To create a more streamlined experience, instead of invalidating suits when some of its components have run dry, the user interface should ask if the user would like to restock the suit to have at least 1 of every module.
This way, you could go and buy a batch of items, or just purchase one of each and at each spawn you'll be warned about the cost to reuse the suit one more time.
Accessing the regular user interface while in game can be a bit slow, and some times I try to restock while bleeding out and I run out of time and the interface closes so I have to go back to the menus. |

I think some of you are missing the point.
Yes you can already restock mid match, in my opening post I stated the interface to restock as it is right now is a bit slow, and could be streamlined closer to the interface where you pick a loadout.
You can plan ahead, but if you ever run into a suit that's INVALID you should be able to restock it just there, instead of being denied the posibility, now you have to:
0 INVALID fitting
1 cancel,
2 click a button to open the menu,
3 select fittings,
4 select infantry,
5 select the suit,
6 select restock, press right a few times...
7 click accept,
8 close the menu and then you can use your suit
I propose a method to jump from 0 to 6 in less than 5 seconds, so fast it should be illegal. |

Its more about discipline, newer gamers are a little bit lazy, thats the real problem. I agree as well in EVE before even if your mission running you have to setup your ship with proper fittings to each mission situation, type of enemy , armor and weapon vulnerability if they use jammers, etc.
Sure, but how often do you lose your ships while doing missions? your analogy would apply to dust when you don't die, but instead run to a supply depot to grab another suit according to the situation.
In dust, you will be losing your items often, so an easier way to restock is not too much to ask for.

I know you can restock mid battle.
The request is to streamline the process so you can restock right when you're picking a dropsuit. |

If I want to mess around with the market while my team needs me to take an objective then I deserve an unwieldy interface to stop me from doing it. If my fitting will not work for the desired goal I get in a dropship or tank or lav to make up for the deficiency in my foresight. IMHO the battlefield is not the place to be purchasing a new set of sneakers people.
Then completely remove the ability to restock mid game. |

Wow I can't believe at how angry people get here at making better UI designs.
Look, let's close this deal, if we agree this UI tweak is not needed then CCP SHOULD ENTIRELY REMOVE THE ABILITY TO RESTOCK MID BATTLE. period.
If their suit becomes invalid, though luck, they should grab a militia suit.
Now you're so freaking hardcore because you're a stockpiling god and you'll have an upper hand on those lower newbies who aren't as good as you.
God, I solved it, case closed, let's move on. |

Besides, if we bring the player market into the table, the ability to restock fast and easy will be a nice source of income to traders.
Picture this, there's are some players fighting it out in an area where the market is a bit scarce, you might put up a few popular items with a higher profit margin.
The market should not just be balanced for buyers, streamlining the interface would benefit the sellers too. |
