    Yeah I always find it sad how Android players showed zero empathy to Apple players on this issue. But maybe I'm foolish expecting people to behave decently on the Internet.

    It has absolutely nothing to do with empathy. No one said Apple users shouldn't be annoyed or po'd - just that it seems as though that frustration is pointed at the developers of this game. That's not where it should be aimed. It should be directed at Apple. The promotion was a Google promotion - not an EA/CG promotion.

    If I buy a Chevy Corvette and you buy a Honda Civic, should I empathize with you when your car doesn't accelerate like mine? 15 years from now, when my car is long since stopped running and your Civic is still chugging along, should you empathize with me and feel bad because I have had to buy another car? No - you have the perks of a Honda and I have (had?) the perks of Corvette. If anything, you should contact Honda about making a car that has more horses under the hood, and I should contact Chevy about making a car that lasts longer.

    HINT: It's not Android users that are the uncaring bunch - it's the company you bought your device from. Stop trying to paint it as "us vs. them" - it's about money.

    The placement of Baze is nothing but a raised middle finger towards the F2P community, including dolphins.
    Thanks a lot, CG.

    Lol - many f2P have already cleared that node with 3*.

    The reality is that the whole K-2 thing has done more harm to android users. Same as always.

    +1 but the Baze thing should've been better handled. They should've put him in a DS hard node.

    Any chance you can add my ally code please mate, need help with 9A Light side thanks

    Whales pay for exclusivity for at least the promised period, and they should get it. That pays for the free game you're playing, by the way.

    How much do I need to pay to be able to play this game with a good conscience? $10? $100? $1000?

    An A list game on a console goes for around $60, on a PC $40.

    What is my share to "pay to keep playing the game"?

    That said, if this was on a monthly subscription fee I would immediately quit; there are much more involving games around that I can get for $10-20.

    There is the daily crystal package that lasts 21 days for $11.99. This averages about $16/month. This is the monthly subscription fee for SWGOH.

    Your argument makes no sense.

    People are not talking about how an Apple device or Android device functions.

    Taking your Chevy/Honda example, it would be like going to a drive-in theater... the theater decides to contact Chevy and make a deal with them to allow all Chevy owners to get in free. Honda drivers must pay. It is not Honda's fault, it is the theater's fault for entering into this agreement. Honda drivers must not be **** at Honda, they must be **** at the theater.

    Except it would be the other way around, Chevy being nice to their customers and using the theater as a proxy. Everybody here seems to be blaming the messenger when in reality it was Google being nice and not EA/CG discriminating. And IMO the execution (apart from the shard shop part, but whoever was dumb enough to buy it deserves the loss anyway) was OK. Definitely better than half the players getting something actually useful, such as high-end gear...

    First thanks, good to see new toons at shipments and the cadence working out as said.

    On other hand, why u devs have to be evil!?! This is, as always, the felling of the comunity, Baze really need to be at a hard node? We discussed this so much here, because we were tired of toons at cantina and now u make it worst!? I'm not even gonna talk about Chirrut at fleet shipments.

    You all know very well wich toons player base is looking for and u devs make such a bad move, again!?
    As it seems u guys like to read people whining around the foruns.

    Isn't the last node just crystals ATM?

    Sheesh. We gripe because every new char is a victim of power creep and essentially OP. And now we gripe when they're balanced? Come on.

    Ackbar, Pao, Leia, Chirrut, Baze

    Chirrut an Baze counter attacks count as Basic attacks. Leia can triple tap for 3 basics. Whenever Ackbar uses a special, or Chirrut equalize/cleanses or Pao uses his Offense up someone will assist with a basic attack and further decrease Pao's cooldowns. Should be pretty effective, doubt it's arena worthy though but could be fun.

    I was thinking about that, but reducing his cooldowns won't do any good if he doesn't hit hard. Leia would also be good for reducing his cooldowns.

    Tbh i thought that Bistan was Pao...
  • Options
    I think her basic counts as one basic, no matter how many times it shoots.

    I see no use for this guy. Low damage, feeds raid mobs/rex teams turn meter with his wuss slaps, and unimpressive specials that rely on gimmicks just to attain cooldowns on par with every other character.

    He claims to be an attacker, but he really looks more like a support character honestly.

    Ok. Pao. https://swgoh.gg/characters/pao/

    When did he get added?

    He was added into the game yesterday when the client restarted to add all the new Rebels marquee events for Sabine, Ezra and Zeb and they just kinda slipped him in there too.
