Christie_Swift Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Really? I guess they don't care about feedback? I don't mind stories or strongholds since some people might want that but a better option could have been... giving players a choice and not just limiting to space barbie rewards. Respectfully this will be another HARD pass GS for me! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention, I missed the last mount of GS 2 (Underworld) and I regretted it a lot, I should have dedicated myself a little more to achieve it.

Traceguy Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 GS5 didn't have a companion, and I had as much motivation to complete it as every single other GS. Also, I think Amity and PH4-LNX were trash companions. Did they really provide motivation? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrixxieTriss Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Honestly, how many companions do you actually need? 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did they really provide motivation? yeah, PH4-LNX was a cool concept but sorely lacking in execution maybe if she'd been introduced in proper content, we could have explored her history with Czerka and the implication that she's a heavily modified GEMINI and possibly the last one in existence, but their format for seasons missions seems to be locked at 3 very short missions 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A gambling GEMINI droid? How cool is that?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest of the rewards will be presented in a dedicated GS6 article that's gonna be available quite soon I imagine. They have mentioned that in the stream. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christie_Swift Posted February 15 Author Share Posted February 15 At least would have been nice to have a cool dye set as reward or take the feedback from the community on other main reward options. I don't think stories did go well last GS and this one still remains to be seen . What do Strongholds and Descos have to do with real Star Wars? I know it's cool to have them but should be optional rather than the main reward for grinding GS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One could also say, how many strongholds do we need or how many speeders do we need or even how many sets of re-skinned armor and weapons do we need.

Personally I like having companions that have 0 to do with the normal storyline. Companions from Sub rewards, and Galactic Seasons make great companions for crafting that can't be taken away. Those are the only ones I ever rank up. Edited February 15 by Toraak 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LanceDefender Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 I prefer companions ye, but SH is good exchange ngl. But again, they can't give us new SH every new season, so I wonder what will be in next season. Because if another SH then people will start (at least I assume so) to be bored and annoyed with that too, but maybe I'm wrong on that? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The biggest mistake Bioware made with companions was taking them away especially if you spent time, credits, or Cartel Coins to get them to 50. I only level up my promotional and galactic season companions. I don't bother with story related companions, haven't since the first time they took them away for story purposes and "maybe they will return, maybe they wont" bull. I'm disappointed there isn't a companion in Galactic Season six. Not for myself but for newer players who only have access to the story companions.

I gave up caring about companions on Oct 20, 2015 when learned that my original companions were being taken away from me after my first playthrough of KotFE chapter 1. Since then, I see companions as tools that I can use when questing or crafting, and I have more of those than I need already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I only use strongholds for conquest bonus so if they want to give us more strongholds, they should increase the bonus. It would also mitigate 7.0 changes that doubled required points for personal goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
