Once a great game. Now only mediocre...

I have finally been able to log back in to the game. After multiple calls with Apple Care I found out I needed to back up my phone and then restore it. Purchasing more storage space in the process. All because Kabam doesnt allow the game to bypass GameCenter if it cant connect.

Regardless, all is well now. However, the game has changed drastically in the month I have been absent. Most of my friends have left. People whove played the game daily for months. Kabam has needed so many aspects of this game it is only a shadow of its former self. It is unthinkable why they would do this.. The game was great once! Sure it needed a few tweaks here and there, but it was fun to play! My only issue with the game prior to all this finagling was the contests... They were basically impossible to rank in anything unless you played the game 24 hours a day. Literally. And had the highest level character.

They keep changing the rules to the game I cant even keep up with it! I am a cartel master, and every time I tell my cartel about a rule change, they change it again which wouldnt even be so bad if they at least notified us - IN GAME - instead of on the forums.. Which their website isnt even mobile friendly.... (??) But they also change the contest rules in the MIDDLE of an event!!!

I have spent so much of my time on this game (too much to be honest) and I am disappointed that now I must spend even MORE time doing "busy work" because they have drastically reduced the amount of electrum/event crystals one gets. Which is what you need to be able to beat the game and get a light saber.

This game once had my total devotion and I gave it 5 Stars. I have thought about quitting and dissolving my cartel. Now, I still play but with only a fraction of my heart into the game.

Its too bad really... The friendships made and maintained through this game was awesome.. Now everyone has left. I just want to finish the game already so I can leave, but theyre making it hard to do that.

Please just add more fun stuff to the game instead of manipulating the rewards for the content already there!!
Please Kabam!! 3 stars now...

Have updated my phone to the new iOS 9.3 hoping it would fix some of the issues I have been having with this game. NOPE!! IT MADE IT WORSE!!

Theres a bug in iOS 9.2 and 9.3 that prevents users from connecting to GameCenter. This wouldnt be an issues for me if I could just disconnect from GameCenter since I have a Kabam profile that saves my game data. But it wont let me open up GameCenter via the app or through Settings

Please update this game, so that if GameCenter wont connect it just bypasses it altogether. Obviously Apple isnt doing anything about this problem, as it has been an issues for over a year.

iOS 9.2 affected some people all or some of the time. iOS 9.3 affects every user. You will lose many gamers this way.

Please help us be able to play the game and do what Apple refuses to do for some reason. Make Star Wars Uprising able to bypass GameCenter if it doesnt connect.

Despite the bugs in this game it is still my favorite game and I (used to) play every day and am a cartel master for one of the top cartels - and I cant even play now.

Kabam.. Please help us!!

Havent been able to log in for almost a week. I have been a daily player for 4 months. A cartel leader who did all of my daily missions and now I cannot even log in?! Ive updated the app - AGAIN, I updated iOS again, done a hard reset on my phone, tried to mess around with settings.. I am unable to log in because my iPhone 6S is unable to connect to GameCenter and I am unable to change the settings on my device so that it will skip connecting to GameCenter bc it keeps freezing when I click on it in Settings. Completely disappointed!!

Abilities a nerfed, how is t1 crew supposed to be upgraded if I cannot acquire t1 crystals anymore? I expected that my t1 & t2 crystals would now be able to be used on anything. However, now I am just stuck with a half-full inventory of obsolete crystals, and fear and crew that can no longer be upgraded.

The controls!! I thought this matter was supposed to be made better?! It wasnt even that bad to begin with. Perhaps maybe a minor tweak was all it needed. Now, the controls are frustrating as my my toon does not listen, she is laggy, I feel like I have exaggerate my touches for her to respond to them, and even then sometimes she still wont.

Incessant crashing/freezing/lagging/load times: this is the big one here: I have an iPhone 6s. I have never really had an issue with this except perhaps maybe the occasional time between loading screen perhaps when I was on 3G or the server was busy. A crash every now & then. Wasnt a big deal however I had heard from other users on different devices were having more problems -- After the update, my game crashed about 30 times, froze about 20, had a 20 second load time between every button click (in the uprising HUB, not even in missions) and terrible lag ones!! It took 2 hours to finish my 5 assault missions on my main toon. Forget about my 2nd toon. I hard-reset the phone, restarted the app & none of this worked.

The crystal merchant and the crystal salvage I havent even had the chance to use because Ive been so busy re-loading the game after every crash & freeze, & dont want to wait for loading.

Please release a new update replacing this joke of an update ASAP or I fear you will not only lose me as a player but a LOT of players.

You turned a great game that could have used a few minor tweaks into terrible frustrating game I would never give a second chance to had I been a first time player with this version of STU.
