It would be nice to have a section of the forums dedicated to guides. It would make them a lot easier to find when they are needed. I can also see it be a huge help for new players looking for information on how to play the game effectively.


I agree with this idea. Currently the site discussion board is used when doing guides, but this can easily get clogged up and guides are always welcome and going to be needed.

I don't know if it's been suggested yet, but unless I'm completely missing it there doesn't seem to be a search bar for the auctions and it would be incredibly helpful to have one when looking for a specific item instead of sifting through pages of a category or a rarity instead

I can see a sort feature at the top of my page when going to the auctions. I am able to sort by item, colour, rarity etc. It’s at the top, a row of orange buttons to select, and under them a couple of drop down selections to choose from.

If this is missing on yours could this be a bug? If so, it might be worth mentioning it in the bug thread and let them know what browser and system you use.

Oh no I actually have that, what I meant is a specific search bar feature where you can type out the name of the item as to not go through lists of different items with the same rarity, colour, etc...

Oh, okay, I get what you mean now, although I personally find that the current search function works okay for me. The search reduces the list to a managable amount usually. I don’t know if that will change as the site becomes more popular.

It would be nice if the search option automatically went back to default/all items when you leave the page. Sometimes you might forget you’ve got the search feature set on something for example, and would be missing out on other items added to the auctions.

I feel like some users must not be understanding the site layout, or at least not the market. I do think the ability to search for a specific item via search bar will not only be invaluable but necessary as the site grows and more and more auctions fill the market. It’s not so bad right now, skimming through a few pages of evobar ingredients, but imagine a year down the road, when three pages becomes 30, or more.

A search bar you can type the item’s name into is absolutely needed.

Small thing, but since there is a cost to changing names I think a confirmation for naming a pet could be helpful if people accidentally screw up entering the name they want

I've only just started but I don't think naming is going to be a super frequent thing so I wouldn't think it would be too intrusive

I did a dumb and somehow must have missed the text entry box entirely / was sort of expecting it to take me to another page so my first pet unintentionally had the default name :P - Probably because I just came from dragon cave where it feels like they make you confirm absolutely everything even though there's no restrictions on name changes

When the site has enough adoptables that can be found all year round, I would like to add my support to the idea of seeing special event adoptables.

Available to find for a set period and the find rate also higher because of the short period that they are findable .

It would be great to celebrate PixPets opening day each year with a special adoptable for example.

I would LOVE special event Pixpets! And if there's any worry that people who miss out might end up with an empty spot in their Pixdex, the special pets could reappear every time an event happens. (So, for example, a special Valentine's Day Pixpet could be findable during the Valentine's Day event every year.)

I saw that so far 3 people skipped the first house upgrade and bought the second. Maybe the price of the first one should be lowered just a little bit to give people more of a reason to buy it? Earning 1030 Pixcoins might not be easy for a beginner either, so that could be discouraging.

I'm not so sure about this. I'm all for special Pixpets and items during events, but what ticks me off the most about exclusives is simply because they are exclusive. You have to wait a whole year till you can get it again. An event shop where prices are much higher would be great if exclusives ever come to be. Most likely if there is one, PPT would be the way to go if you missed them or maybe around 150PC per exclusive when the event ends.


Also, I think a favorite color system for profiles would be nice! Pixpets and colors are a recurring theme in this site and it would be cool to know what color items people like to go for. The favorite color system would be the most proper way I guess to do this, it already includes almost every color that would be considered a favorite. Unlike the Pixdex, if the user picked neutral it would still show as their favorite color. So users that have multiple favorite colors, or don't have a favorite color have that choice.

Search bar for auctions would be great! Sometimes things are listed in recipes as just the name, but not item type, and it can be kind of tricky to find in the Market if you haven't seen it before.

Would also love a board just for guides. Some of the guide titles are not straight forward, so then I have to shuffle through them to find what I'm looking for.

Hopefully this hasn't been repeated too many times, but it would be lovely for the hoard cooldown time to be displayed in the sidebar like the hoard time is right now. (Ex. It says "Back in: [time]" at the moment.) Since I'm forgetful, it would be helpful if I didn't have to keep checking my 'recovering from hoarding' pixpets' profiles to see how much time they have left before they could hoard again, but if it could be displayed there too, like "Recovered in: [time]" or something of the sort. It may make the process go more quickly.

I have a few suggestions for the forum!

- If you add unicode by accident, ctrl-z doesn't undo it and you have to delete it by hand, so fixing that could save someone 2 seconds lol

- Adding unicode means the typing bar goes out of focus and you have to click the text box to continue typing your post. Would be nice if your typing bar would appear between the brackets so that you could start typing in that specific font right away.

I would like to second the suggestion for confirming the pet name, or making the UI easier to understand. I accidentally named my first pet "Unicubb" because I assumed the "Name Pet" button was just to open up a dialogue to name the pet...

I only skimmed this thread so forgive me for repeating if someone had already mentioned it.

As a new player, my first goal was to buy a new house to get more pets to send to hoards and get the game pick up pace for me. When I looked at the Buy New House page, I see the base price listed and assumed that that's the price I have to go for at least. I didn't check further the first time, so when I saved up for the 250, I was slightly frustrated (mostly confused) when the house wasn't actually the base price but 1030 total.

The thing that got me was I couldn't buy the house at the base price. I had assumed that maybe I could buy it at the base price and upgrade per block, based on how the stat table is laid out with the "20PC/10PC per block". Quite discouraged that I couldn't do that, and felt mislead. Maybe I'm getting ahead of a system to place later, but it's just a tad misleading and kinda frustrating. I'd recommend just putting the total price instead of the base price for now.

It's been a slow grind for money, especially since I'm not much of a forum interaction person and I haven't really been lucky in terms of hoard returns and auctions (since it's a new market, all natural course of a game). I have no issues grinding and building money, but I personally think it would be better to just be upfront about the total price instead of listing the base price without the option to buy it and scale up slowly as you go.

Ouch! 250 isn’t the actual price for the first house? Yeah, that’s an issue; this site suffers from a lot of UI issues. It’s difficult for new players to understand and frustrating to use, but I didn’t want to just say that without providing examples, so there’s an example lol. I’m actually not even sure where to find the information that says the 250 price isn’t the actual price of the house. If that were more clear, it would be much better, but as things stand now, it’s easy to mistake 250 for the intended price.

Housing > Buy New House > See Details. You see the total price tag there.

I'm guessing it's for realism, like the tax on auctioned goods.

Thanks! I spied it when I visited the housing page again earlier this morning. I think it's notable that it's been confusing for a few new users, but definitely not exactly a high priority--up with the rest of the UI/UX complaints I guess.
