Mav, the rate at which boxes open isn't suppose to change, but it does. That is my point.

That is just your opinion and how you want the game/event to work unfortunately. It isn't how the devs designed it and and they did state the decreasing odds up front, but again there definitely needs to be better in-game communication of this.

Not to make you angry, everyone has the right to their own opinion. If anyone should be angry, it should be me since I have yet to score the 10th item in all 3 events. LOL I've seen some who have them all, some who said they never spent gold, some who got them by the 3rd day not even using gold. (or at least they claimed) So it appears it is possible to get them but I have the same luck as I do in winning the lottery. You know I had 8 with like 5 days to go in the event and still made it only 9 the last day and I opened 2-3 times the number of boxes of some who did get it. Random.

I wish you the best of luck next time though buddy!!!

[War Priest]

Mav, no. The drop rate in which the goal item drops is what decreases. The open rate for the box isn't suppose to change. That is not an opinion...

Let me make it more clear. On the first day, everybody manages to open almost every box, come the middle and towards the last days, hardly any boxes open. That rate is NOT suppose to change, just the drop rate is. No opinion involved here.

Boomer has stated like you posted the DROP rate decreases. The buttons in which you open a box doesn't change from High Chance to Medium Chance, to Low Change. It all remains Medium Chance, yet clearly it isn't really a "medium" chance.

[Maverick50727]

OK, you may be speaking from your own experience again and not the average. I use the Medium chance always and my open rate varies from day to day and appears random. I didn't necessarily do any better on the start of events and actually had better open rates soemtimes on the last day. I guess I'm not everybody, I record notes as I open on my phone. Here was what I got the last 3 events. You can see in the briefcase event I started off with more fails than anything else with 1 doc. The cargo box was 50/50 open for me and had 4 parts. These are just my results, you and others may have been totally different. Not sure if you kept records.

I really like the events but would like them less frequently. I burn too much of my time on the events which I know is my choice but the whole concept of the events is very enticing. I wish I did not like this game so much...LOL...my wife is ready to have me committed.

[L Fizzle]

Wow...healthy nice discussion. Thanks guys.

[Procyon]

Outside of all of the other comments and my opinions about this and the other events, I do agree with SWAG; three events in about a month is too much. I enjoy them but one event/4-6 weeks is enough. And yeh, I know this would cut down on the profit spikes that Funzio sees.

@Mav:
I guess it might depend on what level you're at but I am floored that you have never gotten a grunt. Congrats on that!!!

[spectra]

Got to 9 again. At least I'll get the special prize L Fizzle mentioned

Didn't buy any gold.

There is no special prize
I wrote to Funzio and they replied stating that there was a 'misscommunication' and there was never intent to give a proze for 9 parts

[sheffman]

I have to say that I'm happy for the events to stay as they are. The first event I was stuck on 9 and spent a lot of gold trying to get the last.............never did and was gutted!!
Then decided not to spend any more gold on events and managed to get 10 on second event spending no gold!!
Did exactly the same on the third event and got 10 with 2 days to spare.

I do not believe that you should have a better chance just because you spend money........thats your choice just like it was mine.

[Luke7676]

I like these events. And the timing of them is fine with me because it gives us more to do in game and on the forums. Granted they may need to be tweaked a bit, but I was happy with the cargo box event. Made it to 9 parts fairly fast and had a good chance at number 10. I can't complain. I really do appreciate the free loot funzio and the indestructible units although I was a bit bummed out over no bonus at 9 that was stated in the begaining. But all in all I enjoyed it. Keep them coming I say.

[Corporal Denney]

I won't be doing any events the next time they roll around. Too much time wasted on a carrot they dangled in front of us without telling us there is only a 1 in 1000000 chance of getting it, especially after you get the first 9 soooo easily. There are better ways to get frustrated.

[Maverick50727]

Wow...healthy nice discussion. Thanks guys.

You have a fun job, you get to sit back and get other watch others go at it . LOL. I consider WP a true ally in the game and we still go rounds at times. Wonderful thing about the forum is that you can voice your opinions (within reason/guidelines). Opinions are great things because yours can never be wrong as long as you believe it is true yourself.

[enahs1]

I want the 9th prize. I bet gold spenders are very mad because they paid to get to 9 and 10 but received no prize for #9

@Mav:

I hope it is a level thing as the people I noticed saying they got a grunt was much lower than me. Now I would be more mad a getting a grunt than not getting the 10th item. LOL I went to great efforts in the recent past to reduce my ally counts wisely and I am adding them back in a controlled manner to see how things are affected.

[War Priest]

I can't believe 11 people like the event the way it is...
