Another month, another big update. This time we are taking look at what’s coming to Modern Warships in July. The focus of this update is definitely the market function, although there are some other neat new additions. Let\u2019s start with the undoubtedly most important one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The free market<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In addition to the existing item shop and the premium shop, there’s now a new place where can buy items, called the free market<\/strong>, sometimes also known as the flea market<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, let\u2019s start off with the new currency you\u2019re going to be using to buy stuff from other people. It\u2019s called \u201cArtcoin\u201d (lol art) and I kid you not it\u2019s only obtainable through selling equipment you got from the battle pass. What if you don\u2019t want to sell your items? You can also buy Artcoin for real money in the game\u2019s store. Apparently, the reason Artcoin is not grindable is to prevent the Chinese bots from hacking it and crashing the market. Yes, you read that right. It was to prevent the \u201cChinese bots\u201d from \u201chacking\u201d it and crashing the market. And these are the developer\u2019s words, not mine. <\/p>\n\n\n
