J-Isoniemi Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 I noticed platinum rarity is going up suddenly, it was 1.19 some days ago, and now 1.28. It has been going down steadily for years, now up, and we can expect it to continue (yesterday it was 1.26). The thing is, looks like no one has got platinum recently. I haven't noticed something like that before. This didn't happen to other games. Does someone have an explanation? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuntingFever Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 This was a PS+ game a few years ago so a lot of people will have downloaded it and just chipped away at the trophies, since it's a bitch to Plat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More people earn the platinum 2. Some people who had the game > 0% on their profile but did earn the platinum have either hidden the game/their profile or been removed from the leaderboards 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other games that I saw this happen to were GT Sport & Wolfenstein 2 where the rarity would start to go up but over a longer period of time. I know GT Sport used to be a 0.72% but now 1.01% whilst Wolfenstein 2 was at 0.60% & it's at 0.93% now.

sweeping-lamp3 Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 Maybe some profiles got the platinum long ago but were not updated was just recently updated by random strangers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alwaystired1987 Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 you also have people unlocking these games with trophy hacks which lowers the average. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
