After 2 years you guys STILL have not figured out how to release content. I'm going to explain it to you again. Solo leaderboards need to be SAME OPS LEVEL ONLY!!!!!!! This game is not designed where different levels can effectively compete against each other. Fix this or stop running solo leaderboards.
gritty void
Yet again, "Strength in Numbers" is crashing once alliances figure out where the bonus system is
I'm seeing the network speed error when this happens so guessing the client is trying to download too much data as there are so many ships in the system (I'm on high speed broadband, so it ain't my side)
steep ridge
Awwww....are sales down, you little bitches? Trying to pump up some revenue after this shitshow that is the discovery? Get everyone to blow everything on the Harrison event and then run domination. We all see through you. 🖕
gritty void
The pop ups are likely contributing to the problem with Strength in Numbers. They're pointless, annoying and adding to server load
noble thistle
Yep I'm also disappointed in the corporate greed show by running harrison auction then probably 2 days worth of domination if they follow the pattern. They don't realise the amount of players who have left the game because of another certain space mmo recently released that is far from a money grab.
maiden latch
Am I the only one who thinks it is silly that 34's compete against 39's for lat rush?
It should be random groups within 3 to 4 levels of each other.
Sometimes a 34 could be at the top of the group, sometimes the bottom of the grouping, and sometimes in the middle.
wanton patio
Hi there, i read somewhere about random micelium mines with high rate of extraction. Anyone saw them?

Be sure to check the points on the event page to see if the multiplier is active. The toast/notification in-game on the top-center of your screen doesn't include that.

Strength in Numbers is a great stepping stone for a proper PvP event. On my server we have declared the 2 hot zones war zones. compete killing hostiles and players at same time. Please build off of this platform and include a PvP element to it as well as the PvE at the same time. This can be a step in the right direction for bringing quality PvP content through events to the game.
A 1 hour free for all is all you need to satisfy those of us who need more Space Debris in our lives.
<@&509691205798592532> Please pass this on if possible.

Battle pass completed yesterday. Now massive points are accumulating 23k battlepoint tokens.... ranking #14 on solo domination - what will happen to them? [i haven't paid for speeding up the battlepass]. Could there be a database search conducted for similar players and a reward issued? Please don't make it more difficult next month - maybe meet us in the middle ? Only result in extra boredom is others players posting abusive/racist messages in our galaxy chat. Maybe run a PvP gauntlet event so players can burn off steam and earn results? Not just for the whales/serious spenders this time
Other feedback.... "mining" monday and also context is for kings? could I have more miners? So many players on our server have 1/2x dvors. No chance of them going overcap. I've been mining a latinum node since 1800 BST 28/09.... finished work at 2130... got 2 x g3 nodes - finally 70k pts away from completing the daily event
tribal ravine
curious how other servers are doing in burst events.. posted our leaderboard... #747489824163758110
vagrant topaz
not bothered with the event here ⚛️ 🥔
@tribal ravine the burst events don't appear for me when they're running... still need constant clearing of the localisation data for them to appear - least we have some kind of warning. Very unhelpful when the trigger event shows as "Retrieving"
curious how other servers are doing in burst events.. posted our leaderboard... #747489824163758110
@tribal ravine would be lovely to find an honest overview from other servers

Maybe with a gauntlet event. Wouldn't it be lovely if the "Head of Doom" [yes the person who gives you unobtainable missions or tells you the server is about to undergo maintainence] was the person to invite you to possibly attend a guantlet? Or some extra additional reward event?
toxic sinew
I just had to convince an alliance member to give it a few days instead of quitting. The discovery events had turned it too much into work for him.
vagrant topaz
@toxic sinew so many players are leaving
i guess it'll make their server mergers easier 🙈
lunar ginkgo
Strength in Numbers - in particular the double zones, is too laggy. I have to target one thing multiple times before it works. Sometimes someone the next spawn over can fly over and hit the target, even when i have already targeted them twice.. I watch others doing the same bunny hopping.
worldly umbra
Not sure how it's like on other servers but Context is for Kings LBs are kinda dead. I guess people aren't too keen on getting 3-star explorer parts or a 3rd scrotum-head avatar; which you can only get once.
Also Mycelium Spores don't get spent which makes mining them rather redundant.
gritty void
And Server 159 shat the bed again during Strength in Numbers...

In General a bad idea. Myl mining event is the most stupid I ve ever seen within an online game. Please do not longer steal time from your players generate instead some fun features 😉

@vagrant topaz maybe the do a hidden bonus, I.e. you completed battle pass everyday even after you finished so you get “x” reward

Auction events need to be broken down even more to more competitive ops lvls.

Context is for kings sucks. Couldn't you at least have given out discovery parts? Trit and bs parts aren't really useful.

Todays event is during us presidential debate could you shift events time as not to overlap?

tardy jolt
<@&509690795536941056> Sorry for the tag, but I don't think its intentional that packs you can buy in store immediately count towards the event as points! The Context is for Kings event rewards players who buy the refined mycelium jump pack from the store with a significant amount of points. This way a player/alliance can actually buy their way to the top leaving the average player behind. Please look into this and preferably, fix it.
viscid phoenix
It’s definitely intentional.
winged axle
It is

Regarding Daily Events, specifically the ranked ones. Level 30 players are in the same tier as 39 and 40’s for at least the Officer XP events and Station events. It’s impossible for a 30/31 to come in top 10 (let alone top 3).
They really need to be split up more.
restive trout
Can someone from Scopely tell me how it's possible to only score 2 points after getting all 3 milestones?
plain compass
was surprised to see jelly event with 36s competing with 41s is this something new or that previously the 39+ being few all had the jelly and were not bothering competing.
rain swan
Outlay. I had a few minute delay with all my points registering.
short willow
at 36 you start getting jelly bps in armada chests, so it owuld make sence at 36 to get the event to obtain as well. Even though it is a 39 ship. Scopely hopeing it forces you to push 39 quicker 🙂
@plain compass
plain compass
Well at 36s puts a brake on spending uc. Starting to pile them up for the jelly event. If there was more jelly bp dropping from the event (rush to 38 was a good one) then yes would push a lot of players to rush to 38 39s. I see this event auction a real wall to move forward. I really hope scopely finds a fair alternative to have more players unlocking this ship
On our server #1 ranking standing above 12m points insane
rose cloak
Anyone else not getting credit for Anomalous Phenomena if you make a kill in the first ~60 seconds?
And no it's not delayed, it's straight up skipping the points
marble elbow
I had that happen 3 times. During the event a week ago i only got 2 points during the first Anomalous Phenomena Event i did that day. I put in a ticket, provided screenshots of the points from that hourly event and showed how it says i completed it but only got 2 points. Now its been a week and customer service still wants me to jump through more hoops. Now the want a screenshot of the event after it was over to show my total points for the event, from a week ago. How would i even get that unless i went back in time. What would it matter to show them i had 17 points. Then they would want screenshots of each hourly event to prove how it added up to 17. This is all over a worthless point a week late. Why not just award the point based off the screenshots and move on. Why are they trying to turn into Matlock over something that doesnt even matter at this point.
frail agate
Anomalous Phenomena event has caused server 146 to be so laggy again. Mines still occupied when the ship is clearly elsewhere, Borg systems spawn points freezing, errors with ships warping etc..
nimble dragon
Very tedious event with paltry rewards for the effort required. Thankfully this almost done.
peak spire
The time bound event is not good as we play in our free te only
The gameplay shouldn't be time bound as we have to do our daily work too
valid oasis
Thank goodness my alliance does not make Chaotic Space mandatory. Its the first event they have actually said we didn't have to do. Nobody wants to log in every hour to do an event. Please rethink the Discovery events because this is the worst event you have come up with to date.
viscid phoenix
@valid oasis let me tell you a story about a Borg mega cube event...
vagrant topaz
Please Reward Modulators in Swarm Events.
It’s close to impossible to make ur Franky T9. It’s T8 now and needs 12M to become T9. That means I have to grind 24.000 level 32 swarm enemies. How long should it take ? 3 years ? ....
Even Franklins strength should be reworked at T9. Just pointless to hunt level 35 enemies if u only can take 8 of them ... instand of unlimited 32 ships.
viscid phoenix
You need a max Franklin and max swarm research to kill the 35’s more easily @vagrant topaz

Hi Scopely its me. Question 5 million and 3. Wanted to ask if the Discovery refinery could be set to give a minimum guarantee. I dont really think it makes sense to open 6 chests and only pull 19 recruit tokens. Please buff this up as after all those event runs its a downer to get such a weak reward.
Also, please rerun that race through anomaly space again. I missed top milestone by 4 seconds and was hoping to get another chance at it. Its the one where you kill 1 hostile or mine 1 mycelium then jump

Where’s my Military Supremacy event?!? Most of my alliance members on my same lv have it.... why not me?
@rancid portal it’s “dynamic per individual based on missions complete and level” or so support told me, I haven’t had the event in months
rancid portal
I don’t understand that... am I above or below the requirements to get it?
Feeling a bit left out.
...and why did I get kicked from event-chat for asking the same question?
potent bough
@rancid portal no idea, because my wife and I compared our accounts and she got the event and I didn’t, others at my level did (wife was only a level down at the time), others above me got it. And I do every mission I get, so either I did too much or the system is glitched or their logic is wrong, me thinks one of the latter.
rancid portal
I’ve submitted a ticket and thinking twice about my next pack purchases until I find out why I’m excluded.
Very uncool to exclude some from an event without defining the parameters of such

Since a week, this is where my ships are. When this 3 days shield ends I will decide if I put up a 3 days or a 7 days. Depending on events. I stopped doing dailies. Just refining the mats that I have accumulated.
That is my feedback on anomalies event.
And I am skipping the monthly elite chest too. Or any other pack for what matters.
river merlin
You shouldve stopped buying the monthly back when you were a 35 ish its worthless past that
sharp token
@river merlin that depends on how you look at it, the pack itself gives you more than a regular pack, parsteel especially, not even counting the daily amount

I keep hearing about 3 min warning on anomaly but my warning are always 90 +/- 10 sec

@manic estuary cleared the localisation data in game?

@vagrant topaz at lvl 40+ you need several packs to make any progress. Alternatively 40-41 can be done in 4-5 months (optimistic)
vagrant topaz
Why you scopely allways start a maintenance when the lat event is runing? Why you do that? You have 6 other days in the week but no you do it in the lat event, and after the maintenance coming allways the same player first online and kill all opc ships. When you stop mining before the maintenance start you lost a lot of places in the lat ranking...
Its sabotage from your own events, you want kidding us?!

Dear scopely, if you say no events today (like last time) can you actually mean it (unlike last time)? I'd rather not come back in 6 hours to discover the "non-events" started 3 hours later.

Why can’t you group event dailies like you do faction hunt (when not part of event arc) or the 3-4 dailies never part of the arc. $copely had a reasonable idea to organize and then per usual only half implements it.

So all the new Discovery research requires Spore Drive Components. When most of us have spent all that we had upgrading the Discovery, cuz as far as I can recall, you gave us zero notice that we should save them up. And not a single new event provides us with any more! Prob have to wait until day 3 on the Battle Pass to get some and it won’t pay for much. C’mon Scopely! Give us a freakin’ break! 😡😡

The release notes for this update stated that it had been made easier for ALL players to complete, no one on the 163 server had problems completing it and then you give us an event where only players with 1m+ ships can complete... yeah ok scopely im not gonna repair my kumari 35 times for those utterly crap rewards.... i will not be compleating this event

If you are referring to the Separatist event, you should still be earning points for the bosses even if you loose.

Yes BUT thats only 1m at a time, i need 36M... it will cost more to repair than is worth for the event, its a load of blox
tribal ravine
bosses should be 3.5m at a time Ihad to do 72M and in the time I read your complaint above, figured out my event showed, and now .. I'm done .. now earning extra damage point for the other event
if you scan them they read 3m hull so thats 3m damage points
supple palm
Yeah i only have a 400k kumari
tribal ravine
pike moreau chen? otherwise cadet uhuru, cadet mccoy, chen in Paraleon .. for combat triangle in your favor also..
it likely will cost less speedups and more time if you go to the next system down in power, Rada Ban[22]
but there be sure to subst tlaan for chen
if your valklas is of any use its combat triangle there
supple palm
The 22s arnt a problem, its the sheer amount i would need to kill, i have a life outside the game and 4 kids (one has just poured milk over my xbox one s) i dont have the time that it would take to do that sort of event, it was fine before there "fix"
tribal ravine
I got four of my own so I can relate. as a lvl32 with 'just barely over' 1m bortas and maxed chen i knew the next time it came around it'd be easy but dang that was a blink-and-done event .. so the lesson here is the lower levels are not seeing the "fix" benefitting them positively ..
supple palm
Nope, 163 is lit up like a Christmas tree on global chat with complaints, most of the server is between 22 to 28, if your lvl 24 or below its only 415k in points needed 25 to 28 no chance 29 up maybe
So below 25 and above 28 ur ok, if ur in between dont even bother lol
chrome dust
My Kumari at 25 could kill bosses without a ton of trouble at 25. Even still you are better off running a burning crew on something like the franklin and hitting bosses you’ll max the event with little cost in resources
supple palm
The bosses are over 2m... unless you had had an absolute maxed out ship and all research completed theres no way, im waiting on my mayflower to finish building
chrome dust
Yeah mine was tier 9 and I used pike Moreau and Chen
Again it’s cheaper to use a burning crew on the franklin and hit them
You’ll score way more points
At 26-27 I used the legionary and think I averaged around 26-27 kills a run made quick work of them
Now I got a Bortas so it was real easy
Or don’t do it the easy way and smash a bunch of ships trying to do it, either is fine
supple palm
Lol you where either very patient, very lucky or spent money, im none of the above, im T6 so im just not going to do the event, my franklin only got me 2k points so thats well out of the question
subtle ginkgo
As has been mentioned, the disparity on the separatists event is stunning. A level 24 needs just 380k points but level 25 needs 36.75million. Yeah, I get that you only need to do damage, but that still means that at an average of around 2mil points per death, I still have to die around 20 times and spend 1.6mil in trit and 280k in dil plus 50hrs of repair speeds to get the milestones.
tribal ravine
just a heads up your mayflower will be less powerful than your valklas until its 50k or 100k stronger than the valklas .. that was my experience

Nothing better than sending my t2 disco to get blowed up more than several times. thx scopless.
short willow
I am showing a 4 shot in quick succession of why this event should not be in the battle pass. I get it, anyone can get the points over time to get it done. What is at issue, is how many ships will be in these zones trying to complete this event. Not everyone can play all day, this event will now make it very hard for players to even get the Daily Quests done, due to having to sit in a zone for hours trying to finish an event for the Battle Pass.
This event should not be considered for the Battle Pass in the future.. It was not very well thought out. I get you can skip a few days and still finish the Battle Pass. That is not the point. The battle Pass events should be something similar to what has already been implemented, it coincides with most folks daily routines already. Today's roll out with this Event being the Showcase for the battle pass has nothing to do with the New Content at all. It could have been much better.

Yes scopely is completely nuts. I am lvl25 and I have the same Problems. 850 ship's killing as the 2,5m bosses are simply not doable at that level. Even if you crash your ships, not a lot of points as damage I'm doing is minimal. Scopely really needs to balance those events

The 1st discovery event is way overtuned. At lvl 27 ops I need 35million points to reach tier 4 rewards. At lvl 24 ops my allies need 380k points.
The highest ships I can kill are elite lvl 22 separatists for 40k points per kill. its over 350 ship kills to hit max rank for rewards. Lvl 27 is a real sore point as you can't kill the boss ships with 2.5million power.
Can the tuning at this level please be reviewed

@rain oar thankfully we are not alone, many on my server cannot complete this mission because of this

You are really not normal anymore. Now I have to kill boss seperatists with a Kumari lvl26 (Kumari 455k, Boss seperatist = 2,4 Million strengh, find the error and good morning), otherwise I won't make the seperatist event because 36 million points is way too much.
With lvl17-22 seperatists you need 2-3hours hardcore grinding + the daily level up from the vidar, franklin, mining dailys, faction dailys, other events and so on.
Are we your experiment rabbits? Are you really serious?
atomic fossil
Are you kidding me with the pvp systems being different for different levels?
I've been attacked twice and neither part got points but they both claimed it was the right system for them.
potent bough
@minor elk I’m Ops 27 and need 37M points, I’m hoping you had a typo or they aren’t being even more dynamic and basing the points on something else.
ebon pollen
This BP event is absolutely retarded. Wont being buying a BP this round given the insane farming req's and amount of people in the zones. Cant get ships fast enough and takes wayyyy to long.
marble crest
This battle pass event is the absolute worst. I thought I couldn’t hate anything as much as the flash events but you’ve proven me wrong. 23 attacks on bosses and I’m halfway to the first milestone.
About to give up
dense girder
I have to say a monthly that is mostly pvp and flash events is basically the most unpleaant thing I've seen so far
I guess the battle pass will be fine, but I'm going to end up just not getting most of the other rewards
spice ravine
@prime gulch <@&509691611903426561> Almost all players on Lv25 + are unable to score points for the battle pass. According to your own statements, the combat passpoints should be easier to reach, with less effort than before, but the exact opposite is the case and completely independent of the player level as it seems. If you care about your players, you should make improvements as soon as possible and live up to your own statements. Kind regards Powerman

Pvp suuuuuuuuudks!!!!! Especially if you are on the low side of the bracket. It's great if you're in the high side. 🖕

Discovery Part 2 - Lvl28 - signal interrupted takes you to Obilent to defeat a Klingon Invader except there are none!!!
@woven gale I got the same problem... where are they?
onyx sage
kill the dots in the system it takes you to
i think they are lvl 18 ceptors, you'll kill 2 in a row I think
vast atlas
If you are having issues with Signal Interrupted Part2 - The mission takes you to Oblient. Kill any hostile in the system for credit. We have raised the confusing nature of the mission to Scopely
@past fossil ah! And here’s the answer. Doh!
i think they are lvl 18 ceptors, you'll kill 2 in a row I think
@onyx sage thanks!
onyx sage
here's a good question, with the stella pvp event, will the stella be available for unlock/purchase for people who hadn't obtained it previously?
obtuse marlin
Definitely not worth buying a battle pass if you are level 22-28, far too difficult at time consuming.
bronze schooner
Is the mission Signal Interupted broken, no klingon invader there.
manic estuary
Just kill a couple of hostiles in that system
winged wedge
Are you joking at setting it that high and only giving 3pts per kill?
river merlin
Its damage dude read
warm mortar
It's 3 points per damage point. A full health 26 Boss gives you 10.5 Mill points. Kill 5, event done.

The 40+ mission scaling is just insane! Best I've got is a T3 ISS Jellyfish and it only scratched the shields. Making it challenging is one thing, impossible another. Won’t be buying anything throughout these arcs. <@&509690795536941056>. Please use your ways to bring this feedback to Scopely <@&509691205798592532> @warped sierra

mb you can also give the feedback about daily events? Ship upgrade events are changed at ops40 to spend 4g parts. But I'm almost f2p and my first 4g ship will be at shipyard 41, I cannot participate till that
@warped sierra

I regret almost every day going to Ops40. In the beginning because of the event rewards as @severe oyster mentioned and now the mission scaling on top of that.
severe oyster
@dark sonnet I regret that I postponed my upgrade to ops40 🤣
Great improvement for f2p!
There not much downsides.
And these daily ships event is the only one cannot be solved
dark sonnet
Depends on what you’re going for ofc @severe oyster. Some things are better at 40 but not enough to make me feel rewarded for progressing this far.
somber hinge
i won 2 fights with disc+pike. what should give me 12 points + 1 for loose. why do i have still 10?
grand perch
Does not seem fair to have 36.75m as a target in "Separatist Hunt - BP Event" for 25lvl when Kumari is the top ship you may have. Takes ages to grind 22lvl separatists or lots of speed ups if you fight 26lvl bosses.
real nebula
4 hours of suicide to separatist bosses and I'm not even to tier 2 prize. How is this is less time consuming than the previous event schemes? Oh right i can always kill 2000 of the regular elites. 🙄. First time in 9 months I've thought about quitting.
river merlin
You just dont know how to play the game
Theres way more other stuff to quit the game over. separatist is easy
tame dragon
Chatting with some alliance mates it seems that the separatist event requires 380K to max at lvl 24 and 36.75M to max at lvl 25
Is a nearly 100 fold increase in difficulty intended?
rapid ember
The jump from level 24 to level 25 is insane. How on Earth can I get 36.74M done?! All I have is a Kumari at 375k?! This can't be what you intended. Unless you intended us to have to pay to complete the battlepass.
Agreeing with basically 80% of the event feedback from today as I read above.
river merlin
No
tame dragon
I'm 25 and I agree. My Kumari got 1 million in one go for 3 hour repair. I'm not using 100 hours of repairs
river merlin
Yall just dont know how to do separatists because you are new
tame dragon
Especially when my 24 mate killed 8 22s in 5 minutes
You've ignored the premise of the issue. Why do the requirements jump by almost 100 times between 24 and 25?
rapid ember
@tame dragon Exactly. Suddenly I'm level 25 and I need to suck up to a 30+ level player?
Makes no sense for it to jump 100 times as StringyCheese says.
river merlin
Oh my lord
loud fossil
The separatist event is rubbish. Level 25 here, been blowing up ships for about 10 hours and have only just reached first BP milestone at 5.7mil! How the hell am I supposed to get to 37mil?!!!
river merlin
You dont know how to work with your teammates?
To work together?
To complete stuff
Isnt that like the point of alliances
If you all target the same separatist and hit it non stop youll be done in less then 20 minutes
If you use repair speed ups and work together like we did 1 year ago
rapid ember
Glad licking the boots of your highest level players works for you @river merlin I personally would prefer it if the game had all player types in mind. This should be able to be soloed. That is our point.
rapid ember
Not sure what you call begging for help from player who could care less you exist.
meager cave
Guess it depends on how much damage you can do with your Kumari and which crew you have at your disposal. At lvl26 I can take out 1 separatist boss with Pike crew and a 400k Kumari. Done that 4 times, event done. Drains a bit on your repair speed ups, but you should have plenty of those if you do faction hostile dailies.
rapid ember
@meager cave 100% depends on those crew. Somehow I have been super unlucky with the recruit chests. I have a lot of 15th level blues but that's it.
meager cave
I think I got ~4M points with the cadet crew. Takes more than twice as many attempts, but should still be doable. And although you don't get that many discovery recruit tokens, the odds of getting Pike are way better than with the normal ultra recruits 🙂
rapid ember
@meager cave For sure on the Discovery recruits. I think it's where most of my 65 pike shards are from. LOL
meager cave
@rapid ember Almost there 😄
rapid ember
@meager cave One day! 😂 Thanks for the advice.
grand perch
@meager cave 2.38m boss with 400k Kumari in one go...haven't seen it...I'm surprised.
meager cave
@grand perch Well, technically it wasn't in one go 😉 I didn't destroy it, but also didn't die. So I could kill it second try and live to brag about it 😛
lean stone
A bit too tough for a level 40 mission????
My jelly is 4.5 mil.... this needs a really big ship
tribal ravine
if your needing to kill for points and you have pike moreau chen kill boss in parleon, just helped a teammate in the mid 20s actually try that, sometimes you don't kill them but you don't die so hit it again, after 100 rounds battle stops
using Kumari of course
pliant axle
using Kumari of course
@tribal ravine why specifically kumari?
meager cave
Because it's the best low/mid twenties battleship and Pareleon has explorers. If you have a better battleship, obviously use that
pliant axle
oh yeah okay that makes sense then :p
i know kumari has extra bonus against explorers so i wondered if it made it OP in this situation
oh indeed my bortas is doing real great with pike/moreau/chen, way better than my d3 in Constina
atomic fossil
Any response on event feedback for the different disc pvp systems? Kinda ruins the spirit of it when doing missions with a battleship bc your disc is getting killed for no points.
pliant axle
then they come and tell you battleships are not covered by roe, right? 😅
atomic fossil
Lol yes, I suppose they could bc I'd be floating while reading the ditribe of a mission message.
Guess it on par with being attacked by faction hostile that pops up an inch away from my mission point. Tap tap tap tap thru that shpeal. Guess I didn't need to understand the storyline, anyway. ¯_(ツ)_/¯ lol
pliant axle
yeah you can always read it later in the mission log 😂
atomic fossil
Yeah, a little light reading when I'm not killing something. Lol

Anyone NOT receiving crew rewards on discovery PvP?
spice kestrel
what the hell are they thinking about? round 1 discovery. have a discovery available on the hour every hour. AND have enough resources and speed ups to fix it 3/4 times for 2 of every 3. Discovery rnd 2. have at least 2 ship available for pull through missions. when you only have 3 drydocks not likely. then you have the "but who's counting" the event points are far enough away I need to use cadet scotty to get there, and then get 2-4 points per visit. then need the resourses to repair and send back out. unsustainable so I have quit that too. then it is the "separatist hunt" an hour of hunting elites and I still didnt make enough to hit the first mark. then attempted the bosses averaging .9-.75M with a full rebuild after each attempt (and this is supposed to make BP events easier for low lvl players). its a joke
fading wing
I agree, I'm coming up on 1000 elites killed, along with 15 attempts on bosses and I haven't hit the second milestone yet.
warped sierra
the seperatist event is very very difficuult for lower level players, BUT there's been a tonof info handed out about how to play this event. rev has a video and we've been on the discords trying to help. you need to use burning on a cheap ship. use nero if you can, if you have him, but if not, arix will also burn (30% chance) so throw him on a fortunate and go slam into the level 26 bosses.
it's a slow road, but when he procs you'll get a ton of points, AND it's next to free cause repairs are nothing on a fortunate. try it. it will work. promise.
@fading wing @spice kestrel
tribal ravine
I talked a lower level player through using cap pike, moreau, chen .. kumrai can last more than 100 rounds of combat but boss is almost dead, then hit it again and presto 3.5m hull damage x 3 points per damage = 10.5m points per death, doesn't take long to complete the event .. but ya gotta try
lvl22 is 14k hull x 3 = 42k points per kill ... sure you can kill them all day long .. but who wants to kill just shy of 1000 of them to get to the end of 30m points?
spice kestrel
@tribal ravine great if you have pike and moreau
tribal ravine
pitstop13 the next best crew ought to be cadet uhura, cadet mccoy, chen for parleaon and combat triangle with kumari
spice kestrel
yep and get .75M per rebuild
tribal ravine
I'll see what my kumari does with that. when I loaded pmc it mimiced the lvl25 player I was helping.
spice kestrel
hay Im a lvl 26.... wait one I have been using Taall will try the chen next
tribal ravine
chen in parleon is gonna change your reality a wee bit 😉
i noted my vidar is stronger than my kumari, wonder if its possible to have a stronger vidar as a lvl25-27 player than kumari .. random thought
spice kestrel
just built Mayflower as my first faction ship
tribal ravine
it'll be weaker than your valklas till about tier 3 if I recall correctly
spice kestrel
ohhhh yhea
tribal ravine
as seen by using cadet uhura, cadet mccoy, tlaan to atttack swarm .. I used valklas at first when I bumped to ops28 .. wasn't ready with the franklin to hit lvl28 swarm .. finaly mf took over .. then franklin ..
spice kestrel
I quit the game for a long while. came back during furlough so I have missed a load of events (and ships) so no Franklin for me
tribal ravine
when you can get the bp in an event store it will save you a ton on repair costs doing swarm dailies.. I parked myself in wolf last lat rush of my ops31 days .. and used mf to do 10x swarm32 .. took 4 trips ..
spice kestrel
👍
tribal ravine
looks like I can only kill about 60% of a boss with cadet uhura, cadet mccoy, chen (as ops32) .. gonna try cadet uhura, moreau, chen just incase that does better .. but still .. if you take a 3.5m hull and get 60% of that and then multiply your points by 3 (as the event does) you end up with over 6m points per kumari life, if you get similar results, should take 5 trips and you're done
spice kestrel
just ran my kumari (uhura, bones cadets and chen) for just shy of 2M
tribal ravine
thats presuming you have no one on your alliance in a similar boat and don't work together to kill each others leftovers to take advantage of that stripped shield
spice kestrel
I ran a burn crew fortunate right at it straight after....got less for that then when I ran it at a full shielded one
tribal ravine
the event gives points for damaging hull straight away. so whatever hull is left when you kill it is what you get points for.
oh and btw the pop up notification tells you the hull count you killed, not the points you get, you either mentally multiply by 3 or check the event after
spice kestrel
I am checking the event after
tribal ravine
cadet mccoy is better than moreau in my test scenario ymmv
hope this helps you make meaningful progress, gotta go for a bit, good luck

rain oar
Hey Scopely. You actually going to re-tune the mission hostile in “Patience is a virtue”? Level 40-45 players have no chance of defeating it to progress through the mission chain and rest of the Arc
novel totem
Short version: New flash events are even worse then the old ones.
Why:
- Critical systems have hostiles from 31 to 39 in the same system. as a lvl 33 it's a game of chance who gets the 31 spawn. Higher hostiles can't be killed by my ships.
- New events shoul be less time consuming, thus reachig gold twice eliminates the need to participate - well except for SLB that counts every medal earned... GG

Have to hand it to you scopely. I had thought you guys couldn’t make worse events then the last arc. Somehow you managed to dredge lower though 👏 👏 👏. Even better you aren’t giving out rewards for the arc point events and only handing out arc points now. So you also somehow managed to go cheap while forcing us to pay for the petty amount of rss you were handing out to begin with.
left marlin
Plz for goodness sake, STOP funneling us all to the same system to farm reds for an Event when spawn rates are and always have been so terribly low!! C’mon!! We been griping about this for years now!!
And why make a Leaderboard for the Event too?! It just makes at worse!
Just leave it with a Solo MS so that once we’re done we can leave it alone so others can come in and finish theirs
silver eagle
terrible event:
none really goes to OTHER SYSTEMS all wanna go to where it gives most points, and how many of those systems?! only 2 , how many in server players? at least 1k minimal that play quiet actively, what we have in the systems? few spawn points, and extremly slow spawn rate, which makes players to bunch up like 10 per spawn, there is no competitive gameplay in this, its like treating us like sheep, also the "flash" event concept was ok on previous one, and all had anought room and space to do something, but not in the new ones, also the timing in mid hour is silly and not comfortable at all!
you just took all what we hated in many events into one and expect us to chew it?! also we are human beings with life work etc, we want to play and relax!!!!! not to feel like on 2nd job by playing, to do everything dailies, hostiles,swarms,eclipse,borgs, mining,armadas, i say that as player that actualy can play this from morning to night due to my work that allows me, but even i start to feel its getting too much, to do EVERYTHING in one gaming day you need to spend minimal 8 hours a day, you keep biring new stuff, and just throw bunch of events on us, THERE IS NO MORE TIME TO DO IT ALL ANYMORE! let us just relax and enjoy the game as most come after work to do just that and no to be in tenssions something he didnt finished, or did too few and disapoint his alliance members......
if keep throw so much at us to things per day and for prolonged time you will kill your own game, people will leave beacuse they will see they acnt put anymore time that you expect us to have

I normally don’t post here - just read and stay up to date - buuut Scopley really needs to know that the latest Discovery burst events SUCK!! Seems apparent that they’re trying to encourage spawn point pile-up’s, event frustration, and therefore “unintended” pvp in the incredibly narrow and limited event spaces. Only three event cycles have passed since change-over today and I’ve already had enough - no more participation....(and I have the ships and power to destroy most folks in the space, so it’s not that I’m getting a beating, just that I am sick of the continued poor thought process in design - which I understand is par for the course here).. Yeah, they SUCK that bad.... 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼
restive kraken
To be honest I was expecting the our massive feedback yesterday would make Scopely react and apologize for making impossible event at least for players in the middle range, but nothing ...
That tells me that either they're not reading or they don't care, just want to force people to go shopping. From my part I'm just simply ignoring the events which is very sad
onyx sage
if you're in the middle range, scopely sees these events as a motivator for you to get off your ass to spend more money to get in the next bracket. it's science

Right. 🤑

@prime gulch expand the flash event on all new systems. it's to crowded in only 2 or 3 systems.

Burst event only show prior to it starting, once it started then it disappears. Spending more time restarting then playing and still no event. This is the same issue as the burst events on last arc

@cold oar some of the events are okay and actually tie into the dailies some and the mission storyline is semi-okay

It's also forcing the use of a highly frustratingly sub-par ship. Doesn't add any element of excitement.

@prime gulch Vulcan hello event is only giving points in the "critical" systems. No points awarded in the other 6 systems.... It says 3 systems give "extra". So the other 6 systems should give at least some points?
upbeat carbon
Scopely, the separatist hunt event is absurd and not reasonably completable, at least not at level 29. I have to kill over 1,300 separatist elites?!? How?!?
or: the only way to complete this stupid event: suicide my battleship 20 times onto the boss and pay an enormous repair bill.
the math: over 55M points needed. A separatist elite is worth 43,200. LOL
uncut sentinel
@upbeat carbon what ship are you using?
upbeat carbon
i dont think it really matters, because its based on damage, and a kill is max damage
if you are farming anyway and not suiciding into boss, the ship does matter if you are throwing away ships
yep, just tested it, whether i use a discovery or my strongest ship, a kill is a kill and a seperatist elite is still worth 43,200, when i need over 55M
vale plume
What an unbelievable stupid idea to create an event where only 5 players of the top-group (Lvl40+) can reach the system at all (warp 120) 😡😡😡
Even theoretically Lvl 40 and 41 players cannot participate, since it needs a G4-faction-battleship to go there, which you cannot build before Lvl 42.
muted wren
when u think they cant fk up more... and then they release the next kind of bullshit events... its like they explicitly hiring ppl to find a way to annoy the fk out of the community...

i think they just straight-up failed to test the separatist event for the high 20's. maybe its tuned fine for low levels and high levels, but at level 29 it is broken and infuriating.

"tuned fine for low lvls" 200 ships on 7 spawn fighting over hostiles... this is so far off from "tuned fine"... i have no words for this

the flash event is fine. i have no problems at all getting my medal within 8 minutes. the separatist hunt event is not completable without suiciding over a dozen times

Made these events lamer than the last. Honestly can’t spend money on this. Only do one event out of six because of how bad it is. This is not fun anymore. Scrap the whole discovery and start over. I go into systems can see ships or anything unless I reboot. Made the PVP events for only pay to play people. Not honest way to build up your discovery. Separatist event designed for only 40 plus players. I saw some 37s survive. Phillippa events not even achievable. The game still crashes when you are in the middle of something. This is the short list. I know this game is for only pay to play people. Some of us are hardworking people cannot afford this. Unfortunately for you more players are quitting because you broke something that was good.
pastel robin
Just wanted to give some feedback on the Separatist Hunt event.
Looking at the scores for yesterday’s and today’s event makes me glad for the 27s. 3.6M is more palatable then 36M. However, from 30s alliance members I hear they still have 55M damage to do. Plz make those more reasonable? Thx
rain oar
Would be nice to be compensated for the 30 destroyed ships trying to kill that monster munch ship in mission chain
jaunty pilot
Hey, Scopely another hunt for the separatist hunt for over 55m for level 30. Well, a level 18 can do it amount under an hour at 120k. If they only have the jellyfish in top-level and tier. That takes close to two months at the top level tier to get the ship build at. The early am of est it took me eight hours to get past the second tier18.37m. with three ships under or close to 300,000 strength at the end. I am not wasting 12 to 14 hours of my time doing this waste of time. Plus other game actions besides alliance work. Free to pray .. not free to play. Plus on top of all that parsteel empty speedups then small amounts of dilithium. Then all them PVE boxes that don't even help. Someone just has to stop testing this crap on a blank account with the top ships and start doing it with all different strengths of ships. It is great with account that fresh and works. It a problem when it, not tested in the long-stress abused account. Maybe start selecting what ship is set for what points if you're going to have these high-level points. There better be makeup events for this sad event of wasted time.

There were way too many variables in the last flash event. Find the system. Kill hostiles. Or run an armada. The nature of this event is speed and I had to go back and forth between the event details and the various systems to see which was manageable while also changing out the ships. I’m happy the Discovery can get to the lvl 28 systems now but it is seriously underpowered. It needs a percentage boost against anomaly aliens like the Franklin against swarm and Vidar against Borg.

Good amount of milestones in the SMS, thank you very much for listening and lowering!!!Event can be completed in two hours compared to the other one that required 5 hours!
And you added a SLB for the hardcore gamers who want more game time. Probably they won’t like the 5 days length but you can change it to 2-3 days with a break in the middle to avoid being too repetitive.
I love the yellow coating that added to the flags, are helping a lot players to figure what to do. If this becomes a routine (flag to indicate an event in a system), players will become used to and events will seem easier.
I recommend expanding the flag system, for example, PvP should have been advertised with a specific flag for PvP

This new flash event is the stupidest event. When you have 50 players fighting tooth and nail for a hostile to get points for a medal there is something wrong. Need more areas or hostiles need to regenerate faster

Thanks for lowering milestone target of "Separatist Hunt - BP Event" for 25lvl (3.67M). 370k Kumari with hostile crew (Chen + Pike + Moreau) finishes it in 1 boss hit (boss shield was depleted before the hit). Much better experience in comparison with yesterday (36.75M) when I had to spend several hours killing 22lvl separatists and hitting the bosses multiple times.

The flash event will start with a red small box that will have a number one. it will be on the events icon. It stay at the finsh events spot before it starts. When you check it out the one number will be gone. Until the event starts and move to the working events space. The number one might show up again.

This is even worse than the last flash events... and I did not think that possible. Kudos
vagrant topaz
The new flash event are much better then the anomali event from Discovery 1. The start time from 6:30pm is better then 6pm. But 5 Days is a little bit to long, i think 2-3 days is enough competition, i hope you change that a little bit, thanks. **But now we need more speed ups then we get from all events and dailys, that give the next bottleneck!
**
Finally you give us a little more G3 material, we are always empty, thanks for that. Its not much but at least a beginning in the right direction.
At first I thought our main problem would be dilithium, but it's more tritanium because we need so much for the shipbuilding.
Now it would be nice if you adjust the rewards at normal NPC. What does an OPS26+ player want with g2 material and Talla Bps? 90% from the NPC rewards are crap for high level player! Okay we need a little bit to scrap Tallas, Turas, Phindras and Envoys but its too much g2 mats and g2 ship rewards for high lvl player.
Maybe you leave these rewards in the lower systems, then everybody knows where to farm such things and you change the rewards in the higher NPC chests.

Anyone finding themselves hurting for repair speedups? Between the PvP event the other day and all these burst events against strong hostiles I've burnt through months worth of them (even spent all the 3m ones at this stage!)

Is there a minimum damage required for the "Vulcan hello" missions? I sent a low level Horizon that went 5 rounds with one of the battleships during the event and, while it died, it dealt about 5k worth of damage (after reported mitigation) during the fight. By my reading of the event this should have scored but it didn't register?
vagrant topaz
I love that you’ve gone to all this trouble to make it so you can’t participate. No notifications, no systems marked, restart the game, systems marked, jump to one of the marked systems and have no hostiles spawn for 10 minutes. Round of applause for that. Exceptional work.

You have to give us more speed ups than rewards, you can't ask everyone to repair their ships with latinum!
The new disco events want a lot of speed ups. Now the most player lost his speed ups supplies.

This feels like a classic bait and switch here. Yes we’re getting slightly more rewards from Battle Pass MSs than before. But before, Events that gave Battle Pass pts also usually gave some refined mats as well. Now these Events only reward Battle Pass pts. So it feels like we’re getting the same amount of refined mats or even less than before. Plz add back refined mat rewards to Battle Pass Events

Why the heck is the SLB 5 days long... thats insane for these kind of rewards

@left marlin it’s defiantly a bait and switch. I was finally able to grind out some faction points. Because faction hunt was part of the arc point events. Best reward event in the game even if they did make it horribly long. Now just arc points?!? So no rss. Not mats. No faction credits. Just what you get I. The stupid arc and that you have to pay for to make it worth the effort at all. I’d rather have long events with rewards than short event that give you nothing

Every single time i select a hostile in the new space the game restarts i dont even get a chance to try to attack.

THIS IS GETTING WORSE AND WORSE every week you just dump more rubbish content on us and expect players to keep pumping in money to keep up.

5 days on a solo leaderboard is way too long. in order to keep any reasonable position you have to compete in every hourly event, and some of us have lives and require sleep.

The competition duration of 5 days is much too intense for the actually well done new 1h flash event! This is much too brutal, maximum 2-3 days everything else is out of this world!
In prime time we have way too many players in the systems, there are at least 3-4 players for each NPC and all wait on the spawn point, often 5-6 (that also creates frustration against each other!). Stealing each other's NPCs has not much to do with competition.

Which would be extremely nice if there is a half time where there are no hourly events for 4-6 hours, best from 18pm - 24am.
The 45-50min between the events is much too short to handle all the other dailies, that gets too much for people as time goes by. I think that most people just stop playing because the game takes too much time to finish all dailys + events, I have a lot of time but even for me it is often too much.

Scopely If you must insist on Flash Events can you please insure there are Sufficient Hostiles in Sufficient Systems that can be actually reached within the time frame of the Event. Hardly anyone has been able to upgrade the Discovery sufficiently to reach the Warp 50 Systems or have other Ships that can not only reach this Distance but in time to actually take part in the Event. At present you have everyone Scurrying around like Ants in the Systems most can reach.

In the 'Signal Interrupted' Mission we are ordered to destroy a Klingon Invader in the Obilent System. On the Galaxy map Obilent has a yellow marker to show a mission objective is there but when you enter the system, there is no yellow marker to show the location of the Klingon Invader. I closed the program twice and reloaded it and it made no difference. There was still no marker showing the Klingon Invader.

@brisk osprey Hitting any hostile in that system should suffice.
brisk osprey
Thank you, John, your tip solved that problem. In the Flash Events, when the screen becomes crowded with ships and nodes screen scrolling becomes difficult, ship movement becomes 'jerky' and it can take several clicks to establish a target lock. There is also another bug, which occasionally makes all the ships disappear. It is necessary to close the program and re-open it to cure it but that loses time in the Flash Event. Please, let us have no more Flash Events in future.

Give people time to repair ships, do dailes, SLEEP/NAP, HAVE A LIFE. The only people who are winning are the insomniacs and people who don't have a life/job. And 5 days is way too long.
Proposed changes:
- Reduce the frequency of the events to once every 2-3 hours.
- Make it 1 day events instead with reduced rewards. Gives people a chance to catch up/cash out. A 5-marathon is crazy.
- Increase the total sessions of SLB from 4 to 8 (while halving the rewards)

The frequency of the event is completely ridicolous

Yeah, looks like they think gamers want to be interrupted from most tasks they are attempting to do. Dailies often take more than 45 minutes at high levels.. so one can’t complete daily before next beloved flash event interrupts gaming again.

I have refused to do the flash events in this phase of the Discovery arc. Life is so much better.

Boycott the flash events, and anything else in-game which interferes with real life responsibilities or needs. They’ll either get the point or lose players.

The flash events compared to last arc are better according to my perspective... Earlier I had to at least log in 5 times to finish all those milestones.... Now all I need to do is grind twice for 15 mins each, keep killing lv 33 hostiles as long as the flash events last, and get in the top 15. It is really great compared to what we had the last time. And Thanks for actually keeping the LB brackets narrow and doable ( would be nice if we can get some repair speedups as rewards though 😂 😜 )

We evaluated the pvp event as an alliance and realized that there was no way for us to be competitive with the current pvp brackets and have chosen, as a group, to not participate in being whale food. I don't know what issues caused the event to be pulled, but I doubt it was the fundamentally unbalanced pvp bracketing. I doubt that whatever fixes are made will affect our decision.

lapis fjord
The event sucks for lower levels. No doubt about that. Fortunately miners are excluded.
To be honest though, this game has never loaded faster with all of the floating ships on our server cleared out. I'm hoping that by being Scopely's deputized janitors for 1 day, our next few days of flash events will not have the same lag the previous days have had.
I'm ok with this event as long as it does not happen often. (No more than once a quarter or twice a year.) We get there needs to be a way to clear out floating ships that afk. Just don't want this to happen monthly.
subtle scarab
Only reason it runs faster because all lower player took a day of from playing as they can not do any pve dailies
haughty gazelle
PvP in all systems? 😡🤬
This is the worst event ever, especially because of this stupid attack range system.
lapis fjord
Maybe. I'll let the devs determine that. If floating ships do not impact the server performance, then this event is meaningless for most players except the top alliances on a server. Devs should reconsider the event then and not repeat it. But if cleaning out floaters help server performance, then an acceptable one-day pain.
As extra feedback -- if this event is not meant to help clean up a server's floaters for game/server performance reasons, then devs should consider (if repeating the event again) to have an opt-in option for Alliance Admirals to choose to opt in their alliance to play. Use the same special marker flags used for the flash event klingons on player ships who are playing in the pvp based on opt-in by their alliance. That could make it fun, if this event is not meant to be to clean up performance.
Then alliances who don't want to play can just not opt in.

The event should deduct pts for killing ships where power disparty is >50%. Problem solved.

Maybe scale the points received/lost based on the relative level of the foe? So if a 39 takes my small 27 ship out, they only get a few points and I don't loose much, but if it is a relatively even match the scoring is as it is now.

@silver crown all these pvp events are geared towards 2 things. burning rss to pay for more or feeding a whale complex to spend for bigger ships. They CLEARLY do not care because they could EASILY build a pvp mechanic to allow alliances to run a whales vs littles armadas to a 50/50 chance level to offset the disparity in the player level... but do they??? No. the flash event is a lame attempt to force online players to burden to rush around doing reds vs raiding.. its a crap solution to equalize a pyramid scheme they have on level disparity.
game OBVIOUSLY needs new developers and a new owner... of course unless its a cash grab game.

@prime gulch change PvP to only give points when you attack a stronger opponent that way it’s interesting and far for all

Negative pts means players not taking part in event
So event is useless. If no negative then people will be getting stuck in and taking part

It’s literally just a matter of finding a player to feed your alliance free kills.

One alliance on my server started trolling and will get first place now. Ruined it for the rest of us. Point removal won’t matter when it’s the feeding that wins it
Or maybe Scopely needed the servers cleared of floating mass?
And that’s the point of all of this?

I swear, Dopely has GOT to be the dumbest group to ever polute the internet.
Here's why your new PvP event is dumb as hell. You will run off all of your ftp players and very quickly the ones that can't pay much. Then, you'll only have whales. But, and here's where that will fk you up, the whales will get really bored, really fast.
Then THEY will quit playing.
Then, it's game over. Losers.

This is no different than when the FAA landed all planes on 9/11. There’s no flights. No activity. Just mining. That’s it. If this turns into all PVP, I will be gone.

Yeah, this was poor decision making isn’t anyone out except the ships that are 2 mill plus

Big alliances can’t commit to massive assaults against each other. An all out duke fest isn’t viable.
The alliance that trolled for first could lose to us 2 bigger alliances that could do a massive relocation and duke it out. But... nope!

Ok, so you make a 5 day SLB, and on day 3 take away our ability to earn medals? so now it's just a waste of time for the event?

I get that they are trying to do something new. But maybe this isn’t it. I’ll give them credit for trying. But maybe checking around with participants first might give them better direction on what to try. It’s amazing how many of us love to hate the game we love.
vagrant topaz
Maybe they have to much server load and this event is to reduce the server loudout, great job indeed 🤣😂🙈

How about making the negative points for losing a ship half that of killing one? (Or at least slightly less)
As it is, all the ships on my server got killed in the first hour and no one is sending anything but miners out

For today's pvp event, we definitely need the leaderboard to show alliance members with negative points so we know how much of a hole they need to dig out of and can address the issues. Having them not appear on the leaderboard is a massive pain.

So the day many people are logging out due to the pvp event you have service provider issues. Well at least not many will notice.

<@&509690795536941056>s, scopely... I have no words to tell you how disappointed I am. I though I've seen the last of involuntary PvP events, yet you created this horror today! What were you thinking? You ruined my plans for the day - planned to go hunting for borg probes, but it would be very stupid now, wouldn't it? I'd just lose all the transwarp cells I've been collecting for the last few hours for TODAY! My dailies will be extremely hard to complete because I'll get killed a 100 times until I manage to do them, ruining my alliances points in the process! You've effectively made the game unusable for me during these 24 hours. I believe there are others who find this an equally bad surprise, not to mention that most lower levels are just cannon fodder for the 30+ players. You definitely had to make a way to opt out of this, least of all to limit that to certain systems. Also I expect COMPENSATION in form of at least all the daily rewards I miss and 45k borg probes I planned to get and refine today!
Your outraged customer who had to pull some extreme self control not to tell you all the words I really think you deserve.

@coral sail
The types of ships are cool (all G2+ warships). Just limit it to certain systems like the last pvp event. That way players can opt to participate or not yet still play other parts of the game.
coral sail
I agree that we should be compensated for the rewards we will not get for our dailies or our borg and exchange reds that we cannot get ourselves. Those reds are necessary. And the dailies are necessary. We can’t get them. So you should give them to us now. You took them away so give them back

PvP events should be level basedIf u kill a lower level player u get fewer or no points and the other way round

Dear Scopely, I doubt more and more whether you have any idea what you are producing. How to make an unspeakably long event that runs every hour and at the same time a pvp event that is not spatially limited. Serious question: Which menhir fell on your head when you thought it up and put it together in this form? Get well soon. This is not normal...

@wild cove good point; we shouldn't be cannon fodder for the whales!
heady creek
The PvP event doesn't take into account attacking ships docked at a base. If a base has a Talla, Turas and a Jellyfish docked at a base and you destroy the ships while attacking the base, it only counts for the FIRST ship on the dock, I'm guessing Dock A. I attacked a base with a Phindra, Talla and Turas and only got awarded the Phindra. PvP event said anywhere in the systems didn't say you were limited to a single ship per attack.

ABSOUTELY TERRIBLE idea of a whale-pleaser event. IF this crap is ever tried again, either fix the ops attack ranges to make them tighter like max +/-5 OR make it 'attack player with cargo +1 pt, attack player without cargo -30 pts'.

So this new event “Rage of the Klingon Houses” is set so any system and any combatant are fair game. Did you think that everyone really wanted to participate? If , say , I was working faction points I’d be fair game for anyone to knock off costing me rss and down time. Why, exactly, is that a good thing?

Congratulations Scopely, you have created an event to get me to STOP playing the game. My server looks pretty empty. I hope the players that wanted this get what they deserve, an absolutely frustrating day with no one to attack. - - - Bad event Scopely. You have several of these planned this month, so there will be several days when I do not play. If I find something better, I will not be back. I agree with many of the people here, this type of events makes me want to quit the game forever.

@dense prairie tbh it may not be that bad if there was a "win 3 points, lose 1 point" system like it used to be in some pvp events; this minus points is especially horrible
but not limiting pvp to certain systems is worse... it makes most ppl hostages of whales and other high lev bullies
ahh... status update - my alliance has fallen back to 0 points; obviously whatever our members managed to score, whales have beaten out of us
what a great idea for an event, really!

I got blindsided by this event. Just wanted to do my dailies and got killed and lost points. Was not aware of the event yet. Will not participate bubbled for the day will check back in 24 hours. I hope Scopely wises up apologizes and cancels event only the bigs are having fun. This event forced me to bubble for the day made the game unplayable. If they made it certain systems only. Then players who wanted to play the rest of the game can. That or be forced to quit and Scopely gets no more money.

Again: Great event design, Scopely! Players in our alliance are already leaving the game because of this 💩 event. It's almost impossible to do the daily stuff, because you get killed every time. This event makes the game nearly unplayable! And instead of declaring only a selected number of systems for the event to take place, you are throwing the whole galaxy into chaos (for those, who hasn't left yet).

Ultimately you have an event and discourages participation for all but the strongest minority, thereby reducing even their fun. If I could hit ships and not suffer negative for my losses I’d gladly get stuck in, but as it is I’d have to hit a ship and immediately warp home to repair again to avoid losing the points I just gained. That’s very clunky and I’ll-thought out. So in meantime servers are full of tumbleweed

The PVP event is terrible.. I’m all for a bit of PVP in designated systems but this event is completely biased towards strongest players in the game... The server I’m on had literally ground to halt. I am unable to complete my dailies because as soon as I try I get destroyed!! Way to go Scopely... you managed to alienate most of your players. An evening of gameplay ruined! ... Badly designed event!

@prime gulch this pvp is not wel thought. I like the idea bit cheating is to easy. Also due to you performance issues (service provider) the game is laggy. It’s already instable the last weeks but with am event like this unacceptable. I lost my ent twice so 2000 points due to a invincible ship attacking me and once as i clicked warp and the game crashes. I am not the only one. So what are you gonna do?

The screw up with this event was 2 fold
(1) making it a Zero Sum situation. If I engage in sally on sally combat and go 1-1 then I'm still at 0 points.
(2) Making this galaxy wide instead of system specific.
There's no incentive to put ships out to PvP unless you're in the upper 30s and the scope is so broad that the only ships out and about on my server are survey ships.

Terrible event, I’m all for PVP events that you opt into but this is just ridiculous. Scopely ran out of “free stuff” ideas for Whales so they just decided to feed Whales the rest of the server. So much for daily’s, I’ll pop a 3 day shield and see how things look in a few days.

This event is super frustrating and not helping make people want to play. You couldn't have a PvP event limited to certain systems, or at the very least keep things limited to a point that it's actually competitive??? It's taken me 8 trips to Swarm space to register 9 kills because level 40+ players hover out there and wipe you out the second you're in system. Or park and catch ships that are being recalled to base. I'm a level 31, and am strong for my level in ships and crew... but there's nothing I can do against players with an Augur or Enterprise... and I'm unable to even do daily goals for my bonus chest now now too... let alone get event points. Shielding and staying offline like so many others are being forced to do too. I like fighting, and like a good PvP event... but having no choice and being unable to even complete tasks.... this is horseshit 😡😡😡😡
ocean sequoia
This PvP event is EXTREMELY disappointing! Many of us are not on here to PvP and would much rather the default be PvE. For future PvP events, it should be opt-in only and if you don’t opt in, you cannot be attacked. And outside of events, the level range for attacks should be extremely limited not only based on lvl but capability...most of these are ALWAYS unfair matches. Enough hate in the world right now don’t need it in-game.
simple hazel
Agreed. I’m a strong 24 and I can’t play today, except for snipe and run away hits. That’s no fun.
I just did it and I’m not very happy with myself for it.

In fact...since this was such a poorly executed PvP event, developers should give a huge bonus gift to all those who have been destroyed to replenish all the tritanium and other resources to repair ships.

So, my feedback or the "rage of the Klingon houses" event is simply this: unbalanced to high level players... Penalizes lower level players... generally makes it aggravated to run other mission lines if you're not interested in the event. The Galaxy wide event was a mistake in my opinion. Many more of these events and you will lose my participation and spending.

Oh, yeah. Almost forgot. The second you do try to play pvp, the big boys crack your station

The PvP event everywhere is awful. Stick it to specific systems like previous PvP events.
This event rewards high level, pay-to-play players even more than normal.

RAGE of the Klingon houses is a terrible event. The rage is right, because all it is are the higher level players going out in their 2 Million and higher ships and picking on everyone lower than them. I can't get missions done, I can't get dailies done because it's a frickin free-for-all and I get blown up every time I leave my base. AND THEN, if I do get blown up, I go negative and hurt my alliance score. This is, hands down, THE WORST event you have come up with. I mean, I don't like the PVP events but I can avoid them... not this one. THIS EVENT SUCKS.
north kettle
Worst event since the first full sever pvp event. You say you want to to advance by dailies and other events, then set up bullies and whales to bring everything to a halt. Only reason it’s slight better is miners are excluded

Even the Whales hate it because everyone is hunkered down in their bases. NO ONE likes it.
vagrant topaz
If $copely really want a good PvP event then here is this:
Players score points for damage dealt on other players' combat ship and point are earned and can not be lost. Then everyone will have a chance. Right now this is nothing more than "who has the biggest ship" contest.
The coding is already in place for PvE event already so there is no excuse

Hello. Just wanted to say that this event is just a way of letting the higher leveled players pound on all the other players. I find it very irritating and if this is the direction this game is going I might stop playing. If Scopely is going to do this they will loose many players who have been playing this game for more than a year. And they are welcome to keep all their whales because with out the rest of us they will get bored and move on.
dense prairie
<@&509690795536941056> here's the deal - since the stakes for getting killed if you have anything resembling a decent ship are so high, you cant just fly around and play. Unless you have an incredibly strong ship, you have to be super tactical and snipery - the result is, the few poor souls who dare venture out with any visibility are beaten upon, the alliance that invariably has a disproportionate concentration of the higest players walks around saying "where is everybody"
now couple this with a day when there is AWFUL server lag, to the point that, oh - that target wasn't really there.
And you have a completely unplayable game.
Here are some thoughts
- lower the penalty for a loss. It doesn't have to be 0, but maybe, -10%? Maybe, +10% of a win even? In fact, giving a SMALL amount of points based on the ship you were killed with would stimulate players to try and keep the PVP as close in level as possible, thus fostering enjoyment.
- maybe have some systems not count. Give people who aren't playing the event a way to at least complete dailies.
Just ideas. I'm sure your server logs will reveal the wildly unpopular turd taco this was. But I think you can fix it.
I was so excited when I first saw this event and then it's just like
feral sun
Scopely managed to break the game without actually breaking the game. This event makes the game unplayable and participation has come to a halt... all through a horrible event. Whatever dev came up with this one deserves a special award.

Worst event scopley has conceived so far. They're kicking us when we're already down and exhausted from the constant hourly flash event. PLEASE for the love of God empathize with your f2p/low spending players when creating events.
Y'all NEED to fix level bracketing and pvp ranges before anymore of these god awful pvp events come out. You're bleeding players constantly, so many folks are at the end of their rope and scopley keeps twisting the knife.

This Dumpster Fire is utterly STUPID. I can't do combat dailies because as soon as my ships hit a system they get lunched by players 6 levels higher and with the resources to buy every possible Prime upgrade. Now I have to squeeze dailies in between the Anomaly Events tomorrow (which I actually like). If you want to do an event like this in the future, you're going to have to radically change the way PvP combat works. For starters, you need to tighten the range for combat to +/- 2 levels. Then, move the combat zone for events like this to the under level 10 systems. That won't affect the lower level players, and lets those of us not interested in "live fire" exercises the ability to opt out and continue our normal activities. Heck, you could also use the separatist systems as there is nothing of value in them unless there's a separatist event going on.
cerulean mesa
Reduce the range of levels, restrict event to separatist systems, reduce or remove negative pts 👀
granite nymph
This event does errrm. I can’t politely describe it.
The one thing that is a must change if you ever have it again is you must record somewhere accessible to members of the alliance the positive and NEGATIVE total points earned by EACH MEMBER. our alliance I think has someone intentionally sabotaging our totals for the benefit of a alliance they used to be in but I can’t prove it.

I am going to say this I like PVP as much as the next person but until the ranges are tighten to make it somewhat fairer this event sucks
I have more neg points as a 31 cause 40+ just come alomg and hit me doing dailies
Where I might as well not log in for the next 12 hours
The neg points are not fair to my alliance either
uncut sentinel
Either shrink the range to be fair or exempt systems like swarm from being pvp counted
subtle scarab
PvP should be about ship strength not about ops lvl where points are given for attacking a stronger or similar strength opponent that way it’s far and you don’t have scatter when you see a ship 2 or 4 times stronger
brittle pilot
Rage of Klingon houses event doesn’t give credit for all warships in base. Only gives credit for 1 if all ships are warships, and none if one survey ship is home. Yet, if you lose, you lose points regardless of what ships are home.
coral ruin
In conclusion, the only thing left is that this event is only there to punish the weak. The top 50 players farm everything that is in relevant PvE systems such as Fyrsta, Dalogen, Wolf, Mempa, Borg systems and so on. You can't even get against it because those have already researched too far and their officers have such a massive bonus. Even if the ship is equally strong you have no chance. Basically the devs put a bounty on 90% of the community and prevent progress by blocking all access to other events or daily tasks. I've been watching a lot of multiplayer games for 20 years but I've never been able to marvel at such crap.

Put bad reviews is AppStore and PlayStore!

stuck helm
I've just registered for Discord to slag off this appalling event. It's the worst event format in my near 2 years of playing. Ghastly and without a si glen redeeming feature. The vast bulk of players will hate it because it's chronically unfair, stoos you doing dailies and rewards bubbling for 24hrs and logging out not participating. Even as a cynic I'm stunned Scopely has done something so stupid. They need to drop this format immediately or players will quit.
thorny perch
I remember in the beginning of the game there was nearly the same Event (perhaps Miner includes) and most of all players were 'very not amused'. After that there was a big sorry from Scopely and they learned from it... I think they don't.
If the goal of Scopely is to reduce players from game than is this Event a good plan...
lethal holly
Cant even get daily swarm or faction hunting done with an event that basically a free for all! There definitely needs to be more structure with at least confining to specific locations. And why are bases not included in an event that is all G2 and up. Its ridiculous that if I hit a base and take out all 3 ships, but the station survived with anything left to its hull and my Saladin blows up, I go backwards and lose pts!!!

This PvP event, that’s on for 24 hours only really benefits the higher players, leaving most of the galaxy empty. We have all been hiding at our bases and only allowed to leave it we mine. This is making it hard when we are already leaving through COVID times and we can’t leave our base because bigger players will destroy you so you can’t do your dailies. This needs to be restricted to certain areas or atleast we should be safe in swarm space or something. Let loose like this makes gaming no fun I already can’t leave my flat and now not being able to leave my base I feel trapped and so does everyone on server 155. You need to come up with better solution. I heard it’s happening again next week so yet again no game play. Would love to heat better suggestions on this. Thank you 🙏 x

Maybe make it so alliances cant just leave alliance and get killed repetedly by their own alliance for leaderboad points.
This is why set systems works better.

This pvp event has turned our server into a ghost town. No one wants to go out for fear of losing points. Instead it should be a flash event with great rewards to encourage participation even from those who don't usually pvp. Randomly 5-15 minutes, random start times so it can't be planned and taken over by the usual high end alliances. If you happen to be online, go nuts in an immediate orgy of violence.
It's a good idea, helps clear out the floating ships and probably improves server performance. Just poorly executed

I demand compensation for this atrocity of an event No text information when I try and access it which means I can't play it but yet I can be the victim of it. I also want the bps that were robbed from me for the jellyfish when one of the compensation packages was to complete missions Some compensation that was Scopely

I can copy all the complains regarding the actual pvp event. In my ally people are thinking about to quit the game. This event is just the tip of the iceberg to them. The Game has developed into a time consuming monster.

Many of the past events were conceptually sound even though they may have had bugs. The PVP event was probably the worst idea I've heard in gaming when you look at the format that the game was founded on. I understand some of the higher level and well-funded allian ces enjoy picking on and destroying others. There's even a metric that everyone goes by on how well and quickly you destroy other players. I would say the vast majority of your players want to enjoy the environment and not those who pray upon others.

PvP event also punishes any base raid: loosing a ship in this way counts in the event too, decreasing points
not very amusing
Scopely, you need to improve this event dynamics soon, we can do almost nothing
sharp grotto
All feelings and everything else about this event aside. I'm curious as to why if I attack a base and there's a Vahklas, or a Kumari and Vi'Dar and I take both of them out but then the base gets my Bortas, why do I lose 500 points still?? No credit at all for the ships destroyed too?? They weren't suddenly not destroyed anymore simply because my ship got taken out afterward. Idk... maybe it's just me that feels that's messed up...

Plus, we are not certain if the scoring system is working properly

I said this before... PVP is fine and I accept it as part of the game either during an event or in general. I like that Scopely limited the Miners to be not part of the game. I like that they established a points structure as well. What I do not like and said as has many on this board. Galaxy wide and the PVP range itself.
For the Galaxy wide portion - The problem is the higher level players could easily park their Enterprise or their Augur (both level 34 ships) in places like a Swarm Level 32 system and when players come in with their Franklin to do the daily no more Franklin. Or you spend a Warp Token for Borg space and get jumped by a large ship like the Enterprise again and now not only are you out the resources to fix your ship but one of the tokens you get for the Borg space. Making it Galaxy wide without limitations is only a way for the larger players to farm the smaller players.
This leads to the second issue the PVP Range. Many have said for years that the range is to wide. Scopely reduced it some once, but let us be honest at level 31 I can hit be hit by anyone level 48 and below until they are 23. Now coming up is one thing. A 23 that wants to hit me fine their risk there reward and sometimes it is worth it. Like when my miner is OPC and they need the node (double win for them). But the other way when a 39 comes with his ISS Jelly (even level 1 Jelly) and simply wham, bam thank you mam on me at 8 levels below with not the same amount of research of power of the ship.
As I said at the Beginning PVP is fine, but some limitations are needed to make all parties enjoy the entire game. Basically after the event of the PVP, I simply bubbled up and decided I will check back after 12 Noon ET which is 9 AM PT (US) on Saturday and if another PVP is going do a 24 hour shield and pray that I can afford to miss getting the tokens for Saturday of the Battle Pass that I paid to be part of. Remember I paid for the Battle pass not just the free end.

@old grail the problem with the event is 2 fold, btw these are common issues in MMO games with PvP, so this should not be a big surprise.
#1 - PvP bands and/or scaling. Case A, Mid-level PvP, Ops 23 with best ship vs Ops 33. current outcome: 100% win rate for the ops 33. Case B, can the Ops 23 'team-up' vs Ops 33, i.e. 10 ops 23 players with best ships, chain attack Ops 33. current outcome: 100% win rate for the ops 33.
Solution - Normal in MMOs is to use either tight bands if populations allow, alter scaling so that the bands work, and/or implement a bolstering method for PvP battles.
Open world and event/warzone PvP can follow different rules, allowing the big guys the current advantages in base raiding/world PvP and a competitive event environment.
#2 - Cost and/or time investment. The current repair costs and time with competitive PvP does not encourage the risk vs reward portion of an event. This encourages 'Ganking' lower level players, rather than playing an event the way the developers intended.
Solution - Event PvP can and
Solution - Event PvP can and should have different costs/time involvements. This could simply be a 'Token' awarded during the event on a PvP death that provides an instant/free ship repair when that ship is respawned in its dock. As repair is currently the only option with a destroyed ship, you can use that to ensure that the token is consumed.
Paring the free repair with the PvP death will also encourage players to PvP until death, rather than try for one kill and then warp away. If they warp away they would have the regular full repair/time cost.
uncut sentinel
@thick gazelle the problem I see with the warp portion is you need to move to another system for new targets.
thick gazelle
there should always choices to make, warp vs move base is one of those
woeful sphinx
on my server teams outside top 10 are now in 2nd and third from players leaving and boostinf. Others have already suggested limiting system so not galaxy wide, i would suggest at least disabling scoring in system below level 13 or 15 so you cant hide and cheat so easily. since lvl 9dont participate and there is no reason for mid or high levels to go there i cant see any disadvantage
thick gazelle
I'm talking about the 'investment' of repair resources and time vs the actual reward
keen dawn
Thank you, Scopely, for yet another stupid PvP event. NO ONE can do combat dailies on our server; all the big players are going around and taking everyone out.
PvP in this game is seriously unbalanced. For those bleating, "tighten the ops levels", that's not going to do a damned thing. FTP player at level 28 with a 400k max ship still has NO chance at all against a PTP player at the same level with a 1.5M ship.
Change the paradigm from ops level to ship power level. Make it so you can only attack, say, ships with +/- 10 or 20 percent of your ship's power level.
uncut sentinel
Look I am not saying your idea is bad. But maybe needs refining.
thick gazelle
@woeful sphinx that to me is really an exploit, and should be taken that way by the devs and fixed. that was not an intended deisgn I would assume
the common MMO solution to 'farming' and/or win trading, is a point cool off time for killing the same player multiple time
sweet frost
There is no fixing pvp in this game, its always going to be whales ganking... If they made it power based, you would be upset because the whale could use a maxed lower tier ship with thier maxed officers and tech to beat your higher grade ship... They would be risking say the points of a uncimmon 3* ship vs your rare or epic 3*.... And still they would win more often than not.... Just accept that the game will never be "fair"

Is it th right place to report our feeling of the actualy event ?
woeful bronze
Well once again scopley you've figured out a way for the whales of the servers to get even bigger with this new pvp event. Us little guys 29 and below didn't stand a chance against all the big boys. We can't get any points if our 600k or below ships can't stand up against the 1 mil and up ships of the whales. Where is the fairness in that? Us little guys trying to beat up one of the big guys is like a toddler trying to beat up Mike Tyson. Not going to happen. If you wanted to make it even close to fair we should have gotten the same points for loosing as the whales got for winning. If we're going to do nothing but loose points, then whats the point??
I wouldn't be a bit surprised if a lot of ppl quit the game over this and the very poorly thought out last 2 events. You think your doing us a favor by adding poorly thought out content with crappy rewards, your not. Y'all make enough $$$ from us from all the packages we buy that you can spare a little bit larger rewards. Take a little longer to think up some better content. And in the mean time fix all the issues or just make the game more stable.
woeful sphinx
regarding the boosting issue. im sure you could implement a system whereby if the game knows which alliance you were in for last 48-72 hours so that if you get attacked by any of them (even if you swap a few times) you both sides get NEGATIVE instewd of positive points
lime igloo
I'm member of the french team "BAFF". And a medium low player (lvl 23). The last event for me is catastrophic for low and medium players. As i like Discovery one, as i don't like this one. Too difficult and is a boost for first tier players.
The points should be calculte with ratting.
Ex level 15 attack and destroyed lvl 20 gain specials points AND th vessel points according to the level.

Dear scopely, have you learned yet that this games base doesn't want pvp? Stop trying to force it on is!!!!
feral maple
All players are forced to take part to the event wether they want or not. Many players especially the weaker ones are very abused by the event, some will leave the game completely! So to preserve a good mix of players limit those PvP event to some systems, so any player can choose to join the event or not.

Byron, they used to do that not long ago, but for dome stupid reason decided to go this route, probably because the whales that spend thousands the game requested it. And as the old saying goes "Money talks, bs walks.".

is the new range for event leaderboards 39-41?
i am not upgrading because everyone says leaderboards get to difficult because of big spenders
crisp mirage
Limiting this event to one system would have made life better for casual players, but the event itself would still be garbage. It would still be "who can feed themselves the most Kumaris the fastest" and not have any real PvP.
Dear Scopely,
Please please please set up an actual beta server and have actual players play test events like this. It's clear you don't or you wouldn't have screwed up the ALB/SLB scoring and had to take it all offline to fix it. You also would have gotten nothing but negative feedback BEFORE putting it into the real game and ruining the game for most players. You would have found the scoring discourages "fun" combat and encourages exploits. You would have found out everyone hates it.
Please, for the good of the game, delete this event from the Arc. No REAL PvP is happening. It's just devolved into people smashing lowbie bases to kill a vahklas, and people seeing how fast they can have a non-allied player feed Kumaris to a 1701. This is far worse than that poorly conceived "finale" of the Gauntlet. At least that was only one system filled with exploits for points.
If you want to make it fun, only give points for taking it a ship of the same type. Points for a 12M Korinar eating a 150k Kumari is dumb. Watching two 1701s face off with experimental crew setups is fun! Keep it to limited systems so you don't alienate 50+% if the player base who just want to kill a few reds.
You do yourselves a great disservice not treating with actual players. Poorly conceived events drive people away. Delete this event, and actually play test new ones.
candid anvil
however if for all event new segmentation os done and 39-41 is the new range i would upgrade
as 40 and 41 have some nice research
main crater
Event suggestions:
-
Give a server wide pvp shield for bases during the event that does not break from engaging in ship to ship combat.
-
Remove all repair costs and repair time from ships destroyed in pvp combat.
-
Make points based on level equal level or higher gives the most points. Lower level ships give lower points down to 1 point at the lowest bracket.
-
Keep the zero sum leaderboard and add a solo point board to incentive people to leave their bases.

The worst part about this PVP event is that everyone is forced to participate, whether they want to or not. There needs to be some mechanism for joining, and a method to identify those who have joined, for example, changing the target tip color to something like green or orange or something.

I do like the alliance help / contribution event. Our alliance is about to be able to add someone in a short period because contributions are through the roof and far out measuring the event but the event made it happen.

<@&509691205798592532> another idea. Make the event "Rage of Klingons" PVP in Klingon space and all hostiles attack regardless of standing. You can then rotate periodically theough other factions.

@earnest glade The problem with that event is, it’s the only way to get the battle pass points this time around. That kind of screws the solo players who aren’t members of an alliance. That’s grossly unfair.

The points scoring is also broken, if you hit a base with more than one warship at home you only score points for one of the warships.

@keen dawn there are many alliance events and many solo events. A solo player can make an alliance. Contribute to it and abandon it for very little par to participate

Easy to solve this problem if there was a sign up option to participate on the event by the alliance Admiral ,the Admiral talks to the members the members agree to enter the event , alliance gets a pvp flag to compite vs other Alliances that clicked the option to join the pvp event

@everyone
REGARDING PVP EVENTS LIKE THIS ONE
- make it a burst event if galaxy wide
- or if a 24hr make it a specific system/ship event
- or if a 24hr make it one faction and activate all hostiles regardless of standing. Factions can change each time the event comes around.
- make points scored by variance in power, you take out a ship over a million less no points. You take out a ship a million more big-time points.
- make the rewards bigger, people really like leveled ship BP (meaning if they are level 40 give em a Dark Jelly BP).
torn plinth
- prevent people from joining an alliance during an event to receive rewards from that specific alliance event (to prevent people leaving / rejoining alliances for farming points)

Incentivise against that, don't ban it.

I always prefer incentives over bans.

i think that's exactly what it would do, isn't it? if you stay in the alliance, you get rewards - that's an incentive. but it does not actually ban anyone from leaving or joining. how else would you handle people leaving alliances so that other members can score points on them only to rejoin the alliance later...?

@torn plinth The event shouldn't count hits against non-alliance ships. It's an alliance event, so it should ONLY work against other alliances. Leave the solos alone.

@torn plinth simple, you leave you get a timer set, at 0-2 hours from quitting you can only score 20% of rewards. At 2-4 from quitting 40% of rewards etc. Incentivise staying.

A simple opt out is to use specific systems only. I have zero interest in pvp, but this event didn’t even allow me to peacefully go about my dailies without some dufus attacking, even in swarm and borg space, which is a real dick move!

@keen dawn you can easily create small / one man alliances. @thorn glen that seems like a lot of effort to program this into the game. I'd rather still recommend to only give alliance rewards to people who were with the alliance when an event started and stayed till it ends. i think that's a simple and fair deal...

my point is about preventing people from leaving an alliance, so that their former alliance members can score points on them during this pvp event. you replied that points should only be given when you attack an alliance, which i think is alright. but it does not prevent any "fraud" as everyone can easily create a small alliance.

@torn plinth I think that is a relatively small problem compared to the joke of the event itself.
