Had 15 saved up that I opened after SO4 dropped. It was great. Now I have all DLC from spec war and ghost war crates.
    yea i got the 2 voice packs with ubi credits, that take 58 voices out of crates, is a total of 117 Voice Lines, 50 Emotes, 27 Victory Poses, the good thing was they put in separated crates, nobody want to pay for crates and get a lot of junk items, that was the best thing they do for SO4, and for all crates i opened on the weekend they were all Legendary, i believe i still having like 20 more item to go but they drop from prestige crates, last crate i opened come like this, and the add credits since was no left item to get from crates



    just wonder if at the end of the challenges they will give me a crate, credits or maybe nothing

    Spec Ops Crates and Ghost War Crates are wasted to you, now, GAP... until new items are injected into the pool. The prudent thing for you to do now is not open any of them, and use Prestige Points on Prestige Crates and any non-Battle Crate (Spec Ops / Ghost War) purchases (ie. Limited-Time Offers Packs, Ghost War Packs, Weapon packs, etc.). Any duplicates in Battle Crates are forfeit for you now, whereas, duplicates in Prestige Crates are still converted into Prestige Points which can be used towards any future "Packs".

    Eventually, you will completely deplete the pools and will be simply stockpiling Prestige Points and Battle Crates.

    At that point, give everything to me.

    EDIT - "whereas, duplicates in Prestige Crates are still converted into Prestige Points", SHOULD READ, "whereas, duplicates in Prestige Crates are still converted into Ghost (Blue) Points".

    Are you 100% certain, Mantic?

    The reason I ask is that it wouldn't make sense in the crate economy... you get Ghost (Blue) Points as compensation for receiving a duplicate in crates that have a possibility of dropping duplicates, hence in Prestige Crates. Since there's "no duplicates" in Battle Crates (Spec Ops, Ghost War), then it follows that you cannot receive Ghost (Blue) Points, and the fact that you've exhausted the pool doesn't negate that. That would be consistent with GAP's previous post where he appears to have only received two items, not two items plus one "duplicate" / compensatory creds.

    I got compensation credits for opening 2 crates with only 4 items left (wish I had took a screen shot) I had items split between ghost war and spec ops crates evenly

    I got 133 credits (blue) for the missing item (for both crates)

    I'm also pretty sure if you open a spec ops crates with no items left you just get 400 credits (although I don't wan't to try that)

    due to certain factors you can end up with weird numbers like 5 or 2 for remaining items so if you open a spec ops (or ghost war crate) with a less than 3 unlocks it will compensate you blue credits

    The benefit of first exhausting all the Rare items, and then subsequently exhausting all the Epic items, is that now I get to pretend to have GAP's luck...



    Muahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

    i just did a test, recording all the time just in case, when you run out of items on spec ops crates, they will give you 400 blue credits if you open the crate
