Regular ships got special modules with some recent updates, so why should destroyer DLC packs be impossible?

 

Anyway, it would be nice to know, when we will see the replacement PvE tasks for electrum.

Unless this going down the same way as it was with the Alien tech event and those Xeno-Expert containers. ![o_O](<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/007.png “o_O”)

I highly doubt they would make them DLC ![:007_2:](<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/007_2.png “:007_2:”) ![:007_2:](<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/007_2.png “:007_2:”). Lol no way they would throw the potentially strongest ships in the game into DLCs, and if they did they would be absurdly expensive which wouldn’t fly…They are coming back don’t worry lol, the Devs are just waiting to let us know

I’m fine with the current pvp task, plus they are easy and fast to do so no need to push them in pve. Or eventually a bonus task in pve or os…

Wat

ALL ships will get a special module and some love. It’s not only premiums.  Special modules have nothing to do with DLC

So you are basically saying “developers will not give us free  R14 destroyer. We will have to get some materials by ourselves.” Well - I think that’s the point. 20 Neodium is so easy to get now that it just needs a little thinking how to get it. I had similar feeling that Neo would be bottleneck for me so I checked some possibilities of gaining more. I will not say what I did or how many neodium I got in last 5 days, cause people will accuse me of something, but I can just tell you it’s a way more than 20. 

Cin did tell us that we would have more than enough materials from the event to make a R14 Jericho destroyer in time during that phase. As I said based on the numbers we have now, that wouldn’t be true, that’s it, simple.

I don’t even look for neo, just have them. But does electrum drop yet?

Cin said it would be added to OS later before, but unless they didn’t mention it in the patch notes, and I haven’t been lucky enough to get it, it’s not in OS yet. They did put it in the loot search after a mission for rank 9, 12, and 14, if you use a max rank ship of one of those ranks.

This. Personally ive been doing mostly neodium mission for star marathon. If i sound like a white knight defending the devs, its because i find too much people whine, a lot. Most of what you do phoenix is whinning, and you are agressive…you may not know, but there are different ways of saying things. I agree on many points you say, but you fail on what i just stated. Why do i feel people whine too much? cause ive obtained almost all i needed by the hard way: no license, no GS purchase, no DLCs…and i did not killed myself in the process. Now i got a lot of GS cause i work for it by being a translator (that actually requires work), and i still have time to play SC and farm the things i need, do my real life stuff, etc.

I’m not whining, and why is it your duty to police people you think are whining? By going after so called whiners, you’re the one being rather aggressive. Please do everyone a favour, and just ignore my posts (there’s a forum option for that), and other “whiners” posts if they bother you so much, by going after us so called “whiners,” you’re just creating, or adding hostility, not alleviating it.

Unfortunately both of those tasks should count only in PvP mode. That they work in Co-op was unintentional, sorry ![:(](<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/003j.png “:(”) That was considered  bug and now electrum task is fixed.

Crud, I was really liking being able to do it in Co-Op. Once you’re in a destroyer in PvP, you are just some huge target for everyone, as even when there isn’t a related event, everyone just seems to love focusing on any destroyers in sight, plus you used to need just five kill/assists from what I remember, now it’s fifteen, so double crud to that change.

Anyway, where are the PvE tasks for R14 destroyer resources then? And when will the other broker task gets “fixed”?

That’s true, Cin did say there would, or at least could be PvE tasks for that event. Unless he was bundling it in with the other event, and was referring to getting the new destroyer weapon.

hahaha sure. Now you are the polite person, now you are asking for others to not be agressive…lets just keep the forum as it is, full of whinning and insulting, cause thats fine, we dont need people to point thats bad and ask for moderation cause THAT IS being aggressive. Maybe hostile people should stop being aggressive in the first place so we dont need to put them in line and create more hostility through the process?

Ask everything for free, without any flexibility to reconsider what cinnamon meant? maybe cin thought the bottleneck was electrum? cause weve been told for a long time that R14 destroyers were comming, we had a lot of time and ways to get more than the necessary parts to craft it without considering the rewards we are getting now through the broker (excluding electrum ofc)…if you care so much about getting a destroyer, why didnt you make an effort to farm some materials back then? why dont you do it now? Excuse me but i think thats whinning.

Well, i’m not going to grind for hours through Fire Support on my R9 ship to hope to get enough electrum every day to manufacture one R14 destroyer in time, while PvP players get those resources handed to them through tasks. And i’m not going to throw money at the lottery containers to keep up either.

Btw. before they fixed this “bug”, i was really thinking about buying more lincense days with the current sale going on… not anymore. ![:005j:](<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/005j.png “:005j:”)

And by this you mean what exactly? changing from 5 or 10 to 15 in any known language is called “increase”

Changing it from 15 to 0 for a PvE player is not called an “increase” in any language i know.

It’s more or less the Alien tech event all over again, with PvE players drawing the short straw on the rewards.

Why can’t they provide equal tasks for PvE players with every event? Is the PvP part of SC that deep in troubles, that they actually have to force every single player into the PvP queues to make it work now?

As mentioned before, the Star Marathon task is a good example on how it should work with all those daily tasks, where the player can choose if he wants to accomplish them through PvE or PvP. I’m not asking for something special here, i’m just asking for equal PvE tasks…

About that deployment mission thing where sending destroyers will give you Electrum, is that an event thing, or a new feature? Looking at the news posting for it, it didn’t indicate it was some limited time thing.

 

Now if it is a new feature, any chance the related interface will be changed to make it more convenient to add in destroyers, or other types of ships? Then maybe it could give a specific material based on the type of ship sent, with it giving more units for higher ranks. Just crunched the numbers for destroyers, to make all nine, you’d need 880 raw Neo, 680 raw Ber, and 720 raw Elec, by the end of the second phase, assuming the same sort of units as in the first, with the increased Elec rewards, we could have over 1000 units of raw Elec, which would be some 150% of the Elec to make one R14 destroyer, while the event may not even have given enough of the other two materials to make one destroyer by the end of the second phase. By the end of the third phase, again assuming the same sort of numbers, we could have almost 2000 units of raw Elec from the event, and deployment, almost enough to make all three R14 destroyers, but only enough of the other materials to make about one, and a half R14 destroyers. Expanding the deployment to at least give the option to get other destroyer materials would be most helpful, as they’re pretty rare drops in OS, while other materials aren’t too bad to get in OS, or even overly abundant, especially by comparison.

Listen, people that do as you do, trying to police how other people post are the ones that really stir up the most trouble in forums, as it just riles people up, when they may have just wanted to give their feedback, and that’s it (that is the whole point of these threads), only for it to turn into some messy flame war when someone comes in to complain about said feedback because they were “whining” according to them. People will post their views on how things are done in a game, trying to go after what people say if you don’t like it, isn’t helping. What I said was based on the facts at hand, if you don’t like it, whatever. Since it looks like you’re not going to do the right thing, I’ve just popped you on my ignore list, which has you, and no one else on it, as this sort of white knighting has, as I said been a trend for you, and I am rather tired of it.

Can get up to eight a day with the deployment one, figure that would be going on a total of 80ish days, that’s 640, add that to the amount you got so far before they “fixed” the daily event mission, that should be enough to make one by the end of the three phases. Then that deployment thing might not be an event, it may be a new thing, maybe. Just hope they don’t “fix” the other daily event mission too…

 

Also I’ve done the same in various games, including this one, if I like where they seem to be going, I’ll throw some money at them. Although when they then turn around, and do stuff like this R14 destroyer event, with the whole “buy now!” thing they have going by constantly reminding us of the time limited aspect of R14 destroyers, it also makes me facepalm, and kinda regret giving that money.

As you can see from prior posts Ironquest made, Ironquest doesn’t like the “fixed” Electrum daily event mission that must be done in PvP missions now, not PvP, or Co-Op, and won’t be doing them, so 0 is less than 15 for him/her.

You will have enough to build one destroyer for free - but I won’t be able to craft Sirius - you can wait for it to be craftable again - but i dont wanna - you can buy the remaining parts, sure as hell beats buying them all from scratch - but i dont want to invest money - then choose one of the other two - but i dont wanna - then what do you want - more free stuff - okay here you have more free stuff - but it’s pvp only - yes missions are pvp only and it takes 10-15 minutes to do them - but i want missions for pve coz me no like pvp - but it’s a destro for free - NO! NOW I WONT PLAY, F U, F U TOO, AND YOU, F U ESPECIALLY… week after event* when will the destros unlock? - in few months - buys one from scratch in few month but could’ve lowered the price months ago at least*

Now, we, the healthier population here, don’t need this conversation for the gazillionth time or any other versions of this kind.

Too many players don’t wish to play pvp and that’s why they “fixed” the mission to be pvp only in my opinion, because there are not enough victims for the vampires  ![:007_2:](<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/007_2.png “:007_2:”)

I would prefer doing the missions through PVE/coop too, but devs made their call…and for such awesome reward theres no second thought on going into a mode i dont like.

People is often unaware of their behaveour: the offender doesnt know he is being offensive. There are many ways of stating your point of view, and you dont seem to know another way that doesnt includes flame (have you seen g4borg posts? he has ideas “against the devs” but does it in a proper way, its nice to argue with him). If you really think that the one identifying destructive critics are the ones causing the troubles, then you really need to look into yourself and be self critical. And yes, the point of replying all of this is to affect this kind of persons and their posts so they notice why they are wrong, obiously hearing about your poop is never nice, but you gotta face the reality. I will keep replying even if you ignore me, cuse i dont reply just for you, its a public place you know…and call me white knight and all you want, that only reinforces what ive stated above. This community has got used to be agressive, and because something is “normal” (in the sense of used repeatedly) doesnt mean its right.

hahaha SC forum in a nutshell. You got it right ![:)](<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/001j.png “:)”)

Since there’s no forum feedback thread for it, I’ll mention it here. Please don’t do these special ops missions for weekend events in the future, or if you do, at least make it so both types work. Since the one with the annoying gravity bit (which is not the defiler) is the current one, and has been since yesterday, I’ve completed it multiple times, at different tiers, was alive at the end, in the top few performers in the mission, but the event task still is not marked complete for me. Last time you used special ops in a task, either worked, but that doesn’t seem to be the case this time, when we can’t pick which we can do at the time, and they aren’t even always open, that doesn’t seem like a good method for an event.

Different people, have different tastes. Like in another game I’ve been following, some people wanted more units of a resource made available, so kept posting to that effect, then when the publisher added more, other people kept posting to complain that they added more. Can’t please everyone, especially when there’s no room for choice.

I generally don’t do PvP missions, as they don’t appeal to me. Although if there’s some event, and I really want the reward, I’ll bite the bullet to get it done, would still prefer being able to do it in co-op though.

Both types of SpecOps should alternate on daily basis except Sunday, when they should alternate during the day.

I was just pointing out the one and the same comment that kept appearing over and over again and i got tired of it. Some people just don’t know how to be objective or give constructive feedback. I generally like the things that are happening right now and have barely any complaints. The PvE rant tho is beginning to annoy me, since there are ways to make a poll or similar to ask devs for a change, they will give it to ya, like they did with electrum but there must be some kind of a cooperation at least and not tantrums.
