Please take the 4 hour cooldowns off of events

[bartman2207]

There’s literally no point in having an event if you have to wait every 4 hours to have a (not guaranteed) chance at getting a seemingly impossible to drop Halloween ticket.
(or at least in my case) (usually just a crate)
And you need 5 of them on top of that.

The point of the event is to bring more people in to see the Halloween update and the seasonal items, right? I don’t see any good reason why you’d want the community of your game to actually play it less?
I want my time spent in the game to feel rewarded! Not punished with cool downs for playing too long.

I'm pretty that the cooldowns for ticket in event is one hour. Always have been for has long that I can remember... A bug maybe? I'll look into it right away. I'll ask friends to.

I just tested it.
The ticket wasn't showned in upper left corner like usual after one hour or so
But I still received a ticket. Did you check your steam inventory?
Cause it's rather odd

From top of my head it is 6 hours cooldown for drops in normal time. reduced to 4 hours during events, with a different drop pool for event tickets and crates/usb/skins.

Then I'm ubber lucky.

Also it is not a guaranteed drop, and you require at least 30 minutes of play to be able to receive a new ticket.
Some people say it is 3 hours cooldown + 30 minutes of play from what I can see on google. That might be. Anyway The event stays up for very long time and you can have lot of tickets easily, as I already said in the other thread you opened about this exact 'issue'.

Event Ends on 11 / 5 / 2019
