Six guns were added, not 7. More guns will be added in the near future.

My concern is that if we release weapons at this set-price, we're not really helping the economy. It's necessary for a reset to take place BEFORE releasing an all-gun shop. Although, this is not an all gun shop, the consequence is that those who purchased lets say the Black Lotus at 150k, now lost 95K. This is applied to other guns. This does not help the economy, rather harms is UNLESS, as stated above a reset takes place.

Other than that comment:

GREAT JOB!

People put too much emphasis on the economy in Era. There is no reason Era needs to have a complex economy. It should be about PKing, raiding, gangs, events, etc--not buying and selling items.

I had the same idea for N-Pulse actually about 5 months back (vaguely anyways).

So I can easily approve of this :P

Obviously they thought the gun was worth 150k when they bought it, otherwise they wouldn't have paid 150k for it. The stats on the gun haven't changed so what's the difference? You still attach the same perceived value to it.

Do you see people returning toilet paper to the store when they find out that it's on special at a different store? No. If they thought $4 was too much to pay for toilet paper in the first place they never would have bought it. Just because somebody else somewhere is getting it for less doesn't mean anything.

P.S. Big Macs are $1.90 USD in Hong Kong, how much are Big Macs where you live?

It's better to have "too much" rather than "too little" in a graal economy.

Can I get an amen from the GK playa's?

I like that they are resorting to the old idea and just doing a small group of guns at a time, hopefully after a few weeks the new prices can settle and another group can be added...

But to really get EVERY gun added the best would be to reset... or every month~ when you add more guns there will be chaos.

I personally was getting offers of 100k+ for MS, now it seems it is only worth 70k which was the point most people were fighting against.
Then again some people were selling Fn2k for like 30k... profit plz?
It's hard to balance, even harder when the staff have no idea about prices/economy.
But... whatever!

*Also, I found it funny you were trying to bounty on az :3 I don't think that kid even has graal installed.

Edit: Could use a new shop... this one's looking crowded. Why don't you have nas go steal one and make it look ugly or something?

suggestion: Don't put all the guns in Fort Knox. Move some around, make people explore a bit.

Hey your script at fort knox that returns weapons is faulty. I had 4 gold uzis and I returned 2 because I had no use for them and it took all 4 of mine. Now I don't have a weapon to use.

I have fixed the bug and added two gold uzis to your account. Anyone else who has lost items or money can make a support ticket and it will be taken care of.
