Colonialweek

The Colonial Week was a week long sales event held from the 1st to the 7th of July, 2012.

Players were able to take advantage of several 20% off item, booster, ammo and other consumables sales during the week while two Golden Rock Splitter Events were held during the week. Originally there were to be three events however the first Golden Rock Splitter Event did not activate due to several game bugs, one of which caused FTL missions to be free.

Event Issue[]

The Golden Rock Splitter Event experienced issues on July 1st where is did not activate. The issue also caused the FTL Fragment mission to be free, so players did not need to spend their FTL Fragmented Coordinates to enter the mission.

The mission was left free to enter for a little over 24 hours until the issue was fixed. The developers decided to allow all players to keep their rewards from repeatedly playing the missions as all players were able to enter and were each eligible to play for free, rather than rollback every players progress over the past day. This game bug is known as the Free FTL Day by several players.

  • 100 Light, Medium, Heavy and XL rounds of each of the newly released ammo
