What happened, impossible to finish

Where is the dev announcement stating that gw will now no longer be winnable. I got gk r2 showing up at node 6 wiping out a,b,and c teams. Really? Who's definition of fun is this?
gk shouldn't even be showing up until the guild can finish heroic tank.

Will the developers please consider putting fun in their cash cow
  • There are many strategies and ideas out there on how to beat GW. take a look around.

    They have stated that not everyone will finish GW all the time and we have all been there, as you build up it will get easy.
  • well one would figure it should be more winning than losing. I've completed one five days ago. Does that sound right?
    Finding good clear information in this forum is rediculas. I've looked
  • i don't think they look at it as how many people complete al 12 nodes. they most likely look at it as a completion rate out of 12.

    I see lots of helpful information all over the forum and in this section to help people get through GW. as i said we have all faced it and still face it at times.

    Try asking for help, sometimes that helps.
  • Kyno I am on 10 days now. Weak gameplay very weak. There is nothing else you could say to make this sound good. It is poor design made to make common gamers like yourself think it is challenging. Experienced gamers can see it for what it is. Impossible. Do you understand? This is an area they programmed to be impossible to beat based on weird stats that no one knows for sure.

    You as a mod should know that there are a boat load of complaints about this everywhere.

    It is really too bad that one person who says they can beat it everyday is listened to over the many that are pissed off. The calculation has always been questioned and over time it is clear that it doesn't work anymore unless their goal is 11/12. Well then take 12 out of the game, quit rewarding the 1%. Lord knows the real world has enough of that already.

    This game is ruining the star wars name
    That really pisses me off the most

    Ever hear of power creep? It spells the end of most games, and the ending has started here
    Only 200k players and dropping....sad

    Look at one of the more recent polls about GW. I think it's quite clear that the majority doesn't find it too hard. There's only appears to be boat loads of complaints because satisfied players don't make complaints. Just 1% of 200K players complaining about GW is still 2,000 players which is going to seem like a boatload.

    And what do you mean listen to the one person who says they can beat it daily? There's a heck of a lot more than one person beating it daily. At any rate, the dev team has stated they are happy with the completion rate of GW. So yes they are keeping track of statistics, and they're happy with the current state.

    And where did you even get the number of 200K players?

    Looks like 400K downloads in just July 2017 alone.
  • What polls?
    The comment about listening to players who can beat it doesn't do anything for those who can not mean what you said ea is happy a small number of players can beat it and don't care about the others

    My galactic score is almost 2 million, I know how to play this game, it is broken

    Anyone who looks at downloads to indicate players doesn't really know how things work.

    Ea announced in this forum that there were 200k players in the Luke event
    Sorry to burst you bubble, but this game only has 200k players

    People download things all the time and never play them, I am sure ea has bots under the hood spiking that number, most software companies do.

  • I linked to the poll in the very first line.

    I am not from EA and I am only relaying the response that they have given.

    If your Galactic Power is almost 2 million and you claim to know how to play this game but still can't complete GW daily, then your claim is false.

    Let's ignore the number of downloads, but they're still getting $4M revenue a month(for July 2017), rolling around in their Galaxy of Cash. And only 200k players took part in the Luke event maybe because only those players have the required characters unlocked?

    At any rate, let's try to turn this more positive. Instead of complaining about something that isn't going to change, why not do something to change it on your end? Many players feedback that Resistance team makes GW easy. Why don't you try to zeta Finn and gear up your Resistance team and try it out? You got most of them at 85 anyway.

    I’m not sure where they released the info of how many players played the Luke event but to say ALL of the players playing the game also played the Luke event would be very inaccurate.

    its all ****. i have alot of amazing toons. node 12 is broken. the same team over and over for 12 days. CLS lead, thrawn, r2, GK and DN. all G11 and most zeta's. you are lying to us and its showing.


    Do not call Kyno or anyone else here a liar.

    I’m sure you have amazing toons. Maybe try a different strategy. Feel free to message me and we can get started on how to get through GW and make your gaming experience more enjoyable.

    The question you have to ask yourself is: "Why is my roster not deep enough with characters that are well-suited for GW in order for me to win?"
    If the response is "Because I prioritized characters/squads that are strong in Arena and/or Raids," then that's your answer. And that's fine. Everyone has priorities. Many people prioritize Arena for the crystal rewards or Raids for their gear rewards. But if you don't plan your overall farming strategy with an eye towards making sure that your ability to complete GW is not hampered by strengthening other characters, then you should acknowledge that that's by choice.
    As has been said before, CG has stated that they're satisfied with node completion percentages across the board, and have no plans to change GW.
    FWIW, Hermit Yoda may very well make GW easy for many people again. I see Wedge, Biggs, Hermit Yoda, SRP, and Jyn being a very, very strong survival team.
