There are no "some people who say" you just made that up because it can be checked in seconds, just say you don't use the market or know anything about it, no need to make things up.
I said that in another post of Hotschi48 where Hotschi was saying to buy a vehicle off the market... wait a while... sell it... then use the money to buy the event vehicle. All because some boat doubled in price.

I'm not sure how anyone could misconstrue that as being anything other than 20% x 3 in commission.. 60% total.

Yes I was saying back then to buy any vehicle - a ship in this case - for 22 on the market in order to sell it later on, and use any profit to buy the vehicle you want.

My bad hotschi48, apparently there are them some people who say. :steamfacepalm:

For future, its 15%.

Shakiing hands....

When I told Hotschi that it was 60% we were disusing 3 transactions @ 20% received by Gaijin and for whatever reason Google's first pick says that the fee is 20%. It may be 15%.

hate to break it to you but if you have 3 items and the fee is 20% on each item, the fee on the total is also 20%, i have no idea where you are getting 60% thats just not how maths works.

How difficult the event is will fix how many people are willing to complete it, if demand is high they will buy the stars, gaijin make 100% of this money, that they would not get if the event was easier.

Difficulty of the event is going to determine the amount of vehicles that are obtained by the end, an easier event will increase this massively both for ownership and for sales.
An easier event means a cheaper vehicle which means a larger amount of people that will be willing to spend money on it, where they might not have if the vehicle was more expensive.

You can make an event insanely difficult, like they did, but it's still a bunch of pixels that isn't even premium, it's not going to infinitely scale.

Exactly, in your example therefore less vehicles, so if the demand is high the price is high, gaijin get a bigger cut at market.

Gaijin gets the same cut regardless, the limited amount of vehicles on sale is going to massively cut their profits because it's a digital product where every sale is profit.

Originally posted by Mr.Fish:
If its difficult more people will have to buy the stars, is this your first time or something?

The stars will be more expensive, the stars will also dictate the price of the vehicle, the vehicle itself also determines if people are willing to buy it, it's not a premium vehicle, it's not a top tier vehicle, it's not a good vehicle.

I think your mistake is assuming that every completed vehicle means a sale for gaijin, when it is the opposite, they make nothing from that easily achievable event vehicle if the person keeps it and doesn't sell.

It scales both ways, if 10 people can obtain a vehicle you might get 5 who claim and 5 who sell, an easier event is going to have 20 people obtain it where 10 claim and 10 sell, in any case more vehicles available is more vehicles on sale which is more profits.

Here let me explain it slower for you:

If you plan on buying a random vehicle on the market (20% to Gaijin), selling it later for value (another 20% to Gajin), and then using the coins to buy an event vehicle (another 20% to Gaijin) then the three step changing of hands will net Gaijin 60% in total fees.

20% on the random vehicle, 20% when you sell it, and 20% when you buy the new event vehicle.

I hate to break it to you but math word problems only work if you know how to read.

By your logic, if you do the transaction twice more, gaijin will net 100% of your money and you'll go broke bro. careful.

one more transaction after that and you will owe them money :csgo_dead:

You know it's bad when Gaijin defenders also think this is too much.

Buy a vehicle for 100 (fee 20), sell the same vehicle for 200 (fee 40), buy event vehicle with the profit for 100 (fee 20) The amount of fees made by Gaijin is 80% of the total value of the event vehicle. Fees 80 cost 100.

The idea nets Gaijin 80% of the event vehicle cost in this scenario. 60% is before gains.

You all must have had common core math if you think 80 out of 100 is 20%

But you're adding the fee's of multiple transactions and comparing it to one transaction initial transaction.

Also, if we use your ridiculous convoluted way of thinking. If you change the numbers;

Buy for 100 (20), sell for 500 (100), and buy for 100 (20), Then with your ass backwards logic, Gaijins fees are 140%


Do you stop buying things at the store the end of January because all the sales tax you've spent to far add up to 100%?

This has to be bait.

If this is what is raoming around in the forums, no wonder some people can't read chat.
Not because they have it disabled or don't care, but because they just see weird symbols in the corner of their screen they can't yet comprehend.

That it how liberal decide the upper 10% don't pay enough taxes (the upper 10 % pay more of the total taxes paid then the lower 70%)
