seller's market

dieAsoul

Soooooo, as competitive as the gaming industry is, I am sure Z8 is noticing a decline in monetary numbers compared to 5 years ago even. This is due to competing and better leading game franchises taking the lead. They did this by having a end user market. That is to say, a market/auction by the user on their stuff. I think Z8 will profit and compete and even bring up their numbers by large by having a seller's market. Where one such as I will go and piece off the inventory at a price and Z8 will get a cut from each sale. I got tons of stuff and a lot are valuable and some even rare. thoughts???

Are you trying to turn CrossFire into CSGO? That is all I am getting at by your post.

dieAsoul

you do know that suba games knocked off Counter Strike with Crossfire right? I mean, it is only fitting if crossfire now follows suit with Counter strike still... The people have spoken and crossfire;s numbers are only hanging because of loyals like me that have been with them die hardedly since it was beta in 2008. Back then it was not ZP but SP. I remember. Z8 needs a seller market in order to compete.

I'm pretty sure I've that kind of suggestion before and the GM that responded,probably Canadian, said that this won't happen in CrossFire.

Well if they want to get rid of the stereotype that Canadians are business stupid then they will. Just saying...

Except that Kanadians don't run this joint, Koreans do.

God, that's even worse.

While it's certainly not the only or even the main reason CF is falling behind other (newer) games/series from other Companies, I do believe a large portion of the players would like SOME kind of Trading Market. But it'd of course have to be balanced.

I would honestly like this, but from a business perspective, it's a bad idea (In this particular scenario).

Someone wants M4 Patriot? They can buy it for $30! Great, right? The player is happy, the seller gets a little ZP/Cash, Z8 gets a cut, everybody wins!
Except if there was no market, they could potentially spend $200 trying to win it, and the company would make lots more money.

This is why, while a good idea, I doubt it will happen.

i believe the solution for that would be to make only certain guns available. like old guns and duplicates, but not the new ones

I think a good idea would be any old gun that is not in the black market you can trade and they can take a fee from that.
