Auction house in ol'west
 
Can be in ol'west auction house for limited super rares ,special limited guns or rare skins for guns? :)

Nice. Hope auction house will get added soon.

Jellybeans 07-30-2015 04:20 PM

Unless the auction house is different to the one in iEra, I don't really like this idea. I could be wrong, but I think admins on iEra tell their friends the time that the item is set for so their friends have better chances of winning. Again, I could be wrong. If I am wrong, I don't really care if an auction house is added or not.

On iEra, auctions are based on a time the item is set, it's all luck.

But don't admins set the time? If it's set for 1 minute, couldn't they tell their friends that it's set for that amount of time? Their friend would then use a stopwatch and bid right at the 1 minute mark.

Then whenever a bid is placed within the range of a few minutes, another minute is added. That way, other players have the opportunity to increase their previous bid until there are no more bids left.

So, if it's set for 1 minute it usually turns into 2 minutes? Sorry, I'm just not really understanding.

Whoops, sorry for not explaining it further in detail. Like let's say, the auction was supposed to last for an hour, and it has come down to the last 3 minutes. Another player places a bid, then the existing 3 minutes will be added by 1 minute, and this will keep on repeating itself as long as a bid is placed within the 3 minutes range.

Well, that's not how it works on iEra, but I like this idea.

If most people had common sense, they would all wait a minute or two before bidding to get the item for the cheapest possible price. Unfortunately not everyone knows that and bids away as fast as possible as soon as the auction begins

really you have a higher chance of winning if you can continuously bid (the higher money you have) so you actually stay in the bidding time, as the price increases the less people there are bidding.

I don't think there is Auction house in West times.

And I don't really like it to have an auction house in Ol'West.
But you know, if you guys really want an auction house then I don't really care

Parkx 07-30-2015 07:16 PM

I think an Auction House in Ol'West would be a great idea. It's a good way to get special items. Maybe they can sell the event items, such as Clown Honk, Chili Katana, etc. Also it would be good for the people who have too much Gralats. It will give players another reason to get Gralats too.

G Fatal 07-30-2015 08:44 PM

Was against idea but is kinda good idea to gets players cash out out of circulation i guess, only con is players will eventually want it happening regular meaning gfx staff would be focusing on that + holidays than other stuff that could make ol different and better.

I honestly never thought of that. Probably because I don't know exactly how they work on Era.

Shiz 07-30-2015 09:15 PM

If an auction house was implemented. I would hope it would be where players could host their own auctions on their items while staff could host their own in an auction house, would be a cool addition and different.

This would be amazing.

Clown 07-30-2015 10:46 PM

I'd like to see something refreshing if an auction house was added that diverts completely away from how iEra's auctions are carried out

Like shiz said about player auctions, that would be really awesome and a nice alternative to trade tables. Additionally, I support Dolfi's idea about gun skins being auctioned.
I would much rather see 'Gun Skins' being auctioned as oppose to 'Auction Only Guns'. This would prevent certain guns from being ridiculously priced (like era) and maintain a healthy PvP experience as the player will only recieve a new skin for their gun.

The beauty of Ol'West is its simplicity compared to Era; slow and skill based PvP with affordable weapons and a variety of decent paying jobs - implementing an auction house identical to Eras just seems like a step in the direction of ******* up a currently-decent game for the people who might not enjoy the gameplay/speed of Era

i have an idea please give feedback,

AUCTION HOUSE IDEAS!!!

AUCTION "sides"
There would be as much floors as you guys would make the level, but two of the floors would be dedicated to something..
one floor would be the normal auction floor like when they would say something rare is being auctioned and everyone would go in there because it only happens at certain times not like every second.

The next floor would be a "player floor". this floor would be active at all times so you could randomly go in there if u wanna sell your items, people would think this is an issue cause it could bring down the normal trade house, but think again. There would be an option to set a "buy now" price(if you wanted people to bid you would not have to set a buy now price) or you could just put the item up and see what the bids are, if you see an offer you love you can choose it and accept it(the reason i think that is because if someone offered a whopping amount of bbc or bbs at that time you could click accept at that time not have to wait to see the final bid). you should also have to set a time limit so someone does not hold the auction floor forever.


thank you for reading that and please give me feedback. :):):)

No I had a auction house with bidding that's so bad....it should be like this..say I wanna sell my sword...I list it for $20k and u get charged for listing in the auction house of course.. and then when people search the list u can just click it and buy it and that's it. Idk if anyone has played spacetime studios games, like pocket legends or arcane legends.. but I want it just like that. Bidding is just a bad idea

Sardon 07-31-2015 07:25 AM

nah

Distorted_P2P 07-31-2015 08:19 AM

If this is even implemented, make it so final bid gets it, I hate that luck **** in iEra it's just annoying.

Zeax 07-31-2015 06:37 PM

I would prefer the staff to add beautiful stuff for everybody than for a few rich players.
