So is he coming back soon so guilds can complete platoons or is the idea that the first Geo TB is for the whales and their guilds? Personally I would think if EA wanted us to open our wallets bringing him back at the same time as the first TB would be the way to go so people close will drop coin to try to get it so their guilds can fill platoon squads.

They may do it but there is a lot that someone would have to do simply to use him in a platoon in the upcoming TB. Not all of which can be sped up with money (GET collection specifically).
I suspect this quarrel will end with them stating any restrictions or dialect discussing it was for hoth and not geo.
That's exactly what they'll say and have pretty much said that in the announcement.
This isn’t a slap in the face. I and others have said repeatedly that smaller guilds need to beware. They need to have the expectations tempered.
I honestly hope this is a wake up call for those people who thought the warnings were just to scare you, that it wasn’t going to be that bad. It’s going to be that bad. A lot of guilds will not be able to fill platoons. The missions are going to be difficult. Start preparing mentally to want to throw your phone.
This is pretty spot on.
I also want to add that more Guilds will end up with Malak and being able to fill these platoons quicker than they were able to do so on the previous TBs. This may all seem steep, but its way easier to plan and build up towards than the previous TBs were before they were locked in.
not its not a slap in the face. its end game content and anyone expecting this to be the linchpin in their TB plan, should be ready to be slapped by this TB.
To force more spending on the necessary toons to unlock him.
And yes you can quickly get him to 6-7 stars IF you have the GET saved , and IF you want to keep refreshing the store. Which will take crystals being spent in a large amount.
They said new TB is going to be very difficult. We get that.
But also. No one ever said that Malak wouldn’t return a few weeks after DR as he did the first time so,....let’s just wait and see, and put the pitchforks away
What definitely is a slap in the face is the fact that CG has dangled this TB in front of the entire player base (not just the Platinum Card-carrying tip of the spear) for quite some time, and now nobody is getting additional PvE content. Most of us will be exactly as desperate for more things to do as before, while Geo-ready krakens are actually getting two less days worth of TB. If I were among them, I'd be careful about picking the maiden run of the new TB over Hoth. Given CG's recent performance, I fully expect it to be an utter disaster.
Well given that the Geo TB is coming out in like 3 days I seriously doubt Malak will be returning before then since they haven't even announced his return yet.
Lol true i play at home so those slaps in the face could be considered as a domestic violence
Don't be mad don't be sad just sue his a.**** with Kyles dad (only worthy people will understand)

Bruh I really hope they pay you lots and lots of money man. In your eyes they can do no wrong no matter what, totally unbiased opinion, I mean that's just really funny, Kyno always there to save the day
I wonder how that's related to anything. Just because Malak is end game it doesn't mean those who have him should have to waste him as a platoon unit and not use him in a combat mission for FUN. Which is what this post is all about
It's a balancing act since there are thousand of ones in constant bombardment of -they can do no good-, -they are pure evil-, -the game sucks, I dunno why I'm still playing-s. Objectivity related to a game doesn't exist just by the nature of it being a game.
Apples to oranges.
Platoons have been a staple since tb started. CG tried making it so that pay toons were necessary almost immediately. The players complained. CG caved. This new tb is their opportunity to set the bar high again. I think they should. Moving forward, at least with tb people should expect this type of thing.
That’s not what this thread is about. This thread is about people without malak (smaller rosters) not having malak, not being able to get malak for who knows how long, and their guilds not being able to platoon malak which will make the missions harder without all bonuses.
Unfortunately, that’s the point. It would appear as though CG wants to make the platoons hard to fill.
and you are talking about Malak ...
Have you just seen the power boost of G13 ?
If you would've read the Dev post you'd realize why Malak and DR are in platoons. You should make a "meaningful decision" - sacrificing a very viable squad in return for the platoon bonus which is going to play a major key role I assume.
______________
On a side note: It's not about Malak. When sacrificing Malak you could still throw in SiT and probably be fine with your SE squad. It's the sacrifice of DR that's going to be painful, he's the real deal.
At least I have the pleasure of playing a game I like. Hope you find your fun too.
