Hi, everyone!
The Stadia Community Team is excited to announce some upcoming enhancements to the Community Forum experience.
Beginning on Friday, September 25 at 9AM PT, Stadia players will be able to link their Stadia account with their forum account. This functionality will have two immediate effects:
Founders will be recognized and given a distinguishing badge attached to their username on topics and comments. Founders will also be granted access to a special gated area of the Community called the “Founders Hub,” with some exclusive benefits, such as Q&A sessions with the Stadia Team and more.
Non-Founder Stadia players will be given a Stadia Player badge much like the Founder badge but with a different icon.
So what will all of this look like?
Once the feature is live, you will need to be logged out, then sign-in with Google SSO. Make sure to select the e-mail to which your Stadia account is tied. You will be prompted to grant or deny access to your Stadia account. Note: you may revoke access any time to your Stadia account by the Forum by visiting your Google account’s security settings.
After approving access, your forum account will be automatically updated to reflect your status as either a Founder or Stadia Player . To see a glossary of all current badges and icons, check out this post.
If you are not already a forum member, you will be asked to select a username. Founders will see a new link on the homepage to the Founders Hub. You will also find a link to this area in the hamburger menu.
With this functionality, we will be able to build out a rich feature set in the future to further enhance the Community for all players. In the next update from us, you’ll hear a bit more about our plans, including the addition of a gamification system and other cool features. If you have ideas you’d like to share with us, please leave a comment below.
As a final note, we’d like to thank our Founders for believing in Stadia. Early adopters pave the way for those to come, and you deserve recognition. This is just the beginning of our journey together, and we are tremendously excited to have you all along.
Signing off, The Stadia Community Team
