Incompetence at best, calculated malice at worst

What’s going on with this era challenge?  I have a 6* level 16 STL, I can do tier 1.  The episode quest requires me to get to t3.  I can’t level Luke because those mats are unavailable without getting to 10% on t2 of the coliseum (impossible without leveling) or spending money which enables the incompetent malice causing this situation.  News flash guys, making the game even more unbearable to play is not going to create spenders.  Even the people who wasted money on this in my guild are deeply unhappy about the results and they’re light years ahead of most of us.  There are daily hate posts about all of this nonsense on here, on FB and on discord but as usual CG remains silent.  Guildmates quitting, others on the brink because each new twist to this atrocious mess pushes more people over the edge.  At this point I’m genuinely wondering if the game will survive and if I should care.  Will someone at CG finally be held accountable for the mismanagement of one of the most valuable IPs in history if the game shuts down?

    I thought the era challenge would be a bad miserable pile of bantha dung but it's worse than I thought it would be

  • It truly is an insult to everyone playing. These money grubbing **bleep** care only about that. To say anything other is a blatant lie. The proof is in the result. 

    Its about bleeding the fans of their money.

    I’ve tried and tried but I’ve run out of patience with coliseum/era. If the game mode was at least fun I could tolerate it. But it’s just greed to rip people off. Really sad stuff…..

  • Quite bluntly between balancing, bugs, and entertainment I am just straight up insulted by this update that it was released to the public. I am not gonna pretend the game was perfect before but holy was it better then this.

    Dont forget to mention the hackers on the leaderboard. 

    Episode pass felt like this, there was uproar then and they semi adjusted it, they're desperate to force a cash wall event on us that halts all progress. 

    Im very similar to the OP In terms of spending, but they're getting zero from me until this mess is sorted.

    Also on Android, and also have horrific garbage stuttering game play, mai ly NS, Inquisitor, phoenix and leviathan 

  • I want to enjoy this game, but EVERYTHING about these last few updates have been anti-new-player, I'm not 'new' anymore but I'm just a little over 2m gp.

    I love the characters & the gameplay, but the monetization system is horrible on top of HEAVY investment for any single galactic legend that also locks out half the grind of the game for f2p.

    there are still little areas where I find fun in the game but by far the era challenges are the worst offender, surprisingly I dont hate coliseum (since after leveling a few times you will make noticeable progress in it)

    Predatory games do predatory things.  everything about this game is designed to be predatory.  the only difference with the Era stuff is they are being more overt about it.

    It genuinely feels like they are actively punishing the players at this point. They just keep releasing more things that are blatantly anti player and trying to mask it as being a positive. The few positives that came from this update are so overshadowed at this point that it’s tough to even mention them because we are getting so beaten down by this studio now.

    They just added an extra feat. Meaning the next challenge should allow us to complete the episode quest.
