"As we addressed on Friday, some of the recent releases have had issues, and as a result we are looking into opportunities to get more eyeballs[...]"
For a few seconds there, I thought we were getting more eyeballs. Then I read the rest of it. :'(
Give me all the eyeballs!
Some of the changes we are considering would make him work synergize more specifically inside a Galactic Republic squad
English is hard.
Ha! I even tried reading it backwards and still missed that. Good catch!
"...we are continuing to consider some changes to ensure his performance under Padme meets our desired performance."
Best line
Desired performance targets, will edit.
Happy Cake Day!
Thanks! I didn't realize that was a thing.
100% agree. Hope this level of communication continues.
Thank you! It's been a really respectful conversation so far - and that helps us open up further. We'll keep trying to be as transparent as we can and share our thought process.
What worries me is them saying we're going to give Anakin a zeta after Padmé is released but will monitor their performance to make sure they're not overperforming. So they're gonna release both and maybe nerf them after people have whaled/geared?
We're running a closed beta test right now to gather that data and ideally make any needed changes prior to Padme's release.
I make those sort of mistakes all the time at work and sometimes you just gotta look at and laugh. Glad you were a good spirit about it. Sorry if I came across a little mean.
Not at all, friend!
Very curious about the 50/20% numbers they cite.
I always though they have more complex balancing (or mis-balancing) logic, like offense/defense win rate tiers based on the gear levels, zetas etc. Not just an average of everything which can be skewed.
It's far more complex than the top line numbers, but these numbers are a good conversation starter.
I know this is a shot in the dark and won't happen but can we please get a comment on why CG thinks they need to dictate the meta to how THEY see fit, and not let players dictate it themselves, as it has been traditionally in this game.. and almost every game a meta takes place in. I know how I feel about this, I know how the majority of the community feels about it.. It'd be nice to get a devs perspective on it.
This is an interesting question and there are tons of nuance to sort through, so maybe this isn't the right forum, but I'll make a note and perhaps we can address it in an upcoming Q&A or dev interview.
