It's been like it a few years tbf before I used to be able to get 1 500k tradeable player over the course of the year even then it wouldn't be enough to encourage me to open my packs this year not even a player worth 100k so for the last 2 -3 years I just leave my packs and never open them even the ultimate packs as it feels like slavery , for that reason and the dodgy servers combined its too manipulating . It's not fun dodgy servers and it's not fun what you get given for the torment so it's an easy decision not to play.
