Ouch
dapper drum
only been 3 hours 😂
shrewd totem
I use 4 ships luckily 😅
dapper drum
I have crew on that ship I need
sent wrong ship out to armada and recalled it
got stuck in system where it was stopped
shrewd totem
They need to fix that permanently
dapper drum
and nobody can see it either
only function that works is recall and it just ends up back in same spot
shrewd totem
CS is probably fed up with all of those stuck ship reports

The Crucible of War - Alliance Milestone event is i think will be tough for most alliances:
20 Active players.....some with:
Vi'dar, MF, Leg and D3 19+1 points per kill
Sally, Bortas, Cent 29+1 points per kill
1st milestone 900k / ave 20 points per kill = 45,000 hostiles.
45k hostiles divided by 20 players divide by 3 days = 750 hostiles per day.
Let's say an alliance 20 higher level players active on average 30 points per kill...Sally, Bortas etc
30k hostiles divided by 20 players divide by 3 days == 500 hostiles per **day **
TLDR;
Tough event IMHO for any alliance not in the top 15 to 20 rank alliances.
dreamy tide
20 active
dapper drum
time to boot and recruit
shrewd totem
Yep
dapper drum
my alliance has 71/72 and for lb so far 48 have participated in some fashion
and we are semi-active
shrewd totem
Like I said this event is to make alliances stronger and show you the problems you have within alliance IMO
We have 67 members and 53 participated so far
dreamy tide
Alliances not in the top 10 or top 20 will struggle...is what I'm getting at
dapper drum
any alliance in top 50 has the active members to complete
shrewd totem
They can join a bigger alliance or start recruiting active players
It isnt Scopely's fault if an alliance is full inactives 🤷♂️
dapper drum
shouldn't be waiting around for an event to work out alliance problems
shrewd totem
Yep
dapper drum
now unstick my ship you bat of man
dreamy tide
meh you guys missing the point
shrewd totem
dapper drum
if they made the alliance event easy all those in top 50 would have it finished in first day
if you are unhappy with your alliance activity then you need to think about your future in it
tribal elbow
Im in top 16 alliance and at currrently we have 218k points so at this pace we would get 1-3 tiers of rewards
dapper drum
your alliance isn't contributing evenly
any alliance in top 50 can finish final milestone if half participate
dreamy tide
lol completely wrong
dapper drum
10 people in my alliance have contributed more then their share needed and we are near first milestone
the other 40 that have contributed is bare minimum
1000 points to 5000 points and that's for the lb
where levels give extra points
low berry
Im 41 o did alone 30k points so the lb is to high period. Let’s say 39-38-37 will do half of that then lower levels half of their = undoable sorry
dapper drum
I'm lvl 32 I have 800k points on the LB
dreamy tide
you can't see how many points you have
dapper drum
leaderboard you can
dreamy tide
different event
dapper drum
only difference is the points given for hostile level
I've used the same lvl 28 faction ships
low berry
Simple mathematics
dapper drum
and I can see with supremacy event how many ships I've killed
low berry
Nice alliance you have then
dreamy tide
What server you on beast?
low berry
152
dreamy tide
20th spot on my server is only 1.5M points
abstract gate
Anyone know the ship level required to kill for military supremacy at level 34?
shrewd totem
Lvl40 @abstract gate
unreal osprey
In my alliance only 28 of the 47 members that we are at the moment have participated, of those 28 members, approximately 13 have completed the solo event, none have a faction ship because none reaches level 26 (the highest reaches 23 only )
if they want to make a reasonable event at least the 3 stars ships should give extra points too
raw zenith
I’m abandoning the event altogether. Point total per kill for milestone is just too low. And I’m not using my rss stores and speed ups.
pliant skiff
Are the points being added correctly? Using D3 and bortas to kill hostiles but banner says only 1 point added to total. Should be 20 or 30??
unreal osprey
And when the first day of this "reasonable goal" event ends, they will put the silver trophies up for sale in the store and I doubt they will give a decent amount at an affordable price, basically a p2w event or for veteran players, currently in In an economically precarious situation, scopely would have to do a big and completely free event now that people need some kindness and not this.
They could take an example of the companies that are giving away games and make an event where they get prizes that the players really need in amounts that the players feel useful, not 3 green g3 minerals when they ask you 300 for an upgrade
but I guess it's too much to ask right?
pliant skiff
Only get 1 point for using Franklin aswell!
unreal osprey
@pliant skiff Banner is glitched
You get points but notification total is glitched
robust vapor
The banner has always been that way in events that give combination points, this is not new 😶
abstract gate
@shrewd totem thank you
bleak shoal
In the Milestone Event are 10 steps ...but if u dont can claim with 10 players half of first in 24h then is this a joke not an Event.....er are with 10 players 21h and have now only 10% of first step.....thanks for this great EVENT
hardy parcel
Well you need to recruit more people then
It's never going to be easy for 10 players vs 60
hardy parcel
Yes I know. You need to recruit more ppl
Alliances are designed to be between 50 and 70 players
bleak shoal
Players are enough nur only 10 aktiv nur all 10 was playing 21 h in row
hardy parcel
10 players only got 60k points?
Those 10 players did not even complete the solo.
10x400x25 =100k points.
Not to mention the points from hostiles
bleak shoal
After one jour i was finished with solo
hardy parcel
You maybe. You need to get the rest of your alli doing the solo
bleak shoal
All 10 also
bleak shoal
In solo u get 370 or so for 31 ....and in this what i mean u get 1 point + ship extra points ( bortas 29 ) 1 kill 30 points
hardy parcel
Nope everyone gets 400 trophies.
400 x 25 points = 10,000 points minimum for doing solo.
bleak shoal
With 100 players = 100k ....far from 880k
fierce thorn
When will there be a USS Franklin event on the new servers ?
low berry
Anyone knows what happens if you change alliance during events ??
hardy parcel
@bleak shoal 10 players 100k.
50 players 500k
Per day
shrewd totem
And that is minimum
Most alliances have around 60+ members these days
At least in my server
tawny coyote
@twilit imp When are we getting bonus refinery?
shrewd totem
fervent folio
why do I not have silver trophies in my store? I want to give Scopely money but they are not letting me.
floral trail
They are not worth getting, better getting faction crew packs for the officer badges and faction credits
nova valley
@jagged bone military supremacy depends largely on the ships you have available and your faction reputation. if you are ops 23, and have a northstar, franklin, jelly or dvor, (it's slightly more complicated than that, but it will work) thn you will not get the military supremacy event until you turn ops 26
silent horizon
Not everyone gets military supremacy. They are using some black magic to decide who gets the event and who does not. I just got lvl 32 3 weeks, and i never before got military supremacy. However, since then, I got it twice. I suspect that I will keep getting the event until I build a lvl 32 ship; which I will never do, since I dont like them.
nova valley
@silent horizon you are correct. being that you're a 32, it now will "motivate" you to build a level 32 ship. as you WERE level 31, it wanted you to have the 28 ships, which i presume you have.
silent horizon
Exactly. Yes, I have 26,28 and 30 ships. 32 are not my cup of tea. Saving credits for the 34s

woven temple
This event is not possible. Why?
dapper drum
because you don't want to try
tame inlet
....on a server with under 100 active players IN TOTAL.......how on earth are we to have alliances of 50 to 70 people? We have 1 at 48...then 16....13....9....5....
woven temple
@dapper drum grinding since start non stop.
dreamy tide
You need roughly 30 ACTIVE players minimum in your alliance completing the last tier of the solo milestone for three days to get the first tier on the Alliance Event....roughly
merry fulcrum
You probably had a few people buy packs to advance your leaderboards
dreamy tide
dont need to grind as hard if more players complete the last tier solo milestone as a minimum
barren night
oh we are trying to complete it in 2 days.
weak copper
How dafuq? We’ve been grinding like mad since the event started and haven’t reached the first milestone yet, although it’s pretty close now. But still, to be several tiers complete seems impossible
dreamy tide
you will get a jump in points when the solo event resets in 30mins and ppl start completing the last tier of solo.
jagged inlet
Just about to hit tier 2 and we are working hard on the grind
merry fulcrum
Grind pretty much stops after the first tier of the event then it becomes reasonable
jagged inlet
Wanna get MS event done by tonight. Can then sit and hit low level traders for 2* survey parts for the next few days
Wanna scrap 3 envoys for the crystal
merry fulcrum
Lol, I'd just do phindras then, cheaper to upgrade
jagged inlet
Rate of return not as good. Go big or go home 💪
merry fulcrum
Well it's similar, same amount of rares
nova sierra
....on a server with under 100 active players IN TOTAL.......how on earth are we to have alliances of 50 to 70 people? We have 1 at 48...then 16....13....9....5....
@tame inlet under 100? What server is that?
abstract gate
2.3mil top milestone over 3 days so a little over 700k per day. Alliance milestone event is totally doable for a reasonably active alliance where members work towards a common goal
The guy posting above me is screwed however...
shrewd totem
Yep
An alliance with 70 active members can almost finish it just by doing their solo events and collecting gold trophies
abstract gate
Active AND motivated
We have 70+ members but going by the scores in alb only about half are truly putting in the effort
We hit second milestone before reset still so we are on track to complete it in time
upper knot
The new 6 hour events that replaced the ship xp events are terrible
abstract gate
Although that might have something to do with me getting the bloody military supremacy event again...500 lvl40s in 20hrs plus around 2500 lvl38/39 😂
shrewd totem
Motivating is easy in our alliance.Some whales promise seats in their future Epic/rare armadas for top contributors so everyone does their best 😅
abstract gate
Third time I've got that sodding event....scopely reeeeeally wants me to pay for an epic ship lol...nope I'll grind it ty
@shrewd totem interesting tactic...we don't have whales of that caliber in ours (only 2 or 3 high rollers on the whole server)
gusty glen
Hi, does anyone have a screenshot of the gold utility pack payout, just want to check I understand how many rolls of the different things you get. Thinking of getting recruits instead.
shrewd totem
It works for now and everyone loves it so as long as whales can afford the armadas,we are probably gonna score in Top3 in every event
@gusty glen you get one of each.Amount is random but you get every item in there
gusty glen
1 each of top two and 3 of ship xp?
I think I understand it, thanks batman
I'm level 18. Would you say the recruits pack is probably better for me at the moment?
dapper drum
anything at 18 not really worth it 🤷🏽
weak copper
@gusty glen unlike everything else in the game, officers last forever so it’s not a bad choice. Depends what you think is most valuable to you at the moment.
fervent vessel
yo this event has me a little worried
on my server, my alliance is #6 total for the Alliance LB part of the event
but for the alliance milestone we're only 1/3 of the way to the first milestone and the event is more than 1/3 over
like only 5 alliances are doing better than us (and not by much to be honest) and we'll barely hit the first tier of rewards
weak copper
The first tier of the milestone event is deliberately high. The subsequent tiers should be faster to complete
abstract gate
For low population/activity servers the alliance milestone event will be a 💩 show I'm afraid. That first milestone is very high
fervent vessel
still though, we maybe maybe MAYBE might hit tier 2 if we're lucky, no chance of tier 3
abstract gate
Ignore the lb and grind low level hostiles with your best ship (certain ships award extra points)
fervent vessel
I'm doing my daily solo milestone first, then I'll probably just hit level 17 hostiles forever (it's in my home system so it'll be easy to recall when my ships hit max cargo). It's gonna be HELLA boring though
abstract gate
fervent vessel
Oh I'm gonna use those ships (Franklin against low level swarns, vidar mayflower and legionairy in home system)
weak copper
@fervent vessel also, if you’re not doing so already, make sure you & your team mates park your ships in hostile space overnight so you can continue to rack up points while you sleep
fervent vessel
how would that help?
abstract gate
Try to get as many alliance members on board and all pull in the same direction and you might get a few more milestones than you expected
weak copper
Hostile fighters will keep targeting your ships so you’ll get points for defeating them
fervent vessel
hmm so low level hostile systems so it'll take a while to get destroyed
weak copper
Exactly
fervent vessel
not a bad idea. Although I'll miss out on a lot of 3* resource mining by not mining overnight
abstract gate
Hitting all 10 milestones might not be achievable but if you 🚮 the leaderboards and focus on the infinite grind vs low lvl hostiles you can get quite far
Get your solo done first though because thats 10k points for the trophies alone
gilded oxide
Do you really have to make a point before each milestone to get the reward?
fervent vessel
oh hey, for those gold trophies, is it best to use all 400 daily on 5 chests, or should I do 1 or 2 chests at a time and hoard gold trophies for future events?
abstract gate
@gilded oxide I think it's just before the first milestone
Once you've gotten a pt you're registered as a contributer for the remaining duration of the event
gilded oxide
Sounds different in the description 🤔
abstract gate
Yeah...panics explanation seems wrong...given the speed the subsequent milestones should be achieved almost everyone would miss some due to sleep or work etc
gilded oxide
Yeah, I guess so. Thanks for the help
abstract gate
Np, I could be wrong but my understanding of it makes more sense
shrewd totem
It is probably that way
You dont need to score at every milestone.When you score point you will get rewards of that and the milestones that comes after that,not before
But cant say anything sure because there is no way to test it
abstract gate
Yeah that's my understanding too
gilded oxide
Okay, thanks guys😘
abstract gate
Otherwise a dozen alliance members completing their solo while you're asleep would cost you a reward....that sounds too dumb even for scopely
fervent vessel
What about gold trophies though?
I know there's a cooldown when you redeem a reward for recruitment cards
shrewd totem
Recruit tab
fervent vessel
so what's smartest, 50 for 1, 100 for 2, or 400 for 5?
Cause I'm getting 400 a day from milestones so I can do any of them, but I can also hoard them for next event
fervent vessel
currently at 58, will have 458 in an hour or so (solo milestones)
cause with the cooldown I'll have to wait till tomorrow anyways, but technically 100 for 2 is the best deal via trophies vs chests, but then I'll have a bunch for the future and who knows what the future entails
basically, the 50 for 1 is worthless, but is 400 for 5 really better than 100 for 2?
cause if I keep doing this, event after event, I'll one day have thousands or millions of them saved lmfao so is there a point?
shrewd totem
I would spend them
Saving them for a future event which might or might not happen isnt a good tactic IMO
fervent vessel
this is like the 4th event with them though so it's safe to assume there will be more
abstract gate
Never assume anything where scopely is involved
shrewd totem
😂💯
abstract gate
Every lvl35 assumed there'd be more race to ops 37 events with jf bp's...haha nope

@nova sierra server 191....just 1 whale with 3 or 4 jellies and tumbleweeds

Nooooooooo don’t waste on officers lol
fervent vessel
But I want Pike 😦
shrewd totem
I will spend them however I want 🤷♂️
merry fulcrum
Even though you can get Paul Zhou???
nova valley
Is pike in the trophy group?
nova sierra
@tame inlet ripe for server merge it sounds
nova valley
Ok. I retract my earlier statement.
merry fulcrum
Also opened one of the chests with relos, and all the other goodies
shrewd totem
😂
nova valley
Pike being in there is huge. He’s never been in that group before
merry fulcrum
Nor has Paul Zhou
nova valley
Yeah the utility chest is wicked awesome
merry fulcrum
Yeah, both are good
nova valley
Nope. Zhou either. That’s a very welcomed change
merry fulcrum
I did a double recruit for chests, And a single utility chest today
If events like this occur again, I will definitely be saving up my gold trophies from battle for glory events
tame inlet
@nova sierra have been begging for one for a long time.....its getting to the point of people leaving they are so bored....and now events that simply cant be done no matter how commited those left are.....pretty sad really
nova sierra
@tame inlet not sure if you would actually like what might happen after a merge... depends on the server.... could get chewed up by players from a more active server. THen again, you probably have more opportunity to stockplike RSS, so never know
tame inlet
We are the alliance champing for combat....the largest alliance is all mineville players......give me some pvp....pleeeeeese
quick cairn
Is anyone else not getting credit for spending uncommon and rare mats on ships?
proud horizon
Would love to see events with enforced pvp, at fair lvls, why after all this time has this not happened
ashen wharf
the only reason people want mergers are to invade roe servers that are contempt with a good standard of rules.
will just lead to more people leaving
and community shrinking more and more till poof
you wasted k's of cash
🤣
maybe you shouldnt have abused your current servers till they left?
abstract gate
Lol people leave cause its a bad designed game and cause of smaller alliances who are making their players frustrated by beeing so small and useless
merry fulcrum
It's a mix
carmine lily
I'd actually say more people want mergers so that they can join with their firends or to get away from servers with large populations of toxic players. Players wanting to "invade roe servers" will likely be confronted with the very harsh reality that the players on those servers will not allow anyone to break up their peace. Just ask them how they earned it in the first place.
ashen wharf
that could be also true
as they would probably prefer not getting blown up
might even get some 39+ that tried to fight back but couldnt put down a business loan amount of cash
carmine lily
no base is uncrackable and all ships will die eventually.
hoary dove
Hi Lads, any idea when next station ranked event will occur?

Hey $copely, how about looking after those who aint in a top 20 alliance, you know, the OTHER 80%... Players who don't get a look in... Are we expected to wither to nothing? Leave the game? Or abandon those who got us thus far??? & if we ALL JOIN those 20 alliances... Won't we be 80% worse off??🤔So much for helping us progress, as you intend we do...???
meager galleon
3M points for ALB is almost nothing, don’t think you can blame Scopely for being in a tiny or inactive alliance

Scopely: CoW
Players: wahwahwah that's too difficult for my tiny alliance
shrewd totem
😂
abstract gate
3mil points for an entire alliance? Lol I've contributed 5mil+ to our leaderboard alone...and we're still only 4th 😂
Leaderboards are a competition, if every alliance/player could rank high there'd be no competition...rewards are generally trifling in the grand scheme of progress anyway. Most top alliances are competing for prestige and bragging rights not a handful of recruit tokens
hardy parcel
The milestone rewards are very nice. The leaderboard is just for bragging rights
abstract gate
Indeed
Smaller or low activity alliances will struggle with the milestone event though. It requires a level of commitment and focus to progress through it.
meager galleon
My alliance is not super big, but we’ve done it a day early
Extra ships in hostile space and so on, doesn’t take a 24/7 all hands on deck approach
abstract gate
We are 4 milestones from done rn...on track to be done in time
Trick is to 🚮 the leaderboard and focus on low lvl hostiles. It's a fixed score event so hitting lvl40's will cost you tons of repair time and rss compared to the near infinite grind of low lvl manual farming or autofarming
The lb has nice trit rewards....that you'll spend chasing or holding a high position
I've only contributed 5mil to our leaderboard because of the dumb af military supremacy event
That's done now and I have 2 ships autofarming in augment space (triple respected so can't autofarm in faction systems)

robust vapor
We finished our milestone already, only took half the time given 😬
And you only need 30 players doing only the gold trophies each day to hit the first tier.. I understand for alliances of like <20 or players who prefer solo it's a kick in the guts, but alliance participation has always been a part of the game and that they're adding in milestone versions of the events is brilliant I think 👍
And the mechanics of the tiers is the second best solution I think, best being allowed to score at any point 😅 but they're not that hard to get in, there's plenty of tiers to reward bigger alliances without shutting out everyone else 🤷♂️
hardy parcel
Yup, I love the event. I don't like the rewards being all over the place (some in recruit some in alliance store) but otherwise lots of people enjoying this event 😍👍

30-39 hasn’t changed much
I guess everyone on your original server is now in the same brackets so competition for event places are harder

Yup

Steel is still biggest pain.
I got so much trit its not even funny anymore. If i could swap it for steel id be happy

@merry fulcrum just the top tier of daily events needed to earn borg tokens. I. E. Threat from beyond heroic might be out of reach. How are the rest? Usually it takes a while to build up and by the time you're at the top of the next odd, like 27 right now, they're easy.

it definately will be on a day that ends in y

@granite zenith you mean probably

unless they add new days to the week, or rename some, I'm 99.999999999999999999% sure it will be a day that ends in y

Maybe by the time it is out we will have new days? Or it will come tomorrow...

Anybody having issues getting points for using a faction ship in the alliance milestone event? Keeps showing I am only getting one point when I hit with my sally
granite zenith
as has been stated numerous times ... there is a visual glitch in the pop up bar... if you were to check your score on the alliance page, make the kill, then check the score again.. you should have received the full bonus total
hexed lark
Awesome event lmao. Grinded 3 days for pretty much useless 40k ship xp.
robust vapor
Really? You didn't get anything from the solo milestone event on the way? Like 60m steel all up for me each day, worth it 😎
Also you could have viewed the rewards beforehand and decided if it was worth your time doing it.
merry fulcrum
Nah, steel is easy to get, I raided a lot of steel recently
So for some like me atm, steel is a joke, though I know I'll need it
robust vapor
I'll take whatever I can get, haven't had a good raid in ages 😴
merry fulcrum
I'm starting to find lots of more raids now
Which is good
Because that means events have been giving out rewards able to sustain the economy, even improve it a bit
robust vapor
Or the 40+ guys have gotten bored of trying to meet their insane resource demands and have slowed down 😅
merry fulcrum
We've got a 49 who's like #3 in rss raided, and that was from like one or 2 raids against another person who emptied him
bleak shoal
That Game is mostl kidding...in 3 days with 3 times Gold Trophy recrut...no one Red..only 90% green 10 % blue ... i Aso why im gaming ....have to thinking about
robust vapor
We have a 40 as number 1, and the ones that really shot up after 40 opened up all for some reason climbed up the leaderboard really fast 🤔 I'm sure it's not related.
abstract gate
Guys, do you know anything about Military Supremacy. Some of my alliance members have it, some don't
I don't ☹️
It's looking to possibly be tied to what OPS you are, ships you have and what tier they are - but this is just from gathering people's comments. Sadly nothing concrete.
Another player, same ops lvl (30) has it. But yes, his Bortas is about 740 while mines is 670. Maybe, as you said, ship lvl does matter
OK, thanks for your explanation
open berry
Does anyone think the 'Race to ops lvl xx' has been scrapped as an event?
Not seen one in a long time
abstract gate
I think the last time it was called Bolster your Station and that it was about a month and a half or two months ago.

What will we get later swarm Sunday or something else ?
abstract gate
No idea, sorry
hardy parcel
Probably swarm but in reality no one knows
raw zenith
😴
raw zenith
I’m only doing solo portion. Too many in my alliance not participating and I’m not wasting my rss. The solo was completed just by doing combat dailies
raw zenith
We have 40 ppl. No. 4 in the lb but haven’t even hit first milestone lol
I don’t think half my server cares about it
languid yoke
I sure don't
granite zenith
we finished ours yesterday morning... sounds like you both have alliances that don;t work together towards a common goal
raw zenith
I like the format but if you’re in a smaller alliance don’t even waste your time
granite zenith
thats the point... get into bigger alliances
granite zenith
consolidate, merge, recruit for active players
raw zenith
Lol when the top alliances are maxed not an option and no new ppl so recruiting is a no go as well
Meh. We place in top 3 of every other event.
granite zenith
i don't know what to tell ya... we are the 5 or 6th ranked and completed it with ease... we boot the casual players... cause well this isnt a casual game...
languid yoke
I am looking at the numbers our most active alliances put up. They haven't gotten far up that chain.
It is for those who want it to be and we have lives over here. Game isn't that dang good.
granite zenith
we have lives everywhere... or did til the pandemic struck... its still never been a poop and play type of game...
raw zenith
If the rewards had faction credits or ship bps I’d care. I’m not worried about missing out on this event
languid yoke
Me either.
granite zenith
🤷♂️
languid yoke
I made it to level 35 and Epic ships without having to play like that.
raw zenith
I just log in to do dailies right now. And to reset my shield at night
languid yoke
Raid. Lots of raiding
raw zenith
Everyone shielded in my server that’s worth the effort
languid yoke
@granite zenith just the tone of the Crucible QandA says it all. Another dog in the manger.
But at least you can buy silver trophies
granite zenith
didnt need em... we ground it out by 2pm on day 2
granite zenith
im sure some did 🤷♂️
languid yoke
Not anymore for me. Game isn't worth it.
granite zenith
🤷♂️
abstract gate
So who did the bad math on this event? The rewards aren’t worth half the effort it takes to hit milestones.
I think it’s a fair question, why are they still toying with event formats so much? There have been several events structured in ways ppl actually like, but there is an insistence that each major event have its own unique scoring and reward method. This is highly unnecessary, have we not heard the expression stick with what works?
flat fog
The rewards are nice actually..
shrewd totem
Rewards are amazing
@abstract gate you dont want new events,content?We should do same event 100 times and die from boredom?
waxen galleon
We already do that.
shrewd totem
I cant understand people who complain about this event.There is nothing to complain about....
@waxen galleon sometimes events are boring I agree but at least they try new stuff once in a while and we get new content usually once in 3 months!
And now this player is saying we should stop getting new events....
abstract gate
I am referring to the method of scoring and rewards, not the style or theme of the event
granite zenith
they cry... same old events... then cry waa new event.. grow up ffs... change IS good... it implies and creates growth... if it breaks yalls hearts so much Scrabble Go is looking for new players... and they have ads
shrewd totem
👆
granite zenith
method of scoring is awesome... work together as a team or fail... i learned that in kindergarten
shrewd knot
The event was cool. But we didn't even make it to the first award. So that was a crap time.
abstract gate
Very mature response from a Mod
shrewd totem
Get stronger for the next time @shrewd knot.This isnt the last time we get this event probably since 99% of players liked it so far
granite zenith
it is literally spelled out in the event splash screen... only the strongest alliances will be triumphant... thus if you failed... get stronger
shrewd knot
Well guess I'm done with this chat. You all seem "swell"
granite zenith
well when toddlers constantly throw temper tantrums over not getting their way, sometimes you gotta break it down for them on their level
languid cove
We finished it like 40 hours in. I really liked it
abstract gate
So I don’t agree with you on this event and that makes me a toddler? You need to learn how to have a discussion
shrewd totem
granite zenith
except its not a discussion... its whining on your part... where is your reasoned statements, and suggested tweaks to make it a more enjoyable experience for you and others
abstract gate
Different server, different levels, different alliances, produces different results and different rewards. You all know this already.
languid cove
To get the full 2.3 million 70 alliance members have to kill about 1050 hostiles in 3 days
shrewd totem
Nope
They just need to do their solo events
You get gold trophies which is equal to 10k points everyday per person
granite zenith
doing the solo event scores 30k points over 3 days...
languid cove
Ooooh that’s not counting the solo events you are correct!
shrewd totem
10k×3×70=2.1m
From just solo events^
Plus a little grinding and event is finished
languid cove
Then every alliance should have hit it, if not, get a better alliance
shrewd totem
That is the point!
sour jacinth
Buuuuuuuuuut I dont wanna do the math, I just wanna quit and complain it is too hard...
granite zenith
say it louder for the people in the back please
shrewd totem
😂
If you cant finish this event,you have 3 choices.
1.Make your alliance stronger
2.Join a better alliance
3.Do nothing and dont expect rewards from these kinda events
granite zenith
or more basically like we have been saying all along for 3 months... DO YOUR SOLO EVENTS EVERY DAY
and skip the math
languid cove
It’s a game based on Star Trek...no one is skipping the math
proud solar
So now you know just how unhealthy each server is now... Can we get some of the changes we been asking for?
wraith zinc
Hi all, what ´s the event soon ?
proud solar
Get a better alliance,... How? All top ones are full, should we just bail on those who've helped us, those we are trying to help, why be in an alliance if I'm just a mercenary prick... Not the answers that work I'm afraid, this will just cause those struggling to quit, making weak alliances. Weaker killing off servers or is that the point?
wraith zinc
what is the event of this evening please ? ☺️
hardy parcel
@proud solar so that is option 3. Stay where you are and accept you aren't competitive
shrewd totem
@proud solar all top arent full.Look closely you can see open spots in Akoz 🙂
Plus try to pm admirals.Alliance can be seen as full but it probably has inactives
ashen wharf
Literally no one cares about the leaderboards one except the top 2 alliances lol
Or any leaderboard event in general in this game
granite zenith
@languid cove its a pvp/pirate game with a star trek skin... big difference
proud solar
@batman ,got room for my 20 actives?
shrewd totem
I have room for 10,but that doesnt mean you dont have other choices
Try KHAN for example,they have 21 open spots @proud solar
Try to reach out to admirals and see which is best fit for your active players
proud solar
So it's fart in a fan as far as my friends go, I'm better off without the loyalty we shown each other & the help.... Just drop all ethics in pursuit of "a better alliance" don't think I want to play with a bunch of self serving, no ethics or principals disloyal pack of sharks...
No I think getting tools to manage our alliance better is the preferred solution
ashen wharf
no idea why people are saying just get in a better alliance
Like saying if your wife hasnt been giving you the goods lately find another wife
🤣
proud solar
It's the easy thoughtless answer they want us to swallow, just gives us better tools to manage our alliances, but that's too hard
long slate
It’s funny that people think that this is a PvP game
First and foremost, it’s PVE
Swarm, AI controlled; borg probes, air controlled; hostiles, air controlled. The only true PvP event where the realty’s
shrewd totem
So raiding is PvE?
Or killing other people's ships is PvE?
Hive defense is PvE as well?
The tournaments made by players?Also PvE?
long slate
How many events are truly PVP dude
Where you actually get significant rewards destroying other players ships?
This game is 80% pve
long slate
The only PvP component is getting more points then other players
Which really isn’t PvP in it’s truest form
shrewd totem
Clearly you have no idea about PvP in this game
long slate
PvE sprinkled with some PvP
ashen wharf
Player based tournaments are usually hella lame tho
long slate
I don’t because it isn’t PVP
Show me the event where you get rewards for true PVP
I don’t care about player based tournaments, they mean nothing
shrewd totem
To you yeah
ashen wharf
The only ones we had were the ones that ran with seperatist events
long slate
I want true rewards
shrewd totem
But they are fun for most of the people
shrewd totem
If you care about profit only,then you shouldnt play this game...
long slate
Scopely drives this
shrewd totem
This game is about making friends,having fun with them.It is more like social platform rather than a game
long slate
They made it PVE

@shrewd totem Looks like Swarm Sunday is missing Heroic again, at least for level 30 players. Is it coming an hour late, like last time?

Pay 500 crystal to get 120

Only lvl30-31s.I am expecting it to be fixed in 34mins if not tag me and I will let Devs know

@abstract gate it was for Borg Arc 2.Maybe we will open it again during Arc 3 if Panic wants to
abstract gate
@granite zenith Guns before shields because the bonus applies to damage.
@shrewd totem I’m guessing there’s no timeframe of when that will be?
shrewd totem
abstract gate
Lol...
Well we had three days of the busywork event, now the spend crystal I don’t have because the refinery is a scam event... makes one wonder
Gotta say tho that the alliance milestones were more than a little unreasonable... mine is #2 on the LB for the crucible, and couldn’t get all the milestones

@restive inlet *waves magic wand. check again.

@shrewd totem Not fixed

Still no "heroic" swarm event.

Not getting the frequency modulators offer in the store this Sunday. Seems others in my alliance are missing it too. I see everyone noticed the heroic issue in multiple discords, anyone notice the store didn't update properly?
ruby moss
Does whichever faction you chose to help at level 30 effect what UC rss you get as rewards for the swarm events?
So like if you chose fed, you get ore and gas, or if you choose Klingon you get uc crystal?
ruby moss
Ok. Then hopefully you have an answer to this question Batman.
Why is it prior to level 30, I would get around 15 uc crystal for the swarm events. Hit level 30. And it switched to ore and gas.
shrewd totem
level based
abstract gate
Its meant as wall
shrewd totem
I dont get any at lvl 32 so 🤷♂️
ruby moss
Oh wow.
shrewd totem
only rare cry and unc gas/ore
ruby moss
And @abstract gate you mean pay wall
abstract gate
Scopely knows that crystal is the most wanted ressource in the game and wants to limit it
With lv30 you get faction miners which require uc crystal, thats why you get ore.. And right now you should have about 5000uc ore unless you buildt bortas..and the 5000 will increase and stay till the end
😂
ruby moss
I'm fed and Klingon rep. Have sally, bortas, and Antares. Yeah I'm basically screwed on crystal.
Not to mention station.
obtuse otter
So you'll build Brel or Intrepid eventually. Then you might appreciate all the gas and ore
ruby moss
Brel is next on my list. Just getting past what I have is the annoying part.
abstract gate
Could be worse.. When I started the game I decided to go rom/fed..guess who was short on crystal over months
shrewd totem
😂
ruby moss
Good old scopely.
shrewd totem
I need ore more than cry

at lvl 30 your ships should be tiered up that they require rare not uncommon

@gray dagger - unfortunately, we are just volunteers who moderate Discord and Reddit. We don't control the refinery or have any input or insight into it. So we can't really address your concern other than to say we have notified the team that output is still too low.

@keen ledge what happened to the Franklin packs usually available on Swarm Sunday?
They’ve been replaced with 2 ship packs not relevant to Swarm.

I had to use centurion to start with but I've been hitting swarms daily since release. Worth it to have easier dailies and events now

Yes expensive on the Trit but I refuse to sit grinding on Franklin or paying for mods
I also started out using my Cent
hardy parcel
Worth the grind imo. But your choice 👍
meager galleon
My franklin now needs the millions for weapons so
Not grinding millions from lvl 30s
abstract gate
It’s definitely worth the grind. My Franklin does some 30 lvl32 per hull and is only 2.5h to repair
meager galleon
More trips than my Gladius and I don’t mind the Trit costs atm
Have nothing to spend my billion tokens on 🙈
abstract gate
It’s still level 40, will report back when it’s levelled to 45 😬
For me, speedups are always the issue. Too much raiding
meager galleon
3 sets of dailies to do, usually don’t go below 1000 even with lots of raiding
abstract gate
Prime repair speed plus triple faction dailys and swarm dailys = 15k 30min speed ups and counting lol. That's almost a year's worth in j7st 30min 😂
With prime repairs a maxed Franklin takes around 1hr45 min to fully repair. A maxed sally around 6hr10min
abstract gate
For me personally 110€ for that is a bit steep. Especially considering half the pack is grade 2 mats
hexed lark
So this last event the new norm. Work your arse off for 3 days to not even be able to trade in points? Biggest waste of my time since being in this game. Thank you for costing me Millions for ZERO reward! Making the game so fun Scopely, NOT!
abstract gate
Get a better alliance
I can still trade in points for 5.5 more hours, so 24 hours after the end of the event. The timers were clear on that from the start.
If your alliance is low activity/motivation then that's on your alliance not scopely
robust vapor
Costing millions? What did you do?? 😂
shrewd totem
🤣
hybrid ibex
Your alliance needed to get to at least the third tier for the tokens to be tradable for rewards. I dont know what the point of the bottom two tiers were if they didnt give enough bronze thingies to do anything with. I think that would annoy people even more than not reaching the lowest tier would be to reach it and have it be for nothing.
hardy parcel
@hybrid ibex the event will be repeated I am sure.
hybrid ibex
we shall see
abstract gate
Maybe...just maybe, scopely plan to make it a regular feature? Then even the 💩 alliances can eventually benefit
hybrid ibex
I had 63 bronze thingies from some event a long time ago I dont remember. I had silver ones lying around too. The gold ones are much more popular with Scopely events.
Maybe they will @abstract gate maybe they wont. They are remarkably consistent in their inconsistency with events.
As Panic said they were just trying it out to see how it worked. Separatists was a thing for a little while too.

@twilit imp is the 3 month borg event delayed / canceled because of current world events ?

So when are the devs going to fix the starting times for the events? Some events start at 5, others at 6.
peak cave
@solemn sequoia they use UTC universal time clock. That time never changes.

However they still can't launch events at a consistent time
peak cave
They release all events on time regardless of what your time zone/clock states.

"on time"

However some events are purposely delayed to mitigate overlapping.

How do people always seem to be messed on the respective event nodes when they start? Are events listed somewhere?
ashen wharf
No
rain glacier
Or is the start timezone based?
ashen wharf
UTC
weak copper
Lat rush event happens every Monday
ashen wharf
Unless they tell us otherwise
shrewd totem
Or Swarm Sunday happens every Sunday usually
weak copper
Swarm events happen every Sunday. Beyond that, nothing is guaranteed
Beat me to it @shrewd totem 🤣
rain glacier
Ahh. Explains some. Is Tuesday for tacos and tiering or tearing?
shrewd totem
Domination event after a faction hunt.Not guaranteed or official info but this pattern happened a lot in the past
rain glacier
Ok. Appreciate the info.
Did any of you see the pointlessness of the crystal event...spend 168 to get 25?
I thought they would have had a zero on the end of it.
For 250
barren night
Why give more than you spend
What rebate does that
Here buy our product for 99.99 and we will give you 399.99
rain glacier
Fair point. Should have called it a coupon event.
barren night
It says rebate in the title!
granite zenith
they dont understand what premium means either 😂
ashen wharf
Yeah they use words that are usually the opposite of what it means.
Mainly ignore replicators now
Tbh
Not worth it and they are doing it right before borg part 3 starts so youll need crystal
And what happens when you need crystal?
You buy
Not falling for the trap
robust vapor
Eh. I had an upgrade to do, so just free crystal to me 😆
teal jackal
I spent 850 UC Crystal and got around 120 back. Worth it.
dapper drum
if you have the mats and you plan on spending them its a bonus for you
I gave up waiting for any replicator rebates to spend my mats
carmine lily
never once has the replicator rebate been for any resource i've actually had enough of lying around that i was willing to spend just to get a pittance in return....then again, i've never has enough uncommons or rares to do much of anything with at any given time, so there's that.
ashen wharf
thats why ive ignored them lately until they name it correctly and make you actually "replicate"
Then ill take it but nah gotta take resources from you before a event.
So you are tempted to buy more packs
🙄
carmine lily
they are one of several events i never both with.
earnest hornet
🤦♂️ really, it’s free Materials, for something you would’ve spent anyway, so its like those cash back deals on things like printers, you don’t get the same amount back, you get something back, 🙂
stable cedar
Yeah it was free 123 crystals...better than nothing
abstract gate
Yup, they are a gimme for those in a position to make use of them. Those that aren't haven't lost anything...I upgraded shipyard to 37 a few hours before it popped but I'm not complaining, them's the breaks
ashen wharf
Im not complaining about how much you get
Its just always before an event
That i would be better to wait on
abstract gate
$copely's gotta $cope
ashen wharf
I could potentionally use that 800 crystal during the event rather then before lol
split sequoia
its all a no calendar problem!
abstract gate
Maybe, maybe not...it's a mobile game everything's a gamble
split sequoia
if everyone knew it was coming could've held onto the ucc's a bit longer
then scopely make less money
so no calendar for us!
ashen wharf
ive saved everything for act 3
abstract gate
Uncertainty plus fomo generates sales...there will never be a calendar
ashen wharf
Im pretty prepared
Officer tokens etc
If its lame ill hold out
For mirror mirror in 2023
🤣
abstract gate
Not much to prepare for here...stuck in limbo at 38 waiting on refinery and faction credits to advance. Maxed sally is my best ship and she plus pike crew handles events just fine
small lichen
@abstract gate I agree with what you say regarding sally, away from dark space, a high tier Sally farms events and hostiles with ease.
dapper drum
and is a good base cracker
250k trit repairs and 8 sally can crack 3 ships at home on a 20m base
lunar surge
Will people get another chance to earn shards for the Franklin
When i started that was one of the foest evemts now i it seems like i can only pay for it
floral trail
@twilit imp if I kill ferengi trader and get a transwarp key, yet my keys are at 8/8, what happens?
abstract gate
If you kill it you're in borg space ergo you are max 7/8
floral trail
Not necessarily, I use my 7th token before collecting my daily two.
I always keep a surplus for when there is an event.
abstract gate
Me too...just adjust accordingly
fresh bramble
to be on the safe side don't open the chest until you have less than 8
floral trail
I open it when I am at 6, usually I am in warp on my sixth token.
abstract gate
Adapt
earnest hornet
There is often times that it will actually give you 9.... Shhhh don’t tell scopely.
There have been a few of us that have accidentally claimed it at 7, and noticed that it gives us 2, meaning we have 9
I’ve done it when I just get used to claiming everything, and forget to check how many i have before claiming, 🤫
dapper drum
yeah you can hold 9
and if you claim it while full you get the 100 inert probes
but then when you use them the chest re appears to claim 2 more
neat plover
Are the assimilated ferengii in every Borg system or just certain
abstract gate
Every afaik just super rare
ashen wharf
every
earnest hornet
So does anyone have a screenshot of the Ferengi Trader in the system??
dapper drum
its a survey ship
and its rare
and if you do manage to get it, dont' stick around hitting probes
the moment you hit OPC you will be hunted by other players

Oh, and don’t bother killing them. You won’t receive the artifact in your inventory
Another Scopely fail

@long slate that is false
echo echo
anyone else tired of getting missions for nano that you cant do anything about
shrewd totem
You will get them and need to recall to be able to use it
echo echo
i mean how long do they expect ppl to chase the carrot on the string before we give up .
solemn sequoia
anyone gone to the new systems yet from those?
