I too ran into Gaile this weekend during one of the events, and she wouldnt even respond to me when I asked about the XMP. She just ignored my questions completely.

I hope they implement it soon, I'm broke and need clear inventory/storage and nothing makes me not want play more than standing in random districts spamming WTS. Selling stuff in GW is broken.

FIX IT ANET!

/end rant.

1000+ Party Search Trade ads in Kamadan/Monastery (during event) is ftl.

Especially if the list sort of "jumps around the place", makes everyones eyes bleed >.<

Right now I wish I had the XMP so I could just stare at the Tome list.

Its hard enough just to seperate the WTBs and WTSs.

The repeat Lion Mask though in the canthan event makes me wonder though.

How many devs are left on GW1? Are there enough to pull off a XMP? Are GW2 devs helping with the XMP for testing reasons?

That leads us to the same questions.

Keep checking the dat file after updates. I gotto learn how to do that myself too, this is like the last thing exciting till the GW2 beta.

Off to do some research!

I doubt Anet has any reasons to release the XMP in GW1 for GW1's sake. It does, however, have every reason to release it in GW1 in order to test and fine-tune it for GW2. We can only hope.

I wouldn't think Gaile would answer. If she knows there is code but not if it's going to be activated then she says anything she gets hammered. Look at the polar bear mini for an example.
This search and trade channel isn't working so I hope they do something.

Operative 14 · Feb 12, 2008, 05:36 AM // 05:36

They'll release it when they release it, if they even do so. No amount of forum posting will change that, and frankly I hope it doesn't.

Just be patient.

Screw selling, i need to buy some upgrades ... and i tell you, it seems harder to buy one icy spear head than getting tormented weapon.

Cacheelma · Feb 12, 2008, 08:42 AM // 08:42

Agreed. I planned to get all those good-looking BMP items but then I realized I will never be able to duplicate the mods on my green Cane & Focus before GW2 is out...

drago34 · Feb 12, 2008, 08:55 AM // 08:55

I really hate when this thread gets brought back up now without a confirmation...haha.

Jongo River · Feb 12, 2008, 09:02 AM // 09:02

Mods is what I mostly want to see from this too. Access to weapon mods is a very important and long neglected aspect of Guild Wars.

MithranArkanere · Feb 12, 2008, 12:50 PM // 12:50

The bst thing I expect from a Market is the wordwide unification of prices.

No need to check forums or ask apraisers. Just look for the item you want to sell!

Jeremy Untouchable · Feb 12, 2008, 03:33 PM // 15:33

i still have hope that this might come thro. would be a awsome thing. I can't get my hopes up to high thou. you guys are right. Its to dang hard to find mods for spears and focus items. I would settle for a npc that trades in them.

Two simple words: Auction House.

Since anet made it very clear over and over again that this is not going to happen, there isn't going to be much that they will do otherwise to fix the monstrosity they call the trade system.

A few pages back, we disscussed how this isn't an Auction House. There is no bidding, no auctions.

Oh and, good job bugging Gaile guys! We gotto keep the pressure on them till we get a positive/negative confirmation.

you have come into this late or something as the Xunlai Marketplace has been part of the dat as recently changed/added as a couple weeks ago, once it was found they did remove it in an update a week or so ago. But this is/was something in the works as recently as right after the HoM changes to minis customized/dedicated

MSecorsky · Feb 12, 2008, 04:43 PM // 16:43

I hope that this mythical Marketplace would include some pretty good sorting. You know it's going to be one huge database if it ever tastes reality, so if the ability to sort by, say, [weapon type, weapon skin, requirement, damage modifier] were in place it would really help to find what we're looking for.

Hypothetically, of course.

Also, while auction house is complex-ish to implement, something like Marketplace is relatively easy compared to that.

MithranArkanere · Feb 12, 2008, 06:31 PM // 18:31

Yup. It would be just a list of items to sort and query. Since the purchases would be just direct, there would be no need to stoe more infor that the seller, the item and the prices.

As far as I can tell for all the raw text files show so far, it would be able to sort by type of item, to sort if it is inscribable or not, to show it is 'maxed' or not...

So imagine it... probably people would start looking for inscribed perfect items only, and if the pries are too high, they may uncheck the perfect or the inscription filters...

Did u even read my post? Im saying very clearly that anet is NOT going to introduce an auction house although that would be a radical solution to the trade issue.
