[tulip fossil]

they mean the end of this arc or BP

[umbral thistle]

"If they didn't test things nothing would work" - Eco 2023 🤣

What we need to forget is 90% of stuff doesn't work correctly at launch or breaks something else.

[sly holly]

@north perch @crisp dome Hope all is well...When the last treasury came out, I had 3,996 desealing rods that I earned from the monthly chests.... Now I only have 680 desealing rods.... I've NEVER opened up the treasury due to not having enough... This time I would have had enough.... your assistance with this would be greatly appreciated

[raven jacinth]

Not liking this double clicking situation

[silent hollow]

They already said it's a bug they intend to fix. Unfortunately it means a few weeks before the next update

[ancient sandal]

the 10% of it working is the credit card swipe on the shop i assume their testing is limited to this part of new content as well

[charred ravine]

**After buying every the wave bp in the past, I think I should not buy this one. **

Because it provides a lot faction (which I don't need, its maxed) and a lot of ciphers (which I don't need right now, I don't find the time to run as many waves as I would like). So what is left is not worth 23eur, its perhaps 9eur at best.

[carmine charm]

It isn't a bug

[slender monolith]

Indeed, not all unintended things are bugs, some are just happy little accidents

[harsh thunder]

I'm pulling my daily chests and I'm not being shown the results. How do I know I actually received anything?

[muted shuttle]

You think they test anything😂😂😂😂

[torpid cargo]

Dont remove the chipers, I want to run as many as I can to get the credits. Please remove the rep and replace that with credits. Maxed on rep and would like something else.

[kind minnow]

its exceptionally buggy in waves

[glacial spruce]

So it's a day that ends in a "Y"

[stark lintel]

@tacit obsidian If Scopely is looking for more engagement (as is evidenced by the ridiculous amount of $$$ packs recently) perhaps you should try providing more free paths for existing content and fixing issues. Personally I'd buy more packs if it didn't feel like EVERYTHING required a $$ pack to engage in it. I mean you're offering packs for Jaylah and there is STILL no in-game viable way to source her years after she was released. The Kirshara $100 to unlock Artifact is buggy as all getup as well. Don't even get me started on the 30+ year timeframe for upgrading the War Room. Not seeing the "Quality" yet this year.

[proper verge]

general feedback? The automated support chat sucks

[wooden spire]

Day 6 of staying away from this awful game. Just like when quitting cigarettes, it gets easier each day. I’m getting more real life things done, doing more things I really do enjoy instead of with this game - telling myself I enjoy it when actually it’s a very stressful, pointless absolute drag of button pressing and grinding with no real goal. I’m serious, lower stress levels. It’s an addiction, not a pleasurable hobby. You can all do it.

[mild cobalt]

For almost every level 52 plus the biggest roadblock for the next level is rare G5. However, even at level 58 99% of the prime packs do not include rare G5, only common and uncommon. So I don't buy them. If you're going to fill those packs with piles of crap in order to justify a $99 price tag, some of it has to be actually useful or it's just 99 bucks for the prime and everything else goes into the inventory and gets forgotten about. It's just fluff, and everyone can see that. That's not worth $99. I mean honestly none of them are ever worth $99, but I can't even pretend they are to convince myself to buy one without the rare G5.

[cosmic knoll]

scopely have no idea what sells, all thanks to certain whales buying up whatever comes out regardless of content. the game will close long before scopely apologise for being wrong

[coarse sundial]

o looking at clander I see incusions on 26th surealy thats bad timing with terrtioy reset on 24Th so would this be error as normal round 3rd every moth please can we have some clear up on this manythanks

[finite mural]

Rest is 23rd, incursion is 26th, it's intended, on top of the war room running that week

[somber orchid]

So carnage

[coarse sundial]

ok just seams odd we have enoth lag as it is with events and then incursions on top lets hope they fix some bugs 🤣

[median owl]

make it so you can pick the shards you need 4 officers (i need 4 more 2 unlock PIKE)

[shell jungle]

the team is really doing a great job making the server merge a royal pain in the ass.... 88 has been preparing for this for every stupid goddamn delay

[livid pasture]

🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Why do you keep delaying the merge? STOP WITH THAT! Just do it now!!!

[rare vale]

Or, hear me out, don't do the merge?

[vivid venture]

😂

[vocal basin]

Literally had 3600 resealing rods last time we had treasury event. Now I have 1000. Should have been able to open the treasury today. Grrrrr.

[livid pasture]

It’s been desperately needed for months. And I doubt we’ll actually be good with only one merge.

[prime socket]

63 is already the combination of 4 original servers.

[tough orbit]

Ffs, I wish they provided a daily hostile hit tally or something so I can see when I’m going to stop getting loot etc

[fossil bolt]

I really don’t understand the people complaining about Scopely creativity…. You have to admit that they always find a special description for the most useless things. I spent money on upgrading the war chest, I just imagine how insanely crappy the returns in the chest would be for someone that (very wisely) didn’t spend money on that thing. It’s really a bag of crap🤣Scopely just always finds a new lipstick to put on the pig😂😂😂this lipstick color is called GLORIOUS😂😂😂

[median owl]

make it easyer 2 get independent credits i maen get real 43K dedoded data ,and you only get 4k + augument credit,then need a lor of aug credit 2 get 50 ind

[crude sandal]

Vidar Talios

[somber orchid]

And the prime makes it better

[spark flume]

So a hot fix to fix paid prime but a full client release to fix the faction store. Quality of Quantity

[hollow narwhal]

@here My anti-virus just caught the Windows app (prime.exe) trying to open a pdf document on my PC... So now Scopely is spying on us too?

[crude sandal]

Any particular PDF?

[hollow narwhal]

Yes - a file that is not even close to the game folder. It's a file on OneDrive and it contains personal information.

[surreal island]

is there maintenance going on right now?

nm

[main river]

s172 lots of error code 5. Unplayable.

[valid lagoon]

Server down?

[knotty lark]

Must be - my game crashed to desktop, and now fails to load at 91% 🤦‍♂️

[icy patio]

same, time for yardwork

[cyan arch]

s184 it was very laggy. system kicked me out now I can't log back in.

[sharp yarrow]

yay lets crash the game with an up date back to gettign constant error code 5's again cant do anything

[drowsy igloo]

hello there

[main river]

Even if you can get in, you touch anything on screen and it crashes.

[tame sphinx]

Well... at least I see I am not the only one that can't get in. It's a good thing there aren't any events ending in a few hours or anything.

[torn mountain]

i have the same issue.

[sinful grotto]

I installed the hotfix this morning on Android and PC. I am now unable to login.

[unreal sierra]

dont worry - Scopely said everyone gets a free shard of Kirk as compensation gift

[wind grotto]

Yes the whole game crashed even for people who didn’t do the update

[sinful bone]

Server 76 down? cant login from any device

[sand sun]

all servers down

[wanton phoenix]

Cannot login 135

[vapid bough]

think they finally closed the game down for good XD

[warm crow]

Maybe scopely should lt bugs be bugs and not try to fixed them

[sharp yarrow]

hey we need to fix the broken artifact that nobody asked for and break the rest of the game trying to fix our new atm. do you people test anything before just pressing the red button?

[harsh thunder]

Anyone else not seeing what they receive in chest pulls? Had this problem yesterday.

[chilly heron]

It kicked me off the server then tells me there's too many logins...typical 😒

[vale orchid]

you wish xD
Nah they'll just ruin our events - again - and compensate us with 100lat and 10x 3* mats (green)... as usual 😄

[knotty lark]

Yeah - it started happening just before the game booted to desktop

[left flume]

Qualityyyyyyyyy

[winged burrow]

Pc keeps crashing with new patch. My tablet works fine because I didn't patch it...lol

[icy patio]

is the pdf open? it's not unusual for apps to scan other open apps/files that are open for profiling (performance/security)

[woeful rapids]

excellent hotfix, boot everyone out of game, great work

[faint vapor]

Y’all.

[dull ingot]

Keep getting booted out

[quick harness]

what's happening? unable to log into the game - and I'm not the only one...

[half saffron]

No login after update possible

[random folio]

best guess is all US servers crashed

[hoary obsidian]

eu servers crashed too, or have issues ... I can't get in server 130 EU, my son is still playing

Of this atrocity anyway 👀 very evil cat 🐱👀…. Has scopely Inc. on her collar 🐱👀

[vapid bough]

said to someone on my server today getting banned from the game is less a punishment than getting to continue playing XD

[faint vapor]

Scopely. Functionality continues to get progressively worse while we are charged more for less benefits. This game is quickly becoming not worth the time or monetary investment. Please reconsider your priorities.

[knotty lark]

I've never seen it until now, but then I very rarely post anything, so that might be why 😄

[idle pewter]

Scopely IT should be on performance related pay with a selected group of customers (us) having a say in partnership with scopely management

[little cradle]

faction store purchases not reponding with claim screen showing what you purchased even if its rng

[echo basin]

borked

[bronze granite]

yeah i was coming here to check .. and yup

[dense belfry]

Can the information be added back in the ultra recruit pack but also in the galactic recruit and any other pack where its currently missing.🙏

[hollow narwhal]

No - the only program that was running was STFC (except for background antivirus and other tasks). I wonder what Scopely will have to pay for an attempted theft of Personal Information in the EU...

[mossy harness]

do you guys know why can't i transfer myself in another universe ?

[bronze granite]

scopely will blame new Kin'sara artifact for causing too many clicks on server

[sinful walrus]

We expect these issues to be fixed with today's client update. We'll notify you as soon as it's available in the stores, so be sure to update your client to access these fixes
How about notifying of the update as promised instead of getting booted from the game and forcing the update?

[sinful socket]

I did the update on Samsung and now it gets stuck loading in.

[vapid bough]

deffo should be a compo box for this

[hidden cedar]

Stuck on "adjusting" screen since the update download

[dusky wind]

Alliance why don't you like waves?

Starts waves ..... Error 5 every time I click on something followed by connection error...

Yeah that would be why

[slender monolith]

Do you not sacrifice a goat each time you start one?

[tranquil fractal]

Still can't load the PC version, I hit play and a little popup comes up so fast that I can't read what it says.

[sinful walrus]

Please check your internet connection
Nothing wrong with my connection, it's on your server end. And it súcks worse when you're trying to do waves when it goes down.

[ocean wagon]

Anyone else having issues loading game? And I done see update released yet

[hidden cedar]

Got a data limit pop-up which I thought was turned off and as soon as it was cleared the game logged in

[steep socket]

Queuing is an awesome feature but the one annoying thing about queuing.. ships move… it should target the closest one in the queue and not flying more than it has to back and forth

[ocean wagon]

Tried mobile and pc

Nope ain’t connecting just game broke

[bronze granite]

so SCOPELY you going to give refund for Kir'shara for not working properly

[tranquil ermine]

Feature Request
Ability to turn off event progress banners

[tulip fossil]

and the Voyager refit that they won't fix, everything else gets fixed though

[molten jungle]

Of all the random BP currencies you include for buildings, would it be possible to put in the command center currency?

[tardy crest]

I'm also having issues with the Windows version of the game. It won't launch after the last update. And when I try "repair" it fails with an "unpacking error"

and why on earth is there no way to make a support ticket for something Scopely didn't anticipate needing a support option?

[finite mural]

when using the chat box, just type in the issue and they'll get back to you

[tardy crest]

I did, it asked for account info then I eventually was able to tell it "technical issues" and the closest option of the next question was "game crash" then it wanted to know the last action before the crash, but there was no last action because it won't launch.

[silk charm]

sounds like the last action is "Attempting to launch"

[tardy crest]

yes, but that isn't an option

[echo basin]

Pretty sure that slogan is on the side of HQ over there

[real shale]

Scopely, can you explain the logic in a 21+ lvl difference for a PvP range? My 2M Stella getting hit by a 1.1B Sanctus, for some crazy reason, doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

[kindred hamlet]

This is as far as I can get since the update

[tulip fossil]

do you really want to go any further lol

[tardy crest]

I finally got "repair" to work and now it launches on PC

[runic narwhal]

This is a question directed at the Devs, @spare tulip , @crisp dome , and the Mods @surreal condor , @dawn nexus and @crude sandal
I have a friend who is new to the game that plays on their Ipad. They have been playing for only a few weeks and they don't have discord.

For the last several days this friend has not been able to use their ships. They "Launch" but then they get "error-0". It happens no matter how they try to launch their ships, in system, to another system, to a mining node, etc. When the error code flashes the ships show out of dock (no home under them) but they can't move, error-0, can't recall, error-0, nothing. They have to go out, and come back into the game and the ships are back in base.

Do any of the Devs, Mods, or anyone else here know what "error-0" is? Scopely support says they have received similar complaints, but apparently do not know how to correct it. Any information at all would be helpful and appreciated by my friend.

They have an open Scopely ticket, #22371004

[livid pasture]

Can we please get a “refine all” button here?

[bronze axle]

30% chance for the big gun to fire on the xindi aquatic is bs. 7 times in a row it fired.

[vale wasp]

While possible, it's extremely unlikely to happen to you. I'd confirm that the killing blow is 7b damage for each fight. If a 1-200m damage shot was the killing blow, then you're not dying to the 30% death ray, but to an earlier gun.

[bronze axle]

8 times in a row

[bronze axle]

9 times now and I’m out of tokens. I checked the battle log for all of them. I got that good rng.

[dense prawn]

its like the 5% chance of a full pull from the ultra tokens, so on average 1 in 20 should result in a full pull, but its more like 1 in 100 at best for me over the past several years.

[nova sierra]

When alliance members have reached max reputation they should get something else in exchange for the reputation from chest pulls since that reputation no longer has any benefit. Also it would be nice to see alliance starbase becoming more centered around a PvP event of some sort. Right now there isn’t a lot of incentive to assault a starbase.

[olive shore]

ISOMatter refinery is very poor pay-out for all the effort

[wise tide]

I’m assuming you’re using the Leslie crew trick. Check that you’re not hitting too high. I’m sure I saw someone say that if you do and the fight is going to go over the 100 round limit it will just big gun you round 1 by default

[sour dew]

Gorn Hostiles are a waste of time if you're a LVL 38 and don't have Prime Iso Damage.

[wise tide]

Do you have Janeway?

[sour dew]

Been a struggle to obtain the last 8 shards for Janeway

[warm gulch]

try beverly crusher e data gorkon below hugh tendi e troy odo tom paris and the other put defence stats in (kirk, adm. marcus)

[wise tide]

Once you have her you pretty much have the best f2p crew you could have for them. She makes a big difference

[warm gulch]

if you havnt hugh xchange gorkon with kahn
if beverly dosnt work you can try to xchange her with snw ortegas

[sour dew]

SNW and TOS and Enterprise were the only Shows that introduced the Gorn. Janeway and Ent-E Had no interaction with the Gorn which makes this event questionable as to the actual Crews needed in game.

[limber mesa]

it's based on that crew being particularly effective against gorn ships.
and the SNW enterprise crewmembers, kirk, and archer dealt with gorn crew, no reason they'd be any more effective against gorn ships than the people in control of the most advanced starships in the series.

[bronze axle]

I feel like something should be off. But I’ve used the same crew before on the same hostile level. And it took 7 times last time. Just bad rng.

[grizzled cove]

Someone took the 'whale' analogy too far: Whales eat krill.

[dusky wind]

Could we maybe fix the lag?

[bright frigate]

Would it be possible to make the ship skins a bit less pixelated or higher mesh texture? Doesn't matter if on PC with a 4090 or mobile...
Tactical cubes should be sharp and crisp don't we think?

[civic haven]

It is in incredibly poor taste for a game with chronic QOL issues to sell a QOL improvement (albeit a broken one) like the new artifact.

[tropic helm]

Money grab at its finest

[civic haven]

It’s fine for a business to make money. For my part, I applaud Scopely for holding inflation at bay for as long as they have. I have played similar games and got FTP’d out no later than 2 years or so (been playing this just over 5 years). But this is not what should be monetized.

[tropic helm]

That why I called it a money grab. Yes a business goal is to be profitable but idk it just seems like they want to get blood from a turnip

[lavish hollow]

Hey Scopely, is it satisfying how the players are running away in droves?

[ancient sandal]

more primes to help the whale ships in pvp 😱 🥳

[grizzled cove]

More War Room events are coming soon. Did the forced PvP problem get fixed?

[livid pasture]

No forced PvP. Bubble up and stay in your station. The galaxy isn’t always a friendly place.

[grizzled cove]

Don't be silly. Do people really need to say "if you want to continue to play the game" every time they say "forced PvP"?

[stuck burrow]

[gaunt tartan]

what is use of Artefact shards once you Reach L14 on it? Because it start require Temporal remnants instead, but still getting more Artefact shards. Is it another thing that will just be piling up in inventory?

Nevermind it shows up when there is excess in inventory.

[unreal sierra]

Get a clue, this month incursion is garbage you guys just suck all around

[hollow laurel]

...and again iam waiting since about 10 minutes for an 41 silent in Aethera Nova💩 🤮

[rough belfry]

Can we please not get ciphers for every single milestone of the WD season pass? Even just doing the free pass, it's impossible to keep up. The paid path awards even more. It's almost like you expect people to only beat 1 wave at a time or something.

[finite mural]

would prefer more ciphers over the rep, about half the bp is useless to a lot of people because of that

[rough belfry]

Ciphers are ok to a point. But when I can complete all the milestones on 1 WD, it's a bit extreme. Scopley scaled down the requirements for the milestones but didn't adjust the rewards, so now we get too many ciphers.

[red cliff]

No extra ciphers is better for a lot of heavy players because you can always use extra Credits via officer shard rewards. More rep is useless. Now what"is an issue is that doing 10 waves take kinda too long. If they can start at wave 5 or something if power is more than X would be ideal. So some idea like double the cipher cost for 50% high rewards. It's more that we need a better faster way to use ciphers than we should have less

[rough belfry]

I'm not asking for more rep. Just something else besides 100 ciphers for every turn in. Or maybe a system where you can spend extra ciphers to start at later waves.

Like maybe 300 ciphers starts you at wave 3, 500 at wave 5. Even if you don't get the rewards for beating the earlier waves and only get rewards for the waves you do play.

[red cliff]

I rather a system of spending extra ciphers as a multiplier on rewards. 200 for 150%, 300 for 200%, etc

[echo sable]

I figure the best way to use those extra ciphers would be for strong/whale players to help their alliance/server mates complete the BP

[rough belfry]

@red cliff More rewards for less effort, that's never going to happen. Even if the cost is higher.

@echo sable we have been trying to organize something like that and it's tough to get people online at same time to do WD. I like the idea though

[limber oriole]

Clear data from your app. Helps me

[midnight timber]

The Kir’shara artifact needs work. It works well enough single ship in system (except when the target hits spawn point it loses the command), but 2 or more ships in system it doesn’t work well. Especially for waves.

When I set 1st ship to hit multiple targets and then try to attack with 2nd ship it resets the targets of 1st ship.

[red cliff]

It's kinda pathetic and all more indicative of the quality of their programmers that then can fumble shift queueing this badly

[lucid scaffold]

Have you seen the guys in the videos ? They look like Scopely had them chained to a desk and not seen the light in a long time.

The Devs are from fiver.

[acoustic cloud]

@tacit obsidian @tidal notch
Can you guys correct the error on in-game splash screen?

It should say "star trek Menu Clicker Commander" instead of fleet commander.

There's no time left to play the game after clicking through all the darned refinery menus.

[winter sigil]

Is there an ETA on when the Kir'Shara artifact bug is going to be fixed? It's causing me to experience Klingon rage and I fear for the safety of those around me.

[nova sierra]

The UI experience for hostile queuing is terrible. Simply putting a number for the count of hostiles in queue isn’t great. Really the entire game UI could use an overhaul.

[summer cloak]

i dont know why the game tell me make a survey, and after when im on the last step, tells me my phone no is valid bcs im not from US -_-

[livid pasture]

Aren’t the rewards for the new missions great… 🤦‍♂️
Is it that hard to give us shards for the new officers? Don’t be so stingy.

[tough stream]

My suggestion is customer service pull their finger out and stop making us go round in loops. Also to stop lying saying they can't do certain things when they just did it for others. This has become a joke. 8 tickets later multiple members of staff and still in the same position.

Locked out of account and telling me to log in to fix it?! Hmm how can I log in to fix it if I'm locked out of account. Can't even get passed the email stage to type in password in. Doesn't matter how many devices I have tried to log in with its still the same situation

[young cliff]

Can we get a way to toggle the Kir'shaara off for waves? It causes far more problems than it's worth.

[placid rain]

Have scopely ever thought about having a colour blind setting for players who struggle with this? We have one person in our alliance who is colour blind, and they really struggle with seeing rings around approaching hostiles etc. It would be great if accessibility for this could be added 🙂 @vale wasp xx

[tame sphinx]

And... now I can't login. What gives?

[tame sphinx]

So... I just got in only to find my ship on the way to an armada has been sent home - and that I can't attack hostiles. Seriously, how hard is this to get right???
Then, I finally got my ship to the system with the armada only to find out I can't view the system to join the armada.
Scopely! Stop hiring crack addicts to code this thing!

The idea behind the Shakira artifact is really cool if it worked as intended, but having to manage constantly breaking queues is making wave defense harder than without the artifact.
Hope this will get fixed soon as I can't switch the artifact off

[jaunty prism]

Why the heck am I, an ops 34 who barely ever places in daily SLBs, in the same bracket as an ops 48?? I've seen some ridiculous brackets but this truly takes the cake. That's like me being put in a bracket with a bunch of ops 20 players.

[pale garnet]

suggestion, stop increasing the syndicate heroic bottom target every month, it's bad enough trying to reach as it was, you keep making it harder, that soon the only way to reach the bottom target would be to actually buy syndicate points with cash, talk about corporate corruption and greed

[heady shadow]

These spend events are straight trash now, the points we get is a joke.

[dusty token]

Same reason I am ops 53 on a board with ops 69 guys. Also, last week the top spend event was 16.2 points. This time is 19.8. Same ops last month was 11.5 and the month before that was 8M.

Scopely has this weird notion that there aren't enough ops 60 people to give them their own bracket, so they stuck them on with the 50s and then score the g6 and g7 stuff higher than the g5 and g4 stuff. So the 60s get the new crew and the lower end of the bracket doesn't. If they were on their own board, they would still get the new crew. Lower levels get nothing.

[forest maple]

Same prob being ops57, competing against whales up to lvl70

[junior sierra]

Been said a million times. Silent is NOT fun. It incredibly frustrating. It’s always all 49’s in Orinthus Prime a lvl 46 system. It’s Boring and a Chore. Completion metics are not popularity metrics. Just because we do something does not mean we like it. Why can’t you fix the balance or tweak the spawn timers? Are you guys even looking into it? @tidal notch

[quartz jolt]

It's similar to cutting off SLB rewards at top 10 only and adding more SLBs - the same top 10 appear on all the boards since they're the P2W/supergrind crowd. Now after shifting SLB rewards and mat spend points, it's hardly worthwhile to participate as a F2P or battlepass player.

[last nest]

yep they dont care spenders will continue to win and as long as money is flowing from $99 packs you $20 pack buyers will get nothing 🙂

[broken shale]

Are the timers ever gonna sync back up?

[finite mural]

lol...

[slender monolith]

It gets ever so slightly more exciting when you can finally kill the 49s

[vale wasp]

They should when DST switches again. Haven't seen any indication they're going to try to do it before then.

[broken shale]

That’s annoying.

[sacred garden]

It’s interesting how for this one you litterly have to hit either the Texas class or Texas class supply ship. Auto grinding by fighting Texas class sentries won’t even do anything for this. Which personally I find stupid since Texas class sentries are still Texas class. So if ones is trying to get this one you litterly have to spend the hours in these systems grinding them. I do mean Hours!!!

[junior sierra]

juice anint worth the squeeze. Voyager either. Complete joke and out of touch......

[slender monolith]

The sentries have their own entry

[sacred garden]

Like how the war room but reads, the only ones that going to have it matching ops in lvl are the whales who feel they have to buy everything

[sacred garden]

This seems weird to me, shouldn’t this have reset already? Or did they change this running bit without saying anything?

[visual egret]

This is a suggestion for stfc.space. They could use a legend on their pages that say what all the little symbols and codes mean. For example on the ship pages they are marked as C, R, E and what have you. This means very little to a new player.

[sacred garden]

Of course like always scopley comes out with new primes , yet screw over free to play by making it a pay to get

[vocal widget]

Primes are always p2p. Always have been.

[lime socket]

The wave defense events run for three days

[glacial spruce]

No, they haven't been. That's new as of the last 2 years or so. All primes, refits, etc. used to have a f2p path.

[pale garnet]

why has the d'vor refinery parts and lat seperated from each other, now costing double the amount of raw lat to convert than before

[quaint haven]

Constant crashing is getting real old again

[paper flame]

Great, app was running better for only 3 weeks for players without android 13. Yet I have to restart it every 30 minutes, very boring! ...and I can't understand too why you guys are still going to make it bigger n bigger, because bigger means more loading n work times???? You should try it in a German internet! It must crash! Doesn't matter how high your internet down\upstream is!

[vocal widget]

Wrong, 99% of all primes have been pay walled. It's only recently they've given ginerers pathways to them, especially on day one. I've been playing since day one. But sure, you know everything. 🙄

[slender monolith]

Except all the free primes, the ones that use rss, g3, 4 and 5 mats…

[vocal widget]

But those are not available to you day one for free. Those are available when you go up levels. As a g1 player you will have no access to g3 materials.

[slender monolith]

But free is free, it’s still a f2p path if it requires time to collect, impatience gets people to buy them early.

[last nest]

day one and being wrong alot more primes would be available free if they still only were gas/ore/crystal and obtainable but yall keep giving them money for primes so why would they not feed the monkeys

[spark flume]

So when they merged us they recalculated every leaderboard, Including the in progress Mbenga board... Way to go!

[glacial spruce]

All primes used to have a free path. They were originally based on g3, g4 mats. It wasn't until later that they added special "prime" materials. Granted, it took time to get to the level where you could get those mats and refine them. But the path was there.

You either started playing after me, or just don't remember.

[vocal widget]

I'm a day one player. I know they were normal materials. All I'm saying is, primes were always initially pay walled. Recently, Scopely is starting to give drips of prime materials for a limited amount of the primes. However, primes were always premium access. It sucks, but it is what it is.

[glacial spruce]

Yeah, but now the primes are truly paywalled. At least in the past you could still get them. Well, everything actually, if you were patient. That's no longer the case.

[vocal widget]

Again, they've started to provide drips of some of the special prime materials in the past year. Is it a panacea to solve the prime "issue" they created? NO. But it is a start. The dolomite is coming daily and the other currency is also slow dripping, so they've started to address the issue. I hope they add more access to the multitude of prime currencies, but if they don't, I'll survive. I'm a low spender, so I'm not going to fret one way or another. It it happens, great. But I'll just play the game as best as I can. I'm never going to compete with the whales.

[glacial spruce]

You make no sense. You first stated, "Primes are always p2p. Always have been.'

I pointed out you're incorrect. Then you state they used to be normal mats. Hence not paywalled.

There were Primes you could get very early on free. And if you had been playing awhile when they were first introduced, you could in fact get them on day one using mats uou already had. That is no longer the case for new primes.

I'm f2p now, and have been since July 2022. So I feel the pinch of Scopely's greed. Sadly, they're killing a huge money maker by trying to turn a bigger profit.

[vocal widget]

Primes are p2p. Eventually you may or may not have access to them. Always have been this way since they introduced the special currencies. This isn't really that hard to track with. Are you always this pedantic? I'm done. If you want to be Mr. I'M ALWAYS RIGHT. It's all you. You're correct. Everything you say is always right. I'm so sorry for going against your word. Please forgive me. /sarcasm

Yes scopely is very shortsighted and is now rapidly destroying the entire game. I've seen more long-time players leaving server 13 in the past two months it's scary. This is the last message I'm going to be going back and forth with you.

[round shard]

I'm at Ops 41 and my Feesha is just at tier 9.

The next tier up is at Ops51 and I'll have enough parts for the entire tier in 82 days.

Please add a latinum only option for Concentrated Latinum at tier 9 as otherwise I'll have so many more parts than I could possibly use by the time I get to Ops51.

[finite mural]

there is one, at max tier, no reason to have it before that.

[timid prairie]

Has anyone ever calculated how long it takes to get the war room to level 60? 🤔 Just asking for a friend 🤭 I told him never. He said in 10 years. The war chests have no relevance to me before this level. It's really funny that Scopely brings this crap into the game 🤦

[lime socket]

You just moved the goalposts to the point where you agree with him, whether you realized it or not. You told him he was wrong for saying primes used to have a f2p path before they added all the special currencies, and now you’re saying they’ve been p2p since they added the special currencies. That’s not being pedantic, it was the whole point.

[errant brook]

there was a calculation with ~ 7200 days for OPS ~60 assuming weekly war-room Events 😄

[timid prairie]

My statement of "never" is close 🙄

[fair jolt]

By current design it would take way longer than 10 years....but if they have not learnt from the feedback to the previous run and are still going to encourage EMKs for warroom events, at least my server will be mostly empty by weekend anyways....Fingers crossed that they will regulate pvp this time

[rough belfry]

In regards to the war and time to level, dont worry next month they will release some new ship that rewards Emblems for the war room as part of yet another new grind/timegate thing. It'll probably be based on blowing up other player's ships outside of ROE too just for fun. /sarcasm

BTW Scopely, don't use this for inspiration for anything, it's a bad idea simply used to illustrate just how horrible your content planning has been this past year or so.

[slender monolith]

There was mention of additional sources via events

[torpid cargo]

Yep, or when they do DS9 again this year, there will be a favor that reweards building material and emblems. Also they tend to throw it in the battle pass for a few months after the arc is over. I hope they replace the shaped memory alloy for War room stuff in next months battle pass.

[nova sierra]

Where’s my war chest at?! I just wanted one PvP oriented event/arc and yall ruined it!

[finite mural]

tomorrow

[woeful rapids]

<@&509690795536941056> when are you gonna line up events so they all start at reset again? It surely is not difficult to do, this happens every single time the clocks change and it's beyond ridiculous, it's as simple as starting the events an hour earlier one day and overlapping them with events from the day before, I am at a loss as to why you all struggle so much with this it's gotta be one of the most simple concepts in existence

[rough belfry]

Hmm...mined 5 million con lat, completed the Master Surveyor BP event but didn't score at all for the Lat Rush event.

[limber mesa]

did you do it before or after 2nd event reset?

[stark lintel]

They’ve answered this a few times. They aren’t going to line them up. When Daylight savings changes again in November, they’ll line up again. It’s stupid, but that’s what they’re doing.

[limber remnant]

Thanks $copely for adding over 700 people to our server 84. Making us fight for every little resource we can find! Over 100 whales so us level 40 don't have a chance at anything. Forcing constant war is not why I have been playing for the last two years. I think I'm done with your force people to buy or die mentally.

[urban fable]

Translated into “we can’t be bothered”. Now when they do the daylight savings prime for $99.99 then it will be worth the effort. But will probably end up being a timeszone battlepass you have to buy 2x a year.

[woeful rapids]

that is a height of laziness that I didn't even think scopely would achieve

[open tulip]

Hey all. I have not played this game in many years. Is it worth it to come back?

I had bells left over from yesterday and gotten these today. I didn’t pull my free bells today. I just used 175 bells which from what I had and what I gotten left me with 25 bells so why the heck can’t I pull my 80 free bells ? This isn’t the first time I’ve been cheated on my bells that I have never claimed disappearing from me being able to claim .

[finite mural]

because there's a limit to how many you can have, your free bells get converted to speed ups if you're over that limit

[cosmic idol]

Pvp in this game is broken. Until scopely adjusts the level ranges of what can be attacked, pvp is nothing but higher ops players preying on players that have no chance against them. I personally refuse to grief lower level players. When there are ops 60+ whales with everything money can buy camping mission and event zones day in & day out, when there are fewer than 5 other folks on the server that could challenge them, the fun factor goes down, you lose players, and servers become ghost towns. One whale devoted to the griefing playstyle is all it takes to depopulate a server. Scopely, do u have any plans to address this? I'm not a huge spenders, but Im going ftp until I see that you are. No sense in wasting any more money on this game while players can be farmed the way you allow them to be now. This perspective is also going to be shared on the Google Play store app feedback.

[torpid kelp]

what the hell scop. send my manowen off is 7 min on the way after 4 min the timer is at 0 and after restart it is in my base. ist this a new future

[sacred garden]

Still love how refinery building lvls lack description compared to all the other buildings, guess scopley doesn’t want peopto see how badly they being screwed over on refining. lol

[finite mural]

It doesn't have a description because it doesn't do anything, refining is tied to your ops level, not the level of your refinery.

[warped willow]

They certainly botched the server mergers. Good job keeping it a secret to the players that they wasted thier time competing in the SLB, since it was merged before it payed out.
Not only that but none of the events reflect the fact that twice as many people are now filling the leaderboards. If there isn't going to be rewards for doing the events, what's the point of doing them?

[orchid gorge]

iOS app crashing again every 40 mins do we really need to complain to apple App Store to get this resolved please sort it out Scopley

[smoky shard]

Can you disable the mission text when doing waves?
(Specifically the missions that trigger when a certain number of hostiles are killed.)

[nova dune]

Can we ... not have everything in the faction stores placed behind a "View" button? It makes figuring out how much of X thing I need to obtain (not to mention comparing two or more items) much more difficult than necessary. I'm not even sure why it was changed - it appeared to work perfectly fine before the update.

[finite mural]

It'll be fixed in the next arc update

[last nest]

welcome to the easy robbery see ya next time

[maiden helm]

Scopley you have so unbalanced this game that there is no PVP except for the whales.. I’m getting attacked by players 15 levels above me. Do you consider this a balanced game. You have made the credit card warriors so strong with their billion strength ships they are untouchable. When will this insanity end when the whales strength has reached the US debt ceiling? This is sad state this game has come to

[left lynx]

One of my members gave the idea to be able to give an avatar as a gift to other person on the alliance. It would need a special exchange token to get in the way we get everything on this game.

[torpid cargo]

You gotta think like Scopley. How can they monetize that. Prime Avatar Gift…..probably be a multi level prime too.

[civic haven]

Why is there a “are you sure?” For 150 latinum, but not for 5k uncommon materials? 🤔

[gritty sigil]

What just happened on Server 63? I was just grinding.... got a "Login session no longer valid", now I get a "All of our systems are currently busy due to an unusual amount of commanders trying to log in."

[hardy scroll]

Maintenance

[stuck sapphire]

Is it not possible to include maintenance messages in in-game alliance chat for people who don't follow the toxic slurry that is global chat??

[nova sierra]

#⭐-official-announcements message 1hrs see territory reset line

[thin pier]

Hi I have a suggestion, since us players love bugs, can we implement a bug where the game where you hit recall and the ship doesn’t recall? Or when someone warps out their ship remains?

[hardy scroll]

Question is, does this maintenance give a peace shield?

[hollow plover]

and does such a shield will work within a reset territory?

[compact pond]

I wish you could stack your peace shields instead of waiting to set one up after the previous one ended. That open window between the two shields sets you up for your base to be attacked.

[vale wasp]

You can overwrite a low duration one with a longer duration shield. There is no protection gap that way since you don't need to wait for it to fade.

[vale falcon]

Are we getting a territory services rotation?

[tulip fossil]

would be nice if you could stack a certain amount of shields

[tribal bane]

Prime coming soon for $99.99

[tulip fossil]

i can actually believe that unfortunately

[jaunty prism]

Who else loves not being able to find any G3 nodes after territory reset? 🙋‍♂️

[acoustic cloud]

When you reset territory, reset the services. We know there's surprises and unannounced changes to services, but it makes it impossible to plan when we can't see any of it.

[limber mesa]

knowing scopely... that would be an artifact or multi-level prime, 99.99 per level, each level letting you stack 1 extra shield.

[last narwhal]

We normally have a 8 or 12 hr auto shield for maintenance nights, I wake up 6 hrs after getting kicked and no shields today? Did players not get shields? Or was it a short 4 hr shield? If this is going to be the new "normal" it should have been addressed on a wide scale by Scopely, this type of frivolity and lack of responsibility by Scopely is UNACCEPTABLE.

[finite mural]

it was 5 hours

[lilac jungle]

So no crucible of war before incursions this time?

[plain marsh]

guess not

[short iron]

ah pvp again then going afk end setting shield for 2 days well done scoply

[granite pike]

Server-wide pvp events suck. Get a new way to try and force us to buy your upgrades.

[sturdy dune]

Lol, Scopely with more "we absolutely do not care about what you think" events. Y'all embarrassing yourselves again.

[vapid rivet]

Should have done a compensation chest with a 7 day shield in it......

[balmy iris]

You finally found a compensation that is worth absolutely nothing for most people. You are hopeless.

[vocal pollen]

I hope this multi-day server-wide PvP arc runner will never get a chance to design another month of events

[nova sierra]

YAY PVP EVENTS ARE BACK!!!!!

[mossy sage]

Back to level 67s sitting on level 40s. Any chance we can get a game designer to get their heads out of their backside?

[bold marlin]

Yeah, I was thrilled to my very marrow to find I’d received 10 warchest points, for a mechanic that I’ve ZERO interest in, that’s been designed only for whales for a game whose PvP design could’ve been achieved by a penguin with a head injury.

Bravo, top notch compensation there $copely, I’m expecting you to employ Martin Shkreli your new head of PR very soon.

[nova sierra]

Not a whale, and still thoroughly enjoying the events

[tropic crown]

Ghost player ships are back.

[cerulean sandal]

Well some people do enjoy being blown up over and over again with absolutely no chance of success. If you're not a whale that's what's happening.

[nova sierra]

Sounds like you’re having a bad time, because my k/d has only increased during these events

[cerulean sandal]

The only PVP I see are whales killing everything that enters Gorn space and a bunch of players advertising their week-long shielded station coordinates parking vessels outside their station to get blown up.

[hard aurora]

I was going to post another rant about how lopsided PVP is in this game, but what's the point? I'm not a whale so Scopely doesn't give a gnat's fart about what I think.

[mossy pecan]

Lately the punching down has increased, not so much PvP based but PvE events and/or systems need for loops. For example not only will you find high lvl players as well as lower level ones with high powered ships working those systems using "brute-force" since at their ship's strength they don't have to care about the battle triangle anymore and basically kill anything in site leaving players with less powerful ship struggling just t respawn the ship classes that are more closely a match for them. a Good example is the 46 Silent system where ppl swoop in with their Corvus' and the likes killing everything in site and so many times leaving the system void of any 46 and hence people with less powerful ship with virtually no chance of respawning the 46s.
Another example is the Gorn systems where players with ships in the 100mil range indiscriminately clear out lvl49 Gorn systems again leaving ppl 'punching their weight " or slightly above to struggle.
I believe it is time for a change on how far one can "punch down" from simply being based on difference in OPS lvls but in difference of ship power.
I mean this game is turning more and more into a second job, even without spending, but by simply the time it takes to do most days events and dailies.

[unkempt roost]

The solution they imposed in the silent system also prevents punching up. How about advocating that content be tuned properly instead of asking them to make punching up or down impossible based on what the player can do. Those players poaching the lower level hostiles are doing so because the appropriate level hostiles for them are overtuned too.

[harsh thunder]

More stupid ass PvP.

[acoustic cloud]

unpopular opinion:
The War Room should offer ops-level relevant rewards at EVERY building level
As an ops53, mine offers 8,000 dilithium.

This seems every bit like the absolutely trash 'swarm refinery' and other silly additions to the game that don't meaningfully scale with ops.

If it's not relevant at low levels, there's no incentive to invest at all

[tropic helm]

Sure rewards could be better b7t dang the pvp brackets are to wide at higher lvls but they can't fix them because the poor whales would complain.

[acoustic cloud]

pvp brackets are irrelevant since isolytic - realtas out there killing kelvins

[tropic helm]

They do still matter lvl 60s shouldn't be able to hit as low as they can but the whales love it

[nova sierra]

AAAAAAH PVP BAD!!!!!

[cyan arch]

Thank you Scopely for bringing some action, even it is now and then galaxy wide pvp events awesome!

[ornate rose]

Complete waste of time. Nothing in that system he can even use. Punching down on silents doesn't work. Can only refine the stuff in the 51-53 system. Outside of that 1st event when they were released it serves no point unless he's trying to help clear say 46's for a teammate so 49's will spawn

[royal tundra]

Dear scopely how is it a pvp event if my ship is already dead before the system will load for me?!? Dumbest update yet…

‘#YOURPVPBRACKETINGSUX

[empty arch]

Scopely you are destroying this game. If that is your intention congratulations. You should take a look at what is going on no one can play the game if you are under 50. Maybe that is the plan.

[hardy gorge]

Of course that's the plan. Scopely in their heads think that people will see their ships being blown up by whales in the 60s and then they'll instantly decide to drop tens of thousands of dollars on the game to level up quickly.

[thorn vine]

On our server it is under 60. Even when I do make out and manage to kill stuff before I get killed I'm ranked when I come back to my base

[blissful meteor]

Hey Scopely, this PvP makes it nearly impossible to complete all the tasks you list. It creates kill boxes. My G4 ships have no chance of defeating the big ships. There is no strategy or tactics that will change that. I am not going to spend money to try to catch up. I can't speak for everyone, but for me, if this continues to be the game, it won't be for me anymore.

[full badge]

2. game crash now in wave, SCOPELY you owe me 200 chiffres now because of your lack of programming skills

[cobalt peak]

Not liking this server merger. Seems to have been handled very poorly. Matched us up with a totally different style of play. Wish we were not merged.

[prime socket]

The “ship swap disconnects” and “screen swap hang ups” have gotten much worse today.

[real shale]

After multiple arcs adding BS super lengthy loops, to nearly non-stop PvP events. It’s really going in the wrong direction. People are dropping and not coming back. Really time to wake up.

[strong geode]

This is a buggy mess and everyone should get a refund. It takes me more time re-clicking enemies as the ship flies by and ignores them then if I could only select one target at a time.

[wise kelp]

Hey scopes, just got hit in voyager token space again. Because it’s broken and no one can see nodes or that there’s someone on the node. In other news I got a splash screen asking me to buy battlepass that I laughed at

[echo sable]

Even if the player cant see you, if you click on a node that is in use it's gonna show that someone is there

[wise kelp]

It shows attack instead of mine. Not the point though (and I did win, lol, docked and showed repair bill was how I found out it happened). My main point is that glaring bugs prevent me, and maybe others, from spending. Scopes ain’t gonna convert folk with marketing when product is broken

[echo sable]

i hear that. Voyager token space is always weird and several systems I enter nothing appears, the scanning circle spins forever and then I get an error

[hollow blaze]

Fix faction store...

[hidden roost]

On my Personal opinion, this Game is on one of its last Leg. They have to save money and squeeze the max out of the ones who are willing to spend Maximum. The Staff needs to be payed and allmost the Servers and Services needs to be payed. Also owners want to get the Money Back they spend to buy the Game and protect their Investment. Servers getting merged because more Players leave than new ones signing on. If you believe the inoffical stats, out of 207 Servers 133 still alive. And merges are still ongoing. I personally can not see this will run any longer the way as it is. The players who are in free2play just cost money and the ones just buy the minimal packs for arcs and battlepass not making enough to keep it alive. Every player costs money, Serverressources and plus Supportressources. The actual arc-design is nothing else than the try to get rid of them and remain with the bigger spenders. This is the way I Look onto it.

[last nest]

you are mostly correct the goal is to make it last man standing

[hollow plover]

and the last man has to pay for everything 😅

[half saffron]

Rename that war game to 'Terran Empire'

Everytime finding solutions for problems scoplay bombard everything with this invading and purge stuff. Servers performance is nearly dead now just some bullys and payers around the rest turned off

[prime socket]

It has gotten ridiculous how much I’m having to reboot due to the app hanging up during screen transitions.

[obtuse jungle]

Well done scopely.
Now the big ones hit us smaller ones whereever they can and whenever.
Wonderful idea with your pvp stuff.
Was a nice year playing stfc. Most likely i am going to quit now because of that.
There is no fun getting killed all the time. 😆👍👍

[vocal pollen]

There are rarely territory battles, because it simply does not make fun at all (maybe once or twice, but that's it). So, create PvP modes that are fun to play instead of forcing players with rewards to play parts of the game that are not an enjoyable player experience …

[gusty fractal]

TC is a PvP mode like PvP events that are running today: the problem is not "create new modes" but "encourage players to play and not to agree with each other". "Realta spam" is an example how players can destroy a feature, diplomacy to divide territory zones is another one...ok, diplomacy is one way to play and thanks to diplomacy territory battles are not funny because there are not ships to target.

In my server, in the first and the second TC season there were not contested takeovers: why? Because some players are addicted to PvE and don't want to waste their time in one takeover even if they can get a G3+ raw mining node they can use rather than going in faction/deep space.

[nova sierra]

but "no on is forced to do PVP"

[obtuse jungle]

Somehow he is right.
If i just do nothing and watch me getting killed over and over, is it technically pvp then? 🤣

[nova sierra]

hahahaha but your ship still tries 🤷‍♂️

[obtuse jungle]

Seriously. Change that. Or massively lower the brackets within people can hit. Max +/- 5 your level.

And again. You promised more quality than quantity.
Setver got worse this month with this pvp update in performance.
Instead of less grind we got anotjer one with the Gorn.
And on top. A month with 3, three, drei, new officers.
Where is your quality?? @vale wasp

[nova sierra]

Their solution will be a "White flag" hailing frequency 😂

[obtuse jungle]

You have to buy for 59.99 🤣
Could be funny if we had not to fear they will really do it.

[cosmic tapir]

For starters. We can stop encouraging PVP

Just think about the people who don't choose to participate in PvP but yet are subjected to it.

[midnight dawn]

Anyone else noticing a lot of lag recently?

[pseudo shore]

Scopley should take negative points in systems where events are happening, like the gorn surgeons systems, to make game possible to play during pvp.

[amber chasm]

Or just dedicate a benign system to only host PvP in. Still host the PvP events, but leave it as truly optional.

[grizzled latch]

but there's where you run into a major flaw in the game, those systems are the only places people have incentive to send warships

They have tried the dedicated PvP event systems, and you know what happens? nobody shows up. People were begging on GC for a realta to kill.

[amber chasm]

Still gives the whales a place to flex and score points. If no one shows up then you know that the players didn’t like it in the first place. PvE’ers can still avoid the PvP and not worry about a 2Bil ship hitting a 22Mil in every daily task/arc mission system. I don’t see the “flaw” in that. If $copely only wants paying customers, then change the game and only allow them in. Otherwise, get rid of this stupid “feature” and stop the bleeding of F2P (and some paying) leaving the game directly due to this…

[open horizon]

Stellar update Scopely! Love the constant crashing, maybe you need to make another Video.

[fair roost]

If you’re going to have PvP wide system battles then put lvl barriers on ships 50s to 50s 43-49 etc. This way the whales can get their rocks off still spend money and not stop progression of others in the game. Just making whales happy is not going to sustain this universe. Without the influx of new players and acquiring astronomical time to grow while you keep expanding the level systems is going to implode the game. No new players can grow if you can’t do events from bigs hitting you . Also while looking ahead at possibly how long it will take you to get and grow to a level 100 system if the game expands and lasts that long .

[tame sphinx]

If you are going to turn our servers into ghost towns every other week, can we at least get a Clint Eastwood hailing frequency to make the tumbleweeds seem more appropriate?

[sacred garden]

Still love how refinery building lvls lack description compared to all the other buildings, guess scopley doesn’t want peopto see how badly they being screwed over on refining. lol

[finite mural]

Why would it have a description when refinery level doesn't do anything?

[ripe thicket]

Why oh why do you have the trailblazer sms which is to spend 312 minutes in a tc...5.2 hours. Doing absolutely nothing but sitting there. And then create another event, A Dish best served cold sms that you can ONLY get by doing pvp in a TC...and you have to kill (or die) at least 42 times (84).

Are you all that tone deaf at scopley? Two contradictory events for rhe same in game situation. And unless you are the biggest on the server, you are not going to be able to always spend that time fighting and winning. In fact, you have made it EVEB EASIER for whales to slaughter us with their transwarp cubes where they can port to a 60 system, kill a ship, gain 200% charge and warp back. They can be there and beaming in the system before I can repair my ship and get back to a TC no matter how close I am.

And good luck defending against them with....ANYTHING.

TC reset and warroom are the worst implementation ideas in the game.

[olive oar]

Thumbs down, scopely. thumbs down on everything you're doing right now. "quality over quantity"...what a joke

[limber mesa]

time in TC is per ship, so divide it by the amount of ships you have.

[ripe thicket]

Maybe if you have a peaceful server. I am on a very toxic server and the only way to score points is being cloaked. The whales terrorize everyone who doesn't bow down to them.

[grim obsidian]

I understand that it’s hard to distinguish between 6s and 9s when you only work with 1s and 0s , but could they at least have some 46s in this system? It’s bad enough that these Silent warriors are as overpowered as they are without having to wait 10 minutes before a ship you can beat shows up.

[ripe thicket]

What crew are you using? Before upgrades, I was using cerritos and/or titan boosts to kill them.

[stark lintel]

Yes but boosting every time you go to kill Silents isn’t a viable solution in the long term. They need to boost the spawning of the lower level hostiles in each system. Would solve the problem.

[finite mural]

or get rid of the range and make each system a specific level, or better yet just make all the loot the same so you don't have to hit above your weight class.

[limber mesa]

remove the higher level ones.
since very few ships available within the level brackets can actually reasonably grind them.

[ripe thicket]

I agree 100%. They should have at least 1 of each triangle ship per level in the systems spawn. If the last one was killed, that one is respawned

[shadow grove]

Please end the galactic PvP

[limber mesa]

my monaveen thrives against 44's, but that's not going to carry over to the next system.
and my valdore(which on paper is much stronger than my monaveen, and any ship of any other ops45 player I've seen on my server) still does worse against the 44's.

this slow mode delay really ruins the ability to have a conversation here...

[grim obsidian]

I’ve been using Titan and Cerritos boost, I’ve tried Janeway, The Dr and pic-Data, as well as Severus, Charv, Decius.. makes no difference on the who… the fact is there aren’t enough 46s in this “46” system. My newton is at 46m and I have both health and attack boost below deck, not to mention 200% battleship eco and a 100% defence eco active… either way… if there were 46s in this system.. I wouldn’t need half of these add-one. FYI.. since my first post there has been one 46 show up in this system.

[ripe thicket]

A couple to try. Pike more Phlox (try first). Pike more tucker. Snw pike, snw synergy, snw triangle officer if you have a t3/4 Torres. If not, try snw pike, triangle officer gorkon with hugh below.

[grim obsidian]

I’ll give these a try… just not sure how this will increase the number of 46s in the system. 😆
Honestly to me crewing isn’t really the main issue here, but I do appreciate the tips on the different crews to try.

[granite depot]

You should add feature that detects when your ship is being scanned and identifies ship scanning you seems like they forgot to install that on these ships and alot of people are missing the last ion particle why are they denying us the ability to complete that research

[wise kelp]

JFC! Scopely. I get popped in gorn space trying to grind so I send my ship back to hit him back and twice TWICE I get the you have no warp and on restsrt your ship is in dock. You rob all the fun out of this game

[timid prairie]

Scopely should be ashamed of this senseless PvP. The communication with the players is terrible. Until this PvP crap is removed I will not spend any more money on this game! :iUpdate: In the last 10 days, 11 players from my alliance have said goodbye. Thanks Scopely keep it up! 🤦

[silent ember]

How is this fair ? , this isn’t PvP .

[finite mural]

wrong server, wrong channel

[civic haven]

I’ve never seen a CM interact with the player base in these channels. Idk whether to praise that or warn him about burnout. Maybe try to address themes in these channels in weekly blog posts as a better use of time?

[real karma]

I'm am getting very tired of the extreme push for PvP . Not everyone enjoys that aspect of this game. Also, the adding of so many new ships way too fast, cant even get older ones upgraded now before a new one comes out. Not that there shouldn't be new ones, but they are coming out too fast. All this is just an obvious money grab. I have spent money on things, but I'm gonna stop, and might leave the game if things don't get better for everyone, not just the WHALES!!! I enjoy new missions

[real karma]

I totally agree. There should be stricter limitations

[celest kelp]

Hello scopely, very nice that you have designed a new war game and pvp game from a galaxy exploration game. This has already cost my alliance its first three members. And continue to follow. You did a great job.

[past turret]

With this TC pvp season pass, dynamics will change. Scopely seems challenged by peaceful players. Since this is all about warfaring behaviour, ie, war room, diplomacy status forced to set all others to enemy in order to get 30 pts per kill, etc. I'm afraid only territory alliances that are big enough to fight each other are supposed to remain in the game. All other players are kicked off the game by this concept and I'm sure by intention since important resources are only accessible by taking part in this d*move season pass. So, still, please do not spend any money anymore! The only way they will realise what went wrong!

[forest zealot]

Could we please get the colored triangles on armada targets back? It's highly irritating having to scan each and every target to see what rarity it has.

[iron oak]

They censor my very sober opinion in event feedback

My post has now been deleted, but I have a screenshot

Which I cannot post here

[somber orchid]

You sure it didnt just fail to post and not deleted

[junior sequoia]

@past turret whales are scoply revenue, your $20 a month is nothing to them. They want to please the players who spend $1000 a week and 3-5k at ark launch.

[iron oak]

Yes, if you read the small print (in German that is) it says it could not be posted because the content was not agreed with by the server administrators

[past turret]

@junior sequoia
Exactly, and so do a lot of peaceful players I know of. I'm asking them to stpo spending that money

[somber orchid]

Each arc I think it can’t get worse and yet it does

[cosmic knoll]

whats your comment in reference to? if its the above pvp screenshots, then this is official, this channel is general feedback, i see no pvp feedback channel.

therefore i hope you got paid for that comment cause its right server right channel as far as i can see

[cerulean sandal]

The communal value of small spending players should not be underestimated. Their numbers far exceed those of whales. When small spenders reduce their spending and consciously avoid engaging with whales, it can have a significant impact on their margins. While one person alone may not move a mountain, the collective effort of hundreds, if not thousands, of players, each contributing one pebble at a time, can lead to remarkable outcomes.

[bright grail]

I’m gonna surmise it was excessive use of capitals. They don’t like yelling.

[winged burrow]

This pvp event just encourages the big spending bullies. Why are players in other brackets getting points for hitting smaller players. This is screwed

[wooden spire]

I’ve got quality over quantity, no lag, reduced grind, and what had become my 2nd job has been fully resolved: 2 weeks since quitting this game.

[cobalt forge]

general feedback: listening to top spenders doesn't take into account all the other spenders. Breaking the game more for just them is not economically sound, and the big spenders will be the only ones left in the game. Server mergers will all be in one server if this isn't addressed, and game cancelled shortly after that. Fix PvP, don't make it worse. I like PvP. What we have now is not PvP.

[sleek ibex]

Unfortunately for scopely, the top spenders are not always into pvp. My alliance has lost its two biggest players and the third is leaving soon, these are all very high 50s ops and 61+ ops lvl players, would be considered former whales by many. They are done. You are losing whales over this, it is truly unfortunate for all of us really. What a shame that you couldn’t simply designate pvp systems for events or just level out pvp so that 2 bil power ships can’t take out ships that are merely in the low millions. I am still playing personally, but really only so I’m not letting my game friends down, my spending is taking a massive dive as well. Not sure how long I’ll remain, I’ve been playing two years now and had a lot of time and money into this game too.

[astral river]

Feedback for Scopely. You want pvp to be a part of this game, fine. Some gamers like that. Personally I don’t and haven’t killed any player in years. Set pvp to selected systems only otherwise you stop players from even completing their daily’s or battle pass events. That is unfair. Fix this or I will be added to the ever growing list of retired players

[cyan arch]

Ships in a game are just pixels and not anybody's pride or their first born. If your ship is destroyed, you can repair it and send it back wherever or whatever you were doing. Mining, mining, and endless mining, along with nonsensical grinding without risk is killing this game.

Galaxy-wide events brought some action, now people are watching around, using their cloak, bringing extra protectors next to their armadas, run and so on.

There are lots of games out there where you can mine and grow things without someone else burning your farm. This is a PvP always-on game, and either everyone should accept and deal with it, or the solution is simple.

While I do not support most things Scopely does, I am on board with this galaxy wide killing event. Action!

And there is another fact that Scopely is a company, it's not a charity. Purpose of a company is making money (obviously). Nothing is free in any where except in your wishes. What you want is free stuff which not gonna happen. Servers (event their bad infrastructure) burns money. Investor means, they put money for more money.

Everyone keep saying N amount of people left, show me how many? My friends left (who are they?). Asking for a friend.
Whoever holds the key to database that can see and predict loses even before you speak. they call it big data & risk management.

2-3 months this is the concept and NOT gonna change just because you asked then next thing. please stop whining and try have some fun by killing or dying.

One more thing, people with big ships doesn't need a reason to kill. If they want they could, an event can't be an excuse.

[cold garnet]

I’ve had it with pvp crap. Give me shields so I can opt out. Or After 5 years, I’m quitting the game. Enough is enough. You can kiss my future money goodbye.

[cobalt forge]

@cyan arch i agree with a lot of this, except: "One more thing, people with big ships doesn't need a reason to kill. If they want they could, an event can't be an excuse." This event isn't just an excuse, it is encouraging them to hit everyone. I like a bit of risk, never care if a miner gets hit, or usually ever. But this event is promoting griefing by big players.

[cyan arch]

Let's talk about this and ask sensible things from the creator of the game. Now you said miners... on top of my head a scoring mechanic popped up...

Warship kill = N point
Miner kill = -N point.
Here we go we saved the miners right?

PVP attack range:

lets say you are ops50 if you hit between ops45 and ops50+ you get 100 pts
below ops45 1 pst.

Here we go no one gonna hit 5 level below for 1 point.

We don't know how to ask things, what is happening here is "I DON'T WANT THIS, GIVE MY MARBLES BACK"

[rich cypress]

I agree that Scopely is not going to change the focus of the arc just because players ask them. The only thing players can do is bubble for the month - see if anything improves or quit. If this is the future of the game - I certainly won’t miss being hit by whales and being unable to play. Really bad arc Scopely. Just really bad.

[cobalt forge]

couldn't care less about miners being hit, but i take your point. And this actually could solve a lot of it. Maybe even give them negative points for hitting 10 below your own level

[cold garnet]

I’m ready to quit the game. If it stays like this. I can’t mine. So I can’t process ore. I can’t upgrade my base. I can’t upgrade my ships. I’m extremely frustrated. I want pvp shields.

[cyan arch]

I would like to think that we are mostly adults here, having a tantrum not gonna solve any problems. Let's come up with solid suggestions. (not targetting you on tantrum thing)

Re miners, apart from stealing OPC, miners shouldn't score in any kind of event. Even they shouldn't count for power destroyed LB (- score).
Unless there is a war between x and y, killing miners is just sad.

[cold garnet]

Simple give the players that want to opt out of pvp. Either systems where pvp doesn’t count. Of a way for players to shield their ships from pvp. Miners, unless opc or zero node, reduce pvp scores. The reduction is based on ship ratio. Hit miner with 1,000,000 hull from a ship with a 301,000,000 hull. 300,000,000 pvp penalty.

[pastel path]

Lol and no one would load a freeman crew on that miner and use it to blow stuff up? Or sit nodes in territory. Etc.

[tawny walrus]

Is it intended for an Ops 54 to need to participate in 20+ Xindi armadas to get a single pull on the Xindi Uncommon chest? Was that seriously intended that way?

[junior sierra]

Look, I don’t mind pvp, but the only thing I can find are just grinders. People just trying to progress. I’m not a bully but I had to wack somebody. I searched all lvl 42 to 53 faction spaces last night and found 7, you heard that right, only 7 grinders out. Nobody is coming out to play.. this is what the game will look like in 18 months.

[vale wasp]

Right now, a whale needs x kills to earn enough pts to finish their events. Introducing reduced scoring for punching down means that they'll need x + y kills. And would make events impossible for the biggest players if negative/level was a thing. Seems like most would want them to finish faster, not slower.

[pastel path]

Extra credit for 35 and under woot!

[proper field]

Nice lag.

[somber jackal]

Well someone asked for real data and risk management……I don’t know about other teams but I’m happy to share some real data and stats on my team - we founded it over 4 years ago- we currently have 82 actives-
I have a spreadsheet on everyone was has every been on this team. There are currently just over 300 former team mates- about 35 are still active on other squads.
This is an absolute fact:
Everytime scopely runs incursions- we lose between 3-5 players …..some say goodbye, most just quit.
My team is not that unique…..our server has systems that are literally graveyards of former players stations-
So what the conclusion? Why do we lose so many players?Other than greedy overlords and problems that never get fixed?
I think it’s the pvp setup for the whales to bully much lower level players….just one long time players opinion …..
More pvp for all is not the answer 😎

[hollow blaze]

Problems? Where? 😂

About the "never get fixed" thing. I made a promise to myself last year November, that I won't spend anymore until MY bug list is not fixed. Just my list, not every bugs.

So far I'm a free player for half a year and my list is just getting bigger.

[tropic helm]

If they stopped once the event was done for them sure but they have the big stick and like to hit small creatures with it

[quaint siren]

"I bet the Care Bear went to go tell mommy we won't let him play FarmVille!" <-- General attitude of griefers on my server.

[vale wasp]

Some will stop, some will stay the same, and some will get a taste of blood. I believe the likelihood is most to least, in that order. When people post about the ever increasing grind in the game, I believe them, and that necessarily takes away from free time to roam the galaxy looking for trouble. Just ask yourself how often you go around smashing G2 players when you're done with your daily upkeep, and I'd think you'd come to the same conclusion.

[royal tundra]

‘#tightenthepvpbrackets

If the whales want PvP, make them fight with each other!

‘#whalefights

[royal tundra]

https://tenor.com/view/whale-wars-whale-gif-23907568

[unkempt roost]

Then they could make it so the event is finished by a very few high ops ships instead of a large number of lower ones. By all means whales should be able to finish their sms. It doesn't require a lot of thought to make that possible while not incentivizing griefing. Open world pvp simply doesn't work for a million reasons when there are no restrictions and there is absolutely nothing stopping whales from doing the sensible thing and trading kills with their peers except that many just want an excuse to hit anyone and everyone.

[pastel path]

Lol each alliance could submit a couple champions that get entered into a double elimination tournament haha!

[royal tundra]

Or have an OPS based “purge” style server that players travel to like incursions to get their PvP fix…

[tepid bramble]

Ahhh yes, scopy pvp, where the whales are running around with Hostile speed crews on their 2 billion ships wiping folks out. Because that is fun for everyone 🙄

[hardy gorge]

Fun game is fun, thanks Scopely, you're the best 👍👍👍 (this is sarcasm btw...)

[safe hinge]

Just give players that don't want to pvp and option to disable pvp. Make it a permanent one time choice, if you select to opt out you can never initiate pvp and never be attacked. *This would not include bases.

[kind minnow]

but u cant defend allies bases if u cant pvp. also u cant takeover territory.

[somber orchid]

Guess they’d expect that one guy in the alliance that didn’t opt out to take the territory

[limber mesa]

I've seen territory take-overs happen without pvp.
it was surreal.
2 alliances "fighting" for a territory... by just sitting there and watching the score go up while the clock was counting down.

nobody attacked anyone, nodes were somewhat evenly divided between alliances.

[torpid cargo]

I agree it was a bit of a "cold water" bath when this first galaxy wide PvP event was launched. But it has settled now and I for one am enjoying the action. I like the fact that I can't just send ships out without thinking of protecting them and where I'm sending them. I like that I have to "look" over my shoulder when doing armadas, or Gorn or Xindi. I think its needed and its fresh. I do not want to just mine, and redeem, mine and redeem mine and redeem...grind grind grind....mine and redeem. I do not want to take away from the folks who don't want to PvP, even if I don't fully understand why they are playing then. So I dont have the magic answer. But if your a non PvPer, then you are use to clicking....mine...attack...redeem........So during these PvP events just add in one more click......repair and go on about your game day.

[prime socket]

Fix broken cloaks

[river notch]

when are they gonna fix the event times ???????

[hollow plover]

my guess: when day light saving times are ending

[slender monolith]

I’m still trying to figure out exactly what they managed to do to get them out of sync in the first place.

[lime socket]

They always go out of sync during the dst switchovers, but usually it resyncs after a few days.

[slender monolith]

I just seem to remember they used to all be an hour early until the US was no longer wrong, and everything went back to the normal time.

[somber orchid]

Did I see something that they might not fix it

[lime socket]

All the events would line up, and be an hour off from the dailies, during the winter. In the summer they would match with dailies as well.

[warm crystal]

Wish scopley just didn't dikc with the time change and just stayed on UTC

[torpid kelp]

@vale wasp what time does the incursion start tomorrow?

[native adder]

@vale wasp Same question, please… in UTC.

[acoustic sequoia]

Here’s some feedback. Start banning the problem children no matter how much they spend on this game if it’s costing you your player base

[raven locust]

Exactly how many times are you going to push reminders to watch the same four videos? I tried actually watching them to get you all to leave me the [censored] alone, but they keep coming back and it's the same old content...

[neon breach]

Too many kill hostile events… burning out as most of my server players are quitting hopefully finding something a little bit more mentally stimulating.

[vale wasp]

@native adder You should expect incursions to start 1h before event reset tomorrow.

[native adder]

Which reset? There’s two since daylight savings began

[vale wasp]

The first one.

[wide stirrup]

yea incursions are garbage wont take part

[native adder]

Thanks @vale wasp After 5 years, it’s high time they found a way to sync them year round

[hidden stream]

I'm surprised that multitouch support for windows isn't a thing, I'd love to use my 13 inch ultra book in tablet mode to play this instead of my phone.

[echo wyvern]

Guys anyone else having problems loggin into the scopely account I cxan not access mine

[ripe thicket]

Can we get a level 60 miner system for the factions please. Something to boost miner broken parts!

[cyan arch]

Or survey broken parts mining nodes like other class ship part nodes

[sinful walrus]

If only... 😂 The rest of the world uses UT as the time reference. If only that were not too complicated for the americans 😂

[ripe thicket]

Where are there mining nodes foe broken parts?

[wise kelp]

Hey scopes, whatever server bill you’re saving on today, please uncap it for incursions. I’m rebooting a TON today for recrewing, viewing events, going to station view, coming back from chat…we can’t be doing incursions with this level of performance. Please make sure we’re optimized for tomorrow. Danke

[brisk ibex]

Seriously, rubber banding and lag is bad tonight

[vale wasp]

G6 content.

[lime socket]

Hitting surveys for rep grinding seems to be enough to keep the refinery going. Its warship parts I have to go specifically grind out.

[vital sequoia]

So lets talk about the Scopely response here.
Did they change the second round of United Earth Event? No. Didn't set systems, better level brackets or reducing the time of the event.
Did they communicate with the players upset by the current arc? Nope, in fact @tidal notch went on vacation. Everyone gets to take their vacation, but nobody stepped up to fill the void and actively engage with the players.

At launch, the Arc Runner put out a video about the war room. Did he post a follow up addressing the concerns of PvE players? Nope.
Bek posted a video about this months arc at launch too. Did we hear from her? crickets

There was to be a meeting during week 1 to discuss & address the negative feedback. Have we heard anything about what they're going to do to improve/change things? Hahahaha-no! Let's be serious here, were they gonna give us the minutes from the meeting? No, but not even a vague statement like "The Content Team is working and planning to improve events in this arc to make it more fun for everyone!" We get Radio silence.

Lots of discord posts from players have said something like "I'm shielding up until the Galaxy-wide PvP is over." So what's a terrible way to make alliance leaders struggle to run their teams? Ooooo, I know: reset all territories that way PvE focused alliances will be at half power or worse against PvP teams!
Infinite Incursions remains a controversial game mechanic, even Rev Deuce's most recent poll only had it at 40% liked. So what should we do? Run that during the Galaxy-Wide PvP event! That way PvE alliances can't keep their bases in their territories to give them a leg up on having their territories taken by PvP alliances! To be fair, it means there 8 game days this arc where the game is unplayable instead of 9, but still not a great decision

So, if messages posted here are true & you're losing players, you deserve it Scopely. There's a lot of things you could have done to improve this, you didn't do any of them.

[lucid socket]

You just need to get yourself the new and improved LAG 2.0. Comes in 7 different flavors and 3 new colors. Hurry, supplies are limited!!!

[sinful walrus]

Is it true that Obsidian Hamster isn't really on vacation, but that he set a communication standard that was too far above $copely standards and got the flick for it?

[snow pebble]

@tidal notch This is earlier that both reset times then? It used to be that time before Summer Time kicked in, which should have pushed it to an hour later? #⭐-official-announcements message

Currently, we have a reset <t:1714147200:R> (<t:1714147200:t>) and the main reset which is at <t:1714150800:R> (<t:1714150800:t>)

[vale wasp]

The "main reset" should be the one that brings arc events, and that's the first one.

[snow pebble]

I guess that's a difference of opinion especially as Scopely don't actually define it. I don't count Arc events as the main stuff, since they come and go.

[cyan arch]

yes there are, mostly in hazard systems but there are mining nodes for broken ship parts.
That was the 1st one I saw, there are others in lower warp systems

[snow pebble]

Also, @tidal notch love that there's been an in game announcement just now, but with just 5 hours to go, it's very late in the day for some people. There should be more lead time on that to avoid confusion.

[limber mesa]

there also was an announcement 14 hours ago.

[crude sandal]

🤷‍♂️ I popped a 3 day shield last night because I wasn't sure if I'd get on to play between then and incursions starting... I kinda get the idea of being able to jump across immediately, but if it's just because you don't want to forget to shield... it's not hard to move early

[dawn nexus]

There was News that was posted yesterday and in game announcement that went out from Admin also yesterday and now today another reminder via Admin message

and then on the 19th of April the announcement came saying their would be an Incursion event today

Unless you want 6 hourly announcements for an entire week leading upto it, they comms have been pretty good and much improved

[finite mural]

https://tenor.com/view/jack-o-neill-stargate-how-could-i-know-gif-5640183

[snow pebble]

So, the date was announced but not the time. And no, I'm not expecting anything silly like hourly notices etc.

I'm suggesting for clarity that the time should be included in all of those comms. Also, if there was an admin announcement yesterday, despite the fact I'm very active in game, I didn't see that and if I didn't there's a high chance that the majority of players who never even use discord as more casual/part time players would not have seen it.

There was no popup announcement like that has been for the arc or other events/store things. Incursions should be included in that imho as it's a pretty big event that upsets some people (not myself).

[tidal notch]

Yup! Next month we'll be pushing more comms about incursions further in advance.

[gleaming seal]

Is there a problem with Hirogen kills counting in events. I have killed several and seem to be stuck at 3800 more point needed for demarcation event.

It counted last hirogen kill

[rich cypress]

Scopely announced incursion on discord. They had an in game GC announcement (which is something that never happens). If your server/alliance has not been discussing incursions, then they just do not care about the event. There are many things to complain about- the communication for incursions (this month) is not one of them.

[coarse sundial]

confuesed who we paired with no incsions per event?

[idle geyser]

hello, I have a question how do I get the last damaged datapad, given that I completed all the missions on the map.

[slender monolith]

For the gold mission chain? Support ticket, it’s bugged

[sterile eagle]

Incursion attacks aren't working.

[idle geyser]

Yes in the gold mission chain

I completed all the tasks in the sol of Romulus Kronos, but I did not collect the necessary amount, I need 4 and I have only 3.

[slender monolith]

Create a support ticket, explain it and they should help you.

[idle geyser]

and where to do it .

[unborn ether]

DST is complicated. only certain events can be programmed to work with it.

[cunning tulip]

500 subspace relay UPGRADES in the chest is good, but some of us only arrived at L25 in the time since the last incursion event, and we need subspace relay KEYS to build the building in the first place. Scopely please provide some to L25 players, we’re stuck! 😭 😡

[muted geyser]

incursion, any other server not getting a red hex on the other server?

[broken flower]

Doubt it, just smoke & mirrors all the time

[cunning tulip]

Please have some Subspace Relay keys sent to L25 players who can’t build the Relay building without them. Upgrades only useful to those who have the building, those who arrived at L25 since last incursions are stuck…. 👍

Yup, Scopely has put together a couple of days if truly epic horrible game play and paired it with awful servers. 🤬

[sharp scaffold]

I will be filling a lawsuit against scroply

[sacred garden]

Since when do we have infinite incursions with the prep for it? Ain’t it supposed to be prep for it then infinite incursions?

[harsh thunder]

Jelly Brawl and Threat Reduction during incursions is a terrible idea. You all are filled with terrible ideas. It's pathetic.

I hate you people.

[swift steppe]

WHY is this wrong info still here long after You decided to change how it works!!

[wintry crag]

What is the point of cloaking now everyone can still see you and follow you around??

[crude sandal]

Which part is wrong? It was never changed

[swift steppe]

"is tier 1 OR" ???? That used to be the way it worked, but no more

[wintry crag]

You cloak but then you look like an 8472 hostile flying around system like a little green arrow if you’ve noticed them in Voyager space 😂

[slender monolith]

Do you have a territory already and is that one directly connected to it?

[swift steppe]

That IS the way it works, that's NOT what the above says

[slender monolith]

It says it must be tier 1 (1*) zone or connected to one you already own. The big red X means one of those 2 isnt true, not the best way to display it perhaps, but still what it does say and mean

[swift steppe]

That is NOT the way it works, The first 4 words should be omitted since it no longer matters if it is a tier 1 or not

[slender monolith]

It does. First territory you take must be a tier 1, as far as i know that hasn’t changed, it’s a multipurpose message covering 2 independent states.

[swift steppe]

yes multipurpose, yes independent, To anyone who understands english it says you can start a tier one even if not connected which is exactly the way it once worked

[slender monolith]

To me it says !(T1 || Connected), but that’s just me

[swift steppe]

Oh! OK, I didn't realize you weren't allowed to start tier 2 or 3 territory 🤣 😂 🤣

[slender monolith]

You can, if you have a neighbouring T1. The T1 requirement and the Connected aren’t related.

[silk charm]

your foot in the door has to be T1. you don't have to hold it after, but you can't get into a 2* or 3* that you're not connected to.

[swift steppe]

So basicly you're saying OR has absolutely NO meaning

[slender monolith]

No. It has meaning, just the text implies a lot. “Territory is either not Tier 1 or not connected to a territory your alliance already holds”

[swift steppe]

Either?? You are absolutely right! That is exactly what it says! That just isn't the way it works, which is my point

[silk charm]

it has to either be T1 (And you're not in TC) or connected to territory you have, it's correct.

[swift steppe]

Except of course it says nothing about "not in TC"

[devout harbor]

server 187 laggy and unresponsive

[void timber]

Scopley, what have you done again... since some days the game crashes again in 5 min frequency. Two month ago you have made it the game was running stable on all old devices.. fun come back to game.. and you kill it again step by step slowly, with every new grinding you added in the ladast battlepasses, finally to this week.. it crashes again and again. And today its do buggy, that you can't play incursion, no points counting in events, endless fighting animations in permanent loop.. Well done

[lime socket]

FWIW, if you click the “i” it gives more complete info.

[lime socket]

It does say that, which is inaccurate (see my ss for eg) since the zone I clicked on is tier one, so “t1 or connected” would actually be true, not false. From the details you can see it should actually have been (t1 and don’t own anything) or (connected).

[sinful pecan]

92 is at a lag standstill. Basics aren’t event working

[clear edge]

136 too. Decided to try my patience waiting for credits at the Borg store… until I ran out

[tulip willow]

Could you fix cloaking, kinda pointless....like your job.

[obtuse jungle]

Why do I have to compete with G6 players in events? I am a G5 player. @vale wasp

[jagged scarab]

Merging the arc long SLB when you merge servers is a real crap move. Spending the first 1/3rd fighting for position only for that to all be changed by a server merge announced after...

[obtuse aurora]

Player : i have a feedback
Obsidian Hamster : I hear you, i send your feedback to $copely
$copely :
https://c.tenor.com/KebqUm4WNP8AAAAd/tenor.gif

[kind minnow]

so far all we hear is empty promises again. and i guess next arc launch will be a horrible creation again.

[humble lotus]

That’s $copely down to a T 😂

[fair sentinel]

Any ideas on how someone might jump 150T points in the Khitomer event in a very short period. It’s not punching up as my nx01 is 10m bigger than there’s @60m. Punching up the best I can get with 1 token is 25T and they had already burned through their tokens, hence that 150T addition is with 1 maybe 2 tokens. I can’t work it out.

[bold marlin]

I’d imagine it’s got to do with the crew. I can’t hit Gorn yet but I’m 4th in the event. I’ve got Picard E, Data E and Janeway with Troi E in lower deck to increase critical damage.

[fair sentinel]

It must be from aquatics hostiles, which I’m hitting but there’s something amiss. There the only hostiles with a bigger enough hull health to give those points.

[bold marlin]

Their artefact’s are likely to be a factor as well.

[opaque blaze]

they did that to us when we merged. more proof that those involved in these decisions don't, and most likely never have played the game

[hollow socket]

How do you know they burned through their tokens? Some people have hundreds of them

[slender monolith]

I got 10T with 2 tokens

[jaunty rampart]

Can someone tell me how to return to my own server after going to another? I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

[proper zephyr]

Has anyone updated the Borg Cube to tier 6 without the Valdore, Katina or Kelvin? I updated my 4 star ship to tier 4 and it did not unlock. Am I misunderstanding something?

[charred cosmos]

You would need to get a 46 rare to t6 if you want to skip the 42 uncommon ships, I believe it has to be faction ships only, other 4* ones don't count like defiant and such

[proper zephyr]

Ok thank you

[somber orchid]

So far this year has been awful when are things going to get better

[weary tapir]

So it seems giving Everything to the beloved Wales and upset the Rest of 98% of the Community deosnt Pay all the bills… another Sign have to come … Scopely should now Listen very fast … or all is gone … ignorance does not help, they already gone to far …

[white glacier]

Wales doesn't get enough TBF but let's not talk politics

[wind shell]

With updates to Ultras (inclusion of LD and older SNW crews) and updates to Incursion crew rewards, can all the old SNW crew (and eventually the new) be added to the Mantis crew refinery and the DS9 crew that isn't yet in the Bajoran loop get added to the Bajoran loop. Thanks!

[rapid sonnet]

@tidal notch can we at s94 get some conclusive answers regarding incursions please? We are 1.5 yo and never had one yet there are players that show as members of an invading server (pics below). We are supposed to be in NA region but nobody can transfer in or out of 94 (yes, I already know it is for ops 12 and lower). This time no XLSB and the last time we had one between 3 servers. So, can you pls tell us what does Scopely want to do with us? Even knowing that nothing will change would be helpful at this point.

[marble badger]

They don’t care

[mystic scarab]

I just removed and reinstalled the game on my ipad. It gre back to 7gb…..7gb! Can’t scopely add a life tie. To files downloaded for the game? Insane that it grows to such an 8nsane size! On devices with low amount of storage, this causes huge issues!

[slender monolith]

jeebus, mines on almost 16gb lol

[lucid socket]

Anytime you build one of the new ships or new buildings it opens up a world of new options, graphics, mechanics and zones, all of which require you to download a bunch of new things... If you dont want your game size to grow larger, stop building the new stuff. Problem solved

[round shard]

If you're going to Ops lock the Voyager warp range research that lets you hit higher level Hirogen you may as well Ops lock Voyager tiers so players can't get stuck with ridiculous refinery goals.

[tulip fossil]

doesn't matter now you can't summon 8472 and the nodes are worse than ever...but 6.8m rare samples for 2x pull is a joke

[mystic scarab]

That’s nonsense

[cloud crag]

Can’t login to game. Stops at 3/4 load. Need help.

[lucid socket]

Its not nonsense, its accurate information. Dont kill the bearer of bad news. Ive seen this effect in action. Sorry you dont like it.

[mystic scarab]

If i reinstall the game, yes it downloads stuff, but not 7gb. I play on different. Devices, and they have different game sizes. All is in the downloaded played missions etc that do not get cleanedup after finishing them. I work in it, am a developer myself, iknow how it works, or at least, should work.

And i did not kill the bearer, just stated it is nonsense, since i know how apps work.

[junior lava]

So i dont need to push my Tribune if i simply make my corvus t6?

[slender monolith]

Correct. The highest you unlock on the table unlocks all the previous

[jovial prairie]

Stability this week is nothing but crash crash crash. Not fun.

[winter sigil]

I paid for the Ferengi Whip. Even though it shows Protomatter and Trial bells here, they have recently been removed from the payouts. Was there an announcement made about this change? It seems underhanded to decrease functionality of something that was sold.

[finite mural]

you need the two uncommon FT for the full refinery

[midnight timber]

Game is almost unplayable at this point. This arc is the most unstable and buggy yet. Game locks up and lags so bad I can’t even close it out. Constantly freezing when changing screens. Change out a ship and crew disappears. Have to back out of ship manage menu and go back in to change crews.
Lags is so bad that you can change zoom and only move in one direction.
While on a wave, all of a sudden I can no longer attack reds. Had to reboot and took 4 attempts to get back in.
Two days ago during territory capture, I couldn’t send a particular ship to the beta system (not because of numbers limit) and it would get stuck in warp. Reboot and it was back at base. All other ships could be sent to beta. Had to send to alpha system first and once it was there, send to beta.
What is going on??

[ancient oak]

Ship repair with latinum
This button should be removed in its entirety. I had the misfortune of accidentally clicking it during a particularly laggy session and managed to spend 135k latinum to speed up the repair of my Voyager. This, while having tens of thousands of 30min speedups like most players.

This latinum speed up button has such a horrible exchange rate that speeding up the repair of one ship takes between hundreds of thousands of latinum to millions of latinum.

the button serves no other purpose than being a trap to infuriate players

players have to try to avoid the button on a daily basis for years and when they finally misclick; they receive a very bad feeling of being swindled by the game. And it creates extra traffic on your support pages of people begging to have their hard worked latinum back…

[silent hollow]

We do need 1 click repairs for small base defense strategies. But yes I agree, anything above 10 lat should require confirmation

[vale wasp]

There is an option to popup a confirmation for 100+ lat repairs. That should be large enough for most. A confirmation at 10 would prevent instant jelly repairs, and that'd be a disaster for some base defense setups.

[limber mesa]

better option: make the latinum spend warning a slider instead of a toggle.

low level players can set it to 10 so they don't accidentally spend their entire supply in 1 repair, higher level players can set it to 5k so they can quick-repair and small speedups quicker, whales can set it as high as 1m because they don't need to worry about accidental overspending.

[random olive]

System is updating 3 quarter of the way is it still unavailable?

[livid pasture]

@tidal notch any chance you can get the dominion solo respawn rates to be changed to be like the Borg solos? Ridiculous to warp into a system only for it to only have uncommons.

[tropic helm]

All of this good feed back and none of it will be heard by the overlords

[echo sable]

Can y'all please fix the North Star already? We should be able to see the changes going high health does and not having the mining end earlier than its timer shows

[wise knoll]

Epilepsy? Don’t try this at home. Thanks from iOS on iPhone 14 Plus… Loading… forever… @rigid vapor

The infinite loading isn’t a problem of my connection… but of this… 💩game💩… and I have another bug that anticipate the crash of the game. When I change a ship the game stuck on empty (but aren’t empty) officers slot. The only way is kill the game… after over 5 years the game suffer of multiple bugs… I don’t want to use the words that have in my mind, but I think that you can know about your developer team.

[woeful nymph]

Why is iOS playing like a slideshow rioght now? PC is working just fine.

[wise knoll]

This is a mobile game not a PC game that is only a porting.

[woeful nymph]

Yet the port seems infinitely more stable and playable then the iOS version for which it was first developed....there's something wrong there...

[slender monolith]

Might depend on your iOS device. It’s pretty stable and playable on mine, aside from a few inconveniences and this month with “spinning” when changing screens after a while

[woeful nymph]

Ipad air 3 was fine unit the recent downtime on tuesday. It's been chugging ever since

[sullen parrot]

The cost between free-to-play and bully should ve at least $10k PER MONTH.

[slender monolith]

In terms of what? PvP? Doesn’t need money, just time before you automatically fall into the “bully” category, but that depends on your Ops of course.

[brittle pelican]

Sick of seeing this, would be nice if scopely removed it from my sight or at least put it on a timer so it does one eventually🤷🏻‍♂️

[blissful bluff]

Another pointlessness that I ignore. It's easier to add than to fix, obviously.

[granite light]

You need to include a method of reopening customer support tickets that aren't resolved properly. I am neither Tycoon nor do I play Monopoly.

[wary tendon]

Since the last update, almost every time i try and exit the ship upgrade screen the game freezes. This happens 95% of the time

[icy kettle]

Yeah I thought it was just me but my Apple phone used to be really stable in game. This week it’s hmm. Just. Not …

[woeful nymph]

It is not just you. iOS is currently as stable and performant as a wet tissue.

iOS client is freezing, popping and locking more than a street-dance performer in Vegas or NYC.

[upbeat jungle]

Maybe in the new arc mission, Red Tape, there wouldn’t be a problem for us to deal with if the ships weren’t trying to mine dilithium in a gas system?

[wise knoll]

Today actians Venom cannot be harvest. Someone have this issue?

[echo sable]

?

[vale wasp]

There is a 2k daily hostile kill limit, after which you stop earning rep/lootboxes/cargo/xp. It resets at 5 utc, ie. one hour after daily reset.

[spark vine]

why in the actual f is the only sourcing for the COMMON shakedown cruise officers a freaking pack in the store when you can get all the rest via recruit tokens?

[finite mural]

a question that has been raised many many many times ad infinitum

[echo sable]

its... pretty dumb yeah

[mint heath]

Why 3x higher prices but what you get is not so mutch better ?

[vale wasp]

New segments have higher costs. It's just how it is.

[red cliff]

It's part of scopely annoying habit of punishing players for advancing, ops in this case. And they wonder why players don't try to lvl up as much as they want

[rough belfry]

It definitely feels like as more players advance into the 40s and 50s or higher, the more likely people will drop out as they get less for more cost and effort.

[bright grail]

Yup.
Problem with Samsung devices? Fix in days.

Problem with Android? Fix in days.

Problem with iOS? At least 6 months, still no fix.

Come on Scopely, stop with the discrimination.

[forest zealot]

You really need to improve your system in territory capture, it laggs as hell and 3/4 times a move order was met with 'subspace interference' until i got caught. It got so bad o couldn't even click on the system on the galaxy map anymore. Also the enforced blindness when not having ships in the system should be disabled when my alliance takes part in capturing, the delay of ship entering and loading the system view is more than enough to get intercepted without a chance to evade

[woeful nymph]

+1 to whoever fixed the Faction cost display in the patch for today.

[cyan portal]

Gave waves a break for awhile since they were so broken...heard there had been a few fixes...give em a try...nope still horribly broken.

[steep socket]

All these fixes and still 2 columns on an iPad screen wide enough for 8 when the phone still does 3.. shrink that huge character down and plenty of room and save our finger from scrolling death

[wind shell]

Y'all fixed the faction store buttons, but forgot to put the review/peak buttons back. While you're at that put the peek (eyeball) buttons in the refinery too

[barren folio]

I for one am 100% tired of alliance members and other players complaining about pvp . It is part of the game . Has scopely considered offering 2 servers for strictly pve players? Please consider that option.

[wind shell]

This wasn't a strict revision, cause now you can't see what's in a loyalty chest before getting it... That used to be possible with the peak buttons, but now it's a surprise

[somber orchid]

How am I able to see what I’m wasting credits on , this sucks

[gritty stirrup]

👍 not a single reaction of thumbs up. I fell like point even if Scopely do good and nothing went wrong People will still hate it... PLZ DELETE STFC IF U HATE THE GAME!

[slender monolith]

Only because people rush to add stupid ones

[wide marsh]

There are 21 thumbs up right there in your screenshot. 4th reaction from the end and the highest count.

[hollow plover]

The last update (#⭐-official-announcements message ) is how quality looks like, i would like to see way more of those as well as QoL-improvements

[swift steppe]

Kind of hard to hunt with no hostiles, did all the usual , no go 91

[crude sandal]

server?

[swift steppe]

after a long lag time finally showed up

[candid inlet]

Updated my pc version to the new one you just put out and now the game wont start. I click on play it turnd to "in game" and two seconds later its back to "play"

[prime socket]

You need to put the peek “eyeball” back in the faction stores and refinery. @uncut spear <@&509690795536941056>

[lethal badger]

Us too. Took all of 40 seconds for the complaints to appear on alliance chat.

[stark lintel]

Except they didn’t fix the “peek” functionality on many of the chests, so now there’s no way to see what’s in them before buying them, sooooo “quality”? 😆

[prime socket]

Unfortunately, all the “improvements” were just fixes for things that the devs broke in the last update. So while it’s good that they saw fit to finally fix some things, better procedure would be to TEST BEFORE ROLLOUT so that broken issue don’t make it live in the first place.

[hollow plover]

i try to see it as a really tiny step into the right direction - positive reinforcement 😅

[brazen patrol]

Where’s the peak button (eye)?
I have no idea why you would ever get rid of it, but it didn’t return with the other stuff you broke and “fixed”

[tight agate]

My Game Crashes everytime I go to Rogue or Bajorn Faction store ... nice fix 😢

[fleet lake]

Hostile loot boxes loot/reward should be related to the ship we distroyed, not generic to every hostile.

[vale wasp]

They are related, but there's a lot of commonly shared stuff.

[slender monolith]

Hauling old decommissioned ships is a popular job 😉

[maiden gate]

SOooo we have a Ship treasury w/ all 3 ship parts .... but no Gas????? The only ship that doesn't use gas in any way is a Battleship.... who do you have setting up these events $copley???!!! Maybe ..JUST maybe have someone who's ACTUALLY familiar w/ the game set up event chests

[finite mural]

It's a battleship pack. The secondary treasury each month has been like this.

[maiden gate]

Yet they put interceptor and explorer parts in it

[safe mango]

<@&509690795536941056> Having uncommon materials to spare, and not enough common materials is ridiculous! Shouldn't be the opposite direction...

[tulip willow]

Considering the whole PVP centered events lately, can we change dailies so that everything can be done with PVP. Mining should be able to be stolen, killing FKR should include players with those faction ships.

[tidal notch]

Passing this on!

[buoyant ether]

WORST. ARC. EVER!

[prime socket]

It’s definitely missing from the faction stores. I’m not sure it was in the refinery before, but there’s some places where it would be useful.

[fallow pendant]

Game has been really bad lately and has got even worse after todays update. If I collect a gift, the game freezes. If I go into chat, the game freezes. If I check the events….you guessed it the damn game freezes 😡😡😡😡😡

[potent shard]

And still didn't fix field training @vale wasp

[tulip willow]

I'm trying to work around error 200

[forest zealot]

Next round of Territory capture, the rubberbanding is even worse than six hours ago and now i can't even SEE anything in a system with 50+ ships in it because loading them in takes longer than the interceptors to get me (while the combat my ship is in took almost half a minute)

[rapid sonnet]

can we at s94 get some conclusive answers regarding incursions please? We are 1.5 yo and never had one yet there are players that show as members of an invading server.

So, can you pls tell us what does Scopely want to do with us? Even knowing that nothing will change would be helpful at this point.

[cedar crescent]

Hahaha get used to that feeling

[torpid kelp]

@tidal notch hy, do you know why we can't scrap the northcut, vorcha and corvus? i don't use them at all anymore, i guess i'm not the only one

[finite mural]

because of the level

[torpid kelp]

this doesn't even make sense. the expansion of the ships cost a lot of resources and it is not understandable why i can't scrap the ships because they are no longer needed. however, i could use the resources to expand my epic(5*) ships

[finite mural]

a g5 unc wouldn't give you mats for a g5 epic, it would be the next tier up. You'll be able to scrap em when they release g7

[torpid kelp]

if i have understood you correctly, i should bring my nc/vorcha/corvus to t7 and can then scrap them. then there are no g5 resources but t6 resources. what level must my scrapyard have?

[finite mural]

i meant g7

[torpid kelp]

who comes up with such ideas? absolutely unrealistic. who is supposed to reach g7 that will be a handful of players if you bring g7 ships at some point. can't you even revise that?

[finite mural]

It's scrapyard 55 to scrap a g4 unc. If they followed that, it would take scrapyard 65 to scrap a g5 unc. But when they released g6, they didn't update the scrapyard for it. Probably because they didn't want to speed up the grind. Why i'm guessing it'll be available once the level cap is raised again.

[torpid kelp]

can you pass it on so that it can be looked at and changed if necessary? would be nice if it were the case that it would be raised

[wise knoll]

This is another amazing situation on iOS every 5 min of game, nothing changed with the today update. Scopely have a fantastic developer team. Thanks to the swap to unity engine, very well done.

[torpid kelp]

delete your localisation

[tired heart]

We still can't view things on cooldown! We were told these changes were being reverted. The patch notes say they were reverted. They were not reverted. What happened here!?

[finite mural]

The patch notes said the view button was fixed, which it was, it makes no mention of the preview function, which is being investigated.

[tired heart]

"We reverted" is literally the first bullet point of the patch notes. No where in the patch notes mentions "fixing the view button". What kind of response was that?

[bitter grail]

Was it just me or were others unable to finish the Battle Pass event even after completing all events? Was 15k short

[finite mural]

We reverted the Faction bundles to their previous functionality, where their respective Cost was being displayed, and not** "View" **(no more extra clicks 🎉 ) literally what the patch note said and did, what it makes no mention of is the preview functionality that was broken, and as I said it is being investigated.

[ember halo]

Since the start of this arc my alliance has lost 8 people. We didn’t lose 1 in over a year prior. And very few others left the game completely before that. Always alliance switches if anyone left. What are y’all doing to this game Scopely??

[stable timber]

Menu Design needs some looking over

[reef breach]

Where is the Excretus of Borg avatar

[wind shell]

@tidal notch, going back to the update to the Ultra recruit token pool. Since it was updated for SNW and LD, what about updating the Mantis refinery...? Same with similar group sourcing that doesn't have all of the group (Bajoran for DS9, Nanotech for Voyager, etc)...especially since the update for Incursion means that DS9 Bashir now has no sourcing...SNW Una is now in Ultra, but not in the Mantis refinery...etc

Oh, and with the Gorn, folks need more sourcing of the few Isolytic Cascade officers. The Gorn aren't crazy if you have them, but without them people are stuck unable to hit Gorn and just left being frustrated...

[red cliff]

@tidal notch this really needs to be given more feedback on, there's been a huge amount of screen change/loading freezes that started t his month

[vale wasp]

I'd file a ticket to see their status on that. They've done some recent work on the issue.

[carmine charm]

And support for this unity version ends in a few months

[elfin meteor]

its also a low-resolution image! drives me nuts!!

[ebon slate]

2 admirals have stepped back from duties this week. The PvP event/arc/war room has caused division on my server. Some strong players wanted to hit everything and say 'pvp event'. Most others wanted to farm hostiles in peace. RoE was adapted to protect many hostile farm systems. The admirals are having to deal with both sides.

[ember halo]

Very similar on 12. Admirals & diplomatic delegates are working to update our server-wide agreements to protect against wide-open wild-wild-west pvp, but it's a slow process and it feels mostly like it could have been avoided. Events that are galaxy wide open pvp at all times is killing this game. Limiting pvp to specific systems, or other guard rails that don't leave the entire galaxy wide open for an ops 60 to come through killing everyone/thing from Ops 20-something & up is crucially needed. This isn't Star Trek any longer. I'm not even able to explain it away like the Dominion War sage on DS9. This is just chaos. Much hated chaos.

[solar solar]

You create problems by adding extra rules other than what scopley dictates. That’s where the extra diplo comes in and the headaches. Saying that though our server has added no hits on monaveens no token systems no event spaces (battlepass)no zero miners. Everything else is fair play. But then opened up territory defences in beta to free for all pew pew. It’s not perfect as there’s always that 1 alliance that does their own thing.

[rough belfry]

I wish there was something to do with these BPs. They aren't worth building and scrapping since I can't trade up the mats and they cost more mats to tier uo than you get to scrap.

[fallen flare]

@tacit obsidian please fix the silent enemy loop, everyone just waits in the systems to hit the lower level hostile, even the players at the top ops level for a given system. You could easily remedy this by increasing the loot on the higher level hostile by 7x or so. Until then, it’s a very poorly designed loop unless the player loves to wait.

[rough belfry]

Seven fold may be a bit too much but the high level hostiles definitely need to be at least triple the value of the lower level hostiles.

[fallen flare]

Well, I can only hit 3 lvl 49s but I can hit 25 or so 46s. The lvl 49s give just 1.5x the loot, when I math it out, 7x the loot would make it worthwhile to actually hit the 49s.

[stable timber]

Low res is fine for background to reduce app load. But background shouldn’t be in front.

[ebon slate]

They should do something like the officer transporter patterns where if you've already built the ship you can trade in excess bps for something useful. They can have a low exchange rate to prevent abuse, but better than nothing.

[keen lagoon]

They want you to grind out more BPs to be able to build the ship, spend mats and time to level it, then scrap it

[trail vault]

You have to complete a lot of xindi uncommon armadas to get enough loot to pull just one chest. Minimum of 5-12 depending on individual power/overall power loot spread.

Each player can launch one free xindi uncommon per week.

One uncommon loot chest (again, takes 5-12 uncommon launches to pull) gives 200 rare xindi armada directives.

It takes 5000 rare directives to launch a rare xindi armada. That is 25 pulls. Low end 125 xindi uncommon armada launches. High end 300 xindi unc armadas needed to source one rare xindi armada.

Also, the loot is trash.

Can you please bully and/or fire whomever developed the xindi armada loop?

[prime socket]

Please figure out what is causing screen freezes during screen swaps. I’m tired of rebooting so much. <@&509690795536941056>

[trail vault]

What is the max available sourcing of voyager commerce insignias per week? 1000? 600?

Should we really expect players to take 2-3 years to complete a non-final tier of this field training? An additional zero was added here and has gone unchanged since Voyager arc.

[white glacier]

A Kumari is still fun to have during the jellyfish events 😉

[ebon slate]

I'm glad it's not just me. You mean the black screen with the buffering circle? Very annoying having to force close the app.

[stark lintel]

It’s been happening to me much more frequently this month than ever before.

[prime socket]

This screen. This freeze was after I did research and tried to return to my station screen.
And that is all I see. Have to reboot at that point.

[prime socket]

Or this, after leaving the ship interface screen.
Nothing to be done but reboot.

[prime socket]

And while this issue doesn’t require a restart, it’s still annoying that you have to back out and go back in just to change crew. This issue has also increased significantly in the past week.

[vital hedge]

FIX THE LAG

[vivid breach]

O M G! The laaaaaag! What the heck?

[glacial spruce]

It's time to change the potato they're using to power ther game sever.

[tidal notch]

Lag still bad?

[vital hedge]

I think it's better, but it happened in the middle of me trying to drain a 5.7T station. 😆

I'm less worried about the lag now that they came back and shielded. 🤣

[tidal notch]

How's your lag?

[vivid breach]

Not much better? Worst was in Aftitalis for PvP. Would take 15 seconds for the spinning wheel to stop to target an opponent

Solo armadas take 15secs to get all 3 ships to join when they’re sitting right there

[wind shell]

Unless you have a lot of efficiencies...

[nova sierra]

This! @tidal notch we really could use a major bug fix release for iOS and Android and some fixes on the server side software ran for each server.

[bright grail]

I get that literally all the time. Most often from Dock D.

[wind shell]

This is a great example of an Exo that why...?

[crimson stream]

And they keep putting this garbage in the armada reward chests......armadas that you need a talios to do

[finite mural]

wonderful ain't it?

[wind shell]

Those are from the solos. The rares and above you don't get to refine till you are ops40, by which point you've switched over...

[lime socket]

It was useful for about a month iirc, when we had the solos but didn’t have the talios yet

[balmy shadow]

Lags better, hamster fed.

[quick gale]

New bug, when I dock my ships they tell me they earned xp. Even though they are maxed. Mantis showed 10000000xp

[fathom juniper]

Thanks for level locking the talios then bracketing the talios for pvp events. Stand up job scopely. Stand up job. Don't know why I bother playing this game anymore. Money can definitely be spent elsewhere for more fun.

[carmine charm]

Vemet for the win 😄

[somber orchid]

Yep losing over 20 times is fun

[heady cedar]

good people who have played for years are leaving the game because there is too much junk to try to keep up with now... instead of putting out the next big ship or another new grind, it would be nice to see the existing components focused on and made better.

[grizzled fulcrum]

Would like to tap a button to see how time for journey the hit a catchy phrase like engage button or hit it but we get to choose out phrase. But we also need an emergency button to get out of there straight away. And why can’t we get a They are scanning us notice? So when someone scans us we can watch their intentions? To hard to program?

[nova sierra]

thanks for releasing an update that brought back all the slowness and lag that has been gone for the last few months....smh

[sour cape]

Yeah... Be nice to be able to view chest contents in the faction store Ya know. Why was the view option not returned when the faction store was reverted back?

[slender monolith]

It broke. In that it wasn’t meant to be gone, but is.

[ripe thicket]

For the Attack Pattern: Tango - SMS, please add another way to finish the event than relying on pvp in a single zone. Some people are not always on to finish the event and it is a pain in the exhaust sometimes.

[unkempt roost]

This is still closer to what a pvp event should be. Restricted ships in restricted systems. No score for punching down but lower players can score if a higher player sends the correct ship to their system. But it is out of place in an otherwise pve event and needs a less time consuming way to compete it. I had to leave my ship sitting out for hours to get it completed once again showing how much people like "pvp" even when getting paid to do it

[fallen flare]

@tidal notch please revamp silent enemy loot. I’m ops 48, nobody hits the 49s in the system I am required to hunt in, even the biggest ships that come in hit the 46s. For instance, I can destroy 34 of the 46s but only 3-4 of the 49s, yet the loot of the 49s is just 1.5x. The loop would be completely fixed if you just bump up the 49 loot by 7-9x, very very easy fix to implement. I HATE wasting time just waiting in the system.

[slender monolith]

It’s annoying. I do resort to killing 49s if that’s all there is, or there was people lower Ops than me doing 46s. Higher Ops with weaker ships have to lump it.

[fallen flare]

Right, there’s NO incentive to hit the 49s ever, not even close. You can kill 1/11th the amount of the 49s but the loot is only 1.5x… even if the loot was 5-6x that of the 46s, it could be worth it, maybe.

[slender monolith]

🤷 i can kill 6 at a time, which is adequate loot for a few days at 1 pull, or 3 chests once if i do 2 runs

[idle lichen]

After more then 5 years and ops 63 goodby scopay.

The greed for money is so worse like the latest patches .... grind, grind, money money more more ....... sad game could be so good without the greed

[shadow geyser]

Ipados17 having game issues since new arc. Game freezes when changing bus, officers,ships requiring a reboot several times a day.

[barren hazel]

Some bonus 4 chests, 1.7M

[ripe thicket]

The bonus refineries are so bad, I don't do them anymore or I just do a single batch.

[woeful nymph]

iOS?

[prime socket]

Yes

[lean crypt]

They're pumping out content to squeeze as many dollars from suckers because people are leaving the game. They can't even coerce new players to stay.

[woeful nymph]

I have had some massive issues with those types of frozen screens the last week and a half. Lots of timeouts and connection issues. Even issues targeting things at times. Just a spinning wheel on the attack button. It makes waves a PITA when you can't attack things. Zero issues on PC, so it is not my ISP/Connection.

[north spear]

@plush ginkgo this ones a good one

[rough belfry]

Maybe I'm a bit slow but the yellow hostiles are not aramdas, so why do they not count for E-Picard and E-Data?

[limber mesa]

mission bosses and Q trial hostiles are a bit odd, they sometimes do and sometimes don't count as hostiles.

[finite mural]

q trial hostiles always count as hostiles, mission hostiles never count

[limber mesa]

i don't remember tal ever working on Q trial hostiles.

[finite mural]

It doesn't. It's an exception. They're treated like regular hostiles for everything else.

[rough belfry]

So it's yet another example of Scopely not knowing their game and how to word abilities in English (which is supposedly the primary language of the developers)?

[finite mural]

No... mission hostiles have always been separate from regular hostiles, to the point that there are officer abilities specifically worded for mission hostiles. And any ability that mentions hostiles has never counted for mission hostiles. This isn't a case of scopely not knowing their game, this is a case of the player not knowing the difference.

[rough belfry]

But this is the first time Scopley used the therm "Non-Armada Hostiles" that should be an all encompassing term to include mission boss hostiles

[lime socket]

“Non-armada hostiles” should be a subset of “hostiles and armadas” and the latter doesn’t include mission bosses.

[slow hatch]

Chat needs a translator function. To remove language barriers from players in alliances. I am sure Scopely will turn this into a universal translator prime feature at some stage in the future

[robust knoll]

Not for the cloaking daily, it would seem

[finite mural]

first cloaking daily they should count, but not the second because they don't have a level

[mighty imp]

Dear Scopely,
Please take this lag, and shove it up your behind

[mild hemlock]

Can you give me your server number and tell me if other players on your server are experiencing similar issues.
Also, please phrase your grievance in another manner. 🙂

[warm vapor]

Anyone got problems logging in? My game is stuck at 70% loading on mobile or WiFi.

Rebooted phone, still the same problem.

[warm vapor]

Reinstall fixed it.

[somber orchid]

3 reinstalls fixed it for me last night

[static whale]

What I'd like to know: How does one get Borg Expansion Cube Directive?

[vale wasp]

Defeating borg SA spheres. They're in the chest.

[static whale]

That's a bit of pot luck, Cand1e. What happens when you hit the 2.5K Hostile limit? Especially with the COW Event running!!!

[somber orchid]

Thought it was 2k limit

[static whale]

They upped it to 2.5K couple of months back...if I remember correctly.

[vale wasp]

It is still 2k.

[static whale]

Okay I stand corrected about the hostile/day limit.

[slender monolith]

You sit there, sigh and realise you made poor choices that day.

[static whale]

🤦 🫣

[rough belfry]

Can we get it so that the single buy option is outside the pack to reduce the clicks needed? Put an eyeball there too to view the pack options. I don't need to see what available every single day I buy these chests.

[red holly]

SA = Solo Armada

[lilac yew]

lol your response is like.... oooo lag, this is new... its everywhere... Is this your first time on discord lol

[mild hemlock]

Oddly enough, I don’t have lag when I play, so no, it’s unique, and maybe localised to a server. And no, I’m not new to discord.

[lilac yew]

strange considering everyone complains about lag, daily for the past forever years... Do a simple discord search for "lag" lol

[mild hemlock]

I’m somewhat perplexed by your lack of understanding. I am aware of the multitude of ‘lag’ complaints but I’m asking for something specific. I hope that’s clear, or at least now I am reiterating it.
If you have nothing constructive to add then please keep your comments to a minimum.

[lilac yew]

That is what discord is for, now you want comments to be kept to a minimum? If $copley does not want complaints, then they can fix the issues and address player concerns. Nothing I have stated goes against any rule... Have a nice day and bless your heart...

[mighty imp]

This is an issue that’s been here for years lol. Most of the players on all servers experience the very same issue. Sometimes you get the “you have no internet connection” box. And no, if $copely wanna keep gaslighting me and tell me its my internet, you will get similar comments from me

[mild hemlock]

You both seem to be missing the point but please carry on telling me about lag on a daily basis.
I asked the person about two things, of which I am awaiting a reply.
The fact that many players complain about ‘lag’ has many contributing factors. Please note, this is not my first rodeo, irrespective of what you think of my questions.
Are you personally experiencing any lag issues currently?

[true zealot]

for instance.. is it server lag or device lag?

[slender monolith]

And the response will be “it lag! u fix!!”

[grim obsidian]

While I have experienced lag in the past, the change in how items are retrieved (push button, select item, retrieval of item) has reduced the amount of lag (or hidden it from sight) by making it take longer to retrieve your items. So if you’re looking for issues with lag, I’d say it’s still there but hidden behind the fact it generally takes longer to do anything, therefore, it looks like there isn’t lag.
This is a sad bandaid and only decreases the enjoyment of this game and the user experience. I for one have reduced my gameplay time substantially due to the amount of time it takes to do anything… none of which is directly due to lag, but moreover due to this increase in time added to the game.

[stark lintel]

Hey @tidal notch can you give us any background on the building SLB today? I’ve been saving specialty building mats waiting for one of these and the best rewards they can come up with is 2 officer pulls and 2 days worth of syndicate xp for 1st place? That’s….extremely underwhelming.

[finite mural]

just like the previous times the event ran

[errant brook]

look at how you can score aswell....speciality building mats are worthless compared to G6 Ore - and the OPS52 Player base seems to be worthless for the Event designers as only G6 really matters.

This event Design is ridiculous

[mighty imp]

You seem to be missing the clear point here. And i am that person who was asked that question. And i did answer your question. Just to make it more clear, I have had this issue forever now, and not just on my server i have seen hundreds of other players complain about the same thing on many other servers.

[torpid kelp]

@tidal notch hy do you know if there is a spendevent this weekend? ✌️

[stark lintel]

Had held out some glimmer of hope they’d pull their heads out of their rear ends, alas they have not. Just means moving forward I’ll spend the stuff when I have it, otherwise progression is stifled too much. These types of events used to actually hold some value but the removal of anything worthwhile in favour of $ packs has accelerated too fast. Oh well. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[robust knoll]

But even this event won’t drive spending. No one in their right mind would drop real $ to win something this pathetic

[stark lintel]

I certainly won’t, but there’s always someone who has to “win”.

[tidal notch]

Lemme see what I can find out.

[torpid kelp]

thanks

[red cliff]

The rewards for this building event is just utterly disappointing. Honestly, this should be been an SMS to justify the rewards. It's less than one days worth of refines for me. Is there any fleet commander or syndicate xp event coming up?

[hollow socket]

We want FC event!! Ive had an un-upgraded Sloan just sitting here for MONTHS. What a waste.

[tidal notch]

Been trying to get an FC event for a while now. No updates yet....

[tough orbit]

@tacit obsidian I‘m fed up in customizing the right crew! I want an AI for that please ! 😉

[tidal notch]

We have the epic recruit heroic, and SLB this weekend.

[torpid kelp]

big thx

[nova sierra]

Who is the officer?

[tidal notch]

They won't tell me!

[mighty imp]

Or you won’t tell us? 😝😂

[nova sierra]

Is it single server or XSLB?

[hollow socket]

Your mom

[tidal notch]

Think a single server.

[tidal notch]

A lot of the time they'll keep me in the dark intentionally cause they know I'm easy to bribe with delish quesadillas...

[hollow socket]

[lean crypt]

Would be great to see a server transfer option. I'm tired of the people I'm stuck with, and I'm sure a lot of the people who quit did so because of that too. Some communities are just trash. Mix it in with incursions, give people the option to stay.

[finite mural]

server transfers would make more people quit when whales congregate to specific servers

[somber orchid]

Plus the grass isn’t always greener on the other side

[true zealot]

When we gonna get harpoons for all these whales?!

[lean crypt]

If they congregate to one server, then you move to the next. You could find your community. Instead of being stuck with people hell bent on making you quit because you refused to bend over to a whale that now threatens the rest of the server to hunt you down or else. Everyone says they "have no choice"

[lean crypt]

So you fight back, you stand your ground. Everyone calls you a bad person. Because good people don't stand up to bullies. Then the stories get twisted, now you're the bully. You go a full year not attacking anyone, but nothing changes. You try for a territory, now you're the bully again because they were "promised" that territory by a dictator. So you war. Hundreds of people quit. You lose every incursion, it's your fault, it always is, even though no one from your alliance got raided. You recieve death threats. Your block list grows but it changes nothing. Every attempt to work it out is met with more threats, more seclusion, and more apologies from people who "have no choice"

[true zealot]

The alliance that stood up against the oppressor... becomes the monster long after the enemy becomes defeated

[lean crypt]

Propaganda can make the oppressor look like the savior to those that are happy surviving off leftovers

[lean crypt]

Maybe a few years things will change, if the game survives that long. Scopely monitors servers for fairness afterall. They promise they do.

[lavish dagger]

The bonus refineries are so out of date. God only knows when they were last updated

[weary tapir]

did the Raffinerie ever upgraded? they where only downgraded to Level 1, where it still is, maybe 4 years ago ... never knowing anymore. Ohhh of course you need massive absurd Reseources and it is needed to lvl it up but there is no change, the Raffinerie keeps on Level one. All the "Events are based on a level one Buildingare seldom and mostly Useless ...on Level 15 you will realize that only Events gives you a very small amount of Ressources ... never enough... you will now always lack ... buying Packets ... size depending on Player Level will always keep you small ...

[eager loom]

Having to reinstall on a new device...can you please add a way to log in to your Scopley id before forcing me to go through the tutorial?

[rough belfry]

Why can I continue to buy shards for an Automated defense that I have finally unlocked?

[vale gale]

I was buying those shards just to get the item out of my bajoran store....yikes.

[swift steppe]

On 91 Wridian still not populating properly

[lavish thorn]

Please consider either moving the in game notification banner away from the upper center of the screen either to the top right or make the position selectable. I find them very intrusive to combat operations. 🙂

[slender monolith]

Please consider making them part of the chat, in its own tab and limit it to the last 3 notifications, they are sufficient.

[ripe thicket]

They sell them. Most of the new primes are whale killers. Prime station delay, crit floor, iso

[civic tundra]

To kill the whale, you must become the whale

[junior sierra]

@tidal notch - whip drip news 🤣 ? I was out of town last week for work. Man this game can be HARD when you travel. So much to get done. I did it all but it was ruff. It used to feel like we had more wiggle room. You guys should look at overflow and allow people to miss a day or at least a top tier milestone. Isn't that how it used to be? Now i need to double back down on xindi, gorn and silent to get my pulls up. Makes it very easy to see how easy the game is to set down because if you miss a bit it's just hard to get back on track.....

[tidal notch]

Welcome back! And sadly no updates about getting the whip sourced. I'll keep trying tho.

[worn tundra]

I belive Scopely should fire all creation team..Every new thing added this year is worthless the time and/or effort to get it !! PAY for them? Never !! Even the once value packs have been gone !!

[red cliff]

The whip really needs sourcing. It's ridiculous the amount of gatekeeping that the whip holds away and how powerful the forbidden techs are. Especially if you push pvp, there's no way to compete against some of them. It needs sourcing asap.

[chrome drum]

Hi.

Can you please allow Allies to do armadas together? I have seen a lot of small alliances die off and one thing that I believe could have helped some of those alliances is the ability to be able to do armadas with larger Allies.

I would also like to recommend RSS sharing amongst alliance members. I run three alliances and one thing I noticed that would help is the ability for players to share resources. Up to a certain amount and based on level of course.

I think it would benefit both sides, the player and STFC. Less players would quit if they could upgrade faster, at which point, they would be more motivated to spend, versus being demoralized because their base got smashed too many times by a real bug gun.

Just a thought. 🙂

Thank you.

[red cliff]

@tidal notch can you provide feedback that some of the artifacts really need to be relooked thru? like look at this...this is an EPIC artifact. at ops 52, i'm still only 3/4 of the way to unlock this. and yet it works for GRADE 3 components....!!!! realize how pointless this thing is?

[obtuse jungle]

For what is this discord?
Questions are not answered by anyone here.
Gambling is still the biggest loved thing for scopely? Or why no answers on questions like, if the Aquatics gambling weapon will get a less percentage?
Wasted again 2 tokens. 1st token immediaze death. 2nd token 2 kills then death. Why does it have such a high percentage? Lower that please. We pay enough and now such a gambling thing?

[silver sparrow]

Just wanted to take a moment to give some feedback. This game is a pile of hot garbage a homeless man crapped on. You guys can't get anything to work right and most days the lag makes it unplayable. I hope at some point everyone gets fired and replaced by people that actually know how to make games run instead of lining your pockets. That is all.

[copper walrus]

@tidal notch there are only systems warp 190 and only handfull nodes .Please consider to increase number nodes by 50 % in your next maitenance. Beine system is almost empty and maybe there could be more mines ?

[forest maple]

Khirsarah artifact is still not working properly. The queue ship gets interrupted all the time, with error popup messages or skipping a target and moves to next.
Its really crap scopely doesnt refund.. ive tried several times, they claim the purchase was "consumed", but it is broken, not working as intended. Really is 💩
If i buy a pair of pants or a shirt or whatever from a store and its broken, its not a problem at all to resend it and get money back...

[forest maple]

I've spent thousands of dollars during the 5+ years I've been here. When buying through android store there was no problem getting refunds. Xsolla on the other hand does whatever scopely tells them to do... 😴
The bottom line is that I'm not buying anything more form here on, and that will make me feel miss out on better purchases like battle pass (although the rewards there has also been diminishing). So I'll probably just end up quitting the game due to lack of support and ever increasing bugs and issues.

[cosmic knoll]

you should approach your service (google or apple) and state that the terms of service relate to delivery of access to a service that has not been delivered. under scopelys own tos, they are at fault for not delivering that service to you, therfore refund. im sure that will get the ball rolling for you
bare in mind, that refunds may make scopely blacklist any further purchases from your account, or in extreme cases they might ban you for (in their view) illegaly acquiring a refund

[humble lotus]

Way the game is at the moment, everyone is due a refund

[silver sparrow]

Or.....

Quit giving these clowns money. It's not like they work for it anyway.

[kind star]

Oh, scopeless deleted my post in which I stated that all players should return their packs and that this has a legal basis in most countries. Interesting! They don't want their customers to know their rights...

[junior sierra]

This takes 2 long. This is just a sample of the mentality that’s crushing the game. Everything just takes 2 long for lower spenders. I’m only 40% of the way there, despite double pulls 99% of the time for 3 months.

[trail zenith]

Are you spending the rare credits on other stuff as well? These are designed to focus spending on your priorities first, not do the daily pulls that allow excess to be burned off. You don't have "excess" until you are done with all the favors you want.

[junior sierra]

Nope, I am not. You can tell kinda by my surrounding favors I hit priorities first. Edit: I do consider the nx01 a priority. So double pulls on that as well. That’s kinda my point….

[icy kettle]

I mean that was like in the first 5 things I worked on so. Maybe prioritize it a little more I guess ?

[sacred garden]

I love how not filling cargo all the way was only supposed to be when you use these exocomp and only for those ships . Yet here it’s not filling cargo to a cube or other ships when not even using a cargo exocomp of any kind let alone specific to certain ships. Scopley consistency matters a lot where your so dang in consistent that it’s hard to figure out what or how to do things

[tepid bramble]

I have prioritized crit floor, and I still haven’t gotten the rare for stage 4. Ops 55 with no NX. So slow going. The whole game has gotten so bogged down with this crap that now it’s just log on do dailies, maybe fart around with this stuff if I have time and move on. Because progress is painfully slow, and paying for the privilege is wildly overpriced and not of value that it costs. So, yeah, you failed scopy…again.

[livid pasture]

Make this galactic. Way too expensive for ultras.

[brazen prism]

Voy space is more bugged than the back of a dead donkey: Mining spots that aren't working, invisible players, full of zero nodes, blue rings...

[slender monolith]

always has been, sadly

[indigo pivot]

Scopely you have wrecked the waves. They were good before when they started, Before i could get to wave 3 with no research and just an Augur and Ent. Now with all the research, Valdore and Tailos with speed crews on both i can just finish 1 wave by myself level 44. 💩 I used to be able to select the ships when they reached the center, now i cant so death comes early. Another thing that makes me not want to play the game. 😩

[white glacier]

Why'd you switch ships if the older pair worked better?
You're blaming Scopely but you switched ships and seemingly crews and took on something that's meant to be done by 5 players cooperating on your own.

How did you expect that to go well?

[rough belfry]

<@&509690795536941056> every arc there is new art for the loading screen which is awesome and some times epic. Even some of the system's backgroud art is gorgeous. Perhaps Scopely show also release the background art and such as digital wallpaper for desktops and phones? Get some extra usage from the art.

[junior sierra]

They knew what they were doing, sell the prime, make the ship cost the same as most favors and make the last legs as painful as possible. All avoided with ship purchase and a few extra hundred dollar packs. The design and the loop ramps are devious, too expensive ( in game currency) and overtly penalizing to lower spenders. They make the economy, they set the prices.

[oak hawk]

Every time I get hit for random PVP with no real upside for the other person ... And worse is when there are PVP events ... The closer I get to dropping this ponzi scheme of a game.

[vast nest]

Technically this isn't a ponzi scheme of a game as you are not receiving any compensation based on continued growth. Call it a basic scam if you will, but don't tarnish Ponzi's name by associating it with STFC. It's just insulting to real Ponzi schemes

[solar copper]

Anyone here started a fresh account since the inception of the academy events for newbies?

[wise knoll]

I have tried and the issue still persist… Localisation no sir…

[indigo pivot]

Because i managed to do 1 wave in Bravo by myself before they changed the waves. It must be nice to have an Alliance to do waves with you, i am an alliance of 3 . And even when i was in a large alliance players did them at different times so that's when i started doing them by myself. I am blaming Scopely because they changed the wave format. 👍

[icy kettle]

I mean. Lots of choices affect your game. Most in your case appear to not be scopelys

[open horizon]

Really awesome job making the quality of the game a top priority. I especially like the improved black screen of death, random freezing and ships that can’t be crewed when swapping. Really must take some hard work and talent to constantly be improving what most would find a flaw. Can’t wait to see the next round of quality improvements, keep up the good work. Thanks Devs for being so good at your job.

[sleek carbon]

Can we hv g5 ships appear in AT store now g6 has been out awhile.

Let’s focus on stability and having a game i don’t need to reset 10 times an hour on ios

[sacred garden]

Clicking on the store tab here brings you here fix it it’s supposed to take you to consumables.

[sacred garden]

Reading the news on the new academy doesn’t even seem of any value to anyone in the 40’s it seems only valuable to lvl 1-15 ops players no one higher. Much rather you fix the game then bring content that seems like it’s only for low level players

[nova sierra]

Can I have another war chest yet…

[sacred garden]

I have to say as one that’s not to into the pvp I did like the original idea of war room every 7 days it was best way for alliance to really help all members instead of just a few like armadas do since armadas have limits on size not all members can get in at particular times for various reasons. Where war room really helps all no matter what times one is able to get on.that helps out weaker members or members on different time zones that tend to miss armadas due to time and work. They can also help contribute more to alliance too by doing their part when they’re able to be online. Personally I think it was one of your better ideas tell you decided to change it from original idea.

[exotic bison]

The changes to mats available in territory were a great idea however changing all 2* territories to 4* mats on a server where 3/4 of the players require 3* mats for dailies still has made territory less useful to the majority unless we hog the 1s that the smaller alliances need to grow.
We have for example a 1 territory with 20 G3 gas nodes which is great but both our 2* territories are 4* crystal so our only source of 3* crystal is the 10 nodes in gamma system of our 3* which are inevitably clogged with zero nodes for half the day whilst the 3 x 4* systems sit largely unused.
It would be much more useful if 2* territory had a mix of 3* & 4* nodes and / or 3* territory 3* system had double the number of nodes available.
I realise that this won't be the same issue for all servers as many are more developed than us.

[white glacier]

Our alliance sets rules that mines in territory have to be mined with the right ship and crew and if you afk on zero then you can expect to get removed by an ally

[eager wave]

Officer sourcing has been very poor for new officers since the last Enterprise arc. I do pretty well in events etc and buy the BP and yet Sato is 24/38, Chapel 19/38 and I haven't unlocked M'Benga or Sam Kirk either. Hope some proper enterprise sourcing gets added next month (as I am not buying an elite TC pass for 10 Sato shards) and there will be an end of arc SNW store, or they get added to the Mantis refinery...

[cyan arch]

nx01 doesn't need any upgrade or favours. t2 is pretty enough for everything without any favours apart from warp

[hidden night]

So regarding the Defiant, she is for all intents and purposes a "support" ship; there is some limited pve utility in the DMN solo edict boost and hostile utility against Jem hadar ships but there are better options for grinding. In pvp with the Freeman Lorca crew she can be deadly but not until the upper tiers. More often than not I see people in the 50s with a Defiant at tier 5 or 6 because they just see no reason to use her. And looking at the in game perspective, it sure seems like shes been pretty much forgotten and ignored since launch.

With as many armada events as have been run lately it sounds simple enough to add a Daily goal claim for boosting Armadas using the Defiant, maybe even limit it to Solo armadas, God knows we have a million different Armada options now, boost once for a claim of Bajoran Credits and Rep, boost 3 times for an extra claim of Bajoran Credits and Badges, or something to that effect.

Just seems to me that the ship was poorly conceived and executed from the beginning, Defiant never should have been a support ship, she should have been either a solid pvp ship or hard core Armada ship from the beginning but that would require someone to actually understand the lore of DS9. As it stands today beyond the solo armada edict loot boost there is little incentive to use her now, and those that did now have a major surplus of those items and have no need to do so any longer, so most don't. Disco has a weekly event, Cerritos has a weekly event, Titan and Mantis both have daily events, not that we need another thing to do on a daily basis but the ship is effectively a paperweight and there is little to no incentive to use her on a regular basis when Titan and Cerritos buffs are much more effective and useful.

I would love to see some new life breathed into my favorite ship, I bought her day 1, have her just about maxed out of spite but here we are over a year later and she is still a hanger queen.

Welcome to iOS

[wispy rover]

There are various backdrop images like these that can be used as wallpapers in the games cache on your computer. 🙂

[rough belfry]

I only play via mobile and so finding those images in the cache are difficult at best and likely not optimized for the usage I want.

[slender monolith]

Black and Preparing screens are a new addition this update, it’s nice to get new things!

[sterile gyro]

RE: maintenance and incursion announcements, can we get a time zone included in those so everyone is on the same page?

[sand notch]

Time might be helpful aswell

[stark lintel]

@tidal notch Morning hammy! Not urgent, but can you add this to your list please. These should disappear once they are unlocked. Big waste of space and accidental credit spends. (As a comparison, the skins disappear in S31 store when unlocked)
This isn’t the only place they don’t disappear, just an easy reference

[lusty badge]

can we do away with the video notifications? they flash back up like every 2 hours and its an annoyance

[woeful nymph]

When @tidal notch announces a treasury event tomorrow…then I look at my inventory 😭

[white glacier]

🙏🏻FLEET🙏🏻 COMMANDER 🙏🏻EVENT🙏🏻 PRETTY 🙏🏻PLEASE🙏🏻

[native adder]

These and everything else, like the stuff in the Amalgam refinery

[rough belfry]

<@&509690795536941056> Another ops 40+ specialty ship? How many does that make now? I get that Scopely needs to put out new content on a regular basis and I get that this game is called "Fllet Commander" but the shear amount of specialty ships in the ops 40 range is nuts.

[tidal notch]

Yeah, but this ships ability is pretty cool...

[somber orchid]

As long as there is good sourcing for those when they get to ops40 which there probably won’t be

[fierce heron]

Especially when it has nothing to do with the Star Trek franchise and is just a piece of Scopely creation...or at least in Star Wars there is an Eviscerator 😄

[rough belfry]

Debatable at best. At some point it doesn't matter how "cool" a ship ability is if it's only useful against 1 hostile type.

[tidal notch]

Sure. But I think a lot of alliances could find the spatial rip ability handy and could work really well outside of the loop.

[oak lava]

another ship. another stupid ship.

[tidal notch]

Its not for everyone, but I think the ability is cool.

[peak fox]

So let’s ignore the majority asking for a slow down and fix what’s already broke, and we get a new ship that looks like a joke, this all checks out.

[fierce heron]

@tidal notch Sure you want to promote this new ship, but it is not Star Trek like, it has only one ability and there are already too many specialty ships out there....

[rough belfry]

An ability with very limited use and limited rss to even use anyways. I will admit it will help whale tailing if the Whales want to power level the smaller ships.

[ancient sandal]

so what will be the sourcing for the new ship

[tidal notch]

As ships go, I'd rather see a ship like this one with an ability that will have some really interesting uses outside of the arc. Regarding whether it is ST like, are you referring to it's looks?

[heady shadow]

Probably buying it

[glass monolith]

#⭐-official-announcements message

More quantity over quality. Yall sure listen.

[peak fox]

I bet it will cost an arm and a leg…

[rough belfry]

I will admit that if this ship follows the Mantis with how officers are sourced, then that aspect is Quality. But the rest, not so much

[tough orbit]

Let's get married😍😍👽

[lucid socket]

So they need to make more content for higher ops levels? I agree...

[unkempt roost]

You mean for players that can access it without being ops restricted. Sick to death of this. Yes players can race to 40. No they can't be prepared to play at 40 with the game not speeding up access to the officers needed to function at 40. So many people run into walls that come into my alliance and the wall is lack of research and officers to play the game at the ops level they have been shoved to by the game. So now the choice is get no new content or race to a level you aren't ready for.

[dire heart]

people are still trying to build the last ship they just released. and now its more pay to play stuff.. this is really getting out of hand. more reasons to stay 39 and say LOL

[candid palm]

Quality = Speciality Ship Loops, over and over?

[bleak onyx]

I have to ask how comes we can't use lat to buy shields ?

[oak lava]

it could have been a disco refit. more quality quantity

[fierce heron]

Look is a matter of taste. There is just no Gorn Eviscerator in Star Trek. Not even an Eviscerator - but there is an Eviscerator class in Star Wars, ooops.

[vivid bay]

You can think the ability is cool. It doesn't change the fact that it is another specialty ship. Pretty sure if the community was asked what they wanted, another specialty ship would not have been the answer. The team continues to push out quantity and ignore quality.

[rough belfry]

I have a question though. When did the Mantis or the new Gorn vomit ship appear in the Strange New Worlds show? Did I miss an episode somewhere? I just know how much Scopely loves sticking to lore.

[vale wasp]

Mantis was in S1E6.

Also, STFC is allowed to add some things to official canon, eg. the Torvath.

[acoustic cloud]

Bahahaha haha, another new loop another new ship

How tone deaf of a dying game can you get

[brazen prism]

The biggest question now remains: will we get more free to play space docks? Scopley keeps making new ships, the number of docks in the game has been the same for years... this is becoming more and more of a problem, so many ships, so few docks causes other frustration

[wind shell]

Can the release messages include what the path to the ship is such as store only, refinery/faction with how long it'll take, if it's in the battle pass, etc...

[rough belfry]

Docks don't realy matter if you don't have the officers to staff the ships. I need Hugh and Doctor in Triplicate to get everyone done at once. And the Doctor should literally be duplicatable.

[mighty rock]

The best way to handle too many gameplay loops is to eventually sunset them after players have played them enough. For example, like how the Franklin-A speeds up swarm tasks, and freebooters speed them and faction tasks. So if players are feeling like they're doing too many loops, older loops should start doing stuff like unlocking research that makes the daily loops much faster, or stuff like "scrap these ships to get a new ship that combines the abilities". I'd personally love to see the Botany Bay stuff sunsetted, for example, so I don't have to spend a bunch of time moving from node to node to get daily rewards when I've had that ship maxed for a while.

[weary mason]

Another ARC and new ship geared toward 40+. This is getting old.

[tidal notch]

I'm following up on the f2p path.

[radiant sand]

Another 40+ ship. Don't have to worry about it yet. At least it doesn't need another hostile to fight.
Still waiting to see if May update does reduce loops

[mighty rock]

"This ship will be Gorn-free in the new Gorn Invasion Part 2 arc coming tomorrow! "
This means the ship will be given to everyone for free, right? 😉

[wind shell]

Thanks OH!

[tidal notch]

No no no! But I have to admit it was fun writing the Gorn puns! Really wanted to get "Gorn to be Wild" in there somehow.

[wind shell]

Too late, free ship confirmed 😜

[errant stag]

#⭐-official-announcements message

The Gorn Eviscerator

[tidal notch]

https://tenor.com/view/no-no-no-no-no-no-no-david-rose-david-dan-levy-schitts-creek-gif-20774124

[wind shell]

So the "preview shadow" wasn't kidding, just a different angle.

@tidal notch, gotta have at least some fun with you. Btw with the new SNW in the new ship loop, while Una and La'an were added to ultra packs... What about refinery sourcing?

[errant stag]

I cut that out from the photo dictating the Gorn Eviscerator loop.

It's the center ship photo.

[wind shell]

Oh...I just did a quick look

[warm gulch]

i think that nobody should buy the new ship.
and hopefully they stop bring new .... in this overloaded game. there arnt more houres a day but much more daylies...

[surreal otter]

New ships are nearly ALWAYS store only, silly billy.

[wind shell]

The NX would like a word... Granted I'm still getting BPs, but that at least was a move in the right direction

[atomic pasture]

Hey SCOPELY are you purposely trying to make more people quit? War room release our server had people quit cause of it. If you really do not want to fix the game and stop coming up with stupid crap release your rights to the game to another game company!

[surreal otter]

I said nearly.... And 3.5 months of daily pulls barely counts 😂

[wind shell]

Emphasis was on the always not the nearly 😜 and yeah, I'm still like a month to go... Really hoping they realize it's silly, especially since the Gorn are the gatekeepers to isolytic damage officers which are needed for the Gorn...

[bright grail]

Oh, yay.
Yet /another/ ship that has NO place in Star Trek.
More garbage from a garbage company.

[atomic pasture]

Just remember that what is working will be 50% broken after maintenance. Their promise level rates lower then whale 💩 on the ocean floor.

[terse shard]

you made me curious, so i looked it up - appears that whale poo floats. 😂

[atomic pasture]

It is a saying which means that if you go to look for whale 💩 lower than the ocean floor. You will not find any and be empty of it. Just like the promise scopely made of more quality and less quantity promise. We see more quantity and no quality and hence empty promise 5 months into the New Year.

[unique mauve]

Lower the predatory prices in game. That is all.

[stark lintel]

Which is exactly why they would want to keep it pay gated/long f2p path. 😆

[wind shell]

Any luck on that follow up? Please in the future let it be part of the initial brief...

[jaunty fog]

Another ship, another grind.....and yet more bugs than Starship Troopers...bad thing is we can't nuke these from orbit. 🤬🤬🤬🤬

[cyan arch]

We have enough nonsense bits and pieces on the screen. Please remove that useless video icon which keep popping up. it's very annoying.
Content of the videos equally useless. They are not helpful but badly produced adverts.

[fierce sonnet]

Hello @tidal notch, The News Feed just came out in game about Server Maintenance and when you click on the link it takes you to a timeanddate.com event screen that is showing the wrong date (April 20th) and also time. The News Feed also says that the server will only be down for 2 hours instead of 3 hours.

[junior sierra]

wondering if we get the super short maintenance shields like last time

[tidal notch]

DM'd ya!

[lunar latch]

@tidal notch @weak marten We need to be able to hide all the things in the game that are no longer relevant to the player. Such as all the completed researches, 2* material refinery, officers that are maxed... etc. That is the biggest QoF Scopley could do for the players.

[terse shard]

I’m with you on most of that, but scrollbars in the inventory is my pick for best QoL improvement. ALL inventories/officer lists/anything-with-more-than-3-items.

[red cliff]

@tidal notch So has there been any discussion at all about the SLBs for 51-70? How can level 51 people get any kind of decent scoring when they're using 40 point G4 mats vs G6 players getting 600 points?! You're shutting out a huge number of G5 players from nearly any high placing SLB wins and especially eliminating nearly all the reliable officer sourcing. If its a matter of not enough G6 players, my suggestion is:
SLB for 51-55, 56-60
XSLB for 61+ (x number of servers till they have enough to make it competitive)

You guys are screwing over a huge portion of the active players

[junior sierra]

I'm not leveling to 51 until this is addressed

[red cliff]

My guess is all the 60+ whales on their private VIP server is feeding back that they love this setup (and of course why wouldn't they). and hence they're sacrificing G5 players to the whale altar

[atomic pasture]

Remember after demaintenance tomorrow morning expect some working things to be broken.

[glacial spruce]

Just some? Does "some" mean "a lot" where you live?

[nova sierra]

Ooh new ugly ship day! Yay! I sure hope it will be an explorer! Certainly don’t have nearly enough g4 explorer support/specialty ships in this game..aside from voyager, cerritos, Titan-A, franklin-A , ISS Jelly, nx-01…

[crimson stream]

This seems like the lowest effort thing they've put out. Couldn't bother with a ship name or decent artwork(which actually used to be the saving grace of this game)

[arctic lake]

Hi ScOpElY, please disable the videos that I keep acknowledging but keep coming back. I’d like to hit the help button or not have red badges all over the place for things I’ve done/watched/acknowledged but keep coming back. Now I have to open and start/cancel the video to get them to go away for a short time. But not to worry they will pop up again.
Sincerely,
Annoyed

[echo sable]

just put it below help/events
or put a "Dont show again today" checkbox

[compact terrace]

dont show it EVER again.... would be nicer... but I know scopely cant code something that complex 🙂 it's not like if I wanted to actually view the videos I couldn't just open my user profile and click the button there... 😦

[quick gale]

That video showed the wrong ship, broken localisation and ships that couldn’t go where they were told. The next update will be fun.,,

[low vector]

Serious questions…

1. How many shards will be needed for the new ship?
2. How many will we be earning every week?
3. What’s gonna be broken this time?

Please note that I agree with the people saying ‘ship is too lazy’, but you keep doing this with ship mechanics!

[green silo]

how is it sourced, is it buy only what is it? Most important info is not mentioned.....

[cinder citrus]

Sourcing is explained, weekly event called Gorn Technology, what you have to do for said event is not explained. Literally posted under the info about the 24k event store promo code

[red cliff]

the thing is literally a gorn ship duck-taped with some fed nacelles. lol

[green silo]

it mentions ship parts but not blueprints.

[woeful rapids]

We've been complaining about this since G6 release and Scopely have been actively ignoring us, they don't care, as long as there are G5 players dumb enough to spend inordinate amounts of money to try and fight the G6 players, Scopely are happy

[sacred crane]

There will also be a weekly “Gorn Technology” Event that all players will be able to participate in that will reward players with blueprints.

Fingers crossed for a Cerritos-like sourcing event.

[cinder citrus]

I literally tell you where it is, read! It says blueprints. Parts is in refinery

[red cliff]

people need to add the statement "STOP ADDING SPECIALTY SHIPS" everytime they say "STOP ADDING NEW LOOPS". its getting just as annoying

[crystal mica]

So disappointed with the NX-01, I’m definitely not going to get this thing

[outer sand]

Guys. Can you stop making more ships almost every month. I get it, you got to add more content. But it's another grind yet again. We gave lives and jobs and it's getting a bit much! Let's swet the assets. New ship a quarter is fine but this is just dumb now

[storm oracle]

Perhaps we should all write here "We need more Grind" cause scopeley always does the opposite.
Our CC 🐳 will buy the new ship instant 🤦 🤣

[wooden spire]

Absolutely. I’m afraid that the solution I’ve found is to leave the game. Now my time is used in real life doing things I actually enjoy instead of something which became a frustrating chore, if not second job.

[stable rock]

I Agree with That statement

[hardy gorge]

I'd rather have additional faction ships or some 'enemy' ships that aren't just skins rather than a random one-trick-pony ship that looks like a fanfic mishmash. Or better yet, some of that 'quality over quantity' that was rumoured a while back

[nova sierra]

Yeah the NX-01 isn’t worth the cost at all

[woeful rapids]

"rumoured" 😂 it was just a straight up lie directly from Scopely's mouth, they've been churning out low quality content at a rate of knots because the board of investors make the sin of greed look like a casual sport, all about them squeezing as much money as they can out of this game before they inevitably kill it with their poor decision making

[tough orbit]

Goodbye! Another takes your place 🖖
