Trading on the Black Market in PS?


What do you all think are the chances of Outfits/People from 2 different factions meeting some were and trading a few buggies of stuff?

I'll get all my merc buds and set up a time and place for a swap but, then I'll whistle and my squad will jump up out of hiding and blow the other guys to bits. Take all there gear, jack there rides, and haul all of it back to our secret outpost.

probably not


only trading that'd actually work, without the chance of being blow apart, would be your own Faction, or if you actually knew the person you are trading with, but other than that id be too risky and no one will do it. there will probably be trading between factions at the beginning but soon there will be far too many double-crosses to count so no one will want to risk it again. or something like that. i really dont know. i was typing this just to see if my avatar would show up, but it still sounds about right doesn't it...

I will be organizing lots of these 'trades'. I arrange to meet with an outfit at a certain place and time and then we 'trade'. Or at least trade some ammo at high velocity.

Afterwards I take all the vehicles that aren't in flames.

Uh oh, I have given away my top secret plan, now I will never be able to ambush helpless NC/TR.

Like we(TR) would even think about trusting you Vanu scum! You might be able to pull a fast one with the NC, but not us of course!!

Seeing how things have no real value, as in $$

I dont think we will ever see a black market type thing.

I would be worried about being accused of being a traitor or a cheater for meetig up with an enemy faction and making trades.

All ya got to do....


all ya got to do is bring a highly renowned sniper/max unit squad... and do the trade then... and let the other guys know you have them watching your back... and or you could do tradeing in the warp gates under protection of fire

And I would want the other empires reject excuses for somewhat dangerous objects why? If you HAVE TO HAVE a chaingun, then kill someone and take it.

That's exactly why there won't be a black market. Nobody is trusting enough. Plus, as hamma said, nothing has any real value anyways. So if, for some strange reason, you decided you needed vanu guns, you should just go kill some vanu and take their guns. Of course you could save yourself the trouble of finding all of their hiding places.... just paint some flashlights purple and shine them on people, it'll have more or less the same effect.
