Tailor interface
 
Instead of clicking through 27 pages of 5 shirts with differing colors/patterns, why not show the shirt style on the left, and have the color/pattern choices on the right? They do something similar on the initial pirate set up screen.

Code:

|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|Shirt 1                                        |                                |
|                                              |                                |
|                                              |                                |
|Shirt 2                                        |                                |
|                                              |            Color/Pattern        |
|                                              |            Choices in          |
|Shirt 3                                        |              This area          |
|                                              |                                |
|                                              |                                |
|Shirt 4                                        |                                |
|                                              |                                |
|                                              |                                |
|Shirt 5                                        |                                |
|                                              |                                |

Click on the shirt, then when you click on the Color/Pattern option it will appear on the shirt you have selected.

That is a good idea, it gets old fast searching through the same shirts in different colors....and maybe they can fix the color names- cant tell you how many times I have bought a "brown" shirt and had it be yellow or something else

MacIronhawk 11-19-2008 03:28 PM

Sounds like a good idea but I don't think would add this in because:
It would probably cause more lag with the cloths out in the shop. Imagine hundreds of pieces of cloths in one little area.

ukebec 11-19-2008 04:04 PM

That looks like a great idea. I wish they'd do something, because heartburn is right; it gets old fast and the color names aren't true.

Good idea Rackat. I like how when we make our pirates we could get those one of a kind vests or pants based on the color panel they give us. Although I wouldn't mind some more room in my wardrobe as well

Aliese 11-19-2008 05:05 PM

I would much prefer that to what we have now. I'd like to see more options for colors, too, and, as everyone else said, call them the right thing. Sawyer's sage green clothes are called "yellow"... :smiley21:

Oh, and the lighting in some of the stores is terrible, and I want to be able to try on entire new outfits without having to buy everything first (which is how it's done at the start too, so that method would fix that problem too). :)

Andrew 11-19-2008 05:06 PM

Good idea there, why not be a little "creative" while buying a shirt eh?

Dr. Zeppers 11-19-2008 05:24 PM

Um, I dont get it, where would you see the actual choice you made?

On your pirate? ;)

I assumed that was just what would replace the existing thing - your pirate would still be standing there.

Replace the text "Shirt 1" with a picture of Shirt 1, etc. The swatches of color/material would be in the box where it says "Color/Pattern". Similar to the way the color of skin/hair is available in the barber shops.

Dr. Zeppers 11-19-2008 05:36 PM

Oh, so instead of picking a shirt the color you want, pick a shirt, then pick a color..

Although I can guess why they dont, because not all shirts/clothing items are available in all the colors! (unlike the starter cloths). Such an interface would sorta knock off the unique items approach from a certain perspective. But would add other options maybe providing for some more unique combinations. <shrug>

I wear what it gave me when I started, and what I quest for...

Wish they'd get the colors straightened out.

Sarah 11-19-2008 06:07 PM

I Like the idea a lot. And the suggestion to be able to try on an entire outfit before buying is a stupendous idea as well.

Sven Osymthe 11-19-2008 06:52 PM

Nice Idea. As said above we should be able to choose the color, try on an entire outfit, and have more clothing slots.....4 isn't enough now since the clothing quests took up 3/4 and your starting outfit takes up the other. Found myself having to sell a lot of those clothes from the quests that took a while to work on!

anndreeuhh 11-19-2008 06:59 PM

What Sven said. All I have left is my Barbossa coat, the hats and belts, and Callecutters boots. Disney kinda ripped us off with the clothing quests.

Yes please.
