Its nice to have this platform again! I welcome it and lets see what can be done here. However there are some minor wishes that come to mind looking at the forum as it is right now (brand new, paint still wet).
- Theme options or a less contrasty "black & white" theme (why not Squad Website grey?)
- Maybe some of the emojis from the discords?
- A wider layout? on a 1440p screen i feel like writing on a post-it :-D
- Maybe a bit more info displayed on the person posting
- Maybe OWI Team Members name in Yellow to diretly see the difference?
- The ability to switch times between AM/PM and 24h
- remove the written out words next to the reaction icons (like, agree, lol) it looks messy and people will be able to handle it without
- personal flavour: navigation left or top but right is letting me not sleep at night its so strange
thats it for the most part im curious to know what other people here might have to add.
As stated: its suggestions and not "oh you did everything bad fix the forums" 👍️

Damn, scince i cant edit:
The ability to only quote part of another persons post or comment and not the entire post would also be a nice feature
Pinned the thread, so we can collect feedback more easily. For any bugs or issues check this thread:
Agreed, this along with theme options are the two I'd want most.
Edit feature especially is a big thing imo. Recruitment and modding posts need regular updates.
Also I was wondering if there is a way to make the forum a bit more easy to navigate. Like general also has a few suggestion posts in it so maybe transfer those to here?
But all in all, happy to have the forum back :D
Being able to edit your own posts and quote a specific part of someone else's post is a must have.
I second this.
The forum is based around the "reaction buttons" yet they don't stand out very well, and just seem like another option with "flag & quote"
However reactions are paramount to this communities setup, so they should remain in a clear, and encouraged area, they could change colors from white to yellow when utilized to encourage others to click those buttons as often as possible.
Also please add a "server feedback" section again, for example server [CI] Corrupted Infantry uses the server-side option "announcements" (ingame-messages) way too often imo, ruining immersion.
Fallujah Invasion v1 stats please? I have the impression that insurgents always beat US team before they can even capture 1st flag.
Like many others already said a edit function for posts would be great. If you dont want to give everybody the option to do this (what I wouldnt really understand, because its a fundamental), then you could do it like on youre discord. give the modders/recruiters a role, which allows them to do this. I think that would help out quit a little.
Make it possible to submit bug reports on the forum.
Make it possible to Submit admin abuse reports
(Like you had before, it worked nice from a users stand point imo)
Here are some suggestions for features I'd really like to see implemented in the game that I think would keep players interested in the game and add some attraction to new players. I couldn't find a feed back or official email address to send my suggestions to so I figured this would be the place.
Some sort of progression system. Can be rank that can be seen in the tab menu and you get promoted based off of the scored gathered from completing a game.
Some sort of aesthetic unlocks. similar to how hell let loose allows simple unlocks that are purely aesthetic and makes your character a bit unique.
Some sort of simple weapon modifications. Example: Basic Rifleman class Starts out with irons by default and can later unlock a red dot, to a holo, to a 2x scope. Or different types of grips. Something to make playing a specific class more interesting, but base weapons stay the same or similar.
Statistics tracking. I think this would be really big especially for players like me who have had the game since pre-alpha where I could keep track of my best games or overall total kills or headshots or highest scores or best weapons.
Thanks I hope one of the devs sees this or someone. I don't think these changes would negativly impact what the game is or will become and still maintain the games identity.
Thanks to anyone reading this.
We are now at that VR flash point, just like it was when I was a kid and got my brand new NES for x-mas. Several of our friends and relatives have, and are getting them this year. Its time For OWI to Drop a heavy foot in VR over then next year or 2. The VR fruit on the tree is about to Pop.
Explain to us first why are you not focusing on improving the game performance and gameplay mechanics rather than focusing on adding useless factions like the Aussies and etc.
Adding a disagree button would be a good addition.
We need a usable replay system.

I think that after the chinese and australian factions, even the german and the italian factions should be added. Then, the recoil when firing semi-auto is too much, that's almost the same as the auto's recoil. Surely needs to be a bit lower. Instead the accuracy it's perfect in all the two firemods.
