Trader Suggestions and Complaints

[Ragolution]

I'm going to make the shortest retort with the best argument:

If the prices are "too high" you can assume whoever did the prices (Silver) wants to see a lot less of them.

Then why is alien tech cheap? Yea, I don't think so. Sorry Rag. :P Though obviously I know better than to sell alien shit.

And like I said, pistols are incredibly expensive for mere pistols. Noobs are the only ones who buy 9mm for example, and noobs can't even afford it.

Thing is, 'noobs' shouldn't be able to afford guns right after joining. We want people to attempt to stick around longer to get more money. If every new player could afford the majority of items, it would turn into what happened to SRP once before, where everyone is decked out in Skats and G36s.

And again, prices aren't my problem. As there is nothing I can do about it, except complain to Silver.

My concern is more for the players who get killed five minutes in then ragequit and never come back because they can't buy another 9mm pistol. Hell, I nearly quit on day one because I was killed and lost my gear. Only reason I didn't is I found a new pistol by pure chance. No ammo, but still a pistol.

Well, yea. The other weapons, that's another story. But like I said, when the worst shotgun is the most expensive and the best shotgun is the least expensive, it's obvious someone made a mistake just for an example. Either way I've consulted Silver/Exile on the prices. We'll see if he likes what I have to say or not.

Actually, if you think about it Spades, the Combat Shotguns price is actually rather fair. Its accuracy compared to the other shotguns is horrendous, and the fact that all it has going for it is speed means that it has a rather fair price. The hunting shotgun, I believe, is one of the more accurate shotguns while the SPAS-12 is the most damaging, I believe.

Really now? Well, accuracy is sort of pointless for a shotgun. I mean, it's a shotgun. However if you mean the Hunting shotgun has the worst spread of fire compared to the hunting shotgun, that would make sense to the price (though next I'll be complaining that the damage is stupid, lol).

Combat Shotguns are good for up close and personal, fast paced combat. That's why I used to generally carry one.

Hunting Shotguns are better for medium range fighting, I would guess.

SPAS-12s would be for the up close and personal, first to shoot dies combat.

I'll have to check out the weapon spread vs damage of the hunting shotgun. I still think its current price is too expensive, but it's got more reason behind it than I expected. Meanwhile the combat shotgun, I might feel less bad about selling them cheaper.

I don't like the cap because it contradicts the rank system just saying, if someone has a high enough rank, they'd have armor and weapons.  Just sayin'.

[Khorn]

I probably won't allow people to get other Professions anymore anyways.

My complaint is that, traders should not have more then 1-2k. Buy items, scatter them around. It's fun for players and it makes scavengers a good business. Take the challenge traders! This is especially important for when we get on RP_Salvation and there are good hiding spots.
