Ground loot is worthless and the cost to run good ammo and guns is 25x higher than the actual value you can extract with. That means if you die it would take you 25 raids roughly to get back what you lost orrrrrr you could spend 25 dollars and get that value immediately. Approach this game with caution.

On valley its stupid easy to get 100k SOLO on Covert ops without even Shooting at a real player just sneaking around looting bots.

You can get lvl 3 armor from the bots every single time you play covert ops, that sells for 18-20k on the market. Then factor in grabbing 3 random guns from the bots, looting crates, etc. Its not hard to get 20K minimum each run on covert ops just by sneaking around and exfil. You can easily get 25K+ if you know where all the good loot spawns or luck up with loot inside of crates being purple.

It's designed this way. It uses a rotational drop rate. At the start of each week you will get more rare valuable drops and as the week goes on you get less and less drops worth money. It's just another part of the game designed to get you to spend money.

So if you really like the game (not sure when the week starts) you have to figure out when the higher drop rates occur and only play during those days as it's designed to reduce your money or worth through the rest of the week. This is a global rotation too for each region so everyone is draining the rare loot at the start of the week until it's drained.

You could just play the game 2 days out of the week if you are having issues just do it at the start of the week also pick up all the free stuff. Then when you have enough money to keep playing do more stuff.

It's a usual trick in the mobile game industry. Creates what is called the carrot usually. It's designed to get you to think you scored big then later when you are losing money for no reason it makes you think if you keep going you'll get more loot eventually but the game is rigged during the middle of the week to the end of it.

It's a mobile game on PC it's designed with the same P2W mechanics designed to get people to eventually spend money.



It's designed like those ENERGY METERS in mobile games. You get ENERGY (KOEN) at the start of the week then as it drains you have to charge it with your credit card. It's wildly good system design because it prevents players from realizing what is happening. Yet doesn't stop you from actually playing when you run out of "ENERGY". Most mobiles games have also gone this route as well to keep letting you play and you just charge up "ENERGY" for certain aspects instead.

These are the new designed mobile monetization tactics. Which are more heavily used in countries like India, China, and Russia. Although ironically the people at ActivisionBlizzard created a good number of these tactics (they own Clash of Clans etc,. and have developed newer monetization methods).

It does suck. But from the 2 months I’ve been playing I’m up to 36 mill cash and 51 liquid. Used to run valley but would only leave with 100-200k. Started running lockdown TV and the money’s just coming in. Found a secret doc and like 40 reds in just two months. I just run ♥♥♥♥ kits. So t3 armor a mosin with t6-t7 and a cheap mpx with a 50 round t4 and the rest t3 to kill scavs. I just run around hitting all the safes and put stuff in my pocket. Just rat if you have too(they put you without a team) And if you know there’s no one general office side if you pull the loading dock lever, you can make it there first if you run it. A bad run for me on tv is like 300k. I usually make it out with 500-1mil average. Also you don’t have to run the mosin but it def helps against the t6 teams that are too bad to run forbidden. I’ve collected over 40 t6 helmets and armor. Then I run forbidden with the ones I can’t sell with my tm8 and we usually just third party in forbidden and come out on top. Forbidden loot is also 10x better. But me and my friend also pulled 4 reds b2b in 3 games on lockdown Tv. So it’s just random really
