We’ve explained this a hundred times: don’t have events that send the entire server population to one system to do the same thing. Not only can the servers not handle the load of so many players in one place at the same time, but the system gets completely locked out and unenterable. And if that’s not the case then griefers just camp the system all day preventing anyone from doing the event.
Thanks, I took a look and can complete it for over £1,000 GBP 🤣🤣
Spoken like a real keyboard hero. Go play CoD with the Children please. 🙄
The only thing stopping you from doing this is RoE. You could just join MFKRs and have your dream come true. LOL
so on the dixon hill case 2 if the archer system doesnt count which system does? any help would be appreciated
The answer is in the correct channel for this kind of questions. The event-chat. Of better yet in #1042855078761091072
gee sorry Mac lets hope u get the similar RUDE response when you have questions!
How was that rude? I just directed you to the correct channel.
In a system with 3 letters, containing a N, U, A 😉
They changed it up for that last one because of a mixup in terms of Bev shards being given, it’s back to normal now
You complete part 2 before part 1. The part 1 disappearing in that case have been reported
@pallid sand can we have an update on the chest for yesterdays gift please as still nothing showing or an update
We have no infos yet
It's probably not ready, but I m sure eco will ping everyone when it's launched
Must be a difficult chest to create 😂😂
compensation is up for yesterdays mishap with event currency
You are on a feedback channel. There is a chat and spoilers channel you can check for event queries
Did Scopely ever say what they were doing about yesterday's 120K Snaffu?
Yes, in #⭐-official-announcements
Was there a resolution for people losing Dixon Hill quest 1 if they did quest 2 first?
FIX your Dixson Hill events please! I appreciate the effort that goes into the event, but populated servers struggle ... sure your dead/beta/test server only needs to handle 10 players, but some of us got multiple thousands to compete against.
I bet they know, but not interested in outgoing money, only incoming
@wanton copper @icy cairn
You guys being stingy with event store currency, and item availability isn't making me want to engage with the game or spend any money on it.
I'm happy to spend money when I'm getting things for it, it's like a casino - money flows when you feel like you're winning.
This event store feels like I'm standing in a bread line during the great depression, waiting for my next ration ticket to drop.
The ticket events have terrible rewards, the daily events are boring and offer very little reward. We're over 1/3 of the way into the arc and this is the most disappointing event store of the past year.
Yup, scopy acting like the pixels that cost them nothing to reproduce are made of platinum and we should be grateful for our rationed piece. Anyone with half a semester in any type of business course would know that happy customers spend more. Hell, I have bought the monthly pack every month since their gaff. (Only bought it once or twice before then, at lower ops, the value sucked) not anymore, they have gotten greedier (if possible) and more miserly and squandered any good will they got from that beautiful mistake/stroke of customer service genius. I have noticed the lowering of rewards, I am sure others have too since the gaff. You punish me with diminishing returns, and more grind. And charge me more for stuff, just to get less? Seriously, it is like they have no clue. (But they do, and what they do IS intentional. And it’s predatory)
Just don't spend cash this month, they'll take the hint if enough players say f this nonsense. That's all I do now. I'm good for maybe 200 bucks tops a month nowadays when it used to be a grand or so every month
Meanwhile, another ops 53 player on our server called it quits. Resource rewards aren’t enough to even allow them to do dailies without hours of raiding to supplement it. He finally got over the sunk cost fallacy
I’m happy with the Chateau Picard coin “make good” store. Fair enough 👍🏼
It’s hilarious because people were speculating or saying they were told it was going to be one of the most rewarding in terms of overall currency, ever.
Right now it really is low and too much is tied to slbs, and made even lower for those who aren’t dropping hundreds on a cerritos-a for those events built around it.
Mad respect for him. At ops 47 I can still operate my fleet. But I will be damned if a game forces me to be a bully. That will be the I walk full stop. Short sighted and ignorant scopy is 🙄
Take the money and run is one of their mottos. They do t care about sustainability or actual enjoyment by players. They rely on the frustration factor and the dopamine kick from buying a pack to solve a problem quickly with money people don’t actually touch and handle to spend.
If people had to sit and feed $100 a time into something they’d spend an order of magnitude less on games like this. It’s how gamblers get in trouble too, once real money is out of their hands, markers/chips are just a thing, that either builds up or gets smaller in front of them. When those chips are replaced with actual money, people risk less and stop earlier.
Dead on the money there. At least with marvel heroes I could gift people stuff. Then the rush actually felt good, not selfish 😋
The development, art, and coding team seem so inept because all the funding goes to consulting psychologists. How can they keep people paying for another month, not how can they attract more players and keep servers healthier longer.
And those people are getting out wrong so...
credit to the team for the Picard-Coins reversal options; while shouldn't have been needed it was a clean efficient option, and cheers for the swift resolution 👍
I just watched episode 8 of Picard and Legacy will not be complete unless we see Spot make an appearance! 🐱
How do the devs’ brain not comprehend the awesomely high # of researches that unlock at lvl 30/31 that results in a difference between 25-29& 30/31, and keep putting them in the same brackets as 25-29 for SLBs and xSLBs? @icy cairn @wanton copper
If they can justify leaderboard that put 29 ops with 49 ops, they can justify anything.
Just stop creating a free bracket for the 30-31 and killing the 25-29 for fun and stupidity. The March slbs were fun with the correct bracket of 25-29 - please bring those brackets back @icy cairn @wanton copper
Good thing ypu get a "fix" on the gift section armada mistake. But another unfair issue rose from the way urs was 'fixed". People could turn over the armada tokens from the coins back witch was goos. But people how where lucky and didint get it are able to get claim these too and there getting easy 120k coins as result. I find this dam unfair.
So really, what does having us kill 15 low lvl hostiles accomplish that killing 1 does not? If you had it just kill one, would've saved everyone time, lower lag, stopped system congestion, etc etc. What's the point of needing us to kill so many useless hostiles?
It's a terrible exchange rate in both directions
This seems fair...
I don't see the option for that
Me neither
It's in the event store
I don't have that, but I also didn't make the initial mistake.
Shame, I'd probably have traded some directives
Then you won’t see it
It’s only for those that bought the pack
Did you buy the pack when it was in the gift section?
No but I would gladly trade the directives for the event currency haha
Really? Armada event?
4 months of collecting rod parts and now treasury without gas? so everyone who waited this treasury as a chance to upgrade their explorers should forget about that. Its not fair. All previous months every treasury have an equal numbers of all three materials.
Just a kind heads up that as much as I agree gas would have been nice (I need it too) we haven’t had a battleship treasury either yet
and? they can add in treasury all three materials and make ore amount a little bigger like it was in first treasury runs. Now many players disappointed and wouldn't open it. All my plans for future weeks ruined. "thanks" scopely.
I agree they can add a mix and I’m sure that’s how the G3 players have it but G4 ship packs don’t have all 3 unfortunately.
I need battleship stuff so this is nice, not everyone is going to get what they want all the time. Also a bonus because its my free one
Is this treasury an error ? It seems earlier in the month than usual, or are they just mixing it up ?
It’s actually late by a day if you look at the last few launches
It usually appears this week between Tuesday to Friday
For the second month in a row that I can recall, there's a crit Armadas armadas SLB and I would like to re-iterate that I don't like there being SLB's for group activities. Armadas should be a social event, but inviting other players into your armada can let them take damage away from you and even end up beating you because of Armadas you hosted yourself, encouraging selfish play for one of the few cooperative aspects of the game. I like Armada milestones, and I'm all for Solo Armada SLB's, but I would like to request that the group armada SLB's be replaced with something else.
Why is the treasury so poor? Anyone else missing gas and explorer parts (also shockingly poor par 35m for a lv43) think I’ll give it a miss again 😩
Treasury is just as weak as BP.... No buy
Treasury is good again! It’s all about personal perspective and what you need, luckily for myself each treasury has delivered exactly what I need although some of the officers have been ropey from time to time
My personal feelings, I see the abundance of slb’s as punishment from scopy. They screwed up when they gave us all a months worth of daily tokens back in nov, and since then they have been getting tighter and tighter on the loot. They act like their product is a finite resource and dole it out accordingly instead of the free to reproduce thing it is. This is foolish for long term health of the game as it shuts down any desire to engage as most cannot compete with the wallet warriors. Scopy knows this, they have psychologist on staff (I am sure) that have informed them how best to get as much money as possible as quick as possible. Game won’t be here come Christmas. Exchange your free stuff, and stop giving them money. Enjoy the ride till Christmas. You are party to the games end run. Been a fun few years. TL:DR, scopy is fully aware of what they are doing, and every punitive arc is intended. (I have been down this road before sic Gazillion 🙄)
I see auction SLBs as a release valve and the more of them there are, the better.
They are self-balancing so that increasing their number causes the prices to play in them to decrease. Imagine how cheap they'd be if they ran daily, and how flush with their rewards we'd all be.
They also increase the content consumption rates of whales so that they move out of your brackets faster as they deplete stuff to do and develop. While a 2nd pilum can make some sense, they're not going to feel the same about a 3rd, and the draw to move on up to G5 will become stronger and stronger.
the entry difficulty of this game can be compared with eve already - i m not sure this will lead to big number of newcomers ...
PLEASE put in a Zeta Token to new currency exchange in the Apex Event Store for people that have some tokens left over PLEASE
In regards to the request for feedback about Apex changes... my first thought is that the unending string of new currencies for EVERYTHING sucks.
Can we have a separate inventory tb for stuff we're "NEVER" going to use "EVER" again
Cmon man seriously @icy cairn @wanton copper how do you expect 25-29s to be able to compete with 30/31s on damage ? Do you even realize how much power just comes from research unlocked at those levels ?? Just tell me if you bloody see 1 under 30 on the slb top 10 😑😑😑😑😑😑😑
Zeta tokens and Eclipse Heist Tokens were not exchangeable in the Store this time, due to the Arc Event. Please make it so that in this Event, there is at least something available to exchange those tokens!!
Leaderboards are never made to be fair. They are made to make certain people feel frustrated and then rage spend to solve the frustration.
Nothing about this game is based in fairness. Doubly so when it comes to events and pvp.
They did get me on the rage spend part 😂
If they ran with corresponding sms, I might agree with you. But just slb’s? They are nothing more than a money grab, there is no “release valve” of which you speak. In 4 years time all I have seen is the scores climb higher and higher not down. (And I SIT at certain levels for quite awhile watching baby whales spend past me to see how it works) They are punitive and drive away players. Mid level spenders have no chance (worse when an xlb shows up🙄). and there is NO amount of f2p “saving up” that can make it worth it, let alone win one.
Ever-increasing scores is a sign of too few SLBs for our mat income. If they flood our income with mats, the prices will also increase as we have to spend it somewhere. If they went the other way and put picriker/worf SLBs into the game every 6h, then you can be sure that the scores would drop like a rock.
Considering I just had to drop 200k points on an officer recruit that pops up at least twice a week? Not buying what you’re selling dude. Slb’s are morale killers and a wedge driven into the heart of game play. Especially when they are the major source of rewards. You recreate the world of haves and have nots. That is not fun for anyone. This is a game, not real life. But then, that’s what is intended. I understand that. They should put a gambling tag on the game in the app stores then. Because THAT is what it is, not a game, a gamble.
It's simple economics. Income is the same so by increasing the number of SLBs, the scores in them would drop. Perhaps it'd be easier to ask some questions:
How much did you spend on the last SLB you won?
How much would you spend on the same SLB if it ran every hour?
Biggest thing is people just want a consistent model. We keep getting fed multiple models of how things will run month to month and the ones people prefer are showing up less and less.
Ship sourcing, no one liked the defiant model, no one. What is the Cerritos-a? Defiant model. You get no bps free. The one good ship release people have talked about in months is the talios because people got it halfway through the month, free.
Not even getting into the event scoring and payout models that are all over the place.
Just settle on the player friendly model, and garner even a modicum of goodwill.
I never “win” an slb, so I don’t even try. (Anymore, I should I don’t try anymore, because I have Don Quixoti a couple in my day, with expected results 🙄) To do so on my server I either have to be extremely lucky, or wait (and then pay through the nose to catch the snipe hunting whales with bigger pockets) for hell to freeze over. Again, they need to just put a gambling tag on the game. Since they have pulled corresponding sms’s from the events they have made it very clear their intentions. Pay to play, or gtfo. Slb’s are for spenders only. Full stop, end of discussion. No amount of “economic bs” is going to change that. The game is for spenders. Acknowledging that doesn’t make you a bad person man. It makes you human.
They don’t, spenders gonna spend, making it ever harder on the freemium or free to play player to get even into a top ten position anymore, and having to put more and more space between attempts, meaning less content engaged with overall because of a, quite frankly, stupid engagement model. If everyone had to go into a mat spend slb with no money, yes you would see top end scoring drop and there being a better spread, this game doesn’t allow for that, and pretending otherwise is just ignoring the issue.
The assessment that they're "for spenders only" is a result of too few SLBs again. The questions posed aren't really directed toward a single person, but to all the people playing the game, f2p and whales alike. A whale that sees an auction every hour will not spend mats like he would for an auction every month. The end result is the same: reduced spending for auctions that happen frequently.
Suggesting that income does not remain stable is a stronger way to engage the argument, but it also runs into the problem that needs and resources are finite. Buying all the officers and all the ships will deplete the content in the game. Without these needs, there is no spend and again prices drop.
Every month they churn out new broken content without fixing old broken content, and the largest part of the patch notes being mission texts or graphics for missions no one has a month later results in about 3-4 people in each alliance dropping the game on established servers, monthly. People in ops 50+ are leaving, regularly, because of the inconsistent play, poor event payouts and structuring, and the complete lack of quality control, that’s the state of the game people have around them. Our servers largest slb count for the cerritos-a was 17 people. 17.
Heck of a game they’re putting out right now 👍🏾
Oh, and even if they don’t spend, income is NOT the same, the brackets are all over the place, one event I am competing with my peer group, (45-47, fair) another I see folks up to 52, (🤨 go ahead and tell me THAT is fair, I will wait.) so no, things are not even remotely fair. But THAT is another issue altogether. 😉
Run an slb every week, it doesn’t change the top scores. The heavy spenders in each bracket will still spend to secure those top spots. This is the part you are closing your eyes and plugging your ears to.
If you don’t give a decent sms alongside it, all it does is discourage the casual and non spenders from even bothering.
No, I understand what's going on. They are already running an SLB every week, and it's insufficient to remove enough mats from our inventories so our stockpiles become bigger and bigger. Simply put, run 70x as many SLBs and no one is going to spend 70x more money to win stuff they no longer need because they've maxed everything out.
I'm a returning player who decided to give the game another chance. I appreciate your honest opinions on the current problems with the game. Do you believe things will get better or worse in the near future?
You are delusional with that, I see the SAME winners, with the SAME numbers (or more) almost every slb. You are arguing with with false assumptions. Reality is different. Boots on the ground are telling you the situation and like an armchair general you are arguing what your “pieces of paper” tell you should be happening 🙄. (It’s like yelling at the wind (fixed before you had to tell me 😋) I am done with this conversation as it is going in circles. Peace dude. I am glad the game works for you. But it is most definitely not for the grunts. And as an NCO, I care less for bean counters than I do my troops.
Officer sourcing is again taking steps backwards with at least one officer from every set with little to no sourcing besides occasional packs, special ship sourcing is still really inconsistent, rewards vs rss or time investments is still on lagging behind player growth, and stability is still an ongoing issue. Take from it what you will.
You should find out the reasons you left in the first place and see if they are still a problem today. That should give you a good idea of what to expect in the future.
The goal of Legacy was to revisit things and ease up on requirements and improving them for the future. This'll be their attempt at that, and after it's done you can see if they are making any additional progress beyond what they've done in the past.
This is a weird accusation as if I were somehow not a player with boots on the ground same as you. Feel free to ask the winners of your SLBs if they would put up the same pts they did to win if the auctions instead were running 100x a day instead of once a week.
You’re just feeding his delusional bs . Just ignore him . He’s probably one of the whales defending his slb spots 😂
@wanton copper @icy cairn . While I appreciate the Apex update, it sure would be nice to know what the requirements for the new event will be before the actual event launches.
@wanton copper @icy cairn i assume the new Apex will be roughly similar to old Apex in event structure. If you're adding a weekly slb/alb, can I recommend converting these 3 systems to additional 40/45 armada spawn locations. The current respawn times for a single system of armadas would be miserable for a weekly slb/alb situation.
You’re asking them to make our lives easy . What do you think the outcome will be 😅
The opposite..
Rage quit is a better option, keep your money.
@icy cairn @wanton copper If Apex is now going to be every week can we assume that Scopely are going to fix the constant lag and bugs that occur EVERY Apex event.
- Still very possible for more than one person to initiate an Armada
- Sometimes the flag and Armada circle do not show properly meaning players are unable to join an Armada once it has been started
- On some occasions Armada targets are only visible to some people
- The lag is horrendous
As far as events go, Apex is one of the worst for bugs and lag so only having to go through it once a month was a god-send. If we have to endure it on a weekly basis now it would be nice if they would actually get it working properly
Does she actually read any of this?
They do. It just depends on how far up they can take it
@wanton copper regarding the weekly apex event I'm rather worried about the weekly Apex event, those systems get way overcrowded as it is, if they condense a three day event into one, it'll be a nightmare, are there any plans to add more apex systems especially 36 to 40 systems? those existing systems on my server are normally a pure lag fest during the monthly apex events
We are worried too and already shared it. But apex event should be quite different now, so better wait 4 more hours to see what will happen
I already have my pitchfork ready 🤫🤫
You will need it. I would be willing to bet dime on a dollar they won’t do anything with those stupid lvl 30 systems, just copy and paste. With the intent to frustrate and tick off players thinking this will drive spending. Either the devs don’t actually play the game, or they are purposely doing the crap (sending the entire server to single systems to hunt multiple hostiles) thinking it will drive sales, player enjoyment be damned. This is locust mentality. I do not have any faith that this Apex update will be anything more than a cash grab. The effect it will have will be state sanctioned bullying, whales telling dolphins and f2p to get over it, and folks just disengaging. As has been happening more and more at an increasing rate since Nov.
The systems shouldn't change, but the event yes. So wait and see
We should ask for fewer armadas, slower spawn rates and fewer systems.
Disagree, those 3 useless 30 systems should/need be switched to 40. Two systems for damage events is just dumb.
Then this update is a fail before it even arrives. This is the one unanimous thing that has been asked for, to not do so is a statement. I hear it loud and clear.
And exactly this happened 🙂
Need more systems with high lvl exchange armada targets and hostiles. Grinding every week in that nightmare when everything lagging because too many ships its not good. We're liked apex event, but without new systems and lag fixing we will hate it very soon.
Seriously guys... 1 step forward, 3 steps back. Add more muddmadas, and fix those 3 systems, and maybe add more 40 muddmadas to them. You cannot crowd an entire server into one system (Lindstrom) and expect it to go smoothly.
Lol, the slb is a nope for apex. Would have to win 4 times to get the skin people want, plus by the nature of the event no one will ever drop off the slb board like the opus grande did.
We need more systems for 40+ Eclipse hostiles....
As guessed only from f.... SLB 🤮 🤮 👎🏻
On even a halfway active server this will mean anyone with a life will never get anywhere, because unlike the opus grande events, no one will ever drop out of the slb events
SLB are just BS tbh. Especially when we have now every thursday Armada frenzy and ECP hunt. Respawn rates from ECP Armadas really sucks and Systems always totally overloaded with players hunting. More ECP systems needed and way shorter respawn rates for all armadas and make an SMS event to get this new currency! Otherwise this new Event sucks tbh. 🤔
So very disappointed with the new APEX event and the skins being locked behind another very grindy SLB meaning if you have a job, family or life you may as well not bother.
Why can we not have an SMS or tokens to cash in, even just one shard per week would do, but no, as usual you are not permitted a life AND to play this game, it's one or the other.
heist token -> box with a "chance" of contraband chips if you don't count on the SLB to get you anywhere
Just a lil Screen from the Lindstrom system. And not all arrived in here yet.
And when you need 193,5k points for Event, you don't need to even try it with just 36 and lower ECP..... when, as said above already, you have family or a job...
What's the answer to the 4 Dixon hill quest?
Great new Apex event, scopely. It's worse than before, armadas are not displayed properly - everything slows down. And why? Because you don't listen to the players, we've been telling you for years that the apex area is too small! Instead of improving it, you make it worse by giving us this rubbish every week! And again you have failed!
I can understand "killing reds" event every week for eclipse hostiles, but armada event every week? its too much. you know we all have life, job, etc. In the current high lvl eclipse systems condition this event became a waste of time. Now i will skip it, i think. Because it doesn't give me a chance for SLB place and rewards from mats packs never was a main goal. Great job with killing not entirely bad event👎
Apex in the middle of an arc squished into one day when lag is so bad that armada flags are invisible so you're just forever seeing the warning that an armada has already been started. Sterling work
New Apex event, great. Not adjusting the armada spawn rate and having to patiently wait for them to come back, horrible. Note that trying to complete these events by promoting those officers would be a fine alternative if it rained independent coins all of sudden.
I know it's been said a million times, but the Eclipse Armadas need to spawn at a rate more like the Cardassian ones. In those systems you're never waiting around for new spawns. Unless the intended gameplay is to stare at an empty screen for 15 minutes?
Who are we recruiting
Already having multiple armada starts from not seeing circles, lag is horrendous. These systems should have been expanded like the players have been asking for years ago. Compressing a 3 day event into one day of SLBs was an ignorant decision and blatantly disregards all feedback the players have given since apex began.
Its so unbelievable dumb, running out of words here.
New day, new disappointment it this game🤩
Make these system 40 and populate them with armadas and hostiles… @wanton copper @icy cairn
If you want to run Apex every week please reduce the milestones. its too much for 4 times a month. And please add some of the new reward to the sms milestones. Otherwise the most players wont have any advantage from the new store
Here's your feedback
All about the money, this way is the cheapest way for them to make new content, even it is worse than before! Our feedback is irrelevent it seems! 🤮 👎🏻
@wanton copper send the solution to scopely HQ. Is not hard... and for free....
The whole 'suggest the entire server go to one system for an SLB' situation gets old. Do better. Learn from your mistakes.
Apex is foolish to many folks 1 area
Apex SLB needs to be automatic join instead of manual. Also many of us will now be stuck with an amount of eclipse heist tokens that is not a multiple of 100, and will remain so until the end of time due to the new reward milestones
Hey scopely, FYI the opposite of Dove is Hawk, NOT little dove. Bunch of dopes.
LAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
huge llaag
@wanton copper after adding more grinding/ farming, please focus on get back montlhy incursions ( pvp players need purge day or days why not) and territory 2.0.
Territory 3.0 👀 2.0 has already been done
Eclipse armada systems are a little crowded.
This is BS. We used to be able to trade in for as many APEX Research Medals as we wanted. There was no forcing us to buy other packs that are WORTHLESS.
See, absolute soup sandwich. Get your pitchfork 😉. How did we not see this coming 🙄😋 I love when the waiter brings me something I didn’t ask for, ignores what I did ask for, and then charges me more for what I already had. And then also tells me that I only get so much this visit, come back next week. Apex is STILL a waste of time/effort/frustration. But thanks for the heavy hitter! See you in Qu’nos 🙂
New apex is nice, but need to add more systems or make the armadas spawn faster, it’s a lag fest and hard to run anything
This is dump! Why the Cooldown?! I only want the Medals and not even can spend all currencies for it!?
“Sit around and wait for armada targets to spawn” is getting old really quick
Don’t tell Candle1, slb’s are needed man, more than ever. I don’t know anyone, and I do mean ANYONE who sees a slb and goes WOOT! I hear a lot of aw f@(&!s though, and see a lot of disengaged players. Scopy killing the game ya’ll. Trade in you free stuff and get ready for the end run.
Zero reason to put 7 day cooldowns on these.
Lol, wait till you hit eco’s comments. The delusion and disconnect is real
If you say anything here against Eco or the game, your post get deleted instead 🤬
Edit: @white bramble Yes I put it in #💬-general-feedback instead 😉
Nope your message is still there. Just don’t swear
dont worry guys Rogue 2 battlepass is coming with the Stella 2.0 and all these refits wont work on it so its all for nothing anyway
So I can’t spend what I have on what I want because there is a 7 day cooldown. Change the cooldown to 5 minutes if you are concerned about the server load.
@wanton copper "this entire arc has been about efficiency." That's what you said. Then your designers release a NEW and ImPrOvEd APEX that locks efficiency of getting APEX tokens behind a timer that prevents players from spending the entire amount they earn on the thing they want. You actually took away a good aspect of APEX and added more "piss off the players" ideas.
Why did I think these new apex tokens were going to be easy to obtain? Ffs same old same old
“Congrats everyone, we are finally fixing something broken and giving you a means to unlock content you’ve missed …. Just be online constantly for 24 hours in the middle of a work week to earn 1/27th of what you need”
we rly need faster armada respawn if a event needs them... not everyone has 6 hours time to finish them...
What you mean?😅 oh missed 2.0 then 😅
I mean exactly what I said.
Territories already got an “update to 2.0” a while back it just wasn’t a very good or noticeable one.
Not TC itself
ASB’s
It's not like you can place ASBs in territory... now that would have made sense.
@white bramble @icy cairn Why on earth would you have to click "join" for SLB ????"? Got online. Thought apex was same. Joined armadas. Went to faction store. Got Officer shards. The. Ooops. No points. Have to join? That’s just idiotic
Seriously Scopely? You‘re making everyone excited by going „Oh, we’ll make the game more efficient for you! Behold, the newly revamped Apex event!“, and then you bring - of all possible things - an SLB?! Really?
No one is excited about SLBs. No one. Get that into your heads please.
What a letdown once more…
The epic fail you mean? Sorry but armadas with 4 slot in eu server where almost all servers are dead, with 3 decent allieances where 90% avoid pvp is not what is needed. Territory, the first for everyone was best period in game.
@white bramble @icy cairn Seriously. Lindstrom is a congested nightmare with huge lag. Event was not smart at all. Poorly planned. I’ll conceived.
Correct, that’s why I said Territories, not TC 🤩 We did get an update to Territory buffs/services a while back, this I consider that to be Territories 2.0.
@white bramble @icy cairn Lol. 6 days to redeem 100 Z tokens. 20 day timer. 1200credits. Lol
Apex event issues still remain i.e. theres nowhere near enough armadas to go around (especially in the lower levels) - this and the respawn rates basically make this event into "who can get an armada started" since there's never an ability to start armada after armada when you have these events running... 😦
You don’t need to tag me and Bek in on every post. Leave your feedback here. It will be read and passed on
it's difficult to kill armadas when you can't even join them because of missing armada circles. that's the event feedback you need right now.
APEX ... how about you fix it instead of making it a thursday week event ... or are you just wanting to bend everyone over on a thursday? sacked all the real programmers? i heard you can use the website FIVERR to get some freelancers.
Why is there a limit for medals in the Apex Event Store??
Any hope of increasing armadas/ reducing timers for apex? mild suggestion
What a horrible attempt at updating an event. From 3-days to one, but keeping the same amount of expected activity to complete events. It's more grind with less time to do it, not efficient at all.
I barely even bother with this game anymore, and crap like this is why.
This "efficiency" theme is a failed marketing strategy; the Titan-A was a flop; this Apex update is missing the mark; and to cap it all off the lag and game stability is in the drain...why should we keep playing? The whole game experience is like a C grade, at best.
Missing the 45 epic.
and P.S. the server seems to be so bogged down that I cant even join an armada I started 😦 This seems like an unhelpful way to start the newly redesigned event structure.... maybe you can start looking at load testing the application please????
you really need to scale up the rep in this event based on player's current reputation ... when you need 10 mil to reach the next milestone and get a grand total of 360 thats quite a big difference
Yup
How about instant respawn or making a few more high level systems for this.. my god
Feedback:
Fix this 💩
But since neither one of us (or, I assume, everyone) is surprised ... we'll take this, again. And the same complains go on for years now, new "content" with only one highest system, any time a cerritos, a cerritos 2.0 (Defiant) or Cerritos 3.0 (Titan) comes up, whatever.
A revamp of the apex series of events that only added a new currency and a SLB, with no additional higher level systems, seems short sided. Also no update to the main Outlaw store, or an increase in Outlaw rep level, also seems like a missed opportunity. I haven't maxed my M level yet, because it doesn't seem to matter.
@brazen oyster also this system is laggy an overcrowded half the armadas are started but we cannot see that they are due to lag, even grinding the hostiles is laggy and many ghost hostiles floating across the system
Same here ofc @supple coyote . No matter the event, sending a whole server for a longer period of time than say 2-3 min result in the same laggy pile of ... but reoccurs for years. Starting with unplayable Territory Capture stuff (which is literally dead, as are assaults on starbases... ah well).
On server 156 multiple players, including myself, cant see any running eclipse armadas (an old bug that is still not fixed) That means, many cant do the event
So slb currency is only usable to buy hijacked ships. What's the point? You can't scrap them.
And Assimilated Stella and Opus Grande Stella
I believe the lack of visibility on that is part of the issue. Assimilated is only visible if you have one at T9 and Opus Grande is only visible if you don't have it. It doesn't feel like enough was done to make people aware of the new event and the changes to it.
Heavy hitter SLB is once again impossible for win do the ops levels. Aim ops 52 so aim stuck using g4 ships. But still i need to compete against ops 59 with g5 ships on damage points.
Suggestion to get rid of this timegate. Event pays out more than can be spent and the RSS packs are a waste.
It’s only for this week. Patience - it will be unlimited soon
Game is unplayable missing armadas and bad lag
Maybe they should be working on Exchange Armada problems before rolling out a whole new dynamic on Apex events... reminiscant of Incursions... but the Apex/Exchange armada problems havent even been acknowledged by anyone at Scopely yet. 😦
and p.s. this new contraband coin seems worthless unless you want to build YET another ship which seems exactly like the faction ship it was hijacked from. My $.02
If only there were a forum for Scopely to communicate that to players instead of waiting for complaints/concerns... 🤣
Personally, I think that they believe its cheaper and more cost effective for them to just let the vocal minority complain and let everyone else just sit not bothering to do anything about it because its such a pain to get anything changed for the better around here.
Now that the eclipse heist tokens are full redeems in the final milestones (and presumably will remain this way), can we please get a chest for partial redeems either this week or next, as one last opportunity to spend leftovers?
I just read that the PI 4 event rewards were doubled, but that was posted at 1:30pm EST. I completed the event before that time. Were the rewards doubled as of the start of the event at 12pm noon EST, or at the time of the announcement? (looking at my rewards for PI 4, they're the same as the others - 1500. So, are you sending those credits through?)
The faction gains for this event are ridiculously low
buona sera---Quiz Nr 4 = ??
Look in #1042855078761091072
You'll take the +90 and you'll like it!
256k to the next level and they give me a measly 90 x 4 🤣🤣🤣🤣
honestly... I dont want to gain Rogue Rep.... I dont want my cost to refine to increase... 😦
What I do want... is for them to decrease the 3 day timers to spend RSS
Of course, most of this could be avoided by have a group of players that are not just made up of lvl 40+ whales that you include in your beta testing to validate that assumptions are right. I've concluded that scopely arc runners exist in an echo chamber full of yes men who tell them their ideas are great and they never hear the feedback that they eff'd up.
@wanton copper @icy cairn I'm all for changes to Apex - it's been way too long coming. But the game issues such as lag, armada spawn rates, and generally not enough armada/hostile systems really takes away from what you guys were trying to do to make Apex better.
- Add extra systems
- Add higher than lvl 40 hostiles and points for the events that make sense
- Fix the armada spawn rate
- Fix the lag.
I mean, honestly, who runs an event that offers 90 currency rewards, but only allows you to spend 60 (on the only worth it item) and then puts a 7 day cooldown on that purchase? Thereby limiting the only efficiency gain offered by the APEX events. Raise your hand if you're an arc runner - because you did this. After your CM proclaimed that this arc was all about improving efficiency. One step forward, two steps back.
Why is the amount of crystal doubled in those new chests compared to ore and gas?! Makes absolutely no sense!
It always is in everything not just this event store 🤫 or else they will reduce it down to useless amounts like gas and ore
To sum it up: apex was bad, and having it now every week is worse!!
Yes this 👆
No good doubling the points if we can’t actually play the game
I gave you a 100 on this one, because it's my concern as well. They're eliminating two currencies. I have 60 and 25 of them leftover where it seems they are below the minimum prices of anything. It would be nice to exchange these for something.
Sorry Scopely, I really don't get it. Apex was "fine" during the Arc breaks - now you condensed it into a weekly occurance that manifests as an armada fiesta.
You were trying to lower screentime and daily tasks, yet you introduce a weekly SLB that negates all of your efforts. A weekly installation should -NOT- have a SLB attached. It should have an easy to complete SMS that gives you the new currency, so you can work towards the store items.
i just noticed... the apex event store closes the same time the SLB rewards, including contraband tokens!, are handed out?
so you have to sit on your contraband tokens for a week not being able to get your reward if you win them in the SLB?
I'm fed up of events today - 1 armada event, OK - annoying mid-week, but 2 different armada events - and with the lag you get in eclipse space - it's ridiculous! I'm so annoyed by the lag, I'm ceasing to care about the events at all.
Love the new apex. Need more systems and less lag. 🖖 don’t tweak anything. Just double what you offer now. 😁
Other than lag.
For those with maxed outlaw, what good is the rep?
For absolute nothing
The rewards were supposed to be doubled for the fourth trivia event. Instead of 1200 I guess it was supposed to be 2400. I got nothing for completing the fourth event. I did get the shards for doing all four missions but again, nothing for completing the fourth mission. Wtf
Diminished returns, nothing else. Just like everything in this game, they punish you for advancing, and other players punish you if you don’t advance. One of the things I wish I had friend who played this before me….I would have passed it by. Now I am in till closing because I unfortunately cannot look away from a dumpster fire 😂
The rewards were not doubled, the pts were. Doubling the pts allowed players to finish the meta event even if they missed pts from an earlier case.
So you double the points and we lose the 1200 coins, I did not need the points since I did the events in order, so I just lose the coins. Really
APEX SLB brackets have way too many ops levels in them to make the rewards meaningful.
You should have received all the rewards from the contributing events (1200 coins in each) and the full officer unlock from the meta event. If you think you weren't awarded the coins, you can contact CS and ask them about it.
Don’t worry, the same folks will dominate it next week as well, and the week after that, and then after that. But worry not, we hear you. MOAR SLB’s!!!!! 🙄😋 just git gud! (Translation, spend more 🤮)
Turn the SLB into SMS, as said above already "Weekly Events shouldn't have SLB's". And lower the milestones! This is hilarious already to make it weekly with Armada frenzy events.....
What is the wisdom behind the Join button in the APEX SLB? I missed it in the morning and wasted a ton of score
Just finished engaging with the refreshed apex event tonight…..LOVE the revamp, in a nutshell there isn’t anything you can’t like HOWEVER….. 2 massive flaws in this revamp and WE the players have been asking for these 2 issues to be addressed…well actually I can’t remember how long cos that’s how long we have been asking for it…..NUMBER 1 issue laaaag, jeeze as if the event reset isn’t bad enough to deal with the lag that comes with apex every single time it runs makes the game extremely hard to play, you have invisible armadas, armadas you can’t join, armadas you start but suddenly they have already been started by someone else a minute earlier….and now we get enjoy this lag feature weekly instead of monthly 😒 NUMBER 2 issue…we need MORE apex systems, a whole server of 100s & 100s of players squeezing into 2 systems 😖 if scopley fix these 2 issues out alone then boom you have one of the best event revamps you have ever done!!!
Did I read right that new apex is going to be weekly? All these armada events are getting old.
This game seems to punish you for leveling up with more and more grind. I have a feeling I might quit this game somewhere around 35-37. I am at 31 and every level I go up I feel disappointed. The event bracket change around 28 or 29 almost made me quit already.
31s are still in the 25-29 bracket for most of the slbs 😂 I do agree on the grind part though , but looks like the freebooters can help wit that
On the rebooted apex; what is the point of choosing your rewards with the trophy’s if we’re restricted to 2 of each ore, gas and crystal? We used to get up to three of each and you’d have to actually choose. Unless there are new apex research nodes coming out and need the medals, I lease let’s us make the choice not just the presentation of your choice.
Apex SLB every week without fixing the problem of not enough armada targets, lag, multiple starts on the same target resulting in lost directives, etc, etc? Worst addition to the game I’ve seen yet. Count me out.
Why does the Apex SLB require me to click JOIN? Multiple people in my alliance (myself included) didn't realize that and ran multiple armadas and got no points. Since it doesn't take any tickets to join, why would we not just auto-join it. Please change it next week so we don't have to click join.
I really like the refreshed Apex event. This one’s an A+ from me 🤙🏼
The new Apex event is neat.. not hard to complete, and the refit sourcing is a nice change.. but adding that event without fixing the armada/system lag is kindof a two-sided coin. Ok sure, people have to fight over armadas (scarcity leads to pvp leads to packs), but there are so many ships in the Exchange systems that I can barely operate due to lag. So, cool event but it relies on occupying systems that become extremely difficult to do anything in because of the lag.
Probably beating my head against a brick wall if it hasn't been fixed by this point, but can something please be done about the brackets in the Heavy Hitter events? There should be a bracket break at each combat ship level upgrade. 45s shouldn't be in the same bracket as 46s. 41s shouldn't be in the same bracket as 42s. Each time you reach an ops level where you can get a new combat ship you should be in the bottom of that bracket, not the top of one with people who don't have access to those ships.
Thank you for making the apex slb weekly . I personally welcome it , and I believe so do several others who don’t have the skin yet . Instead of fighting over armada seats and slb once a month, we get 4 chances in a month now . The people who already have the skin get more loot from the events too !
@queen kindle Quick question... Was it intentional to leave out Borg solomadas from heavy hitter event? I find it odd that FKR madas count, and Borg hostiles count... but Borg (x10 points per crit damage dealt) armadas don't. Oversight, maybe?
Sounds more like FKR armadas shouldn't count than adding stuff in that's not on the list.
Soloing a lvl51 epic FKR armada gives something like half a trillion points (obviously can vary a bit).
I just thought it was odd one type of armada counted while another didn't. Oh, well... At least I know for next time not to waste the warp time on BSAs during Heavy Hitter.
LOL.... with the changes to the Apex events... now anyone who can see (and complete) the apex events can see the rogue faction... and start down that journey as well... 🙂
I.e. it used to be that you had to complete a ton of Mudd based missions (from, I believe, the augment faction) to get some Rogue reputation..... and now it just comes every week 🙂
I believe this is the mission chain, but dont remember what triggers it: https://stfc.space/missions/16899892
That has never made sense.
Cooldown timers on the new apex chests for the event are seriously bad/lame. Pop 2 chests and see you in a week (timer.). Whatever
those chests arent there to give us what we need when we need it... they are there to give us what scopely wants us to have on a regular basis... i.e. typically I burn through crystal as fast as I can get it... Ore.. not so much... Gas some times... but Scopely still wants us to only be allowed to get the premiums in trickle feeds... 😦
It's like Saladin BP shards.... Now that I maxxed my Sally, I started getting lots of Saladin BPs by grinding Romulan Reputation... Granted, it wouldnt be possible until I maxxed the Sally, because I have a feeling they only drop on LVL 38+ hostiles (and likely only in Federation space) but all these are guesses.
Please give us more Borg officers in the Event Store. All players who are not yet ready would then also have a benefit. You already have Hugh in so why not Borg Jaylah or 6 of 11 for example.Please give us more Borg officers in the Event Store. All players who are not yet ready would then also have a benefit.

Can’t compete in this event at all it’s so laggy. Aramadas are showing up as though nobody’s attacking them but you get a warning when you try to start one. Every aramada I’ve tried to start in the past hour has failed
People are calling out in alliance chat to join, and there’s arguments about players getting booted from the armada because the messages aren’t being delivered and nobody can see them
Complete disaster as always
is any other plan to fix this full-day lag? like, autocomplete all today's dailies? really hard to kill hostiles and all events
I would have to apex is most foolish event ever posted new currency contraband chips only good for few new skins or hijacked ships , hijacked ships are worthless to any over level 35 and even if you win 1st place slb not enough contraband chips to obtain new skin! Redundant event that caused super latency do to lack of high level apex madas!
The Apex update is just scopy giving us things we didn’t ask for, not giving us things we DID ask for, and doing a pisspoor job at both. EPIC FAIL. Not giving more 40 systems and fixing lag and spawn rates, this event wasn’t just DOA, it is radioactive waste and will perpetuate 🤮🙄 (and other than candle, NO ONE wants more slb’s! Cut that crap out. Damn sure don’t want them every dang week 🙄)
Convert those top 3 Exchange systems into higher level Hostiles/Armadas. Also, keep Data mining and Rogue Recruits as part of the scoring.
If we're dumping Zeta tokens why does this have a ridiculous cooldown?
I have 600 to spend still.
so that they may clog the system forever
SNAFU
I have 85….guess I’m going to be stuck with those forever 🙄😂
Nothing we're not used to 🙄😆
All too true 😆
Apex brackets are WAY too wide. I shouldn't have to spend hours on armadas just to place in the top 50. Seriously, my bracket is 40-49.
Armadas that take credits and disappear - thanks Scopley 😩
So the last time the de sealing rod chest was offered I had enough parts to unlock…. I waited for a better chest, now I don’t have enough parts?! Is this a use or lose type thing !?!?
If you use the broken parts to get a desealing rod, it's use it or lose it. Broken rods themselves are not use it or lose it. Double check in the recruit store to see if you can unlock your desealing rod there. Should take 4k.
Broken parts carry out, not the desealing rods. If you convert your broken parts in a rod, but don't use it, it's lost
You can try to contact CS, see if they can give you back the broken parts
I don’t know if I converted, and it does not state that anywhere in the description…. That’s BS that it’s use or lose without being stated - I’m so done. Of course they will want pics so they won’t help. The only way to get help in this game is record your gameplay 24/7.
Please dont run another apex event until you have fixed the issues
It would have been nice to co-ordinate the fleet commander event earlier....So now it looks like we will get to kill more Apex today.
A regular SLB for Eclipse Armadas is the fastest way to get me to stop engaging with the Outlaw loop. Please either remove the SLB, remove armada scoring from the SLB or fix the myriad of issues with competition for armadas
You don't have to participate in the SLB
The store is down…and there is a store event 😂
unable to log in to webstore
Maybe I wants to play the game however he is tired of the Scopley BS that prevents the game from being enjoyable. If you like fighting the known issues good on you. Others may want to play a game as intended
If you're going to make us use the webstore for an event might want to buy some extra hamsters so it can actually be used....
Eclipse 2 days in a row boring running 2 days in a row . How about introducing stella pvp all them blues there that would be fun!
Can someone please explain wtf this is? If it is the webstore crap, you are a bunch a tools for this 🙄
it is the webstore officer key thing
I just logged into the website with no issues...
@wanton copper , @icy cairn Perhaps the existing problems should be solved first!! Chaotic Apex event due to respawn time of Eclipse Armadas. Too few systems for entire servers. And I could go on until morning!!! Again Eclipse Hunt , very Intelligent and Impressive!! Congratulations Scopley. 🤮🤮
I'm just saying you literally have to join it or not. 🤷🏻♂️
<@&509690795536941056> can you please put the ticketed events back where they used to be, to the left of daily events, so they aren't so easy to miss? After years of them being in the same spot, now they're somewhere else...
you log into the webstore and claim the free key
So what are we supposed to spend our Apex Contraband coins on?
Opus Grande, Assimilated Stella and Hijacked ships
Next time please ask questions on #🌌-galaxy-chat . Feedback channels are for feedback
Already have the first, don't see an option to buy the second, third is worthless. Any thoughts on why I'm not seeing an option to buy the Assimilated Stella skin?
And this is feedback... the loot isn't worth the effort. Need more options to spend coins on.
Edit: while I appreciate the response about the T9 Stella, every other response I get from you is condescending. Why is that always a prerequisite for mods on this page? Waiting for the delete on this because heaven forbid someone say something negative about a mod.
Second comes when you have a T9 Stella
Your feedback didn’t say that though. So no the original message wasn’t feedback. It was a question
Also the three salvager refits
Ahhh. Ok I don’t see any since I own them
More eclipse hunting after 24hours solid of eclipse? Variety is nice
I'm clearly missing something here... Where do the mission keys come from?
Nevermind... my brain finally got some caffine.
what a dumb event this mission key thing is..earn? LOL
@wanton copper Was this intentional to put an unannounced limit on the research medals when you still have more that you earn per week and can spend this event? There was no limit from previous events...id rather have the medals for research til i max those out...
The limit is only temporary, it will be removed in future
Was this announced? I don't see anything officially indicating that.
You can earn them. One daily from the web store…
Another event with Dukat shards, which is great, but when are you going to offer the other strike team support officers, mainly Damar. Other than the main arc there has been no sourcing for him at all, not even in a pack
yea, ima solo tho, so its not worth anything to me..
Not announced, just being passed on from us
I do, but not “everyday”. 🙄. Some days I just don’t get near a pc. 🤨
you can do it on your phone too, doesn't necessarily have to be on your computer (not in the app just on your web browser)
Why do you have the events schedule starting 1/2 way though the day (noon - eastern)
Ugh, you’re right, I just hate screwing with websites on my phone. 😋
Would it matter when it reset? You still have 24h in your day
It's actually surprisingly mobile friendly
The mission keys give you crew shards, has nothing to do with being solo. They’re free 🤷♂️
The numbers to kill required for the FC Seven of Nine Eclipse hostiles is crazy. Just got done an apex even with eclipse and its way more to kill than Apex required
https://tenor.com/view/confused-john-travolta-pulp-fiction-lost-where-gif-5377106
Waiting for event store additions like John Travolta @wanton copper
Boo!!
Away team events too close together.
Don’t have enough speedups left to complete the free BP event.
Use Trait xp
How does one Complete this Event in 6 days when 1 Key drops every 15 days or so? Or in this case every 7days. This event is illogical.
PC Version you get another every day under webshoo
Webstore key drops daily
Don’t need PC version
i have a brilliant idea - why not make event where you have to play another game - its double profit - ppl will be happy without the need to endure the lag and bugs and devs will get money for promotion of another game !
Wow clearly another pay to win event since you can only get 1 mission key a day. There is no way to get these since in 6 days you can only get 6 way to go and screw people scopley
that's the alliance milestone. 7 days should mean 8 or 9 keys a person, but even at just 7 that's 36 players doing it to finish it.
It's not pay to win as you cannot buy mission keys
Let me know how you can pay to win that one. Last I checked it was the most f2p event in existence
If the Web Store is the same as the Android store; with the exception of the daily Mission Key, why make it difficult for the player who only uses their phone to play? Still not a feat well thought through.
It’s not the same
A mobile phone has a web browser. You can open the web store on that
Well in that case ain’t no one going to score 6 days means 6 mission keys yet to score you need 24 mission keys at least since I made it 1 to 1 talk about someone not being to bright there. Since in 6 days you earn a maximum of 6 keys . 7 if you count the other drop which you get ever 5 days.
You can get 7 keys 8 if you are lucky
That event is an AMS so you need 36 people to participate every day and you get MS4
Point is it should be a daily thing for Android players anyways if it's like that in the "Web Store". So that's my feedback on that event.
Point is at 1 point per a mission key it is impossible to sore to get anything.. from the free drop that you get in recruitment it’s once every 5 days and web store is once a day that means in total you’ll get 6-7 mission keys which means 6-7 points. Not enough to even score one the first teir that says you need 24 points. Dumbest event ever 30000x worse then the Tribble’s event ever was.
As @white bramble pointed out above you...you are referring to the alliance milestone event. The solo milestone is 7 points to finish, and if you time everything right, you can get 9 points in 7 days.
IOS users exist?
You will get 7-8 points with full participation for the SMS
If your alliances participates you will get ALL 250 points. Read up what 3 people have already told you repeatedly
Hey!
Ikr!!
😂😂😂
I actually ran into a similar situation, i'm 40 short now. Support basically said I'm sol.
ah they refused your begging lol?
The maths works out to how they wanted it to. So CS wouldn’t help in that situation
Did they change the number needed to unlock?
no always been 4k, but i could've sworn i had enough to unlock it this time, but alas 40 short
@white bramble Thank you for all that you do for this community. I have seen that you help out with a lot of people's problems/issues on this server. It does not go unnoticed.
I hope you have a great day today.
Stop bracketing 53s with 59s. <@&509690795536941056> how are we supposed to compete? Why would we bother when we know we'll lose?
although i fully agree with your post.., having just 2.3T points... you didnt even try 🙈 🤓
Its the same here, the players with a good tier level 56 ship dominate
25th is double my score. I was 28th when I went to bed. That's now 3.9T. Those are all held by 55+
Still, i did 18T easily with my Pilum 🙂 Hugh is required though.
Straight unfair bs when the event says regular (which means uncommon) yet the uncommon doesn’t count. This is straight unfair trying to force people to buy rare and epic armadas since no one has rare and epic armadas. Put the armada events back to counting uncommon, rare and epic !!!!
Your pic worf/riker sms is an insult and joke. 8 shards of each. 16 total. For speciality officers who are hamstrung in their abilities.
You are no longer out of touch but you are also insulting.
If you cant find good officers to create more of, then create a generic recuirt token, used for any officers, and use them as the carrot so players can get shards for ANY officer they want.
You are driving players away. The game is not getting better but worse. I do hope next month you have a much much better arch and officers we fight for. These are crap.
Regular means uses the normal epic and rare directives. Mat spends never use uncommon directives as points. It’s always mat spend + rare and epic directives as secondary scoring
Has anyone seen the other 3 Horseman of the Apocalypse? I ask because we actually have 4 events overlapping with synergy today. All joking aside, very nice event lineup today Scopely. This is a win
I honestly don’t complain here much, but this is ridiculously insulting. 8 shards?!?!?!?!
Honestly, several days of armada events in a row, again. Players have been telling Scopely forever that this isn't fair to us. You don't give us any source for building those fast enough to do all of these, without dropping $99 every time. You're repeatedly dismissing our concerns and suggestions. Give us sourcing: add as rewards to events or to the dailies. Or guarantee a few rare/epic with each credit pull. Something.
Missing the Cosmic Cleanup store. Anyone else have this issue?
Check back in 5 minutes
Not scoring properly, it reads any armadas I killed 7 lvl 35 jemhadar armadas yet I only got a little over 700 points where I should have gotten for each one over 2,000 points as you can see from the list
It gives you a list in the description of what scores
it would be nice if this would either let me buy more than one at a time or show me how many blueprints I have already; ideally both
Appeared now thx. 👍
just noticed it's showing up in the claim section at least, which does help a lot
Yes it gives but saying any armadas counts all armadas. “Any” is a key word in compositional writing which means dominion counts as well as any other armada. You want specific you can’t use the word any.
It’s not a single word. It’s a whole line. That is what counts. Take it how you want
As you can see it says armadas targets any, that any means you can not exclude armadas. Learn what written words mean
Dude just give it up and move on . This is scopely . They don’t care about what works , you’re worried about what they wrote lol
It’s because they don’t understand that the word any litterly means all. They need to look up the definition of any.
Do you know how to read whole sentences? I don’t see a full stop after any.
What they wrote is fine. It’s just general lack of reading what’s in front of people that’s the issue here
During event stores, it’s become common to add late additions (like officer or armada packs, etc). Since they launch randomly, and sometimes go lives aren’t always a consistent hour, I’d love a section in the event store for ‘limited time offers’. Just a folder, the same way there’s one for officers and one for ship bps, etc. With a dedicated placement for new arrivals, expiring offers, I could check and confirm if there’s anything new, or be certain that I’m not going to miss anything. Thanks!
Actually writing isn’t fine it’s a failure ,that will get a barely passing grade in comp1 and in business would get them sued.
Learn to read. Your history on this server is so funny. You whine about the most obvious things that would be resolved if you knew how to read. That event has ran 1000's of times since you have been here and it has never changed. I find it funny you have an issue with it now. Go touch some grass
Are you familiar with how text wrapping works? Because Federation/Klingon/Romulan doesn't fit directly after "Any" It's wrapped to the next line...
So why is it that Thursday had really demanding events, 2 Armada SLBs and HeavyHitter, but Saturdays events are done in minutes??
Seems very strange to me to make us play hard on a work night but nothing at the weekend??
Regarding the "Armada targets: Any" issue.
"Fedaration/Klingon/Romulan" is too long to fit on the line so it is dropped down to the next line. Basic rule of writing. Don't leave widows and orphans, put it on the next line if it doesn't fit. 🤦♂️
I mean.. in his defense of the writing part, nowhere in the sentence does it mention rare or epic or Uc , just which things count.
Also, If my memory isn’t failing me , I think at some lower levels (20-25 or was it 15-19?) common mats and Uc armadas counted as well for the events
I do agree it’s run a zillion times and the content is always the same so I don’t see a reason you need to worry about what’s written over there - that’s why told him to move on
This is the hostile hunt bp event, not the spend event. All grades of armadas always count in this.
<@&509690795536941056> while I like most of the updates to the Apex event and especially the fact that is a weekly event, there is one major flaw. I will never not have 75 tokens leftover now since the SMSes only ever payout 100 at once in the final milestone.
Is there anyway that Scopely can do something about this?
Since Apex will now be a weekly event there should be a ban on exchange and eclipse related events.
Max 1/2 blueprints for the good ships like amalgaman is BS. Cant buy the other half so 5 weeks of cosmic cleanup. So we can buy full ship with other junk, but cant buy even tropheys (same cost) and buy the full ship?
- Refits in this store are insanely expansive
- Not much event store currency we are gaining as we used to from previous arcs as i recall
- And too much missing from the store such as Old fleet commanders ( Kirk, Spock, Locutus) , and refits we had before like glas for feesha (ok i might overlook that since it came out just recently) but polaron beam is over 2 months old now
Can we get tiny improvements before this arc end? 🤦
this - i have a permanent 4 extra rogue event trophies and 25 eclipse heist tokens
It’s a formatting error. Whoever wrote the disclaimer didn’t know how to format. 🤷♂️ (though yes, scopy does lots of shady stuff, many of which should absolutely get litigated. However, as they are a corporate entity and have a LOT more money then us, the courts will side with them. That is just how works. The rich protect each other and punish the rest for having the audacity for exposing them.
Besides the lag and bad armada refresh rates or wasted systems that have been mentioned ad naseum in this and other feedback places, the event suffers too from simultaneous starts without warning. Except now, they stack one team with a 7:30 timer versus a 7:00 timer. I sent three tickets pretty much the minute they happened for time stamping in chat and showcased the two timers. Support said I got credited for wins with my delayed start, which I can attest very much didn’t happen. I suppose now I have to actually video record my screen now for when the other team blows up? Or when an armada disappears and continues to count down for nothing to happen.
Seems pretty silly to rework the apex for every Thursday and not even update the rewards to contain g5 materials
They should do the event for territory , where people get more points for dropping and picking back up and shuffling around territory again.
since scopley hasnt actually detailed what armadas count for todays Riker event, does anyone know what armadas count????
I would say either 1 of 2 things
- FKR
- Armadas that used the standard directives
thats kind of my assumption there, but was hoping Exchange counted as I really need rares to tier up.. 🙂 thanks for the suggestions as Scopely tends to be kind of vague until people ask and considering its a weekend no one usually would be around to update the event for better accuracy. 🖖
I just did an exchange and it counted
Thanks
Any armada, solo armadas included
confirmed on Exchange armadas...
Both of the event store special packs this month have been awful, do better 👍
Burial armadas cheapest and easiest
<@&509691205798592532> please let scope know syndicate Event with Picard is still needed for some players that are missing 1 or 2 shards.. 🙏
If we're to have big armada sms like these, the cool down/respawn overhaul that lower fkr space got needs to be replicated in DS
They also need to add more armada levels since people with a g5 rare can solo everything worthwhile.
Absolutely this!!
I truly don't understand why they still haven't done this. I mean, we don't run that many now because they don't respawn.. Much more packs would have sold if people could actually run them 🤷♂️
I’m pretty sure I can solo a 50R with a Pilum at this point, only the 51E hurts too much 🙈
G5 armadas are definitely needed
And G5 packs as well... And upgraded G4s. the only reason i open G4 rares is cores.. otherwise i'd just stick with G3 rares for the directives for epics. not much rewards besides the cores
Getting our multinational alliance members to understand that there are more frequent mission keys in the web store, has been a massive pain. The fact that the in-game event description offers no details/links is ridiculous. Handled very badly
No more clear the coast please.
<@&509690795536941056> Another Clear the Coast Event? What is this like 5 days of Eclipse grinding in 1 week? Give us a break, please.
No more eclipse grinding please. At the very least, add many more hostiles if we have to do this, and please a right ahead and fix the stuck ones that we can't clear...
The great Picard is not scoring.
Did I read the Picard rewards right, 12 shards a pull but 35 in the pool? 😖
?
You confuse me
The picard memory chips have 36 officer displays; each time you open the chest you will get one of those displayed officer rewards. There are 12 officers, each in 3 quantity options, but you only get one officer in one quantity per chest (along with the chance of some ship blueprints). For example, my reward was just 3 worf shards and nothing else.
scopley ❤️ GJ. you listened and made the picard quiz event such a joy to do, very well done.
Realta PvP starting on a Monday is frustrating because on Mondays I tend to have relocated to a higher warp system and have miners in token space, which prevents me from being somewhere where my Realta can actually fly in. I appreciate that there's a non-PvP option and it runs more than one day so I can complete the event, but if it started any other day I'd be able to actually try the PvP part, which would be nice.
Yes, those things are some of the absolute worst ripoffs scopy has ever offered. They absolutely play on a gambling mentality and should be labeled as such. I would not recommend buying them. I made that mistake with an earlier type, these are no different.
In many counters “loot boxes”, “packs” are legally required to show the chance you have to get and item and are considered gambling legally.
I let my alliance know to skip those packs. I'm sure others are doing the same thing
been banging around romulans all day with a kehra but only 3 points in the interceptor event?
Are you attacking them or letting them attack you?
They can’t do that or they will be thrown out of the App Store, Apple will never allow an in game link to their web store.
Really? Picard day chest without OG picard?
The weekly mission key drops do not count towards the event, why not?
They do
I got one this morning it didn’t count for solo event, didn’t notice if it counted towards alliance event
I have a feeling they have excluded the weekly one from SMS intentionally but it definitely scores for the AMS as it did last time
I should be able to see in 13 hours what it counts for, lol
Anyone else stuck on a trivia question for the Picard Trivia Event? I know someone who is stuck on question 3. Would the next two questions be available for them at Event Reset or in 5 minutes?
Nevermind! Question 4 showed up after they recalled a ship. Strange.
If its the mining question, the ship need to be moved from the node to register it
He will have to do the same for question 4
At least you have the questions... I have completed Trivia 1 and 2... nothing else has populated... yes I started the app again, yes I cleared cash, and all my cookies and history delete anytime I close a browser... I would put in a ticket, but the event is over in 23 hours so it would be too late once they respond.
@dim hare have you checked the correct answers and hop off the nodes where relevant?
No I am done with Trivia Number 1 and Number 2 - all milestones completed.... Trivia Number 3 has not appeared to be able to read it or do it
All that has been done, its been a several hours. It's not a big deal I have gotten used to the Sopleyisms. Doubt rewards will result in anything other then a need to purchase additional items anyway, Thanks for the suggestions though
No exchange hostile kill event today? Someone goofed...
Can the realta pvp event be changed so that any player kill with a realta in the system counts?
@wanton copper @icy cairn once again expressing my extreme displeasure of having 3 pay-walled slbs (USS titan slb) for new content in a single month, especially during an event store month. 1-2 heroic sms is fine, but slbs should have have some sort of f2p scoring, even if it is inconsequentual compared to paid scoring.
It was 1 Heroic SMS and 3 SLB’s
Nope. This is the 3rd slb for the titan only content
Oh yep. I don’t know how I missed that third one 🤣🤣
I even stared at the contents of the folder earlier
🙈
that 50carmada though lol
This movie gives me chills
@wanton copper @icy cairn
I would say at this point, tagging them is not effective, they are either complacent in this or they are ineffective. 🙄 either way, same outcome 🤷♂️
I can't wait to see the pack in the store for 100 dollars for the Cardassian Disruptor
Can't get the mission key from the web store and i tried many times to...
The batlleship combat training event it's not working properly. The only counts if attack the hostile. If the hostile attacks me it doesn't, even with the same ship in the same system. Nowhere in event description say that. And it didn't use to work that way. 🤬🤬
Auto grinding generally doesnt work in any SMS event like these. It is expected that we arent scoring while AFK. It has been this way for quite a while. If it worked for you before, that was the bug most likely 🙂
It always worked for me . It was the first time it didn't. Even the interceptor event yesterday
You were in Klingon space, where the attacking ship was an interceptor.
You are still in Klingon space, the attacking ship is not a battleship.
That’s the difference between yesterday’s event and today.
There's no difference. It supposed to be killing hostiles while using a batlleship. It says nothing about attacking ship. Or I'm i missing something? 🙄
You’re supposed to be the one attacking, but reading the above you can work out the way to get around the scoring mechanism to score the “lazy way.”
You are missing the part where the event follows the no passive kills rules that all events and daily’s should be following for the last 2 years or so
Essentially, there is a bug that allowed you to score since your stalker was the correct ship type.
Exactly that 🙂
Come on scopely, have an ATA SLB where i spend all stuff and now to get another ATA for battlepoints? Come on
An away team BP event right after a 2 day away team SLB......Come on Scopely....
BP is "Away Teams" the day AFTER an "away teams" event?
Then what i thought was a small problem, is in fact a big one. This was the only event that follows that rule. I have no problem doing any other event .
Overlapping armada events that use the same directives? Are you kidding me?
They all used to follow it. Over time they all broke.
This is something old players are used to do doesn’t affect them. New players on the other hand don’t understand why the event doesn’t work the way they want it
How does it make any sense whatsoever to make an Away Teams Battle Pass event happen the day after a multi-day Away Teams event? Everyone in my alliance is angry about this because we've all blown our officer Traits XP over the course of the past couple of days. It's like Scopely doesn't even bother to think this stuff through.
Actually I'm a very old player, i just bother reading all the updates ☺️. I've been playing since there was only Federation, Klingon and Romulans, long before armadas was a thing.
That’s almost a 100 hostiles to complete this event every week, can we get more points for hostiles level 52-60?
You're supposed to do it while Supported. Doesn't mean you have to, but it takes much longer without. I usually do it while doing other events/dailies, and I've never had a problem with getting it done (unless I'm going to warp 350 space where Cerritos can't reach yet. 😅)
Agreed, but not that big of a deal. Should be able to finish it just with completing daily away teams missions. Only need to use skill xp if you want to speed it up.
I agree and have fed this back a couple of times before.
I can only raise the issue, if scopely wants to hold up their promises on lowering unnecessary screentime
These special recruit chests, like the Picard memory chip chest, would actually be useful if they weren’t loaded down with shards no one needs. As it is, it’s just giant tease.
Really enjoyed the trivia this month. Challenging, but not impossible for a casual fan. I’m sure nerds will say “too easy”, but I think you nailed it for the majority of players. I also appreciated “mine 1 xxx” so I could use my warship without having to go back for a miner.
most ppl just waiting for answers to be posted in alliance chat and doing that event without reading it at all
The new Cerritos Elite event is horrible. It takes 4 buffs to finish the event and most events took 1 or 2 before this
This event I’m not able to score despite doing ever answer multiple times . I know the correct answer is earl grey tea. Despite doing all answers 6x it’s not acknowledging my doing any it.
You mine dilitium and recalled the ship?
Yes
Where are you mining?
The last question was pretty tricky
no apex?
The Apex event is now weekly every Thursday for 24 hours
Today is?? oh no Apex day
apex where?
time..... is relative.....
So, Apex event is weekly, but only once, well done Scopely 👍
two battle pass events?
Hey where's the new, highly touted, weekly Apex event? My expectations were low but DANG...
they gave us 2 battlepass events to compensate the missing apex xD
Glad they heard the crowd and end this before it mess up again 🙏🏻
But hey we did get a 120k chateau coin bundle for picards and the TNG picard av. And a gift Dixon Hill av. Because this is... The Big Goodbye
APEX between the BP is okay but please don't even try it weekly!!!! @regal inlet
And remove the CD of the Medals btw. this is ridiculous when spending 30+ Medals a 7d CD kicks in. WHY??? 🤔 😩
EDIT: Didn't even know I can tag Scopely as a sidenote 😂
Apex event?
Looks like the event is now on, the usual lag i guess ?
guessing this loading is done in 23h 26m...
Scopely again confirms they dont care in any way to fix long lasting issues like this
This is idiotic! Why this 7d CD?! What is the reason for this? 😩 🤮
They will remove it eventually. Patience.
I like the "eventually" here 🤣
Apex events need reworking. Not enough armadas for a busy server. The spawn rate is awful too
Lets imagine an armada event without a proper respawn timer...
Guess they lied to you. Timegated again this week. 
OMG Teki is mad... now its bad 😱
They never specified when it would be removed. Just that it was being removed while they get the event running
You're really running this stupid Stella event every week now without fixing the bugs? You can neither see the Armdas properly nor join them. Everything jerks like hell! Who at scopely gets the idea that this rubbish is supposed to be fun somehow? Don't you ever play your own crap? Is something like this only tested on empty test servers? It's unplayable filth!
Was about to write the same thing 👆 can't see armadas to join them half the time, so dumb having it at all
If Apex is a thing every Thurs now, we need either a better armada spawn rate, or additional systems...
Can you PLEASE remove the cooldown on Zeta tokens for us to spend them before you make them useless?
<@&509691205798592532> #💬-events-feedback message
Where does that go to?
Need more systems with high level eclipse armadas.
Cooldown on Apex Research Medals needs to be removed. Would also be nice to include G5 mats in the Rouge Event Trophy RSS/Mats packs since they are fairly useless in G5.
Our server lags at armadas, there are some double starts, sometimes you can't even see if an armada is already running, missions are no longer updated, ships don't fly off, I'm playing on the PC with a cable, it's not on the network, other players from the alliance have the same problems finally under control it's no longer fun pictures from the shops are displayed empty oh and the event only started 25 minutes later the intern probably forgot that Thursdays are now always Apex events or what's going on with you?
Why do I have to join the apex armada event?
what this guy said! The event is just bad due to the recurring technical issues. The game is not capable of handling so many Armadas in one system it seems.
- increased points for armadas in apex event.
- still need more armada targets and shorter respawn time.
- rewards for materials looks like a joke and why crystal pack have more crystals than ore/gas pack?
- apex research medals cooldown (original event doesn't have it)
- fix the lags
p.s. and i think reputation points should be bigger and depends from player current rogue reputation. I have a 23 millions reputation and this 90 points from event looks ridiculous. i need thousands at least. Give us (players who doesn't have max rep) a motivation to do this sms'.
Thursday evening died with it so playing is no fun you can rather play Tetris than the lagg fest here
When it comes to the weekly events please respawn hostiles sooner than later 🙏 eclipse armada specifically 😎
Why are you doing armada? The event say recruit works too, so let's recruit is far way more worthy
The og Borg armadas have more systems for armadas than apex… and they’re just gathering dust.
Wasn’t meant to be a reply ooops
To get The Great Picard #9 do you really need a ship with a 25 warp? Harsh!
Alliance chat is malfunctioning, just like with previous apex. How are we supposed to coordinate apex armadas when we cant communicate properly?
Sounds a bit high. You might be in a warp 25 system
It looks like Apex is pretty popular, any chance we can get more armada locations. The spawn rate is not fast enough and there isn't enough in the current systems.
I don't see where borg armada score for Apex Rogue.
Unless you mean to re-purpose them
the event is so frustrating i put brown mass on it
They don’t but in comparison to the amount armadas available. We need that for apex
Ah. Yeah. Fair point
They MASSIVELY upped the points needed to complete that. I used to be able to do it just the cheapest pulls from the two augment and the one outlaw tab when it showed up end of arc. Now it takes that plus another 40-50 TP dust pulls. Just another example of scopy punishing players, not helping. I was happy to be almost done with the Apex loop. This just adds another nail in a coffin that is getting progressively more airtight 🙄
Different events: the mining one was the one that could be completed with 10 epic shards, and they aren’t running that one.
I recruited 30 slim mudd with transporter pattern, eurydice will work too
@wanton copper and @icy cairn Scopely should not run the Eclipse Armada event if you are not able to fix the lag and the horrible display bugs happening because Mige, Karppinen and Lindstrom star systems become heavily congested. Really Scopely, it is extremely disapointing that you haven't been able to address these issues in the past months since they were first reported. And you have now introduced this weekly Apex event. You want us to experience these problems on a weekly basis. Shame on you, Scopely!
@wanton copper , @icy cairn Hey Scopely, this Apex Chaos is now already every week? Was not 1 week enough for respawn time to change? It can't be that hard. Oh well, you didn't make it because of the newbie developers. Thx 🤦🏻♂️😂
This game is a Desaster these days!! The lag is horrible! Game not playable! The Armadas are disappearing, there are Fata-Morgana Armadas you can’t join, the game crashes every 5 minutes, chat messages disappear randomly… pls!!! Guys!!! Get the basic stuff going!!!
Slb for apex has a stupid banding. Level 40s in with level 49s
Unbelievable lag, and far too many events to do at the same time, with multiple SLB’s
I guess we should be thankful it is not the whole server. 😦
Does anyone know why we have two battlepass points events?
Why doesn’t event store contain feesha borg refit when it has stella borg refit 🤷🏼♂️
not even for half dead server
you asked for less grind, scopley introduced apex thursdays ... and certain ppl on dead servers think its working just fine ... 😂 😂 😂
Ye olde servers not handling armadas correctly. Remind me when armadas were introduced to the game and explain to me how they still don’t work properly
Apex weekly event is stupid and useless without new systems and more armadas, the game lags like hell all the time. No one asked for a new event, everyone asked for more systems, but well Scopely doesn’t have a real Product Manager who can put 2+2 together
@icy cairn @torpid wren what is with having to join Apex SLB? Why in the @?!!# do we have to press join. Jesus. Wake up. Sped epic directives. Kill 5 armadas. Then realize. Have to c,ick join. Why??????
The current status of server 32 during Apex... 💀
This is actually worse than last week. Well done, Scopely. You've managed to break again something already broken. 🫠
So do we get registry updates to our Titans?
Why is every other option available except these? And why do none of the images display
They are still on cool-down from last week
That needs to be reduced so they are open when the rest are
I guess we will see. Last week they did something strange and kept the event store open all week when originally it had a 24h timer on it
Scopely going to give away the rewards for the Stella event? It is impossible to do those events, in those zones extremely high number of players, there are no armadas, hostiles ships.. ectreme lag. Far too little room for everyone. So basically, that part of players can't do that event because of this
many billions of players are fighting to get a seat, it's impossible there just isn't a spot..
I’ve seen this at least 8 times today, it’s not even like they’re within a second of each other. And then the onus is always always on the player to send in a ticket and many just don’t bother because it’s like calling a telco, just awful.
the slb says it gives 8000 points for an epic outlaw shards, I got 1 Eurydice and got only 450 points or something ...
either fix the description or the points given
The description is correct
What you are looking at is unlocking an epic officer is 8k points
So Scopely how did you really come up with weekly Apex event? Too few systems and too long respawn time. But we have a lot of Borgcube systems which are in use every 2-3 months. Very cleverly thought out! You do not have too much intelligence!
@icy cairn @wanton copper for the love of all things trek, if you are going to run a weekly apex increase the respawn rate. I shouldn't have to spend hours going back and forth between 3 systems just to get the event done. It's a waste of my time and resources. Because I have to settle for an Armada that I can beat by myself much less needing 6 other alliance mates.
Please just make all armadas respawn when they die. Is it really that difficult or game breaking?
They think they need to create artificial scarcity, however they really dont!
They should really just hand out a blanket, decent sized compo chest if directives at this rate. Plus all the above about providing sufficient armadas for the event.
lol, so your solution to over crowded armadas is to give everyone the ability to start even more?
can we please get increased spawnrate of eclipse armadas or even better instant respawn? this event is pita...
They wont listen, the CCs approve of this thursday apex event, and devs listen to the good and are deaf to the bad. "CCs say 3 events in 1 day excellent (we say 1 event a day for 3 days squeezed into 1 day isnt going to help systems with load)" - who you think the devs are going to listen to in that sentence? lol. Apex thursday good? No its not (I understand CCs might be asking for extra systems or 3 end systems to have higher scaled hostile targets but its been 2+ years of asking and its not happened).
Get your brackets fixed... guess who is the only non 42 here... There is 0 reason I should have been in the same bracket on solo armada event with folks that have g4 uncommons
So the graphics are on cooldown as well?! 🤣😂🤣 And where’s the expiration banner?
They don’t expire (for now) except the old token claims which run for 13 more days
Did they remove the officer packs to spend mission keys from the sms already? Usually they run for 24 hours after? It's not in my recruit tab
Running for 8 more days
The mission key claim is a monthly thing. It doesn’t correlate to its event
It was the one from the Picard events not the webstore, but I forgot it was in event store
👍🏻
First time in a lonnnng time that I’m hoping we don’t have another Event Store for a while. Would much rather have had the mats & rss this month
Event stores are a total rip off. Only thing they're good for are officer shards and the occasional elite mycelium pack to stock up on disco juice
Free stuff is considered a rip off nowadays? I must be getting old.
@icy cairn @queen kindle
Web store event was ended last night too early. And I wasn’t able to get online and I was a small purchase away from the next mile stone. Why does it end so quickly… can you please ask them to extend it a few more days
Tbh, it should run for the whole arc. It makes very little sense to start it in the middle, after people have already spent, and not run it through the whole arc. You want people to spend? Make those price tags actually have good returns. This is why you sell so many monthly packs...
Weren't they going to fix the apex medals so there is no hidden limit?
Soon ™️
I won't hold my breath considering some of the soons we've had
All I know is we need to have patience
Didn't even know it ended. That's really dumb. I was considering going for next milestone if there was something I halfway wanted in the store. Not anymore ayyy
This milestones are pretty high! Lowering those would be great for all
Is there a delay on SLB? Rare directives are scoring on PIC SMS but not on my SLB.
Have you tried restarting your game?
Yes. Shouldn't the numbers be the same? I spent 200 rare Borg solo directives.
So I mistakenly purchased cloaking shards for a ship cloak I've already unlocked. Why is that option still even there
Passed on
@white bramble Ty. But they both should be the same?
I would recommend restarting again in about an hour and if they don’t match still then a ticket to CS will be needed
I believe so
Had the same issue 
@vapid nest mine still is at 0
@vagrant topaz I have sent a ticket, hope you do too
Under contact support?
Yes
You made us buy packs of sub relay because you screwed up and we used to get them for free. Putting those packs in the store is a slap in the face they should be free In the gifts
Why is skill points not on this list? It’s got everything but skill points. 99% of people can’t spend any of the other things due to poor sourcing of fc shards and material.
I wouldn't bother with the FC feature, the alliance starbase, or with incursions should they ever come back - they were all poorly thought-out money grabs. This game has become a prime example of what is wrong with mobile gaming today.
I am a high-end dolphin myself. I've played for years and am extremely disappointed with how the game has turned out. It started off great, but past level 40, it's become perversely costly and almost unplayable due to bugs and poor performance. Unless you're willing and capable of spending irrational amounts of money, put up with all the defects, and give up your friends to join others like yourself, it's nearly impossible to progress. I can't understand why or how F2P players can continue to play. It's a shame that progress or enjoyment has become so unattainable for most players.
Clearly this game was designed to extract as much money as possible from its players with little regard for their enjoyment or satisfaction. The gameplay is imbalanced and unfair, and the developers seem to have no intention of fixing these issues.
I'm disappointed in the developers for creating such an unfair and unbalanced game. Unless significant changes are made, it's inevitable that most players will leave - and rightfully so. I'm considering whether to save my money for a game that values its players and provides a fair and more enjoyable experience. The hardest part for me is losing the social atmosphere that used to be part of the game. People have grown tired of it. The way it's structured requires associating with players you don't particularly enjoy being aligned with, and the fun social atmosphere has been lost. I don't know if they can fix it, or if they even care. With the recent sale of Scopely to the Saudis, I wouldn't be surprised to see the game gone by the end of the year.
This will be fixed at the same time as the rest of the Apex issues? Is that what you're saying? 🧐😂
I consider myself the same spend-wise, and wish I could have it all back now that I see where it has led.
Having just launched my G5 UC, which otherwise would've happened 90 days ago, but I hit the brakes hard on spending, as have most on my server, even the level 59s & 60s who have the lowest scores I've ever seen from them in the spend events this Arc, I'm literally one more thing away from quitting. I have been for a while. What that thing will be remains to be seen.
The fact that a level 57 with a G5 Rare can one shot my station with my G5 UC home is ludicrous. Due to my research, I'm more powerful than most 54s & some 55s, so I'm not lacking there. My G5 is already T3+, so it's not a baby. He wasn't even using a station hitting crew.
There are so many things wrong with this game, I don't know where to begin or end. They know them all. We've complained about them all. They either don't care, or they don't know how to fix them.
i've seen people talk about seeing the feesha warp interlock being available in the event store this month but didn't see it in mine, so i spent a bunch of store credit to get my second feesha to t4 to hopefully have it appear and it didn't smh. i'm ops 45 👈
What ops are you?
At Ops 41 you get 1 free in the refinery. The ones in the event store are for your second Feesha
i'm ops 45. my first feesha was t4, but i didn't upgrade the warp part yet. upgraded the second to t4 hoping it would appear in the store and it didn't. upgraded one of the warp parts to see if it would make it appear in the event store. it didn't. restarted the game a few times. still didn't appear
That is strange. It’s in my event store with a limit of 2. Ops 44, I only have the one feesha.
LOL wonderful. i just need 1
Tier up your first Feesha to T5
Not strange 🙈
are you sure that will unlock it? that's A LOT of event store credit
I’ve seen the issue before. It should do it.
it worked! thank you!
I'm 49 and don't have a g5 ship and I can repel a 57 rare ship so 🤷♂️
It's GREAT when all armadas count in these events!!👍
So we just gunna have ecclipse everyday now? 🤣
Why not, it's easy 😆
First place for SLB for 6 hour events pay out less than the non-SLB 6 hour events at my ops.
Not worth spending more for a shot at less…
Anyone know where the Titan mission is? I've been travelling for a month and now got 2hrs to finish it, except I can't find it and it's not in the Holodeck
It’s in the holodeck.
it doesn't grant any BPs if that helps
What ops are you?
Mission event
Level 42. Nothing in holodeck unfortunately
Check your archived missions in case you already claimed it
Checked your missions and archived missions list already? Maybe you claimed it and set it aside earlier?
Checked archive and active missions. Unless it's not actually called Titan? Only started the missions today because of work travels this past month, don't remember picking it up. Very weird.
I don't have it either @lyric moth
It’s called Titan
I have the same problem. It's not in Holodeck. Seven 1/2 and Rivalry missions were, but no titan mission and now the "Legacy" tab for this arc is empty even. I'm at ops 44 if that matters
Ok so I'm not alone. Exactly the same situation for me, just level42
Same, did the missions this morning and no Titan one
@white bramble should we bother trying to create tickets? All mine are automatically closed so I don't have much hope in that solution
It sounds like you need to make different choices to get to a person
The arc runners always remove the missions after reset while they wrap up the arc. Not sure why they did it slightly earlier, but I don’t think CS will help here. They will likely tell you, you had 3 weeks to do the events why did you leave them till today and close the ticket.
My answer will be because the timer is still active and real life had to take priority over the Easter holidays. I selected and did the 3 others (Seven 1-10 and Rivalry) today, it's only the Titan one missing. @wanton copper @icy cairn don't suppose you can help get the missions available?
Glad I told the guy in my alliance who just hit 15 last night to hurry up and do the mission
Well, that's the points I needed for the refit I was going for missed... if the event has a timer, that timer shouldn't be an approximation. @wanton copper @icy cairn if you could pass the message on, that would be appreciated
is this a joke? 500 level 36+ enemies?
Build a ship or don’t do the event. Just remember that MS is dependent on secret criteria so you may or may not see it ever again
Stop having cut off timers that don't align with actual Arc Event Store timers!!! Or a better idea... keep timers for events but no timers to redeem currencies!!! So tired of lack of thinking on the part of programming and so tired of bloated inventory of legacy currencies. I can't be the only one that is frustrated with this aspect of the game.
Contact CS they might be able to help
crucible parsteel rewards needs a massive upgrade
Can we do a better job about removing items from event store (or refinery for that matter) that we've already maxed out? I can always buy a Cloaked Racketeer Token, but I've had that since the BP it was first available in. Same goes for the Enterprise cloak shards, or the refits in the Amalgam refinery: I shouldn't be able to buy more shards than what I can actually use.
Hi! This should be fixed and appearing in the holodeck now
Able to see it now?
Unfortunately not (also, I've completed all those missions except Outlaw at least twice but they keep coming back 😂) @wanton copper
With Apex events between arcs removed, what events can we expect?
24-26 is Crucible of War.
Ummmmmmm is Chumlee working for Scopely?🤣🤣🤣
Have you tried clearing localization and restarting the app?
Yup and just done it again, same as before
How about updating the ALB rewards? Coz uh, that’s like 10 repairs of my defiant and I’m sure it’s laughably less for ppl with proper g4 and g5 ships. Why would any alliance bother?
If we talk ops equivalent return - I am in. However, if fixed and most are in the mid 40s - that mill should be in bill
Hi. I no longer have access to the military supremacy event. Scopely help said i was over qualified but couldn’t explain what that means. End result is i have one less event and rewards than other players at the same level. Why is this???
The military supremacy event is probably STFC’s greatest mystery apart from who rounded up their quality control team and sent them all to the gulag. Every theory someone has about what makes you qualify is eventually proven wrong
They told me it was an algorithm but couldn’t explain what metrics are used.
take every existing theory, combine them, and add a random number generator seeded with the server number
Not that they didnt know, but that they wernt allowed to divulge the magic
We are the qc team
destroyer parts huh ? is that the new thing ?
Probably means interceptor
The Concentrated latium not in Tarna system need a update! It is always full
Interceptor. Destroyer was the original name, and for some reason is still used in some events or description
They are secret that’s why
Would absolutely love an interim bp event schedule! With the changes to Apex and also not knowing whether it's one week off or 2, a lot of uncertainty...
The whole CoW event needs a rework imo. They should move everything to the event store tab, update alb rewards, improve bronze/silver medal bundles, and update/add officers to gold medal recruits. They should also add scoring bonuses for the newer ships on the alb!
Personally, I would remove/increase limits on the cow medal packages and have the alb give like 20k bronze, 10k silver, and 2k gold medals for first, and then reduce it for lower rankings.
Soon ©️
So I finished the "Recuperation" mission but it didn't do the 3 path unlocks
Have you restarted your game?
Yes,I hope this isn't another thing like the field training nerf to punish people who restart an account
Regular soon, or Scopely soon?
Regular soon
When do superhighway open up? Is that ops 50?
You can see them at 50, but the research that opens them up is 53.
still no officer flash pass event on S009 (ok had to restart even though I didnt log in until after reset...
Exhilarating day of events. Putting the fun right back in the game 🤣 hate these inbetween arcs lol
Seriously?? More event store loot after the arc ended? We spent everything now!! We planned it out after the arc was over because we've been taught to wait until the end. How long are we supposed to wait before we can spend our stuff without getting punished for it????
And a Talios upgrade SLB?? Out of the blue? Is our progression supposed to be on hold for months waiting on events? Not to mention many peopke are ops-locked...
This is garbage 😡😡😡😡
super creative to have a mining event after a 24 hour mining event
hey that worked just fine, cause i forgot to reset my miner for the mining monday. same 3 people taking the 3 spots in SLB anyway, no use to even try to compete
Hey, why is it we have the Mantis, ViDar Talios, Defiant, and now the Titan that are not included in the milestone event for Crucible of War? Some of these ships are nearly a year old and still worth 1 point while, in the case of the Talios, it's younger counterpart is worth more.
Is this Flash Pass supposed to be completable without spending? I see the last milestone for it is 59,500 and the "Heroic" overflow is at 90k. Is this the direction you are going to force us to spend even more?
It’s always been like that.
It’s 100% completable f2p
Ya..knowing that tailios event was gonna be a thing...would been nice. *cries in doing research last night.
good evening, will there be another next arc picard?
Will the current Picard coins be available ?
No and no
What do you think? 😉🤣
So no time shown on the apex event store?
So does this event mean anyone that has already maxed the Talios and related research capped at 39 on server 93 just out of luck? (Asking for a friend) The Picard mirrors my feelings on this.
With all due respect; something has to be wrong with the "Crucible of War" event on S70. Our whole alliance in game has been doing this event but when it comes to the Alliance MS board we have barely budged, and so we will not be getting any of the alliance rewards... EVEN THOUGH we've all maxed out the solo event TWICE!
It's all a matter of how many active players and how big of ships they're scoring with, it's easy for many and impossible for some
Ummm Forgive me but I know that and we do have a pretty strong alliance... and from what I have found by asking the other active members; we are ALL doing this... but it seems we are still not budging
If you're in a 30 person guild it'll seem like it isn't moving, unless you got a ops 50+ in there slaying high level hostiles.
We are about 64-66 strong; (One or two are away at other alliances helping their lower people to learn stuff.) Only two can be considered inactive...
Click this button on the AMS to see a listing of the contributions your players have toward the event. You'll need to use the dropdown to change it to your members.
So this is BS. I can’t score in this event and get the HF because I already have done the work on my talios A MONTH AGO. You level locked it and I don’t get another opportunity to upgrade it until 40.
Similar situation, I just did all the upgrades I can during the last mat spend event, so now there’s no way to participate in this.
@icy cairn would be wonderful to know what the events are for this mini arc so folks can plan….just saying
Lol spending from refinery doesn't count for the talios SLB at all lol. I have zero way to compete
@icy cairn the Talios doesn't earn anything as a premium combat ship in Crucible of War. Seems to be an oversight as you get no bonus points for killing hostiles with it or tiering it up.
@icy cairn @wanton copper Would you folks be able to provide an event outline for the rest of the week and weekend etc? Thanks in advance!
Absolutely you can. The event schedule should appear shortly in-game.
and here as well?
According to the recently published schedule, the "improve the talios event" was supposed to last two days 25 and 26 but it lasted only 24 Hours... Bug or Feature ?
"Published today 26 AFTER said SLB closed:
Upgrade the Talios SLB
April 25-26
Participate for a chance to earn the Facepalm Hailing Frequency! "
same in French:
Probably already suggested but I believe the option to use event tokens to recruit fleet commander Spock and or Kirk through this months event store would of been nice. Since F2P acquisition is taking forever for a second fleet commander.
So no mini-arc events?
The schedule is posted in game, as well as #💫-event-information message
And it is already wrong lol
@icy cairn shouldn't Pic Worf slb be running?
<@&509691205798592532> is station event really suppised to be 10 DAYS long? Server 98
10 days and 18h now. Electricity isn't cheap, builder need more time to work now
That says it runs from the 25th to the 26th. Which it did.
No it ran only the 25th "game day" or you'd have to rewrite all schedules. What is fun with it is that Scope is always a step ahead towards the absurd. We got used to wrong schedules ? Now a wrong one AFTER the fact ! Together with 11 days "limited" station events, we're deep in Pakled corporate world !
So I like the structure of the new Second Contact Elite Event. I just wish it didn't take 4 boosts to hit the last milestone. Perhaps reduce it to the equivalent of 3 boosts?
did they change the second event for PIC Worf to be an XSLB for Hugh/PIC Picard?
There was never a second Worf SLB
Thanks for publishing the event list that there was a tallios slb after it ran. Had upgraded mine 1 hour earlier so couldn’t take part.
Maybe they'll hide pic worf in the last mile stone of the xlb
Just wait until you get Cerritos to higher tiers. Your Irvinite cost used to boost goes down each tier, meaning number of boosts needed to finish that sms goes up. I have to do it 6 times to finish it with a t9 Cerritos.
three slb's in what? a week? how !exiting
at which cerritos tier do you get the second contact elite event? and what are the rewards?
T5 and decent amount of trit/parts/mats. Nothing to write home about, but nice bit to supplement
Which when hitting the right hostiles means more SLB points 🙂
Indeed true. As long as you can kill a good amount of lvl60 freebooters per hull, then the slb all comes down to killing more than anyone else.
Three per Pilum at the moment 😏
I don’t even do the slb any more. Need all my Cheeto juice for solos 😂
Hey Scopely eggheads. Events are Retrieving again! 🫠
three new ECP system is good but still having those long respawn times for armadas is hilarious! Gawd you guys so lazy.... never seen in my entire life.
Get rid of the time gate on medals, it’s ridiculous. Also can you please get the graphics to appear. Clearing localization doesn’t work.
Events broken. All stuck retrieving. Update: Clearing localization fixed the retrieving issue for me
Why they should fix a bug? Bugly don't have bugs, they only have features! Spares memory on your device, it is all for "better/faster working" 🤣
Multiple alliance members stuck on retrieving
Clearing localization fixed the retrieving issue for me
Everyone was, it's fixed now if you clear localisation
Nit for me
Not for me either
Might need to clear it a few times to work
this new apex framework is an absolute cluster.
Every week the same, chat doesn't work, you can't see armadas started, can't join them if you see them.... Is someone awake as Scopely, it's time this Apex event ist stopped till it's fixed.
Massive lag, no notifications.
Putting Ops 41 - 49 in the same SLB bracket for Apex is too many people to make participation worthwhile, and rewards too low. Please consider breaking it down like lat rush, or into another standardized slb format
Why the hard cooldowns? If it's not actually a choice how to spend but it's here every week, why give the illusion that it is?
I get that everyone was asking for more 40 eclipse armadas. But we needed more of ALL levels. By only increasing the number of 40s, players that can take them out have a distinct advantage over other players in the same brackets that are cannot take them out, simply bc there are more targets.
No cooldowns on apex event store or at least shorter cooldowns please
continuing to make the weekly apex SLB manual join is pants on head stupid.
You forgot to join didn't you?
Apex is much improved with the new systems. I'd also consider adding a tier up and or scrap stella metric to the slb... eventually folks are gonna tap out on officer shard and promote scoring.
Getting a shard that turns into patterns still gives the same points. I mean, it's silly to use patterns to get patterns (because it's a 10 to 1 return rate) but the option is there. 🤷♂️
The brackets have changed since last week, and now it’s something like 41-49. On an ops locked server that leaves something like 12 players in the top bracket (50*) 😂
Putting the L45 epics in the same system as the L40 epics was a stroke of genius 🙄
Will there be anything for another missed Incursions? Update on what's going on with it? If it's not going to happen, we need ways to get relays, Una, and whatever else was supposed to be part of it.
They will release the pay pack once a month, worry not 🙄. Silly gits (scopy, not the players asking for parts)
server 89 the new systems are practically dead, and we have the same congestion problem for lvl 30+ armadas. I've been sitting here for 30 mins try to find a 31/33. been like that all day long
no. that doesn't change that it's silly to make it opt-in.
The “intent” is that someone that has all the skins (or is too high level to need what is available), doesn’t need to compete in the SLB and the “opt-in” allows those people to stay out and not take rewards from those that can still utilize them.
Having said that, the opt-in is still relatively pointless bc those same people can simply avoid running/joining armadas on Apex day and have the same effect.
But it’s week three. By now, players should have picked up on the mechanic. It’s not a surprise anymore.
It is indeed no surprise. But it can happen you forget it anyways. Last week I was reminding my team, to make sure to opt-in, this time I forgot it myself. Real life can be real distracting sometimes.
It should be like the Jelly-spent event (if I remember right, this was also opt-in for a long time, but was changed then) or like for the Opus Grande skin. Players who have it, don't even see the SLB.
I have to opt-in for the event that does not give skins. It's ridiculous. It should just let you be in the SLB that is for research medals and tokens.
I’ve checked. The lowest bracket has always been 4.5k
Apex SLB need mich tighter brackets. Us non-whales in the lower 40s will never be able to win anything when having to share the board with the late 40s whales
By the lower 40s you can kill everything that the late 40s can anyway
Yeah seriously in a XSLB having 3 servers compete against each other. very smart move 🙄
Oh that's real fair. On the xslb, I'm being paired up with people 50+, and I'm only 46. How can I compete with people, spending g5 mats ?
50s that just moved up or actually people who've been in G5 for awhile?
Stop it with the xslb’s!!! I know it’s only for you to drive profits but come on! It’s hard enough to complete with just my own server
50s, 51s, 52s ... it's just plain silly. Not to mention now it's all stuck "retrieving. "
So every XSLB we get paired up with the same other server? No variety? Seems like you’re missing the point. May as well just merge the two if it’s always the same pairing.
Faction hunt 2 days in a row - creative
Faction hunt is always 2 days in a row. that was always like that
My hope is that the whales will eventually run out of officers to promote and so it will simply come down to who can kill the most armadas. But as of right now people are scoring in the millions of points. Which is a bit ridiculous
Would be nice to have a fleet commander option for picard coins. <@&509690795536941056>
Take your XLB’s and shove them up your 4th point of contact Scopy. Seriously you’re just a bunch of miserly gits. (There is your “event” feed back. No one, and I do mean NO ONE likes, appreciates, or sees these as anything more than an toxic money grab.
If you folks are thinking of running Incursions, please provide at least a weeks notice for those that may be out of game. We don't like short notice, especially when it involves de-activating people's shields.
No arbor say gift?
Our mid bracket scores that running armadas.
Put another way, they keep the lights on. Ignore them if you can’t compete. Job done 🙂
Thank you for the XSLB 😍
Please up the rewards in faction hunt. 960 points for 24 uncommon mats isn’t inspiring us to play.
It really sucks the life out of the game now that you quit counting uncommon armadas for events. It was far better when events counted the uncommon armadas. I’m no stupid fool to buy your stupid armada packs for $100 when you don’t give enough to really run anything. Put armada events back the way the used to be were uncommon counted as much as rare and epic
<@&509690795536941056> the scoring for running the rare and epic armadas are not high enough to make it worth it. When the top scores are in the millions, 20k points is nothing.
#wearerhebetatesters
RIP anyone on server 15 or 20 that had a 7 day shield and thought they were safe to go on vacation
Yeah that's definitely going to suck for people who put up a 7 or 30 day shield to do life events because they expected incursions were permanently dead
Like scopy has ever given a flying flip about people’s shields 🙄. As long as the whales have food.
Incursions drop all shields?
In many systems, shields are suppressed and no longer function.
What a ftad designed that lol xd yeah whales event like someone said, thanks for answer
only in systems 19+, I believe
20 and up, all of origin / territory counts as 20 or 25. 19 and below are safe. ( 1 to 19 systems, as long as you shield, and dont pvp, youre safe. 20 and higher systems, even if you had an active shield, during the 24 hr incursion period, you can be hit. If you do engage in pvp, be ready to relo systems to be able to reshield).
so if u move up to 19 and below you are safe from incursion hits?
No. You still need to shield
yeah i know but shield is working, thats what im about
Yep
It was probably meant to keep the whales more engaged by forcing shields down to provide targets for their toys (since they don’t attack each other they usually punch down, and most savy folks have shields up). What has actually happened has they have system shocked new and mid folks into leaving, and killing the food chains with toxicity. Therein boring the whales into slowly leaving. They got the wrong ip and what they call pvp is nothing but a numbers game bought with time/money. It’s pure toxicity fueled by neo-capitalist bs. Welcome to the purest form of “scopy”. Oh, and it also never seemed to work as intended either lol
If you hate the game and Scopely so much, why are you still playing and commenting? Honestly, just do yourself a favour and delete the game.
If everybody did that you would have nobody to play with
you might not even be able to play with ur self😉
Just because I don’t like the way the company runs itself, doesn’t mean I don’t enjoy the the pve (and social) aspects of the game. And I comment because descent is needed if for no other reason to let scopy know that (and other players) that what is going on is in no way “okay” just because we are being conditioned to accept it. I don’t accept it. And I will eat up their resources playing the game the way I want, not the way scopy or the bullies want 😉
Yeap! U got my voice!:D
Have you seen the latest survey that pops up when the game loads? Asks about Legacy part 1, PvP banding, SLB banding, in game toxicity... I mean not outright, but they're on the list as checkboxes of our top 5 problems. 👀
It would be helpful if scopely would put up a schedule of events and battle pass events in the news section in game and leave them up for the duration of the battle pass.
Your chest pulls on all must-have guarantees. All facets of the game must need major resource im[porvment and play to the level of the player aka scale. You send surveys out, you ask all the wrong questions. Apex is horrid, ship drops are worthless and evil. Open the game up.
why are we getting chateau picard coins for an event today??? i know the event store can still redeem them, but it seems like those coins are a waste now... as the last battlepass is over and most everyone has spent their coins in order to avoid getting them wasted by not spending them before the event store closed.
It's not even on the #💫-event-information schedule as part of the BP/OFP
Star trek Fleet Command would Have Original Star wars Trilogy Event on May the fourth 2023
That should have been the April Fools event!!!! 🙂
April Fools event?
Not understanding my scoring here. If 1 point of power gives you 20 points for building, then why the hell did I not score the first tier for upgrading my armory to lvl35 ? Armory gives 19,375 points to power which means 19,375x20=387,500 in points which is more then the 300k points needed for tier 1 of domination. That’s not even counting the points I got from my research. Yet in domination event it doesn’t even have me scoring in any of the tier. That ain’t right. Calculated it on calculator.. here it shows 1 building point to 20
the armory doesn't increase your power by 19,375 from armory 34, since it already had 17,800 power. (19,375-17,800)*20=31,500
Not how it reads
Not yet, but I will look for it. I haven’t gotten a survey since I hit ops 45 last September though 🤷♂️. (Guess they figure I am in it for the long haul. Which is fair, I have paid enough to enjoy a good train wreck )
@wanton copper please mate we need back rss and mats from events, and not token for this useless event store. This thing is long too much.🖖
Not how you read it
I like the fact rogue event is now every Thursday, but I think y’all forgot the data mining part of rogue event
The little green number in the circle is what matters. The active increase from a level.
The fact this has to be explained over multiple posts makes me sad
why the hell are we able to get 1.9 mil points, when the max you need it 25.2k
Higher level players have higher milestones.
You can kill level 56-60 hostiles? 🤨
no, but it just looks weird on my screen how there are objectives that give you more points than needed
Yes as it’s above what you are expected to kill
Because they punish you for gaining power. (As opposed to other games where gaining power makes it easier, this one just sucks more of your life away chasing the next milestone 😉. But the reds are correct, the milestones get quite ridiculous as you level up, those points are needed. Oh, and the rewards DO NOT go up compared to the difference. This game is all about diminishing returns.
A very morbid take on an event I complete every week doing dailies #haveyoutriedbeingbetter
Would be nice if the bonus refinery worked for ship parts as well
And bajoran favors affected material bonus refinery outputs
I hope this XSLB left clear that server 94 is nowhere near to challenge servers 95 and 96, a latin-american server, with different economies than them and smaller sourcing of information and experienced players to guide them to grow
<@&509690795536941056> can we please never get a Clear the Coast event except on Thursdays? Like pretty please with sugar and a cherry on top?
@wanton copper @icy cairn
Less than 3mil to get on a xslb...that is sad. I think enough people are fed up with 3 way xslb when the rewards are just crap for the last 99 players.
I ran a solo rare, not for points but to pull a chest and I was 399. That is so bad.
The xslb can be fun so long as the rewards can justify the cost for 1/3 the return. 240 Picard shards for first is great but when 2/3 don't get a full unlock....it is crap.
I think one of the biggest issues with incursion was the execution of it. It never worked the way it read. It should only allow one server to move to the other at a time. Say you do server 23 vs server 24 . Then It should only allow server 23 to invade server 24 for first half.making server 24 defend. Then second half server 24 can invade and server 23 has to defend. Your actual ones you have done allowed both servers to attack the other at the same time which resulted in most cases no one on either server to fight which made it suck for those pvp players . Only a few were actually able to find things to hunt on either server and those were generally people that forgot to move and shield or forgot shields auto drop at a certain lvl fob up for incursion.
I think most servers purge inactive ships right before an incursion, roe be damned
Pvp isn’t really my cup of tea. I do a little but perfer not to. Online pvp has always been more of a show of who can spend the most money not so much about actual skill. Since most buy everything then instead of hitting fellow whales they tend to go after the semi and non spenders for easy points. Why do pvp when you know your weak ship is going to get destroyed by a ship that is 3x superior? If pvp looked at not just player lvl but also at strength . If pvp matches were more fair memories would do it. When you have 60 lvl players with 15mil or more ships hitting over 20 lvls below against a ship barely in the millions or less it’s no contest it’s just a massacre. So many don’t do pvp for this unfair matching..
Yeah I don’t bother with PVP when the whales are involved or show up.
Pvp ok, but only when it’s fair and one has a chance at winning. A lvl 40 can’t compete with a lvl 60’s 100 mill ship when the 40’s best is only 5 mill . That 20 lvl gap is way to big of a gap. You really need to fix your combat chart systems to make pvp more fair instead of this bullying system. Yeah you might get lucky that they only bought up buildings to get the best ships, but if they bought up everything you don’t stand a chance . You’ll have better chance at getting ice in hell . A more fair pvp system will get more to do it. At least realta pvp is more fair .
Hey Scopely....You really need to develop a better sense of humor. Making it possible to collect a free Mission Key from the website, AFTER it no longer is possible to exchange it for a shard, is in no way funny at all. At best, it pisses me off and only underline the feeling, that you guys don't really care, how incompetent you stand out in front of your users.
And concerning PvP: This game is NOT, has NEVER and WILL never be a PvP game. At least not as long the brackets are higher than 3-5 Ops lvl in difference. 2 lvl down and 3 lvl up would make sense. What we have now is plain nonsense. (for PvP....things could work right as it is with base raiding, but for PvP, it just crap, nothing else.)
Raiding is impossible if you're not in the right alliance whales show and pretty much make it no fun
I think most RoEs have been charged to allow that, S40
i think it start 2 hours before incursions.
Actually I agree with him its like you get punished players for leveling up. Thats probably an attempt to get people to spend more.
So much this... The bonus pulls are 4x more expensive, at 4x less returns because it doesn't account for Bajoran favors. If they can make bonus refinery account for having extra pulls from the Primes, why not the increased amounts from favors?
They can...
They just don't smh
There’s a lot more missing than just the Bajoran favours
Great Googly Moogly...Make the pop-up from the Discovery event telling me to collect the rewards stop already. Ugh!
The community would love to have some idea as to what to expect for events this week. The only thing we know about is the Incursions Beta Test. Communication is not currently meeting expectations. I'm not necessarily blaming the people that are the ones that do the communicating as I don't know if they've actually been given any information to communicate.
Scumbag Scopely. Has Return of the Mega-Cube. Runs CoW
Seriously, give us the Mega cube event. Or something else fun.
CoW...again? weird
Lol CoW again. 🐮
So CoW is a weekly event now then? We going to have faction hunt again this week as well? 😆😆 Loving the reduction in grinding
Cow again? Did the last week not happen? You gonna rerun that tallios slb be again without telling us to?
Well done Scopely.... please let's have Faction hunt tomorrow as well 🤣🤣🤣 #useless.
I actually am jealous of the two servers getting punished with testing Incursions this week 😂😂😂
It's been 84 years since attack of the megacube ran... Why do you keep giving us megacube directives if the event will never run again?
Please add the Vidar Talios to the combat ship list that scores in Crucible of War (the vidar scores)
And Stella, asked that 2 years ago
Now you know why you didn't hear from Eco anymore, I'd assume he's even ashamed to give us this COW crap again 🤣 naaa in the meantime we can develop a healthy distance to the game, have days focusing on RL and safe some money. For my part the last really bad ARCs have started pulling me out of the game and have saved me hundreds of £££🙀😂🙀
Defiant and Talios need to be added to the COW ship list
The whole CoW event needs an update, its not worth the effort for the rewards in the ALB, when 1 repair costs 80m trit and I'm doing that 15 or 20 times, 12m trit reward is a slap in the face.
Every middle alliance members just doing their dailys and cow is going to be finished anyway
Yeah we usually complete the AMS by middle of day 2 at the latest, the ALB is what needs to be retooled
@wanton copper @icy cairn please run some parabellum and/or jelly brawl, or hostiles hunt, or ticket events with rss and mats as rewards. Scopely is pushing people to g5, but actually don't give any rss and mats from more than 20 days. No way people will pay more for go g5. They will wait. And tell them, Enterprise-g was better for drain money from players than Titan. Scopely is actually also bad in make money. I really don't see any strategy or plan in what they are doing.
Can you improve the rewards for the Solo and Alliance Leaderboards for Lat Rush to help entice people to participate again? Something like unique refit shards that can't be sourced anywhere else?
Agreed - all the G4 ships they brought out and no economy around to obtain more RSS but having billions of trit cost
From the moment I reached the point where my pilum needs 4* rare gas i have not pulled any of it from armada chests, not a single one…… and this for almost 3 weeks now. Seems the game is designed to give only what you absolutely don’t need
Aye 4* rare is my biggest pain point right now, been dieing for some events that actually pay out rss
same at me also in bajoria token and credits chest
So it’s not only my wifi broken this time 😉😂
😂
Again??? How many bp will there be this month? Or is scopely just trying to get some €€€?
well the heroic battlepass overflow answers your question ...
You can give me your 10 Tal shards if you don’t want them.
Sure, i send it by DHL. But you missed my point…. It’s now 3 battlepass/ month…. What’s next? Perhaps 4 Battlepass a month and armada event 7 day/ week? The creativity of scopely is just amazing
I’ll take it. F2p Tal sourcing 😊
Tal is free, broken rods are free
And even paying, it's 10€. Gonna be a loooooot of flash pass paid to buy that new jet
I'll take the f2p battlepass.. anything is better than do another in- between arc Faction Hunt and CoW 🤣
Yes this ☝️☝️☝️
Yup I will take an extra 10 tal shards & broken rods….you gotta be crazy to complain at those freebies 🤣
They just sold company they dont give a….
We have a 5 week months.... Nothing to do with the fact they sold the company
@icy cairn When would the multiphasic officer packs show up? It’s been 6 months since the last one came.
??
On the multiphasic store there was a limited time officer pack 6 months ago where you can open the packs by using multiphasic credits, I have been waiting for it for a long time but haven’t seen it yet.
I think you tagged the wrong person. BekiV is just some random person
Pure speculation, but… starting the next arc on the 9th means it will run until the 28th. Normally they end in the roughly 22nd-26th range. So I feel like this is just the Flash Pass that should have run after part 1 of the new Arc, if this arc had run from 5/2 to 5/21 like many would have expected… who knows if that’s the real answer.
If arc have started this week, we would still had a 2 weeks gap at the end of the month
True. But possible they could stick some special event in there given the holiday weekend in the US? The last gap like this I remember between battle passes had the Halloween event.
So if they follow the pattern we have another 2 week gap at the end of July, just running the numbers based on a 20 day arc followed by a 6 day flash pass likely what we'll see is;
arc part 1 5/9-5/28
flash pass 5/30-6/4
arc part 2 6/6-6/25
flash pass 6/27-7/2
arc part 3 7/4-7/23
flash pass 7/25-7/30 and another one 8/1-8/6
arc part 4 8/8-8/27
Assuming this will be a 4 part arc leading up to another 4 part arc in September to end the year similar to DS9 was.
4th of July being a Tuesday this year and coinciding with an Arc Fall could be interesting if something goes wrong. its certainly possible they would run a 2 week gap between June and July to offset the 4th and if they're thinking ahead thats probably what they should do given what they've done this month, July only has 4 Tuesday though whereas August has 5 and the gap week usually falls within the month that has the extra day.
that events looks like a drawed fast on a knee
Why I swarmada this week?! Perfect time to throw some Franklin-a refits out there
Any remote possibility that the upcoming FC events will allow us to win FC shards? Particularly Locutus ones...
Ha, you're funny. That's not going to happen. They are more likely to put sourcing for 7 before Locutus
I think you put more thought into that than scopley ever did
So if I spend for the expensive pack and do all the events for this OFP, I would get less than 20% of the shards needed to upgrade any one of the officers in it. Asking people to spend $100 and getting to start one rare armada as the only immediately tangible benefit doesn't seem like the best way to generate revenue.
back to back to back to back fleet commander spend SLBs? slow clap.
Looks like whales spend a lot during that slbs so they paste patterns
SLB event is some kind of joke in case of rewards?
Wow Scopely.... just wow... A mining event that is crucial as part of finishing the Officer Arc Overflow during Incursions... you need your head examined.
23 ops and first place is a G2 materials + avatar? are u serious?
And the SMS, it realy looks like a deepin a hole with a dirt just to "have something" around.
Not gonna lie, that “gift” was weak and pathetic.
Y'all really need to listen to the players. That Incursion "gift" was really an insult. You didn't give us anything last month, just a $99 pack that you claimed was "asked" for and zero to anyone that couldn't buy. Listen to us. Also, is there going to be an event store to spend the currency in?
Also, can you make the second FC slot when filled actually score? I have CC lvl 44. Spock is seated in the second seat and only getting standard points, not the x2 that is advertised for having him slotted. Thanks. (Don’t worry, not going to hold my breath, and I am sure a red will tell me that he is supposed to be in the MAIN seat 😋)
needed 140 for an upgrade, but its still insultingly bad
Snapchat filters... really? What a waste of scopely resources..
😄 told you xD its like a puting dirt into a hole.
like i said before, company sold, we dont care a lot xD
Any hope that the "Incursion" for all servers not happen and finding other alternatives to the "Incursion" event?
Alternate ideas - if this is simply a cleaning house scenario - any ship or station which has not been touched in 30, 60, or 90 days, be identified as an active target - not sure what the reasonable time frame might be, but then it is not a full out invasion of the larger ships having their way with everyone else.
Any ship, but most importantly, ships below lvl 20, should be disconnected from a resource after 24 hours (zero node).
There should be level zones (lvl 1 - 10 can only attack 1-10, 11-15 only able to attack 11-15, 16-20 only able to attach 16-20, 21-25 should only be able to attack 21-25, etc.) this provides a more challenging environment, instead of lvl 30 attacking anything down to lvl 20, there is nothing sporting about that for anyone, other than the unfair sportsmanship of the higher level low lifes who simply love to dominate everyone else.
Feedback on Incursion on my European Server: FANTASTIC. Barely noticable and incursion works without any bugs 😍
Incursion event store is missing so I can't spend my gift currency.
Anyone else's FC Spock Explorer event scoring wrong? Spock in the chair is supposed to give double points, but doesn't. Not only a visual, I checked the actual score from the tab.
Incursions = 💩on a good day.
see how I packed the same message using nice words?
I did too
I think you're unfairly applying the idea that sportsmanship is actually a feature scopely is shooting for.
@sinful heart Spock has to be on left side.
i m more interested in buying a pill that makes your manhood growing 5-10 cm bigger ) - i m an old man and understand nothing about those cryptos )
But i agree, stfc discord is the best place for looking for ppl with more money then brains )))
Better fleet commander sourcing please. Too many FC SLB back to back and many of us have only sourced the one free to play.
There won’t be bugs with so few servers involved it’s when they roll it out to everyone not sure how this was a test ?
How is Incursion running for US15 & US20?
Where is incursion event store?
You aren’t supposed to have it unless you are US15/20
What? Event store? If we aren't supposed to have event store unless we are 15 or 20, why did they send incursion coins as compensation gift?😃
Yes retrieving events!
Best event EVARRR!
There is no benefit to having to manually join the apex slb. Please undo that.
Apex, faction hunt, and all of the FC hostile events one one day. That...is a lot of hostile killing in 1 day. Maybe they can plan a bit better....
Its stupid we have to join the apex event.
no more apex events until the spawn rate is increased by 500%
gets me every week!
cant see any of the event requirements
Where are the new exchange systems? They seem to have disappeared??
Event requirements all retrieving, armadas are not showing as being run, but at least you get the warning before starting. Lag, disappearing systems
Imagine how bad it would be if they hadn't cancelled new bug install on Monday!!!
Now armada links are not working! How can you guys screw up something basic to the game?
Scopley did a system restore! 😂 .
Because they have had lots and lots of practice screwing things up? 🤣
Retrieving
Systems are back up but someone forgot to turn armada spawning back on. Nothing has respaned in more than 5 minutes and it's just a bunch of stellas floating around.
yeah retrieving event scores great
This game is starting to become unplayable between the lag, getting booted and restarting and event information no showing it may be time to find another game to spend my time on
events not showing information. it still says "retrieving". yes i have restart game 2 times. please fix your event information.
TZime to find a game that works
Game is legendarily screwed up today!
Events are balanced around 40ish kills for the most part, if you're needing 350, then you're aiming too low.
I would love to know when Scopely is going fix the xslb to be 1v1 instead of 1v2. The 1v2 format is a money grab and screws every player that is not a whale in the game.
That's unnecessary. If you aren't positioned to do them in the 40ish kills, then your development is lower than what they expect for someone of your ops level. I'd skip the event in this situation and try to prepare for the next time it runs.
"rEdUcE tHe gRiND"
I'd do the FH events first, and see how close you are from that.
apex elite slb needs to be reworked. people staring at exchange systems to jump on armadas all day is pretty sad for 'new exciting features'
If you're self-censoring like that, then you already know the words aren't allowed. Bypassing the automod isn't allowed.
needs more spawns please.
Use nice words. Weirdly feedback is more likely to be read then
Faction has a last milestone 1220 points.
40 kills would be 30p/kill.
Thats a lvl 50+ hostiles. How can this be possible at ~ops 41/42?
you have a good point that there's a lot of grind, but faction hunt's grind is exagerated.
small enemies score high points, it can be completed much faster with more ships in a lower level system.
My record is 7.5 minutes per faction.
Faction hunt isn't scaled like hh events are. They're more designed to be completed with multiple ships and aiming at lower level hostiles.
Oh it was just aimed at the other events, gotcha.
IMO still to much grind for one day. 🖖
eclipse armada spawn rate needs to be increased on Apex days especially
why do we need to "join" the Apex Exile SLB? Why not just remove the requirement to join and let the points tally for all?
And the delay caused me to do a few armadas not knowing the requirements to sign up thanks Scopley
Because once you get the skin, you are supposed to stop joining so everyone can get it with the leaderboard
then they shouldn't give research credits
I know. But they think people will stop joining
if they want to do that, they should make a special event for those that don't have the refits...and have them autojoin it. From personal experience and observation, people will join and win every solo leaderboard that they can, just because they can, and $%#& everyone else...
Yep, we said the same
I remember with the old apex skin event - it just stopped showing up once you unlocked the skin
That one don't work like that
Other than as a pointless task designed to frustrate players, what is the purpose of forcing us to join the Apex Armada event every week?
Their reasoning was explained above.
Yet when I got the Opus Grande Skin that event disappeared for me. Did the one programmer who understood how to do this quit?
@fading kiln server 186 armadas not respawning in new eclipse systems
Not sure the player you just tagged can do anything about that
the new apex framework just results in 'run 100+ lvl40+ armadas to place in top 10. maybe'. this was a predictable outcome. almost like their 'improve QoL' msg from Dec was all a lie.
this doesn't make sense: the rewards for apex exile SLB does not give shards for the skin (at least for me, who already has it). So if the purpose was to only "join" for those who don't have the shards, you are not giving the right feedback to people. All they see is another SLB, which of course, they join, because there is no connection to the skin. It gives tokens and research points which everyone needs. So my suggestion: just make the SLB autojoin like most SLBs
Why have so many other events during SLBs?
way too many grind events in one night that don’t overlap, or barely overlap. it’ll take hours if you want to do them all…. And again… faster eclipse armada respawns please!!!!!!! Fiscally the right choice as we can use our armada credits and some may even have an excuse to buy epic directives, QoL also the right choice as we can actually participate without staring at a blank system for 30 minutes waiting for something to spawn and be first! A few lvl 40 eclipse systems is a step in the right direction but no where near enough!!
Battleship Hunt, Swarm Hunt, 3 x faction hunt, Eclipse hunt and an additional eclipse hunt. I think there's not enough hostile hunt events today, you can easily give us more. A Borg hunt and a jem Hadar hunt are missing. And maybe a solo arma event to topple everything up.
//That's sarcasm for those who didn't notice.
Just do the first faction hunt or parts of it with an Interceptor hunting battle ships. Then do the rest of faction hunt with your preferred ship. You don‘t need to hunt Swarms, because any hostile will score here.
Your Event planning could still be better. 2 Kirk Battle SMS, 2 Apex Battle SMS and 3 Faction Hunt Battle SMS. Maybe scheduler could be worse but this would be not easy ...
Shhh..I like all the events
Why send all my ships to do FH, when I gotta dedicate one to Apex
1 away team bp event is more than enough per month. It could be lined up with the away team slb, too.
They obviously have no understanding of human nature then. Folks will hoard anything they can just to deny others. This game actually encourages that behavior.
Are you trying to burn ppl out, youre doing a great job at it
yeah, I don't do the Apex hunter, because it's a pain for little reward...
Apex: Finding any rare armadas is next to impossible. Meanwhile the 45 epics are gradually filling up all the 40s systems
Armada event without armadas. Nice going Scopely. 🙈 🤮
Jfc people have lives outside of this game. You think you have enough events today?
is it just me or does faction hunt rewards not scale well? i remember at 30s thinking it was great rewards with rss, recruit tokens, and credits. but now in low 40s, its giving me...100 unc rss? and less credits than 1 ATA reward for a heck of a lot of grinding...
WHY do we have to JOIN this event????????? I can’t understand this for the life of me. Guess I won’t have a chance of competing this week since I didn’t realize sooner.
