Why remove the 48H feeds? | Forums

[QcChopper]

I can't believe the only feeds that were actually useful were removed
Finding good recent tracks is hard enough and since advanced search omits track creators in the list it is not much more useful, It makes good recent tracks hard to find and it doesn't make me want to release one. I am sad because I was waiting for the PC version but unless there are some changes I might not, I feel like the search and feed are much worse than on the 360, and to be honest, and on the 360 it was bad enough already but at least you can find some good maps in the 48H feeds.

You scared me Qc, thought this was on 360!

Yeah forgive the initial rant but there are some things that can clearly be improved:

-The 48H feeds: please put them up, the featured track doesn't need to take almost half the feed screen page, there are already features on the main page.

-There aren't enough tracks in the feeds themselves.

-Track creator names should appear on the advanced search list without clicking on a track name.

One step forward, two steps back.

It's so big and stretched out its blurry

I have come to realize that my initial post was insensitive to our good friends at RedLynx, I edited it to make the tone seem less harsh. I apologize for not giving a good example, I just get too passionate sometimes about things I love.

I also want to add that the custom search is a great feature overall, it would be much more useful to me if we could see the track creator straight from the list. So for me, finding good new tracks is hard in the advanced search because, well I can't really trust ratings or track names, the only way I can find great tracks for sure is by looking for names I know and trust. The feeds could be improved a lot IMO, the best of all-time feeds get redundant quickly, and with only 20 tracks showing per feed it leaves much to be desired and it seems unfair to people who have been spending lots of time for their work to go unnoticed.

EDIT: Antti has said to me (if I understood correctly) that the missing 48 hour feeds were an omission, not really a deliberate thing, and that we can expect them to be back in the near future.
