Just Cause 3 Bragging Rights Trophy Fix


ItsNferno

Recommended Posts

So as many of you know, the leaderboards on Just Cause 3 are broken. This is making it impossible for people to get the Bragging Rights trophy and finish the platinum, but I found a glitch that will fix this and allow anyone to get the Bragging Rights trophy, so all credit for the discovery of this glitch goes to me, ItsNferno. Feel free to repost this glitch on YouTube if you'd like, but remember to give me credit in the video. For this glitch, you will need a friend along with yourself with Just Cause 3 to be online at the time of doing this glitch. 

Step 1: You and your friend want to start up the same challenge.

Step 2: Both you and your friend will need to press options to pause the game.

Step 3: You need to remove your friend from your friend list and then have them accept a new friend request all while the game is paused, if you or your friend quit the challenge before earning the trophy you will both need to perform the glitch again.

Step 4:  After your friend has accepted the friend request, you can unpause the game and beat each other's scores for the trophy, if you fail you can always retry, but the glitch will need to be completed again if you quit the challenge.

 

To find players to do this method, use Gaming Sessions.

The thread title is misleading - it's not a "fix" as such, but rather a (no doubt temporary) exploit that happens to unlock the trophy in question.  A "fix" implies that the developers have corrected the issue themselves.

 

Still, this could help anyone who still needs the trophy.  I should maybe jump on this myself, in case this method does get patched.  I'd hope that the devs would put more focus into fixing the leaderboards though, so that the glitch would become redundant.

It isn't really misleading anyone, it's just poor wording.

How is this broken? I got it legit not to long ago (3rd of august). I had extended leaderbords and beat someone that is not in my friends list.

Well, for me the leaderboards are completely empty, no one on it except my own score

And there are loads of people with the same issue

I tried this on two different races and beat my friend's score each time, the trophy didn't pop.  He was showing up on the leaderboard in the comlink while in the challenge but wasn't on the challenge leaderboard at the retry screen.  Is this the issue?

i don't know, just make sure you follow all the steps correctly. If you're still having the issue, maybe try it with a different friend.

I tried this method with a friend doing a Scrapyard Scramble and it did not work.  We tried again doing the "Sky Terror" DLC mission and it worked.  I did see his name in the leaderboard after I died during my first attempt and retried the challenge.

Got this today! ItsNferno thanks for saving this Platinum!!!!! It seems the only way it works as the leaderboards are broken. We have to thank you as Avalache was not able to give us a solution...

You're welcome! xD I honestly can't believe that a random gamer on the internet fixed an issue that a triple-a game company couldn't fix :D

i helped lars a few minutes ago and we can confirm that. crash bomb works as well.

We indeed tried the landrace Sunrosa Sprint or something like that twice, that didn't work. But i got it on the Lighthouse Blast challenge, where you have to drive a Quad with explosives into a parking place or something. This challenge is in the first region (Baia) of the game so everyone can get there quickly. You just have to beat the score your friend sets for you atm of playing. Not a previous score, @Facas was already on the leaderboard with a score of +18000 and i scored less then that and still got the trophy
