The Game tab still has not been updated in months. A quick way to update it for new players is to simply link each new Dev blog and interview to the end of the appropriate section.

Just a little suggestion that would make it easier, especially for newer players, to find the core issues.

Thanks

If you look at the main page of the site (just plain old http://mwomercs.com or click the Home link), there are many links to important sections like Developer Blogs, Developer Interviews, Announcements, etc. They are down below the Facebook feed. It's the first page, so everyone from people who have never heard of BT/MW to veterans should see the info there.

I think there should be a link to the corresponding DevBlog and Q&A for each of the sections in the "Game" tab (i.e. Information Warfare, Community Warfare, etc.). That's why the tab exists - to inform gamers about the game.

Exactly Prosperity, Thanks. There is curently a link to DEV Blog 0, but none of the others. Yes Durrant, everything is available if you scroll far enough down, but studies show (and all the double, triple posts with the same questions prove) that if someone doesn't find the answer they are looking for in approx the top screen and a half of a webpage they move on. Just saying that for new people to be able to find out about all the Game....the "game" tab should be a great place to start, not months out of date.

Judging by the crap posts we keep getting in the General Discussion area, they don't even bother reading the top half of the screen any more (that nice New Players Start Here (Pretty Please!) post, for instance ... or use the search function, etc. That won't change even if they added all the info to the Game link.

I guess maybe the devs consider that page independent of the other stuff that's happening. None of the info on the page is actually out of date, it just doesn't have links to the newest dev blogs and Q&As and such -- but that's not what that page is about. It's about the four building blocks of the game, which haven't changed.

I guess I just don't see that anything needs to be changed, or maybe it's that changing the page wouldn't do anything beneficial for those people who need to be spoon-fed everything because they can't be bothered to actually look for it.
