"Whenever the user gets close to accomplishing his goals we shut down his dreams and cut his drop rates so he goes to the store and buys **** due to impatience and we make extra bucks".
The system is not designed to help the player but the house, always.
Whether CG are lying to us or not, what they are using or not using, at this point, is irrelevant.
When you have so many people complaining about the same thing, something is clearly wrong.
If someone calls you crazy, you laugh and brush them off. When the 2nd, 3rd, 4th etc person tells you the same, maybe it's time for you to ask yourself "are all these people crazy or maybe, just maybe, they might be right...".
I understand how gaming works, been playing games for over 20 years. This is not right... CG should meet players somewhere in the middle. If you constantly p1ss against the wind, it will only get messy for you and at a certain point you will get fed up and stop doing it.
What I think CG are doing very wrong is the pricing.
Why put exorbitant prices on pixels which only a relatively small base of players can afford when you could put much lower prices which a lot more players can afford? Wouldn't that bring more revenue in the long run?!
It would also massively narrow the gap between players and make the game generally more competitive.
Maybe I'm wrong, it happened before.

Absolutely my thought, at actual prices i would have to spend 120.- bucks to unlock Drevan, no way i'm spending that much, but if it would be the half, so lets say 60.- i would seriously think about it...

Got zero Zeta mats. I would have been better off playing GA for my rewards. Not sure why the “sticking” up for a decision to put skilled GA strategy vs lottery.
Why are mods locking threads about this? Is discussion frowned upon?
That’s what happens. They are so out of touch with the player base when it comes to messing stuff up in the game and later rewarding badly it’s just astonishing you could keep messing that part up after player outcry.
The thing is those with a lucky couple pulls won’t complain about Zeta drops as they are excited for a big reward. If those same people got zero they would be up in arms. As I read this I can see the big difference and again my skillful GA rewards shouldn’t be tied to a lottery.
So much for being compensated rewards when playable content is removed. I received ZERO Zeta mats today from ship challenges.
Except you're not being compensated. The loss of GA rewards is being "offset" by these double drops, which does NOT imply or guarantee parity to the missed rewards.

Right. Everybody doesn't get that in GA not everyone gets first place rewards. Some get no zetas when they don't do well enough in their matches.
I'm aware a patent exists. But your answer is nonresponsive.
1. Do you have evidence that it is being used?
2. Are you just a lemming that reads/hears a headline and starts repeating it as fact?
1 I have as much evidence that it's being used as you have that it's not. This is EA we are talking about, I don't trust them, never did.
2 I've been saying this since december 2015, in one of my first posts. I'm far from a lemming.

34 pages when they can simply say:
"Whenever the user gets close to accomplishing his goals we shut down his dreams and cut his drop rates so he goes to the store and buys **** due to impatience and we make extra bucks".
There, saved them 33.9 pages lol
Math is hard. Who knew zero would be so important.

Same here. At least 10 people stated on Discord that they had 0 zeta; very few omegas as well.

No need for a brag thred, the positive has to balance the negative. That is the way of the force, Padawan, balance.

That's nothing. I shill so hard I got 12 in my inbox and I haven't even run my challenges yet.
