SHOP: We NEED previews and descriptions
Okay, so I have two of the exact same helmet in my inventory. They're the same down to the gear level. One has a bonus I want, the other has a bonus I don't want. But I can't sell the correct one in the shop because there are literally no details or previews or descriptions of the item that will allow me to tell which helmet is which.
Sorry, but that's 100% unacceptable and ridiculous. I don't need the material from dismantling the unneeded one, I want the money from selling it. But I can't sell it because I might sell the wrong one. And there's no buyback system like in the Division so if I sell the wrong one I'm stuck.
This is also a problem because once you hit the higher gear levels almost every weapon or piece of gear has some kind of bonus...but we're not allowed to know what it is before we waste money on it. Why should we buy items from the shop when we have no clue what the bonus stats are? It's 100% unacceptable and ridiculous.
WHY FOR THE LOVE OF CATS AND ALL THAT'S HOLY WOULD YOU LEAVE SUCH A FUNCTIONAL AND NECESSARY PART OF THE COMMERCE PROCESS OUT OF THE GAME?! Please tell me this is going to be added/enabled for the full release?
Less annoying, but still annoying, is the fact that we can't preview tattoos and other cosmetic items. In the closed beta I bought an emote from the shop just to see what emotes are like in Breakpoint. It didn't even match the description and was a complete disappointment on top of being a huge waste of Skellbux. If I'd had a preview of the emote I might have been able to make an informed choice about what I was getting. If you can take take one thing from the Division, it's that the skin/clothing/emote preview system in both games is top notch. You could stand to learn something in that regard.
