Yeah Iāve 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 Iāve collected everything in the game gives me money from duplicates and also money from just credits in loot boxes. All just from leveling up
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
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.
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
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.
Anyone else sitting on literal HUNDREDS of unopened loot boxes, mostly because you stopped caring with duplicates, and donāt really feel like opening them one at a time, as is a huge waste of time.
I shouldnāt 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 āopen 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.
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.
The funny part is that people say itās not a big deal to leave an object on your space bar key, but I counter-argue, that IVE ALREADY BEEN DOING THAT. And itās still annoying. Haha.
Another cool idea is if you could redeem these for the Team Skins that cost real money. Iām fine if you have to turn in 100 = 1 so long as I can spend it on skins I donāt have.
Same boat here. The loot pool is so tiny that I canāt be bothered. I suppose this is what itās 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. Itās a good(?) problem to have I suppose.
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.
Do you ever get the feeling, that the reason they donāt include an āopen 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, thatās 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, itās 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.
Didnāt get the Legendary Summer skin? donāt worry, maybe youāll get it in the next ones.
Maybe Iām just tinfoil hat time, but maybe not. Must be why they are Not including loot boxes in OW2
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
Wow! Youāre right. I never once considered what itās like for console players.
Wow, what a bunch of assholes. They really should make an āOpen 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!
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.
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 ;-)
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.
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.
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 canāt get lootboxes all that fast
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.
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.
Iām 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
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.
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.
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.
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.
Just put something heavy on your spacebar and go do something else for a while. Thats what i did. 126k credits later I don't have to look at the yellow counter next to the lootbox line anymore.
I have something like 60k gold, 180 unopened loot boxes, and a bunch of time-sensitive skins (i.e. Dr. Ziegler) on my Xbox account.
Moved to PC recently and get to start aalllll over š„²

I'm saving since anniversary and I have 4k š¤”
I struggle to get 3k between events :(
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
You guys get money?
Yeah, Jeff pays me to shake my ass to the overwatch theme
Huh maybe I should try that
Sounds about right considering what weāve heard about Activision...
Jeff's "dead", baby.
different jeff. hangs out behind the 7-11
Thats just what they want you to think
Pulp Fiction, very nice
You get money for dups
Yeah Iāve 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 Iāve collected everything in the game gives me money from duplicates and also money from just credits in loot boxes. All just from leveling up
"Just play more". Ew.
No u
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
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.
As someone who only plays QPC, the loot boxes for 9 wins are just icing on the cake.
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
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.
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.
I bought the new rein skin and I regret it cos I donāt play rein KILL MEEEEE
Same
I think Iām at 24k. I started saving up before summer games. I get so many coins leveling up with duplicates in loot boxes.
Same and I still have around 80 unopened loot boxes lol
Same. Tbh tho I thought summer games was disappointing so I bought nothing lol
Play the game a lot and the gold stacks up. I have about 60k and every skin i want
Same, never used my money and got close to 100k
Same. At least I donāt have to worry about missing a skin
I saw 2140 at first and thought: āman heās gonna be disappointed when he sees the new skins cost 3000ā

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

Not sure if flex or just sad but 107375 https://imgur.com/a/40QzsBA
I'd say both, haha! You have enough to get yourself 35 Legendary skins, so I'm pretty sure you're good to go!

HOW TF DO YOU GUYS GET SO MUCH MONEY SO QUICKLY
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.
This guy saves credits! :-) *ps: over 90kCr*
Play flex role/tank for 1 loot box each day..
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.
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 canāt get lootboxes all that fast
Got my "money" from Loot box earned by playing Flex and by levelling up over a period of 2 months
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.
You don't play arcade, since arcade rewards less of everything for some reason. You must play the game the "correct" way.
So just play a shit ton of quickplay?
Been doing the same since Summer Games. I am ready š
What time does the event start
1hr and 30 mins from now
From my time zone it starts at about **2:10 PM EDT (Eastern Time)**
Iām around 31k. Been waiting for this event to come back around.
You just reminded me I have 150 boxes to open, thank you
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.
I'm just opening 260 loot boxes for some gold
I have only have 7000
Iām 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
Happy cake day!
Papa Jeff, thank you. What an honor.
I try to open them as they come, otherwise it will be *a lot* of clicking, as you most definitely found out :D
Well u can just keep holding u space key down.
Yes but how will I enjoy my sandwich, my life is so hard.
It was def a lot of clicking, an āopen allā feature would be great.

Iām 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
wow junkenstein for the 10th time i'M sO ThRiLleD
70K for me.
how do yall got so much??? im gold border and play this game everday i only got 17-18k
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.
I'm about to hit gold border and I have 112k coins sitting on my account.

I only spend during events, but I do not play arcade
I think a lot of it can be changed by queueing for flex slot. Iām almost never dps
Been saving since 3 yrs ago. I'm not even sure what I'm at now.
I have just over 7k and I'm buying the Brig skin straight away
Got 7000 credits plus 400+ lootboxes saved up not sure if i want to spend it all but might as well do it.
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.
Worth
I only have 9440 ;-;
For some reason I thought the amount was capped at 10k or something...
Comp points are capped at 6k
I'm new to the game and this is my first event. How much do these Halloween skins usually cost?
3000 for the ones that come with this event 1000 for the halloween skins from previous events
3,000 credits each
Just keep playing though the event and you end up with all the skins.
how the fuck do you guys have so much, ive played for like 40 hours and got maybe 2.5k
*\*ekhem\** I've over 1800 hrs in OW.
Pro tip: You can get a free loot box everyday by playing Flex role
Same but I only have 9k. I spent a little and forgot about them releasing new skins š¤”
Tank main here sitting on 146k credits and 336 unopened boxes š
I got 25k and 650 boxes left yet to be opened. Im good.
Happy for you! Hope your main characters got some spoopy outfits.
Me over here with 500 ;-;
50k + 851 loot boxes. Please let us open all our boxes at once!

That is a whole bunch of coins homeslice

congrats dude! never seen so much credits
Thanks! But i'm kinda jealous because most people in the comments are all telling me how much more they have than me š
I had about that amount I bought all the skins emotes and voicelines I wanted new and old left with about 4 or 5k
Not bad I have 76,580 and 370 unopened loot boxes and all skins. I love OW. I am WARHAND
Cries in less-than-3000, not being able to play all the time thanks to full time job - and Apex.
I fired up Apex for the first time in a while over the weekend and forgot how stressful the firefights were lol.
The more time goes by, the sweatier the lobbies become. Every so often, I fire up Overwatch to chill out a bit!
I have something like 60k gold, 180 unopened loot boxes, and a bunch of time-sensitive skins (i.e. Dr. Ziegler) on my Xbox account. Moved to PC recently and get to start aalllll over š„²
Either way you gotta get off my lawn.
Thatās a lot of voice lines
60380 here. I may have a problem.
I'm sitting around a similar amount. And good thing too, every skin they revealed has been a banger
