[quote=“eclipsedHouse;168011”]How is there no substantive response from the game developers on this…it’s dumbfounding.
Event is 5 days in, thread has been open for 4 days…the weekend is over…what other excuse is there.
Either explain why people are wrong, or acknowledge the mistake and fix it.[/quote]
This is a better event for me than the ReV event
Wow and I thought I was pissed… But honestly guys, how some are acting here is beyond me. I dont wanna see you, when its about something important IRL
Just… stay with us here, ok? Yes, yes, we’ve all invested time and/or money here, maybe even our hearts, but c’mon guys. Raising our voices will get their attention, but being immature about your feelings will not keep them listening.
Yeah yeah, you want cards from this week. I assure you plenty of people, including me, do too. If you’re getting so burned by this situation I advise you take a second to look at just how worked up you’re getting. You can be invested, but don’t care too much. Don’t let it take you over.
Yes, in the grand scheme of things, special load outs in a video game is insignificant.
I’m not even really angry at the mistake…shit happens…the lack of response from the company is the worst part…it’s bad business.
Just like any other product or service you buy…if a small issue arises and you make the provider aware of it, and they ignore you, suddenly the small issue becomes a bigger irritant.
Update came live, 10 boosters bought 2 games i got a event case… since then 0/1/4 boosters and probably about 100 hours ingame and no fucking event case…
bought 10 Elite Case and 5 Elite Cases: 3 Naders and 3 Proxie all useless… fuck me even more
Some people might be overreacting but this is honestly just stupid, there’s no way that these boosters work as advertised. I have played this game very regularly since July 2015 and there hasn’t been a single day where I don’t get a few cases just for playing normally, yet playing with 7, then later 8 boosters since Wednesday has gotten me nothing at all. These boosters are clearly NOT linearly stacking up to the same chance as a regular case upon amounting to 10, having 8 boosters should have most definitely gotten me something in a day or 2.
Is there any chance the boosters are working on normal cases instead of event cases? Since I applied my 4 boosters I am getting an ordinary case almost every game. Never had so many in my entire time playing Dirty Bomb.
Definitely no. They should dissapear after a case is dropped when you have boosters equipped. Unless they are SO unfinished that they dont dissapear.
@RazielWarmonic Thanks for always trying to look out for us. Glad to see you are feeling better. 
They disappear after you get an event case yes. I said normal cases lol. Maybe it is bugged and works on normal cases but keeps them since it’s a normal case.
Hell… Maybe thats the case, but i dont know shit. So i can just go and say that kinda makes sense.
Pun intended btw
Same thing here. Blizzard might have been turning to much casual, yes. But at least they are honest, at least most of the time since the WoW/Dalaran-cpu-desaster, about their goals. Customers and casuals, don’t really care about people that made them great, and so on.
I guess, all of you are able to remember this question, if you would recommened Dirty Bomb to someone, when closing the game?
My answer, after this weekend/livestrem, for sure, is no.
Wtf. Would I really recommend some game, where two of the three server co-locations <50 ping (for me) are on the edge of the .eu (maidenhead and stockholm) and are also laggy and most of the time even loosing packets even out of germany? (Yes…, I guess the bankers will have to do their backups on the cheap connections somewhen…)
WTF? Not even a beta is at first some excuse to use bad servers AND secondly telling “your” customers/people about something, that has to be paid somehow, is lowering your chances to get the thing they want even more, as the stats here and your excuse “working as intended” are obviously showing.
Either you don’t take your playerbase serious or … at least… “share the stuff you are smoking”?!
PS: Not even mentioning the concerns some of us had about phantom and the april-fools-joke you did on that.
Did people fall for that? Jeez… Sometimes people just need to pay attention to the date. But also with a game like this, teasing something like that shouldent happen. Maybe a joke event (where anything spent is refunded) that would be fine.
Why am I not even surprised lol.
Pretty much what they have done with every update lol.

Nope, more than probably expected a hoax(pityfully), since I am playing this game/following their/his “w2b”-announcements/changes nearly a year. And yes, pity for the rest really having payed hard money for boosters/skins/whatever.
Ps: But on their defense, nobody could have seen the problems they got on the Batman?Thingy… right… because usually they keep what they promise… I guess.
So another 8 hours playing today with now 8 boosters, got no event case.
But she’s all good right m8? Working as intended??

Im absolutely with you in the matter - I also think that something is wrong and I do feel bad about it. I just dont like the way, how some of us are turning this into their personal crusade with burning houses and corpses along the way.
Not sure what makes me more sad. That my video game hobby is not working the way I expected or that there are people out there behaving like this and we gotta share a planet together.
@FireWorks It’s not just about boosters not working. First off, the first week of this event is almost coming to an end, and people who want loadouts for this weeks mercs are starting to be nervous and want their voices to be heard, because they have no fair chance of getting one of the event cases.
More importantly though, the way this matter is being handled simply is an insult to dedicated players who have spent hours trying to get their cards. They treat us like we are the dumb players who don’t understand the basic concepts of RNG and are just a salty bunch of idiots.
If what they had advertised was even half way true, there are probably a dozen people in this thread alone who should have gotten a case with more than 99.9% probability, considering the amount of boosters and time played. But yeah, it’s just bad luck …
I want compensation for this, but more importantly I demand a public apology for treating the players like a bunch of idiots.
