Prester John Achievement Not Working?

[Meowschwitz]

I recently completed the Prester John Achievement of owning Alexandria, Antioch, and Constantinople as Ethipoia. However the achievement is not popping for me. Is this a known issue or new?

All the provinces are cored.

1.9 achievements are in steam but not able to be achieved right now.

Here is the list of achievements coming in the next patch (1.9).
They will start working once the patch is out.

I'm not actually sure if you'll just be able to load up that save once 1.9 drops, or if you'll have to do it over. I don't know enough about how EU4 achievements work.

He'll have to do it again.

Anyways, Paradox does it like this (puts achievements up before patches hit) in order to test them.

Couldn't he technically sell one of his provinces and then get it back when patch 1.9 hits?

No that wouldn't work.

Achievement checks are made at the start of the game. As the 1.9 ones don't exist in the game files, they aren't checked at the game start. He could of course refine his strategy

This is kind of annoying for the people that aren't on the forum since they don't know that the achievements aren't live.

+1. If an achievement isn't live, PI should put something that indicates such is the case.

OP should probably just hack that achievement in, because as-represented he did in fact achieve it :/.

Thanks for the replies. I had no idea the achievements were not working yet, I sure look like a fool now.

Don't worry, you're not the first, you won't be the last.
