The Xunlai Marketplace thread
Darksun
Any trade system that requires the players to run back and forth between people congesting the streets of a town sucks. It Sucked in ROSE, it sucks in Shaiya, it just sucks. The XMP is way better.

Stalls would be better than what we have now, since they would allow AFK selling, but the Xunlai Marketplace we can suspect with the 'gathered data' during those GW.dat browsings would be better than stalls, since it would allow selling while playing.
Officer Dick
since we have limited ppl per district and all that, a stall system would not be that great, altough anything is better then nothing...
in lineage 2 for example, they have that system too, but everyone that comes in the city can see your stall, not only the ppl in the district. It is a nice system, but there are many other better systems that could be implemented...
the only difference between what we have and the stall system is that we can go afk, which is pretty much all i need to get rid of what ive been saving XD

MithranArkanere
Yup, that's why auctions should not be allowed, otherwise someone may feel the temptation to use them.
That would be bad.

wow, this thread seems to be here for waaay too long without a dev stopping by... either they want to surprise us, or they are not sure if it is going to exist or not themselves...

No info yet because it was all rumors. Just something to get us excited for a while.
The trade system and the economy in GW are dead and have been dead for a while. No XMP rumors are going to fix that.

I guess i shoulda put Answers instead of Info

I'm still hoping something is going to happen with this. If it isn't, I think it's bad form of Anet not immediately putting the rumors to rest.
Feminist Terrorist
I'm very interested in this, and hope it happens, soon. It might get me to come back to the game for more than a nanosecond.
MithranArkanere
Well, with every update an in each event I wait for something new about this...
It's alll "Maybe in the birthday", "Maybe next event", "maybe after summer", "maybe..."...
It would be easier if we knew for sure if something like this is real or not.

Took a screen shot of the conversation on March 5th 2008. XMP = Xunlai Market Place. It is just a rumor. Translation: not likely to be implemented imo.
Vazze
Rumor, sure. The coders at anet are so bored that they started coding rumors into gw.dat (and deleting them ... after a certain guru thread was getting too popular).
KycooGhost
is it possible that the coders put it in for Utopia, which is now EotN and GW2, and than when the project was changed they didn't take it out right away? Could we expect this to be in GW2?
FrAnt1c??
Anyone played lineage II? A Trade system like that would be nice

Hahahaha, Gaile's quote; "It's just a rumor AT THE MOMENT"
But yeah, she either doesn't know or won't say. The XMP isn't a cancelled project, it's something they have been developing they someone chanced across because their .dat file has ZERO encryption, so they removed it to keep their big dumb secret...a secret.

I think I asked, "is the XMP still a rumor at the moment?".
There was like 5 other people there at the time, was surprized someone logged that part.

Yeah, it's nice, in a primitive, lagfest, clicking around forever looking for something kind of way.

Do you nay-sayers really think that it wouldn't have been denied by now if it wasn't being worked on?
It may never get developed to a point where we actually see it, but it is being worked on. If it wasn't, Gaile would have said so. She hasn't denied it because she's been caught denying things in the past that she was incorrect on and her credibility is on thin ice as a result. A-Net doesn't want to see her take another shot over this, so the official comment is basically "no comment."

I don't particularly mind either way but its not going to happen anytime soon. Much rather they work on mini expansions, holidays, mini games, and skins =P

I'd trade every forthcoming festival, third year mini's and new weapon skins for the XMP. Something of substance beats tat, IMO.

Not all projects make it into the game though.
But given the fact that it is (or was?) already in the GW.DAT, maybe we can expect a "surprise" for GW's 3rd birthday.

Got to love how witty our GMs are, they sure got a laugh out of all the pointless predicting you guys made. Seriously you thought you outwitted them just to get shown how dim witted you truly are. Maybe next time you wont make such and uproar about no solid evidence.
P.S.
Don't pay attention to what I write; I don't even know what you’re talking about
