Please don’t see it as a bug, it’s a feature

Just wanted to leave this for any new people visiting our community/servers/forums for the first time. (And it’s after seeing some brain dead people in the ban appeals)

I don’t know if this is a bug or if the description is intentionally misleading, but the only real game changing thing in our point shop is the upgrades. How it’s laid out makes it seem like it’s locked behind ranks, which a lot of other servers do, but those are available for anyone to purchase and equip. In fact I think the only difference is that the upgrades are cheaper for supporters, but that’s not really a big deal.

(Also prop punch upgrade description is weird, it just increases recharge rate and nothing else)

If you lose to someone solely because they have a slightly higher crowbar speed, maybe you should work on yourself

To add onto what Park is saying - The only "gamewise advantage" you get from ranks is access to loadout and a pointshop discount

The Loudout simply lets you equip the weapons you wish to use - but doesnt matter if you are bad at the game, and if you are good at the game you dont even need it, and can win a fight with whatever you pick up - so that aspect of pay to win is out the window.

Pointshop Discount isnt worth anything unless you have intention to stay and play for long enough to earn the amount of points where the discount is useful - a no rank player pointfarming can get points faster than a ranked player only earning points through playing - so it doesnt make a huge difference in the pay to get faster upgrades aspect.

If you join the community late, there will always be players who have upgrades you dont have - simply because they put a mass amount of hours into playing on the server, and not because they have a rank.

You cant even pay to get points.

Most things that are locked behind ranks is cosmetic items such as Player Models, Weapon Skins and Jihad Sounds, which most of the time doesnt give any form of advantage.

I'd argue skins and weapon models makes it easier to quick glance at what happens during a normal fight making them a disadvantage. (though, the headless zombie combine we had in the beginning was bullshit)
