Next up for new CAG 4.0 features, we have a new front page overhaul. One of the main criticisms of the old front page (and rightly so) is that it was mostly stale content, broken widgets and just a small area at the top showing deals from Twitter. The new front page takes a different approach.
Now the front page is a window into the past 24 hours of @videogamedeals, featured posts, threads (and soon other content types), pinned along a timeline. Reach the bottom, and you can scoot back another 24 hours. And unlike the @videogamedeals Twitter feed, if you don't care about deals for a specific platform, just filter it out using the timeline filter tools.
A featured front page post from the forums
A deal from @videogamedeals, complete with CAGBot assessment and game page link
Navigate to past days using the timeline navigation
Filter by post type, deal type or platform
Future updates
We'll be adding new timeline content types (all filterable), including:
Confirmed issues/bugs
None so far.

- Game cards for titles releasing on that day
- User-specific content (e.g. when you've received feedback from other CAGs)
- Blogs, marketplace and other upcoming add-on content types
