El Intercambio es un sistema del juego, implementado en la Actualización Mann-Conomy que permite cambiar armas, sombreros, misceláneos y herramientas, con otras personas.

Mecánicas

La mecanica del intercambio consiste en que en el menu de los personajes hay una opcion para intercambiar, de este se pueden elegir tres opciones: Intercambiar con un amigo en linea, intercambiar con alguien en el mismo servidor o intercambiar con un desconocido pero que tambien esta en linea (se debe obtener la id de Steam community del usuario). Una vez elegido una opcion, al jugador escogido se le envia una alerta con la forma de una pequeña ventana con el texto "(Nombre de jugador) quiere intercambiar contigo", se puede aceptar o rechazar la invitacion o deshabilitar esta opcion en las preferencias del jugador. El jugador que recibio el mensaje tiene treinta segundos para responder, en caso contrario el intercambio no se realiza si el jugador no responde dicho mensaje. Cuando el intercambio es aceptado la pantalla del jugador se cambia a la pantalla del intercambio en donde hay una secion de chat privado con el jugador, una zona en donde puedes poner los items que seran intercambiados y una zona en donde puedes ver que ofrece el jugador, los items que el jugador intercambia y los items del otro jugador seran mostrados en vivo para ambos jugadores. Se deslizan los items a intercambiar y cuando ambos presionan la casilla de verificacion se habilita un boton que permite el intercambio. Luego de eso se muestran los items adquiridos luego del intercambio junto con un sonido caracteristico

En caso alternativo de que el intercambio sea cancelado se producira un sonido diferente

Trading Tips

Keep the following tips in mind for an enjoyable trading experience.

  • Pay attention to the background color of the items being traded, signifying Rarity.
  • Always re-check items being traded after seeing the "Offer is changing... Please wait" message.
  • Take your time when conducting a trade. Don't give into the other player's pressure if they're pushing you into a trade you're not happy with.

Scams

Due to the wide range given to trading, players may be subject to scam attempts and/or offer disagreements. It is advised to avoid the following practices.

  • Multiple trade transactions: Trading more than 8 items over two separate trade transactions is a risky and best avoided practice. There is no guarantee the other trader will not simply disappear after the first trade.
  • External trades: Trading in-game items for money and/or Steam games is extremely risky and not supported by Steam's Terms of Service.
  • Crate opening services: Some users may offer to open your crates in exchange for an item or a promise on return of the contents. Be aware that since you agree to the trade, they are not obliged to return any items found in the crates given.
  • Raffle contests: These usually consist of the players giving a low value item, such as scrap metal, to enter a raffle for a chance to win a high value item, such as a hat. There is no way to guarantee the contest is carried out fairly; in all likelihood the "random winner" is in on the scam. An alternative outcome to this scam is that the host of the raffle, i.e. the person receiving all the entry items, may simply leave the server with the low level items they have collected.
  • Gift Wrapped items: Be aware that it is impossible to know the contents of a Carefully Wrapped Gift without opening it.

Community trading glossary

With the implementation of the trading system the community has started and since then continuously used specific terms describing items' specific attributes concerning their usability in trading and crafting as well as their trading value.

"Clean" items 
Refers to hats, weapons and Miscellaneous items that have not been gifted to obtain the "Gifted from" text. They can be directly used in the trading process (without requiring the use of a gift wrap). They are also generally craftable (with few exceptions).
"Dirty" items 
As opposed to the "clean" ones, these are not directly tradable (Mann Co. Cap e.g.) and eventually not usable in crafting. Items that have been gifted or bought from the Mann Co. Store are neither tradable, nor craftable.
"Crate hats" 
These are hats that are obtainable by unlocking a Mann Co. Supply Crate with a Mann Co. Supply Crate Key (Note: Unusual hats are not considered to fall under this category, despite originating from crates). Whether the hat was crafted or found via the Item drop system, it is still considered a "crate hat" since it is one that could be obtained from a crate.
"Sweeteners" 
Sweeteners are additional non-specific items usually added into a trade negotiation where the value on one side of the trade is perceived to be notably different in comparison to the other. The goal of adding sweeteners is often to provide additional incentive to trade, despite the perceived difference in value of the original item(s).
"Upgrading/Downgrading" 
A term used to describe trading a vintage item for a corresponding non-vintage item plus extra material, or vice versa. In some cases, may also be used to describe trading for the same, but different level item to attain a specific level item.

Untradable items

Due to the possibility of selling items outside of the Mann Co. Store for real money, some items are not tradable.

Previous changes

October 6, 2010 Patch

  • The Trading dialog now starts with the chat window having focus.

October 20, 2010 Patch

  • Added some anti-scam advice to the chat window.
  • Increased trading slots to 8 slots per person.
  • Added item rarity colors.
  • Added the item’s original name to the item description.
  • Made most tools tradable.

Notes

  • If you have been scammed, you can file a Steam support ticket and explain the situation. It helps to provide evidence of the scam, such as conversation logs of negotiations or screen shots/videos of the scammed transaction. Valve has clearly stated, however, that they will not do anything to recover your items if you are a victim of a phishing scam.
