Lister posted:Look at the sale history of the other crates. It's always better to sell them around Fri/Sat. I know and I also know I spent 30 minutes trying to set up a buy order earlier for the Desperado crate and Steam wouldn't let me do it. Also, sales of them tanked from 3-5k per hour to 600-800 per hour at the exact same time. e: I have also seen nothing but sell orders and cancelled sell orders in the recent activity tracker during this time. Purchases don't show up and the amount of crates has sat at 27.5k the entire time. Regrettable fucked around with this message at 09:27 on Jan 15, 2018 |

Yeah, it really seems like it's going to be the best way to make money on this until the prices tank. That might take awhile since it would likely require that most of the people buying them collectively realize they can just buy them in game for cheaper and new people are joining the game every day.

Goons have somehow missed the entire reason keys are overpriced. They allow you to bypass the 7 day waiting period to sell boxes you unlock because they are old converted keys.

I've decided that the new map is a lot more fun when you try to play "Escape from Pecado" every time. There is always a bunch of people in Pecado that want to fight. Great fun.

daslog posted:I don't like Hacienda because it's over so fast. I'll have to try Power Grid. Of the lot I usually find Campo Militaro the most boring. Power Grid on Duo EU FPP sees anywhere between 2 and 10 teams drop each time, and if it's not enough for you, Pecado is a minute's walk away. Minas Generales can be quite hot, and sometimes Water Treatment too, but I don't like either.

I like Campo if I'm dropping solo into squads, because it's far enough away from most of the flight paths that people drive there and they ALWAYS assume they'll be the only people there, so they spread out a ton to loot. You get to play horror movie villain, as you hunt them through the barracks and stuff.

Water Treatment and Power Grid always tend to end with me getting good loot and then lugging it for miles before I can find a vehicle. Once found a motorbike spawn at north end of power grid but that never happened again. Going into Pecado on foot gets old really quick. Water treatment has roads close by with some spawns but it's much less likely to be in the first circle. Hacienda is just hosed up. It's worse than School at this point because it can have a dozen people drop in such a tiny space. Sure I get kills, but there is no time to heal and luck becomes so important I just skip it now.

You can spice up your Power Grid routine by walking to San Martin for a vehicle.

Bea Nanner posted:Campo sucks. Prison is cool, if you are super lucky with the plane. And by super lucky you mean crashing like my friend on the airplane loading so the game spawned him into prison on foot, with loot and poo poo, while the rest of us was flying. The stars aligned for a prison landing too so we baited a lot of mad dudes into a fully kitted out level 2 SCAR.

Just had a couple of solid triple island drops with great loot + jetski plus not terrible circles. Of course I hosed up and made bad choices and lost because that's just how I roll.

Me too! Except el pozo, got a couple of kills, got screwed by the third circle but managed to make it there on foot with most of my health when there were 7 people left. Got the drop on a guy with a ghilli suit, but shoulder fired instead of ADSed because i reverted back to the default rmb. Missed a couple key bullets because he leaned when he started firing, something I had never even considered. My reticle was right where his head ... should've been. One more bullet and i woulda killed him.

Yeah a few days ago I decided to solo drop on the northern island off the east coast and wound up with a chicken dinner. The gear there was pretty good and I'll probably be going back every now and then.

If I'd had the gear from the first game in the second, I would have been able to dome a couple of idiots standing still with a Kar98, but I had an M4 and just couldn't effectively engage at the distances I needed to.
