    Flashbacks are no new code at all.

    Correct, just the ranked 5* crew reward will be new. Here’s a link to the original description:

    The first flashback was also chosen so it would have a modern reward structure. This one very much does not.

    The new crew adds complexity to an event. If adding a couple extra threshold rewards is that difficult, then their code is even worse than we feared.

    On the other hand they could do a rerun in the first place if the rework on the reward structure would not matter. I expect it to be exactly the same as on the original run.

    Thanks for the information, Shan. Unexpected but welcome news. :)

    So I just realized that the original "Fast as Light" event ran back when you had to finish Top 1000 to score the event 5*. Any chance that at least will be changed @Shan ? Or would changing it defeat the point of the flashback?

    After 1200 Eastern on Wednesday, we can also check the Ranked Rewards Table. Just a general comment for anyone who did not realize. Not singling you out, just quoted you since you had asked, to inform people. No offense was meant, intended, implied, or planned.

    The flashback event is next week. The reward table is not available until next Wednesday. The table you showed is for this week's event which we knew would be the normal reward structure.

    I keep forgetting the new "week ahead" thing!!!!!!

    Like eight minutes to start. Kind of late, isn't it?

    Weird, unless I am miscounting it seems like there are just 2 three-seat shuttles in terran and augment factions but 3 three-seat shuttles in cardassian faction.

    I found it odd. But one is only single-skill seats. My percentage wasn't as high. I think it's a delightful little curve ball. :)

    Yeah I do not mind some differences in factions I was just surprised.

    Thanks for the clarification. An interesting (and much appreciated) twist.
  • DScottHewittDScottHewitt ✭✭✭✭✭
    And there it goes. Had TWO fail at over 96% chance......

  • Anyone close to rank 1500 who can give a VP update?

    I'm about 500 right now, so I can't give you an answer, but the general rule on a faction event is 550 to 600 thousand points, depending on the 5* crew. Galaxy events are about 600 to 650 thousand, and skirmish is around 800K.

    I always aim.for those numbers and it generally works.

    People are fighting hard for this event.

    They sure are! I’m damn near 3000 and I’m not putting any less effort than normal. I’m never ranked this low

    I knew the possibility of earning a Honey Bare was going to get a lot of players fired up, so I didn't even figure on ranking for this one — still need 4 more stars on mine, but going to take a crack at the event pack next week instead to try to score another copy.


    Could you please continue the petty bickering? I find it most intriguing.

  • Rank 1,500 is around 400k right now.

    Yep, forced to using many multipliers and boosts just to barely maintain <1500

    Finally had one fail, but it was a 7th shuttle in a group, so I am okay with that.
