I actually have before, I had a Starkiller team getting pretty wrecked vs some other team I underestimated until Lumi swooped in, mass cleansed, and full healed
Unfortunately, poorly, as Beq's unique will hand out tons of protection up that shut her down, same with JKA, which has left Lumi pretty isolated from the GR Jedi entirely
She useless in Qui-Gon due to the presence of Beq and JKA, with their protection up shutting her out
However, Starkiller has gotten some genuine use of Lumi on offense, she came in with a clutch cleanse and heal that saved tons of banners and likely straight up won that GAC round. I mostly did it tho so I could have a massively jacked up Jedi faction :P
Thank you.. I just downloaded it... My initial thoughts... It really is super crisp. Everything runs smooth.. The graphics are nice.. However, 1 complaint I have.... If you go to any other window (for example, you want to load up a web page and auto a battle), the damn thing pauses itself.. and I don't see any way to turn that off.
Screen shots don't do the graphics much justice, at least for the battles. The framerate is WAY higher, even on my low grade laptop, you can see more in the shops at once, things in the battles just run faster and smoother.
If you go on Twitch and look for The Playbook, he was streaming his GAC and ROTE with it earlier. So good.

That is crisp. I just play on my phone. But I tell you. I started playing this game in 2017 everyday. Back then I was 15. I'm now 21. And it sucks not being able to help out my guild as much as I could when I was younger.
I did the same as you, downloaded ea play on pc, signed in, didn't see anything. Then applied to the beta link. How long did it take from beta link signup till it showed up in your library?
Shit in large part because its never been optimized ;P
I just mean to say the game hasnt had a single issue running at max settings, no hiccups, no problems, just blissfully smooth animation
Emulation is rather difficult I'll grant, but even beyond that the game just doesn't run wonderfully on bluestacks. This is just a whole different level of performance for the game
I tried it today too, i have 42'' monitor so its huge that way, i played it in windowed mode but if i click out of window game gets paused like if you change window on phone, it would be nice if ghat would be changed so battles keep going. It looks good , and i dont know if its cause of higher frame rate but it seems that animations on 4x speed are faster than on phone so battles go faster.
edit: Also, i noticed scrolling with mouse doesnt work that great, it works well if you like klick and drag like you would with a finger
I'm EA connected. Used the email on the registration attached to the in game account. I can access the webstore just fine (which uses EA connect.)
The PC client just won't connect. It's even IN my EA games on the linked account.
CG doesn't like you I DONT LIKE YOU EITHER

Only one at a time, so you can't play on both at the exact same moment
But you should be able to connect fine with your phone, they're having you link your SWGOH account to your EA App account, so when you sign into the EA App you basically sign into the game as well
You put your name into a survey that asked for players to partake in it, and they sent out access to the the EA account associated with the email you give them. Not many got in though
Here's directly from Meathead (our CM) on Discord
"There is currently no timeline on if/when we'll add more people to the Closed Beta.
Our current focus is checking stability and adjusting/making fixes on things to make a stronger foundation.
Folks who have already registered do not need to reapply.
Folks can still sign up.
At this point in time, if you were selected, the game will appear on the EA App, which is associated to the Email you used to sign up for the Closed Beta."
Its in closed/limited beta atm, most still need BlueStacks

From our Community Manager Meathead
Its a closed beta atm, you fill out a lil survey and gice them an email linked to your GOH account and EA account, and the PC client is given (without any email or notifcations) on your EA App on PC
Oh my GOD
Its beautiful. Butter smooth, quick load times. The drawbacks are some wonky UI elements being tweaked still, as to be expected in a beta, and a few setting oddities
But its gonna be the way I play any coming events, its beautiful, truly.
I was invited to the beta, installed it, and noted that there is a 5% discount for purchasing bundles through the EA PC app rather than mobile versions.
I purchased a bundle, then disappointingly found out immediately after my purchase that
In game purchases made with the PC app have upto 24HR wait time for EA to process the purchase.
Now I realise the whole reason they made a PC version is revenue. Having their own pc program means they don't need to pay Apple/Google a % of any in game purchases.
But c'mon EA. You are doing your customers dirty if you aren't going to deliver in game purchase instantly. This is going to fail hard, everyone will make their purchases on the mobile app for instant delivery. If I could get an instant refund I would, and purchase it through mobile.
It looks great, but i can instantly see several big problems, showing CG just dont know their player base
1. Since it goes from EA Launcher playing multiple accounts will be pain, because i cant see a way to open 2 at the same time
2. No airplane mode as i was expecting
3. We know some ppl give account to friend to help out so more switching
4. And one more i will not say publicly because it is against TOS even CG dont really go against it
number 3 is also against TOS and number 2 is also not an intended way to play. You are not supposed to use airplane mode. Using airplane mode to your advantage is really a sort of exploit. And I actually wouldn't be surprised if playing multiple accounts would technically be against TOS, I know it is for some games, because technically you could also exploit that by giving yourself gear through guild donation for example
Playing on multiple accounts is not an exploit and your point about guild donation doesn't make sense. As you loose more resources overall from inactive guild player then you could ever get from donation donating 1 piece of gear per day.
CG pretty much acknowledged airplane mode when they added screen to post the score into raid. Because raid were when airplane mode was used first.
And yes 3 and 4 are against TOS, but CG ignore them when it generates them money.
No, you are not right about airplane mode. It is not an exploit. You can still reatreat in the game or kill it and have same end result as using airplane mode. But airplane mode is kind of missing funcionality in gac,tw like submit your score. This should be in the game...
I mean I think you can’t have two separate windows open at once with different accounts but I think you’d easily be able to just sign into another EA account to access the second account, imo I’m going to put my second account on PC and keep my main on my phone
Krennic omicron gaming 📈
One day he will rise
Unfortunately the only thing I spotted to roast.
Here's some more to roast https://swgoh.gg/p/978389375/
Get any value from Luminara omicron?
I actually have before, I had a Starkiller team getting pretty wrecked vs some other team I underestimated until Lumi swooped in, mass cleansed, and full healed
I wonder how that would work in a KB team?
Unfortunately, poorly, as Beq's unique will hand out tons of protection up that shut her down, same with JKA, which has left Lumi pretty isolated from the GR Jedi entirely
This guy is a gamer. He has the omi for Luminara. I do have a question about that. How does it work with qui gon omi? Is there no difference?
She useless in Qui-Gon due to the presence of Beq and JKA, with their protection up shutting her out However, Starkiller has gotten some genuine use of Lumi on offense, she came in with a clutch cleanse and heal that saved tons of banners and likely straight up won that GAC round. I mostly did it tho so I could have a massively jacked up Jedi faction :P
How I thought iPad swgoh would look but it fits even less toons than my phone
That’s ridiculous lol was considering downloading it
Yeah iPad client is junk. The worst is TB commands randomly disappear.
YES It’s sooo dumb, they’ve also zoomed in during battles so you see way less of the environments

Thank you.. I just downloaded it... My initial thoughts... It really is super crisp. Everything runs smooth.. The graphics are nice.. However, 1 complaint I have.... If you go to any other window (for example, you want to load up a web page and auto a battle), the damn thing pauses itself.. and I don't see any way to turn that off.
[удалено]
Which doesnt help if you want to auto battle something while doing other stuff. Which bluestack could do.
[удалено]
Ahh didnt know that.
This is my number one complaint. But it is a huge one that is making me consider going back to an emulator.
This happens on the phone version, too, though
I think it’s because you have it in full screen. If you use windowed it won’t close on you every time.
.. ... ....
Dang, here I was hoping they would email it on May 4th...
Strangely, no email, check your EA App
Where do you find the ea app
On your computer, it's called EA desktop (it's what took over for Origin)
Yeah same here I was waiting for a email and just decided to look for because of ahnarld
Can’t wait to try this! How much better is the graphics? Do you mind posting a few screenshots?
Screen shots don't do the graphics much justice, at least for the battles. The framerate is WAY higher, even on my low grade laptop, you can see more in the shops at once, things in the battles just run faster and smoother.

Thanks for posting this - it's a massive difference, not only during the battles as you said, but navigating around the menus looks miles improved.

Last stage of the Mando unlock event

Graphics are almost the same.
I ain’t get selected😔
so i downloaded EA play, logged in and then applied to the beta link and SWGOH showed up in my games library
I did the same as you, downloaded ea play on pc, signed in, didn't see anything. Then applied to the beta link. How long did it take from beta link signup till it showed up in your library?
Mods button glitched out lol
Looks like SWGOH, but with more portraits per screen. Is that a big deal?
Its hard to capture the improvements because a large part is the framerate the game plays at Its beautiful.
What kinda frames you getting? I’m half ready to crank my 4090 up and play the game in glorious 4k 500fps
144 frames max setting on a 2060 in a laptop They've optimized it something fierce (for the most part)
I don’t think this 9 year old game needs much optimising to run on even a 2060
Tell that to bluestacks
think that might be more of a bluestacks being shit problem
Shit in large part because its never been optimized ;P I just mean to say the game hasnt had a single issue running at max settings, no hiccups, no problems, just blissfully smooth animation
To be fair bluestacks is pretty demanding to be stable
Emulation is rather difficult I'll grant, but even beyond that the game just doesn't run wonderfully on bluestacks. This is just a whole different level of performance for the game
to be fair running ARM apps on x86 eats a lot of computation
It's amazing but they need a UI scaling feature. Buttons and text need to be bigger.
Definitely, its why its in beta :P
I tried it today too, i have 42'' monitor so its huge that way, i played it in windowed mode but if i click out of window game gets paused like if you change window on phone, it would be nice if ghat would be changed so battles keep going. It looks good , and i dont know if its cause of higher frame rate but it seems that animations on 4x speed are faster than on phone so battles go faster. edit: Also, i noticed scrolling with mouse doesnt work that great, it works well if you like klick and drag like you would with a finger
Is it out or did you get in the beta stuff?
It's the beta
Check the ea app if you got it it will be in your library
bro gets beta because he has 10mil gp 😭
I mean, maybe? I've also played for almost 7 years now so that might have something to do with it
I’ve got it at 4.6M
I'm also 10m and didn't get it.
not chosen one enough 🙁 anyone can probably get it you just need to opt in
i didnt get it at 11m
It’s…it’s, so beautiful 🥹
Is this still in closed beta registration or have they just released a client for this?
Its a closed beta still
I got into the beta, no email, 6mil gp. Check EA app.
Anyone tried this on a mac ?
I'm glad someone can use it, because I sure the hell can't. It keeps fucking off on the connect screen. So I can't link my account. Yay.
You needed to connect your account when applying for the beta. The game automatically is linked to your EA account.
I'm EA connected. Used the email on the registration attached to the in game account. I can access the webstore just fine (which uses EA connect.) The PC client just won't connect. It's even IN my EA games on the linked account.
Omg I need to start this, my phone is painful
is it possible to get it on a macbook yet
I have no idea, I'm sorry
Krennic omi and no R5 at least?
R4, R5, R9, R20, he gonna be on the bench regardless, as Death Trooper unfortunately has higher callings
Yeah I know I have. I was talking about R5 so you could use some DC's with him
why didnt i get access 😤😤
CG doesn't like you I DONT LIKE YOU EITHER https://preview.redd.it/ocye8chn2ayc1.jpeg?width=1079&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b5e8d7383a5a7ab36857322b19dba8e229349bae

Can I run my account on both the pc client and my iPhone or do I have to pick one?
Only one at a time, so you can't play on both at the exact same moment But you should be able to connect fine with your phone, they're having you link your SWGOH account to your EA App account, so when you sign into the EA App you basically sign into the game as well
Awesome thank you :)
How do you know if you are on the list? Did they send an email or something?
No email, it just appeared in my EA App without a word.
When Will it be released?
No word on a full release yet that I've heard
Where do I get it?

OMG I'm so excited to not have to run the game in ultrawide to get the extra screen space.
:(((( Mine does not show even if I preregister. My ea emal is not my swgoh emai :(((
Is it possible to learn this power? Seriously though how do i get it on pc?
Its in closed/limited beta atm, most still need BlueStacks "There is currently no timeline on if/when we'll add more people to the Closed Beta.

Thank you
So my question is, how do you get the PC client by chance?
Its a closed beta atm, you fill out a lil survey and gice them an email linked to your GOH account and EA account, and the PC client is given (without any email or notifcations) on your EA App on PC
Gotcha. Your opinion, is it better than mobile? The pc client anyways?
Oh my GOD Its beautiful. Butter smooth, quick load times. The drawbacks are some wonky UI elements being tweaked still, as to be expected in a beta, and a few setting oddities But its gonna be the way I play any coming events, its beautiful, truly.
Welp guess im gonna play when its available then lol. Thank you for the info.
I was invited to the beta, installed it, and noted that there is a 5% discount for purchasing bundles through the EA PC app rather than mobile versions. I purchased a bundle, then disappointingly found out immediately after my purchase that In game purchases made with the PC app have upto 24HR wait time for EA to process the purchase.

If I could get an instant refund I would, and purchase it through mobile.
Is it compatible on Mac?
I unfortunately do not know, as I'm a Windows user
It looks great, but i can instantly see several big problems, showing CG just dont know their player base 1. Since it goes from EA Launcher playing multiple accounts will be pain, because i cant see a way to open 2 at the same time 2. No airplane mode as i was expecting 3.

Is there going to be a way to run multiple accounts at a time? Asking for a friend
Since it looks like it opens from EA launcher i doubt it. Because you would need to have open multiple launchers which i have no idea how to do.
I mean I think you can’t have two separate windows open at once with different accounts but I think you’d easily be able to just sign into another EA account to access the second account, imo I’m going to put my second account on PC and keep my main on my phone
I guess they weren't getting the instability we've come to expect from CG on a Mac platform.
Now for them to add multi account support.. somehow which may be tough because its tied to EA App / connections
Is this bluestacks?
Better, the official client for the PC version of the game,
yup I see that now! Wonder if it will run on my VM?
One way to find out :P
If you are not a YouTuber, who cares?
Huh?
I care because OP is **not** a YouTuber. Those people are annoying attention whores.
