I bought 2 from the Halloween event last year and I've not had a single "event" go on, I know it says "Has a chance at triggering a random event" but after 5 months you would of gotten at least one right?

Dan hoodwinked everyone with this module. It most likely has the same chance as finding a dyson or a quasi dropping.....sure it is possible, but not likely. Enjoy the pricey scan module.

Same here, havent had 1 event triggered as yet. There is always the hope that the next one would be the lucky one, but hey I have the same attitude with scanning, lol

on my news feed: That happened right after I hit invade today. Was just a world I was going to take arties off of and then abandon but then that happened. This was not an "analyze" event as that would have said "'Planet name' has reported strange readings coming from the planet's surface. It may be time to analyze the planet." Plus my upkeep isn't due till several hours after this was invaded.

invasion almost daily and not a single event yet other then the basics prisoners and that crap that normally showed up this is 1 of the biggest waste of the mods that paid for i have seen so far and will continue being a waste until i finally do see something i heard of people getting rings and stuff though

I sent an email to support about this very thing around 10 days ago, stating there was definitely an issue to not see a single effect in over 70 invasions since the items were released. Quote: Galaxy Legion Support Mar 19 (10 days ago)
to me Hi, We're checking into that. There does appear to be an issue with the frequency of triggers there.
Also, to Pitch Ninja; Your's is actually the 4th such event where i've seen someone get Planetary Rings from an invasion since the Psycubes were introduced.

For what it's worth, I did not buy the psycubes, but I was a governor when I invaded a planet that spawned rings. I've also had a couple of minor events from invading. I'm still holding on to the belief that the psycubes were a wasted purchase. For the amount of money they require, the owner should see the affect a LOT more often (75% at the very least)

If that's the case, then you are right, the cubes are useless.

The "Analyse Available", to whit you refer is what appears when you already own the planet, and you get the message that a strange reading has been detected on a planet and that an analyse is available. What's being discussed here is what happens during invasions, and if you look at the screenshot that's been provided in this thread, before questioning what happened, you can see the event that happens actually causes a red box message to appear to the side(like what happens when a planetary event occurs when you colonize a planet or invade a planet). You don't get red box alerts that tell you, *you got rings on a planet*, when using the "analyze" button. You get a message at the top of the planet box(in green), that reads, analyze successful, planetary rings appeared around your planet or somesuch.

I was talking more specifically about eternalpaw's incident, but I'd confused myself with it anyway. Disregard.

The rings occured similar to Pitch Ninjas invasion event. I don't think I've ever had a planet get the "Analyze Available" occurence unfortunately.

I have easily 50 to 80 invades since adding the cubes and have not had any permanent or semi-permanent effects on a single planet.
I would say the cubes must be at 0.01% instead of perhaps 10% or something.
Nothing should be that useless with such a high GP cost. It is highway robbery the way it is now.

Agreed for the price paid and to have zero effects since installation id like to somehow be compensated . a couple reality transfusers and/or quasi spatial expanders would suffice

I figured out that I've done 105 invasions since then and haven't seen any events. Opened a ticket, will see what they say.
