I have a doubt: when I did the last arcade challange I also unlocked the “trophy tee” but I seen in gtaseries video which unlock when u’re done everything.

It’s an a possible bug for my problem to get this sh*tty plushie? 

I had this shirt before last plushie too.

[MisterLanceVanceDance]

Starting to think why it’s so hard to get Wasabi Kitty has something to do with the hidden prerequisites for the RNG to work - it seems like you can’t win Master Hentai, Robot Princess Bubblegum or Wasabi Kitty right after each other, meaning you need to get one of the 1/50 chance anime cats in between winning each of the harder 1/100, 1/150, 1/200 plushies to win

 

I won the RPBG plushie after only 3 tries right after winning the poop cat plushie, my session disconnected and I lost the plushies I had just won - retried next day got the same poop cat, then master hentai now I’ve tried over 1000 times for RPBG again and can’t get it. 
 

Has anyone gotten Master Hentai then either RPBG or Wasabi Kitty as the next win?

i did

 

i got master hentai, then after 3000 failed attemps at the wasabi i got the princess on my first try, later i got the wasabi after another 600+ tries.

[StangOne50]

I have heard 5 people get Wasabi now in last 2 days by not going all the way to the right, and all in less than 500 tries. I am thinking it has to to with the bounce at the end. It dont always end up in same spot. Possibly all the vids we see of people winning wasaabi going far right  is the rare times the claw ends up left enough to trigger the rng. If you cant get it still in thousands of tries then try stopping right before the end.

In my video you can see I do not go all the way to right. All the other vids I see they bounce to the right.

Spoiler

Thats cool I came to pretty much the same conclusion last night, man that kind of actually makes me feel good like I am heading in the right direction...and yeah the claw doesnt end up in consistently the same spot when you go all the way up or to the right. It has some bounce to it. I just dont understand why people seem to be winning it while it looks like they are going all the way to the right. Could there be a really really rare spot to get it by going all the way to the right? Because I just assumed I would do it how people said they did it and I would get it eventually. Maybe people just have been consistently going all the way up and to the right and the one time they happened to not exactly go all the way it grabbed it but they are telling everyone they went all the way because thats what they were doing for most of the time.

 

It really is confusing in the most annoying Rockstar games virgins way possible.

I got Wasaby today! No more grinding this one! Time to practice and get Masterful award(Penetrator).

Master Hentai is 1 in 200

Princes Robot Bubblegum is 1 in 150

Shiney Wasabi Kitty is supposedly 1 in 100 (though there is some contention here, which I think it's due to the "sweet spot" being miss identified)

 

All others are 1 in 50

[InfluxOG]

After some intense testing I have reason to believe the arcade machines, like the game itself, is tied to your internet connection. Thus, if your internet is poor, the chances of you getting Wasabi Kitty, amongst other things, are slim to none.

 

This was further amplified on the Wizard's Ruin game. Where I throttled my internet to test it, and because my internet was garbage, I physically could not pass the spider boss in Grog mode because the hit boxes for the spiders were broken, meaning I couldn't hit them at all but they could hit me.

 

Tying this back to the claw machine, when my internet was throttled, on my second character I couldn't win any plushie at all, when I took some pressure off, I was able to win some. When my internet was doing well, I won every plushie apart from Wasabi Kitty in around 6 hours. But since then my internet in general isn't that good as its being repaired so I tried again on a second character and in 4 days was only able to win 1 plushie.

 

I currently have 10,000+ attempts at Wasabi Kitty and still don't have it on this character, I even have had attempts where the plushie appeared to move as it would when you pick it up, into the middle of the claw, then as it was being lifted it let it go and dropped it back down again. If you factor in this possible explanation, on top of what we know about the Wasabi Kitty's rarity rate is already, it would make sense why some people just cannot get it at all. Now, all this could be pure conjecture, but based on everything I've experienced so far it seems like there's something to it.

how is your claw that far back? or is wasabi kitty forward? the middle of your claw clips through the ponytail quite a bit, mine doesn't even touch it.

I think it just looks like that when you get it. In the attempts before this one the pole lands right infront of where the ponytail meets the head.

But I did see someone say theirs moved. The other day I lost the wiggle I had to stop way short of the back to make it wiggle though it appeared in the same location.

Just passed 2200 tries for shiny wasabi kitty

Finally got the last two plushies I needed and finished my arcade case!

 

Had to write my own PS4 Macro scripts to get Princess Robot Bubblegum & Shiny Wasabi Kitty - if anyone wants them let me know - both macros have been confirmed to work by 2 people now

 

If you insist on doing it the “legit” way, the trick I noticed in every video I had watched for the Shiny Wasabi Kitty plushie is to go all the way back until you hit the back wall, count out 10 “beeps” from the machine as you go right, stop immediately at 10 counts and make sure the claw doesn’t bounce off the right wall - that’s the “sweet spot” I found when I made the macro

Ill take them too, thx!

[JuSuCri]

Nothing for xbox one eh? 

Any macro or something like cronusmax for Xbox? 

[lost-in-emotions]

could it be that if i used a macro i would be banned from R*?

ok, its not abusing a code glitch or gain stuff for a advantage against other player.

its neither a money thing to buy everything i want. its only for a plushie!

but im curious.

After approximately 100 hours of unsuccessful trying, I've finally got Shiny Wasabi plushie on my second character. Kudos to @MisterLanceVanceDance, thanks to his advice about 10 beeps, which helped me unlock the plushie in 1 hour of trying. Whether this confirms that each plushie have it's "Sweet spot", or i was just lucky (if luck is the right word after 100 hours of trying), but it's done. To those of you who are using macros and playing on PC, here's a little something: shinyWasabiKittyCoords := {w: 5000, d: 3775}.

chances of a ban is 0, you are not modding or glitching, you are just using a computer to do a repetitive task.

[lost-in-emotions]

Is it of relevance in wich session i make the macro for the plushies?

invite-only, crew-session, friend-session ... ?

[jamfamalam21]

People have previously mentioned that wasabi kitty moves from her original spot, probably due to the amount of times she wiggles after not being grabbed. Maybe her sweet spot is unattainable until she's moved so you can actually grab her sweet spot? And that's why no one can grab her until ages because her position has to be moved in order to be grabbed? Has anyone actually gotten wasabi kitty in under the first 10, 20 or even 50 tries?

For the 10 beeps thing...there sounds like there's a semi beep in between. Like doo do doo do doo do. I am counting the long beep and semi beep as 1 beep. Does that sound right

I’ve already tries this “beep” strategy,  u hear 5 acoustic noises when u go to the bottom and 5 others when u go to the right. U will pratically stop with the claw just before touching the wall on the right. I have been tryng for two days without touching on the right wall and nothing.

That's what I assumed they meant, there's not enough space for 10 long beeps. However, I can push forward and let it wiggle against the back of the machine indefinitely and it keeps beeping, when I push right it seems to carry on from those beeps sometimes starting on a long and sometimes starting on a semi beep, or anywhere in between... I figure it's probably easier to look at the wasabi kitty graphic on the back wall of the machine and use it for reference points?

There is a boy here who after 3620 tries the day after took him with one attempt. One day I tried for 3.5 hours consecutive to take it and moved forward so the shot is not the same but your is an a good idea.

After more 30 hours I don’t think there is a specific “sweet spot” because otherwise it wouldn’t already “wiggle” at the first attemps..

I guess is just lucky and hours of tryng..simply bulls**t! 

[ZiggyZaggy]

Someone posted a chart on se7ensins showing that the wasabi plushie has a 1 in 1800 chance of being pulled! and I've also seen the same number mention in a video here on the forums, I don't know where that information comes from but it seems a lot more plausible than the possibility being 1 in 100. 

 

Edit: thinking about it 1/1800 sounds totally insane, what would the chance even be in percentage??

True I did see @CarimboHanky say that but I wasn't sure if he was in the same session when trying and then continued on from the previous time and got it on his first try if you get me. @Fun 2 said if the location of the claw is within 35cm of the plushie then the rng from grabbing the plushie is triggered, hence the sweet spot. Still unsure but from what I've read wiggling the plushie does not mean automatic hitting sweet spot. I'm just still very pissed off we don't have a definitive answer on why or what's wrong with this damn plushie lol. Unless @ZiggyZaggy has just cracked it where it's a flippin 1/1800 chance bruh. 0.05̅5̅% when hitting the sweet spot 

Edited January 30, 2020 by jamfamalam21

[JuSuCri]

The problem here is just one in my opinion. The claw never touches the center of head precisely with any “shot” I try. I always tried to pull on the middle of the head for all the other plushies and they went well. 

Wasaby kitty is too deep and claw can’t lock the center and therefore don’t take. 

Maybe that’s why u can take her after some hours, moves forward but changes the shot later. 

I’m sure if R change the position of plushie we will not have problem to getting it. All the people who took it 

were just lucky because like the other plushies takes them without touch the perfect center of the head, thast’all for me. 

This is which why I think i’m going to give up this bulls**t. 

I never seen a video where it’s taken from the center of head...or not? 

I’m almost sure that the macro shot 

Is also not in the perfect center, is it?

It actually started making sense...I was thinking the

wrong thing when I read it but it's 5 up and 5 to the right...I just count it out and the claw is never in the same spot...Haven't tried to many times but maybe with practice I will get good at it...but yeah a picture works better. I just don't think there is one other than the videos of people pulling it. 5 beeps across the top kind of lines up with the video I saw on here so that's what I'm trying.

 

I also don't know if I believe the 1800 number...why would Fun tell us 100 that sounds more like speculation. We need to stick to facts here. I think 1800 makes more sense too but there's no reason to doubt it says 100 if that's what it says.

 

I am going to make an effort to reload the session...I mean I don't see the thing move that much but over a length of time that can make it to where your not even able to grab it...its not worth it.
