Merry Christmas Everyone!

Posted 1 year ago by Rebon - Comments (127)

Happy holidays everyone!

We just want to say, thank you so much for supporting Playfire in 2008. It has been a great year for the site: from launching into private beta with a few of you, then now in public beta as we add features and make it better and better. It has been a good year, with over 50,000 gamers signing up to use the site!

Next year, however, things are going to be crazy. We're going to add some mind-blowing features that will make every gamer in the world want to hop on and start using the site. We're going to listen to every single idea you guys suggest, and build the ones that are coolest. 2009 is going to be a lot of fun for everyone on Playfire, so invite your friends and get settled in. It's going to be a fun ride!

We couldn't do this without you guys, so from the heart of everyone here, thank you. Have a great Christmas!

Best,

Kieran & the whole Playfire team

michaelenergy io sono italiano ,no credo chemi capirete. ho usato il traduttore per tradurre questo testo e ho letto che voi volete farvi aiutare da noi per ampliare playfire. io avrei 2 cose da farvi installare su questo sito sempre se accettate:
1 metterci un traduttore molto potente che possa tradurre tutte le lingue in modo che ognuno possa vedere il sito nella propria lingua.
2 metterci una specie di guardia che controlla chi posta trofei che non ha in modo da farlo eliminare da questo sito per imbroglio.
spero che acctterete questo.
grazie per il messaggio.

woomahuman I have made several suggestions which i know would be well used but they never get implamented in the site, i will tell you them again just incase ur interested as it looks like you may be by the looks of this message left by yourselves.

2.trophy images, hearts, flowers etc in the emotions option.

se1987 Hi guys how are u? 1 Question: i would like to know if u can have access to my PSN account and update my trophycard like the achievements in the Xbox. Cause it will be fantastic... Happy holidays Kieran and Playfire. Thank to all of u. 1 year ago
jtedesco63 Could you maybe link up with our gaming systems and pull stats like at least one other site I am part of? I really like the feel of your site, it is bright and easy to navigate, but I imagine something like that might be sort of expensive, so I understand why it would maybe NOT be doable without charging to be part of Playfire.

nashphx13z I can't wait to see what the new "mind-blowing" features are! 1 year ago
xxdangerxx the most coolest thing and helpfull update is to connect our own ps3 to this site. for example in "call of duty 5: world at war", i couldent see my stats in the game (online) so when i clicked stats they gave me threee steps whitch say "sign up or login at callofduty.com", the second step says "link account".the third step they will give a specific code that nobody else has. to link account i must follow these steps. i have to sign up or login, then i go to "link account" after i do that i will put in my code and your all done. it will automatically show you all your stats in cod5.but what i was hoping to do in playfire is to do the same steps but this time we will get not just cod5 stats. but our whole entire ps3 stats like his trophies, for every game that we got a trophy in. some people here dont give people chances, so what they do they will put every single trophy (whitch they dont have) in for them just to be the top player in "leaderboards". so if this update happens alot of players will be shown there true colors, alot will be droped down and some will stay the same. happy christmas to all!!! 1 year ago

gmk218 thank you i have a suggestion if you could make the trophy selection as they are in the ps trophy setup its hard to trace via bronze silver gold platinum think about how you can implement that if you know what i mean if not pm me 1 year ago
