New giveaways interface feedbacks

[Zoliv]

Hello,

This looks good, better than before, but here are some suggestions :

* Infinite scrolling would be nice
* Being linked to your Steam account should allow you to say wether you want to see the gamed you already have or not in an option
* It would be nice to be able to click on a Steam link to see what the game is about (directly in the giveaway list, not only in the giveaway alone)
* Being able to put games in a unwanted list and not see them anymore. List could be editable.
* And most of all, have our Indiegala Silvers visible in the page

Thanks !

Also : it would be good to have a level 0 only choice in the level filter.

Full page redesign and it offers no new functionality. One wonders why even bother?

This would have been a great time to implement new features, and new filters.

Maybe they are, and they just delivered the new design part only yet. We'll see.

I think the level filter should always be set to the current level and lower.
I like that it's not a toggle now (Ascending / Descending), but I think only listing the everything at that level or lower makes more sense for the giveaways.

Nice, they broke IGhelper again. And now I have to wade through the giveaways of 6+ thousand games that were on the blacklist. Is it really so difficult to add the ability to blacklist the giveaways of certain games? And the fact that the giveaways of the games that I already have on my Steam account are not automatically hidden - it’s generally very stupid.

And yes, infinite scroll is needed too.

Level filter: not only 1,2,3, e.t.c. Maybe I want to see from 2 and above? Why not? I think that it's not bad option.
Hide giveaways: Sometimes we don't want to see some cheep trash and button "hide game" will be nice.
Ban: Now I can't see this option in my or other profiles. Maybe we can do it directly on giveaways, when we can see creator and his stats? (Blocking/unblocking button?)
------
Maybe community can mark "unfair"giveaways or if this game free now -we don't need to write posts about it and just click the button. When it got certain percentage (50% of community votes, for example) - everyone will see this warnings and there will not any points for creator.

missing filter for level 0 (it works only if you edit the search bar)
how do we know how many IS points we have now? can't seem to find the information.

its looking fucking shit and its overloaded

 

[GoldenOracleDemon]

- can't see GalaSilver like before till i click on my library and check wallet
- when i click on a giveaway that is more level than mine i can't click on another giveaway for like 10secound
- can't filter level 0
- doesn't show that i picked the giveaway ticket when i refresh page

Does anyone know how to hide the games I already own? I can't see any button like before.

Overloaded design. For example, try to look at steamgifts : it looks much better and easier to see and compare information between giveaways. Even old IG design was easier to read.

 

[GoldenImpLeprechauns]

Looks like another case of people having to justify their position in a workplace, no offence of course but compared to 3 months ago, this is missing:

-Ability to immediately check your credits
-impossible to filter games that you do already own on steam
-harder to read and generally bloated and slower

Things I do like compared to the previous giveaway section.

1. Seems a bit brighter and more colourful to look at.
2. I like the highlights bar showing the main giveaways at the top and is better than the previous iteration.
3. I like the fact when you don't have enough points the box to join grey's out so you cannot enter it.

Things to work on/fix in my opinion:

1. The ability to see how many coins you have left needs to be visible on the same screen rather than have an extra tab/window to do this.
2. The extra odds giveaways no longer displays the number of tickets you've bought.
3. Some giveaways still show the ability to join even though I have already joined them. (This maybe an issue with giveaways joined before the changeover as it does seem to be ok with ones I've joined today).
4. Maybe I was unlucky, but I picked a few random profiles to check from within the giveaway page but I could not go into anybody's profile to check their status on IG.
5. More options/filters as people have above mentionned including ability to hide games owned on steam, show games you can enter for dependant on the level you are.
6. Option to be able to choose how many tickets you want to buy for extra odds giveaways or spending all remaining points on those giveaways rather than individually clicking on each ticket would be nice.
7. Infinite scrolling like others have said would be nice but its not a deal breaker for me.

Overall, i hope it is a work in progress as apart from a fresh coat of paint, it appears not much has really changed. I hope this is taken as constructive criticism as i genuinely want to see an improved site which makes it easier for people to use. Looking forward to some fresh changes to improve the user experience. I will update the list with more changes once i have used the site a bit more.

Btw, each time opening giveaway in separate tab to go to the game's Steam page is also not very convenient

 

[GrayFigmentOverwhelm]

New design - but where are the benefits?

- the buttons to folder forward/backwards are to small - please make them bigger [easyer clickable]
- lost chance to avoid games i already own (old design better)
- where can i see my left silver coins now
- button to see the game on steam to small - please make this button bigger [easyer clickable]

Can't select level 0 in the level selection menu.
Can't see GalaSilver like before.

 

[SilverImaginaryDetect]

I don´t like it. Old system was better, now I cannot see the who is offering the giveaway until I check every game one by one!

It would be GREAT if you can check all the giveaways from one specific user.

 

[Bestacinza]

perfect now. Thanks.

Hi all.

We released new layout this week as you noticed ;-)

Few things were still to be rounded and we added it today.

- now you can see your credit balance in the profile info dropdown menu at top of the page ( not just in the giveaways page but in the whole website where new layout is in place)
- the visualization bug for extra odds have been fixed.
- now level 0 filter is present as well.

For the rest should be pretty much the same to the old layout with the improvement that now it should be much more functional from mobile/non standard screens.
That said we will of course carefully take into account your feedback ( as well as we do with the whole indiegala.com portal every day )
We have some ucoming new giveaways coming ( poker!?! anyone ? ) and we have plenty of ideas to make things even more fun in the upcoming months!
