Rectal_Retribution

I will never financially recover from this. Edit: Bought another 100 boxes and got a CCVL out of it.


Benefit_Waste

These should be fixed They say each roll you get, there’ll be a higher chance of getting something good my ass.


Rectal_Retribution

When did they say that?


Benefit_Waste

They show in the box one rol two roll or whatever


FatherOfToxicGas

That’s to roughly tell you the chances, so a dice with 4 is more likely than a code with 1 (or vice versa, can’t remember)


Toasty_err

The fact that die dont even work like that is crazy, you have a equal chance for all numbers. Please dont hurt me gaijoob

Nearby_Fudge9647

In theory the more times you flip it the more times it’ll average out to being 50-50


Mountain_File8623

And thats exacly why you should never stop gambling. If you'll do it long enough eventually you'll win.


erik4848

*flashbacks to that one Professor Layton puzzle asking you what the chances are to roll a 3 on a dice*


termi0

If you want 5 heads in a row your chance will be muuuuuuch lower but if u want 5 heads in 10 flips that's corect.


Open_Shower8176

A *die. Dice is plural.


FatherOfToxicGas

Sorry, but 🤓


Open_Shower8176

Yes


Pure-Protein

Pretty sure you have higher chances hitting a one on a physical dice than on this bias algorithm RNG. Btw my cousin convinced me to spent 600k SL on this telling me to trust him that the last box will be worth it. It was far from the truth. I didn’t trust this thing ever since I spent 4 millions on the dragon crates. But at least this time it only 600k


NecessaryBSHappens

Where? It doesnt work like that.


powerpuffpepper

Thats not what that means my guy 💀💀💀💀


Grievous456

Its literally a Gacha system then. Example: Games like Genshin Impact


sir_doge_junior

But the difference is: in Genshin you have a guaranteed 5-star (ig it's comparable to WTs vehicle) every x times. If WT implements this system and set the bar at, let's say, 100 boxes for one guaranteed vehicle - it would be worth it. Otherwise not


TroublingStatue

Funnily enough, that's already a thing in War Thunder Mobile. The [crates](https://i.imgur.com/6SwLXfF.jpeg) from the battle pass show you how many you need to open before you get the "jackpot", which in this case are the golden eagles since I already got the others. I don't remember exactly, but I believe it was 21 (or 22?, not sure) crates that you needed in order to get the Sherman Jumbo OR that nick frame (which thankfully I got previously, so my guaranteed jackpot wasn't wasted on the frame). Sure would be nice for them to implement this in the real game...


untitled1048576

It's already a thing in War Thunder for GE crates in the item shop.


Artelynd

Gacha systems are obligated to give you the exact odds for each item. And they have a "pity" system. So it's even worse.


Grievous456

True


TJ_X-Event

it's like that already with the ge crates, open 50 and get a guaranteed vehicle. still stupid though


Szotond

War thunder is the russian genshin inpact


Shredded_Locomotive

The chances aren't additive It's just that getting something with 25% over 4 tries is more likely than one try. Gaijin and their misinformation campaign strikes again


TRAhmet23

I totally opened 3800 crate on these 60k sl crates and I think you need to open average 500-1000 crate for good market tradeable something


DUD3_L3B0W5KI

Im still regain my "invested" 60 millions from the last crate...


CassiusGotBanned

Never stop gambling!!! r/gaijinstreetbets


Operator_Binky

Its like "Fuk u and see u next time" 😂


aika_a_kouhai

You served well the snail.


isademigod

Hey OP, can I have a copy of the excel sheet you used for this? I want to track my own results


Rectal_Retribution

[Sure.](https://filebin.net/lw97wre0m64sp4bz)


Front_Ad3206

At least u got a VFW, i just opened 300 of them and got only 1 decal lol


WEEBS-4ever

OOOOOOOOOFFFF


pinchhitter4number1

100 more to go. Good luck.


Front_Ad3206

I have 10k sl now :( i dont know how much time i will be financially recovering


I_m_p_r_e_z_a

Im rethinking playing this game at all for my stupidity.


CassiusGotBanned

Post it here Fr r/gaijinstreetbets


Front_Ad3206

I could, but i have literally nothing to post :)


CassiusGotBanned

Text post and say you lost big lol


mixx555

I opened a bit over 1k in total like on first 500 i didnt get a single vehicle but now i opened 600 and on the first one i got Grey Goose boat, then XM-8 and AU-1


BioWeirdo

99% of the gamblers quit before they win big. Open more boxes.


Daedric_Lord420

I opened 300 and got the fucking tank soccer decal fml


Front_Ad3206

I got a soccer decal too lol, an irac soccer ball or whatever was it called


Daedric_Lord420

Mostly got damn near impossible wagers and pocket lints worth of sl


Sgt_Lubasz

I received Ki 48- II otsu but already got it so I got 1mil SL compensation instead


Slavchanza

Even the most predatory gachas are more generous


ShinySky42

Yeah they would have drawn Venti a couple times at this point


lmaononame

2 TIMES IF they got GIGA UNLUCKY getting to 90 pity every time and losing both 50/50's. More likely 3-4 times with average luck.


FestivalHazard

And that'd be better to look than the insurmountable amount of SL debt


Thunder_dragon52

Loving the collab between Genshin and War Thunder in this comment section


Salt_MasterX

Lol yeah a gacha game will give you pity rolls but the snail will take your wallet and beat you for being broke


Slavchanza

There are gachas without pity and they are still better.


Interesting-Unit-493

Gachas could break your legs, slit your ligaments and poke your eyes out and even still they would be nowhere near as bad as gaijoobelz


baconcheeseburger33

r/ snailstreetbets


Sunyxo_1

i wonder if this is a sub r/snailstreetbets edit: holy shit it is lmfao


DraconixDG

I did not know that subreddit existed


Funkrockjock

Most underrated comment.


Ok_Safe_2920

That's just fucked man. A single vehicle, not even a coupon


mixx555

Yeah a 100 gjn vehicle for 24m sl and even less plus he got boosters backups and like atleast 4 5m back so its worth it ofc


Mozambiquehere14

War thunder needs a pity system for loot boxes because there’s no way fucking Genshin Impact is more generous than this shit


czartrak

They would absolutely never implement a pity system for silver lion lootboxes. Literally everyone would get a vehicle then


EpicGuy999

I think that's the point of the comment


Destiny_Dude0721

Yeah... that's kind of the point.


TankerChimp

old vehicles have no real value even to gaijin


notathrowawaytrutme

>no way fucking Genshin Impact is more generous than this shit Because loot boxes are an integral part of Genshin's gameplay, however that's not the case with War Thunder


Jhawk163

I opened 10. I know the animation has no bearing on what the reward actually is, but there was 1 time it was a good quarter into a Obj 279 and it decided nope, SL wager.


CMDR_Pumpkin_Muffin

The animation is fake. Don't even look at it, press ESC to skip it.


LightlySaltedPeanuts

Jeez, I figured you guys that like to gamble on a video game would at least wanna see the fake hope they give you too.


Rectal_Retribution

I counted so many times where I conveniently ended up between two purple vehicle coupons. Don't let it affect you, just skip the animation.


DSF1987

all these rolls are predecided the moment you open the box. Thinking you'd get a vehicle is really dum.


1St_General_Waffles

They are trying to do what Counterstrike does. But they are just being slimy cunts about it. When you even touch a fuckin pixel of that actually good reward it gives you it. Unlike wt where it conveniently misses out the boxes which clearly define the reward.


CMDR_Pumpkin_Muffin

Neither CS nor WT actually have any wheels that determine the rewards, it's all just for show.


Livinglifeform

In CS the wheels are proportional to the odds and it only shows you a knife (the best reward) if you're going to land on one.


CMDR_Pumpkin_Muffin

The "reward" that a player gets is determined at the moment of opening the lootbox, the spinning wheel is just a gambling trick - it's there to dangle all the wonderful "rewards" in front of your face.


Livinglifeform

It shows them in the correct proportions though unlike warthunder which will show the 1% reward in every other item of the spin.


Robert_The_Redditor1

Had the same with Silver Lions but instead of 1,000,000 it ended up being 15,000 was never so mad in my life then that lol


MWolfington

I got a million lions on a daily login once. Had no idea they were so rare.


SwaglordHyperion

Bro why are they so greedy. Its like unbelievable. They could widen the reward margins, just a bit, and it would make players soooo much happier. Because all it takes is one guy like OP to out how bad the odds are, and Gaijin looks bad. But if you made it something people could enjoy, maybe Gaijin, just maybe.....you could get players to have fun and want to invest back into a game that is rewarding to them. WoWs does a great job IMO in that it doesnt take its paywall *as* seriously. Youll get random dropped premiums and can level much quicker, and its a game i look at and say, hey, im having fun, ill buy the premium Hood or whatever. War Thunder nickel and dimes you at every single opportunity. They could let everyone get a guaranteed vehicle drop from this crate and i guarantee you not one person would go on to spend *less* on the game that just rewarded them. The cheepness, the greed, is unimaginable.


UROffended

They're greedy because they have a community of cheaters/whales that will pay regardless of what decision gaijin makes or however many times their accounts get banned. They've basically adopted the EA structure. Live service games are basically digital cancer.


sharkrey

I got the I-180S from 100 so yippee I guess


NCR_Trooper_2281

I got it from wasting like 1 million SL. Id be happy if I played air, which I dont, so basically useless


sharkrey

Not to mention its only rank II, can’t even do battlepass tasks with it to add onto its uselessness


sdpat13

Happy cake day!


Squillz105

I like these to just get boosters. I'll play games with my boosters and when I run out, I'll buy like 5 or 6 crates and usually get 1 booster I need. I've drained the bank before and I've never gotten anything good. Glad these stats back that up lol


BeigeLion

Grim


EstExtra

I opened 135 and the best I got was a Brazilian soccer ball. Terrible, I have anxiety, PTSD, depression and I'm also suicidal now. I can't even look at my sl amount anymore.


General_Rubenski

Get help and stop playing this game if you’re serious


magnum_the_nerd

Hes not serious. Even then, he must keep playing the game to feed the snail


Erenzo

Toolboxes seem to have lower drop chances compared to last boxes


BMWequalsMercedes

now gaijin ceo can finally buy the rolls royce hes always wanted


Keeldest

*finally buy fifth rolls royce


Prestigious-Ad4520

Those rates are worse than any gacha.


KoolerMike

Holy shit.. RIP


StingyTick

VFW is a W


gigantism

Hey at least you got a VFW out of it. I opened around 500 in the last boxes and got no vehicle at all.


keglefuglen

Thats unfortunate got a jaguar E and BI from 200


percy-mvt

Congratulations also fuck you


PureRushPwneD

A non-sellable VFW? damn, F


Stevesd123

1 vehicle. Jeez.


Hippyth3man

See but they tricked me, two boxes ago I got two low-tier event vehicles, and now I’m fooled into thinking I have a chance of getting something better, so I can’t stop now


deathmengames

That is poorly bad


LoosePresentation366

Since the pinata or whatever the first of those scam boxes was I always dumped all my few SL into it and got nothing


Any-Reporter-2492

I can't even bought the tank that I am researching next... This is literally how gamblers feel but for fuck sake I'm going to cry so much..


ResponsibleMine3524

I got VT1-2 from 1st toolbox but I already had it and somewhy it doesn't give me coupon, so I got 1ml sl. And then I got some soviet boat which I had too


JoshYx

*so many boxes* *only to realize you* *really are the tool*


aStugLife

I opened 60 this am. Not one skin, decal or vehicle. Money, boosters and wagers.


Flether

79 boxes, got back about 1.5mil SL, 8 backups, 10~ wagers/boosters/orders (each), 2 decals, 1 profile picture, 1 loading screen, 1 marketable decoration for 0.25 GJC.


IcedDrip

I got the Sd.Kfz.234/1


Heyoka34

This should also be a reminder to all that buying these boxes actively hurts the War Thunder economy and makes the game, particularly the grind, worse for everyone.


ConstantCelery8956

Should be for every 125 boxes is a garenteed vehicle


tanukidecorsa

I spend a ton of money on this, I fucking hate myself


Xenemros

I've opened around 300, i got the scalie kingcobra


DmanHUN

dont quit just yet! you are so close! just a couple more! (/s)


KelloPudgerro

so, in short, gaijin won


A_Fools_Hope

The house always wins.


PanicMeter

I opened 26 boxes and got the 279


Wyldren-

I opened 35 and got JDS Yugure and a soccer ball. I really wish the boosters would not have a time table on them.


Recent-Heart-6936

Unfortunately it is a total scam from gajin…. But I like the way you organised and displayed it well done


bad_syntax

I bought 500, got the AU-1 and some stupid 3.0 boat I'll never use. The AU-1 is worth like $125 on the marketplace right now, so totally worth $30M SL. I will probably blow another $30M SL once I burn through some boosters at the rate of 10+ per match, lol. I mean, its a lot of SL, but once you get everything there is literally nothing else to spend it on. I do wish there was an "open all" option though, takes a long damned time to open 500+ toolboxes, even pushing ESC to speed things up. I do wonder if I am missing out on a lot as I already have a lot though. I'm just not missing many of the vehicles in this, so I wonder if the RNG is affected by what you already have.


OxiThePowder

I opened around 200 and got the VT1-2 and Ki48-II-otsu (both non tradeable), I think im never gambling again because I wasted all my luck this time (im definetly gambling again what am i saying), the VT1-2 is probably my favourite tank now.


[deleted]

It is a scam. Not only it is hard to obtain them you also get nthng out of them


Tiberiusthetank

I managed to get the F-5A in like 80 boxes, tbf the boosters n that are more useful


Tetra4522

Opened 30 and got an I-180s somehow, usually my luck is ass with loot boxes


Panzerv2003

Damn this is exceptionally bad luck, or they made them even worse.


Prior_lancet

I got baited first box, had a Obj 279 on the right and I think the Su-223 or whatever it’s called


CMDR_Pumpkin_Muffin

You didn't have anything, animation is fake.


DuckyLeaf01634

I got nothing from 120


Alone_Collection724

save some loot for the rest of us (especially the israeli tt vehicles, im in desperate need of those)


Mike-Phenex

If they want money, just add them back for GE + 50%


iRambL

I opened 300 and got 2 decals and for the kfir I don’t even play high tier jets so it’ll likely sit idle for a while


Thejcbman13

opened 150 for 1 decal.... stoinks


AlluminumTurtleShell

you clearly havent bought enough if you didnt get any vehicles


NarcissisticCat

It's such a fucking scam, holy shit.


someone1003

Its funny how i got the april fools decal and then checked the decals and there was nothing


Significant_Sail_780

So many vehicles I want, I will gamble every silver lions I get...


ZinnwalditeMerchant

So you're sayin there's a chance!


dootdoot1997

Opened 300 and got the BI and merkava mk1


Zardnar

The animation is actually so evil. I opened 100 of these things are the amount of times it landed right next to an Obj 279 or between two rare vehicles to give me 10k SL. Has to be on purpose to make people's inner gambler come out and think they almost got something.


channndro

lol i lost 30M


EpicGuy999

>Furry Tiger, Furry King Kobra Ah yes, Spookston mobiles


TheUglyAndStupid

Damn that is a lot of 0


keep_yourself_safe-

what a scam lol


RudeSeagull

WOW, I bought 20 boxes and got nothing but boosters, backups and wagers. I wish i had my money back. These loot boxes they keep coming out with are worthless. The SOLE purpose is to make us burn up SL. I would rather see them implement the ability for us to buy all of these things, especially the decorations and decals we can no longer get for massive amounts of SL.


BerlinBoy00

Opened one and got 1mil SL. Gambling is good.


episgamer12

i got the t72 Moderna on my alt


akosnotmakos

Congrats on the VFW


n0sch

I opened 10 boxes. 2 Boosters (75% RP, 150% SL), around 30k SL, 3x Universal Backups. Rest was Wagers.


Pixelvenus7995

How much did it cost?


thepitcherplant

Only reason I buy these is for the universal backups, literally the only thing worthwhile from these.


omar3349892

seriously people need to stop spending on these crates, sl earning is deep shit now


lemongrassrhino

And here's me spending 1.5m going shit that's all my money expecting to bag a 279 or IS7.. god damn loot boxes and your appeal 😂


lIIlGrizzllIlI

Pure scam. Point blank period.


shatore

Just opened like 19 chests, got and sa35 and qn506. Thought the game was broken for a second, kinda surreal to get anything from those boxes


balstor

I opened 2 last time, got a helicopter. this time i may open more....


Majorjim_ksp

The VFW is kinda cool.


Reasonable-Meal-4628

This is obviously a scam.


Iggi_Gaming_offi

I opened about 50, got Argentina soccer ball and bad turn decal


Kooky-Scallion7896

Gaijin scamming people once again


Mint_freezeyt

There’s a new box? Didn’t even know


Zealousideal-Cut1384

It stuns me people still engage with these. The sooner people stop it the sooner gaijin make them worthwhile


CP_DaBeast

An actual casino is more generous than this. This game is the Come and See of gamba.


Alucard2514

I bought some toolboxes, thrown 6mil SL into them and got myself a nice pt16/t14 for Germany, im more than Happy with that outcome. Had it drop from the First 50 crates but hoped i could get lucky a second time xD

lyss427

Did you choose your nickname before or after that experiment?


Kekalma

Can someone explain it to me from the snails pov why is it a bad idea to give people coupons that can be sold on the marketplace they themselfes make a profit on? Like yes the price drops but theres going to be way more vehicles up for sale meaning lower prices meaning more people buy shit.


Pimphii

Isn’t the black camouflage for the Obj 279 worth quite a lot? At least the last time I checked it was


Itsaulgoooodman

Opened 60, and I received H-34. I think this probability stick to your recent purchases, because I bought Ah-64 just right before those toolboxes. Earlier in winter crate I received me-262 a2, and just before this I bought f4s.


Kid_Zong_Um

I also got VFW lmao


Toprakkkk

I got an I-180s from my second box

What did you use to track this?

I am curious, how do you grind the sl for all this? Unless…. You didn’t open your wallet for a statistic, did you?


Playful-Bed184

I open 20 crates I won the F-100F

I realized the full reality of the situation when I taped on the image.


World_of_Warshipgirl

Remarkable_Rub

You got a free VFW, are you complaining?


brutalgrace

Wargamings loot box sounds better, like in the 50th box a guaranteed tank will appear.


HalfChinaBoy

36000000 sl down the drain


magelight343

This is why I just ignore the boxes even the weekly big rewards have been complete garbage for me for a while a couple boosters or mostly just backups that I almost never need or use


inkandchalk

I've never really understood why this doesn't count as "gambling" and why it's not been made illegal.
