Trophy Rarity Oddity - Silver Rarer than Platinum???


Recommended Posts

This game is taking forever to download, I just got it in the latest PS sale.

 

I'm slightly alarmed to see this:

 

https://psnprofiles.com/trophies/5646-ark-survival-evolved?order=rarity

 

How can Master Zoologist (silver trophy - PSNProfiles; 3.04% rarity) be rarer than the Plat (PSNProfiles; 3.22% rarity)? It's definitely a main-game trophy and not DLC.

 

Cheating doesn't explain it, surely? So what is the deal here? Is the Plat itself glitched? As in, you can somehow unlock the Plat but not that trophy? Or has something gone a bit haywire on PSN Profiles (extremely doubtful)? 

 

I have never seen anything like this before - anyone have any ideas?

 

And my main concern - is this flaggable for cheating if it happens to you?

There have been a couple of threads about this already - but long story short is the devs added Master Zoologist into the base game trophy list around 6 months or so after the game released, which is why it's rarer than the platinum

 

Found one of the previous threads about it:

Thanks Mesopithecus. Sorry, I did have a look through the game forum thread list before posting but somehow missed that.

 

Interesting. Adding new trophies after launch is pretty rare right?

 

That's good news. Thanks for putting my mind at ease.

No worries, they weren't on the front page so easy to overlook.

 

It is pretty rare as far as I know, but definitely not flaggable so you're all good ^_^
