Event store back up, lovely stuff

[naive meteor]

The Doctor will serve you well...🥳

[low saddle]

@pseudo rune Thank you for bringing the v-day event store back.

[long blade]

what are the requirements for the jelly pursuit event ? i think my server does not get the event

[desert laurel]

Your server has to have sufficient population to create a competitive event. The exact reqs have not been disclosed.

[opal mantle]

Is the ISS Jellyfish worth going after? I’m trying to unlock the monavern through my alliance territory store

[celest relic]

Having the jellyfish unlocks jelly brawl event. That event is one of the best in the game as it gives tons of 4*uc gas and ship parts. Just don’t bother tiering it til you’re ready to scrap it in the 50s

https://stfc.space/events/2024-01-26/876897dea85e3ad0412a4c247406c26e434ae087/eyJzbmFwc2hvdHNEYXRlcyI6WyIyMDI0LTAxLTI2Il19?e=$s$

[opal mantle]

Ah okay thanks looks like a great event

Oof, that’s a long haul to unlock!

[sage hollow]

i wish the mission key thing wasn't so long or shorter.. so easy to forget to log into retrieve the mission key.

[open siren]

at least they give you a couple days grace, when you include the in-game weekly one

wish the BP worked like that

[bitter snow]

it'll come in time via armada chests

territory can definitely help, but I think I'd prioritise monaveen still as that's the only place to get it (ftp) rn

[opal mantle]

That was my thinking as well. But you’re saying Jelly bps show up in armada rewards? I haven’t seen that do you know if it’s specific armadas or ops level?

[bitter snow]

epic chests from 36 I think, full pull possible from 38

[opal mantle]

Oh I see that now thanks. Don’t look in that chest much cuz I rarely have the epic credits

[keen mist]

https://tenor.com/view/tired-cat-yawn-gif-8889719395111333935

[brazen hound]

Can we get lvl 60-70 their own brackets please. Especially in Materials SLB please?

Mid 50s can't compete when you can't spend 6* mats.

[keen mist]

Mid 50s is the new ftp dead weight 😂

(I'm mid 50s, so I can say it)

[sweet flame]

I hope so im short on shran too for some reason

[acoustic bear]

There is a big excess pile of 49,s I've noticed lol not moving up camped out for ever lol

On my server anyways

[haughty grotto]

Not on purpose, probably. I’ve been stuck on 49 myself forever. Takes tons of rare gas to do all the requirements to move up.

[frozen abyss]

How am I supposed to finish the mission keys event?

[acoustic bear]

@haughty grotto just hit 49 myself be moving on bye the log jam as soon as I can lol

Taking a little work to get everything up to 49 lol

[naive meteor]

It's a waste of time,
It should have been a daily claim within the Game, like all the other stuff

It's not visit another ' Website Commander Game "

[acoustic bear]

[coral niche]

It makes sense to camp on Ops49 till you can fast track to 51 for the G5 armada chests. That’s what several do/did on my server,

[acoustic bear]

@coral niche we got a ton that are pushing a year at 49 lol

Seems a bit much but I will be 2 months prolly lol

[coral niche]

9 months for me.

[plush chasm]

Anyone know when the big event comes back around?

[bitter snow]

which one?

[stable crow]

April, August, December.

[sonic gazelle]

We had 5 last year, so depends whether we get any 2 or 3 months arcs mixed in with 4 month

[abstract gate]

maybe next arc?

[sonic gazelle]

Thats what I did though I jumped 49-52 rather than park at 51. If your server has a bunch of 60+ though, might wanna hang back at 49 as long as you can if you ever want to place in any SLBs again, spend events especially, right now the bracket is 51-70 on those, pretty pointless unless you plan to drop a couple grand for a top 10 finish. IF they ever split that bracket it'll help but until then, its pretty much pointless to even try.

[sonic gazelle]

maybe, it would be nice if they would tell us how many parts each arc has when it drops. We know theres a gas mining officer yet to come so March for sure will be a part 3, only officers we're missing right now are Travis, Malcolm, Hoshi and the Doctor so potentially theres another 2 months worth of content and we haven't gotten xindi solo armadas yet so I expect that next month, yay, more armadas we didn't ask for.

[bitter snow]

oh, event store?

I'd guess March tbh

[abstract gate]

maybe the armadas are like the exborg solo so nx01 exclusive, so another thing i could igonore @sonic gazelle

[bitter snow]

officer wise, I'm finding it easier to push through on 2-3 of the SMS events than it is to compete in the SLB 😂

think I finished somewhere around 90th place on the slb, but still did the 10m score on the SMS

[sonic gazelle]

Oh I'm sure they will be, there's just do many of the fang things in game now, we really don't need another one.

[sonic gazelle]

Yeah first 1 I placed top 70 just from the sms, last week I pushed up to 49th just to get thst top 50 place so I could promote archer after the sms this weekend, provided I don't get screwed and the change it lol

[wind fog]

Can always count on $copely to screw you

[red rapids]

Any chance you can Change the Spawn rate of Exchange armadas, having to wait Approx 15 minutes, per spawn.

[dreamy patio]

more systems

there's 3 systems they can convert to 40 and add more

instead they're useless

[naive meteor]

Eclipse space is so outdated it's Ridiculous 🤦🏼‍♂️

[ornate geyser]

It’s packed for these events. They seem to have the balance about right…

[naive meteor]

Not in the L29 system it's always empty no Armada

[ornate geyser]

Untouched in our 29. Four available right now. Nobody here plays down there, they don’t score enough for the SLB.

[wind fog]

I kill transports in Penumbra cuz it’s usually less crowded but yes, armadas can be a problem

[upper atlas]

Not expecting an unscheduled armada hunt part deux this week are we?

[keen mist]

Any minute now

[warped ginkgo]

I don't understand why we have a calendar if we can't put the events on there xD I just claimed my BP syndicate xp yesterday cause I didn't see any syndicate event on the calendar 🙄

[keen mist]

Those are boneus events

[ornate geyser]

Because chunks of the calendar are decided last moment.

[wind fog]

$copely always does this, they think angering the players will get them to spend money

[ashen wharf]

and you all still do

[acoustic bear]

How

[violet thistle]

So when are you (scopely) going to fix the spawn rates on exchange mada thursdays back to the way they were before? Also, fix the formadas, as they break after every win for a few hours, please

[lethal talon]

Fusion rods are not scoring in the FT event.

[worldly dune]

They are not listed as an asset for scoring.

[lethal talon]

In the SMS they are.

Just spent 18000 and got no points.

[cunning radish]

They only score for upgrading

Not unlocking

As has always been the case with that event

[lethal talon]

Then the description is wrong. I’ve spent the rods. I should get points.

Certainly shouldn’t be ‘only if you spend them in a certain way’.

[lilac musk]

Correct. But if you think that you are playing the wrong game because scopely doesn’t care 😂

[dull pagoda]

You got the rod*

[naive meteor]

Don't have any thing to upgrade

[slate lotus]

@pseudo rune no ticket for the event today.

[icy panther]

No free event tickets and no event ticket packs.

[languid gulch]

@pseudo rune no tickets on s100 either.
Also, when will there be events/announcment on all these Xindi token rewards?

[serene forum]

it's a credit card event, very hush hush

[icy panther]

I can’t find the Store Pack either…

[nimble ibex]

when the event is halfway over

[serene forum]

they removed it from the store

it was 22.99€ for a pack with 10k.

[grim girder]

It was 2K for a random medal

[slate lotus]

@pseudo rune @midnight path there's no tickets in the gift tab.

[grim girder]

It's still up in the recruit section

[noble mural]

Same here

[stable crow]

no tickets at all, not even in the shop.

[rustic spear]

So what’s changed? No tickets this time. Or did someone forget to send out. Not cool

[sacred pollen]

yay another pay to to win event

https://tenor.com/view/scopely-money-gif-14124393094162907114

[fiery fulcrum]

Looks like a bad lottery. Another month where the arc doesn't unlock the rare officers when you get the BP. Scopely must be hurting for money.

[real tusk]

Did they actually make the gamble officer store pack even more gamble?

[urban crown]

no free ticket no life

https://tenor.com/view/give-me-some-free-tickets-dwayne-johnson-the-rock-seven-bucks-get-me-some-tickets-free-of-charge-gif-27352300

[ornate geyser]

More friigin gacha…

[drifting juniper]

Any kind of ETA on tickets showing up?

[sage bronze]

They show up in time so you won’t be able to get a fourth pull. 😉

[drifting juniper]

That would make me grumpy 🤣

[fiery fulcrum]

83% chance of getting pure trash

[grim girder]

96,5% chance of a single shard or trash.

[obsidian narwhal]

Like hell anyone would consider getting a pack with odds like that 😂

[fiery fulcrum]

You're right, T2 is a single shard.

3.5% chance of getting anything worthwhile.

[sage bronze]

I’m wondering how this is considered to be different from loot boxes, that have been banned for a while now.

Those Xindi chase packs are in the store now.

[ornate geyser]

At $4/pull.

[grim girder]

120$ for a good pull , give or take.

[eternal hound]

Event store odds are trash....

Better off going to publix buy lotto

[prisma oak]

free tickets are in

[ornate geyser]

I don’t consider $120 for a rare officer a good pull, personally. At 1.5% for T4+ it’s more like….$266 for a good pull.

I think that’s about what I paid for a week on the beach in Nicaragua last time, lol.

[woeful prairie]

Yeah....even $20 for what is probably going to turn out to be 750 Syndicate XP.....they can't be serious......can they?

[ornate geyser]

They’re absolutely serious.

[stable crow]

the cheap pack gives 5 rolls, so 3750xp

[woeful prairie]

But still....thats a double Mantis pulls worth. Not $20 worth.

[abstract gate]

Xindi's Event store items without event or explanation on how to get those Medals. Does anyone see any event to get those?

[dreamy patio]

you buy them

[ornate geyser]

You buy packs for a Xindi coin bundle. You use those coins to make pulls on a gacha pack. What comes out of that gacha pack, you use in the cards in the event store.

[proud wing]

Looks like standard “not for poors” event

[grim girder]

You buy the tokens from the shop with cash. You then go to your officer tab to get a 3.5% chance to get T3 or better.

[ornate geyser]

It’s just a way of hiding the true cost of the pixels you’re renting.

[strange trail]

No event tickets today ?

[abstract gate]

Got it. Thanks all. Odds tell me not to buy

[ornate geyser]

That values a Syndicate tier in the upper 20s at about $1200…

[woeful prairie]

Hahahah. Wow and sounds right to me about what they think.

[ornate geyser]

Hey…somebody has to pay for Eco…🤣

[warped ginkgo]

The gambler in me thinks it's just 20$ , but I know better 😆 not gonna pay 20$ for 5 pulls of 120 recruit tokens lol

[warped ginkgo]

Guess I don't know better 😆 was worth it in the end though

[eternal hound]

Some people just lucky

It will take others 100s to get that same result

[warped ginkgo]

Definitely, it is just a glorified casino, got 3 t1, 1 t2, and this t4

[eternal hound]

1% chance for that t4 insane roll bud

Trust me wish I had that luck....could use a voyager

[warped ginkgo]

Yeah I wanna get the voyager but I'm at 40/100 for mine so not sure if worth doing or wait 10 days to buy the partial :/

[eternal hound]

Nice. I am 30/100

Definitely buying 50$ pack....losing my mind grinding these daily

[sage bronze]

Get someone with a voyager to provide you some hirogen relics.

[pallid locust]

wait this events up now ? i can not see it in my events tab and im ops 41

[proud wing]

Its a combination of pay store and event store, no events for it

[pallid locust]

so no event to get xindi chaser coins

[warped ginkgo]

Nope only pay

[pallid locust]

can't event see where to spend them coins

[warped ginkgo]

Recruit tab

[pallid locust]

well thats interesting lmao

[warped ginkgo]

It's borderline gambling, 20$ gets you 5 pulls of the slot machine 😆

[pallid locust]

ah but if you get the nx-01 coin your sorted XD

interesting they never announced this lol

[warped ginkgo]

I got the nx01 coin myself so It was def worth it for me even if it's just a voyager lol but I fear most will get 4 t1 and 1 t2

[pallid locust]

yup, is there a cool down on the pulls ?

[warped ginkgo]

No, atleast not after 5

[pallid locust]

well not gonna spend the cash for something i could get for free

[errant iron]

Anyone have any idea when the next fleet commander event is?

[naive meteor]

Nobody knows

[dreamy patio]

spend all your xp and sps

then it will happen

[ornate geyser]

You’re learning. 😊

[boreal briar]

Anyone else having issues with wave defense not scoring credits in section 31 faction

It’s scoring for battle pass but the credits aren’t showing in section 31 faction store

[iron hill]

Wow the xindi chase pack was a waste of $50, I got tier 1 coins every single time

[sharp rock]

You basically bought a lottery ticket

[acoustic bear]

You can trade them in for faction or syndicate xp lol

[rancid juniper]

Hey guys, how do I acquire these tokens?

[errant abyss]

here comes another victim.

[lyric vale]

welcome to Scopely's chance at disappointment!

so any thoughts on the next mining ticket:
gas or crystal?

[proud wing]

Crystal, because it’s what the schedule says.

[lyric vale]

oh nice

[naive meteor]

It was always Crystal, Gas, then Ore
Scopley sadly Changed that order

[proud wing]

They’re teaching players to read, that’s all

[naive meteor]

Dear O'Dear

[marsh turtle]

spend FT event not scoring properly

Spent Protomatter - and ZERO

[warped ginkgo]

Did you use it to unlock FT slot on a ship? That's the only one it counts for , equipping and unequipping doesn't iirc

[marsh turtle]

I used it to buy emblems of assessment in the refinery... it NEVER states it must be used for an upgrade. It just says SPEND

If it doesn't specify - that's on them, not me.

If you spend, you spend, period... Unless it specifies on a certain item, which it most definitely does not (screenshot taken).

[wind fog]

Yes, unfortunately, no matter how correct is your statement, $copely has their own interpretation.

[plucky ermine]

So the recruit archer event got cancelled for the incursion XSLB ?

[spark barn]

this is stupid. Why give us a schedule if you aren't going to follow it

[plucky ermine]

yeah scopely communication at its best

[wind fog]

They break their own schedule every month

[sullen cape]

Imbeciles

[plucky ermine]

it says subject to change though 😄

but would have been nice to get an earlier heads up

[spark barn]

so's my willigness to put up with this crap

[deep steeple]

Great I need 47 shards to unlock archer which I was going to get today and they put the wrong event up

[hearty monolith]

Seriously who’s the idiot running this month’s events

[inner fulcrum]

What the funk <@&509690795536941056>

[plucky kraken]

<@&509691205798592532>? No archer? No communication

[delicate mulch]

Where is the spend milestone event....

[upper depot]

S88, missing the final recruit Archer spend event

[plucky kraken]

And they put in and XLB which is ops 51-70 so at ops 53 I'll just sit out unless they fix it

[glacial token]

Where is the archer recruit events?

[hearty monolith]

I guess no1 is buying stuff so gotta push that gambling token for ppl to unlock archer

[deep steeple]

The fact it's a recruit event for an old officer makes me think it's a mistake

[lost bear]

Spend sms…..

[deep steeple]

Probably won't be any announcement

[inner fulcrum]

No it’s the same event that ran previous two weekends

[stiff willow]

Where is recruit captain archer event?

[mighty orbit]

*Events are subject to change 😒

[rotund spire]

Not spending a single Mat till we get what’s on the calendar

[peak escarp]

More QUALITY I see. Guess the developers, arc runners, and communications people don't talk with each other.

[agile summit]

The ole Scopely switcheroo

[hearty monolith]

It was archer recruit the last two weekends not XSLB

[sharp cairn]

And more lousy incursions coming. So over the boring station raiding

[urban crown]

will the spened mats count for SMS???? i want it to be count

[dreamy trench]

really?????????????? ###, why you announce 3 ###ing spend events for archer when you delate it then aand bring a ###ing xsbl????

[delicate mulch]

It's ridiculous, no one seems to really enjoy incursions even

[rotund spire]

Subject to change is fine.. if we are informed

[dreamy trench]

i need 9 charts for archer and want do this event and now this ###???

[peak escarp]

You were informed, when the events started. Typical $copely garbage.

[rotund spire]

Sarcasm is what we all need LOL

[shadow swan]

give them 30 minutes... it might still come.

[inner fulcrum]

Dude… read: I’m saying the event today was supposed to be the same one that ran the last two weekends. Thats why it had multiple dates listed… it’s not supposed to be a gambling event for tokens like you suggested

[peak escarp]

Looks like I'm holding off on using any mats this weekend.

[unkempt lava]

I planned for these events and now you change em all @pseudo rune @sly tinsel whats wrong with the content team. What kind of person changes the events without notice and screw all our planning and strategies

[versed stirrup]

so no event?
Recruit Archer Events (Level 20-70 Solo Milestone E Leaderboard)
Feb 10-11, 17-18, 24-25

[dreamy trench]

they give us a XSBL and delete the sms + other officers, thats much better...not

[native rune]

Where's the recruit archer event?

[unkempt lava]

Unless you are giving me a 50 archer shards compensation gift

We deserve an explanation and a correction of the events

[dreamy trench]

Why, just WHY Scopely NEVER can run events just like announced??? its the WORST event management i have EVER seen

[sullen cape]

It's because they exist on grads / interns

[versed osprey]

All events are subject to change lol

[foggy cliff]

They’ll rely on “events subject to change.”. They don’t actually care

[livid quail]

Why isn’t there at least the Archer SMS?

[sullen cape]

Keep recruiting children and letting them play in the sandbox. Except the sandbox is the production environment of STFC

[violet portal]

Really not sure why we all put up with this so much plan to make sure I can unlock on this event....

[peak escarp]

More likely people who failed out.

[sullen cape]

Those are the managers

Failed upwards, Peter principle

I work in IT, this is all depressingly familiar.

[urban crown]

its 2024 ! quality over quantity 😄 they said

[mellow stirrup]

Where is the archer spend event? Was it cancelled?

[versed osprey]

And you dont need archer if you check djz dc lol

[rotund spire]

They’ve been silent on it so far

[quasi harbor]

Not sure why but scopely screwed up royally to run an incursions xlb sprnd over the arc scheduled spend event

[urban crown]

COMP chest now! 30 Shards of all Crews!!

[round marsh]

Ahhhh I know! Let's screw the folks who planned on the event we published to get Archer this weekend! That's going to make em happy, for sure!

[lavish gate]

WFT - where’s archer. Games a joke. Try to play smart so you can get bps over the arc and then just delete an event FFS absolute tools. Thanks for thinking of those who try to play the games yay love screwing up.

[hearty monolith]

And i’m saying in jest that because no1 is buying stuff so they removed this weekend’s archer event to get ppl to buy the gambling token to unlock archer

[manic rivet]

It's not about if people need him. It the completel failure to communicate that causing the player who pay money for this to be messed around

[desert laurel]

Can you quote the important part? it's a large discord. 😃

[icy panther]

And now if they add an Archer event, what will they do for those of us currently in 1st in the XSLB?

[balmy tartan]

Same. Bring in archer spend event or I will stop playing. This is absolutely not cool. It's a rug pull.

[peak escarp]

So much for this being a year of "quality", looks more like the year of "screw the playerbase anytime we can".

[errant iron]

This is nothing new. Scopely is a trash company. They do this crap all the time.

[abstract talon]

This is getting ridiculous Scopely not impressed

[versed stirrup]

Okay so look at the event announcement at the start of the arc and know, right that will not happening 😉

[versed osprey]

Dont want them to patch it in some way lol

Not like its a bug or somth

But still

[copper sierra]

missing archer event

[crystal spoke]

Loved this game in many ways for many years now. The amount of content that has been added into this game for spending purposes only is overwhelming. I can't help but feel that since they are at the end of the line in terms of the TV show canon, they are creating random elements to sustain for years. It's squeezing me (and I assume many players) and it's very discouraging. The game should be fun. It's clearly becoming an unabashed slot machine

[urban ridge]

Events subject to change 🤷‍♂️

[unkempt lava]

This is awful customer care. Worst, ever.

[stone elbow]

@pseudo rune Not only is there no Archer SMS (or SLB) as advertised in the event list... I'm also still competing (as a 50s player) against people 65+ in SLBs.... So the SLB that is running is still impossible for me.

[wild fjord]

Where’s the Archer spend event. I was counting on it. I need 6 shards

[jovial yarrow]

They changed SLB for XSLB ok, but what about the SMS????

[dreamy trench]

https://tenor.com/view/scopely-scopely-content-scopely-not-this-day-a-day-may-come-gif-18702278

[versed osprey]

@desert laurel

[errant iron]

“Subject to change” — when Scopely says that, what they really mean is “it absolutely will change because we don’t know how to plan more than a week in advance” and also “we will make changes without notice because we don’t know what we’re doing”

[low pawn]

compensation chest is coming containing a sandpaper tubal shaped object wrapped in barb wire and a jar of pickle juice to insert internally

[grizzled mulch]

Remember that in the past this has happened and they ran the correct SLB that Monday…

[candid zenith]

Notice of change would have been nice. I have to plan carefully to keep up in this game

[lost bear]

It won’t do any harm to add the correct sms and slb to run along side your silly xslb. Please add it! Also some communication goes a long way….. not just form scopley but from the moderators here to let us know they are asking the questions

[merry plover]

💩

[pine glen]

Things have gotten so much worse since Scopely were sold.

[desert rivet]

I did keep all my mats for this Archer event this weekend..
That is NOT FUNNY 😣

[placid moss]

Personally I think it is purposeful to make you deplete all your resources and then buy packs for when they do an ooops…here is the promised event days later

[covert frigate]

Scopley did not sell enough Archer Packs in the store, so they going to need more time.. 🤑

[sweet mantle]

Archer SMS missing

[balmy tartan]

Yes louis, it's been the subject for the past 35 mins.

[tribal coral]

They will acknowledge the mistake after people have spent their resources for sure. Then be like it sok we will runit tomorrow for you

[sweet mantle]

Excellent

Hopefully gets added soon

[rotund spire]

Which is why im sitting on what ive got

[wise nymph]

https://tenor.com/view/andysamberg-snl-inspirational-dream-gif-4642309

[abstract gate]

I'm held up on other events waiting

[dreamy trench]

There are reasons i reduce my spends on this game massive last 6 month and this is one of the main. just do what you announce or don't announce it!!!

[covert frigate]

https://tenor.com/view/game-over-glitch-gif-25836778

[quasi harbor]

As usual no communication from scopely. Sigh.

[proven laurel]

theyre all on that cruise this weekend

[spark barn]

I want a refund on the packs I bought last night for an event you pulled today.

[abstract gate]

Never buy packs before refresh...lol

[peak escarp]

I'm going one further at this point, never buy packs.

[abstract gate]

Have too... it's expected of us if we hope to get more bugs with each update

[burnt sky]

If they bring an Archer mat spend event, they better grandfather in the mats we spent on the XSLB. Scoply flat out lies CONSTANTLY to its players

[wind fog]

You had me at “never buy packs”

[forest reef]

It is not just the SMS. Instead of Archer it is Trip + 7 of 9 in XSLB.

[spark barn]

Been 50 minutes. No one at Scopely cares that people are upset.

[forest reef]

I was out of town for the first two SMS/SLB events. I am not spending resources for a different character.

[native rune]

Not even a "we're working on it" announcement." Radio silence as usual.... Do better Scopely.

[worldly mica]

Yeah, why did I spend for an event that isn't going to happen. Dopey clowns!

[warm dagger]

welp I'm logging off and skipping everything today if I'm not getting an Archer SMS/SLB

[desert laurel]

Have asked about the event schedule change. Will try to update if I get an answer.

[low pawn]

@devout cairn sort the archer event please

[gilded shadow]

Tag Eco if you're upset:)

[quasi harbor]

Thank you appreciate the effort. Im a moderator on a server discord its a thankless job.

[glacial token]

That’s exactly why I stoped spending a while ago ….ever g6 came out ..and I am ops 62..

[worldly mica]

Oh someone finally responded. No thanks til it's resolved.

[glacial token]

U can trust scopay anymore….they always have been greedy ..but what is too much is too much …

[urban dock]

Next month... Spent = trust on Scopely = 0

[shrewd knot]

If you never say anything you're never wrong

[urban dock]

If they want to change 3rd recruit event, good, announce It before 2nd starts giving players the chance to adapt to the change

No communication, no intention to improve....

[nocturne karma]

But now they can lure people with the gamble packs 🤮

[urban dock]

They play with players to push them to spend. . till the toy breaks

[glacial token]

It”s intentionally..probably archer packs to buy will come out

[visual verge]

@pseudo rune The recent communication quality really went down, to be fair also the quantity, so you are probably still ok 😉🤣

[spark barn]

here's an interesting idea... perhaps Scopely should have more people online at event resets daily just in case there is a problem... I don't know, seems like a logical thing to do so that when people are upset there might be people available to deal with it.

[royal sorrel]

Official announcements channel is glaringly empty of new posts.

[marsh kiln]

logic is not a part of their dictionary

[tribal bluff]

That would require them to care in the first place

[fleet meteor]

The "quality" this game exudes is about the same as the output of an '82 Yugo

[errant surge]

the Xindi Token event is a P2P only event too?

[pine glen]

No, it's £€$

[errant surge]

Misread what you typed 🙈

[errant surge]

[molten sigil]

No it’s a garbage pay to play “event” equivalent to a slot machine

[wild flame]

worse odds than a slot machine though

[sweet mantle]

Any update on the missing archer SMS/SLB?

Why has it not been added yet? It’s clearly on the event schedule… 😂

[dreamy trench]

its Saturday evening, i don't think there will be a answer before Monday noon^^

Is there a pack for that?

[hexed lark]

If you check the events schedule in game, it clearly says for Archer spend event that events are subject to change. It appears Scopely have activated that caveat 😊🤣

[sweet mantle]

Scopely have activated the “alienate your player base” protocol 😂

Goal: to be a game company that hates its player base.
Goal completed -1000 achievement pts

[calm belfry]

Oh nice. Of course there's no Heroic Material Advantage this weekend

[coral yarrow]

Oh i got censored. Well let me word this better. I hope everyone sees what kind of a joke company you are now and all the literal poo pile of events you churn from out of your holes. Maybe the playerbase will finally realize you arent worth anything to spend on

[trail vigil]

Recruit Archer is still on their events announcement, wtf

[jovial dagger]

There will always be that type of player, they insert devs into servers that boosts the whales spending

[snow oak]

Right next to "events can change" as if that was planned beforehand 😅

[jovial dagger]

We had it on our server but he over stepped his power then got his account deleted

[polar rivet]

Anyone for a game of Othello?

[solemn pewter]

They cancel archer recruit event?

[white perch]

you would think with mod and mutlipule devs on we at least get a hey we are looking at it or the get bent message it is what is

[proud wing]

We don’t spend enough to be told

[white perch]

quick someone buy the dev announcment pack so we can know whats going on!

[sleek horizon]

😂

[nocturne cave]

on scopely's end there is no problem. this is intended. they even added a line of text that events are subject to change. they didnt add those archer lootboxes in for show and then remove a easy way to get him 😉

[errant surge]

Funny thing is the Devs are to cowardly to say anything

[nocturne cave]

devs dont have a say what higher management wants. not enough money comes in they create an extra lootbox event. targets need to be made.

[wild flame]

Would be nice to at least get a "We know, we have asked Scopely and are waiting for a reply"

[random bough]

@pseudo rune can you tell the overlords that canceling the Archer spend event for an XSLB that nobody wants to spend on is ridiculous

[errant surge]

heres the answer 'we dont give a care - too busy on a cruise'

[merry plover]

Feck it

Not worth the time and effort, I wait for the answer, let’s see if they can fix it this time 😑

[errant surge]

nope

[sharp cairn]

Funny DJz also said there would be tons of Shran shards this month too. Unless you bought tickets that wasn’t true

[marsh kiln]

There was a 3 day event for Shran shards, have you been sleeping under a rock?

[errant surge]

who cares about shran anyways hes crap

[marsh kiln]

that wasn't the question

[sharp cairn]

Nice way to treat people. There were less than 10 shards in that event

[marsh kiln]

yet shards

[errant surge]

yeah I know - I have noticed a change in UDJ too

[covert spruce]

Their goal is to build a product and rinse the customer base as quickly as possible and continue to do so for as long as possible before people finally cotton on and stop spending

[nocturne cave]

still not enough for a unlock unless u bought the tickets i guess ? ;p

[nocturne cave]

content creators just parrot what scopely feeds em. they cannot be trusted. they will do anything for views.

[errant surge]

I wonder what rubbish we will get in the compensation chest this time lol

[covert spruce]

Mbenga shards

[errant surge]

🤣

cooooooeeeeeee Devs - we can se your online lol

@pure acorn @devout cairn @sinful sage

UDJ on DND lol

[spark barn]

At this point I don’t care. My alliance already burned a building exo so the big guys could chase the xlsb. I’m left having bought packs planning to move on an sms that won’t happen now even if Scopely decides to make things right. Want my refund scopely.

[alpine yoke]

Yep they'll ignore it til we give up. As is they dropped it during a weekend then their entire goddamn company took off so there won't be anyone to answer until Monday

[sleek horizon]

Seems my comment about Archer event was blocked

[nocturne cave]

why buy packs beforehand ?

[onyx coral]

Ffs what happened to the Archer event?

[royal idol]

FREE GAI…I MEAN ARCHER

[cinder lintel]

Where is the archer recruit event? I thought it was today?

[knotty seal]

So glad i went all in first event,saving for last event doesnt always work lol

Scopley said nope!!

[mental yoke]

They want you to buy your 0.5% chance to get him.

[alpine yoke]

Needed 14 more shards and this event has been on the calendar since day one. If "events are subject to change" that change needs to be communicated beforehand, not just not dropping the events

[knotty seal]

Save the rss for the next one

Archer is awesome btw

[hushed agate]

Bs like this really makes me want to stop playing. After 5 years, you figure they would be able to get things right more often but this game is still as messed up as day one. The xindi has been a huge time sink and archer is suppose to help and they cancel an event most of us needed to unlock him.

[nocturne cave]

archer recruitment replaced with loot box mechanic.

[covert frigate]

They are doing this to drive up sales of the Archer pack...

[violet portal]

They know we all plan for this last one, so we need it, so they will let us spend everything we saved then run it Monday like they are doing us some big favour so we buy more, is a bad joke and is what they did before

[spark barn]

The event was not canceled… cancellation requires communication. The third archer event was skipped in order to give us an event we don’t like and a way to pay for the rewards. Understand move, but tired of zero communication

[pseudo ibex]

Does anyone else feel like a fish staring at a hook or am I the only one?

[hushed agate]

Well, I'm not spending on anything to do with archer after this and I know a lot of other aren't either. I refuse to reward them for this behavior.

[knotty seal]

Quit the game

[unkempt lava]

So whats the official explanation for this eff the players move from scopely, @pseudo rune @modest frost

Are they gonna tell us why they changed their own rules?

And please don't say that you are listening to your players or offering quality over quantity 💩

[hushed agate]

Whats the point of having @pseudo rune and @modest frost when we never get the information we need from them? The idea is nice, but acopley has to use them to make it worthwile

[nocturne cave]

just eco. bek has been reassigned else where. and eco's communicating skill and understanding of the game are about the same quality as the game itself and thats putting it mildly.

[alpine yoke]

Don't forget the third community manager they added that somehow manages to do even less than the other 2

[nocturne cave]

he still around ?

[dreamy patio]

There's a third?

[green trail]

I'm not mad they cancelled the f2p event in favor of their p2w event. I just wish they would tell us about it, I know plenty of big spenders that were counting on the SLB and SMS today to finish unlocking Archer. Proper communication would reduce the community backlash by a large amount.

[covert harness]

Lol, communication

[nocturne cave]

yeah domo or something.. search history shows he's missing somehow

[covert harness]

Some people here will probably tell you to search Discord and someone mentioned it somewhere on here

[alpine yoke]

They prefer to let our anger burn unmonitored over the weekend and then refuse to acknowledge the issue when they come back to work on Monday.

[covert harness]

Last time I said something about the lack of communication on here, i got “well, if you’d just scroll up 10,000 posts or so, you’d see that Eco said something about it just yesterday!”

[summer jackal]

You can also search discord for Eco

[covert harness]

Shouldn’t have to

Was my whole point

[summer jackal]

true lol

[random bough]

Epic failure of events, also, why is autogrinding not scoring for events?

[dreamy patio]

Pretty much always been that way

except in some cases

[glad orbit]

THANK GOD I saved and scrimped for the Archer Spend Event....OH WAIT, SCROTELY SCREWS US AGAIN!

[ornate geyser]

These particular events never score with auto farming. You have to initiate the attack.

[smoky iris]

And this is why I stopped buying battle passes.

[glad orbit]

Yeah, I waited until now to buy the Battlepass, but since these 🍑🕳️s decided to switch-n-bait with no warning, even on their own discord that I can see, they lose my money. Why pay to get CLOSER to getting an officer I would have actually gotten, then wait for them to MAYBE have a path that takes months later...

[hushed oyster]

Yeah forget this stupid gacha $ pack nonsense vs a actual sms and slb

[smoky iris]

Pretty much this. I was pacing myself for three slbs to get archer, if I came a little short I'd buy the battle pass to complete him (like I did for trip last month). But the bp won't get me there now so I'll not spend

[naive meteor]

They simply don't care

[pine cedar]

I get the frustration about the missing Archer events. I don’t get the rage. Archer really only useful on the NX01, and if you have NX01 you probably paid for it so just pay for Archer. If you’re F2P or only a light spender, you don’t have NX01 yet and won’t for several months, by which time they’ll have run other events and likely event store options to complete your Archer unlock.

[dreamy patio]

Archer is not only useful on the nx01, i run him tucker and t'pol on my sanctus

[glad orbit]

So, you haven't been lied to and betrayed too often in your life, have you?

[dreamy patio]

500% loot boost hitting surveys

is a lot

[naive meteor]

I unlocked Archer,
I scored 2nd on the first one,
And 1st on the last one

[pine cedar]

Congratulations BarnOwl

[naive meteor]

Thanks 👍

[smoky iris]

It's because this is not a one off, stfc is at the end of the day a strategy and resource allocation game. That's what I enjoy. But when they screw up the slbs like this, and often it subtracts for the fun.

[glad orbit]

"There ain't nuthin' wrong with lying to our customers and taking content away while replacing it with crayap they already have so we can squeeze more .oney from them."

[marsh kiln]

must be hard to not get an answer 2:30 later even 😄

[sweet mantle]

Archer SMS/SLB still missing - lets get it up and running 💪

[glad orbit]

Sorry, man. They decided we don't get that event

They decided we can race for Doc and 7 of 9 instead

[sweet mantle]

They will have to re decide 😂

[glad orbit]

Oh, sorry, Tucker and 7

[sweet mantle]

You can’t put it on the schedule and not run it… not without risking losing too many players

The simple solution for the company is to run it, they will see sense if they have any sense about them 😂

[glad orbit]

They can, they have, and they've done it before, no matter how pizzed off it makes us

[sweet mantle]

Not that I can remember

[glad orbit]

I'm fuming right now having saved up for this one.

Bait n switch company

[sweet mantle]

I’ve not seen them schedule an officer recruit SMS/SLB and not run it before

[pine cedar]

I do expect they will run it. I agree that too many players budgeted and planned for this weekends Archer SMS

[inner cave]

The get out of jail card is “subject to change”

[glad orbit]

Promise one thing, slaps you with something you don't need instead

[sweet mantle]

That won’t get them out of jail with the players though

[sweet mantle]

Agreed

[glad orbit]

Yeah, that's as likely as my Supervisor gaining a conscience

[sweet mantle]

In my experience, when scopely get this level of “feedback”, they see sense and sort it

[glad orbit]

Yeah, we'll get a consolation prize of 1 officer shard or something useless like that

[inner cave]

Thankfully I pushed last weekend and got top 10 so got him. Not so useful atm on reptilian at least. Need the crit floor dmg favour maxed (no prime) min to be useful on reptilian

[sweet mantle]

It might be Monday before they take a look, but I’d be very surprised if they don’t run it

[fallen pivot]

archer event subject to change, how did the event change when it did not run?

[sweet mantle]

Let’s have some faith - they will run it 😂👀

[coral swan]

They wont

[warped ginkgo]

If they do my points better be there from the current onen🤨

[inner cave]

The event list is “subject to change “ as well as the events

[smoky iris]

Now if they run it they will make folks who've already spent on trip/seven upset

It would have been nice if they had announced it last week. I could have pushed for top10 and then gotten archer with the battle pass. Since I'm too far out now I won't buy the bo

[lucid smelt]

@desert laurel Looks like you updated events in the event calendar tab for bp event and the calendar still shows archer SMS/SLB. What’s with this bogus XSLB?

[remote vortex]

Subject to change usually implies they could add stuff...them taking the event away in a scheduled calendar with zero communication is the issue.

[unkempt lava]

It clearly says so in news channel!!

[inner cave]

That is their little caveat

[livid quail]

Sure, but usually if there’s a change, even in life, there’s an effort made to inform affected persons about the change

[unborn hare]

I’ll take it. I’m 1 shard short of archer. 😂

[inner cave]

I was going to pace it but thankfully didn’t

[patent dust]

"Subject to change" ...for any reason, without notice 😩😡

[abstract talon]

Not the point if it's subject to change as so many of us looking for it to get Archer.

[unkempt lava]

I mean, people plan for events, how much do I spend this weekend, how much next weekend, etc

There's math involved and strategy

[desert laurel]

The listed schedule in that channel only changes when I'm made aware of changes. The original post for that event hasn't been edited, and I've not heard from Scopely about a change. It's the same as in-game.

[unkempt lava]

Change it without notice SUX

[smoky iris]

I'm debating whether or not to spend for trip/7 or to hold for another week. 7s not bad but tip 10 on a xslb may be out of my reach

[glad orbit]

Subject to change with no announcement or warning so all of your plans go up in smoke like the chances of spending money on this back-stabbing game again

[unkempt lava]

Yes, it sux

[livid quail]

Please show us the “with no announcement”

[hushed oyster]

And most of the time you can’t get your money back either

[livid quail]

Does not state “without notice.” And if it’s not obvious when grading rubrics come out for arcs, communication usually graded poorly.

It’s less about the fact that the event changed, and often that changes are not communicated until channels such as this are filled with screen shots and questions about “where is ‘x’ event?”

[pine cedar]

Let’s stop bashing Candle - we don’t have an official response yet

[glad orbit]

Exactly. If we had some kind of warning (I was SAYING there was no warning if you read my post you quoted) we could have planned accordingly

[coral swan]

Can I order a NicerDicer here?

[glad orbit]

Well, with 3,000 posts about how pizzed off we are, they might have some incentive to fix their mistakes. If we remain silent, they will say "Oh, they don't care that much, just leave it."

[pine cedar]

Speculation only - I agree that they can’t/wont/shouldn’t run the event as planned this weekend since the XSLB has started - mayhem would ensue. Expect them to give it a think and then run the Archer events next weekend

[glad orbit]

I suspect, however, that the people who make the decisions get the weekend off, so we won't see a thing until then

[glad orbit]

Having spent enough RSS and directives to put me into 6th before noticing, most likely you're right.

[pine cedar]

Also - submit a ticket in game. The more their support team hears….

[nocturne cave]

they are off it seems.. and monday they surely wont read back ;p

[alpine yoke]

they know they're safe doing it on a weekend. the vitriol will have died some by Monday, and it'll be easier for them to just not respond

[ashen wharf]

and those who are mad will just spend next month

[abstract gate]

I caught a 1 hour ban earlier here by Carl the bot...lol. apparently he didn't like my choice words for the missing event...lol. Im back!

Oh it was my name...lol

[languid gulch]

What a cluster for a month!

Events deleted after they were started.
Comp gifts claimed to be being rewarded for that act that were not rewarded.
Gambling pay events added to trick minors.
Removing announced events without any communication prior on changes.

Very poorly done, for wanting to improve quality over quality this year. 0 out of 5 stars

[shrewd knot]

I thought the EU banned the gambling packs like the current event?

[languid gulch]

In Canada too, deemed predatory to minors. There's a class action being formed in multiple provicnes now (I'm aware of and watching but not participating in)

[celest relic]

You forgot that some android users were locked out of the game for the first third of the arc, and no word on comp or how they can make up missed bp points when the arc ends Monday

[blazing furnace]

Well clearly you should have bought a computer to play, jeesh

[hushed agate]

Facts, best way to play a mobile game lol

[blazing furnace]

Indeed, trust the logic

[hushed agate]

I find it hard to trust anything from scopley

[blazing furnace]

Your just not looking hard enough 🫣

Though trusting the event calendar graphic has made me sad today 😞

[celest relic]

Luckily I wasn’t impacted. But I did have to babysit 3 alliancemates for a few days

When all your bookmarks are your own bases, lol

[unkempt lava]

Hey @pseudo rune @modest frost we are still waiting for an announcement about what happened to the archer recruit event scopely unilaterally removed from schedule And about what are we gonna do to fix this 💩mess.

[blazing furnace]

They don't give a 💩.
Like it was mentioned above, they knew they were upgrading to unity 2021 and didn't give anyone heads up that there mobile device might not work

[celest relic]

It’s a weekend. I doubt anything comes up til Monday. So what we have is likely what we have

They’ll probably push xindi coins to unlock archer

[fresh sundial]

yeah they don't get in a hurry about anything except cashing in on our hard earned money we spend in this game

[unkempt lava]

Money makes games possible = money kills games situation. They just couldn't find the balance between those.

[blazing furnace]

I'm just not going to spend any material, plus the slb bracket in the 50s is terrible, 60s score six times for points for uncs, sms is the only thing worth doing.

[agile summit]

Is so painful to plan out mat spending for an arc, only for them to rip that away

[narrow wagon]

Pooling 60s with 50s has been awful. I don’t even try most SLBs anymore because of it. I’m a 57 trying to compete with 64/65s? GTFO.

[dreamy patio]

They're supposed to be fixing that, but haven't said anything beyond the one announcement

[narrow wagon]

It’s been an issue since they raised the level cap. They probably just haven’t had time to fix it because that was… so…. recent….

[dreamy patio]

#⭐-official-announcements message meant this announcement

[ornate geyser]

I’m a 52 competing with 57s and I can’t even refine the stuff 57s score with.

Until 57s are out of my bracket, I want the 60s to stay.

[unkempt lava]

They screwed up stfc. They screwed up stumble guys. Please don't buy brawl stars so you screw that one too.

[narrow wagon]

I don’t see how 60+ staying helps you. But I’m happy with them scaling those brackets down all around.

[storm gust]

What happened to the recruit archer event

[alpine yoke]

Someone in marketing went "hey, wouldn't it be better if we sold them a 0.5% chance of getting Archer instead?" and they all cheered and lifted him up on their shoulders

[ornate geyser]

It slows down the 55+ crowd, otherwise the gap increases fast.

[ornate geyser]

Hey man…the content creators have applauded these kinds of moves before…because (by their logic) it gives more players a full unlock.

[narrow wagon]

I mean sure. But it slows you down too lol.

[azure granite]

Thought I had developed dyslexia overnight. Had other read it too it does say recruit archer….

[slim tide]

Has there been any official word about the missing archer recruit event? Feel like I should chargeback my BP purchase, since i did it specifically planning on unlocking Archer with the 14 shards from it, plus the event this weekend....

[dreamy patio]

no word

and don't expect one until at least monday

[unkempt lava]

THAT is pretty much the best answer to that question ive read today

[alpine yoke]

where eco will say he's "looking into it" until it becomes a moot point and people get tired of asking

[serene forum]

why do you think he says that? to make people forget or get tired of asking

[random bough]

Sorry but the excuse of "Incursion prep" falls on deaf ears as last month they had no issues running Arc spend event along with incursion prep..

[errant iron]

And this is why Scopely is scum

[wispy sun]

For the love of Spock, give us 7 day warning of Incursions

[coral yarrow]

This is pathetic. The change in the sms event for archer which by the way is needed because the xindi loop was made so poorly. Typical scopay and i hope the playerbase just recognizes that these poo pile of events and just stop investing in them

[lunar relic]

Hmm, advanced development SLB only accepts UC ore for upgrades what a drag. All the docks and turrets have been doing nothing… that and the missing archer event. Bunch of horse hockey

[whole prairie]

yep the event roulette that the ARC runner plays every weekend said ... let's skip the event most player anticipate for that weekend to replace it with stupid incursion prep event ... not that $copely could not run both .. but THAN they could not sell as much pixel as they can if they skip that

[urban scaffold]

That's gonna start biting them in the ass...

[whole prairie]

oh and btw. a simple Sorry chest with elite tokens will not work this time as ppl planned for getting Archer this weekend (at least the BP owners) ... 3x 30 (all but last milestone) + BP was a full unlock

Exactly!

It seems they've done this the last BP as well with Trip and T'Pol if I remember right, just about fully unlocked and bam, sorry, try again next time

[solemn dock]

We had the same💩events every week and when they put something new, that was replaced soon , and this time only for an officer

I don’t need archer events to unlock him, I need comp chest with 120 shards in it, just to be motivated to keep playing this app

[halcyon flare]

but there are many other players who need the slb/sms to unlock Archer. these are all those who trusted in the truth of the event plan.

[merry plover]

100/115 archer, planed to unlock him last night too

Like other 1M players maybe

[halcyon flare]

welcome to the very large team that was disappointed by scopley

[noble oar]

Eh I don't trust the event plan, I know it's subject to change, I was naive enough to think such a change would be announced though

I’m glad i got him unlocked last weekend

i spent nothing in this xslb not even a single mat 😁

[proud wing]

That’s what “run time and schedule may change” means though, it’s not exactly hidden

[sleek horizon]

It’s the lack of communication that got people’s backs up. They just sit there counting £$ and any other currency they can

[whole prairie]

They talk about the premium path of the mini BP 🤣

[merry plover]

Given a "chance ' to get it

[proud bluff]

Guarantee they won't offer as many as were available in the SMS

[merry plover]

"based" one

[whole prairie]

$copelies promise of this year's focus

[halcyon flare]

next time on x Factor - scopley sticks to the promises and the plan

[whole prairie]

Oh they do stick to their promise and plan ... They just don't communicate THEIR promise and plan

Maybe it's like the promise is to earn more money and the plan is to get the players pay Hugh amounts for some pixels which can of course be subject to change (the pixels not the money or that the players pay for it)

[leaden gale]

Why are bugs more common Friday evening thru Monday morning 🤦‍♂️

[wraith dome]

That’s why you shouldn’t have bought it

[merry arch]

Where can I find information on earning the currencies needed for these items in the event store? I'm ops22 and don't see anything on my 'events' at all that would apply?

And is this the 'end of arc' event store that I've heard mention in other places?

[long slate]

So, the Epuc officer event (archer) was only held twice this arc? Why?

[dreamy patio]

you buy the coins, trade the coins in the recruit section, and then trade the medals in the event store. not worth it.

[long slate]

Don’t we normally see events for epic officers 3 times an arc?

[merry arch]

Oh... so it is purely a gacha gamba type 'event'?

[long slate]

You might want to evaluate things if you’re considering that pack.

I wouldn’t trust Scopley’s math with percentages..

Oh, I got it

Here’s what Scopley did. They replaced the material event for Archer with this Xindi Chase Recruit “Event” LOL.

You have a .5 percent chance of getting archer if you spend the $$$

Scopley logic.

They couldn’t have both

LOL

Another fail

[summer bronze]

No any info about sms archer recruit?

[long slate]

@summer bronze see my comment above. Scopley replaced the Archer SMS with the Xindi Chase Recruit pack

[solar nacelle]

Btw the gamble would need you to spend $750 for a 63% chance of 1 T5. Want better odds, spend twice that for an 86% odds of 1 T5. But remember odds are NOT the same as probability. Meaning you can drop $5 grand on those and still never get a single T5 token

[long slate]

Lol

The gamble isn’t worth it. In my opinion anyone that buys that pack is a fool.

[pine glen]

The event store is usually the 3rd instance of the arc, so hopefully next months nx-01 arc.

[long slate]

While it’s the last way to get Archer if you don’t have, I wouldn’t do it.

Wait until the event store -> If Scopley has it LOL

Luckily I unlocked him, but this pretty low for Scopley

[timid acorn]

Someone posted above that they are looking to slot him into the events next week.

[long slate]

It doesn’t matter. This was low, and not communicated effectively.

That said, it’s Scopley, so no surprise there.

I assume this there will be an event store

Was the Incursions date announced yet?

I assume next Friday.

[dreamy patio]

no

[long slate]

I understand that they reserve the right to change the schedule, still low non the less.

Clearly a cash grab.

Gambling for virtual SFTC shards lol

[royal holly]

There is a vague note I got from support they will have more archer events (but they did not specify these were not already planned.....just there will be more)

[cunning stag]

Incursions running this upcoming weekend?

[naive meteor]

We have the same server again for the next incursion
Interestingly We Previously merged with the other server we had incursion

[cunning stag]

I think we're fighting the same server as last time as well.

[naive meteor]

If you merge with them later, that'll be interesting..

[noble dove]

they are all on cruise, Scopley overlords don't care about little ol' us, we might have the same opponent or they just didn't bother changing and will do that later. wouldn't be the first time the b.....nope, don't have anything nice to say........change something all of a sudden

[solar nacelle]

I kind of wonder if this won't be 4 part arc. We only have Archer, T'pol, and Trip from the Enterprise crew. Throwing in Shran feels like an odd inclusion which makes me think this will be a 4 part arc as we still have Hoshi, Mayweather, Phlox, and Reed to get to at least round out the primary cast. They obviously don't have to do that, but every other show on it's first arc (disregarding TNG's follow up in terms of Ent-E and PIC) have given us the entire main cast of the show

[spice plover]

Scopely FIX the ff lag on server 152

[noble dove]

would Kes count as main cast in voyager arc?

[dreamy patio]

not anymore

She went loco

[sudden knot]

Event not scoring

[solar nacelle]

Since they did Yar, then it feels like Kes should have been, but yeah it's possible Paramount didn't want her included intenitonally because of her personal life kind of going a bit weird later

[solar nacelle]

Have to use an explorer, the event is named after the ship doing the hunting now instead of what you're hunting

[sudden knot]

It says " score by destroying hostile explorers to score" that's why I put a screenshot

[naive meteor]

Go go gadget.. LoL

[noble dove]

i didn't even read that, i see it now but i already used an explorer to shoot stuff. just another scopley thing

[nocturne cave]

just like any other officer events after the launch arcs ;;p

[noble dove]

i would argue nurse Chapel is main cast in SNW too and was waiting for her but....

[solar nacelle]

Don't disagree there on Chapel, I was wondering when she'd get added, so was disappointed. And with way Scopely has been running lately, it's possible they may not include everyone left. But hoping they don't go that route. But we shall see

[pine glen]

Explorer event description is wrong, it's USE explorer, not hunt explorers. Ffs scopely!

[solar nacelle]

These events used to be kill XXX with YYY. Then changed it to kill with YYY and not require killing X

[noble dove]

they announced an event a week before it starts. i wonder if they will run it too

[spice brook]

It’s also the weekend. So no one is paying attention and nothing will get fixed.

[placid scroll]

And also there should be incursions I guess, too.

But the early accommodation make sense, because not everyone can get the whole amount of species 8472 loot for the event (it’s the same amount as you need for the 3 stack refinery at least for me.

But the upgrade event is garbage. If your voyager is level locked and fully upgraded for your level you can’t participate

[proud wing]

Oh well.

I have 1 component and 2 or 3 researches i can do, then i’m locked again

Not sure i can, or want to, get to 51 in a week

[runic token]

Can you get a second Voyager to upgrade? Just remember that someone without a Voyager at all is in the exact same boat as you are...

[lavish halo]

tried hitting explorers. tried using an explorer. not getting points in explorer hunter. just putting this here in case anyone else not getting points.

[placid scroll]

Perhaps event delay/lag. It wouldn’t be the first time.

[pine glen]

I'm scoring USING an explorer.

[placid scroll]

Only with real money, that doesn’t worth for that

[stable crow]

there's a limit of 2 purchases on the full unlock.

[placid scroll]

I get the voyager f2p or half with bp don’t remember exactly, but 100 eur is to expensive for that and I don’t need a 2nd voyager for anything else

[austere stirrup]

AGAIN no overflow on wave defense 👎

[dreamy patio]

never has been

[austere stirrup]

Yeah then why shove the event in my face. If it's finished

[pine glen]

The voy upgrade event is only an slb for a few artifact shards, hardly worth stressing over.

[dreamy patio]

could use those shards, will get me tier 7 on the generator

[abstract talon]

Why put up an event that starts in 7 days when events are subject to change and the players are screwed over?

[unborn wraith]

Don’t worry if you have maxed your voyager. I am sure if you ask Scopley nicely they will sell you another one 🤮

[stable iris]

the rewards may change too

[edgy viper]

Archer shards should be in events this week! Rev read message from customer support stating such live on stream today.

[nocturne cave]

yes they should, however this week that event has been cancelled and the other one that has archer shards is a loot box scam.

[edgy viper]

This upcoming week Monday tomorrow Archer shards should be in events according to the message

[abstract talon]

Scampay should be called not scopely

[nocturne cave]

thats gonna sit well if its another spend evend .. after people already blew it on the xslb because scopely cant put out a notice to its playersbase.

[ornate geyser]

Skip it. If I’m not earning, I’m not waving. Easy peasie…

[pine glen]

I ignored the xslb and spent nothing.

[unborn hare]

If this isn’t a scopley archer sms/slb BS

[pine glen]

I'll get the last shard I need from ticket event tomorrow. 😇

[unborn hare]

Tomorrow? No event tomorrow

[pine glen]

Tomorrows ticket event will give me 100pts for the meta event that has archer shards.

[unborn hare]

I finished the ticket events today.

[pine glen]

"Service Comendation: Excellence in Duty" has 3 shards in it. I will hit 500pts and get the last shard I need tomorrow.

[unborn hare]

I finished those today. Still 1 shard short

[neat echo]

You mean if we get tomorrow another ticket?that's my plan too but scopeley will delete the free ticket 🤣

[pine glen]

I can claim 1 more in 16hr 😇

[glossy fog]

anyone know what the 8472 refinery cooldown time is

[warped ginkgo]

3d I believe

[glossy fog]

thank you

[knotty niche]

I got all these points by killing interceptors w exployer.. but that's not what the event says

[naive meteor]

Hit swarm

[knotty niche]

Yes. But the event says kill exployers...

[naive meteor]

Writing is wrong

[knotty niche]

Thank you. This is the new Scopley, quality over quantity.... 🤔.. maybe someone is spending too much time in 10 forward on the Cruise.

[naive meteor]

Definitely happy hunting 😂🖖🏼

[hazy saffron]

Rev must have read that before trying to sell $20 packs as being "of value" loooooooool

[ornate geyser]

This event has been like this for a while…basically, any kill where the explorer (yours or theirs) is doing the attacking, counts. Just assume the description will never update…

[ornate geyser]

Rev is a disaster.

[onyx coral]

I never noticed that they forgot to change the wording. What a bunch of clowns

[hazy saffron]

His discord and stream chats are filled with his buddies driving conversation is certain directions. I would bet $500 that there are scopely employees amongst them

[ornate geyser]

Oh he’s always been a promoter. His job is literally to get players buying packs.

[neat echo]

Those "YouTube" Stars working for scopeley 100%

[forest reef]

SMS shards only helps people with shards from the two prior SLBs. Anyone waiting to dump during the third one is probably screwed.

[lethal talon]

Tiberius definitely is not a scopely employee. Some of the others, likely getting some kind of gratuity.

[celest relic]

Viva la Tibs

[high bolt]

Not always true. I unlocked Trip last month just from the random events/battlepass and the final SMS. Didn't spend any mats for the first two.

[wary oxide]

One announcement from Scopely would go a long way for addressing player concerns. But often we go without any communication. Why be a sadist?

[hazy saffron]

Tiberius actually put a timer on scopely, 90 days no spending, if no improvement he'll probably quit.

[umbral olive]

I'll join that timer

[dull wyvern]

How much for 500 battle pass points? For some reason I am 500 points short of the last tier of the bp overflow from this event

[solid badger]

OK I am not getting a second Voyager nor am I jumping to ops 51 for an event. Guess I will be out those rewards. Moving on

[ornate geyser]

How is that even possible…? 6000 short I get, but 500…?

[acoustic bear]

19.99 points pack if you need those rods lol

500 has screenshot ticket coming to mind lol

[fiery compass]

500 makes sense, i think there was only 7.5k points needed to overflow today

Cand1e's event tracker agrees with me; sounds like the 8k last milestone of a bp event was missed somewhere

[acoustic bear]

Yikes that would mean bye the points or lose the rods

[warm vessel]

There, fixed it for you 😡

[dull wyvern]

I must have not completed an event in full but not realized it

[hushed oyster]

@dull wyvern But that’s not possible because last step each day gives like 4500 or 6000. Not 500. And to be that close you couldn’t have missed multiple milestones

[austere stirrup]

No it means there were more points available then needed. See colleterals answer above

I got the rods before I finished my last event

[heady mica]

When is the incursions game?

[desert laurel]

Max earnable bp pts for the month is 322.5k. They have 314.5k, so the shortage is 8k. There are 8k final milestones in domination events. I would check yesterday's event while they can see it.

[dull wyvern]

Thanx @austere stirrup and @hushed oyster I must have missed part of an event and not scored the full amount of required bp. Not sure how. There will be future events. I was hoping this was a bug but clearly not as others have completed the overflow event

[sacred gale]

Just upgraded the OPS to 58. Why do I got some events where I am supposed to build Shipyard 70 ships?

[toxic folio]

Incentive.

[pale rain]

Completely doable in 19 days

[grizzled mulch]

Because Scopely knows you have a wallet

[sudden otter]

Possible stupid question. I was traveling last week so wasn’t able to play every day. What is the deal with all of the medal folders in the event store?

[crisp current]

Pay to play

[lethal talon]

It’s a ‘spend real money and maybe get something good’ event.

[gentle zephyr]

Still no incursion schedule? Is it broken again?

[spark barn]

Why bother with a schedule if it is subject to last minute changes that won't be communicated.

[desert laurel]

Perfect information isn't necessary to guide plans. Most of the schedule ran as expected. Two events notably did not.

[umbral olive]

That's not exactly confidence inspiring from a company with a history of major roll out bungling, and screwing players constantly.

[jolly sun]

Someone somewhere thought, I know let’s run incursions end of Arc and swap events

No excuse for not telling us after

[keen mist]

You guys are too invested in all this 😂

[quasi token]

https://tenor.com/view/moonflip-shillteam-shillteamassemble-mflip-assemble-gif-24959351

[barren bramble]

These voyage events start in 6 days, but how long do they last?

[rotund spire]

This is a game that requires extreme use of saving specific items in order to compete..Perfect information IS NECESSARY to guide plans

[desert laurel]

I think it would be a mistake to ignore the schedule, but if that's what you want to do. 🤷

[barren bramble]

That's probably my biggest complaint about this game, I think it takes a lot of the satisfaction out of the game when you have to play on scopely schedule instead of your own pace

[rotund spire]

Similarly Thats my complaint in why changing events without communication is wrong

[celest relic]

This one is set for a month. I don’t know if I believe next arc will be a voyager one since we have another enterprise synergy/mining officer coming. I’d take them with a grain of salt (maybe scopes left their placeholder there and it all gets swapped next week)

[errant surge]

But why have a schedule if you are just going to change it when you know alot of people have to save money and resources for the events?

[rotund spire]

Events subject to change is for when something is wrong or when it is properly communicated…. Not just for the whim of the company

Which is how it is used

[errant surge]

I have a certain amount I spend each month so have to plan according to the calendar

[rotund spire]

Ditto as does most of the community

[desert laurel]

I use the schedule, I find it useful. Occasionally some things are changed, but I don't find it useless because a few things are wrong a month like some are suggesting.

[rotund spire]

If it’s wrong.. there was a month to communicate a correction.. the entire weekend went by and still no official word

[celest relic]

Replying to my own message, but I’m realizing Tripp gives voyager loot boost so who knows

[desert laurel]

That's a stronger position than calling it useless.

[errant surge]

but then you are missing the point........."Occasionally" and "few things a month" are two different things and means something isnt reliable.

[rotund spire]

I never used the word useless.. at least i do not believe i did.. but missing the first 2 weeks with the expectation to throw it all in the 3rd week for many… does make it useless

[errant surge]

But I do thank you for at least having the decency to speak to us and I dont blame you or annoy you specifically over this as its not your fault

[desert laurel]

Not saying you used the word useless, but that's the theme of the convo. You used NECESSARY, which has all sorts of connotations about what happens when something doesn't meet that requirement.

[rotund spire]

Definitely not candles fault nor do we blame candle or the mods… but in our defense.. they are taking the company line as opposed to just moderating the conversation

A good schedule is necessary for planning

If the schedule changed then it NEEDS to be communicated

[desert laurel]

I spend time to post the schedule in #💫-event-information because I believe it's useful for players. I get that players want perfect information at all times, but I know that that isn't what you're going to get. Wanting better than what we get is good, but ignoring what they manage seems overzealous.

[rotund spire]

@desert laurel The problem is that Scopely does not communicate changes to the event schedule.. Changes to the game should be communicated in game with appropriate notice… Discord should be secondary

[bitter snow]

I find I achieve a better quality of life by largely ignoring the schedule and just playing what happens, rather than plotting for specific events that may or may not change...

Not to say I don't appreciate the effort you put in, @desert laurel 👀

[errant surge]

As for the Management - including Devs and content creators who are online atm or sipping cocktails atm on their cruise.....I am not allowed to say what I think of them.

[bitter snow]

playing the game 'perfectly' and hitting all the events etc works for some, but even playing it imperfectly probably only delays progress for the equivalent of a few days for every month 🙂

It'd be great if communication was 100% perfect every time

it really would

[errant surge]

Missing out on Key Officers that you dont know when will be sourced next is not delaying progress for a few days. If I were you I would let Candle continue with the situation.

[rotund spire]

Or months

[bitter snow]

I am 14 shards short of archer, and would have nabbed him with a third SMS... annoying, sure, but it's a game 🤷‍♂️

[errant surge]

No comment.

[dreamy patio]

12 shards into tier two, was hoping to at least get him halfway to the next tier

[bitter snow]

Serenity prayer is useful when dealing with Scopely at times 😄

[dreamy patio]

Alcohol is more useful

[bitter snow]

similar end result I imagine 😂

[errant surge]

sorry wasnt invited to the cruise

[bitter snow]

Cruises are just an expensive way to get sick 😂

if I want to spend that much time on an enclosed space with people I'll hop on the train at rush hour 😄

[ornate geyser]

This is true. It is what it is…endlessly bashing head on brick wall is exhausting, lol.

[brisk junco]

In the meantime they have deleted the event schedule from the in game news channel… seems as if they think this says more than a thousand words as otherwise: No comment.

[patent dust]

In regards to officer acquisition, if they want to change the schedule they need to give reasonable notice (enough so players can take other opportunities). Simple as that. Anything else is totally unacceptable. No excuses.

[whole prairie]

you mean those 2 events for THE officer which is needed to get the xindi loot most efficient? If it would be for any PvP officer I really would not care (and most would not do either I think) but this officer is for the new timesink in the game ... farming xindi

[dreamy patio]

Okay that's kind of hilarious.

In a not so hilarious kind of way.

[ornate geyser]

They didn’t. So now what? How does “totally unacceptable” manifest for you?

[desert laurel]

Removing the event schedule from in-game makes sense. The arc part is over.

[hazy saffron]

Hey guys its okay! Scopely does it all the time so thats just how things go! keep spending money and they'll all keep making excuses. Don't worry, you're deffinitely not appreciated as customers. At least we all know where we stand.

[dreamy trench]

Uhhh, next kick in the egg of some players, HOW SHOULD A OPS 58 KILL A 61+???? THE WARP PART IS OPS 60 LOCK

https://tenor.com/view/scopely-gif-24824538

[patent dust]

It manifests in letting people rant to their heart's content, so hopefully Scopely gets the message. Open as many support tickets as possible so they get a sense of how bad this was. They now have a canned response, but I'm sure they are tracking the complaint numbers.

[dreamy trench]

Well done, you show Scopely do all right and need nothing to change or make better 👏👏👏

[rotund spire]

They fixed the english last month… level 60 freebooters count

I’m 59 and are counting for me today.. i wonder if the translation was a miss

[deep steeple]

No military supremcy for me again this month, same as before i must be missing that secret formula that gets the event

[dreamy trench]

Will test it, thx

[umbral olive]

Will they refund any packs that were purchased in anticipation of scheduled events?

Because Mastercard customer service agent thinks they should

[keen mist]

Probably not because you actually received "goods" for yo cash.

[desert laurel]

That's a CS question. I'd file a ticket. #👽-how-to-contact-support

[celest relic]

Are they gonna add mats to the crucible sms? I’m not starting it yet in case I’ll miss rewards. Any thoughts?

[dreamy patio]

why would they? the rewards have been the same forever

[celest relic]

Really? I coulda swore it had mats before. Thanks! I’ll start hostile pew pew now

[opal mantle]

Oof, kinda hate the week between arcs

[flint canopy]

Any word on what we get the schedule for the week? Is there a faction hunt? Do we know the date and time for incursions? Is there another Borg event? Etc.

[covert frigate]

and the joke keeps on getting bigger and better

[errant surge]

indeed .....to the point im logging off

[stable crow]

it's just the extra vault, ignore it and get the one in the middle of next month.

[forest knoll]

At least you have the event.

[abstract talon]

Yet again Scopely shaft it's players.

[umbral olive]

I'm sure scopely would handle that suuuuuper fairly and not ban my account

I mean really, it would be a favor at this point

[desert laurel]

There's no reason to ban someone that asks a question. You can also wait to see what this week's replacement events will be for Archer. You might still get a chance to use what you bought.

[umbral olive]

let's hope

[gray aurora]

how is it that there's an "interim event schedule" on fb before any of the announcement channels here?

[desert laurel]

Have a SS?

[gray aurora]

and the crucible and megacube events are regular monthly events, so no surprise anyway
and voy event is already in events tab 😂

does that mean there's no flash pass this week? 🤔

[desert laurel]

OFP starts on tuesdays, and we've pretty much always had them. I'd expect it still.

[gray aurora]

you mean we can't rely on $copely communications for accuracy? 😱

gonna hold my breath waiting for an update
and curse you all when I die 😂

[lusty lily]

Soooo faction hunt? Yes or no?

[steady hedge]

Looks like a no.

[neat echo]

Faction Hunt doesn't exist anymore, they will do it when they're in the mood for it

[glad orbit]

Hey, they gave us a gift for their screwing us over on the SLB. The gift is the middle finger

[neat echo]

Middle finger would be a nicer gift as that one

[glad orbit]

So glad I spent half of what I had saved up for the Archer SLB. Now I definitely won't be able to get Archer without spending money for a long, long time. And since they decided to screw us over, that won't be happening either. Not even buying the Battlepass anymore. Such disappointment. Betray the customers to make a quick buck. Rev should never have done his video on Archer, cause thats when they changed the SLB

[wary oxide]

Occasionally? “Hiccups” are more common than following the schedule. Often there are issues with the events/calendar on consecutive days

[hazy saffron]

Guys, you can't take what anyone with a role tag says seriously. They're all here to shill for scopely. Same goes for their chosen content creators.

[fiery compass]

the vast majority of events listed happen as listed, don't be absurd.

[dreamy patio]

The issue isn't really that they change them it's that they purposely omit some so they can squeeze packs out of people

[fiery compass]

sure. certainly the surprise events are often so they can make money and it's frustrating the way they do that at times.

some people walk in here like "Scopely personally made the local pizza place mess up my order" and call you a shill for suggesting that that's unrelated.
I have complaints aplenty. for example, the fact that I've made it to ops 49 without a jellyfish suggests that the ship needs better sourcing.

[jolly sun]

Just scrapped one, another one lvl 50 and got another one not built, sounds like your not sourcing via alliance or have no RNG with Epic 3* chests (4/2 each pull)

Now if u said Borg Cube, can’t argue that

[wary oxide]

They happen sure. But do they start in time? Have the correct event description? Scoring?

[dreamy patio]

or you need to get a pair of sheers and find a rabbit

pulling 1 bp a week, and the armada boxes, i had 2 by 51

halfway to a third

1 is maxed, other is tier 10

[fiery compass]

I don't have the service

id say my path to 49 has been probably shorter than most but admittedly likely longer than yours was

[dreamy patio]

i stayed at 49 for like 2 months because i liked the brackets

lol

accidently hit 50 trying to rush a generator and instead hit the ops

outside of a slb

[fiery compass]

I'll be here a bit collecting rare g4

[dreamy patio]

which made me mad

was popping the generator for an sms

[fiery compass]

for the most part yes, and they're not memorable and so you don't easily remember this fact, but a vast majority of scheduled events happened and work fine for the majority of players.

[fiery compass]

even my generators cost refined materials these days and it's annoying

[dreamy patio]

wish i saved some for that special building slb

[fiery compass]

I'm never gonna use the things and I'm tired of upgrading them

[dreamy patio]

first time they ran it, scored 1st by a huge margin because no one realized the ore scored

Was the same for me with that slb for the sarco

massive scoring, no one could keep up

[fiery compass]

last time around, i looked at it and ore scored horribly - at least in g4

[wary oxide]

@fiery compass what is an epic commander?

[fiery compass]

I am a normal player; I don't have an NDA, compensation, or anything of the sort. I have a green name and a title because the mods (incidentally, also volunteers) decided that I was being helpful to people for no real reason and, in their utter kindness, turned my name (and a few others' names) green so that people might point and laugh. Or maybe be more inclined to listen when I'm trying to be helpful. Who knows. I have no actual power here or anywhere else.

[dreamy patio]

They get to be the red shirts, while wearing green

First to get fired at

[gray aurora]

"epic commander" sounds so much better than "cannon fodder" 😂

[glad orbit]

I don't have a problem with them changing events.
Okay, that's a lie, but I can accept it.
BUT FOR ****'S SAKE, TELL IS ABOUT IT!!!

[gray aurora]

🤐

the change was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying ‘Beware of the Leopard.'

[alpine yoke]

$20 says the make-up Archer events they communicated to Rev are going to be the one week battlepass they already had scheduled

[dreamy patio]

would not surprise me at all

[ripe jungle]

Don’t you open g3 epic chests any more 👀

[fiery compass]

i do! clearly not enough

especially since there's the bind of needing to open epic g4 chests to upgrade the ACC, and as i approach ops 49 that's an actual necessity as ACC 45's a hard requirement for ops soon

[ripe jungle]

I’ve built two and can almost build 3 more (322 bps)

5k/week for the g3 chests is nothing

[charred shadow]

So looks like no faction hunt again? That will be the second time. That’s a big loss of epic recruit tokens, faction credits and officer xp. That’s not including the mats

[granite gust]

When is the makeup archer sms and slb scheduled for?

Or is the replacement event for archer sourcing our ability to buy mountains of xindi chaser packs?

[spice shadow]

Got a T3 from the free gift! 😄

[rotund spire]

Anyone know what the free gift was for,.. better not be for the archer mess up

Getting a t1 worth 700 syndicate xp is 100000% not equivalent

[gray aurora]

😱 BLASPHEMER!!!

[open siren]

Pretty sure it's just bait to get people to spend for more

[rotund spire]

Then the freebies should be giving out T3’s and t4’s like candy… cause getting t1 reward SNORT

[open siren]

Yeah, agreed... it's backfiring if anything, everyone is getting to see just how crappy the odds are

[ornate geyser]

There was that one glorious event a month or two ago that paid out rivers of rare ACC…hopefully it comes back.

[ionic fjord]

The gift results in most cases i heard in S1 coins. So what kind of gift should this be? An apology? Nothing more to lough about, when its worth 750 syndicate

[ripe jungle]

Almost there

[dreamy patio]

wonder if they're ever going to extend it

[gray aurora]

I think one must refer to the Ferengi Rules of Aquisition

[austere stirrup]

You got a free lottery ticket. Some got a measly officer or sync xp others got a full unlock of nx

[molten sigil]

Prolly just a free taste to try to get you to buy

[mental yoke]

1 epic shard. I can’t even be bothered to deal with the scopely website for a free one daily.

[wind fog]

Technically they didn’t post a schedule yet so I’m hoping there’s a FH in there somewhere

[dreamy patio]

it's not

[wind fog]

No schedule

[dreamy patio]

this is the schedule

[wind fog]

They can still put a FH in there, and where is that posted?

[dreamy patio]

they aren't

[light elm]

<@&509690795536941056> Can we get clarification on if this incursion will go back to the the normal 24 hours, or if it is 16 again?

I have players who did not complete the SMS last time because the 16 hour thing was not advertised and they normally play early in the morning

[dreamy patio]

he said it will be 24 hours, but remember he said that last time and it ended up being 12, so we'll have to actually wait until it starts to be sure

[light elm]

Thanks

[wind fog]

They copied the previous incursions that were run right before a maintenance, thus the shortened timers. We can only hope they fix the timers beforehand

[sudden breach]

I hate the incursion thing with a passion. Looks like I need to donate my resources to my alliance and fade away.

[tight flower]

I liked it in the early days when they had a few SMSs to do, that required people to come out of their shells and grind swarm or do something else (dangerously).
Maybe some armada event or something?

Now it's the same pvp events every time, and it comes down to which side has the biggest player fall asleep with their shields down.

[hazy saffron]

That is 100% what it comes down to

[umbral olive]

Would be cool if we had to do waves with the other server

[neat echo]

Since Scopeley decided to change anything whenever they want it also could be 2 hours

[jolly sun]

Zero PvP, that sounds terrible 😆

[nocturne cave]

soo when are these archer events ? not during incursion i hope

[cunning radish]

yeah got mine does a week or so ago

tis nice

[tame wave]

😡

[bitter snow]

looking at #⭐-official-announcements , seems like there'll be a 5 shard gift?

if you do all the events, you'll end up at 114/115 on the second tier... but it's an unlock at least? 👀

[tame wave]

Thanks I actually did miss the announcement somehow

[keen mist]

The pitchforks were blocking your view.

[strange bear]

Hey gang, is there an interim schedule out anywhere? 🤔

[strange bear]

Wow thanks lol

It’s so nice for interim!

[neat echo]

They said there will come events for archer but perhaps they will cancel it without communication 😄

[scarlet osprey]

So we have no idea what events are coming at server reset?

[arctic knoll]

Cause of course the spend event is middle of the week whenever one is tapped, why not just go ahead and call it a buy packs event

[jolly sun]

As they removed most the packs you needed for a material spend, they don’t even want your money

[arctic knoll]

I don't think they realize how slowly the refineries go... Nor the bottlenecks in spending we can hit...

[celest relic]

Oh they realize. They planned it that way. Their whole model requires frustration spending

[arctic knoll]

Frustration till it drives us off...

[dreamy patio]

they aren't.

Heroic SMS (spending materials) Syndicate Event Armada Event an engagement event

[rancid kelp]

Brilliant strategy, Scopely. Pretend we're not getting the archer SMS and get us to spend our mats for the XSLB instead, then spring it on us today instead. Act like it was an honest mistake and you're trying to make it right. I commend you for your brilliance.

[celest relic]

Sadly, the top 3% of spenders drive their revenue models. Churn for the bottom 20% is expected. (I’ve only worked in other industries so those percentages are blind in mobile gaming, but you get the idea)

[finite cypress]

Nobody realizes that what Scopely wants is to incorporate lock boxes. This is just a test.
They want to turn the game into a slot machine

[arctic knoll]

Yeah, granted we don't know what the other events look like an syndicate has trended out of reach, but hopefully should be reasonable events

[boreal hinge]

Scopely thanks for freeing archer.

[arctic knoll]

Yeah, it seems like Pareto is put to shame and a really small minority spend insane amounts regardless... And unless those really big spenders are displeased, things are good for Scopely... Sadly

[arctic knoll]

Xindi Chase definitely showed a desire to go fully bad slot machine. Grant things that bad seem like what gets regulatory folks paying attention...

[celest relic]

Yeah, 3.5% of a good reward tier…crazy

[rancid kelp]

Nah. Gambling as a money-maker in games is falling off hard, it's been out of style for a while. FOMO and frustration spending is way more powerful.

[cold horizon]

Scamply has changed spend events in such a way that it becomes very hard to unlock new officers that way. Apparently, scopely doesnt want the officers to be used by many players. I then suggest to not introduce new officers at all.
And btw: we were promised more quality and less quantity; that promise was not fulfilled yet. We got more quantity and less quality

[ornate geyser]

Mobile games would kill for 20% churn at the bottom. The single biggest grind on the development side is the endless acquisition of new players. Once I heard what the CAC was for this game…the pack prices made sense, lol.

I’m not paying…but I get the pricing.

[placid cipher]

im not paying for this event either i put in enough res for the most recent spend event when scopely decided to go for a media blackout explaining why no archer

[tawny kraken]

Had 2 free gift chests of xindi currency think im doing a man look. Can see where its used ??

[dreamy patio]

recruit section, then event store

[merry fulcrum]

Trust me...it used to be way worse
A single upgrade on a tier 4 enterprise took about 2 months without spending about 3 years ago

The massive 12k unc upgrade took about 6 months to get the unc at that time

[arctic knoll]

Yikes, although I think even if they won't admit it there is a reason for a lot of new efficiencies...

[arctic knoll]

Recruit tab for the RNG converter

[merry fulcrum]

Efficiency research is just a paid bandaid to fix issues with the game that they won't address cause it'll cost them $$$ by their logic

[arctic knoll]

Research, favor, artifacts...there are a lot of "ooops" mechanics they've put instead of just trying to fix the actual pain points

[merry fulcrum]

Trust me, once you get to late 30s the game loses all interest if you don't spend hours a day grinding everything to lower costs and times for builds

At that point it's only decent if you pay or spend hours a day grinding

[tame timber]

President @pseudo rune or I should say President sleepy Eco !! Lately, your announcement are late or you forget to send messages announcement before events and missing parts of the announcement like yesterday announcement of 4 events without dates when they be running

For example when is the armada event, Syndicate event and this special event going to run per your last announcement?? PRESIDENT SLEEPY @pseudo rune

[pale rain]

Gl george

[glass hawk]

When the heroic spend appears by itself with no SLB i do not participate in it..

[placid cipher]

thanks for the tip buddy 👍 i could of saved myself so much trit

[pale rain]

Slb's aren't an option for me. As a 52 competing against ppl in g6 i don't even place. Sms is all i got
