    No, what we want is for them to not run their game in a predatory manner.
    Or at the very least in a competent manner.

    Wish for something that may actually happen. Like ask for a live dinosaur.

    After recieving a message in game that bounty hunters are available in hard nodes, who would think that they are not? Does anyone know when the shards will be available?

    Atleast the bonus drop is not avaliable when aurra's pack still selling...

    Thank you. I needed that laugh.

    Agree. All players should receive some sort of a compensation (e.g 5 shards of all new BHs), wether they fell for the trick, partially fell for the trick or did not fall for it.

    It wasn't a trick. Google "Hanlon's Razor". There you will find the answer you seek...and probably find Master Kenobi's missing planet.

    Remember the Double Drops that ended a day early? They Don't Care that They Made Another Mistake in Their Dates.

    I have done 24 attempts on the Bossk node and did not get one Sing Shard. Submitted a ticket thinking it was a bug, and got a reply in about 5 minutes indicating that the drops aren’t guaranteed and to refer to the forums for more information. Just another example of the superb customer service by EA/CG. Thanks for all your assistance.

    Or you could just take a 2 seconds and actually take a look at rewards from a node you were to sim and you would see it is not there. And dont try to tell me you dont look at rewards you just do it as a routine because this is a situation where you should not do something

    For me, its the 21st and an announcement in game was made that the shards would be available in hard nodes. The morning refresh has already happened. Luckily i didnt just jump right in and start spending my freshly purchased energy, as it seems so many have. So I patiently sit and wait for the event to happen. But i can see how people would just dive right in. Everything lined up.... date, in game anouncement... ect. My problem is as i wait, my energy is on hold. It isnt regenerating as time passes, and im unsure when the event will start as it has already passed the anticipated time given to us as players. CG, please activate the event. Its time to get on with my day.

    How would that be fair to players who were smart enough to realize the event wasn't active?

    Why would that be unfair? Folks who got screwed should be compensated. Sure, a bit gullible, but CG is famous for these mess-ups. It sort of boggles the mind how simple things continue to happen.

    It would be unfair because you got a bunch of rewards from spending the crystals...... Now you want them back so you can spend them again.

    It’s an easy fix - compensate them with the shards they’d have potentially won. Easy to propagate that with some quick coding.

    Even so, you weren’t screwed, they were. Your whining about unfairness for something that didn’t affect you isn’t unexpected.

    Well, the message says, "For a limited time...." which should mean that as soon as I see the message saying that, they are available. I haven't had breakfast yet so I'm not fully awake, but why drop a message to us like that and not have the event start when we get the message?

    Very strange indeed.

    I agree - maybe give out some shards but not crystals. Most of us here know to wait for the glowing icons or something. Inbox message was poorly done but I hesitated and checked here before spending energy.

    Exactly, its like turning on all the green lights at an intersection then telling people they shouldve looked both ways before driving through.

    Lol..... Asking a question is whining?.... If they could do that, that would be a perfectly good solution, but I highly doubt they can....

    They didn't get "screwed", anyone with the capability to see (pretty much a prerequisite to playing this game) could see that there was no bonus events active and that BH bonus shards were not present in the nodes they were farming.... It's called due diligence...

    CG obviously dropped the ball here by not having the event active, but that doesn't mean folks shouldn't notice the most basic of things....

    So why some people are affected while other dont? Tell me the difference. Oh yes, affected people do not care about rewards tab. So its their own fault.

    Can you clarify your argument? It’s as if you’re arguing against my argument but making a case for my argument. B)

    And let’s not throw in the “rewards tab” whine - I’ve seen events drop gold mods when the rewards tab shows no higher than purple.

    EA needs to reword their development post regarding the bounty hunter bonus drops. Right now the announcement only says that the bonus drops start today; however, it does not give a time. This is very misleading. I know several people in my own guild wasted several refreshes attempting to get bounty hunter bonus drops. I have also seen a number of posts online about other people in multiple countries wasting their refreshes to no avail.

    I have been able to contact EA through the help contact us button and they say that it is not yet active. The developers need to change their post to either give us the time it will be active or tell us what to expect when it becomes active (such as the hard nodes lighting up yellow). As it stands the post is misleading which has led people around the world to waste their resources and I imagine some have even wasted money on extra crystals trying to get these bonus drops already.

    Bounty Hunter shards are not showing up in light side or dark side nods.

    If 22nd is still far, then bith of you miss a lot of natural energy gain. It seems that it starts at 12am of 22nd. Now decide what's best for you...

    There is normally an icon on the right that indicates that an event is active. That and an indicator on the individual holotables as well. I like you thought that it started today and the announcement was very confusing.
