Our beloved taLa has been hard at work on xfire recently, and has provided what could be the final update for Xfire 2, prior to the release of version 3 later on this summer.
The filter system is now completely operational, working on News, Columns, Polls and Articles. There has become a need for this system to become operational as the community grows into a diverse selection of games. With ET:Quakewars upcoming and having the potential to fragment those who chose not to play that game, it soon became obvious we needed to offer segregation on the site for those that chose.
The decision was made to utilise effective filters, over subdomains pergame for keeping everything centralised and for use of a centralised index.
Users wishing to contribute to the site now must assign a category for their news, column or article or admins will assign them should there be an error.
This paves the way for more general gaming news, be they flavour of the month (like warsow) or eSports news, with the functionality to add an additional game. Now this has been an urge of xfire for sometime, when is the time to expand and when isnt, where to expand to and with who?
We have decided to expand to 1 additional game (CoD), however will not follow the portal model used by esreality, and the site will remain specific game exclusive. This is not the official launch of coverage for CoD, however that will come next weekend.
Use your filters, make the site show only news you are interested in, and report any bugs!
Fear not, as Crossfire has and will continue to take every precaution to preserve the mentality of this site. Three years and counting, we will continue to fly the flag for the Wolfenstein community.
