Oh, you were referring to that. I hate it if you can't edit your posts, did some weird mistakes in mine
Anyways, so far as I know this was just a display bug and you wouldn't get the amount of GP that was displayed in the end. I haven't heard of people seriously getting that amount..I could be wrong here tho'
Yep, you are wrong about the display bug. Some guy even made a video about it. lol
After they found out, they removed everything which they brought with the GP and the GP was returned to the original amount that had before. -

Well, didn't know about this, thanks for the info.Yep, you are wrong about the display bug. Some guy even made a video about it. lol

But still it's a different case I guess. For this bug there was real money involved - which wasn't the case for the dog tag bug. -
They get to keep the axe and get free crates? This isn't even a negative for them. If they get to keep the axe, they shouldn't get the crates. Especially, when it was super easy to get an axe.
I honestly don't care, but I'm just staying my thoughts.
This.
Or they should have done a rollback. -
Oh well guys there not going to change their minds, just remember there will be a bug next patch and when there is make sure you abuse it, you might even get some free GP for doing so.
~im off this thread now
This again.
Well unlike others, I spinned my ZP after the bug was fixed, I lost, big woop. Oh well. There's next patch. -
Really? That's a solution huh?
I was right there when the servers went up and put some ZP in, but the STUPID deposit system didn't allow me to have my 50k ZP right when I deposited last night. Therefore, I couldn't spin the crate and won easy axe like the others.
I got all my ZP back now, but only after the bug was fixed.
Wow, that is fair... -
What's done is done guys. Even if they didn't remove the axes, not a whole lot of people stayed up last night, spun and actually won and axe. So as for the general public, no harms done.
The reason they awarded extra crates is as compensation for those players who they removed excessive amount of Combat Axes Octane won during the bug period.
Just forget about this incident and move on with your life -
Yeah yeah forget,Why forget?even if 1 guy won it easy it s not fair towards the others.And manny have won it because when it s night in USa it s day in other countries,at that hour there are usually a lott of people in servers.WHy not give them back all the crates back to spin fair?not bluse smoke,or all the zp back to buy what they want it
A bug it s a bug,it was abused.Crossfire has become a bad experience,bad management from staff,full of hack,and bad community,soon this game will die -

They did this kind of thing (in a way) with the gold m4 tiger.
If you removed ALL of the axes off of the people who won it, they would be mad. It was a mistake on z8's hand, not the people who won the axe. Z8 does not know who didn't know of the bug, and who knew of it. So as an "exchange" they are letting them keep an axe or two. By taking away the 2-4 axes, they were gonna get nothing? They were right about giving them crates to make up for it.
It's funny how it was a glitch and people are complaining because they spent zp and didn't get to abuse the glitch. I feel like some of the people who didn't win the axe are mad because the bug didn't work for them, and are only complaining because they want something. -

This morning a few players might have noticed that there was a slight issue with the Octane Crates. In so far as that they were awarding a very large number of Axes!
While it is exciting to win a permanent weapon, winning 6 permanent axes from 30 crates is not something that the original crate was supposed to do. The bug was found and fixed and everything should be normal with the crate.
We are adjusting the numbers of axes that players won (especially in the extreme examples) and giving back more Octane crates to those players to give them further chances to win the M4A1-Octane or another axe, only this time fairly, as the crate was intended.
What does this mean?
In all cases of players who won more than 2 axes we will be reducing the # of Combat Axe - Octanes on your account to 2. Then, depending on the amount of crates you originally purchased we will award up to 40 bonus crates to the account.
All players who won 2 Axe's with purchases of crates under 50 will be reduced to 1 and 10 bonus crates will be awarded.
Here are some examples.Say you purchased 100 Octane crates, and you won 6 Axes. The number of axes will be reduced to 2, and you will be awarded 40 bonus crates.We feel that this gives an adequate reward for players who have already purchased and won Combat Axes in the Octane Crate. And also shows our dedication to making sure that players who purchased these crates have items to use and in the quantities they would expect from a problem that should not have occurred but that we are deeply sorry for.
Say you purchased 35 Octane crates and you won 5 axes. You will be reduced to 2 and awarded 25 bonus crates.
Say you purchased 30 Octane crates and you won 4 axes. You will be reduced to 2 and compensated with 15 bonus crates.
Please note that no player can win more than 6 as the game will only allow you to have that many in the first place which overall reduces the excitement of trying to win the M4A1 Octane. But now we have given out bonus crates, often equal to half or more of the total crates you originally purchased, which should give you some awesome chances at even more prizes.
Further more, please note that this bug was fixed very fast and this whole process did not affect a very large group of people. If you were not affected by this, then there is no need to comment. We are talking about less than one half of 1% of the people who have played the game today.

One Saidin to Another saidin you just told us , its Rigged whilst others spend sh!t loads on this , Gp crates i couldnt care , Bm zp market is rigged cause Saidin said so -
wth
wrong is that?
"All players who won 2 Axesrslly, I purchased 50 crates and won the 2 Axe's, but now all i see is 10 bonuse crates and 0 Axe, what's 's with purchases of crates under 50 will be reduced to 1 and 10 bonus crates will be awarded."
not make any sense to me. -

Wow, that is fair...
The ZP deposit issue and the Combat Axe Octane are two seperate issues. You received your ZP that you originally deposited but there was an issue the prevent the completion of the deposit.
The ribbon issue has been looked at. They corrected the image, as well as manually awarded the ribbon, to those who didn't use the event page but still met the requirements, on Monday.now fix the bugs with the ribbons lately, people complete the tasks and days goes by yet no ribbon.
Exactly. Everyone here that has a grumble about it is that they themselves could not been there to abuse the bug. It's one thing to have been spinning crates as normally and win, it's a whole other thing to "discover" the bug and then exploit it by winning 5 more axes. It was a more-than-fair way to rectify the situation.WaffleMunzta wrote: »It's funny how it was a glitch and people are complaining because they spent zp and didn't get to abuse the glitch.

The black market is not rigged. This was a bug issue. Meaning this was not an intended feature on how the crate should be working. It was corrected in a swift manner to only affect less than 1% of the ingame population.
