GT's forums look unprofessional now. The colors here are nice.

Why am I up this early? I went to bed at 4:30 in the morning because of that update. Now it's 8:30

NiGHTS new skin makes GT look awesome. I love the new site, though.

New GT sucks so much. I haven't noticed any actual improvements, apart from maybe the fact that the forums will be less likely to break. But there already are things that are broken. The frontpage is broken, you can't view any past videos for some reason. The search seems to be broken, I searched for 'amazing spiderman' and all it came up with were videos for past spiderman games. The forum colourscheme is atrocious, before there was a lovely and clear distinction between posts, now it's all just white. All the videos seem to be locked into HD rather than having an SD option, meaning that all of them now take some time to buffer. Many of them aren't even playing for me.

...They just implemented the site. I don't know how much you know about websites and programming and all that stuff but that's completely normal.

I switched to that theme immediately. So much nicer.

So I haven't found anything that resembles a blog so-far, is that function completely gone?

Sure, ok. But what about there being no actual improvements?

Well they are utterly amazing both live and in the studio, but first you should, you know, find out if you actually like them? Would you seriously buy tickets to a gig for a band you've never listened to before, and hope for the best?

If you don't know where to begin, try these

Obviously I haven't heard it, but the fact that it's the official Olympics song (or something) tells me that I'm probably gonna get sick of it real quick

What kind of improvements were you expecting? Unless you're talking about design improvements (making navigation easier and all that stuff) it was pretty clear from the start that in terms of features there would be little to no improvements at all. It's just completely restructured to make the site and forums easier to maintain for the staff.

Dat Meet the Pyro, oh god, ahhahahahahaha

Also, can anyone link me to Muse's new song?

it'll probably be available in the next hour, it was just played on the radio

Just watched Meet the Pyro 3 times.
My lungs hurt...definitely the best one they've done.

by **RockHardRetard** » June 27th, 2012, 1:09 pm

Meet the Pyro was just perfection!

I really don't like the new forum design. it looks terrible

by **Entity** » June 27th, 2012, 4:49 pm

New GT is horrible. I don't want to use it. Don't make me use it.

Can't even log in to my WalkingContradiction account.
