Idea: Sabacc and Pazaak

What about having in-game Sabacc and Pazaak to play anytime whilst waiting for the next event, match or shipments to refresh as well as a way to spend the excess credits, tokens and gear?

Sabacc and Pazaak are two well-known games in the Star Wars universe with fans having fun times playing them in Outlaws and the Knights of the Old Republic games. It would really help pass the time whilst waiting for events to activate or the shop to refresh. Also, I and many other players have too many credits, ship building material tokens and gear that it feels meaningless having them when there's very few options to spend them. Perhaps you could bet some gear to win certain other gear that you really need or play for characters or ship shards.

You could have either the main menu cantina patrons like Garudda, M'ak Nar or Shar to play against, or perhaps even any of the playable Star Wars  characters like Lando, Han, Canderous etc with each having their own special abilities. You can maybe also have matches against other players.

There is of course the concern that this could constitute as gambling, but as long as you're not spending or winning real-world money and it's played as safe as in Outlaws and Kotor then it should be okay.

      It’d definitely help break up the monotony during wait times, and might encourage more players who aren’t necessarily into turn based RPGs into checking out SWGOH.

  • Sadly, if they were to implement this, it would have to be ANOTHER event. Something that stays all the time that can generate resources is not what CG does. Cool idea, but doesn't benefit CG one bit unless there is a way for THEM to gain currency (our money).

      Depends on how addictive the gameplay can be, and if you’re betting with credits and you’ve run out and need more, you can get more credits by purchasing with crystals and you can get more crystals with real money. Of course in no way should you win real money from Sabacc or Pazaak.
