Two points:
First you irritate the P2P by making qgj free.
Next you irritate the F2P by making the saving of GW tokens worthless.
Exactly who are you trying to appease in your current business model? At this rate many P2P and F2P will quit this game due to the sheer lack of any direction in the current decisions being made. If you aren't appeasing F2P or P2P, who is going to continue playing this game? Just my thoughts on the matter because it lacks any sort of logical reasoning.

I have to agree.
What's the point of being able to refresh shipments when you can only buy at the very most 2-3 shipments per day anyway?
I think they're trying to slow ppl down. They don't want ppl rushing through stuff. It will slow some ppl but not all.
Funny how all these end users purport to be smarter than the devs...who's making millions and who's screaming at their mobile device?
Guess that's why I said "Just my thoughts...". Nor am I screaming, this is just a wall of text, if you decide to put a tone behind it that is your prerogative.
Again it is a kick in the balls but I think some people are over reacting. Its a game guys
On the Galactic War fix it was broken and got fixed to match the refresh cost of other shipments. It was never intended to use tokens and was bugged. I've never used it as I really don't see the need, but to those who have I believe they deserve a return of tokens.
Some people hoard tokens like gw ones so when a new character is added like qgj was to cantina shipments, they could power their way to obtaining and promoting the new character. At least that's what I think some would be doing, not everyone has need to use shipment tokens at the present time.
I'm guessing this is in preparation for a new character(s) going to be added so people can't do the above scenario without spending lots of crystals ($$$$)
If someone wanted to buy excess shards above 7* to spend in some mythical future shard shop, they could have been doing that all along. What would the point be in hoarding for that purpose?
To know whether or not it's worth it. If it's Yoda, they instantly purchase the shards and then convert them. If there's nothing good there, or they see the exchange rate is ridiculous/not worth it, they just use the GW tokens as normal.
Haha yes definitely does hurt regular players (including me) more... Still love this game though.
Then why not wait to when they release the shard shop....
I don't agree.
It's just business. Farmable qgj is a sound business move as is changing gw reshreshes to crystals. Although not an exploit, the gw shipmenot refreshes were too cheap to do and farming gw heroes were too easy. It's a good move....sucks as I have 10k gw tokens saved up.
I don't understand why they didn't give some warning and let people blow their savings first (if they wanted) as they earned those tokens under a specific premise.
I find it feels dirty.
No matter how you justify it. It still feels dirty.
I've never saved any or used the refresh; however, it feels REALLY dirty.
I remember when I first came to these forums and most all posts were positive and upbeat and devs and reps were posting regularly and participating. Now, it's a cesspool and the representatives of CG/EA have all ran and hid under a rock.
That tells me they are doing something VERY wrong if they feel the blowback is so bad they have to run and hide from it instead of resolving it fairly.
There is one thing. Even if you spent a few thousands to get 7* tooons. Next time, when new chars come you have to spend the same amount to be competitive. Not an exaggeration, power creeping and repeating shards ensures this. So yeah, old whales will suffer, new whales will dominate. By old I mean 1,2 month old. It s not as lovely being a whale as you might have thought. Unless $20k is a piece of cake to you.
By the way, does any one actually get Cad Bane in daily or they have decided that I got so many so I dont need them lol.
So we should put up with whatever they do with game. Sure.

Nothing's wrong with the game. It's developing and changing. Try to adapt for in a few months all may turn up side down. Crocodile tears will not help to enjoy this game.
Besides how should a dev respond to this?
"Hey guys, GW tokens were too easy to spend and the 10 tokens for refresh is not correct regarding to the other shipments. That's why we changed it."
Insert your backlash here
Glad you enjoy the game, so do I. Sorry if you don't like my opinion but I will always be vocal about changes in the game whether I think they are good or bad. When the game deserves praise I will give it that, and when I feel like a complaint should be made I will also do that. The stop complaining posts really serve no purpose to the post I made.
