Same, I just played a few matches and forgot how frickin annoying it is. I forgot that even using the moffet or frank knox, you can get an assist after killing most of enemy crew and still only get 300 SL
Still,even if you prefer playing at middle tiers and don’t have all of the event vehicles there,getting one from these boxes has the same chances of getting another one or getting nothing basically.
For anyone that says “But the chances”: Yes,Gaijin added the chances of getting said rewards, but not the exact amount (only the Obj. 279). It is mandatory for them to add a “chance number” publicly available, otherwise they would break the first EU law regarding gambling. They did the minimum,so unless they’re gonna publish the exact,unbiased and super-documented chances for every reward in these chests,every vehicle has the same chance of getting picked
Awesome! I’d love to have this thing too! Congratulations and thanks for sharing.

See,that is what i was talking about
Someone spends 72 million to get this vehicle (and others),someone will spend 1.8 million. These boxes are a complete joke

Happy for you - 125 boxes and also this VFW thing.
Still useless as i can’t sell it as pure xbox user.
I spend over 100m in the last 5 rounds (as a pure Air RB pilot) and received:
- 1 useless UK tank A.C. Mk I
- 1 useless IT boat MC 590
- 1 useless jet F4D1 (event jet i already owned)
- 1 useless RU prop i owned already (Po-2 M)
- 1 the Yak-3T at 5.0
- and now this VFW thing.
…and, ofc, hundreds of extremely useless back-up vouchers - 727 now…
So even as i invested access SLs (i have everything i want to play) i still miss a kind of trading platform without money (in order to circumvent this block by MS and Sony for consoles).
I would have no problem to trade the stuff above for a Fw 190 C and/or Ki-94 plus a PV-2D - fully aware of that they are not easy to use in Air RB, but in test flights they responded very good to the input of my HOTAS, so from a pilot perspective they would be nice to have…
Edit: Another 25 boxes - so now 150: Nothing.
Edit II: Another 25 = 175 this round: Nothing.

At least you got multipule decent vehicles, even if you already owned them
Okay so,first of all thank you for ordering the vehicles you got by Nation,it helped me a lot
Then,3 of your vehicles are not listed in the Marketplace (MC 590,AC I and Yak-3T),so their value can’t be properly described (it varies between 0 and ∞)
The F4D,the VFW and the Po-2M all add to a grand total of 141$ ca. At the time of writing
You spent approx 9mil SL (not counting the partial refund). Even here,if we assume you earn 1 million SL an hour,and you spent 9 hours grinding those 9mil,your payout today with these boxes is 15.7 $/hr
Which is almost triple the amount of my previous example,and is more in line with what the chances of a well-rigged gambling system should be
Still,keep in mind the usual thing: there may be people that “earned” your same amount with less or more SL spent,so it is definitely not chance based.
So after reading this thread I decided to gamble for the first time with this mechanic, and out of 350 toolboxes I got a full load of crop and only one vehicle that I already had (the 2.0 pansarbil m/40…). Still have 100M SL to spare but… never again. I had some fun stacking the super-duper boosters that expire in two days though, so there’s that.

I’ve opened a few and got a t72 moderna…for which I’ve got a million as I already had it from it’s own event. And then ki-48. Big sad.
Spent 6 million sl and got a stupid profile pic, but a crap load of boosters and bets that i will never use
21 million SL for 15 dollars worth of a vehicle,which makes your payout a staggering drum roll 0,70$/hr!!!
The poorest country in the world probably has a better payout than this lmao. That’s why i repeat:these boxes are only good for the plethora of boosters you’ll receive
It’s a game of chance. You shouldn’t gamble if you’re not prepared to lose. The probability of winning something is low. Very low!
The thread here is not intended to suggest otherwise. My point here is simply to rejoice with those who have been lucky instead of constantly complaining about bad luck.
Just be happy for others. I’m not constantly rubbing other people’s noses in how shit I think Toptier is. Live and let live … it’s not difficult.

That’s the main reason why I try these lootboxes, to get the T-72M2 Moderna for “free”. Happened the same on the previous lootboxes, got a few vehicles that I already own, so I ended with the 1M SL instead.
Box no. 70 - straight to account the A-7K.

So far I opened ~50 boxes and got a decal and that Russian boat, which I already had.
In addition I got a handful of lions back, some wagers and loads of boosters, which unfortunately have a time limit and can’t be stacked without losing efficiency…
