Now that we’ve hammered out most of the issues with the new website upgrade we’ve launched a new way of viewing all the patch notes, development notes, news articles, etc. Anything that comes as an official announcement from the development team will now go to this new page!
You might be wondering, “well how do I access this awesomeness?” To see the latest news, it’s just as simple as visiting http://www.starsonata.com! All of the latest articles will post to the front page. You can also click on the Community tab, and then click on News, to get to a nice page for all news updates. That page also has categories to the right, so you can sort by just patch notes, or just News articles.
Some of you are probably thinking, “Why’d you guys change this? If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!” The truth of the matter, is having our development posts separated from the forums improves something called “SEO” or Search Engine Optimization. Basically it will help our rankings on search engines like Google, Bing, etc. It also gives people a one stop place to check our news without being logged in. We still wanted the comments integrated into the forum. You’ve probably already noticed that every post that gets posted here will auto create a development notes thread for you to comment on. The existing News Forum and Updates Forum are now archived, and are sub forums of Dev Notes so you can refer to them if you need to.
We’ve also added RSS functionality to our new blog system, and we post all new articles straight to social media as well, so you’ll never be out of the loop on the latest happenings in the Star Sonata universe.
If you have any questions on how to access your Star Sonata news, send me an email to bageese@starsonata.com and I’ll help you out!
