General Drop rate neighbors

[RicoB92]

Hi there,

Is there anyone else facing the problem of bad drop rates at neighbor visits?
Over the last week I only had a maximum of 4 space crates each day, while visiting 50 planetarium a day..

Is there a way to have a better drop rate?

Try varying the time of the day you do your visits...
And in my opinion, more important than the number of chests you collect is the number of items dropped

4 per day is not so bad, there’s no way to increase drops from neighbors cities.

From my experience (just my fillings) if planetarium drops bad try to visit training centers.

I get 5-6 a day from 60 visits so that seems pretty average. Back before they fixed the bug with golden dice you could get 30-40 a day pretty easy. I only did it a couple times but the drop rates were insane

This is normal one of my accounts from long time every week there is one day zero drop when i visit neighbors i think this happen also with others.

Do you visit the same Planetariums each day? It is a known fact that if you visit the same day stuff after day the drops will be poor.

Is this true? If you visit the same neighbors and the same (let’s say planetariums) each day the drops are lower?

Can anyone else confirm/corroborate?

Yes I have proved it and so have many others.

I’m not so sure. I always visit (almost) the same neighbors, only for planetariums. I didn’t notice drop rates to be lower just for that. I did notice some differences regarding the moment when I do my visits. It really doesn’t make sense according to the randomness inherent to the process, it must be a spurious correlation but nevertheless I try to avoid visiting neighbors too close to reset time

No. Of course it’s not true. This is up there with Nav’s rare item theory. Any idea how hard this would be to program in a game described by a developer as “buggy at the best of times”.

Sometimes you get lots of drops, sometimes you get few. It’s called variance. If there were a guaranteed formula, it would be boring.

Can we start a conspiracy thread to keep all this nonsense together?

Thank you!
I visit pretty much the same neighbors every day. Some days, I may get a drop from every planetarium I click on, sometimes I get 0 drops from all 5. Different every time.

I figured but ya never know. I tend to visit the same neighbors clicking on the same buildings or set of buildings (like recently I changed from planetariums to training centers and stone castles as I’m doing greens).

I dont know. I always visit different neighbour everyday and often close to reset time. Its different every day. Never noticed the drop rates. Just kick click and go.
