    There's a new Retail level: "Imperial Marches", if I translate it correctly. But it cannot be built directly... Another Special Event??

    Just had a new Bitizens whose dream job was Imperial Marches, promptly evicted as I'm a ways off worry about that yet.

    No crash yet for the new version though I did have to quit the game when I went to the Facebook section. Touched connect, went to the new screen with an Invite button and a red X. However neither of them worked. Game just sat there.

    Guys i can't play anymore after the update. I read most of you are playing, so what could I do to make the game run again? I'm using it on my iPad Retina

    I tried the updated game on my iPhone 5 and it works. Could be an iPad issue only?

    New Imperial Assignment Levels are a TFWOT!!!

    I like change. Really I do. But this update is total garbage.

    The new "Assignment Level" absolutely blows. It is completely not worth doing any of the assignments. For example, my Assignment 2 is building 20 control panels and 27 repair droids, for a reward of 100,000 coins. To build those items, I would need to spend 20 x 1585 + 27 x 2320 = 94,340 coins.

    SO, in 36 hours I will have made 5,660 coins. What a total f*@%ing waste of time.

    Similarly, my Assignment 1 is 31 Comlinks, 33 System Scans, and 8 Imperial Gunners. The reward is 81,102 coins. Want to guess what the cost to build those 72 items is???

    31x1875 + 33 x 1000 + 8 x 2925 = 114,525 coins. I actually would LOSE 33,423 coins completing this assignment!!!

    AND you can't use supply officers to begin construction of an item; they can only hurry up the item. You HAVE to spend that money to make the items.

    The Empire levels are a total rip-off. I will not even scroll down there any more. Why is this crap being pushed on us, the users that are actually sticking with the app?

    How about an update that improves the 60sec+ start-up times???

    I hadn't done the calculations yet but I agree that the new Assignments level is not a good improvement. One of the few times I'm disappointed by having automatic updates on.

    Too expensive build the stuff and now also too time consuming. Thankfully I had a ton of stock and finished two assignments before I did the update. I think I won't be using the imperial levels anymore either to get lots of money.

    A current assignment: reward 79302

    Commlinks 19x1875=35625
    Repair Droid 29x2320=67280

    Total: 102905

    So yay I lose nearly 24k

    I'm getting a notice that I have two different games saved on startup, after the new update. One being on the device and the other being online. But after I choose one, it still asks me at startup.

    Also, the Facebook connect is not working.

    Anybody else having these issues?

    I'm still using the 'local' choice, I don't want to progress online and then lose it all. Call me paranoid but the stability of this game doesn't fill me with confidence!

    Also I don't use the Facebook integration because I don't want to inflict my gaming habits onto my friends.


    Adding my voice to the chior of discontent regarding the Imperial levels, I fail to see how this got approaved. Its sapping my motivation to play.

    Time to find another favourite waste of time perhaps.

    Great. Now it's not starting anymore on my iPhone 5. It crashes back to Springboard from the loading screen. Guess they'll push an update soon.

    The new assignments suck, a total waste of time. The quantities have become so large and the the reward isn't even enough to break even.

    Just collected the first 100 medals for the current special event and I have no idea what the reward was. Something about a clothing store but I can't find it anywhere.

    It's like some people at Disney sat around eating sushi or Thai and came up with a bunch of random ideas on how to make more money from the game in the subtlest ways possible. And then they were implemented poorly and ta-da! Update. Feels even sleezier having it on my phone. I wish they were actual fans of Star Wars and cared about pleasing their audience.

    Yep, same here. Got the reward, which said 'press continue to go to costume store' but nothing happened when I did.. Or at least nothing I could find either.

    On the new assignments btw, I don't think they are meant to earn you money, just another place to spend it. I've already got 82 levels, so there's no point in making more money, but getting the new level is only possible by building stuff on the imperial levels I think. Still, I have to agree its not a problem if your Death Star is (almost) complete, but when starting from scratch this is not something you want. So indeed a poor choice by the dev..

    I've tried both local and online saved games, and I haven't seen a difference. Luckily, I haven't lost my progress.

    Also, I noticed there are three new characters (droids?) listed under the Limited Edition section on the Bitizen tab. I'm guessing they're rewards from the new Imperial challenge.

    And... I still can't access the Levels or Scenes tab in the Album. Oh well.
