So long as your ops level was high enough.

[polar bobcat]

The majority of the people on my server hunt in level 31 borg probe space. With that, they expect us to hit 342 probes (684 clicks, not counting repairs and spent transwarps) in a day... on a Saturday... the day before a "partying holiday"..... what happened to the quest of less screen time, Scopely???
Oh, that's right, your corporate goal is short term profits over long term survivability. Financial shortsightedness, such a waste...

[vale canopy]

Just kill 50 33s it’s not hard I started hunting 33s at ops 28 and based on ur MS I know ur much much higher up

[polar bobcat]

When I hit 32s, my maxed vidar spends its hull in under 9 minutes. But still, most on my server are in lvl 31 probe space

[vale canopy]

So isn’t it better to hit 33s?

Cuz no one’s there

And each 33 is 6x more than 31s

[polar bobcat]

I'm gonna try now

[vale canopy]

Ok

[polar bobcat]

Done. So after a full hull run each, in a 31, a 32, and a 33 system, I still have this much more to go. Oh, and I had a +80% intercepter attack exo active for all, too (which, seems to have had 0 effect, btw). Still WAY TOO MUCH time for this event

I stand by my original feedback

[shut glade]

Exocomps stack with all your other bonuses like research. Each +%damage research gets added to that, so it's more like +400% before and +480% after, a lot less than you'd think.

[tight pine]

And especially with a Vidar useless. What crew are you running @polar bobcat

[polar bobcat]

Did a test, I got one extra lvl 33 with the exo, compared to without.

[polar bobcat]

This is my probe hunting crew

Exo or no exo, it's still a ridiculous event. Way too much time and rss spent for very little reward. Used 4 transwarp and full hulls, to get 1 shard of the infinitus skin

[tight pine]

That is the wrong crew for the 33s. Either 5, Chen and Tlaan or PM Tlaan. First is good for fast cargo. Second crew is good for maximizing number of kills in the system.

It took me 1.5 hills to get it done. So not too bad of an event.

[polar bobcat]

I've not tested 33s, but in all the tests I've done, my crew that I use gets the most kills on probes. 5 people did this test with me too

Regardless, the event is still a terrible waste of time and rss. That fact hasn't changed

[polar bobcat]

Let me guess, you're a lvl 39+?

[tight pine]

Nope. Ops 35. got my Vidar maxed last month (ignored it too long). First run with 5, Chen and Tlaan was over in 25 kills. Didn’t want to gamble on RNG and put PM Tlaan on. Had half a hull left when I got the last milestone. All this doing while waiting for the armada timer. So not fully time wasted I guess.

[tight pine]

These 3 coming days are the worst. Scopely at it’s best copying an event that was bad without improving it.

[polar bobcat]

I'll give this a try. Today was my first time hitting a 33 since I maxed. Interestingly, I seem to do about the same in a 32 system as a 33. Could be wrong though. Only one test so far

[tight pine]

The joy of the 33s is the speed: lots of cargo in only a couple of minutes. So on our server everybody is in that system. 🙈

[polar bobcat]

Good point; additional feedback, Scopely. Double... no, triple the number of borg systems. About 90% of my server is between Ops 35 and 43. So everyone hunts in the same systems (as well as mines.... but thats another subject)

[tight pine]

I heard/read somewhere that we might get another Borg related arc next year. Maybe they address those issues then.

[brisk osprey]

Display of Dominance is really difficult to complete, if you do not have Defence Platforms to level up.

[shut geode]

When scopley makes borg events, don't push all players to one map. Or make more maps. When you are level 30+ you have to go level 32+ borg to get points, lower it takes 1 thousand year to get enough points

Kill more than 30 borg, this happens when you go lower.. it takes thousands of years .

But all other maps are too full . More borg spaces for higher level

[ember charm]

Are you really being this generous? Thanks!

[polar bobcat]

Events without milestones are events nobody likes. I dont know how I can make that any clearer...

[sacred scarab]

Given how pleasantly painless these halloween hostile events have been, any chance the regular faction events can be re-tooled to allow for killing traders in sol/kronos/romulus?

[left marlin]

What’s up with these brackets for Recruit and Assimilate? I’m Ops 41 and I got Ops 50 players in my bracket?! Wth?! I don’t get it Scopely. You seem to want more of us to go Ops40+, but it seems like each week, you find new ways to screw over those of us who recently made the jump. The new Allegiance Tokens ain’t gonna help us overcome crap like this. What gives? 😒

[vagrant topaz]

We need more ways to source borg armada directives

[royal widget]

Pretty sure vidar gets like 10000% bonus damage vs borg. No other source of bonus damage matters.

[royal widget]

Unless you're in the late 20s, in which case, tons of free-speed research.

[shut glade]

Good point about the bonus with the vidar, this is very true.

[manic estuary]

What is the thinking with the borg megacube "bonus"

[errant pike]

I came first in my officer recruit and officer xp slb's (by a lot of points), came 5th in recruit and assimilate, because you decided it would be fair to put me up against people who get the same amount of officer xp from FH in one event and people 3 levels higher than me so get more officer xp in the other, why?...

[tender arch]

lots of steel in the events today. much thanks!!

[normal elm]

Buy one get one free?

[kindred aurora]

Unless I'm missing something, this event is pretty miserly compared to last time. If it had been the same as last time I could have easily gotten over the line for unlocking the Infinitus refit but I'll be well short.

[urban kettle]

1. make borg armadas pay out something decent 2) make the events payout better so the event store is more meaningful. The event structure is there, lots of good borg crews and maxed vidars. Just work on the event itself

[vagrant topaz]

Not sure it’s physically possible to buy the max 15 vi’dar refit shards even if we won every event

Second time in ~6 months we’ve had this event and I still have less than 20 refit shards. I’ll die of old age long before I get it

We need this revisited. There should be a clear path available at all times to unlock all these critical things. Waiting for these seldom events to unlock 5% of it is ridiculous

[strong igloo]

now i dont mind a repair bill but for me to spend 10 directives for the mega cube just to get 10 back. makes no sense to me?

[willow quest]

it's basically buy one run, get one free

[strong igloo]

im looking like your picard avatar right now lol

[fresh frost]

And providing you don't spend the second run in the same arc, you get a sort of, neverending cycle of them providing they keep running that additional SMS

[tight pine]

If you manage it to kill in one run you have enough to start one next time the event runs. And it is 25% of the points you need for the SMS.

[pure hamlet]

What is the purpose of the Mega Cube Directive Bonus event?

You spend 10 directives to get 100 points to get 10 directives back. You get nothing out of the event other than ship needing repair.

[pure hamlet]

If you win (big if, it usually takes multiple runs) the armada you get pathetic rewards from the fight. I can easily get more refined nanoprobes by making one trip to kill borg probes and then refining 2 chests worth of inert nanoprobes.

Maybe you should improve the rewards and make mega cube assaults worth the time and effort.

[fresh frost]

Not sure if it's the intention, but if you buy the directives for one run, and stick to one megacube attack per run of the event, you never have to buy them again

So you get free/bonus points to any ALB/SMS in the future

[left marlin]

Just Hostile Hunt today? No CoW, Fac Hunt, or Apex?

[jade sinew]

lol I didn't receive the borg alliance reward... and a lot of my alliance didn't receive them either...

[round flare]

They will expire prior to the next event

[viscid phoenix]

That’s old text from the first Borg arc

[round flare]

That doesn’t mean it’s false information

[sacred scarab]

That the directives from the last borg event were still available for me to use in this one, though, does.

and the ones I gained from using those are currently in my inventory, so...

[fresh frost]

It lies, because I've got several from the last run still

[round flare]

I am shocked at these accusations you are making against the fine people at Scopely.

[dense prairie]

wow. another day of hostile hunt. so thrilling and rewarding 😑 . faction hunt would have been an idea.

[waxen quartz]

So is this gonna be the whole week?

[dense prairie]

https://tenor.com/view/this-sucks-gran-torino-cringe-yikes-no-gif-16574756

[modest parcel]

It would be nice to have some clarification as to why these have not been disappearing. If the events are going to continue like this, I'd spend some event store currency to stockpile 10 MC directives to help complete the armada event each time this mini-arc shows up.....

[ashen wren]

only hostile hunt? again? 💩💩💩

[barren jacinth]

its not funny. where is normal events?

[torpid flame]

https://tenor.com/view/tumbleweed-highway-blue-sky-gif-14068616

[vale canopy]

bruh

can we not have 3 days of hostile hunt in a row

[torpid flame]

Let's hope it's just three days and not six

[wicked pike]

where is APEX and CoW? Is this some kind of punishment?

Or do we now need to buy a "access to regular events" pack?

[tender wadi]

Next time you want to give out three days of Hostile Hunt, can you at least make it inside Crucible of War?

[thick bough]

This isn’t fun

[hot bluff]

Just call it " Play A Different Game" week 🤣

[summer sapphire]

Live video of Scopely’s reaction to their customers complaining

[spare creek]

I enjoy having a break from the constant screen time

[spring marlin]

no it isnt you have to buy 10x 3750 borg credit EACH .... = 37500 for those 10 and the whole borg rewards are ash then....

[spring marlin]

week? the month just started .... 😄 it is the CLOAKED ARC

[willow quest]

yes it is, the event store was not the only source of megacube directives

nor were events the only source of borg funds

[spring marlin]

where else? not in events ... not counting MONEY packs

[willow quest]

in app purchases of course 😂

[torpid flame]

Why the f are the rewards for CoW spread out over different stores instead of putting everything in the event store?

[obtuse vigil]

#🏆-event-chat message

[trail elk]

Yet another cow event with no MS. Joy.

[tawdry hearth]

Where do i find the CoW lab for stats

[frozen bone]

Out of curiosity, what happened to Swarm Sunday and Anomalous phenomena? Are they just delayed by 1h?

[thin salmon]

No apex event this month?

[frozen bone]

I would guess apex event is after faction hunt.

[thin salmon]

3 days till new arc so if apex is not today that mean no apex this month

[frozen bone]

Oh, I thought the next arc was more than a week away. (but that was just a guess)

[faint torrent]

I was really hoping the holiday faction hunts were teasing that the scoring for faction hunt was now different. That scoring was perfect for me at 26. Please make regular faction hunt scoring like it was for the Halloween faction hunt.

[vagrant topaz]

3 hour maintenance this Tuesday has been announced. That’s usually when they release new patch/arc

[frozen bone]

Then maybe they'll incorporate the APEX event in the next arc itself?

[vagrant topaz]

Who knows. Maybe you’re right and duality part 2 could have apex elements.

[tight pine]

Or maybe they just don’t run apex this month. There was a holiday event on after all.

[ornate summit]

Swat event not registering killers !

[obtuse barn]

Anyone else having issues with 37+ swarm not scoring for either Threat from beyond event?

[obtuse wraith]

yup

[obtuse barn]

Think they reset event to pre frank A days when they adjusted start time for events due to DST

[eternal steppe]

That would be nice, i am also hoping for more apex research medals soon.

[opaque mason]

60 mil points for full g4 node in lat rush don’t score and a tiered up enterprise as well not. Pls fix that

[jade ermine]

Server 129 no points for mining

[limber moth]

No points for 4* mining again!!! WTF?! This event is not new and the same problem keeps reoccurring. Sort this shite out for gods sake.

[vernal nymph]

No points for first minute of lat rush... Uggg..

[eternal steppe]

I seem to remember something about "fixing" scoring on latinum rush a while ago so that only stuff mined DURING (not before) the event was counted toward your score

[jade ermine]

@eternal steppe well then they failed seems like 40% got points and 60% not everyone had miners on nodes, some got 15m points some 0.

So doesn’t really makes sense

[eternal steppe]

would make sense if everyone got the same treatment

[simple ether]

Missing points in lat rush for 900K crystal.

[vagrant topaz]

Last time I completed a faction hunt was when the requirements were lowered. Have not and will not even attempt to complete these ones. Lockdown is finished people are back at work and you promised us a better work life balance. So kindly insert this FH and any other event that takes so much grinding, squarely and firmly up the rectal passage of whoever lied about giving us a better work life balance. Or QOL balance whatever you wish to call it.

[eternal steppe]

cmon dude, the rewards make the extra effort worth it. you are not forced to finish the event, it is not mandatory. Extra effort for good rewards or no effort for no rewards.

[vagrant topaz]

Yup I’m picking the no efforts no rewards. I’m drowning in recruit tokens and to get a poxy few uncommon? For about an hour at the very least of solid solid grinding? Nah I’ll spend the time with my baby.

[tight pine]

I need 9 minutes per faction (ops 35). Warp time is not ideal but I don’t count that for the “grind” time.

[vagrant topaz]

Very happy for you mate. 👍🏽

[tight pine]

Thx. But it was supposed to show that it is doable within a reasonable time. And then the rewards are pretty good. But I applaud everybody who can ignore events. I cannot really not do events.

[tight pine]

And time with your baby is ALWAYS better than anything here.

[vagrant topaz]

It’s very easy

😂

[vagrant topaz]

Amen brother

[royal widget]

It's probably a completely separate event entry. :p

[polar bobcat]

All servers support reps rn...

[elder sleet]

Scopley, you forgot to fix the Enterprise D pixels

[granite nymph]

Oh Christ on a crutch making T3 services stronger only serves the whales. I know you need your lucre but FFS give the small people a chance for once.

[sleek scroll]

What are you talking about? They just gave us edibles....er, consumables, like 3 or 4 arcs ago.

And now we've got 3 new borg system only 12 months after we actually needed them and 6 months after we stopped needing them.

[tough dome]

Your weeklong territory event is just another in the LONG LONG LOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGG line of bad event ideas from scopely. If you're going to do an even, you need to make it accessible to EVERYBODY, not just those alliances that have and can get territories. Instead of doubling down on a flawed system of territories - how about you work on FIXING that flawed system???

[woeful raven]

The new cloak dailies were effectively behind a pay wall. I need 3 lvl 41s for big reward, but no ship with cloak that can reach or kill a 41 anywhere. I have a d3 with cloak, but anytime it gets maxed out it will be scrapped. No 28 ship with cloak as have a Saladin

[vagrant topaz]

Cloaking is just a cash grab at the moment. If you haven't built a Centurion or a Bortas you need to pay 100 or 150 euro in order to use it once or twice per day with a decent ship.

What is even more baffling is that some people around here, including Carnac (but he's paid by Scopely anyway) paint it as a great addition to the game. If the feature is great why do they feel the need to sell it to the player mass like this?

[barren jacinth]

Why i again cant choose the side for event? I'm a klingon, but got the romulan token😩

[blissful scarab]

where are the new borg systems?

[young jolt]

So… if you drop your zone 1 min before and then join and take it.. reckon it counts as a win for the Balance of Power event?

[halcyon berry]

Rom space off Argandu

[blissful scarab]

thx

[civic arch]

So. The big territory update is some minor added perks?? Nothing about the insane lag during takeover battles??

[quaint parrot]

Why does Scopely not play to STFC?

[polar bobcat]

My server has given up on territories. They didn't fix territory issues, they only made the disparity worse.
Making the whales fatter while telling the rest of your players (the other 85% of us) to go kick rocks.... update after update after update... is NOT how you save this game from its path of a slow death!!!
We've been screaming feedback for 2 years now, but time and time again, you just drop additional cash grabs.

STOP ASKING US FOR FEEDBACK IF YOU DONT E.V.E.R. PLAN TO LISTEN TO IT!!

[next jolt]

Please stop making the 2nd repair or build or research options a paid option. The way it’s announced it seems to be a free unlock but then we are blindsided with it’s a paid option only.

[rough ravine]

Umm... nobody forces you to do the rewards OR play the game even. If you don't like it, don't play, but why complain about an event that most folks find fairly easy to complete that gives pretty nice rewards, particularly for a ftp event. Sounds like you just like to complain.

[muted granite]

that would be awesome!...at the very least show all the options in the store, I haven't bought the overpriced 2nd research at $20 or $100 elite, what makes $copely think i'll buy the $100 elite repair as my only option? i only bought the build cause it was $5 and i sometimes use it after going up an OPs.

[vagrant topaz]

Listen up pip squeak, I posted my “feedback” in this specially created “feedback” channel. On top of that it was yesterday. So if you haven’t got any feedback on the game and instead wish to critique my feedback then please remember two points.

1. What are you even doing here?
2. I am more interested in my bowel movements from this morning than anything you could possibly say.
   Good day and don’t let the proverbial door hit you on the way out!

[vapid meteor]

So I got the lvl 28 cloak for bortas so I can do events. It costs 30 of the new resource to cloak, cloak disappears after you attack a ship. New daily requires killing 3 ships

3 x 30 = 90, Yet the daily chest is 65?

So I’ve been given dalies that are physically impossible to complete everyday? Am I missing something can I earn them somewhere else (without real money)

[craggy urchin]

Cloaking events are basically pay to win for this same reason. Daily Tetryons aren't enough to complete the events that require them consistently without spending. I think the second daily isn't meant to be done everyday unless you are willing to buy a pack of tetryons like once a week or so. Scopely has functionally linked cloak use with credit card use.

[elfin lodge]

Not if you are federation and have a higher ops lvl… then you cant even buy the cloak for the daily 😂

[royal widget]

Yeah, but who would be monofaction?

[rough ravine]

Touche... you are right sir. My apologies for being a wanker. 🤓

[vagrant topaz]

No worries mate, I respect your response 👊🏽. I hereby will attribute more importance to your future messages than the contents of my bowel movements 🤣

They aren’t that interesting in all honesty

[frank inlet]

Do not understand why 2nd repair cost over 20 bucks when 2nd build was only 5 bucks. And why do we have to have two Second Repair tokens in the pack? we just want one Second Repair token as we can already repair one ship at a time. Maybe remove one of those tokens and charge us only 5 bucks so that we can repair two ships at a time.

[vast goblet]

Why even pay for a second repair when speedups are free?

[vast goblet]

Every one I speak to in my alliance has 13k+ 30 minute speedups and I have 42k. How can you possibly run out of speedups when the game gives you so many every day for completing dailes

[frank inlet]

i blow threw them like candy cause i only have one ship that can repair at one time

hense the reason Scoply is offering 2nd repiar. espeically for people that are not duel or even try locked

i have 4 docking bays and at least three of those ship should be out doing stuff at the same time

[vast goblet]

I went through those lower levels and never ran out so you are either playing 24/7 or you need to triple lock

God help you when you get a 4* ship like the Frankie-a

[frank inlet]

The orignal ? was why was the price so high. Do not understand why 2nd repair cost over 20 bucks when 2nd build was only 5 bucks. And why do we have to have two Second Repair tokens in the pack? we just want one Second Repair token as we can already repair one ship at a time. Maybe remove one of those tokens and charge us only 5 bucks so that we can repair two ships at a time.

[vast goblet]

The Ent and D4 at lvl20 take 6 hours and the Frankie is 10+

Well, I don’t know anyone in my alliance who even needs to buy one so good luck with it

[frank inlet]

Well Scopley 99% percent ppl say you can take you 2nd repair que and shove it

[muted granite]

what i want is the ability to turn 2x 30m into 1x 1h and 3x 1h into 1x 3h etc..(and do it in various batch sizes)

[vagrant topaz]

Way up there scopley! Like way, way up there!

[vagrant topaz]

@old grail
Hi mate just some feedback on the territory’s.
I know you guys are desperate to encourage pvp in territory’s and I honestly agree it is needed it would be fun. However multiple times a week EVERY week is simply just to much, especially when it’s during work or for younger players school times. I propose a change.

If you capture a territory, you hold it, that’s it simple! No defences etc. if someone wishes to takeover your territory then they will initiate some sort of planning phase an intent to takeover. The holding alliance gets notified of an impending attack (no details on who, just a obscure communique to prepare) a list of times is then agreed upon by both alliances (once again ingame and protecting the anonymity of the aggressors) once both alliances agree a time for the take over then all hell breaks loose and happy days.

Quite simply week in week out 5 plus defences and then your allies etc etc is to much. This new event is coming out and our server is already finding the best solution to get the points with minimal effort and it won’t be the glorious pvp your hoping for. Take away the time consuming elements of the game.

For anyone that balks at my idea above, calm down it’s a rough draft and can be changed. The idea is to reduce the volume of takeovers and defences.

@old grail in general, there is an idea much simpler - the points should take into account the damage from pvp during the seizure of territories (to both sides - defending and attacking) + the mining of isogen.
I don't really understand yet what you want to achieve with such a scoring. it is possible to easily negotiate with neighboring alliances on the exchange of territories for a week in order to get points for the attack and nothing will change dramatically. in addition, if you removed the limit on 5 territories, it would make sense to have more points per attack. but in the current state it will give nothing but the exchange of territories

[mortal pike]

Cant believe APEX didnt run!! Was looking forward to that, much happier for the borg event to be dropped

[tacit rapids]

If I'm reading the schedule correct, there are 9 Ticketed Event days and we're getting 4 sets of tickets from the Battle Pass alone, are we intended to not be able to pick an event each day or are there additional event tickets being sourced?

[royal widget]

I'm really sick of these randomized events. They keep giving me romulan events which is the only faction I don't have. Thanks for nothing devs. These romulan credits are completely useless. Is it really THAT onerous to just let us pick ourselves?

[shrewd warren]

I just came on here to give the same feedback as GriffonSpace. Please stop randomizing the faction for events. I'm not sure if you are aware, but players usually choose a faction and then need to farm reputation for them (/sarcasm). Giving us a random faction instead of letting us choose which one we want to work for is the epitome of idiocy. Just why would you do it? You make us chose factions. You make us farm rep. You make us use our credits for that faction. Then why make events that have a high chance (1 in 3) of giving us exactly the faction to kill, which we actually need to help?? There isn't even server events based on factions so a clean 50:50 would lead to making it somewhat fair. No, it's just bad. Someone always gets screwed.

[sinful heart]

This war prep is ridiculous and pointless.

[dusky panther]

Anyone else’s war prep not scoring points

[sinful heart]

When tiering mad maxing out a legionary doesn’t even give you the first lvl of rewards, for a ops 39 player, you might have a screwy system

Not sure who to complain to, but what a waste.

Scopy trying hard to push folks away

[slim portal]

I got points for my officers but not for my ships?

[abstract bloom]

a little clarification on how to "gain power" would be helpful

[thorny perch]

Officer XP and ship XP doesn't work (again)

[stable ivy]

ship power, under check, officer is working, just pitiful

and its POWER, not XP SPENT

[thorny perch]

This is just.... Thx @stable ivy

[stable ivy]

agree, the point amounts i find painful both ways, not going to push but i was testing to be sure my aliance was at least able to score all possible ways

[nocturne vortex]

Pure shit I've tierd up sarcophagus twice doing weapons and shields and not 1 point for it <@&509691205798592532>

[bleak kayak]

Really wish the new daily about hitting 3 players while cloak wouldnt be level depended. So hard to find appropriate players + to kill them with a 26 ship

[civic gorge]

So I’ve been grinding Romulan rep for weeks, just for Scopeley to put me on team Klingon. Guess I’ll just have to sit this arc out.

[bleak kayak]

@civic gorge after finishing it you can flip sides

[nocturne vortex]

So the sms gave 4 1 bill steel tokens and nowhere to exchange them if we want they don't show in the 1 mill token exchange and there nowhere else they show up except in inventory

[loud summit]

Need higher ops

[nocturne vortex]

What ops level I'm 38

[loud summit]

I’m 43, but I think this option shows up at ops 40

[nocturne vortex]

Thanks for that 👍

[civic gorge]

Thats all well and good, but that won’t stop tanking my rom rep for this solo leaderboard. Mind you, I have all research focused on gaining rom rep faster which means it drops even harder when killing romulans. And yes I’m aware that there are romulan hostiles with no rep loss, but I do not have the time nor the repair bill resources for that.

[nocturne vortex]

There is systems introduced in last arc in rom and kling space where you can kill the faction you need without gaining or losing rep

[civic gorge]

Yes, exactly what I wrote 😉

[slate stump]

Station event … not worth doing ..this is top,tier

[formal flame]

Is this slb bugged the romulan one has bil steel in it Klingon has not and the trit is in k and not mil plus a three day event for that payouts

[nocturne vortex]

I have klingon aswell and not even bothered to try for it

[shut glade]

Two things:

1. Stop forcing me to side with the Klingons when my main faction is Romulans. I'm sick of being forced to get more Klingon credits when I need as many Romulan credits as possible and already have a stupidly high amount of Klingon credits
2. The power gain events have been ridiculous for multiple reasons recently, including it being way more expensive to get points now that you've removed both officer and ship xp as well as making the goal increasingly ridiculously high. You really, really need to either add back in easier ways to earn points or lower the goal to make it possible to actually complete these power gain events.

[junior violet]

To make matters worse I think this weeks officer auction is also a domination centered event, so it’s really five days of this crap.

[eternal lintel]

So basically no Klingon/Romulan faction events for anyone below level 26, just like last month? What the heck?

[undone night]

I don't have an option to choose between klingon or romulan conquest. The only option is romulan. What gives?

[vagrant topaz]

Please provide a way for alliances to view what points we and our alliance mates have contributed to alliance milestone events. We can see our alliance’s points during leaderboards. Why not during milestones? I need to see who is actively participating

[halcyon berry]

The choice was made for you at the start of the arc

[polar bobcat]

Yup. Whales only ones who matter now.
#ThisIsTheScopelyWay

[vagrant topaz]

They give you Klingon systems in the event info to complete the event and not affect your rep.

@shut glade see my message above

[vagrant topaz]

The event states to “build” the sarcophagus not “tier” it up.

[nocturne vortex]

Also for ship power so tiering it up should give points

[vagrant topaz]

I believe that refers to using ship XP rather than tiering but I could be wrong

[nocturne vortex]

Nope it's ment to give points for all ships you increase power so doing weapons and shields on ships increase the power of the ship

[vagrant topaz]

@nocturne vortex you talking about the war prep Ams?

[nocturne vortex]

Your right was tired last night when I read it my bad

[vagrant topaz]

Lol no probs I actually read as ship xp last night too 😂. Looking this morning I can see it doesn’t event mention either of what we said haha

[hollow sundial]

the steps for the TC preparation are rather strange... 20M for first, another 20 for second, then 80 each for third and last... Normally the steps I'd expect would have been something like 8M, 16M , 48M, 96M

[shut glade]

I want Romulan credits. I don't care about the rep loss, that's literally nothing and I have to lose some anyway since I'm about to be Ops 38 and also about to hit g4 dailies. But that's 2000 Romulan credits I just missed out on because they decided I want Klingon. Probably a lot more considering this is the second time they've done it.

[vagrant topaz]

Ahhh I see what your gripe is, just the credits situation. Aye bro I feel your pain. Vidar was a massive help for me grinding credits but even so still took to long lol

[shut glade]

The worst part is I have a massive amount of Klingon credits I just don't need at all.

[vagrant topaz]

You’ll need them eventually I’m sure lol

[shrewd warren]

I know - which is a great addition to the game. Thanks for the info though. But for me it’s then useless kills. I want to chose the faction I need to grind for rep anyway and do it during the event. Having to work for a faction I actually don’t want to just sucks

[vagrant topaz]

Ahhh I see. Ok mate, sorry I was off base just tried to help incase you missed it 👊🏽🖖🏽

[shrewd warren]

Np. Still a great info. There’s still peeps who missed the new systems 🤣👊

[halcyon sequoia]

Did the last Update break the Armada warning? Bevore the Update, when starting a Armada another ally already started, you got a warning, if you really want to start this one. Now it happened several times, that there are no others visible active and when I start the armada, the others with shorter counters show up. An not only 1 or 2 seconds ahead, seen Armadas with more than 10 seconds ahead without a warning.

[sterile idol]

Increasing your ship level using xp adds to the CP and hull of the ship (thus increasing power), yet I get no points at all for using xp on the alliance event. This event has been worded and executed very badly. The top alliances on our server are struggling to hit milestone 2... on domination events we usually fly through them.

[grave rose]

Okay so I was thinking it was maybe just me thinking that this was ridiculously hard for prep certainly not possible to top tier

[half narwhal]

Using xp on a ship does not increase your POWER, it increases your ships STRENGTH.
Building a new ship (I believe) is the only way to gain "power from ships".

[half narwhal]

@shut glade
Complete the mid-arc Klingon (or Romulan) Betrayal event, and it will swap you for the rest of the arc.

[shut glade]

As I've said earlier, I know that. I would have preferred to do Romulan twice, which is what I would have done given a choice. The feedback/complaint is to stop taking away our choice of which event to do.

[vagrant topaz]

server 120 ops 12 i can not make a dayli event vor battle pass points ???

ok its work now... sorry need time to added by events

[dark pine]

Restart is the advice I’ve heard

[balmy totem]

When you make missions for event arcs PLEASE stop having ones which contain a "Kill X enemies above level Y in Z system" where Y is greater than the lowest level hostile which that system Z spawns. Just time wasting and annoying.

[devout trail]

this stage of the Liberation pt 4 mission is counting incorrectly. I've killed over 30 lvl 33s in the system. but it appears only level 34s and above are counting towards the total

[sterile idol]

When your ship strength increases, so does your power

Try it

Actually I might be wrong there 👀😂 but I swear it used to...

[tranquil crescent]

Mission 'Liberation Part 4', told to find Riker. He tells me to 'Defeat 10 hostiles of level 33 or higher in Azati'. Mission only seems to count hostiles of 34 or higher. Someone made a typo in the mission definitions, Scopely?

[gilded warren]

All those new systems klingdon but not one armada in any of them !!! Another sh.it event poor planning !!!

Mega alliances trying find armadas

[nimble dragon]

What year is this game set in??? How does Gorkon even know who worf is??? are we shoehorning the 24th century Star Trek into the kelvin timeline with no regard for continuity?

[tacit rapids]

Will there be additional tickets given out or are we limited in the number of Ticketed Event Days we're going to be able to participate in?

[brazen chasm]

This is a bit tough. Our alliance usually manages to complete events like this

[brisk osprey]

The demands of War Preparation - AMS were set far too high. The instructions were not clear either.

[half abyss]

It is a poor planned event indeed

[hard plume]

not only this is poor planned, the other with territory I guess its more worse because half of the player excluded from the event. No way to have chances beat any of they BIG alliances. No way to get 2*/3* Iso .... haha many thanks for such GOOD EVENTS

[hard plume]

btw the Alliance Milestone Event should in general reviewed. It should be calculated more with the power in total of an alliance. I'm in two alliances one 74 Member very active and many players around 35 and one with 18 Member none over lv28. both Alliances got the same Milestones .... thats more than boring. With my big alliance we also stood no chance to get the miles done ... with the smaller ....no way to do any of them not in a few days.

[valid linden]

The whales in our server are mostly in one alliance and then formed an alliance with multiple smaller alliances. There's literally no way to defend against them in TC as they fight together, 5 alliances vs 1. I'm a pay to play, and it pisses me off that there's no way to limit TC to 1:1 or 2:2, etc.

[keen mauve]

AME is BS for smaller alliances. I have 42 members with only 5 of us over level 40 and everyone else is mid 30’s. Everyone is just about free to play. We’re not going to hit one tier at all for this event. Change it up based on actual size of alliance based on avg power increase or something like that.

[main crater]

Scopely should just auto-complete the event for everyone and alliances that finished the milestones should get double rewards

[vagrant topaz]

Agreed the ams was far to difficult and there was little way for us to know HOW we were getting points. No alliance board to see who gave what points. No way to see how much power research will give before you finish it so that l 10 day research you just did isnt really going to add much. No way to see that millions of Officer XP is going to give so few points that, with scopely rounding system, it doesn’t look like anything was added. This was a very frustrating event for my whole alliance and we didn’t make it to the 3rd tier. We are a 74 member alliance with a large group of lvl 31-41 FTP players. With that knowledge I would understand if we couldn’t get the last tier done. But to not even make it to the 3rd tier….. this event needs some work before we see it again.

[peak oasis]

ANKH completed it on server 57

[hollow iron]

So the new Territory Capture event starting in a couple hours has some folks confused; some are reading it as every territory will be up regardless of their normal timers while others read it as just a weeklong event that encourages you to take new zones throughout it

[halcyon berry]

It's a long event encouraging takeovers

Same schedule applies

Or maybe 2 weeks long, I'm not sure

[muted granite]

its 10 days, so some territory capture/defense are screwed out of points

[unborn igloo]

why are you limiting hostile killing to one system? that doesen't work! 2nd day without 34s in that system!

[hot bluff]

Your lack of attention to detail, scopely, is soooo frustrating. I was all set to collect a big ole miner full of crystal, but you can't read your own schedule. In and of itself, not tragic, but it happens so often. And these little things really add up and take away from all the great work you do do. Sad.

[torpid flame]

Speaking of not being able to read their own schedule

[manic estuary]

borg armada scoring all screwed up

[lost kite]

The ISO mining Event is not recording collected resources for all players.

Even though ISO has been mined, scores remain at 0. This is even after several hard closures of the game to allow the system to reset itself, and for the ISO mined to count.

[eternal lintel]

Borg Battle says defeating hostiles should score points. I’ve killed 15 level 25 hostiles and still have 0 points.

[vapid meteor]

Why is there 9000 events active at the same time?

[thin bear]

Armada event doesn't specify armada types, why aren't exchange counting?

[dry wind]

@Scopely seems to be having a problem with armadas this round

[vapid meteor]

How exactly is earning this officer counted as free to play?

I’ve opened a double uncommon loot chest, from armada credits everyday since the last arc. I’ve not earned 1/3 of the rare armada tokens I spent last time. How is it free to play if I have to pay to do the armadas?

[scenic flint]

Is anyone else not getting points for regular hostiles in the Borg battle event?

[wooden fjord]

@tropic ibex @old grail Has scopely lost their mind? To complete armada todays event (75K points) I have to successfully complete 30 Epic armadas. I've been playing for nearly 2.5 years and I've done a handful of epics. When I go to the store I see $100 for enough to do 3 Epic Armadas. So for the low low price of $1,000.00 I can complete todays event? Who does this? There is no way you're going to make any sales like this!!!! Stop accounting from dictating your sales, or at least make them check how many actually sell like this!!!!

[scenic flint]

You get a lot of points for spending directives

35k just for spending the epic directives, win or lose

[wooden fjord]

It's only going to cost me $200.00 to complete the event. These prices are WAY too high! Still not buying it. I challenge Scopely to run the numbers and consider if even $200 per person for a single event is too much... right before black Friday and Christmas. I'll pay for my battlepass, but until they start being realistic on the value of their pixels, that's all they'll get from me.

[scenic flint]

Uhm, no? Running 2 epic armadas nets you at least 70k points. Even if you lose that 72k points. If you win that's 75k.

My earlier post about 35k points was per epic armada

[wooden fjord]

Here's the problem with that. I'm in an alliance of 8. Most of whom are sub level 30. So my only option is to blow epic armada directives on TINY epics so I can guarantee the win. This event was simply not thought out.

and for me it's 75,000 points to complete the event. That's 3 armadas

[delicate marlin]

Lag is ducking awful in takeovers.

[scenic flint]

You are too focused on the epics. Rares will also get you there

[wooden fjord]

I'm too focused on the prices and scopely's greed.

[scenic flint]

I've had enough rares saved up to run 2 and am at 45k points

[wooden fjord]

Stop kissing their butts and help bring down the prices. Hopefully their sales figures are so terrible they'll stop doing this. It's simply not sustainable in an otherwise good game.

[scenic flint]

I don't like the fact that the uncommon armadas don't do anything.

And I'm not kissing their butts. I just believe that if you are going to criticize something you get it right and base it on facts and proper math.

[edgy stream]

The borg battle events has kill probes and kill hostiles lvl 20 to 25 at 1 point each. .killing hostiles is not registering. I have killed several different types too.

[analog flax]

lvl 22 Separatists have been working for me

[edgy stream]

Will try that.. didn't hit them..

Ty tolker

For the armada event oart.. need to go back to damage to uncommon, rare and epic. Was alot better IMO.

[novel totem]

Event payouts - especially the basic resources are great this arc - it's apparent that you want us to progress into the 40s. I really have nothing to complain so far and this arc looks great. Please think about adjusting the BP payouts as well. It feels a bit strange to get 5B steel from a one day event - and the whole BP yields less 🙂

[royal widget]

Crazy idea: don't have events that punish playing the game.

[novel totem]

Have you lost your mind? It's 75k pts. Starting one (1) rare armada yields 20k pts. defeating it another 1.5k pts. If you start 3 Rares for 600 directives thats 64.5k pts. Those 3 rares should have secured you spots in 12-15 other rare armadas (if you set it up correctly in your alliance) yielding another 15k and more points. I don't see any issues with this event except that it has a great pay out and rewards pre-planning

[royal widget]

Read: don't play the game, nub. You're supposed to not play the game to play the game properly.

[edgy stream]

Thank you, that worked
. Of course it was the one type of hostile I didn't try..lol

[royal widget]

Much like how I just upgraded my ship and will be horribly punished for it.

[balmy totem]

Agree with all other comments here that War Preperation was stupidly hard. Strongest alliance on server and we didn't even get to 1/3rd of the final milestone points total.

[vapid meteor]

And the 600 directives come from where?

I’ve been opening chests every day since last arc and have made 220 directives. It’s not possible to earn 600 between this event and the last one requiring rare armadas

[balmy totem]

Sorry but they gave away so many for free at the start of the last arc then unless you've pissed them away between arcs you really should be able to complete this event

[novel totem]

I had plenty left over from the last arc, from CoW chests etc.

[vapid meteor]

I still have enough to do this event as I’ve had a stockpile for a very long time. But that stockpile is running dry fast!

The number they gave away for free last time, plus what I’ve earned is still less than the requirement

[novel totem]

never bought a single armada pack.

[vapid meteor]

Well there’s a major problem. Nobody in my alliance uses CoW for armada directives because getting uncommon rss is such a pain. They all get crystal, gas, ore.

Being given the option for different kinds of rewards, but only 1 choice will help you in another arc, is not a friendly way to run an event

It’s being advertised as a f2p event to earn the new officer. If they want to advertise it as such, then it needs to be obtainable from the output of this arc alone

Some events require spending uncommon, some require spending armada directives. Can’t be playing “guess the event” a month in advance

[granite nymph]

This territory event is profoundly stupid and pointless. Especially for any but wallet warriors.

[upbeat ferry]

The territory event is amazing. The team that gets the most groups to fake attempt a takeover wins. Scopely knocked this one out of the park 🤣🤣

[worn shadow]

The big alliances have already FAKE their way up to the top of the score board!

[silver briar]

These events are awful

[rigid musk]

After refresh it got corrected and started counting.

[toxic wraith]

Get ship back to base as it unloads it scores

[toxic wraith]

2 x1 day mining

[toxic wraith]

Kill the lowers 34s magically appear

[jaunty silo]

Liberation part 4 does not give kill credits to level 33 kills although the requirement says to kill 3/ or higher

Typo 33 or higher

[boreal canyon]

Thank you for the increased ticket event days and tickets given for free 🖖

[rocky kraken]

how about letting us do eclipse armadas for last 24 hrs of borg armada event seeing as u havnt specified what armadas we can do but epic and rare??

[vapid meteor]

Alliance’s are gaming the territory event. The credit card whales are dropping their high tier zones before they up for takeover, recapturing and scoring massive points

As usual, not tested or thought through

[shrewd warren]

While I agree with it being a badly thought out event, why are some people saying it's a whale-event? You need progenitor cores etc. which your alliance produces. So it's an alliance-effort and not something you buy. Pretty sure no one in my alliance ever bought some kind of territory-pack. Am I missing something? (we are a fairly new server)

[sinful heart]

Hush, not something people asked for or wanted. Let folks game the system

It not just whales. And it keeps the whales from stomping everywhere

[vapid meteor]

It’s a whale event becuase all the whales already have all the best zones on lockdown, with all the best perks. They are basically untouchable, and don’t attack each other

[plush forge]

I lost all money purchases and progress with today’s patch. Ipad / Applestore purchases. How do I restore?

[shrewd warren]

Contact the support directly. Spamming this in every channel here isn't helping. This is "event feedback".

[mint thorn]

I'm not seeing the Borg Recruit Show of Strength event. Any tips?

[balmy totem]

Anyone else Borg Barot event broken / stuck on 90/100?

I have literally done everything, both days

[strong anchor]

How are events totaling 90 points supposed to fulfill 100 points milestone?

[slim portal]

I’m stuck at 96 points and finished all the events

[compact tree]

Same for me

[strong anchor]

I’m at 80pts with mining pending. I completed every other Borg event yesterday and today

[shrewd warren]

Mining runs twice imho. It's just the doomsday hostile event not giving 10 points in the end

[compact tree]

seems infernal battle last tier hadnt scored for me so 96

[hollow sundial]

@strong anchor there are 2 separate instances for the Mining Mastery event. One was yesterday, one is today.

[strong anchor]

And I did the one yesterday and am doing the one today

[strong anchor]

I have screenshots of yesterdays results confirming that

[hollow sundial]

the doomsday one seems to be buggy... second to last milestone misses a 1M Dilithium token and I heard from all over that finishing it doesn't trigger the 10 points award for the summary event

am working to finish mine at the moment

[ivory pelican]

Yup. 10 pts short and I haven’t missed an event.

[hollow sundial]

I just finished mine on EU-156 and got my 10 points

[spring pewter]

I have the same issue. I finished all the events and just noticed the math doesn't add up.

[strong anchor]

Apparently there was a scoring bug that was fixed after it went live. All of us who didn't get full points need to contact Scopely support 🤦‍♀️ I suggest including screenshots of each completed milestone event.

[uneven relic]

Gift chest just released for the missing 10 points with a Officer shard 😊😊

@shadow path

[gritty tulip]

Tc takeover needs a loophole fix for offensive points to stop alliances from simply dropping a territory before a takeover

Such as keeping track of the last owner of the territory

Then make the criteria for offensive points check for last owner

[vast breach]

11 of 10 event is missing 4 points. Completed all individual events and should have 100 points but only received 96

[spring reef]

Thanks @strong anchor - gift chest fixed the problem.

[uneven relic]

There was a gift chest that gave the remaining 10 points with a Barot Shard

As long as you finished all events over both days

[pine pine]

I am level 22, i spent officer xp to progress, however it has put me in negative points, how am i supposed to come back from this with build and research etc, scopely not answered my ticket grrr.

[uneven relic]

@warped sierra um 😐

[warped sierra]

Screenshot all of this. BUT be aware officer xp will not score. See my screen name. Lol. But now you gotta score 182k points.

So you need to do enough to score to bring your score back to positive 42k points. Then screenshot all that and send it in and I’ll be sure to get you your points. BUT it says officer power. Not officer xp. You’re gonna have to do this with research or buildings. Or guns.

[vagrant topaz]

The rewards inside the cosmic cleanup event need a serious looking at. Because this is as useful to me as a bunch of colour blind hedgehogs……… in a bag!

[vapid meteor]

Yeah once you get enough ship bps, it becomes a pointless event. I’d love some D’vor parts, but I sometimes get a useless amount like a couple hundred.

When you need several hundred thousand, it’s a bit of a slap in the face to regularly get nothing and then barely anything

[vagrant topaz]

Someone somewhere would sure find a use for them? The bag at least i’m sure!

[vagrant topaz]

I’m sure they would, however I was talking about what would be of use to me and I’m afraid its as useful as a candy floss toothbrush.

[halcyon berry]

Sounds delicious

[pine pine]

Thanks Djz i have done what you have suggested. Ps watch your shows, and listen to your Pod casts, Love them , cheers from scotland.

[vagrant topaz]

But useless 😂

[lone rover]

TC Lag is a serious problem plaguing our server 57 takeovers. Not a client side issue. This happens anytime we have large scale wars during a takeover with hundreds of ships. FIX THE TC LAG Please!

[tranquil crescent]

So... we can now Betray... thats nice.... so... is there any incentive NOT to betray? anything better to get if we stay true and don't get the other avatar? I mean, basically all they are saying is... play the first, Betrayal, and play the 2nd.... what if you choose to stay your own side????

[halcyon berry]

Different mats

[muted granite]

since there is the skirmish systems to fight without changing reputation, is there any reason not to betray?

[tranquil crescent]

well, I did wonder.. Scopely offer us the chance to do so... but then give nothing in alternative but to Betray.... it basically makes their offer pointless

[tight pine]

Which side has which mats/rss? Don’t remember what I got. 🙈

[halcyon berry]

I think Klingon = crystal and trit. Rom = ore and parsteel

I'm not switching because I need more of the same rewards

Avatars and frames are meaningless

[tight pine]

Thx. Will contemplate what to do. Killing swarms in the meantime.

[formal bramble]

Not getting credit for faction credits spent on officer recruits either yesterday or today

[rare dust]

Nor I.

[halcyon berry]

The event is badly worded. It's spend them promoting officers. Any other way of spending doesn't count

[round silo]

I have spent promoting and recruiting officers, but nothing is scoring. WTF? Scopely??!!!!🤬🤬🤬

[uneven relic]

It literally says Promoting an officer

you use Faction credits for promoting

and officer XP

[round silo]

Not scoring!

[round silo]

Worked third time I tried!

[brave plinth]

Just an FYI. If you switch admirals during the territory event. You will not longer earn points.

[dense prairie]

During a takeover or during the entire ALB?

[plain acorn]

not sure if this is intended but after I did the klingon betrayal and collected the token I have an option to join the Romulan Betrayal event. Could be confusing if someone ended up claiming that event on accident. Doesn't seem like this was inteded

[scenic jolt]

I have to say this TC event is complete rubbish. How does it benefit if only the top alliances on a server join forces and mop up everyone else. I mean no one stands a chance to wallet warriors. Scopely you messed up on this one (as usual).

[plain acorn]

any pvp event is going to favor the whales. Honestly I dont like the pvp in this game much. You can't compete with people that are even 2-3 lvls above you. And you barely dent them yourself so they can go on and on without needing to repair.

[lament cipher]

It works the same way as the Klingon one where there is a token at the end. I’m wondering if you do it if you get a choice of which one you want to do.

[uneven relic]

No if you claim the first token you swap sides for the upcoming events, if you claim the second token you go back to the original side

[violet ice]

then dont rush ops...in my case 3-4 level higher cant kill my ships cuz they rushed ops and i camped ops 😅

and 2-3 levels higher is no whale by definition

[brave plinth]

During the entire ALB.. Sent a ticket, so we shall see.

[vapid meteor]

What the hell is going on with these conquest tokens?

I’m being given the option to trade to a different one. Do I take it? Is there a downside (other than faction rep)?

[marsh pond]

to whoever decided that insane points given for TC takeovers, giving 500 million points for a defense, but 2 billon for a take from neutral, so on my server all strong alliances are leaving their territories to apply for any available takeover in range (or all 1s if they leave all) just to leave them as neutral on next turn for another territory, half of origin map will be neutral before event ends, can you put a penalty on those who leave territory? or just balance to make it better to defend than to take a clean one?

[wooden fjord]

The TC system has been nothing but a flash point for a ton of Wars and butthurt players declaring war over OPC hits. Scopely thinks he wars will produce more sales. In fact, the prolonged wars have just led people to quit. Partially because the game progress is already incredibly slow but also because to buy what is necessary is more than most players can afford. $100 on a video game is a LOT of cash. Now for most ship or base upgrades it's going to run $300-$600 for a single upgrade and that's not even tiering up.

[unreal coral]

waste of a leaderboard event, now it's just a normal domination event with frills - event planning for a leaderboard, like last month wasted

[spark marlin]

Scoring for the Sela event other than critical success wins isn’t working

[quiet thorn]

I am not seeing any scoring in Sela event at all

[brave plinth]

Epic or Rare only

[dense turtle]

The 35 Swarms should be worth 70.000 Points, but were Count only with 35.000.

And that at Battlepass Event

Last Monday the swarms does not count properly too

[stone quarry]

Seems to be a bug in last reward tier for cloak and dagger event, I didn't receive tetreons.

Nvm glitch in event page gave me duplicate for disappearing act. My apologies.

[molten hare]

This change to the Sela auction is TERRIBLE! You should've left officer and Ship power as they were and made us learn how it works

[dull kelp]

Upgrading operations on station did not score on Sele Pt1

[kindred aurora]

For people that made the mistake and double-betrayed in the events, would it be possible to have the gift respawn so you can keep exchanging the tokens and get the one you want?

[raven stag]

srsly @ removing borg mining recruit chest same day i get the 2nd set of transponders to use it from BP?

[livid echo]

I need your help with more than 5 spots on winning in this event thats a whole lot of work at the moment for me.. 😊 so could you/STFC add more scoring positions

[normal elm]

Yeah that event is nuts

[turbid hamlet]

Territory Conquest... One of those.. HEY this sounds awesome! Till you see what it actually becomes. On our Server it was nothing but.. Drop Territory you own minutes before.. and recapture it easily (since you have all your bases already in territory) and score loads of points without the intent of shifting around some of the territory for actual movement within. Hey thats awesome for the Territory Whales to get even more stuff than they are already getting!! On top of all this, the current strategy is spam the system preloading it with so many ships the lag is ungodly horrible and makes any sort of legit takeover near impossible. DISALLOW ANYONE not directly involved in a Territory capture from Entering the system. THE LAG MAKES THIS UNPLAYABLE when Too many are in the system.

[spare creek]

As a lvl 36 epics are impossible FYI

[turbid hamlet]

Ys its stupid they continue to allow 39s to compete in the same bracket as those that dont have access to Epics

[proper kettle]

as an ops 36 you're stiffed in a bunch of the events, pvp events include ops 40, most of the slb's including ops 39 (sometimes higher) there's a big disadvantage to an ops 36 in most of the slb event because of this, simply can't compete with the bigger badder ships etc

[dark horizon]

Who @Scopely came up with the idea to make the ISS Jellyfish leaderboard the same for level 36 and level 42, how in the world would a lvl 36 would have the resources to compete with level 42s ? Ferengis would be ashamed of your practices - 13 out of top 15 in the leaderboard are 39-42

[drowsy solar]

Another 2 days of armada killing, after all the recent events with a requirement to kill armadas? Most non whales on my server burned through their directives already. This month, if any, was when a gift of directives would have been greatly appreciated by the community. The only way for most to complete the upcoming event & the one next week, is to buy a £90 pack & most probably won't. It's so blatant a push towards buying a directives pack in order to compete, that you could have yet more negative feedback from the community. Swing & a miss Scopely.

[short ermine]

The sheer volume of armada events is feckin ridiculous in the arc

[rough ravine]

Since it is 'damage' based, killing Klingon burial ships, which uses regular armada directives, is a good option. You don't get the points for the directives, but you do for the damage. And it only costs 20 UC directives to start one instead of 100.

[manic estuary]

Thank you for armada hunt format

[tacit hollow]

Machinations Part 1-Why is a lvl 35 assigned a mission in the arc that is recommended for lvl 45 and requires warp 80???

[stark ether]

Same issue here, how am I supposed to finish the arc when I cannot even get a ship to the system that is the first step. What the hell Scopely!

[worn shadow]

Tier 9 Enterprise can't even reach that system. Come on Scopley!

[dark pine]

Could u work on ur descriptions

Also that’s a massive grind for 1 shard to be frank

[wooden fjord]

Scopely has drained us dry of armada rare and epic directives trying to complete the armada events. Frankly my entire alliance is tapped. Not that any of us had any real epic directives to begin with as there's no reasonable way to get them. We're not even participating in this one. We'll grind hostiles, but the armadas ... WTF scopely.

[devout trail]

So you get 100 borg recruit tokens in today's BP reward but the borg chest is gone from the officer recruit page.. real smart. @tropic ibex

[uneven relic]

whats more funny is the screenshot of a screenshot 😄 hahahaha

[mystic geyser]

It gets worse. I put Scotty on my Franklin-A to give me Warp 85... and the next waypoint needs Warp 120....

[tacit hollow]

😂

[mystic geyser]

At some point Scopely will realise that making missions too easy is no fun; and making them impossible is no fun also... 😂🖖

[stone quarry]

Wow last mission key warp 80 required? Really? How satisfied is Scopely with that disappointing disadvantage?

[lusty rock]

15 armadas to finish this lame reward, wont do it again

[mellow goblet]

Really? I’m lvl 36 and I get Machinations part 1 lvl 45 mission with starting warp of 80… what’s the point in this ?

[halcyon berry]

Archive it. Come back later

[mellow goblet]

I about 2-3 real life years 😂

Can’t wait to equip my ent-d lvl 50 skin too 😂😂😂 I can show it off in about 8 years time

[fresh frost]

Ohnoes you got free stuff that you can do later..

[vapid meteor]

These leaderboard events for new officers, ship bps, refits etc are terrible and just leave the majority of the server annoyed

Take a look at how a console game like Destiny dishes out new content. A teeny tiny fraction of content is locked behind a timed PVP event. The rest are earned through a non-time based quest system.

Imagine instead of having to save every resource you earn, for months on end hoping it’s needed in an event. You get a really long mission. Phase one, kill 10000 swarm, phase 2 kill 50 players, phase 3 donate 1b parsteel to your alliance, phase 4 kill 20 rare armadas etc. Tougher challenges, but no time limit

Then instead of players being forced to not play the game (unable to upgrade ships, waiting for events). Instead players are able to spend their rss, and chip away at a long mission every day.

This has another massive bonus for players who can’t play everyday. I’ve missed many of these rewards because it happens at the same time I’m working around the clock in work to get something released. Then I’m off for 2 days, and I have nothing to do in the game because the event is over.

Credit card warriors can still buy packs to get missions done easier, free to play can do 1% everyday

A quest system like this, would be a massive step in the right direction for this game

[teal gate]

can't believe battle pass mission 2 is level 45+ only! you need warp 80 to start the mission! another useless mission stuck in the menu for eternity!

[tranquil crescent]

So I did the initial Betrayal event, and so got the option to trade my Klingon token in for a Romulan one (with 26 minutes as of now left still to use it).... and I'd assume the 2-day countdown on actually doing the token swap was 2 days to consider if you wanted to use it. But now I'm reading that if I'd used the betrayal token already, I'd have had 2 days of other events... and a chance to betray back? Colour me very confused - Option 1 makes the most sense, Option 2 sadly sounds like Scopely ... :/

[shrewd herald]

again armada event...
... how very exciting scopely 🤮 💩 👎

[lone obsidian]

It'd be great if I could do the Romulan kill Klingons this go around. Didn't realize they gave us both tokens so now I'm back to square one. God forbid I wait for my support ticket I'll miss the entire event by the time they actually respond. @tropic ibex any insight on why we were offered both tokens?

Should've had a warning or indicator of sorts to tell you what you've completed.

[worn shadow]

Scopley, we should be able to complete all event missions. Please fixed that warp 80 requirement.

[vagrant topaz]

Im lvl 37. How can i complete lvl45 mission?

[junior pond]

You can't, at least right now. Several arcs back there was a lot of complaining that only the highest level players were being given the extra high level mission, so players at lower levels never had a chance to get the mission and finish it later. So Scopley actually listened, and started giving it to all players to archive for later. Now every one is jumping on not being able to do the mission right away. For all their faults, I think they actually did the right thing here.

[kindred mesa]

Yup, I don’t get why everyone is complaining, just archive it, that’s why we got the archive thing…

[vagrant topaz]

Few months before there was a same problem, i have an incomplete lvl 40 mission. BTW thank you🖖

[vagrant topaz]

Because i want play?!

[simple hazel]

Lvl 34 with a dark space arc mission. And event finish rewards tied to it. Yeah…. That’s fair.

[twilit gust]

The one downside of the archive is that it takes up a mission slot. I usually like finishing missions and then actually hitting the complete button when I need the rep/RSS or there is a recruit event for officers. It would be nice if you could pick up as many missions as you wanted and they only had a limit on active missions rather than active+archived

[proper kettle]

anybody suffering from armada fatigue 😄

[halcyon berry]

Absolutely 🤣

[manic estuary]

agreed the game loses a lot of charm when you have to wait all your advancement for them to get around to it instead of advancing as you earn

[vapid meteor]

Nothing ruins this game more, like needing 10k uncommon for a single ship upgrade. Waiting 6 months to earn it, and then sitting on it for another 3 months hoping for one of those stupid jelly bp events. Hoping nobody else has done exactly the same thing.

It’s a super bad design

[halcyon berry]

It's the perfect design. It's exactly how you get people to spend money.
When you enter the jelly event, after waiting that long and spend that many resources, you're determined to win it. So is everyone else. That leads to people spending money to stay ahead in an ever be escalating race.
scopley wins. Scopley always wins.

[torn estuary]

We just tell our people to avoid the Jelly event. We don’t even have a 3* territory to offer as an alternative route. It’s just too much.

[vocal breach]

If Scopely carry on with this territory competition nonsense a lot of folk will be leaving the game. That’s for certain

[proper zenith]

Rethink the bracket ranges again.
One armada event is having 39-41 on one board which seems fine while other got 40-45. So those with 42 ship obviously have a big advantage which 40/41 could never have.

[manic estuary]

disappearing act not scoring right

[manic estuary]

@tropic ibex It would be nice if disappearing act was scoring!!

[hard plume]

How often again armada events? Its boring, frustrating and bullsh... many of our alliance now not willing to run it no one has directives after 2 weeks with nearly permanent armada event. First ones leaving the game and quit by frustration ...well done if that is the goal of scopely, go on with that crap and scope will reach the goal
The worst is 2 times waste of directives cause in the same seconds 3 ally flags pop up on one armada funny funny funny

[jovial zinc]

The number of armada events, especially back to back is ridiculous

[hearty granite]

You've gone all out on that discovery S4 gift Scopely, I don't know how your still in business giving so much away...

[shrewd herald]

oh armada event ... again
how exciting ... 👎

[pale estuary]

Pretty sure if you are going to celebrate discovery S4 you need to put Lorca in the disco officer chest. Or you’re just saying it’s a non-event and we shouldn’t bother subscribing to paramount+.

[rocky kraken]

Think the event team need sacking more boring amarda events and now only scoring off 1 faction, Your game is becoming a laughing stock

[warm mortar]

Armada Directives sourcing needs to be improved.

[hard plume]

like in the rogue shop, on the other hand scope has it source, you can buy the galaxy armada package....its only 99€ 😄

[nimble hound]

Does anybody know about points in territory capture when cloaked?

[halcyon berry]

They're normal

[manic estuary]

Let me guess, these idiots think that half the server going after one faction is somehow an improvement over whole server going after 3 factions , right?

Or they're simply malicious?

[cosmic slate]

This arc is pretty much as boring and bad as the last TNG arc. I wonder how many folks here are actually employed and don't have the time to spend all day fighting armadas and killing a ridiculous amount of hostiles. Not asking for hand outs Scopely, just some time to take a fuckin breath form this game without losing out on anything substantial. Arc after Arc after work with the introduction of some useless officers

[wooden blaze]

Hostiles not scoring!

[halcyon berry]

You get 1 point for killing a hostile. Unless you can kill hundreds of millions of them it won't make any difference.

[shrewd herald]

its only 1 point per kill
good luck competing by killing reds 😉
you need a good bot

[wooden blaze]

@halcyon berry Good attitude. I am in the top 50 and not getting any points at all now.Directive sourcing is atrocious and I refuse the option to buy Armada packs! Your a Wallet Warrior then I take it!

[halcyon berry]

Not at all. I also have no directives left.
But look at your score and your position. 46th with 35 million points. How many hostiles are you planning on killing to get up the leaderboard?
I can't see the scores at the top of your leaderboard, but I can guarantee you that killing hostiles for one point per hostile isn't going to get you anywhere

It's ambitious, but pointless.

[wooden blaze]

Point is it should be working!

[halcyon berry]

Sure, it should be. And is for me. But it may as well not be a scoring mechanism in this event. It's completely worthless when one single armada can get millions of points.

That's a criticism of the event, btw.

[wooden blaze]

Impressed you can look at my score, are you on svr 32 ,don't recognise the name?

[halcyon berry]

It says your score on your screenshot 😉

Bottom right corner

[wooden blaze]

Your correct though, it's a fruitless exercise without directives.None the less I shouldn't be exluded from trying because of a bug.Oh forgot about the screenshot.LOL

[kindred mesa]

It is scoring, it is not damage done to hostiles, it is 1 point per hostile.

[brave flicker]

Is there any reason why the rewards for the romulans are so much worse than the klingon slbs? (Both events for same level players)

[torn estuary]

I wonder if Paramount knows that Scopely couldn't even do a simple product tie-in correctly. Any player who had the maximum Origins Burnham shards that they handed out had little idea what that was even about.

[mild glacier]

These armada events are really boring and frustrating. Waiting for an armada to spawn still sucks! Stop having leaderboards with armada events, it just makes them worse!!!

[torn estuary]

But how would they sell their Armada Packs?

[outer wigeon]

The armada events need to be toned down a lot. Not enough available armadas when you only score points on one faction. Requiring a lot of rare or epics to score points is also really bad.

[wooden blaze]

@kindred mesa I know. Was on 3549500 and it didn't go up to 3549501 after several Skirmisher and normal Rom hostile attempts.. If I loose out from rewards by 2k that could have ground out because the mechanic wasn't working I won't be happy.(4daysx500 hostiles for this evemt)

[uneven relic]

Only thing to do is kill 100, and see if it changes, if I remember sometimes they don’t show the lower numbers, so double check that, also what are you hitting for the hostiles

[wooden blaze]

Tried 28 and 38 Rom Skirmishers, 21 and 40 Rom Survey.It stopped working 30 mins before event reset and started working after.Then just stopped all together.I'll try 100 but don't expect they will register.

No toasts popping!

[viscid phoenix]

Do you have battle screen mode active?

[wooden blaze]

No toast with battlescreen on or off!

[scenic flint]

Pvp in Qualor is not scoring points

[rough ravine]

Why the heck did you make it so we had to JOIN the Borg Barot ranking event. There is absolutely no reason why we shouldn't (like the daily mining events if you want to push one faction). Didn't notice that and finished a bunch of researches. Then saw that those points were completely wasted (at least on that event). Complete BS!

[frank spade]

You mean no reason why we should... since it's only top 5, only 10 to 15 players need to compete and you should know if you're one of them or not. Let me hide events that I don't want to participate in scopley because they're stupid

[copper tiger]

Is there a 10 point bouns credit I'm not seeing? 100 points to complete but only 90 can be earned?

[orchid mango]

Our alliance is not gaining any points from defence and take-overs for the Balance of Power Event. How is this possible? We just dropped and retook Nyrheimur (see screenshots). We are still stuck at 28M points! We should have gotten 15B for the take-over of Nyrheimur alone!!!!

[high vault]

@copper tiger pretty sure resource event runs again in like 2 days or something

[uneven relic]

If you look at the events we had 1x 48hr, and 2x 24 hr (10 pt) events yesterday.= 80 points.
Look at todays events, we have 2x 24 hr events each give 10 pts, = 100

[simple badger]

Why is Epic G3 not included?

[uneven relic]

There is no epic g3

[simple badger]

Well doh lol....guess there's the answer 😁

[astral scarab]

The Recruit Borg Barot Event is not giving points for factions points used to recruit officers. I used 6000 faction points and got zero event progress.

[uneven relic]

The description reads promote your officers to strengthen your ships,
Levelling uses Officer XP, Promoting officers uses Officer XP and faction credits. That’s the scoring

It’s doesn’t say anywhere to get recruit tokens.

It’s the exact same scoring as yesterday, which also never scored for spending on recruit tokens,

[astral scarab]

It says: Officer Intel spent | 1

Faction Credit spent | 10

that's what it actually says.

[uneven relic]

The description reads promote your officers to strengthen your ships,
Levelling uses Officer XP, Promoting officers uses Officer XP and faction credits. That’s the scoring

I can repeat it again if you want….

The description reads promote your officers to strengthen your ships,

Levelling uses Officer XP, Promoting officers uses Officer XP and faction credits. That’s the scoring

[astral scarab]

I did get points for using credits as part of promotion costs

[uneven relic]

It’s the same event as yesterday with the same scoring

[astral scarab]

not very clear

I didn't promote anyone yesterday

[uneven relic]

What can be more clear then saying it’s a promote officers event??

[iron python]

If you think a scoring metric that's listed isn't working, please submit a ticket. Directions are in #557163704383438850

[uneven relic]

Because you get points for levelling and promotion

[iron python]

So ticket is the best option to investigate

[astral scarab]

It was not clear to me that you get credits for faction credits used as part of promotion cost

i promoted a fed officer, and i got points for the intel points used and the faction credits

[iron python]

Yeah, the naming of that scoring box isn't great.

We've let the team know.

[uneven relic]

It was worse yesterday with confusion

That’s why today they put it in one tab, upgrade officers

[iron python]

Yeah, I know. That's why I have this on speed dial.

🤣

The other one I find myself explaining a lot is Commons not counting (different event). So I have that one too. 🤣

[copper tiger]

Guess I just wasn't patient enough 😂

[tulip token]

Anyone else having issues

I’ve tried using gold to upgrade and got nothing and used fed credit

[uneven relic]

Level Up officers with Officer xp, and promote officers using xp and Faction credits,

[tulip token]

@uneven relic yeah I figured it out now wording tripped me up

[light narwhal]

Whaozers! I’m not getting ahead on this one at all. Anyone else havjng a hard time?

[feral dune]

Why does the territory event run 9 days, doesn’t make sense. Our alliance has A T3, 3x T2 and a T1 we should win but cause the event runs odd time so some territory is counted twice we will only get 3rd place. Where is the logic in how long the event has run?

A week or 2 weeks would have seemed to be the sensible timeframe

[fresh frost]

Also encourages people to move about for the best score.. TC looks like it's got moths on our server 😅

But yeah, a multiple of a week would make more sense

[vapid meteor]

It’s not prompting any PvP in our server at all. All the whale alliances have enough zones, they just dropped them before hand, recapture and score the high points

[lethal tulip]

The TC event is a dud. Alliances with territories just dropped and retook them to score easy points. Not to mention smaller alliances stand no chance.

1. Alliances shouldn’t be able to reclaim a territory they just dropped without a timer.
2. Only alliances participating in a takeover should be allowed in the systems. That would also help with lag.

[undone night]

The Takeover Event really sucks. In our server, the top 8 alliances have banded together to protect each other's butts so no new alliances have a chance to gain territory.

[mighty star]

On my server it is similar. It is natural that that is the endstate using current game rules. Scopely tried to change things with the TC event but has not thought hard enough, i would say

[stable ivy]

Have to agree, the event is a total fail, till the game mechanics force aliances to compeate head to head without the rest of the server jumpiing in on either side, all you have it a stalemate

not to mention the lag that happens needs to be addressed

[vagrant topaz]

Scopley, I really like the tokens offered during this arc in all the events and the player ranges expanded to 25-50. Please continue this trend.

[pallid spade]

"Thank you for contacting us and for raising your concern about the "Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum" event. Please take note that some events are only available on certain servers. If your server does not have the said event, rest assured that it will also be available on your server in the future. What I can do for now is to share your feedback about this with the team. Your voice matters to us."

Yet, it was listed on our server as 3 separate events...Scopely is the worst

[slate stump]

Really?

No rounding up ?

[fresh frost]

But we probably get 2 milestones today

so try not to worry too much

they've done really well on the pacing this month to get us one thing every day (except for yesterday)

[balmy totem]

Please never run the TC Takeover event again in that format. Admiral of strongest alliance on my server here. Us and our main ally got first and second, it was <redacted> and I hated every day of it, can't imagine what everyone else thought of it. Had to completely dunk on a neighbouring alliance for no tactical or strategic reasons, just to score points in an event, we've already abandoned those zones to let that alliance retake them.

If you want to do something meaningful with territories then perhaps look at introducing incrementally increasing upkeep costs for territories when boundaries remain unchanged or something, stopping allies from being involved in battles, stop drop/retaking territories from being a thing by introducing a cooldown etc etc.

I want there to be battles, but I want them to be due to scarcity of resources or the importance of a service. Actual meaningful things from a tactical/strategic stand point. Not just here's a event, go <redacted> over some people who have no chance to fight back.

And if you must, MUST, run the event again then for the love of god make it last either 7 or 14 days. Don't <redacted> over some alliances by making events that last for other amounts of days, meaning their territories may be counted a different number of times to other alliances territories.

[willow quest]

@balmy totem please remove swearing from your post or it will be deleted, thanks 🖖

[balmy totem]

...

[strange rune]

plus the rewards are...

https://tenor.com/view/rhino-pooping-enormous-gross-shit-gif-5595661

[balmy totem]

I actually thought the rewards were pretty good, maybe not if you divided it by 11 days or whatever I'll give you, but it was more the everything else I took issue with...

[strange rune]

utter garbage for the event duration.

i've raked in over 100bn steel from all the other 1-2 day events. winning the TC event rewards a fraction of this and lasts 10x as long

[obsidian lily]

coming back to the TC event again, there is no balance where the event closed at 5UTC on a Monday where there are two systems (Eldur and Abilakk) that could not score pts. completely stuffed the alliances who owned those systems as everyone else were able to score 5bn through the drop and retake play. It should start on a tuesday and end on a tuesday so every single system is counted at least once. its not rocket science and whoever dreamt up the 9 day event structure should be ashamed of themselves

[mild glacier]

For the last time: STOP “forgetting” TO INCLUDE UNCOMMON DIRECTIVES IN ARMADA EVENTS.

[cedar moss]

I love running armadas, but christ almighty the armada fatigue the last couple of months is real

[dense hare]

Concur with @balmy totem . Here's what this event was like on server 56: The overwhelming largest alliance on the server that nobody else can touch marched around Origin space taking and dropping territories at whim for pure points, trashing almost every other alliance on the server in the process. Not for advantage, not to settle a grudge, not for access to services, simply to ensure that they won the event. Great event for them. Miserable event for everyone else.
If this becomes a regular event it will SIGNIFICANTLY erode the value of holding territory at all. A lot of smaller alliances may simply decide it isn't worth the trouble. Half a dozen alliances on 56 got obliterated simply because they were in the way as top-four alliances took their territory only to drop it two minutes after the TC ended.

Awful, terrible, misconceived event that overwhelmingly benefits the most powerful alliances on the server.

We had players quit the game over this event. It was the final straw for them.

[vapid meteor]

Sick to death of these constant armada events. Phone buzzing every few minutes, missing a chance to get a spot by a few mins because of how long it takes to sync messages

Only rare and epic no uncommon, and no directive drops to pay for them

[wooden fjord]

@old grail @tropic ibex Go talk to the rest of the Devs. We're tapped, we have no more Rare or Epic armada directives and to keep putting out events that requires them is just lazy!

https://imgflip.com/i/5v9uzh

[tight pine]

This current event is scoring points per damage dealt. Running epics and rares for their directive points is not really smart since you can score on uc. Save the epics and rares for events where you can ONLY score with them. And even then think twice if you really need the rewards. Running rare armadas during g3 spend event is just plain dumb.

[wooden fjord]

More than likely, they're bleeding us dry and the next set of special purchase packs will try to sell us what they've depleted.

[visual minnow]

Maybe just maybe, next arc we all just not do it, not one does the events no one buys packs. If we want change, then maybe not complain about it and still buy packs and do the events.

[wooden fjord]

I've spent the last 2 hours grinding hostiles for the Tal shiar Purge..... I REALLY don't want to live in this game just to eek out a little reward. We keep hearing from Rev Deuce that they've heard us and hostile grinding for 20 hours a day in game is NOT what was going to be our future.... then scopely laughs and does the same thing... different day.

https://imgflip.com/i/5vac2q

If I could get all level 40's it would only be 97 hostiles to complete that event. At 2.5 per minute if I'm really lucky that's only around 45 minutes of doing nothing other that hostiles for just THAT event. And so far, I've been getting mostly 39's /sigh

[uneven relic]

what Ops level are you??

[visual minnow]

If you just pay $99.99 you can be done in 30 seconds.

[wooden fjord]

I'm ops 40

Problem is, to get to the mining dailies I'm burning through relocation tokens. And that's the only way to get my enterprise into deep space for higher level NPC's. So in normal space it's 40-41 tops without jumping into Kronos 60's which doesn't help

[uneven relic]

Then why not go do light or heavy traders? That helps a bunch

Do you have a jelly?

Cos jelly brawl is 50 of them just doing that

Can hit 39s and 40s in the Romulan system for that

[wooden fjord]

No Jelly. We have a LOT of credit card warriors on my server and I've all but given up on a Jelly.

[uneven relic]

I got mine through epic armada chests, don’t need to bother with the jelly auction, I never did, only took about 6 months of chests,

I’m ops 39

so definitely possible and not that hard, also if you have a 3* territory that’s another way also to get a few extra as well. I got it just for the events, and only upgrade it during a material spend, easy to do it with the materials the events give ya

[wooden fjord]

I have an alliance of 18, and I'm over double the power of the next guy in line. We do have bigger alliances I could go to, but frankly they're a lot of drama.

[fresh frost]

Which systems are you doing the mining dailies in? If you have a meridian, it can get to deep space and is good for overnighting a node (providing your server doesn't hit opc in deepspace...) if you have a discovery with summon and the warp range research for level you should be able to get to the lower 4* systems

At 41 a max disco can get you to the hubs, too

[faint torrent]

DO NOT have officer and ship XP as part of these officer auctions ever again!

I just got bumped last minuet from rank 4 to 7 with no hope of being able to go up to 6, ever.

After holding myself in the 2-3, i get dropped to 3-4 for a whole day. Then last minuet drop like a rock. This was a STUPID change!

wasted AT assignments, speedups, and refresh tokens trying to not be one of those who dumps XP, just to get bumped by those using XP.

[pallid pasture]

So, the recent Away team event, it needs rework as the event gives very little time to complete vs the rate at which epic or rare missions show up. As it is, there is no good means of acquiring 12 hour or greater speed ups to finish majority of rare missions that are 2-3 days long. Even on the one day long ones, we have to start them right at reset or burn a couple of speed ups to get the mission back in time. But that whole time I didnt see one epic missions spawn. I used what refresh tokens I had, and again, need a means to acquire these, yet not one epic appeared. Not one. So please rework away team events to either at the minimum a two day event, or give us a method to get speed ups that we can actually use on said events.

[deep halo]

If next month the plan for events rewards will be : only token for event store, please not do it. Or in rewards give token for events store and rss. Great part of ppl like event store only if there is good officers to keep. And isn't that the case. Everyone could survive withouth sela worf or others.

[vapid meteor]

Are we supposed to have unlocked 11 of 11 (Borg Crystal miner) by now?

I’ve done all the events but only have 75% of the shards. Not sure if this is intended or not

[uneven relic]

there another roung of Borg Barot events this weekend.....
Calender

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/656542930693128257/907706083064311808/2111_scs_m36_duality_calendar_eng.png

[vapid meteor]

Thanks, lost the calendar. Was worried it was winding down now with 4 days left, and my events bugged out or something

[pastel tusk]

I think these Armada events arent really designed as well as they could be.

Armadas are a team/alliance activity and should probably have less emphasis on individual goals and rewards and more longer term alliance goals.

Having an ALB AND AMS for say 2x 7 or 1x 21 day Armada event with smaller SLB optionally added would probably be more effective and popular.

A lot of my allies and friends have Real Life to deal with and cannot contribute much or anything to these short directive intensive SLBs particularly during office hours!

Any chance this can be looked into?

🖖

[rancid fractal]

What a lousy thanksgiving event. A bunch of crappy easy to get Romulan officers. It's like someone put in effort to make it this bad. 💩 💩 💩

[indigo oracle]

At least it has no phindra bp

[sturdy fjord]

I think you forgot to add a 0 on the amount of points scored guys 😅

[cedar moss]

derp

640 helps, or 160 contributions.

[uncut radish]

Feels like I'm being trolled

[hot bluff]

So if I did my math right (never a sure bet) I would have to donate 9.4b steel to max out the SMS and in return I get 4.4b steel, a handful of G3/4 and a few old officer shards or a couple days worth of faction credits. Wow, it's like early Christmas 😝

[toxic wraith]

Lucky you I'd have to donate 900m steel to get back 160m

[drowsy solar]

Doh-pely, your Thanksgiving Event store rewards are an insult & a joke. That is all.

[toxic wraith]

19 unc ore 10 rare ore only 10k store loot

Or do 640 helps for a normal alliance contrib event requiring just 60 helps a day

[manic estuary]

It would make a lot more sense if rewards on these were per ap

[toxic wraith]

Am ops 38its crazy

[manic estuary]

but still scoring is ridicuolous

[bleak kayak]

Where are FED and independent credits?

[toxic wraith]

Ops 39 spend 900m steel get 4. 5b steel back

Absolutely crazy broken

[lunar zealot]

You're both lucky I'd have to donate 11B steel to get 57M back...

Dumb event to require donations/helps on a day when people won't be online for a hilariously bad reward.

[uneven relic]

Or just do helps for 2 days and then spend quarter of what your complaining about in steel to finish it, or just don’t finish it

[lunar zealot]

Steven, I think people are complaining about the event being hilariously bad and not "omg, how do I finish this"

[clever sail]

Thanksgiving event shittest thing ever

[lunar zealot]

and 640 helps on a family holiday in 2 days is ridiculous as well. It's just very poorly thought out

Events, especially special holiday events, should be thought out a bit better

[jovial zinc]

Agree but there are also no events to kill stuff so in my alliance at what is usually a very active time I’ve had 3 help requests in the last 45 min. This means to do the event it’s gonna cost me a ton of rss to only earn part of it back. Plus a few charvenak shards

Pretty expensive shards

[keen nimbus]

THANKS for another time wasting speciality event

[cedar moss]

the lack of other events exacerbate making progress in this one tonight - most of my alliance will simply take the night off as Master Surveyor can be finished in 5 minutes and the only other event is the Thanksgiving one.

[stone void]

Way too many helps to finish this. I spammed donations for a minute and barely cleared the first milestone lol. Guess I need to camp the game over a holiday to mash the help button. Awesome 👍😎

[strong igloo]

Seriously scopely bad officers

give us the new officers its better then this

[stone void]

Charv is a great officer

Nero pretty good now too actually, though lots of people will have him maxed already

Same with Gorkon I suppose

[strong igloo]

dont need them

20 recruits max is a needle in a hey stack compared to what i need to promote them

[stone void]

This game is all about incremental progress. I'll take the shards.

[toxic wraith]

And while devs are on holiday... No support

[lusty rock]

I'm trying to figure out how to do 600 help or if it's worth 300 million par, any suggestion

[jovial zinc]

If teammates crash their phindra, they can generate help requests and let the hindrance repair for free. If enough members do this you can generate a lot of helps

[tired sun]

This thanksgiving event is heartless and insensitive. You are requiring players to be online to make these clan donations that are set at a very high and difficult level. Requires players to be online for many hours today....isn’t thanksgiving about spending time with the family? Not a mobile game? Shame on you guys.

[lethal mountain]

Seriously, not only is the event ridiculous, but the event store is even worse. Definitely a “pop a three day shield and enjoy life instead” kind of event.

[ruby ivy]

Rather disappointing event store.

[swift oyster]

Send d'vor/ botany bay into enemy territory, let it get shot, click repair, ask for help wait 5 mins, repeat

Not the most fun event to do

[silver briar]

These events are always trash. Who thought that 640 helps over two days of a family holiday was a good idea? Fire that team

and if you think donating 35m par per contribution is reasonable you need the rewards to matter

[jovial zinc]

Worst event design yet.

[mystic kraken]

Thanks for making people feel like 💩 for not being able to complete the only event on thanksgiving. Really thoughtful

[floral arch]

The Thanksgiving event sucks 😞 not even wasting time on it

[thorny perch]

I guess they want us to donate the billions of parsteel they gave us this arc

[pearl loom]

I feel the same as most, this thanksgiving event is unreasonable to complete

[strong anchor]

How do Borg Barot events adding up to 90 points win the meta SMS requiring 100 points?

[tender wadi]

Has anyone received a free ticket yet for today's Ticketed Events? Are we likely to get one?

[scenic flint]

The borg hunt event doesn't seem to be awarding points for lvl 24 swarms

[halcyon berry]

There's one more day. With more events.

[hollow iron]

Is there no battle pass event today for lower level players? I'm at 21 and no milestone to complete but our admiral had a doomsday event

[scenic flint]

@hollow iron try restarting?

[hollow parcel]

I missing Borg Battle event on lvl 22

[hollow iron]

I did that @scenic flint, but I submitted a ticket and shortly later a hostile hunt event was there

Super odd

[scenic flint]

Server delay

[lunar zealot]

I really hope next BP has events other than "Spend an ungodly amount of mats and run an ungodly amount of armadas"... because after the last 2 I'm beyond wiped out. to the point where if it continues like this I'm gonna quit the game. You can't force us all to be whales to play the game. jesus, have some reason with the amount of stuff you expect us to complete if you only give the building blocks in drips and dribbles. I get on average 28 unc a day. and maybe 5-10 rare credits. but you're expecting us to spend about a thousand a week.

[strong anchor]

Last time it was an error they had to compensate for. That's why I'm pointing it out now this time

[uneven relic]

Seriously……. We had the same last weekend too and it all totalled up correctly this is the 3rd run, if you don’t get it by now……..

[left marlin]

Hey Scopely, can you plz put the Borg Recruit chests back in the Recruit menu? I’m still sitting on 300 Borg Transponders, thx

[scenic flint]

Did they increase the cost of the shards for the Thanksgiving event? I swear the cost seem to have doubled

[scenic flint]

Also, not sure how I didn't notice it. But I only have Romulan and Klingon officers and credits in the Thanksgiving store. No Federation. Was that on purpose?

[lunar zealot]

Probably tied to the rom/klin arc

[jaunty jay]

Can you do ONE thing to fix this terrible “event store”. Add 3/11 so we can actually unlock her to go along with 4&11/11.

[halcyon berry]

All are the same for me

[halcyon berry]

It's a Rom/Klingon arc. The whole thing is focussed on them.

[scenic flint]

I swear it didn't cost 45k for 10 chests of the officer shards

[strong anchor]

It was fixed after the event started, and those of us who’d already scored before the fix had to contact support. That’s what I “get” thx

[uneven relic]

Yes but that had nothing to do with the listed points of the event.

[strong anchor]

Ok whatever you say

[uneven relic]

The points listed are the points you get by finishing the particular event, yes one event didn’t trigger the points,

we had this the last 2x weekends, 2x 10 point events today, plus the 60 point 48hr event = 80.
2 more 10 point events tomorrow = 100

1 event runs twice,

That’s why it shows as 90 in the list.

Yes the first weekend the event that ran on the second day didn’t trigger the 10 points it was supposed to, but that had nothing to do with the list of scoring

[twilit gust]

When I first checked about an hour after the event started it was 4.5k per shard. Immediately compared to the credits’ cost and Nero/Gorkon were very overpriced compared to buying recruit tokens

[scenic flint]

But you can't but recruit tokens with the event creds?

[swift gale]

The Thanksgiving Alliance Contribution SMS is broken. I could understand it maybe if it was an AMS. Will we be compensated for how impossibly dumb it would be to complete?

[tight pine]

You won’t get a compensation but lots of players finished it. And especially the dolphins and whales probably finished it (what are 5bn steel in contributions when your buildings need 100bn). I am finished too.

[floral arch]

Another armada event this is getting to be bs give us events that pay out directives to do events I haven't been able to do last two with no directives and yes I am a free to play person

[vagrant topaz]

Cost me about 250mil of parasteel to complete. Was easy and I’m f2p

I raid that in like one night so not to bad

[twilit gust]

You should be getting at least 2 Uncommon Armadas worth of directives free every week, which works for the damage dealt events. The Rare/Epic events like the Resource Deployments can also use UC/R material spend, and I’ll usually save research/upgrades that cost a lot of mats for those events. I almost always skip the SLBs that require those kinds of spends unless I’ve saved for a while and have a lot to compete, since a low ranking usually isn’t too worthwhile.

[manic estuary]

Why do I have 84 points on recruit borg when smallest prize is 10? ps I've completed everything

[royal widget]

So, even with my alliance doing some help farming, still had to spend about 40 million parsteel to get 5 million parsteel. And 2 rare ore.

[uneven relic]

did you finish all the events yesterday? and all the events today??

[manic estuary]

Yes but it fixed itself with the next event I finished, I had this happen a couple of times on these combined events

[uneven relic]

well then you had'nt finished everything then.....

[manic estuary]

I had up to that point

[muted granite]

what was the next event you finished? mayhap it was the ones that gives partial progress

[uneven relic]

In the borg events tier 3 and tier 4 give the total points, 4 from tier 3, and 6 pts from tier 4.

you had 84 so meant you had finished tier 3 of one event but hadn't finighed the final tier

[manic estuary]

Yeah pretty sure I didn't have an event in progress (except overall event) on either occasion, doesn't matter much now in any case

and in both cases when I finished next event total added exceeded that event

[halcyon berry]

It could be lag. The main event doesn't update immediately sometimes, making it look like you got partial points for an event. A restart might fix it, otherwise scoring more points or time can do it.
I'm glad you got it sorted 👍

[north ledge]

The Leadership SLB has some weird timing for the SLB, and is extremely unfriendly to EU players, where it ends at 1 AM on a working day - you know, many of us need to sleep before going to work, so we will not participate too much in the last couple of hours - and since that is time where most of the scoring rush happens, and where people are most likely to buy a pack to help them with event... it is a weird decision imho.

[novel totem]

Faction hunt scoring metrics need to be updated. It was fun at ops 31. Not so much at ops 40+. The rewards pretty much stayed the same. The ships you kill also. So it's just more to kill for basically the same reward.

[vagrant topaz]

They were just updated…

[mystic flower]

So what happend with the turkey avatar? Did anyone see this pop up in an event?

[wooden fjord]

Scopely dev's didn't want their face or image out there as an Avitar.

[novel totem]

scoring metrics seem the same old to me?!

[vagrant topaz]

Most of this is new right?

[novel totem]

my complaint was not about the 50+ range

[vagrant topaz]

Previously, I think the highest bracket was 41 and up for 12 points

[merry plaza]

This whole event needs a refresh for more mature servers, I am getting the same rewards as a ops 44. Which is not great.

I am ops 38

[fresh frost]

That's weird, because I get 4* from lat rush at 41...

[merry plaza]

That's my rewards @fresh frost I'm 38

😁

[fresh frost]

But, that means you aren't getting the same rewards... don't get me wrong, lat rush still stinks, and I have no idea why anyone competes in it, but they are different 😂

[merry plaza]

Ah sorry he's getting the same par values.

Are you?@fresh frost

[fresh frost]

yeah, negligable 😂

[merry plaza]

Not too worried about maths they are what the are just feel the parsteel could do with a bump.

[wispy flax]

Dear Scopely, can I just say awesome job on the Birthday celebrations event and also the rewards for server merge. Our dedication for the past three years is obviously appreciated as shown by your never ending generosity. Bravo to you Scopely (Computer turn off sarcasm mode)

[kind slate]

i only get 24 uncommons for an ops 39 faction hunt. its no longer worth the effort

[molten hare]

Thank you Scopely for keeping the Thanksgiving events light! Please keep it up for Christmas and future holidays!

[royal widget]

Should have been in a gift box. In fact, I got it twice. Once at level 29, and again when I turned 30 the next day.

[royal widget]

Must be nice to not need tokens or recruits or oxp anymore.

[crimson locust]

Not worth it? Faction credits, officer xp, recruit tokens not worth it?

[long lintel]

Could y’all update the rewards for these between-battle pass-events, please? CoW takes three hits to complete and pays out poorly. A few recruit tokens for officers most don’t need. It used to be popular when Zhou mattered, but he doesn’t now. Swap the officers in the rewards for ones people actually want, or add some RSS or mats. Do something. CoW is basically just a big let down day now.

[jovial wagon]

Add new officers please, this event's rewards should be updated

[halcyon turtle]

Can we please get some clarity from the Devs about what the trigger is for Military Supremacy because realistically right now no one knows and it's very random.

[torn estuary]

Somebody’s showing off their ultra-wide monitor setup.

[torn estuary]

If I were to guess, it would be the ability to build or upgrade the included ships up until a specific level (39?). But that might make too much sense for Scopley logic.

[halcyon turtle]

There's no real rhyme or reason to it. That's simply not accurate in some cases. The previously given explanation was "Military Supremacy is activated when the game believes you are 'weak' for your level" However, when guys with a T6 Enterprise are getting it at OPS35 it doesn't make sense

or me getting it at OPS33 with a T4 Gladius and a Maxed Saladin as well as a T6 Centurion

[raw phoenix]

Here is my feedback on the quite stale rewards for the current Apex event: Hire some QA people. I seriously don’t know how this junk makes it to live ops again, and again, and again…with nobody catching really obvious issues

Now off to fix 1/16th of my hull with these amazing rewards

[vast shoal]

I have to ask... Why arent all officers of factions... in the faction group for recruiting? Why haven't the factions been updated to include all new officers?

Why have uncommon faction Officers in the premium recruit category?

[royal widget]

Because it's a step below ultra, providing mostly green and blue officers. Then ultra provides blue and purple.

[dark topaz]

Please give us more eclipse armadas. this event is rediculious boring. you could give points for every minute searching armadas 🤣

[trim vigil]

Agree...the respawn rate is so terrible at times there are no eclipse armadas for five to six minutes and then you get one for a dozen alliances to fight for.

[elder herald]

I think we can all agree on the respawn issue. How are we this far into the game and still having to scavenge just to play the game. It's infuriating enough that I want to quit. Who has time to sit around waiting for something to spawn? Then having to wait and wonder which one of the 2-4 alliances that started an armada on it will actually win the toss to start an attack? It's utterly broken.

THERE IS NOTHING ENTERTAINING ABOUT NOT BEING ABLE TO PLAY THE GAME SCOPELY. It certainly doesn't make us want to spend more money. Fix it.

[dark topaz]

thats true this is so stupid. when we get the starting token easy like eclipse by buying in the shop the don‘t give us armadas to spend it at events. normal armadas the other way round. thats the most stupid event i ever seen in a game sorry to say. would like to know the toughts behind scopley have for not changing this event to a playable event for players who don‘t want to sit the whole night wenn it calms down a little bit

[elder herald]

I wish it was like the Borg Cube armada events. There are plenty of targets due to multiple systems being well stocked and the respawn is much quicker.

[dark topaz]

yes this is the most fouling of the player. borg armadas spawn as hell but no one needs them because borg events are so rare.

[elder herald]

This feels like a game designed to mimic finding a parking spot at the mall on black Friday.

https://tenor.com/view/tv-land-king-of-queens-parking-like-a-boss-last-spot-gif-10031435

[silk cipher]

No. Because if that was like the game, you would both now sit in the spot for 5 minutes waiting to see who “really” has it.

[elder herald]

It was only meant as a joke my friend. Not an exact analogy. 😉

[outer wigeon]

I think we need a lot more exchange armadas or armada zones at this point

[pastel tusk]

How about a 2nd or more refinery to provide enoungh materials to run several extra queues. Im sure there are even more building and research queues in the pipeline!

[regal oxide]

Orrrrr, just make the one we already have……..work good!! 👀

[pastel tusk]

That works if they dont keep hobbling it by switching improvements on for 2 days and then off for 3-4months!

[left marlin]

C’mon Scopely! Where’s the Schedule of Events?! We know that it’s already set. Why can’t you just push it to our News Channels at the same time as the patch notes? Being able to plan ahead is such an important part of efficient progression in this game.

[iron python]

We usually don't get the calendar until later on release day.

Once we have it, one of the Mods will make sure it gets posted.

[left marlin]

I understand that but my question then is why won’t Scopely put it in your hands earlier? How hard can it be? I don’t see any harm it could cause, and a lot of us harder core players would appreciate being able to prepare for the first day’s Events at least. Especially since the first day is usually very busy/laggy. Also, I think putting out the schedule earlier would count as a win that they could put in the ‘improving communications’ column

[iron python]

No. Unfortunately we only get it around the time you guys get it.

We've asked before to get the info earlier.... but I think Scopely prefers "day of".

[left marlin]

Wish they would tell us why the ‘day of’ then. Cause all it does is just add more unnecessary aggravation to their players, even if it’s a small amount

[thin salmon]

????

[uneven relic]

what about it??

[iron python]

FYI: The Heroic BP Overflow event was incorrectly scheduled for 1 day instead of 20 days. The team can't extend events once live, so they have rescheduled. Later this week they will get the points corrected for players who scored early into the prior event.

[topaz lynx]

After maintenance my game is laggy and crashes after 5-10mins online.

[sterile tundra]

OK, so, dumb question, where can I find the "Loyalty Menu" to claim my mission loyalty points?

I'm in Loyalties Part 3 and 2/3 mission done

[torn plinth]

Big territory event and armada assault on Christmas eve and over the holidays? Give people some time to relax please... 😦

[cold oar]

Y'all should probably make sure your BIG events pay players for the effort. This is the upteenth 7+ day event timer that can't even award players enough to rationalize the work. I haven't seen a 7d ALB event that is worth more than what the refineries give us daily.

I'll get more steel Trit and dil through my frank refinery than any ALB offered. My Vidar refinery gives more credits than ALB give. Even my 4* refinery will pay out more uncommon than the ALB will award.

But "we're disappointed with the lack of engagement in our alliance/territory events".

I wonder why?🤔

[vagrant topaz]

no addet the syndicate exp , its every time 1 . but i have make all the quest (5stk.)

[fresh frost]

I did the same, the number on the ui is actually your level/tier with the syndicate, to see xp to next level you need to click into the screen for it

[cosmic slate]

Yep, I thought the same thing. The TC ALB and overall TC events suck. The effort is just not worth the nominal payout. The top alliance on our server is poised to win this thing while most of us just lay down and let them just have the TC space. I've got better things to do in the month of December.

[haughty birch]

Couldn't apply a Mayflower skin, or something?

[willow parcel]

170 server. Many players were not credited with points in Turf Wars ALB after completing Turf Wars SMS

[civic gorge]

I'd really love to sit in on a meeting at Scopely when decision making takes place. "Ok, let's finally give the players officer presets to make the game more enjoyable. But let's not give it to them straight away. Let's put it behind an XP wall so big it will take them months to make full use of it."

[tight pine]

Let’s turn it around: I would like to be in a meeting on your work with the context: here is something you can do to help to motivate everybody. It takes 2 weeks of work but you are not getting paid for it. Sounds awesome right?

[civic gorge]

If it helps everyone, you can have two weeks of my time. But that's probably just me 😉

Putting it behind an XP wall that is unlocked for free is a weird decision in my opinion and I'd love to learn the reasoning behind such decision making.

[tight pine]

Getting the money from those that are impatient. Pretty obvious reason imho.

And syndicate is completely f2p. It just takes a lot of time.

[balmy totem]

First up I'd just like to say thank you for some of the changes made to Turf Wars from the last run of the event - #💬-events-feedback message. Having it run Tuesday to Tuesday is great and I like there is a server milestone as well. It's still not without some problems but my main feedback has got to be...

It is absolutely insane that the event is currently planned to get a second run over the Christmas period, not least Christmas Day itself! If Christmas Day fell on a Tuesday I could maybe, maybe, understand, but it's on a Saturday meaning some alliances and players may feel pressured to be on their phone potentially for hours on Christmas Day to defend their alliance and allies T3s. Please can this be changed?

[harsh mason]

This event is not showing for me (Level 33):

[deep halo]

Pls next time before take over event reset all teritory

[supple bolt]

Turf wars
did they give an explain why it doesn't give points towards alliance progress?

[outer brook]

@iron python Maybe think about adding a severe penalty for dropping territories to the next tc event.

[iron python]

Out of curiosity, why?

[outer brook]

Because like this folks don't go for contested takeovers. They just drop and retake.

[proper stream]

But you have to drop to take any territories... not just retake your own

[outer brook]

How about something like this:

• drop a territory: -10k
• take an unowned territory: +10k
• defend a territory: +10k
• take a foreign owned territory: +30k
  Plus some different numbers for different tiers. That might shake things up.

[supple bolt]

similar to Latinium event? somebody stole your latinium so your points go down 🤔

[outer brook]

Also with the current event setup many just join and don't fight. All it does is reduce the amount of stored alliance territory resources.

[supple bolt]

you don't need to join 😐

[lethal tulip]

Alliances should have a timer if they drop a territory.

[flint crow]

Seriously, just hit level 29 and for Turf Wars SMS how i should score points 225k?

• Sarcophagus Build/Tier-up: Not available to me (level 30+)
• Meridian Build/Tier-up: Not available to me since i was not playing when the battle pass gave it for free
• Discovery Build/Tier-up: Not available to me since i was not playing when the battle pass gave it for free
• Spend Iso-Resin : Not possible without Meridian as you dont get it via Refinery
• Spend Tetryons : I have not stashed 1000 units to cloak, limit is far lower!!!

I dont even think i can unlock the summoning even with level 29, so how should i be able to fiish that event?

[junior flicker]

Agree. Am at lvl 38. Already build the meridian, sarco and disco
Can't tier up Meridian because of the warp interlock you get at lvl 39. Not enough UNC G3 for tiering up disco and sarco ....
Spending tetryons and iso raisin.. not nearly enough available
Could just get halfway the event. No options to finish it

[flint crow]

On top ... my main account is level 41 and the event rewards for Cosmic Cleanup suddently stopped offering me the Sarcophagus at 64/80 blueprints somewhere when i jumped from 39 to 41. I could have build an 2nd long time ago, instead i am not sitting on an mountain of those Galaxy tokens and no real offer to spend them on.....

[jolly lagoon]

Who the hell thinks up such tasks? The Turf Wars SMS is impossible to accomplish in 24 hours. Seriously Scopley?

[wooden cloak]

be clever have sarco t1 and second meridiat t1 😄

[jolly lagoon]

you mean, be generous and spend some money in the shop ... the greed of the developers makes me sick

[devout trail]

I can't complete the expand SMS at all today because

1. already have disco and summoning
2. already have meridian refit
3. already maxed out my resin based research for my level
4. am weeks away from having enough sarco BPs to build/unlock
5. Level locked for teiring meridian any further, and disco I'm short 140 spore components

This is stupid. @tropic ibex

[stark wave]

@devout trail me too, i hope this is a bug. did contact support

[devout trail]

sent in a ticket too but i don't hold out any hope.

[errant latch]

Chances are you will either get a response in a few hours or tomorrow

[devout trail]

yeah, "lol sorry, level up bro"

[errant latch]

When I saw that event I was so confused on what to do,then I did an iso research an boom completed,but overall that event is really dumb because as you said you already have a disco an summoning, meridian refit and you are level locked with it and you don't have a sarco

[devout trail]

I just requested them to add 1000 tetryons to my account so I can grind it out via cloak kills, lets see what happens.

[fossil prairie]

well, in my case, i dont have any of those ships, I cant do any of the research as i am only R&D 24. So the turf war SMS is something I cannot even get points on much less complete without buying one of those ships since I havent been playing long enough to get them through events.

[jovial wagon]

No more such events, thanks!

[hot raptor]

Can someone explain

[junior pond]

There was a problem with scoring at the start. The Devs have been on a few times saying that a fix was coming down the road for those that missed points.

[hot raptor]

Ahh ok THX for the info

[olive cape]

Any event that requires a purchase from a majority of players is going to be 💩. Day 2 of your new arc and new faction and this is what we wake up to. 😂 Cmon Scopely, the cash grabs are always there, but not usually this blatant. Shameful.

I’m also not spending $70 on a ship that was free for everyone a few months before I started playing your game. Are you going to start charging people for the Vahklas and Kumari soon too?

[strong crest]

not getting points on territory research for the event

[vivid ingot]

I was able to complete this SMS by tiering up the Meridian once (1->2) and the Sarco once (5->6). Sarco upgrade was a bit expensive on uncommon materials but nothing to worry about. No spending needed 👍

[fresh frost]

Needs to be resin, not emulsion... Its the "iso charged" quartet

[strong crest]

well then they make it impossible for us to complete this event..

[compact crane]

Turf war sms is all but impossible for most players.

[strong crest]

yep it is

even if you buy the refit it wouldnt get you to finish it

[sharp thistle]

Should have just renamed this event Cash Grab not Turf War

[tacit pine]

Maxed Sarco, Disco and 2 Meridians, research already maxed and now with cloak dailies, no way near the 750 tetryons to complete event.. Poorly thought out event especially with it contributing to alliance points. Only way to complete is by purchasing something I dont need...Way to go.

[manic estuary]

Who in the world wrote the directions for IMS? lol

[strong crest]

and i have members that cant do anything with their ships.. i hope they are fixing that

[jaunty jay]

Dont give them the idea! 😂

[vapid meteor]

So more bad planning with territory event. The top of my servers leaderboard is an alliance with less than 10 people who own no territory. All they do is simply pay the fee to join a takeover and collect the points. They don’t need to show up, and can do it for every takeover

The rest are doing the same as last time, dropping and fighting for the territory again. Complete joke

[shell drum]

One of the best things about the game are the territory battles. So this event promotes that and I am all for the concept. But Scopley, you need to put some time and energy into figuring out the lag when a territory battle is going. Just got out of one with 6 teams contesting a territory. Could be supper fun but the lag was so bad, even pixilation started to occur. Ruins the whole chance you have of gaining any type of momentum from the concept. Sad.sad.sad.

[compact crane]

6 teams actually battling for a territory sounds fun. But what actually happens is 6 or more teams battling 1 team. Which is not fun.

[jaunty jay]

This one is my favorite 😂

3 players in top 10 🤣

https://tenor.com/view/whack-a-mole-cute-cat-funny-gif-14926253

Scopely trying to figure out how to make TC fun and players finding the loopholes.

[mint cobalt]

Ya. The ones at the top of the leaderboard not only have no territory, but also aren’t fighting at all. Lmao 🤣

[junior pond]

We're 4 on our leaderboard from just starting the takeovers. It's great.

[lunar light]

there shouldnt be points awarded for just starting an attack on a territory. The points should be awarded for winning. If you want to award participation points then they should somehow be related to the scores. It's not right for alliances with no territory to be able to come in and win the event simply by clicking the Join Takeover button.

[junior pond]

And that is exactly how these events have been run in the past. And the top few alliances on a large server push everyone else out and 'win' but simply having all the largest players on the server. This time Scopely tried something different. It's certainly not perfect, but it's better than just handing the event to the whales like has been done every other time. This is the first time the other 85%+ of people have a chance to at least compete. And those big alliances are free to compete equally. All they have to do is drop their territory but they don't want to do that. But it's their choice not to do that.

[lunar light]

But it's not a competition when all they do is join the event and not even bother to fight anything. It's a welfare event basically for the alliances who cant compete or choose not to compete in events. It's like doing away with leaderboard events and letting everyone place first regardless of the effort that they put in. It's a dumb event.

the other events arent much better. Anyone who has maxed their sarcophagus, discovery or meridian is going to have a tough time. Because they cant score points unless they have some research they can do. There isnt anyway to complete those events with tetryons alone.

[junior pond]

It is a competition. You have to have an active alliance, and be planning and watching events and takeovers, and have have you whole leadership team involved. It may not be your version of because people are not blowing up ships, but don't mistake it for being non-competitive. We have almost 30 alliances actively competing here for top placement.

[lunar light]

Nonsense Tribbles. There is an alliance of 3 sitting in 4th place on my server just because they are clicking join.

[junior pond]

That is on your server. Not all servers are close to being equal. And good on them for being more involved then every other larger alliance below them.

I understand what you are saying, don't get me wrong. I just don't agree that this is somehow bad because it's different this time.

[lunar light]

its not a matter of involvement though. the big alliances with territory are unable to compete unless they decided to drop all territory and join the masses with no territory. which is just dumb.

[junior pond]

And in the past, they could just sit in their territory where the owner has a huge advantage in scoring and run the leaderboards. This at least forces them to make a choice to be competitive. Anything that will level the playing field in territories is a win for me. I do agree with you that this is not the end state way to go, but leaving it the way it was certainly was not either for the majority of players.

Territory has been a mess since early on and they need to look at how to fix it as a whole, including these type of events.

[lunar light]

they want to level the playing feild then just give everyone instant ops 50 and some free g4 ships that are upgraded. level playing feild regardless of effort that players have put forth

[royal widget]

Is this a freaking joke? You have an event score for spending iso resin, but the new researches all use iso emulsion!

[simple ice]

Good work on the turf wars sms - expand event scopely! Set an event with such specific scoring requirements that 90% of players can’t complete! What idiots are coming up with these events?

[jolly lagoon]

I think it was intended that the new research and the turf wars sms should use the same iso stuff... but, as so often, they didn't tell the trained ape writing the code for them 🤣

[vapid meteor]

Not true at all. It takes one member of the alliance to click “join takeover”. There is no requirement for a single ship to even be present in the takeover.

The alliance in top place in our leaderboard, has not shown up to a single one.

A spectator is in top place, that’s not a competition

Suggestion:

announce a time that all territories will be reset, all alliances kicked out. Give the server 2 weeks to recapture territories. Force active participation to earn points, and force a bit of shake up in territory space to dislodge some of the whales, even temporarily

[umbral saddle]

Needs to be a way to stop the top alliances just locking down territory permanently. They all show to each other’s defences b making it impossible for even a very active mid alliance to even come close to capturing one. Allows their alliances to be less active and still win. How about random takeover timers between 3 and 10 days at any time of day.

[queen perch]

Hello Scoply,
Please have a look on Jelly event. In the auction only the first and the second place will get Jelly BP. Looking on my server this means you have to get 4m or more points (Spending 40k uncommon G3 material) to have a chance.
As you can imagine saving this amount of ress takes much time. And the end there is a high risk that you do not get a single BP. This creates frustration.

Please have a look on the auction and adjust the rewards. At least the first 20 places should get blueprints (even if it just 1bp…)

[woven jolt]

On a side note, when is our 3rd anniversary event coming?

[junior pond]

It's funny how now that someone who is not in the pre-ordained top slots is winning an event on some servers, how so many people are suddenly saying it's not fair or it's not a competition because these groups aren't allowed to win. That alone should be an indication that something was very wrong with territory in the first place and changes needed to be made. Your suggestion to kick everyone is certainly one, but on many servers, as was discussed regularly in the territory channel here before it was just removed, large groups have formed to keep everyone else out. Just booting them would change nothing about that because the same overpowered coalitions would just win the event again every time. Some suggestions here have potential to have a better structured event and should be looked at by scopely. A negative score for dropping a territory seems to have promise forcing a choice by existing owners and could be one path. Restricting territory battles to only allow those that pay the entry fee for takeover so that the coalitions cannot just sweep in and kill everyone else is another. Regardless, every alliance on a server has an equal chance to be in that #1 slot and those big enough to win territories CAN get more points then them. If they choose not to and have let a spectator win, it's on them.

[compact crane]

The problem with territory is it’s stale. The cause is coalitions have eliminated any chance of a competitive environment where alliances feel they have a fair shake. These takeover events will fail to stimulate territory activity after events end till the underlying problem is fixed. Only those who joined the takeover can enter system and an 8 day cool down on re-joining an alliance.

[main holly]

It cracks me up reading of the ‘Terrible’ plight of the Whale Alliances not doing well in ONE particular Event. How ‘spoiled’ are you guys. One Event where Mid to Low range Alliances that are active actually have a chance to get on the board. I applaud Scopely for thinking outside the box on this one. You think they don’t see what has happened to TC? It’s nothing more than a Whalefest.. Thank you for allowing smaller Alliances an actual Chance to score. Rest assured, Whales, that your place on your particular Server is safe. Nice to see an Event where Everyone gets to Play…

[nimble dragon]

They really need to restrict an active takeover to the alliances competing for the territory. Lock out all others from that territory during active takeover.

[unkempt prawn]

Ironically Turf Wars disadvantages the alliances that have just enough political sway to have a single territory, as they can only ever compete in one defense and ~3 nearby offenses without dropping their territory. The Whale alliances already have 5 and thus more built in defenses and more territory reach... they'll do fine. The territory-less on my server are joining every single 1* and are likely to win because of it. It's interesting.

The SMS - Expand... I'm so glad the iso resin was included as a way to complete it, as building or tiering up the specialty ships wasn't in the cards.

[vagrant topaz]

how is this possible??

how can GOAT join a takeover without holding an own 1* territory???

new rules for event?

goat had burran and comst also, but lost burran 2h before and dropped comst right before brijac takeover.

but still, they actually own a 3* and a 2* territory. barasa and bolari.

they shouldn’t be able to join a takeover in another 2* territory

[fresh frost]

You've never required a 1* territory, just a contiguous warp trail from territory you hold

The only time you need to go for a 1* first is if you do not already hold territory

The whole "You must have a 1* to take anything else" is just a weird STFC urban legend

[vagrant topaz]

in the past, a 1* territory was definitely needed

[fresh frost]

Not in the last six months at least

Maybe just after TC launched, maybe?

Every instance of it being a "problem" that I've come across on our server has been because someone made an assumption and dropped their 2* system before trying to take the 1 *

[eternal steppe]

No "Si Vis Pacem" event today? its on the schedule...

[iron python]

Ops is checking

Stand by

[tall island]

yup waiting for para bellum

[main iris]

The Turf Wars - Expand event was a very unfair event. There was no way for me (and many other players like me) to be able to complete this event, because I can't meet the event requirements without the Discovery, the Meridian, and/or the Sarcophagus Ship; and I could not spend iso-resin, or tetryons, for the event, either, because I can't acquire iso-resin without the Meridian, and I can't yet unlock any ships that have the cloaking refit. That is very unfair gameplay for the Turf Wars - Expand event, especially since there's no free method of quickly getting around those obstacles regarding meeting that event's requirements. I'm not made of money, so I shouldn't have to spend money in order to be able to quickly meet the event requirements. And I'm pretty certain that I am not the only player who has a complaint about the unfairness of the Turf Wars - Expand event.

[frank inlet]

as far as i know there are no rules against mining ISO with envoy, horizon or botany Bay. also this event states ISO brought home so you can look for players opc and bring that back to station. Hope this helped

[fresh frost]

Expand was yesterday, today is ISO mining...

[deep halo]

Exploit SLB. 41 and 49 In same bracket....

[main iris]

Your talking about a different event than I am.

[devout trail]

lol, I got a reply to my ticket about being unable to score in the 'expand' event yesterday, the response was literally "We're sorry you feel that way, i've sent your ticket on to the team to serve as feedback for the event, thanks!" and they closed it.

[high wharf]

I have a few ideas for how origin sector can be improved especially if we're going to have events there.

1. Cool down period so alliances can't just drop the territory, then reclaim it in 5 minutes when the takeover begins. The top coalitions have a monopoly so they can remain unchallenged. They "withdraw" from the territory only to reclaim it for extra points. If this event is supposed to encourage movement, then there needs to be a cool down period, much like we have to avoid alliance hopping. If it takes 8 hr for me to leave and rejoin my alliance, one week cool down after dropping a territory seems fair.

2. Personally, origin sector needs to be bigger. Alliances can easily lock in all particles if they arrange themselves just right. I know of 4 alliances on our server who have done this, hence the agreement. 3* systems should have been made three furthest in from the border while 1systems exist as the borderlands. Make the alliances choose which 2 they want of particles if they want a 3 territory. Granted, that's a hard bargain since you've already introduced it, so this is why I'd offer a compromise.
   Second origin sector in deep space (39+ territory). Alliances can get more g4 mining space, larger and higher level alliances can get better particle refinements, and you force alliances to choose between regular and deep origin sectors. This way, 20-38 can compete in the og area, 39+ can compete in the new area for better G4 materials space.

[brazen chasm]

We might need the whole arc to get through this

[woven jolt]

If multiple alliances contest a single zone they all score points for joining the TC. At minimum you need roughly half the zones to be contested by 1 attacker and 1 defender to make the max points. It’s not hard if alliances choose to duke it out.

[brazen chasm]

We only have 4 alliances in TC

[rough ravine]

Lol, Damn! We have at least 20 that actively participate in TC. We are one of the smaller so generally only hold territories for short amount of time. Pretty much all of our alliances rank 15 and up are almost full. We are rank 16. They made us merge with another server when we already had 10 active alliances. Now there are never any empty material nodes and at least 5 active alliances are out in the cold on TC. I can't even imagine only having 4 alliances that participate in TC.

[junior pond]

Newer servers are pretty light with folks. Makes some of these events very hard for them.

[harsh mason]

@iron python do you have any feedback on this issue? wrong description or bug? thanks.

[stone quarry]

Alpha Gamma and Delta tokens why can't we trade or cash in? Had these for almost 3 years now lol

[zealous kayak]

What kind of rubbish is that with the officer EPs that don't count ...

[light canyon]

I understand some events will never come back. This sucks since that leaves players with event tokens that they can’t get rid of. If your going to remove events then you need to convert peoples event tokens and tickets that have become useless.

[old mist]

This territory stuff and event sucks

[modern urchin]

Yeah they know people hate the mechanic so try to force people to engage with a wet turd

[old mist]

Well when there is 1 alliance that dictates what happens when they spent thousands of dollars

[strange patio]

On my server - currently second place in the event is being held by an alliance ranked 28th in power - has never owned a territory & still doesn’t but has thrown 16 pins with a minimum of scoring points recorded (1 or 2 ships, probably cloaked).
If the intent of the event was to promote the moving of alliances around the board - Scopley did a great job. Alliances abandoning territories to just throw pins to accumulate points.

[old mist]

Well the alliance on my server 1 player has 150m power ships that person can dam near take out alliance on there own

[strange patio]

And limiting alliances to only 4 or 3 territories…….makes no sense. My alliance (84 members) was involved with another alliance (87 members) over a territory and lag was terrible. Maybe if the lag was fixed, more alliances would want to move more often.

Has nothing to do with how many territories an alliance owns.

[old mist]

Maybe have it set up that more evenly matched alliance can fight over territory instead of 90 member alliance destroys 60 player alliance

Also keep top players from jumping to help another alliance win and go back the next day later

[woven jolt]

Gonna ask again, since it wasn’t addressed: when are we going to get our 3 year anniversary event? Last year’s event started on Dec 2.

[modern urchin]

Or on our server a 6 alliance strong coalition flooding the system with 300+ players so you can't even enter the system let alone mount a chalange due to the lag, heck the alliance defending doesn't even kill your ships as they have a bunch of lap dog's to do their budding

[old mist]

Same here I would like then to move all lvl 48 to 59 out merge them into one server

[idle epoch]

Can we please forget about turf wars? This is the dumbest event ever. No, its not creating commotion in origin space, rewards are not worth dropping territory and going endlessly for another ones and its just so frustrating to manage when you have 10 small alliances just joining your t1 and they score way higher than you on leaderboard doing nothing

[strange patio]

The problem is that if the players do not complain about the event, Scopley will keep bringing it back. They need to fix the issues with the territories and the first issue is lag whenever there are too many ships in a system - and that’s no fun for anyone.

[brazen chasm]

I think I'd they can fix the lag and increase the size, the number of systems, and make it more diverse that would be good. There has to be incentive to move.

For many servers those milestones are too high and I don't think we will reach the first one in ours. With other events they had different milestones depending on the activity. That was good.

The rewards are fantastic.

I like it and it's something new, just needs a little tweaking maybe.

[vapid meteor]

What’s with this new symbol on most of the dalies? None of them are rewarding anything new or extra

[sharp thistle]

Once you get high enough with Orion syndicate, you'll get boost to rewards

[modern urchin]

Yeah they are only active at higher orion levels which at 150 points oer day will take approximately 10 years to max out

[dense zenith]

Hello, please add Lorca to Discovery Recruit Special

[shut geode]

What bloody idea is this. How to hell you wanna do that in one day!!! Scopley..

[lucid idol]

lol is this bp event a joke?

[shut geode]

<@&509691205798592532> please tell us how to complete the BP event today, all away missions takes 4 hours /3 days .. the uncommon only gives 100 points, for that you need 20 or more missions, that is impossible in that timeframe

[shrewd herald]

scoring doesnt work at all

[signal narwhal]

Complete trash bp event and should not have been allowed to begin with

[shrewd herald]

ah no. now its working, but all those who rushed their missions in the first half hour didnt get any points

[vale lantern]

This BP event is stupid

What is wrong with you scopely

It's not even a fair event the point system is random and I could get not one single rare or epic event and be forced to spend in order to complete Something I already spent on to get access to.

[neon valve]

What the HELL Scopely?! Giving us a battlepass event barely anyone can complete?! Away Teams are a long way from being able to be used effectively in ANY event never mind a battlepass completion event! Battlepass is supposed to be a readily easy event to complete. NOT this load of horseshit that you gave us! WTF! WTF!!!

[vale lantern]

<@&509691205798592532> yeah time to do your job. This bp event is a bunch of 💩

[signal narwhal]

This event is a complete joke great job scopely

[shut geode]

Scopley way to annoying people for the weekend I think

Really works perfectly

[polar token]

We've discussed this with devs and they are working on the assumption that players will need to use speed ups that they have saved. However they have had feedback that this event is not finding favour 🖖

[shut geode]

Say next time month before save up speed ups 🐱

[polar token]

Also, by the by, we aren't employed by scopely. This is a voluntary gig to help our fellow players.

[polar token]

Again, we're not scopely employees. We can pass feedback on, but that's the extent of it.

[shut geode]

I know.. but scopley do something what is not working is not fun

[feral sun]

Paywall to complete Battle Pass events… who comes up with these ideas? Way to kill sales of the Elite Battle Pass, I won’t be purchasing them anymore.

[manic estuary]

What's the regen time on origin armadas these days?

[neon spoke]

working on the assumption we need speed ups for AT pass, garbage

that's my feedback, I think the AT speed up accumulation is lacking compared to the rest

Hoover level!

[deep halo]

Away team in battlepass,with another away team event next day in calendar. At refresh, all my away missions are 1 day, 2 days or 3 days. Very unfair scopely. First battlepass event i can't finish i story of battlepass. Not hold you breathe waiting me buy a pack for At speed ups.

[manic estuary]

all spending type ms events suck

[feral sun]

They have to assume we have ZERO of any resource needed to compete an event and go from there… this AT event is lazy at best and a bait and switch money grab at worst. Sell us an Elite Battle Pass and then make it impossible to complete without purchasing AT speed ups (which happen to be on sale). What a joke!

[neon spoke]

Thanks for dealing with our complains Mods, I'd open a ticket but it would take 4 days to get a response, appreciate all your work

[turbid stratus]

Better yet get a Critical success on a rare, and the system doesn't score it.

[neon spoke]

I'm sure my 95% rare will fail after using what boosts I had

I've seen 100% fail, wonder if they fixed that

[sharp wharf]

Please fix the territory armada respawn rates

[faint torrent]

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Too low, and low level players are getting smashed and frustrated by the high-level disco ships.

and the lower/smaller territories only get one every whatever the super long respawn timer is.

that's one armada station.

[lusty root]

It's the "sacrifice your Disco event" for the lower players ... What a joke

[faint torrent]

100%.

[lucid idol]

Guys please stop complaining about an event you can complete in 30 deaths with very little repair cost, there are more pressing matters at hand 😂

[shut geode]

Discovery war is fun on my server low players vs low players and high vis high

Zero problems

And great rewards

[neon spoke]

You assume everyone has a discovery

maybe stop assuming people have the same resources as you

[shut geode]

I don't

[neon spoke]

I'm talking to Jonnayy

I think the away team issue is worse though

[shut geode]

BP event today is painful in your butt.. TC event and discovery war are great and fun on my server lots of fights

[alpine patio]

BP event is awful. You need speedups to complete it. To top that off the BP awards are tickets for the upcoming events.

[sick zenith]

Armadas target respawn rate is horrible for the Origin event…

[faint torrent]

congratulations on your server being able to have fun with it. mine can't. the lvl 40s are going around killing the level 25s.

[fossil plank]

I have nothing new to add. BP event and disco event suck donkey balls

[sick zenith]

We’ve got 3 so far in 5 territories: that’s it!!!

[rancid hatch]

Turf Wars-Exterminate is pretty much impossible to do if you do not have a Discovery and the territory Armadas seem to all emptied out and take forever to respawn.

[faint torrent]

there's also that^

[polar bobcat]

Same on my server. Except it's level 51s hitting 26s. So redonkulous

[faint torrent]

and that's the real problem. that's not fun. dying isn't the issue, dying 40 times when you have no chance is as is the alternative relief option which involves defeating a target that has a stupid respawn timer. you're doing good if you can find the one that does spawn, because you then have to be able to join it. these events should be fun, not be a slog.

[shell drum]

With our server, the armadas in territory are not respawning. Good job Scopley.
