Gun Purchasing - Rentals System
So through the number of patches and years and various items, there has been the option of renting guns either through gp or zp. For some, they prefer that, earning the currency required to use the weapon for a limited time instead of getting the permanent one, for whatever reason it is.
Things to note about the weapons bought with Rental.
-The weapons do not break. This will prevent it being abused for gp for breaking it and re-buying it. It would yield the same amount of gp as a Elimination weapon would. While also having similar effects to BM weapons of no accuracy loss.
-7, 30, 90 days Purchasing Options. This will be included with the 'Permanent' option that would be bought at regular price.
These are mainly to replace the crate weapons in the Black Market and also allow players the option to try guns without actually having to buy them, since Elimination doesn't have all the guns. Prices would obviously depend on the weapon and rank requirements would still be needed.
Perfect examples of weapons people would buy for GP rentals last year was the Christmas Glock and M4A1. Applying the same principal but with our normal weapons and perm options as well if available. Considering how many people actually did such, I think it would be quite useful. Especially for those wanting to do specific weapon montages or matches.

Naw, it would only affect the temporary non-zp/winnable guns. Like the M4 for 7 days. Not things like the Kriss V for rent and whatnot.CallMeSoul wrote: »Good solid idea i agree but what will replace crate temps?
With this idea, they can remove the temporary gp weapons that they've complained about and simply use this feature instead.i wanna know, what would be the price of a regular m4a1 for 7, 30, 90 days =]
Don't know the exact price, but the M4A1 X-mas was roughly 2000gp to rent for 7 days, chances are they might go off a similar system.having no BM and an option to buy the guns on them, or rent, would be awesome.
Its not to replace BM, only the gp weapons within that are temporary. People will still want to win rare and valuable weapons that give an edge. -

That actually might be a smart idea! ^..^ Though to some it'd be disappointing at least it allows some to have a chance of at least use it without having to steal it. Its either that or just increase Spray, Speedy or add other items in the place of the guns. -
Ever since CA and MAT I hate weapon rental system. It's not a bad idea, but I got personnal hate against it. +/- 0.
Heh, I agree, having ONLY the option of Rentals is extremely terrible in my opinion. But simply having it as a feature instead of a mandatory thing is what the focus s here. Just giving people that option, myself I probably wouldn't use it that much either save for certian cases.
Thanks for the input though. ^..^ -
Knowing Z8, they would be able to put it in a mandatory manner ... Or raise the price of permas up to skies ...Heh, I agree, having ONLY the option of Rentals is extremely terrible in my opinion.

Doubtful, its why so many people come to Cf, to actually own guns rather than see them disappear pointlessly. It would make purchasing redundant and Black Market pointless as well.
They don't need to jack up the prices of the weapons, they seem to just lower the starting gp for the newcomers to address that problem. But I doubt it would go any farther as they would need to change their entire system and... Deal with the many players who already own perm guns. -
They won't step back IMO. Z8, G4Box and SmileGay' greed and incompetence is capable of formidable ruining.Doubtful, its why so many people come to Cf, to actually own guns rather than see them disappear pointlessly. It would make purchasing redundant and Black Market pointless as well.

Well currently the greed/selflessness is a bit balanced these days. Its pretty hard to tell, which is good for a company. Sure they have done a number of bad things but also added a number of good beneficial things as well.
So only time will tell. If they are smart then they will keep both rather than replace. -
Nah i like it how it is lol,Like if you dont play every day and then you get on buy a wep and then dont log in again, it'll just be money wasted idk i think its a horrible idea lol.i like just having a weapon,that you can depend on because it's always there (although taking away the repair feature thats useless,would make everything alot easiar and you could gain gp through not repairing weapons to buy NEW weapons) but of course,they want you to spend ZP on GP.

Thats where the incentive of buying such a weapon permanently would come into play. The rental is mainly for those who want to try or prefer to save/keep their money for something else without being tied down. Usually good for those crate buyers who don't usually buy perm guns.
This system wouldn't replace the ability to buy guns permanently. So its really a case of, if you buy it for 30 days and you don't use it, thats not their fault as you could have had the option of getting it perm. -

Ok,so in order to buy weapons for 7,30,90 day(s) you would need more gp per round,making it easier to get Perm weapons?thus them losing money on people buying ZP to buy GP to buy perm weapons,because they now can easily get them.i highly doubt this will ever come through,because they love there money?but who doesnt.+ there's already zp/non perm weapons so. -

Let me clarify things a bit. Going into item shop, browsing the weapons and so on. Trying to figure out what you want. Buying rentals wouldn't yield any bonus gp like BM weapons used to. So, looking over the M4 you click buy. And shows:
[ ] 7 Day M4A1 = 2000gp
[ ] 30 Day M4A1 = 8000gp
[ ] 90 Day M4A1 = 13000gp
[ ] Permanent M4A1 = 430000gp
These prices are just approximate examples but thats basically what it would look like on the purchase menu, you just click the one you want and purchase. Nothing more to it. No additional strings attached. You either buy or try. -

Or how about there be an option to ''test'' a weapon,you press it and it brings you to a gun range or something,test it and the little test people actually have real damage amounts intill they die?saves you the trouble of wasting gp lol. -

Well, that would be much harder to implement overall. As that would require a new function entirely. This system at least already exists, and should be fairly easy to implement until/if they bring something like you said out. Otherwise, its using the gp for the tryouts or playing EM.
