CC's new look

Melkor52 · Post by **Melkor52** » Sun Jun 22, 2014 12:16 am

I got to say that the latest changes to the site are not something that I like. Not horrible mind you, but the new look just doesn't sit well with me. And what is all this Facebook crap? Are they not tracking our internet movements enough without CC helping them? I'm just saying.

Not a fan.

Its not only ugly its awkward

Why change something thats not broken. Its actually insulting as if I dont know what color I am or that I need to drop or fort or end turn. Its clunky and just plain awful please change it back

I can't use clickies at all. GET RID OF THIS. I hate this. Go back.

I only played 2 turns, but in chrome it seemed to run smoother and quicker, Im sure it wont take much to get used to.

The maps now flash when you refresh and it's super annoying.

I cannot take my turns
I click on the BEGIN button and nothing happens

Another issue that just started within the last 1/2 hour
The Map image does not show up
In order to get the Map Image to appear ...
I have to click on Map Size link

If you need screenshots - I will take some

Agreed I hate it please change it back or at least give us the option to have it the old way

I cannot see maps at all. I have no options as well as no map. Even if I turn on panels I can't get it to work. I'm a fan of simple. I don't use Bob, panels or anything else...just the standard set-up. If anyone knows how I can see the maps again ,please let me know.

Sorry for the lack of clarity. I was hopping back in here to edit my post and indicate that I do have the "map size" option, and that does work to get the map up.

I cannot post in chat. I type it in, but when I hit enter, the screen flashes and appears to refresh as opposed to posting my chat. I am using internet explorer (on this computer) without panels and no add-ons. It does work on my other computer if I am using chrome.

thanks for the help, and any suggestions on how to post comments for my teammates.

I have the same issue; hitting 'map size' brings up the map, but you cant actually play

hitting 'begin' for the turn just reloads the page and the map disappears again

I'm running win7 and the latest version of chrome - I have had the same issue with InternetExplorer too (just to see if it was the browser), I was able to take one turn in that one before it stopped working

Hey Conquer Club... I got a great idea, STOP FIXING THINGS THAT ARE NOT BROKEN!

All you guys do is mess around with stuff and break other add ons... sooooo annoying.

Lokisgal hit the nail "Why change something thats not broken". It's not the first time. Seems to be new CC policy. "Change is good". No matter how much worse it actually gets. Yes, people get used to things, but not everybody has the time nor the interest to keep relearning everything time and time again. Nor is it fun to loose a game because of changed rules or misclick caused by ever changing page layout, not to mention all the other problems people seem to have. I'm sorry I just renewed my subscription.

Game interface.

You have to play some games...

multiple bots in a game is a nice change. though my one game was no challenge at all. their play together was exponentially worse than individually.

The New Look is Great, that's if you are a three year old..... Thanks CC for tinkering with something that didn't need it.

my clickable maps has gone, is there one i can use on firefox?

dougal4chaos · Post by **dougal4chaos** » Sun Jun 22, 2014 4:10 am

I cant play with the new update.

I use firefox and when i click begin game nothing happens. there is no map either.

Like others i can click change map size and then see a map but still cant play on it.

I tested IE and i can play with IE but please dont make me use a security risk product like IE or chrome to play this game,
i would rather have my money back than take the risk of using IE or chrome.

also i dont need to be told what colour i am, Im not stupid and it really wasnt hard to know before. the new ui seems cluncky and the old version was much more appealing.

I'm running firefox and although I have some issues with the new interface, on the whole it works.

If you have a major malfunction like no map showing, clear your cache and try it again.

I cleared cache, restarted firefox and it has made no difference, still no map and begin game button does nothing

I also cant play in IE anymore, i played one game in IE, clicked next game and had no map,and begin game button dosnt work

ok i have to restart IE after every game for the map to reshow

laughingcavalier · Post by **laughingcavalier** » Sun Jun 22, 2014 5:41 am

I like the new clearer signposting. Much easier to see what colour I am for example? Generally a much better look is my first impression. I'm hitting a few snags getting round - I'm not yet clear if that's my fault or bugs. I've been getting frustrated with how different the user experience is across the 4 different devices I play on, maybe this will make it easier. I'm willing to give this a fair try, hope everyone else is.
PS getting the map full screen without any annoying text-y distractions in panel mode on the iPad is great.

i just did and i have to say it's great. the floating menu is awesome, especially if you play on a small display using a large map. i can scroll wherever i want and the menu just follows me. also telling me what player i am and colour coding all that stuff is perfect for poly games (cause i'm a noob that never played that kind of game before).

jghost7 · Post by **jghost7** » Sun Jun 22, 2014 6:52 am

I dont know how it is for the mobile devices, but for the average computer user, I would have to give it a 0. It would help to be able to take turns without having to use multiple browsers. This should have been more thoroughly tested before being released. In addition to not being able to take turns, the map doesn't show, you have to redo any setting you pick(ie color codes) for every turn, and I am sure to find more once I find a way to take a turn(hopefully before I miss one). Considering the times they initiated these changes(there were more than one, i saw some before I slept, and saw more when i woke), and the lack of responses to the reported problems, I would have to say that this was poorly planned. These were some pretty big overhauls with some major impacts on how we play this game. CC should have had a plan to observe and address the issues that were bound to occur with such a major change. One can only hope that CC will do the right things in addressing the resulting consequences from this, but history does not support such hope.

Thanks,

J
