Random Dog tag? Really?

Hobbss

Let's cut the bull... Random dog tag really? I've got the same 'random' dog tag for the 3rd day respectively..... This just not fair.....
Keep in mind, Just because you see an EGY arguing, does not mean he QQ it...





OK, I did QQ this one, But not because I'm EGY.

That's just how it is. Either you get lucky, or you don't. I personally would of liked a "Get 3 Multiple Letters? Exchange them for the one you want!" type of function.

But hell, it's a permanent shotgun, having a bit of randomness to it when it comes to something like that isn't something I'll condemn the Game for.

You still have about 26 Dogtags to go before the gun goes away, so keep at it. Or if you really can't wait, you could do Surveys and get some Extra Missions which give you 2 Dogtags per completed mission, AND it counts towards your Monthly Missions, even.

I've had rather pleasant experiences with my Extra Missions, so I can't really share that same train of thought. Although damn, if you really did get 20 R's, my utmost condolences.

guys we cant do anything about those random things, this random is same as random of the black market, at least this random u get 1 or 2 of those CROSSFIRE letters, but the blackmarket got alot multi same things comes out over and over, are we going to see some1 else complain now about the black market multi spray and multi 7 days of same gun over and over and now winning? this will not help u already, its not QQ already, this is random, random means random, u cant get that lucky only in time u get lucky, well at least we can complain already if we dont win in black market dont we? or its not QQ? come on and let this thing work randomly already, and i still saved my extra 13 mission already, and i will use all those days and use the 13 extra later when this event is almost over, i will not waste my extra mission in first days already, its not like this event is like, achievement of who get the stricker shutgun first and the top 1000 who get it first will get 100000 zp or something, there is nothing already, even with the first 1000 or something i got no chance to beat them

I think the dog tags are given randomly...the fact that you got 3 times same cards in a row doesn't means that the dog tags are not given randomly, it is when you are unlucky.
I hope you will get better luck today.
PS: I used 12 extra missions cards in a row, so 24 dog tags in total for complete the collection, I had many repetitive cards. you should know that the more you collect, the chance you want to get the right card is decrease. Logic, when you have 0 cards collected, any cards gained are new, but imagine you only need a letter F among 9 cards, the chance is 1/9 for a single time.

Assuming that each dog tag has the same probability of being selected (which may or may not be the case), since each mission card grants you two dog tags, your odds are actually slightly higher than 1/9 (at 17/81th of a percentage). Regardless of probability, there's a chance it may take someone all 28 missions to get all letters and there's a chance to get all letters in as little as 5 missions. Basically, it really is just luck.

The extra missions cards are worth it IMO, considering, as Preset mentioned, they count towards the Ribbon requirement.

if you mean get a specific card from 2 dog tags which is the case of extra mission, then i agree with you, it is 1 --8/9*8/9 = 17/81.
Everything is based on luck in this game.... from wave card enchantment to BM crate, from slaughter ticket to random crate after every ZM2 map...

Yeah, I was talking about the extra mission cards.

Why don't you try to be more thankful?
GMs are doing a great job lately. At least we have got a permanent Shotgun as a reward for dog tags.

It's like Black Market, it's as random as a computer can do (<which isn't actually that random, but it' random enough). after about 8 dog tag rewards I'm still at only 3 different dog tags, yet you don't see making a thread to cry, do you?
Learn to cope with the systems like dog tags and black market already, it's been like this for years.
