Early Access version 119

[InterAction_studios]

@Sammarald

i’m not sure if this is a rounding error or something but I had this right before getting to the Ensign rank
flight time rounding error perhaps?

Fixed in v.119.4 (server-side) Bug

@kokokokos

Fantastic, even more of that stupid wave

I see by your mission history that you’ve played a grand total of 2 meteor storm missions, so I hardly think you’ll be affected

@Knightcap

The wave should be had same enemies in all time you or someone else play a mission with have “Cardinality of Four” wave

Known. This is the only wave where enemies don’t all spawn at the beginning, but rather progressively throughout the wave. The randomizer will have been thrown out of sync by the time the second group spawns.

@Arian_Playz1384

in pro-gamer mode, enemy projectiles can still be hidden under your own weapon

For cosmetic reasons, some bullets cannot be raised (in your example, the bullets would appear in front of the Mother-Hen ship). The main aim of Pro-Gamer mode is to avoid bullets being hidden by explosions, and during boss fights there’s no danger of that.

@GuestUniverse

apparently it didn’t count towards “difficulty 10%” quest

The starting difficulty needs to be above the threshold. Weekly starts at 0%, so… I’ve already changed the wording.

@RainbowBoyVN

I guess you forgot about the “Per hour” one.

Fixed in v.120 Bug

@QuackQuack

Can there be a method to move to a specific place by inputting coordinate, planet name or missions etc

Generally, no. You could move your view to a specific coordinate, but that would require UI clutter.

@QuackQuack

So the quest require original difficulty whole at least 15% and ignore skills? Should skills be counted?

Hmm… Yes, I guess that wouldn’t hurt.
Changed in v.119.4 (server-side) Idea

@QuackQuack

Chicken Multiplicity / Exponentiality boss

Individual enemies

@QuackQuack

UFO (which contains the UFO itself, the falling disk and the ejected pilot)

3 enemies

@QuackQuack

gatling / laser gun (which contains the gun and the ejected chick),

2 enemies

@QuackQuack

asteroid / supernova debris that splits

Individual enemies

@QuackQuack

Should there be quests about destroying them

If they don’t count, then there’s no stat to track

[InterAction_studios]

Game server will be moved sometime today (Sep 8th 2022) or tomorrow. This will result in a brief period of downtime (hopefully less than 5 minutes). Will post more details nearer the time.

@kokokokos

Fantastic, even more of that stupid wave.

That wave is boring as hell and represent nothing special to be included in other missions.

@ChickenGaming

Also this wave is suprisingly deadly in Darkness Elite without a VF.

It’s not in lower difficulty, in higher difficulties you just have to keep firing where higher vision will be granted to be able to dodge properly.

@QuackQuack

+) In the quest “fly mission difficulty 15%”, I flew a 1 - 8% and 7 - 15% mission with Superstar Hero skills (+ 40% = 41 - 48% and 47 - 55%) but it didn’t count. So the quest require original difficulty whole at least 15% and ignore skills? Should skills be counted?

Wasn’t it fixed in the 3rd emergency patch? also are you sure you didn’t fly the same mission?

@Baron

Why feather fields missions exist most of the time in weekly challenge? this is getting boring, not to mentions other mission types have rarity to appear.

@Baron

Quests suggestion:

I have a new quest objective I would like to include: Visit the specified amounts of wormholes.

also the other thing is to give keys each a quest objective is completed, and a medal for several specified amount of quests completed during a day/week/month, That should make quests worth all the amount of countless efforts that is put into completing them. And the huge amounts of keys that is spared on this.

@InterAction_studios take a look on these.

[Bandicoot]

This is very amazing!

[Arnav]

i collected all weapons but mission success didn’t appear
although 2nd last wave was planetary egg city

[PlasmaX]

As you can see, I got 56M on this mission,

But I’m not on the top 10. Bug?

[OneWingLunarian]

now how the HECK does this mission work exactly

entering a star system doesnt work
orbiting a planet at a star system doesnt work
exploring all planets in a star system doesnt work
finding a new star system doesnt work
playing a mission in a star system doesnt work

do i have to like, sit there for 5 minutes or something?

[iIfireIi]

Maybe you need to visit star systems you didn’t explore? Sounds impossible to complete if you explored the entire the galaxy.

[neonep]

You did an assignment, they’re not eligible for leaderboards anymore

[OneWingLunarian]

@iIfireIi

Maybe you need to visit star systems you didn’t explore? Sounds impossible to complete if you explored the entire the galaxy.

@OneWingLunarian

finding a new star system doesnt work

does this answer

[ChickenGaming]

People finding “Visit Starsystem” quests when they’ve explored all star systems be like:

Also, the way quests are designed is pretty flawed in my opinion.
If you got a quest you don’t want to do because it’s not fun for you, you’re effectively trapped in that rank, which means no more new quests to do, no progression, just stuck there, forever.
Here’s a solution for that:

More choice on quests! (A Quests system rework)

I’m suggesting a new, simple rework on Quests. Calling it “The Choice Rework” for simplicity. The aim for this rework is to give you more of a choice on which quests you want to do, which in turn will make it more fun to advance through the quests, as you’d have more fun doing what you want to do, and not what you have to do to progress. After all, quests are not really competitive things, and shouldn’t be left to only a few people willing to do everything the quests ask (which includes things…

[OneWingLunarian]

they’re more on dedication rather than a multiple choice

after all how can you call yourself an admiral if you cant even be bothered to do what they give you

[DePeeper]

Any missions done via squadron assignments are no longer eligible for leaderboard positions.

[ScarletCuboids]

You should scroll up and read the changelog

[QuackQuack]

If you are bankrupt and don’t have Lightning Fryer, you will have to accept buying one and use it at level 0? And if you accidentally pick up another weapon, the mission is doomed?

[iIfireIi]

Not really hard. A mission or 3 can make you easily buy Lightning fryer.

Plus, 0 firepower isn’t so bad, just look for 7 easy missions and put tourist in them. You’ll still get the quest done.

And yeah, avoid picking anything.

[Mzdziungwa]

right now I have this task only in my case I have it for 3 lvl (the worst is when you catch another weapon before the end of the 3x10 mission)

[InterAction_studios]

@Baron

Why feather fields missions exist most of the time in weekly challenge

Because someone suggested it. See Some Hybrid missions probabilities . I could reduce its chance of appearance if a poll supports it.

@Baron

Visit the specified amounts of wormholes

This can already appear as part of the “Orbit landmarks” goal (but you need to be more that 50% in your rank progression)

@Arnav

i collected all weapons but mission success didn’t appear

But it did appear after a brief delay, correct? Maybe one of the power-ups was outside of the screen. What was the last wave?

@OneWingLunarian

how the HECK does this mission work exactly

Picking any other star system (explored or not) and selecting “Travel to star system” should be enough. It’s not working for you? Odd. Ah, bug. Fixed in v.119.4 (server-side) Bug

@iIfireIi

Maybe you need to visit star systems you didn’t explore

No, any star system is fine.

@QuackQuack

you will have to accept buying one and use it at level 0

Yes

@QuackQuack

And if you accidentally pick up another weapon, the mission is doomed

Yes

[QuackQuack]

If I reach a milestone and got new quests but not check them out, will my record be counted? For example, I reached a milestone and got a new quest of killing xxxx enemies. I don’t go check the new quests and go on another mission instead first. Iirc, when I come back and check, it didn’t count and still show 0/xxxx. So it require me to actually check the quests before they track my record?

[InterAction_studios]

@QuackQuack

So it require me to actually check the quests before they track my record?

No. It’s possible to never visit the Goals screen and still advance through the ranks.

@QuackQuack

when I come back and check, it didn’t count and still show 0/xxxx

No, that’s not possible. However, every time you go to the next milestone, all stats are reset to zero. So you can’t complete goals “in advance”, before they actually appear in your list.
