In-Game Trading System, "yay" or "nay?"

"yay" - trade armor/guns/materials with other players

159

"nay" - keep the game the way it is (was designed)

76

I've seen this come up too many times in the various forums. (Bungie, and external) so I figured why not put it to a vote. You decide what the public wants. I know what my vote is, do you? ***Note; this poll is to serve as a message to Bungie and Co. As a collective opinion from it's combined user group. They'll be able to use the data the best they see fit. Whatever their decision is, it will have been made with the input YOU provided here and now. Happy Hunting Guardians! -L.V.-

  • I think they should but each trader should be forced to put equal amount of wealth into the trade to make the trade and accept this could be any amount of items into the trade like 300 sapphire wire for like a legendary something like that

  • I vote no on the trade the way you have it up there. I wouldn't mind seeing glimmer/materials traded, but where destiny is right now, there's no point in trading. If they bring more materials to the fold, then maybe for that, but trading armor/guns this early in the game makes it unfair, because all the new level 20's wouldn't have to play endlessly for their gear like those of us that did. Maybe in a year or two when there's more content and if a crafting system finds it's way into the game, but for now, it's not necessary, as much as people want it and don't want to grind for their spinmetal/helium/relic/spirit.

    • I only say yes to a trade system if implemented properly. Aka within a clan; only able to trade with people in your fireteam for drops only found while formed up (and up to 30min after if it was a random grouping); only for legendaries and lower; No ascendant materials can be traded either (to include motes of light and strange coins)

    • No, for the simple fact of reduced game longevity. Glimmer, if used in the future for more intensive upgrades or features, would inflate also with trading...this also leads to game longevity declining. And finally, bots and spam. No trade system, no market for bots and the resulting spam of paid levelers and chat market spam. Play satisfaction derived from self-improvement is a huge factor in how long a game lasts. Trading significantly reduces this: no alts need work, late-comers have nobody to play with/experience elitism/play game in half the time, and we're all left in two years (or less) waiting on the next game because this one is all used up.

      • I read a few people stating it not being fair to give away legendary to friends. But why not make an auction house (AH) trading system like in WoW? And remove glimmer cap.. Go nuts and introduce a proffesions system? To use mats to create stuff? Trade those mats on the AH? Would make the whole thing a bit more dynamic.. Just my two cents 😀

        • It's just not needed. What's to stop a level 30 who has had the game for months load up one of his friends once that person hits level 20. I just think the game experience would change for the worse with trading. And then there's obviously the people who would take advantage of it. People just seem to have a problem with working for their stuff. And I know there are plenty of people out there who would use the trade system properly but to me it's just not needed. It would possibly ruin the game. For example. Yesterday I bought an exotic engram with Motes of Light that I EARNED. I'm a Titan and unfortunately it was a hunter helmet. What's to stop me from just handing it over to my hunter friend who didn't work for it at all. There's already so many changes that have made the game less than what it was, let's not do this too.

          I would love a trade system but it would need rules hard locked in. IE: a uncommon would require 3 commons or more for the trade to be approved. The same rule should apply to Rare, Legendary, and Exotics across all types; gear, consumables, and vehicles, 3 items from one step below equal one above. Likewise Rare is equal to Rare and so on. Also trade should be done by anyone to anyone in the tower, but they could only be done in a "trading house" somewhere in the tower. The tower does have lots of pointless doors at this stage of the game. 😁

          • If trading is allowed and hacked guns eventually surface then there will be no reason the play destiny... Especially not for the next 10 years..

          • I currently roll a Titan as my main in Destiny, I have a vault full of Warlock only gear. Mostly legendary, but I have an exotic helm for one too just today. While I certainly plan on playing a Warlock eventually, I have much more gear than I can use. I'd love to be able to actually give it to someone who actually needs it. I'm totally in favor of a trade system of some kind, even if that means the age old mechanic of binding previously equipped armor to the account/character.

            • I think this would be great but only for uncommon and common to be free but the rare, legendary, and exotic you have to pay a charge. Like to make a trade guild or a blackmarket type thing that also manages the prices of an item so trolls don't try to charge outragious prices for an object. For example: a level 4 object someone may charge the price 100,000,000.
