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%. So by this acknowledgement. The least ranked card you should receive is an 84 rated card. But the pack contains cards below the 84 rating. Which makes me cite this as deception. They should have full disclosure as to what to expect. But this franchise has never been about transparency, or fairness. What they are is. $ mongers, concerned only about the total revenue they can achieve, while the game itself suffers from their neglect.

" My intention was to bring attention, that EA should clarify the contents more precisely, "

With the packs Ea reminds me of a online casino, they give vague descriptions and show u you high probability but in fact the Overall rating of the pack will be **bleep**.

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?

I agree with you 100%. I’ve purchased packs based of the % of the lowest available in the back and gotten cards much, much lower than the lowest stated %. I’m glad you’ve noticed this toodogheels

The odds are stated for at least 1 card in in a pack.
Example. 10 cards in a pack. Description of odds says "chances of getting at least 1 card 80: 50%, 79+: 100%".
3 cards are jerseys, 6 cards in the pack are 74 OVR. 1 card is 79.
The statement is still true. Chances of getting at least 1 card 79 OVR hit. But you fell on the other side of the 50%.
Hope this helps.
