@KulasDevorn if EA dont provide much in the way of single player you will be forced into multiplayer, if you are playing multiplayer then you need crates to compete, if you need crates you get as much as you need through normal play progession, thus you will need to pay cash. This is how the game is designed. Lets see if EA fix it. In the meantime @Jteems9387 this may be of interest to you:

@chinnyreckon : This thread is not about the microtransactions. I could care less about that because it frankly doesn't effect me. I don't use it.
I have played and don't buy any crates, at all. I have not used the credits you earn to buy one single crate. All I did was unlock Vader and Luke and Iden (which is a waste of time since I never get to use them unless I play Hero's VS Villains). That's it. I am setting on about 18000 credits right now and nothing I care to use them for, because I dislike the forced multiplayer and all the other things I Have mentioned in previous posts.
Everything I unlocked was through completing the different types of challenges and getting their rewards.
All I really care about is being able to ENJOY the game I paid for. That means the Single Player campaign and being able to play the ENTIRE multiplayer experience against BOTS, not playing against other people and all the problems that creates for me (aka never being able to be a Hero/Villain).
Nothing to be sorry about @chinnyreckon. I just didn't want this thread derailing into yet another "pay to win" upset that is going around.
The issue of this thread/topic needs to be kept alive because imo it is more important than the microtransactions issue. The game can be played without using the purchased Crystals, which is disabled right now anyway. Not being able to play the entire multiplayer experience against bots is my main problem with this game, and why I don't play it much.
Last night I bit the bullet, dug up my old copy of SWBF2 2005 and installed it.
