ShadeSplit Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 The PSN app launched yesterday and it displays the rarity for every game, not just PS4 games. The numbers look accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CactusFantastic Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Finally something official from Sony. I've already been messing around on it, works pretty well so far.Also - this is my 100th PSNprofiles.com post! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goro Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Nice!! This is between EVERY PSN User too and not just the ones that registered their name on PSNP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piggie_Pie Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 accurate... yes probably within itself (meaning all PSN users) but different from this site... example: Tales of Xillia Platinum PSNP is 8.3% PS app is 1.6% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes i agree... what im saying is that the PS app is more accurate because it captures all PSN users not just those who are registered here on this site. Im not sure exactly how it works but i think this site only calculates rarity based on how many people actually have played the game where the PS app calculates everyone no matter if they've played the game or not... both are right.... its all relative.

That is definitely not the case. Do you really think more than 77% of people that have a PSN ID have played LittleBigPlanet for the Vita? How about more than 50% having played Overlord II for the PS3? It's definitely only tracking those that have played the game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't "think" anything... im just trying to figure out why there is such a difference between this site and the PS app... the percentages are way different and im just trying to figure out why... but you said "That is definitely not the case" but then you said "Its definitely only tracking those that have played the game." and that was what i was trying to say so im a little confused i guess... what i THINK you are saying is that the difference between this site and the app is that this site only calculates users on this site but they both calculate based on if you've played the game... That makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shervink Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Thanks, didn't even know it existed... Now I can view trophies without exiting the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes sense. That's correct. The reason why all of the percentages on this site are higher is because it only tracks those IDs that have been added to the database. Whereas the PSN app uses all IDs, making it accurate. The IDs in the database on this site tend to be those of people that put more effort into earning trophies.

Kirbz Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 I don't understand how the rarity thing works, but I don't mind it either. Most of my plats are around 0.3% rare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goro Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Dafuq? I can't download the app because it's "not available in my country"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadeSplit Posted November 14, 2013 Author Share Posted November 14, 2013 I don't understand how the rarity thing works, but I don't mind it either. Most of my plats are around 0.3% rare It works the same way it does on any site that has a rarity number. These are just official numbers, so naturally they are all lower as they are including everyone that has played each game and not just certain people that have played each game.
