Trading system? Hello I am hunter,I right this post hoping a dev of the game reads this and adds it into the game.I propose that the creators of pvz add a system between players that lets them trade ...
The problem I see is the main use for such a system is to obtain limited edition items. (Everything else is obtainable with time.) But, what could a new player offer to an older player that could possibly be worth limited edition items, even then, who would give them up? Don't get me wrong, there are several items I would like to add to my sticker book and trading is one way to do it.
The other problem is a trade option will legitimize sticker value. The way things are stickers have no actual value, one person or ten thousand people can have an item and it makes no true difference. (Aside from Egos) Once a sticker can be traded things like the Unicorn Chomper and holiday items gain value through their rarity. Trading may seem like a good way to get missed stickers but in the end it is more likely to ensure they are never re-released again. (Imagine if RUX abilities became tradable and so they never re-released them if fear of angering the player base because they devalued their stickers.)
I meant older as in a player who has had it longer. I couldn't think of a better term. (experienced didn't sound right since playtime =/= skill) But, you did add a good point, even if it doesn't make sense it does happen. Though, I figure it will be so rare it doesn't justify adding the system.
Honestly, it makes more sense to just make everything available once the time gates are no longer needed. GW3 comes out and they don't want to deal with it anymore. Alright, RUX is now a permanent fixture and his inventory resets each time you buy something. (Buy a RUX ability and it will refill with another random sticker. The more of your stickerbook you have filled the more likely it is RUX exclusive until all he sells is consumables.) Once whatever they are buying time for comes out there is no reason to time gate anything anymore. Problem solved, no trading system needed. The only flaw comes from the boss hunt drops, which could either become a permanent portal fixture (like private matches now) and simply require you build a team before entering (which would likely help anyway) or be added into RUX's inventory at a price.
