Try a Travel Before Purchasing

midinite • 22 August 2015 at 10:06 PM

So I was at the Travel Agency buying a new travel for one of my creatures, but I wasn't sure if it would look good or not on it.

I think it would be nice if we could be able to try the travel on the creature before purchasing it, as travels are one-time items. Although we can try it on a creature after purchasing, if it doesn't look good, it's hard to resell a travel after you buy it.
I know there are one or two websites who can do this, but it would be more convenient if we could try it on before buying.

Thanks!

Oh, uh, didn't see your comment before that though. XD
But I think I know what you were going to say. 😈

I agree. Whilst those websites do allow you to view before buting time, there is still the time loading the site, images and sorting through the travel lists. By which time the travel you wanted is probably sold out :/ It's happened to me before a couple of times.

It would be cute to have a kind of 'dressing room' on the selected travel's page 😋 (Like the trinket travel pages but you select creatures from your cove to show).

Hi, I agree but you already do that just here :

Have a nice day 😊

Actually that has been brought up a couple of times already, our point is that- even though these sites do exist...well...I just directly copied this from my last post:

"[...]there is still the time loading the site, images and sorting through the travel lists. By which time the travel you wanted is probably sold out :/"

The main issue is having to use external sites to do this. Using them is great when you are having an organised time for buying travels (Having tabs open for the bank, inventory, your cove, the shop, and eggcavity already open)- but if you are just happening to pass by the agency and you see a travel over 10k- you want to check it definitely looks good on your creature or a lot of EC would go down the drain...and while you are opening Eggcavity and putting in the details... *poof* 'sold out'. 90% of the time, this seems to be the case.

Hope that made sense, I try not to rant on too much about how I use this site 😋

@midinite I just wished Egg Cavern was still here. Yup, it's a good idea.

@ushafuse
Actually Egg Cavern is still here, just under the name of Egg Cavity instead. 😊

@midinite Egg Cavern is not Eggcavity. Eggcavity is not run by the same people as Egg Cavern was. They are different sites that had some common elements.

An onsite travel viewer is something that has been discussed by the team but is currently on the back burner while we work on other projects.

@Orderedchaos
Oh, okay, thank you for telling me that. 😊 I didn't really use either, so I thought they were the same thing. XD

Well that sounds good to me, the fact that an onsite travel viewer was even discussed makes me very happy. ^-^
