Well, I came back to Discord briefly to say hello because I was bored. I came to the forum because I posted an AWS article (and also because of three other secretive reasons). Finally I cam back to the game to buy Plasma Torch because when I left it was locked to me because of ranks, but now I can buy any alt if I have enough crystals. I did, so I bought it, used it for roughly 20 minutes, and then left again

And you came to TO for a gold rain that I caught, like, 40% of the golds in lol

You got free stuff yet you're complaining. I am amazed at your tenacity to complain about each update.

i'm complaining because other players are getting better things that I do. It's like receiving a Christmas gift from your parents and then finding out your siblings get much cooler stuff than you get.

Just opened 14 containers on my mobile account. Got 3 days of premium, 5 gold boxes, 24k crystals, Africa paint, and toxic shot effect for striker. So not bad for 14 containers IMO.

 

Just opened a batch of 15 containers on my colonel. Best things I received was 35k crystals, pink elephant paint, and violet shot effect for striker. Still not bad, but not as good as what I received on my mobile account.

 

Also what's with tanki giving me shot effects for striker?

COME ON WHAT IS UP WITH THE CONTAINER ODDS. 

I think you might have gotten unlucky with this one. I mean, I got a lot of crys on my low acc and some paints on my high acc (even though I wanted augments), but I'm not complaining, because it's free stuff. Of course, everyone has these unlucky times, so I think this time the gods of luck chose you.

I got Magnum Blue, I don't like Magnum. I got Toxic + Snow Freeze, I don't like Freeze

If only we could trade. I love Magnum. Blue is cool

In summary: I don't like turrets!

2/14 turrets*. I dont like Magnum as well, mostly for its difficult mechanics, I'm convinced a large amount of players agree. Freeze is just based on preference, I personally like the weapon but I can understand if one does not. 

Also this is comparing two turrets on both ends of the weapon-spectrum. 

 

To add my complaint: I have 5 shot-effects for railgun and 2 for magnum including a XT-skin for the latter; both of which I do not practice/use on this account

I opened around 300 containers and didn't get any epic, legendary, or exotic items. Instead, I mostly got supplies and crystals. But I've seen people get wonderful rewards from these things - skins, drones, alterations - and not just once, but multiple times. The system is clearly rigged solely against me, and is designed to put me specifically at a disadvantage. The developers clearly have a personal vendetta against me. This is a terrible game and containers are a scam. Anyone who gets good rewards from containers is obviously part of an elite high society, a coalition of big buyers and helpers, who rule over the rest of the plebian players. I've wasted the last of my savings on these accursed containers and now I don't have anything to pay rent with, and so am going be homeless, and it's all your fault, Alternativa. I hope you're listening, because you're never going to get a dime of my hard-earned cash ever again, and know that you've brought this on yourself with your despicable greed. I've uninstalled the game and won't be coming back. Sayonara, au revoir, zai jian, auf wiedersehen, do svidanja, goodbye.

Lucky is important . 

[Viking4s 10,791]

What did you do to be targeted? Uncovered the truth about Tanki darkest secret or asking prickly questions?  
With luck there is a bell curve: the average (sometimes lucky, sometimes not; they confirm the probability set up) and then the ones that defies the probabilities: the very lucky ones (not you and not me) and the very unlucky ones (you). 

Remember with luck the bank always win.

I was ready to believe this topic until I got to the 4th sentence. Expected some comparative data between TO Youtubers' drops and the average players, but again, just indignity like 95% of this forum.

Move along, people.

I agree, but, not entirely. I agree that they should make things more fair in this matter of containers, but also, I think it was a bit of bad luck. The day before yesterday, I opened the 11 containers and even got a alteration for my hornet (flame resistance), and a lot of crystals. And in my weakest account I got 100 000 crystals and the purple shot color for Shaft.

As a member of the elite high society of buyers and helpers, I approve this 100% legitimate topic.

P.S. Very intrigued to see what the poll results will end up showing.

[Sacrifice 2,278]

As a member of the elite high sciecty of buyers and helpers, I have disgraced the class by only receiving supplies and crystals from containers. 

Trust me, there are helpers including me who are still waiting for a skin from regular containers.  

But I live by 'Dont loose hope, open' em again'. 

[DieselPlatinum 5,121]

Obviously he is just joking. Though great sense of humor.

[DieselPlatinum 5,121]

Just open 12 containers on my troll account. I got 10 days of premium, 5 gold boxes, 10k crystals, and crimson shot effect for firebird. Not bad. Again I opened them up on mobile version.

[DieselPlatinum 5,121]

Just opened a batch of 15 containers on my WO4 account. I got 5 gold boxes, 91k crystals, raccoon paint, a pack of 250 of each supply plus more, and the high precision aiming system alteration for smoky.

 

Once again this is on mobile.

Open your next batch of 15 on desktop for comparison.

Desktop gives crap rewards TBH. That's why I open them on mobile.

Not just that reason but I change my missions on mobile, and so I open the containers that I have before changing missions. And they also have boxes that gives you a small amount of supplies and crystals. So there's that.

Containers are rigged. The devs probably increase the chances of opening a rarer item for those enrolled in the YouTuber TO program. This means they will get more views since they will be getting better items, which people will want to see. In this way, Tanki videos are getting more views and the game might attract more players as a result.

I wouldn't say "rigged". More along the lines of more quantity = more quality. Meaning that the more containers you have, the better your chances of getting something good are.

If you can't pay your rent cause u wanted all your money on a game, thats your fault not Alternativa's. Next time just go to the test sever and open em for free.
