About the new double and triple drops policy.

So this is your new policy? Treat players who don't get GL Hondo on a day one like poor peasants? Give double and triple drops to players who clearly don't need them. And  don't give it to those who really need them. Young players who really need such bonuses so as not to lose interest in the game. Well, as you know. You're making it worse for yourself.

    A move that really makes no sense. There's clearly something wrong with CG's recent choices. I was just stunned when i read this stuff.....

    Agreed. Who is this for? The first pirate only just became farmable. People who whaled on pirates are, with a few exceptions, likely to be end game players who don't need double/triple drops or just buy anything regardless. They have everything. Who is this for? 

  • What a cheesy move, You've outplayed yourselves. Seriously when people think than there can't make bigger cash grab than over 20 quid on mobile game pass that doesn't even last proper season, you pull another one out your sleeve and here we are. I think time to close my 8yo account is near, I can't stand more and more things about your 'game'. It's a marketplace not a game anymore, games should give you feeling of accomplishment and be enjoyable, your unbalanced GA, lowest of all drop rates and unenjoyable game mods that give you nothing in return but you do it because chores, gear that is locked and you can't chase it normal way without sacrificing progress while trash piles up unasked for. This is a killer move. Good luck everyone with coping with all this b s. And just off top about drop rates - rather than doing stupid triple drops events maybe do for a change triple chances for a single drop...As you well know what you've done to chances over past years...

  • Agreed. This is genuinely a stupid idea, up there with the worst ideas they've ever had. Rewarding those who have already whaled on the new Pirates & Hondo. Who's idea was this? Do they still have a job?
    It's already becoming GAAS (Gaming as a service) with the Conquest Pass & Episode Pass. This puts another nail in the coffin.

    Yep, when I saw this data mined last night I was really pissed off. Instead to using a double or triple drop event to help players catch up with the required toons and gear to unlock Hondo, CG uses them to reward whales, who, with some exceptions, will not need the events.
    To whom ever makes the decisions up there at CG, you have isolated most of your player base with this new direction. This is very scummy and greedy, and I know you WILL lose players if this becomes the new norm.  

  • Bonus drops used to be available to the whole playerbase. I didn’t see you complaining about “parasites” then.

    It does not make any sense.  The players that are unlocking Hondo first run don't need the double drops, they have all the shards and signal data they need.  I was thinking maybe the double drops were for everyone, but triple are for Hondo but doesn't look like it.

  • CG pulled a braindead move. It's not the first time, it won't be the last. With EA you gotta take the good with the rotting garbage. This is one for the garbage pile.

    I'm a paying customer (HDB, a few LSBs, episode pass). I won't have GL Hondo in 2 weeks. Am I a parasite?
