Scratchers are useless and a hindrance to the game.

Either remove them from the game or upgrade the prizes to a normal level.

We're probably beyond the point of discussing this, but opinions are always appreciated.

Kind regards,

Sorry, but I'm just going to go ahead and disagree with you.

I got my 200th viking blade this morning. By my count, that puts me 40% of the way til dominance in the melee category. Not....too...shabby.

A few weeks ago, someone I know got $100m from a scratcher.

pretty much the only prize worth getting from the scratcher is the fire car thingy

Most of the prizes are worthless, just like most lotto tickets. But if you're lucky you can score something very nice.

Only thing I find useful is the 10mil & 100mil cash (never got either!)
Maybe increase the chance of getting these?
Best cash I've got is 1mil about 3x.

Well I just pulled a 5x gun scratcher this morning, so I wouldn't say they're completely useless. True, the lower prizes - especially the 1x prizes - aren't exactly flattering. Applying the bonuses on my account the 5x gun prize has stats of 624/353 so I can't really put in a complaint... They are free by the way. Last time I recall checking the definition of 'complaining about something that is free' is called greed. I think that the 1x items need to be updated, but I think that at the current rate of items being thrown at us, it would only expedite the inflation process.

@ant1greeny2 - $1m cash is 4x

These are only for the random gods (calc says 1 in 46656 for each or 0.0021%) and what do they get? A less then thousand vehicle, platform, exosuit, axe? 100 mil is nice for most, but we have plenty of people who can make this in a week and 100k respect is freaking nice to have but are you THAT happy to receive it?

Increase everything by a tenfold imho. Make it count, or get rid of it all together.

nameI agree. I like the new format from MW; log in 28 days in a row and get a prize every day, the last day being a big item with modifier. They should implement this in CC too IMO.

A few weeks ago, someone I know got $100m from a scratcher.
100 million is what I make in 5 hours. It's useless for people like me; either raise the amount to 1 billion or relate the amount to the person's IPH (i.e. 100x IPH).

pretty much the only prize worth getting from the scratcher is the fire car thingyAgreed. Does the item still have the 10% mafia attack mod?

The fire monster still has the +10% mafia attack mod. I got it about 2 weeks ago. I didn't realize what I got till I saw my stat increase.

IMO, they should do what they did in MW. Out goes the scratchers, in the daily rewards. The rewards get better each day and every 7 days you get a more powerful weapon than usual. It ends at 28 days where you get a weapon with 2K attack and defense stats. After that the cycle restarts with even more powerful weapons.

If they changed the format to the same as MW that would be great, at least you know what you're getting and weapons would be much better than getting random cash or respect prizes which are useless.

Lets face it, these have needed an update for months and there have been several threads about this. GREE even had a chance to fix this when they added MW's new feature. But as we can all see, they simply don't care about CC's scratcher system, or else they would have updated it when they updated all their other games' scratchers. So bringing it up every month won't do anything, they've shown they just ignore it.

Remember how CC got boss events first and MW later? Remember how MW got factions first and CC later? Remember how CC got scratches first and MW later?

Same thing here

A) one look at your name and I knew not to take anything you say seriously, but still somehow there's a B), since when did it take this long, with no communication? If it was going to be implemented they would have replied to one of the half dozen threads complaining about this over the past few months.

gree has a loooooooong "To Do" list guys .. give the poor hard working souls a break :D

if we were to make the list for gree, here's what they need to do:

1. Get rid of scratchers or bring new weapons (perhaps same for crates)
2. Change the job payouts and weapon drop stats in ALL maps
3. LE Gold items suck! I wonder if anyone ever buys a 400/400 weapon for 800 gold these days. You can get way better prizes by spending that much gold in LTQs/Bosses/box events
4. Introduce the boss raid event because we've been collecting the crappy guns since ages

wish to add more in the "To Do" list? please don't add "provide good customer service" because it is not a "to do" thing, you gotta live by that. no customer service, you'll have a flood of customers pooping on your head gree :D

Bro, I've been around for a long time. Much longer than you. I know exactly what I'm talking about. And from what I remember, the mods didn't say anything about when this new content was getting released except for "in the next update". Then when the update came, that's when they'd officially announce what the heck this new thing they've implemented is.

Uhm, am I missing something here? Are you complaining about a free item that you get for just logging into CC? How is that a hindrance?

It'd be much better if they were scratch and sniffs.

That'd get me more excited.

I've played before scratchers existed too, don't be thinking I'm new around here. And it's pretty obvious that updating the scratchers is not a priority for GREE.

remember when CC actually listened to us, cared, fixed their bugs, replied back to our ticket problems with real person instead of autobot, took care of our ticket issues instead of surveys on how their service was, didnt change war times at last minute, say they will give prizes then say they wont after event started, change gold bonus after people bought in, was consistent in battle match ups, and let us speak w/o fear of bannville?
