Too many pop-ups

11 pop-ups for characters I’ve maxed out.

It seems like it’d be trivial to add some metadata to the pop-up for which characters are being promoted and not show it if the player has those characters already.

Imagine if the pop-ups were ever relevant, rather than just pointlessly annoying.

So many

We know what the pop-ups look like... you can save yourself the time it takes to post them.

@CCyrilS Do you mean these posts are annoying and repetitive? Are you sure you aren’t mistaking them for highly valuable notifications of incredible bargains that rarely occur in SWGOH ? You should review them just in case you missed something. If you’re dismissing them as fast as they appear, like a normal person, you probably missed a few.

Like, did you see the one for the Extra Life give-away? I did. But only because I take screen shots of them. If I weren’t, I would have dismissed it before reading and missed it.

But I still would have gotten the give-away even if I weren’t pausing to take screen shots, because like most players, I visit the store every day for the other freebies. It was right there. Couldn’t miss it.

Also, CG has decided that some pop-ups are so important that we need to see them multiple times per day. A few more copies can only help, I’d think.

Nope. Pretty sure I'm good.

So so many

Do you record the adverts during commercial breaks in TV shows and complain about them as well?

Once ads became unskippable, more repetitive, and more irrelevant to me, I ditched those platforms for ones that don’t rely on ads. There are plenty of options out there. There aren’t other platforms for playing SWGOH without pop-ups.

I don’t fault the platforms for relying on ads for revenue. I don’t fault SWGOH for selling pixels for a living. I do fault them for being too lazy to make their pop-ups sophisticated enough to be relevant. It’d be a win for everyone. You’d win because whenever a pop-up appeared, you’d know it had something you could use. CG would win, because they’d stop training their users that pop-ups are a waste of time and to rapidly tap the corner of the screen to dismiss them all without ever reading them.

CG: Plz give $100
Me: For what?
CG: HYPERDRIVE!! BUNDLE!!
Me: What do I get?
CG: …
Me: New characters? Gear?
CG: …
Me: Is it nothing?
CG: …
Me: It’s nothing, isn’t it?
CG: PLZ GIVE $100! PLZ GIVE $100! PLZ GIVE $100! PLZ GIVE $100!
(years pass)
CG: PLZ GIVE $100! PLZ GIVE $100! PLZ GIVE $100! PLZ GIVE $100!
Me: (sigh)

CG: Plz give $100
Me: No
CG: Plz. We’ve only made a few billion dollars.
Me: No.
CG: You said no on iPad. How about on iPhone?
Me: Still no.
CG: Plz. We cannot afford to hire a QE.
Me: If I gave you $100, you’d hire a QE?
CG: …
Me: …
CG: …no. Plz give anyway.
Me: That checks.

CG: Good news, Hyperdrive is now 50% off!
Me: …and still offers me no value?
CG: Yes, I thought you’d want to know about it. Plz give $50.
Me: Still gonna be a no from me, dawg.

It offers tons of value. Maybe you have all the gear you need but there's no reason the pop up would know that.
