By MobyReed (176) on July 01, 2023 · 2 comments
This was a big week for credits! Contributors have been making good use of the new bulk import feature and auto-classification tools.
And we have a new record for the most people credited with a game release:
Diablo IV with 9,166 people!
With a huge thanks to Sciere for contributing these.
The prior record of 7,315 was set by Red Dead Redemption II (2018).
Changelog:
- Added # of people in credits to the game overview, when available
- UI/UX improvements on the credits submission form
- Optimization pass on large credits lists
- Allow saving Work In Progress (WIP) credits without classifications
- Increased character limit for role titles (from 255 to 510)
- Fixed missing back/front covers for platform specific game pages
- Approvers: Added filters to the Steam "missing games" queue
- Misc. UI tweaks, polish
Moby v2023.06.23 Release
By MobyReed (176) on June 23, 2023 · 7 comments
Achievement Unlocked: 1 Million Screenshots! Notably these are screenshots from release versions only, no mods/etc, and with the original resolution/aspect ratio. So they represent what the actual post-release non-modified game looks like as seen by players. No pre-release bullshots or even official post-release screenshots (those are categorized and counted as "promo art" since they may have marketing treatment applied). A huge thanks to every contributor who captured these high quality screenshots. With an extra special thanks to the Top 100.
We're happy to see contributors already making good use of the bulk credits import feature we added last week!
This week we've added another enhancement to the credits contribution tool: Auto-classification. This attempts to automatically classify titles based on what already exists in the database. This should save a lot of time, especially if you're working with a big list of common titles. Uncommon titles will still need manual classification.
Changelog:
- Added auto-classification to credits form
- Added queue of games we're missing from Steam (available to approvers for now, will become available more broadly later)
- Increased image caption limit to 255 characters
- Reduced critic review abstract length to 1,000 characters
- Allow resubmission of WIP’d GameGroupGames
- Fixed ability to abandon items
- Fixed error display on game shots
- Approvers: Enabled canned responses
- Admins: Fixed ability to delete/re-add flag images
Moby v2023.06.16 Release
By MobyReed (176) on June 17, 2023 · 4 comments
The credits contribution form now includes the ability to import credits! To kick things off, it supports the following format:
Group Name Role Title Person Name Role Title Person Name Person Name
So contributors who prefer to write credits in a document first, or already have them written down, can simply copy/paste the whole batch. Instead of copying and pasting each line one by one, which was far too tedious. Whew. Let us know what other format(s) would be helpful.
We've also added frequent collaborating people and companies to person pages. For example, now you can see the most frequent people that John Romero has been credited with. Or the most frequent companies Roberta Williams has been credited along with.
There are some neat stats from this too. Who in the game industry has been credited with the most people? The answer has shared credits with 155,931 others! That's about 15% of the 1 million+ people we have documented.
Here's the changelog:
- Added ability to bulk import credits
- Added frequent collaborators page for people
- Added frequent collaborators page for companies
- Added convenience contribution links to cover, credits and screenshot pages for platforms that don’t yet have contributions
- Meta description updates for various game, company and person pages
- Fixed ordering of countries on game releases
- Approver: Can now delete images from pending credits
- Admin: Fixed country edit tools
- Misc. UI/UX improvements
- Misc. bug fixes, backend updates, optimization
