What happened to seeing all of the users who are "Now Playing" a specific game?  Or seeing all the games a particular person is "Now Playing"?

What is going on with the forum widths?  It seems like most of them are set to be the same width as my screen, but there are a handful of posts that stick out further to the right.

A computer screen is not a sheet of paper. Black letters on a white background are an eyesore.



"Well certainly with the Xbox 360, we had some challenges at the launch. Once we identified that we took control of it. We wanted to do it right by our customers. Our customers are very important to us." -Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb (10/2013). Note: RRoD was fixed with the Jasper-revision 3 years after the launch of 360

"People don't pay attention to a lot of the details."-Yusuf Mehdi explaining why Xbone DRM scheme would succeed

"Fortunately we have a product for people who aren't able to get some form of connectivity; it's called Xbox 360,”-Don Mattrick

"The region locking of the 3DS wasn't done for profits on games"-MDMAlliance

Yeah, my biggest complaint is a lack of crossover between the GamrReview game pages and the VGChartz game pages. Other than that (and the fact that every link and banner is now broken in my Recommendation Guide/Million Sellers Club/Wii games of 2010 threads... ) I'm liking 3.0 very much.

I mean, every complaint I have is nullified by the fact that we can see every sales week for each and every game. Awesome.

When vgchartz updated to 2.0 a while ago, people were complaining about how it hurts to read white text on a dark background. You'll get used to it.

What the hell my posts are empty but I got a large post of text I'm trying to post.

 

edit: this one worked!

 

- Horrible white background, would like the option to change it to something dark.  Who came up with the idea of lime green font on white?

 

- The entire site is horrible to navigate, everything on VGC 2.0 was clearly viewed from the main page, I could see the latest sales, latest 20 or so posts in every section of the forum almost, latest news headlines, latest reviews.  Like this I will probably now be ignoring news articles completely, same for reviews, same for sales.  I'll stick to the forum only since navigating pages away to view the other stuff which may not even have updated with anything new is a waste of time.  I thought improving things was to streamline them to make them faster and easier to use, not make them more awkward and time consuming.  I know there is the hub page but that barely shows anything.

 

- Can no longer view my games collection as a whole, instead everything is broken up into different consoles and even then you can only view 20 at a time before you got to click to view the next page.  It doesn't even list games alphabetically and to view all 20 per page you need scroll a hell of a lot.  The VGC2.0 layout was miles better where I could see my entire collection and they were all spaced out nicely and clearly next to eachother, in alphabetical order.

 

In fact I'm going to stop with the list of issues since they can mostly be summerised as what took me one or two clicks before now takes twenty.

 

Also, has coloured text dissapeared because I'm not seeing the option?

 


I could not have said it better myself....

It would be nice if we could filter our walls and the activity feed, so it's easier to sort out irrelevant info.

And has been said, cross-site links (sales in the game database as well, etc.) would be welcome.

And just for good measure, better hot topics functionality (like what we had in 2.0).

Some signatures are too wide for the new forums. I made this thread because of this: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=110579



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

Watch my insane gameplay videos on my YouTube page!

Oh, and I'd really like to see if Rainbird is online right now, but I'm too scared to check his profile! How will I ever know if Rainbird is online or not on the forums?

The "Messages" button on the left-hand side of the screen doesn't work.

The "Biography" section of the profile does not display correctly.  For example, mine says "Hobbies" where it should say "Favorite Games" and it says "Forum Signature" where it should say "About Me".  In the settings, Hobbies and Forum Signature are one spot below Favorite Games and About Me respectively.  I'm guessing something is messed up in the code for this.
