The more players are out there in the Steam-Universe, being eligible for drops, the lower your chance for drop will be." Every 10th steam-level gives you a higher multiplicator by +0.20. The multiplicator of your chance, which starts from 1.00, raises with your steam-level. According to this your chance for a drop raises with the amount of eligible games and the amount of crafted badges in the community. "When you have an eligible game for dropping Booster-Packs you may receive a Booster-Pack, when someone in the community craftes a badge for this game. More crafted badges raise the chance for you to get a Booster-Pack.Īll these things sound pretty easy but let's have a closer look into it:Īt first I will put all of our factors into words so that you can understand why I build a term like I do. More players per day raises the chance of a badge being crafted. These two parts are playing together and they are only important if you want to know the ratio of getting a Booster-Pack drop per day. The amount of crafted badges per day and the amout of players per day The following part will explain the mathematics for these drops according all the factors included in this. So if I craft a badge for Left 4 Dead 2 someone out there in Steam, who is eligible for Left 4 Dead 2 Booster-Pack drops, receives a Booster-Pack for this game. The first thing someone thinks is that you'll only have to wait some days or maybe weeks and then you have your Level-5-Bagde.I'm really sorry but it is not THAT easy.īooster-Packs will be dropped, when ever someone out there in Steam crafts a badge for the game. After these drops, this game reaches a new status in your Steam account: They get eligible for Booster-Pack drops. But these dropping crads are limited (in most cases 50% of a complete set). After a session in this game you just notice that you have some new items in your Steam-Inventory!!!Įvery game with its own trading cards has trading cards, that drop when you have an amout of playtime (in most cases every 0.3 hours one card drops). You bought yourself a game in steam, that has its own trading cards. You can receive Booster-Packs by a random drop from Steam but there are a whole lot of mathematics behind this. This way is the way I want to explain a bit more in detail.
