Google: Ending Support for Multiplayer APIs in Play Games Services

• scrollaway 7y ago
  I don't know how popular those are and I thought for a moment they just announced this shutdown. It appears it was announced back in September. https://www.neowin.net/news/google-is-ending-support-for-multiplayer-apis-in-play-games-services/ https://www.neowin.net/news/google-is-ending-support-for-mul...

    No, Google Play Games multiplayer APIs have been announced at least 6 years ago and I don't think they were used much by anyone. I doubt anyone in the Android world is actually surprised about this.

      I think GP meant that the discontinuation was announced in September (which is what the linked article is about).

  Could someone at Google configure search so that results do not get clogged with many tutorials and examples from discontinued products?

    There was a very successful prototype project for that. In fact, with thousands of happy crowdsourced users doing heavy lifting, obsolete tutorials would be a thing of the past. It was beautiful. We even brought in professional writers to author top-notch tutorials for cleaning up results concerning obsoleted projects. Shortly thereafter, the entire project was canceled and its assets were used to generate CAPTCHA tests only seen by Firefox users.

      I wish I would know if you are serious.
