Welcome to Crossfire 3!

Its been a long time coming, however Crossfire 3 is here and here to stay! The third installment of the Crossfire community has been expertly coded by the wonderful and tireless Belgium taLa to whom we all owe a great deal of thanks!

The past months have been a great effort to make this site a reality and we hope it will house the now ever larger Crossfire community once more! There is an upcoming change log and more formal launch later on Tuesday however notable features include:

- Movie Section - Add your own movies, rate other peoples movies and comment
- Clan Section - Create a page for your Clan and add all your information
- Tutorials - Tell the world how to make a movie or build a config
- GamesTV Feed - The Power of RSS brings GamesTV.org to Crossfire

And of course, much more that you'll find along the way!

In the mean time however, if you do find any bugs we'd highly appriciate you posting them in The Bug Forum Thread, if you dont tell us, we wont know!

Important: all user names that have non-standard characters in them, have been converted so that all of these characters have become an underscore. Allowed characters are: a-z, 0-9, A-Z, ., *, !, -, [ and ]. If your user name contains any characters that aren't listed here, you must log in by replacing those with an underscore. For example:

my~nick will become my_nick.

If your account still doesn't work after having done this, please contact us at #crossfire.

Enjoy the site, and feel free to contribute!

Looks like a very nice update to the site.

First impression: good work :)
nicely done..

gg
I was a bit worried you'd add too much fancy stuff, but I'm positively surprised now. Looks nice! :)
<3 xfire

But perhaps a customizable font? :p

Good morning.

Hello there buzka, how are you doing?
Parent
bullshit site loL . GG
funny joke loL
Parent
I like the other design much more, but nice features! :D
First of all I dont see any significant difference between old xfire and this one.
Secondly - it looks crappy :/
That's the point...it's xfire v3, not some completly new site - take the best things & add to it. There's loads more features, less bugs & improved stuff.

The rest is personal taste (:

No worries, that's because the page didn't finish loading as the Pagination class was missing. Therefore the post generation module didn't run, which is responsible for converting all those weird usernames to their correct forms. Has been fixed.

k, after more than 1 hour surfing, watchin and stuff I wanna say:
top design (better than before)
nice new functions (especially moviesection, gvt-feed, clans)
very few things i dont like (pm-function missing in the buddylist e.g.)

but at all its better than i´ve been expecting. i really wanna say thx to the developers, especially taLa & TosspoT - great job, i hope u will never get bored of this community, thx thx thx
nice site
well done
nice :)
gotta agree with Fattony, first i disliked the new design a bit, but after surfing on xfire for about 1hour it looks great.
The missing "PM" function in the profile is bad indeed, and you cannot see anymore who visited your profile T_T

all in all
9/10 points !

well done! :D
good job, congratzzz
Nice work.

Tosspot is ET-man. If it wasnt' for tossy, i guess ET would be dead since 2 years. Tosspot is god.

Hi stu
Like it.
Looks great, but where are the self made flags :P
Thanks God we still have a plugin for firefox called Stylish and adding:
body table { width: 100% !important; }
I am able to use my 1280x1024 screen.
very n1ce!!!!
Looks absolutely superb tbh. Nice one taLa and the Crossfire team!
Nice work guys. Looks great

Looks nice, GJ. :o)
hooray! It suprises me that Xfire3 is sooner released than Duke Nukem Forever. :P
nice work :)

the box of a reply isn't good in my opinion, it was much clearier in the previous version who replies to who etc
Great, i love it :D
40KB for picture size??? GG
customflags pls :[
Parent
Awesome site :)
GG !! keep up the good work!
swiggidy sweeeeeeeet
fantastic design and changes, well done guys, ye, keep it up! :)
Its ok but still some bugs.
Lovely. Could use some flags and times at gtv feed. Tell them to put that in the rss feed:P
And maybe the article section could be emphasized a bit more like the column section is. Column section looks awesome.

Overall, gg:-)
Looks cool :)

have to get used to it tho

Nice work!
good job! I already feared that you would turn xfire into some gotfrag clone with lots of unnecessary banners and stuff but in the end it turned out to a serious (except for the community this page is supposed to host) page which answers the purpose. :-)
very nice, wp
old xfire ftw !:<
nice, i really like it
amazing, good work guys
n1ce work, i like it.
Nice work, looks really nice :D

But you made a new site without any ajax? Oo
job well done ;)
tbh i miss hits :P
WOW n1ce! <3
It is great :D

Nice work taLa
I think it is good it stayed 'xfire2' like. Too bad the colours are black, that's overused on webpages (especially gaming wise!) and it was better to stick to the xfire colour.

I kinda expected something more revolutionary while still maintaining the xfire idea. The frontpage kinda looks too much like other gaming sites.

The list of pages has to be fixed. It's useless, noone cares how many pages there are. 99% only views the last page anyway. Make it possible to view older pages (a good search option would be the best anyway) so people who care can look back.

All the navigation on the right side... Well people look webpages in a F or E view so the right side is overlooked for every first visitor.

I also expected a CSS design, not tables. Not that anyone cares but CSS only designs just look better in sources codes + google likes it better.

So:
Change back to xfire colours - black is a no no. Most important thing.

Good xfire was maintained, kinda stayed to normal doesn't warrant the waiting time but better than some huge change without the xfire idea.
Speaking from experience, you cannot please everyone all the time in website development thats for damn sure. I personally disliked the dull green of the original Crossfire but I find CF3 much easier to read, overall much much better tbh and some nice additions.

The theme isn't based around black so dont understand why you say black is a no no?

The new design has been implemented very well so not to alienate current CF users and still remains entirely recognisable.
Parent
Black is overused. Just made Xfire blue and it looked a whole lot better. #123456 owns.
Parent
Very n1ce. I love this graphic :o
Nice lay-out. Now let's hope not too many bugs pop-up. :)

Nice, but prefer the old colors which were more 'relaxing'
impressively done + unexpectedly implemented

seems like mission accomplished
flag of amsterdam plz :<
Everyone editing their profile should start by filling out Real Name since if that's missing you'll get a "You must enter your real name" and lose everything else you filled in. :(

(Silly to make that mandatory since most ppl will lie anyway.)

Looks good otherwise.
n1 design, but fixed width design ftl, and wtf, tables? hello 2002
ugly colors
great job guys
hi @ xfire3
paskan möivät
it's awesome
hi, Crossfire 3!
great job!
well..it could be nice if we could put movies into order according to the rates

Now, if we click on the Movies section, we can see the movie articles like: "Crossfire Quakecon Trailer (1314 views, 30 comments)"

this could be better for example like this:

"Crossfire Quakecon Trailer (1314 views, 30 comments, rate: 8.71)"
any chance for darker layout? :)
