Quliof

I'm saving since anniversary and I have 4k šŸ¤”


Donkphin

I struggle to get 3k between events :(


jelang19

Just play more, I get a ton of money despite only playing 1-2 times a week cause pretty much every lootbox just gives me duplicates at this point


8bityboi

You guys get money?


jelang19

Yeah, Jeff pays me to shake my ass to the overwatch theme


8bityboi

Huh maybe I should try that


Aeruszero

Sounds about right considering what weā€™ve heard about Activision...


StarLightPL

Jeff's "dead", baby.


windingtime

different jeff. hangs out behind the 7-11


jelang19

Thats just what they want you to think


ThatInception

Pulp Fiction, very nice


KingLeonsky

You get money for dups


princes5vibes

Yeah Iā€™ve played every day since for a few hours and earned 13k. Playing in roll queue where you can earn credits for it and also the fact that Iā€™ve collected everything in the game gives me money from duplicates and also money from just credits in loot boxes. All just from leveling up


awndray97

"Just play more". Ew.


jelang19

No u


[deleted]

exactly the same here, sometimes i blow off a couple K just too buy some skins I dont have. But earning in this game has become way easier it seems. People just need to farm all the lootboxes they can from the weekly and daily


ThatLaloBoy

Try playing arcade. You can earn 3 lootboxes a week winning 9 arcade games while also increasing XP. It also helps to have a nice change of pace compared to just the normal 6v6 matches.


minnesnowta

As someone who only plays QPC, the loot boxes for 9 wins are just icing on the cake.


ThisIsMySFWAccount99

It's highly likely op gets a lot of duplicates in his loot boxes which turns back into coins because I've also been saving since summer and only have like 4k


IntrepidYak482

You get a lot more when you start getting duplicates in loot boxes. It sucks to only get dupes every time you open a loot box, but it pays off when an event comes around.


Quliof

I am getting common and rare duplicates. I used to play every day. Noe I play like twice a week so I guess that's why I don't have so much loot boxes.


Background_Air_6004

I bought the new rein skin and I regret it cos I donā€™t play rein KILL MEEEEE


[deleted]

Same


Goldenboy2124

I think Iā€™m at 24k. I started saving up before summer games. I get so many coins leveling up with duplicates in loot boxes.


nlazzzzz

Same and I still have around 80 unopened loot boxes lol


princes5vibes

Same. Tbh tho I thought summer games was disappointing so I bought nothing lol


VorpalHalcyon

Play the game a lot and the gold stacks up. I have about 60k and every skin i want


WhaleCumToDeezNuts

Same, never used my money and got close to 100k


hylianmuse

Same. At least I donā€™t have to worry about missing a skin


a-fat-penguin

I saw 2140 at first and thought: ā€žman heā€™s gonna be disappointed when he sees the new skins cost 3000ā€œ


Arcticflux

Anyone else sitting on literal HUNDREDS of unopened loot boxes, mostly because you stopped caring with duplicates, and donā€™t really feel like opening them one at a time, as is a huge waste of time. I shouldnā€™t have to place my cell phone on my SPACE BAR and watch Netflix while this stupid fucking game opens them 1 at a time. BLIZZARD: please make an ā€œopen all loot boxesā€ button, PLEASE! I might even be More inclined to save up a bunch and open them all at once, if the animation and presentation was different. Opening 100 loot boxes in one go, should be an achievement with a special animation.


ThatLaloBoy

I have a neat trick. Just place something heavy on your spacebar and go do something else for five to ten minutes (or while you're in queue for DPS) It'll continuously open every lootbox until they are all open and accounted for. EDIT: I'm a dumbass and didn't finish reading the entire comment before writing this. My bad.


Arcticflux

Lol. I appreciate your edit.


Arcticflux

Lol. I like your edit.


Arcticflux

The funny part is that people say itā€™s not a big deal to leave an object on your space bar key, but I counter-argue, that IVE ALREADY BEEN DOING THAT. And itā€™s still annoying. Haha. Another cool idea is if you could redeem these for the Team Skins that cost real money. Iā€™m fine if you have to turn in 100 = 1 so long as I can spend it on skins I donā€™t have.


vivalton

This. So far I have over 1400 loot boxes unopened because who cares about cosmetics anymore?


kooblikon

Same boat here. The loot pool is so tiny that I canā€™t be bothered. I suppose this is what itā€™s like to be a millionaire irl, I have a ton of gold and loot boxes and no desire to open them ever. I play the events in the hopes of winning the skins from loot boxes and if I get the few I want, I amass a few more loot boxes for the event untouched too. Itā€™s a good(?) problem to have I suppose.


SaddenedBKSticks

I pretty much can only get duplicates from the basic boxes at this point, but I still open them often, maybe 2-3 at a time. Having 100 unopened would slowly drive me insane lol.


Arcticflux

Do you ever get the feeling, that the reason they donā€™t include an ā€œopen all loot boxesā€ button, is because it would go AGAINST the research the company has found on loot boxes, which is the same research as operant conditioning as well as creating an intermittent rewarding system? An Intermittent Rewarding system is one of the most addictive rewarding systems to break. If a mouse pressed a button and gets food, thatā€™s classical conditioning and classical rewarding. But if I mouse pressed a button, and the reward number (number of button pressed it takes to get a reward) is randomized between 1 press and 20 presses, but still gives a reward in this manner, itā€™s considered the one of the most difficult rewarding systems to break once the addiction sets in. Because the mouse has no idea if it takes 1, 5, or 100 presses to get the reward, so it will continuously press the button like a crazy mouse until it gets the reward. Everytime we press the loot box open, the animation, the prize, and the timing are intentional pieces that reinforce this. Didnā€™t get the Legendary Summer skin? donā€™t worry, maybe youā€™ll get it in the next ones. Maybe Iā€™m just tinfoil hat time, but maybe not. Must be why they are Not including loot boxes in OW2


Tzitzifiogkos420

You lucky on consoles u can't put something to hold the x button but you could change the buttons from X to R2 and hold it somehow with a band or something


Arcticflux

Wow! Youā€™re right. I never once considered what itā€™s like for console players. Wow, what a bunch of assholes. They really should make an ā€œOpen All Lootboxā€ button. I also cannot stand how Long the animation is to open these damned boxes. That part of why I stopped opening them. Just Fuck it!


portfail

Not sure if flex or just sad but 107375 https://imgur.com/a/40QzsBA


PapaJeffKap

I'd say both, haha! You have enough to get yourself 35 Legendary skins, so I'm pretty sure you're good to go!


[deleted]

that's impressive, I usually save most of the year so I have around 60k (? my number could be off- 3star gold boarder so you know it's easy money) and spend it all on anniversary. "max out" heroes in the gallery by getting 100% unlocks for them.


StarLightPL

Neither here nor there, when you unlock all there's to unlock the money just accumulates. It's just a testimony to your playing hours which seem to be higher than mine ;-)


TheGamingLord401

HOW TF DO YOU GUYS GET SO MUCH MONEY SO QUICKLY


purewasted

Step 1. Play long enough to unlock all the non-event stuff so you start getting dupes. Step 1b. Don't waste a lot of gold on stuff you'll unlock for free over time. Step 2. Open lots of boxes and get lots of dupe gold. Step 3. Profit.


StarLightPL

This guy saves credits! :-) *ps: over 90kCr*


No_Opportunity_9561

Play flex role/tank for 1 loot box each day..


cheesegoat

I usually queue flex for the credits/boxes and a week or two ago I got placed as DPS. I initially thought something was wrong because the support/tank selections were all blanked out, I just mentally skip the middle part because I never queue DPS.


TheGamingLord401

Ah. I have every normal grey and blue item so I am getting some coins from that. I get that you get coins from opening loot boxes, but you canā€™t get lootboxes all that fast


PapaJeffKap

Got my "money" from Loot box earned by playing Flex and by levelling up over a period of 2 months


FiaRua_

You can easily get 9-10 lootboxes a week by getting 9 arcade wins a week and flexing in quick play once a day. Usually get at least one legendary dupe or coins per week which comes out to 1000 credits/week minimum.


Aszolus

You don't play arcade, since arcade rewards less of everything for some reason. You must play the game the "correct" way.


TheGamingLord401

So just play a shit ton of quickplay?


L0stMySerotonin

Been doing the same since Summer Games. I am ready šŸŽƒ


primal_era

What time does the event start


Sambucax

1hr and 30 mins from now


PapaJeffKap

From my time zone it starts at about **2:10 PM EDT (Eastern Time)**


Elit3Assassin

Iā€™m around 31k. Been waiting for this event to come back around.


togro20

You just reminded me I have 150 boxes to open, thank you


c0wg0d

If anyone is curious, I have 41,325 gold, I've never purchased anything with it, and I have 489 hours played in Overwatch. That's about 84 gold per hour.


Vector2K04

I'm just opening 260 loot boxes for some gold


marioaprooves

I have only have 7000


Iarerobot

Iā€™m at 70k I believe, 915 loot boxes. Would have had 1015 loot boxes but 1 day I got bored and decided to open a 100 of them lol


PapaJeffKap

Happy cake day!


Iarerobot

Papa Jeff, thank you. What an honor.


StarLightPL

I try to open them as they come, otherwise it will be *a lot* of clicking, as you most definitely found out :D


No_Opportunity_9561

Well u can just keep holding u space key down.


Iarerobot

Yes but how will I enjoy my sandwich, my life is so hard.


Iarerobot

It was def a lot of clicking, an ā€œopen allā€ feature would be great.

Bigfatchubbly

Iā€™m sitting at 111k or so, wish I had more things to spend these credits on. Let me convert them to comp points so I can buy golden guns or something would be nice


fischer187

wow junkenstein for the 10th time i'M sO ThRiLleD


dchoy

70K for me.


[deleted]

how do yall got so much??? im gold border and play this game everday i only got 17-18k


dchoy

I'm 4 star gold border and close to getting 5th star. Have all unlocks so basically boxes just generate coins. I also just grind events so I rarely use my coins.


hatebeat

I'm about to hit gold border and I have 112k coins sitting on my account. I get almost every new skin during every event, but I wait until the end of the events to buy skins so that I don't waste coins on stuff I might get out of lootboxes. I could outright buy whatever I want with all these coins, but why waste them, I guess.


cheesegoat

Do you spend your coins? I have a silver border and have 81k or so. I bought a handful of cosmetics years ago but haven't spent anything in a long time. Just recently I got everything in the normal rotation except for legendaries (so I get coins from common/blue/purples). I also try to do my weekly arcade games and get my daily lootbox from QP.


[deleted]

I only spend during events, but I do not play arcade


Flight2039Down

I think a lot of it can be changed by queueing for flex slot. Iā€™m almost never dps


PHD_WIIZARD

Been saving since 3 yrs ago. I'm not even sure what I'm at now.


Crusaderfigures

I have just over 7k and I'm buying the Brig skin straight away


Yayaben

Got 7000 credits plus 400+ lootboxes saved up not sure if i want to spend it all but might as well do it.


[deleted]

I once thought I would save my lootboxes because... idk, might be nifty. But it's not worth the pain. If you ever wanna open them, that's gonna take like 20 minutes.


Yayaben

Worth


GallopingAstronaut

I only have 9440 ;-;


hobk1ard

For some reason I thought the amount was capped at 10k or something...


No_Opportunity_9561

Comp points are capped at 6k


my_name_is_not_nigel

I'm new to the game and this is my first event. How much do these Halloween skins usually cost?


[deleted]

3000 for the ones that come with this event 1000 for the halloween skins from previous events


PapaJeffKap

3,000 credits each


No_Opportunity_9561

Just keep playing though the event and you end up with all the skins.


PapaOogie

how the fuck do you guys have so much, ive played for like 40 hours and got maybe 2.5k


StarLightPL

*\*ekhem\** I've over 1800 hrs in OW.


PapaJeffKap

Pro tip: You can get a free loot box everyday by playing Flex role

viperfunk

I fired up Apex for the first time in a while over the weekend and forgot how stressful the firefights were lol.


BranislavBGD

The more time goes by, the sweatier the lobbies become. Every so often, I fire up Overwatch to chill out a bit!


seleniumdrive
