I'm just curious of the communities thoughts on the idea of having a whole wipe (~6 months) of no flea market. I think it would be a shame if before releasing a final version, they didn't have a wipe with no flea. I know that at one point the flea didn't exist, but the game and player base has changed extensively since then. Maybe it doesn't even last the full wipe. Maybe its something where they slowly allow more things on the flea market over the course of the wipe. The recent events where the flea was gone, took the late wipe slog and made it much more interesting. Suddenly I'm going into raids looking for ammo and attachments. It was great! I just think the game would be better with a very limited or non-existent flea market. I mainly just want to see the "survival game" aspect brought a little more to the forefront. Instead of having an in-game Amazon that has everything I could ever want.
