I have spent my money cuz i thought it suppose to be rare weapon and then u giving it to everyone who get 100 kills in 12 days ? Uff...didnt think you can do such a bad thing,worse then putting blade in mp shop.
I wish you could change that event reward,i dont think war fan shouldnt be here in Na but at least not for free.

I agree, just 100 kills in S&D to get such a good melee is very easy. It should've been harder to obtain. I myself would've rather seen the War Fan as a EP crate or releasing the Blue Pottery version of it in the MP Mall.
However, we as EU players shouldn't complain. We were able to obtain the War Fan by spending just 20 euros on 30 crates with a insanely high win rate (I personally won 4 weapons out of those 30 crates). So in the end we had to pay a little price for the amount of items we obtained. -

Why u say its worst than dragon blade in mp shop? In eu u won war fan in 30 crates or less but here i preordered ak 12 vip with gg vip to get dragon blade even if i didnt need te ak12.
No you didn't win it from crates, you got it for free when purchasing these crates.MissA wrote:Suzy;n6896854]I quit BM for these reasons. I saw all my old crate guns i won in 2009/2010 become obsolete and for example spent like 600k on mg3 legendary only to see it being given away to everybody. Happy to say i have not bought crates in at least 5 years.
I myself am happy I made the choice of spending more on VVIP's and weapons that actually have improved stats over free weapons years ago, seeing how many weapons get re-released for free these days. -
In eu you used to be able to get one just by buying 30k to, I even got 2 somehow. Don't know what it was like in na, but since EU migrated it probably was a rather common item anyways.
Overall this whole trend of re releasing old rare weapons is really awful. They're biting the hands that feed them. I used to spend a lot of money on limited weapons cause they were supposed to be rare. Nowadays I couldn't really be bothered with any of the times offers. It's all a giant scam anyways. -

i should stop buying that much zp too but jeah - MTC.

VVIP preorder or not, they released a weapon that was only obtainable through events by spending money for free (and the requirements are very easy).
I will be disappointed if they do not rerelease the Dragon Blade in a similar fashion to this, although with a bit harder challenge to obtain it. -

yea you "thought" just because u think its rare doesnt mean it will be rare -
I'm curious on the EU event that rewarded the War Fan for just buying a handful of crates or whatever (that you guys had massive win rates on compared to here and also got a lot of stuff for GP that we had/have for ZP) did it say the war fan was EXCLUSIVE to that event? or anything? Not that it matters too much as they tend to release re-skins of exclusive event stuff and in one case re-released a bingo exclusive in spin the wheel with a high win rate and now many people have that from free spins too....but it'd be interesting to know if it was originally said to be exclusive or not.

This is what was mentioned in the patch notes of that patch:

This was the official picture of the event:
So no, the War Fan was never intended as a exclusive reward. -
Well, EU had their rare things such unfair things aswell..
You got a rare m4 gold in coupons on the EU version when that same m4 were only avaiable for player that have won tournments in 20010/11 time.. Also your accounts came with m4-silencer (black/default) , default tmp and 9a91 and other guns that we never had on this NA version .. so kinda fair to NA player a chance to have such guns like you guys have a chance to have some guns that never were in EU version . So don’t claim about a single knife that y’all got for only buy 30-50 crates of divine dragons ..
The same as a past event that would give y’all 50k EP by simply farm the event with bots TDM and y’all would be able to buy ak silver and m4 silver for a price of 25k EP each weapon, this is such unfair event for some NA players cuz you guys maybe got 1 of each silver, when I have 152 ak silver + 152 m4-silver when they were avaiable on the Item mall (new shop EP ) .. -
Can't upload a picture,
Saw that War fan was also for the 7th Anniversary (2018) on Cf Eu, a bonus for those who bought 30 or 50 Rp capsules (as I recal, it wasn't cheap on Eu, full prize)
So, ya, I take it as it was a exclusive item for 6th and 7th Anniversary.
I feel sorry for those who spent money on it to get it and now, only 1 year, 9 months later it's given out for free, on an Event. In my opinion they should had continue to have it in a bonus.

I said that it was a simple event reward, and thus many players had it anyways. I wasn't crying about anything at all with the war fan, I was referring to the overall trend of de-valueing weapons that once were rare.
Also you seem to forget that not only we got weapons easily that were rare in NA, it's the exact same way for us also. The M4 spring was only released once, in 2012 or 2013, same for the M4/kukri royal dragon (with the exceptions of 10 caps for a vvip preorder) and many other weapons that were never re-released in EU while they were available ver often, or permanently for MP/ZP here in NA.
My Xm8 Jasmine even lost the 100% wallbang with the transfer, argubly the M4 Spring had no wallbang in EU, so I'm more than cool with the tradeoff lol.
And as a former CFEU player, not even I got the "new new account weapons" like the M4-S, TMP or 9a91, those weapons were introduced in 2018 or maybe late 2017, and were only made available to the rest if they participated in certain events which many people couldn't do as it was timely limited.
It's always so easy to only look at your side of things, right? -

Yes, and it's magnificent..
Let's stick to the topic at hand though, the OP was mostly talking about the WAY the War Fan was released. Not that it was released to begin with. -

It's not giving out free, it requires work and if you have it already then you should choose another reward. I don't even have the war fan but I still don't choose it, it sucks. I chose 20 free tickets instead, these 20 free crate tickets maybe even give me an Ice-Blade. My friend doesn't have the war fan also, but he chose 50,000 EP instead because he says 50,000 EP equals to 60 weekend crates and those 60 crates may give him even better item than the war fan. -

That's right, at the end is our choice (event if you want to gamble on Crates). I rather prefer War Fan since its perm for sure even if its not that good in stats (or even if I have plenty melees).
I believe EU players will have the chance to get weapons/ribbons (never released/available in EU) soon in similar events so we just have to be patient. -

Since when did anyone got mg3 legendary dragon? I rarely see anyone with that gun.
OT:
EU got things which we never got so it's only fair for us to get our hands on it. -
Oh come on, 100 kills is done in a jiff..
This is so weird, how is one "resolution" 10h in SND, which takes 10 hours (yes, really, I did the math) while another one is getting 100 kills in SND, which can take as little as half an hour for a good player in 2-3 rooms filled with rather bad players, which is a very common occurance considering the vast majority of players is playing on toasters with pings of 100ms+ -

Making it a little harder to obtain wouldn't make it such a hard slap in the face. I'd highly advice the GM's to make a better comparison in the way content was released in EU to how it should be released in West. -
hey OP, you gotta be kidding yourself here.
getting this war fan on top of the hyper divine dragon crate is unfair for us NA players. open youtube and search about those hyper crates .... I have seen people winning the 4 weapons and the barrete 2X (5weapons) in just the last 20 crates of the 100 this winning rate is unreachable here in NA.
so please talk more about unfair!! -

Yeah LOL. They received alot of positive stuff from EU server prior to coming here and now they complain when we get just one thing positive. Look at how many ZP crates people from NA server have to spin to get one weapon, whiles you got them easily from EU server and got a chance to transfer all of those weapons here; does that mean NA spenders should get angry too? -
I am thrilled to get a chance to obtain the Warfan, as i didn't get it in EU. The thing with weapon rarity in online games, that people don't seem to understand is that it's mostly only rare for awile. As gameworlds are fluid, you can't expect to be the only owner of an item forever. Sure for awile, even for years you can have bragging rights for owning it. But as new items are released, the owners of the game, wan't you to buy/win those items and they become the new rare things to bragg about. Then the old rare items can get a more public release and players that wanted to have them for a long time becomes happy and it may keep them from leaving a game, because they think they get nothing they want. If they didn't do it like that, they would lose money in the end. It's natural in many games, though more so in MMO-RPG's.
It's the same way in the realworld, outside the game, if you think about it.
A company release a new cool watch, but only 101 watches. People buy them for 1000$ and can bragg about having the new exclusive super-watch before anyone else, for some months. The hype get's up and more people want the watches. They release them to the public for 900$, just a little cheaper and an army of people buy the now reduced priced watches. In the same moment, the company announces The Super-Watch Mark II, that they are only going pre sell to 101 people, a year before it gets released to the public. Wait some years and the first super watch get's given away for free with purchases of t-shirts with the company logo. Then there are also the Super-Watch Mark II S, that only were made in 10 copies and given away to the winners of a competition, never to be released to the public.
It really is no reason to complain or feel robbed. It is the way of the world/system these days and it's been so a long time, probably will be so for along time still.JackPain (Sweden) -

You...You sir know a lot about how organisations work. I liked your analysis. If I were HR manager of Google, I'd have hired you right away as a research and development head.
