Community Spotlight PSN...

Archive: 16 posts


Apologises if this has been mentioned or thought of before but there wasn't really a way for me to search it.

I was thinking, the Community Spotlight is one of the renowned features of this site and is a fantastic resource for finding levels. How about taking this one step further and creating a PSN for it. All the levels that are spotlighted could be hearted by it. It would then be much easier to play these levels as they wouldn't have to be manually searched individually.

A few ways to do it;

Only have the current spotlighted levels hearted so it is obvious which are the latest ones.

Have them all hearted which will make it an excellent database of great levels, but mean that it's hard to tell which are the newest.

Have two accounts, one with just the latest levels, and one that has all of them. However, this will obviously require more work.

Just an idea, again, apologises if this has already been thought of, there could even be something similar actually in place now, but I've never heard or seen anything about it

I really like the idea, but it's pretty easy to search for the level itself2009-08-10 05:46:00

Yeah of course, but searching for each level individually would take a lot longer than searching for the Spotlights PSN and having them all listed there ready for you to click and play

Yeah, I guess I like the idea of having an account I can easily go to and find lots of good/great levels.... But remember, each account can only hold up to 10 pages of hearted levels

I beleive this question has been commented on the Spotlight pages a number of times.

Apparently Morgana25 has the most up to date list of communtiy spotlight levels on her hearted levels.

But adding in a small caption saying "See Morgana25's hearted list for easy access to communtiy spotlight levels!" would be convininent to new comers and such. (did i spell that right?)

Well, I agree with jack.
After having understood that you have only 20 pages (19 actually), I'm more and more greedy with my hearts, and if one level has more than 200 hearts, I prefer to heart the author, since being able to do a good level it's not a longshot; if the level has less than 200 hearts I heart it to boost, but if I see that the level after some time gets more hearts, I leave mine.
This is something that I not love to do at all, but the lame system quite force me to do it, since in 3 online weeks I have already filled 12-13 pages

I've been working on something similar for about a week and a half. Problem is that you get a max of 10 pages of hearted levels. I'm up through spotlight 9 and I'm at 8 pages. Takes quite a bit of time to locate them (especially the older ones I'm not as familiar with) Keep an eye out for an official announcement from CC when we get this worked out.2009-08-10 08:45:00

Ah yes, Morgana is the hardest working spotlighter and she's always got the great levels on her hearted list.
But you could also search GrantosUK, Mattifcation or Coxy224 if you want to get all the good levels - we're spotlighters too y'know Morgana

I'm to lazy to even play the levels. Thats why my comments are always done last. I just read what you lot have put and then re-word it.

And I'm a serial H4H'r, so my list sucks.

When you have a creator that has more than one level spotlighted, unheart the level and heart the creator instead. This way you will use the space they give you more effectively (10 pages of levels and 10 pages of creators)

Or just heart the the levels form the latest spotlight and then remove them when the next one is out. That way the players, if regulars here on the site and in the game, can just keep updated easily. It isn't the database of great levels that it could be...but it would still quite useful for regulars.

OR...and this is a major job....create a PSN account each week and call it Community Spotlight Episode (number)...so you have a separate account for every one...

That's obviously some major, I don't have a life, work though

I have the one account for now. I can't call it episode # as there are limited characters I can use. I also have to have an email assigned for all the alt accounts and I have 4 accounts on my PS3 already so I only have room for 1 more before that maxes out.

I like the idea of hearting creators for multiple levels but it sort of defeats the purpose of being able to browse the levels themselves if you have to go into the creators list..... I'll find a solution eventually.

Also - yes - Coxy, Matt82 and GrantosUK have awesome hearted lists too. I just didn't want to speak for them when asked what the easiest way to find spotlighted levels was currently. You guys work hard too!

I'm trying to get the list done but I've got a ton of obligations this week so it's slow going.

You shouldn't worry much. It's litterally just one click more wich is only to open the creator's page. It's also still infinitely faster than searching for the level.
