  1. Greetings fellow pilots and forum watchers, I think it is time for a -small- auction revamp.

    Quantity Changes:

    MCB-25 - Increase to 2000/2500.
    MCB-50 - Increase to 2000/2500.
    SAB-50 - Increase to 2000/2500.

    Xenomit - Increase to 100.

    Log-Disks - Increase to 5.

    Design Changes:

    Remove Sapphire, Jade, Crimson, Amber. Reasoning behind this is that they serve no particular function since their inception long ago, and it will be burying down a lost era.

    Additions:

    PET-10 Fuel - Quantity 1000 under Hourly
    PET-10 Pet - under Weekly

    Remove:

    Slot-CPU 2
    Slot-CPU 3 (Unsure)

    Justification of changes: Darkorbit Trade / Auction have been operating under mostly the same quantities for a very long time. In this era of massive consumption, it seems fit to raise the bar on some items, and add some new in.

    Laser Ammo going up by 100% will allow for users to secure a higher a higher amount of ammo, as it can be difficult sometimes for players to get, especially mid-level players just starting to explore outside their quests.

    Xenomit being inflated by 1000% to reflect modern usage of resources.
    Log Disks being raised from 3, to 5 helps with those players who are hitting road bumps and rely on auction to help out.

    Now some will probably scream "NEIN" over the removal of those 4 designs from trade, but currently they serve no use but to confuse newer players into thinking they represent something, when they are from an era a while ago. It was nice while it lasted with them, but they serve no primary function anymore, and it will help towards getting users associated with the bonus type designs, increasing competition (by a little amount to a large amount depending on server).

    The addition of 1000 PET-10 fuel is a way for those who go through fuel at large amounts to be able to get a small amount from auction, reducing the load on their URI by 250 (small amount for some, painfully annoying for others).
    The addition of the PET to auction will probably get some backlash, but it just seems time for it to get pushed in, after all these years. On a weekly basis to ensure not every random player and their dog will be able to get one, but it will allow more players to experience a nice little addition and possibly get boosted up a bit from their current era.

    The removal of the Slot CPU 2/3 probably won't come as a surprise to most, we need to push users towards using the best equipment possible, although as noted I'm not so sure about removing the CPU 3 (I don't know about other servers so I leave that as a gray area).
    The slot 2 CPU had it's run and it's time to go, serves no purpose other than limiting players who don't understand the massive slots needed to run with.

    To conclude / tl;dr, these changes are open to suggestion, they reflect the way I see the auction system, and may not concur with you, so feel free to post any ideas / opinion / etc.

    Just would like more logdisks(becuz everyone need thousands of them) and more xenomits becuz 100 xenomit in auction is still ridiculous when its gone in my 10 shots so 10 secs
     
  3. 100 Xenomit would be the compromise, although I could say maybe 500 to 1000 would be more realistic based on the massive usage of it In Game.
     
  4. leave the designs as youre only playing credits anyways, and barely anything, decrease P.E.T 10 fuel, i wanna be able to get some compared to UFE cube shooters, I like the P.E.T in weekly auction,the cpu-3 needs to be in there, its a way to gradually work towards the 4. i also think they should actually have special events like they claimed, havent seen any yet.

    i got all mine from gate spins, if youre using it in shots, only use it when you get xeno back, much more productive.
