    Already been answered in quoting the OP by K4.

    No DLC achievements, is what the company announced.
    Yeah yeah. Fool me once.

    I bought a bunch of FX3 and I still have to play them. I will pass here.
    games are almost the same thing. I purchased the same bundle a while ago and I regret it

    Zen won't get another penny/cent from me. I've got FX, FX2 and FX3 with extra tables. There are other cheaper and better pinball games on the XBox, Zaccaria for one which often goes on sale.

    Zaccaria is terrible, unless you like mostly EM games, it is very boring.

    The Pinball arcade is even worse, made by the company that made Action 52 lol.

    There really is not a better pinball game on Xbox than Pinball FX. This game is great, and the emulation is spot on.

    Im not getting into another pinball game on xbox. They are achievement black holes. New tables means more cheevos and more and more money. The tables like never carry over and i swear tables ive bought in games disappear or something. They are fun but if i really wanna play ill torrent it or sum f all that

    Why they decided to not honor previous purchases really boggles my mind! I would've gladly paid a fee to carry over my previously bought FX2 and 3 tables and I think a lot of the fanbase would. As of now, I stick with what I have and ain't going to bother with the new release.
    Indeed would pay a one off fee to transfer the license' over. Think I will be doing the same and giving this a miss

    Done all the achievements now except for the diamond/gold event trophy. I'm around top 2-3% so I guess I just need to check in on the game in 11 or so days for when the assigned Event ends. I don't believe the others count. It's just the 1 event that counts at a time.

    I have FX3 with just 1 remaining achievement for 100% that I can't complete as THEY need to host a tournament for a table I have. It's been a year and they have not hosted a tournament with the included tables or the one DLC I purchased. I wouldn't give them another dime at this point.

    I do have to say the old pinball FX achievements were some of my favourites ever - the way the award would fly into the screen and pause while the "ding" sounded off was pure dopamine. The fact the new version doesn't have any table specific achievements is criminal.

    The devs stated there won't be additional achievements this time around. Read this full article to see it mentioned :)
    This aged poorly... I gave this one a go after the others have killed my completion percentage since it would be DLC achievement free... Seems the devs realized they'd probably get more sales by tacking achievements on. I just completed it this past Thursday too. angry

    I gave up on my last achievement. I went through 2 months of their subscriptions and still couldn't make it over the line for gold.
