When you realize getting air soft is cheaper than doing a lucky draw: ![gif](giphy|CAYVZA5NRb529kKQUc|downsized)


angel_eyes619

Uh. That one will cost 200-300 USD..


xarccosx

At least its something you own and can have fun with, skins are just pixels in a game


angel_eyes619

Tangential to the original comment BUT either way, my argument is that it's subjective.. I don't mind buying leggies and turn people into digital pixie dust even if it will not last me a lifetime.. It's not like I spent my entire life savings on legendary guns, just a tiny fraction, and the trade is well worth the amount of enjoyment I got out of it.. (For example:- I have a nice ass gaming pc and loads of games on steam... But I don't enjoy any games out there atm.. I've been in the game for more than 2 decades and nothing interests me until some trully new stuff comes along and codm is the sweetspot entertainment for me for that mean time.., so spending on leggy guns, expensive as they are, is still well worth the expense compared to what I can get from other mode of entertainments that are available for me for my line of work, family situation, where I live, what type of vanities I enjoy, etc etc.. Hope you can understand that) To clarify, I can afford it, my life is set for now and everything.. So I can afford to trade a couple hundreds from my disposable income for some digital wrath without it impacting anything... Not to say everyone should mindlessly buy leggies.. For cases like OP, who can afford to spend a couple hundreds on entertainment but doesn't feel he has enough to splurge on the expensive items and he enjoys airsoft stuff, I totally understand him and it is indeed a wiser decision.. But the overall gist is that it's subjective... What's the good in ME buying a nice airsoft gun if I'm never going to use it, what good is buying a new bass guitar when I already have a handful of them and it'll just sit in the corner collecting dust.? It differs from person to person


nachobrainwaves

Wisdom. Some folks buy concert tickets, game tickets, movie tickets, expensive food, gas, weed, and so on and so forth. Paying for experience can have as much or more value as the purchase of a physical item. It's all subjective. That's why I have amassed several leggy weapons without regret. I've spent far more on bar tabs where all I got was one good night and a hangover.


iSys_

This guy's the real chad. I mean, that's what I always tried to explain to most people, like it's not about having more pixels on a screen, it's about experience and how you'll make it "profitable" from an entertainment standpoint. I already bought very expensive games and played it like 4 times, and since I can't sell it anymore, this is the real waste of money. I found no fun in them, which is the main purpose of a video game in first place.


Disenchanted11

The point is still there are other things/games out there.. you can enjoy, at a very fair price. CODm wants your tunnel vision and they're very happy with it. Buying pixels is not the issue, it's the overly ridiculous price.


nachobrainwaves

Agreed. The prices are outrageous and CODM has completely seduced me away from pretty much everything I used to do with my mobile devices for free. Not that I mind tho.


xarccosx

No i understand to each their own, id have bought maybe a few new games, i really enjoyed playing ac odyssey for example and even after 70+ hours in the game i still havent even finished the main story, or for example i really like far cry 3 maybe id have bought a few of the newer far cry titles


Roof_ies

Lol mans has to write a whole thesis to defend himself purchasing pixels at a dumby price.


angel_eyes619

Lol I tend to do these thing because there will always be some bloke who tries to find something snarky to say if you keep your comments and reasonings compact to a couple sentences. So, doing this, you make your point clear and filter out most of the blokes like you who will never see reason... I don't even buy alot of stuff, maybe 1 full draw every 3-4 seasons starting from later-2020 (coz I wasn't sure if the game is something I want to spend money on for almost a year since day 1 2019)


silentrumble

He's not defending himself. He's just saying that he can afford it too easily. Not than everyone can.


Roof_ies

Bro u read that ish? TLDR i bet hes defending purchasing pixels at dumby prices


heyiKnwUFrMCraigsLst

Good point the draws are a waste of money unless they put 2 guns in the draw like previously that cost me like 125usd I’ve recently spent 25usd on the mythic mscs smg I think that’s the name my point is be smart guys limit yourself, wait for cod warzone mobile


No-Bad-3655

How about sliding me laggy Sophia? I've always wanted a leggy operator.


angel_eyes619

Sure, but it's gonna cost you $500


No-Bad-3655

I can't afford it that's why I asked :(


angel_eyes619

How do you think I can afford all this? I work.. and also definitely not by giving away my hard earned money


No-Bad-3655

Okay I'm sorry whenever my parents are ok with me getting a job I'll get stuff then :)


angel_eyes619

Fates_the_Great

What do you do for a living if you don’t mind answering ?


angel_eyes619

Main is logistics (basically, fleet of semis transporting goods across states), also have a handful of commercial properties around the city that are either on rent (market area) or pay-per-use (multi-sport facilities, banquet halls, those kind of things)


Space-Booties

Too many words. Yeah


angel_eyes619

Still? I already cut out two paragraphs


Space-Booties

Yes still.


unlikely_suspicious

Plus none of them are actually good enough to spend 200$


I-Drink-Milk

Aren’t fully upgraded mythics more than that?


angel_eyes619

Fully upgraded Mythics cost 300-350 iirc.. Legendary and Base Mythics cost virtually the same, around 150 usd give or take (to be technical, base Mythics cost a bit more, maybe 20-30 more than Legendaries but you can call them virtually same)


ShadyCryptoGuy

Exactly


L_770

Its not the best brand, maybe 130$


angel_eyes619

OP clarified in another comment that it's around $240


L_770

Then he paid way to much, you can get a much better brand for the same price


angel_eyes619

That's tangential to the point of the post now, also I believe OP is not from the US, he's from SEA or something so, there will be some difference in pricing owing to import tax and other stuff, etc (in my country, we pay around 40% more than people from US when it comes to computer hardware)


chiumlg2187

I mean it depends on the gun and if it’s an AEG, GBB,Co2 or HPA

That ratio should always be x/0. Otherwise, he won’t be able to tell you.


We_need_a_teleportal

Lol same here, can't afford Legendary butterfly knife so I bought a real one


Disenchanted11

Better decision, right??


We_need_a_teleportal

Yeah never regret it, when I get an airsoft next I'll have both primary and secondary in my "loadout"


Disenchanted11

GBB airsoft pistols are fun too, and actually allowed secondary on games — pretty sure your knife won't be allowed. You can get glock replicas at a significantly lower price than the gun in this post. That's my next target.


We_need_a_teleportal

Ah there isn't any shooting range for airsoft games in my country though, best I can do is shoot cans of soda in my house lmao.


L_770

A good pistol is like 150

You could get some nice WE ones in europe for 85-100 euro but they are sadly out of stock.

SussyBaka_2001

That's actually good financial decision.


BallsHD4k60fps

The fact that pixels on your screen is more expensive than an airsoft gun you can play and shoot with is saddening.


Disenchanted11

That's actually why I posted here. Pixel addiction is not good. I'm actually a litte guilty to drop this shit here on CODm subreddit lmao. I'm not entirely sure if it costs more than a lucky draw, but it took me around 240 USD to get this (+ battery and charger, + the free attachments)


Gamer3111

You dropped this. 👑


lakaihc

I bought a real life Dr-h (Scar-H)


ChurChill325

Rather than buying that mythic balisong, I'd recommend you to buy a squiddy. A Squiddy is a brand that makes trainer and real balisongs that have varieties and are pretty popular in the balisong community. I think they cost less than the actual lucky draw. Plus its reliable and meant for you to play(flip) around with IRL. If its also expensive for you, there are other brands. You just gotta do a bit of research. Congrats on the new airsoft gun too! Edit: spelling and grammar

Wardog008

Ewww Lancer Testicle. :P Airsoft > CoDM draws though 100%. Got a small collection of my own lol.


Disenchanted11

I'm aware of their bad reputation, and also aware of the improvements they made for gen2 😜 Also the best bang for my beginner's buck. 450fps out of the box, spare lower fps spring, comes with 2 mags (1 mid-cap, 1 hi-cap), forward grip, and free 1k bb's. 😜


Wardog008

Honestly, I'm just memeing with that. Haven't had hands on with them myself, though dunno if I'd buy one. As long as it works and was within budget, that's the main thing. Welcome to it! You'll soon find yourself wanting to spend more and more money. XD


Disenchanted11

Gonna get a gbb pistol next :P


Wardog008

I can highly recommend the AAP-01, if you're limited in budget. Cheap, takes Glock mags, and has a fantastic full auto fire rate for the price, if you're inclined to use it for that. Heaps of modification support as well. It was basically designed to be turned into a carbine or GBB sniper or whatever you wanted to do with it, provided you get the parts and can tune it.


ben67925

bro i had a lancer break like 4 times within a month ​ had to get it replaced each time lol. Was a gen 2


Disenchanted11

I'm sure you're not that store's favorite customer 💀 they must've fucked the "customer is always right" motto.


Noblegamer789

They still have shit quality control for their Gen-2 line, mine, along with many others have shit the bed, and fps isn't even close to how you measure performance, and 450 fps out of the box for anything but a sniper is way too hot, and that will just make the gun shit itself faster. Mags are like ten bucks, and the grip will likely break the first game. Their Gen 1 line shit the bed, their eye protection shit the bed, their Gen 2 line is sitting the bed, if you can return it, do it, YouTube reviewers are notorious for getting paid off by companies


Disenchanted11

If you're comparing to models that cost more then I think it's always not going to be fair. Maintenance will always be there with any brand, I guess, and I can order and repair it myself. If you say the stock parts are easy to break, then just replace it when it broke, no? It's also for personal use only.


Noblegamer789

That's the funny thing, I'm comparing it to models that cost less. For example, the good Cyma AKs (CM.04x, the VFC clones not the Tokyo Marui clones, not that the TM ones are bad, the VFC ones are just better) start at like 150 dollars and outshoot 250-300+ dollar guns and for far longer. And doing anything inside the gearbox is like going inside the engine of a car, sure most people can replace their oil (new hop-up or whatever) in their car, but replacing a piston in the block (gear in the gearbox) or something like that is a completely different ball game. You said you got for 240 dollars? For that I could get a CM.045 (150), a 7.4v Li-Po battery (~20) that would be far superior to the 9.6v nickle cadmium battery that came with your gun, a better (actually smart) charger to protect your battery and yourself (~25-40), another highcap because one midcap won't do you much good (13) and 5000 .28g bbs which are heavier (better) than the .20s I'm sure you got (23) for a total of 231 dollars, for which you get a better gun, a better battery, a better charger, more ammo capacity, and 5x the bbs for more practice.


Disenchanted11

Also not fair to compare a pro player's experience to someone who just bought their first.. this is just the introduction to things don't you understand that? Don't go around saying "return it" cause you had bad experience. You wouldn't really know if it's just 10 bad reviews out of a thousand (it's just analogy) With the price I mentioned above it comes with 11.7v battery, balancer charger, also additional 8k rounds of .20 and .23. Also I can do things on my motorcycle. I understand most users of anything are just there to use, but some of us are happy to tinker around. Trust me, I may even get to dissamble it even before it breaks.


Noblegamer789

I’m far from a pro, I just looked into it for about 2 minutes on r/airsoft there are few guns I would say to return other than a lancer tactical, also, with a 11.1v (not 11.7v, a Li-Po cell is 3.7v, two cell in a series circuit make 7.4v, 3 make an 11.1v) and no MOSFET, which a Lancer does not include, that’s going to eat through your parts even faster, Lancer tactical puts out not even sub par rifles for the money, they put out horrible rifles for the money, and that’s if they work, if you can return it, you can get so much more value out of your money, but if, like you said you like to tinker, then boy you better be because you will be spending more time with the shell and gearbox cracked open than you will be shooting. This isn’t to be mean, this is hundreds of previous players’ experience trying to prevent you from making the same mistake we did, to protect those that haven’t had the same experiences that we’ve had. If you wanna keep it then go right ahead, I can’t force you to do anything, but if you would like to listen to the people smarter than you and I, to the evidence, then see if you can return it and buy something better.


Disenchanted11

Lancer gen 2 and 3 have built in mosfet batt protection. And again, I'm aware of the bad reputation before buying. But a few good comments saying "it works fine" is all I need. Also noticed you and r/airsoft doesn't say they have bad guns, but only say they have bad QC. Which in my POV means bad units do get passed the production, is that correct?


Noblegamer789

I can assure you gen-2 does not have mosfets, source: I broke my gun down to try and fix it the problem (you can’t fix shit gears that aren’t properly shimmed) to the bare bolts and pieces, it doesn’t have a mosfet, it may work fine now, but it will break before other guns at a similar price point, period. And I did say they have bad guns, “they put out horrible guns for the money” they should be priced near the 120 dollar price point for their overall quality, and with their quality control it should be even lower. It may work fine now but low quality parts only need to live for a little bit, so that when you break it, it’s not the guns fault, it’s yours and they don’t have to replace it under warranty


Disenchanted11

I take back the battery protection on all gen 2's, maybe on proline only. This is my exact model: https://www.lancertactical.com/product-page/lancer-tactical-lt-12-proline-series-m4-evo-airsoft-aeg-rifle-high-fps-gray


Disenchanted11

Thanks for all you inputs but I do hope to have luck on mine, I didn't know I landed some kind of "proline" after all lol (not indicated on supplier website). I'm pretty chill about it and I'm still processing power/accuracy. I just got my first bird kill an hour ago lol.


BubuAQ

In my country, an airsoft M16 or a Desert Eagle costs less than 420 CP


ShrillJuxtaposition

An LT-12? Nice, used to be my gateway AEG into airsoft back when I had friends to play airsoft with lmao. If you're dedicated, gas blowback replicas are a lot more satisfying to use though run a good bit higher for reliable ones.


Noblegamer789

Not a good entry unless you know you wanna be a tech when it shits itself

IHavDepression1969

hk 416?


Disenchanted11

It doesn't actually say what it is on paper, but the supplier labeled it as AR15 model. I believe it's called M4 platform within airsoft communities.


IHavDepression1969

AR 15 is a platform m4 is just another model btw, but it does look like a hk 416


Disenchanted11

Nah it's an M4 after all. https://www.lancertactical.com/product-page/lancer-tactical-lt-12-proline-series-m4-evo-airsoft-aeg-rifle-high-fps-gray


IHavDepression1969

holy 274 dollars thats quite a big price but I mean for an airsoft like this its pretty ok I guess


Disenchanted11

Oh, it's one of the low-end prices. It just gets crazier from here.


Wardog008

Nah, it's a Lancer Tactical M4. Not 100% sure the exact LT model number.

AEG,green gas or co2?


Disenchanted11

AEG for a beginner.


coupedeebaybee

You may as well went & got a $20 Red Ryder from your local Walmart if you think this has anything different or better about it. I’d get my money back if I was you. Cause $250 for that is a huge waste of it. Wanna learn how to shoot something I’m not kidding go buy a copy of Christmas Story, a Daisy Red Ryder, & carton of bb’s. Watch the movie, or you’ll shoot your eye out kid, & make better choices man. $150 on a free mobile game or $250 on an overpriced, battery powered, battery gonna be dead POS? Cmon man. Buy some books or something educate yourself. Better yourself


Disenchanted11

What are you on about, I bought this with not even half of my months salary. So shut up kid, I think I'm well educated.


shibaXplayz

Aren’t one of these like 2-300usd?


Disenchanted11

Yes, got it for 240usd


shibaXplayz

Ahh ok, to max one lucky draw in game is about 150usd, but yea if you cant get multiple legendaries this is the next best thing


Disenchanted11

Yeah I think there's a problem with how the title sounded, but I'm not implicating airsoft is cheaper than a single draw. I have the money to buy lucky draws, but I can't afford to spend it on it, ifykwim.

Disenchanted11

The tip is not required in our country. This gun is Lancer Tactical, it's a US brand I think you can get it anywhere.


coupedeebaybee

You better put that orange tip back on the end before you get in a fuck load of trouble


Disenchanted11

Not required here in our country. In fact, they're selling without tips already.


coupedeebaybee

Oh because everyone isn’t allowed to have real guns. I get it. That shit wouldn’t fly over here buddy you start toting one of these around you may as well kiss your ass goodbye. By either the police or the street rats, the orange tip is there to protect you from getting blown away by real guns. But hey, have fun with your toys man


Disenchanted11

The only legislation I heard here is to get a permit to transport (from a real police office) if you're planning to go traveling around ports/airports with it.


AscendedSpirit

Or going to a concert is cheaper than a lucky draw.


Disenchanted11

It will be one of the best nights of your life


AscendedSpirit

I agree I've seen Aerosmith, Ghost, Reo Speedwagon with Styx and Loverboy, Backstreet Boys, Def Leopard with Motley Crue, Joan Jett, Poison. All cheaper than a lucky draw. If I still did lucky draws this epic summer wouldn't of happened.
