I calculated it based on sitting at a spawn site and a hostile spawns once every 5-6 seconds or so (if thats how long it takes) and getting like 270 points per hostile on average
Which would have placed me 5th when I woke up, not 18th
Only need 1 ship
I lost ~85k points because of the armada points
It ain’t a competition to see who Scopely screwed the hardest 😆
Just to prove that the armada thing didn’t affect all players the same way.
I was early on the epics, which meant they didn’t reappear until after they’d fixed it.
the reason the event ended 12 hours before the auction is so people will see they are not where they want to be, Go buy wesley and then make the points to place where they want. It was designed to sell wesley
☝️
Great theory. Except Wesleys not for sale right now
he ended just as the armada event ended
Honestly the armadas wasn't an issue, they were more a couple bonus points at best unless you were lower level and getting 9k points was an all day kind of thing, low 40s you would need to kill the new high level epics for it to be worth it.
The time searching for a new armada after the server hints then all slows grinding, people sitting for 15 min not getting points was dumb, I could grind faster then that
Uh. No they were an issue. A 36 epic armada was like 30k points... Blew quite a few of them when they weren't scoring which screwed up spawn timers etc
i think what he is saying is if you did not wait around for armadas you could make more points killing hostiles.
But realistically I had 2 ships farming hostiles with two ships doing armadas
If you had just one ship doing anything you weren't going to win anyways
25k and in the 15 min it took for the timer to go down I could get more points then the armada would give in the same amount of time
Level 43, tier 8 Augur... No Armadas only ship going was my Augur
What? If you were killing solely level 41s it would take you 12 minutes to kill 60 hostiles to match an epic. That's if you didn't have to move your ship and hit one every 1 second between the 5 second cool down...
Oh you level 43 right. So you can hit dark space
Whale problems 🤷♂️
The people that are the most upset, are people without access to deep space where those big armadas could make or break thier leaderboard
Anyone at 42 and up could hit the lvl 46-47 systems and get 2-3000pts per hostile
The spawn rate for epics and rares were still to high, by the time they fixed the issue they were all gone, leaving uncommon that were worth garbage points anyway
I’m 38, didn’t hunt in dark space, used my augur and killed loads of 49 capital traders and made 4th both days, plus joined a few normal armadas
Personally, I am not upset about any of it, shit happens. But I was in 2 39 Epics and 4 39 UC before the issue was fixed
Again, the people upste with the issue are the mid 30s that either don't have thier Epic G3 yet, or it is low enough tier that its super innefficient to kill the 49s in Capitol systems
I have a T4 Ent with T5 Hull plating, it takes me a full hull to kill 1 trader. I went to a klingon system in normal space with my two lower ships while I was hunting armadas, I swapped to deep space and did hostile killing after all the armads were dead and gone and teh issue was fixed
How was the low 30s bracket split, were they in with 38/39s or 34/35s??
I did the entire thing just grinding in wolf and groombridge with my base in wolf at ops 35 weaving in armadas
Our server literally killed every high level normal space armada in the time it took them to fix the issue
I think it was 37-39, not sure below that
My bracket was 35/36. It was different for this event for some reason
Usually it's 34-35
Same on our server
It conclusion, the event itself was poorly planned, but wasn't a BAD event. The real problem was teh HUGE armada issue right at the start where 10s of 1000s of directives were spent in that first 2hrs. Those people that blew all thier directives soley for the event, got screwed
Personally, I spent 200UC directives, I just power bumped my way into the other armadas
any info abou compensation chest?
Ok so people that didn't have rpic ships weren't competing with people who could hit DS
Then it would have come down to how effectively they used crew, I'm guessing most of the high level epics and rares were gone before the points got fixed
I personally don't want to see this type of event come back. EVER.
Not true. Not everyone at OPs 37+ has thier epic ship yet. Bad luck with armada chests and not wanting to spend coin on ship BPs or faction credits etc
I didn't build my Ent until OPs 38
People knew the armadas weren't working properly after the first 15-20 min, if you keep dumping in armada tokens on something that you know doesn't score properly why would you keep wasting them??
The official word in Disc was it was a lag issue and the points would accumulate after
But that’s down to personal game play, in reality you can get your epic from ops 34, so in the design if your 37 you’ll have your epic by then. I understand what you mean cos I didn’t have mine till 38 too, but that’s not how the game was designed
Because it could have been lag like half the events that happen lately instead of a flat out not counting?
Hell the mods on this discord initially passed it off as lag and told people to wait
I was referring to people below level 34 that couldn't get them
Fair enough
And at the start of an event that is a valid response because we have seen that before
Yep exactly I don't blame their response
Took me an hour to look on Discord, I stopped after I saw it scored as a hostile and not an armada, meaning a coding error not a lag issue
It's why people were OK with still starting armadas because they thought it would come good
Also knew they wouldn't retro after we got points for running Eclipse and getting event points
That response by then probably leveled the playing field, by the time the fix was up all the rare and epics would be gone
Basically they need to PR their way out of this, say they screwed up, have the facepalm avatar, some useful directives and fix it for next time with double the Picard shards
Im just mostly annoyed with the logic for tie breakers lol. Being bumped to third sucks 😂
They won't hand out the avatar, just a big old chest, and it will be big, that's why we haven't gotten it yet
The avatar solves the irony issue 😆
People are only this upset because of the avatar
Exactly
Give everyone the facepalm avatar, and it can forever be the day Scopely facepalmed the facepalm avatar event.
Of all the events to screw up, the facepalm one 😂
They probably plan to run it a couple times, that avatar is a money pit
Chuck the rainbow gun in there instead.
Still no compensation for Rift 3 but at least I am not on server 32
Ugh...cosmetics should never give bonuses...and when the hell are they going to put all this stuff into away missions, I'm not buying a pack to increase my warp, or getting extra damage on a territory capture mode
Yeah, it’s a bit…. Not cricket.
Take a leaf out of TF2’s book, balance positives with some negatives.
Or make it cosmetic.
Let me exchange the billion random event token garbage that I've been collecting and just sits there for stuff
that would actually be a great PR move @nova valley
Sometimes owning your mistakes and playing to them - showing a sense of humour - goes a very long way.
And everyone who finished 1-4th get a full unlock of Picard right.... Right??
Nah, bin it off as a bad job, run it post arc again or double the loot in the middle.
Gives people time to recover their armada tokens.
I'm down to 9,405 uncommon and 4,500 rare... I don't really do armadas 😂
oh boi I didn't get points for that armada, lets try again
oh boi again no points, welp lets try again
still no points well lets try again
pretty much the logic of the players in this game 😂
yeah but after more than 1 attempt and alot checked discord to complain and saw was broken
and they still continued
@dapper drum Because we were told in this Discord that it was a lag issue and should resolve, took over an hour for them to announce it was bugged and they would not retroactively award points
honestly I'm glad it was SNAFU
would have had no chance against those who spent to win
What a nice person you are 🤣
instead I got to leave them in the dust
I spent 70m rss and 2500 30m speedups to score 1.3m points in 12 hours
so someone comes in buys 300$ of armada packs and takes 1st in few hours would be pita
But it’s the way of the game.
But it wasn’t just the spenders.
yeah the patient hoarders
glad they got shafted too
I have 0 luck at getting directives from chests
In fact, the spenders just go “ah well, I’ll buy another”
The patient hoarders sit there having lost everything for nothing.
And you celebrate it?
What a deeply unpleasant approach to gaming 👀
Spenders just be like “sorry dahling, gonna need to cut back on the cocaine and caviar today”
they still got the credits
they could have grinded like me for the win
not my fault they didn't
Ah, so your way is the only way and the best way to play.
Lemme guess, American? 👀
if it gets me a win yes
MURICA!
and no
I have no sympathy for people who didn't get an easy win
they still got to do the arms and got the credits
so nothing lost
It ain’t an easy win, it’s a different win.
You wanna throw hulls at it, they threw dirs at it.
So? Let em have it.
What’s happened here is people that have done that, lost their dirs, not scored points, and don’t have them for other events either.
they didn't lose their directives
Well, they have.
they just didn't get an easy win
they still got what they would have got for those directives regardless
If you’re one of those crayon munchers that pushes buttons when they light up instead of doing it when you get max rewards then no, they haven’t lost anything.
But everything in this game unless you’re a wallet is about doing it at the right time.
crayons are delicious
And they were robbed.
Well they were.
they got exactly what those directives were meant for
they are just whining because they didn't get their easy win
No I just don't feel like everyone should be so entitled
To what they were promised?
want a participation trophy try farmville
How dare they!
they were not promised anything
The event says completely different 🤣
they bought a pack and got exactly what the pack stated
the pack didn't say anything about the event
👀
I bought this 60k mercedes and I got a 60k mercedes but I didn't get the ribbon that shown on the showcase
I want a full refund!
NOW!!!!
entitled whiners
A full refund and keep the car 😂😂
thats what they are saying
they want refund even though they used the directives and the extras that came in the pack
No, most of us would be happy with the points 🤣
that event doesn't guarantee you anything to do with the pack
But they’ve said they can’t do that.
But… what the heck are you even on about?
Just a bitter not-a-whale, complaining about whales 😂
people are demanding refunds because they couldn't get points
but still used the directives
I don’t want a refund 🤣
My directives weren’t bought. They were earned through grind.
well you can't get the points event is over
you get a chomp chest with extra free directives instead
thats a plus
you could have just killed hostiles for the event instead of griping
That’s a big f you and you know it.
I’m down an epic and a rare and I get a fraction of those back?
His point is you still got the credits still got to open a credit chest
you got shafted for event and whined instead of doing it another way
If I needed them, I wouldn’t have saved the dirs.
It’s the first time they’ve done so badly at shafting an event.
Points lags have been fixed before, but they just didn’t score these.
No it's not 😂
And to make it up for the lack of points that would have made a material difference to the outcome of the event)
Have a couple of directives and a couple of shards.
If they’d scored it properly I’d have had about 10 more shards 🤣
now you get 5 and free directives and you still got the arm rewards
Monch monch
@rough mulchplease let the devs know I enjoy these type of SNAFU/FUBAR events that don't roll out properly
really gives me joy later too in chat
Monch
also why I wait until around 1 hour after an event launch to see what is bugged
Oh, yeah - that’s sensible after the last arc 🤣
been sensible since before arcs were a thing
Where if you started the event early you got bonus points.
No, after the last arc where they proved starting them early was a good thing to do, it’s not been sensible.
Releasing things that you’ve tested properly; that’s a good thing to do.
Acknowledging the issue and fixing it or telling people not to do something (rather than saying it’s lag); that’s a good thing to do.
Wailing on players who have been shafted by Scopely screwing things up, that’s a clownshoe thing to do.
they don't have as much access
Yeah, cos Scopely said nothing while tens of thousands of directives went in.
and are you shocked?
Not “we’re aware, probably best not to do them cos we can’t backdate the points”
I’m disappointed that a fellow gamer thinks that his peers being down is a good thing.
But I guess that shows all where you’re at; success at everyone else’s cost, not fair play.
yeah when grinding pays off of course someone gonna gloat and laugh
I would hands down rather lose a fair fight, than win an unfair fight.
Nah, grinding didn’t pay off, a mistake gave it to you.
You earned nothing 😆
more than 98 players in my bracket
Beating spenders on their terms, that’s paying off.
there was a spender in my bracket tried to get into 2nd towards end
was jumping up 40k on top of the 25k he was grinding
I was going non stop 10 hours with 2 ships on 42/43/44 hostiles
But why do those of us who saved our directives have to be shamed by someone?
What a nasty piece of work.
PMC on one and cadets on the other.
Too right, missed that bit. The guy’s a troll and I’ve stuck him on block. No time for someone that extracts misery from others being shafted.
The last thing people should be doing when they’re getting Scopely’d is laughing at their peers getting Scopely’d harder.
Wouldn't that depend on the ships he was using, and/or the repair bills he racked up 🙂
When I came out of deep space to do armadas. I ran cadets in the high spawn areas. My battle rhythm was to port down, join armada. Send frankie a to deep space (15 min trip) run augur in ty gokor with PMC and d4 in andoria with cadets. At all times while active, points were accumulating. Then went back to deep space grind at end of armada.
@indigo perch if one took his time to play in the early beginning of the event it’s not fair to the ones that played later the day were they had counted their Armadas properly and the Eventtime was not prolonged and im still missing my directives that I and my comrades spent wich didn’t count and without directives you can’t start Armadas anymore even if the bug was solved so still shitty
Fair is where you go to get cotton candy..I dont do "fair" discussions.
Sorry didn’t want to abuse you in any way I’m just still waiting for Scopely to grant any sort of compensation/excuse. ( „or to pay for better programmers“ 🤭)
@sullen ermine I'm a competitor at heart. I would love to talk about how players adapted to the change. The golf ball flies further on a dry afternoon than it does on a humid morning, yet the pro's still stagger the start. The competitior adapts.
On a different note, if the playing field is not even, or a player cheats, that is a different story, but as long as every competitior has the same conditions and choices, then the competition is good. I enjoyed competing live on this board. My leaderboard and bracket, is well represented across the time zones. Positions 1 to 3 beat me fair and square. And if position 5 sneaks up and takes me out with wesley, that's okay to. I had fun with it.
Wise speaking
Well in golf you would use a different club. Max range on drives is not the key factor in winning a golf tournament
Using analogies doesnt really support anything related to the game lol
That all just looks like deflection to me

PMC on Augur (T6), Kirk Gorkon Khan on Ent(T7) and killing 42/43 interceptors
6-8 per hull
and cost me 65m trit for 1.3m points
According to the in game news, there's supposed to be an armada event... but it's not there
Yep. No event🙈😂
where are the new events with armadas? Is something broken again? or does this arch promise to be the new record holder for malfunctions?💩
A. Missing Armada events for today;
B. I can see the Jelly Pursuit even though I already have one
@gilded patrol ditto
already have one so why am I seeing this event////
oh for the love of christmas....not again ???!!
it has been 5 minutes! EVERYONE PANIC!
<@&509691205798592532> please send this up to live ops. No armada event and jelly event for those who already have jellies.
Server 008 confirmed same issue
& server 026
i dont have a jelly .... yet again pointless me even trying to compete.
Last time i sent feedback via a ticket - support told me it was working as intended ??!
Server 159 confirms this issue
eu server 32 too
🤣 🤣 a jellyfish event for someone who already has 2!!
Same on 16
Incould try to get my 5th jelly 🤣
🍆 🤣
<@&509691205798592532> jellyfish pursuit targeting error. I have had one since January
Wheres the logic in this? https://i.imgur.com/zauLI22.png I want my Picard avatar 😡
Jelly pursuit Bug also on server 156
🍿 anyone?
Where is armada event?
can 🐱 have extra 🐭 with his 🍿 ?? plz
I've escalated the targeting of jelly pursuit. Will let you all know when we hear back 🖖
What a pathetic joke.
wow lvl 50 in my server scored 4m
Yeah, no.
in jellyfish pursuit
There you go
Yeah, we spent a LOT of directives before the fix.
@delicate moth Can we also get some events to do please? At this rate, I'll have to actually go outside 😅
We were supposed to have Armada events for Alliance LB and Solo MS today, according to the calendar
Iss jelly event is a secondary glitch. Let’s focus on the actual event
Actually if you count everyone who equalled score in my leaderboard alone, 21st place was equal 10th. That's more people who didn't get the avatar than did, on the same number of points. PATHETIC
When you have litteraly no chance of starting the mission chain because you cannot select the "!" 😄
Confirmed, missing Follow the Leader and Armada Resistance events.
Ughhh jelly pursuit messed up Again......
Tap a ship near there and use the arrows by the targeting window until it selects the mission marker
@chilly venture select the ship, then use the arrows to cycle
Thanks, didn't even think of that
Let us know how it goes. I've raised a ticket for my server too
Yeah we had 5 who tied for 19th place. So 3 just didn't get the additional rewards
Seriously why are ties split up? Why not just have them share a point outcome. They pushed a ton of people out of the top 20
Kill them.
Learned the hard way that you have to collect rewards as soon as possible...whoever gets the rewards first wins the tie. Not a great way (all should get the rewards IMO) but "it is what it is" until they decide to address it.
Ehh Since when was the lockout from the ISS jelly event removed if you already had one, On EU172 we got several former winners in the current event
Same here on Server 23
Not so, Whoever gets there last gets it. If you are first and someone ties you, you slide down the board
Hmmmm....wasn't my experience if I recall correctly but admit I could be wrong.
It has been a while
It's that way, and support does not know that so they say person at the top got there first when you put a ticket in.
Where is the Armada Resistance event?
Sounds entirely plausible
Bonus refinery would help appease the players... Just saying.
<@&509691205798592532> Is there an explanation on why previous players with Jelly's are ranking in the current IIS Jelly Event?
Yeah good question ^^
The brackets are also off check your server
normal
okay, just got to 36 😄
im 41 have jelly event (already have jelly) not normal
Yeah, all the whales on my server are showing up on jelly event
as you can see i already have the ship, this makes the event a tad unfair for those 36-39
Could we get an update on the Missing Armada Event please?
It's been too long.
Thank you Scopeley for opening the Jelly event to everyone👍🏻😂
Im not sure if i need another one. Can build number 4 atm but a 5th??? Only Scopely knows why 🙈🙊 yeah any info for the armada event would be nice😊
just a myth .... an old legend that is told by a few old wise people
Still waiting for official word on these issues....
Takes some time... 😂
Isn’t there supposed to be a follow the leader event?
well im just going to say it, comp chest, what a complete joke, im assuming eveyone got the same, me and the wife play on diffeent servers im lvl38 and she is lvl 32 and both got the same crap and she didnt even do anything in the event, absolute joke
Shame they took away hostile hunting for Jelly prints, by the time I'm ready to get a Jelly
Seems to be an issue with multiple events atm not showing. Fuzzy will inform us when he knows more.
You know when there is an event issue I come here and i start at event reset (noon) reading messages instead of just immediately posting questions
Got word from scopely on the Jelly event, upon a dev realising the event had no bugs they have now fixed it plenty of bugs are there now
Yeah my leaderboad is totally ruined people that have won the jelly before are scoring for it
👆
building more than 1 jelly is not cheap
Unfortunately I added a cargo bay. No points on jelly event
Anyone knows what is with this event? I don’t see it. Thanks
Do you have the mats???
It’s an Erik B and Rakhim event
i preferred doug e fresh 😛
Last player on our server that asked about that got told “tough”
The jelly event is broken...what a shock
Rob Bass!!!
You don’t need a jelly 😂😊
The comp chest for rift 3 bites. My wife and I both play I'm level 27 and she is level 21. We both got the comp chest and she got way more everything than I did.
ahh memories, just when hip hop was going main stream, breakdancing and all that shnazz
Good times
i was first and last. I got to third in the meta after the first two days. in Rift 3 the former 7th place came in 3rd and took 3rd place in the meta. I took 4th in rift 3 and 4th in the meta. Aka I was 3rd in rift 1 and 4th in rift 3. And ended in 4th, tied with 3rd in the meta
Everyone got the same. Post screenshot.
Wish I could post a screen shot, she claimed it then told me what she got. Like with the picard shardd she got 21 where I only got 5
@rough mulch any news about armada event?
An uncanny knack for stating the obvious
Can this be considered as an official statement?
More Incase anyone is expecting it to pop up in 10-30 minutes or something.
Not to hold your breath
I believe I am 77th in this event!
Just confirming there are level 50s on the leaderboard that have won the jelly event
But these directives are burning holes in my pocket 🤣
@rough mulch Any update, on why the IIS Jellyfish event is messed up?
Oh sorry one Dev of Scopely said that 'tied scores' would be broken by the end of the event!......pure lies to stop messages about the blatant error Scopely have made!
I dunno but I'm 2m points invested already so I'm a bit peeved😡
I bet
TY btw, i was just trying to be funny.. keyword=trying
random question. Does @fresh peak ever speak?
It wouldn't be legit. Only a published tie breaker protocol made known before the event starts would be legitimate.
So mathematics doesn't count?
I don't think wesley (the tie breaker) sold well
64th to at least 120th have the same points! That means 64th to at least 120th get the same rewards.....basic mathematics mate!
Not abtie breaker at all but there goes proff on my point.....zero understanding of maths!
not necessarily, i was tied with third and got the 4th place reward. I have written 7 levels of tiebreakers into a tournament spreadsheet and I'm not even a programmer
That is also incorrect though
You should have got 3rd place rewards, simple maths again!
So the question now is added to....you have been robbed and so have 20+ people on my event!
Again, not necessarily, it depends on the published rules and since no rules were publish, nothing that comes after will be appropriate. In some cases the rewards are pooled and evenly distributed among the tied players.
This isn't a tie breaker issue ffs!
It is basic mathematics
But again, you don't understand do you?
If 1st is tied 100th then all get the same rewards if 50th is tied with 150th then all get the 50th reward!
he answer you want to hear is not the one i'm going to give you. Its not a math question
It is a maths question, I know, I posed that question!
Again lies from a non understanding dev!
bye
You do realise I'm a programmer yeah?
You can't program for toffee mate and your basic code is flawed.....why then be so defensive? Simple errors met with anger by those who write the error into code!
So today’s very special event brought to you special from scopely- the broken events day where all events are broken and will still take your money to tell you that it’s an event special called broken events day….
The event has cheated at least 20 people on my server out of rewards that 36 people were paid rewards for scoring the same as least 20 others as proved by the screenshot and still Scopely and the devs argue their code is correct! Absolute cowboys!
Nice announcement on the ISS jelly event.. basically for those that invested are out of luck now cause they’ll run the event again next week?!?.. great way to “fix” the crap mess you made! How about refunding the mats invested or hey.. remove the ineligible players from the event as it runs now?
Typical bandaid approach
Completely ridiculous, they messed the event up, they ought to give some compensation for their bad launch
because next week i'll be able to redo some 4* prime research....
Any Devs on? That’s a lousy and very disappointing and misappropriate fix for these current broke events.. money and time was already spent and we get nothing? Please respond that this is not the case…
same response from scopely as previous times they mucked up.
Still they make the mistake.....
Those that jumped at event start on the Jelly pursuit are royally pizzed. some spent millions in points and now its open to anyone causally doing upgrades. so a high ops person doing one building or research can squish an ops 38 persons attempt at getting a Jelly.
this is not just an "oops, my bad moment, try again next week"...
I don't need the event but advocating for those that do... <@&509691205798592532> Sorry for 2 "at's" in 24 hours but wanted to make sure this wasn't missed.
I'm royally annoyed by this.
I didnt Upgrade anything with greens for over two month
Ive been saving my construction and research that’s required mats and started them as soon as I saw the jelly event
Then I saw a lvl 50 blow past me as he likely upgraded one building
No thanks
But I’ll be sure to try again next week /s
Same.. 2.5mil pops up 2 min after the event starts..
How are they not fixing the jelly event!
the store is open, that's their fix.
Must not be a bug.. they must be trying to sell it off as a feature
See.. you want it fixed.. buy buy buy
@rough mulch @fresh peak @harsh terrace Very simple fix. End the event immediately. Give everyone 30 prints for every 1mil points scored. Run event as planned next time without the screw up. Problem solved, pitchforks and torches back in closets.
Those players who already have one arent likely to gain an advantage with more prints and those who scored in the event will be given fair compensation for the mistake.
Only other acceptable option would be to somehow go back and individually restore every single rss or mat used by players who were trying to score to win, but that seems a lot harder than my suggestion above.
Edited to ping Devs.
So after spending loads of mats and directives, you now tell me you’ve messed up the event and it will be run again next week, ha what a joke , here’s the problem I’ve already spent everything so I can lose on this event you have messed up.
To anyone who scored in the event, recommend sending in a ticket. This is a mistake and players who have been wronged by the mistake should be compensated. And so long as they are, everyone can move on and have a happy weekend.
Really not an acceptable solution for those that spent mats and will be pushed out by the high levels. Running it again next week just means they miss out ranking in two events.
And this is coming from someone who already has a jelly and didn't score in the event.
This is a worrying trend, an absolute ignorance of the impact they have had.
imho definitely the way to go.
it needs to cost them --- they'll keep making the same mistakes month after month otherwise.
“Oh well, better luck next time!”
but to make it fair you get to loose it next week also when it runs again, you lucky basterd.
Seriously people still surprised when scopely F... up.
Its wat they do frequent and almost made an art out of it 🤣🤣
Thank you very much scopely, I'd like my mats back please. I waited to build and research for this event, but been pushed out already by players that have the ship or bps
Mistakes and all, I still enjoy the game and the community. And as such, event though i already have my jelly through months of chest pulls, I sent an in game ticket, posting here and DM's with others. Best way forward is for everyone to do the same. Don't need to crucify the mistake so long as players who were negatively affected are fairly compensated for materials and rss used during this erroneous event.
Ok, the timing of the announcements makes it feel like the reason we aren't getting much communication or great solutions regarding the past two days' issues is because the team has been working on developing rules for unofficial STFC football.
No.
... seriously!?!
Community Manager doesn’t run or fix events only works with different departments and shares/passes on feedback/concerns and does community initiatives and what not. Expecting anything else is silly - as for Mods we are volunteers and do as best we can with info we have or are allowed to pass on
@candid karma what u doing in here
last time i contacted support about it - i got a reply "the scoring/event targeting was working as intended" 🤔
on the soccer topic : in the front the players, and behind the devs 🤣🤣
Kaution makes a good point guys , don’t be going nûts at them it’s not there fault , there just stuck in the middle to deal with scopelys mess.
Thank you for the clarification. Can you suggest alternatives to in game tickets as a way for players on the official discord to get in touch with the Devs/Publisher to try to get the issue corrected?
Ops levels of my current jelly event leaders:
47
43
42
43
44
CM, Mods and Content Creators are the go betweens. Players going direct to Devs or Design isn’t exactly normal, sometimes other employees do visit this discord but it’s upto them when that happens
Honestly seems like none of our feedback or concerns make it to the devs at this point.
Yes, I know that's in reality how it works. But when there have been several mistakes made and the response is, seemingly, "yeah, we're working on it. In the meantime, let's pretend to play football. Don't worry about all those mats you've been spending or those tied scores we don't have a solution to yet!"
Thank you again for the additional info. Any help you, other moderators or the CM can do to help is appreciated.
hey Q good to see you mate, just having a laugh at greedly.. oopps my bad scopely 🤣🤣
I appreciate what you do and 100% recognize there are multiple teams and groups in play.
To be fair, the announcement reaches many discord’s and goes out to everyone - not every player has the same concerns or problems as a fraction of people on this discord
Fair enough
Today is the start of the Euros so, with Ares schedule and plans for it, it was announced
Speaking of... I really like fraction hunts
Quick question and not sure if it's already been covered but wasn't there already an 'Armada Resistance' event planned for the 18th? So with today's being postponed does that mean we are only getting one this arc or will we still get two?
gotta find those whole numbers somehow
@ashen lava I know what u mean, I'm ops level 39 and am unlikely to score any jellyfish bp's..... again, it seems completely out of my reach..
Not sure on this, I will try and find out
Will be from 18-20
Is postponed according to the jellynews
Well with sod all to do in game I decided to have a read in here.
Not sure why jelly prints aren't just free flowing anyway. If you have the prints, you are gonna want to build it. If you build it, you are gonna want to upgrade it.......If only I had Jelly prints.....why would a marketing department bottleneck a huge cash cow...
You start getting them in OPs 38 Epic Armada chest ¯_(ツ)_/¯
43/120 I'm never gonna bother with the Jellyfish pursuit event, I'll just build one when I get teh BPs from Armada chest
If you want anytime getting Ops 50 without spending Thousands of dollar you need the Jelly for grinding! The D4 are okay too but not as good as a ISS Jelly!
Isn't that a different event? I thought today's was this one
No you dont
And kumari prints from level 44 hostiles
😆
Seems so, nice having almost two identical event names 😂
This Game is long term and you dont need 5 Years for this if you follow the Guides and plan everything, Grind Events and invest clever! I will reach March 2023 ops 50! Everything is possible if you have a Plan and dont play brainless!
level 39 is my chosen end game so Black Jelly does not make sense for me. Its all about the enterprise, everything else is filler
Game will likely shut down before 2023 if the trend of ultra exclusive content continues.
I think timelines is still running
Na more important to figure out how to play soccer in game rather than make it work
They have a minimum of 3+years of Arc content just from existing Star Trek Series
Yeah bit their player base is getting smaller and smaller
nah they only test how far they can gone! Not more. Community Feedback is important but always be nice and dont hate!
🤣
there is always someone to shoot or a station to raid, or else play the boring mining simulator 🤣🤣🍻
Again, this was something worked on before today - and was scheduled to announce today as it’s start of Euros. Don’t be so petty please
It’s not Ares fault that events had problems
just extremely bad timing with all the other scopely coding mistakes made over the last couple days
Years*
I've played a few games were content went exclusive and they all shuttered their doors soon after. Regardless how much content they have to give players start to leave when they realize they have no realistic chance to get it. Look at the vidar skin, so far only one player in the 40-50 bracket on each server has one. Then we had the Data release and now Picard is looking pretty exclusive.
Can you please write ONE Thing Serious and without Joking?
Its just rediculas someone spent 20,000 uncommon for the jelly just to have a level 50 blow past him
What happened to the scheduled “follow the leader”event…have I missed an announcement?
Where is the compensation for that?
do you not have any raiding to do ? 😹
ISS Jelly are not made for PVP! Its a NPC Grinder
only at nights 😉 its to early
Sorry man i am on my 6th 7 day shield
I just figured out why it rubbed me the wrong way. Ares isn't acknowledging that anyone is having any issues. Not even a "hey, we're looking into this. We'll update you as soon as we can! In the meantime, Euro starts today!"
Makes it feel like he isn't paying attention to what's going on. But you are right. I am letting it go and stopping being petty 🖖
Not on you guys just annoyed that events dont work. Its the devs and suits not the mods i have issue with
The Mod announcement should have covered that @frosty jackal
Bloody useless
hey look we'll throw another jelly event on targeted at relevant players next week, but we don't give a crp that you've already spent all your uncommons so spend more money on us
I'm dropping it 🖖
Impossible to compete with the whales now that they've took the top 5
save it for next week
if you are in the first 4 Places you should get your Rewards..... If you invest in a Event and dont look if you can win this before you start it s your own fault..... I look carefully in every Event and start on the last Day to invest if the Points are not to high at this point! Dont run blind in Events!
There are events like the wesley event right now you cant wait on
This isn't one of those
Yeah totally I was in the top 2, then all the 47+ players came in and took the spot
🍻🍻🍻 just nice to have day off. 😂
I'm not even 38, last I checked the high end players are meant to be in a different league of events
Why did you start invest on first day? You give other people the chance to put money in the game and take your place! Be smart and start on last day!
If you wanna Win Events you need to play Dirty!
The devs are doing the dirty
Tool
I think the Jellyfish event has always been Server wide OPs 37+
No i say only that the Way some People play Events are not smart! Thats all
I cant even 100% blame the devs( programmers not leadership) i am sure the turn around time for content is 0
The warhammer last crusade devs do a better job at events and they're worst than scopely for content
I see the report that armada resistance was delayed until the 18th. I want to point out, it was ALREADY scheduled for the 18th, so this iteration is cancelled, not postponed
Ok language issue with my previous post we should expect issues with scopley then
Negative the 40 pluses haven't seen the event for them till they received a jf, the guy in first atm has over 8 jf, can't compete at all
Ouch? 😱🤣🤣
You can see the event when you are OPs 36 because that's when you can start getting the ISS JF prints in the epic armada chest box. However, they made a change months ago that as soon as you built the ship, you would no longer see the event and wouldn't be able to spike the points (intentionally or not). And it was a great change. Just like they have done now with the Stella skin.
hi may I ask a question regarding the jelly event ? I bought mine for 800 bucks but I still want to get mine next month, so it means I cant get a free one from that event now, since i bought it already ??
@keen ledge hi may I ask a question regarding the jelly event ? I bought mine for 800 bucks but I still want to get mine next month, so it means I cant get a free one from that event now, since i bought it already ??
if you can see the event you can win it, but it might be hard since all jelly owners can see it too
thats not the question here, there is a new announcement that states something odd
"The team is aware that the current run of the ISS Jellyfish Pursuit is incorrectly targeted and allowing previous winners and owners of the ISS Jellyfish to compete "|
Why the Donald Duck would you want two expensive boats to grind?!
The Jellyfish is a platform to better ships.
So, the compensation for the Scopely screw up on the Picard event was less than 10% of the directives used. Not to mention the extra time it took to grind hostiles since the points were lost. Beyond disappointing.
Like all of them really.
Yep.
waited 5 months to get the free one and im not gonna just slip by
If you already bough one, why you want another?
cuz I want to... thats not the point
the point is why the hell im not able to get another one towards event that i never even won
Because jelly event is the main source of jelly bp, and is only accessible to people without jelly to stop people from winning ship they don't need
I never won one, i just bought one, so if I spend money im not able get event for the free on ?
You have a jelly. You can't participate in jelly event
Devs currently have as much use as a pet rock
Well. Except when they feck the event 😆
Compensation was more focused on the shards
Woo 5 shards vs the other 175 you must attain just to unlock him, alas his abilities are shet
Unless there's a reasonable path to unlock him, I'd argue that holds very little value
Kinda like people who bought stellas got nailed bybthem adding it for free a bit ago
The only value they understand is £££
Whereas everyone was playing it for the facepalm.
Another moderately useful officer we have to send away for weeks on end to come back empty handed will turn up when he turns up.
i was in to position for finishing picard
facepalm isn't an avatar I'd use, and I'm wasting it now because of my high placing
I have 10 picard shards, next year I will.have 10 picard shards
Hows this compensation worth it?
DON’T WORRY ABOUT THE ARMADA EVENT WE PROMISED AND DIDN’T DELIVER….. instead here is an ISS Jelly event (ooopsie) which you won’t be able to win because the whales are in it (LOLs @ you) and a pretendy event for the footy starting. Lots of LOLs, Scopely 💋
don't spam
Never underestimate the picard facepalm, A good consolation would be a Common Picard Double facepalm which would made the community smile over the self awareness Scopely would shown with that as a consolation @fresh peak
The compensation should have been towards the directives spent, I can’t get any of the epic directive I spent back, and it take so dang long to collect them in the first place, I’ve already spent too much on this poorly managed game, and this “compensation” proves you don’t care about the players
@steady seal hit the nail on the head right there mate
Not that hard for them to so what you are saying.
Just remember refinery bug, they individually restored raw material and took away refined one...
But hey, now it's not a player beneficial bug :see_no_evil:
you do realize that most brackets had way more than 5 shards for 100th place, right? I mean, you have to know that so many brackets gave out so many more than 5 shards at 7th...
They dont care, we are wasting our time
I was talking about in general its server-wide, obviously if you already have it its not supposed to show up
SCOPLEY (un)OFFICIAL COMMS:
DON’T WORRY ABOUT THE ARMADA EVENT WE PROMISED AND DIDN’T DELIVER….. instead here is an ISS Jelly event (ooopsie) which you won’t be able to win because the whales are in it (LOLs @ you) and a pretendy event for the footy starting. Lots of LOLs, Scopely 💋
That's the but that's itching me, the ones who have several are donning the leaderboard and they couldn't give two shits
everything is "on our to do list", but yet nothing seems to be done. The refits *are not just cosmetic -- they tied buffs to them. O
Officers are not just cosmetic -- they are a key aspect of the game.
I'm tired of hearing "on our to do list" at this point. They can fix the availability of old content inside of existing mechanics.
add a TOS chest into the game we can buy with premium or ultra shards. Give us disco recruit tokens at more than a dribble pace.
and add Lorca to the stupid Disco recruits full time.
Photon tokens - stop dang-well trolling @loud solar on them, and just implement them for everyone. The code is there, just patch the old servers..
add refits into the cosmic cleanup chests, at the very least.
@heavy cradle they couldn't care less about any of it
these are all things that can, and should, be done without needing to patch the game.
I know @spark monolith - because player experience is tied around spending, and folks will just keep dumping cash in for 💩
Yes stop locking the refits to leaderboards only
they've literally told me that they have a number for my "account experience" tied around my spending.
lol
or locking them out completely for some unknown amount of time, to then randomly drop in as a "surprise leaderboard"!
ooooh the scopely buckets?
I commend you, Rev, for calling out the Devs, even if it meant losing your official CC status.
until we keep continually calling out these bad practices, we're going to get the same garbage responses.
Kinda makes the shards worthles if you cant use them
That you'll never get to spend as they're not making any dollars from it
not just any dollars, though. oh no. Leaderboard Dollars.
Yeah the go sell your kidney type of dollars
@loud solar - you did notice that the leaderboard behind you on that last video showed way more than 5 shards at lvl 20+, btw?
Give us an option to convert old currency to something new. At a loss of course. Or just delete(jettison) outdated junk
yea
i need the ability to jettison parsteel from my ships, thanks
so.. complete unawareness of the brackets? or willfull ignorance that no one under ops39 would fact check him?
excellent video, btw.
I think that's the uninstall button...
It doesn't jettison their mistakes though, it avoids it
Although this latest mistake has decided that i dontveven bother with the $20 pass this time
I asked g play for the monthly pack refund as I never recieved my items xD
Dno what they'll say
hey, at least all these issues helps to make folks not read the event text for the refraction beam slb...
Gain power, top like 7 I think
So far, this is the first month since I started I haven't bought the battlepass
Not bought it either
after TOS3 I stopped buying the $20 elite pass. It's like they despise folks that can only spend $20 with how they treat that tier of purchases now.
like - we really don't want to offer it, but we've been told we have to.
The amount of Mats hasn't changed which is nice, but the can GFTM with these refresh tokens and Away speedups
Just bought the £92 monthly pack which swiftly is getting refunded
the only thing remaining of value from when those passes were incredible are the mats and rss - i.e. things you can earn in game "free" every day. Anything else that was special has been stripped away and replaced with, at best, away team refresh tokens.
And measly amounts of iso
insulting amounts, tbh
The ISO amounts in the BPass is stupid. LIke, don't even bother including unless you are giving enough for a Research level
Skipping last months $100 pack made the $50 show up
When I need 30-40k to do 1 research and you give me 500, you can take off eh
500 covers a few days of terrority store at least lol
A fart in a jar is worth more
Few days? One click of duranium and its gone
1 refine for me of iso 1 is almost 2k, though. So great, I just skipped 1/4 of a refine?
I do a Full Iso 1* Refine and get 4500 Emulsion
and again, something easily attainable for free in game
calm your language blackwolf
Even our whales are pissed off, they don't care about the whales either
oh, but S45 whales haven't paid enough in yet to be the ones they care about... gotta be the old whales that have spend $250k+ to really get attention.
Prob be banned when I log in after chewing support a new ahole
EH, we have a couple of VERY big whales.
Bet they've taken all the spots in the jf event too
Nope
They are saving thier spends for Picard
Noone is seriously chasing jellyfish on our server atm.
They'll only get screwed over on picard
I will slowly get mine from terrority 🐌🦥🐌
Spent over 15k uc only to find all the whales are on the lb
One of the main reasons I get the bp is for the extra g4 common...
It's pretty hard to come by and expensive
not hard if you scrap lvl 26 ships...
granted 52k I know isn't a ton, but I'm ops 35
Scrapping one ship uses quite bit of g3 which sets you back in other places
Especially with this shuttle bay that has crazy ore needs
You're right,but unless you're buying packs you probably don't have a lot of extra g3 to burn
buying mat in packs is insane to me, but I've scrapped 2 t8 lvl 26 ships thus car, a mayflower and a legionary. This is letting me f2p the primes that aren't gated right now, and I can save those commons for the future.
Unless they decide to screw you undoubtedly in the future
Lort y’all still going on
At what point do their “mistakes” become fraud?
When a court agrees with you
What is everyone’s “beam leaderboard? Our is 175m
ops 33 36m
ops38 37.9m is 1st, 6th is 31.6m
And all appeals are exhausted
so far arc 2 sucks when it comes to rewards
arc 1 was decent but arc2 so far horrible
Yeah where's the actual events? Lol. This this arc has just been full of leaderboards so far, which are pointless when most people choose to live their lives rather than grind for days on end 😅 Last arc was awesome in terms of profit. This one just seems lazy.
Also, does anyone else feel like they've actually lowered the spawn rate of rare armadas, rather than increased them?
35 rares can still be hard to find up, if it's improved, it's not enough
glad i'm not the only one who has received that message.
got the same reply from support last time it was mucked up
Absolutely unacceptable
there are two 49's in the leaderboard on s157
The ops 43+ have dominated the event, and are like,I already have 5 I could build
@loud solar can you do a blog about how ridiculous they are being with yet another jellyfish event mess up.
rewards suck this arc when it comes to raiding @loud solar no phat bases to find
Raiding isn’t worth it anymore, game just about crashes
i can raid reasonably well without crashes, you must be using ios fail
Also raiding with 30 people too
move to android you will be pleasantly surprised at how much more stable it is than ios,,, usa gov keep messing with your game on ios lol
i laugh at apples new add about "mind your own business" lol cia definitely mind your own business on ios

#ApplePrivacy
Welcome to the official Apple YouTube channel. Here you’ll find news about product launches, ...
ever search or even talk about stuff you would not normally talk or look at? your phone records you and within days you get hit with targetted adverts
i spoke to my dad on the phone briefly about buying a house 2 days ago now im being bombarded with adverts about house sales (and didnt even look at houses for sale at that point) your phone is recording you and still targetting you with adverts
You do know that iOS and apple have much stronger privacy and security than android? So much so that the Us gov is always trying to get apple to unbreak it’s phones for them?
They’re literally known for security.
us gov has access, most govs have access to both android and ios. they have legislation in place for it - refuse? no licences or ip rights
Yes but apple makes it far harder
no they dont
So how then does that make android more stable ? Lol
Weird logic
A simple google search would prove they do lol
no i meant STFC game on android is more stable than on ios
I can’t really speak to that. I see problems on both platforms.
most complaints about game stability comes from apple players
I’m on iOS and it’s ok for the most part besides an occasionally graphic glitch.
i rarely have issues on android apart from desync when opening chests but then thats a server lag issue rather than platform issue
It’s dangerous to generalise based from only a few experiences tho. Ohly scopely would know the more stable platform
usually it gets bad when scopley hand out free stuff
Honestly I think they’re both 99% fine
Yeah but that’s server again not the platform lol
So... Survival of the Fittest event ... I finished that mission chain yesterday but nothing is showing on the event milestones today.
I reported this to customer support.
Apple merely hides it better. There is no reasonable expectation of privacy on an electronic device.
Soooo .. does anyone have this?
not released yet
That emblem looks badass ! Want 😄
I am curious, is there already, or a plan to introduce an event to source uss terror shards? Im a few short but, have yet to see a way to get the remaining.
I am more curious for a compensation for the Borken jelly Event...
Theres already another running of the event next week as compensation
Funny
If you meant used mats…oh well
The thing is the ISS Jelly Event runs nearly every Week..... People who invest in the first 2 hours everything they have in this event, its her own fault. Sry but if you wanna win a Event you need to look if someone bigger go all in.... think about it! If you go all in to early you give other People the chance to get her Credit Card and beat you....... Play dirty and invest in the last 10 minutes.... Dont give them the Chance to beat you..... And if you see anyone else made more Points then you can do, save the ressources and wait for the next event.... Play smart!
i think at the End of the TNG Arc Series we get a Event Store and there will be the Skins..... Dont think the Events will come back next time. maybe in a filler arc after TNG Series.
Usually with ressources for three Million Points U score 3rd or 4th on our Server, so Stop saying its the Players fault when they started scoring in an Event. It is Not. It is scopelys fault for screwing Up the Event.
yes, absolutely right
and you need time and speed ups to score 3 million points … I‘m in the same shitty situation … noticed it After 2 hours what was going on and by then it was too late … And it makes no sense to continue investing because the scoring is already through the roof …
„the whales rules the leaderboard“
it will take me months to collect the resources again
compensation is another jelly event next week
You seem a little dumb in the fact with the jellyfish event the big whales shouldn't have been able to participate at all as they already have the jellyfish. So you don't need to check it normally at least not for the big fish. The reason people are pissed is that literally everyone lvl 39 - 50 even if they already had a jellyfish could compete which defeats the entire purpose of the event.
@untold wedge it's just victim blaming. The rules for the jelly event state that if you already have one you can't participate again. You shouldn't have to troll discord and wait to spend your mats "just in case scopely did another scopely"
Im pretty Sure compensation has an Other meaning then Just Putting Up the same Event again... While Not ensuring people get Something for their losses 🤔
Oh I agree especially with the fact the event actually states you can only compete once which should in my eyes mean that those that competed should get the mats spent back
Especially given the fact that this is the 2nd time in the last month or two that this has happened. Once is an unfortunate error, twice is just not being bothered to fix it, despite knowing the impact it has on players.
it happened with the new apex event recently, too.
at least they didn't archive the previous winners instead of excluding them, I guess....
Blaming players is a bit of an idiotic way to look at it.
Especially when U are one of them...
I'm in the same boat mate, and like you said, prepping for this event takes literally months and cash.
I'm livid
I feel that Scopely’s customer support model is abusive. I don’t get how these companies get away with this when they can literally walk into almost any Starbucks, Chik Fil A, Target, etc and learn how customer support is done properly in an afternoon.
Prob is U cant Walk Into their buro and they are getting through with it
I'm assuming there is a lot of psychology dealing with indoctrination and feeling left out at play. Players pay in, and get invested. That creates a feedback loop along with the competition and "keeping up"... for a time, and for certain types of personalities.
Couple that weith every other known loot box feedback loops creates a toxic brew for many.
I think I agree wholeheartedly. Robert Cialdini often talks about shared suffering as tactic useful in persuading a group of people to become more agreeable, aka spending money. (His book “Influence” has likely either been directly or indirectly involved in the business model.)
You know, I came over here from Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes/BF2 and I thought EA/CG had terrible customer service and a super aggressive monetization scheme, but I think EA could learn something from Scopely in this department.
One of these things is not like the other .. <@&509691205798592532>
Something went wrong withsepsratist attack
Lol
This strength in numbers event is trash... it comes right after the Wesley event, so those who won that even have a MASSIVE head start.. horrible design
Oh great.. ANOTHER crap ladder event. Guess I’ll start working on bathroom renovations instead
how many events are they going to mess up?
Its obviously meant to be g3x18 unc and g3x5 rare
<@&509690795536941056>
Sweet! I CANT WAIT TO WIN 2 star MATERIALS!
Have you tried using a Prism?
You dont have the Epic Shards unlocked you have to have that first
does anyone bother to proof read these things?
Was about to come on and say the same, think they meant 16 3unc and 4 3 rare
Just so I understand, as I’m not seeing another event, there’s no other way to get the refractive beam at this point?
I unlocked ionic 1st. Then when I went to refractive I was stoopid looking 😂
So mining event doesn’t include data or lat mining?
I blame whisky
Guess I’ll wait a year 
Was that the only event for refractive?
Would almost make sense to let us buy the other half of the shards. Seems the rewards would have been better at 1-3 full unlock and that’s it.
Nah. Not those. I have 88/75 there. 53/75 of the others.
We got those from the tos arc
Anybody else noticing the ticket events are all weird? Why does one award 2* mats?
What's their excuse this time?
What he said
Hey, can’t seem to find it, whats the official word on the missing armada event? Coming later or not at all?
Hasbeen postponed to a later date I belive
Shouldn't there be a cosmic cleanup event? I'm at 81/90 BP for the franklin and I want to build it ;)
Y’all... A Picard shard is easily worth the difference... give them a break... #scopelyLogic
If you aren’t careful they’ll give you more away team refreshes.
I have the same crap in my rewards too.
Why does not appear event calendar when game is loaded?
Obviously we're expecting too much of Scopely smh
It’s tiring to see slbs since the beginning of the arc .. it seems scopley has high expectations that players would go crazy for Picard..
What has happened to cosmic cleanup, we are told its dosent run between the arcs and now we are in one it is cancelled again.I should have been able to grind my vidar by now but for the cancellations. Seriously thinking 9f leaving the game.
it wasn't canceled, just wasn't scheduled for this arc part
2.5 hours in and I still can’t get additional tickets. Rebooted, cleared local, even reinstalled on 2 devices. iOS.
Ticket logged.
Yes I got the free ones
What I find funny and appalling at the same time is that they removed their official announcement from the page identifying their mess up and unwillingness to correct it......Fortunately, I screen shotted the post before it got deleted and send along with my complaint to scopely.......
Will we have rare ticket events this arc? Just wondering if I should save these tickets
Do you know if the Refractive Beam event will be repeated?
So another unclear, garbage event. The refraction beam event made it look like you got the ionic shards AND the refractive beam. But no... You go and unlock the ionic and then you can't unlock the refraction beam. Thanks Scopley yet again.
Same pinch.
We can't penetrate now. We die virgins 😂
I wondered why I didn't get both.
Definitely looks like 2 prizes as well.
I got both. Epic 75 and refractive 75. But i unlocked ionic 1st.
Why do we even need 75 epic shards + 75 refractive shards to unlock it...
I unlocked the rainbow one first myself
I did the other one.
Was 4 drinks down. Did 3 more drinks to gulp what I did 😂
Well rainbow beam in 4 months then
I opened a ticket regarding it. I am certain nothing will be done per their epic support but it will give me one more reason to not be able to tolerate them and their incompetence.
I feel miserable right now
I opened a ticket re jelly event. I scored 2m points before they said it was broken event.
Unhappy is an understatement
But do you know if the Refractive Beam event will be repeated?
Because I spent a lot of rss.. 😅😅
where are the elite separatist bosses please?
refractive beam is not scheduled for another run, so don't expect additional shards until they release their refit solution
they updated the combat training event rewards, but are they giving chests to those that finished the event before they updated it?
separatist bosses are in the 26 system of the separatist branch (located in early faction space as a 17-*-22-26 cluster)
separatist 💀 = seperatist boss
who plays games and doesn't know what the skull means at end of a name
Because that’s the cost of it, why did you buy the ionic and then not the refractive if the refractive was what you were after that’s a bit silly really
throw them out the airlock!
Asap go to store to get tickets! 😄
because I dont' conform to the dickwad alliances owning territories
atleast I know my strength is my own
You can visit some alliances with particles 😏
particles are not a problem, you are only 3.2m from territory buffs
without them you wouldn't be so confident
well quantum is a problem
join team, benefit from team
Actually in my alliance's territory are not hull buffs services
my weapons techs are lvl 7
I have some surax still from couple forced takeovers in small systems
dont' need a hull buff
even a penetration buff will jump you over 200k
Also T7
Doesnt matter what the buff is though, power is misleading
Ive one shot 4.5m ent same crew
Buff are misleading
Now leave your alliance and see what its actual strength is
Territory buffs are actually x 0,3 = real buff, so not much 10% maybe
alliance buffs are part of my strength. I formed those social connections, and helped in team efforts
No effort when you have 10 other alliances sit in system locking them out
your server politics sound interesting
1 coalition decides who gets what territories
build a 2nd power bloc
Its everywhere
Small alliances have formed with only 1 goal in mind, to keep them from mining in any of their territories
Whales take best
Well mining anywhere really
we used to have coalitions too, but then everyone voted on enshrining rules in roe that only allowed alliances who've joined takeovers to participate
perhaps you could champion that cause on your server's discord
the coalition is enough that no one will go against them
we have debated against them time and time again that only those involved in takeover should be allowed
but if they lock out a system with ships you can't do anything anyways
power or not
there's no way 10 alliances are so like-minded that they agree with every allocated territory
people want, and that wanting can break a coalition
how is it you got excluded? are you blacklisted?
no we just don't agree with their gameplay
nobody wants to put in a fulltime job in defending every territory
On our server maybe 1 takeover fight in month or even less
Just nobody want feed scopely
Sounds like you should join one of those alliances instead of the bad one you are in
did you not just read what I said
I do not want to commit a full time job to defending everyone else territories
not to mention some of the whales in those alliances are real pieces of 💩
But….if all the big alliances are defending each other how much defending do you have to do?
enough to lock systems
and when its dozens of territories there are multiple defenses per day and its everyday
even with T2 and T3 systems they will make you show knowing full well no one can take it
particles and buffs are not worth that headache
doesn't make sense why scopely doesn't implement a fix, people would actually start spite spending again to win a territory
way it is now, no one is spending
Well I’m sorry your server sucks, or you suck, hard to tell. But we found a nice homeostasis where the top 4 alliances have all 3 particles and the next 4-5 found their spot around those guys
the top 5 alliances are the coalition with their sub-tags barely being top 25 but yet they get the scraps that they could not get otherwise
there are 10 territories that could be won by those in top 10 outside coalition without any trouble, but they can't because of the sheer number of ships they load into systems making takeovers impossible with lockouts
It sounds like you guys need to work it out. It’s obviously a failure of diplomacy. Everyone else thinks it’s working fine
its a pure waste is what it is
offer them safe miners in exchange for a seat and no defending
half the t1/2 territories services are rarely activated because the sub alliances are low activity and cant' afford to activate
but big brothers says no its theirs
I think territory should work by another way: Everyone shuold have ability to relocate in any system except during takeover, ofc without shielding and mining ability, just to get raiding back in game
they can say a lot of things, but safe miners are your offer to give
if they decline, you hit them harder
they have been dealing with a dozen players hitting their miners everywhere they dont' care anymore
hit their armadas too
and this has been going on for a long time, they just adapted
they hit their arms and their ships doing dailies
doesn't stop them
that just sounds like you're not hitting hard enough
those dozen players have been blacklisted by most of the server for it too
very often you see cords posted for them trying to mine or do dailies or even arms
and then you see dozens of ships warp in with discos
that's fine, strain their resources for little effort
talking 1000 players vs a dozen
keep at it, forever until they break
and its been going on for long ass time its just part of normal daily routine now
there's no way people want to play like that when a reasonable solution is offered
its what they decided
those players will never get to play the game normally again
and they will let their miners get destroyed for it
if they lose a mining node during an event it gets handed back to them if someone takes it over
it sounds like they broke you
there is no hit them harder when these people only log in for that exact reason
they can't play the game they have nothing else to do
didn't break me I'm not part of that foolish group
you've given up mentally though. Resolve is needed to break them
I'd rather still be able to play the game then deal with a bunch of whales and their groupies
Because it is not readily apparent that you need two types of shards for the refractive unless you open it first and see it you would just assume you need the specific type shards only same as the other ones no?
the other special ones with buffs require two types also. You can try asking if CS will refund it for you
I think you got the 2&3 mixed. 2.3 is what it should be at tier 4
That depends on research, ops level, and the strength of the officers on your ship
Then your research is way higher due to high OPS level 😉
ops 39 is limited to lvl 7 territory techs
need higher astronautics studio for the higher level techs
I'm more curious how he killed a lvl 49 Transport with a lvl 20 Enterprise and lived....
And level 20 enterprise doesn’t mean it’s t4. It could be t7 and only at level 20
I just tiered mine up today to t5 level 25 at ops 35 with a majority of research done and I’m at 2.7
that wasn't his first run
look at health and shield
was his 3rd run looking at his health and shield loss
100 round limit
and you can do that with any 2.5m epic, 3 runs to kill a 49
if you want you can do it with 1.5m ship as well, just keep summoning it back after repair
I can kill 49s with level 20 enterprise. Takes 3 hits. I can kill 2 before I die.. it’s research. My level 20 enterprise is also over 3m. It is t4
so let me get this right when you attack it the first time neither you or it die? then you hit it 2 more times like that? and you can kill a total of 2 before the Enterprise completely dies?
Yes
Is that your Crew for Killing 49?
No pmc for 49 transports. Only normal. I can’t kill heavies
Nvm takes me two times now since additional research
I can’t kill even one with PMT
I cant kill even one with any crew, but i Score more Points during si vis pacem...
Someone else was telling me that. It’s a good trick if you can’t kill one
Yeah its Like 5 or 6 Times the points
use a burn crew on the heavies
just need any ship that can survive 1 round
but thats only for Si Vis Pacem Para Bellum
I use this for Si Vis. 1 hit and the event is done.
Save fighting 30 other people for the normals.
Even before I tiered it, burn was less effective for points scoring than leslie, moreau, kirk.
most people don't have leslie
I got him long ass time ago because I wanted hadley
but his maneuver is just crap and only changes timer not actual warp time
I got the pack more for the fact the officer boost ship xp earned. Handy when you have have conveyor belt of 26 ships to max and scrap.
This is all that I needed to complete para bellum 😆
The heavies are actually 50 points per hull vs 1 for the standards.
yep why you can underdog it with a cheap common g3 using burn
That was actually the first time that I've got it in 1 hit too, usually I only get most of it. I do run 270/270/270 with Kirk captain to squeeze a little bit more out of it though.
Leslie scoring is amazing in certain areas. You have to be able to go enough rounds. If you accumulate damage too quickly and die quick he doesn’t work. But for the situations he does he is untouchable
So I see they give 8k points to promote Picard in this event but it is mathematically impossible to even unlock him at this point….am I missing something?
scopely magic
No cosmic cleanup? Still waiting on my final 2 sarcophagus prints.
@graceful shard this event will run again. I believe the second running of the event will have been after 1, maybe both picard auctions. which means if someone wins both, they could promote hime
or possibly win every event he will come out in, like make it so and win the auction. plausible but unlikely
I didn't know that. Is it true for all damage events?
No, most damage events have their own details on what gives extra points, para bellum just happens to give 50x for heavies (and makes it very easy to complete).
Super, thanks. I'm not high enough level yet to see the event, but it's good to know things ahead of time!
Aah, I should have figured when you weren't sure on the bonus 😅
It's a great event, my only regret in hitting 39 was that I didn't do it sooner just for this event 😂
so i shouldnt wait for an event to go from 38 to 39?
How to know , which dail event will happen next , in a few hours?
Up to you at the end of the day, maybe if you're doing a nice leaderboard. But these para bellum events are pretty nice imo, the 17k lat alone is decent.
hi, am I missing something or are there no more separatist bosses?
still there, no longer have that in their name
and the points acquired are no longer the same, it seems to me in the 550pts
the ticket event is different than the separatist event
and bonus points won't show up in toast bar
you only see initial points, but you gain the bonus still
Does anyone have a link to a site that tracks the 6/12 hour events? I had a site that was pretty good about it but ever since daylight savings time it is completely broken.
Thank you
think you even needed kirk spock? how often did the shields fail
IDK, just tried once, next time in parabellum event will try your setup
R u sure that no need obliterator (burning), i am thinking to set someone for burning
