    Didn't it say it was included in today's update? Don't get me wrong I need 7 more HK-47 shards to unlock him and do T2...but I was expecting it today.

    Greetings Heroes,

    Here are the update notes for 3/15/16.

    General

    Droids Fight Back Event (Google Play Exclusive) – in this limited time event players will be required to form a squad of at least 3 droids to face off against the Jawas. The first tier of the event requires the player droids to be 2 star, the second tier 4 star and the final tier 6 star. Players who can complete the event will be rewarded with various prizes, including the chance to receive droid character Shards!

    Didn't say when it was going to start. Just that it was coming. EA did not set the dates Google did.
  • The event says Google Play exclusive. Does that mean it won't be available to those who don't use Google Play?

    Why would you be on android without your game connected to google play?
  • I play on Apple.
  • I play on Apple.

    Correct, it's an Android exclusive. If it is an event like Yoda my guess is it will return for everyone later on but it's Android exclusive for now.

    I thought they would have learned after all of the negative feedback from the New Years bundle. Giving such preferential treatment to one OS is not a winning strategy when alienates half of your player base.

    I don't agree about exclusive events/packs etc based on OS Version.

    They are doing it for the most likely free advertising in play store and probably a kick back from Google, same with the New years pack.
    If Apple offered them a similar deal EA would jump on it.

    I hope it comes to iOS later so I can have a chance to devoid my droid count. Lol
  • I don't mind it being delayed, I need as much time as I can. About to unlock IG-100, and working on 88.

    Aren't you iOS users able to sometimes get discounted iTunes cards discounts for crystals or whatever?
  • I'm not even going to do this. I'm not opposed to an os exclusive event because that's just the way the world works. But for me it's not worth trying to build a droid team; I don't see myself ever using to get shards for, once again a droid team I probably will never use.

    Sorry should have said I am not iOS. So not sure about the discount.
  • Was working on Ackbar just cause I'd put some in him before I got Sid and then Savage, but finally, my excuse to pick up 88 is here! :D
  • Only droid I bothered with was 86. I use Android but I am not interested in this event.......do something useful like put Vader and Maul in shipments so we can complete a Sith team. I surely hope by 90 all toons are available somewhere besides random data cards. Data cards are only useful when starting the game to maybe get some toons to put on your bench. IMO cantina energy and shipments are a more reliable way to get and shard toons. Most of my toons came from the free bronzium cards......Sideous,Rey,5555,QGJ,,Offee and many others. If you do spend on crystals the best use is not to waste them on Chromium cards. Hard to get excited by a new Ewok lol,a droid event or Old Ben in cantina. Magmatrooper only available in data cards? Let me spend $1000 for a 7 star toon that I will smash with my current toons for free.........pathetic.
  • will the event be like Yoda's? in that it will be limited to 1 week but open again each month? because I feel like I'm being punished for not making a Jedi team and now a droid team...
  • stop whining you ios users. I'm sure you get some discount or advantage somewhere. so
    stop whining like a little girl and man up

  • Possible rewards for tier 2 :
    • 3lvl 7 training droid

    • 2 shards IG88
    • 2 shards HK47
    • 2 shards Magnaguard
    • 1 lvl3 capacity
    • 2 lvl2 capacity

    Possible rewards for tier 3 : same as tier 2
  • lvl7 training droid is a first time for me, they bring 12k experience points

    Did 2/2 of the last tier just now. Faced against Nesbitt(L), Jawa, and Dathcha. Used HK(L), 88, and 86. HK is gl8 6*, 88 is gl7 6*, and 86 is gl8 7*. It was very easy.

    Got 2/2 HK shards each round, 1/1 lvl 7 training droids, and 1 purple mat and 2 green mats.

    Not bad, considering I'm still trying to 7* HK and 88. This will help a little!
