Short answer no definitely no ...
Longer answer: 1. We are in a game the "real life" argument doesn't make any sense ... Some example? A town of 30k people with 60k troops ?!? That argument has no value 2. Especially with the factions on the horizon, and the fact that some are hostile, I wouldn't want a new player to not have access to a viable hub because of that. 3. Whatever you do if someone is interested in trading the first answer in gc is gonna be Centrum ... And you can't fight that. I got a bigger problem with trade in illyriad, and it's mostly with "traders". To take your argument, if you want to grow a market in real life you gotta work for it. So if you want your close by bub to be active, put some buying order (not selling) with higher price than centrum/hope ridge, that way you might advertise and get some more people active there. The illy trader has in my view a really short term eye on profit and after investing 500millions in buying orders in hope ridge, when they started, I really saw that most "traders" just put selling orders there and didn't try to make it more active. In the end all my business is done in centrum: convinience convinience convinience ... That was my useless chatty self... Have fun |

in real life is a matter of how good trader you are to find cheap prodacts to sell them expencive to those that need them. in illyriad you don t even have to be a trader you just buy and sell from centrum.
so everyone is a trader but not a trader in real. i also say CLOSE the two HUBS for some period so to be forced everiboody to go a bit more local . it will not be annoying for new playier they will just lose some money by selling their stafs a bit cheaper in advance of some real trader as and the old playier will . i agree is interesting the HUBS anyway . but do you doupt about where you sould sell/buy your stafs ? or you know by default where you sould ?

All players use (or should use) traders at some point as trade hubs are really powerful. For someone already having traders your change means that they would have to move one to either Centrum or Hope Ridge. Which means they aren't really affected. The knowledge and use of trade hubs is already exciting and interesting. Your suggestion doesn't change anything with that. It only makes it worse/annoying for newer players. A new player teleports to BL with his tenadril. No access to Centrum anymore and traders at that point are still far away. Exciting change

yes the only problem i see is that the new payers will lose some money by selling the cotters stafs to a lower price .....(since they will have less information) .......but giving an reallistick form to an aspect of the game it migth make it more interesting for new playiers trying to achieve beter sale rates that would make the game more interesting for them so it will benifit by this way ( its a game the point of it is to be exiting and interesting NOT easy)
it would affect all the playier . well its matter off how good trader you are when you sale to sale to increase prise where there is demand and to buy at low price .. ==>> which is not happenig since we all trade to the centrum . ofcorce you need access to the place that are cheap to buy staffs but with my proposition you have to search and find it each time or else lose some money on the advance of a real trader. i don t think is somethink that need much coding . but i accept that if it need much other matters sould be first priority of the DEVS |

It would only really affect newer players - which is bad. Centrum is the main point of trade - thus everbody needs access there later on. In addition - why waste dev time when they could implement something useful instead?

Hi , I believe
that HAVING visable 2 central HUBS is bad for the trading experience of the game having visible
2 central hubs make thing much easier for everyone but is it any realistic?,
does not it cut from the fun of the trading? , what is a trader at illyriad ?
So my
proposition is to Hide and Close for a period both central hubs ( Centrum and Hope Ridge ), and make visible
by default only the closer HUB . I think
that the period is ideal since some coding will take place for faction play. Ofcorse something
has to be done for all these res that are stored by the DEVS.
I think it would
be for the fun of all and make trading really interesting and for indivigoul
traders and for trading alliances . I will
give a meaning to trading the player that know where is the demand and where is
the interest , could grabe opportunities by his knowledge that other have not. The game should
not be easier by lowering the level of difficulty but by cutting micromanagement/timespending IMO. |
