Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes Dev Tracker

Server Update is complete

Just to clarify, Gear 13 is not coming with the new Geonosian Territory Battle.
CG_Cyanides only is referring to the last piece to finish off G12. This will get you to G13 with a shiny new portrait (just like completing G11 gets you to G12) but there are no G13 gear pieces being released with the Geonosis Territory TB.

Why did Crumb add so many reserved comments?

I'm adding each person's responses to each section. Will review this thread for more questions shortly

[*] Q: Will you consider revisiting rewards from Challenges? Adding newer high demand gear, or upping the reward output? -Jorm Gandr
[*] A: CG_Cyanides: We have been looking into Challenge rewards as the game gets older (I'm looking at you Mace), but we don't have plans of changing the rewards anytime soon. As we are always adding new events and new feature modes, those get the priorities for updated rewards. Ideally, we'd release a new tier to the challenges with additional/new rewards in the future.

[*] Q: Are there any plans to improve cheat detection for the game to curb game hacks/cheats, especially with the plans for grand arena championships? -Raknar
[*] A: CG_154M: We do have plans to improve our tools for investigating and actioning against cheaters alongside the Grand Arena Championships launch. Some of them are already live, some of them will be coming at launch, and some of them will be coming once we see how well our tools and processes work in our initial "exhibition" championships. We intend to share more about our processes and policies here in a couple of weeks. We have learned a lot from the initial Grand Arena event system and are applying those learnings to the Championship.

[*] Q: During a previous Q&A, a question was asked (by me) about entry to the GameChanger program. The answer was basically stay tuned more info on that topic coming soon. Any update? How can we gain access to/be considered for entry into the GC program? -JD - Meat City Gaming
[*] A: CG_Erik: Thanks for the question, but unfortunately we're not currently accepting new Game Changers. As you may be aware, we had some restructuring at EA in recent months, and as a consequence we no longer have a dedicated staff member to manage the Game Changer program. We've attempted to support the program as much as possible with the development team, however this is in addition to our other day jobs. We appreciate the Game Changers and the endless energy they've brought to the community conversation - and absolutely want to work with content creators moving forward - but we're in a bit of a holding pattern a...

[*] Q: With the overabundance of KOTOR characters added to the game will we be lucky enough to get Expanded Universe characters from the comics coming to the game? i know quite a few players that would love to play with a squad of Doctor Aphra, Triple-Zero, Beetee-One, Black Krrsantan, and maybe Magna Tolvan. Even just on off characters from the Comics or Books would be great would love to be able to put Mr. Bones onto my Droid Team. -Bevel Lemelisk
[*] A: CG_Tophat: Personally, I love the comic book characters and I regularly try to find a place for them in the schedule. That said, we currently have no plans to introduce these characters into the game at this time. As always, we constantly think about future character releases and may consider these characters in the future.

CG_Carrie's Responses:

[*] Q: Will you ever add multibuy to bronzium data cards?
[*] A: CG_Carrie: There are no plans for this. I think we get this question at least a few times a year, but the short of it is, when ally points were used as the currency in the old Tournament system, that was a big mistake that we made. When we turned off Tournaments, we didn't feel like we could take away the currency that was granted, even though we didn't want it to be used to open Bronzium packs at that amount. We probably should have then, but instead have decided to let it sit, and find other ways for you to spend large amounts of the ally points via the weekly shipments. NR: We'll likely try to find other ways for you to use large amounts of Ally Points on something that's meaningful for where you are in the game.

I've been noticing a good number of Chewbacca portraits in my Arena and in GA but I was curious how many people actually equipped the new Title/Portrait. Our data experts showed me that over 97k players that have equipped the "Loyal Friend" title and the Portrait commemorating Peter Mayhew. That's pretty amazing! Thanks for keeping the memory alive!

Do you always post Friday Fun Facts? If not, you totally should. That'd be a nice, fun little boost of morale.

This is the first time but maybe we can make into something regular. I like cool data!

Server Update is complete and all eligible players should have received their Ability Materials from Nute Gunray's Leader ability. If you have not, please reboot your client now.

Connection Issues appear to be resolved. If you continue to have problems, please head over to AnswersHQ

We have found the issue and launched a fix just a few moments ago. This should resolve the connection issues in the next 30 minute but we will continue to monitor.

Great solution.

One question - If it was over by a stun gun, wouldn’t there be an associated carbanti as well? Or is the assumption that the gearing might have had a carbanti in place of the stun gun, or something like that if not that exact scenario?

That salvage is used for the G12 Stun gun which doesn't require carbantis

RemusQui_Spiuar;c-1850174

Concerning the unique, does the "if" qualifier apply to both the bonus turn and the bonus damage or only the bonus damage?

There are two "If" statements. The first sentence/statement says the bonus damage is conditional on if you have a full team of Galactic Republic allies but not Anakin's bonus turn. Then the second sentence is a separate statement, Padme takes a bonus turn after Anakin if she is an ally

JediRobb;c-1850186

@CG_SBCrumb how could a toon lose bonus turn meter if they can't gain it?

The unique is referring to removing turn meter in general, not specifically removing bonus turn meter

yohann269;c-1850173

Why is GMY a synergy toon, when her kit inhibits his bonus TM? @CG_SBCrumb

While Yoda won't get the extra turn meter, he uses a lot of special abilities and then calls Ahsoka to assist frequently. He also he spreads Protection Up consistently and he's a great source of damage, both of which this team needs.

Frequently Asked Questions:
------
[list]
[*] Q: How many Protection Up buffs can I expect my Galactic Republic allies to receive when Padme uses Cunning Plan?
[*] A: Galactic Republic allies will receive a Protection Up (10%, stacking) for each Galactic Republic ally and each debuff dispelled from themselves. So if Padme has a full Galactic Republic squad (5 allies including herself) and dispels 2 debuffs from herself, she will gain 7 Protection Up (10%). If her allied Jedi Knight Anakin had no debuffs in this scenario, he would receive 5 Protection Up (10%).
[/list]

[list]
[*] Q: Will Jedi Knight Anakin assist twice when Padme uses Graceful Assault?
[*] A: No, he will only assist once. The callout for Jedi Knight Anakin is to make sure he always assists regardless of whether or not he has Protection Up.
