The game Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, known among gamers as CS: GO, has won many fans since its release. Millions of people around the world have sought and continue to strive now to earn high ranks and achieve certain successes in the game. Doing this without the right equipment is not so easy. How much do you need to spend on the purchase of weapons and armor and what inventory prices are currently in effect in Counter-Strike?
What determines the cost of inventory
The cost of CS: GO equipment in some cases amounts to a decent amount that exceeds not only the price of the computer on which the game is installed, but also in general the cost of all the gamer's property. What guides developers in pricing? An important role is played by the characteristics of the weapon and its appearance. In addition, such parameters as the capacity of the clip, the speed of reloading, the quality of items (well-worn, hardened, tested, etc.), as well as additional bonuses (reducing the speed of taking hostages, for example) are taken into account.
Items of equipment and weapons in the in-game store or on special resources can be very expensive. The price of CS: GO inventory is determined by the skin, that is, the appearance of the rifle, knife or armor. The most popular, and therefore expensive skins for AWP Azimov, Dragon Lore and Sleeve. The chance of getting them in the game is very small, so the cost of CS: GO inventory made in these styles sometimes reaches several thousand dollars.
The cheapest inventory in CS: GO
Novice gamers are best to master the game with inexpensive, but at the same time powerful weapons. The cost of CS: GO inventory from this category is usually covered by in-game currency, so players will not have to invest real money in the game. So, we present the cheapest inventory:
- armor on the body and head of Kevlar, Kevlar + Helmet, Rescue Kit, Defusal Kit (from 400 to 1000);
- Glock-18, P2000, P250, CZ75-Auto and Desert Eagle pistols (300 to 700);
- submachine guns MP-9, MP-7 and MAC-10 (175, 1250 and 1700 respectively).
A little more expensive for players will cost assault and sniper rifles. The cost of CS: GO inventory from this group of goods starts from 1500-1700 units of in-game currency. The cheapest are SSG 08 sniper rifles, AK-47 assault rifles and Galil AR. A small amount will also require the purchase of pomegranates.
The most expensive items in CS: GO
What equipment in the CS: GO game will cost players incredibly expensive? Of course, first of all, it is worthwhile to attribute to expensive items those that have the ability to penetrate reinforced armor, reduce the installation time of explosive devices or render them harmless, etc. These are SCAR-20 and G3SG1 sniper rifles, the cost of which in game currency is about 5- 7 thousand.
No matter how strange it may sound, the most expensive CS: GO inventory just has the original colors: under snake skin, with flames and the like. The chance of getting such weapons as a reward for the battle won is so small that many players prefer to buy skins for real money. At the same time, a gamer can lay out over $ 2,000 for the beautiful appearance of his rifle.
How to get expensive equipment: donate or not?
There are several ways to get an expensive weapon or skin. One of them is absolutely free: to participate in combat gaming battles as often and as long as possible. But the fact is that the chance of obtaining such equipment following the results of the match is too low, only 0.2-0.5%. That is why many prefer to resort to the purchase of boxes with weapons, the cost of which is $ 2 per piece. At the same time, do not forget that rare skins, knives and rifles are found in every two hundredth drawer. The easiest and at the same time expensive way to get rare inventory is to buy it on special resources. In this case, the gamer will have to pay at least $ 500 for one item.
Many beginner gamers may wonder whether it is worth investing money earned in real life in the game to get a killer or just beautiful weapon. Maybe there is a chance to collect decent instances, devoting a little more time to the game? Or discard all doubts and just buy your favorite rifle, say, for $ 1,500? Of course, buying weapons or skins for him is voluntary. For example, one Finn became known around the world due to the fact that the cost of his inventory in CS: GO was almost $ 44,000.
