As much as I love MS, it was mainly their fault as far as I am aware. Hopefully when Defiance hits next gen consoles we will all be able to play together.

An Auction House would be of very little use to me with the current EGO system, because only a handful of players on my server could possibly use the guns I would sell. And in most cases, they've played enough to have guns that are just as good or better themselves.
So yes, I'd like to see an Auction House one day, but I'd also like the whole EGO restriction system to be rethought. Given that there's no difference between an EGO 2000 and an EGO 5000 weapon, it makes little sense that an EGO 2000 character can use one and not the other.

I'm fine with the current system. It's one of the last remaining gates in the game, if they remove that and then this game has officially become casual. However, they need to make it so lower ego items can drop for higher level players. Given that you can still get sub 5k ego weapons at 5k ego, it's clearly possible with the game mechanics.
They said they plan on introducing ego progression for the weapons (hopefully while balancing the open world properly)
So it would make sense to keep it the way it is. I would only accept lower level egos being able to use higher ego weapons if the stats were weaker for the lower ego level player. IE, lower accuracy or recoil because it requires higher skill (ego level) to use them. Some sort of restriction would be required.
