Although I don't agree with all of Zippy's points, to me the game is definitely not in a good place right now and after each update it seems to get worse. There are parts of the game that are great but more parts that make me wonder what da heck were they thinking.
My thought is that there are so many aspects of this game that could be different for the good of the game but EA and CG are so out of sync with the majority of the player base that it comes across as they don't give a crap and that's what frustrates me the most about SWGOH.
It's very hard to please everyone, and even harder to know what the majority of the player base actually wants. Other than things that take time to create or things that would alter the in-game economy. If you assume the forum feedback actually represents the global opinion of the player base, then you need to remember that they hate new content as much as no content (ships 2.0, sith raid, geo tb).
Finding out what the majority of what the player base wants and doesn’t want is really not that difficult. It does, however, require competent staff and hours, which requires investment. It’s obvious that CG/EA are either not interested in or not capable of this endeavor.
Ok I'll amend to say they already know what most people want.
1) New content
Being worked on, but everyone hates it when it comes out anyway.
2) More stuff
Bad for game economies and for encouraging spending.
Beyond that, no one agrees on anything and they can't please everyone no matter what.
OK, this is something I actually know what I’m talking about and have experience with within 100 miles of their sacramento office.
I’ll ballpark you some numbers and a rough timeframe to get some reliable results.
3 staff on a contract basis at $5000 a month for 1 month, equaling $15,000 can produce some extremely relevant data in regards to this aspect of the game.
A competent manager could turn that data into millions of extra annual revenue and player satisfaction.
