[inner cave]

<@&509691205798592532> is the recruit rom hostile hunt meant to be ticked ?? Last time it was then wasn’t

[abstract gate]

Yesterday the recruit Rom SLB showed 24 hour duration. Today it showed to be complete at reset. After reset its back to 24 hours. What’s the deal?

[jagged sun]

They ticket locked it a few days ago and then fixed it. Hoping they do the same today.

[young pike]

Can anyone just answer tickets or not

Think that’s all people want to know

[nocturne kelp]

i need these 1* ship parts so desperate for my 4* ship. Thank you scopely! 🤬

[rough frost]

Still not corrected after 1h

[distant wren]

any chance their attitude is "we gave them two free tickets (20) last week, so they can pay for the rom meta this week with one of those two tickets"?

[vital gyro]

some people had spent the tickets already to wouldn't have gotten free set

like spent then refunded, only those who didn't spend it on the rom event benefited

[clear barn]

<@&509691205798592532> the same mistake than last Rom event....

[distant wren]

the cooldown timer on the free set was 22 hours, so if you were quick you could have gotten ur set of tickets back that you spent on rom last week, and still gotten an additional set of tickets. That is what ended up happening to me, so technically I'm still net positive 10 uncommon event tickets. But anyone who wasn't online to collect them prior to 2 hours post-reset wouldn't have been so lucky.

I have members of my alliance who are out of event tickets and cannot join the rom meta hostile hunt though, so I hope they'll fix it.

[keen ledge]

We know and it was already escalated just after reset. No one around to respond to us yet.

[icy panther]

Not happy. Communication is everything.

Tell us that Tickets will be needed to complete Metas BEFOREHAND. This is a new practice. Communicate.

[earnest hornet]

This was in error last weekend, same error this time, just wait it’s been passed up the chain, and it will be sorted,

[cyan cave]

anyone else having issues with Rom Armada Event?

[proud dust]

well how do you get those armada controls when in order to buy them at Alliance store you have to purchase them with credits won from participating in Armadas, sounds like a "circular reference " 😦

[wooden grotto]

This skips lvl 40-44 of hostile points.

[earnest hornet]

Have you tried hitting them and actually seeing??

Because likely they just accidentally didn’t make the list long enough to show it, normally there’s 3 tabs but cos there’s armadas there not the proper space.

[wooden grotto]

They’re scoring, I was just pointing out that they weren’t there, it just looked like they missed them.

[glacial mauve]

When did the st Patrick's Day store finish?

[wind fog]

Yesterday, I think

There was a timer on all the store options.

[pale kestrel]

I restarted and jsut now the recruit rom hostile hunt no longer costs a ticket to join

[wooden grotto]

I joined it and lost tickets. I can’t join the other events

I would have to buy more tickets to join the ticked events

[keen ledge]

I would submit a ticket to CS, explain what happened, and see if they will refund you the tickets.

[untold pendant]

No credit for the first mining event in the meta event yet. Second mining event worked though

[pale kestrel]

jsut remember, one is specifically crystal, other is any material type

[rough mist]

same

[lost warren]

the armada event isn't working

[earnest hornet]

What armadas have you been doing??

[lost warren]

ok

unc

sorry

[earnest hornet]

👍🏼

[odd orchid]

Does winning swarm armadas give points?

[jagged sun]

This put me through undue stress. I demand compensation.

[random tide]

shouldnt. only starts

[desert laurel]

At least one person on your server has to buy them from the shop to start the chain. The rest can earn them from credit exchange

[abstract gate]

or u can ask for help to another alliance that already have them make some join that alliance make some credits to buy the armada controls go back to your alliance and help the others have them too!

[tardy ether]

Anyone notice it’s Recruit Rom Pt 1 (again!)?

[pale steppe]

Are the compensation chests with the tickets still rolling out?

[wary oxide]

Is the current ticket claim a 48 hour from yesterday or two - 24 hour claims? At reset I didn’t have a ticket claim then a few hours later I did but it had a timer started before I could claim @desert laurel

[elder rock]

I thought a treasury event was supposed to be running?

[unborn anvil]

@desert laurel will tomorrow run both swarm and hostile hunt? Otherwise unless we opt in that ticket event we gonna come short on meta

[desert laurel]

click on it, and show me a SS of the event itself

The event's been updated a few hours ago to remove the ticket cost, if yours still has it, then clear localization and check again

[last sun]

Oh, you can fix the rom thing but not the cloak?!

[desert laurel]

what's wrong with your cloak?

[wary oxide]

Anyone know if the ticket claim today is a fresh 24 hour or a 48 hour carried over from yesterday?

[desert laurel]

your question makes no sense to me, why does it matter? collect it when the cooldown is up

[wary oxide]

I believe it's two 24 hour ticket claims. I don't understand why today's ticket claim would start without the option to claim. If it was a 48 hour timer then maybe it makes sense. But the ticket claim option disappeared at reset, which is why I assume it's two - 24 hour claims.

It matters to me because 10 tickets as a F2P has a lot of value.

[desert laurel]

so you're wondering if you missed a claim? nope

[ripe jungle]

I think it was supposed to be done, then they extended the timer when they realized the screwup with the hostile hunt event.

[wary oxide]

It was already claimed when the ticket claim appeared.

[desert laurel]

that's normal, you didn't miss anything

[wary oxide]

I can only claim the 2 hours before tomorrow's reset.

Only having 2 hours to claim the ticket 22 hours into the day is not normal

[desert laurel]

it's normal in the sense that it's what happened to everyone else

[wary oxide]

Well now you're making this more confusing.

Is the gift bundle mentioned by the content creators this additional ticket claim then? Or are these separate?

[desert laurel]

You'll have to ask them. I'm talking about the free tickets that was going to end early this morning, and instead extended to tomorrow

[wary oxide]

The 24 hour ticket claim was extended another 24 hours. Thank you, that answers the question

[hexed lark]

<@&509691205798592532> ???

[desert laurel]

event runs another day, as seen to the left of that circle

[sullen barn]

and mining mastery runs twice, as can be seen in current running and previous days results right now.

you know they really should just add a 'x2' to the the event that runs twice so ppl would stop panicking every time this type of event is ran.

[desert laurel]

people will complain they didn't get 20pts then

maybe:
Mining Mastery Pt1
Mining Mastery Pt2

[sullen barn]

lol yeah, but i'm sure ppl will still find a way to miss that and complain

[frigid ocean]

Someone was saying there's a discovery event that awards points for destroying the discovery but I'm not seeing that listed. Is that a different tier?

[sullen barn]

Anomalous Phenomena: Destroy w/ Discovery

[frigid ocean]

That awards points for destroying WITH the discovery, but not destroying THE discovery

Unless it's just unwritten?

[gray ravine]

Exchange armadas are not scoring for Armada Assault event? The event says nothing about only a certain type of armada giving points.

[cunning radish]

They usually don’t

[ripe jungle]

There’s no regular event that gives points for destroying the discovery. There was a disco pvp event that ran a couple times during the last arc though.

[frigid ocean]

Got ya, but not active currently

[glossy fog]

Do swarm armada count for assault event?

[wintry cypress]

Starting it, yes. Fighting them, I'm not sure

[glossy fog]

Cheers

[proven bluff]

@desert laurel where do I go to get my Tickets back for an event I paid for yesterday and is now free?

I am getting really tired of Scopley stealing from me

[south arrow]

They gave a extra set of tickets by extending the ticket pull by 1 day

[proven bluff]

Anyone who didn't do the event because they didn't want to spend a ticket gets it for free. I paid

Scopley took my tickets for a free event. That is stealing

[south arrow]

And they gave 10 extra tickets

[scenic kernel]

technically, every time you buy a pack from Scopely, they steal you 🤣

[proven bluff]

You really don't get it. They gave 10 tickets to everyone. Then they took 10 tickets from me (and a lot of other people I am sure) for a free event. That is stealing

[slim radish]

Where they ferengi. Lol

[south arrow]

I knew it was a mistake because of last week so I waited

In the end you didn’t loose an tickets you just didn’t gain any because you were impatient

[proven bluff]

Are you on Scopely’s payroll?

Because I didn’t wait 18 hours to see if an event was bugged, I’m supposed to be penalized?

[south arrow]

I knew it was so should you have and no I complain about scopley all the time 🤣

And it was maybe 3-4 hours but I have patience

[restive inlet]

Well maybe you have patience, but some people don’t have time all the day to look if it’s now for free or not. I can relate to @proven bluff it’s crazy that scopely can’t fix bugs…since 3 years

[hardy parcel]

They don't care. They repeat the same errors and platitudes because it's cheaper than fixing them.

Honestly it's like the game is in the process of being wound down 🤣

[restive inlet]

As long as the 💸💸💸💸 flys scopely don’t care, can agree to that

[scenic kernel]

And they give free tickets 🤷 but still people complains

[proven bluff]

@keen ledge Good Morning

Does Scopley have any plans on refunding the tickets they stole from players for the Recruit Rom event that is now free? (I'm pretty sure I know the answer, but thought I'd try to ask someone anyway)

Everyone who didn't pay has one more ticket than everyone who paid. It's called math

[hardy parcel]

The problem is they give free tickets to everyone, not just those who wasted them.

So I can kind of see the complaint, even if I don't agree.

[scenic kernel]

I understand, and I would be annoyed too.

but I wouldn't call that "stealing"

[hardy parcel]

Calling it stealing is a bit far though.

It's like the contribution event the other day. When they doubled the points for helps and contributions after a whole bunch completed it.

Crappy move but not stealing.

[cunning radish]

Won’t somebody think of the etickets??!!

https://tenor.com/view/think-of-the-children-wont-somebody-please-for-the-kids-simpsons-children-are-our-future-gif-16648290

[hardy parcel]

🤣

[south arrow]

🤣

[karmic vault]

Sigh, War & Business SMS - Elemination.... Can't they fix that once and for all?

[primal urchin]

Came here to point that out. Scopely still can’t spell their own events correctly

[karmic vault]

It's one thing if it's once in a while. It's another if it's repeatedly the same thing over and over...

[dense ivy]

what is FKR armada lol

[karmic vault]

Fed/Kling/Rom

[plucky ermine]

hmm is anyone else missing 10pts of their Rom Meta event? I did swarms, hostiles and 2x mining. strange.

[dense ivy]

ahhhhhhhh, thanks!

[karmic vault]

There's a Rom swarm event right now that's outside of the Recruit Rom

I assume that's the last 10 points

[plucky ermine]

ah thanks! then I probably rememberd doing swarms for tickets

[untold pendant]

I'm still missing 20 points because they still haven't fixed the missing points from the first mining event issue 😦

[karmic vault]

Looks like the Rom swarm got moved into the Recruit Rom one for me.

[plucky ermine]

yes, I can confirm this

[tardy ether]

Seriously scopely? An 8 day Clat mining event? STFC, mining edition …

[hardy parcel]

They don't care. They repeat the same errors and platitudes because it's cheaper than fixing them.

[glacial token]

Star Trek mining command 😂

[lyric timber]

i hope they fix it, because you cant even use the reward, event store ends at the same time

[zenith summit]

Why leave the Battle Pass just 300 points away from the next tier??

[wicked raft]

So you will by a pack to get to the next level.

[manic patio]

why is it i have had to reboot 8 times and still game is not working properly

9 times

what the hell

10 times

[upper wren]

So back to back armoda events not cool

[scenic pawn]

Please don't make me do this clat mining event for 8 days

[halcyon cloak]

Still missing 10 pts from the first day mining event… No response from Support so far 😤

[lost abyss]

Bro, we heard you like killin swarms, so here’s 4 days of swarm killing events.

[solar veldt]

@scenic pawn I give you permission to not do the mining event for 8 days. Do something you enjoy.

Your progression in the game may decline by .00008% but that has no long term impact.

Others that mine like crazy for eight days will burn out before you do and then you will be relatively the same spot as before.

[runic hawk]

More armada events? How about giving out some armada directives. Would be nice to actually compete in them for once... 🙄

[neat orbit]

Did one of the Rom events give out any points with a 5 in it? Cause im at 45 points

[wintry cypress]

Maybe you got part of the points by doing part of the needed event

[desert laurel]

Armada was giving out partial credit in each MS

[foggy hatch]

Why does the 8 day CLAT mining event with dabo rewards end at the same time that the event store dabo spins expire?

[sacred gale]

Because it runs one day longer than the battlepass itself

https://tenor.com/view/spock-dazzling-display-logic-star-trek-gif-16343803

[keen ledge]

wrong discord

[molten plank]

It was a roe violation during a mining event. How is this the wrong channel?

[keen ledge]

Because this is Scopely's discord for all servers. We don't allow ROE here since it isn't the same for all servers.

You probably need to find the discord for your server.

[molten plank]

My bad.

[pale kestrel]

is everyone else's battle pass milestones 300 points short of today's?

[uncut beacon]

Yep

[pale kestrel]

ok, wasn't sure if it was a bug or scopely bad math again

[uncut beacon]

Probably bugged, but you'll get enough in total to finish at the end

[pale kestrel]

had a couple times this last week where i completed the daily bp event and it'd show short of collecting and when i restarted later, it showed a milestone to collect

with so many bugs, it's hard to tell nowadays in this game

😣

[runic hawk]

And you know they will add another token for next months store. 😂
Forever will I have 20k gravimetric scanners. 🤦🏼‍♂️

[karmic vault]

Yeah, use it or forever clutter your inventory with it

20k, yikes, that's a big loss.

[jovial hearth]

Is scopley still doing server merger competition events?

[cunning radish]

they had an event a month or two ago about converting them

seems like you missed out on that

[desert laurel]

ours just merged, then a week or so of low reward events. Nothing memorable

[jovial hearth]

Im pretty sure i didnt miss unless it was extra extra lame event buried in another lame event

[tight zenith]

Lat rush bracket 34/35… the lvl 35 can get feesha. So no point for lvl 34, no way can you compete

[cunning radish]

….well if you didn’t do it, you obviously missed it? 🤣

It was a conversion in a shop or something. I didn’t see it myself Cus I had no scanners

[ripe jungle]

Huh? “Gravimetric scanners” was last month’s dabo chest currency. There was no “conversion”, you just had to spend it all last month, no idea why you’d carry over 20k worth of that.

[karmic vault]

As far as I know, there's never been a "conversion" of event currencies. Which is why our inventories are cluttered with misc left over currencies as time goes on.

[ripe jungle]

Yep, that’s annoying but usually for the spare change that was impossible to spend, I don’t get why someone would leave as much as 20k unspent.

[karmic vault]

Yeah, that's a huge amount of lost resources.

[ripe jungle]

I think Simpy is confusing it with the conversion they ran for ship skin shard trackers

[untold pendant]

Do the Enterprise and friends appear in the event boxes for levels 31 and 32, or only 33+?

[viral forge]

Why is tpring in pvp ultra recruit pack

[cunning radish]

Oh I am 🤣

[waxen spoke]

I actually wish yall had added directives to the Dabo tables. chances at uncommon rare and epic

[cunning radish]

That’d be nice

[waxen spoke]

Especially if yall knew there was there would be alot of armadas

[dapper drum]

they also lowered the scoring for using epic directives

use to finish this event with 1 epic and 1 rare, now you need 1 epic + 2 rares

or sit around in game all day hoping someon can find a rare for you to join x 20

• starting an epic

wasn't bad enough they removed uncommon wins from scoring they had to make sure you needed more than 1 pack to finish entirely now

[lethal lotus]

Scopley has sucked the fun out of the game with the freesha ship that most can’t afford

[cunning radish]

https://tenor.com/view/no-bugs-bunny-nope-gif-14359850

[fathom shuttle]

They have with a lot of things. But I fail to see how the feesha did that.
Eventually everyone will have one, just like with the regular dvor. 🤷‍♂️

[scenic kernel]

They gave arrock that bascially make any miner a half-speed feesha, and you can use miner to mine for 1h and get enough clat for one day

[vital drum]

Feesha ain't so bad, refreshes the whole latinum thing which it badly needed. I can imagine how many people will cry when the new Vidar A comes along

I'm gonna build 4 just in case

[desert laurel]

each maxed vidar will cost 1.2m CNs, that's a lot of credits to give up in preparation for something that may never happen

[winged tulip]

I've built a second just in case, sod tiering it though

[robust vapor]

Also you probably wouldn't need a new and old one, like the Franklin..

[desert laurel]

so build 2 new ones 😃

[viscid helm]

Maxxed Vidars really are not a problem over time.... 😉

[abstract gate]

I see a Valdore 🤣

[viscid helm]

working on it 😉 merely a matter of time.... scopely basically ruined my plans with the additional docks

point is: if you do a daily refine you have more than enough probes

[inner cave]

8 day mining event. Trying to get people to only use fresha on mining Mondays only 🤣

[south arrow]

What a waste of time and rss

[lapis harbor]

STOP with the dam armada events already

If I never see another armada event it’ll be to soon

[cedar laurel]

I don't even participate in it anymore!

[celest rover]

Scopley Math failure or did 10 points come from something else?

[lost abyss]

Every day it’s a dozen plus of these posts. The event runs multiple days, one of the 10-pt events runs twice.

[gilded patrol]

For me and several others in our alliance the mining event on day one didn't score for the meta. Opened a ticket Saturday, yet to hear back

[fair summit]

did you opt into the hostiles and 2 of 1 day mining pieces?

i cant personally complete the aramda event or id have it complete.

plus i only found out a couple hours before reset that the hostile event piece was reset from being a ticketed event into an opt in(like the faction rep dailie opt in event) from watching the rev deuce live video.

[gilded patrol]

I know I completed every event and am still 10 points short.

[fair summit]

the mining event reset its clock second day

[gilded patrol]

Top screenshot is from Saturday, next two are Sunday's events, and last one is yesterday's

I'm aware. I did both mining events. The one from Saturday didn't score for the meta event

[fair summit]

did you perchance complete the event as it came on live?

[halcyon cloak]

Same Issue, 10 pts missing… still no answer from support

[desert laurel]

If you've cleared localization without success, you're waiting on CS

[gilded patrol]

Yeah, that's what I figured. Hoping they just credit me the last milestone rewards. I've had others in my alliance do the same

[desert laurel]

The people who skipped hostile hunt have a different problem though. Can't get the rewards if you choose to skip the event

[gilded patrol]

Heh, yeah, that one I almost missed the Join Now button until I did my daily "did I finish everything" check 🤣

[cyan finch]

Treasury rewards... Ops based?

[clever hound]

Mining event 7 days good work scopley

[hybrid grove]

Anyone know why Scope screwed us? Not sure if I missed the reasoning or solution I need those 200 lucky pull tokens.

[wintry cypress]

You probably missed an event. Mining mastery was twice.

[shrewd knot]

There was an event you had to join I almost missed yesterday.

[gilded patrol]

Open a ticket with CS. The Saturday mining event didn't score for some

[shrewd knot]

Not sure why you had to join a free event. But likely it was to drive some metric and not have to give out rewards

[cold horizon]

At lvl28: is this a joke?
Also no key in scopely store to open it….

[uneven oak]

read the instructions

[cold horizon]

Ok

[uneven oak]

press i next to the points

[cold horizon]

But rewards are almost offensive, compared to other levels

[uneven oak]

agreed

Im lvl 44 and rewards are good for me

[hardy parcel]

yup but bet you anything it'll cost £100 for the good rewards and £5 for the chaff 😂

[cold horizon]

Not worth any amount of real cash to want to open it

[open thunder]

Is that dil right?

[rain whale]

How come people with lower level as I get much more greens and Lat? Is there any logic behind „who gets what“? Thought it depends on ops Lvl oO

[cold horizon]

Apparently logic is not in scopely dictionairy

Event is messed up - again

[viral yarrow]

I love the new treasury do all dailies for 7 days or kill 700 hostiles just for the pleasure of giving scopley money for the rewards you done the above for 🤣🤣🤣 think I'll start paying my boss a wage for the pleasure of working for him 🤣🤣

[serene forum]

nice, my previous comment went boom

[timid elk]

Are rewards based on treasury building level?

[rain whale]

Supposed to be based on ops Lvl

[viral yarrow]

And how big your wallet is

[rain whale]

But then, as mentioned by me, people with lvl 34 get like 800+ green mats and 100k+ lat and I with 39 get 60k lat and 400 green mats…

[hardy parcel]

my wallet is smol but my treasury is mahoosive

[timid elk]

I'm ops 41 and my rewards are garbage. 47k dil compared to 2.8bil for a 43 on my server. Seems too big a difference.

[misty ridge]

support chat quit responding halfway through opening a ticket. Great job, Scopely

[serene forum]

ops 41,1.6B total dil

[icy sedge]

It's also Treasury level based it seems?

Lv39 with Treasure 9 has worse rewards then Lv31 with Treasury 20

[thick wagon]

is there any info on the price for this lockbox key?

[hardy parcel]

no, it's based on ops and something else

[misty ridge]

oh, and I get penalized for doing my dailies before noon reset. Really great job, Scopely

[thick wagon]

you will kill the 100 hostiles if you do the rest of the dailies the next 6 days

[misty ridge]

if they didn't break that too

[misty ridge]

support chat is still not responding, never even finished my ticket

[remote ferry]

https://tenor.com/view/anakin-star-wars-padme-gif-5048790

[restive inlet]

Is the treasury level based or is it random or what is it?

[hardy parcel]

ops based plus something we don't know about.

[restive inlet]

Well ops 41 260k lat, ops 39 1k?

Can’t be ops level based, and not treasury level based

[viral yarrow]

I'm ops 41 and 100k lat it did say 290k lat but changed 20 mins later

[vagrant mulch]

The packs can be 5€ or up to 100$ so ofc there will be a difference.

[restive inlet]

Or is it, how many money did you invest?

[dusk terrace]

Scopely and their new money grab can hypothetically go hug an angry mama bear

[hardy parcel]

well according to the blog it's ops based. but there is definitely something fishy about it. As you said there are strange outliers. my guess is there is some secret metric same as with the military supremacy event

[cold horizon]

Seems they incorporated a random part in it. One thing is for sure: Balancing isn’t something Scopley thought about

[stark needle]

I only get 14 uncommon gas.. and I’m higher treasury level, and higher ops level than some players in my alliance who are getting 850 gas..

Just such an enormous difference

Level 39, with level 10 treasury

[glacial mauve]

lol

[bleak idol]

Restart game

[hardy parcel]

yes. so it can't be just ops level or just treasury level. something very screwy is going on....

[cold hedge]

Final Daily Goal?

[stark needle]

I reset game too, 14 vs 850 is obscene though, especially considering I’m higher level in both ops and treasury.

I am f2p, I wonder if how much you have spent on the game traditionally is the difference.. that would be pretty low @scopely

[hardy parcel]

they just removed all the epic g4 mats from my vault 😂

[stark needle]

There’s absolutely no way I would spend any amount of money or 14 uncommon gas though….

[cold horizon]

As usual: do NOT trust scopely on these things. They tend to change rewards etc without any notice to the players at all.
In the real world, thats called a scam

[hardy parcel]

it's only a scam after you pay $$ before that it's called being shady (nasty but not criminal) 😂

[last sun]

For real…biggest issue I have with scopy

[hoary fossil]

Anyone got the price of the ROD yet ?? Tag me if ya do

[ionic sphinx]

https://youtu.be/NBxzfsYQTEY

[crisp current]

Ops 30, treasury lvl 10

[grizzled mulch]

Don’t know for sure, but based on this payout, at least $50, if not $100. This is equivalent to/better than the “choice” chests

[hoary fossil]

Ok this will be a building I’ll never use then

[quasi zodiac]

Does scopley have competitions to see who can come up with the worst idea? If so, you're all winning

[silent cedar]

just seems a bit unnecessary why make packs 'limited time' that you have to grind for...any profit they gain is offset by more people being annoyed at the underhanded tactics to get people to spend

[stark needle]

How are you level 30 and getting 50x more than me lol

[crisp current]

I'm special AF

[grizzled mulch]

Treasury level affects it. Wondering if an upgrade after it starts filling boosts it. We’ll know today

[crisp current]

He's level 39, with a lvl 10 treasury
I'm 30 with a lvl 10 treasury.

So he shouldn't have this huge discrepancy

[stark needle]

I guess what affects it is how much you previously spent in game, I’m f2p player so I guess I don’t get anything

Certainly 14 uncommon gas isn’t going to convince me to start paying lol

[crisp current]

I only do Battlepass $20

[hardy parcel]

treasury has no effect

it's ops and spending

[naive kiln]

how do i get the 100 points? i finished all events today

but all i ahve is points for killing hostiles

[hardy parcel]

kill hostiles

[naive kiln]

for tresury

they say you can get 100 poitns for something

[grizzled mulch]

Wow. If it’s based on previous spending, I think I’ll skip it just on principle

[timid elk]

Some on my server are noticing the rewards dropping from billions to millions

[hardy parcel]

doing 4 days of the 25 hostiles will make up the 100 points.

The last milestone gets 100 points

[naive kiln]

what last milestone?

i finished all my events and milestoens

[hardy parcel]

tomorrow, and the next day etc

it's a 7 day "event"

[naive kiln]

ahh

so i didnt time todays correctly, i guess ill kill 700 hostiles

[grizzled mulch]

If you do dailies every day, you’ll be able to unlock. Hostile won’t matter (but will help, ofc)

[grizzled mulch]

Just do 6 days + 100 hostiles

[naive kiln]

thank you!

[untold pendant]

You'll get it a lot sooner than that, since you've got 50 swarms and 25 faction hostiles to kill for each daily, so by completing one day you're already getting 175 points at least

[quasi zodiac]

Factions are done with 50 hostiles, but yeah

[untold pendant]

Mine are done with 25

[quasi zodiac]

No all 3 in 50

Sorry. Bad wording on my part

[hardy parcel]

yeah plus hostile events. it's easy to catch up the missed 100 points either way

[untold pendant]

Mine are done in 25, and I was using minimum numbers. If you're some high level player with three factions to do, then sure, but I can't speak for high level players since for all I know you have daily missions to kill 666 doom worms

[quasi zodiac]

Wtf 😅

That's nuts

[wintry turret]

I just went home. What did Scope this time made worse?

[spiral canyon]

They still haven’t released how much this desealing rod crap will cost. Afraid of the mass hate message they will receive when we find out?

[cold horizon]

Would be nice if Scopely gave ANY sign of life, other than sneakily changing treasury contents.

Communication isn’t their strongest point, as far as they have any strong points at all

[rare belfry]

Comparing to players in my alliance and my rewards are worse than people 4 ops levels lower than me. Hardly incentive to buy these rods is it?

[ripe jungle]

Hm I haven’t spent anything since November, and ops 33/lvl 9 I got 390 uc crystal/ore and 590 uc gas in it

[spiral canyon]

Im guessing the rods will be at the low low price of $99

[icy sedge]

Chest rewards got stealth nerfed?

Went from 150K Lat to 66K Lat

[cold horizon]

At lvl28, my treasury content is about worth the same as rewards of a simple event. No incentive at all to put effort in it, let alone spending a penny on unlocking it

[icy sedge]

Before dinner:

After dinner;

[ashen wharf]

[wintry cypress]

Stayed the same for me, 41k

[tacit ruin]

So just so I’m understanding this correctly you will need to score the points to unlock and then also buy the key?

[ashen wharf]

yes

[tacit ruin]

Thanks

[spiral canyon]

How much that will be is anyones guess

[icy sedge]

UC went from 850/550 to 640/430

Dilithium from 220M to 49M

1.4M Parsteel though xD, not like every upgrade costs 200-300M Parsteel

Why do I even act surprised, worthless junk.

[bleak idol]

Wait until u do the 700 hostile u need to pay 100 plus to unlock the treasure

[naive kiln]

why in the world do we need to mine Clat for 7 days as an event?

[sage hollow]

hey did anyone finish the rom event? completed all the missions for it... and only ended up with 90 points?

where was the final ten points come in from?

[bleak idol]

Swarms

[icy sedge]

@sage hollow one of the earlier missions costed tickets to start, that cost got removed. Check your earlier completed events if that quest is still there and press JOIN to do it.

[sage hollow]

oh wtf...

oh its gone...

grr

thats why im missing 10 points... i did all the ones.

[polar barn]

Or a bit different. At first day the mining didn't count. On second day you got all stuff for 90 points. On 3rd day back to 100 points without adding the 10 points. 😅

[icy sedge]

I was able to complete it with the ticket event.

But I did that before 5PM.

[rare forge]

Alliance store or regular money store? If money store any idea how much?

[desert laurel]

the rod is in the cash shop

[hallow ember]

Money store.

$100 bucks.

[ashen wharf]

🤣

[hallow ember]

Or your local equivalent.

[icy sedge]

@desert laurel any screenshot you could provide? Not visible here :\

[desert laurel]

have you filled your treasury?

[icy sedge]

520/700

[desert laurel]

you need to fill to see the offer

[icy sedge]

So the store offer is not visible unil 700/700?

[worldly shore]

Seems like the most pointless, designed to annoy, feature that Scopely has ever added

Surely they must have thought about it

Surely

If it's a pack, call it a pack and put it in the store

Don't give the illusion of players "earning" something

Either it's for whales, in which case they'll buy it anyway. Or it's for everyone else, in which case make it free (even free for much smaller rewards would be ok)

But basically it's the paid version of 7/30 day chests

What utter garbage

[lost abyss]

Can we get an option to hide the treasury event icon and timer?

[hallow ember]

Correct

[timber shadow]

Pretty clear it was a bait and switch from the very beginning with some FOMO thrown in.

Thanks again Scopely.

[icy sedge]

The rewards nerfs are absurd.

Not even worth 20EUR.

1.6M Parsteel on Ops36, srsly?

[quick olive]

You need to grind a bunch of random stuff in order to obtain the privilege of giving scopely $100. Such compelling gameplay.

[hardy parcel]

You expected anything else? 🤣

[timber shadow]

At this point, not really

[hallow ember]

There is supposedly a link to your previous cash spending as well, but that's not 100% confirmed. Spenders in my alliance had bigger rewards to start with at the same levels.

[icy sedge]

Pretty sure I am 3K+ in already

God knows why, but yeah, weak mind.

[hallow ember]

Mine started with 2* mats at level 34, so I'm not really too worried about it anyway. I'm not giving them $100 so it can sit there and look pretty.

[abstract gate]

Please tell what it costs if finished and mark me

[lost abyss]

$100 pack in US $

[abstract gate]

Hilarious

Scopely could stop working on updates …. No one can afford the new stuff …

[lament egret]

100 Euro jetzt drehen sie vollkommen durch 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

[abstract gate]

Nach Star citizen das teuerste Spiel dass ich jemals gesehen habe ….

[neat matrix]

Please take my £100. I can't live without that 283k parsteel at ops 44

[lament egret]

Für gefühlt jeden scheiss 100 Euro aufrufen

[peak cradle]

50L gasoline for the car or a key 🤔

[abstract gate]

Lol why is ur package so tiny ? 😳 at 41 it’s 290k lat in it 😂

[peak cradle]

Same lol , maybe he f2p

[neat matrix]

Yeah I haven't spent enough money to allow me to grind 700 red dots to pay more money

[restive inlet]

Let me show you my treasury, no money invested in 3 years: ops 39

[abstract gate]

We got the concept wrong …. It’s like a 150€ monthly payment to get progress …

[restive inlet]

And some g2/g3 but really?

[neat matrix]

It makes it easier not to spend tho doesn't it? 👍

[torpid helm]

If the rewards in the treasury are crap if you didn't spend money before it sure as hell isn't encouraging you to spend anything on opening it now

[abstract gate]

Right

[restive inlet]

I feel validated 🙈

[abstract gate]

In comparison to u

At ops 41

[timber shadow]

People just paying them money isn't enough anymore.

Now you have to spend your own time grinding their game for the "privilege" to pay them $100.

[torpid helm]

That's 190k more latinum then i am getting at ops 41

[lyric timber]

i was going to type that

[icy sedge]

Discrimination, lovely

[lyric timber]

ops 41

[torpid helm]

Yeah that looks familair

[neat matrix]

I figure it's got 5 tiers :

• completely f2p
• bought a £5 pack
• bought a £18 pack
• bought a £45 pack
• bought £89 pack

Rewards from treasury increases at each milestone and scales with ops

[lyric timber]

that would be just wrong xd

[hallow ember]

Yours looks just like mine at 34 with the same spending patterns.

[torpid helm]

Maybe it's time they pulled the event again for 'technical' issues

[hallow ember]

I have spent $20 total in game but still have the zero level rewards.

[sleek hornet]

Give the rods for free if you do the event and if you don't want to do the event allow the rod to be bought

[neat matrix]

Did you buy packs.... Or misc stuff like battlepass, extra builder, Leslie pack?

[urban crown]

https://tenor.com/view/money-dollars-cash-rich-gif-3574345

[neat orbit]

will it be $100 for each rod or a 1 n done?

[ember walrus]

Have a free line and a pay line like the BP

[ember walrus]

Probably 1 each time

[torpid helm]

You will need a new rod every single time

[neat orbit]

subbing to an onlyfans feels cheaper and more rewarding than paying scopley

[ember walrus]

So does getting kicked in the face

[hallow ember]

Battlepass for me.

[neat matrix]

Then you've never bought one of the station packs etc. If you buy the £5 one it used to make the next tier appear

It's probably the same concept

[keen citrus]

Anybody heard how much Scopely want for the Desealing Rod for the treasury?

[neat orbit]

#100 and uir first born

[ember walrus]

All of the money

[lyric timber]

89 quid xD

not much

hahahahahahaha

you must grind and pay them for it! 😄

[keen citrus]

I won’t be buying that then 😳🤣😂

[neat orbit]

i mean ur buying a rod to get screwed, sounds like a red light special

[ember walrus]

I might buy something like that if you got ship bps in it. Not random mind you but you chose the set

[drowsy garden]

You will @dinky, guaranteed 🤣🥳🥳 you’ve been waiting for this opportunity 🥳🤣🥳

[lyric timber]

cant express my opinion anymore, deleting my msg

didnt offend anyone

[viscid helm]

So can someone explain to me the logic of the current mining event - a level 43 needs 1.42M pts, a level 38 needs 1.76M pts....

[drowsy garden]

No you’re grinding for the right to be able to buy a rod/get screwed
🤣🥳🥳🤣😂

[keen citrus]

I’d rather pull my own teeth 🦷🤣😂

[hallow ember]

Only Scopely could come up with a way to reward people who actually spent less get more somehow.

[neat orbit]

you cant tell me this event isnt a full basket of sexual innuendos....

[drowsy garden]

Well, that angle can’t go unnoticed 🤣🥳🥳

They deffo, ripping the pisss 🤣🥳🤣 I won’t be arriving ….

[neat orbit]

i was gonna cough up the 20 for the BP but im rethinking that now.

[neat hamlet]

Is this where people come to chat about the treasury events ?

[neat orbit]

yes, but were rippin them about it

[lyric timber]

every time i post about not buying it just gets deleted xD freedom of speech is gone here

[wind trout]

deleting in 3,2,1

[lyric timber]

hahahaha

[wind trout]

this countdown isn't right.... sounds like the treasury thingy

🤣

[native geode]

if i haven't got it then i wait until i have rss, i played nearly from beginning and only thing i brought with a google play token is second builder, i play for pleasure ... packs for me are no go .. gas electric rent and food need money

[edgy monolith]

The treasury is not a player storage container. It is marketing additional rss for cash. You can only dive in if you pay the fee. Second money grab each month.

[hallow ember]

It's probably how you post it. This board has very specific rules on how you can talk about scopley practices. You can though. I talk about them all the time though and it stays just fine.

[lost abyss]

Don’t complain here, flood their actual support and feedback channels in game or via the website. This is like the 50th thing on the list they check and listen to.

[lyric timber]

i actually made sure not to break any rule

[native geode]

everything a lottery

[ashen wharf]

Reminder they dont have a community manager here anymore

so they dont care lol

[hallow ember]

I have a multi bullet list I am copying and pasting into every survey now. Same list every time till they get addressed.

[neat hamlet]

100 bucks for something digital. Get me a code writer to tell me exactly how hard it is to write the code for these digital goods that it costs 100s of dollars to pay them for their time spent

[wind trout]

AHAHAHA

[native geode]

they stopped ukraine ceasefire shield because peoplw wern't pvp ing or ra

[wind trout]

ERASED AGAIN

[native geode]

raiding as they were shielded

[wind trout]

and KraiT got banned!

how beautiful it is to let one speak his mind out..

[pseudo radish]

89.99 for a rod after grinding 700 hostiles what an absolute pisstake

[wind trout]

one customer

don't see one offensive message from the guy...

briliant move as always

[ember walrus]

Anyone finished the grind to see rod cost yet

[pseudo radish]

Oh and they only give you 3 days to decide if you wanna buy 🤣🤣

[wind trout]

99.99€

[pseudo radish]

@ember walrus 89.99

[heavy sentinel]

In capitalist US, free speech gets you banned 😂😂😂 Scopely deleting messages critical of the treasury event is in EAPECIALLY BAD TASTE in the current state of world affairs.

[wind trout]

deleting mechanics starting to roll in

[neat orbit]

i really now want a way to hide the thing from my screen.

[lost abyss]

That’s three days too many. I know now I don’t want it and would like the option to hide the timer and event icon off my screen without needing battle view on at all times.

[ashen wharf]

I want to hide all the stuff i dont have off my screen

At this point its adware

I cant see crap lol

[heavy sentinel]

But then how would they spam your dopamine riddled brain with flashy icons so you buy buy buy?

[unkempt lava]

99.99...

[heavy sentinel]

You got three days to sell another part of your kidney. Hurry up or lose out forever

[native geode]

it the same with armada events rare and epics only normal and faction works but everybody has stella /mudd armada credits

[nova schooner]

you guys are acting like this was a huge surprise. if you are here, you watch/listen to the content creators, and KNEW this was how the mechanic worked.... take your xanax and carry on with your normal gameplay

[ember walrus]

At least the rewards are decent i guess for those who want to spend

[icy sedge]

@ember walrus YMMV

[remote sky]

Normally packs that require you to do additional work are cheaper or give better rewards. This one gives you barely the same reward because they only show you the price afterwards and want you to pay because you already invested your time

[native geode]

addiction for those who pay money out big time, to be the 1st to have it etc

[icy sedge]

There seems to be zero explanation how the rewards are calculated/dtermined, and zero communication.

[ember walrus]

True for spenders it gets better

[hexed kettle]

Nah, this is a whole new level of greed. Which is really saying something lol

[nova schooner]

you only invested your time because you saw a timer on the treasury. you could have jsut done your dailies with no time investement

[copper sierra]

Commanders, The Treasury can now accumulate progress towards your 100% unlock. We're aware that contents are visible, but the price of the desealing rod will be presented when your treasury lockbox objectives are met. Claim your final daily chest (on the top row) to get credit for the daily portion of your scoring.

We are aware players are seeing varying contents of their chest as compared to other players. Do note that the content of the Lockbox (and therefore the cost of the desealing rod) is determined by various factors, including but not limited to, server age, Ops level, and prior engagement with the packstore. The level of the Treasury is not a factor.

Purchasing the desealing rod and opening the lockbox will factor into your 'prior spend' category therefore potentially 'upgrading' the value/cost of your lockbox in future runs.

As a note for players who saw their lockbox contents change in the early moments after event reset, note that there were targeting issues and some players briefly saw the incorrect contents originally. This has been corrected.

Finally, be aware that the desealing rods are unique per run, and if you choose to open this lockbox, once you FILL/obtain 100% on the objective, then the new pack will present with the new price point. You will have the lesser of 72 hours, OR the remaining Treasury timer to purchase the rod and unlock the lockbox. After this time, the packs will disappear and the Treasury will empty and go inactive until the next run. Desealing rods do not carry over, so if you purchase one, please don't forget to use it, or it will result in lost value.

We both apologize for the confusion, and appreciate your patience as we explore this new mechanic together! - Ops

[nova schooner]

Do note that the content of the Lockbox (and therefore the cost of the desealing rod) is determined by various factors, including but not limited to, server age, Ops level, and prior engagement with the packstore. The level of the Treasury is not a factor.

[ashen wharf]

Oh wow

So if you dont use it you lose it

[icy sedge]

Bla bla bla gief monies

[nova schooner]

this is a 2nd battlepass mechanic.... top line of battlepass = f2p treasury = mining and cargo buffs...... elite tier of battlpass = lockbox = pack purchase

[cold horizon]

Wonder what else determines it, and why we aren’t told about that

[ashen wharf]

Isnt that against mobile asset laws? It has to be usable at all times if its a purchasable digital item

[pseudo radish]

Does EA own scopley for just 100 pound you can fly through faction space

[nova schooner]

because the price of the rod "can" change during future runs of the treasury event

[lyric timber]

Actually @nova schooner the same content creators tell us to express how we feel about the events. and it doesn't seem right what is done with this event.

[ashen wharf]

yeah i get it i just know from digital goods for like google play- apple you cant do that

[nova schooner]

what "isnt right about it?" this is how the mechanic was explained when the treasury was announced

[keen citrus]

Scopely obviously don’t give a toss about the rising cost of living and the 50% hike in fuel costs. They just want your money any way they can get it.

[edgy monolith]

If the cost is dependent on server age, when do I get the option to jump to a cheaper server?

[nova schooner]

they still have their standard free2play product, they have not taken anything away from you. they only added for the people that want it

[coral niche]

As ops44 I have 3.4b dil in the box. Server 131

[nova schooner]

comparable. im ops46 and have 4.6B dil

[keen citrus]

That’s happening a lot lately, most events cater for the whales.

[neat orbit]

i guess the f2p side of it is, be happy with the new bonuses to stats the treasury gives

[nova schooner]

its only an issue when they take away their free2play product, then we can whine

[native geode]

other games respect their players like my 3 matching ones

[scenic kernel]

can we really? I mean I understand people who complains when the value of what they bought is lowered, but them removing something free, I am not sure.

[torpid helm]

I'm wondering if the content of the treasury lockbox can be lowered as well if you would stop buying packs..
Guess i'll find out

[rain whale]

Not complaining about the mechanic which was known before - fully agree on that.

[nova schooner]

star trek IP is expensive... and attracts a high end client. and they are catering and using that to their advantage

[hexed kettle]

Honestly, having pay products crammed down our throat on every screen probably violates a few consumer protection laws in many countries. And if they don’t directly, they certainly violate the spirit of those laws.

Ive spent more money on this game than ANY other video game, ever. And yet I am constantly bombarded with new content requiring more money, or else it stays there letting me know what I’m missing, all the time.

I have willpower. I say no. But this 💩 aint FUN, and as a consumer who has spent on their product before I’m giving my FEEDBACK that their rampant greed has made their product 💩.

That is all. 😂

[ashen wharf]

Change that one word or that all gets deleted by a mod

use poop emoji

[scenic kernel]

really? I only see paid stuff when I click on the "sale" button. I have played f2p games, where everytime you switch screen you get an ad for a pack.

[hexed kettle]

Thanks lol

[native geode]

star trek online £222 lifetime subscription and final fantasy 14 is approx £14 a month

[glad portal]

hi folks, has anyone had issues with scoring of the ‘Recruit Rom Pt 1 - SMS’? I completed all of the associated events but still came up 10 points short.

[nova schooner]

Star Trek Fleet Command - Free, until you want to pay

[native geode]

again respect for players ff14 had to suspend free play as servers overloaded

[hexed kettle]

Nah. Its pervasive, its getting worse, and its ruining the experience. And Im someone who spends $ on it.

[wintry cypress]

Probably either missed one event, didnt start one because of tickets, or first event didnt count

[normal folio]

Edited: Free until you want to play

[nova schooner]

you can play for free forever

you are just trying to keep up with the spenders... and thats today's culture

[worn coral]

Faut acheter leur clé tous les semaines ??

[worldly shore]

Until you are so overcome with the myriad of ways to game you into paying...

[wintry cypress]

Tu dois l'acheter à chaque fois, oui

[nova schooner]

its still free... you DONT have to spend a dime for the entire time you play

[native geode]

i'm L37 ops completed with no money spent all factions locked maxed augment too

[worn coral]

C' est mort allez vous faire ...... 🍑

[wintry cypress]

Bienvenue chez Scopely

[ashen wharf]

not that hard to do these days

[hexed kettle]

There is an opportunity cost for our valuable entertainment time and money. We are giving feedback that they are ruining (have ruined) this product. It will probably fall on deaf ears, but we will do it for a short period of time none-the-less.

Your PoV is fairly obvious. Maybe let the people quitting out of frustration and disgust have their say?

[urban crown]

i will talk now in german... scopely need pay me 99.99 € for the english language pack! 🤣 👍 👽

[native geode]

no thank you i dont want to stroke anybodies aubergine or various innuendos

[keen citrus]

We’ve all seen how spiteful and greedy Scopely are, when they stopped us looping for helps.

[nova schooner]

if you are quitting out of frustration and disgust, no need to be on their discord server lol

[wintry cypress]

Da mach ich mit 🤣

[urban crown]

🤣 gut 😄

[ashen wharf]

You dont have to play to be here though you can chat 😉

[nova schooner]

haha

true

but i charge $99 for the chat without play pack

[worldly shore]

And I won't. But a game mechanic where you score points that then Allows you to spend is just the definition of a dark pattern designed to get people into spending. It's playing human psychology and would not be allowed if they were say... a gambling company

[neat orbit]

did anyone else just get more diodes today?

[wintry cypress]

Did you level up your treasury to 10?

[hexed kettle]

Yeah. Not sure why its so hard to accept that this is predatory behaviour. But it is, and they’ll defend it to the very end.

[neat orbit]

yup that makes sense

[nova schooner]

this was a mechanic that was laid out prior to its launch. its the SAME concept as the elite battlepass

[native geode]

i'm heading to civilised forum got a battle in role 20 to do dragons v ogres

[worldly shore]

And I didn't like it when it was laid out prior to launch

[scenic kernel]

they are a gambling company, when they sell us lottery tickets, which they do all the time. but there is so intensive lobbying from gaming company against EU and US to prevent reclassification

[worldly shore]

Pre-warning bad stuff doesn't make it less bad when it actually arrives

[hexed kettle]

Anyone remember when video games where 50$, 60$, were fun for a long while and got you good entertainment value for your money? Oh right, that time is now. Steam filled to the brim with good games for half the price of one crappy stfc pack.

[worldly shore]

Yes, an unlicensed gambling company

[nova schooner]

its not bad though, do you have the same feelings towards the elite battlepass?

[worldly shore]

Pretty much

[nova schooner]

well then i dont know what to tell ya

[worldly shore]

Also, battlepass gives "something"

Regardless of spend

[nova schooner]

so does the treasury, mining and cargo buffs

for free

regardless of spend

[worldly shore]

And don't try to equate the buffs with res/mats

[hexed kettle]

Id say having more than 5 pay-to-advance mechanics (and obviously more on the way) on my screen is ‘bad’. Maybe its the sum of them, with the obvious implication there will be more and more and more to come?

[torpid helm]

Treasury gives an added annoying icon in your screen as well

[ashen wharf]

Cargo boosting isnt really that important

imo

[rare pivot]

Der schlüssel ist viel zu teuer

[rain whale]

It’s a bonus, as you said 😂

[nova schooner]

so you are big mad now, about the future mechanics already that arent announced

[rain whale]

But I got the impression KtotheJ got his opinion, that everyone should just should up an pay (or don’t). He’s cool with the way it is 😎

[ashen wharf]

when mining is always overloaded cargo boosting doesnt really help much and mining is boring just as much as pvp is

[rain whale]

In my time, you would call it a „fan boy“

No matter what they throw at him, he takes it head on.

[nova schooner]

im no fan boy, i just dont get the uproar about something you can chose to do or not

[spiral canyon]

Wow, and they definitely are monitoring this chat. They deleted my posts about the official statement above being illegal or borderline illegal. 🤣

[nova schooner]

and you didnt have to go out and kill 600 hostiles, you just needed to be patient and wait for your dailies to be compelted

we asked them for more communication, we got the roadmap, we got advanced notice of this... you dont have to like it

[hexed kettle]

Alright. We are fans of the game. Its fun. They’re ruining it with greed. Our passion for something we enjoy is being ruined. Thats what this is.

[ornate geyser]

Welcome to the internet...

[ornate geyser]

There's a simple solution...stop playing.

[nova schooner]

will i buy the $100 unlock? no. would i have if it was $50, yes.

[keen citrus]

We didn’t get advanced notice of the cost. Very sneaky, I wouldn’t have bothered building the treasury had I known.

[ashen wharf]

Hopefully irl when you pay for concerts you go to you pay per song

played

[nova schooner]

we did though. the cost will vary each cycle of the treasury event between $5 and $99

[rain whale]

True, but then then the official communication is just „half the truth“. Ops only? Yeah right. More like 10% based on ops, 90% based on previous spendings.

[torpid helm]

The previous price visible for the rod was 5 dollar and got pulled really soon after.. 5 dollar would have been a bargain and LOTS of people would have bought it. They would have made more money that way then they will now

[rain whale]

And this is was pisses me off - not the mechanic itself (which is questionable over all).

[keen citrus]

This is the first time I heard about the cost.

[nova schooner]

from DJ's announcment on March 15:

This has no bearing on the cost of the Desealing Rod for that month. The prices of the desealing rods will vary month to month, AS WILL the contents of the lockbox. Think of these like ticketed events. Some months are slower than others, and this will be up to the discretion of the Arcrunner as to the value, and the contents (which mats/items) are contained within. Some months, rods could be as cheap as $5, and other months it could be 99.99 and any point in between. Buying cheaper rods and waiting for higher value lockboxes will not work as they cannot be stacked, nor carried forward to future lockbox events.

[ornate geyser]

Yeah, for $5, I'd get it.

[rain whale]

But then again: is DJ an official employee of scopely?

[nova schooner]

he is an official content creator and linked in official channels in the game

[rain whale]

I expect those announcements by scopely - same as all the good communication that DJ is doing at the moment.

[ornate geyser]

Everything in the game costs between $5 and $100. Nobody should be surprised by the price.

[rain whale]

Content creator - still not officially scopely

Or shall a journalist start announcing the governments new moves just because he is creating content for the government ?

Or would you expect the government itself to announce their plans?

[nova schooner]

you chose to do that, all you needed to do was your dailies for the treasury event timer

content creators are how we consume announcments for this game. that is a fact

[torpid helm]

That's where you're wrong, if you are doing the daillies normally already you would have it open in a week anyways.
It just costs you your firstborn to open the lockbox

[rain whale]

The thing is, scopely leaves 90% of their official communication up to content creators - which is an easy way to avoid a backlash, because they let CCs deal with it.

And STFC is the only game I know, where CCs make more official announcements, than the actual company behind the game.

Don’t get me wrong - DJ and Rev Dona good job. But it’s just lazy of Scopely.

Hope those guys getting paid for their additional work they are doing on behalf of scopely.

[nova schooner]

im sure its a legal thing, based on their wide ranging regulations where they operate

definatly shady, but is what it is

[rain whale]

Not saying that this method of communication/work is legal or not (I guess it is), but it’s just lazy way of dealing with your community (from scopely)

[ashen wharf]

Well the community managers quit..

[rain whale]

Or differently spoken: the Service Provider let’s some „volunteers“ handling the service, but the bill is paid to the service provider directly.

[abstract gate]

So what is this that just showed up on my screen.

[rain whale]

Guess why 😁

[ashen wharf]

But everyone keeps saying the game is great and stop complaining

I dont understand lol

[nova schooner]

the game is great, its a great community, and tons of fun

[rain whale]

The game itself is good - otherwise people wouldn’t play it. Nevertheless you ain’t got to agree with the business model that scopely is working on.

[ashen wharf]

ive never seen a community so braindrained they dont see server mergers is a sign of dwindling player count

[nova schooner]

our server is too active, wish they'd port some out

[rain whale]

Depends how you set up your game. If you have so called „servers“ it’s normal to have a decrease of players

[abstract gate]

Never mind, figured it out

[ashen wharf]

but a game that is "fantastic" as some say wouldnt have dwindling player counts

[rain whale]

If you have a global server, with all players on you will have a much higher fluctuations than in the closed server environments

Where no new player will start after some time

[torpid helm]

I predict more server merges incoming (saves money on server maintenance).
People will start quitting to play if everything new will be costing money or to long to get if you don't want to pay for it.

[ashen wharf]

So frequent that they have to do mergers every 2-3 months

[rain whale]

Ever heard of real life?

[abstract gate]

Stupid spot for it.

[rain whale]

Some people stop because they have more important things to do at one point

[ashen wharf]

Wouldnt you as a dev make the game less providing then?

[rain whale]

And others just loose interest on the constant grind, even though they enjoy the game or think positive about it

[rain whale]

Nope, what counts for those companies is screentime

[ashen wharf]

but more players more screentime

Lol

[rain whale]

And those who stay, tend to „financially support you“ in zhe long run more likely then short time players leaving after 1 or 2 month

[ashen wharf]

i dont get the concept they are trying to attain

Its backwards i guess i would want more players and progressional fun, not biggest spenders low player count

But short term gains i guess is a bad concept i cant fathom

[hexed kettle]

When a company doesn’t give two 💩s that you’re upset about the decline of their product, it probably is time to go. Glhf

[rain whale]

You just think from a players perspective - they think in business ways 🙂

[hexed kettle]

Maybe i’ll find a game that is actually about having fun in the game, not just making $. What a novel concept huh 😂

[ornate geyser]

This game is instrumented out the Wazoo...they have a very good sense of what drives revenue and what doesn't. If more players spending less money actually worked, they would do that.

[ashen wharf]

Nah

They wouldnt even if it did

battlepass tricked alot of people into that concept

Before battlepass we got more

[rain whale]

Thanks for deleting my comment - but it’s true and deleting it doesn’t make it it go away 😘

[torpid helm]

Was wondering what happened

[cold horizon]

Generally spoken, new content is nice, but i wish next arc wouldn’t have new content, but would concentrate on fixing bugs and improving customer services.

[rain whale]

Erik: Truth hurts - that happend 😀

[torpid helm]

Yeah, seems to be the case..
people being overly sensitive

[rain whale]

If it’s about creating some kind of price/value “world” within a game, I guess you did a good job 😋

[astral bobcat]

This new treasure hut is a bit of an insult, it's like being a prostitute that have to pay for and build the brothel and then have to pay the "customers"!

[manic plinth]

Yeah, not spending on the Treasury that's for sure

[timber shadow]

I can just imagine the board meeting where this idea came up..

Theyre all pushing ideas to drive monitization more, nothing is clicking...

Then comes along the guy that says, lets institute a building they pay to upgrade, that has this vault that they then put playtime into to fill up and then PAY to unlock that as well!

Room goes silent - then the room bursts into cheering, told he's a genius, and the guy gets made a VP...

[rain whale]

Reminds me of Linda from Orange is the new Black 😂😂

😂

99quid per week! Vs 80 euro for call of duty 🙈

[gloomy current]

Can we at least get an interface option to disable the event icon? It's not like there is space to waste on my screen

[dim surge]

Was thinking the same actually. Takes up too much room for something I will never use

[south arrow]

Same spot helps appear

And you don’t have to anything more then ur dailies to unlock it it’s nice for people who do spend

[latent phoenix]

Spend money to spend even more money.

Still doesn't entitle it to take up space that's free most of the time just to be a shortcut for a few people that need to access it exactly once

[serene forum]

sooo,how much?

[dim surge]

Can access it in building no need for oversized shortcut on front screen. Feels bit like bloat ware.

[tawny void]

Not sure what all the fuss is about the new building. I don’t want to spend buying the stuff so I won’t.

[dim surge]

99quid

[dim surge]

Don’t think many of us intend spending on it tbh. It’s the thought process that brought it about and the different planet the devs/power holders seem to be on.

Ah and deleting my Messages - nice

No no no

[finite talon]

😂 😂

[brazen elk]

Oh it’s not a DeStealing Rod?

[stable escarp]

What’s the next pack that we’ll pay for and not get the rewards? Bug fixes? Apparently it was everyone but Scopely’s fault🤷‍♂️

[lilac horizon]

This is absolutely absurd, let’s give the player an event to earn the Right to spend money. No scopley, No!!!!!!!!!!

[hexed sail]

Very negative about the new mechanics. I get that you are in this to make money. But you also have to know the real price of said money, you are asking way too much for bytes in a buggy und unstable experience. I am okay with subscriptions and small spending here and there but you are asking a AAA or two games price for virtual untangible goods, that I also have to unlock with my real invaluable time… you are loosing me

[lilac horizon]

Sir, did you complete your scavenger hunt and fight the bear in the front yard? No. Sorry you can’t buy my house…….

[cinder flame]

Scopley would have gotten 20 in a heartbeat, may have considered 50, but no chance on this cost.

[lilac horizon]

The reason battlepass works is you get about half the rewards for the effort of the events, then the upgrade. This one totally misses the target player base. The grinders are not the big spenders…..

[royal bough]

Not even paying 50 if they ask 20 than I may consider it... but like the vault of latinum they ask to much now..... I mean even in normal pack what cost 20 you got almost more than in these 2

[lunar coral]

Either you grind, you pay, or you do a mix..

But like you said, someone who grinds won't pay 100€

[cinder flame]

Battlespass is about all i get anymore. I'll get the 50 dollar Stella pack every once in a while. Haven't touched a 99 dollar pack in like a year. I'm ok at 39 stockpiling without spending so much

[neon badge]

Remember when they said it was gonna be 5 bucks

Greedy bastards

[cinder flame]

It is the Ferengi way, scopely has fully embraced that roleplay

[lilac horizon]

My opinion, remove the event from the game or make a mechanism to earn the keys in game

Paying should always be the short cut, not the only option

[craggy sundial]

What about making a key the alternative unlock for 4 of the weekly tokens?

[lilac horizon]

That would be a in game mechanics. That would make sense

[neon badge]

So now instead of 5 bucks from practically everyone they get nothing from almost everyone

Genius move

[lilac horizon]

I work to earn my money, not for the opportunity to spend it.

[abstract gate]

The second I saw the 99 euro pack I stopped grinding. Was pretty stoked before, but this is just a bad game mechanic. I am not going to waste my real life time to be allowed to spend in-game. This is madness.

[spring comet]

@keen ledge whoever is doing the pricing for these keys go slap some sense into them

[neon badge]

Even the battle pass with way more stuff is 20

[lost abyss]

You know the top 10-15% of every server is buying these.

[neon badge]

Yeah but they buy everything

[lost abyss]

And because of that, change will never happen.

[neon badge]

Hey they got rid of the raiding penalty

[spring comet]

yup top 10_15% compared to making it battlepass price would have triple if not 4 times as many sales its daft from a business point of view

[neon badge]

So if enough people speak up

[cinder flame]

Idk, for wanting us advance quicker to G5 content, they sure seem bent of pricing us out of the game.

[spring comet]

in before they delete all our posts for complaining about prices

[abstract gate]

The math on that is depressing...

Say 10% of 100 players buys a 100 euro pack, they make 1000. 90% of 100 players buying a 5 euro pack isn't even half of that....

[ashen wharf]

i mean once you get to 40 you are pretty much looking at 2-3 years to get to 50

not including maxing a g4 ship

i should be maxed out on my valdore in about a year

🤣

[ornate geyser]

700 pts in 7 days isn't really what I'd call grinding. Just doing the hostile and swarm dailies gets most of it. The usual weekend events cover the rest.

[restive elm]

suck scopely any excuse is good to create a 99.99 € package

[ornate geyser]

Yeah, that's not true. Scopely is good at revenue generation and they have insane amounts of data on in game behaviour. They're bad at fixing bugs, but they do know revenue.

If selling for way less would generate more revenue, that's exactly what they'd do. Because they're greedy... remember?

[opaque cairn]

Guarantee tons more would buy 49.99 pack compared to 99.99 pack

[lilac horizon]

Which just makes the requirement pointless. No, they are trying to encourage people to play, but then putting a pay wall at the end.

[ornate geyser]

That's just a complicated way of saying Scopley in fact isn't greedy...

[ornate geyser]

Yes, agree. But that's not the claim I was responding to...the claim is this is a grindy thing.

[lilac horizon]

That is grinding for a whale that payed to get to the top.

[shut stag]

So we get to kill 700 reds for the privilege of buying a pack. What a rip off.

[serene forum]

there is no point in arguing, no matter how much or even if there is a paywall, there will always be those who defend scopely way.

[opaque cairn]

Nah just short sighted. Seems more like they want to keep the whales happy and keep it an elite spending game

[serene forum]

scopely is always right, everyone the that says otherwise is wrong, and should stop playing

[ashen wharf]

oh no hes under order 66

Scopely, you're delusional if you think that this will convince me to start spending...

[neon badge]

Can I offer you a vault of latinum?

[serene forum]

starting of mine

ops 41, treasury at 9

[rough dust]

I get 3k for free everyday. Just doing my refines. 😂

[amber prism]

The funniest part is the grinding for the option to pay for it lol

Pick one

[desert laurel]

it's easy enough to fill without grinding

[neon badge]

Complete event...pay to unlock reward....seems fair

[amber prism]

Even seven days of dailies requires at least some grinding

[serene forum]

thats blasfemy,take it back

[amber prism]

Each day does, is the 700 hard to reach over seven days no

But it still 100% requires grinding

To say you can unlock it without grinding is false

Unless somehow I've missed that you can complete dailies without killing a single hostile

[restive elm]

Ferengi are less stingy than scopely

[amber prism]

Been a while since I've done the math

[pseudo radish]

So next battlepass 20 pound to unlock elite and then 99 pound to get the rewards from the battlepass lol

[neon badge]

You can pay someone to play the game!

[celest cloud]

If you do your dailies for 7 days you will manage more than the 14-15 kills per day you need to complete it.

[amber prism]

Can you complete the dailies without grinding out hostiles?

At any level

[ashen wharf]

Battlepass $$ + every 2 weeks loot box $$

[pseudo radish]

@ashen wharf better sell my house and get 2 more jobs 🤣🤣

[desert laurel]

if you go out of the way to kill hostiles to fill this treasury, that's grinding. If you do your dailies and events like a normal person, you didn't grind anything, it came to you naturally

[night crater]

Can Scopely put a kill 700 hostiles pack in the shop for 99 dollar s? I'm to lazy to grind 700 hostiles

[neon badge]

One content creator had the audacity to say f2p shouldn't be mad because "some people spend 30k a year"

[ashen wharf]

lol

[amber prism]

Semantics 😀 to me that's still grinding

[neon badge]

His name rhymes with Bev douche

[ashen wharf]

thats called addiction

[iron star]

Nobody knows what to do with the lockbox! Do you only get the ROD after 7 days? What is Complete final daily goal MS | 100 pts? Where's the guide?

[cunning radish]

kill 700 hostiles.

or do ur dailies and itll unlock during that time

not rocket science read

[neat orbit]

then fork over 100bucks

[scarlet seal]

The lock box and the Rod can go and get shoved where the sun don't shine and Sco can go and spine and swivel on the Rod while they are at it - Another great addition to the game for the whales to get stronger and leave the Krill and Plankton players behind as always

[vernal merlin]

So, I'm not alone in again finding Scopay to be scummy and greedy? Feels good.

[cunning radish]

it's just an extra pack

if u dont want to buy it, dont and move on with ur life

rofl

[lapis harbor]

This rod you need to unlock the treasury where do you get it?

[cunning radish]

I never said it was "good"

[cunning radish]

real $$$

[vernal merlin]

You have to do a week worth of dailies or kill 700 hostiles to unlock the privilege of dropping $99 on the key.

[cunning radish]

I mean if you're doing the dailies anyway which most are, it's a non-issue. but yes it's an unnecessary extra step

[lapis harbor]

Seriously who comes up with these ideas

[cunning radish]

wont be buying the pack anyway so meh

[vernal merlin]

Lmao, yet we all will still continue to play this broke ass game, because we're Trek nerds.

[cunning radish]

i dont actually even care for star trek that much except discovery

[vernal merlin]

Live long and prosper, fellow humans.

[cunning radish]

LOL

i just like the game style

a stargate game like this

wud make me hnngggg

[vernal merlin]

The layout of the game, as far as how it all works together and you can develop your stuff and build relationships with people is pretty satisfying. Then you get the pay to win events, blatant cash grabs and now being offered such a nice feature as the treasury, but then treating it like a dangling carrot. Rough stuff.

[cunning radish]

https://tenor.com/view/okay-ok-jlaw-jenniferlawrence-thumbsup-gif-4958409

[vernal merlin]

😆

🤣

[cunning radish]

I mean at this point, yeah.

Scopely ain't givin u nothin for nothin.

[uncut beacon]

The format to Scopely releasing new content:

Patch notes that don't include everything that's been patched

One of the primary mechanics will be a mechanic that makes no sense and nobody wants (i.e. treasury tax)

All the servers get laggy

Mandatory cashgrab by SLB's for new stuff, and extensive armada requirements

SLB scoring gets broken by new mechanics (like Lat Spend), every player on Discord gets pings left, right and centre from Ultimate DJ explaining the corrective actions, trying to put a positive spin and polish a turd

New stuff doesn't work, like Lockbox packs for ops 51+, more turd polishing pings from Ultimate DJ

Generally everyone gets a compensation chest each ark for the programming mess and lack of testing, whilst we're all wondering why we play this game lol

[vernal merlin]

^^^^ ---> This exactly...

[lean ridge]

THX for nothing, scopely at its best

[midnight harbor]

Their newest project manager who swore to pimp the game Sales out of thin air.
I wonder 😅 is it working?
I mean with all those who left the game, adding crazy prices, increase the lag massively and multiply the bugs..

[vernal merlin]

@prime flax Need you to screen cap the last few hours of all these forums, blow them up, laminate them, frame them and then walk into their offices and present them in a hot garbage fire whilst giving them the middle finger. That's about how they're treating their player base.

[midnight harbor]

You don't. You have to pay for the rod lol.
Otherwise you won't open the treasury- regardless of the 700 hostiles finished.
And obviously it's 100 bucks. Because why not.
Powered by $copley

Scopay™️

[midnight harbor]

Indeed

[neat orbit]

i wish theyd add an event to use up or exchange any unused past event tokens.

[lofty sedge]

Well as usual Scopely has managed to make you work to earn something you then have to turn around and pay to get.

[fiery star]

I could've sworn they gave us a sealing rod when they dropped the initial treasury update. And I'm not the only one who noticed it disappeared ... Wtf?

[cunning radish]

…no

[karmic vault]

Maybe you're thinking of the $5 pack that was in the store briefly? There were no gift rods, you gotta pay to get rodded.

[midnight harbor]

Basically they make it available randomly and it doesn't stay long. Probably that's what the 5 bucks pack was

[lost abyss]

Nope

[dawn wedge]

It shows up immediately after you get your 700 points and lasts for 3 days. Mine is $100

[hexed kettle]

What I don't understand, is this game is cake to make and code compared to other full PC games out there, yet with all this insane income they can't even do basic things properly. Think what a WoW expansion takes, look at the income streams, and I cannot begin to understand why Scopely can't do far better with the basic graphics and coding they need to.

[cunning radish]

True dat

[dapper drum]

99.9% profit margin

[inland galleon]

This is just another 100 dollar pack with extra steps

[graceful shard]

The pack is 1.5X a research pack with 15k recruit tokens and some diodes. So if you are going to spend money and you need dil and crys/gas/ore it’s got a very good value in comparison

But only if you are spending on $99 packs every once in a while

[lost abyss]

Because they don’t have to, they’ve got people addicted to buying packs.

[small basin]

This treasury event is a complete joke and waste of time and money.

Why grind 700 hostiles and have the right to pay for the same rewards at the same price that you can get in the treasury upgrade pack.

[cunning radish]

Well get used to it because it comes around every month now

🤣

[small basin]

Yea I guess my spend just got cut down to the bp 20 pack. I can’t stand getting ripped off. Lol

Oh maybe I should buy that vault of lat too

[cunning radish]

I don’t even bother with that these days

[abstract gate]

Why not .. don’t you want jelly ? Don’t you like the lat vault ?

How about the rod?

[cunning radish]

im about to have the jelly free in 1.5 hours

doubtful knowing scopely lol

[small basin]

We can all dream right

I think it would be cool if they put it to a sliding pay rate. So those people that unlock the vault on day 1 pay the lowest rate then it gradually gets higher the longer it takes to unlock.

[untold pendant]

Does anyone know if the ops 32 lucky event boxes contain blueprints for level 34 ships?

[dapper drum]

that BP pack is still a rip off

scopely offered 💩 on a stick and people bought it

now all their packs are way overpriced and undervalued

making the BP seem like its worth something but it actually still a rip off

[wintry cypress]

They don't

[dapper drum]

like going to a butcher shop and seeing a salad for 100$ but you could go across the street to the whole foods and get one for 20$

but you are still overpaying for salad

[barren hemlock]

The Rare/Epic Armada chests start giving Ops 34 ship BPs at Ops 32, guessing that it what you are talking about

[wintry cypress]

Thought he meant this as "lucky event box" 🤔

[untold pendant]

That is the box I meant, yes. I was hoping it would behave the same as the armada boxes, but I guess not

[small basin]

Fair enough but if you enjoy the content you should be willing to support it. It’s like how much is a movie ticket your paying for the entertainment value. Same here

[wintry cypress]

Then you guess correctly. Only rares inside

[untold pendant]

Thanks for the info, good to know! I'm considering going from 29->33 for the box, since I heard 33 has the blueprints, but going to 32 would have been preferable haha. Much to think about

[hexed kettle]

This is more like a movie that makes you pay $50 every ten minutes 🤣

[wintry cypress]

Always depends on how you play the game.
I personally only skipped 20-23 because the ships you get there are practically useless 😅

[small basin]

I’m not sure I agree there but this treasury event certainly feels that way.

[hexed kettle]

I've spent $250 on this game, more than any video game I've ever spent on, and I'm still basically a freetoplay scrub. Its crazy.

[small basin]

Yea I usually spend 200/ month. But again I’m considered f2p on my server

[hexed kettle]

Compare that to a game with a real graphics engine requiring many graphics designers, hours upon hours of content and storyline that we pay $50-80 for on launch.

[small basin]

No I get it but you also usually get upgrade packs within those as well.

Don’t get me wrong I think they are trying to milk people for every last dollar and there’s a better business plan out there for sure.

[hexed kettle]

Well... I don't know if there is a better business plan. Their business is raking in the cash. Hand over fist. Their financials are absolutely ridiculous to look at. One of the most profitable gaming companies of all time.

Its just that as a gamer, not all games should be evaluated on their profitability and ability to milk the people that play them. There is room to make a nice profit while still making a fun game that focuses on player enjoyment and accessibility.

Some of the best video games of all time are actually just passion projects from people who made the gaming experience they wanted to make, and charged a fair price to also profit from their hard work. Stardew Valley is an incredibly great story.

STFC hooked me in because I love Star Trek, and I like resource management and builder games. What we got is a machine designed to maximize profits, with practically zero thought given to player satisfaction and playability. There's no list of your ships anywhere. The inventory pages are a giant mess of miscellaneous items you can't sort. They heard the feedback about officer crews being annoying and decided to give us presets... that we had to pay for! The whole thing is just a giant disappointment, when compared to what it could have been. Hand this opportunity to a game developer who is also a Trekkie, and we would've had a really great game that could make the company some nice profits too. Instead we get a literal Ferengi nightmare. Just such a waste of an opportunity to create something great.

[cunning radish]

you dont have to pay for presets

i have 2 and havent paid for any of them

?

[small basin]

I think if the event had a tiered system for what you paid based on when you unlocked the vault they could rake back up the brinks truck. Let’s say it’s $5 on the first day for the pass you will get maybe 30 people to buy it for everyone the way it is now. Then let’s say it goes to $10 on day 2. Still fairly reasonable offer. If you get 10-15 per one that pays the $100. Then day 3 it jumps to $20 just need a 5-1 to make the profitability point. Then day four and five it’s $50 then you need 2-1 Then days six and seven are for the slackers and make them pay the full price. How many people would take advantage of the event early. More time spent in the game grinding is more opportunities to have a player decide to buy a different pack to help them get the treasury pack. Seems like a simple business model to me but what do I know I only work in production.

[torn crescent]

$20 for the BP monthly and I don’t always pay for that. The few times I spent $100 for a pack I just jumped past 1 wall to smack into another.

[shut moon]

to me the second you have to work for it negates the $$$

the fact that $20 BP gives 1000000000x more than this does for $100 means in my opinion it's a garbage event with no reason to exist. no need to even bother with it ever.

[formal birch]

Basically, i think when any new good Startrek game will arrive people will move there, it is not a question if but when, even for ,,mobile game,, im sure lots of developers when see what can scopley can do with fun base Startrek,, somebody makes a similar game and picks cheaper price model

[scenic kernel]

The problem is getting the license from CBS, and they aren't much better than scopely to be honest

[lunar coral]

2 presets... Second one months later

[tribal monolith]

Am I the only one wondering if pay a pack to unlock treasure rewards worth it? Some dili, g3,4,5,recruit credits and optical credits...it should be more I suggest or no pack.

[wintry cypress]

Not worth it

[scenic kernel]

imho, it is a better pack than most. Only question if if you want to spend or not.

[wintry cypress]

It's comparable to ultra research pack
Both ain't worth it.

You get the same or more stuff in battle pass for 20 bucks

[tribal monolith]

I did , sadly

[pulsar field]

Would only be worth it, when you pay once and ist open for every upcoming event for you

[scenic kernel]

for me it is research pack, with 12k ultra recruit, twice the amount of lat, rare mats, 50% more UC, upgrade for the treasury... so much more, worth my money? still no

[wintry cypress]

Nothings worth the money technically because you pay for something you don't even own 🤷

[scenic kernel]

that apply to a lot of things... streaming services, movie theater, real theater... it is all about how much entertainment you get for the money

[wide mural]

Add trit scopely it's the bane of my game tbh

[dapper drum]

I don't care about the treasury and its crap rewards

I care about the ugly icon I'm forced to look at after finishing off alliance helps

no point finishing them off to have valuable screen space back now that its there

same goes for the stuipd store icon, you can access store from anywhere using the lat icon so thats another waste of HUD space

[clear temple]

it's a Telethon timer not a game mechanic.

[wide mural]

It will dissappear after the timer runs out

[south arrow]

If you buy packs it’s great if you don’t the treasury building abilities are still great so why complain?

[restive inlet]

I think the way of communication is totally wrong, they praised it as a super new exciting feature, but not at it is: a new money pack. I‘m sure for many of us would be ok, if they describe it in the right way.
BTW new gameplay feeling or features would be nice anyways. But that will never change for sure

[robust vapor]

.. you don't have to grind hostiles, completing the final dailies missions should award 100 points. You get a week to do it in..
And it was advertised as paid for..

[amber prism]

Sure , it was not advertised as jump through these hoops and then you can pay for it

Whether these hoops are large or small it's still funny

[robust vapor]

Complete dailies and kill hostiles, then purchase from the store. It's exactly as they said.
Personally I'm just going to ignore the paid aspect and just take the bonuses from the building.

[white light]

Same. Not putting any more money into their greedy asses. The bonuses from the building are enough.

[proven bluff]

Typical Dopley. Take something that they could sell for $20 (or even $50) and have everyone be really happy and buy it (and make a ton of money) or try to sell it for $100 and totally piss of their player base.

Easy choice for Dopley. Screw 90% of your customers every time

[pale kestrel]

again, we're paying (if one chooses) for virtual, intangible items at high prices for our time and effort. and from a player's perspective, it is robbery at the suggested price of $99 if you've ever spent anything in this game. I think there'd be better profits, if you're going to charge, at $25-$35 as more players would then buy more often.

with the current pricing, it's like scopely is trying to grab what they can before a ship sinks rather than working to keep it afloat and sailing smoothly.

[abstract gate]

There are players who spent 100k usd or higher and I worry for them

What if scopely decides one day “ we are closing down stfc” 😳🤔

What will happen to the 100k of the usd

[warm quest]

Why worry for them. If they have the disposable income and want to spend it on the game then more power to them.

[pale kestrel]

it will go to the other games they have their name on

[abstract gate]

Ain’t that the truth haha 🤣

Yep .. but think of it just crazy spent at least for me

[chilly venture]

My PVP system is supposed to be No'Mat, but it seems that it is still Ash'Tor that is the lucrative system...

[bronze bloom]

What is the pvp system for ops 45?

No mat isn’t it

[nocturne kelp]

Same for me

[peak cradle]

Ops 41 is nomat but i don’t get points for it

[vestal light]

Speculation event for feesha not scoring right for pvp?

In No'mat

[elder gyro]

So tired of seeing this junk

[timber wind]

Mats event this weekend and what is it supposed to be exactly?

[chilly venture]

They hotfixed the event from Ash'Tor to No'Mat for me

[elder gyro]

I didn't get my mats for para bellum

[bronze bloom]

@desert laurel : what’s the PvP system for feesha with ops45? And if it’s Ashtor it doesn’t count

[small basin]

My suggestion earlier in the thread was to have it tier pricing so day 1 unlock $5 day 2 $10 day 3 $20 day 4 & 5 $50 and day 6 & 7 $100. Give the grinders a deal and make more money. Simple economics.

[proper cave]

I finished every bp point event including today but only have 239k if I finished the next 4 cdays I would only get 60k more which isn't enough for the BP points event

[small basin]

You missed a day somewhere I’ve got 252k

[solemn tusk]

Same 252.5k

[solemn tusk]

However it’s not always the same amounts. Some times it’s 20k points some time 15k points. And I’m sure stuff in between

You can still see yesterday’s. It was worth 20k points.

[zinc sun]

Is thé trésor key permantly activ when i buy it ?

[solemn tusk]

Todays is only worth 15k points

[solemn tusk]

No

[naive kiln]

I know that this is a ferengi arc but maybe there might be too much mining events.

[zinc sun]

If no i do not buy thé trésor key

[solemn tusk]

It’s the same as every other pack in pay store

[naive kiln]

Also i think that pricing the vault at 100$ misses the mark. all this does is be a replacement for a standard 100$ pack that people who already guys would buy. If someone buys 3 packs a month, this wont get them to buy 4, they will just buy 3 with the vault as one and get more stuff. This literally has no incentive for non spenders to start spending

[zinc sun]

Constructions recherches are permanetly

[solemn tusk]

Yes.

But you don’t pay for those.

[zinc sun]

There are three prices 99.99 and 49.99 and 19.99

[rough frost]

Il y a une clé par événement, donc tu dois payer à chaque événement pour récupérer les récompenses

[solemn tusk]

Resealing rod price will vary depending on spending of said purchaser. If you no spend ever you’ll see 4.99 pack. Players like me will only see 99.99 pack

That said 4.99 pack doesn’t have same amount of goods in it.

Think of it this way. Treasury is nothing more than a pack. Just has a little tiny bit more value

I did my own comparison

First set are treasury bottom pic is normal pack in store

[chilly venture]

Ultra research is a better comparison based on content.

[naive kiln]

thats my point though, it doesnt really intice additional incremental spending

just replacement spending

[chilly venture]

Basically mine is 1.5x ultra research, with diodes and recruit a bonus
