First off, i think the devs do a good job of keeping us intrigued with future content by slowly feeding us information, but currently that information is very spread out and not very consistent.Somebody posted a reddit link in one of my threads where a dev gives a lot of detailed information about upcoming events (like Places of Power is waves of Jedi) that was not explained on this (the official) forum. This seems to be a common occurance where players receive different information based on which forums they visit.I understand that different teams of people are responsible for communicating with players on different websites about updates and incoming content, but communication between those teams is also necessary. This is the link:https://www.reddit.com/r/SWGalaxyOfHeroes/comments/5taqkr/places_of_power_event_225226/

First of all, I appreciate communication from the developer; however, I do request that communication from developers be here on the forums.

It's minor but all he is calling out is the discrepancy between the 2 places. This being the official forum, should have all the info posted in all other locations.Places of Power NEW (2/10)Starts: Feb 25thEnds: Feb 26thMin Level Required: 75 & has 3 tiers (75, 80, & Bonus)Main Rewards: Light Side pilots/Ships and Ship building materialsNotes: Requires Sith and/or First Order (watch out, very difficult!)Post edited by CG_Kozispoon on February 10

8 waves of jedi? Maul is foaming at the mouth right about now!

Consistent communication across different forums

I don't do Reddit, if there's info on there that isn't present here on the "official forum" that's a problem. @CG_Kozispoon @CG_TopHat

I'd highly recommend signing up for Reddit and friending Capgasp so you can see his posts. I don't read much over there but I do read everyone of his replies. It's so much better than what is found here.

If you go to swgoh.gg you can click the news tab to see dev posts and replies from both forums and reddit.

This kinda proves the OP'S point, why does a 3rd party site have a full collection of the relevant information but the official forum doesn't. Just doesn't seem all that official when event info is given out other places.

There has also been "bad" information on reddit too, so it just seems inconsistent all around.

"Bad info" - I believe the statement about ally coins not being used for anything else(right before they went to tournament refreshes) was first stated on reddit. I could be wrong

I don't believe the plan was to use them for tournaments. The original tourney was crystal refreshes and that was a literal P2W situation. They must have seen the negative feed back and decided ally points weren't being used for much.

Tracks every dev post on the official forum or reddit, all you really need to keep informed

Op is butt hurt but the info was in the events update and he didn't click it. Get over it.

Cap probably prefers to post on reddit cause they don't whine like little girls.

My point was that the dev/mod/whoever on reddit was giving information that was not included in the event update on this forum. I dont think that some consistency is too much to ask for

Because he mentioned it was 8 waves of jedi? That is about the only info that could have possibly made any difference

It would be nice to know that the event is an Assault Battle. Theres a big difference between Assault Battles and the Krooper event.

But yes, its not a HUGE detail, but i only came across this by luck. I have no idea what other differences in communication there could be in past and future events. I dont want to question the information we hear on this site.

I just want to be assured that the teams responsible for communicating with their players are communicating with each other.
