Better ways to encourage bartering during trading
« on: February 19, 2016, 04:56:29 pm »
Here is the idea...

Lets say that weapon merchant currently does not want to buy any new firearms (already bought the desired quota).

Why not have ability, that if you buy a gun from him, you gain ability to sell another gun in its place?

Hey, Mr. Merchant, can I barter this gun for that SMG?
How much to I need to pay extra for that?

That would be really cool.

It would encourage bartering, which fits setting nicely.

Why not? It seems handy to have that option. Hopefully it's not very hard to implement either.

we talk often about merchants and overall social skills, we know they are lacking and we will look into ways to make that part of the game more interesting, any idea and suggestion is appreciated, just letting your guys that we are talking about it, what we choose to do i cant say.
