TOPIC: Fix the odds of the wheel please.

Fix the odds of the wheel please. 6 years 6 months ago #736417

Alright. So I can understand that the new fire case is not meant to be something you get every 10 spins or sth. But from what I heard the odds of even getting one out of it are ridiculous. From personal experience I've already spent 6M gems and did not get a single one of them. Heard other peoples say they spent 12M+ gems without getting one.

I know some peoples farmed ridiculously high ammount of gems and because of that the odds need to be made so you can't just easily get the case. But if even after 10M you don't get a single one of the other cases what even is the point?

It doesn't even provide a fair chance for new users to get new stuff because it takes 10k gems for a single spin, which arguably is " hard " for a new player. And given there's like 50-60% chance to get either the booby prize, the ghost or some shitty ammount of cash like 50k it just isn't even remotely worth it to do it.

And if its not worth doing it, then what even is the point of making the main thing of the update being a gem slot machine?

Yea, I don't get why they have 2 bad things in the wheel. Rotten shit ain't useful. You just puke and lose health.
The Ghost just removes stuff from your inventory which forced me to bank every single item.

I went from 58m gems to like 2m and I haven't recieved a single fire box, not one. Only thing i've gotten is a few bp cases, wep cases, 100 rotten shit and a million ghosts.

Odds are insanely trash.

I get it, it's a way to fix the amount of gems but like..
You don't get anything profit from it, so why even have the wheel even.. At least remove the rotten things and add something else...

Im not expecting this to be ez pz profit money.
But Im expecting this to at least give you shit from time to time. But right now the odds are even worse than the cash case or the item'o'matic. Ask around how many gems have been used already, how many spins and how many fire boxes they got so far.

This is not just me being unlucky. This is litteraly everyone.

blocked beat you to it


either way even if you do manage to get a fire case the odds of getting a suit is so low (i spent 15 of them with no suit). Either the odds are broken or it's just lower than getting a nice on csgo.

No thats exactly what he was talking about it being random each time you spin there is a random probability for the item you get, its a complelty random chance. This is how most online games calculate for games like these as it allows the most fair option as every spin is random. Its a slot machine after all, it works like it does in real life just not as drastic odds on the jackpot.

If I'm not wrong, the odds scale on the amount of gems that exist within the economy. Your best bet is to wait until the end of the update to spin.

We can manually adjust the odds based on the total amount of gems in the economy. But thats generally calculated once at the start of the update and not really changed unless it really needs to be.
