    I have not gotten rewards either, and there is no new GA.

    if you having trouble with rewards, restart the game.
  • My GA rewards turned up. After a few restarts I switched from WiFi to LTE and it showed up. Perhaps it’s just a connection issue on my end. But it’s most likely Gremlins.
  • I almost always win at GA in the current format, and that's fun, but I know a lot of people who consistently lose. I don't mind a rework so losers get put into a pool of other losers, so they can win more. However I also think they should get smaller prizes. I don't like the idea of my success penalizing me with better opponents without a compensation factor. Otherwise I will just throw the matches where I don't get the gear items I am after.

    anyone else get this randomly, or have the opponent's final score in the rewards box show up wrong? It doesn't mean anything as far as I can tell, but was just really weird

    Cowardly at best...you don't want to be properly challenged...but handed easy wins and premium rewards..in other words go ahead and challenge others but don't challenge you..and if they do well in thier perspective challenges don't give them rewards that you are being handed and have received for 6 months, that's your compensation...this is the most selfish post I have seen so far.
  • I just checked out my first opponent under the new match algorithm. Looks like I'm being served up as road kill once again.

  • Ah! I'm an 850k, f2p noob. There is so much going on in here I can't tell the bells from the whistles. I only just found out that Discord isn't what goes on between my family at T'Giving. Woof!

    Hardly any change, if any, I'd say for worse.. I'm averange non-drevan user, i go against 4 fluffs, 2 drevans and 1 average like me in this GA which is almost the same as before but more fluffs..

    Mine has 7 dr/malaks including me, it looked consistent. Hence my asking.

    Edit: +1 dr still in building. All malaks at 6*.
  • Yeah super pumped this GA. First round opponent has Treya, Dreven and Revan. I have Revan. None of the others. Thanx for penalizing veteran players who have high GP because we have lots of toons and rewarding the new guy who just farmed the meta for a year.

    If new rules are in effect (they prolly aren't) you would get more even matches.

    is this the new matchup algorithm ?
    i see no difference or maybe it is worse, my opponents have double zetas in comparison to me some have triple more zetas than i have, and 3 times more G12 than me
    this can not be an improvement... i hope that this is not the new algorithm, tell me it is not in function for the moment...
    since the horrible "quality of life" update this game is going worse and worse...
    dreadful matchmakings, less rewards, less droprates, less fun, i see a lot of guild companions stop playing, this game is sinking

    I do not think so. Have the biggest missmatch in my whole GA history with 400k differences between char and ship GP. He has Traya, while I have HMF. I have half the G12 toons. Mods and number of chars are fine.
    Regarding the details it was much worse, but I do not think that the new algorithm is already online, otherwise I would not have my biggest missmatch ever...

    For everyone who keeps asking if the new matchmaking is in effect.

    No.

    Hehe sorry to be **** that threw a pebble into the hole that rest followed. It's not in effect. They would announce the hell out of it if it was.

    Repeat after me: HOARDING IS NOT PVP! HOARDING IS NOT PVP! HOARDING IS NOT PVP!

    Exactly zero people think hoarding is PvP. Hoarding can, however, improve performance in various aspects of the game, including PvP.
