Thank you for taking the time to let us know how you feel

I’m glad you guys “listened” to the community and did the opposite. This batch of DCs you are releasing did nothing to make things better.

Really?

I've seen people complain about managing 3 sets is too much

I've seen people complaining about the cycle of datacrons is too short

I've seen people complaining that one month to farm a set is too little

They addressed all those, with exact quotes of community complaints

I agree they addressed several problems and they are good changes. However I do think they ignored some of the bigger changes that are needed. Yes one can say in due time they will implement more, but it could also mean they don’t agree with the player bases feedback. My biggest gripe right now is GLs having DCs. They were OP to begin with now there is no chance for F2P to compete in this game.

I think now is a good time to suggest what those bigger changes are that CG needs to implement

Personally, I think GLs should be affected by datacrons until we see Level 9 abilities for SLKR and Jabba, i am very curious what CG will do for those two GLs out of curiousity / interest point of view

But i do agree its too much for GLs to benefit from datacron modifiers for L3/L6/L9

I think its fine if they get stat bonuses though

A vast majority of people, that I’ve seen, here, Reddit and on YouTube all hate datacrons. Where the response to that?

They won't get rid of datacrons, they are here to stay

Instead of asking for the impossible, you should focus on, "okay, what can CG do for us, to make them tolerable and acceptable?"

If you gave feedback regarding that, you would've seen it this update, probably

If a good amount of the player base ignores them and doesn't use them like myself I can guarantee you they'll go away

Not really

lets assume the following

everyone but 10 players ignore it

- CG chooses to get rid of them
Nothing changes, everyone wasn't engaging except for 10 people, CG isn't making money out of datacrons

-CG chooses to keep them
CG is making a profit by having the 10 people spend on them

Even if no one but 10 people use it, CG is still making some amount of money vs no money so why would they get rid of it?

If you introduce something to a game, and have to make changes to that thing to make it “tolerable”….it was a bad idea in the first place and should be scrapped. CG makes money when people are having fun….they seemed to have forgotten this.

Can't expect the company to get it right the first time

They need feedback, which is good than doubling down on what they initially released

they could ask a select group of people for feedback before releasing, say a beta program, but they broke the NDA, so...

I don't mind them. Whales support the rest of us. They need something to whale on. These are a nice monthly invoice they can collect, so we can all play this game.

I have a 10m gp account , i dread to think how much i have spent on this game in money and in time . Spent hundreds on profundity then they put back release date so it was wasted money didnt need to rush. The crowning **** are these awful datacrons that are making my previous spending null and void as i bow cant beat a super crazy datacron. From today i am free to play won’t spend a penny more on this game . CG are THE worst game devs out there and just dont listen to feedback . RIP swgoh

Well better late than never I guess lol. The more whales stop feeding those greedy trolls the better. The only way to deal with this kind of devs is to cut the money flow. The more the better. CG’s sugar daddies from EA learned this simple lesson with BF2 boxes. But to be honest the whales in this game are masochists who just looooove to be milked like Swiss cows over and over and over again like donkeys chasing the carrot they put in front of their faces on a fishing pole ?????‍♂️

What's that song from the olden days? "You say, I only hear what I want to." That's CG.

Hahaha... all those cheesy feedback quotes are entirely made-up, right?

I didn't see any feedback that where to get materials was too confusing. And they massively nerfed that, both by what sounds like a substantial reduction of quantity because we will have two Conquests to farm upgrade mats from, and completely nerfing re-rolls to making them unfarmable with the only way to individually increase your supply is to buy them.

Where did this feedback come from? It doesn't appear to be the forums or reddit because it seems like it missed most of the mark here by a country mile.

Come on now… making changes to something doesn’t mean it should be scrapped.

They changed the Challenge Pit to make it tolerable.

They changed DSHothTB to make it tolerable.

With so many genuine reasons to hate on Datacrons, you don’t need to hitch your wagon to this bogus reason.

I don’t think it’s a bogus reason as to other here. The goal of a game is to have fun playing it. I don’t think there is a way to change datacrons to make them fun.
The changes you mentioned above made those modes fun, not tolerable. Original CPIT was stupid, now, it’s decent, not my fav, but I still have fun with it.
Only change that could make datacrons fun is to remove them entirely.
