Sometimes a full search doesn't even work, like when I searched "Mirage" for Assassin's Creed Mirage in the game section. It seems that perhaps this happens when an exact match is found for the words I used in the search, since there was another game just called "Mirage". I've seen this happen with movies too, although I can't think of any examples right now.
I used to be able to search by the subtitle and search suggestions worked fine.
EDIT: It seems it won't find my title in the full search if there are any other titles that START with the words I've used. For example, I searched for "Valhalla" to find Assassin's Creed Valhalla, but it only showed games that started with the word Valhalla.
If you search by a movie/game's subtitle, search suggestions don't work.

Thanks for pointing this out! It should work in the way you expect, so it does seem as though there's an issue here. We'll take a look and update here once it's fixed!

Re: If you search by a movie/game's subtitle, search suggestions don't work.
Tried searching for "Last Blood" and didn't get "Rambo: Last Blood" in the search suggestions. I did see it in the full search results, although it was a bit down the list.
EDIT: "Under the Red Hood" didn't show in search suggestions either.
"Legend of the Jungle" didn't show "Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle" in either search suggestions or the full search results
"The Killing Joke" doesn't show "Batman: The Killing Joke" in search suggestions, although it does appear in full results
Found another strange search issue. Searching for "Land of the Lost" gives me these results:
That one showed the correct title in suggestions but now it's not there in full results. I didn't click the suggestion because I couldn't remember what year the movie I was looking for was from.
Another odd issue: I can find Saturday Night (2024) through the search suggestions, but it doesn't appear in the full search results. Same thing with Speak No Evil

Re: If you search by a movie/game's subtitle, search suggestions don't work.
Thanks so much for reporting this, with all the examples -- that's really helped I think.
Could you give it another shot now? The auto-complete is a little different because speed is so important, so that's why there are some discrepancies between its results and the full search. But we've made it a little smarter.
Let us know if anything still appears to be off!

Re: If you search by a movie/game's subtitle, search suggestions don't work.
Most of the examples I gave above are working well now, except for "Legend of the Jungle" which is oddly giving the same two results I posted in the image above when I was searching for "Land of the Lost" last night.
I'll let you know if I run into any other issues.

Thanks for this additional information! We've improved the search so that it finds matches like this more accurately.morphinapg wrote: ↑Wed Oct 30, 2024 11:39 pmMost of the examples I gave above are working well now, except for "Legend of the Jungle" which is oddly giving the same two results I posted in the image above when I was searching for "Land of the Lost" last night.
