Happysedits Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 https://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Shooting_Star ''This weapon functions identically to the Machina.'' That means the strange version of this item wont be 28 keys anymore, because this thing destroy is.. Am i right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JollyLilDudeManBro Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Depends on how many of the strange ones get unboxed. But I imagine the strange machina will come down, but it might not be as bad as the caber. I bet it'll be kidna like the Kritz when you could unbox a strange one of those again. Lost ~40% of its value in keys, still pricey, but not so horrendous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Дебра Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 It's only a purple so it might actually hurt the machina's price quite a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gent♥ Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 This won't hurt the strange machina's price in the same way the common machina doesn't hurt the strange machina's price. They function the same. Great. So? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They function the same. Great. So? pick ti that way. there is strange machian for 12 keys there is strange reskin of machiea for example for 5 keys what would you buy if you wanted to make a full collection of stranges (not same on 2 different weapons stats)? normal machina doesnt count kills isnt this like with the festive huntsman that went down because of festive one?

The normal strange huntsman went down for a lot of reasons - note how everything else in that crate dropped over time too. Nobody makes full collections of stranges and ignores one, not enough to upset a market. People who want the machina will still buy the machina. Some new thing isn't going to change that, even if they function the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Дебра Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 People who want the machina will still buy the machina. Some new thing isn't going to change that, even if they function the same. People that want the machina will consider the new reskin. It's a nice reskin and people will want it. If someone buys the new reskin they won't want a strange machina too. It's simple logic.

And anyway, the only case the Shooting Star is relevant at all is if it's under-cutting the machina, in which case, you know how good stupid Outpost elitists are at keeping things artificially inflated.

Of course they are buying it for the functionality. The majority of the community give no fucks about trading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check the strange machina's market page and tell me how many big traders you see. People do buy it for usage. Not everyone with $40 is a trader, believe it or not people can earn money outside of TF2 and casually spend what they want on the market to buy cosmetics/stranges they want.

t0night Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 The majority of the community that have 12 keys to blow give plenty of fucks about trading. Obviously. that's not necessarily true. there are many ways to have 12 keys without trading. obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gent♥ Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Well, we'll see, won't we. I like to think I have an understanding of item value after nearly 2,000 suggestions, but we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
