I was digging through the Raptr settings trying to get it to stop sending me email for really stupid things.
Along the way I found myself in the “Identities and Achievements” section of the settings. I was wondering if any games I play might have had their achievements synced up with Raptr since I last looked. So far, no, but I did spy a setting for another service.
You can enter your Xfire account. And, more importantly, you can then import your hours tracked on Xfire into Raptr.
I suppose that shouldn’t be a big deal, since the team at Raptr was the team that did Xfire originally.
The upshot of this is that a bunch of tracking data of mine from Xfire is now reflected in my Raptr profile. To give you an idea how old some of this data is, I have a new elite ranking for…
I was playing Battlefield 1942… and specifically the Desert Combat mod for it… before EverQuest II came out.
That was back when the main reason I ran Xfire was to be able to launch games and jump onto the same server as a friend. Is that even still a feature of either Xfire or Raptr any more?
Haha, that’s me in 2nd place! Guess I’ll need to load up 1942 so that I can “outrank” you and send you one of those annoying emails that you were trying to get rid of in the first place…
