Why the gold box dropps only in popular maps like Silence,Polygon?

[Buggati_The_Best 1,233]

i mean it rarely dropps on Combe,Sandbox,Kungur on less popular maps

Why??

They should make gold dropp more often in unpopular maps too atract more players...

[Ilia.ArchangeI 6,785]

That observation is false.

 

Gold falls equally everywhere, because its drop is random. The only reason it may seem that way is because Polygon and Silence are among the most popular maps.

I know it's random and all, but I play combe pretty commonly and have never seen one fall there. But I constantly see them falling on Polygon, Silence, Silence II, Moon Silence, etc.

Even though it's technically random, I think it's very much affected by the amount of players and the amount of activity.

 

If it was perfectly random, you could create a private battle, sit in it, and wait for gold to come. Won't happen.

 

I think that it only appears to come more often in poplar maps, because on average people spend more time there.

 

I play mostly in Iran, and it seems like the gold falls every 15 minutes or so.

 

I've seen quite a few gold boxes in Combe.

Exactly,very rare in combe,i mean gold dropps only where are many players and that is unfair -_-

At  sandbox dropp sometimes but no so often like in Polygon or Silence(main drugging maps)

The chance for a gold box to fall is 1/7000 every time the fund rises by one, this means that in popular maps where the fund rises faster, even though the chance isn't technically larger, there are more chances for the gold to fall due to the fund rising more. This means that in drug wars where the fund rises very quickly, there are many more chances for a gold to fall than, for example, an ns-battle in sandbox.

In Combe, the room-limit is only, what 4 people on each side? Thus making the kills very slow, and the fund to rise not quite as rapid.

 

Meanwhile, in Silence and Polygon there can be up to 16-20 players. That is 2x more than Combe, thus making the fund rise more rapidly. And with drugs, that's an even faster fund.

Seriously, that question would suit his comment if he had posted a pic of a map and you said What map is that?

I haven't seen very many Gold Boxes, and most of them were in Moon Silence. But that's not to say that Gold Boxes are rare to other maps. 

It could be that it falls where more people are more often, I don't know. But I do know for sure that they do fall in other maps.

[RiseOfCucumber 651]

sometime Gold Box can drop even at 3 funds . So that is why it hard for you to find or get the gold box .

[husto 474]

it really drops randomly, of course it drops more in bigger maps.
