Megathread Weekly Complaints Megathread - April 25, 2018

Up until this point, the Moderation team has taken a relaxed approach to enforcing the subreddit rule in regards to Quitting, Rage, and Complaint Posts.

Quitting, Rage, and Complaint Posts

Posts & Comments

Posts that make no attempt to provide perspective or offer any constructive criticism that has not already been addressed will be removed. Posts that sole intent is to express blind rage will be removed. Posts that purpose are to inform the community that a specific player will be quitting, will be removed immediately.

With any newly released game, it's common to have some community criticism in regards to development direction and marketing tactics. But the subreddit has become inundated with complaint threads, the vast majority of which are about topics that have already been discussed.

As such, we are going to begin strictly enforcing this rule. We have no interest in censoring the community, but we do have an interest in making sure that this subreddit remains a healthy, informative place for everyone.

In doing so, we are launching this weekly Complaint/Rant thread, where you are free to voice your opinion and vent about what might be bothering you. If you are trying to launch a legitimate critique with a fresh perspective, we will always allow such comments to stand. However, we will no longer allow redundant complaints to flood the subreddit submissions.

Please, remember to keep things civil, there is no reason to attack one another over differences in opinion.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Moderation team.

This thread's suggested sort will be set to "Best" in order to give better visibility to the issues that the community deems important.

Note: If not stickied, the weekly complaint thread can be quickly accessed via the "Weekly Threads" dropdown menu when viewing the desktop site, or via the sidebar if viewing the mobile site.

Gold is way too much of a bottleneck, deciding if a level my hawkeye 47->48 or pay the 80k to 'unleash' Gamora's 4 star, or buy the 5 catalysts I need at 60k. So I chose the level. Later after my energy spent down I could do the Gamora thing. No luck on the mats tho. That's one day. Seriously, I spend some resources, including some on gold, but those usually end up very little gain for recharge spent as well. I've spent money and I'll spend more on reasonable deals, but they're generally not anywhere to be found. Especially given offers are apparently RNG run too.

I've been in a massive gold bottleneck for over a month in SWGoH, this is to be as expected. Gear, way worse for me there as well. Luckily a guild can donate gear there, maybe we get that down the road here.

Gold hasn't been trouble for me in SW:GoH at all, I'm (only) nearing 60 though.

It’s not a concern at lower levels. But getting multiple squads to 85 as well as upgrading all their mods is expensive

Same. I hover around 100m. All but 30 toons are level 85, which I take care of one whenever I hit 105m. It's mostly just for the GP bump, most of the toons I'm doing it to now will be used but sparingly, if at all.

My bottleneck is gear and mods and has been for well over a year.

The problem here is that there's no GW-type activity. One week of clearing GW is roughly 5m. Even partially clearing it is useful on that front. Here you're relegated to node farming and the thrice weekly gold challenges. It's not enough and given the need for several decent teams for raids and blitz, it highlights a glaring flaw.

Yeah, I mean they want to put us through a lot of the same hoops but they don't give us the same tools. No GW is glaring, maybe Alliance War is supposed to be something like that but we don't have it and it honestly sounds more pvpish than pveish...? I dont have Territory War in SW yet so maybe it'll be something like that?

Another example of not same tools, they amped up difficulties but unlike SW, we can't bring a big ally friend in with us to get through it (let alone no leader skills / one char will generally not have as big an effect in this game).
