Crates

[Huckleberry658]

O for seven on the new crate crap. What's the point? Thought maybe it was a reward the way it's presented for loyalty, it's really a money grab by trying to force players to spend money by making the odds of success so slim it's not even worth participating in.

[IlliniFan1]

Same. I've received four atom bombs out of 25-30 tries. It is now nearly impossible to get a good amount of atom bombs using cash opens.

[General Soviet]

The thing is, it's all luck. The chances of getting the tenth bomb with cash is VERY slim. The medium chance to open it, then a 2% chance of getting the bomb. Though I've gotten the grand prize with cash before, I doubt it'll happen again.

I'm currently on #6. My last open got me 1 concrete. I wasn't too happy how I spent $134,000 cash to get an item I could've received by raiding some guy. Seems they've made a prize worse than the grunts and defensive cannons...

[Ryans67]

Bet you'd really be pissed if you spent 15 gold and got concrete. Lol. Happened to me 3xs in a row.

[LeBarticus]

Yeah I would like to protest the 1 concrete prize from event boxes. I have never gotten one but that seems ridiculous. Why not 10? At least

[marebear]

I can beat you. I have tried to open boxes all day and I have gotten zero open with the cash option. Zero!

[Ph4ntom Stranger]

I can beat you. I have tried to open boxes all day and I have gotten zero open with the cash option. Zero!

That plain stinks. That's how it is for me in CC all the time.

I started this event out 1 for 10 attempts at cash opens, but luckily the cash open rate has increased to normal and have gotten 5 parts now.

[VileDoom]

Be happy you're getting crates, I've lost 8 so far from whatever bug is preventing them from adding to your stack.

[marebear]

Still on zero... This event sucks, for Me! Lol.

[BigD@wg]

Still on zero... This event sucks, for Me! Lol.

It amazes me how the dice get rolled in this event for each player. Zero?!? That is crazy! My LLP started yesterday morning and out of 11 cash opens, I have 7 bombs. No gold, just cash and only 11 total attempts. Plain crazy!

[marebear]

Still at zero, tried a free open to change it up. Sent a ticket now. Ridiculous.

[LeBarticus]

Sorry mare that's messed up! I just got my first concrete.... >_<

[VileDoom]

I sent in a ticket yesterday about the 8 crates I should have collected and still haven't heard anything. The screenshot I included with the ticket showed one of the instances where my crate counter was at -1 with 2 uncollected crates on the ground...

[qq1972]

It can be done. I got 2 in MW and CC, all cash opens. Just be patient.
I got my Draft Destroy 2 hours before the event ended and I almost gave it up LOL. But I got the First Strike Tomcat with 2 days left.
The key is to open as much as possible during the event which means you have to give up some sleeping time LOL. I woke up every hour during the event and I was doing about 20+ opens per day.
So it is very possible to get it without gold.

[Dutchie]

Now that is dedication! You deserve those units for that kind of dedication!

[SevenO9]

Even if the unit had 20k stats I would not interupt my sleep. At my age sleep is invaluable :)

[qq1972]

I am still young, I have time but no money LOL. So I use my youth to chase for wealth. Maybe sometime down the road when I have enough wealth, I will use them all to chase for youth.:p

[BigBassTurd]

Got 7 atom bombs no gold opens. If I get 9 I will be happy as I just want the indestructible units to add to my army. 10 would be nice, but I have learned not to chase the dragon and will not drop gold on it.

[qq1972]

Just got the 9th, hope I will get my 3rd grand prize with cash open only.:rolleyes:

Sounds like your cortical node needs a service :-)

D@wg, you have gotten all of mine. I have been stuck on 4 all day long and have not missed an hour. Got 3 concrete though. I only have 3 bombs left.

[FromAfar]
