Atomic Heart launched on consoles and PC last week, with Rich calling it “a strong, albeit imperfect, first-person experience” in his Atomic Heart review.
From a trophies perspective, however, it is an absolute mess.
Aside from the fact that it’s an open-world game featuring collectibles, with no way to revisit some previously accessible areas - which is a nightmare for collectibles in the first place - it now appears that the game is incredibly broken when it comes to a good chunk of its trophies.
As it stands, every time you logout of the game, it seemingly resets your progress for a handful of collectible and progression trophies. This bug relates to various collectible trophies, such as (and not limited to) the Chirper collectible trophy (Burning Ears) and all of the Testing Ground trophies, but also trophies like Weapon Master and Hothead - and like I said, it’s not just exclusively those, either.
There are workarounds to getting these trophies, however, and that’s to not shut the game down, which is hardly ideal for a game that takes 40 hours to complete. There are even exploits in place to get these trophies, proving that it’s a mess across the board.
These exploits involve prepping a save just before you pick up a collectible like a Chirper, then picking it up, and then reloading the game to repeat this process over and over again, until it pops.
In short, when it comes to the trophies, Atomic Heart is an absolute shitshow.
We’ve reached out to Mundfish for a comment and are yet to hear back. However, in a post yesterday on its Steam page, it did note that “various achievements fixes… will become available with the next upcoming patches.”
So, if you’re looking to play Atomic Heart, I’d wait until they’ve fixed the bugged trophies.
