What About Luck?
I pre-ordered FC 27 specifically because I expected to get an Icon who would help me build a strong squad at the start of the game and make the early experience more enjoyable.
But the opposite happened.
I still haven't received the Loyalty Pack that many returning players from FC 26 to FC 27 received. And among the friends I know, most of them have already packed players rated 90 or higher.
As for me? I still haven't packed a player that makes me feel like I actually got something worth pre-ordering the game for. Walkouts are extremely rare, and the players I've received haven't given me the kind of start I was expecting from a game I paid for in advance.
I'm not asking to get the best players in the game, and I don't expect luck to always be on my side.
But when you pay for the game in advance because of specific rewards, and then see other players getting a much better start, it's natural to wonder:
Is luck really random for everyone, or is there something else we don't understand?
