Any way we can have the whales, who insist on plowing all their money into this game ruining it for everyone else, sectioned off?

Once you waste enough of your money you're moved into a different section of the game? Different arenas and leaderboards.

It's a cruel joke on the F2F players who are constantly being punished because for whatever reason they won't spend spend spend.

I understand ea is all about the money and doesn't really care about Star Wars, other than what they can get out of it, but lately this game has become a Pay to Play joke that is all about rewarding the whales.

  • Anyway that the forum whiners can be sectioned off?

    So when disgruntled malcontents make another new account to post incessant inaccurate drivel about p2p v “F2F” (whatever that is), we don’t need to see their posts?
  • 1) you have no idea how much money I have or have not spent on this game. I am certain it is orders of magnitude less than you think.

    2) if absolutely everyone who plays this game decided they can’t or won’t spend money, how long will the game last?

    3) again, nobody is forcing p2p.

    The current Dash event is a prime example of forced P2P.
    Either spend to get him over 3 stars or miss out. That's forced!

    All I'm saying is lets have the big spenders put in their own league so it's fair for the F2P players.

    The only thing you miss out on is three Omicrons. That’s not game breaking.
  • It is not a prime example of forced p2p. What will you miss out on? Do you understand what “forced” means?

    There will be thousands and thousands of players who do not spend get him to 5 stars. What will happen to them? Nothing. They’ll farm him when he’s farmable like they’ve done countless times before.

    And think about what you’re saying - the game only exists because some people pay. Part of what they receive for that money is some sort of advantage over those that don’t pay.

    Why on Earth would people continue to pay for something that doesn’t give them any advantage?

    This event. Still forced P2P. But that's not the point I'm trying to make.
    So you don’t understand what forced means.

    Got it.

    They will still have an advantage. What's the point of playing a game which is

    1) is pointless in the arena when you just get destroyed by whales who need to spend spend spend to feel like their life is worth something

    2) punishes those who don't spend
    And?

    Are you seriously suggesting that the game should reward those that don’t spend and punish those that do?

    If you can’t identify the point in playing the game, there’s one logical solution that will solve your problems instantly.

    Got it.

    Pay or don't get the reward. That's sound pretty forced to me.
    3 omnicrons?

    What about all the packs in the store? Are they forced spending as well?

    I could get 3 omnicrons right now if I spend £35 in the store. But I’m not going to do it.

    Separate arenas and conquests
    With reduced rewards?

    What is your point? Whales are bad, everything should be free, game should shut down?

    If you're F2P you don't get much in the way of rewards because the pathetic P2P whales push you so far down the leaderboards you might as well not bother.

    Ok, I see what this is now.

    Good luck in your quest to drive a game you obviously hate into the ground with a nonsensical suggestion to reward the people who do nothing at all to support it.

    For the record, there are thousands who play the game successfully for free. Maybe if you post your ally code people could advise you how to improve without opening your wallet?

    I get nothing in the arenas because I can't make it into the top 1000.
    If fact I'm so sick of seeing ridiculous whale teams, and the broken AI, I don't even bother with any of the arenas anymore

    Maybe you just aren’t good at the game? Both my arena shards have competitive F2P players…..and I’m a day one player.

    You’re seeing whales above rank 1000?

    Press X to doubt.

    I'm 100% f2p and have zero trouble taking 1st in the squad arena. You've already proved that you're clueless about how this game works. It's the most f2p friendly game I've ever played.
    Good luck with the whining

    A lot of the arena crap is to do with the broken AI but that a different issue
    I have a relic 6 Jedi team Revan lead useless in the arena.
    Ally code?

    Not getting into top 1000 is nothing to do with whales and must be to do with your team composition or mods.

    Of course it's to do with the whales. The spend their money and build unbeatable teams which forces everyone else down the leaderboard.
    Ally code? Or are you not interested in advice?
  • No, but if you post it here, the community might be able to give you pointers to help you crack the top 1000 with some team changes or modding advice.

    I think getting 330 Dash shards from a crystal pack is more likely than you posting your ally code, however.
