I haven't got a free crate, it asks me to pay straight away?

I got 5 regular crates yesterday and two gamescom. I sold the gear out of the normal crates to pay for keys for the gamescom crates with a few quid left over. Might be worth doing.

I think once they unlock sales on the gear from the gamescom crates, prices will rocket for a few hours then crash. Chance to make some cash.

As someone who hasn't been paying attention to all this crate stuff, How does one get them?

 

[SixTwoSix]

Accumulate BP through playing, first crate is 700BP, second 1400BP, third 2800BP and so on, limited to 6 per week and prices reset Sunday midnight.

Gamescom crates require a key which costs $2.50 and they are only running for a month.

Ah so its just the same as the in game ones we've always had? I thought it was something difference/special.

Cheers!

Well there are other clothes and bits that previously weren't in other crates as well as full costumes in the GC crates.

Desperately want the schoolgirl outfit...not sure what that says about me

Ah fair enough, I'll take a look when I get home, didn't bother last night after all the reports of lag etc.

Wonder if I should sell the gamescom crates now or wait until after the event. They might go up in price since you won't be able to get them.

Worth buying and sitting on some keys + Gamescom crates?

Keys will be available after the event apparently...just the crates themselves that are limited.

Yeah. They're going for £3 each but I thought I'd just open them since they're sticking around. Definitely worth it, that's paid for the game itself.

Yeah I got a pair of Blue Hi Top Trainers that are selling for £9ish, people are insane. That said I'm keeping them because with blue trousers, blue shirt and a twitch balaclava my character looks a complete idiot
