Prices - crazy (why market manipulators are helped?)

Shoot mobs that are your size

I have lost shitloads in the last weeks... So a week ago I rethought. I took of my 5 plates, switched from ghost to gremlin, bought a p5a and started camping low endish mobs. And hell, all of a sudden I break even AND have fun!

I LOVE the big mobs, and occasionally go hunting them... but I almost always loose much, ofc That's the HUGE entertainment part which I gladly pay for. If you want to keep playing for a long time with your peds, go shoot something that doesn't give you much decay.

And concerning your question... MA doesnt want everybody to wear angel and ML35...

Rubbish.
It doesn't cost much to hunt with Opalo, does it?

There's so many levels to participate in EU at. Higher level usually means higher cost. (Unless you're already uber)
You need to find the level you're willing to pay for, and able to have fun at.

It's the same for all of us. I'd also love to have better gear. Much better ofc. And the skills to profit too.
Would be cool.


If you're unable to have fun in EU, for a cost you find acceptable, then maybe it's time to move on.
Demanding this to change is whining.

So... we don't need to have wishes or something like this? We are here just to shoot some low mobs and go somewhere else? OR maybe because we want to go to the next level?

Well dude... tough luck!

I see guys IRL with kick ass cars but I still go to work with the bus.

World is not fair dude ... you can't have jag, angel, shadow eon or other uber weapons and armors because you simply can't afford it. EU is not like other games where if you play for a while you get be have the best items the game has to offer.

Learn to live with this and play EU at your level.

Sure we all wish for something better. Everybody wants that. That's what makes EU work.

If you want to upgrade your gear you need either luck, hard work, or money.

I think that the point being made is that there used to be an element of aiming for the next item / armour up in the chain from pixie to shadow.

Now, with the prices for jag and up (female jag at +30k? OMFG!!!) have gone incredibly high due to market manipulators / resellers, rich impatient kiddies etc a person litterally hits a glass cieling at ghost/gremlin level and unless they deposit enough to buy a small car IRL there is NO prospect of them getting any better equipment.

A year ago, a female jag set cost +6k. This was a realistic target for peple to aim for, now at 30k+ it is all but impossible without a huge deposit.

People need goals, and if there are none other than skill goals then EU quickly becomes boring and people will not continue to deposit knowing that the next level of equipment will always be out of reach.

I understand that there must be uber items, but jag? uber? or manipulated?


Anyhow, my deposits have stopped. What is the point if I am always gonna be stuck in my boar + (L) weapons?

He he, then all i can say is... i can't wait for the times when a Maddox IV can be 100kpeds and a ML 500-700kped.... And maybe Opalo won't be in TT and will cost like 5-10kped lol. who want to sell me 10-20 Maddox IV? I'll be at TT buying 1000 opalo's...
