oh thats really a cruel statement. that means all my work was in vain *HAHA* The guy I meant was (i believe) zincous or so (http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?t=47572&highlight=made+openfeint) any chance, some OF points will be converted to the new applegamesystem!?
How many people actually use OpenFeint to show their friends achievements and stuff? We have high scores, achievements, stats, and trophies in N.Y.Zombies handled through our own servers, yet we still get requests for Open Feint...
I hate the lag when opening a game, as well as the lag when earning an achievement. Also, I hate how some games give you 1 point per achievement while others give you 100. And the fact that any game can use it (and a lot of crappy ones do) just makes the icon look even cheaper.
Pff, quit your moaning about OF. It's interface in all honesty is ugly and quite abrasive, but when you see that little bar pop up, which one of you dosen't go "WOO! MORE POINTS!" Cause, pretty much all of you are like it wether you agree to it or not. If you don't like the interface don't enable it. You do have the option you know.
The achievement system is stupid and pointless. Flatout. A bunch of extremely basic/comically over-simplified games and pointlessly casual games handing out achievement points damn-near for free. Accumulating OF achievement points feels hallow, shallow, and meaningless. Sure, all achievement points are meaningless, but you often feel at least some sense of accomplishment when you earn Xbox Live gamerscore points. The only thing on the idevice that comes anywhere close to offering something like that is Gameloft Live. And with Game Center, it's just going to be more of the same. At least half of the "games" that find their way onto the appstore have no business having achievements to begin with. With many of these games, there isn't even really anything to "achieve" in the first place.
Because unlocking an achievement slows down the game and in the highscore type games it is absolutely crazy making when you unlock an achievment for reaching some score and then laaaaaag and dead. Not just OF, Plus+ is worse and funny enough agon seems to be the best, or at least with tilt to live
Wow are some of you guys rly complaining about a fricken Icon. You people are rly sad. Get a fricken Life!!
This just isn't about an icon, it is about lag although I do not expierence it personally. I like how minigore deals with it BETTER(not completely). They let you see the achievement with the game paused and gives you three seconds to give back into it. I think all OF stuff should be kept till the end. EDIT: I only have 14 apps w/ the OF symbol. 10 green. 3 gold. 1 blue.(OF app)
