Achievements & Notification System Iteration

 

Purpose

To stabilize the newly introduced rewards tier system, refine achievement tracking accuracy, and improve persistence across sessions while continuing gradual rollout of community-driven engagement features.

 

 

Key Highlights

🎯 Achievement Tracking Improvements

  • Expanded achievement triggers to cover:
     • Win streak continuation
     • Comeback scenarios (multi-round recovery)
     • Consistent participation thresholds
  • Backend validation ensures achievements are only awarded once per condition set.
  • Achievement state now versioned to support future rule updates without data conflicts.

📥 Notification Feed Persistence Fixes

  • Achievement and tier notifications now persist across logout/login sessions.
  • Feed storage migrated to centralized user activity store (previously session-bound).
  • Improved load performance for notification history retrieval.

🧪 Community Achievement QA Phase

  • First batch of community-inspired achievements internally tested (e.g., streak-based, recovery-based events).
  • Feedback loop established between moderation/admin panel and dev logs for validation before public exposure.

 

Why It Matters

  • Accurate achievement tracking builds trust in the system and prevents user frustration from missed or duplicated rewards.
  • Persistent notifications ensure players remain aware of progress milestones.
  • Community-driven achievements strengthen platform identity and retention.

 

Open Issues

  • Some achievement triggers delayed under high match concurrency conditions.
  • Notification feed pagination not fully optimized for older accounts with large histories.

 

Fixed

  • Achievement duplication bug resolved when users reconnect mid-match.
  • Notification feed no longer resets after session timeout.

 

Next Steps

  • Expand achievement system to include community/social actions (referrals, reports, fair play).
  • Begin internal testing for seasonal reward resets aligned with ladder cycles.
