Just opened up the game and it advertizes "DSC only prizes in gold chest black market."
If you open up a gold chest, and scroll far enough to the right, you'll find power cells, gold, silver, etc - all of which are not "DSC."
Either those prizes can't be won or the text associated with it is a straight out lie.
"DSC fan?" Get only DSC content in the Gold Chest! Don't miss the Black Market Special"

Some are glass half full types.
Not me obviously..
I guess the event is a bit different...so thats something.
( speaking for myself) Desperate for some good news i think...
Only thing i come up with is at least the friend system got better. One thing...the rest has been challenging.

Come on bro... they've literally added full robots to the regular gold chest instead of weapons. Even some titans, like the Rook and Luchador which can be very strong in today's meta. How is that bad or me supporting Pixonic lol |

It isn't a question about the strength of some of the gold chest prizes. There also isn't a presentation of what % chance you have to win a Rook - it might be the same as getting a thing of powercells.
The event advertises as "DSC robots only" but the prize list includes resources. Unless that part of it is a bug, people can still "win" gold/silver/powercells and that means the event is false/misleading advertising and actionable.
What do I mean by actionable?
If I bought 10,000 black market chest coins and opened 10 gold chests, if I got even 1 of them that wasn't a DSC robot then I'd be at least entitled to a refund from the Apple Store/Play Store.

I agree. What’s in the box doesn’t mean all that much. The chances of winning the items does. Would be good to have some data on the payouts since tHose titans are worth a bit of silver. edit- it’s probably a nerf nothing all the payout changes of late like the extermination ones. |

This event is a con, plain and simple. It is a con to get more people to buy black market keys.
Outside of this event, a gold chest gets you a "tier 4 thing" (unless you score a booby prize.)
This event you have the chance of winning a tier 1, 2, 3, or 4 "thing". The only difference being that the "thing" you win has a chance of being a superchest item.
For the vast majority of gold chest openings, this event will result in an item of lesser value (than regular gold chests) being revealed by the player.
Yet people here are going "Oh it is great event!" (says the poster who is a Pixonic shill on youtube.)
The in game text is a lie and the event is a con. Par for course when it comes to Pixonic.

I thought it was not bad considering it included titan stuff but as stated, if they don't publish the actual odds of landing particular items, it is just smoke and mirrors.
What I didn't like was seeing pilots in there. You get so many pilots just by opening silver chests already and again, what are the chances of actually landing the pilot that you want from the gold chests?

I was semi-interested, as I have a few thousand keys saved up from the daily special "watch a video". Then I saw silver chest rewards (pilots) in the gold chest list of rewards.
NVM...

My video. I think the drop rates were quite good. On the contrary to those that have already written off the game and are still here for no apparent reason, I believe this event was quite good. Sure, pilots are a bit of an annoying prize, but worth it because you can still get full robots.

Sure, pilots are a bit of an annoying prize, I would go a bit further and say they were another player screw over. Open a Silver chest for 100 keys and win a Captain Clyde or Anna Basarab (maybe others, I only noticed these 2), or, open a gold chest for 1000 keys and win a Captain Clyde or Anna Basarab. They should have been better in some way, maybe partly levelled or something (or maybe they were and I didn`t notice but then again - Pix, so probably not). |

Sure, pilots are a bit of an annoying prize, but worth it because you can still get full robots. Good to see what drops. Love watching these sort of vids to understand the drop rates. I'd say this seems like a temp nerf to the Gold Chest. I am not sure why people should care about whether its DSC or Evolife or whatever. That angle is just a marketing gimmick IMO. Recently I opened 30 ish gold chests to get the UE Pad. Landed heaps of titan weapons, modules and a couple of drones. The real value in this chest are modules, larger silver lots, Microschips,9000 keys and titan weapons (for silver). Not one titan dropped in 20ish opens. Probably a very low chance of getting one. The carrot. |
