Would the trophy be a table item?

That is great news as these are another selection of A1 suggestions, also congratulations on the repurchase of Prominence!

REPLY TO ANDY AND RHODES
I believe you are both correct and with a compromise of both ideas we could achieve perfection. I suggest that the Telegraphing should remain in the game for those who enjoy it, however when not on a players turn the option to hold RB and not telegraph your move should also be an option. On a players turn however you are not able to use the RB button and must telegraph all decisions. Let me know what you guys think?

Hi, i’ve got a few suggestions since starting.

  1. More movement animation. Some you can unlock when as achievements, or buy through the shop.

  2. When somebody disconnects, animate their player needing to take a bathroom break, or having an argument with an official until they return.

  3. Have more data displayed on the hub. Being able to access information like your last 5-10 hands, other players Win or Lose record as a simple “WWLWL” near their name.

  4. When players are using their microphone in chat, have a speaker display above their head to let other players know they’re there. I think it would be benificial if using chat was encouraged more in this game.

  5. The ability to play Casual games while waiting in the lobby for tournments to fill up. Make it so players can reserve their spot and, as long as they stay connected to the server, they can continue playing casual games. They will be giving a 1 minute warning when the game is full, after which they are automatically taken into the other game.

Per my other thread More on "Fake" Poker Accusations... (from a programmer) I’m adding my suggestions here since this is the specific thread.

  1. “Speed” tables with a shorter time limit for players to make their move.

  2. “Spread” tables where bets/raises can only be within a set limit (eg. between 100 and 1,000 chips on 10k buy-in tables). Since one of the biggest complaints is people just going all-in all the time and turning the game into “Poker lottery”.

  3. Cross-platform play would be amazing!

  4. Maybe if you have a hand above a certain rank (eg. trips) then there’s a “confirmation” thing before you can fold. I accidentally folded a killer full house the other day on the river after betting it big since the flop. I was mortified.

  5. More emoji thingies would be awesome: thumbs up, yawns, some kind of WTF reaction, etc. I could probably think of quite a few of these.

  6. I also agree the telegraphing should stay. I know it’s not a good idea to telegraph one’s moves but you can also “trick” other players with such things. One of the things I love about PP is that you can see when other players are checking their hole cards, etc. This is something you never had on older online poker rooms and it’s a valuable tool for seasoned Poker players to know when their opponents are checking to see if they have a potential flush, etc. after the flop arrives.

  7. “Paid access” rooms for serious players. I mean like private rooms but where you pay maybe an annual subscription for access to them. This would eliminate the possibility of playing against 8 year olds that don’t know what they’re doing and I’d certainly be willing to pay PP some $$ for this feature.

Finally, I’d like to reiterate my offer from my other thread with regards to helping implementing some of the logic for the suggestions. I don’t need paying–I just want to help make PP even more awesome than it already is and have happy players! I have 3 decades experience C/C++, SQL databases, and worked on several Poker software products since the early 2000’s.

Cross-Platform servers, please. It should’ve been added back in 2017

It’s no excuse and I’m not defending the developers however the game was sold and recently repurchased, while yes they did promise cross play they literally have had barely any time to work on it, I’m confident they will come through on their promise of cross play :slight_smile:

That’s not a bad idea! But I was talking about the PlayStation trophies

I think that is a great compromise, leaves the option to telegraph or not…Love it
now let’s get this game across platforms, there just isn’t enough traffic on steam to play a tournament. I sat there for 30 minutes waiting for a provisional game to start, that is too long to have to wait…good thing I am bed ridden and have nothing else to do LOL

I’m crying laughing, I forgot PlayStation achievements are trophies. Thank you for letting me know, I agree some trophies would be great for the Sony boys, we have achievements on Xbox maybe they can transfer those over.

I totally agree with the person that said the splash messages (happy hour, etc.) should be in the bottom right rather than top right. They cover player’s cards and/or betting info and it gets a bit annoying.

Is there some info somewhere about all the nuances of the software? I mean, I’ve been playing only 3 weeks so far and it’s taken this long to figure out what the heck a “boost” is, and also what the little red and green icons are when you highlight a particular player’s info box. I would still like to know why, with some players’ info boxes, their chip position number (circley thingy containing the big 1 thru 6) has a special border? Also, how many “rep” points does it take to move up a rank?

I’ve really enjoyed the game over the years and am pleased to see it’s being worked on again.

I’m sure it’s probably come as a surprise just how popular it is, while the surrounding story etc. is take or leave it, you really nailed enjoyable online poker with a charming and detailed atmosphere to relax in.

Saying that, if additions are being made to PP then it sorely needs new venues (more poker / casino styled if I was choosing), more emoji things to pick from and more animations overall as well as a basic text chat for console versions. This doesn’t have to be complicated just allow players to pick from a number of phrases to cover a variety of moods and emotions.

Of course more cosmetic choices are always welcome but largely the above would have a major impact on the experience.

I’d love to see perhaps some official partnerships with WSOP or WPT for example, bringing some branding and broadcast elements into play in the style of the PS3 WSOP game but that’s just a personal wish.

Other games are trying to replicate this but none actually nail the poker or the atmosphere and feel like I’m playing against Mannequins.

Thanks for listening!

Some more emoji/emotions besides the “yawn”, “thumbs up” and “WTF” ones I mentioned earlier…

  • A “phew” motion would be nice
  • Some kind of “sorry” motion
  • A “face palm” motion

Also, I think it would be fun if, when a player gets called out trying to bluff, that their pants burst into flames for a second–maybe with some lingering smoke for a couple more seconds. Although I’m not sure…this may encourage people to bluff much more.

9 player tables. MTT

I believe I can answer that for you, so the 1 through 6 is a ranking of who holds the most cash at the table, like a mini scoreboard. The actual image contained with the number is their rank from ranked games. If you have any further questions don’t hesitate to ask :slight_smile:

Xbox Recently Played With… protocol in Xbox Live. Why doesn’t Prominence use this system? It makes it so easy to chat with people you played with after your session to tell them GG.

Back in the Xbox 360 days, I used to play Full House Poker. They had a live weekly tournament/event at a certain time and If I remember correctly the winner got Microsoft points or something of the sort. I think it would be really engaging if Prominence did something like this. Microsoft points dont exist anymore but maybe there could be Loot Crates, Boosters, Chips , etc. Awarded for the winner(s). Depending on the time of day Id be on like clockwork.
Side note: To represent my " unique " hairstyle IRL, I think it would be cool to add a “Mullet” for my avatar in game. Also maybe some stylish masks too.

Hello, I’m new to the game. I’m lost here on the forum. I’m ranked 1. I’d like to know how I move up the ranks. Thank you very much.

Hi, I’m playing on PC version. I’ve noticed most players aren’t playing ranked tournaments, probably cause the queue times are far too long. Please make it possible to play casual ring games while queued up for ranked tournaments(this is a no brainer). Maybe also consider adjusting your ranked points system to encourage higher ranked players to play at lower ranks, eg. If a Platinum player plays at Gold let the range be -30 to +25 I think it would be better to get shorter queue times than to worry about higher skilled players farming points from lower ranked players in a game like poker.

Welcome GuniGamer72!
I think you just keep playing, and the more you win the more reward.

Welcome Pisce!
I like your ideas. When others suggested similar I thought it’d be cool to sign up for a tourney and have a buzzer notification so you could quickplay without losing your place in queue.
