Bugs:
- When scrolling down the main page /games, when your cursor comes to the “trending” widget, you can no longer scroll. This is actually pretty annoying hehe..
- In regular search, the result is tagged with “games”. Should be “Games” with capital G.
- When trying to bookmark a game:
Suggestions for changes/improvements:
- Search bar should be at the top of the page for better visibility.
- Auto-complete on the following:
- Option to REMOVE all ratings given by a user in ACP. (Purge ratings from X user). This is to remove ratings done with malicious intent.
- Rating number should be given a bit more space on the game banner on the game page as well as a text beside it.
Larger and possibly have a color? Example: One star – [rating nr in color as below] Very Poor – 3 ratings.
- Info text alongside the rating area to help users give correct ratings. Better and more accurate ratings is important, as it improves the data-set in your database. You WANT to avoid at all cost, users just adding 1 and 5 star reviews, it really ruins the value of the ratings.
“Rate the game overall, try to be precise! 3 stars represent a good game you would play again; reserve 5 stars for exceptional PERFECT games only. See guideline below:”
Do you want to play this again?
1.0 Never again (game breaking flaws)
1.5 Generally avoid (more frustrating than enjoyable)
2.0 Rarely want to play (some good ideas, but significant shortcomings)
2.5 Very occasional play (mixed, enjoyable in parts, but with some clear drawbacks)
3.0 Play now and then (an enjoyable game)
3.5 Happily play again (strong game with good theme/mechanics)
4.0 Always ready to play (excellent game - very enjoyable!)
4.5 Prefer over most games (exceptional game! One of the best ever played!
5.0 Always excited to play (PERFECT game, you are just stunned how incredibly addicting and perfectly made this game is – ZERO flaws or shortcomings!).
- Smart SEO URL on the database entries. Instead of “game 1-2-3 etc”, use the name in the URL (as well as the unique number ID).
- Allow to select in ACP which forums are “open” when you press button “+Discuss this game”.
- Could you allow full thread editor for this? So maybe two buttons – “quick post thread” or “view full post editor”? (open new page).
- Should the title of the game be greyed out when creating thread? So, users are forced to name them [game name] – [their title]. This will keep all threads related to X and Y in the thread list east to see what game it belongs to.
- Discussions tab having support for thread prefixes? Would be awesome for visibility on the game page, so you can have [game balance], [strategy], [news] etc.
- Integration with XFMG and XFRM? (add files or add images to game).
- Compare games page: Should be field for auto-complete instead of drop-down no? With 1000 entries a drop-down isn’t very feasible?
- Subscribe to a game? Will notify the user if new games are posted (linked to that game), new reviews, new posts/threads.
