Old way was better. That is all.

this new marketplace is sooo rubbish i mean when your looking through its all mixed up and when you try and search for something it just says no offers found or whatever really needs adjusting im used to just typing the things i have to see what other weapons i could get but no its impossible now

Yeah! I also hate stuff being more user-friendly and generally better to use.

It actually works great once you get past the learning curve. I was confused at first too, but you'll see, it's an incredible improvement over the old system.

Not a bad change. Being able to offer gold is great, and the color coated +1 +2 +3 dropdown is nice too. I do wish the offered item dropdown put all the heirlooms at the top still, though.

We will honestly bitch about anything. chadz could randomly give us all 100k gold and we'll bitch about how it wasn't 101k.

The new Marketplace is a very nice addition, you don't like it because you're not used to it. It's a much more secure system and much more efficient, plus adding descriptions to the transactions is a lot nicer.

Good addition/fix devs.

no.  we want the new one, it has added functionality; the ability to offer item + gold.  previously we could only offer items.

more offers per player would be nice but i understand the reason why it is limited - to decrease the size of the list

It's difficult to simulate a marketplace without server and especially to code during his spare time. Be patient and it will be fixed, and no, this's not the fault of chadz for once.

Anyhow, that seems very promising, good job Harald!

Item search only searches the offer column.
Title: Re: Marketplace Change
Post by: Uumdi on February 06, 2012, 08:21:02 am
Honestly, just give it 10 minutes to get used to.  Ability to offer gold is the best part for sure, but you can definitely find what you're looking for if you take a minute to play with the filtering options.  Good work

Post by: bonekuukkeli on February 06, 2012, 09:23:41 am
I want one feature back from old market. When I typed name of weapon in search, it gave me results without pressing 'search'. Like that it was easy to try look for different items quickly. This new one feels... slow and not as fluid as old one because of this. Otherwise I guess it just needs some time to get used to.

Post by: seddrik on February 06, 2012, 09:45:02 am
While some features are good (offering gold for items), it doesn't seem as user friendly.  Yes its now, but the old system, first time u looked at it you could use it.  Old system may have been slow but you could at a glance see everything you needed, make comparisons, see names so you can make offers of exchanges to a person by mail or haggle prices, etc.  Here, you kinda have to decifer it like a code & a lot of info doesn't seem available.  I presume the intent is to make it better eventually, but it would be nice to leave what works in place until this is made more useful.

My guess is no. They probably didn't try clicking on a listed offer, either.

This works well.

However, the "search" feature should search for requested as well as offered items.  That would be better.
Title: Re: Marketplace Change
Post by: Penitent on February 06, 2012, 08:57:18 pm
Also, I liked when the trade item offers were separated from the buy only offers....so I could browse what was on sale all at once instead of scrolling through the whole list.

No, it makes it confusing. They could've just added money offers to the last one and it would've been fine. What was wrong with the last one? Now it doesn't even show who's trading the things without clicking an extra button, and you also have to click extra buttons to search up items. I don't know about anyone else, but the one time load on Marketplace before is a good thing compared to this because I don't want my browser to take 20 seconds to load Marketplace multiple times and/or crash.

Use advanced view (http://www.c-rpg.net/index.php?page=marketplace&view=advanced).

> but the one time load on Marketplace before is a good thing compared to this because
But it will not scale, the more items there are on the market the slower it is. Everytime you opened the market it loaded hundreds of offers with no way around. That was the main reason why the limit got reduced from 10 to 5 (and we are thinking about raising that limit again).

That's what I'm talking about with "extra button." Takes me forever to load things on Marketplace, unless I'm on Steam. Internet Explorer not worky gewd....

Once you switched to advanced view it should remember it when you come back (same with search criteria). And when you say "it takes forever" does that mean it takes longer than before? Or did it always take a long time? If i search for matching requests only it is instant, loading the whole list takes a second or two (FF on windows 7).

Fyi... I have a problem to get the correct details for an offer... I described it in the problem section:

The marketplace is more like the badplace, if you know what I mean. (I mean it's bad.)
