Black Market FQA And Guide

FAQ Dec 2012 Update

Q: What is the Black Market?

A: The Black Market is a 'shop' in Cross Fire where you can win special guns through crates. You spin a crate, and there will be different items, including the special gun that is included in each crate. No way to win except try spin --"NO BUGS"--.


Q: What kinds of crates are there?

A: There are two kinds of crates; GP and ZP. GP Crates are crates that require GP, and ZP crates are crates that require ZP. You can't buy GP Crates with ZP, and you can't buy ZP crates with GP. They're both separate currencies, But you can Transfer ZP to GP from Mall.


Q: What is the difference between GP and ZP crates?

A: GP and ZP crates require different currencies for purchase. ZP crates tend to have better items than GP Crates.


Q: What is the cost of each crate?

A: it is 2,000 GP for a GP Crate, and 1,000 ZP for a ZP crate. Sometime ZP crate price up on event like Halloween and Xmas and some good crate like AWM LM...etc.


Q: What other kinds of items could you win in crates?

A: You can get sprays, melee weapons, name tags, coupons, and other guns. Each crate shows which items you can win on the front page of the Black Market weapon.


Q: What's the probability of winning the main crate gun?

A: Exact probability is unknown, Its built on luck not on trick.


Q: Is there any 'trick' or 'exploit' into winning a GP/ZP gun?

A: No, there is no trick for winning a gun. It's like a lottery; it's strictly luck based. There's no special place on the wheel where you can win certain items. It's all based on luck. Don't believe in any tricks your friends tell you, because it's all false.

Q: I just bought 100 crates and I still didn't win anything. Will buying more crates increase my chances of winning a weapon?

A: No. The probability of each crate is the same. So you won't be getting any increased chance of winning. Maybe you get 200 crate and don't get gun and your friend buy 1 crate and win, Again its based on luck.


Q: Is it true that ZP crates have a better chance at winning the main crate gun over GP crates?

A: I don't think so, Maybe ZP crates have good items than GP and some time less items so its maybe little easy to win than GP crate but again i said its based on luck.


Q: Event Crates! What are those?

A: Whenever there is a patch or a big event, these 'event' crates usually come out. They're special for limited time only crates. Get them while you can!


Q: Holiday Crates! What are those?

A: Its crates appear only in events like Halloween and Xmas..etc, but its remove after event over like Octane crate and Halloween crate...etc. some time there is GP crate but most of them form ZP crate


Q: What are coupons?

A: Coupons is an item you can get from crates. You collect it then exchange it by gun or other things as in Z8 items, You can start exchange from 10 Coupons Max 100 Coupons. If you reach 100 Coupon any new coupon you will win it will be useless then you have to exchange to leave space for new coupons.
