Buy outs need to be automatic. This would eliminate price fixing.

Please explain how rampant price fixing is "perfectly fine"? Explain why it's ok that you pay a seller what they are asking for and yet you have to wait hours or even days for them to approve of the trade? That just doesn't make sense.


I also wrote that there are to few players.
It means that the trade is alive until these players got decent enough items.
It also means that the trade dies after that point, since less players need items.

This means that players stash is stacking up with more and more duplicates.
This means that common items drops in price because there are to many of them.
This means that you have the option to bid on more than one players item.
This means that price fixing cant really work, and thats why it cant be a thing.

But i also said there are noobs that are sort of learning items value.
And if you rly rly need something fast, just offer one extra chaos or two, and the guy will be happy and trade you soon as he see it.

After all early seasons are the most fun, because something has been added to the game, and its fun to fill up your empty stash.
So no reason to be cheap, because eventually you will loose everything anyway.

Last thing, eventually price fixers wich you belive exist, why would they even waste time on xbox when the pc player base is that much greater.
What are they gonna do on xbox? Get all items wich no one need anyway ? 😃

Too few players or what noobs do has nothing to do with what I am talking about. It is not justification for this bad system which encourages price fixing. It doesn't even matter if price fixing works much of the time or not. It pisses me off that there are a bunch of buy outs on the market that aren't there to actually sell. How are buyers supposed to know if it's just a good deal or if it's a price fixer?

Not everyone restarts every season. Some players like myself will continue playing in standard because that's what we enjoy.

Offering a little more currency doesn't necessarily help. If someone isn't online then you still have to wait until they get back online. Why is that necessary? Just make buyouts instant.
Standard Forever
