[SC] new hitac event

Hi All,

First of all I want to thank DO for have an AM event. I was excited to see it. I know nothing about it but it is here.

I do have a problem. Why do I need to buy stuff for it. Why can't we just play. There is an Icon that pops us and a bar to buy more. Why can we just play.

The new hitac event is going on now. Would you be kind enough to let me know where it is.

Thank you,
Angus

 

The pop up on the back page is basically there for the purchase of lottery capsules if you like to spend money, you can gain capsules by doing event missions and getting letters from killing hitac minions when they appear with the hitac and exchanging for capsules once you have all the letters required. The hitac moves from map to map (x4,x3 and 4x maps) in a cycle and a pop up saying a hitac as appeared on a given map will appear briefly on your game page. On your game page there is an icon in the shape of a piece of a jigsaw puzzle that you can use to exchange letters or keep track of the letters you already have. Any capsules you have purchased or gained from the event can be exchanged for lottery tickets for the lottery draw also for each capsule exchanged there is also a reward.

Wrong. Hitac does not move on PvP maps, unless it will get bugged. Last year, I remember few Hitacs went to say friendly Hello Hi to Century Falcon on LoW, which was kinda hilarious.

 

and it does not work .last hitac didnt and the current doesnt too ..what ever you do guys do not buy capsules as they will not enter the lottery ,,they may even dissapear as mine did in the last event ..and if you press the devs on this as i did ,the responce was it was a visual glitch !
300 capsules i had and they all just dissapeared .

i got no refund ,,they just took my money and said visual glitch .without a care in the world .

 

Because it is visual glitch, you still have capsules registered even if backpage says 0.

 

Hi All,

Thank you for your help.

Hi All,

Well I found one and was flying towards it and guess who was there. Yep, MCC and a bunch. I moved off and there was a second one. It didn't have anybody attacking it so I attacked it. It is hard to kill, and damage it. It keeps me in slow mode. Is there a trick to beat it? Yea I didn't win not because I didn't try. I kept attack the same module and was weaking it too. I had to pull a way to heal up some before I attack again. It travels to sector to sector too so I was following it. MCC shows up and I was down hit points and a few shots I was down and out.

There are minions for the Hitac, and I was attacking them to destroy the shield, but I was hitting it was my best, and gave it little damage. Is the minion the little blue disk on the end of the Hitac? That is what I was shooting at.

I was using my Citadel. It can cause a lot of damage with rockets and has greater hit points too. I can give over a 100,000 points of damage with each rocket blast, and it looked like I wasn't cause much damage, but I was damaging it.

Some players just are not strong enough to kill the hitac themselves, you must find a group of players to enter and get help. You might not be the strongest so maybe you might not get the letter for the lottery but you will get uridium from the kill. Sometimes players don't know enough about the game or their equipment isn't enough to participate in certain event's.

 

Hi All,

I can't believe it. I was flying around looking for the Hitac, and I saw a fellow company man/woman. The person was high level and he flew off. I was going to go to the next sector and was sitting at a gate just about to transfer. Then the world exploded around me. While I was a the gate, MCC in a bunch popped in plus a Hitac. Well I sort of follow the group. I lock on the Hitac and fought with them. They didn't attack me like they did the other day when I was fighting a Hitac. So we fought and we won. Every one left after the kill and no one still attacked me. There was one person there with me and the capsule. I just sat there and waited. So I moved in and took it and the other person didn't do anything even thought he was from another company and higher level. I went to a gate to heal, and I jump back to base to get out of there incase they came back.

Now here what I got:
459 Uridium
Capsule
141,409 Experience Points
454 Honor Points
165,283 Credits

It was a group KILL and I guess we all got it.

Now for the Question:

Where is the Capsule? I looked in Inventory and all over the place and I can't find it.

Click on the lottery button below the Start button at the back page it will take you to where your capsules are.

 

Hi Radiance,
