I don't know who posted this, but do you have any thoughts/clarity on this Meathead?
So what did we hear?
“Datacrons need to have a longer life span, I feel like I don’t get a chance to use them after upgrading them.”
We hear you there, that’s why we’ve decided to slow the cadence of Datacrons from farming for a month and using them for 2 and adjust it to farming for 2 months and using them for 2. This will hopefully reduce the stress some folks felt trying to rush and get their Datacrons prepared for use.
“With 3 sets live, it’s very confusing to know where to invest or which to use. There’s a lot going on.”
We agree! The changes we plan on implementing from the above feedback will also mean that we’re reducing the amount of Datacron sets live at any time from 3 down to 2. This will hopefully help make it easier for folks to manage their inventory and playstyle better.
“I have so many Datacrons that I don’t or can’t invest in due to sheer volume.”
After looking at the data we noticed there are a good amount of folks who invest in a few datacrons but have a significant amount of ones sitting in their inventory collecting dust. With Set 4, we adjusted the cadence in which you get Datacrons to a place where you’ll hopefully only have the proper amount of ones you’re able/willing to invest into and use, without feeling overwhelmed by the volume of ones that are presented to you.
Things you’ll want to note is that it may feel like resources aren’t flowing in over the course of these 2 months, but we've slowed down the experience to better allow players to engage at their own pace. This adjustment will be one of those that we keep a keener eye on through the set’s lifecycle.
And hey, Meat, if you can't properly answer what possibly changed to make you all do a complete 180 back to a version VERY similar if not identical in some aspects to something we all allegedly agreed needed to be changed, can you at least blink twice if the Saudis are forcing you all to increase the profits or shelf the game?
