  • What features are missing? I get that you can't use them because it's locked to free edition right now, but they are going to be ready for testing in the last week. We're confident at the end of the beta everything will be working great and we'll be comfortable to start selling it.

  • > What's been released as the C3 "beta" is very obviously an alpha. And that's fine, but mislabeling it (not to mention putting such a hard limit on accessible features) means that, even for just messing about with it, it's not entirely worth the effort right now. Hopefully we see an actual beta in the near future, prior to the release of the commercial version. Right now it feels very...meh. I'm not excited by C2 in a browser in the slightest, especially since right now it seems to be more an inconvenience than an upgrade. I guess we'll see what happens!

    >

    I mean Alpha/Beta are all fuzzy terms. We did run a private alpha before the beta. We're happy to call it a beta. Expect rapid improvements.

  • Construct.net team page more up to date

  • Yep

  • No, we've thought of it all. https://editor.construct.net will always load the most recent version, no cache clearing required.

  • Thanks for your suggestion, I'm afraid it's not a model we think would work.

  • Excellent post, and be assured it will be looked at by the rest of the team.

  • [quote:3ds896qa]Other than that from the glimpse of it so far I can only say why just Chrome? I use Opera and Firefox and it does not operate on either of these. Also I updated Chrome on my phone but this only goes to version 56 so I could not run it on that either

    Thanks for the feedback! Chrome only for now as it's the only browser that supports all the advanced features we're using (nearly) out the box. If you load it in FF or Opera, it will show you what specific features the browser is missing exactly.

    We don't see any reason why other browsers wont be able to support it in the future. Hopefully not too distant!

  • [quote:3tvxw3nj] I like the new layout and design.

    Paulo's done an excellent job of it!

    [quote:3tvxw3nj]The sub-menus have a strange feeling with so much empty space between the options (I'm talking about hovering over them and seeing their white background). It gives a "work in progress" feeling for me.

    I didn't spend as much time implementing the finer details of Paulo's design as I'm sure he would of liked me to, there is a lot of touching up to do. It will improve.

    [quote:3tvxw3nj]The server is down quite frequently. I guess that's understandable now, but still.

    Seems fine to me so far, but you're not the only one reporting. Can you give more details? Is it the 521 error?

    [quote:3tvxw3nj]

    Good catch, fixed for next upload.

    [quote:3tvxw3nj]On this page: https://www.construct.net/hu/make-games/new-features-1 the sentence "You can also see lists of" ends suddenly, missing it's final words.

    Good catch again, fixed for next upload.

    [quote:3tvxw3nj]On this page (and several others): https://www.construct.net/hu/make-games/showcase at the bottom it sais: "..then buy it to unlock all the powerful features". I think it would be better as: "..or buy it to unlock all the powerful features". The current sentence feels like it's forcing users to buy the product.

    Yeah it's just marketing speak, it all needs going over carefully. Not changing for now, but may change a lot in coming weeks.

    Thanks for all the website feedback, it's much appreciated!

  • I get what you're saying, but the reason it's tied down to free edition is because dealing with the bugs is 100x easier.

    Our #1 goal here in the beta is not to give free access to the product so people can get an appetite for it, it's to make the best product we can. We always try and make the best quality stuff we can and this is part of the process we need to go through to arrive there.

    I see the argument for finding more bugs by making it more of an attractive free offering but it's not a problem we anticipate having, we'll be plenty busy over next several weeks

    Sorry for misunderstanding, obviously busy now trying to read everything!

  • Sebastien, thank you for your comments they are appreciated and I understand your point of view. It's is a radical change, and we know some people will not be comfortable with it (at least at first). Hopefully the desktop build will be more suited to you.
