Remove Fallback inventory please

Recommended Posts

It's damn annoying trying to refresh your backpack and it spits out a fallback inventory where you can't list new items, item tags also seem to be gone here. I'll hover over somebodies backpack and have to go to there inventory from like a day ago to see the tags, it's so annoying.

It's annoying as hell. I've literally tried refreshing R+ubi's inventory for 2 god damn hours in order to make some certain buy orders of his appear again, and guess what happened? Nothing, literally. So nerve killing and unnecessary, ngl.

The problem is that we're limitted to certain number of resreshes. I think we can refresh inventory once every 5 mins, if we don't have premium. Like I have said before, non-premium users shouldn't be punished because there's currently no connection to the TF2 inventories API. Everyone should be able to instantly refresh inventory after there's a connection and not wait for 5 more minutes. That's how it works on sites like bazaar.tf (tf2outpost while it was still alive), tf2items.com, etc.

I reckon they should sack the limit and allow LIMITLESS refreshes. Or, at the very least increase the limit because I have premium and my inventory just refuses to reload.

Afaik the limit is imposed by steam, so bp.tf can't really do anything about the situation.

 

They could introduce an option to ignore the fallback though and show the unupdated backpack.

i have premium and i've been waiting 4 hours for my backpack to refresh, premium doesnt change anything
 

i imagine there are issues with the API that need to be resolved.

This literally already exists? You just click "Show Last Good Inventory" next to the Fallback notification.

It's been particularly bad for the past few weeks, most times only loads fallback.

I've not been able to load my backpack today at all to list something, 6 hours later, still no joy.

 

:p

How is it annoying? Would you rather have a "Failed to load" inventory all the time instead?

 

be better than fallback?
