CC's new look

by **jammyjames** on Tue Jun 24, 2014 2:54 am

Wierdly, the only layout change i've had so far is the stupid notification of which colour I am, and the notification of which phase / spoils.

Still remains relatively the same for me, just with 10 x the bugs and dissatisfaction.

Have you filed a bug report for any of them?

A couple of things.

I'm not a great fan of the new look but hey times change. More importantly some things don't work.

1. The facebook login doesn't seem to work properly on desktop.
2. The facebook login definately doesn't work properly on iPad. it states "there are too many redirects" then closes the window down.
3. The jump to next game button does not work on iPad. It works on desktop, in fact there is no optipon at all on iPad, instead of the jump arrow there is a refresh symbol!

Please fix these issues, they can't be that hard. This site was perfect before the change, now its worse.

P.s. If ive posted this in wrong place i'm very sorry!!

All of the bugs I have stated, have previously been mentioned. I would assume that these would have already had bug reports filled out therefore there would be no need to alert further to any issues?

Yes and no.

It's true that all the bugs have been reported at one time or another. However, there often isn't enough evidence for the programmers to figure out what's causing it. Every bug report, especially if it carries detailed information -- your exact browser and O/S version, what you were doing when the bug popped up, does it occur all the time or only sporadically, does it occur only with small version of map but not large map, etc., etc. -- can be useful. It never hurts to add to a bug report thread if you are experiencing a bug that other people are. The piece of evidence you add just might be the one that finally allows them to figure it out.

How?

I have it set up so that action, log, chat and stats are below the map, everything else is hidden on the side as I don't use those as much.

yeah... that didn't work at all... don't even see the little arrow deal that is supposed to pop up... everything must work on the computers of the designers of this atrocity due to the coding programs being on your machines or something... i don't know how this was rolled out with this many issues for so many people without anyone seeing ANY of this before it was done... just makes no sense that we see all of these real world issues and the secret beta team thought this was ready to roll...-el Jesus negro

p.s.-however... i do think it is clever to now hide the dice so people can't complain... i have no idea where in the f my dice are now... haven't seen them since the dillo dirt was dumped on the site...

Just throwing my two cents in...in case we are taking a poll or something. I'm with everyone else. I really don't like the new layout. I play on different devices, but mostly on an iPad. The new layout forces me to try and tap on these really small icons that I have scroll to the top right to find. The left side panel ( used to have logout, game menu, announcements etc) disappears on map screens and makes navigation a pain. I have seen a few of the bugs, but I think most of those have gone away. Basically, I think you should put these kind of navigation buttons in, they should be located maybe just under the maps and larger.

by **Rhino.** on Wed Jun 25, 2014 11:35 am

Not great for mobile either. I use an iPad mostly and it is pretty bad. The left navigation sidebar disappears when you go into a map and you have to try and scroll over to find tiny icons to click and navigate in the top right.

Is the link to the specific tournament for tournament games coming back, or was that phased out? It's very helpful to know which tournament a game is part of, especially for tournaments that have different scoring rules.

I was on vacation and came back to the new changes. I thought my sitters had swapped my settings around. =)

the tournament link is still there. if you hover over it it'll give you the name.

by **macbone** on Thu Jun 26, 2014 2:14 am

Ah, yes, I see. The link is gone from the mobile version, but it's still there in the normal version. I'd love to have the tournament name reinstated without having to hover over it, though.

This is one of several things I brought up about two pages ago.

On the ipad and am still finding the site harder to navigate than before. Now being an incompetent I would be tempted to blame myself, however judging by the other comments...

I DO like the new colour-coded deploy/assault/fort buttons..they are pretty cool.

Generally I have been pleased with the recent updates (poly games, the clan page etc) so am more than willing to cut team cc some slack, but I do think there is work to be done on the latest update as it does seem strange that the site is harder to navigate on an ipad after an update designed to improve 'the experience of mobile users'!!!!

When I am in my game on this iPad, the whole left side menu is gone. In addition, the "i" button does not appear to do anything. I use the left side menu to navigate to other games. I rarely play turns in order..to many team games and chat going on there.

The inbox, walls, forum, etc are all part of forum software and when you are there it doesn't show (yet). It only has left side quick link while in games / my games non forum software areas.

Left menu does go away on iPad. If u aren't using panels i won't do anything as it's meant for panel viewing info. Click on the "head" icon to go back to my games page

Soooo, will this be fixed then? I would really like to have that left side panel back.

the tournament name is gone because it covers up the time if it's too long.

He's being sarcastic mate.

Still a pain not having tournament names on games. In fact, it's stupid and wouldn't be hard to at least put another line underneath.

Just echoing what Mr Changsha said - I play mostly on the iPad, this update makes it much less usable. Having to toggle between two screens to see snaps, the overview, etc sucked. Now I've played with my game settings to see if maybe I could fix it, and now I've even lost the "begin turn" button and that little "i" button, I can't start my turn!
