I'd like to see a feature that allows better management and organization of inventory items. Working with two inventory windows can be difficult at times, especially when you have a ton of items to sort through.

An offline inventory manager would be very, very helpful. That way I could organize without being in-game and bothered by other people. Plus, a sandbox along with the inventory manager would be helpful for opening boxes, trying on clothes, checking out new gadgets, etc.

I know I could just go to an in-game sandbox and test things out there, but a lot of times I just want to manage and organize my inventory, deleting everything unnecessary. That's a lot of load on my PC/Laptop just to organize and explore folders.

Hope this makes sense! :)

Kind Regards,

The offline inventory manager has been suggested a lot, I simply don't think it's a logical choice unless it's its own external application, and in that case you might as well just log in. While I do agree that inventory in-game should probably be fixed in some way, I imagine sending out inventory lists is a very, very taxing process on the servers and having people be able to log in and request it over and over again easily is probably not good news.

I'm so sick of the current inventory interface. I'm not sure if what I really want is an external inventory management program, but I would like to see the entire inventory interface redone from the ground up.

Yeah, maybe an external inventory program is more trouble than it's worth. Rebuilding it from the ground up is a good idea. What frustrates me is that any time I get a landmark or notecard, their respective folders are opened automatically in my inventory. Keep my folders closed unless I open them! (Whew. I feel better now.)

Another Inventory Suggestion

I'd be happy to even see an option to create additional tabs in your inventory so that you can organize things a bit better, using folders alone does not help once your inventory goes over 2k or so.
