[dreamy patio]

and if there was, i have a chancla with their name on it

[ripe bronze]

@dreamy patio event button is still broken

[dreamy patio]

Did you get the update for pc or android?

[plucky ermine]

<@&509690795536941056> ok guys an apology is required, when the information is not correct. I just did a test, buying a 4-pack of the time-weapon in DTI store: that's after and before. So the conversion goes to TEMPORAL DISRUPTORS and not the remnants like others have stated. Which fixes my main issues, acquiring temporal Disruptors for Artifact Acquistions. I don't have an issue with the AT implications, as AT has multiple ways of doing tasks. But still, #free-dti should still be a thing as this change is also completely unneeded

[slender escarp]

Mine went and go straight to remnants

[dreamy patio]

Regular artifacts are converted to artifact remnants, temporal artifacts are converted to temporal disruptors, they're the same item, different names.

[slender escarp]

I opened xindi armada chests, got 30+ eyes of ara, there are none in my artifacts exchange in alliance store to convert to disruptors, but I have more remnant cubes than before

[plucky ermine]

well the will not go to the temporal store, but they will get converted automatically to disruptors. Maybe they did a change in the backend compared to how it worked earlier today. My test clearly proves they get auto-converted to temporal disruptors. What solves the major part of the issue for me

[native token]

Wait, to unlock Khans champion for the missions, I need to be at SUPERIOR RANK, and to get the patron rank is 10M faction points? Superior looks like it is 2 levels above that? Maximum rep I can get for killing hostiles (level 52) is 3300. So 3000+ hostiles for the first rank, and how many for the next 2. This is ridiculously insulting to players. Seriously, what is wrong with you all ?

[slender escarp]

There’ll be a pack for that

[plucky ermine]

Actually no. Temporal disruptors serve a totally different purpose as they can be exchanged for either other temporal artifacts or be converted to TEMPORAL REMNANTS which would share the functionality of normal normal artifact remnants

[native token]

I'm buying anything from them anymore until they get their heads out of you know what. This whole arc and their execution is pathetic...

[minor cave]

Need help, in order to complete the stand missions I need to defeat one of Khan's champions, which I'm assuming is one of these, but they don't unlock until rep Superior. Are we going to be able to earn enough rep to get there without buying packs within the time limit?

[native token]

No

[dreamy patio]

unlikely, but the issue has been raised, when we hear more, we'll let everyone know

[desert plover]

I wonder what the kill count needed is going to be for today's Heroic kill exiles event........

[sage bronze]

Was there any mention of working on the EE SMS that is about to repeat another 5 times? The numbers are just ridiculously high.

[native token]

Who cares, I gave up on the first one as I don't have 12 hours to play this game. Entire event is already over, cannot complete it. So poorly balanced and thought out it is insulting

[little radish]

I bet soon they will probably release a specialty ship or tech $$$, to get more loot and allow autogrinding

[pallid jungle]

Part 2 spoiler there

[native token]

Gee, I hope it is as useful and well received as the last two ship launches that almost no one bought...

[silent torrent]

How often do the traders spawn in wok systems?

[dreamy patio]

think around 20 minutes

[clever wasp]

The ship is in the cover art. Its khan's ship.

[pallid jungle]

By the time the f2p have unlocked it we may of just finished the sms 😜

[sage bronze]

It's actually Clark Terrell's ship which Khan simply takes over.

[raw aurora]

Whats the point, just finished work and have only few minutes to do yesterday events, we should be getting big compensation for missed events.

[quasi mountain]

Maybe moving forward…let’s not try and reinvent the whole game mechanic and add 100 new algorithms to what should be a stepped event roll out instead. @cosmic steeple

[finite meadow]

As usual, the players are unhappy and @cosmic steeple is nowhere to be found… how is there not a post in #⭐-official-announcements saying “Yes, we’re aware that the scoring tiers for the hostile event were obscene, yes we’re aware that we accidentally made one of the core arc missions impossible to complete… we’re going to fix the scoring going forward, adjust the mission, and compensate you all to high-heaven for once again launching an arc riddled with bugs and careless mistakes. We promise, despite our continued failures, that we do actually respect our players and are aware we’d all be on unemployment without them.”

But we know The Hamster hates criticism almost as much as taking responsibility, so undoubtedly this will either get ignored or deleted (and, I’m sure, I’ll get another scolding in my DMs for daring to speak badly of him)

[cold horizon]

<@&509690795536941056> pls ask scopley when they finally will fix this old, very frequently returning fail?

[rich oracle]

yesterday was bad, today you need the double amount of kills ??? ridiculous So i m supposed to kill 320 lvl 52s ... no way ... by far to boring ..

[grim dragon]

If in doubt…..$$$ pay!🤦‍♀️🤨

[pseudo warren]

nice away teams mission, need to spam away teams to finish🤔

[spice brook]

Xin-deep event missing

[pseudo warren]

I think 1 hour after events reset

[quaint goblet]

weekly events are 1 hour out of sync with normal events. it will show up in an hour

[pearl isle]

<@&509690795536941056> recalculate the augment kill sms

[spice brook]

Yes I was confused by the Final Weapon event already showing up.

[rigid meteor]

absolutley rediculous, we complained yesterday with the unrealistic goals so now the target has been doubled... congrats on missing the mark once again Scopley....

[quaint goblet]

since they 'reworked' the rewards for some of the weeklies, they're synced. because Scopely reasons

[sonic mist]

Tell me you want to drive people from the game without telling me.

[pseudo warren]

everything is confusing about their events schedule 😅

[finite meadow]

<@&509690795536941056> recalculate the augment sms

[modest bobcat]

Goal: kill 501 level 38s
Me: nah I’m good. Might kill some doomsday worms instead

[pseudo warren]

I think everyone is missing that all you need is 600 dollars worth of packs of khan + his SP to do the hostiles easily(you'll probably still die, there's negligible difference)

[formal spire]

Scopely is nuts

[pseudo warren]

I really think they're tryna make us move away from freeingdti....

[random fern]

Why is the event based on the new arc only giving up to G5 rss in rewards? Whats the point in myself a 61 ops doing them? Event in question is "EE Augment Exiles Engagement Heroic - SMS" ITs pointless in sending all the time needed for no G6 rss

[pseudo warren]

ever since arc dropped freedti has decreased

[wintry stirrup]

So majority of players were only able to kill 1 or 2 of the new hostiles equivalent to their level before dying right? Meaning the grind for that event was insane?

[finite meadow]

Correct

And worse today

[pseudo warren]

I couldn't even kill 52s at 55

[wintry stirrup]

Ok just making sure I’m not trippin cuz I had to punch down

[pseudo warren]

I was stuck to 50s

[rigid meteor]

Ops 62 here, had to kill 250 54's yesterday...... at 35/40 per run..... whose got time to do it twice again!

[crystal inlet]

Pretty much. I went as far as dropping down almost 10 levels so I didn't have to eat through several dozen hulls.

Today's event is somehow even worse :/

[pseudo warren]

did your SMS increase? if so get ready for more hostiles🤣

[finite meadow]

Ops 56 here, had to punch down to 50s — did 13 runs and still fell short on last milestone

[rigid meteor]

yeah, goals have doubled

[pseudo warren]

I'm not sure if mine went up, just made the push to 56 so unsure about previous sms

[finite meadow]

Won’t even bother today

[cold horizon]

So scopely thinks by doubling the amount of points needed to finsih EE sms and calling it ‘heroic’, they are listening to the community?
Are they now totallly gone batcrazy?

[honest edge]

https://tenor.com/view/karl-urban-vulcan-mind-star-trek-bones-doctor-gif-14401978

[pseudo warren]

actually nvm goals almost tripled for me, was 7mil yesterday and it's almost 21 mil today

[sudden moss]

<@&509690795536941056> Yesterdays SMS numbers were hours of grinding and many struggling to manage anything and today those numbers get doubled?
That is simple not doable for your regular player!!

[velvet phoenix]

They double the milestones 🤣

[finite meadow]

<@&509690795536941056> Do your job! Fix this event!

[cold horizon]

What a bunch of utter nonsense and total incompetence at scopely’s.

[pseudo warren]

<@&509690795536941056> I hate pinging y'all cuz pings r annoying but really could U tell the Devs that almost doubling/tripling the event is illegal? I'm really not spending 5 years grinding for the event nuh uh

[rapid umbra]

490 hostiles to finish an event...... cmon <@&509690795536941056>

[pseudo warren]

not even khan is gonna save me from the hours of grind

[velvet phoenix]

So much to listen to feedback 😂😂

[finite meadow]

Let’s ping <@&509690795536941056> until - god forbid - somebody takes some responsibility

[dreamy mortar]

Wasn't that difficult at 56...

[pseudo warren]

I just moved up and am saving for spend event this week to upgrade sanctus to t9

I'll need to spend loads ton of time just to finish it

it's not even the CMs fault tho

I'm sure they communicated it to the Devs it's the Devs fault for no listening

[cold horizon]

<@&509690795536941056>
Pls address the clear complaints from the entire community about the EE sms. Certainly now scopely thinks it was too easy. Make scopely clear how wrong their decisions are and how totally deaf they are to their customers.

[rapid umbra]

@dreamy mortar What lvl hostile were you hitting?

[mild fox]

Still waiting...

[sour lotus]

I dont get how anyone still buys packs with this dumb grind fest

[finite meadow]

Yep, I stopped completely

[steady viper]

Time for a boycott everyone

[fierce beacon]

Well, in doubling the SMS goals, Scopely made the decision easy. Not buying anything this arc.

[sage bronze]

It isn't the devs fault either. If anyone really thinks the devs come up with those numbers on their own without being told so by an arc runner, they haven't understood how this works.

[sour lotus]

Only measure they would feel

[cold horizon]

Scopelynhas totally lost touch with this game. It looks like they deliberately are offending the community. Apparently they are planning to close the game soon and want to grab some last money

[unborn wraith]

I am impressed by the literal doubling down on the bad event on day one. I have never seen a company 💩 on its income stream in such a fashion. It is a very bold move.

[smoky spear]

How many days till it starts maybe its just baiting you to get new ship next arc 😂

[rapid umbra]

@mild fox that likely won't change until you hit the next milestone

[dreamy mortar]

58. Lucked out with a 60 survey there too.

[pseudo warren]

dont they test it b4 releasing the events tho? theres no way they dont do beta tests

[hidden peak]

Omg, now i also can’t claim the rewards anymore 🙈

[cold horizon]

https://tenor.com/view/muppetwiki-muppet-wiki-muppets-muppet-angry-gif-4979240094074316588

[fickle imp]

<@&509690795536941056> the augment hostile event is joke as a lvl 63 I have to kill like 150 60s when I can kill 7 in 1 trip and loads of other people have same problems and then today the score gets doubled seriously

[finite meadow]

What crew are you using to hit 58s as a 56 (with, I’m assuming, Sanctus)?

[steady viper]

BOYCOTT THIS DUMPSTER FIRE

[wintry stirrup]

They definitely built that event with the divide between mobile and PC. Like the style of sitting down and playing one PC game the whole day(not bashing anyone that does). But treating that as the bare minimum when the game still is a mobile game

[dapper merlin]

of course i'll quit my job and just do the stupid events.

[dreamy mortar]

Yes, T7 Sanct

[smoky spear]

Whats your highest power ship ?

[pseudo warren]

bold of you to asssume everyone has annorax 🤣

[subtle elk]

It's like they're tired of all the work they have to do, so they're trying to scale back on the number of players by getting them to quit while still making some dough.

[pallid sparrow]

311 lvl 50s at ~15 per repair ... sure not wasting my time doing such ....

[pseudo warren]

i dont even have janeway yet 😅

[smoky spear]

Cause if you got maxed out g5 epic should be able kill more than 7

[fickle imp]

2.8 billion ent and a 3.4 billion neghvar

[finite meadow]

Oh, you’re just crazy prime researched 😂 normal T7 Sanctus is not putting up that kind of power

[dreamy mortar]

When did I assume anything? I just answered the person's question... 🤷‍♂️

[rapid umbra]

so i have a tier 6 crozier at 644K. I'm not hittuing 58's anytime soon

[smoky spear]

What crew and like do you have maxed out belana and kim ? Or for ent

[rapid umbra]

6445M

644M geez

[rapid cloak]

What the **** is this? 814 kills in 24 hrs??!!

[pseudo warren]

i only see t8s with that power 🤣

[fickle imp]

Yes maxied belana on ent using pm e data

[finite meadow]

All good - but makes me feel less crazy that I can’t hit 58s!!

[smoky spear]

Don't try janeway doctor annarox , Picard Beverly annarox , or snw pike s31 gorgeo and kirk

Mitigation shouldn't be big problem on snw crew if you use tom bda

[cold horizon]

Any company working that way would lay off all managers for incompetence. For scopely, incompetence is a requirement to get a job there

[dull belfry]

what in the what? you double the sms pts from yesterday, call it heroic, and make it the only event for today for the meta. fire everyone involved with this arc.

[fickle imp]

Alright will give it a go later just seems that lots are struggling

[cold horizon]

Another one of their LIES

[smoky spear]

You should be able to kill way more with those try to see which one gives u most kills

[honest edge]

I imagine that the 2k hostile limit is still in place, though

[pseudo warren]

their website is funny lol

[finite meadow]

So far the totality of <@&509690795536941056> ‘s “doing better” is just spending less time responding to player concerns

[fair mountain]

502 hostiles for the daily event, wtaf. Means 60 odd trips to hit the 54’s.

[cold horizon]

<@&509690795536941056>: pls give a response to this new nonsense; any response. Loads of ppl here are begging for it and it remains quiet. And scopley should come with an official announcement why they choose to not listen to the community

[quartz helm]

Even for a Military Supremacy you get 3 days...

[rapid cloak]

814 kills on the 40s, I can't touch the next system up

[trail igloo]

They took all the whales buying packs as the only response they need to listen too. So many bought packs while game was still broken. This isn't just scopes fault if I'm being honest.

[pseudo warren]

we just want an answer man, any answer. communication is key in all types of games not just stfc

[fierce beacon]

This isn't Wrath of Khan. It's Greed of Con Men.

[pseudo warren]

tbh i tot this would be a great arc but it aint starting well and its only day 2

[scarlet osprey]

Final Weapon Wednesday began an hour before Tech Tuesday ended. Unintentional, or are they trying to shift the weekly events?

[quaint goblet]

the weekly events that were reworked to increase rewards now sync with normal events, whereas the other weeklies start/end an hour after

[idle bobcat]

iOS still not fixed so don’t know if I finished yesterday’s events…or events for today

[cold horizon]

Scopely’s faults are widespread. You forgot qbout the launch yesterday already? This EE sms is another one. Dont blame the whales, blame scraply

[cold horizon]

Due to incompetence

[pseudo warren]

even my whales that bought khan didnt even do the sms, they just said they arent grinding that much and went offline or went to pvp instead

[trail igloo]

Did you read my message? I clearly said this is the whales and scopes fault lmao.

[smoky spear]

Bet someday game will disappear 😂 like nothing happened imagine if they give the reason "Bankrupt"

[astral sedge]

What happened to Quality > Quantity? Might as well have us mine 6M Tritanium

[marsh vault]

The New enemy Event sucks😡

[finite meadow]

lol someone’s online because my post just got deleted 😂😂😂😂

[neon badge]

148 mil

I'm done

[twin hatch]

My main story, fed & Kling missions have disappeared from the menu. The. Game. Needs. Fixing.

[smoky spear]

That post was deleted if you know what i mean 😂

[cold horizon]

That promise was totally empty. In fact, it wasnt a promise, it was a deliberate lie

[pseudo warren]

not even surprised 🤣

[pallid sparrow]

lets make it 12M as its a heroic :p

[rapid cloak]

"Alternative facts"

[pseudo warren]

"slap heroic there and i can get away with whatever i want"

[potent sun]

<@&509690795536941056> Echo this 100%. I just hit 63, I would need to make over 40 trips worth of hulls to complete a 1 day SMS. Heroic or not, that's completely insane.

[pseudo warren]

funny how even whales wouldnt want to do the event if theres that much grind

[smoky spear]

Scopely and apple can never go bankrupt with how much they make 🙂 it will be real funny if thats the excuse they give lol

[rapid cloak]

200% - at my level and what I can hit, I'm looking at 100+ hulls

[potent sun]

It took 120 kills to do the NON HEROIC SMS yesterday

[mild fox]

Tiered D'vor one more time, as told by Hammy, STILL didn't count to finish the event...

[hexed gorge]

Oh, so 45m wasn't enough, so you had to raise the target to 90m. Really scopley !!!!! Really

[cold horizon]

Scopey whipes their behinds with community complaints

[unborn wraith]

<@&509690795536941056> As today’s grind is labelled as heroic, I assume that it is a spend event and so is extra.
As the 2 sms are not labelled as such, can we skip today’s grind event and still complete the 2 meta events?

[native token]

Really, double the hostiles for EE today over yesterday. Scopley and everyone there can go do you know what... Please take this entire event and delete it. Pathetic treatment of players.

[loud belfry]

So you double the points call it heroic, yet rewards are the same!

[unborn wraith]

They will never be caught short without paper

[cold horizon]

The EE SMS is now ‘heroic’, but rewards are not different than yesterdays sms.
So this is a scam

[native token]

This is a waste of everyones time

[neon plover]

This is supposed to be a game not a never ending chore.

[hard stream]

I was looking forward to this Arc. And the powers to be really messed it up!!!!

[neon badge]

Don't let this arc runner near any more arcs, maybe let him clean the toilets

[cold horizon]

Better delete the entire arc. It is a 100% fail

[quasi token]

Are you high?

[rapid cloak]

The 'heroic flush' (needed for #2's) are only sourced in the store

[chilly edge]

You can stick that EE sms where the sun don't shine 😂 completely beyond a joke

[potent sun]

FWIW - even from a monetization design standpoint this is awful. You can't pay your way out of these SMS, and if you miss 1 day you immediately have less incentive to play this month, decreasing playtime and engagement because of how the month long SMS events are set up.

[unborn wraith]

Wonder if it is cheaper to buy packs at this point or hire a full time player to run my account to complete the events.

[trail igloo]

The moderators and support team are quietly munching on their Tacos and beans purchased with all the sheep's CC payments. 🤣

[floral quarry]

Scopley really messed up on this opening event.

[rapid cloak]

And don't forget part of the arc mission is rep locked behind the same hostiles

[warm sorrel]

check the schedule, we are going back and forth between this and the normal event for the whole arc

[zinc dock]

200 hostile to kill ?!? No Thanks !!!!!

[nova oar]

Yeah NO!!! took me HOURS to do the 1st one

[crystal inlet]

I don't think I could kill enough of these hostiles this month to get to the rep level needed lol

[vital vortex]

I see that scopely still hasnt adressed the D'Vor situation.

[subtle elk]

"Maypril Fool's folks! Just kidding!" Scopely tomorrow

[true ocean]

You think that’s bad, I need 148 million points to complete!

[nova oar]

you will find that most players will have to kill closer to 600 not 200

[mellow vessel]

Normal games u are exited for the updates Scopley update makes u quit the game

[rapid cloak]

I need 16251 kills still to reach Patron, not sure on the next hop to where I can actually finish the arc mission.

[warped ginkgo]

The difficulty increase is relative. It doubled for everyone, so it's equally as hard for each bracket technically.

[nova oar]

i know and they keep spouting quality of life i was losing the will to live with the 1st one 28 rounds it took to complete the 1st so the 2nd will be closer to 60

[uncut idol]

Such a fun and Engaging Event Mission SMS, just like the first one, only this time 1.2 Mil instead of 602k.. and im only Ops 44, i know others higher get even Higher requirements, and everyone thinks this SMS is Ridicules with its requirements of this SMS...

[hexed gorge]

I didn't bother

[trail igloo]

So tell me they didn't know beforehand this event was coming, even after all the negative feedback from the 1st one, and yet let it roll out anyways. Bwahahahaha

[nova oar]

well im off for the night im completely exhausted doing the 1st one good luck all bbl

[upper fractal]

I should never have mentioned, grinding was Zen

[meager ivy]

wanna swap?

Scopely: "We hear your concerns and we are making the game more realistic and playable" Players: "the milestones are too high" Scopely: "here. let me make them even higher!"

[dreamy robin]

We can't finish the missions because we can challenge Khan's Champion until we reach Superior. Someone did not think this through.

[fierce beacon]

1.94m? Pffft. Try 21.6m. And I'm only Ops 56. I'm officially on the bench for this arc, thanks.

[native kestrel]

https://media.tenor.com/tXUh3cfk9BoAAAAM/trendizisst-drama-llama.gif

[hexed gorge]

Player Base: surely today can't be any worse than launch day.
Scopley:

[uncut idol]

No, i know that everyone's has doubled, and complained.. and that since yesterday's first, yet they have no actively done anything about it nor Communicated that they are looking into changing it for next... tbh they should just free pass this one today for everyone and change the ones for tomorrow and forward to require far less 😶 its not like they can't do it either...

[fierce beacon]

But they DID think it through. They want you to spend in order to complete it.

[meager ivy]

ops 56 have slightly stronger ships than ops46...;)

[proper scroll]

Does scopely realise it’s may not April we ain’t fools 😉

[frank raven]

While not an event, did anyone read any of the mission novels while doing them while dodging the D7's? Just smashing the button to get to the next step.

[proper scroll]

The loop grind is bad enough how we fix it… make it worse lol. Glad to see they listen to our feedback 🙂

[fierce beacon]

Doesn't necessarily make it easier or less of a grind. Took me dam near all day to finish yesterday's.

[dreamy robin]

This is stupid.

[proper scroll]

Yesterdays event

Today’s event

[meager ivy]

i didnt even bother

[night crater]

Tomorrow will be triple

[meager ivy]

no they double todays.

[hybrid relic]

The requirements for the EE hostile events are simply rediculous....aint gonna do it

[proper scroll]

Am I just crazy or is the heroic sms rewards similar to the normal from yesterday?

[meager ivy]

its for the whales... because 90% of the server didnt even try yesterday

[trail igloo]

They are the same for double the effort

[glossy crypt]

Yeh they don’t care how much we have all complained total kick in the nuts .as far as they are concerned we do want we want and you will either do it or not

[silent hedge]

500 hostiles to complete yesterday's event

[proper scroll]

I think they legit messed it up swapped the resource and it shoulda been a normal sms but they added heroic points

<@&509690795536941056> can you please check this ^
Is today’s sms supposed to be heroic points with what looks like normal sns rewards?

[silent hedge]

And now yall double it.....rewards aren't worth that grind

[rapid cloak]

even normal was a fuster as it took 400+ kills

[meager ivy]

<@&509690795536941056> any news on yesterdays pillars event?

[twin hollow]

What stupid arc you did scopely, imposible events and missions...

[prisma lava]

Ridiculous milestones. RIDICULOUS.

[trail igloo]

Two things have not changed. Scopely Fails, and whale eagerly buying failed services. As long as these two stay the same, nothing will really change. Cash rules everything and as long as whales don't care about buying garbage, Scopely will continue to put it out for them.

[fleet fox]

So everyone complained about the new grind so what does scopely do...double the pts needed to finish event

[slim jungle]

the milestones doubled from yesterday 😦

[rough hill]

@scopley @devs thanks (NOT) for the most terrible arc so far. You out done yourselves.
Evolving enemies yesterday wasway to much of a grind. But what do you know, today it's doubled in the amount on needed kills. Wow.... Oh forgot to put the sarcasm mode on

[cold horizon]

Making the EE SMS heroic with same rewards as yesterday, means scopely actually saw our complaints, and deliberately choose not to do anything about it.
Having heroic sms’s for which meta events are on, means they just dont care, they spit on us all

[fleet fox]

If they want players to quit they should just let the game run on its own with no new content

[rapid cloak]

That'd be an improvement, no new things to have to add into the mix, I could concentrate on some of my other ships that are neglected

[cold horizon]

Scopely not bringing new content would actually be a good thing. Most of new content is unfinished, bugged and not well thought over anyway

[late inlet]

At ops 50, I can hit l40 AE for 6k each. So, 5.1M would need 850 hostiles?!?!

[rapid cloak]

Yep...buckle up buttercup, you aren't doing anything else today

[eager hill]

it took me all day to do yesterday's event and that was 2.5m points. good job scopes👎👎

[trail igloo]

Try auto grinding, oh wait they made that impossible too. 🤣

[cold horizon]

Thts scraply saying they would make life easier woth this update

[twin hollow]

And they ignore us

[viral yarrow]

<@&509691205798592532> what is scopley playing at, not quality of life improvements.
Spent a few hours last night killing new hostiles and could only get milestone 2.
Now today they have doubled the score I need to do milestones 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

[late inlet]

<@&509690795536941056> What is going on with this arc?!?!?

[eager hill]

technically not doing the event is easier, so they are right about that

[trail igloo]

Waiting for the $99 skip Arc pack. 🙄

[dawn topaz]

This arc is 10000% pack greed. The amount of grinding only to have errors and no response to tickets is BS.

[cold horizon]

Normally, at any other game, the arc runner would have been fired by now. At scopely, he probably got promoted

[grizzled mulch]

<@&509690795536941056> Any word on why the SMS milestones were doubled but the rewards weren't?

[pearl isle]

<@&509690795536941056> time to pull all server plugs and closed signs up

[crystal inlet]

This is a great question....

[molten elm]

Such a badly thought out arc. Is there any trend between the really rubbish ones with silly requirements and the creators working on them. We seem to get the truly awful ones in quarterly intervals

[signal shadow]

does it now end on the 9th or on the 10th????

[crystal inlet]

I really don't want to call this arc rubbish.... the officers and other rewards in the faction store are things I've wanted added for some time... just the implemtation is uh....... disappointing for content that is actually quite rewarding if it wasn't such a time sink

[twin hollow]

Is someone from scopely going to give an explanation?

[true ocean]

Highly unlikely

[twin hollow]

Maybe is time to not spend an euro in this game

[cold horizon]

Time to write some really bad reviews in the app stores.

[trail igloo]

From Scopley :

[late inlet]

So this and the overflow is a total loss. Even if the milestones were reasonable, there's 50 people packed in the l40 system, making that impossible...

[somber ocean]

That’s because they listened to scopley and leveled up. If I was foolish enough to level to 51 at my present power I would be the 15th most powerful

[meager ivy]

They gave him a mega bonus. Make whales great again

[minor vigil]

CM: Sir, the peasants are revolting!
Scopes: Yeah, they really stink on ice.

[late inlet]

Is there a Return Policy??

[meager ivy]

pfft scopely scan you make the epic one tomorrow 6 x todays points... I still wont complete it 🙂

[spice brook]

This is a RIDICULOUS SMS. And I say that knowing that I, at least, can complete it. Others are in an impossible situation.

[vague flint]

You lot are lucky you cant do it … I cant even see it 😜😂

[tardy dune]

where do we find Khans champions in Know your enemy pt 3

[cyan folio]

Augment faction store

[rapid mulch]

In another life, as you will have to grind all month to reach the Rep required

[crystal inlet]

Can I just say how absured it is that Lvl 40s in my alliance are punching down to the point where Lt. Picard works? AT LVL 40 and some up to 44!

[twilit kiln]

300mil needed for this event. took 300 kills on the 1st event.. so i'll need 600?! nnnnah fucit!!!

and only like 250 g6 uncommon gas....

[tawny mango]

So today i need 200 kills for SMS🤦🤮. Could you please make it 400 tommorow?

[cinder pebble]

<@&509690795536941056> what are we trying to accomplish with this SMS? The score is now double yesterday. I could not even complete it yesterday as a 52 because it took me 3 hours to get enough kills to finish the first milestone

[flint kayak]

200 kils is nothing i need 1000

[cinder pebble]

adding heroic is just a dumb cover

[edgy pivot]

Really? Doubled from yesterday? Is scopley high?

[shell hinge]

Double the amount?! You've got to be kidding?

[edgy pivot]

yes doubled

[versed osprey]

Its "heroic"

[cinder pebble]

"its heroic so that makes it ok

[edgy pivot]

a 1 day heroic, it is NOT OK

[tribal coral]

Scopely doing a great job destroying the goodwill of whats supposed to be the biggest arc of the year

[edgy pivot]

Scopley has to be smoking something good

[sage rivet]

@cold horizon yes that's True You invest money I hear you 😜

[cold horizon]

I will never and never have invested a penny in this crappy game

[native token]

time to organize a week long appropriate and measured player response to the demand to purchase everything

[shell hinge]

Scopely must be trying to set a record for the lowest completion rate for an sms event in all of gaming history

[inner cave]

I usually but the battle pass, but tempted not to with the expectation of having to buy an ‘enhanced’ battle pass as well

[floral trail]

I'm sure they'll be one solo person who manages it

[sage rivet]

@cold horizon also me too 👍

[echo girder]

How do I complete this one ?

[sweet roost]

<@&509690795536941056> It’s not April 1st… report this to dev, we have other things to do in 24h than killing stupid hostiles in crowed systems, trying to avoid unkillable hunters

[sweet roost]

You can buy the mission when you have 9m rep

[tribal coral]

60m rep

[shrewd light]

@cosmic steeple what's heroic about the event, other than the point needed is doubled yet the rewards are the same as yesterday's none heroic event

[unkempt linden]

I think scopley wants people to quit the game with this new arc🤣

[tribal coral]

Its wild how this is supposed to be the most important arc of the year and its a literal dumpster fire

[echo girder]

😱🤦‍♂️

[abstract gate]

The only thing scopely is managing to do is force us to quit... If events drain my day it no long becomes fun...

[meager ivy]

i need like 700 today

current position: 0

[unkempt linden]

Scopley: How do we get people to get reinvested in the game...I know let's make an arc so hard it will make our loyalists people quit...BRILLIANT! 🤣

[abstract gate]

I swear I killed 1k hostiles yesterday... I'm not about to do 2k today

[meager ivy]

We found the hero who is gonna try

you know that you dont get rewards after 2000 pve kills a day

[abstract gate]

Oh I know

[unkempt linden]

@abstract gate You kill 2k today tomorrow its 4k..🤣

[abstract gate]

I'm about to 30 day shield til the arc is over...

[viral yarrow]

The silence is deafening from the community managers and they are online 😂

[unkempt linden]

@viral yarrow They're writing their resignation letters

[abstract gate]

They will slow mode this chat soon like they did yesterday

Instead of listen to us they mute us and pretend everything is alright

[tribal coral]

They have said its being looked at but at the end of the day its upto the Money crunchers and Arc runner. If the arc runner says too bad nothing gets done

[wind fog]

Event is ridiculous, they need to do a better job with their math

[mild granite]

scopely be like...

[abstract gate]

I've never missed 1 event in 3 years and this is one I'm gonna miss the whole arc to.

[cold horizon]

If scopely say rhey look at it, that almost always results in no fix whatsoverer. A ‘send it to the team’ is a synonym fir sending it to the trash can.
‘The team’ has never fixed anything

[unkempt linden]

Can't we mine some data or something 🤣

[twilit kiln]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6OnGU66rPkI

[abstract gate]

I'm gonna go Edge one out... Least I get a reward.

[unkempt linden]

@abstract gate According to scopley..tomorrow you have to do it twice to get the same reward

@abstract gate then on Friday 4 times equals 1 reward

[pearl isle]

Their too well paid by scopely

[abstract gate]

Nope 30 day shield and go smell the roses.

[unkempt linden]

@cosmic steeple So the event sucks and solution let's double down and make it twice as hard?

[maiden lantern]

As long as enough spend a ton of money the powers that be won't give a ****

[twin hollow]

Nobody driving the ship

[viral yarrow]

30 shield going up, first time I've skipped an arc since game started

[misty tendon]

@cosmic steeple come on, get this adjusted already. Yesterday should have been the heroic amount (likely less than it was) but 21.6 million is ridiculous even for Dopely’s math.

[unkempt linden]

@cosmic steeple cmon man say something like were listening or we hear you or we don't care

[tranquil briar]

21.6M? My supposed goal yesterday was 28.3M and is over 56M for today. I don't have 4 hrs to spend grinding against 20 other players in system for a couple of hundred hostiles. Also, not my definition of fun and engaging gameplay.

[latent fog]

According to what they answered me this morning, it has nothing to do with mathematics. That everything that is happening is normal. And that all the game companies do it, so.

[jade leaf]

https://tenor.com/view/lol-lolgif-lol-gif-good-one-funny-gif-14060942321184648660

good job Scoply 500 kills today for the 80 g6 rare gas ^^ nice doppel counter kill after 24 hrs ^^

[strong talon]

Hey Scope, a Game is supposed to make fun. 2000+ Kills for a SMS is NOT fun. Thats just insane and rude about the players.

[meager ivy]

The silence is their "we dont care"

[misty tendon]

You are obviously a higher level than I am, but either way both numbers are ridiculous

[unkempt linden]

The loss of rss to gains for this event isn't even worth it let alone the grind🤣

[viral yarrow]

Do the math, 56 mill points at 96 k points per kill 🤮

[uncut idol]

Id like too see Developers play and do the SMS thats going on since Arc started, and play 6-8 hrs just doing the SMS and see how they like it.... and not even completing it 😅

[dreamy robin]

Dear Scopes, ya screwed the pooch with this one, I'm just gonna finish BPs and when you figure it out, imma be sitting on my wallet👈over there.

[unkempt linden]

@cosmic steeple Do we need an executive order for you to talk to us?

[jade leaf]

use a special GIF they deleate them so he do 😉

[unkempt linden]

Can anyone get a summons?🤣

[cosmic ridge]

execute order 66

[rough hawk]

So i have mastered the feesha in the archive, but still not scoring in the event. I have claimed other archive masteries that scopely said would score for this event, still not scoring. I have an open ticket because scopely will not allow me to turn in monaveen currencies that i have earned so i cannot submit a new ticket

[viral yarrow]

Think I'll stay reading here for the night. It's more fun than going into game 😂 <@&509691205798592532>

[surreal root]

#iSkipThisArc 👎

[dreamy robin]

I'd say drop Genesis on Scopely HQ, but that would probably malfunction and just create new zits.

[keen badger]

Wow. Scopely heard our complaints and made some changes to the event. They doubled down! So now you need to hit double the amount of hostiles for the event!
Well forget that, don’t need your officers or mats for this much work, thanks.

Gaming shouldn’t be work

[cloud wraith]

They really messed up this arc, so many things wrong with it.

[hexed gorge]

You must be new here 😆

[cloud wraith]

Scopely is as bad as phone scammers. Just want your money for free, can’t even make a good product.

[topaz cypress]

Stupid Foul Play by Scope. U cannot finish This Event of You have a real Job. Maybe as dev

[latent fog]

🤬 Players:
Scopely are you listening to our complaints?
😱 Scopely's response:
Sorry, guys, we're too busy ignoring your complaints.

[keen badger]

I’m ops 58. I mean I’ve seen some stuff in the 2 years I’ve been playing but this is right up there in taking the mick

[keen badger]

Yes, let us make it twice as hard for you. We’ll teach you to complain

[subtle sequoia]

By not completing yesterdays sms all pressure for finishing 'evolving enemies' is off. Just going back to doing what i want to do.. that officer will come at some point in the future.. event store or something like that..

[keen badger]

Agreed, I didn’t bother with the 300 hostiles needed yesterday. I certainly won’t be bothering with the 600 needed today. What’s the point in working on all the new content if it drives players off?

[undone garnet]

Everyone complained about yesterday SMS grind taking to long, so they responded by doubling it...

[versed stirrup]

Will there be surprise (elite) solo wave events this arc? <@&509691205798592532>

[twin hollow]

And the most stupid thing IS we clomplain for hours and nobody answer

[hollow badge]

Where can I get some of whatever the devs are smoking?

[latent fog]

When they scopely decide to respond OR do something. Surely the event and the arc will have already ended, or will be about to end

[proven flame]

so is any compensation gonna be handed out to people who unlocked D'vor and Feesha colums in IA without getting any points in the SLB?

or is this just a sit and spin from scopley?

[pastel hatch]

For maxed dvor archive, pressing the claim button in archives for d'vor completes the independent archives event for d'vor, strange way to do it, it worked for me, tip provided by player in bug reporting. Guess the same would work for the fees have.

[dreamy patio]

That wsa a fix they introduced for players that finished the archive before the event went live.

Same will apply to the feesha.

[proven flame]

What about the SLB?

[dreamy patio]

They're still looking into what they can do for others that cannot finish the archive but can no longer do the event.

That was also raised.

[proven flame]

they dont match up

[pastel hatch]

That being said, I don't recall seeing the fix posted in game news or official announcement

[abstract gate]

Love how the <@&509691205798592532> comes on to address the Freesha issue but not the arc event that most are mad about

[sage bronze]

<@&509690795536941056> is there any update for people who have claimed the IA pillars for the D'Vor or Feesha before the SMS was released and can NOT complete the whole track to pull the bundle?

[wind fog]

It means they know there’s a problem, they just don’t care

[twin hollow]

@dreamy patio increíble....

[abstract gate]

Really read up just a hair with comments from dude in red

[sage bronze]

Thanks. Just jumped in here and didn't read up.

Still can't hurt to remind them that this issue exists. 😄

[dreamy patio]

The issue with the difficulty of the sms was raised earlier by pauly, when we have info, it will be shared.

[meager ivy]

i didnt get the gear

[dreamy patio]

what gear

[meager ivy]

from the pillars fix

[abstract gate]

Well alot are either writing event off or done... Tell scopely to fix... this is the worst you all have ever done your cash flow

[dreamy patio]

The fix was for those that completed the tracks and can claim the mastery, it was set to complete the sms. It is not a fix for those that only have partial tracks, that is still being looked into

[pastel hatch]

That makes sense, atleast they will be able to convert their raw latinum reserves before they maxed out d'vor archives

[abstract gate]

I did about 2M of the 148M this sms and said nope... after yesterday's all day excursion I refuse

I'm gonna need to hit about 1350 reg Hostiles to complete... No thx. No event should be that hard for reg rewards.

[fiery sable]

Did they double the score required to complete the exile augment sms?!?!

[abstract gate]

Yes

[versed stirrup]

Do they complain harder about the heroic vesion today with double the points?

[fiery sable]

🤣

[abstract gate]

Same rewards and called it Heroic

[versed stirrup]

Anyone seen this yet?

[meager ivy]

they need to rename it "for the whales"

[meager ivy]

we all decided to write this event off

[abstract gate]

Not even a whale event... just a "I have no life event, but live for grinds"

[unborn wraith]

At least it has encouraged discussion about the new content. Even if all of that discussion is how bad it is.

[versed stirrup]

If you punch up a bit you can do it in less than 50 exiles...

[abstract gate]

Scopely: Oh you all didn't like this, wait til you see what we've done next arc! You're really gonna love it. 10x worse

[proven flame]

most players cannot punch up, just FYI, the barrier is insane for hostiles

[rough abyss]

Stop complaining. It was easy

[proven flame]

im at 50% shred with khan and it still takes me a bit of time to kill the total

[abstract gate]

I'm hitting as high as I can and it's still a grind... what do you think I flew to the first system and decided nope?

[unborn wraith]

Try this one.

[abstract gate]

Same one I have... ridiculous

[rough abyss]

You clearly leveled up before you had the ships required

[versed osprey]

or this one

[versed osprey]

you are new here, aren't you?

[versed stirrup]

grab 70 traders in the early hours, -> 33m one

[abstract gate]

What are you Ops 30?

[rough abyss]

I'm not ops 30

[abstract gate]

I found 2 yesterday

[sour lotus]

Probably a forever ops29 playee 😂

[versed osprey]

31

[rough abyss]

Hey I've just came up to 29

[versed osprey]

figured😂

[rough abyss]

We all start somewhere

[versed osprey]

I know, but this stuff scopely is pulling is not new

[rough abyss]

Maybe like I said... You leveled too fast so now you feel the burn

[versed stirrup]

🖖

[abstract gate]

Well you know absolutely nothing then... your event is gravy

[rough abyss]

Because I didn't level too fast

[unborn wraith]

I wish you luck on your journey.

[versed osprey]

wait till you hit G5/G6

[rough abyss]

Thank you. I can already beat level 40 in PvP

[abstract gate]

Neither did i... I'm always top 10 on my Ops in power server wide...lol

[rough abyss]

Power is meaningless without research and officers and ships

[abstract gate]

Okay 🤣 thank you for the insight

[rough abyss]

You're welcome. If you didn't level too fast you can source officers in the events

[unborn wraith]

I am sure these messages can be used in the scopley load menu.

[abstract gate]

Sarcasm evades you

[meager ivy]

steve 🥲

[hollow badge]

Have y’all considered swiping more?

[rough abyss]

I get the sarcasm. But you don't get the trolling?

Here's an idea... If the event is too difficult .. buy a pack

[abstract gate]

I assume most your Ops have zero knowledge so you could be very well serious

[rough abyss]

Level those ships

I have lots of knowledge that's why I am the server champion

[abstract gate]

This guy.... Probably stays in GC

[rough hawk]

Have done so already. Posted this after doing so

[hollow badge]

I have a level 90 krencha event is too easy

[rough abyss]

I avoid GC. That's wardrs spot

If you listened to me and didn't go to ops 40 you wouldn't be crying now wardr

You could if owned the midrange

[abstract gate]

Ops 64 here and Well as we all know the G6 UC ships are junk... It's that middle spot where events like this are difficult... like every Grade this is not the one to be in. 66 should be better but for now this ain't it.

[rough abyss]

Can you make the event more difficult tomorrow please Scopley... I finished it too fast

[dreamy patio]

https://tenor.com/view/shenron-dragon-ball-z-dragon-gif-18075990409620126949

[rough abyss]

😁

[versed stirrup]

the Khanoric version 😂

[hollow badge]

I think they balanced this assuming you went into the arc with all the new research maxed already

Also the meme ship isn’t out yet but it’s balanced for it

[abstract gate]

I just got to 64 so might as well say Ops 63

[hollow badge]

But fear not the booty bay prime is on its way

[rough abyss]

It's your biggest regret using that latinum to speed the build. Right?

[versed stirrup]

Why a prime? They introduced already a 700% loot officer and there's a loot favor.

[proven flame]

can confirm 66 isnt much better, im getting 2-3 level 66 hostiles per HHP

[hollow badge]

Oh I just meant a new augment ship

[abstract gate]

I don't even know why you talk... you really know nothing

[proven flame]

with a t8 kos'karii

[rough abyss]

I completed my event. Did you complete yours?

[abstract gate]

It's easy at Ops 30

[versed stirrup]

it's the new game icon, maybe 😉

[rough abyss]

Look. All milestones completed

[hollow badge]

At lest they didn’t bring out new data mining ….yet

[proven flame]

next arc

[abstract gate]

I can hit 1 hostile and complete that 20x over

[sour seal]

You do realise higher ops can complete your entire sms with just one kill?

[rough abyss]

We don't have 400m power ships at ops 30...

[abstract gate]

This guy is special

[sour seal]

The difficulty of the event increases a lot the higher ops you are

[rough abyss]

That's why you need more points. It isn't easier at ops 29. It's harder

[proven flame]

wanna trade SMS?

[rough abyss]

We take longer to travel across the system to have whales stealing our kill

[sour seal]

There are dozens of hostiles in every system, nobody can “steal your kill”

[abstract gate]

He would have it done... he's the greatest... don't believe him? Ask him

[rough abyss]

Mimimimi so much crying.

[rough abyss]

Give me your ship and I'll do it for you...

[unborn wraith]

If you are finding events that simple then you are being held back in your rewards by ops progression.
Not every ops level is having the same experience of this arc and comparing apples with planets, whilst a good trolling, is not really worthwhile.

[rough abyss]

That's what you want right. Spoon feeding

[proven flame]

yes, spoon feed me daddy

[sour seal]

https://tenor.com/view/spoon-big-spoon-funny-mad-evil-stare-gif-12193290963796785872

[rough abyss]

*another person spending longer complaining about the hard event than it'll take to complete had entered the chat

[unborn wraith]

It’s a heroic event. It’s pay to play. I skipped it. I am F2P.

[abstract gate]

Uhmmmm no... the points to hostile ratio is far off higher ops... do the math not the mèth

[rough abyss]

<@&509690795536941056> can you create two threads here. 1. The event was too easy and 2. The event was too hard. I leveled up too fast.

Everyone can ignore the second thread

[pearl light]

Theres always one 🍆 who tries to wind everyone up

[spring perch]

So they just doubled milestones from yesterday?

[rough abyss]

Yes they did

[unborn wraith]

It’s heroic. Hopefully the sms is not.

[rough abyss]

Finally some real content

[slim steppe]

It was to easy yesterday 😆
To much quality over quantity 😅

[warm sorrel]

out of curiosity, what level of the new hostiles do you think a 46 should be hitting?

[pearl light]

If you cant be helpful S T ... U

[sour seal]

Dude thinks stunting his own ops and game progression so that he can easily conplete two events that are available at his level makes him a good and smart player

[rough abyss]

Ok. Let's make this simple: if the event is too hard... Just don't try.

[unborn wraith]

Correct.

[rough abyss]

Nobody is forcing you to try. It isn't the battle pass

They gave an easy BP event

[warm sorrel]

it is a free rare officer unlock, so this is a bad argument

[pearl light]

Hes a wiseazz who will get nowhere in the game

[rough abyss]

I killed seven 36 eclipse and I'm done

[lost elm]

Could you come kill 20 66 for me?

[abstract gate]

You killed the wrong hostiles then...lol

[rough abyss]

Pssst rare means not everyone will have it

[lost elm]

My guy, they only add rare and epic nowadays

[warm sorrel]

if you are low enough ops that this was your BP event then you have no clue what you are talking about

[warm sorrel]

that is not at all what rare means

[rough abyss]

My battle pass is different to yours. But it's also easy. You need to kill two jem adar

[meager ivy]

I had to kill three Jemhadar actually

[abstract gate]

Not even close... but nice insight

[meager ivy]

do you have any idea how long that took me!

[viral yarrow]

You wouldn't be able to kill the lowest new hostile, if your sms event was to kill eclipse 😂

[rough abyss]

If you can't compete a hostile hunt BP event in two kills your ships stink

[spring perch]

Did the rewards become heroic too?

[unborn wraith]

https://tenor.com/view/no-the-office-michael-scott-scream-gif-16929305

[rough abyss]

My SMS was exiles. My BP was eclipse

[viral yarrow]

Child's play then for you, stay in game kindergarten 😂

[rough abyss]

Ok. Will I'm going to kill a few grinders in exile space. Just to make the event easier for them

[abstract gate]

If you can warp that far

[rough abyss]

The maxed sally with mirror Picard Vs a level 40's enterprise

😁 I can get that far, don't worry

[sour seal]

This shows you aren’t really familiar with how things work. It has nothing to do with ships, but ops level. You can max ops for your server and you’ll still need to kill dozens of ships for hostile hunt event. Precisely because you are max level. Having the biggest ship available for your ops plays no role. My server is currently capped at ops 60. An ops 60 player with best ship for ops 60 still has to kill dozens because they can’t punch up, higher level hostiles are not available yet. You are too small to understand tht

[rough abyss]

Better ships mean higher kills

[abstract gate]

I remember my first beer

[viral yarrow]

My server is capped at ops 70 and even they struggle

[sour seal]

You still dont understand. There are no higher kills

[rough abyss]

They clearly need more research

[rough abyss]

Then they made a really big mistake

[sour seal]

if the server hasn’t ascended above ops 60, hostiles above lvl 60 simply aren’t available

[viral yarrow]

No it doesn't, which proves you don't know much about the game

[abstract gate]

My research is 90% done... aside from new away team research all I have is Ops 64 combat research and some trickle for ships... you know absolutely zero about the game...

[unborn wraith]

You do all realise it is a trolling. They have been playing for 4 years.

[idle stump]

https://tenor.com/view/toll-hotdogs-do-not-feed-the-troll-gif-17541719

[rough abyss]

Ok. So the people with the highest level on your server are upset at having to grind.... Take me back to level 20... Where I needed 3000 kills for a bit of parsteel

[meager ivy]

You are actually talking sense there

[viral yarrow]

Our server had a player like that stayed ops 21 for 4 years

[rough abyss]

I should of remained ops 26

But then I can't kill all you weak G4 players

[abstract gate]

We have a few on our server like that... all mouth and no knowledge

[unborn wraith]

We all should have remained ops 14.

[sour seal]

That wasn’t my point. My point was that you are wrong and I explained why. Whether someone is upset about it or not is a different topic.

[proven flame]

its fun seeing the level 70's on our server sitting in the 62/64 systems killing hostiles

[rough abyss]

But then I can't send my horizon to dock on your station

[unborn wraith]

That’s why I picked that ops level.

[abstract gate]

Get a Amalgam you swine

[rough abyss]

They need bigger ships. Always upgrade your ships before ops. It'll make your events easier. It's a marathon not a race.

[proven flame]

k, good talk bro

[rough abyss]

I have my tokens ready to claim. 8 weeks after I get to ops 30. But you don't know that the shop can't be got yet... Clearly you need teaching

[proven flame]

go back to leveling your mayflower

[tropic totem]

I’ve given up and withdrawn from these new events. First, they took away the time I had to do it on day one with bugs. On the second day, today, it turns out I need to kill over 800 of them. Intense pew pew. Dodging a hunter. 😄 this is the greatest failure, and by Kahless 😄, there have been plenty 😄

[rough abyss]

I don't have a mayflower. I have a maxed sally and centurion

[proven flame]

egads!

[sour seal]

What if you already have the biggest ship

[abstract gate]

It's been 2 years since I was your size... I learned how to play since

[rough abyss]

I'm working on my vidar too. Just 230000 more charged nano probs to go

I have my res for my valkis and my Antares ready too

just to put it into perspective, even level 70's cant finish the SMS in 2 kills

with the best ships in the world

[abstract gate]

His math is off a bit...

[sour seal]

a bit

[proven flame]

its copely math!

[meager ivy]

< seems like a decent power for level 29....

[rough abyss]

You can't crack me...

[proven flame]

19m, whoooo, man, hes the best level 29 ever

You're right.. we can't punch down that low

[rough abyss]

Thanks. I'll put it next to my trophies

I have to say. The event was so easy today, I can give you all pointers if you need them

[sour seal]

Sounds like one of those dudes who talks a lot of smack in gc so he has to stunt his own progression just so that the higher ops can’t hit him 😆

[proven flame]

all talk, no game

[rough abyss]

It's ok. The higher levels try to hit me and they die

[honest lotus]

so, completing any of the D'Vor pillars before the new drop yesterday should have been retroactively counted, right? Or is it just counting the completed archive? @cosmic steeple Because mine haven't filled in for the pillars, since the task says Pillar.

[sour seal]

Yeah it only counts completed archive

[sour seal]

I can kill ships tens of millions of power stronger than mine if they have bad crew like that and Im using pvp crew. Others higher than me can punch up hundreds of millions in power in same circumstances. You think yours is impressive?

[abstract gate]

This guy...smdh

[rough abyss]

It wasn't always like this

[rough abyss]

That's why the grind is worth it. Finally somebody understands

[sour seal]

Everybody understands. You seem to be the one not getting it

[abstract gate]

Comparing crews that small power doesn't matter just like this doesn't matter... it's a small brag but come on man.

[rough abyss]

It's rare crews. It's meant to be a grind. Otherwise let's make them common and put them in the gift boxes

[meager ivy]

Yes please steve...

Spoon feed us... Thats what we are asking for... now go back to killing your swarms

[abstract gate]

What are those? Lol

[proven flame]

idk anything about officers

[sour seal]

probably some events that you can complete with 2 kills and close the game for the day.

[proven flame]

can you help me learn?

[rough abyss]

It's ok. You don't need to know...

[proven flame]

what officers do i need?

[abstract gate]

You should make a YouTube channel... seems like most of your knowledge comes from Rev

[meager ivy]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ENJoQcKagdU&pp=0gcJCdgAo7VqN5tD

[rough abyss]

Who's that?

[abstract gate]

Well he gives the worst advice to Newbs... so you'd fit right in

[rough abyss]

Mining officers for mining. PvP officers for PvP. Armada for armada ....

Finally

[proven flame]

what officers do you have?

TEACH ME

[abstract gate]

PmC for everything... Make PMC Great Again!

[rough abyss]

PMC for energy PMT for kinetic

[sour seal]

my whole life is a lie. All this time I thought mining officers were for pvp

[rough abyss]

Wait. They are for some

Brb

[proven flame]

well crap

[abstract gate]

https://tenor.com/view/the-more-you-know-gif-10358303

[proven flame]

my whole life is a lie

i guess i need more officers

[abstract gate]

Just a few

[proven flame]

the important ones at least

[lost elm]

You got it backwards, pvp officers are for mining

[proven flame]

i thought it was PMC for mining?

[meager ivy]

what ops are you at?

[abstract gate]

I'm slacking

[proven flame]

i am =/

[proven flame]

according to the king, i leveled too fast

[abstract gate]

We both did

[lost elm]

Nah PMC is for pvp

[meager ivy]

Nah, HG Worf Marcus and Carol if youre on my server at night

[sour seal]

Yeah, the goal is to level down. Not up

I wish I could go back to 60 and stay there...lol

Then instead of leveling up I can tell people they need more research

[sour seal]

And they need better ships

[abstract gate]

What's under that Mask?

[proven flame]

No one cared who I was until I put the mask on

[meager ivy]

seems quite a low officer score

[lost elm]

A slightly smaller mask

[proven flame]

i mean, sure its low?

[abstract gate]

I'm less than 3 years in so I equate limited time to my officer value. I missed alot

[abstract gate]

I'm 83/99 of that building though... so I'm catching up to you...lol

[rough abyss]

Bet yours is smaller. Stop trolling him

[abstract gate]

Creeper has 20/99

[rough abyss]

What's your level... Bet mines higher

[abstract gate]

I just said if you'd read

[meager ivy]

so you're 83 at ops what? 59?

[abstract gate]

He said Ops 29...lol

You done knocked him down 10 whole ops... what is it like 1 day to Ops up from that low of a lvl?

[meager ivy]

whats your ops

[abstract gate]

64

[meager ivy]

dang. now i feel i can brag that im already past 56 😄

[abstract gate]

Again did you read?

[meager ivy]

just got to ops 46 and my crew rate 😄

[abstract gate]

How long you been playing?

I'm 3 years this coming July

[meager ivy]

well we need to work this out on a percentage... ops 46 is like a third less of yours...

[meager ivy]

actively, whilst i was a rogue, since the game launched? i took a break

[abstract gate]

Since game launch my point exactly.

[meager ivy]

but all the new officers came in the last two years whilst i was on my break 😉

[abstract gate]

Okay

[meager ivy]

and the first two years of the game was a REALLLLL GRIND

Everyone here will tell you that

we only had like onedaily event for res

[abstract gate]

It's regardless, I don't have the time in to justify that high of a scoring... And The 2 years you took a break have soooooo much sourcing options now that the ones on release are not easily attainable

[meager ivy]

😄

you back yet steve?

[abstract gate]

Take Ensign Picard for instance... not that I want him but the sourcing isn't there amongst many others... and I'm not gonna buy them either on limited sales cause they are worthless to today's standards.

[meager ivy]

... $

[abstract gate]

Yep as I said not gonna buy worthless crew

[proven flame]

loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool

glad i didnt touch that feature

[abstract gate]

I did...lol

But difference is all my buildings were sigma req. Anyways...

[abstract gate]

You don't seriously have any buildings requiring G5 upgrades anyways do you? Besides new additions?

[proven flame]

i have one dil refinery that i have been slowly working on for the daily upgrades

[undone dew]

Probably didn’t do a lot of the generators lol those get forgotten

[abstract gate]

Oh I don't forget... cause I don't upgrade til after no or limited research and buildings... always need to do something to keep that timer going especially in G6

[proven flame]

with 67 being an "everything" ops level, i will be sitting here for a while building up RSS to get there, so yes, lots of missing buildings will be capped out

[abstract gate]

I hate/love those... mixed feelings on those Ops... but it does force you to get your 💩 together...lol

[proven flame]

Yeah, working on defense platform F is a real joy

[abstract gate]

Sense sarcasm...lol

[snow crater]

Glad to see that the <@&509690795536941056> are acknowledging all these people saying the same things that the EE hostile event milestones were too high yesterday meaning they're far too high today being they they have been doubled.

I'm glad that players are being heard and P1ATAs shouldn't be needing special sigma speed ups just because the player is in G6 and the the P1ATA requirements are so high they're hard to complete.

I'm also glad that scopely has properly addressed all the missing currency in game from when items across the game and not just within the updated Augment store due to the "Payment failed" messages which resulted in the payment been taking but the goods not provided.

I still can't start the missions for example.

I'm also glad sarcasm is a thing still because none of the above has happened

[meager ivy]

lets be honest... between each Grade thestation should need to bemaxed

[meager ivy]

not everyone is saying it was too hard though...

[proven flame]

clearly we found our champion

[meager ivy]

Looks like this rare officer is going to be even rarer than scopely thought

[meager ivy]

oh, i didnt do yesterday or today 😛

[cosmic steeple]

Following up on this.

[snow crater]

There have been a tonne of complaints about the milestones. I've been seeing them all day...you're reply is merely trying to be inflammatory.

No one asked for them to be increased

[meager ivy]

but read the chat...

[rough abyss]

I asked for more stuff to do. Actually will make it harder tomorrow again

[proven flame]

im just curious what there is to follow up on, since almost none of this event is player friendly and is scopely money friendly

[snow crater]

My target is considerably higher than yours

[lost elm]

Can we vote CreeperSkull off the island?

[rough abyss]

If you can't complete try levelling up your ships. There are special officers in the store which will also help.

[proven flame]

we need to vote him king, he is the best STFC player in the world

[rough abyss]

You're ship is considerably more powerful than mine too

[rough abyss]

No voting was necessary. The was a PvP event where I find first place gives me the rank of server champion

[proven flame]

try this again, since you clearly missed it earlier. even level 70 ops cant complete this in "2 kills" with the "best ships in the game"

[rough abyss]

That's why scopes awarded me the special avatar

See. You're almost done. Keep going

[proven flame]

You're missing the point.

[snow crater]

It's not a flat curve increase dude. My target is exponentially higher than yours. My repair costs are considerably higher than yours and you're clearly just here to wind people up rather than allow people to be heard and for scopely to hopefully listen to their people and act for once.

[rough abyss]

I said the BP event is a two kill win

It gives you longer to play the exile event

You're prizes are higher too

[proven flame]

my time is finite. i cannot spend 30 hours a day playing STFC

[rough abyss]

<@&509690795536941056> please listen to your players and make tomorrow event harder

[lost elm]

Also even at ops 63, the bp event is somewhere around 30 kills on max level Jemhedar or Freebooties

[rough abyss]

You have more than one drydock I assume 😁

[green current]

never mind giving people points back for completing the archive tree, what about the archives they spent to get them as well?

[proven flame]

"looking into it" is what the mods said earlier

[snow crater]

Your tiny ops level makes your opinions irrelevant to the majority of the player base that have legitimate reason to be unhappy with the events. If you want your events to be harder then ops up. When you reach G6 come back to me with the you want more attitude.

[rough abyss]

But you only need to kill seven free boots to do your dailies. I had to kill 50 swarms, 25 Klingons of 38. And then all the eclipse. Then the exiles. Stop crying ....

[snow crater]

And for the very first time on discord...ignore was pressed

[sage bronze]

Don't feed the trolls.

[spice brook]

You don’t know what you’re talking about.

[proven flame]

hes ops 29, ignore anything he says

[lost elm]

You don't know? G6 has to go kill the faction ships also lol

Ain't sunshine and rainbows up here

[rough abyss]

How many... 😁

[left kraken]

They listened so well, they doubled it. Typical!

[lost elm]

Up to 50 if hitting same ops level hostiles

[rough abyss]

I wished for harder goals. My wish was granted. Wait until you are trying tomorrow epic event

Looks like I'm going to get a new officer that ops 70 needs to pay for

[snow crater]

Knew he would be an absolutely tiny ops. I'll unblock him in a couple of years and see how much he's crying about us all being right.

[snow crater]

Indeed...thought I'd give sarcasm a try this time 🤪

[rough abyss]

You didn't block me. You can't miss the messages.

How else will you be able to follow the chat

For real. If you leveled up. You are fools. Always do what scope says and suffer. Be a turtle. Enjoy the journey

[fierce coral]

did they change the loot from the survey ships? i just killed a lvl 50 survey, im ops 50 and im sure that it was less loot before

[maiden lantern]

Need to grind more to succeed is probably their goal. They hope you'll get frustrated and just pay to move forward.

[rough abyss]

It not level before you're ready

[lapis sapphire]

Then yesterday would be a good level, cuz ppl are not going to put up with doing that every day. Todays values just makes ppl quit outright

[rough abyss]

All I'm going to say is. I'm glad I'm not in the same server as any of you cry babies. We have enough on 135 already

Tomorrow is double today

[rough abyss]

Last time I said this they merged 135 and 152 to bring them all to me

[snow crater]

It's definitely their goal, but they're being far too aggressive with it and it's making everyone angry. yesterday was bad, today is a joke.

[rough abyss]

But luckily everyone forgot about my taunting during the incursion

[rough abyss]

Nobody is angry except for the cry babies who need a 🥄

Can someone tag his post with a spoon for me 🥄

Thanks

[obtuse sundial]

That looks similar to what i got yesterday. Killed 3 of them. I didnt screenshot the actual loot drop but this how much I have in my inventory. Im ops 50 as well.

[lost elm]

Where's Candle to smack down these insults when you need them

[rough abyss]

Picard is commanding the sally at the moment. Where shall I send him to put you out of your misery

[fierce coral]

maybe is not always the same, i thought it was, thanks

[rough abyss]

Elites always drop random stuff

[fierce coral]

i was looking at the chart that's on rev's discord and it says its always the same, so i got confused

[rough abyss]

At least this person isn't crying that it's too hard b she's happy the loot is so much too

[rough abyss]

He doesn't know jack. He just waffles on for an hour

[fierce coral]

i'll say is more than usual and i get that not everyone has the time to grind but it's doable

[rough abyss]

We are getting double again tomorrow

The plan is that only one person will complete say 20... That's me

Right. Time to help people have warp core breaches in exile space

I have chests to unlock

[lapis sapphire]

Doable yes, sane? maybe not. How many hours of the day are you supposed to spend on a SMS? And each ops will have different goals and some will be easy and others will be nearly impossible since scopley hasnt tested it out properly when balancing

[fierce coral]

i totally agree, im only half way through

but theres nothing i can do so i have to grind

[green current]

you should not need to hit 191 hostiles to do an sms, and do about 10 visits to do so

[glossy fog]

lol that was my requirement yesterday - today it is/ would be double that - so nah - pass

[supple galleon]

I do not like the new augment space ! Coming out with content after content is keeping me from growing and stop working on the previous 10 contents

[green current]

currently doing 60s for that, with a 6.5bn minerva

[fierce coral]

i really like the faction but the grinding is awful

4 diferent loops for the same thing? no thanks

[glossy fog]

that is what i did yesterday with a 5.5b one

[glossy fog]

but but but - they gave us feesha AND dvor archive so time neutral surely 🤣

[green current]

oh yes, now i don't use the ships i didn't use some more.

[snow crater]

I don't feel like using any of my ships at all right now due to this arc

[green current]

sadly a lot feel this way and are leaving the game

think we lost a few off our server over last few days

[sour seal]

815 here 🫠

[abstract gate]

I'm considering quitting myself... wish the game got back to the way it used to be...

[sour seal]

Seriously, scopely is turning this game into a job for us. Where’s the fun if we spend most of our time finishing tasks and events? Do we ever get time to do stuff for fun and not because we have to?

[hollow badge]

But it was always bad?

[abstract gate]

Longest event for SMS is and has always been Faction events.... they went from 30 mins to most of your day... BS

[hollow badge]

The reduced it that one time years ago when it was really awful

It’s not even worth doing these days for as little as you get

[native cave]

https://tenor.com/view/whatever-shrug-idk-i-dont-know-obama-gif-15684252

[abstract gate]

Well at what cost? They reduce 2 days from now and everyone on strike still misses overall rewards

[hollow badge]

It’s cyclical they do this every couple arcs people lose their mind and scopely sprinkles a new level cap and everyone come back and spends

[raven nimbus]

<@&509690795536941056> Are you having a joke? Augment Exile Engagement. 24hrs to do. I need to get 56m pts. With a 1.8b rotty, I can kill 20-30 lvl 52 augment.. so to complete I need to kill over 500. Really?

[abstract gate]

Welcome to the club... happy to have you join us...lol

[snow crater]

Can someone tell Kevin Bacon to come take his EE hostiles away please 🥺

[meager ivy]

thats what latinum is for... its doable

[agile silo]

I smell the USS Reliant coming in the next dump, I mean arc

[raven nimbus]

you can buy points?

[meager ivy]

no you speed up repairs...

then use your disco to summon

😉

you can thank me later for this little lesson

[raven nimbus]

yeah becuase I want to waste 3 hours of my life pointlessly grinding

[tardy fossil]

You only need 1400 points for the meta... So as long as they don't drop more than 5 heroic events in the 20 day run, you can still complete the meta while ignoring the heroic

[sour seal]

need 2300 for the overflow, tho

[tardy fossil]

The meta is the one w\the beat rewards

The overflow, for the 2300, just gives you 7 officer shards. Meh

[sour seal]

well, 10 in total

But that officer only needs 50 shards for unlock so it’s not too bad

[lost elm]

Rename it to Exile Excrement

[gilded charm]

4m for a 2 pull is a lil expensive is it not?

[meager ivy]

thats for true heros

[graceful hull]

Oh wow, twice as much grinding than yesterday. I'm pretty sure nobody wants this

[pearl isle]

<@&509690795536941056>s have become monks clearly and have taken val of silence as no word last 6hrs

[pearl isle]

Or retreiving… if scopely offered them the tools

[pseudo spear]

Kill augment sms sucks. I have to grind about 175 to complete. Thats like 8 hulls on 15b cube and I have fc khan

[meager ivy]

.

Ham listened 🙂

[winter burrow]

Same here, he would help in PvP but not for the current arc 🙈

[trail igloo]

@cosmic steeple ok so I can punch up to 52s but only kill 7 per hull no matter the crew in a 650 million Quvsumpek. This is the issue, means to farm more I have to drop to the 50s. 502 kills needed to complete is absurd by any metric.

[proven flame]

it aint pretty in g6 either my friend

[trail igloo]

Worse actually according to my friend's. They need to grind their systems but then drop down and crowd the 40 and 50 for the chest pulls.

[silent timber]

Now I’m unable to select my event rewards? Restarted the game three times.

[leaden halo]

I have deleted the game, cleared loc,reset a dozen times and still cannot get past winnings green button on events tab. iPad/iphone….no matter. And if this is ever fixed, faced with grind event which will require 200+ hostile kills on 12+ ship hulls. . I’m out.

[meager ivy]

use pc version

[silent timber]

iOS

[meager ivy]

read the news... theres a bug. they are waiting for the update

download on mac or pc

#🛠-known-issues

[fierce beacon]

They justify it by renaming the event as “Heroic”, neglecting the fact that is supposed to count toward the completion of a non-heroic meta event.

[meager ivy]

these events are not part of the battle pass , just forget them

[silent timber]

There is always a bug. 😂

[fierce beacon]

This is how they define “Quality of Life” improvements.

[mellow cairn]

is this a bug or is there a trick to get past this point?

[dreamy patio]

not a bug, but it is being looked at given how much rep is needed to unlock the champion missions for it

[tardy fossil]

The apple store is taking along time to approve their fix in the apple store

[velvet acorn]

Probably laughing at it..
" who still uses BBC Basic, oh wait it's them Scopely guys "

[versed crag]

Ex-Borg was suppose to help save us from some of the daily grind but, the only thing that has been happening is more grind being added every arc which is making it difficult to play the game. I thought is arc would be nice and something that I could enjoy but when you need to stay in one system grinding the same enemy all day and night and can not complete a mission because of it what are we to do.

[sturdy shell]

I’m not scoring in the XinDeep event right now. I was told it worked for others earlier. I restarted app and also cleared localization.

[trim belfry]

Why do I have an event to get points for IA with Feesha at ops33, but not one for D'Vor?

Get 6000 Champion Trophy and get it from the Augment store. You get them from the Exile hostiles.

[cold horizon]

Do this twice?

[normal osprey]

What ops are you?

[manic schooner]

So, for the new aways mission, which crews that actually have "Disciplined" or "Passionate" trait? None of the available crew has the potential. Are those traits apply for the new WOK crews?

[trail igloo]

So all the know nothing Content creators are telling ppl run loot crews on the new hostiles. Yeah that's ok for punching down and grabbing the chests, but what about the loss of pts for the SMS grind from hell? Here is a crew that allows you to punch up a bit more and survive longer that is working for me and my alliance mates I shared it with. (Provided you have the officers) So I'm ops 58 running a Quvsumpek here is my crew: Janeway as Capt with Gerogiou/Nero and Tal on the bridge. BDOs are Quasi (apex shred), Pella ( iso def), Pic Hugh (restore hull) Kim for morale boost. You can swap Bdo Kim for ship appropriate officer to get your Nova Bonuses. Let me know how it works for you.

[manic hemlock]

seemed pretty reasonable yesterday. what happened since then?

#🏆-event-chat message

[trail igloo]

It doubled? 🤔

[manic hemlock]

so now its ok to rely on others. ok.

#🏆-event-chat message

[trail igloo]

@manic hemlock how so that's my crew troll. Block.

[manic hemlock]

Git gud scrub

[trail igloo]

Haters gonna hate. 🤣

[summer ember]

Yes recommend Tal, everyone totally has him

[hardy totem]

Tal/Georgiou takes 17 rounds for a kill with Pike in the middle. That seems quite a long time for these Augments.

[normal osprey]

So you recommend a "punch up" crew that you're using to hit hostiles 6 levels lower than your ops and 4 levels lower than the ops for your ship....🤔

[trail igloo]

Apparently cannot read. "Provided you have the officers". 🤦‍♂️

[trail igloo]

I'm killing over 60 per hull. But do you

[trail igloo]

Janeway I don't use Pike. Where did you read Pike?

[hardy totem]

I'm just wondering about the Tal damage, seems like you're doing more than 5% a round in damage already?

So wondering what the Tal is adding.

[trail igloo]

I cannot answer you on that. Im not a numbers or graphs guy, I'm just sharing what's working for me.

And scopley maths don't math anyways. 😁

[hardy totem]

How many rounds do the fights last?

[trail igloo]

11 on avg.

[hardy totem]

What tier is your Tal?

[trail igloo]

1

Like most cause he got shelved and I don't buy slot of Scopley things

I've ran 15 different crews and this works best for me. 🤷‍♂️

[hardy totem]

You're only doing 50% odd of the damage with Tal them, he's not the deciding factor.

[trail igloo]

Im thinking, hey freebooters on steroids

Didn't say he was someone else did.

[hardy totem]

Ah.

Sorry, missed that bit.

[trail igloo]

All good. Lots of trolls around.

Tried swapping Tal for other officers and difference was negligible imo

[normal osprey]

They're also punching down to hostiles they should be able to mass farm with a loot crew.
At ops 58 they should be hitting 56+, not relying on Tal to hit lvl52s.

[hardy totem]

Ah, I'm only OPs 42.

I can kill about 9/10 42s a hull, which is not great.

But mostly that system is full of 50+.

[normal osprey]

Yeah the way the loot tables for the hostiles are set up means all the bigger player have to drop down to the lvl40 system to farm common loot. Which isn't helpful for the G4 players trying to do events in that system

[hardy totem]

40 isn't too bad for me. I'm mostly using E-Pic, Garret/Annorax, with Hugh/Vael/Paris/Troi lower decks.

But 42 is a bit harder.

[normal osprey]

Since you have Ano, try using Pike/Moreau/Ano. Or Janeway/Doc/Ano if you have.

[hardy totem]

I don't have a problem with the SMS, just the loot.

But a lot of people on my server are giving up.

[normal osprey]

For common loot you'll get the most from hitting the lvl40 hostiles (you'll just have to fight for those hostiles with everyone else on your server)

[hardy totem]

Yeah, mixing it up on the 42s and the 40s.

Got 10M/110K.

[normal osprey]

Farming the UC loot will suck until you can efficiently farm the lvl50 hostiles.

[hardy totem]

Definitely going for the Carol Marcus recruit hard this Saturday.

[obtuse sundial]

the nice thing about everyone giving up is that i can hit the survey every 30 mins or so.

[hardy totem]

I had a weird thing earlier, was in the 42 system, freighter spawned.

Took me three goes before it didn't kill me, system was busy, but no one else tried it.

[native cave]

https://tenor.com/view/cant-deal-with-it-crazy-gif-24097267

[spiral zodiac]

So I am finding it amusing that in scopely normality the mission for level 25s involved collecting material from the Hijacked ships.. which lets face it a lvl 25 is Not killing even the lowest; and yet the higher level missions, which is set before the lvl 25 one I might add, is entirely mission enemies and kills based on level, which could easily have been tailored to the right level LOL

how many points do ops 60 people need to finish the EE augment exile engagement heroic?

[drifting spoke]

this grind isn't worth the effort

[marble olive]

I'm guessing the 80M range. I'm 62 and mine is almost 92M.

I'm not even bothering with those. I'm not hitting 300-500 hostiles.

[drifting spoke]

the events are designed so badly along with the mission goal, its unreachable

[brave scarab]

It's almost like a signature on who designed this arc.

[marble olive]

Actually, let me correct myself. Since I have to hit level 50s, it's 1316 hostiles to complete the heroic. I can get 25ish per run so about 55 runs.

[brave scarab]

It took me a little under three hours today to do it and my total was only 34.95 million.

[loud herald]

Whomever designed the EE Augment Exile SMS clearly has far too much time on their hands... it's repetitive and extremely boring for little rewards

Day 2 is double the grind of Day 1, and Day 1's grind was already a stretch

[pseudo warren]

its a heroic 😛

[loud herald]

Don't tell me Day 3 is going to be quadruple Day 1...

If it is, I'll bring the pitchforks, someone bring the torches, and we'll assemble an angry mob to protest

[brave scarab]

According to the event channel, tomorrow is back to yesterday's numbers.

But today's event happens four more times this month.

[pseudo warren]

yay :/

[brave scarab]

We wait so long for Wrath of Khan and this is what we get. It's almost demoralizing.

[normal osprey]

What level hostiles are you hitting?

[narrow quail]

Just when you think they couldn’t make the game worse…they roll out this hot garbage…seriously having to hit 5-6 hulls worth of reds is a pathetic update

[mighty condor]

I dont understand what could possibly take so long to be able to communicate back with everyone. Ham says he will chase up on it and then nothing for 24 hours.
"Hey, is the event supposed to have a mission that requires players to grind 2 whole ranks of Augment reputaion in order to unlock Khan's Champion: Level 1?"
Reply: "yes/no"

[obtuse sundial]

its obviously a mistake but he can't tell us when they will fix it.

[marble olive]

50s so I need 1316 hostiles.

[normal osprey]

Why are you hitting lvl50 hostiles at ops 62? No wonder it's going to take you forever.

[mighty condor]

They could change the DTI store instantly and cant change the requirement for a mission

[naive meteor]

It's why I said that wave's should not be available to player's till L40/42 at the latest,
And lower level player's should have been given an alternative event schedule

[normal osprey]

Might seem like they changed it instantly, but they actually knew it was broken from launch, it just took them 4 months to work out how to "fix" it🤣🤣🤣🤣

[marble olive]

I skipped the epic 5g and headed to ops 63 for the 6g uncommon. My main ship is a little undersized for my level but I'm F2P.

[normal osprey]

You have a G5 rare?

[marble olive]

Yes, Newton

[normal osprey]

A decent sized G5 rare should be able to handle lvl56/58 hostiles.

That's a G4 rare

[spiral zodiac]

At least with the e
Waves mission (unless we mean the solo?) You could be carried,can't do that here tho

[marble olive]

Sorry, brain fart. Crozier..

[normal osprey]

Oh crozier....sorry for your loss.

[naive meteor]

I only do standard L40 wave's Solo 5x per reset, for the Arc rewards one level at a time

[normal osprey]

I would 100% recommend getting at least 1 of the G5 Epics. Easiest to work with will be the Ent-D.

Skipping the G5 epics is really not something people should be doing. They're really good ships and will hold you well into G6.

[pseudo warren]

g3 and g5 epics shouldnt be skipped kinda 🤔 argument could be made for g3 epics tho since voy is same level unlock as g3 epics

[marble olive]

Too much of a material sink. I'll be 63 within a couple of weeks and the Akira is 1.5B out of the box tier 1. I'd have to be about tier 7-8 on the Ent D to get that. It would take a lot longer to get the material.

[mighty condor]

guessing you have skipped a heck of alot of research then

[marble olive]

Not a ton. I'm pretty equal power wise for my level and only playing with 6 docks.

[normal osprey]

Your G5 mats should be flowing in. You can do the Jelly loop for parts. With the current economy G5 epics are very easy to upgrade.

[mighty condor]

im ops 53 and thats my out of the box G5 epics, by the time im 60 they should be over 1b power

[pseudo warren]

you shouldnt have bought the epic bps at 53

you'll get a lot more as you level up just from chests and stuff so thats a waste of credits

[mighty condor]

well im not buying G5 rares 😂

[marble olive]

And how much money do you spend?

[pseudo warren]

i keep the creds until the day im gonna build it so yea 🤣

[mighty condor]

i get so many credits from farming 60's in MU

[pseudo warren]

5 billion dollars

[mighty condor]

using anorax

[normal osprey]

Also unless you plan on taking the Akira to T9, a G5 epic is better in every way possible, other than warp range. And taking a G6U to T9 isn't exactly cheap.

[pseudo warren]

of course he has annorax 🤣

[desert timber]

5 to 6 hulls would be amazing. I'm sitting at ops 52 best shup is pilum at like 120 mil power and I'm maxed hitting lvl 42's and can kill 9 or 10 before I'm killed. If I farm at lvl 40 I need to kill 1316 hostiles to finish the heroic. That's insane.

[mighty condor]

🤔 nothing? just farming

[normal osprey]

Sames. Try and get as many free bps as possible lol.

[mighty condor]

anorax come out when i was ops 50 so since scopley had brackets it was easy to obtain him like every other officer

[marble olive]

You've got more time than me. I'm not putting hours into this game every day. I've played about 5 1/2 years and I may be about done anyway with the way Scopley is running the game into the ground.

[mighty condor]

now as a G5 player im screwed for winning any new officers

or anything ever again

[normal osprey]

Nah. I'm G5 I don't spend crazy money, basically just bps and the new ships when they come out. I've managed to hold my own on mat spend slbs. Get so many mats nowadays, have more problems spending them than actually getting them.

[real tusk]

You'll love G6 it's even worse!

[marble olive]

Actually I'm finding the G6 economy is better than G5, other than the speedups.

[pseudo warren]

yea it really sucks for low g5 players

[mighty condor]

G5 players are already in the brackets with G6 players all these new officers are coming out in these events and all i see if ops 70 at the top of the tables

[pseudo warren]

im in the same bracket as 70s for the fc spend event thing

[hushed agate]

The EE event was bad yesterday and even worst today. There is no way im putting this much time into one event. I'm glad I haven't bought the battlepass yet. Its horrid they have the overflow and we have to do this event 3 more times.

[normal osprey]

Are you on one of those horrible "baby" servers where the mat spend is ops 51-70

[mighty condor]

must be as its 51-70 for alot of things

is it different for others?

[pseudo warren]

what server r u

[mighty condor]

140

[normal osprey]

My slb is like like 53-60

Might be 51-60

[pseudo warren]

my slbs are mostly 51-61

[real tusk]

Ours is 61-70 with only the top 15 receiving rewards from the officer mats events 😅

[pseudo warren]

51-60/61

[stable crow]

having separate brackets isn't great either.
we have over 100 G6 players, and SLB's for the G6 bracket are top 15 instead of top 50.

[pseudo warren]

just gotta whale harder then 🤣

[pseudo warren]

oh yea that one 51-70 for me

[normal osprey]

Yeah they need to have more segments in the brackets. In both G5 and G6. Way too many people competing for too few reward placements.

[pseudo warren]

and also the rewards at 25 is negligible

[brave scarab]

Amen to that.

[pseudo warren]

i thnk it was 10-25 or something? the shards u get from mat spend is 5? iirc

all i rmb is that its negligible

[normal osprey]

That's not a mat spend for an officer though. And that's 1 of those events where an ops 51 can buy the exact same things as an ops 70 and get the same scores.

[mighty condor]

i know but there is no mat spend on 😛

[pseudo warren]

actually if you hog everything i think u can get the same or lower score as those that bought khan

[normal osprey]

In a really bad way the 1 thing that's "funny" about these grind events, specifically in G5/G6, it very obviously shows who's push ops beyond thier ships capabilities.
