I like the dashboard better

Poor Ale, because he currently is in 290 multiday games, he must be having heavy loading times. Scrolling down must take a while for him too though

Xapy, Again, I'm calling it as I see it, I'm not insulting you, I'm telling you my opinion, its like an arsehole everyone has one. I'm not right, but nor am I wrong. Again, Fizzer said he was making "Enough" money, but he also stated in the livestream today that when he told people what game he's made, he's had to repeat it several times along with spelling it out.

I'm calling you as I see you, I'm not insulting you, but you're an uneducated kindergartener who needs potty training with his mama. Also, I don't care about Warlight being changed to Warzone - though some may whine about it a bit, it might prove better for more folk to come to play the game and it doesn't really affect playability (while taking out My/Open Games does).

And its not "hip", its called advancing with the times. Everything does, sorry that the one thing that truly made you happy, you had to bookmark. But honestly the Dashboard offers much more in the long term than the Open Games and My Games tabs. Instead of trying to revert things back to the way they were. Maybe you could try and advance the Dashboard to something better.

I'm fine with "advancing with the times" - but why should you take away, say, books written in 2009 when it's 2015? They're still books and still very useful. And I even offered a solution without bringing back My/Open Games - make Dashboard much more customisable. "Maybe. Someday." was Fizzer's response - and I don't disagree that this would be some work, but bringing back My/Open Games would be hardly any.

And yes, I am aware that your clan has me on a clanwide blacklist.

Honestly, Warlight was better before the update but that is just because before the update we saw a "full picture", now with Fizzer "redrawing" a new "picture" we only see the "sketch marks". Give it time and it will be better in the long run.

Don't show your painting before it's done.

1) You misspelled kindergartner

2) You just insulted him, unless you know for a fact he is in kindergarten, which make him pretty educated if that is the case (it is pretty disturbing you are tracking his bathroom habits though)

Bring back my games or re-format dashboard to be more customizable, allowing us to elect what we want to see on the dashboard, too much going on in dashboard and nice to see just 'my games' when coming in to check on game status. That is my two cents.

depending on web browser, you could try an element-blocking extension... something like https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/elemhidehelper/

Can you please put back the my games tab and open games tab. It was way more user friendly. Not sure why you would change things to make it harder to use. I thought that was something only windows did.

Of the 120+ posts, only 30 separate people have actually voiced discontent over this update, while 20 or more have voiced how it's fine and they liked the dashboard anywyas.

I tell You I read lots of sad and pissed off people on chats in games since yesterday. Many people hate lack of Open Games and My Games.

And those 20 positive voices were on other features mostly, cause if somebody use dashboard normally, he don't care of lack of Open/My. It's lack of empathy for them not to care about other players and same for Fizzer.

You like dashboard so You don't care that hundreds of players hate it? That's so great of You.

Only some percent of people came her to show their disrespect for taking away something from them. Some don't even know that forum exist.

Fizzer, I advice You to check stats of site and new players after this change (Open/My as there rest seems to be fine). Check how much lower it went and if You want more people to come to Warlight, seems you did the opposite. Good idea would be also to make some survey on who want My/Open games back.

And really it's hard for me to imagine new players into Warlight, which have to get through dashboard to play a game. I think You will get less new players after forcing people to use dashboard.

And more to it, I personally hate when somebody forces me to do something and this actions seems like that. I will play probably till the link to Open Games will work, but probably less as it's inconvenient and pissing off.

DEATH TO FIZZER! JK.

But Fizzer, can you please just put more ads on the MY Games and Open Games tabs and bring them back? I loved them so much better and people joined games much quicker when they were up. I don't mind ads if you need the money, I just loved the previous interface and its better functionality.

Just like Wiseguy, I am concerned for the new(er) players who don't know much of WarLight yet.
Those will probably starting dropping off soon.

I also think many players will be booted in all games for the times to come.
And when the "My Games" and "Open Games" links no longer work, more players quit WarLight.

Expected population deminishmend: 30%-40%.
Only the people that really like the game will stay, players who just play for fun will probaby start looking for another game to play.

I'm the only one in my clan who has commented on this forum, but everyone else has stated repeatedly that they despise the new update. If you need confirmation, that's 20 more people who hate it.

The sad part is that this is actually a pretty decent update that improved on Warlight if you hadn't removed the tabs.

Please enlighten me as I have not used the My Games tab in a long time.

Explain the exact functionality that is missing in the dashboard. I get the dashboard has some stuff you don't like (not organized as most would like). But let's focus here in the real issue...what are you missing in the dashboard that you once had?

the dashboard doesnt function the same way the games do, so it takes longer to load from one thign to the other

What I like about the Dashboard:
The ability to right click on a game and load it in a new tab.
The ability to see the boot time and other settings.
The ability to load the page on a mobile device.

What I liked about the My Games/Open Games Tabs:
Being able to go back and forth between games and the list of games without needing to reload the page.
Not needing to refresh the page to refresh the games
Focus/Lack of clutter (I only see what I want to see at that moment)



What I'd like to see in the future:
The Open Games tab re-implemented with JavaScript/jQuery, so that I can refresh the open games without reloading the page.
Changes to the back end functionality that allow the Flash game to remain open, but be hidden when a person navigates from a game back to the Open Games tab. When a new open game is selected, the javascript would show the hidden flash div and update it with the selected game.
The My Games/Dashboard tabs to be implemented with JavaScript/jQuery, in a similar fashion.

Does Fizzer plan to move the game itself away from Flash, or just everything else?

So this is a speed issue only?

If I click on a game in dashboard, then hit BACK, it has the game list basically instantly (though it does not update the list with whatever you may have done like read chat, commit orders).

If I hit the multiplayer tab again, it takes a second to load everything. I have about 20 games going. How long is it taking for you?

If new updates regarding My Games and Open Games are not to be restabilished i will simply remove myself from playing and go to other games instead of this one.

As me i see most of ppl will do the same.

This was a non-update since most ppl despise it.

HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just keep it how it was!!!!!!
Too much information at one place (dashboard) - and that not even entirely.
No fun playling like this (except from phone)
0 points from 1.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

With 13 games it takes 2-3 seconds to load the dashboard. I miss the My Games tab, but this change isn't a deal breaker for me (not even close).

Bye Wrath and those 3 other players (won't be a lot more) that are going to stop playing because of this update, you will not be missed <3, 20 people screaming that everyone despises it isn't a majority of the players (the rest likes it or simply doesn't dislike it enough to start whining about it). I think that you can reach a lot more with suggestions on how to improve it than whining tbh

We'll see if u say the same when the game fade away. Cause it sure won't survive heading this way against players will.

Apart from that, yes, it will be my last day playing Warlight if it keeps the way it is.

It just sucks atm.
