It works (did it on ps4) and that means this trophy will forever be achivable offline with this method

 

FWIW, I attempted to do this method offline on PS3 and the trophy did not pop.  I then tried connecting to PSN & Far Cry server and it popped after I redid the map while connected online.

Just got Community Surprise on my PS5.

Here are the Steps:

- Map Editor -> Assault -> Start Map Editor

- Set a Spawn Point (L2 -> Add Gameplay Objects -> Player Spawn Point)

- Add an Enemy (Add AI -> Enemy Wave 1)

- Set both anywhere

- Press Start -> Save -> A warning will show that the map has not passed validation tests -> Select Yes

- Save with any name

- Exit to main menu (might not be neccesary)

- Go to Map Editor -> All my Maps -> <Your Map> -> Play

- Kill the Enemy or get killed

- Trophy should unlock

 

Tested this on both PS3 and PS5. Didn't test this on PS4 but this should work there as well.

 

I don't know who you are,but you deserve all the love in this world

Thanks A MILLION! DUDDDDEEE!! This is INSANE!! How did you even think of / find out this method?!

Got me thinking if this method was there all along, all this time since the game launched, but just no one noticed / found it since there was no need.

Thank you again for sharing this, appreciated!!

So the plat is now 100% obtainable unless you have linked your ID to uPlay? Is there any way to unlink it? I’d love to get the PS3 online trophies done

Yes. You can unlink it through the Ubisoft websote. I have unlinked it and I've managed to get it.

 

Also, could anyone confirm you get can get it on the same account twice by using that trick on both PS3 and PS4? I did the PS3 version yesterday and I'd like to do the PS4 one as well

What a crazy method, but I'm real glad you found it! How'd you work it out?

What happens when you unlink? Can you relink them again later? I’ve done a number of Ubi games and don’t want to necessarily lose all the points/perks I have.

Why do you need to unlink the ubisoft account?

I tried it this afternoon on PS3, it worked fine with my uPlay linked.

Because the offline method for getting this trophy, doesn't work with it linked for some unknown reason.

I don’t think this can be done offline regardless of uPlay. You have to be online to upload your created map.

I never had to unlink mine when I did it. It seems to be another trophy affected by name change. 

 

Ubisoft servers are absolutely dog shite. 

I’m not sure I follow the name change part, but can confirm the workaround works perfectly and it doesn’t seem like you need to unlink

Unless I've completely misunderstood how the workaround actually works, I thought it just had you create and play a custom map without doing any online stuff at all?

Yes, that is correct, but you have to be online when you do it. So it’s not a true offline work around.

 

I’m not entire sure where the issue with uPlay comes in. It seems to work whether you have a uPlay account or not, and at least for me I didn’t have to unlink my PSNID from uPlay. Maybe that’s a PS4 version issue.

Not sure why but when I go to "Map Editor," I just get "This feature is currently not available. Please check back later."

Playing PS4 version on PS5

 

Edit: nvm, user error, it worked 

 

I tried to do it before an update has finished downloading 

 

Leaving this up in case anyone else makes that mistake lol

For anyone wishing to play the maps mode, I can confirm they are up working and trophy can be earned atm. I also attempted this a few days ago and got the unable to connect error so a warning the map servers are extremely unreliable and may not always work.

I just tested the multiplayer for a few hours and it was a nice surprise. I might have been lucky but it worked smoothly, not a single server crash. Finding enough persons to play with was the only issue to be honest. Also got my online trophies without any problem, so you might want to do the same before the servers are permanently shut down.
