Trading in PT26?

Vezna31 · 11-06-2024, 05:47 PM

Is there any chance that the Card Market in PT26 will have a section for trading? Whereas I have a duplicate Mickey Welsh Diamond worth 50,000 points (but nobody is offering) but need a Paul Konerko Gold and someone can offer me their Konerko worth about the same?

Just a thought...

I’d guess there’s a zero percent chance because people will manipulate the hell out of it immediately and constantly.

Agreed.

Yeah,, it would make selling irons for 1,000,000 PP's look infantile.

And, BTW, nobody would trade you Konerko for Welch. They;d just list Konerko for 75 K and it would be gone in half an hour.

This isn't real baseball. That's what the Classic game is for. There's already enough of folks taking advantage of a complex game that can't be policed fully to make it worse with trading.

To be fair the “concept” of trading in PT would be awesome. I just think it’s impossible to implement in a way that isn’t game breaking abusive.

Like Burch alluded to… the game already has enough ways to cheat the system.
