Xbox One achievements will not be recorded unless devs want it

4.5
Xbox One’s DVR recording function was said to capture every single achievement you unlock earlier this week. Microsoft has now clarified the matter to say that it’s a feature that devs need to turn on in their games first.

Microsoft’s Albert Penello took to NeoGAF to clarify the matter and said, “It won’t be automatic for every Achievement. It’s a feature that Developers can unlock for achievements, OR, for instance, have hidden in the game for doing something cool or discovering something hidden.

“Basically we allow developers access to GameDVR and they can put conditions on an automatic recording.

“But not every Achievement will automatically be recorded.”

Well, that puts an end to yet another Xbox One rumour. But still, do you think it’s a neat feature?

You'll still be able to mod achievements...it'll probably just be easier to see if you are modding them.


This will not stop them, lol

I hope it catches most of them though.


It will be interesting to see what happens seeing as using gamesaves isn't technically modding

What's the point in modding achievements anyway? It's not like you can do anything with the Gamerscore you get.

We'll unless it's an achievement the Devs want to keep secret, I don't know why they wouldn't enable recording.

Put its not like you would put it out for public view if you were modding. It stores it locally I would think.
