[vagrant topaz]

for being a basically free mobile game? its a good game

[outer gulch]

U think this is a game?

[vagrant topaz]

seen much worse

[outer gulch]

Zombiefication

[vagrant topaz]

yeah, plants vs zombies was good as well, but not nearly as deep as this

[wooden cloak]

and im sure there is somebody in dev team... ,,guys i told ya ,, its not ready to PROD 😄

[outer gulch]

Rok?

[wooden cloak]

and Product owner will be short of his Q1 extra paid:D

[violet pulsar]

Please study the following diagram before making further adjustments to Tribble chest pull cooldowns: http://www.telco2.net/blog/assets_c/2012/03/van_toilet-thumb-600x528-427.png

[errant meteor]

or maybe just flush it away

[quiet thorn]

This event is the worst ever... A really new low

[outer gulch]

They testing how deep the rabbit hole goes

[vagrant topaz]

as long as there are idiots that throw money at them for the slightest reward, they will keep pushing

[silver briar]

This is not a free game when every month they want you to pay to access parts of it. What awards would this game win?

[vagrant topaz]

i'll give them money for contend within a blink of an eye

[outer gulch]

My 2 cent about the money thing, the ppl who can they don't care, second they feeling better when u feel worse

Dickshitawards of course 💩

[vagrant topaz]

but i will never give them money, to speed things up an basically rush through the game

[static gorge]

I like how no one in this Trek 'verse understands they need to grow grain AWAY from Tribbles. Starvation must run rampant.

[outer gulch]

Is there even level 51? 😂

[violet pulsar]

The way the economics and design of the game work lately, it's like selling people tickets to a sporting event, selling them food and beer, then telling them access to the six toilets they can access in the stadium is an auction. And the toilets are dedicated to each winner for thirty minutes.

[undone idol]

Scopely, please don’t ever repeat this terrible event, or anything like it

[outer gulch]

U dealing with the real gangsters, watch ur mouth 🙊🙈🙉😁💩😈

[violet pulsar]

As long as people are paying, you can't be doing it wrong.

[static gorge]

This isn't much different from their last tribble event, except the lag and how quickly you can get it done.

[quiet thorn]

The people spending the $99 for this pack are the April Fools

$20 maybe if you are really desperate

[long flax]

anyone spending money on this event are braindead.

[echo crow]

Feedback hmm?
Usually i like the most Events but...

Seems scopely is desperate for money
Crazy if som really Spend money for tribbles...
Or is there really anyone enjoy this Event?
Please remove that Kind of Events!
Everyone should Tell here Same as i Do
Let them know, what you think guys!
You cant do this scopely!

[outer gulch]

Government have to forbid such crap

[potent bough]

forbid lag on servers for a non-essential service?

[outer gulch]

Watch Southpark freemium, if not understand i can't help u

[potent bough]

if you're not willing to explain why should I go watch something else for your point?

[outer gulch]

I wasn't talking about lag

Freemium is dickshit made by gangsters!

[potent bough]

that's my point, your statement is vague, some discussion is complaining about lag, some about apparent P2W

[outer gulch]

Who the hell are u?

Scopely agent?

[potent bough]

No, but judging by your communication I'm smart enough to understand that construtive explicit feedback is more useful than your drivel

[vagrant topaz]

@outer gulch stay civilised with your language, or at least try to, try to be as calm as possible when delivering feedback. but phrase it in a devastating matter

[outer gulch]

I am civilised, I don't hurt anyone

Lol Feedback, they know what they do, they don't need our feedback 😂💩

Bob, ur message gone, where is it?

[potent bough]

I didn't delete my messages and I still see them

[outer gulch]

Found it other channel

[potent bough]

$copely, please let today's event show you that having a reward for first to complete SMS or MMS - as shown in your roadmap - is a bad idea.

[outer gulch]

Roadmap 😂 Show us ur income balance 🤑

[gleaming goblet]

Great event for tribbles! Your flawed chance generator guarantees a person playing free to play can’t complete the event.

[vagrant topaz]

tomorrow will come another crate with 100, and they promised a compensation chest for todays bad expirience.

[potent bough]

don't feed the tribbles, just grow more grain, you might run out of grain, but you still have a chance, I'm down to 42 grain (after I realized to stop feeding them) and I'm at 1.8M, and then there is tomorrow

[nocturne vortex]

I just grew more grain
out of grain now and 500k of last milestone so hopefully get that tomorrow

Feeding them only gives sh it avatars or frames that most players have anyway

[gleaming goblet]

Ok but so far the chance generator has given out over the 5 times I clicked the button for 10 grain.
Twice = 0 grain + tribbles. Twice = 2 grain and 0 tribbles, and once 4 grain and 0 tribbles. That’s a pretty crappy return for a event! Makes the crap reruns for the refinery look good.

[stable glacier]

Did the event and it put more tribbles in my inventory than it did in event

[pallid sand]

There bad lag, my last points were credited 20 min after my last chest. You should get them soonish

[formal solstice]

and mining tribble dont work either

[true hearth]

Is it just me, or is this event design ... maybe the worst yet? It's just opening loot crates one of two ways. No ships, it's luck of the draw with the smallest of choices involved, nothing interesting you can do to do better... maybe we had an event as bad once? Oh, and the prizes are meh, even... I am not even complaining about the server lag. The event is just uninteresting - if Tribble Fools was written up as a game description, nobody would download it.
*After reading some comments. It's not just me... this event is horrid, Scopely, please do better.

[formal solstice]

haha now ur asking some thing there, as i said beore ur better off sticking to ur rep grinding than dealing with this load of trash the call an event

[signal tapir]

Let's check back in a year and see if they listened

[formal solstice]

what in the event they get some thing right lmao 😂

[gleaming goblet]

As a whole tribbles event sucks

[proper drift]

Is there a place or a file that shows how much each level of a base object is required to advance up. I advanced my shipyard and it didn’t move the number but the requirements did.

[formal solstice]

Lcars server

[fluid gulch]

Where s the CoW? We want CoW

[potent bough]

F2P here, I completed the Tribble Fools - SMS day 1 mostly by doing Grow More Grain, I probably had about 40 grain afterwords with a few more wins

[neon oasis]

There are two types of tribbles now? Did you forget about the first?

[woeful raven]

Thanks for messing up my shield schedule yesterday evening with a short shield. Lost all the rss I have been saving overnight. And for a pathetic event that gives crwp rewards, after most people have spent their neutronium already. Really pathetic

[vagrant topaz]

oh, seems almost like the event is starting again, or is it just my client*?

[weary silo]

I also was growing grain only, but just around 50% of the event.... I'ts pure luck... That sucks so hard...

[fluid gulch]

Scopely, CoW event today!!

[potent bough]

You could have put your blue shield up when you normally would, so what if you would have had two shields

[brisk osprey]

Has anyone received their second crate of grain yet?

[shadow fiber]

The events are poo, why did you think opening chests would be a good event for 2 freaking days! Where is CoW

[shadow fiber]

Not their fault if you didn't apply a longer shield 🤦‍♀️

[vagrant topaz]

Great work on the event..well back to Netflix. 👍😂

[tidal light]

@prime gulch no crate for event, of course, might as well send us all the full event rewards and be done with it.

[indigo coral]

Dream on Scopely 🤑 🥱🥱🥱😴😴😴

[hollow sundial]

no on EU-156

[open elm]

Some in 180 some didn’t get any

That’s so poorly managed scopely! I quit. This is a bugged game and now your trying to take the last bit of fun by setting up bs bugged events

[plush tangle]

Hahaha. You quit over a tribble event. Lol

[wind moss]

So only the April Fool's Day Tribble events and get Mudd events. Plus no free grain for the Tribbles. This is a boring and stupid event day. Great job scopley 🤣🤣

[vagrant topaz]

another thing i have to add to the endless event critique list...
why do you artificially increase the pool size of the ranking list by packing levels together in a bracket that have nothing to do in the same bracket usually?

this reeks like a big dump of garbo

i mean that's just a rhetorical question, of course i know why you do it. but i really don't like the corporate greed answer. especially when it comes to slot machine like mechanics in a GAME.

as i see it, that's ethically borderline. but everyone has other standards.

PLEASE, do not break down the wall that seperates gaming from gambling.

[manic estuary]

So are we supposed to get more grain today?

[vagrant topaz]

i just got mine, they hand it out time delayed to not burn down their servers again. don't ask me how they determined the order

[manic estuary]

nm just popped up

[vagrant topaz]

in addition, the time delay you implemented for the grainchest works like a pressure mechanic for everyone with a high ranking to buy another pack because they don't know, if that player who surpassed them invested or just got the chest earlier.

that is abuse of human behaviour. please tell us, how you determined the order of handing the grain chest to the players.

[violet pulsar]

There's still considerable latency on scoring the Tribble events. I've seen about a minute of latency, sometimes more, between pulls and seeing score increases or banners.

[prisma kraken]

The compensation chest better be good

[candid quarry]

Why is there no duplicate protection on the avatar/frames?
Why can I get ones I already own?
Takes a roll that seems like it should feel like a special bonus and makes it feel like a complete waste

[keen nimbus]

Feed the tribbles event has to be some of the worse and they ever come up with, and let’s add the insult for even worse rewards

[lusty nexus]

Okay, today and yesterday we have no events...... cause choosing which one of two buttons you are gonna press to win an amount of neutronium that buys nothing and a recruit event which makes you spend all your mats for an officer you can get via faction store anyway are NOT events!

And, if you did your planning properly you would realise that offering a pack for tribble grain for chance to win shards on leaderboard is not en enticing one when for the same money you can buy packs that offer a lot more

[vagrant topaz]

where is our "we messed up again, we are sorry"-box btw? 🙂

maybe they are still holding a meeting if they should fire the exec with that idea or not. would be better than any giftchest ❤️

he gets promoted for the price tags

send that human filth back to vegas where it comes from

be civil, insult scopely but not a single person being forced to follow company policies

since i don't know who gets insulted when i say this, it's nothing personal 😇

maybe but let's not call someone human filth

person without any ethical compass?
i mean, i'm willing to compromise here xD

im good with this 😄

[dense sky]

The math on the Tribble event is messed up. Directions say 1 Tribble=1 point. Yet I'm getting way less. Pic shows getting 36K tribbles, but only got 600 pts.

[low flicker]

There is severe lag in scoring

[dense sky]

How does lag account for getting 36K Tribbles, or 36000, and only getting 600 points? THat's bad math, not lag.

[wheat summit]

So we Feed the Tribbles, and the prizes are totally dependent on a random number generator as to whether we can complete the event or not. That’s brilliant planning. *drips sarcasm *

[jagged kraken]

300k short for last milestone and no grain. i didnt expect to compete in SLB but not completing SMS with all clicking every 2 minuts is really disappointing

[wheat summit]

Lol I’m 284k short with 4 chests remaining. Yeah, I’ll make it!
Total waste of time

[severe viper]

The reward is for one box. Your summary is for all of the boxes.

[low flicker]

The score is lagging. If you exercised patience you'd see after a few minutes you are awarded the points.

[dense sky]

What is it about simple math you don't get. A "Box" is 36K tribbles. That means 36000 Tribbles. So the points should be 36000, not 600.

[visual anchor]

Dale - did you do a 10 chest run, or a single chest run? If you did a multiple, you’ll get multiple banners.

[low flicker]

I get math. You clearly don't understand that the points are just lagging.

[dense sky]

YOU Don't Get that LAG has nothing to do with Math being 1 to 1 for Tribbles & Points.

[visual anchor]

That, and there is no telling which banner is which. They keep popping up for 10 minutes or more after you actually do the run.

[severe viper]

What he said 👆

[dense sky]

Look at the picture I posted above. It says 36K. That means 36000 Tribbles, Yes or no?

[visual anchor]

Yeah, but it is a summary of the run. If you did a 10 chest run, you’ll get 10 of those banners (at least).

[low flicker]

Yes. But the banner is LAGGING BEHIND.
YOU GOT YOUR POINTS.

[dense sky]

Hector, no you don't. If you did 5 chests, you get a total of 36K Tribbles, And one banner of points, not 5 Banners.

And even if it was 5 banners, 600 x 5 is 3,000, not 36,000 that it should be.

[visual anchor]

Maybe you did... I didn’t . I ended with a 5 chest run this morning, and got no less than 29 banners after I did the run.

[low flicker]

Never trust the banner.
It always lags. Especially with this particular event. It took 10 minutes yesterday to see points after a pull

[visual anchor]

Most were probably from earlier runs, but who knows? The banners were whack on this event.

What deadlift said is true, also. The banners are notoriously inaccurate, and always have been. The only way to be sure on points is to check what your total is, do a run, then check to see what your points changed to. Allowing for lag, too, of course.

[vagrant topaz]

The banners are showing each individual pull. If you hit 10 and get 261k, it’s showing pulll 1 = 20000, 2 = 60000, etc.

[vagrant topaz]

The event is bugged on 10 it shows only first one and it doesn't actually go up in event scoring at all for other 9.

[potent bough]

or it was the last straw

[neon oasis]

@potent bough close to that for me

[potent bough]

I think a lot of players are there

[potent bough]

probably just a little lag, my 10 pulls updated the score regularly

[pure hamlet]

151.9k short. I lost count how many 1 tribble returns I received.

Highly disappointed in this event.

[neon oasis]

The tribble event rewards are trash

[upbeat vale]

If there’s a chance we’ll be short (which I am), you should at least give the f2p players a way to grind their way to the end.

We should have a price is right style game here, who has the closest score to completion without actually completing it, with all chests spent? 😂

[signal tapir]

Most players didn't have to pay to complete that event. You had bad luck/strategy.

[vagrant topaz]

doesn't change the fact that playing a slot machine can hardly be called an event.

[signal tapir]

Whatever.

Win some lose some

Participation trophies for all!

[signal tapir]

And again... Bad luck or bad strategy?

IDK

[limber orbit]

Bad luck

[signal tapir]

How do you know?

[limber orbit]

Grow the grains chest is a way to get grains but if u unlucky, u might ended up spent all the grains and get back just a small amount of Tribbles and no grain crates in return

That's why @signal tapir

Np

Cuz I did

[signal tapir]

Participation trophies for all!

[limber orbit]

I spend all my grains on the grow the grains chest but ended up still out of grains

[signal tapir]

Everyone's a winner

[limber orbit]

And should have 10 shards of 10 of 10

Ngl but spock is strong

[signal tapir]

Gimme gimme gimme. I like free stuff

[limber orbit]

Want a uss discovery pizza cutter?

[vagrant topaz]

i have the strong suspicion, that people who spent and try to win the event are happy when others arn't even near completion so their lead isn't in danger.

[limber orbit]

Yes

That's true

[limber orbit]

My current pfp

I like tribbles

[signal tapir]

Ok. So you know how much I spend. Why beat around the bush?

F2P is morally superior

[limber orbit]

Except for the fact that my inventory has more than 5m tribbles

[signal tapir]

You play harder even though you have no idea what I spend

I spent nothing btw

So moralize all you want

[vagrant topaz]

whisky, its not about you or your spending in particular, it is about a natural thing when human behaviour gets exploited by an event design.

[signal tapir]

You're full of it

Move on

[vagrant topaz]

<@&509691205798592532> please stop this agression

[limber orbit]

You pinged the whole mod team

[vagrant topaz]

not my problem

[signal tapir]

Oh god. You started it.

go away

And btw, I've taken more incoming for the Mods and CMs here than you ever will

Been here a while.

[vagrant topaz]

so, money is your shield? isn't that called corruption if they prefer and not stop your behaviour?

[signal tapir]

You're making a fool of yourself

Money?

What are you even talking about

[vagrant topaz]

is it my lack of english skills or what does this sentence mean? did you forget some words?

[past fossil]

This is rather toxic

If you can take your dispute to PM and avoid the nonsense in here everyone would appreciate it

The channel is for feedback, not bickering

[signal tapir]

I wasn't the one bickering. Just got tag teamed for no reason. Meh. Moving on. Again

[past fossil]

You all were.

[signal tapir]

Gifs deleted.

[dawn lark]

Fun event when randomness means you can't complete

Guess I'll open up the wallet 🙄 /s

[twin geode]

I’m done mind

[dawn lark]

Good for you, random is random though and it makes an event bullshit. For something that's meant to be "fun" - it sure had the fun sucked out of it

[atomic fossil]

Welp, here's my echo of previous comments... Went many rolls of the dice w/o any grain to be seen. A couple of time, each day. Seemed to be regulated or throttled. Now, I'm within ranking high enough to finally get that damned tribble... Greedy monsters ate every crumb up. 3hrs left.
Scopley hates my crew and my tribbles.

[errant ether]

Tribbles SLB was the worst event I've ever seen. Game states I should have a 17% chance of growing more grain. Just did 23 1 chest pulls of grow more grain in a row and didn't get any grain at all. Event was so buggy. Scopely, give me Tribble Miner shards.

[ruby ivy]

Tribble event. 👎

[tender arch]

yeah COW!!!

[pearl dove]

Military supremacy event is by far one of the worst events, like yeah I’ve totally been holding on to the epic ship waiting for this... and I’m sure not gonna hit 500 lvl 40 hostiles

[green ibex]

Really !!! MS event killing level 40’s ... like 500 of then ? Wish there was 500 of them like there are 38’s !!!!

[covert flicker]

I agree 100%, from level 34 this event is undo-able. level 40 hostiles spawn only if u clean 38's & 39's which means far more then 500 hostiles in 2 days and one of them is working day. not to mention that everyone is going for same 2-3 systems per factions not only for this event but for dailies as well. building epic ship or tier them as alternative need no comment

[vagrant topaz]

while it is possible to destroy enemies level 26+ while being lvl 20 yourself, i really do not recommend to do this 500 times. so basically this event is a little bit over the top for fresh 20's. everything else is ok. a grindfest but ok. at least the players can work for their goals.

yes there is a full 90 blueprint northstar pack, but it would be nice to have a smaller one as well, 45 maybe

[viscid phoenix]

There’s an NS pack in the $$$ store

[vagrant topaz]

just checked, and edited. thx for pointing it out. but while writing i had the idea to check myself xD

the only problem, i can't go and buy a google play card because all the shops are closed in middle europe at this hour and yeah, this continent isn't that big on credit cards. + weekend

filling up paypal via banktransfer isn't possible as well, because it seems our banks don't do transmissions on the weekend. so, yes. i want to but can't.
maybe i'll visit a gasstation. but thats really highly inconvinient.

tldr: highly inconvinient timing for gmt +1

yes, there are several payment options, but not everyone has access to every option. so while this may be an exception in my case. i have to inform you, that it would be great to know if you want to spend money while you are on your way home from work. and not when you already arrived and want to "shut down the stressmeter".

maybe an announcement "access to xyz coming weekend"

[upbeat vale]

Bad luck then. I only opened the “grow more grain” chest which was the most consistent result and should have put me over the line

[outer gulch]

500 X L40 in 3 days for L35 💩💀☠️🤬👿🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

[low flicker]

I didn't get Military Supremacy this go around

[compact coral]

This Military Supremacy event sucks!

[signal tapir]

Need to upgrade some of the useless 39 systems to 40s or higher. MS would be easier -- maybe even worth doing.

[marsh osprey]

you have 3 days, does not need to be done in 1.

[indigo coral]

How dumb can it be that with so many hunting level40 yet can’t see much level40 hostile in those level39 system. Trying to kill level38-39 so to expect level40 hostile to appear but screw it 💩💩💩 for 3 days. Wake the hell up many either had to work and family to take care of. @marsh osprey get it right as many from level35-41 are hinting the same 💩

[marsh osprey]

I have the even too and finish it in 2 days ...

[indigo coral]

@marsh osprey you are too free I see

[marsh osprey]

I run a discord with over 50K members, adding new features to the BOT, family time, full time job, etc... not that hard

I do a lot more + I am here talking to you

[indigo coral]

@marsh osprey well done that’s great effort. Okay I am out from stfc discord for good. Waste of time 👏🏼👏🏼

[marsh osprey]

You do the events that you can do. You do not have to do them all...

[sick onyx]

For Military Supremacy - what about making it where veteran ships count for 1 point, regardless of level? It would unclog the few "normal" 39 systems from having hundreds of players all fighting for the same ships...

[quartz lava]

Speaking of, why don't I see this event? I have some high level folks in my alliance that see, and some lows that see it, but I don't at Ops 30.

[vagrant topaz]

support ticket then, should be there

[sick onyx]

they've never explained why some folks get MS and some don't. The first time I ever got it was last month in between the battlepasses, at ops 33. I

[hardy knoll]

Anyone ops 33 have Military supremecy event? What level hostile do you have to hit. It is hostile 38+ at ops level 32.

[pallid sand]

It s not a op lvl question. No one know what are the requirements to have it or not

And I read you wrong 😂

It should be 38 for 33 too and 40 for op 34+ until op 38.

[quartz lava]

Thank you Scopely for being your typical unhelpful selves.

[low flicker]

For the first time ever I didn't get Military Supremacy.
No change in level since the last time it ran (which I participated in)
The ONLY change is I took my Vidar to T6 to T8 over TOS Arc 3 thanks to the Event Store. So maybe it's overpowered 😪

[ruby ivy]

MS is a horribly designed event, what you have to hit is too restricted, locations are too restricted, and in game situations make the event horrible, pvp due to the fixed systems, too many players wanting the same thing in the restricted number of systems which all leads to a frustrating and unpleasant event. I though events need to encourage players to play, not chase them away from the game to look for other games.

[thick owl]

Apparently one key for me has been not having a ship from my current ops level bracket. I'm ops 35 and don't have an ops 34 class ship so I'm getting the event. I'm still 22 bps away from my Enterprise. It would take a miracle to get enough bps tomorrow (only chance is to have alliance hit milestone 5 which would give me just enough credits to get an armada pack from the store. Running 1 rare will give me enough directives to run 1 epic).

[vagrant topaz]

well, i said it should be there as in.
"is there any reason to exclude some players?"
but maybe one of the requirements is being a good hostile grinder with some investment history. so they give you a really hard task and the option to buy you out of that misery...

so i took option c, ignore the event

[dusky sleet]

not seeing military supremacy event in last 3 runs and reading how pissed you all are for getting it is, oh yes. fun

[deft cargo]

you have to be lvl 20 and below for military supremacy, no?

[lime shadow]

Nope, people get it above that level. Only Scopely knows the requirements

[manic estuary]

I only have one nonrep daily event, that's a first

[next badge]

This Military Supremacy event is absolutely absurd. How in the bloody hell are you supposed to destroy 500 L40+ hostiles in 3 days, playing reasonable hours?! I’m an L35 and it’s not a matter of being able to hit them, but finding enough of them. And is it even realistic to tear up your L34 ship that much in a few days?

[wispy seal]

@next badge You can buy an epic ship and finish the event immediately 🙊 💸

[next badge]

Let me start a go fund me page really quick 😁 “L35 looking to complete an event created without a lot of thought or care for players/customers, need $1,500 ASAP, Khan bless!”

[wispy seal]

The new f2p - fund 2 win. Good idea 🤣

[vagrant topaz]

i really like the amount of notificationbanners when grinding for frequenzy modules during those events. really. 4 notifications for 4 modules. perfect ratio on data trash traffic ❤️

i mean, given that a franklin need millions of those... the notifications alone make up for a good amount of megabytes.
i could start measuring in snes games as well.

[lusty rock]

For the love of god why are you giving us so much ore, we dont need more in the first contact sms, i have 5k i cant use

[ruby ivy]

@lusty rock lol, you will use it and much much much more!

[lusty rock]

I know but it useless now when i need crystal, gas and more gas and crystal

[hushed elk]

wtf why did the event end 😅

[neon oasis]

Why are the times offset

Next Dopley apology chest coming tight up

[hushed elk]

why is your event still going when mine is over even though it's not meant to be

[neon oasis]

Old screenshot, didn't have time to post until recently

@hushed elk ^^

[zenith compass]

Why has this event finished early? I never got a chance to complete it, this has happened everyone on server 200

[elder orchid]

It ended at the end of April 5th PST I believe, since that's the end of first contact day.

[zenith compass]

Thats weird as im in Australia and all events normally finish at 2am my time

But maybe this one was different

[vagrant topaz]

well... the combatpass looks like a letdown to me. will see how it goes, there are 3 weeks of decision making for another purchase.

Erm. Why are people who have been scrapping ships being penalized? Couldn't you have introduced a second scrap queue with this? Who thinks up this stuff?

but big thumbs up for the serverwide event. seems like the swarm should be dealt with by everyone together.

I got 7 days left scrapping a ship, I have 2 Franklins to scrap that I couldn't scrap before. So seriously.

I have a second Franklin that I can’t upgrade because I don’t have warp cores. Battle pass will give me a third Franklin.

Can we please get another way to earn the warp cores so we can do something with these extra ships

[vagrant topaz]

if i'd make the decision i'd fuse together frequenzymodules in a refinerytab locked by level. but i am not 😦

Give me a way to speed up ship scrapping if you're going to release events that require ship scrapping. Geez. Penalizing people who are actively using features is nonsense.

[whole notch]

Anyone else pissed off that there's going to be a scrapping related event, with no warning, and it's impossible to speed up ships already scrapping?

Wtf scopely?!?!

[queen saddle]

what happened to going back to the original ticket events?

[vagrant topaz]

scroll to the right side, open up the folder. choose event, pay 10 mission tokens

[queen saddle]

not what I meant. The choices are lackluster

crystal okay yay. The other 2 blech

[vagrant topaz]

seems like gas n ore are already in the swarm missions included

[vagrant topaz]

Sure, for 9,99€ You can “have for free” a extra core 🤣

[long quarry]

New event fail, what do I need a second regular Franklin for that I’m not going to build and no possible way to get the A version bps for when I get to lvl 35???? At lvl 30 I already have a tier 7 Franklin.

[rocky iris]

MAKE THE SECOND RESEARCH BUILDER IN THE FREE BATTLEPASS AT THE END!!!

[cedar moss]

A second scrap crew you say? That will be $40 thanks.

[lusty rock]

Why are there franklin bp in battlepass

[versed onyx]

$20 for a second researcher? No thank you that's going to be a hard pass. $5 was reasonable for the second builder. I'll probably not get the battle pass this month just out of spite.

[naive veldt]

So the 1 day event rewards scrapping the Franklin but I have 4 days left on D3 and it's the only thing in the game that can't be sped up.

That's bullshit.

[rocky iris]

i think they are to scrap it? i saw it soemwhere but you should read the patch notes. this i think: #💬-events-feedback message

[vagrant topaz]

@naive veldt

[craggy urchin]

Really sucks having to earn the free ticket for the ticket events now. Like seriously, how do I magically have more time to play after earning my ticket for the day?

[ionic flame]

Please double check the Separatist Attack Ticketed Event. The bonus points do not appear to be working

[jovial sparrow]

Hello everyone. Complain that the second research project is only available for 20 € and not for 5 € like the second building project. Furthermore, I would like the aid for changing alliances to be reset to zero.

[vagrant topaz]

this will be very very hard for alliances without full 100% active users.
but as usual, just wait and see. not happy with it atm

[candid anvil]

Can all scrapping queue be completed so everyone can have the same start on the event 🙈

[queen saddle]

just need 40 players

most of their alliance milestone events require 50

[sterile raven]

This is awesome! The battle pass gives you bps for franklin... but if you already have franklin a second franklin doesn't help. And you need the franklin to complete the events. Like swarm hunt gives you the event ticket? Our lvl 19 guy in our alliance is locked out because he doesn't have franklin. This is insane

[vagrant topaz]

i know, killing lvl 18 swarms at ops 19 is hard, but has he tried already with a maxed turas?
and if he is ops 19 and does not have a maxed turas... do not encourage him to lvl up that fast

[sterile raven]

I'll check with him on that.

[thick owl]

Scoring on ticketed events is delayed (as usual). Swarm event is an utter joke.

[thick owl]

Still no points for building Defense Platform A as part of the ticketed event. Give me my points or refund my tickets and I'll kill hostiles.

[thick owl]

Currently building Defense Platform C. Will expedite it after dailies reset. If I still haven't gotten ANY points I'll expect compensation for the SCREW UP.

[dense thorn]

I'll never pick the Research Ticketed Event ever again. I've completed over 2 months worth of research using lat and speedups, and it's still 100K away from completion.

[vagrant topaz]

So I need to complete an event to gain access to another event? Well done scopley. First ever iteration of ticketed event I could live with, now you’ve found a way to phallus it up even more

[zealous jay]

@hallow sky paid for battlepass, get the first reward, second rewards locked. Sort it out please. I'll have a free 2nd research as compensation cheers 👍🏻

[wispy knot]

It is like having a Sarcophagus event and giving out Kumari Bps

[violet pulsar]

It was advertised as finishing before the server maintenance window.

[frozen dock]

Between 40 - 100 ships for the ticket event it even worse than military supremacy which i don’t bother with as the spawn rates for L40’s is to low

[vagrant topaz]

Loooool. 620k research Points??😂😂😂😂

[lusty rock]

I do t even get the point of the build and research tickets, who can hit that goal

[vagrant topaz]

i did, but took my time reading first

[pure zinc]

I also did not get points for upgrading a defense platform

I spend 3-4 months of speedups and still barely hit 2nd tier

How the poop can i get 800k pts with nothing from def platforms?

[vagrant topaz]

i heard that defence platforms don't always count as being a part of your station. i know, seems weird that it helps in normal events.

but as a little help. maybe ship xp?

[pure zinc]

Upgraded acad 38, r&d 38, ship hangar 36, scrapyard from 28 to 35

And i still only have 300k pts

[vagrant topaz]

so while i'm at it... lets finish that one as well... i accumulated a bunch of eventtickets in dos3

not hard at all

[pure zinc]

Good for you. Maybe you should ask scopely to raise the price of your packs and double the amount of points then?

[vagrant topaz]

its not my fault, when other people don't read

Lol, only 75k points😅

use your scrapyard

Yeah, got no Research points😂

By scrapping...

but ship xp

no more discussion, i'm done

Oh yes. But doesnt help at the Research tree

😅

[pure zinc]

75,000 points versus 787,500 points was my top tier. I read the event but its not my fault the game doesnt disclose how much power each building is and counts like 500 power for 30 day buildings

Oh did i mention i spent 1 billion steel?

The event points system should be adjusted

[vagrant topaz]

just for you, i still have over 47k ship xp from scrapping phindras and fortunates alone. if you don't have a 100k ship xp, you should reevaluate your strategy.

[pure zinc]

I have 1.4 million ship xp. You are completely missing the point.

I also have 75 million officer xp

Why not disclose what buildings give what point values?

Why are you against changing the scoring system to have building power worth more points?

[vagrant topaz]

if you don't know the outcome, why not choose the more safer route. and now please stop it

[pure zinc]

Or at least list out what buildings have what point value? Force me to go to LCARS third party to figure it out?

This is an event feedback channel, you are the one trolling.

[thick owl]

Yo Scopely, if upgrading Defense Platforms DOESN'T count for the ticketed event, REFUND my tickets. As it is, I can't contribute to Alliance or Server milestones today. It's bad enough that I've dumped RSS, Mats, Speed ups and Latinum into Defense Platforms A and C but I'm getting ZERO for it beyond The Prime Real Estate daily. I don't want to get a mealy mouthed response from some clueless CS drone telling me that I'm SOL sometime tomorrow.

[vagrant topaz]

So how do I get warp conduit to upgrade my 2nd Franklin. Not Franklin a.

[lyric lily]

I think your only option is a store pack that's available on Swarm Sundays but we're frequently raising the need for a F2P option for extra Franklin's still

[vagrant topaz]

With the introduction of the Franklin A, those that want the standard Franklin should still be able to fully tier one without having to spend more to buy a warp conduit.

[lyric lily]

I fully agree

If it's your first, I do believe you can get the components from missions. Just for any extra Franklin's... it's an issue

[thick owl]

@lyric lily , what can I do about Defense Platforms not counting towards Combat Prep? Already submitted a ticket, but at this point I'm unable to contribute to the Alliance and Server Milestones today. The event CLEARLY say gain power by spending ship XP or by Building. All I want is tickets so I can do the Separatist event.

[lyric lily]

That's a tough one @thick owl. I know there's some difference between your actual buildings and the weapons around your base but it was never communicated quite clearly. I just recall this being a topic on previous events as well. I'm afraid that besides the ticket, there's not much more to be done at this stage.

I'll forward that this has been an issue however, hopefully something can be done in future runs.

[shy grotto]

the bonus for the ticket event separatists attack doesn't work 😡

[thick owl]

@lyric lily , thanks for forwarding this. It hurts to lose out on event rewards (I would have liked the recruit tokens but the Separatist awards would have been fine).

[lyric lily]

Make sure you check the points on the event page itself, not the banner you see appearing ontop of your screen. That one's inaccurate.

[lyric lily]

Understandable. I sent in the following:

Could the tooltips be adjusted to include explicitly whether Defense Turrets are or are not included?
In this event they were not to some surprise of players ,leading to frustration as they were 'Building a turret' and it just says 'Building' - not 'Building a Building'.. if you get what I mean.

[thick owl]

@shy grotto , don't know what level you are but a single level 38 hostile in Wolf, Mempa or Altanea is more points than 4 bosses AND you get better loot.

[shy grotto]

i know. it was a message from my ally members. i'm lvl 38 btw

[lusty rock]

If turrets dont count, do dry docks, they all say building upgrades

[craggy urchin]

It feels like the battle pass is getting weaker every month. This month's pass feels like it is barely worth purchasing.
Are other people feeling the same way or is it just me?

[prisma kraken]

Nothing feels like it is worth buying anymore

[lofty imp]

Where do you find the warp interlock for the new Franklin?

[iron python]

There will be a new mission chain made available via a gift chest. It has not been distributed yet. Team is checking on ETA.

That chain will have the franklin A parts.

[lofty imp]

You give us a new ship and no way to upgrade it. Typical Scopely.

[terse zenith]

Stfc players greatest moaners the federation ever explored😅

Live long and moan 🖖🏻

[obtuse wraith]

Add me to the list. Not fun.

[lyric lily]

@thick owl @obtuse wraith I've been pointed out that there's been an help article on the subject, that's all I have to share for now.
https://scopely.helpshift.com/a/star-trek-fleet-command/?p=all&s=common-questions&f=upgrading-defense-platforms---power-creep

I understand nobody reads those (I didn't) and I'll still stick with the feedback that I've sent in on this.

[obtuse wraith]

Hold on a minute. Does this scaling make sense to you? 1.5M points in event is a massive 75k power points via buildings.

How else if not with a turret power?

Same shit scaling with the research event.

It needs 155k points of power for 1.55M event points

[junior violet]

The points needed on these ticketed research and station events are beyond ridiculous and the turrets are not even providing points for the station event. I want my tickets back for those events, this is crazy.

[lofty imp]

@terse zenith I’m sorry I spend 1500 a month on this game. I expect it to work, not be half ass

[terse zenith]

Ehh that’s quite a lot

[junior violet]

Someone on my server drops that each day.

[obtuse wraith]

Please make it clear that the event does not mention at any point the power creep mechanic of dailies so this absurd explanation from help cannot possibly be acceptable

[thick owl]

@obtuse wraith , I agree. Power Creep has ZERO to do with this event. That's a cop out so they don't have to compensate those of us that wasted tickets due to utterly garbage wording for the event.

[brazen belfry]

I feel like people who got the ship shards in the last event are getting hosed now. I was expecting some kind of skin economy with the shard tracker. The very next event the shards can’t be used. Disappointing.

Especially considering only the #1 person in each level/event got a complete skin. All the others that placed got shards.

[silver briar]

Where is Lorca?

[blissful zealot]

I still hate gain power events.
Example:
Ticketed events - Complete Research
I had a 60 day research going (Romulan ore)
I blew through all my speed ups in an attempt to complete "Complete Research"
Didn't even reach first tier of rewards.
Please stop using --increase power-- as a quest/mission/event metric.

[steel mango]

One station gun, the most power I can get and it doesnt even finish the first tier

The fk is this

Research is worse at least I can theoretically do the other one by litterally upgrading everything on my station

[vagrant topaz]

@steel mango someone from scopely posted this earlier. I think it's bs, but that was their official response: https://scopely.helpshift.com/a/star-trek-fleet-command/?p=all&s=common-questions&f=upgrading-defense-platforms---power-creep

[steel mango]

Well that's bull

Now I have to waste my resources on multiple buildings instead of saving resources

[tacit rapids]

I was just coming to ask about this. So there's no plans as of yet for an extra set of warp parts for the original Franklin from an event or new mission?

[versed cove]

I'm having an issue with the new swarm Dailies, I'm 43 it say 20 43+ and 25 35+, However the 35, 37, 39 and 41s don't count only 43s

[vale shore]

Once again, a new ship that's op lvl locked.

[gleaming goblet]

So I order to complete the ticketed events a player has to buy them? Cause the only tickets shown in the battle pass are in the 4th milestone?

[pallid sand]

The ticket for today is in the swarm solo

In 4th milestone, there are mission keys

[lofty imp]

When do we get the chest to upgrade the warp drive on the Franklin

[lofty imp]

Scopely get your head out. You don’t put a ship out without having the ability to upgrade it.

[lusty rock]

@gleaming goblet they buried them so you could do some extra grinding

@craggy urchin yes you are right, the higher you get the less useful it is as it doesnt scale with ops, this pass lost four days for franklin bps, another for a frame and lastly a day for a couple shards, its not your imagination

[brisk osprey]

In Alliance events a member cannot receive an award unless they have contributed to the Alliance score before the milestone is reached. It occurs to me that members, who do not return from work until well after 5 p.m. UCT time, are disadvantaged if the first milestone is too low. Other members of their Alliance could pass that milestone before the late workers have had an opportunnity to contribute.

[lusty rock]

Not sure thats how it works,

[pliant vault]

The balancing is off on the ticketed research event, way too difficult to complete, at least at lvl 44.

[fervent fox]

I bought a Franklin core pack about a year ago for a 2nd franklin, I finally got to t8 with it and now I can't upgrade warp to go t9 because apparently the t9 core wasn't in the fkn pack!!!! And still arguing with wish-a-support about it. Just FYI if you buy the packs make sure you get everything you need in it, or don't buy it till they fix it

[manic dagger]

60 days building time for Franklin A, shame on you scopely. They continue to milk cash cows but I think it's enough!!!!

[thick owl]

Still NO response from the ticket I put in 12 hours ago on the badly worded Combat Prep event. I'm going to lose any chance of getting awards as Defense Platforms DON'T count (although it says nothing to that effect in the event description). I don't have enough unspent Ship XP to make a dent and my only upgradable module is Drydock D which would set me back in upgrading my Shipyard to level 35. IF this event had stipulated that Defense Platforms don't count I would have used my tickets on Separatist Attack. At this point, I'm expecting to be completely shafted by Scopely. I guarantee that if I was a whale or content creator, I would have had a response to at least open the lines of communication. Maybe someone that's not just a volunteer will see fit to at least communicate. If that's too hard, tell me why I should continue to play this game.

[kind slate]

hello Jess if you need to do a mission to access the parts to upgrade the new Franklin, then you can only have one new Franklin A, right ? i currently have two old Franklins, one maxed another one T6 due to missing engine warp coil. i would have the same problem then not being abale to progress the new franklin a after the first one.

[graceful knot]

hi all ... ask .. if i build fränklin-A now. Do I have disadvantages then? or will that be credited to the event ... later?

[marsh osprey]

there is a build event coming ... up to you if you want to wait or not

[graceful knot]

👍 thx

[little plover]

Far to much grinding just to get tickets 👎

[ivory token]

Have I already mentioned ...

#bringbackhelps

[severe raven]

This is not the event you’re hinting towards

[modern urchin]

MAJOR BUG 65 days is clearly a error

[modern urchin]

Do you have 60 days of speedups

[ivory token]

Just visit other alliances to bring down the timer ..oh .. no ...wait .... 🖕#bringbackhelps

[uneven relic]

😄 hahaha

[glacial cave]

AND THAT WAS NOT A BUG! IT WAS A GOOD FEATURE!

[noble thistle]

Seperatist event multiplier not working either.

[uneven relic]

are you checking this with your point in the event and not looking at the Pop up banner??

[exotic scaffold]

BTW, what was the purpose of absolutely NUKING the Battle Pass rewards? I should spend money to get 6.4M dilithium on milestone 3? At level 41, what exactly is that supposed to do for me? I swear, the people who design this have never played the game.

[marsh osprey]

see ingame news ... they tell you

[thick owl]

@noble thistle , what level are you? Anyone that's blindly hitting Separatist Bosses for this event is nuts. I'd I went that route it would be over 400 kills. 100 kills max hunting level 38+ Hostiles.

[sterile lance]

@hallow sky what's with the ridiculous build time on the Franklin-A?? People are of course scrapping their max franklins within 24hrs which is acceptable but nearly 60days to build the new one after alliance help is kinda crazy!

[lean prawn]

This is all a perfect storm for pissing people off. Removing the extra helps from switching alliances, AND putting a 60ish day build time on a ship central to the current arc without any warning before scrapping max franklin. It's like scopely is giving us a big middle finger

[summer jasper]

And apparently the skin tracking shards are worthless now. So get your money back from Apple if you spent anything to compete in the skin events.

[sinful heart]

Yup, scopy just trying to push people away. They looked like they were on the right path, guys the greedy asshats got back in the planning rooms again

[little plover]

Incomplete ticket event because there's to much grinding.. if I can't do it then most people won't be completing it... Massive fail scopely 👎

[modern urchin]

Meh, this game is already a chore to play. I mean so much stuff to do.. I was never a fan of aliance swopping but the 60 day build on the Frank-A without some kind of warning that I was effectively shafting myself out of the game for two months is a bit much

[hollow blade]

My daily requires me to kill 39s which is fine, but in w80 which is not fine. That’s the result of putting scotty. Guess I’ll try some other crew setups.

[vagrant topaz]

Or they're just making you burn all your Mycelium discoing up a ship - and putting the refine cap for mycelium so low you can't use it much

[vagrant topaz]

65 days?????

So I just scrapped my only Franklin, and have to wait 65 days. How am I supposed to do the swarm killing event on right now?

This is complete and utter bullshit

[modern urchin]

Yeah I am in the same boat, even using all my lat and speedups I still need another 30 days

Cant do shit in this event now, I would have kept my OG frankie if I knew about this bullshit

[vagrant topaz]

Yeah same here. I have a second, but can’t get it past tier 2 because there’s no way to earn those warp cores.

[spring marlin]

summon it

[spring marlin]

buy the old one? for $$$ of course 😄

and buy the 2nd shipyard

for 50$.... do you hear BugLagely ?

[hollow blade]

I’m lvl 38, my disco can’t go w80

[spring marlin]

ok, so you need to buy speedups then .... I'm just joking sorry, but buglagely seems to have big fun time with us 😄

[vagrant topaz]

"buglagely" that one took a while, but it made ding nevertheless

[lofty imp]

Where is the warp interlock for the Franklin A?

[hallow sky]

we're looking into ways to help players to speed up this

[vagrant topaz]

I hope that includes refunding anyone who burned all of their speed ups and lat so they don’t get left out of events

[ivory token]

Can you guys also look into the insane build times in general ...my researches are 40d-100d+...not being able to hop alliances to reduce it at least to a reasonable amount of days gets me frustrated aaaa lot

I mean ...really...a lot

[lusty rock]

Reset helps daily

[hollow shoal]

So this separatist attack, Its not giving the 2X points for special hosties.

[mild glacier]

It is, the special hostiles are just worth very few points because they are low level

[lyric vessel]

Why don't I get points?

[warped rivet]

@hallow sky isn't there supposed to be "improve my house" event today according to the news in-gane? For lvl35+?

[kind slate]

i only have to wait 49 days

[lime shadow]

I find it bizarre that you have removed the ability to move alliances for help. You always push people to progress with domination events, race to ops etc (because you therefore keep players active and more likely to spend to reach certain goals) and then you do something which will totally stagnate growth for everyone except the most die hard whales. Unless you do something to address this, a large number of players will get bored with the snails pace progress and quit or certainly log on less as there is less to do while you wait SIX MONTHS for your ops to level up(this means less money scopes! 😱). A simple solution would be to have helps reset everyday as in other games.

Add on the fact that you release a new ship with the arc that takes players 50-60 days build time whilst taking away the only free way to speed that up is beyond farcical.

[vagrant topaz]

You can’t tier up the Franklin-A until you reach ops 37!

The difference between 35 and 37 is massive! Thousands of uncommon and rare resources. Months of build time now that moving alliances doesn’t help with speed ups.

Jesus you screwed this up massively!

[warm cloud]

No, doomsday worms at 32 should be giving 550 x 2 and are only giving 550. If only there was a computer programmer that could create code to deal with this...

[spare creek]

Event is gated at lvl 35 but you cant build the ship until you build the shipyard @ 35 - so research center, academy, and maybe 1 other building 1st. Then scrap and build your frank a. THEN you can be in an event for it? Lost me on this

[lofty imp]

Do not scrap your Franklin for several more days. Scopely is having trouble putting out a chest with the free mission to get the warp interlock needed to get the Franklin A to tier A. Again Scopely has shown it’s in competence to do the simplest thing in game. I spent 100 dollars for nothing again.

[spare creek]

Then I'd ask for a refund....

[modern urchin]

They have 50 days to get the mission sorted 😂 😂

[tough mason]

#bringbackhelps

[warped rivet]

They're not even following the event schedule they've laid out AGAIN

[ivory token]

The t1 performs way better than the maxed old one ... so scrap it anyway 🙂

[modern urchin]

Only scrap if you have 60 days speedups or 18k lat.

[uneven relic]

how so?? whats not been followed

[ivory token]

True that...I’m at the stage of the game where 60days is one of the lesser pains ...if you can’t speed the frank a up don’t scrap, that’s correct

[modern urchin]

Yeah, used everything I have and still have 28 days left

[rugged cargo]

You forget the scrapyard 😉 that has to be on 35 too if you want to scrap your old Franklin

[spare creek]

Ah yes. I knew I was making it too easy! 🤣

[cloud oracle]

well said @lofty imp. Unfortunatelly for them my wallet will be lost for minimum 67 days 😉 or forever.. if i get bored waiting for franklin 😂

[craggy urchin]

Rest and Refine is another poorly planned event. I did my refines before the reset and now have to wait for all the cool downs before I can get the event tickets, so now I have to wait TEN HOURS to engage with anything but the bp points event. I do not have time to complete two events plus dailies, after my refinery cool down is over. Poor planning from Scopely, now I do not get to complete all the events without having to stay up late/inconvenience myself. Garbage.

[blissful scarab]

your fault if you haven't read the event plan 😂

[tidal light]

New biometric refine for swarm event does not register. While 3G registers immidiatly

[vale shore]

Frank A can't get past t2 til lvl 39? sig

[tidal light]

@vale shore that wasn't a secret...

[vale shore]

is to me

[tidal light]

@vale shore wasn't it supposed to be T3 on lvl 39?

Wait.

If you're 37+ and you got the chest with the mission that gives you the warp component, you're good to tier up to T2

[vale shore]

yup, got a crippled ship. again

[visual anchor]

Geez, Scopely. Do you have any understanding of how players play your game? The first thing most of us do when we log in is to run refinery and collect store stuff. Then you roll out events mid morning that need refinery runs? Well, thanks for that. I’ll get right to it in 8 hours when the refinery resets. Meanwhile, I can’t even collect the ticket for the ticket event.

[blissful scarab]

its not scopelys fault if you haven't read the event plan

[blazing oxide]

there is a problem in the Rest and Refine event... I refined Biominerals 100 t2 biominerals but didnt give me any points

[visual anchor]

I come here to play a game, not to read their epic news releases. It’s like War and Peace. If you gotta read that junk to play the game, then I’d be better off just finding a good book to read and quiting the game altogether.

If they really wanted to make their players happy, they’d have rolled out one of those extra refinery run options, as they have done in the past.

[deft cargo]

worst rewards for material spending auction ever

[craggy urchin]

No where in the event plan does it say this is what the event will be and they have not had a refine event like this since I have been playing.

[iron python]

It's been in the in game news for several days. This time it was actually communicated in advance.

They finally found a way to make me mine G2 again.

[modern urchin]

Also mining G2 as I can't do the swarms until my Frank-A builds in 50 days time

[iron python]

I still haven't scrapped OG for that reason. I don't want to sink that many speedups into a ship.

[modern urchin]

well yeah, I would have not scrapped it had I have known in advance.

[iron python]

That part has been communicated to the team - not sure what will be done, if anything, but communication could have been better on that piece.

[dark jewel]

Don't worry doesn't give one into for advanced bio (T2).

[somber hinge]

Whats that new overflowing player with rare armada directives? without reducing respawn time of armadas, they dont help at all.

[blissful scarab]

what really needs to be mentioned is that the rewards for the ticket events are ridiculously bad

[craggy urchin]

1.That says biominerals only, does not mention the g3 refining and only doing biominerals would not complete the event at my level.
2. It's poor planning from Scopely to expect me to read that schedule and restructure my entire play schedule to fit it perfectly.

It's poorly planned man. It's Scopely, they are Scopeless...

[modern urchin]

Also getting bio materials is impossible if you already scrapped the OG Franklin!!

[craggy urchin]

I don't think it's that they do not care. I think they do not play video games themselves so they lack the perspective to realize what seems easy to the rest of us

[wet vale]

Also even if you timed your t2 biomat refines, they're not currently scoring. Complete clown parade as usual..

[blissful scarab]

you should read the whole text, specially the red note 😉

[craggy urchin]

Fine it's there, still poorly planned though...It's bad planning to expect me to change my schedule for the game on my phone

[tidal wind]

The events today are stupid.. The Refine and Relax? WTF. How the heck are we supposed to get the ticket to do the ticket events when you can't refine until you get more stuff to refine. Which in my case will be about 7pm for g3 stuff and after midnight for the bio stuff. So unless I get the ticket after midnight and stay up to do the event I have no chance to complete the ticket event.

[lone iris]

THE REWARDS ARE BAD

Seriously, no jaylah shards?

[errant light]

I don't get why I have the bio refine event when I don't have the capability of refining bio materials.

[high aurora]

You get biomaterials from both sets of Franklin dailies. The under 35 and the over 35

[errant light]

So basically they want me to attack swarms??

[pallid sand]

Swarm event. Attack swarms. Weird 🤦

[blissful scarab]

The worst part on the SLB is that the tickets are useless because the rewards of the ticket events are even worse 😂

[errant light]

I was only thinking of the fm not the rewards from completing the dailies. Which is rubbish as I've already refined them for today.

[timid grove]

Putting a ticket on an event that has a cool down time is just plain STUPID! Why would they do that? Do they not play their own game?

And doing an event that has scoring based on an a refine with a cool down two days in a row is height of STUPIDITY!

[high aurora]

I can’t disagree, but they did tell us in the event post. I waited and my T2 biomaterials didn’t even count.....

[timid grove]

I shouldn't have to change my normal routine to suit some 'designer' vision of how I should play the game

[errant light]

We'll that's rubbish

[cedar moss]

didn't @storm ridge say in his latest vid that they had shortened the leaderboard brackets for these auction style events? Ops 30 here and in a bracket with Ops 34 players 😐

[vagrant topaz]

That speed up chest should have been doubled or tripled. Pile of crap

[timid grove]

The compensation chest did not solve the problem! The entire event is poorly conceived and should NEVER be used again let alone repeat for a second day!

[queen saddle]

the rest event is supper easy I wish we could have tons more like it.

[quick needle]

Can we get some variety in the ticketed event rewards please?
I mean the crystal is nice but I’d like the option of gas as well

When you first ran the ticketed events the options were equal payouts, these really aren’t

[foggy juniper]

"Improve My House" events in the Swarm War are a big F U to people who built and upgraded their Franklin A when it became available and now have no ability to do so further due to level limits on components for tiering it up. Super bad move.

[foggy juniper]

It should have been the event the day it released. Repeat it later maybe. But don't put a pause on it. Luckily at least there are still G3 and G4 mat spends that work towards the event so it isn't a total waste... but damn.

[hollow violet]

The little bit of frequency modulator points is hardly going to make a difference.

[errant tendon]

I agree the comp chest under ops 35 is not fairly weighted. I'm ops 34 and was considering pushing through to 35 to be able to actually participate with a new ship but what's the point now if I use all my remaining speed ups on getting to ops 35 + required building to then not be able to build the ship within the remaining arc as I've run out of speed ups and can't now alliance hop for help 🤷‍♀️

[modern urchin]

Still didnt have enough to finish my A, but at least it might be finished by the end of this ark.

[fleet raptor]

Are those who sped up the full time for frank A before the free speedups were gifted going to get extra speedups/lat back in compensation?

[zealous brook]

The ticket events are harder than before. And the rewards are less than you invest.🧐

[topaz bone]

I would like to have the lack of domination events (that are tied to the arc) for two months in a row addressed. This is piss poor planning, as many people (myself included) will not upgrade without an event to reward for the effort. So, can we please have one next time?

[spare creek]

There was domination events in the last arc. And a lot of player feedback in the past there were too many domination events...

[viscid phoenix]

Dom event rewards are rubbish anyway.

[modern urchin]

I dont like the alliance help events, at least not when stuff can only be helped once every 60 days.

[topaz bone]

I don’t mean the standard domination event that happened during an arc. I meant arc related domination events. In February they offered TOS Kirk on a dom event. Same with the tribble in the same exact arc. Then they did TOS Spock with the resource spend.

[vagrant topaz]

waiting for jelly event.... would be nice to have every friday

[high aurora]

Second day in a row we don’t get points for refining t2 biomaterials...Come on Scopely...

[opal violet]

Same!

Refined twice and got nothing. Refined a 3rd time and only got points for the 1

[lusty rock]

Im piss about this burying of the tickets, i did my refine before the event so now i wont get it

[high aurora]

The silence is sad.....

[stable ivy]

max g2 and max g3 refines?

[thorny perch]

I have a really crazy idea.. Why not change the rewards of the ridiculous Ticket Events... Every time the same Sh...

[vagrant topaz]

did the same, but we can refine 2x uc ress and 1x biominerals tomorrow. nothing lost. and own “fault”

[vagrant topaz]

BP events for last two days (kill eclipse) are impossible without a pimped out Stella. I’m a high level 27 and I can’t kill any of them. Useless.

[hollow blade]

It’s a bit late for April fools jokes. That’s supposed to be Million right?

[turbid ravine]

Anyone else notice that the separatists event doesn't give the 2x points for killing Borg?

[tender wraith]

same with Doomsday worms...

[vagrant topaz]

forgive me for asking: are you checking the points scored via the actual event scoring screen rather than the toast banner notifications?
the toast banners are known to be completely inaccurate

[uneven relic]

It does, it doesn’t show up in the banner but if you look at your score before and after it does

[turbid ravine]

Got it.

[uneven relic]

The banners only give the base points, and not show the bonus points

[main crater]

Any i dea when we will be able to earn bps for frank A?

[lime shadow]

At level 35 and above you can scrap the original Franklin to unlock all the Franklin a bps

[wooden blaze]

Or you can buy it at ops35 and keep the old one. Team mate did!

[uneven relic]

Yes you can if you want to buy it.

It’s for sale now, it may or may not be available later, but I’m sure it could be

[uneven jolt]

The improve my house event is a nice event, and the new divided of smaller box for auction event. But box for 36 37, is a bit off. The lvl 37 can have a T2 Franklin, so they can spend more modelators then the ops 36 players can. So it would be more fare to have the, box to be 35 36 due to same Franklin A tier. And if the below box is 34 35 the 35 players have Franklin A and not the 34.

[graceful knot]

question ... new franklin A, new modulators, everything is wonderful .... the BL‘s schwarn Evend also new? .. no Ka hn and mara ... that would be a jump into the depths of space ...

[craggy urchin]

I think there may be a glitch today again I'm only seeing two ticket events and no way to earn an event ticket in the swarm war events

[thin salmon]

How the hell when you are a fresh 35 without a maxed Franklin and all to build anyway to scrap it can you do this shitty event!!!!!! <@&509691205798592532>

[uneven jolt]

For the Players that have built the Franklin-A. The event shop should have the possibility to buy the Franklin warp core. Or you should get the warp core back after scrapping the Franklin. You, give out Franklin BP, but no it the warp corer.

[vivid mason]

Where are the tickets (ops30) ?

[cursive relic]

Not even that, but in general, getting 100k in 2 days is literally not possible? Especially, since only rare/Epic Armadas are counting.

[deft cargo]

not for everyone ) its just not enough armadas

[tough cloud]

Where are the tickets for those lvl 34 and below? Have a ticket event but no tickets in rewards

[broken shoal]

Ticketed events but no tickets? What's up with that?

[blissful scarab]

100 rare armadas for event whats up with that 🤬

[deft cargo]

enough to launch 5, you get 20k for spending 200 rare directives

[blissful scarab]

thanks

[tender wadi]

Which is great if you have 5 sets of rare directives!

[lament delta]

Any space should mean any space scopley. Eclipse armadas arent counting for impress me.

[granite haven]

So ppl who don't have a Franklin A are fked... Gj scopely

[tough cloud]

Lvl 34 and down are normal rare and epic armadas

[old oriole]

No tickets for the ticket event then 🤦‍♂️

[lament delta]

Some of us are missing the solo swarm event to get the ticket. Some have it. Here is what we should see amd what i see

[old oriole]

Yes I am missing that one

[tender arch]

where’s the daily ticket for the events?

[old oriole]

There should be 2, I'm missing it also

[cedar moss]

<@&509691205798592532> can somebody relay that over to the live ops team (or the scopely equivalent?), so they can roll the events out correctly? It's pretty gamebreaking.

[light flame]

Imprees me event not giving points for directives spent

[lyric lily]

Swarm War contains event tickets?

[old oriole]

Only if you have the solo one, its missing for a lot of people

[lyric lily]

What OPS?

[old oriole]

I'm 33

[lyric lily]

Take it that's not your screenshot then?

[old oriole]

No someone else posted to show what I was missing

[craggy urchin]

ops 28 here, no way to earn event tickets

[thorn pawn]

The "Impress Me" event needs an alternate path for players lvl 35+ that don't yet have the Franklin A... As a player who recently went to ops 35, I can't even participate as I don't have a lvl 35 shipyard yet. Event should be written so that it can be completed easier with the Franklin A, but players without it should still be able to do the event through a tougher grind. If Scopely's goal was to "impress me", they failed... 😆

[cedar moss]

30

[violet pulsar]

Feedback from players in my alliance (top on server) is that requiring rare directives for uncommon armadas is a slap in the face. Players were briefly excited that they could complete their swarm events for the day with one level 40 armada, saw that as a huge quality of life gain, now the rug's been pulled out from them, and they are really not amused,

[peak cliff]

So no way to get tickets for players under 35?

[old oriole]

Looking like everyone under level 35 is missing the event

[tranquil cloak]

Just logged in for the day and how am I supposed to compete in a milestone event when I can't even get to to systems. Need a warp of 75 and the best I can get is 59. My ops is lvl 35 but still need 300 unc crystal to upgrade shipyard to 35 and then have the build time. This event is obviously just for those that can spend money. No wonder I have been getting frustrated with the game.

[slate rover]

Feedback on the new "Impress Me" event... this is absolutely ridiculous for players between 35 and 38. We only get 5 man armadas and a t2 Franklin A. It is not possible to beat a Swarm armada with that, so you are forcing us to fail repeatedly to finish the event.

[violet pulsar]

The 50 USD packs for extra tickets were also appreciated, players are looking at everything other than the bizarrely named separatist hunt event as effectively a variation on domination SMS, just not seeing the value in the packs given the poor quality of events, more so given that the spend is now exclusively 100 USD.

[neon valve]

You gave us ticket events but neglected to give us tickets to do them. AMS counts solo & ticket MS so where's the tickets?!

[crystal geode]

<@&509691205798592532> can we get started on a fix for this?

[old oriole]

The event is missing

[lyric lily]

Scroll up

Have acknowledged

[cedar moss]

Thanks @lyric lily , hopefully they can get it enabled for players sub Ops35

[crystal geode]

thank you 👊

[robust vine]

Where can I get a event tickets? My admiral 35+ has one, but no one who’s lower

[vivid mason]

Thank you John!

[strong anchor]

So no tickets, and a ridiculous Impress Me event requiring 100 rare armadas 🤪 This ain’t working, folks!

[rocky kraken]

Another fuked up event no ticket for ticketed event wtf

[vivid mason]

if you host the rare armadas, you get 20k points

[strong anchor]

Not in my event. 1000 per win

[vivid mason]

look on the right of that box

[sharp bluff]

Very unwise to hold solo events that some people are incapable of participating in.

[cerulean saddle]

Half our alliance is on the fence to quitting to this event...

The other half isn't getting points for spending the armada directives...

[vivid mason]

I got the points hosting an epic

as usual, eclipse armadas don't count

[cerulean saddle]

Nope.

Normal armadas.

[neon valve]

<@&509691205798592532> this weekends events for sub 35 ops was poorly planned. The re-spawn rate of rare and epic armadas is inefficient to support the population of my server, especially since exchange armadas do not count towards the event even though it says "all systems".

[strong anchor]

Rare armadas are rare ... how is this event supposed to work with everyone killing all the rares ? Who has thousands of rare directives laying around?

[cerulean saddle]

On a totally unrelated sidenote: there's a solo running?

We do/did.

[vivid mason]

I've stockpiled the rare from the previous arc expecting something like that

[vagrant topaz]

Say, what's the point of this Eclipse event? I can't take part in this, I don't have Stella yet. And no other ships that can defeat these enemies. And repairing every time is far too expensive. Thank you for nothing

[strong anchor]

Oh now I see the tickets! Buried at the end of a 120 swarms grind! With everyone in the system chasing the same thing! Going to see what’s streaming on Netflix

[granite haven]

<@&509690795536941056> first you screw us with the price of second research slot and now you screw the ppl who don't have a Franklin A.. wtf are you guys doing there? Stupid crewing over and maybe give everyone the 30 shards for free as composition?!!
PS: don't screwing your players over! <@&509691205798592532>

[crystal geode]

We had someone complete it with a kumari

[violet pulsar]

My members are looking at the "Impress Me" SMS together with the conversion to requiring rare directives for uncommon 40 Swarmadas, and they are screaming bloody murder. 10 launches or 50 wins? This is effectively telling players you want back all the rare directives they got from the last arc, after they've told you it was an appreciated gift, and telling them you expect them to buy packs if they've already used them.

[cedar moss]

@lyric lily - the swarm war solo daily just appeared for me. 🙂

[crystal geode]

Our 34 and unders have an event for tickets now @lyric lily

[cerulean saddle]

Mayflower and Kumari worked for me. Partially even better then my stella.

[vivid mason]

@lyric lily Thank you for helping us with the missing event. I see it now

[lyric lily]

Awesome. Thanks a lot for signaling this guys!

[upbeat ferry]

UC armada cost rare to start ?

[tender wadi]

“Impress Me” by initiating attacks against Armada targets in any system..... why then don’t Exchange Armadas count?

[upbeat ferry]

When did this change ?

[violet pulsar]

Dev announcement this morning: #⚡-mod-announcements message

[craggy urchin]

The Swarm War solo daily that gives tickets just appeared for me 🙂

[manic estuary]

Mine showed up also

[high wharf]

So , did the programmers decide to up the spawn rate of Rare and Epic armadas considering there was an event involving them or are alliances going to be choke holded by everyone spending their directives from the last event

[violet pulsar]

And believe me, redesignating all Swarmadas as rare is not going to make people OK with this, not given an SMS that's basically "you need to buy a rare armada pack to complete this".

[timid lake]

For below 35s it looks like only rare armadas are scoring in mud space. Not epics.

[tired sigil]

A huge disappointment, I expect to start paying by the minute for playtime

[high wharf]

Don't give them ideas

[tired sigil]

It seems like every time I give them some of my money they turn around and punish me for not having $10k/year to spend on a game

[tranquil cloak]

I am seriously thinking about deleting the game. This arc is terrible, the events are next to (if not) impossible unless you can spend money.

[magic obsidian]

At ops 35 I can't even do my event because I don't have a franklin a

[tranquil cloak]

Same

[magic obsidian]

And the armadas are gated behind a warp range 75 system

[glacial condor]

So.... how are we supposed to do the swarm armadas with the warp range so high? <@&509691205798592532>

[magic obsidian]

My sally and enterprise can't reach even with scotty

[granite haven]

@lyric lily help the normal players out please

[tired sigil]

I'm the same boat still need 1m frequency modulators to get the final tier of the franklin

[violet pulsar]

"We are making significant quality of life improvements to the game in response to player feedback. After filtering those through management feedback, the most significant improvements are available only by auction, and half of what's left is only available as a monthly subscription per improvement."

[tired sigil]

Who has a warp 75 ship at lvl 35?

[magic obsidian]

It's literally requiring you to have the franklin a

[tired sigil]

Not even the backdoor grind out 10,000 swarms

[tidal light]

@lyric lily evaluate also the points required to finish the swarm event, if I don't have rare directives to launch swarm armadas, I will have to win 50 swarm armadas to finish the event, or lose 100 of them, that is simply unrealistic.

[magic obsidian]

Or a t8 ent with scotty

[tranquil cloak]

My franklin is maxed but still need 300ish uncommon crystal to upgrade shipyard to 35, who knows how much unc crystal to upgrade scrapyard, and not to mention the build and scrap times

[violet pulsar]

The Franklin-A introduction is not like the introduction of the Stella. With the Stella, you could beat Muddmadas effectively with g3 and g4 ships. With the Franklin-A, we blew up trying to round out a Swarmada with a 17m Korinar. You are utterly dependent on the Franklin bonuses and related research.

[tired sigil]

Just buy a few $100 packs it's worth it.....don't worry about eating this is WAY more important

[tender wadi]

You spelled impotent incorrectly!!

[tranquil cloak]

Lol, according to scopley that is true

[vagrant topaz]

This arc has been a disaster and just horrifically planned out.

Giving lvl 35’s a g4 ship when everything else g4 is inaccessible. Making it super expensive to repair, and time consuming to build. Bleeding people dry just to obtain it.

Now you expect people to have hundreds of rare directives lying around to earn shards for an officer added to the game 2 years ago, with dozens of false promises of “coming soon”. What a joke

[tired sigil]

I have to say I've had more negative to say about scopley in the last month than the last 2 years

[lethal walrus]

changing it to rare directives made todays event total garbage, what were you thinking? we got people logging possibly quitting over this BS

[violet pulsar]

Really simply, if you analyze things in terms of how to extract more revenue from the top 2% of whales without working out the story for everyone else, this is what it looks. Even my most spend-friendly players are looking at the SMS together with the directive changes for Swarmadas and seeing wallet vampires.

[blazing geyser]

<@&509691205798592532> armadas events for level 34 players and below are not counting directives used

[granite haven]

<@&509690795536941056> <@&509691205798592532> first you screw us with the price of second research slot and now you screw the ppl who don't have a Franklin A.. wtf are you guys doing there? Stupid crewing over and maybe give everyone the 30 shards for free as composition?!!
PS: don't screwing your players over!

[thick owl]

I don't even know where the Swarmadas are let alone if I can reach them with ANY ship I have.

[tired sigil]

the worst part is nobody cares

[neon valve]

<@&509691205798592532> you cannot expect us to complete an event where there are finite amount of armadas and a low spawn rate. There's no rares left atm on my server, quite literally.

[thick owl]

Best range I can get is on my Bortas. I can reach range 52 on my Discovery to summon ships, but every new swarm system I'm seeing needs range 75 minimum.

[thin salmon]

<@&509690795536941056> <@&509691205798592532> @sand auroraopely I am a player that doesn’t yell that much and I understand that some like to buy everything. But it’s the first time in this game I feel totally screwed up. Fresh 35 and no Franklin A are just screwed up. Thanks a lot for doesn’t care about your players

[granite haven]

Lol 5??

We want 30

[rancid agate]

So either we 5 players in our ally that were dumb enough to get the Franklin A spend a few 100 bucks on upgrades or we waste hundreds of dollars worth of rare directives. How about a nice big finger instead?

[thin salmon]

Best than nothing

[tranquil cloak]

Really <@&509691205798592532> you think that compensation is even close to adequate for those of us that can't even do the event!!!!!!

[jolly dagger]

<@&509691205798592532> <@&509690795536941056> the current tier of events are so out of touch with the player base it's an actual joke, the impress me event, literally got 35 yesterday and I don't have the new Franklin, secondly the amount of rare directives your giving out as rewarss compared to ones spent is just stupid, you guys are so out of touch with the player base

[gusty hawk]

<@&509690795536941056> <@&509691205798592532> Server 163. Not receiving points for starting a Rare or epic eclipse armadas. It states in the description any rare or epic in any system.

[glossy path]

<@&509691205798592532> I am ops34 2 upgrades left for maxxed Franklin, all the bonuses payed out to ops35 plus does not sit right with me, not only will I get Franky A later I will be miles behind face_with_symbols_over_mouthimppoop

[vagrant topaz]

100 rare directives, like the speed up chest, is pîss poor. I’m one of 2 people in my alliance who has the ship, rest don’t have the speed ups.

Leaves all of us with no way to possibly do this event

[pliant vault]

You need to keep level 40 swarmadas using uncommon directives Scopely, switching those to rare is unacceptable.

[hollow blade]

Fixed the name of the event for everyone

[jolly dagger]

And Fyi STOP giving ore and cyrstal rewards all the time WE ALL NEED GAS

[violet pulsar]

And even if your alliance has that many Frank-As, "Impress Me" is 100k points to complete, 10k per launch, 2k per victory. The ability to launch one armada is a drop in that bucket.

[upbeat ferry]

How do you switch them to rare & not tell anyone ? I would rather run Reg rare armadas & wasted my directives

[wet cedar]

You've launched an awful lot of time consuming events at one time. Guess that whole QoL improvement mission was a complete failure.

[violet pulsar]

Comparing this to the armada events in the last arc, people were unhappy already with the number of armadas you had to hit to meet the damage goal in that ticketed event, but people could pretty effectively pool acquiring the directives. That arc had 50 USD ticket and directive packs that made the contribution ante much lower. This is a far worse experience.

[burnt summit]

Scopely you dirty bastards! Do we have to publicly fight with you every goddamned month when you try to cheat us this badly!

[jaunty jay]

Why would you switch Swarmadas to rare directive when we have uncommon coming out of our ears!? The uncommon made so much more sense, the armadas are difficult and we fail sometimes so use up the uncommon. Rares are, well RARE. Scopely you really know how to botch up pretty much anything

[iron lily]

You ask for feedback. I tell you skins are impossible to get at my level. What do you do? You make it harder. Done. People spending more than with jellyfish. Totally waste of time snd rss to try.

[slate rover]

Level 35 to 38 should not require swarm armadas for the "Impress Me" event. At best they can have 5 man armadas with a t2 Franklin A, which means not only are they not able to win the swarm armadas, they are also not useful at helping bigger players complete swarm armadas. A t2 Franklin A is absolutely useless in swarm armadas.

[ripe cairn]

im lvl36 and cant even reach swarm armadas so no event for me

[hexed haven]

"Event team evaluating and looking for ways to improve", really getting bored by these kind of hollow words. Clearly the actions of Scopelie prove that these words are hollow and don't mean anything in the real word. We're getting 🪛ed all the time, there's no improvement

[vagrant topaz]

as you can see you on at scopely not getting credit in the swarm war.. thanks for nothing

[blazing geyser]

<@&509691205798592532> for levels 34 and below, the impress me event is not counting directives used for Exchange Armadas. It will require then to win 100 rare armadas to complete event
The problem is also with players 34 and below... not just 35 and above...

[lyric lily]

Has been escalated

[blazing geyser]

Players 34 and below also deserve a good quality game not just players 35 and above...

[granite haven]

3600 😂

[sour glade]

only lvl 35+ get a reward? nice... thanks for nothing

[slate rover]

I do not know a single 35+ that is happy with this event. We don't get a good experience with this, either.

[sour glade]

Epic Elicpse didnt work for the event super!!!!

[graceful hound]

Level 34 and below have to do 100 rares to complete event?!? And directives aren’t scoring

[sour glade]

Elicpse didnt work ... super

[cerulean saddle]

Three smilies in the end pretty much sums up the whole malarky...

[graceful hound]

We are doing eclipse, but that is an insane number of directives

[sour glade]

i didnt get any points for starting 1 epic

[graceful hound]

Directives aren’t counting, but wins are

[sour glade]

As it says there are directives from

[dim lodge]

<@&509691205798592532> Swarm Wars, are we eventually gonna get credit for swarms done before it decided to show up late for some of us?

[silver briar]

<@&509691205798592532> 34 and below impress me event needs to be counting the exchange directives spent. All the rare and epics outside of exchange are gone on my server and the respawn time is a minimum of 4 hours. The event completion is not achievable. The simple fix is making the exchange armadas directives spent count just like the exchange armada wins.

[sour glade]

<@&509691205798592532> FKING USELESS EVENT

[lyric lily]

HEY.

STOP IT.

No caps

No swearing

[lyric lily]

I'm not aware of any issues with points counting at the moment but perhaps give it a bit

[lyric lily]

This has been escalated

[upbeat ferry]

Yah because caps & swearing are what’s wrong with today 🤣😂🤣

[lyric lily]

I mean if you're me it's what's wrong with today PLUS this 🤷‍♂️

Help a modda out 🤣

[spare kraken]

Not only that the swarm armadas are hard to kill without a whale. Now it's cost are drastically increased. I'm out... enough is enough

[upbeat ferry]

Today would be a good day for a Mod to call in sick 😜

[lyric lily]

Indeed..

https://tenor.com/view/mr-bean-husten-sweet-flirty-bean-gif-15124888

[vagrant topaz]

Scopely this Swarm event is a joke like who ever you all keep paying to code for you who doesnt seem to ever be able to

why are those people still on the payroll?

why is support still on the payroll when they dont help support us players or takes them days after the event to screw us by saying trhe even went as it was supposed to.. even though i sent ss to show it didnt work.

[silver briar]

Thank you so much! It’s nice to be heard. I also didn’t get the swarm war event with tickets at turnover so I have to kill another 50 32 swarms. It’s a small inconvenience but just FYI feedback

[hot bluff]

Really not a fan, Scopely, of the stacked events, i.e. having to finish one event to gain access to the second. Especially today where the first event is almost un-doable for me, but could do a ticketed event if I had a reasonable way to earn a ticket. Frustrating.

[granite haven]

<@&509690795536941056> <@&509691205798592532> first you screw us with the price of second research slot and now you screw the ppl who don't have a Franklin A.. wtf are you guys doing there? Stupid crewing over and maybe give everyone the 30 shards for free as composition?!!
PS: don't screw your players over!

[vagrant topaz]

thanks for what he hasnt done anything.. saying its been escalated is nothing and proves nothing, the game is still broke and they keep refusing to fix it

[blissful junco]

<@&509691205798592532> What about the bonus points for killing doomsday worms all the time, these have not been counted for days

[zealous lake]

I see people have already beat me to pointing out the fact that a thousand players under lvl 35 all need to be in 100 rare+ armadas today when there just aren't that many around to complete. I'm going to wait and see how this plays out

[lyric lily]

I hope I'm not making broadcasts for nothing #⚡-mod-announcements

[vagrant topaz]

your going to believe this same old storyt i sent it up the chain.. blah blah blah lies on top of lies as we dont care about youy players

so far no onbe has helped me with the event so i say its all lies

[zealous lake]

Not sure I would expect it to be fixed in just hours

[lyric lily]

@vagrant topaz Ah so it has to be you in particular. Well I'm sorry that you weren't one of the many assisted so far but I'm still doing a lot behind the curtains so who knows. Meanwhile, have fun calling bullshit all you like. I regret failing you but can't help everyone

What post?

[dim lodge]

I did a full run of 50 32s for the first time, which should have pulled me 1700 points and 4 steps and my tickets, but still nothing. Should I raise a ticket to support?

[lyric lily]

Because I've been mentioning multiple times in here that the Eclipse directives not counting has been escalated, so maybe you could've scrolled up too 😅 @vagrant topaz

[granite haven]

@lyric lily on a serious note mate, how can +l34 players who haven't build there Franklin A yet to complete the event? 30 BP's is a very good reward and not being able to get it is unfair

[violet pulsar]

It's not just under 35s who are get the wrong end of the stick with the "Impress Me" SMS: at this stage odds are pretty long on a 5-seater Swarmada unless you have multiple 46-50 whales who have pushed their Frank-As to max available with packs in your run (we have a handful of these, it still sucks). This event is also miserable for 35-38 players.

[vagrant topaz]

@lyric lily i have killed 26 lvl 35 swarms and scopely gives me credit for 2 yet counted them all in clear the coast... so what would you call it

[granite haven]

I'm also waiting for a response from support if I ever get one

[lyric lily]

Noticing more tags here but having dinner for a bit guys, sorry

[violet pulsar]

Really simple fix: reduce the "Impress Me" SMS point requirements by 10x.

[granite haven]

I need a reply...

[violet pulsar]

Anyone who completes the event with current point requires, gift 500 rare directives.

[granite haven]

Pm'd you :)

[vagrant topaz]

The Impress Me event is just ridiculous for lv35 (even lv37) that they will never beat a lv40 swarm horde since there’s lv caps to upgrade the Franklin-A, and cannot join regulars armadas to get the event done either. Where on earth do you think lv35/37 can go on this, DEAR SCOPELY

[golden summit]

Can you tell how i should do event when i can’t get to warp 75 system?!?!

[noble thistle]

How the hell is anyone supposed to complete this. 100 armadas in 2 days. Even 50 in one is a push

Absolutely disgusted at how scopely is treating players in this arc. This kind of impossible task makes me want to stop Playing again.

[lethal walrus]

You get 10500 points per armada, So you have to run 10 armadas for 1000 RARE directives total, it was uncommon last night then they got greedy and changed it saying it was always supposed to be rare even though they are green uncommon armadas... yeah right scopely

[vagrant topaz]

They are scam us

[lethal walrus]

oh your showing the below 34 event sorry that one sucks too

[vagrant topaz]

This armada event is the first time I have felt that the event is unreasonable. I searched 30 systems that LCARS says has rare or epic. Found 1 at 12Million, and 1 at 6million... Im ops 24, unless I have an alliance full of Sally's, I don't see getting any of this event done.

[rugged cargo]

It's really fun to look for the normal rare and epic armadas to finish this event 😒

[nimble dirge]

Anyone else not getting credit for using directives.? I’ve started 3 rare and an epic and somehow only have around 7k points

[rugged cargo]

Was it in exchange space?

[nimble dirge]

Yes

[rugged cargo]

For some reason you don't get points for starting armadas there

[cerulean saddle]

The points are awarded w/o relating to the armada level... I ran a 27 epic for giggles and got the 35k

[rugged cargo]

Sure, because I want to waste my hard earned directives on some armadas waaay below my lvl

[nimble dirge]

Yet, you get credit for wins and loses? Something is fishy in Denmark

[cerulean saddle]

I ran one for our smaller players, worked out w/ a bit of a meh feeling, but the way this game goes, I went and got rid of dead weight and did something semi-good

[rugged cargo]

The problem is that even IF I wanted to waste my directives on some low lvl armadas it's not possible since basically every rare and epic armada has been cleared in the first 30 minutes of the event 😅

Some people have even started already active armadas to get some points

[cerulean saddle]

Tch.

Very active shard you have there.

[rugged cargo]

And it's pretty low of scopely to force us to waste our directives for the event

[noble thistle]

Yeah and armadas take hours to resepawn. Who has the time to do that many armadas.

[rugged cargo]

Or to look if a new one has spawned every couple minutes

[noble thistle]

Or some other alliance decides to hog them all.

[cerulean saddle]

Agreed on that. Actually thinking of quitting entirely

And judging by my Ac half of the actives.

[noble thistle]

Same here in my alliance.

[cerulean saddle]

Wondering that Reddit isn't vitriolic.

[tired sigil]

Wow free gift! 5 shards and 100 directives. Incredible half measure!

[rancid portal]

Scopley...you’ve outdone yourselves in unfairness and stupidly with the Franklin A events!

[noble thistle]

Scopely i know people complain on every event but this one is incredibly bad. You need to fix the milestones and the cost of the armadas. also most people cant even get a franklin a yet

[thick owl]

At ops 35 without my Shipyard upgraded I can't even get the Franklin A. Can't find any Swarmadas that ANY of my ships can reach. How am I supposed to even attempt Impress me? This add an entirely new level to STUPID from Scopely.

[rancid portal]

Aren’t there laws against this kind of gameplay fleecing?

I believe they’ve pushed the line t

[tired sigil]

but, but, we gave you the free gift

[cerulean saddle]

Not that I know of, because that's an entirely new level of viciousness.

[thick owl]

Best thing would be to show CBS how screwed up this is. Maybe they'll pull the plug on this dumpster fire of a company.

[cerulean saddle]

Eh, if CBS is anything like disney, they don't give a quarter of something.

(Referring to MSF, and the dumpster fire it is)

[rancid portal]

If I was offered half the money spent over the past 2.5 years on this game to never play again. I’d seriously consider it

[noble thistle]

Yep i feel bad for all the players who support their alliance mates. To have to pay that amount to get the directives and even then still be unable to complete due to a shortage of armadas

I feel sick at this. Its a stain on the star trek franchise. This kind of greed is why we have war still and aren't worthy of ever traveling past our solar system

[tired sigil]

I really have no words for this. they've always skewed to the whales. I can get behind that they are the money makers. but this is messed up

[rancid portal]

I’ve invested so much to just quit the game and they know it. They are taking advantage of my habits like a gambling addition

[tired sigil]

scopley coming up with todays event

[rancid portal]

There are laws against that

[turbid sphinx]

That reward only for players 35 and above is absolutely unfair. We've been running armadas , lvl 29, 26, 29, 27, 32... what about our wasted directives?

[high aurora]

I’m literally the only level 35+ in my alliance with a Franklin A. I guess they expect me to flush 1900 rare directives down the toilet since I have zero chance of killing a swarm armada solo?Guess I will be skipping this event

[daring snow]

I think you forget a 0 at the end for reward of killing armadas in current event? Should be 10000 instead of 1000? To join 10 rare armada kills in two days is really hard for most of the players... but to join 100 is absurd!!!

[frozen bone]

I think it is safe to assume they never learn... Bad rewards, unreasonable goals and no armada targets. 😂

[thick owl]

I can't even find a regular rare Armada at this point. As soon as one pops 3-4 people tag it just to burn directives because of the PATHETIC spawn rate. Why don't you tell Old Man to stop hiding under his desk like a coward and speak to us DIRECTLY about this FIASCO.

[cerulean saddle]

my habits like a gambling addition
Google the term "predatory monetization". 's what's happening here exactly.

[thick owl]

Let me put this in terms that the Bean Counters might comprehend. WoW TBC Classic is coming soon (it's in Beta and I expect the pre patch within 60 days). If you don't get you act together I'll simply play WoW Classic full time and stop dumping money into this latrine.

[novel totem]

Being Ops 36, I can cope with having only a lvl 40 franklin. I could have easily upgraded it to lvl 45 in the previous months but I chose not to. So buying that 20 currency pack to get the missing BPs for the was kind of o.k. But the current armada event is really a kick in the balls. It's basically suicide your ship 10 times. If you are smart you use vemet and only repair 5 times. This is just very bad game design. I understand that Jayla shards are not for free. but this is just unfun.

[glacial condor]

@glacial condor

[timid lake]

Sucky event for those below 35 too. Waste a few rare armadas. Puke n

[vagrant topaz]

Waste a few armadas and a lot of time looking for them

[wintry flint]

I’m OPs 35 and haven’t unlocked the shipyard/scrapyard to get the Franklin A yet so I can’t do the impress me event at all. My warp range is maxed at 60. Really disappointing that I can’t take part. Didn’t you learn from the event last month where only certain ships could take part! Make it available for everyone!

[vagrant topaz]

Been steady looking for 3 1/2 hours now and only found one

[cerulean saddle]

I don't envy the Mods, but props to them ;X I probably would've blown up by minute 10.

[tidal ruin]

I'm fine with an armada event, except the armadas that count cannot be found anywhere right now. clarifying I mean for lower than ops 35. If only rares and epics are going to count, at least make them available to start. Change the spawn rate, lower the timer, I really don;t care, just to have the available would be nice. If I had spent money on directives before seeing if they were there I would be furious, because I would have bought directives for something that apparently doesn;t exist.

[thick owl]

@wintry flint , I'm in the same situation. Can't do the event and can't even farm rare Armada credits because of the PATHETIC spawn rate.

[ivory token]

Yeah like that helps

Who is scaling the rewards over at your hq?

[vagrant topaz]

Lol I don’t see how everyone’s gonna be able to do it honestly, a couple hundred people all needing 5 rares, and they’re on what a 1 or 2 hour timer?

[silver briar]

So they screw up impress me event and change the text in the event instead of compensating for their screw up. Nice. Now it’s merely impossible to complete since rares have a minimum 4 hr respawn

I’m so fed up with this bs

[round wagon]

No rare armadas to be found anywhere - if you launch an armada event asking for a ridiculous amount of armadas to be started, at least make sure that the armadas respawn quickly. Players who can't start armadas need to defeat 100 rare armadas in 2 days. Do your math.

[pliant vault]

Iso emulsion rewards for the Swarm War event are minuscule. Multiplying them by 10x would be decent. Right now it’s just a joke.

[iron sphinx]

Here's some feedback. The current bp only gives tokens for franklin. That's useless to me since I have have Frank already and it's not very good, I have no interest in building a second one. Why don't you let people who have franklin swap their blueprints for franklin a. That seems fair to me, you did this with epic gas, you can do it again here

[pliant vault]

Requiring rare directives to start uncommon armadas does not make any sense, full stop.

[kind slate]

i dont understand the point of the swarmadas event. i am the only one from my alliance who can reach the system, the other players are too low in ops. and then whats the point of starting an armada to get killed and start ten times again ? and looking at the number one alliance on my server... they also fail blatantly on even the lowest swarmada. i dont understand it. its supposed to be fun and a team event. its neither.

[outer oyster]

The impress me event is almost impossible to score in. There are so few rare and epic armadas out there. As soon as one spawns people find it right away and target. The event requires too many points, and there are too few rare/epic armadas/they spawn too slowly. Really should include uncommon armadas

[round cape]

What a stupid event with the armadas. Would like to open one but there are no more rare or epic left.
Would be better if they use uncommon as well. But this is bullshit.

[signal cloak]

The impress me event sucks. There is literally no way to score on ops 35 if you haven't built a franklin a

[iron lily]

At ops 35 plus it is p2p only

[tidal ruin]

I am not impressed by the Impress Me event. #someonehadtosayit

[iron lily]

They assume if you are that strong you have spent money and will spend more money to play

[lament delta]

So in summary for Impress me event:
Under 35.
You are forced to only do rare or epic rare aramadas, which are already impossible to find.
(You can finish eclipse armadas, but you'll have to do 100 of these)
Most likely you'll have to waste them on small rare armadas, which is a waste of directives.
35 and over.
Assuming you can build the Franklin A, which some cant do for such reasons as:
Not having the rss to finish buildings required, not having speedups to finish the ridiculously lomlng build, or not having a max Franklin because swarms were never something they liked doing.
You can then do swarm armadas, which are too difficult for most players under 40 and basically just waste your directives to get points for starting.

All of the above assuming you have 1000 rare directives to even do them, which many don't keep extra of

I summarized the problems. Feel free to add any i missed

@storm ridge 👆

[hexed haven]

Can't wait for the next vid from Rev, that's going to be a slaughter

[granite haven]

Did scopely strip his content creator tag? 😅

[iron sphinx]

I would add that maxing franklin is ridiculous anyway, nobody wants to going that much, which means spending money on the packs is the only way, and people know its useless so they won't do that.

[hexed haven]

They couldn't stand real feedback, and only like sheep-like followers

[granite haven]

Guess they didn't like the truth

[iron lily]

I maxed my franklin for free but it took 6 months to do it. I have. 1k t3 franklin a and hardly dent swarm armadas. I can solo rare 35 in both eclipse and regular armadas but even the weakest swarm with leslie is completely unkillable. Not to mention uncommon armadas are now using rare credits wtf

[tranquil magnet]

Here's my feedback. I'm ops 35, but not shipyard 35 so can't do the franklin a yet - almost have enough crystal to upgrade. That being said, i can't do the swarm armadas yet so I can't do the event Impress Me - seems like participation should be based on shipyard level and not ops level. I don't even have the option to do rare/epic armadas - just swarm.

[thick owl]

@tranquil magnet , welcome to my world. Don't expect SCREWPLY to care how badly we're SCREWED by this.

[waxen mango]

Some feedback, wasted my speedups 56 days worth, for an event that requires me to waste mycelium (or 15minutes), rare directives and time, only to lose an armada and waste more resource and time. Really out doing yourself this time scopley.

And why on earth do uncommon armadas need rare directives??????????

[broken pagoda]

If you are going to have a rare and epic armada event (20+) you need to increase the respawn rates on the armadas or include eclipse. I don't have all day to endlessly scan systems. Come on Scopely get it together! Another armada event and the same old tired rant when nothing gets done. Why even have a feedback channel if you don't take any feedback?

[toxic wraith]

@waxen mango because event was coded on rares and epics only but swarmadas were unc. So they switched it when noone could score

Sub 35s stuck atm cos spawn times on rares an epics

Eclipse and worm don't count just reworded event from all systems to exclude those 2 types cos weren't scoring

[ornate monolith]

Points on the ticket event DO NOT work for increasing base power, submitted a ticked, but a level 37 defence platform should complete it easy, but scored 0, like Britain in the Eurovision (and I’m British 😂)

[toxic wraith]

So now limited to few rares and epics, but epics spawn every 10hr and rares are just being spammed

@ornate monolith defence platformsdont count

[ornate monolith]

Why

[toxic wraith]

But no other building counts enough

[ornate monolith]

It’s a module surely

That’s rubbish, yet on the normal event for increasing power, it does

Game getting worse, devs getting greedier, I’m out, better things to do

[broken pagoda]

They said several days ago that defense platforms don't count because they are treated like ships. I know insert eye roll here.

[hexed haven]

Anyone else having megacube flashbacks already? Can't wait for those to return to see how they've managed to screw those even worse than they already were

[ornate monolith]

Thanks, I didn’t see that, but I did one defense platform on the daily event before and it did, so, you know, wrongly assumed

[remote sigil]

<@&509691205798592532> @hallow sky I now have 60,000 out of 100,000

We have already made 30 Swarm Armada's for this.
That has already cost 3.000 hour repair speed.

Honestly, you are not serious.

we should choose to boycott the game.

[vagrant topaz]

While I agree, I’m pretty sure the moderators don’t work on the game lol

They just moderate the discord

[obtuse wraith]

The principle of having two events, one with franka and those without is good. However Execution is poor because:

1. ops 35 who don’t have a franka (franklin not maxed or shipyard not ready) have falling through the cracks. PLEASE base the event provided based on ownership of Franka and not on ops lvl.
2. the event for those without franka should include uncommon armadas in the score and frequency modulators in the rewads

[vagrant topaz]

Wow, this armada event is the stupidest thing scopely could have done. I say everyone that spends should just stop lining their pockets, the greedy bastards...

[halcyon turtle]

The event "Impress me" should have been coupled with a much faster spawn of rare armadas. I completed it but only by launching 4 rares that I knew I wouldn't be able to complete because they were taken out before my timer would have been up.

Alternatively, make any armada score not just rare or epic. (though why are R Armada directives worth 100 points when E are worth 70?) You could easily have included normal armadas by saying 50 points for normal directive, 100 for rare and I suppose Epic should be 150 per or 200 per.

Also win/lose points could be win 500, 1000, 1500 and lost 250, 500, 1000

[manic estuary]

epic should be 2 1/2 times rare

[lapis torrent]

Need smaller swarm armadas for people with t1 and t2 frankies and have uncommon use uncommon directives if it uses rare make them rare with better rewards and actually winnable buy teams of 5 without having to have big players only

[maiden sable]

I’m not sure what is going on in the combat mechanics of the Hoards but it is completely whacked out.

[gentle sun]

I don't even know where to start. This is a giant cluster. There's literally no way we can complete this event without buying a lot of rare directives, which I can't do right now. Who thought this was a good idea?

[open otter]

I'm sure everyone else has been saying this already but either make rare directives easily accessible or don't run events that require pure rares.. The swarm armadas aren't with the directives to begin with payout is mediocre and dailies give out the same resource anyways

[lean peak]

What a joke this Armada Event even if you have the rare and epic directives there are not enough Armadas to do it. Waisted the whole evening searching for them . Who ever is responsible for Events that are set up to see who has the lost Money to throw out the Window should be ashamed of him/herself

[abstract pier]

I do not fall into this category, but I recognize that a lot of people do. So, if you are ops 35, the. You have to run or join swarmadas. However, not everyone ops 35 or higher has a maxed Franklin (so they can’t get a Franklin A yet). Also, not everyone over ops 35 has a ship with warp 75 (or 70 with Scotty or 63 with TOS Scotty, synergy, and cadet Scotty). So, people can’t actually join or run a swarmada that they are required to do because of their ops level. I think this should have been a requirement if you had a Franklin A not just by ops level

[neat portal]

Where are the swarm armadas?

[gentle sun]

the only option in my cash store to purchase rare directives is 1200 directives for $99. Um, not just "no", but "HELL NO".

[undone idol]

Impress me is a terrible event, rare armadas are no where to be found. Don’t require a specific target if you aren’t going to increase the respawn rate

[merry meadow]

The swarmadas costing rare directives is insane. Until the very generous alliance milestone events last arc which handed out rare directives like candy rare armadas took weeks to get enough for 1 armada attempt. Asking people to kill 5-6 of these swarmadas often at 4 attempts per kill (300-400 directives) is ridiculous. Whose idea was it to change it to rare directives after two days of them costing uncommon?? They clearly don’t play the game and understand it’s dynamics at all.

[frigid meadow]

I can't find any epic or rare armadas. This is ridiculous.

[blazing oxide]

im lvl 38 with franky A and won the skin and still doing like 2% of hp WTF???

[abstract pier]

The rare is pretty insane for the swarmadas. It was UC rare and epic. Now all rare. I guess if they keep the jaylah shards as a potential reward it makes sense. But still really expensive

[spare creek]

Just adding in. The problem was releasing a 4g ship to players who dont have access to the 4g economy. Its expensive, it takes time to build and you cant build it until you're halfway through your 35 builds. Not just ops 35. Add this to a time they remove the ability to get helps and this even is a giant "goodbye" to midlevel players.
If you're 34 lower it equally sucks. Taking the weekend off. Maybe longer from a person who's been playing since the beginning. Way to alienate your player base

[vagrant topaz]

My alliance has players repeatedly starting swarm madas, wasting 100 rare credits each time, just to not even try and attack the mada...because the reward is crap, plus they are too hard to kill. What a stupid event

[muted trench]

These events are bad, and scopley should feel bad

[vagrant topaz]

On a side note of what else is stupid... How many of us have only 1 ship, capable of 80+ warp..and it's a useless Franklin A? Lol...

[frigid meadow]

I've seen 3 alliances on one armada. Two of them started the armadas just to get the points for spending directives since there aren't enough armadas. These are all from mid level players. Scopely only cares about the high level players that spend money. I spoke to one of the level 45+ players on my server and he told me that once you hit level 40, plan on spending money to advance.

[vagrant topaz]

While we are the subject of stupid things... The ticketed events are stupid (again , just like last time..)

Remember when players complained last time about ticketed events being stupid, and too hard to achieve, and then Scopely changed them in response...and then now Scopely releases more dumb ticketed events yet again.. Pepperidge Farm remembers

Remember that one time when Scopely gave some players the opportunity to get a full Jellyfish unlock just by going from like Ops 39 to 40... Then never offered it again. Now the rest of us peasants are forced to compete for the same blueprints and spend like 5-10 thousand dollars? Pepperidge Farm remembers.. lol

Ok, well I suppose you could grind it from territory, but still a valid point..

But that's only if you alliance owns that particular territory..

[tall grove]

So I would need to complete 100 rare armadas or attempt 100 epic armadas to compete this event….

I get the point of having some events that are a little more “exclusive” than others but this is just ridiculous.

[main ledge]

This armada event is frustrating & is really not making this fun to play. Maybe they should step up the rate of rare/epic spawns during this stuff. Smh

So much for an outlet to escape frustrations of the real world.

[feral sun]

Bait and switch. How are you going to sell a new ship for new armadas... then change the cost of the new armadas 3 days in and say “whoops... it was supposed to be more expensive all along”. It took 3 days to figure out that the uncommon armadas that are clearly marked as uncommon and cost uncommon directives are a “supposed” to be rares? Sounds like fiction to me... why not just change the rewards and call it a day? Scam artists

[north kettle]

Definitely a huge WTF on automatically needing a Franklin A for this event. And ticket event just went hugely expensive for 2 of the 3. Just went ops35. This may finally kill the game for me. I have given up on the app being good, but now events impossible without spending hundreds of dollars quickly?

[feral sun]

Yup, not even bothering with the Impress Me event. 1000 directives for a few Jaylah shards? No thanks, I’ll spend my money and time on something else this weekend. I’m not sure how many chances they are going to give the genius planning events lately but it’s way past time to bench him/her and let the grown ups plan things again.

[vagrant topaz]

All valid points, but sadly.. as long as people keep buying packs, Scopely could really care less about complaints on here.

[urban kettle]

Here’s the feedback: Scopely is terrible at designing armada events, and they sometimes excel at armadas (borg, eclipse) that are so terrible there isn’t a good reason to do them. So much feedback on armada events, so little change Scopely.

[civic gorge]

5 and a half hours with a 6-man crew doing 5-minute swarmadas is a little excessive for finishing an event. I know it’s a 2 day event, but that’s still more than 3 hours a day. Normally I would help other alliance members after I finish, but I can’t stand to see another armada.

[fresh holly]

Stop requiring more spent attempting to achieve things than we get rewarded...and why even give us low amounts of things that we can not do anything with...our inventory space already makes us look like hoarders...require developers to actually play on a server other than demo server ...one with real people as so they get a real feel ...start out as we do ...see how much time and actual struggle they have put us with.

[vagrant topaz]

Yes.

Its about the Money.. Always...... Their response will say, you can always Buy the Required Resources for said event, in the Scopley Store..... We all know this... Scopley is more interested in money, than our hardwork. This is their mindset. IF We all want things to drastically change... We all should get together and not Buy anything from Scopley for a week or 2 or 3. and see how things change... but it takes us all to Stop buying from them... then the Rewards will become more from events, maybe make it a bit softer also..... But we need to stick together and stop buying from them... in all reality, it is a Greed mindset because they know, people will buy into a online game... the rewards have gotten worse in these P2W packs. alot worse since last year. So........... We know they have P2W events.......... all we can do is not play or not pay.......... and what hurts them more.......... No money..........

[simple path]

This Impress Me event is absolutely ridiculous.. and the reward is Jaylah shards, but she only works on the Franklin/Franklin A... Her abilities won't work on other ships so its definitely not worth the money for the packs or the effort to find the rare and epic armada targets.

[woven bane]

first time i have ever agreed with you 🤣

[river merlin]

why are people saying "I cant find Rare's or Epics" Obviously those are in deep space....

[barren forge]

Im glad than developer who desight event with jaylah for players lower than 35 was on crack or somethink like that... because spend 1000 rare armada directive to get reward? realy?

I never spend so mutch to get TOS kirk or 10/10 for a first place

[river merlin]

and you dont even unlock her you only get like 25 shards lol

[barren forge]

they just give as an event and from start they know nobody will do it.. becuase invest is so hight and reward is so low

its like you get free car but you can just look on it not drive in it...

[river merlin]

well everything in this game is rented

you dont own anything even if you spend thousands of dollars like the crazies have lol

if they decide to close business or their license expires from CBS then its over lol

🤣

[somber hinge]

Im lvl34 and i dont know how i am supposed to achive the current 2 day-event.. they flooded us with rare armadas with the goal to start fu...ed up swarm armadas, only possible by lvl35+. And below? standard rare armadas dont spawn enough, exchange dont count.. sooo. yeah thx scopley for another sensless event

[river merlin]

digital goods neeed a huge overhaul in this day in age of "ownership"

[lusty rock]

What i dont get is why arent ppl more pissed at the swarm alliance event, the rewards are pure trash

[low shale]

If you can do the event

<@&509690795536941056> the current armada event is one of the worst events you ever created. If you want us to do rare and epic armadas , you have to ensure that there are targets. It is impossible to find a target. Please change the respawn time for rare and epic armadas and/or include eclipse armadas

[steady stone]

This event is one of the worst ever! 1 Spawn rate is bad as always for armada events... scopely knows and doesn’t change 2 level40 swarm Armadas are too strong, nearly unbeatable with normals FranklinA t2 or t3 what most should have- we are using jelly which is nuts 3 if you are lev35+ and don‘t have a Frank a yet, you cannot participate 4 unc armada cost rare dirs.. what is the logic behind that. Unc would just be ok 5 payouts . Jaylah shards, ok. But wasting tons of rare dirs for it? Not worthy sorry... in sum- total Desaster

[low shale]

This one event is even worse than the last arc. Offers you a goal that is completely just out of sight. It’s a complete disaster. After working all day now I have to spend all night searching every system for an armada May may not be there. And I have to work tomorrow so at some point I have to go to sleep. Just to complete the event. If it’s possible to complete. Which I’m fairly sure it’s not.

[steady stone]

What if you don’t have enough Frank a in your ally because it’s a small alliance or low level players only? No chance to win these swarm lvl40, just spend 1000 dirs and done? Nuts. Why aren’t there smaller targets like for eclipse? Communication Desaster again starting with uc dirs and changing it. Scopely you fûcked it up really ... i really like the rest of the arc but there are always so many negative things like the crappy ticket events. Why can’t you just check how other popular games are doing those things. It is a shame that you spoil the Star Trek theme in such a way. Sorry, really disappointed 😢

[brisk osprey]

If you run 'Impress Me' again, you must provide more targets for Armadas. Banning Uncommon and Eclipse Armadas was not a good move. Did anyone study the mathematics of the 'Impress Me ' Event?

[trim quail]

It would of been far better to allow those lvl35+ with shipyard at lvl35 to build franklin A in this arc then do swarm armadas in the next arc.

[lusty rock]

If you expect ppl to use-save a rss in this case rare directives, makes sure to keep it within an arc series, you really expect too much from your players.

[blissful scarab]

scopely if you want us to make rare armadas reduce the respawn cooldown

[gray grove]

<@&509691205798592532> Dear Mods, please forward this to the important people: Which genius created the event 'Impress me' and forgot to change the respawn timers of the armadas while the event lasts? The people can't start any armadas, because they were gone already after a few hours...

[vagrant topaz]

Just wasted 1000 rare directives solo’ing the event, launching armadas I can’t join, because nobody in my alliance can even scratch these things.

Was saving them up to actually use them and get some rewards. What a screwed up, bullshit event

[noble thistle]

Yep scopely should refund the 1k directives.

[blissful scarab]

they never learn and make every month again some shit

[buoyant tulip]

Feedback: The "Impress me" event is absolute garbage.

[junior lake]

does anybody else feels kinda scammed by scopely with the "impress me" event? At first they implement a nice event that everybody can get blue directives, then they even sell blue directives, now you are forced to waste these directives in order to get any progress in the impress me event, due to armadas not respawning fast enough or not haveing enough blue and purple armadas.
that is just pure garbage. it's the same with every armada based event, eclipse aswell.

please scopley, if you do armada events it's fine, but double the respawn rate of the armadas

[blissful scarab]

if have no idea why an armada needs a respawntimer anyway? They are limited by tokens.

[junior lake]

if we take a moment and remember how it was with the borg armadas back then. they had indeed no respwan timer and it was just great

[obtuse wraith]

Those below ops35 have as an event target to kill rare and epic “normal” armadas, and basically once killed, it takes hours to respawn and killing uncommon (hoping for more rares or epics to respawn later) doesn’t earn you points in events.

[junior lake]

afaik there is no corelation between uncommon and rade/epic armadas in a given system. there are max slots for uncommons and max slots for rare/epics. do not try to chain rares and epics by doing uncommons

this aint eve, it does not have complex mechanics 😄

[river merlin]

ah ok

[kind slate]

same for me, had to solo them as my team cant reach that far.

[river merlin]

eve echoes is not complex 🤣

[junior lake]

i am refering to real delve lol

[wide hedge]

At this time who ever choosed the head dev team should have been fired along with him.

[obtuse wraith]

I dont like “impress me” because it has divided my alliance into 3 groups of players:

1. 35+ with franka doing swarm armadas
2. <35 doing rares and epics - but with less of the bigger guns/spenders as they are busy in 1), we try to help but the guys are in a bad mood. Not enough targets respawn.
3. 35+ without franka (because lack shipyark, frankie not max - say T8) - who are so pissed they are giving the game a miss this weekend. We can’t do 💩 to help, they don’t have warp 75 access. Everyone is frustrated.

[wide hedge]

Its not only a problem of quantity but also of tier... a 6 tier 4 frankA barely dent a swarm armada...
Its just a bad design along all the board.
It is not the first horrible error in events, dev team should be fired and sobstitute with ppl able to do the job.

[junior lake]

furthermore they introduce a new ship with a horribly long build time and only days after the introduction they force ops 35+ players to speedup the build using real money equivilant to even be able to participate in the new event where the -a is mandatory for. scopely realy forcing here into buying stuff with real money. its just pure greed

[tall island]

Franklin-A is 2 month build time, so without rushi g people still won't have it by next Arc lok

[muted wren]

<@&509691205798592532> can someone explain me who came with the brilliant idea to give this number of event tickets, when events always need 10? I mean... 5 or 15 would make kind of sense if u get this price twice. But how on earth I can get to a multiple of 10 with an number of 6 or 7????

[polar token]

I agree it seems odd, but with different amounts available in different events I guess it's an additive thing over time 🤷‍♀️

[lyric lily]

I'm sure the total potential event tickets during an arc sums up to something dividable by 10 but yeah this is inconvenient as once you miss one, it'll be a while until you by chance get back to dividable by 10 tickets

[tall island]

RE: Impress Me.

If they allowed normal Armada like everyone else of lower level it be fine.

But for most 35s it's impossible to do without paying.

Most don't have a max level Franklin to scrap, even if they did it's 2 month build time and few have that many speedup.

So I agree, very unfair event.

[muted wren]

exactly this. whoever on scoply make these decisions, would be a miracle for the game if these ppl would actually play the game to realise what they do

[junior lake]

100% true, it seems nobody at scopely is even playing their own game

[clever nest]

So are videos acceptable forms of event feedback? I don't want to spam with my Youtube channel since I'm not in the Content Creator usergroup

[vagrant topaz]

New events are like the new ships and officers: useless and no fun

[clever nest]

I actually really like the Franklin-A. It's this Armada event which is ridiculous.

[vagrant topaz]

The Franklin indeed isn’t the problem. The travel time, rep costs and co are indeed. I saw people using ent vs swarms because it’s cheaper than frank.

Also the Tier up costs are too high

[clever nest]

Well it's grade 4 and you're only supposed to advance it every two levels

If you're trying to jam out several tiers at once then sure, it's gonna cost you

[keen dawn]

Impress Me - yet another kick in the nuts from Scopely to solo players.

[clever nest]

@keen dawn honestly the best way to finish it if your Alliance isn't spending money to upgrade Franklin-A's is to just spend directives and not show up.

[keen dawn]

Obviously, you have a problem with reading comprehension. I said SOLO players. Not in any alliance.

[clever nest]

Obviously, you can take it down a notch. It's easy enough to make a shell alliance for a couple hours and do it.

The game is built around being in an alliance, and that's been established since level 1 or so. If you want to participate in much of the game, the intent is not solo.

But, if you choose to be solo, you can still shell alliance for a short time to collect.

[keen dawn]

Yeah, no. Can't solo rares or epics. This is friggen nonsense.
And the game is billed as being player EITHER solo or in an alliance.
These events are still nonsense.

[clever nest]

The most points come from starts and not showing, so like I said, just fire a bunch of armadas and be done.

[quasi surge]

Can't do this armada event because can't find any rare or epic armadas. Really need to increase spawn rate of armadas. Always difficult to find them, but especially impossible during event

[keen dawn]

Can't do that if you don't have the directives to do so.....

[clever nest]

Yep, they gave us a bunch over the last arc, but it wasn't communicated well to save them for what's coming up.

As someone else in my alliance said, any time Scopely starts giving us a lot of something, save it.

The event is bad, that's for sure. 34 and under can't find Armadas. 35+ need spenders to make big Franklin-A's to hope to beat the Armadas.

But it's not really a kick in the nuts to solo players, given the game is made for people to be in alliances. If you wanna solo, you're accepting that limitation and all that comes with it.

[keen dawn]

As I said, the game is billed as being either solo or alliance. There should be equivalent rewards for solos. PERIOD.

Alliances are more of a PITA than they're worth, with overblown egos and stupidity.

Also, I got NO directives in the last arc, so I don't know what you're talking about.

[clever nest]

"overblown egos and stupidity"

I see what you mean

[keen dawn]

Your failure to read initially isn't my problem, sport.

[fiery parcel]

Scopely, this Impress Me event is the worst I've ever seen, when it's better to just blow directives and not turn up there is a serious problem. I've seen multiple Alliances running Armadas on the same target just for points, surely this is not the intent. As for 35+ a 5 min timer on a 14 min warp is just a ploy to waste mycellium or relocate and then have any smaller warp ships locked. Really plumbing new depths here imho.

[wide hedge]

That is not the first time they come up with a broken dull mechanics... it is time to hire more professional ppl.

[fiery parcel]

Agreed, but in my time in this game I've never seen 3x Alliances setting Armada on the same target, plus it splits Alliances into 3 groups:

1. 35+ with Franklin-A trying to beat swarm Armadas with a ship they've had for a few days
2. 35+ who can't even get a Franklin-A yet without paying so are in limbo and have no chance of completing event
3. <35 who can't get the usual support from 35+ and can't find a real target to complete an event.

You're right, they're missing pretty simple stuff that was obviously gonna cause problems the way they assigned scores for this.

[summer bone]

Please can you increase the spawn rate of the rare and epic Armadas during these armada events at least! With so many people doing them it's almost impossible to find any rares or epics. What's the point in an event where you need to run 10 of them at least but event when you can there are none around level 30 to start!

[vagrant topaz]

Many ppl have written it but please Scopely, listen to your players. Remove the cool down time\respawn rate on normal rares and Epics. If you don't have directives you can't run them and there's a cool down time on opening the chests so it should be regulated enough by this.

[ionic arch]

The armada event is pointless. Respawning of rare armadas should have been increased. Incredibly frustrating to find rares. Impossible in fact at my level. Event is a bust

[obtuse wraith]

These three pictures explain the low value of the research event. It is WORSE than the daily event <@&509691205798592532> @warped sierra

[lyric lily]

I'll send this in again, thanks for the pics. Have already forwarded without and no dice, perhaps this'll help.

[buoyant tinsel]

It’s an impossible event.

[neon oasis]

@buoyant tinsel

[thin salmon]

It’s not impossible for you doesn’t mean it is for everyone else. Most 35 can’t do it because no ship required for instance

[neon oasis]

@thin salmon ah, yeah I'm not in the Frankie A category

Still, several people <35 are angry

[ivory drift]

I m angry too because I m <35 and I cannot found target i do 3x on a 38 rare and skill ezch time . We sent crédits only for the fun. The minus scopely it s upper thé numérique of target on whole systems

[thin salmon]

And again

Will they give us again a box ? 😂 no but they must be joking us. April fools all the month
