I posted this on the Sunflowers board

 

"My first gift trophy

I don't think this requires online. I was at my doctors office today, and I couldn't get on any wifi, the single was to weak, it still popped when i went to near.

Or is there something im missing about near?"

hmmmmmm.... *scratch head* wait a moment... 

 

after some time of research (around 3 mins in google), apparently the trophy will pop by pressing yes when a warning message from game asking you if you want to send the gift, so possible to earn just being offline and just send a gift... needs confirmation though...

Not any games that come to mind that haven't been said already.

All I can think of though is ModNation Racers, CoD BOD AND Unit 13.

in Modnation, Near can be used to gift people items to use.

COD, same sort of thing but you can be gifted multiplayer classes.

Unit 13 will still be attainable but harder to get. All the HVT's. There are 9-10 seperate trophies for each HVT and an overall trophy. You will now need ALL story stars to unlock all HVT'S (originally someone who had it could gift it to you through Near.)

Something urgent has come up at work, so I won't be able to edit this post again for a couple of days. Please read above and below as a number of games have been mentioned in the thread over the weekend that I haven't been able to put in the OP just yet. I'll get back to keeping the OP up do date as soon as I can. Thanks for your patience guys and gals.

No need to care about this one.

I platted the game without any use of near.

 

 

I just got an email from Sony about Maps and YouTube going away, to their credit, at least they're warning people.

 

They still forgot near, though xD

Thanks for the info. 

 

Re: Modnation - will this affect trophies?

 

CoD: same question.

 

Thanks mate.

Modnation it will not affect trophies I don't think... According to the guide over on .org, all you need is online functionality to download other people's creations. (tl;dr: no)

Call of Duty will not be affected as there are no trophies relating to the online mode.

 

EDIT (Modnation): Forgot to mention, that the items gifted don't affect trophies BUT will make it easier to get the online trophies (making maps, karts better and more appealing! :) )

STREET FIGHTER X TEKKEN (Vita)

 

Magnanimity

Give 5 character color gifts.

 

Colour gifts are sent using Near, so no Near no trophy, no trophy no Platinum.

 

Kirijama

The trophy description is misleading, you never needed near to do this trophy in the first place, you just needed to change the colours, I remember doing this one on my old profile.

Hello all

 

So, we learned yesterday (28 Jan 2015) that Sony is going to be retiring the Maps app from the Vita system in a system update scheduled for March 2015. This will have knock on effects for at least some of the functions used in the [near] app, and games that rely on [near].

 

 

More to follow later, if I get the chance.

 

Any chance this can be updated to see what was actually affected now that it's done, just in case someone reads this and thinks it's still accurate?
