Gear crunch empty promises

They're just too busy making a new Inquisitorius team for whales to buy. Notice how the new toons are more reliant on kyros than before? They just moved the gear grind to another location.

Yeah, It was always expected that the grind would shift to newer gear relic pieces which would become the new bottlenecks, and quite frankly I’m kind of ok with this, you move the bottleneck to a slightly higher level (g11 is the new half way point to full power now)

I know CG has the data from last 5 months, but I don’t need a massive complex dataset, to say the only meaningful/noticeable items for me have been I don’t wait for stun guns and eyeballs anymore.
But I can’t honestly say they “moved” the grind yet, they just created another one.

And you don’t need some massive recoding, the second most meaningful p1 it was simple increasing value of drop rates, that’s it, update values, change 1 to 2, or change %chance

On a side note, seeing another $25 core gear pack pop up in store today, not bad deal, but seriously CG offering more pay options is another hand slap to the face.

Just “flabbergasted”, my new favorite word ;)

A timeless statement, no matter when you read it, it's always true and up to date.

Any attention is better than no attention

Not if you bought the new increased marquee pack for a dollar more ?

I think I’ve acquired and geared the prereqs and 2 GL’s since then. I mean, it’s def way better than it was imo

And Mic drop ?

Six months later the only person who gave a 1 sentence update “longer than expected” just quit his job.

Jeez I feel so hopeful and trustful of RA information ??????

CG I hope your server update screws you over and gives everyone 99999 crystals that you can’t fix for 3 weeks!!!

doja was just the messenger theres no reason to think him quiting changes anything that we might get or not get

Never said it did, he was the only one who gave some kind of update when asked. I fully expect and hope they will get someone to replace doja when he leaves to address community with current and past RA items. And Dev to follow through on the RA items.

But just another thing that doesn’t look good, having your current community managers hands obviously tied so tight he can’t inform expected timelines for already announced items. Then a week later announce they are leaving, I didn’t see him mention of gear economy changes or RA in his accomplishments he was proud off while he was here.

Main point really is after 1-2 months this post still manages to stay fairly active enough with enough similar agreement on the matter (which really says something given some other posts I’ve seen lately.)
That says enough, It is past due to supply progress at this point.

I really love how @CG_Doja_Fett_MINI though being the community manager sidesteps and avoids these community grievances. I have already written 4 General discussion post about these gear crunch promises and sith raid simming. Now I have lost hope and dont do that **** anymore.

Isn't just only your post, because some users also posted it and obviously not a single answer.
Also people asked about the GEC on discord, and he say Nothing was missing.

I did follow up a week ago, and this was what I was told:

No update on when Sith Raid sim will happen
No update on when phase 1 changes will happen

As soon as CG can provide an update, they will let the community know since they know how much they want these two questions answered

I was told a few hours before Doja went on discord and answered the people so the update felt pointless to give out since he said as much about the gear phase 1

It wouldn't have been pointless, it would have informed people that don't pay attention to the discord ...

Someone posted the screenshot of doja's comments from discord in this thread (semigod) is what i meant

as in, it was answered before i was able to answer

Kyrotech

Unless they are addressing kyros the rest is all fluff. I am certain they know this and it was probably the plan all along.

By addressing many of the others all you need to farm is kryotech, its indirect but it did address the situation.

Yes, only kyrotechs ... 3 - 400 pr. toon ... of which we need 4-5 to unlock new stuff. The Kyro-gate is just as bad or even worse than any stun gun or carb gate ever was ...

oh yeah ... and we need to farm low level gear to scrap for relic materials ... and then the signal data.

So, no ... kyrotechs are not the only thing we need to farm. And no, it did not adress the situation. It just created a new, identical gateway while making the old gateway only half as bad.

Result: We now have one and a half gateway instead of just one. And if you count in the relic crunch, we actually have two and a half gateway...

CG should increase the gear crunch
