So yeah by this auction alone they would make near 500K in gaijin coins and they don’t see the issue here.
More GJN will get sucked out of the market making things more expensive, another thing to note they will get another cut of this if the player sales the item on the market.
they cant deny it because its the goal
but admitting that would probably scare away the last 2% that like the auction idea
exactly so seams like gaijin already made out its mind about this
and this so called test is just to count the profits
You don’t know how hard I’m trying not to swear but think deeply into this just want to make myself hit a brick wall
They won’t address such topic in a particular answer in this topic.
If they acknowledge the backlash, they should do another article doing a complete disclosure on their intentions.
i wanted to eat my keyboard yesterday already
Luckily I can control my anger otherwise there would of been pots everywhere.
even though there was lol
this is gaijin intention nothing else
creators dont what to deal with the backlash of having their skin on there
Not doing that would be extremely weird from a business point of view.
wtf happened to the bids
it now says 23.00-23.50 for the frame and asks for a bid from 23.50
Dunno, just checked myself
Could be a blip or delay in the server, they could have rolled it back, they maybe adjusting some values
Think the interface looks different
So they might have done something
They show you now only the 6 lowest bids that qualify to buy the item. This way people won’t be able to figure out how much money in total Gaijin gains with these auctions.
Makes sense from Gaijin’s perspective. It’s their way of making players “less unhappy” with the system, by hiding even more information from the player base. No more “how could someone bid 150 GJN for this frame?!”, because you simply won’t be able to see the highest bids.
Even more hiding behind mechanics, this makes it worse…
Just nothing here’s no provision in the current WT.live contract and Gaijin legal rules for a 30% cut on a camo, UNLESS it’s distributed in an official marketplace box.
Any other camoes are fixed fee with a ceiling of 800 GJN.
This could of course change before creator auction camoes go live, but at the moment Gaijin could only legally give them that fixed amount.
its just a theory on the cut, that’s all, we don’t know for definite
Have they seriously hidden the top prices ?
no its working again
Sure ? On my end it’ still says 23
I saw 3 people bid on the plane and you can scroll again, but it seems to have frozen and gone back to the lowest price, just wait until there is activity and then you can scroll through the 100 bids
