Not that I dont have a lot of credits but for others who are trying to build up this is just horrible. At least with the lottery system everyone had a chance to snag something good. This will just make the stronger even stronger.
Not to offend anyone... But people are stupid bidding 10+million on a +43 tech hand item. i can't imagine how much a good purple or a good blue will go for.
I would love to see the person who made this auction system up (as one of our galaxy members said, you can´t cause he is probably at window licking competition). I agree with previous comment. With lotto system players had a higher chance to get at least something for reasonable price, some consolation prize. Most of us were trying even for toy blue equpments, because we hoped to get that side prize.
Of course I don´t want to be offensive or anything. I am just trying to say (if players´voices do matter) that unlike most of the updates of the game I really, really, really and deeply dislike this one.
Take care and continue in good work. And please, if you don´t have some new idea for mall, return back to lotto.
I'm thinking the devs thought there was to much money/energy in the system, and this is a way to get it out. Also, give it a few days. With multi million dollar bids, established players will not be able to bid on everything forever.
And will not be bidding on auctions hoping for a consolation prize. The lotteries are actually harder on the smaller players who can't bid on everything, and could in fact USE the lesser blue items, because people like Sandra and me are bidding hoping for consolation prizes. (Sorry newbies). Al least now, if a lesser blue shows up in the auction, it will not be bid on except by people who want that item.
And others might start saving, and not trying lottery items they don't really need conserve cash.
This new Mall system STINKS. I havent seen any good items in the mall other than the auction items which i will not bother paying 20 million+ for a good item..

Lottery items was never removed nor was their odd of appearing changed after the auction item was added. The first few days you will see high bids because many players have credits saved up. After a while the auction item bid price will become more reasonable.
The new auction system is lame, it makes players like me that can't get a lot of resources fall behind in a major way.

i figure that if a higher player pays insane amounts of credits for an item, that weakens him from buying cc's and other buildings.
