Just wanted to say how disappointed I am in this arc. The new hostiles are way too hard even at lvl 59 and a 1B power ship. It will take 15 trips to get the SMS done, and I donāt have that kind of time. Iāve tried all the suggested crews and it is still not enough. This will be the first arc ever I canāt get events done. So, thank you. Looks like Iāll be playing less if I canāt get anything done.

Thanks for auto exchanging my eye of ara shards, how do I tell if the conversion was done correctly? I've seen bad maths used in the past! #FreeDTI
They've probably never been more thrilled to see so much 'engagement' with one of their platforms.
Another 250 hostiles. Please remove this arc!
Thank you Scopely for day 3 of grinding. Really appreciate it, was wondering if I would have to watch others shooting the augment ships but, no, youāve allowed me to join in as well. Hoorah for the systems full of people enjoying this wonderful experience. Without you, Iād have time to experience real life. And as for the compensation chests, they were a great surprise and appreciate how theyāve replaced the items I lost due to, what can only be explained by a glitch in this otherwise perfect game š
Back to the original sms that everyone complained about and we have no details on if itāll changeā¦. Tsk tsk tsk <@&509690795536941056> you didnāt even list that as a known issue
I'm wondering why there's such a lack of damage control lately. They know the players are upset and they keep doing more things to upset the players... They want people to quit?
#FreeDTI
Another ridiculous grind the augment SMS that no one wants again
@rigid vapor stop being so cheap lower your prices give more ship parts to build them cause otherwise your game isnāt worth the time to download
So now the 'winner' bug has made its way to android too? well done
Still no iOS update
Are we sure that Scopely isn't subbing out new arcs developement to the lowest bidder?
If everyone wants people to level up. how about decreasing the grind as you go up. this new arc is bad, anytime swarms are used the higher G5 and 6 guys have to spend a long time grinding. eclipse the same way. faction hunt ect. it should be equal or faster grind as you go up. especially with how much extra is added. I have no motivation to rase ops level to bring on more grind. <@&509690795536941056>
But you guys got a fix update for that. We iOS people are still waiting š¤£
Feels like this waiting for the update
nah, the lowest bidder wouldnt produce trash this bad
Who is responsible for this super informative tool tip? I appreciate the attention to detail, but we don't need the name repeated, we need to know what it does. I know I can look elsewhere, but my feedback is.. Why? š
So glad they were on the ball and fixed the rediculous grind needed for Evolving Enemies.
Oh wait, nothing has changed and they just don't care.
What is annoying that part of those tooltips for the same type of item are showing the details, and part of them are not, it's like half the game is checked by a team and half of the game is checked by another and they dont know what the others are doing.
Its why I am still not to ops 40 itās like the punish you for moving up.
They still haven't given everyone credit for doing the Feesha Archive before the event started. They only credited everyone for doing the DVor.
That's what u will get from me, aswell for ingame spending
Three days into an arc is way too early to be running a faction credit spend SLB.
And worse ... If there was an auto grind area that is better than the Texas area ... That would be desired, but they put in the go home guns to prevent that.
Yeah, they really aren't hiding thier greed lately.
So, after they pulled the 2 DTI artifacts from people i wake up today to this... 2 artifacts remaining when I had tons in here? Why is this being done? Is scopley ACTIVELY trying to kill the game?
No warning, nothing. I won't spend a penny on this game anymore. MAJOR Apologies need to be made to the player base. Lying to us calling it balance is preposterous.
Artifacts auto convert to remnants and disruptors now, any banked shards will convert when you gain a new one.
Great for remmants. terrible for disruptors and we have passed on the feedback, and are right behind everyone in not being happy about it.
@finite mural will they fix that? its been 2 days and no word from Scopely yet
Already killed it
It will not be fixed, they be chipping away at doing ATās for free.
I think the silence is your answer
Habemus Papam!
Letās pray that @tidal notch has the faith to believe in players feedback and unite the community to achieve the goal in enjoying the game again.
LLAP
@tidal notch are y'all sure that the augment Khan missions are all supposed to unlock at the same rep????
hay all mointerintg can we please remove tips from change screens or option to trun tips off it adds to screen loadning time and so not needed
How many events and milestones do iOS people have to miss before you escalate things with Apple. This is unacceptable
You really aren't missing anything. Most aren't bothering anyway. This entire arc is unacceptable
Just saying how defeated and disappointed in this game I have become to feel. From the issues of collecting on the Field Training from the beginning to this new ARC events that are totally non achievable, to limits of having certain ships at certain levels to tier another ship, to the useless effect of an exocomp, to the apparent nonadvancement of features / abilities from leveling up research. I am at this game daily, for hours at a time, nothing I do makes any appreciable amount of difference. I have even spent some money to help out. At this time, I feel done, today may be the day I finally throw in the towel on this financial money pit as that seems to be the only way to get ahead, and it takes a ton of cash too.
Players were saving up and using it to complete the 10k alliance task assignments
Interested in how scopely can fix a mission that's impossible to do due to rep lock, yet can't or more likely won't fix the insane grind this arc.
#FreeDTI
#Stop the Grind
Why is the Friday event showing up on Thursday?
This arc is a complete disaster.
why does it take all month to get comp chests out to us all this arc but in previous arcs they have been within a day or so after tje issue? I wonder if they are too busy re coding to make sure the daily updates dont screw up even more
What a fantastic arc. Failed 2 of 3 away teams missions with 88% chance. How is it an 88% success chance if I fail 66% of the time? Not to mention I'm not wasting 6 hours killing in augment space for fabio officer shards. Have you heard that games are supposed to be fun?
Dear Scopely,
This new exile grind is horrific, it's all the worst parts of eclipse and swarm bundled together, sure the store is nice, but it's also painful to do.
I get it, you've created a problem so you can sell us a "solution" in the form of a new ship soon... You gotta pay for those new yachts somehow... But it's just going to make people despise the game.
Ops 60+ players who are big spenders also hate it...
You're chasing away your main revenue source.
Maybe consider making the goals lower so people don't genuinely hate it
Thanks
The iOs issue is yet to be resolved, so they won't sent any comp chests out till Apple releases the patch. Why it's taking so long...who knows. It's like they sent it snail mail instead of putting in an urgent ticket/request
It's taking long because they didn't pay the extra money to have it patched sooner.
thire going be one big compo chest moew thinks
The IOS issue? Bro, the Voyager systems still don't work right. My ships get stuck warping. Ships get stuck in combat. Waves crash. Can't have fast ships in Arenas. Matchmaking in arenas is ... almost malicious. There's a LAUNDRY list of problems that have persisted for years.
The IOS issue ain't news š
Hey letās āguide players through the new contentā by setting an nigh impossible task for 95% of playersā¦. Still no updates on the SMs events that require 6-8 hours to complete #StoptheGrind #FreeDTI
What would be useful is how IOS players will go about getting extra compo for all the events they canāt see and compete in.
I still canāt do anything as the update appears to be going via carrier pigeon.
I just wanted to say fine work, $copely. Fine work indeed.
Another year or two and this game should be ready for Beta testing.
Still waiting on iOS update. How many nails you all trying to hammer into this coffin?
The Comp (cop out) chest with the points to finish the Complete New Missions meta is a Joke. How about addressing the underlying issues.
-
The Amount of Splicers dropped vs the amount needed to refine.
-
Difficulty of the AE Hostiles being poorly matched to player ops level
-
The Rep grind needed just to be able to summon a Khan Champion.
-
The Go Home Gun mechanic. IF the intention was to force players to grind Splicers then NOT having the Go Home Gun but making the D7's a difficult but doable grind would allow players to passively farm them while doing other things.
If you clear localization and click where the Winner button is before the game catches up you can get to the events section and bypass the Winner button. You can't claim what's in the queue, but you can at least get to the events section. I discovered this by accident
Great idea getting rid of Chaos Tech and other events people actually like doing, and replacing them with whatever this dumpster fire is.
I love the fact I donāt even know what winner button people are talking about. Thatās how lame the UI and this arc is.
For those with iOS that are stuck because of the "Winner" button issue: You can bypass the button if you Clear your Localization and click where the Winner button is before it syncs with the server, granting you access to your Events Tab. Once the server catches up you will be locked out again, but this way you can actually see your events and join your faction ones. I have tested this multiple times and it works as a bypass <@&509691205798592532> <@&509690795536941056> FYI, to temporarily help folks
How about that iOS update?
join the android masterrace 
I'm still hoping for a fix to ships that get lost in warp other than restarting.
It's okay, it's not as though being able to have a ship travel between systems is a basic, fundamental game function that you would need to have consistently working well before you ever released it to the public. I mean if it were, and if the game were out in public for years, and costing people money to advance, that would be really embarrassing wouldn't it?
I have tried this too, and it gets stuck on a loading screen. It is NOT a reliable workaround method
Huge fan of sending 2 ships to the system but the 1st bugs out to 0 and when you restart it never actually left the dock... Tbh this whole month and well recently since going 60+ has stopped my dolphin spending ... I don't have 2 hours+ a day everyday to play this game and it's ridiculously poor design over and over... Making more grind when not 6 months ago l they pushed reducing... Claim all ought to claim everything screw opening every bloody tab to click claim... Now more and more currencies with no exchange etc. at the end of the day meh
Plus they are so tone deaf at this point
I know this is laughable considering the basic things are still broken, but I would love to see a definable macro in game that ran through and did a bunch of things you pre-selected. So like all the refinery things you normally hit, all the faction store things you normally hit, all the helps, all the gifts, one button. You hit record, perform a bunch of actions, save, then one click to rule them all.
I've done it 6x myself
being dumped into gc again on login is a HUGE yuck. while you're re-fixing that, please , make the reward/chest claim process at noon and midnight last (MUCH) less than 10 minutes.
Is the game a mess again I can't even load up now after about 15 crashes
Thanks mate you have given more advice than support. They havenāt even bothered to reply. They will get a shock now Iāve stopped spending money because of this š
If the idea was to make us regret ever installing the game in the first place, you're succeeding. It was alway's a devil's bargain where we knew you were re-monetizing nostalgic IP you had the rights to. Even then, you blatantly punished anyone who tried to play for free. It wasn't just a grind, it was a humiliation. For pay to play players, it's even worse. One might rationalize a single over-priced pack of meta-meta-meta currencies for 99.99... but it's never sufficient to actually achieve a goal... because there's always meta-meta-meta-meta currencies you still need and would have to grind for a month for.
To actually unlock a fictional representation of a ship costs an actual real-world car payment. The psychological manipulations you use to keep people addicted are blatant, cruel, and would make a Ferengi blush.
Rules of acquisition 296. Never be as greedy as scopely
The grind is like the xindi when it dropped....it will get easier and quicker don't forget that there is always candy crush for those that are crying too much
What, are they paying you? Dumbest take I've read yet
Congratulations. Iām happy for you
You guys have rushed a lot of stuff and made it to where many feel frustrated, this is also known as "feature creep," refers to the excessive addition of features to a game during its development, with us being beta testers of your bugs often leading to a cluttered and overwhelming experience for players. This can occur when developers try to include everything they can imagine, rather than focusing on a core, cohesive experience. If you wonder why the game is going to start heading down hill, this is why
It can be introduced too when you want a new cash cow every 3 weeks
I would buy a $100 if I got one good release that was pure fixes and grind loop retirements. Easy.
@tidal notch , you need to add the multiple ghost armadas to the known issues, pretty sure it's been known now for many months
Yeah well, Scopely is cut off from my wallet. No more paying for broken content. Game is supposed to be fun.
here's a little piccy
Totally agree. I think we want the same thing. We want our play time not to be misery.
Where can I exchange hijacked splicers for wrath credits?
Augment faction
It's takes me an hour each day just to collect the free daily items, go through the refineries to select what I can get for free for my daily pulls and go through the faction store and see what it is I am looking to buy with in game currencies. If I only had two hours a day play that marks half of it.
When you going to fix that? You should stop add new stuff and work on game bugs!! The events is one of main thing in game. Yesterday I was disapointed but today Iām starting to be angryā¦
I stopped spending more than $120 a year ago, and now, I am down to just $20 or not opening my wallet at all - not worth it no more... The first year I played, was happy to spend money, was over $20k the first year... now, you are lucky to see me buy a ship every 3 months - add to that the KNOWN bugs you people refuse to fix or just ignore for now to make more sales is getting on people nerves.
My thoughs exactly.
Itās less the one awful grind, but instead of keeping it steady or reducing it (aka play smart, and not too many hours), they add more to it. We now have Xindi, MU grind for FKR events, usual fkr grind during events (crucible and so on), the irregular grinds (Silents and more), and they add this heavy lift on top of it. Iām fine with some effort required, but totally not ok with having to spend most of my free time on a game to advance reasonably.
Game should be mainly part of the daily fun, and less a āyear in hellā
I agree. It's not fun grinding the same mobs for hours every day. We already deal with it. But this is like supersized version of the same. I have literally no interest in spending hours runing back to "augment" space (which I already maxed) over and over again, because at level 64 with a maxed EntD I can kill about 12 level 60s before I have repair. No thanks.
<@&509690795536941056> with the response (or really the lack of) to the negative feedback for this arc it really makes me want to quit the game. I know you really don't care, but this is just getting ridiculous with no signs of improvement.
they never even look to fix the bugs we have had for near a year
#FREEDTI - we will not forget
It's so much more than that at this point. They had to get everyone angry first in order to push this pure š© š© of an arc.
/take_quiz27
The archive SMS wasnāt fixed for those who completed enough pillars to count but not the entire dāvore archive. Iām tier 7 and should have completed the event but unless I go to Tier 9 I wonāt get any progress.
Give it a rest with the bloody tooltips screens already! Can't even do a chest pull without having to wade through 2 or 3 of them. Yes, I know drydocks are where I upgrade my ships!
WTH? Why do we now have Voyaging Beyond today? That's the weekly Friday event. Advance Notice of the change would have been nice
Least you can see the events! Count yourself lucky. No one has even spared an update for the IOS players still struggling. They havent even responded all day, very poor.
there are not enough events on Thursdays, event without EE š
I just wanted to see if I understood correctly that you spent over $20,000 in real US Dollars on this game in the first year alone. Given the monetization scheme, this appears to be completely possible, yet horrifying.
Maybe close to $30k over 18 months
Y'all remember when we were kids and they sold us an already complete and working game for 40 bucks?
This is exactly why scopley doesn't care to produce quality over quantity. Prime example unfortunately.
When did it become normal to throw 20k at a bloody video game?
i know people who spend $2k a week at times... I am a dolphin, not a whale... this game is about time or/and money pick your poison. BUT with the bugs that have been around forever and lack of addressing them, I am just burning out ,what i have I will use, then fade off I will be lucky to stay by the end of the year... nothing is done in this game to repair what they break unless it makes it unplayable. How many times have we seen ghost armadas? for how long? who still gets stuck traveling in mirror space with the auto enter? I want Quality, I want fair, I want what we were promised, what we ( I ) paid for
Well said Volta
am I the only one who hates being a Beta tester each month ?
He bought at least 1 Mayflower š
No, no you're not.
never... I leaned to buying items that are forever items, or ones that take more than 3 months to earn free. This event here was the first time I spent money in 3 months... the 6th FC slot, and the FC himself. 2 items that you cannot earn within 3 months
and they are things I would normally buy, but at this point, scopely doesn't deserve my money. They need to do better.
Perhaps the ones of you doing Ćnsta , TwĆÆtter or whatsoever should take the feedback to that platform too. More visible to the public .would be interesting to see what happens.
And just fyi my first variant of that post got stopped for posting. Thatās why I wrote the platforms that way.
you would think that after all this time, they would add a GUI scaling for 4k screens so I am not feeling like the stuff is so tiny, but I am sure that would make like a Dozen bugs I would never get rid of, SO Do not go out of your way to mess the game up more on my account.
Hey, <@&509690795536941056>, remember that fix for the ghost armadas? It broke. Yeah, they're back and worse than ever. Is anyone EVER going to actually fix anything?
@tidal notch is it intended that Khan's missions in the augment store all u lock at the same rank, or were they supposed to be staggered.
Totally understand. And we have some updates coming that I think will help.
There's something fundamentally evil about using Star Trek intellectual property for what amounts to gambling addictions and romance scams. Except the gambling addictions are intentionally created through a constant manipulation of your time and exploiting various psychological and neurocognitive techniques. And the "romance" is for nostalgic intellectual property in trade for access to your bank accounts, with the promise of fictional rewards.
Rewards that disappear the day Scopely runs out the door with all your money and shuts off the game servers.
Probably a nice new £99 pack for USS Relativity, that will take 6 months to get, and by the time f2p get close, they will change something to make it even harder for them
I sure hope so.
@tidal notch, why was Voyaging Beyond shifted to Thursday with no advance Notice? Will there be a new Friday event replacing it?
Things are getting stupid, we have players who have been playing for years now leaving even our ops 70's have had enough, you have shot yourself in the foot with this unplayable arc.
Is that update coming next month for the low cost of 99.99? š
@faint glade more than 1 spent over 1 million
as per normal, Reliant will arrive next month to solve all the frustration and pain of the first month - the grind and chasers be gone - your very own genesis device for the low low price of $1000
The big accounts leave,,,, the small new ones can not even participate in the arc until level 20. No new accounts no future to the game.
You guys should finally learn the principles of communication.
Donāt leave customers without info to their questions if you are already working on a solution.
Best would have been to pull the plug on Tuesday evening and continue for another by week and release a proper tested product.
No wonder your company figures are pointing downwards.
I don't think 'beta testing' is in their vocabulary
Pretty sure the only testing they do is on our patience
But why block new players? No new real servers for a year now, only bp2 servers that get merged 4 month after start into a double ascended server,,,, new accounts now started in 60+ ops servers, and now excluded from battlepass
Oh, and let's not even get started on how unstable the actual game play is. Constant freezing, reboots, and glitches. Then the useless exocomps that you see absolutely no benefit from, did I miss anything Scopely?
The game is coming to the end of its life, more and more bugs, replacing old loops with harder loops, pricing out all the free to play. Like the last TNG ep was titled āall good thingsā¦ā
the community mod can fix that. (PC/MAC)
it has a UI scaling option i use to enable the side-chat on low resolution screens, but it should also work in reverse allowing you to make the UI larger and easier to read/click.
Players under 20 .. no battlepass now? Feeding us exile events for hostiles we can't kill? Galaxy recruit rewards we can't use? Ok I get it. Scopely doesn't want perma low levels on their servers , trying to get us to level up or quit.. but even at low level I've spent $$ when I felt it served me
@blissful rock , those Galaxy Recruit tokens are worth hoarding. Once you hit ops 25, wait for an Alliance Tournament and use them on a Tournament Task
25 minutes of conatant grinding the new hostiles, with maximized crew....and a little over 1/4 of the way done. So over an hour and a half of grinding for 1 solo event. Great quality of life improvement you all made.
They will auto convert them into a big š©to make you feel better about your life choices.
<@&509690795536941056>
This game needs an overhual.
-
The graphical interface, especially on the main screen, is disorganized and ugly. Why not go with an LCARs themed system?
-
The map is a disorganized mess, with no real logic. It's a house where a madman has added 100 rooms haphazardly. Systems far away take 40 seconds to get to, while systems just as far away take 7 minutes to warp to. The color scheme is random, with some types of systems getting color areas, some not, some star systems getting highlighted with cloud effects, some not. Disorganized, random, and confusing.
-
The inventory system is a mess. And Scopely refuses to take steps to fix it, even tho the players have been begging for a fix for 5 years. It's also ugly, disorganized, and there's no way to trade up, delete, or archive useless inventory. Add that to the fact that with 5 or 600 currencies, it's impossible to understand what item is used for what function. This is an EASY software improvement, and Scopely arrogantly ignores our requests on this. Why?
-
Lastly, Scopely doesn't get the main point of excellent PVP play: competitive PVP is FUN. PVP where the outcome is a foregone conclusion is a loser for both players. For the winner, it's boring. For the loser, it's frustrating and humiliating. Do better.
3 days in a row, and no relief. I don't have time to do it today.
Something special one has to do after unlocking a new FC seat to make it actually able to seat a FC?
Did you claim the slot under gifts?
I just want to say that the events for this ARC so far have been ridiculously unatainable
That was it. Ty
Friday is now Mass loop day, Where every event happens at once and if you do not finish it, you cant complete the arc
IOS update available, no it isnāt. wtf, this has gone on long enough
It is available
The game JUST converted all of my excess temporal artifacts into temporal disruptors! Wasn't this supposed to be fixed?
I have a player that has installed the ios update and reinstalled the game and still has the green error. Any suggestions? <@&509691205798592532>
Ask them to clear their localization
That's some really slimy design between this and the dti debacle. I saved for months and didn't get hit since I started seeing reports on it. Claimed a xindi armada chest and they all went poof even after it was fine 3 days ago after the arc started. That's literally stealing from players. That's some real contempt they have for the player base that supports them. I knew I should've quit years ago
Yeah so what are the chances of some automation for this specific daily button click? Be a prime opportunity to get rid of a currency item from my stash too if it could take the whole lot
I never want to see GC. Why do you make game open to it now? Give us a selector, or better yet let us disable GC.
I spend valuable seconds trying to plot my path through Mirror Space. I would appreciate it if they simplified travel through Mirror Space, make it so you'd receive an alert detailing what keys are required to go to a certain system and whether or not you have the keys required.
So tell me how this is possible when no one, prior to Tuesday, had over 1 mil in rep?
Even hitting 10m rep wouldnāt allow one of these āchampionsā to be unlocked as 10m is āPatronā and āSuperiorā needs to the rep rank.
That being saidā¦. Please Tell me how the āComplete new missionsā SMS can actually be done⦠Iād like to hear it.
You don't. That's why they're sending out a chest tomorrow to complete the sms.
<@&509690795536941056> yo I just spent $100 on another fleet commander spot, and it isn't unlocked.
look under your gifts
I donāt know why, but I canāt make any purchases online
Is asking Tiger why all the arcs he makes are terrible respectful or nah?
Yo can this please be pve reports and pvp reports split into two tabs. Ta.
Also while we are at it. Maybe a third showing raids or something. Needs to be separate too. Ta
Any eta in chest for points that were locked behind a mission you have to buy?
Tomorrow
how nice of scopely to come out with a chest to finish the mission ā¦ā¦ā¦. AFTER the Defeat Khanās Champion Event expires.
Best possible bug to have with this game.
Where is my genesis device I paid for,, I will revoke my bank transaction
as I said elsewhere, I don't know the details here & I don't see it in the store to purchase myself, but if you're having an issue with a purchase:
- genesis device is a chaos tech & should be in the chaos tech menu
- if you purchased it and it isn't, that's something you'll need cs to help with: #š½-how-to-contact-support
The augment faction store lists several levels of Khan's Champions - I assume thats what Part 3 is - but we have to be a superior rep level to unlock them and i cant be bothered to grind my day away and keep repairing my ships, using speedups and lat. And ignore the other aspects of the game. This is a mistake. So i will take the comp pac and not bother with the new content until it is user friendly. Thanks for the pac (I've not received it yet)
Where do I find the iso update?
the iOS update should be in the app store or whatever it's called for apple
The iApp Store probably š š¤·š¼āāļø
Attempted several times but not there
#FreeDTI
What a dumb Arc this is , omg š±
Go kill hostiles... Errrr ok... Right go kill more hostiles... Ugh... Did I forget you need to go kill more hostiles? Yep go do that... š Yeah no.
Worst ever
for the luv of god, fix the dam in game lag
It would be nice if Russian writing was not allowed in the global chat, here we are currently spreading victory over Germany and Ukraine and Russian propaganda
For the sake of saving people's sanity can you PLEASE give hirogen hunter ships some sort of identifying marker in systems where they are mixed with lost hostiles. Especially when you run events where only one ship type will count for those of us that don't want to wear our fingerprints down constantly swiping around the system zoomed in far enough to read their names.
It's just another REALLLY BASIC thing you people just can't be bothered to do.
Just a helpful hint...."quality of life improvements" aren't meant to mean things that boost the game income. But you people sure as .... Don't seem to intend on fixing the bugs and player experience in general.
FYI: giving 12 updates on how you're working on fixing ONE BUTTON really wasn't necessary.
<@&509690795536941056>
I know there is a lot of other things but kir'shara still ain't working as "sold".
<@&509690795536941056> I have updated the game in Google Play, and constantly restarted it. Why is it that there are still glitches in Chat - i.e. the black line at the top, the constant stop-start lag in typing, and the default GC display?
At 28 ops, my priority assignments have 30% success chance with best officers, and take 4 days to complete.. seems like a waste of time lol
I havent completed a new ATA since i cant get above 46%, used all the crrency to send and wasted speed ups. Op 56
One of my favourite glitches, among the many in this game, is when you go out of the game for 5 seconds and have to spend the next 10 minutes and several tries later to get back in because of that ridiculous preparing screen.
<@&509690795536941056> can someone address this in game spam
and this is why we will never get scopely to fix the issues they have in the game. Until people stop buying packs they will just say oh well we are making what we need we can ignore the rest
checking
At least the most important issues get immediate attention š¤£
We donāt want everybody to go and visit Mary on discord then nobody is playing the game anymore š¤£
we need to get her balanced asap
Please add to your bug list.
Muted players appearing in gc. Clicking on them and it says unmuteā¦
30 minutes and I still havenāt gotten through my daily button pressing due to lag grrrr
I just want to open my 100000 chests without this nonsense
Lag spikes on EU this morning are horrendous. Goes with the arc, I suppose.
Something isn't right since the update. When I click 'claim' it buffers for a long time before giving the rewards, or displays an error message pretty quickly so that I have to hit claim again. Happening on PC and Android. Only since the update, was better before then. I was going to end by asking if it is happening for anyone else but there's a similar post right above š
Seems like the game is running as normal
Some players are still waiting to get their Matrix Diodes back ... why not simply spread them with an Gift Chest?
It's not the players' fault that there have been problems with redemption, but now everything is simply being passed on to them to take care of.
And a few more or fewer Matrix diodes in our inventories ... doesn't make the whole thing any slower
And while we are at it , dimensional Breach is also the most consuming garbage also , all here to keep you online , just use up all your armada credits so you can buy more
This arc keeps getting better...all the issues and all the grind and now emergency maintenance. Really winning this month. You really need to step your game up and ensure those comp chests are good. Still a lot of people missing currency and items from packs they paid real money for....not that i think anyone should have to pay for anything for this shocker of an arc
i love how we go into emergency maintenance when the store is playing up but you drag comp chests lag generally all round rubbish we put up with daily shows where your priorities lie
What is with this payout? 660k for 1, 4m for 2?? In the time it takes some ops lvls to make 4mil, they'll have spanned 24hrs to just go for the 1 š
@raw fiber can someone explain to me why scopley just converted all my artifacts. i don't care about the normal ones, but my temporals are all converted too. i saved the parts especially for the aliance tournament. it's just cheeky that they interfere with an account like that. it's bad enough that you're just messing up, but now interfering in the players' accounts like this is more than cheeky
Your response to valid tickets is woeful, closing ticket without resolution is an abysmal way to engage with players
and exile hostiles scoring is ridiculous i've no time to hit 700 ships to finish event i spend loads on this game and all you want is to take our money and no new event until you sorted ios claim button but that was a lie
What a great Idea: Put all OPS Players in one system to do a grind. As a OPS 60-70 Player you have a lot of Loot Goblins there. Just hit the 40-50 OPS Players. Let them grind for you š
With max loot crew and pilum (for g4 players) it only takes 56 hostiles to get 4 million loot killing the lvl 40ās (even without pilum max loot crew is about 74 ish hostiles)
Might take you 3-4 trips depending on cargo size but itās actually very easy
Emphasis on 'g4' players 'with max loot crews' killing hostiles of what lvl did you say?
did syndicate spike research, says 400% to daily claim, had been getting 14k daily, but now only getting 42k daily, how is that 400%
@flat cliff this is max loot crew (not chapel/hugh). You can also use g4 rares for extra loot bonus, Agimus FT for loot and Thought Maker CT for loot.
Lvl 40 hostiles, with max loot no g4 rare and no chaos tech or forbidden tech. Using this crew you get about 57K loot per kill. (Based on your officers tier)
With g4 rare and CT/FT noted above your looking at 70-80K loot per kill depending on your g4 rare tier
But only If you don't become a loot-goblin for the higher OPS players
I have that crew. But no g4 ships yet.
How long, do you think, til they through Augment loot research at us? Lol
In this instance itās always best to ensure disco is ready to summon your ship home.
@flat cliff without the rare or ft/ct your still looking at an average 57K loot with this crew. Itās roughly about 70 ish hostiles (I do 74 as it fills my cargo). Depending on your cargo size is depending on how many trips it takes.
You have no g4 ships? Hmm assuming g3 epic is your best ship I think the 40ās should still be easy but very low max cargo so might take a few trips
I have epic g3's with 2mil+ plus. NSEA and Vindicator. My officers aren't maxed though, so...
A G4 rare ship will make your life easier. Even a G4 Common ship has a better DPR compared with the NSEA. You can get some blueprints by hitting enemies in Sol/Kronos/Romulus, in the new & old away team shop and of course in the fraction store. You won't regret to spend your fraction credits on a rare ship. Those have a built in Loot ability
Hey is anyone else on Samsung having an issue of not seeing the Hotfix for the Khan Arc? I've been looking in the plastered and there is no update. Last update was on Tuesday?
have you tried reinstalling?
those tips & inspriational quotes on the loading screen are super useful when the loading is less than a second 
*" ... dock ships ... when your station is attacked" *
wait.. what? what when my station is attacked? WHAT?
Never seen this before...
Did they take the game down for maintenance?
Itās in GC every time. Just a lot of folks never go there.
yes
its nice they are fixing the issue, but timing... just woke up to do my thursday only solos for my week of vindicator exchanges bvecause i had meetings last night and now i wont be able to get them done before i leave for work. ships hard enough to tier up as it is without missing a week of turn ins
I was gonna do that when I got home.
This a message that is sent out when the latency is so bad that hackers are trying to exploit the pay side of the game. Before we all know $copley wouldn't do this for the players.
You have people in your server attacking each other in the new systems? Ouch š¬ all friendly on ours, everyone hates it so don't make it worse for people
Keep reading above my comment 𤣠itās not my server
what server r u on? all friendly? my kind of world...
401, but don't expect to win incursions, in general we're not harsh enough š usually pretty helpful though! And we have cake... Oh and also lag š
don't we all hae lags ????
I'm from 400. We are the ones winnig the Incursionsš Not everyone does hit in the new systems, but there are some higer level WHO do
with tips like this no wonder people don't shield during incursions they just dock their ships and watch it happen š
If only we stopped getting paired with you š at least it's getting to even grounds now, the first few times you were ascended before us so it was brutal š
disclaimer: I donāt write code.
Question : why would scopely need Apples permission to fix a bug?
could it be that their arc didnāt perform properly on the iOS platform?
Rather than correct their own programming, they needed appleās permission to alter the code in the platform.
The lazy way to fix things .
703 has a couple of "nice" guys, too, in new systems .. seriously š
seems like the game may have really been "fixed" this time- 30 minute maintenance going on for 1 hour +
It started 27 minutes ago
it's not fixed if it comes back in time to do anything before event reset lol. Joking aside it feels like with all the issues that persist or somehow introduced into game they should be taking longer to make sure game runs right before opening it back up to us. Yes I understand that it means we can't finish events last minute anymore but hey life ain't fair right....
The Apple app store approves updates before they get published for security purposes. Usually it's automated but if it gets flagged it'll need someone to manually check it.
Meanwhile other app stores are a lot less strict, you can tell by looking at all the junk on the play store vs App store š
I guess scopley submit regular updates a day or so before a new arc but having a hot fix caught them out this time
Ps. This slow mode is killing me š
whats the name of the new prime being added
Prime Lag Reduction š„
You got to be careful when buying it though, the other new prime is "Oops All Lag"
$129 Anti-Lag pack, good for 30 clicks or 30 minutes, whichever comes first
nice one
30 minutes are over
Did you purchase the "emergence maintenance cool down prime" ?
No change, still bad latency when claiming.
<@&509690795536941056> donāt forget to update known issues in that the iOS update is available, and no longer delayed.
"We've encountered a bug while trying to fix our bug, servers will remain off, please come back during office hours on Monday"
Fix super effective, chests no take 30 seconds to open... <@&509690795536941056>
I still have the issue that iphone heats up after few Minutes, the game starts lagging and finally crashes. Cleaning localization, reinstalling STFC does not fix the issue.
Only temporary solution is force quit the game so the phone can cool down.
<@&509690795536941056> I've just logged in on PC after the maintenance, but the first chest I claimed froze and then said an unexpected error occured š©
"working as intended"
does the person that wrote the fix still have a job?
This recent update has made the lag for claiming chests and doing pulls painful. New junk is added faster than old content is archived (I didnāt have a need for lat mining with the ex borg store) and itās becoming more of a chore than ever. Getting to the point where quitting seems pretty attractive.
What have you done with this emergency maintenance???? Game got tons of lags and behaving inacceptable. Some of my claims and pulls from refinery dusted.
that's just how the game runs...
Holy **** It's WORSE!
/take_quiz
Emergency maintenance? One of the $99 pack buttons must have been broken. Usually maintenance fixes or prevents issues ... not here.
Lolol chest claiming is EVEN SLOWER now
Ok so stuff now does not work š
Great start!
I can't open any chests + even higher server ping than before....
The update has only made things worse!
1 step forward and 68 steps back classic hot fix achievement recieved roflmao
Thanks Scopley, lag is now much worse after emergency fix the lag
- I did expect it
- this didnt happen yesterday
Chest and bundle claims worse now than before the maintenance.
10secs of the chest button spinning, the loot comes up then 5 to 10 secs of blank screen with spinner
If the maintenance was supposed to remove chest lag, it had the opposite effect.
āCommunication errorā opening chests
Great job on fixing that lag
Awesome
Superb
It was all good before last iOS update. May we please stop fixinā things that are not broken?
Also - canāt get back into the game. Cāmon guys and gals šš
And one more thing - pleeeeeeease fix gdmn missing research!!!
Sure this wonāt surprise anyone but it seems the emergency maintenance had zero effect, still stupidly slow when claiming boxes
I think it made the problem worse
Thanks Scopley, lag is now much worse after emergency fix the lag &&& #freeDTI
But are the packs still selling? Only thing Scopley cares about.
I will just leave this here š Nice emergency maintenance to address latency etc etc
Great decision to make the game worse, with MORE bugs and issues than before...
Also, no compensation for any of this???
By looks of it scopley is putting money ahead of the players.
surely you're not just realising that dude?
Your "maintenance" didn't work. Maybe you should try more than just turning it off, and turning it back on again. 
Do you even read the official updates? If youāre gonna troll, be effective. Compensation for multiple issues across multiple chests is scheduled before end of week.
The maintenance somehow made the latency 10x worse at best
Still lag when claiming gifts!
Did anyone find out what folder the "Prime Chest Claim Lag reduction" was in the store, or is that coming at reset?
Hopefully not many events will be scheduled today. Players will have their hands full doing daily claims.
Game locked up right off the bat, I guess the fix was to break it again! Yeeeeahhhhh team!
If they did that it would actually be better...
I had to give up, it was excruciating, took me ten mins to claim ten things.
š
Login failed messages and not able to get into the game never seen any of the promised compensation chests either
Ah, built in loot on G4 rares. Nice tip
I would love to be a programmer for scopely do emergency maintenance to fix lag. Bring the system back up with double the lag that was present before keep your job.
I can't see anything saying about compensation, unless your a IOS player.
doing claims, or anything else right now is completely impossible, the lag is so much worse it's unplayable
That's because turning it off, fetching a coffee and scratching your bits before going back to your desk and turning it back on is not maintenance
<@&509690795536941056> Private messages taking 60 seconds to appear post emergency maintenance
@raw fiber Just tried to claim Bajor Epic Loot Exchange.
Got an error and it ate all my resources without giving me the claim.
This is not just lag anymore.
have opened a support ticket already
I want all my currencies that are dusted back. Now?
Perhaps you should scroll back. Zero mention that this is for iOS.
There is a separate post outlining a second comp for IOS.
Fix this pleeeeease!!!!
The fix didnāt workā¦..s l o w e r nowā¦
Amazing hot fix guys, you added additional latency to the pulls
I don't think the 30min maintenance worked. It made it worse.
Maintenance did not fix claiming lag on iOS
Yeh, it's still slow, if anything that maintenance has made it worse, well done š
Guessing the devs didnāt get that memo š
𤣠𤣠𤣠𤣠𤣠𤣠𤣠𤣠𤣠𤣠𤣠𤣠𤣠𤣠𤣠𤣠𤣠𤣠𤣠𤣠š¤£
Can't login on windows. Did re-install with new download but it stops at 66% load and then this comes up
I had zero lag doing pulls before this "maintaince" to fix nonexistent lag. Now I can pull antthing.
Unexpected.....lol. Not unexpected...at all.
server 51 is running like dog poop, instead of taking 20 minutes pre patch with 500 clicks, i turned on no click and i'm 1/4th of the way done collecting my morning crap and its taken 30 minutes
just lost 250 GS-31 Recon data on an officer pull with no officers being provided. This is getting ridiculous.
Emergency Maintenance to fix lag. Was the fix to add more? Seriously, this is worse than what it was before the maintenance.
I swear, if I were that bad at my job I would be in the unemployment line.
Scopely the problem isnt fixed about the latency <@&509690795536941056>
I've got the exact same problem on android.
Winner button for iOS : "I broke the game". Chests for everyone: "Hold my beer!"
Refinery extremely slow!
So is Scopley's plan to introduce so many bugs we forget about DTI? #freedti
If they were in my line of work and this bad at their jobs they would be dead š¤£
Scopley, please rename the current arc to LAAAAAGGGG! to reflect reality
Great, the lags is worse since the update!
players: nothing is working!
devs: Its a buggy mess of spaghetti code!
execs: Cash shop still works, so the game is not broken
community managers: 
lol @raw fiber , i click the system button to look outside my base....and it brings me to my alliance starbase
Apparently, if you make everything lag the same, then it's like there's no lag at all!
That's been going on for months.
after windows wouldn't launch, I tried an android install and it stopped @ 66% as well
Lag is horrible on the claims on s42. Taking 10-15 seconds per button
I think Bruce Dickenson, the legendary producer behind the cowbell song has been hired by scopely except he needs more lag rather than cowbell
Fix didn't work. If anything the lag is worse. Server 13
If the emergency maintenance was to fix the lag, please mark it down as an epic fail.!
Lag is making the game (even more) unplayable this morning.
The Wrath of Lag Arc Survey >>here<<
Zero chance that the issues facing players this week couldnāt have at minimum majorly been prevented, with proper and experienced testers, looking beyond new content in terms of functionality testing.
The attitude of this wonāt break existing content has to go.
HORRIBLE LAG after the work this AM
Scopely doesnt do any testing; they leave that to the community
So Scopely, I'd like to introduce you to something real software companies call a 'test environment'...
So lets review this, shall we? You release an arc that requires hours every day to even have a chance to complete AND you āfixā a latency issue by making it worse.
Just curious: when do we go on Scopely payroll as beta testers?
If scopley were Windows, i be rolling it back a couple of updates š¤£
Worst part is that players have been detailing extreme severe lag yet scopely and community management are absolutely radio silent on this issue
It's hard to believe any of these clowns still have a job.
Having been a paid Alpha/Beta tester in my youth, it's not like the companies ever listened to what we said anyway.
That would require staff,,, they can not even afford support ppl to answer questions, or read this discord
It takes me to an alliance starbase base too, itās not mine because I donāt have one š¤£
Radio silent but they are awake enough to put slowmode into place.. š so typical
Can we have a toggle as to whether tha game starts with AC or GC by default? or at least just go back to how it was where it stayed where you last had it set to?
When I saw that emergency maintenance was in place to improve latency... I assumed it was to reduce it... Not make it longer
Got server error saying it can't communicate but still took the credits but didn't give me the rewards
I had exact thing happen to me on omega dust pull, now no currency to buy mirror dust pull š”
me and my mates on 711 are losing a bunch of currency pulling chests but getting nothing but an error message. we lose the currency but dont' get the rewards. Iso, away teams, xindi scraps, you name it, across the board
You really did something great this time Scopely - Slowing down the pace of everything in the game - Great thinking - we love wasting time for game to react especially when claiming things.
Review š© š© š© š© ( 4 out of 5, only reason for not 5 is that it is possible to login)
Is this a new crossover?? They replaced the servers with Slowpoke from PokƩmon?
honest question now guys....because I have checked with a few peeps...
Was the fix to instal some latency to opening bundles because we weren't having issues until AFTER the emergency maintenance
Failure
Hello I need help bc yesterday I did the update abd you charged me fore me 53.76 fore the update I can provide screenshots
we get paid in emergency field rations
@tidal notch Do you see all the issues with chest claims? Credits and loot being taken but no rewards given due to "server communication error"
which one of you bright Scopely sparks thought that locking your crews out for even longer with the new AT missions was good game dseign?
I don't defend scopely much, but the rewards on these are worth the longer time.
Think hammy covers the night shift but @raw fiber is better anyway š
okemergency fix is making thngs worse even loosing rss
Remember when you guys said the game was unplayable before? now scopelys gone hold my beer
#FreeDTI #NoCompromise You've made the game even worse with your emergency non-fix. You continue to make the game worse and can't even fix basic lag. Everyone put your wallets away unless you enjoy paying for displeasure.
Bring back the chest summary windows, while more clicks- it worked better, was faster, and we could actually see what we got.
This fix has made it so much worse for lag
I'd like to introduce our new game developer and moderator, Sir Laggy McLagerson
Dont know the Problem of you guysā¦. Game is working perfectly for Scopely⦠Money Money Moneyā¦..
Who cares the Problem of Playersā¦. Pfffff š š
Man thank God I didn't wake up to find the game off line so I could set my shields for the day before work...and have to leave before it came back online....you only gave that person a 60 minute ceasefire shield.
Game has started stealing currency again @tidal notch @raw fiber
And starter chests for armadas.
<@&509690795536941056> each chest and refinery pull takes 10-15 seconds and half the time i am getting a purchase did not go through message
Lager? šŗ
The lag has been "meticulously balanced" between all servers
I am over a hour just to get my daily refinery pulls right now.
i don't know whether to laugh or cry anymore. producing so much crap at once is really an art
This situation reminds me of a skrillex song -- sounds like an MRI and can kill you
To say he is just slow isn't PC anymore, so I had to give him a reason
Maintenance seems to have done the exact opposite of what it was supposed to do...
after about an hour getting 1/2 way through trying to open my daily chests, now everything i open just gives an "unexpected server error"
Horrible lag. Can usually get through but not today.
Can't login now
Takes your credits but get nothing
Yep, login failure has returned
The worst most incompetent staff I have ever seen. That goes all the way up The chain and down to discord staff., unbelievable.
Aaaaaaaaand its down again without notification.
eu 121
it's part of the performance update....
amazing update
every screen - just got kicked out cant log back in, they take it down?
omg so lagey 114 this worset update ever
Going to be real easy to only get 5 points every 7 days on this one.
can't log in
Anyone else getting this message?
EVERY! SINGLE! CHEST! NOW!
Everyone isā¦.smh
<@&509690795536941056> Serious question: Do you have 1 or more software engineers who are disgruntled? It seems like one or more of them are intentionally breaking stuff. Have you considered the possibility of intentional sabotage?
After update s70 real laggy
How broken is the game in EU right now ?
Scopley is a marketing company. So there is that. Perhaps that explains why everything is touted with bells and whistles, and never actually for the experience provided.
Impossible to claim anything and frequent crashing on s80 (us)
it gets worse with every update
I don't believe anyone on discord here is to blame. The people here are the public-facing individuals who have to deal with everyone's attitudes -- whether warranted or not.. but it's misdirected at them instead of the suits at scopely because those suits are hiding in their offices under their desks right now.
Maintenance that broke the game further... my decision to stop spending is looking better and better daily
Still getting booted, getting unable to log in errors, and when I am able to get in, it takes minutes for a single click to register <@&509690795536941056> - I thought that hot fixes were supposed to, ya know, fix things?
From my entire alliance.. thank you for doing that update, it was horrible before but now it's horrific. Great job!!
Whats wrong?? š¤£š¤£
being a 7-8 year old game, the code base is probably a steaming pile of donkey dung at this point and fixing it would take way too much time
Wait... You actually think they have more than 1 engineer?
they go in to fix an issue and make it 50 times worse. i cant even log in
what was the point of the maintenance?
Good question!
wear me compo
must be a HUGE compensation chest....
Whatever you've done to fix the fix, needs fixed
Good morning. Iām having the same problem. I will post a screenshot
Basically unplayable, will try again later
I love this they take your credits that you earned. Donāt give you the stuff you buy in different refineries and on top of that they keep kicking out of the machine wonāt let you log on and you lose credit for a vent you canāt finish.
Itās getting beyond a joke this
Of all the games I play, and I play many, this one is absolutely positively ran THE WORST, with less compensation.
I better get a free ship
Canāt login to game
Cant log back in, can't finish event. What a great fix they did.
No Shield for you!!
Maybe we should all mutiny the game!
Canāt login - gets stuck at 66%
3 hours ago finally received the update so that the event button works again....happy...then suddenly the shotdown comes...everything dead š Yeah, Scopely will fix it!
Canāt log in too
Canāt log in
Fix it or comp everything max pulls on everything they are missing
No one can, they fixed the latency. No one can log in so no latency! š¤£š¤£š¤£
Cant experience latency if you cant log in! FIXED IT
I had zero problems before last iOS update š
Broke, broker, brokergeddon.
Can't log in... can't do events... I also can't support this dumpster fire ARC
can't log in either
Same can't log in
I am sure they can squeeze out a Realta for you. š
Is this joke nothing is working I can't even do dailies because hostiles are not counting towards them
I didn't sign up for beta testing lol
Wonder what comp will be? 1000 emergency rations and 2 shards of badgey?
A serious idea, but give it a chance. How many issues there have been recently between DTI, insane requirements for the arc, promises of 'less farming' then introducing super heavy farming arcs (quality vs quantity v2 vibes) I feel like a lot of the community feels like Scopely is acting in bad faith. As a way to show that money isn't the only goal, how about instead of 'yet another not that meaningful comp chest' this time you give players a token that can be redeemed for a $100 pack. Let's be fully honest, the vast majority of those packs are nowhere near worth the money, and you wouldn't actually lose that much compared to the amount of people that are inevitably going to stop playing due to the cascade of issues. Take a solid moment to read through the comments here, dumpater fire they may be, and look at the general sentiment to how people view Scopely as a company. And ask yourself, of that negative reputation worth it? Look at every time you've done a sponsored video for.a game channel and read the replies to the creators comment with a link to the game. Ask yourself, in the grand scheme would a single free $100 pack to the playerbase kill your game? Or maybe would it help earn back the trust of your players while you try and fix whatever the hell this is becoming?
This is a weird way to keep me from building the free relativity
You've gone from lag when trying to collect to errors while trying to collect. This is the wrong direction:
Game broken again. Can't log in, I was resetting because I couldn't collect anything. Scopely, you messed it up big time with this ARC: New Bugs, still have a bunch of old bugs, endless grinds that does not take in account quality of life. This arc SUCKS!
Anyone else lose credits while seeing this error? I tried making a purchase in the Augment faction store and poof...no favor and missing credits.
Can we just go back to patch 77 S31? Happy to do that one over again rather than continue with this absolute garbage.
<@&509690795536941056> @raw fiber @tidal notch really funny that as soon as it directly impacts purchases they get their bottoms up. But again they miserably.
Shut the game down and move on you wonāt be able to fix anything by not breaking another bit and this is like a Perpetuum Mobileā¦
Still wondering that there are players buy that great stuff
Getting worse instead of better⦠a perfectly Scopleyād update.
You honestly think that they are actually going to fix something. Theyāre sitting there laughing at all of us!
We are going to need an emergency fix to fix the emergency maintenance.
It has taken me 4 times longer to do my refines than normal slow.
No more money Scamley, until you fix this dumpster fire on a runaway train.
Wow, now i cannot even get into the game. Bravo scopley
This is truly rubbish
Multiple players in my alliance cannot log in, they need to be extending shields <@&509690795536941056>
what did they mean by emergency maintenance...
<@&509690795536941056> What about a big compensation?
- Cannot login anymore
- Away Team Research didn't count for Priority 1:Unlock uncommon assignments (about 5.5k Pioneers crests vanished for it)
- cannot keep up in Events (800k Traits for away team SLB) and got to go soon.
forget the worse lag, now the game says unexpected errors when i try to pull daily, purchase failed to go through.
Server 26 same canāt login
It was merely "urgent" maintenance that now created the emergency...
Game just froze on a menu and now I can't log back in, GG a MU trip I guess
same , horrible
They NEED to throw bubbles on everyone since no one can log in
Friendly spoken.. this season gives so far the worst experience since long.. and this in 2 aspects.. the Nummer of Bugs and problems seems to be Endlosschleife.. if scopely has no time to test a Release thenbthey should not Release it.. and secondly the mecanisn of this Release is endkess Frustration grinding.. the New augment zone is a pain in the
a s s. In Addition the complete Story of that Release is stupid bring and oay to play mostly.. time to reconsider playong that game
I already had an hour long golden bubble
there is no level of compensation that will be enough (or at least, any compensation that they do give us will be pitiful in comparison the pain caused)
Feel sorry for those that actually pay money to play this game.
<@&509690795536941056>
Saw the announcement but the situation is even worse than it was before, with double charging occurring almost constantly, short list of issues:
-The āFactionsā section of the daily pulls has taken more than 45 minutes and Iāve been unable to complete pulls due to ādouble chargingā issues.
-Minimum lag per chest is 10 seconds for a successful pull.
-Maximum recorded lag is 70 seconds for a failed pull before it timed out.
-Failed pulls are charging, requiring a second payment. On the Ex-Borg section alone I saw double charges on almost every selection, and on daily or weekly limited pulls like the Vindicator this is a critical issues for growing players.
-Failures appear to occur most often on Menu items with a section selection (Aka selection option then choose how much to spend). Nearly every attempt failed / timed out.
-Once you crash, which you will, you canāt log back inā¦.
Personally Iām going to need to place tickets for double charging on the ExBorg and Vindicator due to either extreme cost or weekly limits on resources but whatever āfixā was made needs to be rolled back.
good their rng number generator only provided 4 hours of service shield again... surely enough time for everyone to get logged int
Canāt even get into the game now
They will be many players, who quit the game. Less Money for Scopeless. A good thing.
are we there yet?
Hope we will get compensation for not being able to finish events!
@raw fiber shield extending please
Ill expect the event rewards I am missing out on. Or no more $$$ for you!! I spent 100 this month. Regret it.
Hey scopley can I buy some pot from you guys? Cuz you must have some good stuff if you think your hotfix this morning addressed the lag issues... they're worse if you haven't figured it out yet...
Iād say, easiest thing to do short term is to revert the update using a backup
Then fix the update on a beta server and actually do PLAYTEST beforehand
You donāt need shields bet you donāt get any loot either.
But you should feel relieved that you donāt have to access that me$$
Can't complete event daily tasks, Can't login
Rabble rabble. Garbage game has garbage rollout every month.
Several People are Typingā¦..
Not the only one that canāt log in as well. Lol
I will never play another scopely game again, just the worst ever.
Jimmyāll fix it š¤Ŗ
Yay ! Can't log back in !
This is actually a good thing folks! Since we cannot log into the game and complete events scopely will have to give us a comp chest! But waitā¦the comp chests always underwhelm⦠š¤š
Since the Saudi take over of Scopely itās been god awful
can't pull boxes, conveniently right in the middle of syndicate event and if this goes much longer it will make it so people can't reach the next F2P tier. Suspicious as always
Cannot login server 35 currently. Was in. Now not in. Not in at all.
Why would anybody spend after DTI fiasco? I can't understand.
Ridicolous, every day is worst
Canāt login here š”
Not a good thing to tick peeps off
Shout-out to the maintenance team. Great work people!
Scopely do not have a clue and you know - they don't actually care until players stop buying stuff from the store. Just boycott the game for a week or so and let them feel the financial pain.
Server 40 took a dump
And you really think it's going to magically be working in less than an hour?!?
yh trying to login to do events now cant
Borg refinery took my raw then failed. Lost 550k inert
Many people are seeing the same login issue, they say update is on its way in various platforms stores. Donāt quote me on that.
They magically made it x10 worse in less than an hour, so why not?
If you haven't learned yet that they don't care as long people keep spending they are happy
Even the website!
@tidal notch I had 2900 Fed credits disappear when I tried to buy a couple BPs... it took the money then gave the "transaction did not go through" error. Where can I report that to get my credits back?
Communication would be professional
Still wondering what they need that q&a on Monday for.
They should ran some AI on this chat and gather the feedback.
And on the other hand in every normal company the responsibles would have been fired for not being able to provide a fix.
They should Google Red Adair
This is ridiculous we are all spending currency in everything and not getting anything for it... there is a word for it... fraud
Usual crĆ ppy maintenance, nothing working after it. Game crashed, wonāt let any of us back in. Loads to 66% and says retry. Alliance members having same issue.
It looks like Scopely has managed to deal the death blow to the game. Congratulations on that.š¤®
are we there yet?
If people are currently experiencing latency and login issues, what was the emergency maintenance for? My guess is another nerf.
#FreeDTI
We can blame them for a lot of things but this š
I was beginning to think Iād been blocked for giving poor feedback in their forms.
Great job fixing it all.
Scopley says: Stop all this complaining you silly cash cows and keep swiping those cards!!
Wrath of Khan? WRATH OF PLAYERS!!!!
I know this is out of order the same just happened to me in lots of things
wrath of DTI?
Wrath of Scopley
Proper testing in a test environment before sending updates to production would be the proper way of doing business. In all the years I worked IT, I never saw such incompetence in pushing out updates without proper testing. When I was working IT for a major corporation this type of Mickey Mouse programming, and lack of testing would have shut us down.
Canāt log in or finish events. Lovely!
So interesting
I think I'm not speaking only for myself, but Scopely you should sit down for a moment and stop coming up with new content all the time, instead take your time and clean up the technical mess, because it seems in that aspect you are laging behind the content.
We're aware of the latency issues you're experiencing in the game, especially when claiming chests, making a purchase, or targeting hostiles. <-- basically anythign to do with playing the game. Oh and while you're at it we've just shut down our servers too
Probably already mentioned, but lag and connection issues since last update and hotfix. Now web store will not load.
They are testing on the players, why spend time and money on test environment, you are being ridiculous.
10 minute free chest...takes 30 mins to open
Ok, I speak as though no one has complained yet. I have played this game for quite some time and I have looked forward to the day they did Wrath of Khan month. And by far this is the worst roll out I think I have ever seen. I am currently blocked out of the game, events were all screwed up. For the love of Star Trek, what are you guys doing over there at Scopely.š¤¬
Iām not be able to log inā¦
Same here
Looks like time to check in on my Clash of Clans game. Hardly ever a problem there.
We want Free Khan in compensation chest
Canāt log on whatās going on
People assume that the game updates are a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually, from a nonlinear, non-subjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey... stuff.
Already have him, how about a free Ent-E for everyone?
Applied update login still broken. Good olde Scopely, their theme should be ābreak š©ā, by limp biscuit.
Scopely āfixedā the lag issues. Canāt have lag if no players can get in!
The compensation chests that are going to be due is genuinely staggering....got booted, couldnt log back in, when I finally did the BP event was gone, the vindicator and the cube events were gone....and the clock is ticking to finish them.....OMG Scopely what the actual heck are you doing?
A Useless PVP FC? No thanks š give something valuable
I need 50 Krencha bps as compensation
Will we ever have an update with zero bugs or issues??
I want MontalKHAN as a ship commander
After today's maintenance š
Every arc is destroying the game more and more
This is the most troublesome update Ive seen in this game
I can't even express what I think of this arc and it's technical quality because this discord server blocks all the words that come even close to what I want to say.
It's a good thing we just had maintenance to fix the game, it would be a shame if it went down..............
Hey Scopely. Congratulations on ruining the game. I think I speak for everyone when we tell you that you took something that was actually fun, and you made it an absolute pain to play. It's no longer fun, and I don't know that I will be playing anymore, and I surely don't want to support this behavior with any more purchases.
Completely unable to log in. This must be costing Scopely a small fortune. 
<@&509690795536941056> Not going to get all my events completed before reset, better be compensated
Same here playing on server 29. Glad the sun is shining tho. Happy Friday!
their authentication system for players is down, so you can't login to the game or webstore.
<@&509690795536941056> How long does it take to make an official announcement?
Cannot login at all
I remember the ā quality before quantityā pledge Scopely made. šš¤£š
With the Bugs of this month i await not less than A epic ship or FC Khan + a free Seat as compensation ššš
The Game not working again. š©
ongoing login issues
@raw fiber what all are you going to do for players who are not able to finish the events/battlepass because your game is crashing, unstable, unable to log in, etc? I think a free battlepass bonus, like last month, would be great compensation for all the bugs and the news being created.
gold shields are down. n0 one can log in. this needs fixing immediately <@&509690795536941056>
Standard english to german:
Maintenance => Wartung
Scopely to German:
Maintenance => Verschlimmbesserung
Login failure
As opposed to the usual number? Lol
Scopely hat die Bugs gefixed...man hat uns Bugs erfolgreich entfernt
Game is fixed
Guys log in now. Nope
Congratulations Scopley, your Emergency repairs have really fixed everything. Now Nobody can log on. Brilliant!š¤£
Login Failed. too much EE Augment grind going on...
Yes, I agree. The game is getting more and more buggy the longer it goes on. It's about time they finally took some time to get the game running properly again.
99 bugs in the game code, 99 bugs in the gaaaaameā¦.. take the game down, do a hot fix, 9542054893689035748432849054378445 bugs in the game code
To be fair, they're trying to give new content every month. Maybe it's time to slow that down to every other month, with the months in between focused solely on bug fixes and QoL updates.
This is useless. I now canāt even get on the game!
Great job Scopely, really well done....if my team deliver this kind of work, I fire them allš”
I'm guessing I wont be getting my RSS returned if I get raided while I can't log in š
New ship/s in Archive will be ok š
I didn't recieve my last compensation and now this. Big improvement on lowering the interval of the game issues
time to play someth... sunuvablip!!!
are we there yet?
<@&509690795536941056> Can you ask them to stop touching the code? Every time they do it gets worse. May I suggest outsourcing? šµāš«
A scopely Haiku.
Failure to Log in.
Alas, the failure is not mine.
Compensation Chest.
has anyone been fired yet?
Server 51 is downā¦ā¦ again
How are we supposed to finish events when the game is down all the time?
so socpey going fix the game or what high funey when they just called for survey feed back thik you can gues what meow told them about thire up date
I would give Scopely a good point. Giving work to these developers saves us from them. Imagine them programming self drive vehicles or medical equipments.
How many have mining ship out, and canāt get them home because of the issues. Are they comping use lost mining material because when we log on they will most likely be destroyed. š I know Iām going pirating when I log onš“āā ļø
Wow great fix scopely. Can't log in at all now
Why dont you guys just push the $99.99 Prime The game will start Pack!
Can't log in......Thanks Obamna
I didn't notice double charging till I hit an item I only had enough of to buy once.
So I have no idea how much I lost, I got probably 10 of the server communication errors on different things, just hit the button again, as I was doing other stuff IRL while collecting my boxes.
So I'm going to lose massive amounts of stuff and Scopely won't make up for it.
I know I lost DTI creds on Dajash pulls and continuum creds on chaos but other than that who knows.
And Scopely wins in the end.
After today's maintenance š
Im sure they will fix this right? Lol š
Iām not bothered about new content! I just want a game I can play. I canāt do everything already!
āWeāve heard you and in response we are going to run another Quiz!ā
Same as everyone canāt log in some have shields down
Place a ticket, I plan to, once I can log back in š
They better fire everyone and hire real professional engineers and programmers!
Thanks brokely just take the game down for a week and fix all the issues
Imagine the game is broke forever!
Going to miss event completions, not happy š¦
This is what happens when you let the Marketing Department make game-play decisions and not the coders.
Soā¦..used a bunch of multiphasic credits and got nothing. Fantasticā¦..
This is unacceptable Scopely
Great job Schmedlaps! locked out of the game.
Still can't log in on 91
Yey, I have time to play Wolrd of Warcraft agin! š
Looks like it may be time to do a charge back on my last purchase since the service I paid for isn't actually available. Maybe affecting the bottom line will get $copely's attention? <@&509690795536941056>
Well the good news is, they finally gave everyone a break from the ridiculous new grinds.
#FreeDTI
Scopely represents the largest consolidation of failures sitting before a keyboard ever.
This should be in the Guinness Book of World Records
I like that a "hotfix" is really a "hotfail"
Is there a FTP version for this prime? I refuse to waste more money for more broken contentā¦
https://tenor.com/view/server-moment-gif-3805998341010177125 - live look at the hot fix this morning
They are not capable of programming anything, mabe they should try something else .....behind a garbage truck for example....
Dune: Awakening is coming out next month. Looking more and more like it's just time to move on.......
Now we need some substantial compensation, not just small bites and pills to fobbing off customers.
Thats an insult to garbage truck drivers man.
Get home, planning to do events. Maintanace going on. Try to start doing the crazy grind events, lagging and cant log in.....
I finally got PIRATES: live the life , and TEMPLE OF ELEMENTAL EVIL running on my laptop. No credit card needed
WARNING: Anything that you try to collect at a cost, be they recruitment shards, BPs, etc. are at high risk of taking the currency then throwing the "transaction did not go through" error. You lose the currency and don't get the loot.
DO NOT DO any currency based transactions for the time being.
Mining not scoring
Im in a game right now that has a discord channel for Bug/Issues. An IT rep is the mod. He/She immediately goes in and fixes issues as they arise. No stupid tickets that are a pita to enter.
Hey Scopely!
Anyone else getting this message
Everyone š¤£
it's back
Resepkt Scopely. With every maintenance, with every new update, the quality of the game gets worse.
When will you realize that you have overstepped the mark and greed for profit has taken over. Your product no longer matches the exaggerated prices. You are well on the way to turning a cash cow into a poor dog.
It really is an indictment that you are making here.
And the worst thing is that your @tidal notch <@&509690795536941056> have to pay for it.
oh yes, please don't forget how many comp. chest you already owe us.
Not getting anywhere
F2p have to pay double to start the game. This was thier plan all along to finally drive off the free players for good. š
How about my slb ???? How we gon score points now ????
This new loading screen when entering a system, is effecting response time. When your ship icon flashes red, you have seconds to respond. This screen provides a unfair advantage to the attacker.
Sir Pecs-A-Lot wonāt let me in the game. He just stands there, taunting me. š¤Ø
At this point, I think 100% of the player base would support a freeze on new content until old, redundant detritus is removed, and stabilty is introduced to the platform.
I cannot log in at all ... 𤦠š
are we there yet?
Seriously I am able to hit hostiles but they are not scoring for events, can't complete the Voyager event now
Sanitation Engineers.
Can't log in now.
Can someone please wake up the doorman so we can get into the game?
This message is inaccurate:
Clearly you didnāt buy the prime to keep playing
lol
Yay! I got in the game! However, I can't get hostiles to score for my dailies. Great job!
Gotta say, this is one of the worst faceplants by scopely in a really long time.
This channel is not useful as the team never bothers to fix anything anyway. If its not broken then scopely can break it for you
@tidal notch @raw fiber Tried claiming rare wrath credits, loot gone, no credits or rep received and tried to purchase a favour in the augment store, credits gone nothing unlocked 
I figured it out - @tidal notch canāt answer us because theyāre too busy running on the wheel that powers the servers
Same...
Scopley making updates
Give them some credit, it's not quite as bad as the time they accidentally reset like 60% of accounts back to level 1 though them doing that again trying to fix this wouldn't surprise me at all š
was able to log in, did syndicate pulls, nothing counted for event and god knows if i actually got it. the popups said yes but I doubt it
New rule. Need to pay $20 to be able to log in at peak hours. Scopely prime
Two Borg Armadaās that didnāt complete because of the lag. Got the whirly circle and no ships moved in to the solo. I lost my directives and because I didnāt complete the solo I canāt do a major upgrade today. Thank you very much, Scopley.
Still stuck on Social Authentication step on iOS on startup
great news all I just found out my 25yr old computer can play game of thrones winter is coming on a web browser better than my 2025 1 week old new phone can play stfc think it's time we all start evaluating our own gaming experience and going with what works (might be this game or a different game) could be different for everyone rofl
Quiz: if you were as competent at your job as Scopely employees are, what would happen to you?
I played this game. Events are better then here.
Now the Vindicator event is gone
So I expect we will get the reliant for free as compensation considering the complete mess of this ark.
Events are not scoring now....
Scopley has left there Network so exposed, it is now under a DDOS attack . This is funny I have never seen a gaming company with so little IT security knowledge. You don't ever announce on a public Discord server that you have latency problems.
In all seriousness this is totally incompetent
The game was hit by a D7
This will never change, seriously never. Why are we still playing? They are so disconnected.
@rigid vapor why did you tell iOS users to download a patch to fix something that wasnāt broken, only to have your patch completely BORK the game?
You are failing at your ONE JOB. At this point, I canāt believe thereās even a beta test group.
I put a ticket in but don't expect a response because i rarely ever hear back from them. ticket just gets closed
https://tenor.com/view/zoidberg-futurama-slinky-gif-26662562
Devs with he server atm
No Points in the cube sbl....
Fix it
Can we get Peace shields while we cannot log on? š
Strange. Considering there's serious money backing Scopely's parent company.
I would be promoted to the strategic marketing and content planning team like everyone else has....
Reapiring the game on PC seems to do the job. I just got in
it back up, how good it will beis anyones guess Qapla'
<@&509690795536941056> Some of the events like Apex and Cube are missing.
Others like the BP one aren't scoring....
Server 105: Since Scopely didn't care to apply another shield, we have an alliance (VIZ) raiding people unable to log in. THANK YOU Scopely!
And after ALL THESE BUGS we won't get as good compensation as the Treasury banner bug comp was. I promise that.
Still broken and still donāt have the chest we were promised so we can finish the arc missionsā¦
COMPENSATION.
A wild @tidal notch has appeared with an update! just need to you ensure we get al of today's event points / loot / BP points / Meta points as a lot of people can't complete the events due to maintenance, game falling over & scoring issues.
You will receive 10 parsteel and 5 trilli
Congrats , you guys managed to break the game completely .
Wasn't great after uodate. But now is broken completely . See comp chest coming ....2 officer shards and 12 hours shield
This game is an abusive relationship!
@tidal notch what about all of the people who were raided because they couldn't log in? what kind of compensation will they get?
Donāt forget the single realta BP
@nova ermine Savage games has alot of money but they're not going to invest it in a losing venture. Paramount is just a sponsor that collects money from the copyrights. So there is not partner in this situation that will invest in an old game that is starting to losing money.
Even the game is sick of Scopelys BS and decided to retaliate š¤£
#FreeDTI #ArcFail #ImNotSpendingAnymore
FIX THE LAG!!!!!!!!!!
They are trying to give us 4 hour shields, like they think they will fix this in 4 hours
They wouldnāt be losing money if they did things right. They obviously donāt know how to use continuous integration, regression testing, or rollout simulations. Theyāre failing at every aspect of competence a coding company should adhere to.
The game is unplayable why don't you go into maintenance mode until everything is fixed the events are about to start that will give something then
The Saudi Arabian Investment Fund is an owner. MBS controls it. If he was willing to buy a fading football club (Man U), he should put some money into this game. š
please stop trying to fix the game ,your making it worse all the time
What nonsense is this? I open them wherever I am normally. Is the what they spent time on instead of fixing the billion and one issues.
Itās my new loading screen when it lags. More useless tips to come
PREPARING
They need to focus on the gane not on new content ....
New content that cannot be used, missions that cannot be finished . Requirements for new events are ridiculous ....400-500 hostiles to finish .
Nice speaking with someone who knows about gaming companies. I'm a disabled Ubisodt former IT manger.
SCOPLEY: Stop adding new content. Spend the next 3-6 months bug hunting. We would all like to see the existing content fixed and corrected, and a serious bug hunting done. We would stay for something like that. But that requires you to listen to ALL players and not just the whales who are bored. You just made them MORE bored by breaking everything.. again! Quit making videos and make with the bug fixing!
Ubisoft is just as bad, see The Settlers
Even Xsolla is broken. Great job Scopely. You may lose me permanently. Unbelievable. Iād curse but your ears are so tender.
Apparently they are not doing repairs āby the bookā rather hours are days and days are months.
It's an absolute disaster. You can't even collect chests anymore, let alone claim the daily rewards in a reasonable amount of time. What already took far too long now takes 5-6 times longer.
<@&509690795536941056> FYI I think you sent out the wrong kind of shields for those 4 hour peace shields, you overwrote my blue shield with a 4 hour shield!!!
now events aren't scoring, didn't notice until I killed about 10 hirogen for Voy sms
okay now system I have unlocked are locked again even thought I have a ship in one. WTF Scopley. I was trying to send another ship but nope not happening.
Scopely didn't make a bunch of money from the launch of this arc so they weren't able to afford thier bandwidth this month. š
#FreeDTI
I kinda love this.
Still not fixed this is embarrassing
You guys really need to learn how to use NUnit and Unity Test Framework. You also need to learn how to use something like GitHub Actions and Azure DevOps testing framework to implement a standard core test suite, a regression test suite, a build test suite, and a deployment simulation network. Because what youāre doing now shows us you have almost no testing whatsoever which is why you keep releasing junk code. Either that or you arenāt maintaining your test suite(s), and are almost certainly not using them to drive your developmental processes.
You might try doing a staggered testing approach. At the minimum the standard core suite (which you actually have to maintain and grow) and the regression test suite need to be run on every commit to the repository whether you make an actual release or not. At least two weeks before a planned release, you need to run the build test suite to test that it will actually build and for each platform. And that almost always should be coupled with multiple network deployment scenarios, testing both infrastructure, and logicals.
QA should be able to run manual build tests, and view all commit test results logs per commit. Actually monitor those things. You know like put human eyes on it. Prioritize some stuff. You know like actually do your jobs.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand now i have an un-clearable news notification which prevents me from sending any alliance help
access helps from the alliance menu š¤¦āāļø
do we get free trssruey compo
Will I get my lost currencies? I'm not interested in compensation chest what doesn't compensate the lost things.
I think scopely will need to REALLY up their compensation chest contents.. Clearly we're experiencing a much bigger event.
@slender apex I would have have agree. I have watching the whole industry go to crap for 10 years now. All most gaming companies care about is money and vacation time.
4h shield really? too short.
So far we have the incompletable event comp, the iOS comp, and now a comp coming for whatever today broke
@tidal notch This emergency maintenance has cost people a ton in in game currency. The popup unexpected Error remove ingame currency without completing the purchase. There should be a major comp chest for this in the form of at least two chests in each category in game purchases. This is getting rediculous.
yeh sending alliance helps isn't really the issue tho, is it? another iteration of new bugs with no fixes for the slightly less new bugs. thanks for the workaround tho š
Maybe even a comp for the broken shop ? :D
... and its down again
<@&509690795536941056> why us?
remember everything I said yesterday, you once again proved me right...
G5 ship scrap, happening anytime soon? Should have already happen imo.
Is the currency actually just gone? I just spent 4 common splicers to get a double chest pull, it failed, and now they're just gone
4 hour peace shield is not going to help players who have already gone to bed as itās late here. Only to wake up and find their base empty
I put up a 7d shield yesterday -- is scopely dumb enough to replace it with a 4hr shield? or only unshielded bases will get a shield?
We're getting reports that people's blue shields are being overridden by Scopely's 4hr shield, even when the set shield was longer. WTAF?
Yup. I'm letting the team know how bad things are.
Still blocked for android š¤¢
at the mom we dont even have the 4 h shild ^^
They should overlap...
Scopely must give us now 10k compensation tokens for ts
They put up a 4hr Blue shield not the gold piece shield we usually get after maintenance
<@&509690795536941056> That's not happening. I've had people report 24hr shields being reduced to only 4 hours, and no yellow shield coming up.
If someone didn't have a shield up, this is a good thing to give them 4 hours. If they did have a shield up, for longer, and you're overwriting it, that's going to cause all manner of issues.
@tidal notch Tell the team to order out it's gonna be along day. Maybe have them take the server's down until they can get things stable.
US S31 is not showing any ceasefire shields.
Like the iso chain in the game, theyāre on a Failure Cascade.
At this point, roll back the server to the point of maintenance, give every player max rewards for a full day of events, plus refinery/faction rewards for their level.
You guys have really turned this game into a BIG steaming pile of Tribble turds... I mean we sat here and roasted you all for a load of bugs yesterday and you DEVs were like, HOLD MY BEER today, unreal
Really no point in giving out shields tho. Rss are useless now except for repairs. All new building /content are being monetised and cant be upgraded with rss. So whats the point in sheilding.
Please no, upgrades cost me trillions, I actually need my RSS š
Well just went to redeem my daily Monaveen for Syndicate and lost 200K without reward
like i said no shild from scolpy^^
I have heard this a lot. I did a double chest pull of the new common exchange and took my 4M loot and didnt give the reward
<@&509690795536941056> Multiple reports from members in my alliance losing tokens/etc in refinery/faction store, getting errors, but not getting the items. I'm recommending they stop using them for now, any chance for an in game announcement before everyone is screwed?
Would you please let a few more hamsters into the wheel? The game is running as smooth as tar around freezing point at the moment. š
Sent a friend request
How badly is Scopely breaking the game today? Better be one hell of a good comp chest
Thats probably a good call. I've seen other posts about this. I'll look to putting up a post.
Do an atomic rollback on the images for the deployments to the commit point this last update push is at. Reload the servers, do it as a phased rollout. Whatever your per server deployment rate is plus 30 for verification. Lock the game and roll out 1/4 to 1/2 of each server pool with that rollback like APAC US EU pools. Do in wave sets until all are rolled back to that commit. Can even do a binary push of a diff if you donāt want to spend the time to roll out the whole image from scratch per server. Sheesh! Just.. do something approximating skillful management of the situation! Heck, I donāt even care if you rsync the whole lot of āem! Just do some intelligent analysis and critical thinking. The road youāre on is killing your cash flow.
#stopthegrind, #fixthegame
If it ain't broke we can fix that - Scopely
<@&509690795536941056> No gold shields on 709, and players in my alliance are reporting all their regular shield timers were changed to 4h
Same everywhere it seems
how is this so broke, lol
Even dead bases of people who quit awhile ago have blue shields, so it's definitely everyone it seems.
Scopely
@tidal notch so nice that the 6 hours left on my 8 was reduced to a 4....
Set Gold shields and go to maintanance Mode Scopely
At what point the CEO can make the call to say : ROLLBACK we broke it.
I can confirm, we were given 4 hour blue shields that overwrote our Shields.
All of this is also assuming that they havenāt busted their database layer and that is why theyāre having so many problems. Theyāre decoupled somewhere inside. And I really donāt think they know how to fix it.
Is anyone keeping track of the number compensation boxes required, as I have run out of fingers and toes.
Lol, I thought the servers being down for 2 hours WAS the roll back!
<@&509690795536941056> would be great if we could get a heads-up once it's 'safe' to trade in stuff in shops/refineries /etc. again. One of my members lost Admiral recruit tokens during all of this without getting anything so everyone a bit cautious atm. An 'all clear' on that front would be appreciated
@raw fiber @tidal notch at this point u think they need to take the game down and fix it. Losing loot to game bugs, events not scoring.
4 hours of peace shied?
You really need 4 days because really - do you really expect this weekend to go well?
This has all been bad since #FreeDTI
And to think I filled out Rev's feedback form saying performance had been good - I see some dev at Scopely was like "Hold my beer!" š
I now need over 30 minutes for refining and haven't even got through the help. Now I have to quit my job to finish here š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£
All of this and I still have chests I just claimed still say they're available to claim, then tell me they were removed from the store, then still show me they can be claimed again. What a joke
Hey scope, the game is lagging bad. Server 26
Canāt even get logged in now.
This is also my sentiment š
I sincerely don't know when I'll trust refinery/faction pulls without losing currency
<@&509690795536941056> - I see that you all are on it. Game still bad for me, I dread my daily chest and refinary pulls today......very very slow.
@tidal notch still collecting all my daily chests, started the process 4 hours ago.....
You need to upgrade your internet, those phone modems just aint cuttin it
10 primes of your choice is about where we SHOULD be.
global reset on chest cooldown sounds appropriate whenever this is sorted
Fix your test suite if youāve got one. Update your test suite if youāve got one. Maintain that bad boy. Apply it to every commit that goes into your repository. Write the test for what it is that you want to have happen. Break that down into mechanical steps in the testing suiteās language. Run it in isolation standalone against the code base. Make everything pass by fixing the problem. Add the resulting test file to your test suite. Will be applied automatically if you make it so every commit runs against the test suite. Youāll know the minute something breaks. And you wonāt have such a rabbit hole to chase down. If you were applying this to your CodeBase, you wouldnāt be able to push major broken code like this. It would be technically impossible because the test suite would stop it and youād find out exactly what broke right then right there.
Gonna try and be calm and civil.
Where exactly does Scopley plan to hold accountability for the experience players have faced this week? Today is just the latest example of terrible player experiences. To be clear, weād love to know:
-steps being implemented today, to ensure no arc follows this bad release in terms of downtime, instability, and experience?
-internal accountability. There is zero chance someone didnāt raise concerns about this patch prior to release. If no concerns were raised, this is an ardent failure on the dev and ops teams. What steps are being taken to correct these failures going forward?
-compensation to the players commensurate with the misery experienced this week
<@&509690795536941056>
Yeah, that's not scopley way, we're the test suite
Still cant login after the maintenance
How about......... skip an arc or two and fix your faulty game??
The fact that scopely doesn't acknowledge most of the stuff that's wrong with the game, and has been wrong for years now, pretty much says it all. They don't care, they won't care, even when the game finally dies they will just move on to screwing another high value IP community.
Make no mistake about it. They don't care if the game goes under, they'll just buy another poorly coded mess and monetize it's brains out.
Sent you a friend request
Losing time on the incursion research buff like this sucks.
And yes, you can write a test suite to test your database layer as well. You can also write a test suite to test your build layer. You can also write one to test your deployment scenarios. And you can do it on a per platform basis, as well as a per Server pool basis.
If you do have a network deployment lab set up, and youāre actually using it, then how did this code get out here into the wild? How was it not seen before it was deployed that it would break like this, or that it had the potential to, break like this? This absolutely should have been caught in-house before it ever got to the players.
At multiple levels, if even half of what Iāve suggested to you was implemented or is implemented correctly and maintained, all of this wouldāve been caught before it ever went out the door. And that failure, right there, is the basis for why you should give one hell of a compensation chest to players. Own it because itās yours.
At this point I think we need a volunteer from every major city to organize a pub crawl for players. Just saying ...
Gonna take me days to get these timers back the way they should be.
How much of my loot are you going to steal today scopely?
<@&509690795536941056> how is the scopely team doing and when it will be fixed?
Like, why wasn't this rolled back within 5 minutes of the issue being realised until whatever changes could be tested properly?
Scopley just adding to mess so they hope you all forget about them adding cooldowns to the dti store. #freeDTI
We already know the next one in line is Pokemon Go
I am literally scared to actually try playing the game. I have already had multiple chest claims fail today, losing the resources and getting nothing in return.
Then stop.
Same, the fact that they don't have a proper transaction system is quite scary, almost stop playing the game scary <@&509690795536941056> Please reassure us that all lost currencies will be reinstated
The $copely team's doing fine, they're just taking it easy, ticking boxes here and there. They're so chill, they don't need to talk to the rest of us.
Oh shoot. They're going to murder PokƩmon go next? Ooof...now there's a community you don't want to mess with. There will be no honour or duty there....PokƩmon fans will literally tear your ears out of your head
Here is a look at the scopely employees reporting for work this morning.
I hope scopely would stop focusing on updates and just fix almost every bug in the game and then start updating it again
Outrageous use of logic. Red card. š„
And the last promise was quality over quantity, ...that went well
Be realistic here ladies and gents. Scopely simply doesn't care. They will start to care the moment you stop spending money. Stop spending money for a month or two and see how fast they start giving a crap.
Finally, quit with all the new economic microcosms and arcs. Spending an arc or two worth of time on fixing bugs that exist right now would not only be an excellent choice for the longevity of the game itself, but would also go a long way to improving Financial probabilities.
Good old scopely, pushing a bunch of crap nobody asked for without fixing anything. And then the whole thing crashes.
These are some of the best responses I've ever seen. The sad part is there's no chance they're listening to you or that something like this will ever be implemented.
Went down for maintenance, supposed to be fix but wasnāt, crashed for an hour, came back up for about an hour and crashed again. Story of the game really.
starting to think they put a new bug in daily just to watch the discord feed for entertainment
Call me old fashioned, but if you said you fixed something, it should probably work afterwards, not be worse
I'm goin back to minesweeper, at least that game works as designed.
This game felt stable a few days ago straight after the patch, until the Event rollout failed again, and it all turned to mush.
Ill go check tommorow and see will all these issues will be fixed
I love this game. I absolutely love this genre. I grew up with Star Trek. Itās part of my childhood. And I donāt wanna see something that purports to be representative of that world for me to enjoy destroyed because of an unwillingness to change processes, or to implement new ones for the betterment of both the experience and the product itself! Both of which directly affect the financial gainfulness of the product by directly affecting our willingness to spend.
@rigid vapor I think you are going to fire the programmer who does not blame the user...
Ive always said this game is a psychological experiment.
I'm strongly considering going back to Star Trek Online, at least that has actual content
Must be all our devices and computers that work on everything else. Can't be their code, dev processes, lack of UAT or QC. Just think if this is how they manage their product, how are they managing / protecting our data?
I'm concerned that there's an outbreak of peeps using logic. Red card. š„ This is $copely we're talking about....
Game is still a disaster
Love how we are now having latency issues on every task and screen. But no mention of the time sensitive grinding event that inolves us being QUICK enough to not get caught. Womp..womp.womppppp
Take down the servers till you can fix the chest lag issues.
Lol, Just roll it back already......
Scopely has conditioned us to look for Compensation Chests rather than fixes. If want fixes spending has to stop or it won't register to scopely that fixes are NEEDED!
This is the worst update I have seen. The lag is over the top. The faction store is nearly unusable.
Every moment that passes, more and more rewards and purchases are disappearing into the ether. It's unplayable. The only way to stop it getting worse is to shut the game off until you find an answer.
Wow the games broke worse than ever, slow doing every action, kicked me out now canāt log in again š¤¦
Slow mode enabled everywhere now. š¤¦
30 second to a minute wait for every click in a click happy game.
Anyone else remember when each vault in Fallout turned out to be a different horific experiment? It feels like that
This is now worse than the Windows 10 1809 update,
**They should consider a name change von Scopely to Screwupley - for transparency (latency) reasons! **
You know itās bad when one of the new features is tidbits of information on transition screens (you know, the screen that should be there for no time at all, but is there for seconds because of the lag which is exacerbated by the tidbits of info). Also there are FOUR lights
taken 2 hrs to get all my daily claims evning ones but got thire no thire 5 lights
Did you do that maintenance to make lag worse?
But now it's so broken we can't claim compensation chests š¤£
I just want to open my stupid chests.
have they fixed the claim all button on AI building for the trasport patterns bug from IA lauch?
in this game there are only continuous BUGS, the only pages that work very well are those of the shop
Whilst we're on this suibject... I like that there are less clicks when collecting chests and everything, especially resources..... BUT i want to see which officer shards i've gotten from a chest! now these just fly away and i've no idea what i've collected.... and don't think i've hit 1 lucky pull since this changed. Please change this back just for the officer pulls! I can cope with clicking 'ok' on these.
I think that's what they wanted as someone on my server actually wrote down what he was supposed to get and what his inventory was and was getting shorted daily.
the daily items collecting will be an evening filling task... š
You know it is messed up beyond hope when you spend money on a pack and it doesn't show up in game. But at least it charged my card
Please give me a 30 day shield so I can come back next month to see if things are fixed.
so "i'm playing" but every single claim is like 20 seconds
One hour and still not finished doing my daily claims, been kicked 3 times I donāt know what itās trying to load at 66% but whatever it is itās killing the game
So what do you think your social experiment is in 130 ?
I'm convinced that on 108 we have our feet tickled while we grind hostiles, not for loot, because if we or they stop we explode. š„
I don't know what you guys at @rigid vapor fixed, but it certainly wasn't what we all expected you to do...
The communication between the game servers and the store is clearly broken right now, that includes paid for items or otherwise. We need to sit tight and wait for this to be fixed, or you may lose stuff.
For the new augment loop, it'd be really helpful if we could reduce the pull cost and the loot dropped by 10x. The grind stays the same but G3 and G6 players don't have to worry as much about cargo space,
Is it fixed?
Or scopely make some new ugly arcs⦠put more grinds and claims in and most important⦠they fix things š
just shut it down with all those problems š
It's fine everyone....Scopely is INVESTIGATING. 2 days to fix a button....30 mins emergency maintenance to make the game worse....it'll all be ok once they're done with their INVESTIGATION.
Superhighways are also broken nowš¤¦š»āāļø
Even timers are messed up
One of the simplest things that you shouldn't have changed but you did is defaulting to global chat. It was much better when we didn't default to global chat. I think maybe you remembered where we were and just put us back to where we were
what comp? i still haven't seen the comp they mentioned 3 days ago
Take down the servers till you fix the lag and the chests
https://prnt.sc/q2Gv88HhLBdP Sopely could suggest to players to stop playing until the bugs are fixed next year.š
Hey Scopley the compensation for this massive "mess" better be huge. Worst I have seen.
the point of a game is to have fun, yeah, stfc is a time sink, but so long as it is fun to play people will do so.. this arc is not fun to play
<@&509690795536941056> I might be wrong but did you guys say be 4 hour golden shields? Not seeing them on s40. There are events that are effected by claiming.
if they take it down until they fix it, it will NEVER come back up
I can't speak for everyone, but the critical mass of my Alliance aligns with this sentiment
Last 4 hours are gone. What's another 4?
Do what you gotta do. Doesn't need to be soon. Clearly it's bad. Take it down and fix it
"taking it down" rarely helps fix anything. You need to identify the problem, then identify the fix, and that usually requires a live environment.
Ship XP not working any more now.
how has collecting the 10m/4h/24h chests become the most difficult thing in the world?
Not if they had their test environment set up it wouldnāt be requiring a live environment. Thatās why you set up test labs. For this very reason. So you can simulate everything from maximum network throughput to deploying an image to an individual server.
We're running an event that tells you to spend credits. Please don't spend credits.
So now they donāt want us to play the game.
How is the game worse today than it was yesterday? Yall need to take some of that whale money and hire ppl who know how to code.
Scopely is in big trouble with these critical bugs
I'm sure the 70s will keep them afloat. Those dudes will buy anything if you put it in the pack store
What a bag of garbage. If they werent making tons of money off addicted players, they might actually be embarrassed for releasing such a terrible product.
It's so broken for me right now it just errors out when I try to throw my money at them.
you know whats jokes, everyone knows dont push untested code on a friday, now all y'alls gotta fix the bugs before you can even begin your weekend š
Maybe put this in an in-game announcement so more people actually know? "...we advise players to halt all claims from chest pulls until the we can resolve the issue."
I've been trying to do my daily claims all day long. They still aren't done. It's an impossible task. Even when the game is fixed, my daily claims are going to be all over the place time wise, and some of them I haven't even been able to get to yet. The comp chest for this needs to cover a full day's worth of claims, across the board, along with the events for today, that i still haven't had the time to even get to because of this chaos.
Thats because it's broken right now, you claims are likely not making it into your inventory.
going on 49 minutes for me so far
This issue started around 3:00 AM CST for me. (Server error turning in Voyager Biotoxins. Turned in max amount, received nothing.
Think they owe us about 15 diffrent comp chests now this week alone
I hear any other game is nice this time of year š
Not really , only ops upgrades , the rest is basically garbage, plus I have been at this since itās inception, and itās turning to rubbish
š¤£
Turning. Its turned and needs putting down
While we're all here getting everything off our chest... Could you guys take a look at the issues with pips? š
Stfc is like this chat āslow is enabled modeā everything is so slow. Wtf
I still canāt login, everyone else in the same boat?
I'm in, but it's slow and painful. Hardly worth playing tbh
@tidal notch @raw fiber Unable to log in, like many other players. Extend shield till event reset tomorrow or something.
@tidal notch <@&509690795536941056> they should honestly be considering taking down the game for a few hours at this point. We have an alliance of 80 people and several don't have discord and I can't log in game to pass these along.
I love the new event, everything about it. I was not paid to make this statement but I would like to be. š
<@&509690795536941056> please post in galaxy chat in game. Not everyone is on discord
Can we get in game messages about the pulls or just take it down at this point please @tidal notch
Can you stop with the frequent announcements, my fingerās hurting from pressing the š© emoji.
Who would have thought that adding more and more bugs and ignoring them might eventually lead to this? š®
I knew they brought in the Death Star in this Arc
At this point, we definitely need some compensation chests, but I don't know what they can possibly give us to make up for the last 3 days. Maybe roll it into one comp chest and give out the May resources pack? Gonna be fun for them to figure that one out, lol.
Please don't make them do anything difficult. We know how that ends...
This is ridiculous. I try and schedule how things fall for max pulling and max benefit while ensuring I get play time in with real life demands. It's an inconvenience but truly... for an established game, why is this so fragile.
Scopely Shares would work, maybe 1000 shares each.
It will be a few field rations
Honestly - we need a complete unlock of the 3 new officers added this arc.
Instead of paying dividends, pay out primes. Lol.
At this point, free premium battle pass AND treasury unlock
I would accept the Aug rep to unlock Superior as compensation š
A 5 minute speedup and 3 shards of the officers, take it or leave it
We can only dream. I mean, Joachim sure because he's going to be free over time anyways, so that's a possibility.
I mean... I'd take it at this point. Would at least make this hostile grind a bit easier for those of us who don't have SNW Pelia.
Pathetic. Absolutely pathetic.
Anyone else just got a āWelcome Backā gift of a free battle pass?
More likely the pope rises from the grave than these lot give something like that out
