4.) Players would feel more comfortable trading through the auction house due to all of the above reasons.
5.) Larger quanities of ATs, UU and Naq available for everyone, also applying to #2.
* additionaly because the current method requires players to use the forums to trade this method would cause more trades through a larger participation.
so these aren't good reasons?
1 - Why shouldn't it be available?
2 - More competitive than already being able to sell/trade at any price you want?
3 - How?
4 - No - because the points are invalid.
5 - How? besides, large amounts of AT is not good for the game.
1 - Its not good business, players should not be manipulating others for their own growth. Why should it be available?
2- Whould have more people trading then now because there is a large % of players who are not in alliances nor participate in the forums, and are more likely unaware. Therefor more competition to sell merchandise.
3 - Whould have more people trading then now because there is a large % of players who are not in alliances nor participate in the forums, and are more likely unaware.
4 - Only from your perspective. How is having more people trading not a valid point? How are any of the 5 reasons I provided not valid?
5 - Through more participation in a market that would be visable and available in a game menu. You said yourself this is a war game, how does a more frequent supply of ATs make it worse?
Now that I have respectfully anwsered your questions please anwser mine.
Another benefit this would bring
6.) A more organized, easier to view, and safer system.
a.) More organized - Because its provided as a in-game menu, you dont have to travel else where to find trade, nor wait for brokers. Each type of resource would have its coresponding menu.
b.) Easier to view - Instead of scroll through threads looking for deals that have already been closed or have to wait for a broker cause the trader is offline, there is no need, trades are instant if bought out, and pending if bid on.
c.) Safer system - Names are annyomous, people won't be knowing who you are trading with, therefor if a auction expired or was bid on and cleared their would be less worry as to players having knowledge of this.
If your going to say something is invalid at least express an opinion as to why, likewise when I said your point was invalid I supplied a reasoning.
Also how come you have avoided every question I have asked? Is there some sort of reasoning as to why you can't supply an anwser?
