Best mode for drops?
Hello people! I've not played in a long time.(I do have a premium account tho) I was wondering what the best mode is to play, to get the most items I can to sell on the market? I've been hearing people say they are making a lot of money from items on this game. Just wondering what mode is the best for that?

You don't get more or less items depending on what mode you play -__-

well if i am right every mode has the same percentage of drops no matter what. basicly they are making money because they may of did good trades back when tradeing came out. back then i could of had i think ten max heads or so but the hat was not interesting to me. in other words theres a possible one thousand dollars gone.

You can only get normal weapons on a drop, they arent worth anything.

-You get about 7 drops a week (all normal weapons)

-You have like a 1/1000 chance to find a hat (also not worth much)

You will not make any money finding drops.

And you can find drops in any game mode, no game mode offers more or less.


EDIT: You are Free to play ... You cannot sell/trade anything you find.

The REAL money from this game comes from Buds and unusuals ... Unusuals can fetch hundreds of dollars but you must unbox them to get them or buy them ...

I dont know much about buds other than they are 34$ a piece.

They would've been talking about Mann Up, whenever you complete a tour in Mann Up you get rewarded an item you can't get elsewhere in the game.

However you can only play Mann Up if you have Tour of Duty tickets and they cost a dollar each and are only good for a single mission. A single tour is multiple missions.

Mann Up!!!!! That is what they were talking about. Well that's good to figure out, thank you! Tho I see now I still misunderstood a lot :) At least you all helped me get it straight, thanks all!

most of the drops that you get aren't marketable.

So you got to keep the game for free back then? Nice! I paid for it, like a chump I guess :) Well worth it tho, great game to kick back and kill with.
