[quaint haven]

Good job syncing daily events with resets like we were told was going to happen.

[kind star]

It's really unbelievable, this lousy company scopely keeps taking it to the extreme in 2024. New garbage is added every week and they continue to annoy the players. Quality = 0.

[exotic bison]

Can we please please have more and more different armadas? And please please more of then like the new xindi armada with a 7 day cooldown. Just in case scopely doesn't get the joke, not going to buy armada packs

[cursive gale]

You know I had a player in my alliance mention his Sompek cannot even reach teh 55UC which based on both our chests is what we're expected to kill. This is just beyond stupid

[nova sierra]

in the Event for server 126 Armada hunter sms u say epic and rare armadas cout have done both types in eclipse and solo Nada you don't mention it is only a certain type of Armada that score typical money grabbing scopely

[cinder portal]

Oh just found another one....
You are just kidding me that you are now selling a Prime-Armada-Command for 100 bugs..
that was normal in the past YOU made it a single start only and now you want us to pay for getting something back which was normal????

really you guys are overstretching the pay2win by far over the last months

[kind minnow]

@eco how many rare xindi armadas would we have to run to open one armada box ?

[opaque raft]

Instead of that crap, scopley should have focussed on using the news channel. It was NEVER used to communicate essential info on current situations.
Like that (and when) an incursion will happen, explanations of crappy events like the present phlox, announcing a maintenance.
Nope/nada/nothing of the sort. I’m sure this streaming crap is shortlived and wont be used well. Scraply communication in general is far worse than anything else in this ‘game’. Scamply knows it, but deliberately dont do anything about that since game start.

[mighty imp]

This has to be the worst gd event store month in the history of this game ! Promising quality at the start of the year, then stuff players with quantities of content in the first 3 month. And when it’s time for event store month. Have event not pay event store currency, keep events behind paywall that give event store loot. Literally the stingiest this company has ever been and that too after making such bold promises.
All you can do is continue being the epitome of incompetence!

[cedar crescent]

@tacit obsidian the Armada hunter SMS is either broken or needs to be labelled Heroic so it can be ignored! I don’t have directives to launch 32 rare armadas!!! Who actually does apart from Uber spenders. Now if it was like the wording ‘start a rare or epic armada’ and that included all types that is different. But eclipse don’t score. What’s the betting Borg/dominion won’t either.
Quality over quantity seems a long way off from what is being released.

As predicted Dominion don’t score.!!!

[ionic void]

they dont read here, better rate game 0 on playstore, stop spending and send complaints.

[crisp wren]

Feedback … please create more primes, more packs and more pay to play events. Oh wait, that’s already the standard for this game 🤮

[opaque raft]

So as this button doesnt do anything, where can we find this useless ‘viewscreen’?

[valid grove]

„This prime could have been a simple research“.
The audacity to try and sell solutions for problems your own bad game design choices (more than 20 different types of armadas!) created, is just flabberghasting

[gloomy cypress]

@tacit obsidian @royal solar like seriously where is the quality vs quantity that we were promised. This is getting frustrating. Extra stuff is like stuff hobos refuse to throw away and carry as personal property. Bek you may not be a CM but definitely the mouthpiece for our great overlords. You make snazzy videos of new content that you probably dont even play outside the controlled systems at Scopely headquarters. You are not the "hotfix that was needed.

Oooo slowmode 💩

[vivid breach]

I’ve been in 5 of the new xindi armadas. Lvl 53 uncommon. Gotten the bonus chest a few times

I have 2mil to use toward a chest

One chest requires 12.8 mil!!

So I need another 30 armadas??

Another “quality” improvement

[cold yoke]

28 days for a single xmada call huh, real cool scopely, real cool....

[midnight coral]

so lets wrap up.
Xindis is a heavy grind for some level. For example 50-55, because you are not able to kill those 51er cargo hostiles.
Silent enemies is even worth. My T2 Sanctus is able to kill 1 hostile. I need 10 for a chest. Perfect scalation i guess.
Xindi armada loot is horrible. You need like 10 weeks to open a single chest.

How we are suppoesed to do all those stuff? Well its easier when the new content is not doable without paying...
my motivation has suffered greatly over the last few months due to the bad changes. Maybe that is scopely's plan

[torpid cargo]

Its Ops based for sure. Here at ops 46, I have found all this new stuff pretty easy to do quickly. I'm stocked on Xindi scraps for a few weeks, I've got silent hostile loot for max pulls for a few weeks. Can't comment on the new armadas though yet....

[kind star]

@tacit obsidian Why does a level 67 player have the same cost as a level 57 player? 12.8 million for a uc chest? I have no chance to start or reach an armada with a ship that a level 67 player can reach! Making the cost of chests from level 57 as high as for all other players above is simply unfair. Level 55-56 = 3.x M from level 57-x it's 12.8.

[vivid breach]

Just was in a lvl 56 uc. Got 1 mil. Need 12.8 mil

So 13 lvl 56 uc armadas for ONE chest

Seriously. Early April fools joke on us?

[cosmic knoll]

if this was released at the start of the arc, noone would of bought the BP unlock, thats probably the real reason why it was launched mid-arc

[vivid raft]

#1042855078761091072 message
"...
These can be exchanged in the event store for event progress. Note that there are SMSs on 3 days so saving some exchanges, it only takes two to finish an SMS event, can be beneficial."

Perfect example of EPIC FAILURE in event design and communication, this information should have been provided ahead of the event start and in-game by the Admin bot multiple times ... Not to mention that even the Content Creators ware not aware of that when they made the videos, there is a ALB/SLB that it turns out is pay to win (points can be bought in the store for $$$) and the mission requires you to "refine" all 6 beasts.

[vapid bough]

looks like another nail has been put in the games coffin, if things keep going like this 90% of players will just quit

[abstract pecan]

Maybe it’s just me but is anyone else seeing the activity level on their server change dramatically recently? Feels like players across the scale are just not engaging with the game any more. Even the whales and big spenders seem to be losing the love?
New content missing the mark? Too much new grind? New paywalls just too big? I’m not sure what it is but players just don’t have the same excitement for the game. First time I’ve started to think that the game is deep in to its final chapter. Heck, even the CCs are posting less, playing other games.
Kind of sad. It could have been so much better if the game didn’t depend on rinsing players of every last dime if they want to access new content 🤷‍♂️

[last tendon]

I have enjoyed the arc so far, something to look at would be the new Armada Loot chests for 57+, the amount needed is impractical without doing the level 60 UCs. They cannot be reached reasonably below OPS 60

[last nest]

they are built that way its supposed to be so you buy armada start packs

[vapid bough]

yea @last tendon the nx and the crew have been great but the xindi hostiles, silent hostiles and the new armadas make the game impossible to keep up with. i myself worked my backside off to reach ops 42 over the last 6 months to just be the right ops level when new stuff came out, now there pushing the ops requirement for new content beyond what 90% of players are

[last nest]

once you saw them making primes thst required 4-5 packs to complete you shouldve known that content was going to go towards those that are 60 plus.

The game is in its like final stretchs just like their walking dead game it will just be people who cant get over themselves spending $3000 plus on a mobile game its how most profit focused games are they already sold the company aswell that was the sign of end

now savvy games will try and get their buy out by making even more packs

[wide marsh]

I'm seeing a lot of us just being crankier. More rogues, more extreme reactions to rogues, more bringing up bad history, etc.

[sacred garden]

Heck you should know by now that scopley doesn’t care about fans and players they only care about money. Tell fools who spend money on things that ain’t worth the cost stop they’ll keep on chugging along that path.

[vapid bough]

i agree if scopely thinks there getting a penny out of me then there mistaken.

[cosmic knoll]

when you exempt a group of players from any meaningful event activity due to trying to force monetisation, ppl just leave (got nothing to do).
what you should be doing is running events for everyone with several 2day monetised events for the spenders. this way both spenders and f2p get to be active, and spenders can go that extra mile with a paid event that gets them the bonus for $$

this whole 'less is more because of quality' is pure male cow. we arent seeing much 'quality' all we see is less, and if that dont change, then you will see less players

[kindred marlin]

Pain point: lag
Why: it's lag
Solution: Clear out all useless mats, including ship bps for ships that can't be scrapped. I have event currency from 2020 gumming up the works. Give us nothing, I don't care, just clear them from the servers. Any work done cleaning up old code would be helpful.

Pain point: Grinds
Why: it's not 2020, most of us had to go back to work. I have time to claim my daily chests and refines, do dailies and events, and usually two Actian runs. I don't always have time for group armadas, solo armadas, swarms on Sundays, Xindis, Waves, grinds with any ships released since the Voyager, doing diplomatic planning with other alliances, or even casual chatting with teammates--the best part of the game for me. The Freebooters helped tremendously, so solutions are possible.
Solution: Oh, I don't know...maybe DON'T GIVE US NEW GRINDS?

Thank you.

[rough tusk]

The game is getting more and more annoying for me. Every new update bring more and more new content. There is no more quality on the server. There are more and more bugs lags and stuff. But yeahh we got another new armada. The really last good update was the freebooter who helped alot. The xindi is just a fail in my eyes…..

[dull bough]

ummm why are we getting this now? Jan 22? is this supposed to be March? and if so talk about giving not much notice

[mossy pecan]

not only is it increasingly becoming a second job and not only a second job that you don't get paid for as you mentioned, but one that you have to bring money and in order to do that you pretty much have to take on a third job so you can pay for it .

[mossy harbor]

Yes and previous mergers were pushed out due to you not wanting to interrupt a TC season, if that is supposed to be 3/22....Umm that is in the middle of yet another TC season...???

[vapid bough]

yea i agree freebooters and the ex borg research tree was last good addition. the nx-01 is a great ship and always using mine but the hostiles they have added in the last few arcs are way too difficult for the levels you have to be to win. also making it so you have to use the new officers to win and making it impossible to gain these officers is insane

[kindred marlin]

Pain point: Incursions on Friday
Why: Tiny alliance with one territory, every Friday evening. We get hammered by the other server while we're innocently trying to grab points for the territory BP event.
Solution: Incursions on Tuesday, the one day without territory battles.

[weary elm]

Why are dates and time "so hard" Scopely.

[weary sentinel]

Prime armada command another QOL improvement locked behind a 4 level prime £400 cheers scopely! discovery £150 2 level prime is still leaving a bad taste in my mouth tbh which was another QOL locked behind a paywall 🤦‍♂️

[trail vault]

I'm hearing from an ops 49 that their weekly pull from exborg store is 250 xindi armada directives. As it takes 1000 to launch, this would mean it takes 4 weeks (1 month) to source a xindi uncommon armada launch.

Does this seem insane to anyone else?

(I'm ops 59 and get 1k per week, which is still pretty bad since these cost 1k to launch)

[finite mural]

it's 51+, lower ops normally wouldn't be getting anything, but they're giving the a chance to stock up some

[queen estuary]

Hitting the OK button on a message ingame that regards game updates should not open a youtube video. That should be a separate button.

[weary elm]

Why do a server merge Mid TC Scopley???? This is some BS!!!

[trail vault]

Well then let's talk about what you can do with the payout from your 1 launch per week.

It costs 12.8 million unc xindi armada loot for 1 chest pull. Base loot is 980k. Even with officer bonuses (and hopefully research) once you split between group members, what is our average loot per uncommon armada? That number (X) will vary based upon ship power/% of group total power, but I can't imagine it will be much more than 2-3 million on average (if even that).

So we're looking at needing to do 4-6 xindi uncommons to roll one chest.

Again, does this not seem insane to anyone?

[queen estuary]

There are a lot of aspects of the game that are insane.

[sacred garden]

I know it cost to make games, but not a single one of the things in the store worth anywhere near a $100 . I’m all for supporting games I like but I refuse to be forced into buying anything. Buying is a choice so quit making these stupid events to force people to buy it sucks the fun and life out of these games.

[hard aurora]

I see the new system "Samhailan" and think

[sacred garden]

There’s no rare or epic of these? I didn’t check all systems just half of them , but if not that’s a shame.

[finite mural]

no there isn't, their level and loot drop amount just goes up

[trail vault]

On average, a lvl 55 player in his alliance needs to do 19 total at average 700k (highest payout he's had) to pull one chest.

Ops 64 on our server, doing level 57 xindi uncommons with 2 others (let's say he received 85% of the loot) only received 3.5mil per xindi. Meaning he still needs to do 4 total xindi uncommon lvl 57 armadas to pull one chest.

Suffice to say, feedback is this is an awful thing to attempt right now as it's outlandishly broken

[swift steppe]

On Merger, does 90->91 mean "with 91" OR "into 91"??

[unkempt goblet]

They changed the date in the news to March 26th. Y'all know that's just in a couple of days, right? And in the middle of a territory pass.

I just want to know how a merger in 7 days is supposed to work in the middle of a territory pass. There are still 4 weeks left on it.

[last nest]

it costs zero dollars to make pixels even in their tos they say nothing has value

[fluid mist]

i can understand giving a lower ops a chance to stock up its a great idea it really is but as an ops49 myself that means it takes me a month to do what ops 51+ does every week. For armada chests ot costs me 600k which i cant do from the 1 starter chest I'd get per month. to get directives for a rare xindi call again would taoe forever as i get 200 dorecrives every 2unc calls which takes 2 months. So the xindi armada's yep i can stock up but anything that is supposed to help me with loot from other armada's is 4x longer. Think I'll stick woth just calling every type of armada but xindi its faster than waiting for the free directives if i trade in all the other factions

[pale drift]

great Going scopley. instead of fixing issues with the game you wasted time bringing out into game the Video BS. as always fail!!!!!!

[sand karma]

Adding videos into the game, wasn't needed nor necessary. It's a waste of code and valuable system and mobile resources which is needed for all these memory issues.

[swift steppe]

I would much MUCH prefer having my private messages stay around

[karmic meadow]

Great idea scopley...merge servers right in the middle of a territory season... take an entire week+ out of availability if it holds to prior mergers...so anyone on those servers won't be able to finish the season pass

[jaunty prism]

I have never cared less about something than I do about Scopely's videos, adding a new button that won't go away until I click on them is annoying and pointless.

[cosmic basin]

Just more stuff in the game that wont get used as reward system is rubbish more memory and storage going to waste

[pale drift]

all Scopley is doing is killing their player base and then the game with all this bs that we will never use, or want. that take up more memory. Since this was originally made for Devices like tablets, and phones they don't take into consideration the amount of memory this game takes with all the uneccessary bs that we DON'T want!

[kind minnow]

the real question is why does this "mobile game" take as much ram as a triple A mmo on a pc ;p its not top of the line graphics.. a killer soundtrack or a immense open world mmo. 0_0

[sacred garden]

Maybe you have to catch a scopley employee to get 3 wishes , since they got that leprechaun greed

[final matrix]

Why would there be a merger during an active territory season, wtf is going thru their heads. At least wait until it finishes in April before they do the merger. Players have been leaving left and right, the mergers are evidence of that, they’re just going to lose more players and at this point I won’t spend another penny on this game if they continue to plan so poorly.

[fluid mist]

to be fair this might be their plan to shed some more players that arent progressing as fast as the powers that be feel they should be... sorry I'll remove my tin foil hat now

[next haven]

This may be pretty accurate, with each new hostile the bring they want you to hit your level but if you didnt buy the new officers or get the ships that correspond to level and max it. You get cannot hit at the level scopely suggests, which adds to my theory that noone on the development or marketing actually play.

[graceful cedar]

I just miss the days when event stores actually had items you wanted or needed.

[fluid mist]

Oh i agree jack i love getting new content. That being said giving new hostiles that depend on new officers locked behind paywalls or leaderboards. Which are geared for blowing all your unc/rare/epic mats every week certainly hurt a players enthusiasm to stick around for the long haul each and every month

[twilit ember]

Really Scopley? I am OPS59, Xindi Armada Level 56 (Starter Chest 1.2 million credits and about 700k loot). But i need 12.8 million loot to open ONE chest in Alliance Store?
And you can start 1 armada every 7 days. .. incredible

[molten inlet]

Federation Formada!

[finite mural]

🤨

[dense belfry]

Scopely can you think about adding more officers to the ultra pack and/or removing the "new officer" tag on it... there is nothing new for what now. 1.5 years i dont even remember the last addition.
Add new officers to it that came out in the last 2 years to improve sourcing. With or without increasing the number of shards per pack (prefurably with but i would settle for just more options in the packs to not set the challange to high 😛)

[tulip ether]

Nice Money Grab! Have several days of "Armada" Event to score, then roll out another! Sorry but I have $0.00 to give at this time for much less then face value!

[next haven]

I hope this new maintenance fixes the bugs, the out of balance pvp and ship power, reduces ridiculous milestones on sms, and employs stuff your actual player base has been saying for years...

[short sky]

With the merger what will happen to the Alliance names?

Also, if this takes place during Incursions I'm going to assume that servers 90 & 91 will get a bye reward.

[terse shell]

Jesus the cargo for north star is ass in the beginning stages.

[charred cosmos]

It's ass all the way till the bitter end 😆

[terse shell]

oh great LOL

[tepid bramble]

How does a dev team say it has absolutely no idea how their game works, without saying they don’t know how their game works? 🤨

[rich elm]

so the skin says it EXTENDS the exchange to 4*, but in fact looks like it replaces it ?

[rich elm]

this was funny

[tepid bramble]

But maaaan can it mine fast! (No joke) so it is a great miner to have when lower level and your fleet is at war 🙂

[next haven]

No more rare armada directives as a drop when you start and beat an uncommon armada. Be nice if they quit "fixing" things that help players and fixed things that have caused players to quit.

[finite mural]

They've only ever dropped for g3 armadas, their sourcing for g4 onwards has always been the armada box

[dawn apex]

anyone suggested a faster way of switching ships in dock? maybe long press to bring up ships list and select?

also why not toss in some directives with the prime armada bundle

[next haven]

I could have sworn I got them from g4 madas but you're right. I retract my comment about the rare directives. I do think the rest of my comment stands.

[scenic aspen]

Can we please get more new currencies, there weren't enough in this arc?
Also we need more prime researches, we all love those.
More new ships with their own hostile loop.
More new armadas.
More epic officers only, don't bother with rare officers or below, we don't want them.
More SLB events, but not paired with SMS events because we hate them.
More events that revolve around pack purchases.
Also, more packs in the store to buy, we need more option there.
Thanks.

[pastel path]

https://tenor.com/view/bill-murray-point-hey-hello-gif-21050373

[grim vector]

I would add - More one time use things that would stay as a memory in our inventory. We love remembering past joys while scrolling trough them and trying to find some specific thing there.

[hearty kiln]

I personally thought the Armada event on Valentine's Day was very good. Something like that should come more often. But I also think that there are too few opportunities for the f2p players. let's just take the Heroic Syndicate. With normal means it is no longer possible to get even the first box. Or the current Armada event. Which F2p player has so many epic or rare armada tokens that he can really get far? And there's not even an increase in the rewards - you always get the same number of tokens for the event shop. And they are really manageable. Also as far as the silent enemies are concerned, the jump from my OPS49 to OPS 50 is not possible, because the crates become so expensive that I could no longer reach them, and the 49 crate for the Xindy Armada is a mockery.
All in all, you should get your server and programming problems under control first, before you really keep screwing around with everything, the players become dissatisfied and then stop altogether. I've seen it in the last year how long-time f2p players have given up because they just didn't want to deal with bugs and another ship that you can only buy.

[rain forum]

The video icon is blocking the alliance helps , i have to press it to go into the videos and then come out to see six alliance helps are waiting, maybe its because i play in my phone with a smaller screen but this is really just a phone game , not normally going to play this on my laptop

[rain forum]

Just to add only happens when i have to reload game , which happens quite a lot as it hangs between screen "preparing"

[sullen portal]

Are there any sourcing plans for rare forbidden techs? e.g. from territory season 1 pass?

[next forge]

Again, Scopely, Fix the new Silent zones. Make more 46 zones that only have 46 hostiles. Ive been waiting 10 minutes for a 46 to pop. This is an F grade. You had your chance to make it right this past Tuesday and you Failed!

[sullen portal]

Just kill some 49's and the 46's spawn

[next forge]

Assuming I could even kill just 1 49; which I can't, which is a wasted token. I'm just a newly minted 46 without a Pilum, and a 51 with a level 50 pilum can barely kill 3 49s. That is, if anyone even shows. Assumptions...

Might as well do the same design for Actians, right?

[lavish spruce]

I don’t think Scopely wants people to do these new arms. 5k to start a rare is ridiculous. Plus I am seeing people use multiple starts just to finish a UC.

[barren hazel]

If i wanted 57s, I'd go to a 57 system.

[devout quiver]

event store currency is sorced so badly this month, usually i save up all of it and am able to unlock at least 1 epic officer. Not this time, i can get maybe 20 bp....

[shy oriole]

NS is always with small cargo. It is meant as a very quick miner on small nodes, with a great warp range and speed and decent combat abailities. It allows low level players to launch better armadas.

[neon aspen]

Scopely has been in decline and doing so exponentially. The rewards are laughable, compensation when they screw up garbage. They are still adding new crap when the old crap is not working. To compound their errors they are merging during seasons and alienating their customers. It's bad enough people payed for a season filled with old garbage prizes, They cut it short. Insult to injury scopely!

[woeful nymph]

<@&509690795536941056> We need a half unlock pack for the NX-01

[vale gale]

Any update on incursion exocomp fixes?

[worn marsh]

Isnt there supposed to be a new career advancement SLB today?

[slender monolith]

There is one, IF you qualified. Dr T’ana shards and puffer faced Phlox avatar.

[opaque raft]

So we had a game update yesterday in which hardly any bugs were repaired, but quite some new quantity was added. And now quite some new bugs are popping up.
So where is the promised quality? Why was the update not used to improve the quality of the game, but only made it worse?

[tough summit]

i still have Silents in Q Trial and exception error 200 in Cryptosys

[limber mesa]

you should be seeing some of the quality on Thursday.
apex event should be slightly more bearable, if multi-hosting didn't ruin it.

[wise tide]

No, we don’t need any more packs, why would you encourage them

[opaque raft]

Last apex, AC was still messed up. Armada calls not always visible, and also randomly players’ posts AC dont appear.
Will that issue still be fixed tomorrow?

[sacred garden]

Weird how without upgrading the mining beam my ship has higher strength then when I look at upgrading the beam as seen when looking at upgrading the beam it drops in strength that’s funny and weird lol

[finite mural]

Visual bug with FT equipped, it's not actually changing.

[woeful nymph]

Because the game can't fuction without income, and some people don't mind a partial shortcut. It takes nothing away from the FTP grind once something is realeased to provide a monitary shortcut

[sacred garden]

This mission must be broken, I know for a fact I’ve already refined more then 6 yet only 3 refining I got done on day one shows. Worst mission slash event ever

[finite mural]

take a screenshot of your event store for it

[tepid bramble]

I don’t think I have ever been this ambivalent about a game. Well done 👍

[livid pasture]

Seriously???? We’re in desperate need of a merge (or maybe even two) and we’re FINALLY getting one and you just postponed indefinitely. Come on scopely… 😡

[cosmic knoll]

because some ppl complained it was mid TC season and it would abcdeF their bp points

[livid pasture]

Not hard for scopely to just give a comp then. Or they could’ve merged us two months ago.

[spark acorn]

Welp, some money bag cried booohoo and screwed an entire server thats dying of boredom. Thanks scopely.

[tribal nacelle]

you complain too much... bwahahaha

[cosmic knoll]

probably wanted to see how that regional 60+ XXSLB panned out in terms of whale money spent.

[tribal nacelle]

Can scopely just move the whiners that object to a merge into Farmville and allow the rest of us to move forward with the merge as previously scheduled?

[livid pasture]

I wish…

[silk charm]

probably put off until the end of the TC season pass based on player's extremely strongly objecting to that happening during it

[woeful nymph]

Change the spawn rates or split the Silent Systems. This is not fun

[woven spear]

There were 3 missions to complete and 3 systems that required you to mine 1 item from each, this totals your 6 and you will complete this mission.

[weary elm]

Thank you for delaying the server merger (hopefully until after TC season). 🙏🏻

[timid steppe]

Yes, thank you for delaying the merge. The extra time will allow us to work things out with the other server and having it timed with the next TC Season will be the perfect time to merge us.

[gleaming wedge]

I wish there was a way to deal with "smart" bullies in this game. Someone who keeps harassing you over and over, never letting you enjoy the game but also never sending you messages that would get you into trouble. I mean an answer that doesn't require spending huge sims of money. Sometimes I feel this game is a bully simulator.

[sacred garden]

I’ve done the event store refining since this stupid event /mission crap came out I’ve already refined more then six different times since I got this stupid mission/event and it has not changed from the initial 3 I refined though I have already done over 9

[finite mural]

There's 3 missions that give items, and 3 planets to mine that gives items

[analog tartan]

a positive note to scopely: thank you for shorter spawn rates on armadas

[sacred garden]

Despite refining 3 times today and yesterday this hasn’t moved one bit completely stupid worse mission/event ever

[finite mural]

did you do the 3 missions, and mine the 3 planets?

#1042855078761091072 everything is right there on where to go and what to do

[sacred garden]

There an order to these missions? I can’t get them I go to the systems yet they all are greyed out. What gives? I finally managed to get that other stupid mission/event crap done and now can’t even accept the missions that come after what a waist and pain in the butt for my time!

[finite mural]

check your mission list and archived missions

[sacred garden]

Nothing so I guess I’m screwed on all the rest of phlox’s missions

Never claimed any of these missions after completing the 6 refining of phlox’s now that I have completed that all these are claiming I claimed them yet I never did and only missions I have are all ones I already had no new missions worthless freaken broken event missions

Yes I just finished the stupid one to mine and refine went to do these others and I can’t even get them

[lime socket]

If you completed Phlox’s mission to refine 6 critters, you’ve already finished the 3 missions

[jaunty prism]

Scopely logic: Every stupid hostile you attack needs to have a big blaring annoying siren.
Also scopely logic: Getting your station attacked should make no sound at all 🧠

[cursive vessel]

give us this for everything please!

[crystal dew]

Just ignore them completely. Hard to believe anyone is going to target you relentlessly for a long duration of time unless you are doing something to stimulate their interest.

[glacial spruce]

Believe it or not, there are some mentally deficient people out there and it only takes one to become real pain on a server. We've been through several on 57. Though not in the last 2 years... fortunately.

[weary burrow]

I am guessing this is really old and has just not been taking down? The get Multipasic Credits thing

[kind star]

I ask again, why do level 57 players have the same requirements for the new Armada chests as a level 70 player? 12.8m for a chest means you need at least 6-7 56 Armadas. While a player with a g6 ship only needs one armada because he can go much further with his ships. A level 56 also only needs about half as many armadas! Level 51 only needs one armada? Does this pathetic company scopely really believe that this is fair? Why does every new content in 2024 have to be frustrating? And bunglingly programmed like ever. 2024 really is the height of failure from scopely. Nothing - really nothing that has been added is good.

[pale garnet]

a 14min wait for a silent lv41 battleship is a bit out of order, the rest are respawning a lot quicker than

[lost beacon]

You should see the level 46 to 49 system, no one can kill a 49 but there's only ever a few 46s to start then you have over a 30min wait for another 46 to spawn as the system is full of the 49s

[cold yoke]

Are you guys going to fix anything you've said you would? Like ever? Still getting silent xindi in q trials. How hard is it to just put standard interceptor enemies in the interceptor mission selection. But no, a way overpowered explorer in the interceptor tab. I guess you are all too busy making AI chat bot gc advertisements and videos that will end up linking to a scopely youtube channel to generate view hits 🤦‍♂️

[kind star]

Scopely gives a big BS on what bothers us. They will make this clear every week, especially in 2024. Promises are almost never kept. The videos are getting worse at a very low level. When they fix bugs or things that were simply - as almost always - poorly programmed, after a few weeks they throw primes at your feet that are supposed to fix it. Scopely delivers such poor quality that it's hard to believe. Incompetence is their standard.

[sand bear]

3 days in a row of getting the xindi gun. Not exactly a fun mechanic at all. I know what you all were going for, but could you lower the odds so we can at least continue progression of one of the countless grind loops? And lower the odds without needing to pay for a prime or officer?

[undone hemlock]

https://tenor.com/view/hmmm-thinking-confused-gif-14450462

[neat pier]

Xindi Armadas.
How can I out this and be constructive.
I am averaging about 100k per armada. With a 300k starter chest. (Based on 7 players sharing 700k loot evenly with no loot officers as armada abilities need officers to counter them).
1 start per week. If I take part in a 7 x7 run I would have 1m a week.
Which means I will start a rare in 42 weeks.
1 a year is definitely lower Quantity and I like the armada abilities. Could the UC armada loot be increased or the chest cost be revisited?

[summer thicket]

The cooldown on the medical sample refine is stupid

[woeful rapids]

You guys don't learn do you... 6 57 Xindi armadas completed, not even got 1/3rd of what is needed for a single pull... please, PLEASE hire someone who is actually capable of simple maths, it's beyond me how this got past any form of beta testing (lol, pretty sure Scopely don't test anything except if the online store is working)

[sharp axle]

Stop moaning about the xindi armadas, and just ignore them completely. When noone touches them, buys directives for them, or refines the rewards, and its a dead feature, maybe scopely will come to their senses and ACTUALLY start to live up to their better quality promise. Coz, atm, noone is seeing any quality at all for the year 2024.

[wild gate]

Of course there's quality. All the quality of life improvement we wanted have been added into the game........ Behind paid Primes

[tulip cosmos]

So I was last in here Over an hour ago and there were 46 ships of different Kinds I come back Now and there was Only 1 46 Explorer and Now I am Screwed my Buff will run out and nothing I can Kill. It's been how long now and nothing has been done. To change the Spawn Rates or make sure there are at least say 3 of each type at both 46 and 49..........

[junior sierra]

I agree, not fun. Add this to hours of grinding xindi. Still at crit floor 3. Very bad design for low spenders and frankly everyone.

[cosmic knoll]

THIS is what eclipse armadas should of been like a year ago

[dense river]

where can you see how much shards you need to unlock the temporal artifacts?

[junior sierra]

artifact gallery

[wind shell]

Honestly so many choices seem setup to generate grief, either with other players or at the game, bummer the game doesn't include much in the way of enjoyment.

EA appreciates your taking a path of pride and accomplishment, especially for the credit card warriors

[opaque raft]

Why is this notification double? An ‘as intended’ ‘improvement’? Or just another scopely incompetence

[brittle aspen]

Is the Borg Cube worth getting ??

[split totem]

Pls. Work on the Lags....today in the morning, I was HAPPY that I only need 3 Restarts of the Game, to complete Daylies...
And as I had my experience with Scopely now: Be aware!! That "HAPPY" was ment ironically...

[cosmic idol]

The grind is terrible. The beam sucks unless you spend money on a pack to improve it. It's level locked and pretty much useless unless you get it to higher tiers (8 or 9 plus), which requires you to pump lots of resources into levelling the appropriate faction ships to unlock the cube tiers. I consider the money I spent on the ship to be a complete waste, as it sits unused until I can level my corvus to open two more cube tiers. That said, I see ops 60+ whales one shotting ships with their double power beams, so, if you are a whale, it can be quite fun. IMHO this ship was a complete money grab and Scopely misrepresented the value of this ship for everyone but whales.

[wind shell]

Literally had a whale (ops 62) use the beam for Stella Armada denial on me twice... But, yes the beam needed a nerf for punch up

[cedar crescent]

Er Starbase anyone?!?

[ripe thicket]

@tacit obsidian @royal solar can we please have specialty ships, that can't be scrapped, not count against the total number of ships we can have in our hanger. I like to collect and build one of each and I am quickly running our of room I have 2 vidars and a talios and a couple duplicates of the other specialty ships that I can't do anything with.

[junior sierra]

if you want one of the most booring loops in history and a ship thats not great till g5 and a monster in g6.... then yes

[wintry crag]

What is the point of silent hostiles for ops39? I’m maxed pretty much and lucky if I can kill one in 3! 🤬

[sacred garden]

I don’t see how anyone at my lvl can beat these. Using one of the suggested crews , which is the only crew set listed I found that I have all of and I can’t even beat one of the lowest of these. Combat techs are all maxed for lvl. Nice going scopley for making an enemy no one can really beat at mid forties or lower hell xindi was bad enough

[mild hemlock]

You need to put Severus as captain, not Chavnek.

[sacred garden]

That’s kinda stupid since epic is better then unc

[mild hemlock]

You need his captain ability.
When you are burning he strips hull from the opponent. With max synergy it’s 20%, so it will be taken down in 5 rounds max.

[sacred garden]

I’ve played every kinda game out there like this and that these games are based off and this games entire combat system just doesn’t make any since. Were weak officers can beat strong enemies that maxed out officers can’t even scratch what total bs nonsense. I thought the Star Trek role playing game had some fudged up rules , but its rules are more straightforward then this game

[stark lintel]

The rarity of the officer does not make them better in every situation, you have to look at the abilities and what they do.
Try Snw Spock as Captain with Trip & Chang.

[sacred garden]

This game I have to say in the words of Spock is highly illogical

[dry nest]

Abilities!

[sacred garden]

Never played a game that puts abilities first and foremost those were always calculated in afterwards not put as the main thing were strengths defense and health don’t even matter. Most illogical game ever.

[dry nest]

You know some officer abilities play into those 3 cores you just mentioned. Ops 44

[mild fulcrum]

Yet you’re here everyday to whine about how much you don’t like it. Most illogical.

[limber mesa]

this game uses similar logic to trading card games.
while rarer and stronger cards/officers are typically better, some combinations of weaker cards/officers can interact(often unintentionally, sometimes intentionally) in very effective ways making them better than cards/officers with a strong base but no interactions.

[stark lintel]

Abilities are always important in every game. Yes rare and epic officers have higher core stats (health/defense/attack) but as with every game, stats can be outdone by good abilities and it just so happens some common/uncommon and rare officers have better abilities than some Epics. Not that hard to understand really.

[sacred garden]

Yes but not put as the priority first and foremost . They have always in every game been factored in after all the other stuff as a bonus not as main feature

[stark lintel]

Ok, but even if that’s true, that’s not the case here. Sooner you accept that and focus on abilities rather than if something is green, blue or purple, the easier time you’ll have.

[sacred garden]

I’ll be honest I strangely like the game, but it’s getting harder and harder to stay invested in playing the game . All this grinding all day and getting nowhere saps all the little fun out of the game . New features and stuff is nice but all the grinding for mere pennies in rewards sucks the fun and enjoyment out of the game . Very few elements of the game are still enjoyable. Used to love doing armadas now only enjoy doing a few others are more of a drag then enjoyable. Saying you’re going to fix the dredge of grind and then throwing in even more stuff that takes even longer to grind ain’t fixing the dreaded grind. It’s supposed to be fun not a drag . Play your game as free to play and you’ll see your killing the fun

[humble furnace]

I’m ops 44 just like and use this crew on my T7 valdore. With Metreon FT. I can get 6-8K loot per trip (2 trips in total for 12K daily pull)

[finite mural]

should have paris below deck and put tucker in his place

[humble furnace]

You keep telling me that and I keep mentioning that doesn’t work for me. Proof the crew I use works (zero buffs applied)

Works like a charm 🤔 who would figure that 😂

[lime socket]

Check out Torres in place of Paris as well if you haven’t already

[humble furnace]

Even worked against triangle 😂…. Ok I was not expecting that was trying to blow up my ship ☺️…. @lime socket took out Paris and slotted Torres. Just as good as Paris

[lime socket]

Ok doesn’t seem to make any difference in your case

[humble furnace]

Different crews work for different players, you gotta take into account: research/crew level/ship lvl/syn lvl etc. plus. FT used etc.

Alliance members used the crew I use and they died pretty fast on 1-3 kills 🤔🙃

[ornate rose]

What have been some of the most common complaints? Grinds in game....# of different currencies....sheer amount + time it takes to do refines daily. So u add more to each one each arc this year so far. U had no intentions of doing quality over quantity and it shows.

[dense prawn]

as a ship, not really, no. the research is decent though

[finite mural]

Cube is weak til g5-g6+ then it really shines, the research is good

[warm gulch]

silent is differen for everyone i think
i usethe follow crew against 46, loot 11k per turn

[cosmic basin]

Silent hostiles system lvl 46 - 49 when are the lvl 46 going in system cant be bothered to sit about waiting 10mins for lvl 46 show up wasted fortified this game is so pathetic thinking of leaving

[slender monolith]

With a bit more, you can get more loot or hit higher when the time comes…

[humble furnace]

Has anyone tested the new artefact with the cube do you no? Not sure it would benefit g3 players, but think for g4 players hopefully it’s a big improvement. (I’m going for it after the syn one)

[finite mural]

would need quite a few levels in the artifact for it to be any use

[cold yoke]

How hard is it to make the hostile recycling be 50/50 in the silent xindi systems? It's absolutely frustrating and frankly causing me to completely ignore a mechanic when silent systems have one or two actual killable targets because that's all people can hit (well worth hitting because power difference vs loot increase is basically worthless). Two hours to do a run is basically making silents about as useful as doing old Borg madas, starbase hits, swarm madas, etc. Another useless function scopely 👏

[humble furnace]

With a bit more of which? Hit higher? I’m ops 44 the refine is ops 41-45. I cannot hit higher if I wanted to the 41/44 hostiles only ones dropping the 4* UC loot 🤔 not sure what you mean? Plus 2 tokens a day and complete in 2 trips is perfect 👌 it’s basically no different then Borg or Mantis grind (plus from what I am aware off regardless of ops the daily max pull is always 12K) so going up ops is not beneficial at all as the rewards are the exactly the same but the credits/mats required to pull 12K change and are harder to get (higher loot is useless to me as I cannot spend it)

[slender monolith]

You’re close to mine, and i can hit 41/44s for more loot, but can also hit 46s for when i get to Ops 46, currently 45.

[humble furnace]

46 require rare parts. And I am hitting 41/44? So still not sure what you mean. My screenshots above prove I’m hitting 41 and 44 🤔 just to note also when you go 46 that UC loot your collecting becomes useless

[slender monolith]

Not wildly different in crews and power, just means you’re on to a good thing, either that or we’re both overpowered somehow lol. I only tried 46s because i wanted to make sure i could still gather loot without needing a G4 rare or some other strategy.

[humble furnace]

Hitting 46 could you get 12K in 2 trips with this current setup? Without need for new ship. I was gonna jump straight to 46 this month and get pilum to T5 straight out of dock. But then they released silent hostiles and loads of ops 46 in my alliance advice they can barely kill 1. So figured nah I’m waiting till unlock the artefacts at lvl 1 before jumping.

[slender monolith]

I killed 11 before going boom, all 3 types, loot was 6590, i think my loot for the 41/44s is higher, pretty sure it’s more than 12k in 2 runs.

[humble furnace]

6590 is pretty good for 1 trip, can do in 2 trips for your daily . More loot just reduces amount of trips. Did 3 trips yesterday for 21.5K total one of those was just me trying to blow up my ship because I was bored 😂 that’s when I realised combat triangle makes no difference here.

[rotund tulip]

The in-game chat has been swallowing messages in the Allianz Chat for 1.5 years. It's a total disgrace that this hasn't been fixed yet. In my alliance we regulate Armada slots through the in-game chat. It's just unbelievable that friendships are destroyed there just because of a chat that doesn't work.

[silk charm]

the game seems to most commonly do this when the messages are identical, i.e. "omw". If you switch to more specific callouts, this problem seems to largely not occur; my alliance does it with the first letter or two of someone's name and that also helps to track with multiple concurrent armadas, as a bonus.

[junior sierra]

at T5 you should be fine. Looks like you're way better off than most. If I was in your shoes I'd bank a bit up.

[silk charm]

the banking up that's possible would be on tokens if you can get ahead enough on the uncommon; at 46 it swaps from uncommon to rare 4* stuff to refine.

But I also agree, a good t5 pilum should be able to hit silents fine.

[junior sierra]

Ah, does it swap at 50/51 as well?

[humble furnace]

😯 looks I’m going 46 next month then 💪 gonna wait for the treasury

[silk charm]

from this i believe at 51

[lime socket]

One run with no boosts, so I’m all set for 51 😁

[unique forge]

@lime socket what was your under deck ?

[unkempt goblet]

The lag on 88 is the worst I've seen it in weeks. I came to check when the one maintenance thing was going on, but it wasn't today. Anyone else with just intense lag?

[unique forge]

This morning was bad this morning on S8 but it seems to be cleared up now

[exotic cloak]

Was gonna give some feedback but then i realised i cba with another stfc discord ban 😂

[grave hawk]

So I guess we're never going to get that incursions exo fixed huh? @tacit obsidian <@&509690795536941056>

[tidal notch]

Both Eco and myself have been following up on the exo issue. Both to get it fixed and hopefully have the loot exos run early to make up for last incursions. Nothing official yet, but we are following up on this.

[carmine charm]

Silent systems should be adjusted to have a guaranteed spread of level range and types or preferably just only have 1 level of reds, the slightly higher amount of loot/red doesn't compensate for the difficulty difference

[serene dragon]

Exo-Comp Factory Unlock???? Already have this building, why do we get another key to unlock it???

[west thunder]

Same question. We're getting asked that a lot on my server. 🤷‍♂️

[burnt gazelle]

🤬 dangit, Scopes, you've been communicating so well this month and now you've dropped two compensation chests on us for seemingly no reason. WTH?

Edited to add: I see above there's something about exos from the incursions but can't tell if the comps were for that. Regardless, this channel is absolutely NOT how critical details should be shared with the community.

[west thunder]

"We've improved our communication! We hired another good community manager!" but we don't tell THEM anything...

[burnt gazelle]

I was sincerely, REALLY pleased by the comms so far this month

[dense river]

thank you

[exotic bison]

Just curious about this one. I have finished my battlepass every day but during the last maintenance the battlepass didn't gave enough point that day to open the next chest in the battlepass, missed exacly this 5K points. My question is how will scopely correct this error?

[junior sierra]

i think @vale wasp ? posts all the points somewhere. I have the same points as you on overflow [ with todays completion ]

[slender monolith]

thats just the amount it should be, apparently. the total points, 315k, was 325k earlier, with 2 more days to go. note, every day does not have to complete an overflow milestone.

[exotic bison]

I just hope we will get enough points in 2 days to finish that event 😑

[slender monolith]

2 days, 32.5k left, that makes one 17.5k and one 15k event

[stiff juniper]

@tacit obsidian thanks for the exocomp factory key most of us didn't need. We've all been waiting for the level 2 key so we can get beyond level 51!

[hot monolith]

Next lvl key please, asking for a friend. 🖖

[fluid crystal]

I think scopely never developed any of that code so there isn't a "next level" which is why that token was never made available

[finite mural]

It's a placeholder for now, like the void configuration token

[slow vector]

Following the main mission chain, all of the missions requiring a certain Ops level prior to this are named with the same clear convention of 'Operations 49' etc. Except for this one. So if you're looking at the chain on STFC.space it looks like you're clear to continue doing the chain after ops 49 as long as you have the warp range. I was trying to get up to Interlude to unlock more Klingon missions but ran into this and feel like I wasted my time. Please change this mission name to match the others

Also it seems a bit weird that it's ops 51 but a mission a few further down the chain requires r&d 50, then Interlude itself requires research that only needs ops 50...so any chance of changing horizons of limitation to only require ops 50?

[nova sierra]

Posted earlier in my alliance chat:

There is an old adage that dates back to when I was working construction, about 40 years ago. You can have it done fast, you can have it done cheap, and you can have it done right. Pick two. Now, I work in IT, and it's the exact same way. I know we like to rag on the programmers, but it's their management that is picking which two, and you can guess which two they're picking. This is not a programming problem, it's a mangement problem.

[cursive gale]

That got me as well at one point. What I recall is there are two chains, one where it just says the building and what level, then the other is named missions that sometimes has a mission requiring research or a building to proceed

[vale wasp]

I'd post that on your server's discord.

#⭐-official-announcements message
Don't worry about it. In current lags no one will notice if it's even worse.

[lime rose]

Really Scopely? You want to give me a heart attack waking up with a red alert?? For a moment I thought my shield somehow dropped and I got a lot to lose if so.

[tight silo]

Only thing that beats a nice coffee to wake up in the morning is an adrenalin rush 😜

[eternal spear]

There's a similar one for engineers. Quality, quantity, cost. Pick two.

[glacial spruce]

We know which 2 Scopely chose. 😋

[harsh thunder]

You get alerts?

This is another weekend in which I will not spend a single gas, crystal or ore. Pholx is garbage. This game is becoming garbage.

[pale drift]

you would think with scopley merging servers it would tell them that their constent money push and making events that require a $50 or more cash store purchase to complete. the stupidly priced stuff and game issues they would realize players are leaving in droves. for better more stable, playable, and even with subscription games like ESO,WOW,and others that dont have things starting at $50-$100. enjoyable games. they would change their greedy ways and make this game enjoyable and playable again

[dense reef]

I am beyond disappointed with scopely . People are quitting left and right due the amount of stupid content and money push . I myself only due what I can and don't worry about the stupid stuff . Scopely will not longer get my $$$ for idiotic crap !!!

[pale drift]

i totally agree. i mean even blizzard doesnt expect you to pay $100 for things. and their the one who started the pay platforms. it would be different if the game was more stable as well as not forming the game arround the idiots who put thousands in the game and then cant understand how to play due to not going through the process of working towards things. plus Blizzard ticked off the player base enough they left and almost killed blizzard. take a hint scopley or the same will happpen with STFC

[vapid bough]

I agree i will only play for free.only reason i keep going now is to try and grow as much as i can for free then cause chaos on my server before i quit

[pale drift]

ive been putting $40 a month in on the lower tier of the wave and main bp since i already grinded out the main event for the top tier. however that may stop they keep it up. instead of fixing issues they bog the game down more with things like the new videos under you profile when you click it. no one cares about that. thats what YouTube is for and most of us gamers already follow and use their videos to help us in our games.

[vapid bough]

They decided to go with quantity garbage than quality game fixes/content

[wary fjord]

I could regale you with stories on Blizzard. I started an internal discussion there circa 2012 pushing for cheap server services (transfers, faction changes etc) that garnered huge amounts of internal support in the wake of Eve Online's monocle gate incident but was ultimately shot down by the executive team

[woeful nymph]

Stilll looking for a half NX-01 unlock pack...

[vapid bough]

Stupid how they didn’t put any bp in the event store

[pale drift]

well scopley needs to take notice of how the player base left and almost killed their game line. thats why some of WOW's expansions took so long to release. and now in GC they post Admin messages about events that require you to pay for a item to complete. their as bad as drug dealers and cartels! lol maybe we should all boycott for 3 months and show them what it feels like to tick off the player base like Blizzard learned the hard way due to NOT Listening to them

[humble lotus]

Been playing since covid lockdown and have to say I’m considering leaving and playing console games again. Not only that I get more fun waxing

[vapid bough]

I get more fun from idle games as you can put them down and pick it back up without a massive grind to catch up

[cosmic knoll]

thats coming right after the Mantis Comp ....

[midnight coral]

Still no Chance. Great content scopley
any suggestions from the community? tested a lot, but nothings workds good... even severus and parris UD is not working very well (3 hostiles)

[woeful nymph]

For all that’s good and holy…split the dam silent hostile zones. I can’t kill 53’s with a T8 Tribune….. <@&509690795536941056> This is not fun or engaging

It's fun sitting in the zone waiting for the 53's to de-spawn in hopes a 51 spawns #sarcasm

[woeful rapids]

Xindi armadas dead content within a week of release, rofl... whoever designed those is hopefully looking for a new job 💩

[cosmic knoll]

this doesnt help you?
I know a lot of ppl like Jayneway C + doc/blt + eData
I guess pox replaces snw spock?

[woeful nymph]

Try Janeway, phlox, e-data. It lets me kill the 51's and get about 5k loot per run unbuffed...when my 51's spawn (hugh, paris, b'elena, dr, grush under deck)

[woeful rapids]

idk what that crew is supposed to be doing, try e-pic/e-data/tucker, hugh & tom paris below deck... a lot of this is dependent on your crew tiers and research, if your data isn't at least t2 I wouldn't bother trying this crew though... T3 ideally

[woeful nymph]

Just did this, no buffs

[molten inlet]

You are level 52 with access to research folks dont have below 50 or at my level, especially as a 40 unable to kill a single silent enemy

i tried to post a feedback about the difficulty of the game as its no longer enjoyable for F2P with the latest new content, and the server blocked the comment....

[woeful nymph]

Ironically. Someone ops 44-45, 47 or 49 are in a far better position then anyone at 39-42 or 50-52 regardless of being FTP or not. The bracketing of hostiles for early g4 and g5 is the primary issue

[molten inlet]

i noticed this with the xindi hostiles when they released that addendium... too much of a jump in power between the original and next system. and now this issue with the silent enemy

[sand notch]

stfc would have stolen the show if 2x nx01's got together like they did in the series, instead the uss constitution was just a monetised skin.
Imagine the graphics of 2 ships supporting each other like nx01 enterprise and constitution.... literally working as one in parallel

[woeful nymph]

My ops 49 friend pulls 15k Silent loot per run regularly with his t10 newton. Here I am barely pulling 5k with a T8.5 Tribune

[midnight coral]

can try, but i dont think this will be a good thing. My Shield is done in round 4, even with maxed mitigation. And janeway will speedup my shield death x)

[finite mural]

the difference between the g4 silent and the g5 silent are pretty big though, hell the difference between the lowest level and the highest level in the system is redonkulous

[molten inlet]

yeah i cant get past round 4 no matter what i do

[lime socket]

I’m using that crew on a g4 rare and getting 7k or so loot per run. If your rare is big enough to keep shields up the loot bonus helps a lot.

[woeful nymph]

Yeah, the 40% loot bonus helps. I can't really toss any g4 into my pilum at this point

[sonic valve]

Regardless how hard the silent are, the main buzz kill with silent is the spawn rates. Regardless if you can kill em or not. We shouldn't have to wait so long for 1 lower lvl hostile to spawn. Xindi despawn and respawn much quicker. Change it

[dusty portal]

The problem with spawning is they designed it so those who can kill the higher level spawn of the two that spawn have no use for them. Anyone who can kill 49s has no interest in them, so they don’t go to the 46 49 system. Leaves everyone else in the system trying to get 46s. With no 49s hunted. 46s barely spawn

[nova sierra]

If you choose a level to hang out at for a while, it is casual. I'm hanging out at level 35, and it's a good spot to be in. I typically do pretty well in SLBs when I choose to participate, I ignore events and arcs that I can't really compete in because they're not beneficial to me, or the brackets are too wide, and I do my dailies and accumulate mats and resources until I I can use them for real benefit. Some days, I'm done with events in 20 minutes or less. Sometimes, it takes an hour or two of casual gameplay. Either way, It's still fun for me because I'm not too concerned with advancing levels before I've completed most of what I need to do to be the strongest I can be at my current level.

[tropic crown]

Can you guys synchronize the event timers already.

[dusty portal]

Agree they managed to do so during the last move to standard time.

[humble furnace]

7 days to go 31st March everything should be in sync

[vapid bough]

I do the same except i can manage to get most events done. Only ones I don’t bother with is the ranked ones as there is always a cash spender on my server hitting top ranks

[sacred garden]

This makes no since first attempt I do more damage dropping it down to halfway before I lose with only explorer damage 200% exocomp added. The second attempt same crew same initial exocomp plus 3 more and I do far less? That ain’t right I should’ve done more since I also had another damage exocomp and officer stat bonus and officer health yet instead of me giving more damage I took more that ain’t right or fair

[exotic tangle]

This silent hostile events is stupid the spawn rate of the hostiles is too low half our sever is in one system trying to kill the one level….

[austere wasp]

Your crew setup is way off….please explain what do you think you will get with borg crew on hostile

[quick field]

great that the bar is set so High in silent hostile, that we have no chance of finishing, because all the higher players take the 46’s😡

[fossil bolt]

Waves seem to be broken again, you need to restart to see all players, my ship disappeared, hostiles couldn’t be targeted…..

[cosmic knoll]

1: crits, you probably got crit hit in second, leading to a faster death.
2: voyager is naff, its main dmg is in the 3rd round
3: pmc would of been better than that crew

[wary tendon]

I don’t understand why you need to limit the number of officer shards, ship BP etc that can be purchased in the event store with Event currency. We earned the currency, let us spend as much as we want on the items we want. Is this just a way to make FTP player spend money?

[cosmic knoll]

Scopely dont believe in catch-up for free, they want you to catch-up with cash

[lime socket]

Pmc wouldn’t be better. At least he has mitigation with his crew if nothing else. It’s a mission hostile.

[lime socket]

Run 5 Marcus Khan

[dense river]

at what lvl ops can you refine rare ship parts in the ship parts refinery?

[carmine charm]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1nKsUSGGTa0Q2GW4YeAmiQVOiHSJnmfyu54E0Y9n_keg/edit#gid=495226859 has an overview of what you get per ops

[outer jolt]

S95 Server Lag getting Massive

[tropic crown]

No event with credits today? This by far has been the worst arc for the event stores. Terrible selection and even worse credit payouts for event. Scopley said they could do better not that they would.

[lusty orchid]

Fixed it for you. "This by far has been the worst arc, full stop"

[acoustic cloud]

Try using a better crew?

[sacred garden]

Kindly fix your connection issues on iOS , getting fed up with being kicked out every 5 minutes just to have trouble getting back into the game.

[oblique hawk]

@tacit obsidian we want faction hunt 🙂

[pale socket]

Fix the rare anomaly node respawn rate, please

[solemn forum]

Still having the issue with nodes showing to be depleted while my ship is still showing even over 2 minutes more of mining.

[wary tendon]

This was a horrible arc. I feel like more and more this is geared to payers not players

[pale drift]

they might as well make it a Subscription based game which might actually improve it lol

[sacred garden]

Why the heck I can have over 200 trial bells from upgrading that tech and not collect my free trial bells and when I’m ready to collect my trial bells I can no longer collect them?

[finite mural]

because there's a limit to the amount you can carry at a time, anything over that limit gets converted to speed ups with the daily claim, those earned from tier ups, trials and battlepasses can surpass that limit, but it doesn't change what you can claim.

[carmine charm]

for all we mock scopely I don't doubt their monetization skills and I'm sure they considered and determined this earns them more money by drawing in more players to see who can be contributed in 5 digits a year spending whales

[torpid cargo]

You still did pretty good against a hostile considering you’re basically using an armada crew.

[fallen wasp]

Scopely has got to do some thing about the soul crushing grinds. I’m the admiral of an alliance on 69. I am losing my third player in a month because they just aren’t having fun. Having to spend an hour to grind out everything they need just to complete all of the daily objectives. I encourage them to just play for the time they want and not worry about objectives every day, but they see that they are going to get left behind unless they spend money and grind. I know the $60 a month that they were getting from these three players doesn’t mean a lot to them, but I’m only one alliance. Scopely, you’re killing the desire to play

[warm gulch]

silents shold be separate... waiting for 1 lv46 is rediculess! i think thats the same in all other systems.

[dusty portal]

The worst part about grinding out milestones is it only gets worse the higher you go. Even hitting higher level reds isn’t enough to compensate for the increased points requirements. So the time it consumes only gets worse imo.

[fallen wasp]

I believe this is just to encourage people to pay a little extra to get the things they would've have tried to grind out instead. Sadly it's just causing people to go play a game without the time sink

[dusty portal]

Pay a little extra? I think it’s pay alot bc you are passing on alot of sms loot if you had to buy it instead. Even paying for ships doesn’t solve the issue because you still have to grind out ever increasing milestones.

[grave hawk]

So concludes the most lackluster, unfun arc (and event store) in the 2 years and 3 months that I have played.

[dusty portal]

Stfc makes me long for the days of RPGs where powering up your characters made many aspects of the game easier. Being rewarded for the time you put in grinding for character xp killing monsters. Working up to the various boss battles.

[torpid cargo]

I would still say that it was far better than Lower Decks Two's second month and It still feels better than the anniversary month did.

[crystal swallow]

We don't need new content. We have enough content in this game already and so much to do here.

There's so much you guys can do here like sisko X Picard. Or snw X lower decks. Or a post voyager return ( what happened to them)? Or heck who doesn't need a bigger helmet with pakleds vs ferengi. There's so much you can do with the existing characters, ships, planets and so on.

[warm crystal]

So what is the deal with the events still an hour apart?

[torpid cargo]

I want an event next month that mixes the worst content together for something great. Here is what I'm envisioning, Scopley. I want a Starbase assault, mixed with formation armadas, set in a wave defense system all set on top of a Mega Cube armada. You start the Mega cube (which has three separate legs), which has a go home gun that fires every round, once the armada assault starts, then the wave defense starts while your armada assault count down timer is going, and the wave defense is filled with Xidndi Aquatics and Silent Hostiles only. Prize for winning is Shaped Memory Alloy. And make a 100 level prime for it that will add a "5%" damage boost per level. ehh........

[charred ravine]

hurts my efficiency OCD

[dusty portal]

You forgot the cube one that calls on players to run a solo just to get an auto activating buff, because who doesn’t love jumping through hoops and cat herding alliance members

[slender monolith]

You don’t need the sphere buff to do the expansion cube, but you might need to scale back your choice of target.

[dusty portal]

It should just be a consumable you activate when you want to use it. Just like the consumables we have in inventory. A loot drop when you beat a soloborg so you’re not having to coordinate with other players who want the buff before joining the group ones.

[slender monolith]

Yea, it is a bit naff having to actually talk to people and organise a bit, not everyone seems to be able to handle that. Even if you could only have one, that everyone then activated before warping out, it would be better.

[exotic depot]

No officers in the treasury?? Guess I will wait for the next one 😅

[dusty portal]

It’s not about talking to people. It’s the fact that not everyone lives online in this game and has ample free game time to participate, and finding people who are interested when you happen to be interested is another variable. Having the consumable in your inventory would make things easier

[stark lintel]

The new 2nd treasury per month has not had officers since they recently started doing them. Ship parts are the draw for these ones apparently.

[oak bone]

Complete garbage in this treasury, a rip off for anyone who opens it

[exotic depot]

Not much of a draw by looking at it 😅....didn't notice cos I don't buy the treasury. Just wait till I can get a free one

[dusty portal]

I think this is the third post arc ship parts no officer shards treasury event. I prefer the one that has shards. I suspect there must be people buying the part one or Scopely wouldn’t keep selling them. At the end of the day, use your free or bought rods on the version you want

[stark lintel]

So don’t open it. Some people like it, some don’t. I never said it was good. lol. It’s another place for Scopely to rope in spenders. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[pulsar loom]

Dang. Gonna miss using my favorite emote.

[sinful walrus]

Seems funny that Eco changing jobs gets a bigger announcement than news about the monthly arc or events

[kind minnow]

scopely is well aware of this issue from launch. but it has fallen on deaf ears.. in the 55/57 system u run out of 55's to hit pretty fast ,, and the sanctus that just flew by is gonna hit those as well .. thats how bad it is lol

[nova latch]

Any word on when faction hunt is back?

[jaunty prism]

Are we ever going to make Monday not "You will never look away from the game" day? I can't be the only one that absolutely detests lat rush.

[rich elm]

did you guys "miss" the officers shards in the treasury ? /s

[limber mesa]

this is the half month treasury, focuses on ship parts instead of crew.
in 2 weeks there will be a regular treasury with officers.

[torpid cargo]

Oh same here....I was actually shocked to find out that there are people out there that like the event....look forward to it even.

[wind shell]

Especially with how lacking the rewards are for the effort

[tame spade]

So I see Scopely still doesn’t know that Saturdays exist when it comes to incursions…..

You’d think they’d be more likely to do it on Saturdays when more people could play when they are not working, thus=more money from the whales.

Apparantly not…

[glacial spruce]

I see we have another incursion on the 5th. So does that mean the exocomp issue has been fixed? Or are we not getting thise during incursions anymore? If it has been fixed, what happened to our promised compensation from the last incursion?

[abstract zealot]

the communication has been MUCH improved this month.

[junior sierra]

Dear Overloards. I want to remind you the last few grinds. Silent, Xindi and Borg Cube are kinda of the most hated to date in game. Surprisingly they are disliked for a couple different reasons. Please keep this in mind for future game plans. Dont forget intro ramps into future/new content and think about how it effects players at multiple levels please - thanks.

[dusty portal]

If you’re not going to give us faction hunt anymore. You need to give us the rewards from it in other forms. Last month you ran a voyager event that gave us an opportunity to earn faction credits. But there needs to be something for the epic recruit tokens, xp and mats

[stark lintel]

@tidal notch Just out of curiosity, are there any current discussions on updating the bonus refinery contents? They are extremely outdated, especially after more recent updates to the normal refinery payouts. They aren’t worth wasting materials on in their current state.

[tidal notch]

I haven't heard any plans to update them.

[queen osprey]

Anyone else having issues activating titan abilities?

[ornate pecan]

For the love of GOD a LEVEL 53 Should not Open the treasury and find a bunch of 3* Fricking MATS. And not a SINGLE FRICKING EPIC G5. SERIOUSLY?

[half roost]

Are you f2p or haven't bought any rods?

[ornate pecan]

bought several , typically i spend between $300-$500 this month i spent close to $800. Regardless of what i spent, a 53 should not be getting 3* mats, and right now the only sourcing is really the Ex Borg G5 Pack and G5 Armadas for EPIC materials.

[vivid raft]

See this video for a possible answer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2A8Q5PRKOc

[junior sierra]

wonder why we have never seen a loot algorithm .............

[torpid kelp]

has scopely ever thought about creating a kind of marketplace where players can exchange blueprints for ships / 3* or 4* uc/rare/epic ress? it would also be really cool if you could scrap northcut, vorcha and corvus, i don't use them at all anymore✌️

[tepid bramble]

We know why. If they showed us that two things would come from it, 1) folks would stop spending, except the those that are really not worried about money…2) possible law suits for extreme false claims about this game not being a gambling sim.

[junior sierra]

Where is ripper 😂

[wise kelp]

The silent hostile sections need a revamp. Fog of war, tokens (on top of refinery cooldown), and limited sections for players to hit…it all makes for a frustrating experience. I tossed on some exos, that expire. I sent out my support ships, and then I went into fog of war token space. Several other players were there all punching down. I’m Ops39, so hitting the 41s are my only real option. Only 44s were available and all the 40+ players were going for the 41s (I still see 46+ sometimes since people don’t know they won’t get refinable loot since there’s no good documentation/field training), and so I let my exos expire and I’ll try again later. This is a terrible experience. Some folk in my alliance and others are simply not engaging the new content. These things are fixable, just get rid of fog or war, tokens, double the available sectors. Frustration on this doesn’t lead to sales, from what I’ve seeing. It’s just frustration leading to unengagement

[junior sierra]

It would be cool if the systems would auto balance between levels- say number of 49s vrs number of 46s. Its takes forever to wait for level spawns and even longer to wait np for level and triangle. All the ships were 49s when I flew in 46 space today. It’s not engaging in the least, it’s a sit and wait situation that has greatly increased grind time and therefore player frustration.

[dusty portal]

I’m short to do a loot turn in from grinding silent and I can’t even bring myself to do it. I know after warping in looking for 46s that there will be nothing but 49s and that it will be a waste of time and a token

[ionic bough]

I am looking to get in contact with a cm or mod in customer group from Scopley. Can someone help me with that please? Thanks!

[cosmic basin]

Silent hostiles lvl 46 - 49 system is pathetic only lvl 49s wasted buffs and exo waiting stuff like this is why players are leaving game

[neat pier]

Silent hostiles do not get better at 51/52 or 55. As soon as you need to step up a level of hostile but have no access to the next level of ship. This does not encourage ops progression but the exact opposite.

[haughty fable]

Since when was there a perm slowmode?

[finite mural]

always

[crude sandal]

I think you're looking for #🌌-galaxy-chat for the non slowmode

[vivid nebula]

Why a wait time for bonus refinery to start, refinery rubbish enough without this pish

[crude sandal]

because players used to get mildly perturbed when a bonus refinery dropped out of nowhere and they didn't have time to up their mining, or missed the window for the first pull to maximise the output over the duration of the refinery ...

So they give us warning now, because of those people

Similar to the new push notifications and admin messages about the event store closing... because of the people who got upset that they missed the timers.

😂

[fading gorge]

That was the arc that has made me quit the game. The Silent Hostiles was the final straw. I ended up with 1/4 of a ship & half an officer that I needed to compete. 5 years of play, barely missed a daily, and struggling to complete an event.

[humble furnace]

17 mins of my life I’m not getting back, this video was pointless

[undone igloo]

Did something change with the Xindi Aquatic hostiles? Last week my NX-01 (T2/L10) with Pike, Moreau, Ent-E Data, BD Tendi and Mariner could kill 2 lvl 40 battleships and 4 inceptors before dying. This week can't even kill one battleship?

[limber mesa]

battleships are a gamble
check your logs.
they always fire 3 weak shots, followed by a strong shot, and if you're unlucky a 1-hit-kill shot as 5th shot in the 1st round.
if you get killed by the 5th shot it's just bad luck.
if it's the 4th shot, or after round 1, you should look into your crewing(there's an absolutely broken crew that lets you kill a lvl53)

[dapper bramble]

Unable to do waves on my server the lag is so bad. Please

[haughty fable]

Oh haha my bad I clicked into the wrong chat

[dapper bramble]

Ships teleporting, ships now showing dead after being killed, straight up disconnects after entereing

[crimson stream]

Why are we still unable to see the actual name of the pack we purchase? This seems predatory, intended to drive confusion, and repeat spending on stuff. There is in fact, no way to review past purchases. And scopely repeatedly puts things in the store that have already been purchased before, like primes. This can't be legal.

[dusty portal]

Please STAWP with the cardassian pass event. It’s ridiculous

[kind minnow]

get rid of the cardassian hunt or give us bigger cardassians ;p

[blazing kayak]

will scopely ever give us another way to source for fkr directives other than that weekly armada directives chests ?
they have been taking armada directives every arc and depleting stocks more rapidly than before but there is no way on gaining more...

[junior sierra]

right now? COW claim in alliances gift tab and recruit gold trophy utility

[abstract zealot]

thats what they want you to do. sourcing for directives is the store. they want people draining their directives

[dusty portal]

Wish they would just go back to swarm and probes. Many more options. And nobody wants to do cardarmadas this much

[kind minnow]

as least probes give u something u can use. these cardassian hostiles are completely useless

[willow delta]

find the mistake 🙈

[dusky sage]

CoW again?! where's our faction hunt? I have 6 bleeping faction ships waiting to tier up

[blazing kayak]

well doesn't give much via monthly and weekly payouts

[junior sierra]

plus g4 chests are gawd awful. Epic sourcing is so slow.......

[abstract zealot]

best sourcing is just your g3 chests. low cost and still get same directives. sure mats in it are mostly useless but can scrap g3 ships.

[devout harbor]

thank you for the LLAP gift today 🖖

[rapid topaz]

Game won’t load. Loads 70% and no further. Reset phone. Checked update status. Switched off WiFi and tried with LTE. Nothing Help!!!

[dry nest]

The arc we have just survived has got to be one of the absolute worst since I’ve been playing the game. Then we get the mini arc where again officers are limited to a ridiculously small amount…

[crimson stream]

I'm just assuming Scopely doesn't know how to itemize their invoices, because if they did know, and didn't do it, then my bank representative is becoming very upset. This is what a normal itemized invoice looks like, scopely. It shows exactly what was purchased! 😯

This is from a reputable company with a history of taking care of customer needs.

[woeful nymph]

Still waiting for a Half NX-01 unlock pack

[weak grove]

why is "mona" censored in chat?

[dry nest]

Really annoying isn’t it

[half roost]

Cole Haan doesn't make good shoes lol

[crimson stream]

That depends entirely on your feet, but yes they do. I used to work in footwear for a long time, and there are a few brands that I learned were well suited to my specific needs, and CH is one of them.

[sacred garden]

For scopley saying a little while back that they were giving lvl 35 and above prime materials tell all primes were done sure turned out to be a lie. Only primes finished by what they gave which I no longer receive any prime materials. Yet still have loads of primes to do lol.

[granite vine]

"Quality"

[broken flower]

Scopely will take your feedback on board and do the complete opposite. Rest Assured!

[carmine charm]

Silent and Xindi sure but cube, hated? By what metric? I can pull my cube out for any given bajoran event and ignore it the rest of the time

[round shard]

You know what might convince me to buy the pass? Removing the shard limits.

[brittle tundra]

Can we have the AMS leaderboard back please in Crucible of War? Can’t spot who’s slacking in my alliance!

[humble furnace]

Italian censorship. I believe, even if using English versions, foreign languages are censored. Although it’s mad as so many other words are not censored. I just call it the Moon ship 😂

[signal raptor]

Can we have the arcevent store back

[lapis ingot]

Fix your "random" number generator, Scopely, good God

[junior sierra]

Cube - ok loop wise maybe not hated - but definitely boring and not engaging. Lots of complaints and confusion. Weird that the beam doesn't level with tier [ but one level higher ]. You have to admit it's a boring loop, not to mention it isnt a factor in game play until g5 [ but awesome sauce in g6 ]

[carmine charm]

Eh confusion? There are charts that tell you exactly what to kill, where to kill them,... I certainly won't claim it's the most engaging loop but it's such an easy and fast one I really wouldn't put it anywhere near the silent or xindi loop on the frustration scale

[junior sierra]

I was pointing out -> last few = not fun.

[carmine charm]

And I'm pointing out it isn't anywhere near comparable so I just found it the odd one out, obviously it's fine if you dislike it but if the xindi loop was as easy and fast as the cube one I'd be a lot happier with it

[spiral tartan]

So with one day and 8 hours on the event store timer, the Admin message said it would "close soon". That kind of unspecific temporal framing, makes you wonder if it closes sooner than the timer says it does and solves nothing.

[junior sierra]

Honestly, the cube was more of a mental let down for me. But we have a real big in my alliance and his cube is 100% not a let down. Its by no means my second best ship and the loop is boring as sin. But it does not have the sharp level pains of the xindi or silent for sure.

[carmine charm]

I tend to just do the bajoran events with my cube, keeps me topped up so far 🙂

[junior sierra]

well, the research was cool for the cube at least. I have so much bajor loot already I dont bother anymore 🤣

[fierce heron]

would be nice, if the rewards in wave defenses are bound to the amount and/or power of enemies killed, as many players take part, doing nothing, but getting the same rewards as all others

[stray sleet]

Is there a way to update the materials that are included in packs? There is little incentive to make certain purchases on packs that only provide 4* materials when your ops level is in the 50s?

[little latch]

It’s still there. Pretty sure AMS has never had one and I always had to check ALB to compare and contrast.

[finite mural]

no it's not and it's being looked into

[little latch]

Mandela effect for me then. Oops.

[woven sonnet]

@tidal notch I appreciate the instant communication about the flash pass. Why did you not use the same level of communication for the armada scoring event when the community outcries at the ambiguous language? Communications performed in this way makes the community distrust the commitment of “better communication.” One begins to believe that clear communication only exists when purchases are involved

[tidal notch]

I think overall, communication has improved a lot this month, but we're still not perfect yet. Are you referring to the Xindi armadas?

[woven sonnet]

Yep event chat was ablaze over the ambiguous rare and epic armadas. A 5 day long event that only scored FKR armadas. Event discription never updated, days of forums asks why and if it’s working as intended without an official response from anyone. Only cand1e s response as a moderator basically assuming it’s working as intended. I get a 24 hour event is tough to update at times. That was a 5 day event

[finite mural]

It was explained by numerous people that it was working as intended, wasn't anything ambiguous about the scorecard that has the specific name for the directives used, or it being a repeat event that has run each of the previous arcs and only scored with basic directives.

[vale wasp]

There was no assumption, it was explained to me already, and I gave you the details.

[woven sonnet]

@tidal notch And as I told you, you went down the rabbit hole explaining that I should go to the bug forum to report something working as intended. Your level of response and communication did not give me clear concise and direct information. That is unless you intend for event feedback to now be listed in the bug section. I was polite saying assumption. Now I’m just going to say your communication and direction is poor at best. Again anytime there’s an issue with the cash store, that affects a portion of the community at any given time we get immidiate clear concise information with a tv to everyone. This event got none of that. And Cand1e answered questions not asked. Gave direction that was wrong, considering it was not a bug. You want feedback as to why the community struggles with the communication, I’m giving it in General feedback section. If you find my feedback aggressive, aggravating, wrong, frustrating or any other word you can assign it. Understand that I’m sharing how you are perceived by more than me. You can come at me, and that’s fine or you can focus on why your responses keep generating the same perception by many and work on the “It is not what you say, but how you say it.” And perfect example is cashstore issues get tagged with everyone in discord. Event confusion is left to moderators to basically address the feedback channels for the entire work day answer the same question from 1000 people.

[quaint mural]

For Silent Enemies why do we have to have 44's in a 41 system and wait forever for 41's to show up or have players that are suppose to hit higher silent enemies come take they all and only have 44's replace them in Aethera Nova!

[vale wasp]

My post is still there, unedited and you should review it again. In it, I gave you detailed information on what to expect going forward for armada events and how to score. And how to proceed with escalation if you find an event that deviates from the new standard.

It is clear, direct, and answers any questions anyone should have had about scoring for the event in question. #💬-events-feedback message

There is nothing there that directs your post to a wrong channel. There is nothing additional to read into.

[pseudo wadi]

Cause the higher players can't beat anything bigger cause the hostile are 100000000000p000000000000xs stronger than scopley says and is as broken as the rest of the game

[heady cedar]

Props to the <@&509690795536941056> and the <@&509691205798592532> for their efforts in communicating with everyone and for what they do here in this Discord. Its not an easy job and so many of us are not easy to please. Thank you for what you do. 🎉 ❤️ 🖖

[brittle tundra]

The AMS leaderboard was there previously.

[finite mural]

yeah, broke about a week into the key event

[nova sierra]

for token system grinds, make the hostiles stronger, but make them drop more loot @tacit obsidian. Atleast that’s my idea 😄

[quartz comet]

I wish there was an indicator on the ship screen to say what Grade your ship current is, now for some ships I know its obvious if its G3, G4 or G5 etc, but I mean ships that pass through multiple grades like the ISS Jelly, Monaveen and Talios.

Example once the Talios starts taking G5 components is it now classed as G5 ship, does that mean it stops benefiting from any G4 specific researches you may have and picks up any G5 researches or does it keep them both?

[devout harbor]

server 187 lagging out. unresponsive ship repairs

[analog plank]

26 as well
Also daily refinery shouldn’t take 8 minutes to collect, please find a way to make this faster in game

[old seal]

What bizarre looking explorers appear in Q trials 🤔

[charred cosmos]

Pretty sure the ship itself doesn't change grades when it reaches those tiers where it needs the next grade. My amalgam needs uc g4 mats/parts but it is still just a g3 ship if I'm not mistaken.

[kind star]

When will the q-hostiles finally be fixed? When can we finally use the incursion tokens? It has been announced that this will also happen outside of an incursion. When will this pathetic company scopely finally take a stand on the problems with the silent hostiles and the new armadas that require 57 players to meet the same requirements as level 70 players? Has scopeless learned from the total failure in 2024 and the 4th arc this year won't be a piece of junk?

[barren hazel]

https://tenor.com/view/when-pigs-fly-flying-pigs-gif-8836065

[slender monolith]

No. Ship grades are unrelated to material and component grades, grade relevant ship research will always apply at a fixed grade, G3 to G3 ships, G4 to G4, as shown on the name bar in ship management or in the ship build list.

[tropic crown]

Scopley is busy planning ways to milk you for all your cash. They don’t care about you they don’t care about a quality product. They will bleed the community for everything they can and move on. Just accept that because it the truth.

[knotty shore]

doing real work

[robust knoll]

More than likely it has the stat distribution of an explorer. Generally, the ship is either the stated type or you need the stated type of ship to kill it. In cases like this (setting aside bad coding 🙄 ), the stats often line up with the type of ship.

[old seal]

Bad coding on top of the "Quality " mantra that Scopely is junking on us.
This year Quality over quantity, last year Reduced grind.... not sure if we will be around next year to save us from meaningless words

[tropic crown]

What the point of the event store? Crumbs from the bp and no events to earn more. #quality.

[thorny root]

Every time I use the Cerritos to support it makes my ship show “destroyed” I restart and BAM just fine.

[wise kelp]

Hey scopes, another day, and still super frustrated with the silent hostile sectors using tokens, fog or war, and making them stupid amounts squished for levels. Today is another day I had to stop doing that loop because other players decided to punch down in the 41-44 sector. I’m ops39 and have no choice on what I can hit. This is a continuing source of frustration. Double the sectors. Give more room, remove fog of war. Remove the tokens. Any and all of these things can be done to make this a loop more will engage in. As it is folk in my alliance lament not doing it, and they refuse to do the silent hostile loop

[true zealot]

So you can't do the silent loop at your level....weird seems it gives parts (to help you grow) and worse case nodes to mine...its something for everyone and even if you can't do the loop you still get an option to participate. Crazy?!

[junior sierra]

First is bonus refinery 250K, second is regular 😁

[wind shell]

There should be a much greater spread between the 44s and 41s...and I assume between all of the grouped silent hostiles

[abstract zealot]

there isnt forr the disruptor parts. since scopley wants to keep the cost flat. so no matter your ops its still relatively same cost BUT needed uc/rare/epic depending on your ops.

[wind shell]

I get that, but it is also part of why when you go in the 41 system it ends up just 44...Either just get rid of the higher ones or provide some incentive for folks to hit the higher hostiles...

[bronze igloo]

Can you stop calling it a bonus refinery and start calling it a suck up your raw mats for minimal payout refinery? Calling it bonus infers that there is an actual bonus to it, but using it you spend more raw mats for less overall than if you just did your regular pulls.

Just an example but say you have 2 players with exactly 3 mil raw gas, one only does the regular pulls and the other does both. The one doing the regular pulls is going to have more UC, rare and epic mats by the time that 3 mil is gone than the one pulling both.

[abstract zealot]

oh i agree having the same loot type is pointless should of just not had the 44s at all.

[abstract zealot]

bonus is for extra pulls. not efficiency. yes if you only do single chest pulls youd get more for all the raw you put in but it would take you 3 times as long to pull those singles. the bonus refine is to give people who have OVER mined a way to get more faster but at a steep raw cost.

[bronze igloo]

It's still cost inefficient crap anyway you justify it. I always have a surplus so it's nothing to me and nothing to wait a few days doing my regular daily pulls to surpass the piddly payouts from the bonus refinery.

[abstract zealot]

yes it cost inefficient but will save time. your regular pulls are there they just also give you the option for bonus pulls at a high cost. in this game raw materials dont have much value the refined ones does. so you can slow pull and be super efficient but others that over mine and be really inefficient will get more faster.

[warm gulch]

The Bonusrafinery is a bad Joke from Scoplay.
I use it because better as nothing.

[ivory folio]

We got a lot of ships and loops the last time. So its now much more to repair, but the repair speedup reward from the dailies is since years the same. This doesn't match together. Wenn need a big adjustment in the daily rewards pleases 🖖

[limber oriole]

I've called it the "Bogus refinery" for a while now

[cosmic knoll]

finally found those missing 2 borg cube PCs i see 😏

[dusty portal]

I have silent enemies in each of three trials, please remove them, I dont want to see another silent enemy again

[white shadow]

I refuse to do silent enemies or much of anything else in this lame (insert bad word) game any longer.

[stark night]

Dear Scopely,

1. Please do not add another Grind Loop next arc.
2. Please do not add another Specialty Ship next arc.
3. Please update the Bonus Refinery to reflect Bajoran favors. Currently it’s a far worse worse ROI than regular pulls (image below).
4. PLEASE spend an arc fixing the content we already have. Examples include:

• Remove silent enemies from Q trials
• Recalibrate the horrendous scaling of the Xindi and Silent hostiles so ALL players can hit closer to their ops and actually participate in this loop
• Recalibrate the Xindi armada refinery so ALL players can actually refine something more than a single pull per month
• Recalibrate the bonus refinery to include research and favors
• Fix the Anomaly node spawning so a restart isn’t needed to see the new nodes each time you clear an uncommon node
• Expand the level 50 Cardassian and level 60 Freebooters systems to add at least another one because it’s too crowded and there are too many events requiring grinding there
• Since quality>quantity wasn’t actually a thing, please consider increasing the daily rewards of ex-borg credits so we have enough to not only participate in the favors but also buy the items for older grind loops. Or make it a different currency than the favors, doesn’t matter. But it’s a major failing to introduce this time saving feature and immediately turn around and add more loops and new favors that require the same currency.

Just things off the top of my head that seems like easy fixes and would go a long way to retaining players. Right now, I’m running out of reasons to continue to play this game. The fun has been squashed.

[wild gate]

J ust warped in to do Silents... Seriously???

[white shadow]

The fun was squashed a long time ago. The only thing that keeps me here is the few friends I've made along the way. Beyond that I have no motivation to continue to play this cash register of a game. But I do agree something needs to be done before they find themselves with a lot more people feeling the same way as I do.

[molten shell]

Sure would be nice to get that Incusions Loot Exo working.

[kind star]

Scopeless could make it easy for themselves; instead of the completely outdated bonus refinery, which is also laggy, they could simply give every player 100 elite tokens every month. But this solution would be far too simple and also something that players would like. They haven't done that for a long time.

[glass monolith]

@tidal notch any idea when they are gonna sync up the events? 2 separate event rests a day are a real drag.

[spiral tartan]

It syncs up when your timezone goes to Daylight Savings. For most of Europe that is this weekend.

[glass monolith]

Every time change in the last several years they have taken the time to make them sync up. So they are just not bothered anymore?

Maybe they should just leave them all alone instead of changing 1 but not the other.

[slender monolith]

I don’t understand why there are 2 event timers, either all should have stayed put or all should have moved by 1 hour.

[gleaming wedge]

You know. Now would be a good time to bring back the NX-01 half pack. You might get some people to buy.

[woeful nymph]

This would have been an excellent chance to sell a half NX-01 pack <@&509690795536941056> . Instead of potentially cashing in on those that have 1/2 of the NX-01 unlocked, you choose to only offer a full unlock. Nobody with any bit of sense will pay for a full unlock when they are already halfway there. Another missed opportunity

[spare imp]

Releases a mini calendar of what’s on so people can plan, and then doesn’t stick to it. What an utter joke.

[swift steppe]

Nothing but bounty hunters in Yarda , no Battleships spawning

[quaint mural]

In all honesty if you cant look into a system that you have discovered is rather childish its flying blind to do a grind and hope theres a level of ship you can attack hostile wise is silly. I understand the certain aspects of deep space. But if we don't have the NX 01 to look into a system whats the point of doing a grind you have no means. An just waste tokens sure if your going to mine it makes sense. To many loops to much hassle why bother playing!

[wide marsh]

Seriously? You all (scopely) bring back the absolute failure that were xindi events between arcs? Why do you hate us?

[quaint mural]

It really Feels like Punish The Player For Not Spending Money. A bunch of us play still because of the friends and community we've made and support. You want to control how far we level how many hostiles we defeat in a day. Refinery pulls are so low. To slowly work up a build, research, favour, in a month or two. I went from 43-44 and xindi scrap went up 2000 parts why! i already struggle with a T6 Valdore to get a 1000 parts in a run and waste time trying to find a xindi survery to get a bonus amount. The time you take out of my day for such minisucle benefits is not beneficial. I am seeing more and more pay to win. Canadian prices if i want the nx01 after taxes it 140.00 give or take a few yet your american prices before what ever taxes are 99.99 (someone correct me if wrong) why does it have to so much more for us is it based on exchange value of Us Dollar to Canadian Dollar. A little transparency to use the customer on multiple aspects would be greatly appreciated. I am not asking to reveal whats next but what you actually plan to do to the problem. An i agree with a previous comment to have a patch that fixes issues to create a less bumping road forward. The Player Experience is more important for long term retention. Fine its not suppose to be easy but not suppose to be impossible.

[tidal notch]

Asked about this, and I don't think we're syncing up. Will double check tho.

[tidal notch]

Good idea. Will pass on!

[woeful nymph]

Thank you. If it does happen, if you could let folks know that would be greatly appreciated. You'd sell at least 1 pack of it 😉

[icy kettle]

What’s wrong with this event. It’s awesome

[white shadow]

A SMS that isn't worth the effort and 2 spend style LB's that in the end will probably cost more than whatever they pay out 🤔.. nothing

[slender monolith]

The SMS took me 1 kill, the rest i have to persist with and see how much effort i need over the 2 days

[white shadow]

4 years so I'm well aware of how these events work and that is exactly why to me they are not even worth the effort.

[exotic depot]

Don't add another grind for the rest of the year 😒

[white shadow]

Or next

[stark night]

My alliance of friends is the only reason I still play as well.

I’m holding out hope Scopely will fix the mess they made with the Xindi/silent arcs making that content nearly unusable for a large population of players. Fingers crossed 🤞🏼

[bronze igloo]

I mentioned this myself weeks ago since many are around the half way point on unlocking. I was kind of already expecting a half unlock to be available by now as that's the usual with ships like the NX-01

[rough belfry]

<@&509690795536941056> I really enjoy this style of Officer Flash Pass. Having currency to spend to buy the officers I want or need vs just getting whatever officers are in the pass is fantastic.

There has been Officer Flash Passes where I didn't buy the elite pass because I wasn't interested in the officers awarded, but I instantly knew I would buy this pass once I say how it was laid out.

[tidal notch]

I think the flash pass is pretty cool too. Glad you dig it.

[tidal notch]

Yeah. You'd think that by now we could get at least a partial unlock.

[woeful nymph]

100%. Scopely has the potential to make $0 or at least $50. It seems like a win for them and all it requires is pressing a few buttons to load an existing pack (yes, there was a half pack the first few days). There may even be people that buy the $50 pack then then buy the $100 NX-01 upgrade pack...they might even buy the NX-02 Columbia pack. When people are telling you they want to spend $, you should give them the chance.

[quartz ingot]

Well said

[stark lintel]

Love this format too! Only downside is the very low limits, especially on the rares.

[woeful nymph]

That would by my only point of feedback is to have higher limits. It's already gated by the amount of currency we can get

[tidal notch]

Yeah... the limits are a bummer, but seeing as most flash passes don't have an event store, I thought overall it was pretty solid. Maybe we can work on increasing the number of shards tho.

[stark lintel]

100% agree and I like to store format. It would encourage sales of currency packs if you raised the limits though. I’d buy 1 or 2 if I could get more shards of the officers I need.

[tidal notch]

Hmm. That's a good point. Will pass this on. Hope we can get more shards for the next run.

[woeful nymph]

If I had the choice, this new flash pass officer store is better then a static one. At least we have some choice. Choice usually makes people happier, or at least content...lol

[tidal notch]

Agreed!

[stark lintel]

Thanks Hammy! Really do appreciate the communication lately.

[exotic depot]

Would prefer not to have a limit on shards per officer or at least set it higher than 9 or 12. Was excited when I saw T'ana and thought I could finally unlock her and then very disappointed when I realised the shard limit was sooooooo low

[tidal notch]

Yeah. The amount of shards needs work. But I'd still rather see more flashpass event stores even if the amount of shards is low.

[spark acorn]

@tidal notch Hi welcome to the crazy. xD I have a sincere question that im sure is on alot of the players minds if I may be so bold. Here it goes: Is there any attempt being made or can we start making an attemtp to combine some of these grinding loops? Speaking from a player who has more time to game than most (medically retired) I can honestly say its becoming overwhelming even for me to stay competetitive. Something always falls behind. I have an example of what i mean. Apex Thursdays is painful for everyone. Can we maybe dump the mada system in favor of say a weekly quest and maybe Xindi or Silent enemy grind count for apex? Kinda like exborg does for faction and swarm dailies? I mean that was an awesome quality of life improvement, but it kinda got kicked in the rear hard by new more loops. Thanks

[stark night]

THIS!! 🙂 too many loops now (again)

[wise kelp]

Please fix voyager token space. Those nodes don’t update so you have to constantly refresh the screen, and even restart a few times every trip. Today, I tried to find something in my inventory and got interrupted five times because I kept getting alerts that I was under attack. Nope, just everyone in token space targeting my node because they couldn’t see me in there. Please please fix. It’s been months. Thanks

[tidal notch]

Oh yeah! One of the biggest mentions we've heard since the Enterprise arc started was the increase of the grind and we've been passing this feedback on to the team. I can't go into specifics at this point, but I really think that the team heard and understands that the grind has gotten to be too much for a lot of players.

Don't have anything official yet, but I'm cautiously optimistic.

[white shadow]

It was too much a while ago.

[vast nest]

So what happened to Quality over Quantity?

[spark acorn]

That sounds good. Ive seen improvements already since this Arc to alot of other areas, so im glad these issues are also being heard and worked on. Thanks for the swift response and welcome to the Community.

[tidal notch]

Yup. And I think the original ExBorg arc last year was one of the best we've ever done. That came directly from player feedback too.

[tidal notch]

Thanks! And happy to hear that you've seen some improvements. Want to keep this momentum going.

[white shadow]

The ex Borg only helps with dailies doesn't help with faction if you're grinding for rep so you still don't get out of it. It's just a nice convenience if you want to get the dailies done quickly.

[quaint mural]

@white shadow they put stuff into the game to boost the rep you get. most beneficial one is in the monaveen research

[white shadow]

I'm well aware of that.

[tidal notch]

True. It doesn't really help when it comes to Faction rep, but still a big help for dailies and loops. I particularly like the Anti-matter units for the Bajoran loop and the inert nano probes.

[white shadow]

Sure

Along with all the other loops IF you have the ex Borg credits for them if you are not saving them for research or one of couple things you need to use those credits for.

[tidal notch]

Yeah... the expansion in January was hit or miss for me. Some of the research was handy, but I was happier to see the addition of the Voyager and Monaveen loops.

[ruby cargo]

you rat bastards what is the big idea of pulling T'Pol from my event store when all I needed to do was buy 2 more shards? No wonder people are leaving this game in droves

[spark acorn]

Less time on loops especially dated ones like Apex equals more time to rep grind. Imo

[white shadow]

If you have the common ex Borg credits to do that on a day to day basis then dig it. I do and can if I choose to do so. I do certain grinds on certain days and whatever they are I spend that day doing just those so I have enough to last me at least a week minimum so I can save those credits for research or whatever else I may need out of the ex Borg faction store. I do it the way I do so I don't have to grind everything everyday but that's me. But for a casual player or a lower level player who doesn't play like some of us do the work load can be overwhelming.

[swift sphinx]

The problem is, all too often the response to this type of feedback has been “pay to lessen or remove the grind.”

Pair that with more and more Heroic events and officer recruitment being “spend $400 minimum to complete this event” and the dev team seems to really not care about player retention or user engagement.

Go back and count how many pay only to progress events were pasted in our event boards this past arc alone.

[rose nacelle]

This reply right here… this is the kind of responses we need and have been begging for. Even if the overlords don’t really do anything- idk about others, but I will say I appreciate your response on this, specifically like this.

THANK YOU!!

[abstract wedge]

I will believe improvements in the grind when I see them.

[ionic bough]

Eco how far does this need to go before you do something, about the behavior on 72? You seem to not know how to check your DM's.

[plain marsh]

its sad when more then one player are reaching out to you on the same issue looks bad on your company, i guess it is just all about making them money

[last nest]

eco isnt cm anymore

also real funny that holodeck leveling now gives patterns that literally no one uses

[plain marsh]

he could still check his dm's they where sent to him before he went into training for his new job

this server has had this issue for years now but it took till now for someone to speak up about the toxic behavior and bullying on server 72

many good players have left the game on 72 do to this issue and more will continue to follow if the issues are not addressed thats just facts

[safe pilot]

@tidal notch Any chance scopely are releasing an nxo1 partial unlock pack? Got to be lots of people similar to me. Around halfway on shards ingame.

[finite mural]

It's being looked into

[last nest]

thats not really anything they have to really tend to for the past 6 years , they do not care so you should probably just move past the mind set that they give 1 crap about retaining people.

[tepid bramble]

Scopy runs the servers with the same mindset Vault Tech ran the Vaults. You (we) are all party to a wonderful PSYOP designed to tweak their malignant sales practices. 😁

[obtuse jungle]

How long does it take till the Xindi Token space will be changed? Wasted again 3 tokens today. Had the wonderful luck to die in round 1 against their weapon. Get this rng out of it . What is this? A lottery game? We do pay enough and now a lottery effect? Either you are lucky and can progress or not? This is not ok. We are allowed to pay and though we pay there is still such an rng thing in it. Unfair competition.
I hope more countries finally make a law to ban such loot/rng things from games.

[finite mural]

Not being changed.

[woeful rapids]

who designed the odds on these xindi aquatic bships? it IS NOT 30% chance of super weapon activating. 10 runs in a row without a kill now, every single time getting killed by the super weapon. 30% my backside!

[finite mural]

are you actually dying to the super weapon, or the stat check?

[woeful rapids]

the super weapon.

[tropic crown]

Does the amount of credits you earn to get ship skins ever get better? Is there any research? At rate it takes now the game will shut down before i get one skin.

[limber mesa]

do you mean from the amalgam refinery?
if so, there's ex-borg research that lets you refine up to 5x (10m loot at a time instead of 2m), so you can do the amalgam recruit for skin trackers and HG worf a lot more.

[tropic crown]

Thx

[ionic bough]

Another day of bullying!

[tulip cosmos]

So again I go in to Silent Enemy Space and Have no ship in my Triangle I am an Explorer and there are No interceptors so I kill all the BattleShips and Explorers and Guess what Spawns more lvl 49 ships I need 46 and the ones that are at 46 are Battle Ships or Explorers. After killing around 5 of each of these all I am left with now are 49 ships. I know I have said this needs fixing weeks ago and others but nothing is being done. I can only guess none of you ppl play the game as if you did for sure you would have fixed this and many other Problems. So any idea when we can enjoy this part of the game as it's been weeks of frustration.

[plain marsh]

its nice to see that only after 4 years of reporting bullying that its now being looked into but its all good take your time while more spending players quit

i wonder how many other servers are as toxic as 72, lets keep up on that quality over quantity that good stuff 🙄

[swift sphinx]

Basically every server has these people. The really fun ones are the ones who go further and use any discord channels tied to the server to continue the harassment and even doxx and encourage public harassment of people in and out of the game, and Scopely’s response is “we aren’t responsible for what happens on discord” even though they admit through using it themselves it’s a necessary part of the game.

[plain marsh]

and thats why good players keep quitting the company refuses to deal with the issue and its the good people that have to suffer great way to run a company

[swift sphinx]

Trolls spend money, and keep spending despite Scopely obviously not reinvesting in improving the game through gameplay fixes or even fixing years-old graphical issues.

[plain marsh]

well the trolls are going to cause the company way more in the long run then they seem to think it will, i guess thats why there customer service rating is only 3 star

[swift sphinx]

Oh, that’s only because the click farm services haven’t been paid this patch to up the rating.

[ionic bough]

Oh they have a rating? They do not have good customer service at all, and it shows. Players dropping like rocks!

[plain marsh]

if i had to guess id say server 72 has lost about 25-30% of its players sense the last merge do to the continuing toxic behavior, I myself am thinking of quitting its just bs, this is supposed to be a fun place and its just toxic now

[woeful nymph]

I think you have the cooldown time is wrong on the Borg armadas gift chest? Shouldn't it be a 24 hr cooldown if the "duration" is 3 days? Just scratching my head why the chest didn't disappear if it's a 1 and done

[slender monolith]

It’s to give people 3d to claim it once

[kind star]

Before you start a q-event, which I'm sure will be garbage like everything else this year, fix the bugs first! In this case, finally get rid of the silent enemies from the Q-quests! A little tip for your incompetent developers: if players can't progress because of the silent enemies, they'll spend less money on FT...

[tropic crown]

Very informative retrieving event update!

[placid rain]

@tidal notch ... any chance you can explain WHY the rewards are so different? First is a level 58 player. Second is me, a level 44 player. Both pay the same amount of money for the Webstore item (extra FC commander slot). Surely this is daylight robbery???

[tidal notch]

Are you saying that all packs should have the same amount for all players? I dunno if that would work. Players in their 50s need much more rss then ops 30 players and keeping the packs the same for everyone might not work out.

[gritty sigil]

Hi

[placid rain]

I kind of hear what you're saying, ofc higher peeps need more resources... but also, 99.99 is 99.99 of RL money no matter what level you are (and 940K lat is a lot less than 2.19 Mill Lat). It kinda smarts to pay the same amount of hard earned cash and get LESS. Can you see that too?

[tidal notch]

Sure. But I don't think we'd offer an ops 20 the same pack as an ops 58 right?

[placid rain]

In some things, sure. Maybe not lat? Anyway, something to feed back, please? 🙂 I mean, ouch... I feel quite hard done by lol.

[pastel path]

@plain marsh @plain marsh @plain marsh

[gritty sigil]

Think of it this way. if a level 20 got the same pack that I get as a 45, it would be quite a largesse.... consequently, if I got a package that a level 20 got, it would be worthless to me.

[tidal notch]

Yeah I get where you're coming from.

[candid forge]

Why did the limits get changed for the officers for the easter event?

[placid rain]

Lat though is useful at every level. And cash is cash. Ya know? Just my thought anyway, I know opinions differ 🙂

[tidal notch]

What was the change you're seeing?

[gritty sigil]

The issue I have is why do I have 30+ regular vidar exocomps and no Vidar Talios exocomps.... lol I would love to see some sort of exocomp exchange or somehow make Talios exocomps more available.

[timid owl]

All epic officers are now limited to 9.
Four of them used to have a limit of 12.

[tidal notch]

Lemme check.

[tidal notch]

Nope no change. Rares are 12 shards and epics are 9.

[tropic crown]

If they cost the same they should have the same resources. The prices charged are inane to begin with.

[sand notch]

where would the balance in economy be then? everyone may aswell be ops 70, i'm not being shill boy. i'm notorious for not being that. 🙈

[tropic crown]

if they can scale the resources they can scale the cost. Otherwise you’re price gouging.

[tidal notch]

I'm just happy that we had a flashpass event store. Could there have been more shards? Sure, but I thought just having it was cool.

[pastel path]

Agreed

[sand notch]

was a nice surprise. some packs are awful value for money, especially some of the old school primes 😦 would be amazing to source some of them from some sort of battlepass, as long as executed well.
battlepasses with rewards targeted by segment would be amazing aswell. at ops25, some of the stuff rewarded is obselete for another 10-15 levels - where as I'm missing important things now, which higher level contempories would have received 😕
If this happened; my only worry is that we wouldn't be able to source it down the line, and be in the same position again.

[placid rain]

@tidal notch Ty for the work you do here. It's not easy dealing with all of us reprobates with all our questions and complaints. But what you do is appreciated. Sometimes it just needs to be said 🙂

[tidal notch]

Thanks! I'm still settling in, but I'm already digging this community! Think we're going to do some good work together!

[true zealot]

Obsidian, you've been doing great work, and its been very nice and refreshing. Eco came out the gate strong, but I guess got busy with his other duties. Hammy you don't have to move mountains, just keep us in the loop from time to time.

[elder hornet]

Why does the Ships Parts tab show rare parts? The part you have a chance to get only see common and uncommon?

https://youtu.be/iX-4ELkmdYw?si=tGGDdFst5NXr7rBC great constructive feedback on g4+ bonus refineries needing an update

[remote thunder]

Is it just me or is Odo's, Badgey's, & Boilmer's Below Deck Abilities aren't showing up as activated in Battle Logs

[nova sierra]

Now, think of it this way. Two people standing at the counter at the local butcher. Both want to spend $15 for a ribeye steak. One person gets a 16 ounce ribeye for $15, the other gets an 8 ounce for the same price. When questioned, the butcher says that the person who got the 16 ounce has a higher income/ better credit score/ whatever. Fair, or not?

[silk charm]

it's more comparable to "we're going to pay the person in san francisco more than the person in nowhere, kansas, because the person in san francisco has like 5x the housing bill." The latinum difference is because, well, look at the timers for a given building or research at ops 50 vs 30, and the cost of using latinum to buy the common g5 something needs vs common g3 something needs

[nova sierra]

Except, that's not how Scopely sets their price. Locality pricing has objective reasoning behind the difference in cost. Higher expenses leads to higher price in locality pricing. There is no increased cost to Scopely when offering these packs for sale. Players are two people standing at the same butcher counter in the same place at the same time, and getting different value for the money spent. I know, I know, Scopely's philosophy is "Shut up and spend money. If you don't like it, go play Super Mario on your N64". 😆

It says though. If we dont beat it q will turn back time for us to try again. If we get to redo the rewards again. This event could be a way to rewards us rather easy materials

Or hear me out intentionally fail the even and get the real award after the third attempt? 4124 = April fools Day

I bet round 3 will be just 41. so just kill 14 in round 1, 14 again in round 2, then whatever in round 3

[rich elm]

i’d rather do something productive than spend 1 straight hour in the game - it’s supposed to be fun not a job

[junior sierra]

geez, it's april fools. top rewards are a joke for part one and part 2. Only do the lower 3 milestones = cake - Last one will be completable and the Meta says you only need one completion.

[rich elm]

it’s still March where i live

[unreal gull]

It took me less than 10 minutes per hour.

[exotic bison]

Don't want it, nobody asked for it, won't watch it either. Instead of this kind of useless crap fix some serious bugs

[compact terrace]

that kind of enhancement reeks of an internal request... hey... make a place in the game so that people dont have to go externally to find/watch my videos... we need to get our numbers up to justify making these videos.

[fluid crystal]

You really in need of that 4k parsteel?

[somber orchid]

It all helps 🤣

[stoic pebble]

is there an option to turn off the video content?

[humble furnace]

Yes don’t watch it

[stoic pebble]

silly me expecting a sensible response

[dapper carbon]

Hay, I don't do much on here, but the voyager upgrade event in a couple days is so unfair, I haven't been able to do any upgrading or researching for 6 months now, how is someone able to do an event when 5hey can't upgrade a ship because it's lv locked.

[limber mesa]

at least the nx-01 version of that event counts spending credits in the faction store as well.

[opal warren]

The game clock showing release of my ancient beacons yesterday said I did while at work for some reason. I could not see the beacons to take my mantis there. The beacons later report 2/8 however no beacon to access. Now today it released the beacons. My next batch due in an hour. Will see what happens

[magic narwhal]

To be fair 410 is totally doable in 7-10 minutes.

@heavy bridge not sure how you think that’s clowning on people, not that hard to go kill some level 1s real fast if someone’s a go-getter completiobist. If not easily done for most everyone that’s not a slacker on the 3rd attempt.

[heavy bridge]

The only you got other than me would be 4k steel, enjoy😉. Hope you enjoyed killing all those level 15 swarms

[magic narwhal]

No way! level 15 swarms! Save that for the whales! Level 1 Independents!

[humble furnace]

Scopely response “you should it have maxed by now” 😂… reminds me of the old Stella days. Event kill eclipse hostiles but you have no Stella so event incomplete same with Franklin old events. Scopely expect you to have max everything for your ops. 😒

[sand notch]

this still impresses me.... the UX giving it everything
🙂

[sand notch]

were they new, ripper insired, did they leave?

[heady shadow]

Why the heck is it a limit of 9 per officer? w t f

[jaunty prism]

This Videos thing is so annoying. I don't care about your patch notes videos, stop trying to inflate your YouTube view count and stop covering up the alliance help!

[remote flume]

You can kill Eclipse without a Stella! 😂

[graceful cedar]

Hey, these videos you think we care about are taking the level of glitches to new heights ..... just leave them in discord where they belong and fix the broken systems we keep telling you about.

[cosmic basin]

Stop the videos they are so annoying

[somber orchid]

Are they new videos or just spamming the old one I keep ignoring it as it’s annoying

[hollow wing]

This company's implementation and inability to fix Waves crashing is an emabrasement. It truly is. That is all.

[weak grove]

Sirius and Groombridge are binary star systems. Be ashamed, scopely!

[honest lava]

The Q's trials event was a total bust. I had no idea that collecting the gift would immediately start the trial. I was busy all day and only popped in to reset nodes and collected gifts. Next thing I know I've wasted 3 event trials cause they auto start after collecting a gift. Not cool, I should have been able to use the gifted trial starts to start the event when I was ready. You know like its done with the ticketed event.

[humble furnace]

Well yeh but at ops 26 or something 😂 I remember blowing my mayflower up 100 times to do that event. I’m ops 44 now and I kill eclipse with non-Stella to grind xp

@weak grove You do realise Star Trek is not real right? It’s called Science Fiction for a reason https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Groombridge_34 also this explains why it’s only 1 star

[tulip cosmos]

I watched it in the hope of getting rid of it but it keeps coming back Plz get rid of it Scopely.

[weak grove]

In this link it's also binary and later in the text trinary even xD still wrong what scopely did there :D

[gusty fractal]

[junior sierra]

So what are Hugh’s chances here? Another 3 chest pull with zero Hugh. I actually went 5 triple pulls in a row with zero Hugh. Then got 3 shards. Now I’m back up to 3 triples with zero Hugh…..

[vale falcon]

So, finally got the cube in line with my FKR ship and it has less warp range than my FKR at the tier requirement needed to bring it in line with it. How does that make any sense?

Sanctus Warp range is 519 T6
Cube warp range is 396 T11

[delicate salmon]

Does anyone here play this game on a Macbook Pro?

[junior sierra]

Play on iPad much more, but I play on laptop

[delicate salmon]

I'm trying to download the game on my Macbook Pro, and it seems to be in a repetitve loop trying to update the driver(s).

[junior sierra]

I just updated and launched fine, so really not sure. I’m sure some mod maybe could help you out.

[remote flume]

Heh, yeah, I do remember those days! They didn’t last tho. Leveling to ops 30 only takes a short time compared to going from 30 to 40 or 40 to 50.

[humble furnace]

Keep reading it says now an independent star at the bottom

[delicate salmon]

Thanks

[frozen flicker]

I really hate this staggered event reset, can we just go ahead and adjust it for DST?

[quaint mural]

Can we please get the 41 silent enemy hostiles repawn rate adjusted for 41 Aethera Nova.

[teal monolith]

How does the monthly special redeem?

[reef breach]

Never got an answer as to why we are doing Borg missions and Borg cube stuff. The crew they off and the icons you can buy. Why is Excretus of Borg not one of the avatars offered ??
TheRealBoimler Ltjg wants to know .

[tropic helm]

They mess up star trek lore of course they'd mess up rl lore lol

[wild fossil]

Seriously what was the point ? Titled what's new this month, the video goes on for 10 seconds about the events that started 2 days ago and yesterday, which both started last month? The other 1:50 mins of the video was unnecessary also. If this is how scopely spends their money from players then god help you all. Also their is a whole world outside of America use the correct date format it's not January 😏

[royal solar]

It's April Fool's. We gave updates to remind people of the events already started (not everyone has been in them yet), events not started yet, and a reminder of the store.

It's meant to be fun. 🙂

[humble furnace]

They havnt messed it up. Read the Fandom Page for all things Star Trek.

According to Star Trek: Star Charts (p. 44) and Stellar Cartography: The Starfleet Reference Library ("Federation Historical Highlights, 2161-2385"), Groombridge 34 was a trinary star system of three M-class stars. In the late 24th century, it was an independent system.

[slender monolith]

Fun means double pitchforks and extra fire though

[royal solar]

True True. I got backlash the first time I used emojis. I should have known.

[somber orchid]

It was alright until the song came on

[slender monolith]

I still want to know who stole Altair VI

[warm gulch]

wave defense isnt playable... lag extrem

[humble furnace]

Don’t forget III and IV. More than likely scopely changed the planets name to a players name or an employees name…

[tawdry pewter]

Welcome to the farm

[prime socket]

Wolf 359 is a star, not a planet.

[full badge]

When is SCOPELY gonna fix the waves ffs??? !!! 2 times today where I did not get the credits for section 31 because the game froze.... How could you program a game so bad that this still happens?????????
I want definetely want a refund for their incompetence

[cosmic basin]

Can you plaese remove vidoes they are so annoying making me want to quit game

[pastel herald]

I got excited I had a new frame or avatar, was an alert to a video... They ned to stop that

[wise maple]

Online store not working. Booooooooooooooooo

[nova sierra]

which is hot for vocal and play together at STARR trek fleet I just debuted the game?

[fading robin]

Anyone getting content removed errors in the refineries? 🤣

[jaunty prism]

I think the real reason Scopely keeps pretending they don't understand daylight savings time is because they know their horrible servers can't handle event reset even when there's 2 separate resets

[humble lotus]

Scopely please reset your events clock so they start when they should 😡

[willow delta]

Europe is on daylight saving time, events still 1hour apart.
Someone said it would be aligned again if we are on daylight saving time.
But as i see it now it got scopelyed. 😄

[slender monolith]

Yea, it usually goes back into alignment, at least has done for the last few years

[rich bobcat]

Done event but no code

[bronze igloo]

I am curious, why do these two packs give the exact same payouts? I mean doesn't make it very special does it? Almost like you are expecting people to buy one just for the time limit on it.

[wise urchin]

got code but website under maintenance

[river fjord]

Wow. Can’t enter promo code…sites been under maintenance for me for a bit…

[forest egret]

April fools. No free stuff for you

[proud scarab]

Very nice, we receive a promo-code ….. and the web-shop is under maintenance 😡😡😡

[sour frost]

How would one remove a permemant chat ban?

[fluid crystal]

the word permanent doesn't mean anything to you ?

[willow delta]

DDoS attack
releasing the code to all players at the same time sure was a 'great' idea 😄

[sour frost]

I am just curious how they can even do that lol. It does carry some merit, hence the question

[latent pulsar]

Thats part of the prank lol. Website hasnt really crashed. They just further trolling for April fools day

[livid gust]

nice tabs 🥶

[oak bone]

I wonder what day it is today that would produce this effect ?

[heavy marten]

👍

[fluid mist]

funny part is they already prepped us with a dumb april fools event the other day and we still getting fooled today. Giess the next joke might be on them when people just say oooo look at this new game over here uninstalls stfc

[latent pulsar]

I was just thinking that lol. What about people who actually planned the use the webstore to make legit purchases?

[bronze igloo]

Yeah I guess $$ isn't in their plan because I am not spending unless I get my multiphasic credits

[potent shard]

April fools day. But it's interestedly odd that they decided to take the site down.

[desert wigeon]

what promo Code?

[fluid mist]

planned completely and I aint even wearing my tin foil hat either rofl

[vivid quarry]

Website maintenance will last until the event ends

[mystic swift]

And it's not just an April Fool's joke from the creators?

[kind star]

scopely's quality promise in one picture.

[latent pulsar]

Lol you got that right. I cant work out whether Website Under Maintenance or under THE maintenance 🤣

[young ibex]

"The site wasn't ready for the promo code!"

Again. Color us suprised.

[oblique relic]

So I take it this is the norm for Scopely's quality assurance?

[kind star]

The only things they are really good at and where you can speak of a consistent performance are lousy videos, bad service and bugs

[nova sierra]

Who's the April Fool now?! the mugs cheaping out on web hosting. Way to go Scimply, real smooth. 🤣

[fluid mist]

i just find it funny that the first notice of an issue with online store which of course is tied to website was at 1059am in here. First response we get from anyone at scopley or tied to scopley is 2hrs and 20 minutes later give or take. The response makes it seem like its "our" fault that we're trying to redeem a code just given out in the news after reset. Man I wish authors could make up stuff this good I'd have reading material for years lmao

[rotund yew]

gotta love everyone thinking the store is down its the promo code that did it 😛

[stiff latch]

Dont sweat it. It's a bad joke, worse if have no sense of humor like me.

[fluid crystal]

I don't have any nice words... scopely/digit you really need to do better

[languid iron]

Saudi Arabia doesn't have DST!

[runic bluff]

@fluid crystal so that's what a £100 pack looks like 🤣🤣

[blissful bluff]

Well, again, the scopes excelled. I am not at all interested in any bell, I wait an hour for what I get and in the end it is useless. Well, what would I like for April Fools' Day? There are many other more useful things than bells, which is almost at the bottom of my list. Below that, there are only frames and normal recruit tokens

[kind star]

How fast they can fix the webstore.. but no way for 2 years old bugs..

[molten inlet]

Dear Scopely: Your digital content creator needs to be fired "Roll playing - part 1"... cant even get the title right

i wonder if its the staff being vainful when theyre making these videos rather than trying to be helpful

[brittle veldt]

I wish i didn't trouble myself with it 🤦

[kind star]

It could hardly be more ridiculous. Typically scopely. 100 Bells 🙈. And their webstore crashed for that. I hope they're at least annoyed about it themselves. What a pathetic reward.

[molten inlet]

they'll just blame it on gremlins n call it a day

[drowsy granite]

Scopely is a disgrace

[limpid python]

Needing information on how to link devices pc and apple sends me to page that said contact fleet command or something similar won’t let me collect rewards or redeem stuff

[oblique bronze]

An ugly frame and trial bells no one wants. Yeah, sounds like a company that is in touch with it's customers.

[vale wasp]

You'll need to create a ScopelyID from the main device. Then log into the account on the secondary device.

[limpid python]

I did that and it’s still kicking me back to page that telling me to contact fleet command 404ops uncharted planet here maybe you should beam up

[simple basalt]

I also got the "I'm not eligible for the promo" message....and I had logged in with my Scopely ID and finished the SMS.....IDK...same ole crap....and frame is ugly...and bells? who cares.....joke is on me....

[vale wasp]

You log into the account in-game. Finish the tutorial after downloading it. The login section is under Settings > General.

[nova sierra]

well that reward for merryfoolsday was so rubbish its a wonder they could afford it to give out but mind u the rewards for most things are so under whelming you forget just how much respect they have for the players which is less than the rewards they give out

[brittle reef]

And we got a frame we already had. Great stuff.

[pale drift]

yeah the promocode isnt working still

[boreal ferry]

the videos constantly popping up in place of my help button are incredibly annoying. i don’t want to watch videos. it is not my preferred way to consume knowledge. i will never watch these videos. stop trying to justify someone’s job 🪴.

[pale drift]

yeah just another waste of memory and bogs the game down. plus youtube does it better!!!🤣

[wise maple]

Still broke

[atomic pasture]

Please get rid of the annoying video button and related red pips!

[tropic crown]

I don’t care about the vids, at least it an attempt to communicate. That said I don’t need the constant reminders their there.

[shadow swan]

Wave ship

[dusty portal]

So when will the event timers be fixed?

[reef breach]

I still have not been able to get the fools day reward if you want to call it that.

[pastel path]

Did you not have the frame? I'd not mess with it for the bells lol

[obtuse parcel]

Can someone tell what the promo code for the day was that seemed to have issues

[pastel path]

MERRYFOOLSDAY

[fluid crystal]

Whenever the time adjusts again...then next year it'll be all screwed up again... Come on this is tradition!

[dusty portal]

I’m just waiting the poster who said it would be all fixed after March 31st

[sand notch]

Please move the videos button from the HUD. Neither video are new, it's getting a tad annoying now. Watched the April fools video once, not sure how scoplely managed it.... Even that was lagging and constantly buffering 😕 (and no it wasnt my mobile connection 🙈 )

[jaunty prism]

This this this this! The video button is so annoying, I don't watch patch notes videos! Get it off my HUD and stop trying to pump your view counts.

And where the heck are the Incursion pairing announcements, Scopely?

[sand notch]

it normally relates to who you compete with in the xslb doesnt it? heaven only knows whats going to happen here, the xslb was with 2 other server instances, 400/104.
I wasnt sure if that was the #1's actual playername so i didnt redact it 🙈
I scored at #729 ..... which ever we get, isn't going to be good news for me

[jaunty prism]

What the heck, today I learned Discord can display transparency in images

[sand notch]

new magic found for both of us it seems..... good old microsoft paint has been updated 😹

[worthy parcel]

What is this?

[finite mural]

2nd repair slot

[silk charm]

that looks like it unlocks a set of titan research

Specifically, it unlocks the "titan patch" research in the starship tree, as it mentions

[finite mural]

oh. didn't read the titan part, weird don't even remember that claim

[sand notch]

Scopely have an alternative cash store here...... https://home.startrekfleetcommand.com/
Why aren't we allowed to leave feedback ? @tacit obsidian @tidal notch @royal solar @uncut spear

[atomic pasture]

Scopely whats yo with disappearing xindi armadas that get started and disappeared after 2 mins. 1000 directives out the door. Please refund the directives and you wonder why people hate you.

[tropic crown]

@tidal notch what ever happened to getting the event timers all line up?

[atomic pasture]

Oh wow Just bought the 9.99 battlepass unlock and got jack 💩.

[tropic crown]

You got Scoplied.

[jaunty prism]

And yet you keep buying stuff...

[tidal notch]

Don't think its going to happen. Had an announcement a while back about that: #⭐-official-announcements message

[humble furnace]

🤔 no change has occurred and clocks changed 2 days ago in Feb before clocks changed in USA. BP events started at 5pm UK and daily events started at 5pm UK. Daily challenges at 5am UK.

USA changed their clocks 2 weeks ago and all events moved down to 4pm UK for BP events, 4am UK for daily challenges and the daily events stayed at 5pm UK

Rest of world now changed clocks the same as America. Daily BP events now back to 5pm UK, daily challenges back to 5am UK however daily events how been pushed from 5pm to 6pm UK time

[plain marsh]

it be nice if all the hirogin systems would work but no error 200

[livid stone]

Why in the world after all these years would STFC not adjust for DST? You all have always adjusted eventually so that the events are synced up.. Weird in 2024 that a company has a hard time with DST adjustments. An even easier option would be to do what you do with the evening dailues, leave the events and BP starts at a given time, sync reset to that chosen time, and never change them after. Plenty of other games do that as an option. Just wondering why they are out of sync and seemingly not going to change.

[tidal notch]

Not quite sure what the reasoning was for this change. I'll see what I can find out.

[kind star]

This is typical scopely: there are many options and they choose the "solution" that is the most stupid. So far, it has worked all these years. But the next completely superfluous video that nobody needs is sure to come soon.

[sage token]

Server 30 left out of server merge yet again

[daring dust]

What is the reason of not giving faction credits to all players during the Wounded animal event? We all need them

[silent hollow]

They build systems of breakable plates one on top of the other. And they don't bother to touch the bottom as it will cause the whole thing to fall

[wise maple]

For the love of god PLEASE merge server 36!!!!

[sage token]

Server 30 is waiting too. It's too bad we can't transfer servers after the low level limit

[wise maple]

Exactly. Been on this god awful server for 4+ yrs now and scopely could give two 💩 if players are using bots, threatening, embezzling, just to name a small few of the problems. You can send them direct evidence of this, but since these “players” spend 100’s of thousands on the game scopley turns a blind eye.

[quasi wren]

You must torture us don’t you

[verbal tinsel]

Heya...

I want to make a short form video about
[The Franklin]
Kinda just like to ask if you guys want it to be Official

Like an in depth explanation and Tips and Tricks/Exploits that I have found

I want to make it into a series of SfVE's (Short form Video Essay) on each of the Quest linked Fleet vessels

Ps... That 5 min wait before posting sucks for me and my ADHD

[humble furnace]

Just waste 25 and get the 80 from the chest. Your amounts are uneven due to the poor rewards from territory battlepass think one milestone gave 4 bells 😳

[slender monolith]

Could be worse, no hope of claiming them…

[glacial spruce]

Scopely probably needs to get Y2K fixed before they can take care of DST issues. 😋

[slender monolith]

I don’t mind things moving for players and being on a fixed time, just that the underlying time should obviously be GMT, or UTC if you must. If event reset is 1700+0, then in DST it’s going to be an hour later, it’s not like it isn’t different for everyone around the world already.

[hollow goblet]

Okay i've had just about enough of the amount of ridiculously unhealthy mechanics the team does not pay attention to in the game so kindly pay attention & understand this is very serious for the health of the game.

1. Stop keeping more than 1 chest pulls of most things across the board TRIPLE the cost of loot unless it's 3 day reset like the rogue faction chests.
2. The epic armada chest pull being no more than 2 chests, with a ONE WEEK reset is VERY unhealthy & feels like a joke for many players. Either make the reset daily or add the option for 6 chests, i suggest making it daily reset or 2-3 days reset, not a whole week only to get literal garbage half the time from it.
3. Please stop adding nonsense into the game & set a cycle where you focus on what is already there, fixing it, adjusting numbers, etc literally just common sense thing do in a game like this.
4. Please make scout ships GUARANTEED to drop chests, because waiting 1-3 hours for scouts that randomly show up, are very limited & contested, only to NOT get a chest literally makes a person want to ragequit. Even better if you add scouts to more systems.

[hollow plover]

DST and unsynchronized events are not really a serious bug, but it is embarrassing and, you know, "qAlitY" 😅

[hollow goblet]

Quick update, i just hit THREE SCOUTS, & NOT A SINGLE CHEST FROM ALL THREE.

[finite mural]

can happen

[vale gale]

Hit borg token system with your voyager for messages. Scouts are 2022 content.

[humble furnace]

🤔 Borg token system scouts are Ferengi Traders that drop an item for use in the Borg refinery they don’t give faction messages

[crude sandal]

Voyager  borg token systems 🙂

[humble furnace]

This thing?

[crude sandal]

yup

give me 5 and I'll try and get an example

[humble furnace]

Assimilated hostile, Borg yes 🤣 I have never called them Borg hence my confusion. Also only went to the lower system once, then until now totally forgot they existed 😂

[crude sandal]

the ones with faction messages are scanned out like 8472s using the voyager ability

Perhaps unsurprisingly, the client crashed shortly afterwards 😬

[crimson lotus]

@tidal notch - Hey, can we get an increase in the 2k ship kill limit?

[cyan portal]

Load up a loot crew and go to town (or add neelix if your low on juice) one hull gets me months of daily scout pulls for all 3

[spiral tartan]

@vale wasp It would be kinda nice to add server launch dates to the server discord links. I'm wondering why EU-400 isn't in ascension yet but a launch date would certainly help players know if it's around the corner or not. Or is there another source for this information that I've not found?

[hollow goblet]

i'm a loooong way from getting voyager.. thus they need to adjust this sensibly for players who are long from getting it

[spiral tartan]

You could've gotten it last big event store, or do you mean shipyard level?

[karmic meadow]

Heres a thought. If you are looking for ways to shrink the game and make it more efficient...why don't you do a turn in on the next big event store (1 to 1) of any and all old event store currencies to the current one. Would probably help with the bloat of players storage of things that arent being used again...

[quartz rock]

Try this on for size 😐

[hollow socket]

Why do you have so many bells?

[quartz rock]

From ferengi whip

[hollow socket]

Are you not doing the dailies though?

[quartz rock]

I do the dailies I just get so many all the time the amount of bells I get is more than I use

[heavy bridge]

Should just put a timer on all the limited currencies, so they just disappear after the timer and then people wouldn't have to ask if you could reopen the store because they forgot to spend the currency

[crimson lotus]

@pulsar leaf @spare tulip @north perch @torn saffron @crisp dome Hey Devs, just wondering if we could increase the amount of ships we can kill per day. Having 2 ships out all day has me zero'd out and i am not getting loot. This is happening all the time for me and basically takes all the wind out of my sails for playin this game.

[humble furnace]

Or just continue as the post above your post says and forget 😂

[spiral tartan]

That doesn't solve the issue that you end up with 100 of X where minimum spend is 500. I have a few of those.

[heavy bridge]

Gone is gone, no point worrying about what isn't there, though I do agree that you should be able to spend it all, like 1 credit gives 1 lat for those that have extra in a particular store

[cedar crescent]

Hey Scopely. Can we have some epic directives pls? It’s been months since I’ve had enough to launch a single one.

[spiral tartan]

Yeah just occurred to me too. Too focused on the store reopen issue. I like it if the timer is displayed well and observes timezones 😄

[torpid kelp]

pls fix the laggggggggg server 139

[tidal notch]

You know, I hear this a lot. And not sure why we have it capped at 2k. You think 2.5k would enough?

[finite mural]

Double it.

[wild fossil]

Not sure why anyone would waste their time killing 2000 hostiles 🤣 I kill barely a 100 a day and still enjoy the game

[somber orchid]

Think the limit is ok

[wild fossil]

Limit is more then likely to stop cheaters aka bots, osrs and RS3 had over 2 million botters at one point they ruined the in game stock market, 😞 expensive items where worthless and cheap items where to expensive! Thankfully their is no in game trading system on STFC

[finite mural]

Because they keep putting out events that require you to kill more than 2k hostiles. Anyone that grinds rep will easily hit the limit as well.

[humble furnace]

👀 the good old days off seeing hundreds of lvl 3 players chopping down the same tree 😂

[wild fossil]

So either a botter or a no lifer, got it thanks 😹

[ornate rose]

Some ppl play the game they invest in. Don't need to bot to do it. With monaveen and all the ships that need millions of xp. Autogrinding can do it easily

[humble furnace]

I have always been told if you eat your sweets to fast you will have no sweets left till next week” savour and enjoy the sweets and they will last all week. Those who play 24/7 eventually get bored. If you play for a few hours you will never get bored

[ornate rose]

Yeah like i said. Autogrinding can do it easily. U don't need to spend 8 hrs hitting reds. I do 100 in one borg run tho so that's maybe what 15 minutes?

[humble furnace]

With the increased about of grinds added ontop of old grinds yeh, the kill count rakes up. Freebooters is good but it only skips swarm grind. Still need FKR grind for those rss mats. It seems every new thing they bring to skip a grind they just add a new grind making it worse not better 😂

[graceful cedar]

hey, while you're busy not fixing stuff .... could you possibly not fix the issue with getting the "armada limit has been reached for this target" message after running only 1 armada? Thanks in advance for doing nothing at all about it.

[marble vigil]

is scopely ever foing enforce its own TOS?

we have 2 players that scopely has received video of botting and targeting as well in clear violation of the scopely tos and yet they are still there and yet cannot even get a reply from scopely about this, are they scopely employ's being used to try and increase sales? i mean dumbest thing ever but if you wont enforce the tos it is the only reason i can see as a cause to let them continue violating the tos so flagrantly daily

[waxen tinsel]

A high level player with fast ships can kill 100 (maybe more) in a 10-round wave.

Wave hostiles don’t drop loot but they do count against the limit.

So leave your Monaveen out all night and hop in a bunch of waves and you can be well over halfway to the limit before you touch anything else…

[carmine charm]

The hostile cap was introduced due to botting though it does feel outdated with so many extra ships that can autogrind, extra loops,.....

[slender monolith]

It clearly needs to only apply where the player doesn’t initiate

[marble vigil]

@carmine charm outdated? it is a boon for the bots as they do not stop botting anyway, it merely keeps real grinders from getting the hostiles they need to do what they need to daily for the grind with all the continuous new grinds from all the new boats. all they are worried about is keeping the money train rolling they have no concern over the integrity of the game or bugs as long as the money keeps coming in, at least on sever 93

[carmine charm]

eh if anything it should only count when the player initiaties, I see plenty of bots in xindi space for example

[marble vigil]

@slender monolith my whole point they have no intention of enforcing tos at all that is just straight lip service lies

[slender monolith]

That was about the hostile cap. ToS enforcement does happen, but no idea how far players have to go, from either perspective

[tacit hatch]

Well they did enforce the TOS to a point on 93. Trash #1 got a chat ban so he has to use his alt to harass everyone.

[somber orchid]

We have one that’s perm chat banned and gets his alts banned too

[marble vigil]

@tacit hatchlmao they have a video of him botting with a detailed description of how that bot works and still in server and targeting select groups of alliances out of the game, not to mention what he said about wives and children of players there i stand by my statement scopely makes no effort to enforce their tos, they merely pay lip service, and tbh it is so flagrant and blatant i really believe that he is a scopely employ used to generate sales in a very shabby practice

[tacit hatch]

Oh I know it's far too little and it's driving more and more out of the game or off the server. I mean why spend and be the biggest when someone that spends less and is a complete dirtbag is protected by the game makers?

[marble vigil]

@tacit hatch my point precisely they have to be able to something about it i mean no 1 is stupid enough to buy a multi billion dollar company and not afford the security to protect their to investment, that would be tantamount to buying a multi billion dollar cell phone and not buying a case to protect it, so even as ludicrous as it sounds it has to be a scopely employ, strictly shabby business practice indeed

[tacit hatch]

If scopely actually cared they would have removed him. I stead they have lost now 5 other top players and spenders. Protecting the one because of his spending level has cost them 5 others at or near or above his spending level. Yet they do nothing even with all the proof. That's like cutting off an arm to stop the spread of cancer, but it's the arm that doesn't have cancer.

[lusty orchid]

If the NX-01 partial pack had been released 2 weeks ago I'd have bought it. Now I'm at 130 bps I don't think I'll bother. Talk about missing the boat.

[visual oar]

Need better sourcing for for rare and epic armadas. We used to get a regular supply through the battle pass but there’s so much stuff now that it’s almost impossible to acquire enough directives through the chests.

[potent shard]

@vale wasp @tidal notch Why is 89 getting incursion when we are going to be merging?
Don't get me wrong this is all easy win since we destroyed them before already. But still.

[vale wasp]

Doesn't seem related. Incursions is a couple weeks before the merge.

[potent shard]

@vale wasp All other merges I've seen in the past had bye weeks. That's why I asked.

[slender monolith]

Isn’t that usually when incursions is after or within a week of the merge?

[nimble pawn]

77/76 never got a bye before or after our merge

[potent shard]

When I was in server 87. We merged into 86 and had a by week. Also 122-125, and 74-75 all had bye weeks this was back in August of last year.
I'm sure if I looked I'll find more mergers that had bye weeks.

[nimble pawn]

Some do- yes. My point was that is does not appear guaranteed.

[slate chasm]

I thought the w220 voyager mining system was bad but at least rare nodes spawned due to the sheer number of people on there but the w470 one is worse. Haven’t been able to get a single rare in like 12 hours

[potent shard]

Guess it's too much to ask for some consistency from screwply. But it's too logical for them.

[nimble pawn]

https://tenor.com/view/we-dont-do-that-here-black-panther-tchalla-bruce-gif-16558003

[wise maple]

Well if it the same player on our server that was one of the Borg PC winners, it couldn’t have happened to a worse person. Even Scopley’s giveaways cater to the worst of the worst.

[potent shard]

Um...First wrong place to put this and Second, You do know your team have them marked enemies right? That means KOS which means any hit, anywhere, any time. If you can't comprehend that then you shouldn't be playing.

[vocal pollen]

Whatever you did yesterday or tonight - the user interface was extremely slow and bothering before on iOS in the EU. Every time I pressed a button I had to wait for this annoying 2-3 seconds transition via a black „Star Trek“ screen (and you have to press a LOT of buttons to collect everything). This was super annoying and is finally gone today 😃 please remember what you or you server provider did and NEVER change this back! ❤️

[vocal pollen]

Never mind … seems like this was only limited to this morning and the annoying „Star Trek“ transition screen is back for every single button press …

[slender monolith]

When 143 and 151 merged in 2023, we had a bye week, but only for the incursion after the merge.

[humble furnace]

Welcome to the club, been happening for months! Eventually the STFC screen will stop appearing and then game will freeze with the spinning circle ⭕️, plus when that stfc screen pops up a lot you will notice game auto zooms in on the system to the max 🤨

[pale garnet]

think you left your calculators at school when you came here, there is no incentive in rewards to kill silents 44s over silents 41s

[slender monolith]

It gets a little better at higher levels, where the loot gap is bigger, but not a huge amount from what i’ve seen

[spark acorn]

#🌌-galaxy-chat message

[short spear]

Scopely, when do you plan to synchronise event times? Currently we have two reset times as shown below:

[ripe thicket]

Add more flexibility to maxed out specialty ships. Make it simuliar to the fessha.

For the titan, gives us a daily boost on additional command items or even a daily draw of commander shards for the other ones.

For the Cerritos, once maxed out, gives is an option for the parts and a chance at office shards or give us just an officer shard only selection. This way we can work on maxing out the cerritos officers.

For the talios, it is actually good with the options avaliable for other purchases. This is well done.

For the monaveen, give us an option for more favors and/or add a common+ resource daily favor pull.

For the defiant, add the other deep space officers to a daily pull option.

For the fessha, please add the feengi officers as an option or as part of the lat pulls, make it a daily raw clat exchange.

For the voyager, add the officers to a Daily pull. Or at least the rares, the ones critical to the ex-borg repair researches.

This will make these ships daily refines useful after it is maxed out instead of us having more unneeded parts building up in inventory. OR even make it a parts turn in exchange.

[spark acorn]

A mod replied to a question i asked a few days ago. They currently have no intention of fixing said timers.

[short spear]

Thanks! I have no intentions to buy anything from their store then.

[sullen portal]

Since many players using ac more than gc, can you post admin messages also in ac? e.g.

[spark acorn]

This 👆👆

[tropic crown]

Really hate that events are not all resetting at the same time. People keep complaining about it but nothing is done. With all you charge for things in this game you think you could handle that.

[tropic crown]

Please god no.

[humble oracle]

Hey Scopely, when are you going to fix the stupid event timers have two start times? How can this be so difficult for you?

[tropic crown]

Right.

[meager hollow]

someon already tested if loot exo is working?

[blazing kayak]

when can scopely fix the timer of events.. bp and events are at different timings is SUPER ANNOYING.. @tidal notch

[normal ravine]

Can we get Tal added to the Ultra and/or Premium Recruit pools? Not having sourcing for him is super annoying.

[tropic crown]

@tidal notch incursion exos don’t see to be working.

[wet sphinx]

would @tidal notch be the person i would want to contact if im more actively trying to contact scopley about a person violating TOS on my server?

[wet sphinx]

Their customer support page only gives me a chatbot with no phone number to talk to an actual human so im kind of at a loss right now

[finite mural]

follow the directions, and one will get back to you

[somber orchid]

https://discord.com/channels/509679626763632640/916412467628892170

[tidal notch]

Hey! I've heard from players that they should be working. You're not seeing it?

[tidal notch]

Best way to go about that is contacting support.

[orchid gorge]

Hey Scopley the IOS app has started crashing again every 20 mins now, you sorted it last time please can you solve this quickly 👍

[harsh hawk]

@tidal notch Please please bro, you can ask to any dev response of infinite incursions, if S94 will be merged or what Scopely gonna do with us, becouse we have more than 1year and half and no one Incursion started...

[wind shell]

Advanced noticed on who the officers are for the weekend, that's AWESOME @tidal notch! Thank you!

[tidal notch]

I thought those were pretty good picks too!

[wind shell]

Janeway is tier 2 (lvl 10) for me, but Hugh has evaded me. RNG on the epic solo refinery has twice been like "nah, none of him" with the first of those a triple/max pull and the other was a double pull. So with only 6 shards left, this is awesome news! I think most would concur generally solid picks (especially when it gets the unlock or for some promotions)

[timber panther]

But will we get them as bye week servers. We still have not got the exo events running for EU 140.

[tidal notch]

Good question! Will ask.

[restive pawn]

@tidal notch Will there be sms run with the xslb?

[wind shell]

If there was an SMS for folks, that would remove any question about if unpaired servers get the chance to progress on the spend/auction officers. Frankly the SMS should be an always thing, even if it hasn't run with XSLBs traditional it'd be an improve, especially since SLB/XSLB always have a chance of people getting zip from... @restive pawn, usually no, but maybe OH could bring it up as a QOL

[tidal notch]

Bye week servers will get the XSLB too. You'll be paired up with the same server from last weekend.

[timber panther]

Will we also get the exo store, or do we not get last times compensation?

[tidal notch]

Is the exos in the event store what you're asking about? Think that's the comp for not having them run last time.

[restive pawn]

Thanks. I'm on 91. We had a few hectic weeks, have a crazy busy few weeks ahead of us. Had a few ask about the sms mainly for hugh bps so they can plot & plan. Here's to hoping they get an sms 🤞

[timber panther]

@tidal notch yes I know, everybody has them, but EU140 Server does not have the exos store, assuming because we are bye week which seems wrong as we missed them last time too.

[tidal notch]

Oh! Gotcha. Lemme see what I can do!

[timber panther]

Thank you

[tidal notch]

I'm hearing they should be showing up on your server shortly.

[timber panther]

That sound amazing, thank you.

[tidal notch]

Happy to help!

[shrewd breach]

Hey guys where are these xindi armadas I've been afk for awhile and I can't find them

[humble furnace]

Yep on 140 now 💪 thanks

@shrewd breach Somewhere here, you also need to be ops 50+ you could also just search stfc.space… 👍 (recommend posting in “Galaxy Chat” or Players helping players channel for faster responses to queries 👍 this channel for providing feedback

[crystal swallow]

Please make raiding easier. There are too many buttons to click to raid a station. It's already painful to drain a base even with the amagam maxed. So I suggest

1. let ships auto recall after taking a scoop from the base.
2. leave the station popup open so that we only need to hit attack.
3. let more than 1 ship attack the station at the same time.

[humble furnace]

All interesting points all useless. For your 1st point if ship auto recalls it’s going to be hard for defenders to stop you attacking. Your 2nd point makes no sense. 3rd point more then one ship at a time seems like a good idea, but then prevents the player your attacking from ever defending their base against you as they cannot apply shields or move station or do anything whilst under attack. So if multiple attacking at once well that would suck.

Be grateful you have Amalgam, before that was in game you where sending Envoys and Horizons to raid the loot 😂

[charred onyx]

Putting video pop up over top where helps are at is a real annoyance

[rapid pulsar]

Completely agree. I even watched some of it just to get rid of it but the next time I logged in it was back. Too much screen clogging.

[wise temple]

I agree, too. The info videos are a nice addition, but the notification badges are more than annoying.

[rugged scaffold]

how about some QoL features like a "claim all" button, for everything(!!) that is free. Would save a lot of server resources, if you don't have to click through dozens of menues each day to claim everything...

also some "probability checks" would be nice. something like "If you upgrade your ops now, you will need the next tier of a token, you don't have access to, because you have no ship with necessary warprange"? - its still ridiculous, how random, you sometimes get blocked from stuff, without even getting any hint.

[humble furnace]

For everything free they already have a claim all button you need syn 21 you can collect all the daily chests. Every other chest costs something.

[rugged scaffold]

i don't mean gifts only, but also stuff in faction stores and eventstuff and so on. just 1 button, claim everything! 🙂

[humble furnace]

They’re not free though 😂, they all cost something. Wording is key 👌. But yeh it’s great suggestion! Have an option to tick a box on each item you want to collect then a big friendly GREEN button saying click all. Takes almost 30mins plus! To collect everything, even longer if game is glitching out 😬. Plus half the time i forget one or two chests and everything becomes out of sync 😣

[rugged scaffold]

maybe you did not unlock everything yet, but there is a lot of free stuff in faction stores. Swindlers Stash, Defiant amplified claim, Section 31 ciphers, Temporal Disruptors and so on

[humble furnace]

😏 I have all that…..to quote myself “wording is key” 😂

It is likely they would just eventually move those free items in faction store to the daily chests like they did with the FC stuff.

[rugged scaffold]

additionally a button like "Buy all" with a check list behind it, where you can mark everything, what should be bought. And with a button-click everything on that list you checked, is bought.

[crystal swallow]

The only thing useless I see is your response

[humble furnace]

😂 Your funny read your comment to yourself, your suggestions dictate only attackers are allowed to play and defenders can taste your boot 😂 that’s why their useless

[crystal swallow]

And read your comments back to yourself - you could have worded things a bit better. You come off as insulting.

[humble furnace]

If useless is insulting to you? Then no hope for humanity 😔

[crystal swallow]

Furthermore, your response makes no sense

1. you're not going to leave your ship sitting on the other's base you're going to recall it anyway
2. you have to click 3 times to get the other stations base to appear before you can see the attack button again - this is poor UX design. A user should have minimal clicks to get to what they want to achieve.

[humble furnace]

Not sure what you are on about ? You click base once and it appears, then you can click scan or attack. That’s one click! Then one click to attack. Yes your gonna recall it but defenders could attack before you have ability to click that recall button, successfully stopping you from taking those rss back to your base. And also see attached 😂 (useless) it’s not an insult unless you make it one

[crystal swallow]

I have said my peace. If you want to continue to harrass and insult me then thats on you. I hope you have a good Friday

[humble furnace]

😂 why so offensive? I simply made suggestion your suggestions would have a huge impact on the defender. Your the one who took offence.

[marsh tide]

Stop pvp events till better brackets / balance is implemented pvp aspect is pathetic when players with 100s of million power over others are in the same brackets

[woeful nymph]

Nice First Contact Day chest. Not being ironic or sarcastic. Genuinely good

[slender monolith]

Free stuff is nice, only 199 more Neelixs to go…

[neat moss]

sad to see Harry Kim excluded again...over the last couple of months we've had opportunities to earn shards for every other Voyager officer except him

[icy summit]

He's not supposed to be promoted in any way :p

[humble furnace]

Fully source able here, get these credits from defeating formation armadas

[neat moss]

yeah, thats not at all what I was talking about

[humble furnace]

Also why they gave Tuvok, Paris and Neelix for first contact makes no sense? First contact was between humans and Vulcans in 2063 neither of these where around in the 21st century (their from 24th). You would think they would give some NX-01 officers such as Archer , Tucker and Tpol. Giving Picard shards would have also made sense as the enterprise went back in time just before first contact day

[slender monolith]

Because it’s a coincidence , Neelix hates Tom for flirting with Kes, and then there’s Tuvix. The less said about why Janeway absolutely did the right thing, the better.

[humble furnace]

🤔 those events don’t line up with first contact day? How is that a coincidence

[slender monolith]

Coincidental love triangle? No idea lol.

[jaunty prism]

Stop replacing my alliance help button with links to your YouTube videos! I do not care! Stop trying to pump your YouTube views up!

[humble furnace]

Valentine’s Day gift would make sense for these 3 😂 or a Janeway/Paris chest with a lizard avator 😉

[tropic crown]

Lag feast today.

[inner garden]

what a wonderful game

[peak fox]

Any chance you all at scopley could maybe one time focus on all the bugs and not push broken new content? asking for a friend.

[umbral thistle]

Text version of the sneak peek for people who don't want to watch videos? Not sure why that needs to be said every single release of something new.

[jaunty prism]

2 videos in one day? I'm not going to watch your videos, stop! If I had a button that would let me give your YouTube channel negative views I would press it all day long until you remove this feature.

[wild fossil]

Open YouTube then you can post your reviews and dislike button on the video

[jaunty prism]

Because they want us to artificially inflate their YouTube channel and use it for free marketing.
Also @wild fossil that still counts as engagement.

[wild fossil]

Using their official discord also counts 😉

[shadow elbow]

Tough but fair. Also why is he the moral office when Neelix was literally the Voyager Moral Officer?

[main meteor]

i see no gift tab?

[limber mesa]

no text that isn't also in the title, just action scenes with SNW officer models from the game.
ends with a quick view of the back of the SNW enterprise.

[umbral thistle]

Thanks, should pay you for doing their job for them 🍻

[crystal dew]

Why do these stupid new videos never go away? I've clicked on them multiple times.

[cedar magnet]

Scoply loves the PVP spend to win events maybe those of us who are not psycho should just quit this overpriced clunky game. So sad you come into the game thinking of the potential and you meet great folks only to realize everyone is being held hostage to the developers and the whales

[tacit kayak]

Ingame google play store is a scam. No multiphasic credits and no warning or advertisement for better packs available elsewhere.

[slender monolith]

The multiphasics are only available from the webstore, always has been that way.

[tacit kayak]

Same name, same amount of money for worse packs and no warning makes it unfair to costumers.

[slender monolith]

“Worse packs”? Are the packs in the android, apple and webstore not the same content? If you prefer getting a bonus using the webstore, buy from it directly.

[tacit kayak]

Bunus is big enough to make em considerably worse yes. If there was information for that ingame id gladly do it.

[slender monolith]

They have definitely mentioned it, but possibly not since the PC version launched, then possibly again with the Mac version. Pointing players at 3rd party payments in game is something Apple doesn’t allow, maybe Google is the same, but since it’s a multiplatform game, it’s easier to avoid it than have to handle messages and announcements differently.

[proven hound]

@royal solar can you guys please get some kind of daily claim preset? The vast amount of chests and refinery options is a real pain in the finger. It takes more than half an hour to claim all the things over a day and it would be much appreciated if this can be reduced to a minimum.
Thanks and have a great weekend.
LLAP

[sacred garden]

I give up on trying to understand scopley math for this game. It’s like all over the place. Since it t seemed like abilities is foremost yet officers with no captain abilities can beat a full crew of officers with abilities doesn’t make no since none of the math adds up.

[hollow root]

Just to understand, don't you want to align the schedules anymore?
today we had 17 end incrusion 18 start flash pass and some events and 19 daily events? 🙈 🙈

[willow delta]

Faction hunt and Cosmic cleanup?
And Cosmic Cleanup starts 1h after Faction Hunt, so doing things twice.
Pls. allign the times again as it was all the years.

[next haven]

The potential benefit of going through apple or google is there is a chance at a refund if you show scopely is not holding up. If you buy from the stfc store there is no chance at a refund outside of court, even then maybe not

[slender monolith]

You can request refunds via Xsolla, and just as with the app stores, what happens afterwards i don’t know, mobile game companies aren’t big on letting you have free stuff.

[gilded adder]

I've hit level 28 and it's ruined the game... I'm being put against level 40s in the events... its literally pointless to attempt competing 😒 so this has likely killed the game for me entirely... so cheers for wasting my time

[humble furnace]

Online the daily officer/recuirt/station events. The main events you will be in lower brackets
