I was on all cash options early on and went 4/4. I used a bit of gold and ended up with 9 only 6 hrs in. Since then i've failed to hit my tenth virus container. That was almost 2 days ago lol

[Ghost-12]

8 all medium (cash opens).
Good stuff Rud. You using the 15 minutes method? (I think is called like that) I have no luck with it or
I`m doing it wrong lol.

The 15 minutes doesnt work for me either. I try to aim for it but it doesnt work out 9 times out of 10. My 2nd account also just got its 7th container at 33 min past the hour.

[SGT Rud]

No, I just do it when the game notification pops up. I really dont have a method. LOL - Im using the "crap, its time method".

[Michael1989]

Have 7/10 using cash open. Also got 3 loads of concrete, 2 helicopters and a tiny bit of cash £125,000 i think....

Ill Probably make it to 9 out of 10 since the last one is painful and only people who spend lots of gold gets it.
Last event i used about 600 gold just for one and nothing, so ill pass on this one even-though i could REALLY
REALLY use that extra 15% infantry attack :/

Best method!

[Ghost-12]

Best method!
Indeed! LOL

[krill]

9/10 using all cash opens.. got a little antsy and used 2 gold refills... when it was in the last few seconds... :(

[Romulus.]

First day when the event started i started to hammer.. I used 1600 gold first hour and got stuck on 9.. Since then i never saw anything about virus bio, just sorry,concrete and tanks.. Thats the way how gree gets us.. To use gild again for that sh.t? NEVER!! Gree screwed me up also with the towers, i got 9 with only cash and i spent over 2k gold for just last one and never got it.. I sent ticket to gree about it because should be something wrong 2k gold after a tower.. But yeah i heard back a long story. Well good luck.

[FireCracker]

I'm stuck on 8/10.... I used over 1800 Gold last time & didn't get the Unit.... I'm not doing that again.... If I get it, great, if I done, my money is still in my account... 😀
I sent a tick the last time, I got a long email saying basically it's not a guarantee I would get the Tower.....

[Joe Bloggs]

I'm stuck on 7. Counting last event, and outside of first 28 hours of event I am 0 from 7-8 days of trying. This event is like playing the slot machines. Only Gree changes the probabilities. Using gold is a waste of time on this event, in fact it seems if you use gold it lowers the probability of you getting a reward. Have no evidence, but then there is no guidance from Gree on how this works. So would be interested on what people think impacts on the probabilities.

[Zachio]

9/10 all cash opens. 3 days left, we'll see...

[free play]

I'm on 8, all free, never bother using gold or cash, it's a lottery, i finished it before for free and had 8 last time for free, don't expect to get the 10 but you never know

[Evil Mastermind]

It's exactly like winning the lottery. What the gold open does is increase your chance of getting a bio weapon by a factor of 4 (versus cash open). So if the odds of getting the 10th bio weapon is in 1,000,000 with a cash open, it becomes 4:1,000,000 with a gold open.

Just like the lottery, at the end of the day, you'll still lose, whether you buy 1 ticket or 4.

Quite certain this is incorrect. A gold open only ensures a successful open. It does not increase the odds of obtaining the object. The only increase in odds comes from the fact that it actually opens and was not a BLNT.

BTW. On 8, all cash opens.

[Evil Mastermind]

You're right. Once the container is open, the chance of getting the object doesn't change as a result of the type of opening method used. However, if the odds of a cash open is 1 in 4, a gold open is 4 in 4. The odds of getting the object with a gold open still increases by a factor 4.

I explained like I did in my previous post to make it easy to understand.

I wasn't sure if you were accounting for the opening part or not. Didn't want anyone thinking using gold would increase odds of the object being inside ;)

[Ghost-12]

...I rather see a price tag, even if it is a hight 600,700 gold for one token (Bio or whatever).
Like this i can actually see what Im wasting money on and i now that i WILL get what i pay for!

Make the last two tokens at 600 gold each lol you GREE will still make money out of it!

[Thief]

You're right. Once the container is open, the chance of getting the object doesn't change as a result of the type of opening method used. However, if the odds of a cash open is 1 in 4, a gold open is 4 in 4. The odds of getting the object with a gold open still increases by a factor 4.

I explained like I did in my previous post to make it easy to understand.

What data do you have to support that a cash open is only 1/4?

[jaxson22]

8 with all cash openings...still 2 days left but can almost guarantee that I wont make 10 without spending gold

[Dilligaf13]

Glad to see someone is having luck with this event. As usual I'm having none at all. I opened 3 right off the bat the first day, 2 bio containers and 1 concrete. I've been mixing it up to try something different. I got the bio containers off free hits and the concrete of cash hit, go figure. This is usually a event I pass up due to this, I've never gotten more then 6.

[KFH]

on 7 cash opening so far

[erickd271]

I have opened every 2 hours since the virus event started and only got ONE CONTAINER! -.- All cash opens
Also 2 helicopters.....

[Tito89]

8/10 cash opens, also got a free vector warship armada, all 15 of them...

[Chris_]

Been on 9 since this morning. All cash opens

[Arizona]

3, 2 and zero
...but it's so exciting innit?

[ploop]

5/10 all cash opens

[La La594]

7 on llp 8 on hlp all cash no gold on this event for me, bc if you pop you cant stop, but there should be a by default if you spend x amount them you will get the unit, 5 gold if your reading gree :)

[jchow69]

I have 9/10 on LLP, been pretty lucky using cash only, will be hell getting my 10th, lol

[Spazer]

Completed (using only 100 golds and medium chance)

[Thief]

Completed (using only 100 golds and medium chance)

100/15 = how many opens?

I'm a Smart Ass... Sorry :(

Tell Biff i said hello.

[jgmecarter]

I have completeted this event 4 times with cash opens and I have never used gold on this event.

[Ghost-12]

Whats ur secret? share please lol!
only completed ONE event and that was wayyyyyyyy back when I started playing...

[sniperfou]

5/10 with free open :)

[bosco67]

Been using cash opening since the event started. Up to 8 bioweapons and opening around 17/18 per day. Several concrete and battle points (shame I have no idea how many BP I have as Android doesn't show them).

The last 7 I have opened have BLNT and I have no doubt if I open one every hour until it ends I wont get to the 10 required - have 163 virus cannisters to open before it ends..... quite a few going to waste there then.:rolleyes:

[sjekkie]

10 in a half hour 540 gold

[Thief]

10/10 With Cash Opens. Thats the soonest it has ever happened for me so i consider myself very lucky on this run.

Congrats Bro :DDDD
I just got my 8 this morning.

[jethro650]

I got 10/10 about 8 hours ago, all cash opens, no gold spent. I am the third in my faction to get it and I'm pretty sure that they didn't use gold either.

[Sgt Squirrel]

What's your secret for opening these things haha! I didn't make the plane and have my fingers crossed for this event.

[Thief]

What's your secret for opening these things haha! I didn't make the plane and have my fingers crossed for this event.

No secret...Just lucky for me.

Out of all the 10 Crate Events i've only gotten 3 of them with cash opens.

There was one from a year and a half ago that i had 9 with 5 days and 4 hours remaining and wasn't able to get 10th with over 20 open attempts per day. Sometimes your lucky and sometimes your not. Out of all the ones offered this hasn't been my prefered one honestly but beggers can't be choosers.

[SGT Rud]

A member of my faction just got 10 on cash only. That pic of a opened a stinky head, insert his head there. LOL.

[The Major Wolf]

8/10 and 7/10. no gold, but a lot of try next times lol

[krill]

Just got 10/10 all cash opens....

[Drakhoan]

Gotten 10 of 10 on this one and several others with all cash hits. Seems to just be luck. This is my favorite container event because it is all about luck rather than gold like the other that I never have a chance in hell of getting any of the good units.

[Snow Bunny]

10/10 With Cash Opens. Thats the soonest it has ever happened for me so i consider myself very lucky on this run.

Arguably a weaker unit with less desirable boost than last event, I'm curious do u think gree switches the odds depending on the reward? I know many people spent 3000+ gold last event but IMO was a better unit n I have conspiracy theory all crate events all not same odds..😚

[Perilous]

You should post levels along with when you get 10/10. My 200 level player is sitting on six with cash opens my level 50 player is on nine with half the amount of cash opens.

[MNoggle81]

9/10 for last 3 days all cash. Last one had proven impossible thus far.

[Mcdoc]

Been stuck on 9 since about an hour into the event :/

[Sgt Squirrel]

Still on 7. The gods of luck hate me this round through.

[Blade of 3]

7/10 and 9/10. Both in the second day.

[Sparkle]

Is the case event still on? My icon vanished over night and the letters are green but the Progress sign is still there. I'm at 9/10.15%Infantry Defense would make my day!

[The Pharoah]

I'm on 7/10. I've been using the medium option mostly, but the pay-out has been somewhat less than 50/50 success/failure. I expect I'll get 9/10 and no further. Before now I've piled whole vaults of gold to get that last special item, and it never made any difference how many containers I opened, I NEVER got it, even after opening dozens of containers.

[jrb22250]

got the 10th. All cash. You have to open them on different minutes of the hour. starting at 1:14 and 26 seconds GMT and adding 3 minutes and 13 second each case after. You have to face South when you do it, and only use your left thumb when pressing the button. (JK)

OK, I have seen 5 accounts all opening 14-15 a day and still only have 5-6 successful. Other guy told me he opens 4-5 a day and had unit yesterday.

It is all luck of the draw. Good Luck everyone.

[Evil Mastermind]

10th, no gold. No superstitious opens at certain times or anything crazy. Just medium cash opens. 5th collect 10 event in-a-row for FREE.

Cheers,
Evil M. ;)

[Oceanz]

2 the first day, 5 the second day, zero the 3rd day, just got #8 earlier today

[Web323]

Same as almost every event of the collect 10, 9 the first day and nothing since except for useless tanks and concrete

[Sgt Squirrel]

10th, no gold. No superstitious opens at certain times or anything crazy. Just medium cash opens. 5th collect 10 event in-a-row for FREE.

That's so....Evil.

[Captain Steelman]

10/10 on my llp and 9/10 on my main. Last event it was the other way around... And no gold...yet....

[Dilligaf13]

Glad to see someone is having luck with this event. As usual I'm having none at all. I opened 3 right off the bat the first day, 2 bio containers and 1 concrete. I've been mixing it up to try something different. I got the bio containers off free hits and the concrete of cash hit, go figure. This is usually a event I pass up due to this, I've never gotten more then 6.Still only 2 bio but with 2 concrete now, started using only cash like others and still nothing, I give up and will probably not waste my time any more on this event. Happy to see others are succeeding though.

[Stumps]

I feel better reading this, i thought i was the only one stuck on nine for the last 3 days. I refuse to use gold on this event, so all cash hits for me.

[Tournai]

stuck at 8/10 with my main
stuck at 9/10 2nd
stuck at 8/10 3th

[Zepson]

It looks a lot like they just block it on day 3 and 4, then they give none at all, opening it up in the last hour of the event.
I have never had any on day 3 and 4 when I was on 9 after day 2. But I always got the 10th in the last hour of the event. Coincedence?
Or maybe just those who are on 9/10?
I will see if I'm correct at the end of the event, my last opening will be with gold.

[Ghost-12]

...It looks like this is going to be another 9/10 for me for the 4th time!
not looking good with a few hours left.

[The Major Wolf]

8/8 on both accounts, but has been that way for several days...grrr

[Mcdoc]

Finally got number 10! Got 9 in the first 2 hours - got #10 in the last 2 hours - about 1500 gold JUST for #10 :/


10th, no gold. No superstitious opens at certain times or anything crazy. Just medium cash opens. 5th collect 10 event in-a-row for FREE.

Cheers,
Evil M. ;)

In the words of Flan: "jelly"

[Ghost-12]

240 gold and :/ just... :(

[Roscoe782]

yup, ended with 9, first time I haven't won since Egypt. Sad. I got 9 on Sunday, so I figured 10 should be close to a lock considering my history. Nope. 4 days of absolutely nothing with hourly openings. Pushed some gold the last few hours, but only a few hundred. Should have known better anyway.

[Lt chromica]

Got # 10 with 15 seconds to go....gambled and used gold to open it

[Thief]

FYI: Overtime has been removed from the game.

[Kimm]

10/10 with My main. Was also stuck for 3 days.. last hour gold resets and opening, spend 120 gold and there was number 10!
9/10 with mini. Was out of containers last hour, raided , attacked, did missions everything to get another one. They just didn't gave them away anymore. -_-

[Kimm]

I have never got to ten with cash hits only. Twice I made the 10, including this one. Both had to spend gold last hour to obtain them. This time only 120, last time 500-600. A few months ago. The times in between, even with gold no number 10

[KFH]

8/10 was stuck on 8 for 3 days thought i would have gotten 9 :(

[Michael1989]

8/10 for me. The most i ever got with all cash opens. Got alot of random units from it but the best prize was the 250 valour!

[MajikUF]

Sounds like my exact story. I have a ton of concrete, a bunch of those stupid helos and boats, about 5000 valor, and maybe $20m but no friggin 10th item. Sunday morning! boo

[Mcdoc]

8/10 for me. The most i ever got with all cash opens. Got alot of random units from it but the best prize was the 250 valour!I disagree - the BEST prize is 10x Concrete :). I just couldn't get enough of those :)

[CroftyB]

I disagree - the BEST prize is 10x Concrete :). I just couldn't get enough of those :)

Oh they are my favourite Doc (n.b this is said in an extremely sarcastic tone) ....must be so bad for peeps not in a faction or those who don't use walls :D
