I think the stick is too long. The carrot dangling only works if players feel they have a valid chance of obtaining the prize. Curious how others feel about this new event.

Maybe I'm just biased towards something new since I have terrible luck xD

25 works for me. more tiers, more expectations, more variety. am i going to get the 25 pies? no. i might get the 15 though and the unit is not shabby at all.


as i see it- this event is tailored to accommodate beginners as well as big spenders

But before they had a big spenders event followed by one we could all do. They need to cater for the majority of the player base not just the ones stupid enough to spend a few thousand dollars on a 100k unit. The 10 case event did that and they killed it.

It was once a game where gold players ruled over free players, but the collect 10 still gave free players a chance to get them all for the end unit and was based on how many the free player tried to open. If you set a alarm for every hour through the night, you greatly increased your chances and the end unit was actually obtainable though this method. Now it is all gone. On a collect 25, a free player gets to about 8-14, and on rare occasions into the 15-18 realm. At least the majority. Now it seems it takes 10k gold to get this many. Even adding to this is the very large quantity needed for the secondary prizes. Free play cannot keep up this, nor using tapjoy will get you where you need to be to stay competitive. I could say attaining 200 unopened cases is a possibility, but the jump to the next level isnt with this kinda drop rate.

I prefer the collect 10 events. Maybe I am just oldschool, but I have always had better luck with those, rather than the 25. I have yet to win a 25, and I've won the 10 3 times.

If every event was easy/cheap there would be no point in having them because EVERYONE would have the same units. Then there would be no way to elevate your stats over other players.

True. But there is nothing like getting that 10th part or piece of whatever to just make you feel accomplished once and a while :)

The collect 25 does offer a slightly higher chance of opening a package with a part/piece of the item you are looking for. Just requires more time, and more opens..

collect 10 is easier, but i wish they would put out a FvF though

Have both run during buildup to war, say collect 10 during 1st 2 weeks and collect 25 during last two weeks, that way you appease both groups, personally I prefer collect 10 cause I do better on them.

I have gotten both, but lately the 25 ones are much harder to get and I dont really bother with them. Usually have 100+ opening tries during the event of 10 and 25
