General Discussion - Auction house - Forum

" MortalKombat3 a écrit : " t0lkien a écrit : Chris has many times outlined why he will never implement an AH, and he's right in his assessment. He's seen and understood what it does to a game like PoE. Nope, he's wrong. <snip indulgent ramble> Well, as he's got a little more experience than you in actual hands on with this stuff and a lot more invested in getting it right, I'm more inclined to listen to him. But most of this discussion is missing the point. The reason for not implementing an AH has nothing to do with economy, and everything to do with the social interconnectedness of the game. Once you have an AH you lose people visiting each other's Hideouts, random link ups that generate ingame friendships, and a thousand other subtle social spinoffs that trickle down to touch almost every other feature of the gameplay, and keep the game from becoming no more than a single player market simulator. Chris understands that. An AH would kill the community and trickle down to kill the game. There is no economy without community.

" MasterAxe a écrit : Exchanging items of no worth to them, for ingame cuurency so you can buy items you want or need. For some just the building of ingame wealth is all they desire. Some may enjoy haggling prices, which i would always want to be kept in trading. Nobody enjoys having to stop what they are doing, forced to go back to HO, find an item and trade, IF the buyer even comes, which half the time someone else answered them, because all traders have had to resort to spamming(i used to block players that trade spammed). That's my point though, saying "I love trading", while wanting it to be a one-click adventure is weird. It's like the people saying they "love" the lab, while they hate everything but the rewards in the end. There's tons of improvement they could do with trade, and I'm all for a lot of them. Auction house? No. Automated trade? No. What I want, is a little notification somewhere on the screen, telling you you have a sale/trade pending. Pressing this notification pops up a menu - no matter where you are - where you get three choices: Accept, decline or a haggle option. How this would work in practice with item transportation, I'm not sure of. What bothers me, are these "either/or, black/white, everything/nothing" millennials; "I DEMAND an AH, everything else is crap". Bring me some coffee and I'll bring you a smile.

While I agree there's tons of improvements they could do with trade, it's a question more of what will fix the biggest issues. And please don't blame the tide pod eaters, they're sorting themselves out as it were.	Posté par jtggm1985#3694 le 1 août 2019 à 00:55:25 Citer ce post

Oh, maybe we should make party play more enjoying and rewarding then? ATM playing in party feels awful due to PoE's "oneshot all screen and run at supersonic speed" playstyle. BTW, i think, that in order to let players interact more and show MTXes to each other, a game should have far more multiplayers aspects. Like MMORPG.

All i truly want is exactly that at the very least. A trade that works like that, no forced going to HO or join groups. I have asked for something just like that many times in the forums. However i am also for a buyout system if done right, though i feel this if NOT done right could be very easily manipulated by players. But i need something, i hate trade so much anymore, can barely play. IGN:Axe_Crazy	Posté par MasterAxe#6129 le 2 août 2019 à 10:53:44 Citer ce post
" MasterAxe a écrit : Some may enjoy haggling prices, which i would always want to be kept in trading. " MasterAxe a écrit : However i am also for a buyout system if done right Very hard to implement both of these with success. Anyhow, the nightmare for me, is instant trading. I like playing the game. I'm one of those that NEVER feel forced to trade. I will NEVER spend 30 minutes "trying to trade" instead of playing the game. I like playing too much. I look VERY strangely on people saying "But, but, I don't want to spend my time trading, I want to play the game". THEN PLAY THE GAME! Needless to say, I like the game and I like the in-game progression. Maybe A LOT of people would, if they weren't too hellbent on trading for everything the second they got "stuck". Anyhow, what will happen to this in-game progression the moment they implement instant trading? Every decision/addition/balance in the future will be made with instant trading in mind? That's scary. Both for the in-game progression and drop rates of everything. Bring me some coffee and I'll bring you a smile.	Posté par Phrazz#3529 le 2 août 2019 à 11:06:58 Citer ce post

There are so many threads about this but GGG has stated that there will not do this. But I would LOVE a AH of some short as the trading system IS garbage right now and open to Scammers and price fixers. But GGG wont do it :(	Posté par MrSidious#1498 le 2 août 2019 à 14:42:08 Citer ce post
