Col_NASTY Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Saw it gave me 1000 so I just spent them... Not even sure how I got them to be honest. This is what I got. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrath_of_Deadguy Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Well, we finally got there- WG finally just dropped the act and gave us an event that consists only of a slot machine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfswetpaws Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 I used all the Golden Week tokens that I was issued. Which was a 1,000 tokens for 10 chances. Some of those chances provided more free tokens. So I played another 3 chances with those. I've got about 75 tokens left-over. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor3006 Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Has anyone read about the tokens converting to credits when the event is over? Didn't see anything about in Armory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meatgrindr Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 I guess I missed something. My token amount is 400 so far from the event pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I clearly showed a way that had nothing to do with a slot machine 🤔 The event page in the Armory only has the "Golden Week Treasures" slot machine and a bunch of options... to purchase more tokens to feed the slot machine. There are no camos (either permanent or expendable), no low-tier ships, no commanders, no bonuses, no credit stacks, no flags, no signals, no anything that can be directly purchased with the tokens. Sure, a bunch of tokens can be had for free, but that doesn't change the fact that the only thing you can do with them is gamble. All of the rewards require you to drop tokens in the slot machine to get them; the event therefore consists only of a slot machine. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aragathor Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 At least people can spend their free tokens on something. Players in Belgium get jack and WG doesn't care about offering them anything. They literally get nothing this patch, save for the pittance in the BP sans tokens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tfcas119 Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 1 hour ago, Col_NASTY said: Just curious.. Why is that? Belgium has banned lootboxes and gambling in video games, so this, and any containers that have a chance of dropping premium ships will not appear in accounts originating from Belgium. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nevermore135 Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 1 hour ago, Col_NASTY said: Just curious.. Why is that? They probably lost the entire event (including the free tokens) because WG can’t monetize the event without running afoul of Belgian gambling laws. WG can’t sell lootboxes in the country either. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And another 50 per extra battle pass stage after the 20 stages to complete the BP. Was this another difference between the two BP versions? I have the version that gives back 2,500 dubs if you buy the premium pass (which I would much rather have than a few more pulls on this slot machine).

AdmiralThunder Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 (edited) I did my free ones and got all Blue Boosts. I will take those gladly (free stuff is free stuff and Blue Boost as good free stuff) and walk away. I won't spend on this event as it is not worth it with such bad odds of a good drop.

Mono_De_Mantequilla Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 On my second pull I got this. So getting the rare 1.8% pull points me to a ship I already have, and the only compensation is ten more pulls. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a few years now I think but WG MAJORLY cheaped out for compensation for ships you already have in events etc. It's even worse than how badly they nerfed the formerly known as " Super Containers " It actually LOL when you look how much they CHARGE$ for these ships VS how much THEY think they are worth after you have it. 10 pulls for a Hayate is actually insulting. The pitance they have been giving for Dups has been just depressing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SunkCostFallacy Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 I got some decent econ bonuses from mine, and some more FreeXP. I can live with that. More interestingly ... I was just in an Asymmetric match with someone in the Chicuma and I had to resist the urge to ask if he was just really lucky or if he'd whaled to get the thing. To each their own though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue XP boosters for me. Very useful for me because I like to speed up regrinds for RB points. Very happy for the free stuff. Then I went to Asymmetric and there was a Chikuma II Golden and it was the first ship sunk by the bots. 😂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I so wish every country would follow their lead in this. Its complete BS that gaming company's are able to influence or form new gambling addicts from an incredibly young age. "Just keep spinning that wheel ...... Just keep spinning that wheel ...... Just keep spinning that wheel ...... You will soon be rewarded!!!" Its a addiction / IQ test!

I had 400 token. Received 2x 6.250 FXP and 2x blue FXP Booster. And on the third try ... a ship actually. (not the Chikuma II though). Seemed to me the counter was bugged (the spent/received token not adding up imho). Won`t spend on this event either.
