It's been nearly 6 months since they took it out for rework. Seems like they have completely ignored it since. As much stuff as they put in that's a blatant cash bait, you'd think they want to bring back the one thing that many free players actually paid money for.

Possibly, but I think that is not working too well for them if that's the case.
So it doesn’t get answered? I love it XD

Player to EA.answer : Is there a chance the crystal subscription in SWGOH game will back? We need it
EA.answer (dev or someone in charge) : Thank you, but we don't know about this. Can u kindly go to the official forum and ask them?
Player :
Hard to say, my suspicion is not, and there is some behind the scenes reason they pulled it. As for doing better, . . . I dunno there, I know a pile of folks that have stopped spending completely, now there are always more folks starting playing and folks that spend of course, but it does seem that the average player has turned the taps off.
I don't spend anymore and I used to buy those packs all the time. They should bring them back.
They are probably grooming new players to spend recklessly and don't care about the longtime light spenders like myself.
They are probably grooming new players to spend recklessly and triumphantly.
You stopped spending 100-200$ a month because a booster pack was pulled lol?

Here.
Link or it didn't happen, when did they say they would bring it back??
As far as I have seen this is the only quote about it
Yeah Smithie, I have done that, not only for me, but for the community as well.... And i know most dont care, but enough is enough, the only reason they removed it, from my point of view is, to get ppl to buy more cyrstal packs, that they cant manage very well, and end up spending more then they wanted in the first place
Glad to have you back btw And sorry for my bad english
Simple math:
Looking in the shipments we see a character shard is about 80 crystals.
A character needs 330 crystals for 7 star right ? => 26400 crystals
Let's say we buy the Most popular crystal pack 2800 crystals => we need 9.42 crystal packs.
In norway that crystal pack is 219 NOK.. so aproximately 28$ using today's google conversion rate.
The price for a character is then around 263 $. this may vary with country.
I'm not sayin she's a gold digger...
But then you look at the lottery bundles for 1299.
A bit of a online casino move here, I wonder if CG has a gambling license.
At least in a casino you have a chance og winning some money back.
I've spent some money on the game, not whale levels but still.
I understand that behind all this content is a lot of development cost and licensing fees. And that the developer and publisher need to make a profit.
But when you look at the cost of a AAA game (50-60$, a bit more for a delux edition or smth) and see that they cost under a quarter from what a character costs in SWGOH...
you feel hustled.
The amount of development of a AAA game i think far surpases the amount of development used for a SWGOH character.
Let's not discuss the crystal cost of gear.. cause then it's just painfull.
Now EA got a lot of flack for the loot box system in Battlefront 2, a AAA mass market game, a lot of negative press and I assume lost a lot of sales because of this.
We on the SWGOH side do not get the same publicity from the gaming media so we keep getting screwed.
I want to play the game, I want more content but I would also like to not feel hustled.
Right. so it was not possible to review an alternative formulation to the booster pack BEFORE ripping it away and simply replacing old with new? (we are not ****. stop treating us so)
Its about time you started looking after your customers instead of your shareholders.
Im sure the shareholders dont go without their lattees and smashed avacados.
Stop being kittens and give the people who fund this game what they want.
