A hotfix for Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes is currently being released, with the Apple version deploying 'very slowly' to users. The Android fix is also out and has been confirmed by multiple players to resolve their issues, according to MeatheadMilitia.

MeatheadMilitia believes the current Trove Packs are a 'steal' for 1000 crystals, particularly if they grant a new character at 7 stars. He expressed excitement about players acquiring full characters they didn't previously own, rather than just shard shop currency.

Apple pushed an iOS update overnight that appears to have resolved the game crashing issue for some players. However, an audio issue remains. Android users are expected to receive an audio fix later today, while iOS users will have to wait until later in the week for a new build.

MeatheadMilitia confirms that an internal workaround for game loading issues, which involved reinstalling the game, did not work for an iOS 16 user. While it had shown success in internal testing, this external report indicates the problem persists for some players even after reinstallation. The team is actively investigating solutions.

Apple iOS users are encountering significant problems accessing Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes and making purchases following a recent update. MeatheadMilitia confirmed a known issue between Apple's iOS and the new game update, preventing access. The temporary workaround involves uninstalling and reinstalling the game.

MeatheadMilitia mentioned he was attending meetings focused on "things not in game yet." When asked if he could reveal details about upcoming Ahsoka requirements, he stated he could not, reinforcing his role in discussions for future content.

MeatheadMilitia, a developer for SWGOH, confirmed he is involved in the character development process "from paper to release." He stated there's "no set time" for how long this process can take, refuting speculation about specific timelines like months or a year.

The creator, MeatheadMilitia, stated he is in a "Coast" period and has not committed to farming Galactic Legend Ahsoka Tano. His decision depends on what her kit entails. He mentioned not having picked his next farming road, indicating a paused progression state.

A new hint for the ongoing community puzzle was provided: "What does the earth do?" This instruction was given shortly before the content creator left to stream, suggesting it is a crucial piece of information for solving the riddle that players have been working on.

A hotfix for the Conquest Disc issue is expected to be released very soon. The creator, who is an official developer, confirmed it would be deployed in the very near future. The timing was noted as 2 PM, implying a quick rollout.

MeatheadMilitia recommends prioritizing 50-crystal energy refreshes when hard farming nodes. He also advises new players, especially free-to-play, to exercise patience, manage expectations, focus on small progression wins, and seek advice from experienced players and F2P guides.

MeatheadMilitia acknowledged a player's report that the General Leia Organa (GL Ahsoka Tano) Hub is not being updated promptly. The player noted that the second set of information, known for several days, has not yet been added to the hub.

MeatheadMilitia provided the precise end time for a community event, stating it concludes at 5 PM PT. He also cautioned that a slight data delay might occur, so the team will monitor the event's status past the official end time.

MeatheadMilitia indicated that new kit reveal infographics are in the works and that he is personally contributing to them. He also noted that he has no current information on when the gifting store will be available on the PC client but is relaying the question to the relevant team.

MeatheadMilitia confirmed that players do not need to individually contribute a specific number of troopers to receive rewards from the community event. The rewards are granted to all participants once the collective community goal is met, regardless of personal farming effort.
