declined Platinum boxes

[RIDDLER_8 5,558]

I have a brilliantly cool new idea about a new type of crystals boxes that would be dropped in matchmaking battles. That type of drop box would be a "Platinum Box", which would have a crystal value higher than gold boxes, and lower than black boxes. That would be something like 5000 to 10,000 crystals to put it into perspective.

I would suggest that kind of drop box to only drop at Legend ranks because of its high value in crystals. This platinum box will only drop crystals, not supplies, nor paints or other stuff.

The color appearance of the Platinum box would be a shiny silvery blue color, just like platinum. The update should be cool and welcoming to players. Please tell me what you think below. Many thanks.

Declined

Adding your suggestion would mean that the removal of crystal boxes which happened many years ago would become invalid. If you add such Platinum boxes at Legend ranks, you will just get hordes of players going solely for these boxes, and as explained in this post: "battles were ultimately determined just based on the ratio of crystal box hunters to actual players, which was not something we favoured" and so the idea is declined.

Even though the idea was declined,why only for legends?

I think he means a new type of gold box that gives you 10k but is 10 times more rare than a normal gold box.

@GG_reg

No. I am not asking for the removal of crystal boxes. I want crystals boxes to remain in the game for low ranks. My suggestion concerns adding platinum boxes that randomly drops in matchmaking battles for legend ranks. Gold boxes and other crystal boxes would not be impacted at all if platinum boxes are added to the game.

This idea was originally planned by Issimo here: 

Please change the status to valid.

He is not talking about a gold box. If he was talking about a gold box, the idea would have been declined instantly because ideas regarding the "Increase / decrease of Gold Boxes' values or drop rates" are not accepted.

I didn't say you were asking for the removal of crystal boxes, I fully understood your suggestion. I think you should read my reasoning again as you have misunderstood my point. Basically, the answer is no because if you add these boxes for Legends, then players will just play to collect these boxes and not play the objective which will just ruin gameplay.

@GG_reg

Well, I think that those platinum boxes would have to drop rarely like black boxes. That would solve the problem with players not trying to focus on battles properly.

[RIDDLER_8 5,558]

Yes, and no.

Black boxes and platinum boxes would be two different box types.

It got declined because of the rules, but the idea is good. I forgot about the rules, sorry.

I think something like the Platinum Box idea could be better than Black Boxes, because everyone would know the reward they are getting, unlike the Black Box where many go to the Garage to check what they got in the middle of the battle and then announce they got 125 Mines.

But...but, you could also get 1,000,000 crystals. Don't you want 1,000,000 crystals? 

[RIDDLER_8 5,558]

Sometimes, I play 8-ball pool.

But definetely higher than 1000.

[RIDDLER_8 5,558]

Yeah.

[lssimo 1,559]

Another idea could be that "admin" dropped Gold boxes give Crystals depending on your rank.

Recruit = 500

Legend = 5000

[RIDDLER_8 5,558]

@Issimo

Maybe they could do that during holidays, but developers claimed a long time ago now that gold boxes will always be worth 1000 crystals. Black boxes and containers are supposed to give a higher value in crystals, plus supplies, augments and other goodies.

What was your original Black Box idea?

Was that idea yours?

[alkyng 3,081]

the gold box now with its rarity is rare to see (though you see it a lot because it's dropped by players),, and the Container box is more rare ,,, and you want they to make a platinum box that is more rare than those all    

what maybe with its hard rarity you will can't see it one in a year ,, it will be too rare,

above of all if you see it lastly, and let's assume that you will catch it among all the players in the game   -1/16- ,, its at last 5000 crystals at Legend ranks (( it's really nothing

[RIDDLER_8 5,558]

I know. Such a rare box would not be needed to be implemented.

[lssimo 1,559]

I think it would be better by the rank bracket of the battle.

I was thinking 5000 because 10000 would be too far different from the regular "admin" Gold Box.

I think the Black Box should be removed, it is too distracting, and too much for low rank Gold waiters. If we want containers we can always do Missions and Challenges.

[RIDDLER_8 5,558]

No. black boxes must remain, but platinum boxes would be decidable by developers. They can choose whether or not to implement platinum boxes. This topic I made is just a suggestion.
