    Poe has outgrown Trade

    Posted: 16 Jun 2019 06:37 AM PDT

    It's time the community face the facts and demand that GGG do something about Trade. The problems have become so severe that it is damaging the reputation of the game. Here is just a few of the problems:

    - Tons of sellers not replying, usually due to overwhelming influx of trade requests.

    - Trade API is often overwhelmed, down, or just plain broken.

    - Scammers are running rampant and preying on new or inexperienced players.

    - Inability to trade with a potential buyer while running Delve, bossing, or any other intense activity.

    - The use of a website to trade instead of something in-game is archaic, clunky, and immersion breaking.

    - Accidental miscounts of currency trading often results in a poor trade experience.

    - GGG's notion of "fast trades" ruining the game is unproven. Currently, the entire process of trading is frustrating and time consuming. That doesn't encourage players, especially new players, to want to play the game. If players can't get the items they need for their builds, they are more likely to quit. Forcing players to grind for a hundred hours just to get their basic equipment is bad game design.

    - (added via edit) The language barrier can also be a problem. We have seen this acutely with the influx of new Korean players who have an entirely different understanding of trade etiquette.

    Something needs to be done. I remember back before the Trade websites existed. It was the dark age. But it has been years since the Trade API and websites have been established and it is clear that they can no longer handle the influx of trades. As the population of Poe has grown, so too must the way we Trade. It is no longer feasible to whisper each and every player we wish to trade with, go to their hideout, and trade by hand with them. The system has been straining under the weight to the point that it is now broken. GGG, you MUST address this issue. While I understand that some players prefer limited or no trade, a large portion of players want better and faster trades. The constant threads requesting an Auction House are proof of that. It's a lingering issue that is only getting worse and worse. I'm not explicitly advocating an Auction House, but some kind of in-game instant delivery Trade system needs to happen and needs to happen soon.

    Chris, if you read this, please understand that players both want and need a better Trading system. Hundreds and hundreds of suggestions, solutions, and compromises have been posted over the years on how to fix it. Please listen to some of them. There has to be a better way than what currently is. A statement, even a vague one, that GGG is actively working on a replacement for the current Trade system would be greatly appreciated by the community.

    (added via edit) The Trade Manifesto is over 2 years old, written when Poe was a much smaller game. Since then, the population has exploded, GGG has been bought by Tencent, and the Leagues are almost entirely different. Poe has evolved a LOT since that time. So yes, I do believe a new statement from Chris about the problems & any developments regarding Trade would be greatly appreciated.

    Why does dying in the Elder fight still port you to Oriath instead of your hideout?

    Posted: 16 Jun 2019 06:56 AM PDT

    Is it some kind of in joke punishment for people that aren't playing god tier builds or just a massive oversight because half the players don't even reach that content?

    It's a minor complaint but it's been around for as long as I've been playing and it's a minor annoyance.

    If trade has become the main issue to complain about now, Legion was a huge step forward

    Posted: 16 Jun 2019 09:01 AM PDT

    Trade was always a thorn, but never a dominant one. Its refreshing to see no other headlines for once except some technical stuff. Maps are great again, Legion mobs are fun challange, the league mechanic is simple but offers enough ways to customize and improve on your rewards.

    ​

    I have played POE for over half a decade and actually considered completely dropping it the last year. Thank you GGG for listening and returning the game to the roots,

    GGG fix your servers please !!!

    Posted: 16 Jun 2019 06:05 AM PDT

    As in a title, today i already have lost around 30 splinters and 3 maps just to some wierd crash of the game (in last half hour), it just apeared "operation timeout" i had to log in and when i was coming to my HO i had no open portals anymore (before crash i had 5) and no loot from map in inventory. So please GGG fix your servers.

    I just got 'disconnected from instance' on my very first 4-army Domain, with 30 seconds left and having done really well. No portals were in my hideout when I logged back in immediately. All drops, all progress, all emblems wasted. Extremely frustrated with these server issues...

    My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.

    Can ANYTHING be done about these servers?

    Posted: 16 Jun 2019 09:11 AM PDT

    This league is actually FUN. It’s a damn shame about the state of the servers and the overall game.

    Posted: 15 Jun 2019 01:39 PM PDT

    Just like everyone else here, I felt the need to express my opinion.

    GGG really needed a win after Betrayal and Synthesis. Betrayal had great numbers because of the whole Blizzcon fiasco and D3 refugees, but it still wasn't a great league. Then came Synthesis and well..it was good after the patch, but still far from what is LEGION.

    Legion is badass.

    I really hope GGG can iron everything out in the next day or 2 because it seems they're hemorrhaging players for terrible reasons (server instability, game instability, various bugs, etc.).

    Just wanted to express that the core mechanic of Legion with the loot and varied items from previous leagues is amazing and you guys did a good job developing it.

    EDIT: Wow, this blew up! Remember to keep it civil, folks. :)
