if you open it a tiny crawler will jump out and nibble on you, pretty easy to shoot and kill

maybe its bugged for you

I think sometimes you need to be of a certain class in order to interact with these strange events, sometimes I've been unable to interact unless I switch to a different crewman (in single player). Maybe it's bugged, don't really know.

In the case of the metal crate there's a chance that it will be something other than a hostile juvenile crawler inside.

It can be crawler, but it can also be a normal crate with some mats.

erm usually the crawlers are from a crate, but this is a briefcase thing. and its in a station, usually the crates appear mysteriously in my sub only.

Once when we opened it it was a pet, although I forget which one it was. Every single other time it has been a baby crawler though, and has promptly met its end at the hands of my Revolver (and later on, with much satisfaction I might add, my Handcannon)

One day I hope they expand this event to have like 100+ different outcomes, because it's one of the most common events and certainly has the potential to be one of my favourites if it can be made wholly unpredictable.

Like, I'd even accept it having an infinitesimal chance (0.001% or something) to spawn something like a Moloch or even an Endworm just for giggles. It'd end your round for sure, but it would sure be fun!

Yeah I ought to learn to look at the attached image before running my mouth. Whoops!

I've encountered briefcases before but they've always been a timed explosive, I think. I don't know what happens if you fail the event, I think you gain or lose reputation. I think I've always chosen to report it to the Outpost leader. I think?

If you can't interact with it it might be a bugged event, or maybe you need to find another part of it like an NPC who is talking about it? I think it's possible to get an event where you meet some Jovian guys and then they want you to place or fix a bomb...but that might just be a dialogue based event? Sorry, memory is hazy.

I can already imagine what kinda of chaos that would cause lol, imagine just sitting around in your sub when a moloch just spawns in the ear end of the sub because someone opened a box.

It'd be extremely FUN! And if a game isn't fun, why bother?

My first tought was: Its a traitor box (Delurmine- delurminle- that thing that reads DEL etc.)
because if theres too much crew they spawn with poisons or stuff for traitors, but after reading the comments, it seemed like it was bugged... Just sharing my tought, have a nice day/night!

I have opened a bunch of them, baby crawlers mostly.

The last one i opened said a baby crawler jumps out, but nothing happened, 5 seconds later the medic on the other side of the ship gets attacked by the baby crawler lol.

Well first time i open it ,it spawn a orange boy ,second time i open it after i restart the some round it spawn a baby crawler,so i guess it was a random surprise crate,always wear a DIVING SUIT during opening it,and prepare the weapon for stand by.
