It's amusing reading some of these negative comments... how many of you have spent $$ going out on weekends, partying, movies, etc... and what have you to show for it?!? Yet, paying $200 or more for something that gives you enjoyment for hundreds if not thousands of hours... there IS value to that for some of us.

At least when I go on a week end or partying, I know what I am paying for and I get it. RNG boxes however.... It is not really fun to be cheated imo.
Dear sir, you just robbed yourself. Think about it.I opened 135 scalecaller crates and did not get a SINGLE MOUNT from the APEX OR RADIANT APEX categories. That's $200 without a single mount. These crates are straight up robbery. They have definitely nerfed the RNG every season since the first.

Was actually hoping to see it in game. The pictures do not really give you an idea of how it looks in game. I thank you for the attempt though.

I spend about 200$ every season on crates..../...
I would say players should boycott micro transactions but that time has come and gone a long time ago.

Pretty stupid argument, tbh. Where do you think they would find the money to fix things in the game that's been out for years? Crown store items. Arguing that things in the game aren't getting fixed due to the crown store is pretty idiotic.
That is the ugliest damn thing I've ever seen in this game. I've seen the "ghost" mounts lately, but not these.goldenarcher1 wrote: »Tis a fine beast,but 60 crates?

What is really sad is that this is most likely a real person feeling great about spending 200$ in a video game to get one mount. I'm a bit sad that this is how 'gaming' feels like in 2018, but I guess it's still better than P2W. But then again I'm not too sure if the game is barely playable any more.
What makes me sad is that there are fair struggling hard working people in this world who have barely enough to feed their children...
Then someone blows $200 or even $1000 on a game just to get a bunch of shiny pixels.
Not only that... They go ahead and show off with it...
If I had those 200... I'd spend it on people in need of help. And no, not charity. Directly.
a bunch of shiny pixels.

It is literally the ugliest of the bunch and has swirling leaves and dust and fume-like particle effects. Looks like it was made out of trash. I don’t get it at all.

I mean... you do know you can preview them in game right?

Pretty sure you can't preview the radiant apex. You can preview the apex mounts, but the radiant ones? I don't think so. It looks as though if you can buy the mount with gems, you can preview it. If you can't buy it for gems, you can't preview it either.

You can preview Radiant Apex mounts, it just has to be done a bit differently.
Gem-bought mounts can be viewed from the Gem menu; in order to preview Radiant Apex the player must hover over the Crown Crates in the store window and hit 'R' for preview
this will bring up a list of all prizes, including the Radiant Apex prizes, that can be previewed

You speak the truth and that's why some of us are strongly against lootboxes in every game, but since many people like you spend that much money on them then lootboxes will keep on spreading. You are the one to blame (like many others) in a way, but we could also say that Zenimax is profiting on your weakness to earn money, and this behavior should be punished by law.Ihatenightblades wrote: »its still a shady tactic imo to the community who does nothing but love and support the game.
Of course they will never do that. Because people ready to "spend over 250$" are ready to spend twice that amount to get that shiny pixel that others don't have. This is the tactic. Lootboxes are exactly like slot machines, it's not a nice thing to make you get cool stuff for a small amount of money, it is fully intended to make you spend more money than intended.Ihatenightblades wrote: »I think they should calculate if u spend over 250$ in crown crates you deserve to pick what apex mount you want.

I noticed bugs and exploits got fixed a whole lot faster before the crown store came out as well pretty weird

I personally detest loot crates, but I finally broke down and bought 15 of them. The highest tier item I got was a tattoo. It was a good reminder or why I hate loot crates. I'll probably break down and do it again sometime next year, if I'm still playing.
