Hey Everyone,

Thanks for all the feedback you've been providing for the Community Beta, every bit helps and we're excited to continue to develop the new system in collaboration with all of you. Starting next week we'll be making some changes and want to provide you with a general overview of what to expect.

**Changes **

  • Existing Sub-Communities will be reduced from 10 to 7 topics. These will include, Gameplay and Strategy, Esports, Live Blance, Fan Creations, Memes and Games, New Community Feedback and a Miscellaneous Sub-Community.
  • Content from the communities that are being temporarily spun down will be relocated to the Miscellaneous category. This Sub-Community is intended to temporarily provide an "other" place for things that don't fit anywhere else. We do not expect this to be permanent.

Once again, thank you so much for the feedback thus far and keep an eye out for future change announcements over the course of the next few weeks.

Did you just post the same topic 10 times?

I can get on board with these changes. Glad to see a miscellaneous type to be a hold over until you guys get the sub-communities locked down and adjusted appropriately. Thanks for letting us know about the changes coming up.

(BTW, any changes on the horizon regarding the color scheme and visibility issues that some people have as far as the brightness and the contrast are concerned?)

Fair enough, not sure what to say really since it's relatively insignificant without other changes. From what I'd assume there will be other changes soon however, so great to see!

So the communities replaced and/or removed will be the 'Ideas & Feedback', 'Story & Style', 'Teamwork & Behavior', and 'Help& Support' if I read this correctly. The first two I can see melded into their relatively close sister-communities, but I don't see the transition happening easily for the latter two, imho.

What's the plan for the Help & Support community? I personally think that's a staple in almost all game forums, is Help% Support access getting its own thing somewhere else?
