[high aurora]

4th year anniversary is broken. Seems accurate..lol. Seriously though, nice rewards

[vagrant topaz]

lvl16 here @wanton copper @icy cairn The answer to the final question is in a system that I can’t reach. Requires warp 25. How is this a lvl10+ event???

[whole granite]

Now they say: Surpriseee!!! The reward is the same as the game, BROKEN!!!!

[junior junco]

Anyone elses Celebration Meta SMS disappeared? Was there earlier, logged back in to start doing them and the meta event is gone

[green wedge]

had to restart the game etch time to get 3, 4 and 5 after finished the one before and yes the meta is gone now

[sterile valley]

Mine is gone as well

[earnest harness]

#⭐-official-announcements message

[green wedge]

think i need glases... ty

[granite nymph]

Ok so the meta event going away is intended? Ah but what about the isolinear rods. I have 2 and will get 6 more if I complete the event but gave nothing to spend them on. Is that normal ??

[somber hinge]

thx @icy cairn to lift the limits. 👍

[errant belfry]

great chance to unlock an officer... would be really nice if rare Bones would have been included for the under 20 crowd

[brisk ivy]

Hey there! Im playing on a new server, and 95% of players all below lvl20. It's was announced that we are given anniversary gift, just have to anwser trivia questions, with some ingame action. We are stuck at 5th step, since players on this server cannot reach warp 25 yet, we just started a week ago... anniversary gift was told to be for 10+ lvl players, but we cannot make it. There are 4 days left to complete the trivia, but i don't think that's enough time to get to that level. Is this gift not for us then? 😦

[frail skiff]

I got ripped off the other day when Battle Points required us to assist our alliance by doing things for it. I completed the event but didn't get any prize. Because of that I missed out on a prize that had 82M parsteel plus other items. You owe me that prize.

[earnest harness]

this has been updated to allow players a second system with lower warp.

[brisk ivy]

Ohh, thank you! Reloading game asap! 🎉😁

[lethal barn]

So did they stop doing the merge events/gifts? I see the event store but no way to get the currency.
No chest with territory items as promised either.
Is this because it's our second merge?

[gentle hearth]

Hmmm.... "Great" trivia event. To low of level to reach target city. Need a ship with better warp range

[white bramble]

Go to ||Nelve|| for #5 a second system was added

[pallid sand]

A second system with lower warp range was added. Did you finished the event now?

[vagrant topaz]

Haven’t tried yet. Watching the USA v Iran game rn

[vast stirrup]

@icy cairn @wanton copper Best Anniversary gift ever. Thank you

[novel totem]

Thanks Scopely for the very generous Anniversary gift! I understand, that the 3 gifts leading up to today's event were meant as a small reminder on what got released over the years. To not make them see so pointless I suggest to give players a heads up with its intent next time.

[icy cairn]

https://tenor.com/view/sending-love-gif-25755600

[mortal dove]

Where should I use my last isolinear rods? „Use them today“ yeah. Okay. How 🙈

[turbid bluff]

@wanton copper Server 85 the event is not scoring (trivia question 1). So your gift is useless

[white bramble]

You can’t use them. They were to be spent the same time as they were gained

[boreal dune]

How is the anniversary event for OPs 10+ when you need to be able to travel to a warp 25 system?

[bleak eagle]

they included a workaround after realizing their error

[white bramble]

There is a second system added ||nelve||

[misty pollen]

Sweet anniversary reward guys!! 🥳
Big thanks…but who do I choose!?! 😁
<@&509691205798592532>

[white bramble]

Pick someone you haven’t unlocked and someone with horrible sourcing

[vagrant topaz]

Personally, Jaylah was the easy choice. Pop to #🏆-event-chat if you want to go through what you have and what you think.

[boreal dune]

@bleak eagle @white bramble Thankyou both, i'll let my member know 👍

[heavy cobalt]

Anniversary event rewards are a bit farcical (for me), out of the 37 officers on offer there’s only one (1) that I’ve not already unlocked 🤦🏻‍♂️😤

[formal musk]

Please give an opportunity to spend isolinear rods! I had some unspent in september, back when you could spend more in a day than you actually got from events. Ive been spending at every opportunity since then, but have not been able to empty my supply!

[trim gazelle]

@wanton copper According to the official communications, S82/S83 was supposed to have a post-merger server milestone event. This has not started yet, could you please address @icy cairn

[icy cairn]

I'll check in on this 🪴

[half flare]

Thank you for the anniversary trivia event! Your gifts are garbage, Scopely, but we love your event rewards lol.

[mortal dove]

this is kinda a late information 🤔

[wanton copper]

Just followed up on this and the event will start tomorrow!

[soft agate]

In game announcements need to be better used to relay that day 1….. Discord and Content Creator information only gets so far

[buoyant ember]

A Cardassian Officer would have been nice in the Anniversary Award

[split crown]

Sorry but I’m having a brain fart here…has anyone posted the answers for this event?

[valid knoll]

#1042855078761091072

[fiery sorrel]

Just want to say thanks for true year 4 reward best event yet

[latent merlin]

Random question. What are we to do with the additional 5k in anniversary tokens that’s some of us received today? Or all the rods that we have?

[sharp estuary]

a buddy of mine just made the quests for the officers... sadly he said he can only see blue officers and don't get purple ones... a bit unfair given it's an annual thing and they are like "2nd class" players because they don't have a higher level yet... from what level on you get a purple one?

[frigid meadow]

Where are my missions, Scopely?

[sharp estuary]

usually relog works... or waiting... servers aren't the best...

[frigid meadow]

https://tenor.com/view/star-wars-anakin-i-want-more-and-i-know-i-shouldnt-anakin-skywalker-gif-23940512

[round flare]

20+

[white bramble]

Ops 20. If he ops’ up soon he can see the epics

[astral galleon]

Anyone else find the explorer strike team crew (Weyoun Crew) severely lacking?

[white bramble]

It’s definitely a bit inferior to the other 2 but it’s still a great set of officers

[astral galleon]

Yeah it's even countered by two existing officers plus weyoun, so ... yeah @wanton copper Please have the team look at bringing some balance or better capability to the explorer strike team crew.

[granite nymph]

If you ever run an event like this again please consider adding a selection confirmation button. In looking through the choices I miss selected an officer I did not need or want. It made what was a generous offer turn into ashes for me. Karma I guess @wanton copper

[sharp estuary]

so sadly players below lvl 20 are 2nd class players... not worth the good stuff which they get only once a year unless they pay to be lvl 20 within those 5 days.... I understand that for normal events... but not the annual birthday one...

[mortal dove]

Where kira Miles Meta scoring?

[silk bobcat]

Will we be able to spend the Isolinear Data Chips in future event stores?

[queen kindle]

Chips will be useable in December.

[steep prism]

The full unlock of the officer was the best thing yall have given in a long time, thank yall for the thoughtful gift.

[digital forge]

Same 😦 It was my bad, but it still stings lol

[granite nymph]

Tired fat fingers in my case. And a bit of neuropathy.

[teal lake]

I have both of those!

[finite kraken]

A single question only - at 100% - what percentage would Scopely claim to weight fairness?

[pallid sand]

No idea what you mean

[hardy knoll]

Try contacting CS and see if they will swap them for what you really wanted. Sometimes they are helpful like that.

[digital forge]

Tried that and got denied.. Maybe @wanton copper could override that call?

[hallow acorn]

Would it be possible to have 24 hour notice on these syndicate events so we can plan accordingly.

[vernal crag]

Did the math on my syndicate 99.99 x 2 + 49.99 x 1 = complete - no thanks

[hollow vector]

I do not think the bonus refinery was updated along with the recent G4 loot tables upgrades. 4 chests of G4 bonus refinery is on average the same unc/rare/epic as I receive with 3 G4 chests from the regular refinery.

[wanton summit]

The bonus refinery uses the old loot tables by design.

[merry raft]

Is there any chance you can run some non-heroic syndicate events. It's impossible for me to score in the big events and they seem to be the only source of Beverly and Picard shards anymore.

[opal kiln]

Why is this an event being run when there are so many stuck eclipse hostiles? Come on guys, the Cerritos buff only last so long

[shell kettle]

Yea, I gave up on elite eclipse event quicky. Unless you're on a dead server, it's just simply not worth wasting your time or cerritos credits on. I swear the people at Scopley who implement this stuff don't even play the game... and if they do, they should be fired

[vapid meteor]

How many “don’t be poor”, credit card warrior, syndicate events do we need exactly?

The frequency and number of these paid only events is getting ridiculous

[coarse sentinel]

Lack luster event Scopely

[uncut cloud]

<@&509691205798592532> Wasn't the Military Supremacy event supposed to run another day? When it started on Moday, it was a four-day. Now it's ending a day early. Did something change?

[pallid token]

@icy cairn @wanton copper The stuck hostile bug has practically decimated the spawn rate for hostiles in Penumbra and Lindstrom. Can we please stop having events that are impossible to complete until $copely fixes the stuck hostiles?

[small narwhal]

Milsup has always been a three day event coinciding with crucible of war

[half flare]

We’re still mad about the treasury notification. Meme event was in poor taste and too soon to be well-received (by me at least). From a marketing perspective I understand trying to turn a (MASSIVE) negative into a positive.

[visual anchor]

An heroic event should be one that requires heroic effort within the game. An event that cannot be won at any level without employing a credit card does not meet anyone’s definition of “heroic”. Maybe we can start calling them what they really are? How about “Cash for prizes event”.

[hollow vector]

That’s a crummy design imo

[dim hare]

How about increasing the spawn rate of hostiles if your going to make everyone kill 500 in three days

500 level thirty-six's and can't find anything under a 38 to consistently kill BS

[dim hare]

Guess I should have scrolled up first. I would have seen this was addressed by the players many times over..... To bad SCOPLEY cant afford discord accounts to be able to read player input / suggestions / comments / complaints...

[halcyon egret]

I still never understand your reasoning behind making a 2 day SMS event that cost 62700 syndicate experience to complete, which equates to roughly $250 worth of exp, or say $200 for 2 packs and getting the rest of the XP yourself. for like 100 epic shards of a bad hero.....

[viscid phoenix]

The reasoning is they make money from it

[stone quarry]

When is the ever so lagging Apex event being fixed? The Lag is pathetic everytime this event comes up.

[raven drift]

Power based leaderboard, please. Too many materials based in a row. Please balance.

[ripe furnace]

Excellent 4 year gift!

[high aurora]

Can someone confirm that there is not going to be an Apex Armada SMS tomorrow? The Apex Outlaw event itself has a 3 day timer and so does the Elite Outlaw SLB. I don't want folks to spend all their directives today if there is a Stella Armada SMS tomorrow @wanton copper @icy cairn

[cunning stirrup]

Please stop doing exchange events until you fix hostiles in those systems 😭

[oblique lagoon]

Any chance of uping the spawn rate in Exchange space? 3-4 hostiles a system is not enough when you have an entire server hunting them for events.

[raven drift]

Power based leaderboard, please. Too many materials based in a row. Please balance.

[charred hill]

Kudos to overlapping BP event with Apex event today. This is the kind of thing that players appreciate and $copely needs to do more often.

[small narwhal]

There should be, it’s usually armada sms on third day?

[high aurora]

the last 2 times it's been a 2 day event

[small narwhal]

Yeah I remember that, during the two day version I think they overlapped the hostile event today with the armada sms. But looks like normal three day apex this time?

[high aurora]

Last 2 times they didn't really have an SMS on day 3, so yeah, they overlapped the 2 (armada and hostile sms). It is listing Faction Hunt starting tomorrow, so it is VERY confusing

[tall lantern]

I was actually coming here to say just that, Very good design!

[earnest thunder]

Whoever had come up with this event with the points should simply be shot. If you don't give incentives to win an event, they're just useless.

[vagrant topaz]

It's more for an incentive to spend 😆

[bronze holly]

Server 31 has a horrible spawn rate in exchange space

[patent river]

Can we get more lvl 40 or higher exchange hostiles, now that the masses are at this point in the game. Every clear the coast is a spawn nightmare.

[late orchid]

Seriously need to up the exmada respawn rates

[old mica]

I’d rather they put 45s into Penumbra to match the armada

[high aurora]

Well, I guess I know my answer to the "3rd day" of apex now #chaos ..lol

[strong anchor]

Exchange Banks are very very very SLOW to respawn. Our systems are already empty!

[valid marten]

Where is the cosmic clean up event store? The event is on so the store should be there too

[earnest mountain]

Cosmic clean up store missing from event store, its not like it happens every week on the same day! yes I and other in my alliance have cleared the localisation and restarted the game separately too

[ancient meadow]

@icy cairn @wanton copper the cosmic cleanup store is not in the events tab

[restive bramble]

Just my 2 cents, but Doomsday armadas seem worthless. Timers are quick, rewards are weak, and enemy seems overpowered.

[austere mortar]

we say this so many times, it is always ignored. i’ll say it again. PLEASE! Fix the respawn rate for eclipse armadas! am entire server going for them and none available is just bad business seeing as you also want to sell the armada token packs. no armadas available = no need to buy = less profit for you. up the spawn rate = more armadas = less frustration for players = more money in your pocket @wanton copper

[eternal socket]

Gave up on eclipse event yet again unplayable

[cinder palm]

Eclipse armada spawn rates SUCKKKKKK. And kinda broken. Meh. I dont have all day to stare at an empty system. Off to decorate the tree!

[patent river]

Can we discuss minimizing the faction grind? Maybe it's exos, maybe it's certain lvl of hostiles that provide double pts. Some would say, bUt yUo can build ships...yes, but scopes has groomed me to hoard and prepare for spend auctions.

[upbeat ferry]

@earnest harness running Eclipse events while the spawn Rate is broken is ridiculous. If you care about the players in this game please make this a priority and fix it.

[shut geode]

The events of the last few days really aren't worth your time. You have to spend hours grinding for something you could otherwise do in 15 minutes. That's just ridiculous. The old events must now get an update, after the ratio of player level and costs to progress. For best solution, don't do the events, it's a waste of your time and progress will go faster if you don't do those events. Scopely fix the old content before you add more new

[compact spoke]

@wanton copper fix your game!! Server 133 lagg live hell. 1 Minute to London system. 30 sec to start an armada and no Response that an other atmada already startet.
Rewards from chest live perplex urbane or daily rewards dosent added to your inventory--> i opend a eclips chest with 555 purple uranium and and i didnt get it. Timer on the chest are Set but my Inventory stands at 444 purple uranium.
Want upgrade any ship Part everytime i try errormessage with conection lost. FIX YOUR GAME BEVOR ADDING NEW STUFF.
And much more of this Problems.

[modern urchin]

Any hints on how I can stop the game crashing every 3 minutes or seeing the processing screen

[stone quarry]

Again Lag issues with Apex event. This is getting ridiculous. Does Scopley understand what fix lag issue means?

[fierce belfry]

Can two "kill many hostiles" events that are mutually exclusive not be scheduled on the same day? Looking at you, Swarm Sunday and faction hunt.

[worn shadow]

Exchange armada is broken? The armada does not die and I lost my directives.

[stone quarry]

Alex Event always has bugs and issues when will these bugs really be fixed I'm tired of sending tickets to a third party Support Team that responds with preprogrammed responses.

[modern urchin]

Did you use kira? She's bugged

[raven drift]

New higher level eclipse zones would be awesome

[worn shadow]

nope

[rapid jungle]

I have an officer flash pass in my events, but I don’t have a flash pass in the store at all? Is this another glitch or just forgetfulness?

[wanton summit]

Do not disagree, but Eco discussed this with Rev and DJz during their first state of the game talks. In short, the devs don't want to give out too many mats in the bonus refineries. I think we all know why.

[modern urchin]

I just do a single pull.. I kinda wish there was one for 4* ship parts. Alas. Best way to get them is to scrap mayflowers, legionaries and d3s

[raven drift]

Power based leaderboard, please. Too many materials based in a row. Please balance.

[jovial zinc]

Incursions gift is a tiny fraction of what I’ve earned in all previous incursions without even factoring in the raid loot earned. You further delayed f2p path to mantis…another slap to the community.

[neat basin]

I know I might get some flack for this but at least offer some subspace relays in the store because that gift leaves much to be desired especially for folks that grind out those xslbs during incursions.

[icy marsh]

Is this some kind of a joke? Did dev forget to add like 3 zeros to this number? What are we going to do with 5 parts? Lol

[sharp sequoia]

An event store to go with the bye week gift might have been nice 🤷‍♂️

[white bramble]

What ops are you?

[icy marsh]

38

[vagrant topaz]

Seems like 90% of this new update is available only from the store only, so i'll give this a miss. What a joke.
"Hey everyone, get excited about...
A new dock - to buy
New Research and Build Queues - to buy
New Primes - to buy
New officers - to buy
New Ship Refits (not new - just repurposed NPC skins) - to buy."

[urban violet]

If ppl keep buying it they will keep selling it.....those poor whales need an 8th dock 🤣🤣

[vapid meteor]

Instead of incursion we got a chest with 500 parts for the new building?

During incursion we have the opportunity to earn thousands, and my building needs 2,300 for its next upgrade. 500 gets me nothing. What a joke

[icy marsh]

Welcome to the complaints all the bye servers have been having for months. And yet they still ignored us. Some servers have had bye months 3 times now

[modern urchin]

For once I'd like a event that doesn't add a gazzilion new currencies

[vagrant topaz]

I guess the extended maintenance time is due to the items in the shop not loading quick enough. God knows they dont actually concern themselves fixing anything else

[white ermine]

And refits are same as for some hostiles looks instead of being similar to the actual ships they are for. It was as if they said, hey, let's use this hostile and just add some colours. After that, we apply the 100€ price and people will go crazy!!!

[vagrant topaz]

Yeah they're really ripping players off with this update. It's pathetic. The Star Trek community deserve so much better than yet another cash grab from a mediocre game company

[rough ravine]

I for one am thankful that they are testing it and fixing it before we get in and have major issues. Bravo to the devs on trying to get it right instead of rushing it out.

[white ermine]

You really think there will be no bugs, lags and issues? Wow, you must've just started to play 😄

[worn shadow]

If they tested it this would not have happen!

[rough ravine]

Lol, I can hope, right?

[rigid belfry]

i'm confused on what they are testing, if some servers are up?

[opaque orchid]

Remember we don't have to buy the new packs. They only Introduce them because people buy. We create the problem. So whines to blame. Not sure why I need a 7th dock. I can already mine for than I need with 6 and still have 3 combat ships available always. Swerve

[white ermine]

Yeah but if you introduce new stuff, allow F2P people to get them. Yes, might take a year or so but I can grind for it at least. Don't give P2W advantage. Similar with Defiant. It was 100€ to get right away or about 4 months to get for free using Bajoran store

[somber hinge]

epic...

[modern urchin]

I have only 4. When you need to mine 4 star, 3 star and lat plus have a dock for the discovery it gets a bit of a pita. Not spending $50 for another one though as much as it would advance my game.. Now I really wish they would add more nodes to counter the fact that whales have 8 ships or whatever

[worn shadow]

F2P ends at some point in all these type of games.

[sterile plank]

How to complete this? Realta has been completely upgraded for a long time

[white ermine]

If packages were $20 tops, sure. When lowest ones are like that and biggest are 100€, not really, most people will quit sooner than pay 500€ to get some boosts that are not that grand

[worn shadow]

I agree with you, but am wondering what the revenue is like between stfc and games like candy crusher.

[modern urchin]

Notes in announcements... give it time

[white ermine]

Unfortunately, that is true as well.. Just sad that they don't understand that actually lowering packages would make people buy more. If I could get 4-5 packages for 100€, I'd have no issues spending here and there but spending 500€ for 5 packages just to get small boost... Nope, not for me

[mild glacier]

Much more than 4 months since you don’t get enough directives to earn enough loot to buy the blueprints every day. More like closer to a year, which fits the average time ftp takes before it can unlock things.

[tardy ginkgo]

The 80/20 principle would suggest that Scopely makes 80% of their money off of 20% of the player base. AKA the whales. So as much as I would love packs to cost $20 max, it is highly unlikely that Scopely will ever stop thinking that the smallest price for something is $100.

[worn shadow]

Business take the direction that make them the most money. F2P and lower spenders will eventually stop playing because they can't keep up with the Whales.

[grizzled nexus]

Why are the original strike team officers not on the store???

[sweet valve]

@wanton copper This is one fail point in every end of arc store. The officers released in the end of arc month are never available in any end of arc stores.

[fading venture]

Event store won't drop until mid day reset, going to have to wait another hour to see whats in there yet.

[modern urchin]

Ive still not got the Sarco lol

[worn shadow]

@wanton copper @icy cairn Please removed those.

[dark horizon]

well, since you spent for all the other ones, what's 2 more purchases ?

[worn shadow]

I would have if it was the same price! 😡

[vagrant topaz]

you know you could have used the isolinear data chips for the end of ark store and spared us the confusion of having two different currencies at the same time

[vapid meteor]

The event store ship refit icon is the disco and freesha refit that were available during the arc. Neither are available in the option though. I wasn’t able to earn both and really wanted to get the other. Can we get them added in?

[vagrant topaz]

Any chance off iss jf shards being added? They was available in the summer event store

[raven drift]

@wanton copper seriously…

[vagrant topaz]

why there is a "The Craving Part 1" available in the bajoran store and another "The Craving Part 1-5" available in the holodeck store?

[half flare]

I can’t tell you how frustrating it is that I’m college educated and have seen all DS9 episodes and didn’t have enough clues to figure out Kira was the spy. This sucked!

[olive cradle]

So are new Event Store options forthcoming? There's no options to spend them right now.

[mighty crystal]

So any isolinear chips left over from the prior arcs are worthless now?

[craggy elm]

They announced that they are not at the End of November (#official announcements)

[vagrant topaz]

no the options from last 2 months are there

[turbid cloak]

@wanton copper event store! Why are there no defiant bps or strike team officers. You have included the Explorer and Interceptor officers but why not Strike Team!!

[mystic epoch]

Does anybody know wich bundle has the Drydock H key?

[broken forge]

Thx for putting rare 46 ship bps in event store 😍

[drowsy vine]

Geez nobody can hostile hunt on botany bay! Awesome job as always

[scarlet parrot]

Strike Team was a different arc, they only put officers from this arc in the store.

[hollow ether]

Cannot attack anything…

[halcyon fiber]

Scopely logic, can't even spend all currencies

[burnt jasper]

Seriously??? All that time and now armadas, reds, and mission yellows are broke??!! What a joke! Where does the money we spend go?

[granite nymph]

As a level 32 player 3 new officers for solo armadas THAT I CANT EVEN DO seems to make for a really disappointing battle pass.

[sinful oxide]

@wanton copper Armadas are broken as well.

[lyric moth]

Anyone else having issues destroying borg probes?

[signal wraith]

Its all hostiles

[burnt jasper]

@icy cairn it's not just reds, it's also mission yellows, armadas, and PvP. It's all broke!!

[pliant forum]

It’s not just red triangles it also yellows can’t complete missions….welcome to Minerville

[burnt knot]

Scopely, you garbage money grabbing joke of a company. STOP adding content when your old content is still broken!!! Fix what you have!!!!

[lyric moth]

Watching Discord trying to keep up with the reactions in the announcements setting is entertaining, even if it is struggling to refresh the 💩 in time. It's not just red triangles, can't shoot anything

[versed hedge]

hostiles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Z4m4lnjxkY

[granite nymph]

As a level 32 player 3 new officers for solo armadas THAT I CANT EVEN DO seems to make for a really disappointing battle pass.@wanton copper @bek not to mention it is all broken Do you even test

[quasi aurora]

so you add projectiles into the event store but refuse to give a way to get the cryonic projectiles? i need 9 more shards for Cryonic Blast. Were is the ability to finish off the 1st months projectiles? I dont want Crit increase, I want what I was trying to get back in part 1 of DS9.

[granite nymph]

Well at least the store is still working. Amirite. Wink wink.

[worn shadow]

@wanton copper Not scoring killing Borg Probes

[sonic robin]

@wanton copper Are there any plans to add old prime research currencies to the event store at some point?

[novel mango]

sense.@wanton copper my skin mission is broken, not scoring when killing borg.

[worn shadow]

@icy cairn @wanton copper Game is messed up!

Now I can't kill the probes, it engaged in battle for a second and that's it

[night otter]

@icy cairn @wanton copper No BST officers included in the event store? I hope it's an oversight since they are all connected together.

[worn shadow]

I login the phone and back to the pc and can kill probes now.

[keen remnant]

@cobalt hearth on his behalf

@icy cairn @wanton copper
I have a few players who went all in on kira for the Intel briefs. It appears they will be unable to redeem all their rewards with the current 22hr cooldown and 7day redemption window.

Any chance the espionage/intel event store can be extended to reward those players with finely honed detective skills? Or the cooldown lowered?

[sonic robin]

Where can you exchange them?

[viral kayak]

@icy cairn & @wanton copper The correct term is "Command and Control" not "Command Control": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command_and_control

[junior pond]

Please stop making these 1 button press at a time.

[steel tree]

Why is there only a cooldown on the redemption for players who guessed correctly ?

[vagrant topaz]

do you mean the espionage options? I found out and was just going to ask the same question,

Why on earth would someone decided to put a cooldown timer in the final prize options? with only 7 days or duration too!

[sonic robin]

Where do you even see the espionage tab?

[steel tree]

Event store espionage-actions

[sharp cave]

@wanton copper last month's espionage explicitly stated that the interrogations would reveal the truth the longer it went, and all of them the last intel they gave was for Miles. So don't pretend there was some grand plan for who the traitor was. Y'all just picked whoever had the least intel.

[vagrant topaz]

you first need to complete the specific quest, you can take it from the holodeck, I don't remember the name, but it's the one that has no cost

[sonic robin]

ah that explains it, cheers

[lyric moth]

Went to check and I can see the TNG missions again(which I already completed twice by mistake) but the free one is In My Own Skin. I assume it's that one?

[vagrant topaz]

I think that's the name, but it's in DS9 tab, not TNG
Sorry for the daily in responses, there is a cooldown on the channel

[mint finch]

Need more Isolinear data chips. Please add to store

[lyric moth]

A new lvl 35 mission and you need to kill a 5 mln+ yellow hostile... how?

Yup, I have the same thing going on, sent a ticket but no response, probably won’t hear for days if at all

Mission is the carving part 4..

[umbral solar]

50 chests lvl 1-2 , other 50 chests lvl 3-5 no Realta bluprints , the event cannot be completed .

[kind fable]

They ask to upgrade de Moreau at level 5, she is already level 15 for me

[worn shadow]

I have to restart the game and hope that the circle stop spining

[celest wagon]

Why are players that can't access rare and epic solo armadas in the same potm bracket as players who can? Why not throw the 15s in there with them as well.

[hoary osprey]

@wanton copper @icy cairn iss jellyfish bp in the event store would be nice. They have been in all event stores for the last year (if not longer). Why not now?

The schedule is missing many of the what scores things
Also a bunch of things are happening in "Decembe", and missing the actual dates
@wanton copper

[rancid fractal]

Why the hell is Kira the spy? That makes no sense.

[ebon matrix]

That worked one time. It's been back twice now. I'll just go play something else until it's fixed.

[cunning chasm]

It was not fixed, had to restart game 3 times because of this (last time right now) when hostiles glitch and cannot be targeted.

[marsh summit]

One question, in the event store, there are the interceptor and explorer officers from new crews, but not those of the battleship, any reason for that ?

[cunning chasm]

and it glitched again

[manic estuary]

I've seen single event descriptions as bad but I've never seen a months event descriptions that were as poorly informative.

[vapid meteor]

Why are the strike team officers not in this event store. The newer ones are and the older ones aren’t?

The officer tab pull included ship bps for all 3 ship types, but only the dedicated PvP officers for 2 ship types

This makes no sense. How do we unlock strike team then?

[woven void]

I hate this, I absolutely hate this. I despise that I spent time and money on a character I really like to have it taken away from me and replaced with this creepy thing, standing in the same animation pose and outfit with just a head change instead of at LEAST making an actual Founder out of the character. I'm not upset about who was the spy, I'm upset that my RANK 4 KIRA IS NOT KIRA ANYMORE. Can we please have a mechanic to switch our investment in KIRA to the ACTUAL Kira that I paid and grinded for?

[icy marsh]

Is this why kiras ability is bugged? She was sabotaging our armadas from the inside?

@wanton copper the event list has a lot of SLBs listed but doesn't say what's the way to earn points, can you please update? Also some are missing dates

[fringe tree]

Starbase attacks? For plasma? Haha. This will be a joke. So basically all the big alliances that are now bored of the game will just go pick on smaller ones that can’t do anything to defend. Can’t you guys come up with better features? Fix territory. Starbases should have been inside TC

[tired ivy]

Hey scopley why are your support people so unhelpful? They completely disregard screenshots and cannot understand basic gameplay.

[sterile yew]

So is the prize for guessing correct the actual kira shards? Are we supposed to spend all our Intel on officers? @icy cairn

[ripe glade]

I'm sure others have commented, but upgrading the realta obviously is impossible for most of us

[mossy moth]

[covert flicker]

Regarding POTM/AOTM - Adding scoring in yellow box makes all other scoring pointless.
10 EPICS will score 3,000,000. Whole BP will score 1,500,000. Syndicate even with PRIME will score 240,000.
Even if I somehow manage to get to 10,000,000 from those 3, that's just 10,000(500 per day) hostiles killed in low level space. To remind how this is easily achievable, SCOPELY set a lock on 1500 boxes per day. Which means significantly more hostiles can be killed. This is especially easy if small group decides to "overload a system".
Furthermore adding competition to kill as many hostiles(in any manner) which lasts 20 days is IMO totally unhealthy thing to promote. Until this is resolved I will refrain from participating.

[icy marsh]

I still don't get the whole design intent behind starbase. Aside from the research tree which is not really part of the base, it's so useless. How did scopely make an idea as cool as starbase so useless? I can't dock, I can't repair, I can't trade, I can't...do anything. I don't even know where our starbase is! And what's the point of plasma? Do I actually do something with it? So now you add assaults and I'm still sitting here wondering what's the point of this entire thing

[celest wagon]

@wanton copper @bek is the schedule accurate in showing that jadzia is only available to 34+ via the slb and sms? This is an unprecedented slap in the face to go with the rest of the arc ignoring players below 33-35.

[novel mango]

It is a joke at level 29 I have to compete with people who are level 45 in events.

[spiral forge]

Ah good I'm not the only one wondering how to upgrade the Realta that can't be upgraded for many of us.

[agile karma]

or get officers to level 5 when they are already way past that

[vagrant topaz]

further down the line there is also a task to complete a research for the orion corvette, one that most of us already completed years ago, but for me it is at 0/1, so they need to make sure that it detects that the research was already completed

the ones that asks to build the orion corvette and upgrade it are techinically doable, but it would be really dumb for us to have to go hunting low level ships to get the bp

[white bramble]

Something doesn’t add up there. The AMS doesn’t score towards that Meta

[dreamy folio]

@wanton copper you guys annouced new Primes and the are already in the Starbase Tree, but there is no corresponding package to get the materials needed to complete the research..... or will you be providing them for free this time?

[white bramble]

Packs aren’t out yet

[dreamy folio]

so when are they coming? we´re also still waiting for the promised roadmap....

[white bramble]

Some point this month.

A lot of the new packs aren’t out yet. They normally come out in the first week

[granite nymph]

Are these the last 2000 isolinear data chips we are going to get. Because I’m still 3400 short from getting the projectile refit and I believe that is all I’ve used the chips for. And I thought we would get enough to get it in the end. I also have some unused data rods still left. Are we going to have an opportunity to use them.

[granite nymph]

Well these are the people who made the premiere Star Trek fighting ship, the defiant, into a support ship for only a small part of the game. Armadas.

[cunning chasm]

Same with this, majority of players already have Moreau above L5 and get stuck here

[stray cedar]

I’m 100 short yet have done all the events and not spent on anything other than the projectile. It has also turned out that others in my alliance are sitting on +7k after buying the projectile. Previously I had noticed my dailies and some events not tracking after completing them so had to have several events manually added but makes me wonder how much I missed and really should of paid a lot more attention to the espionage rewards. Not impressed at all

[granite nymph]

I also think there were events I could not participate in due to my level. Or that I got lesser amounts because of my level.

[modern urchin]

I don't know why anyone is surprised that Scopely cannot code properly.

[civic gorge]

@wanton copper The POTM events and the POTM token claims in the event store end at the same time. Might want to extend the event store a day, so people can actually claim it.

[granite nymph]

Coding isn’t exactly the problem in this case. They could be perfect coders, which they are most definitely NOT, and this error could occur because they and no one designing the changes play the game. I get the feeling that they just use gig programmers coding to specs some designer who is evaluated by how much $$$ a project brings in made in a hurry.

[willow quest]

The team is aware and it will be extended before the end of the event

[valid marten]

No Mantis parts in the event store? Also, I see auto hits are being counted in the POTM events, that would be unfair for people who have triple faction locked as aug space is highly crowded

[thorny perch]

There are Mantis Parts in the Event Store > Ship Blueprints

[valid marten]

What about people who already have the mantis and want to upgrade it without leveling up ops

[thorny perch]

ah ok - i thought you meant the ship plans

[urban moth]

Sadly POTM is not built to actually reflect a good player. It's built to sell armada directives.

[queen kindle]

While a large amount of pts could be earned from armadas, it would be rather expensive to compete that way against players who make use of all their docks to farm lower level hostiles.

[slender ice]

I dont have the realta, must have scrapped, how do I get it back?

[queen kindle]

Contact CS if you've managed to scrap your realta.

[urban agate]

Why do we have a recuit Ortegas Event with no rewards to give officer shards. Scopely, You are really packing in the fudge

[queen kindle]

It's just a wrong folder, I'd wait a few and clear localization if you don't want to see it.

[peak kiln]

So you add a relata event that forces you to relocate out of territory to partake in the PvP or the PvE...

[somber hinge]

can someone explain me, how this event connects to the main topic 'recruit ortega/uhura', when there is no shard in any single reward milestone?

[queen kindle]

It doesn't, it's a wrong folder. Try clearing localization.

[somber hinge]

Can someone please propose to defs to implement this as a standard action every day? This is obviously one of the standard fixes which works.

[novel mango]

Realitas mission not scoring, anyone else have this issue?

[tiny viper]

Interceptor Hunter not scoring

[short silo]

would be much better experience if i actually could attack someone in this " pvp" event by myself :

[timid cliff]

Would really like to see the Second Contact Elite SMS rewards scale better. They're kinda weak for having to burn a lot of boost juice

[kindred aurora]

Can we get a Sisko-Miles intel brief exchange to help some of us escape left overs?

[vernal ermine]

OMG!!! The mission "Warped Perspectives" is down right hilarious.

[sonic robin]

@wanton copper Any chance everything in the event store could get a slider for the amount we want to buy or at least an x5/x10 option? Needing to buy mantis BP 1 at a time is a bit of a shame

[hollow saddle]

why oh why can't my realta do more than 500 damage dealt per hit?? even when I have an exocomp active it doesn't get higher that 500

[queen kindle]

You need lots of DEF stacked in lower decks to make good use of TOS kirk's CM.

[hollow saddle]

thanks.. I should have known that.. duh!!

[high loom]

This realta event clearly says. 3 pts for realta vs realta defeat. (Not victory)
I keep getting defeated and getting no points

[wanton stag]

I had the same issue but I also won a bunch. The communication for events on this arc is a failure compared to the last arc.

[timid crystal]

Field training …. Locking behind a standard recruit chest is stupid as if u already used them, a premium doesn’t work.

[terse harbor]

Need to turn off autokill scoring for this POTM event if it means you hit a Cap and then can't farm Probes etc.

[tired ivy]

The domination event should have given me one point though

[pliant valve]

not locked. open chests using lat, shards you need will turn into xp or transporter patterns but still count

[small narwhal]

Hm is your tos kirk in the captains chair? 450 damage is too low, your defense can’t be that small.

[pallid sand]

No need to use Lat, just need to wait till you have some chest yo open

[pliant valve]

or that...👆

[timid crystal]

Fair nuff. Now I have to complete 10 researches for station to move forward. I’m lvl 40. How many speed ups would u recommend I burn through to move up this chain? In other words, will the field section be updated for higher levels as I’ll need to use 18 days worth to get to 4/10?

[hollow pier]

@wanton copper Can you confirm when the event store limits are being removed? (They currently haven't)

[pliant valve]

Well, as I understand it, the field training tab is persistent and intended for newer players (the rewards don't support speeding anything up). If there's no countdown clock on the section you're on, then use what you're comfortable with, or just re-look at the tab periodically as you play normally...

[timid crystal]

Silly to put it everywhere when it’s for lower levels.

[hollow saddle]

I had lower deck crew in lower deck, forgot I needed to boost defense

[meager cave]

Even though it says limit 5, there actually is no limit. I was able to buy 120 refit shards for the augur.

[timid crystal]

I’d like to be able to get free pike and Moreau shards. Maybe the dev team should consider that. Just a suggestion

[pliant valve]

I don't disagree.

[small narwhal]

Even then. Your tos Spock alone has more defense stats than 450.

[hollow pier]

Really? Thanks for that confirmation 🙂

(I Can confirm the same is true of the Projectile!)

[cloud wadi]

What does this information inform me about? 😄

[tired ivy]

Are you kidding me scopely?? You closed my ticket and now wont let me open new one?

[pine goblet]

It would be nice if cerritos buffs lasts the correct amount of time still. Mine says 8mins2secs. Lasts about 3/4 of that now

[strong steeple]

Just now noticed the claim for the espionage event. Why the long timer to make pulls??? That cuts it really close to be able to make them all!

[lethal harness]

The Player of the Month slb is broken by daily hostile limit. Can you please look into raising (even if just temporarily) the daily hostile limit? Scoring is armadas and grinding. So I’ve been doing armadas and grinding. Now I’m in actian space unable to collect any venom. I can’t get antimatter or do borg probes either. 3 loops broken. And if I want to be competitive in the grind slb, they will be broken all month. Plus, now I’m afraid to do armadas in case those rewards don’t apply either. This is not a workable situation and defeats the whole concept of a grinding slb.

[tidal heart]

How can I do the realta event if I have a maxed realta

[dense prairie]

The "player of the month" event and the hostile cap are incompatible.

[icy marsh]

On the other hand, not sure that POTM reward should just be given to the person who puts all of his ships in a system and then afk for the entire month.

[dense prairie]

That's a separate argument about whether incoming "fighter" attacks should count for the slb. I don't argue that they should.

But, the current state of affairs makes the game devoid of normal rewards for someone who actually tries to compete, with their butt at an actual keyboard.

[viscid phoenix]

The people who win that will be people who buy armada packs, not hostile grinders

[dense prairie]

Great read. Doesn’t change the fact that the event as designed is incompatible with the hostile cap

[lethal harness]

I was in 5th and gaining on 4th. I’ve bought no packs. The hostile limit removes the free to play path to competing.

[turbid coyote]

It would be good if realtas were made unlimited warp range for events like this or just automatically upgraded to warp 50 or something at a certain ops level. Pain in the A to have to move your station to complete this event. No, this is not a suggestion to sell a Prime Realta Warp Range pack.

[mighty star]

According to my calculations requires me to shoot at least 200 hostiles. somebody wasn‘t thinking straight

[mental robin]

Or you can use your disco

[turbid coyote]

Nah I can’t, haven’t unlocked summoning. Tiered the dumb thing way up way too much in early game before I knew better 😆. Plenty of early 30s player in same position.

[mental robin]

I started paying attention to the metas around ops 20 when I got into a good alliance who actually discussed such things in ac.

[turbid coyote]

Yeah, same but around ops 24ish from memory, still ample time to tier up the ship too much too early. I can probably just use ket to buy it but meh. See how the month goes

[white bramble]

Then do it the other way round do your Borg and Mantis first. Then you can score towards the POTM. Hostile limit doesn’t effect event scores

[wanton stag]

@wanton copper @icy cairn when is this event going to run? Also there is a typo for the ISS JF Brawl missing the same info.

[wide prawn]

just heard there is a battle limit.. didnt know it should take that off for the potm event as long as thats going

[deft wren]

You're kidding me, right? 🙄

Also please remove the timer on the Kira turn in - it's ridiculous that the one we have the most to turn in has the longest cooldown to prevent it

[shy trellis]

Not having a realta is annoying

[pallid sand]

Contact support

[verbal dove]

@wanton copper The way the battlepass has been written in the station news channel this time is really causing problems with my Dyslexia because it's not as accessible as before.

Events in the previous battlepass had highlights in a different colour text, which clearly told me what needed to be done helping me understand and plan.

Now I'm having to read, re-read and ask for clarity; could we have the core instructions in a different colour from the narrative to help

[pseudo stump]

This mission hostile seems a bit too strong for an ops 35 mission.

[pseudo stump]

And the hostile that followed it was only 431k

[brazen lichen]

Why is there a single designated system for Realta vs Realta? I'm not about to recall deep space and token space miners to move my base, can't kill hostiles where I am, and can't reach Tofu or whatever it is. But plenty of players in THIS SYSTEM in the same boat, we could trade off...

[dim hare]

What’s the deal with Realta and Moreau missions —- both are already maxed and I can’t do the mission…. Is SCOPLEY going to fix this or what…

[white bramble]

#⭐-official-announcements

Just Disco the Realta to a low-level system and kill hostiles.

@wanton copper Can you please make it so we can spend all of these. Don't need more stuff in the inventory that will never be used again

[prime acorn]

Interceptor Hunter hunt with an interceptor didn’t score unless I hit an interceptor

[prisma gulch]

@wanton copper @icy cairn Really like the POTM and AOTM events. Something like this every month going forward would be awesome! Maybe add an honorable mention tier for 4-10? The grinders scoring option is great, even if the ratio to armadas is significant. Difficult, sure, but there’s a path even for f2p.

[frail bridge]

@wanton copper @icy cairn i thought u guys said a few time we would get this months the isoliner and be able to complete the skins this month we are now on day 3 and no new chips what gives? i fill lied to on this we have 2 days left and was told we would beable to complete it if we got shard every month i did and now nothing

[manic estuary]

I just have to say, This event store is AWESOME!!👍

[brazen current]

Dear Scopely, most players are just complaining, what went wrong. Here some nice words for your good work and workers. This ark was enjoyable, doable, fun and rewarding. Also the Espionage Event was a really nice, well designed and 🙃 Event. Props for that. And the change to Weyoun was needed, if you want to keep up the value of that Officer, you know what i mean😉 Also, i had a Mantis from start, never used it, the Grind was too much, not worth it and absolute overkill of time consume. Now, with the more of apex per system😘 Thanks to you👏🤝👍 you brought the fun back to Game🙏

PS: ignore what others reply to this, you done very well here and it is importend to point it all out. ❤️

[grizzled sparrow]

So far, I really like the new arc : The multiplication of officers was making it very difficult for newer players to level them and that is well solved and active young alliances can finally compete against the whales. At 1000 a kill whatever the level, active trumps big ships. You should limit the chasers, though, they are a bit of a cheat.

[brazen current]

It's Battleship today 😅🍺

[manic estuary]

Hey! Cardassian hostiles and hostiles in Cardassia are 2 different things. Event description says the former scoring is only on latter.

[lethal harness]

Yes, this sort of works. I can do those things, but I'm still left grinding less than I would otherwise during a grind slb to keep from losing out on armada loot. The workaround is also just that, a workaround to the underlying decision to run a grind slb while simultaneously putting a cap on grinding. I can do loops like mantis/borg/bajoran during the crowded times of the day, then try to get ship parts, then armadas, and lastly just waste time hitting tiny hostiles that don't pay anything because I can't collect anything anyway. But doesn't 'hitting tiny hostiles that don't pay anything because I can't collect anything anyway' for hours while hoping that no one starts an armada until after hostile count resets feel just a bit like a design flaw? There has got to be a better solution to the problem than this. Too much uncertainty over a too small daily hostile limit. Even something as trivial as a hostile counter remaining until reset feature would help. It doesn't fix the flaw, but it does remove the uncertainty. And one possible solution I've heard is that we all screenshot our hostile count every day. But again, that would just feel like a design flaw as well.

[urban moth]

Come now... you're not actually grinding... your parking a ship and letting hostiles do the work. That's not playing the game... that's being lazy and it shouldn't be rewarded with infinite points.

[white bramble]

It’s being rewarded regardless so might as well do it after you done all your important stuff

[urban moth]

Indeed. 2,000,000 free points while you sleep vs. getting your actian rewards. You can skip a night of auto grinding and reverse the cycle.

[white bramble]

The ALB doesn’t get affected by the 2k limit

[bitter anvil]

Is that the only thing we are going to get to spend the data chips on?

[icy marsh]

speaking of which....is the hostile loot reset at dailies reset or at event reset time?

[white bramble]

5am UTC

[icy marsh]

i think that's dailies reset time... thanks for the info

[lethal harness]

Wow, for not being on my server you seem to have watched my gameplay. Except I really have been grinding for ship parts, ship bps and rep pretty heavily. I don't doubt that what you're saying is something many are doing (so make the event count for only some types of hostiles like the heavy hitter event did went the epic salvager refits were released, an easy fix for another obvious flaw). But don't say that's all I'm doing as a way to dismiss the problem.

[lethal harness]

I addressed that and have started grinding with an order based on the idea. It is a subpar workaround for a design flaw and avoids addressing the actual issue. Why would the ALB not being affected by the 2k limit be the best solution that scopely can come up with? That players need to grind their events and loops in a certain order not to have gameplay break? Archon024's statement that everyone only autogrinds was wrong and a bit insulting given that I actually do grind, but not offbase as a whole. In truth, the current design and your suggested solution make autogrinding more likely server-wide, not less. Design the event with obvious problems sorted out. No caps during a grind slb. Limit autogrinding by focusing on certain hostiles or excluding faction and bounty hunters. The solutions as presented are insufficient and make it pointless to actually try to win what would have been a pretty cool month-long leaderboard.

[urban moth]

It’s not just grind slb. It’s also an armada slb. Grinding is just another way to get points.

Sorry if you found it insulting… the ONLY plays I’ve ever encountered who hit the 2K limit are auto grinding. It would take something like 10 hours of grinding to (assuming 200 an hour). It’s hard to believe anyone spends that much time grinding… especially with the targeting bug.

I would add, there is nothing cool about this leaderboard. It’s akin to the employee of the month - which is rarely, if ever, the most deserving employee. POTM does not reflect what makes a good player. Big deal, you have lots of rare and epic armada directives and either have loads of time to grind or use auto grinding.

A cool POTM would reflect everything that encompasses being a PVE or PVP player.

[lethal harness]

All good 👍 I agree on the disappointment of the leaderboard. If they wanted to just call it an armada slb I'd have no complaints. It is what it says it is. But for one where grinding is the main f2p scoring component it would just be nice if they don't also hamstring the grinders. I think youre right on the autogrinding for many players, including a couple above me in the slb on my server. I do grind a lot, usually with 3 ships in three different systems so 200/hr is not hard to hit. Slow days I'm easily 1k hostiles, grind days hitting the cap happens. Less since it was raised, but still too often.

[normal flame]

What where did you get 2k limit? I thought the hostile limit was 1500

[lethal harness]

It originally was 1500 but they raised it since so many players were hitting it

[normal flame]

yeh I use to hit it now and then since then I've been mentally keeping my hostile hunts down

hmmm is there no limit for the POTM, I havent received chests fora while now, but my POTM is still scoring

[quiet tapir]

Why did you take the sali out of the event store this am?? It was there yesterday!

[queen kindle]

This? still there. Have you purchased the limit or reduced your rep levels since this morning?

[small narwhal]

The limit doesn’t stop event scoring.

[normal flame]

it feels like most in my bracket have been playing on the basis of 1500 limit for everything... things are going to get nasty when this spreads

[stark yacht]

The damn game is broken i cant even select a target without the game thinking for a whole minute an sometimes even more… absolutely stupid! On battlepass store on ship parts ridiculous you have like 10 spots to buy franklin part…. Absolutely ridiculous! Wtf 😳 fix the damn game! Fix now!

It’s 2k and no. Use some common sense before wasting the 2k hostile loot kills

Oh was not aware they had increased it to 2K. Yes, there is some level of common sense being applied, but still, wanted to know if Scopely are applying it as well. Thx.

So what does it take to get the missing rewards from the previous Treasury that had messed up rewards that Bek posted could not be fixed in game but that CS would provide a chest with the missing rewards for those of us that were impacted by the incorrect treasury rewards? 2 tickets both saying ~’they will provide a chest with the missing rewards’ then both tickets closed without any chest being received.

Why not instead of taking the pisssss with the treasury is full glitch joke event - why don't you put your staff to good use and sort out the lag or the contant crashes or any of the other bugs that you create each month

[worldly moss]

@frail bridge

[bitter anvil]

I only see the ship skin and weapon to spend them on. Is that the only two things i will get the option to spend them on?

[white bramble]

Yep or materials/rss

[turbid coyote]

Doomsday worms are the worst in the cycle of repetitive events and it’s not even close

[worn shadow]

everything in this game is like that...

[turbid coyote]

Nah for the average player they get something else out of it or tick off two tasks. Swarms ? Do dailies / get frequency mods. Borgs? Get nanoprobes. Combat the coast ? Get codes. What double function do worms tick off?

[frail bridge]

?

[obtuse trellis]

@icy cairn @wanton copper the update broke something

[verbal plume]

doesn't seem like I am getting any points for Heavy Hitter SLB when I do solo armadas

[jovial zinc]

You run heavy hitter & POTM yet still cut us off from getting chests or rep after 2k hostiles. I’m trying to win events & every day I’m cut off. This 2k limit is bad for the community, it punishes your most engaged players.

[white bramble]

Nothing to do with the update

[still mango]

Any reason the projectile skins or espionage actions boxes aren’t showing up in the event store?

[white bramble]

Projectile skins are there. espionage actions requires you to finish the event first

[queen kindle]

It's a mission, "in my own skin"

[still mango]

Where? And in my own skin unlocks the actions box?

[white bramble]

Yh in my own skin unlocks the action boxes

[sharp dirge]

hi i have little problem with new update

1. field training mission upgrade spock to lvl 10 (i have lvl 20 long time but mission is not finish)

can somebody pls help me solve this?

[white bramble]

#⭐-official-announcements

[woven python]

Hello, I guess I won't be the first to tell you this but it serves to join the complaints you have already received...
I have the Realta at maximum and therefore I cannot make the point of uploading it or adding components to it, everything being stuck at that point and I cannot advance, the same will happen with the Orion Corvette, upload Moreau, etc.
Please, could you tell me how and when you are going to fix this bug?
Thank you very much for your attention, long and prosperous life from Spain 🖖

[vagrant topaz]

Stay tuned to #⭐-official-announcements for updates such as those already provided on that subject.

[lavish coral]

Whatever they’re paying you (lol) to say that 3729473 times a day…it’s not enough 😂

[vagrant topaz]

Repeating it helps to ease the pain of being asked questions to which the answers are already available in channels that people have asked Scopely to use more regularly 😂

[vagrant topaz]

it's been a while since they made one of those events that scored by acquiring a new cloak or using it against hostiles, will they make one of them again in the near future?

[vagrant topaz]

Ssssh, don’t encourage them.

it's ok for me if they decided to not do them anymore, but they should say it out loud, so I can stop waiting it and start buy the cloaks freely, without the fear they will do another event just after I unlock the last one available to me

[cedar comet]

Can we make the Jellyfish brawl where we can choose Int, BS or Expl parts? Make it a ticketed event, give one ticket out for the event when it drops and you choose. Easy peasy.

[cinder crystal]

Event descriptions this arc are frustrating, many don't tell you what to do or expect so what's the point?

[stone quarry]

This Arc event is cracked out with lag , bugs and game play freeze. Very annoyed with how Scopely and how they have yet to fix these issues these past few months across ALL servers <@&509691205798592532>

[verbal crag]

In the away teams event (SLB/SMS), critical away team missions don't score points. 😢

[raven drift]

@wanton copper can we please get a power SLB instead of this endless stream of materials leaderboards…please.

[pseudo stump]

@wanton copper the heroic recruit SMS last month required me to spend roughly 5500 uncommons for full completion. This month, a non heroic is requiring me to spend almost 24,000 uncommons. This is insane

[gritty mason]

One Epic and one Rare Away Teams with Critcs awarded me 300 points only on SMS

[waxen coral]

The Dax sms recruit event looks more like a heroic event!!! I’m not spending 31K UC for that…

[opaque prairie]

i like the sneakiness of keeping the heroic SMS from last month but running it as a normal SMS. welcome to the new standard

[hidden needle]

<@&509691205798592532> Any word on the K'T'inga? The kelvin came out with the Interceptor event... the valdor came out with the Battleship event, ODD but OK, and nothing came out for the Explorer event. Its the 4th day now and no Breen Warship Refit. Is there a problem with it?

[grave rose]

@wanton copper completed 2 epic away missions with critical and no points are showing for assignment hunter

[thin bear]

Why is it that almost every time there's a Assignment Hunter event, critical successes don't score? This is a pretty low bar to expect to work, but almost every time it's broken.

DO BETTER.

Seriously. I don't feel like this is a big ask from the player base, especially as it's a recurring issue and has to get corrected almost every time. SIGH

[harsh mason]

4 million points needed for the (non heroic) Jadzia SMS. A few weeks after the (heroic?) Weyoun SMS needed 3ish million to complete. Basically impossible, even for light spenders, to complete them all. Where is the logic? @wanton copper @icy cairn

[patent tide]

Yep, away teams not scoring for me either

[thorny perch]

The Dax Event is a bad joke. I think you are living completely out of touch with reality. At the unspeakable armada events, please add normal ones and not just rare or epic ones.
The points requirement is outrageous.

[opaque prairie]

FYI - Power SLBs usually also imply mats spend.

[covert flicker]

Since when are this Mats SLB with this large level bracket? I'm lvl42 competing against 44-45.

[verbal plume]

did they remove the vidar from the cosmic clean up event store? some of our guys who were looking for the vidar isn't seeing it

[queen kindle]

Vidar should be there now, have them restart.

[faint torrent]

Claiming 1 ship BP at a time in the event store. It's really annoying. That's 3 clicks per BP. For example: If you need 50 BPs for the Mantis, 50 BPs 3 clicks each... Bruh. I will take a 5 or 10 BP option.

[barren jacinth]

this is insane what we can buy mantis bps only one at the time. i need a 95 bps, so i need click 95 times on mantis section in event store and 95 times on "buy bps"?

[formal musk]

Update the event template scopely. It isnt hard.

[thin void]

The Recruit Dax SMS milestones are crazy. It’s not the Weyoun heroic recruit but it has the same milestones. 3.16m for Ops 41 when the Recruit Mariner SMS had a 946k top milestone?!

[hidden needle]

<@&509691205798592532> Really changing the rewards MID event kinda messed up

[white bramble]

Players reported 4-10 rewards were too high. It was changed 🤷‍♂️

[noble citrus]

4m pts here is a bit fricken much...

[vapid meteor]

I have a single sisko intel shard thing left that I can’t spend. The events gave out things in multiples of 3. The event store accepts multiples of 2

It’s also completely lost on me how this event actually ran. How were we supposed to determine it was Kira? I literally did nothing other than guess, and I guessed wrong. Haven’t got the slightest clue where these hints were. One of the worst events in a long time for me. Took far too long, extremely confusing, and the rewards didn’t live up to the hype

[grand wind]

Let me guess Oops it was supposed to be marked as "Heroic" and we forgot...

[hidden needle]

And players changed their build tactics based on the original reward for next weeks event. Thats messed up. 1st place gets the stuff in the store... 4th got research its fair. Also did they screw up the realease time for the K'T'inga refit. I should have been out two days ago with the battleship event but it wasnt.

[white bramble]

Not sure about K’Tinga refit let me ask.

Unfortunately not everyone had the common sense to not report a player beneficial (and interesting) bug 🤷‍♂️ it’s life

[noble citrus]

81 epic solo madas....cmon now. Even spending rss doesn't get you far

[hidden needle]

No its the 1st place ones being greedy. thank you for asking

[white bramble]

Btw do you own a K’Tinga?

[white bramble]

PM me your playerID please

[warm crest]

@wanton copper hope you are paying attention to the people regarding the material spend requirements on the sms for the officer recruit event! Leaving the massively inflated scoring for the sms, while cutting the rewards? Is thst scopely's idea of listening to feedback???

[white bramble]

Should be fixed now. Would recommend restarting the game

[hidden needle]

I see it thank you

[hidden needle]

Its touching the station 🤣

[swift prairie]

It makes no sense for Ops 39 or lower to be in the same recruit Jadzia mats spend bracket as Ops 40+ - the mats economies don’t make sense. I’m spending 500k to complete the event at 38 and a 42 is spending 3m+. I can’t even refine uncommon or higher 4* mats to compete.

[fresh frost]

Shouldn't all the ships touch the station? How else do crews get in and out 😅

[thin bear]

Is anything being done about critical successes not counting for the Away Team events when the event started?

[soft cove]

This is ridiculous, ops 39 is completely shafted. No incentive to attempt slbs OR the ridiculous sms milestone. Instead of incentivizing progress, you’re pushing us off the game.

[sage steeple]

Pretty disappointed that the recruit Dax material spend event took the amount of mats required from the Weyoun "heroic" event, but did not pay out the same way. Weyoun had special recruit tokens. Dax does not. Previous single server SMS + SLB events had a much lower points threshold for the SMS. It feels like you took the worst parts of each different type of material spend event and put them together to make an even worse spend event. It won't make much difference (and likely no one will believe me) but I haven't spent a single dollar in 6 months but was teetering on the edge of buying the BP pack. Now, I won't be doing so. I am also not participating in this spend event.

[icy marsh]

Oh come on...let's put this projectile in the event store??? @wanton copper

[viscid phoenix]

It is in the event store, for isolinear chips

[dim hare]

I don't understand this Heavy Hitter scoring - I have been grinding for two days, non stop using speed ups and crit crew and I am sitting at around 30 billion.. I don't understand how the guy in first place has over 200 billion. I realize that he is 31 and I am 28 but it can't be that much level difference. If it is then Scopley should reevaluate their brackets.

[bleak eagle]

read the descriptions and use crews that maximize CD

[dim hare]

Read my comment again... lol

[bleak eagle]

its specific this time vs previous HH events, ive seen 3T in other brackets. grind FKR to get the most points. some ppl are making that mistake and are you using more than one ship to grind in same system? that speeds up along things

[left minnow]

Are points for rare and epic armadas delayed for the recruit Dax event?

[dim hare]

Doing that, still a difference of 180 billion.

[bleak eagle]

im currently sitting on 120b points, but only because i worked and took naps 🤷🏼‍♂️

[lime meteor]

I really need to complete this, why dont you just put it in the event store and that's it? It is annoyingly sad to be 9 shards away!

[obsidian whale]

I see your nine away and raise you this, which I was hoping to have managed to get over this month.

[woeful ledge]

Scoring for the Alliance Starbase Events seems to be broken. They should be the same, but they are far off.

[white bramble]

They are not actually the same. The scoring cards just had the wrong values

[covert flicker]

I was looking at SLB's which r currently running(i'm lvl42) it seems that everyone has different level bracket. I roughly browsed 100 spots on shown and even taking into account that players can change level during SLB and remain on same chart, this looks like pretty consistent pattern.
Can someone confirm that this is correct or not?
And what are exactly the brackets for each since I'm certain that they are not the same?

[elfin crag]

I'm level 39 - event "recruit jadzia dax SLB" now the group is 38-42, before everything was fine 36-39, now there is absolutely no point in competing with players who spend 4* (only 3* resources for 36-39) 🤷🤦👎

[raven drift]

Spend a lot of mats to level ships and characters, do you?

[gritty bobcat]

What is with the Dax spend event? Heroic cost for average reward

[opaque prairie]

Those power leaderboards never include ship and officer XP anymore. Stop

[white bramble]

Some research’s that have high power gain have loads of mats needed to be spent. Same with some of the better scoring buildings

[shut wharf]

@wanton copper can you clarify the different calendars for this month?

-Will we have assault event or not? graphic calendar shows it, but announcement stated no assault until january. If no assault event what instead?

-Will we have 3 starbase ALB ? as stated in written schedule, but graphic one shows only one... Important to decide what alliance resources we dedicate.

-Also the information provided about assault at release was not complete... How will it work? like armadas? could the attacked starbase be defendes? move away? what can be looted: what ships carry or all? ... I mean if we are to invest in the military module we should understand a bit how it will work no?

[white bramble]

You are confusing assaults and incursion. We will be having assaults this month

[white bramble]

Check the helpshift in the M49 patch notes for Assaults/ASB stuff

[raven drift]

The last one included ship xp. Stop making things up.

[raven drift]

And? Give me more facts. There are facets of gaining power for SLB’s that cost varying amounts of materials and some that don’t. For materials SLB progress one MUST spend materials. Why push back on this request?

[white bramble]

I’m just saying the 2 SLB types are very similar

I never said I was pushing back

[shut wharf]

helpshift did not explain anything lol

[white bramble]

I think the CC’s made a few videos about them 😬😬 might be worth checking those

[white bramble]

Content Creators

[shut wharf]

I tried to check and am still confused. I also read an announcement stating no assault would take place in december.. This is why I ask for official clarification.

Any link with relevant information about assault mechanics would be welcome. What I saw so far does not satisfy my curiosity.

[dim hare]

So what level are you

[white bramble]

The official clarification is that there will be assaults this month. Incursions start again next month

[dim hare]

Define assault

[noble citrus]

Starbase attacks

[dim hare]

I have never seen or been able to attack another group’s star base

[noble citrus]

Yes thats the point. Its new. They added a whole other section to the Starbase to build specifically for the assaults

[dim hare]

This is a baaaad idea…. All it’s going to accomplish is unite the spenders because the only way to successfully level and defend it will be by spending…. So instead of spenders in every alliance, they will migrate to one or two alliances

[noble citrus]

That seems incredibly unlikely

[dim hare]

History repeats itself…. It has happened in the past with other similar changes. Eventually people will get board with it and it will equalize itself, but never the same for non spending alliances

[white bramble]

Yes it’s new.

[dim hare]

I just don’t understand why scopley continues to drive out the non spenders. Do they think once we all quit, they will merge all the spenders to one server and they will continue to to spend the same albeit on one server so they will save money on overhead. Considering spenders spend to have an advantage- I doubt this business plan will work in the long run.

[grizzled sparrow]

PLAYER OF THE MONTH : This event is well balanced for active factions have a chance against whales. However I think it is very inconsiderate and bad business to end the event on decenber 26. Either families and spouses will hate it or players will resent it.

[white bramble]

Interesting point. Someone has pointed me to the assaults information being removed from the patch notes so let me ask if they will still happen

[dim hare]

Yes and no… it gives non spenders a fighting chance.. but the grinders will fall behind as the spenders buy more rare and elite tokens

[raven drift]

Without any hard metric and supporting data to back it. For instance, while many researches require materials, the first level of researches disproportionately generate power (whereas subsequent higher levels tend to cost more materials). Additionally, ship xp is a driver of power SLB and while tiering requires completing equipment upgrading for ships and the utilization of materials, xp spend is separate and not compulsory when tiering. Finally, the power gained from bajoran research is also separate from material expenditure and a source of significant power gain. In closing, bring data or shut it. Success in those two leaderboards have different drivers and success in the power SLB does not require the level of materials expenditure that a materials SLB does. @wanton copper can we get a mod who is better informed? Please?

[white bramble]

Get a mod that is better informed? 🤦‍♂️ Great way to show appreciation for volunteers on the server

Have a nice day 🖖👋

#⭐-official-announcements

Nothing against you, but Scopley makes more then enough to pay a representative to sit in discord and address issues. However they choose to use you as a scapegoat.

Lol, well, at least my question has been answered. Thanks everyone! 😊

[subtle oracle]

all dead 113

why is lag so bad on event load up why does scopey never learn?

wheres my quest for Amalgan??

[queen trout]

@wanton copper can you explain what happened with the amalgam event ? I build one and the events is gone ?! How does that work ?!
After all this years is is hard for scoplay to make the events and game stable?!?!?!??

[distant steeple]

‘Shut it’ is not a acceptable tone to take here.
Change your approach or look to future steps that will effect your presence on this discord.
Various slbs have been looked at and discussed in depth and hopefully we’ll see a return to some other slb style of events.
Also, spending mats, in regards to primes or initial node unlocks do help in dom and or mat spend slbs as you well know.
I will pass on your comment of seeing a dom slb.

Uhm, where is the amalgam event. I saw it. And now it's gone.

[obtuse trellis]

Scopley happened as usual

[dim hare]

And who are you?

[shut wharf]

I saw it too.... 😩

[verbal surge]

can confirm

[ruby sparrow]

What happened to the tier up amalgam event? Just tiered up and it’s gone?

[distant steeple]

Someone with a moderator role. #🌠-rules-and-roles12

Make yourself acquainted with that channels content please.

[north lintel]

It's mainly because some players must have had Roma plans, and we won't have them. .

[heavy escarp]

Just wasted a bunch of ketracel and lat for a no longer existing amalgam event. Should have known when I saw Dabo tokens as a reward, something was wrong.

My name is red, that’s the clue here, irrespective of my online status at the time you look.

[deep halo]

Why ppl wasting rss to upgrade amalgam when see as rewards dabo tokens?

[distant steeple]

It seems it was added in error. Checking on next steps.

[obtuse trellis]

Ah well invisible mode would be the common reason someone might not show up. Which I would understand if some mods might use it to escape the anger charged chat.(speaking from experience from other communities I've been in)

[pseudo sigil]

ah! so i wasn't seeing ghosts lol. I've been looking for that amalgam q, but couldn't find it anymore. Thought I saw ghosts lol

[queen trout]

So are we getting our amalgam bp back ? Or this is another event scoplayed and we end up “paying” for it ? @wanton copper

[obtuse trellis]

Why would you want the bp back and waste the rss and a build slot rebuilding it if it's already built. Just except the fact that it's built and move on and save parts up for when the event is actually suppose to run and use the freshly built amalgam to tier up and score. @wanton copper as for scopley they need to be more careful at event launch. Or things like miss launched events are launched and taken down and angering the player base. Some players did manage to do the event before it was taken down. There for scopley replace the amount of Dabo tokens with e-store loot to those who completed the event and put the event back up and change the dobo tokens in to e-store loot

[queen trout]

Why would I accept it when I had no need for it and I built it just for the event ?!
No I will not accept it, there is responsibility and accountability that’s how a company works .
They are both responsible and accountable for their actions therefore @wanton copper please offer a viable solution .

[obtuse trellis]

Why wouldn't you need it. Multiple amalgam are great to have for raiding, and great for incursions.

[queen trout]

For the simple fact that I already have one and was saving the bp to score in an event ( like the one started ).
I don’t raid, as it is too boring.
At the end of the day they messed up, the mistake needs to be rectified.
At no point a business does something wrong and expect the people that suffered because of their mistake to just say “oh well …”.
You are trying to find justification for something wrong that they did, on the contrary they need to be responsible and address it.

[obtuse trellis]

No im not justifing it. I did say something to scopley through @-ing eco. I'm just pointing out to you the player accountability for doing a clear copy and paste of an event from February. That would more than likely going to be taken down. I did offer a solution also. By replacing the Dabo tokens with e-store loot. And putting the the event back up with replacing the Dabo tokens with e-store loot

[vagrant topaz]

changeling Kira is still bugged, but some players use her thinking that she is not the bugged one confused by the change of name and appearance, and armadas keeps failing, good job scopely, really good job

[fading venture]

Who in God's name thought these event brackets were a good idea? Seriously? What was wrong with them the way they were?

[vernal isle]

It’s not right, until it’s Scopely Right™️

[high aurora]

Why did you keep the insane milestones for ops 40+ for the Dax SMS @wanton copper @icy cairn ? It feels as if whoever is designing these milestones are completely ignoring us and DJz and Rev when we said it was COMPLETELY UNSUSTAINABLE. 4.3 million is not a sustainable milestone, nor is it a good return for 11 shards. It seems as though you are just trying to make a point of "last month was better". We're not dumb, we know this tactic all to well. Set it back to pre-Dukat levels for the SMS. The repeated tone-deafness of this after so much feedback erases any positive steps you've tried to make. I guess I will let me wallet do the talking.

[fair lantern]

OMG: do they not understand how stupid this alliance station assault event appears to be. 10 minutes warning to protect the alliance station be damned. Players will log on when they log on. They're not going to leave work, stop eating dinner, or pull their cars to the side of the road to deal with random alliance station engagements. PVP mechanics in this game are so deterministic and obvious that one look at any aggressor will instantly determine whether or not it's worthwhile to try to respond. That means the only worthwhile stations if you want to engage in satisfying PvP are going to be evenly matched alliances whereas everyone else will experience a constant state of being very pissed as they are drained without recourse or never being engaged at all because they're too powerful. That situation is not going to be very satisfying to either the attacker or the defenders. If these are permitted to happen at late hours it's going to start pissing off players because no one is going to want to get up at an odd time or do they seriously expect alliances to undeploy them every evening. It's hard enough to deal with my own station and at least in that situation good shield discipline prevents these problem. Who freaking cares about plasma it's not like a player can wear it as a badge in their station's inventory like one can with RSS. I'm starting to think that leaving these undeployed and forgetting about them seems to be the best option.

[humble lance]

I agree with the above from Omicron007 it’s a complete slap in the face to us players!!! I’ve managed to complete this running of the event but have got no materials now and after watching Rev’s video have realised you’ve stitched me out of 80 officer shards! That’s unacceptable!!!!! I’ve only just moved into the 40’s so didn’t realise the event was a heroic without actually being called that. A complete disgrace!!!! One step forward and then ten back!!!!

[twilit harness]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/903021677502406706/1051455007288987678/IMG_0951.png so how come there are now Realta events and a change to which ships can be scrapped but no way to get the blueprints to be able to compete?

[white bramble]

This has been passed on Friday, hopefully when the CM’s come on today they will let us know the next steps.

[fresh frost]

That looks like they've conflated the Field Training achievements with "oops I scrapped and never replaced my realta" - you may need to be more direct/specific with them

There have been realta events for ages now, every 3-4 months we get one I think?

[twilit harness]

This is a screenshot from a member in my alliance, I thought I was pretty clear, but anyway there are players that cannot join the Realta PvP event because of changes to which ships can be scrapped and Realta initially was one that could be scrapped.

[fresh frost]

Yeah, clear from a player pespective... but for CS you need to spell out exactly what the issue is, and what you hope they can do, rather than "I can't do this realta event" it's "I scrapped my realta in the past ,and need the BPs, because then I can do these events"

"Say it like they're 5" is a good rule of thumb when you want a positive outcome from CS, otherwise - while they're being bombarded with "I can't do realta" because of field testing - they're going to be skim reading "Oh, it's another realta query, copy-paste-close".

Talking to customer service, like googling, is an acquired skill 😄

[placid bolt]

This Recruit SLB clearly had a timer that reset to another 24 hours when it showed 2 minutes left. This is so not cool. Why can't the programmers put the correct timer (like the POTM/AOTM event), it fools people and it is not right.

[sturdy fjord]

Did they miss a 0 on the Kira worms event? 😅😅

[limpid galleon]

Can anyone tell me what blue and lilac borg directives are used for? :o (not for borg armadas, i looked it up 😅 )

[deft wren]

I think they used to use Rare and Epic Borg Directives but it changed

[magic bramble]

Is kira worm hunting... a bit high?? That is 20x higher than a normal bp event at my lvl

[sudden sundial]

Yeah, I'm sure not going to bother killing ~200 worms to earn 'Kira's Favor'🙄

[rancid canyon]

I need almost 400k... 😅

[frosty stirrup]

@vagrant topaz 104 level 41 worms to finish the Kira event? 🤣

[vagrant topaz]

“Heroic” 🙈

It’s been reported. I can’t imagine it’s intended but if we hear anything I’ll be back.

[sharp iris]

@wanton copper @icy cairn whats going on with the worms event, why such a grind to get these milestones

[vapid meteor]

Problems just repeating themselves. Back to the old days of an event with too few systems. Entire server fighting for a handful of hostiles

This Kira event is ridiculous

[high aurora]

I had no issue with the worms event at ops 42. I can kill level 46's. , try punching up vs explorers. You should be able to be hitting 42-44 if you have a t8 auger or ent

[bleak eagle]

35, ranked 3rd with over 200b points.... someone else already hit 1T mark at my level ranking 1, no thanks lol

[crude lily]

Completion targets are too high on Kira event, did they miss the Heroic label again??

[high aurora]

I think folks should try and punch up and not be afraid to take ship damage. Always try and test your limits. A lot of the time it will be faster to punch up, repair and fly back. It can be 6 hostiles vs 60.

[frosty stirrup]

@wanton copper The Kira worm event? Seriously? 169 level 41 worms?

[high aurora]

Have you tried the 42s, 43s, or 44's explorers?

[tiny terrace]

Dang… I really hope the 6000 Ketracel thingies are worth the 150m tritt repair bill.

[frosty stirrup]

My bad that is 104 level 42 worms, 169 level 41 and "only" 65 level 43s.

[tiny terrace]

To late. Already done. Comp chest? 😬

[frosty stirrup]

I'm sure the Devs had no trouble with this event in their sandbox.

[vagrant topaz]

Nah, it actually was nowhere near as bad as it looked for me.

[merry raft]

You have GOT to stop jacking up the requirements. You made a big deal about Weyoun bring an heroic recruitment event. Fine. But then run Jadzia out at the same level? And what's with the number of worms needed in the Kira favour event? Dial it back!!

[rancid fractal]

@wanton copper start being useful and start fixing these ridiculous requirements. It's BS and just pisses people off

[rigid belfry]

Level 31 POTM Event reward sucks. It should be way better for a 20 day event. https://i.imgur.com/KiOE4LM.png

[brittle willow]

What is wrong with the scaling of this event - its impossible even at my level - 200 level 38 Worms???!?

[unreal coral]

as i found out - need to punch up a lot higher in terms of doomsday worm - as an ops 41, i had done L38 worms for these events - this time completed the event doing a total of 9 worms L43-46 (in 2 hulls of a T6 augur)

[raven drift]

Yep. Bring the Cerritos, spend a few hulls, go get it.

[deft wren]

I think I must have gotten lower milestones than almost everyone else in this Discord... Took less than two jellies at ops 42 🤷🏻‍♂️

[worn shadow]

Use exocom & the battle triangle to your advantage. Hit the biggest worm you can!

[green sandal]

This Kira Favours event 1 is terrible. Scopely please fix up your SMS milestones. Doomsday doesn’t even give decent loot.

[icy marsh]

Any chance of more isolinear chips to be earned? I'm 1 stupid shard away from the cardy projectile...

[fading reef]

Field training for Ships is now stuck on Orion Corvette tasks that were completed over a year ago. Cannot progress to complete since I’ve already did this research.

[stoic peak]

100 hostiles If I don't want to spend half a billion on repairs killing 45-46s

[covert flicker]

You have spoken few days ago on Rev channel about reducing the grind. Kira #1 event is heavy grind event. I used 3 ships and again it took time. Furthermore this event is coupled with Clear the Coast which was always a grind event even with two Stella's. And there is also ton of other already existing regular dailies I need to complete.

[static zinc]

still stuck research has been completed ages ago

[rustic plover]

Not sure the issue on worms I killed 7 level 45 bs worms and completed it. Took me 2 d4 a to do it

[mild bane]

Dear Scopley, Dear @wanton copper & @icy cairn please extend this timer. Its really short. Thanks in advance 🖖

[vapid meteor]

The field training auto complete, didn’t auto complete nearly enough stuff

This works event is insane. At ops 45 I need 638k points. Usually a worms events takes 1.5 run of my jelly to complete. I’m at 9 runs of jelly + 4 runs of enterprise and still not done. Massively too high milestones

[vagrant topaz]

Where’s your 42 ship?

[vapid meteor]

Sitting in the hanger bay at a low tier, due to a horrifically stupid amount of uncommon and rare required to upgrade. Pushing for 46 ship instead

[vagrant topaz]

That sounds like a choice that led you to this problem, then 🙂

Skipping ships always carries the possibility of having a grind event become far worse than it is intended to be; and 42s aren’t the ships to skip. 🙂

[vapid meteor]

It’s my fault scopley decided to 20x the requirements for this event, completely disproportionate to all the others? … wow didn’t realise I was having such an impact

I’ve had no issue with any other event. The kill faction ships event takes 1/10th of a jelly run. No event takes more than 2 runs. The requirements for this one is many many times higher than anything else. It’s not marked as heroic, and the rewards are quite low. There’s no justification for it

[twilit harness]

Hi @white bramble are there any further decisions made on granting replacement Realta so players can compete in the Realta PvP events?

[vagrant topaz]

Short memory; the Klingon Wayfinder whatever they were events were just as brutal when I pushed past the limits of my Chen 🙈

Yes, skipping ships is a choice and a choice the player makes, and I regularly say when people skip ships they need to be mindful of the price they pay (solo armada difficulty, grind events etc)

Fortunately the events don’t feature too regularly so it’s a rare case of “suck it up buttercup” rather than game-ending 🙂

[white bramble]

Not heard anything let me ask again

[round silo]

Stuck on orion research done 4 years ago!!! Really?

[twilit harness]

Also does anyone know when the USS Terror event is running again?

[long goblet]

Anyone else struggling to do Kira's Favours #1? 150k I need to complete the event in total yet a lvl40 doomsday only give 1440 points. 5hours to go, never going to finish it.

@wanton copper @icy cairn

[vagrant topaz]

Kill bigger than Lv40

Lv46 is 25840 points

[long goblet]

I can't kill a lvl46, a few lvl40s and I need repair

[vagrant topaz]

What crew you using, what ship, and what ops level are you?

[long goblet]

ISS Jelly with PMC crew, I'm newly ops 42 so don't have a G4 faction ship yet

[white bramble]

You can hit level 43 explorers

[vagrant topaz]

I think this is what I was talking with folks about earlier about event bounds that assume you have the ship as you hit the Ops level.

Unfortunately as it is, it’s a case of maximum effort.

[long goblet]

Sorry but I call it boring grinding for insufficient reward. Not worth the effort in my opinion so I'll just give it a miss.

[vagrant topaz]

Event store loot and officer shards based on meta, 5 shards and 6k Ketracel 🤷🏻‍♂️ your call but I’d be putting the grind in. Can you Leslie full synergy a 46 with a G3 epic ship?

[hollow flax]

That isn't intentional.. Scopely messes it by a factor of 10

[shut geode]

Worst wurm event ever made in this game it takes ages to compele it and 1000000000000 op players need go the two high wurm zones

[topaz surge]

When is the Orion research bug getting fixed?

[wanton summit]

Scopely really needs to add officer badges to end of arc event stores if they're not going to improve their sourcing through other means.

[elder marsh]

Kira Doomsday feels completely out of proportionality. OPS 35 needs about 5k points, OPS 39 35k

[half flare]

It’s very annoying that you all are having a meme contest for your screw up. The comp chest was great and would have resolved the issue for me, but the contest makes it seem like you don’t take the player experience seriously.

[rain cove]

@wanton copper can we get some vic fontaine appreciation please at least with an avatar🙏

[worldly moss]

Espionage event was worst event ever! The big surprise at the end.... you get a few officers tokens and a nearly completed cardassian disruptor!

[white bramble]

It was possible to unlock the full disruptor for free

[modern urchin]

Yeah it was impossible for me at ops 43, such a pointless grind why are worms even in the game?

[shut geode]

It was indeed impossible, main problem not enough zones for players 39/46 only two, 100k players fighting for every ship. Most in my alliance not able to complete it

[worn shadow]

go for the high level one and you can compete the event with 10 kills

[shut geode]

Not true, I am ops level 43 killed 20 - 45 wurm, only 40% complete it

[wheat summit]

You want feedback? Ok. Stop with the stupid “Kill 20” 💩. It’s Trivia. Kill ONE and done…

[twilit harness]

How come at L37 I get offered 95x G3 UC Crystal yet my alliance member at L35 gets offered 1,260x G3 UC Crystal in the treasury event? And 100k Latinum more?

[copper helm]

Yesterday y'all announced that today would be the last day to spend the chips, but they aren't in the event store anymore, is this going to be corrected? 😅

[worn shadow]

go higher!

[white bramble]

No. Today was the last day to spend the chips. 1h 27 mins ago

[brazen lagoon]

The most recent post from Bek in the official announcements said we'd have through today.

[copper helm]

Why did it say through "tomorrow" then? Through 9am is hardly through the day, and less than 24 hours since the announcement?

[white bramble]

Through till event reset. Although fair point on the use of the language

[jovial zinc]

The limit of 2k hostile kills a day before we stop earning reputation & chests needs to be removed. You are running events that ask us to grind as many hostiles as possible all month long.

[copper helm]

Very disappointing, had the language been more clear I'm sure more people than just me would have had an opportunity to spend the last of their chips 😔 was hoping to get the prints to unlock a ship (& therefore the refit) from the baseball cards today, had the credits but didn't want to spend early with a chance of a unlock, assuming that through today meant through today and not until today.

[halcyon fiber]

he was correct, 16 kills i was done

[shut geode]

no, I did more than 50 45 wurms only 80% complete

[fiery cape]

What makes you guys think people outside the USA know or care about baseball questions? 😂

[shut wharf]

For us ignorants Google is our friend...

[unique meadow]

Take the cap off of loot chests and hostile drops during PvE events. Should have been done before this arc started..

[summer barn]

And XP/rep gains

[small narwhal]

Hmm how high is your milestone? 45 worm is 15970 points and stfc.space says ops 43 top ms is 244k so 15 kills almost completes it. 80% done at 50 lvl 45 kills sounds like ops 46+ event not ops 43.

[proud turtle]

<@&509690795536941056> possible bug. I have opened a ticket but I thought I would let you know as well. I just got 25 auger blueprints from the holographic cards packs. It did not give me the auger blueprints, it gave me D4 instead

[foggy hamlet]

<@&509690795536941056> as a suggestion because of those who are just a tiny bit shy…put the cardassian disruptor and ship refits in the regular event store now that the special currency is used up. Unless you were just saving the event currency from earlier it becomes impossible to unlock all of them unless only one was focused on and the rest was saved. Or there was a surplus kept from previous months.

[humble sleet]

Agree, this was a huge missed opportunity, the erratic and unannounced nature of the spending made us all think it was poorly done, and when it’s finally a situation where we can unlock things the ball gets dropped when Scopley could have made a little money from having Isolinear Rods available for purchase

[fresh saddle]

When is the Syndicate SMS/SLB event?

[frail bridge]

they said we would get the extra stuff if we did it each week i did to finish it but nope kinda feel lied to @wanton copper @icy cairn and sure those that saved there rods got it done but they never said we had to save them to finish it only that if we max bought the refts or partical we would get what we need this month to finish that didnt happen

[sage steeple]

Still curious about the lack of acknowledgement on how the milestones for the Dax SMS material spend event was set to the HEROIC level of last months Weyoun mat spend event, with fewer shards and no special recruit tokens. Are we just going to assume this is how it is from now on @wanton copper @icy cairn ?

[muted pollen]

Deep Space Niners - Trivia Question #2 Is WRONG. If Scopley had properly researched baseball they'd have known a team can either be 9 or 10 players. The 10th player is an optional designated hitter and doesn't field so answer B is wrong.

[wild pivot]

How many do you have to destroy for the final trivia question this week? I'm not getting any credit for it.

[final roost]

welp, regardless it's B in terms of in-game requirements. At least it counted for me to mine dilithium

[pliant valve]

Because the show DS9 (which was made in the U.S.) features an episode where they're on the holodeck playing baseball... it's a callout to the show...

[queen kindle]

All of the answer options are 20 hostiles. If you aren't getting credit, then your selection may be incorrect.

[wide prawn]

from treasury sign fixed to broken rods 😛

[mystic kraken]

The announcement said the espionage store ends today, but I don’t see it…

[warped sluice]

@wanton copper @bek u said in a rev stream that this month if we got the particle every month we would get the rods needed to finish it this month that never happened why?

[frail bridge]

This is what I heard to @icy cairn @wanton copper

[queen kindle]

Probably heard wrong. Rods were never used for refit exchanges. And it was possible to earn enough chips to have bought one of the choices available.

[warped sluice]

Meant chips

[frail bridge]

It was chips and it was in a video with @storm ridge @wanton copper @warped sierra was in they said we would get the chips needed if we did the max pull every months I did one of the last vid rev said go a head and spend your extra after u did the box pulls because we are getting more the hole impression that was given was we would be getting more espionage events this month to complete said refits and particles that not happening but we know we can't trust the content makes and scopely I guess

[twin mason]

Maybe it's just me, but I find the furor over field training weird.
Sure, it might have been better to give it to everyone who's past it, but it's clearly a new player tutorial system that also helps unlock early access to Pike/Moreau.
If you're having trouble, it's NOT DESIGNED FOR YOU!
The rewards are aimed at early players anyway. They're not stellar. It's no big deal

[frail bridge]

I completely agree I don't get it so many issues with bigger stuff and promise not met and people worried over a starting deal thin what's should be

[gilded warren]

And had it been tested pre launch , shucks they could corrected before launch.

[twin mason]

It wasn't designed for everyone.
The fact people much higher can't complete it should barely be considered a bug

[trim gazelle]

Re: the updated brackets for the Jadzia leaderboard

It's not appropriate to compete two different economies in the same event. Lvl 39 and 40+ cannot be in the same bracket. @icy cairn @wanton copper

[vale laurel]

So it's pretty frustrating that you guys decided to add this pack in the event store after the fact, you should add more time to this for those who used their event loot. How were we supposed to know that something like would be put in the event store? @wanton copper @icy cairn

[wicked edge]

Im pretty sure the bps limit for the amalgam in the first arch of deep space 9 is 100 bps. I got 54 bps for the amalgam in the event store and scopely took thw ship from the event store after that. I am now 1 bp away from getting that ship and this is mega frustrating

[white bramble]

The bp limit is 50 for the amalgam

[wicked edge]

K thanks

[vale laurel]

another thing smfh treasury time? did they shorten the timer!!!??? like wth those don't match up do they??? i swear

just waiting for the slowmode @visual merlin i did not realize that, i have a free one and completed the event excited to cash in on it haha

[visual merlin]

if you completed the event you have 2-3 days to open it. Always been the case

[edgy moth]

turas upgrade in field training going get fixed?

[wet grove]

Trivia Events: Generally, cool and fun to solve.
The current one with baseball (why?) as the trivia topic - fail.
Baseball may be a thing in the US, but it is definitely not in the rest of the world, and even if it may be played in some countries, its rules and mechanics are far from common knowledge.
Thats like if I would ask you trivia questions about the mechanics of „Hornussen“ (google it 😌).
Please focus on star trek topics, thats why we play the game.
You know, Star Trek Fleet Command, not Base Ball Runner Command 😏

[queen kindle]

Sisko was a huge fan of baseball.

[wet grove]

Doesnt make it more of a thing in the rest of the world 🤷‍♂️
Just giving some feedback from a „european“ point of view - it isnt surprising that an american sports is chosen as the „favorite“ sport of a figure in an american series, but when you make a game event where people from all over the world will have to answer them, you‘ll need to consider that basically no one outside the us has any idea how for example baseball is played.
And on top: Cant imagine any of the players are into star trek because sisko was a fan of baseball. In the whole lore of Star Trek, that seems like an uninportant detail, so not sure why we‘re having a trivia about baseball instead of one about the events of the DS9 series

[unreal coral]

After all the problems with treasury notification last month, now that's it's full for me this month I can't open it, the parts trade-in for complete rod which is normally in recruit tab has disappeared. To be clear I have in excess of 4000

[floral wadi]

What is the balance of everyone’s treasury looking like? Mine seems out of balance (level 43) it contains a very small amount of trit compared to dil. I will have the parts to open it tomorrow with 30 day chest. Thanks

Same with the Par, but I have plenty of that. Only wish to know if this is by design or error

[vagrant topaz]

Design. They’re always heavy one way or the other.

[uneven relic]

the 2000 Hostile limit doesnt stop you from scoring in any event

[sinful oxide]

I got 5k of broken rods, cant turn it into a whole rod so, not gonna spend rl cash on opening it.

[white bramble]

Contact CS

[proud turtle]

Instead of selection of meh officers in treasury, it should be enough transporter shards to let people pick. This would make the treasury worth buying. So far i bought 2. $50 pack and a $5 pack when my server first started. At this point i see no reason to buy more.

[sweet valve]

But it does prevent you from doing Dominion, Borg, and Eclipse stuff until rollover. The 2k limit during this event sucks. I can blow past the dumb limit in less than 2 hours.

[uncut cloud]

Are we going to get more information on the starbase assaults, how they're going to work, etc before tomorrow? There was a link in the update, but now it's gone. I'd like to be able to tell alliance members what they need to know. Giving us a new thing with nothing else to go on is terrible.

[vale laurel]

@wanton copper @icy cairn what is up with turning broken rod parts into a full one? It is nowhere to be found in the game that I see and now I only have 2.5 days to collect the treasury??

[white bramble]

Contact support and inform them of your desire to and the lack of option for you to exchange your broken rod fragments.

[vale laurel]

Do you think they will actually reply before the timer expires?

[vagrant topaz]

Yes.

[white bramble]

Likely, already seeing loads of responses being posted here. Even if the timer expires you will be on the list for the fix.

[vale shuttle]

so i went through every single collisional plasma place there is in the game. and all of them are 0 .... even the ones with starbases in them. there must be something wrong
how can they have an AMS that is about harvesting stuff from these things. and not have them harvestable?!

[vagrant topaz]

it says zero because your station reached zero, the limit is on the buildings, not on the nodes, if you move the station you will start collecting again, and see an amount dependent on your buildings

[white bramble]

Pick a node and wait a few minutes they reset and start mining again

[vale shuttle]

Thank you guys! it worked! 😄

[unreal coral]

i submitted my ticket 8 hours ago and no reply yet - not confident of them replying before timer expires

[white bramble]

As long as they have you on the list for the fix that’s the important thing.

[red atlas]

@wanton copper where’s treasury key? I have 4K rods an 700 kills but no key. 2d10h left to open

[unreal coral]

one day they'll start testing the stuff they change in the game - that's all I want for christmas! really bad track record on quality this dev

[white bramble]

Contact CS

[red atlas]

Event will be over by time they ever respond, like always

[vale laurel]

That's what I said @red atlas sent a ticket we'll see

[pine wolf]

Figures the one time I can open the treasury and it's worth opening and it's bugged....do better, scopely.

[white bramble]

Speculation is that they are collecting all affected to release one fix out. If that’s the case it’s unlikely to happen in the next 2 days

[vale laurel]

the very first thing is says is that request may take up to 72 hours

[fallen yoke]

my bad but is this intentionally kept secret, when this event actually happens?

[white bramble]

The ticket is purely to acknowledge that you need the treasury in exchange for 4k broken rods. The fix is being worked on when it’s done they can roll it out to everyone on the list

[vale laurel]

ok 🙂

[thin void]

<@&509690795536941056> I am strongly suggesting that Starbase Assaults be cancelled. We have virtually no information about what the heck is supposed to happen and cannot plan. On top of that, now we're supposed to do them while there's a starbase mining event AND the Cardassian armada event? This is the wrong time for it. Just cancel this run and do the second run only.

[wide prawn]

or cancel mining and armada event for another day

[icy cairn]

It's part of an announcement coming out today 🙂

[rustic plover]

Para bellum is not complete able for me.

I need 4 points, kill a fed trader. Nothing.

[fresh saddle]

x zackly.!

[white bramble]

Contact CS they can give you the lash points and the rewards for it

[halcyon fiber]

Why on earth are there still event store options with single quantity entries (Mantis), does scopely wants to make it as painful as possible to get stuff F2P?

[merry raft]

Dear Scopely. Most level 43 players do not have a 4* ship of each type. Heck, most level 46 players do not have a 4* ship of each type. Please keep this in mind when setting event requirements.

[halcyon fiber]

i have 1, for what, apart from maybe solo armadas, would you need more?

[gilded ocean]

Contact CS do you guys realize the community trust CS as about as much as trusting scopely can make a release without a single bug?

[uneven relic]

Or you know, everyone has different ships anyway, so do the events you can do.

[merry raft]

I just mean that event requirements could be better matched to player levels. Some have been getting ridiculous of late.

[low mortar]

Unlikely, I just got word from Scopely that response time has gone up to 72 hours. My treasury expires in 69 hours.

[iron python]

The team is aware there's a ticking clock on a lot of folks. I just asked for an update and they are still investigating, but we will keep an eye on it.

[jovial zinc]

Correct but I’m using rss & speed ups & not getting any loot or rep etc

[minor summit]

Two players joined our team recently. However, their contributions for the Alliance of the Month ALB event are not going to our team. Any ideas?

[white bramble]

If they joined after it started and scoring for another alliance then they can’t score for you

[minor summit]

Well that stinks. What good are they to me then!? 😂 JK. Okay, thanks for the confirmation. This was the suspicion, just wasn't sure if this is something that was going to be fixed or not.

[white bramble]

It’s intended

[white bramble]

You can bypass it by not scoring for another alliance and then joining the new one. Then you score for the new one

[ebon matrix]

Thank you for putting Mantis in the store, however, maybe for future feedback put a 5 or 10 box option? I have to click this thing 50 times now.

[raven drift]

100 times for me. So much fun. 🙂

[pallid sand]

We already begged asked for a slider. Hopefully next time

[fading venture]

@icy cairn @wanton copper we have G4 warships, G3 warships, G3 miners plus specialty ships in event store, can we add G4 miners too?

[ember mason]

Player of the month cool idea..very long event, rewards are missing something. It need speed ups and some other items for the time to win, an avatar would have been bonus to for bragging rights. I mean heroic daily events give 10 m tritanium. Fix the 2000 hostile kill limit on hostile rewards. Group the factions together in its own limit. Roms, Feds, and Klingons….
Groupa all@other hostile groups there own 2000 kill limit..being punished not able to get rewards for time killing.

[white bramble]

You can also do the loot grinding first and then kill the hostiles with no use after for POTM they still count. The hostile kill limit doesn’t apply to events

[ember mason]

True hit my limit ..7 hours later could not kill exchange hostiles for its faction related stuff when its timer refreshed needing its hostiles rewards i loot and resources

[deft herald]

"Hello Commander. Thank you for reaching out about the "Unlock Amalgam - SMS" event that was removed. The said event was not meant to be released yet, and we apologize for the inconvenience.
Unfortunately, since the resources were used to advance the upgrade for your Amalgam, we are unable to provide a compensation. "

Stay classy Scopely.🤬

[ember mason]

While the hostile kill limit was still in effect for all hostiles…we had 3 different hostiles kill events and on top of that our daily kill event for swarms the other day and the 12 days still left for POM ecemt

[rigid belfry]

it's ridiculous there is a hostile limit. legit players shouldn't be punished because you can't control the bot issue

and yes the potm event reward is truly lacking in the lower ops. 20 days for this event and this is the reward... https://i.imgur.com/ISpD2Df.png

[timber halo]

Can’t open the treasury with broken rods even though it’s filled.

[neon valve]

Same here and then I get a message from support saying it might take as many as 3 days to answer my request.

[uneven relic]

Send in a ticket to CS 😊

[turbid coyote]

Can we not do away teams events multiple days in a row pls. My speedups are crying out for mercy

[viscid bough]

So they've decided vto disallow anyone to turn in broken desealing rods? I don't have the option

[queen kindle]

If you wish, you can contact CS and let them know you want to exchange your BDRs for a working one.

[rigid belfry]

By the time they reply, treasury is gone 🙄

[queen kindle]

Lots of players have their replies and their rods in the last few hours. The sooner you make the ticket, the sooner they can get you yours.

[red pawn]

How about just ad the damn thing to the recruit section. Problem solved

[turbid coyote]

Mine was in the recruit section. Successfully exchanged

[vale laurel]

I have to give props to the STFC customer service, submitted my ticket about 9 hours ago and they responded and made my broken rods into a full one so i can claim my treasury!!! @wanton copper @icy cairn Thanks for the help @white bramble !!

@red pawn lol you're cool bro, i'm first to complain about issues so figured i would give props too

[vagrant topaz]

It was, it however doesn’t appear to have had the desired effect for everyone so for those few affected by that issue it’s a ticket to CS for them to sort.

And please remember the rules around remaining respectful to fellow commanders 🙂

[cloud swan]

<@&509691205798592532> 2 days I cannot open my treasury and I opened a ticket 24h hours ago. Plz help me.

[distant steeple]

Give me you player id and ticket number in dm. I’ll forward it.

[cloud swan]

@distant steeple it's done thank you for you time ( i mean I sent the info)

[carmine nacelle]

Interceptor hunt is broken. Killing with D3 does not count. Nor killing swarms in case the info is wrong as it was with explorer hunt. Correction, killing battleships with D3 counts now. Not other types.

[rustic plover]

Cs are closing my ticket as they don’t see a problem…

[white bramble]

PM me the ticket number and their response please

[high aurora]

Is it time to have a second meme contest?

[vagrant topaz]

great thing an attack 50mio plasma away.
Great thing.
Added as Ops 46 in the same EBL as an OPS 60.
The event is so much fun.

[viscid bough]

12 hours on mine so far and no response whatsoever

[long rampart]

Why is there only a $99 option to buy a desealing rod? Ludicrous in pricing just one item.

[high aurora]

Making the Assaults a seemingly pay to participate feature is a step in the wrong direction. With no clear path for non whales/non spenders to meaningfully or competitively participate, we have undeployed our starbase.

[vagrant topaz]

we also undeployed the base, I see no reason for a weak alliance to partake on an event and be the punching bag for the stronger ones, at least give the loosing side some points

[finite loom]

Can someone please give us some information on this Starbase Assult event. It is so unclear on how this works that we are having a lot of our members of our alliance freaking out

[vagrant topaz]

The assault mechanic is worst.
With only one attack a big alliance can empty the full plasma inventory of smaller alliance bases. This keeps the smaller alliance smaller and make the bigger ones bigger. No fun at all

[tough moth]

So they pre-released starbase assault. a L60 griefer alliance bought $99 pack of assault directive and managed to take 62m SB resources in one hit? WTF? 4 years of playing and months of collecting and refining gone. think a lot of us are done.

[noble citrus]

Yea you lose everything if you lose. Enjoy 🤣

[vagrant topaz]

My mistake, I have edited my posting. Its not all of the inventory, but its all plasma in it.

[strong anchor]

Is there any explanation as to how assaults work? Like what permissions are needed? As operative, for example, I can’t even see starbase tags

Can't finnish the "Si vis pacem" event. 4 points left.

[white bramble]

Contact CS

[radiant fog]

P2P events on a F2P game is how you lose players and future money, cause those players that might buy packs further down the road are never going to because you pushed them away with P2P events. Gj alienating your playerbase more scopely. 1 step forward, 2 steps back.

[fallen yoke]

hehe ... new Assault directives you need to purchase to raid an ASB for completely meaningless loot.
Not with me scopely 🙂 I seriously spend a lot, but this is ridiculous 😄

[cedar lily]

So we kill the 700 then we have to ask cs to convert our broken rods into a good one ?? That's the process??

[queen kindle]

Normally you'd use the exchange in-game, but it's broken atm, so yes, contact CS to convert the BDRs into a working one.

[thin void]

I think Starbase Assaults might be the worst idea I've seen so far. P2P only and one shot can take an alliance's entire store of plasma? Geez

[trim gazelle]

This series of pay only Starbase assault event is hot garbage @icy cairn

The only purpose these raids have is fun and farting around, it shouldn't be paywalled.

[small heron]

This starbase assault is a joke. You put up packs an hour beforehand, whales buy it, and drain all the other starbases. Which by the way -- ALL of the resources gone!? What kind of mechanic is this? And with no way to shield.

[steep prism]

Soooo yall not gonna let anyone do assualts today unless we pay $100.... im not gonna spend $100 till i try it out 🤷‍♀️

[toxic gust]

Just what we need. An event where people with too much money can use it to take away all of your ASB resources, and there’s absolutely nothing you can do about it. 🤦‍♂️

[small heron]

Yep. We literally saw three months worth of plasma we mined Stolen in a manner of 10 mins. I wasn't expecting much here, but this is downright terrible.

[high wharf]

The way to shield is by undeploying your starbase.

[urban moth]

So... We're supposed to spend $99 on Mandates for Assaults... when they were delayed because of technical issues and there hasn't been really any confidence established that they work and the rewards for doing them are not worth $99. You aren't even trying to hook us with one free Assault?

Limit 2??? Seriously... do you think you needed a limit on these?

[desert nimbus]

i just undeployed starbase until we at least know it works as intended, and doesn't steal everyones lat in alliance or something

[frigid patrol]

What garbage have you unleashed lol **** you scopely

[urban moth]

The event has been up for 2 hours already on our server. Here's the latest stats. I wonder why nobody is doing it...

[trim gazelle]

Because why bother?

[glass pewter]

I think everyone has covered the garbage that is assault. the Recruitment SLB is back with the exact same rewards. Who needs a second avatar of Worf?

[coral hatch]

@icy cairn @wanton copper Half of my server can't log in, stuck at 76%. Stations are getting emptied while people can't log in. Well done.

Me, trying to find the giveaway chest containing assault directives that Scopay will surely give out to everyone when they host a solo event where you need these… sarcasm.

[desert nimbus]

no one needs to assault for resources either, everyone has 10s of millions stockpiled,only reason is crap event, which no one knows works properly

[urban moth]

Before station assaults were implemented, stations should have been a place where alliance members with certain levels of reputation could conduct commerce. Trade mats and resources and whatnot... Then you'd have stockpiles of materials that would matter for assaults.

[tropic mantle]

Not a fan of events you have to pay £99 to enter

[gilded warren]

Couldnt organize a duck in a breothel usual pathetic information given to players epic fail yet again.

[trim gazelle]

@wanton copper @icy cairn

Today, you "scopely" sucked. This undoes all the goodwill you've been building up with giveaways, bug fixes and compensation.

[hard birch]

$copley, are you going to give financial refunds for this assault event? $copely, you should be ashamed that you are charging real money to advance in a PVP event.

[west veldt]

💩 on 🍞
This is pretty much sums up 2022

[hard birch]

The assaults should be free for alliances to assault each other. What a joke you've become.

[soft agate]

FAQ gave F2P route… should have been available first or at the same time as spending… our alliance turtled our starbase till free sourcing is available

[trim gazelle]

@icy cairn @wanton copper
This is currently a Lie in the FAQ:
Please fix

The FAQ will be updated later today 🤣 "Tactical mandates can be purchased through the store only because it is Christmas and we want a bigger holiday party."

[novel mango]

Pay to play is falling on server 40

[fallen yoke]

GOOD JOB SCOPELY 😄

[forest spear]

I cannot possibly care less about this assault mechanic thing. In fact, only one alliance on my entire server has touched it and that was only as an experiment.
Do the right thing and abolish it.

[hidden needle]

EPIC FAIL ON THE STARBASE ASSULT! A pay only even that's an SMS, SLB, & ALB that has a reward less gives less a reward than paying for the reward in the pack for same price as the directives to play in the event. Right before Xmas. REALLY!

[novel mango]

Starbase assault for the lose!

[magic bramble]

Lost our base to the whale alliance. Not sure we can compete against 2 60s...a 59...and a 54. But hey...they got all our rss they didn't need. And we get a repair bill and back to square 1. Great mechanic scopely. Bravo.

[urban moth]

Repair bill? Back to square 1? Does it destroy your built up buildings?

[magic bramble]

It has a repair bill. Square 1 just for plasma. Not sure what the repair is for honestly. Since u know...info is not something scopely likes to give freely regarding new mechanics.

[thin void]

My alliance will be keeping our starbase undeployed for the duration. This "feature" is horrible and needs to be deleted

[stoic peak]

Player of the month is a bit of a joke, you mean "whoever isn't rep locked hostile sitting farmer of the month" right?

[hidden needle]

Also we have two different Armada based events running at the same time. This idea and rollout is worse than the last Incursions event with the PVP Franklin-A event. How about run these ideas by a player or something.

[noble citrus]

To be fair...he probably ALSO spent money on mada directives 🤣

[novel harness]

As a start, I'd just like for new event rolled out to function correctly without identifying multiple new issues that need to be resolved.

[stoic peak]

Nah he has like 400k+ hostile kills

[thorn pawn]

Congrats on another fine event 🤣
https://tenor.com/view/jon-steward-clapping-slow-clap-accepted-gif-4682275

[fleet anchor]

Our Starbase got emptied before the event started, and Scopely still hasn't posted the update explaining what it is or how it works. Wow.

[forest spear]

On the positive side, it gives me another reason to park my mantis out there to level it up... in a million years or so.
2M xp to go from one level to the next... whose idea was that?

[noble citrus]

I say that because I've also been hostile farming this entire time and I'm only at 19m lol

[stoic peak]

Do you have 7 ships farming? Constantly? Not counting augment cause that's a show. But actual faction cops

[noble citrus]

3 minimum 6 most times. Augment because not being trilocked at 44 is insanity. Still pretttttty likely hes run some madas

[rich moss]

seriously - Assault event with a pay to participate only ? dude…… 140 bucks to get 2k directives is not worth it

[stoic peak]

Big difference between undisturbed faction cops and augment bounty hunters. Anyone can stop a bounty hunter by simply warping into system, only thing that can stop a faction cop is someone else who has them as hostile. Or to kill the hostile as it spawns

[rustic leaf]

@wanton copper why are level 60 players in the same assault SLB bracket as level 42 players!?

[noble citrus]

Yes I'm aware how hostiles work lol

[sharp raven]

disappointing Event.

1. you must buy a 99€ pack on the web shop
2. only 4 players can play one assault -> starter + 3
   one assault = 200 directives
3. one player is instantly killed by the enemy base
   -> only 3 players get points for the events

how should 95% of the alliance members get points with that game mechanic. if you had enough directives you must do dozens of assaults.

[lyric quiver]

Please put the broken desealing rod converter back into the game

[foggy hamlet]

Don’t forget the only real point is to force another alliance to go mine to do their next upgrade. Whale alliances get to clear out the peons so they don’t need to bother mining themselves. Except everyone has/had a buffer built up….

[timid totem]

I thought the real point was to pad their xmas stockings with cash?

Hey, $copely, your Alliance Altruism chest is full of...!

[fading venture]

Is Scopley going to give us any info on assaults at all? Or is this yet another new feature with no explanation or direction that we basically are supposed to figure out for ourselves? @icy cairn @wanton copper communication is all we ask for, talk to us and tell us what's going on. Explain these new events BEFORE they drop, not as an after thought 8 hours later.

[deep halo]

Looking at my server eu, scopely got 300 dollars from 3 players for make unhappy 4k players. 😂🤌🤌

[slate ridge]

3 assaults I've joined with my alliance. 3 times, I was the first ship hit and destroyed before I could score any damage points.

How is anyone meant to score?

[inner void]

Terrible roll-out of Starbase Assaults: Aside from date/changed date, zero info provided prior to or during roll-out; 100% Pay-to-Play; Nobody below Ops 49 has managed to survive assaulting even the smallest of Starbase Assaults thus far; meager to poor rewards; mid-small players completely unable to participate due to limit of 4 participants, no damage = no points, no assault directives; Utter Silence from Scopely on regarding the disasterously bad roll-out. @icy cairn@wanton copper Congratulations Scopely, you have discovered yet another way to drive people away from the game.

[forest spear]

What I love about the starbase thing is that I have been waiting 5 minutes so far FOR IT TO EVEN RENDER!!!
How pathetic are your coders to allow this to happen? Have you considered hiring someone more skilled, like monkeys?

I’m a level 28. I have lvl 50s in my bracket. I’m looking at it as an SMS only event for me, lol

[gaunt hill]

Almost 4 hours after event launch, I think this image speaks for it self:

[wanton pewter]

1 unhappy server (Among all other servers who are just the same - Peeved off)

[slow horizon]

I never seen so bad designed event. First. Pay 2 Play, ok its Scopley so but a leaderboard from 10-60 is a punch in the face but then the Starbases kills the lowest player first. so if the lowest player the opener he dont get any points. You dont get any points for open in ALB and SLB

[clear dagger]

don't tell me that event is Pay2Win??? 💩

[azure canyon]

Not even pay2win, it's pay2play currently

Rev is not Scopley. Admittedly I have not watched it yet but it's not the CCs job to do Scopley's communication for them. In a normal world a CC just makes videos about the content and shows it in action, they shouldn't have to be the ones explaining it to the players.

[novel mango]

So why do I lose my shield if I am not in the assault force? That makes no sense.

[turbid coyote]

Just adding another server to the resounding MEH on this event. Can I get my medals back for all the research I did thinking you may actually manage to roll out a decent feature in a half competent manner for once? Thanks

[high wharf]

By the way, in before the next meme contest.

[gentle fox]

For the last 3 days there was an event store item for directives. Expensive, but valuable. People debated whether to spend the ketracel for it. It was removed today, and replaced by a DIFFERENT expensive but valuable item, this time for PvP. We had no idea this second item was coming, and so couldn't factor that into our decision-making over the directives package. How hard is it to just put everything in the event store from the start, so players can weigh their options?

[proven hill]

because they wouldn't be able to encourage you to buy event store points with FOMO if they did that. And neither pack is worth spit, by the way. Too few directives for the points in the first and those PvP officers are ineffective compared to Strike Team.

[jolly path]

Huh... my Altruism pack doesn't seem to have any Mandates?

[fresh saddle]

nobody is doing assault event on our server. lol. you bozos should have spent the time to fix the treasury related issues.

[rare osprey]

https://tenor.com/view/complete-failure-failure-fail-failed-messed-up-gif-13749983

[old jolt]

I’m sorry maybe i’m missing something but the whole starbase and assaults are useless to most players. I’m at level 37, will i get extra uncommon materials? No, extra lat or speed ups? No. So why would I purchase a pack. I guarantee no one will use the assaults unless an event is running. If you want us to buy packs lower the price nothing in your packs should cost £100.

[hard birch]

@old jolt all this is a new way for $copley to bill is, after all someone needs to pay the "developers" to play WoW... There is no real idea of what the star base actually does or how it benefits non lvl50 players. This is the way that $copley shows us that it doesn't respect our time or money, if I was a manager, I would've fired half the team.

[stray plover]

Give it time. Right now, it's a way for spenders to complete events. Now that it's out, give it a few months to flesh it out. Like the Mantis 🤣

[devout dirge]

I see were all really excited for this lmao.

[rapid valley]

Geez the treasury is broken again. Must be out of gorilla glue 🤣🤣🤣

[hard birch]

I wonder what the "we're sorry pay us more money" reward is gonna be...

[crude epoch]

the tactical things needed for assaults also says it should be available in alliance altruism pack, so it seems, yet it is not there.

[mystic kraken]

Can we have the espionage store back? It ended too early

[coral flume]

Ain't buying my way on the leaderboard.

[snow shell]

Had our starbase hit first thing today at reset. One player was killed outright, the SB died in round two, and all our stockpiled rss were taken, bout 62m worth between both plasmas. Was this intended to straight up take everything down to the vaults in one go?

[mint cobalt]

I like the concept of assaults, but there’s no incentive outside of an event. The strength of the most basic base can limit players who can truly participate. We have had fun with the few that folks have been able to run. Unfortunately nobody is in need of plasma.

[trail adder]

Assault is a flop. Entire server just undeployed to neuter the event.

[coral flume]

well I am sure it would have a bit more participation if the tactical mandates were available outside of purchase

[patent river]

Why provide an event...where I could and probably more in my favor just go to the store to purchase ketracel and holo cards. Attacking a station for what a single resource to use on my station? Player bases get steel, trit, and dilth .. something thats worthwhile and has several uses in game. A player base can shield. An alliance base can undeploy, so everyone's is hiding in the void and no one can do event. Makes perfect sense.. rather than have asb drop plasma....why not holo cards or tokens to be turned in in the bajor store? There should be a reason for the asb to be vulnerable. There should be pvp points involved defending the asb.

[finite loom]

Why aren’t the Tactical Mandate Directives included in the Altruism Packs like it states when you click on the ability to try and start an assault armada on a starbase?

[frail bridge]

Yes, you don't get nothing to help. You even know you just damaged your ship or blew it up. In the case if you're the weakest to do the event and get nothing for it to help you along in the game

[hushed matrix]

There is little thought put into the assault event. My alliance highest level player is 42. Our starbase was attacked by level 54+ players. What's the logic behind this? The PVP range is already too wide. Some would say undeploy the starbase. I would say why we shouldn't undeploy the game itself?

[novel mango]

The ranges for pvp and events have always been to wide.

[indigo hatch]

@trail adder man we have 1 alliance out of the whole server that is on both leaderboards because the event started 2 hours early. Basically made it where no one can do anything

[novel mango]

Seems one ship auto dies no matter whats first round insuring a person cant score….thats stupid.

[tall lantern]

@wanton copper Two things. I’m not going to sugarcoat this, the ASB assaults are a major disappointment. The fact that there was no F2P path to start off was a major bummer. Second, I have to compliment you on immediately addressing these problems in the announcements and being willing to listen to the feedback. Reading that post made me feel better and hopeful. So I have to credit communications on this. Very-well handled.

[knotty bolt]

@wanton copper @icy cairn The alliance Starbase assaults are going to harm the smaller alliances and those alliances who haven't been putting them as a priority since we as players have to much crap to do already. This should not be happening now. Wait another 6 months and give alliances time to work on their Starbase and also events that help Starbases by offering Superconductors as prizes for mining and for Starbase research. That would actually help alliances instead of this garbage that will hurt alliances especially smaller alliances.

[novel mango]

Scopley never listens why be hopeful?

[tall lantern]

Call me naive, but I think that’s what they just did. They heard us out and are making decisions to try to hear us out.

[strong anchor]

Just to add to the assaults nonsense, I was in one assault. We won. But my ship was hit by a 1.3B blast and died in the first shot of the first round.

So I have 0 points in the SLB for being the sucker who, in a winning battle, was the one who got hit by the doomsday gun. Can’t win for winning.

Really, f— this event!

[strong anchor]

Haha! No points for you!

[digital forge]

@wanton copper the “fix” to the assault sms isn’t much better. Limited pvp to three systems and only wins count. In other words, whales win regardless. At least give partial points for a loss so us “chum” food players get progress for whale feeding there 🙂

[shut wharf]

**Scopely **

"We want to thank everyone that is taking on the challenge of attacking ASBs (spending 120€ doing so as there was no other mean) and giving us their thoughts (and their €€€ for our Xmas tree)"

Why don't you thank the alliances that were kind enough to let their base being attacked? They lost everything, scored no point, and could be attacked again and again to complete until exhaustion of said 120€ mandates pack.

Right now there is strictly NO INTEREST for any alliance to deploy their bases, else than being able to analyze a battle log without spending ca$$h ...

OK one attacker ship dies first round by Chaotica's DEATH RAY ... but what is the pattern? The other attacks are WEAK, weaker than most armadas... is the BIG shot being fired again at some point? I examined a six rounds logs and no more DEATH RAY shot. Create a building in the military part that can make the DEATH

The loot amount is also ridiculously high: They take everything even without a cargo ship? Make it What you can carry with surviving ships and we'd be inclined to redeploy our bases...

How can the "feature of the month" be deployed in such a pitiful manner??? I think Q has something to do with this grade of absurdity...

[vernal isle]

Paid alpha access, and people lapped it up.

[half flare]

@wanton copper was asking for feedback on the new assault feature. Please see 0:41-0:49: https://youtu.be/qleYU99ebDU

[mild glacier]

All resources lost in the broken assault mechanic should be returned and the event should be cancelled until it can be fixed and improved. No information and no testing done at all.

[novel mango]

Happened to me twice.

[finite loom]

You are all nuts. 25 pvp wins and no losses to complete the sms event

[mild glacier]

How are we supposed to defend our starbases? There’s no shields, we cant move or undock out station once an armada starts and there’s absolutely NO chance trying to fight off multiple level 60 mega whales. This is so stupid.

[deft herald]

Basically it's just an event for 4 vs 4, biggest whales win.

[hollow pier]

Other than watching all of the mined resources disappear - I can't give any feedback on Assaults... cos I can't run any...

FWIW - the Winning Assault team should only be able to take what they can hold in their Cargo... scooping the lot is ridiculous

[mild glacier]

The way it’s setup now they’re just paying to grief the server. No starbase for anyone but the whale alliance.

[turbid coyote]

#⭐-official-announcements message < so how many people did you swindle into paying hundreds of $$ today to be your beta testers.

[novel mango]

@wanton copper so far it seems starbase assault just has people packing up their starbase.

[vale laurel]

so the ONLY was to get the directives for the assault attacks are to buy them?

[rancid marten]

Kind of messed up to want people’s feedback and then not give people a way to try something out without spending a large amount of cash in order to do so.

[vale laurel]

I agree 💯

[rancid marten]

And packing up bases seems like a fair thing to do when only those that have $$ to burn can attack any bases in the first place.

[vale laurel]

lol yeah

[novel mango]

Yes

[high wharf]

Do like we did on 37. Realta spam.

[knotty bolt]

Sever 31s involvement in Assaults Champion ALB. Aka the Biggest Flop of All Time.

[rancid marten]

Another issue is, this is an event not only for those with $$ to burn, but also those with the biggest ships. So not much more than another event for the bullies.

[novel mango]

I feel your pain.

[uneven wyvern]

For the event store there was an armada pack purchase, I didn't realize it was a short timer, was saving my event store credits in case BS ST officers were added. Any chance that pack will come back?

[shut wharf]

They will probably add new 3 days packs in event store currency till Xmas.... but all most likely different

[knotty bolt]

Seems likely. I got the Armada pack in the event store since it had good value at least for me it did.

[shut wharf]

Value is kind of "good" but nothing WoW or Xmas like imho. I passed on the armada pack and will also on the pvp one. They are OK but almost at the price of an ops 41 miner skin... It really depends on your gameplay, alliance, project.

[obtuse wraith]

“You want a drive test? Buy the car”
Meh no.

[pulsar pelican]

I’ve seen better turds in a gas station restroom…there is your event feedback!

[warm haven]

Starbase:
The lack of a meaningful cooldown (and other mechanics) means the attacker can just assault the base over and over. I was online but when trying to un-deploy after the first loss it crashed my game.
Re-launch immediately game and its already locked to the next assault again.

Mechanics need big tweaks for at least alliance levels/tiers, and cooldown.

Starbase stays undeployed for now

[gilded warren]

As quality and information to new events seems not on a professional company checklist.

[waxen marlin]

How come ppl like alliance star base raid?

[south geyser]

Those are only Those who pay to win and bought themselves thrue the game with loads of cash

[outer brook]

The assaults are even more whale centered than incursions. Do you expect people to just collect this stuff so the top alliances can grab it?

[waxen marlin]

Am a whale. And am hating it

[elder fern]

Here’s what I think would work WAY better for ASB Assaults and Shielding mechanics:

1) Attacking ASB’s shouldn’t cost directives — it should be exactly like a base raid. This encourages small alliance members to show up to defend because they can still stall the bigger ships.

2) Once an assault begins, a 1-hour timer should start that will count down to “emergency shields up.” You can’t relocate or shield your ASB immediately while under attack. To shorten the timer, alliance members press a button on-screen worth a minute. If a lot of people are online, you can shut it down quick even if you don’t have big ships.

3) You can’t shield while mining. That forces a strategy to it: “do we risk mining at night when less people are online to shut down an assault?”

Thoughts?

[iron pivot]

alliances in our server are working together to make sure as many players as possible get the solo event

[junior violet]

Still no way to do the assaults without dropping a bill? Should have rolled out the daily at reset last night.

[pure zenith]

Starbase: If you really wan't to do this - do it properly. In its current form, and with the games ... well ... less than desireable pvp mechanics in the no-group-play department, what we see is people parking 200m+ croziers in the circle, and the only real way of countering them, is to try an interception at the 10s countdown mark.

In my very humble opinion, letting a group focused attack, against a base, be up to individual 1-on-1 pvp, which easily becomes extremely skewed by power gaps, is not quite thought through. I see a few feasible alternatives:

Either implement true group play, so its possible to gang up in many-to-one attacks on bigger players, so just owning a 200m ship no longer makes you virtually untouchable (preferred, as this imho is a big issue and enables whale-bullies-with-severe-dysfunctional-ego-issues). Although this probably requires some rather large technical changes to the game, so maybe just stick to #2:

Make starbase upgradeable with defense capability in the form of its own defenses, and additional ship fleet slots. Starting with e.g. 4-8 slots which can be populated by alliance player ships - 1 ship per player - and those ships will take part in the defense. This way the current mechanics are semi-preserved, and attacking the starbase will be like attacking an armada, but the starbase can be buffed with ship reinforcements all taking part of the battle.

• May even pull all plugs, and make the attack armada size, and defense slot size unlimited - that would truly reflect the real combined power of an alliance, vs. an alliance carried by a few whales... the bigger and stronger your combined alliance power, the stronger starbases you can attack, and the harder it is to take down your starbase, as well as limiting the effect of whales.

[wicked pike]

You're missing one crucial point... they don't want to limit whale power
Whales pay their wages 🤷‍♀️

[stone quarry]

Holographic Card Recruitment is a waste. Bare minimum pulls, even after spending 24k on cards 0 chance on Max or Medium payout. Now watch Scopley will give someone a wicked payout for only spend 4k to justify that the payouts for the Recruitment are fine and dandy. I took a risk on spending some money on Recruitment specials; Never again.

[fading reef]

When are you going to fix the Orion Corvette research issue that is preventing players from completing Field training. You fixed Realta issue but replaced it with Orion issue. Support responds with no help and closes the tickets.

"Create an 'Incursions' PvP event that doesn't work right and a lot of the complainers who are mostly PvE will leave the game."

"OOH! Create the Starbase that they've been asking for! But instead of letting them dock their ships there for repairs and to exchange stuff with other alliance members, make it a big MINER!"

"Even better! Make it a target for MORE PvP, charge $100 to attack it - all the little alliances will lose everything and leave the game, unless they're REALLY invested!"

"Sounds great guys, trim the player base to half, have half the support tickets! Good work!"

That may be - but in interest of self preservation, they should consider the fact, that whales will only keep paying, as long as there is a player base of punters (myself included - no pun inteded... or maybe a little 🙂 ) to feed their ego. At the current rate this player base of punters is diminishing.

Meh, when the population of fodder decreases server merge is the answer - they get other whales to compete against and some new plankton to feed on 😂

regarding the fix on the assault sms, I don't know how many time this point is discussed here, but you seems to never learn it, so here we are again, if you do a pvp event you NEED to reward people for loosing too, or else the event will be avoided by the majority of players

[frosty stirrup]

Why is the Starbase assault event still here? It needs to go away and never come back @wanton copper If you guys were serious about paying attention to feedback, you'd disappear it forever

[noble citrus]

Does defending an assault count for the leaderboards?

[thin void]

Nope!!

[noble citrus]

Yeaaaaa didn't think so lol figured I'd ask just in case...our ally spent on it was gunna let them hit us just for the points lol

[thin void]

I don't think the Starbase Assaults feature is redeemable. It doesn't matter how many iterations you go through, you can't fix an idea this bad. Don't let a sunk cost fallacy drive you into pushing more development time into this. Just scrap it as a bad idea and move on and we will all thank you for it.

This Assult event is so stupid for F2P players can't do it you only get 20 directives a day from daily alliance help what a joke THANK YOU SCOPLEY!!!!!!!!

[glass pewter]

Still not appearing for all users in their dailies and Scopely Support just replied well it should be.

[amber lintel]

this is god awful, can't defend against the whales. F2P and low or mid spenders just can't mine plasma for a few days

How does it look like for you if you select a starbase from another alliance? I can’t see the name of the alliance and there’s no attack button either. I have already updated to the latest app version.

The star base assaults event. No points for starting so if you die on first shot you do not get the alliance rewards, even though you participated. It’s terrible.
