Screenshot aside, I do like how it turned out.
For some reason it’s loading slower than the old one, though.

Did they deliberately make it so you cannot autosell anymore and it only allows you to auto-list with the lowest seller? I imagine it’d be to protect new players from getting ripped off by people who play the market, but it was kind of easier to see when you were getting ripped off with the older system since you’d have the highest buyer above the lowest seller.
Wouldn’t it be nicer if there was an option that you can set it to automatically select the max amount like it used to, though? It is rather tedious when you have an inventory full of goodies and both harvested and salvaged items, but you have to click the buyer, then click and drag to max amount (provided the higher buyer is buying more than you have) and then repeat the process for every single item and buyer.

This kind of doubled the amount of clicks required to sell something, so it’s hardly an improvement, no? Combine it with TP loading times and cleaning your inventory just got more annoying.

This is a T-rated MMO, not a point-and-click adventure for 5-year-olds.
That’s how GW2 ends; not with a bang, but a whimper.

The slower loading might just be with the amount of people on at the time. (They had so much people on that mini’s wouldn’t show due to the massive lag they would cause)

Not sure why it’s set to the lowest seller automatically among other stuff, but I wouldn’t consider that a game-breaking issue. Haven’t tried to mass sell stuff just yet, so I won’t comment on the other things.

Sure, it LOOKS good but that’s about it. I spend a lot of my time simply running around the map seeking out ore, wood, plants and taking down pretty much anything that happens to stray into my path, or which seems worth fighting. Sadly, the new interface is poorly executed. With the old one, I knew with absolute conviction that crafting materials and salvage could be sold ‘lowest’ to make the best profits and that weapons and armor had to be sold ‘highest’ to guarantee a quick sale, although not always the most profitable … and now all of that is gone and the new system is both confusing and repetitive to an insane degree.

Say for example that I have 200 slots to sell from, I now have to click and execute a sales process on each and every one … one at a time … over and over and over again and that is simply unacceptable. I’ve explained elsewhere (if the moderators want to find it) how best to streamline the process to take all of that out of it but that is my main complaint about the new system. It looks good … and that’s about all that I can say about it as everything else is just a big box full of kittens.

I did something today that I’ve never done before just out of sheer frustration. I sold 200 slots worth of loot straight to a NPC VENDOR rather than use the stupid overly complicated and confusing trading post. This has RUINED a major part of my gaming experience and I’m not alone in this opinion from the chat that has been going around.
