I've had one radio from the wall walkers in 5 days and nothing from the horde yet been stuck on 14 for 2 days now, this is the second time in two weeks I've been stuck on 14 for more than 2 days
Only one phone since the herd event started ; completed the optional update hoping that would help... But still zip, zilch, nada.. No additional phone appearance
But I'll try and remain optimistic; hoping the walkers make it rain phones
I've collected 2 radios in 6 hours of killing wall walkers. And doing so every 20 minutes.

I had a total of 29 today (including missions and challenge)...
Crazy algorithms
But with all the token system this should be the normal rate...did 2x15 calls and had just rare survivors in the first call, and in the second I had 8 Glenn tokens, 32 Jesus tokens and a legendary hunter with level 9...I passed the hero tokens
@R2runfast hooray! We can celebrate our two phones! I really would have expected a reasonable amount with the herd event ... I'll provide an update on Sunday (hopefully we'll both have good news)
I got about 3 since the event... managed to get 15, roll and accidentally rejected a great epic assault for tokens (as I've been whining about in another thread).
The feeling that I will need at least 3 more days to even make another call with a low chance of even getting a rare assault makes me want to scream.
I wish we'd at least get a good amount of phones from the herd - like we did last time...

Just used tg's to get 4 silver crates and a gold crate, result was 2xradios and a 4xradios from gold box. No complaints at the moment as i'm at the top of that curve.

How often do You get phones from Gold/silver crates? When i try i dont get and phones Maby i give up to easy? But i got 8 phones from The Wall this weekend event (so far)
The number of phones from the wall are poor, to say the least. The mods have stated that the output of phones weren't changed in 2.0 (and I believe them on 2.0) but it would be great to hear NG admit that they decreased the phones after update 1.10. Multiple times killing 30 walkers at the wall and not gaining one radio?

3/5 crates containing radios sounds weird to me. Openend 40 crates and I got 1x4 radios
I'm getting about 1 phone every other herd. yay. The devs say they haven't tampered with the rate of phone drops, I call a huge BS on that since before the last update, but even more so since then. No, I don't keep stats. But I have been playing this game almost a year and know when someone is pissing on my leg and calling it rain.
Yup definate number fiddling going on had two since Friday morning normally get between 5-10 a day from regular fence walkers so for it to to drop to at time of posting to less than 0.5 a day a great move in tge current climate well done.
I've gotten three radios since the update. Logging in every day to check farms and kill wall walkers and some missions. They had to have made it pay to play.
Im not sure of exact numbers but i have received 50+ radios from walkers at the wall since this weekend event started. And lots of gas.. Maybe luck is not spread evenly across camps.
What was weird in my case was i opened 1 and got disconnected and when i got back in i got same one again, while i know crates at end of mission are fixed at beginning of mission, traiding tg's for crates i would hope is random. This hope might appear to be false? And if so scary in it's implications.

I don't believe NG if they said they didn't change phones with 2.0. I'm a free player who constantly keeps my wall cleared by checked every 50 mins through out the day while keeping my gas below max so I'm always gaining gas and I have definitely experienced at least a 50% reduction in radios from wall walkers since 2.0. I used to average at least 10-15 radios a day just from the keeping the walls cleared and that was at 10 walkers every 50ish minutes. Now I'm lucky to get 10-15 a day including the ones I get from mission crates. In fact most of them are from mission crates now. Its very noticeable with this weekends event, I remember playing last time they did the Herd event which seems to be 3x normal walkers so every 50ish mins you would get 30 walkers and it was a great source of Radios for me, but now you are lucky to get 1 radio every 40-60 walkers at the wall.
Anyways, I'm not complaining since I'm a free player, but just saying if they claim they didn't screw with the radios then they are either ignorant or lying.
After 2 days now, feels like the radio drops per walker at the wall has definitely been decreased. If there is a nugget of truth in NG's statement, it's that the daily odds of getting radios from walkers has not changed...you now just have to tap on 10x the walkers to get them.

@DIblis Yeah, what you open is fixed. I've read about this in other threads and got to test it when I got disconnected by opening three different crates and getting the same result. It may be random, but you get what you get. It's not random per crate opening.
@Governator , I know thats the case with end of mission crates, but for trade good traded crates i would hope it's randomly selected each time. Otherwise their fixing the outcomes well in advance, if true it also doesn't bode well for radio calls as it would probably be the same. It would also mean they can experiment upon each of us in individual manner which is even scarier. Are those getting nothing be prompted to spend?

... Jeez I meant radios!
... What's not perfect is that still only one radio phone all day
But plenty of gas cans! I guess it's better than nothing!
