Idea for the new "Buy X"


hybrid2hell

Recommended Posts

Well, as most of you probably know, there is now a "Buy X" option at most of the shops. This is very convienant, but what happens when you accidently make a typo, and buy 6000 Addy arrows instead of 600? Well, i propose that when you use the Buy X option and press enter, a new window comes up and says something along the lines of:

 

 

 

"Are you sure you would like to purchase X amount of X item?"

 

 

 

With an accept and decline button. Maybe you could toggle this warning on and off.

I think you have brought up a very good issue ammo. I for one would not be very pleased if I accidentally bought a ton of items and this precaution would ensure that it wouldn't happen.

 

You have my support!

No please -.-. IT Would get annoying and you know it. Better just check carefully the amount of things you're buying or only bring along the exact money needed

 

 

 

Please read the whole thing. Or pay attention more carefully. I said there could be a toggle on/off button.

Yes it would be useful, but I would just bring the exact amount of cash I need. But I do support, we all make mistakes.

Why bring so much $$ anyway? Just bring the amount for 600 only.

The fact is, that most people wont do this. You might, others might not.

 

 

 

Lord Diddy, is that a support?

I will support, toggle option or not. I never buy more than I need to using the buy x but there is a first time for everything, and this would help prevent that. :thumbup:

You know what else would get annoying? Buying 6k arrows instead of 600. Not everybody notices such errors right away.

I think a bit of player caution is needed rather than making game changes to fix it.

 

 

 

 

 

Whilst yes it does have the odd advantage like in your example.... but the vast majority of the time that is not happening. Most player who only wan't 600 would not have a huge amount of money on them anyway so it's unlikely they could get anything near 6000.

 

 

 

I think it's a precaution step too far.

 

 

 

The only way i can see this work is if it's a turnable off feature like the guy in lumby..... but still I think it's probaly best not to do it.
