I understand that Scopely only see big spenders as important, but do you really have to make it so obvious?
I have drooled over the vault contents since they were introduced, but suddenly, when the majority of players have worked to get to the point of opening them free, the contents become shocking
This game is becoming almost unplayable as a F2P player, which is the one promise Scopely makes in their advertising
Anyone know where this shows up? its been 24hours..
I gotta say that from an Officer sourcing standpoint, this is the worst, the most frustrating month that I can ever recall there being in this game. First you screw over the vast majority of players by offering only a paid path to Ducat, then you donāt put any Cardassian Officers at all in the Treasury Lockbox. š¤¦āāļøšš
In the top chest row of your daily tasks. Might take a bit to pop the first time.
Stop adding red ā!ā To everything, they become meaningless when everything have them.
The grind has become too much scopely. Youāre losing people bc they are frustrated with the time requirement to actually get anything done. Something has to give.
This magic formulae you are hooked on is not sustainable. You can't just keep adding more grinds more currency without end.
After your daily reset it will be in the form of an extra chest in your daily goals section
the exclamation marks disappear after you opened each category, so hopefully only new stuff will add a exxlamation mark after that ... but somehow i expect them to reappear everytime we get new credits from dailies etc
No. Just no
just read what i wrote above
The events this month are terrible. How is there an event group called Recruiting Cardassian and not a single event in it gives out Cardassian officer shards?
STOP WITH THE DAMN PIPS ALREADY!
Great more pups we never asked for and now cannot clear message pips!! @tacit obsidian just quit with the pips!
Where did the Legate recruit options go I still had 7 pulls I was saving for this event!
There was a timer?
I bought them yesterday a one day timer seems like a really bad idea
Customer service now telling 192's members we just dreamed missing out on the last run of incursions and as such not on the list of servers to recieve the booby prize chest?
How about you fix the ridiculous of these heroic and other events. How the #$%& do you expect 40+ players to upgrade 45 buildings? Most cost 4* to compete or hundreds of days of speed ups. And it is not like you give us a lot of treasury diodes to do multiple upgrades with. And when your treasury is maxed, what then? The last two months have pushed so many players away. I have stopped spending. And you still have not made the mantis ftp or announced it. I am about done.
Might be some miscommunication here. This isn't something that comes from the Customer Service team and I don't believe has been sent out yet. I'll follow up on my side
Add a SC (System Chat) so you only see those talking in the system you're in. So you can talk to multiple people in the System instead of having to message each one of them individually.
Alg...just keeping you in the loop.š
We've had 3 people in our alliance alone quit in the past 2 months, they're really screwing up badly and don't seem to care. Guess we'll see if they realize their mistakes, giving it until the new year before deciding myself
199⬠for an officer pack and it has only 20 epic shards? Has Scopay gone mental? I swear they are just trying to milk the last bit of money from us before the last bit of their player base just leaves. This game is just a huge grindfest and pay2play anymore. Where's the fun? Everything takes ages with almost no progression, unless you pay thousands of euros. No wonder our whales stopped buying packs and went f2p...
We have have a few level 40+ quit in ours and numerous others in other alliances. Even a 50+ has gotten fed up with this.
I am half wondering if this is not an intentional attempt to lower members and merge servers. I won't be spending more $$ on the game.
Considering the game is now 100% focusing on high level spenders, expected your low level players to quit as well
I really want to quit this game now. Every time you update something, you break more things. It's tiring. I'm tired
They forget that the ftp used to feed the whales. They still do but only the savers do now. I have 59's hitting my 43 base because I have hundreds if billion in rss waiting for another spend event I want. They are trying to drain the player base dry.
Can you guys please not break something every time you do an update.
It is especially remarkable how they manage to break things that used to work perfectly fine before the update. Like the battlelogs now...you can't mark them as read anymore since the update. š
It's starting to smack of desperation to get more money in/stopping the whales leaving
If only they had the sense to realise that good content and smooth gameplay would go a long way to achieving that
To be fair, it wasn't working perfectly fine. If you marked your log as read and disconnected several minutes after, elements were still marked unread
That's the problem, nothing is working
Star bases are still broken.. base apparently on multiple nodes and for most in my fleet (claw on s133) we can't access it to do anything š
Been like It for days.
Anyone else unable to get into research to start new research since this mornings bug fix update? I just get a blurry screen, on both my phone and pc... They really need to start testing these updates before pushing them out to us to test for them...
The research issue is being worked on.
Yeah, widely reported unfortunately.
Can you please for the love of God remove the faction store flags
Click on the tabs on the left to clear the pips.
The events are simply pay 2 win. Everyone has set there miners and logged. The chat is dead because even p2w are fed up spending on this game and just logged off.
I want the game to be better but I find it more of a struggle everyday to be interested in it.
Especially since I brought the mantis. Only ship I brought and nothing but trouble and pain and the farming...shudder...
Bugs and the lag are killing everyone's interest. Nearly all of posts on here are players who have had enough of lag, bugs and the major shift to p2w. Hundreds of posts all asking for fixes and better communication. The grind as well. So much to farm and yes it's a choice but as you add more content help free up the old with increases in drops.
What's the point. One of a thousand posts on here saying what they said.
Soooo... Scopely are we merging or not?
The notifications in the faction store are ABSOLUTELY NOT AN IMPROVEMENT. When you guys rolled out the extra notifications and we pitched a fit, you promised to roll them back, NOT ADD MORE.
Also when are you gonna release a fix for this fix? I can't clear battle logs now, among other things.
@tacit obsidian Sorry to bother with a question that may been asked be for. But is there plans to get SNW strike team officers from ingame packs soon? If they are, are you able to tell when?
The Devs don't seem to know, and that should be obvious but, the purpose of a bug fix is to fix a bug, no to add another one.
why hasn't the change that anyone over agent rank being able to upgrade starbase not been reverted yet, did you run out of ways to piss off players this month?
Wow I nearly fainted when I saw the Community Manager" actually opted something
Looks like crap
Anyone know why my Inbox will not allow me to mark anything as "Read"?
You need the $99 Prime Mail pack
Dominion Space was changed with the latest update Clohma(46) was warp 90 its now Warp 120 Hyra was warp 100 now its warp 120. I don;t know what else was changed but why make this change and not tell us Why make the change at all? Do you want to continue with poor grades for the whole DS arcs by being so RUDE?
Recent āimprovementsā:
⢠Made the improvement where ship ability cooldowns now appear on ship ability icon.
⢠Made the improvement where the duration of a ship ability now appears on the ship ability icon.
These are awful because the actual time remaining is removed. Now itās a guessing game on the timing if you want to buff 2 ships for a solo armada (as an example).
Just in case anyoneās thinking of doing Solo Armadas (or any) where you are dependent on Cerritos working as advertised, do smaller. Despite the bugs being well documented on here you are to ācheck your shipsā before the armada starts - I presume thereās a visual indicator somewhere that Shield Recycling wonāt work.
Did anyone already gave feedback to Scopely that they can put that 20% increase somewhere the sun doesnāt shine.
Don't buy through apple store.
So since todays app update I can no longer mark items in my inbox as read. In addition to that when I switch ships I also have to reboot the game in order to assign crew because the officers disappear.
Well too bad they canāt get the series details correct.
@twilit mango are you guys planning on adding another option for the t4 Freesha warp core at some point ?
How about fix bugs that actually matter
Please just add an option to turn the red blips off. It's annoying. We don't need to know about the 20 ships we'll never build or the officers we can't promote yet.
Let us choose the individual areas we want to monitor
For the love of Pete, can the signal strength indicator be moved to the right of the events button? Having that popup in the middle of play, while having still good signal strength, is beyond annoying.
Wonder if or when scopely will bother to address the big issue with the update this morning, nof just the stupid pip issue
No? I figured as much.
Can scopley turn off the miner buff to other players. Useless having the buff if everyone knows you have it active!
Thanks for getting rid of that troll on server 8 that was breaking galaxy chat by using special text characters
That'd be nice but probably too complicated. I'd rather it work like a real notification and only pop up when something changes. Like acquiring enough prints for a new ship or enough shards to promote an officer. But that's to complex foe them as well.
I was thinking a checkbox in each faction store area⦠if checked, we get a red +1 if itās purchasable⦠but I agree with you, maybe too much work sadlyā¦
"Marked as Red." š
No I mean if I put on the miner buff all other players see my ship is buffed. What's the point in getting the buff if everyone knows you have it active or inactive.
Is Augment space bugged? My rank is Pawn but whenever I enter the space it says Untrustworthy and I get attacked?
If you're a friend of the augments, you are getting hunted by Bounty hunters, which hunt augments. So the higher your rank, the faster the Bounty hunters will attack you
Its not bugged, that is intended in augment space
Game appears to be broken again. Inbox cannot be reset and now completing a research project leaves you unable to start a new one.
That makes sense. If you want to mine in thr deeper areas are you just supposed to Benny Hill around the nodes then?
Either that, or you freeze the incoming hostile/get rid of it with a different ship.
I do not have time to explain either of those because I've got to work in a few mins, but I bet, some other peeps here can help ya š
Just ask this in #š¤-help-each-other
Three new players join this game and start their own alliance. One transfers to the same server while an other had already leveled up to 13. Now one of us has to start anew. Is that messed up or what?
@tacit obsidian we told you we hate the res ā!ā and that make you guys add more?
𤣠I think Scopely must be funding some reverse mortgage companiesā¦. As if Dukat wasnāt already expensive enough. This is insanity on a whole new level. Come on scopleyā¦.
I must say a lot of the players I see leave are around ops 49. They usually say they donāt have time for the game anymore.
The events literally take longer at higher ops and have more kills/points necessary for completion.
Many of the players were high spenders and some not as much, but they all had he same reason. They felt theyād have to put too much time in to ākeep upā.
Is the goal to drive off players eventually or is that an accident, because I also miss and liked events more at the lower ops lvl.
(They had strong ships too so they werenāt weak for their lvl..)
If events became easier or stayed the same at higher ops, those players would have had time for the game still and would keep spending. They were paying customers.
From a business standpoint, wouldnāt it be better to keep the players so they will occasionally spend? The events having less value at higher ops as in more points for completion for close to the same reward is a major flaw.
Everything is a worse value at higher Ops, refineries, events, and they take longer and longer to do. I was pretty happy in the game until I went to high in ops, and I have a Strong g4 ship and 4m Franklin. Iām not enjoying the events or refineries at my ops level, if I could I would downgrade my ops. Iām thinking about retiring from the game instead of pushing into the ops 50ās for nicer ships since the events get even worse there. more kills needed.
One ofbthe Devs must have got a bonus for creating those
Why are missions possible to complete out of sequence? I just completed a mission to hunt down some guy and I chose to side with him and kill his pursuer instead.
Now somehow I'm doing an earlier mission where his pursuer is alive again.
This is surely such an easy thing to fix that would make the game much more enjoyable to play?
when can we have updates that work instead of screwing up game that have more bugs that grow everything you do an update
Dear Scopely, thanks for the "genuis" idea of opening up the ASB to all players the rank of "Operative" or above. We make plans on how to best build it up for the benefit of all members and then someone comes along and messes it up.
All members below the rank of "Commodore" are now "Agents".
I'd agree with that, there is just too much to do and the grinds are awful. Other than time constraints, it's just plain boring. Even if you do spend you need to spend so much to get anywhere, which I'm not going to on a load of bug ridden pixels on a screen. I don't mind the odd pack but their expectations are just plain crazy. But I guess I'm not the kind of player Scopely wants or cares about! š
Scopes old bean, I know you have your mind set on the old pips business but I say it is rather distracting. My Butler made a suggestion which I thought was rather splendid, and I must say I'm rather surprised at the young fellow's ingenuity.
What he said, dear chap, is that it's the colour itself which is most annoying. The Vivid red is rather distracting peppered around the screen like that, and if we were to say, well colour them a light blue or green maybe to blend in with the rest of the excellent artwork, perhaps it wouldn't be so jolly distracting.
So be a gentlemen, Scopes old bean, and sort that one out for us would you?
We'll have a drink of my finest Scotch when you're back in the village, I think we have deserved it.
No thank you
<@&509691205798592532> can someone take a look at ticket number is #8385723 it has been 8 days without any action and Iām still missing 82 Moreau shards.
Iāll pass it on to Eco
Please can we get the stuck hostiles cleared in augment space. There are 4 bounty hunters stuck in yarda on server 153. It makes grinding ship XP a real pain when the bh do not spawn
I'm Ops32. I completed the mission to enable the Bajoran faction store and I got 50 bajoran rep. But as I can't use it until Ops 35, what was the point in even showing me the mission and the store!? It should have been hidden until I get to the right level. Very confusing!!!
Please give an option to turn off all red box notifications. At this point I just default to ignoring them all.
Yes Yes Yes!
and they ALL come back again after 24 hours when you clear them under factions too!
can't clear the battlelog anymore since the update...logs stay green...and the red pip remains š¤£š¤£š¤£
red pips for the Faction store: WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY???????????????????????????????????///
If you're confused, that's your fault. If you read the details and watched the content creator videos, scrolled through all the spam posts here (this one included), and maybe google searched for an hour then you'd know exactly what to do. Just like the espionage events. It's not them, it's you.
Not quite fair š¤£
But more to the point, at least the missions were available for the <35 folks this month, usually the complaint is that they aren't š¤£
It's actually bad design but thanks for your input
Did anyone else see that pack that was listed as $19.99 pack yesterday just after noon but it and get charged $199.99. Like the system could not handle 5 numbers. Anyone get a screenshot? If they donāt respond today I will dispute the charges but o know others scammed by a false price listing on my server
Nope, it was widely reported as $200 when released. Even the contents are far closer to that than $20.
For whatever reason, I can no longer acknowledge any kill mails that I get, even clicking on each individual mail to look at it doesn't grey it out or remove the red notification flag. Is this a known issue? Anyone else experiencing the same?
Yeah, this is another bug since the update yesterday, same for me
Did these so called fixes break mantis spawning again? This area should work itās a pay to play and we paid to play so why canāt you fix it
can you fix the mail box will not delet lol
I'll try to summarize it.. can you fix the game? as in top to bottom?
Addressing the mechanics of every new aspect of the game? Or is it better to see the player base( your customers ) leave?
Alright, which Dev broke the mantis buffs?
You folks at scopely are really good at fixing easy bugs and leaving the important onesā¦
Just ONE update, that doesnāt cause a laundry list of bugs, is all we ask. ONE.
Omg why do I need all these red icons in faction store? I thought the player base were quite clear that this is not useful. If everything is highlighted then itās that same as having nothing highlightedā¦
I get that sometimes arc runners want to try something different and they should, but what has happened this month is a big f you to a lot of players, especially players who have chosen Klingon. You guys introduced a new meta with the strike team crew, which is cool, and each officer having a ftp path was great. But what you've done this month with this new sourcing is that you've put the second set of officers of a newly established meta behind a pay wall. The third set will most likely be ftp as well, but if they aren't, then the same problem would remain. At least one set of the new officers were ftp while other's weren't. And not to mention that the strike crew are based on burning, which Romulan ship abilities use, and they were ftp. The Cardassian crew are based on hull breach, which Klingon ship abilities use. Obviously the next set will be based on moral, which Federation ship abilities use. And if they have a ftp path, then there's a massive imbalance.
I think the dev team has hit the point where they need to take a step back and figure out how the game can release content/updates without taking large portions of the game offline. There is definitely a disconnect between DEV/QA/Engineering that is causing constant issues with new content and bug fixes.
There should really be some indication if and how much cooldown there is on something. What a huge waste of raw lat... -_-
wouldn't it make it easier if admirals were able to give alliance permissions instead of having rank decide the permissions?
How about making it possible for everyone to see who is on in our own alliance
Seeing this a lot. Is it a new feature?
Wormhole
NO! BAD!
BAD SCOPELY! get off the couch! No Pips for you!
Seriously, what is going through your skulls?
Make all the persistent red pips go away, and only put a pip up for 24hrs when a timer on a redeemed item has expired.
āWe listened to your feedback and still didnāt care to understand it. Hereās some more useless changes to look like we care about more than your money. Rest assured, weāll add more red pips next update too.ā
@pulsar leaf per your recent announcement, ref: starbases. good start. 1. only admirals (co-Admirals), Commodores should have the ability to build from our alliances view. 2. a premier having the right to relocate is better than the right to start construction from our opinion. 3. there really needs to be a rank between commodore and premier with assignable rights there also should be a co-admiral spot. most alliances on our server run 3 admirals so there is always one online most of the time. It would be better if Scopely could just give the alliances the rights to grant permissions for the ranks they use rather than trying to set them for us. Not everyone uses rank the same as you intended cause they run their alliances differently. Just like there should be a diplomacy warning tag between neutral and enemy. You can have non-open hostilities with another alliance that you are not actually an enemy with. I think the original thoughts were there but as the game has changed so has the structure of alliances over time. With the changes to the game I believe that more manageable diplomacy and rank structures are needed in the game. thanks for moving forward but would recommend a more intensive overhaul of the rank and diplomacy settings.
I think the red pips are the revenge of @tacit obsidian for the red pips he gets when he opens his discord.
How about you fix the events and leaderboards instead if the Starbase which doesn't affect players like the rest do!
@tacit obsidian we appreciate the update regarding starbase permissions
W that being said, we asked that the ability to build be restricted to commodore and above not premiere.
While this is a little better, alliances will simply restrict or not use the premier rank and leave folks at operative instead of agent, leaving us w 4 ranks instead of 5.
Iām not entirely sure why Scopely is so insistent on this change and dragging their heels, but I would strongly suggest as a quality of life improvement that you give each alliance the ability to name the ranks and set the permissions ourselves. Let each alliance decide what risks to take and set security based on each individual allianceās needs. Then Scopely never needs to worry about rank permissions again
As one who has been playing the game since it launched. I have to say the way the game was in the first year and a half is far better then the way it is now. Sure lots of new stuff added but alot of new problems and recurring old ones that were fixed. The whole scoring system against hostiles was better.
Should just be more customizable rank permissions. Let the alliance's decide by allowing the alliance to select/un-select different permissions for ranks.
Though that would probably break the game for a few days so just leave building management to comm/admiral and everyone else allow to collect harvesters
Got a question; where are rare solo directives sourced? Alliance member has them in unc. loot exchange box, but I don't. I'm higher rep too. Is it level based?
Rare solo are in the uc chest at op 40+
I missed a couple of days but chiming in again to say server 65 is super ripe for a merge. Maybe make it fun and free up additional space by merging three servers together? Anyways...we are begging for new life on the server.
@tacit obsidian this needs to be fixed... someone this high of lvl should not be able to hit the mid lvls, players are quitting because of this
There's way too much grinding required right now, especially with everything recently added. Some of these older loops need to be closed.
Thank you scopley for being so greedy, it's given alot of us the time to realize there is a life outside of this game. Multi-day armada events with no free way to source them. I hope this is working out for you
@tacit obsidian the starbase change is a step in the right direction, but we do not want premiers to impact builds. Please restrict builds to Commodores/Admirals only. We will not have ANY Premiers if this is left in place
Where is the broken distilling rod exchange scopley
Recruit tab in officers need fill treasury b4 it will show
They get closed. Itās when you finish them
#ā-official-announcements message
The feedback was to allow Commodores and Admirals only to build modules as it was in the beginning.
Alliance Starbase authorization changes a little better but still not good. PlatinumNightmareās statement above was the feedback. Thank you.
where are the rewards for finishing events!?
I have vault to open yet canāt get the exchange for broken rods . Now the vault which was showing 6days an hour ago is showing 2days what an fāen cheat
@tacit obsidian When something is broken, such as Kira, you know the NEW and USEFUL Armada officer that is BREAKING armadas, Scopely needs to announce that so people don't continue to use broken stuff.
The converter is in officer recruit tab
Once the vault is filled, you only get 3 days to decide to unlock or not.
If you buy a desealing rod, that also has a decay timer on it, so only get it if you intend to use it soon.
Very soon Scopelyās going to be begging for new life to play the game from the amount of people leaving it šššš
Then they should love my three-way merge idea?
Seriously...it would really shake things up a bit and be way more fun and dynamic than simply bigger ship =bigger smash.
Either way...we seriously need new players that aren't just alts of current players.
Thatās really a stupid place to put it
Only Admirals and Commodores should be able to build Starbase items....Full Stop. Did ANY Scopley employee bother to engage with ANY member of ANY Alliance's Leadership for feedback before making a unilateral change that (for some alliances) fundamentally derailed their Starbase plans for upgrades and progression? That is not a rhetorical question even though the answer would seem self evident @tacit obsidian We're leaving everyone at agent rank, because you don't get to decide who gets to upgrade our Starbase, we do (no we're not promoting everyone at agent up a level either, just out of principle).
Hey Candle why don't we make the time its available for use equivalent to the average time it takes scopely to respond to a ticket.. i know we could get at least 7 days that way.. š¤£
Same for 114 !!!!!!!
Change damars officer ability to armour strip like una has shield strip that way it makes them proper counters so when explorer comes out you can do similar with dodge
That's not how Una works. She changes the shield/hull damage split over time. DOES NOT affect mitigation values. Eventually full damage goes to hull. Similar in essence to TOS Uhura/Harrison. ST Una is just cumulative where TOS Uhura/Harrison don't have such luxury
more people doesnt bring anything interesting into the game be happy you have a dead server and can do stuff overly stuffed servers are drama and kid brained adults
It isn't just a numbers thing...it is also a dynamics shake up. And no...the whale alliances have all decided if they explode it is war. Drama 24/7. Constant bs and months-long harrassment efforts. We need new life...not just warm bodies.
doesnt sound like any dynamics would get shaken up other than you want to see whales get beat up or spend more lol , merges do nothing but make more people quit 
I would love a power dynamic shake up...bring on the new whales. I myself am #5 or 6...haven't looked in a bit on the server in power. It is about the whale alliances. I don't imagine more people quitting from a merge than currently are leaving because of atrition, the scopely costs for progression, and now the distaste for dictatorships. I actually know quite a few who are only still playing in hopes of one.
What is the point in having such a long respawn time for normal armadas. It doesnt make the game more interesting or add value
An expert talking⦠š¤
I think hull breach for the entire fight would be too OP for balance if they did that.
@tacit obsidian Still no solution for the missing lvl 42 ships in the pvp event for 46+ players. 3rd time in a row on top of the small meta last tier. Really getting annoying this kind of events that are impossible.
Either source everyone way more faction credits, or acknowledge that players ship certain tiers of ships, and make events possible for everyone.
@tacit obsidian
This is the worst Arc i saw since i started this game
Completing the battle pass and having none of the new officers is completely lame. And the last thing I paid for was the Mantis and meant to space is broken with stuck hostiles in all usable space. This game is now making players regret all their purchases
I haven't played so little in 3 yrs. Bad arc, too many armada events you have to pay to even do.
Thanks for the extra personal time, I guess...
A few on 126 are not liking the fact the alliance help list opens when pressing the help button, it lags the gameplay needlessly for those playing on their phone. They're suggesting disable the list display and simply have the quick help button to free up cache and potentially help stabilise the server connection. Nobody reads the list anywayš¤£š¤
You say you listen to feedback but that utter lies! Everyone in the world has been complaining about the armada events and guess what, you shows us yet another one! Come on! Actually listen!!!!!
I especially like the daily solo armada ones. Unless you buy a pack, held onto all the directives, or can target high enough level armadas, no completing for you.
I saved everyone I could except for the 4 I used on the first event. And I barley squeaked by. I dropped 2, trying to get my crews right on the unc 46ās. (I am ops 45 with no g4 other than a lvl 30 Djelly
Oh, sorry, I see how you do it. You just need to start/die at the highest level you can reach then one and done.
At least at ops 45 you get credits/rep. At ops <40, you get a couple kira shards in the heroic and thatās it.
Yeah, the two loses where as good as a win at a 43, so wasnāt a total loss on the points, but would rather have had the creds from them š (I am still at the first level though, going up as slow as I can, learned my lesson with the outlaws, donāt want another damn time sink š
Well, going up rep levels doesnāt increase amount of credits you can get from exchange per day, so it will stall out something fierce going forward. Makes their decision to provide no credits/rep to sub40 players that much more depressing.
Is there an issue with research? Mine will not open up?
Yes, check š messages in #š¾-bug-reporting to find some workaround until its fixed
The numbers on the faction stores "improvement" is only an annoyance.. how about fixing the stability of the game rather than adding these pointless notification numbers that no one likes. Fix what matters for crying out loud.
Youāre supposed to fight for them.
Why not revert asb permissions to before, just admiral and commodores? Or better yet, why can't you put in custom permissions, like other games that do this kinda thing??
@tacit obsidian These starbase perms are killing us. One person blew through everything in the middle of the night destroying our ability to be smart about speedups and materials. Fix this please
Hi! Check #ā-official-announcements =]
That forces us to demote a lot of people to keep the rank system working properly. If that's the* final fix then we must.
Hi! Check the feedback on this page and others. You'll see that no one asked for this change and EVERYONE is asking for it to go back to how it was. Why is that so hard to understand and accomplish?
I have a suggestion: give the devs 1 hour per day to play the game they develop, using a 2-3 year old phone or tablet, on a public account on a public server (not a clean dev server). I think a lot of the issues will then get solved quickly and I don't think we will be given more red pips as an "improvement".
@tacit obsidian what was the reason for changing the starbase access. Wasnt your Ireland team coning up with another knee jerk idea possibly?
So again, this change is so that operatives can collect resources, they should no longer be able to start buildings or use speedups
If this isn't the case please let me know, it should be as before, Commodores and Admirals can start builds and use speedups
Oh sorry Premiers as well, do we not feel these are trusted members that can assist with building the Starbase?
No. Comms and admirals only is what 100% of the feedback on these channels has been.
@tacit obsidian honestly, the only correct fix is to put it back the way it was.
Understood and I'm happy to follow up about this. Really appreciate your thoughts
Ya know your tax dodge only reason i can see why you have a office in ireland.
Latest is premier commodore admiral . Seriously why change something that wasnt broken YET!!!
players repeatedly asked for turn off red pips but you introduce more. The logic off such stupid beyond comprehension.
3 folks online right now in my alliance. All 3 hate the actian dailies as it consumes so much time. Please do something about it. Triple the output or something please @tacit obsidian. And no the answer is not Prime Actian Yield Pack
Red marks are helpful but I don't need one for every single item everywhere
We do not. We want it restricted to a few individuals
Any of the others unshielded? š
@tacit obsidian oh a compliment my green has started to increase instead of decreasing
Actually been brainstorming on rev deuce channel the -tavern . Its ironically funny to here and other discord channels you seem be blind players coming up with some great ideas. Why would you listen to a few but many ideas. ?
Were your greatest resource stop trying to disappointment daily. Scopely is internet game turn the tap to help your players instead of boring us to tears. You have to give to recieve . The packs should be value to $ not a rip off
You are always welcome brother
Buy 150 to 200 apples for $100 or scopely 10 to 25 apples for $100. Get with it alot people hurting with inflation food fuel ect more important to flat out greedy
I'm not trying to call you out personally brother. I do trust my premiers to have my back anytime just not all of them to be smart on the clicks ya know. I did not feel this change was needed at all. commodores and admirals was working perfectly IMO
Information and why it qas managed orginally by commodores admiral. Been alot better than un announced change ...thinking logically
This is your game scopely that the information provided by you i consider bethetic. Proofs in the pudding scopely and as your community manager promised @tacit obsidian promised... actions speaks louder than words....looking forward to seeing it !!!
We already demoted everyone down to Agent when the unannounced change had happened and an unknowing player went and used tons of speedups and plasma on useless buildings and left us unable to build anything. So for us the latest change for operatives is actually OK, because it was announced... assuming it works as intended.
Is it normal for desealing rod to disappear? Ive exchanged the parts in a rod during a gone treasury, wanted to use it at the current one, but its gone as my 4k parts aswell...
I mean theres nowhere a describtion, saying its only working on current treasurys or a specific amount of time etc.
And imho its a joke, to let stuff disappear what got collected over 12 months or so...š©
Use or lose is the way it is
We have enough trouble with our commodores tbh. We had to limit upgrades to 3 people only because things were getting started left right and centre, and we were trying to work to a specific upgrade plan. It nearly lost us a few members as it was, let alone allowing all and sundry access.
It was like this with the territory boosts too, running out of supplies because a few people didn't really know how much we had incoming and what was to be prioritised. Even with that, we have limited it to mostly 3 players.
It's good to keep things as controlled as possible
Can we get rid of the manually activating mantis exos and increase the prime % of bonus loot gained from mantis hostiles. Maybe add research to gain increased loot % from hostiles for free to play. The loop adds too much screen time to a game that already feels like a second job. Letās get those stuck hostiles fixed please. Itās taking far to long.
Would all be solved with regards to ranks if you just had tick boxes on what rank was allowed to do what and let the Admiral decide
Where is this written? Saw about that no warning etc ingame
I have seen a lot of complaints about total necessary daily screen time needed to complete what players want. Here's a couple ways that y'all could address this:
-add refinery efficiency. Could be added to the refinery building, or research.
-add more (f2p accessible) refits/projectiles that modify hostile loot.
-decrease daily goal hostile kill counts by 20-50%.
-add officer with lower deck ability that modifies hostile loot
-add ability for leader to launch armadas at will
-add ability to set default refining preferences and a "refine all" button.
-add ability to set default gift/chest redemption preferences and a "claim all" button
-add ability to use Latinum to quick complete (some) daily goals
Can we show more then 99 items on the pips please? I currently canāt see the timed items returning because it always shows 99. Because of that I donāt know if a new item has been added..
Go through each faction store. It will reset to 0. Once timed items are back it will go to 99
Armadas again š! Just where do you expect everyone to get directives for sooooooooo many armada events! Ridiculous!
At least this one could be completed in 1-2 armadas I guess š
Exactly this. Even among Commodores, we won't necessarily have everyone up to speed on starbase plans as different Commodores will have different areas of responsibility. So actually allowing admirals to select specific members for specific tasks such as starbase management would be a huge improvement.
Can you make the pips purple please? Purple is cool and easier on the eye than the vivid red. It also fits in with the colour scheme.
@fallen epoch and because of that sidenode somewhere (its not even written down in items describtion) ive got lost every part collected last year!? This cant be true, c'mon.
Yesterday ive openend support ticket ingame but still no answer
Yes itās true. Itās been said for a whole year since the treasury released. The rod decays after the event is over. This month they didnāt give an IGN but on every other month when there is one itās always written in there
That is absolutely nonsense. Why would that be the one and only currency that ādecays,ā written or not? I converted my broken rods during the Barclay treasury and decided not to open it. So youāre saying Iāve now lost my full rod after saving broken rods for 6 months?!
this is true, it has been said that the rod has to be used as soon as you have it, else its gone; BUT iirc during one of the last treasury arcs (the one that rewarded a full unlock of st una) that everyone was saying you must use it now as the reward is so fantastic OR save it as a gamble for the future ... the part you should be looking at is SAVE ... how can you save something that cant be saved. This is probably why there are players who are confused.
Why why why do these drop in DS? Anyone up there are WAY beyond needing them and the upgrade to scrap is negative.
If Scopely insist on keeping the rod decay time, then the solution would be to add a warning pop-up when you try to convert the parts to make it clear that the rod MUST be used before the Treasury Vault closes again.
šÆ
What purpose does the decay time serve?
Losing your free rod as soon as possible
Purpose? None. Just another hidden game mechanism. Confusing to some. And certainly frustrating to those not understanding how the rod is lost if not used.
Decaying rods means you can't buy a $5 one today, and use it next month for the $20 box.
If your rod's decayed, you should contact CS. I've seen reports of players getting their parts back (for those who've exchanged them) and parts do not decay, haven't seen the results of those who bought one though.
The treasure has a clear timer ā± main menu. In the gamers primary field of view ā¦ā¦
Nothing is on the Rod. Zero. Nothing to inform the gamer.
Just a hidden description buried deep in the game mechanics when treasure building was released, and even there, the fact that the rod is use or loseā¦.is vague at best.
And incorrect Candleā¦.sorryā¦.really disagreeā¦..as, all a gamer need do, is NOT assemble the rodā¦.just collect broken piecesā¦.and then CHOOSE when to assemble itā¦..
However, this choice assumes the gamer really understands how the rod will go away. Which is ONLY detailed in the vague treasury building description. Just sad š now.
Incorrect about what? everything in that post is factual of how it works.
Not chatting about how it works ā¦.. I donāt care anymore about how it works ā¦..
Just dissatisfied with how the information ā¹ļø was presented to the gamer. How the gamer is informed on how the rod works. Every gamer knows the treasure building goes away (big clock ā° in heir face).
Sorry, not every gamer knows the rod also goes away. Fact.
Sure, np. I'm not defending the design. Just giving players the information about how Scopely's choices affect us.
The mods are players volunteering for making sure the server discord rules are kept. He is just a player being helpful, its not his fault.
Scopely, the grind is too muchā¦you are losing players. Fix it or the game will die. And donāt fix it with more $100 packs. The load must be lightened.
Iām not a whale by any means, but I am a consistently paying customer. I am finding myself losing interest in the game compared to the prior week. With all the issues that āfixesā and new launches create, this nonsense about desealing rods decaying, general lag and performance issues. It really interferes with the user experience. I donāt want to quit the game bc I love it, but Iām kind of naturally drifting away bc my diminishing interest is causing me to forget to log in or just not care about events enough to grind them out, etc.
Not expecting a response or anything. Just a bit of sentiment from a concerned user.
Would be nice if any of us got a response but as per usual they are silent. Paying customers ignored and paid features that havenāt worked properly since release. Now battlelogs donāt clear, default error 5 is still a thing and the lag is just too much sometimes. Yet they want a premium for this game, new officers this arc are a pay āfeatureā and you wonder why you get backlash from your player base?
If you had significantly cheaper packs targeted at specific things (Like resources for a building) I'd actually be tempted to buy. 200 euro packs that don't even give a full epic officer unlock seem worthless imo. Also some of the older activities need condensing into a Daily goal or something that pays out some of the resources, Borg and swarm are good examples. Swarm armadas need to have a different currency to start as I'm not wasting 100 Rare directives, which are hard enough to get as is, on a daily goal. The team working on the game seems to have lots of new and fresh ideas (Bajoran stuff I actually like the setup of) but the older stuff is being left by the wayside and is just boring.
STFC ist kaput!
So the rods decay? Like the ones you earn to trade, or single one you use to unlock the treasury?
Full rods decay after the treasury is gone if not used. Each rod is unique to its current treasury.
The broken pieces stay to be xchanged whenever
Please take the red pups off the faction tab
Well that was pointless for both parties. š
You mean like all PVP in this game? lol.
I guess it made him feel better about how much money he spent š¤·āāļø
The system is designed to invite players to fail. If we get multiple warnings about using a virtually useless token to get into a locked space, why no warning about āuse it or lose itā with the desealing rods?
are you serious?
o, that was there the other day too š
Your customer support is absolute garbage. You should be ashamed at the level of service vs. the ask for purchases. Thieves.
Anyone level 22?
This recruit special in the multiphasic store is missing someone....
So no dukat exchange?
Ops 39 player- syndicate event requires 62,700 syndicate XP. This is absolutely ridiculous and I donāt care that it says āheroicā.
Ops 42 needs 313.5k..equally undoable.. Iām currently 112/330 and get 17 a day⦠Scopely maths not in this universe
Same 313.5k points requires 62,700 syndicate xp. Clearly set by some idiot who doesnāt play the game.
It's HEROIC mate
Heroic means Pay to Win š¤£
But there are no packs to BUY!
That is just the usual Scopely move...
You can buy Packs in scopelystore to get the stuff for the XP š
Completely unnecessary, I can tell what I have available by looking at top right to my faction credit. Can we stop with the pointless changes and really invest in fixing the actual bugs in the game please š
please point to the pack
Buy enough of any pack and then convert multi-phasic credits into syndicate xp.
it's easy! use your brain! [/sarcasm]
it costs a small amount of 55.000 multis to get this event done. easy
Haven't got that in my store š¤
Pretty sure nobody asked for this. Get kicked out of game for connection failureā¦every single pip resets to unread
Go to the Browser Site from scopely, Log in with scopely ID, buy Packs and you get multphasics
With this you can buy XP for the Event š
OK, now show me on the Exclusive recruit Special where Sisko is in the available officers!
Sisko ist Not in the Pack, but has nothing to do with the TOP of getting XP for the SLB Syndicate
the syndicate event is a pure GIVE-US-LOTS-OF-MONEY event. š¦
I'm just saying this whole thing is a mess.
Woooohoooooo $copley FIXED IT. (sarcasm)
How nice. They limited your spending so you can only buy 1700⬠worthā¦.
Yep.
All your moneys belongs to us. Give it NOW.
cackle
Maybe they should be honest about it and simply state:
In order to play our game and get/stay in the top 10 of your ops level brackets, we expect you to spend at least an amount of $ X.XXX,xx a month.
At least we can finally complete all the day's events
Here's some general feedback. The general sentiment throughout our alliance is that this is arguably the worst arc since arcs were released.
So many people quitting because the game is being driven into the ground. š
Edit: between the content of the arc itself, the constant pushing to spend which feels so much worse than at any point in the past, and the general state of the game (time required to play, bugs etc).
Don't forget the highly increased daily screentime that got added due to the features introduced in the last arcs, such as Mantis and Actian farming as well as the Bajoran faction and the JemHadar hostile/armada farming.
And that after their promise to reduce screentime.
@Commander_Shally#9744 see I don't mind extra screen time if there no pay way around it to help the free to play. But with every one they made an easy pay around.. but even with the new faction they've made it so you can just buy the credits. Making it even more difficult in a bigger gap between spinders and free players. It's a new faction was only grind in armadas. It wouldn't be so bad because everybody would be on the same playing field but again they added boxes to work around needing credits
The problem is the fact that unless you play very casually and only use a small part of the features it offers, one is pressed to invest amounts of time that come close to what in many countries would be considered having a full-time job !
Just sum up for yourself how much time you need to do all the dailies and add to that the amount of time you need to do the battlepass events.
Then maybe, just maybe add some time for alliance activities such as waging war, doing territory take overs or defenses...
I bet if you take the game half-way seriously you'll come to an amount to 4+ hours a day !
Yes only way scopely can lessen the hours is implementin auto hunting to pve. Scan, Auto, Attack do the hostile dialog then selector dialog which hostiles to autohunt. Currently I cannot do borgs much everyday as its too time consuming multiple rounds on 33. I Prefer doing just daylies and swarms and now as must hunt jem hadars 2 rounds as hostiles drop 2x too little amount loot.
It would be easier to just lower the requirements on all daily grinds. Example: One trip attacking eclipse hostiles would be multiple days of turn ins. That way you don't have to do every grind every day.
They need to up the level or Borges zones with lots higher rewards payout
Maybe so but you still need yourself click 6 runs hostiles per day and wait 6-10min fly times. Id rather put autopilot and send vidar hunting autopilot and grind eclipses myself or when im work could do pve on autopilot during office hours.
Didn't they nerf faction rep impacts from armadas?
How?
Or are you talking about the research š¤
Just another friendly notice to the scopely stfc folks that SERVER 65 DESPERATELY IS IN NEED OF A MERGER. Please put us next in line. Pretty please? We need new overlords and fresh voices.
My preference would be server 34.
Do you mean 64?
Nope, I want an older server
Leaked screenshot of the new update: https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/736801495441211435/1032217749184839710/Pips.png
what about clearing off any old currencies that won't be used again š¤£
dang you bought all the extra researches (my name applies well)
Still no low-cost option? Not sorry, I'm not dedicated on giving you the price of 2 full fledged new game on any console for that. 50ā¬, maybe, but definitely not a hundred
If you paid for 2 x Ā£20 research queues thatās the only one you will now see
They are way too greedy⦠It's disgusting.
Does anyone know if Scopely is working on iPhone 14 viewport issues? I currently have to use my phone in both landscape orientations to play the game.
How about doing some end of the year cleaning by exterminating the bugs?
It was in the M47 patch notes and seems it wasnāt fixed so I passed on pictures of the UI still being messy. We should hopefully see it fixed in a future update
Love that Iāve paid money for two extra research queues and Scopleys glitch means they stopped working today
With the latest from @tacit obsidian , why donāt we get other things cleaned up:
- Transporter patterns for maxed out officers go away
- completed events move to the right
- increase timed chest rewards
- I think the community can keep this going
Itās been said already, but the first one doesnāt need changing
Do you mean taking them away from the transporter pattern store when maxed? That makes more sense
Iām just going to come out and say the math on the Dukat pulls is awful. Spending 32k Ultra-Recruit Tokens in order to get 80 shards is a joke. That compares with 480 shards youād get by spending in the regular Ultra Recruit tab. Moreover, you only have a 15% chance of actually pulling Dukat shards. So youāre looking at 12 shards with potential for more- and of course that could go much worse. I think one of the worst parts is that that full-Dukat unlock chance is only 0.5%. Thatās brutal. In the regular Ultra Recruit, thereās a 1% chance of unlocking an Epic Officer, and 4% chance of unlocking a rare officer. That means youāre not only sacrificing 400 officer shards, but youāre also sacrificing the chance for full unlock. To add insult to injury, you also need to consider that 32K worth of ultra recruit tokens is the equivalent of opening 40 chests. Each chest opened has the chance 1% chance of full Epic unlock and 4% Rare unlock. For the Dukat exchange, youāre sacrificing 32 chest openings. So that means you have 32 fewer chances to score a full unlock. Coupled with the mere 0.5% chance of unlocking a Dukat, your odds are looking really bad. All my numbers are for the max trade in, so you can simply divide all the variables by 2 to get the other answer. But I really feel like this is unacceptable. People may spend the ultra-recruit tokens they saved on this without running all the calculations I did. The amounts need to be adjusted to make it at least a little more reasonable. This reminds me of the absurd math that got the Elite Faction Tokens approved. And the ājust donāt buy itā answer is also not acceptable. I didnāt, and I wonāt (Iām notorious for not being able to save my ultra-recruit tokens! Lol). But even if this doesnāt impact me, it might impact other players who carefully save their Ultra-Recruit Tokens. Iāll get off my soapbox now⦠š
Tell me how you really feel
Hey Scopely, I would prefer a clean up option for the player inventory instead of the store. Let us turn these useless items in for something.
That or move them to the right so non-maxed officers are first. Itās either a flag or priority queue. Unless they buggered it, those should be easy wins
Merge s65
At OPS29, why would scopely put G2 mats in the syndicate pack in the store? I wanna buy it but I want G3 materials instead. š¦
I'm ops 41. This can't be right.
Looks like the lowest tier £5 treasury. Which likely is due to if you spend very little or your f2p
So $40 a month is considered f2p? I don't understand...
Seems a bit abusive to be offering g2 to an ops 41 player.
Figures I pushed two ops levels hoping it would remove the g2.
Iām not sure tbh. The algorithm sometimes doesnāt get it right. Bp doesnāt count towards spending from what I have seen, it seems to be other packs
Shame I seem to be caught up on the wrong side of it. I have a friend with the same purchase history if you discount battle passes.
His shows about 1500 diodes.
Heh. A chicken & egg kind of deal. Some packs that I'd actually purchase if they came with G3 instead of G2 materials but they won't start having G3 until I start buying packs.
They're in the business of abusing the people who bring paying players in. If we were all gone, the whales would have to beat off each other, and that's not much fun, now is it.
This is the 4th time I've been locked out of my account (my previous complaint was deleted by the mods) because they can't put a "are you sure" button next to the single-move-button to connect two emails accounts to one game account. Cause THAT makes sense.
Not saying I'm not to blame. I chant to myself "No, yes, accept" each time I switch accounts on my device, but this time I was at work and got distracted by stupid work stuff. Now we wait the 6-72 hours (hopefully) to get me my primary account back.....bad design, people. Just plain bad design. Made to cause problems. And WHY WOULD SOMEONE WANT A SINGLE ACCOUNT ATTACHED TO TWO OR MORE EMAILS?!?!?
How about since we're doing some spring cleaning, can we please do something to offload the metric ton of crap we all have in the "other" tab of our inventory! It looks like my gtandson's toy bin.
Looks wrong
If $copley is doing spring cleaning, how about firing the devs and getting someone who actually plays the game onto the team?
Slow mode... What's the outrage today š¤
How about cleaning up your in game store by making the prices something most players can afford like 5, 10, and 20. Unless you truly only care about the whales on this game and the rest donāt matter to scopley.
What good would it do to hire some random nobody who doesn't know how to code?
Yeah itās just crap this month even if I had a rod I wouldnāt spend it
All I know is that Rev Duece and DJz told us to spend ultra recruit tokens but I heard hoard more
Don't blindly listen.. Spend if you think it's worth it not someone else just influencing
So yes keep hoarding.
A real dev who also plays the game
I wouldn't even mine them closing the gates to the server if they just self destructed all the hostiles and put a timer on them to actually reset them after a certain period of time to fix the ghost hostiles. @true zealot This whole arc been about greed.. Why you think they put quark in everything. They are trying to be snarky and dumb as heck at the same time
The dukut ultra...had some ds9 officer shards...cool...the tng has some picard shards. Sweet. NOT digging the current ultra iteration. Too many ferangie... I guess I don't mind an extra ultra gacha, if it's got relevant heroes. You know the heroes from 6 arcs ago, forever unlocked and never promotable.
Maybe Scopely should invest in gameplay experience, functionality and reliability instead of rushing to push out new content that breaks the game.
Nope, Iāve got the same box for $30.99 and Iāve been told itās right š
guess that means I spend to much š¤£
First step scopely needs to do is get rid of the intern pushing the buttons for mass packs. They are going to destroy your game. Second, start listening to the community and provide real support while you still have people to listen to and help.
Converting this game to pay to play will kill your revenue. Turning deaf ears on everyone while marketing tries to sell all the things including event participation is going to ruin you.
Lastly, stop denying and closing all support requests without doing anything. Nobody enjoys this, you're going to cause people helping you identify issues to quit reporting them. I don't even waste my time putting in tickets because that's all it is anymore. You've wasted enough of my time with the one's I did, and refused to do anything in every single ticket I have put in. I can't be the only one. You're not even trying.
If you don't repair the damage you have done with your community and do it soon, you won't have one, and it'll be your fault.
I agree 100%
I had an issue with an event last week. I put in a ticket and even offered options for resolution. The only contact Iāve had so far besides the automated bot was one person responding and asking if my issue was still ongoing and needed addressed, which I responded āyes it wasā. A week later and Iāve had no resolution from that or even additional contact.
I donāt know whatās happened in the last six months to a year with regard to support. Support used to be fairly quick and provide very good service. Now itās a word I canāt say on this form.
Do Jemāhedar actually reward the megachest promised on the rewards screen? Reviewing my battle log shows no chests from any of the hundred or so Iāve done today. Several alliance members report the same results.
If you're really trying to make people hate this game. Keep this crap up.
Fix the lag
Olfi, you like the lag šš„š§Ø
Got some screenshots of the contents and Rod price?
Sent them to candle already. But seems like info is not consistent
Ok thanks. Yeah something might be off
Does anyone at scopely know anything about ux? Why would anyone believe this is a useful feature?
Pips are back, battle logs remain read and now I have a giant bubble in the galaxy map for some reason š
Anyone else not able to access Research today? Finished a research and can't access research nodes since on either PC Client or Updated Android client...
Anyone else noticing that Actian exocomps are not being applied to the mantis while grinding hostiles?
can scopely just run events to keep us ticking over add no new content till you fix the mass off conflicts u have in your code due to not repairing the code before u add new content or get a team together to rebuild the game on a server make sure it works the transfer each server onto new game maybe then you will still have players left to play and sort out times it takes to research the higher ops u are 200days plus to change up ops that is why people are leaving
Agree, but can they also go through the whole game and simplify all the convoluted mechanics, and find a way to reduce the grind.
Myself and many people in my alliance are hardly engaging with the new content because itās convoluted and takes time to understand, and thereās too much to do anyway so why bother getting involved with something new. Iām collecting uncommon solo directives and the basic bajoran rep pull as they maybe used later, but thatās it.
Iāve never see such a low sentiment and game time as the last few weeks.
#FixActianSpace
You have to double refine in Mantis refinery to make the first 2 steps. Think you need to buy stuff to get last 2 steps.
Since when are SMS events for whales only Scopely? No way i can come close to event getting first tier in this event with 300 xp per day pulls (ops 41, syndicate lvl 15). Got no Mantis since I'm mostly f2p. Looks like a f2p SMS but for ppl who BOUGHT the Mantis ergo not f2p š©
Something more to consider @tacit obsidian
- Cerritos Shield Buff is not working (at least not against Solo armadas)
- Cloaking also does not seem to work properly against Solo Armadas
Fix it, for god's sake. Or buy yourselves some testing team, and fix it before you implement new stuff. I liked the game's challenge to play tactical, optimize your crews and research, but if stuff does not work, it's even more disappointing than those stupid p2w events.
Jeah your 100% right there!
There isnāt any customer service. I put in a ticket Saturday, they got back to me yesterday asking if my issue was resolved and if not I could open another ticket. Theyāve abandoned all pretense of community engagement. I have no idea why they maintain this discord as they obviously donāt care about the players beyond dollar signs.
Until the whales quit whalingā¦ā¦ nothing will change. Scopely doesnāt give one single š© about the player base other than how much cash we spend.
I have a mantis, and even refining for 3800 syndicate points a day this cannot be finished. This isnāt a mantis event itās a very concrete pack purchasing event. Scopely are moving towards total pay to win.
You mean Pay to Play
No, at least these auction style events are pay2win as whoever buys most packs wins.
Pay 2 play can be relatively innocent in contrast to that (like a monthly subscription as with games like WoW).
But of course also pay 2 play can be abusive (like if you have to fork out 100ā¬+ for every little new feature )
I Need Scopely to Do 3 Things #1 Allow a Way to Lock Faction Reo or Keep it I Started this Game 12/26/21 I'm Ops 48 in the Top Alliance and Frequently Go to a Few Smaller Alliances to Help and teach Players #2 Bring The Vidar Skin, 11/11 & Nanoprobes into the Game to Promote Officers and Even Add a Mantis Skin for Grinding All those would help me cut my game time from approx 8hrs to 6 A Day, Finally Officer sourcing which include 11/11 I need 4 officers 11/11, Data, Mavery ang Data. Mavery not so much will have him by December however the could make Harrison, Betor or Such easier to promote. All these things would help us esp the Alliance Rep. FIX TAL. I would also love to see these new Faction packs drop in Prices and All Research should be 1 Tier. We Our Losing players on our server Quickly and by double figures weekly. Less Greed More Fun. Please start Paying Attention Scopely
Just FYI. Scopely gave a typical Scopely response āYou can produce desealing rods with broken rods in the futureā then gave me a link to some help website as if it would bring clarity. The site says nothing about decaying rods. š
@north perch @crisp dome @torn saffron @tacit obsidian What is the ETA on REAL FIX for the Mantis/Actian mechanic? This is pay content only and you delivered a broken product. If this is not fixed soon, I will dispute the charge with my credit card company
So I now have the 4000 broken rods and can't use them? WTF!
Can you please add more brackets for the elite Cerritos grind. I cannot possibly compete with 49s. Add more brackets
Why cant you use them? Conversion chest should be in the recruit tab
Have you completed your 700 points for the vault? I don't think the conversion option appears until the vault is ready to open.
Now 20 solo armadas vs 10 before?? Are you kidding us <@&509691205798592532>
Worst arc so far. All officers behind pay wall. Events that are pay to complete. Fed up with this now. Getting worse all the time. What happened to looking after the players. Should we have to spend £500+ a month for new officers and to complete events. What a joke. If this is the way the games going they cam shove it.
I think someone needs to check on the Arc Runner or whoever has been putting out these events.
Upgrade the Tresury should be before the unlock event and many have been upgrading as they move up in ops.
Today 10/20 an daily milestone event was planned but didnāt appear.
A mantis event that has nothing to do with the mantis.
We have alot of hostile hunting and the BP event is WORMS.
This person needs medical attention, something is wrong.
Are these events worth your time Not at all, hours of grinding and you get very few rewards. it will be nice that there will be less grinding in the game. Events to do that quickly, which doesn't take much of your time and gives value to advance in the game. Is this really that terribly difficult? It looks like it. Do the people at Scopely themselves play this game every day? Doesn't seem like it. They have absolutely no idea what they're putting out. I'm really not going to spend hours on silly time consuming events that don't bring any extra progress to the game. Time is precious, and you only live once. Scopely doesn't seem to see the value of that
10 officer shards for 90 quid. Scopley on drugs?
So.... I just want to confirm. The Espionage Event is the original track this week? We aren't missing a meta or anything that would require specific selection of an officer to investigate?
Just a quick mention that I love @tacit obsidian's idea of mastery research mentioned in Talking Trek - Math and Mugging... episode; as an idea to "close out"/reduce grind of different loops
same first time ivāe heard a good idea
You know they don't play every day. The bugs and issues would be fixed if they did.
My honest feedback at the moment is I feel scopley are taking the mick out of players. 10 officer shards for 90 quid has to be the final straw for me along with everything else that's behind these silly £90 pricetags. So much greed coming from this company. They are catering only for top players that spend loads of money. 99% of players cant afford £500-£1000 per month to be able to compete on a game.. Everything behind silly price tags. They need to remember they are selling NOTHING. NOTHING OF ANY PHYSICAL VALUE but yet we get less for more all the time. I have given this game several years and much money but not happening any more. I am considering talking to my bank a solicitor and going to look at recovering funds because I feel this game is more of a long con than anything else. I am also considering getting in touch with Google play with all the evidence I have collected over the years. It's a shame. I like the game but lately so many bugs. Things don't work right. Absolutely stupid prices on everything. You work hard on something to have it made useless. It feels more like I'm constantly being scammed rather than having fun these days. This is not what gaming is about. Scopley is out of touch with the current financial crisis in the world. They are out of touch with the players. Just some silly scam what u can business model that's loosing them players all the time. I doubt this feedback will be listened too.I doubt scopley even care about the uptick in players leaving. Seems to me that its all about £££. I am really annoyed about this all. What started as a good game has become a piss take.
I got it done in 5 minutes?
well this event is pish keep going scopely and I will be joining the line of players leaving sick of your red flags telling me utter rubbish on game points are a waste take u days to win rewards are terrible cooperate greed screw us for every thing and give us nothing in return make us pay as its the only way your going to proceed in game everywhere else in the world dropping prices due to living cost what do u do NOTHING or maybe let's put prices up using the reason their stupid enough to play game in 1st place
See if this were my business. And I had unhappy customers I'd be reaching out to them. See what I could do to make them happier. After all. Happy customers makes for a successful business. We just get ignored and silenced. My last message removed as it was posted. Silence the unhappy players. Good job scopley. That solves the issue for sure.
Is there a way we can have a territory take over with out lag and the app crashing?
@ornate moth will cost you. 20x Ā£90 packs a month š
Maybe donāt use profanity and it wonāt get automodded š¤·āāļø. Just a thought.
Anyone else having constant crashing when trying to access research via queue or building itself?
@fallen epoch I think your automodding is a bit sensitive. If I was being abusive towards another player. Or being a bully. Anything along those lines I would completely understand my post being removed. However in this instance was venting frustration and unhappiness at the direction the game seems to be taking. My post may have contained a word considered as profanity however where I am from it's very common for people to talk this way. Most of us are adults here so i don't see a suitable reason for removing the post. Removing the posts of unhappy players appears that we are being silenced. I run my own business. Would never block or ignore customer feedback. Whether I agreed or not or liked or disliked what they had to say.
Canāt be sensitive if you used profanity. You can say what you mean without using profanity.
@fallen epoch well I won't argue about it. I will try and keep my words clean. I have said what I had to say for today. It's clear from players leaving in our server by the day. Conversations I've had with so many players that are unhappy and considering leaving but hanging on in the hope that scopley actually starts listening to the comunity more that I am not wrong to be feeling the way I do. I am not alone in my unhappiness and frustration. I have lost faith that scopley will fix bugs, address the players issues. Sad really.
Iām still trying to figure out why Walter is censored. šš¤£š
In game?
Yes⦠had to wait for cool down to respond. Been that way since the start.
Likely it means something rude in another language or itās a name of a very bad person. I know a few names like that are censored
Sega is censored in game too. š¤·š»āāļø
Well, have you seen the big Lebowski š¤£šš¤£ might explain it
So flip the switch on legit concerns raised by a long term player to be about profanityā¦while never addressing the concerns raised. I see what you did thereā¦š
Their point was very valid. Just needs to follow the server rules. Which you agreed to on entry to this server.
I think most get that concept. But to the point, is there any thought to player retention? Do the decision makers concern themselves with issues in game or is just going to be a blitz of new content that cost silly money for the life expectancy of the game?
OH THEY BETTER NOT BE MAINLY SOURCING THE MANTIS THROUGH INCURSIONS ARE YOU KIDDING ME
Reduce the caps please
So I guess not answering in this case gives a pretty clear picture where priorities lie
Yes. Look in the area of discord for reporting bugs. Lots of ways to get into certain research queues via other roundabout ways. Itās ridiculous but at least we can do some research.
Iām a volunteer. Itās not my place to say
I am a light spender. $120-$220 a month. Iām no longer spending on the game until scopely lessens the time required to be competitive. Please consider doing the same.
@tacit obsidian Just read your official announcement. Regarding the incursion, could you please set a information to all players, which servers will take part and which will not? Thanks in advance.
Apologies then, thanks for taking the time to answer. I would think that should be a clear mission statement to anyone repping for them.
Are we supposed to 𤮠or just put up a 3 day shield and refuse to play this garbage event?
@tacit obsidian for the third month in a row, server 88 is BEGGING to be informed in advance if we will be left off again. The first time, we were informed 5 hours after start time we were being skipped. Last month, it was over an hour after start. Because of two months in a row of this, most of our higher level players said they would not be participating and would be shielding up and going offline for the duration of the Incursions because we keep being told we are included only to be told after the event start was supposed to happen that no, we are left out again. And each month, we voice our displeasure and ask that things be made right and they never are. It's a simple ask. Let us know preferably within the next 7 days, if we are definitely being skipped. Pure and simple.
Informing all players beforehand if the incursion will or won't happen on their servers will and also would have spare/d us a lot of time and work, especially regarding diplomacy and information of the players who have no clue about that. Just FYI: Server EU 110
Since you took away the extra sms/meta completion in the espionage event. Should have upped the rewards so people could continue to acquire the things they wanted from the event store
Meta is next week
Yet again Scopely don't listen to their player base, you know, the ones that keep you employed, stuff your Incursions
Do we have any information as to how many mantis BP youāll be able to realistically source during an incursion?
No but I would imagine it would take a few incursions to be able to do so
Oh my god, you canāt take a clue- the vast majority want none of this incursions garbage- STOP forcing this crappy game interruption on the masses- we lose team members every time
THANKS
TO THE SCOPLEY SUPPORT TEAM ā¦. HELPING FIX MY ISSUE š±š
They get a lot of grief, and yeah from me as wellā¦.. this time they were timely and helpful.
Going according to plan then, why want lose paying customers bit confusing.
I like incursions.
@tacit obsidian communication is poor, as usual. Please communicate changes to schedule properly and update all relevant calendars in game.
Has there been any mention of why the business as usual event was left out ?
take it you didn't see the shocking package that had in the store for nearly Ā£150 the other day š¤¦āāļø
24 hrs 48hrs notice of a change sure this would be tos wouldnt it . !!! In game news as not all have discord ect
Was there a change in how worms work? Shield strip almost instantly, then at the end I went to warp out and it was delayed like I had been venomed. But all 3 ships.
Yes, cant figure out how to fix it
Check pinned in #š¾-bug-reporting
If i understand correctly, most of this type of games dont actually care about player retention. As long as the player base finds itself in a positive net influx, retaining players is neglected. Ive seen it in more than one game/company.
Actian space (33 to 39 systems) all have broken apex hostile on server 44. Is there ever going to be a fix for this?
Adding you to the list
Can you add S37 if we aren't on there already? Been quite annoying between stuck apex' and the lvl 38 system only having 2 hostiles in it
Done
Level 38 system is currently bugged but itās intentional
If you arenāt spending a grand a week you arenāt the player base they care about
"TNG Ultra Recruit Special" where's Data?
There is so much broken stuff, and i am sure events are designed. How can we bore players to tears. Than make fun or interesting
Indeed, Data is ridiculously difficult to source!
@tacit obsidian any word of when the subspace relay unlock will be available for those who were not of the appropriate level at the time?
Some player got it today it seems. Are you op 25 now?
I like the 2 at a time UNLESS someone shows up and kills the second one....then it is an eternity between hostiles.
But on s65 the boosts rarely, if ever, work...if you are keeping a list. š
Leave the 3 buff and apex remove non usual hostiles and increase the spawn rate 2 to 3 times please
Is there anything being done to restore the correct number of hostiles to each system? The stuck hostile script does not cause them to respawn when they are cleared and the number of active hostiles has fallen drastically in some systems.
@tacit obsidian is incursions the only way to source mantis bps? If so, that is a hot pile of garbage and shouldn't be tied together. Incursions are nothing but pvp with another server, where the whales just swing their ships around. Mantis bps should be sourced like the Cerritos or how the amalgam eventually landed in the cosmic cleanup store.
incursions and mantis sort of make sense... the manits allows debuffing of player ships which allows you to blow folks up... pvp ship for a pvp event...
PvP is almost a secondary aspect of the mantis for most compared to the refinery giving Syndicate xp and SNW officer shards though
No thats not a pay to win model, thats where it becomes pay to participate model.
Add server 43 too please :). 36 is missing its apex completely.
Please do not tie Mantis blueprints to the Incursions event. How freaking desperate have y'all got to be to force people to participate in this event?
Are you guys ever planning on fixing the UI on iPhone 14s? It's been crazy long since they came out and the display is still jacked
Weird how a hardware manufacturer just offloads that onto every app dev instead.
"Oh yeah there's a hole in the screen now. Hope you weren't using that space for anything the last 15 years." š¤·
Why not let scouts drop messages again?
Could be the straw that breaks the camels back. The only winning move is not to play.
Still havenāt heard anything and Iām still missing 82 Moreau shards⦠the issue was I got a lucky 41 shard pull and instead it removed them.
So, Lessau rather than Moreau. š
Daily com shout out is usually Lagggggggg
I am sure everyone is so far past angry. With your lack information to your game, events which are just boring. Grind ever increasing and you want money for this utter rubbish. Logical mind you create more problems than you actually fix . Any company did this to there customers ? Whens the end date you have decided?
Us players have managed to create close knit communities ingame, but there is so much we can do when the game pushes players away. Sure, that may happen in all games, but never have i seen a game with so many bugs, that its official people give the players "workarounds" instead of permanent solutions, that demands so much money to play without enough game improvement to justify it.
that alt is ops 29 by now... no unlock, but, funny enough: the franklin mission is stuck at level 19... nothing to bother about until you reach 35, but anyways. I asked the scopely support about the unlock and they just told me to 'keep out an eye for future intormation'... um...
This needs to be fixed. Our server has some systems that spawn 5 reds at a time when they used to spawn 30. Another year and there wonāt be any reds left. All our mantis systems no longer spawn apex reds. How about we concentrate on fixing some of these game breaking bugs for a month or two and run old events, instead of pushing out new broken content ???
Actually funny you have this in reverse, do you think any players care about your dollars. Why i have to do 101 making money. You play to there greed than your own ... the players more generous more money you make. Less generous who gives a duck your latest scam
...
I spend 1 $ get $100 dollars in value or scopely i spend $ 160 and get $1 in value
Ya dont think galia didnt cost ya trillions your deluded for that utter stupid . You changed something without notice and for no reason . Besides your utter joke testing and quality control!!
Fantasy is game was bug free .
Payed content that is grind with numerous bugs. Would you pay for something that works sometimes??
You could address this problems within the game with INFORMATION.
Man this game is seriously going downhill. Virtually all aspects of the dailies are broken. Level 43 systems with nary a 43 or 44 hostile in them. Action 38 system broken for days with a dead apex in it. No buffs in the level 37 action system. Inbox broken for days. Not a lucky chest pull for months. Amalgam pulls netting 375 every time (Iām at 27 pulls with 375 every time)
Could we have a schedule for when the stuck hostile scripts are ran as starting armadas that then players cannot join due to horrendous lag is starting to be unfunny.
Or even a 15min warning in game before it is ran would help
guess what... suddenly it now popped up today
Busting a gut to get to level 36, (Iām a low paying player Ā£20 per month max) for 9 months to get those improved epic packs. First pack: 3 Dvor parts. You certainly know how to ruin an experience Scopely.
@ I love DS9 but this arc is trash. Badly explained events, canceled events left and right. Scopley greed on paywalling everything and/or leaving out sub 35 on most everything.
lower bp cost of 50 epic ships pls
Itās just you. Not having a good RNG day I guess! Just donāt open any Ultra recruit chests š¬š¤£
stella armadas broken now? we just ran two rare that would not complete in lindstrom. wasted directives š¦
Did any of you use Kira on the bridge? If so, don't use her. She breaks eclipse armadas.
Also, message cs to get your directives back, even if it may take a while
ah yes, one of the team had Sisko, kira
so great Scopely releases an officer, officer is broken and we've had 0 acknowledgement of the issue or a potential fix for weeks now
So many things are wrong
unless I've missed an official announcement
Are Augment Data nodes missing their "rings" for anyone else? In Ilmatar they got no rings where you can click on to mine, you have to guess where those are and click there
Adjust the graphics settings (if on pc) to HD.
MD and SD makes those lines disappear which works on standard nodes, but not on data nodes
Better to reply in a different channel due to slowmode š
Thanks, that was it, didn't expect those to disappear changing my settings. and yeah was the wrong channel for this, sry mods haha
š
oh that's the fix? have had this issue on pc for months without looking into it
Increase your graphics settings in game to HD
Never had such a run of bad luck on scouts before.. But it's good to know it's just me then..
Ultra's will stay firmly hoarded š
yes, I realise that with the post I replied to š will try it out tonight
Sorry I read it as what is the fix š±š±š±ššš
This level of rng is bs. Same crews/ships/exoās. Identical runs. In fact I was stronger with a Bajoran boom on the loss. One shot to complete and gone. On what should have been a Gimmie. This type of crap not only closes my wallet, it gets another pebble in the āscrew thisā pile š
Anyone having problem clearing battle reports
Known bug, it was reported. No workaround for now, only patience till they fix it
4 days since I can do any reseach and they are starting an incursion prep event. Guess I have no chance of finishing that
You can try :
-
to access the research tree via the daily goal research (if not collected yet)
-
to access the station tree via the dock F
-
to access outlaw tree via the Stella M button
-
to clear all your running research (can deblock the pb for some)
the best solution is not to update the game if not absolutely necessary š
@potent silo thanks for the info
Desealing rods: is it "working as intended" if the rod disappears from your inventory without using it after you create it with broken desealing rods?
The rod don't go in inventory. When did you convert the broken in a whole rod?
The last fix was not a download. Research totally broken.
Daily goal to access research doesnt work.
Dock F and Stella works but I will say this: Having access to two of the eight trees via work around is not acceptable. Nor does anything to catch up or make up for the currently wildly unfair slb and days of missed research and event rewards.
Accepted the last research, cleared local and it seems to be working.
Its funny that we all have to chase this information instead of it being provided by the now defunct in game support. Three or so days of mild frustration caused by scopleys inability to provide reliable service and support for their product.
slow clap
I will however give a shoutout to MinnaMurray and other discord frontline peoples. There certainly must be an influx of players with our upset attitudes now that other forms of support are no longer... supported.
Thank you for doing what you do, otherwise we'd probably all quit. Lol.
Had the same results. Its better then nothing but still not what it should be. Definitely should be some compensation for all this
I canāt understand why at ops 39 I canāt see g5 ships as a possibility to build, yet I CAN see the refit. If the ship is so secret that you wonāt even show it to me, why are you showing me the cloak?
Ā£175... for this?
THANKS for 114 ascension event ! š
All these red notifications are entirely unnecessary and extremely unwelcomed/unhelpful.
When will we get the ability to mark battle reports as read back?
What's the logical thing to do when a bug causes the game to lock up when accessing research? Fix the bug you say? Nah, do what Scopley does, launch an event where doing research is a key scoring mechanism š¤¦āāļø
At least you have that offer. That is good compered to what I have.
October Arc events = š©
Iāll be honest, itās starting to feel a bit overwhelming playing this game if you are personality type of wanting to do everything u need to do daily⦠if youāre going to flood continuous new ways to play, you need to come up with daily events that allow us to get all the parts, all the currency and all the rep we need to play on a daily basis and move forward. Adding new mechanics for more money is fine, but take care of the players that try to get all the grinding in. 3 hrs a day just to grind to get minimum payoutsā¦. Maybe we add more resources to the dailies to alleviate some of that time on. Iām skipping incursions to get a break and now find if I want a Mantis, got to do that now. Just too much time so increasing rewards would help.
Just the almost daily plea to PLEASE MERGE SERVER 65 AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. Many of us are desperate for it. It will retain many of the spenders. S65 for merge!!!
Just did a 3 chest pull for bajoran favor got 5 whole points for an hour of grinding. Way to go Scopely. Got any programmers that GRADUATED from elementary school?
My point exactly
That doesn't sound right, favors are the trinkets you see on the bottom, they act like research primes.
And grinding an hour would get you antimatter, which is exchanged for badges. Badges can be exchanged for credits or rep.
System lag took 20 mins for my favor purchase to show but it finally did

Most of my evening doing research spent looking at this during a research event. Poor stuff.
Can you try the work around going through the Stella or others methods pinned in #š¾-bug-reporting
"š¹ My research tree is blank!
Most players have success reenabling research by speeding up and clearing all the research queues.
If that doesn't work, you may also access some trees by:
Clicking on the M inside the Ships button under Stella to reach Outlaw
Clicking on Drydocks F to reach Station
G3 or lower players can click Ships and navigate to a ship that requires still locked research(G4 Ship Research) to reach Combat"
there more methods pinned in #š¾-bug-reporting
ok this have trigged the bug and is the bug away š¤£
well better than nothing for event scoring
Rubbish though in general but thanks going through the Stella worked for me š
Is there any plans to release a Mac version?
If you dont turn around the grind to players. This is no longer fun, so completely boring grinds which never change ir have more introduced by your utter incompetence in testing or q and a . Anything wants money for poor quality content and information is dreaming customers are fed up with it.
Another suggestion you dont have employees playing at various levels. 0 to 20 21 to 40 41 to 50 51 to 60 ect how have you any idea what the game is doing to the various levels. You actually show to all various problems. And actively communicating you might turn around the sinking titanic stfc has become.
Your costs are fixed, this doesnt mean bang for $ you cant increase value to players. 101 do you really we care your bottum line. We care money to value. The fact you have apparently taken approach short term gain over long term gain is so utterly stupid beyond belief. Short term is $ 100 long term is a million dollars
This is comical. Scopely decisions over the past 2 months are making the spenders leave, close second is dealing with the constant disagreements and filibustering from your alliance.
Fsjaven I am glad you all have chosen a consistent "company" line.
Insult away...it is what many of you do best.
Scopely ..65 needs new overlords.
I no longer play, not an insult at you or your alliance if you take it that way then that is on you. Iām just stating my personal experience with this game, personal sentimental, and sentiment thatās not just from āmy companyā. I pity the server that does merge.
So do we, which is why we are hoping for giant whales...shake up some of the harassment and dictatorship from the current whale alliances.
Those who claim fillabustering and other things but never bothered to bring a single proposal to community council. No chance to fillabuster.
Hey everyone, [112] WarpSparrow checking in to say that I'm out and I want to make it publicly known that the reason that I'm out is because server 112, which has existed for a little over 5 months now, just had its level 39 cap removed. My understanding is that usually the cap stays in place for about a year, give or take a couple months.
112 is a high spend server - I can say that with confidence as one of the higher spenders playing on 112 - but even so, I expected the level of server acceleration resulting from our high spend to mean the cap went away in February, maybe January at the most aggressive. Not before we even hit the 6 month mark.
It's a decision I've been thinking about a lot these past two weeks even as I continued swiping the credit card to pay the price tag associated with any progression above ops 30 that isn't at a pace best described as glacial. And I'd rather not get into a spending war with the people who have spent more than I want to on this game, nor do I take any kind of joy or pleasure from using the amount I have spent to farm blue hostile triangles with no real way to compete against me because they simply didn't spend enough to play.
So I'm out. And it's my hope that if I happen to check back in on the state of the game in a few months time, that enough other spend accounts have followed me for scopely to actually do something about the level 31~40 price tag. I have it on good authority that it's happened before, that's why 1~25 is much faster these days.
š¤¦š»āāļø
Server 74 has 1 player at 50 and they removed the level 50 cap too now
Sometimes, NRG is evil. Been killing every ship in Lepedes, trying to get 37s to spawn. Just over 2 hours, and only 24 popped. š Guess I should have killed a Klingon and a Fed instead.
I though mine for 200 was bad. Guess they're really trying to squeeze you dry.

How many years to get 1 skin/projectile in amagam refinery?
I did calculation now... 400 days for 1 uncommon projectile... Plasma blast. Just as example.
It just makes sense. Those type of players may get bored sitting at 50 as there is kinda nothing for them to do. Might as well let em go for 60. They were smashing everybody anyway
Please, give me some way of turning off these annoying red things.
The faction tab keeps lighting up like Blackpool tower. GO AWAY little red dots.
They really really annoy me.
Just give the icon a red border to show it has new content.
There are so many they lose any importance, and just become an annoyance.
How do you get support to answer the question you posed not the one they have an answer for which does not answer the question posed?
I dunno, how do you get someone to ask the question they want the answer to so you can know if you have the answer š
(Couldnāt resist, sorry. Genuinely, if youāve got a question maybe someone here or in #š¤-help-each-other can help)
You need set the toaster to level 7 or above to achieve the desired results when toasting crumpets.
Oh, sorry, was that not the answer to your question? I am in support mode.
I think they post the answers correctly, just not to the people who asked.
Q: how do I set my toaster correctly to toast crumpets? A: the bonnet release lever is on the left.
Next question.
Q; why wonāt my shower get hot? A: use setting no7 on your toaster for the best toasting of crumpets.
This was 4 armadas in 4 days lol
I agree bat, red dots should go away, now they are just annoying
Love how they lied about a special event this Saturday for getting the mantis and the strike team officers
Think that was in reference to the actual incursion when it happens
It never stated it was during the prep or during the actual incursion.
LMAO
OFFS! AGAIN!?!?!?!?!
It said Saturday
Rofl that rubbish again?
#ā-official-announcements message
It says this month.
Strike team as snw officers should already be in the mantis refinery though , which by the way scopley sucks that they are not there.
It wasnāt there that I read it yesterday it was in the ingame news which I would post if I could find the screenshot of and discord didnāt limit me. I thought discord was bad in the late 80ās to early 90ās but I find in some ways itās worse no at least then it didnāt limit and was completely free
Still need to donate a kidney if you want strike team crews
Scopely is literally a bunch of tyrants. Can they do anything right besides extorting players?
If youāre going to make a strong statement like that, you really need to make sure you read the announcement correctly first. Which you clearly didnāt.
$copley is as good with clear, nonmisleading event promotion as it is with fixing bugs or giving us updates that don't break the game.
they will roll event store with incursion. That event store will have strike team and Mantis in it. We will have to see how they roll it: 1. How many mantis bp is limit in event store (50 would be fair in my opinion). 2. How many event store loot someone can get in incursion. Hope it will be more then Borg store as it was just fail. 3. How new events will look like. (I hope it will be better then Champion which is basically just get some sort of bot, use it and win)
Considering incursions is a 1 day event, I donāt think weāll get anything from that store for a few months
Is anyone from Server 152 Stovokor on here......
If they do, they will play dangerous game. It is what it is
To be honest. I hoped mantis will come in cosmic cleanup. Idea to put strike team in Incursions is good. Implementation, we have to see in a week.
it will be a event store where you need to be top on the slb thats all levels to get the currency to use the event store. and that currency will be available in a new pack š¤£
The uncommon armada directives should be able to collect every 24h
Level 39 Mantis (Actian) system is broken. Never spawns an Apex. Scopley. The list of what DOES work continues to shrink. Sad commentary
Cash free.....
the rewards scopely don't match what scopely want us to spend
Great job destroying pvp aspect of the game with the new officersš
The point of the event store is to increase participation in incursions. The current rewards aren't generating the activity they want if they make the events stingy with currency then people will bubble and ignore just like they do now.
Most acitan systems are broken. It's either spend an hour killing 36's or fight over the apex in 35.
@Scopely: Game is unplayable. It isnāt possible to raid because of the lag and constantly crashing of the game. How exactly should we play upcoming incursion? Hit a base or a ship and the battle duration is between 30 sec and 5 min. If your base is hit and game start to lag we canāt repair or shield up. Everyone is asking for weeks now to fix this problem but the only thing scopely is interested in is how many pack they have sold. Think for a change, you selling us useless packs (useless because we canāt use it in a totally broken game). Fix this and stop thinking only at the dollar signs
I suspect the majority of event store credits will be for the top 2 or 3 of the leaderboards, meaning the vast majority of players will only ever get a small amount of credits per incursion. Hopefully Iāll be proved wrong.
I canāt get to research menu. What to do??!!!!???
Check pinned messages in #š¾-bug-reporting
Remove player names please otherwise I have to remove this. Valid feedback though so would rather I donāt do it
Reposting the text š
Recall miner when u are going to sleep. After incursion shield fix there is situation again where when your miner get hit, your shield might drop. I reported this to DJz. He said we need more data and I just stop leaving miner out š
Just one more way for scopely to drain you from your resources so you might get more in their store
I know itās early but happy Halloween š
i had 3 shields malfunction and it was every time on 12 h shield, i m using no more 12 h shields for more then a year and saw not one shield malfunction since then
Having that dry dock you want us to purchase front and center on our home screen... IS A SLAP IN THE FACE TO F2P PLAYERS.
I can research now. Wish you were checking that.
All those little red boxes with numbers in them is insane... ARE YOU TRYING TO DRIVE US CRAZY. @velvet sonnet I quit using 12hr years ago. One of those never gonna fix issues. "We have no record of you deploying a 12hr shield"
12h shield bug was fixed a while ago. This shield bug is newer. Happens when server desyncās from client
šš¤£š not that problem but a new one. Still the same problem... 12hr shields are unreliable... everyone knows it. Where you guys trained at Microsoft š¤£šš¤£ 21 year IT professional here.
I see red boxes... EVERYWHERE. š
Yes. As you remember they had to scrap incursion 1st time they run it because of infinite raiding. They fix incursion shield and after that bug was back. We tell our members to recall miners when offline
Why not make Borg as they should be, once you enter system they keep attacking you to try to assimilate you, just an idea š
Ah, a mircosoftesque "work around" gotcha. š
RESEARCH QUEUE.... what are you actually doing to fix a problem that has been going on for days?
I worked so hard to get enough desealing rods to convert for treasury unlock! I just got enough and they remove the option to convert!!? I am so angry right now!
You have 3 days to get a desealing rod to claim the vault contents, from the time you unlock it. Sounds like just bad timing.
Wait christmas
No mate it's easier just to write a description about them. That's all...just like the mean nasty Doomsday worms and Swarm. Such lethal and fearsome hostiles. šš
Like the Vidar was supposed to be this devastating ship, what a surprise it's a bit more powerful than a miner and no match for a decent G3+ combat ship. š¤·āāļøš
This arc and the new ridiculous money grab for the epic officer was absolute trash after completing all events and buying the BP none of the new officers have been unlocked and given the usual approach tjeull probably not be collectable anytime soon.
I can't imagine the event sore in the incursions being any use to unlock them š
So whatever happened to that Garak avatar replacement event for bait & switching it earlier?
Anyone else seeing this when trying to make a "Jump" with the Discovery? When clicking set course everything works as expected. Confirmed that I see this error on both mobile and PC versions of the game.
Check pinned messages in #š¾-bug-reporting
@fallen epoch thank you
@tawny nimbus @fallen epoch Why is the word "Hello" a forbidden word in game chat as that is just stupid?
You just tagged a random player. I didnāt realise Hello was a blocked word. Maybe itās blocked due to a meaning in another language
@tacit obsidian Can we please modify the Threat from Beyond event to get triple scoring with the Franklin-A?
I only require 17 swarm hits to finish my swarm dailies. So that means I can complete Sunday and Monday's dailies during the event and still be short on completing both events. It's a bit ridiculous
So, I just got enough Bajoran rep to go up a rep level, and this is what I see. Is this intentional for Ops 35-39 players, or is this a bug? If the former, colour me very unimpressed.
Bruh! You got scopelyed!
Clear you loc, should solve it. Just a bug
The daily station event needs to be updated as ops level goes up.
It does have better rewards at higher ops. It's just that there's a huge segment, 28-49, where there are tons of players and the rewards are the same.
Thank you Scopely. So much better now
Sorry about me messaging a random player with the name Admin but shouldn't that be for moderators & actual discord admins here & secondly the word Hello is a common word in the English language & should never be banned regardless if it means something different in a obscure language.
@tacit obsidian can we please get the old server off the power rate list once incursion ends please hard to know where some one stands on your server and hard to find people for kos or recruiting
@tacit obsidian Is server incursions for euro servers tonight after daily quest reset ? Tnx
Incursions arenāt after the prep events. It should be towards the end of the week.
It should be. But we don't know for sure. It could happen tomorrow for all anyone knows because Scopely missed public communications 101
Itās up to you to see who you tag. You can tell the difference between a role and a person in discords tags drop down. As for why Hello is censored, Iām going to test this in game.
You can test also ANO ... this means in czech: YES š š š ... bl00dddy heII
Would be also nice to have Scopely CONTRACT some OTHER RELIABLE company to do UNIVERSAL TRANSLATOR in game, that would be much Star-Trek-ish
Please change that Starbase can only be touched by commodores and Admirasl!!
Yeah, I also want an "Uhuralator". Maybe she would be able to do different dialects, too? š¤ E.g.: Glaswegian to south-east-Bavarian or west-Pommeranian to Brummy, etc.
Overall I'd give this month a C-
I like the Bajoran faction and mechanics, still early days but I think it's better than the Rogue faction which it seems closest to.
I really didn't like the events this month though, at all. Cardassian Counterattack should never be run again without drastic changes to either the scoring, rewards, or timeframe of event. Assuming UC 6 person armadas all being shared around equally it would take 4800 UC directives per person to finish all six events, over the same period of time people could only gain 820 directives for free via daily goals and weekly alliance store. That is horribly imbalanced for an event not marked as Heroic.
The Espionage micro-event store was near pointless imo. If you're going to run event stores with currency that carries over between months that has to be communicated better, and the limits on ship skins and projectile shards greatly increased. I spent all of my currency at the end of last month on random UCs, if things were communicated better I'd instead have spent them on projectile shards, and also bought more of those shards this month, as it was I spent nothing on the assumption there'll be more/better stores in the remaining parts of this arc. You've just got to get better at communication in general though, the mid-arc patch with no announcement until hours after the maintenance had ended was... well...
Finally the new officer decisions were bad. There should have been auctions with paired SMSs for Dukat, or some alternative path that allowed F2P/BP only players a reasonable chance at an unlock. I wouldn't call a 0.5% chance on a maximum of (8?) chests reasonable. Couldn't get either rare without paying extra also.
Not necessarily a part of this arc but I like that a F2P Mantis path has been announced and will await specifics. Flip side of that I've got no idea why you changed alliance starbases, was it really needed? As a Commodore I don't even like Premiers being able to promote/demote people...
I do not like that I now have to manually activate Mantis exocomps.
If that is going to be the way the mechanic works going forward, then at least make the exocomps last longer (30m minimum), please.
has something changed with the Android version lately? I still get notifications, but they don't make any sound. I've restarted my phone twice, the phone is not muted, and other apps' notifications make noise
The ringtone of my notifications changed at some point in the last day.
What happens to an alliance if the only remaining member was invited from a different server?
Should we try moving the alliance to the same server?
special adjustment for incursion so you get more likely raided
This month, server 156 saw a massive increase in lag time. Probably 5x more than last month.
So, s65 got the server merge msg for Oct 25, but no word on who we're merging with, apparently dated 7 days ago
Wow scopley is so lazy now they can't even be bothered to take support tickets now.... Starbase won't relocate, starbase won't upgrade, cargo hold won't fill, and HUD display is still not showing proper hostile attack!!!!
I can tell you it isn't 66, no messages for us.
don't bet on that, maybe only 1 server notified
I try to do all events and Iām about over these armadas. Nice how you take something we like and make us hate it.
Letās see this new incursions store could be magic and we can all go off to Narnia š§š»āāļø
It is set up to make them lots of money so get ready for tons of post from the whiners.
Tickets are no longer processed, is already the 4th time that I write support. 3 times via chat and now 1 time by mail.
Thanks STFC ! š¤©
How long did you wait between each ticket
wait 3 days per Ticket, Tickets automatillity closed.
What was the issue about?
Ticket information:
I have recently purchased the Bonus Oct. Elite Day Rewards package.
Here were 6900 Multiphase Tokens received, unfortunately I did not get them. Can you still post them please.
Really would appreciate some better communication! Still no eta on incursion and now we have less than 24 hour notice of upcoming server merge!
@tacit obsidian keep reminding him the check list ticks ....incursions is when, servers bye and getting some form event so can get mantis bps subspace relays.
Ya know why should any server be at a disadvantage to scopelys poor planning. !!
Ah ok. Have to wait for CS to respond
How come some folks (seemingly a lot) got a free october rewards gift and everyone else out in the cold?
Seen a few people say itās come from doing a survey a while ago
Though I am shocked at the notice timing...or lack of ... Stoked that 65 is up for a merge. Thanks for listening...if you did.
really goes against previous statements made by the community management / mod team that 7 days notice would be provided for server merges
Hey @tacit obsidian , when can I finally play the game on Mac?
Mach dir nichts draus. Du bist und bleibst die Zipfelmütze auf dem schlechten Server š¤£š
Wie was? š kennen wir uns?
We got an IGN announcement about a week ago that had August dates and was promptly pulled to be corrected but never put back up. They probably consider that fair notice, but I wish they would hold it for a week instead of springing it on us like this.
@tacit obsidian - I know you have been asked a million times - when is incursions actually occurring? Your employer really abuses you by asking you to manage the community and not give you the tools or data needed to succeed in that role. I feel bad for you, its a rough job. I know you aren't ignoring us and are simply stuck with no new info to give regarding this arc, incursions, or the new bug central the game is becoming. Again, thanks for what you do with what little support you are given. As an aside, a 24/7 game needs three community managers so that one of you is available at all times. Pipe dream, I know. Anyway - hopefully Scopely delivers some updates to you that you can share with the player base at some point.
@pulsar leaf @tacit obsidian So that change to what ranks can upgrade Star Base components has been reverted and Operatives can once again build modules....
An operative was just able to complete a starbase buildingā¦. Back to Agent with everyone.
@tacit obsidian What is the schedule for Incursions? The prep event was this past weekend and we still don't know when the actual incursion event is going to be.
Weāll have all the details on what servers will be sitting this round of Incursions out later this week. When it comes to the bye week chest, Iām happy to bring up these concerns and I appreciate you letting me know.
Should have this info in just a day or so. As soon as I do I'll be sure to let everyone know!
Just for the record, it's absurd that the pre incursion events run before the schedule for incursion gets decided/put out
I hope that means it's not this weekend... It feels pretty crappy to have prep and then given the history of "a day or so" pretty much no notice for when it starts to actually prepare.
Eco, what about the merge notices and details? Per our announcement it is happening in about 7 hours and that is all that we know.
@tacit obsidian Yes, please give us info on this supposed server merge that was sprung on S65 with less than 24 hours notice.
And donāt say there was bc the first notice had the wrong dates and then was taken down
Tribbles are the planets in the system
Oh seriously? Ffs
Will hijacked ships ever be given cloaking abilities? I built them, canāt recycle them ⦠it would sure be good to be able to cloak them.
Itās a really lame arc when I didnāt unlock a single officer
why can operative+ still use starbase speedups? also the starbase build completion messages aren't appearing in chat now, why is scopely grieving it's playerbase with this mechanic?
how di complete the mission, "The Great Tribble Hunt" i need to mine 1000 tribbles. Ive been to Hurgh'maQ and Ra'Taj none of the ships there seem to have any.
It's on the planets. You have to mine the planets
Anyone see the incursion schedule?
Tribbles are the planets there
Siiiiiiiiigh......
You consistently impress me with your incompetence, scopely. Learn to proof read your announcements, please...
@tacit obsidian scopley needs to do better with this incursion schedule. We all figure itās between arcs but running prep event and then having no idea when itās going to happen is stupid. We already know who we will face because of the Xslb during prep so why not tell us what days the actual event will run. Imagine going on a 7 day cruise and putting up a 7 day bubble then 4 days matter you finally get service in a port and you check in just to find out oh sorry incursion dropped and your trillions in rss are gone cause your shield wasnāt valid cause scopley just dropped incursion with no notice. They can and should tell us the schedule when they announce the prep event. And we wonder why ppl rage quit
relocate in a level 1 system easy and safe. enjoy your cruise, no network no armada no grind still enjoy your resources when back and refreshed
So not the point. People like their tc locations etc. the cruise is just an example. They already know when they will run it. They know who will play who. If they donāt then they are very poorly run and they should have a 30/60/90 day calendar for events done. There is no reason to not release the incursion schedule when they release the prep schedule. Folks are already upset with the last few arcs this withholding of pretty pertinent game scheduling doesnāt help.
Any news about this bug? Can it happen with every shield? Or is it even fixed?
Current recommendation is to send some helps or collect a 10min chest or even better restart your game to make sure the game is synced
But to collect a 10min chest, or to restart the game, i have to be online.
If i'm online i need no shield. A schield i take, when i go off.
Did i missed something?
@fallen epoch any news on the inbox issue. Mine hasnāt been able to clear for days
Or do you mean, after i set the shield, we should do any action, so its synced. Then we can go offline?
Yes that š put your shield, open any chest to be sure it's applied and you can go off
yep
not yet
More workarounds than properly working functions in this game 
Yeah it is getting to be like that now!
too much grinding and not worth repair cost for 4ships killing 48s and loot is like a drop
chest drops are still giving 3 instead of 4*
@tacit obsidian Just an FYI - I think SONO is a little paranoid because his ships keep getting attacked when returning to base, as he is at war with a few alliances on the server. The reality is this player has annoyed quite a few plyers on the server (no issue here he can play the game as suits his character). Players from alliances he is at war with and others he thinks are on his side keep giving up his location, and in fact every time he moves there are well organised scouts that scan all systems, find his location and post it in private chats. So, it's a simple case of he has made so many enemies on the server that he is hunted, and this is a PvP game if I am no mistaken. Him implying that one of Scopley's staff would assist a player (and risk their job) is preposterous and like I said above simple paranoia. I must say this post made me laugh though, made my day.
If Scopely can't agree on what roles should be allowed to mess up the star base, please allow us to customise what rank has access to what permissions.
100% agree to this!
Please please please, allow the Admiral to have tickboxes for everything here to make it fully customizeable!
Best Mantis crew?
Did ingame support stop? Got a ticket which didnt get any scopely relply for a weekā¦
It may happens that they just lost it, try updating it or submit a new one
Updated it regullary. Cant start a new one if a ticket is still open and cant close it myself
This was bought up yesterday. There should be a fix for this releasing in the next 24h
Research is still broken. Iām on iOS.
Check store, should be an update for you today to fix that
I just installed an update and it is still broken
Interesting. Can you confirm which version that is?
@signal yoke just take a screenshot of your App Store
Under version history
Thatās the latest
You are the one using 2 years ago a spy account in my ally to find us and our armadas
FYI: scopley made arms harder. I would beat the uc with 2 ships allive at end with no boost. And for rare i would win with 2 boost. , 3 exo, which I also lost and had 3 ships boosted. This is with rev crew which i have won multiple times with no issues. Second time scopley quietly adjusted arms making them harder with no communication! Anything to say about this ? @tacit obsidian
RNG + not konwing what is in your lower dcks (ie both that ds9 setup and the 5 setup (assuming 5 6 khan) need max health below deck...
can we have a āplunder-like exo compā for the borg battleships if you canāt put in higher level borg systems? that way iād only have to farm nano probes once every few days instead of daily. say you get one of the exo comps every 25 probes killed and it increases loot 5x for an hour. The overall grind of the game has increased exponentially and is ruining my game life ratio and iām not enjoying the game as much and am considering taking an exit from the game to restore work life balance.
I believe in specific mathematical words it was called critical damage variance, but for simplicity RNG works too
I don't think folks ever bother to compare winning battle logs and look closely at how much the dmg taken can vary. Another thing to note is if the armada decides to pick on your best ship (ie one doing most the damage) and takes it out first well your chances of winning go down quite quickly.
Yes definitely and this is what Order2Chaos bought up on this discord about a week ago. It really hasnāt been noticeable till the solo armadas
maybe a stupid question... but will there be an incursion? I mean we had incursion preparation events, but the incursion itself seems to be missing.
Announcement will be out in the next few days š
was just afraid I missed something and might end up in territory with my pants, aehm shields, down
So what did scopely change to the solo madas??? Beat a lvl 43 unc solo mada yesterday without any problems. Today I use the same crews and same ships and didnt even get the hull halfway drained. What gives? Scopely make a change to these things overnight and then not tell us??? @fallen epoch
Read up
I have yet to lose one of these madas though. And its not like I have barely beaten the past ones.
So Actian improvements - my suggestions: triple loot on the regular hostiles and give ALL of them buffs. Not just a few. This reduces time and prevents people from just hunting buffs with Kuron and trolling other players.
Check all the battlelogs. Itās likely that the ship that does the most in your armadas got targeted the most and it died early. Thatās why you lost.
Itās literally about RNG. It always has been with armadas itās just never been noticed until now with the Solo armadas
CoW should get a little overhaul, rewards should scale by ops
In systems with solo armada targets there are very few hostiles . 2-3 ships hunting hostiles can easily empty the system, and then it's 20-30sec snail race to wherever new one popped up. This adds additional (unnecessary) frustration to already time consuming grind. Please increase this number. Also solo armada targets can be physically spread more around system map. Even with this low number of hostiles screen is cluttered.
I saw the permissions for operatives to edit and build on the starbase has been removed again - but you left the premieres ability on. Since you can change things that quickly can you also please remove the ability from premieres so only commodores and admirals can make changes to the starbase
Premiers is intended. Check #ā-official-announcements I believe itās in there
Is this a new refit, or the same old vanilla refit?
Its the original meridian refit
Iām aware itās intended. But itās a change nobody wanted and has been asked to be removed. So Iām bringing it back up again
Hey Scopeley, why dont Gem Hādar reds drop loot chests when they say they are supposed to chance drop a mega chest?
Not familiar with Rev crew so I'd be curious to know who you have on each ship, also how long your battles are running.
How about a chat system that actually blocks people???
Can we please have release notes for app Update M47.2.1 & M47.2.2? M47.2.2 was released today in AppStore.
Yes š
Also, M47.2.2 fixed the research screen bug. Btw
I still have the block option in the pc version. I haven't checked mobile yet.
Yes he is blocked but can still see him maybe an issue from scopley end
Scopely vs. Community (sorry for German)
cosmetics ^^
So we have some new members in our alliance but their territory donations are still going to their old alliance. What in the What is this? And why is Customer service being so unhelpful?
Post some SS?
@tacit obsidian On server 65 we merged with S39. In the bulletin it said we would have merger rewards. We haven received anything. Any idea when?
Does anyone know / have confirmation if territory buffs are rotating in november like they did last year? @tacit obsidian @vale wasp ?
That merge was so shotgun I bet they skipped the events for rewards.
So scopley being the normal scopley... Got it
I was going to say that. Lol
Haven't done this in a while, so here's my wish list...
Fix stuck hostile bug.
Add functionality to allow access to building menus directly while building is being upgraded rather than force workarounds, which some don't really have.
Add a "preference" functionality to refinery and chests; add "refine all" and "claim all" respectively.
Have 10min/4hr gift chests scale with ops.
Add "double click" functionality to docks to instantly locate ship.
Fix SNW La'an cargo display bug.
Add ability to sort or hide items in faction stores.
Add additional alliance diplomacy marking (I.E. Truce, Unfriendly, hostile, Kill on Sight) options.
Add ability to sort inventory or remove outdated currency/resources. Alternatively, let players customize inventory more.
Display all relavent currencies/resources in stores/refineries/chest menus.
Add more rankings for other player statistics (ie resources mined, k/D ratio, hostiles destroyed, etc).
Personally, I'd love to have more grid-style menus (like refits) on android mobile and less scrolling style menus.
Move "home" button by the interior/exterior and system/galaxy buttons.
Give exocomps its own line when in system view and display timer for when next exo expires.
Add more sortable categories for the favorites menu
The vidar grind is too cumbersome, especially with new grinding requirements with the mantis and bajoran faction, maybe introduce a new bajoran favor or a research option in the starbase tree to boost nanoprobes drops? Youād be merging old with new and would make everyone happy.
We get kicked out of our territories and loose the iso we spent on getting them, we loose the iso we spent on starting services. We didn't know about the merger until day or 2 before, we could have not started services had we known. š”
@tacit obsidian still no gifts or events for the s65/s39 merger!
Can we consider reducing the cooldown on the amalgam refinery? It's been what, 10 months since its release? My tracker total is 5856. I bought the amalgam cloak but to get anything else it's going to be at least another 12 months
at the moment I'd be happy to have these constant lag spikes removed. they kill armadas and make actian venom hunt a pain with exos running out all the time without being used due to lag
And it takes 45 seconds to go from apex across the screen to another... That's assuming you are in a system where it works
@halcyon kayak I just love it when I klick 6 or more times on the apex without combat commencing, just to see lag resolve and some other player killing it.
I would really like to see the exo icon on the Actian hostiles at all zooms. not just when zoomed in. I can't stand zooming in and out constantly.
@tacit obsidian when will all the Actian issues be addressed?
Will we ever learn when the incursions are coming?
Today dates get announced
Phew
Hopefully not at 5 mins to reset, telling us they're happening today ^^
Itāll be 5 minutes after reset. Just because.
Donāt they just copy and paste a message from last month with last months date still on it š
Last month? Longer ago then that sometimesā¦.
The way announcements having been happening, I'll believe it when I read it!
@tacit obsidian some feedback would be good. On our server (176) we now have every Actian system up to and including 39 broken.
Mantis grind is horrible⦠can anyone imagine how bad it will be when the ship is available F2P? All actian hostile loot drops need to be increased 5x.
True
LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA...AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAG
Game load is ā¦.. sssssssssloooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwzzzzzzzzZzzzzzzZzzzzZzzzzz
why is reset always a š©fest cant access anything
For the love of god!!! Fix the damn reset laaaaaaaaaaaaaaag
what are the borg retrieving ... events?
The event was assimilated
Wondering when Scopely will do something, anything, about the long time and frequently recurring āretrievingā issue.
It seems they just donāt care
Uuuummmmmm scopley you okay? Events not loading and GC is empty
cant acces faction ether
Laaaaaaaagggggggg
This, but older tech
@tacit obsidian yāall broke the game again
Server 8 unplayable
Not another penny $copely ... not. another. penny.
Usual outstanding quality control from scopley, constantly freezing and no events available ššššš
Just NOT worth playng any longer!!!
Yeh. Can yāall just sell this game to someone else who might improve quality of play? Instead of us hoping and praying youāll actually fix it.
Scrotely strikes again
Nice fail, everyone counts as ops 1. Welcome back to the roots. š©
134 is broken
Network_error_503!!!
Give up on the feedback. It just goes into a black hole. Lol
If normal daily resets completely wreck the game on a regular basis, maybe, just MAYBE, work on fixing what exists before adding anything else! The last thing I bought was the Mantis, and those systems haven't worked for like 6+ weeks. Do you really expect people to buy new stuff when what exists, even at the basic level, doesn't even work anymore? This is insane at this point.
Amazon down?
Trying to look at today's events and the game keeps telling me my internet connection is bad... š
STFC is like buying a Porsche just to find it has a Yugo engine in it.
Same here, the game tells me either that I have no network or that something went wrong and goes on a reboot constant loop⦠great game update again
Is there ANYTHING more disingenuous than blaming our internet connections for their broken game?
I think the yugo would work better
shields please!
Nixkƶnnerā¦ā¦
Originale
STOP. FREAKING. BUYING. SCOPLEY. PRODUCTS.
Fix or refund the mantis and the whole dam game I can't even get into the game so so disappointed
@tacit obsidian So, that QA team... We need em bad
Can't stay connected for more than 10s, booted with 2 error messages. So much for dailies...
yups
The very basics of the game are unplayable following an event start, yet again. Scopely need to actually show some love to players or they will lose more and more
Network_error_503 every 10s.....c'mon!!!!
This is crap multiple armada events with no sourcing for epic and rare dirs. You nerf the only ways to source them that were meager. I cannot believe this is resulting in higher revenue but less I know Iām refusing to spend until this crap is corrected. Constant crashes now too! @tacit obsidian
They done did it now....finally broke the game š¤¦āāļø
connection error constantly!
I think they ran out of duct tape
Game is unfortunally complete unplayable. Set it to mainteanace please @tacit obsidian
Chest
Oh really????
oooh. trifecta here. internet connection, network 503 and live ops? whats live ops?
If you use iOS go to your account and request a refund from Apple⦠it works
Scopely. Just learn how to code. The game was stableā¦STOP JACKING WITH WHATS NOT BROKE!
Scopely, can you please reword this message to (more accurate) "We're too cheap to pay for a better AWS tier that would handle peak loads, so please bear with us while we crash your game a few more times in the next hour at least"?
Itās almost comical at this point how badly they can screw everything up
Donāt worry, theyāll give us 1 shard of an officer nobody uses.
What a JOKE, 3 years in and they cannot even get the game to work on a day with almost no events.
I think it is offline now
How is this happening with an event weāve been doing for years????
as usually .... trying to fix something and breaking the game, only reaction will be SLOW MODE.... @tacit obsidian
āPlease check the competency of your serversā
As one of my alliance mates said "I've met genuine psychopaths with less issues than this game has right now"
Thanks scopley
At least you can stay in long enough to get ther elol
Once again game is unplayable and broken and once again no communication at all.
It is beyond me how anyone can consider this such a premium service.
#free the game
at least I'm not the only one not able to stay online
Alcoholics Anonymous Define insanity as repeating the same action over and over again and expecting different results. Alcoholism is a disease. Therefore we the members of this community who play stfc must all be diseased. We are all insane clinically. We keep repeating the same events and actions over and over and yet we expect different results and we are surprised when the different results don't happen. We all need to wake up and seek intervention
Good I thought it was my internet
same here, game crashes every 2 minutes on PC and mobile
They broke game againš¤£
Yeah weāre all in the same boat
Scopely get a grip⦠this is terrible
Problems with the Game please , we need your support
Who is in charge for this game? A referent or something
@Scopeley W T A F?
could get a little full then š
i love how it always blames my connection...
I canāt stay connected
No events on 57, keep getting booted off, very annoying
Games completely broken. Give everyone a shield NOW & get it fixed!!!!
Or give me full pull korinar and I will forgive you
More scopely fskery
Events are borked and it keeps dropping connection at random.
unlock daily goals at level 3.... yeah I did that 20 levels ago š
Oh servers downā¦ā¦ā¦no communication with servers
can't login at all, must be lunch time
Dear Scopely,
STFC suffers from incompetent coding, a complete lack of QA and management that is more concerned with deadlines than delivering a quality product. You want us to spend money on the game but you continue to deliver GARBAGE!
Login - Network Error - Resets - Network Error Resets...repeat
ya had 1 day shield up at at 11 pm last night woke up at 530 am to find i was being raided. now i can't get into game like wtf
IDK what you guys expect, this kinda stuff happens every day š¤£
I agree that its wholly unacceptable, but... did you really expect anything different?
....
Nothing tonight is a new event, all just the same old things being rehashed. How can Scopely get even that wrong
The Scopely boss hit the event starter Borg button
Iām jealous of anybody who says their game crashes every 2 minutes, the best Iāve managed is to stay in for 20 seconds before it cores.
If everyone would just buy more of the LOW PRICED $99 packs they could afford good programmers. JEEEEZ you guys 
The Prime Login Pack will be soon available through the webstore for 99.99 of your local currency.
Ummm feedback is FIX IT!!!!!!!
ERROR 503<<<<<<<<<<<
This is crap when you only have a certain amount and times to play
Game running as intended again I see š¤£
The game developers need to acknowledge the game is broken, and there needs to be an entire month where instead of new shiny junk being shoved in, they need to fix the issues theyve created. If people know thats occuring, they will be far less irrate. The current system where the devs trip over their own ass's to fix things on the fly as more issues get programmed in is going to make me quit.
not working
Well I feel maintenance may be inbound. They need to stick another plaster on the gaping wound that is this games code - cos sadly thatās all they can do. š”
Wotacockup
It is all part of the DS9 spy event, Sisko, Kira and Miles has joined forces to avoid detection. They can be found at Quarks bar with the rest of Scopely
The money they spent to pay Frakes, Spiner and LeVar to do misleading commercials coulda been used to FIX THE GAME
I'd say this must be embarrassing for them, but it's apparent at this point Scopely has no shame.
I am almost sure, the Containment of the borg Event has failed and the Game got assimilated... š
That would detract from perfection
Well that sucks; when the events first started I saw, but did not click on, a gift chest for extra transwarp tokens. Itās not there anymore now that the game is semi-stable.
Semi stable like kanye...
this right here is the #1 reason people leave this game
Same as always scopley
Slow mode activated! Even the discord server can't handle a little activity before being crippled by "lag". š¤£
how am i supposed to do the borg events if the borg events don't tell me what I'm supposed to do lol
You do random things until you start getting points. š I was getting points and reached the first MS just killing hostiles. Then everything borked.
i'm beginning to think that they enjoy being called and seen as incompetent by the entire world
Ships flying backwards into capture nodes ... must be a new feature.
They thought R was for 'Race 'not 'Reverse'
OK wow Scopley game is unplayable since reset, events don't load, faction stores, and or repeatedly stuck in a loading screen.
Another borg event and still no new systems...pleaseeeeeee add new higher systems
The borg will tell you what to do, but they have to assimilate you first š¤£
Does Scopely make money off the word "Retrieving"?
. . .
Our team is in 2nd place! We just have no idea why š
Somebody forgot to feed the hamsters.
Extreme lag server 68 sigh thought weād got past this
Extreme lag on server 156 too. Plz Scopely, fix this.
I think its ALL servers
glad we are getting timely updates on the issue
Total radio silence again
Here you go, censor bot. Because words hurt feelings.
š„ŗ
It's all your own fault! You have kept on using your credit cards to fund Scopely and their hopeless coders
it's everyones bandwidth obvs... stop using 28.8 modems
stop paying the share holders this month and buy a new server farm they won't miss the payments just send them your fav word "retrieving "
Hey! Who got the upgrade? I'm still on 14.4 š¤£
Latest patch is another dumpster fire ... but announcing a new community manager takes priority?
the people writing coms and the people writing code are not the same people, not to backup scopely on that...
AND we still no clue when the next incursion will drop, but this is important?
@tacit obsidian we don't need anymore community managers. It's clear your pull with scopely DevOps is minimal to say the least. Consistent ignoring of regularly reported issues, and then the whole game goes dead this morning and not so much as a peep from you or scopely. No one wants another community manager to send platitudes on this server. Hire real developers!
Yeah sorry @royal solar your content is great but you're inheriting a sinking ship here. @tacit obsidian still looking for incursion info and the silence is deafening. Is this really how scopley thinks of its community? Priorities are seriously backwards right now.
Communication about a new community manager is obviously more important than a game that is unplayable.
@tacit obsidian Lame excuse for not engaging with the community when there has been so many issues with the game. Like this evening... complete radio silence with the lag and other issues. Also still no updates on incursions.. This game needs competent devs and fixing at its core before moving forward with more content
When will we be able to clear the battle log/inbox? Been close to a week at least now, if not more.
The ocd in me is going nuts. Then there is the random lag spikesā¦
Putting items in store, which you can't use either way? I'm ops 12, I don't have that tree yet
Can you stop putting red flags/exclamation marks on everything in game - itās so distracting!! Plus, on another topic, itās now been 5 days so when will you fix my research queue. I logged 2 tickets and first one got closed with no explanation. You could ensure to at least reply back. Thank you!
Ever since I reached "Pawn" in the Augment faction, I get attacked in their space. š Why?
Because it work the inverse of others faction. You will always be hunted, but there way to mine around it and it can be useful later to have auto attack
Check here for some Tips #š¾-bug-reporting message
Well. That's fun. š lol. Thanks for the help. I'll try that š
man, that kneejerk š© reaction was quiiick
Good luck bek.
OmG no one cares about a new CM! Jeezus, stop shoving it down our throats. We get it.
Well yay.. will that get Geody fixed on botany bay? Just more head patting
Why do I feel like @royal solar has no idea what she got into ā¦
When you put enough zeros on a paycheck, does it matter?
Only if it's enough to cover the therapy their gonna need
Maybe paid in prime packs... š¤
@tacit obsidian almost 6 hours in and it's still retrieving
Functioning as intended
What problem is a new community manager solving? Especially one that admittedly knows next to nothing about this game? With all the issues this game has, it's like repainting the bedroom while the rest of the house is on fire
The new CM is a former CC and player of STFC
I wonder, if the event-shop will be extended by 1 day? It lasts exactly as long as the borg-events will. The usual Officer-SLB will give credits, that cannot be spend as the shop runs out in 2d17h
@vale wasp is this āšā meant as a āyes, it will beā?
It means thank you for reporting that. I've escalated it.
I too would like this mornings server mess to be addressed. Half an hour of issues is becoming normal lately. But this was closer to two hours before it was stable enough to see events and complete claims.
New person is great and welcomed. But I think ignoring the server mess with that being the only post rubbed a lot of people the wrong way
Like Eco the new person won't have the power to do anything!
Hiring a content creator that went awol for a month might not be the best hire if youāre looking to improve communication
Maybe she went awol for a reason 𤨠like a new job, new meeting, new coffee mug to buy
show us where the content creator hurt you
Your "merge" on s65 gave us 30 new players and now we don't get incursions because of that? After last month's bp, and now this, it's like you guys are trying to get us to quit...
Is there going to be a bonus refinery? Is there going to be a mini battlepass?
Yes and yes. Date to be finalized and announced later
@royal solar You going to get the Actian space fixed?
So the communication and working with Bek has been going on for quite some time. The reason for them not making content is due to the process of coming on board with us.
Hiring someone can take a bit of time
I can start tomorrow, Im ready to smash some keyboards and get some butts in gear
@tacit obsidian @royal solar just saying, s65 feels really bad this week. You spring a merger on us this week with 1 day heads up, promise to run the merger events and gifts but then don't, and then you give us a bye week on the first incursion with a new event store.
Feels real bad. Can't you create bye-week events at least?
We all know that the community managers are not the developers, designers, coders, owners ect. Bek and eco are here to my understanding to keep us informed and also keep the scopley crew apprised of how badly they are failing.
Youāre complaining because you donāt get incursion? Huh. Strange world we live in.
The subspace relay building is one of the best buildings in the station. Missing out on the chance to upgrade it is a big loss
I pointed out to @tacit obsidian you should not be penalised for a bye week in re subspace relay or mantis ect bps
@Eco @stfc_bek just saying, s65 feels really bad this week. You spring a merger on us this week with 1 day heads up, promise to run the merger events and gifts but then don't, and then you give us a bye week on the first incursion with a new event store.
Feels real bad. Can't you create bye-week events at least?
They can't create regular events successfully. What makes you think they can make special server specific events? They do good to keep the game stable enough to run. Anything else and you might as well as ask for world peace from them. They might actually be able to deliver on that request first...
Wow, that sounds like a bad situation. They should definitely run the server merge events at the very least!
They sell a pack for that now. š
Please just put the Franklin A skin in the cash shop. Or come up with a SMS for some shards or start including shards in event stores. Some of us don't have time to run armadas all day for the leaderboards.
A limited availability pack with limited life time quantity it seems. Bye week is detrimental to overall server growth and the relay building is snow-bally. The higher level it is, the more likely you win in pvp, meaning the more likely you are to upgrade it.
a bulk of the rewards for the Subspace come from the Raider SLB. PVP gives 1/4 of the rewards.
Well there is also the overall incursion win rewards, which is awarded to every player on the winning side along with a significant exo. Extremely beneficial for your servers f2p and limited spenders.
Yes the old scoring did heavily favor raiding, but pvp is still significant.
a whole 750 subspace relays for the entire server LOL. 1st for the Raider gets 15k, I believe the PVP one is 4k? Saying it favors the PVP is false... correct would be the more you RAID the more likely you are to get subspace.
But the relay doesn't just affect pvp performance. A substantial hhp bonus like it provides means you may be able to grind higher hostiles, ruin higher armadas. So yes, 1-5 players get a substantial reward from raiding, but when your server wins, you're more likely to win future incursions as well.
10k is more than you get from incursion
I have only seen the pack once and have not been able to purchase it again.
Really frustrated with the player community. The emoticons of middle-finger on status updates, and the constant negative-non-cronstuctive feedback. I'd appreciate a new player mentality in 2023. TY
@tacit obsidian do better, ur dog and pony show today fell very short; the content creators in my opinion were overly kind to bugley
What load bs, quality and bug free updates been non existent in 2022. E
Thereās a reason for the overall grumpiness with Scopely. Actually many reasons. Weāre all hopeful for improvement going into next yearā¦
Players once a week, preferable a monthly problem, mantis been bugged since it launched for paid content. 90 days still not working or changed. To nothing but grind were your ko to buffs not working or non existent.
Cardi crews are ridiculous manā¦
We need better borg armada sourcing. And no, I donāt mean more $99.99 packs⦠ways to get basic things for participation in reasonable quantitiesā¦
Pretty much no one in my alliance has more than 1-5 directives. Purchasing more using borg event currency negates our ability to get anything ELSE from the event store. Therefore, we are forced to bankrupt ourselves on this borg event currency in order to compete with those who P2W. Not cool.
@royal solar welcome to the team. Happy you're here to help with communication. The #1 thing I want from you is the incursion schedule posted before the prep events happen. -- This month alliances assumed incursions would be happening the same week as the prep events and activated their expensive territory buffs, got screwed over by the late communication (not blaming you this time)
The #2 thing will be explainers for the new currencies/gameplay loops (ex Bajoran grind loop, espionage events) released concurrently with the monthly patch notes
New folks (one group) are great but I am hoping the lack of notice, complete absence of promised events, gifts and compensation mean we are still in the queue for a proper server merge on 65. S65 still needs new players.
I am trying to get Star Trek Fleet command to run on my windows 10 computer. screen 3440x1440 64Gb Ram, intel core i7-8700 @ 3.20GHz, Nvidia GeForce RTX2080ti
I have enabled Direct Play for legacy games.
when i start the game i get up until this screen and it just stays there <see attached>.
Yeah werenāt we supposed to get free gifts every day, all week? No Gifts, No Notice⦠Is it Scopelyās policy to slap players in the face?
Hello, were you able to get anything done about my merphasic credits, as I still haven't received any and support hasn't gotten back to me yet either.
No gifts, no incursion š”
Why are we playing?
I'm barely playing this week.
Good question! They just keep mishandling communication and breaking their word
I took a screenshot of the communique on the board about the merger so I can ask them about those gifts we were suppose to get after merging.
