Dear MetaGamerScore Member! Well. This thing with sending newsletters... I don't want to do it too often because I hate spam, but now it's been 17 months since the last one, so it is really time for an update. Best Achievement Game of 2018 went to Spyro Reignited Trilogy, with Marvel's Spider-Man as second and God of War as third. In early 2019, MetaGamerScore added help in terms of site moderation. Krazitrain is helping out with keeping the site in top shape. The all new Friend-bar (to the right) allows you to quickly access game-comparisons with your friends. Cool stuff that's been upgraded at https://metagamerscore.com since the last time we sent out an e-mail: New platforms: --- The Wargaming.net platform. Currently has 4 games: World of Tanks, World of Tanks Blitz, World of Warships and World of Warplanes. War war war. --- The GOG platform. (https://www.gog.com/). Gog is an alternative to Steam with loads of games. Top-lists: --- New top-list: Raw Achievement Count. Who has the most achievements, regardless of score? --- More platform top-lists. Gog, Wargaming and Completist+Firsts for Newgrounds. --- Added more countries to country-toplists --- More games are now eligible to contribute to firsts-ranking Frontend: --- Game list views updated to explain better what has been scanned or not and why. --- Profile view improved --- Game view now shows an external storelink when such link exist --- Improved flags for high-resolution --- Lots of Achievement icons and game pictures swapped to https to avoid mixed-media warnings --- Some improvements for mobile devices. Still not great though. --- Crew page can now be customized with BB-codes --- Mad Gold patreons now get their name in gold in more places. MOAR GOOOOLD! --- A metric ton of minor bug-fixes Scanners: --- Playstation scanning functional again --- Steam scanning update. Now parses more data. --- Steam authentication Added. So you can log in with Steam to add your Steam account. --- Feature to reconcile Steam games. To find any banned games that was missed. --- Added Battle.net authentication for better Starcraft 2 scanning Various: --- Achievement-spam games changed to give a fixed total of 100 points, regardless of them having 5000 achievements. Individual achievements not tracked. --- Achievement spam games are now detected & flagged automatically --- Joined the Unified Achievement Rules Initiative, for shared Achievement hunting rules across trackers. --- Brave browser reward program activated --- Made analytics more anonymous as default. For your integrity. --- Removed upper cap on password length. Ok, there is still a cap, but it is now huge. --- Two metric tonnes of back-end improvements |

I set up a monthly subscription via Patreon to support this site a little... and the ad-free perk is fantastic... the site looks much better without the clutter on the sides and you can appreciate its delicate colours more =) | |

Hey DX, there's info on the donate page here, and like Marexai I have a Patreon recurring payment set up. Nice to give even a little back, and I genuinely don't notice it go out of my account! | |

International credit card while in China long term is not very convenient for.. well reasons. Also, I prefer to avoid subscription based payment for anything when possible - a few bad experiences. I would rather just one shot it once in a while when I have the urge. If there was a way to do a one shot Payment via We Chat (which I use on Steam) or Ali Pay, then I would very willingly and quickly give a donation. |
