Honestly I wouldn’t mind this system as much if the content creators received 90% of the profit as I am all for supporting smaller artists and communities.

BUT YOU DO HAVE TO PAY. To place a bid you MUST buy gaijin coin. if you loose, gaijin still has that money you converted to gaijin.

They paywall skins behind a bidding system do you have to buy no
But doas it Benefit you (if you don’t buy)no it’s only a disadvantage wen stuff you want ends up on the Auction
This Auction house is a massive L for gaijin
It doesnt work like Ebay. In which you place a bid with real money, if you win, you pay. If you loose, you dont pay anything.
This you must use Gaijin Coin. To get gaijin coin you must convert REAL MONEY to Gaijin coin. If i win, i spend gaijin coin out my account. BUT, if you loose, youve still paid to convert money to Gaijin Coin. Youre now left with having spent money BUT not even got what you wanted.
This is basically gambling!

What’s more, gaijin takes a commission, which means that with every transaction made, Gaijin coin is taken out of the exchange’s circulation, forcing players to add more for real money.
Gaijin just came up with a new way to make money, but they’re passing it off as helping Content Creators.

Also they are Only giving 30% to the creators and 70% goes to gaijin
See revenue Share program
If the auction goes well, we may see the auction of vehicles produced by third parties (such as he219 and ffa p16)
my god, every year gaijin manages to disappoint more
This makes me believe in that leak last year about the 50% nerf in general SL gain and they only denied it due to the totally negative reception

We don’t see a feature with above 90% disapproval rate often

but none of them were a way to farm money with 0 effort
That tablet didn’t swivel itself
Even with 90% disapproval, they have already made a profit with the ongoing auction
Come on, the game has been in the top of steam’s top games in terms of revenue for years now.
And also need to find out if they only count transactions through steam, since some of the sales are done through the gaijin store.
I know it’s sad but there are rumors it’s mostly gaijins bots bidding because
No bidding ever goes from 70 to 129 dollar’s instantly
And we also don’t see that in the Market Place

It is also possible to buy through the website using money from your Steam wallet, I put money into Steam and buy through the Gaijin website as the prices are less than half of the Steam prices
I know, but not everyone buys through steam wallet. Obviously, steam did not take into account such transactions in its statistics, which means that gaijin’s income can be safely doubled.

Doas it even matter? If I use Steam Wallet Credit to buy gaijin coins the money is still gone
Even if I toss in a is7(let’s pretend I had it) for gaijin coins
It’s still value voided

what I said was about the subject of War Thunder’s earnings metrics on Steam
and looking at the current biddings they are making loads because some lost souls are bidding ridiculous prices.
