Any clarification at all what this will include.
If quafe vehicles are a "rare item" for example I know I can continue my strike on strongbox keys. |

What constitutes a 'rare' item? Officer & BPOs?

At this case 'meta level' of item. Probably 8-10 +

please define rare item, or give example of rare items.
ex. rare item = officer dropsuit or weapon
ex. rare item = bpo dropsuit or weapon
ex. rare item = the usual stuff that we get
please clarify.

this seems to indicate a minimum number. That would point to BPOs not being on that potential table. Or you'd get 10 BPOs. This seems a bad idea.
Or is this ten potentially different drops chosen randomly from the rares?

Yoo, a buddy of mine bought 70 strong box keys. Out of that amount of boxes he opened, he got nothing in regards to a BPO dropsuit or weapon. He was pissed. Lol.

Ok, so I try again
1-9 will be the same chances of items that you have been getting from the strongbox. The tenth item will be a rare drop, as defined by us but usually something either unpurchaseble in market or officer. I was told we have a rare omega booster we have never used.
So the value of 10 keys will be sum of 9 normal items from strongbox plus the tenth item. This is to make sure that you don't get unlucky and get 10 batches of aur gear, we do want to guarantee some top level gear.
On the other hand, you might get really lucky and a few of the 1-9 are rare, and the tenth will still be rare!

That's why we are trying to improve the experience by doing this. It won't guarantee bpo drops, but increase the chance quite considerably.

So basically you are confirming that this guarantee includes quafe vehicles, turrets, and plain old officer weapons?? Sorry, I think I will stick to not buying keys.
Hopefully you guys will figure this out some day. |

TBH, I think they are figuring out this Free to Play model...
What I have seen in the past 6 months is an incredible change in policy from CCP.
Before they took the BPO's off the market and then tried to push over priced Basic and Advanced AUR BPC packs.
Most of the packs would last one weekend if you are a very casual player and cost 20 bucks.
Now packs have proto and advanced weapons, suits and modules and have price points of 5 or 10 dollars USD and you will be hard pressed to work through all the gear in 3-4 days of casual play time (1-3 hours a day).
LP BPO's available, and a free Key every day if you win one match...
Now we have warbarges that produce officer gear daily and an AUR login in bonus coming.
Not to mention the great drop rate of AUR gear and suits in the end of match now... (really helping the new guys cover massive losses they have by letting them run some free basic and even partly adv/proto fits).
Daily missions dropping anything from a basic tank to side arms and logi suits...
You help out the broke neck beards... they bring their buddies who are willing to pay a bit to play catch up...
All great ways to introduce players to AUR and LP gear, encouraging players to buy products so that the game can continue.
The last missing piece here is Lore Based events that coincide with EVE events to increase IMMERSION which of course drives brand loyalty and sales.
Get guys hooked on the storyline and lore of the game and they will sink further down the rabbit hole.

This is as I thought you meant, but it's always good to be certain. I think you guys are getting the AUR thing balanced out quite a bit better than originally.
Now please increase box drops to 15-25%.
I would like bawkses to go with the keys I have gathered.

What companies need to understand is that free to play can be done without gambling. Gambling functions just harbor agitation and frustration in the playerbase while the devs/publisher roll around in money.
If gamble boxes have to be a thing, they should be beneficial and free. They should be extra rewards and incentives to players that ADD to their inventories without forcing one to pay unbelievable amounts of money for them.
And yet there are idiots that still buy keys en masse and throw a tantrum when the system screws them (as it was designed). Stop buying these damned things, you morons...

I often get 6, 10, or occasionally even more strongboxes in a given set of daily missions, while I only infrequently get keys other than the one win per day. I never go out of my way to fulfill the strongbox missions, since I have about 100 more boxes than keys at the moment. |
