I opened two silver chests and got just 500Au and 50 tokens. Will try to get one of the new bots.

FINALLY got all Dash Bots Cost me over £350 - glad i have a good job - and credit card that my wife doesnt know about...LOL I have found by doing it the wrong way - that you are better off using the Auto Spin feature, This seems to actually give you a better return than single spinning. Bulgasari - was won on my second ever spin but I had baught the highest keys package - this was from a gold chest. ALL spent of gold chest spins Took alot of money to get the next one though - £220 (wasted??) with 2 scourges and loads of stuff that i didnt wat/ need - Lance,Fury - 8 garaths - 3 Rogs loads of zues's (?) - This was mix Overdrive silver and gold chests - but all single spins not the auto feature. I have won both Kumiho & Haechi split £30 for Kumiho and £7 for Haechi - Kumiho was won from opening silver chests to fill up the superchest - then won from the superchest. Heachi was won on silver chest auto spin on my 7 spins - won enough coins for another 4 and it was the second spin of those 4. Still haven't won a Tempest at all ?? I have tired to keep this a concise as possible, although that is quite hard to do- Really hope this helps you to spend your money as wisley as possible - or you hard won keys from playing. If your not spending money I would probably recommend saving Keys for as long as possible then spending them on the silver chest with auto spin - obviously I have no idea if the total money that i have spent has had any bearing on the bots received - or if it is just random - Good Luck all Thanks for the advice about spinning all at once. It's a little late for me, but I'll do that in the next BM round.
Just curious, are you on Android or iOS? One theory bouncing around is that the Android folk somehow get better takes from silver chests. I've gotten only currency from silver and it appears that others have experienced similar results. Thanks again for your input.
I wonder if the odds are higher with an auto spin because the item it lands on once is not replaced for the next spin. pure speculation. I will save keys and try method above.

Hi Dead eye I play on android if that helps - My kids do play as well with one on Android and one on IOS so I might be able to test this - unfortunately I have spent all my money on me ...mwahhhaaaaaa ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

So Pix, that's it. I'll only spend real life money in the future if I know what I get for it. Against my better judgement I invested 100$ in total and got me:
- A useless Lancelot. Age of Brits is over and, of course, I was aiming for at least the tiny korea bot - A useless Ancile - Just above 3000 AU, so I could get my 5th hangar slot. Ok. this was useful but not worth 100$ - No weapons. No Ork, no Taran, no Gekko, no Zeus. But I got level 1 Molots. Anyone need?
Keep your gambling ?poo-poo? tickets to yourself and I hope you'll lose a lot of revenue when slapping in the face of your customers like you did. [GOT QUOTE]: Shame. Shame. Shame. Shame!

After spending close to 200$ ?. I finally managed to get these. 1. Heyachi ? - not sure on the spelling. 2. Lancelot. 3. 2 x Zeus. 4. 2 x orkan's. 5. Around 2000 in AG. 6. A whole lot of junk. The Korean bot and the lance came from the Super chests ( I opened 2).

Hi Guys, remember, keys and chests bought with real money is GAMBLING. The house always wins. Why? Because you end up with some new pixels in your game and PIX gets your real life money.
It's ok if that's what you want, but don't pay real money if you will be upset with getting one type of pixels vs. another.

Well just grinded for the last 13 days to get 1000 keys. Did not open 1 chest during the whole time. The last battle to win the 1,000th key was pretty epic. Got a new high score of about 1.2 million. Was this a sign of good things to come? Would I get the coveted Haechi on my first and only gold chest roll? I frantically pulled the handle and the line stopped on 550 au. Not a dash bot in sight. That is the smallest gold reward possible in the gold chest. I would have rather had 500 tokens, which is also the lowest possible token reward. Oh well, I guess its back to the grind tomorrow

My last chest..lol ![](https://i.imgur.com/6NCZUCt.png) What a joke! I just have to laugh....lol For everyone that spent $RM, no bad feelings, hope you were lucky!

I would not be in the least bit surprised if Pixonic knew who spent money on keys vs won keys and give better odds to purchased keys. I have the feeling you are damn right there. Pretty sure they know and wouldn't put it past them, but I doubt bought keys are better. I spent around $430 and got 0 dash bots. That said, there are some people claiming that they got awfully lucky with keys they had been "gifted" by Pix...

Didn't use $, played usual style and amount (probably more...) and let the pixies auto roll. With about 300 keys, I ended up with about 700 gold and 500k silver. Can't complain, as I used it to help buy an Orkan the old fashioned way. Still in the gold/diamond levels, and having fun with the regular bots.... At the end, it's only a game.

For me it's hard to justify buying keys. I have enough of every weapon and bot I could want. If I wanted more lancelots I have gold to buy. I don't particularly want a scourge or a Bulgasari, so the only prizes desirable to me would be 2x Tempest, Haechi and most of all a kumiho. Using figures reported by BM equip winners I could expect to pay 500-1000 USD to obtain that want list. Put into perspective, I paid around that for my PS4 Pro, 27" 4K monitor, BF1 & now Overwatch. Now these are products with massive R&D plus manufacturing in the case of Sony and a team of hundreds for Dice & Blizzard. Spend the equivalent of that for a few bits of loot to a company still coming to grips with using Unity after 3 years? Nah. Here's something more compelling: Disposable income or no...you're not gonna sell a CHANCE for a few mobile game items for the price of something that can really F**k 「dookie」 up. ![](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170911/2bc627c1d1d031afea180d997bcc8140.png)

Domino I was referring to some clanmate of Adrian that spend $1900 just because he wants Dash hangar. That's crazy in every way. As crazy as it sounds... this is not at all uncommon. I used to run several free to play websites. Well I still do but they are long since popular. For starters... 99% of the players don't pay anything. Of those who pay for something, like 2% are whales and that's where all the money comes from. Everyone free loads. But those few whales pay for the whole game. And the games are Unprofitable otherwise. I've found this true across several genre of f2p games I've run. Be it from Mafia wars style to flash battleships, to dog breeding games for girls. You basically sit around borderline profitable and then you get your hit and your good till the next special a few months later. Second, and I don't know why, but 2000 is a common whale spend for these games . So pixonic tailoring for it to be a 2k spend is not at all surprising to me. But mark my words, were it not for these whales. This game would suck, because they would not earn enough to profit. So instead of ridiculing, be thankful for them, they pay for our enjoyment.

I drew 3 kumi. very common. but honestly its not worth paying even 100 for 2 scourge. I can do more damage in point blank range with a gekko patton than a scourge. maybe I'm doing it wrong but I find the scourge not worth the money. I'm in the same boat as you, unless they provide direct buy links to what I want in the future, I dont see myself using the black market. there is very little value to be had from it now for me. edit; ps: that ar is a far more solid investment these days. guns in general hold their value well, and the way things are going you might need it some day.

I think the general consensus is that they are indeed alittle too strong. I probably wouldnt invest too much in these, considering I would expect a nerf in the future.

As to holding value it all depends on how regulations evolves. Just look at AKs. What that VOX guy spent...that's MCX in blk money. Well, I guess it could have been worse spent. He could of..y'know bought $1900 of bath salts. With that kind of common sense he just might one day.

Well, this turned out to be an interesting thread, and we're now more clearly seeing how outrageously overpriced the new content really is
- Some folks spent nothing. Most of them got nothing, but a few lucky ones seem to have gotten a Dash. Chances for that are probably in the 1% range. The other ones are lucky, too, because they didn't spend any money. - It seems to require at least $100 to get a Dash with reasonable confidence - Others have spent $300-$500 to get maybe two Dashes and a few Scourges or Tempests (look at some of the Youtubers) - The guys that run full Dash hangars have likely spent >$1500 - Many have spent X amount of $ and have gotten nothing
I am in the last category. Luckily, I only spent ~$40 to open two superchests (got 3000 keys in the first one). Return was another Rog, another Galahad, another Zeus. You get the picture.
This whole game seems to have lost any proportion. It's a fricking mobile game! As others have pointed out, for $500 you can get a Playstation and a couple of full-budget game titles. Or quite a lot of other stuff in real life that provides much better value than a few pixels in a mobile game. I was perfectly fine spending $20 or $30 a month, it's a fun game afterall. I live and work in one of the most expensive places on earth and can easily spend $40 or $400 if I wanted to.
But I'm not going to spend any more money on the game. In fact, I have stopped getting Premium, too. It has become a rip-off and a money grab. If facing the Dashes becomes too annoying once people figure out how to use them (Haechi already is), I'll just stop playing and take my time and business elsewhere.
