Oh look, 2 different armada directives now too

[pallid saffron]

Haven’t we all learned by now to wait before starting any new events 😂

[inner aurora]

Torres did work BD on them, Hugh did not

[slow rock]

https://tenor.com/view/debate2020-dumpster-fire-hot-mess-train-wreck-terrible-gif-18640948

[tidal edge]

so i got the sms points but didnt count for the slb..

[wheat pendant]

@queen jolt whoever pushed the last go live broke more than just the slb

[slow isle]

yeah, weird mess

[silver parcel]

it's a visual bug

[wheat pendant]

For whole alliance?

[livid shell]

Do you mean my eyes lying to me ? 🤔

[slow rock]

Should be easy for me I'm a one-man alliance 😂

[wheat pendant]

That was a ss from a member, I checked and had same

[silver parcel]

It means that your directives and credits are the same as before

but it shows incorrectly

When you go to get an armada box or start an armada, it's correct

The inventory is just showing wrong

[solemn plaza]

Hugh is specifically for hostiles so doesn't work.

Torres is for non-player hostiles and armadas so she works.

[wheat pendant]

Might not change gameplay but it’s still broken

[slow rock]

[inner aurora]

I know, just giving context

[burnt briar]

my only complaint about this new arc is the lack of availability of blue directives for the chimeras

[carmine compass]

i'm both happy and sad that these are getting wasted

[queen jolt]

working on ittt

[burnt briar]

and tyhe constantly getting booted from the game

[wheat pendant]

These “chimera” should be a separate class of hostile, much like Defense platform is. They aren’t hostiles, aren’t armadas. Showing as armadas is misleading

[queen jolt]

I already reported this to the team yesterday.

[solemn plaza]

My complaint is, it letting you start the new armadas when you're not within range to actually be in the armada when it starts, so then you waste the directives that have basically 0 sourcing.

[warm pivot]

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

todays events

[granite snow]

Rlb not working eu 155

[burnt briar]

yea too bad u didnt see the 30s timer

[slow rock]

It's like an anaconda with vestigial limbs they don't really serve any purpose anymore this baby got the mutations

[wheat pendant]

Thanks

[queen jolt]

I got you buddy!

[tidal edge]

also why is it just rng to differenciate the people all with the same score on 700 points

[haughty hollow]

this "feature" exists since years already

[serene drum]

Dont know how I did it but how this event works??? Gathering saris dominion salvage

[tidal edge]

it should be first come first place...

it's not it's just random

[slow rock]

You got to use the three to five rule the first person you go to is not the right person he'll send you to the second person who still got the right person but he knows who to go to then he'll forget about it and you have to add two more by the time you're done four people have annoyed him and he'll get it done

[paper blaze]

@tidal edge open a ticket at end of event, they will give u same rewards as the first guy with ur score

[burnt briar]

yea i was first to spend directives on a chimera and now im 2nd w/ the same score as first

[wheat pendant]

Can’t even do that any more as some just aren’t scoring now

[pastel knot]

comp chest coming?

[burnt briar]

that stinks

[slow rock]

If that doesn't work you hit it you kick it and then you cuss at it and being that's inappropriate they have to do something about it

[tidal edge]

after it ends?

[paper blaze]

yes

[tidal edge]

will do golan ty

[solemn plaza]

Normal armadas won't let you start/join if you can't get there in time.

[haughty hollow]

nope. the games does not calculate your 5s warp charging.
you can start one and can still be late

[tidal edge]

lol

[carmine compass]

basic scopely math: 21 = 22

[tidal edge]

look how mine says spend

but the previous screen said earn

[tidal edge]

here

same event

so why some spend some earn.

[serene drum]

I don't know how I did it

[solemn plaza]

It also doesn't take into account that the 30 second timer is actually only 20 seconds as you can join in the last 10 seconds.

[warm pivot]

https://tenor.com/view/angry-mob-riot-torches-pitchforks-gif-5859895

[tidal edge]

Same event, for me says spend for him says earn

Chimera Salvage slb

[haughty hollow]

right. so you knew it already 😉

[tidal edge]

i smell a comp chest 😄

30 second time but u start in battleship across the system

lmao poor guy

[thorny wasp]

anyone find a good crew(s) for these things yet

[wraith moat]

So the armada systems listed are not exhuastive. There more. I really cant be bothered with this arc. Certainly not buying anything to support this awful content. More grind and i dont care what the rewards are. More hostiles more armadas are not what the game needs

[wheat pendant]

Anything that doesn’t specify hostiles or armada apparently…..

[tidal edge]

also why is the spend blue particle accelarator ops 50-70 bracket

bs

[wraith moat]

So armada crews font work do these are like assults then

[slow isle]

oh it's an RLB, so the whole region against each other?

[severe marsh]

how do you spawn these chimeras? he have had one spawn and it died isntantly

[serene drum]

Chrimaras are the armadas

[livid shell]

What’s an RLB? I know R&B

[silver parcel]

regional

[civic geyser]

Regional leader broad

[severe marsh]

they are the rare ones, the UC ones dont give anything

[warm pivot]

there are many strong words to describe chimeras, the most appropiate that will not ban me is, a "wannabe expensive waste of time with huge letdown"

[severe marsh]

Only seen one rare one

[fathom flower]

@heady moon had a score on the RLB, had to restart yet again, score on the RLB has vanished

[livid shell]

No scores in RLB

[crude phoenix]

so strange ims. broken events and its only day 2

[livid shell]

May be it’s the as usual bug .: first time coding new stuff not tested enough but released fast .. premature

[ember ginkgo]

Are the chimeras active? Thought that was phase 2 of the arc? All we have are Klingon armadas in the new space

[storm swallow]

Does anyone from scopely read these chats?

[severe marsh]

For those wondering where their scores went, our server only got the evnt today so im guessing they wipsed them coz others had a heead start

[ember ginkgo]

Is it because we’re locked at 50 still?

[slim sierra]

The CMs are staff... in this case, yes the scoring reset/issue is being looked into.

[fathom flower]

Yeah didn't get any score for the sarris dominion salvage either

[severe marsh]

these ar the only ones we have

[livid shell]

So where do we 47s go to hit chimeras ?

[crystal pond]

Anyone know where a fatu grinding area is above lvl 35?

[severe marsh]

We dont have any chimera armadas

[silver parcel]

did you update your game?

[slow isle]

that's odd, all those got replaced with the chimeras over here

[livid shell]

All I see are klinger sentry posts

[crude phoenix]

@queen jolt can we get a notification if the events are fixed. ppl are wasting their one mada now lol

[lapis marten]

Same

[severe marsh]

None of ours are chimera they all the old klingon

[ember ginkgo]

New space appeared with Klingons after app update

[burnt briar]

u try the 42-46 systems

???

[severe marsh]

Ok so basically this is all just forked and some have been scoring for a day already and we only got our event today but some have chimeras and some dont

[burnt briar]

thats where the chimeras are on my server

[civic geyser]

We have them but not seen any in vandris

[severe marsh]

Juuuusty great

[livid shell]

Klingers are as ugly as the chimeras but don’t get confused scopely

[fathom flower]

And scopely wants us to spend money for this? Yeah this nonsense is why I stopped spending money on it

[burnt briar]

ik what that says im js what is facts

lol

[severe marsh]

are you even reading pas that

[lapis marten]

Nope just Klingon armadas

[severe marsh]

they are in the further systems too

[thorny wasp]

this arc is borked

[ember ginkgo]

Just Klingons into the 50s

[thorny wasp]

impossible IMS, broken scoring, pay to participate

[civic geyser]

Yep out of warp range

[severe marsh]

Yup all klingers here BUT we did have a single chimera spawn and it got downed instantly

[serene drum]

Read your event the yellow systems there are crimara armadas

[livid shell]

Seriously if you highlight the entire darn system with the skull candy how t f we’d know where the hostiles are !???? What the actual …:

[civic geyser]

Don’t forget that the ship doesn’t speed the mining too 🤣

[ember ginkgo]

This is a yellow marked system. Has the hostile but not armadas

[acoustic ore]

Any news on them fixing the new hostiles spawning in the wrong areas? making it harder and harder to get faction rep?

[silver parcel]

nothing yet but it's being worked on

[acoustic ore]

Thanks for the reply

[fathom flower]

That's like asking for news if they are gonna fix anything of importance. The answer is, you will be waiting years

[wraith moat]

That klingon 56 system lost its surveys nkw harder to grind fed rep for many

[queen jolt]

Hey buddies! Please give us a moment; I’m still confirming the issue with the RLB

[wheat pendant]

Players: don’t want GQ arc
scopely devs: launch GQ anyway
Also scopely devs: Break multiple lb and hostiles on 2nd day

[thorny wasp]

Whoever put this together, pushed it, playtested it, etc needs to be canned. This is ridiculous

[earnest raven]

On S91, Vandris has Chimeras.

[civic geyser]

184 doesn’t

[wheat pendant]

Can you also check the slb not scoring? No points for salvage slb even though sms is complete. Both say warn

[nocturne wind]

Correction: Paramount wanted the GQ arc.

All their Star Trek games are getting pushed crossovers

Badgey's game has Doctor Who. And rumor has it STO will have a Star Wars ship.

[wraith moat]

I want a death star

[lapis marten]

Me too 🤣

[nocturne wind]

Theyll give you a borg sphere. lol

[sterile fox]

That doesn't make sense, Paramount does not have any affiliation to SW.

[nocturne wind]

Disney money, baby

[wheat pendant]

Nah paramount would have to pay Disney there

That ain’t happening

[heady moon]

We have raised this and are looking into it.

[nocturne wind]

Unless they assume they can make more off selling the ship than they would in licensing. After all, give Trek fans a Millenium Falcon to fly around in STO...

Most would be saying "shut up and take my money"

[iron steeple]

The Chimeras are solo or group?

[nocturne wind]

Solo

one ship

[burnt briar]

so im getting complaints one my guys was 3 sec away from a chimera and didnt get to join it @queen jolt

[warm pivot]

solo, but last hit gets the win, i bet

[wraith moat]

Whats the timer on these

[severe marsh]

30s

[slow isle]

no, they appear like solo armadas, that don't regenerate their health, you get a reward just for damaging them though

[nocturne wind]

Everyone gets a participation chest called "Survival chest" in their claims. Those that win get the "loot" for the destruction

[nocturne wind]

30 sec

[warm pivot]

thats what i said, last hit gets the win
everyone else must be okay with pushing the last hitter

[thorny wasp]

@heady moon @queen jolt thank you both for being our voice back to the team, you are by far the most responsive CM's I've seen across any game. You put up with a lot from us. So thank you, despite our b*tching

[thorny wasp]

i almost didnt make mine and I was in system

[nocturne wind]

Which is why it'll take alliance coordination to destroy them within your alliance.

[heady moon]

Thank you!

[wraith moat]

I thought these were solos

[tepid lotus]

They are.

[wraith moat]

Then why di they require alliance cordination

[tepid lotus]

Because you have 10 rounds to kill them.

If you don't kill them, they stay there damaged.

[burnt briar]

ok i was first in the rlb now im not placed @queen jolt

[tepid lotus]

Do you want it being killed in the end by your alliance or by random other person?

[wraith moat]

Ten rounds solo though. Why dors that require alliance co ordination

Im obviously missing sonething

[tepid lotus]

You do 10 rounds, take it down to 5%

[queen jolt]

Thank you. Pauly is everywhere right nowwwwwwwwww

[tepid lotus]

I swoop in and kill it and get the kill chest.

[wraith moat]

Answers need to assume no prior knowledge

[tepid lotus]

Yay me, sucks to be you.

[clever raft]

where chimera armada spawn

[primal stag]

@heady moon can you ask the team why we can only get one start from the chimera per event, seems like wasted potential

[severe marsh]

some servers dont have them

[grim drum]

Have the misson for th come out yet for under 40 yet as I am 39 can not see them yet

[twilit lintel]

i knew i shouldn't have closed the game after reset ughhh

[wraith moat]

We ha e players killing them solo in under ten round i mean ops 54 hitting a 52. So why do we need alliance co ordinarion

[tepid lotus]

They want you to spend $100 for directive packs apparently.

Good for you. You don't need alliance coordination.

[wraith moat]

I think one start is not going to be enough hammy. Whats my incentive here for even bothering.

[primal stag]

Good, that means the content is DoA if tweaks aren't made

[heady moon]

Will raise.

[twilit lintel]

i'm soooo getting it this time

[late ermine]

Still no chimera in 188...

[tepid lotus]

I don't even have one start. 105M fatu scrap for 50 directives.

[ashen harbor]

Great quality over quantity.

[primal stag]

Thank you

[hollow wren]

The money grabbing is too much, let people enjoy the game without spending stupid amounts of money.

[heavy idol]

Especially when the score of the one I could start, got wiped 😅

[topaz burrow]

Im really starting to feel done. This arc is the biggest dumpster fire yet. 🔥

[thorny wasp]

2 if you got really lucky on your scrap chest pulls

[heavy idol]

But will see how this turns out in a few hours

[wraith moat]

I ha e 50 too and one in battlepass tonight with elite track.

[vast vector]

So when are we activating the Omega Directive since the Protector has Omega onboard. lol. 😂

[finite otter]

Guess I can just check out of this entire arc. How about you properly label the SMS, etc. as the heroic events they obviously are. Having to pay to participate in regular events is absolutely insulting to the players.

[graceful sage]

Armada specific buffs, does that negate officer abilities that are for armadas?

[heavy idol]

Yes

[stray pawn]

But they are super easy to kill in round one?

[warm pivot]

lets wait for this months CC coping videos trying to smooth out all the garbage

[severe marsh]

yea the singl one that spawned on our server got downed in round 1

[tepid lotus]

I wouldn't know since I'm not spending $100 on them with all the other costs this month.

[graceful sage]

Hmm, so just shear dmg boost

Officers without any restriction on hostile vs pvp vs armada

[narrow summit]

And yesterday was so smooth. Thought we finally had a good arc rollout without a major event issue.
insert 0 days without accident sign here

[heavy idol]

Yes, khan/lorca/511/ent-e data, that sort of stuff

At least, I've been told

[finite otter]

Well, the Invasion hostiles taking over faction systems wasn't particularly helpful.

[wheat pendant]

https://tenor.com/view/futurama-accident-fry-hammer-nail-gif-5714444

[severe marsh]

I wonder if they aware that many servers dont seem to have chimeras

tehy didnt address it in the announcment

[hot sandal]

Hmm how to score if no chimeras spawn

[grizzled lintel]

what is chimera? something to eat ?

[crude phoenix]

@queen jolt https://i.imgur.com/PyzgTvl.png was this intended to be a spend extravanganza cause with maybe 1 run per 2 days i dont feel very competitive here

[severe marsh]

"We are aware of scoring issues"

Guys the scoring issue for is that we literally cannot score

We dont have chimeras

[fast scarab]

Anyone else not seeing chimeras?

[grizzled lintel]

they beat the game, they fixing a content thats not even in game.

[somber gulch]

no chimeras on 702 either

[fast scarab]

Same here, just the Klingon fortress

[civic geyser]

Been sat in vandris which is listed nothing for over 30 minutes pointless events if you can’t score

[warm pivot]

I was lucky with refining, but take your point. The sourcing of Blue Particle Accelerators is going to be painfully slow

[tepid lotus]

It's clearly intended to get people to buy packs for it.

[kindred echo]

What are under 40’s meant to do with these eyepatch thingies ?.

[grizzled lintel]

dont despair boys, the cash shop is still and will always work even if all of their servers blow

[crude phoenix]

so the whales can work extra hard for that IMS too while they are at it

We still haven't gotten to the second milestone on the IMS my server. 9M points... At that rate, we'll be lucky to get the third milestone.

Sucks when your first IMS milestone is more than the final milestone on other servers.

[grizzled lintel]

so... what did everyone had for eat today ? except this garbage of a fail app

[warm pivot]

thats on live ops

[surreal junco]

there is nothing to do

[warm pivot]

you can stare at the timer for exchanging ship blueprints one by one?
i would really like to know the thinking process behind that
"lets make it as obnoxious as humanly possible" "yeah i got the idea bro"

[grizzled lintel]

close your phone and take a walk , nothing wrong in taking a walk

[civic geyser]

Or download monopoly go

[finite otter]

Amen to that. But apparently it's working as intended because 🤬 the players.

[ember ginkgo]

Ewww it’s 105 out there, I’d touch the grass but it died lol

[finite otter]

This arc is total 🐂💩.

[grizzled lintel]

died same as this app , seems you just out of luck

[north torrent]

So, F2P is allowed to do one of that armadas, even with PB Premium its just two and neither of this does give enough loot to even pull one of that bloody chests, right?

[ember ginkgo]

Well no, that’s dependent on having the armadas on your server

[granite snow]

Ops 49 .... one level 46 completed all the sms for me

[sterile fox]

Oh good! Here I was worried it wouldn't

[west matrix]

ok... so I repeat my question from yesterday... where are these chimeras to be found?

[granite snow]

U get extra for killing it but from the looks of it, similar to mirror universe , you get more loot from the boxes

Yes I did it before I read the armada crews don't work and only khan proc'd

[finite otter]

They should be spawning in the systems of the new onahole constellation.

[north torrent]

Thanks for the box-info. Forgotten that. OK, now its enough to pull one chest. The Milestones i did not do with two (one 60, one 62)

[west matrix]

all I see there is klingon armadas and hostiles (reds)

[kindred echo]

https://tenor.com/view/marie-antoinette-gif-18018557

Scopely looking at F2P and under lvl 40

[grizzled lintel]

you mean the wheener looking space ?

[finite otter]

It seems to be an issue on multiple servers. They're spawning on mine for some reason, not that anyone but whales have the directives to do them.

[slim sierra]

Hey folks -- lack of chimera spawn on several servers has been reported to Ops. I have: 193, 195, and 199

[hot sandal]

Can you add 168 please

[subtle vortex]

add 172 to your list

[west matrix]

add 187 to the list pls

[civic geyser]

None in vandris on 184

[frank pike]

Yeah, another Stingy action by Scopely. Normally they give you 1-2 starts for new things like this. Especially when the exchange for sourcing start directives doesn’t give you one or more per exchange.

Plenty of people out there with no starts for hours yet at least.

Way to go @heady moon

[finite otter]

This arc is definitely a massive kick in the teeth. They aren't even pretending to care about anything but raking in the cash before the end.

[grizzled lintel]

this aint issue of just this ARC we getting milked every ARC and getting bread crumbs in exchange , and its just going over and over and over.

[finite otter]

And getting progressively worse each time.

[silver parcel]

woo, too bad it didn't score on the slb

[severe marsh]

None in 401

[ancient wadi]

Ahh the days where Heroic SMS meant you were expected to spend money to participate fully. Now you cant even participate in normal SMS without spending money. Great new introduction to content. Here is new content that you cant actually even do

[frank pike]

It should never have been put out that way. This isn’t rocket science, despite how hard the dev teams seem to make putting out engaging content that doesn’t need a couple hundred dollars to prime the pump to be.

[unique jasper]

@heady moon non new arc related, can server 21 get its Misalup zone fixed...its been 4 major arcs and the zone still gives the error 200...

[grizzled lintel]

so a year lol? 😛

[silver parcel]

I have raised this issue. They'll either ignore it, issue a comp chest with some starts, or rename it to heroic, heh

[zenith portal]

Nothing to do today? Only Away Teams?

[sturdy umbra]

Store is fully functional

[unique jasper]

yep, if it wasn't for incusion (which we didn't have this month...) we gotta farm messages the old fasion way

[ancient wadi]

Open your wallet day

[timber sail]

do we know if the new targets behave as "hostiles"? - trying to think of best crewing...

[grizzled lintel]

ouch lol

[frank loom]

The problem is this is mentioned to the team every arc where there is a new thing. We always ask to have some directives to test at first. Shouldn’t have to ask or remind every time.

[grizzled lintel]

they do

[warm pivot]

what is needed is communication? how often will this invasion happen in a month? will it continue? how many times will we be able to turnin those fatu krey scraps. will the eventstore be closed in 3 days for good or will it continue? why no information?

[west matrix]

I wonder who did the math on this new stuff... the ONLY way to get the directives for the chimeras is that daily pull in event store... for which you need 340k of the scraps from fatu krey hostiles... 340k per day... and the event isn't up all the time... after ONE day of "kill fatu krey SLB event" I have more than 340 MILLION of those scraps... seriously... who is doing the math over at scopley when it comes to these kinds of things???

[ancient wadi]

They did mention event store is only up during invasions

[timber sail]

so standard hostile grinding crews best - like Janeway crew?

[warm pivot]

so totally useless and no way to stock up on directives, great story, bad feature

[grizzled lintel]

so you could buy the packs for it instead of plan in front and try to get something "cheaper" ..

[severe marsh]

How hard would it be to just announcement about why there were none in what seems to be a lot of servers

[warm pivot]

https://tenor.com/view/no-bugs-bunny-nope-gif-4095597578532971838

not a single cent this month

[echo schooner]

@queen jolt Do these new armardas count as “solo” so officers with specific solo armarda buffs work?

[tepid lotus]

There's faction favor that requires the invasion event, so I would imagine it'd be at least monthly.

[oblique prism]

Not sure why all the hate, this arc is great, we just had a solid 24hr grinding event that required zero purchases to be competitive. Also the new ship is great for Ops 40-45's and other than the issue with the chimera's not showing up and the scoreboard being wiped (which is not an arc runner isssue, its a live ops issue). I still think this is a great arc. The officers (other than Dane) are also weak, so you don't have to get FOMO if you don't unlock them. Plus we get alliance games later this month.

[grizzled lintel]

they count as hostiles so hostile crew

[tepid lotus]

You're lucky, I need 105M

[robust wren]

None on 54

[heady moon]

Hey!

[echo schooner]

Cheers, that is a bit rubbish though 😂

[autumn escarp]

this is straight trash, just like the past few arcs. Honestly this game is getting more and more lame every arc.

[grizzled lintel]

as the entire arc bud 😛

[heady moon]

Pinging you in dm for more info

[west matrix]

based on ops? ship tier of NESA Protector??

[tepid lotus]

Probably ops, I'm ops 61

[oblique prism]

https://tenor.com/view/the-big-lebowski-opinion-gif-25791527

[somber gulch]

none on 702 either

[grizzled lintel]

i think the only ARC in past 2 years that didnt have major issues was the one where they put freeboters and "only" extended the resarch tree , or am i wrong?

[sharp owl]

It’s clearly frustration directed at the wrong person, but could you please raise the fact that this “not enough currency to participate in new content” is a recurring problem and should not need CM interference?

[latent monolith]

still bugged

[tawdry rune]

laaaag

[inner aurora]

Just pull the Chimera events and give everyone first place already

[red stag]

How do you do the sms without tokens to do armadas?

[heady moon]

Working on it. Trying to follow up on the scoring and some servers not even seeing the Chimeras

[dull mason]

What in the world 🌍 am I supposed to spend the

👉🏼 419.7k 's of FatU-KrAY ScRap ON...

[grizzled lintel]

not "some" , most of them.

[unique jasper]

is the SLB only scroing in those specific systems?

[finite otter]

Buy the pack. It's an unlabeled Heroic event.

[latent monolith]

there are no Chimeras on my server,

[unique jasper]

but the description claims "our range is limited, there may be more hostiles in other systems"

[ancient wadi]

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ the only thing Scopely is worried about

[dusky cove]

Just to circle back to yesterdays conversation about testing and all that: I know OH/Simpauly can't help it as they're the messengers but when will we finally see some change? The theme if this year really is a blatant lack of any real testing causing perfectly avoidable issues like these with multiple displays of what is "make content frustrating so they spend" pushed over the border into the "tonedeaf content design" territory

[echo schooner]

So a hostile that needs directives and has a countdown timer is a hostile and not an armarda? That makes total sense 🤣 was going to try and plan a good crew to get my best score, but since it appears that they don’t score or exist in many places it is possibly pointless even trying 😏

[heady moon]

Which server?

[gilded turret]

🤣 the admin bot has impeccable timing. The message appeared mid GC argument

[grizzled lintel]

there is no testing bud, we are the testers .

[slim sierra]

We have a list going on MC2, Hammy

[warm pivot]

https://tenor.com/view/shut-down-press-button-shut-it-down-gif-17603164

[heady moon]

Yup saw that. Thanks Jess!

[mellow river]

There are none on 701 currently

[red stag]

So ive earned scrap in last event that I can’t spend because of cooldown timer?

[crude phoenix]

eh so for events we have spend events and more spend events ?

[arctic river]

Same with Server 95. None.

[latent monolith]

167

[slim sierra]

So this is interesting... this morning, it was all APAC missing the spawn... now I am seeing EU and US trickle in...

[crude phoenix]

we have chimera's

[mellow river]

is it the servers that finished the invasion already?

[grizzled lintel]

if you havent noticed in recent months 2/3rd of their events are paywalled.

[dusky cove]

That's the sad part actually, there is testing, the testing is just done under completely unrealistic circumstances/not in depth enough

[crude phoenix]

ppl wasted their directives because the thing dont score

[finite otter]

Spend it in the next instance of this event.

[slim sierra]

Valid question.

[shadow linden]

I thought this content was 40+. Aside from a maxxed for level Voyager with full extended warp range crew, no lower 40 ship can really reach these systems, so how is this an sms and not Heroic SMS

[dull mason]

Just when you thought the game settled down 🤣

[west matrix]

what do you mean by "this morning" ?? I am on an apac server and for us reset (start of event) was 40min ago

[quartz plover]

Very odd, completed SMS but no score for SLB

[slim sierra]

[heady moon]

Looking into it.

[severe marsh]

Our server finished the invasion earlier today. And have no chimeras fwiw

[finite otter]

No. We haven't finished the Invasion on 89 and we have Chimeras.

[crude phoenix]

DAY 2 and its already buried

[patent moat]

Most players on my server have put a 7 day Sheild and just given up on this invasion

[vague gull]

Not even close to finishing invasion and 0 chimera 😅

[glad pike]

Just imagine the storm once this gets fixed and then the people who can't complete the SMS w/o buying packs get their turn...

[dull mason]

Lucky you, it's 20 too 18:00 a few hours from bed 😴

[patent moat]

Maybe if there was insetive like is nocks all your ships down a tier or takes half the rss in your base so why? Why would we care about garbage rewards

[gilded turret]

The argument wasn't about the invasion, we finished that yesterday it was just comedy timing for the post

[long prism]

Hello @everyone

We are approximately 45 mins away from our quiz(<t:1723051800:F>) where we are giving away 5 free unlocks of the elite track of the battlepass ($20 version) for the August Arc!

The quiz has questions based on Galaxy Quest and will take place in the #quiz-channel of the STFC Officer Tool discord!

https://discord.gg/AJTjHThZZu

Please arrive in the channel 5 minutes before and read the rules and guidance I will be posting shortly!

Good luck and see you there.

[patent moat]

Lol

[grizzled lintel]

off to work , just one drop of info, the whales knew this gonna happen before it hit the rest of community, have a nice day.

[west matrix]

ok... so no chimeras... what the hell is everybody doing in here complaining about it??? off you go to work... better get busy on those fatu krey scouts if you wanna complete the IMS xD

[random stone]

Why would they do that? They only play for whatever arc is going on? They don't do anything else?

[patent moat]

Dalies lol

[ebon raven]

@heady moon ... no free directives for the chimera? Only one go from killing fatu...

[autumn escarp]

Are you guys kidding scopely? a RLB? I have to compete with multiple different servers for damage? can you be anymore stingy?

[finite otter]

The Invasion has nothing to do with it. We're not done and we have Chimeras.

[half shell]

https://tenor.com/FW5T.gif

[heady moon]

Pauly has raised this and we're following up.

[glad pike]

Not Hammy, but this appear to be the case. If RNG doesn't go your way, you can't complete the SMS w/o buying a pack

[severe marsh]

Seems servers that finished it didn't get the spawns

[queen jolt]

https://tenor.com/view/sad-cat-sunakook-tired-exhausted-gif-24687868

[ebon raven]

I dont think this is going very well.

[gilded finch]

well its lucky u.. a lot servers dont have the hostiles..

[west matrix]

ok... but you have chimeras for less than an hour ... out of a 48h event during which the invasion is supposed to be defeated by doing chimeras - if you would be done, that would be an amazing feat after 45min xD... but as you said you DO have them... so I wanna say it's at least possible xD... the rest of us is facing not defeating the invasion or do it by ONLY killing fatu krey xD

[glad pike]

That'll teach them to rub it in our faces 😄 😄 😄

[echo schooner]

Not a great prize based on the feedback of this arc so far, maybe offering a refund to players would generate more interest 😂

[heady moon]

https://tenor.com/view/sherlock-benedict-cumberbatch-you-dont-say-tea-gif-4862345

[gilded finch]

they will fix it... but certain timezones will lose out..

[jaunty wren]

Barely any directives lol

[finite otter]

Actually our Chimeras spawned before event reset. We've had them for well over an hour now. What's your point?

[glad pike]

Hammy, you're a joy to be around. I know your job is tough, but you take everything so well.

[civic geyser]

Any news on fixing the new ship ?

[autumn escarp]

You arent missing much, the events will be won by who ever spends the most.

[tawdry glacier]

we finished the IMS/Invasion in 5 hours and we got the chimera spawns.

[warm pivot]

https://tenor.com/view/boring-gif-18553963

Scopely is killing it again. Mada event that nobody has starts to compete in.

scopely still has no clue what and how the ims does

as it stands now we are NOT completing it

[autumn escarp]

ours is 55m, its rough. We had a guy in our alliance grind over 1k of them. he is burnt out on it lol

[queen jolt]

Hammy, that’s a cool badge! Where did you get it?

[glad pike]

105M at 61, and only 60+ are worth grinding. Guess where the 60+ hostiles are spawning reliably? A G6 hazard system :/

[finite otter]

Nice! I'm glad to see someone making progress! 👍

[wispy token]

2 posts in gc in the last 5hrs....ours is dead.

[west matrix]

my point is (ignoring the fact that you got them early) that it would be an AMAZING feat if you were DONE with your invasion after 45min (or 1h45min as it seems) ... you do have 47h to go and like you said you DO have the chimeras... so I wanna say it is at least possible for your server to defeat the invasion... the rest of us is looking at doing it by ONLY killing fatu krey right now xD

[dusky cove]

Our server is at 21,62/74,58 mil so yeah.....

workdays, not weekend

[crude phoenix]

https://i.imgur.com/OjbGXAO.png not even gonna make that

think half the server said screw that non st stuff

[queen jolt]

awww which server?

[slim jay]

Another joke of an arc

[finite otter]

Oh, sorry. I didn't understand. I don't know because the Chimeras are basically armadas (even though armada bonuses and abilities don't apply). The directives are too scarce for us to make much progress because people are reluctant to drop $99 on the directives pack.

[west matrix]

and scopley damn well knows why they made it a 48h event... so they can use the first 24h to fix whatever is broken xD

[dusky cove]

Except more people are just throwing in the towel and shielding with the current chimera issues.....

[dull mason]

Think it's Time to give up on the " Mini Arc.."

[north torrent]

hope in +/- 1h we should have the 3rd MS...

[sterile fox]

Cute

[crude phoenix]

yeah if we are not even getting much rewards to speak off.. the chimeras are not gonna save it i fear with us havint to buy the directives if we want to dent that

[limber remnant]

Will do eventually

[heady moon]

Hey! Are they not spawning in all systems on your server?

[finite otter]

I don't buy the server population thing. Even if it were correct, the scaling is flat out bad. Everyone should be roughly in the same boat as far as progress goes. People shouldn't have been done in the first hour.

[fast scarab]

None in 201 as well

[lapis marten]

Server 172 IMS

[outer oar]

None in 176 as well

[heady moon]

In all systems?

[ancient wadi]

I just dont honestly get who in design thinks creating all this new content then completely gating it so the playerbase cant even participate is a good design. You already added like a thousand dollars worth of stuff to buy. You could atleast make the content playable

[wooden drum]

Great event store, you can kill all the hostiles you want for the currency.. you just can't use it.. except once a day

[crude phoenix]

server population would be a very dumb way to do it with some having 10 alts

[fast scarab]

Yes

[sterile mountain]

So today's SMS is basically pay-to-win or am I missing something?

[gilded finch]

its not fair.. they event scoring should be stopped... on the apac servers we have a huge range of timezones... we are likely required to have to catch up a significant advantage... most of us have jobs and cant grind all the time...

[wispy token]

None in Apac period.

[subtle vortex]

Not a single one in any system on 172

[outer oar]

our players tried to clean out klingon armadas but they just respawn

[west matrix]

from our GC: feels a liiiiittle bit like taunting

[dull mason]

Each Server Needs there Very own

👉🏼 Mod to help with the game problems... Asap 👍🏼

[ebon raven]

Server 157

[limber remnant]

By the way. How many servers compete in the event? 😂

[heady moon]

Thanks! Passing on!

Server pop is what the devs told Hammy yesterday the metrics are. I just don't buy it.

[gray lintel]

Ship didn't even move b4 circle closed because armada start took 20s to appear

[dusky cove]

Perhaps it'd be an idea to just autocomplete todays SMS while it gets sorted instead of people just getting angrier?

[crude phoenix]

as i said really dumb if they count ppls alts as well

and ppl running multiple accounts

[glacial haven]

Trying to do this quest. I have mined over 10k 3* Gas to no luck.

[wooden drum]

Isn't it so wonderful to have a currency that's absolutely worthless

[slow mica]

lol

[gray lintel]

Why do they test these things in a no lag environment

[ancient wadi]

active accounts is what they use. SO yeah alts etc. are bad in that regard.

[crude phoenix]

they dont test at all

[timber sail]

did Janeway activate in your battlelog?

[west matrix]

because when this stuff goes live it doesn't spawn so there is no lag xD

[exotic kraken]

You have to press locate to find the system that you need

[gray lintel]

Lorca does, gg does... But 0 below deck officers work

[sharp pelican]

So, are these chimera hostiles basically solo armadas?

[weak cosmos]

I guess they forgot about the Cerritos events again?

[wispy token]

100 percent borked.

[crude phoenix]

second event timer

[gray lintel]

No they basicly a new type of hostile that to attack need new armada directives for but are not hostiles but entities

[weak cosmos]

Should just be one timer

[sterile mountain]

Level distribution?

[north torrent]

Whats that? Dont understand. That armadas i have done two - but no points there. And in the systems which are named there is nothing else.

[slim jay]

Keep adding extra grinds. It’s not making people quit.

[crude phoenix]

that was not it either.. we confirmed that amongst us

[vestal lava]

Why would server 35 Chimeras in Vandris system be rares, and chimeras in server 702 IN THE SAME SYSTEM be epics with twice the poer?

[gray lintel]

Slb is broken

[warm pivot]

clearly they dont play their own game... the longer you play the less you like to grind

[finite otter]

No armada bonuses or abilities seem to be working in them, though.

[gray lintel]

Rlb is every server works

[vestal lava]

It was previously disclosed that neither armada or hostile officer abilities work on these

[finite otter]

Thank you for some evidence! I knew it was nonsense. I just knew it.

[ancient wadi]

They are Hostiles being pushed as "armadas" so they can gate them to make money

[wispy token]

187 is a little bit higher but 92 is not a new or non assended server...took 90mins for 92 to finish...we are at ms 1.

[vestal lava]

@heady moon Is it a newlty reported bug that different servers have different chimera targets in the same system?

[gray lintel]

Ol ours is 78.73m

[wispy token]

How are you guys doing on it?

[glacial haven]

@exotic kraken it might be out of my warp zone then

[finite otter]

I'm sorry you got hit hard with this nonsense, too. I'm on 89 and I expect we're not going to top the second milestone.

[gray lintel]

73%

[iron steeple]

50s back to battling 60s in the Salvage SLB? Uggggg, how do we regress like toddlers.

[gray lintel]

To go

[iron steeple]

73% for us too

[wispy token]

78 to go

[slim jay]

Because people keep shelling out cash for this garbage

[west matrix]

we win... we are at 78% already... ohhhh waaait ...xD

[finite otter]

Whales only feel good about themselves when they punch down.

[iron steeple]

Just uninstall bro. The whining in this channel is unreal.

[finite otter]

Negative opinions are just as valid as positive ones.

[gray lintel]

Bet next trade in get 50 directives and have to wait again

But armada timer being 30s is stupid

[iron steeple]

I wouldn't call that an opinion. Saying "this is garbage" is an opinion. He has a hypothesis.

[finite otter]

Well, at least I can do Second Contact today. 🤷

[exotic kraken]

Use cadet Scotty to extend warp range

[gray lintel]

Allow same as solos but allow speedup

[split linden]

What the hell as happened to daily events. Today the first change was to one even the BP which was completed with 3 away teams rushed through. the second and we get the daily fed score event officer and station upgrades for steel. What a joke and of course all the grind from the new arc is for 14 3* uc crystal.

[slim jay]

Hmmm. Maybe if there was a quality product that wouldn’t be a problem?

[late ermine]

Still 0 chimera in 188

[stray pawn]

RLB’s; whoever came up with that genius idea 🤣

They will only learn when everyone quits.

An Rlb where some servers can't even participate in their own group

Also idk how can people even complete the chimera sms with 100 directives idk i am not lucky only got 100 total

[split linden]

<@&509691205798592532> I hope you guys are feeding this back to Bek because its just not good enough. I am guessing you wont be though cos its clear scopely dont care

Nothing. Just another currency to sit in your inventory for nothing.

Lol i got over 100 million and the daily pull for event is only 340k....

[split linden]

have u seen what they offered? I was expecting officer shard ship bps not 14 3* uc crystal

[compact grove]

Only if you bought the elite bp. If you didn't give them $20, you only get 30

[iron steeple]

Heck no

[slim jay]

I have a billion from yesterday. Should have about 800m left at the end of the event

[sterile mountain]

Hit in the 60+ systems and the chests are huge, like in MU. Much easier to complete and I was doing it with my Sanctus.

Great, so another Waste of time for player's Lower than L40 🤦🏼‍♂️

[rustic cradle]

dopes anybody know were the galaxy quest is or if its even out yet?

[sterile mountain]

Pike/Khan/E-Data or Lorca + Lower Decks and Odo below. Mission hostile crew, basically.

Honestly its understandable atleast g3s got the slb to save event currency

[dusky cove]

It would be lovely if arc/event designers did a live Q&A while they demonstrate the new loops and elaborate on the thought process behind them....

[dull mason]

As far as I know, no New movie 🎥 has begun filming

[late ermine]

Its expected that new content will be 40+

[timber sail]

scoring fixed yet?

man so i cant access the new content unless im higher level that sucks

Unless it's just a inventory Blocker 👉🏼 ( 💩 )

[late ermine]

Regional leader board maybe

[open arrow]

The new eye patch event store for us sub 40s is.... Not good

[sterile mountain]

Everything's gonna suck for sub-40s and they've basically said so. Gotta move up.

[late ermine]

They already said its 40+ content

[arctic river]

So, the cost of the Chermira starts at over $10 a battle. There is only one $100 pack in the store for only 8 starts and only 70 Chermira starts in the BP, I have already earned the BP and its not even one start (100 Chermira Starts). There is nowhere to exchange them. It seems a little bit unbalanced.

[warm pivot]

desperate attempts to find the 1 good thing within the burning dumpsterfire

[dusky cove]

that wouldn't be my goal, I'm mainly curious to see if the ongoing issues are a deliberate design choice by upper hands, if it's because they haven't the foggiest about the game they're designing or if they're just bad at their jobs or a combination of the above

[late ermine]

Most of players are already 40+ Anyway from 35 to 38 people already have lot of stuff Anyway why do you need more

[crude phoenix]

basically if u want new stuff level up

[arctic river]

I want to practice the Chermira battles like you would with any Armada. Im a little bit annoyed.

[hot nacelle]

https://tenor.com/view/galaxy-quest-snacks-derpy-gif-10835381

[ivory hull]

And pay apparently, because even in the low 40's i didnt pull enough tokens to start one armada

[late ermine]

I bet its not only they bad at it all they want 8s €€€ Anyway

[compact grove]

Remember back when Scopley would give a gift chest of free directives to help get folks started with a new feature?

Now it's $100 to finish an sms

[white saffron]

Time to all abandon this game and go out to meet all those ”aliens” that wonder there

[ancient wadi]

and unless you have voyager or NX you aren't going to have the warp range to reach them. Warp 500 to even get to them

[slim smelt]

i wont even bother to try

I’m guessing I’m not the only one that doesn’t have enough directives to finish the sms?

Got full 80 😂maybe can do 1 in this event if there is one in system as pretty much only klingon armadas

[echo schooner]

Ha ha thought process, you make me chuckle 😂

[late ermine]

No one does apac don't even have armada to do lol

[white saffron]

Finish the sms? If only even could launch 1 atleast 🤣

[ancient wadi]

Scopely looks at the money monopoly makes and says yous hould be doing the same star trek

[finite otter]

Reportedly, Monopoly Go treats its players a lot better.

[arctic river]

I really think in order to balance out the playability they need to make the Chermira Starts accessible like other the armada starts; through earning, trade-in and event awards. Also a $19.99 pack would be nice.

[crude phoenix]

things actually somewhat work for a change but the events are still bad

[wraith depot]

So let me see if I have this straight. Your big invasion event, this big event with 2 solos and a sms and a rlb.......is do armadas no one has directives to do?
This is your big thing? Are you friggin kidding me ? 😀

[hasty hemlock]

Enjoy the new galaxy quest content *!

*participation not guaranteed

[heavy idol]

I can't help but think they'd generate more income if the game was working perfectly and more people would play/buy the battlepass etc.

[late ermine]

I won't lie monopoly does way better with money atleast you get something spending few 100$ on stfc gets you no where

[finite otter]

And they're technically not armadas so none of your armada officers work.

[late ermine]

I have spend more on monopoly 😅

[crude phoenix]

just use 5 riker and janeway or similair if u have em

torres works below too

[finite otter]

That would suggest I have the directives necessary. 🤣

[crude phoenix]

once u do.. u have many pulls to go this arc i guess ?

if they run this multiple times

ppl that dont spend on this event get scrap anyway though

[pastel ridge]

I’m curious for anyone who has a vi’dar how long does it take to fill up the cargo capacity with nanoprobes

[teal sphinx]

Anyone having targeting issues

[civic geyser]

If they where actually spawning I would try 🤣

[finite otter]

I actually had enough directives for one run. That I did before checking the fine print. So that didn't work out. Like most people I'm probably stocked for years on the scrap materials.

[pastel ridge]

cuz I’m trying to optimize my attacks so I’m not spending hours trying to max it out

[crude phoenix]

did u check the hazard systems too ?

yesterday we didnt have em the non hazrd ones as well

[civic geyser]

Ops 40 so can only hit the first system

[finite otter]

If you're spending hours filling the hold, it might be time to move up to harder Probes.

[pastel ridge]

but then I can’t max it out

[slim smelt]

this is the worse arc i think by far

[pastel ridge]

on the 25s I can get the 97k capacity but on the 26s I can only get around 30k

[crude phoenix]

even our 42 system has em now .. yesterday they were klingons so something is very borked

[pastel ridge]

I want to try to get my vi’dar tiered up to move on to higher probes but apparently 520k isn’t enough to reliably take down 26s

[finite otter]

That's what happens when you move up. It's a matter of deciding what is more valuable to you: inert nanoprobes or time.

[frank pike]

Scopely S-M-R-T

[graceful sage]

How do I have 0 points in the SLB when I completed the sms and it uses the same scoring?

[pastel ridge]

💀

[mellow river]

#⭐-official-announcements message

[frank pike]

Because Scopely Kwality kontrol is at its finest

[pastel ridge]

ig I’ll just have to bite the bullet and farm to capacity cuz I want to get my vi’dar tiered up as soon as I can

[mellow river]

All of it is borked today 😦

[graceful sage]

They said Chimera Hunt event. This is Chimera Salvage. But i guess all of them are messed up

[mellow river]

We still don't even have chimeras

[pastel ridge]

I need about 7k more charges nanoprobes to level up the railgun

[finite otter]

Unfortunately it's a balancing act, like a lot of things in the game.

[pastel ridge]

so about 3 days

I just wished the conversion rate wasn’t so inflated

[civic geyser]

Crystal will probably end up bottlenecking you not the nanaprobes

[pastel ridge]

110k for 3,000 charged nanoprobes

[pastel ridge]

I have about 1k g3 uncommon crystal

[finite otter]

It gets worse every tier.

[pastel ridge]

idk if that’s enough

yeah so I’ve seen

I’m guessing the next tier is 3k per chest and the rate is even more inflated

ig it’s worth it tho the vi’dar is a really good ship

[night frigate]

I am assuming the event is broken as I see nothing Chimera related around

[tidal edge]

so we getting compensated for the slb restarting yet?

[pastel ridge]

lol

[night zinc]

[DSE] CaptainDanbo — Today at 1:39 PM
"Please check your internet connections and try again." -- Corporate-speak for "Our app is as buggy as a swarm of gnats but we want you to think it's your fault."

[prisma mulch]

So, whoever bought Chimera Destroyers (directives) Got robbed cause they don't exist anymore?

⬆️ ⬆️ ⬆️

[pastel ridge]

1,145

I have 1,145 g3 uncommon crystal

I still don’t know if that’s enough

hopefully I get more from the event

[pastel ridge]

I’m on t4 rn

idk if that helps probably not

[civic geyser]

That’s total costs

[pastel ridge]

1.2m charged nanoprobes

nice

[steep aspen]

so I see there's a new, surprisingly cheap, pack for Lt Picard, is this the only sourcing we should expect?

[civic geyser]

That’s for the Talios 🤣

[silver parcel]

Given how it was crickets on sourcing prior to this, i'd say this is the best we can expect

[pastel ridge]

yeah I’m not there yet lol

[steep aspen]

at least there's 30 days to see if something else appears

[pastel ridge]

@civic geyser is the talios level locked?

[silver parcel]

Funny thing, i don't even see the lt. picard pack

[civic geyser]

Ops 35 with a maxed Vidar

[pastel ridge]

oh that’s it

ok

[fading helm]

I'd admire Scopely more if they just shut down, did maintenance and remove Galaxy Quest and said sorry

[pastel ridge]

I thought it would be like the franklin with the cells it needs

that’s another pain to level up

[grand nacelle]

where do i go to get directives to start a Chimera solo armada?

[earnest raven]

Event store, Fatu-Grey Keys exchange

[pastel ridge]

I like that name lol

great quote from a great episode

[random stone]

If they shut down for a day, couldn't they just fix it? Or just fix the Chimera part at least

[finite otter]

And $$$. You get 8 attempts for $99.

[tidal tulip]

Testing in production... Again... I feel like basic stuff like this is brolen every single arc. Do they test anything before releasing it?

[grand nacelle]

so it takes two days Fatu-scrap exchanges for one armada start?

[gilded finch]

can we get an update whether they are acknowledging the missing chimera.. they instantly posted the slbs are not scoring..

[earnest raven]

Pain right?

[grand nacelle]

And thankyou

[tender badge]

Well it seems i’m not welcome to participate in this arc, i’ve done my dailies, i’ll put the game aside for today 😊👍

[civic geyser]

I’d rather get a acknowledgment that the new ship is broken

[dusky cove]

How is it broken?

[steel sapphire]

Why gate the directive that makes no sense for new content

[late pawn]

@heady moon do we get credit for already spent ?

[graceful sage]

@heady moon chimera salvage slb broken too?

[crude phoenix]

well see that pack in the store ? it s too make money

[civic geyser]

Mining speed don’t think is working correctly would be better sending a envoy

[dusky cove]

Wrong question to be honest, when it comes to Scopely the answer to nearly any question starting with why is "Money".

[steel sapphire]

I get that but at least a starter chest to try it out would be cool

[pastel ridge]

what

[prisma mulch]

DONTTTTTTTTTTTTTT, YOU WILL GET ROBBED. They do not exist anymore, all disappeared

[pastel ridge]

what r u talking about

[crude phoenix]

guess it needs to be high tier to benefit from that..

[pastel ridge]

oh wrong ping lol

[gilded finch]

i think the ship is not getting the mining boost of the research... my selkie can mine @ 1.6mill per hr... while the new ship is only 30k per hr

[steel sapphire]

Don’t even know which crew are best to use it’s ridiculous

[crude phoenix]

compare the miner component on the ships ? also its not a survey and doesnt get the bonus from the mirror research

[stray pawn]

@heady moon nothing has changed. Restarted game and RLB is still there and no other events seem to have changed either 🤷‍♂️. Server 135. I’m showing as only one from my server within the other 99 slots filled by multiple servers

[sage palm]

where are these chimera...i go to the systems in the event and just see klingons

[late ermine]

@heady moon i still see earning 😅

[charred canopy]

Chimera Salvage SLB is not scoring for me. I got about 3200 Sarris Dominion Salvage for battling one of the Chimeras, but it still shows zero for me.

[gilded finch]

it should get that boost... otherwise no point of using the ship for mining even though it is being sold as that..

[brisk pulsar]

This is a mess

[brisk pulsar]

Who wanted this?

[silver parcel]

according to the announcement, it's a spend event not earn

[chilly cypress]

@heady moon any chance we can get extra starts one start for a leaderboard is not enough.

[inner aurora]

My guess is that they actually haven't taken down or updated anything yet

[graceful sage]

Same here

[late ermine]

The scopely accountents 😂

[proud verge]

So if I'm correct, the Chimera are not hostiles as we were to believe, but armada targets?

[quartz plover]

They are neither

[silver parcel]

armada targets that you cannot use armada officers on

1 ship, solo

[late ermine]

They are not even armada i think...

[silver parcel]

10 rounds

[quartz plover]

Pure hostile crew does not work, pure armada crew does not work

[stray pawn]

They are neither

[civic geyser]

If you can actually find one

[proud verge]

And they barely gave us anything to battle them but do launch an event for it

smh....

[quartz plover]

So far Officers and BD abilities of the Voyager crews seems to work properly

[proud verge]

I would love to get some directives for them

[brisk pulsar]

Directives please

[proud verge]

Not have some roulette that you either get full or half

Especially when the event is only a day after launch....

[kindred echo]

Got the event store to spend eyepatches for under lvl 40, what a joke the rewards were, expected nothing less

[echo schooner]

I assume scopley have shares in dumpster fires, it seems to be the order of the day 🤯

[gilded finch]

why bother mining with ship designed to mine raw trel

[quartz plover]

<@&509690795536941056> any update on the Chimera Salvage - SLB not scoring?

SMS completed but SLB - 0

[inner aurora]

How/when am I going to be comped for that damage that got wiped off the board on the RLB?

[civic geyser]

Because it’s my best ship at my lvl

[long prism]

that power is not mine lol

[latent wharf]

Scopley just want to double down on annoying the fan base

[gilded finch]

did you score in the lvl 60 system... that 1 is missing in the slb list

[echo schooner]

Next crossover is Dora the explorer

[quartz plover]

I defeated 3 lvl46 and 1 lvl52

[proud verge]

How did you get the dirs for it already? It's only a day?

[quartz plover]

$£€

[proud verge]

Well they should name the damn event an heroic then because f2p barely has any dirs to do them

[silver parcel]

it's a spend event, not earn

[inner aurora]

Go look at the official announcements

[night frigate]

You should have 200 dirs ( 100 for a start ) for free

[proud verge]

From where?

Because I have 0

[raven escarp]

next arc.

[night frigate]

Sorry, I mean 100 for free

200 if you bought the small Battlepass

[quartz plover]

Official annaouncement talks about CHimera Hunt - SLB ... not Chimera Salvage - SLB

[night frigate]

From refinery, events etc etc

I have only purchased small BP, and I have 200 directives

[proud verge]

I only see 30 on free path & 70 on buy path

And my refinery gave 50

I like how it gives half a pull

Really encouraging (not)

And technically it's not even a refinery since it's an event store

[inner aurora]

Typo

[devout oriole]

Some uncomfirmed reports of getting 0 in event store pull. Just fyi

[night frigate]

Yes, I just saw it is only a 'chance' for dirs

[heady moon]

Are you still not seeing Chimeras?

[proud verge]

That also is dumb

[night frigate]

Ignore everything I said in that case

[arctic river]

We have them Hammy. Thank you for checking in ❤️

[clear fractal]

Actually the 30 dirs the BP gives is totally useless, you will never use 30.

And we can't see chimeras.

[night frigate]

This entire ARC is a joke

[slow mica]

https://tenor.com/view/austin-powers-dr-evil-how-gif-19601238

[brisk pulsar]

Yep. This is going about how I thought it would

[night frigate]

And so will be the next Crossover

Because no matter what happens during this ARC

[raven escarp]

Dont you love hello kitty? 😦

[night frigate]

SCopely will say... It is a success

[quartz plover]

After game restart - still says EARN

[night frigate]

The community were happy

STOP LYING SCOPELY

[hot sandal]

Still non 168

[twilit lintel]

finally

[tulip trellis]

Is there a reason we arent getting the IMS on 707?

[gilded finch]

scopely on mission chimera

[heady moon]

Working on it!

[night frigate]

So I hear no PvE crew versus Chimera and no armada crew also?

[hot sandal]

@heady moon appreciated

[flint ruin]

Are these not-armadas on the weak side…? They seem on the weak side.

[raven escarp]

I thought my idea was nice, Hammy can you pitch it? 🙂

[tulip trellis]

Also, really curious why there are events for OPS 10-24 and 40+ but nothing for 25-39. hmmmm. 🤔

[heady moon]

This doesn't feel like a success...

[wispy token]

There is no scores at all on the apac RLB...just restarted ect.

[night frigate]

At the end, Scopely will brand this ARC a success no matter what happens after 28 days

Which will then entice them to do more crossovers

[gilded finch]

i dont think the code got deployed on the apac servers...

[magic glen]

https://tenor.com/view/portal-still-alive-glados-gif-4864846162289904539

[night frigate]

Which is a bad thing

If there is a 2nd Crossover, I have already said I am going to quit the game

1st Crossover is bad enough... Nothing is even working

[tacit herald]

Listen if the game doesn’t work for you stop playing it’s that simple

[night frigate]

So a 2nd Crossover will be the end for me

[clever raft]

how to score

new hostile not registered

[gilded finch]

none on 201 server

[wispy token]

Who knows? ...clearly not scopes

[slim jay]

You realize that if everyone who was mad at the game right now quit, they’d have to shut down the servers?

[tacit herald]

Hey at @heady moon hope you are well (clearly busy) lol

[crude phoenix]

i cant say... the strongest are beyond a warp block :p

[steep aspen]

at least we have an event store now, sad as it is

[round trail]

Something wrong here

[heady moon]

Thanks! And yup! Things are keeping me busy today!

https://tenor.com/view/hamster-flying-running-wheel-gif-26147083

[slow mica]

@heady moon I started a chimera mada ….. then got the “lost internet connection” couldn’t log back in and it ate my directives …. Since there no battle log of the mada even happening

[flint ruin]

What’s not working?

I’m lost….

[tacit herald]

I’ve been watching this very sentiment for going on 5 years it will shut down when it shuts down

[woeful compass]

@heady moon so I start an chimera and my ship doesnt join.... nice....

[gilded finch]

putting him on the job

[weak cosmos]

Only thing you can count on Scopely for is poor programming. 🤦‍♂️

[tulip trellis]

Its less of a store and more of a street vendor with a blanket full of trinkets.

[charred canopy]

These problems have nothing to do with the arc being a crossover. Put Star Trek names on all the pieces and the problems would be the same.

[crude phoenix]

@heady moon any chance of the ims also getting a nerf ? ppl are not really into it having to farm a few hundred thousand K of hostiles

and no chimeras dont score enough with ppl nit getting directives

[slow mica]

A few hundred k lol …… that slacker number’s

[wispy token]

or chimeras 😂

[slim jay]

Khajit has wares…

[fallow sage]

Yay for being sub 40 and having nothing to do to earn any currencies to make me wanna ops up lol man only having away team event available is kinda...meh

[tulip trellis]

😂 If you have coin.

[magic glen]

The mods at the start of every arc.

[crude phoenix]

that is if everyone is hitting 55-60 wich we all know is not everyone lol

[woeful compass]

Also I beat 2 56 as I cant reach the 60s and I cant even open a single chest

[tacit herald]

Mostly people just want to feel heard. If YOU dont like it don’t play thousands of new paying players every day. Across all the servers

[crude phoenix]

could open the extra value one with two armadas

[woeful compass]

I cant

[woeful compass]

Am 58 and can only so 56 cause of warp

[crude phoenix]

that was with 2 56's ..that completely exploded

[slim jay]

Sure. That’s why servers are getting emptier and emptier

[woeful compass]

What ops are you then

[crude phoenix]

59.. the 56 system is also my max

[woeful compass]

How then, I got 4.5k including the starter chest from 1 armada

What crew?

[proud verge]

Soooo, only way to complete this sms is $$$?

Especially considering we're only 1 day in the arc

[crude phoenix]

https://i.imgur.com/SWHHQ6R.jpeg did u open the survival chests ?

[proud verge]

Okay, didn't collect my chest

[woeful compass]

Thats what I meant by starter chests, only 850 for me

[crude phoenix]

strange

[woeful compass]

Okay nvm

2 different kinds of chests

[crude phoenix]

😄

[woeful compass]

Soooo confusing

Thanks

[warm venture]

nope...only killed 1 lvl 46 chimera

[woeful compass]

@heady moon can I get a refund for that lost armada, cause the game did not work?

[warm venture]

did you open the survival chest? it contained 14k loot for me

[slow rock]

Did you know an artificial intelligence can become inbred if an artificial intelligence feeds an artificial intelligence information it becomes wildly inaccurate and unintelligible

[night frigate]

LOLOLOL

I can't tell if you are serious or not

Refund? Scopely?

LOLOL

[woeful compass]

They gave out refunds when formadas were broken cause of error bug🤷

[thorny wasp]

best we can do is 20 rations

[night frigate]

Server wide

Not player based

[proud verge]

Forgot to claim my chest 🤪

[slim jay]

Refunds not allowed. At least that’s what support rudely said after the game stole 2.75m lat from me. Then they just ignored every ticket I put in after that. “Support” does not mean the same thing to scopely. Just there to make sure the credit card reader is working. 😂

[woeful compass]

Player based mate

[warm venture]

it's difficult...an alliance mate just complained, why my chest hat 14k in it while his had only 750 🙈 he did not open the survival chest but the winning chest 🤣

[thorny wasp]

didnt say if it was player support or support for scopely

[woeful compass]

Its all very confusing

[echo schooner]

Chimera wrecking RLB, 97 players from the other server and only 3 from our server suggests that there is an issue with the event

[proud verge]

Well we should be happy that order is not reversed

[slow isle]

eugh the cooldown when pulling NSEA-Protector shards is so annoying

[heady moon]

Following up on that....

[acoustic orbit]

@heady moon

How do you run an event where you need to have directives to start the object in the event then limit it to a CHANCE to pull enough directives to compete in the event?!? Also, what is the sourcing for the directives other than the event store? Is it an “upcoming feature”?

[echo schooner]

https://tenor.com/view/you-shall-not-pass-gandalf-wizard-gif-13584855

The event plan

[woeful compass]

Thanks👍

[oblique prism]

I think the armada will go away after the arc, when they come back it will probably be part of another events store where you can get directives

[frank pike]

It’s called Scopely being Scopely.

This isn’t about you having fun, it’s about them getting you to buy packs out of frustration.

[crude phoenix]

battlepass of today paid gave 1 armada to run

[frank pike]

See, like that. Solution is spend money

[acoustic orbit]

I have a member who has over 600 million scrap and can only pull 1 chest every 24 hours…

[slim jay]

More people on discord than the game. 🤣

[gilded finch]

also it is not a perpetual event store... so when the invasion ends the store will go away

[civic geyser]

Any news on if this is working as attended @heady moon

[slow rock]

So is this like a birthday party The invasion it's going to be a surprise when it happens 😂

[crude phoenix]

it will run multiple times i hope.. else u get absolutely nothing

[slow rock]

☕👀 they're invading me multiple times

[acoustic orbit]

I understand that, my question is what is sourcing for after the event store?

For the protector, directives, etc…

[slow rock]

☕👀 I think I need to go into my bomb shelter

[gilded finch]

its going to be similar to the monthly borg event which runs for 4 days every month now

[flint ruin]

Huh, the new ship has 4 hour cooldown on bps…?

[slow rock]

I like the Borg better they have a good health plan

[acoustic orbit]

So f2p path 2 years then for the protector?

[heady moon]

I'm hearing that it is working as intended but I'm going to be discussing further with the team tomorrow.

[frank pike]

Yup. No getting g the ship free-ish anywhere near the end of this arc.

Remember the days of lightweight gimmick ships having at least half the bps for free?

[civic geyser]

Thx

[slow rock]

It's a lot more fun and discord right now

[gilded finch]

You can use these screenshots as well. Selkie vs the trel a mining ship...

[acoustic orbit]

You’re not wrong… game is/has become not a game anymore

[slow rock]

Lol yes it's like I'm at work

[frank pike]

Money so very well spent

[slow rock]

☕👀 boss comes in with a bunch of paperwork saying he has to have this done before the day is over on the schedule

[gilded finch]

hand him your phone and tell hom to grind the ims for you while you do the work

[flat knoll]

NSEA protector mining boost is broken nova 140k with 3300% and Nsea with 80000% is at 43k

[slow rock]

Lol I was talking about the bosses in the game my boss is at work are pretty reasonable

[slow rock]

https://tenor.com/view/hysterical-laughter-laughing-gif-25735842

[flat knoll]

NSEA protector mining boost is broken nova 140k with 3300% and Nsea with 80000% is at 43k

[gilded finch]

it seems its not getting the mining research boost from the mu tree

[flat knoll]

also ship boost is not working as its closer to like 1000% mining speed so like 600% base +some boost

[warm venture]

the research only works on surveyor class ships 🙈

[jagged valley]

HarmiusDeath getting angry

[stuck reef]

He’s level 17. What’s he going to do, book it to 39 and realize he can’t do anything to them?

[heady moon]

Yeah. Saw the same thing with my Beatty. Like I said, I'll be discussing tomorrow.

[stuck reef]

Want to see him try anyone in my server. He would get dumpstered the second anyone could hit him

[flint ruin]

Well, a 4 hour cooldown isn’t going to slow anybody down, when the events roll over daily anyway. Clearly this is to goose inter-day engagement, which for a lot of us has all but ended.

I don’t even know what this ship does, lol.

[civic geyser]

One of the reasons I bought the ship was the mining speed

[stray pawn]

@heady moon , @queen jolt . Despite what the announcement says nothing has changed?

[flint ruin]

Always is, lol.

[warm venture]

the protector does not benfit from the research.....

[mortal elk]

Guessing you're not on a pre ascension server though? 🤣

[jagged valley]

He is level 17 how long?

[mortal elk]

But yes, wrong place for server drama 😅

[proud verge]

1?

[flint ruin]

That’s…high-larious

[jagged valley]

When did your server get 60 ops unlocked

[mortal elk]

Usually takes around 4 to 6 months, 404 is not close yet

For 50*

[jagged valley]

We have multiple 39s

[jagged valley]

He has only played 3 days

🤦

[mortal elk]

7 or so, and most of the top 100 players are low 20s

You've got time yet

[hot sandal]

Chimeras spawning on 168 cheers hammy 🍻🍺

[jagged valley]

Im in top 100 with ops 20 🤣

22*

Now i got acsess to Swarm grinding 😭

[plain seal]

well if my math is right. There are 102,644 accounts out of 230,309 are OPS 35 and lower

[pallid marsh]

Here's an idea. Maybe, just maybe. Hear me out. FIX. THE. GAME. before releasing new content, yeah?

[fathom flower]

There is no up front money in them fixing the game

[iron steeple]

That would be bad business practice. Gotta spend money to make money.

[slim jay]

Also no motivation to fix when folks still spend for broken.

[fathom flower]

What they have always failed to grasp is in the long term they lose players by not fixing the game. But they will find others to fill our shoes that are willing to spend if we walk away

[spiral coral]

Should there be a cd on the new ship bps? I've got to wait 22hrs to open a chest someone in my alliance said they have 15min cd

[plain seal]

cant keep new players if your not giving them content

[patent moat]

@heady moon what are the redeem codes for GQ arc?

[fathom flower]

And yep people can't seem to not spend on a broken product, then throw a fit at home depot if the grill they bought doesn't work

[silver parcel]

GQ5

Levels: 10-39
2x Nesmith
2x Laliari
2x Alexander
11250x Loyalty Points (syndicate)\

GQ7

Levels: 40-70
2x Nesmith
2x Laliari
2x Alexander
125 MU Research Dust R5

GALAXY

laliari avatar

QUEST

laliari avatar (same one)

[iron steeple]

Also bad business practice. Shoeing people who regularly spend $20 vs HOPING a new person will come in and spend $100 ain't it.

[gloomy portal]

Most boring Arc, ever, hey game progress developer stop smoking crack and become creative.

[latent wharf]

Selected the armada and the ship didn't move

[fathom flower]

It is, and I been saying it for 6 yrs but I don't spend a quarter mil + a yr so I'm not listened too

[latent wharf]

Now i've losy my only directives

[patent moat]

Thank you

[serene drum]

Scopely is not getting much money from our server💰💩
