Solution for people mad about RNG

Every time you scrap an item, you get a token of the corresponding item tier (rare, epic, etc.)

When you get like 50 tokens in a tier you can trade it for any item of that tier.

This protects people from extreme bad luck results in RNG, gives people hope, makes them less mad, etc.

This may have been suggested before, but there is no way I am reading through every single post.

 

This is a pretty good idea. It'd be a little easier to get what you wanted, but it would also encourage people to buy more crates. It works for both parties.

 

I am not sure that it would increase crate purchases. I think on a per capita basis crate purchases would go down, but overall player retention would go up. That would indicate increased ad revenue, and probably VIP revenue, but the change in overall crate purchases would depend on the changes in number of players and per capita crate purchase rate.

Generally I think that Battle Bay has gone about some things kind of backwards, first task should have been to grow the player base at a maximized rate, instead they went for (my opinion) quick money. But the process of getting quick money caused other players to become disenchanted with a seemingly hopeless situation. With this idea the ''hopeless" aspect would be diminished- if they keep grinding, watching ads or paying their VIP, they WILL get those items, which is not a guarantee with RNG.

 

I see your logic there. Yeah, I made a little mistake there lol. I think SOME people might buy more crates, though, considering you would get a ton of tokens and be able to pick out whatever you want by doing so. I rarely buy crates because I know my luck (terrible most of the time).

 

RNG Man Ppl r Mad at it

 

You could actually be right, I don't fully understand the motivation of people who buy a bunch of boxes but definitely it could be a more guaranteed shortcut to getting for example the FoTM OP loadout.

 

Right, right. This way, it would gaurantee that you will eventually get what you want.

 

Yep I Just Got The Standard Shield today and its a Epic Woot Woot P.s Its About Time I always Get Epic Rudders And Gear Lubes

 

But I Need One More Epic Standard To Make it Better Then my Tier 2 Rare Standard

 

I actually use a rudder instead of a standard on my fixer for the awesome agility boost, but if my skipper idea was a thing, the base agility would be good enough to switch back to standard shield.
