50 farms! No locked boxes!

Is it a glitch? No boxes at all on farms! Not even Gregg's. I'm trying like crazy to find two purple vouchers so I can buy a horse. Where are the locked boxes?

We used to find 2-3 boxes a day with 5 diamonds in them -- now none since the update. We got diamonds more often than we got bolts in the free boxes, now we have had 4 bolts and no diamonds. I smell a tweak --

Tried a shutdown/reboot already?

Mine disappear for a short time after I successfully open one.

It seems that you should return to your farm after unlock a red box to trigger its next appearance.

Got some unlock boxex today, diamonds, vouchers, saw, axe...

If I could I would, they dont even exist? Not on mine or anyone I visit

i get a lockbox on every farm i visit.

and not sure about the diamond thing, feels like after the update theres alot of it, i just got 10 yesterday from 2 lockboxes and another 5 the day before? but i spend about as fast ACCIDENTALLY :(

anyhow the thing is, if its not happening for you, did you

a) press the X?
b) return to your farm after unlocking 1? btw what meonhoc meant is that, after you unlock a lockbox at other players farm, you should go back to your own farm (it doesnt mean the lockbox will be there on your farm that way) do a thing or two on your farm (thats from my own experience) then off you go for your hunt again.

Also, have you totally close the APP if you have accidentally press X on the lockbox?
you might try doing that, it will appear again after 1 or two visit to other farm.

Other than that i dont know, i have no problem with lockboxes except RNG to open it.

mzmflo has a good point.

If you accidentally hit the X, it temporarily disengages the toolbox generator and you need to wait anywhere from 5-30 minutes for it to reappear on any farm, including your own. I rarely need to wait more than 10 so just keep busy on my own farm or shopping till it regenerates. I don't know how true this is, but it seems that spending time on my own farm speeds up the regeneration faster.

Also, as mentioned, once you manage to open a box, you must return to your own farm to reset the generator or else you WON'T see any boxes on any farm. I discovered this shortly after I started playing ages ago and posted about it several times on threads asking your same question. I was thoroughly confused why no one had ever pointed it out before nor why no one was confirming my posts. I couldn't figure out why it worked for me when no one else acknowledged it and began to believe I had a lucky glitch in my game. Since then, word has spread and lots of folks seem to have discovered this neat little design routine to get back the toolboxes.

i have noticed with the update, the lockboxes spawn faster at your own farm.
What you can do though is if the lockbox at your farm is locked, you can X it. it will come back real fast anyhow.

At times, i get like 1 every few minutes on my farm

Hi i'm from CoC

I'll let the team know, but as far as I know we didn't touch the mystery boxes (haven't done that in a year AFAIK). :)

Cheers,

Nick

I don't see boxes on every farm and have tried pretty much everything suggested but strangely enough I have noticed even more opened boxes since the update and like others who have posted, have opened quite a few with 5 diamonds each.

I hope Nick's report doesn't change that! :rolleyes:
