The Winter Rock Festival - new update

[nick6901]

but as you know there is a method to this madness (quick clicks) in other item drops.

What is that exactly?

What is that exactly?

That's an urban legend that there are more chances to drop something if you complete several flights at once in quick succession, or collect passengers and coins from the same type of building very fast, etc. Too bad it doesn't really work this way and it never did. But I guess completing several things simultaneously is just more fun than doing them one by one, and that's why the legend lives on.

Thanks for the info.

Since the event started I've only had 2 instruments drop from planes

 

[crescent moon (RIP)]

I think drop rates may be improving, or the urban legend is actually true. (sorry Ivan) I am landing guest planes 6 at a time, and am getting at least 1 drop each time. Doing it yesterday provided zero drops, but I've gotten 5 drops so far this morning.

Oh well - it was good while it lasted. Maybe 5 drops is the limit for 1 session. I've landed 18 more guest planes with no drops. I'll try again in a few hours.

I tried too 4 at a time, and have the impression that I have more drops. This morning I was 5 and now I have 18. Still one heck of a way to go though. 40 is a long way off!

 

[Harcourt]

I have to confess that I have landed guest planes, one at a time, for 8 hours !!
I have had 20 drops to add to the 5 I had previously. I think the drop rate may have been improved today.
However this balances out at 5 drops per two hours, or 16 hours for the 40.

Harcourt

Guys... I have 99/100 jackets and if I receive more from neighbours or find some in the arenas or canpings the small windows pops up saying I will lose the item if I accept.

I can't collect all 100 of them. Might have accepted 1 from a neighbour before I updated my game. Anything I can do?

I suggest you message Freeplay (Ivan) and or Gt City and see if they can help you. Good luck!

Yeah right, just like the drop rates on adventure flights were never changed, those of us playing from the start can see this for ourselves. I'll probably have to pay to complete this one as gi reckoned I'd changed the time on my device, hadn't touched it in nearly 24 hours... Then treat me like a child giving a screenshot of my time settings, laughable nonsense and very sad.

I’m in the same boat. Three drops in three days ... using Sky Captain, Dice, Spy Glass alone and in combinations. The “randomizer” must be set to “almost never.”
Here’s the good news:

For six bank notes you get ten Musical Instruments plus 20 Biker Jackets.
When the quest is winding down, I will spend the bank notes to complete it. I haven’t “lost” a quest in five plus years of playing and 24 bank notes is a cheap price to pay.
Cheers,
Tom

Here we go again... Having to use greenies to complete for the goal is almost impossible otherwise. I get they want to make money for it keeps the lights on but come on! 2 drops and a huge amount of guest planes landed. It tells me there s less than a one percent chance of getting a drop on each plane. That isn't very seldom. That is very rare.

I have finished collecting the dropped instruments.
And I noticed a strange thing - right after I got 40, the drop rate really changed!
I now have 48... Even though I stopped landing as much as I could.
Either the rate changed after the target was met, or it just changed globally.
Very strange.

Drop rate has definitely improved. I've gotten 14 drops in the last 3.5 hours.

I noticed the same thing and I now have 58 - a pity we can't gift them to those in need.

 

[Sazaville]

Just had 2 drops when I land 4 guest planes at the same time!!

 

[Robobobo888]

I hope it's true that the guest plane drop rate has been tweaked upwards. I had pretty much decided to give up on this event until I saw today's posts.

I guess it has. I finished yesterday with 17/40 and today i'm already at 35/40 (most of them in the last 3-4 of hours)

Another afternoon of landing guest flights...
6 from 72* (doing 6 at a time) = 8.33%, so double yesterday's rate. Brings my total to 9 from 150* (6.00%).

*These numbers are slightly better than they actually are. I was landing guest planes at other times (in batches or one-at-a-time) without recording them on my spreadsheet, without getting any drops. Since the bulk of my flights were recorded here, and I captured every drop in these numbers, they should be close though.
