^ I’m at a loss as to why they’ve made the decision to do this. Have they given a reason, a basic reason as to WHY the forums had to be changed, and essentially reset to forums version 1.01 with essentially no crossover functionality to profiles? WHY is Battlefield 1 being made OUTSIDE of battlelog, anyway?
Is it confirmed that battlelog is being abandoned?
This is all so odd and daft.
Honestly, it concerns me a great deal about the state of battlefield 1 if this is their idea of ‘new forums’.
I pressed f5 to reset the page and it posted my comment again.
It’s like the forums we’re trying to make my point.
Why is this thread hidden away in the off-topic area???
Mods, please stick it on the front page until you have fixed all bugs in the Forum code.
Lol.
I have it from a reputable source that battlelog will not be used for BF1
There was no Internet, iPad, tablet PCs etc during WW1.
So no battlelog, battle screen or similar for the game.
Actually probably a sinister business decision, as EA/DICE learned the hard way how many resources it truly takes to support a web-app across multiple platforms and keep it up to date as those platforms frequently release OS/browser updates as well.
Seriously.
Funny that they’re trying to kill BF4 before BF1 even releases. Maybe the fear of it flopping like their last few projects has made them want to kill the competition in their own house…sounds stupid and also very EA.
Why do I have to scroll back to the top to click back into the topic list? Why? Breadcrumbs was one of the best things they had going…DON’T say anything about that arrow at the bottom right!..doesn’t even appear unless the conditions are right.
Why is Battlefeed so broken now? You KNEW they were tied together. So you just basically flipped the players a big bird. “we’re killing the forums and you guys that use Battlefeed can suck it”.
Why is the edit box two lines?
I swear to Christ…I’ll just grab a free forum from Proboards and just lead a mass exodus to a better forum put together by drunks and kids.
@mckrackin5324 what do you mean when the conditions are right? I have never had any issue with the arrow being displayed.
Couldn’t have said it better. truly disgusting and really throwing me off if regards to my expectations of BF1. Seems like EA keeps doing decisions like this so they definitely get worst comany in the us/world the 3rd time.
Well, I can say I don’t care for how the forum is setup now. It’s pretty much made it off my list of places to visit to see what is going on. So is this a sign that we doing away with Battlelog all together for future games? I surely hope so. But… This is horrible, just horrible.
Seriously, why are we going back to square one with this? Why are you drastically changing a working system?
Probably because the prior piece of system was such a pain in the to moderate.
I’m personally liking the new forums. Sure it could use a upgrade to design & layout + add in the Origin friends list and group chat, but other than that it’s feature rich compared to the Battlelog forums.
Have you guys even tried using the BBCode yet? there’s so much you can do now
You can post images & vids directly on the forum without needing better battlelog, you can pop out this text box into a full screen (the arrows in the top right corner of the reply box), and there’s emojis.
Give it some time, this thing is going to be great.
Sure but in the meantime, i’m forced to use an extension that inverts the colors just to be able to browse it…
wherez the rainy background? ;_; i cannot battlelog w/out it.
hurry, dice pls.
To each his own I guess. I actually prefer the darker background, and (for once) text isn’t so small that I have to magnify my browser just to read it in 4k.
I hope the animated backgrounds stay with the Battlelog forums. It’s a waste of hardware resources for doing something as simple as browsing, and really can bog down the Steam overlay browser.
Too bad there wasn’t an option to turn the animation off, for those who didn’t like it.
Oh wait…
no1 cares about ur hope.
Bring the rain!
The issues aren’t with what we can do here, the issue is the gross layout and disconnection with Battlelog. A system that worked well.
Layout can easily be changed as soon as they have a plan for implementation. Battlelog, for the time being, can be run in another tab.
