Ngaiawang community goal-Slave discount

Can a dev please explain how the 10% discount on Imperial Slaves works,I had hoped it was throughout the Empire,but seems not to be working anywhere...

Guess I just wasted about 8 hrs on this goal
 
Yes i don't seem to be geeting a discount on imperial slaves either. Whether it is in an independent station or empire
 
Discount is there but only at Dornier Terminal in Ngaiawang. Only thing is theyre on demand with no buy option... so it discounted the sale price to 14.7k from 15.7k
 
OMG !
I played 5 days only focussing on that goal... Just so ED knows how broken that is : I did a community goal for the feds (Banki) like 1 or 2 weeks ago. As usually, I feel a bit betrayed on the empire side. First, fed side had been well thought and was working fine (the global reward was disount on outfitting, and almost none was available before the end of the goal, and after the end it worked perfectly fine and outfits were added to previous ones). Plus, ofc, the fact that this 15% on outfits can just make you save millions in a second (btw, about that, there's still something to do about it when you'd like to sell something available in the station that's already fitted on your ship. If you sell your old expensive one, you can't buy back the brand new 15% reduced one, which seems quite stupid...).
So I thought, in the end, ok, instead of saving cash I'll earn some, why not...? And in addition, Playing on the fed side made me earn reputation (lots, and a rank straight after), whereas playing on empire side didn't give ANY rep.....

Am I the only one thinking that's so unfair ???

Just like the clipper's (impossible to put any decal or skin, why ? Are imperials supposed to be disregarding aesthetic ?) limitations, or the availability of rank missions (that at first were available for feds and broken for empire), I feel (don't wanna cry or something devs, just expressing my thoughts) that fed side is done sooner and better than imperial side.

I'm not asking that you guys from FD do the opposite. But just that things could be balanced, and should be, so everyone would think it's fair. Because if you don't pay attention to that, you can just as well say : playing the empire might make you feel happy, but you'll play with a handicap then. (which I'm sure is not what you want to do, and that's precisely why I'm requiring your attention on that matter, because it's far from the first time I think/remark that)

Is anyone sharing my feelings about it ?

Thanks in advance for your reply devs and players. I love that game so much, sometimes it's hard to handle these unfair stuffs. Thought I'd play a bit after my long late shift, but I'm not in the mood anymore now I know I stayed and fought a dozen (or more) hours in that combat zone for a single 500K reward.....that can be earned in 30 min of trade for me...
 
A little disappointed that the Global discount appears to be neither Global nor a discount.

Oh well at least I got 100k bonus for my troubles..............

"Global" means it applies to every player who participated, as contrasted with "Individual" rewards. The rewards are typically only at one starport (the one that gave the mission), and generally start about 8-9 hours after the event finishes.

Hope you're right mate-only this station never sold them in the first place,which is why I assumed/hoped it was Empirewide
 
PMSL just imagining all the people thinking "Ngaiawang?".

You wouldn't understand, it's a Mitchell & Webb thing...

ahh, i was under the impression that global meant a discount 'anywhere in the empire' on imperial slaves too.. never mind, once bitten twice shy! i'll maybe leave the community goal stuff till they have the issues ironed out. was good combat practice though, so not a total loss.
 
If you makes you Empire guys feel any better - the 5% discount on the Federal Dropship for the 'Build a Capital Ship' goal at Hudson Orbital is also not working.

There are no Federal Dropships for sale there! Go figure.

Did it just complete? It generally takes several hours for any community goal to kick in. Took about 8 hours for the Asp to show up for sale for that reward.

You buying it? In the time I take to get there, I will make double the savings in trading profit. It just seem not worth it. At 10% I'll bite but 5%....
