This goes together with my other idea about personal shops.

This is how it works. You will be somewhere in DC and you put somthing on your personal shop. When you do that you dont dissapear from that spot like you normaly do in like 5 minutes.

You will be seen and people will be able to click the icon next to your name to check your shop. Like crossroads would be the most common place for people to hang out with there personal shops.

If you dont know what a personal shop is it's something where you put something up like on your trade block but you put in a price. and people can just come and click the buy button to automaticly buy your items right then and there.

They do this in lots of online games and it works very well to get money to go around in the world(points in this case). So more points will be flowing faster which means more income for outwar and faster results for members.

Humh you see this indeed a lot in 2d/3d mmorpgs :o
Although i don't see the purpose of it cause you can just go to trade block and search for items :O?

So what would be the advantage of adding those shop icons to dc?

would be good because the people buying dont have to wait a few hours or days for people to accept. they can just go and buy what they need when they need it. and it being in dc because dc needs more stuff and is there a better place to set up shop? :P

Sounds good to me, would be a easier way to trade.

probably dc will lag like hell with lots of people in the same room. the idea is nice, but u can put that on your pro page, a link that goes to your personal shop.

I agree with the fact that this is seen in a lot of free 2d/3d mmo's i Just don't think that it fits into this game as well as it does others.

The games that have this have many large cities people sit in, however, anywhere in Outwar is accessible in under 5 minutes of moving which would make only 1-2 areas places where we would see a lot of people sitting afk (and lagging the room).

damn, you and your shitty ideas...AGAIN?

gtfo of here with that sh!t or ill report you for harassment and flaming.


also if they couldnt find a way to make it so it wouldnt lag dc then it could just be a link in profile under your tradeblock link.

wouldn't that lag player profiles more so every time you try to attack people it takes longer to load?

Not one bit. People wont be going to more profiles then usual.

There is something called Auction

That still exists? Rofl. I forgot about it :p Auction is only one way though and gives the buyer control. The personal shop gives the seller control as there won't be a time limit.

This goes together with my other idea about personal shops.

This is how it works. You will be somewhere in DC and you put somthing on your personal shop. When you do that you dont dissapear from that spot like you normaly do in like 5 minutes.

I think it's a decent idea and would give the game a true RPG feeling but then again there's the issue everyone's saying with lag. I'm not sure how that will work out.

well even if there is lag for purchassing it. it doesnt change the fact that you dont have to wait for the other person to come and accept it. So id take a few minutes wait over a few hours anyday.

Would be laggy for those not even wanting anything either, also, it'd be less laggy and make more sense if we could just set up auto accept prices through our Trade Block.

huhm firts i have to say :P bad ideas don;t excist :o just bad reactions. concerning the guy with the crappy respons lol :P

ALthough this is seen in2d/3d games :O it oes nto fit in outwar simply because we already got trade block :O

ALthough they could put trade block into dc :O so vendors can go there and search the sellers stores :o this iddea doesn't go together with tradeblock, so it's or trade block or this :P
While this is a far more realistic idea then trade block and i like it personnaly better :P

People talking about lag this lag that -_-.
Lag mainly gets caussed by the users ;)

I think what you mentioned goes back to someone else's thread about Personal Shops and such. It'd be way helpful to have such a thing in the game.

I'd stick to the version that doesn't revolve around sitting in DC - The game is also too small and easily navigated (err DC rather) to make sitting on any specific spot worthwhile, also, considering you can't see who is on spots before/ahead of you.

PlayaFoSho's idead about Personal Shop wouldn't revolve around DC and I'm pretty sure would be welcome by the general Outwar public.

I'm aware, hence I said stick to that original idea :).
