I wish it loaded faster, but this is a step in a nice direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parthis Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 "New" site is nice, but can't escape the feeling that TOR was released early in every way; this should have been the launch site, 1.2 should have been the launch patch with UI customisation, etc etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let it go the game is here, 1.2 is here, and new shinny forums are here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Progress is a good thing. Lamenting the past is silly, and keeps you from enjoying the present. Great work on the new site and forums, folks!

GymQuirk Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 (edited) Looks okay, but it appears that Search has been severely nerfed. Where's the "Advanced Search" for the entire forum? All I can see is the simple global search, and "advanced search" within a specific thread. Edited April 17, 2012 by GymQuirk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anzel Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 New site looks great. Love the move towards HTML5 from the older Flash stuff. The tab order is a bit off on the login page (security key) but overall the site looks great. Awesome job guys!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exphryl Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 I like the look. I HATE the new post icons though. Can't there be some type of color or something to make it easier to see what's new and what's not on a board? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parthis Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 3 posts in and already a doom and gloom post..... Let it go the game is here, 1.2 is here, and new shinny forums are here. 70% of my guild have stopped playing, i;ve just cancelled our raids for the week and the only people who log are the PvPers who were hoping for Rated Warzones with 1.2. Everything about this game is premature. It was booted out of the door at the very end of December to maintain the "2012" promise. Even the launch website came four months after launch; that's everything you need to know. It's not doom and gloom, it's reality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't there be some type of color or something to make it easier to see what's new and what's not on a board? This. It's very hard to tell which threads have new posts compared to which ones don't.

MasterKayote Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 (edited) lol, im probably the only one, but I liked the older one better. Seemed simpler and easier/faster to navigate. Nice look though I guess. Edited April 17, 2012 by MasterKayote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XavinNydek Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 It's much harder to navigate the main site now that the menu dropdowns are gone. Two clicks to get to things like patch notes rather than one, and I have to click through all of the sections to figure out where it actually is.

KrittaB Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 "New" site is nice, but can't escape the feeling that TOR was released early in every way; this should have been the launch site, 1.2 should have been the launch patch with UI customisation, etc etc etc. Honestly, I'm happy they did it the way that they did. We were able to enjoy the game for 4 months, even if it is a bit bareboned, while they got to fix what they couldn't sort out. Now (and 1.3) will be adding back all those quality of life systems.

StealthStalker Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Christ, it's scaled so large... I hope I can reduce that and/or just go back to the old forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exphryl Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 This. It's very hard to tell which threads have new posts compared to which ones don't. Since they enabled color when hovering over a thread title for the whole row, that'd be super convienent if it was just an entire different color for a new post.

Appletaz Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 (edited) Yes nice. It even has a rate-the-thread area. (Would really like a "like" button for individual posts too) and finally, you can click to the first unread post. I like that. Now, I wonder, will it indicate which posts I have posted in? (yep, just checked it out, and it does! Hurray. With so many posts with similar titles and subjects, this has been needed for a long time!!)
