Counter-Strike: Source Gets Dynamic Weapon Prices  by Craig D at 11:14

PC
It seems that Valves second set of Counter-Strike: Source core gameplay changes changes involve making weapon prices dynamic on a weekly basis, the more people buy certain weapons, the more expensive they will get. The price details for the first week can be found on this steampowered.com page.

I'm guessing the idea is to try and force people into using different kits more often and that will hopefully keep the gameplay fresh. My own opinion is that the game needs new maps desperately.

It's not a nice idea its a stupid fking idea by valve, I know lets make it so the things like kevlar which everyone uses will go threw the roof, so that only the crappy weapons like the mac ten will be cheap. AWFUL idea but then again its valve what do u exspect they did change the netcode to make it more hpb biased when broadband was coming out

well i guess that means the price of the m4 and ak will shoot through the roof but the sig and the aug will probably get cheaper which could be nice

I guess that would make night vision goggles free if its based on how many times they get used

So do they really think this will bring people back to the game? Making dynamic gun prices. Thats utterly stupid. Eh valve just keeps getting worse.

Valve are idiots when it comes to multiplayer games, always have been always will be. They make stunning single player games but when it comes down to what the community wants or what would be best for a game online they dont have a clue.

They did make HL1 though stan... which became so popular modders went mad for it. I agree they are shit now... but they do deserve a little respect for that one game
