    Part of their future plans are always how to fix present problems over time. Additionally there is no such thing as perfection. We would never get any new content of any kind ever if we had to wait for there to be zero problems. Then the game would die.

    Cheers. Next time I need something obvious to be explained to me I know who to turn to.

    Then don't say obviously silly things that don't reflect the possession of any common sense.

    It's obviously silly to suggest they do more to fix the growing discontent in this game before worrying about shiny new toys? How is that not common sense?

    Speaking of advice though, putting words that sound like they might somehow belong together like "reflect the possession" doesn't make you clever. It just makes you sound potato.

    There is always some discontent. Do you have proof its worse than normal, or are you just being bitter, and overvaluing your personal experience?

    Either way I already told you why you're wrong. The game will never, ever, ever be fixed perfectly. And they need to make money to pay people to fix things which they do by adding new things. So if you want there to be no game anymore then we can do it your way. Or they can keep doing what's kept the game going for 2.5 years which fix a little, and add a little at the same time.

    Funny that you had to make a snarky comment about that being obvious, but you still didn't get it.

    I made a dry quip based on the OP asking about the future. I wasn't trying to be right or wrong, Certainly wasn't asking to be explained down to like a 5 year old.

    To answer your question OP:

    https://www.reddit.com/r/SWGalaxyOfHeroes/comments/8vuqnj/why_have_devs_suddenly_gone_silent/e1qwmac/?context=8&depth=9

    Your biggest mistake was asking the devs on the official forums!

    Personally I would love to see a Separatist rework. I geared them up a year ago for no reason, I think I deserve a rework for my poor choice.

    I wasted a zeta on Count Dooku and that's the only thing I want to see in a Separatist rework. Some sort of ROI

    I don't do option 3. More than 2 options exceeds the amount of hands I have and that gets confusing.

    Re: Seperatists, I don't believe so. If they overlap with other factions ie Dooku and Ventress, then yes, technically, but not Seperatists as a whole with synergy.

    That’s strange. Well then they are definitely due for a major rework.

    (Oh and I added a third option because I have three hands)

    They've been due a rework since the first person got Greivous to 7* and said "Is this it?".

    At least B2/Sun Fac/Geno Soldier etc used to have their uses. Greivous - woof.

    Not sure if Dooku got a rework or he was just given a Zeta, but Ventress got her rework with the NS last year.

    You should see a doctor about that third hand, or put it to good use (home grown beer holder?) I'm not sure which would be more applicable.

    Can do what you like homeboy.

    Kinda the point of a discussion board - you can agree and say something, disagree and say something...somewhere in the middle and say something...express yourself. That's the point,

    False @CoastalJames as this forum is heavily regulated and edited by moderators.

    It is regulated and edited by Moderators acting under the Terms and Conditions that every poster has signed up to operating within. You remember reading them, right?

    Whether this regulation and editing is "heavy" is a subjective opinion. I'd dispute it, others wouldn't - but it's a matter of opinion. Bottom line is, if every poster operates under the policies set out by the Terms and Conditions that they willingly and voluntarily signed up to then there will never be any problems. This is definitely the case for 99.5% of posters and posts.

    I'll admit $13,000,00 a month is a shoestring budget with which to cobble together SWGOH...

    You think you can keep a staff of 60-70 people including highly skilled programmers, and engineers employed full time on $7-8 per hour? You think that they would be permitted to keep using the Star Wars brand without turning a profit that justifies exclusive rights to that brand? Is shutting down the part of the business that makes money until a completely impossible goal is reach first a reasonable expectation?

    Ummm lets put that in perspective. Thats 8x more a month than your average Home Depot. They employ over 200 and have a footprint the size of 4 football fields. Pretty sure HD is doing just fine, and i am pretty sure CG is doing way more than just fine. Pretty sure they can afford a guy to fix bugs that have been around since, I dunno, LAUNCH. Lets not be silly.

  • Jediknight_Markryan,

    Don't let the salty forum folks get the best of you.

    I am in an old shard. I have always enjoyed farming non-meta toons since day one because I find conformity dull.

    I was regularly placing the in 20-30's range prior to ships 2.0 using a hybrid empire/Geo/Biggs/Reaper group. After 2.0, I stayed about in the same range despite the outcry here that it's now "all RNG."

    Then I made the plunge and decided to try all Geo's since, hey, I had them all developed anyway. I've been taking the #1 payout (NO cooperation involved) in ships for a couple weeks now.

    Most of the folks who are sour grapes about this are the ones who ignored the changes in strategy (especially reinforcement bonuses) with 2.0 and have their panties in a bunch because they can't keep their same old guard out front and collect a top five payout without fighting a single battle anymore.

    I always had to fight for my placing before. And I still have to now, but am able to use strategy and thoughtful fleet design to regularly take out fleets with 70-100k more power.

    Uh... I love Ships 2.0. I’d call it a success... and that’s from someone who was getting #1 in fleet arena regularly. Always top 5 before ships arena and dropped a few slots after it. (They nerfed my best guys). But there is so much more variety of ships now that can dominate in my albeit young shard. I just hope we get Grievous rework/capital ship. Followed by a Resistance Capital Ship Followed by a First order capital ship... that are all more balanced so not everyone is running thrawn with the same 5 ships... anyone who thought everyone running Thrawn with the same 5 ships was a better ships format is just bitter their team got nerfed.

    Spoken as someone who was largely maxed out before the change.

    It's as if the testing of 2.0 only involved G12 characters and 7* ships. The underlying parts are broken badly. You can't beat challenges you need to get mats for those ships as they're way overpowered. But those are largely the comments i've seen across the boards. The people OK with it are the ones who had their fleets up there. There was a guy saying he had a 250k fleet and couldn't get the 5* executrix which is 'supposedly' set up for 4* ships of lvl 75...

    It'd be nice if it involved some strategy of some sort, but it seems to have devolved into who goes first anymore. I'll take strategy over pure RNG any day, but short of gunning it out in maxed fleets, there isn't much of it.
