Here in the Search nav, you can.... SEARCH. Start typing a game or gamer, it will autosuggest. Press one to go, or hit Enter to get the full search results.
Below the searchbox, you'll see recent games, gamers, clubs, events, and quests you've visited.
Below that is the full site map with all of the different pages on this platform. Most of these are accessible in the other navs too. But here they're all in one place, if you're into that sort of thing.
Jump in a virtual or IRL event, tournament, or league. Participate in a Quest (a gaming challenge that you can do any time). Channel 3 has something for all skill levels, including gaming-focused daily minigames.
Go to Events below to search for real-time tournaments or other events. Quests will show you offline challenges you can complete at any time.
Quests are challenges you can do on your own, any time you want. Some are simple questions, others are things you need to do in game, such as time trials.
You may have friends here already, or you may meet your next lifelong squadmate here. Either way, Channel 3 is most fun when you find your people and can have friendly competitions and participate in challenges together.
Below you can navigate all the gamers, clubs, and causes on Channel 3.

Whether it's 1 to 2, or 99 to 100, leveling up is the best feeling in the world. On Channel 3, when you participate in quests, when your post gets 1Up'd, when you crush a daily minigame, you get XP. Get 1k XP, and you level up and unlock rewards. Rewards can be custom reaction GIFs, cool backgrounds, or prize wheel spins for IRL gaming gear or in game currency.
Turbo is an optional subscription for superusers. You don't need Turbo to enjoy Channel 3. Turbo users get early access to new features, and are able to unlock more levels in a season.
On Channel 3, seasons last 3 months. They will always run January 1 - April 1, April 1 - July 1, July 1 - October 1, and October 1 - January 1.

Tap the Share button in the middle of the footer.
Tap Add to Home Screen.

BOOM. You're done. iPhones try to act like it's "just a website bookmark" because they want everyone to go through the App Store but really it functions just like an app... Full screen, moveable icon on your home screen. All of it.
Enjoy.
Install the Channel 3 app from the Google Play Store.
Sadly, this was a huge dissapointment. The main reason most people bought this was to play 64 player online console battles with a revived community that still has a decent player base. However, Aspyr f'ed up the launch and clearly did no or little testing to ensure things would run smoothly. Way too many bugs, crashes, and lag/hit detection issues to no fault of the end user.
I did have some matches that ran OK, and the single player was fun to revisit on console with a bit of the added content I didn't have before on PC. I also ran a few smaller lobbies with friends which worked well (outside of the matchmaking hassle). Hopefully they will continue to patch it and quickly iron things out so they don't lose a great player base that is starved for content (even with the newer battlefront games).
I know this remastered collection has gotten plenty of negative press. I guess I was lucky for the most part because it's run really smoothly for me. Loving the updated visuals and online play. Not sure why they changed the loading screen sound on BF1. Some minor glitches now and then but still having a blast.
