I wouldn't have a problem with it, but EA still sells these Standard Battlepack Ultimate Revision battlepacks for real money.
Microtransaction
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microtransaction
Microtransactions, sometimes abbreviated as mtx, are a business model where users can purchase virtual goods with micropayments within a game.
Legislative efforts to regulate microtransactions
The implementation of microtransactions and the subsequent backlash from gamers and the gaming media have caused governments from all around the world to look into these games and their microtransaction mechanics. In April 2018, the Netherlands and Belgium banned the sale of microtransactions in games sold in their countries. The specific games Belgium looked closer at were EA's Star Wars Battlefront II (2017) and FIFA 18, Overwatch, and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive developed by Valve. All of those game's microtransactions, except for Star Wars Battlefront II which removed their gameplay-altering microtransactions in March 2018 (but kept cosmetic microtransactions) due to players calculating that it would take over 48 hours of playing to obtain Luke Skywalker and then complaining about this extreme threshold to unlock popular characters to EA, have been determined to be "games of chance" by the Belgian government. As such, they are highly regulated by the Belgian government under their gambling laws.

[Edit, no mass tagging please - Admin.]Is the EA's official response in this case that there is no response?
My problem is the unfair microtransaction for rare legendary skins with real money, which deceives the BF1 player community.
The BF1 player buys the Standard Battlepack Ultimate Revision for two euros, but EA does not specifically draw attention to the fact that a third of the legendary skins cannot be obtained in such a paid way.
The fair procedure by EA would be if the entire contents of Standard Battlepack Ultimate Revision (the price is 2€) were made public.- HUN_gattaca_lg2 years agoSeasoned Ace

this is a old Hungarian proverb:
"Do it yourself sir, if you have not servant." ("Magad uram, ha szolgád nincs.")
I collect what skins are dropped from the Standard Battlepack Ultimate Revision.
my screenshot (version 2024.01.02 13:30 UTC), these 50 skins are available from standard battlepacks
