I like the ideas of the new features, though I hope the roots stay simplistic and things are more organized. The forums are an eyesore right now though I figure there’s already a theme in progress or something.
I’d also like that extension’s features to be looked at for addition to the new Battlefield forum. I hadn’t heard of it before, but, as I’ve already said, I feel the Battlelog forums are missing on features.
Also, the old UK Battlefield forums had dedicated sub-forums for discussing maps, strategy & tactics, weapons, gameplay design, and maybe some other things. I’d like to see these subjects return.
On the Battlelog Bf4 forums, there’s no opportunity for quality discussion about the more sophisticated side of Battlefield, because everything gets discussed in one general forum. The result with that is that the conversations are pushed off the front page too quickly, and there are too many watered-down topics, and topics aren’t being seen by those who they’re most relevant to. By not having dedicated sub-forums to specific aspects of Battlefield, the quality of discussion has been greatly reduced.
I Love the promote, like/dislike, abusive vote feature on the profiles as long as they are used the right way. I know these are just forums, but I would love to see clan support feature and birds eye view of each map (once released) that you can draw on and post on clan pages. Any better battlelog features not apart of BF4 forum would be a nice addition as well. Show veteran status as well.
Side note some developer diarys and tough forum Easter eggs would be great too. Maybe something that isn’t mentioned and doesn’t unlock until you hit 500 posts?
Gaps have been improved a little bit.
Post Counter has been fixed.
Quotes and BBCode has also been fixed.
We are working on the theme of things, this may take a little bit of time, as already explain these forums are effectively in early access - Things will change drastically as time goes on (and have been changing)
Guys, the gap is still enormous. It looks amateur at best, honestly. Not fitting for what’s supposed to be the replacement for Battlelog. Just look at the two.. One looks clean, clear, everything is obvious and well designed.
The other looks depressingly dark, no background makes it even worse, the threads are 6 miles apart from one another even thought it’s a LIST, and clicking Enter to go one line down makes the forum skip a line (go two lines down).
