Hi Holotable Heroes,

In the State of the Galaxy today we talked about launching a Dev Tracker for Galaxy of Heroes. Ultimately, we believe we need a better way to more regularly communicate the status of issues. Long known issues posts on the forums can be hard to digest and maintain. To solve this, we reviewed a ton of different solutions, including working with several teams inside of EA. We landed on a dedicated Dev Tracker Trello board... Read more

Hello Holotable Heroes,

It’s that time again - State of the Galaxy! As we are writing this State of the Galaxy, we’re recognizing that these may not look the same every time. Last time we spoke mostly about our intent and this one is mostly a check in - although we do have some new things to report. Let’s dive in.

Follow Up - GAC
We’re making progress on getting the next Championship (and our first, lightly themed one) pulled together. Our first themed championship will focus on the First Order and you’ll see First Order flavored feats, portraits, and titles. Start dusting off your First Order characters and get ready for the Championship after ... Read more

Hi Holotable Heroes,

There is a price discrepancy with the Galactic Upgrade Kit III bundle. Currently, Android has the bundle listed at a higher price than iOS. This is not intentional and we are working to get this fixed as soon as possible. Anyone who purchased the bundle at the higher price will receive a refund for the difference. We will provide more details on when this will occur once we have resolved this issue.

Apologies for issue,
-Crumb

Hi Holotable Heroes!

Today’s Server Update contains a temporary fix for Territory Wars. We will be rolling out the server update over the next hour. Once complete, we will notify you in this thread and your client will need to reboot

• [EVENT] - Prevented an issue that causes Territory War Fleet Nodes to lock out Guilds. Read more on the topic in our post here

Hi Holotable Heroes,

Today’s Server Update will include a temporary fix for the bug that causes some Territory Wars Fleet Node to lock out Guilds from accessing the node. This occurs when a player removes a starting reinforcement unit after placing several reinforcements and leaves a slot in front of the other ships open (see below). You can still set up a squad on defense without filling in all reinforcements or placing none at all as long as you don’t leave a reinforcement slot open “ahead” of other reinforcements.

In the short term, players will see the error below if the bug occurs and their squad will not be placed. You’ll need to restart your client and you can place your squad again correctly.

We apologize for the inconvenient restart in the short term but it’s important to get this temporary fix in place quickly... Read more

Hi Holotable Heroes,

Here is a list of some of the upcoming events for October.

Daily Login Character for October: Poggle the Lesser

Hi Holotable Heroes,

There are some upcoming changes to the buff, Advantage, and we wanted to clarify some current inconsistent interactions. At the moment, Advantage works differently depending on the circumstances. Sometimes when you can’t crit (IE the enemy dodges) Advantage is consumed and you don’t get any value out of the buff but in other cases, like Critical Hit Immunity, Advantage is not consumed. Here how Advantage currently works:

1. You have Advantage and your opponent has Critical Hit Immunity. Advantage will not be consumed in the attack.
2. You have Advantage and your opponent has Foresight. Advantage will be consumed in the attack.
3. You have Advantage and your opponent has both Critical Hit Immunity and Foresight. Advantage will be consumed in the attack.

To address this erratic behavior, we are changing Advantage to no longer be consumed when the attack is dodged in the next Content release.... Read more

Hi Holotable Heroes,

Grand Arena Championships wrapped up yesterday and it's a good time to talk about the plans for the next Championship.

Our goal with Grand Arena Championship is to make each event feel unique with new feats, titles or even new mechanics. The changes for Championship 2 are not ready yet, so, instead of delaying entirely, we will rerun the Championship with the same feats and titles as before. This gives us time to finish making changes and you the chance to continue to earn rewards while trying out a full Grand Arena Championship with Relics. We also have a valuable opportunity to gather some useful data on matchmaking and character balance with Relics in Grand Arena.

This Championship will be functionally the same as last time. Points earned will still count towards your Lifetime Score, Feats will have the same requirements, you’ll climb the ranks to get better rewards, etc. You’ll keep any titles earned last season so you don’t nee... Read more

Hi Holotable Heroes,

I wanted to share a quick update on what the team is currently working on. We are presently investigating and actively fixing a number of bugs from the recent Title Update, especially the performance slowdowns. We are working on getting these resolved as quickly as possible in a future release.

• Here’s a list of some of the issues we’re currently tracking:
• Performance Issues (slow scrolling, laggy character screen, etc.)
• When selecting ships for the Fleet defense squad several ships are vanishing/are invisible and becoming invisible when scrolling through the available ships
• Link to Guild activities can cause a soft crash
• Last seen view for mods not saved when moving mods
• Last used squads are not saved in squad arena and fleet arena
• Advanced Search not listing some Guilds
• Prohibit overlay is not displayed properly on TB Geo
• Can’t place squads or attack some Territory Wa...

Hi Holotable Heroes,

Hi Holotable Heroes,

Our next big title update is upon us! Besides a host of visual changes and bug fixes, Relics are finally here! Head over to the Scavenger and start powering up your characters today.

We’ve also revised the Update Notes and Known Issues from yesterday to include today’s release changes. We are aware and investigating the lag issues that appeared with yesterday’s soft launch. We are currently working on a potential fix. Read on for more info.

Hi Holotable Heroes,

We started rolling out our next big title update earlier today and soon you'll be able to use the Scavenger to breathe some new life into your unused gear.

A quick PSA before you start using the Scavenger, lock your most needed gear! Stop those Stun Guns and Carbantis from being turned into Relic materials before it's too late.

1) Tap on the top left Lock icon


2) Tap which gear you want to keep safe

Hi Holotable Heroes,

Today, we are preparing to launch our next version update - featuring Relic Amplifiers and the Scavenger! This Version Update will begin rolling out to some Google Play players starting this morning - and to all players this afternoon.

The Scavenger and Relics will be locked initially, so other than a handful of bug fixes (see below), there won’t be much to do for the first 24 hours . We are planning to launch part 2 of the release tomorrow (9/11), but it could shift depending on how the rollout goes. At that point, players will be required to update (if they haven't already) in order to access the final features and fixes for this update.

Here’s what you’ll see for Relics and The Scavenger today:

Take your squad to the next level and power up your characters with Relic Amplifiers from the Star Wars universe! Each character has a special Relic that provides stat boosts based on their role and aptitudes. Enhance the power of relics such as Han Solo's pistol, Yoda’s walking stick or Kylo Ren's lightsaber, and other legendary items from the movies and TV shows.

Upgrade these unique items through the new Jawa Scavenger holotable. Bring the Scavenger your unused gear and turn it into the scrap parts you need to bolster your Relics.
