This is a guide for people that are frustrated by the difficulty of gaining their money back after buying gears. It is for non NX users, because they don't need to save GP.
Reasons For Saving...
Saving GP is a very important thing for people that do not buy NX, especially for people that care about their kill death ratio, because if you are out of GP, you are stuck with the M16, and that is a bad bad thing for most people. As we all know the M16 is a fairly weak weapon, and although it is possible to do well it does not have the same potential as other weapons .
Another reason for stacking up GP is the ability to buy Supply Cases and HiSec Cases. These are the only GP access to some of the rare weapons, and not mentioning you might actually not get the weapons you wanted, it costs a lot of money to even try it. It is not recommended that you buy these unless you have a lot of GP saved, so that is another reason why you should save GP.
Possibly the most notable is the chance of a permanent weapon, as Nexon has released and will probably continue to release GP permanent weapons.
Steps to Success
There are many different methods of saving up GP, and most of them are actually quite obvious ones.
Using the default weapon
This is the most straightforward and obvious strategy, and also the worst, because most people save GP just to not use the default weapon. Use the M16 when you have absolutely no GP, or when you are not playing for a long time (less than 40 minutes). I know that the M16 sucks big time, but it is possible to perform decently with it. Guides on the M16 could be seen in the article about M16, or you can go to YouTube to watch Baxstar's gameplay and review on it.
When you do have the money to buy a good weapon, it is still a good choice to put the M16 in your backpack. Use it when your gun runs out of bullets, or when you find a better gun lying on the ground to switch weapons. Make sure there are no enemies around you when you switch weapons.
Avoid leaving games
Do not leave a game before it is finished unless you need to do something else, or when there is a hacker. You do not get any GP or EXP when you leave during a mid-game, so the time is wasted for nothing. Most people quit the game when they are frustrated by better opponents, well take a deep breath and think calmly about how to counter them. Avoid direct combat, observe their habits and use it to trick them, which is fairly easy most of the times because most people get arrogant when they do well.
Join certain games
This is a good strategy, try to find games that finishes quickly and gives a lot of experience. Join mid-game, never go to rooms that are waiting, because that wastes your time. Capture the Flag in large maps, and Desert Thunder Fireteam are definitely the worst choices, and Capture the Flag and One Man Army in small maps are definitely the best choices, especially in Junk Flea and Death Room. Don't abuse this strategy however, because that would be considered to be powerleveling. If you have a lot of time on your hands, try out Quarantine Regen as you can build up points fast as a zombie or as a human. However if you do go for Quarantine, it is strongly suggested you have some experience with this type of game mode. Also, spend little or no GP on weapons and gear, instead work together in groups as humans and as a zombie try to get kills yourself because this is much more rewarding than having others get the kills for you as a zombie.
Don't buy luxuries
I know that luxuries are really fun, and I personally love having luxuries, but if you want to save up your GP then you honestly shouldn't be buying these luxuries. By "luxuries" I mean head gear, face gear, camos, silencers, sidearms, and two or more weapons. These all add more fun to the game, and some of them do help your gameplay, but they are really unnecessary. I will talk about each of them in detail:
Two or More Primary Weapons: It is beneficial to have two weapons, but they are expensive and it will be hard to get the money back. What is recommended instead is having your M16A3 in your backpack and switching it with a better weapon when you get the chance. As for buying three weapons, only do that if you have an Advanced Backpack and a lot of GP.
Sidearms: Although useful in an emergency, sidearms are rarely used in most games. However, not buying a sidearm does limit your options, as you would probably be better off reloading your primary than trying to use the weak default pistol.
Silencers: While silencers can help you remain undetected, they are not necessary at all.
Camos: The camos are also useless. They are not very good at hiding you at all, even if you are in the right environment (etc. Arctic camo in a snowy background), and they makes you easier to spot if you are not in the right environment. The camos exist only for the purpose of looking cool.
Head and Face Gear: Almost all of the head and face gear is made purely for aesthetic purposes (though, ironically they are still ugly -_-). As such, the helmets do not actually protect you from headshots. The only useful head gear items are the Combat Beanie and the Military Bandana, which gives you extra speed, and even these are recommended only to people that can truly use the speed boost to its full potential.
Vests: The vests are useful in my opinion, especially the Light Vest, but for most people they really don't make a difference.
Supply Cases/HiSec Keys: These give you access to good weapons, but for the most part they are not worth it, so you should not be buying these unless you have a lot of GP.
Play in certain servers
There are certain servers that offers more GP and EXP that others. For most people it is recommended that you play in Echo, you only need to be Sergeant to play there and the players there aren't that much better than the ones in Alpha Server. You can play in the Echo server until you reach a rank of Second Lieutenant, which is far far away from Sergeant. If you have a kdr of 1.2 and higher, then you can also play in Delta Server, which offers even more GP. However the Delta server is empty most of the time, and the few people that do stay in there are very competent players. Once you have reached the rank of Command Sergeant Major, you can join the Kilo Server, which like the Delta Server offers more GP and EXP than Echo, but is also really empty and have really competent players.
The Golden Strategy: Make a schedule
This is the golden strategy of saving money. This is for people who have a regular playing schedule, and buy weapons for 1 day. Make a schedule for 2 days, and start playing later on the first day than the second day. Say if you play for 2 hours a day, and you usually play at around 8 PM, then for the first day of your schedule, start at 9 PM and buy the weapons and gears you want. On the next day you start at 7 PM, and play until your weapons expires. This way you are using weapons for 2 days at the price of 1 day. It is the most efficient strategy of gaining money, and your GP will boom up sky high real fast.
Hopefully this helps you in Saving money and having your gaming experience out!
