this is starting to really make me mad, i have be stuck on needing 1 last brick for 2 days, opening a case every hour with gold, while about 3 people in syndicate opend with cash and recieved their 10th brick in the first day and one yesterday. something needs to be done to fix this. i have used about 1100 gold on this so far and i should have my item by now,

your not stuck

i believe the drop rate of the final item is 2%
that does not mean you will be gauranteed to open it within 50 attempts
it is a 2% chance each time you hit that button

reticlover man...i have 9bricks from first day only with money! i m a very active player...but from first day nothing..and from second day i make for Fum Ventilator 7/8 weapons..i think for me is possible if i don't use gold they don't give me that 2 last big weapons...i don't use gold , i'm not a gold user..i see some people who win both weapons only with money open lockboxes.

either you guys who finished it the first day with cash or reached 9/10 are really lucky with cash openings or your a bunch of liars. and to thoose who havent finished it yet and are complaining, its three days left on the event, come on give it a break. im on 8/10 6/8 with only cash and just missed a few hours opening. i think thats fair enough with three days left. stop whining and get some fukking back bone! Lmfao

i used gold every time i opend a case from start till yesterday morning at 5am. been using cash sense, and everal times i used gold to rest timer and opend 4 back to back to try and get the last brick. do u need a screen shot to prove that i only need 1 more?

I used 2500 gold total and I have 9/10 and 8/8. Just unlucky.

i believe you. but why are you in a hurry, its 74 hours left to find that last brick without gold. i havent used a goldbar yet and are at the same point as you almost. you will get there with patience!

i think the first case event that also had the items on side too i was in similar position with 1 left after the first day, used cash opens for 3 days and then gold with 5 minutes to go, got it first go with gold rather annoyingly!
but as been said before every time you hit that button its only a 2% chance of opening regardless of how many times you have done it with no reward. its like flipping a coin, you could flip a coin 99 times and get heads, the 100th flip still has 50% chance of being another head. in this scenario though you only have 2% so even less chance everytime

i know, its just very anoying watching members in my syndicate that are getting it one after another and and they havent been stuck on 9 for 2 days. so far 3 have gotten it today that just got on 9 today. and i set timers to open every hour. guess i need to wait longer

Please stop crying about math. It's embarrassing. You're a member of SAS man, you should be used to not getting the top prize by now.😎

I was on 9/10 for well over 1 day and had to open 20+ to get the 10th. Just keep going and you will probably get it. This have been the easies case event by far for me and ppl in my syndicate.

I totally know you pain. I've been stuck on 9 since the first day on both of my accounts... Probably just going to cut my loses gold wise and stop. A 2% drop rate is ****ing **** too.

Pig Farmers
01-18-2014, 03:22 PM
Well
Consider yourselves lucky. Up
Until this point I usually get all 10 opening no more then 20 cases with gold on the first day of the event until now... Been stuck on 9 since the first day

In the same boat used over 600 gold and still on 9.. But hopeful one day Gree will get it right..

So do they have a special algorithm to figure out who uses gold often and gives those players a crap code cause they know they'll spend, spend, spend. I'm a rare gold user and spent only 45 gold and have both items now. Not bragging that I got off cheap, but it seems the fairness is in favor of free(er) players.

I got my 9th yesterday, three opens later 10. Cash only! I would not doubt that people who use gold to open are purposely denied the item so you will spend more gold.
The first case event I played, I used gold to open. Nothing! A leader of a syn I speak with made a comment that gree probably drops the open rates each day. So I tried to get as many the first day, it worked out in my benefit. Still havent received the SCAR, stuck on 8/9. Not complaining though.

8/10 Bricks...6/8 Items.. All cash opens... 1500,2500 gold? Holly balls batman, approaching 200 US Dollars to get these items lol? More money then brains I think the saying is... 3 in my syndicate have both using cash only.

im stack at 9/10 and need one item.

3 Days

(sorry and 100atk items only)


i have 101 boxes
and when i have only
47 i get more eazy open them only with money.
9.100
so im thinking that the more boxes u have the more less chances too open it.

or system makes boxes not open without gold.

tho first time im at 9/10.

Nope. Nothing changes the chances of opening a box, nothing changes the chance of getting a token from the box except for how many tokens you already have (and that is the same chances for everyone, no exceptions, nothing impacts it one way or another).

In the .plist for the lockbox event, what is the "min_energy_required" referring to?

Note- I don't try and edit, that would be dumb. Just reading

Yancool
01-20-2014, 01:49 PM
I opened 22 boxes and Got 9 within 30 min..... 2k gold spend till now to get the last One opened. Stupid me to think I would get it, last time I'm spending gold on this kind of event. Feel very much tricked I to this. Had it been a reasonable amount like 500-600 I would do it again and again, but just another example of how we the players are being fooled.

01-20-2014, 03:32 PM
i stopped using gold and only cash and opened every hour when clock ran out. and finially got it. keep trying and u should get it

I'm stuck on 9/10 and 7/8. Been using mostly cash and a bit of gold. Hoping to get both these items.

9/10 all accounts seem to open best after counting to 6 from screen.

01-20-2014, 04:34 PM
How is it that I'm one weapon away from 8/8 and have a buddy with five of the items I need and vice versa? I have multiple weapons in which he only needs 1 of. That doesn't sound so much like randomness but more like a predetermined destiny. I can understand a 2% drop rate on the final brick since its a "single" item and everybody plays for ten. So how can there be a 2% drop rate on the last random weapon without pre determining which weapon is going to be the last?

I am on 8/10 and 8/8 using cash only no gold involved. Case event is just luck I think. I dont use gold for cases at all.

01-20-2014, 07:37 PM
still 9 of 10 bricks.. wasted 500 gold, still nothing.. now using only cash and guess what.. nothing.. lol

01-20-2014, 07:56 PM
I've opened cases on the hour with gold for maybe 18 of the 24 available hours per day since this event started. I got 10/10 easily, but in the past two days (so 36 opens) all I've gotten are the same bloody 6 items from the secondary prize list. 36 frickin times and I still can't get one of the other two I need! No way is this random!

Just counted...4 bio hazards, 5 don't tase me's, 6 explosive paybacks, 6 radar lookouts, 7 bloody gattling guns, and 9 1000cc cruisers. Yet still none of the other two. Oh yeah, that's totally random -_-

01-20-2014, 08:00 PM
I have been opening cases hourly and I too am stuck on 7/8 for the past two days using a combo of gold, cash and free hits mostly gold though this for sure will be my last case event I participate in.

Nope. Nothing changes the chances of opening a box, nothing changes the chance of getting a token from the box except for how many tokens you already have (and that is the same chances for everyone, no exceptions, nothing impacts it one way or another).

CJ please change title of cash button from "Fair chance"to Unfair chance. First day, when event started it was a fair chance to get a loot. After that first day, almost all opened cases finished with information to use gold option to get a loot. Only few cases were opened with a loot. Fair chance is 50-50 and no 90-10. Therefore I think that "Unfair chance" is better name for cash option.

01-21-2014, 02:34 AM
Better change it into 'no chance' option.. lol

well I'm going to have to agree to disagree with most of you...

this is by far, the fairest Crate Event i've participated in & I've been playing since September...

These days I'm running 4 accounts & used to keep a religious note of 'how bad' I did with the 'Cash Option' Crate Openings but, after the last couple of events (where I've struggled to collect 1/2 of the special Loot Item targets) I gave up collecting stats.

However, this event is 1000 times better!

prior to yesterday morning, 3 of my 4 accounts were all stuck on 7/8 items & 9/10 bricks; with the other account lagging behind at 6/8 and a pathetic 4/10 for bricks. & I've been opening crates around 16-18 times per day...

about midday yesterday, one account picked up the elusive Golden SCAR for a full set of 8/8 and, by the time I went to bed last night, my 'lagging behind account' had caught up to be 7/8 and 9/10...

first opening today, gave outa Golden SCAR to a different account; so I have 2 with the Fuminator, from just using 'In Game' Cash...

if you've just used Gold (or majority Gold) I feel bad for you (although it's your choice to do that!) but, if you're just using In Game Cash, stop whinging!!!

I've been sh-at on for at least the last 3 crate events & never moaned once.

Ce Sera, Sera with a dose of 'what goes around, comes around!'


& yes, I do still need that Tenth Brick on all accounts; if it happens, it happens!

Have to agree on this one Zippy never ever got a end product on case events used free and cash options got the 8/8 on two accounts and 9/10 on the same accounts on my third account I have 7/8 need radar and 9/10 on bricks some one in my syn got 8/8 and two days ago and got 10/10 last night all in game cash hits

posted that for a bit of balance; good to have some back up

GREE still loads of room for improvements though!!!

I think it's safe to say it didn't pay to use gold on this one. Got to 10/10, 7/8 free and then blew 400 gold trying to get the armor...smh
