[dusky mortar]

maybe this will sound weird but remove iso defense below decks and stack apex barrier. the iso defense is preventing too much damage from getting to your apex apex barrier which is what you need to damage in order to score.

[pale mulch]

So I have run 2 regular outposts for the 70. I got most of the daily pass, but I couldn't finish it, so I went down to a 66 outpost, which I will finish, but it won't finish the last part of it. I will be well short. Where am I meant to get the directives for finishing this event? I was already turned off by the rewards of the elite pass, even though I bought the 2 before this. There is no way I would spend on this Pass it has almost nothing in it. But even if I did, I can't finish it due to not having enough directives. Truly. a waste of my time and many others.I also bought Commander Siko, and he doesn't double the points for the outpost scoring like it did during the arc. That seems like selling us a false belief that it would continue after the arc.

[sleek mist]

I just swapped out WoK Joachim for Rachel Garret below decks and scored much better on the Apex Barrier Mitigation. TY 🙏

[pale mulch]

Why would that matter for the outpost side of things? Also, that would mean starting another outpost. In the scoring I can't see anything about Apex Barrier Mitigation scoring more for the event.

[pale mulch]

Now I see you have changed it so Siko is no longer mentioned in the event for scoring???????

[quiet gulch]

It appears you can just destroy hostiles for the remaining points.
It doesn't need to be Outpost kills, the outpost just gives additional points.
At least according to the description and the fact there is a Bonus Points Category.

So being able to finish the event is still possible, even without acquiring additional directives.
Mind you, I am not at the point of running Outposts myself so my opinion is moot.

[sage falcon]

Is this a known bug?
Any fix or workaround?

[stark warren]

Really? V’Ger regional event culminates in original SNW MBenga shards? Whoever thought of this just has no actual relationship with the player base.

[runic meadow]

They just engineered it to make peeps spend, can’t have people doing stuff for free and having fun😂😂😂

[smoky geode]

Yo Scopely, you need to visit how you arrange your Regional Leaderboards for events like the Vger Invasion Finals. I'm a 53 matched up with 61+ players who are killing lvl 65+ vgers. I can't even reach G6 space and our server is locked at lvl 60.

[mellow fjord]

Half a Prime if you even manage to place top10 with no clear path to getting the 2nd half of it.

Make it a full unlock or say how we can source a full unlock!!!

Right now its useless and i see no reason to invest in if i dont when i can get it.

Half of something is actually nothing if i have no path to getting the 2nd half

<@&509690795536941056>

[shadow trellis]

Feels like the godsend all over again

[thorny hound]

I assume they didn't listen to the community and these events are just as hard to complete RSS wise as last time?

[ashen notch]

<@&509690795536941056>, yet another Wednesday without ample xindi mada systems. Ive seen the devs add systems, madas, and adjust spawn rates on the fly (more or less). There is no good reason for this issue to not be resolved after months of player complaints regarding it.

[honest gust]

Does not seem they care what the community thinks, Over 500M mats spending is totally crazy. My plan is to skip it just like last time.

As far as the Xindi madas go, they need a much faster spawn rate, we sit up there for hours just trying to get them done. More sillyness indeed.

[late orchid]

Why restrict mirror dust and syndicate xp to getting in the top ten of your xslbs? If you want to have prime particles as that reward... fine... but those two? Completely out of touch with players wants/needs

[honest gust]

By the looks of our server the last time we had the Galactic Rush, not many people did the event. you can tell by the scores. In Fact, no one was able to complete it. 110m mat spending p/day for 5 days is just silly. I use the word Silly to be nice and not get chat banned, lol

I made the V'ger Finals, all they are giving is Shards for Black ops M'Benga, No Mats or anything else. Skipping that one too, Not grinding for 3 days for some shards for another average officer.

[storm widget]

Why can’t I claim my war room?

[molten marlin]

if your alliance completed it before you scored, you need to go out and score a point. smack a station, or mine and dock iso

[prisma gate]

missed opportunity to provide a limit number of ferengi energy whip shards from the profits and planning event

[scenic flint]

<@&509690795536941056> I grinded way too much to "qualify" for this trash reward? Blagh.

[manic crest]

This is real feedback STFC managers.

Galactic Rush was bad and still is bad. Changing/adding rewards to store doesn't make it better if its still crazy amounts of materials to try and burn to progress in event.

I know no player who genuinely likes it but I guess there is that one mega whale who makes it worth it for yall. Smh please think of player base.

[shell vortex]

Thank Kaiser, I will try it but I have all the research and artifacts and all that so it's really a dumb metric to go off of in the first place. At my level I get a point for 190million deferred which is easy too high considering I can't kill the bigger hostiles because warp range. The last few weeks it's just gotten on my nerves more and more cause I kill say 10 lvl 64 hostile and get a point or 2...I already have easy to much to do in the game too have to wait for hostiles to spawn, kill them and then fly back a bunch of times. I don't want to spend 20 minutes for one daily and nobody else should either, especially when I've invested so much money and time making my ships strong enough to kill things and then backing off cause game design can't set metrics to a reasonable level

[odd dock]

so thats 2 semi-new events/loops doa/dead, scopely never learn.

outposts and galactic rush are well and truly buried.

would take a monsterous compensation chest for both to resurrect them <@&509690795536941056>

ive stopped participating in VGER already, can see it dying next month, not worth my time. because ** I learned ** that scopelys new arcs die after 1 month.

Let me ask you a question scopely:

whats the point in leveling up ops to meet the requirement to participate in arcs? you have just taught us that the new arcs mean nothing. therefore trying to make us level up also means nothing. access to what? dead content (in 3 weeks) ... you need to start employing people again instead of making the ai do it.

[cerulean holly]

Just stopping by to say that the galactic rush event chain is still stupid and not worth the effort, really bad event design. good day.

[turbid hamlet]

I hope during this Regional Event that the higher scoring accounts are looked at closely for botting.

[karmic sky]

We are talking about 63-65 that have max relativity to punch out 69s and 70s. And those score more then average joe hitting just their ops level

[turbid hamlet]

I hit 69 too, I know full well the time that takes to get that total.

[stark warren]

I can help you with crewing.

[proven sparrow]

I was trying to remember what Galactic rush event was after reading the news,
Its that pathetic event that you cant get anything good in the store unless your alliance is ranked top 10...
Reducing the number of competing servers made zero difference

Total joke of an event

[grizzled compass]

Seriously DEV's, who has that kinda materials for the new galatic rush!! Yet again making events unbeatable for most! Congrats

[sand geyser]

The structure of the event (spend mats, do a task, spend mats, do a task…) is designed for us to WASTE mats. It is inherently frustrating and designed to be so. Live ops continues to hate us.

[grizzled compass]

yup

[hollow lichen]

Yet there are still plenty of people who do it, so they keep repeating these type of events. So the blame isn't completely on scopely, it's on the player base to who keeps engaging with these slop events.

[stark warren]

Live ops isn’t playing this game. I can find no other explanation. Almost every ‘real’ player has a half dozen ideas for engaging and enjoyable events. It’s very hard to believe it’s someone’s job to make these events. Is anyone excited to wake up and engage in Galactic Rush?

[brazen latch]

Could we at least get the costs of the prime particles added to galactic rush? Also what does slightly reduced the cost of syndicate XP and premium mirror dust exchanges actually mean. How are we supposed to plan for exchanges when we have no idea how much they will cost until the event ends and it’s no longer possible to earn the currency? A preview exchange in the event store, without buttons to show what it will cost is pointless.

[verbal surge]

This SLB is not attractive, stop "forgetting" rare g6 materials

[glass pewter]

Thanks. What we really need is another spend event 🤦‍♂️

[uncut fable]

Why all these spend mats events..its getting beyond impossible

[steady tiger]

Another event for spending resources. I strongly suggest you properly rework the refinery. Its efficiency is abysmal. If Starfleet operated with a refinery like this, they'd be able to build their first ship by the year 3000. You're acting as if the game consists solely of spending resources. That stuff actually has to be acquired first. With your generosity, it's taking an unnecessarily long time.

[vernal fulcrum]

This is INSANE, you all need to figure out a different scoring method than "spend resources" like how about you think of an original idea, even grinding is better than the endless spend mats, Spend mat, SPEND Mats, SPEND MATS.... talk about tone deaf

[torn plinth]

How many more spend events with mediocre value do you intend to run in a week? It gets boring really fast...

[small rover]

Sooooo..... Why is TG mining SLB running until an hour after Incursions starts....?

[scarlet tartan]

hey now, I'm ops 61, give some credit where it's due

[winter geyser]

Another event not properly calibrated. I am ops 21. This event is not possible for me. I know it IS possible to do, but you need other people. There is a place for events like this, but not here.

[runic meadow]

Higher scoring/higher spending……….yeah they are going to ban the lifeboat😂😂😂😂😂

[maiden condor]

Swarm/FKR armadas one day after a Wednesday FKR armada event. And trying to get people to do completely useless swarm armadas so they can waste their rare FKR directives. Well done, another well-designed arc.

Dopely, why don't you just make paying for the game obligatory instead of blatantly trying to get people to struggle hoping that will get them to purchase packs? Will be cheaper for you to introduce a subscription instead of F2P with packs model, and at least then you may be able to afford hiring some smart people for event design.

[maiden condor]

You're only level 21 so you still have a lot to learn. This event is absolutely doable if you stuff hundreds of euros into packs with armada directives. That's the only thing this company cares about. Not your comfort. Not your fun. Not your good gameplay. Not lore. They only care about luring you into purchasing paid packs, and if you're a F2P player, well, you're going to just grow more and more tired and dissatisfied with the game and the only thing keeping you here will be the community. So before you get into that community, I recommend you find a fairer game to play. Not from this company, cause every game from this company is the same.

[amber grove]

Too much date change for Cosmic Recruit Events, you people are very indecisive. Also why make it so long, even previous one never reach four days

[rugged vigil]

Galactic Rush is by far the worst event Ive seen in this game which ive been playing for 5 years so thats sayin alot. Do better im not spending 170 bucks for a pack or a dock. Bring back the basic extra dock!

[sturdy rampart]

<@&509690795536941056> It's great that live ops are giving us event kill 66+ outpust when there is one 66 outpust system which is still full but there is 3 63 system. If you want us to kill 66 please add 66 outpust systems, so we can event participate in those events 🙏 . Thanks

[gritty fox]

This needs to At Least, be labeled (Heroic). The Closest Swarm madas r wr75 & the others r just ridiculous. 8x Rares or 4 Epics/Swarms. Smh
Or as a nice option for f2p u could add in 1-3pts/hostile kill. Js.

[toxic wraith]

I know we will change the mat spends event so doesn't coincide with incursions...changed from sat to Friday, can't have you scoring in 2 events at the same time

[marble cosmos]

Haven’t you heard? Incursion is the best time to mine 😆

[toxic wraith]

So you don't see the 3 types of outpost! There's normal 66 and elite 66 in node, cardy and Borg varieties that's 6 systems total. But sure if you can't look must be a problem having choice of 60 outposts

[marble cosmos]

Don’t forget node 66 lol

[candid crow]

And the same daythat ápex exile ????

[sturdy rampart]

If you can complete 66 elite, you can count normal 70 too. Node variety you can count if you have Sisko. Basically if you can just finish 66 only ones you can count are the Borg ones.

[maiden condor]

Dopely thinks you have no life outside the game. You know, 12 hours doing events in STFC, 4 hours eating, washing up, cleaning, 8 hours of sleep. That's the model they're making the game for.

[toxic wraith]

So you are ignoring the cardassian outposts...
Since when are there only node or Borg outposts?

[sturdy rampart]

With current game it's much easier to defend against iso damage than overcome apex barrier. So what I said still stands.

[icy mural]

Scopley created their bot problem

[scenic vale]

no maxed out ship with all the bells and whistles at ops69 can kill lvl72 v'gers. even 71s are like 10 max a trip

there's hints of botting and then there's something like night & day

[barren latch]

Either that or add uncommon for 100 points...

Like rare and epics is beyond A.

[alpine niche]

Did the Transogen Mining yesterday for Uncommon. Brought my ship back just before shields ran out with out 16,000 plus units. But nothing recorded in my inventory.

[solar merlin]

What can I spend my Contraband chips apart from hijacked ship blueprints? I've already built all three hijacked ships and I'm not going build them again if I can't scrap them.

[plucky pelican]

Galactic Rush is a very poorly designed event.

I'm not going to upgrade 3 components on my ship, go spend 30 minutes in mirror and repeat that process half a dozen times.

[alpine niche]

If a Hirogen Hunt event is on, then why are no Hirogen ships to hunt?

[misty bluff]

material counters not working.

[buoyant dawn]

There's always Hirogem Ships in Velixys, the surrounding systems, and beyond.

[alpine niche]

I'm hunting there @buoyant dawn But I do appreciate you!

[buoyant dawn]

Wait. You mean another thing in the game is broken? No way... That's crazy talk. 🤣

[alpine niche]

I know...right? Yestereday, I mined UC Transogen....and when I got back to base, apparently it fell of the miner along the way. @buoyant dawn

I guess I forgot to snap the tiedown strap and say, "That's not going anywhere."

[buoyant dawn]

Maybe it was the Sona Pirates, Pakled Thiefs, or Bandits. Because Scopely doesn't make mistakes.

[alpine niche]

Could be, those sneaky little devils.

Nopely was in full force, yesterday.

[turbid hamlet]

That's why Scopely needs to look at these top scores for cheating, it happens for sure and needs to be taken seriously, not shrugged off because of how much they spend in the game.

[civic oak]

<@&509690795536941056> The recent announcement changed the officer recruit event to a cosmic event. This appears to have kicked players out of this event ops 50 and below.

Will the lower ops still be getting their scheduled officer recruit event then as advertised tomorrow?

[small rover]

They never did specify whether it was a 51+ event 😒

[waxen totem]

It is quite bonkers how g3/g4 players have been left out of recruit events.

[stone basalt]

Nice, Spent a ton of G6 materials not a point on galactic rush,
Thanks scoply

[past shadow]

if you do two opposite things, it can only go wrong! First you buff the amounts of demanded materials but then raise the demanded things for SLB in incredible hights

don't know if your Game Designers ever heard of "Math".

if I can't even finish the second part of galactic rush with upgrading to OPS 69, then something in your minds goes terribly wrong

[potent trail]

Guess you never heard of bots? EDIT I see you mentioned bots below. But yeah. Its botting. Nothing to get angry about, its just a game and scopely doesnt really care anymore about botting

[rocky sleet]

You geniuses, once again, ran an outpost event that overlaps with arenas. Not that anyone cares about arenas, but excellent work showing your players you're "paying attention."

[ocean arch]

incursions prep??

[fading veldt]

The otherside has been able to attack us for 5min before we got access to them!!

[hollow lichen]

if you could add a bit more lag to the overall game, that would make incursions much better. I can still see my own servers ships

[agile latch]

Scanning for 2 mins now... Lag is so good

[tacit zephyr]

They prefer to delete messages that talk about players who cheat, and if necessary, ban the player who reports it, rather than take action against players who cheat, especially if they put money into the game.

[agile latch]

Game disconnected 2 times in 7 min. Great work

[junior pond]

Shielded bases in territory systems

[sinful heart]

That and they are either dropping folks shields or giving folks some way to by pass them. I had a day left on my shield before I shut down this morning after working night shift. Woke up just now to my base being raided.

Who lot a jenky going on.

[civic oak]

Little disappointing the last 3 recruit officer events, first place was 60 shards. A meaningful reward.

This event first place gets three shards...

[fluid igloo]

scoring was delayed, it looked the same for me when it started

[wheat pasture]

Came to mention this. Can't believe this is still an issue.

[obsidian ether]

(Incursions) All Out War PVP event: Enterpirsie gets score for killing my Vidar, I don't get score for dying to Enterprise, because it's out of my level range. How does that make sense ?

[idle parcel]

Wtg, Scopely, giving us Faction Hunt AND an Outpost event during Incursions. 🙄

[tacit zephyr]

Remember that for Scopely, we're just bait to inflate the whales' egos. And to show them how good players they are, playing with money. Of course.

[idle parcel]

Yep. Exactly. They cater these events for their whale spending base. Ugh. I've seen a huge influx of spend events lately too. They want us depleting our RSS so we have to dig into our wallets. Nope. No thanks.

[shut geode]

Incursion remains pointless raiding nonsense. As long as this doesn't change, it's pointless for me to keep this in the game. Base raiding has nothing to do with PvP, which is often just about being outclassed by a much stronger player who is 5 or 20 levels higher. This has been said for over a year, Scopely does nothing about it. Make PvP more balanced in this game..

One AFK base with billions of materials without shield, still destroying whole incursion .. so yeah, most pointless and unbalanced event in this game

[errant belfry]

Once again All Out War is not giving me bonus points for pvp in the open systems.

[sage topaz]

I'm curious what Scopely is willing to do to make Incursions fun when they have customers who intentionally and repeatedly throw the incursion. There are solutions, but I'm wondering if Scopely would even consider them

[delicate latch]

Did they get rid of PvP level ranges for Incursions outside of Origins space? I got a lvl 46 getting hit by a lvl 71 and a 39 getting hits from lvl 64. I checked for sources online to see if my information is out of date and, unless Carnac's Guide, Spock's Tools, PvPTarget, etc. haven't been updated, I'm still getting 25-60 for the 39's range and 30-70 for the 46's range.

[sinful heart]

Scoply lives by the current American philosophy of “big eats little” and that the rich protect their own.

Their answer will be “buy moar packs”.

Just like the wealthy say “pull yourself up by your bootstraps”. (Most of them absolutely ignorant to the real meaning)

[visual anchor]

Incursions is junk. Without a doubt, the worst event of the game. No amount of skill or teamwork or prep can make a difference when the outcome is determined solely by which side has the most part time players who aren’t paying attention to shields or anything else in the game. They usually aren’t even in a real alliance. My server spends a huge amount of time and energy trying to prep for it, and then the whole thing gets thrown by a few players who went off to party and get drunk and forgot to shield on their way out of the house. Not that they care or feel the slightest guilt by it, as they aren’t really team players. The real players who actually support this game are begging you, Scopely - cancel incursions forever and add it to your gallery of bad ideas. Rank it in first place there.

[dusky mortar]

my server has lost to the same server 6 times and each time it's a rogue player of ours who throws it. We have complained to scopely and they don't care despite his bot use and throwing it.

[waxen totem]

You should try arenas, at least with incursions you can pick your battles

Going to bring this up again since g3/g4 got left out of the recruit SLB this weekend. Why would anyone be enticed to climb up to 51 to play how you want them to, if you scrap events for them to spent the mats for more than a month? I’ve got no reason to do anything when you leave me behind.

[wicked delta]

The cosmic choice event did not appear. I am ops 35, what are the level requirments ?

[wild pelican]

It'd be nice if shields WORKED PROPERLY for incursion. How do I put up a 1 day shield and get raided 8 hours later? Where does this make sense Scopely?

[sinful heart]

There are two trains of thought on that, both plausible.

One, scopes “oops” the shields just to generate conflict. (Totally something they would do)

Or they have “interns” or whale VIPs friendly to their cause and let them bypass the shield. Also something I would not doubt as I quite confident that I have interacted with scopy moles before.

[wild pelican]

One thing is for certain. I am not pleased with this. I'd ask for comp but we know Scopely won't right their wrongs.

At least give me a Dunce cap avatar for believing incursions would go without a hitch lol

[sinful heart]

We aren’t people to them, that we complain is treated more like a PC fan that is a little loud, for as much as they care.

Hammy just slaps the case to get it to quiet for a second.

[wild pelican]

This graphics card is gonna melt down!

[sinful heart]

Lord knows any real combat heats my phone to highhell! Incursions are kinda pointless for me once I have to juggle folks. Don’t know what they have done to their code, but my phone doesn’t like it.

[wild pelican]

I can't even play this on a new phone I bought last year. Game loads and then crashes. lol

Get to base view. Home screen!

[lunar heron]

Not sure if this this something that can be added. BUT mainly for Incursion stats. It would Be awesome to be able to see the AMOUNT of Resources LOST by being raided. Primarily knowing WHO loses the MOST Recourses would help our zone out that much more. (it also would help ID those that are intentionally giving RSS to the other zone, Because there are a few on our server that like to do that(despite the lies they say)
Also would be nice to see the amount of WIN vs Losses someone has within PVP ship to ship or Base and base. But the 1st point is the primary ask for this post.

[barren latch]

So who at scoply came up with the SMART IDEA to do enable TAKEOVER while a incursion is running and everyone is on the diffrent server fighting

Like are you kidding?

The enemy server camps now in our territory

[tacit zephyr]

I used to have doubts. That it wasn't a mistake, but something intentional on Scopely's part. But after so much time, and with them doing nothing, I'm practically certain it was intentional and not a mistake. So I highly doubt they'll compensate you for something that wasn't a mistake.

[wild pelican]

The comp would be a joke anyway. 😂

[rapid tree]

server 139 also just had Takeover with incursion and Rivals camped us out off our Territory most from my aliance got like 120 points From that takeover and we also nearly had lost the Takeover just with 5 points ahead this needs to change !!!!!!!

[visual solstice]

That wouldn’t turn into bullying and be used in a terrible way at all. Surely not lol

[visual anchor]

D…. all of the above. Let’s face it. Incursions isn’t really compatible with big hunks of this game. But Scopely will never admit their error, so instead they try to shoehorn us into a day long event that has nothing to do with the rest of the game.

[tacit zephyr]

The problem is that Scopely doesn't consider it a mistake, because they make money from the four whales who use the incursion to make content for YouTube and monetize it. These are the same whales who whisper in Scopely's ear how great they are and how awesome their events are. They aren't players; they're content creators with in-game privileges.

[mighty osprey]

It's funny to see that they insist so much on incursions but they don't update the rewards or the store. It's honestly sad to participate for so little.

[tacit zephyr]

I'd love to see that famous VIP chat room exclusively for whales that Scopely has, just to see what kind of comments the whales post and the preferential treatment Scopely gives them.

[sinful heart]

I am just amazed at the number of folk who get off on seal clubbing. For nothing but the purpose of seal clubbing.

I mean, it isn’t worth the time to raid someone once you are ACTUALLY powerful enough to do it.

It is purely a griefer mechanism designed to exploit folks.

[north granite]

Wait until you have to start creating one off alliances just so you can log in on pc, use mods, and have somewhere to dump all the par you already can’t use because of the tiny fraction you’re allowed to convert to sigma daily, your alliance level dictates you’ll never be able to donate par again, and you don’t want to give up 100T points on a lag induced force scoop during incursions.

[woven olive]

What is this??? How do we redeem more trophies in such limited time? <@&509690795536941056> @queen kindle

[sinful heart]

You don’t. Scoply doesn’t care about customer satisfaction, they care about their metrics and pain points.
Once you don’t care how fast you do things, those tricks become less an issue.

[north cairn]

Infinite Incursions: Design Suggestion Game feature: Opt in/ Opt out of Infinite Incursions. Non-participants are "golden bubbled" for the duration of the event. Reasoning: This is a simple game feature that would provide event outcomes that are directly based on players who are engaged vs. those who don't know/don't care/don't want to participate/have low or no personal stakes in the outcome. This nonparticipatory/unengaged player demographic is a consistent source of Incursion losses for 101 and other long established servers. Thank you for your attention.

[sinful heart]

Well once you do that you realize just how unpopular it really except for the whales who spent lots of money and want to seal club for their pleasure. Folks don’t like their negative energy put on display like that man. They want to say a “majority” want this 🙄.

[left marlin]

<@&509690795536941056> Plz ask the Overlords to go back to letting higher Ops players score in Fac Hunt by upgrading Fac ships. It makes no sense, and is grossly unfair. If players are willing to spend time and/or money to reach the top echelons, why are they being punished for it with more unnecessary grinding? It’s just another straw on the camel’s back that’s causing so much burnout among higher OPs players 🤦‍♂️

[boreal coyote]

I’m not there personally yet (56, mines a cake walk ) but I second as I hear this a lot in Alliance Chat. Lots of high 60s are really turned off by it.

[sinful heart]

Yes, it is annoying to lose the ability to just use ships (ops 65), however, the build scrap game gets old really quickly and not sure if the numbers match up or if because it’s been forever since I actually grinded out the FH, but each leg doesn’t seem as “painfully” long as I remember back in the early 50’s. So not sure. 🤷‍♂️. (At least the loot got better)

[coarse hound]

Now that the first round of weekly Outpost-events is almost over, I'm utterly disappointed that from the rewards of the battlepass there is no directive available, only mats for the building and to upgrade the outpost itself ! But what we really need is plunder, plunder and more plunder!!! For FC Sisko and another FC-seat, which both cost tons of plunder! (Not to mention really helpful currencies from the refine which also need plunder) and this essential plunder is only available from the Outpost-runs directly - but without directives, it is suuuch a bottleneck in income!
I mean, come on: 1x normal and 1x elite outpost per week ??? And that only if you can afford the double-pull for the elite-directives, which needs - Who would have thought - PLUNDER!!!
you need to increase the directives-income via adding to the battlepass and additionally reduce the required directives (at least for the normal runs) down to 300 like it is the case for the solo wave defense ! There these two changes work well hand in hand without being too stressful to not cap your directives!
Please think about it, as otherwise the outpost-mechanic will soon be forgotten as you starve us to death on it!

[visual swallow]

outpost event rewards.... this is wrong in so many levels. where are the 6* rare crystal??? they ruined the directive sourcing and came up with this event that dont pay the mats u really need... simple and direct: this loop is dead and gone if u dont pay for it

[opaque jacinth]

let's rename the event then - FindTheBase

[haughty minnow]

I haven't heard anyone say they were actually doing faction hunt in a couple of years. Rewards arent even worth the effort to open and read the event

[runic meadow]

How would that make them more 💰 💰 💰 💰 💰, you forget they don’t care.

[vagrant topaz]

Hi

[sullen yew]

Feedback after reading the above, chats on our and different servers:

• 1. There is a big need to have more awarnes of when incursions start (having a locked "event starting in x hours.." should be easypeasy to do) AND/OR, option to in/out for incursions, a day prior start. Similar as is for faction hunt/rep event, but a player opts in/out a day before it actualy starts (this is becouse its always starts on sunday, when people generaly enjoy time for themself/friends/family..)
     If opted out: you get an undroppable shield - no pvp for a day. Or you get sent to another, farming/relaxing server. Nothing to complicated to implement.
• 2. No takeovers during incursions.... Make it fair, eighter ALL zones get takeovers during incursions, or none of them have it. Or cut incursion short, doubt anyone would complain if it would end few hours sooner.
• 3. If the dayly events/incursion events dont start/end on the same time becouse of daytime savings or whatever, add more time to the store that it overlaps with daylys... or even simpler, leave it open for 48h.... all stores should be open at min 48days
• 4. Make it competitive, reward activity and boldness.... make scoring work in a way that it promotes beeing ballys. For example, add a marginal multiplier if you hit bigger players ships, and "demultipliyer" if hitting or been wiped by a lower lvl players.

My feedback:
Other then event time not beeing synced with dayly events, no complains, im always in top 10 slbs, changes would be decremental for me. But I keep hearing same old complains since 2020.... realy dissapointing players arent heard. Not suprised that by drop in activity. Actualy, im impressed frustrated players are still keeping up. Hats down to them 🫡

[rose ice]

For what it's worth-

I appreciated the changes this month on Galactic Rush.

And also- I appreciated the fact that the normal weekend mats spend started a day early on Friday. It encouraged more participation in our alliance. 3 day overlap of Galactic Rush / Token spend event (instead of just 2) encouraged all of us to spend more.

And that's what you guys want too, right? You want us to spend and ascend.

So- win, win

I think you got it right with this combo. Our alliance enjoyed it. Thanks 🖖

see I try to be constructive, @obsidian gulch

[flat coral]

When was the last time G5+ got a battle pass that wasn't

• unity
• domination
• generic hostiles
• mining

Like we don't even get away teams anymore. 😅 Is that gone forever as a battle pass event? It's been like Sept/Oct since we had it last.

[rose ice]

I'm cool with it 💅

[fluid igloo]

While i still don't like the concept, i agree here. Running it with an overlapping mat spend is good

[flat coral]

It's whatever except it gets really repetitive really fast. The only good thing is when you have 3-4 events that all finish at the same time.

[candid crow]

They should take real action when we report messages in the game chat where a player insults you, just for attacking them during endless raids.

[hollow lichen]

they dont take action for proper heinous behaviour, cheating, botting and death threats and you think they give a flying rats **** about insults?

[dusky fox]

disappointed that the Faction Hunt, Alliance Faction LB! was extended by 24 hours. and, at that, without increasing the rewards

[candid crow]

At list un my server, they Kick out of the alliances, we dont tolerate this behavior

[coarse hound]

Truely spoken, I wonder why they removed Away-Teams and instead added Domination again - Away teams is at least possible when you are short on mats (due to the other BP-events and expensive upgrades in G6...)

[idle parcel]

Any word on what the new content will be? They used to tell us a few days or a week ahead of time. The fact that it's so hush hush most likely means it will be more things we will hate, adding to an already growing list.

[lean cargo]

Why was the "discount" only applied to single chest pulls but not the multiples in the Galactic Rush event store?

[runic meadow]

No complaints 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[viral kite]

Just have read the Patch Notes. Just one more reason not to Play Vger. It becomes more and more work. What you are calling challenging. Is challenging for the Big Spenders and close to impossible for the Rest of us. Its not challenging its just annoying. Like Outpost , like everything you brought to us lately in Alpha Stadium of progress. Fix everything else and dont bring new Stuff nobody wants instead you bringing new packages and see your Dollar Bills. You promised to do better , but hey you are doing worse than before and i thought that wasnt possible. You hear what we say ? What we demand ? Absolutely Not. Dont hear on your Streamers. You pay them to play. They wont break their own neck , but they will milk you aslong its possible. Hear out the real Players here but that will become just a wish. Let me tell you. Server Stability, Content you promised ,you heard us ?, you promised to do better. You are doing the opposite and its a shame

[fluid nest]

can't for the life of me understand why this got removed... I mean, this part right here is a clear "you don't pay, you won't be able to do these challenges"

[sullen yew]

Nah bro, I can't when scored 2nd, 3th and 6th in slb's... but others do, alot 😂

[normal iris]

So F2P can't get the Excelsior in 3 months and will get FOMO'd to pay for it?

[chrome hill]

so everything for 51+ again, hmmm feeling forgotten again

[dreamy folio]

@near saddle Suder and Janeway SNW? did you invent time travel and got them a wormhole?

looks like you really need to sell more Excelsior packs.... or do you get an Incentive on it?

[weak wharf]

Free ice cream bar in the commissary for every excelsior sold

[sinful heart]

That right there. They are boldly manipulating the situation because we don’t care and have gotten savy.

They can keep it up. I love watching a dumpster fire.

[novel totem]

<@&509690795536941056> From the available Content Creator outlets, the new hostile is beleived to be very hard. That being said, at least one hostile that it replaces on wednesday's is also not considered easy. I don't want to pre-pitch-fork, however if changing out these hostiles will prevent me from achieving the "epic" milestones of the challenge track (after purchasing the ship last month) I most likely will be done with this game (Ops 71).

[weak wharf]

$100 to do content should be more than enough.

[errant chasm]

Why is it the older the ship the longer it takes to unlock in the Archive? over 28 days for the Mantis assuming you stockpiled 5000 data shards to begin with is ridiculous.

[quasi swift]

It's 7 am and still can't log on this is ridiculous, so much for mining event i was near the top of leaderboard not that that event is important but it's a solo and alliance event and the principal of it. And we'll get 1000 field rations for this B.S.

[dreamy folio]

Prime archive unlock only 4 times 99.99

[idle parcel]

It's great you're giving another archive, but it's not cool that it's going to take at least a month to complete it because you increased how much mats are needed, and you still cap the RSS needed at 5000. We've been sitting on those for a while, so we could easily be done with it in one swoop. It's meant as a qol improvement, but you make the process itself a longer process than it needs to be, defeating the purpose of it in the first place.

[dreamy folio]

wait for the Prime, reducing it by 200%, or in Scopely math 20%

[sinful heart]

Again, diminishing returns and punishing advancements are the only thing they know how to do.

They want pain points not player satisfaction.

[cold forge]

Its a miracle.....

[idle parcel]

Ugh, you're right, and they dare roll out something called qol improvement while doing this.

The only pain I have at this point is it pains me wondering why I'm still playing this game. It takes up so much time.

[craggy elm]

I just came over to have a look if something has changed.

After ~4 years of playing I retired at OPS71 because the game took so much time and scopely tried a lot to punish players who don't spend more than the regular battle pass.

Fun was gone, a lot of friends stopped aswell.
I miss some aspects of the game but not the way scopely ruining it more month by month.

I had three tries:
7 day pause
1 month pause
now 2+ months away and not coming back

[coarse hound]

What the kuckuck... ??? Are they going into the same "no good officer works, go back to the outdated ones" as the, have done for the Outposts ??? really not fun, as if the "same level as your OPS" wouldn't be punishing enough!!

[restive wolf]

We are 6 months away from having to use Origins Saru and the Sarcophagus

[restive wolf]

Create the problem, sell the solution mobile game design that has ruined most of the industry and certainly everything that can be considered "live service".

[old jolt]

Improve the v’ger hostile spawn rate been sat in becca for 5 mins and its empty

[kindred lintel]

once again g4 players get the shaft, would it kill you guys to remove focus from g5 for a month to bestow some good fortune upon us g4 plebs?

[spark radish]

Please speed up V'Ger hostile spawns. I've killed all the ones in this system.

[vestal cloak]

Donating hard-earned trit for these missions is just mean

[sinful heart]

Dude, as a child of the 80’s whose first system was an Atari 2600, these people who create these games are pure evil.

[small rover]

🤣 The single bar of Latinum in the loot pool

Swarm missions? I've completed a bunch of those already by now

[shadow trellis]

Don’t go spending all at once

[small rover]

I find it hilarious and absolutely bonkers that the pool includes a single bar of latinum, lol.

[sinful heart]

Why? For years they had a $100 “vault” of lat that contain 2000 lat. these folks have way too inflated values for their pixels.

It is borderline criminal the way they prey on their customers, you think there would fair play laws somewhere 🙄

[agile latch]

Rmemeber the time when event schedule was interesting, you had to plan to win slbs and everything. Now it reduced to boring repetitive things and some new that is usually heroic

[waxen totem]

It’s clear from the schedule there’s no recruit SLB with officer depot tokens for g3/g4 players this month. That makes two months in a row 👎🏼👎🏼

[lost phoenix]

The new event descriptions are almost indecipeherable. What is an "Observation Upgrade Material"? The building uses schematics and in a small quantity, so the Observation events don't make much sense/ <@&509690795536941056>

[halcyon goblet]

ah, i c the vger respawn is untouch, so thx for let us kill 30 of them

[glossy sleet]

Go for it and redeem it. I tried 5 times and each time was rewarded with 1 lat bar.

[vale laurel]

<@&509690795536941056> Still having the respawn issues.

[candid quail]

Well. Observatory event went live 10 minutes after I already upgraded. Thanks for that scopely.

Good job on releasing that 😡

[small rover]

That's just not right, lol....

[turbid hamlet]

Where are the mix of event SLBs for upgrades anymore. No Officer XP, no Mirror stuff, some of us are just getting into these trees and competitions are something to look forward to.

[elfin mural]

you have an event where we need to kill at least 30 VGER hostiles, yet all players are waiting in the system for hostiles to spawn!

[fading veldt]

codes?

[strong lintel]

You should maybe make it so the event description features looking in the event store. It would also be nice to know that I would have to donate drops I don't have the ability to earn yet. Mid-Ops is so awful because it's clear that you don't even try to make these events playable.

[candid quail]

Our server has spawned vger hostiles but they aren’t scoring.

[warped gazelle]

@rose oracle @full swan
I don't understand why you constantly throw obstacles in our way and make your job easier by denying us the use of officers in the game. I didn't understand why SNW couldn't be used in VGER. Now I don't understand why you're adding more (Janeway, Suder). Just make these events paid tokens if you don't value your players and don't mess with our heads. You've already secured it with the EPIC challenge, so why are you coming up with more and more nonsense? Don't you want to move my mouse every day for me?

[glossy sleet]

Right. Still funny though

[warped gazelle]

No way!!!!!!!! 🤯

But it counts only upgrade material for this building. Not initialy build. So build this thing, doesnt count to that event

[lusty pike]

still empty systems is this supposed to be like that?

[stone glade]

<@&509690795536941056> Can we please get some more hostiles? (EU125)

[strong lintel]

I keep seeing the posts about empty systems for the 51+ crowd and am waiting for Scopely to create a hostile dispenser where you pay latinum to spawn a hostile. They mess it up and when you pay 200k latinum it spawns a hostile outside the system boundary.

They could also make the next arc be based around the TNG episode where Riker is in an insane asylum. The whole arc could be around gaslighting us into thinking certain ships, hostiles, and drops exist. You end up getting progress randomly from completing actions in the game.

[tiny lotus]

lol... I'm L46 with NX level-locked and nowhere near ready to jump 5 ops levels so Scopely gives me another option.... kill +17k xindis in 2 days for these nice prizes 🤦‍♂️

I'll be skipping that one

[strong lintel]

That seems like a common theme for mid-ops people. It's easier to just do something else lol.

[turbid hamlet]

Knew there was a problem with hostile totals in V'ger space all last month, create another SLB event around killing them and still having the same problem.. I'm going to guess its revolving around the invisible ones we cant see without the Excelsior. So Cap the total possible of those hostiles!

[ancient basalt]

The Swarm Biominerals Donation event needs a bigger slider. 250 maximum when most players of my level have thousands is just annoying. Also 16 officer shards from 6,500 chests should be shown as “No chance” not “chance”

[lost phoenix]

Are the ONLY arc events running in week 1? No arc events are listed beyond the 9th or so - CotA for next week. So these arc events are NOT repeating?

[chrome hill]

This event is 77,100 hostiles to hit, as franklin max as not lvl 40 and not prepare to jump yet

[grand fulcrum]

Why is Vael in here, she is over a year old and easily maxed via DTI so her shards are worthless now <@&509690795536941056>

[queen gale]

Sample size event in the event store rewards amalgam refinery tokens for plundered cargo. Unfortunately those are removed from the recruits once the amalgam is maxed out in the IA. So, a level 39 player is going to max out honorguard worf and buy all skins in the amalgam refinery with the 1000s they are getting. Here I am at ops 42 with a maxed amalgam, and I can't use any of the amalgam refinery tokens at all.

[near valve]

Why do all these say JOIN NOW if they don't open in 2 days 21 hours? I shouldn't even be seeing them.

[noble aspen]

On behalf of everyone ops 1-19, thanks…

[high aurora]

@full swan I'm coining the hashtag #naughty4Scotty from now on when referencing the Scotty's Research events

[gritty haven]

I'm lvl 38 and getting uss Franklin bp's in my battlepass - are you crazy? What would i do with a second Franklin?

[sand geyser]

Are you really going to make every one put in a ticket for their vger daily track

[small rover]

Did a 50 pull. Lmao. Only once for the FMs. The rates suck.

[glossy sleet]

You got more than 1 latinum bar?

[small rover]

Second 50 pull. Slightly better with Directives 🤣

Yeah, 41 times for that first 50 pulls, it was a single bar. Smh

33 times for second batch. Interesting. lol.

[glossy sleet]

Lmao I must have terrible RNG then. The swarm one I keep hitting 1. The plunder I hit 2100 lat.

[small rover]

I won't be getting the plunder one for at least a couple weeks. I ain't going to 31 yet until after I get enough for T4 Squall. This arc's timing is bonkers to include Amalgam as a ship focused on for a range of Ops. lol

When I'd already planned to go up an Ops this very month 🤣 The timing, lol

[lapis zephyr]

Oh c’mon - so we have an option where we never ever use those things OR we have an option to get at least 1lat for them - I go for option 2 - at least 1lat - I just pulled 5m lat from stuff - so shush and collect. 🙈

[tardy hawk]

BROKEN EVENT - **Sample Size ALB ** the plundered cargo and Mk 2 frequency modulator Event Store donation options have disappeared! My alliance cannot progress on the ALB

[kindred lintel]

so im out with the boys farming lat like gangbusters and now the plug gets pulled?

[spark radish]

How do you get that pull?

[lapis zephyr]

From an event that just disappeared…

[timid steppe]

How to defeat the xi aquatic and reptile with out nx-01?

[lapis zephyr]

Now hey - you didn’t just remove the first ever best event? You didn’t do that, right? 🙈

[small rover]

Wow, that's just wrong to remove it after I pulled 100 total times 🤣

[lapis zephyr]

I didn’t

Had maybe 20 pulls

[small rover]

RIPperoni. I got a massive surplus of the Biominerals. Maybe they're reworking it to have a cap on pulls rather than unlimited.

Oh, there's the #🛠-known-issues about it now

[tardy hawk]

"We were losing too much money on this event so we killed it"

[lapis zephyr]

Ahahahahaha - so they made the best thing ever and realized it was a mistake 😂😂😂

[small rover]

Not the best, the RNG on it was horrid, lol. Not a single officer shard in 100 pulls

[tardy hawk]

I pulled it several hundred times. I got about 4 million lat from it 👍. Hardly any shards tho LOL

[prisma gate]

wow okay turning backs on players to take away something that rewarded us for once for actually grinding

[small rover]

I was gonna do more pulls over the next little while. lol.

Be nice to have them mining BDA officers at a higher tier than what I got now

AMS and ALB are still live, just can't score in them now with removal of event store exchange thing. Smh

[spark lagoon]

Thx for 5m lat tho

[small rover]

https://tenor.com/bWgAn.gif

[elder warren]

#🛠-known-issues message

Of course, after I had spent all mine to get a good run at it, and after I have grinded hours for more, they take it down. Knew I shouldn't have wasted my time and resources on it.

<@&509690795536941056> are we going to get compensated for our wasted time, effort and resources?

[lapis zephyr]

Best since I got 5M lat from it. Don’t care bout officers because they are maxed.

Oh no. They really really really pulled it 🙈

[small rover]

I had enough Biominerals for a fair few more pulls, lol.

Like maybe 80 more times

[spark lagoon]

Finally farming swarm had a purpose lol

[lapis zephyr]

Hammy said it will be back up again shortly

[small rover]

With a cap, I predict, on pulls 🤣

[small rover]

Or a cooldown

[tardy hawk]

cap pulls on an ALB would be poo poo

[lapis zephyr]

Probs this

[spark radish]

They ruined G4 so much I went to G5 before I wanted to... It's terrible.

[lapis zephyr]

So we were taking too much 😂

[tardy hawk]

capping pulls on a ALB would be saying "bigger alliances win"

[edgy bison]

The new missions aren’t in the holodeck

[molten marlin]

One is under TOS, the other is on a mission planet

[tardy hawk]

The event is back guys, looks like lower lat. But still pretty good!

[small rover]

👀

Still seems to be the same for my Ops 30 bum. Interesting. Maybe a reboot in case it's a client issue.

[tardy hawk]

I think they changed the chances (probabilities) NOT the rewards themselves

[lapis zephyr]

Just take it all as long as you can

[small rover]

https://giphy.com/gifs/doctorwho-doctor-who-dr-the-rings-of-akhaten-WpalL2ofcbok7kHRJm

[tardy hawk]

If I were to guess they make the big lat reward half the probability. But I ain't gonna compute that!! i'm troubled but not that troubled

[small rover]

3 pulls of 50 times, still no officer shards. Lmao. Purrcentages are nasty for that, I guess.

[tardy hawk]

Ops 34? to 39 have an amalgam plunder event. It's very farmable. Next time you see me i'm gonna be in a gold plated limo

[small rover]

🤣

Gasp! A T'Pol shard after over a dozen 50 pulls!

[tardy hawk]

those armada directives are nice, for sure

jealous! i have a big stack of the swarm biomineral thingies that i will never have a use for. You ops out of them at 33 or 34 and can't even use them in refinery

[prisma gate]

still no reliable source of rare directives

[small rover]

I haven't needed to farm swarms, lol.

[prisma gate]

imagine doing your armada loot pulls and getting literally 2 rare directives

[tardy hawk]

I've been max pulling unc mada loot pulls for months and finally was able to do the Rare FKR 10K AT task last time. Seriously insane sourcing

[small rover]

And now it's a Hoshi shard after 9 more 50 pulls. Sheesh. Then another shard after 2 more. RNGesus be stingy

Grand total of..... 2 Sato, 2 Shran, 3 T'Pol. Out of 34x pulls of 50.

[prisma gate]

taken away again......

imagine. so much time and effort taking away from the community instead of helping

so basically now any alliance ahead stays ahead

[small rover]

Cooldown finally appeared, lol

Called it, lol

[prisma gate]

might as well end the event, no? since we know who the winners will be

[small rover]

🙃

[warped grove]

haha, i was just coming here to say that

[prisma gate]

took away the slider too. 25 max pull.

[small rover]

.... Ew

Guess it's just as well I used up all my Biominerals before that change

[warped grove]

we just can't have nice things i guess

[prisma gate]

or compete. now the alliances in the lead win the event.

[hardy belfry]

Why did the mid Ops Sample Size Event Store return with a timer and an max claim amount, when it did not have that before? 3 hours Grind for Loot seem somehow not as worth the time as before…

[gaunt terrace]

Errm, outpost directives changed from plunder to credits? I really really hope this is a bug and not deliberate.

[molten marlin]

different refinery

is still there

[gaunt terrace]

Thank you, just realised I was in in the wrong refinery. That had me panicking for a minute 🤦‍♂️

On a different note, yeah, buying them from Challenge is a no go for the considerable future. Add a new drip as the masses demand it, but lets not make it attainable. I need 600 to start 1. Not happening and outpost is a bit naff still.

[jade oxide]

Great job breaking hostile spawns for challenge

[little zenith]

Way to go! Scoply limit us 😪

[tranquil oasis]

Amazing work cementing alliances in first place for Sample Size - ALB zero chance of any placement change with what was done.

[sinful heart]

What the heck and where the heck are those?! I have tons of that crap I would like to get rid of.

[little zenith]

It for ops 20 to 50 in event store

[sinful heart]

Ah, so not for me got it 🤘🫡

[proven juniper]

Scopely I think you missed some zeros.

Since I know it’ll come back as intended, I’d like to know why you hate the players who already maxed theirs ships.

[hollow crag]

So what's up with the laggy regeration if vger hostiles. Was in the lvl 53 system and we literally cleaned out all the hostile and had to wait at least 2 mins before they respawned. Of course my buff time did not stop.

[spark radish]

They want you to go to G5.

[proven juniper]

Then they should stop slow dripping all the specialty ships between me and there, it’s the primary reason I’m slow rolling my way up 🤷‍♂️

[spark radish]

I agree, they are forcing people in a very unpleasant way. I didn't want to go to G5, but the absolute lack of any worthwhile content at G4 pushed me to.

[proven juniper]

Unfortunately for Scopely, I’m more likely to just quit

[spark radish]

Honestly don't know if they understand the concept.

[proven juniper]

Sadly yea, it doesn’t seem like they get it.

Especially since all this is the opposite of their promise that “past investments will matter” yet here they are actively punishing people for investing

[spark radish]

Absolutely don't trust them on anything these days.

[inner portal]

(i think this also fit here, but i'm too lazy to type it again) It's unfair to those who have already been able to change everything during first 4 hours of the event. If the event changes, then the AMS score related (score obtained from the modified event) must be reseted too.

[dusky mortar]

In my opinion, Scopely is doing that to make us fight eachother for the hostile kills.

[tardy hawk]

i think one line of reasoning would be that all alliances had the same chance to leap ahead with the zero cooldown version of the event store bundle

[inner portal]

for me sounds reasonable too, but every second that pass, more dificult to solve, because people continues donating

[viral kayak]

What in Q's green earth is scopley thinking with these new hostiles! Trying to find that straw to break the camels back??

[mild glacier]

The new Orion hostile changes are absolute GARBAGE! the vast majority of players can no longer kill a single one needed for dailies with any ship or crew. This is the worst game design decision yet!

[viral kayak]

Sucking the fun out of the game one bad decision after the other! Thinking I should just drop tags, go on a one month killing spree and delete the game

[rocky sleet]

I am an ops 70 with a T8 epic, many maxed officers, and maxed FT/CT. Right now I cannot kill a single orion hostile, so I cannot possibly complete the challenge dailies. That means that 2 days a week I can't progress in the challenge track, meaning that my progression in the last 2 months of content is set back by 25% because there is no alternative. I'm not going to spend on a game that stopped being fun 6 months ago, and if it weren't for my friends in game I wouldn't even log on.

Give me something fun, challenging (not impossible) and engaging, and I might be willing to buy something. For now I'm mostly online to chat with friends.

[wide nacelle]

Damn these new hostiles are a fun challange. Can only kill 3 per Hull at my Ops

[eternal dust]

This is for mission briefing sms I was given pattern buffers and the event shows up in the event tab but the missions aren’t in the holodeck. Anyone help ?

[floral folio]

V’Ger hostel changes took them from a challenge to an impossibility. Please fix now or refund my excelsior purchase. No point in epic track if I cannot kill the normals.

[limpid quiver]

Mine shows in the archive section

[boreal coyote]

There is a lvl 51 newer v’ger system. It starts with an H. There is a planet mission there.

[quasi swift]

Anyone suggestions on crews for the 70 vgers? Only thing I've found that works is Fat Mudd Ro Mudd and Annorax with Borg Hugh Chapel Torres Paris and WOK Joachim below on a tier 11 Krencha. One kill per run. They made this way to hard compared to the others. Another pay wall This is B. S.

[dapper halo]

Dear Scopely developers, please resign immediately and never program again.

Sincerely
Everyone

[kind stirrup]

hoooookay these vger orion are steaming hot garbage please fix dems

[quasi swift]

Well that crew worked now not working W. T .F

[little sinew]

<@&509690795536941056> Vger arc complete trash and now even worse with new patch... challenge good idea but then made worse by a backwards attitude on vger hostiles. Making content undoable, unfair and torturous. players deserve a fair chance
Quality of life gameplay....
That's rich

[quasi swift]

I'm done spending money on this game, not even the the stupid $20 BPs anymore. I had slowed down but still bought most of the BPs but they keep making everything worse and impossible to do, I was doing fine with VGER hostiles now I can't kill one. Not another dime

[remote flame]

There wasn't a cooldown earlier today, and apparently the loot was better, too.

69750 points / 5 points per Xindi = 13950 things to kill in 2 days. Yes, that seems perfectly reasonable to me. It's not even 14k.

[quasi swift]

I've made 28 trips for 96 out of 100 damage and only killed 4 hostiles this is ridiculous when I was finishing both dailies with less than one hull before these new one's

That's definitely not worth doing that twice a week

[idle parcel]

Try this crew with all the buffs etc, but I agree. They need to scale these way back. We have ops 72 people giving upon these Vger ones.

[quasi swift]

Ty, I'll try that

[idle parcel]

Yeah, I wasted over an hr on those 💩s.

[little zenith]

They didn't change the loot just limit how much we can turn in and add the timer. I made almost 2m in latnium.

[idle parcel]

I did cerritos buff, damage exo, cloaking, Lorca's fist, and the attack pattern and was able to get 6. With just cloaking and cerritos, 1 or 2 ugh.

[white river]

I cannot kill a single one with the crew above mentioned, with full buff, nothing, so frustrating

[quasi swift]

Didn't work for me, only thing I've tried that's worked is Fat Mudd Ro Mudd and Annorax, good for one kill. I did max fortification AND Cerritos boost which I've never needed and it was good for 3 kills only this is some B.S I see a lot of people passing on these. Not worth the time or repair bills <@&509691205798592532> they better address this or nobody will do this stupid arc except for the whales that'll buy anything and everything. Every arc this game pushes me farther and farther away and makes me spend less and less. I made it to 70, that's a good level to retire at. Hard to walk away from a game that was fun and the people ect. But they keep going away from what the players what and have been saying for 2 or 3 years now and take good a good idea and scopley it where it ruins it..

[white river]

The feeling to quit the game comes up again

[plush smelt]

<@&509691205798592532> so not only dose my game jeep closing and reopening but each claim throws me back to the top of the list please stop making the game worse and unplayable

[frozen dock]

Absolutley awful more nerfed officers and stupid hostiles please try and make the game even less fun carry on like this and this game will be dead by the end of the year

[noble aspen]

Scopely, it's okay to make challenges harder, but players HATE it when you make their stuff weaker or take it away.

[sacred goblet]

imagine, they did it only so you spend a money for a new content, as you WONT be able to finish the "challange track" as they replaced two days of hard but doable vgor to impossible to do vgor, so you wont get enough points in other days

[frozen dock]

No wonder they are losing players at the rate they are and do everthing to make it speed up as the try and grab money from those left if this does not change i am proabably done with this and any other scopley product

[sacred goblet]

i were progressing last month to get max cube for my ops (67) to do the vgor as i were struggling killing them, now i just cant kill a single on xD it's not a joke, its a disaster ;d

[vernal breach]

Unreal. I've spent the last money I'll ever drop on this pile. I managed to kill 2 Orion with max research max fort, and then died 9 times in a row with max research Cerritos.

18b cube, max officers in every spot, max ct and ft, no crit equipped. Building level 11.

Everything they can possibly do to make this game suck more they do.

[quasi swift]

Yeah I agree, I've told them for years that the spenders will spend no matter what's thrown at them because they have to have everything now, the casual spenders will buy $20 BPs but now the $20 Arc BPs has been broken into 5 or 6 $20 BPs so you have to spend $100 to get what you used to get for $20. And people still buy because it's easier to spend $20 here and there than $100 at once. But those extra $100 packs that were once a month or once every two months and zero now because of the other BPs and because the value isn't there. $100 won't upgrade one gun much less 2 to 4 things like before so their greed prevents from what we used to spend, the people who got to 70 first are penalized and the G4 G5 players are rewarded with lots of mats but rushed to advance ops so buildings and research suffer and they can't kill at their levels. We can't advance because we paid for 70 high G6 ect or even more for 71 and above but they figure well they spent before let's milk them fpr more, instead they have lost players and revenue because of greed trying to make people spend more

[plush smelt]

Yeah scopley dont care if i quit but I do thanks for nothing and destroying what was once a fun game

[halcyon goblet]

so far i am able to kill exactly one orion vger per trip, each time tried another setup (everytime the result got even worse) - i am going to skip this, not wasting an hour for ten kills (minutes of warp, kill one, die at the second / recall, repair, rinse&repeat)

[gray stirrup]

What ft/ct are you using?

[halcyon goblet]

the last time i've spend was WoK and then we had ... events

[naive viper]

1b damage per point for the new orion hostiles? What planet are you people on? Not engaging with this arc. How are f2p or low spenders supposed to get the supposedly f2p ship bps if we cant do the daily challenges?

[lime orchid]

As an f2p I need a lot of rounds 😂
It is possible but feels a bit wrong.
This crew is best this far for me and can kill 1 68 😂🙈

[gritty fox]

<@&509690795536941056>
So, what happens if ur an over achiever?
Shouldn't the 1's that U've ALREADY completed, count Retroactively, if u CAN'T re-do them?
None of these r available in my holodeck...

[vast breach]

67 Vger orion hostiles impossible to kill with 15B cube!

[gritty fox]

Remember, for those of us who read the patch notes, no SNW crew, Janeway, or Suder even BD vs V'ger entities.

[outer dome]

<@&509690795536941056>
Do not like this change.
Why was it made?
Did we get to much rewards?
This heavly impacts the ALB - alliances you were able to use the unlimited trade in now have a giant head start.
Change it back or prepare a comp chest!

[lofty sonnet]

Agreed, this throttling is garbage.

[viral drift]

One way to solve the insufficient spawning in the V'ger systems. Now they're always full on entrance but no more players too. Way to go Scam-pely

[novel totem]

<@&509690795536941056> as suspected the new hostiles are not killable for me right now - at least not in a way what I would consider sane for a daily challenge. It directly impacts last month’s purchase - the excelsior - as not being able to kill the hostiles will leave me with unclaimable epic reward milestones. Changing these mechanics retroactively when there is a purchase involved probably is a felony in my country. This needs immediate adressing otherwise this most likely is the end of my journey here (ops 71)

To be 100% clear: I don’t have issues when you introduce content that is not for me or my power level I can decide to opt out / not participate. However changing stuff the way you did which directly impacts purchased rewards is a huge no-no

[gray stirrup]

New hostiles overtuned, again.

[fluid gust]

leslie with full synergy and maxed neelix works, but it's tedious with 1 kill per run.

[loud fossil]

You're doing better than me. I've burned 9 hulls for no kills against 69s. I've tried all the crewing suggestions I've seen floating around. Not an enjoyable thing and that's yet another week where I cannot complete the entire Challenge track.

[errant wind]

Ops 71 , I am so furious ATM on the pure greed of this company, Orion for dailies is insane, 150 mill vengeance with full buffs can’t kill one . Are you f and n listening scopley
Think my days are numbered

[wet crag]

yeah, the Orion days are simply not happening for me, which basically means there's no point in looking at the overall challenge track for a week either

[pseudo stump]

so the challenge track I though was really good, i wasn't a huge fan of rotating hostiles but was able to still do it. using multiple hulls on some days. but now with these orion hostiles 2 days a week you basically just took last months feature and shot it dead since i wont be able to complete it now.

[rare frost]

Incredibly ignorant decision on their part to suddenly make the v'ger hostiles impossible to kill. Way to pull the rug out from under our feet, THIS stuff is why they're bleeding players at an incredible rate. Sad.

[golden kiln]

Why did you take away the one group of these stupid new hostels that I can actually kill easily without using any boosts and replace them with one that’s been Nerf all the good officers? Bring back silent Wednesdays.

[slate coral]

My crit rate is too high to live against these new vger hostiles.

[golden kiln]

The last month was bad enough and difficult enough but now you take away the one thing that actually let me get some of the completion done and replace it with pure nerfed trash

[ocean barn]

Hey just buy their packs to improve the building come on now you know the drill.

[rare frost]

It would be one thing if it was introduced this way, would end up being something I know to ignore. Changing it after it's been established, in the middle of an SLB? So brain dead. They must have a room full of monkeys coming up with this stuff.

[novel mango]

<@&509690795536941056> Why was a cool down added? Now the people who could cash in early have an unbeatable lead! Can I get my resources refunded since I (we) have no chance of catching up!

[potent rivet]

These V’ger Orion hostiles are way to difficult. I am well researched, high/max officer levels, solid artifacts, and using a t13 Kren. Can’t kill one with any recommended crew at my ops of 72. I have a newly built Vengeance and that barely does anything.

[agile nimbus]

Can't do it All of a sudden so I won't this game is frustration based spending they're driving this game into the ground and they don't get their pushing too far

[inner portal]

<@&509690795536941056> Please change the settings back on donations - super unfair advantage to alliances who had members donate early in the day, when there was a slider up to 50 and no cooldown, some leaderboards is now dominated by a one-person alliance who did all his donations within an hour of event opening. No one can catch up after the addition of a cooldown, multiple 100+ person alliances are way behind in donations. If yoiu change conditions, remember there's an Alliance event underway with that data. I can understand the change, but the fair thing to do is cancel or reset the Alliance ranking scores too. Or return the unlimited exchanges to ensure everyone is on equal footing. AT LEAST SAY SOMETHING ABOUT, NOT SIMPLY IGNORE THE ISSUE

[novel mango]

[weak wharf]

1 kill per hull is awfully expensive

Plus the 5 minute flight. So an hour for 10 kills. Yeah that’s fun

[limpid nimbus]

would you prefer 1 point per hull? thats what i've been dealing with...100 repairs for the little task, no chance for the kill task...

[cloud basalt]

Ops 70 and with G6 epics at T10 or Cube at T16, I'm barely denying these Orion's. Tried all sorts of crews without success. Very poorly balanced - these can't have been play tested.

[proud gale]

Scopely greed know no limits!

[wheat pasture]

All the new building does is increase "base" weapon damage (p.s. Scopely: that word does not mean what you think it means, you ignorant potatoes), which is not going to help AT ALL when you still crit ever weapon for the first three rounds.

[raw bramble]

scoring is delayed, restart game and it should correct

[mental relic]

These Orions...T10 ent e, all kinds of crews Excelsior buff, cerritos buff, titan buff max tech...almost kills one

[lavish basalt]

Looking at these ‘new’ Vger hostiles, can help but correlate the ‘need’ to upgrade the new building in order to fight them.

[tiny mirage]

That's right, but the ship is still listed as destroyed in the game... even though it survived.

[cloud canyon]

The new hostiles and the “nerfing “ of the 2 bridge officers have made VGER unplayable. LV 68 ships I could destroy last week are now unbeatable. Unless this is quickly changed - STFC will kill this entire experience and you’ll have another STARBASE dead feature on your hands that nobody participates in playing.
Get this fixed … quickly !!!

[sacred goblet]

same problems here , trying to kill the 67 with my 14b cube

[sacred goblet]

maybe they want to have a "dead content" as they know whales gonna do the buy anyway, whatever crap they put into game, so who cares, just make new pixels, make it harder, so whales have to buy new stuff to be competete

[ashen notch]

Everything this morning is requiring multiple restarts. Tasks, challenges, even chat. All of it keeps freezing on me.

[raw bramble]

Too be fair its only been just over 24 hours since patch release. Should we really be surprised at this point of things being broken again?

[golden kiln]

Orion hostiles are insane for the level. BRING BACK SILENTS

[oak hornet]

FYI - I've attempted several crews. At OPS 52 I can't kill even one with my ship/crew combo's. Not scaled well for the entry levels into this category. I cannot get my daily done now.

[idle parcel]

Even some whales I know on my server gave up on these new ships.

[idle parcel]

I wasted over an hour and getting killed 6 times until I found a crew that kind of works, but you need all the buffs to go more than one kill per trip. I think we are the beta testers for new content. It's the Microsoft way of doing things. Either that, or their testers have everything maxed.

[golden kiln]

I was actually considering buying the new building pack for the buffs and g7 stuff, but I’m not giving you guys a single freaking dollar for this mess. Not even battle pass. Terrible work. You take away the one good set of hostiles that our leveled fairly and replaced them with monster ones that I can’t even do damage with fully boosted <@&509690795536941056>

[grave rose]

Dailies shouldn’t be impossible Period.

[neon elk]

What ships/crews are you using? I only ask because at ops53 I'm able to kill the 59's with a g4 epic so this may be an account power issue

[idle parcel]

It depends on people's ops, for sure. We have ops 72 struggling with these, as their new ships aren't epic or maxed. I'm 67, so I can't get an epic 6 star until I'm 70. My rare ship works, but I need every buff etc to get more than 1 kill per trip.

[oak hornet]

I tried some of these as well as others on Voyager and Talios (don't have the G4 Epic yet)

[sinful heart]

Can’t go wrong with a “Blue’s Crew” 😜🫡

[oak hornet]

But I can't win with it either thus my comments here.

[agile latch]

Please delete this picture. They will use it what to ban next.

[neon elk]

Yeah therein lies the issue, too many people are skipping stuff like ships and paying the price later. I can dm you my set up if you want to give it a shot.

[sacred goblet]

it doesnt matter, it work only in certain situations, now always not for everyone

[idle parcel]

No daily should be this confusing or hard, period. Spending over an hour being frustrated over different ship and crew fails takes any fun out of the game.

[sinful heart]

Oh, it’s not great, (and it is totally scopy fault) but my Cube was able to get it done in two hulls 🤨. Not something I am going to go out of my way to do at all, just stating support for the Blue Dude’s work 😉

[sacred goblet]

20 hulls, all sort of crew configuration (including ones from the blue) - not a single 67 died against my 14b cube

[candid crow]

Seriously? Is this event heroic or impossible? For those rewards? I don't think it's worth wasting my time.

[steady lark]

I tried a 18ml cube and a 23ml relativty several times with different crew's and didn't kill 1

[novel totem]

What design is this - after 10
Runs:

also 0 acknowledgement 0 communication about this madness

[idle parcel]

Sounds like a repeat of the Augment events.

[subtle nest]

and repeat of trashpoint

[fierce steeple]

Who ever in your game design came up with the idea these new Vger Orion hostiles would be "fun" for players should really assess if they are in the correct job.

Although I can fully see much like with the Reliant, we'll be sold a ship or FT/CT which nullifies Vger hostiles ability regarding the officers.

Very poor move Scopley.

[idle parcel]

Getting a tooth pulled with no anesthesia would be more fun than these new hostiles.

[vernal breach]

We were already sold the ship. It can't hit these, only the special summoned ships which won't count for the daily until the ship is t10 and research is completed.

Absolute garbage.

[sturdy mural]

Do you really find the funny, Scopely - with this new Orion enemies - then you are alone with that feeling

[elder sleet]

It’s too difficult for a daily. Period.

It shouldn’t take 2 plus hours to accomplish. And I still didn’t get a kill. I was able to finish the damage challenge after 20 plus trips and loads of repair rss. It’s NOT worth my time.

[trail adder]

Domination battle pass is not scoring

[visual anchor]

Really….? A tougher vger hostile is Scopely’s answer to what this game really needs? As if the existing ones aren’t next to impossible as it is? What a disaster.

[tiny mirage]

The game lagged like crazy, but individual waves as an event...WOW....you guys are the best money-grubbers.

[frigid patrol]

Event is terrible, its frustrating and mind numbing how clueless this team is. Stupid hostiles only make it worse, I'm down to 8 active members now, congrats scopely. Oh do not make wave defenses a criteria for any event, if you can't keep your game stable, don't add waves in events.

[chrome hill]

BP Event broken: mined 1 raw, 1 parsteel, one dil, killed fed and rom nothing for any of the BP Evented scored

[lilac ocean]

log out after each one, that works :/

[maiden ridge]

Event not scoring

Even reloaded

[cyan basalt]

Why have a Solo waves event on the second day of the new Battlepass. I cant complete it because I did all my solo waves on Monday. You dont give a schedule in advance so no way for me to know that on the 2nd day this event would happen. I suggest making it so regular waves also count?

[chrome hill]

that worked but very dumm

[brisk crypt]

you can also do all the trivia Q's at once, log out, and back in, and they all pop/complete. VERY stupid.

nothing else is scoring tho

[lilac ocean]

wait til u see what they done to the donations slb, cant make it up

[brisk crypt]

hahahaha, i saw that

[prisma gate]

this is really a slap in the face to the players.

at this point why not just change it to something else instead?

[candid crow]

Reset the locatión cache in adjusments in the Game 9r wait the lag , same issue here

[errant belfry]

Try again. Mine was the same (except for swarm) but when I went back to take a pic it had reset.

[fringe fossil]

This team should be fired. Games are supposed to be fun and this simply is hot garbage.

[prisma gate]

still 400 scrap for 1 latinum. not even going to bother. let the tryhards win their ALB for their scraps

cant get decent rewards for leaderboard events and cant get decent rewards from participating in them

[visual swallow]

'domination - BP event' - spend ship XP not counting towards the event @near saddle nvm it was a huge lag... after 7minutes I got the points

[kind stirrup]

so has ANYONE found success with the vger orions yet?

[alpine niche]

The lag for receiving rewards after completing Trivia tasks is TERRIBLE. I'm still waiting for one to come through...nearly an hour after completing the task. And, others in our alliance experiencing the same thing.

And what is with the numbers out of sequence???

[grave rose]

Every Wednesday I say this either add another Torgoth system or more armadas to Torgoth this is ridiculous

[glossy sleet]

I have that issue too. Only the swarm seems to be stuck or always set to reward 1 lat.

[prisma gate]

its intentional (aka the problem)

[copper oak]

How many events can be activated simultaneously?
Scopely: Yes.

[sullen badger]

These Orion Vger are kicking my butte! I have tried multiple crews and nothing works. <@&509690795536941056> tell Scopely to stop screwing with the hostiles and Do better! This is crap!

[outer dome]

<@&509690795536941056> this is a joke right?

[plucky flare]

So difficulty scaling seems to be a major issue with these new hostiles, some ops ranges have little issues, while many can't come close. Seems scopely is still listening to all the wrong people. This arc should be fairly popular, much like the Wrath of Khan arc, however it's plagued with the same unreasonable event milestones or hostile difficulty. I suppose the logic is "have everything possible at your level maxed or bust out your Mastercard" and even then, it might not work.

[sullen badger]

I filled this out. Take this and jump off a cliff! https://forms.gle/qFmvwiozXvdaireL6

[strong anchor]

All else aside, having ops 69 players facing 40B Vger Orions is way out of balance. We are level locked from building any ship close to that big.

Does that make any sense? It seems most other ops levels are facing Orions about the same size as their ships.

[chrome hill]

Still nothing scoring unless i reboot, everytime

same event as yesterday again i need 77320 hostiles to complete this, that isnt happening

[sacred goblet]

be brave 😂

[chrome hill]

I would need a mod for this farming event

[shell vortex]

Are you gonna ignore the problems today, it's been 2 hours and a bunch of stuff takes 10-40 minutes or more to score <@&509690795536941056>

[ruby garnet]

Gvd even waves don't work! 🤬🤬🤬🤬

Mtfkrt fix this game and listen to the players

[lapis zephyr]

… not sure how but I finished this yesterday with 20 kills 🤷🏻‍♀️

[novel mango]

Typical radio silent scoopley about all the issues.

[vernal breach]

Not having VGer Fighters count in these events is a kick in the ass to everybody who paid for the Excelsior. Add these in or refund us, especially since we can't even complete the epic track now with the VGer Orion debacle, paid ship or not <@&509690795536941056>

[tiny lotus]

https://tenor.com/view/i-see-no-problem-here-crazy-eyes-gif-12788383

[gilded hill]

In the solo event, Avofall protocol, there is a calculation error: 6 waves of solo elite = 1200 points, not 900. Please correct this.

[desert nimbus]

People bought the excelsior in order to maximise what they get out of the challenge track loop, so that they can finish it each week. Now this month you buff the hostiles to such a degree that people cannot complete the challenge track anymore. These hostiles aren't a new feature, they're a direct nerf to people's ability to complete the challenge track, just an elaborate way of doing it. People have spent money on this, no wonder why so many, especially spenders are quitting.

[copper oak]

As I heard, there was NO cooldown yesterday—but there is one today.
You can't change the rules in the middle of an event. This gives players who already had time yesterday and exchanged items a huge advantage.
You guys are really just screwing everything up!

[lilac ocean]

But theres also an unlimited option, where u score 1 latinum per donation, and the costs are doubled like the original donations where (theyre now halfed)

[marsh fjord]

The Xindi event isn't scoring for me yet. Help us by fixing this event and the lag! Was the comp chest for lag supposed to compensate for this lag too?

[near crescent]

Multiple crew used and can’t kill one even crew scopeley suggested. They made the Orion hostile unplayable to a lot of people across multiple servers

[nova walrus]

I can with one crew of the many suggested get 2 pts scored. Don’t would take me 50 trips and deaths to complete the event which is crazy stupid.

[late orchid]

Methinks its time for a 30 day shield and find a new game for awhile...as an ops 69... I want challenging dailies not freaking impossible vger orions

[near crescent]

This is how scopeley losses players

[glossy sleet]

Have they acknowledged this issue that you know of?

[glossy sleet]

I have the same issue with the Swarm donation. No matter what, it's only 1 lat reward.

[mental relic]

Feels like all the new content coming out for Ops 70 players is geared towards late ops 70 and is next to impossible if you don't have a near max epic g6 ship

[prisma gate]

It's not an issue, they made that change intentionally

[hollow lichen]

yeah it's like welcome to ops70 now do events that require you to have a high tier epic ship already. Oh what, you only have your 18B cube, well touch luck...

[glossy sleet]

I think I may have looked at your image wrong. I meant the newly limited one.

[sand lintel]

So, I gotta say that the Avofall event today wants me to do Solo aramdas, and thats all find and dandy, but you limit how many solo armada credits I can have, to basically JUST enough to complete the event when youre MAXxed on tokens, and they have a multi-day cooldown timer.

How are we supposed to (on a moment's notice) come up with the MAX number of solo wave tokens to finish this event (if we can't kill more than 1 elite wave -- because we are just barely in the G5 OPS ranges and need to go the basic solo wave route)..

I Had enough tokens for half the kills (600 points) but wont be able to complete it simply because you are afraid of giving us too many tokens.... 🙁

Please give us extra tokens when you run events like this (like you do when you start Borg events) so we can have a chance at completing the events.

[dull remnant]

Also on that note: the game crashes regularly on start of wave defense. a stability problem you know of and yet you want us to do multiple solo waves? nice...only problem is, that i can't complete the event cause the game crashed AGAIN. 4th time in two weeks that happened.
and now i gotta hope that support is fast enough in responding to my ticket and hope it won't crash again just to be able to finish the event...you're joking, right?!

[elder fern]

Yeah… these vger hostiles have gotten too tough IMO. Heard from an ops 69 in our alliance that a max fort/cerritos buff + good crewing wasn’t enough to get even one kill at his ops level. 😳

As for me, I can kill a couple without buffs at my ops level. I’m hesitant to go up in ops even though I’m fast running out of things to do.

[pine pine]

Bp Event " Enterprise Trivia 5 - SMS " still not counting after doing it, and re starting game multiple times, been well over an hour.

[tacit zephyr]

I just put a one-week shield on the base, and I'll see if anything has changed. If nothing has changed, I'll keep putting shields on. I'll play again when I feel like it, but for now, I have absolutely no desire to play this game.

[golden kiln]

May whomever created this arc cry themselves to sleep tonight and know they did a very bad job. No cake for you

[spring umbra]

This entire ARC is a BOHICA fest for level 69 players... Do better

[dusky mortar]

Events not scoring until 5 minutes later and maybe a restart. DO SOMETHING!

[tacit zephyr]

For Scopely, doing something is doing nothing, therefore, if they are already doing something, laughing at all of us is what they are doing month after month, while asking us to put money, money, money, money, money.💩 🤮 💸 💸 💸

[oak hornet]

Slider needed here. I had enough for 10 bulk refinery button picked something else. Now I can only do one. I should have been able to spend my remaining 300 but now I need to wait until it times out in 22 hours.

[mild glacier]

Solo waves and group waves have been impossible to do for months due to the continuing extreme amounts of lag. Please either fix the lag or stop running events such as waves that run on very short timers.

[austere bay]

get in line, we need sliders elsewhere much more desperately lol

[stone pelican]

I’m hearing that the VGER hostiles are impossible to kill for Ops 69. I’ve managed to kill 2. One with 0% hull and one with 2% hull. The 2% hull one took two tries both with Cheerio boost.
20 different crew tests, ExoComps, fleet commanders, ship boosts, FC boosts absolutely nothing works. Not even close. Complete BS and waste of time. <@&509690795536941056>

[austere bay]

or you may just not used right crew

[oblique lagoon]

If the new VGER Orion hostiles is a thinly veiled attempt to get lvl 69 players to level, it's not going to work. I'm not spending money on something that's not fun.

[spark yarrow]

Telling my G4 alliance mates to stay in G4 where its still fun because G5 is DEAD. there is absolutely nothing fun happening in this godforsaken rank and I wish i could go back. Will probably just end up quitting. It's so boring now.

[plucky flare]

The 70s are even worse and the things that have so far worked on 69s, do not appear to work for the 70s for those that are newer to 70. So yeah, wouldn't recommend going up.

[wet crag]

That solo wave event is such a painful time, with such a cooldown on the ciphers claim and coming just after the waves battlepass im not gonna have enough to do it sigh wish i could convert some of the others LOL

[regal plank]

Before the update with Annorax, Seska, Jane I could kill those v'ger hostiles at my ops level.
Today it doesn't work anymore, my Janeway gives merely 20% iso boost. I replaced her with E- Data ( has a 30%) since Jane has been blacklisted. Stands to reason that I can still do my daily challenge, even better. I can't even take off half of the hostile hull. Shield didn't seem to be a problem, as such I switched Seska to Tucker. It barely got to take off the v'ger hostile almost half hull, before my ship died. So I switched Tucker to Phlox. The result is worse. Now since the update between faction favore, fleet commander skills, artifacts and research I increased hull healt, isolitic damage, critical damage, base weapon damage for the ship. Scopely didn't simply blacklisted an officer, they messed up everything so bad that made it impossible for us to complete the challenge. I repeat i used the same ship that before update could in a few repairs complete all challenge quests. @near saddle

[small egret]

Hi, I just got to 70 and was able to build a couple epics. However, I am nowhere near ready to handle these new Vger hostiles. I get I have to work on things to build them up but it’s frustrating that I bought the Excelsior and now can’t get all the 7 days of dailies. Heck I can’t even get the damage daily today without blowing up my ship dozens of times.

[icy mural]

I’ve been 70 for over 3 months. And I assure you. Not looking good for this arc even months later.

[tacit zephyr]

Scopely has realized that simply adding a new ship and a new building isn't enough to get players to spend money on the game. So, what they're doing is locking everything—ships and officers—to force players to buy the new stuff. And if you don't, you can't participate in events. That's their new policy. So soon, new ship. New building. And we'll be back to square one with different hostiles. It's very simple; that's why they've added so many building slots in the base.

[regal plank]

It has all the ingredients of a policy aiming to make us quit the game. By all means my ship should be able to handle these hostiles, that it could very well handle before the update, simply replacing Janeway with E data. Even with observatory at lvl 11, boost from excelsior, and commander active ability on, leveled up artefacts to increase damage against hostiles, exocomps to boost ship damage and officers, added research to boost damage, and ship health hull, it still can't take off half of the hostile hull.
This isn't to make us spend more money, this is clearly aiming to make us quit altogether.

[tacit zephyr]

He believes the United Arab Emirates has two very important acquisitions underway. One is the purchase of Warner Bros., along with Paramount, provided they win the bidding war against Netflix, which also wants them. The other major acquisition is Electronic Arts. So they have to raise money wherever they can, no matter the cost.

[icy mural]

Spent 400$ on new building. Didn’t make a difference. Spending money won’t help.

[sinful heart]

I wonder if folks are smart enough to realize what’s going on? See the Saudi’s are actually kinda smart here. They KNOW that fossil fuels are a dying industry (too bad Americans can’t get with that program 🤨🙄) and they are positioned to become the “entertainment brokers” to the wealthy.

And unfortunately our beloved hobby has already been highjacked by greedy folks and drew their attention…

Go back to your old games folks, otherwise you’ll be paying “installments” on your fun forever.

[regal plank]

I quit spending money on game and spent it on tignanello instead for quite some time. Recently I bought excelsior, and a battle pass, but do you know what? Spending on tignanello is way more fun.

[icy mural]

You’d think you would rewards spending. Especially someone who would spend 400$ on a dying game. But scopley doesn’t realize what they are doing.

[regal plank]

I already decided to cut off my money flow towards them and direct it somewhere else, for the next few days , after I cool down, I will think if I want to delete the account altogether, take some time off, again, or keep playing without spending a cent from now on.

[sinful heart]

No, I think they know exactly what they are doing.

They are gathering data, lots of it. On our behavioral patterns for spending and playing, and just how much we put up with. (Not to mention our personal data that will sold to third parties either legally or through an “oops” like every other company out there.

Folks really need to quit thinking companies and businesses are anything but high velocity wealth siphons (ie locusts) that do NOT put back anything remotely what they take.

[regal plank]

When they started to overwhelm tv stations with reality shows i thrown away the tv from my home in order to not pay the fee for owning it. It's been decades an no other tv made it's way into my home. 😂 now I have been respectful of their work so I spent money, it's only right, however this update is going beyond greed, is like forcing us not only to spend but to spend exactly on what they want us to. So it's, as it should be a big NO! Let them sell this data! NO, you're NOT taking away our freedom of decision, using these means. And even if you try we can still decide to cut it off.

[swift idol]

Business

[vernal breach]

Ops 69. Cerritos buffed with max research. All but S31 maxed, she's t3. 20th attempt, 20th failure.

This is a daily quest. I can no longer complete the Epic challenge arc i paid a hundred bucks for the Excelsior to be able to do.

Your design team, QA team, and play test team suck. If this isn't fixed and comped I hear Cookie Run Kingdom is fun and free of bugs, and just as stupid as trying to engage y'all on your repeated failures as a customer facing company.

[bright siren]

What was the event that just ended where if your alliance placed in top 10 you received tokens for several items including faction exos. Then you had individual points for WOK Carol shards ect...

[pallid token]

Galactic Rush

[bright siren]

You rock, thank you

[barren latch]

Before the update it was worth doing that farming all the resources and competing against other players and getting big payouts with no cooldown .... you could farm and fight for a few hours and bank everything in I made like almost a million latinum with that ..... 50 rolls ...

And now I just saw that it got heavily nerfed max roll is 25 now and yoi get a 90 min cooldown it kinda made the event now pointless before it was like the American gold digger days you got so much latinum and ship upgrade parts and if lucky officers now it just ehhhh boring,pointless to do because of the low odds...

[sinful heart]

You had me till you went morbid.

It is always better to wish explosive diarrhea;-)

(That’s not a felony)

[chrome hill]

Brillant still not scoring and having to reboot and guess on 118

[sinful heart]

Yeah, well my research isn’t working (I should have 5 hits on that thing). And the phone is heating up so bad doing these I can’t help but wonder how much memory they have leaking 🤨

[civic oak]

Has anyone actually got a shard out of this damn event? Before they added a call it donated a lot then even after.... zero shards

Or are the odds like like 1 in 1000 pulls for a shard

[winged niche]

Why is forcing to complete mission in 2 days time line 😔

[sinful heart]

I love it, they want to say it’s a “service” (the video game industry) model now.

Well as a gamer, I can diffidently say stuff that up your 4th point of contact.

I want a product. Complete and whole.

Because you guys aren’t capable of providing a “service”.

And lord knows you have NO CLUE the value of your said service, but it sure ain’t anywhere near what you charge.
🤨. I agree with the others, you should kinda feel bad.

Though I will say, the memory leaks causing my phone to heat up is keeping my hands warm 😜

[coarse hound]

Congratulations, Scopely and @near saddle ! by adding only one new hostile-type, you screwed up EVERYONE ! as if it was not hard enough to be forced to attack V'ger-hostiles of the same OPS-level for the dailys, these new Orion-V'ger-hostiles are not only overpowered as hell, but all the working and hard gathered crews are turned obsolete by you from the start: SNW, Janeway and Suder, adding the fact that everywhere it's "+crit... +crit....", but crit is fatal against these Orions, making your shields and apex barrier useless, meaning it also counters Suder and Annorax ! Way to go ! It really seems that you learned NOTHING from the Hurak/Flashpoint-debacle, where the enemies were also extremely overpowered !

But even worse now: the Orions are mandatory for the new Challenge-weekly-track, if somebody cannot beat the Orions at all, than the whole progress for the week is ruined ! and these daily/weekly-challenges are highly needed for the mats for the refinery, to get the new ship Excelsior at some time or even more important, the hiiiighly needed additional outpost-directives !!

I heard that many of my alliance were not able to finish the V'ger-task yesterday, so you really messed up a lot with these hostiles ! a compensation in the rewards-track is the least that you have to offer !

and what's still a thing: the ongoing horror-lag and instability of the game resulting in game-crashes currently is making it really a chore to play! I lost not only one of the wave-defenses because of a sudden game-crash/-disconnect - I'm running my PC on a glass-fiber-connection !

So in the name of everyone: STOP NEW (and impossible) CONTENT ! and fix the game-stability FIRST ! We rather have a boring month of gap-filler-borg-events etc. than having to work through such unplayable conditions as it is now the case, with unbalanced hostiles and unfair crew-restrictions !!!

[errant wind]

They won’t stop , the gravy train must continue, someone has invested in this garbage and needs to make profits at any cost , it’s a business 🧑‍💼

I’ll just dramatically reduce my spending , that’s the only way , get rid of FOMO out of your heads guys . This has all been orchestrated at Scopley meetings around the great table

[proven sparrow]

There is 7 Days in the week, they clearly want a different hostile challenge for each day of the week, this is why they sent out that questionnaire asking what crew we used so the next hostile they release can have a block against using that officer

[errant wind]

Smart cookies 🍪

[sinful heart]

Deceitful, miserly, incompetent, incapable, greedy, these are the words you’re looking for, smart would not be the adjective best suited in this situation. 🫡

Those words are all in my head

[brisk crypt]

<@&509690795536941056> XinDeep Event is completely broken. No matter how many Xindi scouts I kill (there's no specification in the Defeat Xindi Hostile info to indicate other hostiles) I don't earn any points towards the event.

<@&509690795536941056> And yes, I have restarted multiple times and cleared localization. Issue persists across multiple platforms (PC, Mobile).

[fluid igloo]

xindeep needs 40+ hostiles

[brisk crypt]

That is not specified anywhere.

[shadow trellis]

Really should update that event description

[brisk crypt]

Nor was that the case prior to hitting ops40.

[fluid igloo]

but you are 40 now? events change and get harder if you ops up :)

[brisk crypt]

yes, I am now ops 40. That said, there is no indication in the event that I need to kill L40 hostiles. Just says Xindi Hostiles...which I have done. I don't have an NX.

[fluid igloo]

as with a lot of things in this game they need a tag like this one to count as it

[shadow trellis]

@near saddle @full swan think it’s time to update the event description on this event to indicate which systems to score and above , as too many new players are trying to use the lvl 34 systems

[gritty fox]

<@&509690795536941056>
So, earlier I did Both of these weapons. 1.7175m for the 1st & 1.1739m for the 2nd 1, right? (Which was Identical to the previous weapon upgrade). What is the total there? 2.8914m yes? Yes, according to Real & Actual Math. Now, look how u guys used new math or w/e to add those 2 #s. 2.35m... NO! STOP USING math that isn't Real!!! Use Real Math & finish this event, that I've already COMPLETED.
Ticket #28236560

[errant belfry]

Mission Briefing SMS gave me the option of 3 mission trees for scoring. I started 2 as the third wasn't available. Completed those 2 and I'm still short the points needed to complete the SMS. So another Scopely failure for lower level players?

[naive viper]

Why is the observatory daily drip not in Claims > Buildings and why do have to pay for it? All previous daily drips have been a free claim.

[novel mango]

Ever since they added the timer to the event for turning resource for the amalgam, etc I have got zero officer shards. Seems we must have been getting to many according to scopes.

Scopley has to be one of the most hard companies around by now for the way they treat their customers.

[simple forge]

LAG LAG LAG LAG.....

[regal plank]

This. Don't spend. And they will act. Keep spending and nothing will ever improve

[next vortex]

Unpopular opinion. New Orion hostiles are good because they offer a challenge not everyone can do immediately. This forces players to think outside the box work together and adapt.

[oak hornet]

I am still attempting to kill my first one still. After I posted here, I did notice that you get points for damage, not kill. It will take me several repairs to get the daily done, but at least there is a drip path to get one of the two dailies done. I am F2P (mostly) so I am use to the slow path but it looked like there was a dead end when I wasn't able to even kill one hostile. (OPS52 w/o G4 epic ship)

[sinful heart]

You’re right. Not a popular opinion, and not one that should be had for a “mobile game”. Especially when that difficulty is manufactured with greedy and ill intent

[elder sleet]

I’m all for a good challenge, for an event. But NOT a daily, dailies should not be this difficult, or take 2 1/2 hours to complete with tons of rss wasted in repairs.

[dark jewel]

I think these guys made a very good point and I wanted to lend my support.

[next vortex]

There have been new hostiles where I couldn't kill one at first but was willing to put in the work to try and figure it out for myself. This was one of them. By the end of my testing I was able to take out 9 68's as an ops 67 who is mostly f2p.

[runic meadow]

Or a reality check.

[runic meadow]

😂😂😂😂😂

[alpine niche]

#💬-events-feedback Spent multiple Battle Exocomps for the Cerritos event and only got half way before it stopped counting my points. Would like the credit for the work I did.

[elder sleet]

Like I said, all for a good challenge, but not for a daily. I would rather see it as an Event.

[fast leaf]

I didn't notice, the new orion hostiles were a challenge - i can kill level 60 hostiles as a level 54 free player without problems - maybe less ops rushing?

[hollow lichen]

Punching up 6 levels, try that again when you're ops 65 or 68/69 and then come back here all smug if you can 😂

[tired cloud]

Trait XP spend scoring is broken. No matter how many trait XP I spend, it only scores ONE point total.

[rigid crown]

Great to see that no scoring once again , yet as free gifts major lag, Dauntless and Kirshara not working properly 😒

https://tenor.com/view/zulupif-pif-gif-18765593

[chrome hill]

Spent 40 mins in territory capture and received zero points!

[lethal pike]

For some time now, your servers have been experiencing massive performance issues (lags, delays in actions, delayed loading of battles and events), especially around event start times and during PvP/Armada activities.

From a technical perspective, there are strong indications of classic under-provisioning of server resources. While this approach may be understandable from a business perspective for cost optimization, from a gameplay perspective it is disastrous and significantly impairs the user experience.

The current server performance results in:

Game actions being delayed or not executed at all

Battles starting or being interrupted unreliably

Competitive imbalances occurring during time-critical events

I therefore request:

A technical review of the server capacity,

A transparent explanation of the cause of the lags,

Concrete measures for the sustainable stabilization of server performance.

Star Trek Fleet Command is a strong game concept, but it's currently suffering from significant infrastructure bottlenecks. In the long run, this will negatively impact both player satisfaction and engagement with the product.

Thank you for forwarding this ticket to the responsible technical team.

[chrome hill]

hostiles are taking 15 to 20 second fights

points not updating, still

21mins for the points for territory to update!!!!

21 hostiles at lvl 40, 233 points each hit is 4893. NOT 1864.

[visual anchor]

Rumor has it a certain blogger was pushing that opinion, and had a big part in creation of the orion hostile. Coincidentally, his blog makes money offering advice on how to think outside the box, work together and adapt. Just a coincidence, I’m sure……..

[upbeat pebble]

Same here.

[wheat summit]

I have the same issue. I dumped about 40,000 trait XP into this, and it did not move the needle.

[sacred sail]

Maybe don't repeat the ops rush nonsense from certain CCs... My t12 krencha has problems at 70 Orion's... 1 per hull and the Sig Trit repairs is not worth it. And I don't buy 100 Euro ships day one and tell other people that they rush ops and don't have all stuff maxed Blabla... Nx01 was 8 months or so behind f2p... A special cc duce would have had a T2 pic Hugh f2p at 63...

[frail trail]

How am I suppose to get to swarm armadas when I can't reach them yet?

[fast leaf]

I dont know about level 70, but the level 60 orion are definitiv doable for me - pure free player and no special crew or any buffs

[shadow trellis]

Good luck then

[sudden kestrel]

You should be able to do up to 68 if you use a Leslie(c), moreau, suder. I was able to test with a T14 cube as relativity only T13 and couldnt reach.

[south maple]

Thank scopley get limited time to play because I work hard and like to relax for an hour at night and the last few weeks just make me want to delete this stupid game....

[austere bay]

no definitive numbers on how much the buffs/debuffs of the hostiles grow each level are out (will probably with time) but if its like the others there sometimes are MASSIVE jumps between the G-ranges. for the new hostiles even the shield mitigation debuff is lower at lower hostile levels.

[lapis zephyr]

Do FKR 🤘🏻

[austere bay]

simple answer: you dont do swarm armadas, ever

[austere bay]

try the no crit fix. turned my t10 krencha from 1 per hull into 30 XD

[visual holly]

try a 61 and post that result

[austere bay]

we gotta wait till sunday for that result ._.

[visual holly]

based on what a 60 told me in my alliance who is in no way rushed he can kill 10-15 60s and exactly one 61

[austere bay]

figures. aligns with what i have heard from lower ops

[vernal breach]

I'm ops 69, have been playing for over 3 years. All of my officers are maxed, my research is nearly complete for my level, my ships are fully kitted out, and my buildings are nearly all complete for my ops level in prep for the move to 70. I cannot kill the Orion hostiles. Come back when you're higher level and tell me how bad I am and how much I rushed.

[silk hill]

highly doubt all ur officers r maxed if u cant kill them

[vernal breach]

You're right. S31 is only t3, level 15. The rest of the Orion crew officers are all at t5 level 30 and my cube tops 18.5b. My error.

[sinful heart]

Dude is ops 69 in three years, he’s a spender (I am “only” 65 and been here from the start minus two months)

And when I stopped spending I was pretty much maxed on my officers.

I’d believe him.

And with how they are screwing things up, I’d say it’s very possible.

[next vortex]

Never heard of them. Those are my own opinions.

[strong lagoon]

The V’Ger cloud is over 10 star systems across. Do we really need an observatory to see it? And why is all Deep Space?

[tacit zephyr]

That's the new way of operating, as they say. Release new ships that no one can destroy, an event that no one can do, and then when the event ends, release a solution. Meanwhile, the typical six players appear, claiming they can do it all without any effort, that it's easy, and that the rest of us can't because we leveled up too fast. Players? Interested whales? Artificial intelligence bots? Who knows?💸 🧛‍♂️

[sinful heart]

Scopy accounts ran by interns.

[simple forge]

We had 50 active players last week, we're down to 30 this week,,, last 2-3 ARCs have killed motivation...

[slate coral]

Eviscerator can open a rip for you, just gotta get someone to do that for you

[nocturne crest]

The claim is events are levelbased yet icannot get enough directives to do rare or epic fkr, cannot reach swarm armadas, and am too low to acquire cutting beam. FIX THE LEVELS!!!!

[sacred sail]

What is the no crit fix?

[sinful heart]

Can someone smarter than me make this make sense?

Because what I am seeing is a whole lot of bloat and bad coding to create a resource hog that uses more resources than Fallout 3 GOTY Ed.

For real Scoply, wdf?

[woven gyro]

It's comically bad RNG, or just broken. I'm at 1.3m points for the event from donations and got ONE shard. I don't remember how many pulls it's been but even at 1% hit rate I should have gotten more than this.

It's like someone said "hey let's flip the broken RNG on the Xindi battleships over to this for a few days".

[quiet gulch]

Anyone else having issues with Recruitment Drive SLB not registering Trait Exp?

[ocean crypt]

if, what you say about the v'ger observatory turns out to be true, then fine,but you always lie, and in the meantime, all lower levels are getting shafted as now orion and gorn are both almost impossible to kill, so who's helping who, your certainly not helping anyone in the short term, and long term means nothing to short term shafting, instead of trying to see months to maybe even years, if thats even possible, try seeing in the short term and stop shafting the players and give some help to now and not to 6 to 12 months or longer down the line, or people will just give up and walk away from the game in droves

[placid fossil]

What they really need is to give us a button that would clear all local data (but not configs), because the only way to recover that space is to delete the app and reinstall, which then tags everything as "new" once you log back in

[austere bay]

Remove the crit chance Fleet commanders and let your ship be stung by a mantis.

[bright totem]

Is 1(one) frequency modulator really the correct amount as a reward?

[molten marlin]

[scenic flint]

<@&509690795536941056> by Grabthar's hammer, why cant Scopely do the bare minimum of telling my how many of these tokens I have?

[chrome hill]

43mins in and still can't see it

[thick temple]

The Scotty's Research arc is very nicely put together. Thank you! 🙂

[fallen verge]

There is no where to spend the event rewards. Were these supposed to be 'Advanced' data cores so we could spend them here?

[chrome hill]

1hr 20mins later and it's still not doing it right, and yes i rebooted twice since

[devout stump]

I’m sure the Scotty’s research would be very useful for this arc if the scoring lag wasn’t now reaching 20 minutes.

[alpine niche]

Nopley doesn't want you to load any other games that might interfere with their revenue stream.

[south maple]

Blah blah blah we are investigating lag blah blah blah

[chrome hill]

I wonder if we could take bets on how long it will take to appear? currently 1hr 53mins and counting

[alpine niche]

Not a good idea. Then, Nopley would enter a bet and manipulate their "work" to win the bet.

[chrome hill]

nicely said, nothing has updated on my end yet for any events

[errant chasm]

What is the source of tickets for Scott's Ticket event?

[thick temple]

Avofall Protocol events have offered common and rare "tickets" as loot for the last few days.

[sullen yew]

Event store

[kind stirrup]

Please be to fix has been like this nearly 2 hours cache clear no effecto 🙁

[sullen yew]

The issue above got me thinking.... is it normal to have this gorn tech event going on after building the evisci? Was built a month ago, now im 50bps into second without trying, whyz 🤌 can it at least be scraped?

[urban violet]

Game is a joke.....only thing scope good at is breaking it

[austere mortar]

lag is making the dailies impossible as every hostile hit causes the ship to get stuck in combat for 1-2 minutes. now put the fact you < really super intelligent people> put excel loop into it, and you got yourselves an absolute 💩show

[fallen verge]

Nope. Those are schematics:

[sullen yew]

My mistake, its in the refinery, resources tab, frank 2.0

[fallen verge]

Nope, those are "Advanced" Data Cores. See my original post

[austere mortar]

brokely has obviously been listening to the bourne soundtrack and made their motto “i broke everything new again, everything that i’d owned”

[sullen yew]

So those seem to be for the og frank...forgot where you cashed those in, was so long ago. Data cores are usualy to be used in event store.

[austere mortar]

<@&509690795536941056> now that europeans are about to go to bed, but can’t collect dailies because of the lag, we are going to get full daily rewards (most important the excel loop rewards), right?!? this is beyond frustrating and downright rage-inducing.

[fallen verge]

Appreciate you trying to help. Would be nice if I could use them on the baby frank.

[pearl crest]

Bugley should maybe fix the stuff already broken before letting new bugs into the game..... This lag and constant game restarts to see if you've scored enough point for events is B/s.....

[dusty yoke]

Seriously, what the hell is going on? It's impossible to play a match in the arena. The points from the two previous arenas aren't counting. Scotty's event isn't registering either, not even after 20 minutes. You've completely ruined the game.

[austere mortar]

gonna take more the duct tape… even spit and bailing wire isn’t going to do much. they might as well be working with stone knives and bear skins.

[spark radish]

That event will give you 200BPs worth then go away (assuming you finish it every week, no idea what happens if you do bits of it here and there).

And more in general, have they even acknowledged tonight's Lag Event anywhere yet?

[urban violet]

Its ok.....I have some blue tac as well 🍻

[austere mortar]

<@&509690795536941056> , please be sure to thank your brokely overlords for a night of horrible lag, dailies not getting credit ESPECIALLY EXCEL, and almost no event scoring. please inform them that como chest MUST include more than a few loyalty tokens as these loops now that are in the dailies also didn’t score. it’s pushing 11pm and there’s no choice but to go to bed. thanks to your lag, a wasted evening.

[urban violet]

What you weren't happy with the 2k rations for the last lag...🤣🤣🤣...games been 💩💩💩💩 fir last few weeks..but each day it comes up with new ways to frustrate...stop tinkering and just fix it

[warped ether]

still nothing working, logged off for about 40mins, before i did, made sure the ticket mining was complete, and the scotty snw/hostile mission, neither have registed after logging back in, so both event tokens/tickets wasted? pathetic.

Dear Scopely,,

I've written a detailed review of all your amazing events.
Unfortunately, due to the ongoing lags, you won't be able to read it until the end of 2028.

Sorry for the inconvenience ❤️

[hazy pine]

Nearly 3 hours since action and still no points showing 🙈

[sullen yew]

That explains it, got last few bps from event store

Saw mention in ingame news, but at the bottom its writen 3d 15h ago

[vivid delta]

Lag is that bad I’ve just received points for the realta race

[empty slate]

Just had a burst of result, someone is working hard with the plunger - bit more needed

[terse harbor]

That was a pretty good event. Frenetic for 10 minutes then wait 4 (?) hours to try to do better. Loved it. You didn't need to spend to compete in it, probably why it only lasted for a short time.

[errant jetty]

is it me or have the Refinery or Armada conversions to Swarm Armadas Tokens no longer slotted into the lvl 42 lot? Was going to do that Swarm Armada Event, but had no tokens to work with, nor the ability to convert anything for them

[spark radish]

I think that might have been the first SLB I won, was fun.

[proven juniper]

Scopely I think you lost a couple zeros in the scoring, or added too many to the requirements.
It only costs 14k to get the mess hall from 58-59, how many levels do you expect people to do for a daily task?
Also you’re once again punishing those of us who already invested in things.

[fading veldt]

I have a alliance member asking how to do this event I have NO clue as I didn't know you could donate this loot can someone please help as Google says you can't

[molten marlin]

it means exchange it in the event store

[fading veldt]

Event store at the top right?

[molten marlin]

there's a box to exchange modulators for some latinum or potential officer shards in the event store

[fading veldt]

Thank you I wish scopley made things a little clearer

[fading veldt]

How can people score more than 400 only been 4 events?

[molten marlin]

the one ams, lower ops events are worth m ore than higher ops

actually looks like they're worth the same now, but apparently they're getting more events that score

[fading veldt]

That's good gives lower players a boost to beat higher players sometimes so this is okay with me

[molten marlin]

sitting at 400 myself and have done all of the events, while there are some of my guys that have scored 1k

[fading veldt]

Same wow that's good

[fading veldt]

I do like events that boost lower players

Ty for your help

[chrome hill]

Question how do i obtain Holo-Field Ampfiles. I'm ops 39 but only have a lvl 7 holo deck. How on earth do i reach lvl32 and obtain them daily?

[hidden glade]

I would like to request a refund for my Excelsior. I was sold a lie. Everytime I log on the goal posts have moved in the Challenge Track. Some little tweak means that if I don't put this tech on , or swap out these FC officers, mitigate enough of this or that then the cost in time and sigma trit makes it less than worthless. I'm so tired of working out how to efficiently do something to have it nerfed or made impossible just because none of you play the actual game or care about nothing but revenue. I know a business is there to make money but you don't have a business without customers.

[sick furnace]

Never buy a speciality ship, complete waste only benefits to complete a poorly rewarded event. You are being conned!

[lapis zephyr]

You should be getting them daily from your gifts tab, you usually have some in TT BP, they are sometimes in some event stores and once you open you mirror refinery you have some there 🖖🏻

[tacit zephyr]

Sopely has been selling nothing but smoke for years. It's good that you players are starting to wake up and realize this..

[fading veldt]

Have we not already done these?

[fast sonnet]

If you haven't, good luck as there is NO sourcing for the starters 🤦‍♂️

[fading veldt]

They seem familiar

How can I check?

[fast sonnet]

No way that I am aware of

[fading veldt]

Okay thanks

[small rover]

Faction Hunt rewards empty?

<@&509690795536941056>

Oh, nice, two arcs in a row of this. Thanks a lot, lol.

[pseudo stump]

Ops 41 rewards for Hunt the Romulans and Hunt the Federation are blank.

[abstract crow]

Urrr

[small rover]

Yup

[tacit zephyr]

Scopely has reduced its rewards so much that there are no rewards left.😱

[upper mango]

Even comps chests subtract stuff from players inventory

[gritty spade]

Jackpot!

[oak crescent]

80 kills is super annoying in systems where the hostiles have limited spawns

(and where everyone else is trying to complete the same event)

[hollow lichen]

BuT iTs HeRoIc BrOoOo
Yeah it's bad event design like most of the recent events are

[solid tangle]

Hostile hunt event without hostiles. Again. Up the spawns in V'ger space already!

[frigid sequoia]

How do I spend this prize?

[copper oak]

Hey <@&509690795536941056>,

I’d like to suggest that you also give smaller players access to either Depot Token events or newer officers - and just stop offering these same old, outdated ones.

There are already plenty of ways to source these ancient officers, but we actually need the new stuff too.
How are we supposed to keep up with the objectives if we’re already being pushed to catch up as fast as possible?

Honestly, this just doesn’t make any sense at all.

Thank you!

[digital flame]

Just wanted to give a thumbs up for the scotty's research event. It's accessible, good rewards, moderately engaging - A nice step up from a lot of other recent events. Now fix all the lag! 😂

[vast goblet]

Another great event, everyone over ops 60 is in the same 2 systems trying to do this event because your hostiles are just too damned stupidly hard for higher ops

[magic pulsar]

Guys

One question

Why is there no longer the official deposit cards event?

@everyone

[tacit zephyr]

What Scotty event? Nothing's showing up for me.

[molten ridge]

Your heavy grind event is plagued with the fact that the hostiles you need to heavily grind aren’t spawning.

[frail skiff]

I think some of my Scotty's Research tokens are missing . I got the 50 from Avofall but seem to be missing those from V'Ger Invasion Heroic - SMS. Didn't get these yesterday either.

[sacred scarab]

spawn rate in vger systems remains horrific, presumably because the summoned hostiles are still pushing the normal ones out

[keen egret]

So there's nothing to spend these on anymore?

[sacred scarab]

ha, hadn't noticed that. dear lord scopely

[keen egret]

I'm starting to wonder if Scopely breaks things intentionally so there are too many things broken for us to notice really bad things.

[lime solar]

No V'ger hostiles in a V'ger system during a kill V'ger hostiles event. <@&509690795536941056> This really needs fixing. There is a SLB going for these right now. Compensation package for this?

[sharp pebble]

In the event store when you go to cash in rewards on things like the Assimilated Stella Shard it would be nice to know how many shards I already have toward the 120 Shards needed to get it . Too many steps to find out if I even have any to begin with .

[haughty citrus]

Events shouldn't be constrained by HOSTILES NOT SPAWNING. Watching dauntlesses cruising back and forth between empty vger spawn points is only amusing for 30 seconds.
FIX THE SPAWN rate of vger hostiles already

zero spawns in the last 3 minutes. Games are supposed to be fun right? did someone miss the memo?

[fickle dirge]

Started with 4.1B and ended with 4.1B... Need something else to spend the modulars on.

[upper mango]

Timer expired at today’s event reset. Hopefully Admiral Recruits 3 with new officers soon.

[opaque hawk]

I don't know its just observation bias, but it seems to me like when i use either kishara or dauntless stuff doesnt respawn right, but if it wait and just attackone mob at a time, they respawn more like normal.

[agile latch]

Timer also expired last week. And started again.

[haughty citrus]

The systems were the vyger ones with 8 or 9 player ships in them, the event requires a fairly large number of kills with a very low spawn rate which is made very much worse by how many people show up to do the event and the spawns just stop

[upper mango]

They probably haven’t finished running the math on which officers would be least helpful to include

[dapper halo]

Vger Orion’s…
You still haven’t fixed these impossible things unless you’re a whale, or have camped at your level for I don’t know, a year or two

C’mon, this is RIDICULOUS

[modern musk]

Yes vger orions at ops 69 is impossible

[upper mango]

At ops 69, use your biggest hull ship (max Rela or Cube T15) with crew of Leslie, Moreau and Chang (or Suder (yes)) with below decks stacked with Wokim, wok Carol, pic Hugh, max Neelix (most important below decks) hull buffs, Paris/wok McCoy. 10 trips and you’re done. No buffs needed. No need to mess with FCs.

[amber grove]

Why is this event like this, you made so many system level but Lvl 51-60 get same amount of point🤨 There literally so many players above ops60 in system Lvl 51💩

[amber grove]

Is that below or above G5 event? Scopely, what is this discrimination🤨

[coral wraith]

@full swan Can you guys reopen the event store you just closed? I wasn’t able to spend my tokens

[chrome hill]

27k of G3 materials to complete?! How's this even possible at lvl39

[leaden spoke]

Killing just one (1!) Orion VGER at OPS69 ist still impossible. No matter which crew setup, no matter which support ships (max Titan, Cerritos, NSEA - or with Mantis trick), no matter which EXOs, no matter which FCs (Lorcas Fist), etc.

[leaden spoke]

Used exactly this and exploded as always with killing only 10% of the enemy

[pliant palm]

well it looks like scopely is keeping the Orion V'ger hostels right where they are ... they are still to OP to beat and if you can do a kill on them you still die ... no boost works to exos work on them ... nothing works on them but what else do i expect when scopely wants us to just shut up and pay up to win

[desert nimbus]

the problem is, people did p2w too, they bought the excelsior because they could complete the challenge track with it, now they made the hostiles so hard, even those who p2w'd can't complete the challenge track

i can kill them, i'm ops 71 with high powered ship for my ops, but i have a lot of alliance mates, who spend, who are considering quitting because of this

because they see it as, even if you spend and play by scopely's rules, what's the point when a month later they will nerf/buff loops to make the loop impossible again

[leaden spoke]

OPS69 is just highly unbalanced - you would need a 70 ship to kill the orion enemies - it seems, other ops levels do not have the same big issues

[fluid igloo]

the 70 ship won't do you much good either, the t16 cube will be better until like t13/14 on the 70

[agile latch]

Vengeance likes Orions 🤭

[pliant palm]

you would need a maxed out 70 ships or a vengeance to beat these, it seems some are saying if you are stung from a mantis it makes it better to kill them but not sure if true

[leaden spoke]

Tried this Mantis thing, was better with it (killed 40% of the enemy instead of only 10%) - but exploded anyway with no points for the daily

[fluid igloo]

you have to leslie cheese, but even that won't work if your research/officers are below a certain level

[leaden spoke]

research is max, officers of leslie crew setup are max except the one or another below (wok)

[dawn rampart]

Great thing about orion vger hostiles, they that hard it makes doing the challenges pointless so 90% of alliance are skipping it.

[austere bay]

If you took off crit chance FC snd stung your ship you wanna run annorax seska s31 georgiou and run pic hugh, wok carol, wok joakim, neelix and harry kim. Not lrslie crew

[deft wren]

How is one supposed to complete the Heroic challenge when no hostiles are spawning?
This is after 2 restarts and several refreshes btw

[leaden spoke]

Tried every possible crews incl. this 🙁

[austere bay]

Makes no sense that you cant kill em unless you severly rushed ops and skipped on ships and officers😅

[leaden spoke]

every ops69 player i know has the same problems - my research is maxed to what is possible until ops69, got the tier15 cube, maxxed officers where possible, etc.

[austere bay]

No lorca no khan, mantis debuff.

[leaden spoke]

looks like this with my cube and your crew setup and mantis sting

[austere bay]

What you got below and what tier are the officers

[leaden spoke]

Kim (max), Neelix (max), STP Hugh (15), WoK Joachim (max), Torres (max), Borg Hugh (max)

[austere bay]

Why would you run borg hugh. The point is to NOT crit

[leaden spoke]

which level is your building and are you using excelsior?

[austere bay]

No buffs

[leaden spoke]

i can exhange borg hugh for wok carol, but already did this severeal times and it did not helped

[austere bay]

You tried that while having no crit FC and mantis sting? And what lv are seska and annorax.

[leaden spoke]

what do you mean with crit fc? and yes, i had the mantis sting on my ship - seska 20, annorax 15

[austere bay]

Removing lorca and khan as they give you crit chance in combat. Point is you do not want to crit at all

[leaden spoke]

which fcs then, can add up to 4

[austere bay]

No matter who you use as long as FC khan and Lorca are not seated

[leaden spoke]

now it works - so the FCs were it

[austere bay]

Yep. Thats what i ve been saying since the start. To take them off 🤣

[leaden spoke]

So for all with problems with the Orion VGER:

Annorax, Seska, S31 Georgiou - BD WoK Joachim, WoK Carol, STP Hugh, Harry Kim, Neelix, Belanna Torres (no officers with critical)
Lorca and Khan away from FC seats
let someone sting you with Mantis and it works

[austere bay]

Neelix can also help a lot. Also if you use battleship he is extra hull repair

[copper basin]

tested and proved, thanks

[copper basin]

interesting that the rot takes less damage

[austere bay]

i got suder on it for 95% (cap) hull repair. i just burn them to death with it.

[tacit zephyr]

What you're saying doesn't make sense to me. Maybe it only works for you.

[ocean crypt]

you should not be adding kremin or borg type 03 armadas to a event without giving out dirs, no one wants to pay to play, they only want free-to-play

[copper basin]

we tested with several people in the alliance now, and it all worked.

Did you follow the advice to the letter?

• Drop FC Khan and FC Lorca to remove all crit
• place a Disco where you need to go later
• let someone Mantis sting your warship
• call the ship with disco

[tacit zephyr]

ship with disco?

[leaden spoke]

you can call your ships with the Discovery into the system, where the Disco is

[tacit zephyr]

After all that, it's impossible for me. First of all, my Discovery doesn't go that far. God, this seems more like a satanic ritual than a spaceship game. And then you'll have to tell me that while I'm doing all that, I have to make a Valencian paella.🤣

[vast lily]

<@&509691205798592532> any chance of adding a scoring mechanism to today’s Avofall event other than Krenim or Borg Type 03, I have no directives for either!

[tacit zephyr]

The worst part is that they only give you 50 Scotty research points. When you need at least 100. Completely useless.

[strong anchor]

Avofall Protocol isn’t scoring Borg Type solos

[austere bay]

if you did every event you by now (with todays) should be able to do all of scotty resreach events.

[crimson aurora]

Areyou doing the right ones?

[rancid blaze]

Can't move. Get this message. Even after restart.

[stable bronze]

normally there is brackets for the pvp event and separate system.. why wasnt it done this time.. i dont really wanna complain but i dont feel like getting popped every time i send a ship in one of the 3 systems by someone 15 lvls higher than me

[fierce yew]

Doesnt work with my ship

[vernal breach]

I'm not doing that for a daily. That's a heroic level work and only if it has good rewards.

It's also a sign that it's completely stupidly untuned and overpowered.

Assuming somebody will come along and tell me that I need to just deal with it. However, broken mechanics are broken.

[fierce yew]

Yes they kicked the "easy" hostiles for this stupid stuff. Every arc this game sucks more and more

[austere bay]

You really did everything as listed?

[fierce yew]

Yes

[austere bay]

So no Fleet Commander Lorca, no FC Khan, no borg hugh and stung by mantis? I ask because i ve had it like 10 times today alone that people forgot something and were wondering why it doesnt work

[fierce yew]

Ah forget mantis but this isnt posible for me. My disc is warp 550

[austere bay]

How about asking a mate to sting you in the 71 system? Eviscerator can reach there

[tacit zephyr]

You have to do a belly dance, facing the sun in your underwear. And if that doesn't work, make a sacrifice to Scopely. I don't know, break your mouse or keyboard. Sacrifice them, in the name of Scopely. Maybe that will work.💃 🧙‍♂️

[austere bay]

Or just take literally 5 minutes to crew, remove FCs, sting your ship and kill the hostiles. But hey, if facing the sun works for you thats fine.

[sinful heart]

That is rewarding their bad coding/customer service/jerking our chain.

Instead, slowly ignore them 😉

[thorny hound]

<@&509690795536941056> I hate to feel like I'm that guy that just piles on but I just ran my krenim solos two days ago and I don't have a revenant. So this avofall event complete impossible for me to do. I'm not sure that's a great design.

[tacit zephyr]

Don't be offended, it was simply an ironic comment from someone experiencing a lot of frustration, trying to cope with it through humor. It's nothing against you.🥹

[austere bay]

No offense taken 🤣 looking at the sun at least works in regards of not spending time on this game lol. That could solve so much frustration we got because of this gamd

[neat condor]

I just thought I'd say that I liked the Scotty's Research event series and design. A diverse set of events, reasonable amount of time to complete, able to be done without paying, good rewards, just all around very well done and I'd love to see more

[warm kestrel]

not for me, thanks. I've only completed 2 milestones. the grind you needed to do to get the currency you needed so you could then do this event was too much. I would like zero more of this

[austere bay]

Lol the grind was literally nothing. Doing fkr daily is more grindy

[austere bay]

And the research slb you could literally do all of them at the same time if you took an interceptor with snw crew hunting federation hostiles with torres below (dont think i missed one). The rest was like mining crystal

[warm kestrel]

my daily fkr is 5 ships. if it was less grindy than that then I missed a memo. I figured there'd be a pay element required to finish it so I didn't bother worrying about it. it's fine, I've cured my fomo and grown quite accustomed to skipping events in this game

[inland matrix]

When will we get refits like the Cardassian Disruptor in the event store. This was already available on the end of arc store, many players have partial unlocks

[austere bay]

Its a pain the higher ops you are. At ops 70 with no ship to punch into g7 it takes some time

[orchid sundial]

As a fresh 70 my level Orion is impossible. I've tried over 30 different crews/ship combos. Not a single solitary kill.

[austere bay]

Remove all crit chance in Fleet commanders and sting your ship with a mantis

[neat condor]

which ones, specifically, did you think were too grindy? I agree that more information up front would have been better, as it wasn't clear until yesterday that all the research could be done free, but now that we know it lets me hope for another run next week

[warm kestrel]

those were fine, getting the currency needed to run the events is what I didn't engage with

[neat condor]

except for it not being initially obvious that they were the source of the common research tickets, I thought all the avofall sms were fine. And they had their own meta so I would have done them anyway. Maybe the solo wave defense one was a bit much if you couldn't do the elite g5 solo. And the heroics were certainly more grindy, but also two day events so there was a lot of time to do them

[regal plank]

Make sense of this. And I refreshed, and cleaned loc.

[simple forge]

It's all become a spend trap. Change FT, CT an FCs everyday,,, you can't get enough rods from any or all the sources put together, so you're going to have to spend. Spending's over, there's a difference between spending to make it faster, or easier and being forced to spend to complete IMO, and if I can't complete it without spending willfully then why spend at all. I remember when 1 pack bought an officer you needed, now it's 4-5 if they even offer a good one, or by the time they do offer it's already obsolete or the ARC is over. Imagine how many players would spend 1 pack to be able to complete an ARC than being forced to spend a grand to complete an ARC. It's only a game, it's not a house or a car...

[ocean crypt]

surges and access fault charts, such an ill-concieved idea, only 2 charts max, yet surges can be up to a dozen depending on how many ops 71+ players there are in the alliance, so how can all the alliance players help these ops 71+ players with their surges when can only access it once with 2 ships, as these 2 ships use up the fault charts and no more access available, definetly no thought went into this whatsoever, no matter what you say, no thought went into this whatsoever, just like every other idea you brought out into this game, ill-concieved and not thought out at all, sack your brains and go buy new ones, you certainly have the cash to afford new ones for everyone that works for this thieving company

[orchid sundial]

@austere bay Tried that crew on numerous ships (Tier 9 Krencha, Tier 16 Cube, Tier 15 Relativity, Tier 3 Ent-E Running Agony Booth tier 50, and 350% damamge for each ship I was running) Have also tried every crew listed by Rev, Lewb, and many others. Non have done more than take 1/10th of the enemies health.

[orchid sundial]

even used this to no avail.

[austere bay]

you really did everything? (remove khan and lorca FC and sting your ship with a mantis) also no buff (cerri, titan) and no borg hugh below

[orchid sundial]

only forgot Lorca .. didn't think about him

[austere bay]

there is your problem probably. he gives 20% crit chance on round starts. even a handfull of crits gut your shield mitigation

[orchid sundial]

guess I'll try removing him on Wednesday

[austere bay]

because with that tactic and something like Pike euradice annorax even g5 epics can kill the 70s

[pseudo stump]

The challenge track is missing the V'gers title unlock token. I can't be sure, but I think it was missing last week also. I currently only have 4 but have completed up to milestone 7 each week since release. Which is 5 weeks so far, today being the sixth week.

[shadow trellis]

I only have 4 and I’m sure I haven’t missed any

[small matrix]

You need to do all the relevant research available to your OPS level, and faction favors, artifacts, officer levels, ship level, FTs and CTs. At least that helped me to kill one VGer Orion with one run. Maybe after upgrading your Enterprise E to maximum you will be able killing them again.

[austere bay]

Or use other tactic

[craggy girder]

When we do these we coordinate a time and then once someone starts a surgery we stay there. Then those that can start them can start as many as they like and we just had to pay the one time cost.

[ocean crypt]

it's more for the smaller guys and ships, when they die they can't return to surges

[small rover]

Soooooooooooo many events for 20-50 today.....

[austere bay]

<@&509690795536941056> amy chance to add new shipparts/building stuff/prime particles/ chaos tech/ refits to ferengi event store? At this point there is nothing to get besides some overpriced officer shards or trickles of ressources.

[small rover]

RIP to D'Chok in Ferengi Store

[austere bay]

Also FOR THE LOVE OF GOD make ferenghi store currency the same each month. There is no reasob it has different one each time

[buoyant socket]

Ferengi shop need a uptade for sur (commander sisko, uss vengeance bps, new refits, ...)

[tacit zephyr]

Simple so you don't accumulate those amounts you usually have left over. And they're not enough to even buy anything from the store, they're stingy about that.💸

[quasi flare]

<@&509690795536941056> what happened to the Observation Relay event store? I paid for this currency and would like to be able to spend it.

[austere bay]

Great, so i cant accumulate my 30ish currency each time to maybe buy sometjing in 10 years

[hollow lichen]

Now you get to pick from 4 officers you can't afford to tier up with the special currency (and 2 are cheap sourcing from outpost stuff we do get enough off) and 1 snw officer you never use. Glorious ferengi update for sure

[small rover]

🤦‍♀️

Can't even do Outposts at 30, anyway, lol. Sigh. Was hoping to be able to get more tiers of D'Chok sourced

[pseudo stag]

Epic G6 are the wrong choice due to improper firing pattern.

[nocturne crest]

Why does Maco target practice say swarm and Xindi in Delphic Expanse yet Xindi dont add points?

[austere bay]

Its about time transogen forge materials are added to ferenghi store if we cant have flashpoint back....

[tacit zephyr]

As always, nothing is scoring points. And as always, silence from Scopely. I still say the same thing, I have never seen a company as anti-consumer as Scopely. Impressive.💩 🚽 🧻

[obsidian ether]

very cool BP event for ops below 51

[raven zephyr]

Seriously a battlepass event requiring spending materials on the station.. How the h*ll are you supposed to do that when no building uses materials at level 50?

[mellow fjord]

Honestly please update the Ferengi Store. Reliant, Squall, Dauntless, Transogen Forge, Recon Locus, a few Primes like Hullbreach Resiliance or something similar. Please put something new in it.

Ferengi pass always had good value but since there are no good rare officers or new Additions its plain useless and not worth the money.

[coral wraith]

@full swan Our lower Ops level guys are showing up with new dog avatars and stuff. We need some solid cosmetic prizes for 51+

[tropic mountain]

Is the borg cube meant to be last months currency while every other shipBP is this months currency

[molten marlin]

probably not, will raise it

[regal plank]

I still didn't get my event points, nor did I get an answer, beyond the ai generated one, from scopely

[tender niche]

So how do I get Challenge credits to buy the Excesior if I can't scratch any V'ger ship at my ops level?

[fervent panther]

$599.99

[prisma gate]

really? "swarm and xindi" ?

[late orchid]

So vger enemies didn't cycle? Congrats scopley for another failure

[craggy girder]

Event says Gorn, but hostiles aren’t Gorn. Given what the original post says I’m guessing that is the issue. Argh 😡

[lost phoenix]

<@&509690795536941056> "gorn hostile" daily for iso damage not scoring

[rough ravine]

That's because they are still Hurak hostiles in V'ger space. Get your stuff together, Scopely!

[craggy girder]

I guess I’ll go attack more for the heroic event, even though it’s not scoring for the daily. Like we don’t have enough time sink bugs without more things that keep breaking and cause us more work.

[sand geyser]

Someone forgot to flip the vger switch.

[jagged current]

https://tenor.com/view/baby-one-more-time-britney-spears-gif-1874225940573415150

[wise shore]

This specific event, Heavy Hitter, simply does not respect the player's time.

At least could've been FRK hostiles.

[prisma gate]

im in 1st in my server... but man it would not be fair to other players my ops lvl if it allowed freebooters or xindi lmao

[shell vortex]

<@&509690795536941056> uh, what's the plan for the daily that you didnt switch. It's doing hurak still so we can't collect the gorn daily to collect the loot etc etc. does left hand and right hand....uh did scope have stroke? Communication 0/5... Stability 0/5, etc etc. Are you proud of your work product this month?

[wheat walrus]

ummmmm Gorn? Still have Hurak V'Ger hostiles.... cant complete the daily or challenge.......

[smoky rose]

Optimistic of you to think Scopely might respect us - it's only the contents of our wallets they're interested in.

[chrome hill]

4 new buildings started an zero points given out!

[tacit zephyr]

Just this month? I'd say it's been like this for the last few years. And as for them feeling proud, for that you need to have pride, and I think that's what they have the least of. They're shameless, yes. But I don't think they're proud, and they lack professionalism too.💩

[chrome hill]

this is worth 46280 points g4common @ 40 x 1157. so explain

[shell vortex]

Agreed but specifically, they screwed up today as the vger hostile didn't switch to gorn but the daily needs gorn to score...

[hollow wigeon]

<@&509690795536941056> Spawns in V'Ger space seem to be gone ... should be Gorn today but still Hurak there from yesterday.

[tacit zephyr]

It's your fault. You scared them. Now they've hidden and don't want to come out.🤣

Why doesn’t the ISO damage score at all for the daily?

[sharp thistle]

Because you need to kill Gorn, not Hurak. And scopely haven't changed the hostiles 🤣

[sharp iris]

Gorn Surgical broken, (easy task 100 points) not scoring not 1 point, and done a ton of isolytic damage, <@&509690795536941056>

<@&509690795536941056> Your spawning Hurack instead of Gorn, sort your poo out

[pearl crest]

Great job scopley..... you can't even get the right hostiles to match the daily challenge, yet allow me to score points for one yet not the other

[errant wind]

We have a fix for that , staff on the turps

[slender narwhal]

They did switch just to the wrong one

[regal plank]

I thought I was the only one not scoring in the daily . This game is breaking under our eyes. <@&509691205798592532>

Add to it that my Scotty's research still didn't register the fulfilment of all single tickets events. And the ticket hasn't been resolved, nor has anyone been in contact 30 hours after opening it.

[loud fossil]

Doesn't look any significant changes of the Orion hostiles' difficulty are on the cards. Great. I guess I'll just refuse to engage them forever...

[sinful heart]

See, this whole challenge track is what is called an “unforced error”. Or tripping or your, eh hum, yeah.

This is beyond stupidity at this point.

This is doubling down on stupid.

But as long as folks reward them….

[tidal rampart]

please lift the maintenance right now

[midnight walrus]

@regal plank my scotty ticket events registered all fullfillment

[regal plank]

Ad you can see

The heroic didn't

[midnight walrus]

everything is down for now, just read the sms again, should be able to finish it

[pearl crest]

Great job again Scopley... 2 hrs maintenance and we now have the right hostiles for daily challenge.... Can you now fix the fact that they are not giving points towards dailies or events.... really this is incompetence at the highest level

[copper shadow]

man I really need to change to a job that keeps me employed no matter how many times I mess up like scopley things would be better if every job was more like scopley cause then no one would care right.

[vestal jewel]

as before,it counts nothing,hostiles,resourses,,,,

[wise shore]

So... are we getting an extension on MACO events with this?
"Heavy Hitter" is taking a while, and the maintenance doesn't help.

[pearl crest]

Points to vger dailies and event tallied on after 30mins

[sinful heart]

Another broken update…dailies not scoring, (yes, I did/do the “things”, step off)

So yeah, keep up the good work. 🤨🙄.

Fix the darn game.

[elder sleet]

<@&509690795536941056> anyway they can speed up the VGER respawn rates?

[finite hare]

Yesterday, I was 3rd in the Rsld, now I'm 20th. And everyone has the same points : 4200. How is this scoring calculated? According to spending?

[hollow lichen]

https://klipy.com/gifs/spongebob-magic-1

[dark horizon]

wow, I didn't even notice this, I went through combat logs over and over wondering why the heck i'm not scoring in the event

[carmine delta]

The release notes say teh V’Ger hostile difficulty was adjusted so it would be possible to do dailies. This is NOT true. ZERO change in logs, and still can’t kill even one at my level with recommended crews/BD. Ops 67, T9 Titan or T15 Cube. THIS IS RIDICULOUS

[copper oak]

<@&509690795536941056> Hey, quick question for a friend:
How does the reward thing work in this event if, like right now, more than 100 players end up with the exact same score? You don't seriously think that someone with the same points as the guy in 1st place, but in 67th, is gonna walk away empty-handed, right? 😉

[karmic sky]

In the past, tiebreakers on these type of events used to based on who did it last.
If i did my score at start of event, and you got same score 1 sec before event ended you end up higher then me. All those players that did it first are prob the ones bumped down .

[late orchid]

You want to make some of these events viable again? Like lat rush? Add g6 and g7 rewards into them. Its not hard...

[small rover]

Yay, more events overload back to back days.... Thought y'all were gonna reduce the grinds for us folks. lol

[gloomy edge]

<@&509690795536941056>

And now that the 1st "MACO" round with the swarms is done, time for a proper call out, dear Devs.

You, succeeded , in adding hurt to insult. Well done... big applause.

Not only, did you hand out Franklin-A 's a little while back, as an excuse and a "cover-up-sort-of" attempt for YOUR mistakes,

Insulting the rest of us who have put in the endless HOURS and effort in grinding the original Franklin through the tiers,

You went about, and launched an event, with swarm... doubling down on your MISTAKES. GOOD JOB!

Once AGAIN you dropped the ball , once AGAIN you are destroying the game Dear Devs.

Since past November , you are on a roll, never missing up on an opportunity to insult us, in the very least. Keep up the good work!

[small rover]

Just did - oh, scoring lag happening again. Was gonna say I just did an FT upgrade and nada happened

[tardy hawk]

Is MACO Bellhoper - SMS possible for most players? With the the daily claim, you'll only be able to do about 1/3 of the SMS. Unless my math is wrong.

[full swan]

Still bad?

[edgy bison]

Where did the treasury go? It still had a day left! 😡

[candid crow]

I think the maco for today is not right to the level at list in 28

[small rover]

S'fine now, yeah

[small rover]

Not if ya've been doing ya Trials every day.... Ya need about 11 trials to complete the SMS all the way to Heroic extra

If ya don't have a surplus, lucky to get a fiver every 10 days from the daily sourcing

[tardy hawk]

There is a max capacity of 75 bells so it's hard to build up a stockpile. It's too bad.

[small rover]

Been getting my surplus from a T1 Ferengi Whip I got from Tourney Store, so there's that.... Else, ya're out of luck on completing that event.

So, yeah, not really able to complete it without serious hoarding prior to event today

[solemn coyote]

Was it maxed? If yes, you have 3 days to redeem it

[small rover]

And then we have the event for speed ups.... Gotta blow up a lot of ships, lmao

[visual holly]

there is a player in my alliance that isnt getting rewards and after reset today got 300 points from an event they did yesterday afternoon when it came through as complete. everything else they did yesterday and today so far hasn't registered
to clarify they are seeing pop up banners registering score but no completed events are paying out rewards except one that paid out after an extreme delay

[tardy hawk]

Turns out if you teir up some (all?) forbidden tech, you get 1 time claims that contain bells. It's a good way to get more bells in a pinch.

[full swan]

Can you have them ping support. They need to take a look and see what's going on.

[small rover]

Honestly, 26k minutes of repairing or construction/research speed ups....

[visual holly]

they did already - just wanting it known in case it's more widespread thanks!

[sinful heart]

They do not care. They NEVER have. And they have never (to my memory) ever truly addressed or acknowledged the issue.

Their philosophy seems to be “you take what we give you and you like it, or &@%# off”

We aren’t people, we are pixels to them 😉

[cold junco]

Still no news on the compensation chest after all this 💩 we have had to endure

[maiden ridge]

I love how they introduce this gauntlet style of events, then remove hours to complete with maintenance for the 1st day, then cant keep the game running the second. Maybe stop doing new things for a while and fix the plethora of bugs.

[ashen notch]

I dont know how they can comp us adequately for 18 months of this garbage.

[cold junco]

A few redundancies in their so called IT department would be a help 😂

[austere bay]

Bold of you to assume the game is running after maintenance

[small rover]

Kinda hard to finish Speed Up spending SMS if servers are not able to be logged into

🙃

[south maple]

Like I said the other night a lot of us get limited time in a evening to play. Due to actually working hard then we need to put up with this nonsense... So close to deleting

[tacit zephyr]

I think this game has grown tired of us all. It doesn't like us anymore.🤣

[small rover]

Can we reduce the reqs for this event in the face of AWS issues? lol

[undone field]

Are we there yet.

It's it fixed yet

[maiden ridge]

I say, go a YEAR without new content. Take that time to improve the stability and fix the bugs. I am sure im not the only one that would be happier in thst regard.
Sure, its nice seeing new content. Shows the game is still growing. But the lack of concern about the endless bugs, some of which have gone on so long we consider them features (ie. Warp trick), is showing a lack of care. I would gladly dump money into the game again (which i haven't in a long time) if it didnt feel like the game might become unplayable at any second.

[alpine niche]

It's not fixed. I came back and was kicked out. I relanced the game launcher & no luck.

[ashen notch]

A year is excessive, and would definitely kill what little interest the game still has even more than the bugs do. My alternative is to stop doing new arcs every month. They should do one month on, one month off. Use the off months to correct issues, especially the ones players have had problems with for years.

In addition, for at least a little while, arcs should be focused on revitalizing older content rather than adding more useless bloat to the game.

[junior pond]

Scoring for this is really problematic since it relies on directives that feed at a drip. In past events, there was a trial bells gift to address this, but that's noticeably absent this time. SMS events need to be structured to be completeable.

[modest echo]

If the useless experience I have had for the past 4 days with support is anything to go by I would actually believe it entirely if Amazon came out and said today's issues and the major AWS outage from a while back were both caused by STFC

[modest echo]

They won't, they're probably playing half it and pass it on to the next person until someone eventually goes deploy it
