Put three 24h SLB one after another. Seriously, no one should have to farm 3 days non-stop for any reward of any kind

ionic briar
The duration too, you can’t put 3 days farming event, you can actually make people sick from that
@lavish patrol Totally agree... been nauseous and shaky since yesterday night 😅
lavish patrol
@winged axle see? Sorry for pinging you but this it’s important, I suggest you mention it would be better to stop 3 day farming SLB for health reasons.
winged axle
I doubt I have that much influence on Devs😅
lavish patrol
Ok, was worth to try
winged axle
I will suggest in my feedback but cant promise anything as usual
lavish patrol
Ok thanks

I'm overall happy with data mining, but it would be about 100x more awesome if you got points for stolen data
grizzled idol
@fading ocean it was at the beginning of May with that PVP event but it only offered a max of 25 bp. I still need 10 more.
toxic wraith
@winged axle so if everyone should be on 125200 please explain how after doing every single event am at this
So I completed all events yet got less than the norm, but som9ne who bought 1 elite pack, has somehow fully completed...
If 125200 is norm then some of us must have lost a full day's events. Taken off us.. After we completed the rewards, and not had a 2nd bite.
Yet other must have had triple points. So can you take my points I've lost off them and give them back, cos you took them off me gave them to some random.
Not missed any event.. Done both swarm events..
It's not even consistent across the board... Everyone has different target milestones, and different points..
Yet this event is supposed to be same for all.
Even the Borg arc everyone had same points totals to reach per milestone.
Now if what is happening is those that completed the events, and it's subsequently reset, those that completed do not gain the points but lose them.
Those had partial actually lose partial points.
Yet those offline get full points.
So by being online at reset. Players are losing milestone battle pass points.
This is only way that makes any sense.
So in effect with 2 buggy days, I have and others online at the time have lost 2 full days points.
Whereas those not online haven't.
And those partially completed have partially lost out.
But doesn't explain how others have completed all milestones.
tawdry knot
Not sure if anyone else has seen this, not going to bother to look because I'm that annoyed. BB in Yarda, 360k capacity. hit about 100k fill, and each progressive load after is worth zero. counts up, then dropps like nothing mined.
iron violet
Please stop with the data mining events. Or at least lower the requirements of data needed. The lower nodes make this event too painful and dull. Moving every 8 secs is tedious work.
vagrant summit
this has probably been answered, but I haven't been able to find it.. is there anything we can do to spend the borg war funds that we have left over?
old quarry
@vagrant summit No, they'll be wiped before the next Borg event.
vagrant summit
not cool
old quarry
People were advised to spend them, or as much as they could.
vagrant summit
I didn't hear about that
old quarry
All Borg points, funds, tokens etc will be wiped if the Borg event is ever re-run
vagrant summit
guess that is my bad
old quarry
You're always advised to spend them, when Scopely is involved
vagrant summit
had no idea... oh well
old quarry
Yeah, people quickly learn that last month after the fiasco with Borg resource chests at the end of the arc
vagrant summit
what was the scopely response?? tough?
plush hedge
live target practice is fun, but I don't like needing to relocate so that I can warp my tiny ship over the the designated system
lethal jasper
Just wanted to say, very fun events lately. I don’t care if people don’t like Data mining, I had fun.
ionic flame
Once again, if you are going to include a ship in an event that can only be bought then please include the blueprints in the store for those that dont have one
Latinum Rush? D'Vor goes on sale
Data Mining? Here is a few nice Botany Bay offers
PvP with a Jellyfish? Sorry cant help you there
bronze bough
Reference the PVP Event: Live Target Practice I.
If a ship that can only be purchased is allowed in an event then allow the event to take place everywhere. Allow those that did not purchase said ship pick their own battlefields instead of wasting time and resources entering a system to immediately lose to an overpowered (when participating ships are pre-determined), purchase to win ship.
Let the Jellyfish owners hunt to their heart's content for acceptable targets. Let the rest waste less time, relocate bases, etc by opening the playing field.
wild nebula
PvP event: Live Target Practice 1 - why are Scopely persisting with this crap? When you reach ops29/30 - you well into the realm of faction ships. The player could have at least 2 faction ships - I have a 26 and 28 faction ship. So why are you not letting us play our toys? Let us test our ships against similarly ranked players. We don't want to play with phindra, talla or baby jellyfish. Our progress through the ranks, has been about getting the faction ships. Stop with the crap, and produce a meaningful event.
ionic flame
@wild nebula if they fixed target practice 2 then I assume the intention is to scale the event up every day until you reach the max event for your level
stone tiger
Remove the jellyfish from the regular player bracket
plush hedge
PVP events with small ships evens the playing field a bit, and gives people a chance for low cost pvp exposure. It's easy to see why they do it, and as a player I'm very happy to see it. (even though I still don't have a jelly fish)
stone tiger
I was screenrecording to send it to a group of friends, but I deleted it. A bunch of jellyfish were waiting near the entrance so everything coming in died. Nobody will want to play a pay to win game with pay to win events. I deleted the recording and am not sending it to our gaming group…
plush hedge
Pro tip - don't fly in at the default entrance - choose a warp in on the side
wild nebula
@stone tiger please go and work at Scopely to impart your wisdom on their staff
true merlin
Stupid jellies are over powered..... if you want to force this PvP nonsense on us then the event store MUST sell Jelly bps for ALL levels!
stone tiger
@wild nebula I'm open for good job offers, logic predicts they have the money. 💰
obsidian jolt
We can’t complete the pvp event on server 39, because there I only 50 active people and we are all in one alliance.... SERVER MERGES scopely
wild nebula
I don't mind most of the events Scopely run. The mining events - the swarm - domination - they are good events. However, Some of the events are utter trash - Live Target Practice is just one
languid marlin
....this does not seem right or fair. I am in a leaderboard (ops 30) in the same bracket as ops 39 for Mudd.
languid marlin
Might be intended, but I do not think it is right.
winged axle
It is an auction event. $$ over fairness
languid marlin
Meh, getting tired of scopely putting money over fairness in the game...
limpid notch
Jelly fish should not be included into the live target practice event. It is far to powerful for talla or phindra to fight against. It should be turas instead that way everyone has a fair chance and the only advantage would be your officer selection, the tier level, upgrades and ship xp. This event is very discouraging when you know you will have to complete this event one point at a time. Most don't even participate because of this.
winged axle
I cant blame them. People keep spending so they dont change it. Why change something that works perfectly
In May our top guys were around 8m points
languid marlin
...because it is the right thing to do? I know...I know.......
winged axle
😂
languid marlin
This is a fun enough game, and plenty of room for profit if they focus more on fun and fairness instead of predatory packs.
wintry schooner
I have been negative about a number of issues in this game of late, I think with good reason. However, I want to say thank you for the latest 2* PvP game. It seems that the team listened and this is genuinely really fun! Good job
winged axle
We had it during Borg Arc 4 as well for 3 days
Each day with different ships.
First day-> 2g
Sec day-> 3g common
3rd day-> 3g fac ships
languid marlin
And day 3 was kill anything, anywhere, using a faction ship.
winged axle
Yeah that was a bit chaotic 😅
languid marlin
Eh, day 2 was chaotic. Day 3 was just hole up and get your neighbor to put out realtas. (2 because it bugged, did not work, was taken down, and then everyone was gifted the rewards)
obsidian jolt
@ionic flame we considered it but then only half of the alliance would get rewards, due to the way scopely does events
vagrant topaz
Pvp event would be better if they would put out the jelly bps to buy for players that are over lvl 20 that havent got a finished jelly
stone tiger
If someone takes a kehra and shoots all my pvp ships, do I still get the "lose, 1 point" point?
Wasn't day 3 with vahks, kumis and tier 1 faction ships? @winged axle
Pretty sure day 2 was also 2g because of that bug
oblique adder
Pvp event is stupid hey let's put a jelly in with 2 star common ships even tho its stats are way op for this event scopely use only common ships for pvp to make it actually fun for ppl who don't have jelly
The ppl with jellies don't even attack each other on my server they just sit there and wait for all the non jellies to enter system and all attack the non jelly ships
modest quarry
I think this pvp event is bull not everyone had the money to BUY there jellyfish and those of us that don’t have one get screwed over by those who do at least with the other pvp events they were more fair. If you put the hard work in you could have a higher lvl ship but not in the pvp part 1 event that’s slated for those that have money. Once again the rich and powerful walk all over the rest of us that live paycheck to paycheck.
open otter
@oblique adder similar story here, unless the jellyfish is really weak
wintry schooner
I’m sorry guys but the negativity at what is a very accessible PvP event is misguided imo. The cost bot in RSS and speed ups of using faction ships is prohibitive for anyone sensible. 2* ships are accessible to everyone and it’s an opportunity to try out different crews etc. Yes the jelly is powerful in that bracket but some of us bought it and it gathers dust. Additionally why not breathe a bit of life back into the lower ships part of the game? This event genuinely is fun. It doesn’t screw our RSS or repair speed up bank and EVERYONE can participate. Much of the last set of events fell way short of the mark. Yes I would love to see more of this PvP and organised in a way to play down some of the innate advantages, or involve group targets and faction buffs, but this event has been fun. How anyone can complain about this after having to farm 10 million data 8 seconds at a time is beyond me
stable ivy
Where are the repair speed ups to offset the costs? Practice should not cause a resource drain.
oblique adder
Heh says the owner of a jelly, come to my server and try to do event without a jelly see how FUN it is. I think they should put all the jellies.against each other in one system and ppl who dont have jellies in another
stray harbor
I would agree with the statement that jellyfish is a money move by Dopely, if they actually had jelly blueprints for sale. As a level 31, it is not possible to build one for me, because I missed the events when it was first released.
neon oasis
After ALL of the complaints from before jellies are STILL here? Really?
winged axle
@wintry schooner dont worry about negativity in here. People who doesn't like something talk a lot more than people who likes something which can be seen as majority doesnt like the event but it is the opposite 99% of the time
shy grotto
those pvp events ate funny but a little bit to short. after everyone on my server got his 45 points they stopped and make other things.
dim whale
You guys that are complaining about the Jelly being OP in this event try working out a good crew for the Talla. I went 15/0 this morning with a maxed Talla......
signal tapir
No. It's a good event, but JF should not be included. Typical Scopely: ruin a good event with stupid imbalance. And no, I'm not interested in wasting $20-100 on a useless JF pack. Event is 🚮 with JF
neon oasis
@dim whale unless the jellies are all from tiny players, low teir, and bad crews, you cannot kill 15 Jellies with a maxed talla and a good crew...
modest quarry
I like the event however I do think that it is one sided for those that had the REAL MONEY to buy one, they don’t offer the jf to us reg players that can’t afford it, no quests to get no event to get there just like give us money and you can have the jf I don’t know about y’all but I’m on a fixed income. I play this game to try and escape reality for a few hours and them making things one sided is making me want to find a new game
potent depot
Get rid of the damn jelly's as not everyone could get them.
gleaming goblet
Congratulations Scopely only you would thank 3 combat events in 3 wildly separate areas would be a good idea! The pvp combat is a joke not because of the Jellyfish or lack of it. The wasteful drain of resources for shards that are not even part of any event. You need to fire your content makers and find some real game designers.
gleaming goblet
O really smart the augment hostiles don’t count toward the battle for glory! What a pile of crap.
dim whale
@neon oasis where did I say on one hull? Average 3 per hull with no losses from a mixture of player levels with Jelly’s. Point is you don’t need a Jelky do the event just a Talla which everybody has had at some point.
stark night
Like the Harry Mudd events am in second for the one where you get them pretty cool and it may even last... What this post is about is the other one with the frame that I thought I was also competing for. Turns out you have to JOIN it thanks scopely for the confusing never the same event setups
neon oasis
@dim whale I have a maxed talla with optimal crew and there is no way I can take on 1 let alone 3 full health jellies. The ones you hit had to have already been damaged. There is no other way
15/0 implies you did it in 1 haul because you got killed 0 times... Unless you just went home to repair and came back, which without that information, your stats are misleading.
dim whale
@neon oasis I just gave you that information. What level are you with how much combat research done? What crew do you consider optimal for a Talla? Do you need crayons to help you out? 😂
neon oasis
Ahh now you're patronizing me, thank you! I am level 25 with all my battleship and combat research pertaining to battleships done. I forget which crew it is exactly, but those that amplify battleship techniques on explorers and doing so to optimize synergy and as many high level officers underneath.
dim whale
@neon oasis I think at the point you called me a liar you lost the morale high ground buddy. I’m in Parleon now if want to observe and report back?
neon oasis
Would you be willing to point out exactly which message I used the word "liar"?
Which would be easy if you were on the same server...
dim whale
We are - server12. And “@dim whale I have a maxed talla with optimal crew and there is no way I can take on 1 let alone 3 full health jellies. The ones you hit had to have already been damaged. There is no other way”
neon oasis
Ah I see you are, with a 77k talla, my talla is 62k with optimal crew. interesting enough, I did not use the word "liar" lol
dim whale
No you just said they had to be damaged abs I couldn’t take one healthy Jelly down. I can send you all the SS if you want. A good crew is Yuki Kirk Spock with higher tier Spock unless the other guy is running similar with shield regen, higher shiejd regen than Yuki can strip
neon oasis
I'd love to watch your talla beat 3 full health maxed out jellies
Ah, so your original comments are misleading. Thanks!
dim whale
Where are they misleading? You really are special needs buddy. Was trying to help educate you. GN 🤣👋
neon oasis
@dim whale Wow, I feel bad for you. Insulting me by implying I'm mentally challenged. By saying you're 15/0 there are multiple implications being made that literally cannot be true. Your claim was trying to be in favor of having the jelly be in the event which did not hold up well as there had to be several unique circumstances for your argument to be accurate which were not stated. Instead of talking respectfully and clarifying what you were talking about, you then resulted to patronizing me and insulting me. Some moral high ground.
Regardless, my statements were true, you cannot kill 3 maxed full health jellies with a maxed talla, the situations have to be IDEAL which don't come as often as they would had there been no jelly in this event.
pulsar birch
If you’re gonna make the Jelly’s competitive for these events, at least give the higher tiers an ability to buy them. Holy crap, like I’m sorry I didn’t buy them when I was a poor level 18
toxic wraith
@neon oasis you can just not 3 max tier full health jellies.
3 baby full health jellues
toxic wraith
A maxed jelly is around 97k
toxic wraith
Depends on guys lvl and research
toxic wraith
But a talla of same ops lvl can not take a max tier jelly of same ops lvl
neon oasis
Hell no lol
versed forum
add in the baby jelly ship ability does % bonus more for the cap ability
toxic wraith
And I don't really care my 3 baby salvage phindras die so quick I don't really care
Phins repairs are way lower and they fly faster and repair in alliance near instant so only travel time and anyone can kill them
Pain is can't scrap them quicker than build them
Yes only build them to t6 more efficient since getting more parts from swarms than getting surveys. For envoys.
plain void
Is Scopley ever going to make the Jelyfish BPS available again so people can compete in these PVP events properly rather than just sending their ship into Events Systems to die instantly. i have 31 out of the 75 bps needed to build the Jellyfish from when they first released it but as i was new to the game i could not progress enough to get the jelly also some people who have joined since would not have these either.
neon oasis
nope
pulsar birch
#@pulsar birch @sand auroraopley @prime gulch
winged axle
But a talla of same ops lvl can not take a max tier jelly of same ops lvl
@toxic wraith it can
neon oasis
Aw the professional (wrong) opinion haver is on
@winged axle I wanna see a screenshot of your full health maxed out talla with optimal crew and all buffs take on a full health maxed out jelly with optimal crew and all buffs at the same level you are (all circumstances are the same, just different ship for optimal scientific accuracy, we'll also need screenshots of all research and building buffs to make sure there are no inconsistencies)
Spoiler: it wont win 😘
If you don't try this, you will be accepting you're wrong but you probably won't because your ego couldn't handle if you were. You obviously will have seen it as I tagged you in it. I'll wait, I encourage you to try in the morning.
If the person using the jelly is smart, they'd use their officers to maximize defense so they can take MANY talla hits while ripping apart phindras
It's ridiculous this is being argued about 😂 the third ship should obviously be the Turas
slate stump
The Live Practice event would attract more players if the ship types were only able to attack the same type...a 100k Jelly in a system just stops players going there.
neon oasis
Or if it were 3 2* ships that were actually fair... And you'd have the battle triangle with reasonable ships
wild nebula
These are all the same arguments made at the last running of this event. meaning, they havent changed it, meaning the other 2 days will not be changed. Meaning the events were broken then, the events will continue to be broken now.
vagrant topaz
Scopely has a penchant for rug pulls and moving the goalposts, just because pvp event is the same today doesn't mean it will continue to follow the same pattern as last time
stone tiger
PvP still hasn't been fixed
I just unlocked Carol, even with Carol on the bridge a talla isn't shit against a jellyfish
neon oasis
@winged axle I see you posting in other threads, but I noticed you haven't yet done that experiment. Could you be wrong?
wild nebula
The only reason people are participating in the live practice event is the battle pass points. If nothing else, surely that must tell someone at Scopely something, hint hint
grave rose
Complete waste of time and rss give everyone the ability to have a jelly or don’t do it at all
vagrant topaz
Yes how dare the people that bought a jf have an advantage...it's an outrage!
15 kills, 45 losses or a combination of the two, what does it matter? It's just pixels ffs
Of all the crappy 🐂 💩 scopely pulls this is the hill you all choose to die on? It's a total non-issue
neon oasis
@winged axle n still nothing?
wild nebula
Its Sunday. he can only work so many hours a week for Scopely 😉
winged axle
I dont work for Scopely
wild nebula
The event system is a great system. However, its the contents of the events that troubles me. Lack of imagination and lack of thought in those events.
winged axle
@neon oasis I didnt even replied to you in the first place plus I dont care what you think
neon oasis
Okay cool welp you're basically admitting you're wrong. So thanks
winged axle
Sure. Believe whatever you want
neon oasis
I would like for you to prove that you can kill an equal jelly
winged axle
neon oasis
😘
Case and point
Tell me, how do you kill a jelly with a talla if the only difference between the players is the ship?
If both have optimal officers
Apprise us of your infinite wisdom
rancid portal
Leave the Jellyfish out of the PVP Event! The PVP Event would be a lot of fun without the unfair advantage of that ship.
sharp token
it's plenty fun for those of us with the jellyfish 
sharp token
the whole event is dumb imo lol
neon oasis
I like the idea of pvp events, but they should at least be fair
sharp token
when you're in a "normal warp" home system, and still require either relocating or using cadet scotty just to reach the pvp system, it's broken by design imo
neon oasis
Agreed, but at least it's not in a system that has auto hostile chasers that you can't kill
sharp token
they need to make special systems that can basically be reached from anywhere, in a very short amount of time
with everyone on a level playing field too, thats how you make a pvp event fun
neon oasis
New systems around kaikara would be reasonable
wild nebula
Your waisting your breath on Jellyfish argument - does not matter how many times players say - leave it out of the event - Egos have determined it will be in the event.
dim whale
neon oasis
Hey would you look at that! It doesn't have optimal officers, and you cannot take 3...
At least you tried
dim whale
I said 2-3 depending on level and officer mix.
You are making friends I see!
And I very much doubt mate you would know an “optimal crew” if it bit you in the arse. What is an “optimal crew” anyway. Surely it depends on ship tier, ship type, opponent ship tier, opponent ship type and as important opponent crew. I would conclude you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about 😂. Have a great rest of your day 😘
winged axle
@dim whale people will always complain. Cant satisfy the whiners
dim whale
Or the impaired
neon oasis
@dim whale I explained earlier, optimal crew for jelly would be max defense as they can take out any phindra and need to defend any talla. So you agree that ship tier, opponent ship teir, buffs, etc. are all important and yet you exclude them from your experiment in an attempt to humiliate me
Then you say I don't know what I'm talking about LOL you're hillarious, it's basic mathematics...
dusky sleet
<@&509690795536941056> could we please get a rush ops event. a lot of players have been waiting for one and it has been a long time since we got one.
dim whale
@neon oasis I don’t need to try and humiliate you, you are doing a fine job yourself 😂
dreamy hamlet
What is a rush ops?
winged axle
@dreamy hamlet an event where you get rewards based on how many times you upgraded your ops
For example upgrade ops 2 times in 3 days to get ISS Jelly
neon oasis
It's difficult to argue with a smart person, it's impossible to argue with an idiot. I asked you to apply an accurate scientific method, one where there is the most control of all variables and you use 1 win without knowing every variable as 'evidence'. You need to go back to 5th grade science and understand what the word variable means
All buffs need to be the same, the crew in both ships need to be optimized (best crew in talla to kill a jelly, best crew in jelly to defend a talla), both ships need to be maxed and players need to be the same level otherwise the 'proof' is inconclusive.
dreamy hamlet
@winged axle Holy shit. I have played that. I was Below level 18 the last time I saw that. I’m 28 now
winged axle
There is 2 ops event I know. One for lvl1->20 and another one for lvl35+. Dont think there is one for mid levels so I wouldnt get that excited if I were you 😅
dim whale
@neon oasis you seem to be misunderstanding the purpose of a game here which is to enjoy it 😂
neon oasis
Hey, @winged axle he said a potty word. And you didn't remove it 🤣 #doublstandards
@neon oasis you seem to be misunderstanding the purpose of a game here which is to enjoy it 😂
@dim whale Coming from a scientific family, I thoroughly enjoy analysis of gameplay and strategy.
To have an accurate experiment, which you tried and obviously failed, you need to have what is called a ''control.' This is where you set a baseline, eliminating as many factors as you possibly can. This is why you need someone of the same level, same buffs, maxed ship, best crew for offense, best crew for defense, and to eliminate the 'randomness' of the battle reports, you will need to do the experiment multiple times with consistent variables and take note of the patterns. Anecdotal evidence is not evidence, it's just saying things to shut me up and is completely inaccurate. I'm open to being wrong, but I know I'm not.
Nice try though, 'buddy,' all you proved is how little you know about the scientific method
dim whale
Yeah I know, IQ of over 155, successful CEO of oil and gas tech company, been in subsea R&D for over 20 years...... no clue, I agree. You’ve got this. Expect to see screen shots shortly of your “Epic” crew setups.
neon oasis
Aww, quite humble too! Stable genius I see. Just because you're a CEO doesn't mean you have expertise in the scientific process... Kudos on being a good businessman (or woman, but judging by your ego, a man)
dim whale
No but the large number of patents for subsea and onshore oil and gas disruptive technologies does.
neon oasis
Congratulations?
Do you need a participation prize?
Idk what you expect me to say, if you were so well educated in the scientific process, your experiments wouldn't have been completely invalid
neon oasis
Oh you just need one possibly from the bat man who likes to kiss up to anyone who disagrees with someone complaining
Okay...? I assume that was an attempt at an insult, I'm so offended.
I find it funny how people think it's okay to harass others because of the anonymity of a username and a screen. I find it even more funny that even though there is a TOS, the mods don't do anything about it
And even break their own rules 🤣
dim whale
I give up 😂
neon oasis
I call implying I am mentally impaired harassment, yeah
But I'm sure you conveniently can't see it
dim whale
No I said impaired which is because I suspect you may have been drinking from your lack of coherence
neon oasis
You also said "special needs"
So yeah, using those low bar insults are a form of harassment
dim whale
I think you seem incredibly needy
neon oasis
And like I said, you said impaired... So idk what you're trying to say with that statement
dim whale
And demanding of attention
winged axle
Whatever end the discussion or I will end it
bold dune
If there is going to keep being events focused on the original jellyfish can you give those that couldnt get enough bps when it was intially released or for those that came after a way to get it?
signal tapir
fyi, crews can never be equal due to JF ship ability increasing effectiveness of captain maneuver
viscid phoenix
Is the JF ship ability fixed? Pretty sure it never worked before.
bold dune
Funny they all had horrible crew setups for an explorer its not surprising you won. Put a good crew in it and you wouldnt have the same outcomes
signal tapir
I've missed nothing. I need t3 anti-fac crew to kill 1 jelly. Event is sadly but predictably unbalanced.
At least they got that cool graphic with the jelly for the event card
winged axle
With t3 anti Fed you can kill more than 1. More like 5 in 1 trip
dim whale
😂 are people still not getting this?
vagrant topaz
P2w mobile games are a prime example of capitalism in a microcosm...if you fail to understand why the jelly owners have an advantage then you fundamentally fail to understand capitalism...pay like the others or take your 45 losses and gtfo
pure hamlet
Aren’t we suppose to get Augment Officer Event points for ourselves and our alliance for obtaining Epic Officer shards?
winged axle
If it is Khan yes
pure hamlet
Not for Mudd?
winged axle
Mudd isnt Augment
😅
Dont worry you arent the first one making this mistake,I thought he was Augment at first as well
pure hamlet
He’s grouped with them in the officer listings when sorted by group. 🤷🏻♂️
Maybe events need better rule details so players can better understand them.
shy grotto
secret plan to introduce a new faction? 🤔🤔
lyric lily
🤔
shy grotto
why aren't they make the alteady introduced borg an own faction. with buildable ships and some reseach options?
lyric lily
Because Borg is over, for now.
( obligatory dun dun dunnn )
As for your earlier question, be careful man. Mudd's a con-artist. It could all be a major plot to fool you into thinking there might be a new faction. Or maybe he wants you to think that it could be a major plot to mask the truth! Or maybe you might think it could be a major plot to mask the truth whilst in fact being false! OR MAYBE..

plush hedge
I really hate spending all day mining for mining events. I'd love rapid mining to be expanded to lat mining if not all mining. Would make lat rush so much more tolerable
barren wadi
@plush hedge they will probably introduce a token for sale to multiply specific mining speeds for $499.99
@winged axle Is there going to be enough battle pass points given in the events to finish or is there going to be a requirement of purchasing the rest?
winged axle
That depends on how many of the daily events you do during this arc
barren wadi
I’ve done them all so far every day and currently I’m roughly 35k behind.
kindred mesa
I've completed all dailies so far, and am roughly 5k points from finishing
kindred mesa
so exactly, no worries
if people spent the time in game that they spent whining here... well they wouldn't need to whinie
winged axle
Then there would be no reason for us to be moderators!😮 but I love being a mod😢
kindred mesa
I know TheBatMan, but I love your replies
barren wadi
I guess we are not supposed to have a full time job outside of the game either.
kindred mesa
even my cat says... quit whining
barren wadi
Asking a question is not whining in Texas.
I guess being a smart as son discord is required too?
kindred mesa
yep, being a smart ass on discord scores tokens
that's why I'm 5k away and you are 10k away
look, no smart ass here, there are 10 more days in the arc, plenty of time to finish
barren wadi

For every new officers added to the game, wouldn't it make sense to let us acquire more officers' badges f2p? What is the point of them if i cannot promote 99% of them? with the currently f2p acquirable badges a player cannot even max out a single purple.

Scopely doesn't want f2p they merely tolerate us
@vagrant topaz They are free to make the game non f2p... but also risk making the game empty
Imagine if they had to pay a million players just to replace those f2p

Some of us had a GREAT time in the recent PvP event...because it was all Phindras and Tallas. There wasn't a Jellyfish to be seen! We had a blast! Scopely should really drop the Jellyfish from that event and just make it Phindras and Tallas. (Or Jellies could have their own system to battle each other.)

Ok, I am having an issue with the data node event. First, the node locks up, I can switch nodes but have now locked up multiple nodes. Second, I can attack a node locked by someone else but now I can't even do that. Help!! This very, very frustrating for the data mining event...

Reply from Scopely - "Hello. It's Luke here. I know this can be troublesome. I can assure you though the team continues to work on the game to provide you a smoother and better gaming experience. I'll make sure to forward your report. I'm not able to provide you a timeframe on the resolution at the moment but rest assured we're working on this."

May be beating a dead horse here... But the Augment Mining event is a little ridiculous and overall just asinine.. Nodes have to be reset every 10 to 15 secs.. Some slightly longer..
Might as well not have the event at all at this rate.. Game already requires a massive amount of invested time and this takes the cake.. Have to stay glued to the screen in this event instance...
Please for love of God correct it..
Just increase the augment node values in the same manner you decreased them... Easy.. How many other gamers feel the same out of curiosity?
worldly umbra
I think all mining should follow the data extraction route. Increase the rates tremendously and drop the limits. Hear far too many people crying when they AFK-mine and come back to a blown up ship, it's your own fault for not monitoring it...
covert flicker
A note about daily events. For months now we are spammed during day and night phases with this ship upgrade milestones with bad rewards. They too often block chances for double events 12+6h which a lot players like to match. Leaderboard variants are a bit better and players who get them are diversified since that pretty much depends on moment some players progress. But this is just not worth this often appearance. Too make matters worse ship XP events have totally been removed. Please make this ship upgrade events more rare and restore those old ship XP events to appear in normal cycles.

@boreal canyon That’s not too hard to do. It’s not a case of some way. Every programming Lang provides built in functions for such events. The most basic of which is an if else statement.
count = num_of_ships_in_area
min_amount (the minimum amount of ships required)
If count >= min_amount {
Run code to allow armada start
} else {
Run code to block armada start
}
The real code would be more complex but the general idea is the same. They would have to take into account the existing functions though.
boreal canyon
They have so many bugs currently though, I doubt it will happen soon. So many officers that don't work correctly or at all. No idea when if ever they'll be fixed. Could be wrong could be an easy fix, no way to know how it affects the rest of the game

Got an idea for an event. A diabolical diabolical idea...
1 week no events.
only one mining node for G2 and G3 ore, crystal, gas. All other mining nodes are removed.
The nodes move at reset to random locations.
Node size is reduced to 3500
Bonus refinery gives 100x uc than normal from rss mined from the nodes during the event.

How can you want steel.. I have a billion.. 300k lat and 15 mill dil... what are you doing wrong... raid more maybe.. cause each raid is min 100mill steel for medium bases

Raiding is a mugs game, you make yourself a target. You speed builds to clear your excess and you continually hit bottlenecks you have to buy your way past.

It’s difficult. I agree on that.
Lags and delays and random kick outs
But when game goes right there are some players who can manicure multiple ships and attack like champions
vagrant topaz
There's no difficulty to it, no skill, it's just dicking over weaker players for your own smug selfgratification

You can counter those auto attacks

Ye favour for the stronger.. cause they stronger... but 3 medium on a strong could do the job... pvp 1 v 1 is of course the stronger ship... 30 v 30 there is skill..
vagrant topaz
Without an element of skill pvp is just the same as pve, all you're doing is tapping a different coloured triangle
In an actual pvp game a weaker player with skill would beat a stronger player with none
Or at least feel he/she had a chance
And no I don't mine all day, I do my 3x25k dailys (1hr20) then I set and forget my 2 dvors and go do literally anything else more interesting/fun.
This is a stupid mobile game that serves as a minor distraction to my day to day life, it's not my life and it's not my job so I refuse to let scopely try to make it that. If this game ever starts taking more time than I want to put in I'll drop it like a hot brick
hardy imp
PvP is what you make of it. On one hand, Dys is correct that 1-on-1 PvP favors the stronger player. On the other hand, there are some solid strategies for raiding even when there are stronger players defending against the raiders. Or conversely, strategies for weaker players to defend against stronger raiders.
plush hedge
I still love the target practice, but at the last day of the event with only 100 zeta tokens at stake, i suspect a lot of people will be sitting it out. Fewer targets will be much less fun. (especially with the junk blueprints reducing the value of those tokens greatly)
forest spear
Soo... you make data mining a nightmare and something we all hate - so you make us do it once a week with an event?
Are you hoping to beat us into submission? Because, that's not going to work.
Since we know Scopely makes money off of us burning rss, we are playing very nice in Augment space just to spite you for this TERRIBLE idea.
Yeah, we could fight a big battle over Yarda, but why would would take out our frustration on our fellow victims?
Just fire whoever keeps coming up with these terrible ideas already. Send him and whoever breaks the game to favor the Feds to the unemployment office.
plush hedge
Data mining is not hated by everyone.
forest spear
5 people on Twitter don't count.
plush hedge
Data mining is so much better than before. You might hate getting the event done faster and less painfully than before, but not everyone does.
forest spear
LESS painfully than before? You were doing it wrong.
lyric quiver
Faster yes less painful I don’t know about that
plush hedge
It was a multi-hour ordeal of babysitting miners and fighting for a spot. Now it's basically like grinding hostiles. You mine quickly and painless. You can take breaks. You can get in and out quickly
wicked pike
No emergency phindra? How will I finish the event, I rage scrapped mine every time 🤣
forest spear
Multi hour ordeal? Do you not have other people in your alliance? It only takes one, maybe two to guard the miners in an entire system.
plush hedge
I'm not going to argue it with you. I'm just countering your feedback. Not everyone hates the faster and easier data events.
forest spear
Also, if you touch a miner of my alliance in Aug space, you can cancel whatever your alliance was doing for the next week, because you won't be able to leave your base.
lyric quiver
Feedback to scopely. If you change an event even if a one off. Give us a heads up and let us know if it’s a permanent or one time change. Respect your customers
forest spear
Having a data mining event when we haven't even begun to spend the data we got from the last event is just stupid.
lyric quiver
For me the data event only feels easier in the sense that it’s over faster
plush hedge
That is feedback I agree with. I don't know why we don't have larger "data refine" options. There should be at least a double refine option for our hoardes of data
forest spear
Data mining makes me pay attention to mining - which I HATE. I do not play Star Trek Fleet Command so I can mine...
Not even Minecraft makes you mine as much as this game does.
ionic flame
Once again, if you are going to include a ship in an event that can only be bought then please include the blueprints in the store for those that dont have one.
Latinum Rush? D'Vor goes on sale
Data Mining? Here is a few nice Botany Bay offers
Threat from Beyond? Please buy and build another Franklin
PvP with a Jellyfish? Sorry cant help you there
plush hedge
It is not only over with faster, you can do it any time of day. There are always nodes, so people don't have to hold nodes with horizons or play macho games like "you touch my miner and I'll pretend like I can make your like miserable because I'm a big tough space cowboy". There is a downside in that there's less conflict in augment space now. That could be solved by making stolen data count for the event
I would love it if we could finish the event by collecting OC data miners
So - bigger data refine options and data harvesting are my big wishes. Slightly bigger nodes would be great, but not so big people feel they need to guard any specific node. Active miners only
forest spear
Data mining has always been annoying - but at least I could do other stuff while I did it. Now it just sucks.
Also, don't excuse weakness. If you aren't willing to fight in this game you shouldn't play a game with fighting. This isn't Star Trek Mining.
There is only less conflict in Aug space on my server because we are all united in our hate of Scopely and we understand that by not wasting resources on conflict we decrease the likelihood that anyone will buy a pack.
"Active miners"... make us actively participate in the part of the game we hate most. Brilliant. Scopely is full of masters at reminding me not to give them money.
Oh, but DEFINITELY don't fix the officers that have been broken since the game started...
We WANT to fight, but keep having to waste our time on stupid stuff like mining.
plush hedge
I would love some meaningful conflict in augment space, like hitting over cargo miners. I don't love mining, but if we are going to have a mining event, making it active and fast is the way to go
forest spear
An OPC data mining event would be interesting.. briefly. Strong alliances would just seize systems and guard them. Weak ones would be left with whatever remains.
OR... they could stop with the mining events.
plush hedge
Sounds like like fun. I'd love to fight an alliance that thought they could control yarda
Though, I don't believe at all that's how it would play out
forest spear
You say that... but you aren't on my server. It wouldn't be a contest.
forest spear
On the contrary - we love to fight, which is why these new events suck. We don't like wasting our time on dumb stuff.
If they want conflict, we need to have a good reason to fight. Data isn't it.
plush hedge
If you've engineered a server where one alliance could control everything, that sounds like a very boring server to me
forest spear
Haha, there was one alliance that the whole rest of the server declared war on, and lost.
I don't know what you mean by "engineered"
That ultra-dominant alliance broke in two because it was boring once dominance was unquestioned. Still, they work together to give Scopely the finger when they send a dumb event our way.
plush hedge
Anyway, thanks for the discussion. I hope scopely continues to iterate on data mining to continue to improve it. In the meantime, I'm thankful for these great improvements to data mining .
forest spear
I just want officers fixed... I don't want them touching a single thing until burning if fixed. That it is still broken is just insane.

If the recruit tokens were comparable to the khan shards, I think fewer people would be complaining. But, the pitance of tokens from the event is huge step down.

I'll be right there with you, I still need Khan
but if he's intended to be gated at 5 shards/week, that's what's happening

If only they had community managers to inform the community. Or, any sort of communication at all...
upper iron
I mean, even if they did communicate it, can we trust what they say? They've flipped the switch on us many times after telling us stuff. I do agree, more transparency would be nice, but people are up in arms whether they communicate or not, so why bother?
plush hedge
Then they should say "We changed our mind". Nobody really would care of scopely said "We are going to do X" and then later say "We are going to do Y". But when you say nothing or say X and do Y, people do tend to get upset, especially when saying anything at all is rare.
upper iron
are you kidding? They've done that before, and yeah, people cared and were really upset

No - they've never done that

Ummm, mergers are coming....mergers were supposed to happen two weeks ago...mergers are on hold indefinitely...bam, mergers with 12 hours notice
and yeah, there were lots of people whining and complaining all through that and even had trolls in here asking about server mergers for weeks
plush hedge
Yeah - that's just stupid, because the people telling us things don't get told things
upper iron
and that's just one example, there are others
so yeah, they have done that
I'm sure the <@&509691611903426561> Can cite other times we have been told stuff, it didn't happen, and the community raged
plush hedge
And think about that situation. Panic obviously didn't know what the plans were. He said something he thought was true, but scopely doesn't communicate so what does he know.
And then they changed it - without saying anything
That's the problem. No communication.
If the people ocassionally saying things don't know what's going on, that's just noise, not communication
upper iron
I think there was a big hullabaloo around the time Armadas were launching and things were said, things changed and people were upset
plush hedge
Again, that's because we're not getting actual information

With Live Target Practice I, unless you have a Jellyfish or happen to fall on lower level players, it means you struggle to in the event. With not being able to get the Jellyfish after you level beyond a certain point, is it possible to look at a way that higher level players can get hold of the Jellyfish if they didn't purchase it earlier, even if it means purchasing it?
dusky sleet
per scopely's decisions, A ship pack always has move Crystal than other materials, then why does a ship event rewards always ores? and the problem isn't just here. the event rewards are so badly designed that almost all players have ended up with excess uc ores and crave for either gas or crystal. even a random material for reward would be better than what scopely decides should be an event's reward.
vagrant topaz
Upgrade ships for station rewards, aquire officer shards for ship rewards, and eventually we'll see station event with research rewards...it does actually make some sense although currently research events are also ship based rewards which is a wrinkle
The old style lb's rotated through ship/station/research/officer rewards, rss and materials were weighted towards one of those themes
dusky sleet
That would make sense if station upgrade didn't need other uncommons or ships never needed ores. I think we can agree that gas and crystal are the most used/needed of the three. And that the events should either reward those 2 often or just be random. but ofcourse scopely would choose most of the events to reward ores for obvious reasons.
languid marlin
@dusky sleet problem is, there are alternate building, research, and officer events that have not rolled out to all servers yet. They have rewards more along the lines of that ship one, but are "easier" to obtain, and are more focused rewards. My server only has the ship one, but I know others have gotten the "new" other events.
dusky sleet
@languid marlin do you have screenshots of any of those alternate events?
languid marlin
No, but if I remember correctly, @winged axle showed me some before

New research and officer shard events pay good amount of trit and crystal
Big research/officer event gives around 24-32 unc cry I think and around 10-12m trit
This is top milestone of big officer shard event

Not disagreeing just saying they theme the rewards. Par and ore are station theme, cry and trit are ship, gas and dil research...i know all 3 use a mix but this is the canvas scopely is painting on...not my fault their brushes are dipped in 💩

Why do those players, who bought outlaws packages earlier get penalized now? I do not need any battle-pass-points anymore, I would rather have the usual rewards for the swarm-events 😡😡😡. Is this a clever strategy towards paying players?

First time or two for Live Target Practice was fun. Now, it has become tedious and frustrating. Tired of flying my ships (jelly or no) into a bigger jelly wall. 45 loses later, finally done...

I wouldn't say they are penalized. the points doesn't even stack in your inventory anymore. Plus, the value of buying those points is to just have an early access to contents/missions. It was made clear that you could complete the outlaw battlepass event without any purchase
@languid marlin use vemet to decrease the amount of runs. or just use a talla to kill all jellys. takes me 4-5 talla runs

For Live Target Practice I think it would be better if the PvP bands were smaller and then keep certain level ranges in separate systems. Despite having a Jelly(which I do agree others should be able to buy during/just prior to the event) when I go to one of the zones as a 22 I barely stand a chance even against a Talla if they are 30 with additional research and officers. Perhaps set it so 18-24 are in one system, 25-28ish another and 29+ in another. Not to sure on those ranges, someone could probably give better input than I on it, but still think the idea of separate level brackets in separate systems would streamline it a bit.

@dusky sleet It would be better if they offered same number of crystal instead of ore... we need crystal for primary ship, vidar, faction miners, research and some buildings as well.... Crystal and gas are clearly used more than ore and yet these events only give us ore for no reason...
My talla is 70k and running into 130k jellies.
@languid marlin Yuki marcus and mirek can take dow jellies easily with yuki as captain
I like the idea of live target practice but... the way it is implemented is just bad... Make the event have only one ship or ships that everyone has... I actually would say realta event would be amazing.... and secondly, the way it is restricted to only those three systems makes it annoying.... relocating jz for an event is a bad idea... make it galaxy wide. Anyone can hit anywhere and let groups of players choose systems on their own
Please make everyone fight with same ship and no restrictions with systems

Please stop with the data events :) (we have done so many on a row) with the mines this small, doing the events doesn’t happen.
How about raiding event? Or pvp event out of those sys and with the ship we like? :)
how about having a new sys with a hostile base full of goodies, that appears and disappears like an armada, the size could be random, and the players could go there and fight between each other in order to be able to attack it?

@karmic plinth too many good Ideas, let's just recycle more events...
toxic wraith
They had to slot something in an content creators hinted it would be cow
wet vale
CoW is good, just can't stand the military supremacy event trying to find enough lvl40 spawns. And rewards are nowhere near good enough to even consider buying an enterprise pack to skip it.
vagrant topaz
Rewards have gotten worse and point requirements higher in the past week or two. Events are going downhill.
simple hazel
Military Supremacy. Another event all but excluding players under lvl 25.
simple hazel
Ways to score points.
Build D’vor. Which you can’t until lvl 25
Build Franklin. Have to buy. Or get lucky on prior events to obtain blueprints.
Tier up Dvor or Franklin (see above)
Kill 500 hostiles in 48 hours.
So the message is be lvl 25+, spend money or spend every waking minute killing hostiles.
Not very fair.
mighty temple
Mayflower only scoring 1 point for crucible of war monthly alliance leaderboards? I had to take my shoes off to count to 20, but certain that's what I should see on the screen here
viscid phoenix
@mighty temple long standing issue that the banners show the wrong info but you actually score the correct number of points.

Ah ha.... okay

@simple hazel I'm under 25 and already completed it. You have 3 days to do it too.
ionic briar
So the message is be lvl 25+, spend money or spend every waking minute killing hostiles.
@simple hazel Why not send your ship to a faction system that you are enemies with or augment system? I left overnight and woke up with 190 loot chests.... Meaning I at least killed 190 hostiles tonight... (actually it would be more in the range or 300-500 hostiles)
winged axle
Build D’vor. Which you can’t until lvl 25
@simple hazel it is lvl23
thorny perch
Only ohne guy of our ally has this Event. How does this work? Is there any reason to get this?
(I mean Military Event left)
empty badger
From what I understand. Military supremacy will show up if you have the rep for a faction ship and the level to build it, but you haven’t built it yet. For example if you are respected with fed, are level 35, but haven’t built an enterprise, you should have received the epic ship military supremacy event. There’s one for the 26s the 28s and the 32s
Basically it’s to encourage you to spend on a new ship. Which is why you get full points if you build one. And because people do multiple reps, you have the tiering option for points, due to the fact you may have already built ONE of the specific ships, but not the other.
The rewards are pretty minor
Or, I should say, pretty minor compared to the cost of building that ship anyway lol
Also, it doesn’t activate if you already have higher ships. So if you skips the 26s, and build a 28, you will only get 28 supremacy until you can’t get it coz you built all ships you can, and you will never get the 26 supremacy
thorny perch
@empty badger thx. That Sounds logical.... In Scopely way
ionic briar
Also, it doesn’t activate if you already have higher ships. So if you skips the 26s, and build a 28, you will only get 28 supremacy until you can’t get it coz you built all ships you can, and you will never get the 26 supremacy
@empty badger Damn... Should have waited... 😅
thorny perch
It's also at lvl 30/31 here
vagrant topaz
Pretty minor? 160mil par, 80 uc cry and gas, rare cry and gas, a few mil trit (all rss in unraidable tokens too)...for whats required the rewards are decent tbh, the issue is the availability and spawn rates of lvl40s
winged axle
For example if you are respected with fed, are level 35, but haven’t built an enterprise, you should have received the epic ship military supremacy event.
@empty badger I am lvl35 going to 36,Fed/Rom locked and dont have an Ent.... so it doesnt work always
vagrant topaz
I've said it before and I'll say it again, lvl34+ military supremacy needs the milestones doubling and 39's added as a 1pt target
Been getting MS event since lvl34, 5 times now. The specifics of who qualifies is discussed every time and every time all theories get shot down by outlier cases. If I was a betting man I'd say it's based more on your spending history than lvl, rep, ships etc
empty badger
@winged axle what level is your shipyard?
empty badger
Have you built the augur? I would consider what I said to be qualifying for supremacy. Ie, if you are NOT qualified you should not have it. There may be outliers on the non appearance of it. But I’d rather hear from people who DO have it and don’t meet the qualifications
Coz all it means there’s just a hidden qualifier no one knows about yet
vagrant topaz
Ability to build the required ship is obviously a factor but there's more to the algorithm than just that...spending habits would be most on brand for scopely
empty badger
For example perhaps some research level, or other building requirement.
Ie. If you deliberately didn’t build or research something you thought was unimportant or not required just for the ops level
vagrant topaz
You're over thinking it, it's all about the Benjamin's
empty badger
Yes it may be that you need to have unlocked the 99.99 packs to get supremacy seeing as all of them cost at least 99.99 to buy the bps
But if you ever received a lower supremacy, then you should get all higher ones as you hit the qualification targets
vagrant topaz
Trust me if you spelt military supremacy correctly then you've already put more thought into it than scopely

Kill 500 hostiles in 48 hours.
@simple hazel 72 hours

After 16hrs, 7 of those I was asleep

Yup, this event is really not too hard

It's a pain in the ass and time consuming is all

I maxed mine about two minutes after it launched. I just sped up the Saladin build I was doing since I had already built the Bortas and centurion the day before.
winged axle
Lucky 😂
inner oasis
yeah last time I had a ship lined up too, was awesome 😄
It's a pain in the ass and time consuming is all
@vagrant topaz I like that it kjinda forces me to grind faction, which I dont do normally xD
vagrant topaz
Triple locked...it's just a pain in the ass for me
inner oasis
me2, but doing 20m so i can do some of the researches
wet vale
As i say every time this event comes up, it's not grinding 500 kills that i find so painful, it's grinding 1000 38/39s just so that you can try and kill the 40s that spawn.
vagrant topaz
Yep that's my issue too, as usual we just get gaslighted by mods and sub-34 players that have no clue what it's like
languid marlin
Annoying for sub 34s as well... have to kill 500 36+ and I can probably do.... 40 per run? That might be generous... but have to also kill 35s to get 36s and 37s to spawn.
winged axle
Ah what ship and crew do you have?
40 lvl36s per trip is pretty bad for a lvl32-33 player
languid marlin
Ops 30. T7 cent. Pike/moreau/chen vs explorers/traders (fed/rom). But ship power is sub 1mil
969k more specifically
My t6 sally does not seem to really do any better (and about 1600 uc crystal from tiering)
languid marlin
Good to know, but... lots of trips
winged axle
Yeah no idea why people need to kill ops+6 lvl hostiles while in almost every other hostile event it is ops+4
languid marlin
And most others give some points for lesser hostiles, and lots of points for top level hostiles... here, +6 levels and only 2 points per
upper iron
gotta prove your military supremacy
gilded edge
repair costs aren't worth the rewards
and in mine, the goal is to build and upgrade the cent, I already got the cent, but not the 800+ unc gas to upgrade/tier it

stiff parrot
hey guys I am lev 33 and I didn't get the military supremacy event - a few (more) month ago I got it ... I asked the support why I don't got the event .... answer was that its not a defect and that it depends on how I play the game 🤷♂️ ..... what should I do to get this event ???? Some ideas ?
warped sierra
@stiff parrot so tis event is structured differently depending on your ops, your faction reputation levels, and your ship inventory. can you tell me a bit about yoruself? ops level, your rank with all three factions, and the faction ships you currently own
pliant ibex
Does anyone know the criteria you need to fullfill to get the event military supremacy?
warped sierra
@pliant ibex long story short is, you need to have the corresponding faction ship for your ops, and have the rep to build it.
ish.
forops 33 and down.
34+ remains a mystery lol
vagrant topaz
$$ that's the criteria...if you're not spending enough they hit you with ms event
warped sierra
as even MYSELF, violates my theory on 34+...
oh lmao @vagrant topaz bologna LOL
unless you mean indirectly by NOT having the faction ships lol
but it's not tied to actual $$$ spent
i've always spent a fair amoutn, and always had it, til i crossed to 34+ now i don't.
vagrant topaz
I'm fairly sure it's a factor in the algorithm
warped sierra
for 34+ it COULD be. 33 and down has been rock solid for me.
pliant ibex
@warped sierra
i'm ops31 with all ops28 and all ops31 faction ships and i didnt get the event.
People with only one ops28 ship got the event
warped sierra
proves my point. lol
vagrant topaz
If they aren't using our spending history as a motivator why be so secretive?
warped sierra
if you're ops 31 and have all ops 28 ships, (30's don't count i don't believe) then you won't get the event.
once you push to ops 32, you would see the event, because teh qualifier moves to rare ships, BUT ONLY if your rep level allows you to purchase those bps in your faction store.
pliant ibex
Rep is maxed for rom and kling and on the way to maxed for fed
warped sierra
in fairness @vagrant topaz you COULD be right, BUT, secretive tendencies are def NOT a factor, as they've never communicated anything, ever LMAO
vagrant topaz
Until they operate with more transparency I'm gonna go ahead and assume the worst because so far they've offered little evidence to the contrary
pliant ibex
So you only get the event if you dont have a certain ship? Seems to be a bit strange.....
warped sierra
not really strange, they're rying to motivate people to GET the ship.
giving you an opportunity to amass the resources to get the ship.
pliant ibex
Which also means that active players wo spend a lot of time grinding for ships and rep get punished for doing so👏 👏 👏
warped sierra
basically telling you, you're not ready for the ops level you are at. if you dno' have it, then they feel you're ready to go. if you have it, means you suck. LMAO
just kidding. but not really
vagrant topaz
There's exceptions to every theory so far. Every time it pops up new theories abound and exceptions to them crop up. Scopely refuses to divulge the information we need
I'm triple locked faction with ops38 and a 2mil augur and I still got it, got it every time since I hit lvl34
warped sierra
LOL you're not listening man. i've said there are NO theroies on ops 34+. no lasting ones anyway. every theory has already been busted. we've got nothing left on 34+ ie"remains a mystery" lol
but for 33 and down, it's rock solid
vagrant topaz
Since around lvl34 I stopped spending, have only bought the premium rewards and this battle pass thing since armadas rolled out. My previous spending was enough to open up the 100€ packs required to buy epic bp's...purchase history might not be the only factor but I'm 100% convinced it's A factor
I wouldn't mind if the rewards were terrible, I could happily skip it but at 160mil par over 100 uc's (crystal and gas mix) a few mil trit and a handful of rares it's just tempting enough to make me grind it out...5 fecking times...
stiff parrot
@warped sierra FED ROM 10Mil - Kling near 2 Mil / OPS 33 / Sala Lev 40 / Intrepit Lev 30 / Valkis Lev 20 / May Lev 35
warped sierra
no gladius? and you didn't get the event?

no gladius and no brel

i meant no gladius, lol

So many leaderboard events...so many station upgrade events. Lame. 3 day event where you get points for tiering up ships and how many heroic ship events have run? 0 so far 🙁

Yep leaderboard central as usual

It isnt that hard to win those ship lbs in my server at lvl36+
First place wasnt even 20k
boreal canyon
- I this half the server bought an epic and leveled it to 20 yesterday 😅
Think
I didnt wanna spend 3400 uc for 8th place, so I'm holding out
I really think they've increased the amount of station events, there's one or two every day without fail
winged axle
Yeah
I hate station events
Worst daily events,only way to do them is to upgrade a turret
boreal canyon
Yes they need to be revamped. New officer xp events are very nice though. Just rare
mild glacier
And you want to save turret upgrades for the leaderboards
boreal canyon
I don't bother with those either...someone always has 300k 10 minutes into those on my server
Either it's a level 28 guy who can upgrade them cheap or some new level 39 who had access to leveling his 5th dock from level 1
mild glacier
It’s not 10 minutes in that the problem, it’s the last 2 minutes when whales dump loads of latinum to rush everything and jump to the top of the board. If you’re over 32 nearly all leaderboards become pointless cuz the lvl 50s just dominate them with ease

Those slbs aren't worth competing for especially with officers

Haha @prime gulch and Scopely are getting ratio'd by this change. Did 3 people suggest it to them so they figured everyone wanted it?

All I know is that Sunday I got much closer to the rarest to obtain shards besides the shakedown special event ones. Who would want to not have Khan?
(three days later) Khan packs in store! Only $99.99!

I'd say it should be an option, but that would require a new currency and turn-in which would be annoying as well
what if they alternated it each week?

@prime gulch We never wanted Khan removed.... Organise a Poll to decide what players want... although the poop emojis explains it already
languid marlin
I am not happy about the change. But, I will say that depending on how many shards, might be ok. If they gave us a full 4k shards, sure. Happy with the change. If just 800... not so much.

What is the deal? The packages being offered are terrible. At the very best it would cost me $1500 to tear up my Mayflower 1 tear. Why are we not getting refined G3 gas unless we buy it and what you want for it really stinks. Frankly even though I love the game and the friends I have made in the game but your getting me and a lot of my friends out of price range. It is really a shame that greed ruins a game.
The distinct ship packages would not even tear up any of my ships.
Sad, very sad to have to leave a game that can be so much fun.
modern quartz
Dear developers, could you put up a milestone event where we earn officer badges? Your PvP event is totally lame. Hhahaha
green ferry
Ok, just checked the new packages available. Yesterday the least expensive package would cost me $1500 to tear up one tear on my Mayflower. The new ultra ship building package it would cost $1400. Wow could you spare it. Also stop giving me ships! I don’t build them then if I did I have no control over which ones I can scrap. I wonder how CBS would feel about this gouging or the state feel about the online gambling aspect that is portrayed by Scopely.
Giving odds is gambling!
timber cradle
Huge difgernce and why we play that game. If 10 times bigger than attacking us?? Why not they give us a chance to growth??
boreal canyon
I miss the borg arc. Every event lately is just another version of hostile hunt with a different name slapped on. I enjoyed the last armada event. Just need more armadas to spawn. The borg armada was good setup honestly. Good store rewards and plenty of targets. Mega cube idea was great in theory, just out of reach for most of the server.

Tge BFG event's solo reward are less than ideal compared to any other events. It needs to be redone.
umbral tusk
I’m level 29 and trying to compete in these events.
These are the rewards for 1st place
This is the leaderboard
Can you figure out something is wrong here?
A level 29 can upgrade alll parts of his upgrade and still not come close to 800 k.... would need to use 100k plus of Latinum it speed up and how can the reward justify this...
boreal canyon
Nothing is wrong. You simply won't be able to win those events ever again

Fells like even the order is allways the same... fraction hunt, bfg...
umbral tusk
Nothing is wrong. You simply won't be able to win those events ever again
@boreal canyon so there is something wrong in the game when it comes to rewards... thank you for clarifying it..
boreal canyon
Just once you reach 29 you're put in a bracket that includes 40+ maybe even 50s @umbral tusk. So unless the start dropping thousands you won't win leaderboards anymore.
umbral tusk
Exactly.. so can all scream and shout at these developers to fix game. This is an over sight by them and needs to be mentioned constantly for changes... just as you notice officer events for tritanium... that is cause people were complaining not enough events with tritanium rewards. They do eventually get balance in the game...
river merlin

BfG event .. as a lev 27Player I need 2000pt. Scoring 20pt per lev30 or better.
A level 30 player for example needs only 750points . Totally unfair.
toxic wraith
Why he's hitting bigger hostilrs
This events a gauge of whether you have lvled too fast for your capabilities, it's saying slow down mate
At 27 you should be in t4 t1 faction ship have no troble
Lvl 30s are easy use triangle
ionic briar
This events a gauge of whether you have lvled too fast for your capabilities, it's saying slow down mate
@toxic wraith That doesn't make sense... I only gotta score 1600 pts and if I was allowed to kill level 40s, I'd have finished the event in a few mins
But he gotta score 2000
toxic wraith
A lvl 30 faction ship is 180k powet
ionic briar
And id he is lv 27, I guess he gains 20 pts for lv 30 hostiles?
toxic wraith
100 lvl 30s is simple with a t5 vahk
If he's still using a frankie or ns no wonder he has problrms
ionic briar
Yeah, but doesn't mean scopley keeps increasing the requirements to finish events without increasing rewards...
toxic wraith
A lvl 30 is hitting 35 plus hostiles of 500k plus power
If you moan they will change it do a lvl 27 has to hit 32+ hostiles for 750 points
And still won't be able to
vagrant topaz
You don't have to hit faction hostiles....neutrals count too and they are generally weaker...just go blitz an augment system of appropriate lvl
toxic wraith
Yep a lvl 30 Aug is way easier
vagrant topaz
Park up overnight with a suitably crewed ship and you'll be done before breakfast
toxic wraith
But there are no Aug hostiles for high lvls
So they have to do factions, so it's balanced in quantity needed
vagrant topaz
There are suitable neutrals if you look...aug top.out at 38 (yarda bounty hunter) which gives lvl39's 6pts
vagrant topaz
120ish
vagrant topaz
Except a lvl39 gets 20pts for 39+ which is 38 kills and super easy
toxic wraith
At lvl 27 he's doing lvl 28 swarms
A lvl 30 hostile is nothing
Yep but lvl 39 is packing a 4mil ship lol
A 27 is packing what 400 to 500k
A 30 should have 1.5nil ship
I am 23 and my dailys are lvl 29 hostiles
At 24 I will be doing dailys of lvl 31
If he's incapable of killing 100 30 hostiles at 27 he lvled too fast and maybe skipped t1 faction ships, and if he's got a vidar he shouldn't have a problem. But if he's trying to use a ns.
And at 27 he should be farming lvl 31 plus faction ships for Sally, bortas or centurion bp
Which requires 100s of kills so just do what you usually do
vagrant topaz
Lvl40 fed explorers in wolf are 1.7mil...4mil are veterans and to be avoided....at ops38 I need to kill just 38xlvl39+ for bfg, my triple respected dailys require 50xlvl39+...the event is so trivial at this bracket it literally requires no additional effort
There is a massive disparity in the number of hostiles needed for lower brackets to finish bfg
38 lvl39's can be done easily with a sub 1mil sally/bortas/cent, it's a joke at our lvl compared to the grind a lvl27 has to endure
lavish patrol
There’s a difference in time needed and amount of hostiles, but not increased difficulty... everyone can make it to lvl 27 and very few to lvl 39. BfG for lvl 27 is ridiculously easy but boring and longer
vagrant topaz
Is it "finished before your dailys" easy? Nope not even close, time needed is also a valid measure of "difficulty" so the fact that most players in my bracket are done through the course of normal gameplay means we absolutely have a reduced difficulty (none at all in fact)
A lvl27 needs to kill 100 hostiles at best their dailys account for 25 of those (highly doubtful they are triple locked at 27), so they have 75 extraneous kills to account for. Worst case scenario for my bracket is 13 extraneous kills

Events are boring as hell since completing Battle Pass, which is almost 2 weeks now. Only fraction hunt at least gives decent rewards
hexed blade
I like the Battle Pass concept and I am glad to see it added to the game. Didn't buy one during the Borg Events because I thought it was overpriced/under-stocked. Bought the $20 one during the Outlaws Events because I wanted to encourage Scopely in what I think is the right direction. But I don't plan to buy the next Battle Pass unless it's more in line with other online games (how much they offer for the price). Frankly, what they have offered in these two Battle Passes was closer to $5 (instead of the $20 they charged), but then I have found very few $$$ packages here to be anywhere close to the value of other online games' offers.

I’d love to give event feedback, but there aren’t any events, so....

Where are the events?

No point in events if can’t even stay connected to game for 5 minutes.

I would really like to see more events and missions geared towards lower level (20 and under) players. This new area of space, the new faction, etc, just cements what is already clear: that you care very little for your lower level players and only want to make them jealous of their higher-level compatriots to make them spend money. Engage them with good game play and excellent content, and they'll be more likely to stay involved.
open otter
It's more of they're trying to push you to level up, most people by now unless on a new server should be past level 20 and even then it's a lot easier to get past ops 20 now than it used to be
wicked pike
There already is plenty of content and missions to keep low levels occupied. Around ops 24 it gets... boring as far as missions are concerned. So I think for a change, this they got right 😆
tough loom
As a makeup gift for today’s debacle give us some badges!!!
hollow willow
I guess tiered events are out the window... this is a pic of the current station event with an ops 28 and an ops 50 competing in the same event. And while some may say that the lower ops are still doing okay, the higher ops levels have access to many more rss with each upgrade adding more and more power
sharp token
@hollow willow most of the older events are like that
while most of the newer event types are tiered much better
hollow willow
I guess I just had never seen the vast difference so succinctly displayed.

If it’s best to postpone the new arc events maybe just throw us at least a domination event. Minimal effort and will compensate people a bit rather than 24 hours of nothing
buoyant bison
@devout wind we’ve just had 2 days of domination 🤦🏻♂️ faction hunt wouldn’t go amiss though 😁
tough loom
Can we get some badges as a I’m sorry gift
somber jasper
1 million faction points would be a good gift
final torrent
Nah. I think two days of enhanced refinery would go a long way. Especially since we have all that new shiny research to work on.
quick needle
Ok, despite what I said earlier here is some event feedback, the current none event is better than domination (that’s right, I’d rather not have an event than a domination event that can’t be completed with no badges or enough faction credits)
tough loom
Get us more badges
deep bobcat
👀
turbid badge
For people who completed research prior to the event actually working correctly. Are we going to get credit for that for the event?
somber depot
Was wondeing the same thing about credit for completing research prior to event since the event was delayed and there wasnt good communication or an announcement to not do that, or blocking that portion.
turbid badge
@prime gulch ^^
tough loom
Halfway done all the research they had better give us credit
buoyant bison
Exactly my thoughts, I started it and done a fair few of the research items. All that for nothing now towards current live events 😩 the research tree IMO shouldn’t have been accessible with events put on hold, it would have surely been known that people would start it
somber depot
Yes we have about 30 players in our alliance that didnt get credit.. some conpleted 50 research before the event.

lament delta
Another screw up by Scopley eh... say it aint so 😂
tough loom
@prime gulch I didn’t get credit for all my research can you please fix
lament delta
Prob because im lowere level, i get faction hunts at lvl 22
idle hazel
@prime gulch <@&509691205798592532> for those who got a headstart on the research....how will that be applied to the event that just popped up?
somber depot
Everyone gets factuon hunts, for battlepass rewards, but the research credit is missing for people that did research ahead from the delayed event.
rare vector
Same issue here, completed research thinking it was meant to be this way, but can’t see Scopely giving anything back, not good for business.
lament delta
I dont have the event that needs research though maybe it because im lvl 22
Just the hostile faction hunt
somber depot
Seems the delivery team is doing agile porgramming but qa team is behind the eight ball and servers are overloaded.. they need some automated scale out/scale in for heavier periods and better QA.
vagrant topaz
Cheers for starting the events just as I head to bed. Will be great trying to rush to get them done tomorrow ... you know cause most people work
cobalt axle
Same question about those of us that started the research and now aren’t getting credit for it in the event. That is a load of crap
vagrant topaz
Oh awesome, don’t get credit for those 10 or so research I’ve done. Even better
lament delta
Yeah that stinks guys/gals about research. Guess not being able to participate in that event makes being smaller a win in this situation. They gotta fix that though
vagrant topaz
Agreed, I have members in my alliance that have completed so the event is useless. Hope scopely does something about that.
somber depot
Why do i keep playing and spending money on this?
tough loom
@prime gulch <@&509691205798592532> a lot of people have completed most of the research we need that applied to the event

Hey. Your badges are in the battlepass. For free.
Aren't you supposed to be doing a victory lap or something?

Says there are race to ops events starting... where are they???

Haha yes I am taking full credit for the badges
But I also want credit for completing 20+ research in the outlaw tree and haven’t gotten the credit for it
turbid badge
I dunno why they didn’t disable that since the held back the events
glass tendon
@prime gulch Yep. Same boat as other....completed LOTS of research that I need awarded back.
neon oasis
BADGES IN EVENT! YES!
tough loom
@prime gulch is this being fixed please provide us with an update on research getting credited or not so we can stop complaining
And yes everyone can thank me for getting badges included
river merlin
Just buy primes
neon oasis
The rewards are actually good in events for once. I really hope they're doable by every level though
tough loom
My campaign of terror has gotten us badges
somber depot
I am not willing to buy prime to complete the event that i would have been half done already.
river merlin
spice thorn
Ummm all of the Outlaw research I have done is not reflecting in the achievement
river merlin
Yes that is intentional
You can only complete it with prime anyway
Theres not enough research to complete the ELITE event
But if you do 1 prime you complete it
Read the news post thorougly
plucky violet
Uh how about you give us retroactive points for the event that you put up. You prematurely put out research then put up a research event? Really Scopely?
timber bloom
Everyone needs to put in a ticket and complain. We lost out on 5 hrs of researches because of a total lack of communication around what would be needed. They should have locked the research tree to keep us from wasting the time and speedups
wooden knoll
The new Battle Pass rewards are based on Base lvl. As it seems all below lvl20 get 2* mats while above get 3*. Now I understand you need to draw the line somewhere, but for me at lvl18 aiming to max out prime research and North Star I don’t need 2* mats, have enough from just refining. I need 3* stuff and now I am not buying those packs as everyone else getting those cheap from their Battle Pass
lone drift
Ok... so let's talk about how the events screw up has hit me.
- I did a bunch of the new research yesterday
- The events showed up late
- I'm going to be short on available research inside of the 2 day window despite doing that research inside of the two days
Assuming I'll have to email support about this one. It's basically not crediting me for the early research because I did it while the event itself was still offline.

@timber bloom
I was literally just typing something similar.
river merlin
The elite research event cant be finished with that research done anyway
It requires a prime
Read the ingame news
somber jasper
Hi. Some of us already did some of the research and we aren't getting credit for it. Anyway we can get credit ?

Starting a research event hours after the most people have already invested a lot into the new research tree... thanks @prime gulch
vagrant topaz

same here with people from my ally
tough loom
Their is also a team event based on research I want the credit in
Plus as f2p now I can’t get to the free tier
turbid badge
@river merlin it’s the progression part of the event, you still get rewards for, obviously you need prime for the other stuff but there are tiers to the event. Look at the event research needed for points. It requires stuff that we already completed because scopley had issues
river merlin
yeah i see that
tough loom
It’s an easy fix if we completed it we need the credit
river merlin
They did screw it by delaying it
But apparently if you have Tons of mats you will be able to complete it without prime
Not like f2p amounts
nocturne solstice
Ok.. This new research tree is so stupid... I've spent all uncommon mats I had i didn't get to the stella research. I've spent more uncommons that i will get with the pack i bought. The worse part, with things that i don't want or need, like plutonium research or useless things for the bb. I already have my bb maxed. Scopely please create add-ons to the game that make people move forward, not sideways. After this event we will have another ship to take care and another system do grind, but everyone focus that is get stronger (with better ships) isn't being accomplished. When you require 2800 unc gas just to tier a ship, another 600 to upgrade a building, you have to provide more that you are giving today... Even if I buy one 100 dollars pack (which is a lot of money for the regular folks out there), its a drop in the bucket. I know that there are whales and they pay your bills, so help out the casual spender and the f2p out there, increasing the payout on the refinery, lowering the timer to 8hrs not 10 and so on.. everyone need uncommons and rares...
turbid badge
Yeah I just want credit for what I already completed is all I’m asking.
lapis fjord
@prime gulch - If a player at ops level 26 advances to ops level 27, will they see the new events as soon as they advance ops levels, Desperate Measures, Roguish Ways? Or no?
upper orchid
@prime gulch we're going to need some massive back credit of advancement on all researched outlaws stuff before you released the event. Otherwise you should kept the research LOCKED until the event started

@prime gulch Good on the solo but what about the alliance event?

raven stratus
tough loom
@zenith compass your welcome we now need more than just myself complaining about the need for badges
zenith compass
I think everybody has been asking for badges for a long time
if they give the chance to get them in each event that is not bad
before there was no way to get them
This allows us to keep progressing
and good they put them in the free rewards not the paid rewards
so everyone can get them
placid crypt
@prime gulch please make sure people who did the advance research get credit. I’ve completed a boat load of research before the event was released but ended up not getting any credit at all. Hurts the solo portion and the alliance portion as well
stable ivy
did you read the last official announcement?
placid crypt
What I’m hoping is full credit for that specific event. Spent a lot of rss, lat and speed ups.
green ibex
Thx for update the event too late , i have no time to do all factions to get points because some have to work 👍🏻
green ibex
And compensation for the research is nice but how about the points for it ! I’m stil at zero 😔 . Just another screw up again ... when can you guys launch an event without problems ?
stable ivy
they have not done the compensation for the research yet.
static gorge
You guys really, really need to get better at communication. "Due to server performance issues we have delayed the release of new events we had scheduled for today." That means no event today, and then you failed to send out a notification that you decided to start it anyhow! 🤬
green ibex
They have ... but our servers has now only 10 hours to get all factions done and I stil have a day work ahead . So how do I get them done and get those points ? Also have no points for the research that was done , only a bad compensation chest 🤣 scopely feckt it up again , like always
@static gorge i agree mate 👍🏻
winged axle
@green ibex they havent
That was a compensation for downtime and other issues,not research stuff
Do you guys even read #⭐-official-announcements .....
green ibex
I did , me overlooked that part , but stil shit job on dropping the event just like that with only a couple of hours left .... 😡
@winged axle

feedback for "A Different Breed" The points per material are way too low. 1 per common and 5 per uncommon just wont make it possible to get the first milestone. need to be like 10 per common and 50 per uncommon
This is as ops 25 with about half the building already done.
cause if i level ops to 26 it wouldn't even do the first milestone, and thats a 15 day build
autumn idol
A different breed is impossible to complete at ops 25. Pls be reasonable about the required points. Im a late comer to the game, i do not know why u are discouraging us new players from getting this ship whereas your older players got it much easier.

@autumn idol @prime gulch sir, can we have a way for new player to acquire vidar and franklin? I recall i got my vidar through the campaign and events. Current way, achieving 10k score with 1-2k uc, is very challenging for new players.
silver crown
Agree, even collecting 50 bps for Vdar is quite challenging. Some Alliance members saw also disappearing event after gone to ops 27. Thanks

@prime gulch is this real this event disapears with completeing Ops 27?
vagrant topaz
I didn't get a rush to ops level 20, or rush to ops level 23, events even though I met the criteria on the official release notes. Are missing events normal for this update?

Where are the burst solo events for ops 40+? Are there going to be burst solo events for 40+? If not, and assuming the Apex Research Medals are rewarded via those events, how does one at 40+ get those medals?
vagrant topaz
I have players in my alliance that completed all the research up to their player level before the events started. So none of their research goes towards the alliance ALB or their personal roguish ways or roguish ways elite milestones. A chest compensation gift isn’t enough. They should get the rewards for their elite milestones and their points should go to our alliance event.

What happens now with the research event!? Any news? Cant see a compensation? @prime gulch
limpid fjord
Hey i still havent got the compensation for researching the outlaw event
sick onyx
I will say, I was all set to buy the battle pass until this Roguish Ways - Elite fiasco. I'm not a big whale or anything, but pushing an event to an ops level where if you started "too early" you become locked out of the top reward through normal gameplay mechanics is low. Having a $99 pack as an "instant win" that a vast majority of people don't know about is even worse.
I appreciate the good in the game, and enjoy playing it, but tactics like this tip over the line for me.
pure hamlet
So how do I race to ops 23 when I’m a already at ops 23?
winged axle
Ah you dont?
Or maybe upgrade any building to lvl23 in your base(that used to work in the past)
pure hamlet
Then why did I get that event?
I guess I’ll try that.
winged axle
🤷♂️ prob best to ask CS

I already have Aeronautics Lab being built from 22 to 23. It’ll be done in about 90 min. If that works I’ll soon find out. If not I’ll submit a ticket.

Good luck

pure hamlet
Ok, I used some speed ups and upgrading the Aeronautics Lab gave me credit for the whole event.
Now, it’s a 5 day event. Will it go away and be replaced tomorrow at the daily event reset?
