How many max keycodes can we carry now?

[TriGlav 2000]

It's no. 2, I had 71 keys, bought additional 10 by mistake and lost 6 keys, salvage and scrip.

Yes they probably did consider it and did it purposely so that things cost more.

1- You get close to the max you can hold and spend to max out. Or...
2- You go over your max and lose the difference.
Either way, its more expensive on you.

I thought they'd raise the max to help prevent this, but I suppose theyre not so considerate

It's not rocket science people. You can buy keycodes in 10, 5 and 1 key increments from the Lock Box vendors and the cost per key is no different (1000 Ark Salvage). If you can't figure out how to avoid losing out on keycode awards with the game as it is then you deserve to lose them.

Nice.
You ignored the fact that the scrip cost doesn't prorate.
Whippersnapper originally asked the question basing his assumption on the fact that Trion doesn't actually profit from keys being bought with salvage and scrip.
So Trion pulling a fast one here and charging the same thousand scrip / key for those last two keys you might need is just smarmy.

Whippersnapper was assuming Trion wasn't being smarmy.

Whippersnapper was wrong in ascribing too much credit to Trion.

Whats so hard to understand about Whippersnapper thinking that Trion wasn't trion to screw us?

I ignored it because it's trivial. Players are actually going to complain about spending a thousand scrip regardless of whether it's 1, 5 or 10 keys when there's a simultaneous 25% free loot boost going on? I made a over a fifty thousand scrip playing casually and selling loot to the vending machines today.

This is why we can't have nice things.

Good thing we're such good friends, as I'd hate to have some internet text discussion without the ability to share a couple of mugs of beer while hashing it out ruin anything.

Math hard?

[Heinzlee]

If Mary has 47 keycodes and wants to buy a golden pony lockbox, and Paul has 63 keycodes and wants to buy a Las Vegas Lotto lockbox, and both Mary and Paul need spikes and stims to feel better about themselves, how long 'til dlc2 is released?

Soon?

haha.. jus being cynical.

Your logic is misplaced. If something costs 75 keycodes you only need space for 75.

Ultimately, of course, that 75 keycode item will actually cost you more as it's very unlikely that anyone will ever get exactly 75 keycodes...so some are going to be wasted.

So Trion...did you consider that when you added the Epic Mod Hoards?

not entirely, if someone is 1 keycode short from 75 ie; 74, they enter into a arkfall and say they get 5 keycodes. 4 of those will be lost

the max should be at 80. because at that max there will be nobody going ever being 6 is the most you can gain. unless they are retarted.

however you can make it 84 because why would u get 10 keycodes at 75? you would prob want 10 keycodes at 74 if you are low on script

They should just remove the stupid cap. Its a game about loot hunting and basically being a bounty hunter, of Ark falls, so why would someone like that only have a certain (and small) amount.

Did you just necro a 7 month old thread to complain about something that's no longer relevant since they're raising the cap to 125 in less than a week? Really?
