    Best Practice to use Groups / Feature Request


    I named my groups according to the main taxonomy given by TrueAchievements.

    E.g. the game "assassins creed" is under the group "open world games".

    Problem / Feature Requests:

    1. 40 tiles limit - The problem is that the home page display only shows 4x10 tiles , this is not enough to list all games. At least there should then appear a tile with ... so you can scroll to the next page of the set. The workaround is
    to split all groups larger than 40 in subgroups but there are "not defined" so it will be e.g. assassins creed open world games" and "all but assassins creed open world games ". Can such a paging tile or model be added? If not possible would it be possible
    to make the groups screen the startup screen? (the workaround is to split "open world games 1" and "open world games 2" etc.. all of max 40 tiles but since there is no way from the point of a game to tell if it is in a group or which group, adding will need
    first scanning the groups for that picture and only when not found then add the game to e.g. open world games 3)

    2. Taxonomy Type - Since that default gaming category is overall a "standard" (since most gaming magazines will classify in the same model) would it not be possible to by default categorize on these or by default create these groups? This
    makes it easier to categorize instead of the less meaningful "last updated" or "last installed" ?

    3.Taxonomy Achievements - Another useful taxonomy would be : games with no achievements , some achievements and all achievement (or by percentage). It makes it more clear on which games no achievements yet have been chased and which games
    are "finished" in terms of achievements.

    4. Export metadata games + dlc list - Would it be possible to export metadata of the installed games+dlcs and make them available via an API? Then a call could process them further for reporting including pictures for nice visibility. Preferably
    with links to the front images / thumbs. In that way grouping could be done offline in various formats without typing everything over.

    5. Import metadata games - Would it be possible to import this data back, to e.g. define groups offline and then import the groups , always replacing the existing groups.

    6. Game versus Group relation - When in the Games screen and clicking on a game there is no information at all in which group it resides so there is no information or way to tell which games are already in a group or not. Even by adding
    the game in a group there is no feedback that a game is already in that group (it silently ignores). At minimum an way to visualize which games are not yet in any group would be useful.

    :)

    how do i find players to cod black ops 2 on xbox?

    Search for a club to join and use the looking for group feature. That is the best way to find people to game with.

    Is there any site/video with tuts on making good looking characters?

    It might take some practice, but the best method to make a character that suits your taste is just to experiment. Make full use of all the features offered to you.
