Why Trading in Destiny will and should never happen

About virtual economies: [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_economy[/url] Many on this forums don´t understand why Bungie won`t allow us to trade. What harm is it when i got a second Vex and my Raidbuddy a third Epilogue and we simply exchange the rewards? Seems fair on the Surface. But think about it this way: If someone at the end of the Raid would tell you: I´ll give you 50$ for that Vex, would you give it to him? I know I would, probably even if it was my first one. This kind of thing will open the door for a lot of things. Think of Raidparties that will offer their service to rich guys (so called „Whales“), 5 Level 30 that will carry a Level 27 through Hard Raid in exchange to getting 100$. Sunsingers that offer their services for 20 bucks to solo Atheon etc. (Won`t happen, you think. Happened to Blizzard with Diablo 3`s auction house. Players will always find a way) We got a taste what happens when the Economy is attacked during the Queen`s Event. In no time players had figured out, that a guaranteed Legendary drop on the Queen Bounties, could give them 2 shards/ 2 energies per 10 Minute. Bungie was forced to act quickly, because the economy was flooded with upgrade materials. It`s hard to understand why we as Players benefit in the long run from stable currencies: it`s the same reason why governments can`t print out money 24/7. Edit: [i]There seems to be a misunderstanding here: Personally I would love trading. But when I look at the bigger picture I believe Destiny will become a worse game, if Player-to-Player trading will ever get introduced. I´m pretty confident that the Economy Designers of Bungie see the problems even better than I do. And I will also put my money where my mouth is:[/i] [b] I will give my second Hawkmoon to any PS4-player for free that is the first one to claim it after Bungie officially announces Player-to-Player trading.[/b]

  • i think there should be an auction house, you go there, you see a menu of everything for sale at that time,you select the item you want and bid. it should be motes, strange coins,van+crucible marks. (game sets starting price, player sets currencies accepted.). highest bidder gets it. that offer then disappears from the main menu of the auction house and wham.the item is delivered to the postmaster of the highest bidder. currency delivered to the seller.(it would be worldwide, not just trading between the 15 players in the tower at a time) and also anonymous.
