How will trading in SC work? Will there be some kind of auction house like in MMOs? Will it be possible to not only sell goods, e.g datas for rare ore-fields, can I make something like a profit sharing for the ore?asked by Wiborg1978
TL;DRTrading will come with a cost that varies by how safe the deal is, but profit-sharing deals would initially have to be honoured personally by players, with automatic system support not expected in the short term.
I think what's being asked here is can I not only sell something for money but could I perhaps say, 'here is information on an ore field but instead of giving UEC I want to take 30% of whatever money you make from mining it', that's a good question. Definitely going to have the ability to do some trading, there will be some kind of cost to do the trade and depending on where it is or depending on how safe it is, that cost would be a larger amount than if it was a no holds barred dodgy pirate deal. I don't know about the profit sharing, giving someone 20-30%, I think definitely in the first stage of the implementation of the game, that would be a deal you would have to do personally. The other player would have to honour the contract he had with you versus it being automatic in the system. Longer term... you never know but certainly not in the short term because there is quite a few other things to get done first. Anyway, there you go I hope that helps.
