So, how do we use the new Mercenary Marketplace?

It's a new "feature" of Inferno, but I can't find a window for it anywhere. How is this new feature used?

This is not the signature you're looking for.

I 'believe' it is for Corps/alliances to offer their services for other Corps/alliances in wars

I.e. you wont find it in your NPC corp P

Under "All Wars" you can check "Assitance requests only" - which gives you people you can mail who are looking for merc help. Beyond that, I don't think there is anything.

As far as I can tell, there isn't actually a "mercenary marketplace".

Seriously, there's a bunch of war related tabs, but there's no actual mercenary marketplace thing.

oh come on he doesn't even know the basics yet. It's good place to go when you want to learn the game.

Heh, just because I didn't know where to find mercs within half a day of the feature being released doesn't mean I don't know the basics of PvP. I've had combat toons for several years now.

It's unfortunate that this is what they call the "marketplace". I was hoping for something much more market-like, where we could see stats of merc corps, their kills/losses in other wars they've allied with, their weekly prices, etc.

I agree, it would be nice to place our names out so people can come to us for the help and be able to see all our details on an actual window, with this new setup yes we can offer our aid but that gives them no details on us, it's almost like it was before where corp/alliances would have to talk with the mercs to get prices and stats through emails or private chats, CCP could have done much better with this feature imo.

Others enjoy real PVP

"We will create the introduction thread if that is requested by the community. Also, we will have an ISD Seminar about the CCL team in the coming weeks in which you can ask your questions about the CCL team and provide some constructive feedback to us." - Countless pages of locked threads and numerous permabanned accounts later, change is coming.

I expected it to more than a single button myself, congrats Dev's on making a button sound awesome!

I recall one night in a nightclub called the matrix, there I was... Mother of god there I am! Holy f**k.

Another over-hyped bunch of bulls@$t from your hard working, creative, and innovative friends, CCP.

Apparently, you are not one of them.
