[MEGA] Conquest 7

Bringing this over from the closed thread.

I absolutely agree that management is mostly responsible for all the problems over the past twoish months. Probably to the tune of 75-80 percent. That said the fleet mission bug and the wrong rewards are both examples of bugs that shouldn’t have escaped a sanity pass let alone a full testing pass that conquest should have gotten in the case of the rewards bug.

Those particular bugs can’t be blamed largely on management though they clearly are examples that management is screwing up so much it is impacting the quality of both the development and testing teams.

I sympathize with both teams. It’s not easy meeting unrealistic expectations set by management but you can’t cut the basics of your job.

Management is there to meet deadlines or modify deadlines if the team cannot meet them. Seems like neither happened. Management is the group that tells the higher ups no we cannot meet this deadline and have to work on it some more or at least that's what happens in my job. If the team doesn't bring up any issues to management and it gets pushed out, it's both the team and manager's fault for putting out a shoddy product.

In all honesty, we know it’s not you guys. We get it that player spending pays the bills. But the changes to conquest are sucking the life out of one of the best game modes.

Win 14 battles with x team, the worst part of conquest. I like more feats, but repeatable chore type feats are not fun. Theory crafting feats, or fun to achieve feats are great.

More energy per attempt, not a fan.

Bugs happen, but play testing must be a behind the scenes issue.

To sum up, so many of us love the game, and want to keep playing for a long time. Go tell the man behind the curtain that he needs to listen to the player base. Whales and ftp can enjoy this mode, and it’s possible to monetize it without killing it.

Thanks for your hard work, and dealing with all of us unappreciative players. We know you can make this game great.

Sympathize all you guys would like… Thank god their job isn’t keeping people safe… could you imagine if ea/cg was in charge of keeping something in the air or floating on water? Performing surgery? Blame probably shouldn’t fall on individual workers… this is shameful management…

That was well said. Comments like these take away a bit of the negativity of such threads.

It's pretty simple, really.
People mainly do Conquest for those aeromagnifiers, and their guild isn't good enough to do CPit. They love their guild, but they also want to grind for Executor and they want to grind for JMK to help with CPit.

Given that the difficulty behind Conquest is just that much tougher, it would only make sense to extend the R8 materials so that T4 chest gets 5 aeromagnifiers. T5 chest gets 10 aeromagnifiers. T6 chest gets 15 aeromagnifiers. T7 chest gets 20 aeromagnifiers. I'm very certain this will change a lot of people's opinion of Conquest and help make the game mode more enjoyable.

Even nerf the other aspect of the rewards and try to keep to the R8 materials. It's about the R8 materials that's triggering everyone, so this would probably be a great change on top of all those patches for the bugs you are experiencing.

I didn't notice the bugs. What I did notice, is the amount of R8 materials I have access to now....which is btw, 0.

Dang you guys sure got those nerfs nailed on the first try but can't figure out how to code Conquest correctly. ? Pathetic.

Not even, with the nerf update they accidentally reverted the character designs back to the Ugly GAS and the old B1 and B2 models.

Please give us 3 Clone Wars Chewie shards as compensation, I'm in desperate need of shard shop currency.

Anything to help get me closer to 7 stars. He's so OP, honestly idk why he didn't get nerfed with the others. He's the real Galactic Legend killer if you ask me

Hey, while you're fixing it, maybe make it at least possible to finish CAT. Some of us are 80 shards away, and knew we could finish her with the 2nd highest crate and 3 event purchases. Now it's not looking like there are even going to be enough shards available in the entire event, let alone enough time to finish all your shiny new feats that require R8 bounty hunters.
