    Hi there. I definitely get the frustration with not getting what you want out of packs, but you can also see the probabilities of the packs in the store. That may help set your expectations a little better. Good luck!

    There’s nothing stating you would get any guaranteed legends or high rated cards. That’s why it’s called gambling.

    Just play and earn cards,work the ah, this year is freebie city. Would suck if every one that spends cash could just buy a team
  • first off and foremost when you buy this or any sports game you should get 1 ALUMNI player of your choice for your team.Secondly $120 spent and i received 1 player over 82 and it wasnt even an NHL player.This is just utterly disgusting,these guys running EA should be incarcerated

    Sounds like someone is a little upset they couldn’t buy a few good cards, but instead will have to work for them. If you spent $120 you should have been able to quick sell everything and still come our with a couple hundred thousand coins and then just bought a couple of decent players.
  • What did you buy all base packs....

    Sorry couldn't resist :p

    Some people just need to find out the hard way sometimes still.
  • Not bad. Sometimes opening one more pack has that big one in there lol .

    He must have...some more expensive packs guarantee you a lot more than 82
  • Through the season I must have opened roughly $1,500 worth of packs from all sorts of contests.
    I only pulled 2 notable cards over 93 and the rest were pack fillers. So to spend a $120 and expect the world is laughable. But I re-rolled silver cards and got 2 - 97cards from that.
    I bleed hockey!!!!!!!!!!

  • Packs lose most their value after mid November. Once the dupe ToWs and Primetimes drop added to the base cards and any event items there are just too many items.

    I still like packs and budget $1K to spend on the game over the season but stop buying around the new year and only get through about half my budget. This season was great early on with the guaranteed collectable and event player item but EA didn't stick with it. Like most years, I just lost interest in spending the rest of my budget.

    The guaranteed 2 Gold collectables is fine but Master Sets require so many collectables without the added chance at a player item in the pack ruins any value the pack might have. Event Packs must payout an Event item, it is as simple as that. EA can load them all up with 88 Andy Moogs but they need to be loaded if they want me to play. If EA adds the guaranteed collectable and event player again I'd buy some points and get the packs.

    Work the ah...I love that comment. Just imagine what the ah would be if you didn't have players dropping cash on packs.
  • bottom line is the whole setup is nothing but a GREEDY money grabbing SCAM!The game should have base LEGENDARY teams like the old days.
  • Pulled 99 Bourque in a mega pack from my rival rewards today. Today was a good day.
  • You guys are out of your minds, just saying... Do you realize you are partly responsible why the game isn't improving?

    By doing what? Which guys are wrong and not helping the game? There’s guys on both sides on this thread.

    You realize that once the hut money dries up, the franchise is probably done shortly after, right?

    I'd argue that people who spend money on hut, are a big part of the reason the game still exists, let alone improves. And if you don't think the game makes improvements, you're blind.

    I won't say some things don't feel worse, but if you think there has been no improvements, not sure what to tell you.
