Rage against the Klingon houses event base hits seem to count when ships parked but not getting full credit for destroyed ships.
@fringe gazelle it’s all or nothing... you have to one shot it or you lost...

granite zenith
#

i disagree...
that doesnt invalidate either opinion
but why should people be limited
would you enjoy a mining event that was only in 2 or 3 systems

manic solar
#

This is calculated. They want us pissed off enough to pay for upgrades

tranquil crater
#

Server 28 is on fire, and would like to merge with some of these other servers

@deft wave needs fresh fish

#

It’s a PvP game, pew pew the pew pews for a bit and have a good time

lapis musk
#

@twilit imp The new Arc worst than before. Now we are losing out our normal events rewards (due too this pvp events). Also losing the Arc event rewards like the faction hunts and swarms. I don't see any ultra recruiting tokens in the FREE pass rewards.

bitter isle
#

If 90% ofthe server doesn't come out to play, aren't you limited, anyway?

granite zenith
#

not really... im free to roam

#

and hunt

#

and stragegize

bitter isle
#

But, harder to find anyone to hit.

granite zenith
#

and you never played hide and seek as a kid?

balmy hedge
#

I am closer to delete the game than spending more money on leveling, and believe there is more players like this than people buying upgrades.

bitter isle
#

You're limited to only others looking to make kills.

granite zenith
#

and thats fine
i SAID i was enjoying playing the event in the spirit of the event
what has discouraged me was people looking for and finding loopholes outside the spirit of the event

tranquil crater
#

And?

bitter isle
#

If this is the direction Scopely is taking, I will no longer spend money in this game. Once it gets to a point where it takes sveral months to do upgrades on ships or buildings, it'll be time for a new hobby.

granite zenith
#

I am in no way trying to make someone who doesnt like pvp like it
my issue is please plug the loopholes next time

#

its been at that point from day one @bitter isle
BUT it has gotten better... and we try to make it better every day

#

But is PvP fun when it means flying around killing low level ships doing their dailies ?

dense lantern

Our server is deader than corduroy

granite zenith
#

yes

Covid event, stay at home

granite zenith

now its more fun when they can kill you back
but blowing up stuff is fun

#

while i look for little fish... big fish look for me

#

I don't think scopley realise, people play this game because they like star trek, PVP is not in keeping with the star trek ethos. The more they move to PvP, the more thiscgame dies.

I'd like to send a bottle of complain to no one in particular as it will most likely be disregarded;
I just upgraded 8 turrets for the station event, 8! And i'm getting beaten by a guy who's 4 ops higher who just did three..

bitter isle
#

No, when the players decide what days to purge, that is where we have been for a long time. It works. Everyone knows when it is and there is no reward from the game for killing or dying.

left moth
#

Ok, I don’t understand that, I enjoy PvP against players who are nominally stronger than me but taking out minnows is like fishing at a trout farm

ashen copper

we need a compensation chest. canā€˜t do dailies with the stupid pvp event

Our server is dead now, till tomorrow 🤣

What is this new event that's going on in game I'm having issues where it says retrieving

granite zenith

No, when the players decide what days to purge, that is where we have been for a long time. It works. Everyone knows when it is and there is no reward from the game for killing or dying.
@bitter isle thats why they made an event WITH rewards

#

cause blowing up stuff is fun

hearty cairn

Okay, I don't like this PvP event. Not being specific systems sucks. I can't find anyone.

I don’t mind the pvp part of the game but this event was not thought out well.

Indeed snake eyes

We aren’t going to get a comp chest, they ran the event they publicised, it is now working as they designed it

yes does it suck if i get killed... sure

Make it fair only points for your own level or one up or down

granite zenith

but i go back out there

Make it fair only points for your own level or one up or down
@misty cove id say at least 4 levels... but i could get behind that suggestion

@wispy agate i feel the same way about mining

bitter isle
#

But, the event only brings out the predators. Those of us that just enjoy doing our dailies and chatting with alliance members while discussing our next ship or station upgrade, that's what makes the game fun for most. You have a relatively low number of predators that look for opportunities like this. This is nothing more than pandering to the wallet warriors.

tranquil crater

You keep making these ridiculous generalizations

#

ā€œMostā€ .... of the people you play with

wispy agate

@granite zenith good for you, but at least people don't fsk you the moment you turn up in system with a survey ship

Most of my server are not PvP freaks.

sure they do...

@tranquil crater i don't like mining, but like day to day work, i accept it and have to do it

Considering people are seeing MOST on their servers not participating, I think my generalization is valid.

Every time I think "wow, this is about the worst event I've ever seen" Scopely will find somthing that will be even worsterst. Sorry that the grammar of this language doesn't have a way to express the monstrosity of their failure

Why not just stick to making PVP in certain systems only then those who want to play pvp can

granite zenith
#

my miners get blown up all the time

misty cove

Majority are not playing this event so that means it sucks

Considering people are seeing MOST on their servers not participating, I think my generalization is valid.
@bitter isle not my experience

Specific systems are needed. It's too spread out rn.

It stopped space traffic more efficiently than Covid lockdowns in China

wispy agate
#

@hearty cairn at least if it were sections of klingon space then it would match the plot going on in the event

cunning spade
#

This event makes the rest of the game unplayable needs to be handled Better by Scopely. Either have certain systems for the PVP event or allow you opt out and get marked as opted out. Especially for smaller players that can be hit by someone 10 or more levels above you.

hearty cairn
#

Ohhh that's an interesting idea mr milway

#

Scopley so thick they don't realise most people stopped playing, they release a statement saying they are having connection issues with service providers

If they run the event again, can i ask they rename it Hide 'n' go seek!

orchid halo

Yeah should have just stuck to Binary Stars

Yeah should have just stuck to Binary Stars
@orchid halo Doesn't that require them to be able to count to... wait... 1?

#

Simple solution, if your shield is down you are part of PvP if its up then you are protected, show a little bubble around the ship

dawn edge
#

Most people stay now for one day at home bases, not participating. That is boring and keeps players away from doing their daillies and having fun on a weekend with the game.

I am glad it's not a required event for the pass

solar fog

Should have been a burst event not an all day event. šŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļø

By the way, GREAT event. Really. (Notice the sarcasm oozing out). So this is being bubbled up 24 hours, not even able to come out to refresh a mine, shoot Borg, shoot swarms, shoot ecb traders since everywhere you get shot for points. Kudos, Scopely. Kudos. Remind me why we play this game?

solar fog

Great day to mine

twin hedge
#

I've collected more data than ever before

hearty cairn
#

All the ship options is great. Being open to ANY system is not. Too hard to find folks willing to participate, and leaves it too open to the turds of the servers who bully others.

And our alliance score doesn't add up correctly

torpid shale

Stupid event has made the game unplayable for anyone but the pay to win brigade, no missions, no armadas, nothing except mining is safe. This is a ridiculous and blatant money pit event. It should have been limited to certain system levels to leave things open for everyone else.

worthy gazelle

If you attack whit a bs, it gets destroyed and you loose points. @unique copper

Between that and all the crashes, it's been a fun day so far

I attacked with a NS, one shot crack. Killed a docked Talla and got no points

I attacked with a NS, one shot crack. Killed a docked Talla and got no points
@unique copper has to be a warship attacking

Just get a few to leave your alliance and hit them all,day, that seems to be the thing to do

tranquil crater
#

Doesn’t explicitly say that but since the NS doesn’t risk losing points... it can’t gain points

That’s the easiest way to scam the event

As we are seeing southern

heavy cradle
#

and i never said that the whole server enjoys pvp... of course it doesnt...
however some do
yall like mining and faction hunt... i dont
there is room for everyone to have a turn doing what they find fun
@granite zenith Some of the point here is that an unbalanced pvp system that also has a punshiment for your entire alliance if you aren't good isn't going to make folks want to "try out" pvp and try to find some fun.

tranquil crater
#

The design certainly needs work

#

No argument there

#

But the idea that you should be able to opt out is bleh

@twilit imp this is the worst event you guys have ever done

The majority of my alliance members have gone off to RL. Very helpful!

sturdy hemlock
#

This event is simply pay to play! Our server is dead!

granite zenith
#

oh i can agree with that...
i would even vote for tightening the pvp bands specifically for scoring purposes

#

ive said tht before

#

bigger multipyer for hitting up then hitting down

tranquil crater
#

And actual built in objectives will be great when they come

heavy cradle

This goes back to the talks done about the gauntlet event. Make it based on hull damage done, or any number of systems.

Can you score Pts by killing a warship with a survey ship?

First time I’ve talked to my partner in a year !!

#

Can you score Pts by killing a warship with a survey ship?
@lethal quarry technically yes

but just doing forced pvp? Yeah, I can see folks paying players a $20 Tilly pack to drop tags and just throw cheap ships out

It’s been 1,231 mining events since our last open PvP/Raiding event

yes you can

That’s how it reads, so that’s what I thought.

We just tested it

base attacks have been off and on. Some folks in my alliance have gotten points from a crack, some haven't.

then your server is lagging or they made a tweak cause its been working all day

Need to break ships in base to get points

heavy cradle

best way to test is in open space combat, 1 on 1

Fair, could be banner lag

Would not be the first time

and for some people you only get the score for the first ship killed... which must be a warship

Got a level 50 just flying around cracking everyone

Why not make different systems for g2, g3 unc, g3 rare g3 epic and g4 pvp?

echo dune
late solar
#

In the past if you didn’t want to do a pvp event, you just avoided a few systems. Now you have to not leave your base. No running missions unless it is with a survey. I thought this was Star Trek and not the Purge?

simple arrow
#

The leaderboard shows we have points and ranking in green bar at bottom but we aren't in the list above. Scoring is definately messed up.

One good thing with this event, sitting in base and watching gc is entertaining, i have never seen so much negativity over one event, mining marathon with floor show, just need popcorn šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

wispy gorge
#

I would love to do PvP, make it so my Station Shield does not drop when a ship you are attacking is a half a galaxy away from your base. This event is nothing more for bigs to attack stations while you are out trying to attack ships in PvP. then you have these G4s going around attacking G2 & G3 without a care. I was trying to do an armada and was attacked. That Sally should have made sure they had more health when they tried attacking my Mayflower. If I am in an Armada which Costs Directives then I do not see how that should be allowed. What happened to PvP in zones? If you want people to sit at home and not play your game then have more of these events. There are PvP players and there are PvE players and there are games that separate them with a switch. You want to PvP then enable that mode and go do the event if not then stay in PvE mode and not be involved. there should be a cool down timer switching from PvP to PvE so you cannot use the feature to escape retribution.

The game is dead, no ships moving anywhere. I’ve never seen it this quiet. This should clearly show the failures of the pvp mechanics in this game. They finally found an event that virtually no one wants to be a part of

You have to score at least one point to get the rewards from your alliance event. We have members who scored points from a kill and then lost points from getting killed. They’re at zero or negative but don’t show up in the score. Are they not going to get rewards from this event?

Yeah so much for coaxing any participation from the rest of the alliance then

carmine lily

They had to put that negative in tho otherwise 2 alliances would just go smashing each other’s ships all day and gaming the system just like what happened in latinum rush and the raiding events

#

But a participant with a negative score should still earn alliance rewards

minor compass

It's not the scoring system that's the issue. It's that it's a galaxy wide 24hr event. It makes the reste of the game (like dailies) unplayable/un enjoyable

Well done on killing the game scoplay.

Well there’s that too of course, just trying to get my alliance to make some lemonade and get in on the rewards. We’re currently 5th on our board but only 9 people with positive scores. I’m trying to get some participation here, but the rules aren’t helping.

Reading all the comments everyone.

As with flash events, same with this PvP event, we are trying out new event types/ideas to change things up and keep things interesting aside from the roadmap features that are coming (which we posted today).

We are listening to feedback on all of these and will adjust them accordingly (or even potentially not run again!) based on players' feedback. Otherwise, we will just keep doing the same events every week and that's not interesting to everyone in the long run.

Its just the pvp ranges highly unfair

#

No one wants to fly a 33 ship out if 50 can swap

You away like a gnat

#

@toxic urchin think the consensus on this one would be not run again but use a tried and tested formula like with phindra, disco only pvp

wispy gorge
#

It is nice (NOT) when you are trying to return home and players are just sitting there waiting in your system for someone to enter the system, just so they can attack them trying to get home.

#

I think the discovery vs discovery pvp was the best pvp event they’ve done. You need two things, an opt in, opt out mechanism and a play field leveling mechanism. The discovery pvp event had both. This has neither.

@toxic urchin This event is a horrible idea...not only do we have to burn through our speed ups doing the 5 day event, now this is going on. You guys have certain groups who shall remain nameless that literally bought their way to the top and are almost guaranteed to win....it’s beyond ridiculous and not enjoyable for the rest of us. As far as the new events that you guys announced earlier, they would be fun if you all could get servers working properly without having to do emergency maintenance or having glitches at all. The amount of materials you get from refinery to upgrade ships and station is also garbage.

@toxic urchin and one more thing about this event today....a full 24 hours is just plain stupid.

misty solstice

@toxic urchin This event is enough to make me quit. I am not burning speed ups on repairs, lat, or anything else. This is enough to make me walk away for good. You don't actually care about the players and have forced an event that has stopped 85% of gameplay on S38. Congrats. People have put up shields, docked all ships and have walked away for the day.

tawdry river
#

The scoring for the PVP doesn't appear to be correct. It's scoring some ships from hitting a base, but not all. I received 500 points from killing a base with a Saladin, Mayflower, and Legionary. That should be 1200 points, but I only got 500. Where's the points for the other two ships?

It should have been like the old pvp events . Done in designated systems with designated ships

Events like the current PVP might have gone over better with more warning that it was a free for all. You haven't had anything that was all system that I can remember.

And I am out of speed ups from other prior events. Was about to quit at the beginning of this second arc after being talked off a cliff after the first arc release. The entire server I am in is almost a ghost town. People are talking about quitting left and right. Congrats.

Like I said, we are trying something different/new. It seems some players do like it (majority not though, at least on discord) and it is only a very short time event among many others for this tentpole (although we did plan a couple more this month).

We are listening and reading feedback and like we changed the flash events over time, we will modify this one too and decide how often we want to run it for future arcs, post this one (if at all).

@toxic urchin It's one thing to try something new. It's another thing to try that, take it down, put it back up, and still have the scoring be broken. If the scoring is broken, and it is, then then the event is beyond worthless.

Rage of Klingon Houses - The name implied something like Klingons have invaded EVERY System. Ships will appear and attack you at will (Similar to Enemy Status in Faction Space). something like that could have been fun. @toxic urchin

@toxic urchin Thank you for attempting to listen to the masses and bringing new content our way. I like the event, but I don't like not being able to other things in the game to further my progression (dailies specifically). Maybe 24 hrs is too long? Maybe server wide is too much? Maybe the ship choices are too far apart in power and competitiveness?

PVP events like "capture the flag" or system control could be fun. Having alliance controlled armadas (like the trainers in pokemon go) would be interesting. This? This is just "beat the crap outta the smaller guy" events.

@toxic urchin Bringing my own impressions, as well as what I collected from others in my alliance (disclaimer; I don't enjoy PVP, so I am just mining today).

  • The concept of the event is not bad, it's almost ideal for a PVP event.
  • Contrary to what others said, I like the scoring - keeps people from gaming the system by trading hits.
  • I do think it should be restricted to specific systems, for 2 reasons. First, because it lets players who don't enjoy PVP still play the game, do dailies, etc. Second, because for those who do want to PVP, makes it easier to find targets.
  • I also think the event would be improved by only awarding points for kills within the player's bracket. I'm Ops 33 - I should get points for killing others close to my level, but I see no glory in getting points for trolling players in the low 20s. Where is the challege?

The best thing scopely could do is have someone come out put their hands up and admit they made a big mistake in this event. They cant change the event but acknowledge that they messed up will go a long way and show they are listening

@patent lodge But the scoring is broken. That's a major problem.
@tawdry river that's the last thing on the mind of the majority of servers bubbled up.

I think there could be scoring based on killing up (bonus) or down (penalty) - then bands don't matter. But this too could be exploited and would need some other qualification.

The only way I can see pvp events work is this: they set up systems separately for the level 26 ships, level 28 ships, level 32 ships, level 34 ships and the 4* ships. All in their own system pvp.

#

Put a big negative point penalty for attacking someone outside a 2 level range. (No penalty for defending and winning). All this is high levels smearing little guys and bases with no resources or shields.

Perhaps add a points gained/lost reduction multiplier. The farther apart combatant ship power the greater the reduction in points gained/lost.

Implement damage/defense scaling as a factor of power differential. Could significantly change the PVP dynamic. Sure you can hit that ship/base that is above or below your power level, but there's a real chance you will be defeated. Might allow removing the PVP range caps.

Another option, Disable ability to shield your base for x minutes/hours after you initiate a pvp hit - so if you pvp you have to then actively defend your base for a few hours... so many times you get h8t and the chicken shields and you have no chance to respond

I got hit By a lvl 25 NS in swarm area. Me in a 05 Kehra... is that they way this pvp event works?

abstract gate
#

Wonder if they actually scored points for that

#

If they had lost you wouldn’t have as northstar isn’t on the list

#

I think they reset something too as I could see in the alliance list for points, now it says I’ve not participated yet

sudden heath
#

Well, I think this whole thing is Messed up..... I'm Bubbling out of it also.

#

If I was in my NS he would have died.... But, I don't hunt people in Swarm areas....

flat plinth
#

This PVP would be perfect event to run in parallel with a mega miner. Might as well get points/rss from something.

heavy cradle
#

Yes, you get points for kills in your ns, and dont lose points for getting killed.

#

Its a great loophole

rugged zenith

Basically it’s shut down swarm, hostiles for missions and dailies, Borg space, fun stuff

Amazing event, would be even better to add a solo portion to try to get the shy people out to play. I mean it really is supposed to be this way in the end but I think too many servers have become flat and boring. This was needed to spice things up a bit. Just really, go and play and enjoy your ships and the chance to try out new crew. Stop worrying about pve junk for a bit and enjoy. Insane people are complaining about this and not participating šŸ˜‚

Has warship for .2 seconds
Does not have warship

I’m just sad I wasn’t online when the swarm systems were cleared on my server. I’ve been wanting to do that forever

I bet all the servers are dead

#

Everyone is hiding

tired glade
#

Too many carebears out there

halcyon wyvern
#

Scopely didn't give any incentive to come out, only to hide.

tired glade
#

It’s not sim city

#

Yeah there’s an alliance ranked event plus beyond that bragging rights you killed some ships. Oh and you can shoot warships everywhere for the event. Otherwise it’s rinse, wash, repeat for how many more months or years šŸ˜‚

#

I’m astonished, and it’s also fun to get love letters again.

halcyon wyvern
#

Maybe they should have left floating uncommon crystal containers that can only be picked up by warships lol

tired glade
#

Back to sim city again

#

I bet gta would be better if people couldn’t shoot each other also

They also royally butchered the scoring system

Like some intern programmed a simple if/than statement

getting a lot of use out of my northstar today

Just remove the negative points for dying

Alright, where to start..

#

I will say I recognize Scopley is trying to make the game better

ashen wharf
#

Haha you mad no one wants to play with your thousand dollar ships

#

Stay mad

white garden
#

Enjoyed the event at first but looks like on my server there are alliances who have kicked out 4 or 5 players and are just repeatedly destroying them. All other players are in hiding.

fluid hull
#

I would enjoy more pvp in the game, but my server is crickets today.

ashen wharf
#

Why dont you do what your good at and buy more packs

glass storm
#

if this was paired with some sort of tiered solo event as well more people would at least come out to play

ashen wharf
#

🤣

fluid hull
#

I would recommend that you limit ship size to jellies and below like previous pvp events and make it Galaxy wide

hexed gorge
#

Bracket ops levels instead

tired glade
#

But is it our fault for allowing so much roe protections across the board instead of enjoying the game

#

Think most servers forgot how much fun they had before full roe was established

ashen wharf
#

Yeah blame the players

#

Thatll get a reaction

tired glade
#

No this no that don’t hit my ship even though I can repair it 10,000 times without worrying

#

You have no roe on your server then?

#

It’s made everyone into carebears šŸ˜‚

#

Sim city at its best

ashen wharf
#

Can you stop crying

tired glade
#

I’m not crying I’m super happy about this event

ashen wharf
#

Go buy more packs hit those level 50s

fluid hull
#

Its about speed ups for me, smaller ships will keep this a chase

fallen monolith
#

Event sucks just cheat on it to keep up since everyone hides an others are cheating

indigo perch
#

@tired glade no full pvp game ever survives. Not enough that like pvp

tired glade
#

I’ve never bought anything but the arc packs thank you

#

So EE didn’t survive?

#

Ahh kk alright

fluid hull
#

Im pve mostly, this event is a missed opportunity

tired glade
#

Cheating and exploring the event for points sucks yes. Have an alliance that does that for raiding one another.

ashen wharf
#

Eve has 340,000 players on right now

tired glade
#

Yeah why do they have so many?

ashen wharf
fallen monolith
#

Flash events suck an so does non thought out pvp events

fluid hull
#

Agreed Capt

tired glade
#

So I have never bought arc pack aside from the €20 ones for the arc and my NS long time ago but I’m almost ready to get the rest of my platforms done and start ops 39 so it doesn’t matter about that as long as you have fun and play in the sandbox

#

Flash event kinda is abusing our addictive nature to this game by making you feel like you need to be online every hr for way too many days.

#

Flash events should be a day or two max max

#

The rewards for that are not so amazing but sometimes you always want to rank up

fallen monolith
#

Well it makes me play less XD so didnt work so well on me

fluid hull
#

They wanted to get the bigger ships in, but that won't pull in anyone to be fodder

narrow hull
#

Pvp should add to the game, not lock out a large portion of players that can’t or don’t want to participate.

tired glade
#

Who hasn’t wanted to clear the swarm systems? Really it’s always littered with ships

fallen monolith
#

I was participating, stalking hunting, ect till I seen all the sacrifice ships other alliances were doing. That's when I said forget it

tired glade
#

Purge day is great

#

If you need to go do daily’s ask some people to help protect or be ready to jump

#

Or wait until the event is done

#

Little excitement

ashen wharf

Sounds boring

#

Stare at screen for 2 hours

Really are bridge trolls that play this lol

Im not shĆ­tting on this like the timed events. Those are bottle neck bullshĆ­t

and stop gates cant really enjoy something if you are limited by refinery timer

fluid hull
#

I will work on that $99 for all their shards šŸ˜’

ashen wharf
#

People would come out if they could refinery with no timer and upgrade ships whenever they gather enough

#

You also wouldnt see many ppl mining as much

obtuse wraith
#

This new "kill all player ships minding their own business" event is the worst. I have never had such a bad experience playing this game until this point, whoever suggested the idea should get fired 😐

And a bit more pvp

Trump can ban scopely lol

alpine snow
#

If they want to do flash events and pvp events, and tie it into star trek, heres a thought...
Do a red hour
Do an hour of pvp like they did the alliance flash event yesterday (3 or 4 times a day). That way people can still do their dailies and stuff, but still have pvp.

Scopely should just stick to PVP to a few systems so the rest of us who aren't interested can play as per normal.

been weird not having any motivation whatsoever to play tonight

Moreover, I even spend some money on this game but gaming experience ruined by this idiotic pvp event. 🤬

already got dailies done noone came near me

What abt the next daily reset?

we will see

Maybe they moved the Worldwide Day of Play to today and Scopley is just encouraging us off our screens?

modern estuary

lol scopely declared covid lockdown level 5

Couldn’t do mine, attacked every time, which also drained points from the members that were actually scoring for the alliance

no you dont get points won or lost for hitting miners

pvp event is only for combat ships

My official wish list for game improvements that benefit everyone

  1. Option to disable those annoying notification popups
  2. Option to disable those annoying armada notifications (without disabling attack/base attack notices)
  3. move the chat window to the bottom of the screen so you can read it easier without needing to click on chat
  4. RSS count at the top also shows protected amount on hover
  5. Bases only show raidable rss not all
  6. multi dock repairs (repair all ships at same time)
  7. option to create team chats ingame with multiple players
  8. increase the max storage on rss processors 10 fold
  9. allow alliance helps on ship tier ups
  10. allow speedups on scrapping

I would prefer Repair use NO DOCKS.. its a DOCK not a repair bay

#

It's the same tiering ships, what a joke! We can't repair 2 ships together or tier up 2.

cunning spade
#

When scopely has the guys 10 plus levels above you able to attack you in a pvp event all you can do is come out and get killed then you won’t go out if all you have is a 375 k Kumari and people withe a2 mill enterprise come out to kill you it’s insane to leave your base.

cloud grail

haha, There is a World Wide Pandemic on. STAY at home... for STFC Stay in BASE stay Safe

abstract gate

Some smaller players don't even have enough Dilithium or Tritanium to fix ships! That's their game f***ed!

modern estuary

hence increasing rss processor storage 10 fold (will also be good for raiding bases)

RAGE of the Klingon houses is a terrible event. The rage is right, because all it is are the higher level players going out in their 2 Million and higher ships and picking on everyone lower than them. I can't get missions done, I can't get dailies done because it's a frickin free-for-all and I get blown up every time I leave my base. AND THEN, if I do get blown up, I go negative and hurt my alliance score. This is, hands down, THE WORST event you have come up with. I mean, I don't like the PVP events but I can avoid them... not this one. THIS EVENT SUCKS.

pvp band should really be reduced to +/- 3 levels during pvp events

maybe designate different pvp systems based on ops level

didnt get this much by not having a shield up all the time, only time its down is when im pvping

abstract gate

I’ve not been raided that often, 5 times total I think

But I have never had that much dil

Nowhere near

modern estuary

ive had way more but when you get to 35+ the researches eat it up

8 mil is the most I’ve ever had

Literally no idea how to gain extra per day, it’s a loss every day

modern estuary

raid more

thats now most of us get it

Yeah, like when you've to fork out 25 milion Dil for Siege Warfare.... And that's 1/10!

team up with an alliance mate

What about afterwards

lol it takes a long time to get 50

without paying lmfao

Your on 42 now, so only 8 left

at 50 if they dont add more levels ill quit or just become a raid hoarder

cause the pvp chart has a 75 can hit a 50

Even they are hiding...I am a 40 but can’t dance with the 42 s and up

Other than attempted raids I don’t have contact with higher lvls normally

for pvp? yuki / marcus / carol

on sally rips apart bortas

#

even intrepids

#

rips right into the hull

tropic sundial
#

yea cause of marcus

modern estuary
#

carol skips the armor too

tropic sundial
#

no lol

#

just gives a damage boost lol

#

char is for amour

modern estuary
#

yeah cos once the shield is skipped marcus and carol shred the armor

#

yuki reduces the shield too

tropic sundial
#

marcus only dose shield piercing not amour and yea ik that

modern estuary
#

most explorers have low armor once you get through that shield you often hit hull too

tropic sundial
#

explorers have the most shields

modern estuary
#

yup and marcus skips through most of it, carol amplifies that and as exploers have little or no armor you hit hull

tropic sundial
#

carol only increases you damage she dosnt amplifie with marcus lol

#

your*

modern estuary
#

but the more damage you get through the shield into armor hurts

ashen wharf
#

Khan does better then carol as bridge

#

Depending on level

modern estuary
#

at 2% not really need khan at 4-6%

ashen wharf
#

More crit hits is more important

#

Or maybe aztebur?

modern estuary
#

i think everyone would love a pvp version of chen/tlann

true cypress
#

maybe event instead of being based off ship death, base it of player hull hp destroyed like the separatist event.

modern estuary

same bonuses but for pvp rather than pve

This event has been the biggest fail since i have been playing the game

Keep pvp to specific systems or people will quit the game. If ya can’t get daily pve activities done it will happen. I understand it’s just one day. But not smart. My whole server has gone dark lol

PvP in this Game

abstract gate
#

If $copely really want a good PvP event then here is this:
Players score points for damage dealt on other players' combat ship and point are earned and can not be lost. Then everyone will have a chance. Right now this is nothing more than "who has the biggest ship" contest.

crude atlas
#

They need to let players turn pvp on or off but once on not be able to off for so long or shield base.

#

This event is the worst I’ve seen for many players and making people quit the game.

abstract gate
#

The coding is already in place for PvE event already so there is no excuse

marsh narwhal
#

Very few on our server are engaging in actual pvp...they are farming eachother. Either they have a set who drop tags and are rewarding them with something else or people are paired up in set and farming in a group.

#

Because there is no meaningful pvp in this game. It doesn't exist.

#

This is ridiculous.

<@&509690795536941056>

how to plan a pvp event 101

  1. split up pvp into different systems based on ops level
  • this make the pvp event fairer so players 10+ levels above do not gain points hitting weaker players (its not just ops level but also research and officers that are limited by ops level that make it hugely unfair to weaker players)
  1. reduce the pvp bandwidth during the event to +/- 4 levels max
  2. give better tritanium / dill rewards to help with repairs
  3. band the solo events by ops level also so players level 40+ are not in the same rewards contests with lvl 28 players

stupid event i say.. is like giving bonus to TOP player with big ship

ionic wren

one system PVP from level 15 to 20
one system PVP from level from 20 to 25
one system PVP for level from 26 to 30
one sistem PVP for level from 31 to 36
one sistem PVP for level from 37 to 40+
everyone have chance to kill ppl and learn crew
Warships in base not give points
Simple i think and more fair

I'm thinking about downloading Eve, and bonus offers anyone knows about?

ashen wharf
#

But this is the future of for profit games

#

Dead systems

ripe orchid
#

and vega conflict in 2006 was way better quality lol

ashen wharf
#

People sad they spent thousands of dollars

#

So they continue to play

#

There was this company named kabam that did everything scopely is doing right now

#

Back in 2014

#

They got in alot of trouble

#

But it was a star wars game they made profit enough and shiut the game down

ripe orchid
#

@ashen wharf and roughly prob 75% of people they drove out would of stayed if scopely had half a brain to build an economy based game and offered a 5 to 20 a month subscription that sustained the casual player..

ashen wharf
#

Scopely has too many games to just shut down

#

So they will continue to run it till they arent profiting anymore

#

New suckers will join

ripe orchid
#

or even crazier make ftp and whales reliant on each other plus make alliance structure benefit spreading out lvl players. but hey we like pyramid schemes here bro not squares.. triangles

#

once this game took off scopely completely went in the wrong direction by far...@ashen wharf

#

I have spent a year roughly offering for s sit down... but they don't want to contact me lol

ashen wharf
#

Well they were excited people spent hundreds of k's in the first few months

#

So they decided to milk it as much as possible

#

So far star trek fans are crazier then star wars fans

#

I played the kabam game

#

They didnt spend like this lol

heady ingot
#

Well when it comes to Scopely you can't fix stupid.

ripe orchid
#

meh its a cash grab clearly...and they obviously dont want to really develop thats why we have 80 servers and not like 20 full servers

ashen wharf
#

But that game didnt have the baiting pack sales stuff

#

Where you wont be shown lower packs anymore

ripe orchid
#

thats also why armadas took over a year to "develop" only to be a simple mechanic in game..

sturdy hemlock
#

Ive been playing for a month... ivs spent several hundred dollars.... and I cant play this...

ripe orchid
#

I even went so far as to contact one of my highschool classmates that was a lead on developing games for Microsoft to ask what kind of actual issues could limit them he took a look and laughed.. Was flat out saying even the basic code is garbage..

ashen wharf
#

This was a logo my "alliance" in the star wars game made when they shutdown the game

#

now i can say i got scopelyed too

ripe orchid
#

lol

ashen wharf
#

Im sure the same people that worked for kabam work for scopely now

ripe orchid
#

I just find it funny how scopley is literally sitting on the app version of w.o.w. and is motorboating themselves in a bucket of water rather than actually realizing they a have pure gem here

ashen wharf
#

They ran to canada after a lawsuit

#

Kicked them out of san Francisco

strong kayak
#

Just wanted to add my voice to the chorus calling this "PVP" event GARBAGE

ashen wharf
#

Short term gains is how they function man

#

Whales ruin games

random vessel
#

I'm reasonably certain a player-profile profits analysis would show they make the most money on the most serious PvP players.

So this is a legitimate business decision.

I'll need to sleep on it, but I'm fairly close to just abandoning the game at this point. There is nothing fun about getting repeatedly run over by dump trucks when the only defense I have is to not play.

ripe orchid
#

I just find it funny i see at least 4 rev streams for this game and some very easy restructuring that allows all sides to win and be fresh... for all players...a depth of play that doesn't allow whales to bully with spread that can keep the game involed competitive and fun.. But at this point im not tossing it out their for them@ashen wharf

ashen wharf
#

Yeah when they took rev off as a CC i knew game was no good

#

Im nearing my time to fully abandon it

#

I didnt like rev's points sometimes but he loves the game and wanted it to be balancing and fun

ripe orchid
#

@ashen wharf lol rev was playing for likes and subscribers too but was at least fair

#

and if you do the math having 80% paying a subscription at 5 bucks churns way more that 10% spending thousands to bail at just doing the same escalation over and over again

ashen wharf
#

i just want refinery timers taken off then ill legit be happy

#

Their future plans already look like things i dont want to participate in

covert marsh
#

Congratulations scopely, after today's not thought out event. I can see by the end of the day. You might have lost 25% lvl 22 - 28 base players from server 193. I been scanning system and bases and even though the bases has been destroyed and still has rss. All war type ships I imagine has been wiped out.

ashen wharf
#

So im sure ill be gone after thanksgiving

ripe orchid
#

they have no plans just retooling over and over again

covert marsh
#

It's a ghost town at the moment with only big whalers flying through the systems

#

My alliance has given up doing their dailys

ripe orchid
#

@ashen wharf refineries should other things.. than what its doing imo..

royal idol
#

Its true. I just rejoined after 6 months and wow

#

My head hurts

wary merlin
#

All I can say is you killed most of our server with this whale kill event... most aren't even bothering

modest badge
#

It's a game, so it makes no sense to take it ..... I think you have made happy levels 40 and up ..... if they are the ones who spend a lot maybe your company policy is understandable .... continue again with this event for a while so the skies will be much clearer and you will have far fewer players to manage

ripe orchid
#

indeed@wary merlin and funny part is all they really have to do is turn the pvp event in to a form of a armada. that allows lowers to swarm and have a mixed card advantage vs a ship with power advantage.. the set cap to where its a 50 50ish balance for either side to win..

#

im 42 and im not happy@modest badge by far lol

modest badge
#

in fact, no one is playing right now

random vessel
#

They're ridding themselves of players who bring in no money but consume cost of compute power, storage, and network bandwidth -- which ain't free.

In April of last year their Revenue was over $10M per month.

I don't have to like it -- but they have the right to run the game how they see fit.

@random vessel ok, it seems clear to me

Priceless

abstract gate
#

This has actually been a lot of fun

#

Like war practice. Hunt and destroy

ripe orchid
#

@random vessel at what you are stating then they want 90%ish of players gone...

worthy idol
#

Way to make the game even less fun than the garbage burst events with this galaxy wide shutdown

ripe orchid
#

and per player want an average of 3k or more per month spent in game by the avg player... @random vessel

Wow. An event that greatly illustrates the combat level issue.

The large range of PvP combat at the higher levels is driving away mid level players. I am not using my warships until this ends.

The wide combat range may have been appropriate when few players were at that level of play but this event shows how absurd it has become.

We need to go to a flat +/+2 for all levels. Give us a chance to play.

abstract gate
#

I really like this event. Wish it would be regular. The whale alliance on our server is floating around 30th place

#

At lvl 31 i have scored on par with the alliances in the top 25 ranks

ripe orchid
abstract gate
#

I am the dude bro

#

On server 31 there is a one man alliance lvl 30 player in the top 20 for event right now

#

This is not a whale event, it's a tactics event

carmine lily
#

Looks like all the top alliances on every server have figured out how to cheat the pvp event by now. It's the raiding event all over again. Scopely never learns.

abstract gate
#

He doesn’t have lower players dragging his score down you mean

#

He doesn't have lazy players dragging him down

#

We’ve shielded so as not to ruin efforts of upper ,embers

#

Which is a bad way to run a game

#

If you do dailies you should have thousands of shields

ripe orchid
#

there isn't really tactics involved.in this event its like fishing bro lol

abstract gate
#

I have around 350 4hr shields. I can pop a few ships in borg space, then reshield

#

Each time my mayflower got hit it was -350 for the alliance so I just shielded and stopped

#

Borg space being hit too, high lvls waiting there

#

Couldn’t even do swarm

#

Warp before they hit you, find the ships you can hit. Hit and run

ripe orchid
#

peeps are just sittin high traffic and waiting lol back in the day we called that "camping"

abstract gate
#

No point, not enough rss for that many repairs

fathom meteor
abstract gate
#

If you aren't dieing, you aren't spending a lot

#

I can’t beat higher lvls, ranges need reigning in

#

And if you are dry on rss with all the free candy in arc, it's on you

waxen galleon
#

So, having a single player repeatedly crash their ships into your base can launch an alliance to first. What am amazing PvP strategy.

abstract gate
#

Always low, what candy

#

I'm on the lower end of lvl on my server

#

They have to win uss

carmine lily
#

not really, the arc doesn't give crap for resources compared with what you have to spend.

ripe orchid
#

you want whale leveling and strat how about when you finish 1st in an event you get defacto reward for the next 3 and sit out the next three.. 🤣

#

@abstract gate the arcs have gotten worse on passes not better lol

abstract gate
#

Don’t think we’ve had any dil yet from arc?

#

Do yall get raided a lot?

#

Nope

pale cobalt
#

Milestone 3 gave dil

abstract gate
#

5 times in 9 months

carmine lily
#

one set of dil in arc, barely enough to repair ships for one event

abstract gate
#

I think your doing events wrong, dil isn't even a concern for me.

#

Always is for me

#

Trit, steel, absolute tons of

carmine lily
#

dil is a concenr for everyone but the top whales

abstract gate
#

Oh yeah, i have a billion para in tokens, and around 300mil fluid

#

And around 30mil dil

ripe orchid
#

thats a level and research thing but in fairness depending on how you play and are supported can greatly affect that

abstract gate
#

But that's still way more than i spend

#

The dil given per day is far less than what is used per day

#

And I don't buy packs except arc

#

I had to stop using the Kumari completely , too expensive to repair

#

🧐

#

Everyone is hiding in their shield base and no one is playing, creating a PvP event to stop PvE. GOOD WORK for Scopely to kill this game

#

šŸ‘†

carmine lily
#

they tried this once before but included miners, game died just as quickly and they pulled the plug on the event. It seems like this time they just launched the event and said F it and went home for the weekend.

abstract gate
#

What was wrong with the system specific pvp?

#

System specific is how whales dominate

#

Disco vs disco the other day was fine

grim inlet
#

WORST EVENT EVER THIS PVP. Only big ships win and those with multi accounts killing their second accounts

abstract gate
#

I already said, if u want to go PvP event, go by damage dealt for pts and no points lose. That will actually encourage PvP. But Scopely is trying to entice players to spend $$$ to make their ships stronger

#

I'm out. Just gunna go with "git gud" here. Our server has some low level alliances drastically out performing the whales

#

How are they avoiding getting wasted?

#

No zones were safe here

#

I m happy to crash my Salladin into someone 20mil Enterpirse A if its mean i can score points earn earn rewards

ripe orchid
#

@abstract gate cause your whales aren't that bright obviously

abstract gate
#

@abstract gate cause your whales aren't that bright obviously
@ripe orchid no whales are

#

You have yhe whole server to move around in, not just one system with a whale camping it

#

The point of Disco Pvp is that you still get points for losing and it is still posible for lower level players to play and get rewards

#

Move around. Hunt and warp out

ripe orchid
#

@abstract gate there players obviously dont have patience or care on that server you could have 1/5 if the server say f that event and just try complete stuff making it good enough for peeps to be soemwhat active

abstract gate
#

I wanted to do my swarm daily, pretty much have to go to certain zones for that

#

Pay attention to what's around you. Warp before they hit you

ripe orchid
#

so technically a few alliances could be feeding that hole server too..

abstract gate
#

I pressed warp but it still did the animation and killed me, what a crap way to run a game

#

Come back later, or move to something else for a bit
