CSS sucks

Every week prices change?
That's ridiculous

A deagle costs 2.4k
Kevlar/helmet costs 4k
Kevlar costs 800

Lameeeeeee

I believe it's based on usage. If a gun is used more = price of the gun goes up. I don't get it though

Its dynamic pricing, and only some servers have it enabled.

If you like 24/7 office, go here 209.160.36.102:27015
Server is in Seattle, you'll get good ping and don't have to deal with dynamic pricing.

Dynamic pricing idea isn't being done correctly too. I watched the prices for a while and a few weapons, M4, AK, deagle would sky rocket in price, as it's designed to. On the flip side, things are supposed to get cheaper when they aren't bought as much, the price doesn't drop nearly enough, mostly just saving $100 or so, so you don't really save a bunch either.

This is far from an implementation of a free market. Not to mention suppliers would see the demand and start producing more ultimately saturating the market again. Considering you have to buy a gun every time you die too you?d end up with a map that's a foot deep with used guns. It's a rather obnoxious concept to use in a game where people just want to have fun.

Most servers have this garbage turned off.
