I think it’s a good idea that the dragon egg rate is low. Only the 1 percent should be able to obtain a powerful pet. Players like me, simple peasants, that earn their gold from farming, should only dream to one day have an exotic pet. This pet is the distinction between the extreme, elite p2p players and the f2p players. Just like real life, only the elites are able to drive Ferrari and lambos. Whereas the others have to conform to mid class vehicles. In the game, only the elite should have the mythical dragon, while the rest of the players, should conform to f2p pets. Besides, chickens are related to dinosaurs.
The 1 percent is why reality sucks at least in a dam game there could be some sense of equality, the 1 percent start off with more then the average person majority of the time, in a game we are supposed to be on a somewhat even playing field. To whoever gets a lvl 6 dragon i just feel sorry for, events like this that cause addicted players to spend ridiculous amounts of money are what cause some of the core plat buyers to quit when they come to the realisation of what they have been forgoing for a simple game. This is exploitation similar to that of a casino or other gambling agencies and there are many addicted players. I know i have a problem and every time i drop a large amount of money on plat (talking thousands in a day) it makes me want to leave so i don't do it again. What do OTM even do with these profits, they clearly don't reinvest in their own company. Making around 600-800 thousand pounds a year in profit could add alot more to the game then they have been. Probably underpaid staff with that one percenter taking all the money with no interest in furthering the cause.

It being pay to win isnt even the major problem, although it is unfair. The problem is pay to open a chest and hope u get something good, pay to have a minor chance. it would be one thing for a lvl 6 dragon to cost x amount but we don't even know how much it will cost because its a random drop from a chest. The player base is tiny theres gonna be like 20 eggs max per server this whole event and it may not even lead to a maxed dragon. This annoys me and i'm just expressing my opinion, if you do not criticise otm will never learn and ultimately the game will fail. myself and many friends are just waiting for corrupt gardens and if they continue with ridiculous RNG mechanics i don't think many of us are gonna stick around for another update.

Stop the RNG of everything in the game even cooking has a small percentage to be exquisite, RNG sucks, its like rolling for loot which most clans don't anymore.

I'm not a huge mobile gamer as I prefer more console type stuff like bioshock and assassins creed and legend of Zelda, etc. But if a mobile game has 0 incentive for players to make in game purchases, how do the developers make money? I'm genuinely curious as I can't imagine Google and Apple are just throwing money at developers to have their games on the store.
Well for one thing, don't ruin your game with plat-only gear that further divides plat buyers and non plat buyers.

OTM earnings spiked up in 2013-2014. What's main reason for this? Fashion, mounts, charms from chests.
There are plenty of premium items that a game company can sell without affecting the power/combat balance. MMO players are vain people, they like their avatars to look good, and people will spend money to buy fashion and nice looking rides, which has been proven in the last 3-4 years. There removal of normal mounts and the removal of limited-edition fashion basically drove down chest sales. Any smart marketing guy would realize this.

Don't most MMOs have where paying players have advantages over nonpaying ones?
Yep. That's why I liked CH. Now it's just like any other MMO that has a short shelf life.

Cosmetic items were where OTM was making big money, honestly if you look at their profit statements they make ridiculous amounts of such a small player base and it doesn't feel like any profits are being reinvested. It's up to the company to become profitable while providing an engaging experience for the player base. Their return on capital is ridiculously high, need to invest more if they want long term proftiabilty but i don't think this company truely cares about the long term anymore.

If it is correct that it requires over 1000 chests, thats over $1000 for a single player to get this one pet. I'm all for them making money but is this not to far in peoples opinions?

chests are going for 50k on my server because of the community buying and opening themselves, by that standard if i could find 1000 chests thats 50m which very few players will ever have let alone waste on chests. If things like this continue the game will just die unless significant improvements to the content are made in corrupt gardens.

Still this bs nag doesnt make sense ,if it was rl money pet it would be pay this amount and u get pet ingame with mail.. its all about luck not rl money. i opend many houndreds chest and only got one high value mount ,and some ppl open 100 and get several mounts and 100 u buy 4 mil on my serv usually and 4 m aint hard get ingame if u put in some work.. logic in this thread is failed long ago its just people who dont wanna spend rl money ingame so they complaint about ppl who does

How is this a nag i'm not telling to change anything now it's been done but i'm offering my opinion on what has been done in the hopes they don't do this again. It is all about luck and thats the problem in all the thousands if not tens of thousands of chests that will be opened this event you will be lucky to see 1 or 2 people with a maxed dragon pet, maybe a bunch of lvl 1 dragon pets floating around but what is the point of those it takes 6 eggs not 1 to max the pet. yet 1 egg is the same rarity as the 100% mount/4k plat/2m prize but that doesn't make sense, thats the equivalent of 12m or 24k plat jackpots. That doesn't seem right does it? if it was 1 egg for a lvl 6 pet thats a different story but its not.

An egg is not the same rarity as 2m and 4k plat lol. Where did u get those facts. It's about the same as a 90% mount.
guess based on the amount of chests opened in my clan vs the amount of eggs dropped, might not be accurate so far 1200 chests vs 3 eggs so yeah might have been wrong but still doesn't that seem like overkill. Could be inconsistent the next 1000 might have 10+ but i find that unlikely.

The 2m and 4k plat are about every 4000-6000 chests...
