Does anybody else feel like it's kinda clunky and harder to use?
I like the filtering idea, but the problem is that every time i go to look for a item i feel like i have to click a bunch of different catagories just to get there...
Before you had a general purpose for the items, so you can click and see all the items, find the one you want, done.
Now it's just like well i gotta think what i want and fillter it than if i want something else i gotta unfilter and do it again
EDIT:
For those who don't know, you can click on the title of the catagory, etc "Attack Damage" instead of the filter check box to get ALL of the AD items. As well, there is a view mode to change it back to the squares, similar to the shop before the patch.
However, i believe that view should be the default, not the optional.
EDIT:
Crazylazybum mentioned a resizing of the shop window i tended to agree with that, maybe the UI isn't the sparkling thing Riot thinks it is?
Let's try to keep this the post to talk about Item Shop and/or UI, it already has the riot tech. designer posting!
The issue is. In the old one you clicked on a thing. Then another thing. Then it just showed items. On this one you click on a category but you still see the categorys. Which take up the whole shop... So its harder to find items as they are in a single file line on the side.
You can turn on grid view in the store if you prefer a more compressed view.
is there any way to let us customize recommended items? like we can choose 6 items and place them in the recommended slots so as to access them more quickly
We've not provided a tool for it as of yet, but the API does support customization. I believe there's another post detailing exactly how to change them.
But shouldn't the options that made the other shop easier be the default? I woulda have prefered that the filtering options and the scroll view be the optional, not the default.
Again, i'm not saying it's completely terrible or a bad idea, i just think it could have been cleaned up a little.
Well, I don't think the grid view is easier for players new to the game. You have to weigh that experience as well.
The Item Shop (not the items)
