FaithWhisper Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 It's too dark for my eyes. Why not give us the option of a dark or light mode? And what did they do with font size - made it smaller by default or? Also I'm on the wagon of more distinct separation of posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bondKI Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 I actually like the new style. Looks in general alot better than the old one did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toliman Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 it's nice, but it looks suspiciously like battle.net ... what can i say, i like to start trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qoojo Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 I am surprised there are no other color choices, at least that I could find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larity Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 People are just complaining about everything. I'm waiting to see posts about how the weather is and how its bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyaka Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 I find it vastly amusing, and quite enlightening that the same people who hate the new world events...also hate the website redesign. I guess it just affirms that some people are never happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrunoLogan Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 This is amazing! Even because of this there is people complaining! Some people must have a terrible life. They're never happy with anything. There are alternate colors on the posts and the line separating the signature from the post text. What more do you want?

xeenz Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 First time I came here I thought it looked terrible (The old design), but got used to it. Now THIS looks more of a quality website! Still got to get used to the change but, it looks pretty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are alternate colors on the posts and the line separating the signature from the post text. What more do you want? Maybe we want things like to be able to glance at a forum and tell which thread has new posts easily? Or maybe people have bad vision and have trouble distinguishing between two very similar colors. Most people with complaints aren't saying "OMG this is terrible!" they're just pointing out that there are some things that the new design made more difficult compared to the old one.

StealthStalker Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 I've got no issue with the color scheme, it's the scale of the font and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chimex Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 I like it, much better than the huge sea of blue. Oddly enough, feels a little more star wars-y x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaithWhisper Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 (edited) I'm not complaining, just stating how I feel and what I'd like to see instead. I like the design,just not the colors - which is why I suggested a light mode for those of us finding it too dark.

RavenGlenn Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 My biggest complain is that the new layout and color scheme is hard on my eyes. Like...literally difficult for my eyes to adjust and read. I can feel the strain in them as I read over this very thread. I think the color scheme is way too dark and the layout does not focus your eyes where they are supposed to go, which is the first thing you learn in any college design course. All this frameless/borderless stuff is terrible on the eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grania Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 I like how the dev tracker, server status and patch notes are placed very prominently. The font size will take some getting used to, though I haven't looked around much yet; maybe there are settings? Well anyway, I was wondering what was taking so long this morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blistrich Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 It's dark and the font is... well... ambitious. Reminds me of the changes to the LOTRO site last year. Will take getting used to, but it isn't all that bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're never happy with anything. There are alternate colors on the posts and the line separating the signature from the post text. What more do you want? Actually it might be more like this scenario: Post constructive comments, get zero response from Bioware, get flamed, ignore flames, and try again. Post constructive comments, get zero response from Bioware, get flamed, respond to flames, and get warning. Post less constructive comments, get flamed, report flames, and reports ignored. Post complaints, because by this time you don't care and it's fun. Edited April 17, 2012 by WookieePower Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tikigit Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Alternative colouring is fine in itself. However there are a few readability problems I have already found myself experiencing, due to the up size of pretty much everything. On initial forum load, at 1600x900 resolution the banner header takes up most of the screen realestate, and what little I can see of the forums is a over inflated image and rather large side links to the developer tracker. I am guessing the redesign was aiming for easier accessibility... but may have gone slightly over board with the super sizing every single button, link and image humanly possible, when even typing this post requires me to scroll down the page to see the full post creation frame.
