Why is everything black and white? There isn’t a single image on the page… Why such a massive backwards step? Also, the old forums used to give me a list of threads at the top that I had commented on recently so I could easily go back and see how the conversation was changing, that was the single best feature of the forums and it’s gone now. It all makes me a sad panda ---

So I like the notification system but I was wondering if there was a possibility to disable notification for threads individually. I like knowing when someone responds in a thread, but some threads I don’t need to get notified about responses. ---

With all due respect this new forum reminds me of the launch of BF4, unfinished! Why release a new forum if its a work in development? I love BF but pushing stuff out before it is ready is not a good look. ---

I love BF but pushing stuff out before it is ready is not a good look. agreed you’d think they had learned from past mistakes. I just hope they have taken their eye off the ball with this cause they are so busy making bf1 awesome and maybe (wishful thinking) just fixing up battlelog to make it sync with this and we will all be happy. who am I kidding. ---

I’m sure these forums will get better overtime, but at the moment it certainly feels like a step back. I have no doubt that in a year these forums will be awesome! ---

Personally I think the categories page needs some sort of lines to show the sections. I find myself scrolling for awhile trying to figure out what forum section I want. Possibly highlight the sections? " Battlefield 1 " maybe not red but I’m sure you know what I mean. ---

I understand it is to cut down on spam, but that was never a problem on regular battlelog to begin with 😑 > Now i could understand like 30 seconds or 60, but 2 minutes is really way too long. And the fact that it stacks, makes it worse. If you try to post before that two minutes is up, well buddy you got to wait ANOTHER 2 minutes… > > Stuff like this makes this forum a pain to use… I cant say I will ever fell at home here unless stuff like this is dealt with. 120 secs did not seem to stop Mang from flooding the forums with pointless somebody please talk to me posts. For people like him they need a one topic a week rule so as to keep people from doing what he has already done. I meen really over 600 posts alrerady??? The guy is talking to himself. “Is that constructive”?? The colors might be nicer but this admittily is easy to see and read. I dont like how much space a single posts needs on a page but they are probably working on that already. ---

I honestly don’t think that because everyone can see it is a reasonable reason in this day and age. I just don’t think it is wise to sell a adult game then to treat the “adults” like children in the forum. Sorry for the rant but this kinda stuff makes me crazy. > > And then this forums turns from civil to savage central. The problem are the adults with a limited vocabulary who act like children. And Children that have yet to learn foul language does not make you an adult or a winner in a discussion. ---

> [@KkuZuH](#): > > This new forum is an absolute joke its chaotic, not user friendly and lack of innovation.Terrible. Definitely appreciate feedback (positive or negative), but could you try to offer suggestions rather than just negativity? I guarantee I’m reading all feedback and am working with the forum software team to continually revise and improve this, but generalized statements such as yours really offer no serious insight into us improving it. Just a suggestion to move forward and work together. Thanks! -Braddock512- ---

fair play braddocks. I am probably guilty of similar too just an immediate angry reaction. Here is my positive feedback: there are obvious layout visual issues not clear the departments etc. the notifications are useful but instead of getting 50 notifications all about the same thread it would be better to get 1 notification saying that 50 people have commented on the said thread. my biggest issue with the forums is the disassociation with battlefield and more specifically battlelog. It was so much nicer just using battlelog for all things battlefield and all battlefields together. It seems this is being made to separate from the other bf’s. Its nice to be able to click on someones profile and actually see what they are all about. You can tell a lot more about a person from their stats and game history than you can on a created profile on here with a photo and thats it. Its not just the stats battlelog is great for checking your assignment progress, platoon stuff, messaging friends, seeing who is online and not online in a forum online in the game you actually want to play and lets face it thats why we are all here for the love of the game and to play together. I really hope you can get it to a state where people enjoy using it soon as its not great for the hype and feelings towards the new game. It also feels like you are forgetting about all the dedicated players and forum users from all past bf’s too. thanks for listening hope things are better soon. ---

We are testing various options on forum flow, usability, visuals, etc. That is one option. It has not yet been fully vetted, but it is a front-runner among the possible themes. -Braddock512- ---

One thing that annoys me: If you are on the ‘Recent Discussions’ tab then select a thread, after reading said thread, clicking the back button doesn’t take you back to ‘Recent Discussions’! ---

I look at a topic. I hit back. Takes me to Favorites. Where, inexplicably, my favorites contains the PC Hardline community. I navigate by using my browser back button. I click on a topic. And don’t fully back out of said topic by using the back button, but rather try using the forum headers. Which direct me to the first poster’s gravatar? I don’t need to see this? Then I hit recent discussions, but it doesn’t show MY discussions, but those of the first poster’s. Cannot create a post on mobile. Really? I don’t understand why this is a work in progress. Why direct us to a place that isn’t functional?
