CS points, how much cost?

[Destrus]

Chances are they won't.
Not only does it force people to buy cash shop items but also it prevents people with multiple accounts from amassing points in events where cash shop points are handed out.

But then again, in cb2 cash shop items that people did get thier hands on were tradable.
They might impliment a gift system though.

if they're not tradeable then they won't get money due to the cs wants of those who wouldn't spend money. if it's tradeable they will because people who will spend the money sell to those who won't in game so they'll buy more than what they want for themselves

Its all different in each game really...

I don't think people will really just buy cash shop items to sell to others do they?

Show me a statistic or whatever...i'm just implying what most cash shop mmos i've seen do.

items wont be tradeable so these special holiday weapons an costumes give up on buyin them unless you use the cashshop...make cashshop items sellable ruins the game economy badly. But thats jus my opinion.

that's how it works in flyff where cs items are tradeable. there's many people that don't buy gp but they buy cs items from other players for millions of penya. a restat which costs 2kgp (~$20) sells for 150mil in game. some sets sell for about 105mil and pets can sell for up to 140mil on lawolf

-EDIT- but spros are the biggest thing, they're the easiest to sell and i think go for about 4mil each now on lawolf. you get 5 for i think 500gp (~$5) they also come in bundles for 2kgp

The economy is flyff isn't completely screwed up. Except for one server set but that is because there was a penya hack where players created billions of penya( the currency) and now everything on that server is hyper-inflated. I don't think that allowing CS items to be traded would screw up the economy but it would inflate the money a bit, which would really suck for new people

[Destrus]

there's good and bad for it. yes prices on everything tend to sky rocket so people can afford more cs items as the cs users raise their prices but at the same tim it allows for people who aren't able to use the cs to get cs items.

So far i've only heard flyff has tradeable cash shop and that the economy is screwed.
If cash shop wasn't the reason its screwed it really didn't HELP either.

aibatt's economy was screwed because they got hit hard by the effects of the penya hack a while back, from what i hear it's evening out. the inflation isn't so much because of tradeable cs as it is because of the cs sellers. the cs sellers and some impatient buyers. cs sellers of course want to raise their prices, some impatient buyers try to buy for more than current market value so the sellers start to try to raise their prices for everyone to that. then prices for greens start going up so people can afford to buy spros etc. for their sets. though the prices seem to stabilize. right now i think spros are at 4mil, blade equips are the ones that are really outrageously priced. other thigns like yoyos are pretty cheap. the economy really kinda balances itself out

[MaxOff]

well the reason aibatt has so much money is becouse its the oldest server. Aibatt is running since beta2. And it wasnt reseted since then.

The reason FlyFFs econmony is so screwed are the cash shop items, but most importantly the gigants. A High Lvler can easly make 5M per Gigant, and they love to have +10set and useless cashshop sets, so they generate shit loads of money.

And the very last reason flyff economies screwed is that it doenst have any system to let the money disappier again, so the money just grows and grows and grows.
