Dubayoo Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 ...so I have that objective that makes you build 25 tanks. I need to build a factory, so I go to the market to buy 5 aluminum. I sort the aluminum purchases by descending order, and see the top purchase is $1,400 per unit, so I go to post an order for $1,401... ...and I get this message: "Because you are a new nation, you cannot buy resources at prices outside of +15%/-15% the average market price for the resource. This is to prevent new nations from being created to immediately trade away all of their money. Using alliance banks, or other trade manipulation to avoid this restriction may result in your nation being removed or banned from Politics & War." Why... Not only does this make my life difficult despite being an inquisitive player that wants to see how the game works to get the most out of it, but it doesn't even make sense. If I wanted to trade away all my money to another account, why would I buy resources below the average market price? If anything, I would buy resources above the average market price.

WISD0MTREE Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 This could be fixed if Sheepy fixed how the average price was calculated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dubayoo Posted May 10, 2017 Author Share Posted May 10, 2017 Same thing just happened today with food. I can't buy 150 food for $83 each. Ugh...

Dubayoo Posted May 11, 2017 Author Share Posted May 11, 2017 ...and now, I can't post aluminum purchases to build military buildings with because the marginal price of $1402 is too far below the average price. Seriously, why can't you guys just change the restriction to focus on marginal instead of average prices?

Azkar Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 I don't know how the average price is even calculated, but it's not helpful. I see so many stupid offers put up on the market because someone just plugged the "average" price into the offer window. The whole market interface could use an overhaul.

Dubayoo Posted May 14, 2017 Author Share Posted May 14, 2017 Now, I'm a young nation instead of a new nation, but I still get the message.

Dubayoo Posted May 16, 2017 Author Share Posted May 16, 2017 When you're warring as a "new nation" but can't post ammo purchases because it's below the average market value...

Holton Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 When you're warring as a "new nation" but can't post ammo purchases because it's below the average market value... i just sent your nation food, aluminum, and munitions to make up for the frustration. Can you accept personal trade offers below average price? (ie - free) Quote Superbia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yang Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 I know right? The period is way too long imo. I almost ragequit the game a few times when I first started playing because of all the bugs and limitations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dubayoo Posted June 9, 2017 Author Share Posted June 9, 2017 It's been fixed to 30%, but I don't deal with it anymore.

Bortwald Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Now average food price is 20. The reality is that if I want to place a "buy" I should try 86 or 87 for food. To "sell" 88. So I cannot place offers on food market. Nearly the same with lead... Scrap this rule, please! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
