Warhead Event - Stresses and Successes

This has been the absolute worst event I have participated in so far. From the very beginning, the results have been sub par. For the first time, my first box did not open; I knew this was a bad omen. Secondly, I kept getting the same items over and over and over. Whatever I received when I used the medium option (expcept the war head), I would get the exact same thing when I reset the timer and opened with gold. This also happened repeatidly. I feel like I completely wasted my time and money on this one!!!!!

I've been using gold to open approx 8 per hour.
And needless to say still at nine.

I'm not sure I'll spend any more money on events if I do not get number 10.
I'm with WP: over 3000 gold added in the last two days. I'm down to about 1000.
But I'm in to deep to stop now!

Giggidy .... :(=

Oops this is my first time, and i'm free user.

Wish these events would stop not making me happy

Congrats to you both and everyone else who has pulled it off!

I'm still hoping to check this thread tonight and see several more successes.

Stuck on 9 since yesterday!!!! however, got a whole bunch of Heavy Artillery, Military Police trucks, valor and cash.
I want that Covert Jet Fighter and have only one box left with 5 hours and 47 minutes to go.

Just got number ten!

Good luck to the rest of you!

did you open using gold?? I tried to open twice with gold, only to have 300k, and 100 valor..gonna go with cash only for the remainder of the 5 hours left...

Got to 8 pretty easy on Thursday, only took about 40 attempts. Since then (x=Sorry): x - x - x - x - x - explosives expert - x - X - military police wagon - 300,000 - x - x - military police wagon - X - 300,000 - x - x - x - x - x - x - x - X *- x - x - x - Explosives Expert - X - x - X - x - x - 60,000 - x - x - x - x - 100 points - military police truck* - 60,000 - extra ally. - x - heavy artillery - x - x - x - x - x - x - x
That's 50 attempts. I've stopped playing on the iPhone, about ready to dump it from the iPad also. Greedy bastards at funzio should not have altered the chances once you reach a certain level. Screw them, their events and this game.

I used more than 3000 gold. The indestructible unit is a good prize but if I spent that gold on crates, that`s over 60 crates.

I accidentally reset the timer for 15 gold. dammit! Was gonna wait till the last hour to reset it once just for the hell of it.

I've been stuck on 8 for 3 days. Had a 34 hour period where i only opened 2 boxes. That seems to happen every time on the 3rd and 2nd last days. Today i have been opening boxes and a low rate, but i've been opening them which is still an improvement. No hope of getting the 10th, and chances of getting 9 are slim.

someone posted a day or so ago they got 9 and then 10 the next hour. for some reason i believe them, and i think its possible. I am leaving my app open as long as possible to get this unit. its gotta be worth a try.

Last event I reset the time at 14 seconds. Haha, that made me so mad.

too bad i don't have many boxes to open after the events over, cuz i got attacked like crazy since i re-entered this rivals list. Also too bad im not lucky at all. I tend to be 3-4 bars behind the majority of players, every event. Then when they get stuck on 9 i catch up to 8. Then i get stuck on 8 and never get any more.

Titanium bar event and secret doc event i had like 75 boxes by the end. Plane parts and nuclear warhead events i struggle to keep a few boxes and ended both with like under 5 boxes.

Hi to all, here is my experience during this event
day one
tried 20 opens costins $109k per try, and got 7 warheads, 4 of tuem in a row, I feel somewhat sorry because I fought a player for valor points and stole 3 boxes which all contained warheads.
day two
at 3 pm got warhead #8, since then it has been a very dry spell getting 90% "sorry" from my tries.
after 4 1/2 days of getting some units, 500vp and some cash that it kot even closed to the 10 milion I have spent to date I got nuke #9, with only 27 chances for part # 10 left. and again a new dry spell was upon me by 4 am on the last day, so I decided to used my well saved gold bars (980) and start getting cash, drones, vp and riot busters, finally, thank heaven!!! after blowing in the past 5 hours 680 gold bars I got part #10 and the falcon which replenished 5 energy points every minute.
I can say that this event has been the most stressful and expensive yet (it was very expensive due to my financial situation and the gold bars I purchase I try to use them wisely, this is an awesome game and every penny I use is worth it.
I am glad it is over for me with a happy ending, I do not thi k I will be this lucky in the next event since I am almost out of gold bars and do not think will be able to purchase any in a while even if I wanted.
I sincerely hope and wish all of you out there, to get part #10. since i. the end this will only benefit Funzio since every one that is not camping will lv up faster and the game will become more active.
Cheers to all and I am so glad it is finally over!!!!!!

This is my 3rd or 4th event. I can't remember which. Each time I get to 8 and never even sniff 9. This time I have set my timer to open a box every hour during the day, not setting it at night. Now I work and have a family, so realistically I could have opened 50% of the boxes during the day. I have been so into this that the past 2 nights, I have been just waking on my own several times and opening a box. I've been at 8 for about 2 days now. I would like to tell funzio I'm pi**ed and will never play again. I would like to tell you all that it's crazy to do this to yourself. But it's fun and I'm sure I will do it again. Now as I write this my alarm went off and I opened another box. Number 9 warhead. Funzio, you suck....I was just about to go to bed. Work is coming early in the morning. Y'all have fun.

Six boxes left, one hour, eight warheads found, less than 3 1/2 hours left. I'm going to bed. The chance of getting the tenth warhead are as good as the chance of me doing another event. This crap ain't fun, it's frustrating. I don't play games to be frustrated. 1-8 in 2 days, now 51 attempts and no warhead, they cranked up the odds too much at 9.

last night went to sleep and miss my 4 tries, where I should have set the alarm each hour to wake up, but maybe because I have did it for the last 3 days, I haven't got enough sleep and went to a comma last night...wake up at 4.30 in the morning, and since then opening boxes each and every hour...
tried to open with gold twice, but only got 300k and 100 valor, and didn't want to spend anymore gold...
been busy with work, but still set the alarm in 1 hour interval to open boxes each and every time...
5 minutes ago, I just got my 10th to my surprise...think I have no hope whatsoever anymore...I cliked the cash open, leave it be, and do my work again...and when I got back, I see a very beautiful picture ever...(which I have already forgotten, because the last picture of it I saw is 3 days ago)
now got 1,500 gold in my pocket, have spent 30 gold to open box, will open a few crates, are thinking to change my Iranian flag (don't know to what yet...maybe Russia, because of the 10th item), and are going for a loooooonnnggggg camping upgrading my base and economy, with little attack and raids from other player I hope since my stat have gone up a bit nicer now...
for me overall this event is a learning point...mainly learning a lot about human nature, and their inclination towards more and more and more and more...really happy at the moment though...
for all of you out there...good luck with the rest of the event!!

Did anybody make new names just to tell their feelings..? Sort of seems like it.

I remember complaining after my first few events. Now, I expect to get nine and several indestructible units and get some sleep after the event is over. :) You battle everyone else everyday in the game, these events are kind of my battle with Funzio. One of these days I will prevail. Keep them coming.......

Hard to accept defeat when the bonus is so good though.

Yes. You need to stock up on boxes now and after the event ends, keep the app open and it will still allow you to open hourly. Don't do pvp or pve to make it crash. Once the app is closed or crashes, it's all over.

My way of battling funzio is to be cheap, but they play dirty by adding the energy increse to the jet. Makes me wanna press that inApp purchase button for Gold and sometimes i do, but back down and realize i am having a brain fart when i have to input my password. Lol. Helo Vegas.

Ahh that's frustrating lol. I just spent the rest of my 148 gold on 3 crates (got a rare finally, yes.) and now I'm trying to get my tapjoy on to reset the timer, I hope the 10th warhead is in my last couple of crates!

Thanks priest

After too many sorries, Squadron Leaders, openings with Gold and event time left 1 hour 32 minutes I finally got too the 10th Warhead, phew!

I´m both happy and exhausted, and apparently you stop gaining Grunts from these events after level 81 (I bet somebody else have said this information many times before). Good still, I have 86 of those buggers already from previous events.. ;)

Thanks MaverickMunkey, but no time for that - gotta work too for a change. ;D

Funzio cheats!

During last action I pretty quickly collected 9 propellers, and had 3 more days to collect the last one. Well, it didn't work out - Funzio was not going to give me a chance. All I would get from you was trash.

This time I quickly got 8 warheads, and again had another 3 days to go. Same situation again - just trash, no warheads. Well, I purchased gold then, just to try Funzio's integrity... But it's all the same - I got about a dozen of allies, some trash, and NONE of the warheads. I spent all gold, but no warheads.

Yes, Funzio cheats. One could predict it.

Friends, I will never NEVER buy gold again. It's so disappointing.

Finally managed to get number 10 (previously 7, 8, 9 so I guess it was destined). Wish I could say it was completely free. Probably shouldn't tell the story til after the event is over, but...I had 9 nukes and 14 boxes left after missing most of yesterday and today, and I had been opening at 45 past the hour, but slipped to 3 past. Ticked me off, so I decided to use gold just once to reset and open. Bang, got it! This one is pretty good, second only to the faster build times, man I wish I had that one.

Hope we can get a couple of weeks off til the next one!

I'm on my iPad, so I don't have the actual quote, but what I said the other day is true, gold guarantees you nothing except speeding things up. It's random, and gold does not change the odds. Using gold on these events is not a recipe for success unless you have very deep pockets, and not always then.

Wow congrats Otto. I've been planning on hitting reset once as well at the end, hope I get lucky like you did!

Looks like i'm not gonna make it. Stucked at 9 fr 2 days 😖😖

Yeah I didn't make it. Reset the timer and got a grunt... :(

Ya 145 boxes last 20 opens all fails, can't buy gold, lost my boxes for 1 hours and no response from support.

No 10th part.
