News in the Port

[The_EURL_Guy]

Our editors explain how to use the new tab and why you need it.

Read it on the portal

I support it. With a slight clarification: that the event message be released at least a FEW HOURS BEFORE THIS EVENT BEGINS.
And not like it was with Braul in the current and recent patches: Braul has started, it’s on, but the message about it is published 10-12 hours after its start (((.

Read all the news on the game portal.

 

Undoubtedly, some work has been done.
Perhaps it was made with the aim that more players read the news and be aware of in-game events....

 

If more news posts were used in the Public Test, I wouldn't have to write about it now. And the facts are:
1. A very strange grouping of news - what is recommended for me, what is important. These selections are ABSOLUTELY contrary to my interests and preferences.
2. Unlike the previous implementation of this tab, "News" in the current state works very and very slowly - when using "scrolling" - the page "freezes", "thinks" for a very long time and only then, after quite a long time, shows information.. ..
As a result, personally, I prefer to read all the news on the portal, and not "inside the game" with the help of CEF.

 

Please return the "News" to its original place and in its original form.

 

This change was probably made "for the convenience of the players", but it has the opposite effect...
Those who read the news will read them, but perhaps not everyone will do it ....
Those who DID NOT READ THE NEWS - they will not read them, they probably "read" the news on YouTube, in video format ...

and we lose the Ranks shortcut in the port for this .... why could this not stay in the player menu where it was at least not that distracting ?

Well next time bring the explaining article before u insert something new . That would help.

The indication of a gift, in the news, on the UI is a good change - tooltip made it self-explanatory.

However the old, embedded Chromium, problems still persist with the news.

1. First time a page is loaded it rarely renders correctly.

1. Layout problems - current update page has the some of collapsible sections overlaid with each other.
   This bug also seems to prevent the button (for claiming the gift) to appear. I had to resort to using a regular browser, FireFox, to claim the 24h or prem.

1. Slow - scrolling around a news article stutters

ainsssssssss

Looking forward to an option or mod to turn it off. I always read the news via my mobile browser. No need to read them over again.

 

And no, a white 'News 1' is very annoying. I rather have it removed.

It's that.

Hovering the mouse pointer over the gold notification icon gives a description of what it is indicating.
