N4G Update: Submission View Update

Hello everyone and Merry Monday, the most popular of days.

Today the developers have pushed an update to N4G that will affect submission viewing. With this update you will now notice that upon scrolling to the end of the comments of a submissions it will have automatically displayed a related submission and its comments section. It will show up to four additional submissions in a row before it ends this process.

The goal of this update is to help you see related submissions to the one you are reading without having to otherwise find them yourself.

If you have questions or experience issues with this update, please submit a ticket via https://n4g.com/tickets/

Thank you,
The BGFG Team

This looks bad. Not the idea itself, but the fact that there's no additional separator between currently viewing submission and related ones. They're cramped so close to each other.
And the fact that it loads and shows comments automatically, it gets kinda confusing when you're scrolling and seeing 5 or more comments sections. I bet it will lead to a lot of wrong responses or out-of-context responses.

Visual separation would've helped. Or even loading related news "collapsed" with title/platforms with a way to see it fully.

Like right now, i was responding not under this post, but under first related one and had to double-check before posting.
If this was a toggle or available in the settings, i would've disabled it immidiately. Just my 2c

A separator would be great, even if it just says "Related Articles" or "Other Articles You Might Be Interested In", just having it flow onwards like a social media post is disorientating because it shows the comments for all. Alternately, maybe have a "Expand Comment Section" for the other articles rather than auto loading them for us.

Definitely a separator would help. Maybe have it as a horizontal thick red bar?

Or have the other articles surrounded by a very very thin red border?

bunt-custardly972d ago

What you on about. The separator is the massive AD they placed between them. LOL.

monkey602973d ago

Yeah this is ugly guys!

At the least we could load comments separately. This is going to lead to some well trailed off discussions

Out of alllllllll the ideas they asked for….this is the one they chose to implement first?

Really?

Edit:

I’ve already faced issues, I’ve just went to write comments out in some articles, the writing has lagged heavily and before I could post it refreshed the page on my mobile where my comment was wiped. It’s happened 3 times now

Please. Get rid of it.

I actually would have preferred the 2FA first.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing18d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit18d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing18d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9218d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
