It doesn't seem right that Mega Cube starts today at all. Did $copely forget CoW is a 3 day event?
Synergy will polish off cow while killing probes depending on ops
Solo event - NO LB
Not really the point...at all.
My admiral announced that she is collecting from retrieving by hitting borg probes.
I'm collecting points for some event called "Retrieving" lol
retrieving event is best event
yep... I usually do a borg run to complete CoW... today 2 birds 1 stone
still retrieving here ...
Don't worry the SMS events today guys. One is recruit event and the other is the Armada event that you should always finish on day 3 with your Mega Cube 10 tickets
its fairly quiet on #⭐-official-announcements and #⚡-mod-announcements so i dont think Scopely knows about it yet
It’s been escalated
No 12 step work around for this?
Working for our server now
So even for a None-Event day their server choked! 🤮
Lol still no announcement
a simple "we know and are working on" goes a long way in customer service. And they could event post pics of what the different ops should be seeing
Its also interesting to note the event store for the Borg is better then this month's arc store. RIP
Why would there be any announcement? This is the daily 12 O'Clock thing! 😂
What is up with the extreme lag all of a sudden
All of a sudden? You mean after 4 years of lag?
been lagging for an hour plus already
just need to maintain radio silence and it will work fine
How is that this game gets so broken on COW and Borg events? They have been running these for years. Surely they have bugs worked out
been like this since they first release it and never fix it
I been busy on discord chat sense before event reset so just came on to this lag which for me is all of a sudden
my cherritos event point logged in quite late and for borg ones just a bit of delay
It's almost like they should have ALL the stuff that works fine (decently etc.) and put it on a server and DON'T TOUCH IT!!! Then when they add new crap in and it doesn't work they can easily revert back to NON broken server etc.
well tell that to @abstract gate
so what is the stuff that works fine?
What you want me to do 👀
LOL that's why i put "decently" in parenthesis haha
The devs not him/her lol
fix the retreiving part for borg events i played since day one and its never been fixed @abstract gate
I can barely fix Discord my friend.
trust me some of us played from day one until now
Now Android is crashed and won't load
was discord bought by Scopely ?
Can you imagine how quickly scopely development team would be fired if they worked for a different software company and constantly produced shotty work like they do here.
Nah, Microsoft tried.
How to score on Borg solo LB?
kill probes
i think it's just killing probes
Hostiles aren't scoring there and nanoprobes spent didn't work either
or armada?
do you get double points for boosting too if i remember correctly?
That works for milestone not in leaderboard
i mean borg armada
ohhh it's armadas
The solo LB is armadas?
thats what i recall
i'd post a pic for you if i could see the details!!!!
asking my alliance
as far as i remeber its usually armada and spend mats
The solo leaderboard is armadas, with points for directives spent. uncommon armadas are the most efficient use of directives
but with the bad lag i suggest waiting until its stable enough
wonder how hard it would be for the devs to make a discord channel that they post event details (screenshot of what we have to do etc or whatever) for when crap like this happens @pseudo rune
However, there is a solo milestone for borgmadas on the 3rd day of the event, so I suggest saving your directives until then
@balmy coyote think eco is having a huge headache
almost everyone on gc been calling him
How do I take part in the event??? Scamly at its best. Restarted already!
he's off today HAHA
no wonder panic retired lol
lol
Day 1 - Probes. Day 2 - Probes. Day 3 - Borgmadas. The 3 day events are a borgmada solo leaderboard and a borgmada/probe alliance leaderboard
@clever timber I have nothing showing there either
random thought, when are we going to get bigger borg probe hostiles?
stfc.space/events is your friend for situations like this
ask @pseudo rune or @abstract gate
Sup?
this thought @abstract gate
What’s the slb? Anyone know?
Oh right. Yeah, I’ve asked about this a few times now.
Here is the Borg AMS SS
Be nice to make some of these grinds less painful.
Thanks!
NICE @clever timber thanks!!
at least its showing for some of us
What am I, chopped liver? Need to write a bot that auto replies with the schedule every minute apparently
how about pinning it @untold pendant
well how many other companies do people keep putting time and money in when everything is crap?
I keep saying it's all a social experiment to see how much we put up with before leaving
I posted both what every day of the event requires, as well as the 3 day events. I also provided resources for where you can find the information for yourself in the future. If all of that is still insufficient, I can't help you 😂
Stfc.space need like 2 click
0 clicks
What are the borg events
Today . Still reteieving
Thank you, very much appreciated 😊👍
how do you kill the tactical probes if you dont have access to token systems (no vidar)?
ummm
If you do not have any transwarp cells, you do not get to kill tactical probes
if you dont have vidar you might as well quit now. VIdar is the most essential ships for easy faction credit grinding
If you somehow did have the cells but no vi'dar, you might as well not bother because sweet heavens would that be a lot of probes to kill
So I have no events 🤷♀️
What level?
Is there a reason why two of 11 is not in the event store this time around? It was last time
i see two of 11 at the store
Weird he is not in the event store for me it's completely skipped.
Anyone know what the SLB needs. I assume it's Armadas and Megacube?
I already cleared my cache twice.
OP42, and i don't see Two in my store either.
And I am level 33 so it shouldn't be level locked either
No telling if it’s the same though
It's the same, it's always the same
This person has posted a great summary of the previous Megacube cube events assuming no changes. https://stfc.johnwsiskar.com/return-of-the-mega-cube/
Scopely sort it out you useless bunch of tools.
Is there a way to get borg armada directives besides using borg war funds to buy them from the event store?
The cash shop usually has an offer for them, and the MC versions too.
Will they be giving them out like last time? Also, why only 15 of the refit? Seems like that's a thing now with limiting when you need way more to actually get the item.
Lack of warfunds was the limiting factor for me, not the 15 limit. But no idea on why they have it.
I think the best part of that is I don’t remember getting enough to actually get all 15. Maybe 10, unless your alliance is winning everything.
Oh, because you can buy more in the store. Silly me.
I save them up that way I can use them later for stuff, but the limit for 15 of the refit is absurd. It's the same with limits on how many officers shards you can get.
it is hard to get ore than 15 shards F2P anyway
An announcement for an announcement right up there with a meeting for a meeting
And you won’t get the info on the official discord. Go listen to this podcast instead…
not just any podcat, one that last 2h with 5min of signal
Players: "When are incursions scheduled?"
$copely: "Look over here! A new CM!"
sssshhhh - hopefully they'll forget them!
I hope this is just the first of several message they publish today
At this point we can only hope!
they have a limited communication budget, no more than 1 message per week. For the rest, go listen to a podcast.
new community manager > retrieving...
So a new community manager is more important than updating users on the network/live ops issues affecting many/all servers. Awesome job Scopely 🤦♂️
I'm guessing with Borg events a day early and overlapping with CoW (thats not normal right?) it's to make room for Incursions to run this weekend
let's hope not. if they follow the last schedule, it would mean incursion and borgmarda at the same time for either US or EU on Saturday
It's Wednesday. I do hope incursion will be next week
Anyone got a list of events on? Game crashes every time I try to see them
Here @spring perch . was Posted by another player
Is there cow and cerritos events too?
Yes no change from previous cow and Cerritos events. Kill reds
Cheers
Not seeing “Remove lag” pack in the store. Is it $100?
€400@stable escarp
Inflation
So no incursion announcement?
be sure to read with the dripping sarcasm
Slow down killer, we got two announcements today!
We hired a new CM to assist with communication...no incursion info…no acknowledgement of server issues today…
can anyone let me know if Incursions are happening this weekend or next? I need to plan time with family but, don't want to miss incursion. (Hammar beat me to it)
Supposed to drop a 2 week calendar today. Hopefully not in invisible ink.
thank you.
It won’t be this weekend
thanks!
An announcement by Bek is being made. Should be out soon.
borg event store ends same time ALB does... guess won't be using those tokens until next time...
It’s been raised 🖖
So what did Scopely screw up this time? Incursion hinted at and we get the mega cube! One of the worst events ever.
how do we find out who we're up against?
@pseudo rune @modest frost real faction hunt during incursions???
Who was your XSLB against for incursion prep? Because that is who
And incursions during a weekday is terrible imo
I haven't been able to log in all day with game crashes.. so I'll have to check tomorrow.
Every mat spend slb should be paired with an sms so people can get SOMETHING for their effort
dates just announced folks
Is there a sub SLB or event in place of the Terror SLB?
so nice of scopley to merge my server with one day notice.. not give us our merge gifts and now take away our incursion and ability ti f2p a mantis
of course its scopley they dont plan anything right
I think they put you on bye week because of the merge, to let you time to settle. Bye week are rorating so everyone will have 1 month without event store too. No luck you are on the first list
the merge consisted of one alliance and 37 people 😅
Kudos to @modest frost for at least giving us a schedule for the next 7 days. Much better than the compete silence we've gotten the past week or so
It's hard to decorate 37 bedroom?
I know your Pop is still super know, maybe with luck you will have a bigger merge soonish 😅
@modest frost Faction hunt at the same time as incursions? Not fair to those that don't like pvp and if I'm doing pvp I don't want to give points away to grind faction hun.
@pseudo rune @modest frost bad move putting incursion in the middle of the week 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
@modest frost @pseudo rune why are we getting a new event schedule that announces events that are already completed? Typical
I appreciate the detailed event announcement including some details about mantis sourcing. A move in the right direction. If there is a Officer Flash Pass the information is missing from the annoucement
Date are not up yet, but eco said yes and he will announce it when he can
Yeah I heard DJz podcast, that's why I was a bit surprised.
But if I could take a guess it probably launches on tuesday
Lol…here is a schedule, except for the rest of the stuff we said we would release the schedule for today.
…but we are striving to do better
this is why i had said during the podcast that they could have 40 CMs if they want to. As long as scopely is throttling the information the CMs put out, it makes no difference. it is what it is
Wow 3 days of the borg cube! You really have no idea how to make events!
Not doing any Armada or borg cube events!!!!!!!
You mean like how they've done it every time so far?
it's the same old thing over and over again. I don't know why people keep doing it?
Vidar skin, borg recruits
Put the Vidar refit shards in the bag and nobody gets hurt
not worth the time
Nobody is sourcing the skin or borg officers that matter through this event, lol….the universe would undergo heat death before completing anything.
Takes 5 minutes to complete each of the first 2 days; then on the third day you run some madas. Not sure what the complaint is about.
And yes, people source officers and the skin through the event lol
it's the same old thing over and over.. losing interest
No like who they can make a 💩into something worth playing.
people get all sensitive if you get bored of repetitive trash over the course of 2-3 years

like fifa and sports game players
Incursions back during the work week? Seriously you couldn’t tell screen time was up on weekends? Now I have no chance to compete in SLB for relays. Almost as bad as the current garbage that is the mantis content…
I seriously struggle with who the bigger idiot is. The people planning this garbage or myself for still playing.
I think those that work don't spend as much as those that are retired with lots of time and disposable income.
I like incursions back on the weekday. Too much going on in RL during the weekends. This is great!
Is it still L20+ systems where shields will be ineffective?
Yes expect same incursion mechanics
I feel this on a spiritual level, my friend. Maybe one day we’ll break the cycle and be free of Scopelys grasp.
Not true at all, I got my vidar skin through the borg event
Gold trophy rewards are a joke. Add some new officers please @modest frost
I use it for utility, an other source of rare directives
Dont use it for the officer chest
Use them for the utility one
The recruit one has the same as a premium chest
Soo terrible
it comes so often you can pull 3 double chests on officers and gold trophy chest
or just pull double trophy every othertime by saving
Are we getting the Heroic recruit and assimilate SLB?
Anyone know if unused cow tokens save till next event?
most likely
they are
that is how I do double pull of the rare armada reward pack
but next month, if you pull it as soon as COW start you will have plenty of time for a second pull:
@scenic kernel that’s what I was hoping 😁👍👍
someone see how many shards i win 🤣🤣🤣🤣 i win star xd @pseudo rune
Are there any incursion compensation events planned for servers in bye week to get eventshop currency / subspace relay keys / officer shards / ... ???
you usually get a chest
Rather take the chest, saves you hours in game and do stuff in real life 🤣
It’s been asked
I wonder if still have the Espionage Business As Usual event today for daily tasks.
Those that get incursions should be getting the comp chest, not other way around 🤔
Not getting it is a blessing
I would normally do everything in an Incursions, so I expect 1/4 of a Mantis and some Strike Team bps. This will be the third bye week for server 192 and it's getting frustrating
Most of the currency will probably be locked behind a leaderboard. So maybe not
Six broken hostiles in BORG 33 space. It’s like Scopely launched events just to point out their failures. How hard can it be to fix those broken hostiles?
let's see... if it was easy, don't you think they would have fixed it instead of having to handle with managing customer service request, running scripts...
SLBs and SMS Events - probably.... So bye week servers will miss a lot of stuff sourced in eventstore...
You are up for a merge soonish 🤞🤞 and eco is looking to find a way so bye week servers can still have something in the event store. Hopefully it's your last month without incursion
The amount my alliance spends on packs per month easily covers at least TWO full time positions. It’s not a matter of resources. It’s a matter of care. If Scopely stood by their product they would have fixed these things.
My point is that if it was easy, it would be fixed. My understanding is that the technical debt in their code base is massive, so nothing is easy to fix.
A cronjob running that existing script on all servers seems like the easiest mitigation. Sure, it doesn’t solve the root cause, but you won’t have as many stuck at once and those that do will get unstuck a ton faster than they are currently.
Apparently really hard. Also to busy planning the next cash grab.
Soonish. I guess, maybe the new year at a guess.
I'll miss all the easy solo leaderboards but I guess things will get exciting again.
You can kinda do the same for apex too
Seems like the brackets are wrong for the Borg probe hunt? Our resident lvl28 had to grind 80k points. :(
Anyone know when these events unlock
T5 Cerritos?
Think ops 40 as well?
Other than the first one, that’s for everyone with the ship, the elite ones are t5+ and ops 40 I think
Ah so there is a reason to upgrade the cerritos
Ouch! Someone typo’d and added a 25-60 bracket so everyone got an 80k milestone?
Looks like 80k was only supposed to be for ops 40+
There’s also a special event once you get it to t12
He was hunting all afternoon... At least it let him figure out the best crew.
do u have the next calendar ty
I can't spend rods on Kira today (have been spending on her this month)
Same here
BTW would it kill them to group the Borg event store and the DS9 event stores seperately?
Everything working as intended
im missing miles
Syndicate isn’t scoring correctly in espionage. I got 2 pts per rather than 10. @pseudo rune @modest frost
What a continual goat-f…est.
I already did my dailies. I hate you scopely.
@devout cairn @muted stag @fresh peak Please tell the event runner that this is the best set of tasks that he/she has come up with this month 🖖
Why did I have only 3 'Investigate Kira' in Event Store now I cant finish the event
Me either…. Each had “Limit of 6” above them… so I just bought some and then they ALL disappeared from my event store before being able to finish
ops 27 and same here but at least I don't have to do another borg run for awhile... oops wait the same event is scheduled for today!
I have none for Kira... focused on her throughout so do I move on to one of the other two now?
Goon shards in mini bp....
took me 2 1/2 trips... max cargo=half hull for me
No ship in Myyric
past month or two taught me to do dailies and not collect until after reset because of this darn 'event'
Honestly wish dailies and events reset at the same time to avoid this pain point
I’ve been collecting dailies after reset for awhile. It was about a year ago I think when they introduced a new mechanic that messed people up, so I’ve made it a habit. Now they’ve added a ‘collect dailies’ event so it’s a good habit.
well daylight savings is about to end for alot of us so dailies will shift again lol
unfortunately this has trained me to ignore that red number on the screen and there are days I've forgotten to collect at all 🤦🏾♀️
Or you can do the whole thing properly and it says you completed the Meta and get no rewards for it, for the second time
same. and we are many in my alliance who forget
I'd rather just angrily complain about the stupid don't collect daily too early so they fix it.
Just once I’d like to play this game without there being some kind of lag. Come scopley with the amount of money you get from all these players. Stabilize your damn servers.
? Why haven't I gotten the rewards yet for the cow ALB
Its 30 min past event reset and the ALB rewards are missing
is there a reason the event store for espionage does not give you the option to get the skins or projectiles you started to unlock but did not finish unlocking?
Are the moderators and community managers sleeping on the job
Time out errors yet again, nothing working great job scopely 🙄
😡
I'll just do what I always do, file a ticket and wait for it to show up between 3 and 12 hours later
so do we spend Espionage actions on other officers, or only invest in one officer? Any consequences if i take Sisko/Miles and i was investing in Kira before?
6 rods per claim so if you don't have spares you can only afford one
U spend all 6 on one officer
i spent all on Kira before, now that she is unavailable...
You can spend on another officer if you think it's might not be kira after all (or if you want extra store loot). Need to put 6 in the same officer to finish the meta event tho
There's no myrric system
The last 2 times it ran I spent 6 on sisko and 6 on O'Brian
Yes, it's on purpose. They add another run for people who missed one event and couldn't get the clue. If you had it, you will only have the 2 others officers
Its Myyric
Not allowed to finish, they all 3 disappeared from the store before I could buy all that were needed.
Did you do the same for the previous 3 weeks?
No, I missed some
Seriously scopely....there are a lot of things I'd like to say right now, but don't want to get banned
i am not aware of any clues for the espionage event. it was a pointless event with poor explanation. i just hit randomly not knowing where to click on as a result.
I cashed in 5 kiras and that box disappeared
What were they saying about improved communication? 🤔
Cause 0 communication is not improved communication
It was an interesting experiment bodged into a system that didn't really support it...as such, quite frustrating to interact with
I was only able to buy 5 of them... then vanished...
I guess I COULD contact cs....but am I gonna care in a month when they finally reply
..
Sometimes they don't even do that, you just check back a few days later and it's been closed without response
I don't have the option to buy the Kira investigation. I focused solely on her so is she now done and I should start on Sisko or Miles?
Ok SO after you do 5 kiras
You get a new event
Do that and it gets the 6th Intel milestone completed
Ummm I selected kira twice and the option disappeared
its extra chances to finish so if you fill them up they disappere
Well now I'm hosed. I can't complete anything
yes me too not a great event
thanks... I didn't get an alert that anything new had been posted there
Seconded
I read the thing....but if you have like 3 rods what's the point in spending them if you can't hit the 6 part meta?
so basically if we screwed up at the beginning and distributed points equally you now have the chance to finish at least one... if you didn't screw up you can do another officer?
@pseudo rune @modest frost the espionage event is broken please investigate. I selected one officer but the option dissappeared before I could select it 6 times.
think someone said if it disappears it you get another event or something that finishes it off... but I'm just a player so don't know for sure
How many did you pull, and do you remember if you pull that officer in one of the previous event this month?
2 and yes. The event shouldn't be relate to the last. That's dumb
I dont know, just trying to understand why you could only chose someone 2 times instead of 6
No idea. The option disappeared. I was trying to follow the instruction and now I can't complete it twice.....
There is a total amount of pulls per month. This week is a catch up week
Somehow my issue go resolved I think. Not sure if the support ticket I filed was it
Where is Miles?
I love how I have to leave the game to find this information out.
Yes it how to play games now a days ..... log out ot get the real information
What a great idea, you can't complete one cause you have to take another... and so second time missed the meta...
The extra event was the clue once you put 18 rods in the same officer. If you already had it last week you wont have it again
But if you reach the 18 rods on one officer this week, you should have the clue
I fail to see how this unbracketed SLB is fair as an ops 41 competing against players in the high 50’s over 10 ops levels higher
What's the clue please? 😂
The whole event is nonsense
That's the 3 clue possible depending who you choose
Miles clue say its send by kira
Kira clue say its send by miles
Sisko clue say its send by miles or kira
@rough frost hmm so Kira is the dodgy one then 😂
Its not what I understood there
Me neither 🤣
Kira and Miles mentioned twice each. Sisko not once.
So either a red herring or Sisko is innocent
Just rehashed garbage because they couldn't think of anything else to give us, bit like a crappy stocking filler at Christmas
So it’s Sisko? 😂
I think it mean it's not sisko. They wouldnt give the answer now when there still 2 month to run
You're right ..not even Scopely can screw up what is not really what players want. 🤣
Also we were previously told (through third party) that this event would eliminate one spy, not confirm someone as the spy
Many people like STFC and for that reason we've put up with the bugs old and new and while scopely teams have fixed some bugs many still exist and we put up with it over the years because scopely has been pretty good at patching most of the issues in a quickly maner but old bugs like stuck PvE ships that should have been fixed years ago are now interfering in new content and the fix for it is taking longer than ever to fix now is the time to fix ur game so that people can have fun and not waste money on a ship in which the systems for hunting a currency for said refinery that's attached to that ship is now broken with stuck PvE ships. U need to fix it or people are going to lose interest in the game and want a refund for the money they spent
We need this legend
Miles vanished for me as well, can’t complete it now
Unbracketed events are disappointing
Hey there! Just wanted to let you and the crew know I am following up on this. 🪴
I think it got resolved. I'm not sure how but I was able to finish the event.
So if we complete our daily’s before we go to bed and wake up to an espionage event requiring 400 daily task points, is it possible to get 400points on only 1 set of daily’s? @modest frost
Got no kira, miles or sisko in my event store. Scrolled all the way to the right and borg kras avatar is the last thing
So how do we finish event? I got 3. But asks for 6?
Does anyone else got their iso rods taken but given no sisko clue? I had 8 and used 5 then the fifth came empty and didn't finish the sisko event
Just waiting to see if it's just delay
Anyone?
By the time I get a ticket in the dam thing will be over by days

The Borg recruit and assimilate slb event is extremely disappointing this event should be bracketed not open to all ops levels. I had been waiting for this event in the hopes to do well and get closer to the Infinitus skin for the Vidar. Now I’m an ops 41 and I was able to put up just over 40 million points thinking I was going to do very well in this event. Alas no because I am competing against players who are massively ahead of me. Considering how I feel what about a player much lower than I am competing against ops 50+ players and a couple of ops 60’s. I absolutely liked this event and found it fun previously competing against evenly matched players now that is gone and I’m finding with each event whoever is designing them especially with the “Heroic” tag is sucking the fun out of them 1 event at a time. I have been playing this game for over 4 years and I haven’t been this disheartened or defeated in game ever @pseudo rune @modest frost
What events are in your espionage folder right now?
I found it. Wasnt clear. Looks like I have to do my dailies tonight to score
some that did the espionage event perfectly still have all three options, and those that messed up first run have all three, event is borked!
It is bracketed, it's just that the 40+ bracket is much larger than the lower ops levels, similar to the 28-49 bracket for the 6/12 hr daily events. The good news is that 40 million points is still a pretty good score, since many of the late g4 or g5 players will have started to run out of officers to spend xp on.
There are two events today giving six espionage box thingies
40-60 is still too large of a bracket
did Miles ever return? Oo
:picardfacepalm: :picardfacepalm: :picardfacepalm: :picardfacepalm:
A bloody Wednesday . Why work days!
So I finished the bonus event....guess Kira is the spy? The last bonus event text mentions a stardate that is a real DS9 episode one that Kira makes a log entry quoting said date on an away mission with Odo....
Anyone else come to the same conclusion?
I hope youre correct cause Ive been going Kira all along.
Not me...LoL she was the least invested the first month. And did all Miles this month...talk about bad luck
There 3 clue, each different
@rough frost thank you
@rough frost is that from the stardates? I don't get how the clue mentions names
The name are anagram
Oh wow didn't think of that.
Searching for a Maquis raider on an unstable moon, Kira is trapped in an expanding crystal formation that threatens to engulf her if Odo cannot set her free. Meanwhile, Nog attempts to persuade a skeptical Commander Benjamin Sisko to write him a letter of recommendation to join Starfleet Academy. Returning from security consultations at Prophet'...
Points didn’t score and these are the screens I see
This needs fixing too, because I did all events correctly
@pseudo rune @modest frost are we getting October bonus Refinery this weekend or early next ?? 🤔
you had to score the points after event reset this morning / afternoon. if you completed and turned in the dailies prior to event reset you must score them tonight after daily reset.
Anyone figure out what resources? Not 4* gas…
try par trit or dil
ore gas and crystal count as materials, not resources
All but the 255 was done after reset
which is the 70 im guessing?
events keep getting better and better 🤣 ,. 👏 scraply ..
I will finish tomorrow morning then
Who came up the the scoring requirements for the borg SMS? I'm a level 28 with max tier vidar. I h3ed 79.84k points. That is 555 level 30 probe or 355 level 31 probes. Overlooking the hours of grinding for that many kills, that is 4 1/2 hulls on my vidar for the 30s or 16 hulls for the level 31s. Higher level guys in my alliance are completing in 1 or 2 high level probe kills. This is a ridiculous grind.....
is the upcoming Terror SLB for 35+ only?
You cant kill level 33? Need around 50 to finish
I can only get about 10 31s on a hull. 80k is insanely high for a ops 28....
That req has been escalated.
Yeah, I dont remember much how it was when I had a little vidar but that do seem a bit hight 😅
wth? 80k? I only need 11.65k @ ops 31
How are they getting better when the events are the same over and over and over....... again?
Releasing an announcement soon. 🙂
We need that before the spending event!
I can only wish my SLBs are low enough where a bonus refine would help, lol…
i want to know which of the SLBs I can compete in... The Terror SLB sounds like it might be for the USS Terror Skin and that means it is likely to be a 35+ only SLB, right? But there was no mention of levels in the news.
IIRC this event scales based on vi'dar tier rather than ops
with a maxed vidar, you're expected to be able to hit 32/33 probes
Terror skin is for armada. That nearly no one do outside terror skin event. So I wouldnt worry much about that one 😅
Well, that is ridiculous. @pseudo rune why does ops 28 need 8x as many points in the borg sms than ops 31 (80k vs 11k)???
because it is probably tied to tier instead of level. I only have a T7 vidar... you have a max vidar... But I can easily kill 16 level 33 probes to a hull with a t7 vidar... You should be able to do more unless your PMC is lower
My 759 crew gets significantly more probes per hull than my pmt crew
yea... because they aren't interceptors... why would you run tlann? XD
I have a t7 vidar, I can kill countless level 33s enough to fill cargo almost twice. Use Spike, Uhura, Hemmer/Una
It’s to do with the types of weapons certain Borg probes fire
Can’t remember which is which but there is a point PMT is the best crew. Then it’s PMC and SNW for the rest
ah... i just always ran PMC against them because they are battleships not interceptors.
Tlaan is better on them overall. Depending on research, chen can do better for some.
Then at one point, 7/5/9 or Spike is king
Firing pattern and number of round needed to kill them tell you who us best, chen or tlaan. Testing the best tho
SNW crew is at least twice as good As anything else. My vidar went from killing 29s with 100k probes to 33 and maxing cargo
It’s insanely good. By far.
As long as your shield doesn’t run out *
I prefer borg crew 😅 goes quickier with 5 bonus
https://stfc.space/hostiles/2909521956?c=$stats:false%26fp:false%26locs:false%26cargo:false
This is why you run tlaan.
I just got hemmer recently so i'm going to try out the SNW crew again.
So.....Sisko, Miles, or Kira? 🙂
well... that was a lot of nanoprobes... almost filled my hull for the first time. a bit annoying having to wait for shields to regenerate each fight though, gotta work on research for that
Is this correct
Yes, you can finish tomorrow if you dont have more dailies to do right now. Reset is in a few hours
Lemme disco to some g5 then I guess
I use SNW with 5 on the side. 400k+ a hull and it goes pretty quick.
I dont like Spike 😅
@modest frost Hi Bek! Are you able to confirm if the espionage Isoliner data chips carry forward to November and December?
I think you’re right. I upgraded my Vi’Dar to tier 7 yesterday. My milestones went from 7,200 yesterday to 11.65k today.
G5 gas not counting for daily’s, great job again
i don't even have that event 😄
Just return to the station. It’s the message you intercepted from the hostile from the previous mission
Im 29 T8 vidar and I only need 30.5k points, thats just 20 33s which I did in 5mins. 80k would take me 15mins, 1 run
Can't believe they actually announced there was only meant to be two options in Espionage (because we had'finished' the other one) and told us to pick another, then later tell us that was actually a problem that they have now 'fixed' and we can continue with our previous choice ( after we've already started spending on the others). No wait, of course I believe it, its $copely 🙄😕😒
Return to station with ship you killed the hostile
Completed everything I could. Only got 3 intels.
Business as usual, all the way to the left, goofy guts
Or my favourite minor twist on that, “You can lead a horse to water but you’ll look stupid trying to force it to drink”
How do you do the collaboration events
I fill my vidar cargo everytime and have to spend forever killing it after using mudd ro harrison
It's just not a challenge to fill cargo anymore 😅
its finding the balance between full cargo and 0 hull
if I stripped below decks I might actually die shortly after
but there are times with mudd ro harrison i'm at full cargo with 3/4 hull left
others 1/4 to 1/2
yeah i do 600k cargos nowadays on 33s
its nice
I just summoned back 😂 wasn't taking chances with 3 gold bugs in cargo that run...
The you get the horses who’ll drown before they drink….
Thats atleast 20m xp spent on a borg officer
Deffo use 5 then… speed it up considerably… I use SNw pike with SNw Spock and 5.. takes 15 mins for 750k
ok done, where do i get the clue?
It’s in one of the 2 on the right
It's a stupid event Idea.! " Click-&-win" 🙈
Is g5 gas not counting towards anyone else’s daily’s
what are the resources we need to get for the cryptic transmissions?
Is it just trit/pars/dil? Because I've brought back basically everything except for that, not sure if it's just base stuff or a special thing
Just bring the ship home you used for the previous event, to shoot the hostile
I think dil was the trigger
@pseudo rune @modest frost why are there lvl60s in my bracket for this event?
I mean I know why, scopely screwed up
FIX IT
Oh right west coast time, they won't see it until the event is over
No body knows! The whole thing is joke!
To make sure the Whales win the event?
Time needed is the problem. We need higher level borg probes
Spock is to kill interceptors from an explorer. You want to use SNW Uhura.
recall your ship (the one that kill the hostiles in previous event)
Recalled and got nothing , I sent to myyric killed a hostile which completed the counterstrike event ,, then recalled and got nothing
Ok went bad and killed afew more hostiles recalled to complete
Went back to myyric
Got all these iso chips and nothing really to spend it on, the event market is going to close momentarily. Will there be another? How will I know when I should just buy the whatever stuff, vice save for the refit? Where did all the other stuff go?
Event store will reopen throughout DS 9’s espionage event with same currency
Resources and Materials
When do we spend the espionage files we collected in the first half of the month?
Intel?
Yes
In December if you guessed the right spy, depending on how much Intel you have you will get rewards
I understand i should have been focusing on one character
That is very disappointing to learn now
It was mentioned at the start of the last month
Skipping the Garak SMS. Rewards don’t justify the time spent.
I am sure it was, but not overtly. Like the first, “we only have enough for one suspect”, I did what was required to collect the reward only to find, I had messed up, too late. I had been collecting each character intel evenly, as there was no clue as to whom the imposter was.
Where did all the refit rewards go, and why are the Cardasian projectiles limit to 5 an appearance?
Capped at 5, you need an ops 34 epic too. You get an unlock by the time the full espionage event
Uhhh
How many times after today, will we be able to access that event store?
Impressive level of incompetence 🙈
I haven’t done the maths but by the time it ends you will have exactly enough
I really hope they do more than exactly enough lol
They mixed up their Uhura’s? 😂
Yep. Already passed on
I’m not exactly sure but from what I’ve seen, by December you should get the unlock. Idk if that means there is extras or not
?
I am genuinely curious how nobody caught that.
Passing this on
Have bought 10 megacube directives but inventory only shows 9 🤬
Scopely didn't make a 2022 Halloween avatar or frame 💩
You didn't hear about the new 10% tax on purchases?
@modest frost no USS Terror skin this round?
In 2 days? 🤨
@modest frost can you check if "Frames and Avatars" is the only event store option intended for lower ops? (Namely ops 13 here. Could use materials and officers as well 🙏 )
👀🙈😂
Already under investigation
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Houston, we have a problem
See 2 messages above
Repetition is needed!
I know. Simply too bored to copy and paste my message tho
time to make those worms relevant again!
Dear Scopeguys…
Current Megacube spawn rate —> Megacube = Mega crap
Decent Megacube spawn rate —> Megacube = Mega fun
Simple, isn’t it?
No vidar skin slb…. Sad again scopley
Why are only mega cube tractor beams respawning?
@modest frost @pseudo rune please don’t tell me the only thing I can get in the halloween event is an avatar and frame - that’s no use to man or beast 🙈
Crap event rewards
This is being looked into. 🙂
What ops are you?
Since the events aren't that good anymore, can you focus on fixing the lag?
yeah agreed
Mega cube spawning = 0, another fantastic event brought to you by those fantastic folks at Scopely thanks so much….NOT
Now, nothing is spawning. This is a cyclic event. It should be automatically the same thing every time.
So, in Halloween event store, why is garak (rare) same price as all epics, when all other rares are half that? Price gouge much??
that event store is crap though
Another awesome wtf moment 🙈
19
Thank you
@modest frost garak shards cost was 6k halloween hats
Now its dropped to 3k
Mind looking into it, cause some already bought his shards and should get double mount 🤦♂️
It can be finished very quickly if you can do Lvl 49 transports in sol or whatever, decent rewards
Write a ticket about it. CS will get to you
Can I write a ticket of how bad borg mining officers sourcing is after being in the game for years?
Check again, should have officers now
Its from the 2021 event too...isn't that perfect.
Pfffft I bet you change your underwear every day too. Ia di da your majesty
I would if i wore any...Tmi?
they are changing strike team tlaan to snw pike in upcoming SLB 😡
No, that's not what they're doing, just clarifying which pike it is.
oh okay thank you
is this red data or green data?
Neither, take home the ship you used to kill the hostile in the target system from earlier in the chain.
I know they say working on a solution but Typical change garak shards cost after already paid 6k each 🤣
Polka dot data
How come I don’t have that section 31 event?
cause it was yesterdays event ?
I didn’t have it yesterday either
i did
You get it by putting 18 rods in the same officer during spy event this month. We had 4 weeks of event. If you spread your rods you wouldnt had it. Or you didnt saw it
Ahh. There’s the answer haha. The love was spread
The extra event was to get a clue. There was 3 clue, and it should help us this month to eliminate on spy.
This is what I get for spreading the love between the 3 😩😅
here is your punishment for been a hippie 🤣
That's a totally reasonable price for an avatar from 10 arcs ago
Thankeee 😊
I guess the visual background for the Borg mega cube got broken some how
🤨
they already used the invisibility cloak on events last month 🤣
<@&509691205798592532> how long in average does one player have to wait until they can launch a megacube? How many people are launching double megacubes? What's the eye health of someone that stares at the screen for 20 minutes waiting for a megacube to spawn?
Hi, the MC armadas need to get a update on the reloading time. As all 3 system is empty. Can this be done for next Borg Event?
It’s been raised
Thx @silver pike
Anybody know what’s in the token Bajoran space?
I don't have those...Ops 39
Lucrative G4 and G5 nodes, like Borg
Ops 40+
We did it…we finally defeated the Mega Cube. Can this event go away forever now?
I need it to run another 50 times so I can afford a cool megacube avatar.
I'll need it to run weekly so that I don't die of old age first.
Ahhhh makes sense. Thanks
When can we expect the compensation gift chest for Garak?
It's not the 2 borg armada tokens is it?
It’s already out
You only get it if you purchased his shards at 6k instead of 3k
I did?
Good morning! Did I interpreted the announcement right that ST Laan won‘t be included anymore in the SLB today?
She will be
Announcement simply stated which pike is going to be in slbs as well
Thank you! Highly appreciated!
Ou sont passé les récompenses de l évent Kira, Miles, Sisko , il est toujours en cours et les cadeaux ressources et materials ont disparu 🤬
No £18 Borg armada pack? I could be persuaded to pay that to ensure I got 4/11 shards, but not £44.
I also accidentally spent Borg credits on Vi'dar bps (don't need) rather than infinitus skin shards. Anyone ever got a refund on that? I could really do with the 3800 credits back.
Contact CS and see what they say
@stable cedar
Why is the Halloween avatar real money only? But we can get last year's with witch hats? Is that a bug or are we going the way of $20 per avatar?
The one from last year is 150k
You get like 35k from events so you either way will have to buy
So then is it even possible to buy at all? You can only get 84k hats from the packs
Do we know who the spy is yet?
The Halloween avatar is cool but I like the witches hat better and wish it could be my avatar 🧙♀️
props to whoever designed it I almost like it better than the turkey avatar
Ha! made my own
we know its not sisko
Is Actian supposed to be in the special currencies?
No it’s actually condensed venom
Cheers man didn’t know if I was missing something.. 👍🏻
I’ve raised it. To be adjusted correctly but it’s minor
Wish it was Actian haha
What an awful ticketed event. 2 officer shards at best for completing an event. #hardpass
Anyone tried already garak halloween events of today. The points looking insane
You need to kill 10k hostiles 😨
Maybe a typo🤔
Is Scopley now fully bonkers as Halloween events are ticketed
more bugs I open 4 chests and it gives me 1 or 2 chests, its been happening for months
25 points per hostille, and I need 3,75 mio for last milestone😂
Seriously?! Need to kill more than 35k lvl 50 hostiles for completing the event?!?!?!
I need to kill more then 100k hostilles, funny…
No choice of res i the Halloween event. They all give ore and par <@&509690795536941056>
Seems to be a bug. My members report it as well, but for me it looks like this:
I need to kill 7500 hostiles to score full on the event 👀
Is that …. How it is supposed to be?
I need 2500
Did you try to acutally shoot any? For me it's scoring "correctly"
i am certain that this is some kind of translation error. it was ok for me then i switched to german and had the lower points per hostile, too. switched back to english and it was back to normal points
I think so too. The screenshots from the others are German and my members play on German.
My client is in English and showing it correctly
Seems so as I switched from german to englisch it became the higher points.
That’s my, I have to kill 1.07 million ships from each Faktion 🤣🤣🤣
So lost in translation again
That's a big assumption thinking Scopely has a sense of humor...
Yes, it's a Halloween scare event. Meant to scare you away from the game this weekend.
Ist nur nen Übersertzungsfehler
@silver pike any chance scopely can add tickets to store?
Yes, I second the event tickets; it’s an opportunity for them to make money. It should be an easy yes
I’ll try now
Try, Tooltip is wrong. I m already done just doing some 47-49 romulan
as we say in french: heuuuuuuu
You got at lest three chests:
1x 11 rare
2x 27 unc.
Are you sure you did not open just three?
Whoever is planning the events at Scopely and whoever is reviewing this should be fired. Can Scopely do anything right? @modest frost
En tiens pas compte, les points sont faux. Tu as beaucoup plus en vrai
Wrong Tooltip, you get lot more than that
ce n'est pas le premier avril pourant 🤣
translation error I think
Only 2542 lvl 38 to complete event for me 🤔.
Wrong Tooltip, the points look more like your usual hostile hunt
Probably i got the trick part of trick or treat 😅.
You use the game in witch language?
is there some ryme or reason for who gets the reputation pack ds9 pack and who doesn't? Nearly everyone in my alliance has it and I don't see it in my store..
Did you buy them all last time?
yep
Look like limit is 2 total. Few people who take 2 of one faction last time only see the 2 others now
No idea if its intented or not 😅
@modest frost What a waste of tickets - pls rescore quickly! Many thanks in advance!
Wrong translation, the points are lot highter
@modest frost can we pls get event tickets in store
you only meant to do 1 of the three
if you have more saved up you are lucky
Had enough for 2 wanted the 3rd
The ticket event "choices" all give ore. Is Scopely going to fix that soon, or leave it? I don't want to join the wrong one and then they make gas available and I wasted my tickets.
So a L54 gives 514k points
Yes 👍 all the others hostiles give more points than show too, the right scoring is in the English version
Yup a translation error
@pseudo rune please stop making these leaderboard events for strike team officers. You are not helping players to be able to get them. Put them in event stores. Or just don't offer them. This is an insult to f2p players, it tells us you don't care if we ever get them.
They'll be in the Incursion event store.
and easier to obtain with slb than event store
A combo of both is a good approach
Don't have to win the SLB to get closer to unlocking her.
So a ticketed Halloween event and no tickets?
Tickets were delivered yesterday… via gift chest
Some in my alliances also didn't get the gift chest. Why have tickets sent out on different days?
Speak for yourself rather than presuming to speak for others. If they were packs only I'd never get them. As it is I'd saved bloody months and managed to place well in a leaderboard event to end up getting the whole team without paying.
It's not impossible, you just have to accept you wont win every time
Great event! Epic gives less points!
no they dont lol
Rare = 100, epic = 85.
pff
you know there is a directive difference right?
so rare is 20k points and epic 35k
for normal ones
and for solo its 85*500= something higher
Rare 200x100 = 20 000.
Epic 500x85 = 42 500
too lazy to calculate it
Epic only gives 75 pts according to the slb tooltip.
I have 85 points on mine?
Haaaa solo give 85, normal 75. Logical 😅
lol you guys do events on weekends 🤣
You are on discord on weekend? 🤣
I got called into work 😭
which is utter trash.....holiday events should be fun gimmes to the community who have been put over a barrel with all the BS lately...but instead, let's do our best to monetize everything
I started all 3 thinking I was starting my faction rep event 😂
Guess the cure to bugs and horrible lag is to just do a spend event. Those always work
well the less people that keep logging in after being turned off by the sheer amount of paywalled stuff, the less people complaining about bugs and lag. see how that works? 😄
we've already seen CaptO
with the mergers on mergers on servers that just merged after a merger
You know what you kind of need for clear the coast? Exchange hostiles….. penumbra spawns about 2 a minute….this is just stupid
any recommendations on what to spend on for the Halloween event?
spend it on things you already have and don't need
real money for tickets and avatars 😄
How do they expect 31s to go against 34s its is impossible
for?
Slb
You'll need to hoard mats/directives to compete f2p, otherwise, there's the cash shop.
auctions are auctions for that specific reason. they dont expect "31s to compete with 34s"....either you hoard enough, or spend enough. If you dont want to do either, then skip the event 🙂
I’ll give them this. They botched the rodinium particle thing so bad I got 2 packs that were limit 1 and then got 2 free compensation packs. Was like $1600 worth of rodinium for $200
You think it was worth 1600, u may have even thought 200 was a good deal, it really wasn't
its called being tailored
does anyone have SERIOUS suggestions for what to buy from the holiday event?
We dont know your op, we dont know what officer you have or dont have, we dont know what you would need more, how can we suggest anything?
Just take any officer shards for someone you need
Garak. The end.
Everything in the store can be sourced elsewhere, except for Garak.
Laan is also a nice option, has no sourcing options and useful for Mantis
In general, I don't like epics in event stores, cost too much to get anywhere outside of TPs. Rares are a 3rd of the cost, except this time for some weird reason, and still have hard sourcing when they do reach ultras/premiums. I'd avoid non-Laan SNW because the mantis refinery is broken in our favor. Nothing in there is hard to get.
I like epics in the event stores purely to close the gap when I'm close to tiering. I.E. in this one I needed 3 picard shards and RNG hated me in the other two sourcing options
Is it just me or is this the 3rd incursion in a row where APAC is getting hit with incursion and day 3 of apex (armadas) the same day lol
Anyone know what the chest has and does it scale with ops?
500 syndicate xp, 100 badges - and no, it doesn't scale with ops
Thank you
100
Tanks is something lol
What is the Terror event that is coming up?
The rares are one third the cost in this store too, no?
Oh shoot, 3000 not 2000 😵💫
Delet this
apex is from 31 to 2, it should be EU that get the armada sms the same day as incursions, am I wrong?
Read the announcement. APAC have FH affected
Yep that’s exactly it
It's for the Terror-Skin which is for the Frank-A. You will need to defeat Swarm Armadas in a SLB Event to get it
And the only thing the terror skin helps on is swarm armadas, so it’s a pretty pointless item and event.
True. I realised that after spending too much in previous events.
When it would help on Swarm NPCs, it would be nice.
But a skin which works only on Swarmadas, which you only need to do, when the skin SLB is available.
Pretty pointless
Or if it maybe gave a 100% chance of jaylah shards when killing a swarmada, it could at least theoretically be good
But that would be for what is now an obsolete officer that only works on a grind loop that again has become obsolete for people once they get past ops 45ish
@silver pike Can you explain what the details of these events what are going to be doing and milestones what are we gonna have to do
▫️Terror SLB: Oct 30-31
▫️Apex: Oct 31-Nov 2
In a normal run of both.
Terror SLB is running swarm armadas
Apex is
Day 1) Data mining/officer recruit
Day 2) Hostile grind (eclipse /augment)
Day 3) Eclipse armadas OR same as day 2 if you are below Ops 27
Apex has been changing up what it does on which day so the order might not be correct
Ah ok. Thx.
Can you check PM please
not sure why my mind pushed the days for apex to later in the week, thanks for the correction
The frank A loop is obsolete past ops 45?
You start needing trillions of par, and 100s of billions of tri, and billions of dil. The daily rewards from even g4 swarm exchange just does not keep up in any way to be significant.
By ops 49/50 it’s really pointless beyond event points. You get a fraction of a fraction of a percent of what you need for anything even short term. Best it does is maybe give you enough trit and dil daily for a single repair on a decent tier 46 shipyard ship.
…well that, and a decent chunk of your dailies points requirement for very little time spent in game.
11 dukat for 32k elite. Do these planetary tokens stick around, and is there anythig you can do with them besides spend 48k?
swarm armadas? like whos gonna run it
Constant lag for at least an hour after reset is becoming quite challenging…
reset ur network config, not seeing lag on my end
What events will there be for the apex event starting tomorrow
Apex is usually mining data/hunting eclipse or augment hostile/eclipse armada. Can change around a bit but it's those 3 events
Do u get more loot drops from the armadas during apex events
No
Ok ty
And its good for banking tokens daily, even if the raw rewards aren’t great
Does kira break normal arms too?
Had 4 ships get stuck in combat beating a regular rare, directives lost, no battle report
She's linked to failure-to-launch in general. I'd avoid using her anywhere, but especially in Eclipse.
Then why isn't she pulled since she breaks armadas and is an armada officer?
Many armadas will run with her there. There are specific circumstances where she's likely to cause the problem. No idea why they aren't making a stronger, faster response, but they have a resolution in place: Contact CS for directives back.
Plot twist this was on purpose, further proof she’s a dirty changeling 🤣
So, did players get NERFED or did Factions get Buffed or both? Before Event change I was killing lvl 40 and 41 transports with ease, now I can't kill one!
players can't get nerfed lol
Then explain how the same ship with the same crew dies with barely denting same level ships it was destroying 4 hours ago?
exo? territory buffs? LD?
Nope. and I was having no issues all week, until Event change. And Devs can change the RNG to "nerf" the players chances. It is all in the coding.
killing hostiles is not RNG
same system?
false
Players cant get nerfed. If one day you were killing 41 easy and one day you cant, 99% chance you just forgot to swap tlaan for chen 🤷
Post a SS of your battle report showing the crew.
I only run Kira in Sisko crew against carmadas…haven’t had a problem there yet…could be luck…
Id say she was the spy, but i think thats pushing logic too far 🤣
It’s just you. One of the interns was mucking about in PlayFab and had some fun with your account. Once we all stop laughing about it, the change will get reverted.
Probably.
we’ve seen players regularly in the past years of the game slowly have accounts randomly go down if they quit their account power slowly went down to zero for no reason its also been posted here from other servers so yall are just lying lol
It has to do with the number of Kira’s and number of rounds in the battle. Once the armadas mitigation reaches a negative value it simply cancels, because the game does not allow for negative values in mitigation.
Seems kind suspicious that when Gaila causes a issue that benefits the players, Scopely pulls her right away. But when the issue negatively affects the players, where is Scopely's response?
There's nothing suspicious about it. Gaila was economy-ruining, she allowed people to gather an inordinate amount of 50 epic carmada loot with the most garbo of teams. The nerf was for 1 day, and the fix works.
The Kira has a response, and no one's losing directives unless it isn't being refunded.
Well they didn’t refund mine from my request two weeks ago, but I know they have refunded others. I probably just drew the short straw on which CSR handled my ticket.
I'd ask again, or contact one of our CMs about it.
This. It absolutely was a problem. And yes, I benefited from it and actively pinged to get it fixed at the same time.
Still haven’t fixed 1 exo taking up 2 slots
lol, economy
It's a way to describe it. The game establishes an expected income and we extract and use it develop our stuff. Too little income and we get bored by stagnation. Too much income and we're all sitting at 60, having skipped all the perfectly good, and enjoyable content.
Does anyone know where or how to find a list of officers that do not work during armadas?
Gaila wasn’t the issue…the issue was whoever designed the carmadas forgot how Gaila works, lol. The « fix » is basically exactly how carmadas Hoyle have been done in the first place.
Calling 51 to 60 enjoyable content is a bit of a stretch.
What did I miss here?
💷
Your chance to join Gryffindor
Or shape-shift, while sniffing up smoke through a hat.! LoL
So for people who already unlocked the refit skin, we cannot participate in the terrifying SLB to get the other rewards such as the away team speed ups and trait exp?
That’s typically how it goes.. same as you can’t participate in Jelly Event after you build one, can’t compete in the Stella skin event once you have one. Nothing new
Yup there so many things broken that they don’t rush a fix out for.
Well… I mean, yes, it makes perfect sense. They ARE a business, and if something has the potential to massively undercut revenue, even briefly.. that will be the priority. Let’s put it this way, let’s say you own a pizzeria… your paint is chipping and you figure you’re gonna repaint, make it look better.. and your water main breaks, bam, you can’t do proper business… there’s two inches of water on the floor. You’re gonna fix that water main before the paint, and quickly, right? Not the best analogy, but people get too worked into the whole “how dare they prioritize making money” viewpoint.. they ARE a business
If you give poor service for to long you go out of business. So they should want to fix some of these issues. An if you have a issue with officers for example that haven’t been fixed literally for years and then when something befits the player you nerf in a day people notice.
I know several people who have quit the game. The f ups with DS9 were the finale straw. These were all people who were not just f2p.
Deep space nine missions disappeared from the holodeck, I guess there’s a time limit on grabbing missions now
I don’t disagree. I’ve already made pretty clear I think their dev team is pretty low tier.
A better analogy would be that their oven cooks at uneven temperatures, they have had a rodent problem for the past few years that they are trying to solve themselves, they use a delivery person who drives a car that cannot go above 30 miles per hour and delivers the pizza to wrong house 20% of the time, and they decide to spend all of their free cash flow on expensive shiny flyers about the few new toppings they are coming out with...
In your example, this pizzeria has enough money to hire a plumber to come fix the plumbing, and then hire a painter to fix the walls. Only companies' right up against a budget, on the verge of going under need to make hard choices like this. Scopely makes a ridiculous amount of money. If their teams are too busy with new content, hire some more teams. More employees fixing problems = less whales leaving the game = more revenue that pays for the added employees. Everyone who posts here, anyone reading this, knows this basic business concept. Its ridiculous that for some reason they'd rather trash the future to milk just a bit more short term profits.
Will there be any new alliance events on next reset in ~7h? <@&509691205798592532> <@&509690795536941056>
Apex is scheduled.
Or in other words, if I wait till reset, an alliance event pops up and I didn't participate => leave the alliance => join a new one => participate in the alliance event. Does this work or does this break the alliance event either way?
It used to be that if you didnt score in an ALB you could switch alliances. And scoring would start in the new alliance. But after last incursions I scored in alliance A, switched to B and all new generated points were awarded in A. In the end got rewards from alliance A.
Mitigation doesn't go negative, and negative mitigation stats themselves work just fine.
Do the rare directives spent on swarmadas count for the strike team Laan SLB?
If they are standard directives then they should
But the points will be given per directive
Agreed, but what they should do and actually do, might be two different stories 😜 that’s why I wanted to see if someone tried already
I couldn’t remember what directives they used 🤣🤣
Yes for the mat spends they work
Your points will be only for what you spent though
You really missed the point multiple times didn’t you? Correct, it doesn’t in this game, which is why the Armadas fail.
Lol you have no idea what you’re talking about do you
It’s rarely a good start to argue with O2C on mechanics, is it.
It could be tomorrow, or next Tuesday !?
It's a surprise.!
LoL 😂
It's next week. Apex is starting. Already announced.
It’s next week because we have 5 Tuesdays in November.
Trash scopely saying this would be in events and then literally only having a pay option
At the current pacing you'll be able to earn it from the event store in a 2-3y.
Cool...cool cool
Why bother lieing and saying its in events
Of all the scampely nonsense lately for some reason this irks me the most
No Halloween events on Halloween?
Stingy Scopely, so few chances for event store currency, and 3 of them had to be bought with tickets. And no SMS on the actual Halloween day?
Who picked what goes in the gift chest 4800 hats really why not 3,000 or 6,000 that way you could have at least have one officer pull and not currency left over
this, it's irritating for us with imaginary OCD 😅
Well got 1800 extra hats, useless and still 1 shard short of Garick
Whoever thought 4800 was a good number needs to be kicked in the …
same with me.. 😦
So no Halloween events on actual Halloween 🤔
Treat the 1,800 hats that will sit in inventory forever as those nasty nougat candies you used to get from the cheapskate families on Halloween
is there a reason why the current BP event isn't indicating where one finds these doomsday hostiles?
I'm guessing because its been in game for like 2 years
It's the glowy orange systems under augment area
that's not particularly helpful for someone who has been playing much less than 2 years 🙂
thanks 🙂
And the glowy orange systems between fed and rom space under 39 swarm area
What was the Happy Halloween gift supposed to give me? I pushed the button and it just disappeared. Didn't show me any rewards at all.
It gave 4.8k hats and a frame
Ok, so it actually gave me nothing then. Cool!
And by the time CS does anything, they'll just be giving me hats I can't use. 🙃
thats your fault spending lol
You know about the war going on in Europe where the Z has a special meaning?
lets ban Z from our vocabulary. I will go with my child to the oo.
Best you can do👍😉
when you come up with the most idiotic idea of the day. yes.
Happy to make your day funny
At least it's not "Heroic!" LoL 😆
Anyone know why Scopely ended the Halloween event early? Do we need to send them a calendar?
Where is the Halloween daily event? I just see day 2 of stupid swarms.
Haloween event was 28-30 october.
Can we get a clarification on the merge time for servers 123 and 122. The message in english and german differ 5 hours in time <@&509691205798592532>
Why don't they have a Halloween event on Halloween... Maybe it make sense to someone? 😂 😂
.. No the point is that the lowest you can go is 0%, which requires negative mitigation stats to achieve, and the higher your piercing stats are the greater negative mitigation stats you need to approach zero.
It's not failing because it suddenly flips to negative, more likely it's an overflow error.
Today should have been a day for the event too
This Armada would be sitting at around -300k mitigation stats, this hostile at around -2m mitigation stats.
There's a formula to model mitigation, around 15% is the normal floor for Armadas and once you start going into negative mitigation stats it will drop below this and approach zero; but mitigation doesn't go negative, and negative mitigation stats themselves work just fine..
Forgive him…he knows not what he’s doing, lol…
They also use 'V' and 'O' to mark units but using Russian Alphabet not English one
But I haven't hit the fabled 0 mitigated yet 😅
can I get some more of those hats please 😂
got some Picard shards, had some hats left over so got one of the Garak shards... then we got the gift of 4800, not enough for Picard so again got a Garak shard... now we get 1200 more so again I guess it's another Gark because I can't get Picard 🥴
You gave the gift too late, now i have this 1500 Halloween currency that can't be spent. If i knew about this extra gift i could choose a shard.
Same with 124 and 125. A clarification would be nice
Same lol
yep... missed out on a Picard shard twice lol
I’m lieu of the Halloween event on Halloween Day, they gave us a free gift of a whopping 1,200 hats. Wow, low 4-digits, worth NOT enough to cover ANY purchase in the event store 🤦♂️
No they didn’t
They gave you 4,800, a frame and 1,200 after we all pointed out that 4,800 didn’t spend as a whole 😆
Yea.. after spending 3000 first, so you got another 3000 to spend - but missed out on getting a 6000 shard
Thank you Scopely
Omg, those two gifts are related. Must… add… numbers… 😭
Yeah, the 1200 was after a few of us said “you know how we complain about excess currency, why do you give us a number that means we have to have excess currency” 😆
So we got 6000 in total - or a whole epic shard (or two rares)
Is it incursions tomorrow? o.O
Check #⭐-official-announcements for the specific dates
thx
While I love all of the extra information coming forward recently, it's great keep it up please! It does mean there is quite a bit of scrolling to find event dates. Could we update #💫-event-information ?
$$$
December my dude, end of arc will have both available for purchase and likely gifted
maybe during incursion event store
Incursions store will have ST officers
Is there some listed where you can get green 3 star Crystal
Or is it literally just refine it
Some missions pay it
Events
Some missions, most events and refinery unless you want to break out a credit card 😂
So it really is very limited then
Events
Not really. Ops 39 G3 uc is loaded
What does that mean
Closer you get to Ops 39 the better the G3 uc payouts get in refinery and events
Above 39 it drops out for first few ops 40 levels
Ok 👍🏻
Did you know when began the incursion ?
It all changed when the fire nation attacked
Any word on why the Stella skin event is only 24 hours and not overlapping with the Armada Apex event?
also nice that everyone lost their shield since merge didn t happen
@pseudo rune ?
Oops forgot to spend my Halloween store loot. Can it be exchanged?
Let me ask about this
They dont do currency exchanges, but they may reuse the currency next Halloween. Some you can bank like that for repeating events.
That’s what I was thinking, missed out on 8 whole epic shards, oh well. Busy morning got me.
@pseudo rune so guess we are now merging or why both servers get this message
123 and 122 got it
You are merging now. Good luck 🤞
Yup just put out another announcement!
Lots going on this morning =]
Keeping you busy today lol
This is why I didn't go out last night for Halloween 😛
It is okay. I know not your fault but this is a bit of dumpster fire.
Sorry about that Phil and we'll try and make things better/smoother for the next time we do merges
I think one lesson is maybe also not to do it after a day where most people go out drinking 🙂
Running for 24 hours this time. I'll follow up with the team to see if we can have it back to 48 hours for future runs.
Anyway first look the merge went smooth
Great to hear!
Thanks amigo!
It's Bek fault @pseudo rune always blame the new person. "We are doing our best to get her up to speed." 😜
Anytime =]
@pseudo rune I know this sounds like a broken record but…. Hostiles need fixed
Hahahaha nooooo, it's always Eco's fault
Well, i might have a chance to score then for once 🙂
This exchange event is so painful with only a few hostiles spawning
I know I should've paid more attention to the timers but who decides to close the event store on the holiday. For parents you're spending your day with the kids not thinking much about the game and even people without kids have parties and get togethers. Is it too much to ask for the event store to last 24 hours after the holiday.
If I leave my ally to join another. Will I still be able to gather points for red Stella event?
54 minutes it took to complete the apex event with 2 ships covering 2 spawn points in Lindstrom
Only thing that might be missing is the merge events or do they start tomorrow :-). Gifts worked and rest seems to be fine.
Bank armadas not showing in battle logs or counting towards red Stella event 🤦🏻♂️🤬
its kinda good for EU, otherwise we would have incursions during the SLB, that sucks
Can we move 66 and 67 up for a merger??
@gaunt lagoon its intended that the apex leaderboard is only 24h this time
17 be happy w new blood for sure
Stop your alliance from using kira...
Still issues with events or is everything ok now?
Great party though.
if these are the events for ops 36 then they work .-)
Look right to me =] Thanks Phil
No one was
Got a , for me new , problem mantis buffs don't start now i find the buff token in shop do i really need to start them manually or ....
Thanks @pseudo rune glad the event store got extended
@pseudo rune i wish i could spend the rest of my Halloween currency but i only have 1500 left so now ill have yet another currency in my inventory that I can't get rid of
@pseudo rune Any word on the changes being made for incursions? Will we get a summary today or will that wait until tomorrow?
No; stuck hostiles, lack of hostiles in eclipse space and actian/mantis space has been an issue for months and months… nothing being done about it at least on server 24 … can you help us out please and get the all haloed “script” to run on server 24… thanks in advance bro
I'm a little lost, maybe you can help. S65 is on an incursion bye week due to the dual merger. Do we miss out of the opportunity to aquire mantis shards on top of the back to back territory losses?
There something planned for that, maybe a chest with event loot store or sub event but I m not 100% sure what will be done exactly.
