I actually prefer the packs after having just opened all of mine... I was awarded 23 packs that are 12 items/4 rare. Which are roughly are a little bit better than the packs that cost 8,750 and are 12 cards all gold and 3 rare. That being said, those equal to just over 200k pucks. Out of the 23 packs I might of had a total of 10 cards that weren't gold and the ones that weren't were rare silver.
I can understand why you might appreciate that...but it also makes people LOADED before the game is even out, lol. Not much fun opening the game up and facing somebody's 99 OVR team in your first game.
Yea, the stupid affiliate link is screwing it up. the transfer was a nice feature because I could build my high chemistry teams on 360 then just transfer those over to XB1 to get those harder to get MUT achievements on both.
Wow, that is a pretty decent haul there. How much did you play last year to get 23 packs out of the max of 30? Are the cards tradeable though? People on the forums were bitching that they werent tradeable. For someone starting out it looks like you can build a pretty nice team from those packs but I feel you probably played a bunch of games of NHL 14 HUT to get that many starter packs.
Yeah, that's such a shitty policy. In a lot of ways, HUT is run with no business sense. The entire objective of the mode should be to get people hooked. And if you're just throwing worthless cards at people, the only people you're going to hook are the fanboy suckers (sorry to anyone that offends, lol). It's even more ridiculous when you have pre-order bonuses and EA Season Ticket packs that you can't sell/trade.
I understand what you mean, but at the same time, if someone has a stacked team and can't even get out of the beginning bracket... Chances are they won't be too good. It's like the guys I'd see last year that couldn't get out of the middle divisions with teams of Ovi, Sid, Dats, Weber, Keith, and Rinne.
I'm not positive on the exact number, but I believe it was around 500 games that I played in 14.
From what I have seen it doesn't look much different from the menu in the demo, if you saw that. There are some photos here of the hut cards and menus. Looks pretty barren.
WOW...I am floored. I can't believe they're seriously going to defend all of that with the "people weren't using it" argument. The arrogance to just "decide" that people don't need these features is unreal. Taking out the ability to edit players? A freaking fully automated draft? It's like a
ing communist hockey game, lol. What a piece of shit.Well, yeah...I can agree with that. I guess the larger point is, why even have the European/CHL players then? If you can get an all-star team on day one...there's no point in actually progressing or developing anybody.
Wow...yeah, that second link from OS shows it all. I understand that the design is meant to be minimalistic (Madden's is too). But what's funny (sad) for NHL 15 is there's NOTHING beyond those 7 tiles, lol. That's it. The words on those tiles are literally all there is. Just a total embarrassment this year. I really hope people can stick to their guns and not support this crap. EA doesn't deserve it.
Did you edit that in, because I only saw your post about the fire sale?
That would really be hilarious if it wasn't so sad. EA puts a time limit on the game, then imposes a mode where you can't actually play.
The claim by EA apologists was that actual player likenesses weren't included in the demo because they weren't ready yet. We'll see if that ends up being true or not.
I think an argument could be made that it's been like this for the past 3 years...possibly even 4.
Aww, I read that wrong. I was at least hoping you could be Matt Yayo.
I know it's only $5 to upgrade from the 360 version...but I'm not sure how many times I can do the same thing in that game, lol. Maybe if it were moddable, that would be different. There are some pretty insane Minecraft mods on PC.
ing Comcast service outage. Scheduled to be repaired by 5 am. Second time this week. Love it. I'm glad I only pay $75 a month for internet...with a bandwidth limit. Yay, capitalism....I do have Titanfall and would love an excuse to get Garden Warfare, though since I need to renew my Gold in the next few days, I may not be able to do.
I am confused as to what that has to do with the post you quoted. But if you have Titanfall on Xbox One, would you like to play together sometime?
Where was it, I couldn't find it, then again I was half asleep by the time the game finally downloaded and installed. I didn't play a ton of HUT last year but I figured I would have at least qualified for a few packs.
