IMO either the loot box machine should be locked behind something for later game or a better idea is increase the amount of tickets it takes to craft a green/yellow/red/purple box.. .Because on day 6.. I got a red ticket, able to craft it the loot box machine and get a tier 5 Bizon. When all I had at the time were pipe weapons. Progression feels off. Maybe you need like 10 green, 20 yellow, 30 red, 40 purple to craft the loot box?
So I switched it to above and changed crafting upgraded tickets from 10 each to 5 each.
