So let's talk about FFA R&D3

[Mitne 713]

So, when it comes to FFA R&D3... ain't that a rare gem in game right now? Almost nobody owns it and almost nobody is able to afford one even if they wanted (prices are ridiciolous because whoever has it, can dictate prices pretty much unchallenged...).

But I don't see anyone having problem with that. And when they do, they are silenced for being silver and wanting to take only worth thing away from people blah, blah. So here it is. I'm owner of FFA R&D3. I could afford maybe two more if I really wanted (with such prices...). They are unscoped OBIRs with 3 mods slots, agreed. But question is why they aren't at Anne yet?

I think since we want all legendaries to lose they unavaliability status, that's only way to do it. Put it on Anne. Maybe make it so each lease is 10k JT so people don't whine. I don't care. For me it can be 2,5k JT. Nothing justifes fact that this weapon is somewhere in shadows and only owned by few. I don't even use it. For me it's symbol status.

So make it avaliable.

Some guns on Armas aren't even leased in the Joker Store yet, pretty sure they're more focused on matchmaking atm.

i thought them releasing it last year as a limited time item would tell u the answer

[BlatMan 683]

Releasing it for a limited time is probably the only financially sound decision this company made. If it's rare, idiots will burn dollars to get it.

I got 2 in past . . . One gave to a  friend of mine and dear battleteamate for several years on his birthday and another one during a contest/event the clan we've arranged.

Still no idea for the hype, I don't know how much is the price nowadays but despite the rarity FFA is pratically just a questionable worse Obir.

It's just a reskin of Obir. most ppl use it as a status symbol, functionally makes 0 difference. No one should care about it tbh

Do you realy thinking it is "just" a reskin?

How you can get the details from the weapon, Datamining?

 

Skins are not just a optical change. If Skin A have a long barrel and skin B have a short barrel, this can make the difference in close combat (around a corner for example).

Its because the bullet spawn can be different.

Ultra rare guns are okay in my book.

It's the same. Give a wall a hug and try it.

LMAO  . . . anyway for "details from the weapons" you can check by yourself in APBdb as below

Let it stay that way.

Giving stuff away is just plain communism, we can't allow that.

 

Seriously, there have to be rare things.

In case of FFA, it's perfectly fine balanced rare thing: acting identical to obir, giving you no special reward other than having it itself. A collector's item in a nutshell.

 

Put it up to joker store and you'll just break someone's theoretical stimulus to grind, and rather many one's feel of having collector's item. This way you'll ruin it for a few that enjoyed it and won't get much off many who'll buy it of a contact and forget about it, cus, as said, it is nothing special if it's not rare anymore.

Which means they can easily add this data in game to the weapon descriptions. Realistically, all they need to do is set the description textbox to use unicode, then they can list all the stats below the description. I'd remove the visual bars, since they don't mean anything.

FFA is a similar case to OCA Whisper. It's based on an existing weapon, but it's not functionally identical. Where the Whisper has 20m increased range, the FFA has reduced zoom angle when ADS. The increased range on Whisper is mostly a meme, but the reduced zoom angle on FFA is actually quite useful. I hesitate to say it's "strong", but it's definitely a noticeable advantage.
