Important: Higher Chance of Opening Faction Cards Bug
Blizzard just confirmed that there is currently a higher chance of opening faction cards in Mean Streets of Gadgetzan packs. We suggest not opening your packs until this is resolved.
We will update this post when we have more info.
Quote from PlayHearthstoneWe are currently aware of reports of players having a higher chance of opening tri-class cards in MSOG packs and are looking into it.
Mean Streets of Gadgetzan Pack Simulator
We've updated the Gadgetzan pack simulator to be more true to the real thing. I wonder what you'll get!
2 Beardos in 30ish packs; is Beardo some sort of addition to this bug? or am I just that kind of "lucky"?
I will say that I've seen a lot of him opened, including one that I pulled, but I would be surprised if he somehow snuck into the tri-class bug, doesn't really make sense.
Full dust value would be too much and screw people who already dusted.
I am working on a simulator, but my back-of-the-envelop says this is about a 20% loss in value (if you treat all cards of the same rarity as equal). Since Blizzard knows how many packs we cracked, giving us one bonus pack for each five we opened would be about right.
well..I just opened a golden Kazakus so i'm good lol
Lol maybe you should buy card packs now and get a good rebate later. If they allow full rebate dust on the cards its insane. Or as other suggested a free pack.
I guess the EU release will be postponed now because they don't want this poo-poo to happen in another region too.
If thats the case Im done with Hearthstone. Ive waited for 6 HOURS
Oh my gawd PALEEASE back that up. Let that not be an empty promise to the community! I so wish that you're not bluffing and that you really are done. 6 hours...my god that's literally the same thing as the game never coming out.
godspeed
Wtf? and how about people that already opened? I notice I got some pretty crappy cards, even with bad lucky it was weirdly bad...
In what world is this good for Blizzard? This situation is only going to mean bad press and bad impressions on their abilities to launch expansions smoothly. Plus they'll have to fix the issue one way or another through some form of compensation, another complicated mess due to the various purchase quantities for each player. They've never had such weird situation before.
Maybe keep the aluminum hat for another time.
Why are they letting people open packs? Heck, there is not even a warning that I can see.
This is a serious problem that reduces the value of our packs by ~20% or so. Compensation is a must, and they should immediately cut the problem off with a block on opening packs until it gets fixed.
Fortunately, one thing Blizzard does know is how many MSoG packs we have cracked, because it is necessary for the pity timer. Compensation should be at least 1 pack for each 5 opened while the bug was in effect.
That simulator tho
Just for the record, I ended up with 27 Kabal Chemists and 15 Jade Spirits after 50 packs, along with my three Fight Promoters, 4 other epics, Finja, and Han'cho.
No fresh news?
nope. issue got swept under the rug :X kek
Damit, i would prefer not knowing this and being able to open my packs at noon. So much frustration. :D
Got 2 kazakus in my first quest packs. One golden. Plz halp.
Still no response from Blizzard ? Really ?
