Board Game Arena

Today, BGA is launching a new game lobby.

When the old game lobby was created, there was not so many games on this website, and not so many players. But you are more and more and there are more and more games on this website, and obviously some games didn't manage to find their place in it. The thing is: we create this website in order all games can be played, and not only "best sellers". This is why we tried to answer this question: how to give you tools to find opponents for "rare" games, and continue to keep the game lobby efficient.

You can see today our solution: you can specify what games you want to play at the moment. Thus, we can show you corresponding tables first, we can tell the others that you are available for these games, and finally we can tell you how many opponents are available and who they are so you can suggest them to join your table. Don't hesitate to change your "games you want to play" each time you connect on BGA

Finally, we introduced a "game recommendation" feature, to suggest you a game that you don't know yet. This game is played by players that are playing the same games than you... that's why we're pretty sure you'll love it

It sucks I cannot find quick start of game i played.

It's very good.

It is easier to create games, besides being able to see that players want to play my game.

It sucks, now have to go thru an initial screen of game recommendation - can this be turned off? and starting a new game is to slow, have to trawl down to another page.
Maybe you get set up a poll of what players think about the new interface?

@hermilion: as soon as your game is listed in your "games I want to play now", you can start a game in just one click by clicking on the game box.

@3Green: Isorry but I don't understand your remark: there is no additional page to create new games, and there is no screen of game recommendation (only a small line).

Cheers,

Great work! I like it a lot.

great improvement guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
