wyansas Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Hey all. Don't know if this has been posted before. I assume the trophy rarity percentages on this site are calculated as a percentage of the total number of profiles updated on this site. But if you download the official PlayStation app onto your smartphone, it shows you the true rarity percentage of a trophy against the entire PSN. So, for example, my rarest trophy, the Ninja Gaiden Sigma + platinum, has been obtained by 0.2% of people who have played that game and synched their Vitas to the PSN. The rarity percentage of that trophy on this site is 1.21% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xzero4812 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 ya this site can only track those who are registered to this site whereas playstation app tracks everyone with an internet connection on psn but you would also have to take in consideration that there are people that dont have internet to sync throphies as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wyansas Posted January 9, 2014 Author Share Posted January 9, 2014 (edited) so what? this site has more hardcore gamers and you can see the true rarity of a trophy. and whats your point? to stop using this site? no, I'm just saying that it's interesting. if you want to see how many people actually got a trophy, you can see it. if you want to see how many people actually beat Mega Man 10 without getting damaged (.4% or about 1 in 250 players), you can see it.

DEMON Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 PS4 has this feature already.. and it is a more accurate percentage since this site only counts in the people who have signed up I think.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlindMango Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 (edited) Yeah, I posted a thread about this the day the app released asking the same question, Sly said that he was still gonna continue using the PSN Profiles rarity because it seemed like all of the official PSN rarities were all simply ultra rare and people could more simply grasp and measure rarities at a better scale more easily with the PSN Profiles rarity numbers or something along those lines Makes sense Edited January 9, 2014 by BlindMango Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zorry777 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Yup many trophies are ultra rare on the app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhyperiorx Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 (edited) everybody who has a playstation know this. no need to inform .......... You possibly can't be serious? A lot of people who probably didn't play their PS3 for a long time would just be hearing about this app now. Also what about new comers who want they daily fix, huh? Being quick tempered, kinda brass and hasty at people will make others weary about joining this site. That is probably one of the reason why we have some many guests than members. I'm not against you just guiding you. Edited January 9, 2014 by rhyperiorx 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parker Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 everybody who has a playstation know this. no need to inform This is your one warning, stop being a dick to other members. Just because you've known about something for a bit doesn't mean everyone else does and the OP is more than welcome to inform others who haven't heard about this.

cmgravekeeper Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 While the app might be more universal, like Sly said before, most trophies would just become rare and the value of rarity would decrease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
