I actually randomly thought of this event, pls no flamers. Kindly leave ur comments below.


Introduction/Rationale of this event:
Since thr's always PERM AP stuff when u buy AP, why not u spend GOLD, and get GOLD guns for perm?


How it works: Spend the stated amount of GOLD, and get the tiered prizes. As u go along, the last tier will reward u with a perm GOLD weapon.


Tier 1 : 10k Gold
3days

Tier 2: 50k Gold
5days

Tier 3: 100k Gold
14days

Tier 4: 300k Gold
30days

Tier 5: 750k Gold
180days

Tier 6: 1.2million Gold
PERM GOLD gun (with 1 perm upgrade chosen by player)
<However, this gun can no longer be upgraded more, since its PERM>

The actual list of GOLD guns to be chosen should be polled / chosen by gamers in forums etcs.

Guys leave ur comments here~ Pls no flaming!

Great idea but it wouldn't appeal to many, as 95% of the player base are full AP. They have no use for gold guns, despite the fact that its PERM. However I do think that this scheme would be beneficial for Gold users and spending 1.2 million Gold to get a the weapon seems about right.

Actually im thinking along the lines of, since they have a perm gun, they wont need to spend so much gold on them. Hence, they can use the $ saved to go buy armour/tattoo etcs. Like that, they will have more resistance towards AP-er.

Note that im also AP user.... So may not understand fully pains of a gold-er... but still, i think it might work XD

*1.2m gold is just to reward those ppl who actually save that much $ as an old-school loyal player*

I think this will actually appeal to many ppl, cuz its a PERM (LOL).
And GOLD guns like xem r still useable against AP thickies.

But what i worry most is about the choice of guns in the selection lists. Bound to be full of conflicts between forummers, or do a "Your Own Choice" event like this recent 1 (but will add on to the workload of those poor souls behind the comps answering our emails...)

I quickly read this and I tell you that this is a good idea. Though the lackiest side is that, well, I cannot myself afford to that kind of tier at all. I am simply far too poor on gold.

So what am trying to say on above is that this tier is kind of made for AP spenders who haven't wasted their gold... =/. I like the permanent gold buyable gun- idea though!

I also had an idea but not related to this. I'll see if I bother to write it down though.

Gold currency guns have been nerfed and AP armour has been toughened up. As a result these Gold currency guns are too weak to infiltrate the armour. It takes 25 hits to the body and approximately 5-6 to the head. By that time the AP user would have bunny hoped and sprayed you with his Elwrci (meaning you would be dead before you have taken 3 shots). His armour would have tanked all your hits so they lost 0 HP. I know this from personal experience, as I use Gold currency weapons myself to play.

Well... all i can say is... wait for the nerf patch coming from softnyx.

They do a approx 10~15% Nerf (although they say cap armour point 85, but after experiements, its just a % nerf) on anything that's above 85 Armour point (eg. SP/WL)

It will be useful... XD
But now, sz SL / c95 SL r still useable as GOLD guns and hit chunks... Can be a choice of perm too (although cant be upgraded).

I have seen AK/XEM/awp users mass-killing AP-ers, just take skills o_o

*Basic gold weapon literally did nth to SP armour, other than stout HS*
sad truth, lol >.<
But this event might help those who hoard their gold as an old school players.
Since AP-ers wont find gold guns useful, most probably they wont aim for this event either.
Only those Gold-ers will be interested and work for it
But duration of event is important, too short = nobody can earn the perm gun, too long = everybody will have perms and perms no longer have that "Holy sh*t ITS PERM!!!" feeling.

IMO, maybe, a month?

I do agree with you that it takes skill but when your hits are being tanked by their armour and then they bunny hop and spray you (always with an Elwrci) you stand no chance, skill/experience doesn't play a role in it then.

But I would love for this suggestion to be implemented so I can get my favorite Gold currency gun for PERM.

Good idea, but not that good.
When you are a non-ap player, how to reach 1.2 million gold?
Sure, some people got that much, but those are full-ap players and dont spend their gold.
So basicly, this is another reward for buying ap.

nice try tho.

I could easily clear all that and I'm not an AP player nor have I played this game for like 4 months now.

It's just, what am I going to do with only one upgrade to a gun?
M4 ST? M14 with scope? Turret? Rockets? Grenade Launcher? Pistol?

EF2k with the scope pretty much does the job, stout with e barrel... But yeah not much. I would like to have a perm gold gun though.
