Hey everyone, Luke here from the Maximum Football team.
I wanted to give you an update on where we stand with the fix for card packs in MPL.
What Happened?
Throughout December, we encountered critical issues with our backend provider, making it impossible to sustain our online ecosystem at the scale of players we were serving. We initially deployed a temporary solution that restored card pack functionality, but unfortunately, the same issue resurfaced a couple of weeks later.
After thorough investigation, we realized that to ensure Maximum Football and MPL function as intended, we needed to migrate our entire backend system to a new provider. As you can imagine, this was no small task. Our team has been working around the clock to create a long-term solution that eliminates these issues for good.
The Fix Is Coming Next Week!
We are excited to announce that next week, we will be releasing an update that will fully restore MPL and online play, barring any major setbacks in the approval process. Here’s what this means for you:
- Card packs will once again be fully functional.
- Any users who made purchases during this downtime will have their inventories restored and will be able to open the packs they purchased.
- MPL card customization will be reactivated and will now properly save when exiting the customization menus.
Season Pass Progression Boost
We know that these issues have affected Season Pass progression, preventing many players from unlocking rewards—including the Aircraft Carrier Stadium for premium players at Level 50.
To address this, we will be extending the Season Pass and looking into additional means to give our players ample opportunity to earn their rewards.
More Than Just an MPL Fix
This patch isn’t just about MPL and card packs. It will also include:
- Gameplay fixes
- AI adjustments
- Fixes for frequently exploited online issues
- More improvements across the board
We’ll be sharing more details about new features and gameplay adjustments throughout the week on our Maximum Football social channels—so stay tuned!
We truly appreciate your patience as we worked through this issue, and we’re looking forward to getting everyone back into the action.
Thank you for your support, and we’ll see you on the field!
