it wouldnt b up for bid for that long..like the price would increase by 10% every 5 hours or so

Quote:I was reading your post Nate, and before I got to the end I was thinking that it would be a bad idea..mainly because:
If their was no limit as to what you can sell your car for, or a percentage over the real amount the car is worth, then I would sell a 100k car for 250 million. Therefore I would have a friend buy it and I would get my money that way.. :crazy:
that's exactly why i said i could already foresee people exploiting the system. if it wasn't for that, the game would be so much more fun. too bad others would abuse it and will probably never happen. unless they put a cap on how much more a car can sell for (no more than 300% of it's actual worth or something along those lines....).

Exactly what I was thinking. Somewhere along the lines of 3 times the price, cuz even a Rover is worth what..7.2 million or so. So if you could only get up to 3 times the amount then you would make 21.6 million from them.
If it did come into affect, then I believe their should be an amount of cars you could sell. Something like a 7 car limit. Yet your garage would remain the same, but it would have make some sort of strategic form to this game, now that you can't race for money...

wouldn't this kinda kill bandwidth tho? I imagine it will be more than just a couple of cars during peak hours.
I also think it should be less than 3 times, maybe like 1.5 or whatever. people don't get 3x the value at real auctions.
what if there is at least a police auction kinda thing. the coputer can set up random auctions with some of the cheap to intermediate priced cars. they would sell for a considerable amount less than new cars, but would have less horsepower or like no reliability. it would be like the used car lots on GT2 and GT4. this might be less strenuous on the system.
and if we're continuing this auction idea, what about selling parts too thru auction.
just my $0.02

this is a really good idea but the coding would be really hard i imagine..
MC Car Auction - Juelz_Santana - 10-05-2005

MC Car Auction - LupinIII - 10-05-2005
it goes much higher than monte or even zura, this goes all the way to the big boys morad and c-speed.

i thinks it's a cool idea as well...and it'll help the top guys stay ahead lol..cause everyone is gonna want a killer setup car you know

never thought of that before but that's a really good idea.
I think, though, the auctions should be a two hour thing. Take two hours to put your car up for auction and bidding is 5 minutes per car listed as "up for auction"
