[Economy] Private Player Shops

[Daedalus007]

Suggestion:

Add Private Player Shops in-game.

 

Details:

Basically add a 'Player Shop' button and then type in the person's name (must know their exact in-game name).

Then once shop is open you can see Daycare services, Leveling services, WTB, WTS, WTT.

If buying, you hit the WTB button and it asks you to select which pokemon(s) you want to purchase and then drag/drop your offer into the window. After that, it says the message is sent and the receiving person gets the offer next time they come online. Both still have to be online to complete the trade (so that scamming/exploits are reduced).

For the WTS part you can put in your pokedollars and pokemon to offer and send the message and they'll receive it when they are online. Still requires both to meet up in person and do the trade/sale.

For the WTT it works just like the first two options. Having this 'messaging' system that still requires manual online meetup for both parties is a convenience and the existing mailbox system is already there. This would merely be an expansion of it.

I really feel that having a 'Player Profile' button in-game would also help a great deal with enhancing the experience and expanding it beyond just relying on the forums. 90% of players who play games never even visit game forums for a variety of reasons (censorship, fear of in-game consequences for saying the 'wrong' thing unintentionally, privacy, unfamiliarity, walls of text and reading and annoying flashing animated signatures that they can't turn off).

 

Feasibility:

Needs a great deal of custom coding depending on the existing way things are set up. Depends greatly on the time/skill of the development person/team responsible for coding and UI development. A lot better than telling players 'check the forums' whenever they ask something and then having them uninstall & delete the game instead.
