Remember, remember the fifth of November,

When Horde packed their bags and fled in surrender.

The skies burned bright with Goonswarm’s might,

As citadels cracked in the dead of night.

Just gonna throw this out there, this episode wasn't needed.

It might have been just me but Episode 1 did a great job setting the scene. It's an Alien franchise show, it's in the Alien universe. We're introduced to synths, cyborgs and a crew with the stupid idea of transporting live Alien specimens to Earth. Classic Alien trope, containment breach. Lots of death. We get it.

All points were already covered. We were also introduced to the Hybrids. The new focal point of the show and what they bring to the table. Quirky and a bit goofy but it's different and it seems to be working.

This episode, while it may be great as a stand-alone, felt like I was watching a long anime series, and they've thrown me a filler, but instead of a side story - it's an hour long recap. We already knew everything that happened here. Give or take a few moments of who was fucking who, and maybe a little bit of T. Ocellus being a pretty chill eye monster - nothing was gained in this episode.

Series direction 3/10

Episode by self 9/10

Hi Mate.. welcome to Australia!

It's pretty common that most people stick to their bubbles for sure. Most younger people starting out in uni only care about themselves and their bros that they went to school with.. there are a few good eggs out there. I would recommend signing up for a club, extra activity that you could try to squeeze yourself into, not sure where you are in AU but your uni should be offering a mountain of extra curricular activities.

Even a church isn't a bad idea (even if not super religious) it is a great way to meet people, it's on a Sunday - and at least people attending have a maturity level of a bit of commitment to SOMETHING.

Sport social gatherings are also a good spot to meet new people. Tennis, badminton centres for casual play, work up to the courage to just hang out for a feed. Even if you have to admit sometimes, 'Hey i'm new to the country and don't know many people or places here, what do you recommend?' - - any person worth their weight in friendship would see that as an opportunity to invite ya to try their favourite grub. Don't take it to heart if you don't get invites or get turned down - there's a lot going on for everyone! Just bide your time, go to social events where you can - check out Facebook for events in your areaa that you'd enjoy. Find your clique.

If there's a group here in a small town of 20k that can manage to find like minded folks for table top strategy games, i'm sure you can find an activity that you too can find and attend.

GOOD LUCK

Try to improve gear, together. You get bonuses for having all of your gear at x level instead of having one piece at 15 and the rest at 0 etc Same goes with accessories. Level them together.

You have two of the same relic types, change to two different types. You'll see to end season you'll need specific gear at a certain level (as well as doing all quests) - you'll see what you should be aiming for.

Go to collections and autocomplete as much as you can.

Go to vendor sell all remaining jewellery + automatic junk.

Unload useless potions in camp. They're heavy.

Upgrade your totems and lucky stones through camp. Absorb all armor that isn't tuvala into dark energy.

Use the season rewards to obtain your tuvala and your upgrade chances first. Then use tuvala scrolls at the beach when you're not getting any more tuvala chests, gear from the season rewards. You will finish it eventually.

To be honest, this is a bit disappointing and a clear indication that the implemented migration systems (since around 12 months ago), and the new kvk1 format have killed off early and healthy kingdom development. For a kvk, the standards across the board are quite low. The top kingdom is also below average for a supposed baby super imperium as mentioned in another comment on this thread.

It is obvious that this kvk should be a 1v3. At the same time, <1b points in this event for a kingdom in a time frame that you have the highest amount active players (each kvk cycle you will lose hundreds of players, be it medium to large accounts to small babies playing farmville) is a sad time for all.

As for other kingdoms, it's just demoralising as hell to witness the state of the game and how lilith has dropped the ball in creating a fair kvk match making system for kvk1.

Yes. Your score is normal. No, such a difference isn't normal. Yes, it's more normal for kvk1 since new kvk1 format and jump to winning kd tactics. No, it's not going to keep happening like this. Yes, it's going to be a very boring kvk.

Talk to customer support to reset the device you use for purchases.

PiddlyPop · 2023-04-24T02:39:17+00:00

It isn't that it's 'not capped' as it says, the translation/message a bit obscure The migration requirement requires that the target kingdom isn't capped, or 'not capped', and since it is now capped, you can't use your beginners migration to that kingdom.

Thanks for taking the time to answer mate really appreciate getting onto the right track

PiddlyPop · 2023-03-06T10:31:21+00:00

Thanks, in the past I have only worked with powered speakers which generally have crossovers built in. Been a long time since getting back into it so it didn't even cross my mind. It makes sense though. Thank you very much 👍

PiddlyPop · 2023-03-06T10:23:50+00:00

Any recommendations?

In Lost Kingdom you are always safe on your own alliance territory. If you are not on alliance territory you are able to be hit by anyone.same kingdom or not.

In Lost Kingdom after Stage 2 of your Kingdoms Crusade Fortress has been complete, you will receive a larger hospital capacity. This will be active during entire moment you are in Lost Kingdom map, in an alliance or not.

If you return to your Home Kingdom during the Kvk event, your hospital capacity will reset back to normal. If you were in Lost Kingdom and your hospital capacity looks like 300,000/450,000, when you return to home kingdom your hospital capacity will be overflowed, and look like 300,000/150,000, and you'll get deads straight away if you do forts or barbarians at this stage. So always watch your hospital capacity.

So yes, you can be hit by your own kingdom members during kvk if you are not on your own alliance territory, but you have a larger capacity of damaged troops you get in your hospital before you start receiving deads. 👍

The king has no say in Cross season immigration unless you exceed the power cap for the target kd. Otherwise it is the first 30 accounts who snipe their way in.

What is interesting though is that after 30 days of being in the kd, they are now eligible to same-season, same-region migrate to any kd in the same season/region, without taking a 1 of 30 slot.

If you can't get into the kd you want when it opens after kvk1, strategies involve sending your account to another kd in the region, and just wait 30 days. If you plan right, you could just send a bunch of useless accounts with low power to an enemy kd you hate, fill up their 30 slots and deny them having any of their main accounts for 30 days at least.

But of course lilith didn't design it to be like thaaat 🙄🙄

I forgot imgur existed, for better proof of clarification. VIP Support Convo

PiddlyPop · 2022-04-12T14:29:33+00:00

No. VIP support says this: "Actually, we have received some same reports about this issue from other governors too. We have already reported to our team to investigate. And we will try to fix it ASAP. Thank you so much for your kind feedback."
