Been away awhile.

After taking a break from PG the last month, I was less than thrilled upon my return. I found my whole guild had quit the game. I also remembered why I took a break, after grinding 2 days and only getting 3 bars of XP. Having no guild I was left to grind on the Hive. Even with a 3 hour and a 30 day XP mod I was unable to get anywhere level wise.

I have followed the instructions, done missions, but nothing is working. I am level 73, have a defender ship in the bay, but cant even put weapons on it. I then see a Mizar ship past me in 2 days. I play alot and as noted I am a noob. That was the great advice I received when I asked for help. I am a noob.

As my mods expire, I have not been renewing them. I do better without the mods actually. While I cant level, I can grind. But would like to get onto the ring planets without selling my soul to a clan to do it. The few clans left are infested with haters and drama queens, which is not what I came here for.

I tried to start my own clan. Buy my own jump ship and do my own thing. But for some reason the Clan button is not letting me. Since I have been in the same clan for several months, I did not expect to be the problem.

My last experience is that of game harassment. There appears a favoritism of certain players. Im a new player. If Im being run off the game, so is others. I dont understand the thought put behind this running off new players. Im not just talking of a single player, but whole guilds dedicated to running people off.

I encourage the makers of the game to introduce a new baby ship and take it through the steps to see if they dont agree with me. With thousands of online games available, this game is getting smaller.

As my premium expires, my game will soon follow if things I have shared dont change. I dont mean to tell you how to run a game. But know there is many who abused the coc to get there R85 status. While I spend hours and dollars and get no where. These are a few of the problems I have noted.

Game Over.

PS. Reporting abuses of the COC or what ever its being called gets a curt response about taking video and such. So reporting anything has been a waste of time also.

Have you finished the HIve sm's in order to unlock Sirius?
You cannot buy Jumpship if it's not unlocked.

About reports, they do work, you don't need a video, but screenshots done with the instructions, added Timestamp (F11) of different situations where you can prove there has been breaches of the CoC (Code of Conduct).

Every case of reports what provides enough proof will be handled, no one is being ignored.

Level 73, and you are a Hive player. Try to go to Gazica Harvesters for xp, r66, or Hive the lowest,
if you feel you are bugged somehow and not getting xp, please read here:

Follow the instructions, and report your case, I am sure if this keeps on it will be looked into.

Today is a new day. In the last few hours I have had 2 players constantly stealing cry and shooting my kills, and bringing mass amounts of mantis on me. I just reported this to a GM. I was informed they didn't see it, so they cant do anything about it.

I wish it were just a few players, but it is entire clans actually. I even create a new clan with a grand total of one member. This did not fix the problem but made it worse. How do you expect new players to play the game.

It appears you are playing favorites.

Hello Pilot;
you have any screenshot or something about your complaint?
same for your current bug here isn't the rigth way to report it you need help contact at support here:
http://support.splitscreenstudios.com/
then we can help you with these issues

 

[tinybubbles]

Thank you for your quick reply. I don't have any current screen shots because this happens on a daily basis. I have only played a short while and it gets old. It would be nice if we could get some new members on game and keep them.

I was able to finally buy a clan and a jump ship. I needed to know how much a 3rd armor would cost me for a defender ship. This forum is not user friendly and I am unable to find anything on it. The only source of info I can find is on wiki. That's not very good either.

Maybe I can help you with a real picture of what is happening. My last clan of over 30 members all but disappeared from the game. These were high rollers who have many months in the game. Their game went elsewhere. It should be very visible on the quarterly P/L statement. Im not the only one who quit putting any more money into game.

This is not my first request, but very well may be my last request for help. If you need a screen shot then you are playing favorites as I dont believe I have been singled out in any means. Its the same people and the same clans.

I have followed the rules and it has brought me here. With no results. I was hoping for more.

What tinyebubbles is saing is true pilots are beaing harrased over and over and noting is done,members of my clan have been singeld out and harrased screenshots taken and noting notisable was done.

If harrased GM´s say take screenshots whit timestamp(F11) or video .....but the thing is pilots just dont bother whit it...they get fed up and leave, speciali when they see nothing done about it, this game has a ton of rules that are enforsed in a strangest of ways, u get a warning for saing BEEP into the blue but noting for mixing ur BEEP BEEP BEEP in privat chat.

Only few hours ago BEEP was shooting harvs on earth and BEEP (who must have made somekind of record so for, so many have complaind about him) had to stop by and start shooting the his harvs...now u probabli think no one owns the harvs, true, but i have seen BEEP complain about the same thing, sadlie he gets of on things like that, BEEP not the onlie guy that does this but know for it.

Not sure if harrasment has anything to do whit it but things are a bit quiet here on Solaria my clan dormant to say the least, most are just bored to death whit sirius and the endless grind to nowere.

to be continued.

You do not need to sign in, there are 3 Buttons in the middle:
Register / Submite a Ticket /Troubleshooter

Click on the Submite a Ticket, and you will be able to do it.

Take screenshots with the Timestamp (F11) every time this happens to you, the timestamp will prove the occurrences of harassment by same players in different times.
If this happens to you in one day with same players doing it, that is proof enough.
If you have no proof there is nothing that can be done.

To have and need a Screenshot is not playing favorites, even in a real court anyone is innocent till proven guilty.
We cannot penalize players for doing wrong, or breaking the rules just with a written complain of a player.
Proof is needed always to proceed as should. In the contrary, I'd say that would be favoritism if someone complains without proof, and the case is handled.

I have followed the rules and it has brought me here. With no results. I was hoping for more.

Had 2 gm's online when it happened again. They informed me that if they can shoot it too, they can steal all my cry and golds. Whats the point of playing if I have to sneak into the game in the middle of the night?

I dont mind helping, but being abused is different. Need to change the COC and make everyone red all the time, please. Can take care of it myself.

There is no need to change the code of conduct or make everyone red, what you do is you ask politely for them to leave and if they don't then you can either report it to their clan admiral, or to a friend so that they can pod them when they go red. When people go into pirate mode they are saying " i am willing to be podded for the xp bonus or to be able to pod others", so that isnt harassment.

I have been around and sometimes you do tend to be a little aggressive in chat and that tends to make people mad or irritated at you, so it is a possibility that they aren't trying to "run the new player off" but to get back at you for something you said/did.

there are plenty of clans out there that stay ring one or two that just play sirius in a relaxed way so you dont have to "sell your soul" to the clan, but if you want bps, xp, cryo, and such from ring 3+ you have to be willing to put in the time.

 

[Morpheus GM]

if you are being abused in chat then you need to screenshot this with the timestamp (f11) showing, then you need to send it to support to be dealt with,

 

[tinybubbles]

Thank you Mad wolf, will check into it.

So posting in chat is my problem Dakhan? So I should censor myself? If you had the opportunity to see the chat history you would see I have been a gentleman in every way.

I do want to thank Morpeous for actually coming and looking at one of the problem children. The clan admiral was writing his own COC as the rules didn't apply to him or his clan.
Amazing what happens when a GM shows up, the nonsense goes away.

The rules apply to everyone, you too BEEP. You have got be getting bored playing by yourself by now. Yes BEEP, you were the first r85 ship to pod me in Vega, before I knew the rules. You some kind of Elite outfit there, r85 in Vega. You doing missions or something?

As for posting pictures or making tickets. Just a total waste of effort. Dont need a GM then, just a collection point for all the pictures.

I hope the other GM's follow Morpheus lead, and get out there and check things out as they happen.

I didn't mean my previous post to be offensive so if it was please forgive me for that. All i was saying is that when anyone gets aggravated about the things you said (dragging trash onto you or stealing harvesters) people tend to lash out, which never helps a situation, only makes them want to do it more since they got a reaction from you.

The rules apply to everyone, you too BEEP. You have got be getting bored playing by yourself by now. Yes BEEP, you were the first r85 ship to pod me in Vega, before I knew the rules. You some kind of Elite outfit there, r85 in Vega. You doing missions or something?

This is an example of you lashing out, this doesn't help anything in my experience and it only makes others want to hunt you down.

Once again no offense is meant by this or my previous post, i am only trying to point out possible causes that you are being targeted.

 

[tinybubbles]

I meant my comments as examples. I just got tired of a small element messing up the game. I hope that any new player who has same problems can see how it was handled here.

Best advice is to move on, wait 5 minutes, and come back to what you were doing. The bottom feeders of the game dont outnumber us yet.

If anyone is offended, then they need to look at the game they play.

Would suggest the bored one who cause trouble for entertainment to get busy helping others. They will feel good at the end of the day.

I hope everyone can enter the forum and share their ideas regardless if it is popular or not.

 

[tinybubbles]

I like the new rules posted for the game. Especially the Vega rules. I may buy my ships back and go down and help now. Keep on Rollin.
