Please remove the duplicates from season boxes especially when crew is most likely to drop in the slit boxes consider the drop rates of epics

also on that that note please make the drop rates for all characters the same makes 0 sence to be 40% for commons and 15 for epics I recommend 30% across the board

And the split boxes are nice if you want to focus on a sertin character buuut the 1 season box was nice to be able to unlock everyone

I recommend to have both the box with all there for people to unlock anyone and once they are unlocked then the separate boxes appear if you want to pick n choose who to get shards for

And 500 is to much tokens for split boxes 300-350 would be more worth it with the 1 season box with all characters in it being 500

Strategically split season box idea is better for me. I want ralph shards and chance getting it in the specific splited season box is more. the others are already upgraded enough. season boxes are better. but wish kermit the frog shards were purchasable with season golden pass tokens. The problem is after for example spending like 10.000 tokens i would like to get increased possibility. and after making 5 stars of a crew that should not drop.

I guess as a heavy spender I'll offer some feedback from that perspective. I honestly feel as though you split the boxes to prevent "accidental" progress on non-targeted characters. With a single box, you could get character and epics for all seasonal racers including unlocking, which I MUCH preferred. It at least felt like you were getting something for your money/tokens. With the split boxes having the same crew and intentionally abyssmal drops for the actual characters/epic crew (which you know is the only things we actually want) we quickly max the lower crew. As a spender, you are then essentially forced to stop buying because you'd be wasting money or literally burn it on duplicates. This is compounded by the fact the character releases are staggered, so by the final unlock (Ursula/Calhoun) you know you are doing nothing but wasting $5 a pull. It's insane. I've spent a lot less across the board this season and am not anticipating spending AT ALL on season boxes in S8 if the current system stands. I've wasted enough of my money on the season boxes and feel the split was just another way to rake players over the coals.

There is no reason to not have split boxes and a box that encompasses all unless you want to be super transparent about limiting the ability to unlock characters that are tied to the golden pass. It just comes off as greedy. Unlock this character before getting a chance to get more shards for them is ridiculous. You take away freedom of people playing how they would like to play. It also locks people out of mid season racers now without paying. Be less obvious. The issue with the one box was the repeated shards for racers already maxed. If the season box had the same odds and functionality as the Frozen series but with actual programming to no longer pull shards for items maxed out... people may actually be happy and even those who don't spend money actually may be willing to spend.

Spending tokens on season boxes is a waste. May not even get a shard for the racer or their epic crew. Then it feels like a waste. Not a great feeling.

I spend season box credits right away. Gives me something to do in the shop.

Season Boxes are overpriced just like everything else in the game.

None of this feedback is new. Curious if anything will actually change next season. 🤪

Season boxes are overpriced. They should guarantee a minimum of 2 shards of the character. I’ve opened way too many boxes and only gotten crew members. I also feel like since the racer boxes came out, the chances of getting more than x2 drop for a racer has PLUMMETED which further decreases the value of the box. Not something I’d spend tokens on.

  • Bring Back 1 Season Box or Give 1 Season box and Split boxes together
  • Split boxes should all have same chances - 40% to get racer shards
  • Eliminate duplicates
  • Increase shard drops for racers back to 4-10
  • Decrease price for 1 Season box to 200-300

For the price, you should be much more likely to secure shards and epic crew shards. But most importantly, when a crew member is maxed out, they should be removed from your loot pool as its horrendous to pay what you are charging for a simply a small chance at getting something you want. Similar games would give you a guaranteed reward for the same price. I love this game and have put a lot of money into this however, you are getting progressively more greedy throughout the life cycle of this game. The Kermit shards were a real disappointment and perfectly captured the severity of the issue.

The price is too high and the likelihood of getting what I want is too low. The idea of split boxes is good - so we can focus on a racer - but what I want from a dedicated box at that price is racer shards and epic crew guaranteed. I don’t want low counts of common crew and I don’t want to gamble.
If the cost were lower I’d probably spend tokens more often. Or, give me options: 500 for guaranteed racer shard, guaranteed epic crew, random other; 300 for guaranteed epic crew and 2 random other. 100 for random 3.
I always spend box credits immediately. I never spend 500 tokens.

Been a player since day 1 in Early Access. I feel the boxes are too much of a gamble to spend blue tokens on right now. I am very aware that you can get duplicates and alot of common crew which is obviously not what I am after spending 500 tokens on a random box.

To get me to SPEND blue tokens on a random box, some changes must be made. The boxes must be less expensive, period. The duplicates need to dissapear from the split boxes altogether, or empty the box by removing what you get in it to force getting what I want with enough tries. If there is a normal season box with everything in it along side the split ones, thats a viable way to get common crew and the occassional nice things. More shards, epic and rare crew in split boxes for better draws. Better odds to get the shards and epic crews if common is in the box.

In short, make the Season Boxes WORTH the investment!

Both boxes are kinda neat. they do feel a little overpriced for what you get but that goes for a lot.
I personally like the singular season boxes but thats because I would like to get racers from the season I don't have yet.
Being able to focus on a racer is nice too, so I can understand the reason split boxes are good as well, but I feel like with the current split boxes the chance for racer shards is low, if Im focusing on using my tokens or box credits on a singular racer, I'd like to be getting shards of that racer with each box. Getting crew is nice, sure, but getting all 3 rolls of a box on just crew shards doesnt feel good or rewarding, it feels like a waste.

It’s really simple keep the split boxes. But maybe add a wishlist in those boxes. That we can pick 1 or 2 items in that box to add to the list which raises its drop rate.
Even the universal box need this wishlist since there are so many items there.

The idea of split season boxes initially sounded good, but in practice, I get so many crew shards that I wind up with 5 star crew and very few racer shards and even fewer exotic crew shards. I have spent far less the past two seasons because of this.
I spend most of my tokens immediately. Also, I won’t spend tokens on racers with no voices!!

#

In my opinion, the probability of obtaining pilot shards should be increased and the probabilities should be recalculated when a character is maxed out, as happens with universal boxes. This season, for the first time, I managed to max out two crew members, but I wasted a token just to get duplicates.

  • 1 Season Box vs Split Season Boxes

Split boxes are cool until you max blue/purple crew, and then you just get duplicates trying to get racer/epic crew shards out of any box. thats just a waste of money or season coins.

If it’s maxed, take it out of the box.
This would work better with a single box vs split box, to get more variety amongst all of the racers and epic crew, unless you want people to be able to target and invest heavily into 1 racer, which is also fine.

If you insist on not simply removing the maxed racers/crew, replace maxed out racers/crew with upgrade coins to make the investment worth it.

And don’t be cheap about it. Give a decent exchange rate for crying out loud.

Duplicate shard exchange is worthless, don’t make the replacement for the worthless system also worthless. It defeats the point.

I don’t like split seasons that make me have to wait 4-5 weeks to get the season racer I want to get out of the season boxes, either, while we’re on the topic of boxes and getting racers.

I don’t like having characters I don’t use, because split boxes are worthless after a certain point. You damn sure won’t catch me pumping money into a 10% chance to not get pennies worth of season coins.

The value of a season box has been diminished, and I have spent very little on them because of it. I wanted Calhoun, so I spent all of my season coins on her. The only reason I spent a little extra money in her is because she’s getting voice acted next season.

And to diminish the value of a split season box further, you want us to invest in the characters that don’t have voice acting.

Its really sad. Its genuinely not worth the money I would have put in, which is why I haven’t.

  • Main reasons you do/do not spend Tokens on Season Boxes

Value is trash, because maxed duplicates are worthless.

Voiceless characters are not fun to play.

  • Do you tend to spend your earned Season Box Credits immediately or save them up?

I saved every coin for Calhoun. Now she’s maxed, and I have a lot of 4-5 star crew. That means the other boxes are useless to me, because duplicate shard conversions and I can’t justify the immense cost to spend tokens to get a very small percentage chance for what I actually want.

  • How do you compare Season Boxes to other similarly priced Boxes in the game?

Not good. Not good at all. The “value” is actually laughable. The value is extremely diminished by the duplicate shard conversion, and voiceless characters.

I primarily spend the season box tokens in an attempt to acquire equal amounts of shards for each racer, though usually avoid spending too many early on in order to factor in shards sourced from other means. Once I have enough for about level 35-40 I spend on trying to fill out the remaining epic crew members to 2* who aren't there already. I don't see any need to spend premium tokens on the boxes because you can generally plan to get enough racer shards in the season to bring each racer up to level 37, which I believe is the half way point of 100 racer shards?

If I had my way, mid season racer boxes would also accept season tokens, though they would have to be available from the start of the season to plan spending. Really I'm just wondering in general how long it takes mid season racers to become "first class citizens", as they are intrinsically linked to seasons themselves but also not in a useful way.

Sorry for the joke post earlier. I misread the channel.

Season boxes are gambling. Let's not ignore that fact. If you're rich, you may not mind gambling, but if your goal is to encourage others to gamble then you need to either increase the odds in their favor or lower the barrier of entry. $5 for a single box is a high barrier of entry. In this economy, most people don't want to spend $5 on a loaf of bread, let alone a gacha box. I would recommend working with your team to find a compromise price. $2-$3 would be ideal, alongside with a slight buff to shards. 20% for epic is more appetizing than 15% because people can do the quick math and understand they have a 1/5 chance.

I sit on my season box coins. I understand this runs contrary to what the game wants us to do, but it's quite simple: we can't see the future. If I spend all of my season box coins leveling up Ralph and then you launch an event where we need a higher level Vanellope, I will no longer have the season box coins I need to level her up. The way to resolve that would be full transparency, but I doubt the game will be willing to let us know every upcoming event throughout the season. Removing FUD here is essential if you want people to spend them.

As for comparisons, from 2017-2021 I played Kingdom Hearts: Union Cross which was very much a pay-to-win gacha. However, they employed mercy mechanics to soften the blow. They also gave out a fair bit of free currency. With the mercy mechanic, you were able to get the featured medal guaranteed for 15,000 jewels, but even free-to-play players could earn those 15,000 jewels in a couple of months if they saved them up. If Speedstorm were to give out more free currency and implement a mercy mechanic, perhaps the gacha boxes would be more appealing. A guaranteed x10 shards for the featured racer every 5th pull, for example. I opened 12 Ralph boxes and got 4 shards. Guaranteeing x10 after opening five would make me far more likely to spend tokens in the future.

- 1 Season Box vs Split Season Boxes
Why not both? It was once a way to unlock everyone without Golden Pass. Now you locked it away, as you increasingly do. Split boxes have horrible odds for Epic racers and you can pull duplicates after maxing something out.
- Main reasons you do/do not spend Tokens on Season Boxes
They're random and paid on per roll basis while being terrible value for tokens and tokens overall are scarce to obtain. Why would I support your horrible business practices by buying tokens in the first place?
- Do you tend to spend your earned Season Box Credits immediately or save them up?
They're spent as required. No reason to hoard them if you know who you need the most and/or how much of it. And if you're locked out of 2 racers and next 2 are not worth it because they're both weak and lack voice over...yeah this season it was incredibly simple to allocate them.
- How do you compare Season Boxes to other similarly priced Boxes in the game?
Poor value to price just like everything in the shop, there's nothing to compare.

Despite the current state of the game, I still love it and want to see it improve, so I will take the time to offer some feedback on the specified points.

- 1 Season Box vs Split Season Boxes
I personally prefer the split season boxes.

- Main reasons you do/do not spend Tokens on Season Boxes
I don't spend Tokens on Season Boxes because I prefer to spend Tokens on more guaranteed results, like buying specific crew shards in the daily shop rotations. The steep cost and low rates for the season box are a gamble and therefore harder for me to justify. Also... No one wants duplicate shards for a racer/crew they've already maxed out.

- Do you spend your earned Season Box Credits immediately or save them up?
I spend my Season Box credits immediately, assuming I have the targeted racer already unlocked.

- How do you compare Season Boxes to other similarly priced Boxes in the game?
By comparison, I am more willing to spend on boxes that can be 'emptied out'; again, guaranteed results. For example, with the Wall-E starlight box from last season, it was 40 pulls. You knew exactly what you wee getting if you're willing to commit to the entire box. Cleared it out both times it appeared in the shop. Did the same thing with the Aladdin Star Chaser boxes this week as I knew what I was buying. I don't see myself ever spending tokens on season boxes as there's no guarantee of what I'm getting.

Other gacha games have implemented a pity/spark system, something akin to guaranteeing a specific racer after having pulled X number of times. Might be worth considering to incentivise players to commit to a set number of pulls, at the very least.

Split boxes are absolutely fine as long as ALL boxes are unlocked at day 1 of the season (exception the season tour - unlock as soon as enough shards are available (Wave 4-5))

  • 1 Season Box vs Split Season Boxes.
    I would like my season box back like from Frozen season but with the mechanic of the Universal box. Split season boxes where ok. Until you see the drops chances of the character you want. I understand the rarity is important but if I pay for a Vanellope box I expect get at least one drop of her shards and not being punished by choosing her over Felix which have better chances to get shards for him.

  • Main reasons you do/do not spend Tokens on Season Boxes
    Repeated crew members or shards for maxed racers that end turned into season coins which is less useful that blue tokens and when you are almost at the end of the season... Even less useful.

  • Do you spend your earned Season Box Credits immediately or save them up?
    Save them up. Specially this season. I want to to see all my options and check drops, amount of available shards and other information before choosing a box to spend.

  • How do you compare Season Boxes to other similarly priced Boxes in the game?
    Better that mid season boxes, specially Kermit, but since they cost Blue Tokens and don't remove maxed crew or racers from them. Worse that universal box.

The only problem I could say that season boxes have in Frozen season and before was the repeated crew and racers maxed. If that was fixed season boxes would be way better and with less complains. After all the number of season credits we get is limited so we want to get the best of our hard worked credits we get.

I really hate the way this season has messed with the natural progression of the BattlePass.

Not only is it more expensive, but I am FORCED to buy a $20 BattlePass with level skip in the 2nd part of the season, even though I just want to buy the golden pass token and level up naturally on my own.

Why is the game forcing me to buy the 2nd option when I had both with the first half of this season? Please fix this now so I can have the opportunity to actually play the game before the season ends.

I’ll make it very easy for you, Gameloft to have a balance of monetisation and free to play/golden pass customers. Do ALL of the following:

  • Make the season box credit specific to the season, like season coins have variations with logos. Then, make the box credits NEVER EXPIRE.

  • During the season, offer characters split season boxes like you are now. After the season, make the global season box variant permanently available for the price of 200 tokens each or leftover season box credits players still have from that specific season. REMOVE THE CONCEPT OF LEGACY BOXES.

  • This allows people to invest in their favourite franchises indefinitely.

  • Remove duplicates from ALL season boxes

  • Universal boxes remains the “slow” method without spending money. Season boxes remains the paid way but is more guaranteed for the player and gives them choice how to spend it without a hard FOMO limit.

I've opened 6 Ralph season boxes, and got 0 shards for him. That does not make much sense. Increase the probability of getting the shards, otherwise it discourages people to get any season boxes at all.

  • 1 Season Box vs Split Season Boxes:

If you want to focus on a single character, then split boxes are fine. However, if you don't have any preference, then a 1 common season box is better. Therefore, as suggested many times, the best option would be to have a common season box available for everybody at the start of the season and adding the split seaxon boxes once each racer is unlocked. Having the choice between a general box or a specific character box would be the best.

  • Main reasons you do/do not spend Tokens on Season Boxes

I don't like gambling, so I only spend tokens for specific rewards (for example, 200 tokens for 1 specific racer shard). I don't buy boxes where I can get things that I already have.

  • Do you spend your earned Season Box Credits immediately or save them up?

At first, I use them immediately, but once my racers get a decent level then I save the credits, especially because we can't see the requirements for the nodes of the second part of the season tour. For example, I saved my Ralph season box credits beacuse I didn't know if I was going to need a very high level Vanellope during the second part.

  • How do you compare Season Boxes to other similarly priced Boxes in the game?

Expensive, especially when I can get duplicates which are exchanged for season coins with a very bad exchange rate.

  • 1 Season Box vs Split Season Boxes

I prefer 1 box over the split option. The chances of getting the characters I want are low (ex: Ralph), but if I'm unable to get him, at least I have a chance of receiving other character shards rather than just crew.

  • Main reasons you do/do not spend Tokens on Season Boxes

My tokens are better spent on something that's guaranteed rather than a chance at something. Ex, I'd rather buy Ralph's shard pack than a box that will likely not give me shards.

  • Do you tend to spend your earned Season Box Credits immediately or save them up?

With the current split box option, I want to evenly progress my racers so I'll wait to see where my characters end up. At the end of the season, if Felix is lv. 35 and Ralph is lv. 20, I'll use the credits on Ralph's box.

  • How do you compare Season Boxes to other similarly priced Boxes in the game?

Not great. The split season boxes offer too many duplicates and the chances of getting something you might want is too low (for epic/rare characters).

grand zephyr
#

Personally the main thing that stops me from buying any boxes is the possibility of duplicate shards. This applies to both season boxes and shop boxes.

If all boxes guaranteed no duplicate shards like the uni box does, I'd be more inclined to buy them, as then maxing out regular crew would increase the box odds of getting racers and rare/epic crew pulls.

Hard to want to spend money on boxes knowing I'll likely get maxed out standard crew duplicates

I much prefer it all in one season I have a hard time gaining tokens and then to choose which characters to upgrade is a hassle I save them and wish u could spend multiple like the early seasons to increase ur pull rate I think the season boxes are fair but I do personally prefer the older format

kind dragon
#

I save the season credits, spend them later and select a box. I thought it would be better like Frozen because there was one box for all the characters and crew members. I don't think it's been this good since the Ariel season. and there are 3 epic ones in this season and you get little to no shards out, or only a few shards so it would be nice if it was improved in the future

My feedback on this is simple:
Splitting up the season boxes by racer is ok.
Splitting up the season tour/pass by parts is NOT ok.

Ive read thru all the posts before myne and i see the same reoccurring themes that has been said over and over in the disscord. Please listen to the feed back for what it is.

  1. We open boxes to get shards for the racers we want and the drop rates are terrible
  2. We hate duplicates. The compensation given to us for them is terrible
  3. They are to expensive. You shouldnt expect players to spend any more then $1 per hour of enjoyable gameplay. All tokens and credits have a dollar value and we are well aware of it.
  4. We spend or save our credits with a common goal in mind, to get the items we want. No matter what system is put forth players will find a way to optimize it for the best results. Players have very little controll and very limited options to obtain what they want currently and they dont like it.
  5. None of the loot boxes are new player friendly. Everything feels over priced and greedy. A new player will not have a easy time getting enuff credits or tokens to open enuff boxes to sufficiently level up there racers to a competitive level.

- Main reasons you do/do not spend Tokens on Season Boxes
I don’t spend tokens on season boxes. I buy the first and second season pass. This, finishing all events en getting a lot of medals should me get at least to lvl 40 with all season racers & have all crew at 4 stars guaranteed. 
- Do you tend to spend your earned Season Box Credits immediately or save them up?
Depends on racer levels. After having all racers at 35/40 I spend them on the most loved character. Because of events we don’t know which are coming my statement is not buying for shards while I bought both parts already. And spend a lot of time to complete it. 
- How do you compare Season Boxes to other similarly priced Boxes in the game?``` I think the output of boxes after lvl 50  is higher than before. Season box should be cheaper than boxes with a lot of different stuff where you mostly sometimes don’t need stuff from

Remove crew shards (except the yellow ones) from character boxes, and have the box focus on the season characters and any mid season racer.
Not related but imo upgrade currency and perhaps season coins need to drop in a similar way you get yellow/red currency in Asphalt 9.
I also think there should be an online mode path that grants a season token after winning a few races each day.

At first, I kinda liked the single dedicated box for each of the racers. BUT as the season progresses, it switches to "who should I now use the token on?" I try to save up as many as I can or have a certain amount before I start to use em. Especially if there is a mission that requires the racer. I did like the old single box for all, since many share the same crew member. But it was a tad bit longer to level the racer up. This split makes it easier to at least get them to lvl 30.

Maybe if there was a better percentage to get the racers/epic crews? long shot but worth a try

  • I like split season boxes.
  • No need. I didn't spent any tokens and got Felix/Vanellope/King Candy to 40 (I stop at 40) and Calhoun and Ralph at 35. Good enough until their racer boost starts.
  • I spent them as they came this season and SPENT ON FELIX. What a waste. Now that I know how this season split works I'll save them all and be better next time.
  • Equally unnecessary.

  1. Doesn't matter since the drop rates are bad and the game have turned to much P2W.

  2. Tokens are more rare after the reduced ranked rewards and the fact that you cant earn tokens at all anymore in events. Because of that spending them on a loot box isn't smart.

  3. Both depending on if i care about the season or not.

All boxes are bad. Also, I have a very big patience with monetization in games. But this is among the worst i have ever seem. I dont like Inside Out and NBC but surely i will need the premium racers for missions. Ridiculous to say the least since you took a way the players freedom in game. I guess it is good you are doing this push but i am not sure it will be enough.

Personally I don't mind as long as it's possible to obtain level 40 across the board. And to unlock all crew members.

That is what I aim for.

I save all my credits for the end and use them on the characters needed the most shards.
Currently have 3/5 level 40s with all box credits remaining

Saving is the best way to make sure you don't invest too much down one character.

What about making a wishlist of sorts so we can get what we really want in those boxes.
By simply letting us pick 1-5 thing and make there drop rate a little better.
This can be applied in all boxes.

1 Season Box vs Split Season Boxes
Why not both?
Honestly, I prefer a single season box. Split season boxes would be okay if the drop rates were balanced, but you have put 5 different season boxes with drop rates of a single box. Additionally, this season there have been 3 epic drivers, so the split season boxes have been a disaster (worse than last season).

Main reasons you do/do not spend Tokens on Season Boxes
I don’t spend tokens on season boxes, especially now that they are split. The drop rate for epic drivers is already low and by the end of the season the common crew is at 5 stars, so there’s a high risk of getting duplicates. Just a few minutes ago, I did a pull on Calhoun: all crew members, and 2/3 of them were 5-star duplicates. Would you spend money (=tokens) for the risk of getting this kind of pull? I wouldn’t

Do you spend your earned Season Box Credits immediately or save them up?
I used to spend my Season Box Credits immediately, but since you introduced Split Season Boxes, I prefer to save them up. Why?

  1. I don’t know what will happen in the second half of the season and which drivers you will require.
  2. What if the driver I like the most is exclusive to the second half?
  3. With duplicates in play, at the end of the season, I choose the boxes where I have the highest drop rates for drivers and crew members who are not at 5 stars. In short, I try to use them in a way that avoids wasting them on duplicates.
    A small unrelated note: please increase the conversion rate for duplicates. It’s really ridiculous right now.

How do you compare Season Boxes to other similarly priced Boxes in the game?
They are quite similar, but not in a good way. Other boxes at the same price have the same problems: they’re too expensive, they give duplicates, and the drop rates are way too low. They’re not worth it. I've always believed that money should be spent on games you enjoy, but today I wouldn’t recommend anyone spend money on those boxes.

Please remove the duplicates from season boxes
Please give at least a couple racer shards in every pull. It's disappointing and outrageous how even after using more and more season box credits, I just get the same crew members (or rather, just a few hundred gold instead).

#

Both the split boxes and the 1 big box should be available. Locking characters away behind tour nodes and events is terrible feeling after buying a golden pass at least the big box gave you a chance of getting those characters.

i dont spend on the boxes because the values are terrible and they are always filled with useless things i dont want in the first place and definitely dont want to pay for. Not to mention the possibility of duplicates should never be a thing for such an expensive box. $5 a pop is ridiculous.

i save my season tokens because you never know what ridiculous lvl requirement Gameloft is going to set and if i spent on my favourite racer i would probably lose out on other rewards. Not to mention the amount of shards available outside of the boxes is pathetic at best.

Compared to the other boxes in the game they are all terrible value theres nothign specifically worse about season boxes vs the others. All gacha boxes are bad especially when you charge so much and give so little. Not to mention the unreliable drop chances. 10% chance to get 2-10 shards tells me nothing except i shouldnt spend on the box tell me what my odds are of actually getting 10 shards.

  • 1 season box was way better, this way we could level up the collection more evenly.
  • I don't spend tokens on them mainly because of duplicates, I always get them using credits, why would I bother spending tokens to get the same?
  • I usually spend them in the end only because of possible objectives in events at the end of the season
  • season boxes usually are terrible value for me. Especially with them being split. Only one box for 500 tokens in which we could get at least 4 shards minimum is something I would dump tokens in. The way it is now? I'm not dropping tokens in it.

  • I like the Split boxes for being able to decide which racer I level up, but also liked the group box for when I don't care what racers get progressed.
  • I'd rather spend my Tokens are guarantees for character shards than chances. Actually, most of the tokens I've spent were used on the Golden Pass or the Golden Pass Credits. I don't think I even have enough to use on a Season Box right now.
  • When it was a single box, I would use the Season Box Credits immediately, but with the split box, I've been saving them in case I need to level up a specific season character

I think the individual boxes should be there initially until you unlock a racer like you have it now, and the individual boxes should remain throughout the season BUT after each racer is unlocked, it should also go into a mixed box so the player base can chose how they want to use their tokens.

That's the amount that should come together from story and chests, with the 10 USD/month season pass (completing the events, all weekly and daily challenges are included, but getting shards from playing multiplayer should be the extra shards towards level50)

Well, we only get a fraction of that, which is deeply sad. It would be great if the odds matched the requirements. One chest or 5 different chests, side issue. The main thing is to work with such odds that this result will be given.

To level up a character to level40 you need 47k upgrade coins. For 5 characters it is 235.000 upgrade coins. You should also give accordingly upgrade coins to the monthly season pass holders.

  1. I actually liked the idea of being able to choose the racer I want to get shards for instead of drawing mainly Felix shards. What I don't like are the horrible odds for getting epic racer shards even in their dedicated boxes. It has been around 2-3 pulls for me to even hope for 2 shards, which is just bad.

  2. I don't spend blue tokens on season boxes. They are way too expensive and gacha-like for what they offer, see above.

  3. I save up all my season box credits, most of them until the very last day of the season. By now I've developed a fear of random high level requirements popping up, so I just use as much as I need and try to win all tour races/events as low level as possible (also because of the lack of upgrade shards). I used to love spending season box credits and leveling up my characters the moment I was able to, but I've really become a FOMO hoarder now, sadly.

  4. It feels like those boxes are ALL horrible value, especially if there's so much gacha and bad odds - worst example right now being "the green connection" in my eyes. Compared to that box, season boxes seem slightly better, but really not by a lot. In boxes as expensive as that I really don't want to see duplicates either, especially not with the bad conversion rate to season coins. It's interesting how in this light the "spend 1200 tokens to get 20 shards of a specific racer" suddenly seems like a good deal, although it really isn't, but at least you know what you get from it.

  1. I often save up Tokens and Season Box Credits depending on the character need in the season and limited time content to maximize what I can possibly attain as a free-to-play user.
  2. The split boxes have made collecting racers outside of the Season Pass impossible for F2P users, which is disappointing as a long time player. However, early on, it did help with leveling up specific players. It would be better to see both types offered, but only if the Season Box has all of the season drivers rather than a subset.
  3. Season and Split boxes are generally a poor value due to the amount of non-driver shards present.

What we have to consider is how many racers there will be per season. I found I am holding back getting season boxes, as well as universal boxes until end of season. Shards MUST be included in boxes. Still very unhappy that seasons have been split still. And that you expect more cash to get benefits from playing championship races, which I refuse to pay for.

zealous spade
#

Since now we are forced to spend real money on golden pass, i think it's time to:

1- I prefer split, but make us to get more racer shards, 2 is too painful and already enough rng in the bix just to feel horrible. Also make explicit percentage for the amoun of shards if you get any of them (example: 30% to get 2 shards, 25% to get 3 shards, etc). Also please remove duplicate like universal boxes do.

2-Main reason to not spend it's bcs they're expensive for low reward. Crew mate shards are ok but racer shards are not worth honestly. Maybe i'll spend if you make them 400 and increase the shards.

3-Mostly save honeslty, i try to get the most value.

4-Support boxes are ok, feels better than seasonal since the amount of shards you can get, but also more rng for (i understand the more risk, less price). Mid seasonal was painful this season, 5% kemit chance to get shards was not worth. Also you still can get duplicates so feels better just to spend on shards (you know how it works, uh?).

Universal boxes feels ok bc you don't get duplicates but less shards, it feels better when you full max crews or racers so you reduce the pool.

Hope you actually care and listen players now, we want this game be still alive.

quick echo
#

I used a golden pass token for both halves of this season, and I've gotten at least 73 duplicate shards on 4 out of 5 maxed out common crew members so far from only the season box coins.

More duplicates have and will come through the King Candy event and the next 2 or so box tokens I will earn before the end of the season. Haven't spent any blue tokens or cash on them.

The balance of racer shards to crew shards needs to change in favor of more racer shards. 15% chance for epic racer drops needs to be raised, and/or raise the minimum in each drop from 2 so we don't have to use so many box tokens on the epics.

  • 1 Season Box vs Split Season Boxes
    Don't mind either way. Split boxes are better for newer players who only want to focus on one character. The drop rates should be changed.

  • Main reasons you do/do not spend Tokens on Season Boxes
    They are heavily over priced for a gambling mechanic and the drop rates are abysmal. Currently they have no value. Duplicates should be removed from the boxes. Also guarantee that the first slot alway contains character shards, and then the last two can slots can be randomized.

  • Do you spend your earned Season Box Credits immediately or save them up?
    Save them up. Your track record have instilled uncertainty in your player base and you've managed to destroy the trust we once had. It feels like we're being nickled and dimed at every turn. With zero transparency I'd rather hold on to the tokens to mitigate whatever requirement you throw my way. The season split made it worse. Just like in real life, if their is uncertainty people hold on to their resources.

  • How do you compare Season Boxes to other similarly priced Boxes in the game?
    Don't spend on them for the same reasons I listed under question 2. Over priced and not gambling on duplicates. The prices have more than doubled for everything since season 3.

Given how plentiful doing the gacha box for candy has been daily (a welcome change), the season boxes hurt to use coins witht he shard ratio is so low for characters compared to the blues. I have no incentive to buy boxes aside from using the purple coins we received in both golden passes. With it being two passes we got a large number of season box coins which meant by midway through the second golden pass, the season box coins became wasted because I would get three commons already mastered. Removing the duplicated or replacing duplicates with say upgrade coins would be a welcome change. I think removing duplicates is a better choice but upgrade coins would at least be something more than the small amount of seasonal coins we get.

  • 1 Season Box vs Split Season Boxes

Split, I like being able to focus on getting shards for a specific character. I do wish boxes had just racer shards and not crew members.

  • Main reasons you do/do not spend Tokens on Season Boxes

I do not spend them, I rather save tokens for the racer shards or racer unlocks in the shop. I do not want to use currency that costs real money to open boxes.

  • Do you tend to spend your earned Season Box Credits immediately or save them up?

I usually just save them up, but try to spend them before the season ends. This way I can focus the credits into a racer I haven't unlocked yet.

  • How do you compare Season Boxes to other similarly priced Boxes in the game?

I do not spend tokens and just use seasonal credits, so I can't compare since I do not spend tokens, and just use credits or seasonal coins if available.

I'm completely fine with the season boxes being split, to give the player an opportunity to focus on one racer.
I also understand why you can't unlock the season box for a specific racer, for obvious monetization purposes. For instance I haven't been able to use my tokens on Calhoun, since I haven't unlocked her (different story)

My actual point
What I don't like about the season box, is that the crew members, especially the useless common crew members, are in all of the boxes. I have done 53 pulls of season boxes, and I received so incredible many common crew member shards, and barely any shards for the racers (11 Ralph shards and 8 Vanellope shards)

Maybe exclude the common crew members for season boxes, since with the recent change to crew members, common members are completely useless.
Only Rare members are being used on racers these days, on primarily those given buff to speed.

I oppened 30 Calhoun season boxes
I got 8x Calhoun shards (on 4 separate drops)

It was not fun

I literally got more racer shards on my FIRST box back in season 5 (Frozen)
Please revert to how it was back then, at least in the % rate

#

Take things back to Frozen season. The drop rates were generous. And I felt like I actually was progressing. Even unlocked all racers and crew without purchasing the golden pass. Bought pass later to max out my racers / crew. That season felt satisfying and fair.

I believe that both options should be available. If we have both split boxes and a box with all of the characters together, everyone would be happy.

Answering one by one...:

  • I like both, already offered varitant with "split season boxes" from beginning of season, and unlocking "all-in-one season box" after unlocking all racers... This becomes harder after season split, so there probably should be separate "all-in-one" boxes for each season part? I would still like a way to be able to get premium GP racer without buying GP, that would really be nice...
  • I do not spend, as they are too expansive compared to Season Tour boxes, and there are usually more interesting things to spend for
  • Last season, I was spending immediatelly during 1st part of season to quickly upgrade few starting racers and crews, and then start saving to have enough to spend on later unlocked racers
  • comparing to tour boxes - season boxes are more expensive, and gives less racers and more crews, so tour boxes are better; comparing to star chaser boxes - star chaser boxes are cheaper but offer very few for the price (only 1 shard of epic crew, only few racer shards), so season boxes sounds better

#

Season Boxes gives their minimal amount for drops way too often than it should.
Please, revert to how it was back in Season 5, the season boxes were fairer. I have not spent tokens not a single time since the drop rates were nerfed.

reef cape
#

If I can spend 10 season coins on a specific character box and only get 8 shards for them... why should I even care about season coins? Boxes are a complete joke in this game.

long thicket
#

Drop rates are extremely low in season boxes to where in earlier seasons i considered spending, but now i only use the tokens.

I like the individual racer boxes, but feel that at least one slot should be a guaranteed racer shard drop. I shouldn't have 0 racer shards after 4 coins pumped into a box.

Finally, duplicates should be removed from all boxes upon maxing. 500 coins a box already feels overpriced to get a pitiful currency conversion on top of it.

remote dragon
#

You've officially made me not want to use tokens are the racr boxes. I opened 10 and got 6 anger shards. This is completely unacceptable losses and will only get worse once I start maxing my commons and get duplicates. My Bing Bong is already level 4 because of this. I'm not buying these to get high crew right now. I'm buying to actually level up the character

wild cypress
#

Season Boxes gives their minimum amount of drops way too often than it should. I have no motivation to buy them with tokens.
Please revert to how it was back in Season 5 for the next season (Pirates of the Caribbean), for i'll be more compelled to buy them for one of my favorite franchises.

#

The new update to Season Boxes is very welcoming, thank you for it, but another major issue still exists.
The boxes drop their minimum amount way too often than it should.
This image is just one example of how often the minimum 2x shards drop occurs.
Please revert the drop rates % of the range between x2-10 shards back to how it was in Season 5 (Frozen). it was the only time it felt fair.

Disney Speedstorm // Season Box Feedback

- Main reasons you do/do not spend Tokens on Season Boxes:
One of the reasons I don't use tokens on season boxes is the price. The price is too high. I would like to see the price decrease and make it more affordable. Another reason I don't spend tokens on the season box is because there should be events instead of using tokens to buy. The more events, the better. And that way we play more than we pay. Here in Brazil, the Brazilian community thinks the prices are too expensive. And unfortunately, it's not worth it. I would like to see an improvement in this area.

**- Do you tend to spend your earned Season Box Credits **immediately or save them up? I've always liked to spend them as soon as I earn them. But since we don't know the level required in future levels and events, I'm saving them and leaving them to use when the ideal moment is.

- How do you compare Season Boxes to other similarly priced Boxes in the game?

By the amount of shards they offer. I only compare them when it's a specific event.Please lower the price. 500 is too much. The Ennui event was an example of how the community didn't like it and that it needs to be improved. Kermit the Frog was also bad. Paying to be lucky on which prize we get without being able to choose is really bad.

A gift with a good amount of shards for Ennui would be really nice.

vital peak

The update for the season box was great. Thank you for that. It really helped balance things, and it helped make the boxes feel better.

The midseason boxes are still pretty low. 15% chance for racer shards is rough. I would like to see this balanced a bit.

I would also like to see the option to use the season box credits on the mid season racer boxes. I feel like that would be a fair and positive change that would give the free to play community, at the very least, a chance to unlock the midseason characters that would normally sit behind a pay wall.

I think the participation level in the Ennui event shows that this would have a positive impact for the health of the community.

Split season boxes isn't a bad idea, but all season's characters boxes should be avaliable at season's start
OR, return to 1 season box system, and block having shard of drivers and crew already at max level

as a founding member i have 32 golden passes. and every season i purchase a new one to support the game. i can finish the vaults without any problem but i still purchase infinite mode to support the game. i'm a good customer.. .so... as a loyal customer this season i wasted my golden pass purple tokens because of the bug. 7 tokens are not much or nothing for me. but you compensated with "1" token. and you compansated it to the players who have not even purchased anything or played once.. that's something i don't like about being a loyal customer. even you divide it into three parts season i will buy to support. but i don't feel comfortable when my purchases gets wasted. i'm pretty sure that this is a true complain..

I have a suggestion on the boxes so far. If we max out a crew member or max out enough shards for a racers, players won't be getting the same thing over and over again over the racer or crew memebr maxed out. They won't be in the support boxes or the special boxes even the mid-season racers. This will also effect how the universal box works on maxing out a crew member or getting enough shards for a racer in the support box or seasonal box.

No more duplicates please we hate duplicates Gameloft make all boxes like universal where once you max out something it won’t show up no more enough with the gambling stuff

Remove the boxes all together. If we want a product we should be able to buy it at a reasonable price. We should not have to gamble, especially with irl money, to unlock items needed to progress in the game.

Can we get a universal mid season box (maybe changr the name of “mid-season racer”)? 25.000 coins each box. Including all mid-season racers

As free to play, you have killed any desire or need to collect season coins. I could only unlock one character. The season boxes are horrible because now I can only get shards for that one character who is almost level 50. So why bother? There is nothing to get. Season coins have become useless.

My last two purple coins: one for Jack bc I need 5 more zeros to level him and the second was Sally hoping purple would be an improvement and need two mayors. This is definitely a problem that needs to be addeessed with three months of a season. Thank goodness I didn't pay to unlock those boxes, just the time spent to do quests.

The return of the chain offer for Violet is missing the final purchase option of the Star Up Pack for 2,499.

Many people only bought the earlier tiers of the chain deal to get to that final one. Removing that purchase tier means people are still not getting what they started paying for Monday

  • 1 Season Box vs Split Season Boxes
    Wait, you mean before there was a chance, albeit small, to unlock Golden Pass racers and the Season Tour Racer as F2P once you played hard all the way to the end of the season to amass Season Box credits? That sounds like a wonderful idea to have kept vs the singular free racer box for F2P who is usually already maxed out by the end of the season.

  • Main reasons you do/do not spend Tokens on Season Boxes
    With a finite number of tokens as F2P, I'm hesitant to risk them on Gacha pulls. Maybe if reranking racers in MPR gave diminished token rewards it might be a bit more feasible, but gacha pulls on a whole is more of a bonus than a target for me.

  • Do you tend to spend your earned Season Box Credits immediately or save them up?
    Save them up since the only box to spend them on is the free racer, but spend them at the end of the season since they expire. Would actually enjoy if those had an token conversion exchange as well.

  • How do you compare Season Boxes to other similarly priced Boxes in the game?
    As F2P, the only gacha boxes I'd consider would be ones for season coins. Enjoying the Vanellope Box this season, but with the unfortunately low 10% chance to get her, enjoyment and motivation to even pull that box is low.

Please do not add upgrade coins to season boxes unless they replace the racer or crew who has max shards. Better yet replace duplicates with upgrade coins in general

If you think I'm gonna continue buying diamond passes only for me to get nothing but duplicate rare crew that I already maxed out after completing every mission. You are sadly mistaken.

Season boxes need to be fixed. They used to give racer shards consistently even for epic. I pulled 15 pooh boxes with ZERO racer shards.

It makes me wonder what the point of diamond pass is if the extra box credits aren't helpful.

Should implement a pity system to the season boxes as well

Don’t give duplicates in the season boxes, especially in part two of the season. The value of the season token is hugely diminished in part two because most of the content has already been consumed in part one. I don’t want measly season coins in compensation for three duplicates - just give me the season token back and let me try again. I just wasted 10 tokens for a 90% duplicate rate!
If the value of the season token is so low, then there’s little incentive to buy the Diamond Pass.

Disney Speedstorm because Cars will not be added to the universal box, given that all drivers from the season are added to the universal box except for mid-season racers. This means that no new drivers or crews will be added to the universal box.

Disney Speedstorm, will we at least have some additions to the universal box in season 19? Or will the universal box simply no longer have racers and crews added to it? That would be terrible and would render yellow coins 3SeasonCoin useless, as there would be nothing to spend them on.

So the box seem pointless now . I think if you offer a different box for people that already have racers max out you might keep some players. But taking the new racers out of the season box was a HUGE mistake. And locking all new racers behind $$$$ is crazy. Were you not making enough $$$ the way it was? Idk what person/persons need fired but, you won't keep players with the way it is now
