What is not logical is the fact the warheads come fast and furious until you get 8 or 9...then seemingly become extinct.Quote:

My point exactly, it's rigged. 54 attempts after finding the 8th warhead with no luck. Before that 5 was my longest dry spell. Same as the last event. I am through with the events and don't even feel like looking at the game now. I don't like teasers - no matter who is doing them or what the result is.
I finished with 8 got 4 heavy artillery 7 military police Truck and 3 defensive cannon
All the events so far I ended up 9 out of 10..... I'm disappointed. Cant believe that I haven't even got the top prize even once... There are some definite flaws on these events..... I will not use gold on any of these events in the future until they fix the issues at hand. Better off buying crates with the gold. At least you will get something in return that is useable.
I hv to agree with u on this. I think they need to improve the odds. Every single event, people r getting depressed n angry. They felt cheated by funzio. It will serve them better if they increase the chance lil bit higher. I seriously dont understand the logic why they made it soooo damn hard tht it is almost impposible fr certain player to get it.Quote:

I understand tht this is a chance event n i accept tht u got to hv luck on ur side to get all 10 (gold or no gold doesnt matter). But why does the odds hv to be extremely low??? Stingy much???
Well here is my final tally:
108 attempts
65 Sorry (Worst run 5 in a row)
43 Successful
8 x Nuclear Warheads
6 x $1.25m
6 x $250k
2 x Sqadron Leader
6 x Riot Buster
5 x Drone Tank
6 x Armed Lookout
5 x 500 Valor
All told not bad but now 4th event without reaching 10 - getting a bit tired of this!
Good closing questions.Quote:

There wouldn't any harm doing that if this lockbox-events really is random and not something else.. If you pay real money you really should get to know how big of chance there is you can win something.Quote:

Wow. That suggest that the odds are solely on the event day and not diminishing by nuke count per individual player, as has been suggest. The strategy would be to spend heavy the first two days on resets and lock up the prize early. Counter intuitive to do with days remaining.Quote:

Still despite my jersey shore moment, the point has been made.
Last two opens with bare hands have netted me a riot buster, and 500 valor. Damn, I really don't care that I've missed the ninth item twice in a row now!
JP - sent PM.
How have you fared in the other promos?
Hello my forum peeps.
So I'm typing this up from my phone so please excuse any typos from my fat thumbs. I can't wait to go back and read some of the comments that everyone has made since the event ended. I have so many thoughts and emotions on this but I can't collect them all into any kind of clear and concise format. Bottom line is this, im really frustrated. And I'm not sure who to be upset with, funzio for making the odds nearly impossible to reach the final goals or me for falling for it each and every time.
I put so much damn time and effort into this event this time. I hit the boxes just about every hour regardless of what I was doing. I made significantly more attemps in this event than probably the three previous events combined. And yet, I still ended up with 8 nukes, about a dozen useless loot items some money maybe a half a million and maybe 900 valor. None of those prizes was worth me leveling up 6 times, losing sleep, stressing out, cussin out my innocent phone because it wont give me a god damn nuke. My wife thinks I'm absolutely insane because my alarm on my phone litter ally goes off every damn hour. I even got closer than I ever thought I would be to buy gold and then thankfully I read posts about people using thousands of good bars to open the crates and they still weren't at 10 and I was like, what's the damn point then. If they aren't getting them then I'm certainly not wasting my money on gold.
I don't know, I'm just at a loss that this is 4 straight events that I've been unable to attain the top prize and that just seems rediculous to me. People like me who are avid players, should have a good chance of getting to 10 nukes or plane parts or whatever part it will be next, if for no other reason than I play this game all damn day long. I'm always on this thing. Updating building, expanding, buying units, collecting money, doing missions, raiding allies, PARTICIPATING in stupid events and I am now sick and tired of the BS.
I am now reverting back to my previous strategy. Camp, level slow, build economy and celebrate those goals and milestones (like the fact I broke $300K hr income and built my first Nano) and ignore all future events and promotions from funzio. I was really close to investing in gold for the event, the crates and to add some money buildings to my bases in support of the game. But now, I'd rather waste my money on just about anything else, but tonight the money I was going to spend on good, is going to be spent on a fresh new bottle of Jack Daniels.
Congrats to everyone who succeeded in this event and good luck to those participating in upcoming events, I for one, won't be joining you.
Oh and a very special thank you to my girl Kitty for your wonderful and amazing gift on my birthday. I didn't get the chance to respond but I thought it was AWESOME that you sent me two nukes for my birthday haha
Another 8 for me too pal. Sick of not even getting to 9 ... gonna put my MW guy in turtle mode in protest :(Quote:
