With this post, I don't want to prove anything or impose an opinion on anyone, I just want to get feedback from other users and people involved in the development. Everything I say below is just my thoughts.

let's talk about the game as a whole.

As for me, the game (platform) now looks like an attempt at a sandbox for programmers, which negatively affects creative people who do not understand the code but would like to create something of their own.

The game does not have (at least I did not find) the function of creating a closed server or a local server for friends.

There is no list of downloaded maps, as well as the possibility to install a map in advance without visiting it.

As for me, it would be more convenient to add modes and maps to favorites or install this in advance.

It would be much more convenient to see the familiar interface for games, where when creating a server, you can immediately select a mode and a map, rather than first searching for a mode and then searching for a map in the menu of this mode.

And the most necessary thing for me is ready-made add-ons that can be added to any game mode or mode that supports add-ons.

And about the additions. You can now see models, textures, maps, etc. on the site.
Why not add a tab with ready-made solutions. For example, a ready-made pack of weapons that shoots, picks up and deals damage? 

P.S. you can make ready-made add-ons free for use inside the S&Box and paid for a separate edition of games outside the S&Box resource.

It would be great to access the editor directly from the game.

Create a party, and then start a game, should be pretty straight forward.

You have the ability to add every resource type (games/maps/materials/etc) to favourites. newly favourited games will show on the hub page in the game. (maps, materials, etc won't show here)


As for the rest, i think there's still room for improvement on the UI for seeing installed games/maps/etc, make an issue on github with the suggestions individually so they can be reviewed and potentially worked on.
