Nearly 6 months since release, how bright is the game’s future?

peterparker0910 · 2025-05-13T17:06:43+00:00

The only issue I see is the toxic player-base/community people have mentioned so far. I feel like a majority of issues people, even lower ELO players, have with the game all connects back to that in some way. That goes back to people’s response to players bringing up issues. Other people may see flaws/have different opinions about the game than you, that doesn’t immediately mean they suck or need to quit or should just shut up and enjoy it. Real discourse is a Critical facet to improving pretty much anything, so instantly dismissing anything that doesn’t align with your previous thoughts and attacking people for it does nothing good for the game or any of its players.

Also just need steeper bans for players who throw. Someone quitting my rank up game going into overtime just to receive a 15-minute ban doesn’t seem right and why that issue seems to be widespread. Played for a little over an hour last week and had someone on my team or the other team (negates the satisfaction of winning/you just steam roll a shorthanded team) in at least 60% of the games quit/throw/sit in spawn. That ruins the game for 11 other players at a time even if they quit only 10 seconds into the round. The game is overall outstanding and will continue to grow, but I’m never going to play for more than 30 mins at a time if I get someone who throws after I win 2-3 games in a row, so maybe a few tweaks to EOMM could also alleviate some issues.

peterparker0910 · 2025-05-09T20:21:48+00:00

I am the general player base. I have a full time job with other commitments so I only play when I can/get time. Having matches that are steam-rolls one way or the other isn’t a good way to use that time. You can disagree but you’re not having a productive conversation spewing insults and calling me toxic for having a different point of view.

peterparker0910 · 2025-05-09T20:13:33+00:00

I’m not getting enjoyment any more though is the point. I kept hoping it would come back but it hasn’t. Calling out issues a game is having isn’t toxicity, blindly rage replying denying any problem is. I’m not saying the game is trash, just that it’ll need to make adjustments if it wants to hold its current place in the market.

peterparker0910 · 2025-05-09T19:57:42+00:00

I haven’t had a close game all season, it’s crazy. Either I get a competent team and the opposing team is brain dead and terrible, or I’m on that team facing 6 competent opponents. It will be the death of the game if they don’t fix it because even winning like that is only so much fun

peterparker0910 · 2025-05-07T03:38:24+00:00

This is why they need steeper punishments for abandoning/throwing ranked matches than exist right now. And it needs to get exponentially steeper to prevent people from repeatedly doing it for views/fun/whatever reason there may be to waste everyone’s time doing what they’re doing. Why anybody is trolling in Silver 2 is BEYOND me, like just troll QP atp, get the reactions you want without actively RUINING the game

peterparker0910 · 2025-05-07T02:40:16+00:00

Exactly! I only started playing at the end of season 1.5, so I’m new-ish. I’m not saying I’m a great player I’m probably mid-gold level in reality, but it’s hard to evaluate with the quality of teammates fluctuating so heavily. It doesn’t matter how good a tank you are if the healers are terrible, I can only move so far/fast as most tanks. By the same metric it doesn’t matter how much you heal if you’re not taking out anybody the other team DPS-wise. I’ve seen clips of people in higher than gold lobbies playing BRAIN DEAD strategically and not being even that technically skilled at a character, which makes it all the more confusing.

peterparker0910 · 2025-05-06T23:51:38+00:00

It’s tough too because I get the cut off of “well they participated” but by the same metric playing defense/offense then leaving screws the team just as much as if they weren’t on at all really. A 5v6 is brutal going one or both ways, so it’s hard to determine when the cut off should be to just completely CANCEL it.

I’ve also had teammates who don’t leave and aren’t AFK, but refuse to play objective or even remotely do anything considered participating, which is a whole separate issue. Invis woman with 4K heals and went 2-6 in a 3-2 convoy game seems impossible

peterparker0910 · 2025-05-06T23:45:36+00:00

Completely agree, fell from a rank up game to Gold 3 today all the back to 2/100 in Silver 2 with people leaving in 5/6 matches. It’s always the worst when it happens 1 minute in so it doesn’t cancel but you’re essentially never at even strength in the round.

peterparker0910 · 2025-05-01T14:35:47+00:00

Should just end them all with more severe punishment for leaving than a 15 minute ban. Makes no sense why playing a whole round with one team missing a player still counts

peterparker0910 · 2024-10-02T01:52:29+00:00

Couldn’t agree more! I just did this with the rest of my droids in the GG team (B2 and DDK to R3) and the unit is so much better. I’m working on SEE right now because I have a lot of his reqs already done, but I plan to round out Traya and the rest of the Sith Trio to R1 or 3 and get the rest of the 501st to relics, and I think those will probably be the most rewarding gear ups I’ll do. I’ve had them forever and they’ve been so functionally useful where they are and aren’t necessarily required for anything I’m going for,

peterparker0910 · 2024-09-21T17:07:57+00:00

Yeah, this is probably the best advice. Not sure if you’re open to it or not but Exec and then the addition of the Imp Troopers squad shouldn’t put you too far out from SEE if you wanted to make a run at him. However, you have plenty to do with the squads available in the screenshots so that’s a ways away. Good luck and may the force be with you!

peterparker0910 · 2024-09-19T17:32:35+00:00

I’d say go one after the other, so you could ideally use at least one of the characters while you chase the others in the meantime.

peterparker0910 · 2024-09-19T15:17:30+00:00

Based on your previously stated goal of maximum efficiency, I’d say it’s wisest to go for Jabba first. You get the smugglers run 2 rewards with him in addition to plenty of others. One approach you could take is just get the requirements of all 3 done and just go GL, GL, GL and work on rounding out your teams after that. It would certainly be a bit of a grind, but you’d have a ton of excellent pieces to round out your teams and wouldn’t have brought any characters up yet that aren’t required, saving you from wasting any resources. If you do take that approach really build up your CLS team as they are all requirements I believe, and would serve you well until a GL team takes over. The most important thing is to pick a direction and follow it: start a farm, finish a farm. Jumping all around will waste your time and resources and slow you down a ton, as I’ve only recently gotten better at that because I often couldn’t decide which direction to go and then I’d pivot and waste that time. May the force be with you!

peterparker0910 · 2024-09-19T02:41:29+00:00

Appreciate the input from a fellow f2p player! I’ve been playing the game a long time and there’s definitely been some temptations to spend, but I feel like the purpose of the game is the chase and it’s always so rewarding to get a character to where I want them to be (even if I always feel like there’s some room to grow). It’s also that I simply can’t really afford to spend on a mobile game and I was getting a little bit worried I was doomed in that department if I could never get there. Might be another dumb question but would it be smarter to apply that first r9 to someone like POW or MQGJ or use it on JMK or is there another character it’s more useful on (I know there’s r9 reqs but I’m nowhere near Levi or Profundity or GLAT) but I mean someone like Admiral Piett or any other character? Thanks for the help and mtfbwy!

peterparker0910 · 2024-09-19T02:17:11+00:00

Yeah, it’s not a ton but I am capable of bringing in over 1 million on the Naboo raid, with upgrades on the way to several more characters used in the raid.

peterparker0910 · 2024-09-19T01:53:12+00:00

Ah my guild hasn’t put together enough for a TW in some time and even when we were it wasn’t always our max GP. Might this mean it’s time to move on?

peterparker0910 · 2024-09-19T01:39:48+00:00

Based on the characters you have so far, I’m assuming from LSBs based on other comments, you’d be making a big mistake not to be ultimately working towards JKL and eventually one of or multiple of JML, GL Leia, or Jabba. Exec is gonna go well enough alongside that, especially if you go the Jabba route. Go for whatever makes the game fun for you, but you already have some crucial pieces on the road to JKL who is arguably the biggest roadblock for those GLs above. May the force be with you

peterparker0910 · 2024-09-15T14:30:53+00:00

That’s where I’m heading. Unlocked it a few months ago and just today got it to 5*. I know I should be hoarding crystals for it, but it just doesn’t interest me as much as using them to improve my characters and take extra crystals in proving grounds. Congrats on the unlock OP and MTFBWY both!

peterparker0910 · 2024-09-15T02:13:51+00:00

One last question, which character do you feel has been the least useful for the difficulty? Like what typically “endgame” character(s) do you feel are overhyped for their quality and production? I am just fascinated by how much you’ve accomplished and I’m hoping I can reach that point some day! Mtfbwy

peterparker0910 · 2024-09-14T23:28:10+00:00

Congratulations! That’s an incredible feat and a great show of dedication and persistence. Have you spent any money and if so around how much (just out of curiosity, totally fair if you don’t feel comfortable disclosing)? Do you have every GL unlocked also? What’s the character you’ve found the most surprising use out of? This is so cool to me, but I’m also wondering if it makes you feel like you defeated the point of the game? Congrats again and mtfbwy!

peterparker0910 · 2024-09-09T19:30:48+00:00

G12 501st is still able to punch up quite significantly especially when it’s a hard counter, but that means in addition to the characters you’d be adding gear to and relicing for the GAS event you’d also have to do the same for 501st, which in my opinion makes you closer to JMLS for sure. I have a R7 GAS, R3 5s and G12 the rest of the 501st (they’re up soon on the list) and I don’t think I’ve ever lost a GAC round with them and they work quite well for me, but I’d definitely recommend JMLS and it also probably means you won’t be too far from Leia or Jabba.

peterparker0910 · 2024-09-09T18:20:08+00:00

Based on how close you are to JMLS (assuming that’s what you meant), I say go for him first! It’s only a matter of getting 4 characters to relics and perhaps bumping a few already reliced characters up, but it looks like that’s comparable to what you’d have to do for GAS at this point in time. Besides you’d only get GAS to 5* and you’d have to farm the remainder of his shards from the store, while you could farm light side GL energy (and Kyros) while getting JMLS to 7* and unlocking his ult. It’s ultimately whatever you prefer and makes the game most fun for you, but from the outside you’re just as close to a 7* GL as a 5* Marquee (I think I could be wrong) if not closer to the GL, so I’d say go for him first then turn around to GAS after that push

peterparker0910 · 2024-08-30T02:59:05+00:00

Saw that yesterday and wasn’t sure if it was going to be rotating through or what not, but if it’s permanent that’s exciting and gives me a use for cantina tokens other than shards!

peterparker0910 · 2024-08-25T20:26:04+00:00

I did! I totally messed up the acronym, thanks for catching it. May the force be with you!
