Again EA's intent is to make money. Tomorrow when they do the hot fix and show that Yoda event will still occur, they will offer empire shards for money or crystals. Either way you have to pay if you want to play.

THEY ANNOUNCED IT A DAY A GO

Or be very patient and play for free for at least a couple of years.

I had R2 7* without paying. If people that started playing 3 months ago are expecting to get all legendary toons on first try, that is just wrong.

7 hour in game announcement.

Bare minimum would've been keeping the yoda event as scheduled and not having the R2 event for another 3 months as I believe the original schedule was. As it stands, a lot more people will benefit having the R2 event now instead of holding a yoda event.

there was no "original schedule" for R2

legendary events (i.e Palpatine and Yoda) started out on a 6 month rotation. This is what I am basing that comment on.I believe that this was intended for R2 and Thrawn as well, but with having R2D2 as a requirement, they moved it up to enable a larger section of the player base to compete for Commander Skywalker.

August to December it NOT 6 months

There was no such thing as 6 months rotation. Palpatine returned after 4 months then every 2 months.

4+2=6!!!!!!!!!!!!

No it's not. The original Yoda and Palpatine events were called extremely rare and only occurred every six months. Only recently have they increased in frequency

If that's what it was, I stand corrected
