I would love to see the analytics around IAPs during the 74% drop rate! I know I spent $$$3

Neat things in the blog post, including the tease of allowing for new events with the profile revamp. I'm interested in hearing more.0

I have to give a very big thank you to Brigby and the team for this. Not just for the content, but for the communication itself. The teaser was just enough to get some fresh energy, while also indicating that you are more engaged with the forums and the suggested improvements than you can reasonably let on during development.From the Blog:The Player Profile provides us with the base on which to build a long lasting feature set that will provide players with new options and experiences.This is just the first in a long line of updates that will be spaced out over the course of next year, bringing new and exciting features to MtGPQ. Among these updates are Quests and Achievements,Competitive Seasons, and a revitalization of the Color Mastery system. Stay tuned for more info in the future about these new features.
As much grief as the forums can give for any number of things going on, this is a very positive step and shows you're still working to enhance the game experience. Really looking forward to the enhancements!4 -
Finally, a bug the players can all get behind!Brigby said:khurram said:Brigby you forgot to mention the 74% drop rate of MPs and 97% drop rate of mythics from the HOU packs as part of the anniversary celebrations.
But the player base thanks you. Please pass our regards to oktagon. They should do this more often.
That's....actually a bug. Sorry for the confusion. It should now be fixed in the 3.1 hotfix that just went live, alongside the fixes to Lich's Mastery and Gideon's Intervention.

Amazing that that bug can get corrected within 24 hours, but we have to wait months for other bugs :PGabrosin said:

To be fair, if this was a year or even several months back, we might not have been able to fix it so soon.DumasAG said:

Oktagon has been gradually improving the technical capabilities of the game behind-the-scenes, and you can see this put into action with more complex hot-fixes, such as the fix to Lich's Mastery and Gideon's Intervention.7 -
Lich is still broken though. If you bounce it with Rebuke the AI can’t take damage unless it drops it again.Brigby said:

I'm fairly certain the community drop rates spreadsheet didn't cross anyone's mind at Oktagon...Laeuftbeidir said:
But I did find the bug interesting in two ways.
One is that it was very easy to see that the drastic changes to the published drop rates corresponded well to the drastic change in actual cards opened. This should make the published drop rates more trusted by everyone.
The other was a curiosity in the probabilities of a single card dropping as different rarities, which worked out to be:- MP: 10/187 (5.35%)
- M: 25/187 (13.37%)
- R: 40/187 (21.39%)
- U: 55/187 (29.41%)
- C: 57/187 (30.48%)
The interesting thing is that these numbers are extremely close to, but not quite matching, the proportion of different cards of each rarity in the set, which are:- MP: 10/190 (5.26%)
- M: 25/190 (13.16%)
- R: 40/190 (21.05%)
- U: 55/190 (28.95%)
- C: 60/190 (31.58%)
What does it all mean? It's hard to be sure. But, perhaps, if anyone's purpose in buying these HOU packs was to chase one of 3 specific common cards, they may have serious grounds for complaint. :P
