So, has anyone noticed that the prizes for the current Shoot-N-Loot event seem a little weak compered to past events?

Not that I am complaining about getting free stuff for playing a game I enjoy.

But I seems like for past events, the prizes were a little better.

So far, after 40 matches.

No C-Bill prize more then 112,500: Total of 750,000
No MC prize more then 10: Total of 30.
2 UAV's, the C-Bill ones
Boat loads of GXP.
Tons of cockpit fluff

Are the prizes not as good this time around or am I just unlucky?

The prizes are amazing not sure what event you are playing. Are you opening the random loots? Like tons of them with all sorts of rewards.

I have a 50MC.

No CBills >112,500 though.

Might just be the luck of the draw.

Need to factor in those prizes you can unlock by playing 20, 40, ... games. Those are actually nice, and you can choose them yourself.

The contents of the loot bags aren't the real prizes. If you clear 120 loot bags, you're qualifying for free paint and free camo schemes of your choice, up to 2 of each. Those are 500-1000 MC each.

I think there may be a c-bill max of 112,500 and I have gotten a couple of 50mc prizes. Otherwise, yeah mostly just fluff. Although I am looking forward to getting some more colors.

Frankly ... I don't remember when premium colors and camo patterns were in prizes ... like ever. Being able not only to get a couple of those but also choose exactly which ones you want is kinda nice.

Out of 60 loot bags so far, I have various rewards of MC up to 50 (330 total), Cbills up to 112500 (total 1825000), GXP up to 500 (3000 total), 6 cockpit items, 12 consumables and 1 day active premium time. I'm thinking the loot bags are toned down to compensate for the additional prizes you can redeem for as you collect bags.

The loot bags are the gravy... the camo patterns and colours are the steak and potatoes. Yum.

I got a 500k Cbill prize from two out of sixty.

Lot's of decent MC prizes and GXP prizes too, which is nice. Warhorn and Hanging items sprinkled in too which is very nice.

I got a total of 380 MC and 1,2 million C-Bills out of 60 bags so far. Plus 1 day of premium time, some GXP which I don't really need, and some consumables/cockpit items which I definitely don't need. Good enough for me, especially since it's just the icing on the cake, the colors and patterns are the real prize. No complaints here :)

GXPs are so useless for someone who is swimming in SP. Posted Image

Got the Nobori Nin cockpit item and "Assault" decal, which are nice.

Missed the first bracket due to limited time available, having all the top rewards only kick in on the 130 - 150 (aka the 5th full bracket) seems unfair, also considering the other rewards are spaced apart every 20, having the top ones spaced 10 apart is kind of a crappy way to treat fans with time limitations.

Hello all,

The loot bags might be a little light at times, but the the bar set to earn them is pretty low too. Closing in on 70 bags and can't complain.

Good hunting,
CFC Conky

Luck (bad) of the draw I guess.

Got 2600 GXP to add to the 350,000 I got in the skill tree exchange. Last 4 grab bags were 400 GXP, total.

Hopefully my luck improves tonight.

Its to bolster your cache to give you some $$$ for when the new tech drops.
Though its brought out a lot of bad players.
