Not getting anything good in packs. Is something wrong with my account?

The situation is as follows:
I stopped playing last year's edition early, because I couldn't get anything good in packs. I bought EA FC 25 and also bought a lot of FC points, and I still can't get anything good in packs, and I see how my friends without buying FC points open packs and get good players.
Does this have something to do with my account? I'm desperate because it seems like the game hates me.

(CM: Edited to update thread title to include more context)

  • Sorry to hear that @prodigy5913!

    For what it's worth, it's not your account at all. The pack probabilities are consistent for all players and these probabilities aren't influenced by individual accounts or your purchase history - as you can see from your friend's pack openings. It's just unfortunate that the packs haven't yielded you the items you've been hoping for yet. Hopefully that changes and you land some good ones soon!

    In the meantime, it might help to understand how item drops work. We have a detailed guide that provides a comprehensive breakdown of pack probabilities in EA FC, including the likelihood of what you might get in each pack, how probabilities are displayed, and how they are calculated. I'll share it below:

    All the best,

  • I've been playing for so many years that I feel like there's something wrong with my account ☹️, if we continue like this there will be no other choice but to quit, thank you very much

    I totally understand why it might feel that way but please know it's not your account @prodigy591. The guide I shared will help shed light on how it all works. When you get a chance, please read through it.

    It's pure luck - for every person who posts about a great pull they've got from a pack, there'll be thousands who have had nothing but fodder. If it's any consolation at all, my son and I have had nothing but fodder since the game started. Our team still has 82 and 93-rated players in midfield and upfront. That said, you can get hung up on getting high-rated OVR players rather than building a team that works well for your style of play.

    I´m past believing in EA probability and such. Whenever i open pack 84+ x5 most of the time it´s 84 players only same goes for 87+ packs etc. Most of the time i´m getting only lowest possible outcome. I don´t see any colors on my cards and if by some mistakes it´s promo card - again it´s just the lowest possible one. I´m sick and tired of it. I´m doing all the objectives, doing SBC´s and buing FC points on top. Still didn´t get any card that would be worth of mentioning. I honestly would buy coins from vendors as that does not scam me so hard as fc points and packs. Unfortunately i have founder account and don´t want to lose it by buying coins. For me it´s the worst game and packs in the francise.
