With Mods **** seriously OP as they are and Whales faring through Cantina energy, I feel the game is ruined.
I have played since Launch.
I make a modest living.
I've put almost 250 dollars in this game and to me that's a lot.
And I feel it has been a waste. That 250 to me might be like 250 thousand to some whales but they're willing to spend a tens of thousands of dollars... people spend more on this game in last 6 months then a family of 4 on min wage earn in a year... with Mods... F2P, Dolphins, etc. Are doomed.
It will litersely be whale v whale and battle of pocketbooks.
I know this forum hates these questions but can anyone say with a straight face unless a player now puts thousands of dollars into this game, they have a chance?
We went from su per F2P friendly to annihilating F2P and small spenders

I'm honest to god asking for someone to explain to me how thus game didn't just get 100% sold to the highest bidder?
There is literally no competition now. It's these kind of moves that disgust me in video gaming now..
My concern is, mathematically, you wont. You literally cant.
Like me? I didn't have ability to refresh cantina energy more then once, couldn't put together 100 mark 5 lvl 15 mods in 30 minutes.... F2P and light spenders are unbelievably screwed rite now
I am willing to wager most forum posters showing off super toons just plunks down between 500 and 10000 dollars in a single day on the game.
99 percent of us can't do that.
The 99 percent are dead
Hmm make a challenge for 2 tons you just released when thier was only 3. Not even trying to hide the cash grab in that one
ruined the whole game structure
So basically, the entire game was just turned upside down. For money only now as all you need is cash to instantly mod up all your toons to insane, instant win levels.
I've played since January and 7 months of work was just thrown out the window.
This is the biggest screwup yet and it sure looks like it's a game killer.
And another good quote from forum too
was going to continue farming characters in cantina. After xx hours my characters are already the equivalent of an undiscovered island nation and I'm tasked with fighting all the world's superpowers combined.
This. Is. Insane.
And not in a good way
You can bet your top dollar on that.
I might be an old school gamer, but holding Street Fighter 2 at the arcade all night with a line of opponents was the best. Would you have paid $1000 against my 50 cents to have Zangief hit for triple damage?
Indeed, so it basically set all whales at the beginning and forces them to begin spending at unheard of rates now.
As a business and sales guy, this is genius.
For a wuick, quick megabuck.
But it will be a death rattle once the Whales realize they've been duped
Could almost cry... I feel like it's guaranteed that this thread will be deleted by a forum mod, all negative reaction on this subject will be surprised because it's in regards to the inaccessibility to the game now for those who are not with large pools of disposable income.
I love everything they did except open the door to let Whales buy the game outright.
But now it is for high investees .
This update makes game dominated by high inverters only.
Others are no Ware close to them.
Before update For a F2p or less invested guy player cantina battles is a good place to farm different characters.
Now for F2P or a less investee guy its highly difficult to pull character from cantina battles as now more energy will be consumed in mode battles.
Itakes this game worse for a less t
Investee guy.

Let's go through this slowly, so you can grasp it. All previous spending has been wiped clean. The value of your purchases before today is sum zero. You get no reward for your support, no thank you, and no hug. The game is reset. You got mugged. Any player can now come in and spend a small fraction of what you did and have a much stronger squad in all aspects of the game.
You seem confused. Everything ever spent on this game thousands included is valueless. Every whale has learned this way before. Meta change. New toon for f2p. Chromium toon going f2p. Jawa engineer. Aurodium toons broken. We know our "investment" is worthless. We do it for "fun." We are okay wasting money.
This is not the floodgates open to whales u make it out to be. Have I invested in this game ? Yes I have. $400 since launch. Nothing crazy, $50/ month is the average cost for a new PS game that I would beat in 3 days and would provide me far less entertainment. I currently sit at #1 on a Nov. shard.
Are the mods out of hand ? Most definitely. The stat boosts should be far lower. They dwarf gear bonuses atm and that seems poorly executed imo. I got hit for a 8k crit by a 232 speed Obi Wan fully modded for crit offense and speed. Not like he needs survivability, right?
Give things a chance b4 the snivel-fest. Ppl were sniveling b4 it was even rolled out. GW is too hard, so they made it easier. We don't have enuf credits, so they boost GW payout. Wish we could trade gear. Now u can. Some ppl r never happy.
How in the hell did you ever MAKE money by not valuing it?
On Edit - didn't catch the sarcasm but some whales really may think that way
Be smart. Study hard. Work hard. Play well.
Yup.
I think I am an intelligent person.
This is a complete and obvious money sink that reset all in game value to sum zero and gives an impossible advantage to people who can endlessly refresh cantina to get the creme de la creme of Mods.
That's where it has to go, I see no other way.
Are the others on the boards disagreeing with me because they don't understand that all players, previous investment totally asidr, just had a steak thrown in the air and to climb up their own piles of money to get it?

As f2p Mods youll get are either tier 3 if you are rng lucky tier 4... Most youll encounter at the end of gw are tier 5.
And if GW has toon like that, what will remain to F2P ? No space at all to even try to have fun ...
And don't get me wrong, I find the update interesting but gap is way too large now between P2P/F2P
I believe only a small number of die-hard whales will support this. It's not about whether I can afford it, it's about whether John Salera deserves my money, and he does not.
The ship is sinking, it's not getting any more of my money.
F2P have easy access to T5 health mods, and it costs about 1.8-2 mil to upgrade 6 of them to max.
Give it a week or two to settle down.
In my case, I'm happy with multiple and various 1 and 2 tier mods than limited 5 tier mods
