So, this is probably news to CG and EA.. but the vast majority of high end players in the game, the ones who spend ridiculous or less ridiculous sums on this game, all have families and lives they need to lead outside of playing the game.
The imminent drop of both DS TB and TW, all mind you, on the holiday weekend, where 99.99% of us have families and kids to spend it with, is a real kick in the teeth.
You guys are making it impossible for folks to want to spend any time on a mobile game that going back a year or more, had no such ridiculous time commitments. In effect, you're shooting yourselves in the foot, making what should be fun into a chore, and players are leaving in droves. More and more every day.
I'm far from a casual player. Quite far even, but it's getting to the point where even the most committed are getting sick of the increasing time commitments. With TW imminent and 1 day breaks, literally 9 out of every 10 days are committed to something in game. It's too much. Too much for guild officers coordinating events, too much for even players to have to spend so much time and effort, just to play a mobile game.
Do you guys really have 0 consideration for quality of life or does it just appear that way? Being based in Sacramento, I'd think everyone at CG would have similar considerations or does that only apply to the employees who also want to enjoy a 4 day weekend?

I love Star Wars and enjoy this game immensely, but I fear this may be the beginning of the end. Give us room to breathe and we'll be there as rhe game grows.
Already said above, I have a real job, and as an officer in a guild, I find myself taking on a second job every time that TB comes around. Now, you want to make this a 24/7 job instead of 6 days on 4 days off. Really ? are you guys that greedy for income and demanding we are here in your game that you are going to require us in the game daily grinding away at your senseless waves of content ? This is with out even taking into effect, you are dropping this on a HOLIDAY weekend.
I enjoy playing your game, but it is that.... A GAME. You should keep this in mind with the amount of time sensitive committing content that you are dropping on us.
Space the events out more. Give the players time to breathe. People were asking for content before TB since some felt there was a drought because HAAT was the end game. Now that TB is, that is 6 days worth of commitment, besides running raids and arenas.
I'm not an officer in my guild, but I know how much time and effort they put into coordinating these events, and its not easy. It would be much better if you let the guild decide when to run a TB at least, so they can decide the pace they want to receive awards. Currently, it leaves no time for life events. Vacation hoping to detach for a bit? Nope.
This is all besides having to star and gear toons that are required for events. Seriously EA/CG, ease off the gas a bit.
I looked on the water, didn't find you.
I’m sorry, I just find it hilarious when people complain about having to play a game. It’s a game. If you don’t want to play then don’t play. Missing 1 day isn’t going to kill you. I’m personally glad I’ll have more to play on a day I get off from work.
Good for you, as long as you stay logged in, they have a chance of you buying something! Just like their CFO said he wants you to do.
That's how it starts. Define how you want to play and stick to it. Play the squads you enjoy.
Do not get pulled into their forced way of playing. Play how you want to, and enjoy it.
That's what I've always done. Stuck to droids for a long time, now I've been running FO for a long time. The problem is being a contributing member of a guild. There are so many characters that are mandatory for things, that it is tough to do your own thing at this point.
They shouldn't get in the way of EA's random releases.
It's terribly unfair to EA and we the players who worship EA
There's no holiday in Brazil where I'm from.

Till you get a sense of pride and accomplishment
Kinda off topic don't u think?
Not really, GW is a major time sink in this game. I know I can beat it every day so just let me sim it and get it over with.
