X-factor booster packs

So about a month ago when the first booster pack came out I had bought one and of course I got the 81 Marcel Noebels card. The first time I bought it so I figured it was fine and I need it on for the set. So today I saw that they had put another booster pack in the store so I bought one. Of course I rip another pack that has a Marcel Noebels card in it. So with a few curse words I swallowed hard and said whatever I will need him for the next pack. I said what the heck and ripped another pack, and guess what I got another 81 Marcel Nobles card. For as much time as I put in this game grinding it to make the coins that I earn and then get the same card three times is just plain stupid. They need to fix this game or I won't buy it again. I'm disgusted that I spend as many hours as I do on this game to begin with. But then to get rewarded for that by getting the same card three times in a row is just playing dumb. I've bought almost all the nhl games from 94. Sad day when I'm ready to call it quits. 

  • I feel your pain I gotten him 5 times in a row for pack I cant choose my X factor player.  Lost 11000 points to two packs of X factor and got two from the Red and two from the green using both times on todays green X factor pack got two more Noebles and last one I got first last week for Wildcard tier 15 I got X factor pack who I get Noebles for total of 5 in a row pure bs EA stealing from me by giving me the same dam X factor player who is not even a NHL player we should be re I burst us

      You guys are the exact reason EA doesn't stop or slow down pushing pack sales so hard. You both got duplicates noebels and continued opening packs and spending actual money. You don't get to be mad at EA for being dumb. If you didn't stop after the first duplicate noebels or after getting the 4 total you need for each set and kept buying and ripping packs getting noebels thats your own fault. To expect to get your money back for not having self control is absolutely insane

        Didn't pay money. Just grinded for the coins. Won't spend a dime on this game cause of crap like this. I don't think as many people spend money as they use to because we don't get **bleep** for it.

    I can't see anyone spending money on this game. When wins are determined by a garbage goal shot from an impossible angle. I genuinely can't see someone say "oh well, I dominated the opponent but he took a great off angle shot through 3 guys, let me buy packs" .

    I'm now locking this thread as it's turned into personal attacks. I have relayed the feedback to the team. Currently, we're not aware of any issues.

    After looking into this further, the reason for Noebels being pulled so often is due to the 81 OVR. With the lower OVR, the chances of pulling this item are higher.
