I wanna come clean about my achievements in Dead by daylight, CSGO and Payday 2

I believe it's my DBD achievements that caused the ban but I'm not 100% sure so please tell me if there's something else.

in DBD I felt the grind was too much so I downloaded a save file online that gave me 600k blood points and an III-lvl50 character. I've re-locked the achievements that I think were affected and since deleted the save-file.

in Payday 2 I've used a cheat interface that let me restart levels faster, this has since been integrated into the base game. It also lets me use skins and weapons that are DLC, loot box locked, event or time locked so that I could get achievements that are virtually impossible to get. it also lets me start levels from a menu instead of waiting for a random one hoping it's the correct. this last one has since also been integrated into the base game.

In CSGO I've used custom map files to quickly get achievements like "win 5000 games on X map" and also to get achievements that can no longer be achieved due to map/update limitations.
I have discovered that I accidentally messed up when I tried to re-lock my achievements on CS-GO that I reset the timestamp on a lot of Achievements and have sent a ticket to steam support to correct this mistake.

Hi Sonycc, let's see if we can fix some of the issues you are having here. To start off, i believe dead by daylight is fine now that you have reset the achievements for it. If you haven't reopened the game since relocking them and deleting the save, can you please do so to check for auto unlocks on startup?

CSGO is one of the more common games that are messy after resetting achievements if not done properly. If we are going to get that one successfully relocked, i believe you will need to both relock all of the achievements and reset the statistics for the game completely. The end result should be that when reopening the game, no achievement unlock, which would most likely happen if you did not reset the statistics. Using the custom maps for quick wins is allowed, as well as the ones for the maps.

Because you used a cheat program for pay day 2, you will need to fully reset the game and its statistics as well. The only way to do this will be for you to fully reset the in game progress, and then reset the achievements and statistics (in the relock program) afterwards. The following link will bring you to a mod that will allow you to wipe the game's progress: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/ ... =753301607

After looking through the rest of your games, i found some that i want to ask you about so we can avoid issues popping up for you in the future.
-Bioshock infinite has a cluster that should not be possible in normal game play
-Spermination has all of the unlocked achievements at the same timestamp. Looking at other people's achievements for this, it does not look like this is normal.
-SUPERHOT has all of the achievements for completing "x" area/the game unlocked together
-Fallout 4 has a couple of clusters with completing certain quests/actions
Do you know what may have happened with these?

Looking at the timestamps and checking with some texts it seems like these were all games that I played on the cabin. I know that Fallout 4 and superhot have a lot of achievement that probably never got detected due to this.

The exception is Sperminator which for some reason didn't give me any achievements until after I downloaded it on a different computer and launched it there.

Ah, so you did not have any internet connection during that time? That would make sense. Once you have relocked csgo and payday 2 successfully, let me know and i'll be able to mark this as complete . Don't forget to open the games afterwards to check for any that unlock on startup.

I've wiped my payday 2, CSGO and DBD progress.

CSGO seems to be fine same with Payday 2 but DBD has changed their save system so anything is keept on their servers now.

They changed the way they save the game months ago to stop people doing things like this, the saves are stored on the DBD servers, the local ones still existed if you played before then but they never updated anymore.

Your stuck where you are and the only way to derank is to eaither run to the killer and sacrifice yourself quicky, stand in a corner as the killer letting the survivors do the gens and leave or DC a few tmes when you hit the limit of where you want to be, I have seen quite a few streamers DCing to stay in the green ranks of late but they normally play the game fully and only do it on the last hook or if they are about to go through the exit gate so as not to ruin the game for everyone else.

EDIT: I had a few hiccups with PD2 but it seems to have resolved itself after using a different mod loader.

I did some searching around and I'm thinking that the only way to fix your dead by daylight will be to submit a ticket to the dead by daylight support team to have them completely reset your progress. I've checked the other two games and updated them on the trackers to reflect that you have relocked them successfully.

Since your dead by daylight is already invalidated on AStats, i can go ahead and mark this as complete and get you verified in the server, rather than wait for an unknown amount of time for their support team to answer you. I'll be contacting you several times a week to ask if there has been any progress with the dbd support, too. Thanks for your patience with the appeal process!

I would also advise not playing dead by daylight until the issue has been resolved.
