Character Configuration, UI Settings, General, "Display achievements nearing completion upon login." Except mine is off and they still show up when I log in, so whatever.

There is currently no way that this option can be removed. Something we'll need to complain about until JP sees the error of their ways.

Same here. Get rid of it please. And the achievement notice in the corner of the screen each time I teleport into an area where I have achievements not fulfilled. If I wanted to complete the achievements/see where I am on them, I would just look them up myself.

This is so annoying. It's a distraction that pops up and counts down at me with every area change and it makes me very unhappy. Why is this being forced on us? It's fine to make it an option, but I personally don't know anyone that wants this and forcing us all to see it a thousand times a day just makes me wonder about what other games are out there.

Count me in with the complaint OP. Its nice to have such a list but if you make such changes please also put an option in, where people can turn it off.

Oh FFS that's irritating. I didn't really observe it until now because I've mostly been bouncing around in cities, which don't seem to display it (and I'm also on my laptop with a generally smaller screen than I'm used to). Yeah, get rid of this SE, or include an option to disable these notifications. I'm not at all sure why this wasn't lumped into the existing 'Recommendations' feature, too; the Notifications UI element has never been used for things of this nature.

THIS NEEDS FIXED NOW!!!! I can't believe they thought this was a good idea

SE, if you're going to add to or change the UI in any way at all, you absolutely must provide an option in the settings to control the visibility, or allow it to be turned off completely.

This is very basic, and it's completely unacceptable that no option to turn it off was included in this patch.

I'm VERY OCD when it comes to how my screen looks. Having a damned green alert always showing up every time I go somewhere really makes me frustrated

I hate this stupid achievement pop up. I've miss clicked on it when trying to do teleports or open my ques. This is infuriating. SE, stop putting stuff in that's dumb and annoying.

Adding my vote for an actual option to turn these off. It's bloody annoying and if I wanted to do the achievements I'm perfectly capable of finding them through the menus.

I keep thinking I’m being invited to a Linkshell.

Yes please let us turn this nuisance off

I get the idea behind this, but I don't want it popping up every time I switch zones. Like at least do either:
a) Allow it to be turned off entirely. I already ignore FC invites that do this.
b) Put a "only tell me about X" radio button next to the achievement you want the notice for.

Like I really don't care about the notices for FATE's especially they they haven't spawned. Is it so hard to stick this on the "recommendations" instead?

Guess we need ANOTHER maintenance to fix simple quality of life issues.

Why not fix the garbage network with NTT while we are at it?

I have that turned off in the UI and I'm still getting the login window as well as the current area notice that started popping up after maintenance. I wish they would stop trying to "Improve" stuff like this and work on the stuff the players want.

Adding my voice here. I personally don't care for achievements. I especially don't care for them when they're foisted upon me. Sure, there's an option to have it not display, but it simply DOES NOT WORK.

Oh gosh, something was broken on release and it wasn't immediately fixed? Utter garbage. Game deserves to be sued into oblivion and shamed for ever having existed.

Dude, this is about the most basic QA on the planet. You introduce a new 'feature', you go to the trouble of creating an option that supposedly turns things off, and you don't even check to see if it fucking works? Moreover, it's pretty much the only UI change you made; it's not like there are dozens of System changes to test. And, this actually goes back to the design phase: some genius thought it was a good idea to co-opt the Notifications area for a 'feature' that should have been placed in the Recommendations area that they built for... oh yeah... recommended things to do.

Certainly it's a small enough issue that the sky isn't falling, but mocking people who are rightly ripping SE a new one for incompetent execution is absurd.

SE likes to introduce 'features' that no one asked for and no one needed, and then make sure there's no way to turn them off or revert. I have a long laundry list of QoL issues with the game that one day I'm going to type up and post, but just looking at it really depresses me and makes me seriously consider cancelling. I don't say that lightly - it's been weighing on my mind heavily lately. I love my friends and my guild and don't want to leave them, but there is just so little to genuinely enjoy about this game anymore.

It feels like amateur hour anymore.

Time for a patch that addresses this trash window. Good with achievements. Don't need to see this.

Didn't want it. Don't need it. Someone may like it. I do not. Let me banish it to the seven hells where it belongs.

I like both of the new achievement features (though I don't know why they don't have a basic one to let me choose a few I want to see in its own tracker window at all times....Such a simple feature that a lot of MMO's have and it would help with tracking ones that are not area-specific). As an achievement hunter, I'm the target audience of such additions and I very much welcome them.

But that being said, I get why other people wouldn't like it and there may be times where I might want to turn it off and then back on if I know I'll be doing a lot of area changes for non-achievement hunting purposes (like Hunt trains).

So...pretty please, feature to turn off/on the login popup and the area notice so people can fit to their needs?

This is annoying because it looks like a ready check when really it's not.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but mine hasn't popped up very often at all. I only saw it at the Gold Saucer and in Idyllshire.

I remember seeing this in the patch notes and thinking how utterly dumb this idea was. I'd much prefer an option in the achievements menu to look up which ones are near completion.

Even more frightening to think about is the amount of time and resources allocated to make this silly option happen. Several instances of two steps forward, and two steps back in this patch from the devs, but still very good for the most part.

Or an LS invite. I actually thought it was one until I noticed the absurdly short timer.

I think having it not as an option initially was on purpose. New patch, lots of new and returning people. Some achievements (like Azim Steppe FATEs (multiple)) are hard to do or even know about. If you’re reminded you haven’t done it and the zone is popular once more, you may be able to get people together to do it. I personally like the notification, didn’t realize I was only 5 turn ins from finishing up at the adders for example, might actually go and do it now!

omg turn this shit off pls enix its fucking anoying! Its the same as forced add spam on the internet and I detest it and it only makes me walk away. Give us an option at least come on, ur just being rude now

I don't have a problem with it

What’s infuriating is that there IS an option to supposedly turn it off:
Character Configuration > UI Settings > General > Achievements (at the very bottom)
“Display achievements nearing completion upon login.”

...except mine is unchecked, meaning that they shouldn’t show when I log in (much like I don’t want Recommendations showing), yet they still do. Actually make this function work as its supposed to, AND give us an option to disable the Notice pop-up when we zone into an area that has incomplete achievements. Some of us work on these on our own time, and others just downright don’t care. I’m fine with the feature being there, but let me control if I want to see it or not.

im okay with this , i think its nice addition, but i can feel others, it should be lockable

Wonder who had this brilliant idea to implement a distracting and annoying pop-up without the option to turn it off.

If you already did all the achievements in the area that would have triggered it, it doesn't show up.

But there are different letters on it. And the color is different, too.

That option is for a bubble on the bottom right that lasts for 30 seconds when you log in (just like the new current area achievement bubble.) Having it checked gets rid of the more annoying login popup box.

Personally I'm a fan of it but I'm shocked there isn't an option to turn it off.
