EA Sports is trying something new with FIFA<\/a> Ultimate Team, or FUT, packs during their Festival of FUTball event. Starting today, June 18, the FUT store is swapping out all of the packs with new preview-able versions. None of the potential cards from the\u00a0packs are changing, but now you can take a peek at the actual contents of a pack in the store before committing to making a purchase.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s how it works according to a post on EA\u2019s FIFA site<\/a>: \u201cIn the FUT Store, you can select a Preview Pack to preview its contents. It\u2019s important to remember that by previewing a pack, you are not yet making a decision to use FUT Coins or FIFA Points to buy the pack. Note the highlighted sections below, which signal that the pack you are selecting is a Preview Pack.\u201d<\/p>\n Looking at a FUT pack\u2019s contents will give the option to buy it or leave it sitting in the shop.\u00a0Luckily there isn’t a\u00a0cost\u00a0to preview a pack, though if you decide not to buy one that\u2019s already been scoped out, you\u2019ll have to wait for a timer to expire. Once the time runs up for that pack, it refreshes to a new set of contents. The pack will show some of its cards in the store window to signify it has\u00a0been previewed. We should also mention that a previewed pack does not display whether its contents are duplicate items the owner may have in their\u00a0collection, though when you do purchase a pack with duplicates, they can be handled like extras from any other pack.<\/p>\n EA plans for Preview packs to be an ongoing staple in the FUT store during the remainder of the Festival of FUTball, which runs until July 16.\u00a0<\/p>\n This is certainly an interesting way to eliminate the wholly blind aspects of purchasing digital randomized goods. EA has been in the crosshairs of investigations and lawsuits<\/a> regarding this specific practice in the past, some compare the practice to gambling, and EA has even gone to the lengths of\u00a0limiting microtransactions<\/a> in the latest FIFA game. Giving players a little more agency in how they spend money on loot boxes is helpful, but there\u2019s more work yet to be done to make loot boxes fair. Regardless, this is certainly a step in a more consumer-friendly direction.<\/p>\n\n EA Sports is trying something new with FIFA Ultimate Team, or FUT, packs during their Festival of FUTb…<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1594,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"slim_seo":{"title":"You Can Now Look Inside A FIFA Ultimate Team Pack Before Buying - ITTeacherITFreelance.hk","description":"EA Sports is trying something new with FIFA Ultimate Team, or FUT, packs during their Festival of FUTb..."},"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/261527"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1594"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=261527"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/261527\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":261528,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/261527\/revisions\/261528"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=261527"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=261527"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=261527"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\\\"IT\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2](\\\"http:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/logo2-2.png\\\"){kind=logo}
