In regards to the trade window slice....


This was originally in a whole other thread, but I moved it here because it was starting to wander from the original post (original post was about smuggler scamming)


Many have suggested a trade window slice where both parties could accept or decline the slice.


Sign me up for this! Imagine being able to slice a weapon, don't like the roll? Try it all again!


This will never happen for the following reasons:


  1. The exploit possibility of this method is overwhelming

  2. The (fail) build in would not work because of how people like to scream

The only thing I could think of would be something like an ID window where the smuggler would act as a medium. Example of this would be (hopefully) after the re-vamp and would go down like this:



  1. Player and Smuggler agree on slice type (damage or speed)

  2. Player and Smuggler agree on total buyout (example 3500 credits) or a unit price, like 100 credits per %

  3. The max amount of money goes into escrow (example 3500 credits max goes in)

  4. Slice then goes down, its a 25% slice. Escrow gives the smuggler 2500, player gets 1000 back

  5. The process is then complete

Thoughts?
