Feedback

The Hearthstone card backs section of the site hasn't been updated since May of this year. I don't mean to be pushy, but I'd like the images of the missing card backs for the wiki, and I'm not sure where else I can get them (other than making ugly cropped screenshots, which I really don't want to resort to).

I've noticed that some non-article things are shown on the main page, but not on the game specific sub-page. The Stormwind Launch Countdown aswell as the "81 Card revealed" and "Dreamhack Beyond" Banners are some current examples of this.

I would appreciate it if you could also add these und future things to the /hearthstone page since that's the page I actually bookmarked.

Hello everyone, I’m back with something that’s not a concept, but more of a request of a feature that could be used to possibly run a community driven tournament that takes place between the users here on outof.cards.

So before I get way ahead of myself here let’s back it up a bit. A few years ago Tempo Storm created a tool called the Sealed Deck Generator. What it does (well, did since it hasn’t been updated since Ashes of Outland) is gives you a number of packs from various sets to “open” and build decks with. No disenchanting or crafting, what you got is what you had to work with. It was simple to use and kind of fun just to see what you would get from this tool.

Now since Tempo Storm hasn’t updated it in over a year I think it would be pretty sweet if another fan site made a similar tool and kept it updated cough. Then that site could hold community tournaments with decks that were made using that tool.

I'm a bit hestitant to admit it, but I'm a filthy netdecker (and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one). Even if I'm repeating myself, outof.cards is the most awesome Hearthstone page on the web for me. Still, there are two things that are closely related to each other which I have to look for on other pages. So here are my suggestions how you could at least partially avoid that if you wanted to:

1) Top decks

Not sure how the algorythms work, but right now the "hot" and the "top" decks are showing almost the same results. You have that cooperation with HSReplay running, so why not use it some more? I suggest keeping the "hot" section as it is (I guess it's based on views, comments and upvotes?) and displaying the lists with the highest win rates from HSReplay in "top", updated daily at midnight or some such. Sometimes people are just looking for the best decks to grind the ladder with and right now, it's quite difficult to find them if there doesn't happen to be a post like this on the frontpage. It goes without saying that keeping the filters as they are would be vital if that is possible.

2) Meta Reports

This might be a little insolent, but I'd really appreciate it if there was a section where you point us to meta reports. Everybody has their favorites but I think we can agree about the top 3 or something. You could either post a short news article whenever a new one comes out or silently update a site where they are all displayed with a link to their respective external site. I know this would be pretty much advertizing third party content but since OOC understandably can't provide such reports themselves, why not make things for users a bit easier? While we're at it, a collection of podcasts would be pretty awesome, too.

I hope you don't get these ideas the wrong way. It's just that OOC is my platform of choice for everything social about Hearthstone right now, but if I want to be competitive, I have to look elsewhere most of the time. Maybe you are fine with that, but if you want to cater to a bigger audience, the two points above might be places to start.

When browsing cards in the Hearthstone card gallery, if you are on a page with one class icon clicked (so you are only seeing cards from one class), and you perform another search where you deselect the class icon, your new search will still only show you cards from the previous class you selected. Interestingly this only happens when using the Hearthstone card gallery, selecting the equivalent icons for the other card game galleries works normally. Thank you for looking into this!

Why under the own comments there is a report button?

I wanted to request a feature for filtering battle ground minions- instead of "Add a filter" and then choosing a tribe, maybe there should be an option to filter several tribes at once, maybe by excluding 2 to three tribes.

I understand that the video ad is important for the site's revenue.

Even though having it pop up over and over on every new page is extremely annoying, I would be willing to ignore that if it was not so damn hard to close it on a phone. As it is now, every time I accidentally return to the main page, there's a little voice in my head telling me to never visit this site again.

Please, just increase the size of the X.

Hey Flux and awesome OOC crew, I had an idea for a longer time and so I though it might be worth asking. We have up and down voting for posts, if we like/dislike the comments, and so I thought, maybe we could have some sort of "reputation" points for members too, as I´ve seen on some other forums. What if I like a member and want to appreciate his opinions/attitude/helpfulness, other than upvoting all of his comments? Maybe there could be some + reputation button (not - ofc, cause it could backfire badly) next to members avatars? You couldn´t vote twice for the same member, it could be anonymous (so people don´t feel forced to pay it back) and maybe it could be helpful in threads like trading a friend quests - you can upvote trusty member who traded with you, or you can check his reputation before trading, to know he is least likely to scam you, if he gained some reputation points.

Anyway, just an idea, what do you guys think? :)

Hi,

I was part of the Zalae thread recently and probably didnt help the conversation thread since I was going back and forth with someone I didnt agree with. This was yesterday and I see now that the thread's comments are now hidden. However, Im unable to see the comment replies I got - 1 being Flux himself. 

I agree regarding the thread being made hidden from comments. I dont agree that if we got a response, we can no longer see it at all. 

What I would like to see is maybe the full comment if you hover over the link of the thread title under Site Notifications. This would bypass rare situations where a thread is locked but also would allow us to avoid having to click and reload the thread.

Bonus - I would love to know what Flux replied back to me with. I care less about the other person that replied. 

Thanks and sorry.

Hi, I think such panel should on top of the front page for easy access. thank you and keep up the good work ;)

Hi, right now, we only have next page and last, is it possible to add "Go first page" and "Go last page" buttons ? thank you and keep up the good work ;)

Most users of the site probably wont notice this or care about it too much but if you spend hours deckbuilding or swapping between pages/refreshing pages you'll notice it quite a bit. Whenever you load up a new webpage there's a blindingly white blank page for just a split second. I don't know anything at all about building websites so I don't know how hard it would be to change, if it can be changed, or if it's even for just this site. It's gotten to the point where I close my eyes every time the site reloads or goes to a new page. Changing it to a darker color or just dimming it a bit would make a huge difference in my opinion. Overall the site is pretty awesome and it's my favorite place to build new decks, I'm really curious though if anyone else goes blind after doing it for too long.

Hi, can any moderator please tell me whether this hidden Drop the Shields achievement is enabled or perhaps bugged?

I am pretty sure it is unlockable similar to the other hidden Patched the Pirate achievement I completed earlier today.

Blood Knight, wink wink ;-)

Being able to track which cards I haven't seen is simply game-changing for me.

Taking time to vote and make a little note, gives me the chance to actually think about the card, rather than just be like "oooh shiny knew card, show me the next one". Feels like I know the cards more.

I know you're doing it for clicks, views and engagement, but it feels like a 2-way street. A little 'in the moment' opportunity for each card :)

Must be a lot of effort to keep it up-to-date for these hectic reveal seasons, so thanks!

So with card reveal season in full swing, I've noted that in the "Recent Threads" section is filled with nothing but card discussion. While this isn't bad or anything, I feel that it should have its own tab next to "Recent Threads" and "New Threads" that way it's dedicated and doesn't bury other threads being posted that aren't about a new card being discussed.

For example, I posted a new concept a week or so ago and a few users were commenting on every card they could so I don't know how many people saw what I posted because it was buried so far down in the forums, and I didn't want to self bump because that would have been pretty audacious.

Hey, just wanted to suggest another ad concept for mobile users. With a medium sized phone, a banner ad above the keyboard and a video ad below the logo and browser interface I often can't see what I'm typing since the comment in progress is covered by ads. I understand why you need ads, but could you be able to see what you write? Like a stripe of 20-30% of a mobile screen would stay free at least?

And, if possible no video ads for mobile users, they take more data than pictures or banner ads. 

Hi guys! How do you do? :)

I'm posting a little feature request that as far as I see is not asked until the moment and I think that could be a nice addition to the site. Or at least I'm unable to find a better way to do that so, of course, my ears are open.

Right now we didn't have a profile header gallery, everytime that you want to see a profile the only way is change directly on your profile so, if you want to choose the best for you, you should test it "on live" instead having the option to see them before changing it.

Can it be an option to see all of them before choosing one? I don't know, maybe a dedicated page where you can see all the existing profile headers (owned and/or unowned) that leads you directly to the account settings to save them or even better, a little snapshot when choosing them. Everytime our prfile header collection is bigger and bigger so our vanity in cosmetics makes us more unsure about which one to use :P

Of course that's a minor feature and I don't think that should be consider for any urgent site update (and, of course, if there's an unaware option for doing it that I don' know until now feel free to let me know) but for me can be a nice addition for a growing collection that seems will not stop for the moment.

Have a lovely day and thanks for reading me!

I don't play the other games you have on your site, but love how you are running events for all them alongside each other.

You are probably struggling to call yourselves the new kids on the block now, but updates and improvements are still happening at a rapid pace.

Nice one!

Need help.
1. Is there a way to track some old article faster without having to search each page, e.g Article about Cardback winner. or some old article about card nerf. A search function would be great. But what if I also forgot the article's title too? hmm.

Just found out where the search bar is.

2. Also tracking all of my personal replies made to certain article that may have some important point that I need to paste somewhere

Thanks in advance.
