Is it possible to turn off achievements notifications?

Post by kfheen »

At least those banners covering my screen regularly? I don't need the inbox messages either. I was hoping buying Premium would let me get rid of them, but I can't find any options for it.

Only when you play a new game you get them more.. otherwise it is very rare to get one.. one click and it is gone.. so don’t see why it is annoying..

And when you win twice in a row, have played a game 10 times, or for a ertain length, or with a new number of opponents... at least I get a handful or them everyday, and it is just annoying, as I play for fun. I miss Yucatas function for optioning out of all kinds of ratings.

yes, it is unfortunate that these are forced upon you, and there are so many of them. Since they were introduced I've gotten an average of 1 achievement for every 2 games played.

I don't mind the achievements, but when you get a bunch of them in a row it feels like a faff having to clear each of them. It would be nice to have the option to opt out of them, or at least have them option of having the notifications a bit more discrete/less obtrusive.

You should try adding it as a suggestion in the bug section and seeing what kind of response it gets

I often learn new games and play them a couple of times and it's annoying me too. Please remove the banner for minor achievements like x games played (x<1000) or y wins in a row (y<10) and many others. For big achievements it's fine, but the massive amount of them makes those banners rediculous.
