2 PSN accounts hit trophy level cap

[Jaggy2872]

2 PSN accounts (BIELERIC & Pockidrive) hit the PSN level cap. This is apparently level 100 @ 1%. Whether or not this is legit (although I doubt it) or with a group of gamers all converging on 1 account, this is impressive to see an account at that level.

So I’m writing a lot about trophies today, but in the process of writing my recent article about how PSN’s trophy system needs work, I discovered something on the worldwide trophy leaderboards that wasn’t there yesterday, two PSN users (BIELERIC and Pockidrive) have hit level 100, and they are both at 1% in that level with one person having several hundred more “trophy points” then the other person also at level 100.

It appears that they are locked in at this level now and cannot move past 100 no matter how many more trophies they get, this is very interesting to me as I have always wondered if there was a cap.


There was a trophy level cap at one point, which was level 50, and Sony pushed that cap up as players reached it, if that is true, will Sony push the cap up again, or let it stop there? To me, 100 is a good number to make it the highest possible level so it will be interesting to see if Sony actually increases the cap this time around.


To put it into perspective, it took these players over 20,000 bronze trophies, over 7,000 silver, about 2,400 gold, and over 450+ platinum trophies to get here. A whopping 30,000+ total trophies.

I also wonder if Sony will up the cap. I doubt they expected to see anyone hit this number. Also wonder if they will have a cap-free PSN on the PS4.

Congrats to them, if this is true. I thought Hakoom had the highest trophy level, I guess not.

So third place is still open?

[Krysta91]

wow, there's gaming and then there's GAMING. damn, that's

edit- yes, awesome if it's legit

[theboykiller01]

Congrats for them

Yep Pockidrive is so amazing he managed to hit Level 25 and 50 in Borderlands 2 at the same exact time. As far as I'm concerned if you do that it nullifies your entire trophy list.

[great_daze_tazer]

They are either trophy hunting teams, hackers or really really have no god damn life & an ass inprint in their poor couch. Trophy level means nothing to me so I really don't care what they do.

Hakoom is currently 12th place on our leaderboard

Hack? Legit? Who give a poop? If they hacked they hacked cuz its fun if they did it for legit they legited cuz it was fun! Sooooo.....

Also why are they always only talking about PSN? Does Xbox Live have a limit??

[STRANGEgenius]

Still low lifes.

Probably because I was looking around for stuff on PS3 and whatnot. If you want info on Xbox, there are the Xbox sites or the forum on here for Microsoft. As far as Xbox Live, I don't think they have a cap.

Congratz to them for hitting the level Cap. If they hacked or not it really shows they love to game lol.

So third place is still open?

Yup still open. I'll be rooting for ya.

Hacking is not "fun".

If it's legit, good for them.

[The Secret Society]

C'mon I think we all know none of these level caps were done legit
Fun or not I don't care about trophy levels
ive been level 19 for many months

To each there own I guess

[Denaratuck]

Well that didn't take very long for someone to hit the new level cap. I doubt I'll ever even hit 50 so if they raise it again it will only enable more hackers to keep on climbing.

[APriceless]

A friend on PSN sent me a photo of BIELERIC's account earlier today. That is pretty awesome. I doubt Sony won't raise the cap.

[Helyx]

Hack your way to the top, like a boss.

[DaRe_xLw]

Again?

I remember Hakoom, Duck360, and a couple other accounts exceeding the cap about two years ago when it was at 50. I'm surprised this breaking 100 didn't happen a little sooner honestly.

If Sony decides to raise the cap again, it might be up to 150 or 200.

[Jaggy2872]

I don't understand the point of a cap. Realistically, it only prevents those that care to that unhealthy point from doing anything else. But for those of us that just play, we won't be near that cap any time soon. They should just be done with it or make it so high that it is near impossible to reach.

[Trogdorbear]

awwwwwww so cute, level 100 !!! now take a cookie

NOW GET A REAL LIFE! YOUR HAND IS NOT YOUR GIRLFRIEND !!

[cengizbobengiz]

Hakoom is number 1 according to PSN Profiles, so I'm going to go ahead and assume he reached it first.
