Update: This appears to also impacting some devices with OS 8.0+. We believe we have found the issue and are working on a fix. I will share more details as soon as I have them.

There was a hint at the timeline in yesterday's Q&A :)

@CG_SBCrumb

EDIT: The team has answered a ton of questions that I still need to post and many of stayed extra long today. I won't be gathering any more questions from the thread at this time but most answers live shortly!

Stayed extra long? Isn’t it like 2:45 there? What time does your workday end? Think I may have found part of the problem...

I only asked them to stay for an hour and half to answer questions and they stayed much longer than that. They also have their jobs to do Read more

yo @CG_SBCrumb how bout those 20 or so questions you said you had answers to from the last q&a? You took lunch and promised to post them later and failed to deliver.

I did added a bunch more after lunch but ran out of time to do all of them. There's sooo many!

TOPIC: Mechanics/BalanceQ: You’ve stated that the difficulty will not be rolled back after this TB (sic) and that it is to stay the same, can you provide some information as to what’s coming to help level the playing field. Players are worried that this new addition will be hidden behind some massive paywall that will weaken the total community by player retirement.

[*] A: CG_Tophat - There's a discussion in the community that with this Territory Battle is setting up for a future progression system element that is imminently planned (the theory is typically this seems to be in the next two or three months). Geonosis Light Side is intended to be a long term piece of content that will take some time to master. The difficulty is intentional. We've tried to account for player theory crafters who generally do a great job of finding very powerful strategies in these pieces of content. We do not at this time have an expansion of relics, level cap increase, etc planned in the next three ... Read more

TOPIC: QoLQ: I have asked this question in the last 3 Q&A’s and you have never answered this question that so many want an answer to. Quality of life seems to have totally fallen off the radar. When are we going to be able to simulate the tank and sith raids. It is ridiculous that we have continue to complete these raids and it creates totally unnecessary tension in a guild by people fighting for the best slots. Second, mods are my biggest frustration of the game. I have farmed mods nonstop since the rework but have not once gotten a mod with a secondary speed greater than 21. A circle secondary speeds greater than 15 are exceedingly rare. This is a great frustration of many negatively affecting our experience in the game. It’s so bad it is like CG is deliberately punishing the players. This is a major quality of life issue. Stop ignoring these important questions. Thanks

[*] A: CG_Tophat - Apologies - I don't think we're actively avoiding this question. We get a lot of questions ... Read more

TOPIC: Technical IssuesQ: It's been going on for over a year now, when will you fix the bug where the game freezes and buttons disappear? I almost lost a perfect record in GAC this time around due to a game crippling bug that you can't fix.
[list]
[*] A: CG_Tophat - Our recently released "battle restart" tech covers about 90% of instances which is a great improvement, but still 10% to fix! We are about to start looking for the next source of the disappearing button issues.
[/list] Q: Did you ever fix the Fives bug? Or does he still need to be in the 5th spot?
[list]
[*] A: CG_Tophat - Still needs to be in the fifth spot. It's something that needs a client release to fix and it's a lower priority item compared to some other things we have ahead of it.

TOPIC: ContentQuestion Template:
Q: The Mandalorian. I have spoken.
[list]
[*] A: Tophat - Still no current plans for it. We're targeting for some time next year, but no clear timeline.

TOPIC: ArtQ: In comparison and contrast to models and skins from the Star Wars movies and TV or animated series, which theme do you like the most? For example, in the prequel movies, an original model of B2 Battle Droid seems compact and has one wrist blaster built on its left arm. Later in animated series, its body is bulkier than the original ones from the prequel movies and armed with two wrist blasters on both arms.
[list]
[*] A: CG_RagingSpaniard - This is entirely up to the individuals taste so I cant speak for the rest of the art team. I personally like stylization because it allows you to get to the essence of the characters and settings in a way that live action can't get to sometimes. For instance those Galaxy of Adventures shorts are outstanding and I love them, but then again I really like anime so thats a natural fit for me. The art team has a very diverse set of likes and dislikes so we try to leverage all that information and distill it in something thats uniquely ours. On... Read more

TOPIC: Economy

TOPIC: GeneralQ: Guilds may be great for big groups of friends but I am a solo player. How can I get raid only gear if I am the only member of my guild producing raid tickets and/or taking part in raids and/or territory battles?
[list]
[*] A: Tophat - We made a decision a long time ago about how important/required guilds would be. We decided on making a significant part of the game experience related to guilds. We have no plans in changing the structure of how the rewards or experience of guilds play out. The short answer is you'll need to join a larger guild if you want a regular flow of those items.
[/list] Q: Are we getting any closer to having a more organized way to farm gear? Still waiting for that QOL update where we can choose "favorite" gear to farm it without going through character interfaces.
[list]
[*] A: CG_SvenGG - We are exploring a feature to rework the inventories to introduce a gear inventory, which could introduce functionalities like favoriting gear or crafting and fin... Read more
