Check again. You can purchase coins for 10, 20 and 40 crosscrowns. Stop being so wrong and toxic.

It doesn’t justify the use of said currencies.
They could’ve put them for in-game gold. They could’ve put them for a purchase via real money. It’s not my (and not only mine) problem they are keeping the game in perpetual beta stage to not pay taxes… excluding some current events from the list.

It’s predatory because many of the vet cross out players have already ground through most of the passive bonuses they are giving out. Most of the active talents are joke worthy, they have you jumping through hoops for stuff that lasts 4-5 seconds. They are literally making you re-do stuff that was done or pay for it. You have less now then you did before. Your grind is even 2 percent more and your rewards are lower too.
If they would, I’d buy’em. The only reason I don’t is because they didn’t. Instead they invited me to jump through hoops first, hoping some spare change would fall out of my pocket in the process.

They have prices like 25, 89, 119, 99, 59 in the shop… There is more change then your imagining.

Yes, and that’s the issue, it looks like you didn’t even read what I’ve wrote. You can’t simply put a lot of small cheap items for real money on different platforms simultaneously. All platforms have different rules and restrictions towards direct real money priced items, so it would be a lot of trouble trying to sell singular skins or cosmetic items for real money.
That’s why almost every game has the in-game value specifically converted from real money. Adding 5-7 transaction options to buy the currency is MUCH easier than adding hundreds of items with individual price tags and approving each one with all four platforms.
I simply do not care about that, because their profit is not my problem.
That does not justify such use.

I know everyone has different experiences, but…
I also thought this at first, but now I find that most the the perks are pretty strong in the right hands and with the right guns.
It may only be a high PS thing but The game has became very interesting now.

Well acutally, it does. It becomes easier for the devs to implement much more new items that we, players, can buy. Win-win.
I’ve just told you why your proposed solution wouldn’t work, and you reply with “I don’t care about the company’s profits, it’s not my problem, they mist do as I wish”. Such an entitled worldview.

This isn’t an “entitlement” issue. We are expected to (over)pay for this stuff. If they can’t find an honest way to sell it, they can keep it, IMO. The shell game they play with this feature is a hustle.
Edit: I called it a “scam.” I think a “hustle” is a better word.

No, it does not. We can buy packs and BP for money. That is a thing that exists and existed before crotchcoins.
Devs became greedy enough to implement that on PC too. Since then I have 27 crotchcoins-leftovers.
You either won’t or can’t look at the problem deeper than one step or one simple solution. No reason to try and explain you the complex system that’ll help devs sell big packs of anything for real money.
That one you just made up. I never said such words. I have no reason to continue my monologue for a liar.
I think I did, and what I think right now, is you should let the hustler hustle. It’s shifty, I agree, but they are open about all the terms. Obviously, you did the math. Some people won’t bother. I don’t usually, but I know a hustle when I see it. I didn’t really need to.
Point is, I’m not feeling too bad about who the mark is at the moment, I guess.
I say, “a player’s gonna play,” and I’m not sure I have a problem with an honest hustle, now that I think about it. Like I said before, I don’t have to buy this stuff if I don’t like the terms, and I don’t.

Again, there is no unproblematic way to sell skins/cosmetics for real money on all platforms except through the in-game currency, obtainable with real money
Packs and BP come out once in several months, while skins and cosmetics rotate weekly. There is a difference between releasing several pieces of buyable content once every 3 months and having dozens and dozens of small items each worth less than 1€. On 4 different platforms.
This is when the universal currency is useful. Can you imagine League of Legends putting each skin or cosmetic for sale individually? That would be too much problems and wasted time just for one unified platform. Crossout runs on 4.
As you’ve noticed already, we can still buy packs and BPs the old way with direct transactions. And that’s good and that doesn’t change. It’s the small items that are problematic to sell this way.
Yeah that was a bit of an excageration but still, I’m trying to explain why this model is not common and is not used. Because it creates problems, which can be avoided by introducing an in-game currency. And to that, you reply “I don’t care about their profits”. But the company cares about their profits, as it has to make money somehow, and this is an easy way to save time and money. And due to that, they can sell more content without about the platforms’ transaction policies.

I think we get it. It’s the shell game they play with that currency that makes it more than just inconvenient, but a shenanigan too. Nobody’s making them play silly games for your extra change at the check-out.
Besides we already had an in-game currency.
I don’t think it’s just a high PS thing I play from 4k to 15k on really varying builds. I find most of the actives run out before they are really useful. As far as DMG bonuses go the higher the initial DMG the higher the change is going to be which will sort of slope it towards higher PS’s. Some I’m just am finding annoying like Jay looks great especially for a fast cannon but allies often block shots by accident so you end up losing the bonus really fast as all it takes is one miss to reset the bonus. We’re kind of off topic though so, maybe we should open a different topic thread for this.

It’s not like I care that much about them. XO is going downhill, indubitably. When they crack, I’ll have my laugh.
But the point is, suggestions were given and devs never cared about them even when they looked on and responded to them directly.
So you’re correct here. I do let them “hustle”, because I don’t care much.
To answer the question, I made a huge suggestion which included selling big packs for money. Big enough to avoid any problems with rules of certain plaftorms. You buy a big pack, then you sell what you don’t need. Same goes with vehicles. I’ve got 15 packs and I sold more than the half of sellable items from each vehicle.
First of all, kindly do not reply to me directly, any following bother will be marked as spam.
Second, this is THEIR profit, not MINE. I don’t see the reason why I should care about someone else’s profit. Devs are not my friends. Devs are not my family. Devs don’t give me royalty from every purchase. Devs aren’t the ones I’m working for.
Thus, I don’t care and I will never care. ¿Comprende? (a rhetorical question)
