Re: Battlepack Bug is Back!

@Forkbeard84yup, in xbox the bug still, works this morning i had logged in an i have 100 bpcks. and all of them wihout problems to open it

Ok I guess we are out of the closet now. The Battlepack Bug is Back Again!  Yes I'm getting free battlepacks every day just for logging in and the end of round scores are still not showing.  PS4

And yet, I remain strangely transfixed by the BP opening animation as I lay around in the morning, drinking coffee and pressing x over and over as I open battlepacks looking for those last few skins but mostly getting scrap.  It is glorious.

    But, yes, cat is out of the bag now.

    Dionysus God of wine, ah ok maybe I should switch to wine from coffee, then he'd really approve.

    You mentioned the bloodied landship a ways back and I meant to tell you its my goto skin on the landship.  Looks great and is good camo to boot.  If I'm tracking the exchange correctly, I think it will be back on there in a week or two.

    @Forkbeard84 That's the guy. He's also the God of ritual madness and theatre, and for some reason reading your comment made him pop in to my head. Think I might actually have had too much coffee.

    Oh very nice, it's a great skin. Kind of looks like something the World Eaters in W40K would drive. I'll keep an eye out for it in that case and hope your tracking is spot on, thank you.

    How many battlepacks are you on to now? I'm sitting on 63 now and haven't played a match since yesterday, they just keep multiplying.

    @ElliotLH I'm keeping about 175 unopened and then open the rest that I get. I get around 30 or so a day it seems. I log on and play a few games every day. I'm just about satiated. :-)

    @Forkbeard84 Not a bad idea, nice to keep a balance going.

    It is such a weird bug. I've just checked my app this morning and I've now got 74 without playing. I guess they get caught in a bottleneck or something.

    It really is a weird bug.  I'm still trying to quantify if its playing or just logging in repeatedly or just letting time go by that generates the free packs.  I still dont know.  I have this superstition that having a lot of battlepacks saved means more will be rewarded.  Its probably not true but thats one of the reasons I've been keeping a pile in reserve.

    I got about 25 more packs overnight when I logged in this morning.

    @Forkbeard84 Between where I left it after playing yesterday (28 packs) mine went up to 38 and then 46 without logging in to the game and only checking on the app.

    I'd like to get mine down to zero but pressing X loads of times is starting to * me off, especially as it's a race that you can't win at the moment.

    @Forkbeard84 From what I'm seeing you just need to log in to get them. I've not played a match in 3 days now, but have been logging in to see what'd happen and I'm now on 80. What's complicating things is that there also seems to also be a big delay before a battlepack is awarded, meaning it's hard to know whether they're just trickling in slowly from days ago or if logging in is generating more. Could even be both I suppose.

    @ElliotLH I think it's time, I logged in this morning and I had 19 battlepacks (since yesterday afternoon) ... I logged on again after lunch and I had 1 battlepack.

    @Wardude1987 It could well be, it makes as much sense as anything else. It could even just be random too I guess.

    All I really know is that since my last post I've somehow got 4 more without playing (according to the app anyway) haha.

    Hey Guys,  222 battlepacks this morning, up from 175,  It does appear to be a matter of letting time go by and not sure what else.  I have a freind with three accounts, two of which he has not logged into for awhile and his other two accounts didnt have any battlepacks when he did finally log in.  Not sure what that means.  

    Anyways enjoy the bounty of battlepacks!
