Popular Post Se7en Posted April 17, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted April 17, 2017 How about highlighting unattainable trophies with special tag and color code, something like that: There’re already forum threads with a lot of information about unattainable trophies on PS4, PS3 and Vita to add to PSNP database, which can be done by competent guys from Guide Team. Those topics can also be used for members’ feedback to mark more unattainable trophies in the future or un-tag the ones fixed by developers. And if unattainable trophy is already completed by user, it should be regular green with time stamp instead. 85 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eakalayci_ Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 That's actually really helpful for the people that need to know they can't obtain all the trophies in an old game or people that want to play any kind of old game on the PS3. Why don't they do this? It would really help! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super-Fly Spider-Guy Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 That'd be really cool for the users, and for the staff, having unattainables be easily spotted and shit, having them ping or something when someone unlocks them would be an easy way to spot cheaters too. Seems like win win to me, but I'm not sure how much work it would take, maybe the cost/benefit ratio isn't worth it? Can't imagine this hasn't crossed someone's mind at some point in the past. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Shadiochao Posted April 17, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted April 17, 2017 If this happens then it should also notify the anti-cheating team whenever somebody unlocks one of the highlighted trophies, so they can flag or mark the trophy as attainable without having to wait for someone to bring it to their attention. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd think that if someone was checking the trophy list for a game he wants to play,he'd check the forums for ''unobtainable plat or trophies''.It's almost the first in every recent forum posts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's on your right while you're scrolling down to see the last trophies in the list.Anyway,if this happens it would be better to write from when that certain trophy became unattainable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be best just to highlight those trophies with a tag in the list of trophies of that game, would really make the list of the game more well-ordered 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenshyguy Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Good idea, it's sometime not readily apparent if a trophy is unachievable without doing more digging. No guarantee that there'll always be a forum post talking about it (although I accept that there'll more likely be one than not). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xgamersurvivor Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Damn that's a good idea. It would be also nice if for example:when a server for some game would go down in 3 months, if those trophies that would become unachiavable would have a date somewhere near them when they won't be achiavable, just a thought ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevieboy Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 This idea has been suggested many times in the past. Here are the threads for reference: 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tondt Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 (edited) This would be a great feature, I hope to see it implemented in the near future. Another suggestion I thought I would add would to put the amount of unattainable trophies in parentheses near unearned trophies or an option to have it there.

Popular Post Sly Ripper Posted April 17, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted April 17, 2017 If I were to add this, I'd like to add all kinds of manual tagging we need in one lump so whoever updates this info doesn't have to keep going back and adding stuff later. So, what else should be added alongside the unattainable flag? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here are the threads for reference: While it's nice to see these 4 threads, in each one, the problem is never resolved. The biggest complaint people tend to have is that a game could be flagged as "impossible to plat" when in fact it is still possible, though I don't really see that this is an issue here. Why can't the flag have a simple designation, such as "server closure on X date" or something like that?

So, what else should be added alongside the unattainable flag? Wow - you just ninja'ed me. Well, in regards to the "unobtainable" flag itself, like I said, a brief reason and a "last obtainable on" date might help the flag team. I guess I'll think about some of the other tags that might not have to do with unobtainables. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a good idea in regards to the "server closure on x date" thing, but as far as I know, a majority of the developers don't bother with stating a date as to when certain online servers for games will be shutting down. Either that, or they probably do, and I don't notice these things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can bring an example of games with online no longer available, White Knight Chronicles 1 and 2, servers shut down on june 2013, people kept telling me they were impossible to plat, but in fact they weren't, I sat down and platted them eventually, so there are circumstances where server shut down doesn't equal unobtainable platinums. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's fine, but that's a different issue. I'm not saying that a "server down" tag is equivalent to "impossible to obtain", but it would be nice if a known "impossible to obtain" trophy is due to a "server down" reason.

Also might be tagged separately secret trophies; online/multiplayer trophies; trophies requiring additional accessories (camera, PS Move, 2+ gamepads etc).

Yes, I agree, in fact I think that the two infos should be kept separated, let's say "online down - still obtainable", "online down - unobtainable" or something like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
