NexBeth

I think Nexus asking for feedback is interpreted by some users who dislike the change as an invitation to participate in recreating it. But really, feedback is more a request for input to help troubleshoot, not change, a newly designed website that was in beta.

I believe that would be the next step in this and account for the work they've put into making the site very smartphone friendly.

I've heard Search opens a new page a lot from commentators, but I don't see that at all. Search opens a large menu in front of the page you were on. You don't lose the page you were on by opening Search. You can do the search and when done, close it, press ESC or just click on the page you were on and you are back to where you were. A list of search results is an individual preference. I prefer the search with pics rather than a list. I agree the formatting of the forums into 3 columns resulting in only 1/3 of the forum space available for active communications (the intention of forums) is not good for pc users. Yes, wish there was a better solution that didn't lean in favor of smartphone compatibility. This has been argued to death pretty much; doesn't seem likely to change. Perhaps Nexus is preparing for the time when smartphones will be the dominate medium for NexusMods.

I'm starting to feel the same way. It is like I'm seeing one thing, but others are seeing entirely different things. The front game pages are covered with access to mods and rows and rows of more mods. There are things I don't like about the site either. Like everything to the right of a forum discussion taking up a 3rd of the page and to left avatars taking up 20% space. It is a waste of forum discussion space for what I think is unimportant clutter. But it is a better format for phones. And Nexus made the decision to keep it. That was hugely discussed during the Beta and apparently reverting back to the classic style is a no-go for Nexus. I prefer a light background. Also discussed during Beta. There was a change made to make the reading/writing areas less black, but I still don't get to have what I personally want-a light background. I guess what I'm saying is the Beta is over and if you want to just vent here, ok. But you're late to the discussion if you think these changes that have already been mulled over during the Beta is going to now effect change. At this point, it is probably just down to reporting bugs and problem areas if you still want to take part in fixing broken things on the new website. Just my 2cents.

Nexus is about modding, which includes videos and pictures about mods, and mod collections for those who don't want to do their own load order; it's about mods and provides a medium of communication within the community. The site can't possibly cater to each individual's wants who signs up here. I've been here 10 yrs, and it has never just been a download site for mods--thankfully.

Trying to figure that out too. Maybe the extra step is having to click on close to get out of the search page?

HadToRegister, I haven't tracked anybody's participation in the Beta, including you. I was responding more generally to people who are after-the-fact posting some pretty scathing complaints in what is now a closed Beta, acknowledging that they didn't participate in the Beta. What's the point, other than venting? Heck, maybe Nexus is still reading and considering; maybe not. Plenty of opportunity for everyone to get their feedback in was given though.

Lots of people with expansive critiques were involved in the BETA and Nexus was responsive to many complaints. Don't think there was much fake "LOVE IT" feedback. There was a good deal of feedback from many users. The Beta was quite obviously visible for many months to everyone who signed into Nexus. If you choose not to participate and get your concerns in, that's not really Nexus's fault.

There is legitimacy to the color-coded mod pages for browsing purposes (at least for the highest trafficked games). Users may have multiple mod pages up browsing and a game-assigned color helps to streamline the process of multi-tasked browsing. It's possible, however, that the new webpage doesn't allow for this. Or that it's impractical to main all the various color schemes.

Custom time range for mod searches appears to be removed. Now there is only ALL, 24. 7. 14, 28, 1YR. There used to also be a range that the user could input their desired time range.

Ok, I see problem now. If you use descriptions for your results, the search results are different. For instance, in classic version if your search word is CRAFT in the description name, it pulls up all mods with CRAFT in the description name. In the beta, not sure what criteria it is using to conduct the search, but the results are that CRAFT is not in the file description name.

"Trending Mods" is right at the top of the game mod pages.

Are they finished working on it? Shouldn't these types of topics and the Feedback board be closed down then if the work is done? I don't know anything about web design and what is and isn't possible, but I don't see complaining about too much empty space 20x a day in feedback topics productive, particularly when questioning why does Nexus give consideration to smartphones. I'm pretty sure they've seen the complaint enough times to have it drilled into their brains forevermore by now. A lot of feedback from members here have been implement.

Except that some are satisfied with the way it turned out. And oh yes, Nexus has made appeasement modifications in the way the website looks based on our feedback. Yes, not everything is liked, and I may have made other choices here and there, but "winning-out", in my view, shouldn't be the motivating factor. The website is going to be designed for multiple platforms and some accommodations have to be made for that. It's 2025, not 2000. Most gamers have smartphones and do use them for gaming related activities. A helpful way to look at it would be what is the best overall look that can be accomplished based on the fact that varying needs (and not just what I want) must be considered.

Exactly, and that is why everyone shouldn't go on and on about this issue beating it to death. Nexus is going to make accommodations for phone usage. Nexus is no longer just a pc website. The site looks so much better on phone now, compared to a few yrs ago when it was barely tolerable on the phone. Nexus obviously wants as many mediums as possible. This is a business after all.
