View Full Version : Tries for #10



Mcdoc
06-25-2012, 11:14 PM
Using McDoc's Method, I got 9 spy glasses in 10 minutes with 13 opens.

Last event I got 9 in 3 hours and did not get the 10th after over 100 Opens. I'd say THAT is DEFINITELY less than 0%.

NOW Lets SEE what the Odds are on #10 for THIS event!

6/25 11pm PST
1) Ghost hound
2) Armored Charger
3) 500 Valor
4) Armored Charger
5) $250k
6) $250k
7) Dragon Soldier

11:42pm PST
8) Defensive Cannon
9) Dragon Soldier
10) Ghost Hound
11) Ghost Hound
12) $1.250 Mill (Helped Take my Stealth Drone from 180 to 200)

11:48pm PST
13) HOLY SPIT! # 10! That's AWESOME!

DONE in 40 minutes with 26 tries!

I'll be keeping an eye on this one, good luck McDoc! Hope you get it this time

Mcdoc

Just to Document :)

And by the way, for a #9 Prize, these stats SUCK! Anything less than 100 attack doesn't even show up in my Top 100 :/

You think this bonus is worth the gold Mcdoc?

Probably not, but he for sure want to continue getting the top prize during events
It is a challenge for him now, lol
I guess that is what happens when you have too much gold and do not know what to do with it, lol

Mcdoc, how do you get so many boxes to do resets? Buy energy?

2600 gold, at 9. And I accumulated $21m along the way. Kinda annoyed, done using gold for resets.

50% extra in raids is a brilliant bonus for me!

War Priest

Doc, do you still buy LE's or crates?

Mcdoc
06-26-2012, 01:32 AM
Doc, do you still buy LE's or crates?

I usually buy High end Air LE's or if there is one that is just really cool. Kinda over Helicopters, want more JETS!

If there is a GOOD Air Unit, I will go for the crates, but this latest bunch of Repeat crates are kinda lame. Got em all already.

Still on 9 and ran out of gold, spent 2,315 for 9. :( 2 boxes, oh btw, you are correct WP, reset energy on naval dropping boxes 2/3.. Managed to get 30m cash through opens as well as 9.

GRW
06-26-2012, 02:37 AM
Well done mcdoc..I have it also using pretty much the strategy outlined by you...spent a bit more gold, did time resets with gold. As I said on the other thread don't get excited...tried it out...same cash from raids...guess we are gonna have to wait till the event ends to see if there is any REAL bonus or just another HIDDEN bonus...Still get 1 valour on raids from the last useless trinket...here's hoping!!!

If you can get the item as fast as McDoc gets it, with as little gold as he used to get it that fast, the gold is worth it.

10th unit has the stats of something worth like 975 gold. 9th item usually worth around 150. Other 3 add up to be another 150 or so.

So he's right on the dot for being worth it gold to units. But he also got some loot (dunno if they're any use to him, they arent to me) some valor and a good chunk of cash. Plus the unique bonus, which will at some point start working.

06-26-2012, 11:38 AM
It isn't working with giving 50% extra on raids, that's for sure.

With Russia as flag it is now my top unit so I am not that confident the 30% attack bonus for ground units is actually active or not either.....

McDoc so what you are saying is that spending $2,500-4,000 per year on events you get all the items. Sorry bro, most of us can't afford that so your method is bogus for the majority of players in the game. More power to ya, but $50-100 for weekly to bi-weekly events it too rich for my blood, I've better use for that money outside this game. I don't have the deep pockets. I thought I did once but it was just a hole in my pocket. LOL

Your method does show one thing of value though, your odds typically of opening crates for items are better in the first 24-48 hours. So if you are doing it not using gold, but sleepless nights, you are better of doing that at the beginning than the end it seems. This time around I've got 6 fails of 6 medium tries. Normally the first 2-3 are always items instead of fails or loot drops. Not sure if other free players are having bad luck thus far, but not looking good for me thus far.

havent been able to open my first crate. 7 sorry's in a row. in every event until now, the first box always opened on the first try and gave me a part.

i'm starting to think everyone using mcdocs method is nerfing drop rates for free players

8th fail in a row for me now. So I'll blame McDoc, sounds good to me. LOL

Manbeast let me know in a PM what you get for your next few tries. I will be funny if we match exactly up to a point even in drops and loots. It should be randon, but this is the longest I've gone in the beginning of any event I have record of. Noraml average for me is 2-3 within the first 8 tries. Only ever got on 1 in 8 and that was the 1st briefcase event.

We are not feeling the love bro.

06-26-2012, 01:36 PM
In the first 4-5 events, I always got an item in the first attempt, but in the last 4-5 (including this one) I haven't. Roughly since I won a 10th item. I doubt that makes a difference, just interesting coincidence. I'd guess the odds are near 50%. Have 2 items, another @%$@ supply frigate, and 7 or 8 sorrys.

ETA: should have said something sooner, my next 2 opens have been items. :)

James_mac
06-26-2012, 02:07 PM
iv had 7 parts so far out of 10 attempts, all the rest have been sorrys, and all have been with cash opens which is 33,000 at my current level. my best start to an event yet! shame im going away tomorrow and wont be able to see the event through

Tchhhh Another arguer I share my opinion on how he bought the unit with gold is my opinion and you guys like to bash me for it ahhhh Im not talking about taxes and It clearly says word for word people spend $1000 on a virtual unit but I don't care really its there money I'm not spending it I m not questioning anyone's decision just calm down and learn reading comprehension

Flan you need to learn to shut your mouth and really think if is something you really should say. You want to thread crap all the time and you wonder why so many are tired of your dumb **** high school games. I would buy gold to have them give you the ban hammer. That would be a worthy investment.

bigflan
06-26-2012, 08:39 PM
Anyone else who cares to bash the flan

I'm not question his ways I'm just saying no suprise and how he bought the unit you can buy the unit with 3000+ gold and he got earlier than expected and they spend 1000 to get it cause they feel like it Im not one of those people I wear $5 clothes I carry around a $1000 iPad which I over protect I like to waist my money on gizmos I have spent as much as mcdoc has spent on events on games I have shelves of games I don't like buying gold and have been tempted but will hold out for call of duty black ops 2

And yes I recently bought my new game asphalt 7 it's 99 cents which was a steal so I grabbed it so I could not buy gold

I have ocarina of time rated best game ever beat it 3 times yay

Bigflan loves his games I have so much games Its ridiculous I have 3 DS and wii and Xbox 360, Nintendo 64 , sega , gameboy original, and I have more

Hey I have mad Skillz at these games I play I'm not even sure how I got some of them some of them I don't play until 1 year later after purchase hahahhahahahahaha

Hey Flan - thanks for keeping my thread alive - uhhhh - u think :)

Anyway, my offer still stands - make that pic I posted as your Avatar and I'll give you I-tunes cards. I looked last night at Walmart - they don't have $20 cards - but they got $25 - so I would sweeten the deal to $25 now & $25 in 30 days. Someone Else even offered to add $20 - so that would be $70 of Gold for you. I bet if I (as in ME - NOT YOU) put it out there - perhaps I could get a few more takers and we could get you all the way up to $100 so you cold have 1500 Gold for to save for the event that had the best prize boost for your style of play or that's a lot of Crates :).

Just saying - that's a lot of FREE gold just to Sport a freakin Avatar. You never know - it might even grow on you and be something you would want to keep forever :)

In fact: I think the fastest way to repell Flan from a thread is to post this pic.

If he was smart, he would embrace it, own it, and own some serious Gold :)

So let the bidding begin: I originally put an offer of $20 I-Tune card now and $20 in 30 days if he keep this as his avatar. I'm now upping my offer to $25 now & $25 later. Someone else also offered $20 - I'll go see who that was.

This is like Shark Tank. There is an offer on the table - $70 in I-Tunes cards. I need a few more people to Chip in to sweeten the deal :)

Okay, I removed it. I do not want to spoil the fun until Flan declines and I become next in line to get the cards. Maybe only a $10 card as I do not have the recognition of Flan?

Okay, if you really want Flan to use that as his avatar, find someone with photoshopping skills and photoshop that kids face onto "a turret operator". That should motivate Flan to use it! Feel free to make a better one. 1398
