    Unknown Reaper Fleets lvl 60-78 (pts range 30,000 - 152,460)


    Really? Every Event these have been devalued another 10k points per level. Typically these end up being the only fleets I can do as everything is OP to even new punisher fleets. Why is lvl 60 going from 40k to 30K? Guarantee they are not getting easier.



    obviously we planned to force you coin and unless you coin , you would never get better game experience -------kixeye

    Another event where now I'm just gonna get on during stage 3, hit the highest lvl event fleet once in the morning and repair while I'm at work and once before I got to bed and that's even if my sector or any neighbor sector can get to stage 3....

    Yes this game is insane now. I built a punisher immediately when I got the xeno disruptor cannon and before ship was completed it was already obsolete because exal armor and barrage hives were introduced. So have to immediately refit a just built ship.

    Doomrooster and CS Chris, thank you for the information and interaction despite the toxic environment.  Hopefully this event is better than community members' crystal balls have predicted.  Challenge is welcome as long as it is reasonable.

    So the event is this.

    Start at a range that's too long for our ships and take damage to close in.

    Recommended tactics: Move in a straight line and wait.

    Once we take damage and close in, we take little damage and just sit there shooting.

    Recommended tactics: Sit and wait.

    Afterwards, return to base and repair.

    Recommended tactics: Coin so you don't wait

    ACCURATE AS ****!!!

    If you decide to make the only way for players to get a blueprint is force them to crash fleets into harvesters many of your players are going to leave this game.

    I have all game blueprints, but I doubt I have any fleets that can do these new fleets. I was unable to hit anything higher than level 85 in the last Mobilization event and from all the 80+ Hive fleets I hit. none of them dropped any patterns

    These fleets are made to give players maximum unavoidable damage so they have to coin repairs. 

    Keep this up and I will also be looking for a new game to play myself
    What Mr Topgear said lol, get rid of some that dead weight in headquarters because if they think there saving this game by runni..........aaaaaahhhhh your not trying to save the game, your shutting up shop soon, well any developers who truly love this game who work at kix (and not being paid enough) make your own "version" give us a refit bay, better coin rates, lower build times, basically all of the most requested things from the players, and I'll play your game, lol, honestly Kix you think we all say what we say because were a bunch of whiners, no we say it because the fundementals of this game were interesting, fun and very accessible, as it stands today this game becoming more of a chore than anything else.

    If you are genuinely trying to save the game, do the unthinkable and open up dialogue with the players!!!, because if money is the problem this is not the way to go about it, and its only a matter of time before even your super coiners leave, if there are no players to beat up on why would they stay.

    I would say your priority should be to get new players in and get them to stay by making it easier to lvl up or by having some sort of tier system, maybe a new server and when enough players have reached a certain lvl, merge the servers and watch the carnage unfold and the coins come in, rinse and repeat ive seen lesser games do this with alot of success and last but not least give us players who have stuck with you a refit bay, i think we deserve it.

    @TopGear thanks for the work you put in to the ship calculator even though thanks to kix we hardley ever get to build half the fleets we design, the SC sure is fun though.

    The devs for this game are complete amateurs. I swear, you pulled one guy from the team that made The Sims, four guys from Farmville, and five guys from Coin Dozer... Freaking n00bs.

    Yes okay, comfirmed rip vega conflict 400 dps weapons haha "barrage harvester" 95 what are you thinkin even normal barrage fleets couldnt be defeated xDD only punishers or decimators can do these new harvesters. Rip all manifold cruisers for harvester killing this is Xeno conflict.

    Try to fit a ship with those Xeno Clusters in the shipcalc. You will see that it cant be done unless you have highly marked up ships unless you want to go completely glass. This due to mass. How many have highly marked up decimators? Also getting the blueprints will probably require highly marked up decimators. Scarce few will be able to even get these blueprints considering how few could do barrage hives last event without 200 coin repairs+.

    I was a coiner . until you decide to scale back these events and ,reinstate point payouts to as they were. not change them every single event. I am boycotting coining my 200 bucks a month i spend on 3 accounts. effective immediately i am boycotting coining and if you other mid coiners like me and heavy coiners are smart ya need to do same .. go 1 month without coining then they will listen to us for a change.

    but how many parts will it take to complete the blueprint?    6?  8? 10? more?

    The Xeno Cluster Missile blueprint is 8 pieces, which are guaranteed drops from boss targets (assuming the qualifications outlined in the original post are met).

    You know what? Make them reusable credits!!! That will at least stop the coiners from having 2-10 coined decimator fleets with the frickin bullshit...

    they also do not seem to think ahead, it would actually be more greedy to make a good game. you make a good game, people will play it, and STAY. they seem to be short-sighted in their greed. so if you stop coining, they may think you are done forever, and just pull the plug on life support

    Do these boss targets sit still or do they move like the other harvesters before?

    if the harvesters move towards you thats actually better for you. Less time in the missile range. But i doubt we are that lucky.

    Exactly I guess it's harvesters shooting "f u" missiles at us... while running AWAY. OF course it has to run away, if it runs towards us it gets in our range pretty quick, and kix doesn't want that...

    You are forgetting the other options, It will charge at you but now its "fu" missiles have no minimum range.
           Those ships are silly the people would need to be the size of ants to use them.

    They practically have no maximum range either! As soon as you spawn you have about 300m of movement before you're getting blasted with their ultra high DPS weapons. Guarantees coin repairs or suffer the 18hr repair you will inevitably earn as an attempt to kill the **** thing.

    Thanks Kixeye for giving me a reason not to coin anymore. You have made it clear it is just a waste of time. I am just going to play with what i have and forget your power creep rubbish.
