Try Kibuka instead of Eshu
Cheers
so these Q dailies - do we essentially reach a point (for us lower players with weak ships) where we are just starting a 15 minute countdown and ignoring it, then repeat 3 or 5 times? Sounds rather pointless
it's worth doing for the free protomatter
Oh of course, it would be worth doing if it was possible - that's the point - 80 protomatter or not, if the mission can't be done, it can't be done. It's not about whether it's worth it or not. I'm level 35. I've completed the 1* battleship tier. I cannot complete the others. It lets you re-do the most powerful ship on the battleship tier but when it chooses one you can't defeat, it stays on that. So it gets to the point where you are locked out of completing the challenges
I liked the old version of Heavy Hitter more with Actian hostiles were worth something. Now its just who doesnt have a life and is willing to waste a bunch of Trit just farming heavy hitters in a system anyone can reach with no form of strategy or planning.
when is the first code going to drop
When doing LB's they should be sorted by the best available ships at a given Ops stage. 39s shouldnt be going against those with Ops 42 Warships.
You can't, it's a rerun event for new players, and only they will get the full set of events to finish that meta SMS. You should ignore it.
its there any news how ,,doctor,, will be sourcing ? still miss 5 Bps š
if we are lucky, he will be in the End-of-Arc-Event-Store. But i doubt there will be alternative sourcing.
I just finished them today(1* levels). Used a tier 5 enterprise (3.5 mill power) with 80% explorer boost. I'm lev 35. Not sure your ship but boost helped meš Like many aspects of the game, I will soon hit the wall and start sending envoys to their doom.
Asked few months a go to adjust the "heavy hitter SLB" ops levels. My ops SLB event is atm between 50-60 ops and its really unbalanced. Got few hundred billion damage points. but ops 58-60 have 12'000 billions points at best. Would recommend caps on ops as 50-52, 53-55 and 56-60.
I dread to go to ops50 bcs of the brackets atm
I don't know if this was already asked about...
But why don't the next ones show up in delta adversary?
I am stuck at 1.
Why do some have the Diplomatic Protocol, and others don't?
<@&509691205798592532> Plz remind the devs again that running FKR Armada Events without buffing spawn rates for Deep Space FKR Rare and especially Epic Armadas is a great way to frustrate your players and contribute to worsening āArmada fatigueā, thx ā¹ļø
Theyāre subjected to my at-least-weekly mildly sarcastic excitement that I actually managed to start an armada I wanted.
filing another complaint.... as a player who is not able to finish tier 1 in Q`s trials and being stuck already till ships grow...
this event is impossible once again
time to grind 1000 hostiles instead
not being able to grind protomatter is another FAIL
No armada hunt? 11th-12th?
I'm so tired of all these cash grab SMSs and SLBs.
Events today trash , fast losing interest
What a suprise, forbidden tech events do not score
Where ist the armada hunt SBL? I had it, but it disappearedā¦
Gotta give credit where it's due, thankyou for fixing š
Oh Q's Trial is so hilariously meh as an event, yeah, cause lots of people totally havent already hit their maximum for enemies they can kill on it, with them all remaining too powerful, here you go, do 100 times as much work hahahahaha forget it
anyone else have missing scoring for the Forbidden Tech upgrade SMS?
can`t test as i am unable to get ANY protomatter at all... just buying if you can t complete tier 1
Armada hunt slb has appeared, but is there an accompanying sms?
Yep, got points in the event for using the upgrade stuff but no points in the actual upgrade event
Itās still the wrong one. š¤¦āāļø
How is it so hard for Scopley to even say hey we here there maybe a problem and we are looking into it?
Apparently very
That would involve someone coming away from counting all the money people are still spending š more importantly why aren't the community managers actually reaching out to the community???
@wanton copper @icy cairn Apparently your developers and management team didn't think through the FT Hostile Eliminator event very well.
If a player wants to seriously compete in this event he/she loses their ability to grind ship xp, rep, parts, inert probes, Actian venom, chests that may contain ship bps, etc because of the daily hostile limit imposed on us.
That limit either needs to be removed or heavily adjusted. The last event like this I had over 8000 points. Your hostile limit screwed me on everything else I was trying to accomplish in the game along side placing in that event.
Does anyone know if there is a syndicate event this arc and if so when. Thanks
To paraphrase the great Samuel L Jackson: I've had it with monkey fighting armada events in this Monday to Friday game. Seriously, all armada events do is inhibit f2p players (and really most other players) from running rare, epic or formation armadas at any other time. Armada events are, well, not quite a failure, but they seriously detract from game enjoyment.
@queen kindle I produce a calendar for my alliance (the only one Iāve seen in EU times) and only changed it (again) last night. The Armada SMS definitely wasnāt struck through then. When did Scopely pull this? Sorry, I know youāre probably just a volunteer but Scopely has made so many changes this month itās become very frustrating.
I changed the #š«-event-information this morning based on new information posted about 15m ago about the two events.
It should be noted that: All events in that listing are subject to change.
It was still there about 30 minutes ago. So that is a very recent change on the board there. I know because I double-checked it to see if the SMS might show up later. Guess I'll keep hoarding my directives. God I hate armada events.
My alliance is going armada crazy despite the lack of an SMS š
I checked the Unknown Adversary every day since it started, and the one day I forgot to look, there's actually an event. Please please please stop foldering everything OR add a red pip by event folders with a new event added.
This is by far the buggiest mess of an arc that Scopley has done. I have had more bugs, broken events than at an other point in the game.
25 bells thatās to fix a broken event? Seriously?
FT Hostile Elimintaor:
- killing a normal in-system red manually gives +4 points as it should
- killing a patrol (autofarm) hostile gives only +1 points with the same ship
š
No g5 in the slb
Might need to go up a bracket.
Hey!I have a novel idea...check this lil suggestion I came up with all by myself...CREATE MORE EPIC REG ARMADA SYSTEMS .stronger ones too up in deep 50+ space..im not buying any armada packs for the simple reason there are none anywhere.
Unlocked to day No points. Worked for upgrade but as you can see it refuses to score in the unlock event.
Not for me. I get 1 point no matter what
I'd wait a few and reboot, if nothing, contact CS regarding your missing pts. #š½-how-to-contact-support
How can run on forbidden tech events if I canāt upgrade the court building? Not enough protomatter to exchange it in refinery for emblems⦠and not enough bells to run several (and finished) trials to gain protomatters⦠and is a broken circleā¦. š”š”š”š”
Hey all. If I change alliances now, do I completely lose the ALB, Alliance of the Month?
Love the forbidden tech hostile eliminateror events š¤¢š¤¢š¤®š¤®š¤®š¤®š¤®.
It says destroy targets with ft fitted and you get 4 points per target. Find i sent out 3 ships for auto hitting (with 3 seperate fts equiped and only get 1 point per ship not 4š¤¬.
š¤ Interesting that any other bonus points applied in all other hostile hitting events it gives the bonus... easy fix dictate it on the event board and dont mislead players on different rule sets without being specified also the game is almost a full time job to play with all the different rss, mats and random overbearing amount of other types of items š¤”
This forbidden tech is the most ridiculous thing, why donāt you strengthen stuff already in the game such as reg armadas. Come out with higher one other than 50/51⦠or do more with away teams
if they make bigger armadas non payers will get carried alot by their bigs and not spend as much i think thats why they dont want to make bigger armadas
since my message got deleted let me rephrase it:
Q Trials Challenger - SLB is broken because with high enough mitigation you can last 100 rounds getting massive points and not killing the hostile. rinse & repeat and you become millions of points ahead in the leaderboard.
this even is unfairly skewed towards people who have the ships/officers to create that mitigation, look at the point differences e.g.
To clarify, you think you should get bonus points for AFK farming?!? All you're doing is being lazy and adding to server load š
This guy thinks the game comes before real life. When the game expects you to put in a solid 6 hrs a day.
Simple question why do it for other events and not this one? Why mislead people read the words it states killing a hostile with ft equipped gives you the 4 points. Its not me reading it wrong its a dodgy play on words. Glad you support dumb ****
If I supported "dumb" I'd be in 7 augment systems with ships on auto-grind mode with the rest of you people. The fact that they've made this change to augment space is a hilarious error of judgement, and you're moaning that you can't magically generate more points for being offline doing nothing.
Please, tell me more about how I'm the one being daft here š
Seems what you mean is you're happy to add to server load and gain points for an event you're not actually actively taking part in, and then have the balls to cry about not getting bonus points for it and, at the same time, create more lag for anyone that actually is online doing something.
Your instantaneous instinct to respond with insults just clarifies my point really. You're failing to comprehend what's actually being said and that's neither my fault, nor my problem.
Read....then take a moment to understand....then respond. People are much less likely to start wondering which village is missing their idiot that way š
Have a lovely afternoon š
@wanton copper @icy cairn
When you make slb events for hostile kills like āFT Hostile Eliminatorā please donāt allow auto grinding ships to score. Itās the equivalent to base humping for the pvp events
If you donāt like someoneās contrary opinion, debate it respectfully or ignore it.
Arguing with idiots is a fruitless task, they drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. Frequently, idiot is a matter of perspective.
Thanks, thatās all I need to ban you for your abhorrent remarks š
Have a great day.
I could not care any less about events like Hostile eliminator- the bot players will win every time. The changes to augment space auto farming are great. Big QOL improvement as I can level my ships when offline.
Why would you tease us like this
@wanton copper why... just why.....ā¬ļøā¬ļøā¬ļø
what do u mean by that.. I'm at #1 made 9890 so far with 2 fast ships and not a bot player.. #2 5000ish. you'd be surprised how i hunt so darn fast. i have the video i shared only for alliance members
Is any one else not getting credit for kills in the Explorer event?
I have an interceptor event. I killed hostile battleships with pilum and defiant.
oops i meant interceptor, i am useing Gladius, Di'vor and Phindara i see a notice but event score does not change
Are you instigating the attacks or auto-farming? Most events dont score with auto farming.
You also lost reputation gains, loot chests, ship xp, inert probes, Actian venum and anything else their daily hostile limit imposes. Really poor management at Scopely here to make an event that screws other mechanics in the game.
all they had to do, was give normal hostiles more ship xp on kill, but no, instead they decide to turn augment space into ghetto townā¦ā¦full of homeless ships waiting for their dealer to show up. its just one bad design decision after another for the last 2 yearsā¦ā¦
As you described it with a battle length of 100 rounds for just go with SARCOPHAGUS but the SARCOPHAGUS does no harm :-).
Your description doesn't work because the Hostile doesn't regenerate a ship's hull per turn so you can get to 100 turns.
In the PVP dmg event, this can be done with 100 rounds if both have Leslie crew
I hate how the FT Hostile grind and the FT upgrade events are running at the same time. The Hostile event should run first and then the rewards can feed the upgrade event. This is bad planning by the Arc runner.
Also, 3 separate SLBs that requires grinding all running and ending at the same time with no overlap or efficiency of actions.** THIS IS TERRIBLE PLANNING!**
I agree, no points unless you hit the ' attack ' button....
Armada SLB scoring needs to be revisited for SOLO armadas points. Watching people spam solo rare Borg armada when they can't kill it is notnin the spirit of the challenge. Scoring sh9uld be reversed. Get 200 points for starting a solo and 3400 for beating it. 500 for starting a solo epic and 7500 for beating it. Make people earn the points
Arguably, they earned the rare directives through victory against uncommon armada targets, and should be able to spend them however they see fit. You have the same viability to accrue those directives and they are damaging their loop efficiency by not getting the loot.
If the scoring mechanic is call armadas, they are indeed following the spirit of the challenge.
What the hell is the deal with the constant crystal awards for events? People need other materials too!!!
Meth heads
Hold it....it will come in handy. I though the same thing as a G2 player sitting on tons of G3 UC gas and thinking what the heck will I ever use this much gas on. One ship and an ops lvl later I was out of gas š
How is the timer over 7 minutes
battleship hunter is not scoring while using hijacked legionary
@grim summit then split the points half and half. Half to start and have for the win. It's assinine argue the event doesn't intend for you to actually win
Not arguing that, just saying that if they are engaging with it in a different way that you prefer, doesn't make it inherently wrong. I agree with you about how it should be.
The scoring for group armadaās makes sense because youāre relying on someone else to beat it or you potentially. However, solo you know what you can, and cannot do or go to the scoring that rewards points based on level of difficulty
Can we PLEASE talk about these mining events? PLEASE? It's a bit ridiculous at this point.
Whale less hard
If you are going to do hostile kill slbās then you have to remove the kill cap on hostiles. Itās ridiculous I canāt play the game like normal for the rest of the day because Iām doing the slb. I may have ignored it if there wasnāt a player of the month event and canāt afford to miss events.
While we're talking... After I did the first Delta adversary " go somewhere and scan" event ON THE FIRST DAY, the other 5 vanished, and haven't shown up since then. What's going on?
I have completely lost any interest in getting a 4* ship. All, i need, is a 2* Battleship. Like a 2* Borg Probe @23M Strength. Not so realistic Scopely, huh? š
Itās a repeat event for people who missed it. For those that have completed in a prior month, only the first event is doable. So if thatās you, youāre fine. If youāve never completed that meta and the scan events, you probably need to reach out to support
Why on earth do you need to ājoinā the apex armada slb? Fix it.
No, leave it so everyone who remembers to join it benefits
Please put in stella bps rewards in the weekly apex event. Everything else in the store is about useless now. I donāt do much for that weekly event, give me something to spend the currency on.
Ill take all the crystal i can get. I have 5 ships all begging for crystal with between 1500 and 6500 needed per upgrade.
Question for the mods: If a player leaves an alliance and joins another one during the alliance of the month and player of the month events, will they continue to earn points in the new alliance and be eligible for the rewards at the end of the events or do they lose all eligibility to the rewards because they left their current alliance?
You didnāt include enough tickets in the battlepass to do one a day for the 9 days they run. Only gave enough for 3 starts
Are we actually going to get more for the Unknown Adversary meta, or are we just sitting there with 100pts for the remaining 10 days š its been a while
No tickets for free? Thatās sadā¦
I have poked the events team, asking for clarity on if its an oversight or its an intended change. If we get any response then we can pass on the info
Tickets where? The packs are not even in the store...
Ticket eventā¦ā¦.zero ticketsā¦ā¦.nothing I can buy (not that I would at this point)ā¦ā¦nice event planning! š
Snert
Why do you have to screw around with us and no longer advertise when the syndicate event is happening?
We only got 30 tickets this f2p battlepass, don't we typically get enough to do 1 ticketed event per day?
only 30 tickets in BP? how we should do today's ticketed events?
Or the rest of the weekend and next weekās 3 day run
@wanton copper The forbidden tech upgrade path still is so horrible with the failures. I had 85% success chance and failed 3 of 4 upgrades in a row, wasting days and days and days of effort for NOTHING. this feels like absolute crap. oh and did i mention i also failed on the tiering up afterwards? this mechanic just sucks
@wanton copper What is up with this on pc... I want the cpl shards for the doc and torres.. but no way to complete this.. 3rd time this has ran like this.
It's by design apparently - you're only supposed to be able to do that event series once in full, then when they rerun it (for the benefit of newcomers and stragglers) you can only do the first one.
and yet they are what, suddenly incapable of actually displaying that sensibly instead they indicate we are getting more AND dont explain that isnt the case ?
Was there some new info about syndicate events? Some were talking, but idk ..
Breakfast at Tiffany's! No, no new information. I believe they are intentionally keeping it secret so people stop prepping for it and will spend more money.
@wanton copper patch notes and blog suggest the epic Metreon Cascade has some of its buffs brought forwards - however this still isnt the case and remains unchanged.
All these 2D SLBs is getting really annoying. We have a grinding SLB for 2 days (heavy hitter) followed by another grinding SLB for 2 days (FT Hostiles), then followed by a mining SLB for 2 days. There's a one day break on Saturday and that's it. Give us a break. Even as someone quite grinder this is just too much.
A break? Even if we can choose to play or not an avent, in the next days there will be other PvE or minig events, every day. Check event calendar and regular weekly events. In another univers, "This is the way": in this univers, "this is the game": there will be a break when incursion event will start, a break after "Crucible Of War", "Hostile Hunt", "Faction Hunt" and "Mudd&Khan (Thursday event)" event.
He means a break from the multi day SLBs. If it's just a SMS then you know there's an end. If it's an ALB you can rely on other players to pick up the slack. If it's a SLB you need to stay on top of it if you want any good rewards, and that gets tiring after a while.
We need more sms,s is what we need!!
This whole gimmick is on par with loot crates š
We definitely need a reward chest for grinding button pushing event after reset....or get some coder with common sense to redesign the amount of steps needed.It's an absolute joke and time consuming.
Because scopy engages in psychological warfare against its player base.
Has anyone under Level 33 managed to get past the first tier of Q challenges?
Iām a level 31 and the 5.1 boss ship is way to powerful for my maxxed Sally.
@lime pendant yes, my 28 has done all three 1* and started on early 2* trials. but, its a very old 28 - not passing through.
How did you beat it?
max buildings, max research, high stat crews, you can use exos, the ship damage ability, on cent/bortas can use cloak⦠etc. just use pike moreau chenā¦.. for these its best, if you get a special ship trial use the appropriate special ship to kill ā¦. franklin, vidar, etc
i will say tho, that one ship seems much stronger that any other, and thats the corvallen mercenary⦠couldnt kill that
Why we have again a herotic spent sms? We had already last week. The milestones are ridiculous for the players in the 40th. no chance for a acceptable result. The events become harder every month. Its very annoying if you are not a power player...
Why is my Player of the Month event grouped with lower Ops that I'm not competing for placement for points in Player of the Month in direct match-ups to prove the better competitor. i.e. The recent Mining event due to two brackets together award two First place finishes, two Second place finishes, two Third place finishes.. etc..
Player of the Month bracket was decided in the beginning of the month. If you went up in Ops since then, the other events have placed you in a higher bracket, but it wouldn't make much sense to update the POTM bracket - either way the issue you raised happens.
I never get any points in Limited Time Research Event. WHY? Half of my Dominance event was result of Research and yet I show 0(zero) points
Cosmic cleanup store needs a refresh...I already have the ships I can get blueprints for, and the non-blueprint items are either useless (for ships I have maxed) or just don't feel like as good of a value as the bp packs when I was getting those.
stop playing when the server is not responding .....once they fix it your points will be counted up im guessing
Uhh, just remind me, when did scopely fix anythingā¦ā¦. Really fix something, not putting ducktape on the bugs to cover them. Just asking because I canāt remember
given the recent price increase, we could have hoped for a minimum of stability in the game...š¤
On the contrary, tonight, no possibility of taking out his ships...šµāš«
Still bugs related to your new update (no xp, no chest and other loots and I'm not even talking about what has not yet been detected by the players)
With this, we add lags and freezes of up to 35s that make the AAA games on my PC pale with envy.š±
it's a shame to see that a company like yours can't have a minimum of stability, decent servers and reasonable listening to your playersš¤·āāļø
all is said, good eveningš
Mabe THOROUGHLY TEST stuff before ruining half an arc or more with half-hearted "fixes"
@wanton copper don't know if this is a bug, I was doing these this morning and there were few available... I completed the 1st one and was on my way to the second.. by the time I got there it had vanished from my events.
Any advice?
Only players who've not completed that series in earlier months will get the full set of events. Everyone else, ie. you, will only be able to complete the one DD event before the rest are removed. The Meta SMS cannot be finished, and should be ignored.
Completing all the parts before claiming any rewards allows you to do all 5.
They do let an Intern sort the new Events, right?
Someone actually does it live.
Scopely please fix the brackets for Heavy hitter. An ops 52 cannot compete against an Ops 60 for crit damage. Like not even remotely close to the same league, warp range, damage output, spending output, etc. A fair bracket would be 46-52, 53-60. It would be like expecting a level 20 to complete with an ops 46.
yes of course level 53 has to compete against level 60, you should start with scopely, they don't know anything about the game either. should make it level based, each level fights in its own league and that's good
I really donāt know, I am just a novice. All I can say is they were there⦠and then they werenāt. I was actually travelling towards the second location when they disappeared. Does not appear very logicalā¦. At all.
Happened to me too. I can't progress in the event because I finished 1... @wanton copper
If it doesnāt let you complete it this time, itās because you already completed it last month. The issue is you seeing it. Youāre not supposed to.
The event first ran in Voyager arc 1, we are in arc 3, so if you completed it in arc 1 you won't see the full meta again,
Just the events on 10th, 17, and 24th
I moved into my current Ops during the last Arc and the XSLB. Before. The beginning of the month. So that is false.
What ops are you and what ops are you seeing in the POTM event? For all the brackets I checked, the event brackets are consistent with the POTM brackets, with the exception being that away teams assignment SLB which had completely messed up brackets.
Keep in mind that arc-related stuff get decided a few days before the arc actually starts. Apparently, 72h before. So if you moved up ops during the last XLSB that happened on July 8-9th it's possible that didn't count, but idk if that is true for POTM as well (this is a known thing with the BP rewards themselves)
Ops 39
1,9M mats mining ... in one system only .... srsly?!??
-333k š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£ --- 50 Pts/PvP
I think this is phaser based diplomacy because mining 1.6 million G4 materials for me is not doable.
Yeah G3 for me too. impossible to do
Who comes up with these ideas anyway? How to complete the event now?
well at least you are seeing the event, mine still not loading in š
Was mining before the event started then got killed, so -365,000 points, donāt think I could ever get enough to make up for that
How should this diplomatic zeta protocol works? i cannot win fights in my target system. have only a 3* epic and must compete with 4* in the system. Mining i would need about 1,5 Mil 4* Ressorces. Its ridiculous. No chance for low 40s to make it. very disappointing...
This event is undoable!!! Force started as negitive points with no possibility of getting them back
<@&509691205798592532> pvp events broken as usual
Was mining on Sadell before the event started then got killed, so -657,000 points, donāt think I could ever get enough to make up for that. How was I to know??? This thing is absurd, I will never finish the event, pvp and hostiles only give 50 and 10 points... š©
This is what shows for pvp for me yet Iām being told for others itās a difficult system, this bs confusion needs to stop quit trying to force people into pvp. People will do it when they are ready to do it not all care for pvp or have whatās needed to compete since whales buy everything and there is no way to compete against whales that buy everything
100 % idiotic game diplomatic have to mine in pvp system to score. Which idiot decide this is diplomatic get killed own miners all 5min?
Mining in pvp systems takes away from your score.
Everyone affected by the huge negative score due to the PVP event hitting while you still had miners in the systems etc. The Events team is aware about it and discussing what to do for the impacted players.
Nothing scores in any direction for anyone on my server that chose Defensive
maybe they should auto complete everyones sms seeing as its completly broken
What the point if this event ? you can"t kill player miners since it gives negative points, you need to mine 2M G4 on a full system and for pvp play you just give points to whales ????
Diplo side of the delta event gets screwed, the only viable option is PvP, you could mine...for about 5 secs before getting blown up.
on my server, all the nodes are full and most are zero nodes
mining score 22 points/g4 in pvp system and have to mine for 36.5M score
this is ridiculus mine vs 50M pillum and own biggest ship is not even 1/3 of this score
this event is just totaly failed for diplomatical way
who created this event should pay back to the diplo players
Mined over 1700 in Fastolf⦠no points.
i'm missing this mining/pvp event completely, anyone else?
I'm having the same problem, I'm not getting points for mining in Fastolf
not sure if this is a bug or not but my page has been like this the whole arc
Is that your target system?
It's most of our servers too and no one in the server gets points in. Fastolf
Kaution any chance scopely could check if the events are actually working/doable for a change?
Itās under Delta Adversary. My system is Fastolf. Some other members of my alliance are in Willenia. I didnāt know Iād have to wait 5 minutes to post again.
the lag isn't helping either - this event is unworkable for some - sitting in a system with a bunch of much higher power ships and lazy miners not moving from zero nodes. How are we supposed to complete this? Can't destroy any player ships, can't mine any resources, can't destroy zero nodes
my feedback to pvp events: no more from this its ever crap. i chosen the diplomatic way and my need is to kill player ships... wired
Ok, not smart Scopely! š¤¬š¤¬š¤¬ you needed to MAKE two (that's 2 separate systems) for this event depending on what players chose originally. C'MON!
I'm looking at the Diplomatic option in Willenia. There are no combat ships there to defeat. And, of course, all the nodes are full. So the only option is to first shoot down a miner, for -20,000 points. And then mine 1500 material just to make up for that miner, before you start accumulating points... And then mine 320,000 resources to get to the 4,130,000 points I actually need. At 17k per hour, that's 18 hours of mining.
Had 2 miner there they just withdrew is that a joke
the pvp event is complete trash. Points needed are about 10x a reasonable amount. there are 0 warships in my system and only miners
I have no delta adversary event
it's impossible with the lag - even if I could attack the player ships at my level (35 - seeing up to level 41) they're just teleporting around the system due to the excessive lag.
This offensive sub protocol PvP event is a disaster. If you were mining you're screwed. Need 400 points to complete, 10 at a time, was mining and suddenly I'm at -37k. Not well thought out.
Waiting for the gift, from Sunday morning patience event
And where's our compensation chest for the screw up over the weekend?
it's being packaged into today's screwup š
Not a screwup, but an event
Mine too, I donāt see the event today
As others said. The delta protocol mission isn't feasible
Why had there be even a difference to choose from in the first arc if the diplomatic one forces you to do the same with ridiculous milestones and scoring?
more forced pvp for people who chose diplomatic ? what the heck ? - there is a reason we chose that
12.46m points needed... 13pts per G3... so that's close to 1m g3 to be mined, at 24,491 per hour - that's 39 hours of mining. 20 nodes in the system, all full. expected points in 24 hours - 0
If no brain cells were used, it's a screw up.
Had it been āmine anywhereā for points, it would have been slightly more doable except for the goal amount being crazy
I donāt have a new Delta Adversary Event either⦠(not sure who to ping here to get a response/explanation from Scopely)
I had the diplomatic event in fastolf and i cant seem to get any points for anything, tried winning/losing fights and mining
We figured it out without scopely go to Nelve
Nice. A delta adversary event I cannot see. Put in a ticket 72h wait time. I have no clue what is even happening.
Pvp events should only count warship vs warship not the easy pressy miners. Also more fair pvp fighting. There is no way in heck a player with 1m point can beat one with 10m point . Players at 45-60 shouldnāt be able to hit players 10-12 lvls below them itās a completely unfair fight from ships and tech those players get. Fights should be more fair to stop the bullying not promoting it.
Current solution in my case: one of my alliance mates has cleaned out the OPC miners, and doesn't have that event (they went Offensive, and are in a different bracket). So I've now got three miners down, and hopefully can complete it before midnight, with some careful juggling.
Delta mission is going to take all night.... I can't kill the guys in my ops... I've only just got here so my ships aren't as powerful... I'll need to be killed 100 times to complete.. how is that feasible? š¤
I would need 1.6 mil G4 to do it, at 40k/hour would be either 40 hours with one ship or 2+ ships in there to finish, and not get bumped off even once
can't seem to get any points in fastolf. diplomatic choice.
@wanton copper @icy cairn I guess it didn't occur to anyone at scopley that people would be mining in that system at event reset.
So if you pick the diplomatic option you either have to mine an insane amount of material if you can get a node or PvP.
How does PvP fit with that choice?
Can we all please have this Zeta event? Or scrap it at all. Doensāt make sense if only a handful players have that.
The PvP event gets -1 point for ever ore/gas/crystal you mine. Some people are at -100k
seems to be a mixup. i don't get points in fastolf but in nelve. thanks @harsh token
worst event going would rather play farmville oh wait I am it is star Fleet command
I get +13 points per material.
+1,000,000 per combat ship kill
-100,000 per miner kill
can be worse. our player need to kill 5880 ships xD
edit: ppl mined there for mining monday š
Yes I'm lucky I only just started.
What happens when we don't finish this event?
$coply will shrug and say you are lazy?
I don't see the event event though I picked diplomacy
Yes because I can kill the 53 ships having been ops 50 for 23 hours.
You are lucky I've been killed so many times now and I'd have to be online all night (and have enough speed up repairs) to complete š
You're lucky, all i have is this!
Same here
Congratulations on the ops 50. I think š
Same here on S16
If you do not see the team event and have picked a team please submit a ticket to CS.
I already had another ticket open, how do I open a new one? I end up in the same inactive chat.
@earnest harness Did that. I picked diplomacy. Nothing happened so I submitted a ticket for it. Wait time is 72h. This event is 24h. Thus I assume I'll just miss it?
everyone upset about event but no one talking bout the pay items in event store, the aurora gem, supreme choice, nebula
For everyone not getting points in fastolf it's NELVE!
I don't look at the store. Especially now they increased the price to $130(Ā£99.99). In the UK
pay items should NOT be in EVENT stores
players who cannot see the event that picked a team should be compensated for missed team event rewards through the CS team.
a little riddle: What is the last thing, a player who choose the diplomatic protocol wants to do??? i think its PvP event. And what is the only way to win the diplomatic zeta protocol event??? Yes PvP Event. No minibg does not works. The most players would need a lot longer than 24h... independent from the limited nodey
Where is my event??
For some on our server this event is already active today, and for some it will start tomorrow š”. What new BS is that?
Thank you for your communication and insight. Tam.
Done, but as noted here the event is a going to finish before they are likely to get to the ticket. Even if they are quick, the event is also meant to be quite time consuming to complete too.
S130 the same ..some have pvp event, some donāt š¢
I have 4 open tickets during the last 7 days, not even 1 answer to any of them š”š”š”š”
So Fastolf is programmed for nelve in it's entirety - not only the system but the point accumulation instead of getting 10k points per kill you only get 1k points which is what I'm assuming is what you get at lower levels, so I would need 233 player kills to complete the event 
yes i noticed that :-/
I'm doing everything but getting zero?
Same here
Itās not just a pay item; thereās a chest in the recruit menu
totaly broken. at least the 2 points per g2 are not 1 point
Has anyone in EU server received the promised "on Monday" gift compensating saturday's bugs??
Nope. And no answer to my tickets either š”
Nope š¤·š¼āāļø
I think it's the thingy you can find in recruit tab... It will get you 376 syndicate XP š
So... I can't even complete any delta events - tried the answers and nothing works. GG scopely
Fix this
Iād like to thank @wanton copper for the usual brilliant job getting information out to players during yet another event disaster š
Scopely's definition of diplomacy comes straight from my fridge magnet.
Outstanding performance of them, yes.
So you can mine as diplomacy but the whole system is just full. and even with pvp it takes like forever. what a fun those forced pvp events are
Spent the last 4 hours mining in the hope of getting at least the first milestone....no score. Not sure why I bothered
Omg: I've seen only three ships doing any PvP in the last 2 hours! I think people have gotten so tired of this style of event they're not even collaborating to complete it at this point. There's not even some whale with a meta crew parked in the middle like one might normally see. Mining gives you crap scores and of course all the nodes are full anyways. What a freaking waste of time!
Tbh i really just decided i dont care about the rewards from that event. its a waste of time in my eyes and just bad scoring...
This is bad in so many ways, even if it wasnt bugged. Better ideas for pvp events pleaseā¦
Going negative for score because no mining in system rule for Offensive Subprotocol Zeta is absolute š©š„š event design, especially on a Mining Monday when players have surveys pre-positioned.
39s are still with 40-43 players for assignment hunter SLB? The event is so mediocre with only G3.
Still annoyed at being stuck with the choice of PvP 'diplomacy' or failing this mining event.
Negative scoring... tired of this stupid š©
my feedback regarding delta enemies diplomatic protocol
https://tenor.com/view/dumpsterfire-flooding-fail-gif-13031064
Lots of us were already planning to run 3+ ships for lat Monday. 1 mil over 3-5 ships is doable at least
i'm -365,000 points and can only gain points at 50/kill, yeah dont think im ever going positive
@rose oracle The pvp event doesn't score one way or the other for many players in both systems. I'm in diplomacy / defence. Shooting player fighters attacking miners, plus 0. Shooting miners minus zero... You should cancel and reschedule once fixed. it should have been fun, but it's obviously bug ridden. I give up.
I caught it but still -1500 I'm done with this dumpster fire is an arc
Thereās a free one
If your event says fastolf, go to nelve
Whoever thought up this pvp/mining delta event should be shot out of a cannon...and not be allowed to think anymore. Just when i thought you couldn't come up with a worst event than franklin combt during an incrusion, you do this...
I can't think of anything dumber then combining a mining event with a pvp zone. But I don't work for scopely, so I'm sure they will top that next month.
And its not even that it is worded like a 5 year old came up with the scoring mechanic. Or that half the people cant see it. Doing just the "mining" is impossible, fighting over 20 nodes in a system, with who know how many people, all on top of a 20m (for me) top requirement? Thats like 30 full nodes... assuming theyre 50k. Thats not even accounting for the people not understanding the pvp aspect in the same system.
I would have to pvp kill 181 miners in that system to complete the event. So to be fair, I'd have to send my dvor feesha there 181 times to die.
I believe that's a negative sign before the 250k points; each time you do either of those actions it'll set you back.
Have not gotten another mission after the 1st delta anniversary. Whats up with that?
I don't have that event
The Delta mining event for today is actually just absurd for g5 players. I need to mine ~818,000 g5, when I mine at a rate of 60k/hour, in one system, while dodging pvp. thats a (if i'm lucky) 15 HOUR SMS
3* seems unreasonable as well, need to mine 200,000+ 3* at less the 10k/hour and all nodes are covered, killing a zero node nets me negative points.
Ops 44. I see players down into the Ops 40 on my list and up to Ops 46. But in nearly every SMS/SLB this month The Ops 40-42 players are no in my bracket so there is no direct-competition with them to make PoTM in anyway a fair measure.
My main feedback on today's events... Why is there a PVP event in the Diplomatic stream for Delta Adversary?
This stream was sold as 'Diplomatic' - PvPing each other is not... there's a reason people chose diplomacy - and one of them is their dislike of crappy PvP events.
Was the delta event suppose to be torture? And where is the comp chest?
interesting, the POTM bracket for 40+ is indeed 40-45 and then 46-50. Yeah that's pretty bad either way lol
How about mining Monday + negative pints for people who had miners set in that system prior to event reset. Weāve been throwing sacrificials at some of our players to rescue them
hole moly I went into the system and the lag is insane
What is the new event that just dropped? Retrieving...
not just that but mining...IN ONE SYSTEM FOR ALMOST EVERYONE. yeah sure, 20 nodes will be more than enough for everyone!
it's even funnier. Based on delta adversary thing you picked, some people get points for mining, some people get points for killing miners. And you get negative points for doing the opposite.
No problem with that, i have enough free mines as i'm nearly alone. My Event description has the wrong system in it. That helps š
so... surprise re-run of the court of Q upgrade event? kek
I have just had a new FT event turn up 8 hours after reset. Except I have no idea what it is I am expected to do as it has said 'retrieving' for the last 35 mins.
@wanton copper @icy cairn cmon, I'm not sure what monkey pressed what button, but someone in HQ just broke something. Random events appearing out of nowhere, extreme lag, and that's during a major grind event and mining monday and a pvp event 
The founders are unhappy with you, and have dispatched several Jem Hadar fleets to disable you. Lol
Not only that the "conflict" path players get to score killing pve hostiles. Maybe scopely should invest in a dictionary.
Why do some players have a Subprotocol event but not others? Iāve got nothing.
I also have nothing
According to revs video the "solution" is to contact "customer support". I know at least two other people who have missed more than one diplomatic protocol event. So the issue is known and apparently nothing is being done about it since it is somewhat random. Kind of like events spawning hours after reset.
If you've already picked a side, and do not have a Zeta event today/tomorrow, then you should contact CS.
Deffinitely not contacting cs, they may give me this event.
If you want the rewards from the series, then you should really, really contact them.
It doesn't make a bit of difference to "contact" support. As soon as you submit a ticket it gets closed without acknowledge. I have submitted the same problem/question 3 times. All 3 times automatically closed with no response. COMPLETE garbage š¤¬
Not doing the event even if it was there. I saw what it was like for the ones that got it. The requirement is that we should have fun doing them and this event is the opposite of fun.
@queen kindle I gotta say the same thing about CS....
They literally say they WONT help... Ive tried submitting tickets for actual problems with Armadas not working correctly, and taking my directives without allowing me to run an armada... and they say they wont help me but "dont shoot the messenger, because we are players too" which basically infuriates me more because I dont care anything at all about your game experience, because you are here to solve my issue and trying to make me believe that you getting paid to close my ticket makes me feel any better by telling me you are a player too is just wrong.
And the last part that I found funny on all this was that the CS agent actually told me "this problem Won't ever happen again" and what do you know.... it's happened again... Total B.S. and all that was like 5 tickets about the same issue because they kept closing the tickets saying they wouldn't help. that was the last time I ever contacted CS
Anyone know where to spend the special tokens from the delta adversary event?
Right
@Cand1e ia this event safe to do? It just popped up?
Why wouldn't it be safe?
Because it magically appeared out of nowhere right when the lag happened and thereās a real chance it could vaporize without giving people rewards
Is it a goof that could get pulled after I spend resources on it.
It's far more likely that spending now will lock you in, and guarantee rewards or a comp chest if it is pulled.
But you'll have to contact cs to get rewards or a comp chest once it is pulled
Read the fine print. Spend moar, be quieter.
Feedback on the Diplomatic Protocol event today: the point scoring is calibrated horribly badly. I'm Ops 43 and I've put a fair bit of effort into building, tiering and boosting miners with research. At typical mining speeds for my G3 and G4 faction miners, completing the Diplomatic event for today would require:
- 450-550 hours of mining, or
- 23 PVP victories (dependent on other players sending ships), or
- 115 PVP losses (also dependent on other players sending ships)
- some combination of the above
For a 24 hour event, this is ridiculous.
@queen kindle I have players who are attempting to do the Delta HF event but they do not have the Scan HF. How do they get it? Thank you.
They should check the event store for a claim.
i built court of Q building after reset, but before event showed (event didnt appear until 5+ hours after reset) and didnt get points and CS just closes ticket saying that delayed / no scoring will probably turn up later
That's standard. You will not be able to score in future events by doing stuff before they run.
Scoring on offensive event: kill 8 players or 40 hostiles, or lose to 40 players
Scoring on diplomatic event: kill 23 players or mine for 500 hours, or lose to 115 players.
HOW is that balanced?!
GIVE EVERYONE SENT TO FASTOLF CREDIT FOR THE ENTIRE EVENT! Inexcusable to post bad instructions and not fix it or release an official announcement correcting the mistake!
Some dont have the event
But events should start at the right time that is scoplay fault
We should get a hash tag thing going like with gala but with
no new content
fix game
Just a thought. š
In business it is generally accepted that it is far easier and profitable to keep current clients than attract new ones. Scopely business model is alienate current clients, make people quit, spend the money they gave scopely to advertise new players..
The Diplomatic Subprotocol event su.cks unless you are in the group that gets to clear out all the miners. I'm not wasting anymore time on it. Thanks for another crappy event, Scopely.
The Zeta Protocol is totally mis informed. It was not in Fastolf, you did not get 10K for wining a pvp, or 2k for losing
Let me understand the situation here. So WE'RE gonna be PUNISHED in the future by not scoring when we put our miners before the mining event to get points because of SCOPELY FAILOR to think twice before introducing any negative mining event on mining Monday? wow š
No, my comment was for that specific situation where a player upgraded the Q's court building before the event was running. You can still pre-mine for a mining event that runs later, and pull the ship home then and score.
How am I to finish this sms?
You are talking about an event nobody new about that shows up 14 hours after event reset not that it's a problem for me but that's a joke
I win!

You have people choose if they want the way of diplomacy, then make the ones who do fight pvp because of their choice. It seems like a sadistic joke at our expense.
Completely pointless. Either win 25 pvp or lose 125 pvp. With no space to do any mining. In a system that my smaller ships cannot get to.....
Just a thought, maybe actually do some PvP š¤·
What level are you?
Contacted CS, to be told, working as intended, if I don't have the event, I didn't qualify for the event.
PVP is not an issue at all.
I've chosen the way of diplomacy because when deciding between offensive and diplomatic I was promised the events for mining, ship xp spending and the like.
So actually everything that I can do independently of other players. And that was the main reason for me.
This event as it is now feels like a scam. Won't even start it. Not because I couldn't, 20 pvp kills are a lot in the limited time I have, but doable. But because I don't want to support it like that. š¤·
Any word why some players didnāt get the Delta Adversary event and if we will??
There were several reasons why someone wouldn't. If you've already picked a side, and didn't get it, then contact CS. #š½-how-to-contact-support
I'd try again.
PvP event isnāt showing for me itās a big bummer
contact CS, they should be able to compensate for missed events and future events in the set that you will also miss
Wait; so the Delta Adversary set of events; includes a PvP event for specific systems, but you can only see that event if you havent already done the meta ? so people have no idea which systems they will be actively targetted in !?
and yeah CS isnt giving this, they are just saying we obviously dont qualify, the last response we got was basically; if you did the delta adversary meta before, all you get is one mission this time (and an uncompletable meta)
The DA Zeta and Epsilon events require having finished the DD series once in the past 3 runs.
Our Active alliance members all did the first delta data event, completely, the first time it ran. All ANY of us have, is the Unknown adversary meta, and a Single Delta Data SMS again (the rest dissapeared once that was done) Nothing else; and when told there was something else the response those of us that contacted CS got was just, yes working as intended. Nothing more - All of us
Fastolf is actually nelve
on the plus side Maccimus, you at least have an event ! I have yet to find a single person in our entire alliance with it LOL and with a 72 hour response time on support right now, we are doomed
once they get to you, and hopefully they answer the right question, they should be crediting you for missed and future missed events that are currently planned in
so shouldn't affect the end result
here's hoping but so far only 2 of our alliance have any response and that was "working as intended, ticket closed" ; and yes both had already done the delta event previously which they told support in the ticket sigh (does the email even send out an auto reply to say its been recieved ? I was having issues with chat and emailed but havent had anything to confirm a ticket yet)
Sacrificials from a friendly alliance
Email will give you an automated response, eventually. I'd check your spam/junk folders later. Time isn't too big a concern here because CS can fix these issues long after the event's over.
Thanks Cand1e I will check and if I dont get one in the next couple of hours email again. appreciate all the help (and patience) you and @fresh frost have been giving us with our frustrations around all this
Mining Zeta ist Impossible, Need 1.9 mil G3, in 24h my best miner can get about 1.3 mil, so ivwould Need to Mine 2 o20 nodes forvwhole day to get highest milestone
I chose diplomacy, now I get negative points for hitting reds and have to PvP for points, this is the stupidest thing I've seen in this game so far
I was hitting targets for ver and hour and only was able to get 4K in points. Canāt get over 94k before event is over as I had to start later in the day due to work and had to sleep. Going a 4K points in 1.5 hours there is no way to finish event before it ends. I started at -99k points.
If you put ships out, friendly alliances can throw their lowest powered ships at you while you sleep
I have not seen a Delta Adversary event since the first one.
No, Scopely this is not acceptable
Scopely, don't run this type of delta event again. It's way to unbalanced for servers that don't generate enough pvp for players to complete the event. Milestones set way too high to complete even if you mine. Limited nodes available.
I am going to have a bunch of angry alliance members who have been chomping at the bit all month for the only Formation Armada event on the schedule ā¦
I won't participate in another event structured like this, ever...
No rewards, no points for player of the month! Pls fix!!
FT Hostile Eliminator -SMS not scoring correctly, should get 1pt for each hostile, plus 4pts for defeating the hostile with FT equipped on ship. Event only scoring 1 point!
Hey Scopely, we need a few more SLB and ALB's, 12 a week just isn't enough....seriously, change things up, give us some different events rather than force everyone to do the same things over and over and over and over again. There is so much to do in game as it is that throwing these competive events into the mix, especially grind events, people are burned out and just don't care any more but hey, this horse died long ago and all thats left now is dust from the bones I've flogged to oblivion, nobody seems to care, hardly a surprise that players are leaving the game in droves, lost 3 this week already in our alliance alone.
The Forbissen Tech Upgrade SMS is scoring but not awarding the shards
Spent like a billion bells yesterday because the slb wasn't on the schedule. Unscheduled slb dropped today. Please find the calendar creator and flick their forehead for me @wanton copper
Hasn't this entire arc been one of the worst ones in years both in bugs and unannounced/moved events?
Same problem with tech upgrade sms not rewarding. Waited 30 min so far but no rewards. Sent a ticket
Same here, completed the FT upgrade event and got nothing to collect...
Forbidden tech upgrade, SMS, not scoring just like the first time around it didnāt score than either it doesnāt score now
my ft upgrade took about 20 mins, so maybe just slow
Given formadas are broken right now, this is probably for the best
You underestimate how much a couple of my members want to try them anyway. š
The description says fusion rods count, but no points in the scoring metrics.
Please this is insane having so many weeks of back to back hostile grinding SLB's your causing so many players to burn out.
its to make you get used to afk grinding in augment systems ... welcome to afk arena stfc š
The points were not updating for me in the Delta Adversary event. I was down to one kill and repeated that kill over and over, but the points never updated and the event ended. Help please
Were we supposed to get a Nebula Shield?
Last month was a bit boring, this month I barely find time to sleep because of events demand.
Please ask Scopley to find some balance.
Iāll add that this hasnāt been a āfunā arc. Between bugs, confusing mechanics, endless slbs, and slbs that require grunt work (auto grind, spend directives, who cares about crewing or strategy), this arc has been a huge burnout without a sense of engagement. Fun factor has definitely been missing
@wanton copper Suggest you exempt passive kills from scoring - surely the arc runner didnt intend this SLB hostile event to be as shown in the screenshot - have it where you need to be the aggressor to score points
passive scoring doesn't count the FT attachments, so an active killer gets more points per kill if they have FT equipped
š they closed my ticket with a canned message blaming redos
Donāt forget missing events for lots of players.
Q scoring event is not scoring correctly as I could not destroy the Actain ship. Just kept hitting it for 15 minutes. Repairs and back and got points for each attack. I had every other attack on my reports as destroyed but ship stood.
Probably need more dps to beat it before the round 100 limit stops the battle.
Put me number one one the event list whoo whoo!
That's rich and totally false. Most of my alliance finished the event last month and most of them got the epsilon event yesterday (believe me, they were complaining about the scoring all night)
I wonder if thatās the same CS who told me back during the DS9 arc that an official announcement on this Discord was incorrect and I needed to follow this Discord for accurate information š
The kill hostiles SLB is broken and not scoring correctly. I'm not getting the +4pts for killing hostile with Tech equipped. Have tried different ships, restarting, phone and PC. Broken.
Could we do away with the 2000 hostile loot limit during SLBs that involve grinding hostiles?
In Augment it seems to be only 1 point. Also it has to be a FT that applies to hostiles to score. Mining FTs don't work. Of course you could simply be experiencing a bug which is unfortunately not surprising in the least. š
It does not. Event says kill hostiles with Tech equipped. No mention of hostile tech. Also for others in my alliance it's scoring with any tech correctly.
More bugs than a lot lizard.
FT Hostile Hunter SLB doesn't appear to be scoring correctly. It says 1pt per hostile or 4 pts per hostile while using a ship that has FT equipped. My banners don't suggest that FT is being counted, in either SLB or ALB.
You need to be the attacker to score 4pts.
Typical wording is as clear as mud!
The jumps in the Q Trials are pretty astounding. I was in a phase of steadily moving through roughly 12-18m strength hostiles, and then BAM: 78m
use your Mantis to kill that; it's an Acatian hostile. Subsequent ones will probably be a lot lower strength.
https://tenor.com/view/sneaky-florin-sneaky-i-sense-sneaky-suspicious-gif-16206142
Spend 6 weeks ignoring the delta event folder and then sneak a few events in there ts tsk tsk
You are of course correct. I didnāt notice the name/type of it at all. Was too staggered by the headline number! My Mantis just took it down easily, and my next one has gone back down to a reasonable 20m interceptor. Thanks!
no problem! keep an eye out, you'll see similar things with at least borg & swarm popping up
Actians are one of the funky ones, use a mantis or Tal if you have him
I face planted a 98m borg probe with my pilum earlier today when I wasn't looking š
Tal's specifically disabled in Q trials. Burn + Ash is nice against actians though.
aah
Well that is insulting and stupid of scopy. š. Yet another feather in their cap of anti player shenanigans to royally annoy players into slowly giving less than a flip about the game and walking away.
Really?! Iād been using him and hadnāt even looked at the battle reports. I just assumed he worked. Sigh. Time to re-crew, AGAIN.
Tal is cheat codes. Iām cool with him working on dailies and events and stuff, but challenges should be challenging - IMO of course.
Isn't there suppose to be a Formation armada event today...now we have an away teams event...after just having away teams.
Couple pieces of feedback I want to share:
- This is way too many away teams event stacked on top of each other -- it's reminiscent of several ARCs ago when it was stacking Armada events right on top of each other. People need time to build up stocks
- Events that call out a specific officer as either part of the event (i.e. the Tom Paris Challenge) should include at least some shards for completion of the event. I appreciate the Mats and all...but I need shards, especially if you're calling out the name!
This is at least the third (maybe fourth?) consecutive day of away team events. That's pushing it pretty hard on speedups for those without a break in between.
no FOMO event today? when is it supposed to start? cancelled?
Changing Janeway event is just plain wrong. You just updated the ingame txt today..
@wanton copper @icy cairn nice notifications on the schedule change. I should have screenshot it but Janeway's challenge was on the schedule for today as formation armada damage but was run yesterday as killing hostiles. Still shows on the schedule for today but obviously already done š
Here is the original one. Was changed like 20 min ago
They didn't even bother changing the date to yesterday. 
What is especially frustrating about this is you changed it with...Away Teams and we just had a two day away teams event.

Sooooo this is interesting š¤£
I'd love to have an explanation on the thought process with this event š
The lag is impressive
its getting really differcult to find any positives this arc
The Q challenges should be much more level specific - attempting to destroy a target 10X stronger than any ship i have is discouraging, i can't get past the 1st set of ladders.
What ship are you stuck on, and are you using the right tool for the job?
7.8M swarm - i have used over 20 combinations of crew and ship including exo
Have you taken your Franklin/A?
Treat it like a normal swarm.
Jellyfish!!!
yes - swarm crew, PMC crew, SNW crew, Franklin, strongest explorer, just continue to die 2.7M ship trying to destroy 7.8M swarm I am level 33
3 days in a row of ATA events is pretty boring and poor planning
Chen doesnāt work on swarm. You need TLaan
Higher level swarms are dual weaponry. I still wouldn't use either, but it's worth knowing.
I used her as well in my swarm crew attempts
I'd go with Kang Jaylah Sspock.
If your kang is low level, then pick some other damage officer.

Ridicolous reply to ticket for subprotocol zeta SMS event
What happened to Janeway Formation Armada event? People here were waiting for that to start.
Substituted for hostiles yesterday. If you did the Torres event you would have completed it.
an announcement that they are currently bugged and not dropping the chest with artifact shards would have been nice.
Would players be compensated for this?
Itās already been flagged to the team.
I know that, but an announcement so people do not attempt to do them would have been nice.
Also know this is not something in your power š
fusion rods arent counting for me on the FT upgrade SLB?
has anything gone as planned this month? I get the feeling they let their QA team take the month off for summer hols!
I would put in a support ticket, they may comp you the directives. Then maybe we will get a comp chest so you can get double the rewards. Pray
Where is Jelly Brawl? It was supposed to be today.
You really need to get your heads out of your butts and take a look at what you are doing. You deny us adequate resources to upgrade everything! You judge a player's ability on their level. Needless to say most players have inadequate equipment for 3 levels below where they are. Then in Entanglement Pt 6 you deny them any possibility of completing this mission by having a destination that's out of reach. Pucker up, you can kiss my money goodbye
The mission issue might be a bug. Some missions select a spot near your station to spawn the next target. If your base is in a bad area, it could put this target beyond your reach and CS should be contacted to fix this.
Itās scheduled for the 21st
The jellyfish slb was supposed to start today
They've updated the schedule again with no notice. It was supposed to be today.
It has not changed, the Pursuit event should have run today, but not the Brawl.
Scopely, why do you have an event that scores points to grind hostiles, but then penalize players by turning off loot chests and cargo pulls when they've killed a certain number of hostiles? I'm going to have to sacrifice my Bajoran faction pulls because I can't collect antimatter units. So thank you for that. š
Thereās been a grind limit for years now as a response to assisted play via pcs
I haven't gotten close to hitting the limit but I wish it was visible somewhere in the interface so I could plan.
Only been this way for a few years
Each ship autogrinding does 120 hostiles an hour, limit is 2k when you lose rewards, but scoring for events is unaffected.
So trick is do what you need b4 autogrinding.
And autogrinding only scored 1 point with ft equipped (passive, ie not attacker)
But manually attacking with ft scores 4 points.
But no there's no spoon-fed counter, you should know how many you are hitting,
Limit resets 1hr after dailies resets.
120? It's 54 hostiles per hour in augment space
after fixing the autogrind mechanic, they should really review this limit. especially if you give us a grind LB event
Guess ill try to kill 32,000 players in pvp. Thanks scopely. (I was mining over lunch time when the events rolled over)
Not sure if this feedback has been given before but this scoring is a bit out of wack. 3 points per bell spent is noting. It's not even worth courting when hostiles have health values starting in the 10ks let alone millions as you progress.
The bells needed to be scored at 100k per bell for them to even remotely affect the scoring.
i ran 1 epic and 2 rare eclipse armadas but it didn't count for armada hunt.. the weird thing the winnings did score.
Only says the directives donāt score
i only get 1 hostile per minute (60 hostiles an hour per ship) please direct me to the Prime Hostile spawn location ā¤ļø
is there anything else coming? I look at the event every day but nothing happens
I know that there was a limit in place, and for that reason. My point though is that their solution penalizes players that are operating within the game mechanics they've set up. There's no good reason why I should have to choose between placing on an SLB, or rep grinding/resource grinding/etc. Their solution is penalizing players who are operating within the game mechanics they set up.
Passive scoring was never meant to score, and they never actually thought people would actively spend most of their day inside an idle click and point game.
If the slb matters that much to you, Iād reevaluate life priorities man.
When will you next run the Borg inter arc event? I got a few shards short of the Infinitus refit but haven't had a chance at the rest in months.
At least you aren't trying to get the frank-A refit. I think I've seen them run that event like once in a couple of years almost
The hostile daily cap has to go if you have events that require you to kill over the cap to place in the top 10. Like if I'm going to spend the in your game basically killing hostiles for no xp, rep or loot boxes. Clearly ill use the auto farmer method with bounty hunters. Guess that will be less time in game
What Scopely meant is irrelevant to what they implemented.
Normally I don't care about SLB events. But this month their running an event, that scores based on how you place in slb events, that's offering resources I can use. So I'm just trying to score in the top 10. But at the same time I'd like to be able to do my rep grinding at least.
2/3 apex events automatic, but one is manually joined?
Really... yall want me to kill 40 worms today cause they don't go bigger than 46 š¤¦š¼āāļøš¤¦š¼āāļøš¤¦š¼āāļø
yes, so if you already have everything you want from the apex store you can still help your alliance mates without placing in the slb and taking rewards away š¤¦āāļø
Respawn rate is HORRIBLE now on Emadas... Scopely what did you do? Throttling back without telling us is not helpful.
Are you joking Scopelyā¦.seriously? Did someone misplace the decimalā¦..
Anybody youād be hurting wouldnāt be in your bracket š¤¦āāļø
finished pretty quick, jem'hadar also done
so you saying all the players the same ops level range in my alliance are not in my bracket š
Even if you don't need store credits that event gives research credits. And unless you have done ALL your Stella research you are still gonna join.
exactly my thought... let's send the entire server to one system and have them all kill 40+ hostiles with useless loot in it š¤®
Is it just me or does the shield seem wildly better than the gem
Playerbase for 3+ years: Killing Worms is the worst possible thing you can do in the game
Scopely: Do you think they want more worm events?
The systems with the armadas have backgrounds that give me a headache for hours. I'm ok with being able to go kill 2-3 worms. 40 is ridiculous, at least give us bigger ones then
Real math says 40
Scopely math says 10-11 mix of 45-46
Only Borg/Swarm, Jem'Hadar, Worms, Eclipse traders and exchange armadas to do today š
If you're going to do Doomsday events with milestones this high can you please make higher level hostiles? Get rid of one of Ber'thir or Allonir and just make it a 47-49 hostile system or something...
for 4 times the amount in the outlaw store, I think it's better to be helpful, but that's just me
Hey Scopely, anything else going on?
Can we get the cool down for this chest to be 22 hours consitently instead of a week? I get inconsistent cool downs and can't use all my tokens. My last cool down was 6 days, the one before that was 5 minutes, and now it's 22 hours. What the heck is this?
Please fix this. Multiple people in my alliance have called armadas that appear active, we get no prompt that the armada is already called, but when we have time to look (armadas get taken instantly after our merger) the armada isnāt available. Can you tell in that second shot that the armada is already blown up? Lol, because I couldnāt. Please please please fix all the things, lol
Please get rid of Worms and Cardassian Hostiles. They offer absolutely NOTHING to advance gameplay.
Not even for normal gameplay
Iāll add that player of the month seems to be for whomever can last through all these bugs. Our previous local camper (won all events) has dropped to fourth because theyāve stopped competing. Iāve nearly stopped a couple of times because of the bugs and crashes. Please focus mid-arc on fixes. This month has been exceptionally difficult due to bugs that are still ongoing
Enough mining events already. It's annoying.
Mining, armada, mining, armada, mining, armada,
Autoattack!
Mining, armada, mining, armada, mining, armada,
Autoattack!
Seriously? How many different grind events are you going to throw at us in 1 day? Utterly stupid timing.
add more grind events, so i can do all the grind events in 1 day ty
Can you up the spawn rates of eclipse armadas during the apex event, please?
Meh, first place gives me one quarter of a single pull of research credits from the faction store. I would certainly not be tempted to join and compete for just that.
I didn't say go full on competing. I said join. You can get passive points from helping through the day and get some extra credits.
If youāre passive and made it into the bottom tier itās 504 credits.. when I can get 12.27k from a single pull. I have so many research credits I havenāt even done the rogue store pull in five or six months.
I honestly don't think people understand the simplest of things if they are pay to play. F2p players have to take every opportunity possible to get these things.
I'm NOT saying p2p is bad. It is very good and people need to pay so the game goes on.
But sometimes yall kill me with this oh it's nothing I don't care about it. If it's a reward in a event, it's worth taking advantage of.
Just cause YOU don't need them, doesn't mean other people dont.. you don't like my opinion, you stated yours. Move on then. Geez
Lol. Iām not p2p. And youāve got the whole point completely backwards. Just because you would join the event even if you didnāt need any of the skins from the apex event store any more, it doesnāt mean other people would. So let them have the freedom to not join if they donāt want to.
Voyager so far.
Positives:
Arc 1 - Artifacts. Great addition for Trekkies. Doctor a great officer too.
Arc 2 - Voyager loop. I've enjoyed figuring out a more complicated loop, and enjoyed the warp range and research from the ship. Janeway was an excellent officer and isolytic damage was an intriguing addition.
Arc 3 - Q's trials is a low-grind challenging feature which I experiment with crews for, bringing back some strategy to the game.
Negatives:
Arc 1 - formation armadas, a pain to organise (and broken in arc 3)
Arc 2 - general increase of grind, but not much to complain about.
Arc 3 - has had the most bugs since DS9. Game should've been taken offline and fixed. FT has not been worthwhile pursuing imo, and volume of issues resulted in a lot of people not spending or quitting.
I hope arc 4 brings voyager to a swift conclusion, no new features just an event store arc to consolidate, fix bugs and bring a feel-good factor back to the game that's been missing for at least the last 3 weeks!
Iām done. The events are joke. Hostiles and hostiles and hostiles and hostiles and hostiles and armadas. Grinding for hours is not fun.
the grinding has become pretty much how it was before freebooters tbh but at least the freebooters help with a lot of the dailies. just events if you want to reap the rewards you gotta put in the time.... often half ur life but hey yolo haha
Took second in a Q event and the reward popped up on screen. however went to spend them. Oh where Oh where have my Q points gone oh where oh where can they be! Got 0 before and there are 0 now. Did not spend any!
I think that the way these leaderboards are setup for 28 and 29 are not fair to the 28's and 29's. We are competing against 30 and 31's. They have better ships and will always win in these events. I think they we should only compete against 28 and 29. I am sure it is the same way for other levels. Until I got to Ops 28 I did not have this issue. So please revist the way you have these leaderboards setup to make them fair.
@wise summit as you get higher that spread is worse. When u get to 31 you can hang out and do some winning! Take your turn so to speak! All the brackets are have a high end and low end. Just learn where those and you will be good to go as u advance! Just offering a better way to look at it.
If they would just make each bracket only two levels then it would make it fair for everyone.
Trust me I get it I'm 45 competing against 49,s etc. I just mentioned it cause it's not likely to change. But Im looking forward to being at the other end of the bracket lol
It would really be good if they did make that change. It will be some time before I get to 31 as I need to sit at 28 until I have all research and my ships maxed for my level.
The past armada SLB I was in an event bracket 50-52. There 50s should stay in the 49 bracket or have a bracket to themselves. The 51 and 52 rewards ended up being 4* crystal which has to be a mistake right? Being 50 I didn't have a problem with the rewards but really lol come on scopely
Does Apex SLB finish position count towards POTM ranking?
pretty sure apex & monday don't count for that, no
<@&509690795536941056> can we please always have some sort of pirating option for mining events? is options where you can hunt opc ships have it count. Like Lat Rush on Mondays but for every mining event.
<@&509690795536941056> can you check why no Event Tickets are available in the Webstore?
Or better yet scrap the tickets all together and just open the events to everyone! But seriously, if you're going to run the events, put the packs in the store. Or let me convert all the old special 1 off event tickets that I can't use any more lol
Need new coders.
@fading venture Happy to do that also, but if you put events that require tickets, but don't make them available, something needs to change
Tickets are available now lol
If you are going to insist on making Relata events over and over again. There needs to be something like a Realta warp range Refit. I'm sick of having to move my base for these events
One message removed from a suspended account.
Thanks
summoning is level locked at 31 and behind a TON of research.
disco juice is also much more valuable than a realta, the disco summoning though is absolutely 1000% worth the effort to unlock it
what?, it is then in battle, then at home...i don't even know where it is and restart doesn't help
Whoah whoah...what do mean Part4. You're joking right?
How can this blister of arc keep on going?
Iād like to see the mechanics actually live for more than a month⦠formation armadas were almost immediately forgotten about, and the same has now happened with isolytic damage. Starbase assaults were ignored after the month they were released too. I am expecting the Q thing to immediately be brushed under the rug next month as well, given the current trajectory.
I agree, so many mechanics die after one arc, especially with Voyager
Delta Adversary seems like it would have been a fun event, though never got them. The rewards for missing these seems off though. I got a bunch of protocols i can't use for anything. am i missing something?
@wanton copper @icy cairn @celest kite we need to complete the delta anniversary this month and make a selection to get their normal events from the next time. Getting a compensation on the rewards is good but we need a fix for this please
End of arc event store
We're missing Jelly Brawl
#š-galaxy-chat message
latest update I've seen:
Why have a Realta event that is out of the ships warp range?
check to make sure that the system you're in doesn't have a high warp range to enter/exit it - if you relocate nearer to the target system, it should work wth all the ones i've heard of
Ship in token space. Not worth the rewards to bring a ship home from token space a use 2 relocation tokens. Iāll pass š
understandable; iirc you can do it by using a realta to kill hostiles anywhere; worse case you can disco it to some random system
I found a full but one planet in the newbie zone and I just stay there. Every time I move to deep space something like this pops up so I do all warp speed researchs and just travel really fast!!!
Just want to leave a little positive feedback regarding this arc... Whomever it was that decided to do the 3 auction SLBs with the heroic SMSs running simultaneously for the arc should be praised. At my Ops, it is impossible to compete with the Ops 60 whales and mega whales. At least with the SMS, I can still get something for my efforts aside from 5 or less shards.
You'll take your 5 shards and be happy about it
It is interesting that you see this as positive. Let me be the devils advocate. Put ops 56..60 into their own SLB bracket
Either way works. š
No chest with a ticket for todayās ticket events š”
Thereās been a chest running for days.
I got one. And not the only person: #š-galaxy-chat message
the lack of an incursion prep event means no incursions this month? ty for the info kids
Yesterday I had one. Today nothing
Mega cube event?
Yeah was there yesterday
I was on top of the cooldown timer to collect aurora gems. Unfortunately, I missed turning in the gem yesterday. Can they extend the timer for redeeming the gems and shields? Or is this yet another eternal inventory item chipping away at game performance?
Same, not that it's worth anything, all it ever drops is the aurora gem for a paltry amount of syndicate xp. Dunno why they even bothered putting that in there other than to tease everyone.
Impossible to complete when the rest of this event never showed up like it was supposed too
Delta adversary event is still blocked on 1st mission, despite seeing 6 missions before starting it. Are we suppose to complete the 5 missing missions on the last day?
Canāt do it if itās only got 22h 15m and the 5 missions for it never shows up!!!! Someone at scopley needs to be fired for these screw ups
You most likely did it already the last two times when it run, you shouldn't have seen this normally.
Laaaaaaaaaaaaag
Please do not make another arc with 2-day SLBs for the entire arc. Pretty much everyone in my alliance (and probably server) is burned out from this arc lol we like competing for SLBs but this was a bit too much.
did you change goalposts ? iām sure i claimed one of these and by no means it had these rewards. it was pretty crappy actually
Nebula exchange changes daily.
They do it all the time.
So no additional events for the Delta Adversary meta?
It's a repeat.
it would have been nice to know that so i donāt get the crap reward for that one
well it shows that those chests expire daily
When is next incursion
Considering how far we are into the month and there has been no hint of incursions, we may not have it this month.
You should expect incursions prep to run a few days before incursions so we'll always have prior notification.
Just wish the team at scopely would realize that incursions need more than a few days notice. Due to their shielding policy during the event, folks need a week or two heads up. Also helps servers coordinate a little better. While those of us that play a ton can figure out the schedule, plenty canāt. People have work and trips and such, a little more advance notice would help scopely in the CS departmentā¦. Where they lack horribly overall.
They have not been able to keep the calendar up to date in the first instance chopping and changing events without notice. So I very much doubt that one can rely on Incursions actually happening on a specific date anyway. Shielding is something that peeps struggle with any time so it makes no difference.
is the plan how last arch and this arch officers have ben source ? or its ,,ok we give u like 10 new officers forewer keep on T1
T1 if you're lucky so expect to have the same result next arc. New officers....also destined to be crying to be T1 at best for years
You do realize that is EXACTLY what they do not want. If folks are ready, they will not provide food. They are not going for longevity here, they are trying to see how fast they can make people quit. Hence the ridiculously silly money grabs, painful event (multi day slbās) and diminishing returns on EVERYTHING. We are part of a psychological experiment. š
So the players are the problem. We play amongst the bugs that actually work in the game and see how we adapt š¤£š¤£
You were already explained this 4 times. Read it and choose what you would prefer to do with that information
Also you got the officers shards from the Meta SMS as a gift earlier, you are nothing anything missing there
Why did the aurua chest disappear from the event store? I swear it was meant to end at the same time as the nebula chest.
So, after everyone here complained this month had too many grind events, weāre now getting 6 straight days of competitive hostile grinding to earn bounty tickets for the 2nd week of this Battle Pass?
Seriously, Iām already dealing with burnt out players over hereā¦
https://tenor.com/view/its-robot-fighting-time-robot-fighting-time-battlebots-robots-activate-faruq-gif-20291385 Seriously though. I am concerned this will be dominated by botters
Now that the delta events are over, where's the event store?
Delta events are not over.
If you actually segment the SLB based on ops levels and dock unlocks it might be fair. If you leave it open to all, higher ops have an advantage since they can deploy more ships. Please consider dock unlock ops thresholds for this before it launches.
Looks like 2 slow weeks to me, just ignoring these shenanigans.
And of course staying on the free track this bp, will probably be double cost anyway for the 2 weeks. š
A month of SLBs and you decide to do more SLBs??? š“
Thereās at least another month of the Voyager Arc yet. We get the event store in final month of an arc (provided itās more than a month or two long).
Oh I am basically ignoring the events I am sure; they merge servers with Insane power level differences between the highest players, and then dont split events well based on ops at all, I havent a cat in hells chance of competing, I havent in any competative since the merger so whats the point
Yeah the group level spread for events is often so large is stupid.
nice 2 week holiday whilst the whales sort out the slbs ā¤ļø
No overflow BP? No extra broken desealing rod? š«š«š«š«šššš
$copley displaying it's unique talent for recognizing events players like, and removing them
Well thank you scopley for not allowing me to do delta events 2-5 for never even releasing them great way to screw customers over.
No it was 24h before
The Delta event only showed up a single event if you had already completed the Delta meta the previous run through, which it did say in there
Faction Hunt and Incursions on the weekdays? Whatās up with that? These have been traditionally weekend events and should remain that way. COW after arc end since forever.
<@&509690795536941056> I like the idea of the upcoming Bounty Hunter and Killing game events. But they seem like heavy hostile grinding to run incursions during them is counter productive. Why don't we just delay Incursions until later so that us players can figure out these new style events?
Chaos encourages spending.
You had Incursions on weekends ? ours were always mid week
Yes always Friday or Saturday in USA region, I donāt care when the preparation events are
The event could use better rewards then maybe more people from the alliance would join
Can we go back to having Incursions on Fridays-Sundays? Why on Earth would you make all 3 on weekdays? Less people playing = not as fun.
PoTM. Fun Event. Poorly Implemented. Every event involved with the scoring of this event needs to be Ops locked to only other players in the same Ops brackets for each event tied to it's placement. This whole past month, more than half the events I took part in didnt involve the players that are finishing ahead on ours because they were in a lower (and easier) Ops bracket without having to compete head-to-head directly with those of us in the higher Ops bracket. This is hardly much of a Player of the Month without the direct competition.
Agreed. The officer recruiting events, which are poorly named officer upgrade events, do not work well for players with 2 million in transporter shards (really) and a bunch of new tier 1 officers that you can't get shards for.
this is like a rerun of the first 3 years, and it's annoying.
That counting towards player of the month when it's not ops locked is just silly.
The only purpose of the POTM event is to incentivise people to buy packs for event tickets and to ensure they win/place highly in SLB events.
Your statement is built on an assumption that they understand the player base.
Heuristically speaking, this does not seem like a solid assumption. š
They werenāt always scheduled that way, just the last two⦠I went back and scrubbed all past announcements, the very first one was on a Tuesday
Since they were moved to weekends which was a while ago, Americas was either Friday or Saturday
Literally the last TWO. The one that was supposed to happen in February but got cancelled because EU went badly was on 2/1, a Wednesday. The January ones that were scheduled and called off were scheduled for Tue-Thu but never specified which region was which day. Novemberās scheduled date was a Thursday.
Iām just going off memory which I recognize isnāt infallible I remember it as far back as the one that ran in September/October before Canadian Thanksgiving. They didnāt run one after Christmas, peace on earth etc. I assumed they scheduled the January one differently bc more than a few people would be on holidays with more time. My main point for bringing it up is why run something that time involving during the weekdays. Itās hard enough to do dailies during the week, why add to that? Donāt they want to create conditions to maximize participation? If I created a game I would want maximum participation for all events.
I donāt disagree weekends are better, Iām just refuting the accuracy of your statement. Though starting at mid-day on Friday wasnāt really a weekend for a lot of people.
Congratulations to you. At least on a Friday itās heading into the weekend.
Hi, I want to know at which number of points of klingon reputation the daily "Klingon Reputation Event" goes to the next level where I need to make 125M points (insted of 85M) to complete the event.
Yesterday you posted an announcement with a mutually exclusive term- Happy Monday whilst announcing the return of the absolute waste of time event of Incursions- please donāt do this again
Hi, I noticed that for the coming in-between arc, there is only one (1) new currency added. Myself, and most of the STFC player base, have time and time again asked for more and more and more and more currencies and grinds to escape the reality of our miserable daily lives. For that reason I strongly urge Scopely to add more currencies and more different grinds to the game. I realize this might be an unrealistic request, as the back log of issues and bugs probably extends far into Q3 of 2027, and all these new features are a burden to the already overloaded servers. But please realize that your content is magical and the player base does not mind having to plough through issues and lag that have been going on for years. Just give us more currencies and more grinding and we will comply.
From the bottom of my heart: I have the deepest gratitude for the beautiful souls and remarkable human beings that make up the invincible dev team of this ever growing and stunning game.
Keep up the amazing work, people ā¤ļø
ā¬ļø šÆ so true, we are all desperate for as many currency and loops that take hours to complete to be crammed into this game that can barely support the already overloaded game š
They understand very well the portion of the playerbase they are interested in. Hint, it doesnāt include 99% of us.
Hey Scopley, this just isnāt right. I am part of the s76 and S77 merge. After competing the whole arc for chacotaySLB and in third, you merged our leaderboard. I am now 10. That is unfair and just wrong. I am requesting we get the award we deserve based on the pre-merge event arc. This 11th hour bait and switch is wrong on so many levels. Please provide our SLB award based on who we competed against the last 3 weeks, not who just āshowed upā in the merge a few hours ago.
Agreed. Same applies to S60/S61 merger. This is a sketchy move to pull in the final hours of an event that ran for the entire arc.
This is par for the course with scopy and odds are they wonāt do anything in anyway to make it right. SLBās are just their way of draining wallets. Youāre best bet is to remember this, and spend accordingly. (ie, not at all anymore. Play for free till you get bored and move on. Scopy is never going to do right by players. Just āpayersā.)
I only give Scopely money when they do a good job and introduce new content that bring value and entertainment into the game. I was a young lad the last time that happened
Can we please get sufficient information from Scopely themselves on new events and mechanics without having to watch videos by content creators? I resent having to sit through 30 minutes of opinion from a talking hat with 2 minutes of useful information spread across the whole video every time.
55.5K kills??? REALLY ???3
5500 hostile kills just to get the opportunity to do solos for points is absolutely ridiculous. No one is going to enjoy this, this is not what fun is scopely.
55K killsā¦.. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAā¦ā¦.not doing that event.
where do i sign up for the phd course on scopely events?
event store gives you a CHANCE at an officer shard but most likely you'll get some speedups... I pass
why are armadas counting on initiate avatar when it doesn't say they count on the initiate avatar?
start off by killing 500 hostiles? Go home scopely, your drunk
Follow up with 5,000 more (ops 17)...
you get 200 points for team armadas from first avatar too. just doesn't say it in text
They could from start⦠did 3 solos and already over 7k points
Each milestone gives you a new avatar to use and increses your points. Also it's a 6 day event. Easily doable.
and apepars to be required for some of next weeks events
This is on server 100 where the biggest players are in their low 30s. Nobody in my alliance has reached 23 and can actually launch an armada. Per the screenshot, the Bounty Hunter avatar still only gets you 1 pt per kill.
depends on your ops level... lower level players have the same milestones and can't do solo armadas and an ops 17 has to have great alliance members to do a bunch of regular armadas for them
Wow scopely, how much more generous can you get?
70% chance of getting 2x 15 min speedsup... SERIOUSLY? (this is at ops 44 btw)
about 20 minutes ago there were away team and territory redemption options, are these gone now?
well thats about par for the course.. difference is they spelled it out
Event said 10k points but get 9980points that a dumb math
That's (thankfully) a bug
wow.. they changed the price for the small battlepass to as much as the month long one... that is ridicules
U have already veterans SLB? š±
yup
How?
did you change your avatar?
If it was an alliance, and the whole month, the points for Summer Hunt wouldnāt be ridiculous
same here, @opaque mason
restarted game a couple of times, with rare or epic avatar, no change, only Initiate SLB showing
nice and easyš ,
NO OVERFLOW WITH ZERO BROKEN RODS = NO MONEY FROM ME. Thanks for scopely for screwing me out of a treasury chest in August.
How u finished that fast? š¤£
maybe increase the hostile limit for this event? seems like I am going to hit that 2k fairly quickly
Does dabo by any other name stink as much??? Nice reskin of a boring event store scopely
bang up job as usual Scopely, new event and I've already been robbed of the joy of it since I don't have 2/3 of the LBs and am therefore falling behind
Hi, I have noticed that despite coming up with an event that has every server running armadas like mad men, none of the glorious minds at Scopely thought of the already not so top notch performing servers would may-be have a hard time keeping up. So, yet again, we as a player base are faced with lag like we're trying to download one mp3 over a landline connection in 19something. I mean, at some point amateur hour needs to end, folks. I realize time is relative, but please get on board with our civilian timeline and go do your job and fix this disgrace of a game.
Initiate Avatar works for every scoring mechanism, not just for hostiles. Then i did 23 Solo Armadas and was done
I got the Bounty Hunter Avatar but the Bounty Hunter SLB didn't unlock for me
Point scoring for this event is so broken. Iām getting points when I shouldnāt⦠they canāt make anything work as intended except the money shopā¦
The event is meant to be for players from levels 10 - 60 but honestly, without access to armadas, there is absolutely no chance to finish this event, as you would have to grind 55.5k hostile kills. Really bad design.
i dislike the "error" of not having to grind 500 hostiles before equipping the bounty hunter avatar. people should read more and act less on armada frenzy instinct, they are bad hunters otherwise. not worthy of being a hirogen
So my solo dominion armadas are misfiring, i got ships inside but they keep randomly getting aborted
The whole arc is pointless without broken rods being offered anyways.
using Changeling?
It's yet another bs armada event dressed like bounty hunters.
DUH.
Next up, mining WHILE doing armadas AND killing pointless worms WHILE using a specific avatar WITH Mbenga as Captain.
This is why people get bored and grief other players.
So close to pushing this, but knowing Scopely it probably doesn't work either
nope, and this seems to be wild spreat atm
Now the armadas do not work. The counter runs down, nothing happens. The guidelines are gone. Thank you scopely - once again (as always) you have failed miserably and prove once again that you are incapable of anything.
Scopely run multiple events that encourage mass afk grinding and the servers have now pooped the bed. Really bad idea but then the issue with the bounty hunter change was raised repeatedly, and now you've actually encouraged more people to use it by rewarding them for it. Not sure who thinks the events up but they clearly don't play the game or have any idea of how badly the servers were already struggling
can confirm the issue with armadas not starting, starter was in and showing in list and even glowing. didnt start
server 108 - armadas getting cancelled even tho the host is in the circle
as always, something new gets started aaaand it's broken.
And I have this mountainside villa overlooking the ocean in Kansas I'd like to sell you! š¤£ š š¤£ š
Why do my fights suddenly take 5x as long as before, my d4 turns 5 rounds before the fight is over
Server 159, solo armadas are not running,ā¦..they start, take your directives, you waste all your supports and then the thing just cancels and nothing!
Rubbish rubbish rubbish Scopley!!!
same on server 181
Incoming gift chest of 10k parsteel, 3 dilithium, and 1/500 epic directive.
You're welcome.
You sure itās not 5 dili and 2/500 epic?
JemHadar Solo Armadas consuming directives but failing to start, be warned š© š© š© š½ š½ š½
Armadas not working on S155 šš
Veteran SMS is Deducting 20 points for killing a hostile from the 10k points from killing a Solo Armada, resulting in 9980 points instead of 10,020
please change the scoring here: 1 point per hostile in initiate is bad but okay (I guess), but then bounty hunter still 1 point per kill (come on... make it 5+?)?? you are not in any serious jeopardy of giving out any good rewards to anyone except whales that might just buy the directives to do the solo armadas... the lower level players that cant even do solo armadas yet are basically screwed in these events.
summer hunt is a fail... you had at least an interesting premise with the tiered parts of the event, but lost me at having to kill 55K+ hostiles in 6 days and or spend real $ to get the armadas done
Servers are lagging as if every player was trying to hit 500 hostiles
Oh wait.....
armadas not counting for everyone - some people are getting points, some are not. Great way to run SLBs - pot luck or wasted dirs
Did you make sure they have the avatar equipped?
get it right... every player needs to kill 55K hostiles (in 6 days) to get this event done... š¦ ESPECIALLY since armadas arent scoring properly for everyone. š¦
First pic is my events, second is a teammate. Weāve both equipped all the avatars but I donāt have slb. Anyone having this issue?
For the summer event, I've unlocked all 3 avatars, but only have the initiate SLB. How do I enable the other SLBs?
yes - my ship was stuck in battle while others were able to move on to the next armada - I restarted the game and it doesn't show in my battle log.
9980 is not 10k. Itās definitely subtracting the hostile from the score and not adding it
I have the same issue with only 1 SLB showing up
Apparently we did the SMS too quickly after reset, and the SMS rewards were wrong at that time.
So now we donāt get the other 2 slbs. Thatās great
@wanton copper - This event had soooo much potential. Somehow, you guys made it another pointless grind.
Rank up within the Guild. Starting as an Initiate, earn the ranks of Bounty Hunter and Veteran by hunting the appropriate targets. You can find the details of each rankās respective bounties below.
Appropriate targets are ALL hostiles everywhere? Bounty hunters have SPECIFIC targets - yet you just did another hostile hunt and added a SMS board that scores a little different. Since there is no specific requirement except "hostiles" everyone that can has ships in augment space or hostile faciton space letting the game do the grinding for them.
Man... you guys could have done something awesome.
- You've received a contract for 10 actian apex / 20 borg probes / a klingon war army.
- You've received a contract to defeat 10 FKR armadas
- You've received a contract to defeat 10 players >= your level
- You've received a contract to do X...
Completing each contract could have provided a meta token that would advance the SMS or SLB.
Instead... grind hostiles.
It could have been so cool. But it's just another meh grind hostiles and advantage goes to the autogrinders.
I've done dozens of armadas with no slb. Of course we all get screwed
They can barely code the events they do run to work right, letās stop treating the dev team like anything approaching intelligent or tied into the game and events n any way besides pushing the next steaming pile out as fast as possible to keep generating new packs for people to buy.
It's not just the devs. Whomever is coming up with the concepts for these events apparently doesn't have any imagination or actually understand how star trek, much less how conflicts would happen. All they seem to know how to do is package the same activities in new names and add more currencies to support it.
this lost the title of star trek back in 2020 lol
Let's make a bounty hunter event.
...Yeah!
Players can rank up by killing specific targets and then score currency for the event store.
...Yeah!
So, we'll reuse the scoring mechanism for hostile hunt...
....Um... so no specific targests, just all hostiles?
Yep, and then we'll create an SMS that requires changing their avatar to score
...huh...
And we'll have SLBs for each avatar setting, forcing players to choose the SLB they want to win.
...that's... probably going to upset the players.
Oh and let's put a battlepass with it!
...this doesn't sound like a bounty hunter event anymore.
We're gonna use hirogen hunters for the premise.
...shouldn't we run this in DQ then?
Nah... players won't care. Why even leverage all the new stuff we created this arc...
....so why... nevermind.
just heard, there should be a "proving ground SLB"? is that ops dependend ? edit: deffo not ops dependend.
Nobody knows. Some people got it, some people didn't. No rhyme or reason
They must come from MB Games. All they ever seemed to do was rehash the same games. On a more serious note, the scoring levels on this bounty hunter event are ridiculous. It has triggered serious lag on the EU servers, now armadas are failing or not scoring. Even hostile hunting is suffering lag. When are the EU servers going to be upgraded? They are grinding to a halt far too often.
Joy... Got all 3 avatars, only one SLB. As usual, cool concept, poor execution.
When is auto grinding hostiles going to be excluded from 'events'?
Or change the name to
"Park ships in hostile systems."
same
same issue for me too
275 armadas is a bit much for an event...
We cycle through the systems where people are autogriding and take them out.
I may be reading this wrong, but events look like they want peeps with out a lot of directive resources to grind 55:5k hostiles over the next week?
no; 500 hostiles. the rest is just a sink for Armada Directives if you have them
When all the botters get caught. Until then, it's the only way to level the field.
you know... I appreciate trying something new but this is arc break after an EXTREMELY grindy arc. Part of the 'roadmap' was to reduce the grind not get us to grind endlessly
Here is my feedback: 1. What Klorath said 2. The fact that the elite track costs the same as the regular elite track means I wonāt bother for probably the first time ever 3. The lack of overflow is the most blatant attempt to āfixā that we can actually open a decent amount of treasuries for free now 4. I hate the avatar thing, HATE HATE HATE it, one I can hardly tell who anyone is in AC and two Iām not an avatar Ho, I use the same one forever and change frightens me š„ŗ also, too much grind. The end. Villain mariner weāll be back together soon ā¤ļø
you can at most grind 14k points from hostiles due to 2k kill limit(6 day event, but at least in europe kill reset is offset by 11 hours from event reset).
they balanced it so you can do it with 500 hostiles, 25 group armadas, and 20 solo armadas.
unfortunately skipping over the fact that most people in servers under a year old can't beat any solo armadas yet.
they tease them from ops23, but you have to be closer to ops40 to stand a chance at winning them.
Yeah, we need to talk. 6 straight days of the same SLBs is absurd. This is not ok
event scoring is unaffected by the hostile cap fwiw
yep only loot
How does a lvl 14 have 2000+ points in bounty hunter proving grand slab if they canāt do armada?
You donāt get directives for solo armadas until 35 from memory and you can definitely beat them at 35 too.
I've had them well before that, a lot from events but you can also get them from vi'dar refinery.
and vi'dar refinery has refine options for solo armada loot.
So far I am enjoying Summer Hunt. But luckily the events/slbs were not borked for me. It has good rewards and is different enough to be interesting.
I still don't have the proving grounds bounty hunter slb. When the event restarts will I get it then?
they can join armadas lol.
So... My issue with the Summer Hunt is that yet again it's another event where the meta for the SLB is just to cheese it in a way that wastes your resources.
Q trials SLB? Lose on purpose to get the most damage out of each bell.
Armada Damage SLB? Do solo spheres with only a strong ship (and without Talios), sacrificing loot for the single-ship damage.
Now the Bounty Hunter and Veteran SLBs? Meta is to do... klingon burial ships š because it costs only 20 uncommon directives and counts as any other armada (200 points for bounty hunter/980 for veteran). That dominates even the veteran SLB since they are group armadas. Just get 6 people to run them and if each person uses 100 directives that's equivalent to doing 3 solo armadas already for everyone.
Is it that hard to make an event that is balanced and actually incentivizes people to just play the game as it should and not do some dumb stuff to cheese it? š¤·āāļø
I dont even have all the events dont have the bounty hunter slb have vetran and starter no bh I do have the avatar though
Ran two veteran armadas and I'm only getting 980 per armada instead of 1000 points...
Thanks for the chintzy rewards Scopely. I canāt compete in 2 different leaderboards, you give me a meh reward from one and pop the other one when itās halfway done. Really donāt know why I keep playing this crappy game of triangles. <@&509691205798592532>
Why canāt you compete in two leaderboards?
Granted I slept since then but Iāve been running solos for a bit with one avatar and swapping and doing group armadas for a bit.
Was 1st and 5th for a bit.
Iād rather run burial ships anyway, mycelium is way more useful than what pops out of the G4 armada chests š
The Bounty Hunter and Veteran Leaderboards didnāt open for me when I got the Avatars. Just now I got a compensation gift for one of the leaderboards and the other leaderboard (Veterans) suddenly showed up, but itās already halfway done and I actually do need to sleep some time.
Don't even need to change avatars. I have been running armadas with initiate avatar all day and been getting points just fine. I assumed this was known bug lol
I think what McLovin was saying is that they didn't get the SLBs - which is a known issue I think?
These minor battle passes used to be 10 bucks... Welp, I guess that is more money STFC isn't going to get.
That is an unfortunate position and yes, they have been late getting to some people
They also used to contain only officer shards. This one has full battle pass value in half the time š
This is not minor though, it has 20 milestones just like the regular one. Whether you want to spend on it or not it's up to you, but it has the same rewards as a regular 21D pass, which is why it's $20.
I was more than happy with the minor ones. ehhh. The regular arch battle pass aren't worth 20 bucks either. At least I could justify spending 10 dollars every now and again.
Thatās your choice, and one I understand.
It just doesnāt change that the battle pass is more expensive because it has more content.
Honestly, I am surprised I actually got a response. Usually, when I visit this server, I see people typing into the void.
Since it seems I am wrong and these messages are read I feel empowered to state more of my feedback.
I think these arcs and events like it are over valued because they add content without fixing issues with the current content. Also, why keep adding more when there is so much already? It's another reason I find it hard to justify spending. Allowing the coders of the game to fix the issues, and spending more time on existing content (showing care and concern for that hard work) before adding a bunch of new content would add enough value to the game that you might get important small revenue generators to increase their buying.
I don't understand how the Summer Hunt can be completed by players level 32 and lower without an exorbitant amount of cash for regular directives and even then 5he amount of time it would take? It looks like their scoring is the same regardless of level. How are they supposed to complete this event?
'start UC armada 100 points', but when I start a klingon burial ship armada, which is a group armada, I only get 20 points. Which wasn't the case when the event started. Y'all nerfed it to 'spend directives', as the klingon burial armadas are 20 UC directives. At least have the decency to change the event details if you're going to do something like that. What a sneaky and sly thing to do.
This is a very stupid and worst event... 1 points for one kill that is so boring to do only veteran event with solo armada is fun š©
Thereās no overflow to this battle pass ? So itās not like a normal one so why charge the normal price actually looking at the rewards their pretty poor and supposedly we have incursions in there somewhere chances are because of it youāll pay your 20 but be unable to complete surely scopley canāt be that desperate for the cash or is that all we are to the new owners cash cows prices went up then we get added content for more money the new owners seem to want to drain everyone
Maybe it would be a good idea to disable the hostile loot cap when running an event that requires you to kill thousands of hostiles per day.
Hilariously this event has become an autofarmers event. Augment space has never looked so busy!
Autofarm -> switch avatar & do solo armadas -> switch avatar back & autofarm
But with all the autofarming you can't properly do the voyager, borg & actian loops because of the loot limit
but on the autofarming event, you only really need to be top50 to get the ticket
RNG for the The summer hunt, event currency is poor, 1 officer shard 10 chests pulled so far, come on guys really @wanton copper
Top 10 get 2 tickets in the bounty hunter event
@wanton copper @icy cairn im half enjoying this event, love the progression route of the events, dislike the only way to compete high in the slbs is back to back armadas constantly šš but the REAL ISSUE is the very poor rng for officers in event storeā¦pulled 3 lots of 3 chests & got no officer shards at all (9 chests) this for me is a sour taste for the solid input im putting in (2nd & 9th in slbs) we should be guranteed x amount of shards per pull & have x amount rng based. Itās a shame something new & different for me will be remembered for absolutely shocking bad rewards
Still missing one slb, just filed a ticket on it
The 3 avatar pictures should be beside each other in the chooser screen. Itās a long list, they donāt have anything special to highlight them and they are far from each other. Needlessly complicated as always
still missing an SLB
More events need to have 4* uncommon ship parts. There is only 1 event (heroic officer recruit) after ops 40 that provides uncommon ship parts. Put more uncommon ship parts as rewards in battlepass please.
Nice again Scopley overlords. Create an event where we have to kill thousands of reds to get to next level then we hit limit so all the solo events we do fir the next part don't pay out. Hugs and š.
overflow is free, it has nothing to do with the price?
Well done your correct but if you read it instead just jumping in the overflow is designed to make sure you can complete the battle pass ie extra days points if you miss any for instance they have system issues or they decide to do another 2 day system wide pvp event where you canāt complete on that day i mean if your like most of us have work families a life outside scopley so only have a limited time to play available
Most months there is no leeway with the overflow. You have to complete ALL BP events.
This BP is also designed to completed with around 2 days of breathing. It's 13D long but it should be completed with 11D of full tier scoring. So, again, the BP track is exactly the same as a regular month BP in terms of rewards and leeway to complete. Which is why the price is the same.
Scoring for diff slbās switching btwn avatars is very smooth and accurate so far.
Good job
Anyone got any officer shards from the summer hunt event store? 17 crates and not a single officer shard....
Except you don't have to switch. Just use the Initiate one
tell me how to autofarm armada š (and good luck on ranking top 10 on autofarming hostiles on that SLB)
You're not getting into the top 10 by only autofarming, but the passive points from it while doing armadas make a difference in your placement on the LB
Day 1 of events hasn't ended yet and i'm already burnt out. Armadas and hostile grinding are boring, especially when ran almost continuosly for 24 hours. Going back to standard dailies and only taking a glance at these resource and time wasting events
I keep warning them these over valued cash grabs are going to end this game. If STFC is still operating in '24, I'll be surprised. Shame, I really like the community of people.
Was there any response to the hostile value being taken out of the solo armada value?.
this event is a nightmare
Not sure Scopely thought out Summer Hunt properly. Running it alongside Faction Hunt and now Cerritos events is just laughable
Nope, no response at all
Can we have the downtime rather, it will be a refreshing change to the hostile and Armada grindfest.
Ok⦠day 2⦠it starts to be annoying⦠5 more days with 7-8 ships on auto grind to go⦠š
Not to mention another armada event. My directives are gone, lol.
When they released the Freebooter and Exborg systems and faction, Scopely said they had listened to how much players hated the daily grind... fast forward to this event... 6 days of a constant grind. Tone deaf?
Were we supposed to get all three slb events again or just the highest rank we reached previously?
Only highest
I still only have supreme choice SLB haven't seen others even with veteran avatar and epic frame
Did I miss that in the in game news or was it a content creator announcement only? So I know where to direct my alliance.
See official announcement
It was pretty vague on how this was going to play out. I went all in on the first day and now have no directives to rank in the follow up day SLB's. NO YOU CAN'T HAVE MY MONEY! š
@icy cairn <@&509691205798592532> Pardon but I need some further clarification from your recent announcement. When you said only one SLB per player, did you mean only one āProving Groundsā SLB per player? What about the Supreme Choice SLB are you not counting that one? Cuz some in my Alliance are reporting seeing only the Supreme Choice SLB and not seeing any Proving Grounds SLB at all š¤
Its an update about Summer Hunt SLB's
You need to do daily quest for days for ten days so you can do one uncommon armada. Then you collect 200 from chests for rare then do the rare and then you do the rare. Then you get epic directives for epic. And scopely think let's start an event for f2p misers but let's make sure that they can't complete the events because we will set it so! Scopely should just flat out tell people that we will even twerk for those who throw dollars at us.
If they can grab a screenshot showing 0 SLB's populated for them it would be good
@icy cairn <@&509691205798592532> to complete the supreme choice slb one needs to do 225 uc armadas or 6 rare armadas or 3 epic armadas but eclipse don't count. Please elaborate how much time does it take to save up enough directives for these.
Dont know what you mean with "please elaborate"
Do you mean the SMS?
You also cant complete SLB's
Everything on that scoring metric has different time frames for how long it will take you to get Armada Dirs for Group or the various different Solo options.
Yes i meant to say explain and I meant sms. Scopely should start putting a note on such events which says 'not for f2p'
š that would require to much effort
And honesty too. You know considering their hoe attitude scopely should start a strip club
Yeah, I'm done buying armada directives. Seriously.
I have over 2m transporter shards and they want to sell officers indirectly by Armada events?
I will not be participating in any of these events, not worth the time and effort. I don't have all day to sit and run armadas and even the players in my alliance who normally are willing to drop coin for directives are looking at this thinking about taking 2 weeks off.
I'd try to earn some of the "event tickets," there are a lot of placings that award them and they'll be needed next week.
Yeah, after reading how that event is going to work too, hard pass lol I'll kill 1 hostile, get in the top 100 and call it good. Ticketed events in general are a bad idea and just another choke point to "encourage" spending, double and tripling down on them like they are now, especially when they've made it clear that you won't be able to buy enough tickets to complete next weeks events, just another way to bleed us dry of resources and "encourage" spending. Watch, how much you want to be that next month is going to be armada heavy too. I like the idea of this progressive style SMS, it was actually quite an interesting mechanic, and for the most part worked as expected, the parallel SLBs really did encourage some strategic thinking and could be something that, with some tweaking, I could see being very well implemented and received going forward; just maybe with a different scoring metric, or multiple scoring metrics. Armada sourcing always being a hot topic and a point of complaint from the community, this seems like just a bad idea to run 6 days of consecutive events that the only real way to be competitive, is to run aramdas, and solos at that if you really want to be honest about it.
This event is a nice break from playing the game. I've parked some ships in augment space and let them score for me. Since scoring against whales basically requires all 7 ships and ultimatly I'm running up against the 2000 limit, I'm just taking a break. Feels a little weird, maybe withdrawl symptoms.
I put the game down, talked to my wife, discovered I have kids, went to bed on time, woke up rested, did my day job...
Thanks Scopely for giving me a reason to quit playing.
Good move, 1/3rd of the value for zero of the effort. š
Summer Hunt is to me a fun new event in general. But one piece of feedback:
Yesterday, you ran an SLB that required me to throw out every last solo armada directive that I had to be able to compete. Today you run the same event. Seriously, what? Why would you do that?
My only chance at competing in this second run is thus afk killing hostiles in augment space, which Iām doing with 6 ships concurrently.
That makes 6 kills per minute, 360 kills per hour, which means after 6 hours Iām easily over the daily hostile kill/loot limit - but I still have an event requiring me to spend regular armada directives, which I obviously cant do when I get no loot.
So long text short:
Please dont run the same SLB on two days in sequence.
Also, please increase that daily hostile kill/loot limit if you plan on running any more events that give points per hostile killed
You may have reached the 2,000 hostile limit for the day. After hitting 2,000 hostiles, you will no longer receive loot, chests, XP, or rep from hostiles until the limit resets (currently about 1 hour after daily reset).
Shut up @ivory orchid!
Oh don't misunderstand me, I busted by butt and this morning yesterday and burned through a good stack of directives, I finished the first Veteran SLB event in 9th, my score about half of what the guys in 1st took, so I'm not unwilling to do the work but I also don't have the luxury every day to sit and baby sit armadas all day, and especially not for 6 days in a row. As I said, the SMS impressed me and I actually really like how it worked, but I also have no desire to sit and stare at ships running armadas all day, Apex pretty much killed that and its only 1 day a week. Person preference obviously and I know a good chunk of my alliance will do just that, but something that could be awesome, is just another squeeze.
Well I liked the idea on the event haven't been able to do any. Armadas for 2 days now. (eu 155) I'm back to just doing dailies and faction hunt. Kind of a let down.
I haven't received any comp chest and I'm missing 2 slbs from yesterday and 1 from today.
What the heck is going on with the events.
Cerritos SLB. As ops52 i compete with ops60. Something is seriously wrong with slb events where you have to compete with players that not only have ships just above what you canāt even get. But 3 ships higherā¦
So with an event that require killing feck loads of hostiles when is the stupid hostile limit going to be removed???
Guess im not doing Faction Hunt or the Cerritos event today then š”š”š”
people can't do normal grinds, mantis, voyager, borg etc because they have hit daily 2k limit on hostile loot by competing in this new events
We have asked the team to reassess the 2k cap in light of recent events that lead more and more players to hit the limit. Not sure what will come of it, but the request was made.
any chance of asking them to fix the game at same time then š¤£
LOL I have made that request hundreds, if not thousands of times, over the past 4+ years. š¤£
have people in alliance considering quitting game over these events and 2k loot limit, thanks scopely
Which is ironic, because Jess is in charge of the coding..
(reposted here per suggestion)
I would like to know what players informed the developer of the Summer Event that this would be entertaining, so I can find out what they were on and get some myself. Because doing the exact same thing for 6 straight days is an exponential grind that makes my eyes bleed and question my desire to keep going.
I just parked my ships in hostile space and turned the game off. Check in every now and then and redeploy if required.
Thanks! š
If we do a version of this event again I'd like the avatars to be more pretty.
that's ridiculous 'forcing' everyone to wear 3 same avatars and burning directives 2 days in a row; scary to foresee what other events to face in a near future
I think having different avatars that put you in different teams or events could be interesting.
No leaderboards past initiate. Been doing armadas all day and not scoring for anything. Please fix your game.
when do i get a comp for the dominion solo armada directives that were wasted on non-starters ?
I like the Summer Hunt event. Its different and fun. Remember everyone you don't have to complete everything. Some stuff may not be doable for everyone. Also, if I had a dime for every post every day about how some new event just caused like a whole server to quite, then I could buy everyone here a pack from the store. Seriously....who quits today becuase of an event that launched. š
This event is a slap in the face for all players under level 40!!! Single armadas are only possible from level 36! With group armadas you would have to do 277 to get the highest price and 55500 chasing enemies is not serious. The only thing that won't be the same are the rewards next week, of course the high level players won't get the same as players at level 20. Fair play looks different!!!
Why the Summer Hunt sucks #367; Ive killed so many hostiles for it i have hit the loot limit so i can not earn Eclipse Security Codes to claim the Rogue Directives, Rep & Credits chest
Support closing tickets about summer hunt SLBs without a response is unacceptable. I received a comp chest for 51-100 rewards when there arent even 50 players in my bracket. Meanwhile, there are loads of folks that triple dipped SLBs and have an unfair advantage for the events that run next week. Please do better, Scopely.
So what wrong with your bounty hunter event now? The great chase seems to be scoring the group armada correctly. The proving ground event is only scoring kills a single hostles!! Yet the Veteran proving ground is scoring like the vet avatar is equipped? You ever going going to play test these events better?
I know āIā am playing less. And spending nothing because I see no point if I am not playing as much. š¤·āāļø
Yeah, this push to spend more and play more has gotten out of hand. I gotta leave this and every other server that give game event notifications. Events don't matter anymore, and honestly very annoying. In fact, I really only play because like interacting with the players on my server. So, I am going to do my best to enjoy the crew I play with until Scopely runs the game into the ground.
Borg solos, I have done 5 in last two days. The real issue is that all these event are designed to use up directives and sell packs.
And again eclipse armadas doesnāt count in the Supreme event. Why? How shall we get 22,5k points if epic and rare directions are not available without paying 100ā¬? Realy uncool.
<@&509690795536941056> please note this and report it back
⦠itās not about fair play, itās all about making money šš»
Great chase event is a crock
Milestones too high for the rewards being offered. Too time consuming. Bored of it after a day. Event is too long and milestones impossible
Glad Scopely are trying different styles of events; wish they'd test events before release... Any new content released would be reckless and idiotic until they've fixed the lengthly list of issues currently plaguing their product
And tbere isnt even any broken desealing rods at the end of this š© show1
Seriously. One or twp days of armada grind is one thing but do we really have 6 days of these???
Yes, but it's not a grind unless you want it to be. There are many placings, and minimal effort can earn much of the reward.
or they could've designed it to be just as rewarding but more engaging and less grindy?
So what I am hearing is this a fine time to check out other games.
Shard drop rates SUCK for new event store.
A third day of frikkin Solo Armadas? Donāt any of your event designers have a clue about this game. ABSOLUTELY RIDUCULOUS!!!!
Armadas Are only giving 980 points, not 1k as described
How many of these armada events are they going to run for officers? Are things really that desperate since the Saudis took over?
@wanton copper @icy cairn please pass on this feedback, just when we thought this game canāt get any worse. Scopley decides to run armada events 3 days in a row without any directives sourcing? Please get the interns out of event planning as they have no clue about players and an absolute zero idea on how user or customer experience works.
oh it will run for 5 days, same thing over and over,
6 days
What is about the maths behind Scopely minds? 1000 pt are 1000 pt, not 980!
And 3 more will follow š¤£š¤£š¤£
You get at least solo directives from Borg refinery and bajoran faction + the box cds give also more directives for the solos
I redeemed my Supreme Choice token after completing the SMS event and decided to claim the Armada directives reward which states 1000 Epic and 600 rares guaranteed. Nope. Only 500 Epic with 300 Borg solo thrown in. Seriously. Wth
after 2 days of this i finally recalled my ships and thought my i will go and cut the lawn with nail cutters it has to be more interesting....... nope nothing to choose between the 2 activities
I have a question for @icy cairn and @wanton copper - Is it an official $copley Troll of you paying customers (the people who play your game) that you refuse to give any advance notice of Syndicate XP events despite being repeatedly asked to do so?
Iām sure there is a plan. But they have not figured out what the charge plan is yet.
My warship cargo bays are grayed out still for now over a day. Is this the repercussions of farming hostiles or is something stuck?
Apex Rogue event on Server 10 is a joke right now. Both Karppinen and Mige have been failing to spawn ANY armada targets for over a week, so the smaller and larger systems are all congested.
But you were given such nice Avatars at no cost
Can't believe the talking cat wanted to give a shout out to the developer for this crock of š©of an arc. A two day event at best
Too much grinding just lately ruining the game seen alot of talk of people considering ditching it
Iām aware of that, I burned through all my rares and epic solos for the supreme choice event. More than 30 rare solo madas and 8 epics
You sure you selected the right option? I got 1k epic and 600 rare reg directives. The solomada chest had what you are saying.
How it is possible to do your Stelle event. When the systems remain overcrowded??, even with the 3 new ones, it remains difficult, there just isn't enough space. Remove some of the lower levels and make many more 40+ zones
Please no more armada events as they just cause the bad lag to be terrible lag. Every Thursday we get a nice large dose of extra lag, but his week we also have the bonus of an all armada event to make it worse. Please consider that this makes players turn off the game in frustration when planning events.
If you are running a hostile hitting leader board, the cap on loot should be removed.
Ah the bait and switch.
A little warning that we can only do 2 pulls per day of an individual chest in the summer hunt event store would have been nice.
The limit is 6 pulls per day of a single exchange. You can get around this by pulling 3-2-3, but you should not hoard or you'll run out of time.
Armadas of armadas with zero directive sourcing and mega grinding that is unattainable with hostel limits and daily requirements itās just makes the game tedious so I am just going to shield and do something else Not fun anymore
When does the hostile limit refresh please?
~10 minutes
@zenith wing thanks
i really really REALLY dislike the afk autogrinding option... especially if you are in a levelbracket where some players have access to 5 docks while others are limited to 3
is it scopely policy to ALWAYS frustrate the players to a maximum?
just once a FAIR bracketing would be really NICE
Putting on a 7day shield and playing other games fixed all the lag and problems i had with events in this game. Try it it really works
Please make auto-attacking hostiles not count for any events. I hate that I have to do it to ensure my LB position
effort = reward?
what's the effort in putting any ship at the border of an augment system all day. it's dumb. it's exploiting mechanics, not playing the game.
for the forbidden tech event it only counted 1 instead of 4 even with forbidden tech equipped, so they can distinguish obviously
Maybe next time run an event that your servers and code can handle hmmm?
this game has become Farmadaville and is now the opposite of fun.
the first day of this event was cool. you don't need to milk it, that was plenty.
Thanks for the feedback. Since the ticket was closed with no chance to offer any feedback of my own I will let others decide the validity of the response. Reference the Proving ground; initiate event please let me know how players are meant to guess intentions when the in game news does not mention it, nor the events descriptions? Starting an armada before the event triggered would provide no way to not score other then throw away the directive. This is just incredibly short sighted answer. This seems either a trap or an excuse for bad implementation.
Not sure if this has been reported but there is a painful bug with the chat where short messages are not appearing for everybody. Happens a lot in busy times.
Ex: when posting just "in" - signaling you are joining an armada - sometimes does not appear for a large swat of the alliance players, and messages from the same player are often disappearing. With longer messages like "I am in the armada" the issue seems not to be triggered.
Very painful leading to loooong arguments with lots of screenshots in our alliance discord š¦
PLEASE get rid of the hostile cap, at least for this week turn it off or double and tripple it! here in europe prime time didn`t even start and most players already hit their cap and cannot start armadas without worrying about lost loot... YOU CAN NOT SELL ARMADAS THIS WAY!
Hostile cap doesnāt apply to armadas. Iām 100% behind you on removing the cap though. Not only during events. Get rid of it all together.
You expect scopely to let you win something in the game fair and square?
i expect them to at least care for their own sales
Well apparently they don't. Because whales don't have anyone to bully why will they spend any money? But hey, yhe idiots running the company know better.
stop it SCOPELY!! I have already emptied the solo armada directive š© I get tired every day with the armada š
@wanton copper @bek for the love of god stop with all the armada events.
Thank you, thank you for helping me walk away from this game. Which each arc, with each over priced money grabbing āthingyā you release, with the ridiculously obscene level of diminishing (coupled with insane convoluted grinds) returns past ops 39, (I am 49) you make it easier and easier to choose something else better to do, AND spend my money on. Well done š (these ridiculous drain armada start events just mean I get a day away, because I know damn well from experience, the rewards for the time invested are going to be pathetic. Yeah, YOU (scopy) will think they are gold, but they are going to actually suck, and all the time and resources spent by us will feel like a slap in the face. Hence why you arenāt posting any info on it)
Armada event has lost its fun. Itās been days of the same thing - if I see OMW anymore I might go blind.
Why don't the developers and the one's who approved this battlepass to go ahead thinking it's a terrific idea, go kick each other's heads in.... please. Or better yet have a podcast and explain how they didn't think this through.
so you guys seriously are not going to alternate this stupid ass event? just.. armadas 5 days in a row?
Come on now....
The Idiots guide to destroying a video game
I would suggest another location.
Are they getting us ready for Rare Formation Armadas next arc?
Seriously, canāt believe anyone wants this many armada events at all, let alone back to back.
it could have been so much better if they would just alternate the events according to the "ranks" instead of this
Why is everyone losing their mind over a series of SLBs ? You don't have to engage by doing solo armadas...you have the choice not to do them , go hit reds, or don't enter at all
Canāt make my mantis syndicate or borg pulls - cause you know, hostile limit. Great job guys, great job. That augment loot was way better!
Feedback
Proving grounds was a fine event for 2 days, but "too much of a good thing" gets old fast.
Event store needs fixing!! I have done full pulls of each reward 2 days now an not a single officer shard. When you say chance really itās No chance right
More armada events please.
A battle pass that's the same price as regular 4 week battle pass but it's only two weeks, nothing fancy to make it better and no battle pass overflow with extra officer shards, lat and broken rods. Bad scopely, bad scopely!
Ah! Scopely fails massively again, which is clearly due to the slow modus is active again
Six days of armada leaderboard is just lazy. Least they could do would be to not stick us with same old š© rng on officer shards from the summer hunt chests. Seriously scopely quit being so dam cheap.
I like the idea of this mini-pass. Just definitely needed more variety. SLB's we can have: Hostiles, PVP, Armadas, mining, ATA's, research power gained, heavy hitter, resources raided, iso mined/stolen... A week-long arc of various slb's could've been interesting, as everyone could find one or two they really preferred to push while min-placing on ones they don't.
@wanton copper @icy cairn Still getting solomadas failing to fire on server 32. Just lost 400 rare Dominion directives for no return. Counts to zero, and nothing happens. If you're going to have 5 days of armadas, kind of difficult to do them if they won't fire.
As long as armadas dont work properly, this event should be pulled and no other armada events should be started.
Ppl are loosing directives; a compensation chest for everyone isnt compensating those who lost directives in any way. Those players should he compensated for what they lost
Armadas having been working fine the past few days, but as of today they are going haywire. Out of 4 eclipse armadas triggered in the past few minutes only one actually managed to take place, the others just did nothing when the final countdown timer reached 0. I agree with the above sentiment, armada event should be pulled until they fix this. Nobody wants to waste time waiting an armadas only for nothing to occur.
Or directives, especially rare and epic.
Loving that Jellyfish event as well⦠is it common for them to host events that can only be done with a bought ship for 60�
What a dull and boring event... 6 days in a row the same armadas grinding and auto fighting to score within top 50 ranks of the leaderboard. Absolutely the worst event ever!
Just plain laziness of scopely
so we get 6 days of broken events, only getting acknowledged today with a micro-comp (yet to be delivered). I congratulate the mid-arc runner for trying something different, and infact it 'could be great', if there was a small stack of armada starts to kick everyone off at the beginning, and an actual comp for those of us who lost solo directives instead of force closing tickets with no response. Give this mid-arc runner a full arc please, he/she might actually do a great job without the limitation of 1 or 2 weeks.
Cashed in the Summer Hunt Hirogen Bounty Credits four times on the event store and none of them getting me any of the officer shards 
Armadas not scoring properly in Summer hunt event!š¤¬
So the Great Chase SMS is basically unfinishable if you are under level 35 and can't do Solos?
Adding myself to the list of players whose armadas are disappearing. Two borg solos gone
Basically, yes. However as a lvl33, i can do borg solo armadas. Well, if armadas werent totally bugged atm..
thanks for confirming @coral bane and yeah i meant 35 as a general ops number
@icy cairn looks like you better hand out everybody more directives for all the ones theyāre losing for armadas not firing just taking the directives
so, while I am glad Scopely is finally acknowledging a lag/armadas-broken issue, I cant for the life of me understand how they were not aware of this kind of issue since I personally have been complaining about this for close to 6 months here in this discord server... The Apex events in particular always showed this kind of problem, and unfortunately CS seems like they were told a while ago not to help people that had armada creation problems because "that problem won't ever happen again".... and sadly we are here at the same kind of issues 6 months later, but again, at least this time scopely finally acknowledges the problem.....
However.... the comp gift you gave us, wasnt anywhere near what is needed since the problem you are comping us have been going on for 6+ months and we lose directives by creating armadas that:
- just dont follow through on attacking the target
- aren't visible to the players trying to join
- allow you to start an armada that was already destroyed
- etc
again, I hope the these facts and the duration of your games bugginess centering around armada creation bugs deals with more than a simple give them some uncommon directives to make them feel appreciated...
and instead give us LOTS of RARE and EPIC directives too because we as players lost those directives as well, and have been losing them for MONTHS.
Please and thank You,
Krap
OR... hear me out... they could sit down and fix their game.
Will never happen. When the community manager over a year ago endorsed the pushing out broken content for the sake of having new content everyone should have taken that to heart and understood that was the most stable theyād ever see the game again.
to be completely fair... this is an overall trend in the software industry... fixing bugs doesnt keep or attract new customers... new content does... and its usually about an 80/20 rule on "new content"/"fixing bugs" from a developer's time perspective.
sadly... it takes a lot longer to fix bugs in most cases unless its PAINFULLY obvious how to fix an issue... and then there are still regression testing issues that need to be accounted for , and I would argue that the Q.A. here is less than adequate. š¦
The whole game needs a full overhaul rehash a couple of the old arcs for a couple months and focus on stabilizing the game
Players: we don't feel like doing any more Armada events. Scopely: we only do Armada events for a week, they design so badly and build in as many mistakes as possible - the players have to realise that we know better what they want....
It is what it has always been: The users vote with their wallet. As long as people keep buying and the cash flow is ok, they won't change a thing. And at this point I assume that once this stops, they won't change either, but rather move on to the next product and do the same thing over again.
Still not getting Armada points or rewards
Smart players have stopped doing armadas, period, until they see confirmation that the issue has been addressed.
Since nothing is going well at the moment and all the players feel screwed - rightly so - I assume that little will happen in the shop either. In my alliance, everyone is keeping a very low profile.
Because they're not making the officers available in other ways, smart guy.
I present you aramada event, with a 65% chance of successfully scoring .... FAILURE
Why not also give the rewards people are missing out on because of the broken armadas?
Youāre assuming theyāll track that per account? Lols. Thatās a lot of faith put in a group thatās proven they deserve very very little of it.
Because THAT would be the intelligent, generous, wise thing to do to customers. Scopy doesnāt see us as customers, they see us as āmarksā. You donāt treat marks with respect.
Hey. How the heck am I supposed to finish the Battlepass without any BP Events?
And here I was thinking I might just get enough solo armadas to finish the summer event. But that was back when they still spawned š
Threat Reduction is Battlepass event.... See the logo?
Threat reduction is bp event. Go hit swarms or Borg probes š maybe no problems with that scoring š
The usual limit banners have been forgotten. I don't know why an event store would have a tiny limit (2 full claims daily) but if so then I think it should be shown. It's not uncommon to wait until the end to see what you earn, I think they'll be lots of unhappy people if it doesn't get changed š
They are just giving out directives to everyone.... I'm saying to give out the rewards to everyone too.
As of now on my relatively new server theres a total of 33 ppl on the veteran slb. Keeping one ship on autofarm is just about enough to stay in top 10. At least that part is low effort thanks to low participation, and the trait xp is nice. But you would both have to love the grind and be a whale (to get armada directives) and be high ops to finish that insane great chase
Iām so glad armadas are broken š¤£š¤£š¤£ Run more week long armada events, I challenge youš
I actually like this Armada event, it requires a certain level of strategy to plan out your spends if you intend to score in each event, rather than just simply throwing everything into one day mindlessly. I know I'm in the minority here, but Im enjoying something like this outside of the normal routine of thinking.
if I could see any solo armadas I might like the event, but I'm not able to finish my SMS because solo armadas don't exist
Armada event: but let's break all the systems that have solo armadas. No borg or jemHadar solo Armadas are re-spawning. Server 34
when are we gonna use these?
They hope you forget about thoseā¦
why?
You know there will be hundreds of people who even when that store comes around wonāt spend them in hopes of better rewards from them ālaterā
My alliance defeated epic armada for ascension event. Armada defeated, but nothing happen. No battle report inbox. Pls help, need the prize ...
Because I bet THEY have no clue what they are doing with them š
So Scopely's bringing the mostly pretty good Voyager arc to a close with the same painfully repetitive and boring event every single day and then broke it.
https://tenor.com/view/letter-kenny-nice-execution-gif-10941076
I believe in the last part of the Voyager arc.
5 lat says they will be forgotton or be worth nothing.
UC solo borg madas and dominion madas broken and not spawning on server 41!
Hi, I am on server 93 and some folks have gotten a chest for the hunt issues but I haven't, I'm level 25 so I should be be getting one. Any info would be appreciated.
The compensation is rolling out just be patient š
Actually a decent comp chest, so appreciate that... but I feel like it'd be better to wait until official word before trying to use said directives yet.
Let someone else go first haha!
Looks like the klingon burial ships are not spawning on 90...
The comp chest is decent, but there are going to be a bunch of people who are going to struggle to finish the SMS because they've lost at least a day to work on it. I have a feeling they are going to be SOL
Thanks I just got it, And I agree with Occams, it is a very nice chest.
looks like nothing is respawning
Server 56 nothing respawned...I would say they got it fixed lol...
The comp chest is very good but how are we meant to use them? I have zero armadas in my game in any system
Pretend...it's a new mechanic...just imagine
@bek @wanton copper thank you for the chest. Server 29 is also having solo armadas spawn very slowly.
S32 here, solomadas either not respawning or respawning like 100x slower. Group madas seem to be okay, though.
thank you for the compensation chest. server 187 is still not respawning borg solo armadas in the level 35 systems
Suggest if summer hunt runs next year to rename event to 'Groundhog Day'
Thanks for the comp chest, now everyone has rare solo directives, please turn up the respawn rate. Thankyouš
Bounty hunters need prey but instead itās staring at empty systems. I give up for today.
did they turn off armada respawns as a compensation during an armada event? š eclipse empty, cardi empty, klingon burial systems empty, etc.
Same on #168, armada respawn is virtually zero, how can we complete an event when there is no target to score with? Been sat in Bajoran space watching the same 5 hostiles floating aimlessly š
Yep. Another Armada Event fail. #159 nothing spawning in Hyra.
@icy cairn @wanton copper Armadas are not respawning on 137. All systems are are empty.
Where are the officers in the summer hunt event store? I might have gotten one ourt of about 12 chests so far. Useless
