WHEN will i get a booster pack?!!

[Gyro Zeppeli]

I have been eligible for booster packs for 9 games for months now and i haven't gotten a single booster pack yet. How does this work? Am i to forever remain at level 16?

I've been curious about this, too...

I've only been granted access to 1 Booster Pack the entire time I've
been on STEAM, & I've already got like 50 Games awaiting for
Booster Packs... Technically it's half my Game's List...

Some of these Games I've been waiting for Booster Packs for over
many Years now, & still haven't gotten anything...

Wait for Booster Pack, Sign-In every Day, keep an eye out for my
Green Notifications Box for an Item to appear?

I've done all this, & still am not getting anything, o_@

Funny, the one Game I got a Booster Pack for was a Game
by a Company that basically just up & took peoples money, & ran with it... o_@

The more eligable games you have and the higher your level, the higher the chance of getting a booster pack.

Every time someone crafts a badge for a game that you have and are eligiable for a booster pack you have a chance of getting it.
But so has everyone else who owns the game.

To give you a perspective, with 3000+ eligable games and level 318 i get a booster pack roughly every 1-2 days.

So with just the handful of games you have and level 16 your chance for getting a booster pack are very very slim.
Maybe once a year if you are VERY lucky.

Think of each game as a separate lottery. When someone crafts a badge for that game, a random eligible person is chosen to receive a booster pack.

Every 10 levels increases your chance of getting a booster pack by essentially giving you more entries in the lottery.

Good analogy.
Also, its actually dertrimental for your chances to only have big, popular games eligiable.
Because
A: most of the times the card sets for these games are more expensive,so less get crafted.
B: A lot more people are eligiable for these fewer availalble packs.


Even with my 3000 games and booster packs every 1-2 days, its 99% of the time boosters for very cheap and crap games.
Because those sets are easiest and cheapest to craft for users who want to level up.

Play a lot of games and a lot of hours to get tradingcards

with your level that will take ages... so don't hope on getting one anytime soon.
