This is a very annoying issue especially with the target who is running and you can not follow to either purchase or repair an item because you stop and they are out of range.

Thats not a bug. Moving while browsing bazaars is a feature that hasn't been implemented.

03-09-2011, 02:48 AMAlicia_WMThis bug was introduced in the third beta phase. In beta 2 and earlier you were able to move while viewing bazaar.Quote:

They really need to fix this. It has been a huge pet peeve since the third beta phase. I can also attest that this didn't happen in the earlier beta phases.

Agreed!
I've already had somebody wave me down because they wanted to purchase something from my bazaar.
I know there is a lot going on and maybe this went to the back burner but~~ ^^; Please fix this soon-ish. -

Really...? I don't remember that at all..
Not sarcasm. -

Ive had issues with this as well, its annoying when ur trying to buy something off someone and they run away, making you unable to buy it from them and/or lose sight of the person making it impossible to buy from them :(

This drives me insane, I dont even look now unless everyones on a stand still

Somewhat related: I'd like to be guaranteed I'll be able to repair something from a bazaar as long as I have their bazaar window open (unless they log out, cross to another zone, etc.) I'm tired of people running away 5 seconds too early.

03-09-2011, 01:38 PMDravenThat's when you /say /tell /shout something to them. They're likely to stop ;)Quote:

This also annoys me to no end. I'd like to see what someone has for sale without having us both stop what we were doing for long enough for me to figure out they are just using their bazaar for extra inventory space. It's a small waste of both parties' time.

03-09-2011, 10:10 PMLaike100% my thoughts.... drives me insane... I used to do that all the time in 11. Makes me made everytime I go to check a bazaar.Quote:

Are you guys serious? Cmon this is not a bug. It is a feature of the game. Stop whining about insignificant crap. This isn't a fast food joint where you can buy your stuff on the go. It functions the exact same was as buying from a vendor. I know you can find something else to bring up of use on these new forums. Don't waste a good thing.

This is very annoying! I hope SE will change the situation and let us move while checking bazaars!

Hello everyone!
Sorry for all the frustration you have been going through because of the Bazaar inconveniences. The thread was moved over from In-Game Bugs to General Discussion. That area is also used for any feedback or suggestions anyone has. I will be looking forward to a change in that system, so let's all get our voices heard (or texts seen, whichever works)!

This has become an issue for me a couple of times. Especially when someone has something awesome in their bazaar that I want to buy and they are running away from me. Like an idiot I have to chase them and hope that they stop.
-

I think it should be changed also. Move while browsing Bazaar.
I however agree that it should not be on the top of the list.
One day though get to it if you can.
Ty~ -
03-15-2011, 08:18 AMPaksenarrionDefiantly agree with it not being on top of the list. But if they have time and can actually do it somewhere in the future. That would be nice.Quote:

I'm sure it has already been said, but this also happens when checking someone's equipment.

I would love to see free movement while browsing a bazaar. I also would like to see some kind of prompt for bazaar owner to tell them somebody is looking through their stuff, so they can stop moving for repairs/purchases like in XI "BazaarBuyer begins to browse your wares." or something similiar.
-
03-15-2011, 10:03 AMKarbineYou know I haven't had a problem checking peoples equipment...its always allowed me free movement actually.Quote:

I am in agreement that freedom to move while checking a bazaar would be a great feature to add. The issue isn't necessarily a gripe as it is a method in which players can interact. Since, people are defensive of making FF14 like FF11, my suggestion is merely one that allows for the interactions between players. I will always give a fellow the player a second to browse my wares if I had any idea someone was doing so. The subtleties in player's interactions are determined by the level of communication we are given in which to interact. 'So and so' is browsing your wares command message would allow me to stop what i am doing and maybe meet someone new, strike up a conversation, instead of walking away wondering if anyone has any interest in getting to know other players. It would be a good move considering the lack of interaction we now face due to miscalculated need(s) for social interaction. BTW, Because a feature in FF11 was a good tool doesn't make this game FF11, it is merely an observation and acknowledgment that what made FF11 so addictive were the subtle things that made for pure enjoyment. I'd rather not have to chase someone or yell at them to stop; I am much more polite than that.Thanks^^

It's not a bug. Our in game characters are just THAT dumb. They stop to put their weapon away, they stop again to take it back out! They stop to raise the shield, they stop again to drop the shield! They stop to put on a hat, they stop again to put on pants! They stop to chew gum, they don't move while chewing gum!

03-15-2011, 12:41 PMRentahamster[suggestion] Give me an option to check all the bazaars in the vicinity at once
I agree with the forced stopping of player movement. It's annoying and it gives me less of a reason to check bazaars in the first place.
An option I would like to see is the ability to check the bazaar of every player character who is currently loaded onto my area. If they are in /say range, I want to see their bazaar.
It could be displayed just as one giant inventory list, with tabs to organize item types and a listing of seller and price.
This would be very handy, and encourage more buying and selling. -
03-16-2011, 11:48 AMBadJoeRed
I'm surprised nobody mentioned the fact that, IF you actually manage to get their bazaar to open while they are runing away, and you then make the purchase just before they are out of screen, you get the message that they are "too far" to make the purchase... >.>
There should not be a 'too far' message when buying from bazaars. -
03-16-2011, 12:58 PMKilta_Firelotus
here is a fix...
ask then to stop. And pretty sure there is an auto translate for stop or wait. and bazaar.
Sorry i like the player stop. when bazaar cheaking the latter was annoying for the bazaar owner. If yiu not willing to communicate why even play mmo. -
03-16-2011, 02:48 PMRoxy
bring back the short cut to check player ctrl+c like FFXI

What if you don't remember their name, how would you be able to tell them to stop? This has happened to me a lot. If it at least put up names of people you check in your chat logs, this would help me out. Also if I had a bazaar open, I would like a message saying someone has checked my bazaar. I don't mind stopping for people if I knew

But the prompt that someone is looking through your stuff would be very nice :) sometimes I run and then I see someone was actually buying things XD
