@wanton cloud that doesn’t necessarily mean anything, could have meant both cadet and uncommon. Would actually have been better that way

I’d rather spend 4 days trying and failing to lick my elbow than participate and not be able to participate in these... can you even call them ‘events’

sure it does, if it gave credit for the cadets, it would say so

300 a day down to 14 is a bit of a huge Nerf lol
carmine lily
It’s scopely, it wouldn’t necessarily say anything one way or another
Considering 30s only needed 37.5 for the other one and 27s needed 100, I’ll take only needing 11 for this one.

Started at 12:28. Finished at 12:35. Back to mining
severe bridge
@carmine lily probably should verify that u are earning points before wasting a ‘ton of points’ we are all aware there are 2 Scottys and it didn’t say cadet
I feel like all of these bad events are just tests to see if people are still willing to spend to win.
crisp jasper
So, we can just get 1 passkey a day?
And from that, even with 3 days, we're unlikely to get enough shards to upgrade an officer, so no chance to even try and do the officer events?
carmine lily
@severe bridge I did verify, by hitting the button just once, that’s a ton of points for one upgrade, especially when faction credits are needed. Large numbers of people are making the same mistake because the event description is vague. Also many players don’t have the rare uhura and uncommon Scotty to upgrade because they barely ever drop, so they do what they’ve got and end up confused, disappointed, and angry. And rightly so, it’s a ptw event.
crisp jasper
Oh - they gave the exact reward drop percentages. That's huge progress

@[ARKV]TheBatMan957#5664 it’s not a normal hostile hunting event, it’s a dmg done to hostiles leaderboard. Which means you are hunting bosses and swarms 4 days caus they have most dmg done per hour
@shrewd totem
crisp jasper
So, when you get your one passkey for the day, do you just use it? Or is there any reason to expect there might be itnra-day events to get more?
shrewd totem
@leaden cipher there is also a solo one
@crisp jasper there is cd of 1 day each time you use pass key

@shrewd totem thx for the information
shrewd totem
Nope there is no cd,sorry

Oh - ok, so then no harm in spending as you get them

I’d like to report a typo with the current event. It should be Payers Leaderboard not Payback Leaderboard.

@severe bridge you, sir, are absolutely right! this typo is embarrassing...

no payback is right
they are paying back scopely for the all time they got to invest in reading CC statements

Big issue with the officer exp spend event?Faction credits.
This event unfairly punishes romulan and klingon faction players

At least rewards are good
hybrid sigil
Well , i have had green scotty waiting to be promoted for awhile, spend the 100 xp and 1000 faction credits to do so. Still shows zero points in the monthly event. Shouldn’t i have 100 points?

The promote with 1000 faction credits is more like 125000 exp
And I think it’s 1150 faction credits
Restart maybe@hybrid sigil

i did twice, and it may have been 1150

Does it count the officer xp spent in promoting or just leveling?

@winged tulip counts promoting and xp spent, so both 😊

Cadets don't count
Contact support if you upgraded correct officers, they will sort you out

Why doesn't it say that. It says officer points not that it has to be spent on the which scotty to spend it on.
shrewd totem
@white oasis have you looked at event pic or new announcement in news tab?

That doesn't matter when all the shardes are the same pic.
There are moments I really hate this game. I didn't have the points to waste.
This is why I never changed me bad review of this game.

Is the payback event only available to lvl 24+??

While one could argue that it may be a bit unclear, the event says just 'Scotty' and there are not 2 officers named 'Scotty' since one if named 'Cadet Scotty'.

The Event totale sucks. Worst Event..comparted with the damage done leader Board...normal Lvl 30 aigainst the top Players on the Server. They do x Billion damage in a Hour and the normal Player gets x millions in 24 Hours.

So let me get this straight: I kill 10 ships and get about 1m tri, some rss, and about a dozen officer shards? Ok by me

Mine is not the same as others.
Mine does not mention rare or uncommon in it.
It does for other players.
chrome rune
It doesn't for me, and it doesn't have to.
chrome rune
There is only one Scotty, there other is called Cadet Scotty. So if it says Scotty I spend my stuff on that officer.
raw zenith
and you have to click the reward tier to open it to see the other rewards

So I just wasted 96 thousand points
raw zenith
The event said which officers to upgrade.
white oasis
I've never had to look at rewards to get the rewards before.
raw zenith
the event is specifically limited to upgrading specific officers
devout talon
This game has many flaws and I really dislike this event more than many others, but let's not blame on that something that is caused by your impulsiveness
chrome rune
As to the reason why it doesn't show the colored text with uncommon, this is another case of scopely/digit doing things incorrectly....
white oasis
Yes. Scotty is one of them.
raw zenith
Scotty is, Cadet Scotty is not
they are two different officers with different abilities
raw zenith
The event says "Level up (Uncommon) Scotty, (Rare) Uhura, or Alexander Marcus"
chrome rune
It didn't if you opened the event too early
raw zenith
🤦
chrome rune
The initial event text was just "Level up Scotty, Uhura, or Alexander Marcus". This was then changed to the colored text mentioning Uncommon and Rare...but obviously the client caches translations so some people didn't get the updated text.
viscid grove
Does promoting them count towards xp?
hardy parcel
Next week Romulans or Klingons 🙈🙈🙈
hollow goblet
Worst event idea yet. Level up 2 pointless officers, and a third that will need so many shards, and the only way to get them is to spend money, because at one a day from killing hostile you’ve no chance otherwise.
chrome rune
@viscid grove it should, since you have to spend xp for promoting
viscid grove
Very true. Again paying wins

Uhura isn't useless, besides they can go on lower decks @hollow goblet

Hw is uhuru not useless. Wouldn’t have her on the morale crew.

Sure lower deck. But then that’s a bit rubbish to have to spend money on.
Are you thinking of cadet Uhuru?

BIG FLAW with event, if you are not Fed factioned you can't get the Fed credits needed to promote scotty,Uhura or Marcus,
merry fulcrum
You Can do the fed missions @royal horizon

There are none that I have that I can complete
merry fulcrum
Plus faction hunt, but most people have probably already used those credits

@raw zenith mine doesn't mention uncommon or rare
royal horizon
Too far range or too big ship

@white oasis if you clear localization and restart the game then it will. I explained the reason earlier.

What good will restarting the game do me. I've already wasted my points.
merry fulcrum
Yep, do them, I do klingons in faction hunt, sitting around with 1.4k klingon credits, only done 3ish klingon missions
white oasis
You should tell others so it doesn't happen to them.
shrewd totem
@white oasis have you tried a restart?
white oasis
@shrewd totem restarting won't get points on the event or my points back so I don't know what good it will do. But I try it. I do it every now and then. It makes the game run smoother.
shrewd totem
Lose of points in event is your problem by spending off exp on wrong crew,but a restart might fix the issue of event description
chrome rune
I have to be honest, that you wasted the points is your own fault, if the event says Scotty then don't touch Cadet Scotty, it's not that hard.
shrewd totem
Or read the news about event
dapper drum
they should not have said scotty in the wording
because scotty is cadet scotty, the other is montgomery scott
but it was obvious with the avatar used as there is a huge age discrepancy
also doesn't montgomery have an orange shirt and cadet scotty have a red shirt?
shrewd totem
Why not read news instead of being confused?
white oasis
@dapper drum I only have cadet scotty and Montgomery Scott.
dapper drum
I don't have marcus and both uhura and montgomery are maxed out at tier 4
I don't have the shards to promote them
so doesn't matter to me anyways 🤣
omg the anxiety is building
white oasis
I have a life. I think an event should say what it is for and not go read stuff we sent you yesterday so you can can do an event. Why do they put information on the event ifits now what you're supposed to do.

@gaunt yacht This "Jailbreak" event should have a 1hr cooldown on it. Only took me 10 minutes to complete it. Did they miss some reward tiers off it?
alpine yoke
On the one hand, it's nice to be able to take a break. On the other, I'm bored now 😂
This kind of highlights how many complaints are just pebkac. Could the promotion event description have been clearer at the start? Yes, that's why they clarified. Was it already clear enough if you were paying any kind of attention? Yeah, all the images in the event are of the Enterprise crew versions of Scotty and Uhura, and the word cadet wasn't anywhere in the event description. Any issues occurred because they overestimated their userbase's ability to make simple distinctions

You don't have a different version of the game. You have the exact same thing he has in that screenshot, or you're so far behind you don't have uncommon Scotty at all and couldn't participate in this event regardless. And I didn't call you an idiot, I said the problem was user error. Which it was.

Easy pick the one with the already most shards
Hope for the best and level it up
Or be foolish and take marcus 🤣

That helps, a little,... Sooo, my only hope is to level Montgomery?
You'll notice I'm skinny on officer exp as well, ho hum...

I have more shards for Uhura and Montgomery than I can use as I can't promote them due to lack of fed credits, so I'll be going with marcus

If I use my only token, I'm sure to have enough shards to upgrade either Scotty or Uhura. But I don't have the credits. So should I go for Marcus?
earnest snow
I would, a guaranteed amount of any purple is not to be passed up in my opinion.
Especially if you can't use either of the other options.

Thought so too... But you get way fewer shards
Well, I'm like 60 shards away from unlocking Marcus...

I see they did a stealth update to the news to relieve the confusion over which officers to upgrade. nice of them to do that after most everyone has already discovered the cadets dont work.

Most everyone figured that out on their own without having it spelled out for them
carmine lily
yup by making the mistake of spending points on them.
alpine yoke
Needlessly hostile, sorry @carmine lily
carmine lily
Thank you, appreciated.
to be fair though, the event pictures do not match the officers pictures, lots of people got confused there. on our server so many people tried upgrading them that it became a running joke that the cadets were smarter than the more advanced officers because they didn't get caught. The smart ones checked points before doing multiple upgrades but word couldn't get out fast enough for everyone.
Yeah it "should" have been clear which officers to upgrade, but becuase there were two officers with the same name many of us decided to try the cadets just to see if they counted as well.

<@&509690795536941056> why is the jailbreak 1 every 24 hours when pretty much everyone can complete it in minutes!? Yet bfg was for me anyway more than double the kills but in a 8hour block. Still
royal horizon
I agree, should be at least every 12hrs if not every 8hrs
The officer part is crap, but the rare crystal is going to get my 2nd gun on tier 5 d3😎

12 would be fine to give some people a chance to get online and complete ect... but 24 hours fir this event is over kill.... just looking for some feedback from the <@&509690795536941056>

probably because they don't want you to get to many of those passkeys for free? 😂
@royal horizon what ops level?

change to every 8 hours, what? i can't kill the hostiles fast enough to finish the event in 8 hours...
a day is good enough duration...

The keys make no difference to me dont have enough faction credits or officer XP to promote anyway 😅
Would be great to get some sort of info transparency at times so you can plan ahead instead of typical make you spend money tactics. It's getting really old!!!

This ☝
elder topaz
agreed, a heads up would be great
rapid sky
@north olive they are useful for most players, I can get enough shards to promote Uhura or getting closer to unlock Marcus...
and of course since there's a pack in the shop they can't give too many away for free 😂

I won't actually be spending any XP as the only viable option is scotty and I don't use him anyway so it's a waste

the other fun part the 3x8 required me to kill 32 ships every 8 hours (96 per 24 hrs) during the work week.....1x24 requires me to kill 6 ships in 24 hours on the weekend when most people have more time......who designs this stuff? ship count based on killing 24s when at lvl 20
rapid sky
ops 30 was 38x34
winged surge
Also, if you compare the key pack, to lets say federation pack, at my level, if you change the keys for average 4 marcus shards per keys and you use average stats for the ultra packs,, then the federation packs give you like 2x more epic shards but all random, 5x to 6x more rare shards, + 9k fed credit, for the same price of their key pack... 🦃
Now ... who bought it 😂
I could do and doculent the maths if ya want, i did that from mind without paper pen, and without taking into co sideration the % chance of getting a full rare for example
They think people who have money are dumb at maths or what?

devout talon
@winged surge people with money are not dumb but most often buy on impulse.
This is what all p2w and lootboxes driven games thrive on, in addition to FOMO (fear of missing out).
Scopely is not run by monkeys, but rather financially savy people. Or they would not rake that much money in.
The problem is that this approach can significantly damage players and brand loyalty. But as long as they show those quarterly increasing profit margin to shareholders, they won't care.

i dont understand how it can be this hard for the devs to make these ranked events fair , as a lvl 27 its absurd that i have to compete with players who are way past lvl 30 cant be that hard to divide the ranked brackets into how many drydocks the station have or are able to have
royal horizon
@rapid sky random, level 30, a few days ago
civic vault
For me, this is a great excuse to spend a nice weekend outside ot go to a movie, etc.
Solo rewards are.. Rewarding.
Ranked are for the guys who really want to spend time in the game. Seen guys in our server with a small Franklin getting in first 20. Fair enough.
Meanwhile, Is another excuse to grind for reputation while getting rewards for it.
shrewd totem
I would choose spending time outside during weekends
civic vault
Officers events are for those who don't have them yet, so I think are fair enough also. I have them as promoted as I want (for now), so no need to rush. I let the place for other players
By far beats the domination events:))
But they could even the prizes a bit, so that first place doesn't get such an advantage
potent hound
@meager galleon, yeah pretty much. Except I would have a different bracketing system. Why that isn't ANY kind of bracketing system already blows my mind.
meager galleon
What brackets would you propose?
spiral forge
i first was a bit disappointed as i dont really need these officers. but i admit that it is a good event: the hostile killing is easy, you can get pretty rewards from it and something like 45 shards of scotty in only 3 days. and if you interested in one of these officers, its bingo!
reef adder
i think bracketing should be the same as event difficulty. 22-23, 24-25, etc
this gives a chance to most players in those brackets to win top rewards instead of what we currently have...im competing against lvl 39s while at 29. theres no chance id get close to top 10
spiral forge
i like this idea. some leaderboard could have bracket and some not. that will be more fair for low players, they will be judge on their efforts then
meager galleon
I think those brackets are too small
reef adder
it would be an improvement nonetheless
shrewd totem
sure,because I cant complete with a lvl 38 player who already scored 2b points
reef adder
lol. true.i figured the smaller brackets gives those players stuck at certain ops a chance to grow quicker and advance. but your suggestion is a major improvement and would actually make me get out there and compete
top player on my server is at 5.5b. im only at 154mil. yeah...
reef adder
rank 58 currently so i can climb a bit more grinding reds but theres just no way ill get close to top 10
even no-lifing hitting swarms can i compete..what is the point? tighter range of brackets should definitely be a thing
heady moth
@shrewd totem why is that better that leaves just the same problems like the mining event or are you arguing that players who can launch 4 ships (lvl 28 ) dont have an unfair advantage over players who can only launch 3?
in ranked events
shrewd totem
@heady moth in hostile events number of ships doesnt matter if you dont have good ships.But yes 4 docks is a huge benefit during mining events
And in this event you get points for damage which can is easy if you are hitting lvl 35 swarms with maxed Franklins
heady moth
@shrewd totem ocf it does having one extra ship to do dmg with in a dmg done event is an advantage no matter ,there is way less difference in what dmg done a lvl 22 compare to a lvl 27 then a 27 compared to what a lvl 32 can do
shrewd totem
@heady moth can you see what I suggested earlier?
Not the best lvl brackets but better than nothing
heady moth
yes thats what im responding to since the easiest way would be to bracket players by how many drydocks they have on their base for a start
heady moth
isnt that more fair anyhow?
but why change the low lvl brackets could be 22-27 28-34 ect atleast make some brackets at higher lvls to start with atm there is absolutly no point in even trying to compete since i cant do the dmg done a lvl 30+ can
shrewd totem
Best would be lvl 20-23,24-27,28-31,32-39.But then brackets are too small @heady moth
meager galleon
28 vs a level 34 there is no competition which is why I suggested 28-31 and a 32+
heady moth
yeah that sounds good also ,all i want is a fair shot to be able to compete if i put the time and effort into it
tropic totem

May I ask why this event is so biased towards those players who chose the federation?
Even buying the pack for €110 is useless.
I don’t have the fed credits to do anything with the officers.
meager galleon
All points I’ve brought up in my feedback Cuchu- agree with you
tropic totem
It seems to me that scopely bias the majority of events towards players who ally themselves with the federation. Klingon separatist event favored fed ships. This event does. And the ongoing swarm daily’s favor fed explores too.
It’s not really fair on players who align to romulan or Klingon
This is not a fair event. A fair event would have been an officer at the same rarity from each faction to tier up.
civic vault
@tropic totem , Vahklas is also an explorer. So is Centurion.
And even my Sally was decent against swarms, at the beginning.
tropic totem
Vahklas isn’t same lvl ship as a mayflower. Or payflower as most ppl call it.
Plus. I bought an officer pack for €21:99 that said “guaranteed unlock” but it didn’t unlock anything. Plain misleading that is. Not just unfair. Just plain wrong.
abstract gate
@shrewd totem can you please add those brackets to the suggestion list so that devs actually consider it? Those brackets seem most logical. Doing those galaxy wide events is just ego booster for whales, nothing else.
merry fulcrum
@tropic totem that means you already had the officers, you just got more shards for them
meager galleon
For base officer yes
I’m all for pointing out flaws and what not, but you can’t just throw common sense out the window
It’s a guaranteed unlock if you have 0 shards 0 level on the officers

What is more interesting, unlocking marcus or upgrading uhura or scotty ? Because marcus will be 5 not so much power...

Imo uhura is best

Marcus

PVE bosses...
a separate alliance fleet that members can contribute too?
Or the ability to group together your own ships into an armada?
Or maybe just borrow ships from a friend? Within a level limit?
warped stag
Marcus for me, or to push him on closer to 15. Uhura is not one I goto and Scotty is maxed. No brainer for my options.

I will need a date on Armadas so incan throw up a 3day while the server is wrecked with bugs. Thanks

@river ingot don't be like that, without enough ppl to yell about bugs, Scopely will ignore us and bugs will persist. We need you!

What can i say im a realist
abstract gate
@hardy parcel I think, since it is in alliance tab, that your first option is the most realistic. Probably a big fleet controlled by an Admiral and Commodores, attempting to bring down epic enemies with epic loot

Lots of tritanium. Get ready for some serious ship upgrade/repairs maybe?

I just spent 17M on upgrading three of my Cents wep 😱

@meager galleon you serve your alliance well comrade! 😂
meager galleon
Spent 1K Rom Credits I didn’t want to also, but they went to Decius so.. can’t complain - lvl 15 now
abstract gate
Well that's awesome, Decius is awesome... Unfortunately mine is 5/5
How much does he give damage on lvl 15?
hardy parcel
@meager galleon I donated 60m to finish a mission yesterday. The rewards were nice tho....
meager galleon
meager galleon
1% each time, what were you expecting?

Idkn something like 15% at that lvl
meager galleon
Each time the ship gets hit, consider you get hit at least on average twice a round

Oh. C'mon after Harrison and crazy returns from Spock it was about time to give Romulans some love and op officer

Nobody knows what they are thinking of... Or why... But I was expecting Decius to go up a bit...
alpine yoke
Don't officer leaderboards generally go up to 25 instead of 10?
simple spear
Once you pass a certain level they go to only 10
alpine yoke
😦
simple spear
Did you just level ops?
alpine yoke
Yeah, a few days ago to 28. bleh
simple spear
Yeah that sounds right. I was disappointed as well. After you get to 28 it's very hard to win anything in them
alpine yoke
Yeah I'd imagine. Oh well. I like the non-leaderboard events better generally, just was a little surprised
earnest snow
Good to know, I'm holding off on 28.
simple spear
For instance, someone has spent 30mil officer xp in my current event. He's my admiral tho 😆
alpine yoke
Honestly I wish I'd stayed 27 for a while longer too @earnest snow . Even though I was there a couple months I think
Yeah the top one in mine is a level 37 who spent 28 million :\
Like...thanks for the new bracket guys
simple spear
Yep...You'll see that every time now
I used to able to win ship xp events with 200k, now that barely gets you top 10
alpine yoke
Well...fun. lol
simple spear
Best to save it for solo boards
alpine yoke
Yeah, I like to wait for double events if I can
simple spear
Yeah
simple spear
That really is nice...
alpine yoke
yeah I do enjoy being able to mine with 3 ships at once but honestly I'd trade for the easier event goals if I had the option. lol
simple spear
If you're patient you can level a dock or a turret only once a day and get a ton of speed ups for cheap
alpine yoke
true
simple spear
Cuz again...don't try to win a ranked event lol
alpine yoke
haha
merry fulcrum
What are rewards for lb???? @alpine yoke
Trying to figure out how to spend my officer xp
alpine yoke
lb?
earnest snow
Leaderboard
alpine yoke
oh oh
That's first
Second
Erm how far do you want me to go @merry fulcrum ? lol
merry fulcrum
That's good @alpine yoke
alpine yoke
okey
earnest snow
nice increase
merry fulcrum
Same as me, im at 25
It seems that uncommon wise, it's better to just do the limited time officer events that aren't ranked
alpine yoke
yeah I've always felt like that
merry fulcrum
Because at 25 I have to spend about 4mil xp to get first, but the limited time events have 7 or 8 for top reward, at 165k
alpine yoke
once in a while if it's a double event, ranked and unranked, I'll try to get in the top 25 if it's not crowded
buttttt that's no longer an option I guess
earnest snow
indeed
merry fulcrum
And I'd get 43 uc ore for doing limited time ranked evemt, and placing first
Lol do it when it's double, and no rank event
alpine yoke
yeah
earnest snow
at 27 to do both officer non rank events its 210k
I'm waiting till 3 mins before the rank event finishes to see if theres a 2nd officer event starting up or if its something else after the rank one.
alpine yoke
At 28 it's 160k for the cheaper non-ranked event and...I dunno for the more expensive one with better rewards. I'll let you know when one pops up
merry fulcrum
I love how people spend soo much on certain events, like I've actually seen someone go over 100k in a limited time station event
I had a face palm moment
alpine yoke
It's limited time! Got to get on it now!
merry fulcrum
Lol
It's annoying because I'll go double of what is needed on average to win first palce, and bam, people try to beat me
alpine yoke
you're a trendsetter
earnest snow
I don't even know how you'd get that much station XP in one go, I don't think an entire lvl would give that much even if you rushed every single building
merry fulcrum
And i was level 16 when I saw the event, only 1 way to go up 100k power like that, and That means lots of $$$$$$ spent
You can get over 30k at level 17 if you have the speed ups, just upgrading the defense platform c, and drydock c
earnest snow
speak of the devil
whole orchid
@merry fulcrum If you choose the right time, you can be first with only 2M XP
whole orchid
I did it at lvl26
whole orchid
It's more strategy than money in this particular case
merry fulcrum
Yeah, but at lower levels, it's all $$$
whole orchid
I won it 2 or three times without spending
merry fulcrum
Seriously, 100k on a station event
whole orchid
I reached 25k
merry fulcrum
At level 23 that's pretty easy to do
Especially if you unlocked the 3 labs
And didn't bother upgrading them
earnest snow
just squeezed in the rank event
earnest snow
I know but I'm desperate for uncommon crystal
not only does my H require it, almost every research I have left to do needs it 😡

pulsar ether
About one or two months ago there was this event in which you got points when you acquired certain officers shards (like kirk) from opening officer recruit chests. Was that a one time thing or will there be such an event again in the (near) future?
carmine lily
yeah the leaderboard events are level restricted just like the pvp levels are, completely unfair to everyone but the top players. 25s competing against 39s is not a competition, it's a stomping, steamrolling, beatdown.
dapper drum
lol I don't even bother with the leaderboards I even stopped looking at the rewards as it was a waste of time
merry fulcrum
@boreal hemlock level 28s are bracketed with level 39s
misty cargo
The leaderboard brackets are total bullshit. How is someone in the 20's supposed to even keep up with people in the high 30's??? Get your shit together scopely!!!
harsh bobcat
@misty cargo r u with smugglers?
misty cargo
Who? I'm in server 14
carmine lily
brackets appear to be the same as pvp brackets, 25s to 39s all compete in the same group. it's ridiculous, especially with events like this where damage counts. A 39 can do more damage with one ship than a 25 can with all 3, there's no chance.
boreal hemlock
@carmine lily the higher lvl guys are also killing lvl 26 separatists to get these high numbers
carmine lily
@boreal hemlock seperatist bosses with one ship, and high level swarm with maxed out franklin. can't even touch them.
potent hound
@meager galleon, my brackets would be more centered around available ships. My last bracket would be 34+, but others before it would be in groups of 2 levels. For example, 26's and 27's together, 28's and 29's, and so on and so forth.
carmine lily
yup that would be far more fair
cloud grail
So far I haven't heard anyone Happy about this event. I hope Panic and Gala have taken note.
In fact lemme reduce the report.
"Any leaderboard event be it mining, hostile kill or even PvP that lasts over an hour is Bad"
IMHO we are better off cutting the event into multiple rounds with reduced rewards.
Do not facilitate sleep deprivation scopely.
As far as pay to win events are concerned or events that limit participation like this 3 officer thing. IMHO it's not gonna please everyone, but it's a valid way to drive some sales that's fine I guess.
eager hill
a guy on our server is using 2 almost maxed franklin to top this event. don't know to be surprised or feel bad for him 🤣
cloud grail
Same our top guy is running two Franklins and is low on sleep as well. It's an event catering to sleep deprivation and running multiple Franklins. So paying grinders are king on this 4 day grindfest
echo venture
Nice one Scopely. The alliance officer event doesn't really give anyone a chance unless they're willing to by a pack full of keys. awarding 1 key every 24 hours is not good enough to participate and stand a chance of getting anywhere.
carmine lily
of course its a sleep deprivation event, why else do you think they'd run it on a weekend.
cloud grail
Well I've learned. And since I'm so UC gated I don't have anything to do in a deserted server. The event is an opt out for me.
hardy parcel
This would make for an awesome wallpaper

Yes @hardy parcel

I like the new teaser trailer. But, it looks like player station was decimated. No reason for reds to have both Klingon and Romulan ships defending
hardy parcel
@abstract gate who said anything about reds?
abstract gate
Oh, and pooooor Talla... 😖
@hardy parcel I was hopeful that it would be more PvE oriented
hardy parcel
@abstract gate it still may be. Could be reds, could be blues. Could be the base was a red but they had to defeat a player armada to win the right to attack it? Too many questions 😍😍😍
abstract gate
@hardy parcel I agree. Would be awesome to have something so complex as player armadas defending red base...
shrewd totem

This leads me to believe at least part of it is big pve targets

@abstract gate maybe so they can borrow each others ships? 🤷♀️

@abstract gate thanks 😉

@shrewd totem I presume xD it's been a long time since it was up, and it's about time.. 🤣

Today or tomorrow I'm expecting Panic to say when is maintenance, that should be Wednesday sooooooo yeah...
@shrewd totem oooooh how I would love that xD

It's frustrating how many limited base and officer there are, would be nice if it was a set roster... there an idea @shrewd totem as a new member of the team you can shake things up I'm sure 😉
Congrats by the way 👍
shrewd totem
Maybe there is no maintenance?
hardy parcel
@abstract gate maybe the back end changes are already there, we just can't see them yet....
Just a push update and a client update and we're ready?
abstract gate
@shrewd totem I doubt that, they couldn't make latinum daily chest work with maintenance, seriously doubting they can pull dry armadas

@warm spoke Thanks 🖖

@shrewd totem I still have twitching in my eye from their notifications about base raids that are few hours late...

abstract gate
Red base raids are one of my main ideas about what this game is missing. Don't get me wrong, I love player base raids, but I hate being forced to do so.
shrewd totem
Not soon,prepare
@abstract gate yep,sometimes it feels bad to steal what others paid for
hardy parcel
Also remember Scopely hates to give dates for anything. So if they are committed to this month it probably means they are ready now.
quick sand
Not true ... look at the schedules in the announcements 😉
shrewd totem
Schedule? @quick sand
abstract gate
I want choice to do one thing in multiple ways. So if I need 50 mil parsteel, I want options on getting that. Not just robbing ppl and boring events.
quick sand
Also, sometimes not giving a date with a set of dates is an intended mention of the date
Yes ... you get event schedules ... no?
shrewd totem
@abstract gate well you have options.
Missions
Dailies
Events
Raiding
Mining
@quick sand Shh 🤐
abstract gate
@quick sand you are very cryptic today
abstract gate
Missions, mining and dailies give nowhere near the needed resources for steady upgrading without prolonged pauses in production
shrewd totem
PATIENCE or $$
quick sand
No? over the last 10 days, I've got over 200mil in parsteel plus lots more from doing just that, not raiding
shrewd totem
True ^^
quick sand
I can't spend it quick enough
shrewd totem
Me too.I need to shield 7/24
abstract gate
@quick sand it is true, the events have improved. But not in diversity, just same old stuff over and over again
As for 200 mil... Well I've got about 30. Have no idea how you got 200.. XD
I can't compete woth whales on my server xD
quick sand
There are 3 types: Mine, grind, and raid ... what are the others that you're thinking of?
Did you count the tokens?
abstract gate
Yeah
quick sand
Did you count the refines
abstract gate
What?
quick sand
what level are you, I'm 31
abstract gate
28
quick sand
Do you not get others stuff from events, missions, dailies?
quick sand
and I didn't
abstract gate
There is a shortage of dilithium on my server, other than raiding those who bought it, there is no viable way of providing for research and ship upgrades
abstract gate
Tokens are not expended untill you need them badly, raiding has stopped after those two raid events, about 10 ppl on server have more than mil dilithium
quick sand
I agree, would be nice to have more of it
shrewd totem
Ahh I have 12m dil @abstract gate
abstract gate
It's not viable to grind for it. Mining par and trit isn't bad. But dilithium is pain, especially when you want to grind for these events and theres not much of it in rewards
@shrewd totem come to my server please 🤣🤣🤣
shrewd totem
Server merge?
abstract gate
I would merge with founders server. They can raid me all the time, just to not see empty half of the bases in galaxy 🤣
@quick sand so that was my proposal, long time ago, remove the limits on resource generation buildings, let them generate even above cap, and make red bases possible.
Generators don't give much, they are just one more thing that trickles res slowly to the players. As for red basses, devs can make them have Data, resources, materials even bloody tricorders when it's time for Dark space
So many options
quick sand
Miner of choice with correct officer
abstract gate
Yeah. Mine is stuck on T6 for month xD
shrewd totem
Me too
abstract gate
The other one is t4
shrewd totem
I need 700 unc cry.Any donations welcomed
hardy parcel
Dilithium is slightly easier now with the biomineral refine options.
But still too dependent on the combat training missions imo.
It is more than possible to get enough from dailies etc to "tick over" but very difficult to build a surplus for big upgrades.
quick sand
Gas G3 Rares are just not refining for me 😢
abstract gate
@quick sand mythical things... I don't believe they exists in refinery xD
hardy parcel
@quick sand whispers conspirationally - I have seen them. Rarer than unicorn sh#t.... 😱
Actually on a serious note I am getting more rares now. I think it is very much ops dependent.

Do the training missions for dil, they give millions away

@shadow glen that's great until level 30. After that you can get stuck on the bosses for a long, long time

Bosses are hard, but use two or three ships
And trigger them by your base so you can repair and repeat

@shadow glen impossible when you can't kill that captain for a month, I'm stuck on 33 for more than 2 months
@meager galleon hey you... Good morning 💕
shadow glen
Multiple hits work, I did it this way myself
hardy parcel
@shadow glen I was stuck on the 37 boss for ages. Just depends how lucky you have been with your ship selection.
Multiple hits only reduce the shield. Does nothing to the hull.
shadow glen
Yeh, if you cannot do the hull you’re stuck
A good morale crew helps
With Marcus
At least on bortas
shrewd totem
@meager galleon we still have a whole day ahead,no time for resting 😔

@shadow glen like I said it depends on your ship selection. People with a decent saladin or bortas managed a lot easier than the romulan supporters. At least on our server. Ofc if you have great crew it helps

grave violet
What was Scopely thinking reducing the Swarm spawn rates? I only need 50, but what should only take 15 minutes now could take over 3 hours. That’s just based on how long I am waiting between spawns. Hopefully, no one else comes to this system.
abstract gate
Actually, spawn rates should increase as more players are present.
grave violet
Really? There’s 22 players here. Most are active, meaning 10+ ships going after every spawn.
This defines isn’t worth it for trit and a few unc crystals. Can do better hunting regular hostiles.
lilac raft
Anyone know when I can expect a USS Franklin bps event?
I feel like the pearly gates might arrive first 💀
dapper drum
🔜
potent hound
@grave violet, I noticed that sometimes if a lot of hostiles are being killed you need to switch between galaxy view and system view. This will refresh the system and make hidden hostiles that respawned, but were not visible, appear for some reason.
inner cave
Goto a different system. Their are 2 different systems from 24 up
It’s not just swarm that the spawn rate has dropped, uroth has a low spawn now
carmine lily
many systems have been affected, some have no hostiles at all, some have only 1-5
novel fulcrum
Anyone know when harrison will be available again?
novel fulcrum
@fallow meteor so helpful
merry fulcrum
Lol, trust me they won't release him
I saw a saladin farm a bunch of ships, ranging from vahklas-bortas
The one saladin had harrison, it even killed another saladin 100k stronger without a scratch
novel fulcrum
It would be illogical to withhold him. He is the single most sought after item in the game.
merry fulcrum
Yeah, then every saladin would be a force to reckon with, no other faction would stand a chance
novel fulcrum
Not true
fallow meteor
centurions wouldnt have a chance if everyone had harrison
novel fulcrum
My carol counters him quite well
merry fulcrum
Not really
fallow meteor
there are officers that are out now that counters him pretty well
mara is not a bad officers against harrison on a sally
merry fulcrum
Yeah, only to a certain extent, but the maxed harrison removes 100% of shields, do you want everyone having that???
That will ruin the epic ships
fallow meteor
no one has a maxed out harrison
novel fulcrum
Exactly
merry fulcrum
There's one person, Phil is at 70%
fallow meteor
and krell is really good against a sally with harrison
novel fulcrum
Which phil?
merry fulcrum
The mod
fallow meteor
thats only a tier 2 or 3 harison
merry fulcrum
Yep, 70% is t2
fallow meteor
ya not even close to maxing him out
novel fulcrum
Someone is getting kickbacks lol
merry fulcrum
Goes up by 10% each promotion from what i can tell
It wasn't Phil who maxed him out
fallow meteor
no one has a maxed out harrison
novel fulcrum
Nobody has maxed him out legitimately
fallow meteor
the event wasnt long enough to get enough
merry fulcrum
I'm looking, someone was talking about it a month ago, so ill be searching for a whole
Yeah, but remember the glitches? Where you could repeat events?
fallow meteor
he was in the event store and a couple of missions thats it
trust me no one has a maxed out one
novel fulcrum
Hence why i know be will be released again
meager galleon
There’s ways to 100% it even if not maxed
novel fulcrum
The money scopely would be giving up would be astounding
meager galleon
He’s pretty broken, unlikely they want him flooding servers
fallow meteor
yes if u have him as cap and and officers that have synergy to boost him
or u use yuki sulu with him
meager galleon
Pike
fallow meteor
ya him too
novel fulcrum
Kras should be perfect against him, but he’s useless
merry fulcrum
Exactly, Harrison + kuron= your not stopping a saladin
Had to look, but this was in feds channel, now to scroll up in officers lounge
fallow meteor
cuz he works for scopley and gave him self a maxed out harrison
novel fulcrum
As i said, no one has a LEGITIMATELY maxed harrison
merry fulcrum
Yes, but im saying, someone has it
So imagine the saladin shooting the big gun 2 times round 1
With no shields
novel fulcrum
And im pretty sure if he ever used his harrison hed be canned like a tuna
alpine vigil
@meager galleon what do you mean pike? Did they fix his ability to actually work?
novel fulcrum
The backlash would be brutal
merry fulcrum
Doesn't matter about him, it matters about the entire player base having him
novel fulcrum
Scopely is all about money, to the point of obsession. They give 0 ***** about breaking the game. They are simply maximizing the demand for harrison for when their profits are dipping
merry fulcrum
fallow meteor
ya he cheated his way to get it but there is no way for someone to have a maxed out harrison if u didnt recode u account to have a maxed out harrison
merry fulcrum
They are thinking about the money
meager galleon
@alpine vigil pretty sure Pike works
merry fulcrum
If everyone can max out harrison, and get kuron, then the epic ships are useless
novel fulcrum
Not true.
fallow meteor
all the epic ships are broken besides the enterprise
merry fulcrum
Costs less to max a officer compared to getting epics
Oh, its true, how much does your t3 saladin do per crit??
"From main gun"
fallow meteor
i think the biggest i saw on my sally was like a 300k
merry fulcrum
Yep, does around 200k rn
fallow meteor
but the D4 and Augur are broken
merry fulcrum
Without a crit
novel fulcrum
Completely untrue, for two reasons. 1, they are rebalancing all ships and nerfing sali. 2, anyone with a harrison and an epic ship trumps any person without an epic ship
fallow meteor
without a crit its like 210k-230k
merry fulcrum
No, not when the enteprrise does 90k damage per round at early Tiers
fallow meteor
thats cuz i dont have tier 3 guns on my sally yet they are tier 2
novel fulcrum
Again, they are rebalancing ALL SHIPS, and NERFING SALI
fallow meteor
@merry fulcrum go ask sumo to hit ur ship with his enterprise and harrison on board
they arent nerfing the sally
merry fulcrum
Yep, no nerf for saladin
fallow meteor
the are buffing all the other ships to bring them up to the sally
novel fulcrum
Ok you keep telling yourself thst. I know nothing 😂
fallow meteor
the sally is fine where its at they just need to bring up the other ships
merry fulcrum
No, i talked with rev about it, he says they plan on bringing up all ships to similar par with saladin
fallow meteor
the sally doesnt get op till about tier 6.5-7
novel fulcrum
Yea and rev knows all lol
merry fulcrum
Actually, he knows virtually everything coming down the line
merry fulcrum
Yeah, im on a server with him as well
But that's not the point, we're talking about game as it is rn
novel fulcrum
Then you know he only knows what scopely wants him to know

before they rebalance any ship they need to fix the D4 and the Augur
novel fulcrum
I like rev, but hes got loose lips, and scopely uses that to their advantage
Now am i 100% sure they are nerfing ssli snd how much? No, but i have my friends in low places too

fallow meteor
thats the reason my main ship is a cent
novel fulcrum
Yep same here
novel fulcrum
I knew everyone would go feds so i started rom
merry fulcrum
I did both like chucky
novel fulcrum
My cent should be a sali killer, due to both faction and combat trianhle strength
fallow meteor
i went fed first but found out that my dailys became to hard once i hit fed rep 1.2 mil so i decided to go dual rep and back my fed rep all the way back down to 0 and bring up my -800k rom rep to 0

Im 4.5 mill tom rep from being max rep all 3 factions

I started the back track at level 21, from - 27k

it took me 16 days of not doing the rep event daily and not doing my daily mission

fallow meteor
the only thing i hate about the cent is the repair time on it
merry fulcrum
Almost like the increased the repair times
fallow meteor
my buddy is 1 thing away from getting his sally to tier 7 and my cent is 1 weapon from tier 5 and we have the same amount or repair time and hes 2 lvls higher than me
when i lose my cent it take 4 hour 21 min to repair it
novel fulcrum
Yep, scopely definitely favored feds
fallow meteor
a tier 6.9 sally when dead take 4 hour 18 min
and my hull heath is like 80k lower than his sally if i am right
novel fulcrum
Yea my cent is t8
fallow meteor
how long does it take to repair when its dead
novel fulcrum
Dunno, i always use speedups lol
fallow meteor
check the time before u use speed ups

@fallow meteor 4hrs 59 mins

novel fulcrum
And i have a decent amount of repair research
fallow meteor
i wonder how long my repair time would be at with ur cent with my 29 drydock
6+ hours
@novel fulcrum i am guessing u have the rom repair speed research at the end of the station tab
novel fulcrum
Yep
fallow meteor
what lvl is that for u
novel fulcrum
I just looked and i guess i dont have repair research 1 for roms yet, i have it for feds and kling
Weird cause i swear I researched it
But I couldn’t have, as it requires 7 mill rep
But it requires lvl 35 r&d to unlock the repair researches
To answer your question
junior ember
Dude, events at lvl 18 let you get jellyfish parts, but rush to ops 20?? Once I got to lvl 19 one more jellyfish event then nothing, can’t get it, 😭
Lol that comment prob better in events feedback
eager hill
@fallow meteor do you have prime speed repair?
eager hill
yeah those prime are not worth the $$ tbh
fallow meteor
some of the primes are worth it
like the officers prime that one u see a difference'
eager hill
sure. was talking about the repair speed and cost and it's worth against real $$. If it were available f2p route, sure why not

Anyone know how long the officer event for Marcus will last
merry fulcrum
Until the lb hits 0
bronze dagger
So one more round
merry fulcrum
Yep
bronze dagger
Crap

Not enough time to make a difference
I’ll be one short
As I’m sure it won’t give me 4
merry fulcrum
Level up to a even level, and you'll get another jailbreak event

Another scropely victim
abstract gate
Do you have to participant in the monthly alliance to get the prize?
The jailbreak alliance officer event.
Yes
Awesome I get to spend credits on Scotty instead of saving for Saladin.
raw zenith
I wont spend any credits on officers until after I have the sally
exotic brook
I did that @raw zenith and it worth it
raw zenith
yea, my credits are staying right where they are

@carmine quiver yeah, 180k for an augur 🤣🤣🤣

@hardy parcel ah, thats nothing..like 2k+ in euros 🤣
hardy parcel
Yeah about that. Or 459 days grinding at max rep. @carmine quiver
hardy parcel
Took me 5 months to grind 100 bortas blueprints.
sweet aspen
Anyone know if there will be event with more USS Franklin pieces?
hardy parcel
@sweet aspen "soon"
compact citrus
so... keenser promised a bonus refinery at the next mining event... don't let us down now...
hardy parcel
@compact citrus he did not say which mining event tho....
compact citrus
he said the next one, that's this one then
hardy parcel
But this isn't a mining event. It is a raiding event but you get points for mining.... or is it a mining event but you get points for raiding? 🤔🤔🤔
compact citrus
there's at least a solo mining event, so it counts. but just to be safe, they should give it now AND for the next one
rough frost
Good question 🤣 I call it the "oliv will get spanked" event
hardy parcel
@compact citrus I second that motion. 👍
compact citrus
@twilit imp motion passed, make it happen!
tame pebble
i third that motion
abstract gate
And you will have my pickaxe...
merry fulcrum
@abstract gate
spare fiber
@twilit imp so is the upcoming call to arms the mining event keenser was referring to as having the bonus refine in the interview?
shrewd totem
@spare fiber we will know tomorrow
merry fulcrum
@shrewd totem call to arms is 9th
spare fiber
^^^
olive rover
Call to arms typically has a mining event along with it
So we'll have the bonus then
carmine lily
So what's the plan here? have a mining event combined with the rollout of Armadas for the purpose of what exactly? is this some kind of attempt to make us tie up most of our ships mining so we're not focused on pvp-ing the crap out of each other? I seriously doubt this event will end up different than any other. The whales have already banded together in mega alliances. They already win virtually all events. Will this really be any diffferent? Logic dictates it will not.
elder topaz
Spent my 3 pass keys (obtained from the event) on Uhura, yay yay, i unlocked her right away :)
copper saffron
What are the times for the update?
carmine lily
@elder topaz I did too, unfortunately i got the minimum amount each time, as usual, so no unlock for me.
carmine lily
i've got literally one officer maxed out cuz that's the only one cards drop for 99% of the time, so no matter what recruit level i do, i get a ton of xp and maybe 1 or two officers cards, it's ridiculously broken.
elder topaz
max is level 30 that all officers can get up to right?
carmine lily
don't ask me, i've only got the one. i assume the rares and epics get higher
modern wren
@carmine lily that happens with the standard recruits. Just bc the lower officers drop rates are so much higher than the others
carmine lily
happens with all the levels of recruits, even the epics, tends to only drop one officer.
boreal hemlock
Which officer @carmine lily
abstract gate
@elder topaz yes lvl30 is max for any officer currently
elder topaz
Thx
muted ether
They wonder why more people aren't participating in events. Rewards used to increase as you climbed the tier. Not for this event.
elder topaz
do the amount given by the token changes?
abstract gate
No tokens are fixed, 100k trit for the greens and 1mil for blues same for par, dili is 10k/100k
dapper drum
should be giving out ship BPS based on your rep and level
I wouldn't mind some faction miner BPS, would save me creds
outer herald
Ok, all i have to say is wow, can't build...
Without
Can't get them unless you goto the alliance store
Can't buy them unless you have
Can't get these unless you are in an armarda. Cant be in an armarda unless you have the building...
Missing something?
neon ridge
I guessing you have to wait til event start to get the parts??
delicate moth
So apparently yes, you'll get them when the event starts.
outer herald
Thought so cheers
abstract gate
so another event requiring you to rush everything in order to participate?
awesome...
neon ridge
You expected any different? This is scopelys usual mo
latent peak
Bet it cost cash to get it
delicate moth
Cash? No, don't think so.
quick sand
We're organised and collecting data now ... everyone is welcome to help ... only 659 systems to search and document ...
abstract gate
to get it faster probably
was explicitly stated there wouldnt be a buyin to compete though
delicate moth
Again, I don't think that's the case. Should be available to all. But ultimately we'll all have to wait and see.
outer herald
@neon ridge i was hoping it would hahaha
@delicate moth when is client update coming?
delicate moth
Don't know. My assumption is we wont need one?
delicate moth
Hmm, well I'm only guessing...
outer herald
Fair enough worth a go... wait and see... cheers @delicate moth
delicate moth
I've asked. We'll see what the reply is 👍
outer herald
👍
delicate moth
A shrug is what I got 😂
outer herald
Lol fair enough
weak copper
Servers are only back up and people are complaining already??? 🤷🏻♂️
delicate moth
@outer herald apparently there will be a client update - today! You'll need this to be able to use armadas. So keep an eye on your store!
outer herald
@delicate moth thought so i'll crawl back to my hole hahaha... thought i was missing something. Wait for it to release properly. Cheers your doing good...
delicate moth
👌
zealous wren
So where do i find uncommon armada hostiles?
How do i get the new currency needed for armada research?
From the alliance store yes, but even that needs another new currency which i see in rewards of armada outposts which i cant hit in the first place
gray rover
Event later today
left sequoia
so if have to wait till event opens why not do update across all at same time.
seems like the kids song dear eliza
delicate moth
You'll also need the client update that will be available from the play/ app store later today.
left sequoia
you need the cores to do the research to build the building to do Armada to get the corea to upgrade the building.......
all the while going back to Farmville while waiting for it to begin.
delicate moth
Yep. Once the event starts you'll get the cores. Then so long as you've updated, you'll be good to go 👍
left sequoia
not your guys fault. it's scooeley I know you are just left to deal with all the complaints
zealous wren
Normally later today translates to roughly 4.5 hours from now
left sequoia
oh joy so 4am my time on the APAC server. HOW convenient. Glad I stopped spending on this game. Just coast along doing what I can do and complaining like a lot of others.....
delicate moth
Times haven't been confirmed. Id keep checking if i were you.
left sequoia
Play for the people I've met in game now and the fun we have not anything else anymore
surely they know when they will release the update and open the event. That's like going to a bar which says will open at 5pm but then saying sure? come in but you can't get anything to? drink or eat till latter
keep coming back and checking and we will let you know😆😆😆😆😆
