thegirlruka Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Question! Is it alright to include ingame glitches in the guides? Like requiring you to delete a game's updated patch? Almost every guide I've written includes them so it's ok 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johntatsi Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Is it still possible to leave a tip? I wanted to leave one for a game that's not well known and only 2 people have this specific trophy (myself included), but can't find out how without making a trophy guide (which I can't since I don't know how to unlock all trophies) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I presume it's EDF? =D In that case, since it's fairly hidden game, either wait until you Plat the game or just create a help thread =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone opens the game trophy list , you can see most recent topics for this game. So ppl see the "tip or info" pretty fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kallume Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 I have a question about a gameplay guide I'm writing. I tried to find a contact tied to guides but was not successful. Who should I poke or where should I post? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mango will probably respond to you on this thread (he's always watching ) The guide team is listed right here for future reference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your help was appreciated! Yeah if you have any questions, I usually check here. Just post here or send me a PM if you end up having questions and I'll respond as soon as I can. Just a warning though, I am sometimes absolutely terrible with my responding to my PM's, so I'm sorry in advance Edited January 9, 2016 by BlindMango Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kallume Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Hello Mango. I reviewed the guide outline and had a question about gameplay guides. I have completed a draft trophy guide for the game, but as one of the trophies is a tough playthrough-based trophy, I wanted to create a gameplay guide of how I recommend getting it. I'd be looking to go into detail of each step, quest and strategy. Is this something that would be created in one guide, multiple guides or even something that shouldn't be created as a gameplay guide? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These three are examples of some that have been made. Two have multiple trophies in their guide and one has a single trophy in its guide. Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII Quest Guide, God of War: Ascension complete collectable walkthrough, and Broken Age Speedrun Walkthrough. They each have a different amount of detail, but I'd consider them all great examples. Edited January 10, 2016 by kuuhaku 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A gameplay guide would work for that, you then link it from the trophy guides and it appears like so: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeetWolf2 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Hey guys, I started a writing a guide for Heavy Rain a few months ago but since then I've not had a lot of free time for myself and I've lost the motivation to keep it going. There were a couple of other people interested in doing one but is this the thread to let people know? Also, the few trophies that I did finish writing walkthroughs for, I'd like to give to whomever takes over from me (since I put a lot of effort into doing them), would they be allowed to use what I've done without crediting me (even though I give full permission)?Sorry if this is the wrong thread to ask this but I couldn't find any other related threads using the search bar and inputting "guide" or "guides".

You can add someone as a contributor for your guide. This is usually the place where I've seen people post about asking for help with guides.

Vampirehunter145 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 I have a pair of questions regarding tips and guides: 1.- ? Do you need the platinum/all the trophies of a game to write a guide and/or tips regarding to the obtention of one or more trophies? 2.- ?Where do you write the tips for the obtention of an specific trophy?

I'm starting the guide usually on the first trophy, but that's just me) 2 - Tips are no longer supported. You need to make a full guide. Also, what is obtention? xDD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xZoneHunter Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 This has probably been mentioned before, but i feel inclined to mention it again - Is there any reason why you can't edit your comments in the guide section? It's pretty annoying to constantly deleting & re-posting my comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

themindisacity Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 I don't see it in the writing a guide guide, so I'll post my question here: how do you delete a trophy guide? I have an unfinished guide I created that I won't be finishing, as there's already a guide for the game up. I don't want it hanging around in my "My Guides" tab anymore. Thanks in advance!

Also, what is obtention? xDD Obtention is like to earn, achieve. In spanish it is "obtención". Will the option ever be available? I understand not doing it once it's published live on the site... It doesn't really matter. Nobody can see your guides before being published (only you, contributers and staff). I do not find any reason for needing a "delete option" there.
