Sim tickets in 2018
Come on CG, I don’t want to redo missions in full again because of running out of sim tickets. You have added so much content since launch that I don’t want to work my way through the mace challenge again. The drop rates for sim tickets is pitiful and you have so many toons in game that need lots of 6 energy node gear, which burns sim tickets fast.
It is high time you removed sim tickets and let us sim any mission we have three starred for free. I have better things to do with my time than auto low end missions 10 times.

Resources management is key, both gear and tickets
(i've never had a shortage)
Yeah, to general feedback, because that's what it is.
I did also run out on sim tickets, simply because I didn't farm any hard nodes. Since I so that, I'm up to 3k again.
But yeah, I also think we don't really need them.
I am at 6k and never bought any
GW will become sim-abe soon, so maybe they will make some adjustments to the sim-ticket system.
Or maybe they don't and react once the forum is filled with complaints about not having enough sim-tickets, hehe.
I had exactly the same problem and this was my theory
too. I couldn't belive that farming at lower nodes does make such a big difference. I didn't farm any hard nodes at all. Now I do and I'm back at 2500-3000 tickets again. They didn't change any drop rates.
Please just remove them. Long time players spend money... and are never short on them. Short time player aren't going to spend money when they quit over something that has no point being in the game to begin with.
You forget about challenges. Most days there are 10 challenges available to sim, on Monday there are 14, Sunday there are 26. Some toons take a lot of low energy gear (nightsisters) so if I want to farm them I will lose sim tickets. I’ve needed to farm a lot of low energy nodes recently and now it has gotten to the point where I auto the challenges just to save sim tickets. Hell I’ve even had to auto low energy nodes. For a game that is meant to be FUN this is no fun at all.
Remove sim tickets once and for all.
I’m a long time player who has spent. The time sink is getting out of hand and I’ve had enough. Running the tarkin and veer challenges on auto 5 times today makes me realise how ridiculous things are now.
No I didn't, I just didn't bring them up because they have nothing to do with what I said.
Right, but it has everything to do with what I am saying. Simple maths shows that simming low nodes and challenges will run you dry.
Lol then this is where we mention that sims are a treat , that's how they were introduced into the game when they were brought in. As such, manage your resources appropriately lol.
If I want to manage my resources “appropriately”, I’ll quit. Remember that it is a game, not a job.
I can’t believe you are suggesting that the problem is with the player.
My point is that if you recall , presuming you were around, sims were introduced as a treat, because people complained about having to manually battle nodes. This was before 4x, and auto play were options as well. As such, they were and are a treat. Now, the player is responsible for managing his or her resources in game. Whatever reason you have for having no sims, is likely explained by either a propensity to farm six energy nodes, or a failure to refresh energy daily. As such, that becomes a resource issue by the player, not the game.
The game is fun, it also is a little more involved then simply log in once a day and call it good. It's not a job either , but it all depends on what you want to accomplish ,, and like everything, what you put in is what you get out.
So you remember, this is not a console fighting game, this is a type of farming collection game where you need to manage and acquire resources in order to build chars. Which in order to maximize your build rate, requires just a slight bit more then a lick and a promise.
If managing your resources means you need to quit, then so be it, however the game has been this style since it launched.
And it was a terrible idea then too.
What people are missing is:
The only people who suffer from lack of SIM tickets are NEW PLAYERS... new players are more likely to walk away if frustration sets in. They're already at a massive disadvantage for more reasons I care to type out. Why would they keep this POINTLESS barrier in place?
This pointless barrier that was instituted as a treat to alleviate having to manually battle nodes,. .. Right, nice try mate
Example: you need a ton of MK5 Blastech, instead of farming it from DS 2B(6energy), farm it from DS 9F(10 energy), here you also farm MK5 Medpac component and MK1 Bacta Gel, that you also need a ton off
No1 said get of the ability to sim. People are asking to get rid of tickets. Either you just love to argue, or... ?? If you couldn't figure that out on your own... I don't know what to think. Smh
No, just get rid of sim tickets because folks can't be bothered to manage their resources,
