If there were no glitches and you would need to do everything 100% legit as the devs intended, it would be brutal. But that is not the case. You can skip or cheese so many hard spots in this game, it's beyond ridiculous. Since the devs never patched any of this, I actually believe they programmed it to be like that. To have the community find out about all these things. And if you actually have to fight, the AI is dumb as fuck. There are maybe 3 or 4 spots in the whole game, where you actually need to rely on your FPS Skills to get through. Most fails happen because you make a dumb mistake and not because it's insanely hard. Crash 4 however.... Well I haven't played it since Jump N Runs are not my cup of tea. But from what I see you really need to master the game and give a 100% all the time and it's really skill dependent. This This This and this, this guy right here made the perfect commentary about what wolfenstein 2 really is. I am not saying it is a easy plat by any means, it is hard as fk, but very very far away to be a 10 out 10. A 8 on my opinion. The skips and camping spots, and rushing with double fully upgraded shotguns on some parts make this game a only matter of controlling your nerves, like he said most of the times you died its because you did a stupid mistake, and people get mad and dont realize how stupid they were hahaha, mostly of the times its not RNG 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is probably also due to the PS4 jailbreak. Yeah, ridiculous how many cheaters there are. Some PSV and PS3 games have like 60% global rarity for trophies that should be under 1% lol. And then outside of the mobs of CFW cheaters, you have people who use Save Wizard or pay others to earn their trophies for them. Steam is also horrible with this, with some games having over 90% of the earners of an achievement having cheated it (some games are just clearly way off and others actually have in-game stats/leaderboards so you can confirm what percentage are cheaters). I guess that's what happens when you have something like SAM where earning any achievement just takes a single click. Unfortunately with a game like Super Meat Boy, you have little way to know if the trophies are earned legitimately or not since they are so flexible in timing and order. And while others are doing doesn't affect me and other legitimate players directly, it does collectively obfuscate the global rarity when such a huge proportion are cheaters, and it does cloud the difficulty when you don't know who has done it legitimately and who has cheated. Not really sure what people get out of cheating for a .jpg where the entire appeal is in the actual effort of earning it, but I guess it's just for clout and at any cost for a lot of those on the leaderboards.

What could be the point of wasting so much money if they can get complete stacks of plats on a few minutes with just a few bucks? They don't care about rarity, so any plat counts... This is just for the wannabes in the middle that want to cover hundreds of ezpz plats with a hard one... Believe me, I know and I have questioned the motivation. My conclusion is similar to socialmedia addiction, coupled with bragging rights and , maybe, disposible income. You just can't let go. Many top rankers get visibility for streaming as well.

Popular Post Arcesius Posted August 10, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 10, 2021 Are we really having people here claim things like "over 50% of achievers on PSNP have bought the platinum" without providing any kind of proof whatsoever, and we just let those statements stand like that? ? Holy shit. It's like the SMB thread all over again where people claimed most achievers are cheaters because the rarity went up from 0.19% to 0.2%. I'm not claiming there are no cheaters. There clearly are. But to imply that over half of the achievers didn't do it legit is going a bit too far in my opinion. Especially if you cannot back those claims up. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on the game, the platform, and if you're talking about PSNP or global. Something like a difficult Vita game global stats then it's like 90-95% or more of global achievers are cheaters for something like that, same for many Steam achievements. But for PSNP, it's harder to tell since cheaters are removed. There are some lists that are outright impossible and just haven't been removed yet, there are some that are really suspicious but not technically enough to be impossible and removed, and others with nothing suspicious by leaderboard standards but they had someone else do it for them (which is allowed by leaderboard standards). It's hard to know the exact amount but I wouldn't be surprised if it was near or above 50% cheaters for something like SMB even here on PSNP, just because it's both really difficult and very easy to cheat as 1) it's a PS Vita so you can cheat it CFW 2) the trophy order and timings are very flexible and 3) there's no grind or anything time-consuming so it's a popular choice when it comes to buying Plats. I think you really underestimate just how widespread cheating is; you have multiple different types of cheating when it comes to trophies: CFW cheaters, PS4 Save Wizard cheaters, save download cheaters, and Platinum buyers (the latter being allowed by leaderboard standards, but I would still consider it cheating).

Especially if you cannot back those claims up. I'm not just claiming it. I know it, because I sold MANY mein leben trophies for years and I always had competition. I only sold legit trophies and since the full PS4 jailbreak I stopped selling trophies completely. Of course, I estimated, but based on data to which I have access and that I will not make public for obvious reasons. Just to be clear. Of course I will not name anyone who has bought from me or anyone who hasn't bought from me. So no one needs to ask me about this, not even privately. The reason why I shared this fact is because I think the community has a right to know that. Btw no one said over 50%. Since I wasn't the only one selling mein leben trophies, I gave a realistic estimation based on my data accumulated over 3 years. Of course, no one knows the exact numbers, but it's definitely a significant amount of purchased trophies.

Rias Gremory Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 To put this in layman's term, it's been 4 years since it released and nothing has changed. Decrease or increase for the rarity. Mein Leben is the ONLY trophy blocking people's path to platinum it. Hence, even I had quite the handful of many deaths getting in my way to platinum it.

Even though buying legit plats would not be against the rules on this site. Still, that would need to be over 400 bought platinums...

About the rarity, indeed, many have done it legit. The top rankers usually leave Wolf 2, SMB or Injustice 2 for milestones among the heaps of thrash games. Personally, I have done Mein Leben 6 times, and have 3 on stream. Don't much care for bragging rights and all successful runs were for myself (I didn't sell them.) I love the game. Trophy selling became an income alternative for many during the pandemic. I do not blame them but it's clear that ranking players is not accurate.
