The loss in revenue caused by decreased pack and hypercrate sales would have to be made up in the direct purchase cost of that vented lightsaber. If people are buying 3 or 4 hypercrates to get that lightsaber, then BW would "lose" the revenue from 3 or 4 hypercrates.

I'm still having a hard time wrapping my mind around this. Do people really buy 3-4 hypercrates to get a specific item? That's spending around $120 for an item that doesn't even exist and might be replaced by a better item a month later, right? Do people really have that much money to blow on virtual reality? I must be the "poor cousin" of the SWTOR universe.

Sorry to hear that man. :( Perhaps you can find somebody willing to do a trade. There may be someone out there in the same boat as you, who was hoping for one of the sets that you got and got Revan instead.

the few people who replied simply laughed , told me off, or just wrote in caps till I simply stopped reading. I got caught up in the frenzy of the moment till I realized I bought 2 packs of cartel coins at 42$ each I woke up too late..yes my fault.

Why do Ferrari or Bentley need to "change"?

 

Why does BW need to "change"? Because some players feel entitled to have every new shiny LUXURY without having to do what is necessary to obtain that item legitimately? That is not a compelling reason, IMO.

 

Ferrari is owned by Fiat, Bentley is owned by Volkswagen, they had to change because they went bankrupt.

:( You have my sympathy.

 

Don't be too hard on yourself. RNG boxes are purposefully designed so that you won't think about how much you're spending.
