anonym_ntfKigmJ0k9e Players 138 posts Report post #1 Posted February 10, 2022 I had "Le Terrible" premium French destroyer from crates. I just didn't like it, so I sold it for credits. But it would be nice if we could sell our ships for doubloons, coal, steel, free EXP etc. I mean why not? If you have a ship that you don't like, why not just sell it to some other player on auction? Not just the ships, but captains, camo and equipment too. We need a Free Market. I think this feature would make the game much more interesting and dynamic. 3 3 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MacFergus Beta Tester 1,067 posts 4,880 battles Report post #11 Posted February 10, 2022 Although it wont happen I like the idea of having an auction house where you dump premium ships you just don't like for big fat whales to drool over and you coin the dubs in its a win win for WG and the player and the Whale.

That is the only part of his idea that makes even the slightest bit of sense. Of course the way he put the rest of it made it sound like that he'd want to be able to buy other people's ships and stuff without ASKING first.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WorthyOpponent Players 687 posts 5,439 battles Report post #13 Posted February 10, 2022 Auctions were a part of World of Tanks already and it's clear WG wants to bring more of those in the future. I say you may expect an "in with the old out with the new" system soon. WoT has an event where you basically lose a tank you didn't want to get a discount for another tank you might want. I believe if you give like 3 tanks you can get 1 of same tier tank. I wouldn't mind something like that myself ngl. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If a bidding system was in place and lets say you put your Kami up for auction the people buying it might spend 100k dubs we know this because a Fujin sold for $300 last year by WG , An auction house that players could use to buy and sell ships would attract a great deal of interest not just from players but from profiteers as well , If you also add in WG take 20% like auction houses do it could work. We know its fantasy but hey its a great idea imo. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And now imagine what happens to the prices of ships that are still in the shop. Do you think anyone would offer more? No, people would buy the ships for less. WG would earn less money and the people who sell their ships do not need to spend money to buy new stuff, leading to even less income for WG. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only way for WG to make some money out of it would be heavy tax (like 50%) on those transactions. This way they could benefit from sells off old premiums without flowing market with more of those. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
