Some players have it other don't - Scopley strikes again
Really bad synergy this month, so far we have had syndicate events running on different day, an apex battlepass running the day after apex thursday and now a mining battlepass the day after mining monday.
Missing events today on S40
I have these event in Friends in High Places Events
It's in Friends in High Places and more underwhelming than you'd expect
At least you have it.
I like to know how I can even finish this event with out spending money.
I donāt have it at allā¦in any tab. I had held off doing certain things in preparation for this.
try you restart game
It's in Friends in High Places and the SMS is waaaaaay lower than expected
I did close the app and restarted. Hailing frequencies still scored in Friends or Foes starting shortly before new events today. Hailing frequencies quickly completed Buffer Time.
Not there
You get a daily pull of syndicate xp straight up, and you can get syndicate xp in daily cheats with free research, plus the mantis refinery has syndicate xp. Even if you have only the daily syndicate you should be able to finish it in the 7 days it runs.
Yep, missing the Inside Information - SMS as well. All of my alliance is between 30-60 and some have it, some don't. I tried to collect my Syndicate XP to see if it would still register although I didn't have the event showing, but no go. This was after restarting/repairing.
Any other Syndicate lvl 35, point this high?
Hereās mine (yours is beyond a ripoff. I thought the rewards were dumb for meā¦yours is downright insulting. I am ops 53, syndicate lvl 27, if that does anything š¤·āāļø)
I'm on US server 28 and don't have this event listed.
@wanton copper is the feedback in this channel read?
This is feedback. This is the current state of the game.
2800 lvl 35
Who doesnāt have these officers maxed at this point? With all the new officers this is just š© on your part Scopely
Didnāt score despite claiming 500 syndicate xp
Here's some feedback.... We hate territory takeovers and defences, have hated it for ever.... Forced gameplay does not work
Haha this is supports response to why it takes me 33.6K vs the other Ops 60/Syn35+ players on my server only needing 8400
read to know instead
pretty idiot ROE if it protects miners not on a node š u cant kill em while raiding either ?
Maybe you've spent more than them and are more likely to spend to complete. Its scopely, so not unlikely.
It is becuase I have the Prime, they got to 35 before it was released and up until recently no need for it. It is what it is....I still think the segmentation is a bit off, but whatever
as a f2p, i find those variable milestones and other stuff pretty rediculous. Just because you got a prime to make something easier/faster doesnt mean that an even should get automatically harder.
One reason why i dont trust scopely RNG.
For the FC Recruits for example, its a 50/50 chance between Spock and Kirk, but for weeks you get the one you already have, mathematically impossible
Players new in the last year? Itās about it.
All scopy rng is weighted. They are a deceitful and duplicitous company.
@marble sierra lots of servers have roe written to say if base is getting raided then the miners and ships from that alliance can be attacked classified a warzone
well some add "pvp systems to it as well " makes the mining FT parties a thing of the past
That is different then, we just have token systems protected even if overloaded and data and concentrated latinum if using a different miner than BB or freesha it needs the correct mining officer for that type of resource otherwise open to attack
The daily syndicate chest everyone can pull. Depending on your Syndicate level, easily completable in 7 days.
Away team mission. Chance of success. 97%. Fails 5x in a row since time boosts are the reward⦠completely coincidental.
50+% chance of critical success, never happens. 1% chance of failure, fails every time. ATAs are complete and total BS.
The ATA RNG has usually seemed the most reasonable of the ones in the game, but I've made had decent luck. Like low orbit flyby maxes out the crit at 40%, but with a maxed pilot seems to crit decently often.
Although I find it silly that the stats bonuses apply only on ships, ATA doesn't seem to give the officers the stats bonuses...
Stats bonus from ships not applying to AT missions makes perfect sense ... you aren't on a ship and therefore don't have all of the addition resources and protection a ship has to offer. AND ... if you were to assign them a ship then that ship and drydock would also be tied up too for up to 3d (no think you)
Neither research research nor building bonuses say "stats bonus on ship" the modifiers are to the officers stats, not as a part of them being assigned to a ship. Granted there are some that do only apply to bridge crew, although oddly those are in the Away Team research
The bigger thing it means that as long as the officers are the same level they provide the same value no matter if 2 players are 20 ops levels apart...granted moving the needle for a player 20 ops levels later requires gaining a lot more resources.
7 day long Syndicate XP event. Highest milestone can be achieved literally with one pull. Why exactly?
Syndicate event is super easy. 400 daily, 500 from daily chest(bajoran), 1600 from bajoran store
Can you do tc battlepass events that small alliances that don't own territory can do? Small alliances that don't fit in to territory can't keep joining tc battles perpetually
Gotta agree with this. Smaller alliances do not have the territory rss reserves larger alliances do (I'm in a top 10 alliance on my server with nearly 100mil of the basic rss needed to join, but we've always had zones. I imagine much smaller alliances have nowhere near this.)
Considering the cost to join 1* zones all day, even just for that day, would be a significant drain and they will run out long before the bigger alliances will.
Imo, this arc's events have had no forethought put into them.
@upbeat ferry no officer not recent is good...its FOMO baby
Math is hard, eh? 400 daily (just from syndicate ftp) x 7 days = 2800 pts
What you can get syndicate from the bajor store? Whereeeeee
Slight typo, you get the 500 from chest from getting bajoran prophecy gift and the 1600 is from refining in Mantis tab. Was super happy when they were unlocked š
you forgot the ferengi FT that magically appears and disappears in the store when you want to buy
That one i aint bother that doesnt chance if the game is playable or not
This maintenance event, is it part of the lower decks arc? If so, I'd suggest not having an event like this again... doesn't seem to be working (like everything else)
You can get sindicate points in the mantis refinary, apparently you don't play the game...
Soooooooooooo thanks to all this extra maintenance cant finish the dominion event today before resetā¦we gettin compensated?
You got extra maint. What more do you want?
ā¦..a compensation chest and 1 million dollarsā¦.and Scopely to admit they are really not good at this whole āgame upkeepā thing
Hereās 5 multiphasics and a Mbenga shard
Well i guess thats better than the usual Burnham shard
The underlying point of this all is to force those 10-30 man alliances with multiple dead accounts to start condensing down into fewer alliances with more active people.
Apparently you don't read the messages. Was corrected a few minutes later š«£
If they are gonna move battle pass events to battle passes maybe they should move the following event there also
š„GIFT! š“ š„GIFT! š“ š„ GIFT!š“ š¤£
Mābenga shards
What is this global pvp event?? Why is this not limited to a specific system?
Having the Friend or Foe ALB be all in the same systems regardless of level does make for more excitement in there, but for the upper levels it's more or less impossible to accomplish much. A 46 being able to hit ships all the way down to 30, for example, means there's a lot of people who can't spend a lot of time in there. Or they can get chased a bunch, which makes it a little difficult to be sending a HF every 30 seconds...
lmao @ "...but no worries!"
What's the 3 day event " retrieving"?
<@&509691205798592532> So do we have an unrestricted PvP event today?
Because chaos sells packs
i remember in the past the timing was perfect for hopping in and out of the systems.
i'd send my ships into the system, HF, recall, cancel immediately after they go to warp, and redo.
the timer reset just as the ships started returning to the pvp system, reducing the risk.
They really need to separate out the HF and PVP systems.
it's deliberate.
if they do just pvp nobody shows up.
add in hostiles, mining, or hailing frequencies and the low levels show up to steal points and feed the whales.
Oh, I know. But watching 50s blow up 33s just trying to score with HFs because the 50s only punch down to show how manly they are gets old after a while. But I guess Scopely has to give the suckers who keep shelling out thousands someone to kick around.
Whatās is the retrieving event and how do we score?
If you mean this one, I have the same question...I'm guessing a Fleet Commander event
I have had seven relocations pulls and got Garak 7 times. The odds are ridiculous
Yes it is. Mine still isn't showing, but we scored using that.
Is the Violence with Violence - SMS limited to a specific system? Or did Scopely make it server-wide?
FC skill xp spend to score?
Unrestricted
I pulled six chests and got zero officers. What a great reward and officer sourcing optionā¦not
Getting an officer that I don't need seven times is the same as nothing.
āRetrievingā issue with one of the events.
Relocation pull?
Sorry spellcheck replicator
I am IOS, there is no longer any way for me to send in a help ticket. It has been like this for months. I have investigated every avenue. Or so I think
Zero shards of any kinda on my last 4 replicator pulls...and for the first time...ever? No shards on my Cerritos refinery pull...
I used to think that there was no event that players would hate more than Incursions until the TC trailblazer event. Players feel forced, smaller alliances do not have enough ISO1, whales grab and drop territories for points at will leaving them unavailable, and because of the aforementioned lack of ISO 1 even if a smaller group managed to get a territory, it can't afford to activate any services. Essentially ruining the value of having territory at all. If they quadrupled the points earned, it might work but right now staying 30 seconds in a territory with whales engaging is a challenge.
This territory event is ssdd. Itās at the point now that nobody fights. Biggest alliance sits the nodes, smaller ones float for points. Scopely you HAVE to change the rules for territory. Reinstate pvp banding to introduce even a small amount of strategy (currently itās king of the hill exclusively). Allow alliances to join as āAlliesā and score points on behalf of a āContestingā alliance at a reduced rate. Everyone here says itās too expensive to join so make it cheaper. Simple things to try and resuscitate a dead boring event.
This is basically RNG scoring
Haven't seen server 86 this dead in months. Due to the PVP event IMHO. Scopely - you f'd it up again.
Nooo, itās pay to score. They expect you to buy the FC for those points.
That and experience and building materials make those shard points meaningless
@spare coyote wait till all 11 of your allies join a 3* and just sit around and do nothing
Anyone else missing para Bellum?
Aye nothing here
@wanton copper where is my para bellum
There isn't a single eclipse armada showing on S28
Heroic - Armada Commander - SMS...rare and epic solos count towards this?
Nice to add this event for officers Scopely have made almost useless and for a higher cost than a officer that was useful.
Solos not counting makes it even worse
Nope
awesome armada event for several packs worth of starts you can earn an outdated officer ,great job scopely!
I want my Para Bellum!!! š
Don't participate, I have enough to finish the event, if the timers were working, but this month as been terrible.
...and it showed up finally
yeah its rediculous, even if you have enough Directives to finish it you will never know if you will find enough armadas.
Directives are hard to get, you dont want to spam them just on any epic
please make the event more clear as in what Armadas count for this event spending directives all morning and then finding out after they did not count is a real kick in the guts thanks for nothing scopely as always
the idea of having allies score for you is a nice idea on paper, in practice though it just leads to system lockouts which are bad enough as is, we do not need to encourage it.
Right now territories reach steady state when top 5 stop moving around. This idea is intended to add another possible element of strategy to TC. Currently the only strategy possible is $ due to the rules Scopely has implemented. Imagine the $ alliances having to actually care about diplomacy to prevent 10 angry smaller alliances from banding together to overwhelm with ship points without holding a single capture node.
well, those 10 angry small alliances can also keep out 20 angry smaller alliances, so...
Exactly, diplomacy becomes part of the strategy
Well, maybe. Truth is the top 5 pretty much sit and don't move.
I had hopes for this arc, but guess what? Retaking the territories and sitting and not moving.
Maybe the next arc. I'm not really that impressed with this arc.
What I like about most things in the game is that you can be done with it and move on.
Territories is just a way to screw over the smaller alliances, and with alliance reputation, merges cost more.
I think either Scopely doesn't get it, or they completely do.
(Slow mode engaged? Really?)
Your last comment, Scopely knows or doesnāt. They definitely have to know. They just donāt do anything about it and thereās only one rea$on why.
- The one event everyone praised last month was the heroic armada event. Removing solos from it's scoring is terrible. 2) The officers offered are now obsolete because the Freeman-Lorca-HG Worf Crew steam rolls them and there is no sourcing for Freeman ingame.
This probably won't do anything to change the way scopely operates but I figured I'd try leaving feedback instead of just saying nothing.
Hold your horses, not everyone bought Freeman. As someone who hasnt and was working towards the Vor'Cha, it still has good value to me
Are we going to get another missions that rewards these or was this a fake-out?
Itās Scopely, they have no such thing as communication to players, so ride the FOMO train and buy packs
I've given my feedback. If you find value in the officers by all means go for them. You can not convince me they have value when a G3 player running the freeman crew obliterates multiple G4 ships with striketeams because he spent $20.
I'm assuming we're going to be stuck with no way to use those unless you were someone that purchased the tokens to finish out enough to unlock T'Ana...cause why give us a way to use the tokens that now litter our inventory
Vorcha with bst gonna get dunked on by virtually any ship with freeman on it
nothing new honestly, thats basically my F2P life nowadays in any ship
Not scoring despite spending rare and epic armadas. All it says is to spend rare and epic armadas says nothing on type
Whenever it doesnāt specify a type that always means original directives only.
Also understand itās a steep exchange for obsolete officer shards, and coming on the heels of three events in three-ish weeks that encouraged heavy use of rare and epic directives.
I like how they think people just have 6200 rare directives lying around
No, they expect people to buy 1-2 armada packs. The event isnāt there for any other reason.
This payout for officers is not fun @wanton copper. I guess props for posting the awful chances
Curious if there is going to be any chance to earn more of the Dr. T'Ana tokens within events? I spent ~6k 3*uncommon materials and maxed out the event last weekend, pulled all my chests and got 4000 of 4800 required to open the full unlock. In other word - I got nothing - unless there is another chance. Really should have been e.g. 1200 tokens to buy 25 shards etc.
I am in the same boat and it SUCKS - saved and spent ~6k 3*uncommon materials that weekend and basically got nothing from the event
I hate to tell you, that was the planā¦ā¦
Itās called a FOMO pit.
You donāt read things first, dump all your effort into an event and are designed to come up short, and thereās a convenient payment right there at the end waiting for you so you can have that time/effort become something.
And if you donāt make the purchase, itās possibly and probably all for nothing.
That being said. I am saving my pittance in caseā¦..
Nah - you got screwed - have to buy the rest of the tokens.
What a shame... SCOPELY wants to suck money and not scoring with solo armada⦠Shame on you scopely!!
It's like they took all the positive things praised from the Voyager arcs (full unlock for heroic recruit events, can double down for more tiers without needing to go ham on slb and compete with whales, heroic mada events using any directive types, Voyager ship actually being a pretty decent g4 and can be earned entirely f2p, artifacts being fairly useful and not overly difficult to get) and just pooped all over it and threw it out in favor of whatever disaster this arc has been. At least I can say that any money I have spent outside of the usual $20 BP has gone to a couple of things not arc-related. My stance is: if the arc is trash, I refuse to buy anything that shows I support it.
where did this just come from?
why wasn't it available last night?
Came at event reset for me, the armada one was delayed by like 12m though.
didn't appear for me at least in the few hours after reset when i did my events, and also didn't count the kronos heavies i killed to go through the pakled event.
can you add other source to make points in the replicator goods slb.. so many of us have same points
Yeah, I figured. At the same time, I was going to spend all those materials upgrading my station and ship anyway, not like I have lost out on anything, just didn't get anything nice as an extra. It's also a stark and poor contrast to the last couple of "spend G3 3*U" events where I unlocked Chakotay, 7of9, maybe some others
This type of scoring/placement is BS. Give us a way to differentiate or split the the total rewards for all the tied places evenly. Randomly placing people with the same score is utterly unfair.
Wrong events. This is not the Voyager Arc @wanton copper
Been like this since the beginning, alway be the last to score the points
trash ticketed events...
I joined two of the ticket events before I realized it wasn't Freeman. Now they're gone from the TE bucket so I can't even get the garbage rewards I burned tickets for.
2 of 3 Ticketed events disappeared
Hey now, I paid tickets for these, and they all disappear?
I'm guessing they got yanked because they were wrong. They better give the tickets back though
Events are back and seems like it kept the state (purchased, if you had bought in)
Disappeared, reappeared, nothing changed.. 2 giving a Harry Kim blueprint. 1 giving Tom Paris
Ticketed events backā¦
š« but no credit for mining already done
Thanks for all the folders scopely - I missed an event yesterday on the Admiral SMS. It's damn near impossible to figure out where everythign is anymore. This makes it a real challenge to engage in this game - even when you want to.
Yāall need to run this event everyday if youāre going be this cheap or the rewards. Subspace relay building buffs suck. Why are these relay tokens so coveted?
Does BORG, Exchange, other armada work for current armada event?
i heard reading event description works for scoring
Canāt fleece you of money if they gave stuff away
Totally agree!
Ughā¦canāt find a Klingon armada to save my life. Respawn busted?
its not random mate, it works like this: last person to score becomes top of the list. This rule holds true if you are F2P. If you are a spender you adhere to this rule: highest spend (lifetime) will appear at the bottom of the ranking, least spend at the top. The whale rule is subservant to the F2P rule, so that given a whale scores after a f2p, the f2p will still remain at the top. This is to promote spending, as scopely know if you spent a lot, you got the money to buy your way up the ranks. so expect all tied rankings to look like this: R1 last F2P player to score, R10 first F2P player to score, R11 least spending P2P, R20 biggest P2P whale (in a 20 rank tied slb)
Any word on armada spawn fixes? There are 3 armada events in tandum today but no spawns
Once again (replicator goods) scopley has an event with limited variation of spending, and so there's currently a 5way tie for 2nd. š¤¦āāļø
is that a joke?
Scopley has to stop this limited variation scoring events. When you tie but get worse rewards for random or arbitrary reasons. (Hope they wonder why almost no one spent on this, the risk was too low for lame rewards)
Materials spent arenāt scoring š”
@wanton copper S28 is still without Rare and Epic Eclipse, Solo, and Cardassian Armadas. Is this being addressed. Been almost 4 days
no joke,ah i mis-read see below reply
actually that's not the point, the point is i was one first position and i just got the second place reward because place 1 and 2 has equal points....
scroll up mate, i told you how they determine who ranks highest 3 or 4 posts above yours
Dear Scopely,
Stop making all the SLBs spend events. Or ya know, keep it up, whatever. Gotta get that $$. Less of a reason for me to keep playing, I suppose.
I can guarantee this next Incursions is going to be a rage-fest with the lack of working notifications + Station Delay. Good job pandering to the whiny whales, Scopley. How dare we use actual thought and strategy to defend our bases from those that spend their life and money making everyone as miserable as they are. Need I remind you Station Delay only works in one direction? Because you still won't see any whales one-shotting other whales with this. Maybe focus more on adding things that allow punching up instead of down? Might encourage more spending if people have a better chance defending against 60+...
@wanton copper When is the email supposed to come for the First Contact Sweepstakes winners?
I have the same problem as you..I opened a ticket lol
Scheduled for this weekend, but I'd give it til monday.
Why does have an event cracked numbers as milestones, whil you can't score them?
When I start two epics, I will have 1080 points left for the next milestone.
How can you archive them? You can't! Wow!
so that you have wasted extra. its the same reason you have hundred diffrent currency. makes people want to buy pack to feel like they didnt waste points.
Thatās the point
minig event yesterday, today and tomorrow. Ok but if you need, somebody needs one idea where the West begins...read, ask, offer us one beer to confess our darkest suggestions
scoring is done in such a way to make sure you cannot 'land' on a few milestones, preying on ocd
Scopely, Iām sure that in your mind, thereās legitimate reasons for the way the Heroic Armada Commander SMS was designed. But to your players, it comes across as a straight up troll-job, plain and simple. Between the not counting Solos and the fractional milestones that can leave a player less than 100 pts short of the next milestone, this is not an extra challenge, this is just unnecessary aggravation šš
Random-kill Event has backstory?
Easier just to not do it
First time I read it, but the event makes now
Is there a glitch with getting the corrupted data pads for the invaluable asset mission? There is no route to the fourth data pad.
It's an older issue, but probably still bugged. I'd contact CS about it. #š½-how-to-contact-support
Yes it's bugged
What the? This c-lat event requires mining 5.68 million in 24 hours?
So scopely screws up the officers on 3 ticketed events, but only gives us enough tickets to do 1 of the 3 make-up events. Way to screw us again.
@queen kindle Can someone look into the ridiculous objective on the gold rush event?
These milestones are horrible unless you bought the Feesha FT, itās over 12 hours of mining clat nonstop
@wanton copper @icy cairn if you all plan on making most events pay to play or spend half the day trying, please let me know so I won't waste my time in this anymore. I have stopped spending money until you fix the prime station delay and iso officers. This is unacceptable and another month with a F score.
wow they leaned in hard to the p2w ferengi whip - crazy final milestone in the gold rush event - in a 24 hour event do they expect us not to sleep? they want 6M concentrated latinium mined in that time? Scopely's greed and / or incompetence (not sure which is worse) shining through nice and a clear for all to see
Gold Rush is over 14h mining. Absurd.
Why refining protomatter to emblem doesnt score in spending?
Mine has 332mil, I WISH it was just 5.62 mil š
Hey Scopely, you forgot to add heroic to this event š¤£
seriously? I've got to kill ~100 cardassians for this one milestone, whoever does the maths at scopely should probs take some night classes, it's Monday guys nobody who works for a living has time for this
That number is the amount of c-lat not the points. Mine is 268. I didn't realize it was 1/4 of a $99 pack worth of tokens. Should say heroic so I would just ignore it.
I needed only 3 for cardassian. They got that one right
1/4 of a terrible payout $99 pack worth of tokens*
Not if you're higher ops, at ops 49, I had to kill 24 49-51 cardassians as you can't get any higher hostiles then that
They forgot to say āPay to Win - just buy the whip!ā
I honestly donāt see how eco and bek can show their faces on here. I mean, I would be embarrassed as all get out to have my name associated with the nonsense scopy has been doing for the last year, six months especially. š¤Ø
no no, that was deliberate
I think they know exactly what theyāre doing⦠all you have to do is buy that little $50 pack over thereā¦
Sorry, but I have enough to pay to support my family at home, can't pay for every event in a game aswell
Scopely forgot to mark this event like heroic. It's a total nonsense such big milestones
Gold Rush event is so outrageously designed into force us the whip itās sad.
even if it were accurate, not enough nodes in game to support the number of players having to do that much c-lat mining
They are forcing us the whip up our throats. Imagine forcing a community into spending if they want to complete a single, low rewarding event.
Yeah, when some of us where complaining about scopy price points, so many folks were all, itās a business. I wonder if folks are starting to see that it is really a scam? They have more psychologists on staff than professional programmers, and it is showing with every arc they put out.
Fast track into killing the game. Let the whales play alone in a 100 people server
NOPE NOPE NOPE ....
I would be okay with that. THEY wouldnāt, but then, thatās not why they play lol. (Rich and powerful are not about a level playing field in any sense of the word)
The whip is not even offered to lvl36s and we have this crazy 260mil point requirement ...
500h of lat minin in 24h ... yeah ...
SS available of your mining event?
Relax, it is just a video game.
Telling people to "relax, it's just a video game" is 100% against Scopely's business model. They prey on people with FOMO issues or the dysfunctionally competitive to drive spending.
Are U out of your mind??? My Feesha is 100% maxed for my ops level but it needs to mine for more than 12 h to finish Gold Rush! š” What about your announced balance? You care about our RL at ALL???
this is just our community manager show again they are fully useless as such events only for p2w continue more and more
but give incursion that no skill whales can faster up ruin game for normal players
To be fair, they barely show their faces. This game has almost 0 communication from the so called community managers.
I have nothing against p2p events if we also had f2p events. Lack of meaningfull events doesnt give any reason to play this.
I know there are a lot of complaints about this event. I think I have a compromise. If Scopely runs this event multiple times over multiple days so FTP can get one pull while whip-buyers can get multiple pulls, I think that makes everyone happy. You can appreciate FTP players grinding their butts off to get to the second to last milestone, and then not able to redeem that currency for anything being very frustrating, I hope.
yeah, the amount is just insane... especially for a Lat Monday.
My maxed lvl 60 Feesha can mine ~1M concentrated Latinum with the optimized Ferengi Crew in Tarna (lvl 55), thats the highest CLat system with the fastest nodes..
That means I need to mine over 7 hours ! to reach the top milestone....
WHO THE HECK CALCULATES THE MILESTONES ?
Gold Rush is straight garbage. There is no way I can work my 12 hours day, get kid time, and finish this event. I can't even get the whip to bs my way through this. <@&509690795536941056>
impossible to finish my math says 92 hours lol
Gold Rush is unrealistic. The amounts needed to complete the event are ridiculous. Fix it or extend the time frame the event runs.
I calculated 57 hours to complete gold rush with 22 hours to go lol, this has to be some kind of out of season April fools joke
It would be nice if I had to mine as little as you do. Furthermore, there is a technology that extremely accelerates clat mining. you can consider whether to buy it or as I say: not in these lives
The rewards on this need massive buffing and also the number of folks getting rewards is super underwhelming
12.3h nonstop mining with T10 Feesha, assuming you can find free node, not accounting for warp times and if noone attack you. This event is pure garbage.
The Gold Rush event is more than rediculous!!!!! Plus no whip in any store on any device. Scopley really screwed this one up. It is simply for the whales. No way I am particpating.
10x the mining amount of the regular (and at this point very underwhelming) latinum rush? Uh, no. I'm good, thanks.
Gold rush is a joke .. most of us are not participating ....another useless stuff from scopley
alternatively they could add more clat systems. š¤£
Thx for the new p2p Event, or AS Others say thanks for nothing
Don't know why scopely even bothers with a dc. At this point its quite clear they don't listen to or care about anything the player base has to say
all you crying bout mining event, it's crazy easy. Involves no effort. Send out feeshas and dvor, collect every 30 minutes to an hour and you'll crush the requirement x2
Dvor gets you nowhere, I need 279m points to finish. A reset is about 18m points every hour. Math that up....ill wait (actually I'll make it quick about 18 hours). And good luck finding a single mine
I need about 17 hours to finish it. If I dont go to work or sleep, ill make it! Scopely strikes again.
Dvor gets you 3m points an hour, feesha gets you 8m an hour and arrock on a miner gets you 5m an hour. At ops 39 my sms is 260m and I have 2 feesha and 2 dvor and a faction miner with arrock. 29m an hour at ops 39. If you don't have at least 2 feesha and arrock at your level for 279m points, then rushed and that's on you
That's some strong copium you're huffing mousie. Where can I find some of that?
Remember when scopley claimed they heard the player and said they wouldnāt lower the grind š
Just reviewed this and I see a pull costs 250, not 500. I have no issues with this event. ššš
Nothing against events where you need to load something, but for the Gold rush sms event I need 12H and I don't have that, because I can't at work even if I wanted to, the other option is that I wouldn't go to sleep and fly with the miner and mine. It was supposed to be for two days or less quantity to fulfill. I can't upgrade the feesh and the yard, I don't have the raw materials. I won't pay for a package if you can't fix the bugs that I saw maybe last year.
We have a bully alliance on our server who declared war on our alliance. And because smaller alliances have no courage and follow blindly, we have 4 alliances we are fighting.
Scopley is the worst at some events.
Just tell your coworkers that you've have diarrhea and excuse yourself every 20 minutes to the bathroom and manage your feesha
Except if you are in a server war or on a server with no miner ROE protection on mining monday ... or both š¤£
To finish the last mining SMS you need to buy the feeenghi whip for $50⦠no other way to finish the event unless you have 2-3 maxed feesha for your level or the Breen skin
Dont forget we also have a hostile killing event where there are only level 50 and 51 hostiles in one system for the entire server.
Indeed!!! I only need to do that with my 4 lat mining ships for a⦠let me do the math⦠8.5h nonstop!!!
Lat Rush SMSā¦ā¦ Reallyā¦. Are you taking the Pee Pee! š¤¦āāļøš¤Øš¤·āāļø
If you're at war... That's not scopeys problem.
sms are not suppose to be pay to win. i would need to mine 5,500,000 concentrated lat. that is not doable even though i have 2 devor fresha.
We also need something to use these stupid amounts of mined lat
9 hours or 18 click return and send back out. Omg so hard
itās expecting too much from players. amount should be reduced to 2 mil latā¦at most
It's an incresinly easy sms to reach on a day you're already mining. The crybaby response from people on this is rediculous. The focus should be on solo armada not spawning not this incredibly achievable sms from anyone didn't rush their ops
i would tell you to get a life, but clearly u believe people should spend 9 hours on a poorly programmed phone game counts as having a life.
You don't make any sense. Just because is a 18 click, it's not 18 click on my leisure. It's 18 click that can only be done every 0.5h. This means that in 24h, I sleep 8h, remaining 16h, I work 8h, remaining 8h. Surprise: even if I spent all my free time every half hour, I WOULDNT MAKE IT
increasingly easy?? Good math that
I'm 5 hours, at 130m points of my 260. I've spent factual more time responding to you on here then looking at my phone recalling and sending back out. You guys are acting like you need a warship out grinding. Like seriously miners are set and forget it. On a day like today, its set and come back every 30-45 minutes and reset
a phone game should not take up 5 hours. its a phone game. 2 hours tops. most of us have jobs.
I have a job too, and i'm sure you check text messages and everything else while working, If you're picking a fight over a set it and forget mining and trying to paint a picture that it requires active attention is rediculous.
I petition to rename the event "gold rush" to "whip lush". make is so.....
- the whip isnt for sale anywhere right now. 2) it's completely doable without the whip. And 3) it is a rush to mine as much lat as possible during mining monday. The event make sense
hahah - funny. I know its doable. I will finish with 2 feeshas. Its a bit heroic and a bit dramatic. Very few players want events that take this long. Read above.
many, many people will have trouble completing....
You mean this whip?
Damn mousie is uninformed and ignorant to the average player lmao. People don't want to be mining for 10 to 15 hours
Iāve been on a C Lat node since reset. Almost 5 1/2 hours straight. Iāve scored only 57M points, and have 203M more to go to complete the event. Iām refuse to PURCHASE a second Freesha. Anyone claiming this is a doable event without one is delusional, unless one plans to sit on the game for the full 24 hour event.
its literally mining monaday, and isntead of a grind event, they put up a mining event and yall angry as can be, you're not happy with anyhting. And that must be ops locked then for whip, not available in my store, thank you xtreme. both my web store and pc client doesnt have it
It's ops locked to 40. 10 hours of mining is not good event design any way you look at it. Not from a game that requests so much screentime everyday to be competitive
According to the stfc link, im apparently in the top 5% of players.. but I'm getting closer to finding something else after the last few months of increasingly grind-oriented events, well, grind, unless you can spend $50-100 in the store..
It is absolutely NOT simply a āMining Mondayā event. I was completed the Latinum Rush event about 1 hour after reset. The scoring may be the same, but the completion scale of the events are exponentially different.
And if you canāt find the Freesha for sale on the web store or PC/Phone/Tablet clients, you just arenāt looking. I found it within 10 secondsā¦.
I donāt think you have a very good grasp of the English language. Or at least a concept of very little effort. In THIS comment that you posted, you described effort that amounts being glued to your device for at a minimum of 8.5 hours. That is a full work day for most folks. š¤Ø.
You check your Phone every 30 min while at work?!?!? Or you imagine a node will be there waiting for you, free and all, when you do a Coffee break?
Please stop. This is not incredibly achievable as your own math pointed out. Resetting multiple ships on multiples nodes for 10 hours is not reasonable even if there are enough nodes which THERE ARE NOT. People have real lives to live, bills to pay, kids to parent. Why have you wasted so many mats on 2 feeshas and 2 dvors? You donāt get extra refines.
I'll probably be able to have a freesha by tomorrow, in any case too little time or too high the goal. After mining for hours I only reached 22M out of 240M. Unattainable at my level! (lvl 36)
its completely achieveable done in 1/3 the time you have to do it. Yall acting like its hostile grinding. It's an AFK activity. Please stop being ignorant and pretending like mining requires you to spend real screen time. Hostile grinding, crit hit events is real grinding. AFK mining, please. If you cant handle that, there is no way to satisfy you
too much
Itās not even possible for me! Iād have to do 58 trips for concentrated lat, which would take about 26 hours of continuous mining!
Do you work for Scopely?
There should not be any event that takes more than hour to complete.
Mining Monday has always been a terribly designed event. Hats off to $copely for finding a way to make it even worse.
Thanks for making mining Monday so much worse by adding another mining event that takes 18 hours straight to complete.
i dont think you understood the event
Managing four ships when the nodes are in high demand and literally all full in order to finish the event in 10 hours of constant swapping is not afk. Nobody is interested in your trolling. I donāt know why you keep bringing in unrelated arguments about hostile grinding which is also toooooooo many kills and takes tooooooo long but again that is an entirely different issue. Everyone in ac and gc on my server are complaining. You are the outlier.
I have 2 feeshas. One can reach deep space clat nodes which arent very many really so I gotta sit her there and watch for a free node. The other feesha is small and can only go to regular faction space. And we have 24 hrs to do this on a workday? I literally cannot dedicate gameplay during work hours! Get home and start. Its only been a couple hours ive mined 18 million out of 276 million. And bedtime is in 5 hours. This event is impossible for the majority of us who work and have kids! Change the goalpost. Simply change it to end in 3 days.
Scopely: Are players bored of Lat Mondays? HMMMMmmm, how about .... LAT MONDAY MAYHEM
more like "I know what'll get them to buy Ferengi Whip a ridiculously high score to complete an event."
Your lat event requirements are so absurd. No one has that amount of time or necessary ships to make that event even feasible to complete
What's all the excitement about? Not every event has to be created for everyone. In the end, I only got 1 part for the cat officer for the tokens šš¤£. Boring!!! Oh yes and 400 tokens... but I can't redeem them, because only from 4800 tokens the cat thing comes. š¤·š¼āāļø Well, it doesn't matter... I have a cat allergy anyway
This event is bs for anyone under ops 40. This is at ops 39 and it's almost as much as an ops 47 player needs to finish it.
The mining event requires me to mine several million clat. That would take me 30 hours to complete the event.
Dear Scopley. Have you lost your mind? Unless you are in the top three, it's not bad enough that the Latinum rush has horrible rewards. But now you make it impossible for F2P players even to compete. Pay to win is a bad business model. Figure it out!
Itās player rush hour⦠good luck getting a conLat node. They are queued up 3 deep right across every node on my server. Does Scopely even have a record of how many nodes of each type they got, and the maximum server output? If so, they surely should have known that available nodes were not sufficient to supply the server population.
And now slow mode is enabled to keep the admonishment from getting too deep. Way to acknowledge discord Scopley
pretty much need the whip to do it in a decent amount of time
Yes. Need the whip to have a shot at doing this.
So everyone should rush to 40 just so they can even see the whip in the store, before theyāve finished research and ship BP collecting of lvl 40+ ships while they are 39 or lower (to make 40-41 easier) then spend a bunch of money on a tech that (while admittedly is very very good at what it does) is most useful 1 day a week for one event (4 if you count normal lat Monday stuff) ā¦. Yeahā¦no. Iām good.
Come down and calm down. For the tokens in the event, there are only one or two parts of the cat thing. It's not worth the excitement. It looks more than it really is. Thanks to the new Scoply Roulette... there are useless other officers but not the cat. š
Do you guys actually play? The gold rush timeline and milestones is ridiculous.
If you alienate you F2P players they will eventually leave the game. These are the people who spend 20 to 50 bucks a month. That is a serious amount of money. If you choose to alienate the majority of your player base with out providing a quality experience more power to you. But you will fail in the end
honestly between the bugs not getting fixed, and new heroic bugs being introduced like no station logs, no notifications, these player repellent events, if you told me they have rogue employees trying to kill the game on purpose I would believe it
Would gold rush event really been as big a deal as it is if yhey had labeled it heroic? It would have just gotten lost in the dozen other heroic events.
im not even f2p, it doesnt show up in the store at all, but I wouldnāt buy it anyway, what am I gonna do with more clat I already have enough to max refine for the next 2 years š¤£
If you didn't do clat, only lat you could complete it in....about 157 hours. Only about 17 hours for clat. Easy by Scopley standards lately. I only do lat for, well I don't anymore. It's just another useless part of the game.
This ARC has been extremely disappointing. One, if not the most boring in 12+ months. š¦
I agree, especially the officer events. I was having fun with the Voyager arc besides the awful bugs. This one felt short for me. Worst since October last year.
Gold Rush milestones are typical scopely. quality effort as always.
A year ago I would have been all over the whip to increase my mining Monday chances but today itās an easy pass. With everything pay to win at this point who cares about these events. And the gambling nature of upgrading the forbidden tech is just the icing on the cake to make it an easy pass.
Scopely needs to reduce the milestones for gold rush š
Scopley you need to extend the gold rush event to more than one day. Ridiculous milestones for a 24 hour event.
I can get only 4Mln per 30 minutes, that makes 8mln per hour. 8*24=192.even if I use other ships with arrock I'm not gonna be completing the event.
Iv just stopped. Almost at 2nd tier but as a human being I needed to sleep so that took 8hrs of my time. And now I need to work, and surprisingly my boss doesnāt want me playing a game during that time. And even if they did I dont think I would still have enough time to complete it
why are you running a gold mining event during a gold stealing event, obviously you are as always responding to earlier feedback then discounting anything from someone that hasnāt spent a fortune with you š¤£
1 T'ANA shard for about 18 to 20 hours of mining. Hmmmmm, Not a real reason to spend $100 on the whip. Nor is it any incentive at all to even try to complete the event. ANd even if the event is recurring, it takes 4800 shards to get the officer. Again not a real reason to even try or spend money.
Are there really people who bought the Ferengi whip because of the event? š³ It's about something else. It's all about the refinery that belongs to it. And of course the mining rate of 9 to 100 million Latinum per hour. The event doesn't matter
Whip not available to my ops (39, am I wrong)
But i have 4 maxed(ops lock) feeshas, and I did the maths. 5 hours mining with them is not enough to complete event.
If 5 hours play with 4 ships is inadequate for a 24hr event then I think you are asking too much.
Also, still frustrated by the trend of crappy weekend events, when I have time, and really demanding events during the week, when I have less time.
9 hours grinding for this š§
You expected more? Lucky you got 4 cat shards tbh
Haha useless cause you need 4800 of the chards š, Just more garbage in the inventory
why put in a event that is impossible to finish just to tease people
Same reason they do it regularly: to get you to buy a pack to solve the problem.
This is at the core of their engagement model to you.
I believe that still is bs though
That mining event is very hard to complete.
you had to end the treasury long before reset, did you ??
The timer goes to 3 days once you finished the amount of hostiles needed.
well that just sucks, cause i was thinking to open that this morning, and it was gone, ty for the explanation
I don't mind spending now and then but all these new primes and stuff are getting a little ridiculous not buying the whip for a ship I only use once a week....
Keep in mind it's not just the whip, you have to max it as well for it to really count
yeah after wastind rods on upgrades that don't stay and no clarification they could only be assigned to one ship don't care about the Q stuff it's just annoying now
Ok. So I'm trying to get my account back. I have returned the info requested. Still nothing. I need help please !!
more mining .. yay
Scopely.... this needed to be a 2 to 3 day event. NOT 24 hrs!!!!š¤¬š¤¬š¤¬
Yeah! More mining...
What do you do when youāre not planning events? It certainly isnāt āwatch Star Trekā
Another mining event? Ok.
I agree with you Speed unfortunately probably falling on deaf ears they want to buy things so you can complete no freebies any just $$$$$$$$$$$$
Can you do something more interesting for lower players than BP being Hostile Hunt and Friends also being a hostile hunt? Much exciting, wow.
cant get my reel says player id not found
Hey, did those first contact emails go out in the weekend or even on Monday? I have checked my email attached including spam folder in case it filtered out there.
oh look, another mining event thats almost impossible to finish...
It probably is a scam. And your āinviteā got ālostā. It will be your fault somehow. š¤Ø
Checking on this.
Why isn't upgrading the Q building a part of the event? A rather stupid decision imho. š
The greed from Scopely has grown to an extend, that has completely ruined the game. Rather sad, actually. This was once a really great game. Now it can't even be called a game anymore. Very sad development. It wont be long, before it's reduced to a playground for rich people and their kids, only meant for showing off, who can afford to spend the most money. You wont even have to do anything in the "game" then. Just show each other some screenshots from Store, so you can see, who spent the most. š
𤣠š
What idiot keeps thinking it a good idea to run all of these mining/clat events, especially when the second one is a cheap copy of the lat rush event?
@wanton copper FT slb not scoring properly. Equipping/dequip FT does not score. Unlocking does. Event clearly says spending rods will score
Mining Monday has become mundane also the rewards arenāt really worth it
They want us to spend lots of money and spend lots of time yet they donāt make it worth it like it used to. As they added 4g and 5g the scaling up for rewards has been a joke. Other than the community and friends one makes in game. Not much about it is worth it. And I made them friends during the better days of the game. Donāt thing it would be the same if I started today. Sad to see so much potential wasted because of shortsightednesss and greed.
@wanton copper Thanks for the opportunity to gain more of the special recruit tokens with yesterday's extra mining event. It is always nice to get some unexpected loot. Wouldn't be upset to see it pop up a couple more times this week. š
The first contact mining SMS levels are a bit high, at OPs 36 it's 24 mil points...I know it's over 2 days but if you don't have your Feesha, that's a whole lot of mining time...you'd need to mine 4.8 mil regular lat to get there. And I'd bet not a whole lot of people have their Feesha at lvl 36
like 7 more times in 5 days and change š¤£
The event "Tech Booster-SLB" isnt registering fusion rods that you spend even though it says fusion rods spent-1 pt.
Typically if rods do score they will only score when you use them to unlock the ft slot on a ship for the first time. Using rods to remove a ft or to add a ft to a ship don't count. Don't ask me why
Just plain and simple, very simple Dopely logic. It's driving the Vulcans crazy. š
Is this reward in the TC season pass a joke? 8?!!!!!!!!!
I used them that way as well. Started with over 20k and have 2500. It didn't matter, they don't register for the event.
Hiiiii @wanton copper , just curious, is the Territory BP going to be 3 months of the exact same event? š“
Please take a look at the rewards for it as well. They seem awfully small for a 3 month long event.
seriously! This "retrieving" bug is annoying!
Itās not a big if it works as intended!
It's intended to NOT render?
Yep, one time in ark it is š¤£
Too many pvp events... I wouldnt mind if they were fair fights. but getting chased by a ship twice yr size is no fun at all... Popping a bubble, see ya tomorrow (maybe)
Go shoot oc miners and score.
For the love of God can u stop making an event where both the pvp element and non pvp element are in the same system. Having HF and PVP on the same system is beyond frustrating. Pls think about these things
No gift code for the aniversary ? š¦ it would have helped us low rank player ā¤ļø
How about just make the PVP events sporting... it is just not sporting or fun when a someone that is +14 lvl above you is clearing the systems.
@wanton copper There needs to be serious reworking of the TC battlepass events. The once a week join takeovers is fine, if like me, you are in a large alliance on your server - but for the majority of players its very difficult/impossible to complete. There needs to be alternate scoring in that BP of some sort to allow folks without a shot at TC due to wars, alliance size, or timing to still complete the events. Again, I have had no issues personally, but its HORRIBLY designed for most players. A simple secondary scoring mechanic would probably resolve that.
The whole point of it is to cause more fighting and scrambling for tc. If people want to try and finish these events they need to take the lesson and start condensing up into alliances of actually active accounts on many servers, instead of alliances of 40+ accounts where a chunk are inactives or passed-on abandoned bases held onto for padding numbers.
While we have seen some groups do just that, what we are seeing more of is people leaving the game. Scopely keeps trying to create more pvp in a game with some of the worst designed pvp parameters/rewards I have ever seen in decades of gaming. The powerbands allowed to hit eachother are pitiful, the game-breaking officers add to it, then you have the complete lack of real rewards for pvp action in the game (even incursions, which is a pure pvp day has horrific rewards compared to the effort). The only reason most people do pvp is self-satisfaction, revenge, or trolling in stfc these days. The TC redesign hasnt really influenced much extra pvp in our server as scopely has yet to resolve the core issues with pvp in this game, it needs a complete redesign, each fight should have risk on both sides (even hitting a miner should have some risk), and there needs to be real rewards for the activity that help you grow in the game (besides the silly PD leaderboard) 𤣠.
Anyway, point still stands on the TC BP events, the scoring metric is not attainable by too many players and alliances, add a secondary metric to at least give some players a reason to try (you can make it difficult). Soap box put away, lol.
More people that leave means the faster they can merge servers and have more chaos.
Nothing about anything they do is about sustainability and longevity. Itās literally throw as much abuse at the players as they can through packs and see what and who sticks.
As long as itās more money than they expect to pull in, itāll never change. And when it isnāt the money they expect, theyāll just shutter the servers and rerelease 3-4 months later as a sequel.
You broke territoriesā¦.cant relo base canāt launch or recall realta canāt participate in takeovers canāt finish eventā¦.hmmm but I CAN QUIT
Suggest 2 rule changes: max 3 (NOT 5!!!) contiguous territories per team and no need to keep the 1* if you win a new territory. More teams can participate if decent limits on the strongest teams.
You don't need to keep a 1* territory, and you never have
Seriously this isn't it. Stop doing this syndicate progressions with goals too high and time too short. Especially when the long syndicate event had such low milestones.
Not only is the syndicate event not achievable for many players it looks to be final way to earn the missing tokens for tana!!! That assume no other events this week with them! Shame on you scopely pricing free to play and many paying players out of the running! @wanton copper @icy cairn hope you actually have the clout and decency to resolve this!!! Shame on you all
Resolve it? It was probably their idea š¤Ø. Looks good on their TCP reports š
Those MS look like have changed by a lot from what they previously used to be
Maybe they have but putting the senior medical tokens in what is probably for an average player a paywall is an absolute disgrace! Especially when you consider a material spend event a mining event that many players struggled with and Iāve seen several experienced players with decent budgets give up on this absolutely stinks! Disgraceful by scopely and as we will no doubt see endorsed by trolls and the usual silence from community managers with no backbone
Not to mention this fn BS
PLEASE scopley stop ruin game ..just stop. Ask Product owners of each arch if they are really that stupid
I just want to say Thank you Scopely.. Thank you for not indicating another earning of syndicate xp. I collected over 12 K of syndicated credit 11 hours ago. Now you roll out with a suprise syndicate XP event. Thank you. Oh ps if you haven't realized that my thank you's are 100% sarcasm. 𤬠. Curious how many legacy players or spenders are you loosing because of your poor decisions of trying to get instant revenue instead of residual income by keeping players happy and motivated???
yes make decisions dont spend Syndicate xp because rewards are awesome:
They are really just putting tokens in places that players can't get to, just so they can say "oh, there are ways to do it"...just not ways that are possible
wow so generous.... what a joke! love it when Scopely give us a fraction of a reward that we will never have a chance to redeem for anything ....
Have you tried rebooting yet?
i think that's a visual bug/mistake.
i got that same reward, but my trial bells definitely do not end in 8, and there's no way to spend an amount ending in 8.
weird...
There is 242 in step 18. That gets you back to an even number.
Sure, but them doing THAT is just silly and insulting. It is a non rewarded slot. And worse yet, deceptive. But then scopy is deceptive and manipulative so par for the course š
What is the 5 year token used for?
Used to clutter our inventory.
Joking. They havenāt told us yet what would we be able to get with those. Probably next month or December we will know.
Where is it?
looks like ops 35-39 is currently missing this from who i'm talking to
we have a 35 on my leaderboard
Ops 39 here and I donāt have it either
so Ops 36-39 bracket is missing it
30 minutes after reset and still no response to a missing SLB affecting multiple players. I submitted a ticket as well. Communication this month has been very unfortunate and lack luster.
there doesnt seem to be a friends in high places event today and im 2 off reward
the SLB Sum of its parts is now populating... 54 minutes after reset
@wanton copper Events rewards need to be updated. It should be based on OPS tiers to level the reward out better for all OPS levels. (20's, 30's, 40's, 50's & 60's) At least by doing it that way the rewards would coincide with items one would need at or around those OPS levels.
I know the TC Pass free rewards are supposed to be a lot smaller, but really, 8 trial bells ? Thats useless š
@wanton copper itās shouldnāt have an apostrophe. Itās not āsum of it is parts.ā Donāt you have a spellchecker?
Is this supposed to be sum of parts? I've tried my phone and my pc and cleared localization. Am I missing another step.
This TC Trailblazer event, besides having some of the poorest rewards ever and being almost universally disliked, suffers from the same problem that many limited-schedule events do. Players are frequently unavailable when they need to be. Once you have a territory, your alliance is essentially limited to very few opportunities to compete unless you give up a territory, which makes the whole thing useless. Players are universally going to be shortchanged a few times if their schedule conflicts in any given week. Alliances in the past might plan a give-and-take over a month, and players can negotiate their schedules to participate. This format doesn't allow for that. Players are being forced to accept being shortchanged with no recourse. That's not going over well.
I completed this weeks Trailblazer event in two takeovers: a 1-star and a 2-star with 5 ships at the 1* and 4 at the 2*. It's definitely doable, even if you might have conflicts in the week (but couple that with not having 5 territories, and any others, and yes, that can spell doom).
It's doable if the big dogs let you score. Otherwise all ships are kos, and it's a slog. Would love another way to score points on none tc or 2 and 3 star territory days, even if it's partial. For us not tied down to a single territory.
Cloaked ship especially amalgams (for duration) do score with no risk. But what we usually do is allowing other alliances to register to "compete", lose the takeover but score, so everyone is happy.
The Cat Doctor events are a real problems to me.
- The initial Material spending event resulted in 4,000 / 4,800, leaving many players wondering which trap was it.
- The lat mining event definitely so high so as to "strongly press" players to buy the whip. 4,400 /4,800 after hours of mining without whip.
- The syndicate XP thresholds are also high so as to again try to force players to spend one way or another
This is a deceiving, stressful experience which will leave many players with useless tokens ... and those who succeed, even without spending will not be pleased for the stress they endured not knowing how and when or which new "spend your bucks mate" trick they'd have to expect. Again it could have been OK with some communication ahead, but as it is it just adds up new reasons to leave the game.
I TOTALLY AGREE with everything you just said, they have done an absolute crap job at letting the STFC community know what events are coming like they have done MOST of the time in the past
I'll fill in the blank for you. Next event will have $99 packs, coupled with lots of mining, clicking and a few PvP events that people moan about because it interferes with āļøš
Here is some feedback about TCā¦. During active take over how about only allowing alliances ships that are actively participating in a take over to attend. ā¦.. this way it makes the TC capture more interesting
Another round of BS events today
How about offering a chance to actually get Tāana shard instead of Shaxs again? š
Wrong recruit SLB?
Add Shax for the recruit tokens, but then don't offer recruit tokens in the SMS like with T'ana. Well that's stupid
thats how you know they had a REALLY bad month ... need freeman to rescue their monthly profit target
What is with the lack of events this arc, nothing today other than heroic spend events
No event to get the last 400 unlock tokens?
Slap in the face of players to offer event rewarding syndicate xp AFTER the syndicate advancement event ends (especially the way they structured the point levels) - a big why botherš”
probaly right. third week is always up in the air. at least its an SLB that has a sms and not XLB with no sms.
That put in ways to get those other tokens, but it required doing well on the insane mining and syndicate event
Ok, some feedback regarding event placement. With the new tabs, it's easy to miss doing the BP event as it's not immediately visible in the list of events for the day. I don't believe I missed any events this arc and yet I find myself looking like I'm going to be short on points with only one day to go.
Maybe put the little red dots on the BP event tab for any uncompleted BP events?
use cloak sit in territory during event. when cloak about to expire, sui on someone repair, come in cloaked, repeat. The TC battle pass event measures 1 thing time your ship is in TC system during event.
I really hope they add some way to get Dr. T'Ana. I don't do enough pvp to make buying them make sense. I like all the below deck characters and would like to collect them.
Did the raggedy Friends in High Places event run only the exact bare minimum amount of events to be able to complete it? 15 points, and Iām one shy. Maybe I brain farted on one day, but still. Kinda crappy $cope. But still not surprising. Anything to make someone wanna rage spend.
There were at least 2 extra events for that meta.
Oh well. Thanks. RL takes precedence over a phone game, is still kinda crappy tho. Swipe the Amex if you really want something is their business motto anyway.
Mining Monday event is lame and the rewards donāt even make it worth putting in the energy
What they should do is put parts of the whip from like 10 to 25th place for mining Monday. Maybe even lower down the bracketsā¦.
The leaderboard definitely needs to be extended and the parts increased. The ops bands need to be tightened. I also think that the addition of parts would also be a great idea too!
I'd just block them.
Utter crap event design.
Here the same... I'm just a little bit away from quitting the gameš¤¬
Please donāt have missions require killing more than the minimum level hostiles in a system for a mission, leads to everyone only killing those and spawning only low levels that donāt count (ex require us to kill lvl 24s not lvl 25s in a lvl 25 system) last few arcs were good about this but this arc has reverted to the old terrible way
those missions usually don't explicitly require you to hunt in that system, i often use whatever other ship i have grinding elsewhere to score points in those missions.
The active nanoprobes are a bit dated in the number awarded or definitely not ops linked...I saw a gift claim that was missing a claim button, but it disappeared
Seriously⦠why are you still running those mega cube events when youāve still not implemented any real sourcing for the directives
š
@wanton copper Please pass along my thanks for the Megacube event. Please also get 11/11 added to the event store, or run some kind of slb to get shards for him. He's the only borg officer I don't have and likely from being excluded from stuff like this for a long time now.... Thank you!
Maybe update this to score points for spending Borg solo armada directives as well?
Borg armada directives gift didnt work for me either š©
I have no problem with older systems getting used, but they really need to be overhauled if they are going to be run. Megacube rewards are terrible. Sourcing is non-existent which would normally be ok since no one runs them anymore, but if you're going to run this event there needs to be another way to get them.
This definitely needs to be updated if you want to run it on older servers
I wish we would get something else than Active Nanoprobes. I want more Borg Armadas and MC directives
Yep, increase the Active nanoprobes, add charged nanoprobes...also maybe the Talios can get a skin like the Vi'Dar has or maybe some update to keep the Vi'Dar worth getting the skin...
Oh god not more red dots.
The Mega cube like Worm Armadas are a waste of time and effort. They rewards are weak and the credits pay out with Borg events is way to low also.
How do they get rid of Ferengi Whip during the Lat event. Logged in at reset and the whip is gone. Any advice??
Stop rewarding their efforts to sell solutions to events they break? š¤·š»āāļø
So no spend event for the replicator tokens? Just one at the start for whales?
This can't be right for Live Target Practice? I would need over 600 lvl 36 probes or 250 level 37s.
Can you not kill the 40+ ones? They give a lot more points
Not with a Talios that just turned T4. Can kill like 17 level 37s a hull.
A higher level (43 vs 41) teammate with a T3 only needs 998k points, so I'm assuming the event is tied to Talios tier. So, leveling up the Tally one tier causes the event to require 250% more points?
yup. Tier 6 here. 15.59 mil. milestone - was about 2.5 runs on 40's. Not terrible. but scopley scaling.....
What crew do you use?
My T4 Talios with Janeway/Doctor/Torres farms 38s just fine. Very efficiently
Iāve always used SNW Pike/Uhura/Una for borg.
The Live Target Practice was a bit hard to complete
Should my hopes be getting up because there's 9 more days to get Dr. TANA
"Should my hopes be getting up because there's 9 more days to~~ get~~ purchase Dr. TANA".... fixed it for you
I have at least half a dozen alliance members that have reported they did not receive the directives gift chest yesterday. I myself had to try and claim it 4 times before it actually worked. Can you please get them to resend the chest @wanton copper
Apparently the chest actually contained enough for 1 solo armada and nothing for the uncommon Borg Cubes? Hoping there are uncommon directives coming.
I hope we get the reimbursement for the mega again. that was nice.....
with g5 being added to territory, point values should be re-evaluated for mining mondays. Watching the sub 40 SLB's get blown away from people mining anything but latinum and concentrated latinum. j
hello ... im back !! missed me ?
Got to love all those retrieving events!
Is there a reason we canāt have a list of what the events are for each of these little mini arcs? I have a calendar for our alliance, and right now I canāt populate events into the calendar until after reset⦠Thatās incredibly annoying.
What's going on with the Attack Pattern: Alpha SMS. System was Pasadoran first and now it's Panak. Make your minds-up Scopely!
Do you give any thoughts to the pvp brackets today or just throw darts at number on the wall? Why are ops 60 players in my system for vidar pvp (ops42)?
Also if a ship is ops locked (talios) then why is the pvp brackets expanded to allow higher tier ships to participate? All these events are is a drain on trit and repair speed ups. Itās just all losing to people 10+ ops higher or 1-3 tier of ship higher.
You know what would have been a good idea? Ops banding the talios event based on ship ops lock. But common sense isn't all that common.
Did you check talios system? You might have confused them. Given the other gaffes, itās possible they changed it after resetā¦
Definitely showed up Pasadoran first in the event and then it changed
Great job on the vidar PvP brackets
Good heck, can scopely ever build a decent pvp event? Answer - no....
That was sarcasm. Yet another event that had potential but was ruined by the Idiots at Scopely. Seriously take time to actually play your freaking game once in a while. You all clearly do not understand š©
Not a fan of the "Must be the Attacker" only scoring.
Scopely do you have fun? Iām not. Do pvp operations lvl related in different systems. I know harder but possible! Itās not fun at all get killed by much more stronger higher lvl players! Especially when you are doing more and more harder to complete and more expensive events.
Proper ops bracketing would have made a more fun event. As it is, it will take forever to be killed enough to complete.
<@&509690795536941056> while commend Scopely for doing a pvp event, yall need to work on the brackets. When the ship is ops locked its completely unfair to make the brackets span across said ops lock. With the event being the same ship being vs itself, it's nearly impossible to beat a ship 2 tiers higher.
what a stupid event without bracket restrictions ... 53s-57s murdering 31+ in that one system... $craply does not dissapoint in their event planning
š©event. Rename clubbing baby seals eventš and oh yeah, you havenāt donāt š©to improve sourcing independent credits despite making a hefty percent of the new š©officers needing them.
For the love of everything holy, add PvP brackets to these PvP events for the Borg event.
PvP events are useless for F2P players. 90% of players use some kind of non F2P crews and obliterate any F2P player. Thank you for removing PvP elements from ALL milestone events and only do PvP in leaderboards.
the talios pvp event is garbage š© . asking higher level players to waste 10B+ trit in their talios for 1 officer shard pull is stupid. at least add in a decent Trit reward for the talios pvp event. your literally just punishing players for putting any effort into leveling their talios when there are level 60 whales with maxed talios and maxed iso researches/FT's just spam killing every player that enters. complete waste of trit.
The Vidar pvp event seems to be going well, actually. There is a bunch of people of Panak. Too many whales though, hard to do anything. However, at least I am not alone in the system š«
I just crap crewed my vidars and feeding them to low ops, rather lose to someone low ops than to the whales
you made a battlepass event tab... the overflow should be in that tab as well
The Vidar and the Vidar Talios should not be doing pvp in the same system. Needs to be Vidar against Vidar, Talios against Talios.
pvp events are crap
done getting my vidars murdered, i had 3 so that was easy .. not i have to get murdered 24 times on my talios, what a waste
Thatās how itās set up⦠Panak is for vidar on vidar, niawillen is talios on talios
I LOVE rebooting the game after EVERY time my vidar dies... its a great feature...
It's definitely reasonable to ask an Ops 41 to fight an Ops 54
with ops locked ships it is even more reasonable š
There are so many Talios here šµāš«
Where do you see lock here š ?
Not worth the time or repairs for 2 officer shards that I canāt promote anyway because the game wonāt source Ind credits properlyā¦
@wanton copper Can you please pass along to the powers that be, that shoving an Ops 39 into the same PvP system as an Ops 50+ is not only terrible design, itās extremely boring.
Completely skipping the talios event as an ops 35, because the reward is not worth 24 repairs.
idk maybe on the impulse engine of the talios?
Iām ops 45 and without having all the not-freeman game breaking officers, it is not worth a measly 30 points to die over each time. Waste of RSS, waste of speedups. More $cope ineptitude to induce rage spending.
Why, that's it. Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk
Sigh.... op locked brackets are a good thing.
Recruit and Assimilate event: Borg officer Bonus not calculating properly, 10 count 3/11 shards and only 500 points
You all are missing the point. They didn't bracket it intentionally. The officer packs are still in the store. Pvp is not meant for anything other than generating money off a small number of people who they can trick into thinking it matters. Todays event makes that plain. The whales can feel like big boys and if they don't they can buy their way to feeling better. That is the one and only point to the event.
You can have sales AND competition.
Tango Event = Get shot 24 times by people who paid money for upgrading the Talios. A very exciting event
I'm not defending it or saying it can't be otherwise. It isn't otherwise for the reasons I stated. They don't want competition. They want spending. If they wanted competition it would show.
<@&509690795536941056> at least have some coversation about making the brackets close to equal. Level locks sort of make it so you can't fight and win any battle in some brackets
and don't forget, you must be atacker for scoring your loss š¤¦āāļø š¤£ I ignore this event with a clear conscience
Nope. I just send the Talios again and again into the system. It scores for me
Talios really isnāt hard to upgrade free
48 repairs is not my idea of a fun event day.
You don't have Scopely's humor then?
Vemet is your friend if you are going for losses.
I totally missed that there is a second event with the same ******.
So how does this PVP event work? Mine is use Jelly/Franklin/Turas in Cita Laga for PVP and must be attacker. First, the attacker part seems not to be true. I was attacked in a Turas by a Turas and got 30 points after losing. Second, do both players have to be in one of the listed ships? Just the attacker? Just the defender? If a Turas attacks a realta and wins, do both get points? Neither? If a Realta attacks a Turas and wins, do both get points? One? Neither? Could this be any less clear?
Hey Scopely. Bet ya nobody thinks its fun to repair and resend a ship to the same system to die 24 TIMES to finish an event where they cant do anything but lose because the higher ops levels and whales have the same system for the event. Nice one...
Please change this officer's characteristics, that's impossible because a player makes everything with flatten just suck
this is how these events always go. we have plenty that stick around all day and just hit down....
Joke joke joke what a horrible idea. Can't come up with something fun for everyone š©
Vemet can at least half the repairs. Also the event is scoring for defenders in both events, no matter what the screen currently claims.
yeah, still have to lose 24 times though. because theres no winning against people so many ops levels higher than you.
2 pvp events and domination. Nothing to encourage me to play more than gathering dailies.
Guess who just finished the event with 23 defeats and 1 victory (unexpectedly found someone even lower than me)? Me. I know it by own experience šš
Add a pve scoring metric to the talios pvp events next time please
These events should be renamed: āAttack Pattern: Waste Tritaniumā and āAttack Pattern: Waste Repair speed upsā
Some events-feedback for Scopely.. forced pvp equates to no participation from me. šš
700 / 30 = 24. K so have to lose 24 times in a Kehra nice!
perfect crewing for this pvp event. nailed it
Might work better with an officer who proc's burning - JS
nah, 2 kills for the price of one with this guy. perfect crewing and effort for this event, imo. lol!
Once again scopley creates an event for the whales to win they could have at least split it in to lvls lost 24 times to whales events are getting worse
Put Cath as Captian and send it in. Synergize her and get cheaper repair bills for all your destryoed Tallios and Vidars
Scopely limiting pvp to certain systems simply allows whales to blockade systems so people can't score in the game. its borderline bullying but as long as whales pay scopely allows this kind of behaviour to happen, way to go ruining the game even more. but lets ignore this sort of behaviour.
Milestones and leader boards need to be in different systems
For once thanks Scopely for bringing back a new version of Megacube
For now my alliance mates enjoy it. Yes getting a balanced ennemy in PVP is sometimes hard, but defeat counts and all in all it is cheap to repair. Now we would like to know how often will this event recur... The shop is interesting but would be better even if we have an idea when it will come back.
Enjoyed the dual pvp events today. Thanks! š
It isn't true, I completed both events with a 1 day shield on
I'm glad to see sourcing for Locutus, hope this event is run regularly now. Also would like the purchase cap of 30 shards removed in future
What am I supposed to do with this? Could you please design event currency and prices so that we can actually spend it all instead of having more junk weāll never use again cluttering up our resource screen.
"Attack Pattern Tango & Alpha SMS" is about the "Worst PVP" anybody could dream up. Ships that are LEVEL LIMITED must fight Huge Ships and Huge players. Littles get Ate up Over and Over and Over. Twenty Five Deaths for some to Finish Each Event "Tango & Alpha SMS"!
I USED UP ALL MY REPAIR SPEEDUPS completing Attack Pattern Tango & Alpha SMS. Fifty deaths for Some!!!
My event system is completely empty. Yay.
They donāt care about the krill, just keeping the whales happy, and theyāre hard pressed to do that, now theyāve given them options to buy every win, they can only compete among themselves, and thatās just a game of whoās going to throw the most money at them. š¤·š»āāļø
@queen kindle Why was the TC battlepass weekly event not reset today, like it has been the last couple weeks?
puts it on the pile of the other 200 worthless currencies
Died 3 times (Vemet trigger X2) with Vemet and max synergy. The guy killed me back to back so my shields didn't get chance to replenish
Why does attack pattern alpha not score on the loss if you are attacked? The description (unlike attack pattern tango) does NOT indicate you must be the attacker.
we just gonna replay the exact same tc event every week for 3 months then? they couldnāt even bother being imaginative enough to come up with 2 different events for the tc bp?
Yesterdayās āLATINUM RUSHā in the OPS 25 bracket was won by someone who didnāt even use a DāVor by afk mining 5* gas in the territory his alliance had captured. I would argue that the name of the event no longer applies. No Latinum and no rush either.
Why only Talios pvp event was separated in brackets but not the Vidar one? Low and mid lvl players, those without Talios, got fooled once again...
If you use ask your repair speed ups, you are definitely doing something wrong. Should be sitting on thousands of them.
selling old borg directives just to score with... you're gonna lose all the f2p players who are fed up.
Vidar PvP event name update: "Attack Pattern: Die 23.3 times in a row" [and spend speedups/lat to repair]
afk mining 250k G5 territory nodes does not seem plausible.
If you have another idea where a sudden jump of 8 million could have came from, I am all ears. With 55 points per unit that boils down to roughly 145k.
@rose oracle if you are going to rework an event to 2.0 could at last make a correct information about it like oh yes about the armada event now it with solo armada only. Just an idea to donāt upset every single player of your game
Recommendation. Either reduce the cost Borg event store or drastically increase the payout rewards for currency. With removing the SLB for character shards and not replacing it with another officer is brutal. Not to mention top payout for the top SLB is 6 epic shards. Even if y9u ran this every week, y9u wouldn't be able to max a single officer in over 2 years. And that's if youre the first place finisher for every week for a year.
Basically the revamped Borg event, unless repeated weekly or at least monthly is no better and the removal of the one free megacube attempt just means that megacubes will be even more dead content.
Did someone forget to hit the button for the MegaCube Directives Bonus event again?
This is actually the worst event now. This is less rewarding than faction hunt
MegaCube directives payout.... That should still be a thing....
Please activate? #ā”-mod-announcements message
How are you even supposed to finish this āBorg Armada Attack - SMSā without buying directives?
Way to easy to finish only need 15k points but the solos I can do give 55k on points
@wanton copper They missed the Megacube bonus directive event
pls fix, ty
The need to bring back the refund mega cube event. Do mega cube you get one back.
Missing on both 25-35 players and +35 (screens from 32 and 46 player)
Taking out the MC refund event is totally unacceptable. Stop being so greedy. Weāre not buying them. Iām not going to spend my single start. Congratulations on making this basically dead content event worse
Note to players: Always check event store before investing in events.
The borg event store is hilarious and doesnt warrant any engagement.
I spent 30k indy credits and 300 epic shards to net 2nd prize which will rewardā¦wait for it⦠2 epic shards or nearly enough for the 500 indy credit pack š
What a mug I am! Needless to say, i wont bother with todays borg events or ever again.
Sort it out Scopley
Expansion cubes are supposed to be Megacubes 2.0, so it makes sense lower Ops have Megacube event while higher have BSA/Expansion cube event. (Payouts for Megacube are pathetic, and a couple of Talios could kill one easy.) But, I digress... There should still be a Megacube refund event like there always has been. Removing it is not helping anyone, Scopley.
A single solo borg armada and sms event done
Especially at that low of a level. I think they may be full of it.
anyone knows what's this new "retrieving" about? just popped up
mega cube directive bonus activated... sure, but what do we do with it?
would've been nice if that was included in the announcement, since the game won't tell us.
(this is the event xADx mentioned)
Scopely will never fix or adjust events.. They just scale them crazy upwards with player levels with the same rewards that you got at lvl 39, but at lvl 50+ you gotta use 4-5 times or more time to complete the events cuz of poor scaling...
They are just utterly lazy and dont want to fix events
Megacube Directive Bonus event. The one that gives you 10 Megacube directives for starting one.
uh, can i get a refund or credit for my mega cube diretives that were already spent before your hindsight kicked in??
I can't see any mega cube respawning anyway... What's their rate? 30 minutes?
Sure would be nice if y'all would increase the spawn rate when you have an SLB for killing things that spawn slowly. These Mega Cubes have NO nodes up any more. Literally 40 to 50 ships sitting in each of 3 empty systems on server 38.
Doesn't matter, the rewards are worse then a 6 hour recruit, XP or research event
This was such a gruesome grind for such little payout š¬
Why not expand on and grow the current Borg space before bringing an event back in that ise basically useless?
Change the systems so the cubes are in varying levels of difficulty and for God's sake UP the loot on them.
Mega cubes should offer better chests and loot and be more alluring! Jeesh, maybe a % of a chance of getting an officer shard from them or something š¤·āāļø given ppl a reason to WANT to do them..
Too bad there are no megacube cannons to destroy .... like all armada events, the actual armadas do not respawn fast enough /... ah and only sending MC directives to some not to all ? good lord
Easy fix to the event.
Bring back character shard SLB and make it for 11 of 11. Make it the top winner full unlock of 11 of 11.
Reduce epic officer shards in event to 3000 currency
Rare officers to 1500 currency
And eventually add a talios skin with same price points as the vidar skin.
Epics used to cost 4K - back in the day. I am glad they added to the store - but Mousie is right. The juice isn't worth the squeeze. When top rewards pay 1-3 shards and they cost you tons.... something is wrong.....
@wanton copper Sorry to ask you, but Anyone in scopely team actualy read all those coments or its just another "crying" channel !?
Did they read their owm surveys that spaw from time to time in our games !?
Because not only NON of what was suggest was even considered, but every events is worst than the previous. Repeating the same mistakes is one rhing, but make new worst ones is awfull !!
Once again, sorry to disturb and hope that this complain at least reach someone in Scopely in time to save the game !!
THANK YOU FOR PATIENCE !
I donāt see any comp chest, I used the directive earlier today
Aww thatās alright, never mind they arenāt respawning, we donāt need no Megacubes anyway
OMG when are you going to fix the lag issuesā¦. You brainiacs made territory takeovers a n eventā¦. But we canāt get in systemā¦. To many ships on systemā¦. Figure it out, or get rid of it!
Iām a relatively new player but boy has this event turned me off of wanting to spend any more money in this game. Iām on a new server and many of us are still working on our vidars. None of us got the free tokens. Points are limited to low-level hostiles or joining armadas that kill you if you donāt have one. I opened a support ticket that got a canned response. Everything about this screams run, donāt walk away from this game.
I love that we have time-consuming events like today's Armada's during a busy work week day rather than over the weekend when more people have time for things..
Armadas are a bane of this game.
Remember the banner on alliance menu that says "armadas coming soon". They sure did come in mass
Why 11?
they were going to remove it completely (was the rumour), but the CCs pestered scopely into putting it back in because it forms part of the loop
They try this every time they run it⦠itās frustrating
i know lol
no other place in the game to source him
Really? I've gotten over 500 shards somehow.
Gebpops up randomly but if you're a new player you'll never get him at this rate. Currently he's not even in the Borg store
Borg solo loot boxes. Thatās where you get 11.
I'd rather 5, just because the last tier is taking me FOREVER
Once youāre proper in the borg solo loop (ie over ops 40) he comes pretty quickly in those loot boxes⦠i had like 8 shards of him when I hit ops 40 and now heās nearly t2
Please continue to have the borg event every month, at least.
Hahaha! A Monaveen SLB when sourcing for bp is still a sick cruel joke! Hahaha! Brilliant trolling Scopley, just brilliant!
Yup, why not include and SMS or at least points if you build the Monaveen.
@icy cairn Apparently Scopley can't fix the crap Apexevent then please change from weekly to monthly. What do you think we have hours to wait for the Armadas to finally respawn? We don't need this rubbish. š¤¬
Hope you also have a "Premium Combat Shipsa"
Did not know that. So make it 5 then lol
nice P2W event, again and again ...monaveen upgrade/research...sick of it
If you're going to run the Monaveen event, then give us a sourcing mechanism that applies to ALL players, and not just 3 top alliances, who probably have higher percent of players that bought it.
Pretty obvious this event was just slapped together last minute. Can't even bother to check for correct grammar/punctuation lol
Greetings,
Just a few things to say about:
Return of the Meba Cube event - ops 42, rank 2 in the SLB, rank 6 in the ALB, got 76K borg war funds, which I used for 10 shards for borg queen, 3 random shards. Conclusion - the rewards were rubbish for the effort to be online and hunt freebootoers, hostiles and launch or join borgmadas.
Will do something better with my time on the next Mega Cube event, if it will be the same!
Apex Outlaw event - first of all, the limit on spending the rewards, why was not taken out or increased? Are you afraid that we will upgrade too aggressively and break game balance?? Don't think it's fair to wait 7 days to get two chests for unc mats!
- second, the Apex exile is pointless, from my point of view, because I have the stella skin and all the collectors hijacked ships. So I have ~ 40k of contraband chips that have no use....can you add more items in the event store?
I am sure others have already said the above but perhaps you will take some actions!
Live long and prosper,
D0Nroot
So the megacube event is ran just once per year? If thats the case, then it will take 7 more years for me to unlock FC Locutus. Yearsā¦..not months, years. Thats some b.s. right there.
For F2P players, game is meant to be passed on to kids, with precise instructions on what to do next...
Okay, definitely better rewards to pick from, but the mega cube event Still needs tweaking.
#1 Throw in 5 or 11 shards in the SLB.
#2 1 shard of FC Locutus should be 3/4ths the price of a rare officer shard. (This pricing structure was established in the incursion event store.)
#3 The rewards for the mega cube and regular borg group armadas themselves need to be updated. Throw in Guranteed independent creds for all regular borg group armadas and a chance to get some epic borg officer shards for the mega cube and rare shards for the rare borg cubes which serve 0 purpose cause they score 2x the points of a uncommon and cost 4x more.
#4 At the start of a mega cube event hand out 1 mega cube directive and 5 regular borg directives to all players.
#5 This event needs to be run more than the twice a year it currently is. At the current pace it will be 2 years to unlock Locutus (assuming people had enough currency to buy all 30 shards of him this time.) longer if they're not doing well on leader boards.
To Hades with your stupid Apex join button
I like the MegaCube 2.0 event and think it would be awesome as a monthly addition. Run it the same time you run CoW.
oh goodness nooooooo the rewards are not worth it honestly and CoW and Faction Hunt is already grindy enough.
any chance you can bring back the borg event store this 24 hours to do stuff is annoing
@wanton copper once again here to complain about the Borg refinery 9 times out of 10 I just get a stupid warp token. I get 2 of those a day for free and I can only turn in once every 5 days, what a damn joke.
I gave up on collecting antiques over 3 years ago. The last 8 in a row gave me 1 regular transwarp token.
Reward need to be improved.
Didn't get the points during Territory Defense. none of my members did.
Regarding recent borg 3 day event, I used my megacube directives on the first day and then the bonus diretives event ran on the third day of the overall event. It used to run on the first day. I did not get the compensation chest mentioned in discord announcements and support completely missed the point when I filed a ticket. I don't know what else to do when support apparently can't understand the problem.
Youāve made the mistake of expecting that customer support are there to help you. They are not. Their only objective is to close tickets as quickly as possible to keep their metrics looking good, regardless of whether the outcome satisfies customers. Kiss your MC directives goodbye, they are long gone.
68 million in mats. You Scopely guys are a bit too optimistic, arenāt you?
if you want to drive people from the game, creating event mile stones that are not achievable for the average player is a good way to do it
Did i miss something or was this spend event also not on any calendar/communication?
its like they dont understand just how many mats that actuually is. Wonder if they have calculators. basically. mathamatically unobtainable. At least it says heroic š¤£
Most of this game is about creating FOMO to drive pack sales.
Stop playing the game to their standards and expectations and you may just actually find some form of enjoyment.
if i didnāt find it enjoyable, i wouldnāt be playing. you are deflecting from my point that scopely does not care about the average player. these milestones are ridiculous and unachievable for many. ive already spent 10k materials and havenāt hit the first milestone
Not deflecting at all, I leaned right into how most events are designed to drive you into spending to complete them
Only way to not get caught in worrying about that is to not care about doing or completing those events that are built around being a spender to complete or even make progress on.
Stop tripping - my top milestone is only 430K uncommon. I'm sure i have like 17- 20 ships lying around to upgrade š¤£
bad business model if you ask me. advertisers want to see a player base grow, not decline
What advertisers? There are no in game or on website ads.
This has been their business model for 5 years.
while this is true. We have all noticed a change. Its a slow change when you look at the life of the game. Its very similar to an abusive relationship. A slow manipulation over time. The last few steps they have taken have up'd the aggression. Its kind of a funny model where 20-30 dollars a month across your base isn't enough to prosper.
i started playing star trek to progress in a different game. they gave me a bunch if gems if i reached lvl 14. i just so happened to enjoy the content. thatās advertising. this was 4 years ago
There's a spend event 90% or better on Saturday/Sunday. Don't act surprised. They also have surprise events in general. It's stimulating. 100% of everything does not need to be posted Everytime. Halloween events start tomorrow. They have not posted what each day is going to be, and that's ok
dont attempt to normalize this behavior. there is no free to play path for the new officers which are the nƩw standard for pvp crew. sourcing for officers in general suks. this makes it worse
It is pretty normal for this game.
This has been normal behavior for 3 years lol. F2P is clearly not the target market for these officers
I can say for the modest spenders freeman came with the battle pass.
its gotten worse. they should know that they are going in the wrong direction. not sure if youāre are trolling or that much of a beta.
I stated nothing but facts. Neither trolling or a beta.
I've been playing this game since it launched in November 2018. The advertisement was to bring you into the game. It did its job. You're here. The model scopely uses is not to placate the "average" player, nor the light spenders, and definitely not the f2p. Does this model suck, it definitely can when your expectations are to be able to be competitive in this type of event if you are f2p or a very light spender.
I've learned to temper my expectations and compete in events they run where I might have a modicum of a chance of placing. I'm a light spender and I know my place in the STFC ecosystem.
š this ! All of this - if you are going to continue to play the game as a F2P or light spender. Scopely does not care about our game experience- or thoughts or opinions. They need us so the whales have someone to smash. That is why F2P and low spenders have 1/2 of a community manager and whales have their own dedicated CMs. Game gets easier when you significantly lower your expectations.
my expectations have been tempered and they are falling below them. Perhaps rolling over and taking it is how we got to this point.
I'm not a math major....but is this a 55% chance of nothing?
Are we being trolled? How does an image get applied upsidedown?
only a 5% chance for an epic officer shard ... HAHAHAHAHAHA š¤”
Still no Syndicate XP spendiing Event?
I'd imagine November 2nd, after we've gained all this free Syndicate xp from the events
You have got to be kidding me. We get a 1 day break in-between spend events? What is this an April fool's event or something? Wrong holiday Scopely.
love how the ALB can be exploited by a solo player in a low level alliance taking advantage of dirt cheap donation cost
A 1 man alliance dominating this ALB because his alliance is level 20 and his donations are super cheap. Really should have contemplated this when designing this event and created a bracket for alliance levels or member count.
One of the worst Halloween event in this game ever made
So are Scoply just horrible at math or is it supposed to be a 55% "chance" of getting nothing?
From 2 chests I got 2 epics and some indy credits š¤·š»āāļø
alliance helps giving points can easily be exploited... š©
There are 12 epics each at 5%
Halloween avatar only goes to top three fleets, LAME!
Wrong. It goes to the top 3 in the āDiplomacyā and top 10 in āIt is for them Doctorā so just get top 10 in the hitting hostile ones and your good.
Still lame unless they add it for non alliance folks
There is a Halloween Event? I thought it was Bones and that Hobgobling guy Andorian with funny ear/antenna? thought they were adding an Andorian finally
I'm all for this Halloween event, but why, WHY do you have to lock the USS Terror skin behind a pay wall? Like, just give us a means of sourcing it in game
Because unlike older games, $10/month for all content is not enough for their shareholders.
The official response is: because bleep you, thatās why.
Doesn't surprise me tbh š
Serious answer though: obsolete things like worthless skins (and the terror really is a truly worthless skin for a part of a loop no one will willingly use directives on, especially with the larger g5 mada chests out now) and pointless things like avatars and frames drive collectionists/completionists crazy and they know there are enough of them extant to make the packs actually sell. They will never give anything old to players free when there is still someone out there willing to drop coin on it.
The really annoying thing about it though is the fact that they could easily add an ingame sourcing for the skin. Amalgam store, Frankie refinery, Event stores etc
Hereās something that more people should realize, and once they do it will change their interaction with the game and this discord: there isnāt a gaming community here because of Scopely⦠there is a Star Trek community here in spite of Scopely.
Yup
someone forgot to add G5 amradas?
nice reward shame i dont have the relay keys to build the actual building tho
My prob is not with the Recruit the Command Heroic SMS, but with the SLB. The fact that as an Ops51 player, Iām in the same bracket as an Ops60 is complete and utter bs. Iām still 2 Ops levels away from even refining unc g5 mats, for crying out loud! It seemed that Ops bracketing at the higher end was getting better earlier this year, but this is just a huge step backwards šš
As a Halloween event, so far it's pretty terrible. The only Halloween tie in is the "pointy ear hobgoblin" thing. Last year yall did an event around trick or treating and collecting gummies and such. This year is a big fail so far.
Wait for the super high point milestones heroic recruiting event thatās part of it šš¾
You know, the one that will be a whole day after the same thing.
I'm aware...
#š¬-events-feedback message
The Halloween event feels like a copy pasta of an old TOS arc event, and, frankly, it's boring. Why not something Halloween-ish that ties into the Lower Decks arc?
Today is just a 2 day long Alliance help event...sigh. It is so boring and completely missing the Halloween vibe.
Officer Battlepass ended before overflow could be completed without spending money.
You missed an event then.
No, I completed every event everyday. It shows 5k from completion. I have never missed an event.
10k remaining?
Maybe there is a scoring delay. But otherwise you missed something.
I definitely missed a full event as I was on holiday and not caring, and am 10k short of completion
I didn't miss events or pay for points. 5k short suggests missing most of one I think?
This is totally on the Halloween vibe!! Itās scary how Scopely think and spooky how they think we are happy
The second-most stupid event every launched (after the teletubbie-event) š”. 3 days of auto-grinding without anything you can do after you hit the 2000 hostiles-limit š”
@sour flax You definitely missed an event because the final event would of scored 10k extra points (roughly) Making up if you missed one milestone
Stuff like this should be simply unacceptable.
why conduct events [like mining events] that some people cannot participate in because of too-extreme pvp? š¤
So NO incursion this coming week?
#ā-official-announcements message
given this event info message ?

Gotta love the "drop your ships in augment space and play a different game" events. Do your dailies and little else thanks to the 2k hostile cap.
Hey Scopely. Can you please distribute your daily event SLBs better across the time zones? For example, all the research slbs end overnight for my zone.
last year they put more effort into halloween than they did into this year's events.
All they had to do was buff ship xp on kills for all normal hostiles etc. this afking in augment space is just a pile of crap, and really only suitable to level low ops ships. Its a spit in the ocean when your ships need millions of xp per level
where is the halloween 2023 frame?? š¤Ø
Im sorry, whats the point of the refinery when it costs more for less - no primes were abused in these screenshots
They really should update the loot table the way they did for the regular refinery
Yet another spend event
Where is the calculated risk gain power event..on schedule
It was supposed to be the SMS. I think someone screwed up
No way!
Or, ya know...have bonus refinery be affected by Bajoran favors like regular refinery is. As it stands, I get hundreds more g5 mats for less per pull from regular refinery. Bonus refinery just isn't even worth it anymore.
agreed, they updated the regular refinery loot tables over a year ago and never adjusted the loot table on the bonus refinery, all the favors etc now on top of it just make it pointless
So for Halloween we get a spend SLB and and officer flash pass. Guess us players get the trick and not the treat. Visions of Charlie Brown saying "I got a rock" comes to mind.
They put the Halloween frame 2023 in the $100 flash pass...
Crappy rewards, crappy event.
Prove me wrong.
Ok....I'll give it a go. If you spend $1000 dollars on packs, max out the SMS and place first in the SLB.....then hey, the rewards aint that bad. Who wants to head over to the pay store with me and buy some packs? Your treat!!
They are doing alot more pay to play, the Saudis must want their money back!
Nailed it. The rewards are just underwhelming, which has become more and more of a hallmark of STFC lately.
Plus a spend event... I mean, c'mon. You can get better rewards by spending for the pack. This I have shared with my alliance and others on the server.
Looks like I spend on pizza and beer. At least I can stare at my full belly and feel a bit of accomplishment. š¤£
really dropped the ball on this one, eh Scopely? smh...
We just have to understand that Scopley hates you if your poor. Thats life I guess. Feels like they could of done a few Halloween hostile hunts today, maybe even a Heavy Hitter SLB with some Halloween story behind it. Maybe a one part Halloween mission....something....anything besides a spend SLB and a heroic SMS. From the bottom of my empty candy bucket heart Scopley......you're tone def, losing touch and showing bad form.
Well said Hightone, this heroic event is crapā¦..seems points are a bit off
Nothing says cheap better than Scopely chucking in old avatars š¤£
Why must every material spend event be heroic?
Super nice event to win officers who are 95% outdated or useless
More, you will only get a very few per pull...
So investing 10m in the SMS/SLB ? ?
That's crap, that's so ridiculous that i'm laughing when i see this stupidity.
At least you could have made some new avatars & frames...
but no, old ones..why asking to create new ones when we can recycle our work each years...
shame event
shame rewards
shame avatars
shame frames
You are spitting on the community with those type of things and milking us with more and more flash BPass, season battle pass or more and more and more P2W content
I was looking at STFC in the play store - where's the 0.99 packs located?
Best Halloween event ever scopes!
Spend spend spend said Scopleyā¦. Better pay to Winā¦. So unfair you canāt compete in the Scopley greed eventā¦
the rewards are good, i got about 30k syndicate rep from the halloween event. However a spend event for the last day is trash.
š incursion on monday if that is true, wanna know what you are smoking
It would be nice if they gave a chance to redeem any left over halloween items from last years event. Plus a holiday event should be simple and fun. Not everyone has refined stuff to spend especially when there was already one recently
or give us a way to trade in all old currency instead of just letting it sit in our inventory....
So, apparently swarms done drop loot anymore
normal if you've already killed 2000 hostiles since kill reset, which is 1 hour after dailies reset.
š first time I have done that. I guess I have finished playing for the day.
Just for scopleys feed back. I had 3 ships autogrinding xp.
3 ships will do that, stick to 2 and you can usually do some dailies/normal grind too.
will this frame share the same fate as the happy new year 2023 avatar??? š
Where did you even get that I don't see it anywhere in any of my events
there is no event for this frame. thats why i asked, if it shares the same fate with the happy new year 2023 avatar, which also had no event but is still there...
Ahh. Yeah, seems like we are destined to be left forever wanting, lol
The frame is in the $100 flash pass in the store
thank you Scopely, what a great idea š¤¦š¤¦āāļøš¤¦āāļøš¦ā¹ļøš”
Is it really?
Makes sense, of course it is, where else would they put it? Forget when they used to do fun events with achievable goals for EVERYONE. And everyone got the fun, holiday themed stuff. lol
so go straight for the 9.99 pass unlock and you can never get it?
Scopely Halloween event = Bend over and spell run.
This is the most pathetic Halloween event for a game I have ever seen.
No new officers, avatars, frames, or anything even remotely Halloween themed.
At least they didn't charge $100 for the spidertribble
30K syndicate rep! Wow. Hold the presses!
Not.
supposedly this year's avatar and frame were in the most expensive flash pass pack.
can't confirm, as the option if deleted is you pay the more sensible 9.99 flash pass.
isn't it the cutsey spider in the ALB?
Just a frame, not both
So epic, so rewarding. WOW /sarcasm
What a beautiful event you created where someone can make a brand new alliance in the last five minutes and snag 2 of the top 4 spots for max rewards and minimal effort š real clutch
Please please make the rewards for faction hunt ops level specific. Factions credits received now are pathetic
Even more amazing, we get the cutesy spider Halloween 2023 avatar... on November 1st... Scopely timing?
Battle pass event says retrieving but never loads
for how long is this Faction Event thing gonna be "Retrieving..."?
It looks like all events are currently glitched
Retrievingā¦Retrievingā¦Retrievingā¦
Retrieve this 
i mean ...
even these say just "Retrieving..."
You know good community management would be someone from Scopely responding here saying weāre looking into it. But hey what do I know š
For the level my syndicate is it was pretty nice. You don't have to be a dbag about it.
Still only āRetrievingā for battle pass (though itās pretty obvious) and Faction Hunt (where points for hostile levels would be very helpful?)
Retrieving issue as well. The actual event is for alliance help and contribution. šš»šš¼š
Will do the retrieving after Defence.. Battlepass points
Faction hunt is also retrieving, even after clearing localization. Server 100 players have same issue.
so....incursions, yay or nay? @wanton copper
thank you for all of that officer xp, though, tbf.
i'm finally able to promote a key officer or few. āŗļø
Can we please get official notice of when Incursions are starting? - We sholdnt be hearing they are coming as a rumour from RevDeuce
I know Scopely is making lots of changes to the game but this lack of consistency on an event that's meant to be Monthly makes it impossible to plan for and will drive down participation.
Yeah, for an event that was meant to be twice monthly and the primary source of the relays needed to upgrade a bldg. The lack of success of even running the event is astounding. I think they haven't run incursions more than they have.
They should ust kill the event. I used to love incursions, but two big changes ruined it for me - @wanton copper has heard these from many players, I am sure:
-
When they removed base defense kills as a scoring metric in some of the events, it soured the thing for non-whales. Setting up a good base defense and having people think they got you and blowing up was fun and scored great points. You ran some risk as a 60 can pop anything, but it was fun. Plus it motivated me to be unshielded while raiding and participating, knowing that I was scoring points and could repair.
-
The addition of this recent base killing prime further sours the same concept. Now someone with a multi-level prime can stop my entire base and fleet from firing for two rounds, most likely resulting in being cracked immediately in many cases where that would not occur before.
Why would I risk my rss for a non-scoring metric when scopely has stacked it against me? Base defense was a fun mechanic in the event, and for many players the only real motivation to engage in it. They want us to play pvp, but give no rewards for it in general, and do zero balancing of it. They could do better, but influencing rage spend seems to be the only motivator for the pvp formats they use, little do they know that if they truly balanced pvp and made it engaging, spend would most certainly end up higher overall and less in spurts. But thats just my opinion.
Could you say the second part again but louder? I don't think Scopely has heard that part yet.
Oh they heard it, they are just to ignorant to believe it š
Hey 30K in syndicate XP, I feel is good at any level. I'll take some of that.
If you're going to make the Apex armada event a consistent thing, you need to improve the spawn rate of the armada targets. Pretty much every apex system in 15 is devoid of targets other than 45 epics and has been for a while now.
@wanton copper @icy cairn come on and fix the emada respawn times. There is no reason a lvl 50 person should be running lvl 33 emadas for this event.
Making Apex weekly killed any interest and enthusiasm I have in running those armadas at this point. As soon as I get my Mudd to M160 my Stella will be parked indefinitely.
So any else think the servers are going to crash and burn with all three doing incursions at the same time!
Yes, weakponyfan
lol
so the adjustments to incursions are....that there are no adjustments? running regions concurrently isn't an adjustment. different events is.
I don't have many rocks to throw, living in my Jets fan glass house
who decided it's a good idea to run incursions from 5PM till 9AM? 16 hours instead of 24, half of them is when people sleep and no chance to catch up anymore in the morning?
š©
@icy cairn do you all not think about lat rush event and how that will be effected during incursion this coming Monday? Come on. Please stop doing incursion. It has become a joke.
given the horrible lag tonight (seriously 45 - 60 seconds just to load a system, armada starts 30 seconds after the button is pushed, timeouts etc) incursions is going to be an absolute nightmare. if tonight is any indication, might be a good idea to skip it and fix some stuff you broke instead.
they also made them shorter.
night only in europe...
Is this guy bothering you ? š§
fantastic (sarcastic), incursion event during latinum event, how is anyone supposed to mine latinum during this event, again, fantastic, great thinking
Since our merger, space is crowded especially with events such as apex. The spawning of new armadas is slow and we have too many people trying to do armadas, so it takes longer to get them completed.
And don't say we are monitoring the merge situation because if you were it would be obvious that we need more armada locations, faster spawning times and more systems.
At least it is a challenge! Note that this incursion will stop earlier so with a bit of luck you can complete after...
incursions on a weekday? Booooo
You won't get rich mining latinum
Yea the grand totals may be lower than normal for sure a chance for a dark horse to pull a win lol
Clarifying question... What time zone is the announcement referring to when they say it's from 11am to 3am?
Disregard, I think this was sort of answered in the Incursion feedback channel.
Who cares about the lat rush event. Rewards are poor and its so easy to complete. I'd rather have incursions every monday then the lat rush event.
Server 13's Trek care about lat rush. This is their favorite event. I'm not being sarcastic, they absolutely love and live for mining Mondays.
@stone marsh well perhaps the added pvp aspect will be a fun new challenge!
No, they don't like pvp. I'm not sure there are phasers or photon torpedoes installed on their ships.
There gonna have a bad day on Monday.
Really wish the frequency of Incursions on Workdays would stop. A hostile Hunt this weekend, then that on the beginning of a workday week is just so dumb.
No Incursions anymore. It's So easy.
@fierce ravine almost all the whale players in the game would vote the other way on that issue. Is most likely why they continue to work on it
Try being an Admiral of an alliance trying to make sure your members are where they are supposed to be. Incursion sucks.
Then made Pvp Server and Let the Rest of Galaxy in Peace.
Its a shame that no one at Scopely cares, because this here is the truth.
Iām amazed at how many people love mining Monday! Come on itās a load of rubbish, the rewards are trash, the event is now fixed to those that buy/brought the whip. Donāt get me wrong the rewards in incursions are totally trash too the best thing about this run of incursions is most of Europe will be asleep as it starts Monday evening & finishes Tuesday morning, if you have a family & a job you will totally miss it š
Latinum Event š
Oh now you make a SLB event to gain actual shards instead of 4k of needed 4.8k tokens?! Seriously $copley you test my patience!!!! š”
#sickOfAuctions
Dear Scopley-Team,
to put it kindly: how do you come up with the idea of scheduling an event like Incursion on a normal working weekday?
It's not enough that you're now forcing players to take territories in the middle of the day every three months. Don't you think that's a bit excessive?
What THEY should do with mining Monday Is make place 20-100 drip whip partsā¦.
Another Ops 51-60 bracket for the Officer Auction, and without even a paired SMS. What a buncha bs šš¤¦āāļøšš
So the hard-core can raid the folks that forgot to shield-move and go to work. It's brilliant
Has anyone noticed yet the scoring is not ok for the spend armada token xslb?
Got this response from support
That's how it's supposed to be. You're not spending the 100 directives for a regular uncommon armada. Same applies when spending for the swarm aramdas.
XSLB scoring requires rare+ directives.
The ALB scores uncommon directives, but as they said, the pts you earn are scaled as well. The scoring card is showing you a shortcut scoring metric that's true for regular armadas, but isn't for discounted ones.
Incursions event bucket is broken @pastel hare @wanton copper
Bucket un-open able on Android
Jem Hadar solo armadas respawn way to slow for including in an event. Major flawed game design. Back to the drawing board Scopely!!!!! š
Lol, they never used one or seen one, wouldnāt be able to go back to it.
It's only a flawed design if there was no PvP in the game. Go blow up someone doing one then take theirs. Kill your competition
80k earnable and 90k for the overflow event⦠<@&509691205798592532>
<@&509691205798592532> also s130: no event for officer flash pass to finish the last milestone of the officer flash overflow card.
Server 109 the same
You can't make it up 
https://discord.com/channels/509679626763632640/971166351253209148 people posting over and over about the fpass go read there wasnāt supposed to be a fpass event today ata was the last they messed up the points obviously š¤¦š»āāļø
There is still today's event to go. It'll start in less than an hour.
Another Scopely blunder
I hope you are correct, otherwise this is blatant miss-selling and extremely underhanded, even for $copay!
Ok. Thank's a lot. We will wait. Happy playing. š»
why only on the bp event? especially when it's the last event of this bp?
<@&509691205798592532> No Battlepass event on 158 also
https://discord.com/channels/509679626763632640/971166351253209148 clearly states ata was the last fpass event though and was only 80k points to earn you wrote it yourself now your saying its delayed when we both know you guys are just adding and extra as someone got the point wrong š
Why is it so difficult to get the starting of events straight?
Its not like the timeshift never happened before.
You are so competent, aren't you?
I update that as the events pop. Wait for the next to start, and I'll update it again.
It is not a schedule, it is a tracker for those who want to know if they have done everything and received the correct pts.
not funny, tomorrow is incursion. would be nice if we could have finished our battlepass before it starts
Will drop at the top of the hour.
People are not thinking when it comes to DST. No everyone meaning countries and it states observes DST, so to keep everything inline those who do observe DST are just going to have be patient as well the UTC( universal time clock ) doesnāt account for DST either. It amazes me that this has to be explained every time we go through this.
DST change nothing in fact, dont know why scopely talk about
are you sure on that?
Yes.
No pass event may not be an error, it may be intentional ... $$olution ?
It's there. Domination event. Restart your app.
I thought it might have been a deception like this one :
(after this disgusting trap, I did not spent another dollar in this deceiving game)
Yeah. I didn't spend any money, nor did I spend any materials that weekend.
I seemed at first you could get it (hard but still) FTP... just to see that event after event you could not have it without spending. It was definitely a trap to FORCE $$ spending. I totally boycott the store since. This practice is dishonest and utterly disgusting .
Tell us you don't understand daylight savings time without telling us š¤£
It only happens twice a year, don't worry š¬
I couldn't agree with you more. It's heart breaking Scopely is trying their hardest to destroy the game. This player base complains about the never-ending bugs and snafus, but sticks with the game because of our love for Star Trek and the real friendships we've made over the past five years. It's really sad how Scopely abuses us.
im keeping my acutal abusive thoughts about the game developers to myself but will say publicly that they need developers who are actually star trek fans themselves and play the game themselves as well to understand our collective frustrations
Will there be a BattlePass event for today? Should be one last one to complete the event.
at least 6 times a year, with this game being affected at least 4 times a year for most players.
relaunch or reopen the game and then check
Got the event thanks!
Not just ftp annoy I finished the stupid sms and was 400 tokens short before Cat expired, so I felt āforcedā to buy the missing tokens (missed/didnāt see the hidden tokens in syndicate event) to gain the missing 20x shards for unlock, or miss out on her⦠few days later, oh look sheās in the mat spend event with actual shards! Donāt mind repay the game for the fun in some dark times over last 4.5 years, but they really crossing a line last months, even by their standards! -.-
Yes bring ftp players to the final syndicate event which was IMPOSSIBLE to complete enough to get 400 tokens without buying (even with upgrdes/pass etc... ) This is a disgusting way to try to FORCE people to pay by presenting a seemingly possible ftp event... I did not pay and will not pay a cent anymore as I feel betrayed and despised.
So... who's ever overseen this arc's BP & BP overflow has an issue with math, specifically with basic algebra.
Finished everything including the overflow BP and yet..š
the BP main event has still points to be acquired. Ain't that a joke?
So you want an overflow for the overflow or for them to avoid giving extra pts?
Why does this incursion start 1 hour before event reset like every other incursion! My oponion is Monday not the good day for incursion. you can nearly forget Latium monday if you don't have Feeshe whip
Because the VIPs wanted to have targets. That is all this is for. The VIPs. Odds are folks will still have miners out preloaded for mining Monday, and that late notice they gave the rest of us (they told the VIPs a week before they told the rest of us, and had Rev not spilled the beans, I am sure they would not have said squat) was to ensure fodder for the VIPs enjoyment. My plan is to do an sms or two, then shield and play something else. I am not rewarding the entitlement and deceitful bs that scopy is putting out.
This is enough to make me quit, I live for the latinum rush, now youāve gone and ruined it! This game is my only escape from my blind and paralyzed existence ( yes I have special software that allows me to play by voice and hearing)
Hi Team general suggestions for improvement
- mining dalies .... should be able to raid other mining ships towards the same daily goal... either mine or raid it.
2 ) remember the star trek movies where captains were beam to the other ships..... player vs player general ship attacks should give a % chance of obtain characters shards for winning pvp battles based on the characters on the ship you battled... this would encourange more general battles example attack ship B ... ship B had 8 character on the bridge and below deck.... winning gives 10% chance to collect 1 shard of below deck 5% chance of 1 shard from captains crew
Im missing 5k battlepass points for last milestone of overflow. Cant find anything in store. Is there any way to get them!?
Unusual that you don't see the offer, but I don't know the reqs so maybe not.
Having now multiple tabs for the events have had made me miss something to finish.
Monotary wise a good decision to get more ppl buying packs, but its still a d*ckmove imho...
i miss 5K too, wraiting ticket and now wait for answer
This may sound sarcastic but I'm being genuine. I love that incursions is happening on a day where there is no BP or Flash pass or any other event that I have to do. So I can get my dailies done early for the day, throw up a 1 day shield and go enjoy my life.
What if we combined a mining event with a PvP event?
@wanton copper @icy cairn just my monthly complaint that no one except a very small number like incursions yet y'all continue to force it. Make is interesting besides just raiding those people that thought they shielded and went on vacation. Instead do something fun like who can mine the most lat on the opposing side and who can kill the most dvors on the other
<@&509690795536941056> I was hoping for an update on the incursion store to include FC Janeway and perhaps the new St officers. But nope. There's nothing of value in the store for me.
Be careful what you wish for, weāve had Franklin pvp events for incursion in past. It was an awful event and very poorly designed as well.
24 hours to get this pittance of a reward, no thanks, My time is worth more than that, I prefer not to play during this ongoing invasion
16 hours š
Would be cool if we could actually play the game during incursions. Unfortunately the game crashes or disconnects every 30-60 seconds and wonāt let you look in any systems.
jo... some feedback here: having incursions for all three server groups on the same day is a dumb idea... my designated pvp system for the SMS event as defender is Yoruba... my ships need about 1min40sec from where my base is... when I look inside the system to see if there are any targets within my pvp capabilities and then I launch a ship - during the travel time I see no ship movement in the system whatsoever... but once my ship arrives in the system, the data for the system is being updated and out of nowhere there are either 5 more ships all way too powerful for me or all ships were killed by other ships from my server and those appear out of nowehre... and on top of that I can't move my ship after it reaches the system cause when I target a ship or just another location in the system it says that my ship is still at warp for up to 30 sec and then all of the sudden my ship is dead and I have a battle report in my logg without ever seeing a ship moving towards me or seeing my ship in combat (or getting an incomming attack warning for that matter - those show up way after the fight as per usual) ... also my ship got stuck and the only option to make it unstuck was to blow 20 server switch token to switch to in the invading server and back again... server 187 APAC
To score in PvP, loosing OR winning, you have to be on the Rival server.....So.....open systems are pointless for both sides....well done Scopely. š
incorrect ... there are multiple events... for the SMS event you need to be in the right system and on the right system (either on your own server if you have to deal damage as defender - or on the other server if you have to deal damage as invader) ... then there is a SLB event where you also have to deal damage either as defender or as invader which determins on what server you have to do this - but any system is valid for this event... and then there are the two XSLB events (raid rss and score pvp wins) and for these two events it doesn't matter what server or what system
Not sure why you keep running incursions, absolutely unbalanced and due to that, borning and just providing with negativity and bullying. Please, for the love of Q, get a bloody clue and start balancing stuff.
All it takes is one massively stocked unshielded base. The rest is boring af
340B vs 3.6T
what difference could a few Trillion make?
it seems fair to me š¤£
Can we please fix scoring? Lost to a D4... Nothing. No one in my alliance is scoring when a D4 is involved. Also, why is the vidar talios not on there? Been hit by some of those today and it's bad that I'm getting no points at all for my pvp hits.
you need to be on the other server and in a specific system in order to score in this particular event - Yoruba if you are ops 40+ ... Adelphi or Januu if you are ops 35-39
Do it on their server, like the event tells you to
Same on S9 not getting points for pvp
If your event is All Out Attack you have to get points on THEIR server, if your event is All Out Defense you have to get points on YOUR server, they really could have described that much more clearly but that's how it works.
And the most important rule
And a lot of lv 40s plus also in januu and adelphi
Hi ScOpElY! Your game lags, crashes, gives a ridiculous amount of errors. Thanks for incursions, they are fun, but your stuff needs to work.
hey Zabatiz, go back and read the even hes talking about it doesnt say anything about invader thats two different events -->
You mean the first paragraph of the description that says "on their server"?
I know I could go and do a ticket and one fo the questions is what are you doing when the error occurs and what is suppose to do. Well the answer is anything. Want to navigate between viewing systems, want to open manage of a ship, want to repair, want to open a store, want to scan a ship, want to select a ship to scan it....lol Any of these things and pretty much anything else and the game lags for one, gives an error, or just crashes. How do I show this in a screen shot? Well I could show the lovely "your internet connection has been lost" error screen. You know I didn't used to lose internet connection on wifi. Makes me think it's an error msg that will pop up to pass the buck of where the problem is. Like the game is having a problem but we'll just blame your internet connectin cuz, who can prove otherwise.
when is this incursion event due to end? i.e. when is the last chance to use the 100% loot exocomps during this incursion?
8h 35m remaining as of this message
thanks sorted š
Scopely needs to figure out how to freaking code. Getting tired of having my base in permanent battle where I can not repair anything without first having to reboot the game. This is ridiculous. #IncursionsAreStillAllBorkedUp š¤£
Scopely needs to work on their math. Losing to a Kelvin 3 times in pvp system should be enough to finish event. Iām still 87k short. Stop adding a little bit to the milestones.
Stop making the Higher Ops PVP systems ones that cant be viewed externally.. Use the darn systems with Borg or the one Klingon Armada's that can be viewed in the higher warp space. The lack of ability to see those systems severely lessens the PVP action.
The new incursion format hurt the late night players even more than it used to. 24 hours was fair, but this one basically spanned my sleep/ work hours then ended.
How about rotating start and end times so people with different hours can actually participate?
it's not a new format as such, just shortened due to the timing (maintenance day), I imagine we'll be back to full 24hr next run
Same goes for server 90. I was never able to even launch a ship due to crashes, restarts, and spinning wheels of death.
Ah see, I assumed this was so neither Incursion nor maintenance messed up territory takeovers, a good thing considering the territory BP
naaaah, incursions can mess up TC however much they like... usually you fight against your own server, now you have to fend off a different server, it's still a pvp event regardless š
Like the evil ducks from the famous flood "Two animals of each type to be saved"
Ducks go, we usually swim down here __, now we'll just swim up here ---
Greetings,
I was just reviewing the new arc info and I was surprised to see another new ship, which means another new grind!!
Have you not understood that this is not expected and I, personally, would like that you focus on bug fixing and game delay issues. Btw, I know that there are a lot others that have the same opinion..
I play the game on PC and a LAN connection and it responds slowly and I do see sometimes the yellow icon or the red one for connectivity but only ingame.
Adding a new ship every arc would be feasible if you would take out the spending limitations in game and that would allow a player to upgrade a ship at it's own convenience and not wait 1 day, 2 days..7 days to get a few more upgrade parts.
In that regard, another Apex Event has completed without any changes from your side - remove spending limits and provide alternatives to spend 40K chips; my initial post can be viwed here - #š¬-events-feedback message
Now about the latest incursion - the fact that lasted less was good but the PVP brackets!!!! At OPS 42, I can be easily pwned by OPS 55 or OPS 60 players, without any chance; No matter that I've maxed pvp research, no matter that all ships have pvp crews!!!
A similarity to this is "taking a leak against the wind", you still wet your shoes, no matter what!@wanton copper , @icy cairn , @pastel hare you are all gamers, how happy do you think anyone playing the game is when the above happens?? Can you limit the PVP brackets to -5/+5??
Just a curiosity, do you even play the game, as normal players or have the devs provisioned you with special accounts?
And, in the end, can you start listening to player feedback and act upon it??
Btw, the new arc name is epic, so "Make it So"!!
Yours, might not be for long,

Hi, in the event today I had a galaxy defence one that required me to kill certain ships, and I got 2x xp for killing those ships in certain systems. I played for at least 10 hours today and didn't see a single one of these ships from the other server, let alone kill one of them. For context, in the other galaxy defense event I came second I basically killed everyone from the other server I saw. The incursion was fun! But finishing the event on 0 points after a full day pvping is a bit frustrating
Please don't bypass the automod, use a different word if it is blocking something you wrote.
thank you, did not have the inspiration this time but will keep it in mind (LE found the inspiration, ty again!!)
more downtime events pls
They ended incursions hours early for the maintenance, which they ended up extending for 2 hours.. Many of us were relying on playing this morning to hit milestones and rank up. God knows I was! So much for getting subspace relays and incursion credits!
I believe the overall Incursions event rewards were lame. I blew thousands of repair wrenches, shields & speed ups for this? Garbage!
If you haven't the special ships, it's a very good event store. If you have them then yes it may be less worth. Especially for the ST officers' devaluation caused by Freeman.
I like the +100% to drops exo tho.
If you would just stop it with these damned INCURSION events, you wouldn't have to shut down the whole game for useless and extended maintenance.
HERE, HERE!!!
So because of Incursion event, server got shut down now for useless and extendend maintenance? Pretty mind blowing this š¤£
Is like saying, @queen kindle stop playing STFC atm, because of you they cannot round up the maintenance š¤£
You know it's bad enough that once a month our Lat Rush gets screwed up with a 4 hour game update. Now it's getting worse running incursions at the same time. This needs to stop. Pick either another day to run incursions, as well as the update, or pick a different day to do Lat Rush.
Ah, is this just to get ready for the next arc? In that case, the timing of this event is bad, Because of its difficulty level, Incursions shouldn't be scheduled just prior to arcs when maintenance is always required. INCURSIONS is still an awful event for someone who enjoys regular daily gameplay.
It could be much much better and likeable if they would keep players in tighter brackets. How the hell is a level 38 player supposed to defend against a level 52 player? There's literally no chance the level 38 can get PVP wins.
The purpose of this Incursion was besides a little fun for players, also for testing. Since today is maintenance and Arc update I assume the info from this test was needed.
I have been preaching for a +/- 5 in PvP for yearsā¦. I have even offered up a handicap system to make it feasible for a 42 to defend against a 60. But they will never change. Not sure if itās a money thing, lazy thing or incompetent issue. But itās not changing. Now go be fodder!!
It's most definitely a money/greed thing, but I also think there's some brainwashing going on. By forcing the PVP issue, they want us to learn to be okay with taking something we want from those who cannot defend. After all, if the big players do it to us, why not go after the ones we can win against? They want us to believe that whatever we want, no matter who owns it, is communal property. Except it's not right. It will never be right; and anyone with a conscience would only PVP on a level playing field.
By training our in game brains, I believe they hope to affect our behavior in real life.
You should see my experience on a satellite connection. It's awfully horrendous. Anytime I see a galaxy wide PVP event I cringe.
There were still takeovers yesterdayā¦
I was able to get this far in less than 2 hours after not being able to mine during incursions. If it wasn't for thr extended downtime, I could have completed the event
It would appear you guys forgot to load any events or bp.
I think they spent the extra maintenance time debating how to best screw up this month's arc launch
Event reset is in 53m. Some are starting out of sync due to DST.
I only have one Daily Event and no Events
I can see the holodeck missions but it will not let me open or claim any of them on my PC or Android phone. I also have no events daily or otherwise.
was a pretty easy win this time around. no one else was mining ;p
Were you aware Daylight Saving Time ended for the whole server not just half of the Events? Three daily resets is tad awkward particularly with ālimitedā events overwriting 12h dailies.
Best launch ever LOL
Wouldn't be an arc rollout without events... oh wait, yes it is!
Where are the other factions?
No romcoms today
you guys are getting events?
I have Rom & Kln but am missing Feds
EU118 no events showing, no battle pass showing.......
Guess its time to bubble up for 24-48 hours and see if the games going to be worth coming back to....
I hope it is a bug not even 100 rare g5 ore in premium battle pass in the last steel ms???? The event rewards also getting more and more worse... most are not even worth to spend time for and they dont help to progress. Since how many arc we dont get any steel and ore , gas etc in the event rewards?? They take more and more stuff away ...... 124 rare ore in full premium tree š¤¦
zero events so far - another epic launch - best ever
scopely rolled their clocks too far
Still no events
Scopley could you give us the option to give you money in the form of the new BP? We've heard you love money a lot.
(EU108 no events at all)
Any info on missing events
It was 53 min long ago. Did you make sure to feed the hamsters that are running the server wheels?
No battle pass or events still.
All events are now BORG - no events for you lol
I got a sexy new avatar. woo hoo!
Yes Iāll spend millions of pounds just for an avatar frameā¦
lets take 2 extra hours of maintenance just to make sure the new amazing ARC doesn't actually launch....smh
Yeah Iād like to give some feedback, alas there are no events⦠I guess that cuts down on bugsā¦..
Donāt have those events
holodeck not giving missions
@pastel hare welcome to the dumpster fire that is scopely.
thanks for the welcome š
Any info when they fix the Battlepass? Way to much ship bps but drastically cut down loot
No faction rep event, no bp, no events at all. Another smooth arc launch for Scopley.
I miss the days when we had our favorite event "Retrieving" ahh the good old days
Aww retrieving... The event where you could guess the event.. still better then this
@vagrant topaz @wanton copper going get any update on why absolutely nothing is working? No holo deck, no battle pass, no events, no faction rep events and more! Server 40 and more!
They could at least put out an announcement or something.
They are in a conf room trying to figure out how to blame the players
scopely
@wanton copper New feature?
That isn't really fair, although they haven't always communicated quickly and effectively, they've never "blamed the players".
Just stop paying money on this game for the next few Months and it will start working better and faster again. With all the money everyone spends they know they can do what they want
LOL have you contacted "Customer Support" it's never Scopleys fault - maybe you are just lucky
I presume the exborg dailies not working is known? Add to the list the scrapper is broken too, lol
Somethingās missing
Test and Dev servers - just saying
I can totally understand the BP event since the rewards were not correct. That at least makes sense.
They are a myth and don't exist
