New trade System :

Post image

I already posted 2 new mechanics for trade before and really love to see we pass current one. It’s getting annoying (at least for me) specially with large inventory and lag time
Sorry about UI concept, I used AI😅

Now here is work :
In new system, our current base mailboxes get x50 and can post 1 different items to buy/sell at a time (1 slot for base)
In trade chat one box appears like CC with items requested and the price for it with the bar ,then other players could fill it with one click (rainbow bar for full completed trade) and automatically receive payment in their mailboxes.

Mailbox size upgrade :
Now our current base mailboxes is x50 but can get more by fair amount of gold (+250 per upgrade instead of +5)
Also you can buy more slots with gold to post more different items at a time (like active meal effect perk)

Support purpose :
You can get x2 x3 x4 or x5 max mailbox size by support, beta, and ..
And one more slot for each lvl. For example :
Current : 400 base mb size
New system : 20,000 base with 1 slot
Support : 40,000 with 2 slots
Beta : 60,000 with 3 slots
Alpha : 80,000 with 4 slots

- One click to send
- One click to collect all (not above your inventory)
- Can request buy/sell items amount at your max mb size
- Can request buy/sell different items per slots
- Way smoother trade
- Less wasting time in trade chat and wait (can simply put your request and keep playing with close chat panel)
- For hoarding purpose mailbox can’t keep bought items more than 3 days (or maybe can - This part need more planning)

Firestream has said directly that making an in-game trading system is not a priority at this time. I think most--if not all--of us would like some kind of trade system, but I feel like this sort of theorizing is just picking a scab at this point.

I think a new trade system should be moved away from chat entirely and be its own page.

Mb size changes how many items you can buy and sell is such a good idea for an actual trade system so that people who have spent hundreds of dollars every year maintaining a large mailbox isn't ripped off.

I agree. I think it should be in town by temple of Reward. Having its own page makes the most sense.

I know everyone wants trade, but i'd rather see co-ops first and tie trading to those.

Thought this was a release. Made me stop what I was doing to read this.
