Oh look!! Another post on a Friday afternoon that no CG employee will comment on because they know that they will get absolutely ZERO positive reactions from.
After the lackluster "QOL" update a few weeks back this really isn't all that surprising.. CG is a bunch of corporate pieces of (insert creative swear word that accurately describes CGs motives here).
Can't wait for @Kyno to come and defend CG by saying that "we should all be grateful that CG increased it to 5 sims/day in the first place seeing as it used to be 3!"
You could be not offensive at least. No need for that at all.
Seeing as they didn't comment on the Finn update for over 3 weeks which followed the same cadence of posting on a Friday afternoon... I feel extremely confident that NO ONE over at CG will read any comments from this thread as they genuinely don't care about player feedback.
When they announce the return of the falcon followed by the announcement the day after that they will reduce hard node attempts it is fair to say that they deserve backlash.
The worst thing is all new toons are put in single hard nodes (mostly light side). If they think this nerf will make me spend real money, they are very wrong.

Personally I think they care about the comments...they have changed announcements in light of comments but question is whether they have any leeway to do anything.
And really, if they don't, what do you expect them to say?
I’ve been a player for going on three years and it seems to me that I’m always a step behind. I’m free to play with occasional spending and to me when the attempts for hard nodes increased to 8 it helped me to advance and not be further behind.
So today after reading the update by CG I’m forced to voice my opinion and concerns. It already takes months to farm a single character on F2P players and with the reduction of attempts. If CG were to put character shards in the galactic store or others I’d have no problem. However since CG insists on new characters being farmable only in hard nodes I am forced to protest.
If you’re reading this CG from one of your players I hope you feel my displeasure from your actions. I do not want to go back to 5 attempts I’d rather keep my 8. I know there are plenty of others who’ll agree with me.
In a future update we will be changing Hard Nodes back to 5 attempts per refresh. This was temporarily increased with the launch of Mods 2.0 to help players earn Jedi Knight Revan and Darth Revan.
Now that players have had a chance to earn these characters and players will have had much more time to unlock the prerequisite characters in future events, we will be returning back to 5 attempts per refresh.
We will also be reducing the Crystal price of Mod Salvage in shipments with the next update. This will still be a slightly more expensive way to obtain Mod Salvage compared to farming it from the nodes but a more convenient way to get those materials quickly.
I absolutely never complain until I see something that may actually jeopardize a game, I’m going to complain. This is a bad idea, I know you won’t listen, you guys never do, but this is a bad idea. I’ve posted those words 2 other times on a game forum, both games went belly up. This is the kind of move that loses players. The whales stay for a bit but after awhile they will get bored just facing each other and even the whales will move on. I hope I’m wrong but I rarely am.
I always try to be supportive of games, but i find it strange that they continue to actively tell me not to contribute here anymore, what with these bad decisions and all.

I suspect that they have extremely little leeway for changes like this.
I don't expect them to say anything, I know that with decisions like these nothing the community says will change their mind. Which is why I feel confident about being (in your words) "offensive".. Because for me this is a place to vent about their decisions that my opinion as a paying customer offers no solution to.
If they think this will get them more money, I think they are wrong - especially if they don't change the cost of refreshing a node. Why would someone pay the same amount for just over half of what they used to get?
Especially as CG have shown that they are happy to change the Hard Nodes whenever it suits them, meaning there's a strong chance they'll put it back to 8 at some point even if only for a short while.
So it just makes sense to not spend crystals on Hard Node refreshes any more. *shrugs*
I am trying hard to see their logic here. It's not going to increase revenue so why are they doing it?

You get post of the day. Anytime someone takes the opportunity to say they are rarely wrong is a winner in my book. And you did it twice in 1 paragraph.

It will increase revenue...increase farm times means people get more frustrated and willing to spend that 25 crystals. It also reduces ability to prepare for metas so people will have to spend more to panic farm.

I really don't think it will. Maybe that's what they're hoping will happen but I don't think it will.

That's ok to make a feedback. But no need to be rude or offensive at the same time even though the frustration is high. Keep it cool

I've spent thousands of dollars and thousands of hours playing this game. When they make decisions like this that either hinder my progress or force me to spend money I'm allowed to voice my opinion. Thanks for taking the morale highground on this one though. You're right.. I should just "keep it cool"
Increase the drop rate if you do this. There's no reason to change it back, other than money. Please CG, give us one reason as to why it's good for the game to revert this?

I was hoping that with all the toons that can only be farmed through hard nodes, that the increase to 8 attempts would stick. This definitely hurts.
a while.

Cause cantina energy cost more to refresh and slower to replenish.
Fleet is the worst of both.
Which game?

I think this sums up my honest reaction to this announcement. I am really bummed by this decision. Farming just got A LOT harder.
I think people give CG as a company way too much crap for a variety of decisions.
But CRAP AWAY on this one. The more crap, the better. Crap’s the limit. Keep on crappin’.
Crap.
Also for those asking about the "other game", my best guess is Marvel Strike Force.
Can I steal this a put on Facebook lol
