Is this for real?!

Aaaand another Loot Box with 4x Spray in it. Hey Blizzard, can you do all of us a favor and shove this kind of “surprice” WAY up your lazy behind? Especially when people paid you good money for a lot box? You don’t need to be greedy buttholes all the time, sometimes it’s ok to be fair to people who finance your pretty life… oh and something else: making some cheap looking Sprays “blue” doesn’t make them rar… it’s just so you can say “hey don’t be mad, you got a rar item in it”… not cool… not cool at all… it’s always funny to see how a developer gets more and more greedy and lazy as soon as they are bought by a big publisher…

If you are buying loot boxes, getting rubbish content is quite funny.

Like the game just pointing and laughing at you for being stupid enough to pay for them.

Woah… so you’re expecting to get good items if you pay a lot of money?

That’s not how a loot box works, if I spend a lot of money at a casino then I’m not guaranteed to get a lot of money back.

It’s completely random, you’re literally gambling… and complaining you’re losing.

It may look cheap to you, though not to them.
A lot of work goes in certain sprays/skins and they try their best to categorize them, it’s not if you say it is rare that it actually is rare.
Plus sprays and further on are pretty much worth nothing, same goes for the skins.
Why would you buy loot boxes if you wouldn’t even be able to gain money from it?

People like you are the part of the problem, why this system is as it is. You would buy a pile of garbage if they would make it blue and write Blizzard on it. fkn sheep.

What, it’s literally gambling.

Blizzard makes money from stupid people like you submitting to the system.
It’s already known that it’s purely based on RNG, you’re the one who bought that “garbage”

What are you barking dawg? It is exactly my fkn point. They became a fkn casino since they are owned by these corpo suits from Activision. I criticize and ask to make it better and you what? Try to take a dump on me. What a clown.

The lootbox system has been the same, nothing has changed since Blizzard paired up with Activision in this exact system.

The exact point of a company to make money, no matter how it’s done.


I mean, why are you complaining after you bought alot… you literally had all the information you had.

Call me a dog or a sheep, but to me it seems like you were the one blindly trusting them.
But apparently you “can’t trust them”… so why did you buy these lootboxes.

There is literally no worth in skins since you don’t have any community market of some sorts, you wouldn’t gain anything from lootboxes.
Some enjoy opening lootboxes, but you don’t have to buy them.

Why would you even pay money for cosmetics?
I mean, i understand a watch in real life… but would you really just bet on a nice skin with alot of colors in a video game?
Even if it wasn’t a random system, you’d still be wasting money.

You don’t have to buy, you’re acting like you were forced to buy lootboxes.

Just because people aren’t as stupid as you doesn’t mean you can simply insult them.

Can’t say you aren’t stupid if you bought from people you didn’t trust to start with.

This is the dumbest thing you said so far. Going with your logic, they could do wathever they want as long they can justify it with “we just making money” are you high?

I didn’t bought a lot, I bought 5 boxes but that is not the point. I don’t expect to see a legendary in every box just because I paid for it. But 4x spray is a pure garbage box, if you can’t see it, we don’t need to continue this conversation.

You still missed my point. Trust has nothing to do with it and wtf do I need to trust in buying a fkn loot box lol? you’re a weird …

No i’m not high.

It’s entirely logical to provide the option to buy lootboxes to those who don’t want to actually work to earn those lootboxes.
It’s perfectly normal for those bought lootboxes to function the same as those in-game, since you chose to buy them instead of working for them.

Again, you have the option. It’s not like they are taking something away from you if you don’t buy them.

It’s purely random?

If I have a Dice I literally can’t assume what exact number it will roll onto, you can’t blame me for rolling a 1 with a dice.

Well, you said you didn’t trust Activision and knew about how they’re out for money…
Why would you give your money to a company you don’t trust?

I mean, you literally said they are bad for x reason… you fell for that exact reason according to your logic. So if you already knew they were doing it, why take part in it and complain after it happened?

Well, it’s not like Activision has an active role in their loot box system… but even so, if we go by what you said, it would be logical to not buy from a company you don’t even trust.

It’s not like I would lend my money to a stranger I don’t trust, I thought trust had to do with pretty much everything.

Well if you know it’s gambling… why would you buy it?
It doesn’t motivate me whatsoever, i don’t really get myself worked up about cosmetics.
Of course i can’t talk for others, though i think it should become clear once it’s trying to get you to buy more.

I don’t even think of buying lootboxes as an option.
I’m not poor, i don’t check my finances constantly… though i don’t spend my money on virtual things i know i won’t make money or any other kind of value with.
It’s just good to check over what you’re going to buy.

Again, you don’t really have to buy them.

Anyone who buys them on a whim are just bad with their money, i don’t feel like they’ve been thought how to use the money if they just buy on an impulse.
These types of people would most likely get addicted in a casino too.

Not trying to blame you or anyone, though maybe it’s good looking out for what you’re trying to buy. You shouldn’t think of cosmetics (aka extras) as something important, otherwise, any game could get you to buy stuff like this.

I mean, i’m not being simple at all.

Trust means pretty much anything, definitely with money.
What’s the value you get from buying lootboxes?
Blizzard/Activision gets money, and you get a chance to get something good?

Well, Blizzard is getting actual money which they can spend, whilst you’re just getting a cosmetic that might be visually pleasing but you won’t notice it most likely whilst being in-game.
You can’t even sell it, so i think you severely misjudged what to spend your money on.

Why come to a public community forum if you don’t even want to discuss it?
Just file a direct complaint in with customer support instead of going to the forums where it’s normal to discuss stuff.

Oh right this is an extra:

Loot Box Distribution Rules
  1. The rate of rarity distribution for Loot Boxes (during no seasonal event) are a minimum 3 Common (White) and 1 Rare (Blue) item, then approximately 1-out-of-5 loot boxes will replace one item with at least one Epic (Purple) item, and 1-out-13 loot boxes will replace one item with one Legendary (Gold) item. It is possible to get more than one Epic or Legendary in any given loot box but it is extremely rare.
  2. During a Seasonal Event, seasonal marked items will appear more frequently with a minimum of one seasonal item appearing in any Loot Box and the odds of getting Seasonal Epic and Legendary items are improved from that of standard loot box items.
  3. On occasion, a Rare, Epic, or Legendary item will be replaced with Gold Currency. Gold Currency can be used to purchase any items (except Player Icons) from the Standard Loot Box distribution and any items that is currently available in an active Seasonal Event. You will get 50 Gold for Rare drops, 150 Gold for Epic Drops and 500 Gold for Legendary Drops.
  4. Loot Box contents are determined at the time the Loot Box is earned or paid for and not when the Loot Box is opened. The contents takes into account of the player’s current inventory for all items in the standard loot box distribution and seperately for any seasonal event in progress, but only issues items based on the rarity distribution. You cannot hoard loot boxes to earn new items for upcoming content releases such as a new hero.
  5. If a player collect all possible Standard Distribution loot box items at a certain rarity or all items of a Seasonal Event currently in progress, they will start to earn duplicates again. Here are a few possible scenarios:
  • If a player has collected all possible standard Commons from the Standard Loot Box distribution and there is no seasonal event running, they will start to earn duplicates again for any Common items issued. The Loot Box does not instantly provide any higher rank items by default nor will it issue any seasonal items when no seasonal event is running.
  • If a player has collected all possible standard Commons from the Standard Loot Box distribution but there is a seasonal event running and they have not collected all possible commons from that seasonal distribution, they will not start to earn duplicates again for any Common items but any Common Items will be seasonal items until all possible Seasonal Common items for that Seasonal Event are earned.
  • If a player has not yet collected all possible standard Commons from the Standard Loot Box distribution but has collected all possible Seasonal Commons from a seasonal event that is currently in progress, then they may start seeing duplicates on occasion. This is because a Seasonal Loot Box must contain at least one item from that Seasonal event which is not affected by rarity distribution.
  1. If a player unlocks an item with gold currency before opening any unopened Loot Boxes, they may receive duplicates to the item they just unlocked.
  2. UPDATED! - A Golden Loot Box is guaranteed to contain at least one Legendary item, however it is not restricted otherwise. Right now, you can get a free Legendary Anniversary loot box by logging onto the Overwatch Game client during the Anniversary event or a bonus Legendary Anniversary Loot Box with the purchase of 50 Loot Boxes ($39.99 USD). An Anniversary Event Legendary Loot Box will contain one Anniversary Event item based on your current inventory but it may not be that Legendary Item. If you purchase the 50 Loot Box pack with the bonus Anniversary Legendary loot box, the items in that Legendary Loot Box will be determined NOT accounting for the 50 other Loot Boxes (and the 50 boxes will not account for the Legendary Loot Box either). However the draw for the Legendary Loot Box will now come first before the 50 boxes.This makes it possible where the guaranteed Legendary Item is a duplicate!
  3. Anniversary Event Loot Boxes now pool from all current existing event loot box distribution and the standard loot box distribution. Please note, the Overwatch Anniversary Event is running at this time of this post. At least one Anniversary Event item will appear in each Anniversary Loot Box. For the three remaining slots any seasonal event drop or standard item drop will be selected PRIOR to rarity and item selection. Because of this, if you have collected all possible items of any rarity of any event or the standard Loot Box Distribution, there is a chance to earn duplicates. This chance will increase the more complete your collection of loot box items are even if you do not have all possible items for any rarity of any event (or standard loot box distribution).

I do want to discuss it, only not with a sheep that thinks Blizzard can’t do any wrong and try to link me some bullsh#t loot box distribution rules they made up for their blindly following community. Everything you wrote above is pointless because you don’t get a simple thing in your head. Just because you can scam people, doesn’t mean you should. I’m out.

Oh no, i don’t agree they can’t do something wrong.

I’m literally disagreeing with you on this point, i don’t see why disagreeing on this single thing makes me a sheep that thinks Blizzard is always right.

You’re literally creating an image of me in a single thread, honestly i wouldn’t even judge what kind of person you are just from a single conversation i had with you once.

Also those lootbox distribution rules are pretty much accurate, plus you’re not being scammed. You’ve been informed beforehand, at least you could’ve been.

To me it looks like you’re a sheep because you followed them blindly and are complaining about what the result of that was.
I’m pretty sure i’m not the only one thinking like this.

Honestly, just because someone doesn’t agree with you won’t give you the right to call them a sheep and so on.

(Oh p.s those distribution rules don’t directly come from the community, though have been observed and been put together by the community.)

You are very angry.

Realising Blizzard are a business and will make money anyway they see fit, as long as tthey aren’t breaking the law… Is EXACTLY what every business should be doing.

If you are buying loot boxes, you are dumb. Sorry there is no sugar coating it. Simple as.

Don’t complain about a company knowing how to make money out of people, if you are part of the problem. Vote with your money.

Why? Cuse I dared to criticise a corporation? I see how they could get reach and ignorant like that. That bite reflex you show of with is sadly typical or this community. Don’t criticise Blizzard and if you do, you’re just angry, dumb or simply wrong. No point to say anything at all.

  • don’t complain if you get scammed buddy, it’s your fault if you buy it
  • don’t complain if you get raped women, it’s your fault if you dress like that
  • don’t complain to get robbed pal, it’s your fault if you show off your stuff like that

Great way to go through life buddy. like I said, you guys are fkn sheeps

No you are very angry because you’re spouting labels at people for disagreeing with them.
People have different opinions, though it seems you aren’t very tolerable if you go on and call those people sheeps and so on.

Well it’s more a case of “I knew i couldn’t trust this woman, though she was trying her best to seduce me… well maybe i should go with her”
And then that person would show up to be killed on the news in the morning.

So, you were pretty much aware of the issue yet you went with the flow.
Then complained about the issue afterwards.

Lootboxes can literally be earned, i don’t see why you would buy them.
You’re literally making a big complaint about cosmetics… cosmetics in a video game.

I will happily criticise them if they have done something wrong.

But they haven’t.

If people are dumb enough to buy loot boxes, even though the in-game mechanics mean you earn them really quickly. They will sell them.

If you stop buying them, they will have to ask questions about how they can do it differently to sell them.

Not going to justify the last bit with a response other that, chill out and grow up.

I think the problem here is that he is annoyed he is dumb enough to buy them… and wants to blame someone for that…

I think the issue might be the one pressing the “buy” button

I think you’re to dumb to read the comments above you, otherwise you allready would have seen what I wrote about it. You two are scicering so hard wait and let me get a cam…

When someone pointed out you were wrong you started getting toxic… so I called you dumb for buying loot boxes.

Pretty concise version of what has gone down.

You are not in a position to question anyone with spelling like that… lol.


Just don’t buy stuff, or play the game if it annoys you that much.

I’m not wrong just because you or these other two clowns say I am. You can have your biased opinion, I don’t give a damn. The fact, that you all defending that scam to the blood shows me allready I have nothing to discuss with you, I allready told my opinion, there is no point to listen to sheeps if they just keep repeating themself like a broken record.

This was never the point of this discussion and the fact that you all three keep writing the same dumb sentence shows how you just can’t comprehend what you read, because you’re triggered and in a defense position from the beginning. It’s alright, you can die on that hill I don’t really care. And btw: toxic is just a fancy word snowflakes use if they can’t handle an opinion. I’m done here. The admins can close that thread if they want to. You have a nice day.
