It doesn't change for g5, except the mats given get 1 extra star... It's paltry for the g5 economy. I can get more uncom mats from a refinery pull than all 4 milestones of FH combined. ~100 g5 uncom, when you need...tens of thousands for any kind of upgrade? Yep...I only do it now if I got nothing else to do for an hour, or am tiering up lvl26 ships to scrap.
#💬-events-feedback
1 messages · Page 18 of 1
The APEX, Faction Hunt etc events are designed for lower level players, they are not worth the time for any player lvl 53 and above. I don't do them anymore (ops 58) and enjoy free evenings instead. Just ignore them and enjoy RL instead. As you may have figured out, Scopely really doesn't care a flying panda about what their players want 🤣 so I would advise to just don't waste your energy being upset 😀
How about everybody stops whining over a lot of rewards today, my god.
Don't have time to do events? Then don't 🤦♂️
Don’t cross post
It’s so that players who don’t care about the items in there can still help their alliances without taking a spot away from people who actually want the loot
Doesn’t get better in the late 40’s. 96 unc 4* at ops 49, whoo hoo!
Agreed, this is indeed a good option on busy days - although that doesn’t mean as well that we shouldn’t try and ask for better in terms of balancing the really quiet days with days like today which are bonkers busy and hard to get full overlap on.
This topic is called event feedback!!! Therefore, all write in what is not ok or what could be improved. Unfortunately despite so many feedbacks not much happens from Scopely side! Next is mostly negative feedbacks because Scopely has no interest on players. Important the money!
This is stupid. Why does this say 6days? It’s an event that happens once a week now on Thursday’s and it’s getting this stupid time crap for when you can draw it. Let people spend there stuff how and when they want!!
It's so utterly pointless that one have to join the Eclipse Armada SLB, before winning armadas count! 🐒 💨
How about changing the Borg event today to include anything higher than a lvl 33 hostile for scoring. Wth
Can we please get this updated to the new systems? Ridiculous it still hasn’t been fixed.
A pathetic insolence from scopely! When will you finally realise that NOBODY wants to shoot down 100s of probes?
@icy cairn @wanton copper what's the point of the larger Borg systems if they don't score in today's event? Can you explain why you have a Borg event and only 33 and lower probes score?
It's also unfortunate that some events don't have lower level equivalents, so despite an announcement that there'd be three FC SMS each day, below certain levels people only get 2. There's not a generic lowbie "kill hostiles" for the corresponding Eclipse Hostiles or whatnot events.
Ugh. Well I guess at least that makes sense. Still annoying. But I guess I get it.
Is this some kind of joke? You can shove it up your 4th point of contact if it is scopy.
Seriously, only Borg L33 and under?
Do you expect anything else? It should be obvious by now that the devs don't play and don't care.
Surely this is some sort of mistake?
Add new systems and dont put them into events..scoply logic
Nope, 2nd or 3rd time they ran it like this since the new Borg probe systems were introduced. It's apathy not a mistake.
yeah, this borg event scoring is horribly outdated. Suggest we all not participate in the event so maybe they will fix it. but of course nobody will, so they have no incentive to change it
🤨
Use better words
@wanton copper
Pls fix:
Make it 33+ instead of 33[stop]
Also, add assimilated ferengi traders to the new systems.
Yep. Totally silly this is 33 and under. I'm not wasting a transwarp token to go down there.
@scopley 💩
It may not be apathy. We all know what the risk is any time $copley's crack coding team touches existing code . . . . It may actually be fear that the "fix" might just erase all of the borg systems or some similar disaster
<@&509691205798592532> tell scopely to give points for 36+ borg probes. what is this ridiculous nonsense with them not counting 🤌
The absence of points for those has been raised
You know, in events past where we were required to use tokens, they gave us a gift of tokens, that didn’t happen this time. Also, seems like they just didn’t update the event for the new Talios mechanic. Maybe just copied and pasted?? I don’t know how to code, so I don’t know if thats how it worked.
We use our nice words here because you’re talking about human beings. We said the same thing, but I did it in a way that doesn’t break the server rules and doesn’t belittle human beings. Do better 🙂
Apparently event planners aren’t aware that we’ve moved on already
Hey, I paid a lot of real money upgrading my new borg probe hunting Talios ship... I can't wait to use it on the vidar events so the grind isn't awful and I'm not sitting here all day fighting 1000 other players in the same system for event points.... oh wait
Any other place in the world where customer service is needed, for PAYING customers, and is actually somewhat good at their job: "We apologize you're frustrated sir/mam, I understand where you're coming from, let me see what we can do about it". Scopley Discord mods: "How DARE you get angry over a service you're PAYING for , foLlOw OUR RULES, do bEtTer!" (insert eye roll here)
Throwing money at something doesn’t give you a right to act like you own the people you speak of or to. Basic human decency. Conduct yourself with some decorum please 🙂
Why does scopely hate the player base so much?
We are spinach
they actually just wanted us to be all together in the 33 systems, no hate lol
They made a benchmark test of the 33 systems by directing all 35+ player into this systems 🤣
So not really hate, just pure contempt?
Actually I stand corrected - I'd assumed my lower level members got a generic hostile hunt equivalent in place of the borg probe hunt, as in some past events. Instead, it seems they (level ~15s just starting on their FCs) got 3 the first day, 2 the second, and 1 the third. Not 3 days of 3.

The frustration is understandable, but it took me 3 minutes to do 25 Borg hostiles, so not that much😃
fix the copypasta FC borg event that doesn't reward above lvl33 probes. pretend to acknowledge new content that's now months old.
I am shooting Borg 38 probes and get zero points. Is this a bug or designed to frustrate the community?
Come on folks. Fix the Borg event. I don't need to waste a cell killing level 33 probes when I can be killing level 46's like I normally do... @wanton copper @icy cairn@tropic ibex
Restart your game 🙂
😄
Vi'dar/Talios reminds me of an Aloe Vera plant on it's side 😉
The Vi'dar is my favorite. Maybe this is why. 😛
it's a spicy cactus lol 😄
Thanks for getting the Borg event fixed. Much appreciated
Props to Scopely for a quick fix in the borg probe event.
Congrats on the fast fix for the Borg event. Would have been nice to put an announcement out about the fix so people actually knew it was there. Also nothing for those of us he should have already completed the event or have now used a transwarp token for no reason. @icy cairn @wanton copper @tropic ibex Come on guys where is this better communication you were ment to be adopting?
glad they fixed it. here's some aloe vera aliens.
Any server 15 or 20 on here to offer us some feedback in how the Incursions went?
Streamers had all kinds of great info, including sneak peek of the next arc...checkout their twitches
Borg event fixed? I don't see any fix. Even now, the event still shows scoring only for up to L33. Took me 3 trips to grind those little borg hostiles. Would've been more except I also used up some ViDar bonus loot exocomps too.
For those of you that completed the event. You got a fresh run for free with fresh rewards. Bek did post the new event on here but it wasn’t announcement worthy so you can find it pinned on #💬-general-feedback where loads of people asked.
Clear localisation cache
Do you guys do that on purpose? Everyone complains about too much grinding, so you are like, “OK, then - triple faction hunt!” Worst event in the deck, stupid excessive grinding wise. Cut the point requirement by about two thirds, and it would be just OK, but still a lot of grinding. Dump that event, or revise it drastically. The players don’t want it.
I don't know what was "free with fresh rewards." Just more grinding using more tokens and exos.
The event was reset. You could earn all MS with the new scoring and the milestones were the originals.
I cleared localization. Yes, the popup scoring info is updated. But the event is still completed. If you're saying I am able to do it again and score extra, that is not the case.
Oh 👀 apparently it was reset but idk just the odd report on that
I didn’t check myself
Alas...
I’m not showing any changes. Still shows scoring capped on level 33 borg.
Never mind. Localization clearing fixed it.
Please add ship parts (uncommon, rare) to Faction Hunt Event rewards; Explorer parts for Federation, Battleship for Romulan and Interceptor for Klingon. 🖖
I much prefer doing things right the first time rather than have to repeatedly explain how the patched up thing appears/works.
This once again shows the lack of preparation and verification from scopely. It doesn’t have to be difficult either. Just have somebody that knows about features verify stuff such as events before you launch them.
The event was “fine” as was, but there were concerns raised that it was not conducive to efficient grind. That was addressed. It was not the big deal a vocal few set out to make it seem 🙂
i just noticed that the borg event has changed..... first shoot 33 hostiles and now all levels are fine. but i played with the old conditions so do we get compensation for it? i think it needs to be equal for everyone and not how it's been resolved now....
No comp
I agree that it was not that bad. I conpleted it before it was updated.
The point I was trying to make is that once again a simple copy paste happened without apparently any thought being given about implementing changes to the game itself to the event. In other words: no verification of events being planned, which is basically the same as what happens every arcfall aka bug introduction day. This bad habbit of doing things without some sort of quality assurance.
In this particular case it may not have been that bad, I’ll grant you that, there have been far worse to happen that just a bit of debugging could have helped scopely and the player base.
The flip side, this is a “down week”, where the teams behind the scenes are very heavily focused on the new content that will hopefully come soon, and while I am sure there are many jokes to be had about bugs in that this week (and last week) the events are by design copy-paste, low energy stuff so that the team aren’t losing too much time to them.
In the not too distant past it was Faction Hunt, CoW and Apex and that was your lot - I for one am grateful both for a broader spectrum of events and the extra loot that comes with them, even if the price is every once in a while we as a community need to shout up and say “yo folks, could we get these updated for new content please?” 🙂
Also true, though I wouldn’t call two faction hunts and two CoW a broader spectrum. The fleet commander events spiced things up (and also here because of the aforementioned copy paste event).
Which basically proves my point that some sort of review moment between planning some events and committing to the planned events.
Based on your explanation, last week would have been a calm week and therefore some extra thought could have gone into yesterday’s event. Doing so would have led to smoother events and less fuss, which in the end can only help scopely and discord mods.
Would appreciate Syndicate Advancement being part of future event announcements
Yea. Would it kill you to announce events? I already claimed 7500 syndicate xp today then you drop a unannounced heroic
Also would be nice to have announcement for Franklin A skin event, officer recruit (mat spend) that also weren’t in the previous event listing for the week.
so we got a fix yet for broken comisc clean up event store not showing on 114?
Come back in 30 minutes. That’s the fix
technically.. no... THAT is the workaround... the fix would be for them to reset the event store to show up when the event starts
Fair point
is the event stor for cosmic cleanup level based now ? since my alliance member has it but i can only see apex event ?
ty Krap think i need coffee since i missed that
gotta wait another 13 minutes for it to show up.. thats the conversation we were just talking about.
still no cc event sotre 114
👍🏻
or s84
nor 56
restarted game... no effect (still missing)
nor 110....well some have it others not
sack the devs sleeping on the job🤣
Not visible in 83 yet either
Are we EVER going to have another Borg event? With the armada and officer XP SLBs? Or is that officially dead with the introduction of all the new Borg content?
finaly thank you sorted
out of interset on iss jelley event can we not have the rewards tire out so first prise 100% then x amount of shard brown to to lowest of 10 rewards rahter then one get all tuff to others took part?
Always always claim syndicate xp just after event reset, syndicate event does not get announced-I’m not saying it’s right it is just the way it is
Yea normally during main arcs i do. Its a horrible time for me (1pm) but i try to. Non arc i just claim it when i get up 😦
communication or the lack thereof is the main issue i have. They even put the wrong skin SLB up today, it was supposed to be Infinitus 😄
This is amusing, a refit event for a ship they essentially made useless by introducing ex Borg. The only time my Franklin A gets used is if I feel like killing swarms on Sundays now.
Would be nice to get SOME acknowledgment from Scopely regarding the events being wrong 😡
@wanton copper @icy cairn Maybe I'm not reading the "conditions to score" correctly... (Or it's broken) but recruit PIC Worf & Riker SMS states "regular directives"... Hence starting swarmadas using my rare regular directives should be counting since other armada events specify FKR etc. AND it clearly does not exclude swarmadas in description for both PICARD SLB and SMS...
Aye, not only did we get wrong event, but no event at all for those of us with the skin. Nothing to incentivize us to go help with the swarmadas since the loot drops from them are the worst thing in the game
So when are the incursion bugs going to be worked out here it's been 5 months already
LOL Undue... 🙂 where have I heard this before 🙂
Where is the Infinitus event that was supposed to run today? I’m still 9 shards short 😭😭😭😭😭
It magically transformed into a terror slbAnd not event the full set of terror events. Just the slb....
I it was a terrorble choice that will have infinite controversy 😂
How about some notice on the Syndicate event next time? I know I am supposed to be grateful that $copley gives us any events when we have these two week breaks between arcs, but the no notice routine smells of another cheap effort to force a bunch spending to even get to tier two
like i said, nobody give a 🐑 from devs or CMs ;d im can bet they dont even have a word from Devs ;d just have to smile to everyone on every 🐑 scopely is throwing at us ;d
So still nothing from scopely on compensation for the PICARD events screw up...
Which one was that?
both PICARD events don't count rare dees for starting swarmadas even though they're clearly not excluded from scoring in event descriptions
When did run the armadas?
2 day event that's running ATM. started yesterday noon. Ran mine during the afternoon I guess... why? Swarm armadas use regular rare directives and aren't excluded from either PICARD SLB or SMS...
Contact CS to get the points added to both events or they can give back the directives
They're not counting for anyone in my alliance so I'm assuming this issue isn't restricted to my client. Does starting swarm armadas count for you?
Both swarmada I started, we're counted in both pic events
Yes problem appears to be resolved here. CS is confirming it was only a delayed scoring issue
do we have a eta on next arc hopefully not anothe officer flash 
Tuesday?
I guess desly was for enter A-G refits lol
….and @here ……scope is wondering , why loose players? 🤡🫵 feedback? 😂🤣😂🤣 joke cc @fringe plaza
It says it in the title it’s paid event btw
It’s always been a paid event. Surprised some people are only copping that now.
Definitely tomorrow…that’s as late in the month it can start
@wanton copper , what happened with the Infinitus SLB posted here by you? #⭐-official-announcements message Thanks 🙂
🤣 at last ty
The infinitus event was swapped out for the FA terror skin instead.
Any possibly way Scopley can release the new patch notes/arc information maybe 1 day before it’s released that way we can prepare ourselves for what is coming??? I just assume since tomorrow is the new release so they should already have the patch notes ready to go prior to maintenance
Doubt we'd get them a day early. They've released them 8h before the events go live up til now.
They gotta wait till they bring the servers down...otherwise we'd riot early
Can’t wait to read how the new content marks the impending death of the game 😆
New level 1 Officers , a free ship after 7 months once bps collected, new refinery and event currency to eventually clog up the rest of unused / defunct tokens , currencies etc. You're welcome 👍
Come on. Don't be so negative.
Talios was quick 😉
For god sakes, stop putting more and more armadas. Why don't you fix the annoyance of expansion cube armadas coordination first?
So most players are annoyed with the complexity of expansion cubes. And what does scopley do about it? Double down with even more complicated armada targets.
Hopefully the rewards will be worth the trouble this time
Not even holding my breath on that one. I see this as another nail in the head/coffin honestly. Rewards in this game are always pathetic unless you spend through the nose, which kinda makes them paid content, not rewards.
Voyager, do you copy?
great guys, lets more even more freaking useless pips...now its on the buildings too instead of the menus. what are you thinking...seriously
Hi, in contrast to the freebooter systems, the respawn in the delta sector doesn't balance out the ship types... so farming is not very easy.....
Are you guys serious.
Voyager arc..., so get ready for the release ( at some point) of another 1 hit wonder ship with another consumable requto use its special ability.... I assume, in keeping with Scopely's usual money grab tactics. 🤦
so yet another damn research tree, you really should shutdown your discord if you are not gonna listen to your players
I just turned in a mission. Anyone else getting this message?
You have 54 active missions in your mission list?
52 archived, 5 active
Yep. You have too many active missions. You need to complete some
please stop messing with event start times.... we have daily events starting at one time and now the BP is keyed to a different start time... you are making this unwieldly. 😦
and now its 2 hours early instead of 1
and of course there's 5+ new currencies!!!! always gotta love that!
Arcfall day always starts a bit early
I just delivered one - shouldn't there be an open spot, regardless?
Not 100% sure but I do know the message you got above was from having so many missions
I'll get another one done, and check it out. I appreciate it!
I believe the cut off is 54 or 56 with certain missions not being counted towards that total. I can’t remember which ones but I believe it’s the gold border ones that don’t count.
Grinding close to 100 hostiles when there is new content to explore is just silly. This is the first time that I haven't purchased the battlepass on Arc launch and I am not sure if I will this month because of the continued lack of testing and planning by Scopely.
so compensation for not giving leader chests to the one that started the formation armadas?
@icy cairn @wanton copper Soo Counterpoint mission step 3(defeat formation armada and claim the chest) isn’t recognizing that we all claimed a chest after defeating one. Be it an armada starter or participant. We beat one node with other alliances and all 3 as one alliance…. Yes, we are updated and on pc, iOS and Android
I'm told both these missions are only visible to ops34+.
so why is this event visible to lower levels if there is no way to even attempt to participate?
Scopely HQ - "you know what the players really like? Having to grind 200+ hostiles on the first day of the arc."
This, and why does everyone's BP have diodes on milestone 2 when nobody below 34 can use them?
Formation armadas=failure. Unattainable mission goals unless you’re level 50 or above=failure.
where do we start the counterstrike missin?
rubish ark mostly for ops above 26+.
Well scopely, you exactly know what to do not bringing more players ingame and enjoy it 🤷♂️
Seems something isn’t working as it should be
Pop up screens for Dawise and Quarra show they contain intercepters but they contain battleships.
Restart your game. It wants you to open the other chest
Correct, after restart visited the battlelog, and I could open a chest 👍🍺
It's great that Scopely increased the lag time. now I spend more time waiting than playing
Event planners really hate people on +50s? Takes forever to finish the events and rrs.
So I estimate, that for Cat and Mouse I need to shoot 150 hostiles. That is by design or a bug?
It’s been upped based on how last time ran but the feedback of too high MS’s has been passed on
Please for the love of god, reduce the grind, we were getting somewhere now we have events that make you want to give up, how many red hostiles do you want us to kill
so many single events in their OWN BUCKET .. you know what rhymes with bucket ... you guessed it 💩
No I dont know what rhymes with bucket. 🙏
I think the goal; is to grind 24/7 when the players ask for less grind what do they do? add more grind! i think the goal is to run off all of the players, has to be with what comes out of the team
I for one have enjoyed the new arc so far (on launch day...lol). None of the mission grinds have been terrible for me. As a lone voice in a sea of "this sucks im quitting" post......thanks for the new arc and new stuff Scopley.
Do the devs ever check their calculators? I mean great, 2 stupid, boring, "kill that hostile" events with a couple hundred kills each, which you cannot combine with most other things.
WHEN WILL YOU GUYS NOTICE THAT PEOPLE ARE PLAYING THIS GAME FOR LEISURE AND NOT AS A JOB ?
@mighty star Devs at Scopely are chosen for their inability to use a pocket calculator when determining the amount of things to kill.
They also assume players play 24 hours a day in order to achieve the laughable rewards
When you add the daily grinding and the faction grinding and other optional things like Borg and loot the grinding becomes 75% of the game
then you must be doing something wrong, @bitter field . the game is 100% grinding , with another 25% lag and 10% restarts due to bugs and freezing content
The respawn rate of the different hostile types in the new systems is a catastrophe! I am hunting Explorers with the Newton in Neken as the only one in the system, and after some time there are only Battleship and Interceptor hostiles left. Seriously?! How long should I wait until finally respawn more Explorers? In the freebooter systems this works perfectly.
wait, you didn't leave your day job to fully focus on STFC? no wonder you complain... 😛
As for a fix? it only got introduced this arc... don't mind that the event ends tomorrow... maybe, just maybe, a hotfix can be expected near the end of the arc.
Noooo, don’t just fix it. I don’t want that, I want it in a pack in store
119kills against cardasian hostiles + even more agains the new hostiles this is the worest start since a while
Hirogen kills need a multiplier for the cat and mouse event otherwise I fail to see the point. A number of folks cba finishing their sms atm
You have to do better. To advance the mission, a team has to run and win all 3 of the mega madas. Then battle log says partial so you must reload and then it turns green in the Battlelog so claim the other chest. The mission advances. Please do better.
@wanton copper @icy cairn why is your killing game limited to specific ships that players may or may not have. I am 46 and will be 49 after a spend event. I don't have a 46 ship. I have 1 faction locked but not the credits to outright buy a 46 rare ship. I have the credits for the other two factions that I am working on locking but you are forcing players to have specific ships to complete an event. That is ridiculous if they know how to use lower level ships to complete dailies. This is just wrong.
If you want players to use specific ships then those ships should be unlocked at those levels or the BP given to them to make the ship. If you want to do that, I will gladly build and use it.
To encourage you to get ships approximate for your lvl.
If you are 46-49 and dont have a 46... you are the exact target audience for those event types
@wanton copper @icy cairn why did you put artifact and formation armada slb start a day after the opening of the arc and posted the event schedule half a day after arc started. Me and bunch of other people naturally started playing and exploring and new mechanics and now we are punished for it. Why didn't you just start it at the arc open
4* ship parts from a 50+ hostile? Seems about right
@icy marsh agree, mission should not be a gift the day before an event with the calendar not referencing said mission @icy cairn abs @wanton copper please correct this retroactively for players. This is a very exciting arc and know not everything runs smoothly at first. Please fix for players.
Any chance we can get the Talios and/or Defiant added to the Killing Game SMS, at least in the 35-41 bracket? Doesn't seem to be any reason to have the Franklin-A and not the Talios at the very least.
So far not impressed at all by the Event Schedule. Looks too light, with too few meaningful SLBs (outside of the auctions), especially grindable ones. And no I don’t count mining SLBs(ugh) and the one Muddmada SLB shouldn’t count either cuz of Apex Thursdays. Where’s Heavy Hitter? Or a Recruit Officer or ATA SLB?
@wanton copper @ Bek why give us a mission today if it for an event tomorrow! You know people are going to do a new mission.
Not find the mission light years and echoes anywhere. Anyone have any clues?
They should be in the holodeck.
I have been checking all day. Updated my app and restarted several times. I am level 31. Is it for a higher level and for some reason it’s one of my events?
Why do the fossil bits in my inventory not match the ones in my artifact building?
I think they're L34+.
Thanks. Frustrating to search for something that is not available.
I may be alone in saying this...but is there any chance we can leave the 50+ Delta quadrant hostiles giving g4 parts, please? Freebooters already give what most need on a daily basis for g5 part pulls, but I have to drastically go out of my way to go farm g4 parts in Beta Sector (which is usually crowded) system, and everyone in the mid to upper 40s knows that parts are a MASSIVE bottleneck for g4 ships. At least if you're going to make us kill 100-200 Hirogen hostiles in an event, I'd like to get part drops I don't need to dedicate hours to getting somewhere else. But, yeah... G5 parts stay with Freebooters and fringe space hostiles, g4 should stay with Delta quadrant hostiles.
Mh, that this frame is just on Rank 1 …..honor more gamers with it and give peeps, who don’t pay for the building to enhance, a chance too 💜
I like challenging myself to look how I can outplay others, that’s the game right 😃 it’s not the first situation like this, but today I felt saying it 😄
Artefacts not showing in build but in my inventory- discovery ones (13 in inventory but only 3 in building) also artefact tokens show 3.7k but inventories showing 4K+
they are showing in Inventory cos thats what they are,
Whats are rewards for this slb?
Same issue
I am ops 49, first is 1,8B Dil, 399 rare gas and 1443 uc gas. Thats a May ish less scrap not the world on matts but everything helps currently 😂🙏 and the frame is cool, i like it 😃 Second/third 1,26B Dil 279 rare gas 1k uc gas...
Thx 🙂
Dear Scopely. In Event Cardassians , systems 48 are missing for hostiles 47 to 49 . Add them , thanks . I can't get to system 50.
where can I find the mission "Beyond Uncharted" ?
They don't have them ships added to CoW, they sure has heck won't add em to a new event. Scopes prove me wrong.
Retrieving lag issue again
Me too.... Todays new events are just.... loading!
Retrieving missions, YES!
Gathering Resources SLB broken. I just mined 1m G3. Nothing counted
It's simple just go kill retrieving...
.then mine som e retrieving.... And start a few retrieving....
That whole event is missing! Great job Scopely!! Giving us an event schedule, that is already wrong at the second day! We are planning accordingly, I put ships in Trans Warp and spend Token - for nothing!! What are you about to do here @wanton copper @icy cairn ?
Should we be guessing what all the retrieving events might look like @wanton copper ?
so what do todays events entail. retrieving... is not very helpful with a trivia
Not sure how to organize ow calls of 80 players via chat for form armadas 😁
still waiting scopely....
@strange flume
What happened to this event?
Assist The Federation
Gathering Resources - SMS (Level 10+ Solo Milestone)
May 10-11
The Federation is thrilled to learn that the Voyager has been found and is pulling out all the stops to find a way to get them back home. To that end, they are offering a large contract to Independants to help them secure Materials and Resources for the Federation.
Gathering Resources - SLB (Level 10+ Solo Leaderboard)

So we spend in game currency to prep for an SLB that isn’t launched. Sounds par for the course. Thanks predictable Scopley
Retrieving...
@wanton copper really how does this retrieving issue keep happening?
cant even enter the artifact building to work on the stupid event that you guys broke
It kind of hard to do trivia when the clue is retrieving.
No event at all for me I’m not even getting the event at all
Where ist the announced mining slb?
Its been 1 day and the calendar already isnt being followed. What kind of QC goes into this? Scopely could not possibly have gathered enough intel in 24 hours to push this event elsewhere.
Mining event missing.
Missing events, broken buildings, broken game mechanics - this arc is a fail @wanton copper @icy cairn
do better.
the sms that asks to spend tokens is undoable for people that bought chests yeasterday since it last only 2 days and the countdown on the chests is 3 days, you should have maybe launched the event yesterday or the new store (and mission) today
Edit: i was partially wrong, somehow I missed the "acquire tokens part", anyway this was a bad decision on the part of the ark designer
@wanton copper where are missions to do mission event?
Holodeck
anyone know what species 2000 is?
Im sitting like an idiot on mining node, wasted like 3 hours for mining for slb, just to figure out scopely messed up again…great
Cardassians
2 Day SMS event on a mechanic that has 3 day cool down between refines. Nice going 💩
@icy cairn @wanton copper Please let the $copley event runner know that they have really oudone themselves with this garbage

So who do I talk to to get a refund on my wasted g5 mining tokens? 🤣
Seriously? You are just correcting the event calendar? What a bad move! I am super disappointed!!
I would like to add my 👎 to that as well. Total and absolute epic fail.
It's because they are too busy rebuilding a website that no one uses or cares about. #priorities
I dont even get surprised anymore. it just shows like incompetence getting bigger and bigger seriously
Why are things in the store so expensive?
$20 for an additional investigator is a pretty ridiculous price.
you guys lying that in-game news is broken, but you put out the same information on discord @vagrant topaz
Imagine putting out a schedule and then actually managing to stick to it
#💫-event-information is updated alongside the IGN. The moderator isn’t on yet so it hasn’t been updated
Token wasted and Support will be a mess as always
What a disgusting way to treat customers, and then making jokes about tribbles? Try humility, you're not going to make us happier by treating it lightly.
Until today i thought that scopley has an armarda of apes doing the IT stuff for them. But by today i need to change my opinion and send a big excuse to all apes ☝️
So... I'm not scoring in the artifact hunt even though I've acquired tokens, and I can't refine anything because the reset is longer than the event. Thanks, Scopely.
Host and do the premium which I believe is on a shorter cool-down. 🖖🏻
??? What happened to this?
Event info in discord is built off of IGN or from internal sources when available, in this case, it was only from IGN.
Maybe someone should point scopely that this game is dead without events, most of old players login only cause of events same as mid lvl players do this as there is nothing to do in this game except endless grind, even material sourcing is not enough without events rewards, not to mention jumping from 12.5 mil points to 30 ml points in faction event for a extra 10-20 faction credits is a joke…
This is what's confusing me. The event clearly says you can score by acquiring artifact tokens. and I've acquired artifact tokens...
Annoying schedule change.
Give us new toys with 3 day cooldown then, surprise!, unannounced event change that penalises everyone who played with their new toys.
Muppets.
Having an armada event today after mostly everyone tested out how they work the day before, same with the artifacts. This is just wrong, shame on you.
@wanton copper @icy cairn
We killed all 3 armadas, yet it tells us that we just killed it partially and we were not getting a big chest!! Why is it that buggy??
very hard to join formation armadas when it's only 3 to participate per pillar: plz extend it to (at least) 5 with proportional power-up of the object
Did one of them take over 100 turns?
100 turns? How is that possible! Look at the stats. Took 5, 5, and 6 rounds.
Restart your game
That’s not it
Such a waste to set miners up for an event that was deleted that was never posted about being deleted in game or prior to the event start. Great job communicating. Scoplay should be fired.
The Artifact Event sucks. The gallery refine timer prevents me from scoring during the event. I’m done with crashing to desktop and poorly thought out events. Bye Scopely.
So, over 4k Artifact Tokens acquired over several formation armadas and no score registered. This issue is on top of the timer silliness.
Keep getting partial victory notifications when it is clearly a full. All 3 went down. Is this affecting scoring?
Restart your game, it will fix the log
What about a fix for artifact tokens not scoring and timer on converting being a 3 day cool-down? <@&509691205798592532>
$copley QC at its best
That 3day cool down was not thought out well.
World record number of ticket's raised this evening. Can't access missions. Zoom bug is back. Holodeck missions missing. Spinning wheel of doom when I try to collect 10min chests. It's the last straw for me. Sick of the never ending bugs
Formation amarda event with only 2 lvl 35 systems and one of ours is bugged and broken?!? Sort it out scopely! Only players of ops 40+ are scoring on our server.
Totally agree. Too few systems between lvl 30 and 40 and simply too few targets in the systems. The respawn timer is also far too high.
fix the chat. messages from players who wants join armadas disappearing. its annoying!
Already have multiple times, still broke no score.
server 108 just lost both low level formation armadas, and we've only just got level cap raised so almost nobody can do the higher ones. the event is dead now for almost the entire server.
Lvl 19 player, how do I hit cardassians? I can't even reach them. Need warp 25 and I don't have it
Why this didnt arrive?
It’s being updated. #⭐-official-announcements
I'm missing the new mission "lightyears & echoes" that i need to complete the Event. Searched everywhere and can't find it
it's in your holodeck if you're ops 34+, i haven't seen word on what they're doing about the event if you're not there yet
thanks for the info. obviously they do nothing about it since it is in my events and i'm on a lower level🙄
Tier up your north star
Don't have one lol
Scotty on the bridge of your envoy?
#$copley
You require more formation armadas for these events. You created a potentially fun mechanic here where alliances can coordinate to help each other in winning the trio to get the big prize. Instead it's now a race to see who gets the armada first and gambling that the winners actually have the force to do it.
Morning/afternoon/evening 🖖 all, I am confused on this new arc, especially 01sms n 02 sms, I was wondering if some one could PM me on how or explain what I am meant to do….is it a quiz, I have checked Delta sector but only a ops 38…. Please advise
It is a quiz event.
Q1, you'll need to figure out who Species 5008 represents, and then mine the materials that they usually guard. Spoiler: ||Mine crystal from Klingon territory.||
Q2, for Species 2000, you'll kill 25x of them. Spoiler: ||It's Cardassians, closest system is probably Bajor.||
Thankyou for answers, but can I ask how you came to those conclusions, is it written somewhere so I know to look rather than asking, am very greatfu
How do score Formation Armada credits?
(forgot about spoilers earlier, sorry)
Everything but the "Species ## means XYZ group" and the conclusions you draw from that should be outlined in text; past that, it's a knowledge check that you can google if you don't know the answers.
specific to #1, ||Since it's Klingon space, you can either look at what type of node is exclusive to their space vs other faction space or what they want you to mine for the dailies||
Best and yet easily overlooked clue is in the title.
It's part of ST lore. The borg give a species a numbered designation when they meet them. You can watch the shows to learn them, or check some fan sites for that info. The rest is from hints in the event description.
This event is not scoring for acquiring....
Thanks Candle, I not very good with most Quizzies🙏
is for me also not working
why are there only 2 level 30 formations? there's 150 people waiting on our server to do them and 2 get done every 15 minutes
Getting this event done is a nightmare
The level 35s are a lot more difficult and not possible to complete unless we get only our strongest players on board
this is far worse than the apex event with amount of armadas and respawns
Love this artifacts event...the folks in Ents doing only 1 mil damage, and have 60 mil milestones.
Watching folks get booted for big ship rules, cuz 4 Ents show up to a node. These formations gonna devastate some alliances
I appreciate scopley experimenting with how to make more money, but i find it extremely frustrating to run these new JOINT ARMADAS with limited space ... dont forget YOU (scopley) are limiting them to 1 start a week? hardly very inclusive. No im not tempted to buy into a new loop that is frustrating instead of fun. best of luck next arc 👍
Providing my feedback, changing the mining events that are in the calendar (without updating the calendar in game) is super annoying. I sent multiple miners into token space in preparation for that event that was completely useless now since the event was delayed or changed
Damage armada event is way too hard (ops 44, s41)
and after a while there are 0, because they all get bugged.
Damage new formation armadas, power jumps from doable with g3 unc/rares(L35) to needing g4 rares(L40). 2 max up at each level at any given time, and at least in S27, one of the L35 ones is broken, so good luck completing the event
So two out of three of the three lower formation armada systems are broken??? 💩
Please consider using a directive spend/armada win for the future Formation SMS instead of damage dealt.
So since I am only able to get to warp 24 and not warp 25 am I unable to do the 2nd part when it comes trivia?
Ah, that's an oxymoron--a contradiction in terms. There's no such thing. LOL.
they don't seem to care it is not scoring as long as they keep selling the packs with premium artifacts.
One of the nodes shows as a 4th, so since there isn't a 3rd node it stays broken.
👆 @ devs
On 139 we have the same problem with all level 35 formation armada, that they can't be startet.
I don't know how to finish formation armada event with only level 30 armada for most of our alliance. Level 40 is for many players to strong in relationship to level 35.
I'm asking for a lvl 14 player who can not reach cardassian space. how can he complete trivia 2?
I like the new formation armadas, but there are not enough of them and/or need a shorter respawn time. Should get enough directives for more than 1 armada per week. Also, the power requirement jump from a 35 to a 40 and so on is too large.
All these refineries and ya couldn’t find a place to refine directive’s daily
Ugh, Lat Mondays is more than enough. We don’t need more mining SLBs 😒🤦♂️
Its just filling space in empty „wow” events calendar when the new boss come in and give directions where stfc gonna go
Is anything going to be done to address the fact that anyone who completed the mission requiring an artifact refinery turn-in on launch day started a 3-day cooldown that precludes them from doing one during the ALB/SLB? Seems to punish players for engaging with the new content when it actually came out
This is great
Mission Key event not earning points. I just redeemed 2 keys and nothing.
Mission Key event but the main source (being the store) is under maintenance
I had to refresh, but the store works now for me
You don't get pts for spending keys. You get pts for earning them.
Pushing the gathering resources event to today>!>!> What a big dump of 💩
Question 3 of Trivia Event is missing…or is that the true challenge..?
Scopely I love you for this 😄
It is always collect the keys, not redeem them.
Too many of the events revolve around the artefacts and the formation armadas, which are not fun. They are complicated and have a painfully time gated progression, requiring months of grinding and multiple people to actually do in-game. The events were planned so bad this month all I have motivation for is the battle pass and shielding....Working people work, I'm glad the devs feel like people have time to coordinate before they play, but we don't, and personally, I'm not willing to do that for every non-battlepass event. I like the people I play with, I don't want to talk to them and coordinate stuff every time I turn the game on. I have like maybe 10 minute sessions to play during work, and that's not enough time to gather a group for these much less to even complete the events because of the unrealistic milestones. The only other time I play really is late at night, when there is time, but not enough people are on.
This arc-runner did not do a good job.
This needs adjustments. Right now this new content is basically impossible to engage with and really not worth the effort because of how long it takes.
So the whole server is expected to line up for 4 slow mining dil nodes? That's nice. Edit: see 2 down.
4 nodes for an entire server. Classic.
Once you've learned what kind of node you need to mine, you can mine it anywhere.
@worthy light I had no idea about this cooldown. When does it start? And if you know or have a hunch, what’s the reason for it?
4 F’ING DIL NODES FOR THE ENTIRE GALAXY!!!!!
No need to scream and read 2 post up
Then why dont they put that in the game!
@queen kindle does “mine anywhere” mean you can mine at just one node?
"The Killing Game-SMS (47-60 Solo Milestone)
May 15,22
Any damage dealt in Rovah between any of the following ships will score. Newton Pikum, Korinar. Enterprise-A Tribune, Hegh'ta, USS Northcutt, Corvus, Vor Cha, USS Crozier, Sanctus, Ouv'Sompek"
This is going to be really bad, whales will just kill everything and ops 47s will get no points
Here's an easy to reach spot.
can we please stop with the level-gated missions in the story arcs? lightyears & echoes isnt available to me at L32 but there's still an event to complete the missions. this is ... frustrating
Sending everyone to mine dil in a system with 4 nodes is not the most well thought out decision
Mine it elsewhere, any system works.
We can't do the Artifact Hunt or Formation Assault events because the level 30 formation armadas (all others are too strong for us right now) are all bugged on our server. Not to mention that there aren't enough of those anyway ...
Clue for 03 is misleading. Suggest you only need to mine 1, not that it’s one point for each bit mined, and you need 2000. Especially given the history of these things where you do typically only mine 1.
Is the sole reason this is a join event to piss players off?
These cooldowns are completely ridiculous. These were both collected about 3hrs after event reset last Thursday and now they are still in cooldown till Friday? 🤬
Could use events that count iso mining too
@wanton copper wish I had an easy way to see what the ops brackets were for the mining event. I used to be able to see this on stfc.space. that is, until it got taken out back and put down like a mad dog. Events section was a good boy and didn't deserve that
This has to be changed. It makes no sense that you have to manually join it.
Artifact cool-down period way tooooo long in between pulls. Also being limited to only 2 chests max a pull is also not cool. Since you can collect the artifact token pretty quickly doing tri-madas. Now I have a stack that will take me 30 days to use with the current structure. That is if I don't do anymore Tri-madas. @wanton copper @icy cairn
Agreed... what do i do with all of this? 3 days cooldown?? come on
is there a reason why we need actively join Apex Elite - slb? i, for example, missed already 2nd time to join after making a bunch of ex.armadas, without use in the end
Formation Armadas are a mess to get 3 different alliances together. It really isn't worth the effort. We all stopped yesterday.
Second Thursday in a row with WAY too many events. There’s an SLB on, give us time to actually participate
@wanton copper @icy cairn please fix the killing game so you don't have to use specific ships post 47. Not all players have 46+rare ships at 47. The cost to get them with credits is insane, even at 3k credits a day, that is still 170 days.
Most players buy a 42 ship because they are needed. By the time we get to 46, we may have 1 faction locked and working on the others. No everyone has half a mil credits to throw at 1 ship especially when you have drastically cut down the drop rates for BP. And the capital systems are jacked up half the time. You are expecting players to wait months at 46 before progressing. Why?
A simple fix is to allow 42 ships to take part or add a pve element to it. Don't exclude to many of your player base.
47 without a rare g4 will be in the lower bracket.
You can do all three nodes within the alliance, too, if people have the directives. Even the same person can call all three.
I have the mats to make 49 during a spend event.
If you go 49 then you won't be able to do that event if you don't have a rare
Mind you it's only an event. Op 49 might be more worth it
I'm Ops 29 but the SMS auto-completed for me this evening so I think they've just given it to us for free because it was impossible for us to do.
Right, that is why I am asking them to fix it. I know several others who don't have a rare that are 47+. This is just penalizing players and for what purpose? Because they are skipping a ship or don't have the faction rep or credits to buy one yet.
Bad management and events on scopleys part imo.
@wanton copper
It’s great that you guys are considering changing the timer on the formation armadas.
Has there been any thought on increasing the duration of the buff on the talios so people can do the expansion cubes more easily?
Keep the formation armada time at 15 mins.
Instead please change the Apex event to not have to click "opt in" every week.
The 3 day cool down on the normal artifact chest pull is just silly. Why is the premium spend anytime you want? Are they forcefully slowing down the building upgrade and directive pulls?
Sadly, I think we've all lost interest. It's just another Armada with a twist. It's really nothing new.
@icy cairn @queen kindle When are you going to remove the absolutely absurd requirement to JOIN the weekly apex SLB. It’s ridiculous. Unnecessary. And lose out on positioning because after doing several 45 epics and others. Realize. Fark me. Have to join. This requirement is not fair. Not warranted.
Also the respawn time for the eclipse armadas now that everyone is doing them every week is atrocious.
they need to fix the wording. the clue clearly says mine the material IN THIS SYSTEM the species call home...
You've removed a word.
Next time pick a sector a with more than just 4 rocks
It just says mine what's found in the system, not that you have to mine in said system.
After three weeks, that is on you.
You can mine the dil in any system. I did mine in territory.
How 'bout that... start a webstore based leaderboard, then that night take the webstore down for service... thanks for nuttin' Scopely.
@wanton copper @icy cairn Worst arc ever.
Please reconsider the brackets for the killing game. There is no way a L47 or L48 with a Pilum can compete with L60 (or even L50s)
Would you place a L48 in a bracket with L39s? No- you would not because it would not be fun or fair.
at the risk of being unpopular, the new Apex format is garbage. you crammed 3 days worth of events into one weekday, and it happens every week. there's a LOT to do during a battlepass, I already have to sometimes make choices about what I can afford to ignore. it made much more sense when it was the only thing going in the week or two between battlepasses. and we STILL haven't had a borg event in ages!
@uncut forges <@&509691205798592532> guys you need to take out the Join button from the Apex SLB, there is NO need for it, it making us lose score . **PLEASE **
Poor Dev.
Lol 😂. It’s a ridiculous requirement and you know it. 1. Week. 3 weeks. A year. In the end. Why in the &$1”!? Are you ok with having to press join for an SLB.
Because the intention is if you don’t need the loot for something, you don’t join so others get a chance.
We all know there are people that aren’t bothered about their peers getting a turn; they’re usually in here complaining about having to join the event.
I appreciate the free gift but WHY give me something I can't use because of the massive cooldown in the event?
0 Point elite bracket 💪
How about an SLB that runs 24h where you can only score by opening epic armada packs? Probably as exciting with the short cooldown.
The killing game sms looks so well bracketed to maintain a similar level of opponent. Until the 46 rare ships. Then they are just thrown in with everything up to and including 60 epics. Makes no sense.
Delta Quadrant event for Vulcan was poorly planned 4 nodes and no access to 3. Concern sent in to Scopley however I highly doubt they care. As I'm still waiting for a response from an "overwhelmed" department of Scopley/Savvy. LvL 14 players on 3 nodes which no LvL35 player can remove....come on Scopley/Savvy .
you can complete that in other systems, it just has to be the correct resource
Yeah I see that now..lol Pity the language used by Scopley/Savvy gives the impression you can only mine in Vulcan System otherwise I could have completed yesterday.
Thanks. 🖖
It doesn’t specify in the system
Before you say it does
Check the event card
Read the circled area, I can comprehend the English language quite well.
It does specifically say “mine the material found in the system”. It does not say “mine it IN the system”.
Bit of word play there
Mine material "found In this system." Are you implying the Education system is flawed when it comes to English Phonics and Grammar comprehension? LoL rather insulting using "Word Play" to make highly intelligent people look stupid.
I think we must return to "play to try": a game is playable if you don't know and try to know, not when you can complete an event without thinking. In other game it's wonderful to receive the "GGWP" message for being better than others in skill, knowledge and competence.
Does Vulcan system work? Go there. Are all nodes full? Try another system. Does it work? Go there or destroy OC miniers in Vulcan or simply wait for a node. Is anyone in a hurry to log out until events reset?
We seriously gotta get the building up to lvl 30 before even unlocking a rare artifact?
Trivia generally has lots of wordplay
that's just too many events all at once. I have neither the desire nor the time to complete them all. This also makes the game very indifferent by the way
Many of those new armadas are broken on server 181 and can’t be started. All three formations are available, but the error messages says, one formation is missing. 2 Lvl 40 and 1 Lvl 35 affected!!
almost all are broken on our server 1 30, 1 35 and the 40s work
what is the spices 2000 and 3259?
google impaired?
Disappointing that the 3rd place doesn't get the Frame like all the other Events for the Art Gallery event (sorry for double, was wrong chat)
If an event is for ops 10+ it should be theoretically possible for an ops 10 player to finish it, which has not been the case at all for at least two of the encrypted communications events
Ok, the dilithium mining from yesterday was already bad enough, but today is kinda messed up for (spoiler ahead about the answer to the trivia) ||people who didn't get their d'vor yet.||
Usually the trivia events were like "Mine 1 crystal" so it was only about getting the answer right. Why change that and make it a hassle as well?
Slow clap for Scopley. Trivia question 5 refers to a specific raw material that the Ferengi are fond of - what happens if people don't have a D'vor or below 23? How the heck are they meant to mine 20k of lat shards?
Apparently it's been changed to 100 for the requirement but not in the description
Yes they have
Description changes soon
Please, for the love of all that is unholy, give us the new building mats with the daily Building pulls, like the Treasury has. Also, give us Relays as a daily. We have been asking for quality of life changes and getting more issues, more pay events. Please listen to your players, Scopely. Not being able to run armadas for events that run back to back or within days of each other sucks as well. I noticed the new Mission Key event gives them, so why can't you do other events that give directives?
How many events this is nuts
Scopely, you do know there are no hostiles of 5618, sure there are hostiles that they may be a part of but the hostiles you want us to hit are a collection of species not just 5618... And we know there are ships of them that don't have a single 5618 as part of their crew... So I might be hitting ships that are crewed without a single 5618... I know you mess things up all the time... But please try... Lol
The "clear the coast" battlepass event doesn't list the new eclipse systems as places where you can earn points. I've tested it, and they definitely allow you to score points. A small thing, but one that could probably be fixed very easily.
The Formation Armada dmg was really hard to finish for many lower level players. The fact that lvl 35 madas are 19 mil and lvl 40 madas are 124 mil makes this issue more apparent. [ truthfully, people need to learn to star better - but it is a mobile game - human condition ] It's feels too late to change any balance here, since Artifacts are already assigned to armada levels. Feels like Scopley is missing some middle ground again. Just maybe do completions instead of damage for the next event. This can create bad feelings and inter-allinace conflict and thats not good for the game. Once again - game balance......
When you spend over one hour to try and get the key from the webstore … don’t even get me started in buying stuff … scoplay you are doing a “fantastic” job with the web store . Absolutely miserable.
Some players have had success using their browser in private mode.
I’m sure this has been asked, and maybe answered, but in any event, can someone please explain why the Apex SLB is an “opt-in?” I understand for ticket events and for the daily faction events, but this one doesn’t seem logical. Thanks in advance.
It's opt-in because the intention is that players will choose to not join the event in order to give others a chance to win.
The relevant scenario is as follows:
Player A is a high-performing player, and has finished all skins/researches and no longer needs rewards.
Player B is in the same bracket, and trying to take the top positions in the SLB.
If A continues their usual path, then under auto-join they will actively be working against his teammate B every time he joins an armada. Because this is his teammate, he wants to help, but the only way to do that is to not play.
Under opt-in, he can just not join the event, and can assist in all armadas with his powerful development and lift his teammates to the win.
So make everyone's life harder for the 0.01% case, gotcha 🤦
so why not give an "UNJOIN" function instead?
In a world of fantasy it may work like that, but in the real world, it does not work like that. People with the skins/researches join in order to actively prevent people in other alliances from winning and being able to obtain the skin and do further researches. If you want it to work as you are suggesting, it needs to be like it is/was for the Opus Refit in the Old Apex, if you have it, the SLB does not appear as an event for you.
In this case, the reward isn't a skin, it's currency that is insufficient for a full skin unlock as well as some research mats. We need to win several times in order unlock the rewards and the currency can be used to buy lots of different skins, not just one.
If you want to design a replacement, then it needs to fit within the constraints of what we have now, and to be superior, it needs to have some part that's better. An unjoin button is new, unproven tech. And a lockout for skin owners assumes that the new Stella refit will be the only reward, ever.
What's wrong with choosing the path of personal responsibility and asking players to join when they want to, even if it means they can compete against their enemies?
Someone gets off work sits down opens up their STFC game and sees someone has started an Elipse armada so they join. A little while later they scroll through the events and “oh no I forgot is was Thursday and I didn’t join the event”. It seems to me this scenario is more likely. However I hadn’t considered the scenario you laid out, I appreciate you spelling that out for all of us. At least I now know why that event is like that.
I don't like that people have to join because the people it penalizes are the ones who are already not placing high (taking their time to unlock things from a few months to several months, potentially) - they may not be on at event reset to hit the join then, and missing an armada or two may be significant to how they place overall - my leaderboard this week had only 39/50 prizes given out, so doing anything that scored points would have gotten the next 11 people a prize. The players who benefit from the join button (at the time, where I suspect 99% of players who run at least one armada intended to be on the leaderboard) are the ones for whom a few players not participating meaningfully affects rewards, aka players in the top 10.
Of those two groups, if necessary, I would prefer that the system is designed so that more people get the 4.5k vs 0, at the cost of some people getting 10k+ losing out on more. The former is often a case of kicking players while they're down (ones feeling time pressure on that day or every day, players making a mistake, or just unaware of a knowledge check.)
I find it challenging to meet the goals of "minimize players stockpiling coins for any hypothetical new additions, especially by skipping purchases", "ensure that lower-level players are able to save for the unlocks they may not see yet", "don't require tech there's no reason to think they have (a leave event button)", and "maximize player satisfaction", but here's my best attempt:
- The event auto-joins if you meet the requirements for it
- At ops 34+, the event is available unless you have enough coins to buy every visible refit (or have no visible refits).
- From ops 25-33, the event is available until your coin total is at least (the cost of the stella refits you don't have unlocked + the cost of one g3 epic refit)
I assume any new additions to the game will be mostly targeted at ops 35+ players anyway, and this prevents the store from locking out early for newer players.
If they wanted to really fix the problem of "don't let people stockpile for new additions", then that's accomplishable in my pitch by also changing the g3 epic refit visibility from what I believe is "has the ship" to "ops 34+ and Respected in the relevant reputation" (aka could buy and build the ship) - anyone determined enough to stockpile that they won't triple lock is such an edge case they're not worth worrying about, and if they care about players who got the ship from chests without getting the reputation they could probably add that as another visibility option.
This avoids the feels-bad of "I go the opus grande skin early as a new player before I could get my stella to t9 and now I can't work towards the one that helps me research faster" or "I can't work on the g3 skins because I'm not high enough level to buy them", and doesn't make higher-level players feel like they're being punished for unlocking refits for ships by being unable to save up now (especially if they did so before this system)".
High-engagement players who have everything they want are now opted out (or will be shortly when they get the ones they don't care about - it shouldn't be that many skins, and if their placing affects their teammtes than they're getting minimum 10k coins a week), and if they really need to screw over some other alliance's members they can go back to armada spiking or whatever.
Bugs aside. It's really slow to do cat and mouse event atm as +50 player. I need interceptor kills but they don't like to spawn after few have been killed. Grinding hours lower level hostile I won't start to do to finish the event.
I like the new Thursday apex events, good re-design of old content 👍 downsides: still hasn’t resolved lag, I now hate playing the game on Thursdays. Still need faster respawn rates for eclipse armadas. On an active server they are all gone in each system & still hanging around & waiting. By the way I have no issue with the join event button, click the apex window and the event is clearly marked with join…easy, not missed one. If scopley could work on the downsides ive mentioned it would be a job well done by them
New to game (couple of months) and want to know what the heck is a Mission Key??? I am told in store, I was getting them weekly for Outlaw Recruit Chits, now no one can tell me where to earn or get them... Hell of a game no rules or intructions... Frustration factor very high at this point... FYI even opened a Scoply account that ai cannot get into now...
My rule of thumb for mixed hostile systems is always go for battleships. Most players will go for explorers cos they’re always the squishiest, the next biggest group will go for interceptors cos they have lower hull than battleships. While those groups are killing those, battleship hostiles will spawn more quickly, and you’ll have less competition for them.
The mission key is found in the online store, not in game
Claimable gift in the online store. Redeem it in game for officer shards.
Looking at the killing game….absolutely a face palm event. Folks at the lower end of the tiers are going to get ANNIHILATED by folks just a couple levels higher due to access to ships. Not sure who idea it was, but they don’t play the game, or are sadists. As it is Mother’s Day, way to go scopy. Yet another example of state sanctioned bullying. You don’t know what is going to happen? Let me tell you. The bracket I am in, (47-60) will have all 56+ players not touching each other AT ALL, and they will swoop in and smoke the 47-52 players who stand NO CHANCE (and ergo getting little to no points of damage for their troubles) against the magnitude of power difference thrown at them. This is a really awful idea, and who ever thought of it should be shamed mercilessly.
NOT in the Store, as far as I can find, looked there and no such animal. Thanks for the reply... Will not do that event as they do not want to support it...
It’s on the website. NOT in game
Web store, a free epic shard everyday
<@&509691205798592532> recruit the doctor avatar slb has dixon hill instead of The Doctor, as pictured on the event screen
News is announcing events that started yesterday...?
I know the Dr is a hologram, but...
Wrong avatar, pls fix @wanton copper
Didn’t get the scanning HF in the gift section.
It's the Borg Cube HF
use the borg cube one
Not everyone has that HF
Ok so.... let's NOT do the look endlessly for systems in "star chart" thing again..... ugh.
Anyone know where the 2nd one is?
Everyone has it
They aren't all rotated correctly. Hold your screen 90 degrees to the right.
The clue sucks , can’t even find a single alpha quadrant star chart that looks like that in half a billion stars
It is there here is your hint... Count the systems with connections and you will find it in the clear blue sky
That’s first thing I tried, can’t find anything that looks like that anywhere
1-Lainey 2-Ferenginar 3-Nasturta when you get there, use the cube symbol
Searching the Galaxy View for the Delta Data on a phone screen is killing my eyes. Stop trying to make me play on a PC Scopely! This is supposed to be a mobile game 🤦♂️
that is not the worst one... 1 and 3rd are somewhat doable but the 2nd one isn't oriented the same way as your map on your device (without spoiling much)
and the third isnt even in the Alpha Q its in Beta
Hey @queen kindle they need to fix some verbiage since this is supposed to be the A & B line
Interesting, also ST is much smaller than I thought. Weird to think that DS9 is all in the same galaxy.
How are we supposed to do the Mission Key event when the web store just freezes every time you try to claim a key?
Some players have success using private mode on their browser. Otherwise, just keep trying to get through.
Spent materials yet got no score
I’ve managed to get it to load eventually other days but not today.
If it's not lag, then check to see that you've used the correct grade and rarity of mats.
was it really needed to ask for a base of 90 hostiles for a simple event?
anyone got answers for delta data event? i end up found first one. just got bord looking for needle in haystack.
The "field testing" line of events seem to be designed around using the buffs for newly released ships. That we get the cerri to use here too seems like we got a break, and another one for those who have neither.
Wait until your dailies reset and you'll easily get close to that many
Good you add a different event, but what does player who not owe the Borg-Cube HF yet? Some of my Ally don't owe it and can't finish the Event. Where to get the Cube HF?
Contact CS and hope they give it to you for the future run
It was given away at the start of the arc, and even with the slow reputation CS has the players should still have time to complete it
Keep it civil and respectful
Space, is big, mind boogling big, i mean you really dont know how big it is! You may think its a long way down the road to the chemist? but, that's just peanuts to Space!
Why are you running an event that requires you to log into the store when the STORE DOESNT WORK!!?!?!
Have gone to all three systems used borg cube to wave scan hail. No points awarded, or acknowledge
Ops level?
only got half the points needed, can someone pls tell me how to complete the SMS
Wait 1 week for part2 to release.
why 1 week?
That’s what the calendar says
Lainey. Ferenginar,nasturtium. Lvl 14 Correct?
No
Check #1042855078761091072 . There is answers for below ops 25 and above 25
I'd check your in-game settings to see if HFs are disabled.
Excellent job with Event Synergy today. 3 for 1 is always fun!
Does anyone from Scopely actually read this page? The web store has been broken for the duration of Mission Key Hunter events and there’s no news about anything being done to address this issue.
Information in this channel reaches them regardless if they read it or not. It's not that they don't know about it, it's just that they haven't fixed it yet.
Thank you I found correct areas .
Reminds me of the Vogons and their demolition notice of Earth. 😛
The Mission Key event is tough to impossible using a mobile device since the store won’t load at all. Out of the last 75 attempts over the last two days, the store loaded properly once. Even switching from Safari to Chrome, using Privacy/Incognito mode, & clearing the cache before logging in hasn’t worked. I guess this event is only designed for people that have PCs to play on.
you can log in on any pc/mac you wish
Works just fine on Android too
Recruit the Doctor event isn't scoring for G3 uncommon spend
you want to encourage ppl to engage more with the webshop. How can it be that:
- It logs me out every day?
- It crashes on my iPhone - or Android device
- It is terribly slow and buggy. Sometimes I need to redeem it 3x to have it register
My favorite, there's nothing in there worthwhile.
Include a deal of the day or some reason other than a daily officer pull.
Like thx for visiting, here's a pull on the officer of the day!
What did you upgrade?
G3 Gas on a ship
Yeah what
Either 1 of 2 scenarios either there is lag from what was announced in #⭐-official-announcements or you did an upgrade that had common gas and mistook it for uc gas… that happens often
The threshold on these spend events is getting rediculous, months of pushing to hit the 4m target has bled my stocks dry, and you choose to increase it?!?!? 🤷♂️ Afraid ive not even attempted this time. Bring back the 2m max target! 🤞
Ops 47, Server 8. No PVP event. My ops 45 alliance mate has one. Yes I have restarted and cleared localization
Delta Quadrant- The Killing Game not showing up for me on 184. Ops 47 restarted 3 times just for the giggles
OPS 47, Server 181, no PVP event!
@wanton copper @icy cairn Can ops 47+ get some info on our missing pvp event
No pvp Event 155, different ops.
Ops 52, no PvP event, server 34.
fix events pls thx
Franklin-A counts but talios doesn’t? Who is gonna pvp with a Franklin?? Come on, update your game to reflect what gets added!
pvp events with different designated systems per level bracket should get a marker in galaxy view so people not in the bracket know they're a target there.
Nice logic- eclipse armadas don’t count for points… I know let’s use a photo of an eclipse armada for the event
Thanks scopely, a pvp system for g4 and g5 ships. Very well thought out! When are your developers going to start playing the game themselves. Pathetic performance - as always
I'm in Delta Quadrant - The killing game with my Salinder at Zahl and there is nothing here that is giving me any points. Not wasting my time with this
Kill a player ship @muted mauve it’s a pvp event
Lat and par are good.. are you guys opening?
it's too late to find someone: there is monday mining event. Try to solve it as every event that needs this solution
Disappearing act back and scaled to new horrible heights. Just “wonderful”. So many complaints in the past and they fell on deaf ears.
did anyone else see attacks not scoring on Disappreaing Act? Just yetryons scoring but not the attack bonus
scopely level 47's having to "play" a pvp event against all the levels to 60 and only being able to use a g4 rare and up... you just don't care
No parts, no dil, and the officers blow. Hard pass this time.
I'm not paying.. I have the rods . Just for reference what is your op?
49 with a maxed treasury. And I usually open it, either with money or rods. But not this time. Last month was my free one. (And I can confirm, no attack bonus for disappearing act, just tets spent working…glad I have the Bajoran traits unlocked 🙄)
Never. No Parts, not much Parsteel, less Trit, no dil (parsteel easy to Raid). There are better Packs in the store for me. If i have the Rods also no.
I am disappointed with the pvp event. I was excited when I saw you guys were going to take people's available ships into account. Yet, the biggest ships I have access to are ktinga/Kelvin and in same system with people with newton's and pilums. 30 mil against my 13 mil.
Just another badly planned pvp event that is severely lopsided. I am also aware that the below 40s have it even worse.
Thx for Killing Event. Pretty sure I can beat this. 👍
come on you could debuff it.... use 200% dmg exo... cerritos support... titan-a support and probably get 2 shots off ? Oh and CLOAK!!! BOOM
Pvp is fun if you stand a chance. This 47-60 bracked is stupid. For 47 is sending and expensive lamb tonthe slaughter
Y'all don't have to BEAT the ships, just do damage to them. I literally finished mine in two, painful, deaths.
try do get damage done when you get volleyed before firing a shot
Haha, the D‘Deridex would just oneshot my pilum.
what have I done wrong?
it have to be SAME ship vs SAME ship
O_o
it doesnt, the pilum is not a ship you can use
It doesn't have to be same ship. I don't know about other servers, but on ours, we send out ships for people to hit that are more even so everyone gets their points.
No it doesn’t
oh really? i checked in with some many stupid configurations and only franklin vs franklin worked out. kehra vs vahklas? no, vahklas vs jelly nope, only franklin vs franklin worked out. If it worked for you, COOL but it doesnt worked out for me.
Have you restarted your game?
There’s players 15 ops lvls above me in the PvP system. What is going on
but event description says you can use pilum. @white bramble I send an augur right after (without restarting game) and that time it worked instantly. the win with the pilum did soomehow not score
You don't need to, Dderidex is not a scoring ship. It's probably just a wayward whale or being used as a scout.
Was it possibly lagged in scoring? That is a constant issue as well.
looks likes ours are different, I had to do mine in a different system
Event already done. Killed a poor innocent Newton. It was just to illustrator how bad the bracket for this event is.
Silly I can't complete this event. Lv 42 ships (g4 uncommon) aren't listed for me. . Im too low for lvl 50 ships (g4 rares), and I don't have a lvl 46 ship yet (g4 rare). This event is poorly designed.
@vocal coral exactly
I dunno. I kind of prefer this event to the ones where you have to win to score. At least this one gives most a chance to finish just by damage done. If people work together and send in ships that are listed, but low enough to damage, you can complete the event easily.
Send a harrison crew and make sure you hit attack last. Add HG Worf for crits and a piercing officer and you can do something decent, at least.
Or hit the other Pilums.
wow your event creators have lost touch with the game.... this cloak event... apparently they just think everyone is either gonna run out and buy a cloak or just have under 500 teytrons laying around... max is 240ish? +/- ops levels changing that?
In the same boat @vagrant topaz No rare 4* and above, nevermind that my T7 kelvin is taking out bigger Pilums with ease
Exactly. Mine is T9. I refuse to spend $1200 to get a newton for the event
The fact that the cloaking milestones dont tally to spend and win .. LOL .. this is why noone bothers with the cloak event ... 30 points to cloak, 10 for a win ... 50 first milestone ... nah, c u next year when freecloakbooters are introduced
Only way I was able to finish that one is I bought the cloak for D3 for 6k credits. Not sure it was worth even doing that. They could have put tetryons in the rewards.
I just don’t get the logic behind some of these Events. We already have a mining SLB every Lat Monday, yet Scopely decides we need 3 more? We now have Mudd SLBs every Apex Thursday, yet Scopely decides to stack another one on this week, and it’s a 2 day SLB? Meanwhile there’s no Heavy Hitter, no Recruit the New Officers SLB, no ATA SLB, just a couple of Armada SLBs.
And yeah I do kinda like the novelty of the Delta missions, even though it’s killing my eyes staring at Galaxy view. And trivia is usually interesting. But outside of those, I gotta say this is one of the most boring months I can remember, as far as Events go 🤷♂️🥱
Roa should go, new mining events should be permanent. The rewards are just better. Roa has not been worth the effort in a very long time.
No but at least a ship in your category - of you own a pillum, an Augur wouldn’t like cut it
@icy cairn @queen kindle
TREASURY VALUE SUCKS. Months ago was a good value. Past few months not good at all. I used to purchase every month. Stopped. Now I just wait for free one. Not worth the $
Hell, this one isn’t even worth the free rods 🙄
Yes. Not worth even using free rods
It’s not tailored to individual needs. Lots of 50+ players are probably very happy to get a par-heavy vault this month. If it’s not what you need then you can wait for one that is.
Lol. I’m at ops 54. 2Trillion Trit is a joke. Upgrade 2 buildings. IF you have the ungodly amount of common and unc needed to go along with it.
Materials@need to be increased. Add ship@parts. Make it enticing
FYI. The UNC 5* is NOT even enough to upgrade one building or ship component
Pvp system Rovah, players level 47-60. Really Scopely?
Ridiculous pvp brackets
mantis? delays shots 🙂
Good morning. About "The killing game" event.
There are not players in my PvP system (I have completed it yesterday because I know this kind of PvP events must be played ASAP).
Problem: one event system
Proposed solution #1 : all systems
Proposed solution #2 : add PvE component (bad solution)
Best regards to all and good luck developers: may the force be with you.
Is there any progress to fix the blocked formation armada's?
All 3 lvl30 formation armada's on Server 109 are broken atm
I don't have these ships and that screws me over
What ops are you?
ops 47+ without 46r ship?
Ops 48+* by looks of it
The Pvp brackets do suck like all the time. They need to decrease the gaps so you can't hit so far down.
That being said, people need to stop speed leveling ops and skipping all these ships. I can not tell you how many people can't complete events or do dailys cause they rushed to ops 35 without so much as a single faction ship. Even worse if your trying to swing upper 40s without even a ops 42 ship.
Slow down guys, you gotta be strategic about how you ops up....
But PLEASE fix the pvp hit brackets! I'm a ops 44 and I got no buisness hitting anyone in the low 30s. Your killing off your player base cause they can't get anything done or grow. It causes unhealthy servers.
If accounts are skipping ops lvls, it's because it's an alt account. There is a ridiculous amount of alternate accounts which needs a limitation.
Maybe some, but no. People speed level in a attempt to catch up to other people in the server or to push to different ops levels to be able to participate in arcs, like pushing to 35 to do bajoran/last borg ark.
They bulldoze forward trying to keep up and they shoot themselves in the foot.
we need to fix this broken armadas, only one lvl 35 is working atm
So if I already got the ex-borg efficiency prime am I just SOL for the event?
was this ex-borg SLB announced? i'm looking at the in-game news right now and its not listed on the calendar
same boat here, big RIP
how use a ship lvl 42 on lvl 39 ? 
Why do you ask?
Stop with the stupid events!!! I just spent 20k exborg credits on research last week, stop trying to put our progression to a halt waiting on events!! Do not give events for currencies like this!
for ci vis pacem parabellum
it's a bad traduction, or i do use a sip of spaceship lvl 42 ?
but on lvl 39... my spaceship is 39
Everyone 39+ gets that event. If you don't have a 42+ ship yet, then don't worry about the bonus scoring. It'll be relevant for you later.
worst is that they didnt even put this into the calendar so they screwed over a bunch of people
The researches for efficiency that I did in Borg faction saved me far more materials than what winning the SLB for Borg research is worth in my case. So while it is annoying that I will not be able to participate in it, I still would have spent my ex-borg credits before anyway.
So unless I pay a couple hundred euros (or I somehow manage to complete 100 researches ... which will probably cost as much) there's no way to complete this event ? That SUCKS !
I am OPS 52 and really fed up with the clustering of the events.
Many events are 50+ till 60, for the majority of events, that's no problem.
(still, people who are 60 on my server, buy everything in the game and will always dominate SLBs)
Then I have events, where I am in a Cluster up to 54?!
Types:
-
defeat armadas, scoring by armada level
-
do damage to armadas
-
kill NPCs, scoring by NPC level/damage done
OPS 53 player have the the higher ship, how am I supposed to compete here? -
all mining events up to OPS 60
They have multiple Novas or even better miners, how am I supposed to compete here?
Going OPS 53 costs a lot (either in-game resources or even by cash).
It takes me weeks and until then, I can't compete in any current SLB.
That really grinds my gears
Please make SLBs capped by the possibility of having a ship that can compete (in my case OPS 51-52 e.g.)
I never tested it, does the bonus scoring actually matter? 51 points per hull damage to a heavy instead of 50?
am I supposed to not get the points for this because I had it prior to the event being launched? because if this is the case, then I dont need to buy the other 2, as I cant complete the event anyways 😉 well turns out I can, but still sucks this way
Probably doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things. It's not a test I'd consider valuable either. We're well into an era where even G3e can kill heavies.
@wanton copper shouldnt you at least consider to reward the ones that got the primes before you threw out this prime research event?
The scoring for damage in the armadas is wrong! Scopely, it is unbelievably pathetic that you charge money to buy a pack to score higher in the damage event and then can't even get it to count properly. If I beat an 800m solo armada and don't get 800m points, it shows that you can only fail.
It's heroic aka only way to complete is to pay. Walk away and pretend it's not there. Nothing will happen
Really shows that you care more about the spenders than the free to play players when you do events like that. I’ve paid for a couple of those primes already - should we not get credit if we’ve already bought the ones you’re rewarding for now? Really makes me not want to spend when I can if you’re literally gonna shaft us for doing so
take a guess who paid for the Borg Prime on Monday and blew his stockpile on borg research right after, in order to chase the power based SLB in synergy with another research SLB on Monday. Yup.
And now we have an event that requires Borg research come out of the blue. Plus who didn’t see the 7day event in the wall of text announcement. Yup. I did check the calendar welcome screen, it wasn’t there.
What am I playing, a mobile game or bloody VMS-based MUD? I am getting tired of all this stupid small print, I think I am bored, I will read the small print of my healthcare insurance and pay them a couple hundred euros for shoots and giggles.
My engagement today: middle finger.
Temba his wallet closed.
How hard is it to have consistency in naming?
Killing a 53 epic armada that has almost 400 million combined shield and hull hit points but I'm getting 36 million points, how is this possible when it's 2 points per one damage?
I have same question. It only count 26M points for me and I don't have projectile. On the other hand super easy eclipse armada gives huge points. That is just ridicules!
Only the smallest ship in a solo armada is counting for damage dealt
I'm not seeing it anywhere, but I might be overlooking it-
Is there any idea on the next talios build event?
When will scopely take a stand on the incorrect scoring at the Armadas? It is obviously wrong! And what is almost bordering on rip-off is the fact that it double penalises the players who also spent money on the bullet to get 1/3 more points. That is cheating!
@wanton copper You are telling us to use biger ship and not Talios, so you loose on Talios rewards!!! Thus favoring players with two smaller ships than those who invested in getting two big ships!!! Great job.
Hi people
stop making the VERY FEW research SLBs you EVER do P2W. Its so annoying to save up tons of special rss for research events just to watch somebody spend a couple grand to make my months and months of saving absolutely useless.
They promised at the beginning that everyone will be able to unlock everything in time. Yet they keep adding more and more primes with special currency that cannot be unlocked unless you pay. So again they lied directly to our faces.
The hell equal scoring! Those one man alliance doing 40 exchange bank with a crappie Stella win big time!
if it doesnt matter then explain the lead someone in my alliance has
interesting that you get points for the armada dmg SLB while fighting Doomsday Worms 😉
Yup you have the new projectile, its giving points for non armada dmg
@wanton copper your statement stating this effects everyone the same is factually false. By not fixing the scoring for all ships, you disproportionately punish those who focused on having a heavy hitter while rewarding those who have even ships across the board. It’s one thing if this was an intended feature. It’s totally another when you know the scoring is broken and lie to the community saying it affects everyone the same. That’s a factual lie.
Are we surprised?
mhm
@ SCOPELY Your statement "This is affecting all Commanders, and should not have an impact on equal scoring for the SLB." couldn't be more wrong. As others might have already pointed out, players would have spent $$$ levelling up three ships in power to try and take down larger solo armadas to get better benefits and in this case "hull damage". It is in no way "equal" to others who might not have similar ships and cannot do higher level armadas. You need to expand your thinking. Effectively players with three good ships to take down higher level armadas are not scoring as much as they should compared to others in this SLB.
Nice try silencing and deleting posts from people who reported the fact that with the new beam equipped, PvE (hostiles), PvP AND Armadas give points towards the SLB.
Way to go, instead of fixing the problem/(Trying to reword as you usually manage these bugs) or any other technical avenue, you decide to censor and ban them from discord.
I'm impressed with your lack of integrity. Seriously, fantastic. China would be proud of you.
anything that affects spenders will obviously get deleted asap
I am a big spender relatively speaking I'm level 59 and I find this behavior from the moderators/scopely disgusting. We go out of our way to report the bugs so they can take action and that's what we get for our troubles....
@wanton copper Any ETA on the scoring for the Alpha Omega SLB, will it be fixed until event ends? Will it be recursive and take into account the armadas done since event started?
Interesting; do you have any examples of where such action has been taken?
Bearing in mind right now your comment at the end of your post is exactly the sort of thing that gets a post deleted 🙈
Don’t even have to go back more than a few posts to prove you wrong on this one:
Not sure they can actually fix it at this point considering any hostile or player killed with the new beam also gives points for the SLB... Unless they keep track of the damage dealt by it and they're up for putting a big load on the backend to scrub the data...
Better forget about the even and just live with the bug...
yeah, they would need to parse battle logs but I don't think the load would be critical...after all, it's 24h back data with two factors - armada event or beam..
We can but hope...
Counter - i didnt incite anything. I didnt offer for anyone else to open up.
Inciting people to do something vs stating that theres an issue are 2 different things.
Or how about I leave it at this: Scopely's event does not act within a free-to-play game as advertised. Score does not accrue as advertised.
Anything you say beyond this to defend it and "adjust my play" is counter to the stated event which they are required to act by.
Stop trying to feed us "nah its 'aight" and face it, escalate it, and listen to the community.
This a ridiculously low amount of dilithium for OPs 54.
It’s a station pack, which makes it par heavy with some tri
so don't buy it. Anyway, how much dilithium have you?, cash and tokens.
How is it a station pack with all mats balanced, no extra ore. It’s just parsteel heavy pack.
A balanced station pack then?
They rarely balance G4 anymore
Wait til you see how “balanced” G5 is…
THIS is the issue. @wanton copper and @icy cairn I had the amount of solo borg directives to win this easily - had scoring worked properly. The disparity in strength between my top two ships the third next best one put me at a serious disadvantage compared to folks that have three ships nearer each other in strength. This bug did not impact all people equally in the end, the math is more complex than your announcement indicates. Add in the bug where the new projectile scores in PVE and PVP for this SLB and you have a broken event. The rewards arent groundbreaking, but I was looking forward to this one and saved directives for it.
Would your team at least consider a gift chest to people that scored in the event as some sort of gesture of goodwill for the mistake? Saying it impacts everyone so we will let it go doesnt sit well, especially considering that both bugs combined do not impact everyone equally. No big deal, I still get my solo mada rewards as needed - but scopely should be doing a gift chest for this event, it is broken pretty badly in the end.
Wasnt the mission key hunter supposed to end? Why does it run 1 more day now
I can’t engage in content when you don’t provide adequate directive sourcing. I won’t even mention the stupid power jump between the level 35 and 40 armadas
You have an alliance with more than 12 people in it?
Sure, I’ll just join everyone else’s armada with my Pilum while they run ent’s and augers and they get no points. We need more directives so we can both complete our own sms and help our lower players
Where did all yours go? 👀
I’ve got most of 7 runs 🙈
Didn't run a single one since the last event. I used mine helping others in my alliance during the first event. this is what has been earned since the last one ended
Please put the formation timer back to 15 minutes. That time was already on the short side given the coordination required to do these formation. People have too little time to respond and to arrive in time, especially for armada 2 and 3 which will have even shorter timers. Worst decision ever, another dead mechanic after the month is over
sadplay can you come up with better events they are so boring your game is a dying entity no wonder people are leaving lets have a spend event this weekend thats 6 in a row lets put an eclispe event up ohhhh we have so many i have more eclipse keys than i can refine in a lifetime
Please increase the number of people that can join. Many people aren’t bothering because they can’t get involved
I’ve gained 1 formation armada since the last event. Not sure how you got 7 @vagrant topaz
I thought the Formation Event was 48 hours like mentioned here in #💫-event-information it is 24 hours ingame:
10-11 is 24hours…
Nope, else they would announce it like this:
The current event is really for the dustbin. After a month with the event shop, you now have Pay2Win. No directives for the new armadas and the other events are hardly worth mentioning in terms of rewards. Is it just me?
So how long is an event that happens only on the 10th?
Every date an event is listed for is 24 hours worth of time...it doesn't matter if it crosses physical calendar date...so the 10-11 is meant to be 2 full days aka 48 hours.
And I think the first one did run for 48h
I know that only one ship of the 3 in solo armadas is a counting for the event, but is there a way to influence which ship it is? It looks like I'm only getting about a quarter of the total points, which makes me think that the ship I'm getting the points for is the smallest ship out of my three.
The event penalizes a big DPR gap between ships, like in cases like mine, with 2 G4 and a G5 ship.
The smallest ship scores the pts.
You have to take your biggest ship and run the biggest one it can kill on its own to get the best results. Sucks for people who ran through their directives before knowing this. I think the event needs to be trashed and all directives returned. It has ended up really unfairly.
@wanton copper & @icy cairn
For the Formadas Event, issues and recommendations:
Issue 1: Not enough Formada targets in each system. Alliances are fighting and/or competing over who gets to utilize them and this is seriously affecting lower level players who want to participate, with support from their stronger players.
Solution: Add 2 more formations in each system, positioning the three North, SouthWest and SouthEast.
Issue 2: Seats for each formada target is limited to 4 each, severely limiting # of participants each time.
Solution: Match the # of seats available to that of regular armada targets, boosted by the Armada Control Center. As participants require strength high enough to defeat even the lvl 26 Formadas in Uxal, they should be able to host 4 seaters by then anyways.
Also add better diversity between 35 and 40 on Formation Armadas. The power disparity is too wide to reasonably done. I feel AWFUL for all our lower 40s higher 30s ops players.
This has added so much frustration OR DON’T do damage dealt on this event.
@wanton copper @icy cairn the Artifact System is broken. The amount of Artifacts you get is just way to low to be anywhere motivating or impactful for the game. It's a shame to kill a good idea like that. The count down in the artifact gallery is way to long, it should be 24 hours (example: I have 70k which I can not use and it's only growing), 15 directives a day for an armada is just laughable, it means one armada a week, but then again, as the count down is from the stone age, it really doesn't matter. All together doing the armadas doesn't matter as the system of artifacts is broken, so in the end you released something that's a great idea and design it to be utterly useless. Needs some work and adjustment to have people focus on it and to be something people thrive for to complete. It will die after the Arc if you don't fix it. As a side note as someone that buys many pacts (ops 59), the pack in the shop is to unattractive to buy even for whales 🤣 so please go and fix it and make it something nice. At the moment unfortunately it is a dead born idea which could have been great. And no, your last "fixes" are a drop on a hot stone.
This armada event is just a straight up cluster of insanity. So the solos don't work and only score for the smallest ship screwing everyone who was holding onto directives for events LIKE THIS and then anyone with the new projectile can just score grinding hostiles cause that's cool and what the actual event is right? Doesn't skew anything at all right . Of all the scopely screw ups this might irritate me the most.
The sourcing of the formation armadas is so slow, 15 a day, WTF. On top of that to even buy them it is expensive, how do you justify that?
Solo Armada is a total screw up, it doesn't count damage but only the damage of the lowest ship as @pattyofurniture says. Unacceptable. It says Damage. Just did 15 lvl 60 armadas @wanton copper @bek this needs a fix and massive compensation as the description states very clearly and unmistakable Damage with no limitations on all armadas. There is no wriggling out with some kakkamenia story or word twist as it is unfortunately so common!
Yep the bugs robbed me of first place too. They did not impact people evenly. Those with three ships close in power were given an advantage due to the bug (or were forced to forego loot and run one ship to solos). And the projectile bug completely ruined it. I saved directives for an event like this and it was a bummer how scopely decided to say meh to their own bugs. @wanton copper
I assume it is not a bug, it's designed that way just not described correctly. Event description seem to be done by someone hasty and without consequences for that person to upset their customers. Not the first time 🤣
No they even announced the one ship scoring was a bug, but in their eyes it impacts everyone equally so they left it. Their reasoning couldnt be further from the truth, but I digress. Who knows on the projectile - either way its a crappy customer offering in the end.
Well, technically speaking it did leave everyone impacted equally - smallest ship scored for everyone, everything past that as with all SLBs is down to a player’s own decisions - and for the most part, it would affect people the same way anyway as someone with two T5 G5R ships will be doing more damage with those ships than someone with a T5 G5R and a T6 G5U; my main issue was with the description not giving people the knowledge that only the smallest ship scored after that issue was identified, letting people know and crew appropriately - although it was announced here.
In short, player choices decide every leaderboard; the complaints I hear here past “that’s not what it says” is “it doesn’t suit my choices”, which unfortunately there are always going to be instances where your choices disadvantage you just as much as they advantage you. See; Pilum owners on a server full of Newbtons.
I get it - scopelys response was disappointing though, lets be honest. Two bugs (or unannounced metric) in one event - they used to give out comp chests or change scoring or do something more. To say simply, theres a bug sorry, and leave it at that is subpar CS. Anyway, it is what it is, scopely continues to push loyal customers closer to the F2P line, and then F2P players closer to the ex-player line with additive bad experiences. They need to do better QC across the board and much better communications/response to mistakes. Another day in STFC.
This! 🙏🙏🙏🙏
We need a 37 and 39 system with armadas between 30m to 60m, may be?
Armada functionality UI needs to be changed. Please do something like a pop-up where people can press a button to join and register. There's just too many armadas now and it's a huge pain to keep track esp when multiple ones happen simultaneously
Same here, problem is not that it can happen, but how it is communicated and followed up/compensated. It may affect all players, but due to Scopelys communication which is not in-game people may don't see it or see it later than others. So the impact is not on all players equal....so it all gets back to bad quality coding, bad description and bad communication......call it Scopely 🤣
So there is a chance we getting one of those totally useless compensation gift chest again? Ohhh boy ohh boy, I can’t wait to get my hand on a few K parsteel 😜
Opinion: Armada events discourage armada participation because everyone hoards their directives for the events. More armada types just mean more directives to hoard for the next set of borg armada/formation armada/KLR armada/directive spend/eclipse armada whatever event.
More armadas…………..yaaaaaay…….😕
Imagination must be a highly sought after commodity at Scopely towers!
@icy cairn @wanton copper is something wrong with the eclipse event store, I haven't pulled these today, but now when I have more currency I cant spend it, are these not resetting at the start of the new event launch
why is there a cool down on apex trit and dilly? havent even clicked on then yet this event?
Can we please space out armada events? After the damage SLB, I'm out of directives. Not to mention 4 days of armada events is starting to drive me crazy. Not to mention the amount of UI glitches I'm getting in eclipse space. It feels like too much at once.
Even with 3 new Stella zones. It remains overcrowded.. makes it's still impossible do the events
@icy cairn @wanton copper
Greetings,
Issue 1: Contraband Chips can only be spent on Hijacked Ships. There is no incentive for higher ops / power level players to spend them.
Issue 2: Additionally, the 4* ship parts require Rogue Event Trophies, when the Apex Research Medals and Material/Resources options already need them.
Solution for both issues:
Switch the Currency Requirement for the 4* ship parts to be Contraband Chips instead of Rogue Research Medals.
This way high ops / power level players have incentive to spend the Contraband Chips and all players can focus their Rogue Event Trophies on Research or Building, instead of adding on ship parts to the choices as they grow in ops level.
But where would I spend my medals on if not g4 parts?
Rogue content is meant to end in the mid to high 40s, if you don't need the contraband chips then dont do the slb. That's the whole reason the slb has a join button. So if you don't need the chips, you don't enter the event for them. There are other things in the store that use the contraband chips, but you must have them already which is why they aren't visible to you.
Staring at empty systems for hours trying to find targets to launch, only to lose your directives bc another alliance started the armada a half second before you, is not fun, Scopely 😡
They're still working on the tech to check and see if an armada was started by another alliance. It's coming soon
Competence! Coming soon!
@vernal isle
They're not supposed to reset, the exchanges are up all the time. And cooldowns are short enough that it should be possible to exhaust your income every week. That said, we can always request to have them shorter.
@queen kindle I haven't spent any of the currency from this event and the time is still counting down, now did we not have 2 eclipse events this week? possibly and the timers have conflicted I don't know maybe a content creator or scoply themselves can answer that as its clear something has gone wrong with the timers, not resetting @wanton copper @icy cairn
Apex runs on thursdays. There've been no additional runs since last time it ran.
If you want to assist, then show me a SS of cooldown timers longer than 1week. Or show me mathematical calculations that your income exceeds the ways you can spend them.
I just pulled the two trit and its now got a 6 day 21h timer cooldown, these used to be 2 days 22 hours, why change them @wanton copper @icy cairn
Those are cooldown times from last week. They last for 6d 22h.
The resource ones have not changed. The medals one has changed since the revamp, and cooldowns on that one are shorter.
You may have started with incorrect premises, but your concerns are valid. The cooldown timers are long and unforgiving, just not in the way you believed.
Hej kann mir einer sagen woher ich Taktischer Kern der Armada bekomme um meine armada zu erforschen? Lg
I believe that this updated Battle Pass IGN info is still wrong. For example, it lists the Artifact Hunt SLB and ALB as May 17-18, yet the events say they go for 1 day 2 hours more, implying it's May 17-19. Formation Assault SMS is listed as May 17-18, but it ended at reset yesterday, so it was really just May 17. I don't know what errors it has on a forward looking/ongoing basis, but it's clearly wrong still, even after it got updated for the Gathering Resources SLB correction.
Please actually fix the announcement. It's useless misinformation as it stands
Lolz...you put your trust in the IGN.
So am I to just stare at this for 10 more days with no way of finishing it?
Please removed the requirement to join the Apex Exile SLB. I have ran multiple eclipse armadas without realizing I had not joined
Delta Part 2 hasn’t released
Okay thank you 😊
Very much agreed. It's silly. It doesn't have a cost like the ticket SMSes. It doesn't have a downside like the faction resource daily events. There's no reason for it to be opt-in.
It does have a downside.
2
Actually
- You knock your own alliance out of decent ranking
- You hold that currency that you can’t do anything with after a certain point
I guess I get the first part... but explain the second one.
Aus den rare und epic kisten
How come in limited time events (under daily events) I, a level 28, is up against level 46s? Seems a bit unfair that I never have a chance at get any rewards from them 🙄
Is there supposed to be a Recruit the Doctor event today?
Scopy expects you to pay to compete. Don’t fall for the trap, there will always be someone with a bigger wallet.
so whats the cost on these new primes?
The rewards aren’t that great anyways 🤷♂️ focus on arc SLB’s
yup its super stupid.
$995
Gonna be expensive max the new primes - 10 levels each
please tell me that is a joke.
no
okay that is literally insane.
One 100 pack will get you to T5 of the research, another 4x 100 packs will max one of the new primes. An additional 4x 100 packs + leftover from maxing the first will max the other.
I used the 1800 dolomide/pack estimate there. But I've seen some suggestions that further packs past the first only have 1200. You'll have to check if that's true and if so, it changes the cost to 600 to max each.
are trying to say that is a good price?
No, I'm stating the costs of the prime so that you can make an informed decision.
cool, I am amazed they get people to pay these prices for a game.
So now that you've listened to feedback, what exactly are you going to do for everyone else to address this problem?
Simply using issues in the game to make money really stinks for the rest of us.
You just described the metagame of stfc.
boycott the shop. don't buy anything Maybe that will finally get scopely off the high horse and make a reasonable game that is level-adjusted. Thanks for reading along
This doesn't hold for sub 41s. Can you pass along a request to make the $100 pack available at 28. The dolomite can be used later. Sub 41 the only option is to spend the same $100 to get at most to lvl 4.
Why are there additional milestones in the Officer SMS on the 2nd weekend? I don't mind the change itself - but can this at least be announced or not done mid-arc?
I feel screwed for going all in last weekend, would have gotten 60 more shards for it this week.
Absolutely not happy about this...
all 6 done 100 points each still 100 short
Read the IGN
What IGN ?
In game news
Sorry, but I still can't find where it is explained why we are 100 points short
Yeah ignore the above. I messed up. It’s been reported as a bug and it’s being looked into. The IGN only explains the choices
I was coming to post a very similar post, i did 21M points in last SLB, with this SMS it would be 42 officer shards. 🤬 However the last SMS was… ah let me check stfc.space…. oh wait a minute the new owners decided ro remove the functionality of events. 🤬🤬 Anyone can call me? What was it 8 shards total for 7Mish?
this is all we get for completing the event? 😡
No. It’s a placeholder item so you can get your last 100 points as it was bugged
Redeem these badges to get special prizes. And where do you do that?
If you don't claim the trait xp, I think it disappears anyway?
#👾-bug-reporting you'll get some info there
You will have an opportunity to turn these in during the last month of the Voyager Arc.
Mission 5 doesn't load, after mission 4 is completed...
Restart your game?
Did that, and cleared the local data in the settings. Still won't load it.
Dear Scopely. Why did you remove the amalgam from the cosmic cleanup store? That is unkind without notice. Bring it back, please.
The amal leaves the CC store when you've claimed the maximum amount of bps, ie. enough for one full amal unlock.
Oh..... That's a pain. I'm part way through my second.
I IHave read thru IGN twice n all it is about is info, new to all this…still trying to wrap my head around all reading b4 asking…Delta sms 6…. No matter how much I read n look at forums n read more…is there a bug that needs fixing cause I cant seem to do it…can I have advice please 🙏🏼🙏🏼
After you've finished 5 and collected enough currency, you can make a choice on how you want to finish 6. The exchange is inside your event store.
Ok🤔 still confused but thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼
thankyou very very much, that I did not read anywhere…. I really appreciate the down to earth explanation
Most likely you did the 13 pulls already. After that it won't show.
same, I am livid rn
I am about over it! @wanton copper
Your last sentence explains why they won't change their way. You've invested too much to walk away and they know it.
Good luck bud
Thanks.
Many complaints. All justified.
That may be true traditionally, however, there comes a time when you simply have to cut your losses and walk away.
Please share the response you are getting. I am really interested in seeing if / how they respond to it.
I mean I went all in on the first SLB and won it with more points then this SMS and come out worse. Makes no sense to change the events mid arc with no warning or compensation
SLB's are only changed mid-arc if it brings Scopely more money, any other eason to change it costs money and isnt dont
i highly doubt they are going to respond. I was redirected to feedback in that response I posted. While giving 'feedback' directly to scope it says that feedback is filed and not responded to ( or something to that effect - paraphrase)
Lol such a joke
They never get anything right. Most incompetent devs I’ve ever seen.
And of course…as I am collecting my six days back worth of bp rewards for the syndicate xp one, they pulled it 🙄. Fml scopy you are a soup sandwich. (And of course they aren’t going to compensate any of us, such a toxic company)
There are lots of people in my alliance saying the same thing
yeah, same in mine. people pulled their battlelog rewards etc.
Enjoy the ticket flood, CS, since no one can seem to get your event posting right and you rob a bunch of people of rewards
What the F. Spent 3900 credits on it already
Where the hell did it go? Did the daily pull and mantis refinery as soon as I saw the event and event disappeared without scoring?!
Relax a bit. Mistakes will happen, and give them time to fix it.
Same. Syndicate there then gone once I’d collected. Very very very very annoying.
Syndicate advancement cancelled?
WTF where did the syndicate go. I just freaking pulled all my stuff for it
same here
it showed for some for a bit and then disappeared
I invested already a lot in syndicate xp event. Time is money for this event. So please look for the problem asap
finished mining 200k g4 mats, got no credit for it. 😦
“Mistakes happen” is acceptable when they happen infrequently. This is literally Every Day.
The event is back, but my scoring is incorrect. 😦 Shall we create tickets or will it be fixed?
That’s great. Remove the message calling out Scopley for it’s incompetence that screws over most of its paying customers. What’s next, you going to ban me for calling out what’s happening?
"Just like, chill out yo. We took your money already so like, what's the big deal?" Mistakes on the daily, carefree attitude towards maybe approaching a fix.
I already submitted a ticket. The event was there, so I started spending syn rep
Today's Master Surveyor event isn't counting isogen. I mined 69K of 1* and didn't get anything for it, So I went back and did another 2-3K and it didn't register that either
Please change the killing game event so that any ship can be used. Not all of us have the ships that are in a player’s ops bracket.
The message was removed because name-calling is unnecessary. Do better.
Ops 29 event labelled as SMS but I think it should be SLB
Syn event back but points didn’t score correctly
Same for Ops 49 😁
Master survey event not scoring at all.
Scopely really needs to get better at communication. Someone from the company should throw an announcememt up immediately when this bs happens
Will scoring be adjusted later for those of us who have already spent our Syndicate XP for the event?
Same here. It was there, I let it sit for 10 minutes, decided it was safe to pull. Did my pulls, and see event is gone, when it came back - no points... Do we really all have to submit tickets for this? I have no idea how many points exactly I should have... lol
I wouldn’t hold your breath. They will come back with “it’s your own fault” and you will just have to accept it. Because THAT is the scopy way.
If you scored before it was pulled, you should have the same score. But those that “scored” while the event was gone got screwed.
and devs/mods go silent.....
I cashed in 3900 xp and got credit for 3600. My dailies are 400 and 500. 🤷🏻
Incompetent is now a banned word😂
i only did my Dailey and still have not gotten pnts yet
I’ve been pinged about 23 times in 20 minutes. I’m already fed up repeating myself. You can search my messages up for the answers to most questions
Chat moves fast, a Pinned message or announcement might help reduce pings
yea its tough doing our responsibilities isnt it....sorry to hear that you're fed up....cause we're definitely not here
Dev’s will remain silent and leave the mods hanging to deal with player dissatisfaction (as per the norm). The reds responses will be according to their demeanors. Some will be snarky, some will be exasperated, but none will be able to DO anything other snap back, or push higher (where player complaints die anyways) 🤷♂️. My sms’s are done. So yeah, I get my day back. I recommend everyone else do the same asap and just shut down for the day. Because we aren’t getting anything anyway. 😉.
Maybe answer the question and save your Support Desk colleagues the hassle of hundreds of tickets - will the scores be automatically corrected for those of us who pulled syndicate credits during the time the event vanished so ye could fix the rewards or do we need to log tickets to get our scores corrected?
?
Syndicate XP wiped and having to complete the Battlepass event for the second time. Someone messed up and there is nothing worse that feeling ignored
I mined over 15M 4* and not completed 1 milestone of BP event…what gives?
Search up my responses. You will find where I responded to what’s happening with this already.
It was changed since it was giving flash pass points
Don't bother, I went digging. His answer is that he doesn't have one:
NightBrawler: I don’t know. Will likely need a CS ticket but we will see what the solution is
I see syndicate xp event... I go to claim my syndicate xp... Only to come back and see the event is missing... I really hope I'm getting points for the 6k I claimed
Later on I said a comp is coming later
night wat will hapen with syndicate pogres i opened 8x3 multiphastick chest and event disapier now he show up and sindicat progres are 0
Hello, there was a problem with today's battle pass event. It wasn't present straight after reset but I'd recalled my miners due to the latinum event. Then the battle pass event appeared afterwards but saying 'retrieving'. It's now appearing correctly but has not scored for any of the materials that I'd mined. I think I should be able to complete it ok in the next 24hrs but thought it was worth mentioning on here 🖖
BP event was pulled shortly after the start due to an error in rewards, it should be back now. If you don't see it, clear localization or reboot your device.
here's a 10 minute speedup as compensation...
1 message up
has scopey opsed normaly 6k for end reward so tonight bp reward did not ping?
That’s the correct points. 12.5k
again isogen is missing from all events
love not getting credit for collecting 6050 syndicate xp
^total needs redoing that event 🤣
first need to make game stable, after that launch events..
That’s a huge challenge with some engineers. They want to always keep “improving or tweaking” without realizing that obtaining stability is more important. It provides a stronger foundation.
@hollow violet is my hero
I don't like this game anymore. I have real life for mess ups and drama. STFC is meant to be fun. It is not fun. It's not even funny about all the errors. I'm going to stick a long shield up and go tidy something pointlessly. It'll be more rewarding and satisfying.
Also had a problem not getting Syndicate points in Syndicate Advancement SMS
still no credit for the mining I did at the start of the day's events. 😦
They gonna comp us for the big screw that was the doctor solo mile stone in week 2?! Specifically for those of us that put up well over 20m+ points in week 1?
Contact CS
You mean leave feedback? I attempted to contact customer service and was redirected to feedback. unless there is another tab or category you would suggest going through.
Why is Scopely calling this Arc Voyager Part 1? Shouldn’t they call it Ferengi Part 2 instead? With these multi day mining events that 99% of players don’t want, especially when we already have Lat Mondays. And no other meaningful SLBs outside of the Doctor Recruit and the generic Armada SLBs. So what if some players complain about too many SLBs. No one is forcing them to participate. Many of us like grindable SLBs like Heavy Hitter or the Solos, not to mention Recruit and ATA SLBs that reward careful planning, but can be done with minimal time investment. Plz at least give us the option to do them!
Or how about a realistic bracket…. I love my 25M ship being whacked by a 800M ship….
I claimed 300 syndicate xp several hours ago till now the points have not been credited
Check pinned message on #🏆-event-chat
What’s up with the free doctor shard ? Opened the chest. Got 10 common recruit tokens. Is this a joke?
Also, I’ve done all of the events. Connected all the battle pass. And 1 shard short for Belana? Seriously. Is there going to be another opportunity this week to get 1 shard @icy cairn @queen kindle
The chest(s) today fixed scoring on bugged events this morning. They also included some tokens so that the chest was not visibly empty. No idea on more shards.
Compensation chest received. Pretty happy with the timely resolution (within the event duration)... Even though last night's situation could have been easily avoided (1-2 h before event start, "check-check, double-check, Scopely), it's still nice to see that effort was put in to solve this 👏👏👏
The way I see it, we are all customers. If I make a mistake in my company, the top priority is to please my customers, otherwise they will look for someone else. Mistakes happen, no problem, but I expect a company that has received some money from me to treat them accordingly. In order to prevent some people from not wanting to put up with this nonsense anymore, a real compensation would be desirable, that would be the full reward for all those who have collected points in a faulty event. That would not only be fair, but necessary to prevent legal action.
I find this event a clear illustration of how Scopley does not care nor understand requirements of their own game and sourcing. Everyone has tons of active nanoprobes but it takes tens of thousands of independent credits to upgrade these char and they only give a pittance of active nanoprobes at that instead of independent credits. @wanton copper @icy cairn
Looks over at mountain of independent credits
Apparently you haven’t sourced enough shards then grush top tier is 20k inde t4 for any char is 13k but you can source a pittance daily @patent river
He's been maxed...taps Talios refinery, 18k independent creds a month
Thought jelly pursuit was out today?
Should be out to those servers which can run it and those players without the jellyfish.
S91 has assention keys out. We've gotten all the other events. We've had jelly events released then pulled. And with stfc not knowing how to put dates on events right, I'd thought I'd ask
How do you expect people to do doomsday armadas with no way to get directives?
do another one
Don’t do them, someone at Scopely will remember they’re a thing and then we’ll all have to do them 🙈
breaking news!
scopely: introducing stupid primes which break the game, but not fixing the recent armada event. classic
upgrade your Talios... It will pay out way better credits then
Why would you want to?
Doomsday armadas are one of the most pointless things Scopley has released... lol
Let's release an armada...which will source things for tos via events, than we abandon after the arcs completed
Stupid pay to win slb… I have been in multiple expansion cubes, which score the most by far, yet the person who brought the projectile and can score on hostile is winning by a lot…
Wait what? I don't think you can score on hostiles unless scopely really messed up. My understanding is that the projectile only increases the points you get per damage done from 2 to 3.
Also, expansion cubes are not the best way to get points. Solo borg spheres with a single ship is.
Nope. Projectile scores everywhere. They “fixed” the scoring description to match their stupid coding.
And yes, expansion cubes are way better. At least with my ships.
Hi.
BP mining event, monday mining event, 2 days of mining and today 1 day of mining event.
it's ok.
Best regard.
P.S.
Armada event, hostile#1 event, hostile#2 event and today hostile#3 event with hostile#4 event.
It's ok again.
Best regard.
what the heck is a bribe in the context of this game and the current events? are we talking missions that make you "Donate"?
Is this fair, no great bribe choice but in bracket with ops that has it? No way to surpass them.
They’re in the Latinum refinery
These bribe rewards are embarrassing....just saying...
#1 gets a few recruit tokens but not enough for a full pull of each and a handful of trait XP. Not even worth getting my Feeshas out of the ship hangar for that rubbish! 🤦♂️ 🤯
what is the bribe star used for? anything?
There is an event under the folder "Gathering Intel" called "Every Man has his price" and these trophies are an additional scoring mechanic in the slb/sms. Take bribes to avoid having to mine at all, or use them to make you more competitive in the slb (also scores off mining lat/mats). This is explained in the event text.
At my ops (44) one pull of Great Bribe completes the sms. The milestones usually vary by ops and may be easier at lower levels.
Not scoring despite spending some o this
What did you spend
A screenshot would be nice
Same boat, I was hoping they were random, but if that’s the case not bothering with the rest. Seems legit👌😒
@swift quarry I am in same boat. I am ops 32 in the same bracket as lvl 35. No way to even think about the top 5 because of the lvl 35 can do the higher bribes.
They may also simply be soloing exmadas. #1’s pretty low. I got 54B last event just by soloing everything, no projectile
I don’t have the projectile 🧐
What ops level are you and @astral talon? I’m up to 44B with cubes, 8M Talios my best ship. He’s up to 64B. And I don’t know that I can be in any more cubes.
Also, maybe .5B from an exchange solo? I use my directives weekly, don’t have 40 to run to catch up…
Edit: he’s actually up to 79B… so 70 eclipse armadas…
I’m 44 with t5 talios. Most of that is from 5-6 expansion cubes and a dozen or so borg solos, plus a couple billion from exchange. I got boatloads of eclipse directives just too tedious to run them.
Ok, we’re at about the same level. And you have about what I have at this point. But yeah, you have way more eclipse armadas.
Players: we want more wars to source the OG strike teams, the pic ones are useless. Scoeply: more useless pic officers it is
Did someone say war? 👀
War on scopely? I’m in!
This is how crazy the weapon in the p2w event works. I'm lvl and utterly dominated my LB. 600M-750M a pop for the aticans I kill, 250M for borg probes, and 450M for level 55 freebooters.
Please update FKR Armadas, add 50+ madas.
I know that’s how it works. Because stupid scopely a changed the scoring description for the second run instead of actually fixing the scoring. It’s dumb
<@&509690795536941056> Why is the Formation Assault event and the Artifact Hunt event not synchronized this time? Does Scopely expect us to spend our very limited formation directives right before the event so that we don't have any directives to spend? The past 2 times these events came up, they were synchronized, but not this time.
Time to say it again - forcing people to sign up for the Apex Armada Event us asinine.
A bit late to answer, but for future ref, Ops 45. Did 54B at Ops 44, tho. Just ran Borg Solos w/ 1 ship, multiple Expansion Cubes, then probably 40-50 solo exmadas
10B more than I got now at 44, but I don’t have the exchange directives saved up. Still can’t compete with the 83B with the projectile (which he does have).
Is it really that difficult to click a tab? The reasoning is sound, been explained adequately. Either you are failing to grasp the reasoning, or just don’t give a flip. Either way, this is Karen/Chad level griping when there are soooo many other things scopy is actively doing to screw folks over. This one was actually well thought out and beneficial to players trying to help each other, not just themselves.
I surrender. You’re obviously a Master Debater whipping out the Karen and Chad Trump cards. There’s nothing left I can say
why is there a timer to cash in on apex rewards that I haven’t cashed in yet?
Spending trait xp doesn’t work on the sms even if it says it does
Restart your game. Maybe that will help
Yeah 15 min delay between events
It would be nice if the FC sms events had 1 or 2 of that FC in the final milestone of the event. A way to source them besides the lucky 1 shard we get every couple weeks.
Scopely ffs!!! Fix the chat bug or withdraw the freaking Armada event cr@p. No one knows, what anyone is doing, when our chat entries are ignored by the game. Completely useless!!! 🤬
Had two critical successes that didn't count for the SMS ?!
They don't count for SMS. Check ingame event description. No crit mentioned there.
Looks counted to me, 2 crits on uncommon and 1 common finish. The SMS counts that as two uc wins and one c win, or 500 pts.
Did the crit count as a success instead?
Yes, you guys are right. Because of the massive difference I thought only the regular success counted and I got zero points for the crits (which has happened in the past !) But I see they all just barely give points 😂
Crits did not count for me. Just the 2400 for an epic success. And the verbiage didn’t include criticals at reset. (I cannot speak to now as scopy loves to bait and switch to suit themselves as the day goes on 🙄🤷♂️)
Can we please get rid of the join button for the apex SLB?
Nope, it's been asked before, and they expect you to join when you want the rewards, and not join when you do not.
That's how many pts a crit epic should count in the Assignment Hunter SMS.
The correct channel is currently locked but I think trying to designate one server as attacker and the other as defender for the entirety of an incursion is a bad idea. The big prize will always be going to the opposing server, hoping to find an AFK mega whale that you can crack and raid for T, or even Q rss. The best compromise solution between the two that I can think of, while still imperfect, is enforced attack/defence windows.
(Although am glad to hear that Franklin event isn't seeing the light of day again)
@balmy totem I think incursion event is a great idea 24hrs against another server where roe are out the window and the only thing holding you back is yourself that's all I'm saying
Yes I like incursions as well, I just don't like the idea of being on the defending side for the full 24h
You can go to the other server on the attack and double the points
Or to rob someone who thought that being the attacker meant that their server is safe. 😈
Incursions suks. Plain and simple. Every one that has been run only 10% participate. They shield up and hide. And Why? Cause we think the event is dumb and we don’t want it. These new ways to do it won’t fix it cause it will STILL ONLY be the same few that participate. I suggest break the servers up a set of servers that are only those who like these events and ONLY those servers have them. The rest of the servers can be free from such events. This of course means you h@ve to allow players to choose what server they wish to go to in order to have the experience they desire.forcing ban event on the 90% who don’t want it to satisfy the 10% is bad for business
All I can say is that "revamped rewards and event store" really needs to include at least one of dolomite and strike teams
Incursions the return of the most pointless and boring game event -,I encourage people not to participate and for Scopely to fix the bugs and work on some half decent game design not this lazy nonsense for cash rich. Players
@ SCOPELY
▫️APAC: June 1st - Thursday - Apex - 2 servers on 1 server trying to do Apex - you must really hate the players 🤣🤣
▫️US: June 2nd
▫️EU: June 3rd
Shame is too positive for you scopley!!!! This rewards for ops 56 🤦🏼🤦🏼🤦🏼🤦🏼🤦🏼🤦🏼🤦🏼🤦🏼🤦🏼🤦🏼🤦🏼 who of you are able to think before you work?
what ops are you?
He said 56
Read my text, ops 56
srry, thought you meant wrong grade material for your ops level
It’s definitely wrong… will never need that mats. And 12B steel is same shame…. Have costs of 1T + per building…
please use common language in announcements for events, this game is played internationally and for many countries English is not their first(or second, or third) language.
what do you mean by "bye week"?
Those servers do not participate in the event.
Normally its used in ladder style competitions and tournaments.
If you have an odd number of players, the guy who doesn't have a partner for the next round gets a 'bye' into the next round without having to play.
You are not participating
Also very nice since i dont have any artifact stuff to turn in i cant take part in the ALB or finish sms since my alliance will not do any formation madas. Nice event planning-.
We really need better sourcing for directives and up the rewards for events of all types. You have this Artifact event, then the formation SMS tomorrow after everyone has used up directives for the artifact hunt.
For the love of all things good and wholesome and joyful in this world is the ticket event for ore ALWAYS MINING?!?!?!?!? What happened to the rotation??? I only need ore and I haven't used a single ticket because the mining is insufferable.
Why not make the incursion event one you have to “join?” Like ticketed events.
No ticket required to join, press a button,
Players who do not join cannot swop to the other server,
They also cannot attack player’s ships or bases from the other server, nor can they be attacked/raided by players from the other server.
For those who do not join it’s like the event is not happening. . .
One question: who will pay devs to create this complicated feature? Months of coding, testing and to write documents: who will pay for this?
They are already getting paid, just pay them to do ‘this’ instead of ‘that.’
only to switch from this to that, devs company will ask for money. then, money is needed to create a new task force and then money to create the feature. I have not money, I'm sorry
So, once they finish ‘that’ they are tasked with ‘this.’ No need to switch tasks. Finish one, start the next.
But I am not going to play message ping-pong. You are entitled to your opinion.
I just said how I would do it, and how I would like it to work.
In my eyes incursions is a complete failure and I think the community has, to an overwhelming majority, the same opinion. The concept, the core idea, of this event is bad and broken. The only way to "fix" is getting rid of it all together. Same goes for the alliance starbase btw.
You are right: it is a failure because the most of players use 24H shield to skip it. Without PvP events during a month, Incursion event, a global PvP event, is an event somebody can not play to hunt who is mining. Gamers only know to play with ROE
or they know this games pvp is bland and are not interested in feeding whales kills since the pvp is highly unbalanced in all aspects, dont be a hater on people having more intelligence to ignoring events they don't want to do because you yourself can indulge in but you wont because you would have to face those whales too :) keep crying though.
You like incursions, that's fine and I fully respect your opinion, but please don't try to interpret or comment my personal opinion. None of what you wrote is even remotely what I think.
I like incursions and look forward to this rework. I’m a mid lvl player and I too get eaten by whales. However, not everyone is a whale and I can still find plenty of good PvP time during these as well. I’m mean, what the heck are we leveling these ships and bases for if not to test them in battle against other players. If 24hrs of unrestricted warfare once a month, ruins your game/makes you mad…..my I suggest a pull back from the game just a bit. Ya might be too close. 🤷🏻♂️
Yup put a shield up and go visit your local zoo on incursion day!
What would make it interesting, the winning incursion gets to win the server merge with the losing server, or at least an option to transfer to the losing server.?
Go up a few more levels, I guarantee that fuzzy sentiment will pass. 😂
Incursions.
A suggestion.
As Incursions will cause many to purchase 30day shields.
A server for all who wish to participate in the event could relocate to an incursion server, for the period of the event. Then players with ops twice the level as other players can attack all they like
Or supply shields for players who decline to participate in the Incursion event
is premium artifact tokens not guaranteed for starting & finishing an armada formation? it was before but just did one and got no premium tokens
EDIT: looks like formation armada is still bugged. i got the chest but only after restarting. the chest didn't appear until then
30 day shield for a 24 hour event ? u get shields enough from the game to not participate if u wish
No material spend SMS? Have you learned nothing from last weeks success?
What’s the infrastructure event? (I haven’t logged in yet just curious)
Power gained by buildings and research
Cheers
The same day diablo 4 releases... nice....
Is anyone actually going for the PIC Riker/Warf shards? I don’t see any use for them where there isn’t a better crew option already.
Besides, aren’t the incursion events supposed to be how we get the various strike team officer shards?
Does anyone know what we're supposed to do with these Protocol Commendations? It says to redeem for special prizes, but nothing in the store to redeem them for
In future
Not necessarily
I'm not spending a single material without a paired SMS
Congrats. Save up for something else you want 🤷♂️
Yeah, no paired SMS + Officers no one really wants = 2 👎 for this XSLB
XSLBs suck…..that is all.
Whale harder
Formation assault SMS requirements for around ops 40 are way out of line given available of armada tokens. Ops 35 only 8.67mil needed vs 67mil damage...
Neither are players on my server. No one has spent even 75% of the last sms max. It doesn't help that nobody who understands officer value wants these officers for anything other than having them or maybe for away teams.
Lol, on our server we only have 4 people left that really spend money. All the other 🐳 🐳 🐳 have stopped and start losing interest in the game. It's one thing to spend a lot of money, but even the spenders start realizing that things are totally out of whack when you need to purchase 5 packs to get the required amount of uncommon/rare or steel to upgrade just one major building on 57-60 ops lvl, Scopely consciously holding back exactly the packs that have value to these people and releasing content that is just plain irrelevant to their game play and has no use, like these officers. That additionally to an unstable game with continuous technical problems and a management that says "they listed to feedback" but their actions reflect a Universe where they have never heard a player, let alone actually play their own game 🤣🤣🤣it has become a sad story, only about cheap money grabs that even drives 🐳🐳🐳 away. 🙈🙈🙈
100% agree. The new primes are one of the worst examples. It will drive an even bigger wedge between those that have them and those that don’t. And I’m not sure very many who don’t will really progress far in G5. It will be a progression wall which may lead to even more long term players quitting.
Excellent event synergy with Swarm today
really... done all event and gona end up 1 bp from gettng belana torres
so did the servers go down? All of sudden cant get in game server 40.
Not game wide mine is working
You must have missed some.
I’m 4 shards away without the 9 in elite track
Am I missing something about her? 10% chance to create a hull breach for 1 round seems statistically too low to rely on. 🤔
It is, you want her so you can push her to t4 or 5 asap
Her below deck ability is useless at t1, but her officer ability could be quite good for pve
Ah, well, not happening. 🤷
Even at level 1 if you get Torres to proc at the same time as Hugh, you can get a lot of free damage. Heavily RNG dependent but when it happens it's great
Had the same issue whit Borg event a while back. So this time i dubble and triple checked that i did all events.

Hello Buffy4914, Natalie here. Thank you for reaching out to us regarding your battlepass inquiries. I've managed to locate your scores throughout the battle pass duration, and I can confirm that you've managed to nail all of the events.
So.. why im i 1 shard short of having Belana ?
if i finish the formation event, i'll still be 6 shards short despite completing everything.
well feels a bit better now that im not aloe
