Random number generator

Random number generation is the generation of a sequence of numbers or symbols that cannot be reasonably predicted better than by a random chance, usually through a hardware random-number generator (RNG).

It’s basically saying everything that you get from crystals is random.

Best analogy
World of Warcraft loot drop system. I ran Black Temple every week, except for 1, since the raid launched. Never once did I see WarGlaives Drop. But the one week I missed boom one dropped. It’s a random occurrence that has no outside interference

Thankyou for explaining although from my experience mcoc is no way a RNG based game. They can claim whatever they want only the game coders know the truth.

That’s the essence of RNG you have bad luck some have good luck. It’s random. If you continued to have good luck would you say it was it random or just say “man I am super lucky/I am on a roll with these openings.”

Ask every World of Tanks player :-)
We love this feature in WoT, really love. RNG on everything - damage (same here in MCoC i guess), accuracy, penetration. There is plus, minus 25 % of RNG for almost all parameters.

For example - your tank has specific canon with specific parameters.
Its damage is 400 HP
normal shell penetration is 175 (mm)
there are "gold" shells with mostly the same damage, but higher penetration (those are of course more expensive, much more), but its not important

That means, you can deal from 300 - 500 damage to your opponent. But only if you penetrate his armor and your shell will penetrate from 132 mm to 219 mm of armor. So you can shoot on "paper" tank and do not penetrate him.

There is also feature called overmatch, which says - if your gun caliber is three times bigger (higher) than value of enemy's tank armor, you automatically penetrate. But this is not RNG.

Thats the first time I saw penetration and mcoc in one sentence.

Trivia: RNG can be manipulated, but Not in MCOC (I guess), ‘cause all process occurred in a back end server.

What specifically in your experience qualifies you to make a judgment on the randomness of a game?
