Fix the pull percentage!

For perspective, if you open 130 standard packs at a 2% success rate, there is a 7.2% chance of pulling 0 diamonds and a19.1% chance of getting exactly 1 diamond. So, 26.4% chance (off by rounding error) of getting 1 or fewer.
That means there is a 73.4% chance of getting 2 or more diamonds in 130 standard packs.
This does not take into account the toppers.

If you are opening packs to obtain Mike Trout, you are doing it all wrong, why would you believe that's a good idea? Even if you got lucky and pulled 3 diamonds, think about all the diamonds in the game and 90+ being harder to pull, you are looking at an astronomically low chance of seeing Trout from those diamonds.

I am from the year 2060. I have purchased the entire collection using DOGE.
The Fernando Tatis Jr Jr is a must have. -
1:50 its a probability not a guarantee

Just opened 130+ packs and got one diamond throughout all of them and 10 gold tops. Fix your pull percentage or I will go to a game that has higher chances. Love the gameplay but come on.
Good bye. If you think packs are there for you to come out ahead, I don't know what to tell you. You ain't going to complete collections or fill your wallet, by buying packs. Either git gud, work the market, or break out the credit card. There ain't no handout.

I went back to check my 2018 pack pulls. I went over 740 packs without a diamond 3 separate times, lol. Probably a lot harder to do that now, that was before listed pack odds.
-
I been pulling a diamond a day for like at least 2 weeks straight minus yesterday got nothing.

No joke. The one issue that needs to be fixed is how often free agents come up in packs. There's 350 or so free agents. There's 40-man rosters for 30 teams, leading to 1,200 players. There's no reason I should be averaging 2-3 free agents per pack (Yes, I know how odds work).

Considering that the FA are common, bronze, those chances are greater than the silver gold and diamond LS.
Checks out sir. It's the card tier, not the team they play for...

True. I wonder how many common and bronze there are in the teams. I still think it's probably off to average at least 2 free agents per pack.

Pro Tip: never buy packs. With money or earned stubs- they will always run you a lose of stubs over a big enough sample. You get plenty for free in game and just save your stubs and buy the players you want. You will never be disappointed again.
Can say with playing this game a lot the last few years you will make out far better in the long run never buying packs.

Diamond pulls are overrated. I've pulled like five or six of them this year, but so far the majority of them were lower rated diamonds that aren't good enough to make my lineup.

And what game are you gonna go to that has better card drops? There is literally no game that rewards you like The Show.
The lowest rewards in this game are still better than Madden or 2K.

Like think about the dude who spends $300 on a game and gets one diamond. Why can't these ultimate team-style games come up with some sort of defense against this? I don't care if the house wins the majority of the time but a $270 gain on a $300 buy-in is just ridiculous. I'd have better odds playing at a casino lol.
They do. In fact. SDS is really good at it.
You can spend $300 and get 450k stubs. You can buy like 25 teams with that. But. You decided to try your luck with packs.
EA on the other hand you can only buy points. Meaning you can’t buy coins/stubs. Meaning you have to gamble your way.
SDS do it the right way.
Already have completed multiple teams. Makes getting the 99 overalls nearly impossible. That's the frustration. You'd think trying your chances on the packs would be something the game would encourage you to do rather than spending $350 on players.
But why do they bother with the diamond animations? It’s all to release chemicals
In your brain to make you buy packs cos it feels good to get one.No, because I've already bought every other player in the A.L. except for Mike Trout and I thought there would be some chance of getting him lmao. But I guess I just have to pay $300 or it's 1 in a million to get him cheaper than that.
You can earn stubs by playing the game you know? I finished the LS collection last weekend having spent nothing but the $106.99 I've spent $ on the game in the past but the NMS thing is more fun/satisfying imo. That said, I don't GAF what people do with their $.

Update - I pulled Trout and Acuna in the same bundle. Maybe my complaining worked lol
