No to COSMIC TRADE

Let everyone do it on their own, not pass or trade.

Keep it a WAR GAME not a TRADER game.

For knocking people out of ascension I think there should be some sort of reward, like getting 2.5% of their stuff or something. And you shouldn't be allowed to deascend someone unless they're close to your rank, or all the newbs will be slaughtered.

Well hopefully, that's what Kills is for, maybe it's a "get out of forced descension free card."

And you shouldn't be allowed to deascend someone unless they're close to your rank, or all the newbs will be slaughtered.

Love the idea, but rank means so little - there are noobs that can get to mid-100s range after as little as a month, if not even less, and trust me, when descension comes out, they wouldn't stand a chance against some of the heavy hitters hanging around those ranks. Key thing to keep in mind is that ascended levels play absolutely no role in determining your rank (other than covert/assassin/defense/attack lvls), while they would have a huge factor in determining who wins a descension battle.

i agree, no to cosmic trade. i dont want SS either.
im still after de-ascension tho, that would be cool if managed correctly.

I think that that is the general concensious between most everyone. Descension= we want; cosmic trade= we don't want.

Who says SS is going to be there when the Market comes? Come on people, it was said a long time ago NO PPT's. Hmm. Theres a large differnce between SS and a Market. I'm not going to explain it. I'll take a Market I do not care, I'll go without it as well, I think it will be there on day though.

[REK]

why do you need ss...

[goldenh]

I like the market because it lets me buy ATs.. then it' is really Stargate Wars and not Progress Wars :p

No, with a market it becomes StargateTraders.

I like the fact that you have to wait for the turns to build up. It forces you to choose your targets wisely, and make sure that you save some to retaliate when you are attacked. There is definately a lot of strategy involved in the best use of the turns.

In main, its become a farming/raiding game ever since turns have become so readily available. The market has made it way too easy to get turns, and has drastically changed the dynamic of the game. Lets face it, its unnatural for someone to burn through 10K+ turns a day.

I hope the same thing doesn't happen in ascension, and that Cosmic trade never gets implemented.

[Virgil]

Well Said Saab,

I don't want to see a Market Place was to come in ascension period. (even though I am against it totally and I probably could benefit from it more than anyone in my current situation). I think it will remove the unique feel to ascension totally.

[KGC]

As long as there is no SS, I see no problem with a cosmic market. It will allow for more playing styles. No SS means no abuse. It's not because the market would be there, that you would have to use it. Only problem I see will be getting the initial exchange rates fair and balanced.
