Loots linked to deposits

I have the feeling that EVERY single time I deposited I have either globaled or hofed shortly afterwards. And the more I deposit, the more likely I get good loots hunting. However, after I have deposited more frequently(nearly every day) the loot did not change, and I kept getting losse without being able to do anything about it.

I guess MA just wanted to pull me into the game by giving me good loots at the start; and once they would be sure that I would be addicted, they would stop wasting their time and money with me because they think they have an assured money income by my deposits. This theory is supported by the fact that I got a 500ped crafting global when I was just about to make my first clicks...

What about you? Do you feel the same?

I voted no. Perhaps it seems this way as you repair everything, maybe get a new weapon, more ammo than usual? Longer hunts and mining trips typically pay off sooner or later with a decent drop. MA does not reward anyone for depositing.

As said above and before, depo has no corelation. There have been several ATH's by noobs (which im guessing hadnt depoed over $500 combined).

The more plastic eggs you buy from the machine, the more chances you get something you like.

We do all deposits on my account. No solo uberloots for me in 2 years. Nothing over 1,000 peds.

My wifes account, which basically is a non-depositor account, Has had a couple ubers, one 20K+ and one ATH.


In my opinion it has absolutely nothing to do with whether you deposit or not.

Ubers are seen in chat more because they hunt/craft/mine more.


too short bla bla

When I used to depoist regularly one deposit a week my loots at first were better. I got nice globals, some HoFs. I got pissed off when this ended. Game was bad and I lost cash. It looked like game came to the idea: "Ok, this sucker depos each time he has low cash, so if we keep him on low cash he will depo more". So I decided not to be a sucker and not depo. After few days I got back to level of ped card from times I did depo... few globals in one day and I had cash to play.

I didn't depo for over a year when I started to play and by that time noobs didn't get hofs as often as now. I didn't have globals but my loot was good enough to keep me developing and improving things I was using. I was new in EU in times when you could loot vigi or neme parts, and GSI (known as ESI now) was possible to loot from caudaterguses and such... Sure there were days when I sweated, but still sweat was more expensive than now... other long story lol.....

I think that loots can be better after you deposit but it is not case of depositing itself. If you have lets say 70ped and you depo 200ped to do a big hunt for all that cash you are more likely to hit a global than with only 70ped. So it is not the case of deposits itself but more a case of peds you use for one run.
It is same with mining.

Loots come in turns, I happen to have 20 bombs one after other with claims and then 10-15 bombs with no resources. If I take 10 bombs it is likely I will hit few claims and won't survive the no loot wave. If I take 100 bombs I will get several such waves and get claims when no loot wave ends.

So it all depends on how much you can "burn" in one run more than if you depo or not.
