So it's 300 kyro in $20 Pass vs 24 kyro without it? 🖖
"One group in particular we wanted to focus on with these changes was our Free to Play players"

They use words that are up to interpretation like "comparable" so they can turn around and say "we didn't say you would get the same rewards". CG giving us the business again.

The free pass has the 24 kyros and enough currency to buy 234 more. As a free player, I'm alright with that 😂

Max you can buy in the stores is 16. With the 24 along the track, you’re up to 40 which is the exact same you can get from 8 GCs

Yea exactly. Same here. I rarely get red crate so to have an option to complete smaller more manageable quests to earn currency I can get Kyro’s is a win in my book.
Since the recent guild raid changes allowing me to buy the gear I need, my roster progress has moved forward significantly compared to before where I was just hoarding gear and hope to get piece I needed.

You are bold to assume that as a f2p player the smaller quests will be "more manageable" and not locked behind needing more toons geared up to be able to complete their various feats. I mean I'm staying cautiously optimistic myself, if done right these changes could be really good for a lot of people, however they could also be really bad if done wrong and judging by other recent events/changes I'm definitely not ready to jump to the conclusion that they will without a doubt be the former.
Also just because you don't get red crate now, many people are able to get at least to the crate with 2 omi in it, but here they are only giving you 4 omi unless you buy more with currency, problem is if you go that route that means less kyros for you so you can't take max possible amount for both, one of them has to be reduced for every one of the other you grab.

but you can only buy 16 of them per episode, oopsy

You get 40 per month now from red crate, assuming you're able to max all GCs
So theyre giving 24 away and then with the 41,000 tokens (minus 4,800 for omis) you could buy about 200 additional kyros. So yeah kinda not the end of the world actually. And you'll still have TB tokens, and gac tokens, and ssc, and maybe assault battles if htye dont take all those away. These numbers feel... actually kinda nice which is a surprise. Now that assumes that it isnt capped out at 4 per week, but if it was youre still getting 16 + 24 from the pass itself which is still a net neutral.- Osets21172 months agoSeasoned Newcomer
Where are you getting this 200 additional kyro from? The store refreshes weekly and you can only buy 2 of each kyro

And now we know that they are locking half the GC feats behind paid content. So fun :) Kidding, but man is EA just being horrible about this. 7+ years and I have never been this annoyed with them over changes.

So I get those rewards when? The end of the episode? I should be receiving rewards from the latest galactic challenge in 2 days. So now I have to wait for rewards 3 more weeks. I call bs. So if you take in the wait for rewards it becomes a net loss
Then you have all those stupid progress slide outs that cover the screen along with all the character quest rewards you can't get even though you accomplished them, it's like being mocked by the game because I can't spend the money. Then you also have 2 600 energy tracks instead of just one.
Net loss.
Having players quit the game because of the paywall.
