Is it possible to trade Animals with Steam Friends?

[Senyuki]

Simple Question. Is it now possible to trade Animals with Steam Friends? I dont like this usury trading in the official market... (stopped playing as they introduced the inbreeding)

[jcp011c2]

No, but it would be awesome if they had it happen at some point.

Not directly

Okay, then I'll dont play again i think. Doesnt like this shopsystem with all that horrible prices. Doesnt make sense to have friends at all cause you cant change animals. Thanks for your answers.

I made a similar suggestion near the beginning on the official forums that being able to trade directly with franchises belonging to friends or have the ability to trade with a specific franchise of your choice as a kinda of trading partner.

[Senyuki]

Yeah, this would be nice and it would make sense... Changing Animals for Breeding, selling to friends directly... fair Prices... i don't like it in the way it is now. And friends make totally no sense in the moment cause you cant do a thing with them... they walk around... yayyy....
Nah... i dont like sandbox or something like that. I like the franchise, but not with this trading system it has... inbreeding makes it even worse cause you have to change your males all the time... maybe they change something... i hope for it...

I didn't see the point of the Franchise market when they first announced it and I don't see the point now that I'm playing the game. Its as intuitive and fun as the sandbox market run by AI. It adds nothing.

For me, the franchise market is only a place for usury prices... One male Elefant for 10.000 and so on.... (it was like that when i played the last time after the inbreeding) ... i mean... really???
Nah... thanks.... not with me :)

You can trade with steam friends, but it takes some precision. You must communicate your price, breed, name of the animal (name it something other than default to spot it easier in the list), etc. Have the friend set up parameters to quickly find your animal and then give them a heads up when you will list. The friend should be able to refresh page and quickly find your animal and buy it before anyone else. It's not the best way, but this is what's worked for me and kept me playing franchise. Hope this helps. :)

That doesnt work really good, we tried something like that a few times...
but if you have a small price, others buy it quick and your friend has no chance most time.
So no, thats no option for us. (and the shop was laggy as hell very often...)
i hope they include a system for selling with friends directly...
