@Javin37 , one could argue that the updated “rework” to SiT, SiA, and SM by changing their tags to Sith Empire upon the release of DR along with BSF’s updates could understandably be viewed as “advertised.” They were made to be a part of the same specific national and era faction with specific synergies. Then Malak gets released and makes all that useless. It would be similar to JTR spearheading the Resistance faction to be undermined by... let’s say, if Vet Han and Vet Chewie were updated to be tagged as Resistance only to be undermined by a new character of the same faction that then makes them useless.

Edit: on top of that, it wasn’t even the release of the new toon - it would then come only days later with a sudden “rework” (fix) of the newly released character to specifically make them useless.

one could argue lots of things when guessing and hypothetical situations are involved.

Sometimes people guess right and it's a win...sometimes they don't.

Frustration is one thing...but this isn't like the guy equating it to buying a car.

The people that guessed "marauder" aren't posting much.

Sass still shocks..and that gets Malak's taunt up...so this really is about the EP guys being upset.

I explain to you that it is the metaphor used with the telephone attention of EA, because they do not only work with the galaxy.
they have directed me here.
I am a player of the day one, I have 7000 battles in arena I have a malak.
and I really think it's a bad decision. just because the kit was not thought before and to fix it because they break something else that used to work.

I hit Malak with my Marauder for 156k with his special. Turns out Malak can't stop a train.

I'm still angry at the SA/EP change tho.

Genuine question - what point is there farming any characters anymore?

Once they're good, they get nerfed. Am I missing something? Apart from the fairly obvious fact that CG/EA don't want anyone farming characters anymore...they want them buying characters.

Strange game, the only winning move, is not to play. JOSHUA - Wargames

If I buy a car (revan) and I put a motor (malak), then I put some wheels that recommended me on March 23 the development team (SA).

My question is because only 21 days later who recommended me those wheels (SA) breaks them.

I have explained this to EA's telephone service and redirected me to the development team.

@CG_SBCrumb

Did CG recommend sith assassin?

Or did you make that decision before you knew what malak would be?

That's what you need to have answers to before speaking to anyone...

" Darth Revan is a dominant leader for the new Sith Empire faction and powers up a team by weakening its own defensive capabilities. Darth Revan will lead a very aggressive Sith Empire team that aims to take down enemies quickly but with a different approach than most. Darth Revan’s kit is focused on effectively taking down the enemy leader while applying beneficial debuffs. We think this will be a very powerful character with longevity in PvP and do fairly well in raids. Check out Darth Revan's kit"


They said that the empire sith squad would be PVP and would have synergy between them. with photo included.

Today SA is out of the goal because its only viability is in that squadron.
SA's utility right now is the same as Pao

hyperbole. He shocks and is fast. Shock gets Malak to taunt.

Still has synergy.

following the simil of the car. I buy some wheels for circuit (PVP) and now they only serve me to go to the supermarket.

No hyperbole reality, but you're just flying the post.

1) SA is a female
2) she doesn't shock, her special is just called "Electrocute" and stuns

A few inescapable facts.

They did it again and will do it again.
Those that spend to stay current, will do so no matter how much they complain here.
CG knows these facts, and governs themselves accordingly.

My question is why does malek need a rework and he wasn’t even released a week ago?

Cg do you folks even thoroughly test toons before y’all release them? Or is it that y’all are so focused on making money that y’all dont care about testing and just wait for the players to test them?

Either way it makes y’all look bad as a company. I’ve played online games for 19 years now and I’ve never been so annoyed with a game or the developers of any game as I am with swgoh. The things y’all been doing lately is very discouraging to me as a player. This game used to be fun...not so much anymore.

Cg developers you guys are pushing people away. Starting with JKR to Malek...the path y’all are taking might not kill the game...but you ain’t gonna have the amount of players that play now come this time next year.

I for one am done with financially supporting this game. I can’t do nothing about the money I’ve spent since 2015 on this game...but from this point on I can and I know I’m not the only person that feels this way.

I wonder, does CG test things, or they just write tons and tons and tons of text and put it in the character's kit?

Me: Whaled out to get DR so I could be on top of the meta for once.

Also me: Saw DR immediately marginalized by CG rolling out another p2w toon. Finally accepted that spending money gets you no respect from them and even if you spend on a character it will probably be irrelevant in a matter of weeks.

Now me: Watching "fix" after "fix" for Darth Malak to make him worth the investment ppl put into him. *Shrugs, puts away wallet forever as far as CG is concerned*

Exactly this , they are killing all non whale spending, see how long your game lasts.

as a whale, i'm fed up with CG changing things in this way. everything they introduce ends up "unintended" and gets nerfed.
and the intended version of things.. is boring. nobody finds HSTR fun, or HAAT, or top 20 arena mirror matches base on mod speed. not even the whales who have the speed, and money.
it even took them forever to "nerf" the night sisters 'paper zombie' but when they did, they said it was because they did not want players to be encouraged to not gear up a hero... and yet... for months now, we've had a matchmaking formula for GA that does exactly that. and CG hasn't said a word about it, which is now a trend.
CG puts out undesirable news/updates, and angers the playerbase, and then continue on like the players do not have a voice. the game is losing players, whales included. the idea that whales are addicts that can't quit is nonsense.
