    I was dumb enough to fall victim to these packs and it cost me big time. Why the sense of urgency releasing the packs for only a few hours if this was the outcome SDS? Truly asking you guys

    There was no urgency imo … But the cards are not too bad imo. I would usually suggest to buy the cards you like

    Just run the c0nquest map a few times. There has never been a 75k pack you should think about buying, at least not in the last few years

    They should refund everyone who wasted stubs on those 75k.

    @YOSHI24_XBL they released the pack with a time limit. That creates a sense of urgency. It literally implies time is running out. So buy now.

    @Rubbaneck34_XBL said in Sick cash grab SDS. False since of urgency.:

    They should refund everyone who wasted stubs on those 75k.

    Why, because they fell for a trap?

    They said this yesterday in their video

    "We have another program that's going to drop after the draft and a Conquest map that's going to have a repeatable mission for the all-encompassing MLB Draft pack"

    I even put it in my thread yesterday before the drops as a recap of the video for those who did not see it.

    That is true but you did, or should have, since you replied to the thread I linked a couple of times.

    I don't know what to tell folks if they refuse to check YouTube or SDS socials. I wish they posted here more often. There was no reason they could not link or announce the video on this forum but they choose not to do that

    Myself and others take it upon ourselves to try and convey information here whenever we can .

    Always a good idea to read the blog posts on the website to if you can't watch the videos. All the info is usually there to.

    I don’t ever pay attention to anything time limited. Just a shady marketing strategy. I’ve noticed in this game since I started playing in 21 that the cards or packs always come back later.

    I do not see that. Every special pack has a time limit … I would not even call it „a trap“, unless you started the game two weeks ago (the only excuse I can think of).

    How you guys don’t see a 3 hour times 75k pack as a trap when the players sell for much less immediately after AND the packs are released on a conquest map immediately following is beyond me. And I’m just an old dude who saw it and panicked. I did learn my lesson though. Regardless… that’s a bad move by SDS as I’ll likely never purchase a pack again because of that it’s just principal

    SDS also knew what they were doing when they placed this 75K pack right in front of 2 free packs in the Show Shop. I doubt too many people fell for it, but I'm sure there were some. Shady.

    I can’t agree with this post more. And also like most posts in here, there’s gotta be [censored] replies. EVERYBODY knows what SDS did here was garbage. A time sensitive pack worth 75k. If that isn’t a trap, I don’t know what is. Anybody who justifies it is just being a [censored]. It was a crappy move, period.

    I don’t usually complain about packs. I know they are usually a terrible idea, but this was the absolute worst thing they’ve ever done with packs since they started Diamond Dynasty. Unreal bait and switch. I’m not mad because I lost stubs. I have millions. I knew it was risky. It’s the principle though. This kind of thing makes me not want to even play anymore.

    I just thought about that again. Could it be the case that there is a big confusion. Yes they urged about a pack to a specific time (I think it was 4 pm) … but that was the prediction pack … and that was a free pack. They did not phrase that for the 75K pack tho

    I have an honest question for everyone.

    Did we really think that they were going to limit all these draft pick cards to a 4 hour window on a Sunday night? As mad as the people are who spent the stubs there would have been an absolute riot if they had done that.

    Limit ? No not at all. But to even sell at all for 75k especially when you are releasing the pack in a small conquest map after is a bit silly. If they could have done anything differently it would have been to not put a sense of urgency on the pack. That’s the issue we are all having
