Mobile version of Polycount site?

Eric Chadwick · Aug 2013

Wondering how others browse PC on their mobiles. For me, the forum is a bit of a pita, requires a lot of zooming and scrolling to see stuff.

I wonder if there's interest in a m.polycount.com kind of portal...?

bounchfx · Aug 2013

that would be great. I use it a lot on mobile. Check out neogaf's mobile interface, it seems to work really well for forum usage. (its just m.neogaf.com)

it would be sick yeah, ive been using this http://www.conceptroot.com/pcfeed/

This 1000 times please. I didn't realize what PC what missing until our PlayHawken forums got a mobile version. Very convenient.

Yes please, me and my brother was talking about this earlier today

Using my mobile atm.

James Ordner · Aug 2013

I would use it.

passerby · Aug 2013

ya I'm posting from my phone atm, and this would be nice

Eric Chadwick · Aug 2013

Apparently it's in the works, yay!

Uh I asked for this like 2 years ago, nobody even replied to me. All it would take is to install Tapatalk for the forum and you've got a proven mobile version of the forum.
Let's hope it comes soon...

Sitting on the toilet would be that much better if this were to happen

Oh, I thought it was just me.

I try tilting my phone sideways to read the forums.

EDIT: I would vote for pc upgrade for phones however.

Like something like fb app wouldnt hurt.

SHEPEIRO · Aug 2013

i dont think its THAT BAD but could definitely do with an optimisation

the worst is the tiny "go to last post" link which i use all the time

Xoliul · Aug 2013

Here's what Tapatalk looks like:

I don't think people realize what they're missing without proper mobile support.

Sweet! I check Polycount on my iPad all the time at home. Lots of scrolling and zooming in.

It'll be nice to have a mobile version!

This makes me happy.

We have a really good mobile site on mapcore as well, check it out if you want to.

And yes, I would love to see a mobile version of PC.

Jeff Parrott · Aug 2013

Can't wait!

cptSwing · Aug 2013

Awesome news

axxic3 · Apr 2014

Any updates on a mobile version?

Check the date mang. That's a big soon. I too would also love this feature for the forums. So, take as long as necessary.

Xoliul · Apr 2014

It's been like 2-3 years since I started asking for this...

adam · Apr 2014

Yikes, I'm being called out. That's OK though! At this point the best I can do is promise you guys that things are happening. Like actual hard, real effort is being put in to some new things for you guys. It just takes time as Polycount isn't our full time jobs.

So if I can borrow some of that Valve Time from our friends at Valve, I'll go ahead and say it again: Soon.

geothefaust · Sep 2014

A bump... No, necrobump.

Any movement on Tapatalk? Thanks!

Xoliul · Sep 2014

I'm still waiting. And I'm sure Tapatalk could have been installed like 10 times over already.

There are bigger things afoot. Mobile is hitching a ride. Not long now!

Lazerus Reborn · Sep 2014

The sheer amount of effort needed to build a website from scratch while importing over legacy information & making sure that such a large community base is kept happy... well i'm not jealous of the dev's in charge but dammit they have my respect!

With the Wiki updated not long ago, i can see that delaying the new build but it's not like polycount will mass exode over waiting haha!

Keep up the good work!

really if your using a decent mobile browser that warps text to fit on the screen when zoomed its pretty easy to browser PC from a phone or tablet.

i use PC daily on both a nexus4 and a nexus7 no problems

ponjarphy · Sep 2014

Looking forward to This.
Though it is only because pictures pose a problem when i browse from my phone.
The text Seems to easily align itself when i zoom. But This would make p&p much Nicer to look at with a mobile device.

Hey, thats great! Thanks!

As for me, I wouldnt use a mobile version of PC. According to RescueTime, I spent 1,5 - 2 hours per day here anyway, so I dont have the need to also check it when im away from the computer.
Also, answering threads is much more convenient on a computer. I would be much less active if I were to check the site on a phone

EDIT: Didnt realize the huge necro ^^

Mobile version of Polycount site?
