JaceMatai Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 First, let me say that I have four level 50s, two on each side. I'm tired of grinding dailies and buying countless packs just to get nothing of value! (which is another story.) Basically, I think dailies take too long, and would love to buy credits with coins, similar to GW2 gold for Gems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lucotas Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 what if you buy cartel packs and you sell them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tslok Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 I've made the same suggestion the other day. So here is again my YES WE WANT to "Credits for Cartel Credits" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SithKoriandr Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 You can already do this. Pick an item on the Cartel Market, buy it, then sell it on the GTN. Packs are about 300,000 credits or more per pack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's nice. Then there should be no Problem having Credits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beattlebilly Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I'd rather buy Cartel Coins with Credits. But then again, what ever I want from the market will eventually end up on the GTN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jagrevi Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 (edited) This is just a horrible idea. Reason -> The game as it is needs credit sinks to destroy existing currency to control inflation as currency is created in the system. Just having a "add currency to the economy" button is one of the worst ideas I've heard here in a long time. It's entirely generated currency, it doesn't come from anywhere. --> Massive Runaway Inflation Just buy something from the market and sell it on the GTN, it's not that hard.

The reason GW2 is able to do it is because the in game currency value of gems fluctuates based on amount of gems in the system. Which basically means the more gems there are in the system less in game currency you get in trade. And it's a HORRIBLE return. It would be like... You shelling out $20 for 500k SWTOR credits in comparison. Stick to flipping via selling the Cartel items available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZionHalcyon Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Bad idea. Right now, Cartel Market is a cash cow for novelty gifts and stuff that can help you level faster, but not really make you better than anyone. You do a direct cartel coin to credit exchange and that IS pay-2-win, which despite what people say, really hasn't happened yet. So no, don't want it - and trust me, I understand its convenience. But just because something is convenient doesn't mean its what's healthiest for the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icebergy Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Another no here from me. They are already toeing this line with the fact that you can sell stuff from the Cartel Market on the GTN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically, I think dailies take too long, and would love to buy credits with coins, similar to GW2 gold for Gems. 1. Subjective opinion: What you suggest is pay-to-win. It rewards the person with the most money instead of the person who invested the most time and effort. If you have so much money that you would spend it to buy in game currency from a greedy corporation.....donate to charity instead. 2. Objective opinion: Unlimited currency generation leads to hyperinflation. We tried that in real life. Trust me, it didn't work out very well. 3. Like others have suggested before me, you can already sell Cartel Packs on the GTN. You can get a good price between 200-500k on most servers per pack.
