Credit Crunch
Sitting on ~4 MM in promotions...not spending 1 penny on credit packs. I already paid for the shards.... This needs to change. 7* - Mace, Rex, Phasma 6* - Clone Searge 4* - NS Init, Han, Resistan...

As other have stated and I am in the same boat that
The problem with this theory is that people ARE spending money on credits. Basically there are people on the forums who aren't happy with the credit price/credit increase but for some reason they seem to think they are in the majority.
I do agree - those that won't buy credits in turn won't buy packs but I think it's still likely they'll get the energy refreshes however there are also people who will pay or those who are f2p and will just farm the credits as intended.
I can speak for EA nor have I seen their numbers or projections but I imagine that they are seeing sales of credits/crystals/packs in the right areas for their business model. I also imagine those upset with credits for whatever reason make up a very, very small minority in relation to the number of players on their global market
Actually it's quite easy to see the +/- 10 place drop in "top grossing" in the AppStore since they artificially and deliberately ruined the credit economy. It's not guess work.
There are also sites that track income of apps and you can see the game taking in less and less every week.
It's concerning as we all have a love for the game and wish for it to succeed, but without them dropping out the top 50 I guess we will continue to be ignored.
You simply cannot deny that people are spending less and less due to the game killing all progression and becoming a pure and proud money grab.
People are not going to keep paying for credits when they've spent weeks grinding shards and gear. Not even the most fantastic and fun game in the world would get away with such a blatant con. People will not continually but credits for months on end unless you have an endless supply of money and ignorance.
Sure some people may be buying credit packs, but from the stats you can see that it is not a large percentage, certainly not large enough to stay in top 10 grossing. The majority are spending less and less. Perhaps the devs should read the forums instead of thinking that making more unobtainable toons will push up their income.
