Are Cases PreDetermined??

[Ui]

I was watching summit1gs' stream on twitch and he was talking about cases and he said that cases are predetermined? i was just wondering if this is true. And how can this be proven?

It seems like the contents are selected as soon as you hit 'open case' and the spinning starts (you can hit the X and you'll get the weapon, and you can right click and 're-spin' but you get the same spin each time), but not before that. Otherwise it would be surprising that no one has tried making some kind of x-ray hack that lets you see what is inside cases before opening them.

Yeah because what spiked my interest in this question is if you open a case and while its spinning you can see it skip over skins that were supposed to be rotated on. i dunno tho

Next time you open one, try hitting the X or right clicking. You'll get a gun other than what it starts at if you hit the X. Right click only if you get something good, passing over something good over and over just sucks.

what does hitting X or right clicking do? is it like a re roll?

Hitting X (not the X key, the x in the corner) just closes out the spin and you get whatever you would get anyway. Right clicking and choosing something 're-spins' but its the same spin each time.

Cases are pre-determinded, clicking X just make a now pop up that tells you what you got from that case. The rolling is just for the looks.

thats what i thought

pretty much as predetermined as it gets. right there in that moment you click open the game is fully aware of what you are getting. gotta polish up those turds somehow, though. so you get to see all the crap you want fly by before your very eyes. the best is that gold one flying by first box and then landing on that sweet negev you always wanted but didnt want to dish the dime out for.

Each case probably has an encrypted ID that is used to access the correct gun from the gambling server, so yeah, I guess it's predetermined in that sense.

haha i actually laughed at that

Cases are pre determined... I tried disconnecting before it would land on a weapon and it says cannot retrieve your weapon at this time. When you connect again it automatically gives you the gun that you would have landed on. Its technically not random.. its bs

[FUBARtheGREAT]

its still random to you. its just a presentation to hype it that much more

This isn't necessarily true anymore, in one of the recent updates they noticed people were finding out they were predetermined so if you see a knife, you always get it. There were way to many fake knives going past on the spins before.
Or at least that's what iv heard and seen from experience.
