I must be reading that graph wrong because the way it shows is that it has dropped the last week. Because it went from being rated top free game at 143 down to 183. The numbers on the side are not cash right? It is where the game ranked against other ftp games? I am not a member of that site and wouldn't be surprised if I am reading it wrong but that's how it looks to me that it did lose money.
Well I guess it wouldn't for sure mean they lost money just other games are making more then it was.

The graph isn't necessarily actual revenue, just the rank on the chart. It could be the same money, but if other apps made more the rank can go down. But I check it most days and it's stayed above $110k/day for the last few weeks, and when the BH pack was released it spiked to $220k.
And the 143/183 is "Top Free", which is tracked by downloads not by revenue.

I just looked at that again and it does appear that you are correct. If you hover over the line, it is tracking performance against other games in the "top free" category. It appears the revenue took a big dip between Nov 30 and December 4th but it seems to have rebounded or stabalized since then.

The "Top Free" category in the App Store is not by revenue, but by download.

Like I said I could be miss reading it but going by how the chart shows it dropped severely on the chart of income compared to other games. It also spiked but is going right back down again.
Thank you for posting that link though StarSon was interesting to see that information.
Certainly
And I never look at the graph, because it's just regurgitation of the chart rank from the App Store itself, easily obtainable by opening the App Store. I always just look at the $$$ amount. It's interesting to watch it fluctuate. When mods came out there was a steady decline, all the way down to $60k, and it slowly started eeking back up. Double drop weekends always see it hit near $300k. The day after BH pack it was at $220k. When they do the 25% sales it goes up a bit too, but not so dramatic as either of the other examples.
Cannot believe whales getting so upset over this, you guys have characters many players do not and will not attain for months/years due to your paying for the privilege (and fairly so). But along comes google spending an amount you guys cannot hope to match, to support their customers by paying for the privilege and its unfair. I truly hope Apple gets in on the action for ios users, I hope k2 eventually becomes available to all players but I see nothing unfair about the current situation.
Google have pulled off the mother of all marketing plans and its ios users who are doing the leg work.
For those stating that ios should be given a free character or free gifts. Android users recieved nothing for free from ea/cg. This was bought and paid for by google.
Love that after all the talk of prejudice and even racism ios users are now depicting android users as lower spenders and ios users as better spenders.

They always did and they will always do in future ... Its Apple's mind tricks!
Left by design. The fixed payout times are the worst part of this game and makes it absolutely family-unfriendly.
At this point I know EA/CG will do nothing to fix this. I wish they would separate our platforms if they are going to give competitive advantages to one side over the other. Treat it like Playstation and Xbox so the advantage given to Android doesn't screw apple users.
Like I said earlier in the post I won't spend anymore on it because of this mess. Not that one person really affects them.
It would be nice to get Bistan as we can currently only farm him from FS and the free SRP shards make the Rogue 1 Countdown pack provide less value for money for me now. On the plus side, that's one less toon to farm from Cantina now (unless Bistan is plonked there), so I'm not complaining.
We get SRP and Apple users get Bistan... it's soooo unfair... I'm going to delete my account... unbelievable... why do they hate android users so much! First they get Wedge and now Bistan... how is this fair!
I complained and I got banned. Looks like someone is working for Apple in these forums. JK. It's not fair. But complaining about it, isn't going to do anything, but get your account banned. I say just forget about it and move on. Just don't spend anymore.
There are many ppl complaining and not everyone of them got banned, so you might used the wrong language! (i dont know, because i havnt seen your complaint) ...
however ignoring this, wont help either, so you rather complain and hope they finally listen ... @DoomeyEyes where did apple got Bistan? Never heard from it.

Make Zader Great Again!
The article which you linked does not support the claim you made.
Are ios users better spenders so we're not given free characters? =0

No they dont
