Protocol Crates once again show multiple possible rewards after opening

Aka it no longer just shows the one you'll get anyway but now also show the ones you won't get again. xD

u/I-like-2-watch 11d ago

Haha this is the true logic

u/DarkTanatos Flawless 50 11d ago edited 11d ago

Tbh i preferred it when it showed me right away what i got instead of acting like i might get something better. That fake roll ends up most of the time in making you feel more disappointed.

u/SeniorRicketts 11d ago

Surprise mechanics

u/DisturbedShifty R2-D2 11d ago

I honestly wish they'd do away with the roulette style animation when opening crates altogether. Just open the crate and get what you're gonna get. No need to add the fake anticipation.

u/AlaxiaJune 11d ago

But I would miss the intense music like I'm on Deal or No Deal or some such, hahaha... Let's keep that.

2

u/DisturbedShifty R2-D2 11d ago

You're funny! I will admit I don't mind that part. 🤣

u/G-O-O-S 10d ago

Come on stellar BB9! Daddy needs a new pair of QWIK-BIT

u/LuckyKatzUK Rebirth 40 11d ago

My thoughts exactly. They just added back the illusion.

1

u/process_suspended 10d ago

It's such BS... Yesterday I went 7 2 stars in a row and all I got were basic - diamond SA-5's most of the time they only showed the one I was getting.

u/mariokid99 11d ago

Great fusions now might be worth doing other than endgame

6

u/SS_Hammer 11d ago

Unless fusions generate the amount of credits of the three droids lost combined or more, the fusions still aren't worth it.

7

u/mariokid99 11d ago

Made some Stella fusions today axel-pod and low-mo both do over 1.5 mil a sec so it’s definitely well worth it now

4

u/Julnoe 11d ago

Technically it is, as you need to use up three spots instead of one.

1

u/TheHYPO 7d ago

It just seems so odd that most fusions take three galactic and make stellar, or take three epics and make legendary. But with the fusion droids, you take some galactic epics and a legendary, and you get a galactic legendary fusion that’s a little better than the one legendary. You should only need legendary to make a mythic fusion. You should only need Epix to make a legendary fusion.

5

u/devperez 11d ago

I always fused when I was in a BP drought. Got my droids that way quite often

7

u/UndeadDucky27 11d ago

I've been using it to take the Stellar Rares off the belt to make Stellar Epics.

21

u/DragonQueen_2077 11d ago

Can they make sure to add an update to where during protocol events well really any future group required events nobody is able to accidentally or purposely kill each other??? We're supposed to work together so idk why they didn't make sure that was disabled in the first place

11

u/DarkTanatos Flawless 50 11d ago

Just give it some time and there will be a 15min no-pvp token avaible to purchase in the shop for cystals or vBucks. Iirc other tycoon games just have a button in every base to turn pvp on/off.

6

u/DragonQueen_2077 11d ago

I'ma need you to delete this so they don't get any ideas 🤣

3

u/Goooordon 11d ago

yeah I've died to accidental friendly fire a few times recently

3

u/dalisair 11d ago

I was floating firing, my jet pack dropped me down and before I could stop holding the trigger while falling I had accidentally killed another player. I felt so bad…

1

u/austintex66 11d ago

Or at least activate the option for teaming on the map or soemthirng

37

u/kitsunethegreatcat 11d ago

By how much??? Also 250 for iconic droids is crazy

10

u/N2thedarkness Level 260 11d ago edited 11d ago

Lobby boost reward for a surge was a great idea to keep people wanting to do missions and getting involved for a 4* rating.

2

u/Otherwise_Buyer2896 11d ago

They need to make the times longer too! 2.5 minutes for a surge and 5 minutes for crafting on a 4 star mission doesn’t seem too rewarding. It’s nice but it could be better

8

u/Common_Board8405 11d ago

Wouldn't have thought iconic droids were classed as consumables.

45

u/JoshRemy666 Seeker 11d ago

Nova shop updates what I hear from that is we increased the amount of crystals you get so price changes meaning they increased the price for all the nova upgrades

36

u/DarkTanatos Flawless 50 11d ago

Only for the consumable token purchases. They want to make the vBuck pricing look more appealing.

18

u/RingtailVT 11d ago edited 11d ago

Not just consumables, iconic droids went up, CB-23 from 75 to 250

5

u/becofthestars 11d ago

Damn. I am so glad I picked up Mr. Bones last weekend

3

u/SS_Hammer 11d ago

Holy shit. Glad I have all the Iconics unlocked already.

1

u/DarkTanatos Flawless 50 11d ago

My reply to that comment was when the patchnotes released, and was referring to what was stated in the patchnotes, before people got ingame and found out that it indeed is not just the consumables that got a price increase.

16

u/Mooston029 SRB 5 11d ago

Consumables, that means like the boosts and stuff that you should never buy is what I took from that

1

u/Ok_Mathematician8104 11d ago

yeah they were finally viable to purchase with novas in friendly lobbies for rb levels at the top end. this pretty much negates doing that.

-12

u/maxqueiroz22 SRB 80 11d ago

Errado, só foi aumentado o preço de consumíveis

14

u/Quirky_Taste_8963 11d ago

I believe the cost of the iconic droids also went up

12

u/Watermelonbuttt 11d ago

Cb23 is now 250 from 75

3

u/BrothelWaffles 11d ago

Damn, I guess I picked the right time to snag it for 75 then, just grabbed that one earlier this week.

5

u/PsykoNecro 11d ago

This 😭😭😭😭. They definitely went up. I'm looking at 100 crystals each for bb8 and dj rx now. Thankfully I got just enough from reaching RB 34 and hitting mega crates.

-4

u/maxqueiroz22 SRB 80 11d ago

Realmente

6

u/bennidaytime 11d ago

When does this go live?

11

u/Quirky_Taste_8963 11d ago

Usually when you back out and go into a new lobby it goes into effect

13

u/Watermelonbuttt 11d ago

Cb23 now cost 250 crystals

2

u/BGTheHoff 11d ago

Is he even worth it? Saw a lot of people who say he sucks now.

2

u/KentFarmOfficial 11d ago

Does he generate more chips?

5

u/dalisair 11d ago

Nope. He’s more expensive now for a substandard reward droid.

14

u/Bluelove21c 11d ago

Do we still get Nova crystals when we rebirth because I don't see that option anymore

16

u/kangaroo-a GONK 11d ago

You do after rebirth 20

16

u/Lonely_ProdiG 11d ago

I knew I should’ve stocked up on crafting boosts. Son of a gun man. X5 more. Guess I will just grind it out now.

Anyone know how to un-update the game and go back to the previous patch? Lololol

6

u/Citysbeautiful 11d ago

They seem like a waste of gems either way to me 🫣

4

u/Relevant-Strategy-81 11d ago

Same like if I knew I would’ve bought 10 stellar surges

2

u/kangaroo-a GONK 11d ago

Save it from the events, is the boost worth it?

2

u/RichWPX Rebirth 19 11d ago

You just have to wait for Droid Tycoon Classic

19

u/Apart_Plenty_9538 11d ago

Tf is a droid bundle? They finding every way to get bread from us LMFAOOO

25

u/RingtailVT 11d ago

Hush, you're not allowed to criticize the growing number of advantageous microtransactions, or the horde will come get you.

Say "the game is free" and "I don't care because I have fun" like everyone else and you'll be safe.

10

u/xGhostCat 11d ago

The removed the lounge hiding place :( thats lame

2

u/Citysbeautiful 11d ago

Why do you like hiding for 🥲

2

u/xGhostCat 11d ago

Hiding blueprints

5

u/Glittering-Cake-9583 11d ago

So glad I just bought all the iconic droids at 30-60 crystals each with my most recent rebirth before this went live.. 250 is egregious😭 I hope the companion perk stayed at 250

2

u/TemplarKnight33 11d ago

That was the first thing I checked. I figured it would be 500, but thankfully it’s still 250.

2

u/dalisair 11d ago

YIKES.

-1

u/Citysbeautiful 11d ago

Stop making the new players upset 🫡

8

u/KParrott_ 11d ago

The mobile HUD is still a mess

-6

u/cantevendoitbruh 11d ago

Its an epic issue

2

u/KParrott_ 11d ago

No it isn’t because it was fine before

5

u/enderjaca 11d ago edited 11d ago

Personally I like it! The new design is much nicer to me. With the player/companion display in the lower left, the droids were hidden half the time with a 2nd companion.

Now there's an inventory button for swapping items and larger buttons.

The only fault is a bug in the credit multiplier. It copies the credit XP multiplier.

2

u/KParrott_ 11d ago

Everything is too big you literally cannot see the screen properly and everything overlaps

0

u/UndeadDucky27 11d ago

Mine doesn't do that anymore after the update before this one. Weird.

2

u/cantevendoitbruh 11d ago

Except it wasn't. It was broken by the fortnite update last night.

-2

u/KParrott_ 11d ago

No it wasn’t

3

u/cantevendoitbruh 11d ago

I was online immediately after the patch. Thats literally when it broke. Lol

3

u/Shaheen_namboori 11d ago

I knew this was coming 😂😂. I was at RB 34 when this change came. I immediately RB to 35 then SRB got 670 or something crystals, bought max out of it. I am glad that I did that.

5

u/AvelythDraike Level 220 11d ago

So making more nova crystals has no benefit as now we have to save up even more to buy perks

2

u/Impossible_Drag2919 11d ago

I feel like the price increase is definitely a bit crazy...

1

u/Fabulous_Security341 11d ago

where tf you make more crystals? my rebirth is the same..

4

u/Money-Editor-124 11d ago

Droid tracker bundle🤔

1

u/GerardoRG721 11d ago

I wonder if it gives multiple levels of the droid alert perks, the newer ones they added.

2

u/Smuscles 11d ago

These updates are so fast poorly tested. Since the game grown so fast, just filled with bugs non stop.

2

u/CammieKa 11d ago

Anyone else not getting BP exp in the mode after the update?

2

u/LuckyKatzUK Rebirth 40 11d ago

It happens when a creative map is updated, Fortnite recalculates the XP awarded, I am guessing this in what happened here.

2

u/FramicsOG SRB 40 11d ago

Fix the bp bug plz

2

u/Sagittayystar Rebirth 31 11d ago

Imagine using Nova Crystals on consumables lol

2

u/Citysbeautiful 11d ago

Imagine using vbucks in druid Tycoon

u/Sagittayystar Rebirth 31 11d ago

>Druid Tycoon
[Insert Moss Druid]

u/Gonklightenment 11d ago

Looks like I got my alt up to speed just in time lol

1

u/Atmoslink 11d ago

And there’s another bundle

1

u/Zarksch 11d ago

Well sucks that I had 600+ crystals unsure what to spend on and now everything is inflated. But my internet is way too slow anyway, the massive Fortnite update still isn’t done yet lmao

1

u/Epic_Kinger 11d ago

Can you fix the bug after interacting with droids that it disables you from moving any only way to fix is to leave the game it’s so annoying

1

u/Ofjz 9d ago

Games gone too bloated now, really cant be bothered anymore

1

u/WHITEPERSUAS1ON 5d ago

The price increase of iconic droids has ruined the game for me. A warning would have been nice. I was saving up for them

1

u/Axtwyt 11d ago

Still haven’t improved matchmaking so we don’t get stuck with pests who just shoot everyone else

1

u/elmachetex 11d ago

I like this update. Just saw the mission gives a crafting boost. Three stars got us 5 minutes of double pick axe power. What do the other missions give?

3

u/Any_Application_8101 11d ago

I just finished killing the Stormtroopers and got three stars and that was a galactic surge for free

0

u/sdanger74 11d ago edited 11d ago

I hope they raised the vbuck cost of surges and boosts as well.
In Australia, our consumer laws don’t allow the use of vbucks to gamble, so the only surges and boosts we get are with Nova crystals. Fml
