Playfire blog

Hey everyone, this is my first time blogging for the site, so please be gentle heh! 

So today we released our first new update since last week's addition of trophy gamer cards and I wanted to take the opportunity to let you know about some of the cool new features and improvements we've managed to get into today's release.

1. Transparency added to trophy icons

As you can see below we've replaced the black background for each of the trophy icons to a transparent effect so now your cool background theme shines through even more than before!

2. Trophy Comments Page

We've created a unique page for every single trophy where you can discuss the trophy itself. For example; you may want to comment about how easy or difficult earning the trophy was or you may even want to share tips and strategy on how to complete it. If so head on over to this page by clicking on any of the trophy icons in your profile or by spotting trophy comments in the explore page.

3. Trophy List Page

This new page lets you browse all the available trophies for a game, what the type is (bronze/silver or gold) and the description for them and also allows you to view the individual trophy comments pages by clicking on the trophy title or avatar. We've also added in a list on the right-hand side of the page which shows which users have just earned the trophy.

4. Explore Page Trophy comments

This ones pretty simple but if you post a comment about a trophy it will appear on the explore page.

*Special Mentions*

We'd like to thank Octavio who has helped us out behind the scenes with some fantastic new game banners and themes. Of particular note is his jaw-dropping new Splinter Cell theme (see below), which is now available to select from the theme selector on your profile.



We'd also like to extend our thanks to Apeh , Fox , magewarrior182 & MysticZombie for their massive contributions to the forums so far (and everyone else who is regularly contributing!). Great stuff. We really appreciate it!

Thanks everyone,

The Playfire team
