83+ ovr ultimate pack. Cost 150000. 18 items. Break down 91+ 29% 88+ 72% 86+ 98% 83+ 100%. I pulled. 8-83s 7-84s 3-85s. No 86 which was at 98%. You would think that at 98% of 18 cards, you should pull 1. Its why these packs suck. Same garbage over and over. Low ball cards. High expense. This franchise should be in the gambling business. Not gaming. And don't reply its not guaranteed. Odds are odds. At 98% it can't get very much better than that. But apparently not.
The odds are per pack not per card. You had a 2% chance of not getting an 86+ and unfortunately you hit that 2%.
Wow. Thanks for that observation black. And the odds as stated are per card. Chances of getting an 86+ are 98%. Not 98% of pack
2% seems to be the odds of you saying anything positive about the game in the forums as well. EA getting some revenge on ya :)
On the the pack odds screen it says "Minimum probability of getting one or more players of the OVR range or described category in the pack". That means the odds are per pack not per card. Even if it was per card, the odds of getting an 86+ are not 100%. It sucks you didn't get an 86 and I agree with you that the packs are too expensive.
So your premise is. Odd of 98% of getting a pack.?They are stating whats in the pack and the odds of that particular rated card being IN THE PACK! And yeah I do agree with you 98 isn't 100.
Yeah thats it. EA getting revenge on me. Lol. As long as you are enjoying the game. Anything else doesn't matter. Including my quip. Gl in your games.
So your premise is. Odd of 98% of getting a pack.?
No, that's not what blackbolt666 means by saying that the odds are per pack.
They are stating whats in the pack and the odds of that particular rated card being IN THE PACK!
Yes, and that means the odds are per pack. Not per card.
If it was per card, then each individual card would have a 98% chance of being 86+. In that case you could expect to get lots of 86+ cards from the pack. But as you know, 98% is the probability that at least one of the 18 cards in the pack is 86+. So it's for the entire pack and not for each individual card.
But the "per pack" vs "per card" discussion is just semantics. Based on your comments, I'm pretty sure you understand how the odds work, which is more important than arguing about whether the odds are per pack or per card. But I still hope this helps you understand the semantics of "per pack" vs "per card".
No argument. The pack is the vessel which holds the cards. The % represents chances. Each % represents that particular cards chances of being pulled. Its the same premise when they state. Minimum probability of getting 1 or more players of the Ovr range or described category in this pack. The phrase relates to the cards probability. Not the packs.
No. The odds are per pack. Not per card. Everything you said in your latest comment is true, but you're just not understanding the semantics of "per pack" vs "per card".
If the odds were per card, the phrase would be something like "minimum probability for each card in this pack of being in the OVR range or described category". So for example in the pack that you posted about, each individual card would have a 98% chance of being an 86+ overall player. But that isn't the case. 98% is the probability of getting at least one 86+ overall player in the entire pack. Not the probability of a single card in the pack being an 86+ overall player (unless the pack only includes one card). That's what people mean when they say that the odds are per pack and not per card.
But as I said, it's just semantics.
So. Taking your explanation. Its the pack that has a variety of odds. The pack. Has no forbearance on any card. At the bottom of each packs odds. It states. The contents of packs are dynamically generated and probabilities are verified using a computation formulation. The operative word being...contents. The problem in pack description is. Its poorly worded. Taking the pack i described. They put a high probability on obtaining a card of a certain rating. Taking into effect the formulation that they describe. In essence. The pack should contain a number of those aforementioned cards. If you are to put a % on a pack. That % should be a constant. Not a variable. However. You can apply a % on a card. Because there are variables. No variables with a pack in its true meaning. Because its contents are unknown. A pack holds the cards. Therefore. Odds are not meant for the pack. Either way. In the end. Using your pet peeve. Just semantics.
