    Everytime i get a godly in a crate it slows down like 3 times the speed it was originally was and its so annoying.
    devs can you please fix it so that it goes at the same speed everyting because im just wasting money in useless crates.

    So you're suggesting that the plugin used for crates intentionally dodges getting godlies by the power of the matrix slowing down the spinning and causing you to get something else? Seems legit.

    tbh if I was a dev and I wanted to make people get less godlies Id just change the chances instead of making it go at a different speed

    What Yuno said + you yourself said how someone got 4 godly items. Are you suggesting that the crates are "rigged" only for certain people?
    Curse those Devs and their miraculous plugin coding skills!

    IDK mate, I'm sorry you didn't get anything decent, but you let your saltiness talk instead of logic.

    the reward is already selected for you when you open the crate, it's just lag that makes the visual seem off.

    I said it before, and I'll say it again: We will never play tricks with your money.
    But we did try to make it fun to open a crate. That includes that little slow down at the end riiiiight before it stops on your item. That's exciting! Sometimes it's just enough to get a Godly, other times you miss it by just a little bit. It's more fun than just giving you the item directly. The negative effect of that is that sometimes, when people get unlucky, it could look like we rigged the system against them personally.

    Try to look at it from our side. We don't see rewards individually, like a player would, but on a larger scale. It makes no sense to rig the crates so individuals get nothing, when we could simply code them in the way we want and let statistics do its job. It's not "we wanna make sure Snoopzzzz only get 1 godly when he buys X crates!" but more like "let's make sure that if we sell a thousand of those, on average, they will have X godly".

    Rough analogy, but imagine a casino with only 1 game in it. 45% of the time, you win, 55% of the time, you lose (it's not that simple irl but just ignore it). The casino does not have to rig the machines to make money, because even though it's possible your average John Smith plays once and win the jackpot, statistically, the casino will make that money back over time. Now, our case is different because it's not gambling and we don't really lose anything if you get a godly, but that's the only analogy I could find in 2m that can explain how we see it.

    Ah yea and lastly, that speed up thing is linked to lag, but it should never affects the reward you were supposed to get.
