    Very shortly we will be releasing an updated interface for the homepage in each of the games. The goal here is to reduce some of the clutter of the old homepage and to also better expose some upcoming events in our games or to notify players when they can take action on events that are currently running.

    This page is highly customizable and all of the banners can be hidden if you would like. Here is an example of what it will look like if every single modal is open (again, this can be hidden if you prefer):

    [​IMG]

    The "event carousel" will rotate to let you know when the nearest event will take place (BA, Wars or the Raid). This change was primarily an effort by our User Interface designers to consolidate all of the banners and notifications that already existed on the home page into one smaller area as when there were a lot of elements on the home page it could get rather stretched. Some of the old sidebar icons such as gifts and boosts are gone, but given enough feedback we can adjust the new home page to include those again.

    This was a very development-light update as most of the time on this came from our UI designers. All of the suggestions/ideas/feedback you've given to me over the past while are still on track. I know that change, especially abrupt change, can make someone a little apprehensive, but take some time to get used to the new look of the home page. As mentioned above we can adjust it fairly easily based on feedback. :)

    Looks OK to me, have you refreshed yet? There may be a conflict in your browser displaying the new interface.

    I like it - you have the ability to hide if you don't - gives it a fresh look - good job!! ;)

    When I hit the Home page, I go there to do the business of the challenges, bosses, adventures found on the lower right area of the screen. And, I flit back & forth between Home page & other pages. Activities didn't get in the way so much when they were posted on the side of the page. Now I have to either keep the Activities closed, or skim down every time I hit Home page, to get to the important stuff.

    The buttons on the home page for using/buying keys or signing up for the BA or Wars aren't transactional, they just take you to the area where you can perform that action, so you won't accidentally purchase a Key by clicking on the home page.

    in the box below DAILY REWARD there is quite unnecessary things there can be placed timers ( reminders) in the form of digital watches so it will not take up much space over SOCIAL FEED as currently conceived to be!The way that is conceived loaded very much the display thus obtaining unnecessary clicks on those keys!

    Offers show up in the same space they normally do; that is the window with the Limited items and Crates.
