Thread Status: Not open for further replies. Page 1 of 8 1 ← 2 3 4 5 6 → 8 NextBuhlaine Community Manager Joined: Feb 5, 2016 Posts: 362 On February 28th the Feedback website will shut down and be redirected to the Unity forums . This will be the primary source of community feedback until we’re able to get a new, more scalable, and dedicated feedback solution in place (more details on that in the coming months). The forums are a great place for discussion, ideation, and inspiration between community members and Unity team members. Feedback submitted by you, the community, is a primary driver in the success of the Unity platform. Over the years, you have volunteered your time to ensure that Unity becomes the best it can be and for that we thank you. The Feedback website was our initial foray into an organized method of feedback collection. At the time, we were a smaller company with less visibility into the wants and needs of the community. The Feedback website served its initial purpose well, but was not created with scalability in mind. Community feedback is highly prioritized and we will always continue to value it. It comes to us from the forums, social media, customer support, in-person events...everywhere - and that is what makes the Unity community so great. Thank you, The Unity Community Team Buhlaine , Feb 21, 2019 #1 KentenFina91interactive , Naka23 , Rodolfo-Rubens and 27 others like this.

Can you do this for Answers too? It’s been so poorly maintained for so long that it’d probably be best to archive it and direct everyone to the forums instead.

JohnnyFactor Joined: May 18, 2018 Posts: 187 When doing Google searches, Answers has an easy way to tell what the solution is because it’s at the top of the page and is marked green. Finding solutions on the forums involves trawling through pages of irrelevant posts to find that one post that might be the solution. In the last year of LOTS of Googling (because I’m a new user), Answers has provided me the solution 9 out of 10 times. The forums have failed pretty hard at this.

I have a different experience. It’s not that I haven’t found solutions in Answers, but I have found plenty more in the forums, and, above all, usually more in-depth responses, from many more people, and from Unity devs in some cases.

The problem would be that you’d lose the votes system, and I suspect it could end up being a bit of an unorganized mess, difficult for Unity to handle. I personally think it’s a good idea to move it to its own space. DED-Games , Feb 21, 2019 #6 talyh and OfficialHermie like this. Baste Joined: Jan 24, 2013 Posts: 4,997 About time! I’ve always felt that interacting with Unity devs through the forums has been a lot more productive than interacting with the feedback site.

Baste Joined: Jan 24, 2013 Posts: 4,997 @Buhlaine , will you take a round of taking feedback on, uh, the feedback? You apparently understand that it’s not a good solution anymore, but we’d love to talk with you about how you’re doing feedback. Baste , Feb 22, 2019 #9 Clonkex , Flipbookee and transat like this.

I have created a few feedback items that are important to me. Should I create forum threads for these feedback items now, or is the feedback content automatically migrated to forum threads? If I should create new forum threads for those feedback items, is there a dedicated feedback forum? Peter77 , Feb 22, 2019 #10 Clonkex likes this.

That doesn’t mean they are useless. Votes are not binding, they are hints. How important they are can only be answered by Unity, of course. DED-Games , Feb 22, 2019 #11 Clonkex likes this.

If how important they are can only be answered by Unity then, by that very condition, they’re kinda useless, aren’t they?

Thanks for asking, we’re open to feedback on how you feel the forums can best be suited for feedback. You can leave those suggestions here and I can promise you it will get in front of the right eyes. In the future, when we have our dedicated and scalable solution, we’ll let everyone in the community know and you’ll of course be welcome to provide feedback then as well!
