SWGOH news from Discord

MeatheadMilitia said he has it on good authority that the upcoming Conquest Pass will be available on the Webstore again, and is trying to get formal confirmation. He also acknowledged the unresolved bug where Webstore purchases have not been awarding coaxium.

The developer stated that recent game adjustments are a significant change for the team, requiring close monitoring. They emphasized the importance of clear, constructive player feedback to help them advocate for the community internally.

A bug prevented Squad Arena currency from appearing in daily rewards, though it was present in make-good packages. The developer confirmed this is a bug and stated the currency will be reintroduced to daily rewards.

Multiple players reported that crystal purchases on the webstore did not deliver coaxium. CG_Meathead asked each affected player to DM their ally code so the team can investigate. The issue spans at least three separate reports across the day.

CG_Meathead actively collected player feedback on the new Episode system. Players want daily quests visible at the start of the week, paid feats hidden until purchased, and a Crystal-purchase option for the Episode pass. Meathead said he is documenting these for the team.

CG_Meathead confirmed that the removal of squad currency from the daily chest was unintentional. It is being treated as a bug and will be added back in a near future update.

The new Kessel Run loyalty program is experiencing various technical issues affecting players' ability to earn and claim rewards. Common problems include purchases not yielding Coaxium, daily logins not being registered, and some rewards not appearing in-game. The development team is actively investigating these bugs.

Players can complete Episode Quests at any point during an Episode. Missed days do not prevent quest completion, as all quests remain available. This design allows players to catch up without penalty, ensuring continuous participation and progress towards Chapter rewards.

The content creator is looking into a community report that the 200 daily Squad Arena tokens, previously available from daily activities, are no longer appearing. This suggests a potential change or bug in the game's daily rewards system, and the creator plans to investigate further.

The content creator has forwarded community feedback regarding the visibility of quests and feats in the new system. Players desire to see upcoming quests and feats in advance, even if locked, to allow for better planning. This would help players prepare for tasks like mod updates without relying on datamines.

The content creator suggested that the Episode Pass, even at $30, offers better long-term value than purchasing three packs of marquee boosters, assuming players are already buying boosters. He implied that the free track is sufficient for those who do not regularly purchase boosters.

The content creator confirmed there is no specific release date for simmable events, which are still 1-2 months away. He also stated that issues with the loyalty store not launching with the Huyang character were not intentional, attributing them to technology challenges.

The content creator clarified that the Episode Pass+ skips 10 tiers and grants 20 rewards, consisting of 10 free track rewards and 10 paid track rewards. He also confirmed that the Episode Pass is not available on the webstore.

A player paraphrased that CG would be giving out a make-good "tomorrow." MeatheadMilitia pushed back lightly, saying he definitely did not say it was coming tomorrow and joked that he would go re-check the text. Compensation is implied but the date was not promised.

Reacting to praise of the new Rey kit visuals, MeatheadMilitia teased that players should wait until they hear the sound design on Special 1, and pushed back on a player who claimed to play without sound. Implies the new kit has notable audio work tied to the marquee ability.

A player updated via Google Play, was logged out, logged back in and was given a brand new account. MeatheadMilitia replied that the workaround is to force close the app, and confirmed it has happened to him too.

Asked whether to hoard energy until double drops, MeatheadMilitia answered with a one-word "always." Standard hoarding advice from CG's community side, but worth noting as on-the-record confirmation rather than community lore.

PC players reported the EA App update loop, where the client downloads the update, completes, then prompts for the same update again. MeatheadMilitia confirmed the team was working on it in a call, and posted a workaround telling PC users to fully close out the EA App and reopen it to get into the game.

A player flagged that anyone who finished some of their dailies before the update cannot complete the new daily quests, and there is a false notification driving players to the home screen with nothing to action there. MeatheadMilitia said he passed the report along to the team while he was on a call.

MeatheadMilitia tells players to check the iOS or Android app store for the new SWGOH client update. If the update is not visible right away, it will populate over time as the stores propagate it. One iOS player confirmed they had to tap the SWGOH listing in the App Store before the update option appeared.
