The packs should give you all of the cosmetics even the legendary pieces before it starts giving you nothing but consumables. The first game did this so idk why they have to be so stingy with the legendary pieces when they already take long enough to get. i've clocked in at least 300+ hours (longer than the first game) and i'm still missing 3 legendary characters.
Ayup!! I'm only opening 35k plant packs now as I wasn't getting any more items from the 15k packs and want all the plant pieces first. It really sucks when you know there are about 40 pieces you still need and are getting ONLY consumables and retry stickers from these things!!
Sorry, but bamboo shooters and doom shrooms should not be counted as Super Rare. I mean in a typical game those things get taken out within seconds of spawning them. Half the time before they've even had a chance to assist the team. So making them ultra rare is pointless!!
I am tired of hearing people complaining about increasing legendary chances. If the legendary chances decreased during the most recent update than its your fault for not playing earlier. I am hearing people spending 50 million coins a week ago and I barley made 45 million coins and are maxed out rank. This dose not add up. Either you people are lieing about having so many coins and not getting legendary with your "millions of coins" or you actually bought or grinded coins and just have bad luck. You guys are only complaining because you do not have them but its a good thing because it encourages you to keep playing unlike me where I only need those stupid infinity items to complete the sticker book.

Not that I can really talk since I just got the game, but of course people are only complaining because they don't have them. Just like you're not complaining because you have them. Darn, you need those stupid Infinity characters, that you have a concrete matter of fact method to unlock. Every other sticker in the game works in a manner that they give it to you before giving consumables.
The characters you desire are not stuck behind a paywall with a random number.
And to the person who gave the CS example - that's not a good example. CS:GO unlocks work nothing like Garden Warfare ones. And as I stated above, the Legendary stickers are the only ones that work in this way. And by that I mean that they for whatever reason aren't part of the 'guaranteed customization' slots of sticker packs.The 'earned it' example isn't good either. I would assume most people commenting mean the 'deserved' definition of earned as opposed to the 'obtained' definition, as the 'obtained' part is rather implied by most comments.
Take Halo's Req Packs for example. There are different Raritys of Reqs, and the packs work almost exactly the same as the PVZ ones. The exception is that the Equipment slots are guaranteed to give everything from that pack until they stop. While some people may unlock higher ranked stuff first, there is a maximum amount you can spend to have everything.The only caveat I'm willing to concede is that at least none of the packs are lying. None of them guarantee you'll get Legendaries. They should at least have some sort of function in place to increase your chances to earn a Legendary for every pack bought or something. A lot more games seem to do that now.
But in the above regard, yes, no one 'deserves' it. But it's a really greedy move to make when they have characters that are never guaranteed to unlock AND the opportunity to spend real world currency.
You can not fault people for wanting something that they've had to put way more work into that you and still have nothing to show for it. (Yes some things are easier for some people but we have quantifiable currency that shows more had to be done.)
But as I stated this is all coming from someone who hasn't played much. I tend to be pretty completionist when I play games and I'm guessing most of the people complaining are too. It just seems weird to have just a few things that are luck based from the pack when all other stickers are guaranteed after a maximum money input.

People are more likely to give up and stop playing than continue grinding to enter the RNG wheel. Most people aren't going to spend 300+ hours trying to unlock 4 hard to get characters that they may or may not even enjoy playing with. If other people are getting legendary characters easier than so what? everyone has the right to enjoy the game and while they may lose their value what would that change? Is it that you just enjoy showing off that the RNG gods favor you to all the players that play? It's stuff like that that'll make people stop playing instead of playing more.
I've said this before if they want to keep the legendary chances the same that's fine but they need to make it so that when you've gotten all the cosmetics like in the first game they reward you with all of the cosmetics (including legendaries) before they start only giving you consumables. I do not enjoy playing for 300+ hours to finally unlock a character i've been wanting to use since launch just because the chances to get them are so low but i do continue playing mainly because i love the game despite all of its problems that need to be fixed. The legendary drop rates being one of them.- Anonymous10 years ago

I gave up on this game a few weeks ago. I visit the forums occassionally and its the same * all over again. This game has not move on nor has the forum conversations. I like GW2 but it gave me absolutely nothing. If the idea is to improve your characters/rank/collectables and if it gives you nothing - what's the point. I dont like grindy games, I dont mind working for stuff but I do expect some reward. PopCap are completely clueless, instead of rewarding their players they are continually punishing them. I'm really enjoying Battleborn at the moment, at least Gearbox care about their fans.
