Annnoth Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 (edited) Then they add Platinum trading effectively making it that and allowing these "gold farmers" that they didn't want to exist... exist. I understand it's new and will be changed down the line but I feel this is an issue from the start. I feel platinum should not be able to be traded because people will farm for the rarest of mods and sell it to people for platinum or early warframe parts for platinum, or doing a transaction over paypal outside of the game to score cheaper platinum due to possible currency imbalances. Not sure how the last applies to warframe since I'm just a simple american. Edited November 21, 2013 by theharddrinkingapplejack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mohrad Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Maybe he means u can buy Mod Packs with plat, thus somewhat -indirectly- trade real money? I honestly have quite a difficulty to comprehend OP post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatpig84 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Since when Platinum can be traded ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdei Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I thought they mention something about each trade would cost the players some platinum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
semigod22 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 by megan 3) PLATINUM. Only Platinum that you have purchased will be eligible for trade. There is no minimum/maximum amount of Platinum you can trade. Your starting 50 Platinum cannot be traded, and moving forward, any Platinum you are rewarded (contests/livestreams, etc) will not be eligible for trade.

War-Zone Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 100% agree. trading plat is a bad idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artemisfortune Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Think about it this way. If you buy plat, you spend it on what you want. Whether it's the store or players doesn't matter, because to spend plat, you have to buy it or earn it. So essentially, they're just making a way for people who couldn't get say, catalysts or reactors without an alert popping up now more viable to gameplay. Plus, you can still only trade with clan members. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Somberness Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 wow just when i was getting into warframe.. guess its time to find another game. trading plat? what a joke.. chat channels will be fun now (if they come back). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
semigod22 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 sorry DE but u cant handle kids who want to trade now... i bet (if someday chat is working again...) u will or plan to do a seperate trade channel right? and if they spam in other channels u kick them? guess what... i doubt that this will work again. they will spam the hell out of every chat. also clan chats will be filled with spam (big clans) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archfiendrai Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 This needs to be gotten rid of in the next hot fix. And it needs to be done ASAP. I've seen what this can do to a game. Lets NOT have it happen here. Hopefully someone from the team will see us frothing at the mouth here. >_> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archistopheles Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Come on guys, are you really going to quit because it's possible to EARN platinum now? It's why I quit Diablo 3, and they are getting rid of their real money auction house because of how it impacted the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
