Hi,

Can anyone tell me the odds on getting a super container, I have been getting 3 containers a day all January and not 1 container. I'm thinking its not worth trying for them.

Word on the street is around 1-2%.

Choosing the credits, consumables, or flags containers will probably reward you better.  The Try Your Luck is supposed to have a higher chance of a super container, but they are still very rare.

I have been getting 1 super container a week for the last three weeks. First week 50k free xp, second week 3-4 million credits (can't remember exact amount) and Last night I pulled a Molotov. Not bragging but a confirmation that they are there. BTW I only select Try Your Luck containers.

 

I print screened the Molotov container but shut down pc and didn't save. If it's still there I will upload it for proof when I get off from work.

I am starting to think that I will see Bigfoot before I see another Supercontainer.  Got three in the first few weeks (to hook me, I'm certain!) and haven't seen one in the past two months or so.

very low and the try your luck option is a gamble with reduced reward more likely but please press on and hope for the best

They are out there.  On my fails I have been getting good flags ( Speed Flags) and some silver.  Last super was 250 of the secondary flags.

Last I heard, it's 1% for everything but Try Your Luck, which is 2% and you can earn ships through it.

 

Pretty much, always choose Try Your Luck. It's really not worth it over the other  options. I've gotten 9 supercontainers so far.

I just got one, gave me 250 india x-ray flag, wthis the point of that reward? If I want flags I would choose the flag options. Seems the rewards tree for super containers needs a rework.

I usually don't go for the super containers because ill end up getting 5 signals instead. Surprisingly, just yesterday I opened a crate to try and get some good consumables and instead got a Super Container. I will usually go for signals or consumable drops because you can get free XP out of those.

I heard it's quite low.  Personally, I just pull for flags these days since I've already gotten the ships I wanted from the Santa campaign.

4 or 5 supers ever... dragon flags, 20 million credits, 10 million credits and speed flags

 

 

They were nice but so rare After 3000plus games and 3 containers a day in 4 months that's your odds

when first showed up, i had gotten about 3 super containers, then i was offline for a couple months.

 

last 2 months roughly, zero super containers. and thats opening 2 everyday, mon to friday.

and i always do try your luck.

 

i don't care about additional credits, flags,eh whatever. i earn enough playing. camo...well i have over 100 of the mardigras special ones now :/

along with about 200 other ones...i can't use them up fast enough !!

 

so i'm only interested in a super container.

The RNG of the super container is as crappy as ever.  I've been at it since they started it, and 2 supers period.  And yet my friend, who made a new account through the friend invite thing, got 3 on the same day, and another the next.  They either need to up the chances of it or just get rid of  the containers period.

Why would you want them to get rid of giving you free stuff? That's the most absurd thing I've ever heard.

Yeah I agree. Personally I like containers, I get my signal flags thru them (I play PvE mostly). I actually HOPE that I don't get a super container because the ones I keep getting are those silly upgrade modules I have no use for. All I want are signals, would be nice to be able to opt out of the whole super container silliness.

i like the idea of a SC. Your running low on credits? try your luck a SC comes up loaded with 10 million..now you can get that new boat. Port looking a tad empty? SC and you get a molotov! russian connections and bias confirmed! Need free xp to get that last upgrade? SC says..10k free xp..there ya go upgrade and a possible new ship! I do agree the SC chances need to come up from 1% (if you played Borderlands 2 thats the exact chance of getting a corbra rifle from the torgue DLC..the beatdown section..a big burner using a sniper rifle..yadda yadda.) to about 5%. if you get 100 containers..5 should be SCs. If it sounds like greed it is not..some of us play alot and could really use a big morale boost if the RNG,MM,and teams are just bad..it keeps us going and hunting for that big payoff.
