Here is the latest “Road Ahead” write up, from the developers of Star Wars: Galaxy of heroes, over at Capital games. November has a few big items to go over, so let’s dive in. 424a2d
5th Anniversary
2020 has flown by (or crawled in some instances) and we find ourselves once again in November, which is a Galaxy of Heroes for many years to come.
Shard Economy Changes
If you haven’t seen our post yet about our Shard Economy changes, you can read about them improve the game and inform what other changes we can make in the future.
Challenge Tier Raids
It is with great pleasure that we introduce to you… the Challenge Tier Rancor! Yes, our coming soon.
The Mandalorian Season 2
Mandalorian Season 2 is upon us and we are just as excited as all of you! We’ve kicked off the new season by awesome combinations and squads the community can build with them.
Up next, we continue our season of The Mandalorian content with one of the most requested characters from Season 1 of the show, Marquee event and we will have more to share in the coming weeks.
And we’ve still got a few ingots of Beskar saved for some surprises and there may be a few more friends coming from the Mandalorian yet. Stay tuned to see who else shows up to the holotable.
The Future of Galactic Challenges
In August we released a new Event reward mechanic.
To save you time and effort, we’re introducing Autocomplete. This means that successfully completing combat missions and feats at a higher tier of difficulty will now give you credit for any lower tier. For instance, completing tier 5 at 2 star will give you full credit for tiers 1-4 in addition to the stars earned from tier 5. Similarly, completing a feat at tier 5 will give you credit for the same Feat at the earlier levels. Note: we’re moving mission completion into discrete Feats in order to tie into the new End of Event reward system.
With the introduction of the new End of Event rewards, you will now earn a new type of currency from completing combat missions and their associated feats. As you accumulate this currency, you will earn a progressively better chest of rewards which will open at the end of the event.
With the instant payout of rewards, players who complete Challenges up to the higher tiers of difficulty earn all the rewards – even those which may not be applicable to where they are in the game – from the earlier tiers. By making the switch to End of Event rewards, we will be able to improve and differentiate the rewards offered as you progress from one chest to the next.
Lastly, we’re eyeing a major expansion of the Galactic Challenges system sometime in Road Ahead.
