Chaos Legion Causing Chaos On The Servers
Today is the general sale for Chaos Legion packs and things have gotten a bit wild for the game servers trying to keep up with the buying rush.
Since the packs launched about an hour ago, there have been around 1.5 million packs purchased. There would likely be more sold already, but the servers are running into a huge issue regarding credits being delayed when they are purchased.
Buying credits is arguably the easiest way to get money into the game, and credits don't deteriorate in value as they are pegged to the US dollar. Usually credits are given to your account within a minute or so of you depositing via paypal or when your crypto deposit is confirmed, but today they are running into an issue where paypal deposits are delayed an hour (so far).
They have already made announcements about this, so if you are worried that your transaction did not go through, it seems you have nothing to worry about as they say the system will catch up eventually.
Opening packs is a very addictive process because you could easily pull a card worth a few hundred dollars, however most of the time you will end up losing a bit of money along the way. It can be likened to gambling in a sense because you never know what you will get.
Some people are choosing to hold onto packs with the prospect of selling them in the future for 400-500% gains. I am not so patient and usually have my packs opened within a few minutes of buying them. Do your own research to decide what is right for you and be patient with the servers as they are handling a massive flood of users trying to get themselves involved with the game.

I tried to buy packs to save for later as well, but I couldn’t. I always end up opening all of them.

Yeah, I've had the same problem. PayPal transaction not showing as processed on splinterlands, although I've got a PayPal receipt. Luckily it's only one pack so not sweating it - hopefully it'll make its way through..
I saw that error on my first pack opening after the general sale. After that, the transactions took longer but the packs opened up fine.
