We are getting monthly engine updates and site changes. I think that the userbase is actually growing, albeit slowly (I don't have the actual numbers, but I've noticed a bit more activity here than in '09 / '10). The reason, and I know you know it too, is that the site went down for nearly a year which caused the bulk of people who weren't absolutely die-hard about this game to fly the coup. I would attribute the stagnant userbase to lack of advertising and perhaps a bit on not being new user friendly, on the game side and the community side (which I'll assume the rest of your thread addresses). I also think it's kinda funny that you base all this crap on tokens when you could just as easily check levelranks and find Trip to the Moon at rank 224K.

any validity that you wanted to bring to your point has been thrown out the window. |

Re: FFR: The New User Perspective And New FFR Ideas
If you actually read the content, maybe you'd realize that all of the head lines are intentionally a joke. You're not even criticizing the content of my post, you're criticizing the formatting. Which was supposed to be moderately amusing anyway.

Re: FFR: The New User Perspective And New FFR Ideas
And now for the piece-by-piece breakdown.
Quote:
The site has switched administrations a couple times in recent past, but I really like the way it's going now. I have been able to suggest ideas and the good ones have been implemented. Please do not insult our developers with statements like "I, someone who only knows the bare minimum, could probably figure out how to [do it]." Simply list out what changes you would like to see made (and it looks like you've done some of that here in this thread) and bring it to the attention of a dev and it can be discussed with the team.

Quote:
As far as not knowing what AAAs/Tier Points/FCs are, I'm not sure that a brand new player needs to know what these are right off the bat. It's only after you have experienced the game a bit that you strive for such goals, and if you encounter the green "FC" text and don't what it means, the resources are certainly available to find that information. P.S. The Official Picture Dictionary is comprehensive, not just "a start". The thread could use a bit of an overhaul though thanks for reminding me. Quote:
Tier Points - No Leaderboards - Yes Tokens/Skill Tokens - Probably We were actually thinking about implementing a Level 0 tutorial song in Dance that is a rundown of how the game works with an introduction to tokens by being awarded one upon completion. That project has been put on the back burner, but is definitely something I would like to see implemented in the sooner-rather-than-later future. Quote:

if you're going to propose something, expect criticism - if you can't, don't suggest it unless it's polished enough to where it's reasonably difficult to do so EDIT #2: actually i'll bring this part of the post back too: it feels like to me that you don't even care about the rest of things and this all just seems like a push to add your token designs, sorry but not sorry Last edited by TC_Halogen; 06-28-2016 at 10:26 AM.. |

Re: FFR: The New User Perspective And New FFR Ideas

The second is the play button needing to be easier to find. I've recommended this game to well over 20 people and I've managed to keep a total of 0 of them playing for longer than a month. Navigation around the site and specific details that are known among the community but not really outsiders makes the game just flashing arrows and not really an interactive game with others. I'm not saying to overhaul the entire site, but something easy like changing the position of the play button would be great. |

When I read this thread, I remembered the old page layout with the banner (http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/.../WhatIsFFR.swf).
I'm not sure if it stopped showing when you register. |
