Pack odds are manipulated.
-
Regardless of whether anyone believes OP or not the whole pack system is broken or more so pointless.
SDS gives us plenty of free packs but pulling gate keepers is obviously rare given the ridiculous prices of some and the pathetically low price of others . I get it SDS is all about making people buy stubs but here is something to chew on. I opened 35 earned packs today, regular and Ballin....I earned about 10,000 stubs from them. Thats about average. If I spent no stubs on anything else I would have to open over 4000 packs to afford Judge and Ohtani or one could spend $900 on stubs just to buy those 2 cards.....lol its just absolutely ridiculous and funny to think about.
Bottom line is 95% of the live series cards have no use in this game and as time goes on I'd estimate 75% of earned/unlocked cards have no use in the game. This makes the market a joke. Too many cards earn you nothing while making a few unattainable. If anyone has spent hundreds on stubs I'd love to know why.

I think it would benefit everyone (SDSand players) if they found a way not to have two gatekeepers that are WAY more expensive. Spread the cost over many different cards. Cant be done mid-season, but there should be a way to do it.
A bigger problem is that there's no way to use most of these cards - no incentive to have most cards. We badly need another mode that rewards players for having these cards - makes you form theme teams, makes you use neglected cards, etc

@allday9128_PSN shut your mouth. What is your purpose of saying that? Like there isnt a lot to complain about. And I make a post of my own maybe a total of three times the entire year. And when I do, for example making a post to ban the pack glitchers, they are valid posts.

The only way to do that is to increase the odds of pulling those guys. They aren't setting the market values, though the values are high because people aren't pulling them.
But if people didn't notice, the 2 gatekeepers shot up while the other guys went down after the glitch exploiters ruined the market.

What is the purpose of playing a video game if you're just going to complain about it constantly?

Definitely happens. It's not a huge sample size, so you can definitely open 300-500 packs with no ls diamond. I've done it on a couple occasions this year. But, overall I probably pull right around the odds. But I hate this stupid odds they show you I wish they would show us the odds per Diamond cuz obviously it's like what 1 and 13,000 to pull like a 94.95 life series where it's like one out of 30 or something to pull a 85 or 86 I would like to see it all of the live series diamonds odds

I've had plenty of video games, TV shows, books, subscriptions, etc. that I started to not like. Instead of complaining I stopped playing them, stopped watching/reading them, stopped subscribing, etc.
Like I get this game isn't perfect, but the hate being spread around is toxic.

If any of you have ever played an EA sports game like hockey or football you'd realize how much better this system. They are basically GIVING us the players for free. In EA you don't get anything and have to buy packs and they're so ridiculously priced you'd have to save up for a month to get 1 pack.
I agree the odds may not be accurate but in the end this is still way better than EA. It would be impossible to have a no money spent top tier team on EA. Here it is possible.

Pack number 402 without a live series diamond now. Bah pack number 107 with one diamond. Yeahhh right. Sure. I should have did the glitch. Scam artist company

"Bah" packs is just about right, lol.
Why do you think there are so many available, going for teams #1 fan, the repeatable Conquest map, etc.?
SDS knew the majority would be stanky, steaming packs of poo, with every fly imaginable flying around them, the way flies swirl around poo, then dive in! Fruit flies, house flies, pop flies, the human actors who played 'The Fly,' etc.
bzzzzzz! -
@TheGoaler_PSN
absolutely 
. You can literally throw all these packs into a flaming pile of at this point.All jokes aside. Yes they sure are giving us alot of packs and repeatable ways to make packs. They absolutely new! And absolutely have manipulated the odds. Clear as day.
-
As many have said before I’d much rather have far less packs and better odds than tons of packs with terrible odds. They are tedious to open knowing you are just going to be disappointed.
The fact reward paths give out single packs or 250/500 stubs at certain points is laughable. Thanks for the token rewards when Ohtani and Judge are going for over 1.5M combined.
-
@TripleH-4481_PSN the game is completely unrewarding this year unless you are one of the few lucky ones pulling ohtani. Or spending money. And here we go again on June 18th.. the same old offline grinding c r a p coming up. Dq, conguest, mini seasons for another collection. To earn another 75 to a 150 packs with probably zero value or zero diamonds in them. All a waste of time at this point. Stale
I was on the for front saying to ban the pack glitchers. Nah. My view has changed. After opening up 400 packs without a diamond. The uncreativeness of this company and the pure money grab. Yeah they got what they deserved. They didnt ban anyone yet. Next time there is a glitch im jumping all over it.
-
@Ditka06-_MLBTS and thanks to the cheaters anything worth something will be uselss by the time even the grindiest of grinders get to them.
New inning program drops and peolle have the rewards in 8 hours. Those people should all be insta-banned. Clearly something against tos is going on.
The cheat videos so that you can set your controller down and the cheat will perfect perfect pitch after pitch on legend difficulty. Surely they are just going to play vs cpu on legend, setting the controller down, and coming back to hundreds of thousands of xp.
-
@go4stros25_PSN exactly while I sit here and waste my time grinding 400 packs with absolutely nothing!! Bs!
-
@Ditka06-_MLBTS yeah I read tour post about your streak of pack luck, or lack there of. Thats a biblical level of unluckiness.
Job had better luck lol.
-
@go4stros25_PSN its unbelievable. Im literally just laughing now as I open packs.
-
Waste of time is what it’s turning in to for sure. Only reason most of us play is for our baseball fix because the game itself is awful.
-
@TripleH-4481_PSN it is demoralizing. Last night I had around 50 standards, 4 ballin, about 6 deluxe, 5 headliners, and the boss pack from the paxkaloosa program.
I thing I got one Jeremy pena. And every deluxe pack was baseround fodder.
I saw a streamer (the annoying blonde guy that usually plays madden) grt 2 ohtanis in a span of like 3 standard packs.
