Major update in SWGOH

Well, we’ve gone to three-ship combat in SWGOH, instead of five-ship. If you play the game, you’ll get what a major difference it is. If you don’t, well…

SWGOH is Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes. It’s a game where the player collects various heroes from the Star Wars universe (and also their ships) and engages in turn-based but pseudo real time battles with them. The player and his computer opponent each start (in the normal version) with five heroes, and each hero plays in turn until one side has lost all their heroes.

Ship battles used to be like that too, but now the ship battles have been shortened down to three ships to start with, instead of five.

So far, it feels like I just die all the time. Before, I could be somewhat competitive in ships. I attained the number one rank in my PVP server once, and could hold top 50 when I wanted to put the effort into it. Now, it feels like I can’t do anything but lose.

On the other hand, the new update did give me a huge amount of character shards, so I guess I’ll be rolling in gear for a while.
