Looking at the chest prizes... - Gold tokens (300/chest) are all shards. Shards, shards, and more shards. Useless. You have to open 5 gold chests to have a chance at something useful. - Bronze tokens (100/chest) will have most drops being shards. I've already got more nuclear weapons than I can throw a stick at. - 60 prizes in 40 days, with the first event task prize being locked.

As Jeb said, there's nothing in there I'm all that interested in so it really doesn't make much difference to me.
If people don't buy the stupid tokens to get crap rewards, maybe Pix change things slightly.

It’s all according to plan. The spenders are gonna spend and get all the new gear while disparity widens and they continue to pound on non or lesser spenders and hacking becomes more rampant.

I agree with Jeb and you blokes. There are two ( no, three!) Four! courses of action: 1. Spend like crazy to keep up with the subtle hackers ( Dammit Pix!) 2. Hack 3. Stumble along in a mostly F2P fashion 4. Quit

fight fire with fire, LITERALLY.
1. unattach any spending account or method of payment with your game account. hurt them where it hurts most, THEIR wallet. 2. go old school, i found Indra and Seraph both dont like flames. Still takes a bit to kill, but it will weaken them alot. maybe the closest i have of meta use is a setup of shotties, and radiation weps, but just over mk2.1, not mk3. 3. change up your style a bit. I find myself being a more cautious brawler lately. Not going all in and getting wild, but really creeping into reds territory. Think scorpion(and I never ran one, but I see their method and adopted it.) 4. TANK IT OUT. Sounds odd yes, but if you lack speed and firepower like I do with spiders, piss them off by NOT DYING EASY!! They hate it

I actually do like the Gothic Mars, so there is one thing I have my fingers crossed on getting, which makes this event better than the last one for me. Otherwise though, I agree that this is one of the worst events yet.

Did anyone else get the gold chest left over tokens rolled over to the new event? Was curious as to why I didn't get a chest opening with the leftovers on event end but the balance rolled to the new event.
Maybe they getting sick of players collecting another gravity amp with their 20 left over tokens LoL.

I could’ve gotten nothing of value from the last event or nothing of value from this event. It’s a toss up. Last event I was given 100Pt and 1000 Pirate MS Snowflakes ❄️ So they’re equally useless to me.

And agree, don't need more gravity amps. I think my Seraph count is now up to 3. What's more, I don't want to open any of them in this event. If I could decide to have them carry forward again, I would. The last 3 events have had 24 hours of VIP as an operation prize which was actually worthwhile. That's gone and has been replaced with tokens of some colour. Given how much effort the event challenges required historically, unless they're dead set simple they won't be worth the effort unless you're subscribed.

I got enough components to complete one more Hazard, so I've now got four of those (three standard and one Cryptic). I think I also got some Decay components, but I've got a pair of those too.
So now, unless I'm getting Fainter components, I'm selling all of my incoming components. (Again.) Builds up the silver reserves needed to level the stuff I actually want to use.

I’m in a similar boat. I have a Hazard in use and 4 sitting idle. I have 2 Blights in use and 1 sitting; I guess 1 more would round things out. I have 2 Decays and no plans to use them. Other than getting Fainters (I have zero) there’s nothing appealing. Even then, upgrading is so expensive it’s debatable whether I’d upgrade any more than 2 (at most).

I don't feel as bad now with my 2 lots of 500 frozen scorn (sounds like a new flavour of Slurpee) and 100pt. From what I've seen, the scorn turret is crap anyway and they put such a high value on shards?

Absolutely nothing of value in the chests. Same recycled bull「dookie」 weapons. The gold chest is a joke. You could open a line on the square thing and your reward could be a 「fluffernutter」ing paintjob for the Angler. If that was me I would literally kill myself.
Definitely going to be cutting back on play time, I'm just going on to record videos to keep my channel alive at the moment. It just isn't fun anymore.

None of their Halloween event looks like anything Halloween I’m familiar with. With the color choice and odd symbols here and there, it looks more like a preparation for ritual sacrifice.
I find it very off-putting.

Maybe they've just run out of ideas. Actually, I wouldn't mind that. Stop the events, stop the new stuff, just make sure everything is available either via shop or shards or keys. And let it be for 6 months while they concentrate on fixing match making, fix the hanger experience, fix the combat bugs, etc.

Junk. I already have enough Radiation Weapons to outfit every bot I have but not the Silver to Level Up one. On the plus side you can sell them for a bit of silver. The newer stuff like Angler I'll see in 6 months when PIX starts giving it away.

Prior to today, I haven't opened any event chests. I decided to try my luck and open a silver chest. 500 shards. Frack that for a joke, I'm going to continue ignoring the chests.

Itâs 「dookie」 for sure, but it goes deeper IMO. It appears that they have officially stopped giving a 「fluffernutter」 about ANYTHING and everything. They stopped even pretending to care. No more freebies, 「dookie」 offers, zero response to hackers is old news by now but it feels different this month.

Dont forget dumbing down the game even further with nonsensical bots like the angler and upcoming nether with magic coming out the wazoo. Had a game yesterday against multiple anglers and all you could do was just try to run away like a frightened gazelle. Funny though, our randoms won against the full squad because they could not hold beacons down with all the flying, phase shifting BS going on.

At the end of this event, all my gold things were turned into stuff. I should not have left the gold tokens from the prior event, at least they would have turned into something useful. This event, gold tokens gave me shards and more shards. Out of all the "prizes" that my bronze, silver, and gold gave me that I didn't have before were 1000 mars shards and maybe 2500 jam shards.
I feel sorry for those that paid for tokens at this event and got even more shards than I did.
I guess Putonic have now killed event chests/tokens.

Looks like they doubled down on the Christmas event. It’s more or less the same set up as the last event which even the YouTubers hated. And it has 250 shards as prizes now.
My guess is their data showed the last event was a success on their end due to the mirage that was the Angler sales.
This event looks worse. They plugged in so many old prizes that chances of getting the new stuff became less.

And it has 250 shards as prizes now. I did have a laugh when I saw that. 500 shards was way too generous apparently. They were giving away too many blight and mace style weapons from previous events.

Looks like Christmas is giving Halloween a run for the money.
Nuking our hangers of bots, weapons and skins... unbelievable.
Had a saying in the Army... "Dumb like a box of rocks." Fitting.
