In the thick of battle, decisions in Smite can have far-reaching consequences that aren’t always desirable. A Reddit post by user xXNovusXx recently addressed this, specifically targeting the functionality of the ‘undo button’ in the game’s item shop.

Summary

  • xXNovusXx and others have expressed dissatisfaction with the ‘undo button’ mechanics in Smite.
  • They propose changes to its function, particularly allowing it to undo the last action only instead of all actions.
  • The community largely supports this, proposing various alternative mechanics.

Community Feedback

Many Smite players understand the frustration xXNovusXx expressed. LootaNR voiced agreement, as did NotaVortex, who wholeheartedly concurred.

Alternative Solutions

Other community members provided innovative solutions. One proposed by Lordralien suggested two behaviours for the button: press to undo the last action and hold to undo all. NoOneHeree echoed a similar sentiment, proposing two separate buttons to serve these functionalities.

Experience Informs Opinion

Dowino- singled himself out as an old-timer, reminiscing about when he first suggested the idea of an undo button. This veteran player affirmed that a single click should undo the latest change, just as it works in word processing software.

Ultimately, the community appears to rally behind the notion that the ‘undo button’ should echo its real-world counterparts, in which undo doesn’t necessarily mean undo all. Maybe Smite’s developers will take this under consideration. After all, the sting of a mislaid shopping spree shouldn’t last the entire match!
