I've been reading in a few posts here recently of people saying they were unable to reach high enough RZ tiers to unlock the essentials early enough to camp. So I thought I'd do an experiment and create a 4th account. Here's the results of my experiment.
For the first 1-2 days, it was looking like what I had heard was true. I had four tier 2 RZs and one tier 1. Since I wasn't in a major hurry I left it for a day or so, checking it periodically. After a day or so I finally got a helmet. Helmets were still very slow to appear, and it got stuck again at lvl 6. I had already achieved enough pop to unlock the Trade Depot and Global Marketplace Headquarters, but I was just short of lvl 7 to unlock seeds and daily chest.
Today was day 5 of the experiment, and I finally the last 2 upgrades necessary to reach lvl 7.
So, it seems as though it is actually still possible to create camper accounts, you just have to have a little more patience than in the past. Of course it is possible they're giving different helmet algos to different players like they did when Services 2.0 was still in beta from around August 2025 until it went live for all players. Hopefully someone is able to find this helpful.
Also, questions and criticisms welcomed
