Raptr Integration

I've already been punting them behind the scenes and they signed up during pre-beta registration, but they've been away all weekend so never played. But I'll let them know the client is available again and hopefully we'll have detection working for launch day.

EDIT: My bad, they've already added detection based on my data so it's already detected. You'll have to manually add it by telling the client to look in \pso2_bin\

Hm..I stopped using Raptr because it never recorded the time I spent playing Spiral Knights.
Was considering uninstalling.

[Garteal]

I have Raptr, but no one I know use it, so I'm kinda semi-active on it.
This is great news though. If the support is there, it'll be easier to communicate with fellow PSO-W'ers.

Just edited the OP, I finally got the client working again (An issue with Turning off Application Compatibility) but you can manually add PSO2 to track gametime.

Manually adding is pointless, and in the least of most of those games, why would I want to run a secondary social gaming thing when Steam alone now does more than enough?

Steam is nice as a way to launch games and as a platform. Raptr is the same except that it does some things Steam doesn't, like track gametime, including non-steam games.

Personally I prefer the steam in-game interface but I keep Raptr in the background, keeping an eye on what I'm playing and for how long. I just figured it'd be nice for other people to be able to do so, whether they have Raptr accounts already or not.

:< Sorry I bothered.

I didn't think of it like that. I thought it was just trying to rip off Steam or some crap. Considering everyone else is after Valve saw success with it despite being told IT WILL NEVER WORK... y'know?

Nah, they don't sell games, just track when and how long you play games across PC/Steam/XBL/PSN

As you can see from my OP post you can also get signatures for individual games (I'm apparently Elite at Minecraft o_O)

99 hours of Spirit tales, how did you even manage that?
I probably racked up 200+ hours on EE before quitting though.


I'll start using raptr again once I figure out how to make it work for some indie MMOs. ^^

And can you explain the PSN connectivity a bit more? I have a handful of trophies on mine, or on my steam account. Does that all work retroactively or is that screwed?

You need to play some more Sonic CD! D<

You can scrape your achievements/trophies anytime, it only tracks gameplay fro 360/PC when the app is open. PS3 integration is hard to do as Sony refuse to expose any information on the website, you can see what your friends are doing/playing, but not yourself. For such a over-secure service, it sure sucks at being secure XD

I'm torn between Sonic 3 + Knuckles and Sonic CD.

[Mitz]

I don't get it. Why would people want to download a separate client to use this information?

[StevoLime]

Pyrii, I should Thank You for pushing for PSO2 on Raptr. Now I can see how much time I waste on my computer playing PSO2 than my Xbox playing CoD, Halo, and PSU. lol.

[Lintor]

I use raptr for the in-game overlay that lets me use Facebook chat or SNM inside a full screen game. The other stuff is nice I suppose. Anyone wants to compete with my epeen feel free.
Personally, I don't see much need for raptr, you already have to use steam for most of your stuff anyways, no point having 2 or 3 networks (quit xfire as steam started expanding)

Thanks for pushing for the PSO 2 integration, Pyrii.

[Aeris]

Might switch over to raptr since it shows the last game i played and yes i have a account on raptr lol.

[thablinksta]

I downloaded raptr with some random game by accident, but its actually pretty nifty. The overlay is nice too =D

thanks for the info!

[Lintor]

I just like its other chat integration, oh and the rewards system.
Free XBLA copy of Minecraft? Yes please.
