I love all that you have done the past few weeks, but are you not trying to build trust within the community? You have already broken the release cadence that you JUST posted about.

First Order Executioner was released January 11th. Do you know how many weeks is between Thursday, January 11th and Thursday, April 5th? 12. 12 weeks.

How are we supposed to have faith in your statements to the community when you already break your own rules less than a week after posting them?

    The relase cadence says approximately 4-6 weeks to Chromium and shipments. He went in at 7 weeks. March 1st.

    and then as per the cadence approximately 4-6 weeks to a farmable location. we are currently 5 weeks there.

    Part of the reason for the approximate is that nothing is exact and we dont always have content releases. I believe the last statement made was he would be pushed out in the next update, but that might have been only mentioning MT, the other NS, and Wicket.

    To say that the most recently made statements dont apply would be underplaying the whole thing, but they are not that off and the statements made are after they missed the first 4-6 week window which is what pushed this out, but they do clearly say approximately for this very reason.

    It's going to be a big miss for a lot of people if only the ones mentioned (MT, Zombie, Spirit, and Wicket) are released and FOX is missing.

    By the way, aren't you guys running out of hard nodes, cantina nodes, and places to put these characters? : )
  • Seems "aproximately 4-6 weeks" means "6 or more weeks" for CG...
    I cant remember any toon who was farmable before 4+4 weeks (out of, maybe, phoenix to avoid outrage when trawn appeared) :S its usually 6+6 weeks or more than 6 + more than 6 weeks :S

    while that may be true, there is no toon that has not gone to a "farmable" location in more than 13 weeks from the launch date. I'd consider that a win considering in the first year of the game we had toons that if you didn't buy you didn't see for almost a whole year.

    I think we need to define “farmable”. I would consider farmable as individual nodes or guild shipments, etc.

    However, I’m showing Rose, FOX, MT and wicket in crystal shipments.

    yes they are still in the second phase of release, farmable is the 3rd phase.

    phase 1 - event/pack only/waiting
    phase 2 - chromium/ shipment
    phase 3 - farmable location

    This. I had such resentment/jealousy towards all the players with Leia and Rex. It was like Christmas when they Became farmable. You know 18 months after I started

    Yes they broke but I also think the next update they put it into phase 2/3 for:
    - First Order Executioner
    - Rose Tico/Amilyn Holdo
    - after that Sith Marauder/Visas Marr/Darth Sion

    Mother Talzin, Nightsister Zombie, Nightsister Spirit, Wicket are goint to be in this one.
  • I expect something big this coming week tbh.
    FOE should be added to a node.
    We will know about MT, zombie and spirit farmability.
    Marauder will be added to shipments.
    And finally bossk.
