Option for old play now page.

Post by Octothorpe »

I've really given it a chance, but I liked the old 'Play Now' page so much better. When you'd click to see all games, it was easy to see your ranking stats for all of the games and you could open multiple lobbies from the same screen to wait for one to fill.

I suppose I could "favorite" all of the games... but I'd prefer to save those for the ones under 100 ELO that I'm working on.

Anyhow, an old.boardgamearena.com in the same vein as the old Reddit option would be nice.

Thanks!

You can still use the old Play Now page. In fact, I *only* use the old Play Now page to start games and still queue for multiple games at one time.

Yes, but some of the old functionality is worse now. You used to be able to open up the full list of games in the old style, now that bring you to the new games page, which displays less info.

I don't want to have to 'favorite' every game to restore this functionality.

The "other games you know" section is okay, but seriously truncated from the previous version.
