[Suggestion] Event boxes

[Icemen40]

Hello everyone,

Here it's me again with another idea of mine. Something like this has been suggested before, but in my opinion it is a little bit different and a little bit more explained than the one before. Besides that, the suggestion before became the barrel/box at rad towns. This is something more like an addition to it!

My idea is a super event box. These boxes are dropped randomly on the map and spawn "randomly". There are like 1 super event box per 100 barrels/boxes on the map. This super event box only needs something to be unlocked, that makes the difference to the rad town barrels. There are many different super event boxes which each its own appearance. One for ranged weapons, one for tools, one for resources, etc. Each box is opened with some resources and you than have the change to get a good item of it. Let me explain it with some examples, with values: (this is focused onto the XP system which I really like. Therefore the items that are explained are really the items, no Bp's)

The super event box for ranged weapons must be opened using 200 wood, 200 stone and 200 sulfur ore (or 200 metal ore or 2 HQ ore (this is also randomly chosen with 33.3% chance for each kind of ore)). This box will open and it has one item in it. The ranged weapon box has one of the following items, with next to it the chance to get that certain item.

bow 17,4%
crossbow 12,1%
eoka 11,4%
bean can 9,4%
revolver 8,7%
pipe shotgun 8,0%
semi pistol 7,4%
f1 grenade 5,4%
Thompson 5,4%
semi rifle 4,7%
custom SMG 4,0%
Bolt action 2,7%
Assault rifle 2,0%
C4 1,3%
M249 0,1%

You see that there is a change to get the C4. 1/75 will have a C4, which is really nice for those low amount of resources, but the change to get a bow is pretty high. Maybe the percentages must be adjusted though.

Now for the super tool box, I thought of paying 300 stone and 300 wood and it will give the following items with the chance:

Torch 11,8%
Hammer 11,8%
Water bucket 11,2%
Stone hatchet 11,2%
Stone pick axe 11,2%
Salvaged pick 10,7%
Salvaged axe 10,7%
Hatchet 10,1%
Pick axe 10,1%
Supply signal 1,2%

Again it would be interesting to get 1/85 chance for a supply signal, only for 300 wood and 300 stone.

With all the other items there can be a box as well. Also for resources where you put resources and have the chance to get even more afterwards.

The idea of the boxes is that they spawn randomly and thus every player can take the chance. People who are already geared up will take the chance to get a supply signal or a m249. They will spend lots of resources to get these items. Nakeds, with just some gathered resources, will do it as well to get some tools/weapons that will take them further. If they don't have the level yet for crossbow it will become very valuable for them. Even when it costs more than it would when you craft it.

The boxes can be opened three times (so you can choose to pay three times the amount) and after that they disappear. Maybe they can come with air drops as well, but that's just a suggestion to a suggestion.

Thanks for reading! Hope you like it. Comment please, if you like the idea or you think it's dumb!
