you actually can, i tested this on the test server, the chance is extremely low, but there is a chance of getting an item you already own from the containers.

This only happens if the item was unlocked previously while opening containers.

My guessing is that, if you keep opening containers without leaving, their inventory doesn't update, and the chance of getting a duplicate generates.

Hmm... that's interesting...

I think that's quite possible. But the inventory must be getting updated after every container opening, at least in the real servers.

It doesn't get updated, a simple example would be getting a augment from the container and then checking the pool/garage and then u can see it is not in the garage and still in the container pool.

You must have been mistaken, or experienced a bug as you can not get rewards such as skins/paints/etc more than once. In case you experience a bug like this, please record a video of it and submit it to us here. We will surely to report it to the devs.

I only witnessed of people not receiving the augment but only AFTER they refreshed, I'm not sure if there was a chance they could of gotten the same item again. The item was still available in the container pool.

honestly weekly containers are better

I've seen before a video in Youtube for a player who opened a thousand or 720 as I remember amount of containers, and he found a pattern of them with a specific way. I think it's like if I assume he opened 1000 as I remember it will be 720 + 144 + 28 + 5 + 1.1 + 0.23 -- Common Uncommon Rare Epic Legendary Exotic. Respectively

And if you noticed the pattern it's 720/5 = 144 then 144 / 5 = 28 Etc...

So if this was a true (for sure he is honest) but if the test was a true and until now haven't changed that's mean yes Containers rewards are pre determined by developers.

Btw, either this or that, it's the developers who got us into a maze of gambling by adding every important thing in the containers.. Btw, I will try to pull a picture from that video if I found it.

Edit: ok I have found the video..

And if you noticed the patter down, it's grow dividing from common is 2x of uncommon, uncommon is 3x of rare, rare is 4x of epic. That's what he was saying in the video. But I assumed above he opened 1000 containers but nope it was just 160.. So it's a harder to suppose that developers interrupt intentionally in containers, but it have a high doubt about that.

Does anyone know what this new Armadillo module is in the new ultra containers. Im concerned this will be like an uber OP item given that a turrets are currently covered

Not sure but it is likely in the container already.

What's the point of having super containers if it's to get rewards that are in the normal container?
I am really disappointed.

I have noticed that the Harpoon augment for Magnum cannot be found in containers, being it regular or ultra-containers. Currently I am missing two Magnum-augments, those are Adrenaline and Harpoon. When looking at the in-game possible rewards-section, I could find the former of the two listed but not the latter. To say, Harpoon is classified as an epic reward so it is not a special augment. 

Is there a reason Harpoon cannot be obtained through containers? If no, can it be added in the near future?

[alkyng 3,080]

If you want a certain Augment. Go buy it with your crystals which is more probable than getting it from containers.

It is not about me wanting to get Harpoon, my point is that it is strange that the augment cannot be obtained from containers like all other epic-tier augments. 

To add, yes I like Harpoon and I would definitely use it once I have it. However, I am currently using AGLM which works great too. I am in no desperate need to get the augment right away, but if I were to get Harpoon from a container for free - if it was possible of course - it would be a pleasant surprise

Topic Merged.

If we inspect container rewards closely we will find similar instances of garage equipment not found in containers. For example, the AP immunity augment for hovering hulls was not (and probably still isn't) a reward found in containers. 

It's the AP augments for tracked hulls that aren't in the containers.

Likely overlooked by devs.

suggest the inclusion of these augments in containers in our I&S forum.

Actually, better to post it in the bugs and glitches topic.

Likely yes. As long as it is being added, along with the AP-immunities for non-hovering hulls, it's fine by me

You can know the rarity here

Got my first-ever animated paint on my main account from a batch of 15 containers. The paint's name is digital borealis. Looks kinda nice.

[Crossbone 516]

Out of 3 containers I just opened in mobile version, all of them were in the epic category. Sky effect for twins, lollipop paint, and blue effect for magnum.

What kind of evil sorcery did I just pull?

Edited July 31, 2021 by Crossbone
Forgot the purple color was called epic.

[PirateSpider 1,489]

Opened up 15 containers on my main account. Received 50k crystals and a prime skin for Viking. Would've preferred Viking XT, but prime looks kinda nice.

that was just another way of saying - "prepare to be disappointed with the coinboxes :P"

 

But should I? I'm kinda torn... it's like choosing one of two crossroads.... one may lead to a tankoins tycoon...

It might be too soon to make a judgement, but the new containers feel extremely nerfed compared to the old ones. Before, one could reliably get 3500 crystals as a common drop in most of their containers. Now, that number is only 1000. Also, the uncommon (green) drop for crystals is 3000. Supplies are also at a higher rarity and come in smaller amounts. This is not to mention that getting the occasional 3/10 days of Premium Account access was very useful before, but is no longer possible from regular containers. 

Yes, I know that containers are more plentiful now and also contain legendary turret augments, but the nerf to crystal and supply drops is a big deal.

I just finished a daily mission and received a container and stars.  I open the container and guess what its a MK1 hammer and I have already MK5 hammer.  Why don't I get an upgrade to my existing MK5  hammer making it MK6?  The game is glitched it doesn't know I have MK5 and gives me MK1.  Would you guys please fix your game to operate correctly.

The latest apology addressed this issue, it's a bug they can't fix right now. Assuming you didn't buy mk1 hammer and skipped to higher modifications via kits etc, the system does not understand that you have Hammer as a result, hence it being in the pool. Don't worry though, you will not get it again.
