What about 2*?
Our server RoE only protects disco on mycelium
PLEASE start the mission "Liquidation" with your base is in territory capture systems and Scopely will autocomplete it for you. 𤣠𤣠š¤£
it's a nice touch that scopely has added cloaking technology into the game for these new armadas cos I cant find one!
Is the event store going to become active at some point? It seemed to show up for some players and then disappeared shortly after 12:00 EST.
prob cloaked like the armadas
Need to scan for that energy surge then.
@grizzled rapids in the FAQs for this arc, no event store
@clear flower From our dev (they are very slow):
What are they there for if not iso?
Anyone know how to drop a sector in order to take a different one?
Buyers remorse š
@nova schooner In the Special Monthly Event // Discovery Part III under the Cosmic Cleanup (Level 17+) it indicates that you can redeem Galaxy Token - Epic in the Event Store for Ship XP and upgrade parts or for Blue Prints for the Franklin and Vi'Dar.
Question: has a calendar of events been released for current arc?
@grizzled rapids i just searched āevent storeā and found these official answers
@nova schooner So which is correct?
I would go with the live QAās that i posted above
Iām betting that once the event you are referring to is actually released, there wont be token for an event store
The no event store is marked at 8:38 AM while the one that indicates at the end of the arc is after that at 9:53 AM. Hope that they actually update the FAQ with accurate information then.
This is not the end of the discovery arc. See Royās reference to borg being longer than 3 arcs
OK, gotcha, as I did see there is another Part 4, December then.
We wont know til it happens š¤£
Promise Iām just a lonely player like you lol.... server 34 here
And no, no scopely employee/welfare here, i wish though... would help reduce my expense
sorry for a query, the Cosmic Cleanup event rewards have already been sent, I still haven't received anything?
@azure vault all comes to me. Ty for the hard work everyone!
<@&509690795536941056> will there be another Georgiou event? I was very disappointed to still see Burnham as 2* chance pull instant of Georgiou (would have made more sense).
@toxic urchin are there supposed to be hostiles that give isogen.. Cause Y'all didn't release enough nodes for full servers, or was all out war over them the idea?
@toxic urchin if you territory is not challenged next takeover. What happens? Do you lose if if you didnt opt in?
I seen those, but it was gone before we had a group to hit them
assimilation of server 40 has begun...
Do your territories have to connect? as in your 1* touch your 2*?
<@&509690795536941056> can you answer that?
if you territory is not challenged next takeover. What happens? Do you lose if if you didnt opt in?
@unborn anvil If your Alliance owns a zone, you'll be auto-joined into its next takeover unless your leaders Abandon it before then. If no one else challenges it and scores more points than you, you'll keep it.
Do your territories have to connect? as in your 1* touch your 2*?
@strong aurora Yes. More specifically, there needs to be a warp path between them. See the "rules" linked in Official Announcments for more details.
@lime raft what about the resources to start a takeover. What if we dont have enough for a restart and the next week it goes unchallenged. Does it auto join without the expense?
I cannot complete the missions. Will territories open up for me after the events?
You don't need to pay the resources when auto-joining from a zone you controlled already
The zones will open up more broadly in a couple days to people who haven't completed the event yet
How many days it intended to have a full alliance refining for before they might be able to take a t2 zone?
As for the earlier question about event store - there is no full event store this release, though there may be events that use the tab to allow selection of rewards. This is not the end of the content arc though, which as stated is when the event store typically comes.
Liquidation mission, anyone know how to fix this, attack 8 hostiles in your home system, now living in capture space and no hostiles, other members have tried relocating to old system and it doesn't register kills, and clicking mission locate sends you back to capture system? How the hell are we supposed to do event missions? Issue after issue with them š©š
@inland mural please see official announcements - you can file a CS ticket to have them complete it for you
@lime raft thank you ššš
The event was removed a bit after launch, the rewards will be going out to players later due to the mistake
No announcement?
Bit off topic question... but why we are not able see in systems that are currently claimed by our alliance?
@quaint timber I think the event said mine outside of capture territories, where does you mine.
@abstract gate there was announcement 4 hours ago in official-announcements
So,another brilliant move by scopely.... have a mission to kill 8 hostiles in home system. No hostiles in my home system and moving base does not fix it.
This new content sucks
@sudden ledge please see the most recent official-announcement; you can file a ticket to have that mission advanced
Canāt...... I have a ticket in already because I bought the pvp pack and did the research and it did not complete the research event for me
I have to wait until they take their sweet arse time to answer that one
they do take their time with the tickets.
Got it, sorry to hear that. We are working on a fix for that mission as well which should help those currently stuck.
(even without a ticket)
I sent one in over 2 weeks ago asking to be moved to a dual android and iOS (for bluestacks) setting and got no response back. Kinda sucks, ngl.
So to do this and miss missions/events is really frustrating if they don't fix it.
I can understand that, I am sorry it's been taking a while, there's a lot going on but CS is trying to get through their tickets in time.
fair enough, but 2 weeks? Man, if the new issue is going to be fixed in 2 weeks I might aswell stop playing this event now lol
Maybe they wouldnāt have so many tickets for resolve if things got tested properly before sending out new content?
@tough cliff was under the impression that dual iOS/Android was not possible? Last time i asked, they said that bluestacks was not supported and i couldnāt switch between the platforms
@lime raft So we getting iso hostiles or what?
Has anyone seen a map of the new Origin Territory that shows what material or resource is available for each system?
@thin falcon once you visit each system, you can see it later anytime you want
What recourses are there, not the actual system
@thin falcon once you visit each system, you can see it later anytime you want
@potent crown Yes. I've done that. My alliance agreed that if we had a map that showed it all it would help us strategize. The visual would help.
Takeover so far sucks for alliances that don't have high level people. Way to exclude from takeover.
@lime raft sorry for the ping, but I'm wondering about the particles (phantom, quantum and the other one) and if there is a event for them that will be launched.
Or do they just automatically come in?
@merry fulcrum just like the description says, there will be Isogen mining events in the race systems. You will need to own the system. They are rewards
@nova schooner
You need to wait for a mining event, just like the description says.
If scopely told us when events would happen, that would mess up their business model \
Right now, the way to get those particles is though the $tore. If they had the events that gave them to you right off the bat, ppl wouldnt buy them in the store
Anyone know if territory capture warp paths will be unlocked outside of the grind event? Mining is locked up because there are so few nodes
Stated in the faq
After the current event, the 3 diamond req for the mission to unlock will be removed for the missions, and theyll be available to people under lvl 25
I did read the FAQ, never saw that. Thanks for replying with info though
Has an event schedule for Arc 3 been posted yet (that I cannot find)?
Go to Alliance, then territory, in that screen will be a store
Thx
Mini Event store has popped...is there a calendar of events somewhere?
Anyone else not receive their points for the Least of Me quest that was introduced during this event. Iāve completed all stages of the quest, but not received the 5 points for it. Yes, Iāve reloaded the game as well.
@frank stump the least of me is worth 5 points, you have 5 points, am I missing something?
I have completed both The Least of Me and I Am Everywhere, but have only received points for I Am Everywhere. Got nothing for The Least of Me. @wanton cloud
did you buy a points pack or something?
No, I just went through the mission arcs.
i mean i haven't completed the first chain yet due to no hostiles in my home system issue but, you couldn't have obtained both sets of mission keys yet
so i don't think you could have done two of these missions
It opens up the second one once you finish I Am Everywhere.
was that the mission that needed the 10 keys? @frank stump
just checked... ive completed that. the keys were rewarded in milestone4 of Battlepass
mines only showing that i've scored NOTHING
Completing that one opens up The Least of Me story arc
i mean i don't know for sure as i can't yet complete the first chain due to the issue i mentioned, but it wouldn't really be consistent with what every other arc has been like
you most likely have a mission in your log @abstract gate
nope... completed them
got the rewards
but not registering on the event milestone
then put in a ticket
just emailing screenshots š
the last mission however is worth 20 points, which should get you everything
ive done the first two... so should be on the 10pts milestone.
Sorry for the delay. Working alliance chat too. Lol. Yep same situation here.
So I gather nobody actually knows (factually) where the "Boiling Point", etc mission(s) can be found?
Wow, another PVP event crashes and burns. STFC will never have a pvp due to the money packs
Why bother with pvp anymore. Its a waste of time
So, on my server 49 this roll out is, politely, not going well ā at all. Weāre losing F2P and P2W alike. Everyone is unhappy. Bigs are mad they have negotiate with smalls. Smalls feel HORRIBLY frozen out especially because this rolled out 25+. Even keeping my own crew together in context of the later has been incredibly demoralizing and made this game so much less fun. Please do something to fix / balance this out ā Iām not sure this roll out was ideal and I have a lot of people that have been made to feel āless thanā by it. Thatās not why we play games ā theyāre supposed to be fun.
I think you nailed it. Its just not fun at all. The last event that i enjoyed was the Borg events. I guess Scopley cant figure it out either
If we want to enjoy and and have fun why the hell they have insane paywall
Thanks, I appreciate that. I get itās hard to keep everyone happy but if the reason was āload balancingā maybe let the 14-20ās try first?
They want money is ok but it's too much greed now
I myself and pausing and taking a step back. This constant pitting Alliances and players against each other to squeeze more money out of them is just plain greed.
This event is probably the most fun I've had in a long time
I mean thatās ok itās a business ā but the F2P make the whole user world. Why deliberately make them feel bad? It was unclear -25 would be unable to refine and we were all excited! Everyone worked all day and night! Then it was like oh womp. And weāve got 20+ active just feeling crappy
It's a lot more fun to people who don't mind pvp or want it
Virtually everything else is pve
I'm free to play and I'm a 33 /:
Thatās nice Iām talking about balanced play equity ok? Iām not talking about just myself but rather how the crew feels, thatās the purpose of this channel right?
Eclipse felt very boring, my alliance does so many of them and it's just boring in general.
I just upgraded to 24 before maintenance in order to get good battle pass rewards but still in dilemma as they didn't give event store which have helped me! I'm f2p purely so can't jump to 25 soon
No event store for anyone
That's next arc
You should have it relitavely smooth until 28
They could have told before maintenance about event store
Now can't complete dailies
It's still to advance, 24 is a nice level, you have the kumari
Iām gonna leave this for whoever runs this with the first comment at 20:49 take care
Well it's the only way an old guy like me gets to play capture the flag, but I cant spend 100 just for access so I guess I'm out. It looks like fun but I guess I'll never know...
I had 6 months of loyalty tokens that I saved for dvor, but now have to wait 1 more month to get it
Is our server different somehow? I'm reading a lot of people talk about paying to get access to the new space... none of us had to pay anything :/
Why doesn't Scopley put a level cap in where you can only attack +/- 5 from your current level
everyone will have access after the intial gated rollout... that was confirmed by the devs
Why doesn't Scopley put a level cap in where you can only attack +/- 5 from your current level
@fluid hull cause raiding someone 10 levels above you is so profitable
Origin space unlocks when the event timer for āunlock origin spaceā runs out
For everyone
Well it's the only way an old guy like me gets to play capture the flag, but I cant spend 100 just for access so I guess I'm out. It looks like fun but I guess I'll never know...
@indigo perch you can access the systems without spending
A cap will be the only way you can have a successful pvp event in STFC
Cant start a capture event without spending
There isnāt really a route to spending to unlock it directly anyway afaik. Takes patience and team work to juggle Isogen mines or you kill a lot of hostiles or a mix.
Nobody in our alliance spent to start a take over
Cant start a capture event without spending
@indigo perch still not true
Huh? I'm already smashed by the ships one level above me doesn't make a difference between that or if it's some 4* ship
We just refined a lot of Isogen together
Moreover there should be alliance choice as who they allow to mine and other benefits in their territory as their are many sister alliances
We refined 3/4 of the isogen needed before anyone spent
sister alliances = less people to raid...
@granite zenith still absolutely true, come out of your ivory tower an play by the rules the rest of us live by.
You have to plan the event out, you share the nodes with your alliance mates and do what you can to make sure you can win
I believe there is a goal to bring diplomacy into the mix but they were not able to do so on initial release. It may be a future feature or it may not be possible.
i wish i had an ivory tower... i wouldnt be struggling to pay my rent...
We are nearly 100 people who can't fit in single alliance so made a sister alliance
@granite zenith still absolutely true, come out of your ivory tower an play by the rules the rest of us live by.
@indigo perch I'm free to play and think it's a good content drop, usually events take lower levels completely forgranted, but I can fly a realta around orgin space, this space is accessible to everyone
you can earn enough to do a takeover with no money spent
now if you want instant access... yeah you might pay for that...
You have to buy the opportunity to try to takeover. My team couldnt start one even if we could pool resources. True statement.
You should have fun for take overs then, own an entire block of 10 systems @mint kraken
Once the 3 day event is over every level will get access
then i pity your team
@indigo perch not true.
Like I said before, you needed to make sure everyone does the event
Everyone refines and does the Armadas
@merry fulcrum Ihave access! Pay attention! I dont have the resources. I'm the king of grind dude.
Moreover as we mine and get opc one from same alliance can't take it, rather enemy steals away that's not good
then dont be opc...
We have one territory and nobody has spent on these materials
You should have fun for take overs then, own an entire block of 10 systems @mint kraken
@meager galleon yeah
@merry fulcrum you are absolutely clueless....
@merry fulcrum Ihave access! Pay attention! I dont have the resources. I'm the king of grind dude.
@indigo perch this is an alliance thing not a solo thing. You seem to be pulling your weight, doesn't sound like your alliance is
Im clueless and I'm free to play who managed to organize a group to take on an alliance that was way larger than us and we beat them 2/1
The entire point of the game this year has been slowly being pushed into a more active larger alliance
Unfortunately you will never please some people nowadays, itās always someone elseās fault and they couldnāt possibly be wrong š
āFake newsā
Haha
It also depends on personal experiences, each server has a different style with it
Different cultures
Are there plans for a more expansive event store similar to Stella/Vidar arc 3?
Yes, in arc 4
Thanks. So gotta wait another month or so
<@&509690795536941056> will there be another Georgiou event? I was very disappointed to still see Burnham as 2* chance pull instant of Georgiou (would have made more sense).
Leela, I wonder why you didn't respond on my Q.
I started liquidation mission while stationed in a territory my alliance captured. I relocated my base to kill hostiles in another system but it's not counting towards the 8 kills to move forward. The yellow point is showing in the system where my base was located when I reached that part of the mission. I'm required to kill hostiles in this system but there are no hostiles in my territory to kill. How can this be resolved?
@void venture this is a known issue for the mission. You will need to message CS about the issue for it to be resolved.
I put in a ticket before messaging here. CS takes forever to respond. I was hoping someone had shared how CS fixed it
Understandable. Hopefully CS gets back to you soon about the issue.
I put in a ticket before messaging here. CS takes forever to respond. I was hoping someone had shared how CS fixed it
@void venture thats why you set the Announcements channel to give notifications, that was announced hours ago #ā-official-announcements
then you would've know about the issue before you went to the territory system and did the mission
@merry fulcrum Ihave access! Pay attention! I dont have the resources. I'm the king of grind dude.
@indigo perch yea we as an alliance were able to and no one paid a dime for the access of doing a takeover....so you are actually the one who is clueless... or go to a better alliance
š
hey guys can you recommended a system with g4 ore and crystal nodes
Where can we find a schedule for the takeover territory capture events?
If my alliance takes 2 territor with the same bonus, does it stack?
If my alliance takes 2 territor with the same bonus, does it stack?
@upper knot yes
Wow, thank you
I put in a ticket before messaging here. CS takes forever to respond. I was hoping someone had shared how CS fixed it
@void venture by completing the mission for you
Is the event store staying, or was it just because of the issue with the event disappearing yesterday?
I think it will stay, assuming that the event is fixable - that currency was a reward from the event and according to in game news it is repeating each Wednesday.
That makes for at least 3 more of those particular event, and we may see that currency appear in rewards for other events too.
quick dumb question i am sure has been answered i just can't find it. If base is house in alliance owned territory it can be attacked correct?
yes
@nova schooner It's absolutely possible
@earnest hornet I wish I had know about it! I would have moved my base prior to starting that mission. Comment in the future if you have something of value to add. Being basic isn't funny.
@granite zenith thanks for the feedback
@earnest hornet I wish I had know about it! I would have moved my base prior to starting that mission. Comment in the future if you have something of value to add. Being basic isn't funny.
@void venture thats why I'm saying that, if you have the Announcements Channel notifications turned on, then you would have been notified, so it would help if you turned them on for future, so it may not happen again. I wasn't being basic, i was trying to help you for future reference
How to get phantom particles ect without buying them? Anybody knows?
Anyone know if the zone buffs stay active as long as you control the zone or you need to repurchase them every week?
Is it by design we can't have 2 tier 1 territories that are not connected? We had thought about starting with two apart from eachother and working around map that way
Yes, once you capture one zone you can only take over adjacent zones
hi guys do you know when is ops 20 event happening again?
Complete the "Unlocking the Origin Sector" event then claim the next set of missions in the gifts
We had 2 arcs with multiple recruit burnham events, why no more recruit georgiou events in this arc?
Will there be any āauctionā type events at all during this arc?
there will always be auction events
You have to turn in the mission. I did the same thing
Oh, the one I can pay raw isogen for in the Gifts section?
The current event is absolutely not balanced. How should someone who has a real life ever going to get on in this game? I mean that the developer wants to earn money is normal, but that's not nice anymore. I don't have time to shoot level 22 enemies for 6 hours just because I don't have a ship that can handle 2 million enemies. And that also twice in a row, what's wrong with you guys?
I have the feeling the events are only designed for the high level and for paying players.
it is based on HULL DAMAGE done,so just sacrifice some ships to bosses by using BURNING crew so you do extra damage
can do it even with a fortunate but gonna take a lot of trips
Arix as cap+Nero+someone else to max synergy
Thereās no elevator to success.......you have to take the stairs.
that event was a lot of fun when I/my server was low levels.had to coordinate with alliance to kill bosses for a separate alb
If you take the stairs you don't get the necessary missions because you don't reach the goal. I have a Real Life and not unlimited time
well then skip the event and focus on others? you dont need to do all the events to finish battlepass,you can skip a few but I dont know exact amount
Wow! I put in a ticket to get my liquidation quest fixed and support closed the ticket but they never fixed the mission. Outstanding customer support!
And that's where the problem lies. In the worst case, the missions will no longer be unlocked.
@TheBatMan
@sudden ledge Give them a minute or two, might still happen. Took about 20 min for me yesterday evening.
They closed the ticket 6 hours ago
So I completed the missions and unlocked the second set of missions but the warp path is still locked. Do I also have to max out the event?
I see people complaining that they had to mine 24k of iso but I mine mission was not in the thousands...
<@&509691205798592532> can you confirm this is correct. I have already collected the 10 Discovery III mission keys and taken one mission, yet the remaining keys amounts donāt allow me to collect all the remaining mission sets. Or am I missing something (could be...)?
Seeing double shouldn't be there if you have already claimed it
yeah
Nope, no points
You guys are losing players. People are getting really tired of having super expensive researches nullified with every new money grab research tree
What the territory update has shown, is the incredible imbalance between players and how 1 high level player can totally dominate an entire zone without breaking into a sweet. When bees want to kill an Asian hornet, they don't attack it one at a time.. Fix the imbalance or this entire update will be a loss to a huge % of players.
We can call release 24.1 the "Fixed an issue" release..
Water it down further and its a dead event
The whole event thing is dead when one finishes and collects the unlock mission but they don't unlock the space.
@fading gorge did you recall the ship to finish mission?
Yes. And collected the mission rewards
Restart
The warp trail is still locked
Ok, I'll give it a shot...
Didn't help. I even cleared localization
I unarchived every mission looking for something but the unlock mission series I collected didn't reappear.
@twilit imp Unlock origin sector mission closes in 26 days. Based on how few isogen mines we were given outside of origin zone it seems very likely that some of us will not get access to one and will therefore not be able to open this mission. Does that mean we will be locked out of origin zone forever?
I've not finished the event, but the warp trail states mission so shouldn't it be unlocked?
@shrewd totem
š¤¦š»āāļø how did you collect the mission in gifts tab if you havent finished event?
@stark marsh read the pinned post in #š-galaxy-chat
This is what remains in my gift tab...
See the unlocking the origin sector mission?
You need to do that not tutorial mission you got
... wasn't the tutorial mission named the same thing?
Not sure
Wow, they couldn't have made this more confusing. A tutorial mission, an event, and an actual mission all named closely enough to not easily differentiate them...
@stark marsh read the pinned post in #š-galaxy-chat
@shrewd totem Needle in a haystack, 𤣠𤣠cannot find, but no bother. There is plenty to do in game without origin sector..... PvP via mining seems odd anyway. Cant imagine William the conqueror turning up at hastings and saying "men, we need to mine the **** out of this land and then we will command all of england 𤣠𤣠š¤£
@shrewd totem thanks for pointing that out āŗļø
it is the 2nd pin from top@stark marsh
it is the 2nd pin from top@stark marsh
@shrewd totem I have scrolled up on galaxy chat and still cannot reach the top of it. I think there must be a few years worth of messages 𤣠𤣠Not to worry, like I said its a part of the game that isnt compulsory and the main game doesnt require to progress so I am not too bothered. Thanks for trying to help though, much appreciated.
are you sure you are looking at pinned posts? š icon in the top
this is what it says
- Currently, the "Unlocking the Origin Sector" chest in the Gifts tab requires 100 3^ Isogen to unlock and requires being level 25+.
- You can get this resource by completing the current event "Unlock the Origin Sector" over the next 3 days
- After the event ends, the gift chest that unlocks the space will become free. The Isogen cost will be removed, and the level to collect will be lowered to 15+.
@shrewd totem so what is the point of having it as it is now? Surely everyone should just wait for this 𤣠𤣠𤣠Gotta love the madness, often more entertaining than the game
early access
I actually quite like the early access events because 9 times out of 10 they have the best rewards as well as the early access
@shrewd totem so what is the point of having it as it is now? Surely everyone should just wait for this 𤣠𤣠𤣠Gotta love the madness, often more entertaining than the game
@stark marsh to combat lag
@shrewd totem do you know why it was felt a territory battle style mechanic would be best done in such a complicated way? Most people still completely bewildered by it. Surely would have been easier as a straight battle for territory via random match up and prizes for results? The whole pay to access zone, pay to gain buff and use buff, the coordinating alliance so everyone gets benefit of buff etc. etc. is a bit over engineered and just gives more chances for things to go wrong when the main game still isnt working correctly 100%
early access
@shrewd totem thats pony, early access? We are already in the event, early access would have been before the event started..... or am I being thick here?
@shrewd totem thats pony, early access? We are already in the event, early access would have been before the event started..... or am I being thick here?
@stark marsh early access like buying a discovery before its unlocked for free... vs waiting a week
@stark marsh to combat lag
@granite zenith 𤣠𤣠𤣠𤣠I hope this is a little joke mate, cause the lag on my login is awful..... and now I get odd things like toaster notifications not leaving screen, double surveys showing on node, etc.
O> @stark marsh early access like buying a discovery before its unlocked for free... vs waiting a week
@granite zenith ah, ok.... but we knew that was the case with disco. Wasnt clear on this event, but makes sense. Thanks, an answer I can understand š š š
Ok. Question. Should i update now or wait
thats bugs that are getting fixed today
not lag... as in you cant target a ship... you know... the stuff that happened during flash events?
Ok. Question. Should i update now or wait
@scenic cloud do you like the current bugs... or do you wanna fix em?
if you have none of the bugs listed in the fix post in #ā-official-announcements you are a lucky man
Oh i have them. Its bug management i do well
thats bugs that are getting fixed today
not lag... as in you cant target a ship... you know... the stuff that happened during flash events?
@granite zenith I can sense you getting annoyed, so I wont point out that I didnt say the bugs were lag.... oh, wait I just did 𤣠𤣠sorry, I couldn't resist. I am such a child
no not annoyed... just woke up...
128 mb. !!! Omg
The lag is no where near as bad as it was during the flash events whole systems were frozen no ships moving at all
The lag is no where near as bad as it was during the flash events whole systems were frozen no ships moving at all
@pale cobalt which is why they gated the entrance into territorys with a grind event for 3 days before a full game unlock
Targeting is still a bit of an issue at times but a lot better than it was
There is one bug I do like not saying what it is because scopely are watching and I don't want them to fix it š¤£
HELP, On mission "liquidation " says to hit hostiles in home system. NO hostiles in territory space. Didn't help to move base
@jolly nymph Answer is in #ā-official-announcements
Basically the answer is āBu???r we didnāt think of thatā when people started relocating to territory space
Who has recently gotten an iss jelly through the event? Need to get an idea of how many unc and rare g3 and g4 mats I need to win
Plan in the tens of thousands most likely
honestly they have been running so many auctions lately... our last one was like 5m points... really low for our server
Please clarify for me, if you own the territory your alliances bases there can shield.. correct?
yes... if you own it you can renew a shield
Thanks
Has an arc event calander of events (or possible events) been posted yet?
just what is written in the news center
Seriously, a isogen mining event when there are not enough nodes for 90% of the server. Is it part of a master plan to kill the game?
Where do I get the particles needed for the new research tree?
So when is the emergency maintenance???????
Nave to restart every time I jump off a node
This is garbage
Scopely laughing? Mine iso event šš»
Well done scopely for a mine event when there is not enough node so much bs. CANCEL THE EVENT
Go capture a territory and you should be good
Interesting milestones in the mine isogen event, 160k g1 isogen, I'd have to mine, at a little more than 10k an hour with nodes almost impossible to find, I'll pass, I need crystal, just not that desperately
40k an hour here on a node
Only good to capture a territory if you a whale or top 2 alliance
We have 3 who have them all and just gobble them up when a smaller alliance try to capture
Every point the majority of players have said about this event is happened. Its a whale event and now a whale daily event. Your pushing you players away. Revdeuce said it spot on last night
We have 5 alliances on them, one each, well one alliance captured one just to be the first then abandoned it and captured a different one instead, but most on the server don't have access to a territory
My alliance has access. We have plenty of members but can't compete with the top few alliance which are all level 40+
Alliances with territories on our server are still mining in the other systems with multiple ships. Itās a nightmare.

@torpid light same here they mining territory and other systems and protecting them with iss jelly and bigger
Yeah let my 1.2ship take on a 4m enterprise
Still waiting on the particles scopely
This trying to mine very very few nodes is ridiculous. Start turning parsteel nodes in lower levels into iso nodes so everyone can maybe get this event going.
This trying to mine very very few nodes is ridiculous. Start turning parsteel nodes in lower levels into iso nodes so everyone can maybe get this event going.
@copper bison also bear in mind... the unlock event is designed to slow entry down... after the event it will be unlocked for everyone
@copper bison but then they can't sell iso packs.
@granite zenith that is no benefit to todays event
todays event meaning the unlock? what i am saying is you CAN ignore the event if you so choose
oh nevermind,,, new event š¤£
didnt scroll that far yet
Not even doing iso events. No reason to try with so few nodes
Ack, waiting on these still
If you have territory you can easily do the event
So rally your alliance to get on and get a territory
@merry fulcrum you mean if your a whale or the 1% of players in a server in the top 2 alliances
Huh? There's been 8 takeovers already
You can only take a territory adjacent to yours
So once the whales have their territory, every territory is up for grabs without them competing
you need to spend to have a territory this early
not true...
Yes and the territories is owned by the top alliances only
Not if your alliance is active and shared the node, 70+ can easily get a territory day one @shrewd totem
kaution said yesterday they earned enough to takeover with no $$
And alliances can complete for other territories as long as the 1 then the 2 next to the one
and how many 70+ active alliances left in the game?very few....
Yes and the territories is owned by the top alliances only
@patent lodge we've got alliances that aren't top 5 in orgin space start organizing your guys and talk with other alliances to help you out. Not hard
and how many 70+ active alliances left in the game?very few....
@shrewd totem we have about 65/70 fully active alliance
What's funny was how back during cow you said the exact same thing I'm saying right now, merge alliances /: @shrewd totem
You've come full circle
when I was saying that,50% of people didnt quit.but after recent Disco show,most did
Plus there no more 1* isogen capture available for 17 hours
Discovery didn't really change much on our server, so idk, more people were busy irl and came back after a few weeks to a few months. More of our guys left during augment arc
despite update im still getting stuck notifications
Discovery didn't really change much on our server, so idk, more people were busy irl and came back after a few weeks to a few months. More of our guys left during augment arc
@merry fulcrum I know last few arcs have made people quit because this game has become too much of a grind and not one you can pick up do a bit come back later do more......with the isogen the have made the grind so bad again
Mine isogen event is a joke ist it? 50 nodes for 4000 players?
yeah even with 2 captured territories still not enough iso mines to go around
@velvet crypt you think yours is bad this is the same for all nodes for us
This is 24 hours apart
This was just after most ship where killed by the whales. They regularly clean the ISO Systems
ridiculusnthis new resorces.. so litte nod impossible to do event
This game has become even more stupid and greedy and and andš© š 
i need to spend 12.5 hours on an iso1 mine and to do one refine just to complete this event. how is everyone going to complete it?
This game has become even more stupid and greedy and and andš© š
@unreal fjord this event had so much promise and has been ruined and made it a whale and top 1% only. Making the gap bigger. Making the 95% of regular players not want to play or take part. Eventually this game will be 1 server with 200 players who are the ones who plow all the money into scopely
@lofty isle its 3 days ,so hopefully you can refine at least twice
I beg they won't put the survey out for this arc
Even if.. They ignored all other Feedback
Just like they said, in 3days territories will be unlocked for all. By then the whales will have all the zones and won't be worth even looking at. Just like by the time they do add extra nodes it won't be needed by the 95% because there won't be any need to mine unless they suddenly make up the level gap.
Or make the pvp range tighter
Be nice if they limited an alliance to only having one t1 territory, that way they wouldnt need to add any mines
Be nice if they limited an alliance to only having one t1 territory, that way they wouldn't need to add any mines
@alpine snow thats a brilliant point then the majority of the rest of the alliances have a chance for something
The whales on our server just send their 23mil ships to your alliance space and kill all your miners as soon as they try to mine. That is if your alliance is able to even capture a territory. Terrible content.
I could go for iso refinery having a 6 hour cooldown š
The phased rollout of territories is actually hurting the game. If all the territories opened up at once (or at least in large waves), and there was a cap on how many you could compete for at once, then at least there would be one week where a wide variety of alliances would hold a zone (to see the benefits, mine the materials and progress the research, etc.). Of course, the servers might die a horrible death...
Any place to get quantum, surtax and phantom particles outside store ?
Iāve explored all
I have a new idea how to frustrating our player........
Let do new content with defenetly not enough nodes to grind for it, so they really gets fu.cked up šŖšŖšŖšŖšŖ
If my alliance has a 1* territory and we want another 1* territory does it need to be linked to the 1st one?
@> If my alliance has a 1* territory and we want another 1* territory does it need to be linked to the 1st one?
@upper knot yes it does
Does anyone know if the alliance that owns a territory has to pay the takeover fee every 7 days, or if the owner is automatically included in it?
Because letās face it if you have to pay 100k cores for holding a teir 3 territory every week thatās going to be difficult.
if you own it you are reentered free of charge
Thank you
The example info made it look like 2* and 3* were only usable if connected to your 1*.
but that doesn't mean you can't get and utilize a 2nd 1*
that isn't connected
you can start at any tier 1... after you have one you must have connected warp paths
Any place to get quantum, surtax and phantom particles outside store ?
@inner cave they will be intorduced sooooooon
@shrewd totem we have about 65/70 fully active alliance
@patent lodge
We are 78/78, with 90-95% activity
but that doesn't mean you can't get and utilize a 2nd 1*
@upper knot
You can activate multiple buffs from zones, but only if you are area is contiguous from what I've read.
Thus yes, you can get another zone away from your others, but you won't be able to activate the buff.
but if you own 2 different 1* territories that are not connected can you activate 1 and not the other? How would the game determine which one is connected to itself and which one isn't?
whichever one you activate first, you can activate. The 2nd one wouldn't be connected, so you won't be able to activate it
unless you abandon the 1st
So, if we own 2 but don't activate either of them then we can use either of them as a launching point to take other territories?
I think you should be able to use either of them, regardless of buffs, to capture 2<> territories
@upper knot
You can activate multiple buffs from zones, but only if you are area is contiguous from what I've read.Thus yes, you can get another zone away from your others, but you won't be able to activate the buff.
@heavy cradle no... after your first territory... any additional territories have to have a connecting warp path
yes you can activate multiple zones... but if you are cut off from a zone... you will lose that buff when it expires
I am still not clear on this. If I own 2 zones that are not connected and no others. Does that mean I can't get the bonus from either of them?
straight from the blog post
you can start anywhere on the map with 0 territories
after you own one... you can only takeover one that has a direct warp path
ok, that's it
thanks for the clarification there @granite zenith
Thanks for info @granite zenith
you are most welcome
thx for the info. helps a lot
my pleasure... glad to be of service
@toxic urchin or anyone else. In the Origin Sector, will the races in each zone stay fixed? or will they eventually move and rotate like the services? Like will the systems that are currently Suliban or Trill, will they stay, or will they evntually rotate and Breen moves into those systems?
you want a guess or nah?
As a little observation - having a single takeover every hour makes this map easily manipulatable by a small number of power alliances. I feel like having more territories up for grabs at once would potentially be a way to "fix" this, that or make it where only the teams that "buy in" on a takeover can be in the systems.
Right now we have the "big teams" spending a lot of time in systems they don't buy into, to make sure that certain folks take systems. This is both cool, players helping players, and bad.
wow a month of mining š¤
@granite zenith if that was in reference to my questions, I'm fine with an edcucated guess. My own guess is no, they won't change so that it forces allaince to have to keep moving and keep the conflict going over zones. The services will change but the races wont. So you can't do 2/3 of the research tree unless you constantly take over other parts of the sector. That's my guess, how about you?
On our server there are about 6 major alliances, so we're in talks to divvy it up instead of having massive wasteful conflict each time. If that is indeed how it will work, that's going to make it interesting on how to rotate zones to make sure everyone can have access.
war is more fun š
maby for you, but i get ahead faster if im not in a war
Could we get some,faction hunt or other events that actually give us decent rewards? We havenāt gotten ultra shards in how long or events that give good uncommon rewards as well
Oh wait I forgot you want us to buy those
afternoon folks, sorry if this has been asked..but this channel is busy.......Do all 5 of an alliances captured territories have to be connected? Is a set of level 1,2,3 territories then a second set of level 1,2 possible?
thanks Snake
š
The lack of nodes is getting more ridiculous by the day. Sort it out scopely
Can't get on game
The game down?
Scopley, your pants are down
Maybe it will come back with 500 extra iso nodes š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£
Oh wait, they preemptively gave us a maintenance chest
Not got much sheild left
@granite zenith could your takeover zone be split? Ie get 5 adjacent zones then give up one in the middle, effectively splitting your zone?
Here we go
!chest
Whatās happening
@granite zenith could your takeover zone be split? Ie get 5 adjacent zones then give up one in the middle, effectively splitting your zone?
@acoustic yoke no
We have mines being taken with no hits and now the game has died
What happens if you lose the battle for a middle zone while still having zones on each side?
We have mines being taken with no hits and now the game has died
@gilded nebula hope they put extra nodes on lol
the buffs on the ones not connected turn off
Someone is managing to get miners to attack and move off nodes, then stealing them
Wonderful, thanks for the help @granite zenith
Interesting. It says you won't be able to activate services, but doesn't mention you can expand your territories
Its probably the servers struggling with so much activity in 3 systems DUE TO LACK OF NODES
Same happened last time
Games dead itās gonna cost a load to repair the broken ships
Thank for making a once fun game now a PoS
Game off line?
49 is down...... and we have a takeover planned....
Emergency Maintenance ? 
138 is 50/50
49 is down...... and we have a takeover planned....
@normal acorn you HAD a takeover planner š¤£
But mostly on fire
@twilit imp
I hope not as if we miss the window to get a territory are they going to make us wait another week
Hey, that is our server there
When was it due to start
1hr 30 minutes but scopley maintenance last what 10 hours after they claim 2
Ummmmm
1hr 30 minutes but scopley maintenance last what 10 hours after they claim 2
@normal acorn its gonna take them that long to figure out its down
yea im stuck at 65% loading also now
Lol I beat you at 70%
hehe
If they don't adjust the territory times it will be a week before we can chain them all....
Oh wait I will be allowed In now to get kicked out again lol
you're crazy if you think they're going to adjust the territory takeover timers
woot im finally in
Exactly they aren't going to do anything. Just a big F U to everyone
and got kicked out again
Update in App Store too
Well I am back in and just to annoy alliance I have set off an armada lol
It's not the game server its the Authentication Server, basically the "sorting Hat" where it directs your game to the correct server had a choke, and its clearing the backlog, so a little slow while it catches up processing the backlog of logins, if you leave you leave the game login screen open it will eventually let you in.
But while you are waiting how about making sure you have the latest game update from the App/Play store
So, what is the status of the server mergers for 15? @shrewd totem
How long does it take to make an announcement?
Their help desk has plenty of copy/paste responses. Cant they have one for their official discord channel?
Im@back in, no auto shield came up on our server
The chest came first, they knew already š
Has anyone else had any massive battles for control of territory? Yesterday we had around 100+ players from 6+ alliances battling it out. Only two alliances were competing for the territory, the others were there to help or hinder one side or the other. Things got so laggy and unresponsive the game was virtually unplayable (more than usual). However, I have to say it was the best 30 minutes I've had on this game in a long time.
I can't speak for others, but I had 4 battleships all in the system, trying to control them was maddening
Does anyone know which ranks can activate the embassy? I know only comms/admiral can initiate a take over.
the same, only Commodores and admiral
I hope so.
Maitnaince?@abstract gate
@abstract gate thatās sounds fun. Weāve taken 2 territories with no one contesting.
One of our servers went down but everything should be back to normal now. Everybody got 4h peace shield as well.
had to restart the game to login fyi
Correct - you might also need to restart to visually see the peace shield but it is there regardless
@bleak pumice that player is likely protected under CF but it hasn't appeared visually
Disco just seen message from roy
daaaaamn... look at roy with the gif.... my man
Change the name to STAR TREK MINE COMMAND at this point..
More mining.. and guess what.. more to mine..and for the new content.. mine more. thanks Scopley. ,l,,
Also people are tricking miners off the mines by attacking then making them@move and cancelling
Itās causing utter anarchy
As other people then steal and nobody can prove anything
All because there arenāt enough

Do we have any information on the mining events that are supposed to give out the special Origin sector faction research particles?
<@&509691205798592532> do you guys know if thereās going to be any of those events that payout stuff for the discovery refinery?
There are flash events coming for that
If only this was a 24hr event) :
The second stage of the "it turns out I'm nobody"tasks doesn't open. In which ecosystem is the beginning? Or where will the task open?
is there any way to get the 2nd grade or 3rd grade isogen without being in an alliance that controls territory?
Nope
Armadas
Wouldn't be too bad If they wouldn't put out a research 2/3 pack that has the particles but they are a buy once item. How hard is it to put out the packs for those of us who wish to max the research
Nope
@cosmic sage yes, armadas
Scopely. Territory cannot handle the power. Fail.
big fail
I think it is only our server which has 8 alliances in a single system though,we love PvP more than Scopely imagine
So how exactly are we supposed to complete this new mission chain/battle pass when the number of ships-to-nodes is like 20 to 1 or worse? I need only 25, but with a small alliance, capture is impossible, and all nodes elsewhere are full nonstop.
@unborn cloak Ask politely to have it for a minute might work, at least at our server.
Seems like this focus on alliance crap is completely hostile/prejudiced towards/against independents and small alliances.
Thanks @golden pier , Iāve tried but been completely ignored so far
Too bad, have been asked a lot, being one of the lucky ones to occupy a node earlier and usually always gave it for a few minutes.
Message players directly
No point in not helping them do their mission stuff. We all want to have fun and progress (to next mining idea g)
Yeah, my server is not particularly friendly or helpful under the best of circumstances
That's pretty bad š¦ and not a lot you can do about.
If no one lends, then resort to kicking someone
Found someone in GC to share, thanks, and another who spotted an opc node as well. Thanks all!
Is there an event schedule for this arc?
So itās lock up your ships on 23rd,25th and 27th š
Are the armadas giving iso in origin space? Donāt think Iāve seen one yet
They do. but refresh is very low.. like every 12h
Thanks. So need to uncover the space at exactly the right time to get one. Any idea what the countdown to battle time is? 15min like reg armadas?
Thanks. So need to uncover the space at exactly the right time to get one. Any idea what the countdown to battle time is? 15min like reg armadas?
@rustic parcel yes, 15 minutes and require just normal armada directives
Thanks @warm bobcat
also once all territory space is claimed terrirmadas will be rarely seen and impossible for anyone who doesnt have territory to do
the second they spawn in your territory they get done
if you try start a terrimada in someone else's space you will be killed long before the timer hits 0
scopley will likely get harsh surveys when they go out lol
This is A JOKE
For all that effort the benefit should be FREE
Or almost free.
Fk me
Why is it every time there is an opportunity to make things good they're made so bad?
Fkn pointless going for these. Waste of time, money and resources. Back to the grind.
It was never stated that theyād be free. Like everything else in the game you have to balance rss availability versus usage.
Another fail event delivered purely for whales. GG you utter tw*ts
It was never stated that theyād be free. Like everything else in the game you have to balance rss availability versus usage.
Hahahahaha
Scopely know just how to drive people away
Can you imagine an alliance scraping together just enough iso to takeover, barely winning and then being faced with a bill twice the cost of the takeover for a week that will be barely used? šš¤£
I mean I know Scopely are operating on microscopic margins and hope, but this is ridiculous. Doesn't matter if something costs $500 if no one buys it. But if 1000 people spend $5 you're in a better position.
How are we supposed to make this work, you can't get an isogen mine they are full 24 7, this whole thing is a joke very poorly planned by Scopely like everything thing else they do. I have been searching for a mine node to complete my missions and nothing is available. I'm starting facts,. This was set up to suck resources to the big spenders in this game, this game was fun now I'm thinking of just hanging it up.
The same way no actual game bugs get fixed but a Tribune shield.
Hi @ all.... one question! You can change epic Galaxie tokens in the event shop! For example for blueprints of viādar! But where I can get this tokens? š¬š³
The same way no actual game bugs get fixed but a Tribune shield.
@tall valley Bull's Eye
@rose badge I only see an option for the franklin and random stuff. I'm ops 18 and nothing has shown up to earn the credits. Only the 100 free ones we got
@rose badge You get them from the cosmic cleanup event once its fixed, for now you got some in a chest after they pulled the event (there might have been some level requirement I dont remember)
Its supposed to run every week during the arc
During arc? Is this an event?
There's only 3 hours left on the timer, unless it's going to release more as the event continues
@rose badge go into events and event store
Is this paid misdirection? Or are you guys just chomping at the bit?? š
Yes, it is an event, I think its on Wednesdays - if they got it fixed
Ahh got it thx
Lol
In the Event Shop I See three options viādar Franklin and one other! But I donāt have this tokens to change towards the blueprints š
lol midnight, talking bout me? Im very surprised to read that the game company behind the p2w game you're playing cares most about the ppl that spend most, sorry if you feel I take attention away from that by trying to help someone out.
@rose badge You should have gotten some in the chest then. Did you log on the last few days? Otherwise you should have a chance to win them in an event on Wednesday.
Not you mate. Just every time I raise something to try and call out help for the masses, some other thing take over.no big deal. They want it forgotten anyway š
Ok i waiting to wednesday
Because I want the viādar
You're greyer in your avatar
I commend you for still fighting that uphill battle mate, I've given up š
True! But I don't want to be another quit statistic!
Perfect thanks for the information šš»
No probs. You can prob grey up that emoji easy šš
š yw
Haha, they aren't making it easy for you this arc then. Tbh I am surprised they don't throw in more simple bonuses for active players, after all the whales need players to feed on...
I know. I skipped the last 3 arcs, did my own thing and gave them the same scathing feedback over 3 surveys. Clearly they're a placebo!
"to feed on" - seriously, economics past 40+ are ridiculous. Where do you want to raid those billions and billions of ressoruces? Forget it. Whales pay, that's it. Nothing else. They don't need players to feed on, it's not possible.
It's like taking your vitamins in the morning. You can't survive on it but it makes you feel good.
Probably right.
I don't know what most servers raid figures are, and obviously rss is max 1 pt per rss for Dil, but our top raider is almost 50bn pts over 2 years. That's maybe 250bn rss or something, who knows. I could spend that in about an hour now, if I had the mats
Not sustainable
Whats the point of paying thousands for your ships if you cant hit others with them?
Is the second mission supposed to automatically start after finishing the first or do I need to travel somewhere???
Anyone?
Lol - flick booty hunter. Love it š
Has there been any updates to when ops 24 and lower will get Unlocking Origin Space?
I think the caps are gone in Territory right? So the little guy has a chance
Player cap will be removed at event refresh
EU servers have 3 hours until event refresh
I say will be but this is scopely so I mean it should be removed at event refresh š¤£
Yes the caps will be, and in the gift chest the unlock will be available for all
Give it a few mins to update after the event refresh though may not happen on the dot
Hahaha yes šš¼
How to get prime particle?
Looks like it fully supportive towards pay 2 win players
And no trace for free 2 play players on achieving them
Time spent does not matter, it is about not spending time and buying. If they reduce the time needed, less people will spend money. Scopely simply does not care about f2p and small pockets, they are basically a marketing company and not a game company.
Other prime research have many ways to obtain other than buying
But this territory research is fully one sided
How to get prime particle?
Looks like it fully supportive towards pay 2 win players
And no trace for free 2 play players on achieving them
@charred veldt not true they will be coming available, itās only been the start of the arc, and more things will be introduced in order to get those prime particles
That's a great news šš
Will let my server know about this and reduce the chat thread š
I'm expecting it will be like a apex event type
States in game you can get them from mining events in different faction sectors in the new space. Hasnāt been one of those events just yet though
Presumably youāll be able to buy them too.
it puzzles me why f2p players complain so much about p2w getting ahead in the game without p2w this game wouldnt exist
Looking for event calendar please
Why isn't my ships/miner able to mine when placed on isogen node?.. uhh this new mission questline is stupid
@long arrow
It puzzles me when you expect people to play a game when they cant progress for years š¤
<@&509691205798592532> if you have five territories and go for a sixth do you get to choose which territory you lose or does it prevent you capturing another?
Anyone know how to get these particles without spending?
Events @south arrow
<@&509691205798592532> if you have five territories and go for a sixth do you get to choose which territory you lose or does it prevent you capturing another?
@jaunty sonnet you will not be able to join a 6th until you abandon or lose one
it will not show as able to join in the join screen for that embassy
points for spending iso-emulsion are not working for expansion - alliance lb?
A member of us told also that the points for iso emulsion not counting
Expansion - ALB isn't counting Iso-Emulsion for research
is there a burst event that isn't working or did the UI elements just get recycled Anomalous Phenomenon
Emulsion doesn't count for me either.
AP gives 300 points per warp (without discovery)
Anomaly event is giving points for travelling to systems on any ship instead of just discovery.
<@&509691205798592532> could you report the bugged events pls? Thank you!
Emulsion not working on any server it seems š³
Why no points for the LB for those of us that have already captured territory? That's frustrating.
Spending iso-emulsions isn't advancing the Expansion Event
the grind is getting ridiculous again
Yep, Emulsion is Broker
@toxic urchin <@&509690795536941056> Alliance Leaderboard is not counting Iso-Emulsion spent
@pearl ruin see above as well
the cores and emitters are spend, not refine
ah
ie, start a takeover / purchase a service
the iso-emulsion though, thats def a bug and it's been reported
sorry
ISO emulsion is one of the research currency
see thats what i htought
if you spend that on cores and emmitters you should get poinits
@here We are aware of an issue with the Expansion - Alliance Leaderboard event, we are currently troubleshooting to see if it is possible to fix it or we will need to pull it off. Sorry for the inconvenience. After taking a determination with the event we will consider next moves in regards to the event rewards and/or player spend
@pearl ruin
Thank you
I should have earned 800 points instead of 700 points
All researches are done during the event time
Working on it dude. Read the last 2 min of chat.
Thanks
@astral bolt please file a ticket in game for that so we can check on it, thank you!
Already contacts the support
Alb scores are decreasing..
Guess that will be a pull i need the 1.3b parsteel pff..
@pearl ruin points for launching a takeover are working, but not Emulsion cc @lime raft
Yep we're aware, we're looking into it actively, thank you!
Just specifying what is and isn't broken, since a launch confirmed those points counted
So spending iso emulsion for research would not count in the expansion event?
This refine should count towards the event, but is not right now
they are aware
Stay tuned, be patient
its pulled
So @pearl ruin you should just give everyone the awards and call it a day thanks
Commanders,
We decided to cancel the current run of Expansion - Alliance LB after receiving several reports of scoring issues. After determining the cause, we decided the best options for the community was to pull back and provide compensation to all.
This decision, does not impact the next run of this event, scheduled for November 30th (UTC).
Sorry for the inconvenience, and we thank you for your patience!
- The STFC Team
We will be posting this message as a mod announcement for everyone to see in a minute
Anyone do the math on this Anamalous phenomena event. For lvl 28s is approx 350 hostiles or 48 jumps, or a combo there of. With limited systems and waiting for hostiles to spawn. This was not well designed. Wasting jumps instead seems equally silly.
@pearl ruin thank you very much
maybe once when takeover start only alinces who started can go in
@alpine snow you can also use regular warps with non-disco ships
how about the rss i already spent on the event before being pull out?
The discovery event is also not scoring every kill with the disco
just war your ships on a fast warp path back and forth
no need to kill
finished it in about 3 minutes
@thin bloom its not the issue of not having warps. Got a ton. But it will take hrs to finish with hostiles and warp jumping seems the quicker way. Why not just make it a warp jumping event. Just saying, its poorly designed. Maybe use more than a handful of systems so there are enough reds to kill or reduce the requirements

@alpine snow The new anomaly events are different on each day (3 versions), we will be monitoring activity and hearing your feedback and making changes as needed. Adding more systems for next iterations is def something we can do
Oh absolutely, it's poorly designed and poorly worded. That being said, if you take any spare ship you have and warp it between two systems 50 times, the event is done. Can be finished in 15 minutes
<@&509691205798592532> Is Scopely also going to cancel the Anomalous Phenonmena event as well and gift us all the rewards? Because everytime you warp a ship (non disco ship) i get 300 points added as pop up.
š
That's player beneficial
Yeah, why would you complain about that š¤£
fine. I will personally cancel that. Oh wait...

@deft owl We are aware of this and already opened up an internal ticket to improve our metric for this particular issue. Having said that, we made a decision to keep this event going.
Hey I did not know devs were also part of STFC.. is that a new thing or been a while?
They have been lurking.
Since day 1
We weren't kidding when we said "they see your feedback". They really do.
@thin bloom yeah i did figure out it was also regular warping as well when i sent a miner home šš. So it truly is a warp event
Didnāt Picard find out that warping was killing space so star fleet limited warp ships? Are we ruining the game with this excessive warping? š
i have a mechanics question about territory control what happens in if your alliance owns a 1* 2* and 3* zone all connected by the 2* then you lose control of the 2*? do you still have access to the 3* system or do they all need to be connected at all times?
Omg people, the event is perfect! Just warp and be done, do u really want to hunt 500+ hostiles by hours?!
If you lose the one in the middle, you can still live in and mine in the other two, but you cannot activate their services.
To activate services, they must all be connected.
@pearl ruin pls keep the event as it is, itās amazing
Omg people, the event is perfect! Just warp and be done, do u really want to hunt 500+ hostiles by hours?!
@winged light Have you figured out how many times you need to warp to get the event completed?
@deft owl yes, finished it in 10 mins
I'll admit i was wrong. great event!!( once you figure out regular warping counts )
Go to lower systems warping is by seconds
You can even warp all your ships in parallel if really in a hurry
Now you've done it!! You've alerted Scoply. Prepare for emergency maintenance in 5 mins!
I really do not understand some people, they prefer tedious work all the time
@rough mulch Event is indeed broken , and where is the Jelly event, it was there 3 weeks in a row and now suddenly no event, I was saving a lot for it
@rough mulch players who did the event in the past have had an advantage of the jelly event is now postponed for undefined time since we will need more rss if not weekly
@rough mulch Event is indeed broken , and where is the Jelly event, it was there 3 weeks in a row and now suddenly no event, I was saving a lot for it
@proper jacinth We have never communicated a frequency for the ISS Jellyfish acquisition event. It is roughly once a month, but we have skipped one month and done two rounds later in the past.
@pearl ruin it was 3 weeks in a row
yes... we were lucky... lots of cheap jellies flying around
what he is saying is that you were told there would be one AT LEAST once a month
and by month that means within a 30 day period... not on a set calendar
The event that was canceled today. Which one was it. I know the title but what was the scoring metric/reward?
allaince spending basically for takeovers
spending for research was supposed to count... but didnt
Ah ty
@granite zenith To be clear, I do not think he was saying there would definitely be one at least once a month. Just that they roughly have been so far but it's not an exact frequency.
exactly...
How was that event supposed to work. You only get alliance rewards if you directly contribute so it would only be the alliance member that started the takeover would get the alliance rewards?
might be more... but they try for not less
How was that event supposed to work. You only get alliance rewards if you directly contribute so it would only be the alliance member that started the takeover would get the alliance rewards?
@hybrid ibex it was an alliance event... all the points go towards an alliance score and the alliance gets the rewards
thats why the research part was key
@granite zenith but for alliance events only alliance members that score individually get the alliance rewards.
thats how the individual opted in
ah right I see
So if that didnt work only an admiral or commodore would have received anything.
i think this is the Biggest money making event they have come up with so far - only time will tell if it works or if it just pushes people out of the game making it boring for the $$ spenders resulting in their quitting as well...
How about an event for those who have a jelly š
So if that didnt work only an admiral or commodore would have received anything.
@hybrid ibex truthfully it depends on how they coded it
Why did they pull the 3 day alliance event? didn't screenshot it, but it was spend isogen mats and was an alliance event.
ah jeez, rookie mistake--shoulda looked there. thanks @shrewd totem
š
Question: is there a minimum number of points for a territory capture? One of the alliances on our server only had a few ships join and claimed they didn't have enough points (even though no one competed with them). Is this a thing?
@granite zenith maybe you can bring this up? Luckily, it wasn't my alliance
š¤·āāļø i can ask
Also, if we have 5 territories, if someone breaks up, or we abandon the "middle" territory of our 5 across.. can we have 2 separate sets to move around from?
Early days, but trying to have two sets of territories could be a winning idea for us based on our server map so far
Also, if we have 5 territories, if someone breaks up, or we abandon the "middle" territory of our 5 across.. can we have 2 separate sets to move around from?
@tall fiber nope, anything not connected to a T1 is turned off
Question: is there a minimum number of points for a territory capture? One of the alliances on our server only had a few ships join and claimed they didn't have enough points (even though no one competed with them). Is this a thing?
@tall fiber there isnt
well 1 is the min
if you lose a spot in the middle... you can not activate any new services
you only have to start with a t1 though... after capturing other territories... you do not have to keep the original t1
you dont but you cant activate services
only services
You can abandon the one "in the middle" and still live and mine in the 2 you own, but you will not be able to activate their services since they aren't "connected"
That's one of the side questions... Eventually it is possible to have 5 territories without a tier 1 with services... Or will that not allow services to activate?
t1 isnt a must but recommended
if you can connect 5 territories via a continuous warp path without having a t1 then yes... but i dont think you can
adjacent = warp path
you should be able to but will be hard
not just touching
We took the first T1 on our server and then wanted to see if we could take a random T1 somewhere else, and you can't
We took the first T1 on our server and then wanted to see if we could take a random T1 somewhere else, and you can't
@tacit radish correct
you only get your first T1 anywhere, then you MUST build connecting to your current territory
you take 5 ADJACENT systems starting from t1 then leave t1 and take a t2 or 3 if you can and play just fine
that isnt a guess btw,that is from Devs
This is where my original 5 comment came from. If we don't need a tier 1 but can have 5 connected, how does it know which 2 sides are the activated side vs. cutoff side?
good to know
so, if you tried hard enough, you could own 4 of the T3's... you wouldn't be activating any services, but you'd have base and resource rights...
This is where my original 5 comment came from. If we don't need a tier 1 but can have 5 connected, how does it know which 2 sides are the activated side vs. cutoff side?
@tall fiber your first territory has to be a t1
then you capture warp path adjacent ones
keeping the original t1 is optional once you are on the map
Wait, @shrewd totem just wanted to make sure I understood something. You can abandon systems between your primary territories, but if you break the "connection" between them, then you can no longer use services? How is the primary system determined?
you cant increase 5
primary doesnt matter... connection does
@abstract gate you can use services but not reactivate them once over
There is no primary - if your territory is disconnected, you won't be able to activate services in either side.

@lime raft do we know if you can still continue to take over if there is a broken link?
So if I control Zamaro, Ber'tho, and Brellan. And I decide to give up the t2 system (Ber'tho) in the middle, I won't be able to reactivate the services in Brellan or Zamaro come the next takeover?

@abstract gate yes
@granite zenith Hmm. I would think yes so that you can try to reclaim the connection but I'll confirm.
What about a 2 & 2 setup... Nyrheimur + Eldur | gap at Thosz | Abilakk + Tholus
reclaim yes... i mean expand outward on either side with no services @lime raft
What about a 2 & 2 setup... Nyrheimur + Eldur | gap at Thosz | Abilakk + Tholus
@tacit radish no services if there is any gap
okay, so any non-contiguous territory disables ALL (new) activation of services
yes
@granite zenith good question, I'll try to find out
@lime raft do we know if you can still continue to take over if there is a broken link?
@granite zenith logically you would have to (to repair the broken link)
you can also drop the disconnected territory to get activation back... im just not sure if you can expand out without being connected
If having a 'break' invalidates Requirement #2 "Zone is Tier 1 or connected to your Alliance's territory", then yeah, you'd have to drop all the smaller bits to be able to takeover again
yikes...
yes... but the way the takeovers are scheduled... my outward expantion would come before the chance to retake...
thats what im unsure about
@pearl ruin the armadas function when you click alliance then armadas is still broken
yeah, can't fight against the current with the takeover schedules
I read the "or" connected... That you could expand each half
but hopefully discoleela can get an answer
depends if it counts a territory if its not continous
yep, that's a HUGE sticking point
@pearl ruin the armadas function when you click alliance then armadas is still broken
@modern estuary Did you update to the last client version? If so, please file a ticket detailing your current client and user id. I know it can feel like a hassle but it helps us detect if there is another issue at play.
yes i did @pearl ruin
if by the nature of having disconnected sectors means you have no territory then having your back broken would be catastrophic
𤣠i get so absorbed in here i forget to click the helps
ack! same... stupid event...
@pearl ruin see demo of issue https://www.screencast.com/t/jyX94ENU6
also event rewards still loop for a bit and notifications still get stuck
Thanks, I will check with the rest of the team
We are starting to slow roll out event compensation for the Expansion - Alliance event. If you don't see it yet, it will be available in a short amount of time.
Thanks for your patience š

@pearl ruin what about the whale alliances that are missing out on the avatar for 1-3 place? When can we get those?
As in the original announcement, we are planning to fix our scoring metrics for the next scheduled run of the event. You will still have a chance to obtain it.
Anyone else notice something with new armadas rewards...
We had 5 ships kill a lvl35 which had 169k of 3* isogen as a reward. Since we all had relatively decent size attack ships, we didn't have much cargo capacity. The strongest two ships cargos after winning were full, and some of the smaller ships had room left.
When we added the 5 ships rewards, we noticed we were short 30k
Theory: the allocation based on strength gave more than the strongest ships could take so they dumped the rest instead of sharing it to other remaining ships
its by damage done
Power
yeah, we've hit that problem as well
stronger ships do more damage and get more payout
It is power,not damage
if you have a power imbalance, lock out the sandwich stealers
Power or damage done doesn't matter.. point is that it doesn't balance out loot if some ships get full
Right? Not a big deal, just would be nice if it reallocated down
@pearl ruin demo of looping event rewards https://www.screencast.com/t/IfnRyNnnR
Power or damage done doesn't matter.. point is that it doesn't balance out loot if some ships get full
@tall fiber It uses power, but to your point: yes. The distribution of the loot happens before checking for cargo capacity
@granite zenith yes, you should be able to start a takeover for a zone that's adjacent to one of your zones if discontinuous. But no services still.
It's a "feature" (immersion) -- the loot was vaporized by your friend's OP ship
It's like one of those MMORPGS where the rogue would roll (and win) for something they can't use
Thanks @lime raft So, if I'm understanding correctly, we can 'repair' the break on the next week's takeover without having to abandon sectors
yes ... you can continue to expand... just no services until you fix the break
@tacit radish Yes, that is my understanding.
hey now... I WAS that Rogue back in classic WoW... Only rogue on the server with an Eye of Sulfuras >_>
37 ops.... @tepid agate what server are you on?
Just not certain of that. Thanks for confirming
Should have waited a few days to open it I guess š¤·āāļø
Oya is 40+ if I remember correctly
40
we are not a year old yet
so did not get the pack payout increses i believe
our server has yet to mature to server 37 level
all servers advance on the same progression timeline
and have gates in place here and tehre
Ok, thanks. Don't worry, 37 hasn't gotten increased value yet either. somewhere around 18 months old
š¤
i am theory crafting bats
Our packs(old servers) got a nice increase when we got 4g which was a year after game started
It will be my 2nd year at the end of Nov
I wish I started this year instead of launch. Much faster progress and you guys didnt live through hard timesš
no warp stop
no warp stop? š®
i am very happy with watching the game progress this past 9 months. they have added so many features to make it easier.
no warp stop? š®
@loud solar Rev Deuce as CC as well
pick and choose what to do in your game time, have fun, laugh with friends
Soo many bad stuff during launchš
@loud solar back in the old days... you know when we had to fly our fortunates to school uphill both ways in the snow
fix this toast š
Scopely isnt a toaster fixer š¤
Like warping around in normal ships?
yup
toast not toaster 
i thikn so, it was 300 poins from a horizon
For today yeah that's normal
So is the top alliance on anyone else server trying to influence all territory takeovers even if they themselves are not contending?
@serene pollen well toast is coming from a toaster š
It will be fixed next time though so enjoy it while you can š
trueš¤£
I'm not seeing a cooldown when refining progenitor alloy, is that consistent with you all?
Yeah that is normal I think
hard to tell with the word normal now, but i'll take it as it is
is it wearing a mask... that IS the new normal
tell that to our dictators in our state gov...
Any word on when we'll have another uc spend event?
A second group bought in to the Takeover after the timer started. They are not showing on the top right corner in regular view. Does that mean they aren't eligible for being late? Every other Takeover showed all the groups listed.
@granite zenith sorry to change my answer, but I'm not sure what I said was correct before, if you're discontinuous you may only be able to reconnect and not expand. Trying to get clarity, apologize for jumping the gun before I was sure.
@lime raft knocking miners offf 0 mine break them again bug reintroduced
note 0 mine (broken and also stuck notifcations) yes i updated the client it didnt fix much
Thanks @modern estuary , I'll definitely pass both of those along.
And @granite zenith from what I am hearing now, I believe (though I haven't literally gone and tried myself to be sure) that you cannot expand a non-contiguous territory how you said. When you're trying to join a takeover, the game checks if that zone plus the rest of your zones are contiguous. Which means you should be able to reclaim a broken link but not expand one. Sorry for the Fake News before, and hopefully this update is correct now!
honstly @lime raft if we didnt have those VERY VERY annoying popup notification it would be a huge improvment please allow a setting that lets players turn them off
there needs to be 2 settings
- show pve notifications on/off
- show pvp notifications on/off
<@&509690795536941056> @lime raft These events are horrible! Bp unity event with nothing but battlepass points 2 days in a row is lame. Where are the faction hunts or any event with ultra shards and faction creds for rewards?
@sudden ledge they are better imo
you get rewards in battlepass
so you dont actually lose out
infact they got better
It started last arc where battlepass events are more thematic to the Arc, and contain only Battlepass points. The additional rewards that would otherwise be awarded in those events are in the free battlepass tiers.
@nova valley did all the math on it
Anyone know how we earn the special tokens required for some of this territory research? Says in mining events or store but havenāt seen any of them in the events
Itās just a way for them to give the free to play players less. If you donāt buy the battlepass then you are losing out
I am not the only one noticing we are getting less and less rewards during events
Although with faction hunt going from pretty regularly to basically never, I have found that I cannot earn anything close to enough officer XP to keep promoting at the same level as previously.
no you are not
watch ultimatedjs's podcast about it
between him and lcars they did all the math the rewards are actually better
So anyone else getting points for doing activities not listed in the anomalous phenomena event? š¤
Just warp between systems
Lovely warp around the system
Wasn't asking how, already know that part, just making sure I'm not going mad.
@sudden ledge and this capture territories is pushing more players out of the game. Its creating rogue players and benefits higher alliances only. Speaking to the regular want to play guys and its all negative. You have to spend money as its pvp for one hour so always repairing needing repairs and lat which you will run out of quickly unless you top 2%
Well this game was going to trash anyway
shouldve expected it to since its all about spending lol
We have one group of whales divvying out the territories apparently
One group of whales reserving territory, the other trying to line up friendly alliances on it's borders - too early to say whether it'll work as a feature
Enjoying all the OPC ISO though?
Do we know if there will be officer recruit events (not dailies) as part of arc? I've been banking a LOT of recruit tokens...
Incredible ammount of lag during all territory battles
Couldnāt select anything on ours. Couldnāt select ships or nodes. Many restarts and a couple different devices. Lag made it impossible to do anything
blue buff
vs green buff in t3 system, any idea why they are the same value but the costs so different ?
I must say that the Territory Capture mechanics are awesome so far.
Just fix the lag!! Epic battles are happening on our server.
Once again Scopely you show your greed. Nice event to make players rush research or spend 100$ to get your special tokens! What a joke
