[tepid bramble]

This Bajoran rep missing is awfully specific and makes no sense why it is gone. What they did to make that happen seems shady and causes me concern as nothing new in this update should have effected just that ONE thing 🤨.

[gleaming nebula]

Nice update scopely, didn’t see any apple user asking for a fireplace, still we got one, my phone is starting to overheat

[mossy leaf]

Another broken mission. The Kim of Infinite Promotion has the same problem as Silver Scar, with an incorrectly labeled mission point behind a locked path

[balmy harbor]

ipads too… HAPPY 4th ev1

[sullen matrix]

as with the Fleet Commander GFX, the 2000s want their graphics back

[gleaming nebula]

Seriously, instead if fixing useless pip’s scopely should fix the lagging and crashing that’s making the game unplayable, crashing every 2-3 min is something i do care about, the pip’s i don’t give a ***** a**** about @royal solar

[velvet trench]

Still waiting. 🤷‍♂️ left it open for 30 mins. Tried rebooting the phone multiple times. Opened and closed the app 20x … meh

[tough summit]

Q looks like "achievements" thing.. what about field training

[vague trellis]

they added a new research for ops41+ that gives more Bajoran rep, I guess that is why it is affected

[tepid bramble]

Yeah, I saw that 🙄 (after I went looking through what else they could have possibly messed up). I swear scopy could (does) screw up a wet dream 😂

[balmy harbor]

they most likely don’t know what that is

[winged lodge]

How long is the “adjusting” supposed to take? Wheel been spinning for 30. I it’s now. This is 7th try.

[rain veldt]

^^^^ This. Not only is it bad UI design, but it seems to be intentionally put there because their marketing-design-first types are aware of muscle memory and think we are too stupid to not know where to click it elsewhere so they put it where we will accidently hit it a million times

[balmy harbor]

you made it in the game?

[fallen epoch]

You can’t?

[nova sierra]

The sheer volume of currencies added this month makes me think there will be multiple bugs this arc. But the new features and officers sound great so far

[balmy harbor]

not til just now. been trying for 3 hrs

[fallen epoch]

#👾-bug-reporting

Answer is in there

[kind star]

And again in my alliance 2 players quit (50+). Why? Because Scopely just won't listen to the players. 1000 different currencies, where you can hardly see through. Many things are only available in completely overpriced packs in the store. Officers are made more and more difficult to access. Constantly new ships that are difficult to level up. Paywalls everywhere. I predict the end of the game this year if things don't change. Players will leave the game in moderation, servers will be orphaned. The events are also becoming more and more stupid. Ongoing new prime research that trumps other expensively purchased ones. It's all just a joke.

[tepid bramble]

I already said the game will be dead by Christmas 🎅

[kind star]

Then no one should spend even a penny more on it. Scopely does not deserve it.

[deft siren]

why you raised the price for Standard BP? gg

[fallen epoch]

Still the same

[half sigil]

What did they do to the game? Same crew same zone and same ship now takes way more damage farming actian

[deft siren]

nope. last BP 19.99€. now 22,99€ in your webstore.

[fallen epoch]

That changed last month

Prices were updated half way through the month

[sacred garden]

I’m lvl 41 , I’ve updated my game yet did not and seen not anything in the gift section for the trial of Q building. I can’t build it if i can’t get the stuff I need. It says reach lvl 19 to be able to get this building as I said I’m lvl 41 games updated yet nothing for it in the gift section

[fallen epoch]

Not out yet

[sacred garden]

Yet I got all the rest for it already

[fallen epoch]

Be patient

[arctic knoll]

are you kidding me you increase the prices for the pc? let me guess installing buggs costs more now

Issue with “adjusting” still ongoing? Can’t get back into my account and I am quite remote from any good 5G connection

Nice update I could actually get in the game before I did the update not anymore

[fallen epoch]

You will need to try again on mobile data unfortunately, that’s the only way I usually get in

[torpid kelp]

your direct shop page costs the same, let me guess... you just adjusted your prices to the level of the others

[gaunt river]

@tacit obsidian is this an intentional increase in price on PC? Yes or no please. I need to know whether to wait to purchase or not.

[fallen epoch]

Caps at 75 idk how much is given out though

[nova sierra]

@tacit obsidian I just want to thank you and $copely for not improving the game, lag, creating new bugs, not setting up new arcs correctly, only listening to the feedback that suits which has to be less 1% but your latest botch job and ridiculous price increase has put the final nail in this games coffin for me, I am quitting the game right now

[old seal]

How much absolute nonsense events / currencies can Scopely squeeze into one arc? Everything is contrived content and nothing less than a chore to " play " this game.

[velvet trench]

I’m not quitting the game. The game quit me 😂. Even the brand new iPad got stuck. I gave up. Back to real life. It was a pleasure, all 👋

[kind mulch]

Will there be a 4th of July recognition somewhere?

[kindred siren]

@ SCOPELY Its llagging like hell! Don't you guys ever test your software?

[old seal]

Why?

[spice wren]

Server 133 Server lag like hell

[robust viper]

@tacit obsidian Maybe time to issue some refunds of outlaw tokens and bells to players who are stationed in rogue space and started the Q test. I am unable to complete the test due to not having enough tokens to go shoot the target. The test is now prematurely over for me. These things should of been made clear to players really.

[reef burrow]

Omg! Seriously!! The LAG and STABILITY are horrendous!!

EU178

[kind mulch]

@old seal, I don't understand the question. It's American Independence Day, a national holiday. There was something last year and the year before if memory serves. Plus Gene Roddenberry was a WW2 vet and LAPD officer.

[stiff rover]

I’m getting F’n sick and tired of these refinery cool down. If we have the resources we should be able to use it.

[karmic widget]

Scopely have lost the plot this month. Scamming more money out of uk customers with price rises to make us pay 30% more than guys in the US, then delivering more appalling unplayable content. Seriously do you think this stuff is any good or are you relying on people just shrugged and saying... Thats just scamley?
Was actually looking.forwqrd to Qs trials... Unfortunately whats been implemented is just rubbish. The lag (which was supposed to be fixed months ago with the "back end" improvements) is making this a steaming pile of horse dung.

[grave quest]

@tacit obsidian the lag is so bad, it takes three game restarts just to repair a ship, avatar images aren’t showing, and chat is a few minutes wait. this is despite all “normal” measures like app update / cache reset / etc. From what i read this is the least of the issues today, but it is making it unplayable to even find those other issues 😂

[pallid jackal]

HUGE lag on 167 at the moment

[jagged scarab]

The new trials sending our members to waste tokens is poor user experience to me. Having to burn 2 to 3 different tokens to complete is beyond frustrating, especially since it's a waste if you die.

[mossy leaf]

@tacit obsidian Failed my very first trial and lost the bells because even though I'm ops 39, it tried to send me along a superhighway from a low-level independent system to a DS system you have to be ops 53 to access. How are lower level players supposed to know they need to move their bases several legs away from wavy lines they’ve never used and didn’t even know did anything, before starting those trials? The game doesn’t tell us that.

Arc just launched and I’m already over Q Trials, because I don’t have any way of knowing what else I’m going to get screwed over for not knowing to do even though I read everything in-game I could find before starting. Just too stressful. Easier to just grind reds to finish sms; slb isn’t worth the worry.

[ocean kayak]

How I get my lost used points bk cause of this lag?

[pallid jackal]

The amount of compensation chests needed to fix all of these wrongs are enormous - I suggest a full event reset with compensation tokens for everybody affected while you guys first fix the issues that this poorly programmed arc have introduced. The game is unplayable at the moment. Who figured spawning trial objectives in a token system was a good idea 😂🤦‍♂️

[daring mist]

There's a huge lag in the game for the last 45 minutes at least

[grave quest]

it’s so bad, even the webstore is borked due to lag so the mission keys can’t be claimed

[still shore]

same here, it's nearly unplayable on both win and android.

[hardy bane]

Is there a documented problem with starting a new trial before clicking on the "CLAIM" button on a previous trial? I think I lost the points for my first one, didn't realize I had to go back to claim it.

[stuck remnant]

@tacit obsidian come on mate get your guys to sort theis game out. Game is freezing and we're having to restart the game constantly. This really isn't the way to run a game that people pay a lot of money to play!

[still shore]

very embaracing and disappointing with a 16 gig ram system

[subtle nacelle]

Game is borderline unplayable. Took almost 5 mins to kill a Q hostile, that was less than 1 min travel time away. Everything just stuck spinning

[pallid jackal]

I stop playing for now - this is absurd

[ancient heron]

Lag on 86 is also bad.

Have them try loading in with mobile data instead. They will need to force restart the game and airplane mode on and off first. Then load on mobile data

[white moth]

With mobile data I have same lag on my server

Seems to be the worst update ever

[mighty umbra]

mobile data lol, doesn't matter if you're playing on pc or mobile phone in wlan or data...

[kind star]

The lag is getting worse and worse, I keep getting kicked out of the game. Supposedly it is the provider and has nothing to do with Scopely's update. Who believes it....

[white moth]

I just came online, wanted to buy me passport and not even that goes....

This has become the bird club here

Tell you what scopley, ill buy all the primes RIGHT NOW and pay you in 20 years when my 'lag' catches upto the payment, seem reasonable?

[proper narwhal]

The game is unplayable

[meager drum]

Scopely picked their provider. You didn't. It is 100% Scopely's fault, yet they are trying to blame it on a third party.

[mighty gyro]

@royal solar what title do your QA testers have? Oh that’s right, END USER/Player/Beta Tester

[winter oyster]

Set aside this might be the dumbest research loop yet (and that is saying a lot). The event calendar already has the incorrect dates, and the game is riddled with more bugs than usual. Constant crashing or freezing.

[oblique jungle]

Dear scopely, yes EU servers are bad today but let's be honest... the past month I've had to reload my app 5 times every time I spend time on it. Everytime I change screens (click on events, or go into some tab etc) I guarantee you my app freezes like it can't handle all the effort..
And quite honestly when you're claiming that much money on packs (and even increased prices) the least you could do is get better servers, if indeed that is the issue.
Or gimme back my money, idk. 🙄

[forest vine]

What were you guys saying about reducing grind? Can you repeat?

[modest quartz]

why you guys dont put the game in maintenace mode and fix it ^^

I like to play a game with a lot of bugs and lags

[rich pendant]

Max number of bells seems to be a little bit too small right now compared to the daily requirement and even to the daily gift. Going lore friendly is nice but need to be careful to not make gameplay suck in doing that.

[willow galleon]

Why doesn’t anyone from Scopely get on here and tell us what they are doing

[fallen epoch]

Daily cap is 75 which is enough for lower daily

[manic python]

@tacit obsidian
how about peace shield for EU server if the connection could be lost. thx

[blissful bluff]

that's fun. I send a ship somewhere and have to reload the game. I'll be doing those missions until God knows when. Really amazing.

[fallen epoch]

Asking about this

[cosmic vault]

I can't even get into game

[forest vine]

Can Scopely make 1, just 1, patch where we don't have to play and compete "What is the latest bug"? Is that too much to ask? How about reducing the absolute nightmare that is the grind? You made it better with freebooters, then you go ahead and mess it up royaly...

[desert sigil]

completely unplayable with a kill count SLB on, what a joke

[cerulean quest]

Do the EU servers get compensation chest for the lag like US and Apac servers did in the past ? #no 😆

[blissful bluff]

So I'm ending today, because I won't load the game anymore and I won't wait an hour to then have to wait an hour for it to load again after one click. At least I have a shield. Server 180 in case anyone forgot.č

Why not use aws elasticache in stead of redis? Scalable and stable

[fallen epoch]

Don’t cross post

[pallid jackal]

it's weird that Scopely says the issue lies with Redis - currently I don't see any mention of Redis Cloud Services having issues.

[old seal]

😂if I was a Dev I wouldn't punish the servers with this rubbish arc.
Spock is Vulcan....I demand the National Holiday date followed by an event for all Vulcans or peeps with pointy ears 🤣🤣
Next National Bajor Day followed by Cardassian National Day.
My point is that they are fictional characters...yes Kirk too. Even when Will Smith smacked some aliens on Independence Day doesn't make it real.

[rich pendant]

still an issue. It's like having tetryon capacity at 25 and saying it's enough for the lower daily with a lvl 26 ship.

[fallen epoch]

Wrong comparison. It’s the same as doing the Titan A or Mantis lower daily or saving up to do both just not doing it every day.

[signal raft]

New Lvl 19 mission just randomly vanished half way through completion. Can't complete the dang thing if it ain't there. It's also happened to other people.

[nova sierra]

Quality of life improvements needed. Game is 50%+ loading screens now. Instead of clicking into each material in the refinery, could the options pop up in a bubble instead? Meanwhile the ongoing lag issues suggest the number of currencies has reached critical mass - do the inventories of each currency refresh with the server regularly, and could this be causing lag?

[rich pendant]

Both of them still have a max capacity that allows you to save to do both in a day. So, again, it's like having Venom capacity at 1000. You can't save the bells because the max capacity is 75. You would need to get capped, start doing the dailies, redeem the gift, then finish doing the dailies. It's awful design, and this is my feedback. Not sure why you are arguing in a channel specifically provided to give such feedback.

[kind mulch]

@old seal, America is real, even if those captains are fictional. You and I can agree that this arc is rubbish, though.
You asked why, and now I've answered you. You're throwing out a red herring each time an Independence Day justification is offered. I'm done with you. This is the forum for feedback, and I've left it.

[elfin coyote]

Everything is either a timeout or it says check your Internet connection... If you guys would just check YOUR Internet connection... Cause mine has never been the problem... EU 164 btw

[dense kayak]

Apparently it's the service provider for the EU that is having some ass problem, Redis or something

[proper raft]

Players: please stop adding currencies.
Scopely :here are those currencies you asked for…

[elfin coyote]

Last time it was Amazon... Now it's a 3rd party whatever... Just never Scopely's fault 😂

[dense kayak]

Hoooha

[odd pebble]

So is scopely acting like this is only an EU problem? I get disconnected from my US server as soon as I connect on the pc client. Game is literally unplayable currently

[nova sierra]

See official announcements re EU servers.

[elfin coyote]

Funny thing is, this always begins when all the events start... So how can this be a backend or Amazon problem?

[lilac tundra]

Great 👍🏻 after update …now the Gamecrashes in 2-3min …we’ll done Scop 👎🏻

[nova sierra]

And how do you expect us to complete the events, when the game is keeping disconect

[odd pebble]

Inb4 a comp chest of 5m steel and 1 Geordi shard

[hoary estuary]

You know the biggest issue for me? It’s the fact in first communique they spell it Reddis, and now Redis. If the main community manager writing these announcements has no clue how it’s spelled, I can’t see this being fixed overnight.

[elfin coyote]

Well, to be fair, it's just a typo. But seriously, the more you implement, they higher is the load on a server. Either you get a server with more performance or you need to tweak existing features for lower load.

[errant brook]

I will end playing today. This Game cannot be played casually and consumes far too much time. Every month a new loop with even more grinding while established Content is never consolidated and a lot of stuff feels unfinished. This game became a mess and will implode. I'm out

[elfin coyote]

Microsoft Windows - > BlueScreen Of Death (BSOD)
Scopely STFC - > Circle Of Death (COD)

[hot spoke]

Whats up with PC Version?

[elfin coyote]

It's the server, no matter if PC or Mobile. Can't kill NPCs, nor mine, nor mission running... It's just a huge LAG and TIMEOUT and DISCONNECT.

[hot spoke]

mobile workd fine

[maiden stag]

Or figure out how to use a load balancer, not an unsolved problem.

[elfin coyote]

That would mean we got more than one server or more than one NIC. I doubt we got any of it. 😂

[odd pebble]

I'm on a US server and getting booted every 2 mins. Can almost use it as a timer it's so consistent

[fresh torrent]

Things I cannot do today on S78: mining, recalling, reading battle logs, relocating base, refining of any sort, opening chests, chatting, using the new trial feature, opening Bajoran faction, changing crews, and not getting booted from the game. But hey, hailing frequencies are working great 👌🏼

[maiden stag]

Sounds like they are using Redis as SaaS and with the way they are talking about AWS I don't think they've got any excuse not to have these problems solved... I just want to know what this means "Redis is installing some additional back end support", are they downloading some RAM or something?

I sympathise with the devs, I'm a dev too. The way scopely are managing this project is really quite bad.

[vapid goblet]

Can we have a monthly Q&A, town hall etc where devs can answer community questions directly? A 30-60 min session every month isn’t a big ask.
The most voiced/mentioned questions will have the priority.
Many responsible game devs will run such event, it is quite common and definitely will bring a positive impact.
I don’t think this channel is fit for purpose.

[oblique jungle]

I demand an event for bastille day as picard is french.

[ashen lantern]

where do I redeem that shard? 👀

[rich pendant]

That's intentional. (if you mean 'fix that' as in 'this is a bug/glitch')
"Each Trial comprises either an Explorer, a Battleship or an Interceptor. It suits me that the hostiles I make you face in the Trial will generally be the same type. Anything else is too much effort for me. However, that said, I will sometimes select a special hostile for you to face, which may be of a different ship type. I am not here to make things easy for you. For your own good!"

[hoary estuary]

I’m not gonna spend anymore either. Always more every month, every week. And packs not worth the value. And still no multiphasic credits on phone shop. Ridiculous. Takes 2 basic salaries every month minimum. While the basic things are still not fixed or implemented. Very deceived by Scopely, I wonder what the Saudi would say about all this… I’m not sure the Sharia law would allow so much unlawful profit and interest money and not sure how the “not spending money on random games” should work out. I’d be interested to see the opinions of players from Dubai, and Saudi Arabia…

One week old iPad, fresh boot up, game has crashed three times in ~20 min trying to look at the new stuff. Game is basically PC-only at this point.

[surreal condor]

For the miner will not mine with FT applied, we had a player report that he switched two below decks officers around (e.g. just swapped their position) and it worked. Obviously it's a pain because you have to recall, etc etc.

when will the eu disconnections be fixed eta?

Dear <@&509691205798592532> … If you accept a suggestion, maybe you should consider to add a channel/section to the discord server called something like “known-workarounds”, where you clinch the workarounds for the different bugs (and remove them when the bug is solved)
It should save quite some messages…

[open schooner]

Yep

[cloud lantern]

**Fusion Rods 🤢 **
by forcing us to always pay for opening the slot of every ship we want to use em this whole system becomes a pay to use frequently feature.
don´t get me wrong, it might be ok to invest those rods into epic g3 and g4+ ships, but when i think about ships like the vidar stella or franklin which will get scrapped and at the end loose their expensive slot for nothing it is just not worth it.

i still need to note myself a few numbers, but these fusion rods only exists because you want to monetise them. isn`t it complicated enough already?
personally that is a big TURNOFF for me.

1 container 500 credits.... no idea how many we get for 75 / 125 bells daily. but will take a few weeks for ONE ship alone.
not mentioning it being completely broken on mining ships while not explaining it well enough.

people who didn´t try it out have 10k more then the sad researchers.

[glad quartz]

Awesome 4th of July. App crashes/closes every 1-2 minutes w/ server disconnects, can't mine nodes etc. Son's account on the same server, same hardware no issues.

[vale wasp]

You can try removing all FT'd ships from the docks, or removing the FT from them to help with that crashing issue.

[radiant stirrup]

again many are having an issue where we dont even get a chance to click
let alone make moves and remove ships and items and crew

[vale wasp]

Won't help everyone, but for some it will work.

[keen star]

My general feedback is this: if you're going to release new mechanics at these price points, test them before releasing them. This month is full of bugs!

[glad quartz]

thanks, i"ll try that.

[foggy light]

You seriously need to stop putting the Q Trials hostiles in the Territory of other Alliances. Otherwise destroying the hostile will not be the biggest part of Q Trials.

[vale wasp]

It spawns a target 2 systems from your station. I'd move to a better spot if you don't want to have them spawn there.

[turbid ruin]

I mean I guess there's always The Omega Glory suggesting that American ideals are so universal they literally spawned word for word on another planet. XD
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGO-SldLrNA

[sour dew]

Game is full of glitches and has heavy lag on Server 29. 1* Trials done yet can't utilize rewards even with building at LvL 3 and 4.

[foggy light]

Some people are having them spawn in token systems.
That is stupid.
Moving your base temporarily for an Event like Incursions or Realta Battle...fine but for a permanent mechanic with daily tasks...no, not ok.

[oak dome]

Your game is F'd, PC client keeps resetting every 30 seconds on Server 31. 2 thumbs up.

Same on IOS

[foggy light]

Is that an EU server?

[foggy light]

Probably related to the work announcement.

[stray pine]

Server 16 wont stay connected for more than 30 seconds before ‘connection issue’ and force reset on ios.

[tropic sinew]

Forbidden tech has made my ship unusable, thanks Scopley(once AGAIN not testing crap, before releasing CRAP)!

[void pine]

Restart simulator, amirite?

[vale wasp]

I'd try the pinned workaround in #👾-bug-reporting

[elder pollen]

Still need connection issues details? iOS right after clicking to upgrade a building. Code visible in bg. US/54

[tropic sinew]

I read a work around, is for us to remove the FT, are we going to be re-imbursed personally as you have to pay to remove the FT that's breaking the game. And I'm not talking about sending out the entire community a chest with a refund for this(the ones not even affected), because that's crappy. I mean individually for every person affected..

[vale wasp]

That's up to scopely.

[nimble wharf]

A workaround for the broken officer screen is to switch to ViDar or another ship with a million officer slots, make your changes then go back to FT ship

[void pine]

The losing connection is worse on the PC app, it seems to occur every 15-30 seconds. Should have stayed on iOS as I stopped being kicked out there for quite a bit. Rather annoying since I applied G4 exocomps that I can't use since it's always "scanning" and then I just get booted.

[elder pollen]

So I restarted the game (again) and went in to change my crew and got this screen

[wind tartan]

Same

[willow hull]

Game is broken af. “Check internet connection” over and over

[void pine]

Pretty much, I can't even stay connected long enough to reach the support section and send them a picture with all these error codes.

[vale wasp]

You can use one of the other options in #👽-how-to-contact-support

[nimble wharf]

Directly trying to edit officers on FT ship shows those screenshots above. I think you have to swap your docked ships to non FT ones to prevent crashes but haven’t tried that myself.

[tropic sinew]

Wait what?! Scopley releasing something new that's never been tested, and it's broken? No way

[elder pollen]

Kinda gives “Forbidden Technology” a new meaning

[nimble wharf]

I put the spiky ball tech on my Meridian. Doesn’t improve mining at all but at least I get credit using my Meridian on FT-equipped hostile SMS

[tropic sinew]

Still angry that Scopley literally doesn't test anything before releasing it, and it's almost always broken.... BUT thank you specifically... the work around did it for me (swap out FT ship having crewing problems for a different ship, crew it how it's supposed to be, then swap back to FT ship). At least my main ship isn't dead in the water anymore..

[nimble wharf]

I get 3 points per hostile rather than 1 (I think I am supposed to get 4 but meh)

[delicate nacelle]

Why do you feel the need to make everything so complicated Scopely? Q court? I popped a 7 day shield because it's already a mess. I want to spend less time in game, not more. It's become a full time job trying to keep up with everything. Prioritize what's important.. the game not so much.

[tropic sinew]

The irony is, they officialy said they were going to make the game "less of a grind", then proceeded to release a bunch of extra grinds...you can't make this up

[chrome elm]

ridiculous

every items tab looks like this, then the screen freezes and i’m booted from the game… i am not on the loot screen, but it thinks i am

[tropic crown]

Don’t put forbidden tech on your surveyors it will break them. You will be unable to mine a node. Way to go Scopley.

[muted sparrow]

https://tenor.com/view/dumpsterfire-flooding-fail-gif-13031064

[tepid bramble]

Seriously?! I just put it on my Freesha…am I boned?

[vale wasp]

I'd adjust your lower deck crew while they are in base.

[elder pollen]

I tried the ship swap workaround described above. Game crashed with the connection error twice. Finally got it. Sent the ship into Actian space. Crash. Click restart. Try to view ship on the system. Crash. Restart game. Do my grind. Recall. Crash. Restart and try to start ship repair. Instant Latinum repair is the ONLY option. I’m ready to screenshot it—CRASH. Restart. Finally can repair ship. Get ready to go out again —CRASH. THIS IS UNPLAYABLE!

[vale wasp]

There are some options for your issue pinned in #👾-bug-reporting

[hidden night]

Can we have 1 release that doesnt suck? Seriously, you guys swear these releases are tested but holy cow no freaking way! This is ridiculous!

[tropic crown]

If I click on a node it just keeps spinning and wont let me actual “dock” with it to mine.

[upper gate]

There needs to be a dedicated button in the main UI for accessing refits/forbidden tech

[prisma tulip]

have there been any estimates to when this will get fixed? dang... just revert back to the prior version

[tepid bramble]

Well damn…as if I already didn’t think this Q business was redonkulous…nice to know I am going to have to waste yellow sticks to unequip the stupid spiky ball. 🙄. I am sure scopy will make this right by everyone 🙄 sarcasm. Glad I haven’t unlocked anything for my main ships. (Was just dinking around with the “new” features. Seriously ate up worse than a soup sandwich scopy is.)

[elder pollen]

Maybe stop blaming the customers’ equipment and give some straight talk about what’s going on the server/code side? Or is everyone having the same problems a coincidence?

[vale wasp]

I haven't blamed your equipment, I've given you a workaround to enable play without the problems you're facing.

[tropic crown]

That doesn’t fix your problem if your in token space trying to get on a new node after one runs out does it?

[prisma tulip]

lol... well if it dont get fixed soon i guess i will have to surprise my wife and snuggle in a little early! 🤨

[dusty token]

Don't worry, Gordon. You can just spend $600 on all the new packs and you are all set!

[hidden night]

Lol not bloody likely, theyll be lucky to get $20 from me this month at this rate.

[dreamy fable]

[oblique hawk]

Forbidden tech is truly forbidden because it doesn’t work must be a big compensation chest in our future .. this ark is a disaster

[tropic crown]

Make DS9 look like it had a good launch!

[wanton hill]

Really need better sourcing for epic tng Picard. Not in ultra recruit boxes, not in any refinery. I’m in need of 40 more and have been since I started playing again three years ago…

[zinc swan]

Look, scopely, I get it. You want to be able to minimize exploits and unconventional progression paths, but your addiction to new currencies is getting out of hand...

There are what, 20 new currencies this arc, 10 or so are dedicated to just unlocking various trials.

Simple is good sometimes...

[oak dome]

No, US

[nova sierra]

📍 ‼️ And with exactly such mistakes you should make events. Then these are not counted...! If you write to the support, it says only in the log is "it has been made only so far"! Clearly can not be more in it, because with such errors also nothing can be transferred correctly. Thus, the rewards are then for the cat ...! Credited you get this also not, because the limited support refers only to its LOGS. ‼️

[fossil bolt]

What a mess…. Now killing freebooters in dailies doesn’t work anymore….

[foggy light]

@oak dome Yeah, I worked that out later. That's a problem. They are doing back end work on EU servers but complaints appear to be about US servers.
I have not the fastest fibre connection but a brand new gaming laptop, plenty of ram and a good gpu but it struggles to display the Event section, so I can only assume one thing.

[ancient plinth]

Once again Scopley introduces new content that doesn't work while failing to fix existing content. I have a special needs great nephew looking for a job if Scopley is hiring.

[elder pollen]

Game borked on phone and computer. Same problems reported around the globe. But have hope, there are workarounds! Pay more loot to remove that nasty FT.
Reboot every 3 clicks,
Then reboot again.
Reboot before repairs.
Reboot after too.
Time to recrew?
Swap your ships.
Crew your bridge.
Lower decks now,
line right up,
left shoulder in,
right leg out,
bow to your partner and do-si-do...

[rapid pulsar]

I give up. I can make no progress because the game crashes every time I select an option. Get it sorted Scopely 😡😡😡

[cedar badge]

the game can't be played this is funny. is there anyone in the scopy team smart enough to try all the crap they insert just once before undoing the update, this is funny

[sweet cedar]

same for me with the PC client and strong and stable connection, so defintively a problem since the last update

[elfin coyote]

Rollback the update, this is just lag, timeouts and disconnects, this is ridiculous

[errant brook]

This will never change. New content will be pushed in month by month and Nobody cares about the Community. Time for all to stop spending money...

[nova sierra]

Scopely needs a community team to engage community and collect feedback and needs to hire QA software engineers

[jagged scarab]

I have 3 ships I'm unable to access their crews without crashing the game... This is frustrating.

[nova sierra]

Super frustrating

[river willow]

Dear Scopley, with the additional influx of income today with the new arc, would you please do your player base a favor and hire some competent programmers who are more intelligent than the avg rock?

Thanks,

Players to be named later

[grim vector]

have you bought the new "stability bundle"? Only €49.99 / week and you can play! 🤑

[dark meadow]

Game is constantly disconnecting us on server 187

[jagged scarab]

Tool tip starts off screen. On Samsung Fold

[hybrid void]

Hello

[quaint plume]

Trial of Q put ship in Token area. Unreachable

[vale wasp]

Q trials will spawn the target in a system 2 spots away from your station. I'd move your station to avoid that issue before starting them.

[junior hatch]

The latest game update is even worse than the previous ones. Constant shutdowns/disconnects, errors. Inability to install a miner. Offers of support to use paid currency to fix problems. The game is turning more and more into a scam.

[sand onyx]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 Folds, nice phones that require special coding to fit apps on the screen

[radiant vine]

Swapping officers is still completely broken due to server issues this morning. Crashes the game due to server null response. EU 173 Android

[honest cargo]

UI broken

[proven tinsel]

Well done Scopay, every minute kicked out of the game... I just want to see when new BP is online everything will be okay... But I guess I won't see it anymore in my life... Good job Scopay, good job...
This must be a huge compensation chest but we have to pay for it... 😁

[torn haven]

I can only agree.. A lot of Player quitting now in our ally.. Thx Scopley for nothing!! I also think about quitting this stupid game. You lost this night some more players

[vale wasp]

Try the workaround pinned in #👾-bug-reporting

[ruby perch]

Same here on 162, constantly kik out of the game because of internet connection!!!!
I'm on WiFi an 5G gsm connection!

[vale wasp]

You should try it too.

[low shard]

Did nobody think to ask why the tech was forbidden?

[halcyon coral]

Whereas we haven't had people full on quit, we have some that are throwing up long shields and giving up for now.

[thorny wing]

Q’s daily ..does not confirm items gained like all other daily

[vale wasp]

Even after restarting the game?

Try the pinned workaround in #👾-bug-reporting

[cinder thunder]

Connection Issue......Again?? this happened last month...ugh . at the most i'm getting maybe 3 minutes play time before it does it again.

[stiff rover]

What the Hèll is going on with the continual network drop outs. 🤬🤬🙈

[cinder thunder]

lets throw them some more money so they can fix it

[vale wasp]

See my message above.

[autumn echo]

Major issue doing anything with equipped ships, cannot change crew, game crashes every time an equipped ship leaves the dock. Have to restart game every time I use a mantis or titan ship ability. And the list goes on…..

[brazen siren]

Identity crisis?

[halcyon coral]

Totally given up on IOS. Even with the workarounds it comes back and crashes. On PC though the work arounds has stopped the errors.

[rapid pulsar]

Thought it was fixed yet once again game just keeps crashing. For heavens sake get it fixed properly 😡😡😡😡😡

[leaden sleet]

what work arounds for PC?

[obsidian oasis]

This is still coming up. I've updated game.. Switched from WiFi to 4G also Aerplane Mode and researted my device, still having issues..

[north ruin]

How about fixing the lag and constant crashes rather than rolling out content with more bugs. Reinstalled game. Cleared cache and every other thing the useless support team mention. But alas still not a functioning game. Get it sorted

[vale wasp]

Check the pinned workarounds in #👾-bug-reporting

[frosty harness]

I can't play the game. On my iOS, android or PC I get kick every 60secs. I'm quitting now. Sorry, love the game but this is it unfortunately. Too much poor service for the price.

[wind vortex]

Holy heck, the "2 jumps" range for the trials includes the SUPERHIGHWAY links. Scopely incompetence truly knows no bounds.

[obtuse meadow]

I have successfully upgraded a Forbidden Technology, however, I have no score in the Forbidden Tech Upgrade - SMS, is this a known issue?

[quaint glen]

painting a free common FT "epic" is just a 💩 move when commen doesnt count at SMS

[halcyon coral]

Yeah someone on our alliance got hit by this within a few minutes of the event live yesterday. I posted the screenshot on here and Blue added a note about it. Pass the word on. I can understand people would think about token space and deep space but the super highways pass through really low level zones (like 8-9) so you can easily get caught out with it and lose 25 bells.

[obtuse meadow]

Never mind, I realised I upgraded a "Common" tech which doesn't score... Should this SMS not be labelled as "Heroic" as it surely requires purchases to get something above Common and upgrade it several times within the time limit?

[vale wasp]

The green torpedo is f2p, and some levels might be able to finish it with some amount of luck.

[obtuse meadow]

Some levels with some amount of luck still sounds like a "Heroic" level SMS to me but maybe I'm wrong, thanks for response though!

[dreamy fable]

Finish it, apply it to your ship and wreck your game?

[vale wasp]

Not everyone has a game-wrecking FT. I'm using mine right now.

Try the pinned workaround in #👾-bug-reporting if you're having issues.

[errant brook]

Or everyone should stop gaming for a week to remind Scopely that a player base is essential and changes in quality management and game design have to be made.

[zealous juniper]

The workaround of putting the ship with the FT into the hanger worked. I appreciate your help and the flak you are getting. That said this is so very poor. The literal arc mechanic breaks the game.

[autumn echo]

I can’t even repair a ship without the game crashing, seriously considering binning the whole thing off now. Real shame after so many years of effort

[dreamy fable]

@vale wasp How does any work-around help this paying customer?

[valid maple]

EU - crashed every minute for the past hour. Can't swap crews, locate hostiles, apply shield, mine, etc etc. And NO it is not my internet connection. Unplayable.

[stoic trail]

Are you using forbidden tech on any of your ships? My buddy says its stopped when he stopped using the ship that was buffed with it

[valid maple]

Yes and no. But it's constant, disconnections, lag, stuck ships. We all have it. Definitely server side.

[copper needle]

I can't mine. Just get a never ending swirly-do when I click on a node.

[hallow cliff]

Please for the god sake fix the game before starting a new arc!!

[fallen spear]

S obviously hopes, that the game eventually will fix itself 😂

[stoic trail]

Issue seems to stop when i completely removed the buffed ship from docks

[hallow cliff]

Go on a ship where you didn't unlock fobidden tech -> klick unlock and canlce it. Should work after that

[lime scroll]

Which client are you using?

[kind minnow]

use territory if u have allies surrounding u .. else dont 😉

[quaint plume]

Thank you

[stoic trail]

I cant do slb event now, i want compensation box.... big one 😂

[deft siren]

There is nothing to cancel. It’s just gone. Wow. Did you ever test what you implement? 😡

[finite cave]

i appreciate he last announcement message about disconnections but i cant even go to system view now without being kicked off. this is quite poop tbh 😦

[umbral thistle]

crashes every few minutes are making this completely unplayable

[vale wasp]

Try the workaround pinned in #👾-bug-reporting for the gaming-related issues from this month's patch. It has success with avoiding the crashing issues listed and many more not listed.

[proven tinsel]

"That's me on the smart phone... That's me on the sofa... Losing my connection... Trying to keep up my wifi... And I don't know if scopley can do it... Oh no I paid not much... I haven't payed enough..."

[nova sierra]

Some small feedback after a day with the Q-trials and FT and having completed all 1* Q-trials:

• The idea of the Q-trials and FT: Brilliant, I like the mechanics a lot as well as the possibilities it brings
• Execution of the idea: Terrible, awful, epic fail

I also find the limit of 75 bells way too small, specially when you’re done with the trials and you need to wait until the next unlock (my building is lvl 4 while next unlock will happen at lvl 7)

[haughty fjord]

Permanent disconnected from the game… you have server issues again?

[nova sierra]

@tacit obsidian Please just suspend a BP and repair all the old bugs instead. There are more and more. People will run away from you. Or rename the game to Star Trek Bug Command.

[umbral thistle]

The pinned work around did work to stop the crashes, maybe there should be an announcement in game to inform people of how to stop the crashes every few minutes while they work to solve the issue permanently?

[finite cave]

thank you, it worked 🙂

[wet meteor]

Just so we're clear; having a bug on miners being able to mine with Forbidden tech installed but it costing 1500 a pop to install AND 1500 a pop to uninstall has already cost me 6000. I'm not reinstalling until these bugs are fixed making almost the entire new "feature" utterly pointless

[limpid quarry]

do i get compensation for trying to log onto server 200 for the past 2 hours to shield? and being unable to log on?

[orchid maple]

How have they not started emergency maintenance? Game is 100% unplayable!!!

[wet meteor]

First they have to find the issues in the code, then fix them. You know; the steps they should have taken before deploying the code to live servers in the first place

[ruby rover]

Anyone else having issues with continuous disconnect "check internect connection" this morning? Can't select nodes to mine on etc...

[pearl cedar]

Anyone else's game on Android unplayable? Everytime I try to crew a ship the game crashes

[autumn echo]

Now I’ve lost the bajoran buff in claiming 24 he chest too! I think I’d better off saying what does work it would take less comments 🤣

[civic haven]

Mining total going up like the national debt tracker is giving me anxiety.

[sterile swan]

When I try to crew a ship the game displays all empty slots and freezes

[sullen crest]

removing the forbidden tech fixed my issues

[carmine pike]

Are we meant to get free Trial Bells every 21 hours & if so how many?

[hallow cliff]

Via gift chest "Building Resources" 80 per day

[compact cliff]

same on iphone. 10 times in as many minutes. is ridiculous

[obsidian robin]

I play on smartphone and the connection Cuts off on multiple points i can't progress with the events like this since yesterday just because of some Installation. I hope it gets fixed soon and that the events either get restarted or getting more time

[carmine pike]

@hallow cliff So that would be not far away for today then?

[sterile swan]

@sullen crest thanks. That fixed mine as well

[urban elm]

Can't set ATA, change crews or attach image to a support ticket, crashing every couple minutes, on Android as well

[subtle lichen]

We have players (longtime, some from prior servers) leaving. Some went when scopely was bought out. Some went when incursion was changed so drastically that what they like to do (attack stations, defend stations) no longer counted. Now we have players leaving due to massive bugs. I’d bet anything that players on older servers are seeing the same. At what point is scopely going to think about player retention? @north perch @uncut spear @tacit obsidian

[raw plinth]

Fix your game… the amount of disconnects is rediculous

[viral stratus]

Ok, I have five games on my tablet..this one is the only one that is so ridiculously glitchy on a regular basis. I keep getting “default error”, “timeout” and “check your connection” screens multiple times in a row.

(I stopped counting after 20.)

I’ve seen a possible FT workaround by taking the tech off, but what then is the point of doing the Q trials if the game is unplayable after literally every update we’ve had recently.

I’m glad I’m not the only one that feels Scopely really needs to iron these glitches/bugs or whatever before they implement them in game.

Heck, I still see those random pepto bismol pink glitches on the nodes in system. They can apparently shove all these new events/missions/builds in here, but can’t fix a simple glitch?

[tropic crown]

They wont, they never do.

[fallen spear]

If they'd (for once) test something before release, this mess would not have happened..

[hoary estuary]

there is test and test also

[tropic crown]

Only thing working at this point is their sever that supports paid content. How can a company that charges stupidly insane prices be so bad? How do you launch a new arc with so many issues on a holiday? Not that Scopley gives a damn, if they did this would stop happening.

[fallen spear]

There's no more justification for this continous mess after pretty much every update 🤷🏻‍♂️

[viral stratus]

You nailed it. Literally every update is janky. They can’t fix the problems they still have, yet they keep pushing these new missions/events etc without testing them for some reason.

[neon aspen]

I was experiencing constant disconnects and error codes. I ran the repair on the PC and it seems to have stabilized. I am not even going to bother trying it on my Tablet. I am going to throw up my shields an walk away for a few days. These bugs and glitches are becoming the norm these days and the compensation has been like someone throwing garbage at you and spitting in your face. If you hope to see your customers stay you better get on the ball People are really angry! Your QA department should be ashamed if you have one. Please fix your game.

[tropic crown]

They don’t care.

[nova sierra]

They have no real QA team, and the devs write buggy code. 😦

Remove all forbidden tech. It causes lock ups, disconnects, and other massive problems. @obsidian robin @neon aspen

[native adder]

You can check the timer on yours here

[tropic crown]

How many bugs can you guys add in one update?

[viral stratus]

All the bugs apparently.

[sullen matrix]

So, if the Q targets are Hostiles, taken from somewhere in the game, and so far all i have seen are lvl 1, does it mean that regular hostile crews work on them?

[nova sierra]

It's all caused by the new forbidden tech. Remove it from all ships to fix all that. It causes issues in the servers which causes the disconnects, and it causes huge client side issues.

[solar trail]

Here's some general feedback for ya Scopely...

YOUR GAME SUCKS!!

FIX IT!

[tepid bramble]

And the “check your connections” is absolutely bs. Every time it is on SCOPY’s side. Not mine. Their hardware is pathetic and they don’t care to fix the issue. Just pass the blame onto the customer. This company has to be one of the most ignorant to player satisfaction I have ever played. 🙄

[tropic crown]

How about this scopley stops putting out trash?

[quiet tendon]

I am sure this has been said already however we cannot do the Q dailies as I have done the 3 different tree's as far as I can go.... you put in ships that are to hard for me to kill at Ops 26... would be nice if that could be fixed as well as the ability to do the Q dailes every day.

[nova sierra]

Believe you can re-do them.

[worn silo]

Can't play if scopely can't keep connected. Haveing same problem with both android and windows.

[nova sierra]

Remove all forbidden tech on all ships to fix that. The mining one causes the most issues though.

[quiet tendon]

It does not allow you to redo them until you have completed the tree. I currently have a kill mission for a 1.4m swarm ship. My best ship is the mayflower at 645k that will not work. All 3 trees the ships are now to hard to kill so I cannot complete the trees. This does not appear to have been thought out well for lower ops levels. .

[tropic crown]

Love to but since game keeps bugging, crashing I cant.

[surreal lake]

The bugs in this game is ridiculous, the game restarts every two minutes and freezes every time I try to recrew my ships… what’s the deal

[torpid kelp]

try the following: go to your picture on the top left/settings/general/localization and then delete

[little elk]

My q is having a seizure

[spiral rose]

my game restarts every few minutes whats the deal here

[swift steppe]

My hostile popped up in a lucrative system?? You have GOT to be kidding me!!!

[quick cove]

Why does scopely bites more than it can chew?

[tropic crown]

The answer you’re going to get is its your fault move your base.

[steep solar]

This was warned about since launch of the arc.. and mostly because scopley logic wasn't programmed for.. "If Token OR LockedPath Then Redirect else Ok."

[fallen spear]

All the bugs + 1 extra, just to make sure! 😉

[urban elm]

I'll add another, launched a solo armada and couldn't join with my ships

[fallen spear]

@tacit obsidian @royal solar The lack of communication/official announcements ever since 18 hours is supposed to show, how much you 'value' your players, right? For some unapparent reason I remember a line that said something like 'we can do better..' (from not so long ago) or something similar 🤔

[gleaming nebula]

Why? It’s probably just your wifi

[swift steppe]

TWICE IN A ROW!!!!!!

[desert sigil]

imagine, almost 24h since the update and still no bug is fixed, still getting kicked every minute, can't mine nor really play without massive lags

[twilit grove]

Nah the only thing scopley values

[nova sierra]

Remove the forbidden tech or try one of the two workarounds: #🌌-galaxy-chat message

[vale wasp]

The game selects a system 2 spots a way from your station to spawn the Q target. It's best if you moved your base to a better location.

[pulsar dagger]

Yeah, had to remove the forbidden tech off my miner then game worked normal again

[sullen matrix]

just to be sure, do you feel entitled to complete all 3 trees at that level? Wheres the challenge in that? Should you be able to complete the other unlockable trials aswell?
Maybe use your head a little and think ahead. If you want to be able to complete the daily the next day, dont spend it all.

[pearl cedar]

Scopely fix the game and give me my "sorry we screwed up chest"

[swift steppe]

I really REALLY dislike having to abandon the location I've preferred since I started mining 3*!!😡 💩 💩 💩

[twilit grove]

A sorry chest with origins burnham shards?

[fallen spear]

Keenser or Mitchell shards 😉

[pearl cedar]

I completed all 3 trees yesterday and today still did my dailies. You can do trials after maxing

[twilit grove]

Nah those are worth more. Keenser flips in to Patterns. It would give me an "unfair" advantage 😒 same with Mitchell... that's scopley logic

[sullen matrix]

yes, but not everyone is able to do that. There is an effectivity bonus in Milestone Points, depending on your ops level, you can gain more Points per kill than others.
After doing my Trials, i had 185 Points left, others werent even able to complete the second trial

[desert sigil]

yeah, because the intention of the update was to not use it, right?

[fallen spear]

It's apparently a 'world class team' 😂

[tough orbit]

Anyone has problems with meridian? Upgrade? Change?

[tropic crown]

So people are saying remove forbidden tech switch out officers below deck can’t do that if I can’t even get anything to work, see picture for example.

[lilac pond]

Games lasting about 15 seconds for me before the game logs me out. No time to do anything. Massive cluster from Scopley as per

[kind star]

So it's getting worse instead of better! Scopely, does it remain that the server provider is to blame? Or could it have something to do with your lack of quality assurance? Just a spontaneous thought! I don't even know how I come up with it.

[glass monolith]

These Q challenges should spawn in the system your base is in. No one should have to recall all ships and move their base every time they need to do a daily! Yall got these things spawning in borg token systems, hostile alliances territorys, all kinds of crazy.

[nova sierra]

Indeed, station system would solve a chunk of issues.

[quiet tendon]

Well if you think about it... at 5 dailes per day.. I can only do 6 per tier before I cannot do them any more... that would have me not being able to do the dailies at day 4

[pearl cedar]

Dry docking my 2 best ships that had tech equipped worked whoever suggested it thanks. Guess I'll grind scrap ships til they fix it

[glass monolith]

Unequip the new tech from all your ships

[desert sigil]

Remove everything that's forbidden tech 🤡

[quiet tendon]

We have alliance members that are ops 39 that can complete each tier and therefore be able to do the dailies as you can repeat missions once you complete the tier...so each ops level should have the ships geared so that everyone can complete the tiers and therefore do the dailies every day.

[clever orbit]

better dust off that picard compensation chest scopely

[nova sierra]

S29 needs a lobotomy. I keep getting booted off during PvE. PC.

Every time I hit with forbidden tech, I get an update and then it tells me I have no internet connection.

So I get screwed out of the event? Is THAT it? Remove forbidden tech?

Malarkey

[cosmic knoll]

@swift steppe were you told that the Q targets spawn within 2 systems of your station? moving your base away from token systems advised

[glass monolith]

Or that comp chest from nov/December? That was a nice one with the free daily chests for a month

[nova sierra]

Just offering a way so you can play the game

@tropic crown you may need to do a workaround before you can remove the tech. #🌌-galaxy-chat message

lots of issues right now with the game !

[nova sierra]

There are workarounds pinned in #🌌-galaxy-chat and #👾-bug-reporting, and worst case option is to dock the offending ships with tech on or remove it (admittedly using currency)

[tropic sinew]

Scopley released untested broken junk? No WAY, that's never happened!

[tropic crown]

Work arounds don’t work the game keep locking up when I try to do them! Comp chest needs to be massive!

[peak ferry]

Whatever Scopely started pushing in the background has completely screwed my game up. It crashes every 30 seconds and my crews and ships are no longer accessible….. this all started at 10pm last night……….

[nova sierra]

You can do it, but you have to do it as soon as the game loads and on a ship that doesn't have the tech on it already. And you can't go to the officer or ship upgrade screen (it will lock up the game if you do). You must go right into the FT upgrade screen.

[tropic crown]

So I am imagining this? This happened on a ship that has no new tech on it!

[nova sierra]

It can, but from the screenshot you showed me, if you got that screen, you didn't follow the workaround properly.

If you go to the officer change screen or the ship upgrade screen, you'll get a weird image, and it will lock up. You have to click the red lock icon on a ship without the tech, click an artifact, click upgrade, and then totally back out. Then you should be able to remove all the tech from any ship or even play normally.

[blissful bluff]

Anyone having a problem with the game? I had to restart the game 10 times in the last five minutes and now I can't mine again because when I click on the asteroid the wheel just spins and nothing, tried after every restart. It doesn't work for me on Android or PC. I have the latest versions of the apps, I'm on server 180 , I have 100 Mbs and the other apps work without problems.

[stiff sorrel]

Remove forbidden tech from your miner, and you can mine again

[tropic crown]

This is the latest F up this ship has Zero new tech @tacit obsidian when is something going to be done? How can we do new events when we can’t even play the damn game. Screw work arounds, fix the game.

[blissful bluff]

really? What's the point then?

[spring gulch]

I %100 agree. Fix the game.

[nova sierra]

It could possibly take the devs a few days to a week to find the cause/bug and fix it... epsecially with the USA holiday this week.

So you may have to find a way to use one of the workarounds.

[fallen spear]

Will the shop be on a holiday as well in the meantime? 😉

[vagrant fjord]

So scopley, as a player who's bought many packs in the game, how do you think it's appropriate to keep the game going with issue after issue after these new releases occur? These constant disconnects, the inability to use basic functions on ships with forbidden tech attached, such as mine, repair, warp, change officers, and upgrade are all issues we're getting since update. @tacit obsidian This needs to stop and you guys need to dish out some serious compensation for the whole player base for this complete failure and inconvenience you guys have caused.

[tropic crown]

Not if it wont let you remove the damn tech. Also maybe scopley shouldnt have done a massive update on a holiday!

[dense kayak]

I'm getting kicked out of the game basically every minute, I can't do anything!

I stay in South Africa

[cosmic knoll]

remove your forbidden tech from ship -edit: GIVE COMP CHEST WITH RODS TO REMOVE FT TO MAKE GAME WORK

[heady knoll]

need those rods first to do that xd

[nova sierra]

It can be removed. You just don't want to listen on how to do it properly. Your screenshots show you aren't following the workarounds properly.

Again, Scopely needs to fix this ASAP, but it can take a programmer several days to find the bug, and then to fix it. And without a QA team, it makes it even harder for them to find the cause of the bug.

Ahh well I see your reactions.. done trying to help you.. enjoy the game not working for you then. I wash my hands trying to help you.

[dense kayak]

Remove, ha,
I can't even get to the page to do it, what now, #fixthegame <@&509690795536941056>

[rotund yew]

When will scope actually come out and admit they have issues again and yet again they didnt test these updates before sending them live. Its time they sacked the devs because its becoming a joke now. We get messages from Bek etc when we dont need them when we do nothing

[tropic crown]

What don’t you get about nothing is working? If the could even get to the Fing work around I would do it. I am lukcy if the game doesn’t crash ever 30 seconds. I happy the work around is working for you but that doesn’t mean it is for everyone.

[heady knoll]

so the lag went down from 9 minutes down to some 3o sec , officers still a hit or miss to apply ,workaround you can push officers on other ships ,but your stuck with a ship on dock without any crew xd, restart couple times might be able to put new crew on ,that is if you being held ingame long eneugh to open the menu if able to login at all . guess that pretty much sums up today ,lets see at reset what flavor of lag we get then

[stiff sorrel]

You can remove the tech if you follow what others have said to do, I had no issues myself redocking. Not sure what your issues are. Hopefully you can sort it out.

[cosmic knoll]

as soon as your ship dies, you start research or a building, the crashes resume .. the workaround is tempory, removal is perm.

[pallid jackal]

lets all be upset because a player doesn't do a workaround invented by the community for a very annoying bug, instead of jousting Scopely for making another cash grabbing horrible update that sends a torpedo into every player's warp core if you know what I mean

[nova sierra]

Not upset at all, but they clearly aren't listening or following directions. so I'm not going to help them anymore. It's nothing about being upset or angry, but I'm not gonna waste my time and energy if someone isn't going to listen and follow directions

And should we have to do a workaround? No we shouldn't have to, but it might take the programmers several days to put out a fix. So the choices are: either do a workaround or basically don't play.

[heady knoll]

for pc repairing it fixed most of the issues

[rotund yew]

hmmm work around not needed. Issue only occurs when im mining with the new thing on it

[tropic crown]

Well after 565 tries the game finally let me remove the tech, lets see if that does anything. Work arounds are great (when you can get them to work) but launching a buggy product around a holiday is unacceptable. Radio silence from the company is not helping, maybe another reason not to do it around a holiday!

[spring gulch]

What about all the people with out discord. How are they working around this disconnection glitch?

[nova sierra]

Just FYI. My comments were not directed towards you 🙂 but yeah if you don't have the currency to unequip, that is problematic. However, you can click the new slot, on a ship without the tech, click the tech upgrade upgrade button, and go into the upgrade screen on a ship without the tech equipped, and come back out, and the bugs should go away for the rest of that play session.

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/529710401814790155/1126150594139279451/RPReplay_Final1688565417.mov

[tropic sinew]

GAME IS UNPLAYABLE AND KEEPS CRASHING , FIX IT

[desert plank]

Watch out, you will get banned for screaming 😂

[steel gull]

@tacit obsidian hey what about a Statement recording to the current issues????????

[grave quest]

the Q item upgrade mechanic is horrible. if i am spending an in game currency, failure should not be an option! #JoylessCashGrab

[kind vale]

I may not be a math genius but giving a daily drip of 80 bells and setting the daily at spending 125 doesn’t math out. <@&509690795536941056>

[robust knoll]

Please move bells out of the building slot and into ships. They do not function like building materials, since they have a cap like ship materials

[pure nebula]

This is a horrible update. Bad enough that Scopely needs to review it's qc policies. Time to hire a couple pros instead of reading DBs for dummies

[tropic sinew]

We have been asking Scopley to actually test crap, before releasing broken crap...for literally years. They don't care..

[random folio]

It's the same mechanic as the mantis sting juice. You can do the 3-pull every day, or you can wait two days and do both dailies.

[oblique hawk]

I think we’re all looking for a huge compensation chest as this forbidden tech was a huge fail

[grave quest]

and now i can’t even swap crews! 😂😂😂😂😂 someone needs to be fired and i think a few managers too.

[kind vale]

At least with the Mantis that is a second tier. For this it is the only daily option.

[ripe hearth]

I took the miner with the Q upgrade out of the field, and switched another ship at dock. My internet connection got stable really fast and the restarts stopped. 🤣

[coarse nova]

this is getting old...every 30 seconds getting a lost connection

[random folio]

No there is a start 3 trials daily too. So you can do the 3-trials daily every day, or the 5 trials (which will finish the 3 trials as well) every other day.

[pure nebula]

This not a kids game, I'm a day 0 player and seen a lot of improvements in the development releases.
That said, time to hire pros. The DB implantations are horrible, ie DBsfor dummies. The test environment is either unimaginative or non existent and in the modern world of VMs, we should have zero downtime for monthly arc updates.
Amazon doesn't go down for updates often. This game is so much smaller

[kind vale]

A good, another bug because I don't have that daily. 😭

[grave quest]

and why is it i cant repair a ship with “free” or even “speed up”? and fyi: “instant” just throws a ship error.

[elfin coyote]

Relaxed arc for me, didn't make the BP points on day one because of lag, timeouts and disconnects, so don't care about the rest.

[robust knoll]

Think Mantis on those

[obsidian oasis]

Default Error 2🥴 just wondering what happened to Error 3 and 4😏

[marble yacht]

Only have Nr 5

[pure nebula]

Can't scan starbases either

[waxen tinsel]

I have seen 2 truly borked updates since I started playing a year ago, and the main thing they have on common is being pushed out on a holiday weekend.

[blissful wagon]

They go on holydays at bahamas with our money

[grim oriole]

So where is this new Prime at?

[random folio]

In your second screen shot, it clearly shows the 3-trial daily. Q's Challenge

[fallen epoch]

You aren’t supposed to achieve the top daily every day. Same as mantis daily’s or Titan A daily’s

[compact cliff]

same

[agile slate]

Lag and stability issues....just another day at scopley

[little prawn]

getting disconnected every minutes, android client and mac client. what's the issue?

[tropic sinew]

Games been broken for a day , and not even an announcement recognizing it...

[vivid quarry]

Unequip all Future Tech from ships seems to make the game possible

[tropic crown]

Can you redo Q mission for daily?

[old seal]

Aaaaaaand getting kicked again... cannot for for this edition of a work around solution 👍

[little prawn]

i don't understand how people can pay for such a buggy game!

[heady knoll]

thats easy paying is the only part of it that does work xd

[tropic crown]

@tacit obsidian since Forbidden Tech is broke and effects scoring in events what are you guys going to do? More radio silence?

[tropic sinew]

Yea, good point. Paying for a pack in game is NEVER broken..... Also, how come every time Scopley releases new(untested) content, it's broken...but it's NEVER broken in our favor, it's always broken and hoses us... The next time Scopley releases new stuff and it's broken(it will be..guaranteed), can we please at least have it broken in a way that gives us an advantage? lol

[ember cosmos]

Fix the lag!

[dense kayak]

Game finally not crashing every 2 min, removed all FT from all my ships when I got a good log in, now everything is more stable, but lag still a problem

[kind vale]

Its gone now and I haven't done trials. It's fine, not doing this arc till it stops crashing the game anyway.

[hollow iris]

I think with the number of issues going on currently, the best course of action might be say adios, uninstall and profit. This is ridiculous.

[kind vale]

Then here is a suggestion, stop releasing "dailies" that aren't intended to be completed daily. 🤣

[nova sierra]

Hmmm, I wonder what's causing some of the excess server load

[frozen niche]

@north perch @crisp dome @torn saffron @twilit mango @uncut spear Guys, your game is absolutely broken for me today. I click one button and it drops connection. It's unplayable. I spent $20 this morning on the battle pass. I guess that's going to be a waste. I can't even send helps for the battle pass event. I've put in a ticket, but tickets pertaining to lag or connection issues are seldom resolved. It's very frustrating.

[warm zinc]

Why would you buy the battle pass knowing there’s issues ?? Why would they sort it when people are still paying I mean would you but a car that stalled every 2 mins

[elfin coyote]

What happened to announcements btw? Can't see the channel anymore

[fallen epoch]

#⭐-official-announcements

[nova sierra]

Please fix the mining nodes for Voyager. Make them static so they just refresh when they are empty and for the love of Gowron spawn more nodes, We definitely need more rare nodes and normal ones . They are so few and when more people get the Voyager it will become and absolute mess. @fallen epoch

[frozen niche]

I always buy the battle pass. I didn't get it yesterday because I had Fourth stuff going on. I bought it first thing today before I noticed that the game didn't work. Had I known, I would have reconsidered.

[grave quest]

with so many problems and such bad lag, broken features, pay-for-items that are broken…. this better be a mega compensation chest the likes of which we have never seen! I cannot even send help for the bp event! Time for an app review on apple store i think.

[steel gull]

@fallen epoch this was yesterday!! Do yo wann say that installing needs 24hours???? Or longer? When are we able to play the game. Events cant be done? What about Player that cant end the battlepass because of that issues?

[fallen epoch]

I don’t follow the context

[fallen epoch]

What do you mean?

[ornate forge]

Second day game not working right and no chest? Shame I hoped so for my 10 grey officer’s shards

[lucid pelican]

its the new content lol
Unequip the ship with the FT

[woeful nymph]

Just had an alliance member have a Q trial spawn in Assimilated Ferengi Trader Token space. Really Scopely? You didn’t put token systems on a bypass list? He already submitted a ticket

[tropic crown]

https://tenor.com/view/scopely-scopely-content-scopely-not-this-day-a-day-may-come-gif-18702278

[fallen epoch]

He needs to move his station

Reduce your caps please

[lucid pelican]

While yes that is the solution for now however with a mechanic like spawning a hostile around a base location it should take into account a few things first.
Can they reach this system?
Is it a token system?
I know that isn't your fault or issue but try to be more helpful with people, thats your job as a community mod. You take the hits and direct people to correct information. Perhaps take a break if you can't handle calling the wahbulance every five minutes. lol

[fallen epoch]

Unfortunately no. It’s part of the intended design. The hostile will spawn within 2 systems of your base. Including token spaces or superhighways

[tropic crown]

Or Scoopley can program better? Just an idea.

[lucid pelican]

Thats rough if it was intended to add and extra cost to the players without a warning. I would be okay if it told you that it will spawn it in any system. I was in Territory and had to traverse through others space lol. I didn't have an extra cost but I did catch on quick that it spawns relative to your base location. It does seem off for most players since its been two days of people crying about a new mechanic that was introduced as they hit it with rocks trying to figure it out. lol

[steel gull]

And this is your answer to questions of the community? Poor
Does scopely not realize that this arc is the worst ever published on this game? NO ONE is able to play the game right now.
And as a community member and player, who is also spending money in this game, i want to know, like all other players here, when does scope fix the Problems. So we want an official anouncement about whats going on!

[fallen epoch]

At this stage, I haven’t had much information from yourself about what you meant. Just a bunch of text in caps which I asked you to reduce which you haven’t which has now been moderated. I’m not here to brush you off. I would like to help within my limits but I need information. Have a nice day 🖖

[nova sierra]

Are current lag issues related to the Redis upgrades still? Or is there another root cause being investigated?

[fallen spear]

Now it might be because of Amazon again 😂

[steel gull]

Strange, Informations? Do you read what the community writes?
Let me help you:

• network Problems (told by all members here) every 2 Minuten loosing connection - and dont tell me that my network is the reason!
• hundrets of Bugs with the New forbiden twchnology (also told here by everyone)
  By the way, everyone here knows what i mean but only you dont!
  And now instead of answering, you begann to delete massages.
  Great Job!

[lyric willow]

I'm sure it's been brought up 1000 times by now but what's going on with the Forbidden Technologies? Multiple of my alliance mates have warned me away from equiping any to a ship as it breaks crew selection/assignment on that ship. Is there a workaround that isn't "well use another ship"? Is the dev team aware? Is it being looked into?

[heady knoll]

quick fix for pretty much all issues we had the last 2 days ,remove ships with the tech enabled on them from docks ,issues instantly stopped for me and has been stable for and hour already ....... i even have one ship active again with the new tech anableed on another dock without any issues - not sure how long it will last but it seems like the bug way back when you had one dock not able to attack /loot a base with

[little prawn]

censorship is how those with power can continue to have power!

[nova sierra]

last arc and mini-arc had more BP points than you needed, in case you missed a day (or bad maths?). May be able to work out if you can still get your broken desealing rods?

[tough orbit]

@tacit obsidian I can no longer get into the app!!!! Scopely, finally fix your bugs and make the game playable again!!!!

[steel gull]

Removing is not the solution for everything. What about events where the technology is needed.

[exotic wave]

and once again our official community managers @tacit obsidian and @royal solar missing in action

[heady knoll]

i swapped my kelvin tech enabled out of dock first ,game became stable ,then after an hour tried putting it on another dock ,and knock wood been running it now for 3o minutes stable again

[granite flint]

Game gets severely nerfed after every update to squeeze ad much money as possible from chumps.

[steel gull]

Dont expect them to come online during the Problems. Like @fallen epoch will they stay offline, because they are not able to make they work when there are massiv Problems with this game.

[fossil bolt]

The audacity that Scopely has is mind-blowing. No nothing while delivering absolute trash as a release. If the Saudis would know how Scopely is throwing away their money......🤣🤣🤣

[turbid widget]

Lol going into a defense and I can’t crew my ships…

[solar solar]

Head in sand by Scopely and moderators running round like headless chickens trying to cover up and smooth over the cracks.

[potent wave]

Community Managers can't do anything except maybe pass along bugs and complaints. Stop hating on them. They have bosses who tie their hands too.

[little prawn]

let's start a strike: do not spend any money for the next arcs until they fix the entire game

[heady knoll]

i swapped my kelvin tech enabled out of dock first ,game became stable ,then after an hour tried putting it on another dock ,and knock wood been running it now for 3o minutes stable again

[mild fulcrum]

Neither is being rude to volunteers(!) who spend countless hours helping the community with at times barely more info or communication lines than yourself (Independence Day celebrations?). Oh! And don’t forget, they’re also human.

[tepid bramble]

They wouldn’t care. 🙄. As long as foolish people are parting with their money, they will continue to fleece them. As soon as that well dries up, they WILL shut down shop and move on. Savy buying this game did nothing but ensure the game will A) push new crap to get as much money from folks as possible in as short a time as possible B) have a sudden and unannounced end when folks get “savy” to what is going on. Ie it was a death kneel for the game, not a breath of life.

[exotic wave]

however they are supposed to liaise with community and act as a conduit - silence to their community isnt a good look for someone with community manager in their job desc

[steel gull]

I think it is not a real problem to ask their boses about what is going on with this game and put an answer to the community.
If they are not able to ask and Show the Massage here to their boses, they should be fired!

[fallen epoch]

Problem?

[zealous arrow]

Dear Scopely,

You have managed to make the Ford Pinto of video games. Congratulations on your horrendous quality control. It takes real skill to be so, so terrible.

Sincerely,
The STFC player base

[woeful nymph]

The sad thing is that the content Creators provided the Q Trial spawning in a token system feedback prior to launch, and Scopely decided to not do anything to change it

[fallen epoch]

So nothing new? No need to be snarky when we ask for clarification. Next time you are asked to comply with server rules just follow it.

[mild fulcrum]

Here’s me thinking a little comprehensive reading wouldn’t be a “real problem” but apparently it is. What don’t you understand about the word volunteers?

[tepid bramble]

THAT is what we call in the biz a clue. Or a red flag 🚩. Seems to me that more than anything should tell folks EXACTLY what scopy thinks of their player base. We are “marks”. Not customers. Some get taken more than others 🤷‍♂️

[civic parcel]

Game crashes every minute on iPhone starting at noon reset

[severe crater]

You have made this game so difficult that the only way to get anywhere is to spend lots and lots of money. For that reason I am going to quit. Thank you.

[heady knoll]

if you get ingame swap the tech enabled ships on your dock for another ship ,fixed it for me

[hexed pelican]

Territory systems should be excluded from trail system. This is already costing me a fortune in repairs from getting shot by them blocking their territories...

[steel gull]

So let me try once more:
What about Networks Problems (disconnecting every 2 Minuten from game) that everyone has since 24 hours? Do you need a Screenshot?
What about the crew-setup Bug (posted above)?
When does scope put an official announcement why the game is not playable?
Hope this is understandable

[fallen epoch]

There is workarounds pinned in #👾-bug-reporting for those 2 problems.

Still waiting on someone that can do comms for an official announcement

[woeful nymph]

One of the most depressing situations is that our CM's seem to have to get permission to sneeze, let alone post something about being aware of and working on known issues. It is very unfortunate and a bad look for Scopely

[nova sierra]

I've not engaged with Forbidden Tech and my game is running smoothly 🤣

[weak grove]

Repair those stupid forbidden tech bugs for heavens sake, please. can't really be true

[acoustic cloud]

@tacit obsidian @royal solar

The game is unplayable without these workarounds, I've got half my alliance struggling to even get into the game
For the first time in a while I'm going to put up a long shield and say see yah later.

[lyric pagoda]

Can't play at all solo amarda is impossible when I keep getting kicked out this is crazy

[fleet orbit]

And so on.

[hollow laurel]

EU118 also unplayable! Disconnect and reset to Base Station every 30s. How can one do dailies and events? PLEASE GO TO MAINTENANCE shift events until the Game ist working!

[dire yew]

My general feedback to y'all is open a dispute with scopely and start a chargeback through paypal/credit card if you can for purchases. This is atrocious.

[grave quest]

scopely silence is deafening.

[agile lynx]

Can the comp chest include parts to upgrade the court of Q. Since the refinery for those is missing for some people (including me)

[fallen spear]

@tacit obsidian 'some crashes on iOS'? EXCUSE ME? The whole game is messed up, across all platforms! So what are you talking about? 😡

[open schooner]

I'm on android and its crashing every 40 secs

[radiant vine]

@tacit obsidian that is a totally tone deaf statement for "the game has been literally unplayable for going on 36 hours now."

[marble yacht]

Already looking forward to my 2-rare-officer-shards-comp-chest 😂

[dapper quest]

Game is unplayable. Suks

[gaunt river]

Utterly bizarre lack of acknowledgment of the ongoing server issues in EU

[rich pendant]

I agree, but no need to 'skip' the arc. Just re-run old events, let people catch up. Another major complaint is that things are released then forgotten becoming just another daily grind with more and more stuff that never 'finishes'. Let that be an opportunity for these things to get fresh air again.

[stray barn]

Please stop releasing new features for a few months and focus on bug fixes! This game is almost completely unplayable now!!

[hollow laurel]

...the best way to give a general-feedback would possibly be stop spending money in overpriced ingame items. 😉

[jovial edge]

No more money until what I’ve paid for in the past works consistently @royal solar @tacit obsidian

[vocal widget]

@tacit obsidian I do public relations for a living, what you posted in the announcement was off target by a mile. You have a discord server about ready to riot. This bug is on the same level as the treasury bug. Seriously, the team at Scopely needs to do some self reflection here. Not only is the quality of your product subpar, but your messaging is not professional nor helpful.

[teal yew]

the new features are making my head spin, please STOP! and fix the bugs, i have to reload the game more than 20 x a day, zoom breaks, do a ship upgrade game crashes, change crew game crashes, collect a reward game crashes, use new features game crashes....

[pallid jackal]

Everything lagging again, can’t even repair ships

[hollow laurel]

...dismount all forbidden tec and restart the game. ...and hope scopely will compensate enough items therefore. 😉

[real talon]

I'm really asking, is ANYTHING being done about these disconnects it's wold now.

[static wagon]

Works as intended

[ancient ibex]

any hotfix plans for the forbidden tech? that 💩 is barely playable, as reported by so so many people here

[blissful wagon]

Waiting my compensation chest with 1 parsteel and 3 units of dilithium 🤣

[tropic sinew]

Comment of the day from #🌌-galaxy-chat

[manic talon]

Give us your money and we will break the game for only 99.99 US. Seen a lot of players leave the game today

[idle herald]

its almost playable. if you can get a command in before the game crashes. or command a attack, and then notice the ship is back in drydock, but then back attacking the hostile, but then back at drydock. THEN back to attacking the hostile, but then now entering the system from warp.

[grave quest]

@tacit obsidian unless there will be a fix for the forbidden tech in the next hours it needs to be deactivated. The work around is deactivating the FT, but there is cost associated to that. Some of us could barely afford to put the tech onto our ships not to mention taking it off. this needs to be done NOW if it a fix is not coming quickly. the game is not playable at all and. can’t even be open longer than 30 seconds.

[manic talon]

Now can't log in way to go

Get rid of Amazon server's and open your own you'll save money and make the players happy

[last nest]

wrong its not amazons fault

[hollow laurel]

...this is not a bug! it is a feature! If you install forbidden tech, you have to deal with some unexpected system response. 😛

[radiant vine]

You think Scopley can run better servers than AWS? You're dreaming.

[manic talon]

That was who they blame

[cyan portal]

"Some crashes on iOS" Sure Jan.....

[last nest]

They always blame everyone but themselves, its their issue every-time, why are you trusting them after the 9th time they claim an issue lol

[cosmic blaze]

no loot

[manic talon]

Do you write code or work in IT ? It is not easy and never said it wasn't their fault it could have been caught with proper QA

[fallen epoch]

You hit 2k kill limit

[golden spade]

we have a lot of people frustrated with the QC on this update. if they can't play the game, why are they going to keep trying??

[last nest]

Yes actually, this is so obviously Scopelys Fault, its practically there in your face, 🤣

[pallid jackal]

Can devs do something ?! The lag is horrible on 167

[radiant vine]

AWS have very occassional issues but their uptime is amazing (at least 99.999%). Corporate clients using AWS have a lot of money invested in it. The Scopely that's built this mess wouldn't even be in the 50% uptime.

[plush token]

Getting disconnects every minute or so. Game is certainly not playable at the moment.

[elder pollen]

@tacit obsidian BTW the crashes are not just on iOS. I'm experiencing the same crashes on the Mac OS desktop version too.

[pallid jackal]

Blaming AWS shows the lack of professionalism at Scopely

[last nest]

Most of these companies nowadays focused on addiction/Micro transactions are like this tbf

[subtle lichen]

Yep, it seems it’s on us to make sure that ALL systems within ~2 minutes of our station when we start the trial are: unlocked, non-token, and not in a hostile alliance’s territory… I’ve seen reports of alliances just waiting for players doing trials in their territory (shout out to epic on 89 for understanding 😘), plenty of players who had it spawn in various token spaces, oh and the best are the ones that spawn in level locked systems…

[fast jungle]

Thank you, Scopely, for always starting Web Store events AFTER I've bought a pack, in particular the Battle Pass unlock.

[cyan portal]

Desktop and android too...its a damn joke

[cerulean quest]

Time for people to stop spending money , maybe only then scopely wil fix the stuff before launching new broken content!!! , but … both wil never happen so it’s a loop

[manic talon]

That all was meant as a joke do to the issue AWS did have with a few of their client severs but they do have a good team and identified the issue quickly

[nova sierra]

strange there even would be a limit in this game, where you have to kill hostiles...

[somber pond]

The game is unplayable at the moment on ISO, It was just logging me out

[vocal widget]

It was done because some players have possibly used bots to hunt hostiles for rep.

[kind minnow]

hotfix the working parts of the forbidden part tech. only leave the cosmetics. the playerbase wont even notice except for the troubles dissapearing.

[whole mica]

Either at Scopely you see yourself as part of a community, that of online video game players, and in that case you should have and show far more respect for your player base; either you see the players as customers (an assertion that would seem more accurate given the prices charged and the sums spent by many) and in that case too, you should show far more respect and consideration to all of us, as any serious company would do.

But the big problem is that you ain't doing neither!

I think that in any other area of competence, other than this one, the often borderline attitude of your business practices (packs that don't offer what they're sold for and/or incorrect descriptions, weird math) and the casual way in which you handle relevant complaints would land you squarely in court. And that would be well deserved.

It's already happened with class actions in the USA, hasn't it?

A little more seriousness and respect for your "customers" please, it's high time and never too late...or almost.

[summer latch]

At least give us rods to unequip the FT. I thought I was equipping each ship and spend all the rods only to find out it is only 1 per ship. Now I have no way to get it of my main ship and it keeps causing the game to crash. Unplayable.

[rich pendant]

@dawn nexus regarding the game announcement: if you acknowledge there is an issue with that, why not simply remove the cost for un-equiping the FT 0 until you actually fix it? It's ridiculous that you put no sense of urgency when the game is literally unplayable for so many people. What if people simply don't have them? You're expecting them to pay for a pack to get the freaking rods because of your mistake?
This is disrespectful at least.

[last nest]

there shouldnt even be a cost to take it off to begin with they are just money greedy

[dawn nexus]

If I could I would, unfortunately mods are only volunteers - the announcement was to have a central bit of info on the issues that keep coming up

[tepid bramble]

We are “marks”. Neither customer nor community to them. You don’t respect a marks time or money, and only count on their gullible nature. Once the mark gets wise to the scam, you tend to make yourself scarce for fear of reprisals.

[grave quest]

player: * pays to get FTs *
game: * becomes unplayably unstable*
mods (trying to be helpful): “use in game currency to unequip FTs”
player: * having to spend money to get more currency to unequip and be able to use ships again* “hey, isn’t that randsomware?”

[fallen epoch]

Sounds about right but our first workarounds are free so you don’t need to use rods

[pallid jackal]

I dont envy the mods here at all - this whole arc is one flying poo poo fest. This Arc is beyond saving already - just bring it all down, fix the issues and reset the event. If not we will keep running into issues well into 2024 😄

[rich pendant]

Sorry, got you confused for a CM. Lemme fix that:
@tacit obsidian @royal solar #💬-general-feedback message

[torpid cargo]

Well your going to be upset, becuase the chest will contain 20 common recruit tokens and a link to the pay store....

[teal harness]

Wouldn’t it be nice if scopley actually tested releases.

[pallid jackal]

I also wonder what setup the QA team is running at. Either they're seriously understaffed/cut back/non-existent or Scopely hired an actual bunch of monkeys to slam on a keyboard to pass QA testing process before releasing this absolute horrific piece of "art" on our heads. It's a shame we cannot make a poll about this, as that would be more amusing to run than the actual game itself.

[elder pollen]

Is this true? #⚡-mod-announcements message
Can anyone speak first-hand that un-equipping and re-equipping a ship with FT clears up the crash bugs re that?

[fallen epoch]

All the workarounds are pinned in #👾-bug-reporting we have used workarounds that have been proven to work for a majority of players

[elder pollen]

Verified. I tried the trick described in #👾-bug-reporting message which is:
• Manage a ship that does NOT have FT installed
• Click on the FORBIDDEN TECH button
• Click on the UNLOCK button and then just close the popup (do not confirm the unlock)

After doing this, I opened up my ship with FT installed and was able to manage officers. Yay!

Hoping this holds at least for a while

[lunar forge]

Yes

[lapis spindle]

What we need are more official announcements reiterating the problem

[pale fox]

most "micro-transactions" aren't $100

[last nest]

True were in mega-macro these days

[remote flume]

Just another reminder that the player base doesn’t want new content. They want the bugs to be fixed. It’s not close.

[nova sierra]

Or G6 🤣

[pale fox]

or a cash spending cap so we aren't competing with wallet-warriors all the time and dealing with abusive behavior that scopely refuses to address in anything but the most milquetoast way.

[urban verge]

Has scopely done the math for the Emblem of Assessment for the Q building? At 44 ops I can pull roughly 100 Emblems every 5 days. With my building at level 13 it would take roughly 2 years to level it just to 25. Please reconsider how you set it up. Its a fun PVE feature but locking it down so heavily is going to turn people away from it. I don't mind spending money on it and have but I'm not going to drop 600$+ just to get it to 25 only. Its somehow worse then the command center to level. If you made things more reasonable people would have way less of a hard time dropping cash on things imo.

[wise bolt]

Soo why am i continuously getting discounted now after new patch....??

[uneven karma]

It worked for about 6 hours for me, game is now even worse, crashes as soon as I try to do anything. Managed to pop on a 3 day and bring ships home. This is just ridiculous.

[tropic crown]

What new patch?

@tacit obsidian maybe letting people know about new features more than just a few hours ahead of going live would be a good idea. Might cut down in confusion, cause less anger over people feeling like they have wasted resources. I know I wasted resources because I didn’t understand a new feature. Then maybe stop launching new features on a major holiday, your track record is not good enough not to have the full crew working.

[forest mauve]

Scopely… FIX. YOUR. 💩. Please and thank you!

[fleet orbit]

at the moment is the game unplayable, only a huge expensiv bug farm.

[rocky raptor]

im sure i am going to speak for many people playing this game at the minute. I've had to put a long shield on AGAIN so i can try to play with the new "features" again tomorrow. there are only so many times we can continue doing this before our patience completely runs out.
Game breaking bugs happen once in a while, we get that, but its EvErY siNgLE TiMe.

[tropic crown]

So nothing has changed yet.

[rocky raptor]

exactly this! a proven history of broken launches + next to no real communication (patch notes and a small video reading out said patch notes don't really count as an explanation) = green light to go on holiday

[versed silo]

Crazy to think they still have a player base at all, if people had not invested heavily I wonder how many of us would still be here, simply dreadful! And worse with each update

[tepid bramble]

If “I” had not, I would be gone by now. This game is totally running on sunking costs fallacy (either time OR money) by anyone over ops 39. There is no other explanation.

[versed silo]

It's the people in the alliance that keep me playing but I am genuinely questioning uninstalling and getting my social fix on Discord minus the game. I can't believe how it's gone down hill so quickly, we all joke about long outstanding issues but most were bearable but this is a new level which I'm not sure can be tolerated. Scopely seem to be tone deaf to the situation which is a real concern

[whole mica]

What usually happens when someone pays for a service (internet subscription, TV, electricity supply, etc.) and the service is interrupted or malfunctions for mid or longer period of time?

And that the customer's inability to enjoy the service for which he is paying is not attributable to him, since the responsibility for the malfunction or interruption lies with the service provider?

I think we all know the answer. By dint of being treated like marks, we come to reason in a very down-to-earth way. And consider more appropriate responses to the problems posed.

[versed silo]

We phone said supplier, actually get through to someone, usually get the issue resolved, money off, extra services thrown in for a period of time, customer care I think we can call it. Scopely have made it virtually impossible to even log a ticket. The cynic in me says deliberate. The whole show from them shows a contempt for their passing customers

I best have a Cider and relax👍😁

[nimble yarrow]

You need to stop coming up with new stuff that messes with the game! I would think a priority would be to fix server connection problems before adding new things that really screw with everyone’s game play!

[whole mica]

I agree with you from A to Z. These are truly shameful methods. On the one hand, it's unprofessional, and on the other, it's probably a deliberate calculation based solely on immediate profit.

I also agree with you that Scopely takes advantage of this form of loyalty to the friends we have known in the game, as well as of this feeling of entrapment, after having spent (and not invested, clearly) money in it.

[analog tartan]

this latest arc is full of bugs. it makes the game almost unplayable. functions don’t work, game is constantly restarting or requires a restart. This is unacceptable.

[versed silo]

They should bin off next arc and dedicate it to resolving the long standing platform stability issues, introduce new content when and only when players have confirmed the stability.

Id love to see the QA that is carried out pre release that gets approved being pushed into Prod environments.

We assume it's been thoroughly tested but I'm racking me brains to think of a content release with no issues .... I can't

[dense timber]

Tying ships to user control center level is BAD! It is weaker than ALL My Other Ships! Wasted an attack and lost one in Q's Trials due to this Weak Ship Tied to my Level.

[reef gorge]

Getting error not able to log in have reinstalled and restarted phone as well

[hardy fox]

I always thought this would be a good idea as well. Let the devs just work on things, QoL fixes, source us some indepedant credits, toss out some Realta battles and call it a day. Spenders are always going to spend, you don't need to bombard us with new content every month. Pull the curtains back and work on things that are already in the game like Starbases, which are still pretty useless unless there's an event coinciding with it.

[twilit grove]

Those packs need 3 more 9s on each of them

[dense timber]

The Talios is another Bad Design tied to user operation center level. My New Talios could only fill its cargo hold up to 25% of what my Vi'Dar can carry before it dies. Now fully leveled up for my level the Talios looks stronger. But only carries 75% of what the Vi'Dar can farm before it dies. And the Vi'Dar has hull left so that it could kill Many More borg probes with the cargo hold filled to the max.

[tropic crown]

They want it tied to ops to force you to level and more importantly to buy packs hopefully. I personally see level 35 as a possible place to quit, so many new grinds will pop up.

[teal brook]

Great job screwing up another arc rollout Scopely. Quality Assurance certainly is at the low end of the totem pole. Keep pushing those 99USD (price gouging) packs tho...

[nova sierra]

That won't be the case for long... pretty soon, you will farm millions per run

s84 reporting constant internet connection crashes across the board... it will stop for an hour then your game will crash 20 times in a hour. repair doesnt work. uninstall/reinstall didnt work. clearing localization isnt helping. game crashes whether you have chat open/docked. at least 6 or 7 drops in the last 20 minutes. game is not playable. really frustrating after spending money to play the Q trail content to be repeatedly kicked from the server, making it almost impossible to play. switched to mobile multiple times last night in between all the crashing. is scopely aware of S84 having these issues? (other servers experiencing same/any resolution). thank you.

[nova sierra]

Read the announcement. #⭐-official-announcements

It's ALL caused by the new tech people are equipping. Remove it, and/or use a workaround. I use a workaround so I can keep using it without crashes and disconnects.

workarounds: #🌌-galaxy-chat message

[celest narwhal]

Unequip forbidden tech,

[uneven karma]

So according to the latest announcement we are expected to do all these movements of ships and crew just so the game is playable and that's the compensation chest they are offering? At the bare minimum it should be the same as the treasury debacle chest was. They are so out of touch with their player base. This is just ridiculous.

[teal brook]

The amount of money they are scamming off people, you'd think they'd have a better QA department

[whole mica]

Nope, sorry but not all. The now long lasting instability of the platform under iOS along with the huge sum of crashes (crash logs by dozens every day) and glitches is everything but new. The Forbidden Tech is a massive fail also, but not only and neither the first.

[nova sierra]

Most ios issues I've seen (other than the forbidden tech) are people running it on devices with not a lot of RAM. I've played on 6 ios devices over the years.. and only had issues on devices with 2 or 4 GB of RAM. Once it's run on an ios device with 6GB or more ram, a lot of the issues I've seen go poof (except ones that happen on all platforms).

[dusty current]

It better be one heck of a compensation reward for a buggy as this update was.

[whole mica]

If from one hand I can agree that some of the issues would disappear on more recent and power equipped devices, the reasoning imho is wrong. It's not up to the people to buy a new device each time there is a game update.

Maybe because there was never any code optimisation? Perhaps because the charge on the ram is so totally excessive for a mobile game like STFC?
And so is the charge on the servers from AWS and Redis?

Layer after layer, adding on already added but never optimised. This is not the way, and imho you shouldn't defend this kind of way to manage things and people.

[still crane]

This'll be the compensation

[tulip ivy]

Hit Kill Cap again trying to do an event where each kill gives a point. I am doing the work, I should get the rewards ... otherwise it no longer worth playing this game. Taking the damage doing the event and getting NOTHING for it is BS. Cap should be dropped during events like FT Q Challenge

[nova sierra]

Not everytime a game update no, but it IS a player's responsibility to keep equipment up to date (be it a Mac/Linux/Win PC or a mobile device) as a game (and all games) evolve(s) and uses more resources over the years. Using a 4-6 year old device is problematic unfortunately, and it's not just for this game. A gamer always has to keep their devices up to date in a reasonable time frame.

Granted I'm not defending the devs. There's a LOT, and I mean a LOT of bugs and issues with the game that needs fixing.

[tulip ivy]

Well, maybe clearing out all the dead currencies and events will reduce game size ... currencies last used 4 years ago do nothing

[nova sierra]

I've done it before and hit that cap, but only after 8 hrs of solid grinding using 2 ships at once.

I would have to disagree. I think the 2K cap is MORE than reasonable. 99% of the players will never hit that 2K cap through manually grinding.

[still crane]

Maybe not manually but I kill 1k manually and the rest via auto in fed space

[whole mica]

From a purely technical standpoint, I can also agree with you. But then on an ethical level, there is so much to argue about the rest you'd have to start there before expecting anything else from player base (customers). And please allow me, if you go to the App Store, look at the list of supported devices and tell me if Scopely is counting it right. By the way, many of those issues are also happening on recent devices, I can tell for sure. Having said that, I didn't want to be arguing with you. Others here (Scopely) are the ones to blame. Peace.

[tulip ivy]

@nova sierra Then I would say to that, it is just fair for Scopely workers get paid for only 32 hours work after doing 40 hours. Same logic and fair for the psrt time workers. So the event is rigged and productive people hurt yet again, and larger Alliances get an almost guarranted win. Larger by only 5 members

[rocky raptor]

Black Desert Online STFC edition

[nova sierra]

Oh I agree, but part of the issue there is Apple. all Apple cares about is "can the game boot up" to mark i compatible

but ya I 10000000% agree with you. That list needs revising as the game will not run hardly at all on an iphone 6 heheh

oh ya.. not arguing... just saying it's a complicated issue 🙂

[burnt sable]

Do the compensation chests not go to everyone above lvl19 seeing as that's when you can do the Q stuff?

[analog tartan]

the comp chest is not enough.

[atomic imp]

This game has become untenable, remove all this new stuff and fix it from ground up

[still crane]

Don't give them any ideas 🤣

[hoary gate]

Not giving ideas. The only reason to introduce failure chance on an upgrade is because this is the plan already.

[cyan portal]

This comp chest is absolutely awful for the impact this had on game play, event completion, and LB impact.

[nova sierra]

Larger alliances will ALWAYS (almost always) win these events. that's been the case since the game started 4 years ago, and that will probably never change.

But I still think 2K is more than a reasonable limit as most people will not sit and grind 2K hostiles per day. The limit is there to stop bots also or bots would grind 20K a day (and ya there's TONS of Windows bots for the game people would use to cheat if that cap were lifted).

Lift that cap, and you'd never win a SLB kill event ever again. All the botters would beat you (and there's a lot of them out there).

I'm just providing alternate feedback saying I support the 2K limit. I work from home. So I wouldn't mind a 3k or 4k limit heheh, but then the botters would hit that cap every day.

[tropic crown]

Comp chest blows.

[cinder cairn]

Still. Crashing. All. The. Time. Please fix the game.

[fallen spear]

It's just another slap into players faces 😡

[hoary gate]

When have comp chests been ever really good? That one time with the banner fiasco, is the only time I can think of.

[fleet sable]

Comp chest is pitifully trivial compared to the game breaking issues people have encountered

[tulip ivy]

Not a botter, but now feeling like I am being used ... guess it time to start spending on another game and coast through this one. Not spendong any more on it

[still crane]

I know I meant the q benevolence for 99.99 🤣🤣

[rocky raptor]

I'm ops 49 and it included 2* mats. Just what the doctor ordered to make me forget about everything that has happened.

[sullen escarp]

@cinder cairn did scopley's suggested fix?

[sturdy dune]

The comp chest has a July token. I hit claim and it wants me to pay for packs? What am I not understanding here?

[pastel path]

Go to resources tab I think

[frigid wedge]

Here's my feedback. This patch is broken..it needs to be rolled back and give us a month of regular events. This will give $¢op£€¥ actual time to conduct a proper beta and alpha test.

Closing and reloading the app is NOT a fix
Unequiping a ship is NOT a fix
Using a finite resource to unequip items is NOT a fix
Being quiet about improper event scoring is not good

The "compensation chest" is an insult and needed to include a large amount of uncommon and rare mats based on ops level.

[sturdy dune]

Yep, July claim is in resources tab, thanks.

[rocky raptor]

The July rewards token wasn't a meaningful compensation guys...

It's a taster of what you could buy for the low low price of 99.99

[frigid wedge]

The "redeem" button takes you to the store. To use the tokens you got in the compensation chest, you need to goto the resource tab

[pearl glacier]

Game just keeps on saying I'm offline and kicking me, pretty neat

[ashen lantern]

It's nice that issues are being acknowledged, but they're still affecting both game events and player attitudes. It could be a good gesture to scale back events that use forbidden tech to score, instead of running whatever's planned on the new buggy additions. Just an idea of course.

[crystal violet]

Great, it's not just me

[pearl glacier]

logged in just enough to hit the contribute buttons enough time to finish the bp and just giving up on everything else today

[queen estuary]

is the "compensation gift" for everyone or only those of a certain level?

[sullen escarp]

Think for everyone

[viral stratus]

Ok, I hit “claim”, to get the reward, it took me to the store..now what? I checked under resources, the button still says “claim”.

[vale wasp]

Claim the pip'd chest in Resources tab of the store.

[viral stratus]

Thx a bunch, I was clueless.

General feedback..I’m frustrated as heck with the new update nonsense. How does something this buggy go out into the game?

[sand bear]

Suck

[crystal violet]

Yep a game with a 30-60 second operational lifespan. That little chest ain't gonna cut it. Especially since they made Q's court essentially pay-to-upgrade since you can't get the upgrade items to get past L5 without paying...

[radiant terrace]

Common and Epic FT should be different colors

[last nest]

was planned all along lmao

[languid shard]

How can we put an end to incursions? They are a serious disruption to gameplay.

[void agate]

Maybe win one. Lol

[lyric saddle]

restarting the device does not work as a work around same thing happens as before

[compact terrace]

1. did you read pinned messages re clicking a ship that doesnt have an FT (Forbidden Tech) enabled, and then pressing "Unlock button" and then back out of making a change??? that has been known to fix the connectivity problem

2. theres an announcement in the #⚡-mod-announcements about things to try to help until they have a permanent fix

[nova sierra]

Treasury banner is annoying as heck we get a $99 pack. Game is unplayable and crashing every thirty seconds and we get a dimes worth of comp. Makes perfect sense.

[rocky raptor]

how'd you get it to level 5, i'm lvl 4 😦

@compact terrace what was the one where they had to do some quick upgrades, something to do with endpoints, on some potato servers? and we got like 2 shards and a speed up, it was something like no raid scoring, people who should have got 1st didn't score and one hit wonders got 1st place rewards

[compact terrace]

technically we got one days worth of the $99 pack... so... $3.19??? 🙂 $99 / 31 = $3.19~ but agreed... this is 100X worse than the attack button missing bug (which we got no compensation for either).

And P.S. the rest of the business world is required to have "Roll Back" plans... but I doubt Scopely has any plans except roll-forward.

[rocky raptor]

I think im mixing up times it went kaput, that was the 1st mess up after treasury banner

or was that the incursions final straw/??

[compact terrace]

lol on potato servers... I remember when they basically couldnt score realtime and had a 40 - 60 minutes delay in scoring... thats another one we got nothing for

i remember all this because I just started playing again when the treasury problem came about (Nov, 2022)

then there was the attack button missing (when they had a POTM event where you had to attack the most hostiles to win -- for 20+ days... UGH)

and a ton more problems.

its really hard to keep track of because there has been so many of these stupid issues which should all get fixed well before we see this kind of stuff... We seem like their beta testers, and people actually pay money to them for the chance to TEST their game for them. 😦

IF scopely had a decent DEV/QA cycle and or enough people to handle this complex of a game (with all the interacting pieces) it would be a start, but a decent change backout plan would be the first thing I would call for... Tuesdays seem to now be known as "Bugday". 😦

And keep in mind there are tons of bugs that are marked as "under investigation" that havent really been looked at in years, but it sounds better to be "Under Investigation" as opposed to "Won't fix" when CS tells you they are closing your ticket. 😦

[tropic crown]

Compared to the events I have been unable to score in due to bugs the comp chest straight up sucks.

[quick cove]

Beta testers don't pay, they get paid😐

[compact terrace]

not in the new world order... game makers hold open betas and hope the world finds all their bugs for them for free. customer service is a thing of the past.

[rocky raptor]

@compact terrace i agree with everything you just wrote

just throwing this out there, have we ever had a CM or a Dev or anyone pop on here and say to us "hey, we have been reading this and it is being fed back"? or anything? or even a sorry? an apology? a we must try harder? we are looking to change?

we value your custom?

[torpid kelp]

10 July Elite Daily Reward Chips??? Seriously???? You have a sense of humour😂

[compact terrace]

They have but it comes and goes... and hasnt happened to me in a while... part of the problem is that Scopely doesnt exactly like admitting they just throw this stuff out there without proper testing and expect us to take it.... 😦

As well, once you get pinged via a PM and you provide the feedack, then it goes into a black hole and you never seem to hear anything back EVER.

Oh... I missed the " Field Training bugs" too... couldnt progress even though you built X ship or progressed X Officer past whatever level years ago!!!!!!

[rocky raptor]

i completely forgot about the field training bug

I am absolutely ashamed that i have spent money on this game

[last nest]

i dont think they've ever added anything community requests its always something completely on the other side

[radiant terrace]

I have had a mod respond to a bug with useful info about how they were working on it.

I have also has immature mods just troll me for posting, several times.

[lyric saddle]

@compact terrace i did, it didn't work

[compact terrace]

P.S. I have mad respect for the Mods and and other unpaid people who truly try to help us as players against the craziness that is Scopely. Make sure you know that I dont believe they get the support or information/timelines they NEED to do the job theyve signed up for (again... UNPAID).

[rocky raptor]

I am so ashamed that i have spent money on this game. what a regret.

[radiant terrace]

They did say that they removed global pvp events because of requests, because they couldn’t get the event to work, then went back to doing them 2 days later

[last nest]

A real update would be to make every SLB 2-3 levels so its not just like 1 person out of 50 getting something with how garbage the economy is

[rocky raptor]

here is another one I'm confused about. the compensation scale. what made the treasury banner 100x more damaging than this collection of bugs therefore the last 24 hours deserved 100x less compensation??

Ah a standard vote with your wallet sort of affair.

So what about paying £89.99 for a broken mantis?
I cannot remember that compensation...

[soft pebble]

Hopefully if the AppStore gives them a warning about issues with this app being reported a lot, they would focus on releasing a stable version of this game. I reported straight to AppStore as the Scopley support is non existent from what I can tell from others complaining about it.

[compact terrace]

Im pretty sure that it caused major sales decline... and that cant happen again

Also remember that they gave out October and November Elite rewards with that Treasury bug

[last nest]

yeah more people should be doing this on IOS and google play store, but its hard to report them because a lot of people are tech illiterate and do not know how to report them other than putting bad reviews. It's also very hard to find unless you contact the stores by phone

[soft pebble]

Here is the link for AppStore https://reportaproblem.apple.com/store/1427744264?s=9

[tropic crown]

Compared to event pay out that some of us have zero chance of getting because of bugs it is trash.

[torpid kelp]

I'll write next time it was meant sarcastically. they took my 30 entry coins at the start of the penultimate inclusion, the support needed more than 5 hours to answer the ticket, the same with the last inclusion. 1 minute after the start, all coins were gone and the support needed 11 hours. let's see what happens with the next inclusion. the error would be easy to fix by getting rid of the entry coins

[pale umbra]

The 20 second disconnect is insane. The game is completely unplayable.

[radiant terrace]

You have to take the Forbidden Tech off your ships. The new bugs will go away

[winter oyster]

Game is unplayable.

[red pebble]

When Scopley team have suggested to remove the Forbidden Tech off the ships to improve our gameplay, they also need to remove the events for Forbidden Tech. They should also announce that all those who have participated in the events with the bugs will be rewarded not just the positional rewards that each commander is currently in, but the full rewards for the event to all those who have participated.

[pallid jackal]

Lag is back, crashes continue and that FT equipped bug still not fixed 😂 are the devs already on season break or what ?

[stone pike]

When they suggest removing ships from dry docks, how do you actually do that? I have only ever had a dry dock empty when it's first built.

[kind star]

Apart from all the things that once again don't work because scopely only delivers lousy quality. The update itself has light and shadow - the idea with defeating enemies is quite ok. But what is really abysmally bad is the lack of overview and the increasingly poor structure for navigation.

[nova sierra]

Remove the forbidden tech from all ships.

[kind star]

The comp - chest is a joke, scopely. This just shows again your stinginess and greed! It would have been appropriate to give all players in all current events place 1. After all, it is your abject failure, you have ruined the game for everyone with the update.

[fossil bolt]

I just wonder why we all still get upset and complain while we all absolutely know that nobody that has the power to change anything is reading these comments here and for sure we all know that Scopely really doesn't care a flying monkey of what we think, want or care about. Just give it up, embrace the ignorance and money grabbing greed and either leave the game to get some mental rest or limit your spend to the point of not caring what you get for it 😂🙏

[modest lake]

ill be lucky if i can put a shield up during the recent update i last a short time b4 im kicked....had an alliance attempt to wipe my resources out (playing pc) come on sort it out already!

[pallid jackal]

https://jobs.jobvite.com/scopely/job/owZfnfwR

[obtuse escarp]

What kind of a joke is that, why does it cost:
1 box for OPS 57 = 2,150
and for
1box for OPS 35 1,550?????

With the same amount of reward

[rustic lynx]

I just thought the same…. High obs are allmost blocked to upgrade building… we cant get more rss than lower ops until its leveled up enough to make bigger trials… but we need years to level it!!!

We get 80 of these token each Q quest… we can make about 3 per day… so we need 9 days just for 1 cheat??? That’s absolutely 💩!

Please fix this fast, or provide ebery player a starting chest with parts depending on ops lvl so everyone can use the new content!!!

[pallid jackal]

Because they want you to PAY

[abstract pecan]

Want to know what Scopely think when they read your feedback? "Suck it up and pay, loser"
This has been the way for a long time now. We either live with it or quit. They don't care.

[rapid pulsar]

Good luck with the suggestion to recall your miner and switch two lower deck officers. I can’t even get that option. Seems my ship has no crew 😡

[rustic lynx]

Ne er was that broken… if i remember correctly, last op related content was franklin A, where higher ops couldnt reach the systems for dailys… but at least we could farm the parts very effective compared to low ops and grind the level needed to reach dailys…
Now we have a hard paywall… pay or dont ise new content for years… that never happened before!

[obtuse escarp]

The low OPS can F2P upgrade its building much faster than a high OPS (F2P).

Because of the high you can no longer get RSS.

I don't know what it costs for OPS 19, but he upgraded his building in no time,

[nova sierra]

Ability stuck in cooldown 00s hasn’t ever ended cooldown

[fallen epoch]

Have you tried restarting your game?

[rustic lynx]

I can get 100 parts every 9 days… to unlock 4* trails i need it on lvl40… average costs to lvl 40 is over 1000 parts each…
If i calculate this, i need 9.9years to reach lvl40!!!!!!!

Without spending any ptotomat to upgrade a forbidden tech… so i can stop using it at all, dont think i will play anymore in 10 years, or if the game exists anymore with updates like this 😂😂😂

[obtuse escarp]

Calculate that for OPS 35 🙂 it needs half that.

[rustic lynx]

And ops 20 needs a 1/10 of it i guess…

The refinery chest must be related to building lvl not ops! Ops is irrelevant for daily income, only the lvl of the building matter

[burnt marsh]

Dang, i guess everything has been said lol...

[honest matrix]

@rigid vapor spend 2 weeks fixing bugs and stability rather than pumping out new content, I'm sure we would not mind

[rustic lynx]

But the goal was to reduce daily screentime… so they must bring a new grind every month… oh wait… 😂😂😂

[mental dawn]

Apart from the latest issues with the half cooked updates, have we evere figured out why soem people have been given access/gifts for the super highways and others have not?

[glad crater]

general feedback - for me it means not to discuss special parts of the game but some of the general ways of the game...

1. I wonder more about - it feels like that now - 1000 different currencies in the game, growing from arch to arch, which means: playing the game changes (or did it already change?) from fun to unpayed work. Tooooo complex, toooo much to do.
2. The prices of packages... I am not one of those who have the money to buy the big packages (insteadI like to have a filled fridge), so I miss little useful packages I like/want to buy...
3. Every month new stuff instead of improving/evolving older stuff. Must there be - it feels like that - all trek in the game asap? Why the rush? Why not taking more time?
4. So the owners and the management are doing the same mistakes as others do with their online games... no reflections, no deeper thinking - and what is not surprising for me anymore: no considerations about the philosophy of the game, no considerations how to avoid the mistakes of other games, no thinking about (ok, i repeat that... ^^) how smaller and very cheap packages for money can improve the players game management and gain in this way more money...
5. Because there is a way into the unplayability of the game I even decided to stop spending money for the elite battle pass (what i did for a long time) as a respect for those who are programming and do the real work for the game.

[glad cradle]

It might be related to the forbidden tech bugs. It must be removed from any ship that has it unlocked.

[rapid pulsar]

Yes, I understand that. But this was STFC’s own suggestion for resolving the issue

[sour dew]

Why is the game not working? Server 29. Unable to remove sleeping miners with opc from nodes this Arc is ridiculous and full of problems

[opal finch]

Still having connection issues. Until Scopely fully fixes that aspect of this quick money grab I may not be able to return. Fix the multiship activated as it has slid into connectivity issues.

[umbral thistle]

The list of workaround to new bugs is longer than the list of new features🤣

[unborn ether]

more important: all are related to the new MAIN feature of the arc, funny how none of those have been found in testing

[serene dragon]

Whatever you have done has broken the notification Pips on refinery. All collected but shows as incomplete every time you go to gifts and other sections. Can you not sort all of them so they show ONLY when there is something there.

[jovial parcel]

Getting CTD's with no error now.

[full hound]

Ooo yea. The game is broken bad 🤣. Workarounds are not working for me. #StarTrekFleetBugs

[cosmic anvil]

Upgrade chances of uc and rare FT stated at 85% and 75%. Failure rates >>50% though 😑

[full hound]

I'd take that job! Love QA work

[hearty zenith]

Game is pretty much unplayable at this point. Keep getting connection error shutdowns.

If I'm lucky I can hit a single hostile before it crashes.

[nova sierra]

Buhbye now

[livid zealot]

Are the game being fixed anytime soon or one should just uninstall and ask apple for refund for the last 4 years?

Guess not

[dense notch]

Thanks scopley - your prize broke the game

Can’t even get in to the game after opening the free gift

[full hound]

Q needs to lay off the coffee

[fathom briar]

Sooo, are we going to have to keep trying all the runaround’s just to get the game working functionally indefinitely, or is any of this going to be fixed soon??? I can hardly keep the game up and running for more than a minute on any device - not even long enough to de-equip the FT’s that are causing all the problems (all iOS, of-course)…. Would love to spend more time playing the game than it’s taking to constantly restart the game, or run through the list of runarounds just to try to play the game 🤬

[lapis saffron]

Scopely thinks that by ignoring everything, the game will be ok

[grave quest]

the “workarounds” also don’t even all work for me. the game is not playable and this “comp chest” doesn’t make it ok. #RandsomwareUpdate

[sage token]

Just wait for the 129.99 fix the bugs bundle. Then there is the 64.99 no lag pack.

[dense notch]

Seriously? Come on scopley. Game isn’t even playable at this point.

[pearl glacier]

I can't build a building without getting kicked, start research, kill more than a handful of enemies, start a Q challenge, gonna lose my top spot in the Q dmg SLB over this, this is beyond frustrating

[thin rune]

Everything is super buggy. Health meters are misleading, connection issues, not good

[lament wasp]

game is unplayable FIX IT !

[pearl glacier]

It's the same story on Android, ipad, and PC. All just constantly kick

[lapis saffron]

So Scopely gave us this as compensation. CRAP it doesn’t even compensate what it cost to remove all this crap from my ships

[fervent falcon]

Game is acting up again 😡

Just had 5 x crashes on Android in a 5 minute period. When trying to repair a ship my speedups don't show. There is only an instant option for using latinum.

This is getting out of hand. Worst update probably in the 3 plus years I've been playing now 🤬🤬🤬

[unkempt pawn]

My amalgam won’t take a node. Other ships are fine.

[lament wasp]

did chatGPT write the code for this update? just be honest

[gleaming nebula]

https://tenor.com/view/limbani-monkey-monkey-typing-gif-19301197

[tough bison]

Workarounds: “…swap lower deck crew members…”, “…remove a bridge officer…” how am I supposed to do that when I get this? “0:n0” about sums it up.

[maiden gate]

Here is my feedback regarding the current state of the game with all the forced stops, having to reset localization.... having to "just restart your device" (over and over).

[dense notch]

These are fun to see every 5 seconds

[nova sierra]

Scopely is killing this game with lack of QA. How long before there is a a fix? The compensation was not even worth the lost hours of gaming.

[stoic finch]

What the heck has Scopely done now? Can’t they fix the stability of the platform before they keep adding content that makes the whole thing crash? Th

[kindred siren]

Scopely just threw trash at us. You have to be joking me if you are going to tell me you did not find any of these bugs at testing, and whoever your arc launch manager is approved the current game for launch. You have just made a joke about yourself with the community telling you to fix bugs and test properly, and in spite of all that, you have just given us a trash update. The game is not playable, with bugs in every feature of the game when FT is enabled. How could you have not even had a single report of such issues? Are you just toying with us, with the attitude and mindset of a compensation chest every time? I have been playing this game for 4 years with all its ups and downs, but this has to be your worst release yet. And tbh the first time I considered really deleting the game.

[sand bear]

Same here

[stoic finch]

If it is not stable then don’t keep adding new content that causes your customers to waste their time trying to get online. And I see that, instead of dealing with their, rightly so, upset customers, they put a chat slow down on. After all they don’t give a 💩about us

[edgy harness]

And yet, people still buying packs daily.

Scopely has learned they can completely fail and people will still give them money.

[chrome elm]

this is an epic fail… the newly added content has made the game unplayable

[grim obsidian]

Fix the game!!! Not even using any of the new stuff and it’s crashing like mad!! 😡

[junior sierra]

@tacit obsidian @royal solar look at your last official announcement from yesterday. I mean how embarrassing for you guys and what an downright awful experience for your players. This new arc has over $1K of possible purchases in my store and this is the shart show we have to show for it? I just keep thinking you guys can’t get worse, shame on me I guess….. and your silent, don’t think we haven’t noticed. Go make another YouTube vid, that will make it better.

[river parrot]

when mine did that... I swapped the ship then the crew showed up.

[tropic crown]

Or not being able to score in events.

[abstract ocean]

New client updates are out, wonder what they 'fix' and 'break'?

[unreal ember]

Getting this same nonsense myself. This is just ridiculous.

[stoic fable]

Workaround: uninstall the game, never reinstall it.

[frail latch]

Anyone got a TLDR version of that encyclopedic entry from Candle?

[knotty elbow]

Are the SNW part 3 missions behind an ops lock? I’m ops37 and not showing in my holodeck

[dense crater]

Do you guys not test releases before putting them out? It's a constant "sorry we screwed up the game again" message being posted all the time followed by an apology gift in the game

[pallid jackal]

This is by far the worst arc release ever recorded for this game - and thats something seeing the amount of catastrophic releases in the past 😄

[remote flume]

Please please please improve sourcing for ST epics. Huge bottleneck for too many players. If there’s a special event store coming with the next arc, would you guys please include them? If the goal is to encourage more PvP, please understand that the ST are too OP to compete with for the average player who lacks a complete ST crew. Thanks! 🙏

[nova sierra]

This is all you have to do. Log in, click ship without tech, click red button, click upgrade, then back out. You can then play normally until your next login with the tech on your ships

[sonic cove]

Or even not using the forbidden tech i feel like that is right now the most safest

[rough belfry]

So I find the Q's Trials somewhat interesting, but not fully in line with the Voyager arc. Q didn't put Voyager on trial, that was Picard and The Next Gen crew. So while neat Scopely just kind of mashed together two different things.

[nova sierra]

They have no real internal QA team. Their testing is minimal. We are the testers.

[worn pasture]

I am Spartacus

[junior sierra]

I just figured it out. They need to give us all a free new dock because now we need to keep a ship home to go through the above loop 😂

[deft siren]

can the FT be put back into the ships for the event? was there a fix?

[worn pasture]

Yes. Update first: #⭐-official-announcements message

[vale wasp]

Try the update first, but if it fails this is the workaround:

Reboot
Immediately manage a ship without FT slot unlocked
Enter FT section
Click FT unlock slot at the top
Close the popup window

That's it. Do not deviate, adjust, or linger. The game can be played normally after that.

[frail latch]

Much appreciated. That post left me dizzy 😂👍🖖

[vale wasp]

Thanks for the feedback. I've streamlined it in case today's minipatch doesn't fix the problem.

[torn haven]

Sometimes i think this channel is only for us and nobody take care about our Feedback

[hoary estuary]

can you please add Prime Structure (HHP) pack to iOS shop?. thanks

[graceful ember]

The compensation gift is a joke for the problems the players had. I couldn't play for almost a whole day. I don't understand why you don't compensate the players properly. Apparently you don't need players and you don't need paying players. Please create a test server. Test decently with the community and then it should work with the updates.

[chrome vortex]

I know you have the limit because we have a lot of bot boys but why don't you put a tracker on the screen like you do for Treasury showing how many hostiles have been killed between resets. You just had an event where you wanted us to kill a lot of hostiles in order to score and some people are now locked out for other things because of the cap.

[urban verge]

I'm unsure if this will be looked at but wanted to talk about Court of Q a little bit. This has/had the potential to be an awesome new addition to the game. Something for almost all ops levels to work towards and enjoy. I know for a lot of ops 50+ players that aren't constantly pvping they're looking for new challenges to work towards. The fact that it will take many months/years to level the Court of Q building to 25 just to unlock the 3* trials seems horrible to me and many others I've spoken to between the servers.

If you look at a building like Mess hall its fairly enjoyable because its pretty easy to level up and has good value. The Q building itself has limited value and is incredibly expensive to level up. I'm ops 44 and at the current pull rate I can maybe pull 100 "Embllems of Assessment" every 5 days roughly. It would take me well over 22+ months just to get the building to 25. That means for the next almost 2 years I have no new Trials to enjoy. I'm just going to be running the same thing over and over again with no challenge added for trials for a very long time.

I understand this is a "freemium" type game and your looking for people to spend money. But at least make it worth while in the long run. I would much rather spend on a pack I know will get me very close to my goals vs needing to get over half a grand in just to get level 25 on one building. I feel like Scopely has good ideas and makes fun new content then locks it so heavily behind a paywall it actually turns more people away from the game. The Mess Hall is one of the best buildings you've added in recent types because it actually feels like I progress with it often. When you make a building that's going to be years for me to reach anything new it makes it pointless to me. I know a ton of players who would happily spend much more money on this game if the packs provided more value or weren't all 100$.

[elder pollen]

Still getting erroneous connection issue errors forcing quit of the game

[sleek grove]

Court of Q bites. I have had nothing but trouble with it. And I lost out on winning the event because the game just didn't work. I finished all 3 lvl 1*trials and I'm locked out of all the lvl 2 trials. I also upgraded the forbidden tech to lvl 8 and got NO credit for leveling it up at all. That's 2 events I lost due to this game?

[chilly copper]

When equipping an forbidden technology, I can't switch my officers... UI is totally broken

[silk charm]

that should be fixed now if you update your game client

[elder pollen]

I can't upgrade Q's building, I can't spend bells, I can't upgrade any more tech, so I'm failing to complete or rank in the Q events ... all because I completed all three challenges on the first day. I wasn't playing slow enough.

[elder pollen]

I mean, does that make sense?

[woeful coral]

You can repeat the last enemy as many times as your bells allow, but you only get protomatter

[hidden night]

@tacit obsidian I'd like a bit more explanation and rational behind having to pay to unlock a Forbidden Tech slot on every ship then also having to pay again to remove a tech it once I installed it, funny how it doesn't cost me anything to install a new one but I have to pay to remove the existing. It seems to me that it simply devalues the new currency to have to keep spending it in such a pointless way, I'm sure that someone thinks its a great idea and a great way to sell packs, and if it had worked the first time, maybe, but sure seems like its designed to always leave players behind the 8-ball and waste time to farm a resource just to throw it away.

[void agate]

Ran update for ios and still locked out.

[tough bison]

Thanks. I’d found a workaround for the workaround already…mostly just making a commentary on the true nature of “Q’s Trials,” which seem to be human perseverance through the pain of this update.

[hidden night]

I completely agree with you on this, 100%, conceptually theres great potential here, execution wise though is horrible and absolutely a pay to play mechanic. I'm ops 44 myself, the current setup of this building and refinery is just worthless and I refuse to spend any money on such a badly designed and executed mechanic. Normally we'd get the materials to upgrade the building through a daily chest like the treasury or mess hall, or through the building itself like the exocomp factory, it actually gives you a reason to use it and stay current with it; the meager rewards at early levels for cmpleting trials, for a new ops 19 or 20 please maybe makes sense but for higher level players constantly playing catchup, there needed to be more thought put into this. The trials being level locked on a building doesn't bother me, the gap and cost of that building does, its 10 days to get to level 7 ftp, to get to level 25..., thats just insane and sorry but this is a dead on launch feature as far as I'm concerned. The pattern of cosmetic, ship, building, commander holds true this month and if Scopely wants to continue that flow there needs to be serious consideration to launch chests being bracket specific and allowing some sort of catch up mechanic to make the buildings actually valuable for higher level players to push without expecting them to drop coin to do it.

[obsidian plinth]

The game is becoming like a bad horror movie

Finger hovering over the game update button, wondering what bad things will happen if I press 🤣🤣

[spark crescent]

I get this error when trying to install tetracynate 622 on a 2nd Horizon - running on windows PC.. and updated

[fallen epoch]

Have you updated the game?

[bitter hearth]

yes have same after update:D

[tropic crown]

Don’t put out trash updates that don’t work. This is third ticket I had to file in less 24 hours. Of course the first one they did nothing as customer service is worthless. I lost resources that I never going to get back. Even after the update today!

[lone shard]

Maybe you should have testet that version one more week. Well it seems to work somehow if you deactivate all forbidden tech. But I don't understand how this can cause connection errors. Wouldn't bei the first game I quit because of massive bugs. 😉

[mighty spire]

Why have an event that has you kill as many hostiles as possible in a 24 hour period? Oh… and if you happen to reach the hostile limit, you can’t do your normal farming. Lovely.

[tropic parcel]

Exactly where im at, competing in the last event have screwed me for the next 24 hours

[ashen lantern]

Speaking of normal farming, how about way to trade in tokens for resources? Instead of farming borg probes, maybe allow trading them for nanoprobes. I'd expect a reduced exchange rate. As an example, I can farm 500k nanoprobes per token. The trade might give me 100k. It could reduce the grind and make some of these loops easier.

[tropic crown]

One week clearly wouldn’t have been enough.

[nova sierra]

When did 30 day shields get removed from the Alliances store? Maximum available is now 7 days. Similarly no more 1hr shields?

A long long time ago

[low swift]

What's this message about 'Bad things happen if you leave forbidden tech equiped to long'. How long and what bad things?

[atomic imp]

Update didn't solve issues on Android, this game is garbage now

[tropic crown]

So forbidden tech is bugged with exccomps. Don’t try to unlock a slot with one running. It will take the upgrade cost, say to many exocomp running and then not open the slot on the your ship. An with scoopley customer service your out of luck.

[split harbor]

Can we get the apex event store cool down timers removed conpletely or at least reduced. This runs every week, should be able to spend currency when I want or all at once instead of being constantly locked out.

[fallen epoch]

Years ago? 🤔

[formal plinth]

So my ships don’t earn xp anymore or collect red cargo I’ve tried different ship

[silk charm]

You have hit 2,000 hostiles since the limit reset. You won't be able to get loot from anything until that limit resets later today at what I'm told is 5am UTC

[chrome vortex]

@tacit obsidian @royal solar Why not put a counter on the number of hostiles and reset it when it resets. You had a competition with scoring for killing hostiles, is it fair to have a limit when you have a slb ? Counter for daily hostiles would be really helpful. Thanx in advance.

[chrome lake]

Didn't notice that tier 2 requires a level 7 court. I finished the first tier and now I have nothing to do for dailies and the dailies help the building. That's pretty lame.

[silk charm]

you can repeatedly start and beat the highest level hostile of a challenge for protomatter and dailies

[reef kelp]

What’s going on with the wifi,it’s not my end it’s yours fix the dam problem

[remote trellis]

Can't win loot or hirogen relics. Cargo reads 0 after I hit over 50 ships. What a waste of time. You really mess the game up!

[tawny walrus]

I HATE the new failure mechanic on upgrades. HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE addition to the game.

I had 4 failures in a row. 4!!! At an 85% chance of success. That's infuriating and an absolute waste of materials. I desperately HATE this new "feature." It's absolute garbage.

[silk charm]

You have hit 2,000 hostiles since the limit reset. You won't be able to get loot from anything until that limit resets later today at what I'm told is 5am UTC

[tawdry swift]

Nice claim icon that sends you to the store....careful you greed is really showing😂. You guys are making this game easier and easier to walk away from nevermind someone new trying to start up🤣

[jade patio]

Just out of curiosity (because I’ve been wondering since they did it), exactly WHY did they put a 2000 limit on the loot? I can’t think of a single reason, game related or otherwise.

[surreal condor]

In 2021, when they implemented the limit, it was 1,500. At the time, it was stated to be an anti-botting measure as bots were being used to grind rep and were contributing to excessive lag. The limit was monitored and later increased to 2,000. Unfortunately, while it did help certain server load issues, it did not remediate the lag.

[jade patio]

Ahhh, Bots. I hadn’t thought about that. Makes perfect sense. Maybe when people ask about it, tell them it’s the “anti Bot limit”. I bet most would get that right away.

[surreal condor]

I'm hoping it gets increased again, because 2,000 seems to be hit a lot recently.

[silk charm]

the current state of augment space seems to have made it much easier for people to hit the limit for sure, and I would expect us to hear a lot of people discovering it over the next two "kill hostiles constantly" SLB's

[vale wasp]

You should claim the pip'd exchanges in the Resources section of your store.

[vale wasp]

There's an issue with FTs that's linked to that error message. You should try the workaround pinned in #👾-bug-reporting

[raven locust]

Voyager Field Training has a surprising hurdle in the second to last milestone. Assuming you are able to do maximum turn-ins for both rare anomaly samples and species 8472 loot, you can get 1,000 commerce loot per week. The Field Training milestone requires 100k to be exchanged, so...100 weeks? A milestone that takes two years to complete if you never miss a target?

[supple bane]

Lovely the game is completely unplayable now on PC

[tepid bramble]

Did you REALLY think they would give a prime for free? When I did that calculation I said screw that noise. The game isn’t going to be around past Christmas, let alone two years 🙄

[potent shard]

Question, those using Android/iPhones, has your device all of a sudden feels hotter than normal after this last application update?

[stone ibex]

Why is your website so incredibly poorly maintained that it takes almost half an hour to get the daily mission key???!!!!???

[tropic crown]

So thats not just me.

[waxen flame]

It just now finally shows the July Pack as free.

[stone ibex]

Which July pack is free?!?

[fossil bolt]

It's just amazing how this game artificially is kept on high rating on Google play store and iOS store by the Scopely bots. Please all make it a habit to report these bots on the stores. Scopely is using these ratings to lure in poor new souls to milk their cash with bot ratings while delivering the worst quality game in store 😡

[void agate]

They wont post negative reviews

[cerulean sandal]

OMG, the level of frustration caused by every single design element of Q'sTrials is absolutely surreal! It feels as though they intentionally gathered every negative comment ever made by players about different aspects of the game, combined them into one monstrous feature, and unleashed it upon us. Did they mistakenly mix up the page with positive suggestions and the one containing negative feedback? How could the design department possibly overlook such a glaring mistake? I must emphasize that it is undeniably a trial, but unfortunately, a highly flawed and unsatisfactory one.

[jolly pelican]

How about taking a couple months to fix the damn game stability and lag issues, and in-numerous bugs that have been around forever? And in the mean time re-run events so players who don’t want to spend 30 grand in an arc to get new content; can maybe get some of the new content!!!!!

Oh wait what am I saying?!?!? Not pushing out pay to win leaderboards and bugged content fails won’t generate ridiculous income from whales with to much money and to few brain cells.

Carry on scopley.

[nova sierra]

What about don’t add something new in arc, but first fix all bugs, lags etc. I appreciate way more than a lot new stuff, grinding etc. that would be a good Arc. You maybe don’t earn a lot money on new ship packs, new currency packs, but make for one time people happy.

[opal finch]

Dropping the price tags for most of everything would be a huge start.

[nova sierra]

@tacit obsidian Server 108, can you please update power rankings of the alliance tabs for us? Been months wrong now and new players getting misleads into dead alliances with all roe consequences that follows.. we all we greatly appriciate it 🖖

So having an issue with my ships that I’ve added forbidden tech to. They attack a ship and the game crashes saying that there is a connection issue with the game and it reloads. Does something similar with my mining ship with forbidden tech it’s a broken add at this point and doesn’t work properly. I play on iPhone if that helps you fix the problem.

[vague trellis]

did you already install the newest patch, it's supposed to fix it

[weak ravine]

Game is super buggy this morning. Cannot update crews, all boxes are blank. Cannot select a resource to mine, just get a spinning wheel. Latest version downloaded from App Store. iPhone and iPad same issues.

[vale wasp]

I'd check the version you're running, settings/general, we're on 1.000.32120 now. If you don't have that, you can try manually updating or uninstall/reinstall. If you still have issues, there's a workaround pinned in #👾-bug-reporting

[weak ravine]

Manual update did the trick @vale wasp Cheers

[opal summit]

Q Trials have 3 tracks. If I'm doing the explorer track why give me seals of approval for the battleships? I'm not fighting battleships. Makes no sense.

[lime holly]

Did the "fix" from yesterday and thought I could mine with FT equipped today. PC version is consistently crashing. If I couldn't play on any other device I wouldn't be able to play at all.

Q Trial

point 1
refinery for fusion rods / tier up catalysts is just for show, they could be dailys rewards as well but give us players the option to choose what we prefer.

Fusion rods themselve are a pay to use frequently mechanic
Tier up catalysts have the chance of getting wasted when trying to tier up a FT

Reactors get delivered by completing dailys as well, so why are catalysts a refining option and reactors not?
No Consistency or just a wanted timegate to sell packs? force players into doing events.

point 2
the difficultycurve is way to steep!
given that players can start at ops 19 the will probably not be able to complete anything beyond their 2nd fight.
it gets better with the 3* ships but completing the 1* stage will take big g3 epics.

so better call is a 3* stage and not 1* stage, will help in destroying illusions.

point 3
protomatter can only be gained by events or when completing a trial,
the option to refine protomatter into emblems which will boost your buildings progression for more protomatter is ok, pricing and payout might need a second look

combined with point 2 and the need for g3 epic ships before completing stage 1 will lock out many many new players from getting a source of protomatter to upgrade their FT or use the refinery for emblems.

conclusion
this is a ops 35 start building, not 19. they just placed a ops 19 sticker on it and said deal with it when designing many ways to sell more packs

[kind star]

This is by far the worst update I've seen in this game! Shame on you, scopely! That's not all: Support doesn't respond to my request either. The events are about to expire and probably nothing will happen in the next 2 hours. Good. Then just revoke the purchased pack. You have even more work and less money. Your decision.

[nova sierra]

Competing with DS9's release, where they needed to put the game back into a lengthy 2nd maintenance... But it's at a similar level of failure

[trail vault]

Someone at the office gets up, walks over to a whiteboard that says "Days since game breaking bug:" erases the 0 and writes in 0

[magic sedge]

I did the first Delta Quad and the rest vanished.... what's up with that?

[rose escarp]

Same with me and a lot of guys in my alliance.

[nova sierra]

Feedback: don't put out new content for a month. Spend a month fixing bugs, and just put out officer flash passes for a month. Also use that time to polish future content to make sure it's something that community wants, is properly balanced, and properly tested.

A month break in between content would definitely allow the designers time to properly design an event, and the programmers more time to polish their code.

This should actually be done regularly. New content every other month. Officer flash passes every other month.

[hoary estuary]

Delta Adversary events disappear after doing first mission

[astral mesa]

If i worked for scopley i wouldnt be able to sleep at night knowing what trash product im putting out regularly.......

[gleaming nebula]

I guess no explanation needed

[summer pewter]

RE: Delta Data. I'm level 19. I went to the correct systems and my scan did not take and the event disappeared from my que. Server 61 Beater2149. I'm not the only one having issues with Delta Data this go around. Many in my alliance, PRIZ Starfleet are experiencing the same issues.

[winged storm]

what is the answer for the delta 1?

[untold zephyr]

Lainey. Once I completed. Rest disappeared

[winged storm]

well 16 days to get it fixed

[nova sierra]

I wrote same before, I agree

[muted spruce]

This tool tip may need to be changed. I don’t think I have ever seen a Command Badge drop from a pvp battle. 🤔

[analog tartan]

Formation armadas busted. Can’t start

[old seal]

Never ever in 4 years of playing. Absolute rubbish

[swift steppe]

The Franklin descriptions on upgrade page are also bogus

[analog tartan]

Error

[potent blade]

You have got to be on drugs. My strongest ship is 2.4M and I have to go against 4.6M int, 7.8M swarm and 4.9M battleship and that's just the first level. I can't go any further in Q's contest and I can't even upgrade because all I get now is only Try Again. You really dropped the ball this time. Maybe in 6 mos I can continue but probably won't want to then!

[gleaming nebula]

One funny looking explorer

[rocky raptor]

well thats just a blatant lie

[nimble wharf]

Any word when Tetracyanite Forbidden Tech supposed to be functional?

[silk charm]

as of the update yesterday morning

[nimble wharf]

Yesterday FT went from nonfunctional and game crashing to simply nonfunctional so that’s a plus. I have Level 5 Tetracyanite on my Meridian and no mining speed boost with parsteel, Isogen, or G3. I removed and reapplied FT post patch update too. Does that tech only work on mining a specific thing?

[nimble wharf]

I used my Amalgam which is 875 mining speed vs Meridian 850 for comparison. I also used a stopwatch to calculate mining speed since Northstar doesn’t usually show actual speed too.

[civic haven]

Why even have mission dialogue if no one is going to proofread it (not even the first person who wrote it giving it a once-over)? I’d be fine without it for the record. But if you insist, please up the quality for the few of us paying attention

[frank shuttle]

Normal hostile crews work & ship skills. So pmc & Franklin on the swarm ones.

[gleaming nebula]

What’s wrong with this picture’s? Is the info wrong or the game update from yesterday is again a failure? @tacit obsidian @royal solar

[civic haven]

🎵This is not the greatest explorer in the world, no🎵
🎵This is just a Tribune🎵
🎵We couldn’t remember the greatest explorer in the world so🎵
🎵This is a Tribuuuuuune🎵

[velvet trench]

Here too. Both on tablet and smartphone.

[gleaming nebula]

Tribune, is that a new survey ship? 😏

[earnest granite]

So, the refinery for Emblems of Assessment is completely out of whack.
For a single refine giving me 100 Emblems I need 1950 protomatter but I only receive 80 Protomatter per Q trial.
To go from Q's Court 5 to 6 I need 3 refines. That means 5850 protomatter. Which means 74 Q trials. A trial costs 25 bells and we receive only 80 a day.
Which means 24 days.

24 DAYS TO GET LEVEL 6.
Who came up with this brainfart?

[vague trellis]

Yeah it's a very long process, even if you add the 75 Emblems you get for 3 trials from the daily

[earnest granite]

That is an understatement. 😂
It is another blatant Cashgrab by Scopely, releasing a feature that will be virtually useless for a very very very very long time UNLESS you drop a few hundred €$£.
It's really embarrassing.

[vague trellis]

since the reward is low anyway or need tons of leveling to get decent, I say it will be forgotten very quick
