There is a such thing as "pay to shortcut" however, when the shortcut is literally surpassing all levels up to max and 7 weeks of playtime at that max rank, I thing it falls under p2w simple because you are purchasing it to.. have an edge that would take a really long time to achieve. So long if fact, you might quit the game like alot of people have before getting to maxrank. If you want to get it as a r9, that's 12 weeks of grind skipped, but as @BXNNXD said it's a car, that alone is not going to win you the mission. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its not like they can just say that and not tell anyone its actually a bit better. I estimated the 1.5s part because I dont actually know but it was quick enough to the point where I couldnt get off 2 CSG shots. "Dont fully understand the game" I guess a gold 200rank doesnt understand the game anymore. Fair enough. I was only trying to join a waterfront server that had players, and it happened to be bronze. Im trying to unlock the OSKAR from birth. CSG used to have a .7ttk, 1.5s is almost 3 shots fired at macro speed.... (macros are bannable now). I forget its ttk now, its like .75/.73/.65 something around there. They messed with the TTKS and i havnt been able to keep track Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the CSG fires slower than the OCA now, since the OCA went down to a .68 ttk unless they pushed it back to .7, csg im pretty sure went to .75. Excluding reaction time, you're almost always going to lose if the ocattk minttk's you Edited January 10, 2019 by Noob_Guardian Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Never remembered getting destroyed by OCA's or their respective "reskins" i just checked the DB, oca is .64, csg is .77. So that's why. They did a ton of balance patches in the last 5 years, so weapons are nothing like you would have remembered them, i only know basic general stats. I havnt played much in the last year or so, to keep up with everything either, but i stay on forums at times to check whats up.

Its not like they can just say that and not tell anyone its actually a bit better. if you dont even trust the company to tell the truth about a little thing like weapon stats, why would you even bother to play the game lol regardless the hard numbers are available on apbvault, altho if you really dont trust the company to tell the truth you could just test it for yourself ingame 5 minutes ago, Kanav said: I estimated the 1.5s part because I dont actually know but it was quick enough to the point where I couldnt get off 2 CSG shots. if it was just an estimate then its entirely possible that you got min ttk'd by an oca reskin before your second shot, they (including the f2p version) are very strong weapons and shotguns are currently a little overnerfed 7 minutes ago, Kanav said: "Dont fully understand the game" I guess a gold 200rank doesnt understand the game anymore.

yood 345 Posted January 10, 2019 6 hours ago, liav said: I guess that you didn't play this game enough to understand and realize, that this game is absolutely NOT pay to win. Almost every weapon in the armas marketplace is a reskin of an already existing weapon that you can buy for 10 days lease. And those who aren't reskins are not even that good and can be countered by other free weapons. The only "good" weapons that I can think of which are not reskins and are STILL easily countered are probably gonna be the: Euryale, OSCAR, CSG/TAS20. Can't think of anything else currently. liaison weapons and Armas weapons are different . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also in how your rank does matter in your understanding the game ? Ill check it out, but it probably wont mean much if Im not going to play again. "Also in how your rank does matter in your understanding the game ?" .. Um I dont know, experience and actually playing and understanding the game? I have about 800+hours so I would say that sufficient enough to understand the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When I said "not true" I meant that people were saying there are no issues with weapons; people saying those remarks are not true. If you look back in this thread people said that the cheater issue is almost non-existent or said player was versing someone alot better than them.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you look back in this thread people said that the cheater issue is almost non-existent or said player was versing someone alot better than them.. not all armas weapons are reskins but what i meant was that there will always be weapon balance threads, because there will always be a different opinion on weapon balance saying that theres less cheaters than someone thinks isnt the same as saying theres no cheaters, of course if someone thinks beyond a doubt that theres x amount of cheaters then any reason/excuse just sounds like a cover for said cheaters, not much to be done about that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
