Miss the old coupon guns
I think im not the only one who miss the old cuppon guns, now most of them are 30 or 90 day guns, this really sucks, and the new guns are not cool, like ruger bisley, or remmington. Im not rich so i cant get all the coupons i want, i was almost reaching 50 coupons, very happy because I would switch them for permanent axe, and then, they change it for remmington and rx4 storm ¬¬
( I will not even talk about the increase of 20 coupons for m4 custom)

I miss the 90 day axe @ the 15 coupon slot
And I never got a chance to get the AK-Knife :mad:
Remember the Permanent shovel before they replaced it to another Permanent Axe in the AK-Camo area? I wish I got one but it was already too late.

did you make a typo, or did u actually mean z8 offered a perm shovel? i knowvthey had the 90 day shovel for 15 -
The only thing i miss is the kriss
best looking kriss variant in the game imo
Think when the kriss was a coupon gun is when it was overpowered... people say it got nerfed.
once upon a time a spop with a kriss was the coolest thing to have in the game. -
We all do, and as Saidin stated, coupons are a bonus, so you should thank god

In the real world you get what you pay for...who the hell wants to pay $200+ dollars, lose in EVERY SINGLE CRATE (luck my ASS), and then get the option for a junky 30day weapon...it took you AGES to work for that money, an now it's gone in 30 days.
In my store we sell extended warranty plans for items...they typically only have 1 year of some crappy limited warranty that says that if it breaks because of [X] then they can't get it fixed or what not...what our company does is say "screw all that, if it breaks after their crappy warranty expires we'll refund you the entire amount on a giftcard so you can buy a new (and usually updated) one".
Z8's version of what my store does is like saying "we'll give you a bottle of milk that's amount to expire in 30 seconds...drink it while you can. Oh, and you'll have to spend another $9000 to get another one. Have a nice ****** day..."
Totally fair...*eyeroll*.
What they (Smilegate) could have done was increase the max. amount of coupons need to redeem an item to up to 500 (yes...FIVE HUNDRED)....and then put something something perm in THAT. They'd make their money, and the user would get something functional (AND unique...) out of the whole process... -

Not to mention one of the first things people got kicked for... -
Wouldnt it be convenient 4 z8 if everybody forgot the fact that there used to be better permanent weapons inBM coupons. Well guess what, we wont firget. And ppl wont stop making threads to let yall know thatthey didnt forget about perm axe, awm camo, or even the fact that m4custom used to cost 20 fewer coupons.

I dissagree, I think they just need to make more money. if they need space they would take out permanent weapons when they are ready to put in new permanent ones -

Deal with it. It's been discussed many times. Learn to accept it.
As for the temporary coupon guns... you stating that they are not cool is just your opinion.
My opinion, au contraire, states that the weapons are cool, with a highlight to the RX4 Storm, M16A4, MP7A1, as well as my fav the Remington 870.
No I have not used any of the temporary coupon guns. But I DO plan to accumulate enough coupons in the near future.
As for the QQ on the Permanent Axe taken out... as well as to explain YET AGAIN one reasoning of these changes:
Combat Axe and Coupon Exchange changes.
You can even go do a search for yourself to find a whole lot more posts from [GM]Saidin giving further explanation. -
I'm guessing there's a lot of skeptical people here, but when Thompson / Winchester crate was released, as well as the release of GM (I think), there was a permanent shovel next to 2 permanent axes.Wut? There was a perm shovel?
That permanent shovel was replaced to an AK-Camo. If you don't trust me, then don't. It's probably better that way, so then there wouldn't be any rage threads about it.
Oh and extra note : That patch was nearly 3 years ago.

WAIT! WHAT! They removed the Kriss Super V from the coupon mall?!?! when did this happen? :rolleyes:
Yup. It's true.Wut? There was a perm shovel?
^I vouch for this statement. There WAS a perm shovel in coupons.

I'm sorry, sir, but it seems that you have been preempted:Wouldnt it be convenient 4 z8 if everybody forgot the fact that there used to be better permanent weapons inBM coupons.

You're comparing perishable food items to video games. The comparison fails at this point because the economic model of a grocery store is not anything like the economic model of a video game.
Heck, even a freemium (industry buzz word everyone!) game like Cross Fire has a different economic model than say. Call of Duty.
Now that I've added this disclaimer lets see if I can relate a made-up model for a corner store into what it's like for CF.Your store, which sells milk sells a magical bottle of milk that never runs out.I really think this ridiculous point has been made. We have permanent weapons in the coupon exchange. The price of these things doesn't matter if the philosophy (and data) shows that once a person has a permanent weapon of a certain type they are less likely to get another permanent weapon.
You go to the store and buy this magical bottle of milk. The price really doesn't matter.
You now never have to go to the store again to buy milk.
The store does amazing business in the first month because everyone wants magical bottles of milk. But once the population of the city all has bottles of milk the store now can only serve brand new customers. The returning population already has milk and doesn't need it.
In fact this returning population who has unlimited milk loves unlimited milk so much that they don't really need magical orange juice.
A few customers love the fact that this store sells magical apple juice, and they may want to get that as well. But pretty soon their fridge is full and again they really don't need to go to the store.
To solve this two things can be attempted, and I use that word because of the fluid nature of the new system and of our constant update process. One is to introduce temporary weapons, this gives users options at all times to try new things. The other is to actually put new weapons in there from time to time. New content gives people different choices, and temporary content allows those people to try more choices more often.
Considering this is all bonus items for purchasing crates, and by purchasing crates you're already exposing yourself to a ton of variety of weapons; this system is moving the game in a more positive direction over a longer period of time.
The TL : DR version of this all is that more variety is better whether it is temporary or permanent. We still have some top level permanent weapons that are not changing, but some of the lower tiers now give more variety options to more players to try new things.
