Are you referring to the blocks on the side? Keep in mind, iterative design.. those are easily added/removed, but to start we've attempted to standardize the sidebar across the site.

Yes, those.

A few complaints about really high resolutions. These resolutions are not normal and admittedly got less attention - our traffic in this resolution range is < 1% with 1600px width being the most common. We went with a fairly web standard 1200px content width with sidebar, so if the sidebar doesn't show then it definitely looks worse.
Meanwhile, considering ways to retain the design aesthetic while accommodating larger screen resolutions.
Some pages, like the forum index, will undergo more changes. But we wanted to get the design out so users can become familiar with it before we made even bigger changes to frequently used pages.

Make the sizing dynamic. The new design might work great on a mobile browser, but it doesn't work at all on a desktop. It should resize to fit the window. It is my choice to have my browser window maximized and I do so so that I can see more content.

I'm 1920x1200, on my main monitor, thankfully I also use Stylish.

iterative design

Count me among those who would prefer to see this iteration rolled back. Forced widths have always been irksome. For many years they were the running gag about the news industry, since many seemed fixated in 80 chars wide and everybody in the world had more text than that.

This one isn't much wider than those painfully bad widths used to be. It is a little wider, but still far too narrow for my tastes. If I want narrower widths, I'll resize my browser.

Here’s a quick user style sheet to maximize the content width for now:

Thanks for that. I wasn't looking forward to hunting down where those changes were. Typical browsing width resumed.

We've been having some discussions in private messages, it seems large monitors and high content density weren't really the priority.

My old script doesn't work to well with the new layout, so I'm starting a new one. I'm still refining it, but my new stylish script at least allows me to view several comments at a time. Still needs some effort to become beautiful. Mostly the changes are eliminating the enormous margins, borders, and padding; many were adding 10-20 pixels, plus the double-high heights that conspired to eat all the vertical space. That is in addition to reversing the updated horizontal space limits.

.gamedev-content-container {
	width:  90% !important;
}
.gamedev-content {
	float:    none;
	width:    auto;
	overflow: hidden;
}
.h3, .h4, .h5, .h6, h3, h4, h5, h6, p, .post_body, .post_block, .posted_info, .ipsBox {
    margin: 0 !important;
    border: 0 !important;
    padding: 0 !important;
    line-height: normal !important;
    height: initial !important;
}
body {
    font-size: 12 !important;
}

Still has much work to go and isn't beautiful, but I'm once again seeing 4-5 posts on my monitor.

Here’s a quick user style sheet to maximize the content width for now:

.gamedev-content-container {
	width:  initial !important;
}

.gamedev-content {
	float:    none;
	width:    unset;
	overflow: hidden;
}

Thank you very much.

Is there any way to get the old 'latest forum topics'? Right now I can see at most 5. I liked it previously as I could quickly see what people were chatting about. Clicking on the 'latest forum topics' simply brings me to the forums.

Ahh thank-you :)
