Claim all button is in the wrong placeš
Canāt log in
I've never played any game that has so many glitches and problems as this one. Constant major issues keep popping up every time you do maintenance. Are you being hacked by the russians?
notg been able to log on for over 4 hours , mailed support and no reply
Scopely what stage are we in on the wash cycle? Never mind it looks like it is still in Agitate cycle.
This is hella dumb and I will literally never use it. $copely should have replaced the green checkmark with a check box and added a claim button...
Question for folks like me, who are unable to log in (91% issue)... Do you have any non-standard characters in your in-game name?
nope
nope
I do not
Neither do i
No
No
This is a joke. Get it sorted
no
no
Thanks all, rules that out as an issue
The issue isnāt platform based either, itās account based. Was in on low Ops, switched accounts and now both devices have the same error as the same account is trying to log in.
Scopley is probably clueless on what the problem is. If I log on and I am cleared out because this takes forever I am done.
Another update, another cart full of bugs š. I quit this game ages ago, gave up that unhealthy addiction, but I must admit Iām rather addicted to watching it burn. Those still playing, wow, just wow. You have my deepest sympathies.
if you have been playing its not a account name issue it should'nt matter if you have non standard things in your name.
i reckon we all will be cleared out , we are locked out of our accounts
Cannot stress this enough. The claim all dailies button needs to go away
New Daily Claim All button is cool, but needs a toggle or something so you can pick which faction dailies you wont want to claim
Warp Drive still Loading at 91%. Seems like Warp Core Breach. š
ā¦Self Destruct Sequence Engagedā¦
there is a 4 hour ceasefire shield going. and only mobile seems to have the issue of being locked out. I'm in game now on pc
mine won't log in on PC
Can't log in on Mac client either.
on laptop its not working
I'm running to pc , ouch stubbed my toe
Not working on my PC, stuck at 91%
Android and PC both not working.
What a crock of š©,worst update way to go scumplay, You've really dropped a ball with this one as so many folk can't get back in.
all those that can't log in do you use the scopley account to log in and those that can log in do you use another way of logging in apart from scopley account ?
login in with scopely account, cant get in
Nope and having that same issue
not good scopely! your still stuck on the agitate cycle!
so if its all ways of login in thats bust then it rules out just scopley accounts that are messed up
This is true. I can't remember the last time I actually claimed all of these. Except now I have a button that takes a chunk of the screen for me to accidentally do it
been waiting since this morning to log in,
Pretty sure they're still stuck in the "soak" cycle
i get the exact same screen but yet i can log in with my account to the web store using a browser. Typical Scopley , won't let you play but happy to take your money.
Quality vs quantity
Can't log in still!
Problem is def server side. I uninstalled the app and reinstalled. With fresh install I can play the game as a new account. Once I login to restore my game, back to failed login
Once again, Scopely is failing. I hope their employees are sending out resumes because the days of their current employment are numbered.
I was on mobile not able to login . Tried to log with PC not working
Problem is definitely server side
Working on it!
HEADS ARE ROLLING RIGHT NOWš¤øāāļø
91% bug on iOS.
I'm genuinely scared to click the 'Claim All' button in daily goalsā¦after all, all the stuff there could just disappear into Scopely Nirvana š¬
bases will get raided and dopley will not give you them back, had this once before and dopley says they have no record of attack on your base. you can provide proof of what you had before the lockout but they won't provide proof of thier records showing no attack
TOCKS R DOWN "PILOT TO CO PILOT WE GOING DOWN IN FLAMES"
I have 5 Alliance members stuck at 91%, all different platforms, seems to be an account issue/player issue as 1 of them tried 2 different devices (Android/PC) same stuck on 91% and another player on 3 devices (PC/iOS) all three stuck on 91%
Collection of daily goals: 30sec. --> reduced by quality of life improvement about 20sec.
Collection of all other daily collectables: ~20-30min (increasing every month) --> quality of life improvement: 0sec.
Great job. āScopely listing to player feedbackā ā¦.
Any chance there will be a BP point gift for those who can't log in this morning and will thus miss the Hostile Hunt BP event?
Pc login not working either
Now scopely has openly admitted they never did any beta testing before, their solemn promise -sorry: explicit lie- to give us more quality and less quantity and now this total fail in the arc launch, scopely has reached a new low, where everybody thought they couldnt go lower than the deep pit they already were on.
This is total and utter incompetence
PC and android stop at 91%
This sucks beyond suckage
games been out years and they cant get right something that happens EVERY MONTH. beyond comprehension
anyone wanna place bets on how many comp chests we get this month?
cant claim them the system is broken š š©
Remember that one day when everything worked? That was the day BEFORE the game was released.
I can't log in on PC, iPad or Android - even tried clean re-installs and no joy - what a waste
i cannot remember any day everything was working
pre syndicate level 27, the greyed out claim all button just gets in the way of viewing daily goals
Same. Also same clients.
no compensation , they will want ytou to compensate them by buying extra items
to hell with buying stuff... i spent lots already and by the looks of it i would need 2 jobs to get somewhere fast.. so i ve cut back look for cheap sleezy and inexpensive....
This is absurd Scopely!
Yeah, they need a "shopping list" feature. Let us specify the items in each faction store that we want, save the list, and then give us a single button to buy all those things that are off cooldown at once (assuming we have the necessary currency).
Why are you constantly resetting my account to ops 1? Come on, seriously!
i spent a ton at the start not spending another penny
Oh I could start a whole new game but can't login what kind of idiocy are they playing at
Good job on getting the arc launched, really enjoying the....oh wait...
is there ever going to be a pvp arena like one on one arena other than group arena
<@&509690795536941056> Weren't we supposed to have a new battlepass today?
Lots of things wete supposed to start, but as is their tradition, nothing is working right.
Early days but having read the patch notes, there is a great deal for me to completely and safely ignore.
Remember when this was a Star Trek game?
And of course they included research/favours in the Terran faction that isnāt limited to PvP and the Arena meaning those of us that actively hate PvP and will NOT EVER DO IT NO MATTER WHAT SCOPELY DO, will miss out.
So another DOA from Scopely, who Iām increasingly of the opinion that EA is actually funding in order to make EA look good.
Shouldnāt reset already of happened? I mean heck I have 12:30 pm well rounded up by a few minutes anyways and I see no bp events or new missions or able to use the faction store which should be unlocked. Also see no promo cod
Captian said Scotty you have to get warp engines online ,Captian I dont think I can ,the engines have been turned off!!
There is scams out there where they start an early access game that you pay for and after a few month after they have taken a ton of money off 100's of players they take off, Scopley is a better scammer though because they take your money keep the game alive for half the cash cows and screw the other half.
they should come up with a one on one arena , just like the group arena and the same awards
finally got in game
Server 89 has no events, nothing for sale, no new content.
back on server 118
There is new content. You can see the new syndicate stuff, the lv27 Claim All button, and the new officers appear in the Officer screen.
Just no battlepass or new content in the store.
Thanks for destroying my ships and knocking me out of lat solo event Scopely. Good looking out. And you all wonder why I won't spend a single penny on this game?
Why does Byr look like Doc from Back to the Future?
i have events!
Never thought about that once
ā ļø How about to bring back the eventshops, which were not available the whole day because of your 'technical problems'? Many players made an effort to score points in the events and had one day less time to redeem the tokens than announced due to the login problems. ā ļø
Scopely, you log in issue cost my a loss of 2 places in lat rush- from 2nd to 4th. I want to thank you. And I want my compensation gift. Please apply 10 parsteel units to my account promptly. š¤£š¤£
anyone know how you get the refinery mats for new ship ? and do you get enough to use the refinery daily?
Was wondering that myself
what are hte promo codes..i didnt think i saw any annouced
This is what I want to know. I will not drop cash for a ship that requires Arena events to use the refinery.
i know someone who bought it and at t1 it uses 300 tokens to open all the refinery choices
there's A promo code???
#ā-official-announcements message what codes @tidal notch ??
Treasury is not active yet. Everything else seems to work though
Anyone else collect launch chests and faction still locked?
Ah but what is the Vindicator Weekly Event going to be?
It has an M-score so it may be similar to the Outlaw event.
Also, the blueprints bundle efficiency favor....does that DECREASE the BP needed by 30% or decrease the latinum/credit cost by 30%?
I still have Hirogen bounty credits because I wasn't able to log in, so I couldn't finish using them.
They will roll over to the next event
Lost 3 hrs of mining due to not being able to log in. You cost me in the mining event.
You need to finish events before new arcs these days. Never assume the game will be playable in the morning of a new arc
thanks for costin me top 3 in mining monday. terrible.
How about our Star Trek game actually have Star Trek content
No one knows when the next event will occur; the last one was in January.
what are the promo codes?
Do we really need another mechanic to largely ignore until it dies due to performance issues
I am not playing a galaxy quest game this is a Star Trek. Stop breaking the game and put Star Trek content.
if only i was fluent in German lol
Does this company have that same, what's it called, "toxic positivity" issue that just killed Ubisoft? Where no one's allowed to hear or give negative feedback only positive? I can't think of any other reason why we're up to like nine updates in a row with features nobody wants, mostly PVP which everyone knows is completely unbalanced. I don't understand how they keep thinking we're going to be excited for these patches when they introduce nothing anyone's asked for and everything almost no one is interested in. I feel like a message just saying "we need people to be online more our metrics aren't looking good", would feel more genuine than all of these "have to be online running active events that the servers can't keep up with" crap they keep adding to force it.
As long as the whales keep paying them $$$, they don't care.
This isn't even galaxy quest anymore. They are just making up stuff at this point. Ran out of ideas for the IP I guess.
exchanged data for augment tokens. took my data. did not give me tokens.
Section 31 store. lost credits trying to get dolamides.
good job breaking everything. AGAIN.
@tidal notch@raw fiber what are the promo codes?
I dislike the whole idea of the arena so much, that I wonāt even tell you how I think it can be improved. Assaults 2.0.
@tidal notch @raw fiber where are these supposed codes y'all pinged in announcements
"Refrain from picking up the mission" .... just disable the darned thing
They canāt touch it, it will break more.
I love the complete š©show arc launches have become. People cat get in game, systems bugged, lag everywhere, no animations... new faction didn't unlock for me... I don't know how much longer I can support this dumpster fire
What's the point of the new armada ship? None. It is only to put other things behind wall, to annoy players with other grind, waste of resources
<@&509690795536941056> how am i farm my wave credit with this?
<@&509690795536941056> why is brokely incapable of performing even basic QA? The next time they can release an arc with zero problems, iām goin to buy the epic arc pack. (thatās like waiting for pigs to fly)
Remember Warehouse 13? Brokely has File 13, where every comment by players over 5 seconds old goes.
Way to go Scopely, another useless arch and crap no one wanted or needed. Another big swing and a miss by your design team.
So peace shields arenāt being extended while most of Florida is under the gun from Hurricane Milton. I guess the ARC being released takes precedence over the safety of the players. Scopely is so inconsistent. Stop trying to polish a š©!
Trill and Trill2 is the promo codes depending on ops level
Thatās what we get for playing a game that is still in beta. lol
Tell us you don't understand "quality" or "quantity" without telling us you don't understand "quality" or "quantity" š
Beta would be an improvement.
<@&509690795536941056> thanks for solving login issue, but now is over of Hunter event store and many werent able do their last claims...any chance for bringing store back?
Where the promo itās after 1:30 pm and nothing yet it was supposed to be around 1:00pm 1:30pm time frame. And fyi see no change in performance still same bugs and glitches and garbage issues as its always had despite have doing the update
@tidal notch is treasury supposed to be live?
I was destroyed š earlier by a fellow ally... RAID STONEBLOOD...I have never taken out an ally either OPC or otherwise so was disappointed š to say the least especially as it was my D'Vor but regardless...what is the point of an ally, they are supposed to have your back not stab you in it š
Seems to be a new bug: I can't get the last kill here to register. Taken out multiple Roms 39+, but stuck at 24/25 for both Feds and Klingons kill daily
@tidal notch any word on fixing MU waves? Would be nice to be able to claim syndicate XP during a syndicate event
I do like the new change here. But may I suggest, if it's seriously only thousands and you're going to do 2 decimal, Can we just remove the K put the last digit and set the punctuation in between to the language's separator character (so comma in my case)
Move claim all up to a non obtrusive place. Thereās no point in having it eat up so much screen real estate
what's the ETA on getting back to arcs involving recognizable Trek IP?
Seriously...Scopely, you need to remember why people play games, why us, and those working for you used to love sitting back and enjoying a game. Because they were fun, you could win, and we could enjoy ourself. We all bought games that were awful, not fun, and ended up it sat on the shelf never to be touched again. This game is becoming that piece of trash that sat on the shelf. Get back to basics, make the game work, and make it fun, and work on what is fun, and not this constant need to feel you HAVE to add more unwanted garbage. And the so called Devs that kiss butt and try to sell the garbage you're producing, are just as bad. They are a joke trying to convince people the trash you're putting out is the best thing since sliced bread.
I like the claim all but have a deselect box so that you don't want to claim the ones giving negative rep...very few who triple rep
Was just about to ask this, myself.
Best to just undo the whole āclaim allā thing. Itās really not necessary for dailies and is causing a lot more problems than it āfixesā.
All rewards seem to be tagged as "daily goals".
i dont see new pvp button in alliance tab
It's there, it's called arena
Something new I hope.
claim all button in daily goals, and away teams! thank you!
and good job on localizing (I know what it means, just saying in advance).... many Americans will not have a clue what 14/10 is
I'm disappointed with the event store.
what more do you want in it?
Lol nothing fixed just spend the money
Emergency field rations store still having September and not October rewards in @raw fiber
I like the "Claim all" button but it takes too much space on widescreen devices...
that the best thing of this update in my eyes ^^
I donāt need to see if u can only clain one bt
Quality over quantity . Unfounded promise
In some mirror systems you get eye cancer. I tried different graphics settings, restarted the game ... nothing help
@tidal notch <@&509690795536941056> @raw fiber
The Vindicator ship is a good quality add. While not Star Trek IP which seems to be the big gripe amongst the players, it offers a great way to source needed materials for Lorca and Sloan, as well as a nice bump in temporal disrupters. I would make a suggestion. The ship parts needed to upgrade each component from refinery output needs to drastically increase to be on par with other tiered ships like the Cube and Protector. With those ships, the output of parts needed was enough for one component box per refine for the first 2 or 3 tiers before it slowed down. Currently it'll be 3-4 days for each box and that's just not feasible starting out.
Also, the last few arcfall days have had treasury start. I would recommend treasury to start later today or even tomorrow. It's been a few weeks I believe.
We all play a broken beep game we alll play broken beep game
Another fracking ship?
@raw fiber can we please get rid of the ādaily goals claimedā? The old text was much better displaying pts, what event and milestone
Generic not Star Trek shortcut, generic not Star Trek splash loading screen, and like 6 months now of generic sci-fi mobile game content that has nothing to do with Star Trek. When are you going to remove Star Trek from the name and just make it fleet command? It's obvious the Star Trek name is just being milked at this point and has nothing to do with anything that's being added anymore except as a dressing.
<@&509690795536941056> love the new background for mu protector systems
That's a really old bug. I call it the Tholean bug.
Mchammerās newest song just for this game. You canāt fix this
Thanks for the feedback! Will pass on!
Thank you. Will the treasury be active soon? Was.kinda looking forward to that,lol
š
Should add animated violent nebula clouds like the one in mu protector system
Is anyone else having issues with Mirror space being Fuzzy
This is what my MU looks like
not overly happy that the reward claims no longer show what event you are claiming for
The lag earlier made me lose Wave defense credits and dolamides am I getting that eventually or am I screwed?
Please remove the Claim All button in dailies. It just gets in the way. I need to see what I have to do, and I rarely if ever want to claim all!
100% please remove that button. Or place it somewhere else with a bit of modifications: some people have all factions locked and working or one or 2 at a time.
Donāt want to claim everything at once as it removed faction rep unnecessarily.
Do something like officer preset : select what you want / donāt want to claim at once.
It seems more and more this game and the associated events are only for level 40 players and above. And then you wonder why you have to merge servers. Think of what the game looks like to new players. Old, slow, buggy, and supremely boring. And a total rip-off dollar wise even for new spenders.
why can i not see the option to but a fleet commander slot? i am 100% sure i had the option to do so last event store (the one with the chits)
Any word on fixing display item hidden under the Dynamic Island on iPhone 16 pro?
Where is the 5 star Aether Core Tier 7? it is not in the Refinery as it says and I am Operations 51
Just wondering how we are going to do 5 vs 5 pvp when you struggle to target pve hostiles due to the lag
The claim all button in dailies is a nice thought, but it's poorly integrated. Takes too much place, it's harder to see the tasks left, that window doesn't feel good anymore.
Never. Next month is Space Jam IP. They'll do anything to get more $$ from players.... except make a fun game or listen to feedback. That'd be crazy...
The fun missions in the game keep getting the goal post changed. It used to be ops 30+, then 33+, then 35+ now 38+. The Symbiosis isn't fun for those under ops 38, and I would be willing to spend money to get to ops 38 except I know the next event then won't be fun until ops 40 or 41. Just some feedback to make it fun for everyone not just ops 38+.
This. All of This!
The reality is; Scamly doesn't care about feedback At All. Easiest proof; slowmode enabled on a feedback channel on a launch day. Basically, "we want your feedback comments, but we filter with our moderators, so it needs to slow down so we can silence you". People get 24 hour bans for leaving negative reaction-emojis to comments. Yes, you read that correctly.
This is Not the place for genuine feedback or constructive criticism. It's just a sounding tunnel for the devs to feel better about the garbage they've been releasing.
This channel has always had slow mode because it's not meant for discussions, plenty of things to criticize without making things up.
I recommend Game of Thrones Conquest if you want a mobile game that works. Just general tip for my high blood pressure peers.
I guess you haven't been playing as long or haven't been here as long. But the feedback channel started as all other. The slow mode was only enabled after arc launch days started to overwhelm them. So, "always"? No. There are plenty of things to criticize without making things up
<@&509690795536941056> seems that what is advertised isnt what shows up in the chest for the OPS 10-39 PromoCode. Toli says 4 officer shards but you only get 2 shards.
been that way for 2+ years, you're acting like this is a recent change just to spite you, it's not.
Or, now hear me out, you don't understand the English language. Nothing in my comment implied it was a recent change. Re-read it. Also, I never implied anything was to spite anyone, let alone me personally. Devs don't care about individual players. Lmao. Im really not that special...
the pc version of my game has crashed. just a kaleidescope of colour. no start up screen, no image zip just a big block of currently grey blue, started flesh pink. then white. then nothing
Hate to break it to you, but that's "as designed". 99 from there on up.
the old warp & mine
Passing on!
When will the Galaxy store update be pushed out? I bought ya fancy new ship and cannot access the refinery as I'm on last month's version <@&509690795536941056> *Update, response from in game CS was to 'keep an eye out in coming days'
Is Scopely ever going to address the Broken Field Training or are low level alts and new players just not worth paying attention to? I have 2 ops 18 accounts that have Filed Training problems. I submitted a ticket on one account over 6 weeks ago without resolution. Unfortunately this account/device is the only one with Discord so sending screenshots of my problems isn't easy.
Hey, thanks for adding multiple low dollar pack options. Now can you add some value to them without increasing the price???
Scopley should get reward for most broken most failed login issues itās a non stop log out try to log back in play maybe 5minutes then do it all over again
Just fix the game - its not hard to fix bugs and issues as a priority
ships are all new and fragged, Officers are fragged, I have players that are locked in some system that maybe related to Incursions and cant't get back in normal game. This maintenance is a mess and you need to fix it. now. Totally unsatisfactory Scopley. If you gonna be responsible for the management of this game you better own up to the task. You have no reason to be so bad at this.
Why is anyone spending their dollars on this total mess. I refuse to spend money on something that the managers cant keep working .
The claim all button for the daily goals is not needed. Since I select which daily goals I want to claim. Please remove it.
If you can remove the negative rep from the daily claims, then the claim all button will be worth it.
Typical arcfall issues, that are now the norm, combined with launching new content that is region based for beta testing is a new low even for scopely. You guys should either fix this busted game or shut the servers down
Who broke mirror space?!! Why does it look soā¦. Spirally and distorted? How are we supposed to kill hostiles in this messā¦. Booooooooo
https://tenor.com/view/ram-tron-tron-classic-dan-shor-gif-21414081
it's the new tron expansion, or old tron expansion
(it's being worked on)
I don't like that the new daily claim button, that I can't even use, takes away over 2 lines of the list of dailies that have yet to be completed. Move the list over to the left a little and put your new button on the right, restore the height of the list.
This was not a huge QoL improvement even if you do get that high a Syndicate level, as you could already Claim All pretty easily just by clicking the check boxes fast enough.
shouldnāt you guys have done the ācombat testingā before you released the update ? just a thought
I thought that with matchmaking you should be able to have a team without needing a level 40.
no
At least you got the new content
Why in godās name would you not have moved the home button position in the last patch? Itās still in a very stupid location.
Given that the new ship is armada specific and has research specifically targeting solo armadas, it needs to have a research node to boost damage against borg solos due to not being covered by the faction or jelly research nodes that do so currently
Can we please stop using superhighways to decide where Q trials go? Especially when theyāre this invisibleā¦
Or that anyone working faction rep doesn't want to claim certain dailies. Hate the new claim-all.
move your station
I know very well aware why it happens and how to fix it. However, it should not be my responsibility to make up for Scopelyās lack of coding ability. Especially when to do so would require me to remember to check for almost invisible alternate warp paths that I donāt use or even have unlocked.
They need to get their act together, it really shouldnāt be a hard fix. If nothing else, just make sure I have the warp path unlocked even before putting a trial behind it.
Another launch, another day of spender only events. How does anyone enjoy that? Spend money build the ship and look at it. Sure I can do solo armadas but I'm competing with compulsive spenders
I'm not claiming these as I'm going for other reps. My phone screen is narrow. Now only 3 lines are seen. The stupid too thick claim all button worses quality of life. Did you even think that not everyone is using a computer screen or tablet? Allow us to turn it off in the settings.
For me, I actually applaud them for this kind of regional ābetaā test. It may, for the US region, alleviate some frustrations if something launching that needs major fixing. It was hard to get my guys to retry alliance tournaments after the first go. If it does help launch a smoother experience for the massesā¦.then Iām all for it. My 2 pennyās.
Please give an option to turn off the claim all button... It takes up so much space!
The lag is really bad on APAC 187.
Or better yet, put check marks to all of the claims, then a claim button, which would let you select multiples that you want, and then claim them at once.
Completely agree. This button makes claiming dailies worse, not better. The UI implantation is horrendous and I would guess a majority of players are progressing faction rep for one or two factions which makes claiming all undesirable
š¦
Yall suck. Why the fek cant you get gold shields right?
anyone else not able to get in
Yup, just blew up on me too
and now extra maintenance? just in my prime game time so basically wasting my chances at scoring the armada damage SLB... some of us actually have that 4-letter word thing... work... so can't game all day. <@&509690795536941056> so more comp chests heading our way????
#ā-official-announcements message was posted here since yesterday and in game
yesterday is today for us (APAC), when we're heading to that work thing... can hardly call it "scheduled maintenance" with 15 hours notice... it's emergency patching....
Welp, there goes my chances of scoring in the Solo Armada event. I'll be off to bed instead, I suppose. Thanks again Scopely.
#š-suggestions message I added a suggestion on how to make the claim all button actually useful for peeps, would appreciate the support @ornate oracle @thick whale
Where is the Problem to get a functioning patch before releasing it...thats what testservers are for.
Is the game updating again?
there it is in a simplified form. The Scope looks way too ambitious regarding time and cost.
If you push scope without compensating with time and cost -> quality will suffer.
indeed, in planned maintenance for some hotfixes
planned fixes to mitigate hot mtce?
Can we have a ā collect all ā or automatic collect for the missions if people donāt wanne fly around in circles ? Missions is kinda boring , can we skip that if a player wants that ?
Game just crashed fot everyone on server 201...... how much maintenance do u think is required to get the game working at,....say......65% quality?
Game crashed on 188 <@&509690795536941056> multiple players stuck at social authentication
Can't even login PC or mobile
<@&509690795536941056> game gone down again just now. Stuck on loading screen, won't load past 66%
Yep same, APAC 187 if the overlords are looking
Come on scopely, really...
Arena is gonna be fineā¦..ššš
Oh well, it's not like apac servers are being used as beta testers for alliance arena or anything in a day or two
Probably at a time that we are all at work or something too I bet
Any idea what the redeem code/s are this month
TRILL1 or TRILL2 depending if you are under or over OPS 40
Just fix the game thatās already useless instead of adding more content to the useless game. How hard is it. Create a quality product already!
APAC's crashed....
188 is back online
Screw up again scopes. Your hot fix on 187 is a hot mess. Iām not logging in to battle a warbird
Canāt wait for the trainwreck soft launch of arenaā¦. 30 day shield going up until the rubbish game shows some promise
what about a comp chest for those with the 91% problem and were not able to collect stuff in the hirogen store cause it was gone when we could log-in again?
Please eliminate the claim all button for dailies. It is poor interface design given how much screen real estate it occupies. No one should use it given negative faction reputation attached to our dailies. People purposely pick and choose which dailies to take credit for in order to focus on faction reputation. This is a solution that was looking for a problem that doesn't exist.
Get rid of the daily task āCollect Allā button, please!
I would like to see Prime Assembly Medals added to one of the new stores so the 5 prime researches in the Starbase tree can be completed.
Get rid of collect all daily button
Or at least, put in the header what daily is claimed.
<@&509690795536941056> Please eliminate the āclaim allā button for dailies AND better manage the status bar making it thinner so more dailies may be displayed..
Not sure what they fixed but MU waves still broken
DAILY GOAL CLAIMED now I don't know for which event I'm receiving rewards.
Who thought this was a good idea? Waste of energy. Please revert back to appropriate reward notifications
Scopely, do you ever actually talk to users before releasing content like "claim-all" for dailies? The fact that you put that on there suggests that the PM's don't even play the game at all.
#š-suggestions message I'm trying to get it improved! please react to this and ask your DC members to do the same š„°
Would like to know where the daily pull of FC credits went? They were in the gift tab and we could get them for 1 pastel daily.
This one?
<@&509690795536941056> any update on when MU waves will be fixed?
Nothing yet but they are aware and working on it.
They working on any comp for 75k points we wonāt score in the syndicate event because the waves are broken?
Good hunting APAC and we're looking forward to hearing your feedback!
haha arena will be buged and laged to hek
<@&509690795536941056> not seeing territory event, despite season pass not ending for another 5 days?
Guys. Incursions was cancelled.
why i got 20 allaince red counter for claim or amairds in acation but nothing thire smiple bugs like that should be easy fix in maintes so why areaner will fail
Kill it! (Donāt, heās probably just trying to do his events and stuff and is as upset about being there as you are for him being there)
check rewards
i've been having this issue since update
It took me 9 swarm kills to get 18 points. What happened to X3?
<@&509690795536941056> ability cooldowns also aren't working?
works fine on my side, Pokebuddy. How about a clear loc?
Tried a clear loc, had to fully close the game and restart
any news on territory event?
some things just taking a LONG time to happen
still checking with the team, it should be up now but I don't know where it wentttt
It has arrived, but alas, we've just had our first defence finish so didn't score š
Yo Simpauly! Is there supposed to be a Jellyfish Auction that pops when Jelly brawl does?
Well you better hurry up, you donāt have long left!
Every time I pull RSS in refinery, getting the swirl for like 3 to 6 seconds, I guess more of the quality experience they promised over content
@raw fiber so is scopely not going extend the hirogen bounty hunter event store? Since it was entirely scopelyās fault that whole group of players couldnāt login and use their tokens from ranking on the SLB
Thanks for reminder, I knew there was something we asked about but hadnāt chased up on. Let me nudge again.
Iām still missing a reward for naming Kira as the changling.
These are not ādaily goalsā. They are event rewards and should display what events they are for. CHANGE IT BACK. And for 𤬠sake, hire some competent devs. This is ridiculous.
Or make the āClaim Allā button a lot smaller AND inside the status bar in some way. It saves me time claiming it all with one click. We just need that bar to be a lot thinner so we can see more dailies as you mentioned and definitely NOT have the button at the bottom.
āClaim allā button was VERY poorly designed/implemented. And even the SMALLEST test group of ANYONE who actually play the game could have told you that.
<@&509690795536941056> as a suggestion can we get some NSEA Beryllium parts in the event store?
Stop changing the App icon for every new ship. This is just bad, and it shouldnāt take explanation to show why itās bad. Icons should be a consistent representation of the ENTIRE app, not a āFlavor of the Monthā display of whatever new content has just been added.
Dear scopely , space lags in the game, call your employees from the circus, do something, not a game, but torture šæšæš
<@&509690795536941056> can we get these added to the event store asap please
Did you let the blind intern design this? I am trying to understand how the design language ties into the game at all other than a formulaic cash grab of a half baked system that will more than likely be broken or abandoned
Please, please, sort out the 'Daily goal claimed' thing. It's super annoying. If it's a feature and not a bug, then it's a really bad decision.
That should be fixed on tuesday's update
š
Change this back. These are not daily goals, and I want to know my final ranking.
You can just scroll to the right beyond the active events and look in the completed events š¤·āāļø
At absolutely no time was there a request for your unsolicited opinion.
It's called being helpful but you just want to cry so carry on
the alliance screen no longer shows unclaimed Alliance Rewards, though the alliance button on the main screen still alerts about unclaimed ones
If this is the solution, I would like to have my problem back.
Imo i c nothing wronge with it if u don't want to hit claim all don't click each individual one that you want to click to finish i don't see any problem with it
After listening to player feedback back we are selling another packššššššš
Yeah, itās like getting your email with event result in spam box. Just scroll š
So we get an update on packs getting put back in store but not about the million bugs or updates on fixes. Get your bleep together already scopley. You gotta be loosing more and more players each day
<@&509690795536941056> mirror waves look like a lsd trip. There is no chance to do them and we run/ran out of mirror credits.
Is there a eta when this will get fixed?
The problem for me is that Iām selective with which dailies I collect the rewards for, because some will reduce rep for factions Iām working on. This is a fairly common thing for players to be doing.
So this button is only ever going to get pushed accidentally by me and quite a lot of the player base.
Pack will be available in the store tomorrow.
<@&509690795536941056> Any chance you can announce what the free path will be to get the Vindicator?
next month
I understand the whole rep thing for people but then all they have to do is what they always did click each one they want yes for phones there is 1 row missing but it's not so bad they need to remove it I like it but I only work on 1 faction
+1 for them giving enough currency in the weekly event to pull all the Vindicator chests daily
Iām fine with there being a claim all button, but there are faaaaaaar better ways to add it to the UI than devoting the bottom 20% of a screen to a button a lot of players wonāt ever be pushing.
Looking at the vindicator, it has a decent ability (taunt) but i always thought it would be better suited to an officer's captain ability. You still could do that but with less effect and some specific synergy on the new ship as well. That would make this ship and potential officer a must have for armadas.
(HINT it equals more sales)
Areas in dark space
Anyone else not able to apply Cerritos buff? Screen disappears before I can apply the buff.
Raised and being looked into!
The game is absolute garbage now. You roll out new features to specific servers and still want money. LOL.
You know whatās irritating? That stupid Video thing over the helps button. I just cleared it out and had 16 helps under it. Can we do away with that PLEASE!!!
Holy mother of LAG...
Oh yeah well how bout this blue is a ostentatious color and screams I'm sad.
Did today maintence fixed the new quests?
Claim another failure Scopely
fix what new quests? comeuppance is an old mission that was causing problems, the current arc missions have no issues as far as i've seen
lag is bad on 703
Quality over quantity please.
Nooooo, continue the dumpster fire, it is saving me money.
The Daily Goals claimed banner doesnāt say what event it was for???????
Should be fixed tuesday
with the tractor beam?
I'm not sure if y'all know this or not.... BUT, lag is causing some serious playability issues at the moment. I mean, I'm pretty sure you know it, since its such a common occurance, but I really don't want to take a chance that you're just looking away from it........
This please, people aren't really buying this ship (I think we're tired of speciality ships that we will not fly). Lots of inquiring minds are curious.
thats cool buy packs though
let's say i take the protector out to mirror space to punch up on those survey ships. How should i crew? Still Pmc? level 42 with a T3 Protector
U N P L A Y A B L E
Dude, can we make stfc playable again?!....hostiles aren't even loading. I thought yall just spent 2 separate occasions working on improvements. Fix waves as well
what is up with the lag?????
Battle logs are broken too....s61 is unimpressed with the broken promises of a better 2024
They set a very low bar for quality in 2023, but amazingly, there's been even less quality in 2024....No shortage of quantity though š
Itās not on stfc.space so I think itās new, just not one of the Holodeck missions
It's not new, it's actually an old mission.
https://startrekfleetcommand.com/news/update-54-voyager-pt-1-patch-notes/ was mentioned here
Fixed a localization issue where on the Mission āComeuppanceā there was an unsupported character for č“ is displayed as a square
According to markings on the probeās outer casing, it appears to originate from a Starfleet vessel bearing the registry NCC-74656ā¦ā The discovery of a lost Federation probe marks the beginning of a journey almost 70,000 lightyears in the making. Adrift in the farthest reaches of the Delta Quadrant, the crew of the USS Voyager have [ā¦]
I got confused by this whole Comeuppance Mission, thinking it was a new one that was needed for the SMS. Ignore that - the new misisons are listed in the event details and are under the Mirror Universe tab on the Holodeck
Yup MU waves still broken
Hey scopley!!!!!!!! How you expect people to keep playing if nothing in the game is working correctly?!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah and everyone knows itās going to be another of those pay to win rare and epic armada only type of events that further screw over free to play players since this broken game became more and more about pay to win
Hey, they just had a maintenance where they didn't fix anything and made the lag worse. Be grateful, they're doing the best they can! š
If their best is just getting lazy and sloppy over their almost 7 yrs of this game then Iāll agree with that. Itās companies like this that make the gaming world look bad.
I hope all you cash spending whales and dolphins wake up to see your getting ripped off paying for a broken game that gets far worse , and people at scopley donāt care about you only your money. Itās why nothing gets fixed you get nothing but bot run around with tech support. Never in my 50 yrs have I ever had this bad of dealings with any business of any kind.
Don't know if this is a bug or just incorrect coding from when the fleet commander button was taken from the top bar and put on the desktop, but please relocate the home button to the location above the fleet commander button. It is in the way. When I am grinding or in a wave or anything the home button keeps getting hit and takes me out of the system Im in. It makes me lose time in the wave defense for one thing.
Hey @tidal notch any chance of a Grabthars Hammer building exo this weekend to go with the mat spend event? Ty.
Please remove claim all button from dailies, or at least make it much smaller and on a different location . Very annoying!!
@tidal notch Completing the weekly Dimensional Breach SMS that runs on Thursdays will give players enough Spacework Circuits (2100) to claim all chests in the Vindicator Refinery for the week. Hammy, last I counted 1200+700+300 = 2200 not 2100... type-o on your part?
That's for the arena, he's talking about the vindicator event.
each chest is 100
I am pretty sure that anyone who thought the large black bar for nothing else but the new Claim button there is a good idea, never checked the game on a small screen. This is simply a NO WAY placement. Give us back the whole screen for the list, please. Also, I am sure there's other places to put the Claim button, too. (To top bar with the crates for example, left or right corner.)
Why did you remove what sms/slb/etc rewards we are claiming when he click on the events button? So annoying.
You actually think anything they do is deliberate? Lol, I assume that they put a blindfold on & just hit the keyboard for a few minutes.

https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/USS_Defiant_(2370)
what the defiant in STFC is not .... one could say from the north star .. though .. and now the vindicator ? but .. missed a nice lore correct oppertunity here š
new feature Arena Combot test my live streaming for star trek fleet command
Please make it easier to collect all daily stuff. This is getting out of hands
You said the ISS spawn was back at 5 minutes or so but the lvl60 one in Mirror Kar clearly is not. 15 minutes and only the 1 that was there when I entered the system....
2.5-9
The claim all button ate my daily rewards. I was at Ex-Borg and completed over 14 daily quests at once. I then pressed claim all and while the chests were still loading at the top I clicked on the chests and then I only got half of the rewards, but all the chests were checked off, which was a bummer.
Arena works OK...but pairing of opponent could be better, 1st one we went against was way to high a level and had no chance... also a warning should have been mentioned about all ships being automatically recalled to base, I had some in Token mining space when I started Arena event š¦
support broken as well now !!
The power difference makes it not fun. Restrict to g3 ships. Then it comes to research and crew. Not a LVL69 flying around in a cube
Arena works ok (store claiming seems a bit wonky), but the matchmaking seems to be exclusively your whole team gets curb stomped with no chance or the other way around. Not even close to a a balance. Also seems like youād need to do a million fights to buy anything in the shop. Oh, and the āit recalls all your shipsā (including miners etc) is an issue :(. Hoped it would be like waves where you could pick a coup,e of ships to join.
<@&509690795536941056> EU server 403. Ships not arriving at destinations they are sent to(Vidar sent to 33 probe space ending up in a fed system) & ships now not launching at all. š¤¦āāļø
the same for me on 403. they even aren't able to take a fight...
Get rid of the 2 minute timer for repair in the new Arena event , had a ops 66 player wipe everyone else out and I had to wait 2 minutes plus to help them , ridiculous, we ended up with no ships in , that could make a difference
<@&509690795536941056> What did you do this time? Some can't attack hostiles, some can't warp ...
Scopely needs to release a detailed roadmap ASAP. Unless thereās a massive new feature in the pipeline or refactoring the entire code base then thereās no alignment with players.
New officers are wildly unattainable due to bugs and$ price gauging (so why bother creating them).
New features get axed (incursions, war room, starbase) because of performance (so again, why bother).
CMs should be more closely aligned with company leadership. I canāt help feeling that scopely doesnāt even know the extent of the permanent damage being done.
Someone needs to step up.
APAC Arena Feedback:
- Great fun IMO
- The matchmaking is... uneven. A bunch of ops 58+ players vs ops 52< is not fun for anyone (except the winning team maybe haha)
- Not being able to see the alliance screen during a match is a bit annoying. It just goes blank.
- The little button to switch between score and directives is š
- No cloaking kinda sucks. Would make for interesting PvP
<@&509690795536941056> EU118 is broken too
this is ridiculous, going to fail so many events and dailies because cant even leave a system or use a mining or takeover node or ... well ... anything
Great soft launch for arenas developers. You got that working ok. But wait waves are now brokenā¦. Can you just fix the stuff thatās there and make it crash less before trying to add new dumb stuff. Like how hard is itā¦.
Feedback. Freebooter space on EU121 is looking like we're playing Tron
you actually managed to get somewhere ? on an EU server ? that's already an improvement, most of us cant even move our ships out of the systems they were already in LOL
I canāt mine or send ships anywhere
did you update the client with the last maintenance?
did the majority of all the EU servers update their client with the last maintenance that we've been playing since ? I'm gonna hazard a guess at .. Yes.. being people's answer š
after a fresh restart of the game and the launcher, my ships are back home (for the miners) and where they should be for the one i've sent away
We cannot do MU waves which means we cannot claim, and there is an event on for this!!!
but the game was already updated yesterday, and perfectly working this morning
Can I just say, that when you run an event rewarding syndicate xp, and you STILL are not able to reach the first rung of the rewards tableā¦shouldnāt need anymore more proof to never spend on these folks again.
Seriously, they will just keep moving the bar on you.
Pathetic.
Man this is the best Quality of life update there is. Everything works so smoothly.
we want more of this kind of Quality !!!!
its ok they sold over 4000 new ships $$$
That's why we can't run waves....to encourage spending. Once it's done it'll get fixed
Yeh keep adding more and more as the servers can't cope already!!! as long as the $$$ comes in!!! everyone wants new stuff so we can sell more!
Loving the claim button, but not where you put it. Makes it harder to see the list of dailies left. Please think about moving it off to the side instead, you could always shift the dailies to the left too if needed?
Look how much it covers. So ugly and can barely scroll dailies
Got to 2nd milestone without packs.
<@&509690795536941056> we either need the MU Waves or Section 31 Mirror Credits - we run out of credits and can't do Waves cause of the bugs
So we also lost out on this
<@&509690795536941056> - probably reported already but MU waves on Server 20 are busted. They look like the above...all Tron'ed out. Regular waves are fine...but the MU are busted.
How many resources did you spend? I am talking straight free pulls. No S31 pulls.
Why does it seem like my G dock has lost it's Turret I got it to 54 and then got the Dock to 55 and then it Disappeared????
Section 31 store used obviously, itās part of the free daily claim routine. The game has many problems but this isnāt one of them⦠Imo itās improved and we get more syndicate XP now than weāve ever had, both paid and free.
@raw fiber i dont seem to have access for the channel for feedback on APAC beta test of Arena,
so here we go:
it is awesome as a concept... fun, when we can actually be transported to the arena systems.
we had to restart/ClearLocalisation so so so so so so so so so many times, and it is not a guarantee that we will be able to move to the arena.
lots of glitches, lots of bugs, i and some didnt get the rewards the same while we were all in the same squad.
and ofcourse, the " Ready" for squad deployment is always active, after the arena event is finished.
i wish you all the luck to launch it officially with , lets face it - minimum bugs as possible..
Only docks A - F have them, docks G and H were added long after⦠thankfully without extra guns, shields are annoying enough. ššš»
Cheers I thought I lost 1 š
the infinite treasury notification is back... we've been getting a notification that our alliance consumable has expired over and over for an hour plus now
lag came back. and lagging new stuff
minimum amount of bugs ? lol ,... these guys didnt even bother to test the arena before getting it live on the APAC servers, sounds like most of the stuff you mentioned would have been caught if tested for even an hour by their internal teams
their tests went so smooth they thought 4 days on a weekend is enough time to fix all the bugs and design flaws people may encounter 𤣠just shows how delusional they are about the state of the game
FC not working, exocomp not working
anyone else having to restart their client between every armada because of all the ghost ones or just me?
why is Voyager's 8472 cooldown at 2 minutes now instead of 1?
when is the new version of the field training going to be implemented again?
No eta
Ghost armadas everywhere, armadas not showing up in AC yet you insist on not fixing issues and releasing new contentš¤š¤š¤
Make the vindicator scale to its ship level not bloody Ops level
<@&509690795536941056> Will there be no compo chest for the huge service outage of the european servers today where you not even bothered to make an announcement about?
How about doing something about the hate speech on server 51??? Or the bullying of players??
Hm. Lemme look into this.
ghost armadas everywhere, lag between screens, ships moving very slowly then speeding up at the end or vanishing and reappearing at destination. server 703
Game virtually unplayable due to lag
I'd like to reiterate how much I hate the look of the new ship. I know it seems like a trivial compliant, but it looks like you just bought a generic scifi asset pack and imported it into the game. This ship could have been the iss shenzou or the iss Charon from Discovery since Lorca is the big bad from the story this arc. It shows that you guys don't care about this game anymore, just what you can charge us for. The least amount of effort for the most amount of profit
Hostiles in the MU are all over the place. Most are frozen, and those that aren't, are moving super slow. almost impossible to do any kind of farming here >.>
<@&509690795536941056> Are territories being reset on Tuesday? When is that happening next if it's not Tuesday?
General feedback channel? Ok, some general feedback..
I've been playing STFC since before official launch, started when the game was in BETA. I remember the server maintenance and the genuine disbelief that underpinned the announcement.
I've seen some shonky release updates over the years since.
But this one is special.
<@&509690795536941056> @tidal notch @raw fiber
This is every mirror wave system in us server 102.
They know, they're working on it
Looks like a neon Unicron
Hey y'all....... My Cloaking cooldown timer is stuck at 00 and it's not letting me reactivate it.
Daily event āClaim Allā button is not a QOL improvement. I find it useless. Claiming dailies individually never takes more than a few seconds. And the amount of screen real estate that the button takes up (even when not there) is a big negative. I wish it didnāt exist.
Still not fixed? Pinnacle has two "n"s, even in simplified English
It's worse than you though actually. It was supposed to be "Pinochle of Power" š³
I like the idea, poorly executed though... Seems like an after thought.
I find the button to be very handy, collecting 15 dailies all at once was definitely more than a few seconds. I guess itās one of those things that is player dependent, sone will find it useful, others less so. Same with its position and size, causes me no trouble on a tablet, but canāt be good on a smaller screen, but that said, if it obscured all the daily tasks, I wouldnāt notice.
And another mind awakens
actually, i think its a fun ship - especially from behind - i'm sure that has been done on purpose too š
#angryship
Clearly on purpose
MU waves still broken how many days....
It should be fixed tuesday.
gotta love a bit of scopley dev humour š»
Yes the clowns might fix that issue, only problem they will make another 10 to replace it.
<@&509690795536941056> Sounds like millions still without power in Florida etc? The gold shield going to be extend to help these players out? I get some player donāt like it because make raiding hard but we all know we wouldnāt want to be raided dry like that.
if only there was a HF for the ship.......... below the portruding nose: a tongue poking out or a smile which appears or animated wave. @finite mural
Does that mean we will get a comp chest for all the lost Waves we could have done š
Getting stuck in between screens more and more often, sick and tired of this š© š¤¬
Any word when and if there will be a treasury? Normally drops at the start of the arc but this one seems to be different.
Please donāt subject us to this here; itās against the rules of the Discord. Report if necessary and block, and if you need CM assistance message them directly for support š delete this message please.
I have seen this kind of thing sent to them mates and even Worse than this. Was only Muted after many times but they were a whale........ Which suxs.........
Has been REPORTED nothing gets done or fixed not being a jerk stating facts
Please don't post screenshots of inappropriate content here -- if you don't like reading it, neither do the over 100K people on here. That said, I'm sorry you're experiencing this.
How many times has this person been reported to CS? Is it one person reporting or multiple?
next month: new skin for that
@raw fiber @tidal notch is Grabthars Hammer not going to be a thing anymore?
@tidal notch Please include non-US servers for peace shields as some players who may be living in Florida can also be found on non-US servers!
I'm wondering whe you're going to fix all the so called "minor" issues that have been created evertime you come up with a new event
The claim all button needs to be removed. If you're not triple faction locked you shouldn't be using it. It takes up way too much space. And it broke the event reward claim titles. Please roll back this awful change
Every event now says "daily goals claimed". I have no idea what event I'm progressing in without spending 10 minutes digging through the events tab
take those videos you keep making us automatically download and stick them down a plasma conduit. every time you post new ones you increase the lag, and make the game have issues. if i want to watch a video on anything related to the game ill use Youtube.
<@&509690795536941056> could we maybe get mini-comp (just with what weād get from running a few waves) before the final comp when MU waves are actually fixed? Iām running out of liquid trellium and MU wave credits and I canāt run the waves to replenish my stores.
Not getting any betterā¦š
Canāt even get into the game, stalling out at 70%
<@&509690795536941056> the mu wave hasn't been working for 4 days, that's 2.2 billion calls i couldn't get for the credits. can you finally fix it. i'm not even upset that the 500% warpbooster has been expired for 1 hour and keeps showing up in the display
Itās fine keep releasing broken content some one will pay for it. Why fix anything, just tell our suckers err costumers weāre looking into the issues but we will never fix
Lag lag lag
Fix is coming and there should be a comp chest shortly after.
Guys, normally I use to complain friendly about dev.
But changing the mobile Icon is one of the biggest NoGoes Business can make; unless itās a rebrandingā¦.
Whatever thx for the case
! save the Enterprise avatar for STFC Mobile logo ! the original emblem of the Enterprise is what first caught my eye for this game in the first place as i was scrolling for a game to play. so there is my 2 cents on the matter as well
Depends on the viewing angle whether the icon / product has recognition value
Recognition value has always a relationship to time on screen. Meaning than more an icon is visible day to day on a screen a user will create a relationship to the product increasinglyā¦.
Naturally, if the icon itself, from a design point of view, has more recognition value than better for this process
I want a poop as Icon š¤£
Lol if i saw a game with some random sci-fi logo called STFC i would question its legitimacy and not download it
Regular wave lag is so bad, it's unplayable š
I don't know who is in charge of the arena preparation event but the person really didn't do a good job if he let all servers compete against each other
What makes the missions with the boarder around them special?. Or just some graphical thing?
These gold borders indicate your āMainā mission chains. Ie: they are important, like unlocking deep space. Which by the looks of it, you did forever ago š
Thanks!. Yea last week I discovered deep space
So I don't get to know who or what level players I'm going against? Just blindly gain as much power (read: give $copely money) as possible?
Did you guys put the game on the slow server again. Especially the parts where you claim chests etc. Iāve frozen up and had to restart my phone about every ten minutes now. It is really getting tiresome.
This game has become Star Trek Reboot Command
Arena Combat during two mining events in a game in which PvP is unbalanced due PvE buffs and personal skills are useless because the game is 2D generation...ehmm, so, you know...complains coming but Monday is so far, far far away...Monday, not galaxy.
...and yes: feedbacks from the future need "remove players" function as in waves...why is it not here? Am I in the wrong time?...Great Scott!
Are there any news on this? Currently Support is not even willing to give me my armada directives back that I lost due to this and now an armada event is running
#ā-official-announcements message
Compensating after the issue is fixed is a poor choice. If you're out of credits you will be missing out on buying the stuff what you want and the ideal compensation would be to give those things. But since it will vary between players it's not a realistic choice.
Giving full rewards from completed mirror wave every 3 days until the issue is fixed would be a better way to go and people wouldn't really care how long you take as you're essentially autocompleting waves for them.
im frustrated. i enjoy wave defences. but the lagginess, the screen bouncing around, inability to click on hostiles. so aggravating. theres so little else for me to do in game and its a feature i want to participate in š¤¬
<@&509690795536941056> Can we perhaps get event store coins in ticket events? I remember we got them a long while back but I feel for those of us who are now storing them do not really have much use to spend them on unless going for those 'premium' tickets and of which we do not get enough to make it worth the time to strive for and perhaps collect but this is just my opinion.
Also I want to quantify that as someone who doesnt really buy packs too much apart from £20 battlepass or IF i genuinely have the cash i would splurge a little. However, I have noticed more of a cash grab with less value these days and less of the doing more QOL for the game in either the apps or PC. It was only recently we learned through ultimatdjz twitch/YouTube VOD about fixing bugs on-the-fly with the upcoming PvP feature which is fine but please consider the investigation and improvement into more background smoothing and perhaps listen to your fans when we say "Please fix these x and y major issues."
It most certainly has. If u get ten minutes without systems disappearing or ships behaving normally u are doing well. I'm not sure I have EVER seen a supposedly a grade game in this state of disarray on a daily basis.......month after month after month.
Might as well do a ReBoot crossover arc
It sucks I can't see what place I finish in slb events any more. Rewards just say "daily goals claimed" for some reason. Is this a bug?
It should be (a bug), but you can go to the "blued out" event and see exactly where you placed by clicking Results
<@&509690795536941056> The cosmic cleanup store is missing...
looks like the one you pay in works so cant be a store bug š
The Cosmic Cleanup event store is missing... <@&509690795536941056>
yes it is
check back in about 20, it's been running late the last couple of arcs
no is not there
cc sotre on on 114 as well more compo
Please fix mirror waves
No store for cosmic coeanup
No store for cosmic clean up plssss
Looks like they're working on it. Doesn't work, but it is there.
Nope. Nothing changed
Is the comp chest going to completely underwhelming, or it will reflect peoples ability to finish wave 10 on a 40 MU daily?
So the comp for the much waves needs to be significant. A full wave worth of rewards for every day we can't do them would be reasonable, because that's basically what many are potentially missing out on (I'm definitely missing out on that much at minimum).
should but won't
Itāll be 300 directives and 50 mu credits.
You wish. It will be 300 parsteel and 50 emergency field rations .
Two tokens and a blue engram
best wishes and a reach around
<@&509690795536941056> I am getting a lot of reports of players that will quit if the Arenas go ahead where it brings in deployed ships. A lot of this game is Farmville in space, and players want to keep the mines they have, especially where they are in deep space.
Given that the only way to progress this new rep and events will be to participate, many in my alliance and other alliances are telling me they won't do it and might as well quit.
We were promised more quality over quantity, but we have not seen it happen. Many only play because it is Star Trek, and you did not even add another Star Trek ship to this event. Even the artwork has nothing Star Trek on it! At this point, you should start calling the game Star Ship Fleet Command. With the enormous amount of bugs worsening, maybe even replace the "p" in "Ship" with another letter at this point!
If you want to keep more players from fleeing this game, as we have seen far too many recently, you must make some changes, even if it requires delaying the launch.
Is there any information on when scopeless will manage to get the MU waves running again?
fix it -.-
tuesday
Is vancord ban able
Itās almost impressive that the person in charge of the UI for this game remains employed, despite the industry-wide layoffs putting so many competent people out of work. The decision to remove the line explaining which event you scored rewards from when claiming them is just the latest in an endless string of incompetence.
It's a bug and it'll be fixed on Tuesday, you can express your feedback without lobbing insults.
After being lied to for so long,, insults are deserved.
Yeah no, that's not how this works.
Truth vs insult, sure you know how this works?!
We can play a game if you like?
Truth - especially in context given - is a matter of perspective, particularly apportioning blame where evidence is based on an evident lack of experience. Insults are insults whether they are truthful or not.
But please, indulge yourself if you believe you know better. Iāll grab some fresh popcorn.
Can the bright spark who thought the claim button taking up unnecessary space please kick himself in the head. Then his supervisor can do the same who gave the thumbs up to allow it.
How is it that even at max assessment rank you cannot fully upgrade a forbidden tech? 
because it's unfinished content
I don't have an FT that high. What level do you get stuck at?
55, stops at tier 11
Monkey business
so whens next at apraning?
š
ty
Idk if this is the place to put this but is there a way to change the colour of the greyed out boxes in the store? It makes reading the info in them near to impossible!! <@&509690795536941056>
The claim-all button can be helpful, especially when hitting the freebooters and completing so many dailies simultaneously. But yes, that one button takes up a lot of retail space for what it is. My biggest issue is that there is no exclusion from the claim-all, especially when players are working on raising other reputations and do not want to claim the higher rep rewards as they lose too many points.
The claim button is fine...it's the placement that needs to be addressed. Absolutely zero thought into that.
Honestly, even if they add exclusion option I wouldn't trust in it.
And the 'daily reward' for ever reward ain't much chop either.
<@&509690795536941056> hy for the arena battle that starts tomorrow, i have the following question. do i have to call my miners back before the battle or can they stay on the mines? greetings
The community mangers again pinging about the new stuff: Arena Combat launch is ready worldwide! You can access it through the Alliance button, where you currently see a countdown displaying the remaining time until the battles kick off for your region. It can be great yes.. But scopely need to focus on fixing the crazy amount of bugs, errors, lags in this game .. that is still not happening š”
And yet another day of yellow/red flashing network icon, with the usual crashing and restarting.
Fujitsu wrote better code in the scandal hit Horizon system for the British Post Office.
You canāt even fix the basic things. Iām so glad I decided to stop awarding your mediocrity with my Battle Pass money. Youāre not getting another penny from me until you have a full calendar month with no new content at all and nothing but bug fixes. So obviously, no money from me ever again because that will never happen.
Useless the lot of you.
It yoinks all your miners back to your base when you enter the arena
what nonsense, who came up with such nonsense? it's not like it's late Monday. I say whoever plans something like that doesn't play the game. otherwise they wouldn't come up with such nonsense.
This is a weak moth: the officers, the event store. Weak.
Testing on APAC was a step in the right direction. Maybe make a beta server too?
I appreciate the try of the "Claim All" button on the Daily Goals, but it has a problem in the implementation. A lot of people, including myself, are working on raising reputation on a single faction. We can't collect them all. So now there is that button we can't use, PLUS it's taking up a third of the screen space of the goals, so it makes it harder to scroll them to get to the ones I do need to collect. So it has simply made things harder.
I offer two solutions to this implementation:
-
Give us a configuration where we set which faction(s) the Collect All button applies to. Then we could use it.
-
Just like the Hailing Frequencies has a setting to show or hide its button, we need that for the Collect All button so we can get it out of the way if we are not going to use it.
weird severe intermittent lag
In arena combat, I can't play with players in my alliance because they're in different time zones??.
Why this statement on the scopely website but not enforced in stfc it looks like youāre using the war to gain bonus points but donāt want to actually give up the money coming from Russian players itās a bit low if thatās the case
super common across apac servers unfortunately. A lot of the high 60's and ops70 players are locked out by their ops level too.
Might want to add paid name change. to keep players from abusing name changing. We should be able to track player that are dishonest.
not able to get any loot from killing silent enemies, no cargo/chests. š
2k hostile limit
yeah thanks that'll be it. had two ships out building xp overnight. though i should still be able to get cargo right? just no chests
no cargo, not chests, rep or exp
All of a sudden my fame started lagging badly. Then that stupid icon for new videos pops up. Coincidence I think not. If I wanted to watch videos I would go to YouTube. Stop it already and fix the errors. Or at least make hijacked ships scrappable.
Passive xp grinding is about the poorest way to do it ever since ship xp exocomps became a thing. A half hour of active grind > than sitting overnight
lol thanks. i need to do more active rep grinding
Also, xp grind during invasions is now the best time to do it. The kratu hostiles are super squishy for their levels so you can net way more xp as long as you can get to them.
Seit Monaten verspricht euer Support, dass ihr mit Hochdruck an einer Lƶsung für die permanenten Crashs auf den iOS Systemen arbeitet, aber es wird von Tag zu Tag schlimmer. Das Spiel ist schon seit geraumer Zeit nahezu unspielbar. Mittlerweile kauft euch da keiner mehr ab und mehr und mehr Spieler werfen das Handtuch. Für mich sieht das nach reiner Hinhaltetaktik aus um aus einem sterbenden Spiel noch so viel Geld wie mƶglich rauszuziehen bevor es komplett vor die Hunde geht. Echt schade, dass Spiel hatte wirklich Potential, aber ihr habt es erfolgreich runtergewirtschaftet. Herzlichen Glückwunsch dazu. š
I still prefer 2 clicks over half an hour active clicks š Game already takes away too much time, I don't want to give them 30 more mins š
@Scopley please put the info back in the rewards headers. these generic "daily goals claimed" or whatevs, lacks. big time.
that will be fixed tomorrow
Before I waste my time, has anyone tried this arena thing?
Does it work or buggy?
How are the match-up levels?
Also, what happens to miners in token systems when an arena match starts?
I would dock all ships before joining a team. That ensures that you get all the cargo no matter what happens, and gives you time to crew your ships. Miners aren't useful in the arena atm.
You have to be 7 levels from the host, miners are recalled, cargo lost. So like cand1e said, recall all ships before joining a team
Scrap arenas the matchmaking is so lopsided sided and fix MU waves
If I'm Ops 56 am I just going to get matched up against 60+ G6 players and smashed every arena match?
Right now, the matchups aren't balanced as the matchmaker needs time to start sorting. I'd keep trying and see how it treats you by the end.
How about scrapping all of the pointless forced PvP aspects and concentrate on sonething that was mentioned years ago, and "agreed by management/developers" would be a great addition to the game. Something that is common in other MMORPG that I have played over the years; Intra alliance trading. The ability to trade resources between alliance members thereby allowing them to level faster and recover faster from attacks and raids. I mentioned this idea to mgmt over 3 years ago, days when I was a noob player. So great that it has been followed up on and developed...(Yes sarcasm!!)...)
I think theyāre still trying to work out how many dollars it will be per trade token
Now ik not everything has to drop hundreds of items but a g4 uncommon(sorry I got mixed up) armada pull shouldn't have the stupid chance to give a single bloody directive with how expensive the draws are its almost insulting š„²
Slow mode makes replying super slow
That's not a g4 rare armada pull
Waves, MU, and the app on IPAD are all back to running like trash this past week. Canāt wait for the infinite crash glitch arena will surely unlock
Oh, and the home button position is still the stupidest thing Iāve ever seen in a game.
Still broken, should be a massive comp chest for this
You've got to be kidding me.
Regular math:
(53+59+49+52+56)/5 = 53,8
(60+64+60+66+59)/5 = 61,8
Scopely math:
(53+59+49+52+56)/5 = 65
(60+64+60+66+59)/5 = 61,8
Surprised we got 45 points
the first matchmakings can not use "Arena Ranking" because everyone is at zero points. your matchmaking is unfair, this is true, but it's just the first
How can i join Arena with my Alliance? The answer is i cant because im to high ... very thanks for nothing. For me this content is dead after 1 minute.
Bunch of ops70s and high g6 players are in the same situation....screw over their best customers doesnt sound very smart eh?
Arena Combat is an alliance feature but STFC is not an alliance game. Now someone knows this problem and someone will fix it.
you'll need to recruit someone ops49 into the alliance, if an ops 49 starts it you can join a group with members down to 42.
Arena matchmaking is kinda dumb. OPS 56 vs 62-64 only
its pretty repetitive, first time was ok, second run was still fine but after a few runs its a bit boring. can't imagine doing this all day long. waves 2.0 ?
<@&509690795536941056> I want to point out that the scheduling and duration of Arenas are bad for people with regular office hours:
- it starts at noon and lasts for 8 hours
- from noon to 6pm I'm at the office
- from 6pm to 7pm I'm getting back home
- from 7pm to 8pm I'm taking care of home stuff (cleaning, preparing diner, whatever)
- 8pm to 9pm diner
- 9pm, when I can play, arenas are over and I can't participate
Please have the arenas duration extended to 12 hours
I cannot do arena play because there's a level cap and in my alliance there isn't enough 50-64 players to play with. I have to change alliance??? Another failure.
the same problem which Incursion had the last run: maybe in USA people don't work on Monday, on Tuesday, on Wednesday or on Thursday so no one works on these days in the world
I did and I have another issue now: players in between 56 and 70 are not online and now I swapped alliances for nothing .
Slow clap for scoplay and their āsuccessful ā implementation of the event on the apec servers ā¦.
Outstanding service
SMS not counting š
SMS has now scored for last arena but no credit for the first 2 I ran
3yrs after the trade building location was removed š¤·āāļø
the matchmaking is terrible
Matchmaking is the worst...
And thatās just an example of a regular office worker let alone others. It should just run from event reset until next reset
This is just a "sit-and-watch-others-play" match... I can do that on youtube without any frustration
We had an even better one before with 1x 67 and 1x 65 instead of the 56ers
yeah suggestion would maybe be that it takes the ops of the person to start as base so both teams have the same ops range, could already improve the balance a bit
Arena is fun š just have to utilise every team member. Lag needs work as usual and the arena store has some great loot
@here
Arena Event is a funny thing, but please change Weekday and Clocktime ! Also think about the working part of the population.
If I think about it correctly, the weekend would be best, then the time would also be right!
The same with Incursion, which should only be on the weekend
COMPLETE TRASH!!!!
Serveur 178 heavy lags
Arena feels like we are still in beta test mode after the APAC beta test and the DJz beta test after that⦠gamma test? delta test?
<@&509690795536941056> keep getting stuck in warp or unable to leave base in arena's. keep getting code_0_
Tell you what, they aināt bright are they, if any part of this game has ever highlighted how broken PVP and the spend gap is, itās this new āfeatureā š
You're going to remove the scoring mechanic that gives 7500 points from the SLB mid event, so the only way to score is in 200/10/2 point intervals? š„“
Still waiting on that efficiencies comp folks...not sure what you guys are still calculating? the amount of time before we forget? @raw fiber @tidal notch
It's dragged on far too long, a decision needs to be made and the community updated
I would like to have a way to see what missions that I have accomplished so that I can search for the next ones without having to go through every single galaxy over and over again. I enjoy missions and storyline when bored and not doing anything but searching is such a pain! TIA!
Sms doesnt work correctlyš”
Funny that the Arena cruiser is shown as a Ferengie dealer
and give a terrible comp chest for it AND not remove the SLB to begin with so people are double dipping .... nice and fair as always
take the word "mona" out of the profanity filter (why is it even in there?) so we can actually discuss the monaveen
well the timing of having arena when most are at work on EU is crap
same with APAC. started at 10am to 1pm depending on country. by the time most of us got off work it was dead zone and hard to create squad and even finish SMS
well at least anyone with a job won't have to spend anything on arena related stuff, as no point seeing at were all at work, lol
Schaltet doch bitte mal euer Gehirrn ein. Kein Mensch braucht Games wo man einfach nur Kanonenfutter ist. Bringt die Spieler in ihren Level zusammen. Viel enger von den Leveln als jetzt. ich kenne viele welche dies Arena nicht mehr mitmachen. Ich gehöre jetzt auch dazu. Absoluter Müll.
Well done Scopley the game has crashed, cannot hit hostiles, canāt open chat, canāt go to another system. When do you guys actually play test and make this game stable? Utter trash
Arena is a broken event on arrival - I am in a succesful alliance with 86 players with a broad spectrum of ops... We all help each other to advance.
But with Arena we cant form a single full group because of the bracket requirements and also because of the 8 hour time slot when I am at work - literally cannot play this.
Arena is really fun and once lag is sorted out, great team event. Little risks, fun, short and gives rewards even to losers. Less fun is the matchmaking. Having as a mid-5G group mostly 6G 64-69 players to go against for 3rd time takes out the fun part again
What a horrible mechanic that Arena is. Pretty confident I will not be doing that any time soon- actually worse that mirror universe. If you have PvP primes youāll love it
Nowhere in the announcements does it say only players 40+ can participate in Arena. The only level restriction specified is starting a team. This is totally worthless.
The compensation gift for a broken SLB event that rewards event store currently is Emergency Field Rations?! Absolute scumbag move, pathetic. Oh what's that you wanted currency for FC shards for a FC that hasn't been available f2p until now? lol nope.
<@&509690795536941056> is the last announcement saying that all ships in all docks will be returned from token space? For arenas
Yes caught me off guard, had token space miners š¢
Yep all ships are recalled and any cargo is lost
Lost? You mean it just goes to your inventory, right? Otherwise a certain headquarters building in California may want to up their security.
loading and unloading arean times a total farce, 2 min repair time per ship 1 at a time a farce, this needs a rethink and a redo on how it works, nevermind the non-balanced pvp ops sizes and ship sizes to go with the ops, totally unbalanced and un-fairplay, you don't know the meanings of either words that you have a cheek to use
Ok, I understand recalling, but losing all of the cargo? What a great idea to run this at the same time as Latinum Rush.
ok great so i guess i'm not going to do this today lol
<@&509690795536941056>
For the proving grounds SMS, why do I only get points as the leader of a squad?
If the event is so short anyway, why is gaining points as a participant not an option?
Weird, for the first win I didn't get the points
<@&509690795536941056> seeeeeeeething. Get home from work to find out I have 1 hour to do areana?!?! What is your problem?!??? nice one
any feedback on when they plan to fix mirror waves?
...
and remove wtf, so we can actually share the convenient leaderboard website.
Event is over before I get home from work. Seen it's all about punching down, if you're against much higher level players it's not worth participating
what sort of opponents did you see?
our team of ops42-56 never saw ships beyond G5 rares, and all the bigger ships were just within a defeatable range when we used support ships like mantis and titan-A.
Then youāre very lucky. Simple.
<@&509690795536941056> bit of a poor choice to restrict lvl 50s to their own bracket on Pre ascension servers for the arena means for alliances like mine where we only have 3 lvl 50s 2 of which aren't interested in PVP means i cant participate in any of the events linked to the arena nor earn any rewards another great job by scopley
I didn't get to participate due to timings
@raw fiber @tidal notch
May want to consider expanding shields one more time for Florida. Tons of people still without power and many more still in shelters. We know you are criticized a lot, but we do appreciate the time and thoughtfulness you've put into the procedure you've put in place for these victims.
Had a ship in token and athoer in mirrow. Lost the lot
i see now you were talking about reports from others.
with the right ops range in your squad you can actually get consistent good matchups, and end up with very little punching down(unless people bring undersized ships for their ops)
had many opponents my ops and bigger ships, but always found ways to take them down.
any punching down was for when their high level escorts were repairing their ships.
but i agree, the timing was bad.
we only barely could set up a squad within the ops range, but that did get us the ideal range for fair matchmaking it seems.
(players ops 42-56, with leader at ops 49)
The arena did work tbf. There was a lot less bugs and poor match ups that i thought would be. Was quite fun .
Scopley why did you do the event in the hours Europeans are working ? If your not going to do it so we can join in better off removing it
Can we please stop with the endless peace shields? Full into a big raid and you pop more peace shields on us
so im ready for the next time arena events shows up all good tho i cant see vault like this š¤·āāļø
That does stink but we do have several members of the community that are still without power and can't log in to defend themselves.
That was terrible timing for an event scopely, and it didn't score right, i have put a ticket in but i have little hope support will fix it. Its really disappointing and doesn't make me want to do it again
I didn't have time to connect to stfc because I have a job, so I'm not allowed to go to the arena?
Hi i must say Arena is fun with the PVP and PVE combo. Best new stuff this year. I just would give Kills more Points and that you can form Groups outside of your Alliance.
Arena appears to punish people who are much higher level than the rest of the alliance. Is that accurate?
I agree. My alliance is mostly sub 50s I am 62 and I only have 4 who are level 55 or above, so I don't get to do the arena stuff unless I bail on my alliance. That isn't right
we need to be able to join ones on our server with other alliances. Me and one team member miss out no matter who starts it
Arena is becoming a joke. If my group has a max level of 48 how and why and I be paid with an ops level 55
A warning before joining Arena that it will pull ALL ships, including ones in currently pending Armada, AND miners in token space, regardless if you have any intent to use them, would be appreciated. Had several alliance members fail armada, lose out on miners with lots of capacity left mining in token space, not knowing Arena would break those
Absolute catastrophe, so much for beta testing.
Arena event pairing is not fair, complete waste
I canāt even get a group in my ops range since I am the highest ops level in my allianceā¦.
Entered arena in a 41 - 48 range .... when we got tgere,we were paired against lvl 55's. I'm no mathematician but something's wrong here.
Can you expand a little on that....
Yup. Ops banding is something we're passing on.
Shouldn't $copely have considered that already before releasing it?
Not letting 30-39's play is a joke.
WHY ARE WE FIGHTING LVL 64 ON LVL 50 playerrs ????
Another absolute fail ..... exactly what I expected it to be. Passing it on does nothing, we all know that.
Stfc turning into a joke of a game... incompleet and broken content keeps being added month after month.
Field training and Arena are just the lastest jokes from scopely.
Pls finish content before throwing it to the community and tried to cash on it. Selling content that actually works has so much more value... Now we are getting events on content that isnt even working. What is getting smoked there, i need that same stuff!
Because it's a typical $copely release like any and every other that we've had- only half thought through and badly done.
Completely no sense , 5 lvl 50 players playing agaisnt lvl 64 players in arena. This is unaceptable and unfair !!!!
Been waiting 20 minutes to even get into an arenaā¦yeah, this isnāt working
Need it to be longer as well.. starting at 10am and finishing at 7pm uk time, pretty much rules me out of taking part due to being at work.
And to add it pulls ALL ships from what ever else they are doing.. screwing up amardas, loading up for mining Monday etc.
So either run arena for everyone, and stop mining Mondays.. or move the day of the event to a WEEKEND when more players can take part š¤·āāļø
Sad, but trueā¦š
Arena is possibly the worst new feature ever to come to this game.
The arena power spread is too large. Nobody in the game can take on level 60+ unless youāre in g6. And Iām in an arena now as the strongest player at level 58 and there are two g6 players in it. We all stopped trying bc it was pointless and boring
In my first arena my best ship got stuck in warp leaving me with one ship to fight the whole thing, and we were paired with a ridiculouosly overpowered squad.
<@&509690795536941056> Arena can be a fun feature but definitely needs some balancing. It's waaay too time consuming as well, so strongly suggest you do something about another ultra time consuming feature a lot of players are skipping: Waves. These can take up to 20 minutes each, there's absolutely no way to keep up with it unless you're unemployed or retired. PLEASE shorten them somehow, or auto complete once you've cleared them a certain number of times.
Can we allow Cloaking during the Arena, please
I did a handful of the arena matches and actually think this is a pretty fun new feature. it's really nice that you don't need too many specific crews. there will obviously be a disparity between spenders on pvp research/FTs vs people who don't, but that's the nature of the game. it should work itself out as people move through the brackets or matchmaking gets tuned.
the lag is the worst part right now. i can't really get my head wrapped around how there is severe lag on an instanced server unless engagement was severely underestimated, it's hosted on the opposite side of the world, or something fundamentally wrong with the game coding. hope you can figure this out quickly before people get too sick of it.
matchmaking seems a bit misaligned right now. out of the 5 matches, i had 2 that i would consider comparable, 1 where we were the stronger team, and 2 where we were the weaker team (highest ops 59 vs 65 in one of those - and we won). the algorithm probably needs some optimization to avoid these issues. a team of g5 players should not be going up against 63+. same goes for g4 players vs g5. some finer optimization within the grades would be good too.
i also will only do this on PC. mobile is likely rough.
overall, i really like this feature. it needs some smoothing of the edges. good job.
A lot of the arena power matching issue is a result of Scopelyās ridiculous power escalation with each level. It was good for selling ships to whales, but for any pvp purpose, the power scaling is a disaster.
The feature would also be good, but the wrong developer is behind it
I like waves. Iām okay with incursions. Arena sucks.
I canāt seem to get into a match. With the time limitations I probably wonāt get to experience an arena, which might be a good thing given the reaction Iām seeing.
That is the worst trio of officers i have ever seen in a Treasury.
This new Arena feature may be the worst thing Scopley ever released - and thatās saying something
Besides matchmaking being abysmal, the fact that it takes all of your ships, leaving you unable to mine or do anything else is just stupid.
How is this fair ???
Arena match making should not be based on ops but based on average power level. Just put in to an arena match with ops average within 2.5 but power level was 40-50 mil power more. Average ops for one side was 45 the other was 48. However one side had a 56 and power was heavily skewed because of the heavier player.
That's an interesting idea...
Additionally, players should not be punished if they can't be online during a short window each week for this.
First thoughts:
#1) As expected, playing against a ship class above your team's bet is not fun. One g6 player wrecks a team of g5, and I'm sure the same is true for one g5 player wrecking a team of g4's. Its day 1, but there needs to be considerations made for best ships available when matchmaking.
#2) Full teams of equal ops'd players get punished badly. A team of ops 56/56/57/57/58 end up vs. a team of ops 53/54/55/62/62. The 62's wreck everything and its not fun. The clear strategy is to have 2 of the bottom and 2 of the top of the band.
#3) The actual arena is reasonably fun. Room for lots of strategy. Easily the best pvp environment when compared to territory or incursions.
#4) The 8-hour only window is bizarre. Lots of players won't be able to participate from my alliance. I'm sure its the same for others as well. Really no reason for it to not be a 24-hour window. Also, Monday is a terrible choice for a day to run these. Sunday's would make much more sense.
#5) Emblems earned is nowhere near enough, especially for losing. Half your player base will be losing in any given match, and struggling through a bad matchup for 10 minutes to earn 200 emblems is a reason to stop doing them. Winning needs to get more, and losing needs to get a lot more. Nobody is going to grind arenas for 8 hours just to be able to get a few officer shards from the store.
There is definitely potenial here. Matchmaking is a mess (as expected) and there are solutions, but this isn't going to 'shake itself out' without serious intervention from Scopely. Hoping to see improvements soon.
can you bring up the fact that the leader can start the matchmaker and 'lock' players into participation without any way to stop or leave team (if not the leader)
Sometimes I have those moments where the brain works. Using an average ops to form groups is fine but matchmaking should be based on power - there is a huge descrepancy from some ops to others. It should not be such an advantage to those that pull in one "power" player.
Why does the arena require special repair speedups that, even if I have them, seem difficult to apply? It's a time-limited PvP event, and I end up having ships stuck in a repair queue for 2 minutes at a time. Just let us use normal speedups.
I wound up using all my repair tokens in my first arena because my best ship got stuck in warp and I was left only able to use one ship at a time.
arena timing is ass... like im not even able to try it, cuz im at work xD ... what a trash update
I'd 1v5 just to get the loss points and actually get to play..... Going up rank isnt gonna matter anyways if you can never get in due to the restrictions and trying to get 5 people
Do arena events on the weekends so more people can participate. Also, obvious fail doing this on mining Monday when you know it's gonna yank miners out of token. The amount of thought that gets put into planning this content seems to be very low.
Would be fun except for the garbage matchmaking. Throwing 60s at a group thats highest member is 55. totally balanced
<@&509690795536941056> I can't really comment on arenas I never had chance to do them as I was working but will say 8hrs isn't long enough, I know you'll never be able to please everyone but people can be working at any point in a 24hr period, it would probably be better to run it as a 24hr event and stagger the regions going forward that way it gives everyone a decent chance of engaging
so scopely thought it was a smart idea to run Arena when mining Monday was going on, and it AUTOMATICLLY Recalled the miners in TOKEN at he end of the match
How is matching a team with 2 ops 59 against a team with 1 ops 57 fair? Arena could be fun if the matches were fair @tidal notch
Just 1 question really, why did the European arena start mid morning on a Monday, when a lot of people who play this game are at work. Why not have it at event reset (5pm uk time) or even 3pm uk time. This would also benefit Most of Europe
Thanks for the feedback! Will pass on!
majority of the game is for old retired rich people
Ggg
we had a 55,55,55,56 and a 60 matched up with a - 55.55.56,60,64 -that is insane having a team with OPs 64 3 bill ship in there with a bunch of 400 mill ships to kill - our server is not even OPs 61+ unlocked
Balance needs to be tightened up a ton. Even within the Same Tier the disparity between ships can be immense. Having Level 60 ships fighting a team that's highest level is 55 is not proper balance and there is no chance the team with the 55 is going to win against the 60. In the end the team gets camped at their warp in spots and have to sit there unable to do anything. Punching up is not something this game allows well so teams should be balaned around same level or lower within like 2-3 not going up 5-6 levels and becoming useless
Simplest way might be keep it in grades, whatever the highest grade is in the team you're put in that pool of players, only downside would be bigger players in smaller allies may suffer
Scopely, needs to realize:
people that spend money will spend money. People that canāt/donāt wonāt.
They keep trying to think up ways to get people to spend, here is a tip:
- Significantly cheaper prices
- Fix your glitches
- Have significantly better customer service.
Who wants to spend money on a game that never fixes anything or, if they do try and fix something, it just break something else AND who treats their players like something nasty that you find on the bottom of your shoe. š¤·š»āāļø
Scopely " lets make more money " - Advisors " ok but how we already started too many broken mechanics " Scopely, Lets just make a even MORE Broken Mechanic and call it ARENA! " and make the entire universe the Alpha Testers and just comp them $1 items when they buy $100 in stuff
Are you guys intentionally trying to make this game so boring for the sub level 40 players that they quit. Why donāt you just fold the game. Or move all the whales to one server and shut down the rest. Nothing new has been done for the low players in ages. If you want us all at level 40 give us the ships and reassures to do it free
They have stated that at this point in the game below 40 content will not be worked on and they are actually doing numerous things to make it easier to level up at the lower ops, kinda makes me feel like the guy saying when we had to get up we did it uphill in the snow both ways, but the content is definately there now to make it way eaiser to get to 40. Too many people feel like they have to 100% everything before going there tho which is a different issue. People that dont wanna ops up will instead get different things and no new content it isnt that surprising they cant keep designing ships that go from ops 30 to ops 70
But they could easily make the arena available to all levels. And they could make the new ships viewable or even allow us to collect Bps for them even if we canāt build them till a certain shipyard level. And if they really wanted up to progress they wouldnāt level lock EVERY NEW SHIP. If a person can acquire the needed parts to build it and promote it it should be allowed.
Good work with Arena, now can we apply these same ops level ranges for all PvP? Shows you clearly understand that letting ops 61 PVP ops 40 is ridiculous, and you're capable of setting more reasonable level ranges... But we all know you won't.
but that's like saying let me get the higher ships without getting the rep required to unlock them. Ships are level locked past 40 2, it's not like a 40 can build g6 ships. They cant get the arena to work right with only 30 levels and you want them to add more in? The reason for ditching the ships for below 40's isnt spite, its cause it gets super hard to make a ship that is kinda balanced for 30 levels let alone 40. the old ships stop at lvl 60 for progression, since they've started doing it now they go up past that. the range is why they are dropping the lower support, not cause they hate the players below but because they cant get simple things right and adding in more levels makes it even more messed up
putting the arenas on the same day as the latinum rush event forces players to choose between competing for their own long-term advancement and their alliance's short-term advancement; while I can see this being an "interesting" tradeoff to thrust upon players, I also see it as being anti-alliance and thus counterproductive to the motivations of collaboration in this game, and it would be better if arena times did not overlap with latinum rush (or any other event that requires complete optimization of ship time usage for rankings (the fatu-krey hunting event also comes to mind)
because of this, I would suggest that either the latinum rush event time be moved or, since that slot is longer-established, that the arena time slot be moved, and preferably so that it also does not overlap with fatu-krey hunting events and similar
Then the game isnāt going to survive. The whales need the krill and the krill are quitting from boredom and no new players are joining.
this Arena is a train wreck
I think the Arena is running well. It's been relatively lagless and enjoyable.
You should not be able to be matchmade with a higher OPs player than exists in your own squad. That's just poor design.
<@&509690795536941056> Great job on screwing up another great idea - poor execution and design.. so do you gets paid by the number of poorly designed events?
So you only need to be ops40 with R&D 40 to do this research but then again, you need a T13 Protector. Why have a R&D minimum of 40 at all then? It would be better of it's R&D 60 since you need to be in G6 to be T13
Are you asking me if I get paid by the number of events that are run because that's totally not how it works.
Well do to the fact that for the last 4 years every event you guys create total tanked from the get go and non-of you guys even under stand players wise how this game is hosed power level āplus everyone know non-of you play this game, except on your fantasy serverā, so either A you guys get for for being failures at your job, or B you guys got to be unionized āpretty much the same as Aāā¦
No cloaking in arenas???
Not at the moment.
The arena group brackets need to be either server wide or with alliances you are allied with so there is a larger pool of available players.
Union=failure? What the hell does that mean?
I'm also thinking that most people can't see if their arena mates are online??? Yes of course there is discord but that shouldn't be a game feature. How do they know when to start it???
Event over but still shows this
Yet another month I will not pay to support bad design or implementation. I guess scopley doesn't want my money. Too bad.
Just like what it means š¤·āāļø you just like 1 + 1 =2
I'm by no means a fan of many of the things Scopely has done lately, but I can't help but disagree with you here. Have you seriously ever played a game where you don't have to advance/level up to open up more content? That's standard game design. It's incentive to advance to what's next. You simplyshouldnt have access to everything without earning it. However, I will grant you that the problem here is that they make advancing way too slow/difficult/expensive, whereas other games give you a reasonable progression track, so earnings it here is unreasonable
A good solution would be a set of global buffs and debuffs to allow the expansion of the brackets by normalizing power somewhat. As the highest ops level person in my alliance, I have not be able to participate at all in this new feature since the ops differential only allows me to join groups with 4 other starters in my alliance...Trying to co-ordinate that in an alliance of 88 in 8 hours with people that have different schedules is basically impossible
this is my arena screen...why does it say i must be ops 40 to join??
Because the person that started it is 47
Because below ops 40 got the shaft again.
we were told that 40+ are the only ones who can start, but joining had no level requirement. ANYONE could join.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=538vKNEtVrg
- "engagement is open to everyone"
but, when i read this https://scopely.helpshift.com/hc/en/19-star-trek-fleet-command/faq/8115-the-arena/ there's a single line telling us we must be 7ops levels from the host (an utterly ridiculous requirement). that detail was conveniently left out of the video.
so not open to everyone - it's open to everyone within 7ops levels of the host.
You would need a 42 or lower to start to join as a 35
59 vs 65. hissssss
It's level locked, no one under 40 can join, which is unfortunate for those of us who were looking forward to this event
I see a daily syndicate exchange thing here but how you supposed to get the stuff tip spend for it? If itās another pay to get thing thatās so unfair to free to play players
They lied.
thanks for the math lesson. much appreciated. [pulls out notebook, sits at student's desk]
As I already said, you canāt join if the starter is more than 7 levels higher than youā¦Have a 40-42 start it and see if you can join. If not then ya they lied, but you seem to just not be understanding the mechanics currently.
Donāt know on that onicron007. Let me guess it doesnāt even do match making fairly like itās supposed too
Not quite, even if I level 40 starts it, and I've tested it (I'm level 35) anyone below 40 cannot join regardless of what level the person starting it is, so yeah the 7 level thing only applies to levels 40 and above
Then they lied, he wasnāt really testing it though
I like this idea. As it is, the pvp mechanics of this game are awful, especially in arena. The difference between you and a player only 2 lvls above you are often insurmountable. It makes it demoralizing and un-fun. Why do i want to play arena knowing that if even 1 player is 2 ops lvls higher than anyone else in my squad we're very likely to get annihilated?... not to mention pay to win primes.
They donāt necessarily have to make NEW content for the below ops 40; just give them events that they can do. For example, the whole temporal (think it was temporal) artifacts, they would have an SLB for that but nothing for below ops 40 when they could have EASILY run a regular artifacts SLB for them. Here they are running the special coin store and they have half the opportunities for lower ops levels to get coins that they do at upper ops levels. You want to get people to up to speed faster, THAT is not how to do it. Scopely always would say this is a marathon, not a sprint but now they want to make the first stages of the game a sprint and donāt really do an adequate job of it. Sure I have Ghrush shards all collected faster the second time around but, with the first go round, I actually had him promoted as I gathered the shards. Now I have all the shards but the independent credits to promote him with are at the same pace as always š
Yeah I don't get why they don't have an artifact event for below 40 when the temporal runs. The other events that give premium MU stuff usually gives syndicate for below 40 so isn't much of a reason not to runna reg art slb or similar. Maybe they also need to do epic ship bp events to help get the epic ship to ascend
Ok this says to get epic fc credits you get from both refinery of solo borg armadas and the store. Yet in both refinery I havenāt found any epic fc credits anywhere, so how in the heck am I supposed to get epic fc credits to upgrade my fc officers to the next promotion?
I believe it's ops based. Level up a bit, and it'll show up as an option to refine, just like the rare stuff
been in a queue with 4 people for 45 min. this is ridiculous....
If thatās the case what freaken ops level is needed Iām already 48th. Made a mistake in what my ops lvl is. Forgot Iāve beeen 48th for a few months . lol lol I think because Iāve been working on upgrading a couple things for so long to get them to 47 as Iām still working on upgrading station fully to 48th lol . Much of the upgrades give me a headache
At least you got 4 people in your ops bracket...
I'm only ops 48, and that's certainly not it. Lol. Ops 50 maybe?
Ok so far Iām not caring for this event thing. Either you spend forever in one waiting for the member who started to start the thing or you wait forever for people to join the the thing. So far itās a complete and utter failure in my opinion and waist of time , just to see if Iām going to like it or not.
The only way I can participate is to change alliance that I've been with for 5 years. "Sorry you spent more, sit this one out"
Of course they probably put it so high to force people to buy the stupid stuff like stupid sheep to the slaughter. No offense to anyone itās just a phrase not an insult or attack on anyone.
The arena addition is a major fail. The match making is total garbage and doesn't even come close when matching opponents. What ever they are using to calculate opponents really falls short of providing close competition. Another underwhelming addition I am rating this 0 out of 10. They really need to get away from adding, adding, adding and just fix the game as it is.
Finally got into an arena. Itās like a cross between a wave, unbalanced pvp, and lots of waiting. It was not fun and I donāt plan on doing more of them
I agree this arena thing seems to be a major failure, no one seems to be really doing it . Been waiting for a few hrs for people to join and thatās after waiting 2 hrs in one that had a full crew and nothing happened for it seems only one who can start it is the one who first chose to run it. Then it seems set up for only those who want PvP and evidently from reading that doesnāt even match make properly either.
The matchmaking is indeed trash
Many of us canāt even do it weāre ops locked out.
Reply I kinda figured it was since their whole combat system which allows those with ships in 100ks to attack those barely in their 20ās. Their whole combat system allows for bullying and even promotes it and they claim fair play.
I am adm of my alliance. I am locked up effectively being punished for getting to level 70. Way to go Scopely. Punish success.
The number of crashes is stupid too, itās early waves all over again
I'm 58 and highest ops level in my alliance and I am in the same position
#boycottArena
You only have to look at STFC.wtf to see what an absolute š©show this arena event has been. All the EU servers Iāve checked have had participation rates below 10% I personally didnāt even get a chance to play as by the time I was home from work the event had stopped. The way your running it needs a rework my suggestions
Just have it as solo queue so you get matched with other similar level players with weighted matching so you match preferentially match with players in your alliance > instance > region
If you canāt run three regions concurrently run each region for 24 hrs on separate days on a rotation so each region gets equal access to the better days I.e. weekends.
Itās never going to a great experience because itās a pay to win game in which there is no real effort put into balancing, but it should be better than this and very occasionally you could have some really enjoyable match ups.
A Surrender button is needed for Arena as well. Bad enough Matchmaking is awful. You get a lopsided team that decides to drag it out for 10 minutes not doing amradas and just killing hostiles and anyship you send in. Waste of time to make people sit there so a group can be dicks and farm 1 point at a time
The matching even within alliance is not workable. Needs to be wider range of Ops or allow to join outside of alliance.
I got in a few and was so fun. Now we canāt play anymore bc not enough players near my ops to make a squad. Let us play! This is actually a really fun feature- probably the best in my 5 years playing this game
When you get to play it you will probably change your mind
I have to ask, anyone else hate the arena as much as I do? I was looking forward to it but it is a horrible disappointment.
Tried it once, I hate it. Matchmaking sucks. Pvp is unbalanced. The whole damn thing is just chaos. I hate it
Really, Scopely?
Same
i think the matching is not gonna be super accurate at first. Since its new a lot of people wont have arena rating yet. Most of your team is higher rank then their team is. After a few weeks of this it will probably be better as the more powerful players ratings go up to match their power better.
arena seems at the same level as starbase attack. was a great idea but turns out be DOA
There's no amount of rating that will let a bunch of 40 and 41s win against 48s
I dont think you understand what i was trying to say. Matchmaking is supposed to be tied to both ops AND arena rating/ranking. Since they were lower arena rating, that is the most likely reason you got matched with them. Over time as people do more arena, the rating/ranking system will be more accurate to peoples power levels. They still could have designed it better imo.
regardless of ranking the the whole pvp is fundamentally flawed. a G5 will win vs a G4 and a G6 vs a G5. having a range of 14 ops levels to compete is simply not fair. But if you reduce it than you dont have enough players within an alliance to form a team of 5......scrap arena
Create bands based on highest ops, not starter, and don't let them cross tiers. If the highest in your group is a 57, then you shouldn't get 60s.
Yeah that would be good. Allowing g5/6 ships to fight against people who dont have them is not good design, especially since some people cant even spend to get g5/6 ships depending on server. And since 1 or 2 players can carry a team by wiping out the other teams ships, max ops is probably better than average for matchmaking.
Average isn't what they are using. We had a match with their average 4 Ops above ours. As well as our highest a 66 and they had a 70.
Arena is the worst new feature this year. I mean what were they thinking?
What was the difference on arena ranks? They use both average arena ranking and average ops, at least according to what they said. At first my alliance was getting similar avg ops, but then we got to higher ranks and were getting matched with much higher avg ops who were lower arena ranking.
Edit: Some ops ranges may have less players in the matchmaking pool, making accurate matches harder.
i dont know, im still bronze rank 4 (starting rank) and get matched vs much higher ops....single higher player can wipe out whole group
What the heck the point of arena, you really think I'm going to spend money on arena repairs to let someone 7 levels higher destroy my ships?
I actually think it's great. There's plenty of issues, but I'd much rather log in and do this for an hour than click on refineries or grind hostiles.
@last tide i didn't catch the ranks, but i don't feel that's not a good metric to use for this game. Too much can hinge on straight up account power.
@manic lynx Repairs are free though...
As is usual, they did the barest minimum of thinking possible for a new feature and it's turned out horrible for all but whales. Except this time you get the added fun that weirdos who have been camping at ops 40 for a year get to stomp all over fresh 40s. Because having a 16mil Enterprise at ops 40 is totally reasonable through normal gameplay.
Yeah i feel like the arena rating in matchmaking wasnt a great idea, especially at first. Over time it will be better, but at first it will cause issues. I think max ops and avg acct power would be better matchmaking criteria in general though. Ranking/rating systems are good in games where there is lots of room for skill expression. There isnt really skill expression in this game.
we had 53/51 @ 150m/100m (2 biggest) up against 55/55 @ 400m/387m ... matchmaking is a joke
scopely has a solutio for that $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Leave it to scopley to yet again come up with yet another game mechanic that will ultimately drive yet more people away from the game. As they can't compete verse pay-to-win players who've spent countless $$$ on all the primes & maxing the pvp forbidden techs. Coupled w/ the abhorrent match making that has multiple ops 66+ on 1 side verse the other side w/ the highest ops 61 in the matchLeave it to scopley to yet again come up with yet another game mechanic that will ultimately drive yet more people away from the game.

Yea if you want to wait 2 min. But when you're biggest is a 5star uncommon and it gets killed as soon as you enter the system by a 5 star epic. You just get to sit there and watch the system as you wait 2 min for your ship to repair. (Noted I did forget speedup in the og rant)
Is there a scopely person on this?
$1 per repair speedup is a great price /s
I'm not spending a dime on speedups. I just figured out how to rotate ships for efficiency. Also, you can't expect to win every fight. If you are average it's 50/50. If you are getting less than that, you're a below average player or alliance. That's okay, it happens. Not everything is Scopely's fault.
Love the feature. Matchmaking sucked, both ways, but hopefully itāll get better and fun either way. Just maybe donāt limit it to 8 hours?
And please gift us a few insta-repairs every run. Just a few for when we really need them, they are super expensive in the faction store.
The idea is ok, execution sucks. I think biggest mistake is not looking at how many actually do PvP . Not many free to play do a lot of PvP because PvP is more of a wallet vs wallet or credit card vs credit card type of event and is never fairly matched. I might be lvl 48 but that doesnāt mean I have the capability to go against some 4 or more lvls above me me . Not everyone has the best crew or ships for PvP or focuses on PvP stuff. There are many factors that should be taken into account when trying to do PvP matching. Placing all players in certain brackets based on ops is messed up not all should be in those brackets. Fair play means taking and pairing against people that has more in common then just ops lvl. Faction lvl should be looked at as well as ships owned tech lvl officers owned as well as ones ops. Yet clearly you through people in brackets were lvl 60ās can hit over 20 lvls below them were they just brutally destroy most with one shot. Not a fair combat system at all and your going through people in to that situation in arena. The current arena and combat system pairing need an over haul to promote fair play not bullying. Itās part of why most free to play donāt really care about PvP events if they do them they just send knowing that lvl 56 and above will destroy them every time for easy points . Not all players believe in pay to win , I know I donāt for only one winning there is scopley for getting people to spend money at outrageous pricing. All while playing a severally broken game that if in space you would be suffocating to death from all the holes in the ship.
Games I enjoy PvP , racing , fighting , maybe football and baseball if I was into them but I just canāt get into those for I get disoriented by the sudden switch in screen view. But racing I enjoy though not very good at it. Fighting games like mortal combat and injustice I enjoy playing against family and friends. Neverwinter I would occasionally do the PvP but it was my choice and took place only in certain areas dedicated to PvP . So yes PvP can be fun at certain times and places when done right when not it just ruins it for those that donāt really get into it. Some live for it for they like getting easy wins
Are there any plans on fixing all the bugs the recent updates have introduced? Stuff like having to press the gift icon twice, no longer knowing what events I'm getting rewards for, the notification badges gone from the alliance window? I'm assuming no considering the countless bugs that existed before. But hey, at least we can claim all dailies now
the daily goals should be fixed with update in a few hours
mu waves should also be fixed with the update in a few hours
When is this going to be fixed, its been a week!
And I'm sure absolutely nothing will go wrong
Itās a really good thing I canāt open my vault since this stupid arena thing is still showing covering up the vault symbol . Maybe next arena bit might go down better then this one though I really doubt it since I think there is only a 10% of players on my server or any other that actually care about PvP
@raw fiber when designing the comp chest for that please keep the 7500 syndicate XP per day that we loose in mind as compensation
#ā-official-announcements message
Its a massive loss
Thx
LLAP
Actually 1400 emergency field ration / day would compensate that. But that alone.
If scopely wants to Arena's to be a success,make a PvE version, where you fight the mirror image of yourself and your team mate's,this would give an enjoyable game style to play with your team mate's if you're not in to PvP that is only a part of the players are Fawn for it , this way you would have bought options there for Arena's for all players
My personal opinion regarding arena:
- the game mode was fun to me, even though I am a nearly PvE only player with bad / lack of PvP crews and very low tiered ships for my OPS level
- I was surprised how good the matchmaking was (considering that at introduction there is no skill based match making possible and the match making process was extremely quick, what I liked)
- sometimes it was difficult to form a group, if the wrong player (OPS level) initiated a group. It would be better, if the 15 level OPS range is variable and adjusts based on players who join the group (max. OPS to join is lowest OPS in group + 14, min. OPS to join is highest OPS player in group - 14)
- reward ratio for winning (1000) and losing (400) is good
- losing Terran store accessibility when being ranked down does not feel great, once unlocked it should remain unlocked
- arena event (SMS) should rather reward participation than winning, because match making can be unfair several times in a row and then it is difficult to complete the SMS, it should rather be like 3 wins or max. 6 loses to complete the SMS (6 loses = just about 2 hours of ACTIVE playtime incl. time for match making process)
- arena times are horrible! Fix this! There is no way people who work and have children can participate at any arena fight in German time zone! Make it a 24 hour time span - everyone has a different real life with different times to play - you should not define at what time of day your customers have to play!
how do i get to open the Vault? š¤¦āāļø
Go to your treasury building, big green button at the top of it.
just out of luck i guess š¤·āāļø
they said the arena button will fall off in 24 hours
was the time of play 8 hours and time of start and ending time based on most $$$ players are on at those times
doubtful, quite a few people were unable to find matches
at least 12 hours guys . was my smart mouth sorry not enough 50s in my alliance for me to get fair play in arena
hwy how do i log out to swtch accounts?
Profile -> Settings -> General -> Switch accounts
I don't know if this reaches support or not, but the new arena is completely unbalanced. We had a group of 40s 2 49s 2 44s and a 41 go up against a group of 53-54s and 51s. It was a slaughterfest. We didn't stand a chance
@raw fiber @tidal notch I took the time to write some feedback after arena launch for improvements.
Overall, the experience was fun and engaging and I look forward to what this new feature has to offer once it is refined from the collective community. Here are some bits for your consideration.
-
IMO the day absolutely has to change. Monday is one of the busiest work days for everyone in the U.S. Between work and family, I was only able to have 7 matches. There would be much more engagement, especially over an 8 hour windows, if the day was changed to Satueday or Sunday. Secondly on this point, it's Mining Monday and players are generally in token space getting much needed resources, so the auto recall is not helpful at all.
-
Server level caps HAVE to be enforced. It was perhaps the single biggest flaw of the experience. For example, server 102 is not a level 70 server. There is no reason why, just because a couple of levels 60s are on your squad, that you should be encountering ops 65 with much more powerful ships that all the research in the world can't help with. This actually made our level 60s feels dejected and disuaded them from wanting to further the experience.
Thank you for listening to the feedback and I have no doubts that this will be.as big of a success as waves have come to be once it is refined.
@tidal notch @raw fiber @royal solar Some feedback on Arena's
To be honest it wasn't a good experience, as others have said the timing of the event was terrible. Was only able to do four matches because we couldn't get enough people online at the same time due to the work day in the US.
The matching process wasn't good either, our highest player on one match was 53 and the other team had three level 57's, the difference in power at those levels is massive and we barely survived more than a few seconds.
The 2 minute repair when you are out of tokens is crazy 1/5 of the arena time is spent on repairing a single ship and if as I said above you are wiped out in seconds you basically don't have time to do anything as even with all docks you lose your 8 ships in the first couple of minutes then have to wait 2 minutes before you can send another ship.
Would of liked to have gotten one match. Poorly planned content.
Can we remove the arena button so I can see the treasury one please
<@&509690795536941056> To add more to the "poor schedule" pile for the Arena feedback, here's a typical response I got when asking our players if they enjoyed the Arena:
<@&509690795536941056> Looks like todayās fix didnāt fix the issue with Mirror wave. (And yes, Iām running game version: 1.000.39243)
Today's fix wasn't meant to fix it, it was just a backend update. The mu wave fix is on the 17th now, it got pushed back.
First, I HATE the arena. PVP has no balance in this game, it's just get eaten by the guy 2 lvls above you because the power disparity between levels is ridiculous.
That being said, I know not everyone agrees with me, and for thos people I'd agree the arena schedule was absolutely awful. Why can't it just always be available like waves are?
Just wanna reiterate, arenas are freaking amazing. But please make it 24 hours. Also, maybe the ops ranges need changed, but I get that may introduce difficulties and for me personally it was mostly good.
Lastly, a small gift of instant repair every run (like we got this time) would be very good. They are very expensive and would let us use a few when really needed.
The guy complain he only got 7 match .... I wasn't able to get into ONE and took the day off since it was super hyped .
Waste of time I'd say.
PvP is not really working in this game and never will.
In arena it's at least a specific space and you don't have to take part.
The mechanic is still the same. If you have bought all the primes and leveled your ships/officers with money, you always win. If you don't, you always lose. That's no fun ther, no skills needed, just a credit card.
you should know to STAY FAR AWAY when scopely hypes something up. It is a dead giveaway that 1: it is an attempt to wring money out of players or 2: it will be a bug ridden debacle.
How do you push a game update and still donāt address the MU wave visual bug? That should be top priority!
that update was pushed back to the 17th
People may be shocked to find out that mining nodes are available 24/7/365 and not just on Mondays.
Arena was a bad experience for basically all players not ops 63+. So its basically the same as every other pvp-ish event they have came out with that is only designed for the top 5% of players. Until Scopley makes pvp more engaging and competitive at all ops, pvp events will always flop. You have to fix the core issues first and then build on the foundation. You can't have no foundation and try to build a hundred level skyscraper on it
Wrong. In fact, the worst experience was for those over 63. They couldnāt get in arenas started by ops 56 players. I saw many whales who didnāt participate.
<@&509690795536941056> When will the Mirror waves be fixed? It has been a week now and we are hitting the directive ceiling...
Wrong. I was in plenty of arenas with ops 63+ players. Did you try arenas? Because it was all higher ops players saw in theirs. Just look in the event feedback at all the pictures with people complaining and bad balance showing them getting crushed by higher ops. The data is there. You're just ignoring it.
Yes, I tried them. 37th global rank š
I faced groups of all g6 and groups of all g4. But g6 (especially upper g6) were the ones that had a harder time getting in a squad.
Honestly with how bad the the system was abused....(matches seem to go off the starters range and people figured that out) scopley needs to not run them and rebalance thier match parameters before doing them again....which is just wishful thinking. This is just another way to reawaken hyper competitive players into spending money
You are making a very sweeping statement, that seems to based on comments from a feedback channel. Feedback channels are generally full of complaints, because if you feel hard done by in someways you are more likely to complain.
Based on my own experience, that is one from a mixed lvl active alliance.
-
Match ups were on the most balanced, we had a few that swung dramatically either way. But that was to be expected.
-
Overall the players that took part enjoyed it, the arena is about much more than PVP.
I agree with the timing being poor. As a lot of people could not take part, hopefully that will be addressed in future runs.
The whole event ran better than I expected, so I was pleasantly surprised.
@tidal notch look at me being positive againš±
How long has Ghrush been broken? Ghrush as captain should increase protected cargo by 100%. When actually only increases protected cargo by 15.36%. Survey ship without Ghrush protected cargo is 120k with Ghrush increased only to 138k a whopping 15% which is not even close 100%
Itās 100% on base. Not what your ship is now.
<@&509690795536941056> can someone finally fix the mu wave
fix is slotted for the 17th
We supposed to be mind readers. You said today
"it got pushed back"
Then perhaps comp of a wave battle pass for those that have been heavily doing waves would be appropriate
That's what we did, but not intentionally. At 55, I'm the second highest player in my alliance, and our g6 couldn't participate. But when an ops 48 player started one, we got 3 ops 41 players in there to lower the power average against me, and I would carry them to victory while they did madas. It did not seem fair at all, even if the other side had ops 56 and 57 players.
i think this event store is great for players in the late 30s and 40s, but as a mid 50, iām having trouble finding something worth working towards. Am i the only one?
Officers, Officers oh and Officers.
If you unlock it in the recruit tab the unlocked treasury comes to the front and you can collect it.
ships are getting stuck in warp again
@raw fiber@tidal notch what's the logic of putting ops 55-59 players in same bracket with ops 60 in the Xindi Scraps SLB? How can we compete with someone with a G5 Epic ship that can get 1 mill points in SLB just by killing 4 lv 61 xindis?
I'm level 58 and had loads of fun, especially when the matches were balanced and both sides had a chance at winning. Things that totally made matches unbalanced:
- when one team had one (or more) totally higher ops player(s): for example I was in a match were the other team had one G6 player while we had none, zero chances of winning despite our best efforts, the G6 player was just intercepting all our ships.
- when one team had one (or more) player(s) with PvP forbidden techs while the other had none
If those 2 things can be taken in account when doing the matchmaking (and not just average level) then we'd be in a good spot.
Any news on changing the running time of areanafor Europe so we can actually play it
Did you event play it? I did...alot. We lost to teams we should have beat (Meaning we had the top three most powerful ships in the arena) and we beat teams that had much much larger ships. With a bit of strategy and a good alliance...a win can be had even against larger opponents. Your strategy and or alliance maybe the problem.
MU waves are still broken...
Those were one of the few new additions I actually enjoyed - and you are leaving them broken.
Fix for them is hopefully being run out on the 17th
is that 17th in the morning? as in before this first wave defense battle pass event ends?
I'm sure everyone here has experienced someone that finds this game and decides its the place to spew hate and racist comments. We have on a couple of occasions now. To Scopley: There is a line that should never be allowed to be crossed. When you attack other players with racial or religious comments and just plain hate. A 24 hour chat ban won't do. I recommend you rethink what that line should be and boot the few hwo choose to cross it.

Can we get more than one guy working on the mirror for wave fix? I know he is usually the one in charge of sending out the Christmas cards to the VIPs. But clearly he has too much on his plate this year!
How about an official communication that itās broke. And you have more than one office intern working on it?
@tidal notch the arena squad shouldnāt be tied to Allaince because my alliance only has 4 people over ops 57. So at ops 64. I was unable to even do one. It should be a server que like in waves so we donāt all just go join a top 2 alliance. Not sure that would be good for the game. All ops 60s in a server in the same 2 alliances.
Or allow us to start a squad with less than 5 people. Sure we would lose but atleast we could participate. Lose. And still get the fraction currency that currently I have zero of.
When did they stop?
They need a comp chest for this fail, this is ridiculous
Haven't heard of any.
Can we push for that? It's a great product to be honest
This is feedback I've raised. Right now I don't think the tech allows it to open up outside of alliances, but with how popular arenas have been, I could see is working on a change at some point. Makes sense to me.
Ehhh... I can try, but don't know how successful I'd be. Maybe it will pop up later in the month?
Honestly, offering it twice a month is perfect. That and the new weekly offerings are the best products they've come up with and being in sales myself, you have to push what works.
This was my jam back in the day! Salt and Peppa were awesome!
Agreed š»
once arena gets to how y'all want it to work, you should add a separate but similar mode that automatically makes parties among players across alliances and open it up to lower-level players... at present there's very little social aspect to this game outside of alliances, and I think this could help a lot, in the end boosting recruitments into active alliances and increasing player retention (the mode doesn't even have to be PvP technically, could be PvE parties with specifical challenges in a limited time or something)
Is there any reason 90% of the Treasury screen is empty space, other than to look at some background graphic?
not sure. timer hit zero ship icon shows home system but using locate command takes me to galaxy map.
reset fixes but this generally only happens on mobile not pc
That does look weird. Will raise.
This will be ignored, but at 63 I've decided, unless the BP includes whatever new ship/feature whatever don't spend. At a minimum the new feature sould come with the BP. Make it $20 BP you get it over the course of the bp, $100 you get it up front and those get replaced with parts for SLBs and whatnot. But otherwise the game has died for me. To those who remain this is the minimum you should be requesting from scopely. The BP rewards have been less and less about whatever the current feature is and just a random dump of resources. They haven't event given a rare from the BP track since DS9. They used to do this, we have just gotten used to being treated poorly by the results.
Please remove the negative faction rep from the dalies.
<@&509690795536941056> Could you help me understand the math with the Terran Favour G4 BP cost reduction. 50% off from 1 Pilum BP should = 725 Creds not 966 like its saying
your forgetting that real world math doesnt exist in stfc or scopley minds. You need to adopt the scopley math which means at least half off of everything they say it decreases so 100%=50% at best. Not trying to bring hate its just a well known fact for those that have been around long enough
100% would indeed result in 50% of the original value. Efficiency formula: FinalCost = Base / (1 + Efficiency). In the case above itās 1450 / (1 + 0.5) = 966.667
Just a heads up, I mentioned it before, but it wasnāt in general chat the new event that weāre going on with the defense on Amadas. I do not have it up because I think Iām on blue stack instead of a scope account and itās not available there.
Sorry to reply to an older post here. In order to keep the momentum they need to act FAST implementing this.. 1 week is too long to have to wait and would suspect we see a change in min 6 months for this. I know it might be complex but there has to be a way otherwise this feature will drop off very quickly among the playerbase
Maybe halfway would be to allow teams to form amongst Allies
Thank you. At least i see that maths = what the price is now showing. Was really hoping i'd get 50% off from a simple math point hahaha. Thanks again
I have been playing this game for almost two years. So no Pulaski in the TNG crew? š¤Ŗ
Yeah, it technically means your credits are worth 50% more. Not that the cost is 50% less. So 10 credits now cover what used to cost 15, giving the 1/3 reduction you see.
blue swirl in wave defense should not be happening anymore. It is time to start firing programmers
yes just tried mirror wave, it is an utter dumpster fire.
Move the arena to weekends
Make it last longer and weekend is better. If you insist on a 14 level range make it sliding. so if a 63 starts the 14 range would allow a 49 to join. if that happened it would lock out a 64 or if a 65 joined then it would lower minimum to 51. still same range but DO NOT require a middle man of a given level to start it that's not necessary. it is in fact very annoying.
Arena should be daily and done in The evening for each zone, making it weekly and only for 8 hrs makes this a DOA release. I can live with it daily for 8 hrs or 72 hrs Friday - Sunday
But then nobody would spend when they are stuck in the loop....
The Wave BP is garbage! How many ciphers do we need when the those š are so glitchy and the MU has been broken for how long now?
I refuse to participate, let alone buy another garbage battle pass.
Remember when buying the elite bp was a guarantee to get the new officers?
And remember when the prices were lower?
Remember when the glitches were minimal and the game had more fun?
Bring back those things.
Fix what is here and stop adding new š©
This is still not working how many weeks to fix!!! we are loosing out on lots of stuff!!
should be fixed with thursday's update
Supposed to be fixed Thursday, even though we were told Tuesday.
Should have never pushed out the update with it broken.
Ftfy
We can only give you what we get, unfortunately these things change and theyāre outside of the community volunteer teams hands.
Broken content is always frustrating, each one of us plays the game and while I am not high enough ops to do it, others are and share your frustrations.
Yeah think Iāll stay off discord on Thursday
The new hailing frequency is a disappointment.
FYI, yes it is a picture but nothing happens.
No animation at all and worst part of it the red dot in the middle prevents you from actually seeing the text because of the colour overlapping.
A Designfail on multiple levels.
@tidal notch why is the server going down on days other than āpatch tuesdayā? There is a reason why there are no takeovers on that day, and why the events are normally kept light.
emergencies are one thing but rolling out arc version 2 is not an emergency rollout.
If you guys decide to reset Territories on a Thursday and before mergers, that's a BAD idea. The way the territories roll out make any reset not on a Tuesday a complete disaster based on takeover times....
Will next maintence fix it?
should be fixed tomorrow
Thatās my understanding
Any bets yet, what'll stop working as from tomorrow on then? š
Cheers š»š
FEEDBACK ON ARENAS FOR SCOPLEY
Think arena's have a lot of potential.
-It's Early days but would be nice to balance ops level more maybe handicaping somehow when high ops are pitted against low ops players.
-At the end of the match an instant leave arena button would be nice instead of having to wait on an auto leave timmer.
-As their is a personal player rating the searching for an arena squad could be extended to being able to join up with players of there server instead of just only being able to join up with players of the allience there with to extend the search pool and lower wait times. (particually for those that find themselfs at higher ratings).
Overall was fun and think arena has a lot of future potential just needs some more tweeks to make it better.
<@&509690795536941056> I strongly urge you to not reset Territories till after the merges. I'm not being merged, but this is a a terrible idea. Resetting on a Thursday puts things after the territory weekly cycle starts. I'm not even in APAC and I know this is complete garbage timing for them. Do it the Tuesday after server merges. You are creating so much negative player sentiment right now. Also less than 24 hrs notice is really really BAD. Also...you don't start a season 5 days after reset. This is beyond shortsighted
so you reset territory mid-cycle, then do a merger a week later to reset it again, all while running a battlepass. Gotcha, well that just means an easy skip on that one then, thanks for savings us all some money
How are we supposed to get this territory resetting info to all our members before they are unable to shield until NEXT WEDNESDAY? Those who can shield for 7 days, if they want to remain in territory until the next round of takeovers, will be unable to do any PvP before the 1st one is retaken. What a supid idea, Welll Done.
@raw fiber Itās totally unacceptable that Territory is being reset without warning tomorrow. We needed to know a week ago so as no to start services that would only run for a few days rather than wasting alloys. Not to mention we need time to warn everyone they need to move their base.
Please postpone until next week and keep this in mind for future resets. Alternatively, please refund to all alliances any alloys spent on level 2 and level 3 system services in the last week.
Why reset in mid of the week? What a....!
@raw fiber disappointed about lack of notice for territory reset and planning make itās difficult for alliances to plan. Why not give at least 48 hrs notice. Seems like comms were on the fritz
Teleport outside territory enables shields again lol
Is the teretorium reset tomorrow?
territory, yes
Can I get some general feedback about KSIās new song??
I'm curious as to why Scopley isn't waiting until the 22nd to reset territory. That way it's all done at once. Instead, you're going to have the mad dash to grab territory before the bp and events to get territory
Well, i just hit my first hostile limit. What a stupid thing. For a two day slb now i can't place in day 2 because i can't get any loot due to your broken system. I am currently placed first and now will lose more than likely due to this, perhaps its possible to change the daily hostile limit as you have changed the meta of the game and this sabotages us for trying to use it. Thanks, scopely.
Another quality Scopely update in plenty of time with good planning š¤Ø
Fix is coming!
Winter is coming
But you can't return base to the territory for the takeover a week later. It's always been reset on Tuesday & capture starts Wednesday. A lot want to stay in territory for quick access for the TO. Having to use a shield for 7days limits other aspects. Getting the info out to all members in time is all but impossible.
Byr Ch'Kelrer's below decks ability does not work and actually resulted in less loot dropped. Tested on T3 Voyager with Dajash Tolra (captain), Toli, Five of Eleven Below Decks: Trip Tucker, Byr Ch'Kelrer resulted in 333 Relics dropped from a lvl35 Hirogen Elite. Tested on T3 Voyager with Dajash Tolra (captain), Toli, Five of Eleven Below Decks: Trip Tucker, SNW Nurse Chapel resulted in 667 Relics dropped from a lvl35 Hirogen Elite.
This has to be a mistake on the reset. Like, come on...less than 24 hours notice, mid-week, just before merges......
@tidal notch any chance of getting Lt. Picard into an event store (this one or a later one)? Had a couple F2Ps mention that there's been no way to get shards for him yet.
Dear socpey santer all cat want for Christmas 2024 is a workng game
@tidal notch Can you please pass on the suggestion to the team that it'd be great if they cancelled the push notifications for the arena Armada? If I get notification about arena armadas, that means that I joined. If I joined, I don't need to be harassed. It's incredibly annoying. Tia
can we please remove the kill cap or at least make it higher like 4 times at least?
I'm wondering if it's still needed at all. š¤
Itās because they canāt stop the bot users so everyone gets capped
@tidal notch i know you asked earlier, but I haven't heard final word on extending Florida shields. We have a few members in the area that are still having connectivity issues
Still confirming but should have an announcement up soon.
Pretty sure this is exactly the point. Everything for the last 6-12 months had been meant to push or force PvP. I'm starting to wonder if the developers even know that most hates it, or if that negative feedback just never gets passed to them at all.
Oh it was passed on alright. I remember that players were VERY forthcoming in how they felt about the PvP focus of the first month of the Gorn arc.
So they're just ignoring it then. That's much better.
They just introduce whatever they think the Whales will jump on. They know exactly what 80% of the active players think about it, but don't care as long as they get their $$$$s.
PvP drives spending. Simple as that. Even if itās many people spending to just get away from it by being too powerful to hit.
@raw fiber when you give the details of all changes and fixes. Can you include what is going to be broken.?
If you start with the premise that everything will be broken, anything that works will be a pleasant surprise. Its all about turning that frown upside down.
there hasnt been a single maintenance or update where they havent broken or introduced several bugs its just a question of whats going down this time unfortunate but true
That last part of the conversation. Trust me. That wonāt happen because they are still pushing quantity over quality and we are 10 months into the promise of more quality and that has been very non existent. š¤£š¤£š¤£
Thats a surprise! We know what will be fixed of they give us patch notes, it's up to us to find out what they broke
To be fair the officers in this arc and ship are PvE based and im meh on them
22 months⦠they promised it the year before, too
We have to remember they're like politicians promise this thing and give that thing instead focus less on what they promised and more of what they give (or what little they give) The promise of quality over quantity was them trying to get more money and it worked after that statement was made revenue shot up massively that month. We don't have to forget the past but dont live in it either andno that's not all meant for you
They were raised in middle class families so itās ok.
that's no excuse i was raised in middle class family its about how ya raised with or without morals thats the real issue
I think the day we get something not broken and/or buggy is the day the game servers get shut down for good.
I have been testing Byr Ch'Kelrer today and I have only been able to get his below decks ability to work on certain hostiles. He also is not listed in the officer filter under "Loot Rewards".
Server 31. I kill hostiles and can't see carbon on my ships.
Look inside for the engine carbon buildup
