So, as the title says.

I'm a little bit annoyed with it.

Now, there is only one thing I want in the Multiplayer now, and that is the shotgun damage attachment. I've had no luck getting it so far. I've noticed that the uncommon/rare in the veteran packs are always character/weapons, the chance of an uncommon attachment is probably the same as a recruit pack. So I've been deciding if I should get the veteran packsor the recruit packs, but have always gone for the veteran as it would be nice to try out the revelent/hornet, even if they suck.

But after getting no uncommon/rare, I may now just get the recruit packs, as that's the whole point of a veteran, a guaranteed uncommon or higher.

Has anyone had this happen to then? and should I just buy recruit packages for the shotgun attachment?

[Rukioish]

vet packs are broken or some ****. I keep getting blue cards now.

[Jitawa]

Noticed this. The last couple packs have had no rare items. No weapons, No mods, no characters.

I was assuming it wouldn't bother giving me something if I already had it, or something like that (I have lots of maxed stuff).

Personally I'm irritated by the whole Human character x experience and customization options even though I've already level 20 and have all of the customization options for human characters. Hope that doesn't happen in the full game.

same here, no rares or uncommons, and I could do with a Revenant, a few Asari Adept cards, and a few Solarian Infiltrator cards.

Really, the vet pack says it will come with at least one rare or uncommon item or character, but they haven't been. I'd call that a flaw. So here we are reporting it BW.

I think when the veteran packs refer to a guaranteed uncommon item, that only refers to the weapons, which in the demo are restricted to the mattock, phalanx, scimitar, viper, and tempest. If you have those maxed out, it can't give you any more uncommon weapons, but the chances of everything else, such as rare guns or alien characters, stay the same.

Since posting earlier (played four hours), bought... 7...8? vet packs

No uncommons. No rares.

I did get character cards (common) for Hum Infiltrator/adept/engineer (multiple times). Of course, they already had all customization unlocked and they're level 20... so....

In the full game there'll apparently be a point to getting XP for them even after you've maxed.

Glad im not the only one being ripped of by Veteran Packs lol! It says it comes with at least 1 Uncommon or better yet it feels like im paying triple of a recruit pack...

[Balbaroy]

I think you guys have played the demo too much and this is the game's way of saying, wait until release already!

[Drimberly]

Yeah..Seemse to be broken..Just blue cards for me.

[Hirdas]

then i would still like those weapons i do not have yet, besides the two races i don't have .

[Kylina77]

They are not borken, it is just the random system falling back to some default pool when you can't upgrade more.
For example your "random" gave you a uncommon weapon says the phalanx, but you already have phalanx X which is the max upgrade you can have, so you don't get the phalanx XI but instead you fall back to common backup pool.
The all blue card in vet pack is because you have lots of things maxed already.
the more maxed things you have, the harder it will be to have that specifics little thing you still miss.

No.

[JohnDoe]

packs are indeed broken, after playing 5 consecutive silver games (and winning 3 of them)
earned crapload of money..
started to buy packs like mad.. (veteran)
not a single rare/uncommon.
all were like normal recruit packs..
upgrade to normal weapons, missiles, medigel..etc..
no chars.. no better guns..

[KayB1991]

I changed over to a low level character for a few matches and unlocked customization for my drell. Before that I ended up getting no uncommons for about 20 veteran packs or more when I was using my lvl 20 salarian. Not sure if it is a complete work around to it or I just got lucky but it might be worth a try

[PrincessTaco]

I guess I finally hit the magic number of unlocks and started getting all common packs...
My last few went 2 gold (Drell Van, Quar Eng) then the game decided that I was too lucky and gave me 6 packs in a row with nothing but commons. Then I guess it was sorry and so gave me (Claymore) then it said Oooops, screwed up again... here is 3 more all commons with stuff you already have.!!!! Argh

If you are buying a Vet Pack and it says its guaranteed to have an uncommon, you CANT downgrade just because I have all the uncommon that it tried to give me, People will GET MAD... if anything you have to upgrade my pack. OR give me 4X extra (equiv of buying 4 Recruit packs ), like more useful ammo or something. But be logical Bioware.. if you expect people to keep playing multi dont screw them over with your crazy unlock scheme.

I keep on getting cards for characters I've maxed. 'tis vexing. Do I really need another human female sentinel card when I'm already at level 20 and use the Turian more?

[Elios]

yup same here i think im done with the demo now have to wait for the full game

[riddick]

I changed the price of veteran packs to 1 credit
It took me about 850 veteran packs to unlock everything that is available in the demo.
~700 of them were packs that didn't contain anything that I don't already own (like getting 100+ female infiltrator packs,when she was lvl 20 before I changed the price)
The rarest items were widow, locust and reverant, in that order.

Has bioware said how they will respond to tweaking to the bin files?

[riddick]

That kind of thing should be server side, it would be very unprofessional if we are allowed to do stuff like that in the full game

That can't quite account for the fact that I have all the uncommon guns at rank X except the Locust, don't have the Turian Sentinel and still get blues.

What's happening is the game rolls a random uncommon or rare, and if the item is maxed the game rerolls the slot from the full list (ie: recruit pack fifth slot) rather than the restricted uncommon/rare list.  This is most likely a bug, and fixing it would go a long way towards making unlocks less tedious.
