Daily shipments gear pieces cost crystals now?

chuckwing

I have an mk5 furnace for 1615 crystals

chuckwing

And now my kids can't go to college because of it!

@Song Can I buy your stun gun? I need at least 4 of those.

dbraba01

Oh nevermind I need the mark 5

1 mkIV medpack for 1,400 crystals. Is this a joke? I mean do I feel like i got knocked down and kicked in the teeth today? Yes. Sliding in some gear for 1,400 crystals? This is abuse

Let's be honest, your kids weren't getting anywhere near a college even before this.

Having gear available for crystals isn't so much the problem but rather the random placement so that the ones that cost credits are right beside it.

I don't know if this was just poor design and unintentional, or devious and intentional

chuckwing

@Showdown4lpha if I actually had them they probably wouldn't.

So is the 273 price for a full gear also or is it 1 or 20 that you need? If its 1 of 20 needed its a rip off big time.

**** I DID THIS ON ACCIDENT THOSE ******* SNAKES IN THE GRASS. I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS.

Vyse

This is absolutely garbage, they out it in the same place the old one with credits was located

@RU486 273 crystals for the entire part which you need 20 salvages for. Worth it since I had some extra after the Ewok bundle.

Same happened to me 1400 crystals gone - for gear I didn't even want - and it was not the first piece that you can see but one day f the three at the bottom - feel very ripped off and tricked.

Thanks, that I could live with, 1,000+ for other gear is ridiculous

@EA_Jesse this was pretty grimey Jesse, Ill spend money on your game but not like this.... Someone mentioned it before, taking advantage of muscle memory is trashy

MASSHOLE

The update in itself seems like it has potential. They have to fix the guild rewards as well. These shipment changes are absurd. Has anyone had any luck getting them refunded?

SNAKEMAN

I lost 300 to 600 crystals because I didn't notice come on EA/CG at least separate them from the credit ones

Seku

I liked it being credits way more. I won't buy them now for that outrageous crystal price.
Sad

WayoftheGods

Agreed, Something to buy with credits was great, and I still found a lot of the gear to be relevant. This new format in shipments is terrible, and its implementation was shady af.

Spiderkiller

Congrats EA on completing the bait and switch in the shipments. It's been buggy all day so when I saw an piece of gear in the top left of my screen didn't think much of it. Just I'll take 2500 credits out of your account. Up until today gear has ALWAYS cost coin not crystal. Now you flipped the script on me to the tune of $20. Thanks EA DISNEY LUCASFILM. Why don't you tell me next time or do you plan on bringing Jar Jar as a playable character and force me to pay another $20 just to keep playing

Another money grab attempt, but this one actually worked.

Magisto

I almost clicked it too. But whatever, I don't have enough crystals anyways.

MASSHOLE

Money grab? I'm not so sure. regardless this was a big mistake. Anything costing crystals should have another confirmation pop up, especially since this previously only cost credits.

If you think this wasn't intentional you are beyond deluded...

It's a money grab. You should know by now that that's how EA works.

Madhady

They better send us crystals for this ridiculousness. The greed from this update is baffling.

Nikoms565

SURPRISE!!!

Entropy14

Lol I almost got caught, lucky I didn't have enough crystals to complete the purchase. Very shaky EA, and you wonder why you are nominated or win the worst company each year.

EojRen

This one made my heart sink. Im a mostly ftp player but bit on the daily crystals because i was always so low. Ive been scrimping and saving and had it up to 2000, which id whittle down over time, and i just did the same like you guys...my whole savings gone. I didnt realize the change to crystals and wasted my whole thing. I just emailed customer service, but if they dont refund it, thats the shadiest move ive ever seen any company do.
