About Trading

So I'm pretty sure at one point or another almost all of haypimons players have thought about a monster trading system.
Well while it would be really neat, it has great potential to break the game in a few ways that could lose haypi money. I mean let's face that's what this game is built around. But I think there could be ways around it that could make it beneficial for all of us.
I think first and foremost a lot of issues could be mitigated by only letting players of roughly the same level trade. That way we don't end up with level 6 players with epics earlier than they would normally receive them, which I see as the biggest issue for haypi since it would speed up progression. In stead of buying coins to help progress quicker people would just trade.
As another possible aspect to trading there could be a silver cost depending on what's being traded. Sort of like synth costs or breeding costs. Yeah I know another way to divide us from that precious silver lol but haypi still wants to make money so I'm just trying to be realistic considering how this game works so far.
I'm certain there are plenty other possibilities on how this could be done that's beneficial for both haypi and players, these are just some ideas I came up with the other day. If anyone has any other ideas to contribute, please share! I think it would be worth discussing:)

Re: About Trading

The more I think about this feature... I am more against it... I was all for it... but I fear this.... HM Black Market. If players can trade monsters or items.. I see people starting to charge for lvl 50 monsters and or rare books on 3rd party sites... and then sell stuff to other people... I mean.. If I had the option to buy an already lvl 50 Vertedeath with the talent I want for $5 or more... I might :p That is where I see trading being more complicated and unfair for players and see players who cant buy things being outraged cuz it wouldnt be fair.

Just my 2cents.

Re: About Trading

As far as I know, Haypi has a rule against selling and/or giving away accounts. I would assume this would hold true for items in game as well. So I really dont see Haypi adding a trading system that would allow that. I for 1 am against a trading community. For reasons stated in other posts. The game would lose all meaning and would not be fun. You would have DIE hard players just farming and farming, then trade/sell items for whatever, and they would just be OP. There again, you would also have new players that dont know the game getting better skills etc than players who have played since the start.
HD went south because of the ease of xp for new players. A new player could get a level 40 dragon in about a week or 2. It took many of us on HD Months to achieve a level 40 dragon prior to that.
I just dont want to see this game, A great game, tank because of "equality" for newer players. Put the time in, reap the rewards.

I can't add a lot more to what you guys have said.
This game won't be prosperous with trading. I've mentioned this time and time again. It will also be tedious just making trading available since there will be more security required as hackers will be more prevalent and a lot more support since this will definitely create a lot of issues with players being scammed, etc.
Quitted!

Re: About Trading

Yeah, even while writing this It still felt like it was iffy but I thought I would throw it out there and see what y'all thought :). I mean I think it could be done In a manner that kept things balanced and somewhat beneficial, but I will admit the stipulations that would have to be put on it would make things fairly unenjoyable. I didn't really even think of the hacking. I'm on a fairly new server so I guess hackers aren't as prevalent in the community I'm in yet.
