@@chrispicard2167 unfortunately that’s not how the function works. It’s a float number not a strict integer that’s being picked. The best explanation I can give is from the coders that brought this issue up in the first place: “Except its not a 100 sided die, its a 100 million sided die. and only is successful on rolls between 99 million and 100 million, which is 1% of rolls”

I use Bubo and they drop very quickly.

@@linekings yeah the atome it self doesn't give damage upgrade towers beyond lvl 50 is what gives the dmg boost so if lvl up carbon but u don't have enough build rate its just useless

every level of the atom raises the max level of the tower by 2. So the ATOM itself does not increase the damage when you level it, it's leveling up the towers that gives you the TD damage.

I feel very attacked now, thanks.

Yes.

Yes

Nah also hate it, got 2 emperirs obols though and the flurbo bonuses are all 60-70% done, the better ones maybe at like 80 or 90 so I'm happy with that

yes if not include the Emperor's Opal

No i have not. but i will update when i get my shit together and finish the party dungeons......ugh.

Congrats!!!

It's really bad

@@Perfect_start i cant wait :)

@@Perfect_start well, nobody's perfect, am I right?

Hey, thanks for the comment! For the time being, I've done a bandaid fix utilizing Nvidia Broadcoast for the recording to reduce echo and background static noise. I've angled the microphone away from my keyboard and mouse to reduce the clicking that you hear. The camera is something that I'm looking to replace as I plan on doing more content that involves 'face-to-face' interaction. The desk is something I'm unable to replace for a while, but I'm keenly aware of the issues I have with my microphone and can't upgrade for the time being. Thanks for the advice!

@@IdleManeZed hey it was just advice, even if a bit unwanted, i admit that. i just like to help small youtubers that have bad audio/video quality. hope it did come over as aggressive.

@@Votexforxme not at all! Good feedback :)

@@bladestorm7433 I’d recommend stamp over bubble. You’ll get a ton of ways to increase bubble levels, stamps not so much

its a pattern at this point, so derriving from past experience i have to assume the situation as is was explicitly intended to be as is by lava. and when this goes as the past events as well, any upbringing will be deleted and the users bringing it up will be banned or perma-muted from the discord.

@@muffimonkey5065 I don't think this was maliciously planned by Lava to scam people - more likely an honest coding/math mistake - but it's still a really bad look for him/his mods to delete posts about it. Something should be done to fix the problem instead of sweeping it under the rug.

This has happened several times in the past - controversial update gets pushed, several people post criticism about it online (both contructive criticism and toxicity), Lava responds antagonistically with full radio silence and banning/deleting any discord posts related to the issue. There was even a time where he had a full blown all-caps mental breakdown on the discord server because of criticism from a recent update (he wrote something along the lines of "F*** YOU ALL"), and proceeded to carpet bomb like an hours worth of posts in the general channel, presumably to remove any evidence of it. It sucks that he isn't receptive to any criticism, it gives an impression that he doesn't take accountability for problems in the game or players affected by it. At worst it could become a legal liability for him if someone decides this is grounds for a lawsuit or his game getting banned in certain countries (I believe deceptive advertising around lootboxes is legislated against in the EU now)

FYI I spent about 50bucks n got just short of stamp and bubble upgrade 3 points short for bubble to be exact I'm guessing if it was correct math I would have nearly maxed the shop but meh

He can toss me the daily stamp pack too now I'll still buy it as well lol

The code that was shown used the "<" operator, which means "greater than". The condition to receive an oyster will only be true if the random float is greater than 0.99

@@Firefox-rd5jz since we are working with a continous number < and <= is the same thing. Your reasoning is entirely wrong.

You have to roll greater than 0.99

Lava would have to change it to a <= operator to make it a 2% chance now it's just greater than .99

Random numbers in programming don't work that way. It's not a discrete set of possibilities. It's any decimal number between 0 and 1 (usually not including 1). So the number will be something like .452158548 or .856545485. Basically an infinite number of possibilities between 0-1. And he is checking for weather or not it is higher than .99.

@@CapnCoCo1 Yeah, while the range is 1% the actual chance of getting a single oyster in 50 coolers is p(a)=1-(1-0.01)^50 or about 39% and for a 99% chance to get a golden oyster you have to open 458 coolers... the 50% chance is at 69 coolers...

No because the code is rolling the odds using a random float, which can generate any decimal between 1 and 0. The odds of rolling between 0.99 and 1.00 are basically 1%. The chance of it rolling exactly 1.00 is next to impossible depending on how the random number algorithm works and rounding up very small decimals. If Lava wants it to work this way (rolling either a 99 or a 100) he needs to use a random integer that lands on discrete values like dice.

the distance between 99 and 100 is 1.0

@whiteblaze12345 it's >. 99, not >=. 99 : it means you need to do roll smth between. 99.0000001and 1.00000. And everything between 0 and .99000000 is bad. So it's 1% ! Even without looking at the documentation, maybe it's rounded somewhere or else, but still, 1% chance anyway

No, it generates a floating point number between 0 and 1 which is a number with tons of decimals and will likely look something like 0.9943634674 for a succesful roll so that isn't the case here. For the same reason it being < or <= doesn't matter. Good question though.

@@trialpears5925 yep lol, have Been correcting before reading your commentary, was thinking in integer ( random.int(0,100)>99), if non exclusive) the second I posted it and reading myself I was "Ho shit" haha". But writing with my Phone that correct everything in french is taking me too much time haha

So forget the first part of my commentary wich is correct for integer. In our case > or >= just icrease the chance if it round somewhere, if not it change something very small

so....did you just not watch the video or.......?

@@GrandEWN did you not read my entire comment or....?

@@Elistios lmfaooooooo you edited the comment to add the second part😭😭

@@GrandEWN Yup I did that 5 min in the video after posting my original reply because I didn't knew about the 1% vs 2% part until later in the video :) but I did edit before your first comment :) That said, I still agree that if it's the case, it need to be fixed and people need some sort of free stuff from lava once fix to make sure there was no injustice and make sure people don't feel "Scammed". I still don't think Lava did this on purpose (at least I hope so) since again, there is nothing for him to gain in doing that but losing people trust that are supporting him on his game. You realize that I was not aware of this drama before I purchased the entire 42 gold oysters and 750 extra cooler and with that supposed 1% I still got 4 rare items I didn't had to add to my slate and I'm literally a 13/15 to finish unlocking my last of the 4 event buffs (so in 2 days I'll be having the 4 of them) so it's not like it's completely broken for 1%, just he need to fix it and give free stuff away to compensate if that allegation is really true.

Wdym?

It's not a hard lock, none of the upgrades are needed to get to endgame at all (although the stamp upgrade is very nice endgame). But I get what you mean, the FOMO is real.

@@user-bi5uf4uy2q it's worse than it was covered up on the discord and he's yet to clarify anywhere, he's definitely aware that people know and he's trying to suppress it

@@darckill5006 is the cooler is 1/100 chance? My en is not that good so i ask this

I got 2 in 80 coolers😂
