@Austin09370 Can you explain how it's naive? I basically said it would never come to pass, but it could alleviate some of the frustration the player base has.

People pay to be the best. If paying didn’t make them the best because they were only competing against others who paid, they wouldn’t pay anymore.

Exactly.

Personally, I always thought this game would be so much better as a subscription game. Probably not near as popular or profitable though.

Agree thats when mmos were the best. Everyone paid the same. The ones who put more effort and time got better stuff and quicker. Micros came and destroyed that concept, now its about your wallet.

No thanks. I'd rather the whales get ahead by paying then someone forcing me to pay instead of me paying when I feel it's worth it.

Nothing warrants a response. They told you the start date of the event and the requirements. That's all that needs to be said.

"Wah wah we don't want marquees we want more legendaries and heroic journeys"

honestly if I was a developer i'd say "you asked for this lol"

People are mad like they always are. They were mad when chewie dropped too. They will always be made because people cannot cope with the idea of not getting a toon on day one. People are spending on Revan like crazy, at least people in my guild/shard have been dumping money to get him. To CG, its business as usual. The ones not spending are complaining and those who want to get it are spending. At least on paper.

Hmmm no not really. I wasn’t bothered about chewie at all. I could’ve diverted attention to that but instead had my focus on OR, even before the Revan announcement. And before that I missed a couple events first time around but I can only blame myself bc I didn’t farm toons from the start of their availability. I usually don’t complain but I don’t like the idea of putting all your attention into something and it not being attainable. Most of the other events were at least possible without spending money or loads of crystals.

Safe to say a large majority of the playerbase is unhappy (to put it VERY mildly) with Revan. Has there been any dev response yet?

Most SWGOH players do not participate on this forum, have never expressed an opinion about Revan’s requirements. And yet you presume to know the thoughts and feelings of a “large majority” of people you’ve never met or even heard a word from. Try to become more comfortable speaking for yourself instead of hiding in a crowd you’ve imagined and claim to be real.

@Mik_Prat_Rel Get your head out of the sand, and read the 41 page megathread, watch the Youtube videos, go on Discord, Reddit etc. People are not happy.
I stated loud and clear the day he was announced how I felt.
Don't presume to know what I'm thinking.

What do you want the devs to say? That they want to collect money? We already know this. Do you want them to acknowledge that FTP was not in their thinking when they release him? We know the answer to this too. I’m not sure what you want them to say.

If we stay silent and take it, it's a sign that their decisions are acceptable.
Talk with the devs, listen to their interviews. They seem like pretty cool people.
Remember when they tried to kill Sith Raid rewards, or the initial NS nerf? They've shown in the past they're willing to listen to reason.

Old Republic toons are pennies on the dollar. 5 good toons at 7 stars and 1 Legendary toon at 7 stars for the price of 1. You people wont be happy until we give away nothing but free, maxed characters.

48h of silence is a PR disaster.
I am not quite sure what is going on.
@CG_SBCrumb you are the community manager ... please step up !

Silence is their best friend. Hell, I'm still waiting on a response from him regarding a year long bug that they keep dodging and ignoring requests for. (Savage Oppress)

U might want to pull your head out of that helmet on those same social media and media platforms there are just as many people who are cool with it or understand basic economics of a free games such as this. How u need events to prompt spending especially in a game in which everything can be obtained for free eventually.

Then CG needs to make an announcement clearly stating Revan is for mega-krakens, not 95% of the playerbase.
