the development priority list - in a perfect world every feature appealing to every gamer would be included in every game. For an arcade game I assume achievements are a high priority, for a gaming "sim" (racing, flight, etc.) my guess is achievements are further down the list. If it came down to further VR, triple-screen, or multi-class racing improvements/functionality vs. achievements I wonder what a feature request poll would indicate. I think the "average" sim type gamer plays for the same challenges of the IRL sport, not virtual game trinkets.
    Just a discussion, I don't make or have a say in what the majority would like to see in their game. I personally don't think about achievements until reminded and don't see their value, but then again I'm a long-time sim racer that started before achievements (or Steam).

    Yepp, I would love to see'em come. I keep pestering Reiza about it because AMS is advertised as having them. I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for them in Raceroom but you never know. I'm pretty sure from a business standpoint the work it would require would be worth it in terms of marketability on Steam.

    Game doesn't have Steamworks integration yet, so extremely unlikely.

    We got those worthless ass Trading cards so I'd guess Achievements are doable.

    It's true: they aren't necessary, but nowdays almost every games have achievements, so it would be nice to have them also in R3E... :grimacing:
