I've got pretty much 3 options.

1 Keep collecting TJ Gold and save up for something else..( BTW I already have 2 Solar Arrays LVL 7's)

2. Buy a crate Common chance(65%) of getting Strike Roadster a29/21d, Screaming Eagle a25/26d or Liberty Transport a14/38d Uncommon (25%) Panzer Artillery a72/74d, Turbo Jumpjet a62/87d or Zero Agressor a85/59d or Rare (10%) Mustang Fighter a126/119d, Desert Fox a211/195d or Tiger Submarine a145/96d

3. Buy a Patrol Cutter( Sea) MY country is UK so it gives a boost to Sea Units..BTW stats on PC is a30/34d

My mind is telling me to buy a crate since even at a common chance any unit would be equivalent to the stats or the Patrol Cutter more or less. What If I luck out and get a rare?

I don't know what do you guys think?

Go with the crate. You can't lose anything, and yet you have the chance to get a 800 gold unit.

That's what I was thinking, let's say I get the rear end of luck and get an uncommon the stats on any of those 3 units are pretty much better than any other unit I got at an indestructible rate.....but If I luck out I will probably be one happy MW player lol

Well, i just bought some Gold at CC when i started playing with a new Account. I purchased 50 Gold, and bought a single Crate then. I got the strongest Item then ( Hind Gunship A 239 / D 179. I was lucky, but u might try it too.

Go for the crate everytime - Fortune favours the bold!

I popped open a few crates didn't get any rares this time (got 4 uncommon) but before that on my only other attempts I have ended up with 3 rares - 1 is the BS Heli with the worst stats ever, when are they gonna sort that out???

Personally, if I was going to buy a crate, I'd save up for the three crate pack because I'm a cheapskate and that 5 gold savings can go to something else. I'd also try to wait till they had another special where the crates had a boosted high end item percentage like the last one.

I've resisted buying them because I prefer to save up for bigger items that will give me a guaranteed outcome. Not bold, but disciplined and determined to achieve specific objectives. Both ways have their merits and draw backs. I always flip coins if I can't decide things like this, and commit myself to the results of the toss.

I agree with Warfiend. Save up for 2 but definately go for the crates. At least you have a chance for something bigger.

I've had some bad luck with crates so far (4/4 common), so I personally would go for something you know you need.

Deffinetly go with the crate. That's your best bet. I'll be buying another one later today.

Haha yeah... Unfurtunetly. Did a few bigger offers from tapjoy in the 20's range but nothing ever came through. I did report to them though...

Edit: just got a common from the crate but I am happy with it. Still worth 50g

No s***! Lucky! I would love to get that Desert Fox! I guess it's time to get another triple crate before they're gone...Seqwins! Look at the opportunity with a crate! Go for it man!

I decided to keep my gold and keep putting gold together for other gold buildings and actually found a good strategy for gold that I want to share.

Btw when I posted this thread I was sitting at 49 gold and as I'm typing a couple of days later I sit at 92.

Now this little thing I've found might seem like a pain to some of you but to a free player like me with bills and responsibilities any free gold is welcomed. On the earn free gold tab in the add funds option everybody who has tapjoy should see a "earn 1 gold in MW" link well I wondered how much I could collect from this link and it regenerates exactly every one hour.

I know most of you don't log in hourly as I don't either but this weekend I decided to try this and well I earned 53 gold from doing it and a couple of tj apps I dled.

Who cares about reliability? It's free! And you don't need to share I already did, I'm not greedy.

2% lower casualty on top of that dude, If I was into crates, I'd pray for three for three on the three packs.

This is my new gold strategy, I love it. Everytime I'm done with the game, I just check out through that button and get a gold to boot. Used to be able to hit the tapjoy button multiple times as well, guess they caught on to that one.

Is it just me or do you think that hold money buildings are not a good gold investment

Did you mean gold money buildings? And if yes why are they not a good investment?Becasue gold= power and if your paying power for a lesser currency than it does not make sense you will never get your gold back you just get cash which Is the lowest type of currency the order is ingame cash, valor and gold why it's dumb the only good gold building are the composite factory I would buy a crate good permanent investment which gives a lasting effect while cash if you buy units they die and there not as good as gold I understand buying them for the building missions but not a good investment argue with me I'm sure there are people who disagree with me and those who do agree with me

I have to say flan, that was one well thought out post.

My counter to that is this-with 250 gold I can buy 5 crates and get five indestructable units, which I'll admit give outstanding return. However, with a level 10 geothermal plant, I can buy nearly 2 Stealth Bombers a day. Even if I lose them here and there, my attack would still grow and grow, and eventually surpass the attack values of those five units from crates. Now, add in the fact that I get a 10% air bonus for my country, and a 20% boost from the hangar and my 2 SBs go from adding 100 a day in attack to 130 a day. Crates are all over the place, and ya might end up with some dang explorer subs giving ya defense you don't need on a unit that doesn't match your flag. Going with the geothermal plant here, but ain't knocking crates.

I understand your point but the cost of getting a lv10 geo plant is ridiculous and hard

Everything pays off in the long run. Put a few million toward an upgrade, or lose a few million to rivals who you can't fend off.

True, and I was gonna point this out. In the very long haul though, I think both options are viable, can't kill an income stream and can't kill gold units. Collection would also going to be tough...but if I'm up that high, I'm assuming I can defend those buildings.
