Black Market temporary weapon damage intentional?
So I wrote a support ticket asking what the deal was with a BM weapon that I won which was already fully damaged. The response was something along the lines of 'if you won that weapon and broke it before and then it expired and was won again, you have to use your own GP to repair it."
Does this not seem a little contradictory? Especially considering that there is a sticky in the tech support section saying this is an error.

I don't think they misunderstood:
"This means that if your weapons which you won from blackmarket have been equipped and played a period of time and broke, then they expired. After that, when you win them from some crates, they would keep broken, you have to repair them by yourself using GP."
That was their response... -
Oh right, I misunderstood.I don't think they misunderstood:
"This means that if your weapons which you won from blackmarket have been equipped and played a period of time and broke, then they expired. After that, when you win them from some crates, they would keep broken, you have to repair them by yourself using GP."

(well, didn't look at the part about expiring)
Send them another support ticket with a link to the thread. That might work? -
The sticky is old, this has been posted as an official announcement.
Damage needs to be repaired. New weapons that were previously fully damaged and expired will now also return fully damaged if you win the same weapon again.
This to prevent the former GP farming that this glitch allowed.

I'd personally beg to differ.That's absolutley ridiculous. There is no other way to make GP other than 5 GP at a time. Very productive I would say.
Active playing is still very much awarded through badges and missions.
Even at the lower badge levels, you get the GP worth of two broken BM guns for one badge.
This was a bug, and fixed as such.
You can still break the guns, just one of each kind. You can still earn pretty big amounts of GP through badges (and some through missions).
There are still events pretty much every week and three servers that give +5% GP.
There is also surveys which can be very awarding if you have the time, much like breaking guns is time consuming.
And lest we forget, ZP. -
Just do missions
Yeah thats about all I do anymore is do the mission if I like it. That will get 500 GP. Over time that adds up to buy more perms or repair the guns. If a crate gun is totally broke I think its 2500 to repair it. The last perm I had repaired was 5000. So to repair the temp for 2500 GP you have to complete the missions for 5 days to get the 2500 to get back where you were before the 5 days. It doesnt "seem" like you get much GP for the actual game (excluding the mission awards), so if you then repair the gun it doesnt "seem" like you made any progress toward expanding your arsenal, etc.
Just seems like a slow process and makes you wonder if your just wasting your time playing at all.
So a lot of times I just won't bother playing. Some games I like are not necessarily included in the daily missions of course, so I know if I go play what I like, I better just like it a lot, because in the end it "seems" like it will just cost me GP to have played.
Im not sure what the inspiration to earn EXP for higher rank is because after a certain level I dont think you get any (GP) rewards for achieving that rank. However when you go up in rank the daily missions become harder to complete (more wins or more kills etc) so the higher the rank the longer it takes to earn the daily GP award and the more your guns depreciate.
"Seems" like running around in a circle and getting no where. LOL.
I still get GP crates just because I have GP and you never know what you will get. Just gambling.
But as far as worrying about advancement? Nah. Better guns? Nah. Just a game - if I have time. -

The last 40-50 surveys I have done yielded absolutely zero results--with 100% accurate information so don't give me that.
The badge awards? Green muzzle flame 7 days? Yeah, that's worth a lot of GP.
Servers which give 5 percent more GP? Lets say you earned a base of 300 gp...that's only 15 more gp, most of which you have to spend repairing your weapons anyway. Do you believe the stuff you type or are you just required to type it? -
Oh, and lest we forget...the ZP which you have to pay for. That is the whole reason this 'bug' was fixed. How could a bug exist for the entirety of the crate system? It wasn't a bug, it was just recently deemed as such in order to force players to buy ZP if they want more than one weapon.

well i strongly suggest you take a good look at the badge system. like i said, easy 70k gp for first two badge levels... and more gp after that, though of course the badges become harder to earn -

Not all badge levels give GP, several of the higher levels have netted me 'green muzzle flame 7 days'
