Welcome fellow Lokans,
Okay, let’s be honest. The Markets 2.0 Update was utterly horrible, and a waste of time to implement. Yeah, it’s got its pros.... pro, but is a complete letdown. Like really, a market is a place where not only where you sell things, but you trade as well. @TheFreshLemon mentioned early that it’s almost impossible to get certain restricted resources. The problem is that the market is a good way to sell things to get shards. However, that’s not what anybody wants. Like, come on people, shards are only useful for buying ancient ingots and keeping your town alive. What we the players want to see is a way to trade restricted resources for restricted resources. The market doesn‘t allow this, and for this soul reason it sucks.
Now, we are left with two solutions; one is more probable than the other.
Solution #1: Create a new Sub-Forum so we the players can negotiate trades between our towns or fellow players. This would allow us to setup a set time to trade, negotiate what is traded for what, and other important aspects of the trade.
Solution #2: Update to Markets 3.0. This would allow us to price what we’re selling not just as shards, but as resources as well.
Obviously the most likely solution will be to create the new Sub-Forum. However, we could also update to Markets 3.0, which will not be priority. We would use the Sub-Forum until the update is released.
