Guild Wars 2

Is this a bug or a shameful oversight in development that went unnoticed before release? If its the latter, then why has it not been fixed? I hope something is being done pronto to fix this, not being able to preview gear before buying it is not only annoying as hell but incredibly time consuming trying to cross-reference with scattered screenshots on forum posts. Seriously, fix this asap, I’ve probably spent more time searching for armor skin info online then actual gameplay time. Its bad enough something this big wasn’t addressed during beta testing but to not have this patched by now is just Epic Fail.

If you’re talking about not being able to preview items on the Trading Post, it’s coming eventually.

If you’re talking about from merchants, yes, we are able to preview gear before buying it from them. So if you can’t, I’d fill out a bug report.

It could help the economy out a bit, but I don’t think it’s life or death at the moment.

Definitely one of those annoying nuisances, but I def read a thread saying they were addressing it.

My guess is it’s directly related to the fact that the TP is web based.

P.S. you may want to change the thread title.

There aren’t that many models, a decent place to see them are here:

Never mind it says pvp, they are all the same. But I agree, it’s annoying all the same.
