Thanks for flagging this, weā€™ve found the cause should have a fix in soon

This is a great update. I was wondering why there were thumbnails for events, but they never showed up on the game page. This new update makes the events very clear to old players and encourages them to replay the game during special events.

However, Iā€™m not sure if everyone has the same layout now. When I checked with my alt account that hasnā€™t played the game, the event row still appeared at the top without thumbnails. This might be confusing for new players. I suggest keeping the thumbnails and placing the event row under the description. This way, players would read the description first instead of seeing events that might not mean anything to them.

Hey Preston,

This issue should be fixed now. Thanks again for flagging!

This update looks promising! Making events more visible on the Experience Details page is a great way to drive engagement. One feature that could take this even further is countdown timers for events. Steam uses this to build anticipation, and it could help creators boost excitement leading up to an eventā€™s start on Roblox.

Another idea is to offer event analytics. Providing creators with insights like peak participation times, average time spent in the event, and engagement trends would help us better optimize our future events and understand what works best.

Overall, excited to try out these improvements. Keep up the awesome work!

Cheers,

It is; I donā€™t recommend anyone using AI-generated icons or thumbnails. It is not hard to create icons, and even if you canā€™t, there are kits for it.

Haters are just gonna hate ~ a defect in their character.
I think it is really cool - nothing wrong with it at all.
If they donā€™t like itā€¦ move pastā€¦ stay on topic.

For me ā€¦ this is something I have been waiting for - will have lots of events in an upcoming game.
Just need to see whatā€™s coming up in the RDC24 event announcements.
Forwarded some questions for events - streaming abilities - player increases.

Hey @addisonshiu - thanks for the positive feedback! Curious to see how your event participation and overall engagement changes with these upgrades.

Regarding your other question, the reason you see different layouts on your alt account(s) is because we are currently testing this new design, so not everyone is getting it. A full release is planned soon.

Hey! Event analytics is absolutely something weā€™re thinking about. Our first step was to add event start/end annotations to your key engagement charts, but ultimately we want to have a page dedicated to your event whilst itā€™s happening, and a nicely wrapped post-event summary for you to see how it went, and what to improve next time.

Thanks for the thoughts!

Why was this reverted and the events moved down below again? It practically makes them invisible and useless
