Good Idea?
Yes (7)

No (1)

Similar to the build a safehouse feature but with a store. You could sell items that you looted and buy items off people and resell them.

Should probably need credits or a sh*t load of cash to build, so there wouldn't be hundreds of stores popping up.

This could be done with set current market prices or if enough stores would open it could be a competitive player based market. Which would make it much more realistic.

does it run 24/7? or just when online? Who runs the store when the player is playing? Sounds interesting, but also like it could turn out to be a real headache. Maybe better as an clan perk?

I would think it should be open as long as your character was in the store (whether online or not) and closed/unavailable when he wasn't. It's not that different from Dead Frontier's market system except, they're not privately owned but, everything on the market is sold by other players.

I would shoplift at your store.

well you could just auction whatever you're selling at your store. go looting and killing some zombies. then return back to the auction house to collect the money.

I like the idea of a guild storefront of sorts. It feels more realistic than an invisible or NPC secured auction house. Big guilds would certainly profit... more safehouses and more people to run them, I'd assume. Spraycans would become more useful for advertising, but I wonder if that would quickly get as obnoxious as SYN spam.

@Chernobog, it won't get obnoxious as SYN spam if the Devs placed a blasted bulletin board in our clanhouses!!
