buy open slot csg
put cj3 on it
you now have a jg with 15m range and tighter spread
the catch? It costs twice as much as other guns... but it IS a better gun so... I dunno just isnt a good look tbh

Quoting myself here as reliable sources have since reported that cj3 on the csg feels awful.

You know you're having a good time when you look at the weapon category on sale and you realise you have all the weapons on sale.

[Ebola-Chan 59]

9/11 special

 

nice

[Dispirit 16]

I think its clear at this point that all this "content" they keep promising us has been scrapped and they are just trying to make as much money as they can before they pull the plug on the game. This lot couldn't run a fucking bath. Shut it down and stop scamming people with FOMO shit. 1 fucking slot hahaha I really hope noone has bought this, It's honestly laughable.

They ain't even trying anymore

I am just going to post a random loading screen and dip like most of the playerbase

tip: uninstalling apb is the best way to play.

[ColorBauss 71]

They made an event that tries to sell 1-slot csg to us? Nothing else? How does this honor anyone, or do anything? It's just a weapon sale on a weapon most people already have anyway..

 

[Flaws 1031]

Marketing and the rest of it aside, as cool as a CSG with an open slot may sound initially - its actually pretty useless due to the existence of the other CSG variants that are available 365 days in the year on Armas:

• Colby CSG 'Country Gent' - 3 Point Sling 3 & Magazine Pull 2 (almost identical to Mag Pull 3 on a shotgun) and is half the price, its even discounted further with this sale (1,199 G1C)
• Colby CSG-20 RT1 - Magazine Pull 3, skinnable and cheaper than the 1-slot (1,599 G1C)
• Colby CSG-20 PR1 - IR3 is useless on a CSG (contrary to what some might want to tell you) as it already has 15m effective range which is more than you'll ever need but say you find some use for it, its skinnable and cheaper (1,199 G1C)
• Colby CSG-20 'Speed-Dater' - Tagger & Magazine Pull 2; granted its not available all the time but only on Valentines, this and the Country-Gent are the best CSG variants in the game and the only ones really worth having right now and it is cheaper than the Mk2 if I'm not mistaken.

The Colby CSG-20 Mk2 is a near-useless weapon, both for those who own a CSG variant already and those who don't. This serves no purpose to anyone who doesn't just want a "limited time", unacceptably overpriced weapon, which they probably already own a better variant of. If we're talking purely bang for your buck value here, this is a bad deal.

 

Additionally, Cooling Jacket does not work on shotguns, it hasn't worked on shotguns in many, many years so don't go thinking you'll be putting CJ3 on it - it makes the CSG even more inconsistent and unusable than it already is. Reflex Sight does nothing for Shotguns either. There simply isn't any mod to put in that slot that could justify buying this gun, especially with the pricing of it.

 

My pro tip for anyone who wants to buy a CSG now - either buy a Country-Gent and call it a day or wait until February for the Speed-Dater. These are the two best CSGs in the game and will remain so until we get a 2-slot or something better. Their single downside is that they're not skinnable but if you care about skins then buy an RT1 instead as its cheaper and Mag Pull is the most important Shotgun mod anyway.

 

Also, 15m

[TzickyT 210]

this gun feels so like a waste of money in my visions ...

 

[R3ACT3M 480]

It's a one slot csg for close to 25$ for an account bound version and 20$ for a character version. Why would anyone want to buy this, most people are just going to put IR3 on it anyways?

Seriously 1 open slot for 20$ when you can buy a version of the CSG that has the mods people will put on that gun for half that price. If it were a 3 slot csg for 20$ then maybe to someone it would be worth it. But for 90% of your player base 1 open slot does not justify 20$

That'd be just as bad honestly, I agree this sale is a mess but making something that invalidates all other CSG's as part of a limited time sale (or even as a permanent addition to armas) would be a spit in the face to all those that bought the existing CSG's which are now much worse and basically completely invalidated compared to the 3 Slot which can do everything they can and even more.

They won't actually do it, because they aren't interested in giving the players something that is actually worthwhile to buy. This entire """event""" is a cash grab by a dying company, intended to milk whatever they possibly can out of what few people still play it. A company that killed themselves by, ironically, their own greed and the horrid ethics currently on display.

I definitely like the mood of the participants in this forum topic. 
I appeal to the developers. Your problem is that you don't understand the essence of what is happening. The basic rules of the game are broken. And you put a huge bolt on it. Therefore, you do not receive income. 
The title of this topic should begin with the words about how well done you are that you finally sealed the hole in the CURRENT matchmaking and solved the problem with the broken weapon. Instead, you roll out the sale of another metagun (you think it's a metagun although in fact it's dog shit) and ask us to buy it, motivating us with the fact that you are fucking crazy.
I think it's a miracle that someone else is playing this game in its current form. They are mostly veterans. This shows that the game is really loved by the community. NON-penetrating developers are the weakest link. Three have already burst, you are next...

 

What is the point of shotguns if they lose to any gun from a distance of more than 15 meters, and NFA 9 - from a distance of less than 15 meters? The kings of enclosed spaces have long been thrown into the cesspool.
