[bitter field]

Ne exo seriously sucks - the comp is not even close to what I lost by not having the exo.

[zenith wing]

the comp includes "the exo will be running again before the next incursion"

[outer prawn]

re: Attack Pattern Tango
A PVP event that forces the use of a ship that's ops locked at every upgrade is fundamentally unfair and frustrating. Since everyone uses the same crew, it truly is a matter of "higher level wins" every single time.

[short girder]

For the love of Christ almighty scopely, use the information from this event. Put the losers against the losers and the winners against the winners for next time. At least that way, the losers aren't always losing

[fluid gust]

different people have been using different pvp crews, and forbidden tech.
I've punched up a few times, from having beter iso defence or a pvp crew that happened to have a situational advantage.

with pic-worf/garak/dukat i easily beat a higher level player who had the freeman crew.
i doubt it was his lack of FT.

[lyric cipher]

My borg cube in Yoruba she was killed 4 times, but I have 2,310M points, which is not divisible by 338. Someone here can't count. Had to go a fifth time to finish the event.

[zenith wing]

the "lose to" scores by what ship killed you, not what ship you were killed in.

[noble furnace]

Cannot say I agree with that, not using freeman crew and still beating higher tier talios with Freeman crew

[soft atlas]

Tc event in the middle of an incursion? Nice one scopely!

[lyric cipher]

That comes out. I don't attack in any incursion event because there is almost never a player I can beat, but that's just a detail. And most importantly, every other player can kill me, just a level up. When I looked at the battlelog with a player 8 levels higher, I didn't even have a shot in him and I was killed after the fifth shot. Well, instead of 4 repairs, one more. I only saw one in this one and I won't disturb the shield because of it.

[vagrant topaz]

So you took down the archer store but people had until reset to finish the event—how were we supposed to magically spend those in time?

[haughty edge]

Borg cube event is a waste. Cube respawn time is an epic fail on scopleys end

[light canyon]

Where the heck is the lvl 38 expansion cube all I have ever found for those are 42’s. Also what happened to the ticketed events that always come on the weekends?

[molten marlin]

ticket events run during arcs, we're in between arcs and expansion cubes are group armadas for the talios. You kill a solo borg sphere armada for a buff, and then group up to kill the cube

[light canyon]

That doesn’t answer the question on where lvl 38 expansion cubes are!! The list states there is a lvl 38 expansion cube yet I haven’t found any of those

[molten marlin]

They start in Toz Raghli, directives come from doing solos

[light canyon]

I know that. What I’m pointing out is event states there are lvl 38 expansion cubes, yet lowest I have ever seen or. Found of these are lvl42’s which unless you have a group in mid 40’s or higher with Talios maxed at there lvl and gone after the buffs you’ll never beat a lvl 42

[molten marlin]

literally just told you the system they're in

[light canyon]

Ok no wonder I couldn’t find it it doesn’t have the same gas field as the other two so it looked just like normal romulain space. Thanks for the info. Scopley needs to fix the system so you can tell it’s borg . Been waisting expansion tokens because of it.

[fluid gust]

expansion cube systems never have the cloud, but are always a dead end system connected to a borg solo system.
so you can go do a solo, and then immediately go to the next system over for expansion cubes.

[warm blaze]

The xindi aquatic crusier are the biggest fail ever.... it feels math isnt a skill of scopely when it isnt about money .... how can i have 9 fails in a row because the heavy gun fire in round 1 if it should be only 30% 🤔

[queen kindle]

It is extremely unlikely to happen, and I'd recheck the battle logs if it is is the 5th gun that actually kills you each time.

[warm blaze]

Of course it is the 5th gun already has raised a ticked and send the screens but support is not helpful as almost and just said i should try lower hostiles 🤦‍♂️and it can happen it is still 30% 🤦. I am not alone others have the same problem....

Even if it makes 0 sense i tried from 57 down to 40 but as written the result is the same , the heavy gun kill my nx in round 1

[kind cobalt]

I noticed that Voyager ship parts disappeared from the scoring criteria of the Upgrade Voyager SLB, at least for my bracket. intended? or bug? Even if most people in my (upper G5) bracket would have it maxxed by now, seems an odd choice to exclude upgrading voyager from the scoring criteria of an Upgrade Voyager SLB

[molten marlin]

325k toxins is easy and no where near 300k hostiles

[sterile lance]

You're ruined if your chest was claimed before event refresh today..

[meager sigil]

Sorry my fault! 🤣

[molten marlin]

AMS, not solo. Your entire alliance contributes, if you can't get enough people to kill 2k hostiles between an entire alliance then you need to make some changes

[strong anchor]

Just unlocked Rearys and… no hostiles? Exception error title? Unable to summon 8472s?
Restarted, same problem. Cleared localization, same problem.

Then one ship appeared across the system. I targeted it, shifted to galaxy view, got the title error again, went back to system view, and that one hostile was gone. But my ship attacked it, and I scored. But the hostiles are not visible and I’m unable to summon!
This is gonna make these Voyager events difficult.

[queen kindle]

There've been many reports of broken systems in the DQ. I'd try a different one.

[soft agate]

Thank you for listening to the feedback on the upgrade voyager event and giving us a second scoring option for those with maxed voyagers

[molten marlin]

Would've preferred a different method after all the armada events they threw at us

[fluid gust]

is that only for fully maxed voyagers?
that seems unfair...

I'm ops locked for the next... 7 ops levels, no way I'm getting there in 2 days.
research is also ops locked.

[soft agate]

Dunno.. but imo should have been a secondary option for all as it makes it imbalanced for reason you just said

[steady roost]

Hello, I ask, I have already gathered the 4000 broken rods, where can I exchange them, so I can open the nonsense?

[molten marlin]

recruit section

[manic estuary]

What ever happened to borg meta event? Once again missing which makes the Mega Cube this is all named after pretty meaningless.

[fluid gust]

also, the reward for immune response is terrible...

200 commerce tokens?
i can get at least 800 from the amount of fuel i waste to get the biotoxins by going after cubes instead.

[steady roost]

I can't find that option to exchange the broken bars.

[scenic flint]

Welp, I'm not going to be able to score in this event all since my timer won't reset until after the event ends. Why run a 2 day event on a chest that has a 3 day cooldown?

[molten marlin]

They made the event visible so you could prepare for that

[scenic flint]

I didn't see the 2 day timer for it. It should have been a 3 day timer. Also the FB showing the calendar shows a 3 day event.

All the events are showing 2 days vs the calendar posted showing 3 day. Scopely at their finest...

[halcyon fiber]

The calendar shows what's portraied ingame tbh.
Starts today, tomorrow the entire day, ends the day after. 48h over 3 days.

Day 1: 18 - 0
Day 2: 0 - 0
Day 3: 0 - 18

This time it's your inability to understand the calendar

[ebon tide]

Ridicules that the voyager SLB event is not properly ops tiered.
Put ops 42s vs 43+s where the former are ops locked on research and upgrades is just disgusting. On top only top 10 get anything the rest the middle finger..

Why not just cha ge it to a P2P event! Clearly what's going on there.

[fluid gust]

that's not how they ever do calendars/dates.
all the 48 hour events on the last battlepass event calendar had them on the day they started, and the day after.
never 3 days.

[midnight summit]

I will post this here now. How can I complete this event if I am level locked? I am a 37, but cannot upgrade my Voyager until i get to level 39. Not well thought out scopely.

[jagged axle]

what's up with making the biotoxin redemption event a day shorter than the cooldown, so those who redeemed yesterday can't get points oni the event?

[toxic kindle]

This has been mentioned countless times. "Voyager Events (A Wounded Animal) - 3/3 - 3/5
(Note: The Voyager Events are already viewable in-game, so you can plan accordingly.)" #⭐-official-announcements message Those that redeemed yesterday didn't read the announcement two days ago.

[ripe otter]

Hmmm, "A Wounded Animal: Upgrade Voyage - SLB" is undoable unless I take out a 2nd Mortgage on my house in order to buy the packs to rush from OPS 44 to OPS 51 in order to get the single component needed to go from T7 to T8! I guess it really is a Money Grab!!

[jagged axle]

I play the game, not announcements.

[molten marlin]

Then you would've clearly seen the bucket for the event for the week

[jagged axle]

I did see it, but i just figured that the events would be long enough. I thought wrong.

[cedar lily]

It s possible that scopely used that as part of the game mechanic but more likely that they didn't think about it lol

[toxic kindle]

Not really fair to Scopely for you to come here and try to martyr yourself like that though. Might not be a great event, but you obviously have access to their discord where they make official announcements.

[fluid gust]

3/3 - 3/5 that's how they used to indicate a 3 day event.

[jagged axle]

Not trying to be a martyr, I came on here to express to scopely that I'm not pleased with how they did this particular event. If I don't express my frustration, how are they supposed to learn?

[fluid gust]

@full swan you've caused a bit of confusion with the event schedule i think.
in all previous announcements dates would be based only on the days on which the event cycle would start.
if an event ended at reset on a day, that day would not be included.

so 3/3 - 3/5 would mean the event would go for the 24 hour event periods starting on the 3rd, 4th, and 5th of march.

you include the day on which the event ends on event reset.
for people in the US that means they think they can still participate on the 5th, but by the time they wake up it may already have ended.

[junior fern]

If you devs are going to run Hirogen centric evvent tasksm you need to increase the number of Hirogen units available to hit. And please make the name of them visible when zoomed out. YOu have too few Hirogen targets to hit for far too many players.

[spare island]

Worst event ever

[arctic crater]

@wanton copper here in 201, we're getting a bit 'meh' with the lack of inspiration when it comes to Incursion rewards, Many have said that they don't bother turning up just because those 5 avatars that everyone has now probably got, are as much use as Carol Marcus being an Epic officer...

Anyhoo, my actual question -are we going to see APAC servers being able to meet new challenges in the future, instead of going around the same 5 over and over and over again (one of which has more or less become a graveyard it's that dead).

[novel mango]

You shouldn’t need an outside app to know what’s coming in the game.

[lethal jasper]

I'm fairly certain its going to be impossible for me to finish the voyager biotoxin exchange event. and I havent been turning them in either since the event was shared what, 5 days ago? I'll be lucky to have enough to finish the first tier of it, honestly. its definitely not made for most to be able to finish it... not really cool...

[molten marlin]

3 full pull finishes the sms

[lethal jasper]

I wont have enough for 3 full pulls. I have a maxxed voyager for my level, as much research as I can do for it at my level, and I'm properly crewed for hunting the bioships. its highly unlikely it will give me enough to do that within 2 days. and thats including what I've saved since the event was shared days ago. the only way might be spending or rushing to another ops level, which would be typical scopely, I guess...

[toxic kindle]

My response was to a person on this discord complaining about communication. I don't disagree with you, but you get my point?

[icy marsh]

Anyone else noticed that the mats distribution is rewards is heavily penalize gas needs? Both nx event and voyager event (an explorer too!) Pay out ore and crystal. Neither pays out any gas. I been noticing this trend very frequently. Why is there hardly ever any gas events compared to the other.

[molten marlin]

In this case, you didn't, because the event was visible all week. Specifically so people could prepare for it.

[novel mango]

Yeah I can see your point.

[novel mango]

I am talking in general. Yes I was aware of this event in game. That is how it should be done.

[last lance]

Or skip it altogether, as the rewards for it are two commerce insignia. You can go to the borg systesm there and summon, they have a 30% chance to drop the same thing. 10-12 summons and you will get more commerece insigna than the event pays out.

[lethal jasper]

right? I thought about that too, lol

[celest edge]

Never received any Incursion exocomps after the announcement. Checked multiple times in both free gifts & exocomp system. Did anyone else receive theirs? Referring to exocomps - sorry

[queen kindle]

Lots did, I think there were 600 in there.

[celest edge]

The extra loot exocomp is something we plan weeks to use

[fresh frost]

The comp didn't have the exocomps, it had the coins to buy them... I'm guessing you skimmed the announcement, that said they'll be bringing the exocomp store back once they fix the bug?

[queen kindle]

You will not receive exos. We will get a window to use the exo store when it is fixed. The coins you got will be used to buy the exos from there.

[celest edge]

So, basically we're still waiting for items in a store that should've been available directly after the event? And it's on us to check the event stores daily to see when that happens? I guess Scopely doesn't care if we participate or receive goodies, as long as we spend. I won't be participating in further Incursions events then.

[lapis perch]

Why no faction hunt again this month?

[queen kindle]

The incursions consumable store is where you normally buy exos to use during incursions. The store was broken in the last run. You are waiting on them to fix the store, and to give access to it. There's no need to check on the store, there'd be an announcement when it's planned.

[celest edge]

We budget players wait weeks for this coin to stock up on faction messages. If they can't provide us with the expected mechanics/rewards for an event, I see no need to participate. Why should we players spend 12+ hours on an event (not to mention the repair speed ups & resources) when the event doesn't give us one of the two real rewards for doing so? Sure, SNW Una shards are nice, but she's already almost obsolete with Ent E Riker.

[queen kindle]

I think you're confusing event rewards with exos. You should have received all the event rewards from incursions as expected. There were not any widespread reports of no rewards.

[celest edge]

The hostile loot exocomp is one of the best "rewards" for playing during Incursions to begin with. So no, I'm not confused. I received the coins as you stated, but what good are they if we don't have the ability to purchase the exocomp?

[queen kindle]

They are working on fixing the store. Once it is fixed, we will have access to that "reward" to use, and we won't have to use them during incursions so it is safer.

[swift rain]

was there a posted reason why there's no faction hunt again? if i've missed it, please post the link again. many players, myself included, were waiting to tier ships based on this event. . in fact, i teach alliance mates to wait to tier ships for FH. thanks in advance

[queen kindle]

No reason has been given. I've escalated the player requests to have it run.

[quiet shale]

I say keep faction hunt out, when they don't run it, half the players start asking for it, yet when they do run it, the other half are complaining about it. Can't win so just replace it altogether is my opinion.

[queen kindle]

I've also noted that some players want it improved. 😃

[fiery forge]

Am I missing something? Like events?

[quiet shale]

It's the last day before new BP, you'll have plenty of those starting tomorrow.

[deep halo]

Another loop? No thanks

[full portal]

This new loop is for players 40+ lvl?

[red sinew]

38+

[edgy elk]

So this month they created another new grind loop to help make a grind loop easier?

[icy marsh]

this is the 3rd new grind loop in a month. utterly ridiculous

[mental plaza]

@wanton copper

[fresh frost]

Can you remember when the code went live last month? Pretty sure it was event reset...

[mental plaza]

Look, I believe it was released today, I would have to wait for the arc to begin, is that it?
https://home.startrekfleetcommand.com/news/https:--startrekfleetcommand.com-update-64-patch-notes

[fresh frost]

yeah, but the promo code they ran last month wasn't active until event reset, the difference is they didn't specify that this month.
I'm asking for clarification, but I'm assuming they would hold off things like warp tokens until the events that use them are present

I wouldn't expect the code to work for another 5 hours or so

[fluid gust]

the tokens are already available.

[eternal glen]

The code says I'm not eligible and I'm level 41.

[fluid gust]

i said tokens...

[eternal glen]

Yea I got those too I was just saying the code wasn't working yet.

[molten marlin]

Just like last time, not until the event is live.

[storm burrow]

How do u not watch star trek enterprise and get the officer ability wrong. Hosi. Comms officer. Good at helping get more artifacts and helping find ship weakness. Phlox is the doctor and pretty much kept the crew alive. So delay in damage or improving health. Like how does one get these officers wrong

[glossy sonnet]

I am level 29 and once again, like the Enterprise promo code, Scopley doesn't seem to think about how players not at the minimum level will feel. Those users may eventually get to that level, but they get nothing for being apart of the game during the launch time. This is once again... SAD! 🙈

[empty robin]

Yeah, the game clearly is designed to frustrate lower level players into spending money to be higher level...

[molten marlin]

how about looking at the announcment and seeing that the code isn't active until the arc events go live?

[olive ore]

Look forward to event store arcs but this month is rather disappointing unless there's more to be added.

• No NX-01, I can understand with it being brand new but had at least hoped
• No FTs - The rare purchase FTs have been around for a while now and no sign of them? Feels a bit disappointing, especially something like the whip which enables people to reduce the grind.
• No specialty ship skins - Armored Voyager, Feesha Glas, Mantis Apocrita are all a little older now, it wouldn't of hurt to introduce them

As it stands, it looks like I'll be spending all my currency on a single (Sanctus) cloak skin or just getting syndicate rep and monaveen parts, until I hit the arbitrary limit ofc. It just feels bad and makes me wonder about whether it's worth engaging with this arc or perhaps taking a month off and see how I feel.

Just really doesn't motivate me much.

[lean prawn]

What's up with ANOTHER new grind/loop? I said it was beyond ridiculous when they introduced the xindi grind and they need to put a full stop on introducing new ones. Then a month later they introduce another. I thought this year was supposed to be about quality over quantity. They are frustrating the $20-$100 a month spenders so much that people are going to start to leave the game in droves.

[lethal moss]

They have to add new loops to drive non spenders away, didn’t you know?! It’s only quality if you spend tons of money

[covert zephyr]

Okay folks. Event store is here. Why is the NX01 not in it?

[fierce belfry]

Consider adding cube bps and other ship skins to this arc's event store.

[silent crest]

The event store feels appalingly tiny

[lethal moss]

How are they supposed to to incentivize people to spend money?

[covert zephyr]

https://tenor.com/view/billionaires-poor-people-broke-people-poor-people-supporting-billionaires-supporting-billionaires-gif-15917204

[gusty robin]

Borg cube isn’t in the event store…

[dark topaz]

thats rediculious. 2 toke for silent enemy systems. 1 used to find out the enemy is to strong and the second is not enough to get enough points for the event. thx for nothing

[halcyon fiber]

looks like the Quantity removal part was from the event store.
Worst Eventstore to date

[dusty plinth]

The Store is not good. Absolutly not good ☹

[eternal glen]

The game has always released items for higher levels and I don't see this changing anytime soon. Eventually you'll be at the level where you will be at the level where you'll get the new content. I'm still out of range for some stuff they release for players level 50+ so just remember one day you'll be at the higher levels.

[lucid idol]

Worst event store to date, literally the opposite of spoilt for choice, there's nothing I want to spend currency on...

[halcyon fiber]

The code isnt even active yet. Maybe do some reseach before whining

[warm blaze]

Another useless event stroe... the 3 in a row ... wjats so hard to add some refits... or at least useless primes nobody will spend for... some prime particel....or fc shards.... cant be so hard .... waiting for the section 31 refit for disco since more than a year because i failed to spend my tokens the 1 time it was in store

[small raft]

Yea code just says invalid for me

[ember sapphire]

Yep.... same

[mental plaza]

They made this code just to see how many people they fooled hahah 🤣

[unreal coral]

respawn rate of silent enemies is way, way too slow - stuck with the higher level hostiles in a given system, waiting for the lower ones to respawn

[naive viper]

Well... its after reset and I still get this.

[molten marlin]

That's going to happen when the code isn't live yet, like the announcement said.

[obtuse sapphire]

COME ON, MAN! ROMULAN WARBIRD SHARDS!!!!

[naive viper]

May as well sign off for the evening since I can't do the new events anyway. Shouldn't be surprised really.

[toxic sinew]

Ok. At ops 46 with a fairly new pilum (t4, haven’t gotten it to level 20 yet). I can get 7 lvl 41 silent battleships per run or 1 lvl 44 + 2 lvl 41s. This gives me a maximum of 520 points for the sms silent hostile kill event. Clearly this event should be labeled heroic as it is a spend event. As an extra screw off everyone who is relatively new to their ship bracket, none of the ships I’m currently capable of hitting drop loot that I can use in the temporal parts exchange. Just utterly poorly thought out. Which honestly shouldn’t surprise me anymore.

[halcyon sky]

You amended the nx01 event code to ops 35 though it originally started at 38. can you please do the same with this arc? Please and thanks? would be nice to include a few more players in the newer servers that cant go over ops 39....

[pallid dagger]

OK, event code is supposedly live, yet I still get this (...and before you ask, yes I refreshed the page, even logged out of and back into my Scopely account):

[molten marlin]

ops 38+ only

[dire urchin]

Seems like a very high point completion. If hit L57, I need 222 hostiles to complete event.

[warm blaze]

Why does the 61 sys has warp 950 and not 900 like the xindi sys.... so you need a t5.5 epic to get there at 61.... thx a lot for no events then...

[willow glen]

@wanton copper Any official stratrgy with which ship and crew players at ops lvl41 and lower can defeat the silent enemies?

[alpine lintel]

Scopely what‘s wrong with you? I‘m new to OPS 51 and can’t shoot a single ship in the 51 system….

[sweet valve]

I've been at ops 49 for a while and struggle with the 46s for the event. Have to go shoot trash in the 41 system to complete the SMS.

[viral kayak]

See #1214613753384013905 message

[thick owl]

Scopely, you need to massively increase the spawns of 41 Silent Enemies. I have the Severus crew on my T4 Kelvin but I can barely take a 41 Battleship and that requires burning buffs.

[hollow sundial]

Why do you guys make it impossible to "go lower"? I mean at my ops 56 I can currently try to kill uncommon g5 @ the 51 system, but the loot is useless as I can ONLY refine rare 5* stuff.
The 55 system is buggy and the 46 system gives me 4* rare, which I cannot use at all.
Why oh why is there so much useless stuff added that nobody wants, can use and only uses up more storage space

[wintry abyss]

Exactly the point. Useless loop - me ops 55 need to apparently kill 55-59 hostiles. Well not gonna happen with 1 bill power. I cant refine G4 arttifact parts. So I am out of this loop or what?

[uncut sentinel]

Is the Event Code Level locked? My daughter attempted to redeem on her account and got "Invalid Code"

[hollow sundial]

exactly, @wintry abyss . I could understand if you get low(er) value chests if you are not getting the loot scopely expects us to get, but currently, it is buggy, useless and a waste of time if you ask me.
am currently only killing the lower lvl ships for the SMS, so I won't miss out on the enterprise coins for the event shop

[viral kayak]

Yep, another example of discrimination ...

[strong raptor]

Oh good! the 55 silents now drop the correct loot that i need for my level. except I can't even come close to killing them so.....

[jaunty ingot]

yep, again with the lower ops not getting to use codes. Lets just annoy the smaller players before they become bigger players. Scopely seem to like weed killing their flower beds before they bloom. Great long term business planning guys.

[lone bronze]

So basically the first SMS in the arc can’t be completed? Kind of bad. Into the Unknown is completely unrealistic. Full run 25 lvl 46 got to 1670/9200

[lucid idol]

Already had two players in my alliance quit today because this update has completely alienated them. They're 55 ops, can't kill even a 55 silent hostile with any crew setup.. you are gonna see a mass exodus of players if you don't fix this soon....

[viral kayak]

Too late, the exodus has started 😭

[lean prawn]

This release completely screws over all ops 55 players and ops 56 players who can't yet build shipyard 56 thus a 56 ship.

[wintry abyss]

Why do the UC G5 look the same as the rare G5 artefact parts? I only can kill 51 - how am I supposed to n refine anything?

[lucid idol]

1. You keep adding grind loops... grind after grind AFTER GRIND. At what point do you think it's gonna become too much? For many, it already is too much. You need to be more creative with the content you add, you can't just keep adding hostiles/armadas and a new ship to kill them with and expect people to keep up with it.
2. You refuse to listen to player feedback. People keep telling you to take some time off new content and fix bugs, instead you just keep mindlessly churning out new content while the bugs pile up
3. You consistently make huge mistakes. A mistake every now and then is absolutely acceptable, we're all human. However, do you not find it odd that month after month you are faced with masses of complaints from the player base? Do you write the complaints off as toxic gamer syndrome? I can assure you, people in general are fairly easy to please. Each release however, you consistently prove that the final thing you think about in your processes (if you even think about this at all), is the players. It almost feels like you actually hold a certain amount of disdain towards us.

[uneven jolt]

Hi is it possible that you add more officer to the event store? Would be nice if you could add officer that would help us with the 3 new grinding loops you have added during this arc`s. The Rare officers, Cath, E-Data, E-Troin( as she was not in previous event stor), Voyanger crew to help us get ISO damage: Neelix, BLT, Harry Kim, and Tom Paris. Guess lower player would appreciate Chen and Moreau. With all the grind and hostile hitting crews it would be nice with a Eventstore that could help us make it easier and faster. As this will take time to maintain the grind for this loops.

[lean prawn]

and most of those ops55-56 players in that range are the solid $20 a month players, a lot up to $100 a month. Scopley just alienated all of them from this new release.

[elder fern]

That’s because Scopely wants them to spend more so they can kill those hostiles…

[lone bronze]

Ops 55 here and got 18% of the way. It’s pointless. Not buying a $100 pack to finish a 24 hour event

[manic siren]

yea, this arc is not for lvl 39 no matter what (unless you have all the primes) max ent, mostly maxed research, PM Tucker and paris tendi, hugh and others below and only took a lvl 41 down by 70%

[polar berry]

@full swan Could you please check with the development team if they tested these new hostiles only with high level accounts, or also with medium OPS (40-55 and litltle primes)? Thanks from one of the EU 125 whales.

[spare merlin]

another washout event arc, lots of players on my server EU125 ops 38 cant take part due to the way its been setup

[hasty wedge]

Aim ops 56 and having difficults as well. So i barely can kill this stuff with my ships, I can kill few 55 ships but not 57's. The proplem is that the Lyrae Nebula system is packed of people trying to kill the 55's since they cant kill the 57's

[full swan]

I'll see what I can find out.

[manic siren]

forgot to add that i had a 70% explorer and a 30% general exo as well

[trail solar]

Boosting this post, because its spot on.

And would like to add that the event store is really silly. Nothing useful. At least put in some of the officers that have been around the past few months and that people might have missed.

You keep adding grind loops... grind after grind AFTER GRIND. At what point do you think it's gonna become too much? For many, it already is too much. You need to be more creative with the content you add, you can't just keep adding hostiles/armadas and a new ship to kill them with and expect people to keep up with it.
You refuse to listen to player feedback. People keep telling you to take some time off new content and fix bugs, instead you just keep mindlessly churning out new content while the bugs pile up
You consistently make huge mistakes. A mistake every now and then is absolutely acceptable, we're all human. However, do you not find it odd that month after month you are faced with masses of complaints from the player base? Do you write the complaints off as toxic gamer syndrome? I can assure you, people in general are fairly easy to please. Each release however, you consistently prove that the final thing you think about in your processes (if you even think about this at all), is the players. It almost feels like you actually hold a certain amount of disdain towards us.

[uneven jolt]

We should get some more token to figure out what lvl of hostile we can kill with the crew ship and research we have. We need some runs to find our footing with this new hostile.

[silver pike]

This event is a joke, I can’t kill one level 46 silent but that is the lowest to get the coins at my level to exchange. But I get event points for the 41-44.

[manic siren]

thats easy for me, i cant kill the lowest level one

[open field]

I am sick & tired of this new loop as I have wasted 4 tokens with 4 different crews & different ships & got nowhere 😡😡😡😡😡

[vagrant topaz]

Temporal sms not registering artifacts? Stays 0 but unlocked 2 new..

Scopely is continuing to make this game harder and more time consuming and just ignoring player feedback it’s getting exhausting. We have had lots of high spenders on our server quit the game.

[split gull]

Using the crew recommended by Scopley (I don’t have Tucker) I can kill 1 46 with my T3 Korinar. There is no way for me to complete the SMS in 24 hours. The ships I can kill, don’t give me the loot I need in the refinery. Big thumbs down on this update.

[solid tangle]

As long as players buy enough overpriced packs, they don't care. Their first obligation is to the shareholders. And the shareholders want money, they don't care about the players.
People should STOP buying packs, STOP buying ships and STOP doing new arcs. Then stuff would change. As long as they buy enough, nothing will.
YOU VOTE WITH YOUR WALLETS, people!

[spare merlin]

might just delete the game , im seriously pssd about this latest event at the start of the arc

[lucid idol]

if the trend on my server is anything to go by, there will be hundreds of mid to high level players quitting. That's a fair amount of money, none of them are f2p, I'd say average spend of £100/month

[viral kayak]

I and few other alliance members already did last year - doesn't seems to help much so far but we shall see... too bad some of them are no longer among us 😭

[vagrant topaz]

@Eco#1936 really hope the feedback is being listened to… as a 46 player spending thousands in this game in getting closer to quitting. Many spenders on our server have quit because you guys aren’t listening to consistent feedback from players. You guys are basically killing off your spenders on our server and replacing with f2p.

[light canyon]

Well another worthless event when hostiles are way to strong for us at the recommendad lvl for doing these . Thanks a lot scopley for another kick in the nuts force to buy event thing.

[solid tangle]

100 a month is nothing to some. In our alliance people get 4-5 packs a month. In one another some guy spends a grand a month and doesn't bat an eye. There are some big spenders out there and they spoil everything.... like money always does.

[granite abyss]

Unless the big whales on the VIP discord kick off nothing will change

[scenic flint]

<@&509690795536941056> when are we ever going to get this refit back in the event store? I would like to complete this sometime.

[fierce steeple]

This is my strongest ship at ops 52, attacking the lowest level hostile that drops the required loot, using, the crew that YOU suggested. I cannot even kill one.

Sure, in time with the right new researches I might be able to eventually kill a few, but not on day one, and not a day one SMS.

I find it difficult to believe this was an oversight, and more likely a management decision to push sales of the new prime. It poor when pay to win becomes pays to participate.

[manic siren]

yea, my wallet is closed this arc... maybe my account too

[scenic flint]

You're behind on your ships. You should at least have a G4 epic at your ops.

[manic siren]

how about a lvl 39 with a max ent, the recommended crew and 2 damage exos that cannot get the lowest level hostile

[forest turtle]

No one gets a g4 epic these days - utter waste of rss - g4 rares can easily deal with everything on that ops lvl ... except for the new arc.

[timid violet]

another give us money to finish event... and event is same as prize 💩

[scenic flint]

The game has been pushing players to not skip ships for a while now. And this just sounds like another reason to get 1 ship at every level.

[wicked pike]

Ops 49, top milestone 2200 points. Can't kill a 46 let alone a 49. Do the maths. Best I can do is 44 so need 50 of them. I get 4-5 per trip.
Conclusion: I'm very happy there isn't literally anything good in event shop that I'd want cause I'm not gonna get much currency when I'm binning most events this month
suggestion: please add an "ignore" or "hide" button to events for those players who find them irritating and/or unplayable

[lucid idol]

g4 epics are trash, g4 rare all the way to 53 ops is the generally agreed method. I'm 58 ops and still don't have a g4 epic, waste of faction tokens.

[solid tangle]

Yeah, hiding events would be a great idea! It's annoying to scroll through all of them and always look for the ones you want!

[marble sierra]

the slb for this very lame. a) hitting down is required to be scoring high. b) u wont get the stuff u need for refinery for doing so. c) offc the spendy guys who reward scopely for this arc get tokens in their artifact packs 😄

[forest spear]

You level locked us to specific token systems for these Slilent hostiles - and then made them incredibly difficult to kill at all.
So... This arc is one that gets not a drop of money from me. I typically buy the pass, but on this one - screw you for this idiocy.

[winged copper]

https://tenor.com/view/gordon-ramsay-difficult-hard-gif-9001375

[torpid saddle]

Silent enemies not spawning. Systems are void of hostiles

[formal musk]

there are SO many things that could be in this event store. Projectiles? All ship refits over 6 months old? NX-01 blueprints? Instead its four officers and overpriced ship parts / raw materials. Very lame. Do better.

[nova pollen]

🤡 💩 release screwing players yet again

I bet you lose another 5% of the player base again

[steel lake]

time and time again, why compete in an slb when the best possible reward is 2 epic officer shards? wowsers cause at ops 59 there is litterally nothing else in that store. you cant get cloaks for 56 and above ships the rss is so overpriced and out of touch its pointless. and the blue officers arent worth leveling up in any way.. so trip or archer maybe if your lucky you can get 100 shards before the end.. what a waste of a month

[pearl crag]

Way to go again scopely alienating a large part of your player base by catering to level 38 and above with a free promo code for goodies. Great message to lower level players that we don't mean anything to you. Your making it harder and harder to justify continuing to pay to play this game by alienating your players.

[cunning chasm]

Really Scopely this time you can only spent disruptor parts from specific level hostiles? Unable to spent ones you gathered from lower levels... This is not really cool to said it mildly. 👎

[drowsy vine]

These silent enemies...I'm not spending this arc... Done! These last few arcs are strictly to drive spending

[knotty acorn]

This is probably the laziest arc release ever. The aquatic were good. This one is garbage as the artifacts aren't even worth it.

[true radish]

5 tokens between 2 in daily drop and 3 free from promo code. Have one left and still haven't finished sms. Can only kill one level 46 which drops the loot I need for cheat pull. 516 loot!?! 3000 needed for a single chest pull with two tokens a day works out to three days to get one chest! This is ridiculous! Hostiles need to be made easier and tokens for systems need to be removed. I've had to grind level 41s to try and finish sms event since I'd never be able to if I hit the 46 level ships I need to for chest pull.

Also, event store for this month has nothing of interest at all. Good job scopley! You need to put NX-01 in there or something players actually want.

[sweet valve]

I'm on the same boat. I have 2 left and I doubt I'll finish the SMS. Horribly designed, but they're not even offering an apology and rescaling it. Feels like they're using players as guniea pigs.

[tame tinsel]

Game long and prosper!

[true radish]

They may fix it but people will quite before they get around to it. Hopefully they realize the giant problem they have caused and push out several gift chests and address all the players concerns within a day. Best I can hope for is they pull new arch for a day or two to fix it instead of trying to patch while we all suffer.

[sand lintel]

... avoid player suffering??? nope... they havent ever gone that route. we are here to suffer at their hands because they want us to spend our way out of their fiascoes.

[wintry abyss]

@wanton copper stop the events right now and pull the plug. Review your insane mechanics and adjust it. How absolutely useless is your development team?

[dire matrix]

There are only 16 people on the SMS leaderboard in our server. That says it all. This whole battle pass is a money making farce. What happened to the days when the BP would guarantee at least one officer full unlock, or a ship. All you want now is the top 1% of spenders to play and the rest can go **** themselves, you do t even try to hide it anymore.

So much for your promise last year of making the game more streamlined and less daily heavy, all you do is introduce new ways to rinse us. Congrats for killing the game

[river merlin]

they want people to get frustated and buy packs to get strong enough to finish the first day event

[knotty acorn]

A level 52 cannot kill the necessary loot-bearing hostiles unless they fork out cash to buy the G4 epic. Thankfully, they made the artifacts be so underpowered that they aren't worth getting. This event store also has very little appeal to most people on my server. They really didn't think this one through.

[silver briar]

This event store is garbage. Why haven’t the nx01 bps been included? Everything else is ancient. Again the hostiles are not tuned to the ops range.

[bitter field]

Super discouraging to have 2 themes where your ship dies 90% of the time and burn the haard to get tokens Both the Aquatic and Silent I have a 98% loss rate using several of the recommended crews. just going to skip the events now, waisting my time

[potent umbra]

Terrible. Completely out right money grab.

[bitter field]

After today ZI am looking for a different game to spend my time and $$ that is fun and is encouraging to players not creating obstacles of discouragement. this game is no longer fun

[wise rapids]

I really want to know what the logic is of running an sms that the majority of players won't be able to complete. I mean seriously at ops 44, with the kelvin and the recommended crews I can kill 2-5 per run, yet the 1 day event would require me to kill 45, and the most we can get is enough tokens to run 5...seriously what the heck are you guys thinking?

[dire matrix]

They think you'll be so desperate to complete an event for menial rewards, that have no actual value in the event store, that you'll part with £99 to buy more tokens.

Scopely are delusional

[bitter field]

Scopley just taking a fun game and adding as much frustration thaty just keeps ramping up and now I am going to stop spending and stop playing

[oak bloom]

So I gather the new arc sux and is sounding like another cash grab from what I'm reading here

[wise rapids]

Yes they are delusional, though I don't think they are even selling extra tokens...so it doesn't even make sense for their usual greed.

[warm cave]

Dont like the grind... but the hostiles are easy with right crew. I'm killing 20 plus on a single hull

[silver briar]

And what level hostile are you hitting? With what ship? What ops level? How much have you spent on the game?

[ivory cape]

Yayy for more unplayable content! Follow scopely for more on how to lose players and alienate customers!

[warm cave]

i'm a ops 42, i'm using ktinga, hitting 41 and 44s. I'm a battlepass player

[cinder ermine]

I'm guessing we just supposed to pretend that whole "reducing the daily grind" statement never happened, as we are just adding new loops every arc now and going hard in the opposite direction and not looking back. 😆

[bitter field]

And what ever happend to the missinf exo from incersions?

[fluid gust]

not before saturday event reset.

[vast breach]

I'm a lvl 52 and can barely scratch a 51 silent hostile and there's no way to get the necessary loot to refine!

[sharp grail]

THX for an Event wich only can done when i payed the Last three arcs for officers 👆

[vast breach]

Finding content getting harder and harder and I thought the xindi was a grind

[delicate marlin]

Another cash grab. Not wasting time on this.

[hexed kernel]

That's how most of us feel.

[royal bramble]

Yep… yet another joke of a rollout. Lvl 47, 4-5 per hull of the 41 silents with the recommended low class Severus crew on a t5 Newt (cause I do have a life outside this game therefore don’t have tucker or trip yet cause I ain’t spending my rent and grocery money on pixels)… pretty sure scope will trot out the same old tired “working as intended” nonsense… keep making it about rage spending, scamply.

[bitter anvil]

Whats your ship power?

[light canyon]

Way to go scopley you created an event bit far worse the Tribble’s me Tribble’s

[granite gust]

Restored the Guardian of Forever and got no points scored in the Temporal Artifact Hunt event

[broken root]

Sooooo how do you expect us to complete these events when we need tokens to go to the systems. I wasted my 4 tokens trying to figure out which ones I could possibly kill. Even when I did get a few kills, I realized I needed 10 trips to the system to complete the event

Was this alone event meant to be heroic?

As well, how do you expect us to unlock these artifacts for this 24 hour sms when we can't even unlock one. Yet another spend event in sheep's clothing.

[jade oxide]

Where are the Uncommon parts refined at? I see only the rare refinery option for disruptors

[toxic galleon]

Fantastic event. 🙄 Level 45 crewing with suggested crews and can’t kill a single 41 silent enemy. What a joke

[granite gust]

Cabledog - Mine says Level 55-60 so I had to go to the level 55 system to get 5* rare. If I grind the uncommon in lower systems there is no option to refine them. I realized that after wasting tokens on the lower systems

[jade oxide]

I only got through T2 of the sms myself.

[gleaming goblet]

Great arc scopely at lv 42 have no ships to take on these “new” enemy ships cause I generally play free to play. But with your wallet geared advancement I can see this is about the end of my time in this bs game.

[mild glacier]

These new hostiles are absolute trash, virtually everyone has to ouch way lower than their level in order to do the sms, some can’t even kill a single hostile, and almost no one is getting the refinery materials they need from the hostiles they can actually kill. Here’s an idea, how about designing events that the average player can actually do.

[copper helm]

Even with the recommended crews and officers at a higher rank (Charvanek maxed even), my T6 Valdore can only take out 5-6 lvl 41s in one run, no where close to enough to finish this event at ops 44. Glad to see here that I'm not the only one, but especially if these events are geared towards players as low as 39 how are people expected to complete them?

[turbid hamlet]

What happened to the Event Stores? None if the Miner Refits, such a tiny assortment of only officers from Enterprise, No Projectiles, where is the fun variety we used to get? 😦

[fair lantern]

What a total freaking waste of time. Had to spend one token to see the suggested Charvanek crew wasn't going to work for me. Then I could only kill three or four at a time using PMG. 👎

[languid ice]

Players needed a 42 ship to perform well against Xindi. Now they need a 46 ship to get anywhere with the Silent. And that’s hitting down to the hostiles that don’t drop useful loot.

[open field]

This new ARC is making me think of giving up & maybe uninstalling after this month due to the new loop is just ridiculous & unachievable at lower levels 😭😡

[glossy stone]

Went back in and rated 1* in the play store.
Whoever approved this new loop should be embarrassed.

[halcyon sky]

lets hope they amend the new ENT code to at least ops 35 like they did with the nx o1 code... NX01 started as 38 only and was amended to 35. idk why they dont do same here

[coarse aspen]

@thorn lily is there a reason why ENT3 codes doesn’t work for ops 35?

[molten marlin]

because it's 38+ only, the same level that the new content starts at

[granite nymph]

Are you actively trying to kill this game. I’m level 35. And the only reason I went to level 35 is to try to get free NX bps. Which I didn’t get because you said I wasn’t level 35 at the right time. Now to get new freebies I have to be level 38. I don’t pay $100 to play. I can’t just levels like you want. You keep focusing on high level whales but are killing off the krill. This game is in a death spiral. There is no incentive for new players to join and way too much dependency on $$$ to advance to new content. And everything is put out on holodeck so if you don’t get it right away you will never get it if you don’t pay. And the bugs and constant freezes and resets multiple times an hour. It’s just too much. I don’t understand why I play. I love Star Trek but you have bastardized it into a PvP game that isn’t in the spirit of trek.

[granite nymph]

They don’t play the game so they don’t know. They don’t even play the game to test it. After years this game is still n the alpha phase. We aren’t even beta testers.

[broken root]

And how come you have only 4 officers in the event store? Why are there no FC officers? It took 10 months to unlock locutus and now I anticipate it taking 12 months worth of incursions to unlock FC Seven.

Here's an idea, how about adding FC Seven to the event store and the Borg event store? After all she was Borg!!!

[buoyant ember]

Territory Buffs - They all need to be changed/updated. Make them worth the effort and a value to obtain them. Give more advance notice of how the territories will change to allow better planning vs last minute scrambles.

[indigo lily]

This is fun and interactive:

[glad surge]

Who thought this was a good idea?

[true radish]

I've heard it does not work for PvP

[lavish pawn]

It's unclear if that is a percentage boost or straight power added. It's basically a prime for winning the "tech distinctiveness" events

[pulsar obsidian]

Here I thought the last arc was the last straw for me, but this one has done it for me for sure. I’m ops 52 and I cant even kill one of the new lvl 51 hostiles. Been a fun 4 1/2 years. ✌️

[half panther]

We don't

[sharp lark]

This is absolutely horrid. I tried multiple crews, exos, boosts... including the suggested crews. I killed 3 of the Silent total, with a 14.7M K'Tinga. I'm 36th on my SLB with three kills, nearly 11 hours after the events came live. There is no excuse for this. Can't finish this sms, which means I can't finish the meta for it either now. Thanks for the rip-off.

[fresh grove]

Yeah those things suck. I cant even hit the ones I need to use the refinery with a 37m Newton... Rework these hostiles scopely..... can't even finish the sms, like at least increase the time or give more tokens or something

[half panther]

The hostiles need to be scaled waaay down. I'm 5th on the ops 38-39 slb... out of 5. Yep, five players who are ops 38 and 39 out of the entire server (91).
Also, another grind. Just what everyone asked for. /s

[trim vigil]

Idk why this channel keeps appearing/disappearing on mobile.
I've only gone in once vs these silent.
Janeway/torres/the doctor seemed okay vs 46s. 22- 46s after hitting a 49 first and losing half hull.
If I had Cerritos and Titan-A's buffs 49s would be as easy as 46s

[half pier]

900 points can kill 3 because we are lock by token... I would like try some crew... But i can't...

[manic sonnet]

Only four players on Server 34 in the same bracket have been able to score in the event. I am level 39 with all three epic ships maxed and haven't been able to kill one silent hostile. This event is beyond ridiculous

[turbid hamlet]

Stop making events where it doesnt matter the hostile level killed to score. I should be rewarded for being able to kill a high level hostile and not just a general scoring pool.

[trim vigil]

Login to the scopely store in a web browser and enter "Ent3" in the redeem code section. You get some free warp tokens and artifact fragments.

BTW the recommended crews listed are bait for you to blow-up your ships. The 350% crit damage is cumulative. By round 4 your taking more than 3x the damage as round 1

[median coral]

As OPs 44, with a T4 Valdore (20/20), I ran with Janeway/TheDoctor/E-Data, with Hugh, Rutherford, and Ghrush BD. With the 80% Explorer damage Exo-Comp, I was getting ~8 lvl 41 Silent Enemies per run (after I spent 3 tokens using other crews, barely getting 2 kills, and one time no kills). I still won't complete the SMS event, unless somehow I get more tokens (without spending $).

I did send them to help out for a bit. I liked Hugh because of the bonus crit chance. Yeah the Severus crew (Sev/Char/Galia) got me 2 kills before dying.

[indigo lily]

Try Paris, Boimler, Ghrush below deck. Also send your cerritos and Titan to Thalassian Cluster to buff up first.

I was using the Severus crew with those 3 below on my 25 Pilum.

[trim vigil]

Severus crew is a bait. 20% hull damage per round is nothing. Maybe vs atican or ex-borg. Not vs silent.
PMC/T if they work or Janeway/torres/doctor if you have the shield buffer to handle them

[chilly cedar]

Should disallow the lv 50+ to hit in the 41 system. They are killing all the 41s, leaving the lower level players nothing to hit

[trim vigil]

I am ops 50

There is no point in 50s killing 41s.
The client tells you want levels you need to kill in order to get refineable rss.

[chilly cedar]

But scoring for event still allows 41 hostile some pts

[trim vigil]

I see no point in any 50 wasting their warp token for zero artifact refinery rss. Let them be dumb

[chilly cedar]

I'm ops 46. No pilum. Only Defiant and Voyager can reach warp 190. Defiant died with no kills. Both ships are maxed for my level. This level locking for ships is stupid. It's another ploy to give face to the higher level players with lousy stats.

If level lock of ships stays, then ensure that SLB is grouped likewise. If you want to open up SLB ops bracket, then do away with ship level locking.

[half pier]

Its maybe time to THINK seriously at what you do, all last update was crazy bad, for all player, and more for lower level, i don't understand you choice, more and more people leave the game, i really miss old time

[trim vigil]

There is literally a 41 posting his 11mil enterprise killing 41 silent. At a rate of about 10 per hull. Defiant and discovery are terrible hostile grinders (check discovery accuracy/defiants dodge)

[rough scarab]

Defiant is basically wet toilet paper 😂. which is extremely sad considering how strong it was in lore for such a small ship

[pulsar obsidian]

Cant even scratch a lvl 51 silent with my 60 mill Pilum. We have to hit the 41’s until scopely fixes this.

[chilly cedar]

Can't be helped.. valdore and Ktinga can't reach warp 190. No pilum

[trim vigil]

Well here is My t8 53mil Newton killing 51s at about 10 per hull.
53s are too big for a g4 I think.
I get no useful rss vs 51s/53s. Just went out to prove 51s aren't an issue.

[chilly cedar]

Not playing event. Lower systems over run by lv 50+ with their ships more than 100x mine. Never get to hit much at all. You think we have whole day to wait to swot anything and having them snatched by faster big ships? Scopely, you really don't know game design and player psyche

[fleet anchor]

Because you have this SLB going on giving equal points for any silent hostile killed, all of the big whales are in the small system killing all the 41's so there aren't any for the smaller players who actually need that loot type. It's worthless to try this SMS. Bad design. You needed to scale the points on the SLB so it would motivate whales to not just kill the smallest ones.

[strong anchor]

No Daily Events tonight? Restarted and they appeared.

[coarse aspen]

Well that kinda sucks … rewards should be the same for everyone regardless of ops levels

[trim vigil]

16 - level 49 kills with a t8 Newton. Probably would have been more if I could have targeted only explorers. 44k resources. Tried janeway/torres/5 vs 46s... about 38k resources off that try

Janeway/torres/doc vs janeway/torres/5(+80%loot) (+doc below decks) loot diffys

[pulsar obsidian]

Who are you using below deck?

[trim vigil]

+hull +dmg +crit +crit dmg... about 30 - 46s no exos just T-A and Cerritos buffs... Mixed hostiles. Easily 50+ if I could stick to explorers

This is what I got off the 30x level 46s....

[white river]

That is really discriminating that not all player can get the bonus in the web store. Shame on a Scopely!

[peak meteor]

Token space? What a joke @wanton copper one thing to do like xindi but do then upgrade the grind to token space. What a joke. At least be honest and tag it heroic so we know its a spend event 🙄

[versed hedge]

@wanton copper some extra travel tokens is the only way this SMS is getting done for non whales, don’t have tucker yet and janeway failed miserably so PMC seems only viable option

[grizzled hound]

Evidently if you're not lvl 44+ with a fat purse, Scopely doesn't want you to be able to do anything in this event.

[naive viper]

Watching an ops65 hoovering every 41 in the lowest silent system, leaving nothing for lowers like myself to hit. As someone said earlier 50+ should be banned from that system.

[brisk sigil]

That’s scopely thinking i can do sms with their crew

[median loom]

The “whales” are shooting the smaller lower system ships because it’s the only way they can complete the SMS, because they can’t kill the ones at the level they need too. They aren’t doing it for the loot because they can’t refine it. I’m an ops 55 and I can’t kill a single 55 silent enemy. I’ve. Been disenfranchised by everything released this year and haven’t seen any player quality.

[naive viper]

I'm ops46 and can only shoot the 41s. Complete waste of time as all the higher ops are taking them all.

[trim vigil]

The crews were bait for failure.

If my t8 Newton can kill level 51s losing about 6mil hull a kill..... It's crew issues for your Northcutt... put Cerritos and T-A buffs on it.

53s yeah that's going to need burn damage from g4s.. I just went out and tried 51s/53s after seeing everyone complaining about 51s

[craggy elm]

The mechanics get worse with bigger hostiles needed to be grinded.

A 53 does 3 times more dmg per Round + cumulative dmg increase 350% at start of each round.
It also has 3 time hull health

A 55 has 2 times more dmg per round compared to a 53 + cumulative dmg increase 350% at start of each round and double hull health.

OPS 55 vs 55 silent Enemy is brutal if you are not T6+ and have decent forbidden tech and officers.

Good sourcing has become impossible as scopely lets OPS 53+ battle vs OPS 60+ in spending events while they nerfed the scoring aswell in favor of the OPS 60+.

For several months scopely cuts rewards while making loops harder and harder. So no wonder why people quit and stop spending.

[brisk sigil]

T8 means you can put many below decks. I can’t as i only have 2 slots and i try to have a good bonus percentage...
And anyway, with only 2 tokens, you can’t really experiment crews

[fading basin]

So i burned all my tokens , finally found a crew that worked for me raced the higher ops, getting around 7 per hull of my valdore (i am ops 42) for me to refine the loot and get 3 , yes 3 shards of the artifact, only 27 to go, so thats about 67 days as i can work out on two tokens per day and 135 hulls of my ship if nothing changes, i think i am going to sit this loop out

[jovial stream]

what rank is yours crew? my 51m Korinar cant beat 51 with this team, even with cerritos support

[light canyon]

Love how scopley puts recommended lvl for these at lvl10+ were ain’t no way in heck can a lvl 10 beat these let alone most lvl 40’s heck lvl 50’s are struggling to beat these

[proven wren]

Lol, whales are in the same boat. Even with a T11 Enterprise D with exo, fully boosted with Titan and Cherry it only lets you kill 5, but gives you a 12b trit bill🤣

[hidden tinsel]

same joke like with Xindi... and the worse: you cannot do all the events without killing dozens of those ships...

[sullen badger]

Utter ridiculous

[ashen heath]

Guys, do you remember the times when we got actual rewards for completing the new missions in the SMS? Like, Latinum, officer shards and tons of resources?

What do we get now? 3000 event store currency - that’s not even a single shard for an epic officer!!

Shame on you @wanton copper and @contentcreators for punching the players in their faces.
Again.
And again.

[normal iris]

And most of the (new) Epic officers don't even have captain abilities these days too 🙄

[naive viper]

I have no hope of hitting the final milestone (which for me is 1300). 🤷‍♂️ This is worse than the xindi release.
Just waiting for the new favours followed by the new ship to make killing these easier.

[charred pawn]

Not able to kill a single 41 with my best ship, recommended crew, and exo activated. All the epic officers recommended and for below decks I was not able to get via doing former events. This is absolutely disgusting. Shame on Scopely development team!

[light canyon]

I have no hope of doing these events in hunting the silent ones. And to top it off ships and crew that where kicking butt on lvl 38 frebooters are no taking losing where I was killing the lvl 38 freebooters left and right getting all my dailies for them done in one go . Now some of those same ships and crew are destroyed by the first one that’s bs

[cunning tendon]

This arc suxx big time. Well done Scopely

[sharp rivet]

Are we Alone?/Into the Unknown Event. The reward milestones are set far too high for the average player to complete this event. I have used both tokens with the recommended crew on a 170m ship and have only been able to get 3720 of the 9200 points required to complete the event - barely 1/3 of the required total. I know from AC and GC that I many players are experiencing the same frustrations that f2p/lower spend players are being significantly disadvantaged in this arc

[trim nacelle]

Use Janeway/Torres/Doc, it's better than any of the recommended crews

[empty badger]

Btw, who is the designer of this enterprise Arch?? It seems there is nothing right since the first arch, just more grind, more grind, more grind and mooooore grind, always asking for the player to burn the discord first until they make the adjustment ??? Can we have some cool and calm launch for the new arch??

There is no Quality in your recent update, ALL about Quantity... More hostile to kill, more loop to do, more counter officers to the previous officers, more click on the menu...

Where is the split between ops 50++ and ops 60++, where is the reduction of click when you claim your dailies, where is the grind reduction, where? Where? Where? Are you guys waiting until no one plays your game before making some changes?

[trim nacelle]

The issue is, there's this super vocal minority that wants more things, but they've made the claim of quality over quantity, so you know which way they're going to go

[craggy elm]

it depends. Certain OPS are just screwed if they don't have a superior leveled ship combined with Forbidden Tech, Primes and high leveled Officers.

Scopely also screwed up Officer sourcing big time and for months already by lettting OPS 50+ top OPS 60+ "compete" in the same bracket - while making G6 score absurd high and <G5 score ridiculous low in sms aswell.

IMHO a lot of OPS 53+ might stop playing or spending money cause of this continuous imbalance.

[empty badger]

Still that super vocal minority can't play and enjoy the game if the majority player stops playing... Who is going to be their target, their enemy, their friends if no one is there... Ghost maybe?

[static onyx]

Poor design on Silent Enemies - SLB every one even ops 60+ farming 41 silent hostiles, because they can kill the most. SLB grants same points for every silent hostile... nightmare for ops 38-45 to get their loot their... and it's only one system available.

[vagrant cloak]

Worst arc/event ever... And we are one day in. Good job
And now i cant even Logg on. Maybe a sign for me to leave the game

[thorny turret]

Scopely. You have somehow made the absolute worst event you have done so far.

Everyone is ignoring the 44s unless they are a level 54 who is feeling generous.

Whoever designed this event needs to reconsider their career.

[spice ravine]

As a Player Lv42 it's impossible to kill even one Lv41 hostile.
So all Events where i need to kill this silent Enemies is not possible for me.
Really a great job Scopely 👎

[kindred storm]

For a start, remove the token to get into the system, then the milestones need a drastic overhaul. Like most here I'm reading, can't complete the SLB because the silent hostiles are too difficult to kill and as mentioned bigger players getting the ones I can hit.
Scopely promised less grind, this is the worst arc I've experienced, and the current grind is unreal.

[brave cipher]

Same in Lvl 46 Space. A lot of 52+ Player grind all Lvl 46 Ships. Brilliant

[twilit summit]

as a newer player at lvl 31 i gotta say the event store is well lack luster too pure disappointment max 40 intrepid plans best i can hope for is as a 2nd stella or one of 3 miners or the nano probes towards my vi dar

[vagrant arrow]

I think Scopely confused "quality over quantity" with "quantity over quality". The first is what we want, the second is what we're getting.

[toxic marsh]

I think $copley need to take a month off arcs and do some backend work on bugs and fix and stop this whale arc

[sullen badger]

Aye, but joke is on those ops 60+ hitting 41s, they can't refine the loot.

[rancid fractal]

I'm ops 56, best I can kill is the 51s for the event even though I cant use the loot. So I'm in a 51 system killing all the 51s because thats all I can, so now all thats left are 53s which screws over all the ops 53 - 51 players

[sullen badger]

$$$copely, thx for letting us see into the inner workings of the nut factory, aka Scopely HQ.

[cosmic slate]

Worst ARC EVER!

[torpid saddle]

No tokens left, 8 reds to finish. Major time suckage waiting for them to spawn and racing 20+ ships for one hostile. Not to mention the wasted tokens just trying to figure out crews. I will agree with the majority, this is the worst to date.

[harsh nexus]

Terrible. I can’t kill a single Silent Enemy. I won’t get to complete several events. With 4 hours to go there is only 17 players in my SLB. Why do I still bother with this game?

[prime nebula]

This scoring is utterly unfair and favoring only big whales player who. Comes hitting the smallest ship (mind they have superior impulse speed) making impossible to small. Player amy score. Right now om 125 a lev 54 is hitting all. 41 hostile making impossibile to play.
You MUST doffer score by lèvel of hostile as in any other slb! Or. Close. The brackets ny single. Levels. And even here just doing an sms could take. Hour.
This is a massive fail i programming this event. You should withdraw it!

[hearty arch]

The silence is deafening! Great job on quality…..

[sinful stratus]

I have stopped doing battlepass for the exact reason that the officer sourcing at 53 was impossible

[wanton anvil]

Remove the token locks on the silent hostile systems. As currently designed this is a bad feature. Tying it to event store currency makes it even worse. Good thing the event store has nothing of value. Makes it an easy decision to skip this month.

[indigo lily]

Nanoprobes for your Vidar is more important than ship BPs. The sooner you get your Vidar up the better the credit exchange for the long game. Also, it’s not worth the resources to get the level 32 ships.

[prime nebula]

What's the point in having hostile 41 and 44 giving UC loot if you don't give any use for it in artifact tab???

[twilit summit]

I plan to get a 2nd Stella and the nano probes hopefully and skip the miners using 2 horizons atm anyway got my vi var t8 4 upgrades to go for its tier up to t9

[cosmic helm]

I grinded out uncommon then realized I have to grind level 46-49 hostiles to get rare for refinery.

[ashen heath]

Quick question: is anybody actually liking this game right now? I don’t!

[warm cave]

Notice everyone over ops 45… change the scoring for these slb to be the loot you get from these hostiles. So the higher ops have to kill their actual hostiles instead of stopping all of us from killing anything in our 41 space

[spark trail]

Who can I talk to about this? What kind of an Event Store is this. I think my Event Store is broken. I literally only have one option to pick from. The Amalgam reskin. I already have the TOS skins. Ops 39.

[analog gazelle]

silant hostiles too strong for killing

[sharp lark]

It ain't broke. The store sucks for everyone.

[shell bobcat]

So early 50s won’t finish the silent ship event. Four tokens and barely got above 1200…risiculous

[dark horizon]

Good planning on the silent enemy hunt SMS, most wont be able to finish, if I am looking at Aethera Nova system (41) it is full of 50+ hunting the low levels hostiles /s (adding /s to make sure you get the point)

[hidden tinsel]

its an event for the "Investors" only 🙂

[dim pollen]

👎👎👎❗️

[vagrant topaz]

Players are talking about a “are we alone” SLB, I have seen the screenshots it exists, but I don’t have it… only certain ops? Missed event store currency! 😩

[craggy elm]

#we are alone (with our feedback and balancing problems)

[mild trail]

Pitchforks! I got your pitchforks here! Torches! Get them while they last!

[dark horizon]

this may as well be the arc that makes me uninstall the game lol

[prime harness]

The into The Unknown event is garbage when it comes to the SMS tiers.

[uncut sentinel]

Event Feedback/Venting post.

@wanton copper I hope you pass this up.

I think Scopely needs to enact a plenty for the new silent space. Scopely did everything to tell people which systems to hit. Yet level 50's and higher seem to go for the easy lower like level 41 systems. Maybe a plenty of a send home if you are not in the correct system or higher needs to be enacted.

I am sorry, but as a 39 I cannot even compete when level 50 are clearing the system designed for the 39 to 44 bracket and thus I cannot get any points in the event. So why would I spend money with Scopely if I cannot enjoy the event?

[rapid flax]

I'd just like to be able to use any loot I obtain from the Silent Enemies rather than have it dictated to me. To clarify, if I have uncommon, I'd like to be able to use it, even if it is inefficient.

[remote badge]

Honestly jealous that there’s more than a single 41 in that screenshot… 3 was the max I’ve ever seen in that system at one time

[lethal tulip]

So this might be the worst event. Waves don’t work, event store is awful, uncommon loot is useless at my lvl, I can only kill one lvl 46 per trip and can’t finish the events.

[remote badge]

Mine is under the Artifact Hunt grouping… it’s not with the SMS.

[sinful token]

Because the new content is level differentiated rogues have a lot of power to completely spoil the content for everyone ops 30-50. A top ops rogue can force multiple players to burn tokens in order to clear him out and while NX and Voyager let us spot (unless cloaked) and find their base, the active base defense meta makes attacking their base to force a move difficult to impossible.

Using NX to report rogue who is blockading content to my server GC

[sharp lark]

I'm an ops 44. Assuming they hit only level 44 hostiles, there are only EIGHTEEN people on my Silent Enemies leaderboard that have enough points to have finished the SMS. Which means if they hit any level 41s at all, there's even less that finished. That's horrendous. What a joke.

[delicate bison]

I lost one token for hitting a 49 in 46 system (really? Make the system 46 and fill it to the brim with only 49 hostiles?).
I lost one token trying the Severus crew which gave me only one, ONE, 46 interceptor for a ops 46 Korinar T4 at 29m power.
I've lost one token to two 46s with Janeway Torres Doc.
And spent 4 tokens to gain about 5-6 46s with SNW Spock, Gigi, Tal.
That brought me to 85 points short of the last milestone. If they would have given people 8 tokens instead of the 3, we could had a bit of room to play and experiment.
This? This is a bad arc start. Just like this whole IP this year.

[carmine delta]

Really disappointed with this event. Poorly conceived - Im a fairly strong Ops 46 and i was stopped 50 pts short, doing everything “right.” This game has gotten less and less fun and clearly a money grab more than anything. Not cool. The only system i could kill the new hostiles in was a mosh pit.

[glad surge]

After the "hot fix".

[shell bobcat]

One of the worst events scopely

[high harbor]

I'm ops 41 and can't kill a single silent. I happen to not have Tucker or Ent E Data. Event store BP months are my favorite by far and motivate my continued play. Now, you've made me incredibly disheartened for the entire month right off the bat. Which means this whole Enterprise arc, three months thus far, is essentially wasted time for me. Nevermind the lack of 41s in the system or the need for tokens or the rogues which just compound the issue. Truly terrible feature design here.

[barren jacinth]

I always tried to do everything what possible for me in new arcs, but these new hostiles... its a total joke. first time in this game i will skip majority of new arc events, because i cant finish anything. looks like all new content became irrelevant for most of the players.

[smoky oxide]

this event tells me, Game Over

[light canyon]

The worst event even worse then their Tribble’s events were

[trim vigil]

Your screenshot shows you ran out of shield buffer.

Level 5 janeway, level 10 torres, level 5 the doctor.

Your Cerritos hostile shield/Titan-A hostile shield research should be maxed.

[jovial stream]

oh, you doublebuffed, its not normal

[high harbor]

Three choices exist at this stage:
-Scopley stops pumping out these wildly overpowered special hostiles meant to be killed with normal ships and making them super central to arc events
-Players, paid and F2P, keep playing while totally ignoring the arc events
-Players quit the game entirely

Proposed fixes for this truly empty headed new feature:
-Massively nerf these new hostiles, down like 80% strength
-Add two to four lower level systems of extremely weaker hostiles. Extremely.

You gotta know that most players aren't consuming "influencer" content like RevDeuce half hour videos. So most players won't ever hear the "these are the right officers for this new hostile" advice. But that said, even with those listed tricks, players still cannot kill these hostiles. Yes, even with the right officers and a boost from one or two ships. I'm seeing people need rare 200% damage exos to kill a single ship!!! This couldn't possibly have been play tested. I have no idea why you people think this is a good feature. Fix this today or you're gonna see a rapid race to the exits.

[light canyon]

It’s funny how easy events to do last a long time and hard events last a short time

[prime harness]

I give launch day a grade of F.

[fierce sonnet]

Even with max fortify, Cerritos buff, 200% damage exo, and Kelvin active ability, I could only get 7 level 41 kills with 1 hull as OPS 44 with near capped research. Even with the second day tokens I’m 300 points short on the event. Part of that is due to the nonsense power numbers and trying to hit a level 44 and wasting tokens.

[trim vigil]

Why wouldn't you double buff when you need a insane shield buffer, and crit damage buffs stack?

You are playing a mmo. Imagine releasing new content that is easily killed by everyone without needing new gear(officers/ships/research)... it would be pointless.

My ship which fought mostly 49s and tested the 50s hostiles vs the leader fighting only 46s.

[trail solar]

Its obvious that Scopely never reads here. Probably better to:

• Stop spending
• Rate the game 1* in appstore.
• Send endless tickets with complaints.

[fierce sonnet]

Which new research ship or officer helps with silent?

[strong lagoon]

Another Scopely Fail
Whales are killing all the 41 Silents and ignoring the 44s that the lower levels can’t hit. At 50+ 🐳 easily outrun any F2P ships, and you can’t wait for 🐋 to finish because the 41s do almost no damage to them: going to make the most of the token

[median loom]

The new Artifact Hunter - Spend Temporal Disruptors SMS is a joke right, Made me laugh when I saw it. 🤣

[trim vigil]

Epic tucker reduces enemy crit chance stacking.. pretty much the norm. The newest epic officers released with the patch.

[indigo lily]

Solid choice on Stella #2. If you can, getting a Meridian or 2 is huge too.

[neon bane]

How do we earn enough temporary disruptors in 2 days to complete the SMS for todays events

[median loom]

You don't at ops 55 I can't even earn 1. The only ones I get are in the daily pull. It's a joke, game design having a laugh at the players. Forget about it.

[rocky sinew]

@wanton copper @sterile wharf I was in the top 50 on my server for the silent enemy SLB and still couldn't complete the other event that rewarded the enterprise coins. I think they really missed the mark on this one for the average player. We were short some tokens needed for testing purposes or something.

[trim vigil]

I would assume in the future once leveled up, archer+tucker.. archer reduces crit chance, tucker reduces crit damage. I only have archer level 5.
I damn near cleared the sms on my first try without exos and Cerritos/Titan-A buffs on a t8 Newton. Finished 3rd In the slb

[jovial stream]

without? on 41 silents?

[trim vigil]

Ops level 50, killing 46s indiscriminately with a t8 newton. Easy enough to finish the daily in 1 token...if I can kill 10 51s with a t8 Newton not sure what folks ops 51+ are complaining about.
Only 600 parts are needed to finish... I'm about 17,000 too many

[sinful heart]

This is what we are complaining about

[light canyon]

The game went from being fun to so bad with lags and glitches to where things that weren’t broken are now. I used to be able to go from zero trit to almost full trit in a day just from my production , so much for having tc Spock with almost Max trit and other bonuses for trit to go up, as well as stuff to lower cost. It’s really bad that I can don’t billions of par and not touch it yet trit I can’t even get it up as high and it’s the most needed. Out of the 3k games like this I have played this is the worst on refinery and production. Supposedly supposed to get over 5k in trit an hr yet go to sleep for 8hrs and still pull way less then what I should . Great job scopley

[worn patrol]

Don't know why my post in event chat was deleted so I'll give my feedback here. Players would rather have a free to enter system with a cooldown on the Refinery like the xindi, exchange space,swarm, etc than a pay to enter dark space system. The reds are not respawnimg fast enough either. So we're waiting a really long time for 1 red to pop up we can hit meanwhile we're wasting time sitting there.

[cunning tendon]

Does anybody from Scopely read these comments or are they just ignored?

[trim vigil]

I see crew issues and you don't need 55/57s to score. I see hostiles 1/hostiles 2. I would assume killing 51s/53s would give you better points per hull

[fluid gust]

the problem with the spawn rate for the low level ones is the lack of incentive to go for the higher level ones.
take 4x the damage for 5% more loot.

so everyone goes only for the low level ones, even when they can take on the higher level ones.

[hexed kernel]

I wish they would have release some of these new ships in the 38 zone like they did for reptiles at least I could kill a few

[lofty glen]

Need to hit them to be able to refine though

[lavish pawn]

Now try converting those disruptors

[trim vigil]

Idk the loot diffy on 46s to 49s is about 40%

[lavish pawn]

You're literally at the top of your exchange bracket and hitting the button of your usable hostiles
#🤝-help-each-other message

[trim vigil]

I get 450 disruptors per refine... not sure how 900 isn't more than 600. If anything tomorrows bp rewards gives 1500...

[left marlin]

Thx Scopley another SMS I can’t finish cuz you hate all Ops55 players for some reason 🤦‍♂️👎

[sinful heart]

I need 55 to refine, doing smaller is pointless. And please help me with my “scoply suggested crews” 🤨

[trim vigil]

A level 46 won my bracket with a scopely suggested crap crew on a t10 g4.
I spent 3 tokens between 51/53's and loot crews on 46/49s.
Still took 3rd in slb.

[lavish pawn]

I was off on the brackets, if you were an ops level high those hostiles would have dropped lot loot you wouldn't have been able to refine

Slow mode makes for a poor place to discuss things

[fierce sonnet]

I don’t have archer or Tucker yet but I’m close. I get your point, but at the same time it’s still not an obtainable goal for a vast majority of players. I burned two days worth of tokens, plus the bonus tokens, and couldn’t complete the event. I get having those things makes your event faster and life easier. I would think my ops and power are at least average if not slightly above, so if a majority of people my power or lower can’t even complete an event trying to kill the smallest hostiles, what does that say about the event and/or hostile balance?

[light canyon]

Love how you can have 56.7b of something and have something cost 5k and you’ll lose like .1b every two times. This is not an exact reference but the losing .1 of what my resources is at is since I always lose .1 every 1-2 per a cost.yet never gain a .1 for my gains at every 1-2 gains it always takes 4-6 in gains to get a .1 what kind of math is that if the cost is same as gains . If it’s costing 5k and I’m losing a .1 and then I’m gaining 5k then shouldn’t I still gain the .1? These numbers are just examples not actual cost or gains out side of the losing .1 and not gaining a .1 in when the loses and gains are the same amounts.

[tidal gale]

@wanton copper @icy cairn this arc is demotivating ...never before were hostile grinds for an event so intense that they simply can't be completed without $$$...seriously making many look at stay or pass on the entire arc...put up a shield & come back in a few weeks

[trim vigil]

Hostile grinding crews consist of:
increasing mitigation
(old mudd, janeway/the doctor, snw officers/Morneau)

Enemy damage output reduction
(chen/talaan/cath)

+pen
(Tores/alex/liv/kang)

Only one crew listed synergizes past 51 decently..

Janeway crew... torres/janeway/the doctor.

53+ I would think MAX neelix below decks plus max tal could replace torres...

All scopely suggestions are bait to die.

[lofty glen]

And if you go to the 55 system you will see this. All the higher ops players sitting around waiting for a 55 hostile to spawn cos nobody wants to hit the 57s 😅

[trim vigil]

There are typically 8 spawn points for hostiles but yeah. New released systems usually are crowded.

I see no Cerritos nor Titan-A buffed ships.

Try-hard level? 0

[lofty glen]

It doesn't matter how many spawn points there are if nobody is hitting hostiles. Maybe they all timed out waiting for 55s to spawn when nobody is hitting the 57s to trigger faster spawning. I did mention in my previous post that they were sitting around waiting 🤷‍♂️

[hexed kernel]

Maybe they should make the hostile match the level they are listed at in power. That way they could be killed.

[trim vigil]

All I'm trying to say is,

with janeway synergy crew you only take hull damage from the first weapon shots each round.

You will need the titan-a and Cerritos hostile shield buffs for a decent shield buffer to absorb the remaining shots into round 5.

If I'm ops 50 with a t8 Newton with 25mil shields and I can grind out 10x 51s....

I can't see it not possible for a g5 ship.

[lofty glen]

Oh it's possible but the point ppl have tried to make is it's far too hard

[abstract roost]

46 system with no 46s

[trim vigil]

There would be no point if it were easy day 1/2

[lofty glen]

You always this arrogant or are you just trolling?

[elder fern]

I don't understand why this game has to be so hard tbh. Just make hostiles that are the same level as you a realistic challenge. This is supposed to be a grinding/strategy game, but you can't grind if you can't kill anything and any strategy that requires hundreds of real-life money is not a viable strategy for the vast majority of players. This arc is more of the same alienating BS Scopely has been pushing for the past year. It will only get worse as they continue to gaslight us and ignore our feedback. Sad because this game has so much potential and it seems like Scopely is doing everything in its power to run people off -- probably so they can reallocate their resources toward games they actually care about tbh.

[trim vigil]

Not arrogant. Zero effort should get zero reward.
You always this entitled or just trolling?

[sinful heart]

Interesting, will try those (except Nelix/Tal, they don’t work together) 👍

[sweet valve]

Max Neelix BD -> Needs NX first and then a LOT of time

[trim vigil]

Does tal not proc off neelix? 🤔 not sure the order they have in battle. My neelix is only level 5 so no use using him.
*gotcha. Never used him since he's 10% chance
*100% for 1% hull dmg +iso dmg bonus would still be worthwhile below decks w/o tal

[zenith wing]

neelix doesn't work if you have Tal on the bridge

[young breach]

Waves are totally broken now. Cannot see anyone else in system. Stuck.

[lofty glen]

You think he would know that 🤣

[long goblet]

Cannot complete Silent Hunter SMS event, no system tokens. Cannot claim anymore in exborg store either, why were we not told to save them up, 2 tokens is not enough to complete event for a lot of players @wanton copper

[trim vigil]

Doesn't show up in my client overview with that caveat

[fierce sonnet]

Using multiple tokens, experimenting with different ships and crews with applicable abilities, burning exo and abilities, and hitting levels below my OPS (with reasonably up to date research) is zero effort?

[sinful heart]

Sorry, but for a toilet game that already has tons of stuff that takes tons of time already, yeah, this grind is stupid. Anyone here trying to “I am the greatest gamer of all time” is really playing the wrong game. 🤨

[zenith wing]

that's the short version, you have to tap on the abilities from their main screen to see the full details.

[long goblet]

I have similar issues. It seems unless you have a Pilum or extremely strong Newton, Korinar or better you are screwed.

[trim vigil]

I was here initially to report the waves were broken yesterday.

I've seen nothing but complaints about the silent hostiles..

yet I've seen people trying to help ops 38+....

38's with the first enterprise that work to kill 41s.. that cleared the sms in one token...

Crews for 41-57s that actually work... soo.....not sure why it continues.

[fierce sonnet]

I’d be interested in seeing the crew and ship that did that. First ent as in the fed faction 34? Mine is maxed but like 9 mil less power than my Kelvin. Cerritos boost, max fortified, and 200% exo gets 7 kills per hull. Tried with ePic as well. Janeway crew on Voyager with more mit slightly worse results.

[trim vigil]

Scopely is known for not being reliable when it comes to descriptions

*as I reported yesterday the silent ship ability +350% crit damage at start of round is cumulative, and should be marked so.

[trim vigil]

Yes the level 34 epic..
It was janeway (captain) the doc and epic kirk for moral for the ship ability to work.
Full below decks crew if I remember correctly.

No need for cerritos/titan a buff. (But the extra crit/crit damage would help I imagine)

If you had max Harry Kim below decks the 34 epic ent would plow through 41s with janeway/doc/torres

[sinful quail]

So I‘m OPS 46, have 100k uncommon temporal disruptor parts but no place to exchange them! My refinery will only take rare disruptor parts as I just found out, and these are exceedingly difficult to get: one hull of my 37 million Korinar for one lvl 46 silent foe. How are normal players supposed to complete the event? And what are we supposed to do with the uncommon stuff?

[trim vigil]

Each ops level has a specific level range of hostiles to kill. It's listed in your exchange.

[sinful quail]

Thx, though definitely not what I wanted to hear. I find it ridiculous to not be able to exchange the uncommon stuff and breaks with the logic in all other refineries afaik. Greetings to Arrakis 🖖🏽

[trim vigil]

Pretty sure it was their attempt to keep higher level folk from preying on lower hostiles for rss.

Similar to first month's of mantis systems being swarmed by g4/g5 ships

I've seen this done in other mmo games, namely EverQuest.

Once you exceeded a level gap, the loot would be removed from the enemy.. so power farming was hindered.

[sinful quail]

Well, maybe. You could do that with an exchange rate that gets worse with OPS, though. I am one of the stronger OPS 46 in our server but pretty useless against more than one lvl 46 silent enemy. I used up all my tokens yesterday for the SLB and now it’ll take me days to get enough stuff for one chest 🤷🏻
And the thing with the Mantis was temporary: once the Mantis got stronger, you could slowly move on up to about your level… I don’t see how this will happen here, unless there’s yet another event ship around the corner to “solve” the problem 🙈

[trim vigil]

Max your cerritos/titan-a hostile shield ability if you haven't.

Then use janeway/doc/torres or tucker.

You only take hull damage the first weapon salvo... the rest gets absorbed by janeways captain ability.
BUT you need enough shields to get you through the rounds.

For a 46... you take 200k hull dmg round 1, 150k hull round 2, 180k round 3, 210k round 4. Then like maybe 20k round 5+ since the crit chance falls off the hostile

Logs for 49s hull dmg taken
R1: 400k R2: 300k R3: 480k R4: 600k R5+: 36k

[sinful quail]

thx, I’ll give that a go tomorrow. Cerritos research is still otw, but getting there.

[sinful heart]

You shouldn’t have to buff to do a grind. If you HAVE to buff to complete a game loop, then that loop is scaled wrong. END. OF. STORY.

[elder fern]

Which would make sense if the more difficult hostiles weren't quite so difficult to kill...

[trim vigil]

I don't need to buff to do the missions, it's just dumb not to.

Extra mitigation, extra base damage, extra crit chance, extra crit damage. Those logs were from a unbuffed, no exo battle log this morning before reset

[silver briar]

This is exactly like the xindi which was clearly not tested or scaled well for lower ops 40s. They do not listen to feedback so they are going to get less gameplay and no money from me. Nobody asked for harder hostiles or to spend more time grinding loops.

[deep lichen]

The Silent Enemy ships are absurdly strong and they have ZERO to do with the ST: Enterprise arc, considering NX-01 isn't even needed to destroy them. Why introduce them in the first place, other than to get players to spend money needlessly in order to compete? When an event enemy is, in some ways, stronger than a regular in-game enemy like the Borg, it's gone too far.

[elder peak]

If nothing else, players know how to grind. The problem with the first event was that it was in a token system. No amount of repair and resend can compensate for a lack of tokens, especially with an enemy as OP’d as the Silent Enemy.

[sinful quail]

With the Xindi you can kill lower level hostiles and get less, so more grind for less, which is OK for me as an incentive to go higher. Here the lvl 44 loot is useless at OPS 46 🤬

[trim vigil]

My guess is a ship skin will allow nx-01 to successfully kill regular xindi by extending the ship ability to regular non-aquatic xindi.
As for why the nx is in the ex-borg faction store idk. But the emergency protocol researches def help in grinding. Using burning/hull breach/moral on the correct ship types finally starts paying off.

[jovial kestrel]

If Scopely is wondering about the Silent Enemies event, this is a total bust for anyone below lvl 41ish. In my SLB bracket from yesterday, only seven people scored in the event. That alone should show that it's borked and frankly this entire arc/event store is a waste given that we won't be getting the Enterprise coins in any worthwhile amount.

[deep lichen]

That's not what I'm saying. I'm asking why Scopely introduced an enemy that has NOTHING to do with the Xindi AND, when you go back and watch the show, NX-01 was able to destroy them by just installing phase cannons? There's no way the in-game NX-01 can destroy even the lowest level silent enemy ship.

[viral monolith]

I do not think this arc was very well thought out for fair and productive gameplay.

[young breach]

I think what is hard for many is that up until very recently Scopely has given players every reason to skip Epic 50 warships. There has been very little benefit to having them. This means that an Ops 46 player has very similar killing capability as an Ops 52 player. With freebooters, dailies, and events until recently, this has not been an issue. Waiting for a 53 warship has been the smart play. However, Waves, Xindi, and Silent Killers has changed that. Scopely built our expectations and decisions one way, then flipped it on its head. They need to take a long hard look at the 46-52 bracket. That’s where most of the difficulty is coming from.

[hexed kernel]

I could care less if the silent enemy is in the game. Why make the third arch rely on them for the final arch currency. I can't get enough currency finish off the character.s. also the store is aweful

[trim vigil]

Ehm. The xindi and silent were both involved with the enterprise, so makes sense they are in the nx-01 arcs

A ship skin would probably be the key to the madness with the regular xindi/silent

[deep lichen]

I know they were. I'm saying that NX-01 was able to destroy the silent enemy, but the NX-01 in Scopely's game can't.

[verbal mortar]

I'm ops 53, got my Vorcha last week. Can't get it to T2 yet and can't kill lvl 51 silent hostiles, so I can't refine anything as I don't have an option for the 4* stuff. The event store I thought would have had NX-01 in it to allow players to get more blueprints but obviously that wouldn't make money for Scopely. That's all they're interested in. The SLB when you hit ops 50/ 51 have ops 60+ in them so it makes 100 x more difficult to get a decent position in them or they set the amount of hostiles or scores so high it takes ages to complete the events. I think I need to ask Scopely for a job just so I can play the game and finish the events.

[trim vigil]

In testing a t8 Newton with Cerritos buff vs 51s and 53s.
51s were not a issue.

[deep lichen]

Also, NX-01 parts sourcing for upgrading is has been absurd this entire arc unless you decide to fork out $100 to buy Scopely's upgrade pack.

[verbal mortar]

I wasn't able to get the doctor and I wasn't paying for him so waiting for shards of him to drop in the G5 rare armada chests or the artifact refinery

[trim vigil]

Just saying a ship skin is 99.99999% coming to resolve this. (Every ship seems to have at least two)

I just got the nx-01 during incursions and it's going to be t2 today. So seems fair so far (a tier a week?)
Doing the training arcs helps with everything but parts so far.

[trim vigil]

You don't "need" the doctor.

You can swap hull breach officers (gorkon/lorca) if you want to take more hull damage and less shield dmg while increasing output dmg.

The combat logs will tell you everything you need to know.

[verbal mortar]

I'll give that a go. Thank you

[velvet quartz]

Temporal Artifact Hunter SMS has stopped scoring points!

[potent umbra]

Another arc more bugs on top of the already ignored bugs 💩🤦‍♂️

[upbeat ferry]

L39’s on server 31. That is all that decided to compete/score in this event. I think that more then tells the tale of how this event was received.

[half panther]

This is yesterday's slb for ops 38-39 on server 91. FIVE players were able to score in that event. People can't kill the silent hunters, scale them down! This is visual proof of your flawed mechanic. I will not be purchasing this month's battle pass until this is fixed.

[quiet shale]

I don't think us sub 40 were supposed to score so big ups yo you 5 💪

[proud creek]

this was ops 38-39 on S-21. Do better Scopely

[keen egret]

You need to purchase the "Do Better Prime". It has 187 levels and is $99 for each level for the first 5. Then it's a sliding scale after that. Lvl 186 to 187 requires 47 $99 purchases. That gets you 100% of the "Do Better Base". Which will work out to .0000003% doing better.

[light canyon]

Man production rate is super freaken slow now , never has it been this slow before and I have tc Spock with active resources almost maxed and it is taking all day to produce stuff for me to pull. This game is going to the garbage with all this lag and glitches

[toxic crater]

I’m getting tired of seeing events and promotions that cater only to higher level players. If we don’t start seeing more stuff for the newer players, you’re going to see a lot of us leaving. Penalizing players who didn’t know about the game immediately after its release is asinine! Some of us started playing because someone else was playing. But, hey! I was looking for entertainment when I came here…and I can move on to something else if I’m not valued here.

[clever patrol]

I find it extremely frustrating that as an ops 53 player (admittedly no G5 ship yet), I am required to kill lvl 51 silent enemies that I cannot beat with T8 G4 rare ships, even using exocmps and Cerritos buffs. My ships typically don’t last beyond round 3 with the recommended Severus/Decius/Char crew. Janeway/Torres/Doctor gets to round 9, but only half kills the 51. I don’t have an NX-01, G4 epic, or a G5 ship and the game/event mechanics don’t care.

It’s tough to want to spend the $20 for the battlepass, which is almost an automatic day 1 purchase. Forget about spending $100s on primes that appear to be necessary to complete the most basic arc events. If you are trying to provide fun and engaging game play, you are failing. If you are trying to drive a player that spends, albeit modestly, away from the game…you may yet succeed.

[novel mango]

The payouts for events just plan suck so far this arc.

[trim vigil]

That was test run #1. Cerritos buff only - no exos. Ops level 50

[placid shard]

46 ops and 0 chance to complete silent events. I can't kill 46-49 silents or enough with only 2 tokens a day to score enough to complete. But I can kill 55+ freebooters using kelvin or Newton. Have a hard time with 44 silents using suggested crews but the loot is useless to me I can't redeem it.

[wanton anvil]

L54 and I can kill the silent hostiles required for the event/daily pull in the artifact Gallery. But many in my alliance cannot. It is frustrating for them -they cannot earn event store currency. The event store has nothing that I want/need (except maybe Trip shards). The very players that need this event store to catch up are locked out due to this badly designed feature.

[clever patrol]

Interesting. Your Newton is only 1M more power than mine, with vastly different results. If I may ask, what crew did you have below decks? And which FT did you have on it?

[thin salmon]

And you want them to screw us more? It’s nearly impossible to end the solo event kill what the refineries level ask. That’s why you have so many lvl50 kill lvl40. And for zero rewards cause you can’t use the loot in refineries. At lvl55 you need to knock down lvl55-59 that loot rare 5* but you can’t leave them a scratch we the right crew and a t5 green ship

[true radish]

I found a crew to successfully kill lvl46 silent enemies (janeway doctor Ent E data, below decks torres, hugh, odo, tendi). But the big issue with the SLB and SMS was tokens, no way to complete hitting my level, had to hit down to lvl41s to complete event. So now I have currency I'll never use. Would be better to eliminate tokens and have these open systems so people can kill what they can, repair and come back with fearing they can't complete event without sacrificing being able to pull a chest in new loop.

[pale mulch]

So after Losing Thousands of Credits for Finishing Wave 10 but the Game says Complete Wave ten but Gives Wave 9 Defeat Rewards after and other things like this for Weeks I swear I have lost easily 6k Plus Section 31 Credits. I just now did a Buggy wave that we died on Wave 5 and I got Nothing just a repair Bill for my Ships. And wasted time. 😒 I Hail from Server 93 I also don't want to put tickets in every time something goes wrong as it happens a lot with different things.

[pliant forum]

Heres the problem i see....the 49s are too big of a jump from 46s almost dbl the hull health not to mention dmg/def....on my set up i can kill 18-20 46 ints (per trip) which allows me to take home 10k in loot BUT i can only kill 2 49 Ints (per trip) to take home only 1.9k rare loot...the 49s thus are cloggin up the system turning this loop grind into a MULTIPLE hour watch for the 46 ints......pls FIX THIS!!!!! the power difference in 1 system is rediculous....you guys got lazy and didnt want to spread the hostile levels over more systems like EVERY other token space....i dont have an issue with any other part of this grind except this point (previously posted in gen feedback but realized its better here)

[sick eagle]

The events where you have qualifying events for a final event - maybe have some posting of the final event in advance so folks know if they've qualified? Or dont remove the previous LB event results, so you can check if you need to rush the 2nd or 3rd qualifier??

[pale mulch]

Also, I was Talking about Waves but I agree with you as well about this new Grind. 💯

[pliant forum]

my post wasn't related to yours or waves....did i imply something otherwise?...sorry for any confusion

[spice ravine]

<@&509691205798592532> @everyone The really sad thing about the whole Silent Enemies thing is that the big players write that they don't have enough tokens to complete the events at their level. So they have to hunt smaller silent enemies whose loot they can never convert. Middle players manage to complete the events with difficulty and players 38-42 have no chance of completing the events at all.
And Scopely doesn't give a damn that everyone writes that they should finally adapt the difficulties of these enemies to real possibilities. This shows how much Scopely cares about their players. As long as money flows, not at all is the only truth.

[sinful quail]

Thx, this waa very useful.

[dark horizon]

how unexpected ... /s ... Apex event is live, no Armadas in any of the lvl 40 sytems .... i'm shocked /s

[fresh grove]

If y'all are having problems killing silent hostiles, try: Severus, decius and char or Janeway, Doc, Trip Tucker

[elder sleet]

Whats up witb the lack of armadas in Eclipse space… this has been a problem for a month now?

[dark horizon]

it has been like this for several months

[elder sleet]

Well it needs fixed

[strong anchor]

Utterly ridiculous! I’m sitting on a pile of uncommon temporal disruptors (that are blue — since when are uncommons blue?) … and SURPRISE! They’re of no use to me.

My T6 Corvus can barely kill 2 in the system with actual rares.

At only 2 warp tokens a day, this loop is even more ridiculous than Xindi that erase your shields & crits and Waves that run hostiles 2-3x stronger than they are in open systems.

[strong ether]

Hoshi Sato Avatar says "earned from BattlePass overflow" but it is not shown in overflow event.

[crisp jetty]

Ops 53 with a T4 G5 uc (no upgrades). I kill the lvl 51 silent hositles without issue and have been able to max refine each day. I use Janeway/doc/edata (Torres/hugh/ghrush below decks). Completed my sms with 2 tokens as far as the slb I didn't bother because I was in the bracket with g6🤷🏾‍♂️.

[vagrant topaz]

silent hostiles this is a terrible arc as with game we need an overhaul the rewards are poor the lag means Railway workers go faster than this game you keep saying were online less impossible when u add new grind for pointless rewards so stop new Arcs sort lag and sort game we need new events instead of reconstituted games on same day every week

[mighty swift]

OK been may issues with this arc so far. But going to just ask. If certain ops ranges can only refine a certain type of temporal material and the systems are gated. Why not make the keys and gates accessible only by those in that range. IE 4unc system requires 4 unc key. 5* rare systems require 5* rare key. Which is acquired only by appropriate ops in there faction store. Oh and tone down the hostiles so the bottom ops lvls can kill a few.

[chrome oracle]

Same (T4 G5 though Ops 54), but I see the issue others are having. Example being that Ops 51 and 52 have to hit the same hostiles as we do. But unless they have an Epic 4* they're not likely going to be able to kill even 1 51. Not sure even a maxed Rare 4* can kill one of those. If they have a T10 Talios max components, they can get 1 or 2 kills, tested my T10 since I could spare the token

[crisp jetty]

That's a more rational thought out response and I concur. Those in between ops are always going to be an issue. I just wanted to give different feedback that it isn't all bad.

Now the requirements of ops 38 - 39 being the same as ops 40-45 is utterly ridiculous. Ops 38-41 should have lower level hostiles to hit

[chrome oracle]

ouch didn't realize they were same, definetely should have smaller ones. Heck I think we should have level 30 waves too for the smaller players. My alliance isn't exactly tiny (100+) so if we get randoms that aren't using 5* ships, they're very likely to get booted from the wave being too weak to help

[sonic robin]

The event store really needs to be expanded, it's incredible lackluster at the moment. It should include NX-01 shards, more officers, more refits,....

[last lance]

I like the new silent hostile loop. There is a passive drip so you can participate without hitting the hostiles. The hostiles are pretty easy to take out, and that grind allows you to speed up the acquisition of the new artifacts. Loop doesn't take very long, pretty good overall. Only complaint I have is the tokens. Remove the token requirement.

[cold quiver]

Can you put all of these 18 day long events in their own tab cause im sick of having to scroll by them all the time while checking what needs to be done?

[trim vigil]

Maetreon Cascade Warhead (@ 700% dmg bonus)

[crisp jetty]

Have you thought about putting Torres below deck for hull breach and using edata on the bridge?

[rough scarab]

@wanton copper Please add pve/hostile to phlox officer ability

[trim vigil]

No. Torres is level 5. 10% chance for hull breach. And has no decent stats to buff docs ability.

Each fight contains:

46s last 2-3 rounds
49s last 3-4 rounds
51s last 5-6 rounds.

E-data's extra iso dmg is insignificant vs the extra janeway synergy.

[crisp jetty]

Torres being only tier 1 makes sense. But edata iso damage can't be mitigated. Might want to try him

[trim vigil]

Full janeway synergy means you only take hull damage from the first weapon Salvo each round.

Anything further on that round goes 100% to shields after mitigated dmg is removed.

Grinding = least hull dmg per hostile.

Once everyone gets the ex-borg research and below deck moral/HB/burning up to snuff, 20% hull will be restored each round. And these won't be a issue.

[crisp jetty]

I get 22-25 using the crew I suggested. I'm ops 53 with a t4 uc g5 (no upgrades) . As always everyone's mileage may vary

[trim vigil]

22-25 level 51s?

Im OPS level 50

My t8 G4 Newton (no t9 weapon/shield upgrades) gets about 10-12 51s when testing but I can only refine rare from 46-49s.

I get maybe
50-80 46s...
30-40 49s...

If I could ever get a "perfect run" vs just explorer hostiles it would be better

*I'm sitting on 5 days worth of triple turn-in rss so it's not really a issue

[crisp jetty]

Yes, lvl51's.

[mild glacier]

This is a MAJOR problem with the silent hostiles. The average player can not kill even a single one of the higher level hostiles in the system required for them to get the refining materials. Combined with the fact that these are token access systems means we either have to sit all day waiting for someone who CAN kill one or two of them, then we all rush to that one spawned hostile, or we have to waste our tokens on lower level systems to do events with zero worthwhile return. The token access needs to be removed and the deep space fog needs to be removed so we can see if it’s even worth the trip

[fluid gust]

or the rewards need to scale with the effort required.

even for people who can easily hunt 10+ of the higher level ones, there's no incentive to hunt only those when they can instead hunt 30 of the lower level ones for 2.5x the loot.

[potent umbra]

Again another arc with more bugs, issues, and glitches. Every arc more problematic than one before. Why💩

[mild moth]

Scopless call it quality over quantity….

[potent umbra]

Getting old. What good is quality if it doesn’t work

[balmy oracle]

https://tenor.com/view/quality-quality-work-sarcasm-ouch-hammer-gif-12270508

[astral talon]

We wouldn’t know bc this isn’t quality

[long goblet]

Has something changed with Silent Hunters?

On launch day I was able to kill 9 46's with my Newton in 1 run, now I can't kill more than 2. I am using the same crew as on launch day.

AND, what am I supposed to do with the Uncommon Loot? Apparently I cannot spend it as I can only spend Rare loot!

Yet another 'well thought out' addition to STFC.

@wanton copper

[novel mango]

I have always wonder why uncommon is uncommon when there is no common.

[rapid eagle]

Feedback on SMS's tied to killing silent ones or earning temporal disruptors:

I'm an OPs 39 player

On first day of arc, there was an slb based on killing silent ones, I took my T8 Augur into the token system several times, trying out the various recommended crews and a few variations...each time i blew up in system without even coming close to killing a lvl 41 explorer silent one. I watched the slb, and for my bracket (ops 35-39) we only had 2 people that were able to even score on our entire server.

The SMS right after that ends today for earning temporal disruptors had me in a similar boat, you needed 3 daily pulls and one pull off kills from silent ones...see the above for why i cannot get a daily pull off silent ones yet lol.

I'm fine with new content that i cannot participate in yet, but i very much dislike having a regular arc driven slb/sms that i cannot even participate in or finish reasonably. particularly when there is event currency tied to said slb/sms.

[warm kestrel]

I’ve been at lvl 46 for 2 weeks. My Pilum is T3 and can’t get to the system I’m supposed to farm. Didn’t even realize I needed to farm a particular system till last night and have been wasting tokens on the 41-44 system, wondering how to score in the event. Strongest ship that can reach the 46 system is grossly underpowered, regardless of which I-don’t-have-Tucker crew I use. Stop making loops that are so difficult to get started. You push us into leveling up and then punish us for doing so. It’s an event store month and I’m not able to participate…and y’all wonder why you have trouble retaining higher level players 🤷‍♂️

[small narwhal]

51s can be killed with a t8 rare with Cerritos boost. Hard to get enough for the double pull (I got about 5500 on my maiden run) but probably doable with more research improvements etc. 53s are too hard though, so will also depend on whether you can get enough 51s before buffs run out.

[chrome oracle]

Great to know! Rares doing better than I expected. Would have figured Epics would have to be T8. So a maxed 4* Rare at least stands a very good chance of doing okay. But man that's a lot of RSS to dump into a ship

[small narwhal]

Yeah the boost makes the difference, without it I doubt I’d survive more than one 51. A t8 epic might be able to do it unboosted.

[celest edge]

Only issue is that the boost is timed, and we're finding our systems filled with higher ops levels trying to complete their SMS rather than hitting the systems designed (poorly) for their ops level. So you might very well run out of boost before hitting a single hostile.

[small narwhal]

Yeah I went after the sms/slb was done, so the system was basically empty. Going to be a lot harder if it’s crowded for sure.

[chrome oracle]

What crew are you using btw, I run the Janeway, Doctor, E-Data with B-elanna, Hugh, Paris below deck. That said I can put B'elanna on bridge in place of Doctor, but that requires maxing stats instead of running Doctor below deck and better if juiced up

[small narwhal]

Went with this, not sure if full synergy would also work for me. Paris Hugh Tendi below + stat stick, so didn’t actually use doc loot boost. Wanted to go for as much damage as I could since I wasn’t sure if I could actually kill them. (That’s the last battle before dying)

[warm cave]

umm ticketed events not rewarding event store?

[limpid galleon]

indeed, this is just stupid, why are there no event store shards in the ticketed events!?

[spark trail]

No Event Store currency?!

[vagrant topaz]

Cause the store is still bad, no additional currency needed 🤣

[chrome oracle]

Ain't that the truth 😂

[novel mango]

No event store credit with ticket events? Might just be worst event store yet!

[wide lava]

Scopely is dumb, can't even put the proper ticket events out. Trying to encourage people to spend $$$, but really they're more likely to encourage people to quit all together.

[past willow]

Between that and the very high bar to get the currency from events so far (silent enemies)...you might be right. But there's still time for them to turn things around...

[novel mango]

That why it’s so bad they are being super cheap to try and force spending. It won’t work with me but that what they are trying to do.

[odd dock]

probably why they asking for things to put into the event store ... because they know you cant earn the currency to get it .. yokels

[feral finch]

me too. 🥳 Next arc without spend some into battlepass. In the morning, I talked to a colleague it would be better. But nothing changed - it was just a bit of hope.

[true radish]

Thanks Scopely! Yet another reason for me to not care about your game. No store currecny in tocket events??? Really??? Every other arch with event store has done this. This month, how many players can we purge? Not even officer shards in ticket events anymore l, you guys keep killing this game and its becoming even more obvious every month.

[simple widget]

No event currency in the ticket events? I've never played a game that seemed so intent on punishing players who plan ahead. This feeling of constantly getting screwed over is getting really old and starting to make me question why I'm even still here

[heavy ivy]

Cause we live for the abuse? Starting to feel like the only reason XD

[fierce sonnet]

@trim vigil I tried that Ent setup with Janeway and Kelvin Kirk and full BD crew. Still only getting 7 silent kills per hull. That OPS 38/39 player was FTP or did they have crazy prime researches?

[warm cave]

just realized theres not even holodeck parts in the event store, and they left out the month of picard E officers

[cedar lily]

Isn't this the little in-between event store?

[molten marlin]

no

[proper dawn]

@queen kindle To get the ent-E officers, scopely is pushing us to Terrirory and Wave Defense season battle passes. Making them available in the store is contrary to that business plan. ☹️

[foggy locust]

This New arc is useless. I can't kill a single level 51 of the new hostiles so I can't complete my events...

[vagrant topaz]

@full swan I like the silent enemy thing. You get 2 tokens a day for free, fly there and have enough loot for 2 boxes. No extra ship for 100€ this month. The bugs are a huge problem and are more annoying than anything else. But that is now always at the start of the new Bug Arc. 🫤 But okay... I’m accepted the game as Star Trek BUG Command... I can also handle it

[gloomy silo]

The mixed hostiles in the systems is a bad idea. The 46 system has only 49s floating around and everyone racing after a 46 when they pop up. Poor design, put 49s in a 49 system, surely not difficult?

[dense path]

So much for focus on quality this year

[full swan]

Glad you like the silent hostiles! And I agree that we need to get a handle on the bugs. Fix for error 200 is on the way.

[molten marlin]

This is my main issue with them.

[hasty void]

great, what about silent in Q trials? or the xindi 9 shot disquised as FKR in Q trial? but missing wave defense hostiles, fix 100% because waves cant be easier

[cold onyx]

We normally have the "Super Event Store" in April, August & December. Is this current event store replacing what is normally in the April Event Store?
Hard to believe Scopely would stack the Event Store 2 months in a row, but want to make sure.

[molten marlin]

this is that super event store

[full swan]

I feel like I've been seeing less mentions of the aquatic hostiles in the Q trials. Think its still happening, but on a much smaller scale. How often are you seeing it?

[hasty void]

I currently have two of my three current (level 3) trials hostiles with silent and the FKR xindi

[cold onyx]

Love when they change things up, its a month early 🙄. Does the Mantis show up in the store? Im currently OPS 32 and I dont see it as an option. @zenith wing does this mean that the future "Super Event Stores" will also be a month early this year?

[zenith wing]

mantis shows up at ops 33

[molten marlin]

They occur after 3+ part arcs

[cold onyx]

Okay thanks, it was just coincidence that they fell on the months of April, August and December, its actually to celebrate the end of an arc.

[sterile yew]

I just had a silent enemy show up on mine. Is that supposed to happen? It is a 2* explorer trial.

[molten marlin]

End of the longer arcs, the shorter ones usually get the dabo event stores, with like rss/officer trait xp, territory stuff, et cetera

[manic estuary]

OK I want to see references for the answer to Q2 in the trivia!!!

@sterile wharf 👆

[celest edge]

@full swan Is this by design that the first objective for EVERY PLAYER (The Great Eye of Ara) isn't included in the scoring metric of the SLB? What's the deal?

Seems to be missing in the Heroic SMS as well. 🤔

[molten marlin]

none of the uncommons are

[celest edge]

Ahh, I should've recognized a spender event. Got it

[lime osprey]

Really disappointed the ticketed events don't reward the event store currency as it usually does at the end of an arc. I always save up my tickets for these event stores.

[sharp cave]

Why take event store currency out of the ticket events???

[mental plaza]

@wanton copper put parts of this refit for us in the event store, it would help a lot
@here Guys who also need to like here to see if we can do it, this would make life easier with the ship parts!

[molten marlin]

we've been asking for like a year. (we as in players) buggers won't even put it on the regular store.

[warm kestrel]

Scopely, even with Cerritos buff this crew can’t get it done. Lvl 46 for two weeks and you put out an event store arc that I can’t even participate in. This arc is trash

[rough scarab]

I mean its a defiant. Its no better than wet toilet paper. Not really suppose to grind with that.

[molten marlin]

Defiant isn't great against hostiles on a normal day, defintely not the right choice for the silent enemies.

[zenith wing]

at ops 46 you should definitely have a ship that's 25m+ if not 35m+

[somber hinge]

what brings such a ship, when 5 player stay in the system waiting for 46er hostile to spawn? increase the spawn rates or even implement a minimum appearance like actian apex! Many player need a buff for this lately introduced ressource inflation reduction stuff...

[copper scroll]

So is anyone actually playing the arc as it was intended or is everyone pretty much ignoring the silent things and only hitting them below the actual tier we are supposed to? I can’t help fear this arc has fallen flat on its ass.

[warm kestrel]

That's mah point. The warp range is way too high for someone like myself who just went to 46 2 weeks ago. Pilum is T3 and doesn't have the range. And every attempt costs a token. I'm better off saving them up untill I can get a bigger ship up there

[open beacon]

Yeah, ish. A single run of l46 hostile nets me 7k of loot so sort of worth the time. Its still another grind though. I'm l49 with a 43m t7 newton using janeway, doc, Edata as crew.

[rough scarab]

Thats why my alliance recommends to our players to have a T7 42 ship with T8 warp or Mona at the equivalent before going 45/46 unless they can immediately bring a 46 ship to T4

[rough scarab]

I mean im L46 with a 44M Kori which can get 12-14k in loot on 1 token/hull if I only kill the L46 hostiles and it takes about 10-20 minutes max. The biggest issue now is the spawning. Luckily, I usually go when there’s barely anyone awake 😂.

[frail needle]

That is normal if you lvl up your ops too early to go fast for the new ships. I believe damage + mitigation researches are also missing ? With the new addition of many ex-borg faction research + cube, monaveen dmg research . You are meant to finish all researches before you go to higher ops. Adding buildings dmg,health, shield increase as well (Court of Q, subspace relay, armory, mess hall and Artifact Gallery, The Facade ) .

[distant crane]

I expect that Scopely extends the events that ends at next event reset to by 24 hourse since the game is unplayable atm.

[ionic vault]

Anyone else hitting hirogens and it not counting towards the BP event? I'm stuck at 11.7k/13.75k

[distant steeple]

If you are in an EU server it could he due to the current lag issues since this morning.
Maybe restart the game and see if that corrects your score.

[ionic vault]

Server 187, APAC I've restarted PC client and mobile game both giving the same issue

[polar berry]

Still going on. Wave systems are dead, normal systems have 'scanning' issues. Green buttons have spinning wheels instead of text for at least a few seconds. It's server related.

[distant steeple]

This is already known, it’s not your ISP as it is affecting so many servers, with players from various countries.

[warm blaze]

The usual weekly server issues 🤣🙈

[novel mango]

I bet they don’t.

[terse spruce]

Is there any chance of The Stone of Memory, Nero’s Trident temporal artifacts coming to the iOS store soon? Before the SMS is over?

[fluid gust]

why not use the website?
you'll get more extras that way.

[terse spruce]

Because the web site lists prices in CAD and charges my CC in USD so the exchange rate always ends up costing a few bucks more. It adds up over time—and no, I don’t really find the multiphasics worth that premium.

[queen hearth]

put event store tokens back into the ticketed events.

[fading venture]

Quit changing the milestones on recruit sms, seriously 3m point increase over archer is just idiotic.

[unreal coral]

have you bumped up the milestones in heroic sms yet again? like 3rd month in a row

[prime harness]

This mat spending event is the worst ever. Pholx, did I spell that right? You guys are really scraping the bottom of the barrel.

[drifting jackal]

Stop increasing the heroic spend sms!!! Its one of the reasons we the players think scopely hates us which decreases player spending

[high aurora]

Increasing the Heroic SMS by 35%? You guys just can't stop taking L's and angering your community. Every time you try and do something that could be seen as good (Borg Loot) you turn around and do something like this and eranse ANY Positive playerbase sentiment. Stop being so greedy and stop giving us reasons to not spend. We're not stupid, we can do math. When your jack up milestones in an attempt to get peple to spend, we won't.

[vagrant topaz]

@wanton copper @full swan I get that scopely are well known for screwing the player base, but this might be the tightest Event Store month I've ever seen. Usually the ticket events give event store currency and there's events to earn currency every day. This month ticket events just give the usual resources and there's no event to earn event store currency at all today?!? I don't get it? Why bother? At the currency prices put on a lot of the items people will be lucky to get anything they want.

[bold quest]

What the heck is this? I hit 10mill with the first SMS and then a second larger SMS shows up??? I’m guessing my points from the first SMS won’t count. This is why I do not spend money on this game anymore. Tons of bugs and weird stuff like this.

[rough scarab]

If you hit milestones in both, you will get shards from both. Consider yourself actually lucky. Unless ur a 60+ where they added a second sms cuz they got a crazy xslb

[warm blaze]

It is absolutly trolling to add a second sms when people already have scored or finished the first, the greed for money from scopay becomes more and more worse....

Would wish scopay would spend at least more of the money for stable servers....

[odd dock]

dont bother cause he is broke
apparently does the opposite of what he supposed to belowdeck

[limpid galleon]

srsly? >.>

[lucid idol]

Scopely messed up? NEVERRRR

[odd dock]

this whole arc is 1 massive 💨
and they going to blame players for it, increase all the milestones another 35%, packs will increase 100%, to pay for the overtime to fix it all

yes, he apparently decreases the charge you gain from hostiles, not reducing the charge required to reach 100% (basically the opposite of what he supposed to do)

[fading venture]

Lol sounds about right, these guys couldn't hit the broad side of a barn if you aimed the gun for them.

[turbid cloak]

Waves is just a joke. Need to do them for faction store but still can't see hostiles. Wasted so many starts. Decent compo better be on way for missed faction trade ins

[limpid galleon]

Waves are broken at the moment -.-

[potent umbra]

But the hot fix took care of that. 😂🤦‍♂️. So 7 days of wave 10 completions to be awarded in comp 🤞💩

[limpid galleon]

your word i scopelys ear xD hahahaha

[floral hound]

Why did they raise the required spend for the recruit sms? Did mat payouts increase somewhere? Or Were too many players getting the officers?

[rough scarab]

Probably too many people unlocked archer, probably why they pulled the 3rd slb and now the higher spend

[willow coral]

Thank you for "normal" tix event rewards vs event store loot. Absolutely nothing i'd consider buying at ops 23 - well maybe a dvor, but i'm not in any rush

[prime harness]

I'm not upgrading my ships or buildings in an attempt to boycott this garbage Pholx event. Hopefully you all come to your senses and add an 9fficer worth chasing.
Talk about a game going downhill.

[verbal surge]

close to a 50% increase on the third milestone and only 2 weekends to get Phlox
Quite cheap tactics, I'll return the favour by not spending at all

[mild moth]

Why don't players under 61 get two sms events for Phlox? Why isn't this done fairly for everyone? @wanton copper @full swan .

[dusty widget]

because we don't spend enough money on the game.

[prime harness]

If they give me content I like, I'll spend.

[warm kestrel]

The point is, as soon as you hit level 46 the loop expects you to have a rare 4* ship that is at least Tier 4 (just got mine there a min ago) in order to reach and (hopefully) kill the hostiles you need to kill. Yet, to get that ship, you have to get to ops 46 and then complete multiple buildings and purchase the BPs. And then you still have to tier it up in order to reach the required system. Would be much better if there was a 44-46 bracket where I could kill the bigger hostiles in the smaller system and then after the Pilum becomes my most powerful ship I could transition to the small ships in the big system. Better yet, don't introduce a new loop every month.

rant: in fact, it is not scopely's intent that we level up all research and buildings before leveling up ops. and this channel is for feedback to scopely, not for advise on how to deal with what scopely has given/done to us. Further, I'm not new to the game and unaware that things need done before leveling up. I'm behind on court of q (20), subspace relay (26) & section 31 store (31) but everything else worth building is mostly @ 45/46 (none are below 42) and my mess hall is lvl 65. Research tracks the same for the most part, a little behind on some of the newer stuff, outlaw tree is nearly maxed for level, all research requiring 3* mats was completed at 39 as was just about everything else available at that time. And none of that addresses the issue that everyone at the bottom ends of the brackets is feeling right now

[frail needle]

Problem is ops and lvl's are not like in the past. So if in the past reaching your main buildings to ops 46 and having Pilum was enough to kill majority of hostiles, now it is not. Now you need to lvl up all the special buildings + the new researches to ops 46 lvl to be consider a true ops 46 player. Having Pilum and main building to ops 46 is not .

[vagrant topaz]

61 + had a xlbs in which all 1600 players (worldwide) were😬 that's why there was a second sms... as an "excuse".

[signal ferry]

What happened to the Lucky Porthos Avatar in the Recruit Phlox SLB, I dropped 7mil points trying to get the avatar

[vast goblet]

Really makes me want to stick at Ops46 and work on these buildings and researches. Why level up Ops and make my life harder? Nothing worthwhile now till Ops53 unless you count the extra dock at 48. Ops 47 to Ops 53 have almost become a dead zone

[rough scarab]

Pretty much

[potent forge]

I wish I had a backsies on my ops 47 push. I’m not speeding it up I have 180 days left

[sinful quail]

Guess what the average life expectancy is for lvl 46 hostile 😂

[static onyx]

@wanton copper material heroic recruit SMS gets impossible, my ops42 bracket gone up to 6,1mil. Do to material reduction researches/favors/artifacts/primes it gets harder on it's own to score. If I would go to ops46 and build a pilum to t6 right now this would only award 2,07 mil points. So I would need to build 3x pilums to t6 to complete the heroic SMS from a lower bracket? That looks kind of broken to me...

[oblique ridge]

Why have some events reset an hour early? Don’t tell me this is daylight savings again. It’s high time you sorted this out so everything remains in sync.

[safe ether]

US summer time. Also note the lack of event store currency events again 😀

[balmy oracle]

They made a mistake, happens to the best, we can be glad normally there aren't bugs in this game or things going wrong 🤣

[pliant forum]

Zero.....they really need to spread the lvl ranges out of the silent systems.....15 aquatics systems 9 silents......wtf

[oblique ridge]

Yes but after 5 years you’d think they’d have figured out a way to keep all events on the same timing rather than some resetting an hour apart for more than 6 months of the year

[vagrant topaz]

@wanton copper @full swan Another day of events that contain ZERO event store currency. Why run an event store arc if you're going to severely throttle the amount of currency anyone can earn?!?! I can't figure out what's more broken, the dev team or the game?!?

[lusty bear]

Am I missing something... there are no new events, where I can earn enterprise coins for about 3 days. is this a bug or just bad planning by scopely? (I'm level 28 btw)

[vagrant topaz]

It's just bad planning by Scopely. Usually in an Event Store month all the ticket events, etc...have Event Store Currency as rewards, and there's normally at least one event a day to get currency too. This month, almost no events for currency at all. It's pathetic. Might as well have had a month without an update.

All they've done this month is break things that weren't even relevant to the content being updated, and create massive amounts of lag. Then put on an Event Store that no one can buy anything worthwhile from.

[lusty bear]

yeah, was planning to get all the special ships (disco, meridian, franklin, stella) but with that pace, I can be lucky to just get a 2nd one done...

[vagrant topaz]

Wondering when Scopely will realise their little cash grab business model is going to kill the game. Maybe when they have so few players they've merged everyone into one server. See how exciting the game gets for the last 100 Whales when they're all that's left

[light canyon]

Why I no rank here scopley I have spent a bunch of these coins. Its how I gotten my monveen and ktinga I also spent some on an officer yet no ranking at all? Thats bs!!!!

[lusty bear]

there is only the trivia event and there was a 3 day-event in the beginning of the arc. You can also get coins by spending the new artifact token - but I have no clue how to obtain them on my level. so no other sources to earn more of them.

in former events like that, youd hat at least 1 event with around 10k of the currency per day - I had hundrets of thousands coins at the eend of the event. The ticketed events gave coins - I even saved a lot of tickets to prepare. but only the usual rewards ....

[balmy oracle]

Don't need more of event store coins, it's nothing good in it

[viscid bough]

Same here! Omg, Scopely, unconscionable!

[noble citrus]

They run multiples of these, one just ended at reset and this just started at reset. You need to place in top 25 of at least one of them to qualify for the final run

[lusty bear]

also there still seems to be a bug in the limite time reseqarch, recruit and station event. sometimes I have players more than twice the ops level than mine. I dont know, ho I could be able to compete 🙂

[river merlin]

you dont welcome to the game

[solid tangle]

Why are there no 5 and 10 chest pulls here? The more expensive ships have them.

[celest edge]

Considering another loop has been added for this and the last 2 arcs, wouldn't it be prudent to keep to the format of having overlapping events? I believe it was explained before that the arc events mirroring the weekly events was done in an effort to reduce the grind (i.e. choosing a Swarm/Borg event for Swarm Sundays). What happened to that?
Perhaps in the future it would be best to run the Freebooters/Jem H'adar event on Thursdays, when the majority of players will be using those hostiles for the Cerritos event.

[south dust]

reseting the coin event an hour early was good,messed me up good,many thanks

[vagrant topaz]

Clocks went forward in the US today 3 weeks ahead of the rest of us. Expect "early" event starts till our clocks go forward. Sadly, Scopely being Scopely, they don't actually tell players things, they just do stuff and then hit the "ignore" button when players react.

[south dust]

being a newer player,this was not expected 🤷 a warning would have been nice

[celest edge]

Because you haven't spent any event coins. If you read the event scoring metrics you'll see that is the reason you haven't scored. This is the 2nd run of the event so coins you spent toward the previous event don't count toward the current one.

On the flip-side you didn't miss much. Anyone keeping up with their Borg loop likely already has Ghalanar maxed. So it's basically a garbage reward for spending event credits which have less sourcing available than previous events.
I ask again, who is in charge of marketing? And why are they still doing stuff like this when it's costing more & more players?
I'm surprised they didn't run a Syndicate SMS this week, knowing how many players are affected by the inability to do defense waves, it would be the perfect icing on the cake for this arc so far.

[lusty bear]

#⭐-official-announcements message 🙂

[south dust]

reading helps i guess

[oblique ore]

Can you look at the event currency amount please. Its ridiculous low this Time. Imo last Arc we had almost the double amount than this time. The whole event store thing make no sense, if you cannot get currency to buy something. And with the fact that there are only "herotic" recruitment SMS now, people will need more currency, not less...

[river merlin]

🤣 they want you to be sad and buy it from the store if that isnt obvious you are too trustworthy of corporation manipulation

[mild moth]

Scopely seems to be using 2024 primarily to test boundaries. For example: how brazenly can I lie to my customers (quality promise), how bad can I make store offers (International Women's Day), what is the limit of bad content (the last 3 arcs) and how stupid are customers in relation to the event store. (Few credits and poor selection)... ok and not to forget the massive unequal treatment of players in relation to the double sms that only 61+ get.

[fluid lotus]

They’ve been testing all that since the release of the game. They already know what players will suck up and players have been sucking this years content up 😂

[acoustic gorge]

i like to give some feedback on the event that is on right now. i been fun so far part last 3 days as events that give out the enterprise coin have been missing. which as upset quite lot of the players in game. yes the are all not happy about missing events for the enterprise coin. any chance of fix the problem caused by scopely? event planning has start good then got poor planned for enterprise coin events.

[scarlet summit]

"The team is currently investigating an issue that is affecting the following events:" before the event is live oO

[spark trail]

How do we score?

[amber pasture]

nuqDaq oh Archer Qep Sarin!

[rough ravine]

Okay, I get DST causing events to start an hour later due to the servers either following or not following it... however, why do some events adjust and others do not. This makes no sense if they are all operating on the same server. Completely screwed me up. Saw that the new events were out so reset my miners, and then noticed Lat Monday did NOT start even though other events did. Why is this not consistent across events?!

[novel mango]

Something seems to be missing.

[white kite]

I know where to go but not what to do!

[amber pasture]

I think its Klingon, something like "Where The Archer's Meeting of Sarin " They met in Rigel so traveling there now to see...

[stuck socket]

nothing in Rigel to click on

[lusty bear]

you have to translate it 🙂

[tight cypress]

anyone able to decrypt? "nuqDaq 'oH Archer qep Sarin"

[sterile yew]

No event store currency in the normal tickets and this crap for the rare event. This arc is trash.

[cinder flame]

Regardless of issues with other events, no justification for not starting Latinum Rush on time and only announcement of the reset delay 4 mins prior on Discord and not in-game. There needs to be a better way to notify people who are literally adjusting their plans around these events. Do better Scopely, I know you can!

[analog gazelle]

probably vulcan as the answer

[novel mango]

So where is lat rush? You started some events but not others? Timing should be same.

[broken crystal]

thats intended. really funny event

[amber pasture]

Its Klingon, use a klingon translator and it says "where is archer and sarin meet" which google says is Rigel x but nothing there

[vagrant topaz]

click the planet and the (i) on top

[slender narwhal]

Done it by spending ship xp

[stuck socket]

wow make it hard

[analog gazelle]

i know right its like a scavanger hunt to just find out what to do

[peak meteor]

Anyone notice these fools messed up the ticket events also? They had two day timers. Yesterday ticket events had one day left before reset on that time. Now they gone. Imaging planning your game play on them timers and now they 💨 😯 gladly I didn’t do any tickets due to the lame rewards.

[warm crest]

Sadly, they clearly can't do better.

[inner nova]

Not gone, just under seperate folders.

[past willow]

There's actually just two Ticketed Events folders so that's not as bad.

[willow plaza]

ugh that is correct. info on rigel x shows you

[dry dew]

@sterile wharf for some the description in Rigel X is wrong, they have upgrade station or crew but upgrading ships worked

[novel mango]

Less money on yachts more on testing.

[warm crest]

First they'd need to hire a team to do testing...

[fleet radish]

Those blonde interns from the escort service need entertainment 😂😍

[peak meteor]

Seen the two folders but both missing events that still had one day left on timer before reset. Scopley been running some ticket events as two day events. This was the case this arc. With reset today they took out three ticket events that still had one day left on their timers. Anyone that just unlocked them or was just slow doing them got screwed. They gone now.

[buoyant cape]

So... Nothing about the lack of latinum rush?

[slate coral]

I see the three events from yesterday, they still have less than a day left on their timers

[willow plaza]

won;t see lat rush for 20 more mins

[warm crest]

I still have the ones I chose not to do that had two day timers.

[novel mango]

It’s sad that we do seem to be the tester for scope. It’s also sad I am on Discord so much lately because they keep screwing up.

[light canyon]

Don’t see how to get this event finished without buying, I did every ticketed event and I always fall short on getting this. Just never enough tickets to complete this event to do the blue tickets and I refuse to buy the tickets since price is way to much for what little you get.

[broken crystal]

@light canyon the trick is to only do every second ticket event, but collect all tickets

[slender narwhal]

Save up till you have 9 then

[celest edge]

So the is the Univeral Translator broken? Because Rigel has ZERO to do with the actual answer for this event! Nor does the officer hint in the event description. Plus we JUST had a spend event! What the heck happened here?!

[raw bramble]

It does, just do some snooping on the planets

[molten marlin]

Not broken. The message translates as where archer met sarin, archer met sarin on rigel x, you go to rigel x and click the info in the corner to see the event info.

[rough ravine]

No issue for English speakers, but it appears that the actual information on Rigel is incorrectly translated to "Officer XP" instead of "Ship XP" for some languages.

[celest edge]

Okay, so how does the officer Hoshi Sato fit into this equation? And why didn't we get a better preface to this kind of trivia answer? Instead, players are trying everything within means to determine the correct answer & wasting even more time to complete the event.

[queen hearth]

changing the rare ricket event from being 3 usually 'ok' officers to choose to rando RNG galactic tokens is yet another quality move.

[obsidian quiver]

As far as I can tell it's "Where is Archer and Sarin?"

[wraith zephyr]

Why is the reward for one Ticketed Event (The Riker Maneuver) twice as much as the other two Ticketed Events? I don't wanna do pvp, I don't really need crystal, but if the reward is twice as big? I'll use the crystal eventually I guess... 🤷

[obsidian quiver]

Ok encypted transmission. Go to Rigel 10 where arecher and Sarin meet. Click on the planer then the info button and follow the directions. Good luck

[tight cypress]

You just have to upgrade any ship using ship xp or finish any research.

[trim gazelle]

@wanton copper Please refund event tickets spent on mining events with the assumption of synergy between buried treasures

[keen temple]

Officer XP not working for event Universal Translator I

[molten marlin]

clear your localization, the text should be updated, it's research and ship xp

[runic pumice]

Hotfix did not fix error 200 code in Milasup System when trying to summon assimilated scouts....still broke

[hot tulip]

I would very much like to dock my full miners, is the burried treasure event going to go live today?

[covert ginkgo]

If you’re not buying tickets, you have to skip the events for 1 or 2 weekends to save enough to do all 9 on the 3rd.

[coarse prairie]

nuqDaq ‘oH Archer qep Sarin translates to where archer and Sarin meet… our event doesn’t tell us what to do… I’m sure that others have tried a variety of things, but I can state categorically that pve and pvp don’t do it

[molten marlin]

spend ship xp or do 75k worth of power in research. The answer to the translation is rigel x, the planet rigel x in the rigel sysem has a info button with the actual event information

[sharp lark]

This event might be fun if it wasn't technically behind a pay wall. Like the mechanic is a fun idea but having to recruit Hoshi (or rely on Alliance or Discord) for the answer kinda ruins it.

[covert ginkgo]

That’s because officer xp doesn’t count for the event. It’s either ship xp or research.

[oblique ridge]

It’s “Where Archer met Sarin”

[ionic aspen]

No g5 rewards from away team rare ticket event. Is it a bug? The other ones giving g3, g4 and g5 rewards, but that is what I got. I am ops 51 it should be g5, too. Isn’t it?

[high aurora]

This is mine at ops 52. Scroll up on your rewards. 5 star should be the top line

[errant chasm]

is it just me or this whole arc's event calendar very light?

[ionic aspen]

But it isn’t. Here you see the rewards of the last ms gas vs ore. It’s the same but without the g5 at gas

[low radish]

scopely doesn't even know how calendars work

[trim gazelle]

They can't just give people things, too many people are transitioning to f2p, so they have to claw back the freebies so that people have to pay for everything

That's how this works right? Just demand more and more and more and your customers have no choice but to keep writing cheques, right?

Don't worry though, the real goal is to make you quit so they can get everyone on one server and realize some staffing and server cost synergies.

[wet grove]

„Hey, buy this officer to do this event“ - oh boy, pay2play is real. I‘m aware I dont have to have her, but someone does

[molten marlin]

you don't have to have hoshi to do it

[formal musk]

Again, WHY are g6 players in the event brackets with g5 players? They get over 20x the amount of points for mining resources. Unbelievable. Events with garbage brackets might as well not launch at all.

[fair lantern]

It would have been a zillion times better if you went to that planet and needed to use a hailing frequency as per Hoshi Sato. Instead they edit the info tab on the planet. That's neat but they missed an opportunity for something actually truly clever.

[final oriole]

just stuck shran on bridge and mined 1378 trit and only got 5512 points I would think i should have gotten 1378 x 1.5 + 1378 x 3 for 6201

[proper wagon]

I am at 97/100 for the cube and some of my alliance member reported it is in their event store but it's not in mine what's up with that????

[molten marlin]

did you already buy 75 before? from a previous event store

[novel mango]

It’s so F ed up alot of us had full miners ready to turn in and yup Scopley broke the event again. So do I sit on the mine or fall behind in lat rush, a decisions none of us should have to had made!

[pine peak]

Ops 53 here - and I will not be anywhere near any of the leaderboard prizes. 40 vs 850 - not keeping up with that. @wanton copper - fix the damn brackets.

[fluid gulch]

The buried treasures event was so late today? Two hours after reset I recalled my miner that had 32mil g5 crystal. I get zero points because you guys can’t seem to release working events on time. It’s not even like it’s a new concept, just copy and paste event.

[glossy sonnet]

Rare Tickets, could 1 be given out at each level completed, not just 10 after doing every single one? This way, if participants can complete all, at least they get 1 bit by bit, please.

[left canyon]

Loving the Quark shards at the top of the Latinum Rush SMS

[fluid gulch]

And win will you fix the wave defenses? I expect a large comp chest with section 31 credits

[molten marlin]

wave defenses are fixed, and the comp chest will be 15k credits

[keen temple]

According to the description at Rigel X Officer XP should count for event

[molten marlin]

clear your localization and it should have the correct text

[covert ginkgo]

Try rebooting your game as mine does not show Officer Xp and I completed it with ship xp.

[celest edge]

Put the correct text there to begin with. Players shouldn't have to find out via Discord or other players the workaround for an already overly complex event.

[plain fulcrum]

I am fuming to the point of quitting on this dock materials event. Prepped with ships in g4 &5 token areas at 4.00 waiting it to start. Delayed so waited to 5. Still nothing doing. Scopley randomly start it when they want making it just luck who can score as they are online when the button is hit. Absolute joke 🤬🤬🤬

[celest edge]

@molten marlin Does this event only score if you mined the materials? Because players will hunt opl to score for already scarce event credits. Is this by design?
So now customers will break agreements in token space for event credits. Got it

[molten marlin]

It only scores on mining para/trit/dilithium, stealing it doesn't do anything. You can steal crystal/gas/ore and score once you dock it

[woeful ledge]

Dear Scopely. Events start at a defined time, that's what we all expect and work with. If you mess up the timings and we pay for it then we expect compensation! And this time, this arc, the messup is the worst of all time so far!

[lavish coral]

So, you put G5 players in the same bracket as G6s, then make the rewards for mining G6 mats (that G5 players can’t access) 200% of the G5 scoring. Just insane.

[loud glade]

The new Xantoras system, which appears to have one node to mine on (presumably for the Phlox events?) is going to cause problems. On our server there is a lvl 17 mining on the node, who cannot be cleared by the majority of our players. If we have to mine to complete the event, we're stuffed.

[rough scarab]

You will have to mine it

[molten marlin]

time to make a new account and pop him off the node, lol. But yes, it's going to be a problem to run a slb/alb with 1 node per system

[vagrant topaz]

Scopely people don’t really play the game so they don’t think about these things

[olive cape]

Just spend $ to get to g6 obviously. 😆

[turbid hamlet]

Buried Treasure didnt launch like it should of.. so you launch it middle of the day?!?!? START IT THE NEXT DAY.. you completely screwed up the strategy of the event 😠

[patent river]

Thanks for the heads up on what the rare ticket officer was going to be. Will this be the format going forward or just this month? Going from choice to gacha.. granted the pool of the gacha is def improved.

[molten marlin]

yeah the scoring discrepancy is really bad. scopely thinks it's fine tho

[high aurora]

It's to cover the people that transition between G5 and G6 during and event

[celest edge]

Why are none of the G4 players complaining that G5 players are in their brackets? Oh that's right! We've had to "suck it up" for quite some time now. Your turn!

[lavish coral]

Look at the scoring discrepancy again and think a little harder before replying. Your ignorance is showing.

[turbid hamlet]

A whole 3 Epic Shards for 1st place, over two days, with PVP going on. So. Generous.

[mild ore]

Your bracket system for slbs and events are broken. The players that are going to spend in each bracket will still spend if there is less people. Just divide it up fairly, so we are competing on a even level.

[small narwhal]

I don’t think that scoring discrepancy is actually that bad. There are no 6* lucrative systems afaik, and the base mining rate for g6 is really really low. g6 players could use a g6 miner to mine g5/g4 faster, but the g6 miners also have tiny cargo space compared to lower grade miners. The actual problem would just be the usual problem getting bracketed with whales. Low 50s player with a low tier nova can’t compete with a whale who has a maxed g5 rare miner.

[molten marlin]

When you see one pop their miner and dwarf everyone on the board even if you added everyone else up, it's a bit much

[small narwhal]

Yeah but did they actually score on g6 or did they just pull their lvl 58 miner(s) out of g5 token? The problem I don’t think is the scoring card, it’s getting bracketed with 60+ at all.

[molten marlin]

had to be g6, got all g5 covered, he hasn't been in here but yeah, they really need to do something about the brackets, really hope they actually get the xslb right and adopt it for all the brackets.

[small narwhal]

The base mining rate for the lowest level g6 systems is 3 and it looks like it tops out at 8 in the highest hazard systems, compared to g5 which starts at 130, and is 1000 in token. Even with 850 vs 40 scoring it doesn’t make sense to me to mine g6.

[molten marlin]

Looks like it was g5, and I just pulled 40m off him, lol. If he wakes up, probably gonna get an earful, think he thought it was untouchable

[bright tapir]

Let’s see I am limited to mining g5 for 40 each yet after months still stuck in slbs with all the 60 plus people mining g6 for 850 each, it’s way past time for you to end 50 plus being one huge bloated bracket

[fast notch]

Its horrible to get slb with 60+ they score 100or more times as many as u do.

its total useless to do slb's

pls give each 60+ the rewards each day for free that 51,52 can play slbs as well

[fluid gust]

someone on our server shared this.
someone mixed up the German translation of the translation event badly.

[ashen heath]

So guys, 1 week into the new BP with big event store - and we are at less than 100k total event currency. This pace would lead to around 300k in total for the whole BP! That is ridiculously low and such a decrease compared to the other event store we were used to! Those event planner and game designer should be fired! Scopely is screwing this one totally up! The whole month is a joke!

[marble sierra]

refresh miners for lat event.. and score with docking it a few hours later.. then reapply miners in token space ?

[ornate scroll]

postponing the buried treasure event was very mean to the players who prepared for it and lost masses of points because of the late start😡😡😡 what the point of preparing for an event if you screw us again???

[broken crystal]

is it intended that a new encrypted transmission started now?.. also I fail to translate 😦

[lilac ocean]

Away missions, or trait xp 🙂

[hidden tinsel]

||you need to do away missions||

[drowsy vine]

I got the same event twice, but today, not all in klingon.

[broken crystal]

i want to solve the riddle, not know what i need to do for the event points

[loud glade]

Same problem with Dekendi 😐

[sand wren]

You guys really need to bring back the bribe events, every week we get more and more lat we cant do anything with after the whip came out. Cant we have a bribe event with short cool down so we have a chance to make use of all the excess?

[mild flint]

Hmm someone at Scopely didn't do their Lore homework.... Trip became pregnant by Ah'len on the holodeck. They are from Thera, the Xyrillian homeworld. So why is the system and planet in game called Xyrillia?

[small narwhal]

Yeah I figured mining bonuses would be only slightly different across the grades.

[mild flint]

Hmm it seems the wiki and a few fan sites disagree on their home planet's name so this lore question may actually have the correct answer in game.

[broken crystal]

The Xyrillian homeworld was an inhabited planet and the homeworld of the space-faring Xyrillians. Thera was one of its cities.

[mild flint]

But oddly not the answer as I've just watched the episode Star Trek: Enterprise where at 18:15 time mark Ah'len says "That's Thera. It's where I come from". Admittedly that could be the name of the city...

[broken crystal]

https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Xyrillian_homeworld it says the script contains the information that thera is a city

[mild flint]

Seems my thoughts that it might be the name of the city rather than the planet were correct and that the first wiki I looked at had it wrong. Fair enough. Interesting that you have to find the information from the script from the show to find that distinction but there's the answer.

[prisma temple]

Please align event start times!!

[manic estuary]

Have to say I've been unipressed with execution of Trivia event

[silver briar]

That compensating gift was terrible. We consistently beat wave 10.

[soft agate]

The wave battlepass contains sec31 rep for most of the paid track. If you want us to buy it you’ll need to put something else there, many of us have maxed the rep already

[errant chasm]

Why is the event calendar so light? The between arc events schedule is more filled than this.

[hasty wedge]

Could we PLESAE have SLB's for +60 ops. Aim getting fed up by competing against them almost every SLB

[torpid valve]

Wave BP not counting on comletion ?
Already waiting for half an hour:

[somber hinge]

Thanks for putting 2 hostile level with the same drop into 1 systems. helps alot, if you are reliant on buffs to kill enough for the exchange. log 1 with buffs, log 2 without, log 3 just to compare

[night otter]

Since you messed up the Treasury it should be a free unlock for all lol

[outer pivot]

I think that Silent systems with combined hostile levels with SUPER POOR spawn rate of the lower level hostiles is a great idea. At least if the goal was to make people annoyed as fast as possible and force them to ignore whole Silent. Looks like that you can mark ✅ super fast. just a few days were enough. Good job.

[turbid cloak]

At last you split over 60s into a xslb for last officer mats event. But then for the buried treasue slb it is over 50s in with over 60s again. How is someone in 50s going to compete with those in 60s that can get much higher points for mining G6 and Sigma Res. Please please please make slbs so everyone can compete on a fair playing field. So if in with over 60s make the points comparable.

[celest edge]

This is pretty ridiculous... So many players complaining about the XSLB & SLB brackets for absolutely garbage rewards. How many Archer shards can a player buy with the difference between 50th & 25th place in tbe event? If you guessed the same amount of money I'll be spending this arc, which is ZERO you win the prize!

[high aurora]

Could we try and re-sync the faction spend dailies with event reset please.

[stuck socket]

I think P'Jem is the third Translation

[tacit patio]

It is. Alliance helps and they are not scoring for the event.

[compact temple]

Bugged event today?

[strong anchor]

Is the Daylight Savings Time issue going to get fixed? Or are we always going to have staggered events starting +/- 1 hour?

[trim nacelle]

This is Scopely, of course what we ask for is routinely ignored!

[buoyant cape]

Alliance contributions also not working 🤦🏻‍♂️

[drifting jackal]

Univ translator 3 isnt scoring

[naive viper]

Is it definitely p'jem?

[molten marlin]

not p'jem, bad translation

scopely didn't make a booboo, we did with the translation.

[tacit patio]

Apparently it’s killing hostiles now. Scopely made a booboo…. Or as we call it “just another day”

[finite lintel]

WTF

[potent forge]

Killing Cindy hostiles not counting for the event. Anyone else?

[warm crest]

No, scopely gave bad hint. All translations for what they gave suck.

[molten marlin]

Coridan was also embroiled in an internal conflict between the government, backed by the Vulcan High Command, and rebel forces, secretly supported by the Andorian Empire.

[ivory cape]

No points on the SLB for killing xindi hostiles.

[lucid idol]

<@&509690795536941056> Synd Progression event is now officially a waste of time. Yet again, you've jacked up the milestones by a RIDICULOUS amount just because you've added a measly claim to ex-B store (a claim that 99% of players don't yet have access to), this is honestly beyond a joke now. You can't honestly see this as acceptable? You've lost the plot at this point, I'm amazed you continue to do this stuff week in week out, I'm now convinced you're trying to kill the game just so you can write it off and keep the money... edit not to mention, what a terrible selection of officers, if you think this is somehow going to increase your revenue you're deluded

[slender narwhal]

Around 30k rise

[hollow lichen]

at least it means that we don't really have to bother or worry about syncing up syndicate XP pulls just in case a random event shows up. Milestones are now so insane, basically forget about going beyond first without paying for BP, if at all.

[trim nacelle]

So to get the whole thing, you'd need at least 224k to finish it, or about $299.97

[quaint parrot]

if you can't reach the first milestone, skip it. simple, easy and...simple, of course. Sum your Syndacate points and then multiple them by five and then it's easy and simple what you must do.

[left marlin]

Doomsday Worms again, eh Scopely? Once again demonstrating how good y’all are at trolling your players lol

[lucid idol]

do you think I'm a simpleton? I'm not looking for advice, this is an event feedback channel, I'm giving feedback...

[halcyon fiber]

So, my OPS 54 Account, which gets like 10k Syndicate XP daily has the same milestones in the Syndicate XP Event as a lvl 19 Account who gets 0 Syn XP daily

[lucid idol]

Scopely logic: "make it unattainable and they will buy more packs", absolutely delusional basically

[halcyon fiber]

wouldnt even get to first milestone if i'd spent all my event store currency on Syndicate XP 😂

[queen hearth]

"tHe FiRsT tiEr iS heRoIc nOW tOo" -arc runner -quality-

[full swan]

DM'd ya!

[warm cave]

By not putting points for hostel based on their level, once again, the silent enemies operation 41 zone is being overrun by high-level players, attempting to cheese the SLB

[gusty robin]

$600 for enough patches to do the 100 Trip shard pull…

[shut wharf]

At least if they don't do the same deceiving trick they did with the Dr Tlana it is clear that it is a 100% paying event.

[torpid saddle]

No appropriate directions for universal translator event. Wasn't there a post saying it would be fixed or we'd be compensated?
If its not clear in game, it should be pulled. Not a single day of normal gaming in STFC for weeks now.
Please get it together cause this is insulting

[trim rapids]

I like these encrypted transmission quiz events. Its fun to put some text into a klingon translator and try to figure out the clue. I wish I remember enterprise better, it was so long ago.

[rough ravine]

Level 34 Xindi's ae not scoring in the SLB event. Would post screen shots but every other time I go into events my game freezes now, so I ran out of motivation while having to restart repeatedly just to get screenshots of event screens.

[molten marlin]

hit the 40s

[fickle forge]

They are scoring on 146. Are you running them with Archer / Phlox / Tripp?

[shut wharf]

Most likely he cannot yet...

[novel mango]

Any word on when they will add anything to the event store like they said they would?

[molten marlin]

ent e officers sometime this week, a surprise next week

[shut wharf]

not sure the ENT-E "addition" is not the present paying event ...

[molten marlin]

it's not, they've done this pay token thing every arc with the new officers

[dark horizon]

That's why I'm not even going to bother trying. Changing the MS every event is just ridiculous.

[river merlin]

but its working .. community is addicts

[languid ice]

This is unnecessary

[loud shore]

Oh my dear... Scopely put up a Klingon dictionary on the faq. https://scopely.helpshift.com/hc/en/19-star-trek-fleet-command/faq/7870-build-the-universal-translator-event/
Two days ago. But they don't seem to have bothered telling anybody. Until just now via reddit!

[obsidian quiver]

Once again someone forgot to be clear in the hostile hunt verbiage. Its lvl 40 xindi not the 35s.

[molten marlin]

people went to the wrong planet

[dusty widget]

Gee an event that gives extra scoring when you have Phlox where ops 50s have to compete against the ops 61+ that were given a much easier opportunity to get him. Thanks Scopely. Love that you only care about giving the Ops 61+ their easy wins. Becoming very apparent that if you don't spend at the top level it is not worth spending at all. Free to play folks seem to have it much better than the dolphins.

[fresh grove]

It's an ops 16 system:

[Coridan Space S:218039082 X:575.0596 Y:-137.7978]

[toxic galleon]

Just sitting here watching mid 50 level players kill lvl 41 silent enemies. Really well thought out again Scopely

[marble eagle]

Still waiting to be able to unlock my "fixed" vault. Id be fired if I did my job that bad.

[celest edge]

I'm assuming the scoring metrics have been adjusted to prevent anyone not purchasing a non-premium ($100) pack from reaching the first milestone... Even purchasing the maximum amount of Syndicate reputation through the Section 31 and Mantis chests wouldn't award the first level of progress within the alloted time. I'd normally buy the economy packs, but this arc bas been a garbage in/garbage out since day one.

[trim nacelle]

So, claimed the comp gift, but I still don't see a desealing rod that I can get to unlock it

[chrome jetty]

I claimed a chest that had event currency in it but also cant see a desealing rod i can get to unlock treasury so ur not the only one

[wanton remnant]

Well the treasury is nice but don’t you think the Loyalty collection once a month is a viable system, NO? It could use a level climb along with Ops

[shut copper]

Where are the NX-01 Engineering tools that are supposed to be in the recruit tab?

[molten marlin]

Pay to unlock only.

[hollow anchor]

Yep. The “event” mentioned in the description is you putting in your CC info

[shut copper]

That is awfully 💩y

[hollow anchor]

Yeah. So if you have 0 Tucker shards, the low low price of $599.94 USD will get you a Tucker unlock!

[mighty swift]

hmm Who is in charge of time keeping? They need to re-check what time it is.

[marble sierra]

dont forget for this run scopely expects u to use event store currency for syndicate xp as well 😉

[inland goblet]

What's wrong with you?!
I have Archer and Tucker on the bridge, but am still getting only 100 points for killing a Xindi hostile.

[queen kindle]

The toast popup is unreliable to determine the score change. I'd open up the event page and compare before/after hostile hits to see if the bonus scoring is working.

[outer oxide]

He hit a reptilian, which is a 50 point base. it is 25 point bonus with the 1.5x base score multipler on the bridge. It is scoring correctly. it is 75 with either one, or 100 with both trip and archer.

[ocean crypt]

way to go with the syndicate (sin) heroic event, take it right out of reach for us free players now, not even extra syn points from other events and store can reach stage 1 now

[celest edge]

You forgot budgeted players. The $20 packs wouldn't buy enough Syndicate xp to make the first milestone either. Another reason not to buy them from my point of view

[mild moth]

Everyone has now noticed that scopely has only been delivering lousy quality, stupid content and calling it quality, especially since the beginning of the year. Many players have quit. But what they've taken to the extreme in the current arc is that even the ptw content is almost all garbage and has hardly any impact. The eventstore has nothing that I really need, the stupid events with the silent enemies bring a maximum of 12k tokens in the slb... but my ship flies off more often than it has to for the refinery. With buffs, one flight every 4 days is enough.... Between 56 and 59 seems to be the sweetspot with a g5 rare.

[celest edge]

"Quality over Quantity" was the motto for 2023. "Caveat Emptor" is the current motto.

[balmy oracle]

Good we having 2024, motto now is milk the cash cows and destroy the game
And during it smile in customers face and tell them all is good 🤣

[long cedar]

I have Archer on the bridge and I only score 20 points on the hostile Romulans... It doesn't work...

[celest edge]

Can you post a screenshot of the event requirements? I believe you're in the lower bracket, and there's no one in that bracket online now for me to ask in my alliance.

[long cedar]

i'm level 30

[celest edge]

What is the base points per hostile? Left box

[celest edge]

Definitely broken for your bracket if you're only scoring 20 points. Be sure to tag <@&509690795536941056> with this issue.

[long cedar]

Ok, thank you ^^

And I only have this: The Borg cube is not present in the event store...

😂

[rare pendant]

how many encrypted missions will there be in total? 5?

[celest edge]

I think the more interesting question is how many of the event descriptions will be accurate?

[toxic galleon]

Xindi hostiles are worth 50 points + 25 for Archer and +25 points for Tucker = 100 points

[sly path]

<@&509690795536941056> I have three ships grinding... one with Tucker on bridge, one with Archer on bridge and all three score the same... 20 points... I checked the slb score in the event before and after a hit and definitely only 20 points... yet when I was grinding earlier with them both on one ship, I was getting 40 points (I'm ops 39)
Looks like it works against normal hostiles in Augment but no bonus against Bounty Hunters even when you target them. Tried switching both back to one ship and only got 40 when I hit the normal hostile.

[celest edge]

Probably best to submit a ticket for this. Pretty sure Community Management is still sorting through the 400 reports of a broken treasury.

[sly path]

Oh, only put it to community manager cause that's what your message above told another player to do. Sorry, I'll submit a ticket instead.

[celest edge]

I'm just another player trying to help. Plus Discord is much more entertaining than watching all the higher levels pick off the Silent Hostiles in my designated loot system for the Hostile SLB. (Who thought that would be a good idea?)

Haven't seen any of the CM's on since early this morning. At least this way your report won't just be overlooked in the train wreck of issues we're experiencing this arc.

[warm haven]

Hostile Hun SLB should not have been run without adjustments (based on much feedback I saw here atleast) for Silent hostiles again. Please do both:

• Fix the Silent hostiles spawning so there are always at least some of the lower level spawning (ie. 41s in system and not just 44)
• Fix future SLBs by locking lower level (ie. so all the 49+ players aren't just killing all the 41s)

[sly path]

I've done the ticket, thanks for suggestion.

[celest edge]

If they'd just double the systems available and get rid of the multiple hostile levels in each it would be helpful. We have 3 lvl 40 Xindi systems but one system for Silents split between hostile levels. This was not a well planned release imho.

[loud atlas]

I’m having the same issue as others with Archer on bridge not scoring the bonus points. My alliance said it works when hitting the hostiles as opposed to auto grinding which is what I am doing. But being on bridge should count either way and if the officers don’t count for auto grinding that should be stated in the event description.

[inner hamlet]

I don't seem to be getting any credit for the Cerritos SMS by killing with active exocomp.

[still gale]

i have an complain/suggestion about hostile hunt SLB: when you make such an sbl where ppl get 20 points per hostile killed then why you dont disable the 2k pve cap specialy we will have apex event today and whis no loot its not verry fair to us couse to be in sbl you have to hit more then 2k hostiles spezialy if you dont have tucker or archer. you could also change it in the furure in the way like the point we get are depending on the level of the hostiles

[celest edge]

Just do your Apex event after the cap resets if you need the security codes. It's kind of a choice between which is more important to you.

[still gale]

it is not only the codes its also repetation and so its kind of presure you whant enterprise coints then you lose other stuff

[celest edge]

Unless something is somehow radically different on your server, there's no rule that you can only grind faction xp on event days.

[still gale]

it doesnt matter that i can do it on other days to i do it yes but it is not like i think it should be done to make an slb while you have an pve cap sure you can think different about it but i know from our ally i am not the only one who thinks like that

[celest edge]

This isn't the first SLB grind event where we've had to make a choice. I'd personally rather deal with a 2k hostile loot limit than compete against players using bots to triple my score while they sleep & then collect double rewards for cheats. It's been well over a year since the hostile limit was implemented. At this point I have nothing to suggest other than deal with it - or don't 🤷‍♂️

[pastel scarab]

<@&509690795536941056> Only getting base points per kill even with Archer on bridge. I tried with him as Captain, but same result.

[still gale]

spezial officers give the bonus onlyy when active fighting not when you afk grind

[brisk bough]

So you put a borg cube event in but you won't let us unlock a full one in the event store? That's just cruel, that is. Remove the shard cap, please! @wanton copper @full swan

[wheat pasture]

I think the scoring shown in this event info is incorrect. Like, very, very incorrect.

[turbid belfry]

Scopely math!

[still gale]

boa borg cube event and no loot couse of pve cap and tommorow job when i come home is over allready oh i see 48 hours lucky for me

[median mango]

Loot capped due to Hostile SLB. Unable to partake in Technological Distinctiveness SLB due to being hostile loot capped

[novel mango]

So where is the normal Thursday exchange events? Can we get the events on the same freaking timer already.

[patent raptor]

Loot capped due to ongoing slb rewarding points for destroying hostiles. Now a new slb launched at same time as ongoing one, but new one requires loot. This is ridiculous.

[olive spear]

Heavy hitters is way better event then this hostiles slb. If scopley only could keep good events and stop inventing useless ones

[ebon crystal]

<@&509690795536941056> Once again, unfair SLB where low 50s are competing with the 60+ with a ship that is level locked..... This is again a big middle finger to all the 50s players that are trying to climb up while having fun PLAYING this game. You guys are acting like AMATEURS but asking for professional rates $$$. Wake up

[wheat pasture]

So another member of my alliance and I compared event stores, and we're seeing different BPs in the ship section. Specifically, only I see the Amalgam, and only he sees the Borg Cube. We're both ops31+ and have completed the Borg Cube mission chain up to the "Build a Borg Cube" step. Any idea what's going on here?

[novel mango]

Trying being 33 and almost nothing has been added for you in years.

[full swan]

What's your ops? If you're 40+ there should be specific Xindi systems that should be marked with a yellow flag.

[pastel scarab]

Only 39

[slender narwhal]

There has been events that had low lv50+ that has been with the high 40 so if that is fine it should be fine for the high 50 not the low like you say

[arctic fog]

so disappointed that the contributions do not count 4x like the info page says, cause I just spent a bunch on contributions and it barely made a dent.

[nimble veldt]

Oh dear. There's hostile hunt SLB and now Distinction Extinction. Very well. I hit the daily hostile limit and can't obtain the TD for the event. This is just awesome.

[visual holly]

as best I can tell the bonus applies in systems that 40+ are scoring in and not everywhere for the general hostile slb. the only place I saw 30 points per was when I killed my silents for the day

[round silo]

Could we puh-lease have a better spawn rate or higher number of targets when events are on? The competition for exchange armadas is ridiculous!

[woeful lion]

why didn't you put Enterprise coins in Cube SLB?

[deft wren]

Back when TNG was added I completed a 3 day grind SLB event and was rewarded with a full unlock of the newest PvE meta officer.

These days a 2 day grind event gets you peanuts in comparison: 5 shards of an officer that's been around for ages but Scopely choose to keep drip feeding to us rather than sorting out decent sourcing.

This arc is entirely unimpressive. Poor events, worse rewards and a grind as diabolical as the event store contents.

Previous arcs have been tough but you had the impression that the arc runner at least wanted us to get what they were trying to do and find enjoyment.

This arc runner obviously doesn't give a frakk

[languid ice]

This has been the LAMEST month of events and rewards.

[last lance]

I agree its not been great rewards and engagement wise. But by far not the worse one. 2nd Month of Lower Decks 2, was horrible. November (aka anniversary month) was even worse than that and this one.

[novel mango]

They are cheap.

[robust valley]

<@&509690795536941056> why has Scopely decided to cap today the Borg Cube BPs to 75 1/2 way through the arc so players have spent their coins now with no way of obtaining the ship. They should have done this from the start so players could have invested in the Officers instead - I think this is a very poor move and has given many players false hope... 👎

[molten marlin]

It was always capped at 75. Because in the original run, you got 25 from the battle pass free path and 75 from the event store.

[median mango]

It’s not just the cube. Event store ships have a cap that can’t be unlocked in one try. The Borg mid arc event only allows 15 shards for the vidar skin and it requires 60. So it would take over a year to unlock with no other paths, but by then you’ll have a talios making the vidar moot

[robust valley]

The cap went on Server 133 today, initially there was no limit to the Borg Cube BPs so lots of players including myself invested our event coins in the Cube

[molten marlin]

There was always a limit for the cube.

[wraith verge]

Please don't EVER combine a Hostile Hunt SLB again with something that requires pve loot like today.

[robust valley]

The cap to the Borg Cube was added to Server 133 today.... hence my post - many players including myself would not have invested otherwise. @full swan can you please confirm this 🙂

[molten marlin]

Again, the cap was always there, may have not been a visual for it, but it was there.

[robust valley]

I think then that is the issue - the lack of visual on the Borg Cube when all the other ships had cap figures has misled players in to investing something unobtainable. These coins could have been used to unlock a new officer or helped promote... very frustrating to our player base

[celest edge]

We have too many events currently running. While I understand the need to provide content to promote player engagement, the juice isn't worth the squeeze to complete SMS events, weekly events, battlepass milestone & SLB events. This a game which should be played for entertainment, not a full-time job. Plus, it's getting hard to even keep track of which events to prioritize.

[lavish pawn]

The continual raising the floor of syndicate events just keeps getting more out of hand...

[trim gazelle]

this arc runner's job was to punish the players for the lack of spending.
they think that three months of terrible content will convince people to open their wallets.... or else! we'll make it even worse!

[deft wren]

Has had the opposite effect on me, I was actually considering spending on the Ferengi Whip until this month. Now I'm not even going to buy the battlepass

[willow coral]

glad i'm not high level any more, however its the complete opposite at ops 23 and somewhat boring - i guess it gives us time to concentrate on growing in the game though. events are also "married" thank god 🙂

[nimble veldt]

could not agree more.

[novel mango]

Just don’t do them, there are multiple events I don’t do or “phone it in” at this point.

[lavish pawn]

There are two options, just ignore the syndicate event or at least mention the dissatisfaction. Rather at least mention something and maybe they stop moving the goal post for the first milestone. Cause it used to be in reach for normal task (Mantis pulls, etc)

[sweet wedge]

ok who the hell thought up this nx01 tool stuff purchase trip tucker packs to get the tools to possible get more tucker shards are you stupid what a waste

[high aurora]

The March 16th (Shamrock showdown) and 17th (Rainbow of Languages) events should be swapped. March 17th is Swarm Sunday, to the Swarm event would be much better suited to be on that day for event synergy

[celest edge]

Gotta say I'm very pleased at how this has worked out. Due to other players hitting their hostile limit by using the Silent Hostile systems below their designated areas for the Hostile Hunt event I've been able to secure a nice lead without having to grind all day!
Considering I'm a lvl 49 with levels 55-57 taking out all the 46 hostiles in my designated loot system, it was very satisfying to see that strategy backfire.

[half talon]

Why is there such a range of player level in the hostile hunt? I was looking at the rankings and I do not see any players in the lower end of the player level range at the top 20. These hostile hunts seem to favor the higher end of the bracket range.

[icy marsh]

my god, how awful are you guys butchering the lore behind the NX ent officers? why the heck does tucker have a species 8472 ability? why the heck does phlox have a borg cutting beam ability? why isn't the mining officer the one that actually worked on a miner?! there's just so much here that makes zero sense. who the heck thought of of this thing

[molten marlin]

Well phlox did get assimilated once, or close to it, out of the group, that's the least lore breaking

[icy marsh]

is it just me or is there a new bug where the zoom keeps getting reset when viewing a system? i don't recall having to constantly zoom out every time. not happening every time but noticing it fairly frequently

[balmy oracle]

No bugs in this game

[lucid idol]

2 days of full pulls (max mantis refinery, s31 store, daily claim & battlepass rewards) to get this... <@&509690795536941056> do you see what I mean? "Heroic" shouldn't mean undoable. I used to get to the second milestone over the two days, and about halfway to the 3rd, now I barely make it to the first. The increase in scoring is not equivalent to the increase in sourcing, reduce this now. Nobody is gonna bother with this event eventually, which begs the question, why bother running it at all?

[lucid idol]

Please get some perspective, lore butchering is the least of our problems with this game, don't waste space in here complaining about stuff that doesn't affect the gameplay please

[verbal surge]

Stop screwing up the Syndicate exp event
It's a fat middle finger to any F2P who used to be able to get at least a few shards every month
No one will bother with it

try using the right feedback channel next time instead of reacting with childish emojis

[celest edge]

I don't see your moderator role? Oh that's right! You aren't one. It's hypocrisy to berate another player in an events feedback channel for not using the correct channel. Ironic, isn't it?

[lucid idol]

yet here you are, berating me, ironic is definitely the word

[celest edge]

That's still not using the channel for its purpose🤣

[elder fern]

I did everything I could without spending multiphasics except one of my Mantis refinery pulls was only 1 chest instead of two since I didn't realize the event was running at first. This used to be more than enough to get at least the first tier rewards. Definitely frustrating.

[rough scarab]

@wanton copper yea so much for event store tokens in tickets. Guess that was scopely’s intention again right?

[slender current]

St Pattys tickets would be nice

[green mica]

Last holiday event was amazing. 100% f2p. Now you have one with 100% paid entry… fun…

[novel mango]

So is parts day a whale only event? No F2P? An no normal tickets.

[slender current]

WAIT ARE YOU KIDDING?! We have to BUY INTO the HOLIDAY event? You cheap ballsacks. Thats honestly enough to make me quit the game.

[cobalt wave]

Wow.... Don't try and alienate all your players at once Scopely.

[high aurora]

It’s a really bad look to launch pay to participate packs for a Holiday and not provide access to players. Big F and big L on this one . “Quality”

[pale steeple]

Ticket delay probably because scopely developers are really challenged with DST

[deep lichen]

Where are the normal tickets for the ticketed events?

[wheat pasture]

Something definitely seems to be up with the scoring for the holiday event.

[novel mango]

@Eco can we get the dang event times synced up already? Also still no event credits with tickets events? Scopley has always been cheap but lately it’s off the hook.

[scarlet summit]

dst over quantity

[warm crest]

Pretty sure they said they will sync it up at end if march when rest of world does their DST. Still stupid as hell though.

[modest echo]

Can we give the cardassian battle pass events a rest now? They're boring, need higher level hostiles to stop all the 45+ all heading to one system and generally don't help to complete other events for higher players due to the hostile levels being so low.

[slate coral]

Im assuming we will at least get one of the saint pattys tickets the same time we get the uncommon event tickets right...?

[lucid idol]

I'm convinced they're actively trying to make the players angry at this point, I'm loathe to believe anyone is capable of making this many bad decisions without realising what they're doing
