Unless there’s a way to easily see all cards that have been played in Turn-based, I still won’t be going back to this.

It can already take a considerable amount of time to find a Hearts game during certain times of day (late at night by U.S. Mountain Time Zone for instance or any time on Friday). Adding more options just makes finding a game harder.
I agree. I hope they keep the existing game as is in addition if thus version is implemented. This is the only game I play in BGA.

If any changes were to be made they should be in the scoring and maybe the option of adding points to your score after a moonshot.

What a horrible update.

- the interface is slow
- the 2 of clubs is played automatically
- cards which you can play are highlighted, annoying
- autoplay the last cards, annoying
- etc. etc. etc.

Please please please rollback the old version.

'The interface is slow' (due to added '0.1s' delay to prevent an animation bug), but 'I don't want features which make the game faster'.
What is your point? Please address your suggestion precisely through BGA report system if you have one.

Did you play with the new interface? Everybody complains in the chat.

I love updates when they improve the game, but for hearts it isn't an improvement.

Yes, I'm monitoring the comments and reports, and reverted some changes according to them.
In contrast yours do not provide constructive ideas.
