New Bodog software beta

teddyFBI · #1 12-12-2005, 09:44 PM

So Bodog is testing a new client interface -- sry, don't know if it's supposed to be released to public yet, so I won't post link here (and please don't PM me).

Verdict: not a fan. At all.

I've posted a screenshot here, sweating it out at the 5/10 nanolimits.

Biggest problems: cards are absolutely tiny, and it's really tough to tell when other players have folded, because cards aren't out in front of the players, but rather concealed away in the little boxes...and there's no table...it's just boxes on a red background arranged in a funky way. I'm pasting it full size, so you can appreciate it. Hopefully it's only in the early beta phase and improvements will continue.

What was wrong with their old software? I always liked it pretty well.

so in your role as "tester" are you supposed to report back to bodog with your improvement suggestions or complain on a message board? just wondering out loud

in my opinion bodog cards are already to small and they are going to be smaller? makes no sense what so ever.

Fair question. I have already sent comments back to Bodog -- thought people here would like a sneak peek.

Apparently, the cards weren't small enough.

Please suggest the following:

Smaller table/table area, larger cards, smaller chat area.

You should be able to fit 4 no overlap on 1600 x 1200.
