[ashen wharf]

Im laughing at big spenders

Sorry to tell yah bro

[viral pulsar]

What a joke Scopely!

[hushed belfry]

Im sad for small spenders that bust their asses for nothing

[inner bear]

What a joke

[abstract gate]

Goodbye

😂

[inner bear]

Los Angeles.....vape yards

[abstract gate]

I got punished for playing this sh it game

[modest mica]

Level 18...what a joke! @loud solar @cunning knot this ain't right, be the voice of the people!

[inner bear]

Dry hit everything until they present a decent award

[cunning knot]

ughhh that makes me sick

[noble oar]

@cunning knot any chance of making a nice youtube movie about these epic rewards?

[peak cave]

@cunning knot you and rev should blow up Scopely’s in box.

[grave shore]

Honestly rewards are a pity

[urban spire]

Event store is a joke, very insulting.

[abstract gate]

You won't be left with a remainder for long.

[grave shore]

Anyone knows when the borg off is will be available in the normal chests?

[kindred sentinel]

Sso whats epic about these?

[glossy narwhal]

@abstract gate Hmm, so I wonder if we should save tokens?

[modest mica]

@kindred sentinel theyre an epic joke! Bad one at that!

[kindred sentinel]

😡

[sick hawk]

very insulting rewards after 3 months of saving them up 💩

[peak cave]

@glossy narwhal probably not, knowing Scopely.

[abstract gate]

@glossy narwhal whenever players decide to save event currencies it almost never works in their favour

[noble oar]

@kindred sentinel the epic thing is the flaming here and on other social media

[spare perch]

3 months of extreme online time. borg, every event takes place. and pack it. And then that now ???!. "An Elite Token" from the monthly pack ??!. Bu l l Sh ......., this is the end of the investment !!.

[radiant flicker]

Haha yea 3 month borg events and rewards for epic token are less than in a 30 day loyality chest 😂😂. A lot was hoping for a real event store with bp etc but scopely better makes us all look like fools fools 😅

[abstract gate]

At 38 my rewards are enough for me to build...nothing, not a goddamn thing 🚮

[brisk berry]

Just horrible event chests.

[wind vapor]

But wait it will be something good! 🤣 🤣 🤣

[abstract gate]

3h+ everyday for that

[noble oar]

Yeah, I'd have preferred a load of loyalty badges over this things..

[ashen wharf]

Buy more packs

[abstract gate]

@noble oar 30 loyalty tokens gives more

[sterile mountain]

wow this is a real damn shame the for 45 epic borg tokens? 7 day loyalty chest gives more

[lost abyss]

Massive letdown, people angry everywhere, deleting posts doesn’t erase that, a good week of refines is better than getting the max six of these chests.

[kindred spire]

I don't normally complain, but for 3mths worth of daily effort for this... must be a joke

[radiant flicker]

Finally collected 279 token but just can use 270 😂😂 i want to know what they think about on such scrap they release .... thats really epic scopely but just epic crap 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑

[frail anvil]

Maybe the 9tokens give a really decent chest?.....prob not though

[balmy grotto]

😡😡😡

[high cypress]

3 month grind for what? Enough crystal to cover 10% of the cost to upgrade my shipyard. The gas is 6% of what I need to upgrade one gun on my B’rel and with the ore I guess I can upgrade one of those useless resource buildings. What a f’ing let down.

[noble oar]

Would it have been that hard to just reuse the "pick what you want" event store from last year with BP's, officer shards, UC,.... ?

[inner stirrup]

What a fcking letdown of a reward....

[undone summit]

https://tenor.com/view/shit-jurassic-part-dr-malcolm-dinosaur-poop-gif-5262492

[ashen wharf]

Welcome to the game you all love

And praise that

"Will get better"

[radiant flicker]

In a good world many players should stopp support game with money now but in scopely world nothing will happend 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑

[light rover]

Less than one tenth of one component of one ship

For three months!!??!!

[radiant flicker]

Offer 279 epic borg token for 30 day loyality chest 😅 someone wanna trade 😂😂

[frozen abyss]

I'll offer the same trade.

[stray tide]

#stopspending

[pure zodiac]

Dumbest payout ever. Especially Fter Ll the hype about how awesome rewards would be.

[compact sinew]

3 months of grind for a shitty frame and then this...........🤣

[frozen abyss]

1/3 the rare in the loyalty chest, but more than double the uncommon, plus all of the recruit tokens and speed ups and latinum

[stray tide]

#stopspending

[pure zodiac]

I think scopely gotta be stoned off thir ass when they think of this

[neon badge]

Was anyone elses Borg chest not very good?

[verbal frost]

wow these rewards were special

AHHA

[frozen abyss]

Define "not very good" @neon badge

[radiant flicker]

@pure zodiac you really think that they had thought about it before release 😅 really dont look like this 🤣

[compact sinew]

What do i do with the nearly 750k of various Borg points or are they just decoration for my inventory?

[stray tide]

#stopspending

[lost abyss]

@compact sinew inventory decoration

[lapis skiff]

Does everyone forget all the stuff we got during the event for each tier?? This is just extra on top. Seriously people, get a grip.

[high cypress]

Scopely you’re 22 days late for April fools jokes. What’s the real reward?

[pure zodiac]

Save them. Not worth spending them.

[abstract gate]

@compact sinew don't worry you'll be able to exchange them for a legendary reward....💩 on a stick

[neon badge]

Not very good as in they don't spark joy

[pure zodiac]

@lapis skiff not the point of what we got. The hype was how great the payout for epic would be.

[ashen wharf]

Lol mods muted me in the galaxy chat

Didnt say anything bad

[lapis skiff]

What hype? All I ever saw was we were getting “something”.

[frozen abyss]

If they don't spark joy, 🚮

[neon badge]

The word epic was used nalyn this chest not very epic

[south arrow]

Every time you think scopley can’t go any lower yet they do EVERY SINGLE TIME

[lapis skiff]

60 uc crystal is like 3 days worth of refinery pulls...that’s somewhat epic. 🤣

[stray tide]

Not even 1 day for me

[ashen wharf]

This wasnt posted on discord what are they talking about

[dry slate]

The three month wait is worth it for this entertainment.

[cursive ivy]

Not Borg related - I had higher hopes 😂

[neon badge]

2x refines for me

[abstract gate]

If the uc was all one type at lvl38 I might just be able to upgrade one of my lower lvl buildings

[nimble crystal]

Worst event ever. Why am I not surprised.

[thorn parrot]

Wow this was so bad. Its not even a joke. Dont claim its an epic reward when its just common trash. Nothing special about it 😡😡😡

[lapis skiff]

If they would have released this event store during the borg events people probably wouldn’t be this upset. The fact it came way after raised expectations imo.

[neon badge]

Plus you'd think epic Borg points would have some Borg related reward

[cursive ivy]

Not quite the Borg Officer tokens and ship blue prints I thought EPIC might bring

[nimble crystal]

Rather claim Corona Virus 🦠 than this

[abstract gate]

Or some epicness...

[thorn parrot]

The mystery prize was a kick to the sack

[sharp stirrup]

I would have settled for being able to redeem 6 epic armada packs. That would have been proper epic word usage

[cursive ivy]

But at least we have Borg points to still use.......

[kindred spire]

How hard would it have been to include Borg shards for crying out loud

[patent pulsar]

That was a let down. Any idea what the future use of these tokens would be for? Kind of want to roll the dice. If the mats had been tokens, that of course would be different.

[visual trench]

So... exchange them all, or only get one pack? And hold on to the rest?

[kindred spire]

Could be a case of damned if you keep them or damned if you cash in

[visual trench]

👀

[knotty birch]

So no Borg shards choice for redeeming tokens from a Borg event. Another let down.

[patent pulsar]

Event after event has "shafus" and it's the Tribbles fault. Then this. Lul.

[visual trench]

I wonder if they may make a officer pack to redeem on a later time?

[ashen wharf]

Atleast we will have keepsakes for borg event to remind us to not do this in the future

[abstract gate]

Don't get your hopes up, hoarding event currencies rarely works out well...just ask the legions of players with batleth tokens

So much for exchanging for something good

[ashen wharf]

You can tell i was preparing for dissappontment

[blazing sedge]

Such a huge let down. not going to spend any more cash on this game. I can't believe THREE F******* months for EPIC Tokens. no BP, no shards, just lame a$$ resources that add up to a maybe two refines. No way i would recommend this game to anyone with this type of rewards. Started out so strong with the events but the final payout was a freaking let down. I put in minimal 6 hours on this game a day. not worth the time or money anymore.

[long arrow]

Shocking rewards store, far from Epic.

[abstract gate]

🔫

[stray tide]

Yes no more spending

[dreamy root]

I bet everyone complaining won’t stop playing or spending money

[noble oar]

As mods are too bussy trolling in galaxy to give an actual answer, where can I listen to the ongoing podcast please?

[feral spear]

“You keep using that word (epic). I do not think it means what you think it means”

[abstract gate]

@noble oar If it's still on-going: https://discord.gg/XpDBR9w

[noble oar]

thanks 🙂

[abstract gate]

Sure thing.

[spare perch]

@ashen wharf you're still good there turn on. what can I say. learned harder!

[restive hazel]

chat

[wispy cloud]

Silly me was expecting maybe chance to buy borg officer shards or something along those lines

[dark valve]

Any idea when a ship XP event will come up? Loads of upgrades pending that 😑

[abstract gate]

Ship xp?

[blazing sedge]

Well scooply if you could fix the constant freezing of the game.

[frozen hinge]

@here message to send to people who decided to offer this epic reward after three months of a Borg event: this is simply shameful, many players dreamed of epic rewards (shard officers, maybe bp vessels ...) and not this offensive reward. we were eagerly awaiting something that would have lifted our spirits in these times of confinement and hangover. a huge disappointment from the players is heard today. please be aware of it. it is said that it will be possible to use these famous 'epic' tokens in the future for other rewards ... I hope that it will be something other than this reward which is lousy compared to the duration of obtaining of these tokens. we want something epic, up to the borg event. please consider this message

[stray tide]

You just need something about ppl wont spend anymore,Otherwise they wont give a shit

[woven belfry]

I agree the rewards were low but does this warrant an @ here tag? I would expect those to be more for announcements and updates or mod messages

[south juniper]

Couldn't agree more the borg epic event rewards were just lame, not epic

[pale kestrel]

Just when I think Scopely can't shock me anymore.....

[stray tide]

Even for scopely this is a big scam

[pale kestrel]

I have 279 epic borg reward tokens. 1 chest is 45. do the math....

[high garnet]

I can't remember the last time I was this disappointed in life

[ashen wharf]

Well atleast i have my meme template anytime "content" is made

[abstract gate]

Epic borg token rewards are a huge let-down.

[outer herald]

Ok what a big let down, where's officer shards, ship bps etc. Three months of hard work for peanuts. Come on 🤔

[frozen abyss]

late to the party, aren't you?

[abstract gate]

Pretty sure this party will be an all-nighter

[rain inlet]

The epic prize sucks

[haughty sphinx]

I totally agree

[fringe pumice]

When are they doing a race to ops event next? Any ideas?

[frozen hinge]

@fringe pumice waiting about that too

[fading adder]

All they want is $$$$$ for shyt rewards😡

[foggy delta]

Hoping this is a prank, and thisvis about to happen.... https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=MXkFgmQ2O-Q

[frosty kayak]

Next event.. whomever spends the most money for 3 months straight will collect tokens that can be cashed in for rewards that’s equal to 20 dollars in the store. Oh wait that just happened.

[abstract gate]

@frosty kayak nope it didn’t

[noble oar]

even 90 loyalty badges would have been preferable to me

[rough frost]

You didn't need to spend anything to got the 279 epic token @frosty kayak

[knotty birch]

Just a load of time to get an Epic reward store...........

Which had one purchase option

What was not Epic or Borg related

[abstract gate]

Plus a lot of rewards from the milestones as well as the alliances. 2 days of faction hunt each week even without an overarching theme? Yes please

[rich grove]

These peanuts rewards are even worse for me. I'm allergic for nuts

[graceful shard]

Let’s petition for faction_hunt_Friday’s. And maybe every Thursday as well

[white river]

These epic borg prizes aren’t epic... they’re just a total let down

[floral trail]

I can't even be bothered to cash in mine.. All those half finished officers I am unable to use.

[white river]

I ain’t cashing this in... I’m at lvl 22 and still get 2* mats 😡

[split plover]

No badges, no bps, no officers ... after 3month and all the expectations scoplay has set this in inacceptable. Not even badges and latinum

[long arrow]

Terrible rewards

[neon badge]

It's like being a kid on Xmas when your dad leaves to get a pack of menthols and 20 years later you find out he's with his other family

[odd nova]

I have to admit I am surprised. Epic tokens to me says epic officer/ship shards, badges etc..

[woven belfry]

Does anyone have a screenshot of the popup from during the arcs when they said the rewards were coming? I cant remember what they said about the epic tokens, e.g. if the frame was the reward and this a bonus

[chilly dust]

Player base is plain dumb af and they know it. They can do anything that nothing will happen

[thorn relic]

It's like being a kid on Xmas when your dad leaves to get a pack of menthols and 20 years later you find out he's with his other family
@neon badge so is that what really happened to Jack Crusher!?

[stray bluff]

How do you find out what are the possible daily events? I have been waiting for a sms build event and they seem to have just stopped

[oak knoll]

When is next jellyfish event?

[shrewd totem]

We dont know sadly and Scopely doesnt share event calendar

[oak knoll]

It would also be nice if I didn't have to spend all my resources and get nothing.

[white river]

I just want another race to ops event

[chilly dust]

Scopely seize the cash

[sly summit]

I think my rewards page is broken. When I try to collect the epic borg rewards I only have an option of collecting some basic resources. What do I need to do to access the proper rewards!?

[inner bear]

Borg Officer shards.....Borg ship blue prints.....get a clue LA

[flint jacinth]

Star Trek Fleece Command

[hardy roost]

Scopely is a crook

[abstract gate]

Im unhappy

[neon badge]

Scopely bent my wookie

[robust vapor]

@woven belfry definitely wasn't frame the reward and this the bonus, other way around. Frame was only for people that completed every milestone.

[slim jasper]

EPIC FAIL! @scopely this is terrible. Greedy greedy greedy you are. We players engage, invest and build communities, and this is how you treat us!!! Will def consider moving on to another game. BTW, in case you're wondering, I am an ops 40 player; I've def done my time in game. This is a joke. Disgraceful! And don't cone back and blame covid-19 either! There is a clear trend with your actions over the past 6 months or so.

[abstract gate]

Yep I used ressource tokens too

Here how you manage to quit: 1. redeem all tokens 2. spend all latinum to alliance 3. leave the ally and get someone to replace you in an instant 4. get raided ->now you cant get back and yiu have no ressources = win

[noble oar]

You forgot the step of going rogue and killing members if top alliances for a few days

[woven belfry]

Thanks @robust vapor

[abstract gate]

@noble oar you wanna die?

Cause I fear we are the same Server😘

[noble oar]

Hehe nope but if after your steps mine is a good extra to encourage one to quit

[novel hollow]

👀

[cloud grail]

Amazing """epic""" rewards.
Yes the triple quotes was necessary. Double quotes just wasn't enough

On the other hand I was prepared to disappointed,
Good to know Scopay has behaved as predicted. Disappointing.

[long slate]

Lol, lol

[tough ore]

Level 20, No 3* Rare Minerals in the """Epic""" rewards. But there were 3* Rares in the Premium rewards I purchased along the way. Guess premium is better than """Epic""" 😳

[long slate]

I told you guys a few days ago

Rewards were actually better

I thought that we would receive a frame

[shrewd totem]

I was expecting an avatar 👀

[abstract gate]

And now we got even less👀

[icy locust]

Rewards sucked scopely, just saying

[icy panther]

When does Final Showdown begin?

[empty lark]

The rewards during the event were much more in line with the amount of effort players put in. So the reward for completing a 3 month long event is basically a frame. A ducking frame.

[earnest quartz]

This is the final showdown 🤣

[shrewd totem]

@icy panther we dont have a date

[icy panther]

The problem is that they used language like “epic” to describe the rewards. That hyped expectations when “epic” is also used to describe very rare/hard to get ships, avatars, officers, and armadas.

Thanks @shrewd totem

[edgy river]

"The final showdown" is going to be as "epic" as the rewards.. Me and my team are not spending another dollar

[rose sphinx]

Why did the points earned for level hostiles change from yesterday to today? It was higher yesterday.

@shrewd totem Do you know?

[shrewd totem]

Ss?

[frozen abyss]

Did you increase your operations level, @rose sphinx ?

[rose sphinx]

Not between yesterday & today.....

[abstract gate]

they reduced the difficulty, 2 secs

ops40

[frozen abyss]

That's nice to see

[rose sphinx]

Yep....that is what I got......alliance member at 41, also had a reduction

[frozen abyss]

We had a level 39 complaining about what he had to hit for his because he rushed his station and let his ships fall behind

He also had the opinion that one crew could do it all and didn't believe in specialized crews for specific tasks

[rose sphinx]

I had gone to level 40 two weeks ago, and knew things would change...

It was tough yesterday but was a bit relieved to see the reduction.

Thank you Scopely!

[shrewd totem]

You should thank Phil for that 😅

He was the one who reported/forwarded it to Devs

[abstract gate]

4 trips to lv43 system is too much 😂

[rose sphinx]

@abstract gate Thank you, Phil!

[sonic belfry]

Why as an ops 40, is their top tier 750 points? I’m a 29, my top tier is 1600 points? My son’s Ops 25 account has 900 points for his top tier.

[abstract gate]

try kill 38 lv41's

[dreamy root]

I’m Ops 21 and mine is 640 points

[frozen abyss]

Ops 30-31 is 750 points, and it stays there from then on

[sonic belfry]

I understand the difference in power and in the level requirement. If, as a 29, I have to kill 80 32’s - is my effort the same as your 38 41’s? No, 80 ships to kill for 20 points each compared to your 38 is disproportionate

[bitter venture]

At 29 I could kill 150 level 32 ships in one run. At level 40 I can do 10 or so level 41s... So it's 4 repairs and trips for me and one for you

[agile flame]

epic token for a frustration realy epic

[sonic belfry]

Right?

[solemn aspen]

did you know...I get more uncommon mats in a SINGLE monthly loyalty chest than ALL the exchanges of epic tokens even with premo rewards.

[solemn shard]

Yeah, premium borg rewards sucked.

[kind roost]

3 month build up ... I don’t think they have consistent standards for rewards or different people set them without understanding the actual value

[solemn shard]

I dont think they have any idea. I was happy for some rss, but what about all the borg points we have and cant do anything with? And for epic tokens the rewards certainly were not epic.

[solemn aspen]

not enough rss for a single component on my horizon not enough mats for a single component on any of my ships.

[obtuse otter]

omg... still? Premium rewards for $60 was better value than any pack I've ever bought

Epic borg rewards are lame, but meh

End of the line

[solemn aspen]

premo rewards were amazing

[obtuse otter]

yeah, Epic kinda implied something... epic

[dreamy root]

I was happy with it

Helped me get my North Star up

[solemn aspen]

epic rewards is less satisfying than auto fellating yourself.

[dreamy root]

Plus I was more than pleased with the rewards from the event

I liked the borg event

[solemn aspen]

you must be low level.

[obtuse otter]

Well, I'm 99% sure there won't be another 3 month event

Domination today, domination tomorrow, domination forever

[solemn aspen]

if there is, their sales will be significantly less. I got 20 mill trit for it, and a single component on the horizon costs 23 million trit.

[proud solar]

Yeah & I'm sure next mining event is around the corner🤦🏻

[dreamy root]

I’m currently lvl 21

But on an older server

[obtuse otter]

Bajoran/Cardassian/Dominion might be worth another 3 month event

[solemn aspen]

exactly you are too low level to know how trash these rewards are.

[dreamy root]

They aren’t the best but it’s still something

They could of made it much worse

[solemn aspen]

i would prefer no reward,

I would prefer 3 realtas

[dreamy root]

So why are u complaining

If you would prefer nothing

Than don’t play

[abstract gate]

Cactus people cant stop after investing several hours per day for months

[solemn aspen]

I actually enjoy the company of my alliance members

[abstract gate]

That too.. The social aspect is the only thing for many to stay

[obtuse otter]

I'd play several hours a day without the Borg arc

[solemn aspen]

if i was in a mute alliance and no voice channel I would have quit.

Scopely doing nothing to keep me around my alliance does that.

[abstract gate]

Haha but cheap, the knowledge that you get nothing even if they make a big event is really deep😂

[obtuse otter]

I'm in a solo alliance. I raid and still building Rom rep to 10m

[dreamy root]

I’ve quit games because I’ve got fed up with the company. I still talk to the people I met still

You don’t have to play to still be friends

[ashen wharf]

Im spending all my stuff next ops event then going on hiatus

[obtuse otter]

There was a lot to do and I really don't care about lame "Epic" rewards

[abstract gate]

I plan to quit, I will use all armadastuff before

[obtuse otter]

@ashen wharf Good luck man. Enjoy your freedom

[abstract gate]

And then my buddy can get up in raiding board, hope enough rares spawn

[ashen wharf]

But will probably log on if i get pinged on something interesting happening

[abstract gate]

I will leave my alliance and since its always full they cant reinvite me anyway so I have to stay out

[obtuse otter]

I slowed my spending months ago (armada launch)
Now with g4, kinda spinning my wheels

[ashen wharf]

yeah i have too since armadas

[abstract gate]

I spent only lifetime, .. "Only"

[ashen wharf]

Two slaps in the face isnt my style

[solemn aspen]

it will take ages to spend my directives.

[ashen wharf]

Im not a masochist

[abstract gate]

Still 3k hours

Or more

[obtuse otter]

I had an epic series of rants back then bc they nerfed refinery and bp drops so obviously

[ashen wharf]

Refinery bug was great dont let anyone tell you otherwise

[abstract gate]

Yea scrum I will only usenepic and rare directives

[ashen wharf]

If the refinery was infinite the game would be so much more interesting

[abstract gate]

You mean it would feel like a game

[ashen wharf]

Ah yes that

[obtuse otter]

I was egregious, but stupid for not spending it all 😔

[dreamy root]

They game would need to be different if it was infinite

[ashen wharf]

not really..

Everyone would have way more fun

[dreamy root]

Everyone would get to max much quicker

[abstract gate]

Max?

[ashen wharf]

Lol no

[dreamy root]

OPS 50

[abstract gate]

Its an endless grind game

[ashen wharf]

Everyone has what theyve mined

[dreamy root]

Ya

[abstract gate]

Noone will manage ti get to level 50 with refinery.. Noone woukd even manage to get ops40

[dreamy root]

But if it was infinite they could

[knotty birch]

If they mess up the refinery again at some point I shall be making a point of spending it all real quick!

[abstract gate]

No

😅

You can only mine like 300k-500k per day

[obtuse otter]

They made 40+ pay to advance on purpose to slow the whales down

[dreamy root]

I’m not saying it would be done in a month. Instead of taking years. It might take 1-2 years

[abstract gate]

The game is out since 1,5-2years and no f2p even managed to get to ops39

[ashen wharf]

Even when it happened before i had 3 mill each used

And got like 8k

Of each

[abstract gate]

And ops 40costs more than ops1-39combined

[ashen wharf]

That wouldnt do much

Id still need par trit dil

[abstract gate]

Imagine grinding one year for one ops level

[ashen wharf]

Theres literally no reason to not have it infinite

[dreamy root]

Then p2w people will have the par tril and dil

[ashen wharf]

Except make people pay

[dreamy root]

And there would be low levels who go p2w too

There are still going to be people who p2w and have a shit ton of resources

[ashen wharf]

yes but you would only need to raid the spenders then...

Unless you love hitting non spenders

[abstract gate]

And? Thats 3% of all players who can pay thousands

And they are unraidable for non-spenders

[dreamy root]

They will raid them. Then you raid them

It’s not like only the spenders will have a lot

[ashen wharf]

They do now

What does it matter

Atleast you would be able to have stronger defenses

If you used all your stuff

[abstract gate]

Yea and cracking a whale costs a fortune too

If he has jelly abd enterpise I say goodnight

[dreamy root]

Ya. We have a person on our server who’s lvl 41 and just raids everyone because he can

[ashen wharf]

atleast you dont have 50's

[abstract gate]

And lv41 is still not average whale

He couldnt even scratch a good whale base

[obtuse otter]

whales on my server slowed down a lot

[ashen wharf]

Ours too

Top guy is a millionaire and hes stopped at 45

[obtuse otter]

why should I spend my piddily ass few thousand when whales spend that much in a week?

[dreamy root]

Because you can and you like the game

[ashen wharf]

nah

[dreamy root]

Otherwise you wouldn’t still be playing

[abstract gate]

Haha I hate the game

[ashen wharf]

I dont like the game enough to spend thousands

I like the game enough to play

if that makes sense

[abstract gate]

It was a mistake to install it

Atleast for me

[dreamy root]

Ya. You don’t have to spend it you don’t want too

But without whales. There would be no game

[abstract gate]

Lol.cactus

[ashen wharf]

Thats not true lol

[abstract gate]

You know that they made billions with this game?

[ashen wharf]

Thats just what they tell you

[dreamy root]

They totally made billions

[obtuse otter]

I'll get the elite monthly, maybe a little more like borg premium, but that's about all

[abstract gate]

You can google it

Its one of the best paying off games of the world

And its crap

😂

[ashen wharf]

Just get that brand name and you can make alot of money

[dreamy root]

Ok. Your right there

If it crap. Why play

If you have food that is crap. Do you still eat it

No

[abstract gate]

You need time.to find outnits crap

[dreamy root]

You take your first bite and you just hate it. You aren’t going to keep eating it

Unless you had nothing else

[ashen wharf]

Food is essential

[dreamy root]

But you have many of other games you can play

So why do we through our moldy food if food is essential

[ashen wharf]

Digital goods that you dont own

And wont own when the game shuts down

[abstract gate]

You can play and have fun in lower levels, you do so months of playing and the crap is lurking in the shadows waiting to catch you after you hit ops28

[dreamy root]

You payed money for it. So ehy through it away

[ashen wharf]

I just cant imagine the people that are 50 right now

If the company claims bankruptcy from this covid stuff

All that money is gone

[abstract gate]

I will never install or touch a mobile game again after this😬

[ashen wharf]

🤣

[abstract gate]

Haha they quit before cause they dont get new content

[ashen wharf]

This would be the perfect time to ditch and run

If their profits go down

[abstract gate]

Hmhm what will be their next game?

Starfleet came after walking dead dropped

[ashen wharf]

Walking dead game got destroyed

Only russians play it now

[abstract gate]

Same will happen here

[ashen wharf]

Im suprised they even dared to make another game after that

[abstract gate]

I know companies like scopely

They make a loop

Every 2years they dump the old.game for a new

I already played kabam games😂 same tactic there.. Same games

[ashen wharf]

I did too

Did you play the star wars game

[abstract gate]

No, but I think some before

[ashen wharf]

I loved that game and they shut it down in a year

Star wars uprising

They sold their company out after that

[abstract gate]

Yep

Did the same with.other games too

[ashen wharf]

Completely scammed everyone

[abstract gate]

Thats every company with several mmos

[ashen wharf]

They did the same method as this game

Max level was 30 for a while

Then released level 50

Then 2 months later announced game is shutting down

It was my first time using discord joining a alliance

Miss those guys

[abstract gate]

Haha yea.. Started with.mmos over 10years ago and never forgot one of my buddies

Said 4-5years ago never mmo, its all scam.. But got bored and had a phone and..

[ashen wharf]

welcome to another arc

🤣

[abstract gate]

I didnt expect to fall agaim for it😂

[ashen wharf]

This is my final one though

No more mobile for me

[abstract gate]

Yep mine too

Even single players are scam now

[ashen wharf]

Just here to see it succeed or fail

[abstract gate]

My last week, then Im free

[ashen wharf]

Honestly the support from kabam was better

So i give kabam their props on that

If they messed up they gave you stuff that help you progress alot

[abstract gate]

Had already goodbye talks with some guys.. Was pretty funny.. To see how you meet good people in such a game..

Yea kabam did even server merges

[ashen wharf]

Well hope you have a good freedom dont fall for it again

🤣

I may end sometime this year i think

[abstract gate]

Would rather throw the phone into the sea

[ashen wharf]

weve had like 14-18 ppl quit from my alliance

Ranging from like 35-42 levels

If they left theres no hope for me

For enjoyment

[abstract gate]

Most 35+ in my server still play.. Only like 5 quit in total.. Thats a pretty decent score

But everyone below quits now

Guess its time to sleep.for me now😅👋

[ashen wharf]

night

[frozen hinge]

and now the clone event, same rewards same rules🎉

[solemn aspen]

Come and collect your "go **** yourself" reward pack, face slaps included per purchase.

[robust vapor]

Woot, 54 uncommon ore 🎉

You guys care way too much btw. I was also expecting and hoping for something.. more.. but at the end of the day IDGAF, just a game 😅
I'm more concerned about the mysterious later redemption option.. what is it? When is it? Is there a limit? Will it be better it worse?? Tell me all or nothing 😭

[noble oar]

I'm just going to keep my stuff for the later redemption...the current reward is a joke so if the late reward is even worse I won't lose much anyway

[robust vapor]

I need the Dil.. but what if they give a store later? 😅 But then what if it's worse or restricted to X tokens only 😂

[south juniper]

What later redemption??

Too late damn it

[noble oar]

gifts now has a borg tab between resources and alliances

[tepid isle]

Fractured Empire event... must have Fractured Empire event.... please 🙏

[robust vapor]

@south juniper would you trust it to be any better or even worthwhile anyway though? 😬 Surely they wouldn't do a much improved version after everyone spends, the uproar...

Last bit here though, later redemption 🤷‍♂️ but so vague and unhelpful 😂

[noble oar]

Well 60 UC and 12 rares aren't completely useless but I'll just hope the borg tab might have useful things which I can't get in a few days of refining

[robust vapor]

Just under 5m Dil for me also, I need that too 🤷‍♂️ Scopely needs some good Dil events, sitting on 1b steel plus another 3b in tokens now, and I stopped raiding ages ago 😑

[meager galleon]

I’d like your steel please

[lost abyss]

@noble oar one set of refines, already matched most of the uc, and halfway or better on the rares.

[robust vapor]

You're not the only one kaution, but I don't just give it up for anyone 😁 need someone who wants to swap Dil for steel..

[meager galleon]

Sure

How much would 50M dil get me?

[robust vapor]

I'd probably give up 500m 🤷‍♂️ but I wouldn't trust any of you guys on here 😂

[teal jackal]

@robust vapor I'll trade you 500 mil Dil for 2 billion par. 😛

[robust vapor]

Daaayam star, you should just share that love around 😮

Totally balanced resources at 35 😢

[teal jackal]

That's my Galaxy sharing. They loooove to share. 😛

[robust vapor]

My galaxy love to share too, I'm just too slow to join in 😅

[crystal sonnet]

I feel the community is quite disappointed in the same way.

• borg arc over all was quite cool
• the tribble event did have too much luck factor and only a few are able to get the 10/10 even unlocked
• the marketing did generate an impression the epic borg tokens will be something valuable
• the delivery did not match those expectations
• the "epic borg" packages are neither "epic" nor have something to do with "borg"
• it is unclear if those tokens should get saved right now, as there is some promise of "future use" but without details.

So a lot of communication FROM the community TO scopely

But no official announcement or reaction so far FROM scopely.

• give a gift-package with REALLY cool stuff to the people which had the 3 arc steps done
• open up a event-store with all the other borg points which were required to even get the epic-tokens
• communicate at least "we hear you, working on a solution"

But just NOTHING is even more disappointing

[solemn aspen]

I propose 5 monthly loyalty chests, 2 extra for emotional damages rendered unto players.

[low berry]

@crystal sonnet you are joking right ??

They don’t care

[solemn aspen]

these 5 chests should hold us over until the Scopely team can come up with reasonable rewards, after all they had over 3 months to think about i t.

[flat fog]

Well I already spent my epic token, if they had more to it later it will be double punitive

[low berry]

But idea of 2-3 loyalty chests is very good !!!!

[solemn aspen]

I thought 5 was reasonable, and 10 if you spent them.

1 30 day has more uncommon than all the chests combined with premo rewards.

[low berry]

Well 3 would be allright also

[solemn aspen]

shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[hardy parcel]

And f#$k all communication from scopely to the community.

Situation normal. <@&509690795536941056> hiding instead of addressing the issue.

[solemn aspen]

effort required for a 30 day loyalty chest, is but a fraction of the effort that was required for the borg milestones. If you want an even ratio of effort invested to reward, I would then suggest 18 monthly chests. But I thought my offer of just 5 was extremely generous.

[noble oar]

To be fair we did get monthly milestone rewards so I'd be happy with 3. Event store would be nicer obviously

[raw zenith]

So.....had there been no borg event and we got multiple fh, bfg, even mining and domination events, everyone would have just ignored them and not participated?

[hardy parcel]

I disagree. I want the "special" reward that was promised.

I get the impression they actually had no idea what to give and just threw a pack together at the last minute.

@raw zenith I would have ignored all of the donination events for example.

We all put in extra effort in our alliance at least

[robust vapor]

I put in effort for the milestones, would do it again, would do it for less 😴

[chilly venture]

At this point it is clear that the "mysterious" rewards at the end of three months of grinding was supposed to be the uncommon borg frame. When they saw that it wouldn't cut it for people that grinded 3 months long, they hastily concoted a quick additional reward but...

[hardy parcel]

The worst part is the total lack of communication.

[raw zenith]

I thought rewards for each milestone were great

[frozen abyss]

Milestone and premium rewards were great, which is why we expected the epic rewards to be even better, with a name like epic.

[chilly venture]

I don't really mind, milestones rewards were good by scopely standards, premium rewards were very good bang for the bucks (still for scopely standards), so at this point anything more is just extra for me

[raw zenith]

I’m not happy with the reward using epic tokens, but I do all events bc that’s my favorite part of the game

The premium rewards were great. All the mats and rss tokens

[frozen abyss]

Agreed

[hardy parcel]

Don't get me wrong.

The Borg events, missions, milestone rewards were great. That's not in question.

The point is they advertised a special reward for the epic tokens so we all put extra effort in to make sure we did everything.

Then gave us a steaming pile of 💩

[raw zenith]

I would have done them even with no promise of an extra reward. But that’s me

[hardy parcel]

I usually take a day off now and then. Not all of us can play 24-7

But the point is they promised it. And hyped it with in game splash screens.

[raw zenith]

Well no one is happy with it. I have a problem when ppl say the events themselves were not worth it. I mean how many faction hunts did we get? I have a ton of faction credits now and officer exp not to mention ultra recruit shards

[robust vapor]

Ugh, officer XP.. I'd trade it in for a 10th on ship XP..

[potent temple]

When does this borg finale event start??

[hardy parcel]

Yup, I agree.

So I'm gonna keep complaining until we get what was promised.

[raw zenith]

Yea ship exp needs to be given out more

[robust vapor]

They didn't promise anything more than a mystery reward..

[hardy parcel]

@robust vapor they promised special

[raw zenith]

Grinding ship exp on a miner is a brutal process

[robust vapor]

I'm sitting on I believe 35m officer XP, 0 ship XP 😑

[hardy parcel]

What we recieved was an insult

[raw zenith]

I have 16-17m officer exp lol

But I maxed Chen during events and promoted some that req lots of exp

Going to save ultra shards for the day borg officers hopefully added to chests

[robust vapor]

Omg, so far back.. mystery prize, no mention of it being good 😋

[weak copper]

Borg arc and all the rewards throughout it were great. The issue is that they terribly mismanaged everyone’s expectations for the Epic Token rewards. That chest looked like something thrown together in 5 minutes as an afterthought

[hardy parcel]

@robust vapor

Special

[chilly venture]

@raw zenith officer's availability is another sore point : why can't we have the same officers in the ultra and premium recruits (and gold trophy) ? Moreau and co have been added months ago in ultra, but still not available in premium. Why Zhou and some other aren't available ? Why Borg officers were not immediately added in recruit ? Where is Jaylah ? etc... The list is endless

[hardy parcel]

More to the point why are all the best officers feds

[raw zenith]

I don’t know what criteria is for them in chests

Well the game will always favor feds bc it’s Star Trek

[hardy parcel]

No it's a game it needs to be balanced.

[raw zenith]

I agree. But nothing I can do

[chilly venture]

I know you don't, nodoby does 🙂 The point is, initially you had the same officers in premium and recruit, albeit whith different odds. And faction recruits was a subset based on factions. Eveything was coherent. Now the whole thing is a mess...

[robust vapor]

Eh, Scopely special is pretty "special"

[hardy parcel]

Well you can do more than me, and not perpetuate the idea that it is ok by arguing feds should be better. 🤷‍♂️

[raw zenith]

I would have sep ultra packs for each faction. Fed ultra pack rom, etc so you could choose which ones you want to try and get. The faction recruit chests only have a handful. I want sep ones that contain only the entire set or rares and epic officers for a given faction in them

And make the reg ultra pack all non faction specific officers

Gotta get ready for work

[noble oar]

The events were nice though I wouldn't have done a bunch due to rewards/time required if I didn't have hopes for the epic rewards

[hardy parcel]

Here's an idea for their next money spinner - alternative crew names, portraits and bios. Want a romulan version of spock or pike- buy a pic and name change

[robust vapor]

Ship skins!

[spare perch]

Wooo is PANIC ......, is the Borg Shop a program bug ??. If so ... I love you again ...😍

[hardy parcel]

What? You may be happy with scraps for 3 months work. The rest of us ain't so impressed

[abstract gate]

With decent ships most borg related events took 1-2hrs each over 72 days...over 100 hours of grinding for less than you get in a 30 day loyalty chest. We were sold on the promise of a "special" reward from "epic" tokens. Everything said up until yesterday's reveal lead us to believe that we would receive a meaningful boost to our progression in return for our hard work. We were robbed instead...and due to having copius unusable raw rss dumped into our stations many more will be robbed again.

Scopely your rewards are bad and you should feel bad.

You ran a great marathon. You faltered a little in the first few miles and almost hit the wall but you regrouped and forged on...then 3 feet from the finish line you tripped on your own shoe laces and faceplanted so hard you somehow ended up back at the starting blocks.

[teal beacon]

Maybe the epic borg chests are bugged 😂😂scopely pls fix that 🤣

Oh I think I go and buy a no more money from me chest with the tokens 🤑

[abstract gate]

Scopely has pulled some shady 💩 and dropped the ball before but I have never seen this level of backlash from the community before. I hope you're taking notes scopely.

The pre release migration debacle didn't rile us up this much and we were piiiiissed about that.

[noble oar]

Wait for the server merges

[abstract gate]

They keep this 🐂 💩 up and there won't be any servers left to merge

[robust vapor]

Yes, excellent idea, everyone leave the game in protest; I can finally win all the leaderboards and coast through the game 😎

[shrewd totem]

😂

[abstract gate]

You want a true measure of how 💩 ty it is? Not even the mods are defending it.

[solemn aspen]

it smashes U2's record of being the biggest pile of 💩 ever

[noble oar]

Well I think the flaming scopely unleashed had negated covids climate benefits

[swift widget]

Sorry if this has been discussed to death but what is Epic about these very poor “Epic Borg Rewards”. Not for the first time I’m feeling disappointed and let down. Is it bugged reward pack or some other form of incompetence?

[raw zenith]

it is what it is sadly

[swift widget]

Okay so not a mistake or bug. They really need to change the event splash screen adverts to set the correct level of expectations. Very sad indeed.

[modest rivet]

https://tenor.com/view/game-trailer-expectations-gif-11140888

how scopley see epic rewards to how they actually are

[sonic belfry]

Does anyone have a ss off that splash screen promising epic rewards? I neglected to grab one for posterity.

[floral trail]

There is a screenshot posted above of the "Mystery Reward"

[sonic belfry]

Thank you sir

[tardy salmon]

Epic rewards not so epic. 3 months of work for something you can get in a day of refinery and through the swarm event. This was a slap in the face

[vernal bronze]

I feel bit bad being raged about lack of "Rewards" that they hyped up, but good to know that others are raged. To call this epic and urge you to save every token. People spent a lot of time or money or both to make sure they kept up w/ it. I liked the event for once

[thorn parrot]

Thats the whole point. They pushed us to finish big in events like the reward was something good. It was lackluster. Like ur boss at work pushing workers to meet a 3 month quota promising a huge bonus for finishing on time and then handing everyone a $10 bonus when they succeeded

While he pulls in a $10,000 bonus from his boss

Some of us spent extra money to make sure we finished full events for this special mystery reward. Just to find out it was common junk

[dapper drum]

I expected to be thoroughly disappointed and was not let down

[hardy parcel]

I expected to be disappointed, but somehow I'm even more disappointed

[abstract gate]

Whether it was time or money we all spent heavily on this event. The milestone rewards were good, the premium even better so we were expecting something in keeping with that level of escalation.

[prisma geode]

☝️ Scopely will do nothing about it. They will pretend everything is fine and go on business as usual.

[abstract gate]

I dunno, even their die hard apologists are calling them out this time.

[chilly dust]

What strikes me the most is that the some people still think that this was pure incompetence, not listening to the players, Bla, bla bla... No! It was intended to be like this from the start, it's a strategy, they know it won't affect the game, because no one will leave, they act like dictators because the people are dumb

[sonic belfry]

So, I slept on my disappointment, frustration, and desire to write my feedback down so scopely could actually receive it... woke up this morning realizing that they just don’t care. They must have had some very profitable months during these three Borg arc, not only in cash spent but also in screen time spent in game. They did tease us with the promise of a special rewards chests throughout the three arcs, and we receive a Borgafied frame and the special rewards chests, 12 rare, 60 unc, 73M steel 21M tri and 2M Dil - that is my special reward? For three months I spent more time in game doing my best to complete every single milestone and daily event... then this. I surmise that scopely has gotten what they want from their player community, our money and our time in game. That’s what they want, we gave it to them, and this is our reward. To say I’m disappointed is a monumental understatement.

[twin thorn]

The posted these epic rewards which was absolutely terrible then had the cheek to upload a satisfaction survey today! Crazy! Are you satisfied with the game... answer no, what are you not satisfied with... well for 1 the epic Borg rewards for 2 the terrible drop rate in the refinery.... there is a pile more I won’t bore you with but yeah spend 3 months and more money than I normally would to ensure I met the requirements for something epic and all I get is epic disappointment

[abstract gate]

Hmm...I haven't had a survey yet. Ballsy of them to release one after this clusterfudge

[dapper drum]

scopely has 3 states

SNAFU

TARFUN

FUBAR

[twin thorn]

Yup came this morning, I grabbed my cup of tea and let them have it

[abstract gate]

Tarfun is a new one on me, pm me meaning please (I'm assuming it'd get deleted here)

[dapper drum]

things are really effed up now

[abstract gate]

Ah 👍

[dapper drum]

the state between SNAFU and FUBAR

[abstract gate]

They skipped that one

[sonic belfry]

Id be interested to know the “official” definition of those acronyms can @dapper drum

[dapper drum]

Situational Nominal All F'd Up

F'd Up Beyond All Recognition

Things Are Really F'd Up Now

[abstract gate]

@twin thorn never got survey

@sonic belfry just wait to the next time they pull this crap nobody will give a rats butt about it

[sonic belfry]

What am I waiting for?

[inner bear]

Scopely is Chad Vape from Los Angeles

[agile flame]

I think was supose to be 1 epic token for the pack.... and limited to 45 pack at this moment... and the programmer did some misunderstand... so this reward wold be at least good

[glacial token]

Are the Borg events now over? Or is there a final piece to come?

[prisma geode]

The finally was EPIC!

[languid cove]

The problem with the packs is that scopely drastically over estimates the value of resources vs materials. 800k dil is a lot per token. There is no way the plan was to hand out 30m dil. We are just upset the uncommon was pretty low and it didn't have borg components or other things like relo tokens to add value.

[lost abyss]

So, it was Scopely Right

[prisma geode]

I could blow 30M dilli in one research

[languid cove]

If there were 5 of each borg shard or a bunch of nanoprobes it would be easier to take. I'm suprised it wasn't like the old sepratist store and let me pick what i want instead of getting a bunch of parsteel i don't want or need

Yes yes, 30 mill dil isn't a lot if you spend thousands of dollars on ships, but it's a good chunk for 90% of the players. 4m? thats a bit light

[prisma geode]

Think I ended up with 8M or 6M dilli from the packs.

[sage nova]

are they still doing ship xp and officer xp events? havent had one in a month

[lean meteor]

@twilit imp Will there be a Race to Ops event anytime soon? Been a long time since we had that! 😃

[devout talon]

there was a race to OPS at the end of each arc. I'm a bit sad they didn't do it aagain

[rose sphinx]

@abstract gate So the event went back up again to 40-43 hostiles? There is no way I can complete it- need to hit 750 hostiles to complete. ‘sigh’.

[abstract gate]

Mine didn't 🤔

[rose sphinx]

Mine did....

[abstract gate]

What's your server?

[rose sphinx]

15

[abstract gate]

Kk

[lapis idol]

@abstract gate kill miner ships

You only need to kill 125 level 40

[vernal raft]

Are OfficerXP events gone and replaced by officer shard events or are xp events still a thing?

[alpine snow]

Would be nice to get an answer to that @vernal raft

[languid cove]

We have had several officer Xp events over the past week. If i remember correctly they are more random per server than previously

[earnest citrus]

I can confirm I see an officer xp event right now

[teal jackal]

My servers still has officer xp events. Haven't seen the new officer shard ones (S23)

[jagged inlet]

Happening right now buddy

Server EU147

[meager galleon]

Very odd that some servers are on the old ones

[jagged inlet]

Server been around since Oct2018

[meager galleon]

EU140

[jagged inlet]

Could use an event like that right now

[alpine snow]

Only upgrade event on mine

[abstract gate]

You're cashing your trophies? Next cow event will be rough for you

[bleak shoal]

What is that ? Kidding ???
Gold Trophy recrut Event..... 5 boxes opened...and this Trash is the result

[simple spear]

Crucible was trophies? I can't remember

[rare violet]

Could have been worse^^

[abstract gate]

Various trophies yeah, those alliance ones from the alliance milestone event and golds from bfg

[simple spear]

Ah yes. Silver was money

[abstract gate]

Yup and the p2w ones

[simple spear]

I wanna know how crucible and sepratist lost to faction hunt for vote event 😭

[abstract gate]

Collective idiocy

[simple spear]

Faction is good and all but those others are infinitely awesome

[abstract gate]

Fh is great when balanced out by events with actual rss and materials

The uc rewards in fh are an afterthought at best and there's zero rss to replace what's used

[simple spear]

I just like the choose your rewards stores. Let's you get what you need most...rss...bps...officers

Whatever you lack in

[abstract gate]

Faction credits are great but you still need rss and materials to build and upgrade those ships you're earning them for

[simple spear]

My server has the new solo events that reward tritanium and crystal for everything so that helps

[abstract gate]

Yeah pick n mix event store should be the gold standard instead of these arbitary bs things we're getting

[simple spear]

Very surprised the epic borg tokens weren't used for such a store

[north wraith]

I didnt use any of the Epic Borg tokens. Not worth it imo

[simple spear]

Would have made perfect sense

[abstract gate]

Would have been a winning move for scopely

Nobody can complain about rewards they choose themselves

[simple spear]

Could have put vidar bps for people missing 5-10 of them...could put borg officers for people missing a shard here and there...

[abstract gate]

They might complain about the amount they can choose but the content would at least be above reproach

[simple spear]

Better than the half a 30 day loyalty box

Anyway missed opportunity for sure

[abstract gate]

Even if that bs was planned from the beginning a cursory glance at their social media and our expectations would have told them it might be an idea to change course.

[simple spear]

Couldn't begin to tell you what they were thinking. The final two milestones of premium rewards were way better. And they costed $4 essentially

[abstract gate]

They will probably try to monetise this failure too somehow

[hardy parcel]

Yup. Expect epic token packs soon

[abstract gate]

We were left with 9 epic tokens and a promise of opportunities to spend them in the future...so yeah 100€ epic token packs for sure

[knotty birch]

A big 💩thrown in your face going by what 270 tokens got you. What can you expect for 9 tokens? 10k parsteel?

[simple spear]

Really don't know what to expect with it at all

[patent vortex]

So, are we getting more for the borg Finale (like a conclusion storyline, events, ect) or was that it? Anyone know? I'm debating whether or not to hold out hope for another 2x Borg ultra pull or use my 9.5k Ultra recruit tokens

[ashen wharf]

asking what everyone is asking

Just wait and see

[rose sphinx]

There will be another Borg arc, from what I understood

[rose sphinx]

@abstract gate Thank you!

[abstract gate]

Fixed?

[frail anvil]

Ooh another borg arc? Cant wait😑😑😑

[visual trench]

Ops 27 = 100 x lvl 30 = 140 gold trophies
Ops 28/29 = 80 x lvl 32 = 160 gold trophies
Ops 30 = 38 x lvl 34 = 180 gold trophies
Can someone please explain the logic behind this in the battle for glory event?
Why does lower levels need to work so much harder for less rewards towards the alliance LB?

[devout talon]

It's not exactly harder, at 27 you should likely have a kumari in the range of 300k+. Your targets are opponents that are in the range of 80-100k strength.
It is perhaps a bit more tedious, buit definitely not harder. At level 30, your targets are in the range of 500k+ and you should have a faction ship, which cost a lot more resources and time to repair.

Also this of all is the easiest one to do idle, just park your kumari in the appropriate augment space and be back after a couple hours 🙂

[visual trench]

So you think it’s totally fine to have such a huge difference in points needed? Not to mention the contribution to the ALB.

[solemn sequoia]

points needed != effort spent on finishing the event

[white garden]

Trade half a million tritanium in repair costs for parsteel and a couple dozen rss is not a fair trade for most.

[rose sphinx]

@abstract gate Yes, Sir....thank you very much!

[white garden]

There’s much to like but 5 events total? 7 is needed because of the different ways to earn.

[weary raft]

In Battle for Glory, the system rewards you more the higher your Ops level

[solemn aspen]

but the faction hunt it's pretty trash rewards in rss till maybe ops 30? I still do it the officer xp is great. the faction creds are awesome, but lately there have been more events with steel rewards than solid trit reward events. THe only one i can think of is fractured empire that had truly amazing rss rewards.

and no announcement from scopely still that's just nuts to me.

Also any compensation they give players costs their company 0 dollars, because the currency in which the players play the game with doesn't ****ing exist. they could literally give evyone 50k uc of each 2 billion lat, and 10k rare g3, and it still would not cost them a single cent.

[barren night]

And y’all would complain that it wasn’t enough 😉

[cosmic sage]

Donination and swarm event give trit rewards.

[teal jackal]

Base raiding gives more trit rewards

[ashen wharf]

I mean games still in beta

So beta players should get something before the games released 🤣

[teal jackal]

Beta is being generous. Maybe closer to Alpha.

[glacial token]

Are the Borg now concluded, or is there a final chapter to come?

[noble oar]

The epic borg finale is soon tm

[empty lark]

It will be EPIC

[hardy parcel]

Yeah, sure

[agile flame]

epic reward... epic frustration

[abstract gate]

Epic let down

[robust vapor]

Long and arduous, perfect fit 😂

[hardy parcel]

Epic disappointment

[drowsy garden]

EPIC FAIL!!!!!

[frank knot]

Will they be bringing back officer and ship xp events or are the officer shard and ship upgrade events the new norm does anyone know?

[hardy parcel]

More to the point scopely doesn't care. No apologies, no changes.

Well. No cash from me.

[frank knot]

Just wish they’d confirm things as do you spend your ship and officer xp now or wait for events to come back...

[inner loom]

I see ship and officer xp events nearly every day on server 18

[raw zenith]

god this is still going?

[nova valley]

Still going.

[obtuse otter]

How long did the egregious exploiter thing last? That was more fun

I was egregious and I enjoyed every extra refine. No complaints when they clawed it back either. Still fun

[noble oar]

Clark I'm enjoying the complaints more than the epic rewards

[frozen abyss]

https://media.tenor.com/images/eac1e77fa25548c0fa944c917ecaaa8a/tenor.gif

[noble oar]

Could it be that the complaining is...epic?

[tidal zinc]

What happened to the burst events, they were great!

Oh yeah and Lets make Epic great again!

[drowsy garden]

Clark I'm enjoying the complaints more than the epic rewards
@noble oar yeah me too lol

[fathom shale]

I think the rewards during Borg event were great, and they never Said that the Epic Tokens will give Epic rewards. And besides of that, iam Happy for everything i get. We even receive the "Corona Gifts" constantly. So iam fine.

[simple charm]

Nope. Disagree - hope the corona gifts don’t gloss over how poor the rewards for diligently completing every task for 3 MONTHS were. It was a complete disappointment

[robust vapor]

Yep, I got absolutely no benefits from doing all of those events and milestones, certainly didn't do them for the resources, materials, ship and new daily rewards, officers, premium rewards or anything. Did it all just for this vague mystery redemption. promise.
Yep. That sounds right 🤔

[abstract gate]

Stockholm syndrome

I've never said the milestone rewards in each arc were bad (repeatedly said the opposite in fact). What I and many others are saying is we were promised a "special" reward in exchange for "epic" tokens...what we got was neither special nor epic

[ashen wharf]

Sounds like caps is a masochist

I bet he likes refinery too

[abstract gate]

Pays out better than epic tokens

[agile jolt]

How do we know what events are upcoming? Anyone ?

[ashen wharf]

you dont

They are announced 5 minutes before they start

[noble oar]

Order nowhere will you see me claim the monthly rewards were bad but when I get spammed for weeks about a mysterious reward for epic tokens 2-3 days of refinery and some rss isn't what most of us were thinking of. Scopely shouldn't have hyped it

[robust vapor]

You got spammed? I barely saw anything about it 😬

[ashen wharf]

The splash screen popped up everyday for 2 months

So yes

[robust vapor]

Mostly it was people here asking what the tokens were for the was spammed for me..

[ashen wharf]

Lol

[robust vapor]

Mine didn't pop-up nearly that much to be honest 😂

[noble oar]

I had it for weeks multiple times a day with how often I had to restart the app due to bugs

[abstract gate]

2 ways they could have done it better. 1, not named the tokens epic (mystery, bonus or something instead). 2, made an actual event store and allowed us to pick and mix our rewards as we saw fit.

[obtuse otter]

Do people actually pay attention to the splash screens?

I sure don't

[ashen wharf]

i see them but not much else other then that

[abstract gate]

The splash screen coupled with the naming of the tokens as epic felt very misleading with hindsight

Also to those saying the special reward is ok, I can only assume you aren't much past lvl30. For some 60 uc might seem decent but the uc and rare weren't scaled for level...for me at 38 60 uc is just a slap in the face

[ashen wharf]

and the par wont even get you a building upgrade

The trit will get you like maybe 7 epic ship repairs

[robust vapor]

They named one of the points epic, I didn't think anything different of them compared to the other two sets 😂
I must be lucky with the restarts though, I must restart just to make sure I'm not lagging and missing any station taps..

[noble oar]

I had to restart often due to frozen chat etc

[abstract gate]

Yep a cheap building upgrade for me is 300 uc and 200mil par

[ashen briar]

So when is the borg finale coming??? Am I paying that upgrade on ops or not? You're killing me

[noble oar]

And even at oos 31 60 uc is a joke, need 1800 uc for just one saladin part

[ashen wharf]

How are your buildings so cheap

Im no where near you and mine are hitting 300mil already lol

[nova valley]

it's steel generater numer 6 🙂

number

lol kidding. mine are around the 250-300 mil depending on building at ops 33.

i can't remember what i just spent to start ops 34. it was a ton.

[abstract gate]

@ashen wharf that's an example of a cheap one like engine tech (research might be a factor too)

[nova valley]

research DOES affect displayed values, so instead of the "rebate" type research, someone's research could be lowering the cost of upgrading.

[rough frost]

I m op 34, and most of my building are under 100 million steel

[ashen wharf]

Sounds like i need to rush levels

[robust vapor]

Yeah, no one believes me about the several benefits in pushing ops..

More resources, more materials, better rewards, better bonuses in research and modules..

[ashen wharf]

but i only ops when we have ops up events

That give stuff

No point doing it if ops event isnt up

[abstract gate]

This helps...a lot

[robust vapor]

I did one of those for 35, mostly just lucky timing. But that was the event that bumped the requirements up if you went to an even number, so a bunch went up and then didn't get the first milestone still 😑

[ashen wharf]

Yeah the last ops event was weird

It would say ops up twice then reset your milestones after doing it once

[robust vapor]

It was good for me, bad for others 😂

[ashen wharf]

[robust vapor]

My reqs didn't bump as I only went up one level, so got a milestone still 🤷‍♂️

If I was 35 already going to 36, would have gotten nothing 😬

[stray copper]

Is it too much to ask for a fractured empire event

[noble oar]

We could hope for a nice weekend event

[solemn aspen]

how bout a few free monthly loyalty chests.

like 5 2 extra for punitive damages.

[ionic wren]

separatist?

[frozen abyss]

What if we let the players trade in their epic Borg reward tokens for loyalty badges, say at a 3-to-1 ratio? 279/3=93, so just over 3 of the monthly packs. That would definitely appease people.

But that would never happen... Those rewards would truly be epic...

[dapper drum]

its already done and over with move along

[tranquil crater]

Well if you say so Hobo Phil

[ashen wharf]

when they shut down the game randomly you wont be saying " its already done and over with"

[meager galleon]

My sad face emote is better!

[tawny coyote]

Anyone know what will be the next event after the Battle of Glory?

[ashen wharf]

Something

[hardy parcel]

Domination? It's a weekend after all 🤣

I am wondering when we will get arc 3.5

And the epic rewards, where are they?

[ashen wharf]

After mirror mirror

[obtuse otter]

We'll know soon

[vestal wedge]

you got your reward, now move along

🖕 all you want, wont make a difference

[obtuse otter]

Seems we've reached an impasse

[vestal wedge]

lol yeah

[drowsy garden]

I want the Enterprise and 50,000 unc Crystal!!!!!

[drowsy garden]

just for me nobody else

[solemn aspen]

we will wait for our due reward you can move along and not get one.

[drowsy garden]

yeah, whose the parental? 🤣 🤣

[low berry]

What is happening with Scopley they stop doing any content ??

Another swarm event seriously

[drowsy garden]

Aw c'mon you spoiled my surprise 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[prisma geode]

But it’s an Epic swarm event😂

[low berry]

This is getting really not funny anymore

Another event for players not to get resources ??

[merry fulcrum]

Swarm event

[dapper drum]

with biomineral LB

so the level stacked alliances gonna get easy epic stuff

[hardy rose]

please guys, buy franklin. please

• scopley

[dapper drum]

lol still happy with my free 2

[abstract gate]

Dammit, stopped saving my daily rewards for reset and they bring back alb 😂 typical

[low berry]

People say they have solo lb

[dapper drum]

yeah for damage

[hardy rose]

yeah

deal dmg to swarms

[low berry]

40 + no solo

😂😂😂

[dapper drum]

good luck unless you have nothing to do for next 3 days

[potent hound]

Of course Swarm event starts after I completed Swarm dailies.

[hardy rose]

weird rewards tho. 1st place is 5x intrepid bp and 10x marcus shards, with 150 g3 unc gas and some other stuff

[dapper drum]

why would you collect them if you are not done doing rest

[hardy rose]

rank 2 is crystal rewards

rank 3 is ore rewards

[dapper drum]

marcus was made for the trep

section 31 are fed battleship crew

charvanek was made for gladius

and kang for brel

[dreamy root]

I want the Franklin

[mental yoke]

Only alb here. No solo.

[dreamy root]

But it’s 40$ to get and so far no other way to get

[dapper tangle]

@mental yoke what lvl are you?

[mental yoke]

Ops25

[delicate nebula]

Когда будет событие сепаратистов ?

[dapper tangle]

@mental yoke are you talking about no SLB? or no SMS?

[solemn aspen]

stuck in combat and nothing i do gets them unstuck

[merry fulcrum]

@verbal shell don't worry, you're competing with people over level 40 as well

[verbal shell]

They are smiling tonight alright

[earnest depot]

Ops 17 vs ops 36 in swarm event, 😂 way to go scopely

[solemn aspen]

that's the main problem with scopely they don't think about anything they do.

hmmmmm should we make the ranked event server wide? yes! less typing good decision!

[carmine lily]

It’s a global leaderboard, all levels on the same board. It’s total trash, don’t even bother looking at it

[solemn aspen]

I was in 3rd place for as long as my ships survived killling llvl 30's

[carmine lily]

It would be far better if it was an alliance lb.

[solemn aspen]

the 2:30 it took me to get back i was in 23rd place.

im just gonna kill lvl 26's now to make points for the ALB.

screw the ranked event.

[raven hawk]

Swarm LB is a joke. I see lvl36 players when I’m lvl27. No common sense was used.

[modest oyster]

i dont even have a solo leaderboard

nvm it showed up

[brisk berry]

This is such an EPIC event

[ashen wharf]

where those suck up accounts at

[raw zenith]

👀

[inner loom]

The meh SLB rewards will keep some people from chasing it

[normal bane]

@twilit imp please relay to Scopley that server wide solo leaderboards are a BAD idea from a player perspective. How can the average player hope to complete against players 10 or 20 levels higher, especially when damage delt is the metric.

I’m a level 29 and have already done 50M damage to swarm. But top of my server is a player who has done 10x that much since they can hit swarm that are 10-20x stronger

[inland hamlet]

Is this lvl locked cos can't see it

[teal jackal]

Today's special: for only $50,000 USD you too can grind for 20 hours a day and a chance to gain the top position in your leaderboard!

[inner loom]

If you’re not killing 32s with ease you’re probably not a competitor in this SLB

[inland hamlet]

So at what lvl can you see this event?

[inner loom]

No idea

[merry fulcrum]

Probably like 15 or 14

[inland hamlet]

Well can't see at 14

But 15 can.. Oh well maybe next time

[inner loom]

Take comfort in knowing you had no chance in the solo LB. I’m at the other end of the problem where the the rewards aren’t worth any amount of my time to compete.

[abstract gate]

Also that people should take care of their health. Setting incentives to stay up as long as they can to reach a certain place for digital prizes.. not cool.

Do 39+ have their own lb or none at all?

[pliant skiff]

Why is there no distinction between ops lvls for slb? Impossible to compete against the whales! Yet another example of ridiculous thinking by scopely. Congrats on making an slb that only 5% of the server can compete in! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[terse path]

Not really an event if you’re competing with someone 6+ levels higher than you

[raw zenith]

https://discordapp.com/channels/509679626763632640/509688840282308608/703298171878506618

please read

[abstract gate]

@pliant skiff you aren't competing against ops lvl so much as you are competing against maxed franklins vs whatever sub-standard ship you are fielding

I'm 38 with a maxed Franklin and a 33 with more time is currently kicking my ass

@abstract gate higher ops level means better swarm and explorer research

[pliant skiff]

Exactly the whales have the maxed Franklin's, impossible to compete

[abstract gate]

My maxed at ops 33 is having its ass handed to it by some 37s

@abstract gate yes agreed but dedication counts for a lot too

True that!

[pliant skiff]

Correct Tommie

[abstract gate]

In all fairness, I don’t have pike yet. Good news is these three events will get me to max mara shards for some patterns

[pliant skiff]

Even if I spent every waking minute killing swarms I can't compete with those at higher levels it's ridiculous

[abstract gate]

Seems 39+ either have their own lb or none at all

[raw zenith]

https://discordapp.com/channels/509679626763632640/509688840282308608/703298171878506618

[abstract gate]

Thanks @raw zenith saw that!

@abstract gate yes pike is a game changer too, even with a maxed Franklin without pike you are at a massive disadvantage

[obtuse otter]

I suggest we just cancel all events for the foreseeable future. (sarcasm)

[abstract gate]

Yep. Just finished event and will see in the morning if too 25 is at all within reach. If not I’ll just wait.

[pliant skiff]

It's just not parity! Therefore an ops lvl distinction is necessary!

[abstract gate]

It’s supposedly coming starting tomorrow @pliant skiff

Honestly cba with the lb...24hr lb means non-stop farming to maintain a top 3 rank...this pos game doesn't deserve that lvl of commitment anymore

[pliant skiff]

We will see @abstract gate

[obtuse otter]

I'll search for juicy bases 24/7. Maybe

[abstract gate]

Will see you in Fyrsta @pliant skiff!

[pliant skiff]

Actually I went to adelphi today mate lol

[abstract gate]

That’s a nice idea too @obtuse otter. My admiral wants to have 1B in steel in cash, all raided of course. God knows why. But I feel I want to race him there

[noble oar]

Probably more time efficient to to earn money for a fraction of the time and just buy a pack over grinding for 24 hours

[abstract gate]

I probably shouldn’t share that info while @pliant skiff from my own server is here 😂

@noble oar wish I could haha. Plenty of work to do but my employer won’t pay for overtime just because I feel like working extra

[spark nest]

Going all in with everything I had in the opening 30 minutes of the event got me one tenth of the top 3. Players nearly 10 levels above me were just mopping up. I wouldn't call it an event. I think the correct term is disappointment.

[shrewd totem]

@spark nest https://discordapp.com/channels/509679626763632640/509688840282308608/703298171878506618

[obtuse otter]

I've never even bothered with LBs. Why waste all that time with so many other things to do?

[noble oar]

Come now Stirling, they're just continuing to match our expectations after the epic borg rewards. Consistency is key to a quality game you know

[abstract gate]

I guarantee if they bracket the lb's each one will be top 10 only...you're happy rn but just wait 'till tomorrow lol

At best they'll be top 25...

[shrewd totem]

Can we stop being soo negative for 1 day?

[hardy parcel]

It's not being negative. It's being realistic

[shrewd totem]

They heard your complaints and decided to change something without us giving feedback.Be happy for once

[hardy parcel]

After the f up that is the epic rewards we deserve an apology at the very last

Least

[shrewd totem]

Wait for tomorrow,if it gets worse then I will join you and we can burn discord again😂

[hardy parcel]

Epic rewards naow!

[fossil saddle]

Why be negative?
This Swarm event s.... regarding fairness, again. Why must I compete with lvl 37 guys when I’m just lvl 25?
Makes no sense?
Like it was with the Jaylah Event.

[shrewd totem]

@hardy parcel but Epic stuff is a different topic 🤷‍♂️

@fossil saddle they will change brackets tomorrow.We will see what happens

[fossil saddle]

🤷🏻‍♂️

[hardy parcel]

Epic rewards naow!!

[shrewd totem]

All I want from you guys is dont be so negative about changes.They heard you and going to change it.Will it be better?Maybe maybe not.Lets decide that tomorrow.

@hardy parcel I dont think anything will happen.They probably want us to forget it

[hardy parcel]

Never forget! Never surrender!

Epic rewards naow!!

[obtuse otter]

Forget what?

[shrewd totem]

🤣

[obtuse otter]

🥃

[shrewd totem]

It already started Phoenix

[abstract gate]

@shrewd totem as always I hope they prove me wrong...I reckon I'm right though

[shrewd totem]

If you are right(I wish not) start complaining tomorrow.Without seeing the change,making an assumption is wrong 🤷‍♂️

[abstract gate]

Narrowed brackets will equal narrowed rankings

It'll be an overall win for some but zero change for most

I dare scopely to prove me wrong!

[inner loom]

Pattern recognition is what our wetware does best

[abstract gate]

Also if they are narrowing the brackets does that mean instead of useless rare bp's lvl34+ will see epics in their lb? Again I reckon not...prove me wrong scopely!

[noble oar]

I'm still betting the borg finale will be borg armadas in borg space requiring borg armada directives. They can earn money on entry to borg sectors, borg armada directives, on vi'dar BP, mats to upgrade vi'dar,.....

[abstract gate]

@noble oar don't forget the "epic" reward

Seriously though if you haven't guessed by now the bulk of us are so f-ing done with scopely's promises

A scopely promise is worth less than their idea of an epic reward

[unreal osprey]

@abstract gate that the promises are worth less than a 💩 stuck in a stick, that has to be clear to all of us

[shrewd totem]

Okay guys,I will them dont make changes next time since you guys are so negative about it

🖖

[neat plover]

Why isn't the swarm leaderboard event bracket? No way I can compete against a level 38 When I not even 30.

[shrewd totem]

@neat plover https://discordapp.com/channels/509679626763632640/509688840282308608/703298171878506618

[abstract gate]

@shrewd totem tbh you are asking for a level of trust scopely has in no way earned. In my/our experience any changes to the norm benefit nobody but scopely

[ashen wharf]

Imagine only wanting positive feedback

Sounds like a communist mentality

Should go live in north korea

[abstract gate]

Yup, look how well that works for Trump

[lofty ibex]

Weird statement @ashen wharf

[unreal osprey]

@abstract gate the only thing that benefits us is the free pack because of the covid

[ashen wharf]

yeah covid is nice

As ive said

[unreal osprey]

XD

[abstract gate]

@unreal osprey even that is below the minimum compared to other mobile games

[lofty ibex]

When you have killed 400 swarms but only rank 80 cause I am completing with the lvl 38 with a maxed Franklin.

[ashen wharf]

Still doesnt counter balance every thing else trash about the game

[neat plover]

@shrewd totem So me competing with level 38's was the fix? Lol

[shrewd totem]

No they will change it tomorrow

[abstract gate]

@neat plover no, tomorrow is the fix

Bend over and prepare to be "fixed"

[obtuse otter]

Domination?

[neat plover]

Thanks, but seriously trained monkeys could make better events

[unreal osprey]

@abstract gate i know

[amber gull]

this event tier suckkksssss

how am I a 26 gonna compete with a 36

[shrewd totem]

@amber gull https://discordapp.com/channels/509679626763632640/509688840282308608/703298171878506618

[amber gull]

is that for real?

[dapper bloom]

why not put it as announcement ?

[amber gull]

oh sweet 🙂

yeah ^

[shrewd totem]

@dapper bloom I will ask

[amber gull]

thanks, that answered my question, hard to find that in the GC messages from whenever ago

[dapper bloom]

yeah

[lofty ibex]

I wish they had it right the first time. Already killed 400 swarms. The 35k I'm gonna get isn't really worth the repairs.

[shrewd totem]

They decided it after seeing your reactions/feedback/complaints

[dense lantern]

One of our alliance is hitting swarms but not gettimg any points in the event. Anyone else got this issue?

[shrewd totem]

Any screenshots?

Tried restart?

[dense lantern]

They have tried restarting the app and their phone.

[shrewd totem]

It would be better if he was here and talking about it.Need ss of his battle log showing him killing swarms and his event and ops level

[dense lantern]

Thisnis the 2nd event that they have had this. Raised tickets and just get apologies with no solution.

[abstract gate]

Effort counts btw guys...

[dense lantern]

@shrewd totem have asked the player to post here.

[shrewd totem]

👍🏻

[abstract gate]

I'm bad at drawing on my phone but the take away is a lvl 35 and 33 are kicking 2 38's asses rn

I'm not actually putting any effort in though...my score is basically my solos plus what was left of my franklins hull

[neat plover]

Confused about the recent announcement. So we can spend all the Epic Rewards, and will get them back for the next event?

[abstract gate]

@neat plover that's ok you're not the only one confused...scopely are so confused they already temoved the announcement

[shrewd totem]

You will get enough to convert in upcoming store.There will be a limit @neat plover

So spend them

@abstract gate I still have the news 🤷‍♂️

[abstract gate]

For those that missed it

@shrewd totem gone from my billboard

[neon badge]

We did it guys
https://media.tenor.com/images/d45d1130a748a7d8b152c40b782c72c4/tenor.gif

[abstract gate]

Of scopley follow through with this i may actually begin to like them

@shrewd totem my billboard rn

It was there now...poof, gone

[shrewd totem]

🤷‍♂️

[abstract gate]

Guess we'll see...again...sigh...

[neat plover]

So we will get borg points back, that we will need to convert into new borg points, and spend those in the new event store, that hopefully will have better rewards?

[obtuse otter]

But I still wanna complain!

[prisma geode]

If you still have Borg points, use them because there will be a limit on the new Borg points.

[jaunty knoll]

"there's no reason to hold onto the tokens you have" yes there is, I have 34 and can't spend them...lol
