    Plethora of FREE crates

    Another glitch caused a number of free crates to many BIG Levels.
    It will only make them more stronger.

          No just a major screw up and now they are shutting down what looks like all Lt activities.

            It will be VERY interesting to see how this is handled....

            This could be the �event’ needed for me to log off for good.

              Yeah i think they might try and reverse this and take away the lieutenants that were gained from rolling holloween crates. Will probably be alot of work but considering the huge amount of lieutenants that were given away they might think its worth it. Im torn because in a way im like yeah! Some friends got hooked up but then i drink that haterade and think of all the non friends that got hooked up. Not sure if they can or will fix it but id imagine they shiut down lieutenant activities so people wouldnt fuse them away and make it harder to reverse.

                But if this error was due to ... let’s say an �oversight’. What’s to prevent a similar occurance when trying to reverse the results?

                  Well im by no means knowledgeable in how any of this works but i dont think it would be very easy to reverse. If there is some sort of activity log generated by the game id assume it would include when crates are used. The rewards probably wont be resent, they might be able to write some code that looks for the use of Halloween crates. Then they run the search from the time they sent rewards to the time they shut down thier use. Then you would have to go through and identify what lieutenants were rewarded and delete those from the players inventory. Anyone that used em to fuse up other stuff will probably benefit from the glitch because those lieutenants wont be there to take. Or it might trigger some sort of error code that would have to be investigated on a case by case basis. Either way it seems pretty labor intensive. Maybe they could just identify how many crates were actually given for free and reward everyone with the difference. That would at least be fair and would seem to require less work. But like i said i dont know how any of this stuff works.

                    I think we’re talking thousands of rolled crates here, possibly tens of

                      Assuming that they run backups continuously throughout the day like any other game developer, all they would have to do is a rollback to sometime after the event ended and before the prizes were given out. Again, this is assuming that they run continuous back ups. With these guys, who knows....

                          The only thing that worries me is I used the extra tokens I had left after the event to do crate rolls I did one 3x crate roll and finally got Overkill LT and fused my legit earned epics into her. After which I used 20 tokens to do some missions and bosses and got some boss items. What if they roll it back and I loose that progress or those lts or one of the steel kraken items I finally got from those bosses this is gonna be a hard task for the devs and if not played right will upset a lot of player base. I understand there was a glitch but let’s hope they do this right....

                              Whats done is done, wish i was that lucky to have free crates. Dont think that many were fast enough to open more than 10 crates anyways. Plus im sure most are common lt anyways. Ntg to be jealous abt. Making a fuss abt this and that. Now cant even fuse my goddamn fang. But its okay. Those who got to open some crates then congrats. Those like me not lucky enough. Just hope we are luckier in the future. Imagine if you got some of those free crates? Are u in the wrong that you were at the right place at the right time? For most of us, we snooze we loose.
