    Default Auction house...

    Hi all,

    I just felt I had to post how much I hate the auction house even tho Im pretty sure its not the first post about this problem.

    Ive played WoW and EQ quite alot. Ive learned to love their auction houses, in part because of the search engines. Now I feel like im using a broken tool and its quite bugged on top of it... It even makes me wonder if I keep playing this game or just move on to find another one.. Im the kind of player who will pay to get more stuff (premium / VIP ) and have alreay bought stuff even tho im quite early in this game (lvl3 paladin) so I want to have , at least, the basic stuff working correctly.

    ah well... I hope they will work on this soon cause im sure alot of people like me end up playing another game because of trivial stuff like this not working well.

    I mean... you shouldnt have to stay 30 minutes at the auction house trying to sell or buy my stuff the right price when it takes 5 minutes in other games.When I play I want to actually play the game, not figure out prices

    Yeah it's been mentions. Alot! Most everyone agrees that the AH is a piece of *&$# and needs to be fixed. In fact I believe the might be one of the top complaints. But look at the bright side, with the AH prices as out of whak as they are, then the problem is meh... Seriously, way to high prices.

    Hi welcome.
    Yes the Auction House system needs some work.

    We've been told that upgrades to it are in the plan for this year.

    Default AH Stinks

    The AH really needs help and the devs have said they "may" get to it later this year. Pretty sad since LOTR has an auciton house and it was originally the same code as DDO.

    As far as DDO not being WOW, true, but we should take some pointers. I was a paying WOW subscriber for about 8 months and just played the AH; never played the actual content because of RL. Part of me would like to do this with DDO's AH but the limitations (ie you can only bid on so many items, no search, no sort, can only post so many items) really restict what we can and can't do.

    Agreed, DDO is not EQ2 either which I played only for a few months but I would take their guild interface in a heartbeat. And anyone's AH is better than ours.

    You might as well leave now. If something like the AH Search is close to pushing you over the edge your doomed.

    Agreed... It's extremely frustrating because it's been "on the list" since day one and seems like low hanging fruit but if this is killing you...go before you end up shooting up a McDonald's.

    Agreed, this game has a lot of little annoying things,,,,,,,, you either love it, hate it, or deal with it because this game is still like nothing else out there.

    I love it.

    Sadly, the AH is but the top of a long list in this game that doesn't work correctly. The Devs seem to want to spend a lot of time adding content, but forget to update bugs, or spend any though on game balance.

    hopefully you will have a better experience with this game than I am, but if you start getting frustrated this early, Maybe you might want to look @ other options.
