This patch was complete and utter crap. 350 crystals is nothing compared to what is needed to fix this - lost Guild Bank Coins, raids prematurely terminated, spontaneous character deaths in GW, a woefully late rollout (10:30 P.M. EST) of an event supposedly starting on July 6th at a reasonable time, access to clearly unintended mod tables, an overpriced new data pack in the store, and a clear screw-up in the applications efficiency (fights in galactic war have characters moving extremely slowly, which seem to coincide with a memory leak sapping processor power).
Same here, my team died as well from winning and as a reward, i got 350 crystals. I think this game is really reliable. They find out problems so quick and gives u reward for have an error in the game. Not like other games, if there is a bug issue problem, they ignore. Good job ea, keep it up. But hope to have my dead team resurrected.
I'm not sure if getting rewards for a game consistently messing up is what I'd call 'reliable'...wait a minute, now that I think about it, I have come to expect and rely upon it happening quite regularly...so...yeah...sure...I can get on board with 'reliable'.
I am not losing Last Node + 1 Full GW and accept 350 crystals as compensation ...I need access to GW within 25 mins so I can fix this myself. I already lost out on Raid rewards ...
Well it's not. My top 5 gw toons are dead on node 1. I use 7 toons to clear it every day. So it's just too bad? 350 crystals? I'd rather my full gw clear rewards.
... and included some game data to help us prepare for our next major update. This introduced a few bugs that the team is working on right now to fix.
I am sorry this doesn't make any sense. It's not necessary to push data to "help" prepare for an update, the data can be included when the update actually happens; the update and data already released doesn't have any correlative relationship.
Also, "a few bugs" is putting it pretty mildly; a lot of people lost GW rewards they were yet to earn and/or were cheated out of their earned raid ranking because other players inflicted insane amounts of damage.
And finally, the 350 crystals feels like a "sorry, but not sorry" offering considering it's the equivlent of less than $3.50 USD; seriously, I spent over $30 USD on this game TODAY alone, and I get 350 crystals? Like the company will go bankrupt if you hand out $5 USD in crystals to every player? Crystals aren't a real asset, you know, EA stock isn't going to plunge by being a little more considerate. Frankly, everyone will just spend them trying to obtain level 9 thru 11 gear, so it's a drop in the bucket for players, might as well give us something that expresses a little respect.
In 5 mins I will lose/have lost: Raid Rewards, GW Last 2 Nodes, 1 Full GW ...I am not accepting those crystals, it's in my inbox and there it can stay and rot. I want EA/CG tech support number right now.
So..still can't get into GW. Every time I try and enter is shows a loading screen that needs a force close to get out of. So due to this "small error" I'm going to lose a full set of nodes because I can't reset. Not only that but from reading what others wrote, my top characters are still dead so the remaining 3 nodes are a wash that I still have without them. I think that's worth more than 350 crystals
Is this error the reason why I am unable to access GW? I just get the clocking load screen that will not go away.
I have just 1 node left to complete the GW. That's a bummer.
Has gw difficulty level been fixed, I can't see it mentioned, I've just attempted gw and made it to node 12 only to face a team at nearly 40k power, my team is 31k, this isn't a challenge it's impossible.
This 350 crystal compensation feels like a sick joke, that's nowhere near the value of a full GW clear or rewards from a heroic raid. @CG_JohnSalera continues to disappoint
The only reason I'm not super mad about the raid bug losing 60,000 guild coins used to start our first Tier 7/Heroic Raid is that we probably weren't going to beat the Rancor in 48 hours anyway. Who the heck said T7 was easier to beat than T6?! Any mercs wanna help next time? Ive got a solid guild, just too many open slots right now...

You just need two solid squads to finish a T7 raid, it doesn't promote depth

Really? I never got a chance to try before the bug killed our raid. I've got close to 28 7* toons of which at least 18 are level 80 and gear 9 or 10. The rest are gear 8 and 72 to 75 for the most part. Wish I could have seen for myself, but one of our top players barely made 6 figures against the guards in phase 1 before the bug hit. I'd like to try again but the rest of my guild is going to be gun shy...

Agreed. 500k credits (full GW) is worth roughly 600 gems. We lost our raid as well. That's another 400k in credits. Add in the gear, guild currency, Hans shards, GW tokens, etc., and this is the equivalent of several thousand gems.
350? Not even close. Already disappointed at the gear pack, and the 1200 gems I wasted to get useless gear.

It's not that bad. Gets easier quickly. We barely finished the first one, and now we barely get in an attack each before it's defeated.

Fix your ****, EA.

UPDATE: The above issues should now be fixed. We sent out 350 Crystals due to the technical issues.
We are still investigating an issue where the game will not load for a small number of players when they enter Galactic War."
What a sham for the raid victims, me included.

Maybe they'll dish out some apology gems to compensate and you could use them to buy credits for promoting. I literally just did that. Lol

Double your efforts.

Good to know, thanks!
