This rampant level of apparent dissatisfaction...

The game is still a lot of fun. The very fact that people are still complaining is a good thing. That means the players still care (vomit a little). But EA/CG need to step up and fix the problems.
In my software company or any companies I worked for, a live release like the 7/6 update is unthinkable. people get fired for that kind of bugs. heads will roll.

And wallets will miraculously close up

That's precisely the problem. Everyone is all over the place because there are problems all over the place.

People are making posts about specific problems and the mods/devs say the posts fall all in the megathread & move/delete the post... Causing it to be a generalized complaint lost in a sea of other specific issues that are now also lost.

Good example is the force champions. They generalized that the community didn't like the event and shut it down... But the problem was the difficulty vs payout and cost of refresh vs payout. Easy fix would be to give the CPU lower stats. Even easier fix would be to increase the payout as little as 50%...


They don't care about the specifics. They just blanket problems to "solve" them

I do agree things tend to get blanketed. Lost in the mix of things. And that's no good in the long term. Reasonable things. Like reward vs effort tweaks. Toss us tastes of things if you want us to throw down money for the full meal. Let us decide for ourselves from a place of knowledge of what we'd be spending on rather than a three sentence synopsis on an update. And like I said earlier that whole "chance of" thing should go the way of the dodo when it comes to spending real money.

I feel they'd do much, much better if they let us decide to buy sun fac or echo or whoever at whatever star level we choose for a reasonable price per star rather than gamble away $500. Seems an easy thing to program.

But, I'm not an economist, or a programmer. I can put folks to sleep on an OR table and wake em up after but I can't tell this company how to best run their business. Or what it takes to make these changes. But I CAN tell you what I would spend money on and what I won't.

And I won't spend it gambling for pixels anymore lol

Probably because people who have a problem are more likely to post a thread than people who have something good to say.

EA? Improve? Is this your first video game ever? Grow up.

You're telling someone to 'grow up' while posting on a forum for a kid's video game? We're all children here. Anyone over 12 years old that takes a game this seriously has developmental problems themselves.

Cmoooonnn. Youre kidding right? DV youre better than this! at the very least youve already known from day one, just judging by the language, that most forum goers are not 12.

There is--it's the Feedback forum. The devs read that stuff and use it to inform future updates. Not a whole lot of people post there, however, because the devs don't comment in it. Also, most "feedback" people give in any game is for show. Folks post the most provokative thing they can in the most public place they can find so they get as many eyes on it as possible. It doesn't solve anything, but it scratches the attention-seeking itch.

There hasn't been a healthy video game forum for 10 years. Happy players know better than to read them. They were abandoned to trolls and haters a long time ago.

Lol this game is not a kids game. I'd bet most of the Star Wars fan base is over the age of 30.

If a 30 year old reads 'D-i-ck and Jane' books, that does not qualify it as sophisticated literature.
The mechanics of this game are brain-dead simple. Don't flatter yourself. Its a kid's game.

That's some interesting logic you have there.

Tell me what's wrong with it.

Not sophisticated does not equal "for children". Thats a start.

I still laugh at fart jokes and Family Guy. I must not be a real adult. Thanks for enlightening me. I still dgaf.

Its not a question of your being an adult. Its a question of this being a kid's game.

Kids game generally means, aimed at children. I kinda doubt that this is this game here considering the prices (very adult) and the subject (which has many adult fans).

This contains too many insults. Closing
