Street Vendors

There's got to be some way of getting rid of all the excess stash that you have piled away in ur burrow.So why not allow some way of selling your stuff and earning some form of currency in exchange. Thoughts?

No. Just drop it for gods sake.

You can try to trade it to other survivors, or just drop it.

The beauty of this game is it's sanbox and people can trade/swap/peddle their kit if they chose to do it and however they feel is best to do it - and that makes it far more interesting!

What would you prefer to do? Ask around , make a few contacts and arrange for a swap/trade at a "safe zone" with someone you hardly know, knowing anything could happen and the whole trade could turn into a bullet festival at any time? Or go onto some boring inventory screen and acrue "currency" or safely aquire equipment that you should be getting the excitement of finding/stealing/looting? Which do you think is the better game experience?

It's a no brainer - D ay Z is about players creating the experience!

I will be your street vendor. Bring me 5 DMR mags and I will give you a coke.

I'm all for adding options, and I've supported the idea of pre-apocalypse money still being present in Chernarus as decorative collector-crap. (people have to learn MONEY is not the same as ECONOMY)

But, (and it's a big BUT) If there are NPCs or scripted barter / shop mechanics added to DayZ, I will not be a happy bunny.

Everything should be player created. That's the entire point.

The world is supposed to be dead, we're the only survivors.

There will be no NPC interaction, as stated by rocket.
