Popular Post Gnillisch Posted October 14, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 14, 2022 (edited) I still don't understand why people keep saying these are illegitimate now. Yes, you need to adjust your DNS. There are plenty of games that force you to adjust your DNS/Network to play online. Especially on PS3. PSONE servers that autopop/hack trophies I agree should be removed, but this example is totally legit. So if I would be removed from the lb here because I got legit trophies, it would only be worth a laughter to be honest. By that logic, if a game forces you to have NAT-Type 1 connection to host a game, this is illegitimate too. Because me as NAT-Type 2 can't host so therefore the trophies are unattainable. Still this is accepted. Plus all the accounts doing easy region stacks games need to be banned from the leaderboards. Because they do account sharing which is breaking Sony's ToS. ?

Contact @MMDE, plead your case for why these servers should be included in the approved list, provide evidence they are open source and that the trophies are obtainable by normal means without hacks of any kind: Quote Important Factors Don't modify in-game or server environment. Trophies must be earned in the same manner as when the official servers were online. Available for everyone. Anyone can potentially setup the server themselves if they have a computer and decent computer knowledge.

I did the trophies lately and did them legit. That's all I need to know for my personal peace. ? You don't need to be computer genius to set up the DNS settings and still the trophies need to be earned as always. There is no cheat/hack whatsoever that is getting you the trophies faster in any way. So 100% legit ? Edit: It's not even a custom DNS. It's just using an official Google DNS.

iXanon Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 That's been a common problem for years, and nobody knows the exact reason why it works for some people and not others.. Heck, at this stage it may no longer work for any new players, difficult to test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what I thought, too. It's a Google server. I'm sure I (and many others) have used in the past when you had to get past the buggy Ubisoft servers or the lagging ones or when there were NAT issues. So if open source is the rule and Goggle servers are open source, ergo it should be allowed. But it's up to the powers that are to flag people or not. I have my own opinions on that but I will keep it to myself. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EqualityEarth Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Does anyone know how to contact the creator(s) of that server? I’d like to get in touch with them. I can’t promise miracles, but you could say I would aspire to convince them to make it “open source,” or at least gather their rationale for not doing so. Let’s venture into idealism and say I succeeded. All they have to do is post some items on GitHub? Then we wait for staff to make an addendum to the approved list? Even if it was open source for a limited time, it could reduce the number of “flaggable achievers,” (if you didn’t get the sarcasm I share with others such as those here) as during that timeframe any trophies earned wouldn’t have to be hidden.

RetroFeniks Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 If you want to be on the leaderboards then don't try your hand on these types of things. Even with the whitelisting we've seen lately that the CRT can reverse these things and you can still end up being flagged for things that were "legal" at the time, as we've seen with Motorstorm. It's a really weird gray area on this site for some reason. If you don't care about leaderboards, go ahead and play it. If you do, play it on a burner account if you really miss playing Blur. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought there was some self built server that the DNS setting directed to in lieu of the deteriorated official server. And being that, also not approved because it isn’t under the custom server list since my last check. So yeah I sure was confused as there were many users unlocking online trophies yet there were no flags or disputes, so far only for the PS3 Transformers games(?). All points are moot for now though given those reporting the game returned to working condition. Hooray, it’s now indisputably ‘legal’ to play online/unlock online trophies again.

Google search 'Amax Emu', they have a discord channel. I already reached out concerning open-source and the stance of PSNP, sadly they weren't interested in cooperating.

And while you can access original servers again and get online trophies without being flagged, you can still play on the "private" servers ... but you can't determinate on which server people get their trophies ...

Rawzix Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 I’m confused about this game is the official servers up or not??? Will you be flagged for doing the online trophies? Thinking of starting this game but won’t do it if you get flagged Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
