Stranger for me not count points in all events in last 2 hours

About a half hour delay maybe full hour on 28, but who knows if it’s correct

Here's a crazy idea. Stop spending money in game till they fix it.

Hey all, we are aware of the issues players are having with scoring delays right now. We're experiencing some server load issues we've been actively working on.

copper flicker
#

you have been experiencing server issues for 2 and half years

then why not make a fkin announcement

i don't see discord randomly disconnecting or not working 1 to 5 times a week for 2 years, so please, come up with another viable excuse for this snafu

I had 75 of the BP for the Enterprise and now I have less than forty

#

WTH

#

Whatever issue that is causing the scoring problems may appear to be affecting other Scopely games. I say this because I have another Scopely game on my iPad (Looney Tunes: World Of Mayhem), and I just got a Discord notification that the developers for that game are aware of the issues that the LTWOM game currently experiencing right now. So I don't think that it's a coincidence that both games appear to be concurrently experiencing issues.

I seriously have to question all of our intelligence levels when we continue to play this poorly coded pile of 💩 that most companies wouldn’t even release for beta.

Wow with how much they charge for add ons to this game no excuse for this.

@lime raft at one point, the dailies and events were counting but with a delay and now it’s just not counting

Become a weatherman!

hearty cairn
#

You can still do dailies and events. The points are counting. Just super delayed in getting them.

#

Figure at least a 20-30 minuet delay.

Getting points afterwards with such a big delay is simply not good enough.
I have no if I did 2 3 or 4 milestonesin the faction hunts!
When to stop??
Popping a 12hs shield and will be looking for a full 3x Faction Hunt "I'm sorry package" tomorrow

How are we supposed to do events like this

haughty grotto
#

Did the second set of “Great Escape” missions. 15 minutes later, now, and I’m not getting event credit for doing them.

pale kestrel
#

well taht explains why i only got the milestone 12 from battle pass free section and not the milestone 13 for it but got the elite rewards for 12 and 13

#

so my ore and parsteel is floatingout in space somewhere

#

bad enough they removed the ship tiering for points... not enough time for me to get all three factions done like i wanted seeing as i am working 12 hours of the first part of the event. grrr

fresh peak
#

Still working on the servers on our end - they will catch up hopefully soon

plush rivet
#

Yea about those servers.....

pale kestrel
#

yeah, it's about a 30 minute delay for sure

glass schooner
#

Slight delay I'm waiting 40 to 60 minutes to see my point on dailies and events (my daily will not get completed today)

fresh peak
#

servers are starting to catch up now but yep - the queue is long

summer zephyr
#

Approximately an hour for me give or take. For a hot minute it was real time then (poof) delayed again.

red echo
#

I propose, and i don’t think i’m alone here, a Server Ex Comp that makes the game have no glitches for 1 hour?

#

#ScoplysGreed

fresh peak
#

should be better now?

pale kestrel
#

it took my money quickly so let's test the points registering

#

yes, working now

tardy ether
#

So I haven’t received any scoring updates despite killing many dozens of hostiles in well over an hour. When is this delay expected to be fixed. It’s impossible like this

#

I’ve reset the game, still no updates yet so many report it working in real time

fresh peak
#

It should have caught up or close to catching up. If it still doesn't in the next hour or so then you can file a support ticket and they will help you specifically.

The lag issue is only getting worse at a time when sever traffic is lower due to the time. Bets on how long before scopely takes the servers down for “emergency” maintenance?

@fresh peak not sure if you are still awake but ib my experience in last hour, lag in scoring points is gone now thanks, still slightly delayed for dailies but nothing serious

Can we make the jelly event weekly or something. This is getting ridiculous

I’ve completed my hostile hunt and collected the points, but I’m no farther along on the milestone points than I was last night after finishing unity. Today’s event would’ve gotten me to milestone 14 and close to milestone 15.

You can do ore or parsteel nothing else.. hope this answers this queation

Will we get another Cosmic Cleanup this month? pls OH_pepePleading

dire veldt
woven lily
#

You guys are terrible. It was up for days on multiple areas and now it's suddenly moved because it coincides with the regular officer shard SLB. The community isn't dumb. Every little bit of this generates more bad will and it will add up.

#

It's there plainly in the events info channel on a picture calendar it wasn't wrongly entered at a single location.

void hound
#

80% bonus mining on Airam but

#

How this is making sense?

woven lily
void hound
#

Nope it doesn't

meager spindle
#

You have to start from base stats. Learn Scopely math, then you’ll understand :/

small surge
#

Base mining 100%, level 10 Meridian bonus 2,225% total 2,325%, adding Airiam 80%, new total 2405%. Mining without Airiam 387,113, with Airiam expected 387,113/2325*2405=400,433

lost abyss
#

This is why we need to keep pushing Scopely to move to a more normal version of MMO stat and buff readouts. Don’t tell us a number that we have to then go do a bunch of math over, make that something handled by the server side and just show us the realistic buff or negation percentages or numbers.

twin karma
#

Anyone else having a issue with the face the enemy event not posting points?

robust vapor
twin karma
#

Crappy connection when I asked. Now understand it ore not generally mining

robust vapor
#

*mostly.
Every month I reckon someone asks where it is. I believe advice is only during the battlepasses.

ornate geyser
# void hound Nope it doesn't

Yes, it does. If you're mining with a ship that already adds 2000% improvement, adding another 80% is basically a meaningless.

Virtually all buffs on the game work the same way, and always have.

covert arch
void hound
#

Is like you say you sell bananas, while you actually sell potatoes, a totally different thing

late plover
#

Everything in the game works this way... base value is 100% and bonuses are applied to that

robust vapor
#

Probably because most stores don't have stacking price variations..

desert laurel
#

it's not that misleading, people just think about it weirdly. When they sell you +20% more bananas, they aren't giving you 20% more of all the bananas you own. They're offering you a fifth of a banana to add to your banana bunch

robust vapor
#

Stores aren't a good analogy..

fathom shuttle
#

What would be nice though would be the possibility to "zoom in" on any of the attributes of your ship and then see exactly keyed down what is the base value and all the different boni that go on top. That way these discussions would maybe happen a bit less frequent.

robust vapor
#

I wouldn't 😮

thick raptor
#

What kind of events should I save recruit tokens for?

desert laurel
#

in 3h there'll be regular recruit slb that you can use them on, or you can save for the tng slb that runs 13-16th. If you can be competitive in these slbs it's a decent use of your excess tokens, but the standard recruit events and heroic versions tend to have better cost/reward efficiency and I never skip those

woven lily
#

The more I think of it, the more it annoys me. Originally we had a troi spend event that didn't co-incide with the TNG recruit event. Now, the Troi spend event lies within the TNG event, this is really bushit, as we always look at the calendar and plan how we want to deploy our resource and efforts. This changes everything.

This changes the entire dynamics of competing in such an event. Because now its turned the TNG recruit event into a p2w event squared when prior it was something f2p players could participate in hope of some form of competitiveness.

ornate geyser
#

I completely agree it would be great for the game to tell you what the actual impact would be.

The counter argument is we need to do researches etc anyway, regardless of impact, to level up Ops. So it kinda doesn't matter, it is what it is.

There used to be a ship power calculator spreadsheet that did this. Playing with it was...eye opening.

plucky roost
#

I call for the immediate firing of whoever came up with the realta event and those that agreed that it was a good idea.

hearty cairn
#

Or just have them insert points for participating. Idc about losing, but not even being able to compete is no fun. Grinding 1 point up to (at 55) 54 points for pve is not fun.

#

The other pvp event involving the Jellyfish had points gained for losing. That was fun. This only has for winning.

glossy quiver
#

I’m not getting any points for the realta v realta. Scopely needs to stop collecting people’s money for game that doesn’t work. They need to fix ALL glitches first.

#

Are you doing the PvP in the right system @glossy quiver ?
Only PVE is unlimited.

glossy quiver
#

Yes, correct system. Done over 30 ship kills, reds, and still no points.

#

Pve should work in any system. Did you close app and clear cache, then reboot?

glossy quiver
#

Last time, hit reds in neighboring system to get points with no issues.

#

Closed app more than once.

#

So I just talked with 1 of my alliance's Low lvl players 14 and he doesn't have the Realta vs Realta event. So becuase he can't be food for the LvL 40+ players he can't do the event ??

Why complain about an event that takes 20 minutes or so to complete.

glossy quiver
#

Fixed now. Thanks.

plucky roost
# novel hollow You just like fired 97% of the player base. Weird.

I think you got your numbers wrong. Might have meant to hit the 1 for 17% but you are absolutely right. What’s the point of complaining about a event that takes 20 minutes whether or not it is challenging or fun. I take back my firing and ask for more monotonous events to be added to the game. Maybe the next event we can do battle fortunates or mine with a warship. Explorer for gas, battleship for ore, interceptor for crystal. May take more than 20mins but damn it would be fun right?

This is the most even way to pvp not really sure what else to say.

I was originally excited about the realta battles. To see what crew would work or who did better. But lost all interest when it's 22k vs 36k+ no chance of winning, so nothing exciting. Just get to go grind 54 hostiles. If you got points for losing it would at least be worth the time to try.

ornate geyser
#

It keeps coming back to that. For a game with loose level banding, like this one, you'll never get pvp action going until you over-reward people for losing.

just for stfc ....your realta event sucks . fyi I don't do the PvP part cause at lv 34 I get hit by lv 50. which means I'd never score. so hostiles only.. but really if you going to continue realta event it needs have warp40. so you can go most places with out sacrificing all other events and disco warps to even try.

too many running ToS kirk with ToS bones and Marcus that it all comes down to whether or not Kirk will proc

He wants to prove the 1 or of 100 to seem cool. Idk he's also 26k, so it would be him against 40k to be the equivalent.

#

Maybe, not too sure if pike actually increases Ro’s chance of proc, it depends weather her ability is classed as a combat proc. Some say yes, some say not, in theory with pike Moreau, she should proc every time.

#

But ro on a side side is a good card when she procs. I’ve been using 5,ro,Marcus and killing tos crewed realtas

#

tos crewed without marcus probably )

strong zephyr

I have tested P M Ro and didnt proc every time, but my Ro is tier 2

so 30%+30%*60%=48%?

It depends what rank your Ro is.

or wait i forgot its doubled )

but at tier 5 she gets over 100% with PM, does that break the probability?

30%*2.2=66%

Like yea when ro doesn’t proc you die, but still for a realta it really doesn’t matter it’s basically a nothing cost to repair 😂

You are the scoply level of community support. I started out listing my issues and you post not the equivalent to prove a nonexistent point. Congrats you have more power and are fighting people closer to your levels. I'm not at that point since I'm 22k. Don't bother responding I'm blocking you since I don't fee l like being told my opinion and experience is wrong. Because I'm not stronger.

Wow popped an Armada to get a bunch of points at the start. Then hostile hunt starts late. WTH

Scopely again just don’t care

knotty niche

Let's see if I understand it scopely the other day you have a database screw up that slows the progress down right before reset so many of us don't know if we completed things and today you start the BP event an hour late so that all the kills that we've done don't count and no compensation

Anyone else's BP not scoring any points for armadas?

#

Does the Troi SLB also count Eclipse rare and epic armadas? Or just F/K/R armadas?

worldly shore
#

Rare or epic "regular" armadas including neutral faction (eg in Azati), anything which requires spending normal armada directives but not eclipse, doomsday etc

empty condor

Thx!

So I still have these mission keys. When the event store comes around it doesn't let you get missions with existing mission keys. I'd really like to complete these lol.

vagrant juniper
#

It's the chain where they made the first part give you the missing 5 keys to get the next set of missions. At the time I couldn't complete the first mission chain.

uneven peak
#

I had the same problem. I couldn't complete one of the missions until after the BP finished, so I was left with the keys and no way to get the next mission. So the keys sit there. Forever. Taunting me.

desert laurel
#

doubt those missions are coming back to the event store. Try contacting CS and see if they'll exchange them for the missions, otherwise, you're probably holding them forever

uneven peak
#

That's a good idea. I'll give it a go. Thanks 👍

Wasn't this supposed to finish today ?

desert laurel

nope, tomorrow. Gives us time to cash in the troi auction for pts

Strange, I had 13 to 16 in mind. And seing that 5 people tried to snipe just before event change it looks like I wasn't the only one mistaken 😄

it is 13-16th, today's events ends tomorrow

Sure..... Let's have an Eclipse Armada event and let's only have 1 Epic 33 in the entire game. that sounds logical. Oh, and let's only have it spawn every 30-40 minutes or so. Shouldn't be a problem for the 40+ alliances on the server. Not a problem at all. (s)

#

epic 31 doesn't exist

ornate geyser

Stella cleared that super quick just killing hostiles. No armadas needed.

Having said that, they still need to add more Epic 33s and fix the ridiculous respawn rate.

ornate geyser
#

I'm 35, Stella is lvl 25 M11, my SMS cleared in less than 2 hulls in Peckinpah. Super fast. Is it harder at other ops levels?

dapper drum
#

even if you are helping your alliance mates out

#

wont' make a difference armada or hostile if they can't do the damage

#

so you aren't helping them in anyway doing armadas

#

they are still going to do the same amount of damage per round

muted island
#

True, but you also get armada credits that help for other stuff as well. All this still doesn't take away from the fact these armadas are not respawning fast enough and there aren't enough of them.

dapper drum
#

they respawn every 15 to 30 mins

#

normally always less than 20 mins

#

I can get in 5 or 6 epics an hour doing delta and karpinnen

bitter snow
#

It's also not an armada event... no way am I getting 250m ish points for the SMS just on armada victories 🤣

dapper drum
#

beat 9 epics

#

or just kill 20 lvl 40's

bitter snow
#

ah, that's not so bad

#

missed a zero when I looked last... but yeah, hostiles were a lot faster

dapper drum
#

drastically faster

#

its 30m to kill 1 epic

#

you can get that in 3 lvl 39 kills

bitter snow
#

Assuming you get to it before the other people on the server, too

#

Lindstrom and Pneumbra are the only ones not permacamped during events 🙂

dapper drum
#

both are lit up on my server

but they spawn fast enough

#

penumbra has people flying around with more than 1 stella trying to snipe as many kills as possible

Anyone else getting the building event instead of the research event for icarus factor? I was sure this was supposed to be research this time around.

Yuck, calendar says research, plus nothing has repeated in Icarus.

alpine snow
#

It's not like you gave us a calendar scopley 🙄

pseudo rover
#

Research was intended to be for today but has been swapped with Building for Thursday. So on Thursday, the research event will run.

solar fog
#

Garbage. Was supposed to be research not building station.

south berry
#

So 4 days of events, not 3?

alpine snow
#

Yup, and to not tell anyone is ridiculous. People have to plan for this stuff ahead of time. No excuse to not inform anyone

rich coral
#

You know, some communication beforehand would go a long way to improving the opinion people have of Scopely.

#

So this event is pretty much uncompletable today then... yay

floral coral

Wait…research as part of icarus on Thursday? Cause there is only supposed to be 3 days and 3rd is supposed to be borg probes.

There is no Thursday event in iCarus. Tomorrow is borg probes.

Uh oh...now what moderators

the only builds i can upgrade require a lot of uc & par which i dont have

Day 1: eclipse. Day 2: complete research Day 3: Borg probes.

So now where is the research going?

Day 4 created by the moderators it seems

day 4 has been known about for a while

since so many complained about the first run having no event on the 4th day

Second incurs event is wrong. This time around it should be resech not station upgrade

wanton cloud
#

and left it til last minute so they couldn't complete their AMS

#

but as usual, scopely is incapable of communicating changes

pseudo rover
#

There will be a Day 4 SMS to give more players chances to complete the AMS, which was supposed to be Upgrade Uproar.
Instead that got scheduled to today and as such, Research will go on Day 4 instead.

@pseudo rover that’s not what I’m talking about

So I’ve prepped research for tonight and no buildings. All speeds used on research and event changes without notice is poor

It should've been research but has become building. So on the 4th day, where it was meant to be building, it'll be research.

The lack of communication is embarrassing. Not the mods fault… but the in game message said research, so to swap it without a word is not good enough

marsh flame
#

Totally not you’re fault. But as the messenger. You can send the message back. It’s a pisspoor thing to do. “Day 2 research event”. Okay il get researches ready. Scopely: “psych. Just kidding. Have a station event”

At least you have buildings you can speed up xD

Because their QA doesnt exist xD

marsh flame

Others have said they want more communication. To be honest. If this is the quality of the communication. Less would be preferable. Being incorrect at every step. Makes it useless information.

Had scopely NOT posted a calendar (that they’ve edited at every step of the way and has been consistently wrong). I’d actually be in a better position

#

Wrong communication. Is worse than NO communication

wanton cloud
#

they update the calendar all the time, no reason they couldn't update it this time

south berry
#

I'm still curious how people knew there was even a fourth day. I must have missed the in game announcement and change to the schedule board

floral coral
#

It’s obvious they don’t even play their own game. I have to wait to scrap a mayflower to do my next base defence cannon, something I cannot speed up, or buy a pack or waste 4* exocomps to complete an event which feeds both into an AMS and ALB event

wanton cloud
#

just laziness

#

they silently release updates to the in-game news about the schedule

marsh flame
#

They’ve also updated it. AFTER the changes they made come into effect. That’s also useless. Editing the calendar to reflect what happened (or didn’t) yesterday is also of no use

wanton cloud
#

they also lack any sort of QA, this probably wasn't the intent and simply lack of QA

#

but it's so irritating how often they do this crap, have someone spend 30 minutes every day to make sure the correct events are on the schedule, is it really so hard?

steep heart
#

Like giving out a realta event without realising that a lot of people didnt have one

alpine snow

Told after an event was supposed to happen. That it won’t. And will instead be delayed? Which has happened today. And last week.

The calendar can change. Sure. Absolutely fine. But it needs to do so BEFORE the date you’re changing

I'm still miffed about this some people having 2 realtas thing...

Plus we haven't discussed that even if today building event was the actual plan ( I smell more of a we screwed up vibe and are pretending it was planned), why did they pick the 1 event from the last run that everyone hated? That seems like a big f u to the whole community

Around the time I pinned the last message in the channel iirc, but your experience may vary as it can take some time to update for everyone

#

And besides……after the fact is NOT great communication. Everyone was ready for research and then after the reset, oh, gee, it’s been changed to buildings.

So the new PC version will just be the same game, with same accounts? or are we going to see a better game, a more skill based game with pvp, combat, events etc...

There is a solution to that problem, it’s not Scopely’s fault that you refuse to use it.

robust vapor
#

The answer to that solution usually makes it undesirable, because Scopely built a game with wildly unbalanced PvP and made it so that you need to spend most of your time farming and mining 😴

sour plaza
#

@ornate geyser would but the S in our server name stands for snowflake and I cant be bothered blocking so many people

wind fog
#

So, the solution is to kill the other players? It’s not a pvp event

ornate geyser
#

The ROE you choose to play under is your issue, not Scopely's. The reality is the mess being shown in these ss are a consequence of ROE.

If you don't like it - fix it - this one's on you, not Scopely (although they certainly have many other things worthy of yelling at them for!)

sour plaza
#

@ornate geyser if we didn't form community based ROE the game would be a disaster

wind fog
#

Um, yeah, that’s not a viable solution for today’s event. I don’t care, I’m not even up to 33 yet, but what I’m hearing doesn’t sound reasonable.

sour plaza
#

"I need to mine for an event but all the mines are full" - "just kill all the miners and take a mine!" - we all know how that would play out so the suggestion to kill competition is equally moronic

ornate geyser
#

That's your choice.

Shrug.

sour plaza
#

@ornate geyser its a wise choice, killing the competition would be stupid. Since the only thing that kills probes is vidar and they'd just come back and kill you, or some else will and then boom no more transwarp cells and no more event. So no, it's not a viable solution.

ornate geyser
#

It's an event designed to get people blowing each other up. You don't want to blow each other up - that's cool - the alternative is queuing up at swarm points, or going down a couple of levels and grinding it out.

Whatever makes you happy! 😊

sour plaza
#

@ornate geyser you're not really grasping the point. If you did start blowing people up the same would happen to you and given that there is finite amount of transwarp cells you'd rapidly run out, and then you're definitely going to have a problem with the event.

ornate geyser
#

I'm grasping just fine. What you're not grasping is that there are only X number of slots on the leaderboard - they will be all be filled even if you all start nuking each other.

Guaranteed every reward spot will have someone in it, no matter how thoroughly you go at each other.

And the reality is, the SLB in either path will be dominated by the people with the most warp tokens. The only real difference is the blow-up path gets you there a hell of a lot quicker, with less grinding.

peak cairn
#

Scope isn’t going to make events that fit nicely with your ROE. If your roe keeps you from being competitive in an event, change it.

sour plaza
#

@ornate geyser Everyone has similar amount of tokens, if everyone just shot each other it would end up with the biggest player sitting G4 ships nailing every vidar in sight apart from their mates. So it wouldn't be a matter of tokens, it would be a matter of power.

ornate geyser
#

So instead it's a matter of who has the most free time on their hands. I fail to see how that's an improvement..

The bottom line is some events will favor certain groups. Don’t like that? Then come up with a plan to even the odds or just wait for the next event. The sooner people stop expecting every event to cater to them personally the sooner people will be able to stop stressing out so much about this silly fun inconsequential game.

i have gone free 2 play. i have factory at level 19, but i do have enough servos to punch it a level. well two levels after today's events. i'm waiting til a building event so i can claim the defense platform that's cooking. but i have.........

not as many as you

lol

tawny marsh
#

@nova valley rng has alot to do with it i went like a week straight pulling 16s

#

And double, triple away missions for chips

#

But getting halfway to max level of a building with special curreny f2p is good imo. More so that I was able to earn enough chips for another 1200ish servos over the next month.

That puts me at least in the low to mid 30s.

I grade the exocomp arc an A+ for accessibility and affordability.

B for utility due to the way buffs work off base.

And c for lack of imagination and creativity in the type of buffs!!

nova valley
#

i like these grades. very fair i think. although, the "base" value isn't a new thing, or unexpected. almost everything in the game works off of a base number. BUT increasing the buff "value" woulda been a compensation for that.

@nova valley well the base value is only a real issue of how they valued these

nova valley

others are meh

tawny marsh

If you do the conversion of the effect of the boost to Latinum it becomes very apparent they are undervalued

Like 500% ship xp, research and building speed. All can be mathed out to latinum. If you do that its more efficient to buy a latinum pack then these.

Yeah, as a free option im ok with it. But if they boosted the value so people would actually buy them so they would be better then just spending latinum we would all benefit

#

Its win/win/win for spenders,scopely and the community

#

Like lets put it perspective a 100% boost (tier 4 top tier pull)at my ops 41, is litteraly worth about 600-900 latinum. Yes this lasts 8 hours but thats off 40day builds.

#

It would be far better to be 250-300% for 15 minutes then 100% for 8 hours

They really need to either give us the base numbers alongside the buff percentages, a realistic buff/debuff number, go the usual MMO route and give us the actual increase numbers when all other things are included, or otherwise help simplify the convoluted and horrible numbers system in this game to where people don’t need spreadsheets and calculators to try and figure out what is really happening. It’s just getting silly when a 30% buff or debuffs actually results in a 1-2% actual difference in something.

#

Stfc design team is obviously being run by first timers copy and pasting from other games.

Yes all mmos use base % increases but they also add increases to base numbers so those % increases actually mean something at higher levels

Don’t disagree at all that I’d love some real interface for numbers display. Would make my job so much easier. BUT the ONLY problem with net results is that it would be diff for EVERYONE based on researches that they had ALREADY done. For example. 300% armada damage may be a 20% yield to a level 50 but potentially a 100% net yield to a level 20. It depends on research ALREADY done in most cases. That said, to assist players IN THE MEANTIME, please know you can find any and all base values from our friends at STFC.space

I can’t speak to many other games. BUT the two or three that I’ve played hard enough to care about the math is much like this. Cumulative percentage additive buffs to base. HOWEVER. Do keep ij mind there ARE. A FEW examples of base buff multipliers in this game. Just very very few. D’vor and Botany Bay are ones. Token systems or TC systems for mats mining is another. Laser bonus from your ship component is another. All around mining. Then in combat there’s some early shield and weapon damage research that’s flat additive to base. Also some of the flat additive research for Stella in the outlaw tree also affects base.

nova valley
#

Decrease in scale I mean. Ie. 1000 for levels 1-10. 100 for 20-30 etc

tawny marsh
#

Well those numbers i chose based as a being 20% of the base damage of the average weapon

#

As well not breaking the level balance using the realta as an example

#

Because 10,000 damage on a Kelvin sounds like alot but it really isn't

nova valley
#

The only problem with this function is them people would fuss that the exocomps “aren’t giving anything”. Someone who shoots 300k per shot and you offer a flat additive bonus of 400 to base. They’re not gonna get that math either. Lol it will be extremely convoluted either way. What scopley NEEDS to do is treat the new pc version as a real pc version and get us some detailed stats pages that show us our actual real numbers. And a “what if” scenario to upgrade a research or something. Doesn’t need to be incorporated into mobile. You can present it as a companion feature in pc. “Testing labs”

nova valley
tawny marsh
#

Well I think people would really notice these buffs, by level 10 a realta would do +100 damage x research thats significant

nova valley
#

Haha that’s massively significant.

tawny marsh
#

@nova valley well 10k is just a theoretical # but it would have to be added to base

sour jacinth
#

Scopely should seriously consider an API to at least get battle logs out of the game, if not ALB and Alliance stats too

#

Wishful thinking though

tawny marsh
#

People need to see the effect of bonuses to motivate them to keep progressing. Its why im so frugal with research because most research gives nothing noticeable

sour jacinth
#

Then again, Scopely would probably charge 99 a month for said API

earnest hornet
tawny marsh
#

It does add up but it doesn't actually make a difference and the cost vs reward are completely out of balance.

I can drop 300 million dilithium and 10,000 uncommon for a 30% increase and guess what it wouldn't knock off 1 round on most fights

#

Its not useful

#

And right now the only realistic way to increase base stats on your ships is getting the next tier ship.

Thats why I've never taken a ship past tier 4. The math just doesn't justify the cost.

#

T4 enterprise vs t9

#

Those increases are a joke

nova valley
tawny marsh
#

Best research is critical strike, critical damage and penetration.

But even penetration against high enough hostiles eventually becomes worthless

nova valley
#

But that said. It is a game of nickels and dimes as Aaron said. Eventually they add up. Which is kinda the point. The player who has them all can whip the player that has half. Even if both of them are flying the same ship.

Am I missing something here. Shouldn’t the AMS have a score ?

earnest hornet
#

its one of those things with the research its like those people that chuck all their nickels and dimes in a jar, yes they are small, but as you add more they will accumulate, and in some ways aren't bad for doing them,
But yea you may not do them and have a 300% armada damage increase and be like thats 100% net increase, but still lower then someone else who may also have 300% worth of other researches on top.

#

at the end of the day, theres a tough balance between base % and Net increase %'s

nova valley
unique quiver
#

I did go for a walk about last night before the reset so that explains it. Thank you.

tawny marsh
#

@earnest hornet yes but eventually the difference becomes so insignificant it no longer is relevant.

Consider riker over 100 rounds. That's 10,000% increase weapon damage. Whatever research you have is like throwing a glass of water at the ocean.

#

This isn't hypothetical its a proven fact you can see it on the vidar, and the franklin. Research just becomes irrelevant with certain officers. Unless like the franklin the %'s are in the 10's of thousands

#

Here look at round 2 vs round 28 using the damage increase we talked about

800k to 4.9 million damage.
Think about that research will never, ever close that gap and those are non-crits!!!

Why should research close the gap between what should be a good officer run well? Crew is meant to stand out 😅
I'd agree that they need to do something about the system generally, but I think anything short of a complete redesign will fall short. Needs to be a mix of base and total increase, % to base probably better than flat value though, and the overall size of bonuses needs to be scaled back in some cases imo (part of the problem is that they increased bonuses and then added even more..)

tawny marsh
#

@robust vapor because of the cost. Research should be comparable to officers its extremely expensive.

Yes research is where you should have flat increase to base that would affect all % increases. Then rebalance officer abilities.

#

I think this would balance the game considerably. You want flat bonuses invest in research want % increases tier up your officers

Cost is just how Scopely is. Don't forget how much it would cost to actually buy Riker 😂 value is a whole other issue in this game, driven by sheer lunacy at Scopely and the whales that throw money at them..
And flat values don't scale well. I mean if I used your example numbers I could probably beat up G3 faction warships with my Realta, that's not ideal.. my ISS would do only twice the damage of my Realta with that buff on them both, I'd be mad to even use anything but my Realta 😅 a % increase to base though scales with your ships instead.

tawny marsh
#

Thats not even modertly difficult to correct though.

You can have diffrent tiers of bonus affect diffrent tiers of ships

T1 research applies to all ships
T2 applies to g2+
T3 applies to g3+
T4 applies to g4+

ornate geyser
#

What I'm getting from this is we can replace one overly complicated system with another overly complicated system.

I'd rather they just revamp the research trees. Too many research nodes in too many places doing exactly the same thing.

tawny marsh
#

@ornate geyser if anyone has every played path of exile scopely basically copied their system

#

You have 3 types of damage increase

  1. Flat damage bonus to base
  2. A base % increases
  3. A global multiplier
#

The problem we have at stfc is scopely only uses type 2, and barely does anything with type 1 or 3

#

That creates tons of imbalances and diminishing returns

ornate geyser
#

Diminishing returns is how you create anti-diminishing spending as players level.

I don't think they're ready to let that go...

tawny marsh
#

Well its also how you eventually motivate players not to spend on research at all

#

Like I don't event touch the combat tree its absurdly expensive I just get my bonuses from territory tree

#

Its not necessary to do absolutely anything

ornate geyser
#

I don't disagree with any of that. But the MO for this game is exactly that - "absurdly expensive".

Until that changes - good luck, lol - I don't see it getting meaningfully improved.

tawny marsh
#

Well that's why im trying to get the message out the more people that realize it and stop investing in these useless trees the more likely scopely changes

halcyon sentinel
#

😄

robust vapor
#

Well that's probably because they have old combat research and then new territory research. They probably just expect that everyone will have finished all of the combat by now 😂 and they obviously expected territories to be hotly contested, making it harder to progress through the research 😬

tawny marsh
#

Yeah that's why I constantly call their design team amateurs

#

They try to force players to play the game their way instead of adapting to how players play the game.

Thats like the first thing a freshman in college learns about game design and user engagement

The design team is a disaster, frankly.

But here instead of just trashing lets list their failures.

  1. Armada pvp
  2. Single faction locking only
  3. Territory competition
  4. Level camping
  5. Away team mission refresh tokens
  6. Refinery throttling to force pack buying
  7. Speciatly ships
  8. G4 armada chests
  9. Not accounting for player ROE
  10. Loyalty chests
#

In all these cases they tried to change player behavior by force and failed horribly

They're going to try #9 again. Server transfers....create maurading alliances of rogues going from Farmville server to Farmville server, wreaking havoc.

We'll see soon enough. Either way, it'll be the end of the game, IMO. Either the whales get swept out from everywhere, and take their spending with them, or they're unstoppable everywhere and they leave because there's nothing left to beat up on because everyone else left.

For sure. But some people like to save them and hope for a better payout down the road. Prime directive for example or the factions ones. However if you want to be rewarded in the server milestone you have to use your free one. Not saying we can't do it, just that the choice to maybe hold a free ticket kinda gets taken away. If that makes sense. Still like the event.
