Anyone tried the new gambling mechanic yet, ultimate luck? I mean seriously, 10k au for a spin that will most likely land you an out of expiry date pilot or 20 micro chips. No thanks! All this new BS they are shoving down our throats is only beneficial for content creators, so they can show us how stupid they are *the new content, not the creators LoL*  |

I might do it for a video... Thoughts? Read my last line. It's the only entertainment we will get out of it but no doubt the 3-4 bigger creators will spend heaps of their "free" gold to show us how "easy" it is to land that big win box. |

All this new BS they are shoving down our throats is only beneficial for content creators, so they can show us how stupid they are *the new content, not the creators LoL* Thank you for posting your outrage. I was going to post a rant but you cover it well. Just please let me add: 10k Au?!? Really, Pix? COME ON!!!! 
Ok, thanks. I feel better.  What the hell? The "Win" box would have to be way better than just a Rook it would have to be a Rook with the latest freeze weapons or a Rook that's half-leveled. Only the uber Whales are gonna bite in a 10k Au spin. If they were gonna be stupid just make it a 10k Pt spin! Fluffers. |

Buahahaha!!!! Is any of that worth 10,000 gold? Nope! I saw that this morning and busted up laughing. I had such high hopes after the new event. I forget sometimes what game this is.

I've always said that outside the battles, Pix behaves like a corrupt casino. All the roulette wheels and slot machines for resources have been made far from random and obviously benefit the house. Pay offs are stingy as though they actually cost Pix real money to provide.
Now in this update we have a blatant gambling theme with a (mis)Fortune Palace casino owner/pilot who is the ... um ... er ... FACE of Pix's greed. Don't be distracted by Gintare, she is just a ... um ... er ... FRONT for the real bosses.
For me, the entertainment value of Pix's increasing venality is beyond measure. Like Dr. BoomWR, I end up laughing a lot, often at my own expectations each update. Once again, update 9.1 is just a ... um... BUST.

Yeah I know, and they didn't even finish her character drawing. I mean, they forgot to give her eyes! oh, wait,... Oh, dang, there they are. I guess she had them all this time. Jeesh, my bad. |

If they have a Boa in one of these prize pools, I will probably drop some gold just for that. I got a Schutze from that April Fools deal and do not really care about Golem, but I really want a Boa for 6 Pack!

For anyone wondering, the big prizes under the “win” tab are the fabled ultimate equipment. So yeah, the “Ultimate Luck” name and the purpose of this thing’s existence make a lot more sense with that in mind!

Buahahaha!!!! Is any of that worth 10,000 gold? For those of us that started the game when the War Robots were Walking, there’s a nostalgia to the Schutze. If looked upon as a collectible, its possibly worth it. Similarly, if there were either a skin for the Boa that’d give it the OG toaster appearance (or if released as an Ultimate edition) I’d wager it’d sell like hot cakes. |

Ah yes I remember those Walking War Robots days, before drones, pilots, and titans. I believe you had to pay for repairs as well. Good times. May those who go for the nostalgia be lucky enough to win it on the first pull. |

Trying so hard not to laugh...... A Trixe hope pilot and a Shutze (20k gold) then these are the prizes that rock up for the super dooper spin thingy. Is that a paint job for a Khepri? And 20 microchips.... Oh the joy! It resets after each spin so you can't even "guarantee" you will get to the super spin box....... Yep, seems legit.  |

but, but a SCHUTZE also what r those black orkan things He goes on to get another 2 Schutzes. The black orkans are what all the whales are chasing, that and the Spectre bot which are the new "ultimate" editions that pretty much take the bot/weapons back to what they were before they nerfed them...... You can't make this 「dookie」 up! |

So look, I'm as guilty of a P2W mindset as many folks are. "Oooo I need that new Angler bot so i can rule the battlefield!" But this Ultimate Luck thing is just flying-through-a-rolling-donut stupid. I'D BE EMBARRASED TO SHOW UP WITH A FULLY KITTED ULTIMATE SPECTRE/ORKANS.
If Pix made this 500 or 1k per spin I might have a go here and there but 10k is WHACK.
