'SUPERCONTAINERS"

[InsaneLyouS0]

for the love of god would u remove the special upgrades from the superconteiner drops plz 

first of all super containers are rare and when u final get one and its  really nerve wrecking to get the useless special upgrades so plz do a separate choice if u want the chance  to actually get one 

thank u for understanding

One of the WORST features of this game since they removed the good 250 flag packs and introduced this aberration.

 

My last 4 supercontainers have been filled with this underwhelming POS.

I keep picking try your luck containers because I have only 3 engine boost mod.1s. I hope they don't remove the special upgrades any time soon. I'm pretty sure there aren't many of the useless upgrades left because I got like 15 or so of them. A couple of weeks picking try your luck containers and there will be only engine boost mods left to get . That is how it works,right? Plz tell me I'm right...

I HAVE NOT HAD A SUPER CONTAINER FOR 5 MONTHS

Don't mind a special upgrade but when I'm T4-5 and the game proudly tells you you have won a module that can only be used on T9-10 its a bit like opening your birthday present as a kid hoping you'll get the action man with the Kung Fu grip that you have been asking for to find your parents have decided you need to get in touch with your artistic side and present you with a 140 piece art set.

Just a few minutes after I wrote this I got another Supercontainer. Now I'm not sure if I want to open it .

You do realise you have the option to sell it from you inventory for credits

 

Don't understand people sometimes, get an in game freebee and they still complain

I've collected pretty much consistently all 3 daily containers the last few months.

Occasionally I didn't play for a day or I only collected 1 or 2 SCs, but those are rare exceptions.

Since patch 0.6.1 (February 9th) when they added the upgrades to the supercontainers I've gotten I think 1 or 2 Free XP containers (which is nice, as I'm saving for Missouri) and probably over 10 "Upgrades"...

I started video capturing the opening of Supercontainers. Since May 31st I've gotten 8 of them and all have been "upgrades"...

I reached Rank 3 in Ranked Battles season 6 so I got a few of them from there as well.

 

Currently in my inventory I have:

1x Surveillance Radar Modification 1 (I think actually bought this as reward during the Fire vs Water event, since I failed to get enough for the Kamikaze)

2x Damage Control Party Modification 1 (1 from Ranked)

2x Hydroacoustic Search Modification 1 (1 from Ranked)

3x Smoke Generator Modification 1 (1 from Ranked)

4x Spotting Aircraft Modification 1 (1 from Ranked)

6x Defensive AA Modification 1 (1 from Ranked)

 

Mounted on ships:

2x Engine Boost Modification 1 (1 from Ranked)

 

So that totals 20.

 

I don't remember if I've gotten any more of them from weekly missions or other events, but at least 7 of them were from ranked/rewards.

That means I've gotten around 13 of them from supercontainers. Maybe minus 1 or 2 if I got some from other missions or events (don't remember), but definitely more than 8 since I have video of those 8 and I know for sure I got some of them before I started capturing opening of SCs...

 

The Engine Boost is actually a decent option, and I'm sure a couple others may be useful for certain builds, but the amount popping up in the supercontainers is just ridiculous.

Sure, they sell for 625k, but I could also play a couple of matches in my Atago or Kutuzov if I needed 625k credits.

Supercontainers are rare so they shouldn't give you what you can gather from a couple of matches (if "but you can always sell them" is the rationale for keeping them in the SCs). It's not the "special occasion" it shold be.

And yes, "freebies" are nice, but when the freebies get worse it's natural to complain.

I'm sure even the "freebies are nice, don't complain"-people would complain if the supercontainer gave you 1 credit, even though it's still a freebie.

[SyntheticMan]

oops double post

[Flid_Merchant]

I find the hydro and radar mods useful, and smoke on RN cruisers. I got about 5 supercontainers when I started playing again a couple months back and bugger all since then, couple of spotter mods. I'm sure the first few are rigged to make them seem more common and useful than they actually are. And I think I would actually lol if I opened a supercontainer and it contained one credit.

 

I'd like to see some more mid-range containers introduced. More common than SCs but not as great loot. The mods could go in here, or they could have a small amount of special flags like dragon or hydra, or type 6 camos.

Well radar mods maybe, but f.e. engine boost you can use from T6 on certain ships, so you are somewhat in error here. And there are lots of ships - I bought 3 engine boosts in the Kamikaze campaign (COTE).

It was the Defensive fire 2 mod I think game said only usable on T9 and 10, but I'm a noob so dont really know.

I was being sarcastic. I sold it for 650k so I was actually quite happy.

 

And yes it's all free stuff so why do we need to complain about it.

We do not complain about free stuff!

 

Some time ago we had usefull signal containers and usefull super containers. The value of the signal containers was reduced by around 60% (less signals, heavy loss of free XP, useless credits as replacement) and the value  of super containers dropped by around 95% (no nore signals and the standard SC nowadays brings a habdfull of useless credits). In exchange the drop rate of SC was announced to raise by 50%, which never happened as everyone knows.

 

THAT is what the complains are about!

Haha I've probably handed those [edited] £300 in the last 2 months so I think I do deserve some free stuff actually lol.

It's still free stuff...... Stuff that is given to you out of the goodness of War Gaming's heart. You don't deserve or are entitled to more free stuff just because the free stuff isn't what you want it to be (a free premium ship I imagine).

 

You still get good free stuff in the standard containers. Be greatful for what you are given.

 

Never heard of "don't bite the hand that feeds you" ?

 

Bloody socialists and communists everywhere who think everything should be just given to them for free and paid for by the people who have more wealth.

[meyos90]

I think its more complaining about how unfair it is rather than complaining that you get containers.

Imagine you get 10m credits in a SC. It makes you happy, doesn't it?

Then imagine your friend gets a Belfast (or some other premium ship). How would that make you feel?

These containers are all just a big gamble and having bad/disappointing contents like those upgrades isn't making the situation better.

[Fat_Maniac]

Let's face it, it's all free stuff. It's actually quite a good marketing strategy. Hand out some free samples to tempt you to spend gold or cash to buy silver when you find some of the stuff you get is actually useful to your play style.

Like everything some things you like others don't, but it's free so we can't really complain.

[Spuggy]

Boofuckinghoo. My Super Container wasn't as good as someone elses. I have zero sypmpathy. The world isn't fair.

 

 

 

 

[mikelight1805]

I think i have had 3 super containers so far. The last two i had were a port slot and a hydro upgrade. I really don't care! i didn't loose anything, so why cry about it?

Oke it is free stuff, but saying it is out of the goodness of War Gamings heart goes way to far. I can asure you that WG doesn't give anything away without a good reason.  They just wants you to play longer and more often as you had originaly planned. 

 

And where does that "don't bite the hand that feeds you " come from ?. As far as I know , we are the (potential) paying customers. So if this remark is valid it should be pointed to WG.
