Basically this. Slots were all the rage last week and it lasted that one week. Now nobody cares about the slots after they've been nerfed to near death. If it was working 100% as planned, why "fix" it? Like everyone else, I figured that the items needed a different drop rate. I ended up getting way more purple than green scraps. That's what I think was the worst part that needed to be fixed: make it slightly more difficult to obtain purple materials. Now it's a pain to just get one or two green scraps, nevermind any purples, and it's easier to get the walker from Yavin than the one in the slots. What's the point of it now? It's just a decoration that eats your credits. Nobody's coming over to play anymore. You're not fooling anyone.
One piece of green scrap isn't worth 75k credits.
