Yes it is.
@ornate geyser nope dst is not a server clock thing, never has been.
Server time doesnt change.
Neither of you knows whether itās a bug lol
Yes, it is a bug. In normal operation, everything ticks over at the same time. Under the bug, things tick over an hour apart.
It's a bug. Or, if you prefer, an oversight, or "oops, we didn't think of that".
Unless you have seen some actual requirements documents
Oooo new missions in the your not worthy to play area...
@ornate geyser no a bug dude, it's not a bug just because, in your opinion it shouldnt happen. I have looked forward to the time change every year. Tje hubris of you people, calling everything you dont like a bug.
It's not my opinion. It's not supposed to happen by Scopely's original design intent.
Colby is just trolling, or he is computer illiterate and does not know the definition...
I prefer to think of them as 14, with room to grow. š
@ornate geyser no a bug dude, it's not a bug just because, in your opinion it shouldnt happen. I have looked forward to the time change every year.
How do you know that Colby?
Anyway, if it's fixed, it's fixed, none of that even matters anymore.
In any case, I highly doubt either of you have seen the spec documents, so we donāt have the information to determine whether itās a bug or not. So a rather pointless discussion
@indigo perch my server has been active since thanksgiving 2 years ago I joined a week later. It has been the same thing every year. I am in finance, you dontnchange finance server clocks period. If you want your massive server program to continue to work properly, you dont change thencloc, period.
We do know the original design intent. It's to have everything roll over at the same time. This isn't even disputable - it's how the game was intended and how it launched. They missed taking daylight savings into account, in some regions.
It happens. It's fixed. Life goes on.
@colby - Thanksgiving is after timezone change. The game launched in May. You started with the game in a bugged state.
While server time might not change, you could code for the DST occurrence to not impact UX. And we donāt know whether the intent was to code for that. Period
It just would have been nice for a MEMO
@abstract gate by the numbers...dailies reset, every 24 hours, your clock on the wall changes, but DAILIES STILL RESET EVERY 24 HOURS, NOT 23, NOT 25....24!!!! Stip whining about it.
1h fac rep event delay is to fix it
Dude, Iām not whining. Donāt know where you get that. How about a very simple:
If date = October 30, 2020
Then event length = 25 hours
Or whatever the date, you catch my drift.
What is the default Daily Events reset time?
What Time Zone? UTC -9?
UTC +1 here. I donāt know if itās different in other regions
23mins UTC
We have the Same UTC +1. 18:00
UTC -8 here and it's "normally" at 0900h local time. Which is, I believe 1700h on Scopely's master clock.
that isnt how it works....
they set a time for x event in UTC that runs for 24hours. start time will depend where you live. if you live in UTC 3+,remove 3 from starting time and you will get what they set it to start at I think
Youāre right of course. Our turnover happens at 17.00 UTC
So if @ornate geyser is in time zone UTC -8 and his event starts 9.00 locally, event turnover is 17.00 UTC there too
UTC time will be same for everyone
Our Dailys like Swarms resets on 05:00 UTC+1. The Event reset is at 18:00 UTC+1 and the rest resets on 17:00 UTC+1
I could imagine that they put different UTC times in different regions for event rollover to better suit the regionās local time, but from this anecdotal evidence it seems not
that would be just extra work
The real question is, would there be money in that :-p
prob no
Thereās likely been done some studies at what times of day a person is extra susceptible to impulsive spending. It would make sense to have SLB auctions end around that time
Holy crap. Multiple mining events again, right after mining Monday? This is not supposed to be FarmVille, Scopely.
So how exactly are we supposed to get all 3 kinds of particles if there is no possibility of them being mined - since you can only mine in your own alliances territory???
Swap alliances?
More mining? 3 times over? Do they want a mass exodus from the game?
Real talk... Can we stop getting ore as event rewards?
No reputation events?
Nope
Crios is missing from Quantum Particle event
Missing my rep events as well
Our alliance controls Anzat, not on any of the 3 lists or rewarding pts
maybe it's only 1 race of each particle at a time?
why does crios not count?
<@&509691205798592532> <@&509690795536941056> Abilakk is missing from Phantom particles
it's only 1 race
Is it only 1 star systems?
Crios not being there is strange though
it's only 1 race of each particle type
What a load of š©
Suliban for Quantum Particles
they really should clarify that in the event description/name
Tip Top event again lads! 30 seconds to win it and can only do one of three. Jesus.
So I pulled off of a node and didn't get any points for the particle events
@twilit imp So no research particles for alliances that donāt have a territory?
We have 5 systems across two of the particle types and yet can only get one type from this event.
Maybe this will recur with different particles
most likely
<@&509691205798592532> Only 1* systems are counting for the research particles, is this due to change over the course of this event running? That wasnāt in the description of the research, so there goes territory plans
for these current events, Phantum = Tholian, Quantum = Suliban, Surax = Trill
Probably wanted event with hostile, but they arenāt ready yet
There also has to be a way to gain them for players in alliances not controlling half of Origin Space as well as alliances with not even a single sector owned!
Burran is bolian, but you canāt get surax particles for event for Mining there???
So we captured territories in three system types so that we got all three particles and now corvallen space doesnāt count! Should this be the case?
@merry fulcrum yes, but not in this event
???
look at the systems listed
Lemme go read it again
Shoot... Only t1 systems
Can I clear excess from other alliances tier 1 systems to get mining credits?
Why only T1 system that's bullshit
Seriously had it with this f**king game - all that hard work and a kick in the teeth.
Probably not. Event text says "mine". Usually it will say "collect" when you can take it from cargo.
To answer your question, the only way you are getting these particles without paying for them if your alliance doesn't control a zone that has the needed iso to get specific particles, is to alliance jump to collect them. This means lost alliance progress if you do this and you'll have to wait 8 hours to get back into your real alliance, and it assumes other alliances will let you join for the 15 seconds it takes to do the mining.
And still no compensation from Nyrheimur. What a load of f**king bullshit
So why is it that the Tier 2 & 3 systems don't get credit for the particles? @pearl ruin
BS event GJ again so FAIl
Likely bad coding to be honest and/or not correctly specified in the event descriptions
No, actually, there doesnāt. Thatās why itās PvP. Thereās a limit to how many a single alliance can hold, so we planned carefully to have all 3, and worked to get them/keep them.
We have one system that isnāt on the list
The thing is when the first territories were taken (according to plans made before that), that specific part about which systems give which ressource was not known!
And what about all the alliances without a territory at all?
Yes they were, it was in the research tab
They just cannot progress down the research tree?
Except if they pay?
That is called a pay-wall...
Hey Scopley we planned our territory carefully to include systems from all three types, we fought hard to capture and hold our systems and now the event comes along and we can only get 2/3 particles because the 2* quantum system we own isnāt quantum according to you. Sort yourselves out @twilit imp
No, thatās called encouraging ppl to be in an alliance and PVP
Not enough territories to go around for every alliance to hold a sector on our server...no plan what it is like on yours
Just like any other part of the game, you donāt have to participate, but you donāt get the benefits
Why do some zones not count? E.G. Brijac is bolian but not on the list that counts to those particles?
Why are there two ways to score points and they're both mining?
Surely one of them should be to steal the cargo?
Quantum Particles not in Crios š”š”š” @twilit imp cmon please get them to fix this
one is mining isogen one is mining other stuff. No stealing doesn't work.
If you haven't figured it out yet this was Scopely's way of encouraging alliances to move into different territories rather than sit on a few specific ones indefinately. You can bet the next time this event rolls around which territories give which particles will be jumbled around so that alliances don't just squat assuming they will get the same event.
No there is a pay-wall since you NEED those ressources to progress on the research tree. That is a pay-wall
Anyone else not seeing Anzat listed in the particles events?
Mining in Crios is not counting towards the quantum particles
1 system counts šš¤£
Strange they've used the cross-hair symbol for it!
And how are we supposed to move into the correct territories within 24 hours? When the countdown for takeovers are 7 days?
Really badly done event can only complete 1 out of 3
Hrojost is not on any list, it should be on quantum list
Can only do 1 research
Come on scopely sort ya s hit out
No reputation event today? they been one everyday for like forever but not today?
The territories are not fluid (predetermined takeover time), plus you canāt jump around, they have to be connected by warp trails and you must start at a tier 1 territory
Does anyone know whether jumping into another alliance temporarily works?
Mission bundle in gifts missing too
they say restart thge game to see events cause their engineers sux
Testing if opc works atm
OPC doesn't work
You can't really in that sense. As I said the only real way to do this is work out an agreement with an alliance controlling a zone you need to swap members long enough to do the mining, then wait 8 hours and swap back.
That will probably work
You NEED Stella particles for that research tree. If you didnāt participate in the Stella Arcs you donāt have a Stella and have to Pay to catch up. Not a pay wall, itās available without paying via participation
If anyone does test switching an alliance to get the particles and it works, that'd be great info!
and leave your alliance for 8 hours loosing alliance-event progress on the way
@twilit imp game restarted, iso still only counting 1* systems and faction event dailies still missing
are dailies being removed?
Correct, but it is what it is. And what it is, is a pay-wall.
Not the same thing...if you had participated you have your Stella.
except that you can't pay to bypass it lol, so it's not a pay wall
Correct. And pay-walls are pissing people off and killing a game!
Our alliance grabbed 5 territories that straddled each of the particles' space -- some hard-fought battles and a lot of repair money to scopely to find out ... #nope
Theyāre not pay walls if thereās free ways to get the stuff, canāt have it both ways
you can't call it a pay wall when there is no way to pay
so it appears that the list of systems that are currently activated are not every system in
orIgIn space
I didnāt pay for the 200/300 particles I have now
I believe 1^ systems CaptainSkou
yep only 1*
Incorrect, look in your Store. Look for Territory Research II pack
We wasted time getting five sectors that had one of each type and here Scopley does their sh it burger on us after all this work
Itās simply lousy that itās only counting 1 star systems
There is a way...buy a 100-bucks-bundle in the store
no
Echoing why is Crios not eligible for Quantum Particles
Can we pirate the points in other systems???
those are 1 time, they give you level 1 of each research, nothing more
Pay wall indicates the only way to get something is by paying, which is šÆ not the case
the rest cannot be bought
It's probably t1 today, t2 tomorrow, t3... Repeat
š "relevant systems" š¤Ø
This is the new lat mining event
the event is just stressful ... now we finally have an area and still cannot play the events completely ... the game is just frustrating. my alliance is annoyed š©
Why is Brijac not listed
1^ only
Hay now you know Scopely would neveer make any errors in the game. has to bvbe your device that is faulty../
Lvl 1 zones only?
We don't know how they'll structure future days, but presumably more particles for higher level territories
Yes for today's event.
are there any details anywhere about how the battle pass rewards are different based on player level?
Brijac is 2^ so doesn't count today
Reading all these comments, why doesnāt scopely actually tell us what the plan is and answer some of them?
Fix the list ... Fix the list ...Fix the list...Fix the list ... Fix the list ... Fix the list ... Fix the list ... Fix the list ... Fix the list ... Fix the list ... Fix the list ... Fix the list ... Fix the list ... Fix the list ...
Just ignore the event. The whole territory thing is basically a playground for whales anyway
As for 1 time purchases of Territory Research packs, it says that now, but I doubt that will continue to be the case. They will likely reset, perhaps once a month. Hard to tell with Scopely. As for the paywall topic, sure there is a way to bypass it, but not in any meaningful way, so it is a defacto paywall. For example these events today only give 100 particles each. That is enough for 1 L2 research. Guess what happens to the particle costs after that? Aren't going to get much research done getting 100 particles at a time, at a clip of maybe once a week opportunity to do so.
@twilit imp some sytems are missing plus shouldnāt we be able to take opc ?
@carmine lily not true I'm a F2P op 30 and thanks of territories just got my first time ever 3th place on slb mining event without a dvor warp 40 or the tribble
This shows a target but says mining in tooltip
@wheat tinsel and how many whales helped you get and keep that territory?
We are a full alliance 76 players now by then we were 77
@carmine lily not all the big alliances had only whales
Didnāt say anything about only whales.
It took 2 ships from a level 46 player to clean out my alliances of mid 30s....
Anyways we lost our territory so this event is horrible. Even more separation for the haves vs the have nots
no on opc, that would completely defeat the whole point of needing the territories to begin with
@rustic parcel even using pan and klaa crew couldn't run?
Nope. Usually crash the server because each take over has 4-5 alliances supporting the takeover alliance
Can barely find open space to run to let alone get there
Tried klaa on my realta. Was usually dead before I knew where it was š¤£
Territory captures are fun to watch now, itās basically level 50s sitting on capture nodes dictating who wins while everyone else runs around with g1 and g2 ships
And what about give us some info scopely ?
What info would you like?
Missions. Looking for missions panic Promised
If the list is incomplete and fixed, or if we are told it will@rotate, there will be no issue
Event still only rewards 100 particles
maybe fix of the list or if they plan to do the same event with 2 and 3 star territory and where is the mission ????
Thanks alot
Why are people asking about a mission
If you take a look at the tree with nodes requiring up to 15 researches š¤£
The next set of missions will come when you unlock the relevant part of the battle pass
@ 261000 points
Okay so you canāt get these things through OPC hunting? If you canāt get a territory then you lose out on some very powerful research forever?
Commanders,
We will be releasing more missions within Territory Capture space specifically in New Dozaria and Beta Assembly systems tomorrow 11/24.
These missions will be available through a claimable bundle in your gifts section and will make even more missions in Territory Capture space accessible.
@twilit imp , we need some clarifications:
- Did you forget to include the T2 and T3 systems in the particles events?
- Will the T2 and T3 systems be included in next events, let's say tomorrow and the day after?
- Will the T2 systems give 200 particles and T3 systems 300 particles?
The territory research tree will be a major grind just like everything else in the game, not sure why this is a surprise to anyone.
@everyone
Commanders,
We will be releasing more missions within Territory Capture space specifically in New Dozaria and Beta Assembly systems tomorrow 11/24.
These missions will be available through a claimable bundle in your gifts section and will make even more missions in Territory Capture space accessible.
vulcan
This mission?
YEAH
Its tomorrow until midnight š
Yes
They're building suspense
Lol
š¦
Where are my promise missions
I have lost total faith in Scopley.. they really try to screw over the players...
You must not have been playing very long here š
relax the new missions havent been issued yet.
dont worry the missions will be added in a year or so
Ugg. Hostile hunt + 2 different types of mining that is slow parking mining. At what point will Scopley realize that we only have so many docks to use for all the different types of things they have introduced to grind on.
we;; STFC is a new mining game
Zhian isnāt working for Suraxparticle... anyone else who has the problem?
they dont care about how many docks you have, you can always buy more upgrade packs from them
So how can i claim this mission when i got the battle pass points? Nothing in gift section to use the unlock... (lvl23)
and the rewards are not really worth it
Different mission
@brazen sentinel only T1 systems atm
and the rewards are not really worth it
@steady narwhal Well, I am always in need of uncommon crystal, but the rest, not so much
We will be releasing more missions within Territory Capture space specifically in New Dozaria and Beta Assembly systems tomorrow 11/24.
These missions will be available through a claimable bundle in your gifts section and will make even more missions in Territory Capture space accessible.
its a disco III miss key, you should see that in the store gift tab
they never gave a timeline, so relax
Scopely not yet defined when ātomorrowā is
tomorrow never comes, just when you thinbk it will it becomes today
Soon = one and one half years to scoepley so extrapolate from that
@tidal storm Thank you very much š. will it be possible to obtain surax particles in a 2 * area?
So just checking, you can only do these exclusive tc events if you own a territory? There are no systems outside of the origin zones to mine?
Or if youāre currently in an alliance that holds a territory š
@rough mulch U las misiones nuevas que dijeron ayer que estarian disponibles hoy?
Not there
its in my gift tab. I just don't have the key yet. I'm still 2 away
maybe submit a ticket
Afraid it might clog up unusable in inventory as it did with such a mission key at the Borg arc: (scopely appently still investigating that ticketed issue...)
Already sent ticket on the present one
Anyone know what happened to the new quests we where supposed to be getting
How do we spend 1,2,3 raw isogen for expansion event?i refined and got 0 points?
Research, start territory takeover and activate territory services
If someone (re)joins an ally during the 30d long ALB event why arent his points added up to the event?
Bit stupid...
Or is it a (visual) bug (again)?
Any plans to expand access to the particles in today's missions or can I just go **** myself if I don't join a whale alliance
Always been that way if the event has already started new member pts aren't added it's to stop alliance jumping
Sigh. 30d long event. A guy had to leave the alliance due to a bug or smth. Now his pts arent aded up anymore. Great succes
Research uses emulsion,activating services uses prog components, im talking about raw iso
It doesn't say raw
refined isogen is used for takeover costs
And service activations
Ok,it doesnt say raw,how about unrefined
Doesn't say unrefined either, says Isogen which is used to start a takeover and activate services
Opc hitting should count as well imho. This would allow alliances outside territory to take part. Also easier than alliance hopping
No, cores are for takeovers and componets activate services..the 1,2,3 isogen need to be refined into emulsions,componets.i am not getting points for using them
@unborn kite you only get points for using isogen in research
An admiral/commodore cant use sinle players iso for activating takeovers or services
Sorry ios emulsion
Thats emulsions for research
Itās an alliance event if you arenāt an admiral or commodore then do a research and you will get the rewards when the event ends
Along came a spider just appeared in my gifts section
So am I. I will not turn my key
Is it just me or did Zhian get left out on the particles?
Why doesnt opc count for the particles event
Look at my ss,it clearly shows points for spending 1,2,3 isogen^^^^^
Apparently only tier 1 territories today
Because the event says mine not collect
Taking OPC is stealing not mining
Should be allowefd so lesser alliances get it aswell
If an event says collect then stealing counts if it says mine you have to mine it not steal it
I agree with you
Lesser lol. Choice of words made me laugh. I am lesser
only for š³
No we locked down all three areas but our phantom area isnt on the list
<@&509691205798592532> if an alliance stays in one zone, currently they only have access to one type of particle⦠Is there a plan to rotate the particles available so that alliances that stay in their original zone get a chance at all three over time?
My alliance of 4 has a territory š we have been cut off so can't expand but we have one
Even if you have all 3 zones it doesnāt mean you can mine all particles today
@broken dust can't say for sure but I'd imagine it's a mechanic to introduce more strategy into the game.
And alliance jumping defeats the purpose of alliance events
Pretty sure they will force the alliances to rotate not the particles
@twilit imp anyway to see if scopley will change it to help the lil guys get the particles
@rough mulch
Should not be only 1* systems.
Assuming each particle is available in one tier each day it will take 9 days for all the 3 particles to have been in each tier. So assuming you have all three zones within your 5 territories and can hold on to them it will take a maximum of 9 days to have mined each particle 1x
Some you will have mine more than 1x
@elder gyro quiet the same š
Nope. Where particles show up is set based on the three zones (two races per zone) Scamley screwed up today but tomorrow all the zones will be available. So if you donāt have all three zones you are out of luck. You will be short one or more particles
You sure
All the zones will be available tomorrow? Where did you see this?
Thatās what they released on the VIP discord.
read pinned post
I agree that you do need to have all three zones within your territories though
Aka level 50 whale server
So we have to lose alliance rewards jumping ship for a measly 100 particles...golf clap scopley...I am done with this crap
Not if youāre in an alliance that straddles all three zones... we did the permutations and there are three possible combinations
Iron Marine post has his purple alliance... the phallic looking space straddles three zones
And the yellow one next to it
Yes, the third one is a line on the bottom
@shrewd totem what pinned post
Its just a suggestion but can scopely stop having so many mining events. This is starting to feel like a mining game. I already have to mine 450k of 3* for max pulls each day.
for those who were talking about T2 and T3 not giving particles: we will be including T2 systems as well for subsequent rounds, and these will run daily for the rest of the arc. at this moment, I don't have any news on T3 systems to share with you
𤫠this is a mining game. Donāt let anyone tell you different
@pale cobalt ok, figured it out,its REFINED isogen.the event description does not specify raw or refined
T3 zones donāt have isogen mines so canāt give particles...
I can share common sense
Good point!
Logic, Spock! 
@rough mulch anyway scopley can change the event to help lil alliances who need the particles
Cause this is stupid
Does anyone have any new information on the Along Came a Spider missions. Do we only get to choose one faction?
The T2 exclusion was a mistake. They will fix tomorrow and daily going forward for the event. So either join a alliance with all three zones (yes the three whale alliances), whip out your credit card and explain it as Christmas gifts to the wife, or just face the fact you get hooped on one or more of the new research branches
I saw the chest dropped for the warp paths.
Heck on my server only two alliances have all three zones. The bottom one has to be reformed and fought over
So does that mean if you have all three it will work to your favor @solar dove
Big time
Ok thanks
Even if you have all three you might not have them in the right place to get all three particles
Stupid event not aimed and anything but the top alliances
Unless your only foot in one zone is a tier3? I have not checked the map to see if thatās even possible
And with 7 day takeovers youāre screwed even if you want to fight over a zone with the particle you need in the next 24 hours
If you are lucky enough to be next to it as well
Control all three zones making sure each zone is a t1 or t2 and making sure you can hold onto them indefinitely. Does that sound about right?
Now, if they said stealing counted, that would make it more pvp
It's not aimed at whales as the top alliance on our server only has 1 of the particles needed today. Why can't they just let us mine in others territory & if they are an enemy in yours you just kill them
Apparently starting tomorrow all particles will be available in all t1 and t2 territories
Not good enough
I guess they want you to hold the zone until youāve maxed the particle then go after a new zone when you want to get the other
That it is š
Two max is what I think is possible
Then fix it for today lazy Mfers
Thereās an alliance on my server that has all three particles and they have one t3, but they have a t2 and t1 in the same zone. The other zones are a t2 and another t2
So theyāve got it covered as long as they can hold them
Thereās two other spot on the map where you can also grab all three zones
One doesnāt event require a t3 territory
The other requires one. Beku going east till you reach cornst
Barasa being the t3
Yup... there is a maximum of three places that you can can control all three zones for this event
Many alliances on my server do not even have a T1 territory. Big alliances have taken them all
Yeah this is lame. Uber alliances with the strongest players determine who gets what. Another failure.
there's 30 t1 territories. and i can garuantee your whale alliances aren't holding all t1 territories.
there should legit be about 12-16 alliances on the board. there's nearly 60 total systems.
if yu're alliance is in the top 20, there's no excuse for you NOT having at least one territory zone. other than lack of understanding, activity, or execution.
Regardless of all this. I think itās dumb that you have to even mine to challenge for a territory. Grinding is also not an acceptable substitute. However this is really is a mining game so.....
20 alliances on our map..@nova valley
to complete the event "the worst of oneself", I need more missions of the Discovery where there is, in gifts they do not appear.
free missions appeared, but only if you are level 25+
@bold girder that looks like a bloodbath coming as nobody has all three zones... gonna be a lot of PvP
@bold girder thanks for proving my point.
Yup. Theres only one alliance with all three. The 7th ranked I think. (The light red from North of barassa, up past Corva)
!bchor
Soo. Join a top 3 alliance, or be locked out of one research tree branch. Join a top 6 alliance, or be locked out of two. Join an alliance that holds territory (about a dozen of them on our server) or be locked out of all three.
Nice.
Our Alliance has all 3 and we're not top 5, and definitely not bunch of whales but our leadership has made alliances with others and executed very well with max participation
Too bad you can't hit otl on other mines and have it count. That would be a nice added factor.
Still to exclude most of the player base from events and stuff needed to continue in the game is a death sentence for this game
@orchid yew sounds about right. Or whip out the Amex because you know āmembership has its privilegesā
<@&509690795536941056> are there any plans (down the road, maybe Arc4) to have other means of acquiring those particles? Like mining in systems of allied alliances (diplomacy) or have an exchange where one could buy them for another type of resource.
FYI for those who dont have missions yet, It appears that it rolls out on a server by server basis
Our whole server got it at once. Probably trying to keep lag down in those systems
If you have numbers, allies and a few crafty tacticians. Then whales don't matter.
How about instead of complaining that you don't have what others do, you us some brain power to actually figure out a strategy to get it outside of getting a handout.
No matter how big a Newton is etc. Still takes 6 seconds to kill a realta
Itās easier to complain. Else they have to admit they are too lazy to use their brain.
So@are there plans to rotate wheat zones give what particles?
Winning territory is a numbers game.
If not this is a really really bad idea
100%
they probably want us to move around for what systems we own
The issue with moving around is your zones must all be connected
We are the 2nd alliance on our server. The top alliance has 4 or 5 G4 warships. We have none.
Didnt matter a jot when they tried to help their ally beat us for one of our T3 systems.
You gotta do like this Snake. Give some get some š
Crawl your way around the galaxy
We have an alliance on our server with 2 dozen g4 ships and 3 lvl 50s
On my server some got it, some didnt
Actually your territories don't have to stay connected, you can only take a connected territory. We have at least one alliance that was split in two.
@primal harness We where under the impression that you lose the ability to use the boosts of the systems that got disconnected.
I hadn't heard that and can't speak to the validity of that claim as it does not currently affect us.
Do you have the discord of a commanding officer for that split alliance so I can talk to them?
that is correct.
if your territory is split, you may not activate any services or take over any other territories until you're "whole" again. wehther that's waiting a week to fix the patch, or abandoning one side of the split.
You are saying services from ANY and ALL territories? It seems like you should at least get them from one of the sides , maybe the bigger one
nope. now it asn't happened to me yet, so i don't have first hand knowledge, but from the dev's, you cannot do ANYTHING but regain the broken link, or abandon an entire size. no additional captures (defenses don't count) and no renewal/activation of services. from ANY territory.
i haven't seen it confirmed in game play
Got it, thanks. Would be nice to have a dev AMA
Still cant get a definite answer on how Cadet McCoy works
All we get is second and third hand info
@potent crown I asked in game but they inform me that the abilities were already active so won't know till the territory comes up for Capture again
So that means if a chain is broken, the abilities will stay activated for the 7 day duration until next takeover, and not be able to be renewed after that
that's the way i understand it @potent crown they won't shut off, but will last til the end of their service for that zone. just cannot be turned back on.
@nova valley is that true. Interesting
like i said, i haven'r proven it. but that's what has been said by the scopely team. let me see if i can find the SS. hang on
@scenic cloud
Ty
Geez who designs those events ? Now whole server is switching alliances ...
lol, they are giving up quite a bunch tho
@pearl ruin what no particle packs forsale?
seems like a good opportunity to make some cash haha
I hope them loose aleance event rewards.
they will lose alliance events. but for some, the particles are more important. ain't gonna lie, i'm kinda thinkng about it. for me, i'd lose about 250 mil steel. easily raidable.
and abou 50 uncommon. which is one day in my refinery. maybe 2. soooooooo.
@nova valley So what does that mean for an Alliance who's territories are separated by 2 ?
you'll have to abandon one side or the other if you wanna activate services or continue to grow your territories path
So what I canāt figure out is if you have a rule that all your territories need to be connected and each race can only get one kind of particle, why would you group all the zones by race essentially forcing you to miss out on 2/3 of the particles?
They want you to move around and take over those required territories
Creates tension and sparks impulse pack buys
That makes no sense
Therr are 4 ways to get all 3 particals in 5 territories
Abandon, takeover, or work towards, they territory that correlated with the missing particles
Because the rate at which you get particles means you will need to hold a territory for a year
that's not true. there are 6 paths on the map that allow for control of all 3 particles.
It seems to be going on tomorrow as well and expanding to tier 2 territories
Kill all alleances on your way for what you need.š
Exactly
@nova valley maybe on your non whale server but we have an Uber alliance with two sections that split our map Map In half. Making that feat i@possible
You so hostile yet you the one asking questions
I think the question is for scopley
I would agree
Mainly Iām assuming they are using this as a mechanism to slow down
But it seems to make it so slow to drive people away
2 alliances can still only hold 10 territories....?
Most video game production companies hiring gambling psychologists to implement FOMO, so just imagine ur always being drawn to water
Money speeds up everything
@nova valley sure but they hold the middle. Splitting the ability for other to get all 3
honestly the territory space is too small for most very active servers. on our server all but 3 systems are now claimed and the remaining ones will be claimed by the end of the week
Take it
Hey
@abstract gate on our server one alliance holds 4 3 stars with there 2 sections
that may be true. @graceful shard but some alliances won't be able to hold all 3. my alliance only holds 2. so we chose the two particles most important to us. notice one focuses on buildings, one on research, and one on ships. so choose what's more important and focus on those particles.
So whatās the power gap between that alliance and the 2nd or 3rd
look at the research tree and you'll see how they each break down. so just choose the reseraches that ar emost important, and chase those particles.
They are number 1 and 2
@abstract gate congrats your 2 moves from having 3 particals
eu-139
Is it a monopoly of a concentrated group of active players
I have tier 2 territory research level 1 done, not 32 yet cuz leaderboards are nice at 31 lmao
Donāt even remember how much particles per research
Man U have to be 100k+ opc lmao
They are number 1 and 2 so essential 3x the next largest
They are number 1 and 2
this arc is mostly mining gets a bit boring tbh
So 2.6 vs .9
Ya wish there was more pvp
Not really balenced
They are nice guys but it does essentially limit competition
The rest of the top 10 are all good matches and trade back and forth
This is like half of our alliance first takeover
We in 4th power wise and but are undefeated next to the number 1 alliance
Numbers means more then power. Coordinate with ur alliance and just realta spam
I have summoning so I just sat in middle and kept summoning for points
So we have huge server wide fights almost every day for territory and while I agree numbers mean more than power what happens when someone has both š
Keep your enemies enemies close
So those new quests still didnāt open up the new planet missions does anyone know when they are coming
You need to clear the initial string to open others
The new particle event is only valid for mining and hitting OC will also do?
unfortunately, no. opcl and armadas don't count. this is specifically for owning the territories, which has been the strategic goal all along.
ya gotta own the territories that belong to the diff species.
Thanks DJ, but my question is what's stopping people to move to allies, mine in their territories and get all 3 particles?
UNFORTUNATELY, nothig LMAO, they will lose the alliance rewards,
but that's about it.
2 alliance jumps, 8hrs and u r back with all particles
i'm very tempted to do it myself honestly.
Thanks again š
Kind of pointless , you can do 1 research of each and then you lose out on alliance rewards
Only hassle, if u can call it a hassle, u need to do it everyday for rest of this arc and most probably next arc
@bronze arch and that's only level 1. lol i can't even do a level 2.
BUT we also know that these are now daily til the end of the arc.
so we have 900 more particles up for grabs. that's actually somewhat valuable.
900 more, after today.
I agree, giving up some rss and materials to do few good researches is a no brained
Rememebr $100 pack gives 450 particles each, here u get 1000 each
yeah. it's a 200 value in the next 9 days.
sooooooo.
i'm tempted. haven't done it yet. lol
Still wont get you far
I am in a small rank 15 alliance, we would never get a second territory, let alone all 3 and my alliance rewards are also not the best, I am definitely doing alliance hopping every night
Only enough to do the first research for each of the paths
Another event failure as far as I am concerned, catering to large alliances and whales yet again... smh..š
At level 5 itās 450
Can all new missions be done or depending on what side u choose, u can only do selected side missions?
We had a mission in past where u could one do 1 of 3 faction, rest 2 were always locked. Is it same here or not?
The new missions are not related to a faction
No it's not the same all missions can be completed no matter what choice you make
This new event to mine in is certain TC area, so bad, what about the smaller player/alliance, they have no chance.
These particles should be able to be acquired on armadas in origin space not just mining and much less only t1 or t2 zones
More things to aquire to do basic stuff. Just what we needed! We have a serious problem with a lack of credit type resources in this game! š
So did all the missions.. now what?
They just keep adding more tokens/bs that you have to mine/gain to change into another token to change into another item before you can actually get any type of reward.. oh and lets not forget all the accumulated tokens we all have that are just collecting dust somewhere... They clearly do not care about what we think or desire in this game, every āarcā just slides deeper down into the garbage pit that this game is becoming.. šš»
Congrats for doing all the missions, you've been kept busy so you stop complaining because they messed up yet another event.
Where do we mine quantum particles? Where is the Helvi system?
you must be in an alliance that owns these particles. then you obtain them by mining isogen in the territory.
not many alliances will have all 3. some alliances will have 2, and any alliance on the map will be able to do 1. at least.
How about during this silly event you remove the 8hr cooldown? Sending begging letters to join other alliances trying to manage numbers and keep track of whoās who and everyone disappearing for a day is daft
If they removed the cool down they'd reduce the incentive to spend enough to feed a family for a week to buy a handful.
Youāre crossed the line and then kept on going. Youāre making this game as demanding and intensive as a second job. This is no longer fun. I play games to have fun. Time to start extricating myself from the friends that I have made in the last 2 years. This is stupid.
i don't think alliance hopping was in the design of this event lol
i know some people are doing it, but that wasn't the design. the design was to get the particles for the territories you own. and the requirement was easy. mine 100. lol not any easier than that. takes about 4 seconds.
if youre alliace hopping, then that's added complication you're choosing to do. you dn't have to. althought it's a brilliant idea LOL
Yeah its easy IF your alliance owns a territory. If not its just another event impossible to achieve.
What makes scopely think each alliance has a territory? No one is just handing them over "please take my territory"
well, the event is territory capture.... if you don't hve a territory, then there's some strategy you're missing out on. most servers have between 12-20 alliances on the map. if you're outside the top 20 on your server, it's time to merge/consolidate.
here to tell ya. straight facts. there's not eough players on ANY ONE server, WORLDWIDE, to fill 20 full alliances.
that's 1500 ish players, and there are no servers left with 1500 active players lol
no, no one is handing you anything you gotta play for it. compete for it. and win.
10% of the alliances on my server own a territory. The rest of us are unable to participate in the events.
i call fake news. unless your server has 150 alliances. lol and there's not enough people for that. alliances with 4 ative players don't count lol
10% could be variable though. how many alliances are on the map.
like i said, most i'm seeing is 12-16, with a few around 20
Most of the top 10 alliances on my server are maxed out on members. Cant merge.
that's great. even if the top 10 alliances EACH had 5, that's only 50 territories out of the 60 that are out there. and not all the paths are gonna be perfectly laid out. even on your server, there's room for probably 15ish or more alliances.
so THOSE alliances in the top 11-20 need to look at eachother with loving eyes.
We dont have the players hi enough with hi lvl ships to beat the others. A bunch of low 30s players arent going to beat a bunch of low 40s players with g4 ships.
agreed, but why would an alliance with all 40's be competing with you for a t1 territory if they already have theirs?
To control everything and push out any possible competition.
Most of us work and cant play games during the day. That limits the possible territory captures we can attempt.
That sounds crappy, but if they're not actually trying to take the territory then you only need 1 point
just had a realisation why there isn't faction hunt.......some of the ultra recruit tokens are in the new missions rewards which were released today š® š¤
@trim hemlock there is not a T1 on my server that will be open for takeover before the events end tomorrow.
Haha, I was just doing alliance hoping to get my particles
For some reason my server seem completely uninterested in doing anything like that..
on 157 some players have been swapping alliances to get the necessary.... š
You have to have alliance diplomacy with other alliance, all of the alliances we hoped around to already were marked friendly at a minimum
I heard about that. Not sure our guys would want to do that with the cooldown and all. It messes up alliance event points too.
diplomacy is key in the game š
Svr 28 can't talk about diplomacy lol
But not everyone can do that as it would be mayhem
this excessive mining day after day is really getting annoying, also halving the points while doubling the amount you need to mine sucks @twilit imp @rough mulch @pearl ruin
this game has offically become Star Trek mining simulator
i have to say so far this arc stinks
ive mined so much ore today i was actually able to complete that mission where you have to donate 1.5mil ore and still have loads left to do to complete this dumb event
@wild anchor what you think whales got their money sitting on their hands? They work too
In fact maybe more, hence lies the advantage
An active lowbie alliance of 60-70 actives can easily defeat a whale alliance of 30-40 actives, even if you give them most nodes
But ya the mining is getting out of hand
@orchid halo getting out of hand? "Star Trek Farming Command"
There's only 19 different things you can mind now....
Mining is all people want now. They would wouldn't do it if people weren't getting upset and complaining. Look at the pvp events. People didn't like them, they complained "poof" gone.
I don't hate PVP events. I hate unreasonable PVP events xD Like making every system a hotzone
At least they dropped the particles and the events drop a lot of good rss
If only the events like hostile hunt had good payouts like this
So much trit and uc crystal š
It would be nice if I could get back into my account. Second time this month that I have been unable to get into my original account and it starts me at a brand new account. Way to go Scopely. I'll just wait while you figure out how your game works.
Mining is the gathering mechanic of this game. Each game has a gathering mechanic in one form or another.
Mining used to be the gathering mechanic, now with active mining it's another bullkaka engagement padding statistic.
Space, the mining frontier. These are the voyages of the survey ship Antares. To seek out new mines and new resources. To boldly mine where no one has mined before!
Mining is the gathering mechanic of this game. Each game has a gathering mechanic in one form or another.
@warped stag but mining has become the āprimaryā progression mechanic of the game
In terms of events on certain days
Like today
Where is Facion hunt gone?
Those good old days where faction hunt used to be hard to finish event. š
@orchid halo correct, it can be on certain days. The problem is the reward drops from reds is so low it makes that option unfeasible to use.
In every star trek series they are always looking for resources for the warp drive, repairs or other things. Love or hate it, it is how it is.
Is there any truth to the rumour that we may be able to mine in ally territory at some stage?
I.e. there could be an option to give another alliance rights to mine in your territory...
@scopely ... wtf why do you make this special resources lvl depenednt in your offers? Some of my ally have 900 each in this package
They can get just 100 like me in the event, so why do they get more in a package?
Are you scaming lower lvl player?
Packages have always been scaled for ops level, like it or not. It makes the same sense here as for other packs tbf, higher level -> more research available that requires particles -> more particles needed. Its supposed to be equal value relative to ops level.
@abstract gate if they would get more in the events you can argue with that but they get the same, research costs the same so just a scam
How the heck do you start the Airiamās day 1 quest?
@pliant glacier battle pass rewards. If you have been earning all the points to date, it should be available with the rewards in another few days
Yeah Iāve completed all the rewards and got the required tokens but didnāt know how to start the actual quest etc
is this allowed by eu law
Until what date the action of Burnham Recruit Special - 2x Chance and Discovery Recruit Special will be available?
We are only the 5th strongest alliance, but as the whales went for the 3 star systems we are the only one with all 3 particles...
Now we are a train station š
Where do I buy a ticket @modern wraith
šš just write me to get the full particle-tour and some iso on the way š
Tell Large I'll see him soon. š
More lag for galaxy events.
PvP points broken. No captain bonus. Using Harry Mudd in Discovery with the candlestick
I assume it is like last time where you only get the bonus if you are the one attacking @wintry canyon
Seems to be serious points lag, no points are showing till i restart game š
or just not at all. Looks like ill do it later once they have sorted all the lag out
Vulcan hello event is not giving any points.....
they are delayed
Yeah limited officer Intel points not loading..... Just blew my xp load on some officers n nowt
Vulcan Hello event is not recording kills/points
Actually it's loaded now. Just slow
My pvp deaths arenāt counting as they should
but: CALCULATION for Vulcan Hello IS WRONG <@&509690795536941056> . I really cannot believe the indolence of this company.
It would be nice if Scopely made work on the ever present lag in all flash events since introduction of them.
This lag seems to be getting longer and longer....
there maxed out my Parker Schnabel officer today for more mining
Hostile hunt and Cosmic clean up event is not calculating points <@&509691205798592532>
yes after restart part of points are in, but not all
yeah delayed/lag
Iām still 10 points short in the pvp. Yet again
since 10 minutes NO POINTS .. that is not lag @shrewd totem that is FAILURE TO DELIVER.
Is discovery considered a fed ship?
nah that is just Scopely level lag
indolence you mean
so just for my info what the algo for points for smash in critical system and using critical captain?
BasePoints + (basePoints * 10) + (basePoints * 10)? @shrewd totem
Vulcan Hello not giving points even after reset.
yes,basically hull*30(10 for base,10 for crit system and 10 for capt)
so this would be correct?
I didnāt get my first stage points for todayās BP event added to my total. Whatās up with that?
Somes problems ?
way to screw the discovery pvp event up scopely not getting point
Events not giving points for kills
if hostile has 100 hull and you are in crit system+capt,that would be 100*10(as event already applies it by 10)=1000,1k * 10(for system)=10k,10k * 10(for cap)=100k
4+ minutes after the fact mine just showed.
@shrewd totem I donāt think your math is correct brother. I think it is 100x10+100x10+100x10=3000
Not 100k
@shrewd totem the descriptions says critical captain as ship captain or fighting in critical system. it doesn't count both
@pale kestrel it should š¤
ikr
scopely could screw up a wet dream
Guys, anyone knows if the Territory Capture Exclusive events to mine Particles have fixed particle type per system or it will rotate?
I would be much better if @shrewd totem was correct š
Likely fixed @junior jewel
Click the particles in the research tree and you know which species will host events for them
41 min still no points, thats not a delay Scopely
put in a ticket and it will still take weeks toi get them to answer
Is anyone else noticing that refining Isogen isnt advancing the Expansion - Alliance Leaderboard.
if this is the official discord for scopely why dont they respond to us?
Vulcan Hello Milestone are still absurd, bonus point hitting boss in 120 warp at ops39, sure ill use my 120 warp magical ship that unlock at shipyard 39 š
So, Babishta is a Vulcan Hello PvE system for me at lvl 28, but a PvP system for lvl 25 guys. I'm sure that won't cause a problem š¤£
@limber tide Refining isn't classed as spending so doesn't clock up points, although it is worded badly it is spend refined not raw isogen
@pale cobalt thanks for the clarification
Spending Iso-Emulsion in the territory store is also classed as refining not spending
The Verge: AWS outage has taken down a big chunk of the internet.
https://www.theverge.com/2020/11/25/21719396/amazon-web-services-aws-outage-down-internet
This is why servers are laggy
So the PVP event space is all screwed up.
Im level 22 so my bracket is lvl 20-30.
My PVP space is Babishta and Izanami.
So I am killing Discos in that space, but apparently the level 27s and up in this space are just hostile hunting because their PVP space is Rosette and Dada.
Way to be consistent Scopely
I wish scopely would get rid of vulcan hero and all the new pvp stuff and give us back faction hunt. With the number of required kills, no one I've talked to is even wasting their time on the vulcan event.
Vulcan event was better this time since Ferrer was a critical system. I did the event with a single Augur hull
Thank you for fixing the Vulcan hello event š
The Vulcan Hello is still a pain. Bring back the burst events cause this is horrible.
hahhaa
scopely did it again
the pvp regions are exactly that far that people cant reach them without scotty
havent seen any discovery there since the event started
Whoever complained about burst events having a timer should be frog marched out of the game
Where is the faction hunt this time around ?
people complained about flash events when they are one hour, and now you are complaining when they are longer. cant please everyone
How is the Vulcan hello fixed? I need 7-8 hulls with my cent for the first milestone...
because its meant to be done with disco, however the lvl increase is a bit insane.
Cosmic Clean Up is the one that is messed up now....these last few days seems events are repeating but every time they do they keep getting changed from able to be completed in a couple hours to needing to be on all day....not a great move
still don't see Airiam's Day missions. Is there a requirement that I'm missing. I've finished the battle pass, I have 40 extra discovery tokens and nothing about these missions in events or gift area.
Can we pleasr drastically lower the milestone requirements for Vulcan Hello? We need the discovery refinery things, but this is just plain rediculous
How about making is hit 25 of a doable level, based off discover tier, for a daily goal instead?
My vulcan hello has nothing to do with the discovery aka no special bonuses for the discovery
My vulcan hello has nothing to do with the discovery aka no special bonuses for the discovery
@agile pecan yup. And to get the damage bonus, you need to attack harder than usual hostiles with a captain thats crappy for attacking hostiles.
went to lv 31 system with my tier 6 sally and used pike did it in 2.5 trips
Whatās your first milestone goal @agile pecan ? And what level are you?
at ops 39, no bonus, and can't even scratch those 37 in bonus system
it is fixed. These are the different zones. Credits to @trim hemlock for creating this map
@unreal mauve first goal 21M lv 33
I know this question has been asked before, but the official text is ambiguous: If you have 5 territories owned A B C D E, all well connected and adjacent (there is a warp path), but your alliances looses the system B. So A en C D E become disconnected. Then , can you expand to another system to a system F, starting from E ? (I know you can no longer activate your benefits in the systems, that is clear... to activate them you need a continuous connection between all your systems, my question is specific about take over of a new system.... do you need to abandon A to take another system? This is not mentioned in any official rule, this is only mentioned in player content).
yes, you can take another adjacent system (F).
then you'll need to drop A or reclaim B to be able to activate the services again
Yes to activate service, that I know, but you do not need to drop A in order to capture F ? Ok Thanks. there have been some contradictory postings about this in the past, claiming āyou can not activate service OR capture new territory unless you drop A or reclaim Bā
to clarify: you don't need to drop A to capture F
Anyone getting the captain bonus for the discovery pvp event?
54m first mile Stone and 270m for last on 34
territories must be adjacent to each other to capture.
contiguous if you want to be able to activate services.
from content creator replies on this discord. not actual testing, and not planning to test it š
Dear Scopely
Re: Vulcan event.
Fail!
https://c.tenor.com/N6JKU7Zxf8gAAAAM/bored-slow-clap.gif
Expansion ALB is poorly balanced because it favors alliances that have takeovers in the duration, ie. they can spend points to reactivate abilities. In the future it should last 7 days to ensure every takeover will happen once.
yep figures there would be lag in a territory takeover cause scopely engineers are morons and cant fix it
Is the PVP event today only for discovery?
I think Friday's PvP event is for the Stella's
I got dvor parts the last 2 time, managed to tier up my dvor one of the times
were you actually especting a rewards matching the effort?
Mine isnāt working with crit captain or crit system
I am not getting any of the bonuses, from vulcan hello for critical system, critical captain, or 4* ship. It's been a half an hour. It's not delayed, I'm flat not getting them.
And there's no point to putting in a ticket it takes 4 to 7 days to get a response.
Love the flags for the systems be awesome if the critical systems were red
But they donāt work so who gives a š©
š
Didnāt work last time and instead of fixing it they just do it over again š¤¦āāļø
I'm not gonna sit here and kill 800 ships, thats ridiculous
Worked fine for me. As typical the banners are useless and the points weren't always added immediately, but knocked it out easily enough.
38 kills, done. If the bonuses weren't working I'd be a little over a third done instead of completely done š¤·āāļø
Well that's mildly annoying lol
the event cards were great for 28, all very doable
The level that you're hitting will make a big difference. Last time I was basically stuck hitting 31's, takes all day with their hull health.. I don't know what your systems and captains are, but the 33's made it much better for me this time around. I would double check the system, captain and that you're hitting an appropriate level to get the best hull health out of them, and remember that the bonus points are + ((10+10+10) X hull damage).
Hey can we get a territory abilities that makes our refineries useful? like spend regular batch amounts to get a 10 increase in resources we always should of gotten from an "upgraded" refinery? By upgraded I mean total pile of crap lie that nowhere near distributes the amount of mats necessary to align with the skyrocketing costs of researches, upgrading ship components and costs of upgrading other completely worthless buildings etc..
@raw sleet I'm just looking at another guy with the same issue as yours, and the numbers don't add up š¤ even if you were hitting 33's with no bonuses it should only take about 250 kills to hit 640m. What system exactly are you hunting in?..
Sentaros
Hitting 37s
Getting about 7mill each time
I was exaggerating, lol. I just mean when i expect to hit 30/35 tops having to hit over a hundred stinks
120 is not 30/35
Sounds a little light, do they give less than 10 points per hull damage in yours? š¬
but that's about 90 kills. Not completely awful if you're able to kill them ok š¤
I had a quick look in the system, looked like 2-4 million hull for the 37's. Got a before and after event score screenshot? If it's legit short is post in bug reports.
Under Feedback Space?
#š¾-bug-reporting
Take a screenshot of the score, kill a hostile, wait a minute, screenshot score again (not the banner, actual event).
Ok, thanks O2C.
@pearl ruin hey. i hope that you're well. ongoing complaint from the community. lag. Just doing pre-arranged disco PvP. lag or client memory leak crashed out everything to the android homescreen.
Lost 2 x diso ports
[pre-arranged because everyone else did it earlier. i'm now PvPing with the admiral from our sister alliance]
<@&509691205798592532> Until what date the action of Burnham Recruit Special - 2x Chance and Discovery Recruit Special will be available?
So what's the deal with the 2nd set of territory buffs?
3rd takeover of a zone, still only able to activate 1 out of 2
It's the upcoming buff for the following week....
it's been saying that for the last 3 defenses
Because as already stated, only the 3* systems have two activatable buffs....
And the non 3* systems are just showing what the service will be the next week
Will there be a particles event for t3 systems?
Sorry if this has been answered already
Exactly itās supppsed to, it show what is current, and shows what is coming next. After this arc the services will change so it will be more noticeable
I already know the answer to this. But humor me. If you have an ISS jelly fish (built) , either acquired through the auction or armada chest pulls, can you still enter and participate in auctions for the ISS Jellyfish thereafter?
ā last week, a player with an ISS Jelly was in the auction again for another jelly, after previously winning one the week before. He built the jelly before the auction even began. Then won another 60bps this last event after already having one. Now Iāve never seen anyone who has a jellyfish even be able to see the jellyfish auction event after winning and building their jellyfish. So I submitted a ticket and scopely āTrevorā responds claiming even if you have a jellyfish, you can still be in the auctions. Either Iām really confused or scopely has now changed their auctions to include past winners and current owners of the jellyfish.
There are people with five or six jelly fish, nothing stops them from getting as many as they want. There's someone on my server who got a second one just to bump another player out of 2nd.
No one in my alliance can even see the event after they won theirs...much less compete a second time (after building). This was the first time it happened on our server. Iām confirming it right now with people on s10.
Anyone have a calendar of events they can share?
@pulsar hound Well now they are claiming itās available to those who even have the jelly. To win every week at their pleasure I suppose.
@broken ivy This one?
Yep thatās the one @pale cobalt, much appreciated! š»
You're welcome š
@pale cobalt you do not know the specifics on when the mining events are scheduled as well do you?
They couldāve gotten full pulls from armada chests. Iām specifically referring to the auction event.
No worries, thanks again for the chart @pale cobalt
How are territories work on other servers ? Our strongest alliances are now untouchable the imbalance in power levels is now even higher.
@novel spruce same here
you got lucky
Dose anyone know why I have not received the mission box
Except for the nanoprobes, thatās still a very small amount
Last time I only got 2 types of mats not 4
50 charged nanos is hardly a great windfall either...
500 SDC is probably the best pull you can get from that chest though
Yeah love the SDCs
Easy phill and dark
@royal basalt what is your ops level?
20
You might need to lvl up to receive the. Box
Missions are balanced around 25/26 or so
There was no mention of it in the message
I got frequency mods with an already maxed franklin, and 3k ship XP. Not bothering to grind that out again.
lol mine was similar. also got a maxxed franky
It's great for those of us who don't have all the ships and haven't maxed. Probably caters for the masses rather than the few who have maxed most things
Got 4.1k Dāvor parts plus other bits and bobs from mine last night. Was pretty happy with that.
They really could do with some kind of trade system. I'm sure there is a way of making profit from it. Something like the steam trade store, could sell your excess items for real currency and scoply take a percentage.
<@&509690795536941056> why always the 100⬠packs?? If you rly want to make profit then bring more 10-20⬠(good!!) Pack out not those shtty ones where you look at them a laugh at the content.
It's an random outcome within the set parameters, sometimes you win and sometimes you lose š¤·āāļø
Is there another particle event for today 11/26 or are they done for this arc?
Any know if there will be another round of particle events today?
yes, daily event until the end of the current arc
@robust vapor sdc should be guaranteed at least a minimum amount
Arc 3 almost over and I still need 5k sdc for summoning unlock
@halcyon patio would be nice, I agree. I'm also still working towards summoning and need all that I can get. However that's the nature of the beast, it's just a digital slot machine.
I've completed every event that implied sdc earning but I didn't get too much from them
managed to max both researches but now I need 4900 for actual summoning research
Yeah, I assume they'll have further methods to earn them, otherwise you couldn't max your discovery and do the research as a F2P player.
How does one acquire the discovery for free?@robust vapor
@abstract gate right now, you'll have to wait for the next arc. We're expecting an event store and you should be able to get some blueprints from there. Though it's Scopely, there are no promises and some ships are only available as partial sets (multiple event stores required; probably not for the discovery, but the Franklin and D'Vor both require 2 event stores to get a full set)
Is there a level cap for Airiam's Day missions and if yes, what's the level cap? š
according to lcars, ops25+
Sad š Iām about to get ops21 in a few hours
Why sad? Congrats on leveling up!
How do you know that we are at the arc3?
there are 4 arcs this is the 3rd one
there was a news article in your base that stated we're in 3 of 4 parts of the arc, it's gone now unfortunately
When the arc 3 will finish?
another 2 weeks i think
Thank you
arc 4 i think is the away missions addition
arc 1 was introduction of anomlies / discovery arc 2 brought in more officers and ability to summon arc 3 is territories and arc 4 is supposed to be away missions
Crap they won't even let me spend the 40 mission keys before lvl 25? Previous arcs they let you unlock the mission even if you couldn't do it
Now I'm going to have these 40 mission keys sitting in my inventory forever
Give us Faction Hunt please!!!!!!!!!
Just a BP click help event today..... Nothing else?
Hello! I had a quick question, if we have a territory that is disconnected (no warp path) what is the implication? We should still be able to mine in the disconnected territory and will have the previously activated services but if we donāt resecure the territory we cant join any new take overs (because a requirement is to have a continuous territory when entering a new one). We would need to drop the now disconnected territory or resecure it before entering a new take over? Is that correct?
@regal horizon you cannot activate services on any territories, nor can you claim ANY new territories that do not reestablish the link
We ran into a dilemma where our (now disconnected) territory has a second particle and if we dropped it we would have lost the ability to mine for the particle for a week but it impacted our plans to take over a new territory. When trying to take the new territory, we couldnāt enter the take over because our territories were now non-continuous.
are you sure about that you cant claim any new territory?
Q: if we start that service, would we have to restart it after the next takeover or will the service run 7 days if we keep the territory?
Sadly all I have to offer is info I read here
the question is directed to the <@&509691205798592532> and/or <@&509690795536941056> š
Where do I cash in the 40x Mission Key? <@&509691205798592532>
the service will run until the next takeover (2 days), don't waste rss
@opal tree thanks š
Yes, where is Discovery mission 3?
First world alliance problems there @icy grove š
So...these 40 discovery keys...they lose value forever if I can't use them right now because I'm not yet lvl 25...?
@abstract gate š š š
So: got the mission key. How do i start the mission???
<@&509691205798592532>
Also didnt get this:
<@&509691205798592532>
@merry sun ? @twilit imp ?
@pearl ruin ?
Where does it say so? The anouncement doesnāt, the event doesnt
Thats why i ask scopely
Why are players under lvl25 locked out. of content?
Unannounced in any way
Save yourself the emotional distress and move on from it š, thereās still lots to do
As ingame support virtually does not exist, i want answers from Scopley!
To each their own, but I wouldnāt hold my breath... just remember that games like this make most of their money through gatekeeping
Thus making if free for players like me!
Scopely seems to not care at all about their customers in any way.
i want explicit answers form Scopely on this.
Scopely he treats those below level 25 badly, we couldn't go to the territories until several days later and now he doesn't allow us to finish the missions, every time he has more friends
Then send a message to customer support through one of the methods listed in #557163704383438850 and wait until they get around to replying, even the moderators here are not Scopely.
And level gating content has been a thing since forever
If it is level gated, scopely should not promise ALL players the new missions in their announcements
Promising is delivering. If not delivered, it is a plain lie
I have the same question, in all previous events it was possible to get missions for keys even if the level did not allow to complete it. What has changed now and why?
You are going to flip out when you get to broken officer abilities š¤
@south ermine raise a ticket with customer support would be the go. If it's a mistake they can fix it, if not they'll tell you as much; though long wait times currently.
When they answer you, you already have level 25 hahaha
Ingame support is a joke. They virtually never answer any questions
Ticketed this already days ago. No respons
That would be accurate, however the answer more questions than the few actual Scopely staff here.
I believe the current wait time is up to 7 working days due to high number of inquires, just have to be patient
yes but the event would have ended by then
After 7 days they only reply they are looking into it, not giving any answers
Exactly!
Most likely it will be faster for me to jump to level 25)))) I only came to make sure that the reason is the level
I don't know if it's because of the level, I assume it is
Thats one of the problems: you cannot be sure as Scopely doenst say anything on this
It could go up two levels from 23 to 25 but it would be unbalanced and exposed to attacks and not being able to complete the daily missions, which is the point of everything being 25+
And you probably dont get the missions then too
You cant play a strategy when the game itself is failing to deliver the promised content
play eve it doesnt have this trash mechanic
The mechanic isnt trash, scopely is imho
you're right
They will fake false promises to you all and you will keep complaining
We can all be cynical about this, but actually, Scopely should simply give us answers!
Totally unacceptable
Just use boosts to get to 25 then, youāve still got a week!
Ive been playing for 2 years now
It won't be a big problem for me to level up to 25. The question is, is it worth it.
this is never going to happen
As we said above, we do not know if that fixes the problem
Has anyone at level 25 got missions today?
If the prize was character shards Iād understand why youād be upset but the prize is like 100k di
You can raid that in 10 mins š
Exactly
If the missions are worth nothing, the BP rewards are worth nothing too
idk what your bp rewards are at your level
Thatās not true because bp prizes are things you canāt raid
But overall progression in this game will take you years
the prizes serve me
For me at level 21, completing BP is essential for 3* mats and badges
You be flying the same ship for like a year or more till you get enough material to progress
Actually, the amount of mission rewards dont matter in this issue: what matters is that Scopley is lying about gameplay. Apparently deliberately
Actually whole this season is annoying, it's completely built for 25+ levels
well how do you sucker people into games?
When did they ever promise that youād get every mission
This is normal for all of their games they do it purposefully
They didnāt is the answer š
yeah those missions were boring
That says nothing about guaranteed missions
No lvl restriction mentioned, so an offical scopely announcement to all players
In a discord where the presumptive level of players is pretty high
So conclusion: Offical announcements of Scopely are worth nothing at all??
Not for me, so they didnt
What can I say, if youāre not happy you donāt have to keep playing
Absurd nonsens
Are you actually expecting to get a satisfactory answer from a discord where 99% of the answers are from players?..
I want answers from Scopely
You wonāt get them š¤·š»āāļø
Yes, and 99% of the answers are from players here.
Scopely doesnāt owe you, a singular player, anything
Best course of action is file a ticket with customer support and be patient as stated before it can take upto 7 working days, that's the only way you will get an answer from Scopely
Done that.
Not what you want to hear but that's just how it is
Scopley excells at insulting their customers
Panic and Ares don't care about our questions outside of those specific Q&A's on content release. See more Devs answering these days I think, and they're like unicorns themselves..
You've raised your query, you've made a ticket, CS support will eventually reply with some kind of answer. Going on about how unacceptable it is here won't add anything to it, other than annoying the mods maybe š¤·āāļø
If its anything technical they wont answer or if its regarding pricing
They should still say something like "working as intended" or similar, or "we'll have them look into it" š“
As said: ingame support is a joke. Conclusion: No possibility to get any answer anywhere
Signing off
Solution: go away lol
solution do not invest money in people who do not care about their customers
Last time their was an issue with the mission event in a previous content, It was made clear that those events were always meant as an extra gift to those who spent money but because that was never made clear they did compensate everyone who couldn't complete that event but I wouldn't bank on it happening a 2nd time
Is there a level requirement for "the least of me" event?? I got the last key in the BP event and didn't get a mission
What level are you?
24
Damnit...
Youāve got a week to get there
Yea... And 19 hours! I'd better get busy... Thanks Deuce
contantly getting this all night
chest freezing the game when trying to open and same with trying to collect rewards from dailys or events
Is there a level requirement for "the least of me" event?? I got the last key in the BP event and didn't get a mission
Me neither. Never had the 3rd mission key in the gift section.
Gotta be 25 haha
Which is neither mentioned anywhere nor made apparent ingame.
Wording is not Scopely's strong suit but judging by reports it does appear that you need to be ops 25+ to get the missions
To be honest, until someone got those keys at OPS-24 and will level up soon, we wonāt know whatāll happen. Itās an educated guess.
I am ops24... I'll speedup my ops25 now
As with everything else it may take a few mins and/or restarts before it shows if it does show
So that shows you need to be ops 25+ for those missions
I love scopleys idea of amazing packs for sale exact same packs as they always have what a joke
Thanks for posting.
Well that saves me from posting same question thanks for answers about mission requirements
<@&509691205798592532> is there a level requirement for the last mission for 40 keys in the gift section? Some of my alliance members don't have it to accept
Or anyone else who knows?
Ops 25+
Sigh. This event that promotes alliance hopping is tiresome.
yes i agree 100% they need to add hostiles in territory space that drop particles
But only for 15 minutes in 5 random systems triggered every hour on the half hour
it would actually encourage more pvp as territory owners wil want to keep out hostile hunters from their space
Here we go talking about timed events again.. You must have missed all the whining before
Come on some people logged in every hour for 5 days straight. Just because people like you and I need to sleep doesn't mean that everyone else does!
Timed burst event would work if they did it like other games you click to join then the 15min timer starts but can't join again for an hour then it would suit everyone's game playing style and RL schedule
It would also reduce the lag massively around the burst events because not everyone will be doing them at the exact same time
I'm unable to see the Missions for Airiams's Day Part 1 but have the mission keys from the Battle Pass events. I've restarted my device and no change? Any other ideas or simply contact support? I'm on Server 45.
@grizzled rapids are you lvl25+?
Stupid yes, many people losing alb bonuses on our server now, why would scopely encourage behaviour they normally discourage?
How are they encouraging it? No scopely employee (that Iāve seen) has come out openly encouraging dropping tags and joining another alliance. In fact they raised the Alb rewards to discourage this behavior if anything.
@vague vessel No, I'm lv 17 currently.
So below 25 there are no missions, which means the BP rewards were useless.
Also means the BP missions mission āThe Least of Meā canāt be completed either.
Normally in this instance there is some alternative, but it appears not this time..
Am I correct in this assumption?
create a ticket to support about the issue please
Cheers Deadlift
Recommend filing a ticket in game if enough people complain they may correct it in some way
I have asked if it is intended or not but holiday+weekend so wont get an answer till Monday but doubt it is intended because there is nothing said about a lvl25 limit in any OFFICIAL source
I already have ignored tickets in - I donāt see the point putting in more
