000 Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 (edited) So this morning I purchased my first and LAST set of loot crate keys. I spent 12.00 USD for x5 Loot Crate Keys and this is what I received for my real money. It also specifies that if you receive multiple items you can sell them on the market. However, the market is not working. I will be submitting screenshots, I received: 2x Troll Shirts 2x Unicorn Shirts 1x Bieber Shirt First and last time.... Hope this saves some of you money! https://gyazo.com/d7b881f5c1d03ed883808fc6aee731fe https://gyazo.com/ee46ecd53836d3b105c06b96979acd60 https://gyazo.com/12e5506bafc867c5e98e9763cdca3eb2 https://gyazo.com/6526e4032e115902ecbd5607f93a90a4 https://gyazo.com/29d59a5c5bb7c5eed530865bb95c4a31 Edited February 16, 2017 by Go0gle_Th1$ JIMBO likes this Link to comment

raty294 Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Multiple items turn into extra credits to use on the Asylum website. With these extra credits you can buy another crate key. Either way, it isn't very cool to post screenshots for getting common items out of the pool and telling people not to donate. There are some people who have gotten purple rate items on their first crate. You donated to the server, which is great, but if you want guaranteed results donate directly to the server (not buying crate keys) and get the guaranteed donation results instead of skins.

000 Posted February 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 I would agree that its a good concept to have an item market that you can use credits. However, this system is not currently working.... I was already a donor level 3 before loot crate keys were even created. I was hoping they created a new exciting way to get items, but it seems the odds are not very good. Link to comment

KIIAK Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 It's just like CSGO cases you win some you loose some does not mean you go ranting telling people not to donate to the site by buying the keys you are donating to the Asylum to keep it running Link to comment

000 Posted February 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 I'm not telling people to not donate, I'm telling people not to buy loot crate keys to get items like a combat helmet or CSAT... If the odds are not fixed, why chance spending $50+ on keys for an item you may actually never receive. Gnashes even just stated it works with a "Random Number Generation"... With this method its completely possible that you can receive an item over and over and over again... So if the odds are not clearly established how can one say what the odds are at a given time....

Gambling is the wagering of money or something of value (referred to as "the stakes") on an event with an uncertain outcome with the primary intent of winning money and/or material goods.

The odds are very clearly established. You will have an (x)% chance to unlock each item, each time you use a key. That chance does not change for successive "rolls". Link to comment
bigjohn561 Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Yea.... I would NOT buy them if I'm only doing it for the advantage the skin gives... it's kinda pay to win atm but it will get fixed soon. (Or forced to fix) Link to comment

raty294 Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Even if the market is operating, who wants to buy your green quality items that everyone already has?? You would maybe get 3 cents for selling those really neat Troll and Unicorn shirts. Link to comment

You got something in return didn't you? It would be different if you spent 2.50 for a key and got nothing at all. Because that is what the Act that you just spent time out of your day to find entails. If this act were true, you wouldn't be able to play CS:GO, World of Warcraft, and many other games that have loot crates where you roll to get items. Patato likes this Link to comment

Cynica Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 So it's going to be one of those threads I see. Well, here we go... Personally, I disagree with the current odds for the price of the keys. Under no circumstance should someone pay over 100$ to get an item on a private community, yet some people pay double or triple that price. I understand that you can't lower the price now because everyone would complain that they bought it at a higher price and deserve to be compensated but it's still ludicrous. Link to comment
raty294 Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 There is no wagering here because you aren't losing all your money and getting nothing in return, you are just dissatisfied with what you recieved. If you dislike what you recieved, boohoo. Link to comment

Donutkiller Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 You seem like someone who doesn't understand how this works. You are no gambling your money, you are physically buying keys. Is there a percentage chance that you have for when you spend money to buy the keys that you may or may not get the keys. No, there isn't, you will get the keys 100 percent of the time. Now, the keys are used for a crate, that has a percentage chance to to get each specific item. Which means, you aren't gambling you're money, you are simply using the keys for a crate, if this was illegal, sue every single game that does this. Which is a shit ton of games, good luck.
