Deception
I hate it when EA is not forthcoming about their pack content. Take the Corner Stone Player Choice pack as an example. 5 rounds. 15 cards. The odds state. 92+...23% 90+...52% 86+..93% 84+..100%. S...

Take your most recent comment. You cite packs that state 4 79+ cards as an example. That declaration is absolute. You are getting nothing less than 4 79+ cards. The deception comes into play, when you don't identify the possibilities beyond the described cards. This has nothing to do with how many 80+ 90, or whatever cards are in the pack. Its taking a notification on probabilities of attaining cards that have been identified, and leaving out the possibility that cards below those described may be contained. A 100% draw just means that you are guaranteed at least 1 84+ card. Thats a given. Where is the notification of odds pertaining to cards of lesser value. There isn't any. So the way it is described, is deceptive in not being transparent to the possibilities of cards below 84+. All I said should be done on any pack. Is to declare, this pack may contain cards of lesser ratings than those hilighted. If you have a better or more intuned word to describe what I have proclaimed. I am open to acceptance.
It says that one card is guaranteed to be 84+ overall. That means the other cards are not guaranteed to be 84+ overall. And that means the other cards may be lower than 84 overall. I don't know how this is unclear to you. I think EA is making it pretty clear that the pack may contain lower than 84 overall cards even though they don't actually say it. I'm not against the idea of mentioning it somewhere, but I don't think it is necessary, and I don't think EA is making it deceptive by not mentioning it.
Bud. Just forget this text. You are not seeing my point. So no sense pursuing what you perceive to be all about percentages and assumptions. I think I stated my case as best I can. It has nothing to do with percentages. How many cards are in a pack, whatever. It only had to do, with the given facts stated. Nothing added on stating cards of lower value may be included. You have accepted the assumption premise because of opening packs and seeing first hand that there are cards below the 84. However. If you had never opened a pack before looking at the pack in question. What would you assert to be factual. Keep in mind when you answer that question. No where in the packs description does it say anything about possibilities of alternate cards. Just the probability of getting one of the 4 rated cards mentioned, and the odds of pulling one. Anyway. This whole thing is insignificant. My intention was to bring attention, that EA should clarify the contents more precisely, and not leave it to the buyer to assume its anything less. Appreciate your banter and your counter argument. Good luck in your EA endeavours going forward. Enjoyed reading your posts.
I don't think it would make much of a difference if I had never opened a pack before. The same information would still be available.
And if the pack was named in the same way as the 4x 79+ overall players pack, it would be "Corner Stone 60+ OVR Player Choice Pack". Is that what you want?
Why do you want them to say that the pack may contain lower than 84 overall players, when you already know that only one player is guaranteed to be 84+ overall, which means that the other players may be lower than 84 overall?
