Slightly off the beat characters like that i'd be kinda fine with because they are far beyond the bare minimum.
also Doctor Aphra is another example of that.
Starkiller...
HK47
My biggest hang up is that its Luke and Vader who 90% of the fanbase would expect to play day one...
on top of the fact other basic requirement bare minimum characters like Obi-Wan(and Anakin) aren't even in the game yet and are likely to eventually be an even longer than 40 hour grind.
Anybody?

No I want to play the signle player and I enjoyed my time with the trial. I will trade it in a couple weeks if hero issue isn't sorted.
Again keep lootbox discussion to the appropriate topics. People who are buyign the game want to discuss that in here.
Can we keep the loot box sutff out of this topic please? There are plenty of topics to discuss that in.
Agreed. I believe there is another thread discussing the loot box/hero situation, no? Once the game officially launched, it would be nice for this thread to focus on gameplay and not external issues.

Actually the loot box topics should all be merged to here so there's not a ton of topics about the same game everywhere. Sorry if you have a problem with people talking about mechanics in the game in the topic about the game.No I want to play the signle player and I enjoyed my time with the trial.

I thought the main way of earning credits was through the challenges though, where there are daily and weekly ones? The guy who worked out the 40 hr mark, just excluded them which is starnge cus that'll be the main way of earning credits, not just grinding matches.Yep.
Again, I'll point out the progression is artificially slowed. You earn ~350 credits for a Galactic Assault match that goes until last phase (credits are only tied to game length, not skill, not in any appreciable way). A trooper pack (where you get most skill cards) is 4000 credits That's 11 games to unlock one crate. A game is about 15 minutes.
Nearly 3 hours per crate.
Feels real bad man.
Thanks to review copies having radically cheaper hero unlock values myself and others were under the impression that heroes would be cheaper on release and were inflated for EA Access to slow progress. Now that we know that is not true and that those prices are there for launch, that's the line for me. It's absolutely ridiculous that Vader and Luke among others would take ~40 hours to even play as in a fucking STAR WARS game.
Is this a new Era rule? OTs cannot have discussion of unlock mechanics now?

No, I am still very hyped. Actually my hype is reaching critical state and I am thinking about getting that 90€ version just to play a few days earlier - lol. But yeah, not giving into those practises. Not worth it. 60€ and no money for lootboxes from me.Just curious, has the negative reaction or news concerning the progression / unlock or the predatory lootbox practices stopping you guys from getting this game?

Yeah, I was really excited and enjoyed the beta a lot but I just won't support the monetization practices, especially when the numbers for unlocking the content for free are broken down so starkly. I'd play it anyway and skip the "micro"transactions, but I draw the line at games that give greater gameplay advantages to payers than free players.Just curious, has the negative reaction or news concerning the progression / unlock or the predatory lootbox practices stopping you guys from getting this game?

Make sure to keep your friend list stocked too because if I am not mistaken it is x2 points if playing with friend.
At least that is what I saw on a stream yesterday.
Just curious why you would not play multiplayer if you will already have the game?I'm getting the deluxe version for $20. I'll be playing Single Player and the arcade modes. Depending on what EA/DICE says in their next statement I'll dive into Multiplayer or immediately sell off the game for a profit.

You can level without loot boxes. You can use heroes without unlocking all of them.
Just curious how would that be punishing them since you already own it?

Absolutely.Battlepoints are x2 if you stick/play with your squad.
Battlepoints don't unlock crates, just FYI. Credits do.
It's not actually with a friend but if you play with the group you spawned with which are marked yellow.Make sure to keep your friend list stocked too because if I am not mistaken it is x2 points if playing with friend.

Guys you need to understand leveling up your overall rank does NOTHING to progress your classes. Only star cards progress your class, and you must get to certain class levels to craft higher level cards.
