InGame Currency?
Is there plans to add an ingame currency for trading?

Doubt it. The only currency is basically fame and trading it would be hard. Though if they add ways to spend fame you could buy things to trade.

Ammo / food.. great currency. Today i traded food for .22 cal ammo. No one died :D Dont really se a need to trade anything else.

A black market trader would be cool, maybe u have to go there to pay ur base off every 2 weeks if u build a base. And If people forget about there base it despawns

Well cigs / small knick knacks are traded in prison....but the real money gets transferred to a Commissary account that real prsioners cant access but use to shop at the Commisary Store....so maybe a Commissary Fund / Interest gained system based on level of fame + the SCUM show sponsors obtained. Sustained fame = higher interest gained.

Drugs, cigs. Maybe drugs will be more valuable but prison guards will be more on to you? :D
I want my white nazi tatoos to be able to fully roleplay the worst and meanest prisoners.

You callin' me out?

I don't think you can emulate a barter system by naming an item to be the currency (cigs). I mean, I don't give two runny ships about cigs irl or in this game. If you have a vendor that accepts cigs as currency, then...I'll quit. lol.

I can't believe there will be a safe zone or trading. Seems like ammunition would be the go-to currency if there must be one, unless you start making things like hygiene an actual thing (read: another bar to manage "the scums 4 now with pets and night life"), and then it would be toilet paper.

They should put vendors in the game, safe zone ai, you can buy and sell to and from. As well as player trading. Special items in vendors. Needed to craft higher level stuff maybe. That would give me some purpose for Role Playing. Right now bare bones, this game gets dull. Especially since I have to walk 12km to explore. Hey, if I had a jeep, I would be camping in the mountains with my boys.

Exept in prisons its valuable contaband while in open world survival i dont think cigaretees would be that important , propobly close to worthless

If anything i could think off it would be propobly like metro , that ammo would be currency or food

If everything fails could be gold(jewelery)

Only reason cigarettes are currency is prison is becouse shelter , food and other nessesities are provided.

Money would be alternative too.

Black market vendors are awesome, we had them in Arma 3 Exile and i loved it. Made looting up even more fun, gaining loot selling it to the black markets and volla stock pile all the good stuff and go to pvp war. We still have loads of fun with that game.
