Why does the card pack opening in this game hide half the cards?

-

I really dislike how card packs are revealed in this game. When you open a pack, four cards quickly fly across the screen but then the game only shows you two of them plus some random joke. Why can’t we scroll through all four cards afterward to actually see the full contents? It feels like half the cards are hidden, which is frustrating—like opening a Magic the Gathering pack and tossing half the cards without looking. Is anyone else annoyed by this or am I just being picky?

I totally get where you’re coming from! The pack opening animation can be pretty annoying, especially when it just flashes through the cards so fast. The good news is once you hit a certain level, you can hit the escape key to speed through or skip the animation entirely, which makes it less irritating when you’re opening tons of packs.

Yeah, I just recently reached level 50 and started using that shortcut. Makes it way more bearable now!

One thing to remember is that all newly opened cards get a little “new” marker until you’ve either scrapped them or closed the perk screen. So even if you can’t scroll the pack itself, you can still check the perks screen and see which cards you just got. It’s not ideal, but at least you don’t miss anything once you look there.
