Putting the Malevolence in the GET 2 store this soon after Negotiator was introduced would be a HUGE mistake. If the Malevolence is better, it will nullify the investment so many of us have put into your shiny new Negotiator. Most people who do have it only have it at 5 stars so far. This will anger a large fraction of the player base.

CG: So we listened to the community and decided to add the Malevolence to the GE Store and instead of getting 5 shards for 1350 GET2, we actually adjusted the price. Now you get 5 shards for 2000 GET2, this will make the community feel prouder of their accomplishment!
Was always like this .... will stay like that
Actually, they said "scrap tigether quickly". This doesnt match anything like that. Keep eating rhe line. This isnt an okay move.
I know when people rag on a game you love, its natural to defend. Youre going to be one of only a few left playing and defending these moves.
One more shot to get things right with Episode 9. One more 5 star unlock. One more GET character. One more technical issue. One by one we're taking our bow and heading to the door.
Siund still broken. Buttons in TB still vanishing. And AGAIN im having log in issues....
All while they scramble to take back Malak shards.
First, hoarding an unspent resource is not an investment.
Second, what makes you think they wont release a new better capital ship right when you get your Malevolence. They are creating an environment where players dont trust the game devs and are fearful to invest in our ships/heroes in a hero collector game. These moves create antagonistic feelings between players and devs.
Devs: here's a great new ship with an exclusive unlock currency!
Us: Great! We will engage with your new content. Thanks!
Devs: we hope you didnt fall for that. Here's something better that requires the currency you just spent on our new content.
Exactly, many players have held off buying Negotiator simply because just like with Malak & Ganakin, it was highly likely that Malevolence AND Negotiator were both going to be GET Mk.2 buys.
Anyway, they've already announced that it'll be gained that way now, so people have already started making choices based on that official confirmation, so they can't change it now!
What are you even talking about? This was the most obvious thing that has ever happened, and is absolutely no different than Hermit Yoda being followed by Wampa.
Hoarding is not an investment. Buying gems and refreshing nodes is an investment. And that’s how this game did work for years until recently with GET currency. And nobody is surprised, not liking this new way to farm should not be confused with being surprised by it. People in my shard without Negotiator are already missing payouts so if they wait for Malevolence, how many crystals will that cost compounded daily?
I don't like the negotiator and saved for the reliability that GG or FO Capital ship will be arriving shortly. I have the currency to unlock it as soon as it launches. You're upset that you have the Negotiator? Figure out what ships to use, maximize your fleet, I'll see you in arena battles. It isn't about one vs. the other... it's not about the same currency and deciding between wampa or hoda, Malak or GS, Negotiator or Malevolence. You're irritated that you can't have both?
I don't enjoy LS units as much as DS. I'd rather have R7 GG than GK, and I think despite which is better, I saved because of the character and universal viability. I don't think it's fair to get upset because it might take you time to get both. We don't know which will be stronger. They will be equal, dependent on which ships you use.
Because GG R7 is better than GK r7.
The devs have great ways to making us level up characters and ships that nobody uses. I agree I see them making negotiator the ship to unlock malevolence. They loooove making us waste saved resources just to unlock something so that we either pay for more resources or wait and farm our way to the top once depleted.
Nah dude, YOU made the choice of spending on the Negotiator. You had your fun with GK's ship, now it's our turn.
And anakin ahsoka and Clones are better then geos
So the Pilot of the Capital ship wont win you the battle
In addition ship battles are doable with thrawn and HT
Will be hard with mace when everyone has to platoon their falcons
Of course it is. I've invested in the future by holding the required currency. As soon as it drops I can unlock, if I want (hint: I won't, because it might not be better than Negotiator). I also have all the prestige I need to instantly max.
And, again, as has been pointed out, this was extremely obvious. We knew Malevolence was coming. We knew we were getting another GET2 farm. Not sure why people get all uppity about things they knew were going to happen.
Didn't Wampa and Hermit Yoda get released together at the same time?
This one they didn't. It's not really a choice unless you hoarded.
Wrong, you have not invested it. If CG said we are giving everyone a 7* Malevolence out of the goodness of our hearts (not saying they will, just giving you a hypothetical) you could still use that GET2 for the Negotiator because it is not yet invested.
Once it is spent, that is the investment. By keeping money in your checking account, you are not investing, you are saving. By buying a stock and riding the ups and downs of it, you are investing in that stock.
No, I have 100% invested in the future of my game by not jumping at the new shiny. Just because you're mad that you invested in Negotiator and now can't invest in Malevolence, doesn't mean I've not invested mine by leaving them in savings.
No they weren't. HY was released with LSHoth, and Wampa was released with DSHoth. But I still don't think it was the same, since GET1 was much easier to acquire than GET2 is now. Not only was the Hoth reward pure GET1 (rather than being split), they soon added TW and HSTR as additional sources of GET1.
My hope is that they add more sources of GET2, by adding it to the TW/HSTR prize or introducing a new raid. That may be a naive hope, but they did do it for GET1.
Another reason it's not the same is that while HY and Wampa were good characters, they were not meta defining. Different story with powerful capital ships. That said, it's really not a big problem unless one ship is clearly better. If they can beat each other, or if rebels can beat seps, then it's fine for arena. I'm only complaining because I want both for TB/TW/GA.
