[MEGA] State of the Galaxy: November 2021

Holy crap, how stupid can you people be? The funny thing is that when the game dies they’ll try saying “oh, it just ran it’s course” instead of “we actively tried to destroy the cash cow”

I will likely be in the minority here, but I am cautiously ecstatic. Assuming this goes as I hope it does, it is removing the game mode I hate the most and improving the one I like the most.

This is basically what I've been asking for forever.

I agree with you, squad arena is tedious and repetitive, you always face the same teams and hope that someone doesn't knock you down in the last minute.

Also, with crystals no longer tied to squad arena, there's a chance that we can turn it into something resembling a sandbox mode.

I really like this change (if GAC was only 5v5). To me, GAC (5v5) is the best part of the game but the rewards never matched the effort. Now there is more incentive to get involved. But I still really hate 3v3, and this change means I'm going to have to play it more to stay in a higher league. At the moment I aim for kyber in 5v5, but pretty much just set defence and forget for 3v3.

With this change, can we please finally make it that you only need to do 1 squad arena battle to complete daily challenges, rather than 2? That's always annoyed me for when you just want to quickly do your "dailys". You have to wait another 5+ minutes for the squad arena counter to reach zero.

A lot of people, including myself, choose not to engage in GAC because WE HATE IT. We are active in arena instead. You are taking that choice away from us now, and with it all enjoyment. Might be time for us to just quit I guess.

So Arena becomes… what? Nothing?

All I take away from this is way more effort and stress for maybe the same rewards. And without them being daily to boot.

Someone on another thread raised a valid question. How are they going to address cheating in GAC? If it wasn't already an issue, I suspect it will certainly be now.

I like this change.

Squad arena just for lower end players. Good news end game players there’s no zero incentive to spend money to keep up!! Yay!!
