Ability to preview any Fashion / Weapon

    Would you like a change to the cash shop? 103

    1. Yes (99) 96%
    2. No (1) 1%
    3. I don't care either way (3) 3%

    A lot of games have the option to "try on" or "preview" gear in the cash shop and just from a regular vendor.

    I honestly love this type of feature in mmorpgs and I feel like Soulworker is lacking this option, not that its a big deal or anything. Its mainly just to plan out outfits you want to try out, more of a convenience so you don't have to waste all your materials and money on something that looks worse than you were thinking it was going to be.

    What is everyone's opinion on this? I know there was a few posts on just the preview for the cash shop (which would be nice), but i'd love to have it on every item not just the cash shop. (different versions of the game have different shops, and for some reason we are stuck with the worst one.)





    Heres an example of the cash shop we have in NA and EN:

    Heres an example of the cash shop they have in Korea (theres a comment on this post further down with a video on it):

    Heres an example of the Japanese version (older version, thanks Zavi for info):

    Display Spoiler

    Heres the cash shop TERA has ingame (note that tera is also a steam game and doesn't have to go through a steam overlay):

    Display Spoiler

    In conclusion, I would love if NA and EN servers had the types of cash shops Japan or Korea has. And by giving the option to preview fashion before any purchase will make more people buy cash shop items, which means a better income for Gameforge. (thanks Nitros, Etsuya, Nyx and Kazumi for giving me ideas on how to make this thread better ^^)

    Also any info/ideas or comments related to this would be greatly appreciated, thanks if you read all that xD.


    So my questions are,

    1. Where is our ingame cash shop/when will we get one?

    2. Why does the cash shop NEED to be in steam overlay and how come we can't preview ANY fashion from the cash shop or any blueprints?

    problem is that other versions have this feature you speak of.

    Yepyep just saying it'd be a cool feature.

    Edit: I'm not talking about strictly cash shop either, i'm talking about through the crafting menu as well as cash shop

    i would love to have it here as well so i can decide if this outfit is cute or not. Sadly we are going to be stuck with stock images. No crazy mix and matching of outfits. It actually gets fun to see the amount of cosplay that people can do with the available fashion pieces out in the game. It is something i actually look forward to from others.

    Was going to say I'm pretty sure they have this feature in all the other versions so I'm not quite sure what went wrong? Add this in pls.

    Guessing this cash shop is temporary for the beta... I hope lol.

    I am absolutely sure this is not a temporary cash shop. Other Gameforge games have the same kind of shop system and have been running for years. TERA and Nostale are good examples.


    Ontopic - I agree. For the cash shop, having to buy more or less blind is really painful. I wish I could preview blueprints. There's some fashion you can aquire for free in the game, but mostly via blueprints. So having a way to preview them would be honestly great. Fashion is all I live for in games.

    Yes this has to do with cash shop, not crafting blueprints though.

    but but.. but why?

    this is a feature that exists already in other versions, why can't NA have it too, just cuz they decided to change the cash shop ui for.. no reason lol?

    pls tell me there's a more logical explanation to this

    I think its impossible due to steam overlay

    People on GF have the same type of cash shop and can't preview anything right? Honestly instead of using steam or something why don't they just use the cash shop they had in the previous ones lol. It just seems illogical to me since i've seen a lot of other mmorpgs on steam do it without steam overlay.

    I have to be honest, i'm really disappointed by this Shop, and honestly there are so many games on STEAM that can open the normal cash shop... i mean look at the korean revamped one, it's so beautifull. Here

    I'll be honest. I want to see how something looks before buying it. I won't buy it unless I saw how it locks. That means I want to see the ingame modle and be able to rotate it. This simply is a must have and greatly influences my decisions to buy something.


    If you can't do it due to Steam, I don't care. Make it exclusive to the standalone client then. This is much more important then Steam support. At least for me.
