Lottery win - M1 ship
can anyone remember if you could win an M1 ship or smaller novas as run up prizes before 1.4
Ive just been offered a lottery ticket offering these prizes as well as the usual cash prize... BTW i have started the game again from scratch.

I was told the lottery would be fairer in 1.4. I just finished building 13 silicon mines and 1 ore. All over 25 yeilds. I built them under the split home sector cant rember the name.
What I want is to win the lottery to build food factorys an a trading post or equicment dock.
The odds must be better now on 1.4. Thats what all players where told.

The odds are now improved in 1.4. Instead of 1 in 424,689,734,905,876, the odds are now 1 in 424,689,734,905,872. Enjoy your enriched gambling experience.
Actually I have no idea if there were any changes at all to the lottery in 1.4. I also don't recall anyone promising that there would be changes, so I'm not sure where you got your information, Pirate hater.

All I know is that a bloody lot of work went into BBS missions for 1.4

I think the odds were supposed to be somwhat realistic. In other words, you have a better chance of being hit by a meteor from outer space.Myo wrote:BTW: Does anyone know the new odds on winning ANYTHING in the modified lottery yet?

Yes! I have successfully rammed 3 meteors while cruising along at 160+ while paying more attention to my written notes.Carl Sumner wrote:I think the odds were supposed to be somwhat realistic.
