I honestly don't care what the Price is, hell they can even put a lower limit cap on Items (In conjunction with the Ducat Prices or something)
I just want a better interface than IRC Chat... This isnt 1990 anymore.
Its not difficult to sell/buy things because the prices are wrong... Its difficult to sell/buy things because by the time you have written out your "WTS or WTB" there are another 20 messages that pop up under yours pushing yours off the first page hence making it go unnoticed.
What we have isnt a buyers or sellers market, its a messy clutter of people shouting random things that make you eventually walk out the door without buying anything.
If we don't buy anything then what is the point of buying Platinum in the first place ? Boosters & Profile Icons apparently.
-
Ah yes, more attempts from "buyers" to push prices down by encouraging grind, selling "efficiency", and a buyer's market so they can buy Ash Prime for 12 plat instead of paying DE money to develop the game.
I honestly don't think so.
Its just that the current Trading system really is rubbish and looks like it was developed by someone from the Stone Age...
I dunno if you're aware but it is now 2015 and better interfaces do exist.
-
Anything would be better than the current IRC Chat Trade we currently have to be honest.
Its so outdated and not user friendly at all...
Have to read 200 Words per second just to keep up, if you type "WTB" you now have to Tab through the hundreds of replies you just got from people eager to sell their goods to get the best deal.
Feels like when you go for a stroll down the beach on your holiday and hundreds of locals dangling little beaded necklaces and knock-off sunglasses get all in your face... Not a comfortable environment at all.
The current Trade system looks like it has been put in place to repel people away from trading in the first place.
Hence I don't sell anything on Trade chat... Its just too Old and full of clutter.
Any extra Prime Parts I get become Ducats and the mods get given away to Friends/Clan.
Too many people are against any sort of Auction/Trading System because they will loose out on 1 or 3 plat though so its difficult to get this through to the Developers.

Okay for the sake of Clarity I'm going to let you in on a little secret here...
They Mean she's Useless to them because they already have other frames that can do everything she can do now... Her 1 special thing was removed.
Anything she can do there are other frames that can already do it... Mag has fallen into the "Mediocre at best" category and the only reason she's getting all this attention at the moment is because of the changes to her... Come back in a couple months time.
Also GPull and Mesa were never required for standing still...
Heres how you do it now without Moving more than 3 steps guys...
Nova, Saryn, Frost or Vauban, Nekros -> Find a little passagway with 2 doors -> Fortify with Frost or Vauban -> Spam Nova/Saryn -> Spam Nekros -> Carrier picks up everything at the doors or Vaubans Vortex sucks it all up.
We done 40 Waves with the greatest of Ease without Moving... Almost at all except to remove the XP debuff.
Inb4 "Nerf Passageways"... People Cried about GPull/Mesa here for nothing.
For Defense, Loki, Frost with Bubble Aug, Saryn, Nova (Replace Nova with something else if you like).
Loki Spams Disarm in 4 directions (Enemies now run to you), Frost Fortifies with a Massive bubble that freezes enemies, Saryn/Other Frame spam abilities.
Congrats, you are now doing Tower Defense without Moving.
(You can add Radioactive Disarm here for added Hilarity)
Mesa is only good for clearing out those first 20-25 waves quickly, you would've done it anyways... Its just quicker now, after that you still need a decent group to pwn Nullifiers & Bombards quick quick.
GPull was nice for Co-Op but certainly not required to complete missions while standing still.
Don't like Intercept unless I'm on an Archwing, people can do what they like there...
Favorite Game Mode was Excavation... Havnt tried it since they added the Survival Spawn to it.
-
...The point of making her unable to move items for allies was to stop complacency in farming. Nobody would turn that option off, that'd be stupid. People didn't want to not have items pulled to them, because it meant the team's Mesa could keep her ult running forever and one-shot everything as soon as it was visible, allowing you to never have to move off the spot during survival.
This is not a case of choice, it's a case of "no, you aren't doing that any more, stop trying to cheese it".
Don't need it... Don't even need mag or Mesa.
Done a 40+ Min Tower Survival with Nova, Frost, Nekros and Saryn without Moving more than 3 steps...
Found a little passageway with 2 entrances, fortified it with Frost, Nova/Saryn Spammed, Nekros Spammed, Carrier collected everything that dropped at the 2 Doors.
Quote 300 - "This is where we stand, this is where we fight, This is where they Die"
All you need to do is funnel the enemy into a little passage where there numbers count for nothing.
This "GMag & Mesa cause AFK Farming" thing is a friggen myth made up by whiners...
You can AFK Farm Survival without them, just have to have a Brain.
Going to make a Vid of it soon...
InB4 "NERF PASSAGEWAYS!"
Will do a Nice long Defense with the same Group next...
Time to get Everything Nerfed the way People are crying to get GMag and Mesa Nerfed...
The only thing Mesa is good for is clearing out the rubbish 20 waves quickly... You know, like you would've done anyways but it would take longer... After that you still need a Good Group to get to 40.
-
^This.
Mag is easy enough to mod that you have one or two free slots, and Greedy Pull is actually quite convenient in regular gameplay. Yeah, I'll continue to use it.
I'm going to do what the whiners should have done in the first place and just leave the group when I see a Mag.
Never actively played Mag, Never actually liked Mag, Her Co-Op QoL GPull was enough for me to endure her presence.
See what I done there ? I fixed my own problem without spoiling it for Hundreds of other people.
-
oh my days.. finally someone that don't blame developers' choices but players'.
totally agreed with you.
It is human nature to find the easiest possible way to complete tasks, that is how Progression works.
Else we would still be Cavemen throwing rocks at Antelope.
Developments task is to choose the path of progression in the game.
Personally I don't care about what loot is laying on the floor, its the loot after Round 5, 10, 15 etc that matters.
Does the GPull Nerf alter my ability to complete these Missions ? No, anything that GPull done can be done by your Gear Slots.
Was GPull a nice Co-Op QoL Device ? Yes, I no longer had to see silly markers on my screen whenever something dropped.
Did people have to use GMags or Group with them if they didnt like GPull ? No, the choice is the players.
So was there actually a reason to nerf if ? No, it was nerfed because people were whining about it.
That isnt Progression, thats Submission.

why ruin greedy pull tho..
time to switch back to trin
Warframe 2016 - Whiners Won Edition
All Frame abilites are now deemed to be Overpowered, No Frames have abilities except for Limbo.
Trinity nerfed because unlimited Energy is OP.
Frost Nerfed because Immortality is OP.
Mag Nerfed because CC & Enemies without Shields make the game to easy.
Mesa nerfed to act like a real cowboy and now instead summons a rodeo cow that blocks attacks.
Loki & Ash Nerfed because being invisible is deemed overly powerful since you cant actually die.
Saryn nerfed because lets face it that ability is stupidly powerful and has no LoS check.
Nova Nerfed because exploding enemies are OP.
All frames nerfed because they were all special for just 1 thing that some other whiney forum user didnt like.
Melee Nerfed because sneak attack is too efficient at beating high level enemies quickly.
PvE mode Nerfed because players keep finding easier ways to complete missions and objectives because thats human nature.
Game is now Full PvP Only with No abilities.
Welcome to CS:GO 2 : Space Ninja Boogaloo.

This is a terrible patch. You guys make kubrows harder to farm , nerf mag for no reason except for the fact that she was good. Release a prime acess and expect us to buy it? I say we boycott DE for this.
They nerfed Mag because some people decided to whine and whine and cry about it so DE gave in to the Pressure...
The answer all along was for the whiners to just not use GMag in the first place and let the others get on with their business.
Forums are toxic and will always spoil the majority of players fun because a small group will whine and cry till they get their way.
Intercept & Excavation spawns were perfect, they work better than Survival... Now thats broken too.
Worst Patch I've seen... Wont even be buying Ash because to be honest if Whiney players can sway the developments decisions this severely Im not sure of the direction in which the game is headed...

You seem mad... You going to be okay bro ?
On the other side of the spectrum people get bored of the grind and leave to find something more entertaining.
People get the hell in with not getting something after like 200 runs and leave to find something more fulfilling.
At this point they arnt spending anything at all... I know this for a fact because it happened to me, I just came back after over a year away to find that not much has changed.
But hey, if you want to cater for just one bunch that's cool too I suppose.
I say if you don't like GMags then no one is forcing you to play with them... The choice is and has always been the players.
I suppose coming to the forums to whine about an ability and get it nerfed for the people that do enjoy it is another way of going about it too though...
Who is Greedy now ?
Ps : What Some consider "Gameplay" may differ to what others consider it to be... That is afterall the essence of Gameplay, doing things your way, the way you as a person Enjoy them...
Once again no one is forcing you or anyone else to play with way, if you dont like it then just dont do it...
Or of course you could come to the forums and whine about it and get it nerfed for the people that do infact enjoy it...
I wouldve though thats just inconsiderate though.
For the record I don't care either way... I'm mearly remarking upon the Paradox of Someone coming to the forums asking for Nerfs to other peoples gameplay because it doesn't suit them and then having the audacity to call the others Greedy.
I don't care how people play the game, as long as they are enjoying it... I play Loki for Mostly everything though.

@ everyone saying RIP Mag RIP teamplay "This solves nothing" and "Grind is the problem". I say this. DE, please fix mesa's peacemaker to not auto aim without at least some mouse input (conal selection seems best) next, ty.
^This is why we can't have nice things...
Why stop there... Why not move on to Frosts Globe only Protects Frost (Please guys no standing around in a Frost Globe... Standing around isnt considered fulfilling a roll by some.
Nekros Desecrate should have LoS & Frontal Cone penalties too ?
Vaubans Vortex shouldnt suck in loot ? pls guys no loot all in 1 spot its considered bad by some...
Nova's MP Should totally have an upper limit of enemies that can be Primed at once right ? Because elseways you just have to stand in 1 place and shoot 1 mob... While we're at it lets give it a LoS check too.
Any of this making sense to you ?
Me Neither... Each Frame has 1 thing that they are special for.. Loki makes any Mission that isnt SV or Defence Trivial...
Limbo does limbo things... Ember pwns Infested, Saryn pwns damn near everything.
But we should totally whine like children till they Nerf them all right ?
Fix the damn Grind and stop nerfing the players...
-
Kinda kills the the COOPERATION aspect of this supposedly COOP game. Just saying. I mean this is a slippery slope. Next will be Snowglobe only affecting Frost. Or Blessing only affecting Trinity. I know I'm reaching, it's an augment not the base ability, blahblahblah, but still, food for thought devs... This could devolve into something very ugly.
^ This post needs more recognition... He is right.
A Good Fix for GPull would've been making it that other players still have to physically pick the loot up (By pressing x x x x x x x x x x, You know, like if you left your Mesa in 1 spot for too long without moving).
That way its still useful as a co-op function and it still creates a stall in the flow of the gameplay so players arnt idly standing about anymore.
This GPull change is just going to revert back to Trinity, Frost, Mesa, Nova all with Energy Restores in their Gears...
-
Oh I'll still bring a Mag along...
She can pull the loot towards herself and tell us if anything nice has dropped... If not we'll just stand there with Frost, Mesa & Trinity and carry on our business as usual.
Nerfing GPull was short sighted... But I suppose its trial & Error.

Y'know DE could always just take the really nice mods and sigil off of the reward table. Nowhere did it say that it would be a possible reward.
You can go with some chance or you could go with no chance. I personally prefer some chance to get something really rare, rather than no chance at all.
The problem I have isn't the low drop rate its the [Time Spent vs Reward Earned] factor.
If we spend 20min+ in a Defence we know we will get something.
If we spend 20min+ in a Survival we know we will get something.
If we spend 20min+ in an Interception we know we will get something.
Spy Missions are super quick when you know how to do them and you get 3 chances per run at getting your Mods.
With this TA Game Mode you spend 20min+ and get nothing. (Fieldron Sample, Mutagen Mass, Detonite Sample... Because we don't already have thousands of those).
Personally I don't have 20+min to spend grinding for disappointment.
I understand why RNG exists and I understand that these Mods/Sigils are supposed to be rare but then why tie them to a TA in the way they have... Its just breeding disappointment.
Should've just created a new Sigil and maybe 1 new Mods or something that was guaranteed after X amount of runs.
-
Is it true slash event mods drop here?
Don't think so... I reckon it was an elaborate troll by someone.
Done the Event 9 times this morning and all I get is Credit Cache, Mutagen Sample, Detonite Sample and Fieldron Sample.

Wrong questions...
Is it "Unfair" that no matter how hard you try there will always be people ahead of you no matter what you do ?
Answer to this is yes... You bought something early on that gives you higher rank than everyone else with no means at all of them catching you...
If you dont know what Im getting at here...
Does achieving this rank mean anything at the moment ?
No it doesnt so why bother... (This is the question everyone was answering)
Do I give a rats &#! about any of this ?
Not even in the slightest... Wildstar release date in 10 days...
-
I'd believe that if you know... there were not people openly stating this is what they are doing.
Don't get stuck on that, this would've happened even without them saying that...
I saw that thread when it came out and nothing that they done would've had any impact at all on what is happening.
If you believe that those people are the cause of whats happening on Ceres then you are being naive (Not trolling here).
This is the result of hiding a great reward behind a massive RNG wall and then placing the best place to farm it on Ceres...
Most of the community still want / need Brakk, Corpus will keep winning till they have it... Ceres or Not.
-
This was destined to happen...Only a completely ignorant, blind or plain idiot wouldn't have seen it coming.
Its got nothing to do with the player base screwing over Vay Hek hunters so stop making up excuses...
Whats happening here is the result of terrible planning, bad implementation and neglect on the part of the development team.
You give people this amazing weapon to find that less than 1/3 of the player base has, hide it behind a triple RNG wall and then make one of the parts near impossibru to find then go and leave the main places farm these on the new and improved remodeled tilesets and expect the community to "Do whats right" ?
Making the playerbase argue and fight with each other, placing blame for bad setup by development... I think DE just broke their own "Trolling & Baiting" rule.
There is no "The right thing" there is no "We must keep the balance" there is no "This is the new area we must preserve it" this is a friggen online game...
There is an awesome reward there, people don't care about your balance or new boss they want the reward.
The rest of you stop arguing with each other... No one is doing this on purpose it was inevitable.

So a Primed version of this:
Alright where's my wallet...
-
People will have to pay hundreds of plat for something the person bought for 75 plat at most - all because the person looking for it was a week or two late to the game. Does that really seem fair to the newer players?
Making them tradable is the only way to actually make it fair to new players/players that joined after the update...
Fair in the sense that now they have a chance to get the stat boost items just like us... Also they would have to buy platinum to trade the helm so DE wins.
Either way Im one of the guys that believes the stats should be removed off all helms old and new completely and just be used as cosmetic items...
-
I'll just leave this here...
-
Until more people finally decide that an updated trading system isnt the work of satan we just kinda have to make it up as we go dude...
GL with trading in the meantime... Hope you dont get ripped off too much.

ZOMG WALLHAX INB4BAN!
Seriously though yeah theres some weird stuff going on on the Pluto ice maps today.

^ This link is not me, its the best Raid Solo Player in the World hands Down.
The Point is Difficulty... Some people prefer advanced difficulty and want to push themselves past the limits and boundaries that a game has set for them.
Others do it just because its fun to push yourself to the ultimate limit.
I've Solo'd a Lot of Raids, Current Raids in Many MMO's.
Why ? Because I wanted to and pushed myself to do it.
I'm pretty damn Good at it too... But nowhere near Raegwyn & Mionelol level of Awesomeness.
