Enabling the Trade Site for Console Players

No!!!!! I hate PC trade system it's garbage

Im excited about the changes since there are changes coming to console trade, and thats a big big plus.

I can already see a couple of big advantages:

Live search
Tab pricing?
Ignore list so I can ignore the pesky price fixers since I can see who is selling and chose to not interact with them
More convenience in finding items

Add to that the statements of how Path of Exile needs to be on both platforms( pc/mac + console), cross platform vision etc

Thanks again

It will take getting used to but being able to direct whisper utilising the login to my xbox profile on the website, resulting in a whisper ingame where i can get invite etc = nice !

trading on console so much better than pc

who want to trade 1c item when you are doing map and guys keep spamming whispers
just look at this all step you should to for trade 1c
1-get out the map
2-invite the guy
3-find item
4-click on profile for trading
5-put the gear and accepting
imagine between this steps guys stuck in loading screen or......
how much time you waste for trade 1c item and awful is
so many time i just ignore ppl whisper for 2c-10c item because not worth the time or...

but in console all you should do is just open your offers and accept that's it you done and how quick is that

for years i really hope they bring console trade for pc not take backwards steps for destroying console.....

dont do this GGG you gonna lose so much player on console

PC trade system is so BAAAAAAAAAAAD

Potentially this is the best change to PoE console trading. But it has to be well executed:
1. We need some kind of Awakened PoE Trade integrated into the console (loot filters were integrated so we know that it's possible)
2. The speed of merging Playstation and Xbox trades and further merging with PC trade markets.

Welp, looks like im switching to ssf for good then. No way im doing PC trade with the added benefit of being bugged amd/or harassed by xbox, goofball, message spam.

Please, please, please for the love of the lord Jesus, do not take away the trade market, I really love Path as it is on console, having an auction house is so fucking great, just playing in the market is fun, please do not make it some backwards ass browser/message and take a billion years for each transaction.

I sell tons of things a day, listing loads of things for prices in all different catagories, while mapping, getting to manage other things going on in my life and still getting to have a say in a fun market in a fun game, please don't kill this, this takes away content and makes the game worse.

that will absolutely annihilate the current market and a great deal of my interest in this game sadly, the trade market is required for the way I plau now.

This change would be an abysmal nightmare for me, I cannot live in this game to run a trade league, I have other things going on. This will destroy my ability to craft, my ability to make builds, basically every way I am capable of playing the game.


This effectively shuts me out of path of exile, I just wanna participate, I love the game, please.. please do not do this.

new meme
Do you guys not have phones?
Do you guys not have pc?

"GGG: we hate the console community"

So I just got this news from sirgog on YouTube. I’m in no way a veteran player and this is the first post I’ve made. I’ve really gotten into POE this league and have been playing at least 8 hours a day and really excited to see where I get on the leaderboards next season in hardcore and really loving the game and the culture surrounded it. I play on Xbox and accept that I scum, so my opinion is essentially worthless but regardless I’m not looking forward to this change, I prefer to do things in game on the Xbox and the trade market has been working great for me. Obviously it could be improved quite a bit and I understand the aim to move towards cross play and that makes me leak a bit semen with excitement. I would like GGG to consider leaving trade market in game as well as new system so pc and console players could use either or both methods of trading.

"console" once again ... year by year console destroying computer gaming experience..
we're supposed to play full assisted game in the future just because of these 8 buttons console kids..

Hi,

I can understand the philosophy of not making trading too easy. I do think though that the gaming world has changed from what it used to be.

As an older gamer (late 50's) I have seen some amazing things happen with technology. Still remember clearly being so scared playing Doom when it came out, the improvement in PC's from the birth of the 8086 processor to ground breaking consoles like the amiga.

The graphics, sound and complexity of modern games would have been from out of a science fiction novel if we could have seen how fast technology has come. That is the important point, moving forward. Stagnation is death in the gaming world, no matter how much you love a game, so POE is so good as it constantly brings new content to life.

I play on PC and PS5 and if I am honest with myself I have noticed how much slower I am to do things in game and to react, type messages and so on. This is a frustration of getting older of course, but it is also a frustration that is not needed. I don't like to waste other peoples time who have to be more patient when trading with me as it takes me a bit longer to find the item, put the currency in the window and then check it is correct.

I get the concern that modern players consume content so quickly. Having a trading "brake" to slow people down, or make it more difficult to get by having to contact multiple people until you eventually find someone willing to stop what they are doing and group up to sell you the item is the solution that POE has chosen.

I personally believe the QoL improvements that a functional "trade market" in game feature would bring far outweighs the negatives. From a player perspective it makes scamming impossible (switching items etc) and saves the player so much time. And the saving of time is the important thing, we cannot make more of it, and in the modern world the pressures on our time are many and varied. There are so many things all vying for our attention and so the time we spend on any game has to be time well spent. Are there things that need addressing to make a functional trade market that is not abused, yes, but in my opinion the effort would be well worth it in the end.
