Maybe it's optimized for Internet Explorer.

Comment from my friend that works at Microsoft:

Rofl this is like destroying my phone I have no way of defending this.

A proposal: Can we make a "Worst Website Ever Award - WWEA" and give it to them? :|

If whoever made this is reading, you have to do an AMA. We all have so many questions!

This looks unfinished, surely this has just been uploaded by accident?

Aston Martin's brand manager is face palming right now.

Laughably bad, literally. It's not often that 'literally' is used in the correct sense but I'm actually sitting here chuckling at how bad it is.

Scrollpocalypse Now. x_x

It's like scrolling through treacle.

Their Segue UI font isn't even loading in...

Shocking sometimes when you forget what extensions you've installed

Holy fuck! What a mess.

I quit.

Wow. Just wow.

I know my Internet is slow (I have ADSL) but this site is so slow. When you profile this thing, you see why: http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/#!/cvIZOC/http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/server-cloud/AstonMartin/#fbid=n2Z0AAKcbsK

The page size is 33.5mb... Some of the images are 1mb plus, a couple are almost 2mb. Then you have the the videos most of which around about 2mb, one of them is almost 6mb. If Microsoft used lazy loading on this thing, it would be substantially faster.

This is a classic example of how to NOT follow a trend. It's pretty much parody level. Who approved this thing? I'm speechless. Scrolling this website is like trying to swim your way out of a tar pit or quicksand.

Can this trend of turning websites into Powerpoint please end now? The whole scroll-jacking thing is getting tiresome, I just want to get some sleep.

It's always nice to come across a site that makes me feel better about my own work : )

So this is what it feels like to be hit by Aston Martin

Forget the scroll jacking crap, the entire webpage is ugly as fu**

There is just so much of everything. If you use the scroll bar quickly it's like a bad acid flashback (so I've heard).

Design by buzzword and committee?

This looks like it was made by an intern who was given a busy project

Don't jack my scroll, bro.

I'm sure it works great in IE. LOL.

Wonder what the story behind the creation of this is. The fixed width and weird scrolling makes me think there's a specific platform for it, like on display in a car dealership or something. Maybe it's a prototype created with some new in-house software.

Even though I was warned with the post title.. I still wanted to throw my mouse through the computer screen. So bad it hurts my soul.

I felt like I was working out when I was scrolling through this site. It was extremely tough to navigate and focus on the content at the same time. If the goal of the site was to make it as tough navigate as it is to buy one of these cars, I would say Microsoft succeeded. Otherwise, they have some usability issues to work through.

Willing to bet < 1% users even made it to the end of that thing. And < 1 % of those users read it.

"Horrible, get me out of here!"-experience

So painful!

This is - and I don't use this word often because of the extremely heavy connotation - an abject abortion.

Surely this is not a finished piece of ....

L.M.F.A.O. I can not stop laughing--and this isn't even that funny. I was at the top... slow, slow, slow then boom, straight to the bottom.

The scroll rate when using the mouse or trackpad scroll is insane. Maybe they figure that most of their users only use scroll bars?

It works marginally well if you use the browser scroll bar. You can at least see what they're going for.

On a phone the scrolling works best if you swipe up like flipping through a carousel. But the layout becomes a joke.

Non-linear storytelling according to Microsoft: have the story fly in from all directions at once.

Two 'suits' stood at the water cooler, one says to the other "So I saw this awesome website where everything moves as you scroll down. Think we should do something like it?"

The other goes a bit over the top...

Today I posted this on my Twitter account. How can people think parallax is something cool. What leads you think the whole experience of browsing is decided by the smoothness of your mouse scrollwheel. Unbelievable.

:\

Of course I'd love to see text flying into the screen mid-way and hang there.

Grotesque. Anyone ever get to the end?

Sweet baby George!!! Since when scroll jacking is good? But this one is terrible. It does look unfinished, almost fake no?

This is a nightmare.

My finger is literally tired. This is bad. The scrolling is bad. The website itself looks bad. Just bad altogether.
