Inventory suggestion! Make it more accessible!

Unsure if this has been posted before but here goes, you need to make the Inventory viewable from the lobby menu! Too many people leave and lose spots, empty servers, etc after every game just to check for crates.

This should be viewable and editable from the Lobby screen so we don’t have to potentially kill a server or lose your spot and have to wait ten minutes to join another server after every game to view our crates! Not sure how easy or difficult this would be for you guys to implement but it’s just something I feel is somewhat needed. (also, a queuing system for servers but i know you guys already know about that!)

Definitely posted before but definitely a good suggestion too! What I also would like to see is the server browser being available while being in the lobby. For example, when playing objective while waiting for a stopwatch server to open up a slot or fill up, I don’t want to disconnect and reconnect.

On the subject of menus, can we please get a system where textures for menu assets are pre-loaded? Running from an SSD, it takes 2-3 seconds for the class selection to populate, and going through pages of inventory is painfully slow.

Yup, we feel your pain but it was necessary for testing purposes. There is a caching system in place to alleviate that pain, however it was turned off for this build while we test that worst case scenario performance.

Good to know! … But it’s probably my top gripe with DB right now :stuck_out_tongue:

2-3 sec waiting time is your top gripe? : P

All of my other “top-ish” issues are either balance-related (Which is expected) or latency-related, which can’t really have anything done about them (Short of having more than two AU servers and having more AU players :P)

I hope inventory pages don’t stay as small as they are now
