GP gain is too slow.
Average gain per game: 120 gp.
Average repair cost per game: 100 gp.
Before you say "get more kills, lol", lemme say that I realize I'm not the best player. I play at most 3 times a week, about 12 matches at a time. I'm casual. But that doesn't mean I don't want better equipment, and it seems to me that the game is rigged so that "premium" players (ones that buy ZP) get the best equipment while casual players like me are left in the dust.
At 20 GP (gain minus repairs) a match, it will take me over 2,000 matches to get the gun I want. This will take 285 weeks at my current pace. Do you see my point?
My current gun is a P90, which is fine, but I would have to spend a good portion of my life grinding to get the gun I want, and this is simply something I cannot do. So am I stuck with this gun for eternity?

There's the 500 GP per daily mission completed...
You can still catch the last few days of MMO Voting to get codes for 750 GP each...
I'm still thinking of other ideas...
500GP for daily missions? That's horrible. I think they should up the prices. Guns are 30k+
(500GP a day to get 32k?) -Sob*Sob- -
If you haven't taken advantage of the voting event for CF, I suggest you do so by clicking here. Every vote will get you 750 GP.
You can also do the daily mission whenever you log on.
Unfortunately, [MOD]9 already pointed those two out as I was typing this...
You could do the Netflix offer which will get you a 1 month free trial for Netflix as well as 20,000+ ZP. -

If the GP gain was any faster, it would all be too easy. Play some Hero Mode if you;re so desperate for it. Other ways to earn it is to break guns. Hate that M16/M700? Don't repair them. BAM! You just got 120 GP instead of only 20.

First off even tho the rate is a bit low their is lots of other ways to get GP.
Daily missions give 500 GP a day plus what ever GP you get from the dogtag crates when you get them.
Badges give 2,000 GP for C1, 5,000 for C2, and Elite gives 30,000 for C3 and 50,000 for B3.
An easy 35,000 GP just for getting all badges to C2 and a extra 30,000 for all at C3.
Hero mode is a game mode that doesn't come with repairs but gives the normal GP rate, this means one can get 200-400 GP per game of a fast 9 round game. GP rate is based on activity time with a weapon bag, the longer you live each round the more GP you get.
The MMO vote event gives 750 GP per vote, you van vote 3 times a day on the same account if you know how to change your IP.
At least 1250 GP a day from mission and 1 vote a day and easily 1,000-2,000 more for HM if you play it a bit. -

Taken from Luck's FreePlayers' guide:
From this point onward your only source of income will come from missions, dog tag rewards and grinding.
Flashbang's and smoke's cost 2,000gp each, so if you want them for both bags, that will be 8,000gp ( about 15 days of missions).
Now, we get into the maintenance scheme.
For 30 days of fast defuse it is: 5,900gp
For 30 days of expanded grenade slot it is 5,900gp
For the 30 day period this is 11,800gp. Assuming you complete your mission every day, you should earn at the minimum 15,000gp.
This will leave you earning 3,000gp a month, which gives room for days you miss the missions.
TIPS:
+ Ranking up faster will help you get both rank and friend invite bonus's quicker. Here are some ways to do it:
MVP - 100xp per game (this is huge, and will drastically reduce how many games / how long you spend ranking up).
Last Kill - 20 xp doesn't seem like much but the average 8-10 minute tdm game gives you 80-120 xp, the last kill is definitely worth 2 minutes of in-game time.
Farming - Many people frown on the concept of farming but since the friend invite bonus's only last for 30 days it is definitely a viable option in this case. Works well to get your clan / friends involved and have them let you farm for a few hours. Several games of 800ish (estimate) experience will go a long way in helping you rank faster.
+ Don't ever sell your weapons, nades, etc. The rate of return is too low to even consider it and you should not have bought the weapon in the first place if you did not intend to keep it.
+Don't buy more than 1 character skin... it's a waste of money, make sure you pick one you like when you fist create your account.
+Make sure to break any/all temporary guns you may recieve from friend invite bonus / missions. -

You can get 4500 gp/day from MMO....just saying -
Let's say:
- One month of playing 1 game a day
- One month of missions
- One month of voting every day [won't work anymore
500GP / day x 30 = 15000 GP
750 GP / day x 30 = 22500 GP
Add that all up, and you have over 40K GP, which you can purchase most guns that you'll want. You can't put in zero effort and expect to get a ton out of it. If you can't play a lot, that's your personal choice. You won't get 50k GP for playing a few games a week. It's just too stacked. Everyone would have every gun.
Now, if you vote multiple times, that opens up another door. You can redeem 6 times a day, therefore:
(750 x 6) / day x 30 = 135000 GP
That by itself could have been amazing incentive for you. -
120 GP per match?That isn't much,is it?I usually get 300-500.So 20 matches everyday is already 6-10k Gp+750 GP from that voting thing+500 GP from daily.So u could get 7-8k everyday easily.Also dog tag gives u 5 crates,that's at least 15k GP.
EDIT:I don't play that much,so I get around 4-5k only. -
-
Voting closes on the 15th, and did you deduct repair cost? and factor in that it might not always be 1 game needed sometimes 3-4 for that 120gp?
With the numbers OP gave, 120 GP would be 6 matches each day.
But, he also said 3 times a week and an around 12 matches each time...
So...
240 GP/day x3 = 720 GP
500 GP/day x3 = 1500 GP
750 GP/day x7 = 5250 GP
So he would get 7470 GP/week (33720 GP if he redeemed 6 codes each day). Then add the GP from ranking up and badges, maybe even the DE-S crates.... -

If GP rate was too high or whatever, ZP sales would go down, why? Because those people who just buy 14k or 15k ZP to get the 120k GP bundle would go way way down, because they could just farm gold in-game and not worry about it, couple this with peoples ranting about repair costs needing to go down or not exist, it would make it way to easy to buy several guns if not more a week for those who no-life this game everyday... If and I say IF they ever increased GP / decreased repair, they would need to buff the ZP weapons/crates to keep the revenue from crashing through the floor. GP gain is just fine as it is, like a lot of people have pointed out, theres missions/badges/voting/no repair cost modes/rank up rewards ect. to gain GP. Not to mention if your like me and survive most rounds, and not spray like nutz, you should be fine. Ohh and break your M16/M700 to get several thousand gp per gun.
