Radio Silence

Prev13
I am completely baffled by the lack of any communication, even meaningless communication. You know your community is up in arms over the last week and not even an empty "We are looking at these issues, updates will be coming soon," form response. The weekend I can understand, but I would have expected someone up the food chain to issue damage control directives and start to pacify people with communication.

    Reading the forum Im still unclear where people stand, so i guess the majority dont know either. Some say whales got the best deals, whales say f2p people could now compete with them, where is our advantage. the mods are great, no matter if they stand like they are now or they are how they were at first. I think EA made a mistake buy giving too much credit to those who hated it, instead they should of just left them as they were.
    People are leaving, so what, come new star wars movie, there will be plenty back, maybe even players who want to play this game.
    Other problem is gw. cant really understand people who say dont come here crying if your team aint all that. well, if ya cant finish, guess yours aint either.
    credit crunch, well, in no game meant to be played by adults too are the goals optainable right now, you gotta make decisions. do you want to be the top dog on arena, make a team for that, u wanna go thru gw, well, larger roster. cant manage either, well, that sucks, maybe u gotta go learn something and come back with skills. bring your a-game on.
    thanks to ea, for great game but you gotta remember that if you guys have a vision what the game should be, let it be, dont let people intimidate and tell how it is run. we as players have to have same rules, set by the devs, not by the players who are on charge now.
    I really hope people who love this game, will reply, and give thanks and haters, well, you may say your piece too.

    After reading that, I have no idea what you're trying to relay to the rest of us.

    the game is good, ea is not evil, change is always hard. evolve or die. just giving a voice to the people who feel the game gave what they paid for. nowhere does it say that join the static galaxy where you never see changes.

    I really think you're missing the point as to why the player base is upset and leaving in droves then. I mean, yes, I understand your point but it's not just mods as to why people are angry with the state of the game right now.

    Aside from a few apologists and people who aren't bothered by horrible game design, the wide consensus is that the Devs have seriously damaged this game. People are fed up and leaving in droves.

    This translates to "there are serious game balance issues."

    id love to know what really is the problem. as there are people who have been playing a long time, but for some reason unknown to me, all is bad now. and by the way, gotta say that when in other thread they mentioned the drop of the goh in appstore, well, we shall not go the apple way this time but there is always controversy lying on that firms ethics. :-)

    Well.... I think they have a pretty good track record from not just this game that points to the fact that they are indeed evil.

    The game is good. EA is not evil. His name is Robert Paulson. We don't need to see his identification.

    Well, if the players didn't get a say in the game, there would be no players. :D I fail to see your point, as does @pac0naut. What has this come to pac0? Hahaha.

    @PorMestari

    Poor communication prior to a major update when they knew the update would be contentious (stated by a Dev).

    Poor communication in general.

    Atrocious game balance.

    Patches create more issues than improvements. History of poor implementation.

    General fun level of the game has dropped significantly compared to when I started playing (Jan)

    Company is player unfriendly.

    Relies on addiction and fanboyism for the game to survive. I think more would have left if not for sunk costs (not just money, but time), and the desperate but increasingly absurd hope that things will eventually get better. I think the player base is rapidly losing faith that this will happen.

    Raid reward system.

    Failure to fix bugs that are months old.

    Credits slow the game down to a nearly unplayable level.

    Some people have major problems in GW (this doesn't affect everyone, but it affects enough people to be an issue).

    The list goes on, but there's a start.

    not saying players shouldnt have their say, just saying that i have no clue how many active players there are but i am pretty sure that the ones in here arent majority. maybe roll an update and ask do ya like mods do ya like what ever. and no login in before answer. then we have a clue. maybe im wrong and this rage is in order, but the reasons to leave being mods were powerfull are not, and for the other group we lost our mods power. u got me lost, maybe im just lost in translation.

    That's a ridiculous notion. Top players are not automatically good game designers.

    Well they have acquired a reputation for price gouging and releasing half finished content and then rolling out what should have been included up front as extra money dlc. And I'm not even talking about this game.

    I just don't understand why they don't give us what we want! They never do, they never listen unless it's effecting their sales.

    Key example:

    JEDI LUKE

    Because they are in it for the money. That's the ace in the hole. And they are saving Jedi Luke for when they really need it.

    How long did they wait for yoda? And it came out with Jedi money packs?

    EA is evil. Make no mistake. They only care about your money. Which is understandable. It's a company, it needs to make money. Just call a spade a spade here.
