Same here. I didn't get any the first reset and was only aware of the EXISTENCE of cornucopias because of the icon with a huge goose egg next to it. I've gotten a grand total of one this reset and I'm about halfway through. I also didn't get the tank drop from the previous sorta-event and I've noticed a number of quirks in the game that make me think they're using some sort of severely bug-fucked pseudo-rng and ordered drop tables. EG - if you fail to upgrade an emblem with a 90% upgrade chance and then immediately try to upgrade it again you get a failure rate much, much higher than 10%, and it seems like you tend to get the same tank level doing rapid sequential builds in the factory. Of course without being able to see their code we may never know what they fucked up, but the first fuck-up was even using RNG instead of using a shuffle bag system on event critical drops. Also, I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess the new player retention through the last three events has been less than spectacular.

Well, for what it's worth I'm *roughly* on target, getting 4 each day. They've been fairly spread across it though, and I've only been able to get up to the 8th/7th tile so far per reset.

I am slightly curious as to whether you need 20,000 points for the first bounty 5*, or 45,000. I suspect the latter.

10.000 points for first bounty. Once those points are paid, the next opens up,
15.000 points for the second bounty (or 25.000 in total to get here)
20.000 points for the third (45.000 total)
and 35.000 for the last (80.000 total)

Clearning all maps once gave me 13.000 points.

Event tank is handed out at the 3rd Bounty.
So it will take me 4 clears to get that or 3 clears and some feathers, with everything else being a bonus.

Seriously. People expect way to much and want the elited version.

Problem with event is not the rewards, they are as usual generous if a bit random, but that it lacks some more and better story bits and better presentation all round, something that is a trademark problem of their approach to the game, seemly dont get that they need to juice things up, heck take a simply thing like the event girl. She is hidden under the bounty information ... O_o thats the opposite of what any game would want to do.

We want the elite version because we can complete all of the event tiles, and that should be the reward for doing so. We shouldn't be prevented from getting the elite version while someone who can't...or worse, simply won't...do what we can do in the event maps can get it simply because they got lucky with the RNG.

This is not entitlement...we want to work for our prizes. We just want to get those prizes for which we put in the work.

Seriously...they're now two for two on events actively discouraging progression in the game. The higher you were at the time of the Halloween event, the less maps you could complete, and therefore the less event currency you could earn because the commander/tank gap expands as XP is added. Now for this event being able to complete everything the event asks you to do means nothing at all if you don't have much better than average luck with the drops.

Half way through the first map reset, gained 0 fcking cornucopias from it so far.
This is plainly retarded.

Zandel you lucky bastard you, seems like you got more than all of us here combined. But honestly, though ...
So far it seems highly improbable that most people will be able to get all 3 copies of the event tank. Not with drops like these.
Srsly, instead of Fucking RnG is it that big of a deal to hard program static drops, lets say 5 per map ? Coz then you have situations like these where some people get so much of it, they are not even able to believe the others who get totally F. over by RnG.

The repair chick is a latino/asian not white, take a proper look at her, and she aint a man. I get the satirical alegory I do, but fuck that rasist remark dude T___T

Oh I believe, RNG is RNG after all. But when most people are getting 5+ per run then it's just bad luck for a few that we are seeing. Remember that only a small % of people who get average to good drops will post about them while almost 100% of bad drops will be posted about. Looking at other media, the drops are not that bad. You guys have just had some bad RNG rolls. You might end up with 10 from the next reset or something, of course it's also possible you get 5-10 over the course of the entire event.

That is WHY they have the option in the shop to purchase more. In case RNG fucks you over or you simply don't want to risk RNG to begin with.

"The white man" is a relevant historical comparison, and 'man' is used collectively to refer to any group of people, which includes women. That, and she's blond, has an off-color tan and... purple eyes? That's what we call 'racially indistinct'. You don't even know how much white man repair chick has in her. So much. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Don't treat 'white dudes' as a single tribal entity. That's a "watches too much fox news" understanding of racism.

At least the corns drop rate seems to be holding steady, cleared 9 tiles and got 7 1st time, have cleared 7 tiles to far and got 6 so not a terrible drop rate at all. Glad that anyone capable of clearing all the maps can indeed get all three versions of this girl and eliting her. I was concerned when I saw the third currency required but now not so much.

That's too bad, you're missing the whole experience! You see, this is actually a subtle homage to the trail of tears. You're supposed to feel the pain and desperation of the Cherokee as your tanks are repeatedly struck down by the living embodiment of plague. Ache with the desperate hunger as they fail, repeatedly, to find a single cornucopia. Here, you can know the suffering of being stripped of your possessions and dignity by the treachery of the white repair man. Truly, by letting us experience a small piece of this suffering the event humbles us, and makes us thankful.
