rw540 Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 This is re: the PS4 version I just bought. I have a couple of PSN accounts that show each other as friends. And when I set a time with one and beat it with the other, I'm Ahead hasn't popped. Neither Daily nor Weekly challenges seem to work on this. Did Ubisoft somehow block people "self boosting"? Or is this a glitch? Wondering if anyone else has had this problem or has any ideas? RW540 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll likely take a few more days of people playing the game to see if it's a widespread problem but looks like you aren't the only one. I've only played the PS3 version and had no problems nor have I heard of anyone having problems with previous-gen versions. I'd certainly try it 'legit'/boosting though and see if that leads to it unlocking. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rw540 Posted February 21, 2014 Author Share Posted February 21, 2014 Thanks. None of my friends have got the game, so I'll have to look at the regular boosting technique, assuming people have bought the PS4 version! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregnied Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 I am also having this problem, I finally got i'm Ahead to pop, my leaderboards were not showing my friends at all and I know many of them are playing this game and the challenges. I finally got close enough to one of their scores that their ghost started to appear in my game and when I beat it I finally got the trophy. Something is definitely not right with the friend leaderboards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hansel Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Yep, not working here either. I can see friends have set times, but there's no ghost and no leaderboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H0nkyfac3 Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 i had a problem with this also the first couple of days. finally got the I'm ahead to pop yesterday. not sure if their ghosts was playing at the same time or not. my theory right now is if it is tied to ghost somehow, once you start a challenge and pause you can set ghost to friends only. should make it easier to make sure you are beating your friends score. i could be way off on this though.

jn_pvfc91 Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 There's a thread on the official forums and a lot of people are having problems. Trophies aren't unachievable but they DO seem to be tied to the ghosts. Interesting details you may not be aware of if you've just bought this on PS4: the PS3 version was beset with server problems for months, they finally fixed this (for now it's working at least) and said they had made an adjustment (or words to that effect) and had resolved the issue. Now around that time the ghosts seemed to stop functioning properly (I'd never had a single problem with ghosts before this time) but the servers ran perfectly so no complaints from me. Pure speculation here but it may be that the ghosts were causing server problems and by 'turning off' the ghosts they fixed the servers but broke a couple of trophies. I repeat that this is me speculating but may be a possible explanation behind the problems you're having. Open Support tickets with Ubi explaining in as much detail as possible the problems you're having. The more people who do this, the more likely you'll get a fix!

Alvin Fox Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 I miss the ghosts. They made the time trials easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rw540 Posted February 22, 2014 Author Share Posted February 22, 2014 Geez, this looks to be one pain in the ass..... anyway, submitted a ticket on my issue. I guess I won't hold my breath on this. I suppose I could do friend requests of EVERYONE, and hope someone shows up as the ghosts I'm playing, and that I can beat their times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose I could do friend requests of EVERYONE, and hope someone shows up as the ghosts I'm playing, and that I can beat their times There is previous on this game that goes back months... welcome to the party haha! Still we've had some good discussions on this website and on the Official Forums (about half of my posts on this website have been about this game). You'd think the grind would be bad enough but Ubi seem determined to cock up at every turn just to lose the committed fans' goodwill even further. Not to sound too dramatic but at this rate Ubi are nailing shut the coffin on a fine platforming series due to a catalogue of poor decisions and that would be a real shame.

Sadistikal Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 I got the "Beat One Friend" one to pop the other night, but in reality by how it sounds I should have had it the day after launch and should be close to (probably over) the 30 one by now. I am kinda curious if the "Challenge Friends" little envelope in the top-right corner has any factor? I always send it out after posting my first dump score each day, anyone else do this?

breathofwater Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 im having trouble with this on ps4 too. i hope we can figure out exactly what is needed to get it to work. ive been experimenting with turning ghosts from friends/all/none as well as sending out challenges but no luck yet.

Alvin Fox Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Just a shot in the dark, but could it make a difference if you're playing against friends on PS3 while you use a PS4 (or vice versa) as opposed to challenging a friend on the same system?

Joertjeuhn Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I'm also having troubles. My friends can see and beat me, but I can't see my friends on the scoreboards. I have some gold, silver and bronze medals, but the trophy didn't pop where I have to beat 1 friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMonkeyBunch Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Having the same problem... Finished ahead of multiple guys on my friends list but the trophy didn't pop. They wouldn't show up as ghosts either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrankyPanda Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I wonder if it has something to do with you having more than 100 friends. I had 107 friends, deleted some people to get to 99, and now some more of my rayman legend friends are appearing on the leaderboards. 100 friend issue was an issue with Ubisoft on AC4.
