completed it last time š
well in part because that's very unusual for this game and in part because some people completed it last week (self included)
Cause you silly
it's a zero short of being "factually impossible" and a zero past "achieveable with intended gameplay" imo
there is some truth to that š
yet its possible and they encourage it by attaching an SLB to it.
It might not be designed to be completed on purpose, but since its scopely, they even fail at that
how do people not understand this
this wouldnt be a debate if there would be a stupid avatar as a reward
The slb and the sms are 2 different things. Sms is to provide the carrot, slb is the reward. There is no completing of a slb however.
I keep seeing people say directive 010 was not designed to be completed. It obviously was designed to be completed with the right strategy. Or did someone in Scopely actually come out and claim it wasnāt to be completed, which they obviously got wrong. I also completed both previous times with a little planning and plenty of time to spare.
Scopely dev stated the intention of the design.
If you did it, then you did something you weren't supposed to do.
Sad. It took me all of 1 min to come up with a plan to complete
And 1.5 hrs of being a zombie to complete
We are all better than base humpers
45 min actually, but less time than I spent raiding for incursions
Note, I am not in the running for shards on my server, so I look at this change as a positive for future events
Devs can't compete with players who are so conditioned to complete a sms, they will still try, even if the entire event is optional, even if they intend for it to not be doable. And then players come to complain about their 90 min experience tapping things continuously, which they brought upon themselves. Truly voyager part 2 is a grand social experiment.
And 45 minutes of base humping is not any better than 90, it's bad gameplay
it may be bad gameplay - but it is an answer to a STUPID mission
I enjoy competing in SLBs. Some people enjoy resetting miners. Some people enjoy complaining.
I enjoy all 3
And 90 minutes of your life that you will never, ever get back wasted on implementing said plan.
Sad, indeed.
Anyone know if prices in Euros still ā¬119.99 in the Scopely webstore please?
It wasnāt 90 min. But are you saying you have never wasted 90 min in you life? Including on this game? If not thatās impressive, you should run for President of the United States with āNo 90 minutes wasted!ā as your campaign slogan.
Hey, if youāre satisfied, thatās all that matters. Cheers.
Bit of a contradiction, to spend your time commenting on how someone else spent their time? Is your time redeemable and ours is not?
Not really. But if you feel it is, thatās ok, too. Cheers!
Cheers! makes it all better. I gotta remember to use that more often š
Cheers š»
Any particular reason the recent queen's gambit is sending you to territory of other alliances?
Kind of a nice way to get blown up
Looks like the mission isn't playing well with people who have their station in territory
So looks like the 2nd part of the mission sends you to a system connected to whatever system your station is in.
Better hope you don't try to do the mission during someone's defense, lol.
That'll happen with missions that have mission hostiles that spawn in the system that ya base is in....
So.... just making sure... that if I don't do the pvp event today, I won't miss any steps to completing this right, @silver pike?
Drop some baby ships out and let your friends hit them while you hit theirs. Easy points.
Meh, I got better things to do during that 1.5 hrs... just making sure since Scopely added other means to completing the "pvp" event portion of the Storyline Bucket.
Basically I am looking to compare notes/screens with someone who has already participated in today's pvp event and what their Storyline looks like given that they haven't missed a day.
01:00 EDT
4 hours, 9 minutes
Yup. Last one starts at 07:00 in the morning, Eastern Time.
yeah is fine not doing the pvp event ( ive done each )
thanks @tropic wave !
6/12/6/12 just to the west of that. Couldn't think of worse times if I tried. At least I could put half a dozen ships out and spam HFs like an idiot for five minutes and finish it.
šš»
You had to claim the token. Where you get ur chests. Then pick an event and pay to play. If u join event and donāt hit anyone. You still get the 100 points.
Is it normal after doing Directive 101, that you can not see when the other instances are active? The list of times in announcements is in PST. You can hardly expect ppl to remember those times unless they have PST.
you can only do it once
š¤£
I need to know when I can do business as usual and when not
I mean, I finished the event both of the first two runs. Was it time wasted? No, because I was watching something at the same time that I was going to watch anyway.
yeah, they don't show anymore so you can't join more than once, though it's easy to remember, they run every 6 hours starting one hour after event reset
Quick question. In the 010 event where destroyed ship count but Station humping doesnāt count, my question is does āships destroyed in Stationā count towards Event.?
Good Q, Victorvictor
No
cant log into eur139 today stuck at 96%
would've been nice if it did
Can you try again please
-Try force restarting the app then airplane mode on and off then load on mobile data
i rebooted my pc was able to log in
still having issues opening chests etc
i thin your amazon problem maybe be more widespread
rebooted many times now serious issue with lag when trying to click on things like opening chests, helps, refining stuff, even changing ship
šæ
Server number?
Eu-139
the lag is intermittant, works ok for a few mins then lag then goes ok then lag repeating roughly every 5 mins
Noted, waiting on further reports though š
here is an example of just how long it takes to change ship
pc is wired to the router 1gb internet speeds
lol cant even repair ship during this stupid event with lag issues
and got booted
Downside to switching pvp to ships only is, if you missed the first run, you're basically not going to find any pvp.
unpopular opinion probably but with only 10 people getting anything from the pvp event is it worth your time even bothering?
no i think that's the popular opinion, the effort to reward ratio is way, way off
well that was painful but managed to get it to at least milestone 10
had to reboot at least 7 times just to be able to repair ships lol
Ugh these 90 min windows of not being able to do regular playing is a huge turn off.
Go back to fighting rings in systems and make it damage based please.
trade kills with another player
I have no problem doing pvp.
no need to hunt miners
You're missing the point and it wasn't for you.
All of these isolytic SLBs have been not really worth the time required
Guess it depends on server. I did 2 solo armadas, killed freebooters, and did Actian during the past 90 min.
Of course every server climate is different.
Can anyone tell me, the Override tokens we get for the event, are they simply only used for scoring or will they also be used for an event store? Iām under the assumption they are strictly for scoring and nothing more.
Yet another item that clutters our inventory, making it even more difficult to find stuff in our inventory
You would think simpler would be better, the best part no part, richest guy in the world thinks like that. Should be 101, but since scopely does the opposite, no surprise they labeled it clearly ... 010
Correct
any update? still getting extreme lag and regular disconnects which get stuck at 76% downloading game state
Pvp ship point system should be restructured for points awarded by power destroyed and not ship destroyed. Killing realtas and getting 1000 points per ship and I destroy a 3 m power ship and get the same values as a realta. So for those players that cheat the event they have less of chance of being 1st for only killing low level ships.
Had this lag yesterday during 010 event.
Is $copley just trolling us by refusing to put Syndicate Rep events on the calendar?
No. Historically, they have only included arc-specific events on the calendars, not the rest which sometimes are actually more impactful. I'll add it as a discussion point for one of our meetings. Thank you for the feedback!
The news notes typically have had them. Along with the jelly events. This didn't have syndicate but did have the jelly.
I think not telling us is by design and they're not gonna start telling us. They have more profit incentive to not announce these, imo.
Let me make my comment technically correct. Is there a reason other than trolling its paying customers, that, as noted by @shrewd knot , $copley has once again failed to give any notice of the Syndicate Event?
I'll let them know. I can't promise it will happen but I definitely see how important this is.
I appreciate the sentiment, but the problem is that sometimes it does happen and sometimes it doesnāt. So we all know that if the event runner does their job and gets the <@&509691205798592532> information, planning is possible. And when providing information is more than the Event Runner can manage, the mods are left to deal with the playersā response
Do we have to mine with hailing frequency for this one?
Please read.
Multitask. Mine and use hailing frequencies at the same time? š
I probably should delete this. It might give @modest frost an idea š¤¦āāļø
and the game is still unplayable
Too late
seriously considering quitting this game
So consistency and detail again. Got it.
How long has this horrible lag in the game been going on for.....years?
i cant even stay logged in for more than a few minutes
In English the wording is fine, in German it tells you to mine HFs lol
Delta adversary #4... not showing up... whats the deal?
Delete this before Galvin tells you to read again
another HF mining event
Delta adversary missions 4 & 5 was there... now they are not when I started them... restarted and restarted... still dont show back up...
Hill and Old Riker syndicate XP event is garbage. I skipped it last time. Skipping it again !
Faster mining speed BDA if ya promote Dixon, though. š
Contraband chips are basically useless.
why? what the store offers for them depends on your level
And? Or? š«£š«£š«£
It says and, lol.
Not even worth leveling, he's crap, certainly not worth spending to complete for pityful rewards
It's like they release stuff without any knowledge of who we already have... cough Gaila cough
Anyone been in these yet? Whatās in there?
Hostiles that drop naff all
Just hostiles?
yep
Why am I not surprised š«¤š¤£š¤£
Was a bit of anti-climax after i got there š¤£
F
Lol yeah. Was just poking a little fun
Send voyager, use ability. Special hostiles have lots of faction messages. Basically super scouts.
have been holding my [redacted] while waiting for armadas to spawn. it's taking langer then i hoped for
apologies, i forgot the quiz question: which famous death metal song am i referring to?
Trick question. There are no famous death metal songs.
If you use the Voyager summon ability - it spawns a Borg Cube that gives Faction Messages - and a decent number of them too (for 2 of the factions at a time)
Last time I did it, I got about 3,000 Romulan and 400 Klingon, and it swaps around for the different factions.
Jealous..
Can anyone tell me after doing todays storyline quest for the lobi crystals, what score do they have?
17
Thanks team mate sent in a ticket and they told him he missed 4 events from it and heās certain he didnāt. He has 17 as do I. Got us nervous for a min š
Simpy, youāve never missed a single storyline SMS event then?
correct
Thanks mate. According to Scopely support I have missed 4 storyline SMS events but Iāve done them everyday and currently at 17/20 points. Was in regards to a ticket for not reaching the last milestone in āAn unknown quantity - SMSā as I was 20 points short but sure I had done all storyline SMS events and battlepass dailies. Doesnāt make sense that support says I have missed four storyline SMS events yet I have the same score as people who never missed a single one.
Scopely support aren't known for doing a good job
I wouldn't worry about it. Especially if you have the same score.
Yeah, the issue was I never got a reward for the unknown quantity SMS when I had fulfilled all scoring requirements. According to support its because I didnāt do enough storyline SMS events, but I didnāt think I had missed a single one since I checked and did them everyday
ahh I see
You could try making another ticket saying as much
'I have the same points as everyone else who has completed all SMS and yet did not receive rewards for X Y Z. Please check'
Are you sure you did, in fact, not receive the reward?
The unknown quantity SMS had two ways of scoring, having completed every battlepass daily during the time the event ran, and 20 points per storyline SMS event that ran during the duration of the event. I had fulfilled both but according to scopely I didnāt complete 4 storyline SMS events š¤·āāļø
Remind me what event that was again
I did not receive it, donāt have it in my inventory and I was 20 points short for the last milestone to receive it anyways
Itās to get the unknown quantity token that can be redeemed in the event store for one of the 3 weapons
ohhh
yeah, don't think there could be accurate logs on event tracking when we experience so many scoring issues on events for CS to even be able to pull info from, tbh.
I've had stuff refunded to me
Despite completing events
That I never received rewards for
So I'm pretty sure they should have them
Yeah, support said I didnāt finish the event so the score is accurate. That I basically needed to do one more storyline SMS event to complete it. But like I said, Iāve been doing them everyday and how can I have the same score in the ācomplete storyline eventsā and people whoāve done them everyday if in fact I missed four whole events.
But it doesnāt look like support will be able to do much, since on their end it says I missed 4 events.
Maybe the event you didnt finish didnt contribute to the storyline 20-day event?
Doesnāt make sense, since there was only two ways of scoring. Completing the battlepass daily during the duration of the event, and completing storyline SMS during the duration of the event
ahh then idk soz
Yeah itās alright, what is important is that I was able to establish that my score is the same as those people who havenāt missed a single event
Appreciate the info
Missing 4 wouldnāt make sense with your current score, but there was one makeup event they ran, so itās possible you missed one and got caught up with the makeup event.
Was the makeup event the 2d one? And no idea either, I told support I could have missed one at best but not sure how I would have missed 4. But wouldnāt some people have 18/20 points in the complete storyline events with the makeup one? Or did one event not score for everyone?
Any reason I dont have the assimilated stella skin in the event store like everyone else?
need level 45 stella i think
Wellā¦.that sucks
Iām sure Iāve done all the story events that have appeared and I am at 17 points out of 20
even here
From what I've seen posted here, that's where most folks are who have done all the Storyline Events that have appeared so far.
Looks like there are more of those events coming in the next 4 days.
Phew š
17 pts is max right now. The make-up event only gave you a point if you were behind. Missing the right event at the right time could give you 17 total still while failing to complete the Unknown Quantity event. If you could get a list of the events you missed, it would be easier to see if it fits.
My memory fails was Scopely really so generous as they gave out one of the 99.99 artifacts in an SMS?
It's not a $100 artifact. There's a pack that sells it, a green artifact, plus two blue ones for 100.
They are giving away half a Voyager though, so a 50 pack.
How can I get Lobi Crystals?
battlepass, and completing all the storyline missions this month will get you a choice from the event store (harry or half voyager)
Thanks. I'm 3 pts from completing that. Hope I still have a chance.
yep, that's where I am too
Do we have a chance?
3 days of events remaining (including today's reset), so should be all gravy... providing there's nothing too heavy to do over the weekend
The hope is strong with this one.
I mean, I'm aware it's meant to be 1 point per day on a 20 day arc, so, it's likely š
though if they spring an armada event with large milestones I'm going to struggle to fit it in over a busy weekend š
I just wish all the Voyager missions lasted a week longer than that one.
Same
best not to spend anything before we get the events, guess for tomorrow with the Janeway SLB/auction we will get another "increase-power" event just like the last times and iirc that counted for the storyline event
My guess would be an eclipse armada event
Can someone confirm how many event point i should have??? i have 16 at this moment. i don't believe i have missed any but i was told i should be at 17???
Thanks. Kinda...
The 2 trivia events are in the Storyline bucket. Should they be counting toward the Complete Storyline Events SMS?
1 par 2 kill hostile 3 dil
Theres 4 in total, when you do all 4 you get a storyline event point
So did I, but my count didn't go up. Still 3 to go.
Oh, 3rd one just popped up. Lag.
As far as I got so far
good ol event lag
I have to keep restarting every question š¤¦āāļø
same. brokemn as hell
Welcome to StarTrek Restart Commander...
š«”
Maybe it's server 44s turn to have issues.
187 here ready for merge with 196 or so Iāve been told
Thanks!
only 3 trivia questions today?
No, there's 4
hmm, well 4th hasn't populated yet
1 steel 2 kill hostile 3 dilithiam 4 steel
Restart
this server stuff is really taking the fun out of playing
confirmed, I did get a storyline point for doing all four trivia today
and internet explorer points too tho I've pretty much giving up on that
internet explorer is dead ... microsoft said so
waiting for the firefox event
Iām not getting trivia 3 question
I don't know what question 1 is talking about. That episode did not happen. š¤£
incursion back? AWESOME!
i finished all story missions, but the overall event still states that i need 2 pts. anyone else got this problem?
But i finished 4 missions today ....
Yea, you get one point from #4
oh....
You get 1 point a day, like it always has been,
3 days left, to get the other 2 points
mhmm kay thx
? they are monthly
I was messing with the guy with the post above mine. They are supposed to be monthly but there was about a 6 month period when they didn't happen.
I missed one point from Storyline. I have 3 left. Points to get. Does that mean Iām screwed. Can I make it up
They better do something. Didnāt know how at first
@desert laurel Thanks for the reply Cand1e. According to the scopely support representative the following is a list of all active āStoryline SMS missionsā during the duration the āUnknown Quantity SMSā event ran.
- Resilient Prey SMS
- A Troublesome Peace SMS
- Deflector Infection SMS (Completed)
- The Main Defector SMS
- Augment Holotech SMS
- Gearing up SMS (Completed)
I honestly donāt recall THAT many storyline SMS events running during the short duration the Unknown Quantity SMS event ran, and even if I somehow missed 4 whole storyline SMS events it makes zero sense that I have the same amount of points in āComplete the Storyline Events - SMSā as those individuals who have never missed a single storyline SMS event.
The best possible explanation is what you mentioned in your post, I must have somehow missed one single storyline event during the Unknown Quantity SMS but was caught back up with that extra event they put in. This would explain why I was 20K points short of completing the event if the makeup event was introduced after the Unknown Quantity SMS had ended. Guess I should have reached out here first instead of to support, because they just added to the confusion by stating I didnāt complete 4 storyline SMS events.
What level were you at the start of the patch?
Resilient Prey SMS (missed)
A Troublesome Peace SMS (25-)
Deflector Infection SMS (Completed)
The Main Defector SMS (25-)
Augment Holotech SMS (25-)
Gearing up SMS (Completed)
Either 42 or 43, donāt remember exactly when I tiered
Missing Resilient prey SMS will cause you to miss the artifact. The make-up pt from that event could have been earned from Temporal Anomaly, and that would put you at the same pts as max today.
I suppose that makes sense, as I told in-game support I had been logging in everyday and thought I had done every single storyline SMS that popped up, but there is always the chance I may have missed one. So did the other 3 (the ones listed with 25-) not count towards the complete the storyline events SMS?
Those are paired events to the ones that ran, for lower level players.
Ah it all makes sense now.
CS probably didn't account for that. Either way, they were right in that a missed event can cause your predicament.
The fact even people logging each day are missing these, should be a red flag for live ops or whoever comes up with these things
I appreciate the info Cand1e. Glad they did the extra storyline SMS along the way to give those a second chance that may have missed one. I think thatās where the original confusion originated from, since someone mentioned that one storyline event didnāt count for everyone so they introduced an extra SMS for those individuals who were missing a point. I was just trying to figure out if I may have been affected by that issue since I thought I had done every single storyline SMS and battlepass daily up to that point.
Any chance you remember which the extra SMS event was as far as name and what we had to do?
Temporal Anomaly, ran on the 15th.
Thanks again for all the information, very much appreciated
SHUT YOUR MOUTH
For me its the foldering that will sometimes catch me off guard. Just seems like daily events would be more easily navigable without the extra load screens. If an event is a month-long theme, couldn't it just have like, an orange trim?
OR make the folder glow when a new event pops up. There's just a lot of alternatives to indicate something new is available than the current "You have to go in and check" method. I'd be ecstatic if we got a sidebar event tracker, similar to sidebar chat.
Itās too complex, add mission fomo checking holodeck and this new system is terrible
So how many pts are still up for grabs?
3
Including today's trivia?
Yeah. Fear I'm going to be one short
How many do you have
17/20
after todays trivia?
Yes
So at reset there are 3 more days
Think I missed the domination style one...
reset tomorrow
Yeah but that's one day more than the arc so am wondering if it's a dead day
Was wondering why there was an extra day on the timer, actually.
Have not heard anything about extra pts. We'll see.
Arc ends one day before storyline
Just a bit annoying that if I'd missed an early event temporal anomaly would-ve sorted me out but alas I missed a later one
Did a poor mockup of the "sidebar event status" idea. This would be just lovely to have.
This is just overlaying the research/building queue sidebar, but could just as easily be a separate arrow next to it, scrollable perhaps even.
Sometime did one based like field training too - either is a good idear
Or both
Does anyone else have an issue that they canāt āselect their pathā for delta adversary?
Iāve got a ticket in but they say 72 hours to respond š¤¦āāļø
It's a bug that the event is showing for you at all. There's an #ā-official-announcements on it. Ignore that event.
3 days left on storyline events, 3 to go. No storyline event today. Do I have a problem here?
Finish trivia 2-4 to get sms point
I did. Maybe there's lag
Know youāve already been answered but but here is direct link to the Announcement, in case been buried and donāt wanna search: #ā-official-announcements message
I did all of the storyline events but I am somehow short 2 points. Anyone else having this issue?
nvm was looking at the wrong timer the timer on the front says 16 hours
had to check inside
Voyager trivia 2 is not completing even after having done all possible actions. Is this a known issue?
Nope, I'd try again. The answers are in #1042855078761091072 . Could be lag.
I did it twice and relaunched the game 3 times. Still not complete.
Will raise a ticket later if it persists.
Ok have worked it out in game instruction has incorrect quality. Says to 1 when it should be 100
Thanks.
So incursion prep should run tomorrow based on past runs but they normally run with a XSLB for a pvp officer. Is that off the table since there is a Janeway SLB already scheduled?
Sounds very probable to me.
Will the bye weeks be the same for June 30th as the last announcement from May 25?
So...If I still need 5 points on the Storyline events, and there are 3 days left, am I screwed?
You're well behind on pts so I'd say probably. Max is 18 today, and even if they ran a make-up event and double events on a day, that'll be short.
We have a member that is at 19 today
Leveler during this month, perhaps?
not sure. either way I was away for 3 days this month which was what hurt me. Scopely'd again because I didn't play every day.
Also there was a PVP event in there that I didn't do
Bump
Wow nice play TwistedTorment!
I guess youāre low ops
I donāt want to rain on your parade or anything
But no one cares about the daily events lol
Theyāre there every day and give useless rewards mostly
dose anyone know if they are doing anything for the smaller players that could not do the formation armarda event as they had a ridiculous score of 6.6 million points to get.
Until 51+ lol
Even then I usually don't bother with these. 3rd place here is worse that you would get for a standard 25K research daily event, and usually 10x plus the cost
Agreed.. but I had a 150k research ready lol.. so may as well benefit
On my server 150K would net you 14th for the one from this morning. 3rd at 890K. So not really an option for me š¬
Haha I pick and choose them for sure
you think that is bad, I am a lvl 28
Yea thatās the problem with all levels up to 50 in the same bracket!
At least it seems you get the ship xp events!!! I donāt on a day one server! All uses ship parts!
Yep, I havenāt seen ship xp event in forever
There was on a couple of days ago
I meant the daily recurring events
The one's with recruitment token's or the mat's one?
Far right folder, daily events that are on 11-day rotation
Oops, didnāt mean to post pic, just link
Yeah one was a few days ago, and the double recruitment one I collected a few days before that
lat one I won about a week ago
Never seen double recruit event
Use ship XP on 2 event's get lat officer XP and recruitment token's
I donāt get to see those events
What OMG š³š³
Thus, my original statement
That's weird..
After a certain ops those events turn into ship part spends for mats
Well I've never heard of that..š¤Æ
I'll have to look it up. šµš¼āāļø
Is there a link to the current Intrepid Explorer SLB bracket pairings for levels?
Itās not ops itās server
thx m8!
Yes, stay below 28 as long as possible, you will hate the daily events otherwise
What the heck kind of ALB event is this to award only 1 for those below the top 3??? š¤Ø
š
Q2?
Another incursion event coming up. When will Scopely realise that by pandering to the cash cows they are losing the bait they need to feed on?
Turning the announced slb into an xslb ⦠thanks Scopley.
This event is not scoring properly. I killed a couple dozen freebooters and I only get 1 point per kill.
Armadas don't count as PvE?
SMS/SLB events came in late? So have to submit a ticket to get proper scoring or will it be fixed.
Didn't look late to me, why do you think it was late?
I have 0 points
What did you upgrade?
Hang on I may have made a mistake here.
It was a prime but I think it's 6* which doesn't count
Yeah, those won't count.
Ya, thanks. Sorry about that.
the final showdown ALB doesnāt count as storyline events scoring right? just crystals?
Ok. I'm worried coz my alliance is tiny and if I'm gonna drop from 2nd coz of it
Thanks Candle, I appreciate it
This one has specific scoring that states you only need to place in it, and placing is super easy with 400 slots.
Bless! Thank you so much
Omw to place nowhere useful
Imagine if you won though! š
Imagination is all I have nowadays š«
That's new with Intrepid Explorer allowing scoring from hostile kills. š¤
What happened to the scoring on the ALB? Points for isolytic damage just stopped.
I'm confused by the Lobi awards here. The only things available to spend Lobi crystals on the Harry Kim unlock or Half a Voyager. But it requires completing all the storyline events to get enough. Even 1st place in this LB isn't enough if you failed to complete the storyline events
Same here, confirmed Iāve dealt 1% iso damage and Iām only getting the 1pt per hostile kill
I was getting 180 points per kill. Then suddenly, only 1 point.
this arc was going so well compared to others it had to end
They pulled the isolytic damage scoring.
Problem solved. š š
RIP
Scoring was working fine for me until they pulled it.
Still shows in mine, but it is not scoring anymore.
Reboot and it wonāt be there.
It is so nice of Scopely to keep pulling the rug from under players' feet.
Well that seems a bit unfair to pull that scoring. There's no way to catch up now.
scopley dont care if its broke dont(cant) fix it
and its more likely cant be bothered to try over a weekend to even try to fix it
It is fixed, the error on the scoring card was removed. 100k pts is nothing for how long this runs, and the iso damage didn't work anyway. It's an armada event for the most part.
So isolytic dmg pts been removed from the final showdown ALB ?
pulling my hair out wondering why i was not scoring
Ahh nvm my question was answer after reading
removing it isnt fixing it
scoring was working fine for me, they just don't want grinding scoring more than armadas, hits their bottom line
sounds about right
No point in running any armadas now, there's no way to catch up
Remember, this is Scopely.
shh they are considering removing us
Cross server XSLB and no increase in shard count?
Doesnāt help with unlocking Janeway
But it is an increase in rewards even if you don't like the increase
They couldnāt get their math right. The artifact did additional damage equal to 1% of the regular damage. When you add the 2 together, itās isolytic amount is LESS than 1% of the new total, and wasnāt enough to score.
I was running Pic/Bev/Janeway. My iso damage was 22% of the regular damage. Adding the 2 amounts meant the iso damage was 18% of the new total. And thatās why I was getting 180 points per kill.
Anyone doing just the bare minimum of 1% iso damage wasnāt actually doing enough damage to score.
It is an epic/rare armada event which makes it very limited and a $$$$ event. And even then. 75 kills per epic armada is not that hard to overcome.
In 15 minutes, a player can easily kill more than 75 ships.
Usually, cross server LBs increase shards, not other rewards.
Shows the point gain at the top, but doesn't add any
I get that, which is why I specifically mentioned shard count, not other rewards that donāt help unlocking Janeway
It should be relatively the same difficulty except for the top few. T50 in the old SLB is 6 shards, T100 in the new XSLB is 6 shards.
Wish me luck! š
I'm not getting points for starting eclipse Armadas š
You'll need to start armadas using regular directives.
Do exchange armardas count ?
Sure there is? Your alliance just has to run 40-50 more rare or epic armadas than the alliances who had a head start. If that seems like a crazy high number, then you probably aren't in an alliance that would be competing for a top spot anyways.
Nope.
Yep, restarted game entirely and it shows the change. Interesting. Second time they've adjusted scoring mechanics of this thing
First was the addition of the borg officers sourcing = scoring, lol.
im at a similar pointscore and people have already gone up 25k extra 
25k hostiles? š¤
think about 6k hostiles
š¤
ive just given up this event lol, i aint gonna try catching them
yeah, they royally screwed most of us
why should we accept 3 weeks of events and 3 pvp events being pointless XD
seems bad for the people who bought ultra recruits too
The whole point about isolytic scoring in this AlB was to include the new feature so those who engaged in the content and can get more isolytic damage would easily crush the event. Now it's about who hoarded more directives. Hard pass.
More like it's about who lucked out enough to score massive points before they screwed over anyone that wasn't on
Yeah, agreed, but meant the original intent. Then of course scoring doesn't work (shocking) and the weekend intern decided to pull the scoring. Great job .
Thanks alot scopely. Now the event is broken.
And I bet they try and offer some cheap compensation too
bet they don't offer any at all
"the event didn't run long enough to cause any point discrepancies"
/looks at the 100k+ already on the score board and continue to rise
yup, no discrepancy at all.
What a joke. We all spend thousands on a game and it donāt even work right then they mess with the points system in the middle of the event and screw everyone.
not middle, but far enough along that anyone that was killing before the switch will have gotten a lot of points
a quote i used on another channel on here the other night: āYou can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can't please all of the people all of the timeā scopleys take on this "we dont care if please anyone at any time "
Well they aināt getting my money anymore until they can actually have the game work like it should. Iām into 5 figures on this game
Iso damage is not working on freebooters
it was disabled, but not before a bunch of alliances managed to bank 100k or more points putting anyone that didn't at virtually no chance of catching up
The iso artifact checks for the presence of buffs at the beginning of the round. It won't check again mid-round to see if there's an active status effect.
How many storyline points should we have after todayās events are done.
Thanks.
Yup
Anyone here shocked that @pseudo rune and @modest frost arenāt around to explain the stealth charge to scoring in the Armada ALB event?
Itās the weekend so I donāt expect them around, although would have been nice to have an announcement
Why do you even need it explained
Their actions speak loudly enough donāt they
They didnāt want it to score
Prob shoulda done that before making the event but hey ā¦š
If $copley operates the game and takes our money on the weekend, then someone from the company should be here to deal with matters like this.
If you donāt want to work weekends, donāt operate your business on weekends. Itās that simple
So youād like them to shut the game down on weekends ?
š
Iāll take that as a yes š
So you think itās great that thereās nobody from $copley available because of āweekendā. And you believe itās a great way to run a business.
I asked if youād like them to shut it down if they canāt be here. Thatās all.
š¤·āāļø
False premise in your statement. They can be here. They chose not to
You could choose not to play on weekends?
Games basically a job now anyways. Mon-Fri/9-5 š¤£
Also, dealing with things and communicating them differ. They did deal with it - they changed it on the backend. Their communication team simply doesnāt work on weekends.
Iām glad youāre happy with the no weekend coverage. Keep spending your money to support this š
8-10 š 14h job
Morpheus maybe if you buy more packs theyāll work on weekends for you.
Games more like 4-11 lol 19hrs
Also, a side but related question, why are people so impatient that they canāt wait a few days to hear about why a company did something?
You must be applying for a job at $copley. No other way to explain your genius here
Yes because not agreeing with you 100% in every way means I must be applying for a job at scopely.
Well, you got me.
Thought you were employee of the month already?
@sacred seal kindly donāt bypass automod
Morpheus let it go bro. Stuff happens, not that big of a deal
Thatās how good I am. I got it before I even started.
Thank you
š
Lol my b NB, was trying to see how creative I could be š
And it was for July too right?
You can try all you want, if Automod doesnāt catch it a live mod will and we wonāt be as kind š¬š¬
Oh damn. Ok. Thx for the heads up
Isolytic damage doesn't work on event anymore? What the heck.
Oh yes, but not before a bunch of alliances wracked up a bunch of points.
The true Scopely way
He is a Nat
The Janeway XSLB today was supposed to be SLB according to the calendar! š”
Typical scopely way...events don't score, change the calender, change how an event scores after it starts....just another day at stfc
@silver pike so how does one get isolytic damage on there regular ships cuz i have the artifact for isolytic damage for a interceptor but its not showing on my ships information tab
Because it isnāt a part of the ships
The only artifact that will change the iso dmg % on the ship stats page is "Borg queens remains". So if you don't have that then the % won't change.
So there's no research or anything that adds iso damage to ships?
So i have to have iso damage first
For the UC artifacts to actually work?
No. The UC artifacts are ship and status specified, and only trigger during combat thus won't affect displayed ships stats.
Borg queens remains are a genic all round buff that active all the time, thus is displayed in the ships stats page.
does the isolytic tokens disappear after this event or will it stick around
Oh ok i see that the artifact is working i just checked my battle report and it showed the 1 round that had hull breach also has iso damage
Not sure actuslly. Iād spend them tho
When will we be able to redeem Offensive Protocol Commendation points? I have 36k burning a hole in my pocket
Depends if someone remembers last minute, like incursions or XSLBs
@jolly sun not the answer I was looking for, but ...
Delta data 6
Last month of the arc
Whenever that is
A month or two probably
is syndicate advancement on a regular schedule rotation? I don't see it in the event chart.. so i never know when it's coming.
They never list it
Along with a bunch of other stuff, we keep bringing it up, they keep leaving it out
Itās easy to plan for.. just donāt collect syndicate claims until after event reset.. then it doesnāt matter when it drops
Not worth it in any case, crap rewards and have to pay to complete
voyager storyline arc quests i havnt missed 1 day did all the events in storyline but its showing 19 points
1 more day
ok ty
this month's have been bad, but some previous ones could get you f2p tal a month early
saved me a ton of time on the hirogen elite grind
the upcoming officer flash pass should unlock tal for people not doing the syndicate event, but if you'd been T1'ing the last few you could have Tal F2P already, and he's been very handy for this past month
So what do we do with the crystals from the alb there's only 2 unlocks a half voyager and full Harry which both cost 50
Choose 1 or the other š¤£
Yeah but I get 50 from story event then potentially 10 from alb so stuck with 10 that can't be spent
Guess it will fester and rot like all the other currencies we have
its got to be hard for them coming up with all the new currencies to milk the player base as much as possible
who knows with scopley they are like the wind one minute blowing this way the next who knows
ugh
I unlocked Tal early thanks to syndicate events. Heās been a lifesaver for grinding hirogen skulls
Why didn't Scopely just put this in a gift chest instead of making an event card for 3 days?
My guess is they made it joinable so people can choose not to get the Pride/Trans icons. I guess they expected people to complain about the fact they put them in the game and/or forcing it on people.
I still want first. š
Mass contributions is easier at lower levels.
I think a solo rogue alliance will win this.
Rewards are same for all levels, so who cares who wins?
This is very clearly just so they can avoid people complaining about being forced to get those icons.
glory in hf lol
This is why I will never spend another penny on this game.
^ Thus proving my point on why it was opt in
one player clicking joins the whole alliance...
Lol
What is the point of that event?
Scopeley is professing it's fielty to the Alphabet Mafia.
Amazing how much hate gay people get from Star Trek fans of all things.
I do not think its aimed at gay people tho
it's not gay people getting hate, it's scopely
Also, why not give it in a chest lmao
And why would you hate Scopely for it if you didn't hate gay people first?
Pointless alb this
Yeah, it should have just been a chest.
I will not bend to the Alphabet Mafia.
Just because people do not like an event like this, does not mean they hate gay people.
Alphabet mafia?
its not about hating gay people its more to do with pushing an idology down peoples throats
Yes Mafia.
Seriouslyā¦.u never updated this event šš
I donāt know what that is, whatās an alphabet mafia?
Apparently we didnāt pay attention to bud light
lol
I wasn't referring to people talking about the event being pointless thanks to the scoring or anything like that. I was referring to the inevitable flood of people (who have already arrived) that very clearly are pretending it's totally not gay people they hate.
No one's pushing any ideology down anyone's throats. It is a Vulcan philosophy that can be ignored just like any other in this game.
i think you are wrong and clueless because you see it from a biased point of view
Running a 3 day event for this is a little OTT considering 'everyone's a winner'. A free gift with the rewards would have done for those that wished to use it.
people expressing their dislike for the pride stuff doesnt mean that they hate gay. It just means that they dislike the pride stuff ..
For me, it doesnt even make sense to be proud of something you havent achieved.
Sure
Why they didn't just send out a chest with the avatars is beyond me..
remember mate this is the world lol
Except the most vocal about it tend to be people that hate the LGBT community in some way.
And? it's not forced on you to use an avatar. Join the event if your team wants to, but you don't have to.
We had no choice, one person pressed join
Leave your alliance if it matters so much.
no, we hate shoving that stuff into our face, forcing us to limit speech, accepting ridiculous ideologies.
I'm the admiral
nice deflect from the point of your first statement
Can we get a way to opt out of the pride event without leaving our alliance? ... I don't particularly want to participate in a political movement that actively hates everything about me
My statement stands, no one forced you to do anything. It's part of Vulcan philosophy, like many other alien philosophies, people don't have to follow any ideology they don't want to.
Didnt give people much of a choice. Everyone in the alliance has the ability to join on behalf of the alliance. Literally a massive eff you to anyone who doesnt necessarily agree with certain aspects of the current culture
I appear to be stuck on Delta Data 6 (choose your path) as there's no delta adversary section in the event store. Any ideas?
One person hits the join. Alliance is in, even if leadership doesnt want to join
If you do not want the rewards, leave the alliance for the 8h cooldown, and you'll be right as rain.
"Accepting ridiculous ideologies" like what? That LGBT people exist?
Again, it amazes me that people who claim to like Star Trek of all things complain about stuff like this.
i didnt know "that LGBT people exist" is an ideology
ya guys dont complain just shut up and no questions
see, so much for free speech š
Please be respectful in these discussions.
don't score, you won't get the reward
If at the end you get an avatar that you do not want, then contact CS about it. They've removed avatars from player accounts before.
Bet these haters will start targeting TRANSports now
good luck, you most likely scored before even knowing of the event
Just leave your alliance if you hate it so much.
Agreed haters should self exile
but who are the haters? those that disagree or those that disagree with the disagreers...
Hey Scopely! Keep the SJW garbage to yourself please. Thanks! š
at least i'm using arguments instead of accusations and insults. who of us is the true hater?
btw, i didnt even say that i want to opt out
the most aggressive people are usually those in support for movements, not nessessarily the ones affected themself
I like that if you don't want to partake, you're a hater. It can't merely be that you don't identify as LGBTQ+ and therefore do not want to take their pride away from them
But that's never why people complain...
@pastel topaz Your making a prejudgment about every complainer, aka being prejudice. That's a rather hateful hurtful comment
people complain because ideologies pushed onto them. People dont like that.
People like you are one of the reasons, because you try to suppress everyone elses opinion
The complaints about stuff like this pretty much always devolve and become people who hate using some way/"logic" to hide what/who they actually hate.
Have you noticed that Mothers Day is NOT recognized Scoply? Completely demeaning to to women.
"Oh, it's not that I hate gay people, it's that I hate Scopely for including something about gay people"
I'm not a hater! That's why I'm screaming about an optional avatar on a web forum! Im TOLERANT AND OUTRAGED!!11
Yes it is, as is Fathers day. Today happens not to be Mothers day though..
@pastel topaz so it's ok for you to hate people who disagree with you. But it's not ok for people disagree with a lifestyle. Not liking or agreeing with a lifestyle does not = hate
Point is if we want to be inclusive then HONOR ALL PEOPLE.
As long as people are respectful to one and other they do not have to agrws
Actually no
Considering the whole thing is them just using pride to make money off of it....
If you want to be inclusive you should avoid exclusion . It's physically impossible to actively invite inude and honor everyone
How isnt everyone already?
i am respectful to individuals, not to a group of ideologists who try to suppress other peoples opinions
Still confused what mothers day has to do with it
So when does this show in the event store? š¤·āāļø
Have I done anything other than pointed out it's disguised hate?
People are complaining because it was included, not because it was pushed on them. ST has a lot of philosophies in it, from Andorian to Klingon and back. Adding one more is not pushing.
Is something for mens mental health awareness month being added?
but thats kinda pushing it onto them though, its not optional if they have one way or another kind of interaction.
The issue is the amount you encounter of that stuff, so that people get tipped of by little things already
He's a mod, not a dev. He's not told what's coming in the future, really.
Would you like something like that added? You can ask one of our CMs for more inclusivity.
imho, activist groups seperate the people, not unite them
@pastel topaz your prejudice only allows you to see it as hate. So yes it's a problem because you are being hateful
it should be
Please let's not compare people like that.
have you looked into a mirror lately?
@desert laurel Then stop his open gate rhetoric
Father Day honored. Veterans Day honored, president honored, pride day honored BUT Mothers are ignored. So please explain how "all are included "
Either recognize ALL real world holidays or NONE.
like recently i was called racist by a black lady for not seeing the skin color. i never got a response for asking if "not seeing the skin color" shouldnt be the ultimate goal
Maybe missed it, assume they were store things - was Veterans Day and the President in some way honored?
just like i dont care if anyone is gay
and would you actually say that a Pack added into the store at full price is being honored?
Literally you are allowing an entire forum to prejudice anyone who disagree s and allowing their hate speech but then you tune me up for a legit comparison. @tacit geyser said he is offensive to people who disagrees with and you said nothing
@desert laurel So moderate and silence the hate, but if you single out again for asking for people to be respectful I can only assume that means you are not interested in fairness. I've already screen shotted your comments and lack of comment
So moderate and silence the hate
Go offline, the hate will be gone. Well not for you obviously.
Y'all screaming and justifying your hate by saying someone else is hateful. It's terrible.
you could just, you know, not be hateful.
i have not seen a hateful comment of @forest rapids
You can edit a comment to correct a typo.
And as for the icon in question just make it a free claim to all. Those who want take, those who don't, dont
Is that a bug? No matter what place, same reward??
... but what is hateful, saying I DONT WANT TO be included in your party or saying YOU HAVE TO be included in my party?
there is no winning this arguement, there is no changing peoples minds
Then I probably got the wrong name because of scrolling (someone was definitely being hateful and using an out of line comparison). if that's so I apologize to @forest rapids
They effectively did. Itās depressed up as an ALB, but in practical terms itās a total freebie.
theres still a chance i skipped reading it š
Or that it was deleted.
only with heavy moderation where every comment has to be approved first š
Not necessary. I believe we can be respectful enough with eachother to not devolve into that.
Please. Do go on. What ideology is being pushed down your throat.
i'd like to hope so, but both sides can be a little extreme at times.
imho, supporters of movement are easily tripped off and calling you names by just saying you dont support it
just releaset the IDIC avatars or what ever no need to add stuff to it
There is ignorance and hate on both sides, those saying leave your alliance... leave the alliance Ive been in for possibly years and abandon the people Ive developed friendships with (some might be straight, some gay, some white, some black, some men, some women...) because of an event they dont have a choice with and those saying scopely shouldnt have put this event in the game. There is nothing wrong with the event. The implimentation(?) and responses to this event are the issues. Direct your complaints there, not at the people playing the game or moderators.
Iām all earsā¦what is this āridiculous ideologyā you refer toā¦?
Can request to have the avatars removed if people feel that strongly - CS Ticket.
You can rejoin your alliance after the 8 hour cooldown. No one said you had to leave it forever, just that leaving would mean you don't get ALB rewards.
All they had to do was leave their Marxist BS political agenda out of the game, but they couldn't. This all stops when we say no more.
Where have you got Marxist from ?
Reminds me of that Mythic Quest episodeā¦just put them on their own server, lol.
pretty much every political ideology
It's canon
Anyone using Marxist or Ideology to describe this has lost the plot
I support this event ā¦. Good for Scopely šš„ā¤ļø
Marxism: deconstruct everything, force compliance on the mases.
That's because you're a sheep, exactly the way they want you.
I would like you to go and research actual Marxism and come back after
I would like you to read Karl Marx first, then try to tell me that I'm wrong.
raising people on a podium ends in competition, not equality
Youāre playing a game based on a society where everyoneās needs are met and there is no moneyā¦and now youāre complaining about āMarxist ideologyāā¦?
š¤£
Dudeā¦come onā¦stop with the personal nonsenseā¦
Do you not realize star trek is a futuristic socialist utopic vision?
well, marxism is the opposite of the post scarcity society of the federation in star trek.
Star Trek the series/games that promote equality and acceptance at its forefront.
Talk about yikes
for me it always promotes conflict š
No feelings one way or the other on the event, I just wish Iād spotted that all the rewards were the say before dropping so many billions of parsteel as alliance donations š
Always read the whole event first, lol.
Conflict resolution, the series was based around the Federation who always sought out peace, accepting differences and trying to work with everyone they could and the respect them/leave them alone when it wasnt possible.
Lol, youāre right, but nothing lost really, I would have donated it anyway to complete my dailies etc
conflict resolution without name calling? clearly not set in the 21st century.
if this were truly inclusive there would be more options.
instead there are only 2.
Agreed I want a culber stamets make-out avatar
Federation always sought out peace? Um, okay
I have, and you are.
Love the event. Hope to see more like it in the future. āļø
Do we watch the same shows?
I know I'm going to use the new avatar, and anybody who has a problem with it on my server, I'll just blow their ship up lol.
They can always add more later.
That would be awesomeā¦!
I'm suddenly reminded of the Disco klingons
Opening scene from the first episode of Star Trek: Discovery. Klingon with English subtitles.
Who felt joining a coalition was going to destroy them. XD
Week 5 of of Threat from Beyond with no level 32 swarms to do the event.... come on Scopley fix it or nix it...
Will the storyline ALB today grant the last point for it as well, or are you SOL at 19/20?
The previous ALB granted a point
Todays SMS event will give 20/20
Yeah, just want to know if today's ALB will as well, since I will be at 19/20 after the SMS
No it wonāt. 19/20 was yesterday
So the ALB won't give a point
No
As far as I know š¤·āāļø
It will, it's part of this card.
it does say "score in Milestone or Leaderboard" though, also they had a compensation event, so technically you should get 21/20
i remember i was pretty mad at that because we stopped an alliance that declared war on us from completing one event
the compensation meant that the effort was in vain
Sorry it is scoring
Yes it does sorry š
Greetings and salutations there today. Does anybody know if the TEMPORAL ANOMALY - SMS event is going to be thay exact same like 11 days ago. Im regards to awarding the 20,000 points necessary to complete the INTREPID EXPLORER requirements? If this has already been asked...my apologies. Still new here...relatively.
If I may be so bold, it didn't award me or one of my teammates any points whatsoever that very last time. Because of due diligence, and commitment, (and $0 dollars spent BTW) we had been sitting at rank 1 and 2 respectively. We didn't exactly need tl catch up. But then were passed by like 13 people! If we're in store for more of that "new cellular customer" logic of only awarding the points for the new customers/people trailing behind in the leaderboards for "catch up" purposes, as opposed to the loyalty, commitment, dedication, and non-spending inducing tactics each day that I've been employing for the past 20 days, it would be nice to know now early on. I'll just wait until we both bottom out past a certain rank, and then complete the prerequisites later on tonight.
It's not exactly the same, but how it affects other events is not known to me.
It should increment the meta SMS even if you're caught up. The SLB will probably work the same as the old event, but not sure there.
I swear on my life that I did not receive the extra 20,000 points the very (and only other) last time TEMPORAL ANOMALY was available.
Neither did my team mate. So I appreciate your response first of all. Thank you for this. However....I am very weary of this again for obvious reasons.
I don't think knowing either way will advantage you. I'd just do the events and see where you end up.
What
This is NOT a humble brag or regular brag whatsoever...but we've both been sitting (with effort mind you) at rank 1 and 2 respectively since about day 3 of this event. So I can PERHAPS see why we didn't need to "catch up" last week, and then get the extra 20k pts, but I mean...c'mon... There are/were only 2 spots for the SILVER BLOOD demon class avatar frame.
So all that effort was simply undermined, and possibly might be again today???
Either way, I appreciate your response. I'll just play it safe and wait until I dip below rank 8 or something later on tonight. Then participate in TEMPORAL ANOMALY so that I cam "catch up" essentially.
Thank you. Appreciate your time. š¤š½šš½šš½
to be fair for intrepid explorer you can just buy battle pass points and win
so don't get your hopes up lol
also love the extra avatar i can't get unless i don't get harry
FtP player.
sorry i didn't mean you in the specific sense, but like any player
see if you can spot the paid player
It is a dilemma. Ensign Kim......or the game that Naomi Wildman and Seven would play together....?
i don't particularly need a 10% chance of morale
Personally speaking....i would go after the loveable Ops officer. šš½
I have 821,134 points without spending anything, lol.
That amount of points just means they got 1st on 2 of the PvP events and ~2nd on the third.
well they had the paid pass frame last week
and that much of a lead as well
so idk exactly what they did but they definitely bought out the pass
Paid pass wouldn't give more points, it'd just give them the bottom row pass rewards.
754,128 here without spending. - rank 7. Our first in my braket has 805k,
maybe they rushed to get some other reward then that my bracket can't do
They scored in the pvp events to get more Borg officers than you did.
The biggest difference on the Intrepid SLB is from winning the PvP SLBs. ~820k is if you won it each time, more or less.
did higher brackets get more shards? so he got more from a different SLB? that's kinda genius
I'm telling you all on my LIFE if we could go back in time 10 days ago. Temporal Anomaly only awarded the extra bonus points if you weren't in the top 3. Which my teammate and I weren't sitting at. And the hostile killing options ONLY became available yesterday.
my bracket ends at 23 and he boosted to 28 by now lol
It's a contest, not a f2p contest. And you could earn pts from opening recruits.
This picture is 2 days old. My phone is old, and crashy right now...and I haven't slept yet. (I'm on Pacific time) I don't have the fortitude to go back into the game and get w new screenshot....but it's safe to say...were not at the top anymore.
F2P doesn't even factor into it. I'm 1st on my Interpid SLB and I didn't pay anything to get there.
I just won the PvP events.
Thanks for bringing that to my attention.
Trust me...WE BOTH PULLED Borg shards!
Which hostile I must defeat to complete storyline event?
Today, it's all of them Shad.
Thank you to all the players who repsonded. Thanks to the Mod for stating that which I had already suspected. $$$$
Take care all and enjoy the rest of your Sunday and remaining weekend.
Burn the galaxy:
@jaunty marlin I'm telling you. The last time this event rolled around, I (we) did NOT get credit for this event's completion, other than the 1 Torres officer shard. No points towards INTREPID EXPLORER.
This was in reply to Shad's question about storyline events.
@jaunty marlin I figured. I was just also stating that for me and my teammate, the last time this event rolled around....we did not see hide nor hair of those points outside of it's own self contained event. It was also only a meager 15 killls/15 points necessary to achieve that one solitary Torres shard. And that was the only reward received period for the 2 of us. I didn't ask the 3rd place guy. We don't get along.
Just one last parting discrepancy. My team mate doesn't use Discord. Notice no hostile kills/points metric on this one. That's all. šš½ Love the consistency.
The kills giving points was added recently, that is true.
It was yesterday it was added, I think.
@pastel topaz they were taken the same day curiously enough. Yes, Dark link. Yesterday morning after the 24 hr event/Meta refresh.
It's not the only thing that was added. The borg shards metric was added after start as well.
As stated above, also aware of that. I personally pulled 46 shards. She pulled 17. ALSO as stated above... we'll just wait until all the PEOPLE within the 20,000 pts window of competition exhaust their AWAY TEAMS BP and TEMPORAL ANOMALY SMS completions today. Then we'll try this "broken" event again for the 2nd time this Arc. šš½ Thank you Scopely!!!!
I donāt figure out, always ends BP on Sunday? No points on mondays?
No more, or in my case zero, money will be given to the "machine". The new Saudi proprietors can find it elsewhere.
Dead day, buffer time, call it what you will.
Just another mining monday
I'm way on top of my Intrepid Explorer SLB because I won the Armada SLB twice without spending. I had a massive stockpile of solo directives from punching way up. Each win was worth close to 100k points between the Isolytic artifact shards and officer shards.
I see Scopely have put online prices up by £10 shame Scopely
Could be international currency exchange. Scopely is USA based. So a that could be USA to UK currency conversion
@abstract gate they can excuse it in any way they want it was Ā£89.99 now itās Ā£99.99 itās as simple as that
This is a very common practice in the gaming industry⦠And even most business industries .... prices change when currency values change
If the currency of your country gets weaker, when currency is converted, a company doesn't make as much money unfortunately. That's just international economics which is unfortunate.
Itās a Ā£10 increase no matter what the reason
Then I would blame your country economy and currency versus the developers.
That's something that is beyond developer control
Itās cool it just means I keep my money and wonāt be giving it to Scopely and why do you look like Nowonshall?
Tbh I have a feeling its just Scopely being greedy š
Having it a little cheaper on the Webstore was very nice, but going up has put me off spending my usual
the £ didnt weaken that much that it needed to go up like that
True. A company doesn't have to use currency exchanges. They can switch to regional pricing. However, it cuts into profits, but I don't think this company needs to worry about profits either.
and it uses xolla, so unless their contract/cuts were changed then its just more income for them
Yeah just the normal Scopely greed
Where are the delta adversary event 6 option in the event store? Cannot complete the event which end today its out those!
That's just a bug, you can't complete the event and weren't meant to see it at all. Details are in #ā-official-announcements
help me understand the IDIC event... wouldnt giving us all a "Gift" accomplished the same goal of unless Scopely is continuing to say you really need to be a part of an alliance to play this game???
Being a part of an alliance is one of the very first tasks given to new players. It should be considered a requirement to play game.
Yes. Feedback was sent Scopely way on how its been done
it seems silly to create an event where all 1000 alliance placings get exactly the same prize... especially since they have such a hard time (at times) to actually score stuff in real time. š But that's the systems programmer/admin in me coming out telling people they are overtaxing the system needlessly because of the way they want to implement something.
Itās essentially a free gift. Are you actually arguing against free giftsā¦?
U2 - Songs of Innocence
Surely a gift would be something that someone actually wanted?
yeah, like that U2 album
Judging on my in-laws at Christmas, noooooooo š¤£
š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£
Iām happy with it. šš
nope... but its a really ODD way to give a gift... i.e. score an event for an entire day and dont let us have the gift until the scoring (which is 100% useless and a system drain) is done....
Ok. What can I sayā¦if this is the major frustration of your weekend, you live one hell of a privileged life, lolā¦just enjoy itā¦š
i dont like oddities... š but u r right... this doesnt even rank in the top 100
Apparently, the event ends on the same day the Stoenwall riots happened, so that seems to be the choice for the timing there.
Not sure why it wasn't just a free gift on that day, though.
What is going on with the Delta Adversary event? I donāt have any thing in the event shop to complete it.
its a rerun of previous months event for people that didnt do it or possibly didnt see it, etc (Delta Adversary)... if you did it previously, you wont see anything more
The Delta Adversary 6 SMS is a bug, and you should not have seen the event at all. Ignore it, it can't be completed. More details are in #ā-official-announcements
I'm 1 point short of completing Storyline Events, but I'm 99.99999% sure I haven't missed an event, anyone else in the same boat?
The ALB should finish it tomorrow if that's the case, though it does mean you either missed an event or it glitched.
I hope you're right, cheers! š
I have 2 accounts, one has finished, the other hasn't, which I find strange.
I guess it's possible my mini account didn't score in a previous ALB event.
Yes it will
Phew! Cheers guys, I want those 50 Voyager BPs! š¤£
I think they give you enough events to go past by 2 or 3 points.
It would be finished today, so the ALB adding another point will help some that missed one
Yeah I just finished it a bit ago
Iām short 2 points
You must've missed some events unfortunately
For those that didn't finish all the events and get the extra 50 BPs here's what it looks like in dock.
Why you canāt buy the 50 BP at level 31? I know itās a 34 ship, but I have voyager refinery to get BPs too.
Anyone else have issuew ithe not getting points in the Janeway Heroic SLB for Mats, but getting them for Mats in the XSLB?
you answered your own question
ehm no? What is the reason that I can't buy BPs in the event shop? I have already unlocked the Voyager refinery, so I should be able to buy BPs in the shop as well.
Scopelys choice.
When do we get Tuvok sourcing? After incursionz/voyager part 3?
his is not even an officer, probably comes next month with pt.3
Youāre ops 31. Itās ops 34.
You answered your own question š
Is the refinery letting you buy BPs? Generally most ship BPs arenāt buyable from event stores until 1 level before you can use them, i think.
yes you can buy Voyager BPs from level 30 in the refiniery
Weird then, seems Scopely really donāt want you to have it in less than 100 days
Hey Guys, anyone heard if there will be a Borg event anytime soon?
I just need One point
Do you see those pins around the dock, they are for extra ship's to dock, but "Scopley" doesn't recognize that at All...š¤
Not doable? Why not?
It's such a sad thing that we can't check the previous storyline events to see if we actually DID them..!!
Oh yeah unfortunately finishing this also requires some things from previous content
Some of the gain power events for it too were also difficult especially for free players who couldn't spend the G3 and G4 resources
Clearly they wanted to push the free people to spend to get those lobi crystals for Voy
Ring-fencing sucks
But there were 2 compensation events that gave bonus points. and there is also the ongoing ABL that also counts when time is up.
There were 2 bonus events (kill 40 enemies) ... one last week, one yesterday
only the "kill 15 Hostiles" was announced as compensation event though, the "kill 40 Hostiles" event is not. You will end at 21/20 if you completed all.
Only 1 was an extra event.
I only need one more point. š¤š¼
But why i had 20/20 yesterday before killing the 40 enemies and finishing the ALB?
Anyone know if the Lobi Crystals will carry over to the next BP of if we have to use them for this one? @pseudo rune @modest frost
āredeem offensive protocol ā ends at reset.. still no way to redeem it. nothing in the event store !
you need to wait until after August 8th
(or possibly september)
Delta Adversary 6 was showing up in the bucket due to a bug. It is not completable if that's the only thing in there, and you should ignore it.
Milsup is rarely worth doing. If it works for you, it's free mats. But it is a lot of work, and very skippable.
They had two makeup events. After you get a 28 ship at a decent tier, 500 kills over three days for milsup is ok. Before that itās terrible.
Iām currently holding off on upgrades to the fc center and artifact gallery. Has there ever been precedent for them to run one of those random upgrade events between arcs, or have they only sprung those during arcs? Thanks!
Delta adversary!! Wtf
They've run a building upgrade months after introduction of the building. Treasury was the big one that comes to mind.
Are we EVER going to get another megacube event between battlepasses or am I holding on to my borg officer promotions for no reason? Seriously, it's been a LONG time...
Would they do it in between arcs? Iām thinking I can upgrade fc at least, then gather more upgrade items and hold again
This Iām not so sure about. With the intro of the Vidar-Talios, mega cubes are kinda broken. I donāt know how they could do another borg event as they were
It is too rarely done to plan for that. Even the extra upgrade Voyager event this month was a surprise that caught a bunch off guard.
For reference, our alliance did a megacube with horrible crews and lower levels mixed in. It wasnāt that hard to win
Megacubes were pretty broken even before the Talios, my alliance of mostly late-30s, early-40s ops levels has no problems knocking them out the last time around.
I've forwarded the request for more borg mini-arcs before and they seemed receptive to the idea, but have not seen the event run since.
why is there still 24hr left for the Storyline Event if we aren't getting one today? š¦ I'm 1 short
Ok good to know I'm not the only one, it's one of the only sources for some of the epic officers
Well consider this a request for more then, if they're receptive, maybe demand will move the needle. Thanks for the reply!
To give time for players to get the pt from the ALB. It's not intended to have another event today.
QQ makes sense, but i was counting on one more to finish
Busted Ass on this BP, got no officer and half a ship. This is ridiculous.
I was wondering myself about the time limit for the storyline event, I'm 2 short
Unfortunately it sounds like you'll remain short to finish it. The event only had enough buffer to miss two events, if you missed them at the right time, otherwise, the most you could miss was one.
Today there are ticketed events open from yesterday to play. I ran out of tickets so I was going to lurcashe a pack to find there are none for purchase. @pseudo rune @modest frost you are missing out on purchases without having a ticket pack available Today.
Please fix before 5 pm central if possible
Disappointing that the extra lobi crystals cannot be converted into additional voy BPs or officer shards š¦
Do tetryons not do it for you?
Why would you need an additional voyager?
you only get half the BPs needed, full unlock still month away
Oh I thought you meant you wanted more than one ship (it looks like the other person wanted more than one ship)
not me per se, but I agree it would be nice to be able to exchange it for something more useful than tetryons š
Two voyagers is twice the mining speed. š
Actually that's a very very good point that I hadn't considered. However you would burn through those tokens twice as fast. You're still gated from the juice to spawn 8472
Although if you're whale, then I guess it wouldn't matter because then you could just buy the juice
I somehow ended up with two Cerritos ships, and unfortunately the game will not let me disassemble one of them lol
Yeah, easier to find a use for multiple miners than buffing ships. Though one of mine is bugging lately, could use another buffer at times.
I can't even buff with my defiant because that is still broken
"Client resources desynchronized"
Hope they fix that bug again soon.
Hopefully doesn't affect me and mine again, i guess we lucked out and didn't get the rollback
Any idea when the event store will open? Tomorrow?
For what currency?
The end of arc event store should open during the last part of an arc, probably next tuesday, not this one for sure. And if it's not next tuesday, then it'd be in August, probably.
What event store do you mean? If for voyager arc, it wouldnāt be for a week (one week of flashpass between arcs). And Iām not convinced the voyager arc is 3 months only. Chakotay and Tuvok are referenced in the missions, plus there are others weād like to see. So could be a 4 or even 5 part arc
Iām guessing itās at least 4 months. They will milk this arc for as much $$ as possible, so more parts makes sense for them.
These protocol commendations I think heās talking about, there was a cryptic message in the 1st Arc about a mini store for them
As we got two different named protocols Iām sure they are not for the end of arc mega store
it will an event store running at the same time as the mega store, like they did for the spy thing in ds9 arc
This is it. I expect two event stores when the last part of the arc runs.
Yep I want my one rare shard, they aināt getting away with it š¤£
no idea
Why does 93 need a bye week?
We haven't had incursions yet
So you donāt need a bye week
You will be in this run
oh ok so incurssions will run this week?
I see it now missed it at the bottom of the annoucement. Friday the 30th
So 52 is on the no incursions list, but we are merging into 53 which was not on the list. So are we having incursions?
If you're going to give everyone the rewards, why go to the trouble of making an ALB? Why not just send out a gift chest? All you've done is add even more pop up banners to the game that desperately needs to get rid of those.
I do not see the Talios listed
How long does a server have to wait for incursions?
New server?
And will we get the comp chest this time and event store or just another gtfo lol
Not really anymore we have like 13 ops 39
Its like 4 months
Last month we got bye. No comp chest and no event store but got xlsb and alb pre-incursion.
Like 94 must be 6 months at this point if 96 is 4.
Seems like long waits. For seemingly no good reason?
You donāt meet the requirements
Shouldn't it be BY week instead of bye week, as in "passed by"
Amplified by the lack of bye month chest and incursion event store.
Incursions is an ops 25+ event. If you donāt have enough ops 25+ why make your entire server suffer for 24h?
Idk š¤·āāļø
Its not suffering. Thats what pvp brackets are for.
Can lobi crystals only be spent now or will there be the possibly to spend them later?
So you are telling me a server with 10 ops 25ās and 30 ops 30-39ās can take on a server with 200 ops 25ās and 200 ops 30-39ās?
Spend them now
Given we are matched xlsb with servers right next to us. Thats a fantasy issue. Also hows it different to servers with ascension fighting non ascended servers?
Which does happen.
So totally moot debate. Also does not excuse no chest or event store
š¤·āāļø
I donāt see your point. Have a nice day
Except the PVP brackets are utterly unreasonable. Someone with a 800 million power ship should not be able to come along and smack down someone with a 65 million ship.
so we dont get the incursion because game design of pvp brackets are bad? seems reasonable.
It's an entirely messed up system and One they need to fix⦠They need to fix both PVP and the incursions.
You don't see the point that given the average growth of servers us being paired with servers right near our start time, means your arguement isn't likely to happen? interesting.
and even if it did. non-ascended servers fight ascended servers. which my point is that is worse than your scenario.
oh I agree with you btw lol lvl 60s can hit way too far down
Players aren't subject to pvp until they've matured a bit. It can be daunting to be beat up when you've first started playing, but with time, newbies become used to pvp and how to fight in this game.
