This game NEEDS a trading system.

People don't understand how much this game would benefit to a trading system... Since the accounts are saved on a CLOUD, that means duping cannot happen. I have also picked up Legendaries and Exotics for a different class, wishing I could trade them with another player for similar equipment. YOU can earn your gear but it is your choice if you want to give it away, they should make a trading system where both players must accept what they wish to trade and must come to a final conclusion, if one player cancels to try to change anything, it will cancel the whole trade. Not hard. The Cryptarch is a jerk, why have a chance of getting a Rare out of a Legendary Engram? Where is the "Earning"? Random drops aren't "earning" since they are RANDOM, I play the game for much longer than my friend and he gets better loot than me... EDIT: I can only EARN so much a week anyway, so if they limit how much I can EARN, which pretty much stops me from playing because bad drops.

  • Trading upgrade materials, coins and motes might be nice, but I don't think that weapons or armour should be tradable. Game economies can add another layer of realism and immersion after all.

  • No it dosnt. At least farming cannot ruin the game this way.

  • I would've agreed with you up until I looked into how many legendaries and exotics are actually in the game. There just isn't enough gear to support a trading system yet. That might not be true in a year, but as it stands everyone would have everything in just a couple months at best. The expansion schedule wouldn't allow for that.

  • I think there should be trading but ONLY between weapons/armor of the same rarity and within 3 levels.

  • I just wish I could trade resources for any type of currency. My friends hate resource gathering and I love to do it while browsing the web and the like. On the flip side, while I play Crucible, I'm not overly fond of it while they love playing it. It'd be nice to be able to trade, say, glimmer or some other currency for resources and the like. I still play crucible and whatnot, it'd just be nice to trade things of that sort.

    • You get gear you don't "need" to breakdown into materials that you DO need to upgrade the purples you will eventually get. Finding upgrade materials for the couple of legendary items is worse than hoping for a purple. Trust me. Both a friend and I have realized saving gear for our future alts is actually hurting the progression of the character we are currently playing.

      • Diablo saves on cloud, and you can dupe....? Also, trading means. "Hey I'm fully geared, guess I'll just hand out my loot because I have no reason for it" so this occurs over and over until everyone and there alt has Bis gear in no time. Leave trading out of destiny. Ty

        Not even going to read what you typed out. NO NO NO. I don't want to play with people that just got gear from people traded it to them and they completely suck.

          This would result in bots selling gear and new players getting geared in the first day. If they had the diablo trading system where you could trade with players in group for like 2 hours after it drops it'd be nice. Games with trades and auction house systems on loot based games fall apart quickly, control the auction house, win the game. Buy gear, win the game. Play the game and get it yourself. TL;DR trading gear results in bots and farmers and new players getting fully geared first day.

            • I completely agree! This game would benefit tremendously from some sort of trading system. Whether it be one-on-one personal trading or some kind of "auction house".

            • Lvl 24 Hunter. 1st 2 Legendary drops were Chest/Boots for WARLOCK. I fumed and fumed that there was no trading system. Equal swaps between classes, nothing else. At least a Legendary drop wouldnt be wasted. Much as I love the game I dont know if I can invest the time to re-do the same stuff I've done already a dozen time as a new class. Love the gameplay but content is wearing thin already after a week.

            • I said before release I would wait to see till after the beta. I was both pleasantly & unpleasantly surprised. During the beta you felt like you did not have a story behind your equipment unless it came from a mission or PVP. For me my lost birth of history legendary ship I got in iron banner during the beta had a story but the rest really I got from farming because the beta wasn't the full game & I got bored in locked zones lol. Now we are here at release the stuff you get is rare & has some small earned/story to it even if it's just a campaign item. But then theirs the cryptarch..... I do not farm like I did during the beta so when I get a legendary I expect it to be a legendary & it is not, well that makes people want to farm to get what they should've earned originally not to mention when you get a certain level getting certain stuff to advance yourself is not easy - which I approve of, I don't want it to be easily given but when I earn it I expect to get what I earned. But Mr. Lucky & cunningg over their got lucky got legendary stuff then gained massive favor with a faction from the start to get all his stuff plus maybe a dash of farming for extra.... If they do get it why is it for a different class now that does not affect me 'much' as I planned to have 1 of every class anyway but since I can't use it because my other characters are still too low level & my friend could use it more or I get a item that's useless & has no real story to me but may be useful to a friend I would not mind trading it. For example: Your Friend asks "how you get that blue weapon" you reply "well it's not as good as my original weapon & it was suppose to be a legendary but I got this instead" & he replies "I don't know what your talking about that thing be awesome for me" - you probably wouldn't mind to give it to him. Also the OP pointed out duping would not work & the point is if your stuff was earned or has a story you wouldn't want to trade it anyway. If this current system is not fixed to how it should be then I will become in favor of trading. Currently I am hoping for change & that hope is why I have not decided to be in favor of trading just yet.

            • Nah. There is absolutely no reason for a trading system. Just play the game, you'll get there.

              • [b] NO!!![/b] You get what you earn. this isn't the Obama administration, we don't give low level gamers welfare equipment at the expense of someone else hard work. work for what you earn, and earn what you work for!! i'm a precision gamer and i've been rewarded with two exotics and even of i didn't i enjoy the grind.

              • Trade with Fireteam only. And just like once a day. Sometimes I'd like to give a great weapon or armor to my lesser fortunate Titans

                I agree with trading, but only a with a very limited system and without any auction houses: - Only between clan members and/or friends. - Limited to a certain number per week. Also I see many people here worried with gifting and giving away free items for lower levels and people who haven't worked for it. I share those worries but there is a simple solution: - You can only trade between items of same level, quality and that belong to the same equipment slot. - It has to be a real trade, you cannot simply offer/give nothing in return. It would help at least against the annoying armor items that aren't for your class or for trading types of weapons you don't like using.
