Test Accounts are Back? Seriously, why?
According to @CubsFan2016 https://youtube.com/watch?v=rMpaRUsjnG4 all of the gamechangers have their test accounts back.
EA, please reverse this--it simply breaks the difficulty of 3v3 Grand Arena since some people / guilds can literally test anything. The fun part of 3v3 for me is having to theorycraft how 3 person teams will do. There is really no way to test outside of the GA unless you are lucky enough to share a shard with a guildmate or other willing person. That's the fun/challenge. Don't ruin this experience by doing this please.

You know the test accounts are on a seperate server don't you? There's no chance you'll be matched against them.
Maybe you should read my post? I was saying they have unlimited theory crafting so will be far more experienced and ready for stuff like 3v3 which most people can't test out like they can. No where did anyone mention going up against their test accounts
What's void about a player having access to a resource you can't have access to. Anyone can watch their videos that's a choice. You cant just choose to have a test account
Even if we don’t watch them, those with a test account have an unfair advantage since they can test out different teams and not put their findings in a video to share with other players. Imagine if one of the gamechangers found out in their testing that some team like the Veterans under Lando lead is a hard counter to Revan, and they never told anyone. I think it’d be better if CG just didn’t give the gamechangers test accounts. IMO if they want to make videos, they can do it on their own accounts like they’ve been doing lately or borrow someone else’s footage.
Granted regarding an unfair advantage, I agree. It does give them and their guild unlimited resources and game modes for testing possible strategies/synergies.
It’s not like they’re sitting there wondering how good Darth Maul would work with Nute Gunray or whatever. Just think about what makes your 5-character teams work and how you can do that with less.
This game isn’t rocket science, quit making it seem hard!
How many are there? Loads. They will most likely tell their whole guild so that is 50 people per GC, and that is not including whales that have almost everything testing and telling people as well.
Yeah cause they certainly dont come up with teams to solo raids or phases of raids.
Sorry, but this must have said.
Have a great Christmas!
I especially appreciate this because I dont have time to go and theory craft my own 3v3 teams...
These don't influence their personal accounts at all... and with most character release they get footage sent to them... they dont test out most characters before they come out... that was only with the triumvirate raid
We got to see real accounts doing real things. Real problems being discussed such as GP and team requirements for GA.
We got to see real time whaling to showoff the new characters without G12.5 and all zeta's and such, so we actually got to see how things actually are and not fluffed up with mods that will never exist for most of us against mods that will never exist for most of us.
It was actually quite good. It was also fairer to everyone since they lost their advantage they had for them and their guild, I mean they always know everything in advance, which always gave both them and their guild massive advantages over everyone else.
The smartest raid team guy I have seen to date is mcmole and he doesn't even have a gamechanger account anymore.....
The Game Changer program exists to drive interest in the game and offer a chance for the end-user consumer to see what it is they are purchasing when it comes to massively expensive (and I count $10 for a 3-star digital doll expensive) products.
And the Game-Changers share their theory-crafting with the community...constantly.
There is no secret knowledge gleaned from the program; they literally share everything they can without violating their NDA.
Some people will just never get over the jealously of someone else having something they don't.
Of course the Game-Changers get access...they drive more interest to this game with a single video than your entire posting history ever will.
They usually don't. They take the ideas from guys like you and me and demonstrate them with maxed everything to make it look really dramatic. Then they slap dumb names on the team/combo..
I called the 3 c3p0 loops and explained each to my guild, and I don't even have him yet..
