| Author | How if diamond can be sell in market? |
|---|
Many people complain about upgrading castle earlier which can be done by real money.
They said it can make the game unfair.
So how if this game allow diamond to be sell in market?
It mean that someone can buy diamond with real money and then sell it in market in order to get more value for gold.
If we exchange diamond with gold, we will get 2500 gold.
So, someone can sell it in market with price let's say 3000 gold.
Everyone will benefit from that:
1. Person who use real money will get better exchange rate.
2. Person who don't want to use real money can collect gold as many as he can and trade it with diamond. With that diamond he can build certain castle constructions earlier.
It can makes the game balance again.
3. Developer will get more real money because it can make much more diamond bought with real money.
We will get 2 advantage: |
| Well its perfect and everyone wins but seeing as no one ever listens to us players it is never going to happen. Great idea though. |
yea man !!
awesome idea! |
Nice idea, exept it'll never be implemented)
Because this way people who'd have to pay real money would instead spend game gold, and admins can't buy food with game gold) |

I think if this idea make the game creator makes more real money, why don't they implement it.

No, diamonds must be buy with real money first before it exist.
About exchange rate of diamond, let the market set it. The rate will rise and down according to supply and demand. |

I tend to disagree. I think those that can pay for the bonuses given by diamonds will do so anyway. After all it is a great game and I'm sure it's loved by it's players and every single one of us wants to watch it thrive. However, selling diamonds in the market will only have beneficial effects. Those not able to pay for diamonds will have a way of getting the benefits it offers (although they will have to strive a lot for it), plus selling a diamond for more than 2500 gold (the standard exchange rate) in the market will encourage more players that would actually buy diamonds for in game gold to do so.
All in all, I think it's a win-win situation. After all, in order to be sold in the market, diamonds have to be bought for real by someone. |

I am finished with this game. If we are only complaining and keep playing with rules that we don't like, nobody will take measures. But when there will be no more player playing, then they will think about about what really players need.
And is not the only browser game out there. |

You're assuming that a group of people will constantly put real money in the game, when in fact most people will simply buy early upgrades because that's the most important use of diamonds.
Although I suppose wisards would be willing to invest real money, since they need a lot of gold for their miniarts...
Personaly I'd love to see diamonds sold on the market even for triple cost, but I don't believe it will happen. If it was an option, it would've been implemented on .ru. |
| Bad idea, stop whining. |
| nobody will sell it.. full stop....it's too good to sell. no matter the price. And perhaps, among the upperclass ( Diamonders), they might forbid each other to sell to us. |

This is free market, nobody can forbid anybody.
If the price of diamond is high, some people will think about buying it with real money and selling it to the market. |
| admin never lisen to players, but making them richer might tickle them lol |
I think this is a good idea :)
In an other game, similar at this one, you can actually buy the "diamond" on the market.
Everybody is winning like SpecialOne is saying.
Ppl that buy diamond for gold, will sell it on the market, because the rate is good, and you will allways have ppl buying to sell on market, as well as ppl buyng diamond more because they have not necessarly access to a credit card :)
But true that the diamond systeme give more advantage to the ppl that can buy them.
But then the creator of the game need to make money, and that is very understandable :) |
I find it's an interesting idea too. I just wonder if people would sell their diamonds on the market. They could expect better than 2500 gold, but do people buy diamonds to convert them in gold in the first place?
I think most people will purchase diamonds only to get things gold can't buy. |

I agree with you Kotrin.
But when someone willing to buy diamonds with 7500 gold each, then people who have money will think about it.
10 diamonds will be sell for 75.000 gold. That's a lot of gold.
So, let the market decide.. |
I have played loots of net games, and trust me RL cash is important (what you expect, someone must pay for server, hosting and programmers work).
In all games early or later game cash (i.e. diamonds) will apears on market (probalby ~5000, here - more than admins count, but is statistic calculation), some players will buy diamonds only for sale in market and fast level up. |
u do that.. u'll ruin the entire economy..... an item worth 30k a day could worth 5k tomorrow... because value of gold is adjusted.
You have to understand fundamentals of MMO economy before throwing a suggestion like that.
ANY MMO economy will have such things as point of entry/exit. Hunting CREATE GODL VALUE into the game world. Durability removes GOLD VALUE from game world and so forth. there's an in and out from everything. Most things. With monitored in and out, developer can predict the balance of economy. If things in MMO like rare drops happen too often ( for example, in HWM, we have Meteorite Shard ), then the value of that thing will drop . Definitely. Developer will then adjust the rarity of THAT Item to suit the value they intend it to have.
BUT... if diamonds are to be sold. The value of gold will fluctuate. You might either pump in too much gold into the World, or something unpredictable happens. Bottomline, it'll mess up. |
I completely agree with being able to sell/transfer diamonds. In future maybe use diamonds to get rare arts from another player etc.. using trade forums.
BUT... if diamonds are to be sold. The value of gold will fluctuate. You might either pump in too much gold into the World, or something unpredictable happens. Bottomline, it'll mess up.
As it is now you can exchange diamonds for gold (which materializes instantly out of nowhere) this is where the gold is being pumped into the world and can depreciate the value of gold. But if a diamond is sold on the market then the gold is coming from someone who earned it hunting/working so no new gold is being pumped in or removed. So if anything exchanging the diamond for gold as is now instead of selling on market would cause fluctuation.. I am no econ major so if any assumtion is incorrect please feel free to correct me. |
| I think its a great idea expecially since not everyone has a credit card to buy them and honestly I see them going for like 10,000 gold each |
