A mysterious voice promises stolen VEGA technology in exchange for data cores.

Event Quotes[ | ]

ANONYMOUS TRANSMISSION RECEIVED

Commander,

Some kind of Signal is being broadcast to us and every other sector by burst transmission. It was encoded in a substitution just sophisticated enough to outfox the average VEGA patrol ship.

-ATTENTION ALL MINERS - ACCIDENTALLY STUMBLED ON NEW VEGA TECH - HAVE NO STORAGE SPACE AVAILABLE - OPEN TO SUGGESTIONS

Probably nothing important, but I will let you know if anything more comes of it.
  — Sybil 
THE UPRISING HAS BEGUN

The anonymous broadcaster has sent a new message, Commander. The same cypher as before. I am cerain there is something else behind this offer, Commander, but I doubt if this were a VEGA ploy, it would be instructing us to destroy VEGA Fleets.


- UPDATE ON RECOVERED TECH - WILLING TO EXCHANGE FOR DATA CORES RECOVERED FROM VEGA PROSPECTORS -KIEFERABLY THE WRECKAGE OF VEGA PROSPECTORS -ALL BUYERS WELCOME - IF DEMAND IS HIGH WILL STUMBLE ON ADDITIONAL STOCK.


I am certain there is something else behind this offer, Commander, but I doubt if this were a VEGA ploy, it would be instructing us to VEGA Fleets.
  — Sybil 
NEW TRANSMISSION RECEIVED

Several of our peers have been seen using unreleased VEGA Tech, Comander. The anonymous broadcaster's offer seems to be legitimate.


- OFFLOADED SOME TECH - PLENTY LEFT OVER BUT WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE FOREVER -DESTROY AS MANY VEGA PROSPECTORS AS YOU CAN - BRING THE DATA CORES TO ME - WILL GIVE TECH IN EXCHANGE 0 EVERYONE IS HAPPY - EXCEPT VEGA OBVIOUSLY.
  — Sybil 
NEW TRANSMISSION RECEIVED

Another coded broadcast, Commander.


HALF THE RECOVERED TECH REMAINS AVAILABLE FOR ALL COMERS - KEEP DESTROYING FLEETS AND BRINGING US DATA - GIFTED TECH LITERALLY FLYING OUT OUR STORAGE - DO NOT BE THE ONLY MINER ON YOUR SECTOR MISS OUT
  — Sybil 
NEW TRANSMISSION RECEIVED

VEGA appear to be investigating a robbery of one of their fortified storage facilities. Apparently someone cleared it out without setting off a single alarm about one week ago. Coincidentally, here is today's message from the anonymous broadcaster:


UNDERSTAND ANONYMITY IS SUSPICIOUS - ACKNOWLEDGE QUESTIONS AS TO OUR IDENTITY AND PURPOSE FOR DATA CORES - ALL QUESTIONS ANSWERED AS FOLLOWS- IMAGINE HOW MANY DATA CORES YOU COULD BE GATHERING IF YOU WERE NOT SITTING THERE ASKING STUPID QUESTIONS - KEEP DESTROYING FLEETS
  — Sybil 
NEW TRANSMISSION RECEIVED

Yet another anonymous broadcast.


SOMEBODY BLABBED - VERY DISAPPOINTED - VEGA ANALYZING BROADCASTS - DESTROY PROSPECTORS AND RECOVER AS MANY DATA CORES AS YOU CAN NOW BEFORE VEGA TAKE ACTION - IF ASKED ABOUT STOLEN TECH KIETEND IT FELL OFF THE BACK OF A TRANSPORT VESSEL
  — In-Game Description 
NEW TRANSMISSION RECEIVED - ENDING OF EVENT

Another Anonymous coded transmission.


VEGA ONTO ME - VEGA CARGO FLEETS NO LONGER EQUIPPED WITH DESIRED DATA CORES - WILL STILL EXCHANGE TECH FOR DATA CORES RECOVERED BEFORE TODAY - GOING DARK IN A FEW DAYS - COLLECT TECH BEFORE THEN


I still cannot tell where this transmission is coming from. The picking up of data and delivery of tech is being conducted through a network of intermediaries so labyrinthine that their origin is impossible to determine.

  • The event shop will be open until Thursday, February 6 at 3pm PST. Any data cores not traded in for a prize or resources will be lost.
  • When attacking VEGA Prospector fleets, you will receive a set number of data cores. The higher the level of the VEGA fleet, the more data cores you win. Damage dealt is proportional to the amount of data cores you get. If you deal 50% damage, you will receive 50% of the data cores available.

  • VEGA Prospectors fleets are level 27+. Use your skill to defeat them!
  • Data Cores can be converted to resources by the player after the event is over, but only if you’ve already claimed a prize or don’t have enough Data Cores to claim a prize. Any Data Cores not converted by the player before the shop closes on February 6 will be forfeited. One data core = one resource.
  • Relocation is disabled during the event and repair times for fleets are not changed.
  • Data cores will only be earned while the event is occurring. A battle started while the event is happening that ends after the event is over will not reward data cores.
