Post reply when it comes. See you in a couple days

[fresh frost]

I'm getting this... come hell or high water... just to ram in peoples faces 😂

[vagrant topaz]

I'm gonna try for it too

Top one is rare. Probably from the next event like the one we just had

[fresh frost]

https://tenor.com/view/lower-decks-star-trek-the-dog-dog-gif-18608763

kinda want "The Dog"

[deft wren]

Want this guy

[dire fjord]

And I would love to see him all over my alliance! 😍

[supple coyote]

limit officer xp spend daily event not scoring

Battlepass surveyor event not scoring either

[regal oxide]

Events not scoring ……….again!

[edgy bison]

Badgey event is not giving points.

[spark marlin]

Yup, not scoring

[thin bear]

Events not giving points?

I'm shocked.

https://imgflip.com/i/6brfgh

[rain spear]

nope

[thin bear]

I knew that two days in a row streak to start the arc was looking too good.

[faint turtle]

Server 67 is not getting points for event or dailies

[crude edge]

No points scoring in any events on 133 either

Waste of time doing anything

[violet pulsar]

We're seeing posting latency of at least 20 minutes right now on server 38. Things post, but players can be forgiven for believing they aren't being scored for play.

[scenic flint]

Points are being delayed for the reserch event by a few minutes on server 65. Even longer for the cloaking event, still haven't gotten my points for that. I really should know better than to try any events within the first hour of release.

[violet pulsar]

@old grail, @tropic ibex and co:

What this looks like is that the developers tried to avoid problems with the game UI becoming unresponsive at resets by making all of the event reset work much more asynchronous, but the net effect is just a different kind of unresponsive behaviour because queuing with long delays in control functions is still a failure pattern, players are exercising control but not seeing any effects. This isn't solving the fundamental problem, it's changing how it manifests.

What you need is more execution resources to get the servers through reset workloads within a reasonable time bound. You need to be measuring things in terms of queue stand times if there's any kind of player interaction, being able to score in current events is not a batch job that just needs to get there eventually.

[wanton anvil]

The lag is terrible. Turf wars and Hunter killer events are going to be a disaster….

[scenic flint]

Now all points for all events are not scoring in 65 and haven't been for over 30 minutes

[unreal bobcat]

todays mining event is not scoring

[tranquil carbon]

Yes, mining event is not scoring. It is not a “lag”. I was mining a load earlier and recalled it after reset, and it didn’t score almost 2 hours ago. Then, I thought, maybe it was before reset, and my second load just now didn’t score either. Scopelyid! 🙄 This is on S65.

[torn burrow]

Same on EU138. Mining but not scoring. Thought it might require docking but still no score.

[hollow canyon]

No Killing, No mining, no spend, nor even daily collection is scoring right now

[vagrant topaz]

Server 75 is also experiencing no scoring or a significant delay in scoring points.

[lofty tangle]

Full 200k dvor pull of lat didn't score for the mining event.

[polar bobcat]

Same on server 31

[vagrant topaz]

Does Scopely participate or have their people on these discord servers?

Lovely, now data mining is not scoring. They have done messed this up!

[meager moss]

It didnt score for hour..statted agaon to work but didnt get any of those points during that hour

[fluid gulch]

I didn’t get credit for a research that finished an hour ago

[vagrant topaz]

I have not gotten credit on 2 research projects that also finished about 30 minutes ago. I hope they figure this out because I do not want to run out of time and not get my points and rewards for all that I have done in the past few hours.

[twilit relic]

Current monthly event isn’t updating

[hollow parcel]

This is a joke lvl 41

Tomorrow's Turf wars

[queen kindle]

seems low compared to last couple times, officer seems to be worth a lot

[vagrant topaz]

It said we could mine trit for then bp event but that turned out to be a lie

[tranquil carbon]

Scopely needs to communicate better! If they knew they were going to be updating servers in the background, why couldn’t they at least make an announcement proactively that scoring was going to be a problem. I just received some points for mining, but I can’t tell if that was from my first load or last load. Did I get the points from when the servers were being updated? Scopely: you get an “F” for communication!

[vagrant topaz]

Trit was not working for me but g3 mats do

[proper crescent]

Still missing points on server 131

[fresh frost]

Events have always run async, and have always had differing amounts of lag to scoring... This is not new 😂

[frail bridge]

It's lovely that have an level and and build event but now ships u can get ...

I've been really waiting for the madridian for ever I figured since this was going to be a event to build it that they would give you the bp in the store

[dark pine]

Liking the sms hostile hunts running 2 days, gives more time to complete

[manic estuary]

I did iso for bp many hrs ago , still zero score

[wanton anvil]

Turf wars payouts are insufficient for the amount of effort required. Will not be participating for a pittance

[manic estuary]

So I just grabbed a little 2* ore and it scored already but still nothing for a full load of iso hrs ago

[manic estuary]

3* works also so evidently it's just iso that's broken

[raven vault]

Today's cloaking Event still hasn't scored correctly. After taking a 5hr break, hoping that the points scoring would catch up, it hasn't! I'm still missing more than 32k points from the event. Tetryons are expensive on an Enterprise.

[violet pulsar]

Not my point at all.

[edgy bison]

Still not getting extra cerritos boost points

[wispy crest]

Man alive, just when you think the past arcs are the worst possible, Screwpay comes up with THIS incredible POS excuse for an Arc. Good grief.

[patent gazelle]

This arc is lame.

[toxic wraith]

So turf wars alb going to pay out to ops 39 to 41,. Minimal 3* materials, mats particles and iso.

While 42+ get higher rewards.

Guess they don't realise 39 to 41 bracket refine 4*

And Tbf 7 to 10 days possible event, for rewards that can be refined or collected in about 36hrs., doesn't really inspire engagement.
Coupled with rewards are given individually based on individuals ops lvls, regardless that everyone contributes to
The main event of turf wars.
It's not as if it can be done alone.
Shouldn't rewards be equal to all members of the alliance regardless of ops lvl. And be even rewards.

I. E. Ops 41, top 1st place finishing alliance, 150 of each particle reward.

If don't engage you can earn 100 particles per day.
So
By engaging people lose resources, for 6 to 9 days, then get 1 day reward.

Bet value - 6 days refines and collections of dailys.

Where's the rewards?

[wheat forge]

not a single 4 star material.

that's RIDICULOUS...

2 billion parsteel for a WEEK!? We have had ticketed events that gave out 4 billion a DAY!?

[wheat forge]

and, in regards of adding "hunter killer" parallel to the turf wars event??
can we please rename it officially to the "LAGG wars" it will become??

scopely has MASSIVE ISSUES with lagg on a wide and bright scale of servers. it is known.

in "usual" territory defenses some fights are lasting more then a MINUTE, if not longer, instead of 5 seconds they should last. only one example.

Its scopelys responsibility to either PUMP UP theire infrastructure to a level that can avoid such lagg and make it finally playable for us, the players,

or limit the amount of players that can participate??? a kind of instanced takeover that only allows alliances to enter the territory whilst an active defense that payed the fee to be eligible to contest, could be a part of that solution. just an idea 🤷‍♂️

And WHAT is the reaction of scopely??

to make "hunter killer"!?

that calls every player to EVERY freaking defense to score points!!??

Can this, in any way, shape or form, help with the MAIN ISSUE?? the LAGG???

Its insane!! It's unbelievable how denying and far away from the ingame reality they act sometimes...

FORCE the guys that make the game and events to PLAY the game!!! Put a clause in theire contracts or whatever 😅🙈
If they would have the slightest ingame experience some of the mistakes they made would never be happened 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

[slate wing]

Good morning with turf wars ...start in an hour on servor 15 ...with takeovers and defense do they disregard scheduled date of defense or it same date for scoring ?

[iron python]

The schedule does not change.

[slate wing]

@iron python tyvm

[supple coyote]

completed domination battlepass event yet only got 3 out the 4 milestone points

please fix the stupid lag issue

[nocturne pike]

A lvl50 shoud not get any events points for killing a lvl30 during thr takeover. You need to eithe lock the scoring to only +/- a few levels, or give more points for punching up. Current scoring just makes it a (another) playground for the whales.

[dense cliff]

Turf wars event is terrible. Just excuse for the biggest to come in and wipe everyone out in an area that has no pvp brackets. Invites everyone into every takeover which the lag issues still have not been addressed. Incredibly fun event to send ships out and have game shut down then by time finish logging back on find all ships killed by people 20 ops levels higher.

[delicate fractal]

Turf wars is garbage. A bully event for whales and a waste of resources for everyone else.

[scenic flint]

Is the event right in that you gain 1000 points when losing while supported?

But yeah, any event where you lose points during a TC is garbage

[delicate fractal]

It’s the pts per kill during the event regardless of participation. Having a 170M+ ship run through a system of G3 and G4 ships is not my idea of fun.

[scenic flint]

the Turf war event is trash. It's simply not playable unless you are a whale.

[naive yew]

And whales don’t fight other whales. They feed on shrimp

[scenic flint]

In my server, all the top whales are in the same alliance. Anyone lvl 43+

[strong anchor]

It really seems unfair when Para Bellum scores bonus points only for ships you can’t build at your ops level

[vagrant topaz]

Hi, am I wrong in seeing that these monday there are two different mining leaderobard events at the same time? One for (Concentrate)Latinum and the other for isogen, if I remember past events the latinum one does not give points for isogen and viceversa, so we will end up having to compete on mining two different resources at the same time, these feels wrong to me

[quartz thistle]

Turf Wars. What a garbage event. Thanks Scopely for another event for the whales. Us little players really appreciate you looking after us......

[languid marlin]

Turf Wars = bad. Any ship killed equals points? Yeah.... level 60 walks in and destroys everything. Or in my case, anything 40+ just walks all over me and I don't stand a chance. Why even bother showing up? Yeah, the rewards are nice. Yeah, the brackets are.... "decent".... but, if I have to fight players with g4 ships or maxed g3 epics, I don't stand a chance.

Fail.

[mint cobalt]

While I appreciate the intent in trying to turn Turf Wars into anything but a miserable event, with the alliance being rewarded points by a player destroying another player while in an active TO regardless of whether they have joined or not has ruined the event. I’m not even addressing the concurrent cross server SLB. The whale alliance on my server no longer even needs to move as they can just farm kills from one takeover to the next. Those of us trying to defend territory we have held outside of this event now have to sit there and take a beating, especially if a zone is actually contested, all the while negating any progress we have made on the SLB. All of this is going on while none of the lag issues have been addressed. This is the worst Turf Wars yet. Epic fail on an otherwise great arc.

[naive yew]

👆🏻

[dark horizon]

100% ,... on our server we have all the whales just wiping everyone, this is a BS event - i am assuming its the same on all servers

should have a requirement to have joined the TO to score the points

[ember kelp]

I'm in the 28-30? bracket of the XSLB as I'm Ops29.

So far ONE person, yes only one person currently has a score... With the negative points, I don't see that changing much.

[crisp mirage]

OK, sorry, but this current Turf Wars event is absolutely stupid, and the XSLB is even more stupid. Lets have an event that ends up costing people billions of trit in repairs, and give a couple people maybe a billion Par, and a handful of other stuff, if they're lucky! Yeah! Great idea!

Oh and then lets to a PvP even where there are zero level restrictions so 220M ships can tee off on tons of tiny ships and give them all tons of negative points. Yay for tons of repair bills just to end up getting negative points! Oh and lets make it score in EVERY ACTIVE TC so a few whales can go in and rack up points ROFLstomping a bunch of miners in TCs their alliances are nowhere near able to challenge for.

Scopely just need to stop trying to make PvP events a thing. They completely fail at them. The PvP is so horrendously imbalanced it's a joke. All it does is appease a few whales and totally screw every other player on the server.

[silver briar]

Your servers can’t keep up

Nothing but crashes during tc

[ashen verge]

I've got some events feedback for you Scopely... boring!! 3 months of boring. Why? This is your answer to retaining and attracting new players.

Turf wars... remember all that negative feedback you got about it before.... how it was only fun for whales (and even they hated it).... and how do you demonstrate that you have listened... bring back turf wars😂

Boring

[crisp mirage]

Yeah but Scopely loves it because those whales spent mad money tryin to compete. they don't give a crap about making anything fun. They just want to make things that get Whales to spend cash. That's the reason Turf Wars is back. Makes for lots of fighting, fighting wastes RSS and gets the whale cash flowing.

[hybrid quarry]

Level limits in TC during this event would not be a bad idea.

[ashen verge]

yup 100%... still boring though. Where are the rest of the events? Or is this what ever arc looks like from now on.

Pvp conflict could be fun.... but ops 39s against ops 43 -56, wow, that's awesome fun

[crisp mirage]

I'm fine with less events. Doing 12 different events in a day a few times was kinda ridiculous. But the fewer events need to have quality replace quantity. Not just just mining and garbage with zero thought that are clearly geared to separate people from money, add nothing to any arc story, and have no real value.

[ashen verge]

It just feels like a complete lack of thought has gone into this. Its not about turf wars for me, its just the complete lack of entertainment. Reminds me of how the game was in 2019. But hey, its doesn't matter because they don't read their own discord anyway🤣

[patent gazelle]

Is this arc supposed to he self-deprecating? You make fun of the USS Vengeance, the censored cuss words. If so, it's a fail.
I'm doing the missions and I am hating this arc even more.

[inland goblet]

WTF with Fleet Development event?!
90K points for Defence platform lvl36?!
Are you crazy?!

[hot bluff]

What the frack, Scopely! You nerfed the ticketed events back in Dec/Jan, then after everyone pointed out that it was BS you fixed it and now we are back to it being nerfed? I want my frickin' $100 back on the ticket pack! It's outright fraud to be doing this crap. What is wrong with you?!? 😡

[mild marsh]

Giving PVP points to people that aren't even contesting the territory is rediculous. Talk about catering to the cc warriors/whales. This is the most unbalanced event I have ever seen.

[dense prairie]

Please, for the love of god, stop putting out events with this zero-sum win/loss nonsense. It doesn't encourage people to fight, it encourages them to hide. It has made the event boring. It happens every time there's an event scored like this.

If I might suggest: Win +250, loss -125 and +250 if supported.

[hybrid quarry]

Try 36 going up against 57.

[ashen verge]

🤣

[obtuse wraith]

Turf war went from being “turd war” to whales in a turkey shoot out. I am very disappointed and now on endure the whale abuse for a week. Suggestion:
if alliance is not in TC then pvp should not count, or even better, it should count negatively to the beserking abusers.

[mild marsh]

That's actually the best suggestion I've seen. Negative points to those not contesting would balance this event out quite a bit. Would force people to actually contest territories and stop the whales from just slaughtering everyone at every defense.

[vagrant topaz]

Sounds like defense platform scoring is still bugged

[sour jetty]

Maybe its just my opinion but launching an event tht encourages the following.... 'score points by goin into others territory n destroy their ships' 🤔 Given the current events in the world someone either seriously overlooked things or is thick as ****! This is supposed to be a game, an escapism from the real world. This is very poor taste! 🙈😔🇺🇦

[distant harness]

I dont see much positive in here so, i like the lower decks arc, it even made me go watch the show. What i dont like is that i cant even do the first quest at level 23. I got the first way point, then had to kill a ship that is 700k power with my 186k ship. Way to entice players just to go full stop almost immediately. That was poor planning guys. And 100 bucks for 2 badgey frags and a badgey avatar!?!? Too expensive.

[placid bear]

aside from the rewards being lackluster for Turf Wars compared to the length of the event, I can think of one thing that could be changed with this iteration of Turf Wars.

We have seen it too often in the previous runs of this event where alliances will drop existing territories to be able to join a takeover, win it, then drop it to rinse and repeat. To me, that is kind of exploiting it for points and I can understand from that perspective. I think the devs could incentivize the event by giving more points for defending/retaining your existing territory as well as penalize ones that win one for the points only to drop it before the event is over or immediately after. Say, take away their win points they just gained if they drop the territory before the end of the week long event ends.

[gilded ocean]

How can you nerf defense platform points and not communicate that or adjust the point requirements for ALL gain power events?

[frail bridge]

Yes I would definitely bsay keeping a territory should be worth more thin taking a new

[unreal torrent]

I see simple fix... if you drop territory during event - 150k points. And i thinked about it 15 sec.

[toxic sinew]

Please stop trying to come up with pvp events. Y’all are really, really bad at it.

[vagrant topaz]

I agree with previous comments - This turf war has turned into a "t***" war. Whale alliances have turned into bullies, hitting every TD and every player. One solution is to only allow points when your alliance is in TC. That would force the whale alliances to drop territories to score on the ALB. Scopely, on a scale of 1-5, I give you a 0 on this one. 6 more days of the c***.

[daring cobalt]

Are we going to talk about how they keep nerfing the rewards for the ticketed events?>

or how the event packs in the store have no uncommon or rare mats in them

[gilded ocean]

I know with this nerf and stingy rewards I’m starting to rethink if this game is actually fun anymore. I wasted a ticket on a gain power event I can’t complete unless I blow up points for the mat spent slb. Getting sick of scopelys 💩trying to kill the things that keep me playing.
Anyone who wasted a ticket on the gain power event should get their ticket back. If your gonna nerf the def platforms you MIGHT think you should at least buff the reward points to match the rest of the buildings!!!!

[daring cobalt]

No way! They have a better idea...nerf the rewards again, AND make the power hard to accomplish.😂

I also am thinking about not spending any more money on this companies product (I have spent around $5,000) and quitting altogether as they have people who do not know what they are doing developing this game. If it wasn't for the IP this game would have been dead already.

[swift hull]

Greetings all from server181,

I've got a debatable topic for all.

Turf wars is rewarding PvP.
After a year of mining and grinding to get these epic ships and promoting officers we all have ships to be proud of.
PvP is at an all time low because of.....politics.

We have a server181 roe about territory that says only members partaking in a takeover can hit PvP.

This is the debatable issue.

I've offered my alliance members PvP action to ALL takeovers during turf wars as to compete in SLB and ALB.

Should we follow our own designed ROE or enjoy the scopely designed event and compete for the rewards?

[queen kindle]

There's nothing to debate here, ask your server to take a vote and follow the result

[swift hull]

Event will be over by the time we reach an agreement. Cheers though

[queen kindle]

probably doing something wrong if it takes a week to finalize an up or down vote

[fair canyon]

@queen kindle, if I may..

• ticketed events have been greatly reduced in value, each lost 10 uncommons, a good portion of resources (no more 1 bill tokens and similar), to the point where there is no reason to spend a ticket on any of these anymore. Why? They've said multiple times they are going to be steadily increasing event rewards instead of putting resources into regular stuff like refinery.

• all of ticketed events were given epic officer shard which has incredibly low value (esp. these meh bellow deck officers) compared to the resource payouts, and that singular shard does not compare to the amount of resources lost, not even closely.

I've talked to others in my ally/other allies, we've all agreed not to be spending any tickets on this arcs events as they are simply not worth it. Is there a reason scopely is gutting the game so harshly, other then the regular greed?

[queen kindle]

Absolute value has always varied across months, and if you think they're decreasing in value then they're worth the most today and "saving for later" is a bad move. If you want compare this, then gather maybe 6m of data and let's see how ticketed events look.

Subjective value cannot be gauged by your experience since you only have a limited set of data, and are biased in some way toward LD officers. Whether the tickets are worth it or not in this sense, depends on how much the population at large values them as officers and for the IP. We'll get a taste of the sentiment at the first auction, and judgment before then is premature.

[fair canyon]

An interesting view on the current situation. Will keep it in mind 👍. Won't solve any of the issues of my players not willing to spend a ticket for such rewards, but hey.

[obtuse wraith]

Thanks, another idea to stop whales bullying everyone in pvp event is to multiply the scoring relative to the ops difference between the attacker and defender. For example:

(ops relative to the attacker), (Multiplier to kill score in %)

5, 300
5, 250
4, 200
3, 175
2, 125
from -1 to +1 100%
-2, 90%
-3, 75%
-4, 50%
-5, 25%
-5 to -8 10%
-8 or lower 0%

So if if you hit up you earn more, if you hit down you earn less or even nothing if really hit deep down. Number above just to ilustrate the concept.

[obtuse wraith]

Actually I realised now this must be similar to the calculation of the EXP gained from killing hostiles. Apply that to PvP events, it as a “soft pvp banding”.

[polar berry]

If only they actually listened to player feedback.

Reading across all the serverboards, this problem with aimlessly hunting lower level players exists on every server.

[simple path]

The PvP portion of the Turf Wars events is absurd considering there's no level restrictions. I'm level 39 and my strongest ship is 4.8M and I had all my points wiped out within one defense by a level 60 with a 280M ship. How is this remotely fair? Maybe some actual thought should go into these events.

[uncut radish]

A cross server leader board that lasts 7 days, has terrible rewards, and promotes whale stomping? Easy opt out:

That'll still read 0 in 6 days lol

[vagrant scaffold]

My thoughts on this iteration of turf wars:

The problem with the last iteration was that a single commodore on their own could win the event by joining their alliance to every T1 without a single shot being fired. The only requirement was refined 1* iso.
This iteration successfully attempts to prevent that by increasing the win/defend points, adding kill bounties and having a tie break in the form of SMS completion points.
Unfortunately, the scoring's out of whack. Whale allis can now win simply by taking a giant turd on the server.

The good thing about the last iteration was that alli power didn't really matter - it drove engagement from smaller allis, allowing them to get some benefit from the origin sector without having to have massive ships. It also forced changes in the map with the big allis dropping & contesting. This iteration has just handed everything back to the whales, and disincentivised zone contests.

Why? Simple. Every TO in this event is going to have the top players killing everyone. With the scoring as it is, whales can outscore the allis participating in the TO just through their bodycount.

Also this basically hands the TO to defenders, as the whales are clearing the CNs so the defenders don't have to - the guys stationed in the zone can just leisurely put their realtas & BBs out with speed crews. Sarcs are useless, and there's now little point in actively contesting a new zone, as you won't be able to score enough points against home advantage because the whales keep sending you home.

Suggestions to fix:

1. Restrict scoring in the XSLB to allis that have joined the TO.
2. Restrict the kill bounty in the ALB to allis that have joined the TO.
3. Reduce the points on the ALB kill bounty or increase the win/defend score. Capturing the zone needs to be more valuable than the kills.
   That's it - problem solved.

The final gripe is the rewards. I get that scopely want to skew rewards towards active participants and stop players who've done nothing getting a big payout simply because they're in a winning alli, and I support that - but the way they've done it here sucks.

The Explore SMS is the right idea, but it should make up for the ludicrous reduction in rewards which it currently doesn't. It should also require participation in a TO, which again - it currently doesn't.

Suggestions to fix:

1. Add scoring for TC points scored by the player - 1 TC point = 1 SMS point
2. Add scoring for PvP wins & losses
3. Restrict the armada dir spend to armada targets in an active TO & add a bounty for winning
4. Remove alliance contributions from scoring
5. Reduce the points to 10 for each help

I think then we'd be pretty much on point.

[uncut radish]

Also, as others have pointed out, put the ticketed rewards back to where they were. Rewards and scoring seem much worse for this arc so far

[elder hill]

Most of us little guys actually used realtas during the tds and had a blast running from the bigger guys🤣

[azure isle]

pvp W/L is fine for ALB scoring make tc more exciting
but pvp SLB should be hull demage scoring rather than simple w/L and break it down to multiple 2-3 days event . At least this way the lower lvl score board wouldn't be so depressing

[burnt cave]

How about just fixing the territory’s period? Make it fair

Whales own it all

[spark cypress]

Killing defeated empty stations should not score event points.

[vagrant scaffold]

No they don't - alliances that contain whales own it all. You need whales in your alliance to combat other whales, but you also need numbers. 1 whale on their own can't hold territory

[spark cypress]

Large alliances or groups of allainces of active players dominate tc. Which requires teamwork and coordination. Which is a good thing.

[burnt cave]

@vagrant scaffold our level 60 can beat everyone and every other whale combined here. We’ve tried

He decides who gets what

[vagrant scaffold]

Then your server isn't trying or thinking.
You can tie big ships up with a team of realtas in a normal TO. If you can hold them at bay in open space, you can stop them clearing your CNs.
It's not relevant in this event, as all the whales are at every TO and you'd just be feeding them points, but in a normal TOs, you can nullify big ship advantage

[burnt cave]

The alliance he belongs too shows up to every takeover to make sure his picks keep the territory’s. It’s easier said then done. We’ve done the realta thing, dedicated several players to try to keep them busy but when the coalition of alliances (what we call them) decides you won’t have territory you don’t get any. Simple fact

It’s always 11 alliances vs one where we are. We just write territory off as no man’s land and don’t try anymore

[queen kindle]

If they're stronger, bigger, and more organized than you, then you deserve to lose.

[sinful heart]

Spoken like a true capitalist. Last time I checked, it’s a game. Scopy just finds ways to make it so our worst traits come out and magnified.

If you cannot see the problem as it was just stated then you are either benefiting from the disparity brought by that, or because it isn’t happening to you it doesn’t matter. What that server is dealing with is called Tyranny plain and simple.

[queen kindle]

why do you expect to win if you've done nothing to earn it?

[sinful heart]

What he is saying is that their lvl 60 (and his fleet) imposed their will on the TC. They PAID their way to power. There is no “earning” a damn thing. (And that is a disingenuous argument) they have tried the realta bombing and it doesn’t help. And if you are really blaming them for what is happening it is the same as saying to victims of rape and war that they deserve it because they weren’t strong enough. Very Mensch, Star Trek….sarcasm & contempt

Scopy has designed this, it is THEIR responsibility to ensure equity and fair play options. Bad enough we have to deal with this type of stuff in real life, we shouldn’t have to do it in our leisure

[queen kindle]

The 60 is on a team comprised of 11 alliances. Of course he's going to win, they have power, they have numbers, and they have an organization that helps each other. It doesn't matter if you realta lock him, when there are hundreds more on his team.

If you want to win, you have to be better than them in at least one category. It's not Scopely's job to make a game where the weak win, that's probably the worst game in existence.

[cyan nexus]

https://tenor.com/view/disappointed-face-palm-seriously-exasperated-gif-7304550

[sinful heart]

Point missed totally

[queen kindle]

you're reading it wrong

[vagrant scaffold]

Working as intended then - he couldn't do it without the 11 alliances backing him

My server runs the "1v1" rule - i.e. you don't interfere in TOs your alliance hasn't joined. That RoE items is specifically to prevent the behaviour you're getting on your server

[sinful heart]

One person dictating because he bought his power…yup working as intended. Real life emulate on.

[cyan nexus]

@queen kindle how do you face off against 11 alliances of the server strongest players you don't you can out strategize them to a degree grub them with realta's but it all comes down to them having the power to do decide who wins and gets a territory and who doesn't matter when they can drop territory without any negative results and show up on a weaker alliances doorstep who got their territory through sheer determination and either rob it from them or camp their stations and destroy their ships before they can repair and do anything to try and score enough to hold the territory

[sinful heart]

No, I am reading it quite correctly, I think the justification for this behavior (in game and real life) is thin, weak, and bs.

[vagrant scaffold]

He isn't succeeding there because of the packs he bought - he's succeeding because there aren't enough alliance leaders opposing his position

[queen kindle]

You do not, you break them apart. Find common ground with some, and drive wedges between others. You attempt to network to make your team stronger, and push them out.

[past fossil]

You cannot, unfortunately this Event favours the strongest ships. If one side has a ton more high power ships you cannot win, it’s been the same with Raiding stations and other PvP events.

[queen kindle]

So long as one team has all the power, numbers, and organization they will win, and they deserve to. It's your job to change one of those factors.

[sinful heart]

A lvl 60 (especially with help from other 50+ players) can impose their will. And no one could stop them.

[past fossil]

As someone said before, unless your server has better politics or enforces some form of rules regarding TC in trying to attract fair/balanced fights you will just have to handle it as best you can

[sinful heart]

You cannot break them apart because scopy incentives push them to band together and they will either be benign (mostly, our server whales are mostly not interacting with the smaller people till this, great community building there) or malignant narcissism that needs to spread their will through the power they bought. And they attract each other.

Human beings are not altruistic by nature, that what rules of society do.

And when that fails you legislative deal with it. (Laws) scopy is responsible for this, but it is as they want. They want to create haves and have nots. They really could care less about the game (by the way they have been acting lately what else can you think?) it is $$$$ for them. And the best way to do that is play on peoples negative emotions and cause a keeping up with jone’s mentality.

[reef verge]

When the krill all end up leaving, the whales won't have anything left to feast on.

[burnt cave]

@vagrant scaffold what can you do? His own admiral just says to “not piss him off” they can’t control him. He says he’s above roe and can play however he likes and he’s right. His own alliance is scared he’ll turn on them.

@sinful heart it’s what we face in our game here

We just stopped even trying to get territory. If you look at the current holders they can’t even activate the perks. No one’s mining there but it’s controlled by the coalition so bend the knee or be without. It is what it is for us. Many just don’t bother anymore

[vagrant scaffold]

That's a difficult point - the only way that situation could be changed is for all the alliances on the server to make him outcast. He can't be in every system at once, and being locked out of alli LBs would make his game infuriating for him.

[burnt cave]

@past fossil this portion of the games been off limits to several alliances since scopely introduced it. I was just stating some of the things that are distasteful to myself and others

[sinful heart]

There will always be sycophants who will bow to him and lackeys who want his support. System works as intended. Perfect emulation of life 🙄

[vagrant scaffold]

Well yeah - it's a social game played by humans - how else is it going to work?

[burnt cave]

Territory is an easy fix to make it fair.

[sinful heart]

As long as scopy rewards them for it and doesn’t hurt them, it will not change. And the folks who benefit will fight tooth and nail to keep the disparity. And since they have the money….screw everything else.

[queen kindle]

and there'll always be people who hate him, or his team, or other members in his coalition. They just need someone to lead them.

[burnt cave]

Who wants to spend that type of $$ to win a game? Only an idiot would. No one’s going to “messiah” and lead the rebellion. The cost would be staggering.

[reef verge]

server transfers need to happen. It's silly that someone is literally stuck on a server, especially if someone moves time zones.

[burnt cave]

It’s an easy thing to say “hey get a bunch of players together to usurp him” or ostracism. His alliance won’t ostracize him, won’t control him and they couldn’t anyway if they even tried. Territorys just needs to be fixed. Limit it to three territory’s , attrition for non buy in ships in the takeover, must buy in to participate, these would help

[rare dust]

Just spent a ton of Charged Nanoprobes. Nil points.

[mint lake]

God this is pathetic.

You habe ops 28s in a bracket with OPs 50s for the avatar

Definitly.not impressed

[burnt cave]

Lol

@mint lake the pain is real on all servers

[mint lake]

I'm an OPs 42, so I have "A SMALL" Chance to place top 5, but ffs, an OPs 28 in one of our allies is in the same bracket. It's a load of crap

[low flicker]

Still not a peep from CS

[vagrant topaz]

Yeesh

[civic nimbus]

No you can't with the lag you can't repair fast enough

[vagrant scaffold]

That depends entirely on the client you're using - most of the lag people get is from their phones & inet connections

[iron rock]

Is anyone else scoring negative points in the expand SMS event? I'm using tetyrons and they are scoring negative

[civic nimbus]

That is pure bs my PC has the same lag problem that also means everyone in here that complains about lag it's there fault

[sinful heart]

Yeah, I have even had the client drop on my pc. So scopy is the culprit not my phone 🙂

[vagrant scaffold]

Almost all of my lag issues went away after switching to pc

[civic nimbus]

So since you don't have any problems it's the 100's of other players complaining about lag it there fault since you aren't having problems

[iron python]

Absolutely not your fault. The lag is a repeated topic the mods, including myself, discuss with Scopely staff. They're aware and working on it. But it does suck.

[mint lake]

Meow?

[errant belfry]

nope... my game has horrible lag on my phone with a great 4g connection, my tablet on wifi, and on PC... and this is normal play and not even during takeovers

[tacit dawn]

Concerning the number and time requirements of today's events: Threat Reduction, Recue the Crew and Cosmic Cleanup all at once is just too much. This takes too much time, especially Rescue the Crew. Please review the event plan and reduce the load on your players.

[mint lake]

Amazing, no one wants to address the elephant in the room about the SLB brackets.

[iron python]

I have already complained escalated this today. Too many runs for too many things.

[iron python]

I complained about that too.

🤣

[earnest minnow]

Tetryon spending not counting towards the ‘expand sms’ in the ‘turf wars’ event group. Did all possible tetryon research at my level and not a single point awarded for spending loads of tetryons. 🤦🏻‍♂️😱😬

[queen kindle]

Tetryon Radiation isn't the same as Tetryons

[earnest minnow]

🥚 ➡️😬

My bad

Thanks

[sour jetty]

Good evening Kaution,👋😉 i tend to disagree, with the right tactics and a fortunate position on the planet it is ( or was ) quite easy to defend against players 10+ levels above, I recall many nights defending players n these were some of the most fun, The game n events seem to push those tht throw money into the game into such a high advantage tht there is no way to enjoy an evening defending fellow allies.

For example, the recent events mean tht loyal players gets wiped out by 30m Trib, 20m Korin n a 13m Kelvin, at no gain but purely event points! Please explain the fun in tht?! 🤷‍♂️

[vagrant topaz]

Any idea why lvl 21 is competing with lvl 39 in the avatar event?

[burnt cave]

@vagrant topaz if you reverse the 21 you get 12…. Level 39 is basically 3+9=12 … therefore in scopely logic they are equal.

[frail bridge]

Wow this take over event is the worst event they have ever done

[vagrant topaz]

Dont challenge them 😂

[frail bridge]

Lol

[azure isle]

tc pvp slb zero sum scoring is discouraging low lvl players participation or should I say punishing those small players fight and die and not even leaving a footnote on the score board . how's that supposed to promote pvp?

[turbid hamlet]

Thanks for adding an event tomorrow that requires SYNDICATE XP without any Event notice AFTER I've already redeemed the Syndicate XP we got in the Battlepass!!!!

[open otter]

These devs are super smart at making horrible events

[void isle]

Can we shop having so many events with in events and places to click to join them. (Tickets is one thing) but there so many things to click and remember to join. Either lay them all in a row. Or put them in floders that actualy have somtjing to do with eachother (like the officer exam is perfact)

[stone vector]

So, the recruit events claim you can score with directives but fails to mention not all directives.... the expand event claims you can score points for spending iso-resin. I spend it different way, on ship or research but no point are awarded.
Please make sure your events work and your descriptions are complete!
Should i be wrong about any of this please point it out so i can feel like a Noob. Thnx!

[queen kindle]

iso-resin is specific to research, and only a few nodes. Most iso you use is probably emulsion and wouldn't count

[muted granite]

iso-resin is only in 4 research, iso-emulsion is in a whole bunch others

[stone vector]

👍, thnx! We need more people like you. I played this for a while now and just discovered there are 2 blobs of brownish stuff that look alike 😅

[muted granite]

and i'm with you on the directives, i wish they would really spell out which ones worked and which didnt in the descriptions, and not rely on tribe knowledge to figure it out most times.

[cedar moss]

rewards bugged? Ops 40

[hushed elk]

Ops 44. + 41 4* Unc Ore

Compared to yesterday's

[magic quail]

Same here. Is it a joke? It already was way less than last month but this today is like falling down 10 levels..

[cedar moss]

<@&509691205798592532> can you forward that on to be looked at? ❤️

[hushed elk]

Maybe it's small rewards because Red alarm is larger

[pseudo stump]

Scopley! STOP making events that are based off things that YOU bottlneck. In order to complete the syndicate event I need to get 2200 syndicate xp in 5 days, it's just not possible with 250 a day

[zenith ravine]

11k for mine 🙈🤣

Impossible

[manic estuary]

Oh Goody! Another chance to buy rare directives!

[fervent laurel]

you call that hard? I get 250 a day and have to get 11k points 🤣

[sharp thistle]

1 Syndicate XP is 5 points, so 250 per day is 1250, still not going to get the 11k without paying for it

[hushed elk]

The battlepass gives XP 😅

[zenith ravine]

Yeah on the day after the event ends 🤣

If not longer

[hushed elk]

2.5k points from the 500 in the free battlepass so far.. so that's half of the event done, plus 5 days of 1,250 points is 6.25k total so that's 3/4 of the event done for free.

[sharp thistle]

Should've had this event yesterday, when you could claim the syndicate xp

[zenith ravine]

But I got my 500 already

[hushed elk]

the event was in the calender, they assume people will be smart and NOT instantly claim their battlepass..

also, the paid battlepass gives an additional 7k points too, so $20 USD you can easily finish the event, with some wiggle room.. If you've not claimed the battlepass yet.

[sharp thistle]

A lot of people will have claimed it to get the new missions and get them done

[desert nimbus]

Rockstar should work for scopely, great apologist for crap events

[hushed elk]

I at ops 44 just got 41.5 BILLION steel from the Red Alarm event

The steel event yesterday gave me 1.5bil total.. 😅

Which event's pay to win? The syndicate one? Or the Red alarm one?

[sharp thistle]

The Syndicate one, even if you haven't claimed yesterdays free BP rewards, there is no way to get 11k points without buying something

[hushed elk]

100% true

Last time they ran it, and it was impossible to complete they gave compensation chests, though.

[sharp thistle]

At least last months version of this event you could buy Syndicate event xp in event store, don't have that option this time

[frail bridge]

It's there but only in 50 or 100 packs

But not in the event store to be able to use some to get it big waste of time devs

[radiant mauve]

Anyone else finding that this Unity event isnt scoring any contributions, just help request? I spent nearly 500mil in PS but none of it counted

[sharp thistle]

Points are delayed with scoring

[sharp thistle]

Last time they ran the event there was event store you could buy with earned currency so you could do it without the p2w aspect, this month you can't

[radiant mauve]

I have taken that into account. I have managed to score on that event and every other except from using parsteel contribution. Thankfully the other event has given plenty of steel to replace the wasted lot!!!

[desert olive]

Don't have an event that includes EVERYONE! You may as well set it for 35+ and leave it hidden for everyone else...

[craggy urchin]

The requirements for final milestones this month are too high, scoring metrics are unrelated across events, and the amount of points awarded for activities that don't involve a credit card are worth a near negligible fraction of points given the top milestone.

These events are not "pay to win" but are right up on the line. The options are spend 3+ hours a day doing events or drop 50$ to build a ship/buy some resource that you will have to spend immediately for points.

This game is at a low point for sure.

[sinful heart]

Why are you carrying water for scopy?! Are you justifying this? If so, one thing to say, Stockholm syndrome. Seriously folks need to quit being okay with this type of crap.

This is a game. A phone game, not some amazingly crafted game like Myst. Quit trying to make fetch happen.

If I have to get a spread sheet o it and plot my next month for sms’s that isn’t a game, that is a job, and Scopy doesn’t pay me to play. 😉

[ivory heart]

Today I actually quit plying the game. I have enjoyed it quite a bit for a couple years. But matching level 53 players with players in the low 40’s in SLB for me is the last straw.

[frail bridge]

Even lower 28 with 39 witch is max on my sever no chance at competition there no reason to try at all

There really messing up the chance for any one that free or Simi free the play the game

[lusty rock]

Go scopely you changed the whole server into realta krill to try and do a takeover, 👏

[vast breach]

Turf wars event sucks you take part in takeover and Whales come along and clear system

[fresh monolith]

Will today start an event for earning the galaxy tokens required in the eventshop?

[white bramble]

That was yesterday

[carmine cradle]

How many broken desealing rod tokens for a single desealing rod?

[vagrant topaz]

If I had to guess at current exchange rates? 1.27*10^33 🤣

[fresh monolith]

I know but i hoped that it will be not the only one. 🤨

[white bramble]

No. It’s always 1 a week during arcs, the event stores always run for a day after

[fresh monolith]

ah, ok. good to know. Thx. 🙂 (what is arcs?)

[white bramble]

The battle passes

[manic estuary]

Red Alarm is FANTASTIC!!

[mint lake]

Delete Critiscm and ignore posts about obviously screwed up events.

#scopely

[vagrant topaz]

Need brackets for mariner avatar event

[eternal lintel]

Well, only if you're 31+. Bc levels below that didn't get it, AND the reward payouts for other events aren't as good, but Scopely is opting not to fix them bc they're balanced by the rewards for Red Alarm being too good. Only we don't have Red Alarm, so we're just out of luck.

[eternal lintel]

The Lower Decks theme had the potential to be so much lighthearted fun, but as a level 27 player, I'm excluded from much of the content -- which seems to fly in the face of the theme of Lower Decks. Instead of creating opportunities for players of all levels to support their alliances and work together, the ship and corresponding events are available to and beneficial to only the higher levels. No way for lower levels to support others in their alliance, no way for bigs to support their smalls. Turf Wars, similarly, is just the higher levels slaughtering everyone who enters the system, and near-empty leaderboards for lower level players because few can stay alive to accumulate any positive points. Events like Red Alarm, which are quite doable by players in the 20s, are limited to players 31+. The avatar event requires players in the 20s to compete with those in the 50s in gaining power.
I feel so excluded in an IP I was so excited about, I'm losing interest in the game.

[compact crane]

Easiest way to fix the turf wars event is to fix territory. People don’t move because everyone is settled and secure. The members of the massive coalitions don’t want to disrupt peace and potentially get kicked out. Territory on our server is full of alliances who negotiated their space. Vast majority couldn’t defend it if challenged 1v1. No one challenges or tries for unsanctioned attempts because the king makers and the massive coalition behind them will show up to every single takeover to prevent any change to who has a territory. Make territories attempts only for those who join/pay the entry fee and add an 8 day cool-down for rejoining an alliance you dropped to help prevent “pop-up” alliances and discourage people propping up weaker/place-holder alliances. Also counting hitting dead bases as “kills” for the event in an uncontested takeover is not a good scoring metric.

[gilded warren]

Territory melted servers why havent expanded any more territories

Shut down the game introduced territory massive lag ect

[vapid meteor]

what am i missing about the "earn syndicate xp" event? doesn't seem possible to complete it. Is this another "pay to finish" style event?

also +1 to the "turf war event is broken" comments. Number one alliance in my server is a alliance of 4 players who have never tried to take a territory. They are winning because, by having none to begin with, they can simply challenge all available ones

On the one hand its nice to see the credit card warriors being annoyed, on the other hand its dumb that an alliance is being rewarded for never having participated before

All these same comments were said for every run of the event in the past as well. Very annoying to see nothings changed to try solve the issue

[white bramble]

Yes.

[civic perch]

Nope, I saw it reward me with 1250 points yesterday. The other 1250 (total 2500) happened several hours later. We’ll see today, maybe they just gave everyone an extra 1250 points. There were people in the SLB event with 2750 points yesterday in the top 100, and I doubt they bought a pack with 50 syndicate xp, so likely they are at a syndicate level that gives them 300 xp per day (1500 points) and they got a bonus of 1250 manually by Scopely.

This is for the syndicate event

[fervent laurel]

I got 2.5k points for 250 daily. And I got em instantly. Not hours later or by scopely. Event log stated +2.5k as well 🤔

[white bramble]

2.5k sounds correct 👀🙈

[fervent laurel]

Well, officially they don't, as I should get 1250 only

[white bramble]

Actually yeah your right 🤣🤣 it’s 1250 👀

I like this anyways 🤣

[fervent laurel]

Scopely messing up at its finest 😂

[white bramble]

It’s good quality messing up. I like it 😈

[warped sierra]

Good morning Commanders! Last night's show introduced for only the second or third time ever, EVIL DJKitty as he represented the pvp perspective on Turf Wars. Was he alone? Or was this iteration of Turf Wars something that some players found to be an improvement over previous runs? Debate runneth over as we heard from members of our panel, special guests, and studio audience members, plus, for anyone who is so utterly outraged, some Bonus Content (in a separate episode uploaded this morning) to make all your woes disappear. PLUS calendar updates and event mechanics explained for the upcoming week! Please share with your team, sub to our channels, and ENJOY the show!

[halcyon fiber]

The worst about Turf Wars is that players can score per Station Attack. Crack a base, get 250 Points every 5 seconds

[candid quarry]

Oh really...

[halcyon fiber]

yeah, since noone shows up for fights anymore, its more of a "Who can shoot the station the most" event

[sacred echo]

Just found this area, and while I normally like the events, just my opinion, this one is not my favorite by far. I am not a cartoon fan.

There are so many things I like about this game, but so many players that want to mess it up with their own rules. It's a war game, and should be played like a war game.

[ruby ivy]

Turf Wars and Territory Capture is by far the worst part of the game.

[halcyon fiber]

i like turf wars, the worst parts are Leaderboards and Scopely Greed

[silver briar]

Rescue the crew is an awful event now. It shouldn’t be such a nightmare grind.

Everyone fighting for 31s is stupid. 37s are way too hard. Reduce the hull milestones.

[halcyon fiber]

get someone to pvp with and score points

also there are 35s aswell

[silver briar]

The return on effort and resources spent is negative

[halcyon fiber]

then ignore it, nobody forces you to run events but yourself

i usually ignore 90% of all leaderboards because its not worth it

for me the event was pretty low effort

[silver briar]

At ops 35 it was easy. At ops 36 it’s not worth it.

[desert nimbus]

no borg slb for a lot of people

havent heard of anyone who has the event

it has appeared now, stand down, thanks 😛

[brisk herald]

A whale event for Borg, for whales only, for a nice avatar, how dumb is that and how does that help sales. I would fire that person who came up with that nonsense. You want universal events for all players, those increase sales. You want them buying the battle pass, stop making it for whales only. That is an awful job. Battle passes should be for all levels. Plenty of resources, goodies, not top leveled elite players. Very frustrating

[trail shale]

Because everyone has a Vidar, right Scopely?

How hard is it to code an if operand that checks a players shipyard for the Vidar? It's simple: "if:vidaroccupied=0 borgevent=0 hostilekillevent=1"

Or whatever script dictates the Vidar is in a players inventory.

Script hooking for inventory checks isn't rocket science considering you have a script check running to determine leaderboard events! Hook it to the shipyard as well!

[tribal ravine]

I go all out in lat rush.

[devout trail]

LD Season 2 Lieutenant's quiz Q10 answer of 'spend 1 latinum' does NOT work on Research, Repair or building speed up purchases or uncommon recruit chests - it only triggered when using lat on an INSTANT SHIP REPAIR

[tribal ravine]

Now I need to peel off a dvor to do iso, and perhaps another to kill Borg. Sucky choices ... Don't like these events together. Usually I can peel off one dvor for PvE for a short bit then back to mining.

[hot bluff]

Always something, tried all 4 after options after buying lat didn't work for a ship part. Way to end a fun event on a phbbttt!

[brisk herald]

Scopely has a huge issue with how they do these sales and events. How Atomic, with what x5 Dvors, whaling in an event, help sales, how does doing elite whale specific events help sales. A (40) Vidar in (33) space just whaling away. They don't event-level segregate the events so all levels have a chance, which increases sales, not whale specific. You can't even participate in some of these events until your certain level. I have no idea their mindset, but its just an awful universal sales model system. What was that Ja Ja Binks line? My...

[sterile valley]

I destroyed my Realta and had a 1 latinum Instant Repair work. speeding up Repair didn't work

[devout trail]

aye, edited to reflect.

[zenith ravine]

Seems to be varied, work for me but not others in my alliance

[devout trail]

just to be clear, #10 works with this button and this alone afaik.

[supple coyote]

i am getting this event

[high vault]

Could they offer anymore SLBs on the same day

[nova delta]

The turf wars Alb and the Hunter/Killer xslb are being exploited by players, who have buddies in other alliances, providing them with weak ships to kill during takeover right outside the base. There is no way to compete with that fairly. I put a lot of effort, hours and billions of tritanium into the events , now some guy overtakes me in 45 minutes with that „trick“. Those 2 events I consider failed due to poor design.

[worthy fiber]

Tried that, does not work. Either. If you spend some other form of Lat besides a ship repair, things do not seem to work. 😦

[halcyon fiber]

It's even worse than you think, the thing you describes is not even the most effective way to generate points

[robust basin]

I finally figured it out!! Repaired a bunch of ships with lat, wasn’t working, until I spent ONLY 1 lat to repair a ship. Then success! You cannot spend more than 1 lat it won’t work 🤦‍♂️

[light trout]

This is exactly what finally worked for me. I already knew that Instant Repair with Lat was supposed to be the way to complete the event. However, when I tried it with my Jelly after completing the other 9 segments, it didn't work. I then tried contributions with Lat and research with Lat. None of them were working. I finally tried what I suggested to my team earlier in the day. I used my Realta to die hitting a hostile, then repaired with EXACTLY one Latinum and BOOM!! Points!! this was not consistent among my alliance some had no problems and spent varying amounts of Latinum to Instant Repair with complete success. Very glitchy event to be sure.

[toxic galleon]

They literally meant spend just 1

[worthy fiber]

Use your Realta, make sure it is destroyed, then instant repair. Does not work if it is just wounded.

[ruby ivy]

Excretus of Borg - SLB, OPs brackets are way too much, stop being douches and make it fairer!

[viscid phoenix]

Was the opposite for me. Spending exactly 1 on a repair didn’t work. Spending more than 1 worked straight away

[ruby frigate]

Free the last question (#10) of this event I have done all of them 3 times and it is still not completing the event.

[shrewd canyon]

I am not always getting syndicate event points for completing syndicate dailies wth cant they get one day of correct event scoring

[eternal lintel]

I spent 2 lat to repair my Vidar from killing the hostiles from the earlier questions and it worked.

[errant tendon]

Tried all the suggested options several times to spend lat for the last question and still not completing it

[queen kindle]

destroy a cheap ship, and use the instant repair with lat button

[errant tendon]

Done that

I have done all the suggestions on here

[queen kindle]

try it again, and clear localizations, and reboot

then try it again

[errant tendon]

This ☝️

That includes the reboot option which I have just tried again

[wanton marten]

B, D, D, A, A, B, D,C, B, D, answer 10 spend latinum, do this through repair cheaper than instant button

[errant tendon]

Yes I am well aware of the answer and suggestions here been reading them since last night. I have tried them all but for some reason computer says no

[queen kindle]

try destroying a different ship, and you have to use the instant repair button (uses lat). Using speedups won't work

Lots of people have success with destroying their Realta, but some do a Fortunate

[errant tendon]

I have tried around 5 different ships. Full and part repairs with various amounts of lat. As I said I have read people's posts and none of the advice is working. I've resorted to putting in a ticket.

[queen kindle]

post a SS of the event card you're trying to answer

and what ops are you?

[errant tendon]

Its Q5 of the lieutenants exam so I know the answer and it is spend 1 lat. Can't ss as at work. Ops 43. Not tried any of the wrong answers yet lol

[queen kindle]

that explains it, the use one lat for a ship repair pertains to q10. Q5's answer is not D.

I've never seen the show, but I can't imagine a universe where Ferengi could earn too much lat for a deal

[errant tendon]

Cheers

[errant tendon]

Yeah still not working for Q10. Will try again later. Maybe lag 🤷‍♀️

[vapid meteor]

The event "lieutenants Exam" requires an awful lot of clicking through menus and options. I've never watched lower decks, i don't know any of the answers so i'm just trying each one.

Each time is several taps to get into the current question to see the options, several taps to get back out and then 2 or 3 more to get the "search co-ordinates" option up with the keyboard. Often there are a few loading spinners in between these actions

UI / UX could really do with some overhaul, with some quick links to make it easier. Its quite slow and complex

[errant belfry]

just a quick way to go back to our main system screen from all the embedded event windows would be nice

[rapid valley]

Not scoring for me but is scoring for everyone else in my alliance, and I am participating in this event

Submitted a ticket but as usual I am expecting some lame answer or no helpful information to help me out. So I figure here might do something

[low flicker]

@light shale Finally heard from support. They claim everything was scored correctly on their end, and they will not award me the items for 2nd place

[queen kindle]

Hunter Killer has a neg scoring mechanic so it's possible to have a zero score if you've lost enough. What is your KD ratio in takeovers?

[rapid valley]

I can show a battle log of winning during takeovers. Is there a place I can look to see what my KD ratio is?

[queen kindle]

need to see the inbox and the battle reports of enough fights to have a positive kd ratio starting from the top

[rapid valley]

Well apparently I went on a hostile killing spree and went past 300. So I’m not able to get my battle logs from all the territory defense/capture that was done yesterday and today there is no territory to do

[queen kindle]

can check again tomorrow, nbd

[rapid valley]

Will do

My alliance says I’m scoring in the ALB portion of it so they believe I should be getting something

[queen kindle]

the ALB only has positive scoring so that's expected, but it's very possible to have a zero score in the xSLB if you died too much at the end

[severe copper]

No Jellyfish Pursuit on 77. Not sure if other servers in the 70s are experiencing the same issue. Last month our event was delayed a few days. Will it be added this month as well?

[rapid valley]

Possible but for how I play I don’t see that. Especially if the event is 1st place all the way to 250th placement and the event is telling me that I haven’t scored yet

[winter coyote]

Anybody else not getting points for the Command Potential event

[rocky sundial]

Big fan of the Lower Decks show… whoever wrote the mission dialogue for this arc really nailed it. Nice work!

[vocal ether]

In the excretus of borg event SLB, you bracketed players that don't have access to the Cerritos mechanic with those that do. That doesn't make sense

[raw swift]

Does anyone know when enterprise is getting added to the game? Can’t wait much longer to see archer, trip, tpol and the NX-01 👀

[queen kindle]

The latest roadmap doesn't show anything that suggests Enterprise so I'd guess many months before we get that IP

[mild glacier]

STOP HAVING NEGATIVE POINTS FOR PVP EVENTS! It discourages people from participating because whales just hang around killing everything and denying anyone else any points.

[slate stump]

0.3k ..really ?

Completed all days up to today …

[half plover]

That's no PvP... 😅

[scenic flint]

Scopely, Losing points for participating in an event is never, I repeat NEVER, a good idea.

[thin bear]

I'm sure everyone LOVES PVP events where the best crew features a rare officer that's been out for 3 years and has been behind a paywall the whole time. Makes for great competition.

[mild glacier]

Disco pvp is broken, my ship never fires against any ship of any level or any crew

[thin bear]

And to be clear, my comment is just as much about the continued delays in actual officer sourcing of certain officers and inconsistency in it. There is NO reason Harrison shouldn't be in Ultra and Premium recruit packs by now.

[hazy sierra]

Losing points discourages participation. Even the disco pvp event that does not lose points for losing against other types of ships, still loses you points in the xlb. Llave the point deductions to the mining events.

[scenic flint]

Ok, I thin the event description is just wrong. It seems you gain 1 point for losing but 3 for wining. That is much better

[white bramble]

For SMS yes but SLB is +3 for win -3 for loss

[scenic flint]

I know that what is says, but in testing it seems to match the SMS

[white bramble]

Strange. It shouldn’t. But let’s enjoy that while it lasts since they will fix it

[scenic flint]

I think the scoring should match and I hope it's a copy paste error from Scopely.

[fallow fox]

Most annoying aspect of battle passes is when you finish the days BP event and don’t unlock the next set of rewards. This happens to me every month despite the fact that I complete every BP event. It’s stupid especially since I know I’ll like complete the rest of the months bp and heroic bp.

[boreal canyon]

Some days you unlock 2, some you get none, what's the big deal

You'll unlock it immediately tomorrow so...

[sinful heart]

Alright this ata event is getting silly. One 3 day epic and nothing but 1 and 2 day common and uncommon missions? Really?! I think your RNG is slanted . And till scopy proves otherwise getting really sick of these blatant money grabs.

This is going to be the first time I haven’t completed an ata event. Not going to pay now. You failed scopy, your marketing tricks won’t work on me.

[trail shale]

The PvP events need power limitations on whom you can hit. Either figure this out, or never do them again.

especially in Origin space of all places.

I am over being whale stomped during your stupid events $copely, to the point I have no will to care doing them anymore.

[strong lagoon]

Who signed off on a PvP event where you lose points for being destroyed before the system loads and the incoming attack notification comes 10 seconds AFTER?

[manic estuary]

They do seem to've cranked up the spawning rate of territory armadas, thankful for that!

[final roost]

The only thing that's keeping me from dipping out is my alliance at this point. Everything else isn't much of a surprise

[frank spade]

Events just keep getting worse

If I hadn't already wasted a year and a half on this pile of excrement I'd delete

[ember kelp]

I'm Ops29 and only had the Explore SMS event at the start because I don't have Discovery.

They JUST added the Exterminate SLB event for me.

Only way for me to get points is the Origin Armadas.

[frank spade]

Hopefully your server isn't full of "donkey shaped coverings for the head"

[dim hare]

Great event - to bad you get killed by someone 15 levels higher before you can attack anyone close to your level…. Not wasting my time or rss or speed ups on 40 repairs…. Another scopley BS event

[frank spade]

But it gets better... the SLB reward isn't just a frame. So the bullies at the top get rewarded even more

[quaint parrot]

You can destroy armadas in origin space: 8 armadas to complete it if you can find only strongest players than you, maybe using Harrison (oneshot).

[halcyon fiber]

they are just playing the event, why call them bullies? blame it on scopely but not the players

[frank spade]

When they talk and act like bullies they are.

[sullen badger]

Treasury Round 2: Double the amount of hostiles needed to be killed...

Good plan, Scopely... good plan on doubling down on ignoramus.

[vocal pawn]

are both the current SLBs server wide bracket? that's unwinnable for anyone in the lower end

[trail shale]

This event?

Not mathematically possible to complete, unless you plan on giving me more than 18 diodes/day.

[bright citrus]

An away team Battle pass event right after you multiday away team event. You gotta be kidding me.

[vocal pawn]

the SLB where all levels are competing for quark shards, no tiered brackets. Also yes saw this diode collection per day won't let u upgrade enough in time

[trail shale]

I was more on about the SMS as I don't give a crap about "whale dong competition" AKA SLBs anymore.

Like at all. I don't even waste my time with SLBs.

[vocal pawn]

with tighter brackets it may even be fun! but this is indeed ridiculous to have a serverwide SLB

[trail shale]

With tighter brackets and spenders separated into their own? Yes. I'd be able to tolerate SLBs.

As they are now? No. SLBs boil down to whom has the most expendable income, and not skill. Full stop.

A "competition" that is not in my book.

[kindred aurora]

Once again, punishing players for progressing as intended.
I saved diodes until the calendar for this part came out and started upgrading the treasury when I saw there was no upgrade event for it, because holding back is stupid when there's no event and upgrading the treasury increases how many diodes you get.
And then we get this event out of nowhere. Thanks.

[trail shale]

I'm waiting for the armada event to drop, after my alliance and I have spent the rares we get awarded for the Syndicate event...

Because that's always how it goes...

[vagrant topaz]

It was changed (added) some 5 days ago, just fyi. I did the same 😅

[thin bear]

But you're not supposed to progress unless Scopely blesses it with an event first.

Sure, that sucks most of the fun out of the game, but that's the developers have turned the game into.

And was that comment somewhat sarcastic? Sure. But is it wrong?

[junior flicker]

And how are we supposed to finish the upgrade your treasury event with no options to get the diodes?
Oh wait... there is an option ... Just NOT for FTP

Come on Scopely.... Another event behind paywall?

Finishing 35 other buildings in a few days isn't an option either

[north path]

Pretty much if you play the game regularly and try to max stuff out you're screwed

If only I didn't purchase the extra queues to build and research faster, seems that just screws u over for events

What would be nice is a point shop for events instead of just tossing out rewards randomly or leaderboard, allow ppl to use points to pick and chose from a selection higher rarity uses more points

Love how even if I finish the sms I'll still be 3 short, so what's even the point

[silver briar]

This turf wars event is garbage. Allowing people to farm dead bases is an exploit

[vagrant topaz]

Do you mean like the event store that we get after every arc that runs minimum 3 months?

[north path]

I dont recall an event store like that after the recent arc

[white bramble]

The last arcs had it pre built in but the Arc back in December or Jan had an event store finale

Sorry my memory on which arc it was is poor. I want to say TNG part 5? 🙈🙈🙈🙈

[north path]

I only started midway in the ferengi part 1

rushed leveling for part 2 so I could take part in the recruit events, still fell short

[vagrant topaz]

As I said, minimum three months

[north path]

O I thought u meant the event store ran 3 months after the arc

[white bramble]

No it mainly runs in the longer themes that are 3 months+ it runs on the last arc.

So depending on how long the plan to do lower decks for we could see one for this as well

[manic estuary]

So Red Alarm was just too damn good? So they're replacing it with an avatar?

[pale orchid]

Just wanted to chime in on Turf Wars. Just an awful event for the ALB. small whale alliance with no territory easily wins? No change in alliance territory holdings. crummy rewards. Just bad. Reset the board if you need to. Move particles and territory bonuses with regularity if you want this to be a bigger part of the game. Otherwise, its just for a research tree going a little faster and not much else

[hollow violet]

YOU HAVE 14 DAYS!

[sinful heart]

And the rewards went DOWN! What’s your point?! More work, less rewards and we shouldn’t complain? Screw that scopy is money grabbing and switching the Hand and the pot

[hollow violet]

Rewards are NOT down.

[sinful heart]

Sure don’t look as impressive as last time. And THAT is all that matters. How “I” feel about the value. NOT scopy or their water carriers. Ain’t no way that is worth what they charge and it is far from special.

And if it FEELS less it is scopy’s own fault for creating such a f2p hostile system

100$ doesn’t even buy you an upgrade in this game. And folks act like they are doing US a favor. 🙄

[viscid phoenix]

There is no work involved. Just complete your dailies.

[wanton anvil]

I am very tempted by the lockbox, but in the end the payout will not significantly change/improve my game. The free path is a nice addition!

[frozen trellis]

is the last question on the lt quiz still broken?

[tribal saffron]

As someone who joined the game during the last few days of RoA1, the Upgrade the Treasury SLB is tempting to try to push for a Quark. But the leaderboard seems oddly configured — it goes at least 18 levels. I can’t tell if that’s intended or not.

[tribal saffron]

It works. Just quirky. Crash a t1 ship into a hostile and insta-repair.

I had to spend exactly 1 lat.

[hollow violet]

I think they changed it to killing a hostile in a specific system

[frozen trellis]

I spent 2

kill one in rigel?

[hollow violet]

Yes kill a hostile in Rigel. I think it has to be a level 14 hostile though

[vapid flint]

why does mariner avatar slb, syndicate advancement slb, upgrade the treasury elite slb have no brackets? makes the events poop

[quaint parrot]

The key is "waiting for specific event".

[quaint parrot]

Kidding? it's not. You can use all your officers to start away team missions and waiting for specific event

[foggy carbon]

What is going on with this treasury event? At level 24 what am I going to do with piles of 1 star ship parts?

[queen kindle]

Vault contents scale according to your ops, server age, and prior engagement with the cash shop. If the rewards are insufficient for you, then increase one of those parameters

[gaunt igloo]

So I put in a help desk ticket and was told I'd get a response within 24 hrs, it's been over 60 hrs. My first assignment completed for this event was an epic with critical success that didn't score correctly. This is going to leave me just shy of completing the event.

[queen kindle]

Is that score the result of collecting one mission?

[gaunt igloo]

Yes

It scored as a rare but was an epic.

[queen kindle]

I've noticed recently that when you have a lot of collectible missions there is sometimes an error where selecting one to collect results in finishing a different one.

[vapid flint]

there's no level where 1 star ship parts are applicable, no matter your level or server age. it just makes the treasury loot box worthless and people won't bother with it.

[hot bluff]

Still crying in my beer over ticketed rewards getting nerfed 😭 And Fleet Development is a particularly 💩 trade off. Sigh.

[lean hornet]

For the ticketed events, didn’t you used to be able to use Officer xp to gain power? It’s not there now, so probably no way for me to finish that one as it would require upgrading all 5 dry docks plus additional to get 810k power.

[neon valve]

The ticketed events payouts look short. At ops 39 I normally get 1B steel token but the last milestone payout is 120M. I get better payouts from regular events. WTF Scopely?!

[manic estuary]

This armada event isn't QUITE p2p but it's REAL close, def in the stokely being a bunch of jerks category

[signal tangle]

Glad you have it, I’m missing out, thought it was gonna be 20+??

[craggy urchin]

Ticket event payouts are a light compared to previous runs, you are probably better off just conserving the tickets till the payouts are more worth it.
The armada event is functionally pay to win, given that it is only completable by free to play with months of saving directives or being carried by a paying player. (Which isn't free to play, it's shifting the cost to another player.)
Overall this is just one of those Fridays where players are better off doing the battlepass, putting up a shield and living their life lol...thanks for the day off from my phone job Scopay 🖖

[vernal isle]

This armada event is just damage. So uncommons counts as well, just work together to build complementary crews that increase everyone’s a damage output.

[foggy carbon]

My ops is 24... so you're saying the rewards suck because i've only ever spent ... 4.99 in the cash shop

[tacit dawn]

I know this doesn't make things any better, but at ops 36 you'd have the exact same rewards... 😅

[foggy carbon]

just goes to show how disconnected they are I suppose, I was excited about the f2p desealing rod mechanic but with rewards like that ... I guess I don't care

[queen kindle]

if it's not worth it, then you don't need to buy it. But it's an interesting conversion mechanic that'll be more enticing as you gather more broken rods. Being able to double-dip on rewards for buying a pack will certainly increase sales

[hot mist]

I'm Ops 20, Server 69, and I don't have the Armada Hunt events that were supposed to start today

[slate stump]

You need to triple armadas and/or reduce spawn rate to 5 mins

[halcyon turtle]

Yay! More armada hunt.... oh it's only scoring for FED/KLN/ROM armadas and I need 90 million damage to complete the SMS sigh

When you guys first introduced Armada events they were pretty cool. I think that's just because it was new. There was a novelty to it. You also did great providing a good amount of directive sourcing. So completing the event did not feel ridiculously taxing.

Now I see Armada Hunt and I'm immediately disheartened and when you guys launched the first Armada events I was probably one of the louder voices singing it's praises.

Everything that spawns in Sirius, Groombridge, Denobula, Eden, Ursva, Gorath etc is jumped on in seconds. Like good luck if you weren't watching that system with mechanical precision, or dark magic.

So as an OPS36 I decide to run solo 8m power targets but if someone from my alliance ignores my repeated "SOLO" calls in AC I can't boot them from ruining my armada and wasting my directives by making that armada score like 3 - 6m points instead of 10 - 15m.

It's not like I'm even seeking to be competitive with the SLB I'm just trying to complete an SMS.

Then there's these ridiculous respawn timers do I have nothing better to do with my evening than sit and watch Groombridge constantly? To try and beat the guys using mechanical eyes or dark magic to run their armadas?

Let's talk about some constructive feedback, how can Scopely improve what is fast becoming the event I hate the most in the STFC calendar even over events that are pure who has the deepest wallet:

1. Remove the respawn timer, if a system has 6 armada spots - it spawns 6 armadas, 1 is killed it respawns immediately.

2. Improve sourcing 2.5 uncommon armadas a week is not enough. 0 rares guaranteed a week is not enough.

3. If it scores on damage - make every armada count stop making hurdles that don't need to be.

[hardy knoll]

Anyone know how many broken desealing rods to open treasury?

[vagrant topaz]

4000

[hardy knoll]

Ouch, wonder if that varies by ops level. I see that I can get 360 in my 30 day chest (ops 38). That'll take 11 months to get 1 rod.

[crimson mountain]

Hey. I miss the Armada Event. Why its not in my Events?

[halcyon turtle]

are you in an alliance?

if you've gone solo then it doesn't show

[hot mist]

It's not showing for me either. It's supposed to be for Ops 20+

[crimson mountain]

@halcyon turtle Yes. DK at EU118. Lvl 24.

All of our other members lvl max 24 do not have this Event.

@halcyon turtle in my alliance online members up at lvl 25 got this armada event. 🙄

[fervent laurel]

Every armada event is 25+

[crimson mountain]

I dont think so. I got that in my notification. And the ingame notififation dosnt subscribe anything about the necessary lvl.

[fervent laurel]

The data you see there is actual data provided by scopely. Events being 25+

[hot mist]

But Scopely said in the station news channel that the event was level 20+

[crimson mountain]

@hot mist ok. And i am lvl 24. But i cant See this event

[fervent laurel]

🤷

Scopely messed up ingame News

[crimson mountain]

What can i do?

[fervent laurel]

Nothing. Its working as intended

Event is 25+, Scopely messed up the ingame news

[vapid flint]

they fail events on a daily basis and are still employed, doubt anything is going to change.

[manic estuary]

The "rescue the crew" event as is gives a half excuse for people who love pvp to do it. As an event it's a clear fail. If it was intended to make average players do pvp it should have a lot better point structure and/or much better payout.

[jovial zinc]

If the minimum points you can earn is 200 and all the points are multiples of 100, how do these players have these scores ending in snything other than 00?

[muted granite]

https://tenor.com/view/math-is-hard-addition-wrong-answer-fail-mathematics-gif-24427575

[vernal isle]

Could be counting directives spent on tc or burial ship madas

[gusty sparrow]

I think 1.8M ultra tokens is a little steep

[devout trail]

Yeah that’s uh. No bueno

[trail shale]

https://tenor.com/view/money-wallet-jetsons-funny-the-jetsons-gif-5561743

[sinful heart]

How the hell am I supposed to get 1.8 mil ult tokens? Really Scopy can you get anything right?🤨🙄

[nocturne pike]

Was about to post the same thing.

[vernal spruce]

No one has 1.8 million ultra recruit tickets. For real?

[sinful heart]

Now they are insulting us. Constantly

[limpid galleon]

this must be a mistake. and EBL to spend ultra tokens? wtf

[spring umbra]

Was getting ready to post that photo 😂

[vernal spruce]

I like the other events, but seriously, this one is terrible

[limpid galleon]

<@&509691205798592532> someone please tell the devs to fix this. this is rubbish :o

[spring umbra]

If there is a $99 pack for 1.8 million I am in!

[sinful heart]

It’s like Marie Antoinette saying let them eat cake…this type of crap is getting really tiresome

[vague fossil]

Someone is high on drugs when making the event ?

[sinful heart]

It’s the disconnect that the rich have, they seem to think that is fair.

[uncut trench]

I just spent 8000 tokens and didn’t score

Someone worked out you’d need to spend £10k to win the event WTAF

[meager aspen]

What a joke. Recruit mariner is missing a few thousand decimal points.

[simple path]

You can't be serious with 1 point per Ultra token? I have to spend 1.4M tokens to finish? You're out of your minds.

[uncut trench]

Someone defo put the decimal point in the wrong place

[grave rose]

👍👌🏻 QA strikes again…. How about someone looks at things before you push to production

[opal kiln]

1.8M recruit tokens scopely? Come on…

[rancid canyon]

Do your maths, Scopely

[long lintel]

<@&509691205798592532> who has $12,000 to finish an SMS event? Are you people crazy?

[chilly vector]

☝️

[turbid hamlet]

https://c.tenor.com/tDQXUq-HakUAAAAM/why-just-why.gif

[thin bear]

I mean...

This is pretty indefensible.

Don't worry, I'm sure you'll get DJ put out a statement soon about how you're correcting it, since he's doing the duties that a community manager should do without pay.

[blissful steppe]

This Recruit Mariner event is insane! <@&509691205798592532> - What were they thinking? reset the target!

[proven copper]

Looks like they fixed it already, but what about the 20k points I already spent that I didn’t get the right amount of points for. And the fact that I spent 20k not realizing this thing was broken.

[sharp hinge]

I think the first want a mats spending event but the change it ! Forget to low the points

[grave rose]

Umm updated to 100 points is not much better you will still need to spend 18k of them 🖕

[indigo oracle]

Battlepass again borg and swarm? You lazy scopley bore us to death

[dense prairie]

Is this a friggin joke?

[spring umbra]

In the past these were like 4-5k tokens if I remember correctly

[compact spoke]

Also Scopley das ist wohl ein später aprilscherz mit 1,4 mio Ultra rekrutierungstoken?? Reicht 1 ferrrarie nicht??

[grave rose]

Jajajaja richtig!!

[high aurora]

18k tokens for an sms at ops 41 is a complete joke.....

[elder forge]

for me 1 ultratoken brings 100 points. still a lot. i wont spend them, its that simple

true fail scopely

[neon oasis]

Seriously?

1.4 million tokens for this crap?

[uncut trench]

Same here

[hushed crater]

One guy from my alliance still got only 1 Point for recruiting in SMS

[jovial zinc]

Why did they change the recruit mariner slb from a spend g3 or better to a recruit token without informing us? Some of us actually read the events & plan. For the first time in 2 years I can’t event collect a milestone let alone complete the event because the official published schedule of events had no recruit token event listed & I spent my over 60k recruit tokens to win a daily recruit event this week. No engaged player would do that. It’s maddening how careless & callous this unannounced change is!

[compact spoke]

jetzt 100 puinkte für 1 Ultra Rekrutierungstoken bei 1,4 Mio Punkte die man braucht sind das 14k token. ist auch nicht besser.

[hushed crater]

Ich spare immer welche für Events. Man muss da leider vorausschauend spielen und nicht alles direkt rausballern, wenn es verfügbar ist

[compact spoke]

ja nur waren jetzt schonm 3 events mit rekrutierungstoken also die mariner transe können sie sich behalten

[turbid cloak]

Who on earth has 18k ultra recruit tokens. Scopely the milestones for these recruit events are ridiculous!

[desert olive]

"Hey, guys, I just had a great idea! Ya know how people do recruit pulls for officers?! Stifling laughter Let's have an event based on recruit token usage pfft and then run offers to sell them!! BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Ahh... This is sure to not make anyone mad and add another reason for them to leave the game..."

Probably the same guy that pitched treasury development event a second time....

"Let's see just how many ways we can work AGAINST the players."

Sometimes I wonder if this game is actually some sort of Vault-Tec level social experiment to see how far people can be conned before they lose patience.

[sinful heart]

It’s not fixed on 8. I still need 1.8 mil.

[compact spoke]

you get now 100 pointzs instead of 1 pointz each token you use

[sinful heart]

Scopy has had a couple these last couple months I couldn’t complete, either through their fault, (cloak event) and nothing is said or done about it (despite multiple tickets) or THEIR fault for making it impossible

[compact spoke]

there is a possibility you can complete this events use your credit card and spend thousands of dollars/Euro etc.

[craggy urchin]

6 Epic Officer shards for over a month's worth of saved up Ultra Recruit Tokens...this event is not only incredibly difficult for the average player to complete but also gives a terribly bad return on resources spent. This is a terrible metric for scoring this type of event

[sinful heart]

Exactly, screw that

[jovial zinc]

Especially since it wasn’t event in the list of published event!

[sinful heart]

And the TNG pack is screwy. As as scopy is shady on what you are getting after maxing an epic hard to tell how badly I am getting screwed on them as well.

This games diminishing returns crap is the worst

[dense prairie]

It just went back to 1 point?

[latent coral]

Lost on support alliance member with Cerritos.

[craggy urchin]

Diminishing returns and the demented notion that going up in level equates with more time to play.

[lean bear]

😂😂

You guys celebrate April first all year!

[dense wagon]

Ok <@&509691205798592532> the scoring is fixed going forward but what about those who cashed in already? Are we just SOL?

[keen remnant]

Missing points on the recruit Mariner sms still. Edit: in game support ticket filed.

[queen kindle]

Contact CS regarding those pts. And mention "Mariner Recruit" in your ticket #👽-how-to-contact-support

[vale river]

Oh cool it’s a mats and directive scoring like it was supposed to be?

[queen kindle]

Spend auctions were scheduled for the first & third weeks. The 2nd week was changed early on to be a ultra token auction

[limpid galleon]

and where was that announced?

[queen kindle]

It's listed in your IGN board, inside your station's interior, on the panel

[limpid galleon]

it's not.

[vale river]

1. It’s the third week of April 2) that was definitely not announced

[queen kindle]

I'm talking about the seasonal bp weeks, and there are 3

[vagrant topaz]

oh yeah its mention in my ign board inside... only when I switch the language to english. in every other language its not mentioned

[limpid galleon]

16.-17. recruit mariner - spend 3* mats and directives

[vale river]

Well clearly it’s the worlds fault for not checking the board retroactively and all only speaking English

[limpid galleon]

it was not announced.

[vapid ocean]

It was

[limpid galleon]

it was not

[vapid ocean]

Again, it was, may not have been for you but this is mine

[limpid galleon]

yeah i'm glad for you then

[vagrant topaz]

wardy change your language to any other language then english and you will see they didn`t announce the change

[limpid galleon]

it has not been announced for me and it sucks.

[vagrant topaz]

It was added late

[vapid ocean]

Ah gotcha, classic Scopley

[vale river]

“Announcing” means making people aware. Putting out a press release then changing it quietly is called redacting

[vapid ocean]

Wether it was announced or not, this event sucks

[vagrant topaz]

agree

[vapid ocean]

At least make it opening any recruit pack

[vale river]

In context of scopleys spectrum of disrespect for its players / customers this is up there

[vapid ocean]

This Battlepass has been pretty good by recent standards, really let down by this weekend. This event is broken and pointless and then the armada event which I always hate
I was expecting a mini Easter event

[limpid galleon]

100 %
i was really surprised that the BP till now was quite nice (especially compared to the last two). i was about to buy the 20 bucks elite pass. now i really think about it twice.

[vapid ocean]

I wouldn’t bother, they don’t deserve it

[limpid galleon]

yeah obviously they don't. this SBL is just the crap of the crap >.>

i remember that one BP when the 100 epic 4* gas were in it, so you could research advanced borg refinery. that was a good one. the one that was really exceptionally good.

[elder forge]

the one and only !

[sinful heart]

Yeah, they said it was a screw up then

It is ALWAYS a screw up when we get candy like that. Even their “gift” boxes are more miss than hit

[abstract dome]

The Event was different announced give us Our stuff back! Unbelievebale

[limpid galleon]

2 mariner shards. unbelievable.

[light trout]

I've said this over and over and Scopely just never seems to get the hint..... If pack prices were 10% of what they are now, 9.99US for the highest packs, Scopely would turn FtP into PtP overnight and easily make 10x what they make now with their over-inflated prices. They'd turn nearly 90% of their players into whales instantly just by pricing packs inline with all the other games on the market.

[light canyon]

This arc is the worst much rather be doing the Tribble’s

[lean bear]

Oh, you don’t want to but over priced watered down ultra recruit packs? Hmmm…maybe I’ll finish the pan crew…for the low low price of bahahahaha.

[polar bobcat]

14k Ultra Recruit Tokens to finish the event. 12k URT in a $99 pack. If your event takes more than a $99 packs worth of tokens just to complete, you had better make the rewards worth more than the $99 pack. Who's writing your events scopely? They need to be fired

[hollow wyvern]

This Recuit Mariner SMS is the actual worst. Echoing what others above have already said.

[light trout]

So they changed the dates, but still ran it on the dates that were originally announced, if we go by the pics you posted. My IGN currently shows 9-10, 23-24, and yet.....

Scopely just can't seem to get things straight on their end.

Also, I have not seen one ANNOUNCEMENT about the dates being changed. They likely did that in the background.

[lethal barn]

This would destroy the game within weeks. The reason there even are f2p in this game.is because it is expensive. Many f2p won't go to buying packs if they were €10 and the difference between f2p and any paying player would be huge

[light trout]

Let me see if I get this straight..... You think that if the price were dropped to 10% of what it currently is, NO ONE who is currently FtP would buy packs? You think the gap would be wider then it is today?

That makes no sense, The concept of volume sales must elude you completely.

[lethal barn]

Currently people who spend an occasional $20 won't get too far ahead of the f2p. If prices were 1/10th the gap would be so big all f2p would instantly leave

Many f2p just don't want to spend anything or just get the 2nd builder/research

Simply straight up buying resources they will never do.

Some might but many other won't

[light trout]

Wrong. The majority of FtP would start buying packs right and left, just like they do in other games for phones. You clearly do not understand the buying patterns of mobile game players.

[lethal barn]

If this were true then Scopely would cut the prices

[light trout]

Wrong again. They are greedy. Simple as that.

[lethal barn]

They need to keep the f2p cannon fodder happy and the way to do that is by making sure people who spend only a little won't get too far ahead

[lethal barn]

If all the f2p would buy packs it would make them rich, so if it were the case they would do it if they are greedy

[light trout]

You live in opposite land. FtP are leaving the game in massive numbers BECAUSE they can't get ahead and the gap between FtP and PtP is getting wider and wider every day.

[lethal barn]

But clearly it doesn't work like that

[lethal barn]

The gap would widen if the same $ would give more resources

Since most f2p are f2p by choice, not because they can't afford it

[light trout]

You clearly have no clue. Have a great day. Bye.

[lethal barn]

Go troll somewhere else. You gave not a single decent argument

[light trout]

LOL!!!!

[lethal barn]

The only p2w games that last are those where the packs are expensive

[light trout]

No. You chose not to understand my argument and you used false arguments to counter mine. Try again.

Here's an idea, survey the server you're on. Ask the FtP players if they would buy packs that cost 10% of what they charge now and gave the same rewards. Go ahead. I'll wait.

[lethal barn]

You do realize the real whales will also get 10x more packs if prices drop right? So the f2p that start spending will still get further behind while those who stay f2p will get even more left.in the dirt

[light trout]

It's not really about the gap. It's about FtP being able to get ahead, while still making money for the company. If profit is the only factor, who cares about the gap? With their current model, they're pricing too many people out of the game. There will always be people willing to spend more than the next guy, that will never change, but giving other players at least a chance in the game while still making insane profits is a no-brainer.

[lethal barn]

Get ahead of what? Other f2p? This game is all about the gap between free and paying players.

[lusty rock]

Jeez scopy i have to do 18 armadas to finish the event, fu

[lethal barn]

You can play without buying packs justnfine

[light trout]

ALL about? It's what is killing the game. Try again.

[lethal barn]

And the gap would widen if packs where cheaper is what I'm telling you. So it would kill the game faster

[light trout]

What you're telling me is 100% wrong, is what I'M telling YOU.

[lethal barn]

Typical f2p players don't even care about the prices since they don't plan on buying anything besides maybe 1 or 2 small things to getbstarted

[lethal barn]

Tou claim this but give no argument

[light trout]

They don't plan on spending because the prices are so high, genius. I don't know how many FtP players you've talked to, but all the ones I've talked to say they spend on other games but not on this one simply because they are son ridiculously high.

[lethal barn]

If you want the game to last you try to reduce the benefits for paying players. And you do this by giving less resources per $ spend obviously

[lethal barn]

But even if they do spend once prices drops, the whales will benefit way more. Hence they will lose out because the gap widens

And at the same time the real f2p also quit because they have none left to compete with anymore

[light trout]

Sticking your fingers in your ear and screaming so you don't hear is not the same as me not having an argument. I have given you one that is simple and to the point, but you refuse to accept it. That is not me having no argument, that is you choosing to ignore it.

[lethal barn]

The only point you make is that some (or a lot) of f2p would buy packs oif they were cheaper. Now this may be true but that doesn't help them or the game if the whales suddenly get 10x more progression. In general the cheaper the packs are the more you are forced to buy them to keep up and thus more players would quit

So your premise is correct but your conclusion isn't

[lusty rock]

The problem i have is they only dump $100 packs, for example the treasury slb, all i have 100s but all i want is a 5 or 10 to bump me in the slb and id bet theres 20 other ppl willing to do it which means scopy loses out on 100 200 dollars because none of was wantto spend to be number one, its dumbassery

[lethal barn]

So if they were greedy they would lower prices since that gives them more money. I think they keep prices high so more small spenders and f2p can keep up better. And the ones who do spend the big $ make up for the loss of small sales

I'm pretty sure they got the business of milking us for all we got figured out

[lusty rock]

Where did i say anything about greedy, im talking about maxing profits by offering cheaper packs with a corresponding less value, they are likely losing out on 20k per server on that event

[lethal barn]

Well, I'm saying is they probably calculated the maximum profit already. The other guy said Scopely is greedy which is something we can all probably agree on

[lusty rock]

How can you say that when im telling id buy a lesser pack to boost myself in the slb, 10 dollar packs will have no effect on their 100 packs trying to win 1st place

[manic estuary]

So here's the question I have a bunch of 1 pt per token points on my recruit mariner that I turned a ticket in on, do I dare add onto my points now or will that screw up everything even more?

<@&509691205798592532> 👆

[lethal barn]

Because they need 9 of you if 1 of the current $100 pack buyers switches to the $10 pack too

[lusty rock]

Pretty sure theres 10 ppl that would pay 10 bucks for 10 shards of quark

[vagrant topaz]

@iron python tell the devs thanks for fixing or adjusting mariner avatar event to have brackets. That is highly appreciated

[turbid cloak]

Bur what are the brackets? Mine still showing the same as originally. Would be good.to know as if it is being sorted out in next few days will be too loatr to make sure you have accrued enough for proper final milestone.

And funny how recruit event for this weekend now says spend ultra credits! Scopely are you seriously trying to make players quit the game as that is what it feels like.

[pure hamlet]

After all the announcements and after rebooting the game my event still shows 1 point per URT, and 1.4 mil points needed to complete….same as when today’s events started.

[queen kindle]

Clear localization to update the event card.

[thorny perch]

Why isn't Scopely able to announce Events correctly? (in every language). It's a farce to split your resources for two events based on this announcement. Here we are talking about Ultra Token. This is a recent ingane screenshot

If Scopely is not able to make the game available properly for everyone, one should not offer all possible languages. I recall that it took over 1 year for the officers to be correctly assigned skills in other languages. For the most part, they were completely mixed up!

[rustic plover]

Still no fix for the mariner sms points scored before the other fix, yet others reportedly have it…

They should have lowered the requirements rather than increase the points then only 1 fix needed…

[vapid flint]

everyone should just be given the mariner avatar, they messed up the first time around having no brackets and they messed up the scoring for defense platforms. its basically a non event. same with some of the other SLB's with either no brackets or no clear idea of what the brackets are. e.g upgrade the treasury SLB, syndicate SLB.

[naive viper]

Still haven't received the points for Recruit Mariner SMS. Points are the same now as they were before the 'fix' yesterday.

[opaque mason]

<@&509691205798592532> Bad joke for lvl 52? Usually we get several billions 🤣

Like that

[cosmic yarrow]

Same here at lvl39

[sharp void]

What's with the tiny payouts for ticketed events scopyky??

[pure hamlet]

They’re trying to get you to burn through resources and money for peanuts.

[vagrant topaz]

There is one more mariner avatar event. I didn't even try in the first one but I should be able to get it this time. Competition probably even less in last event

[normal elm]

At 41

[proper blade]

Is anyone experiencing issues with Crystal Mining ticketed event points not registering?

[mild glacier]

Hey scopely, thanks for disabling the 5% officer full pull from the ultra recruits during an event that requires using 20k of them. Just keep finding more ways to lie to and anger the player base.

[fervent laurel]

@mild glacier

Still there

[frail bridge]

Ya scoply need to fix there stuff

[mental robin]

Got a full pull of Troi yesterday

[fresh holly]

please stop giving us tickets in battlepass and give them on ticket event days because most of us yesterday and today have no tickets to do events thanks

[gritty bobcat]

Is it possible to get the in game news outside of the game? Looking to get a copy of the event schedule I can read outside of the game

[normal elm]

It works but 5% is very low 95% not to get a full pull

[unreal osprey]

This is stupid. Using monthly loyalty chests, F2P players have to wait 12 months for a free desealing rod? Seriously Scopely? And let's say Scopely keeps broken desealing rods in the battle pass overflow event each month, then you get a free rod in 6 months. Total BS.

[vagrant topaz]

Then don’t spend them. Means of delivery notwithstanding, it’s very simple. You get 10 tickets per ticketed event day. If you don’t spread them out over the days, that’s on you.

[normal elm]

At least there is a path sure its over broken glass and covered in salt and you have to be barefoot but it is there

[white bramble]

At least you **can ** claim a free loot box every 6 months for a feature that was planned to be completely paid.

[uneven relic]

And it’s NOT 1 in 12 months,

you can get 720 per month. 360 from Battlepass overflow, and 360 from the 28 day loyalty chest
so 5.5 months to get the 4000 if you get both each month

[unreal osprey]

I have not heard guarantees that it’ll be in every battlepass overflow.

Plus I have f2p players that can’t always complete the battlepass overflow, so it could be 6-12 months. Or more accurately, 24-48 weeks.

I loosely say months because Scopley labels it as 30 days, when we all know it’s 28 days.

[unreal osprey]

Step in the right direction? Yes
Where it should be? No. I have A LOT of f2p players that are very upset.
Scopely could do better and still sell desealing rod packs to those that don’t want to wait.

[uneven relic]

Um and that’s what they are doing,

[white bramble]

Which world do you live in?

[uneven relic]

And it’s been released from the CCs that it’s coming in the loyalty chest and the battlepass overflow

[uneven relic]

They were upset initially that is WHY they created a f2p path in less then a few weeks of releasing the vault event

And 5.5 months isn’t that much considering it was a full pay path in the first place.

Where do you work? I’ll come walking in and expect you to sell me what I want for free.

The world doesn’t work like that

[white bramble]

Please do 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[white bramble]

It really isn’t that long and if the loot box is similar to what I have rn I would happily wait to get it free

[uneven relic]

And upset they get a chance to get something for free?? Entitled much??

[unreal osprey]

I don't appreciate the snarky comment. I'm just providing feedback from my alliance, even if you don't agree with it.

[unreal osprey]

I do listen to TalkingTrek when I can, but not as often as I would like to with work/family life. I was not aware that Scopely has committed to providing the broken desealer rods in all BP Overflow events from here on out. I appreciate the info.

[dense thorn]

Multiple tickets, and Support tells me “the fix has been pushed”..

[pseudo ridge]

I like that there is a free path to opening the treasury. My feedback would be that the amount of broken desealing rods should be reduced for the cheaper ($5 usd) treasury unlock relative to the $100 usd unlock since there is wayyyy less loot. For example, I am Ops 41 but there are 2* mats and 1* ship parts in my treasury event but my desealing rod still costs 4000 broken parts.

[mild glacier]

6-12 months is the average time it takes for f2p to gain access to content that was originally pay only. It makes decent business sense as that’s about when the income from that content drops to zero.

[clever osprey]

Me too, automated responses and tickets being closed without resolution. Others have said that they received gift chest with ultra recruit tokens and missing point..... But I've received nothing

[dark horizon]

Not really a gift if you have to pay something for it innit ?

So when do we get Star Trek: Beavis and Butthead ?

[timber sundial]

why is the Cerritos event is a slb instead of a solo?

[zealous lake]

Concentrated Lat should be added to Mining Mastery Battlepass event since regular Latinum is already included.

[trail shale]

Stop. With. Swarm. Hunts.

I. Am. Tired. Of. Swarm. Hunts.

[dapper wolf]

I am a new user. This current event (lower decks) opened the Treasury. I completed all the tasks and the only way to open is if purchase the key for $100? There are not enough "broken keys" available during this event to "buy" a key. I am not a happy camper right now. Sorry for the rant

[dark horizon]

Is Threat Reduction really running for the 3rd time in the past week or is it just me ? I am getting old so my memory may not be what it used to...

[fervent laurel]

It is 😉

[blissful scarab]

This month had way too much gas/dil events and not enough ore. The events should be better balanced!

[chilly sequoia]

This month has not enough gas and Dil, depends where you are and what you're doing

[dark horizon]

i never understood why an event will give some amount of gas, another of ore and another of crystal and not the same amount of each (e.g 10x, 20x and 30x instead of just 20x each), one may choose to use something more than other

[queen kindle]

Our needs for each are not even. On epics, for example, if you built a D4 you'll find your ship costs significantly less than building an Ent.

[white bramble]

Yeah I saw that when I compared a T4 Augur and Ent I thought that was a bug 🙈🙈 sadly it was real 😭

[opaque atlas]

Less swarm hunting, more domination...lol

[normal elm]

At least its not mining or worms. I guess

[broken fossil]

Tired of scopely screwing me

[mighty star]

Event: Erectus of Borg SLB is not exciting.

[left marlin]

So what happened to the Hostile Hunt that was on the Event Schedule for today? 🤦‍♂️

[fervent laurel]

What Ops are you?

[left marlin]

Lol nvm. Didn’t read the fine print, shame on me 😅. Still why limit the HH to just 10-27?

[fervent laurel]

Because 27+ has different event

Excretus of borg

[opaque atlas]

i was joking about domination...lol

[gritty bobcat]

Wonder if there will be a way to source Boimler shards for those with the excretus event. I’m 6 short!

[carmine cradle]

Cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap scopely

[errant belfry]

26 has borg as well... not hostile hunt... think it depends on if you have a Vi'Dar or not

[neat flicker]

<@&509691205798592532> Why am I competing with Level 55 playes (i'm 37) for the Ritos SLB event... with these high level players, they will be able to do more research for points (Since the research is locked to Levels). I was looking to buy the upgrade pack for the Cerritos to compete, then realized it would be pointless as these higher level players can then just out grind me with their research. As much as I'd love the Cerritos avatar, I'm not going to gamble $140 to try and get it, because I'll most likely lose to the top 3 players who are all above Level 46. I guess that's $140 that Scopley won't get because they made the event geared to the higher level players.

[tacit dawn]

I'm sure this has already been said, but the event "Rescue the Crew!" is just another time killer. Not only do I have to do it in multiple runs and repair my ship a couple times, it also takes a long while to kill the hostiles during each run because the systems are clogged.
The feedback within my alliance concerning this event has been pretty negative as well.

[potent oracle]

the event gets done a lot quicker if you pvp

[tacit dawn]

Sure, but I'm at the lower end of the player bracket 35-41, so I don't stand a chance against players at level 39+ with their jellies.

[potent oracle]

doesn't matter if you win, its all about hull damage. look at their crews and try to counter it. a low tier ent can do a lot of damage to a jelly

[tacit dawn]

Again, sure, but I have to do 90M damage. This means I'd have to fly to the pvp system countless times in order to reach the 90M damage goal (and rep in between). And if I assume that I could do 1M damage in pvp each time I'd still need at least 10 runs (right now I need 4 runs in the clogged, regular systems).
I could set my alarm clock for 3am and hope to find no one awake there and just kill the hostiles, but I'm not willing to sacrifice my sleep for this game.

At the very least Scopely could increase the re-spawn rate in the regular systems.

[queen kindle]

Reg systems are a waste of time, pve in the open one

[tacit dawn]

If I could, I would. Unfortunately, survival chances -and with that any chance at some pve- fall rapidly as soon as I arrive there.

[wanton copper]

I said this in the other #🏆-event-chat but if anyone has feedback on an event that they'd like me to see don't hesitate to tag or DM me

Always happy to have a conversation on how you think STFC can improve for the future

[slender spear]

On 186 there was ONE guy doing pvp, and after one fight he left

[mighty star]

To pvp during that event is nonsense. Pve in the open system lets everyone finish fast

[rough ravine]

Unless you just like to PvP. It IS a PvP event so if someone wants to play it that way, more power to them. Heck, I am a below average power level player on my server and I finished the event in three trips using PvP. You still get damage points even if you lose to a slightly more powerful player.

[lusty rock]

Once again, armada events are trash,135 minutes minimum for 1 epic and 1 rare shard horrible

[woeful raven]

Uncommon 39 armada s in Eden are not spawning

[lethal barn]

Seriously, XSLB armada event and nr2 spot gets 2 Riker BP? Who the hell thought this was enough to motivate people to try?

[atomic fossil]

Tickets sure would be helpful...

[lusty rock]

I count 5 events that just arent worth the effort, they must think we are they children that watch lower decks

[jovial zinc]

Xslb just says retrieving, even for many players from my server. Reset game did not help

[hollow violet]

Works fine for me 👀

[white bramble]

Clear localisation it will fix any “Retrieving” messages

[jovial zinc]

Once again this isnt working to display names. Why must i clear localization every hour to keep this working? Brand new ipad pro (bought this year)

[sullen badger]

How about you stop penalizing us for doing your arc gymnastics....

[white bramble]

Unless you have a load of broken desealing rods saved up and they fixed the glitched conversion you won’t be converted 4000 broken desealing rods to get the pack

[mild glacier]

There needs to be at least 6 more systems that spawn level 39 armadas. With the exception of the handful of mega whales literally the entire server is agressively watching 3 systems for an armada to spawn. The moment they do there’s instantly 3 armadas started.

[viscid phoenix]

They are not intended to be available for free every month. You get 2 free a year. If you want it more often than that, you have to buy the rod

[white bramble]

The feature was intended to be completely paid originally and now they have provided a free path for it. Not sure what more you want. If they gave the loot free every month to us they would be tripling pack prices within minutes.

[viscid phoenix]

Not sure in what universe getting free stuff is utterly unacceptable, but I’m definitely looking forward to getting mine

[white bramble]

Let’s say you work at super car company. If I come to your work today you will give me your most expensive car for free? No. Same principle 🤦‍♂️

[thin salmon]

And when for 2 whole days you waiting to see the descelling rod part refine option. No answers form ingame support for 3 days

[white bramble]

It’s been bugged for a week. So no conversion available. Also it’s most likely unless you had 30 day chests saved up you won’t be getting it converted this time round because the key is 4000 broken desealing rods.

[thin salmon]

Isn’t here to report bugs? If so then what I show up is fine enough to be reported to save time in the future

[keen dawn]

Nice false analogy you’ve got there. How’s that working for you?

[white bramble]

I have 43 new super cars in the last 43 weeks since that’s how that works 😬😉

[rocky kraken]

No tickets again your becoming a joke

[uneven relic]

You got your 90 as in the screenshots above, if you spent them already then you got your free ticket events.

[uneven relic]

That’s actually not a false analogy, that’s exactly how people are acting.
That they expect they should be given everything for free,
Or another way is you go to the owner and say I’ll work for you for 2 years in order to get that $100k car, that is how it works,

[keen dawn]

Yeah, no, it’s the definition of a false analogy

[white bramble]

You said that earlier what universe do you live in?

[uneven relic]

Um it was in your news centre, weekend 1 mats, weekend 2 ultras. Weekend 3 back to mats

And talked about in content creators videos and channels too

[buoyant ember]

Need more lvl 42 Epic armadas....one a day is crap in the lvl 42/43 faction systems.

[frail bridge]

Nope don't even have an event that give them guess your lucky had no tickets for event yesterday and none for today all my event are done but the tickets ones that I can't even start

[uneven relic]

No you got the tickets in the battlepass milestones 2,8,12

[frail bridge]

And those get used during the battle pass ticketed events during the time again we didn't get any for this one

[uneven relic]

you get enough tickets for 1 free ticket event per day, if ticket event, if you did more then 1 ticket event per day then you used them all up.
There are 9 ticket event days this month, and you got 90 tickets enough for 1 ticket event each event day.

So you used them up earlier hence why you don’t have any this weekend,

[silver sonnet]

Without bias , remove xslb from your ideas. Stick to same server slb

[white bramble]

Your server doesn’t look too active 🙈🙈

[silver sonnet]

Thats lvl 44 bracket

[white bramble]

Ok then your server doesn’t have enough level 44’s 🙈🙈

[tender arch]

thanks for running ticketed events without giving me any tickets. i enjoy that!! you guys are the best!

[fervent laurel]

You got enough tickets to do one of the 3 events each time Ticketed events run

It was mentioned at the beginning of the arc

[white bramble]

I’m curious who told them this month you can run all 27. 🤦‍♂️

[fervent laurel]

Me too 🤣

[white bramble]

I’m also curious who told them we should expect a free £89.99 treasury every month 🤦‍♂️

I mean that’s lovely but let’s be real it’s never happening

[raven stag]

eh being realistic it's like a $2 treasury

it just looks like 89.99 due to scopely math

[vagrant topaz]

Like how do people not get this? If you would get 27 tickets and thus access to all events…. Why implement tickets at all?

[white bramble]

💯 literally doesn’t make sense it’s always been 1/3 of the ticket events you get access to and it’s not like it was ever changed so there shouldn’t be much confusion 🤷‍♂️

[tawny hedge]

Lower decks BP is 750 away from completion and I have no more tickets or events I can complete. This.... is depressing.

[turbid hamlet]

There is a daily event missing at this hour reset

[manic estuary]

👆 <@&509691205798592532>

[olive prism]

The rewards for the BP were excellent. Everything else was pretty disappointing. If only because there was no way to really enjoy and see the benefits of the ugly cartoon ship. In the past, these arcs gave you the ship by the end and some included it in the missions. Now Scopely wants you to buy it or wait months, which means I’m only in it for the rewards. 

I didn’t bother reading the mission stories at all because all I wanted was the resources. The ticketed events were lackluster, probably better in the past, or at least seemed minuscule compared to the BP rewards. The new officers are DOA IMHO. Not seeing a huge advantage other being someone I can put at the very end of the line behind much stronger officers. Maybe they’ll get better when Scopely releases more BD officers. 

TL;DR - BP rewards were excellent. Cherry and Cherry officers don’t seem to add much to the game experience. Would like to see more established characters added and DEFINITELY need to see LESS Federation ships and more Klingon and Romulan vessels. Would like to see Mae Jemison’s Federation character or Lanei Chapman’s Ensign Sariel Rager. How about Gabrielle Union’s N’Garen as a Klingon below deck officer on a Klingon Cherry like ship?

Use your imagination. Dig deep ……………… space nine.

[white bramble]

This new event is nice but finding 10bil par to spend after the material spend event might be hard 😅

[tame seal]

i was hoping for an event to give parsteel, not require it lol

[inland goblet]

You really need some math lessons.
Morons.

[manic estuary]

So I see the lat event is now the feesha event

[hot bluff]

Geez, why is Scopely so...SCOPELY! Even if I wanted to spend 90B steel, I could upgrade the 15ish buildings I have available and still not be close. So frustrating!

[delicate marlin]

Hard pass on this parsteel event

If I trigger ops 38 that’s 500M and then what. Burn every speedup?

[visual anchor]

14 billion par spend event? You gotta be kidding me.

[abstract bloom]

only 14? Mine is 144 billion

[strong anchor]

Even my L41 defense platforms require only 3B par. How am I supposed to spend over 57B?

[visual anchor]

Only way I could spend that much is to just donate it all to the alliance. Then I’d have almost none left.

[tame seal]

wait. is it april 1st?

[cerulean torrent]

70 billion parsteel, is Scopely on the drugs again?

[white bramble]

10b for ops 37 idk how 🤷‍♂️ I don’t even have 10b

[mortal dove]

This is everything I have and I have not enough buildings to make this happend 😅

[tame seal]

just got 10k parsteel from 4h chest. im working on it

[gusty pewter]

Welcome again in the hall of shame, scopely

[wanton schooner]

Alliance Contributions work apparantly

But yeah I'm lv44 and it's 88.8B

Utter joke

[devout trail]

Uh. At ops 35 you want me to spend 7B par?!

[hot bluff]

As if Mondays weren't Monday enough, lol

[sterile lance]

69.59B!!!!!!!

where's the billions of parsteel in a gift box you muppets!

[rough cape]

Is it a joke scopely? Parsteel spending event immediately after another spending event? The amount we have to spend is ridiculous anyway.

[primal dune]

14 Billion for a OPS 39 Player? You must be kidding. I have no buildings for that.

[sterile plank]

you can donate parsteel to alliance, it is count too

[primal dune]

I need the parateel to rush to OPS41. That breaks my roadmap😡

[thin void]

The milestones for this are about 100x too high.

[tame seal]

i can see ppl buying packs already

[clever sail]

This event is a joke

[sterile plank]

for that you will get several officer shards😂

[languid marlin]

Yeah, not spending 14B par...

[native basalt]

wish mine was 14bill xD

[sage hawk]

We can trade😂

[native basalt]

xD

[sage hawk]

Wtf😂

[native basalt]

ops 49

[dense wagon]

yep not doing this event

[sage hawk]

Lvl 10000000?😂

[native basalt]

49 lol

[sage hawk]

Insane amount 😅

Im not gonna complain after seeing that😂

[native basalt]

think one the lvl 51s said theirs was over 600bill

[nova delta]

I have never seen so much parsteel.. how am I supposed to spend it?

[slender tundra]

Lol

[buoyant ember]

FIX, FIX, FIX, FIX.....heads should roll for such a mistake

[unreal wind]

60 billion parsteel for the event. You can go take a running jump scopely!!

meanwhile @wanton copper is wondering what he got himself into

[native basalt]

less than a week and prob thinking about quiting xD

[tiny terrace]

„Upgrade Station!“ event is completely insane. Give us the needed materials to upgrade something first! Lol.

[buoyant ember]

It's like Netflix, they want to LOOSE SUBSCRIBERS!

[native basalt]

dont give scopely ideas about a subscription xD

[gritty void]

Anyone know if these are actually useful? Or are they just more clutter for the inventory? Only way the event can be completed for me is through alliance donations and I'd have to raid my tokens after blowing most of my parsteel on the Recruit Mariner SLB

[buoyant ember]

In recruitment section

[native basalt]

Not really

[high nest]

Better than mine

[buoyant ember]

Scopely....make an announcement about the Error and FIX, folks are PISSED OFF.

[bold lodge]

Station upgrade event is too much parsteel by about 10x

[gritty void]

57.6bn steel for 1 random officer shard and some gas? No thanks...

[compact coral]

Wtf is up with this spend parsteel event? I can't spend anywhere near that amount!?

[desert nimbus]

i'm level 35, this station event requires me to spend 7.2billion in parsteel, i haven't even spent half of that in total in the game so far and it wants me to spend it in 3 days

[vagrant topaz]

88B parsteels? That is crazy even for scoply

[native basalt]

can i swap with u guys xD

[desert nimbus]

"Hey guys, lets make an event, get the total amount of parsteel needed to level from level 1 to their current level ops, then make them spend it in 3 days for 1 event"

[sterile raven]

Same. 7.22b. Upgrading ops takes 250m and if I did some other stuff I could probably spend 1B… but then I hit the wall with unc crystal and ore and such.

[reef verge]

This amount of billions for parsteel to do the event is looney-tunes.

[pine goblet]

Company is run by a bunch of total morons

[native basalt]

u know scopely runs looney toons game also xD

[sterile lance]

they don't even give you a gift box with a little parsteel to slip in the tip before totally shafting you.

[past spoke]

Please feedback to scopley that spending billions of parsteel for 8 shards is beyond insane. Completely lost the plot with this event it’s actually funny 🤣

[sterile raven]

I think I can hit the first tier of the spend event. 🤣

[sharp hollow]

Event Feedback...... here goes SCOPELY..... If you think I'm gonna spend 14 BILLION Parasteel to finish an event that nets me enough "tokens" to open ONE chest giving me 8 SINGLE PULL officer shards (not even chances at Multi-Pull or Full Pull) .... you are OUT OF YOUR MIND!

[oblique ore]

What joke is this station event? I should spent 7,22 Bil. Parsteel. Even if i would have so much and i want to spent it without knowing what reward i get, i have no idea, how i should spent on lvl 35 so much Parsteel in 3 days. I suggest to adjust this event asap...

[spring umbra]

Event Feedback: Do better

[lucid idol]

What muppet did the calculations for this event? 122 BILLION parsteel at 45 ops, that's most of my stockpile and I've been saving for months 🤣🤣🤣 god help people who haven't been saving, scopely you really need to stop pulling this blatant money grabbing it's getting ridiculous

[wicked vortex]

They don't say what the assignment tokens for ?? But it says April 22 so it for next week but nothing for what they used for .. 10 billion for me too much

[sharp hollow]

Scopely logic .... " People complained about us offering LAME & USELESS Avatars as the only reward in the Event Store last event ..... HOLD MY BEER! WE CAN DO BETTER at P*ssing them off"

[wise wagon]

211B for ops 48

[sinful siren]

Next week you need 10Billion Tritanium 😛

[sterile lance]

723B for an ops52 player on our server

[sharp hollow]

@wicked vortex open your recruitment tab

[past spoke]

Scopley today ⬆️⬆️

[white bramble]

Move like 100x for the ops 40+

[lucid idol]

Honestly feels to me like scopely HQ just has complimentary crack and heroin in every room, every single one of them has gotta be on hard drugs to come up with this madness and release it without anyone identifying it as a terrible idea

[solid lodge]

@wanton copper @soft trench Since your online do you have any information for us, is this a mistake or what. The amounts feel like an alliance event. What's going on?

[lucid idol]

Someone added a few zeros too many, maths is difficult

[strong willow]

This is absolute insanity to think more than a select few are going to spend that much steel and speedups. Luckily someone in my alliance pointed out the ridiculous points ratio. Not to@mention the rewards are garbage. When are those items that I win for@spending all of my steel?

[opaque atlas]

I currently have less than 5 percent of the parsteel needed to reach the final milestone of my SMS. Is this an attempt to encourage more raiding?

[lucid idol]

You spelt "spending" wrong

Everything dopely does is to try and seperate you from your money

[opaque atlas]

I am ftp, so I meant to type it that way.

[lucid idol]

Yes that's the joke

[rough cape]

Did you notice you can open exactly 1 box when spending all that parsteel? 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣

[halcyon fiber]

whoop, someone didnt like my comment

[sinful siren]

After this event you can spend some billions of tritanium to get another chest

so stupid this event

[elder forge]

NO WAY SCOPELY. U heat up emotions at the end of another month

[glad mango]

Smh this event is ridiculous. I have not been in the bracket that gets billion para tokens so idk how they expect me to spend 10Billion para. Smh, and the spend event for the officer tapped me for upgrading so yeah not going to happen. The rewards don't seem worth it either to just waste the para when I could wait for when I can upgrade things I need

[covert kraken]

So I have to spend 7 Billion parasteel for this event, I'm not entirely sure that the buildings from 36->37 cost 7bn in total.

[halcyon fiber]

they want you to remove the steel by donating to ally

[covert kraken]

I mean, good point, but with all my tokens I just about have 7bn, no way I'm spending it all 😆

Event is just kind of crap

[dense wagon]

I mean if i had not just a had a bunch of events that I spent all my uc mats on, then OK, lets rush up to 39, upgrading things that matter. But you have left me with upgrade dumb stuff that does not improve efficiency or benefit my ships.

The amount of "Spend to Win" has been over board. at some point, we are just too broke. Give us some more grind options

[scenic flint]

https://tenor.com/view/this-up-gif-8606566

[languid garden]

This is event is virtually impossible, even if we hadn't had several events requiring upgrades, many of which USED PARA, it's a near impossible sms to say nothing of the slb.

[flint orbit]

use ur tokens

[desert nimbus]

this event requires me to spend more parsteel in 3 days than i have spent in total in over 6 months ingame from level 1-35

[dense wagon]

I have the para, in tokens. I dont have the mats to spend the para on things that matter. ANd I love my alliance mates.... not 10b in para kinda love

[languid garden]

I know exactly 2 ppl who have that much on tokens and I'm not one of them.

[languid garden]

I'm with you there.

[dapper skiff]

The level brackets in these events are a bit absurd. I'm level 25 and last week there were level 41s in my SLB. This even has the #1 spot already taken by a level 29 that put more in this event than I've accumulated, including tokens. It's like stepping into the ring with Mike Tyson to "competitively spar" ... the outcome is already known and it ain't good for the little guys and it keeps the little guys from getting bigger too.

[opaque atlas]

Good news everyone!!! Alliance donations of parsteel count towards both the milestone and leaderboard...

[halcyon fiber]

how is that good news though

[opaque atlas]

That was sarcasm... did I do it wrong?

trying to channel my inner professor Farnsworth

[halcyon fiber]

sarcasm in written form sometimes is hard to spot, expecially when a big part of the global population has the IQ of a chicken

[dense wagon]

I might do that to hit the first milestone. I spent 300m on a building that was getting started, event or no event. might as well get to that first reward

[halcyon fiber]

you never know if its sarcasm or if they mean it

[dapper skiff]

Emotes

[dapper skiff]

Uttering the term Beta Test is a fireable offense @SCOPELY, that's been obvious to me since day one.

[bitter breach]

"Haha, hear them complain about this parsteel spend event. Wait until they see our tritanium spend event of next week... muhahaha!"

[dapper skiff]

Hard pass on that ... might have to use my "safe word" 'cause ain't nobody touching my trit (had to be careful on the spell checker & autocorrect there). 😉

[plain vortex]

Your upgrade the station event that is currently running is 💩

[left marlin]

https://tenor.com/view/dumpsterfire-flooding-fail-gif-13031064

That about sums up the Station Events

[past fossil]

Don’t be so generous

[dapper skiff]

Only one 💩 and not a 🔥💩 ⛈️

[naive pivot]

This is absolutely insane and pretty much impossible at ops 35

[fervent laurel]

Aint impossible 😉

💩 anyways

[dapper skiff]

Well I'm in a slightly more manageable SMS @lvl 25

But the SLB includes levels 27-29 in the top 5 that have donated more than I've accumulated in 6 months of tokens ... and we're 2h into a 3d event. So unless Par Tokens start dropping like beads at Mardi Gras, I'll be consigned to the cheap seats and not in this particular game.

[bitter breach]

https://tenor.com/view/dr-evil-one-billion-mike-meyers-austin-powers-hehe-gif-11108917

[ornate heron]

122b par in 3 days? Yeah. Not happening. Great event, well done 👏🏼

I have it, mostly in tokens….. just not throwing it down the toilet

[vale shore]

For 52.6B?? Put down the crack pipe.

[next badge]

This is a bit excessive don’t you think Scopley?

[obtuse wraith]

https://tenor.com/view/dumb-huh-stupid-idiot-gif-5042504

Let’s launch a parsteel-spending event the day after a materials SLB/SMS which also burned billions of par, trit and dil.

[urban spire]

You've got to be joking Scopely!
