This GA is awful!!!

There was no clear indication that I needed to place 3 squads in one spot, 4 in another, and yet 2 bottoms right! How stupid!!!! Totally frustrating! CG, put some effort into making event instructions clear! This event is now a waste of time because of your terrible communication and event planning!

    I'd also like to know why our back squadrons are hidden...from us


    So you can screenshot the board and share here, on discord, on facebook, wherever, without people seeing what you deployed back there.

    Also your back squads aren't hidden. Tap the section, hit enter, you'll see all of them.

    Law of large numbers.

    @Bulldog1205
    What are they changing this too then, to make it better?
  • Doesn’t the counter in each TW zone zone change color once the zone is filled?
    Maybe just repeat that here? Seems like an easy fix that would help out here.

    I get that, and I wouldn't be upset if they made a change, but at the same time, where does it end?

    Do we really want CG, with all their current struggles, to also try to anticipate every screw up some random idiot can come up with? No matter what, there will be screw ups, and the only question is, what percent of idiot screwups we want to allow.

    Personally, I'm comfortable with about a 10% idiot screwup rate. Meaning that if 90% of the ppl can figure out that you have to read, think, etc and get it right then we're good.
  • I get that if you aren't used to setting a certain number of teams, it can be confusing, but as others have said, it does show the number of teams required in each zone. Plus, you should know you moved up a Division, so you should understand what that means. Finally, it's a mistake you should only make once.

    With everything else going on and that is needed in game, I just don't think it's worthwhile to even address this. Players should understand the rules and requirements, and if you don't, take your one lump and learn.

    I wonder what % of players thought the extra shards came with the Hyperdrive Bundle?

    I’d think 30% feels right. And probably 80% initially.
