It was on a live YouTube stream months ago. I’m not wading through all them to find the guy talk about it. By the way I said “probation basically haha”. You misquoted me a bit. they were in the doghouse after Revan. Dismiss it if you want. It’s true.

So "probation basically haha” is part of the statement that is true? I'm not really sure what this is supposed to mean or how it strengthens your statement. It seems irrelevant. I thought I was doing you a favor by leaving it out.

Revan and the leaks lined up pretty close to each other. I'm just trying to understand where you're getting information that CG cared about the negativity (which was pretty mild) that much as opposed to the leaks which probably cost them real money in the form of changed plans.

I have nothing to prove either one and I'm not claiming you're wrong. Just asking for sources.

3. Game changers were very negative with the release of Jedi Revan... opening packs and dreading every minute and talking about how it gave them that same buzz that addictions give.

CG/EA was very upset about the negativity from Game Changers surrounding Jedi Revan’s release. So they are on probation basically haha.

Speculation.

Very good speculation, as i agree with it.... but speculation and nothing more.

Can someone explain to me why game changers no longer get info released to them early and they roll out their videos when the info is release? Was it because of leaks?

I feel like the excitement of roll outs has dwindled because I’d immediately watch a video and get excited.

Too each their own but was curious what happened.

Two reasons
1: Some game changers started leaking planned content, intentionally or accidentally. This is what initially caused the game changer accounts to be shut down and reverted to a worse version.
2. They don’t want people to know how good or bad a toon is ahead of time. How many people do you think would have invested in Grievous if they knew a few days ahead of time how hard he ****? The less people know, the more they will spend.

#1 is correct. Leaks caused the changer program accounts to go down.

#2 is speculation but again i would agree with it too

I don't care why it is, it's a good change. The first place information is posted should *always* be through an official channel, people shouldn't have to go to some random yahoo's youtube channel to find information releases.

Its on a CUP podcast. Ahnoldt101 talks about it months ago and the Non Disclosure agreement being potentially tweaked. Warriors talked about it.

But if you watch the video... especially the end it makes it sound like me cutting off my leg is less painful than spending $400 on Revan. MG opened the packs dreading every single opening... not even watching (too painful) and felt a *buzz*.

CG wants their product painted in a positive light. Dreading every second of the torture of spending $400 opening packs upset CG and who can blame them to an extent. If I have a product and begin a partnership with others and they portray my product with astonishing negativity... I’m re-examining that partnership.

Nevertheless, CG seems to have done a much better job rolling out Darth Revan & Game Changers will portray it more positively/professionally. Book it. Still love our GC’s

Space Cowboy?

Its not a good look... but having seen the live streams... im not recalling confirmation of a negative review causing the pull.

I do recall several of them mentioning leaks and nda violation causing the pull.

That said... i too would re-examine the relationship after MG did the pack opening video.

Also... id re-examine those packs as that is a real bad look and its due to the way those packs work.

And lastly, MG waited to last minute and paid dearly.... most whales and f2p were not doing it that way.

I watched the whole video. Still seems very mild. In fact, if I were a whale, I'd love it. Keep the F2P and dolphins from attempting to get Revan. I'm sure CG has, or has access to, marketing professionals that would have told them that this video isn't something to get upset about.

I'm not sure what is "on a CUP podcast" or what "Warrior talked about." And without better citation I'm not going to go digging. I believe ShaggyB's perspective is probably closer to the truth. Leaks were the likely cause.

Here’s the video from 4 months ago. I am admittedly being more dogmatic about it than they are. And it probably is a combination of several things but I still lean towards the GC reaction during Revan being the biggest factor.

Thank you for sharing.

" did get suspended because of leaks, that's 100% certain"

"I know for sure it's not because of "

Two direct quotes from the video.
