Lord Foul.

Please consider this as a serious offer.

I will give you 3.5 Million for the Squadcar.

I know you have had higher offers, but 3.5 million is all I have in cash.

I will then GIVE AWAY the Squadcar in a competition to the player who comes up with the most amusing statement that starts with: "I really want a Squadcar because........"

You can choose the winner Lord Foul.

You have a 'community support' badge LF so back it up!
Like i said before- you will have another SC in 12 weeks time anyway.

Seriously, this entire thread is the epitomy of how far this game has gone in the wrong direction!
9 Million for a car that is not really any better than several other 60k cars in the game, and has nowhere near the usefulness of a Turin that can be had for 'just' 3 million, does not reflect what the economy would really be like in a post apocalyptic, mad max world.

Threads like this are the reason I am going to give everything I have away in the next few weeks and go total SCAV.

Rant over- sorry to hijack your thread Lord Foul.

Love always,
Brun.

My point in a nutshell (literally!)

16 Million for one car that isn't exactly a battle winner like a Fire engine, or Ambulance can be- am I the only player who realises that this proves the economy and original concept of DW has got lost somewhere?

If someone wants to pay 16 mill for a squadcar then I say let them. It has absolutely no impact on my gaming experience.

The cost of rares is only so high because money is trivial to aquire.

If the total amount of available cash were suddenly reduced by a factor of 10, thus making cash much harder to come by in Evan...


...somebody would still bid 1.6 million for a squaddie.

The more time you spend in Evan, the more resources (of all kinds) you acquire. Spend how you like.

Brungoat?!?!? Not sure how well that will go over in the community  :rolleyes: 

Congratulations Celtic on your purchase.

But there could have been a much better way to determine a winner for the next time a squad car, (or any other rare vehicle), becomes available to auction. 16 players put up $1MIL each. They all get put into an Arena Combat and fight to the death.  :o  (Same vehicles and weapons per player and gangers would be capped at 49 skill) Last ganger standing gets the car. Brutal as hell, but it would be great event to watch. We also make it an event that requires a PW for ring side seats that would be PPV. Hows that for stimulating the economy?!?! lol

Foul just got paid 16 mil: win.

Because either those people can't afford such an item.

~ or ~

There are some of us who already have them or had them and sold them already.

~ or ~

Some people just don't care for them or care to spend 16M on a single unit.

Nice try, but you missed the point of course.

He said it's easy to get that money.

It isn't.

All the reasons you added are part of the equation.

Wasn't arguing against you on this one.

16M is not that easy to come by, sustaining it *MUCH* harder.

Here's for hoping a patriotic yank buys the rustbucket. I've got a Squaddie skin (just like all the other skinners) that never got uploaded.

Free if you let me ride the squaddie in one event :D I could also host the skin.

Knowing me, I'd make a War Machine nightmare skin w/ with a dominatrix pinup and all sorts of other details.

Hmmmm

Written on the side... and skin name.

This wasnt about having a battle winner like a Fire Engine or Ambulance (already have more of those than I can realistically use anyway) It was about having something very few others own, and since I have been unable to compete due to personal life availability, and I do have umpteen millions collecting dust, I decided I wanted one. Save your money and next time one goes on market, I promise I won't be bidding against you (a second one isnt worth that imo).
