Hey, I saw someone asking about the schedule of the BF players dropping and I think it?s simply connected with real NBA games. Reffering to this, it?d go like this:
Today: CJ & Dray + Griffin & Capela
Saturday: nuggets@thunder & spurs@bucks means we get Jokic&Russ and DeRozan& Middleton this day
Sunday: Magic@Lakers & Heat@Raptors ?? Gordon&JaVale and Richardson&Kawhi
Monday: Celtics@Pels & Indy@Jazz ?? Hroford&Jrue and Dipo&Rubio
I guess my thinking is right, I hope I helped someone and btw which players are you going for? I was keen on Dipo at first but now I started thinking about getting Jokic as i should have enough tokens tommorow. I going to get Tatum from the good drive masters as 2 are impossible for a f2p like me

 

[betaman411]

Yup.. thats what i thought.. might have to spend some stamina/cash to get bf tokens.. most likely will have 500

Why can?t I stop myself from playing Brooklyn?? Seriously ridiculous drop rates for anything more than 2.

Besides the first win, when I have full stamina I always play at least one. If I get two I stop, three or more and I play it again. Got 11 this morning for the first time.

Lol, I get two and double down for...another two. Haha

Ya did that early in the promo.. now with few days left just doing the reliable 3

 

[Stewie309]

How did you get to 100?

Cant u by putting all ur stamina?

100-18 (first wins avg) = 82/3 (avg per win) = 27.333*50 = 1366.67 stamina required.

Starting with 350 ( avg person lvl), adding 100x3 stamina refills + 50 stamina refill = 700 - 200 (first wins) = 500

1367 (rounded) - 500 = 867/60 = 14.5 hr refill so yes, VERY possible. Haha

Edit: throw in login bonus stamina and it?s a cake walk.

That 1st wins number is the minimum not the average it doesn't matter too much but I'd say 20 or 21 is a safe bet to pull each day from 1st wins

Agree but that just makes it easier so not a big deal.

Man, Brian had a bit of meltdown in Josh's discord tonight. He was yelling at everyone for exploiting and promoting the lack of a timer on the rep/coin packs. He even threatened to exclude coin packs from future promos despite the fact that it was their own fault.

I bought a few before the fix went out but didn't think it was worth blowing all of my coins on. I really dig the concept of this promo though. It's tempting to go all in on BF tokens, but I'm holding off and solely using them to speed up my progress on Curry and Tatum. I just hope enough people get Jokic for me to be able to get him off the AH.

Ya i dont get it.. most users wouldnt even know if it is a glitch or intentional.. lets hope he doesn't follow thru on his threat.

Exactly. That's super unprofessional on his part. So what, 30 users on Discord exploit it & you're going to take out your anger on the entire player base? Makes perfect sense, smh. As far as I'm concerned, if you screw up, you blame yourself......not the ppl who gained from your mistake. It wasn't good form to willingly go full steam on the exploit right in his face, but again....it's a tiny fraction of users that were on there. Don't blame everyone

I guess Josh?s filters don?t cover EA **** ups! Haha

I spent 500k coins & 500k rep buying BF packs during the bug. Finished 89 Curry 2 days before I expected. With the rest of BF tickets bought 90 Griffin, sold him for 2 M. I will get Tatum on Sunday. I need 100 BF tickets for 90 Curry next Monday.

Man, best promo ever.

 

[Heatculture]

Come on EA, people get ahead with a bug, that?s fine, that?s just their luck, but make the same pack available so rest of us have a chance!! Rich get richer n all that? Fascism.

 

[gnu]

I honestly thought they did it on purpose for the hardcore players. It was up there for 2 hours, and Brian tweeted out for everyone to be ready at midnight for maintenance. But, I guess not!

How were we supposed to know it was a mistake, anyway? Everything they announce is "subject to change." I definitely don't feel bad for taking advantage. They've gotten plenty of profit from me.

 

[Heatculture]

Agreed mate, all for getting ahead and taking advantage. But it was 4.30am - 7am in London. Man was sleeping!! Haha.

Lol haha, I was asleep too as it was past 4am in my timezone. I woke up and my league mates had over 1000-1450 BF tokens. I've never been so mad at myself for having to do such an essential bodily function. With the coins I had I would have been able to complete at least 1 90ovr without spending all my coins. Now I'm just sitting here watching my league mates post all the great stuff they were able to get lol.

 

[Heatculture]

Hahahaha juke. The pain is real!!! Jealousy ftw

Thanks for the info, makes sense. Looks like the campaign is showing expiring after Tuesday, anyone have any idea what players (if any) may be available on Tuesday?

 

[dub365]

Shouldn't be anything available Tuesday. Only 17 players and they're all up for 24 hours. Curry may be up longer but I doubt it. Tuesday should be a day to finish what you can in the promo

Has anyone tried the elevate bf pack? Whats inside it?

 

[Hetzer]

Has anyone tried the elevate bf pack? Whats inside it?

It might contain Elevate Gordon Hayward, a lot of ppl in the leaderboards have him.

 

[X020179]

Has anyone tried the elevate bf pack? Whats inside it?

It?s garbage. Don?t bother. The Elevate Player pack (the one with the 82) is great though.

Store only? How much was it?

Yeah it's the store cards like 82 Westbrook, Griffin, Butler, Whiteside, and Hayward (OP card for an 82-88) you can train them into any elevate card for 16k TP if you pull one you don't want and the set is 50 tickets a much better deal then the elevate pack I pulled Westbrook and 2 Griffin's on my main with Griffin, Whiteside, and Hayward being pulled on my alt
