There was no event that gave northstars except for the original event and event stores

NS was in the first act of war
if you didn't spend your batleth tokens in first few days and waited
drowsy viper
Can we add the Jelly BPs in any event store? There’s BPs for nearly every ship there already
merry fulcrum
Yeah, how long ago was that?
merry fulcrum
And this isn't really concerning the Northstar, it's concerning the jellyfish which is being used in a event against ships that don't have a chance if you actually crew your ships properly which most people by now know how to
drowsy viper
@dapper drum can’t you stop talking about things that happened ages ago? I mean, everyone has different play styles, but it’s Scopely who decides to push events for a ship that you even can’t buy with money anymore
dapper drum
you were given an emergency phindra for free
merry fulcrum
I just sent my ships for the first 3 target practice events to go die, 70 times
nova valley
THANK GOODNESS you still get points for participating.... you don't even have to win! shew
drowsy viper
DarkPrince, you think you’re helpful but you’re not
merry fulcrum
Yes who wants to warp in ships 70 times to a system 🙄 lol
nova valley
you don't even HAVE to win.
who wants to mine green data for 6 seconds at a time? or kill 262 swarm on sundays?
dapper drum
just spitting the truth to the whiners 😏
nova valley
but ya'll do it.
drowsy viper
Besides a whole “you should’ve done X” there’s no actual help
fringe owl
It would be nice if Scopely would put the Jelly in the next event store for anyone 12+ if they continue to run this event.
drowsy viper
You brag to shut whines? 😂
crisp jasper
I can't imagine how someone could be so bored as to just send a ship over and over without trying. This is such a fun event, and if you actually try you may accidentally learn a few things about pvp and get some points... Maybe...
dapper drum
the Jellyfish is what got me to spend, if they were smart they would
merry fulcrum
That's what most of us are saying, give people access to the jellyfish if you're going to throw in events like this
And a way to earn it for free that isn't a limited time thing either
drowsy viper
Oh so suddenly everyone who doesn’t have a jelly is stupid? Whoa too far
crisp jasper
But yes - it makes no sense why scopely would sell some jellyfish now.
merry fulcrum
Like the starfleet academy thing was, select servers got a thing called starfleet academy
They gave free stonn, spock, and jellyfish bps
nova valley
Dear Scopely, I don' think it's fair that a level 47 on my server has a kelvin. Please give me one so it's more fair. Love, DJz
merry fulcrum
At level 16 you could sit there and max stonn and spock
drowsy viper
There’s not even the option to buy a jelly anymore, and you can buy everything else
Even they introduced NS temporarily to the store for few days because many players missed it
merry fulcrum
@nova valley lol, that's not even the point of this anyways, what I'm saying and a few others is scopely should add a way for people who don't have a jellyfish to go grind one, even if it's adding their bps to pve and pvp chests
drowsy viper
Most people who don’t have a jelly are at 5-15 bps away, is not like you are super awesome and they’re super stupid
So behave like normal people
crisp jasper
I'm 34 bps short... I blame my parents...
merry fulcrum
It's not gonna hurt anybody, most good free to plays are at a point where their miners could kill jellyfish with ease
ashen wharf
just use faction ships and blow up all the jellies there
drowsy viper
I’m sure half BPS in store is perfectly fine
ashen wharf
ez
drowsy viper
Or event store
merry fulcrum
Not too hard
drowsy viper
I mean I honestly don’t understand the obsession of Scopely with Jelly
crisp jasper
Put 5 jellyfish bps in the top milestone. People could grind it otu after a few of these events, and maybe by that time they'll have enough experience to know they didn't actually need it
nova valley
the jellyfish was a level locked ship. for those ELIGIBLE players, it is grindable. if you miss your window, you miss your window. you've never had to "pay the price" til now, and even now, they're still giving you a path to the event even if you lose. doesn't get much more fair than that.
i'm not saying they can't offer the jellyfish, but i totally get why they don't. it's the SAME reason you can't buy an antares at ops 18. these ships are level locked. and they've never had a reason to unlock this ship.
@merry fulcrum
drowsy viper
But there’s many players who put money in the game and for some reason they didn’t buy jelly
It’s not even favouring free vs paid players. It’s randomly favouring some players who decided they didn’t need jelly
fringe owl
The Antares is still obtainable once you pass the minimum needed though.
The Jelly is not, and it wasn't always grindable.
ashen wharf
you could skip the jelly and go for the northstar
drowsy viper
@nova valley your point is completely invalid when they introduced NS again to the store for lvl +20 people
merry fulcrum
@nova valley if you want to use that logic, then remember, you can get Antares bps at level 18, even 14 if you put in enough time
crisp jasper
I was never offered the jellyfish at any level I could use it. The first time I saw it, I had just started. The next time I got a jellyfish offer I was 24 or so and the life of the jellyfish had long since passed
nova valley
@drowsy viper the northstar isn't a warship, and is still relevant to players up til about ops 35. there's not a faster miner in the game til t5 or t6 faction miner. your point is invalid.
@merry fulcrum yes. you can. just like i can obtain ISS jelly blueprints. but i still can't use it til i am the appropriate level.
drowsy viper
It’s more like if they choose now to do an event only for Klingon people and when people complained you respond: “you had the choice to be Klingon!” And then they reply: “but a Klingon specific event didn’t exist when I had that choice!” And finally you reply “hahaha your fault for being stupid and not a Klingon ahaha “
You sound like this
merry fulcrum
And virtually everyone is the appropriate level to use a jellyfish, it takes 2 days of playing to be the appropriate level to use a jellyfish, even one if you use speed ups and etc @nova valley
And with an event like this, the jellyfish becomes appropriate
drowsy viper
@nova valley and if there was a warship you’d reply saying “the jelly is one of the fastest explorer, useful to any level, and not comparable”
merry fulcrum
Lol, Northstar back in its prime time introduction was a major warship, people used it to crack bases
And some level 20s still do even to this day
nova valley
Dear Scopely, please offer the baby jelly pack for ops 50 and down because the same people that bitch and moan about how expensive the game is want you to take their 20 to build it for an event that's run two times in the last 196 days. Love, DJz
drowsy viper
Let’s be honest, the jelly was only accesible if you stayed in certain levels longer than usual just to grind the bps
merry fulcrum
😂 🤣 @nova valley
crisp jasper
I'd rather my competition buy useless low level jellyfish than ISS jellyfish
drowsy viper
Your pedantry levels are off charts @nova valley
nova valley
don't use big words like that @drowsy viper
spell it out. i'm stupid cause i have a jellyfish.
merry fulcrum
Do remember, usually people complain about a game because they enjoy it and want to see it improved, if I was apathetic to this game I'd have Uninstalled it by now
drowsy viper
If it’s the adjective that fits your behaviour the best, of course I’m going to use it
modest oyster
why all the stink about the regular jelly
take your losses in the phindra like i do 🙂
drowsy viper
Oh so now you play the whining victim ? Who called you stupid ?
nova valley
i don't thin i whined. you've done plenty enough of that here for about 34 diff people.
drowsy viper
It seems that if you simply suggest jelly to be in an event store, you trigger people

ps. according to google, a pedant is a schoolteacher....

may try to use it in the all new Scrabble Go, by Scopely.
drowsy viper
What have I done
nova valley
not left yet?
crisp jasper
In all seriousness, I don't think you can reasonably argue that not offering the jellyfish at this time makes any sense. People want it. People would buy it. It wouldn't affect anything else. I'm glad they don't, so I won't be tempted to spend $20 on one, but they really should have
drowsy viper
I already typed my suggestion few minutes ago
Now I’m doubting whether to make popcorns or to continue to see the full extent of your butt hurt
nova valley
so don't be all talk. lead by example. go spam other channels.
crisp jasper
But not having the jellyfish for sale does not make the event bad.
drowsy viper
Already done
nova valley
ugh. i was hoping it would take your attention away from here. alas.
am i exhibiting signs of butt hurt?
felt the other way around to me. you're being very defensive
i'm just trolling.
drowsy viper
Kind of a lot
drowsy viper
Half of trollers are butt hurt too so it’s not exclusive
Hahahahaha
Good attempt
I would get banned and you’d be free of me. That’s smart
nova valley
i didn't say to post them here! you're welcome to PM them.
drowsy viper
Hahahahaha
nova valley
i am flattered though. upon reading other definitions of the word "pedant" it's become clear to me that you think i'm a highly intelligent and well spoken individual. i thank you sir.
i am better educated than those around me, and while pompous, arrogant, and possibly narcissistic, a pedant is generally speaking an expert in a specific subject matter to which one is speaking about.
i'm gonna go ahead and say.... yeah. yup. i'm totally a pedant.
❤️
drowsy viper
If you want a synonym it would be smartass
nova valley
smartass = arrogant = pompous = narcissitic
the shoe fits. i can own it.
at the root of it all, you still think i'm a genius 😉
obtuse otter
nova valley
now now, don't go back on it. i've fallen in love with your new word. every definition of this word describes someone of extremely high intellect and an expert in a subject matter.
please don't take it back.
drowsy viper
I’m better at vocabulary than grammar anyway
nova valley
i'm better at pedantry than vocabulary.
drowsy viper
Why would I take it back? I knew the definition and I used it well
But a personal advice, don’t try to use it to flatter people in real life 😂
Like oh boss, you’re so pedantic today!
I do not want any harm to you
nova valley
yeah..... already tried.... now i'm cleaning my office.... it DID take him 3 or 4 minutes. he ALSO had to use google.
drowsy viper
Hahahahaha
nova valley
alright. all trolling aside. i PERSONALLY don't have a dog in this fight. i have my jelly. so i'm fine with the event in either form. HOWEVER. for the sake of peace and humor, i don't think your position is wrong. i just don't think you're right either. i understand why it's the way it is. bu i also think they could make a few bucks and change the mechanic. it's one of those things that scopely made a decision on. we don't always agree with what they do. but we do have to accept if if we wanna continue to enjoy the game.
shrewd totem
👀
nova valley
there's a lot i disagree with in the game, but in the end, i can push through, get my points as best i can, and move on to the next thing, or roar bout it being unfair. the problem is it won't matter. feedback is considered, but scopely only considers landslide feedback... panic even described this in my interview just Wednesday. if a mechanic was changed, and the feedback was 50/50, then scopely will leave it the way they designed it.
only when feedback is approaching the 70/30 level or even higher, will they consider reversing their own decision. i mean it has to be dang near unanimous for them to overturn a decision they've made.
drowsy viper
So the decision is kinda final? I mean it’s probably not the first time it’s been asked so probably you already have an answer
But in my specific case, I didn’t talk about unfairness, in my specific case I just suggested to add jelly BPs in event store
nova valley
i dunno if they're considering changing it or not. there's not been any info provided to me that suggests it's being looked at.
IF IT MATTERS THOUGH, in my report/feedback, i DID suggest the turras instead of the jelly as the explorer in TP1.
See, id on't disagree with ya. i just dno't think that this particular event merits as much uproar that it gets. it's the second time in forever that we've had it lol
plus i enjoy trolling a bit. and you were a good sport.
drowsy viper
Well there’s always uproar with any exclusive item, and I already made peace knowing I won’t have every exclusive item of the game. In my case I was surprised they added battle points (though only a few) to that particular event considering it’s not popular
By the way, I liked the other version of PvP event way more, the one where killing any ship in any system using Kumari, Vahklas or Kehra gives you points.
Im guessing this will be tomorrow
nova valley
That was a miner slaughter fest. Hahaha and yes I liked it better too. But everyone whose miner I killed would disagree. Lol
gusty glen
Hello scopely and panic, this morning I spent 1100 alliance credits on 7 day peace shield and use it. A few hours ago I see live fire event and can't do it because the shield would be wasted. I can only send ship and hope someone destroy it 45 times. This makes me sad. Please tell me when live fire events will happen in future so I can use 8hr shield in the morning instead of 7 days shield. Thanks.
drowsy viper
Park it there lol
shrewd totem
Hmm
drowsy viper
With a Vemet you’ll have to park there less times too
shrewd totem
That is a good idea. They should warn people before event is live so they get ready
But this is Scopely and they dont say anything earlier before event goes live
dapper drum
whats a shield?
shrewd totem
The thing you do NOT put on while you go to sleep
gusty glen
I think maybe they could show the upcoming events somehow for the next 7 days, with the days counting down until they start. That would be nice as you could plan.
Also, yes, actually someone in my alliance told me to put vemet on, so I only need to send it to get destroyed 23 times 😭😭😭
shrewd totem
Well many asked for event calendar but not happening
Simply because everything can change till last minute and I dont think they want to give an inaccurate calendar that would result in a disaster
gusty glen
True, people would break out the pitchforks 😂
shrewd totem
Yep experienced it during that Easter event 😅
tawdry kindle
Yep. Silly. This event should be the Turas, Talla & Phindra. Including the Jelly is......
@unique quiver
Use a Talla, put Kumak on with Nero & Vemet as sidekicks, and watch them jellies going byebye 😋😉
And if you don’t have a Talla, then use Vemet captain with Helvia as sidekick; will quick completing the event as well 🤷🏽♂️👍🏾
icy panther
Just to be clear though: Having a plan, sticking to it, and releasing a calendar should not be hard. Don’t blame players for Scopely not being able to do this. Yes, Scopely tried it and failed. They may be afraid to try it again. But it was still their failure to follow the schedule, not the players’ “revolt,” that is the problem.
dapper drum
using Kumak as captain when you can already max a jelly low 100% stat boost is pointless
only if you plan to use an officer that relies on officer stats, and even then by time it becomes useful the battle is over
even tier 5 vemet won't be able to compete with tier 3 spock with kirk on a jelly
tier 4 spock I was ending battles over 1m shield health, so vemet only taking off 25k to 50k per round is pointless

@merry fulcrum could you also let me know where did you get the info? been staying at ops 35 for a while 😬
merry fulcrum
Just common sense, why would scopely do another race event when someone could do the minimum upgrades and spend less than $100 while competing on a leaderboard could make the same person spend $500 to win the event
Plus they haven't had one since the one that occurred when the iss jellyfish came out

@everyone Hey Scopely, when can one hope for a refinery event on server 142 - the last one was already 6 months ago. And the normal refinery is always kept nice and lean, a cheek to think only of big coal a no go of the customer.
cerulean schooner
@everyone The game lacks much more variety, much of it consists only of boring NPC farms. Questsystem badly kept. Many things must be kept interesting for the player. What good is it to support paygamer who with Ops 40+ make life difficult for smaller players?

Shouldn't people be excluded from this event if they already have the Avatar? Not like they can earn it again...

So is tonight going to be bfg, pvp, aug hostiles and swarm? That's a lot of f-ing around

@frozen abyss he may have won the avatar but not the full amount of Officer shards last time around. If you compete in the Unlock Mudd event you are automatically joined to the avatar event I believe.

No the avatar event is an opt in event...he actually chose to deny somebody an avatar by clicking join lol

Really hate how much stronger the jelly is over the other ships I get that it is a stronger ship and so it should reflect that. But my max talla with max officers with all the packs for ships and officers should not be losing. The Triangle is useless. Jellies sitting at the entrance of the event systems just smashing anything non jelly

Evening all, I was under the impression / hoping swarm Sunday event would increase in difficulty on ops 34. Does anyone know when it increases again?

@abstract gate If I remember right there's a slightly bigger gap in the mid 30s, it jumps at 35 rather than 34. O2C can confirm it when he wakes up.

There are a few more ways to finish the event if people are soo scared of those little Jellies.
Find an ally and work together
Put Vemet as cap etc etc
But people like to complain instead of thinking how to finish event in an easy way

@nova sierra I edited it lol, I started to say "about bluestacks" then changed my phrasing halfway through and got my birds in wackwards

@shrewd totem it isn't but it is
according to mirek and krell
found out going up against a lvl 44 jelly doing 40k damage per hit
shrewd totem
Hmm
nova sierra
😉 "about a/for/the/in regards to/on behalf of" usually works for me.... cover all the bases
dapper drum
from 8500 damage
shrewd totem
That is nice
dapper drum
no 40k but I don't have tier 5 krell and tier 4 mirek
so a phiny with mirek and krell could take on a jelly
dapper drum
but everyone loves running yuki with kirk and spock
so gotta run kirk and spock as well and 3rd goes to mirek if going to kill jellies, khan if going for phinny and tally

Because most of the people dont know that much about crews
So they just copy others

The shields are lowered by Yuki’s ability. If your ship dies too quickly then it cannot lower the shields as much

Right your officers are no where near high enough to do any damage. They are tier one mate - they may be level 3 or 2 but they are tier one with +35% bonus for Krell and +25% bonus for Mirek. My officers have +175% and +75% respectively.
And yes prime officer research improves the amount of defence bonus I get so it will play a part
quasi zodiac
They're 15/15 how tf are they not strong enough

shrewd totem
@random tide for your level that is good
quasi zodiac
@random tide nice! But it's irrelevant now because we figured out the problem
jaunty sonnet
I asked you for screenshots of your officers because your battlereport doesn’t match what a 15/15 officer would give in bonus and instead you just say screw it. I literally wasted 50k ship xp and 3k latinum upgrading my phindra to show you it is possible but you just decide to throw it in and maintain your officers are 15/15
I tell you now that prime research is not the major factor in this - your bonus of 35% and 25% are
shrewd totem
Nooo his officers are RANK 3! WHY ARENT YOU BELIEVING HIM
jaunty sonnet
So if your officers are indeed 15/15 then post a screenshot and you can take it to Scopely saying they are broken

Am I correct in assuming that a purchase is required to get/have enough “battle pass points” to complete the event?

@silver current No, buying battle pass points is not required to complete the Battle Pass. Players who complete the battle pass events each day will be able to get to the last milestone without buying points.

Battle pass is no different to the Borg milestones, stay active, complete your events and you’ll be fine. I’m current on milestone 9/10
fervent folio
yeah, there's 11 days left, plenty of time
drowsy viper
There’s a big jump in points from 9 to 10
fervent folio
there was in Borg Arcs 1-3 as well
drowsy viper
Many people still are at milestone 8
fervent folio
so am I
I'm still not worried...scroll up, a dev literally just said it is possible
drowsy viper
Yep but with 6k points a day I doubt the points will be enough
So they have to ramp up rewards as well
fervent folio
it's not always 6k points a day, the points vary
drowsy viper
Well that should be good news as the only event who gave tons of points was faction hunt, and I love it
We’re at 153k points and last milestone is at 225k points. At 7k points a day that would take more than 10 days (11). If they don’t increase the number of points per day, I’d say that’s cutting it pretty close. I mean it’s still doable of course, but I wouldn’t relax
woven belfry
The points have varied each day, they could increase again. All three months of the Borg event it was doable to complete it free if you did all milestones on most days - a little bit of leeway without buying points, not a ton.
drowsy viper
I agree but I understand people’s preoccupation, specially we had to do an event we’d rather ignore (PvP) because we don’t know how much of leeway do we have
I mean I’m sure I’ll get to the last milestone because I’ll do all to be sure. But I expect some complaining if they’re too strict
drowsy viper
Yep but the battle points forced to finish all milestones
I wouldn’t have minded stopping in the middle
Specially people without jelly, it’s very hard to tell them to die 45 up to times to complete an event
At the end they also lowered the rewards of many many events (domination) because they gave battle points and kept normal events (augment hostiles) with considerably better rewards. so you’re kinda forced to do all the events and some are not that quick to complete
Maybe the main objective was to keep people too busy to complain about the nerfed domination maybe 😂
silver current
@lime raft thank you, a direct answer is always appreciated. o7
silent horizon
Why is this disscussion taking place again? It already happened every single borg arc, and every single borg arc you were able to complete all milestones with 2-3 days to spare. Don’t you people have any patience? There are events that award 12 or 13k points, like Domination events. There are still 10-11 more days left, for crying out loud. This battle pass thing, alongside the borg equivalent, has been very decent, and a real bargain, and you never needed to buy points for it, unless you were not active enough. The way things are set up, and looking at the borg events, you can skip 2-3 days and still get all rewards. Have patience
abstract gate
But we want it all now or sooner dammit!...seriously though he's right, save your pitchforks for scopely's legitimately shady bs.
The fact that we are on around 150-170k points 13 days in is all you need to know...providing you have a basic grasp of mathematics

Why do these new missions require you to donate dil? Shouldnt the point of missions be to acquire rss and unc not lose them? Already up to needing 550k or so dil just to continue with 3 missions. Sad we cant get new missions to give us that much dil.
Dil is in short supply it seems in our server and shouldn't be what is needed to do a simple mission.

Wait 'til you get the missions that want 45m Trit..

Or 5 million dil or 1.5m raw ore or ..... the point is not to be easy?

I have the raw ore one now as well. But you would think these new ones would be more net positive as they are supposed to go with the current event. Im fine with some grinding ones ( slowly doing the 5 mil steel one), but those are mining ones and should take awhile.
Dont give us "new" missions that are really just a spend rss for no reason. Plenty of things needed to spend rss on. So then the missions become pointless

The new Augment autopilot missions were fine, 5k dil or whatever. But 500k for the recent storyline? Meh

Also if you are on a lame server like mine where Scope hasn't seen fit to grace you with the independent officers pack, the new Augment shards ones have a relative ton of independent credits.
Relative, as 1,500 (if i recall) is not great, but that would take 30 days from the augment store and a boatload of credits.

CoW wasn’t too bad I think. And not nerfed domination gave near 5M trit

Which is ridiculous as the whole point of having an arc and not being able to miss a single event it’s a bonus, no?

also the same problem our alliance dont do epic to expense to get pack
torpid light
I was hoping that the highest tier of the COW event would give out badges. As a challenge where the entire alliance needed to participate, this would be a great way of encouraging active participation from many players over several days.
You could even restrict badges to those players who contribute over a certain amount toward the overall alliance total.
But that level of contribution would need to be level based and not just reward the biggest players who will obviously contribute more.
waxen sedge
Badges are working fine. I have several of them because I am supporting this game financially and thus allowing it to continue to be available to play for those that don't. The two groups are never going to be on the same playing field though, people have to start coming to grips with that.
dire veldt
i disagree somewhat with that, people who pay generally have massive surplus of badges, people who dont spend have a massive surplus of promotion ready officers, there is a better middle ground somewhere
raw zenith
I do not think his comment was aimed at being on same playing field as spenders. And most do understand that. But there has to be a way by wich f2p players can get badges, otherwise they leave. If f2p leave whales have no players to drain for rss and they leave. Both whales and f2p need each other.
fervent folio
Totally agreed there Hari. I myself am I light spender, so I know I'm not gonna keep up wit the people who spend a lot more and I'm OK with that. As long as I shield and my Alliance is not at war, it's still easy enough to progress. It will be slower the less you spend, but nearly everything is available for free in this game if you take the time to grind it out and wait for Events with stores that have what you want.
dire veldt
with the exception of badges
there is no way to steadily earn even a small amount without buying
raw zenith
badges are a big contention with f2p
waxen sedge
Maybe, I guess I don't know how bad the struggle is if you only have access to the amount you can get for free. It's 3 each from the faction packs and then armada chests, right?
prisma geode
I would like to see them go to a subscription style, where you get a 30% or so boost with subscription on materials and such. Still sell ship bps, but everything else based off of mining and grinding hostiles.
fervent folio
well, I'm holding out hope that will change. I know we asked for more ways to get Independent credits and we've started seeing more ways to get them. Badges are the next thing the CCs have been asking to make more available, so hopefully we'll see that "soon".
raw zenith
@waxen sedge yes, unless you get a lucky pull from an epic armada chest

Yeah, they are pretty rare from Armada chest though. Would take a long time to gather what you need that way, but is possible if you are in an Alliance that runs them regularly.

this Discord is for all servers, so unless you tell us your server we can't really help you. Probably best to either ask in GC in-game for an active Alliance or check the leaderboards for top Alliances and PM their Commodores to see if they are accepting players or if they have a "training Alliance" associated with them.

Thanks for the discussion on badges following my post. To clarify, I was certainly not looking for so many badges that we match whales. More echoing J Clark’s post that it is such a block that you cannot progress officers at all, and such why stay.
The problem with the 6 free badges is that the officers you would use them on evolve so 6 is never enough.
I do spend in the game but £99 for for the officer pack is too much for me.
simple spear
Final tier rewards for CoW or something epic should have badges. Should be available in event stores for purchase. Should be available as a one time purchase at every level of reputation, not every 3.
dapper drum
should be a 1 month cool down on the respected badges
abstract gate
3 months+ of borg featuring new must have officers, a month of outlaws with new officers, several other assorted new officers in the past year and zero improvements to badge gain...it's entirely unsustainable for f2p. Nobody who understands the game thinks we need to be able to max every officer but the inability to progress more than 3 or 4 is ridiculous
abstract gate
Epic armada packs are prohibitively slow/expensive and random so anyone suggesting those are an option can get lost
Simplest fix is add one of each to the 30day loyalty chest or instigate a 30day cd to the faction loyalty boxes
It still putting the brakes on f2p giving the minnows and dolphins a nudge towards the store without giving a blatant middle finger to f2p

Honestly I don't see certain things change as long as they rake in money from people buying packs. For instance in my store the 99 dollar faction officer pack is not worth 99 dollars not even close. But I bet they sell a ton of them. Mainly because they have the badges in them.
Those faction officer packs should come with one of those faction officers completely maxed out badges and all and more chest to open. I bet people would buy them

The thing is there is literally a thousand ways they could hand out a few badges. The fact that they haven’t is insulting and shows they don’t understand their own game. Hell put 1 in the 30 day loyalty chest, that’s 12 a year, or in the monthly elite pack, 9 badges total after a year and half of playing is dumb, dumber when I have 24 officers waiting on them currently.

@twilit imp Could you please pass on to Scopely that these Data Mines are way to small. Perhaps they could possibly increase them to 30k at minimum. Changing mines every 7 seconds to refresh causes the mines to bug out and all sorts of issues.

Also good for events where only mining counts, lost OC still counts. Just check on it every now and then, if it's dead 🤷♂️ if it's alive 🤷♂️
It would make more sense to make mines infinite, but with a time that your ship stops at. So that everyone mines for 15 seconds no matter the mining speed, but you get more or less in that 30 seconds depending on your mining died. I doubt that's a mechanic they could implement though 🤔

Then swap your crew to mine slower, problem solved 😋

Ok I got 70k points for a lvl 1 research, thanks hahaha

@dapper drum what you’re saying about the packs doesn’t make any sense. The person you replied to, asked why most milestone events of Outlaws arc give only ore, such as augment hostile hunting. At least Mudd event gives crystal, but there’s no Outlaws milestones outside of battle pass
crisp abyss
Most events give out ore, thats why i said they should rotate to all 3 to make it more balanced ive 4k uncommon ore and scraping the barrel for thr orher 2
Its nothing to do with buying packs, just that the events in particular alliance rewards are always ore
shrewd totem
Most daily(6h/12h) events give crystal
crisp abyss
For example my ALB for domination and the aug hostile event
Lots of lovely ore
Just in case i didnt have enough
Yest was all ore too
Not saying i never get crystal
But its not even
Get way more ore than anything else
Hence my resources look like this
dapper drum
you haven't even gotten to the techs that are going to eat up your rare gas and crystal
prisma geode
You need ore for your station in the mid to high 30’s and faction Battle ships will take all that away in one module.
prisma geode
@crisp abyss in reality, if you don’t already have an Augur. You are about 40k ore short.
Uncommon that is.
crisp abyss
Im only lvl 30 so brel will be the next ship to eat my ore just getting to 32 will need more crystal and gas
I know there will be an unc wall and they want you to buy packs. Its just that from the events it doesnt feel balanced very weighted in ore was just saying as i know they wont change it

I unlocked Assimilated Jaylah from fathers day pack. Thought she was going to haunt me as I only got half her bp’s from Borg event.

Assimilated, not Augmented, and just call her 5of10 😉

Nice. I got pike. Except I already had pike and since his officer ability is broken it's one of the worst officers to get from that pack.

is there a prime 4* gas/cry/ore refine too?
meager galleon
Not that I see

The lag that this augment event causes makes this game unplayable.
Go to Yarda.. attack a ship.. attack a ship 4 more times.. game finally registers attack.. gets stuck in battle for 15 seconds.
Why do scopely run this and the data event when they break the game?
And I've placed 1st in them all so imagine the effort and frustration this takes 😭
tawdry kindle
Yet people keep doing them non the less over and over every time again, so there’s little to no motivation for scopy to make it a quality product whatsoever I suppose...🤷🏽♂️
Even the memory leakage from 2018 (!!) for example is back in since them last updates which causes the app to crash after a certain amount of time/actions...
Just saying...🙄😋

Not sure what points are worth what...

@sonic lantern just look at the solo event. Points should be same

@dapper drum they will with how many times you have to tell your ship to attack 1 single hostile and then out of nowhere someone zooms in at warp10 and takes it..
The lag is terrible in that system..
No thought whatsoever about the augment event hostiles and no improvements from the last event despite feedback.
Augment need a further update with higher level systems elsewhere including dark space..
Same for swarm and either a new Franklin or extra research/tiers for the old one

Kinda disappointed with the bonus refinery. After a 3 month hiatus, without announcement, they put it on Father’s Day when people are with their families and log in less regularly. WTF
random tide
You only need to log in twice, 10 hours apart...
shrewd totem
3 times actually
silent horizon
Fascinating how people still find reasons to complain. Just enjoy the damn refinery, stop over-thinking things lol
shrewd totem
He is actually right
Without an announcement/notification he cant know if there is a bonus refinery or not and completely miss it just because he decided to spend his time with his family instead of playing a mobile game
silent horizon
That goes for americans. In Europe father’s day is hardly celebrates, and not really sure about the rest of the world. Plus, it is not as if the refinery started at a random time, it started at the same time when events refresh. I always try to log in after the reset, mostly out of curiosity
dapper drum
12pm EST is the daily dose of our favorite segment "Oh Scopely !?"
followed by the 12:30pm EST segment of "Riots of our Life"
shrewd totem
Doesnt matter US,EU or Apac.A notification or an announcement would be good to make those people log in again
silent horizon
True, as a gesture of curtesy it would be nice, but only as that
shrewd totem
Not everyone log ins to game during event reset when they have families to spend time with and even when they do log in later at night they might already miss one of the 3 chances they get during 24 hours
silent horizon
So you are saying that if there was a notification it was alright to not spend time with their families while they tend to the game for a few minutes? Something which they can do just as easely without a notification
shrewd totem
If there was a notification or announcement they would be aware that there is bonus refinery and decision would be theirs if they want to open the app or not
And since we get same events over and over again there is no reason to log in during event reset time
It would be even good for Scopely. More players would log in during the day/good for their stats
dapper drum
spend time with family or spend time on mats
family isn't going to tier up my ships or upgrade my base 🤷
they will increase my stress and make me eat too much
simple spear
We tag our alliance in discord to notify of stuff like bonus refinery and such. If they don't login or have notifications on...oh well we tried.
swift lotus
I put up a 1 day shield and decided to play outside with my kid to spend Father’s Day. I logged in around 4 pm and found the bonus refinery.
So I had 19hours for 2 10 hour resets. I do log in regularly but it should be announced.
robust vapor
They should do it when I'm not asleep also 😂

What happened to the corona care gifts? A large portion of the playerbase is still in partial or full lockdown, just because America refuses to admit it has a problem doesn't mean the rest of the world left their brains in the garbage.

Corona what?
abstract gate
Typical response...dunno why I bother tbh, gaslighting mods and useless cm's. No proactive information available. What exactly is the point of maintaining a social media presence for the game when no useful information is available within an actionable time period?
candid goblet
24 hours notice for a Bonus Refinery would be brilliant instead of “Surprise!!” , as best intentions by Scopely for this players can prepare and ensure they can set sometime out of their lives to log in. Many players are terribly busy or working different shift patterns and something special like the Bonus Refinery should be given maximum publicity especially as we have been waiting for this for so long.
modest oyster
it could be worse, there could be NO bonus refinery
coarse heath
The 2x refine for res should have been longer than this it has been forever since they did it
abstract gate
If they removed the randomness of refinery we wouldn't need a so called bonus refine.
winged tulip
Still think the bonus refinery should be like 3 charges, 24 hour expiry rather than 10h cooldown - not nice setting a 3am alarm clock to get the extra refine in..
abstract gate
Nobody's forcing you to...the fact that you feel you must speaks volumes about the state of progression in this game though

You'll be sick of the sight of them soon enough when you run out of badges for promotions
winged tulip
Yep. Gate the game economy around g3 and it's unsurprising that people will do whatever they can to get all they can..
novel hollow
Easy fix to the bonus refinery no cool down, 24 hours to use x no of pulls. You can log in use them all at once and be done. Bonus is if you got 6 pulls, you could use them all for one Mat if you wished.
carmine lily
Or just unlock the refinery entirely and let people refine as much as they want/have. It worked wonders last time.
real bluff
@winged tulip no need to set alarm at 3am. I did one at 5 when it started yesterday then another at 6.50am then another at 4.50pm before it ended. So managed 3 refines without changing my sleeping pattern
winged tulip
That's great that you naturally get up at 6.50 am. Not really relevant to me though.
novel hollow
Dusty where are you from?
@carmine lily I'm trying to think of why a Cap would be good.... i mean cashing in as much as you can means i would have got 10 Crystal pulls which would make me happy but others probably have millions and millions more than that... taking in account the greater needs for higher levels maybe no cap needed.
frozen abyss
I'm in Eastern Time, and I usually sleep from 8 PM to 4 AM. That means that the 12:00 refine leads to the choice of staying up until 10:00 for the 2nd round or hoping I can wake up before 2 AM in order to give me time for a 3rd round before noon rolls back around
earnest hornet
@real bluff also depends where in the world you are too, not everyone playing this game is in the same Timezone 😂😂

dapper drum
for every 200k raw mats you get 50 common 5 uncommon and 1 rare
make it fixed like that and they will demand the current refinery
simple spear
They can change because they rotate focus on one of the 3 basic materials. The first pic is a dilithium focused, 2nd is a par focused. There's also a tritanium one.
Seems uc amounts change as well
robust vapor
They also come in various rarities, being more or less difficult accordingly.
crisp abyss
3 events again today all ore
I mentioned this a few days ago
everyday since has been all heavily ore
The economy is busted
it's not just ships, but at lvl 30+ so many buildings/research also want crystal yet we are getting ore for all the events. We get some crystal/gas but in far less quantity
there should be a balance between the 3 of them
on rotation
makes it very hard to do anything with getting so little crystal/gas
burnt trail
Makes you mad enough to wanna buy a pack huh? Sounds like capitalism...
simple spear
It's good news for battleship owners like myself...
carmine lily
The current focus for scopely is to get everyone to upgrade their ops level to 40+. most of the new content is heavily weighted toward endgame stuff. Ore is needed in large quantities for ops upgrades as well as for many of the higher tier ships.
It's just where scopely's current focus is on driving the playerbase. they're not really about open play, they want us to do things their way.
robust vapor
You think it doesn't take large quantities of gas and crystal to hit ops 40 or upgrade ships?
burnt trail
I'm stubborn....come at me bro
abstract gate
@robust vapor indeed just going 38-39 needs all docks, defence platforms and ship hangar at 38, assuming they are 37 already (they won't be) that's around 2k gas and 2k crystal not to mention the billions of parsteel
merry fulcrum
There's a reason you see a lot of people rushing ops only to be stuck at 38 for weeks to months, lol
abstract gate
Months in my case, I hit 36 just at the start of the borg stuff and won jelly unlock...been "rushing" to 39 since
Once I'm 39 with jelly built I'm not progressing ops anytime soon 40+ is a solid paywall for f2p
robust vapor
Plus r&d and shipyard.
Just your statement kind of read like you only really need ore, but really you need thousands of all 3 🤷♂️
And yeah, I'm thinking of getting comfortable at 38. Say what you want, but should see better refinery and event rewards and so that's where I'm heading 😆
abstract gate
Event and refinery are largely unchanged at 38...keep going to 39 for the 5th dock
Ramming ore down our throats is supremely unhelpful if their aim is to push us towards breaking through the 40+ paywall...all it's achieving is to create a f2p playerbase sitting in the mid to high 30's with absurd stockpiles of uc ore
silent horizon
Not unless you have an augur, or the intrepid. At lvl 34, i burned through 14k uc ore in an instant to reach tier 4, almost tier 5. So speak for yourself when you claim you have enough ore
abstract gate
I have an augur and no ore...the ridiculous surplus of ore was a deciding factor in which epic I chose
As f2p it took me until well into lvl38 before I unlocked and built the augur...with these new monthly arcs and regular faction hunts newer players will have an easier time of unlocking epics so my experience isn't the norm
dapper drum
if you waited at 34 you would have had plenty of ore to take Augur to tier 5
abstract gate
If I waited at 34 I wouldn't have won a jelly unlock as easily as I did....750k points for me, the last guy to win a jelly needed around 3.5mil points
Besides a maxed sally and pike crew serves fine up to 39 and respected lvl faction dailys so there was no rush for an epic
dapper drum
all you need is a kehra and pike
don't even build a vahklis or kumari or any faction ships until lvl 39
robust vapor
😂 that's pretty much right actually
ashen wharf
Giving surplus in ore us completely useless theres no doubt about it people arent trying to out level their base
When miners need crystal, all the ore does jack

Or stop upgrading your ships so much 😆

solemn sequoia
@mental chasm how recent of a 39 are you? They only show up at event reset on fridays

Once you see the ascension event it will require you to be on an epic armada team and defeating it.

before battle for glory was 3x8h so 3x rewards its just 1 for 24h witj single rewards what do scopely ?
nova valley
we haven't had 8 hour cycles in events for probably close to a year now lol
fervent folio
I don't know that it's been quite a year, I remember some being that way when I started and I have not been playing a year yet. Think I started around Sept, but yeah, they've been 24 for at least the last 6 months or so
It is a change I appreciated as well
keen ledge
It's been a long while.
At first, I didn't like the change, tbh. But as time has gone on, I appreciate just having one per day.
granite zenith
except... they made it once a day... but kept the rewards the same... they didn't triple them 🤣
at 3x per day, you were guarenteed to get at least 2, if not all three done for 2x or 3x the rewards you get now
winged tulip
Yeah they could have made it as hard and rewarding as the sum of the 8h events - they were easy, the only problem was finding time to do them 3 times a day
meager galleon
I loved 3 times a day 😦
I want more diversity in game, I want random burst events, be it raiding, mining, hostile killing or something. Mini 1 hour long events that just test you/your alliance
keen ledge
I remember the burst events. Hmm.
meager galleon
1 hour Burst event for SLB and ALBs that can hit at any time but frequently enough everyone has a chance to spot them come along
keen ledge
Those were fun.
merry fulcrum
And they gave good rewards for the most part
If they could bring them back but level hand them, it'd be amazing
winged tulip
As fun as random events might be they were too rare and sometimes didn't event see they'd started till they finished. Often the ones that did happen were during my normal working or sleeping hours - just think 24h events are fairer all round.
silent horizon
Random 1hburst events will always take place when one guy or the other is sleeping or working, that is life. They are not meant to be fair. If they were often enough, everyone would get a chance at them. Not everything needs to be fair and accesible to everyone.

Panic did say there would be an event store at the conclusion of outlaws but panic is often either poorly informed or flat out wrong so...🤷♀️

I really don't understand why people think it's a shame we can't spend those points. You already did "spend" them. You got rewards from the Battle Pass with them. Why do you think you should be rewarded twice for them?
fervent folio
I mean, maybe I'm just weird, but to me that's the same thing as saying, "I spent 800 Ultra Recruit tokens and got my shards, but i want to be able to spend those Recruit Tokens again."
"I got my points, and got rewarded via the Battle Pass, but I want to spend those points again."
it's really silly
dapper drum
well we should get to use our ultra tokens again
but since we can't it just proves the earth is flat
real bluff
Can we please make BFG a reset event after it's been completed. I finished it in 11mins yesterday and today. Now got nothing to do
wise cedar
I would just be happy if they gave everyone their actual BFG trophies after they completed the solo. We have several who finished and only got the first 2 tiers so both them and the alliance gets screwed

<@&509691205798592532> Good Morning 😃. Hope you all have a great day! I was wondering if someone could answer a question regarding the current event - Battle for Glory. I am a lvl 41 and only need to have 750 pts. To complete the event...however it has come to my attention that levels 28 members have to reach 1,600 pts. Is there a reason for that?
pulsar hound
@rose sphinx the point per kill spread is different at lower levels. Generally speaking, unless a player has spent money on ships grinding the event at higher levels will take more effort
hearty raptor
Guess its harder to hit 45+ hostiles?
rose sphinx
I only need to hit 41’s for 20 pts
hearty raptor
Hm than thats weird
dire veldt
39 to 40 is a much bigger jump in difficulty compared to say 38-39
rose sphinx
The 28’s need to hit 32’s for 20 pts.
shrewd totem
Hitting lvl32s cost less compared to killing lvl41s in repair so you kill less they kill more and you have kinda a balance between different levels in terms of repair cost
