TB: both or choose

That is not correct. Even Merriam-Webster gives this example:

And at any multiplex theater several movies are running concurrently.

Who cares about the definition. The dev post was extremely confusing. I didn’t understand how them running together was less demanding. I didn’t understand there was a choice and it wasn’t both. That definitely needs to be edited for clarity.

Regardless though I’m super glad to be done with one of the territory battles. It was boring. It was long past time to move onto something more challenging. I support this move (so far).

I think a... perhaps more immediately recognizable use would be prison sentences which run concurrently. Since there is no choice to be made, and you gain the benefits of both, the confusion seems natural.

I don’t like having to chose which content I want to play. I want to play BOTH TBs. Why am I limited to just ONE!?
- The “farm” for this game would be easier.

Will the rewards for one star on Geo TB be better than max stars on Hoth? Why get a handful of stars for more stress and effort then earn less, when you can earn MORE stuff on easier content!? Oh yeah, new gear crap to farm...

This information from SB Crumb should’ve been a sentence in the post they just released. I was super excited about being able to do BOTH TBs because I LOVE the TB game mode. TW and GA can gtfo.

They will run simultaneously but the guild's officers will choose which one your guild will participate in. You can't do both Geo TB and Hoth TB at the same time.

Well then your team needs to understand the definition of concurrently.

Maybe you need to learn the definition. Both are run at the same time which is concurrently. That does not mean that you can participate in both.

Therefore I can not run both concurrently. Glad we agree.

I can see a lot of people complaining that the game is time consuming when you have to play two TBs at once, especially for guild officers in charge of organizing and managing each phase

I don't think officers need to micromanage the first 3 to 4 phase of Hoth TB at all, even if you are in a decent GP guild imo (150 million GP)

I've seen people complain about Grand Arena being very time consuming (!). Personally, I can handle participating two Territory Battles but I understand where CG is coming from and cannot fault them for it

CG we are running the two battles concurrently. Players are only 1 running battle. So yes, at 1 building it is concurrent. For every other player in the world it is a singular event lol.

This is why guild officers need the power to move phases when the current phase is maxed out. It would make a six day slog half to 3/4 of the time the 24 hours phases bring. The option would only be open when all stars have been achieved. This would help to ease the burden of managing it all.

It’s time to stop the game! I will play more stuff not less!
Have no fun with this move from EA!

Why was it not decided to run a third TB and eliminate some of the GA championship weeks or a TW? Or why aren't guilds given that option if it is something that has to be done?

Forcing people to chose between the Hoth TB and the Geo TB is a horrible idea. And yet another gesture which seems to imply that CG doesn't really care anymore about the players who prefer PvE content.

Infuriating to say the least.
