Reward for Special Operation (Discussion)

SO_reward_new_2_en.jpg

Despite the beginning of the offensive on the Alien sectors, two incredibly powerful Alien ships continue to attack the border sectors: Destroyer and Defiler. Stopping them is a tall order, but with your help we can definitely handle them!

Yeah! Wait, that’s not for me. Too bad. 

Nice payout.
Wish fast success for those alien-destroyer!

Nice payout but no thanks. Last I heard you need 12 rank 11 destoyers nowadays to get a good time on that.

I think this game mode should get a range buff to ALL weapons. Most ship roles in the game are useless with most of them not having the range to do good damage and stay alive.

People are not stupid. They will abuse this.

Steps are simple: Keep some time left, but still be 1st on the Leaderboard, so that next week you can improve your time by 5 or 10 seconds, to get another reward.

If you ask me, it would be fairer, to just add a timer and requirements, like no deaths, with included HD video and game logs, just to ensure fair play.

But if they are “weekly” doesn’t that mean they are reset at the end of the week?

No, you have to beat previous record next week to get a reward

 

Nerfed the loot system and this is their answer? Only a small handful of people have a chance, the rest of us have no chance. After what was done to me I am not allowed to participate or arrange any such teams.

This is just a small sample of the loot trash I have been getting. This is what I have played that’s relevant to R15 Spec ops. I have a premium license, and all dlcs. Makes no difference. Also purple loot drops. I  only bother when the drops are purple, but last few days its been pointless. Iridium or credits, both are useless to me. If I have to choose between 19 iridium or 500k plus credits…

And this is relevant to this discussion, because?  

Technically he wrote about the reward for special operation. :slight_smile:
But it’s really a beat the best score ever contest? Wow that will be really hardcore. o.o
Thought it would at least reset every week…

It never did ![:D](<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/006j.png “:D”) It was always “who has the best time monday morning gets GS”. But previously it was 1500GS/pilot, now it’s 3000/pilot ![:)](<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/001j.png “:)”)

that implies that top record would consecutively grant you 1500 gs every week (if no one beats it), it was not the case - we were only gettign a reward once upon beating a record, and if nobody beat our record in next weeks we did not get any rewards again until we topped own record

ooops I should use a more specific wording… sorry!

Looks like NASA will have to revisit the leaderboards once everyone gets a R14 destroyer.

we only got like 6 Siriuses so far (and 2 of them are Doom and Cinnamon ![;)](<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/002.png “;)”) ), i think people are not farming hard enough!

Glad to see you seen my connection.

My gripe with spec ops is it is useless now. This gold tease seems to be their replacement. I dont feel this gold will make up for the lack of rewards to play the mode. 3500 gold buys ~3 5x containers which give one one electrum. Not really worth the effort.  I can no longer ask people in global to join me. The rewards have been lackluster, so pushing for an alternate way to form a wing is not worth it. Since I can no longer coordinate I have nearly stopped playing the game.

I would prefer if niripas would stop replying or comment to anything I write. As I see it as a form of baiting.

Get good? I am rarely in a team that loses a round of spec ops. Whether I go as a random or in a team. My issue is the loot has become trash. Maybe its not trash for everyone, but i rarely get anything other than credits since the update. Gold means nothing to me to me unless its a large amount. I just wasted $40 on gold this month alone. I was gonna spend another $100 to unlock the new desie, but no point now. can’t share my joy.

I would rather play for a large cache of materials or an entire ship, than get gold. You get so little for the gold. Not that I would be in the top 10. I have a life, not enough time for that.

I guess you are not retired anymore if you are posting here… " Former CEO of NASA and retired Star Conflict pilot."
