crates can't be random.
since halloween i dropped a lot of ZP for the kriss, got it, really wanted the AK for my collection but hey hum. and tried to roll a 2nd DE-c and a 2nd anaconda-a. what i noticed after spinning over 300k GP crate was that the 3rd box was always GP./ EVERYTIME it seems a bit strange for a random system to do that so regularly. can you guys spin a load of GP crates and tell me if you also only get GP in the third crate plz. on the 2 pistols. its just out of interest, as someone thats prepared to invest in a game i find it shocking your forced to gamble in the first place, more BP and voucher items may help alleviate that negativity a bit, but after spinning so much and finding that the pistol GP crates seem to be locked into giving GP on the third crate everytime... its bit frightening to tell you the truth. ppl like me that earn a lot of money can drop cash as they want, but i am beginning to worry about the younger community that are forced to gamble with the bit of money they have. as long as there isn't a very big BP mall i think Z8 are actually exploiting gambling to minors, they just found a neat little loophole.
anyway, don't want to be to negative, i just found it strange that a apparently random system seems not quite so.

k, could be it, i just found it strange and not at all random that the 3rd crate, aka the top one in spin and 3rd in the boxes was always GP and never anything else. its the first time i paid attention to it as i already have all the crate guns. and i noticed it on the pistols. i will spin another 50 crates and see if it changes.
!edit: same result always GP in the 3rd crate. plz test.
srry to hear that x-faith, i got really lucky on most, so i have all GP crate guns and all interesting ZP ones apart from the ak scope, thats cost me about 200k ZP and i still havent got it. bad times for a ak freak. atleast i have the knife and enjoy 1 shotting with it, tho its a hard gun to use. -
i still kept testing and yes, its not as random as it seems. GP is in top crate, gun in bottom. so essentially within the 1.100 chance of getting a weapon your still then dealing with the 1/3 it appears in the bottom. this also throws up the question why do guns sometimes show above or below when you don't win them. as the system clearly dictates gun is 1st or 2nd crate and GP is 3rd. to be honest i think aslong as theres no new coupon guns or BP guns its a complete ripoff. it also throws the question on ZP crates, in my experience you get a lot of 3x 1k GP wins, far more than any random factor would allow for as its ALWAYS 3x 1k gp thats like 1 crate type that appears every 6 spins atleast. not random at all. overall i think its extremely abusive system that requires massive investment, and theres very little being done for those that invest in the game. only game i know that forces you to gamble with yer invested ingame money if you want nice guns.

on a related note, i noticed that whenever you win a permanent gun, it's always the bottom most ball on the spinner. can someone confirm or disprove this please? thx

Nope...
I've won Winchester in the middle, msg at top, m4-c in middle, deagle camo in top, anaconda adv in top, and scope in middle. -

Its display code, not the random function. Granted its impossible to create true randomness.
Just like the first box always holds the permanent gun.
EDIT: ok, i noticed that the perm gun was always displayed in the first box, but l0lsmileyface's post cleared up my confusion about the spinner. -
I also find the gambling system to be unfair to the people who buy zp regulary because you can spend lots of money just to see if your lucky.In my opinion we should have al least some of the zp crate guns in BP because its just too much money for a gun your spending here and its hard for me to belive its making people buy more zp.
We are spending our money and donating to this game just to gamble it on a gun we want instead of just getting it directly.
