Backgammon v2 - coming soon !

[SilverRobot]

Is this planned to replace the existing single-game implementation on the site?

[pedrored2021]

I have played various match and it seems to work very well.
When do you think it will be in beta? Christmas?

Very excited by the prospect of an improved Backgammon. +1 for the ability to play both single-game and multi-game matches.

Interesting, i'll try it as soon as it will be available on beta.

wow amazing. Best regards! it was sorely lacking and finally arose.
What type of games will be played in arena mode? (1 point game or matches?)

Suggestions:
1. make the faster animation of checkers movement.
2. make forced checkers moves automatic.
3. try to fix time management: i think 2 minutes is too much for a one move.

I can already see people complaining that the dice roll algorithm hasn't changed.

[Sunshine-Mimosa]

The dice as-is are simply not random. It is impossible.

For example here: https://backgammongalaxy.com/
Or in live play it is typically win one, lose one etc.

On BGA it is either a 15-game winning or losing streak.

Nobody can tell me otherwise.

When you have win-one-lose-one, someone has meddled with the randomness, because randomness has no memory. When it's truly random you usually see a mix of many different length of streaks. While you see short streaks more often, you definitely won't have a smooth/even up-and-down pattern. Long streaks in general happen more often than you would think by intuition.
