[CIRC] RubyCookies [CIRC] Players 40 posts 3,938 battles Report post #1 Posted March 3, 2018 Does anyone else get that feeling of dread when they receive a SC? (The rare times that RNG decides to give you one) Feels like all I get is Zulu Hotel signals from them now I sold 500 of them a while ago and I still have too many of them, hell I use them every game and they still keep going up from missions and such I wish they would change how signals are awarded from SC's for example, if a player already has a butt load of them in their inventory then maybe award them another type of signal flag... 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EmilyFara Players 1,091 posts 2,423 battles Report post #3 Posted March 3, 2018 The only things I get is either flags I don't use our camo I don't use our speed boost mod that I don't use. I still pick the try my luck container, but more because I don't need anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[BLITZ] principat121 Modder 6,023 posts 11,475 battles Report post #4 Posted March 3, 2018 With the christmas convoy containers I got 3x 180 days of premium (anong others)! Quite lucky. This year I got THREE Supercontainers so far! Guess what I need the least and what was inside?! Right Premium time! 1.SC: 14 days of premium 2.SC: 7 days of premium 3.SC: 7 days of premium And like aboomination, I do not have a radar modul too. Or a speed boost modul.

[BYOB] Aragathor Players 7,047 posts 32,326 battles Report post #5 Posted March 3, 2018 I always like when an SC drops. I never know what's inside. My recent SCs included 50x Gamescom camos, 100 India Yankee, and a Krispy Kreme just as I was thinking about buying one. I'm hoping that I will get some upgardes from them, as I really need a smoke mod and a hydro mod for my Perth and Lo Yang respectively. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There was a time when SCs were really underwhelming. Since then, however... - special upgrades were made less common - buffs and changed slots made it so most upgrades are somewhat viable - I think credit SCs were mae less common too (not sure about this one) Sure, depending on what you need (and what you have too much of) many SCs won't be very exciting, but they're ok-ish now. They're not as big of a thing as they were when first introduced, but they're better than a standard container at least, with very few exceptions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dCK_Ad_Hominem Players 1,176 posts 5,859 battles Report post #8 Posted March 3, 2018 Haven't had one in ages despite playing a lot lately.

[BONUS] Hedgehog1963 [BONUS] Beta Tester 3,211 posts 14,951 battles Report post #9 Posted March 3, 2018 Yeah.... I got one at random from picking more signal and camo containers (I always do). Fifty Halloween camos. Seems a bit like kissing your sister... I wish I could get the speed boost extender instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[2DQT] RUSSIANBlAS Players 8,241 posts Report post #12 Posted March 3, 2018 I got two SC in a row and both were Hydro modules last week. No idea of the odds of that Thing is I've already got enough. Z52 and Yang are the only 2 ships that really need it so I've got surplus. Could put it on stuff like Belfast, DoY or buy a GZ when she's released and go full R***rd mode 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have premium camo on all the ships I like to play. And I don't play battleships, so flags for those ships are useless to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bortasqu Beta Tester 939 posts 14,845 battles Report post #17 Posted March 3, 2018 At least you guys don't have 4-5 plane spotter mods from SC only. And I've never gotten a ship from SC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Getting 2-3 of them daily makes signal troubles go away. No, the exception is not on the standard container side, almost any SC is better than almost any signal container. The exception is an SC with a) a signal pack of a signal flag (almost) never use and have a thousand or more in stock b) credits if you swim in these otherwise c) a module you never use (the plane upgrade or please-mess-up-my-smoke one that's an upgrade only for Perth) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Estaca_de_Bares Players 1,534 posts 25,837 battles Report post #20 Posted March 3, 2018 When the containers were introduced I got 500 Juliet Charlie signals, which I think I've spent but still have 200-ish received via ranked seasons, detonations and other containers IIRC. I've also noticed that I've obtained loads of camos and other signals that have helped me developing captains and ships, and even the required doubloons for acquiring Saipan and Missouri just at the best moment. I have a method for the containers: I accumulate 30 of those with consumables, then switch to TYL until I've spent all the damage controls. Funnily enough, SC usually appear during the gathering, not when throwing the dice. Salute. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sure they might be underwhelming , but are you serious? Selling Zulu Hotel? Who says no to extra captain XP boost? I have 700 in stock but I gladly take more to use in captain grinding. You have 1780 games and should have plenty of captains in need for extra training. It is a completely bad move from your side, one move that you must promise never to do again.
