Popular Post ExHaseo Posted July 11, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 11, 2022 (edited) PS+ EXTRA-vaganza What is this? If you're like me, you're constantly trying to find something new to play. So why not leave it to someone else? For this event, the tl;dr is that everyone will recommend 2 games in the PS+ EXTRA library. Then all the games get thrown into a randomizer, and you get one of those games. You'll gain points for beating it and points for platting it. The Nitty Gritty Here's the long version of how it will work. Point System - For each game you beat, you get one point. For each game you plat, you get points based on the rarity. A common is 1 point, uncommon is 2 points, rare is 4 points, very rare is 7 points, and ultra rare is 10 points. Less than 1% UR is worth 50 points. Plat points are only available while the game is your current game. If you beat a game, let's say Spider-Man, and ask for another one, then you can't get plat points for Spider-man anymore. Games without plats get points based on the 100% completion rarity. If a game has DLC trophies, you'll get 1 point for each DLC pack once getting 100% on the full list. For each consecutive game you beat without swapping, you get bonus points. For every game after the third one, you get 2 points. Once you get to 5 in a row, you get 3 points, and once you get to 10 in a row, you get 4 points. For example, let's say you get Spider-Man. You beat Spider-Man and you get 1 point. Then you get the plat, and it's uncommon so you get another 2 points. Spider-man has 4 DLC packs, so if you complete all of them and get the full list to 100%, you get an 4 extra points. For a grand total of 7 points. Hall of Fame - Rather than a seasonal style system ranking people, instead there's the Hall of Fame. The Hall of Fame is split up into groups based on points. Game Recommendations - Below is the current pool of games. When you join, you can recommend up to 2 games that aren't in the list yet. You only need to recommend one to join though. Try to recommend something you don't think other people have played. Once the list hits a certain number, I'll allow people to recommend games already on the list, but for now please stick to games not on there yet. For now, you're allowed to recommend a game I've recommended. I've recommended extra to get the list started, but if someone else wants to take that recommendation you can. You're allowed to swap out a recommendation once a month. Just in case you run into a game you really want other people to try. Only recommend a game that you've already played. Game Assignments - Once you've joined and recommended a game, I'll throw the current list of games into a randomizer. I'll then look at your profile and go down the list of randomized games until I get to one not on your profile yet. If you don't like the game, then feel free to just drop it and ask for another one. You're not forced to play something you aren't enjoying. You just have to give it a fair shot. For the event, that means earning at least one trophy. If you've already played a game on another system, just let me know and I'll give you something else. Veto Power - Everyone has game genres they don't like. Because of that, everyone gets 3 vetos. For example, if you don't like sports games, and a sports game pops up, you can use a veto to get something else. Vetos don't break streaks, so your points will be unaffected. However, you can only veto before starting a game. Everyone has 3 vetos when they start. You can gain 1 veto each month, but you can never go above 3 total. If a game has unobtainable trophies, you can freely veto it. What about games I've already started? - If you want to include games you've already started in your list, but haven't platted, you can. Just let me know. You wont be able to earn points for beating the game, but you can earn plat points this way. What about games leaving Extra? - Games will be removed from the current recommendation list as soon as they appear in the leaving soon section. It seems like they're giving at least a month's notice, so no one should ever be assigned a game that's leaving Extra anytime soon. What about PS5 games? - This event is primarily for PS4 games. If you have a PS5, you can recommend a PS5 exclusive game and I'll include PS5 games in your game lists, but that wont count towards the 2. Since the PS5 still can't be bought, I don't want to assume anyone has one yet. Can I Just Recommend a game and Not Join? - Absolutely! If you just want to recommend a game to add to the list, go ahead. Only one per person this way though. Just make sure to specify you're not joining, otherwise I'll assume you are. When do game assignments go out? - For now, I'll do game assignments as soon as possible. Depending on how many people join, they may be scaled back to batches once a week instead. What if I get a sequel to a game I haven't played? - If you happen to get a sequel to a game you haven't played yet, you can play an earlier game in the series instead. For example, if you get Spider-Man Miles Morales, you can play Spider-Man instead. Just let me know that's what you want to do. This doesn't apply to games that have nothing to do with each other, but are in the same series. For example, if you get Final Fantasy XII, you can't play Final Fantasy VII instead, because they're two completely different games that have completely different worlds, characters, stories, etc. Da Rules You have to earn at least one trophy in a game before you can get another one. This is just to make sure people give the game a fair shot. You can drop in or out at any time. If you've played everything in the pool, then feel free to leave and come back once there's some new games. Or if you see this thread after it's started, feel free to hop in at anytime. You have to have at least 20 forum posts before joining. Setting up this event for each person is a lot of work, and I don't want to do that work for someone unless I know they're sticking around for a bit. You have to recommend at least one game that's not on the list to join. This is only for PS+ EXTRA, don't recommend PS+ Premium games. While not technically required, you should have PS+ Extra. Otherwise you'll be spending a lot of money. How To Join Just say you want to join along with at least one recommendation. If you have a PS5, please make sure to include that, otherwise I will assume PS4 only. If you want to include games you've already started, let me know too. If you don't specify I'll assume you don't. Current Game Lists Here is the current game list, along with who recommended it. Included by default are the major first party games and a few more popular games considered good. Mainly to get the list started.

Agents of Mayhem Platinum is not possible because of Server Closure. Aw man, that sucks. I just removed it from the list since it was one of my starter games. I'll add a thing in the first post saying people can freely veto games like that if they pop up. RNG has decided that your first game is... God of War! 11 minutes ago, kingofbattle8174 said: Concrete genie. Such a good and charming game. That's one I've been meaning to play. I kind of hope I get it now lol.

Slept on Concrete Genie for years, finally downloaded it and having a nice stress-free gaming experience. Reminds me of a 3D Chicory. I'm glad to see people are also just coming to see the recommendations. I finished up Lost Words: Beyond the Page and got the plat. It was common, so that's 2 points total. I give it a solid feelings/10. I absolutely was not expecting that when I booted it based on the artwork. I don't want to say too much, because I think going in blind made it so much better. I'll just say it was short and had an easy platinum, but it was great game. I hope everyone else is enjoying their games too. RNGesus decided my next game was The Crew 2, but I am not a fan of racing games, so I used a veto. Next was Ghost of Tsushima. Hopefully it's as good as people say it is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome! They are part of extra and they've been added to the list! Your first game is... inFamous First Light! I hope you enjoy it! Even though it's a shorter side story, I honestly thought it was way better than the other inFamous games. 28 minutes ago, Kishnabe said: I haven't played Gravity Rush 2 or The Caligula Effect Overdose.

If I plat Spiderman Miles Morales before God of War, I can get plat points for it but not beat points? If I earned one trophy from God of War before this event, I can't get beat points for it? Yeah, you're only supposed to recommend games you've played. A recommendation is basically like walking up to a friend and saying, "I just played this game, it was awesome, you should try it." Someone already has Gravity Rush 2, so I'll switch that to one of my default ones. I've played it and it was a good enough game, but I've replaced Caligula Effect with Chicken Police. Nothing you play outside of the assigned game will change the points you get. So you can play anything you want outside of the event. You could plat 30 games other games before you beat your assigned one, and still get points for it. You just can't ask for a new game and then go back and get points on a previous game. For example, you have God of War now. If you don't like it, you can swap it out for a new one and get Bloodborne. You can't get points on God of War anymore, only Bloodborne. I didn't see God of War on your profile when I looked, so you're fine. You can still get points for beating it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanevin Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 What a fun idea! Would love to take part. I've started a lot of games, so if a game that I've started gets rolled, I'll keep it.

shxrpay Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 @ExHaseo Since my game doesn’t have a plat, how will the scoring work? Did I miss something or has that not been accounted for yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the case of Luminous Avenger, it's 15.81%. It would be considered Rare, so you'd get 4 points. I've updated the initial post. 1 hour ago, Atchang76 said: Hi! I'd like to join the event as well.
