Community Site - Feedback

[Xzanron]

Where is feedback for this "beta" site supposed to go anyway? Let's hope my post here doesn't just get lost.

I like the beta site and I like the direction FD are trying to go with it.

The main points I'd like to make are:

1. Where are the RSS feeds? I'd like one for the whole site, but maybe also for things like Dev Notes and Patch Notes.
2. Not much seems to be happening there, but maybe that's because everyone is at or recovering from E3
3. The link to the forums should be more obvious, as that's still really the main community area
4. It's really unclear that the orange blob is a menu, I only found it by accident.

Good thread!
I remember reading something about "be my wing" for the community website. Does anyone knows what it would be about?

According to the banner at the top the Forum Support and Feedback section is also now for Website feedback (perhaps a rename is in order?). I guess this is because Brett C is handling both.

EDIT: also as per Newsletter 78 they want feedback sent to community@frontier.co.uk

1. Where are the RSS feeds? I'd like one for the whole site, but maybe also for things like Dev Notes and Patch Notes.

There appear to be 4 seperate feeds. Shame there is no "global" feed.

3. The link to the forums should be more obvious, as that's still really the main community area

Brett C mentioned earlier that they are thinking of splitting the ED forums (and the Planet Coaster forums) away from the Frontier site so maybe no point changing anything until that happens (perhaps the ED forums with either tack on to the community site or have its own domain).
