Market feature

[Spidpex]

Hey guys!

I came up with something pretty cool, most MMO's out there already has it, and its a Market function, simply a tab, where you can put items up for an auction, and people can search7filter for items and find those items in that window, and buy it directly from there.

Whacha think of the idea folks?

I think it would kill the unique set stall, where people need to look for "gem" by checking stalls one by one.

Actually. We would like to make Player Item submitted auctions.
But it's still not decided. If it will be, and what kind of auction is should be.

If you are thinking about an auction on web mall, then "No". (just like the auction on PKO server before)

I do agree with Spidex's suggestion though. +1

Not Auction you mostly used to see everywhere =)
There was two ideas:
# Bidding fee auction
# Dutch auction
Both are good.
But first one is more like a gamble, and probably will be implemented to offload gold from players.
While "Dutch auction" is a better choice to sell items fast for a reasonable price, and probably for rum.

It's still not decided, and the subsystem that should handle them is in development.

As for Market Feature.
I think there is a big chance, that we will make a "Market Assistant".
That helps players search items they need for a fair amount of gold.
Player would pay only if Item is found on market stalls, and show their average weighted sold price for the last week/month.

Dutch Auctions sounds better, Bidding fee auction is good too but not a good idea to release at this point.
Market Feature seems a big task but this was the idea.
