Awhile back it was indicated that a player market was many/few days away with a very non-committal response from devs. This thread is not a request for other players to tell me SOON tm. TBH I have seen and said that all too often. Rather I am looking for a Dev response on the question.
How long are we going to have to wait for this. I have been waiting since closed beta for this so a few more months or days won't make a difference. I would just like to know how much player data needs to be analyzed before letting the players analyze it themselves? Until blueprints are fed to the Eve players we won't have this market. Maybe it is time to make some new BPOs to seed with Eve players so that research can commence on the Proto suits, Proto guns and the like. I don't expect that it will be an easy transition if after the suits are all gone we have nothing left but our BPOs. A bit of advance warning and stockpiling would be nice.
Thank you for your time and consideration in responding to us mercs and eve players in a manner that allows us to prepare for the inevitable switch over to a better way of doing things. |

That's a different group of Devs (there is a post regarding the sniper issue, the terrain has changed to allow access to sniping locations from the ground rather than just DS).
Still waiting, BTW ty for not replying SOON TM |

Fair enough, I feel that we should still be able to ask for an update that says ok here we go in 2015 we will introduce the player market or something like that or even in Uprising 2.0 or something that give us an idea of some sort of progress made. I know that they have a market analyst going over the purchases made by mercs and I still think that people crying for balance changes will always be around changing the supply and demand of products on the market until the End Of Dust as seen with Eve balancing and the continual changes (IE Industrial Balancing).
It comes down to this, until the goods can be manufactured there is no associated cost vs profit to analyze and this particular issue will hold devs back from switching it over, it already has and in all reality suit loss and restock is so common that until the player market is actually implemented there is no way for anyone to reduce or increase the cost of items or eliminate it altogether (mine the mins, build the gear, trade it to their Dust toon). This is the main reason why the player market should be implemented, to allow corporations to pay their mercs appropriately, with gear and isk for winning districts and holding on to them. Scratch my back, hold on a few months/years I will scratch yours eventually, is the way the lack of the market is treating mercenaries in Dust. |
