PP has updated their client software today. How do you like the new look of that software. For me it is outright ugly. Times are changing, for the worse.
I don't mind it so much. I don't really care how it looks.
I hope they improved some things, in terms of stability, so far it was okay, except I needed to reboot for it to work properly; at first, before rebooting, there were lots of error messages...
I think the missions and achievements; may tempt some players to try different things, which might improve traffic, and is an easy way to freeroll tickets.

Had to go and search on Google for screens of the new version u guys made me curious. Personally i think its ok... follows the pattern that softwares and webpages are taking nowadays in design/colors terms. If it is more functional and stable only you guys that play there can tell but in what the looks are concerned I've seen way WAY worse.

I downloaded it too just to see how it moves, in terms of functionality it moves a bit faster than the old one.
The bad part is that it's not as easy to use and intuitive as other software out there(FTP, 888). I guess people that play there daily will have better reviews.

Gosh...had forgotten about this so am downloading the upgrade as I type...cant wait to see how disillusioned I am based on the negative comments on here. In my experience, revised poker set ups ae always a bad thing to start but before long we get used to them and think they are great!!!.............
Oooooooh! Just seen it and first impressions are I dont like it!

out of curiosity i upgraded my software as well...interface seems to look a lot cleaner, they also added missions to their arsenal of promotions...but really they don't look too attractive, usually what u get is some ticket to the freeroll...and as it is the case most often: u lose a pile of cash while trying to complete those mission

We cant play there any more its been a few months now that Party Poker stopped accepting players from certain countries and Greece was in that list. If you had an active account during that day you could keep playing. But they considered inactive accounts as new ones and didnt allow deposits for reactivation. Bit of silly

I downoaded and i have to say, ok the tables are lighter and worst, but the interface is awesome! Its faster, cleaner, and i love the missions they have! Its funbny, its amuzing and thats how onine poker should be! You have new mission, colectibles, and other new things that are really adictibr, and if youstart you want to finish them all, andu can win nice valuable freerolls!
Okthe tables seems worse, but its party and partypoker is always 1 step forward of the rivals, they have some ideas that soo nor later the rivals will copy!
