can't wait for the new reworked AT tasks with all the 10k tasks that were "free to play" achievable to go out the window š
It's the year of nickle and diming, didn't you know?
To be fair, that change was needed. You're talking the difference between billions and quadrillions.
It's the year of "why are our revenues declining" despite the obvious self defeating tactics
Of standard Dilith? and I didn't have it in the Q amounts.
I mean if it was something that gave some kind of unfair advantage, but thats really pushing things
well what would i do with quadrillions of dil š
i need quadrillions of parsteel and trit
dil is just a "what to do with that" ressource
even if it's not as useful as other resources, dumping quadrillions into the economy isn't good
The battlepass reward was giving millions of 1b tokens
How the h did they make such a mistake in the first place is the real question
This game doesn't have an economy. If it was like SWTOR and the gold became so useless players started trading with bought items only, and no amount of credit sink was fixing the issue, then yeah.
We are talking about an outdated resource I don't even use anymore and can't be traded except for already time restricted trade function I can't surpass anyway
It just sends a bad message, now if it was Q in lat, then yeah, I can see the issue lol
coffee mug stuck on the 0 key š
Now if incursions went by base raid scoring, and suddenly everyone had insane amounts, there could be an issue
but you pre broke that just in time
it would be an issue for the xslb, and if they return the scoring
would throw off leaderboards, and allow instant alliance level ups instead of gradual progression
Raiding doesn't touch tokens though, and even if someone popped them all you have to get through the parsteel wall first. Lots of things so broken in the game, this one would be pretty low on the list of things to really worry about
Well, given the rest of the game is broken and borderline unplayable, its a slap in the face when it shows the companys attention is on extra dilith passed around and taking it back rather than fixing the problems
os there even something after max level?
not to mention the legality of it is questionable, I was delevered something I didn't ask for nor paid for, I'm actually entitled to keep it, but its not worth making a storm over, its dilith
I more amazed at how fast they can write a script to correct ābugsā or āexploitsā that actually benefit the player base!!
But when itās an in game bug that hampers the playersā¦ā¦. Nothing!
Not a good look. š¤Ø
Yeah, there has been constant "oh this didnt pay out, contact support and we will fix it", however given the state of support and the game, I don't bother, it's not my job to chase things around
but when it comes the other way with a next to useless mat, they are on the ball taking back there mistake
easy by putting stuff out without testing or double checking stuff ya know the normal in this game do now apologize later attitude
Any update on merges moving forward now?
Thereās a merge pack for that.
I think it more that Scopely only tests the new code and doesn't do any sort of regression testing. At least that's my wife's idea after hearing about how things go for a few years now and her job is project managing for code development.
well we've seen lately thats they all about rolling things back if it helps players out but if it's something broken about the content we'll we just muddle through it while they "try" to fix it if they even can.
ya they strike me as well it doesn't blow up the servers its good mentality which is funny when it's said and I'm reading it back but not a great outlook when ya think of it. I just look at this situation and think back on a job I had 7 yrs ago being a quality control agent for a cable/internet company and say to myself man if I did 1% of what scopley is doing now at my old job I'd be fired and sued.
I think a lot of us used to be mad at the situation where we wanted to do something about it, but now we are all just exhausted and slowly fading away. It's like a relationship, if she cares enough to be mad you can still fix it, its when you screw up and she doesnt care anymore it's too far gone.
yep and they're ain't too many of us that care anymore because you only see the same people on here day in and day out when you see how many active players are playing game daily yet only see same 500 or so people daily in the discord ain't good results for do players care for your game enough to fight for it
Canāt hold it against them with the existing feedback culture - silence, lack of inputs, lack of recognition of issues or even for flagging them.
The decision to roll back researches is incredibly upsetting and I honestly donāt have any idea what was different about the cost. I spent hours doing research, simply because it was time to catch up, and now Iām going to have to do all that again. Hours wasted, and I wouldnāt be surprised if the difference was something stupid like a few thousand lat
How far back was this rollback?
Only the āexploitā research was rolled backā¦right??
I have the same in game notification. The most frustrating thing is how vague the statement is. They have not specified the nature of the bug/exploit. From Galaxy chat my understanding is as follows:
1 - the issue was that using the green 'Instant' button was subtracting Latinum but not materials such as Mirror Dust. No idea why this was not specified.
2 - It is only researches unlocked that way that will be rolled-back, together with (I think) any subsequent levels that were completed the usual way.
As far as I am aware, I have not used the green 'Instant' button for months, so I am not sure why I have a notification in my game news.
from what it sounds like the exploit research is being rolled back for those that did it. As well as any player who legitimately did same research without using the exploit during the same timeframe. Though for players who did it legally they getting refunded the cost and mats where as ones who didn't sounds like they just get rolled back and credited what lat they used @nimble pawn
@tidal notch might need to correct the %'s here.... doesnt add up
3.5% for each associated shard in that percentile per roll.
Which is 92.75% - closer, but still not 100%.
Even if you add the percentages from the text below that (which are described as a separate chance,) you don't reach 100%.
Scopely math lol
This just might be the straw that brakes the Camels back. I want to know why players are being penalized for something that STFC had openly admitted was there fault. This is just one more reason for me to have my account archived.
The cost showed all the mats when I did it. No way to control if it actually did take it on my end(or even know)
I would like to go ahead to claim the throne as KING of buffing a ship with my Cerritos and then accidentally suiciding my Cerritos on the target by not switching back to the other ship. The very WORST part about it is that I am sheepishly compelled to go look at the battle report to see that I did 120 big points of Hull Damage by smashing it against the target
You won't need a pitchfork... maybe a bunker to hunker down in š¤£
I see they like to delete messages as well. No free speech here I guess.
Think of it as a reset ... I am very frustrated and angry with a ton of what they have one, but this one really is the only move they can do. You had some people max out way too much for basically free and others who were not online so did not even get the chance. Not what we want moving forward.
This is discord not a democracy mate. Free speech does not extend to your conditional and at will membership in the server.
Regardless of your or my opinion of the matter
Neither is the ARC Choice Rewards
That reply doesn't make sense.
It is not a demo racy for us to ha e them in the game
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
Democracy freedom of choice by a group/nation of people to put into existence a law or statute. Which includes tool qol etc... just l8ke the war in gasoline vehicles.
English isn't your first language is it?
Just ignore and move on
"The team is still investigating the event rewards not paying out. If you are affected, please contact support and they will be able to assist. #š½-how-to-contact-support" @rigid vapor has provided better customer service in the past by identifying affected players and fixing the issue. Why is it incumbent on the player to report and struggle to get rewards in this instance?
Oh good now it relentlessly blinks and glows to make it as annoying and irritating as possible. Good job as always guys.
at least you see it lol. mine is still buried underneath the help button bug they have said they fixed the last 3 arcs
I reported last month about not being able to activate the redeem code and never got a response back, but they mess up and players get more than they should have they take it back fast, but yet they keep releasing things that are broken and the players have to deal with it. I feel like I am being punished for something that I did not even know about. If I would have known about the issue I would have maxed my ships, research and made OP's 63 which is what I have been pushing toward for the last two months as they keep adding more loops and 30 mins of clicking, so I am asking myself is it worth playing anymore if I just come to hangout with some cool players, we will just have to see.
Just a heads up I have decided to drop this game as an ops 69 player. Tedious required activities added each month. A company that views us as a turnip to be squeezed. It is a good day to be done.
Everything is soooo slow and soooo unresponsive in this game ⦠it is painful to play ā¦
Scopely just grifters now
Congratulations Scopely several of the 70+ players in my alliance are talking about quitting now! wtf 𤬠is wrong with you guys! We tell you we donāt want another stupid grind. You give us one, you take away aspects that were keeping players like choice rewards, all the work for emerald chain that we were told would carry forward and they donāt, officer depot tokens, for a couple of examples itās getting so bad that players that have been playing for 5 or more years are now done! Thanks for ruining a good game!
And letās not talk about how bad the rewards of G5 scrapping are!
I wonder if they think we're just overreacting
The āsupportā bot is totally useless, it is talking about milestones for an slb. So it has no clue whatsoever š”
Nerfed Battlepass
Nerfed Depot Tokens
Nerfed Choice Rewards
Released rubbish G5 scrapping
You fix player beneficial bugs in hours, yet take months to fix player impacting ones.
I'm done spending until you respect players more.
We cancelled Flashpoint can we please cancel Academy too?
It isnt a game anymore. It is broken crapware.
It should be reported to app stores for refusal to maintain it
#š -known-issues message So a new day, a new event, and a new bug. Color me not impressed, this is just the normality we've grown accustomed to now
Hereās some more āfeedbackā, Iām not spending $20 or $50 anymore on a battlepass that rewards me a trickle of officer shards and RSS. Remove the RSS and give us epic mats or choice rewards back and I would consider it. The battlepass is a joke now without choice rewards
battlepas not working
lag is so bad ... i completed these about 10-15 minutes ago ... still have yet to get credit for them
I don't think you understand the meaning of 'need'. The second Scopely puts out something that is beneficial to players, they Instantly start working on removing it.
I'm one of those
Claim your boldly go rewards to get your other event rewards
im sorry what ? that is beyond stupid to require that to be claimed - and yes, once i claimed boldly go, i got the other rewards ... so that is dumb if that is a change that was intended
Bring back choice rewards! 
Here's a question, Hey @finite mural do you think it's fair for players to be frustrated with the current release?
Iām done⦠skipping this dumpster fire of an arc and just doing dailies! To many issues in the game.
They will reset it anyway like emerald chain
Scopely's idea of an upto date server room š¤¦āāļø
I now count over 20 āknownā (and unresolved) issues since arc start.
This isnt a game. It is non funtioning software, aka crapware
So in the last eight days or so we have had the equivalent of $2,000 worth of events that were literally just "spend to complete". So I assume this means Scopely fully and confidently feels that the game in its current state is worth four figures a month from its players. That doesn't sound like it's something they're going to be fixing or making better anytime soon. Might be time to walk away. We're in the final "squeeze them dry and bail" stage of mobile games.
Digital slumlords
Meanwhile, the player's frustrations are met with condemnation and condescension.
Battlepass reset a few minutes ago.. seriously????????????????????
quite
#ā-official-announcements message
scopelys goal is āprotecting the integrity of the gameā?
I dont think i ever before read something so hypocritical
damn with everything else going on now they broke the bp.....
Which one? Aren't there like 47 of them now?
Far more
āWhile treating everyone involved fairlyā.
Totally shameless and offensive.
Scopely deliberately and consequently does NOT treat the community fairly in any way
This game is so broken in not funny anymore
It isnt a game anymore. Its crapware
The fun disappeared several years ago

Then it's interesting to see you defend anything that they've done this release as 'needed' when everything that has been released, every decision made has been to the detriment of the players. Nothing that they have done this arc has been 'needed'.
Explaining why something has been done =/= defending it
So you implicitly say scopeley announcements contains lies?
@raw fiber @tidal notch I want to thank you both for always trying to assist players and get issues resolved as best as possible. That being said I have submitted my request to archive my account. Scopely has proven they have completely lost touch with the player community and what had made this game great in the past.
Those who have BS Reseted will get points from first two BS events somehow?
A comp is being put together
For which of the many existing bugs?
I got a message that says they are "ensuring fairness" by undoing days worth of research. Yep seems fair - giving no more money to Scopely is just as fair.
Battle pass isnāt even working right š¤£š¤£š¤£
You've repeatedly defended their decision to remove the dilithium.
"To be fair, that change was needed. You're talking the difference between billions and quadrillions."
"even if it's not as useful as other resources, dumping quadrillions into the economy isn't good"
The 'economy' of STFC would not be impacted by a surplus of dilithium. This isn't a 'supply and demand' economy that flooding the 'market' with a resource causes it to 'tank'. Dilithium isn't a scoring element on events (outside of maybe Daily FKR events, which.... again.... doesn't really do much), and there's a finite limit of how much can be spent without the use of other materials. Boost alliance level? Wooooooo doesn't do anything worth reporting for the sake of this argument. You kowtow anything Scopely does and you defend it.
This channel is for 'general feedback' right? You respond to inquiries and lack any empathy. You respond to player frustrations with condescension. You've repeatedly shut down feedback if you felt there was enough feedback. Do more gooder.
There's no decision that they have made that's worth defending.
Never in the field of Virtual Combat has so much been screwed up by so few. š¤£š¤£
what about nerfing generic gameplay ----> LAG
To add to an already perfect comment: Great job ruining so many aspects of the game in with one update. That seems to be the only thing Scopely excels at these days.
Thank you, you speak for so many people and hit the nail on the head.
Is this the worst buggy arc ever? Ask for a friend who quited
Well there was that one time that require something like 3 emergency shutdown maintenances in the first day... But I do think this is the most bugs for an arc while still "operating".
Do not thank us for patience we lost long ago
what about the points I earned today already?
Sorry, bud. Those points would ruin the economy!!
They will be returned
Scopely hat das spiel kaputtprogrammiert. STFC IS DEAD āļø R.I.P. šŖ¦
Clearly they don't mind I mean decreasing the value of a BP by a large amount will ruin the economy more... was gonna buy a Dauntless and the mythic track today then I saw the value and refuse to spend on the game again until they correct this.
Seriously, does Scopely realize just how this stuff affects the community? Do the powers that be understand that this much disrespect for their customers day after day is just going to shut down income streams? We aren't talking about occasional isolated bugs here.
and I'm EXACTLY the kind of new, spending, blood they want in the game I would imagine.
<@&509690795536941056> could you send a message on the higher ops since this is getting worse even by your stantands. We are starting to have daily bugs and proplems of diffirent sort. More maintanance and emergency maintanace then ever be for. Just hold on the current new content or just adjust more resources to fixing the game CORE components. The game code's cant handle the constant new stuff without updating. Its like updating 20 year old PC with new parts. There is only so mutch in the end you can do. And we have reached by thr looks of it the end. Allot more people are stopping spending there money do the everyday new problems. Only a fool would continue spedning tons of money currently on a game that is falling apart.
So in short. Stop addint new stuff be for your fixed the core issues.
Let me guess lol ' we have found players will progressing towards their bp too soon. As a result, we have reset all bp points to 0 . Thanks for being a sucker to our company again.
If we can take away your done research, and take away dilithium from your stash, we can definitely take away your bp points too'
I completed the event but when I went to collect it had reset will I get those rewards
No one will hear you. STFC IS DEAD āļø R.I.P. šŖ¦
There only dead when they dont accept your money
They need to stop using AI to code for themā¦
This! The BP got so devalued it's crazy. If they had kept it the same, except add a mythic tier with the same/better rewards as the elite track, I would have happily bought it every month
Thatās why i stopped spending money for those incompetent programmer. So no more money to Scopely.
I Just Put a 7 day shield on and uninstalled the game.
I have a great idea... a livestream about the daily bugs, errors, and lags in this game... let's not let STFC players participate either... let more people see what's being offered here for money... š
Not sure what putting up a 7 day does for you if you're unistalling. Seems redundant
He is just not ready to kick the habit-yet⦠but being away from the game and reading this discord helps
by the time the 7 day shield drops, there won't be any players left to steal his resources
At this point AI improved drastically and doing better job than whey scopely does.
There are even AIs now that check and correct your code.
could we get a live tracker of how many people left over the duration of the month?
and how many players instantly stopped spending
I think some of the CCs track this. I know one that has spoken about it.
me
yeah, but i want to see a number drop every day, not just once every couple months
2 people bought the new loop on my server, they were already livid over incursion changes
Update 90 gives us the star trek starfleet academy battlepass. This update will be known as the update that ruined the gamešš»Its actually quiet ironic how this battlepass is based on the horrendous star trek starfleet academy tv show. And now the game got ruined. The g5 scrapping is rubbish as i expected but i wasnt prepared for the choice rewards being removed. It was the only thing i was buying as im not gonna spend 50 or 100 just to buy a pack. Now i wont be needing to spend, i know its nothing but i know quite a few players who were also buying the 20Ā£ bp for choice rewards. Now they all said they wont be buying anything. Good job scopely you guys just dont get it and never will.
New battle pass is a joke Scopely simply split the rewards you would of got in the old and made what they took a new $50 option to get what was given decreasing the overall value of the BP to those who are f2p
and caused people whow ere spending 20 and would have spend the extra 30 to not spend at all
yeah i gave up on all the battlepasses now
not to mention the other buys I had planned that I'll no longer be making
glad they did this before i bought the vengeance
So for me it looks like just 3 levels of FKR Damage in the Squall tree have been rolled back. I never used the green instant button though so not clear what the issue was. I have no idea how many black market schematics were deducted when I upgraded it last week.
I can reinstall, but can they fix it within 7 days? š
Just to constantly remind people.... Scopely thought about giving us nothing for G5 Scrapping and considered only allowing us to scuttle ships. I knew it would be bad, but this is beyond useless, and covered with lies.

Poor hammy
Accurate, but that's gonna get deleted š¤£
and me banned
I'm sure he hates me, but I feel for the guy, he needs a hug and whiskey š¤£
I could not imagine being the middleman for scopely
One word. Unacceptable!!!
that's three words.
I just hope hamms in a discord with devs and he's not talking to the support bot
We got g1 g2 g3 g4 scrapping. They have to give us g5 scrapping. They already started it than they have to continue with it. If they dont like the idea than why did they give us scrapping with rewards in the first place. They should have thought of that back in the day. Now okay i know they couldn't have know how it will be in 4 years time. But the damage is done and therefor they need to man up for their mistakes.
Absolutely accurate. Saudi investment is the death of all things.
<@&509690795536941056> we were out of patience. You guys have used and abused our patience. People are quitting you canāt afford to keep all your greedy tactics up on top of messing everything up. If my fleet didnāt have great people in it I would be gone myself.
I mean this is barely a game, I'm gonna bet you all have wish listed games on sale and are waiting to save 10 bucks on a 40$ game. Meanwhile just look at the cash shop here rofl
Just Curious, if A.I. is overseeing programming code and modifying them to Scopley's profit expectations and projections? I'm aware that this question is outside the box, however it is in the web of possibilities.
itās hilarious because there were months i wasnāt going to spend, then got a AT mat task, and ended up buying the battle pass for the task. š¤£šš¤£ itās ironic because now thatās not going to happen anymore. gun meet foot and shoot.
This. That's one thing I've come to appreciate about Hammy and his role. He's not a decision maker. He's just got to relay to others who sit in their ivory tower and then gets the shaft and has to face us with the constant bad news. I can only imagine that he takes a shot before posting the update back to us. A public relations/customer service hybrid role, essentially.
have you met microsoft? š¬š
iam supposed now to go through a million researches and see what is rerolled and what not now? š
You would think that, but when has Scopely actually followed the "rules" when it came to doing "right" by the customers? Literally never.
Players slowed spending. In response, big wigs demanded more, and directors, arc runners, etc wanted everyone bonuses, so they let that greed drip into every aspect to avoid losing their jobs. Giving players mats is seen as "hurting the bottom line". So, they stop.
I remember that i was a moderator for Solid Clouds (Starborne: Frontiers), it was chill, they were very communicative with the community, fixed bugs asap and had the best customer support i have seen in nearly 40 years of gaming. Mods had an easy job handling discord, players were pretty much happy.
Couldnt imagine being a mod for this game, you get all the (deserved) hate for something someone else does. I dont know if mods in here get any benefits, but it should be a hefty sum to make it worth it.
The <@&509690795536941056> are always doing a thankless job whatever the company. Even more so when it's such an overtly greedy one that can't keep even one promise made to its customers.
Too late. I already saved it.
Aber wenn du mich hƶren würdest würde das spiel endlich laufen und nicht nur abzocke sein. Also doch besser nicht nur zuhƶren sondern was tun und/oder Ƥndern. Mein Rat: Kommt in die Hufe sonst ist bald keiner mehr da der die GehƤlter zahlt. STFC IS DEAD āļø R.I.P. šŖ¦
may look harsh, but there is a bit of truth in it.
100%.
While they can't control what the company does, they can only control how they interact with people. Hammy does a bang up job in his role. Some others (avoids looking at the periodic table)..... They don't.
I get it. Still over the line tho.
But if you actually listened to me, the game would finally run properly instead of just being a rip-off. So, perhaps it would be better not to just listen, but to actually do somethingāand/or make some changes. My advice: Get off your butts, or else there won't be anyone left to pay your salaries soon. STFC IS DEAD āļø R.I.P. šŖ¦
There are two separate things going on. As revenue streams drop, Scopely is trying to maintain revenue levels by extracting more cash from the whales at the expense of reduced rewards for everyone else. This is part of the normal lifecycle of a FTP/PTW game, and signals the beginning of a long, slow slide into mothballs.
The second issue is not so normal, and that's the complete and total lack of any kind of quality control. They could open a test server for players who want to experience new content first and are willing to deal with and report bugs in exchange. They could hire a quality assurance staff. They could hire better coders. Not doing any of these things is only going to cause further reductions in revenue and hasten the slide.
Sadly they arenāt far off. The monetization efforts lately are driving away players faster than ever. Has anyone even done the math on how long it takes to get some stuff F2P? There may not be a game left by then and yet some is still behind paywalls.
Over the line for the corporate profiteers, but not for everyone else.
You aren't allowed to point out their greed. That's anti-capitalism. Which to them, is a hate crime.
And the way you just described it is a valid way of giving feedback.
<@&509690795536941056>
Disappointing $15 cannot keep recking the game. Our alliance is losing a level 70 day one member.
Big loss to us..
You really need to sort stuff out..
š¦£š
How pathetic every release there are issues when are people gonna wake up and realize this is all from the top the GM Conner is incompetent
The 20Ā£ bp for choice rewards is what i always bought since they done it as it was well worth it. I missed only 1 since they started doing it. Before that for the first 2 years i bought the 20Ā£ bp but than stopped for like a year because i didnt see any point in it. Sure its not much money they losing on me but of enough people stop it will be noticeable.
As a very long time retired engineering type; things seems to have gone south with the change to the newer unity engine. If you aren't familiar with the known issues form one version to another or how scripts behave from one version to another..

Step-by-Step Guide to Fixing Common Unity Errors
Almost every Unity game developer will face issues in their development process that can be easily fixed and will save a lot of time and frustration. Whether you are trying to solve simple script syntax errors or are maneuvering through more complex problems such as memory leaks and asset corruption, an organized method is the key. These steps will give you the confidence to tackle issues and keep your project on track:
Replicate the Error: Consistently reproducing the error is the first step in troubleshooting. This provides an understanding of the environment of the error and is necessary for testing solutions in the future.
Analyze and Understand the Error: Before moving to solutions, analyze the error message or behavior, and try to understand what might be happening. Unityās documentation and community forums are good sources of information to understand the causes of error messages.
Document the Solution: When the error is fixed, document the issue and its resolution. This helps in future troubleshooting and knowledge sharing among the development team.
Review and Optimize: Lastly, analyze the affected parts of your project to determine if more optimizations or enhancements can be made to avoid the problem occurring in the future. Taking preventive action can improve overall project stability and performance.
Well said bro! I noticed since scopely was sold the game has gotten more buggy and pay2win. They seriously need an overhaul or else its gonna be worse.
you should see the trace of what's actually happening in the game - errors are slung left and right
Be careful, I've brought this up before, and have gotten my wrist slapped. NOBODY talks about Business Daddy!
This is the kind of crap game it has evolved to. You are sending out more messages of things breaking than updates or event announcements.
I was gonna say this has the feel of venture capitalists taking over the game. Maybe that's the case.
Personally think they are just milking it for everything they can get before ending it
You are quick to fix a bug that people took advantage of because you were so lazy to test your own product but when it comes down to actually maintaining the game in a playable form it's crickets.
In fact, I was muted with the reason being xenophobic š¤£
itās not pure monetization. if it was only one thing, i donāt think people would care so much. Itās the constant lack of any sort of care. care in the form of āwhat would the players loveā, pride in being able to design/code/manage this game, care of players interests/wellbeing/time, and so on. if there were a lot of problems, but the player base felt scopely had their backs there wouldnāt be so much ⦠hate for lack of a better word. this feels like being charged 50 dollars a day at the work cafeteria for moldy bread and a stale coke while being told āyouāll eat it and enjoy it or youāll leaveā. you and the cms here do what you can to try to (stealing a german phrase) talk everything until itās pretty, but the overlords obviously do not care and do not listen. and after so many years of playing this game and putting thousands of euros into it, it hurts. it hurts the very soul. It is so very painful to see what stfc has become.
@tranquil grailTypically when you migrate you do a 'freeze' for a bit to see if things crop up bug and performance wise. Don't introduce arcs every 30 days LOL
aye, the 30 day cadence, the additional tracks while devaluing "lesser" tracks etc -- this is how Panera Bread collapsed
Normally when migrating an engine..and your a big enterprise, you bring in the engine's subject matter expert for a couple of weeks to familiarize everyone with changes and yes, review the existing code before switching. SME's have handy tools to compare present scripts to the new version that running offline
Hahahaha no way you broke another thing. How can you even take yourselves serious anymore, @ scopely
<@&509690795536941056> This is not a moan, but but a plea for common sense. When this arc finishes Scopely needs to take radical action to save the game. Rather than having an interim schedule or starting a new arc straight away shut the game down for week and try to fix all the problems. Yes revenue would take a short term dip, but in the long run you would generate greater revenue streams. ATM nothing works properly, event milestones are totally unrealistic and in some cases impossible - all based on the false premise that max hostile/armada level = Ops level and all Ops levels have maxed ships, officers etc. ppl donāt owing to the ever increasing complexities of the game so we are forced to make choices which the event designers penalise us for. The flow of players leaving the game will only increase unless radical action is taken to fix the problems.
they donāt need to take the servers offline for that. a simple ādo your dailies and get extra stuffā event on repeat would do. it agreed. donāt do anything for a while and just fix it. but the issue is not just mechanical. itās managerial.
@vivid terraceThey need to get a Unity consultant in there and let them audit the whole thing for errors..they have proprietary tools that find issues very quickly
To summarize this is an issue like MS10 upgrading to MS11. They took what worked in MS10 and just teleported it into MS11 thinking those executions were going to work as before...oooops!
I can't go into any detail now, but I can say that were' working on a way to change things up. Should be pretty significant, but I can't say more than that for now.
Stop the milking of players. That would be the one real thing to change
for the bargain basement price of multiple packs in the store?
Hammy if you werenāt a middleman that might hold weight but truthfully past experiences say Nothing is changing
Ok understand. Not expecting you to let us know what might happening behindās the scenes, but encouraging to learn something might be š
Can you say more than that now? š¤Ŗ
A genuine question for scopley - Where does the money that players spend on this game go? It's clearly not going towards fixing existing bugs, paying for quality of life improvemts or better developers - so please explain?
Der Weg führt in die falsche Richtung. š STFC IS DEAD āļø R.I.P. šŖ¦
Historically, any time that the players protest, Scopely has taken it as a personal insult and retaliated against us.
New copy and paste events constant heroics taking things away from battle pass and packaging them as new behind a paywall and all the constant stability issues well over 5 years invested and been the same
Significant if scopley deleted the game and started from scratch
Weil ihr eine Herde von Blinden und Stummen seit. š STFC IS DEAD āļø R.I.P. šŖ¦
Sadly, and I normally give you guys a fair amount of leeway, this kind of "something's coming that will improve it, just wait and see" response is just....for lack of a better term, played out at this point. I get you, simpauly etc are doing what you can, but people can only hear the same/similar thing for so long before they stop believing it and it feels like that's where we are now. Action over promises. I understand nothing gets fixed in a day (except player beneficial bugs š sorry couldn't resist) but players and CC's have been warning about this mindset from the playerbase for months and we're still hearing it. Something's got to change.
this entire arc and all event changes feels exactly like a retaliation against us the players
do you have a timeline on when it might get implemented only asking to figure out if it's a long time until it happens or shorter timeframe for those on the fence of leaving.
Well it kind of would help if you (as in Scopely) put out an official announcement that you heard the playersā feedback on:
-AT
-BP
-Choice tokens
-Hostile difficulty
ā¦
And are preparing a something with a timeframe of: next week - the week after next week or the next arc.
From the sentiment in my servers #1 alliance and myself you better act faster than slower.
<@&509690795536941056> Enough is enough. You guys want to change everything, and nothing works. All you do is churn out events that either require spending money or have to be purchased outright. You F2P players will soon have no chance at all to progress, but everyone is supposed to level up. What have you becomeājust a bunch of money-grubbers... The disappointment is slowly becoming impossible to hide. Youāre getting worse by the day. Everything players want comes with enormous hurdles and a time commitment that would require a 48-hour day. SHAME on you
Can the last one to leave the game please turn the lights off...
My advice to you and everybody is to make excellent financial decisions going forward, enjoy the friends you've made while playing. Do the things you can do within the confines of your time. All businesses listen when the bottom line is an issue. Well successful ones anyways.
I give you guys a lot of grief, but for the sake of everything I sure hope some good changes are on the way.
A good change would be for everything that comes out to not feel as abusive as possible towards the player base. Or what's left of it, anyway.
Scopely will read all these comments and think (do you know what we need, a new ship)..š¤£
Allow Unity audit on an offline mirror running parallel by a Unity rep. Never any shame bringing in a vendor consultant. Its how the big boys like Oracle and LITSLINK do it. You would be amazed how fast they find issues.
I just realized, the old officer token trade ins are running out in 27days? Im quite sure before the update it was a few hunderd days? Isnt it actually illigal to change these rewards because pay to win and regulations?
Therein lies the problem. Scopely is hemorrhaging players. And now a majority are the whales and dolphins. You have all this feedback channel, surveys blah blah blah. We can tell you what we would invest in but it goes in one ear and out the other. To be honest, it seems like the developers are trying to kill the game.
Players state there are too many grinds - let's add more and make them almost impossible
The players are hampered by lag - ohhh we are working on it
Players point out numerous bugs - fix 2 and 10 more pop up
Seriously, we are all dumb. In real life not a single one of us would put up with this.
Scopely: I loved the game. Maybe just maybe you will realize all this will cause your bottom line to deteriorate.
I'm glad the MU system warping seems to be fixed, thank you.
There are still other issues I am very frustrated with, but MU travel has noticeably improved for me
IDK if they've had a change of management in the past month, but Scopely have become extremely toxic towards their players over the past few weeks - if they don't want us playing anymore, just tell us and we'll move on.
They are telling us⦠some are just not getting the message.
Scopely have identified the player base as the problem, and the fix is to ignore us
That is the equivalent of my dog ate my homework...I promise!
If we have no apex barrier why would anyone do the Conquerer Borg Blitz event? Those armadas are ridiculously difficult already
Statistically speaking, something this month should have accidentally gone right at this point. The fact it hasn't is impressive.
Are they revert the refinery for the Academy to be based on the bldg level rather than ops? Cause that's about the only way to "fix" the issue of the new loop. At ops 66 I can get only about 500 mats required and need 6k to do 1 pull. So that's at least 12 trips to get 1 pull and we get 1 token a day. And we need the bldg leveled in order to hit higher hostiles which have more loot.
I get that Scopely needs to make money but designing a loop like this isn't incentizing me to buy a pack, it just makes me mad and want to play another game which is fun and I'm actively looking thru their shop to see what I want to buy because the game is fun.
So Scopley needs to make the game fun and that will in turn result in more spending by players, the mega whales are leaving (OR have left long ago). The player base has changed and so the mindset of Scopely needs to change as well.

we are going to do quality over quantity.

we hear you, we agree things need to change, [insert lots of promises to sort out lag, bugs, etc]. (Connor š«¢)

I can't go into any detail now, but I can say that weāre working on a way to change things up. Should be pretty significant, but I can't say more than that for now..
Yeah yeah yeah. š«©š„±š I have false promise fatigue.
If people canāt see the carrot and stick being used to keep them spending while nothing ever changes, then thereās no hope for them, and I respectfully suggest they send all their money to me where it will be put to good use on cars, women and good times.
Proposal: Run a contest to guess how many new bugs the fix to the battle pass bug will introduce and give the winner the payline for free
Here is AI's perspective of STFC and player feelings.
Can you be any more vague? You guys changed a lot of stuff up this last month, and look where we are now. Are we to believe that, this time, the changes will be in our favor and actually work? Sell us a bridge while you're at it.
Hopefully these improvements are implemented faster than it takes to scrap my stock of g5 ships š
I don't wanna be mean but at this point my trust in Scopely is so low that the only way I can accept a change, any change, as being significant enough is if the people currently managing this game are fired. Anything less would be meaningless as those are the very people responsible for the current state of the game.
Please fix this game. Period rebooting isnāt helping here.
Like always but will they bring back Choice rewards?
Where are the 2100 spacework circuits the event normally gives ...
Game sucks now, like way worse than before. The new events are terrible, the rewards are terrible, the battlepass sucks, idk what theyāre thinking but whoever is making these changes should be fired.
Monthly pack is not present ???
Anyone notice they kindly increased the sliders in faction Augment Store for officers to 100 from 50.. Bit of QOL, Thank you $15
At the same time reducing the amount of epic commander shards by 50%.. You used to get 200 epic shards for 5000 tokens , now 100 shards.
You give with one hand then kick us straight in the plums š ..
š¦£
I like the message you got some thing you should not we are fixing it really quickly vs we broke over half the game and no timeline except for more content that will break more thing and add more grind ā¦. As has been said it will kill the game as it isnāt a game it is a full time job i cannot remeber where everything is there is so much !
It is like when we used to have 3 month arc the continent was better it mainly worked and there might be 4 loops a year with 4 ending not 6 loops and not enough being closed down to stop the ballooning mess that is emerging. As for all the comment get help to fix the code that would be a welcome step
Significant as inā¦. I have a dream
- G5 Scrapping is no longer an insult to players, but helps healthy progress to players
- Bringing back choice tokens, being one of the best features in the game
- Returning free choice among selected officers for depot tokens, another highly appreciated feature
- Keep ATs as an event in which also f2pās and dolphins can perform
- New arc will reduce grind and complexity, giving us much deserved QoL
- Cherry on the icing, relevant bug will be fixed, without introducing new ones
<@&509690795536941056> please can you look into making the drones hostile more balanced for ops feels like this arc is for vengeance owners only Iām a new ops 70 and I canāt even get enough to refine 1 chest and I even spent Money on the building change needs to happen so many players will quit if nothing happens soon I know afew have already on 140
So there is a āknown issuesā channel that reveals clearly almost all bus are nit fixed, and no indication when they will be fixed, or if they will be fixed at all.
So Scopely simply doesnt do anything anymore about them.
Zum kotzenš¤®š¤®š¤®
The game is almost unplayable right now because of lag. Before you say itās my ISP or connection⦠hereās my current speed test. My connection is very good!
Why should I believe you? Why should I believe that the changes are going in the right way? Thatās the fourth Arc I am skipping because the amount of time I have to invest does not fit the rewards in any way! This Arc is even worse then any other arc, 90k token to open a chestā¦250 tokens I can get from a single enemy. Is it a joke? Are you guys testing the mechanics you implement, test anything? I canāt believe that you can wake up every morning, look in the mirror and can say āI am proud about our productā. Personally, when my company would deliver a product in such bad shape, with all these bugs, I would quit. I couldnāt stand up every morning and go into the office.
Even the vengeance owners can't do this arc, I've got one and I've yet to do a single pull from the academy refinery ...
Dont think the community is waiting for āchanging things upā. I am quite sure though we all want a functioning game primarilly.
Technically that would be changing things up
Just out of curiosity, can we make it 2 days without a major malfunction? Seriously. At this point you might as well make a compensation chest a daily claim.
What scopley things every player lives in
Question, did they ever fix the cadet officers with regards to outposts or is that a permanent no-go.
Oh really well if thatās the case a change needs to happen š¤£
Iāve got an alliance member thatās got a t5 vengeance and can hit the 68-69 and they not even bought a building pack he was using janeway,suder,seska
Or they could just give the compensation and cancel the arc. Iād be good with that.
Their goal is to provide a consistent experience, so in light of officers not working on Outposts they also no longer work on Hostiles or Armadas.
Or maybe theyāre just so utterly "hardened" that they couldn't care less about the players' opinions. I believe Scopely is trying to squeeze every last drop out of the players, only to turn around and say: "Thanks, you 'dear players,' for all the moneyāwe're going to go have a good time. We don't give a damn what you think." STFC IS DEAD āļø R.I.P.šŖ¦
@tidal notch any timeline on when we expect the fix for battlepass points and for events not popping up without having to click complete the claim in the Daily Login Calendar first?
so, I just got a comp chest with 70k bp points in it, but I still have no bp. I restarted my client and now I see unit-bp event to give points, but still no battle pass - pc client
No BP for me either, restarted it but no sigh at all.
Did everyone else just get BP compensation chest with no BP for it to go in?
Scopely is on the highway to ruin the game. STFC IS DEADāļø R.I.P. šŖ¦
Oh no, they straight ruined the game. It is now in a slow free fall to dead.
bp event, but no bp
so wait to claim that?
Well, I made the mistake of claiming already, but I would definitely wait if I were you knowing it's not back.
<@&509690795536941056> What about players who still want to purchase the Battle Pass? Will they also get the first 6 milestones twice? Where's the balanced gameplay in that?
#ā-official-announcements message
one bug āfixedā.
About 25 new of today only to go
So how many weeks that will take?
<@&509690795536941056> I'm truly amazed, but I sincerely thank you for rectifying your mistake... thank you very much.
In no way is this fair or balanced.
Weeks? That is some wishful thinking there
I didnt wanted to be too negative towards the persistently increasing total and utter incompenence of scopely
Probably the other new bugs share the same as all other bugs: new content, new bugs, all old bugs are irrelevant and will never get fixed.
Be positive about it instead 𤣠Can be positive they wont get any better
New bugs mostly dont get fixed either and become just new old bugs amidst the kazillions others
Iām evenly equal trying to be positive as scopely noticebly is trying to āfixā bugs.
On the other hand, all those bugs have grown so dear to my heart that Iāve given them names. At this point, I feel closer to them than to my alliance mates. š¤·š½āāļø
Bugs in new content primarily affect $$$ players. Bugs in old content primarily hurt FTP players. Scopely is more concerned with keeping the whales they have than in the overall health of the game.
Maybe, but Scopelyās crapcoding also makes new bugs affecting basic game mechanics, effectively affecting everyone.
Scopelyās concerns are mainly on how to extort more cash from the entire community
yes, which is why I really wish people would stop giving them money until they fix the thousands of things wrong and stop taking away the good content
Weeks? lol maybe years. STFC IS DEAD āļø R.I.P. šŖ¦
Battles pass isnāt back for me yet
Mine's back and its back to 0
BP event is up, but the actual battlepass is still missing, even after the update.
After update after collecting Comp chest it is now missing again
Feels like co-pilot coding 
Never even got a comp chest.
Stop doing backdoor fixes that break everything š¤
feels like the hampsters went on strike again
99 bugs on the wall, take one down, pass it around 117 bugs on the wall...
they prob messed up the fix and it paid out more than intended so now they gotta fix the fix and take away everyones things again
https://klipy.com/gifs/officer-doofy-salute-Ztv--k01KQG4PWPFQVFGTH188X3AQG66
Scopely's top developer
Where is battlepass!!!!!!!??
With all these messups do we think we will hear from GM Connor about any of this?
Gotta fix the fix that fixes the fix for the code they broke. š¤£
Why? Whatever he says will be nonsense and STFC will continue to decline.
Iāve said it before and Iāll say it again incompetence at its best
Poor scopeLy they donāt wanna hear criticism they donāt have tough skin let alone of brain
Now the battle pass is completely removed all together. Can I get a refund on the mythic i purchased?
When you add faulty code to already faulty code, what do you get a mess and thatās just what this game is
I got the 70K BP points, battlepass appeared for a bit but now it has disappeared again š
It would be nice if the content creators would all rebel and finally slam them online
Fix the bloody game
<@&509690795536941056> when you announce that something is fixed, it is usually advisable to fix it. Translation, where is my battle pass you just claimed was fixed?
I'ved logged on daily for 6 years.....I haven't at all today nor felt the want to. Game is crashing hard and fast.
the fix is being fixed
#ā-official-announcements message
why do you thank us for patience we now totally lost?
Just remove the battle pass. You've been removing just about everything you can think of anyway. Heck, just kill off events altogether and just require a $500 payment to play every day. Remove that bandaid!
I hadn't opened my bp rewards yet which means people who did will get 2x the rewards as me. Will this be addressed?
<@&509690795536941056> Now I'd also like to get double the milestone rewards that I missed because I didn't complete the Unity event within the first 5 minutes.
......................... um.................................. š¬
#ā-official-announcements message Itās official now. Scopely is calling it quits. STFC IS DEADāļø R.I.P.šŖ¦
Itās been hard to keep motivated⦠a lot of people in my server started archiving there accounts⦠this arc has really made things bad
The game isnāt worth it anymore
10000%. I'm maxing my ENT e this weekend and it's the only thing keeping me engaged right now. I'll probably drop the game after
What a farce.
Community Managers get raises?
<@&509690795536941056> ** The list of bugs grows longer with every update; how much longer does Scopely think this zombie can be kept alive? If you want to generate revenue, you have to deliver results. But Scopely is no longer capable of that.**
Star fleet academy is absolute a fault
Its not a game anymore. Its crapcode, designed to annoy all that use it
Iām toughing it out in the hopes that after so many leave they will merge our server and get to have some fun one more time before Iām done
<@&509690795536941056> can someone please help me with ticket #28459052??? I waited for 24 hous just to be told "We haven't heard back from you.." without ever giving my ticket an actual response! This is also the FOURTH ticket for this same issue that hasn't been resolved, this is rediculous!!
SHAME SHAME SHAME
@tidal notch Taking down the battle pass until tomorrow so that I could be properly fixed instead of a slapdash half job was the right call. This does not, however, relieve Scopely of the responsibility for not testing any this content before shoving it to the live servers.
So true
Scopely is logically too incompetent to fix their incompetence
All Scopely knows how to do is take our money
I myself donāt mind spending a few bucks on games here and there. But when your this greedy to make a dollar I donāt feel like spending any money
Not my anymore.
the new BP is crap like Star Fleet Academy. also all right done ^^
or mine. I'm done giving them my cash
this is getting sad at this point
Iām literally clinging on to the very last shred of interest I have in even logging in anymore⦠I am struggling, I really am. This arc has been possible the lowest point (and we have had some absolute chaos arcs in recent past 12 months). This one is just wrong on every level.
it was funny, now sad
All working at Scraplyās will be so embarrassed if someone asks them where they workā¦.
cluster of F's
Like for example once I locked in the vengeance I was debating getting the refit to help with efficiency. Until I saw it was 200 bucks⦠noooope couldnāt justify that⦠100 bucks⦠ok I havenāt spent any in awhile I will buy⦠but seeing it for 200 bucks nope š
oh, god. iād be so ashamed id never write them as an employer ever⦠itās worse than saying you worked for a certain usa food store chain that went out of business almost 20 years ago for bug infestations
$Ā¢0PĀ£ā¬Ā„
From my side, there won't be another cent for this game; I will play it F2P until the servers are shut down, and that won't be long. **I can also gladly provide my player ID so that Scopely can verify it.**š
#š¬-general-feedback message And the comments are a slap in the face to every player. Itās a disgrace. You should be utterly ashamed of yourselves. STFC IS DEADāļø R.I.PšŖ¦
That wouldn't be Piggly Wiggly, would it? I always hated that store.
The thing that prob annoys me most, is the Star Trek name being tarnished by Scopelyās greed. It is in direct contradiction with one of the most fundamental Star Trek values
The CMs comments/attempts at humor are so tone deaf.
Itās owned by Paramount, another greedy corporation. They donāt care about Trekās legacy, look at the last series they put out for proof of thatā¦
please hire some competant coders or sell the company to a business that can
So with the new Academy refinery, I:
- Grind the Training Merits
- Have a 1-day cooldown for converting 6* Merits to 7*
- Have another 1-day cooldown for converting 7* Merits to Engineering Credits
- Have ANOTHER 1-day cooldown for converting Engineering Credits to actual stuff
Suggestion: Could you guys be a little less cooldown-happy? Gate stuff by making it hard to collect, and/or by a cooldown. But cut out the cascade of unnecessary cooldowns.
Second suggestion: It would also be nice if your cooldowns all worked the way Daily Goals do -- per 24-hour period, so on any given day it doesn't matter if I collect the material at 8am or 11pm, as long as I collect it within the window. The way most of the cooldowns work now (on a 22-hour timer), waiting for event reset, or having a real-life schedule change, can really mess with daily gathering.
And while I'm on the topic, the fact that Elite Recruit tokens have an actual 24-hour cooldown (instead of a 22-hour one) is REALLY annoying. š
It just goes to show how money-hungry Scopely is. Itās a disgrace
You forgot the 'drop $$$$$ to get packs to let you grind". Because 216k 6* to 7* at 50 to 150 per hostile... that number ain't growing any time soon.
Don't forget everyone that it's not just your money they want....it's the data they collect from you to sell to a third party for a nice chunk of change. š
Agree. The present state of the āgameā is a serious issue. Nothing to laugh about
to be fair, if hammy and them donāt try to laugh a little, theyād be lying in a fetal position surrounded by empty bottles of hooch crying.
<@&509691205798592532> <@&509690795536941056> think itās about time for another grovelling apology from high up or are we past the point where they care anymore? Screwing battlepass is a new low but again shows the lack of care when changes are made to the usual dynamic. Shame you disbanded whatever community council you had for some kind of discussion but you really need to get back to working with the community rather than screwing us over on what feels like a daily basis.
We had such an apology twice. It turned out to be all lies.
They are past the point of apologies and gaslighting, 7 years of history shows otherwise. Burn the servers in their racks, this game is cooked.
No. Scopley lost all credibility. Period
Scoplie*
dude, i get youāre angry, but your going to get yourself perma-banned if you arenāt careful. i get that seeing the state of the game right now hurts the very soul. we poured our lives into this game over the past years. we poured so much money into this game because we believed in it. we believed that despite its problems it was mostly great and we thought scopes was going to have our backs. yes we feel betrayed because they donāt. yes we feel betrayed because they are destroying any last good will we had. but at the end of the day, itās not the cms, mods, or devs fault. itās all about how it is being managed. and yes, it is being managed into the ground. and yes, that is the biggest betrayal of them all. but we can still see it all for what it is and be civil.
Cathartic watching my base be drained. When the number rss hit 0, delete the account.
Sunken cost fallacy, treasure the friendships and move on.
We will get Next month the Next ship for 100 dollars/euros and we invest additional 300 - 500 dollars/euros to make it usable⦠like the sphere
Very much like that. š
The lags so bad right now I almost hit a ship on an node that looked empty, I clicked it a few times and reloaded the system to see what was going on, and then it came along and parked itself there
I laughingly collected some dailes, took 30 minutes to register. 𤔠behavious.
Took like a week for my alliance to drain me last year before I deleted as I forgot to open boxes first. Recommend making a new alliance to dump all the par and trit into depending on your level
having former alliance mates handle that, 5 days left to drain and then I delete regardless of what is left.
I have been having that issue with transisogen for awhile, which is annoying when you gotta open chests to be able to open other chests
I just click the auto thing now and what happens, happens. Im not going to be tracking if I get what it says or hunt things down, Im just waiting to see if it dies or hangs on and not investing anything until its either fixed or it closes shop while I focus on other things
It just reinforced my decision to move on. Now I am just here, enjoying some Schadenfreude at Scopely's expense.
i think āschadenfreudeā is the only reason to still be around. it sure isnāt for the sphere š¤£š
The company as a whole, yes. The individuals, no. I mean hammys a nice guy, and arsenic is rough around the edges but those guys dont deserve all the crap they gotta deal with because of these issues. The players are mad and rightfully so, but they are caught in the middle.
I'll have you know I'm quite sharp around the edges.
might i recommend sand paper?
We have talked a few times, your a good dude but quick on the trigger
I have no issues with the CMs, none of my ciriticsm of this game is to reflect anywhere on the jobs that Hammy or mods have done. The devs borked the game and it alll smells like a pyramid scheme iin the air falling apart. Like being in the same office when Bernie Madoff gets arrested. XD
end of they day, you guys dont deserve the trouble, and its your livelihoods
but scopley as a whole, some bad desicions thats making this all go downhill, very fast, and I rather not see that happen, but Im becoming emotionally detached for my own sanity now lol
Is it where the armour has fractured away? I have that issue too, carapace ain't what it used to be
More like every time i turn, someone has yanked a plate off
Management makes decisions and they made the wrong ones, decisions counter to the interests and wishes of the community that have been loudly expressed for years. They don't listen, so people vote with their feet. I am voting with mine and leaving.
<@&509690795536941056> will players that did not redeem their BP rewards twice now be compensated?
I would say itās not the devs but a level of upper management who is completely tone deaf and doesnāt know how to properly run a game and just sees dollar signs from the players
More information will be posted about the battlepass when it's available
Damn Ferengi
How about progress on the fixes of many other new bugs?
Yeah, agreed. It's looking like a downwarp spiral now but I really hope they start reading and start taking suggestions
they wonāt. rip that bandage off now to spare yourself disappointment later.
tie management bonuses to community sentiment (NPS surveys exist in all industries) and game performance
like stop making all this new stuff and stabilize, and its a business, so run old arcs with the new format (reruns) so the focus can be on fixes while keeping the system going. communitate they are doing this and why, and a lot of new players can get avatars and stuff they missed from the early days
dudes, how hard can anyone fail!? - scopely: "Yes!"
@tidal notch send this to your overloads, because I'm not gunna complain without offering solutions. Also stop taking back stuff you guys give out by mistake, bad look.
Itās going to be tied to revenue and if people donāt buy passes or packs due to how crappy itās all become and the low value then yeah their performance rating will be in the gutter.
They donāt care about player sentiment or satisfaction. They care about how much money the game is generating but that is tied to satisfaction too in a way.
I don't trust in them to do so, it was in September 2025 that "We are righting the ship, we hear you." From the GM. It's been over 6 months, at this point I can't believe a word of anything. 7 months to listen the players, implement the right changes to the roadmap, but nope we got g5 scrapping that amounts to diddly, worse lag than ever, and a battlepass that doesn't work.
I don't trust them to do so either, they had trust in 2025 and they decided that trust wasn't a business model worth having.
Now they got a playerbase scared to invest in there product because would you buy a car from a dealer thats known to have issues and need claims? No. Even if they do said fixes, its not worth the hassle.
Everything started going down hill with the "Year of Hell" and "Quality over Quantity" statement
i wouldnāt put money into it just because you donāt know if the ācarā will be around next month the way things are going š
They can still save this game if they put the breaks on, reverse the bad desicions, and actually start fixing bugs. Have a month of fixes with nothing but week long arcs or do reruns, and they can earn back the faith of players. I would buy the extra dock if they got the game stable, but right now Im not getting anything, not even the BP.
That's excatly my point and a point I made to hammy awhile ago, theres a few things I wanna get but Im not gunna invest into it when the games in this state
Scopley should accept the situation by announcing the game is beyond repair
same, I was planning on buying a Dauntless today
WIll never happen, quality coding is gone. You could have Claude Code read through their entire codebase and it would still comeback with even more spaghetti.
I think most people would agree the reliant was the last good loop/refinery and ship they launched that offered meaningful value. Followed by maybe transogen but neither was without fault but they were good ships that offered players value for money.
The new battlepass offers no value at any level now with the removal of choice reward/mats. it doesnāt even have tech shards or anything except a tiny trickle of officer shards.
If they dont have the original devs, making STFC 2 from the ground up might be there best bet. A lot of the issues seem to be they cant fix whats tangled. At least communicate these things if thats the case.
as someone who's worked to introduce AI to a monolithic codebase successfully across a small team of developers (company has been around since 2013 and the code is a mess) I disagree with this. It takes a work and understanding of how AI works to get to a baseline of quality AI code capabilities but it IS possible. It would be a fun side conversation to have.
The most incompetent company on earth, it's unbelievable how arrogant this company is and with what indifference they simply continue down the path of madness.
Hopefully you didn't give AI access to your database. I hear they like to delete them for funsies
itās not just bugs. itās
bugs
loss of faith in the management
feeling bullied due to toxic monetization
toxic comoany / player relationship
pay 2 win / participate
and so much more.
just fixing the bugs (though a huge step in the right direction) isnāt enough. theyād have to prove they are up to the task and prove they want to salvage the player relationship. they wonāt.
Anytime. you want to discuss, I am down. Quality first starts with deterministic prompts.
My coding knowledge is basic. I have enough to get an idea of what's wrong based on behaviors in the game but not much else
Same thing happened here.
I used to play this alot and invested alot of money into this until they decided to remove all the F2P aspects of the game and killed it all.
I see the same thing now in STFC and im 100% sure there is Ex-Kixeye employees that have come over to Scopley and are pulling the same crap here and is the reason why this is now dying
it's a start, and could win some people back and keep all the people on the fence
so i do need to exchange 14 times for 1 duo wave entry? please redo this...
Whales need krill to feed off of, scopley doesn't seem to know this.
Dear Scopely,, Please remove the token to access the Academy. It's plain stupid and it prevents players from PLAYING the game, Let us grind as much as we want, Kill other players to steal their loot and let the players have fun. You are killing the game with your incompetence and greed. This game is alive only because of the Covid pandemic where many players started to play because we had nothing better to do at home. Players bonded together, made friends and enemies and right now This is probably the only thing that keeps the majority of players from deleting this game.... There is a way for you greedy Ferengis to make some money while making the players happy at the same time. It doesn't have to be one or the other. Figure it out Already!
Sincerly ChuckNorris
Memory leaks and poor db handling, some infrastructure issues to compound the problem.
to a degree, I've been working on determinstic - high signal low noise - tooling along with clear definition of [company] coding conventions.
Oh yeah, absolutely
Grading production against the conventions?
Thatās right, the CM donāt deserve the trouble. Probably not even the developers: they are doing the work their Company told them they have to do: New content for more profit over bug fixing. Thatās a common problem: developers get paid to develop, not to fix something.
if I understand that right not really - some of our old code if the AI "latched" onto it as a proper convention it would be ugly. I created a 2 tier "memory" substrate, one with curated set of hard learnings I've had to correct when working and then another that's more just eposidic - keeping track of what and why across workflows so picking up the next day or in a new session is a simple command and the agent gets "framed" memories
The trust is gone, if they brought out STFC 2 would you spend money on it given the track record??
do you hang out in any of the CC spaces like Rev or DJz twich at all?
Right away? No, but I would give it a try, depends if they actually learn from there mistakes.
Very rarely, this was my "relaxation game" and would only frequent those spaces to catch up on meta I had missed, crews etc.
Let me give Scopely a suggestion. Take a couple of months off of new content. Give players Pattern Buffers to replay old content and run SMS/AMS events for missions completed.
i am a dev (not gaming) and i was once told āitās not you job to understand, itās not your job to worry about what could go wrong and preemptively fix errors that might arise. you are a (code-)monkey that sets variable a to one value and variable b to another and if i had my way iād replace you with someone from indiaā. yeah, i quit the next day but i imagine that being a theme for many devs in different industries.
That must have been a hurtful learning curve. :/
Does anyone have trouble with the redeem code "Commander"? It keeps telling me I'm not eligible, but I got it directly from the game.
not really - I had been working on a toolset in my free time already. I don't want to give my company control over it so I created a thin internal version. It was pretty easy from there
Can I get a refund on the bp? Since it didnāt work as advertised
Can you get blood from a stone?
Kidney stone? sometimes.
It's all Digit's fault, according to Scopley. Sound familiar?
I think that would only work if they had some way of porting the current accounts with all attributes across, people have spent so much money and invested years of time in this game, there is no way they would start from scratch again.
Look at wow classic, that was insanely successful with the same content and the same release timeline and people knew what was coming and when. I think a lot of people would honestly enjoy it
I have never played that, did it have the same issues STFC has, was it broken every week, did it have years worth of bugs that never got fixed, did they rack up the prices month on month whilst removing benefits for F2P players?
No of course not, that's why people may enjoy it, STFC retold, but works.
Another thing with the constant bugs is the new content. I need g7 stuff, but i cant kill even lvl68 hostile. So this leaves me nothing to work with on the academy
That is the exact opposite of this scenario, if people enjoyed the first edition of a game, the game was stable and the company looked after it's player base then of course the players would gladly pick up the next edition. That does not apply for STFC, I feel the only way that would happen is if it were developed by a different software company.
People have enjoyed STFC enough that we are all still hanging on in hopes it improves. So imagine if they remade it from the ground up so it didn't have these issues but we had to start over. I think a lot of people would be okay with it.
I believe stfc should probably give everyone a free vengeance. Because if they donāt do something. The games over. Iāve never seen it this bad. And if people quit in mass last year. Itās about to get bad
Thats not gunna happen, but they could start by putting the event back onto its old frequency cycle and bring back choice tokens
choice tokens were the reason to buy the bp and the best thing this game ever did
hell I bough the doubling of the bp when that was offered because of them, then they never did that again randomly
Truly. The state of the game is so bad. They cannot even run a successful bp anymore
@tidal notch so buddy now that we're all not so grrrr anymore how about a round of drinks on scopley you can swing that right???
who says we're not so grrr anymore?
I'm still waiting for ker'shara to actually work properly its only been out what 2 years? let alone ships randomly stopping mid route now animations not applying stores wigging out and whatever new bug was introduced today i love the game but its a hoit steaming mess atm and needs i line drawn and things sorting or its gonna go down even quicker than it was.
well If I got free drinks out of it I might not be so grr anymore rofl then again I'm pretty confident that scopley has burned all possible ways of garnishing any good faith with us the community so now its just eat some popcorn and watch it all come apart.
I trust them, about as much as I trust my ex
well I'll assume ya dont trust your ex very much due to the fact you ain't with them anymore lol
I got free drinks today xD I'm still grrr
I'm getting no rewards of any events right now. And the battle simulation event does not count for my meta
<@&509690795536941056> <@&509691205798592532> the events (apart from bp) do not work, please forward that to the team
Claim your boldly go rewards
But i want to save the syndicate xp for the slb tomorrow š¬
This is ridiculous
Holy cow, there are my slb rewards too. How in sweet Jesus's name is it possible to code a bug like that!? Are there still human coders or had artificial dumdness already taken over?
You guys find that little gremlin thatās changing code on you guys? Because I cannot understand how random content thatās 3 years old, 4 years old, 7 years old. That shouldnāt be touched. Is somehow being changed.
No
I also did not get my third day acknowledged in boldly go :o is it because i claimed the day before only now?
They been telling us for years now they have learned and things will get better they never do.
Maybe it's time to cut up those cards. They don't deserve it.
try logging out and logging back in
just showed for me
Probably not in the USA, maybe in Europe.
What a joke of a game. Reverses a bug that was their fault in the first place and now breaks the game with no battle pass
In what world would a Game Dev studio survive all of this absolute ass?
Just the last few week? Nope they been like that for a long time they are just more open about it now.
Games and studios have been shut down for freaking less and yet we have this crap ass studio with crap ass devs lasting for years with crap ass effort.
Trust me. It wonāt last much longer. Hearing people whisper of quitting.
We were -2 people just yesterday alone
Ops 71 here and for one of the first times, I'm thinking about it. Got the battlepass every month for nearly 3 years now. This month I am not. The removal of the choice rewards is a kick in the face to upper G6 and entry G7 players who need large amounts of sigma trit and rare crystal.
They want you to believe the new BP is packed with even more value. It is not. Choice rewards could have gotten you nearly 17k rare crystal, while the new BP gets you around 5K. Both are $20. The serious value came from the mats/rss. That has been destroyed. The new BP is comparitively worth perhaps $5.
-1 today
Iām ops 71. I can go to 72. Iām serious questioning my commitment
Here's the thing, even though I don't personally like this arc and SFA content as designed in game. If they restored the choice rewards, I'd resume my game and shut my mouth.
Understand, theyāre jacking up the cost of resources. And giving less for the same price. Because theyāre losing revenue. There are warning signs theyāre in a death spiral. And it isnāt coming back. Next year, they wonāt be able to sell a vengeance for 25$
well I've long said their monetization strategy is extremely flawed
Itās showing more than cracks now, huh?
Over the past couple of years, tons of content and loops and factions have been added that no one is interested in. It's causing endless bugs and running off huge amounts of players. Simplify, perfect, test, implement. ( or just shut it down)
Agreed, too much stuff no one asked for or is interested in, while ignoring tons of content that players would like.
If ignoring means: deleting or reshaping, yes. Can't wait the discord uproar caused by new AT. My guess is it will be greedy like nothing else before and of course buggy, new and old bugs.
Most likely
paraphrasing someone from my AC yesterday... "The more I'm asked to do, the less I want to do anything."
Thank you all for saving me to not purchase any scopley deals last night.. looks like it was a great call
I seriously lost the will to pull my faction store chests every day with how long it takes to click and open each 1
I wouldn't be surprised if they decided to cancel tournaments this month with everything thats happened in the past 9 days then again I also wouldn't be surprised if they do run it and blame us for it being a gong show either. I think for their part they should cancel this run until things cool down and they get the rest of the game under control.
Nah we double down around here
they wont cancel it, they got no issues P..in us off
lol naw double down was back in March we're in April bro now we doing a baker's dozen on everything
There is not a single person i know that is not angry and fed up with scopley but out of them im the only one that didnt purchase a building upgrade pack. they hate themselves for doing it but the game is like a drug. even i was looking at the upgrade packs and having to fight myself not to get it.
Glad i didnt cos 1 pack did absolutly nothing for people against the hostiles
you needed 4 packs but the 1 of 4 was only got G6 players 2,3,4 of the version were only available for G7 players
At the end of this arc if they dont address the rubbish return on G5 scrapping after all the time and money i invested in them ships I will be fully removing the temptation and requesting a account archive.
Will then see if the game is still going in 2 years and if the person running things currently is sacked or moved on then i might come back
I play a game to relax and have fun and all i been doing lately is getting angry and frustrated. I'm tired of moaning all the time. I just have nothing possitive to say anymore and I don't like that
Scopely really needs to listen to the players, stop doing these content additions. Deal with the issues fix them, all of them. Allow us to play with the exiting content, there is already too much to do unless you have no life outside of the game. The only new content we need at this point is G5 recycling. Just fix the game, and stop being Ferengi.
How about a very simple solution which would make people a bit happier. Allowing speed ups for ship scrapping. Simple easy and makes the 60 to 100 day scraps less of a problem.
So, maintenance until at least 10am? I won't be doing my dailys again... sigh, you guys are just really bad at this gaming thing
I have never been @ everyone more by an official server, ever. Is this normal? Itās ridiculous
Why fix anything when the games almost over? Hasnāt the last few months proved they actually canāt fix anything?!?!?!?
Considering how bad it's been they should have left the exploit go as a thank you
So much for prime time APAC gaming tonight
Can you finally fix the officers that stopped working in outposts, for May 1st maintenance
Scopley pray on peoples frustration, they deliberately create content to irritate people so they spend money on it to make it easier but for over a year they made it that instead of just purchasing 1 pack to do content you now need to buy 3-4 and with the Vengeance events that goes with it to either unlock the ship or to get upgrade materials meaning if you want any of it you have to purchase packs
Look at the bp this week. They canāt fix things. Theyāre shooting in the dark and getting lucky sometimes
most of us opted out of 'create a problem, sell a solution' but the GD whales just plow on
As evidenced lately by them changing events and event series to where players are forced into the āa pack solves the problemā dilemma again.
straight up I'm giving up on this arc, it's painfully difficult, if I can't kill an arc red 4 levels under me I've got no hope of achieving a refinery pull. I've never been so depressed in a video game in all my 4 decades of life. Consider the arc as many of us do; a comprehensive failure.
my packs give 44.4M lat and now i have 1.4B with alot spent on instant upgrades so you can imagine how much ive put into this game and im not even on the VIP discord.
There has been zero communication about the G5 scrapping or removal of choice rewards. and ive run out of Sigma Tritanium to upgrade ships so the end of this arc will be my last
@tidal notch Respectfully, I'm not sure if I'd label a 5hr outage window delivered nine hours prior to be "advance notice".. I definitely appreciate it vs things just going down arbitrarily, and I'm sure there's good intention behind such a short notice outage, but I feel like the outages (planned or otherwise) we've been seeing the past month or two are way too frequent.
#ā-official-announcements message
Weāre on day three and this broken arc for upper g6 hasnāt even been acknowledged. We literally canāt progress. How is this not being fixed?
and the $800 "multiphasic master" pay-to-play scam resurfacing is just another insult atop this turd pie. Honestly I'm starting to hate this art installation dedicated to addiction and monetary exploitation.
Well this is a stupid change.. Taking away choice and doing this? More chances to get Transporter patterns for an officer selection there that hasnt been updated for months and getting a random chance for more of that excessive currency
I... have.. 19.8 million of THAT
Just wait until you scroll down, then find out that all rarities have an equal chance
To be fair, borked officers, armadas, events, and combat hasn't been fixed, either. Acknowledged, yes. Fixed, not a chance.
Oh sweet! Fantastic! You guys couldnt put Makinenen in here at least? The Uncommon that you can't source ever because of random chance that comes around 2-3 times per month to get 1-2 shards if you're even that lucky?
Wonder why they haven't sent out the feedback survey, yet? š¤
Look how improved Officer Depot Tokens will be
Scopely: we have calculated the ideal payouts for g5 scrapping, we assure you. Also Scopely: battlepass too complicated sowwy
So you have like a 17% chance to get Badgey Shards, it's really terrific
Everyone needs to use this currency up before it turns into RNG garbage.
I may have the bedtime sillies and my math is wrong, but we've gone from being able to pick your Epic Officer shard for 4k Depot Tokens, to have a 0.58% chance to get the officer shard you want for those same 4k. Really terrific.
Instead of trying to force us to spend through events, perhaps fix the issues so we can enjoy the game and we will spend because weāre enjoying the game!
Iāve stopped spending at all, because why would I spend anything on a game that just frustrates me most days.
Many players genuinely not far off quitting, or already quitting. Spenders no longer spendingā¦
Itās genuinely not hard Scopely
They see nothing to address. They finally figured out how to make punching down unhelpful. Their motto seems to be "buy packs or suffer"
It's working as designed. You're not meant to participate unless you buy the building and upgrade packs for the new stat.
Jinx
what type of packs!?
Doesn't matter, just buy stuff
As long as it's not But Packs!
Nah buy those too
Battle passes cancelled, nerfed officers and events, a hated arc.....Scopely certainly knows how to make things worse with each consecutive update š.
they turned the most valuable officer sourcing currency into paper weights
So I can't access the BP, can't gain points for it but because I haven't bought any of the tracks I won't be compensated for the missed completion today? I mean, I was thinking about getting one of the tracks but now I think I'll just not bother 
They took it down to hammer on it a bit. It will be back and you'll be compensated they say.
Not if you didn't get a paid track, according to their previous posts on the matter
Man the game is 15years old and still donāt run right great job Copley
Thatās scoped
STFC release date was November 29, 2018. Scopely is 15 years old though. But you're right, it hasn't worked well for years
Well, people had accumulated large amounts of them. If they put any new officers in the store using them, why would they pay $$$ for the officers?
Scopely, I'm on vacation in Key West, I'm so glad to be here then taking part in this c rap you put out with this update, totally screwed the pooch on this one.
Seriously stop wasting your time and money with new arcs that nobody wants and don't work.
as a relatively new player, this would hurt me a lot as those who had used it already have good pve and pvp officers at high tiers too while now I have to struggle to source them and basically follow scopely's schedule to pull any officers at all, especially the rare ones.
Wonderfully ironic when you consider this "it's unfair to everyone that didn't have a chance to use it" was the same reason they gave for rolling back "exploited" purchases of research. I guess it's unfair when Scopely can't get paid for it, but totally fair for them to remove something that players can benefit from without forking over cash
Hypocrisy at its finest i guess
Hypocrisy is definitely an area in which Scopely excells
I'm starting to wonder if so many bad things were added to this arc so that it would be too difficult for the players to rally around just one thing.
In the past something like changing officer depot tokens would have had everyone posting about it non-stop. But now there are so many things to gripe about no one thing sticks out enough to get traction. There's lag, crashing, broken, well, everything. The new BP is a disaster, without taking into account how many times it's been taken down. Impossible new hostiles, not that that's something new. G5 scrapping is just awesome. They even threw in a token with a hate symbol as the artwork.
Is there a Saturday morning cartoon villain from the 1970s running Scopely? It feels so incompetently silly I can't think of how else we got here.
Yep, sourcing of specific crews has become a pot luck situation now. Of course I'm sure Scopely won't start offering paid bundles of shards for meta build crews in the future now that they've removed the best sourcing for some of them 
This is like watching the heat death of the universe on a slower and smaller scale.
I've figured it out!
You know how everyone is complaining about lag and poor game performance? Well, having too many players sucks up server resources. So, if Scopely drives down the player count, then lag will improve!
This is all by design. Nothing is borked. All is going to plan.
No it's borked.
This game is a real disaster, not a week goes by without problems, and it's getting more and more boring and complicated, and above all, very expensive.
Drain the user pockets while making a mad dash for the exit. Bernie Madoff style.
Wann wird das Spiel wieder funktionieren? WƤre es nicht sinnvoll dann eine Emailbenachrichtigung zu versenden und bis da hin einen Schild zu vergeben?
Where's the beef?
<@&509690795536941056> wow. with the new Arc your bugs, issues and lags reaches a new level of quality and quantity. When will you finally realize that you need to stop implementing new content and new code every month until all the bugs and issues in the game code have been fixed?
Why don't you also start deleting the old tokens that can never be redeemed again and give players some Latin instead? That would save a ton of server space.
Or do you want to continue like this until the game becomes unplayable due to the many bugs, issues, and lags?
They did not know what they do XXD
0 shards this donation event after like 40 donations lol
#ā-official-announcements message
why only a 4h emergency shield while the maintenance start window is longer?
Again, proof scopely does not care about the community in any way..
What an utter mess at scopelyās.
Total chaos
I'm reading the post that as the 4 hour shield will start after maintenance.
While, i've alot of gripes against Scopely right now, this seems fairly intuitive - ensure you have a shield that runs until 4pm (worst case scenario for maintenance), and when servers return, they'll apply a 4 hour shield to all players.
you do realise that the world consists of multiple time zones, right? just because maintenance may end at 4pm for you, doesn't make it so for everyone else in the world. for example, their potential end of maintenance in East-coast Australia time is 1am, so what use is a 4 hour shield here?
The 4h shield again is proof scopely just dont care in any way. A mindless firm š¤®
The upcoming maintenance will 100% introduce new bugs, as all maintenances do.
When will scopely start to hire competent personnel and managment?
new bugs added, no old bugs removed
I have serious doubt they will actually fix anything
why would they start now? they've been ignoring things for months
Itās amazing that weāre actually able to login given the quality of their coding
Even a broken clock sometimes points out the right time
<@&509690795536941056>
As the exact maintenance timing is unknown now, i assume there will be an INGAME notification as soon as its known? And this notification will be not like 5m before, so we know when to not eg start armadas or waves? Anything other would be offensive to the community
āAfter maintenance we will have the following fixed? Else why have it at allā¦ā
- G5 Scrapping is no longer an insult to players, but helps healthy progress
- Choice tokens return
- Returning free choice among selected officers for depot tokens
- Keep ATs as an event in which also f2pās and dolphins can perform
- New arc will reduce grind and complexity, giving us much deserved QoL
- Kirshara and other impactful bugs will be fixed
(One can always naively hopeā¦)
Keep on dreaming. I doubt they will be able to fix anything
I think im going to just put the game down each time the AC chat doesnt work, Each time I get a black 'prepairing' screen that never goes etc. soo tired of trying to do this
I doubt they want to fix anything
Only those problems where players can benefit
picking which officer to advance (shards) or what choice reward to get is part of strategy. If you remove all that and make it just random then the game will be boring. Instead removing those things you could just limit the numbers we can get
But actually it is not true. They fixed some bugs from the great list. But still too much on it, and big part of it will never be fixed.
Just be glad if the game even works again after the update
When Scopely introduced Choice Rewards / Depot Tokens they even acknowledged this as a good thing for the reasons you stated.
Removing player choice is purposefully frustrating players and creating a worse gaming experience.
This isn't a bug or mistake - as frustrating as those are, this is far worse.
It's purposeful toxicity.
Iām realistic enough, but wonāt stop reminding $copely about their homework
When will the battle pass be fixed?
During the maintenance.
Hopefully
Question is during which maintenance š
<@&509690795536941056> A bit of feedback in respect to the Academy refinery - the claim chest for training merits to engineering credits needs to be linked to building level, not ops level, it is impossible to get enough for a single pull of engineering credits for me at ops 69 - 24k is an extremely high ask when we can barely hit 62s at this point, and therefore cannot get enough loot unless we grind for ages, which is harder seeing as tokens needed for access - and with no other sourcing for the class honors, i and anyone else at my ops level is effectively frozen out of this content and improving the building. Please take this back to the developers and make the suggestion that they need to make this change to the loop so that it is actually possible to progress. If not, then barely anyone in our ops range will be able to do anything with it.
Let them just scrap this arc. Again very grindy and frustrating ā opposite of their QoL promise šŖ
Can't disagree with you on that, i'll take either scrapping it or making it viable, not fussed
What happened to quality over quantity?
The will use g5 scrapping for that and it will take them 2 months
Never made it to go live š¤·š¼āāļøš
After that announcement, they all went to the pub, had a good laugh and a few drinks and dumped that ideaā¦
No chance.
Letās hope we can at least log back in š
Not "The following ships can now be scrapped:
VORāCHA, QUVāSOMPEK, ROTARRAN, U.S.S. NORTHCUTT, U.S.S. CROZIER, U.S.S. ENTERPRISE-D, CORVUS, SANCTUS, DāDERIDEX, NOVA, MOWāGA, U.S.S. BEATTY, VRAX" They did not kow what tey do!

<@&509690795536941056> wow. with the new Arc your bugs, issues and lags reaches a new level of quality and quantity. When will you finally realize that you need to stop implementing new content and new code every month until all the bugs and issues in the game code have been fixed?
Why don't you also start deleting the old tokens that can never be redeemed again and give players some Latin instead? That would save a ton of server space. Or do you want to continue like this until the game becomes unplayable due to the many bugs, issues, and lags?
There's only 1 QoL improvement I want to see before anything else gets addedd, that the game actually works as intended 1st time. A fully functioning game with no bugs is what we all want.
The quality of the bugs has improved significantly over past years
<@&509690795536941056> @beklikesplants @daring meadow @raw fiber A love letter to Scopely. OK folks, cards on the table. We know things have been wrong from engineering for some time. We know Conor has promised to make things better but they will take time. We can accept that. We can accept that the bugs from the battle code update were for the good of the game and worth the few weeks of pain. What we cannot do is simply take away CHOICE from players. Officer Depot tokens. Choice tokens. The upcoming nerf to Alliance Games, sorry, even without seeing it based on all available evidence, its going to be a nerf. Now up to bat is the next weekend spend event where its more than likely without spending significant $$$, you won't do an officer unlock.
The battle passes this month have NONE of the new content, whereas for the last few years, you got about 25 percent of the officer in the 20 dollar track. Going to a random RNG sourcing for painfully small amounts per pull of the featured officer, a chance at many officers I and many others already maxed, seems draconian and punishing. What incentive do I have to spend my time and money on this?
Don't get me wrong...I like the new content, I like G7, I like where the direction of the game as far as the game content is going, but the sheer volume of changes that are only to further monetize the product, take away choice, and ultimately, take away the fun has already lead to widespread quitting in my alliance on server 89, and its just going to get worse. We cannot wait on Billy from Accounting to make decisions.
Please do something now before the orbit decay becomes inevitable.
Who is āweā? I donāt accept Conorās lies or the bugs. The game is a profiteering š© show that insults the player base.
It's been 7 months, that is more than enough time to correct the path. They have gone down a darker path, one that most should not tread down either.
Conor has promised changes that will never come and I know that he is not to be trusted.
His "efforts" reduced overall fun and caused a lost connection to the player base.
I wouldn't bet on him for anything good. For me he is the epitome of failure for STFC.
& quantity has grown exponentially
Maintenance - our dear focus hour to rant about their broken promises on quality, reduced grinds, fair progress and fixed bugs š
servers are offline one hour to go
The latest transition state of the game. It 's time to close
anyone taking bets if maintenance will be done in only an hour if anything actually gets fixed I'm feeling like today's a good day for gambling lol
Hold you are so right
Patch notes:
- Corrected Spelling
- Nerfed Content for the players
- New Packs
Exponentially. šŖ
yea chat it up like the weather people do then nothing
Omg we have been waiting for just such qol changes
WOW Just boot me while doing Daily collections. Bunch of clowns! Thanks for the warning, Count on the game being down 4X longer than they say! It always is!
You must be new to STFC
@raw fiber wait a minute! Your announcement said the maintenance window was UNTIL 6:00AM PDT. Not that it would start at 6:00. Please consider increasing the compensation package further due to starting maintenance in the prime time for getting in before work and school starts on the Western North America region.
I thought it was going to start at 1 pm I was wrong
Or add new ones
The anticipation of whether we can log back in...
What # of update is this alreadyšš¤£ ontop of ruining the game they been doing maintenance nonestop since update 90 came out.
regular maintenance hits APAC in prime evening play time each week, so I'm sure you can survive with a single interruption to play
Here you go: get a flavor of logging back in
Working as intended then š¤£
What a š© show
Note the word "regular." You get to plan for it. In this case the announcement was put out when most of us early morning Pacific Coast players are already asleep. There was no time for planning.

Are we having bets on when the Emergency Maintenance starts...? Asking for a friend š
the Emergency "Emergency Maintenance" Maintenance?
now the game is down, time for some šæ
Scopley needs a little blue pill to get it up
Are they trying to get everyone to quit playing???
Is the game still in maintenance?, came home, updated the game and in discord instead of playing
At this point they have to be. Some exec is probably just like go ahead and price them out so they quit and we can shut the game down. Iām truly baffled by whatās going on. Stfc has already been notoriously bad but this is silly
Fire GM Connor!
they'd have a lot less ill will directed at them if they just said "hey everyone, we're shutting the game down at the end of next month, it's been fun, thanks for playing"
@solemn ice , out of a Photon Torpedo Tube without an EV Suit.
Oh no doubt. Iām just baffled. They have been predictably bad. Somethingās changed recently we all arenāt privy to
8+ years of experience designing systems or economies for live, F2P games (preferably MMO, 4X, or strategy genres) šš
Every single time!
yoo guys whats your opinion on project hail mary
my sever is still out
is that what stfc calls it everytime they go into maintenance. Sorry couldn't help myself
Hail mary?
Not a bad film actually, first time I've enjoyed a Ryan Gosling movie...
I'm a big football fan so I know about the famous Hail Mary. In this case, they're going to need a miracle to get this ship back on course.
It'll be a butt fumble š¤¦āāļøš¤£
same, really good in my opinion, couldnt watch in imax tho
tick tok
I have the book Project Hail Mary. It's pretty good.
the could
if things timing wise is correct there's like 40 minutes left
if they are meaning 1 hour you know
I think this arc is great! all those new bugs are a perfect match with Starfleet Academy!
It is sad that your statement is probably true.
<@&509691205798592532> Can we get a patch notes for what changed on #š -rules-and-roles a couple days ago?
With these clueless clowns doing the programming, its more like 1 hr off, 10 minute running time then another 1 hr down multiple times today to fix anything but what is broken.
they should play the jeopardy final question song
well I could do go and do somethings around my place
among other stuff
gota check the weather
did I just get a warning it;s taking time to put this out there
what ? is it done
nope

The Work-Ker... will not fix... that which is broken.
Well games back yet the BP is still not there. What did you actually do?
server is back online ... without battlepass.
I suppose the BP simply had enough from this messed up arc and retired š¤·š¼āāļø
of course, thats just 1 downtime, thats another 8 hours
What is this trash? You nerfād Leslie
YUP
couldnt fix him so it was nerf
its like the brawl stars stuff lol, oh brawl pass is broken? nerf leslie
The Work-Ker doesn't have the mind to... think of better use of Officers that have no real importance. Below decks would be an Idea... but not an Idea of the Work-Ker.
guess I'll go back to real life since there's no apparent fix done with this game and got a golden shield for 8hrs thanks for trying scopley better luck next time
Unacceptable. Ppl spent real money to unlick him. Now he is worthless
What's the excuse for nerfing Leslie? "Meaningful balance and progression that's fair for all after listening to player feedback"?
BP is now back...... But for how long??? Also reset to ZERO AGAIN. š©š©š©
Leslie nerfed ā impressed once again, how quickly $copely fixes issues that benefit players, but not them š¤
im just sad that scopely is still not acknowledging the academy hostiles being completely busted
server 701 ops 63 it didnt work still go battle pass
bp is back but not the event
feedback?? trust me..you do NOT want my feedback. event if it wasnt all censored
that would mean they acknowledge that they put out something broken and unable to be done by majority of players which they've done never in almost 8yrs
#ā-official-announcements message
As the bp is zero, nothing was fixed.
Culling leslie is unacceptable
Whereās my bp, should not have to earn them again
Again I implore folks to be fiscally wise with regards to this game.
guys bp points will be given out. problem was that half the players never even saw the pass in the first place
You guys aren't serious? The whole reason he was used is because people couldn't hit at or around their level AT ALL. Giving increased points does absolutely nothing for players.
What about fixingā¦
- G5 Scrapping, being a rude insult to playersš¤¬
- returning choice tokens, being one of the best features in the gameš±
- allowing free choice for depot tokens, another highly appreciated feature š¬
- Keeping ATs as a community event, not only for p2wāsā¹ļø
- scrap new arc that added another grind and over-complicated arc that nobody asked for (being the opposite of their QoL promise)
āWe fixed your battlepasses. Oh, and surprise, we capped another officer because you guys were getting too much value out of it instead of paying us for said valueā.
Speechless. Seriously speechless.
Why do you lie? Just say it - you didn't like people being able to do the Vger Orions task without spending some more money.
#FreeLeslie
Of all the things Scopely could have 'fixed' Leslie was not one who needed fixing.
all scopely have done is completely screw over a lot of their playerbase without having the decency to admit it
Scopely: "It has come to our attention that players are using an officer that they earned in the way that it was intended. We have taken steps to correct this"
They āfixedā BPās, and yet they didnāt. Itās still not showing up.
yeh, no BP event
What I get from the Leslie situation is that I should not invest in packs in acquiring officers because Scopely can, at any time, make those officer abilities not work as they see fit.
You nerfed Leslie into oblivion, to a point he will NEVER be useful to any g5+ player
In an emergency maintenance while half of your game currently just doesn't work and needs a LOT of patching
#FreeLeslie
You can't convince me that Scopely isnt trying to dump the star trek license at this point.
Reminds me of I think it was the Relativity. When the store got nerfed when F2P were about to get it. Typical scopely lately. Completely screw over the playbase
<@&509690795536941056> What do we get as compensation chest for the whole bugs, issues and lags since the last update ???? i think, i speak for @everyone that we want all the elite battlepass for free!!!!
WTH is these changes, if you cannot find suitable option then DON'T CHANGE IT𤨠These past 2 months have been nerfing f2p on everything
#FreeLeslie
well the Leslie thing wasn't needed and sends a message to whole community that spending any money on any officer moving forward is a waste as you will nerf anything that helps the player.
What a mess
guess thats another thing that scopley gonna die on a hill for as many players either continue to leave or stop spending hope it's worth it
You know, I honestly never expected to see a company that made EA look like they wouldn't sell your kidneys for a profit
I think they're blinded by stupidity at this point
bp is back but not the event
This probably isn't even top five worst arc releases.... which is saying something.
Fix know issues, please. And your Last three Arcs. Are everybody's quitting so. We're not inviting anybody back.That's not our job, so you're stupid.Little event, you can take that and put it in your book.We're not inviting nobody back. Fix your stupid game
Deliberately messing up the BP to try hiding the leslie nerf ... earned yourself a Mandleson Award
Canāt fix the lag but you can sabotage the officers.
Many needed Leslie to even be able to keep up in these completely ridiculous new loops.
And now this...Really?
#FreeLeslie
You couldnāt leave something working for the players huh
Scopely, you thank us for our patience but understand the main reason most of us are still here is the community the players have built. You simply provide an exponentially broken and breaking platform. Our patience is worn out and our communities are not going to be enough so you will continue to bleed players. I would go on but youāre deaf when it comes to the players and Iāve wasted enough time here.
This is the feedback.chat. And they don't even read this , they don't care what we say , that's why everybody's quitting
Where are my points for the battle pass. At toss point things are so bad everyone should get a free $99 pack their choice
should we all now send cs ticket to demand everything we put to max leslie back as its now a difrent officer ?
yo scopely, okay leslie seemingly had a bug, but why not fix him instead of level capping him?
So instead of fixing known issues (like players not getting rewards, broken Armadas, Broken Gs31, broken officers, etc), Scopely "fixes" something benefiting players by nerfing Leslie. This is ridiculous! š¤¦
I wish you guys would cool it with the AI slop...
Got more chance of aliens arriving and turning everyone into Borg than Scopely ever doing that
It's time too get some good lawers
Every new arc, new problems, same old problems not fixed, people leave the game. Long-term players have had enough and you are not gaining new ones to replace them.
I agree with you just because it should happen doesnāt mean it will
and scopley wonders why many of their games are losing revenue hmmmmm I wonder why!!!!!
So I had an officer that could kill the Vger hostiles and you Nerfed him....shame on you Scopely
the only fixes you do, are ones that work against players. Completely ignore everything that would help QoL gameplay. What is the matter with you?
no one hates their playerbase as much as Scopely does
The feedback from the standing player base for the āre-recruitmentā drive was effectively ābut their friends, why would I make them sufferā š¤£
i understand why they had to do something about leslie, since a recent update made his healing permanent(ships with him as captain could become unkillable, they'd revert to full health at the end of battle)
but making him not work against lvl51+ is too much of a nerf.
there are other hostiles, other strategies that have been destroyed by this change.
like xindi grind against xindi battleships up to lvl60.
That is the scopely idea of QoL gameplay. Screw people over as much as possible, get them to quit. The less people in the game, the less people complain about QoL.
You gotta be kidding me. So many problems that this game has and you decide to 'fix' an ability that performs better than expected?
It's Gaila all over again.
Unbelievable...
They have broken and fixed Leslie half a dozen times I can remember in the few years Iāve been playing, feel like itās an excuse to punish players 60+ & 70+ who arenāt spending enough and are using him to complete dailies
it's a massive improvement for Scopely's QoL. Our QoL doesn't matter to them
I will try to kill the VGer Orion without Leslie at 71 once more. If I cannot do so, then you've again rendered my purchase of the Excelsior useless, and I'll be taking my 5 year ops 71 self to the delete line.
Expect this will be the case, and not really that sad. Sick of this dumpster.
Took more than 1h to solve nothing, BATTLE PASS STILL ZERO "0"
That is the worse joke i ever seen, you guys there should go and retrain yourself, it seems your only qualification is to add more bugs andš© in the game
Scopely what did you fix in this maintenance ? Nothing like always
cleared localization and still no points
I honestly don't think it ever has. Scopely are so far out of touch with their playerbase, I'm shocked the games still up
No Players, no complaints. The NPS profits massively š¤£
PlayerSatisfactionScore will go skyrocket. Management will like this.
They fixed Leslie š
castrated you mean
Yes indeed thats what is the most important for them
fixed in the sense he was taken to the vet and neutered
Severe lag on 42
Making Leslie completely useless is an absolute outrage. The way players have been treated lately is unbelievable. The game is supposed to be fun, but now it's just infuriating.
You seem surprised by this
And even if you unlock the ship 60+ F2P youād need serious $ to be able to have it complete the dailies of the same level, this was clearly to punish players who used him to avoid spending $
clearly that's the intended state of the game now, since they've done nothing to fix it
ah there's your mistake, you think this is a game, scopely think it's a piggybank they can shake for coins
I expect it, and much more failure.
at least the golden shield works. we should be thankful for that.
suggestion for the next redeem code - SNFU
All of the issues in this game they could fix to improve player experience and they take away ones that actually work
I really don't think there are words... In response to this train wreck of an update this has been, Scopely decides to nerf an officer like Leslie? Wow.
<@&509690795536941056> , When I open a ticket, and it says that someone will get back to me within 24 hours, but the only reply I get is the bot saying that they haven't heard from me and that they would close the ticket, there is a problem. My ticket wasn't addressed but they tried to close it.
I've never used Leslie on my vger crews...
You missed out
Really important issues are always repaired immediately š
Fix lag for system loading, hostile tracking, gs31 beam, raiding, repair, recall, kirshara?
Nope... Leslie was too powerful.
This game is waste of time and moneyā¦Iāll go for a walk and play PokemonGO.
Same company, what you doin' boo
bp is back and i understand points will come later but why is there no event? not the usual or that extra one
but it works š
any other recommendations?
Lol didnt need him tbh...
It needs to be a scopely boycott. Not a stfc boycott
and my god is the lag terrible
When are you going to comment and all the other changes that no one wanted, like the AT change, loss of choices, and the insult that is G5 scrapping
We should make a community discord shared with PokĆ©mon go and share all the bad customer service we get š¤·āāļø
There's another mobile game idle / gacha I play that makes no effort to hide that it's a P2W and encourages you to spend money and they still treat F2P players better than scopely treats any of its players 
will play it as long as possible before scopely fuggs the next game
Any body want to comment on how bad the lag is? Go for the greed Scopely becouse it obvious it is getting wore the more you try to mine our money.
Postpone the next 3 months of your v.s. and use that time to fix the last 6months of crap you can't fix.
In the Job advertisement posted for a scopely job you bragged about making 10Bil $ profit over the years. Use the money, upgrade servers, hire competent programmers... Common this is a joke. You sell a broken product and you know it. Your brand and co company brands going down the drain with this one.
Leslie is a widely used officer for Vger, Xindi, punching up on Exchange Armadas and just in general. <@&509690795536941056> you're going to have a riot on your hands. This whole arc is a complete and utter trainwreck.
massive lag across the entire EU. worse than ever before
Comp chest should be access to this weeks treasury unlock atleast this is mad, back to zero points again and game crippling lag
yup eu412 lag is completely insane
So, the update didnt help with fixing the fix that should have fixed the BP bug
The incompetence is mindboggeling
Lag on the US servers as well almost impossible to claim stuff in the refinery.
<@&509691205798592532> how often can i link this before you consider it spam?
exchange armadas are unaffected, they're max lvl45.
Oh my god the game is even worse than it was before they took it downā¦..again!
You just nerfed Leslie who was used to punch up on the NX-01 and has been since the start with Xindi-Aquatics ... every change you have done recently has been punishing to players. Why do you hate the players so much? <@&509690795536941056> @tidal notch & <@&509691611903426561>
GS-31 refinery disappeared
Yes, but I'm referring to them saying "Prior to the update Leslie was a marginal officer with very low usage", when that's not true.
What did I do? Iām just as upset. Leslie unlock cost me $20.
Scopely lies quite often.
They have no shame

You are all welcome to go on Twitch right now and share your disappointment with Official CC @runic zephyr - https://www.twitch.tv/ultravetika
Can I Command my Fleet today? Or at least Trek among the stars? Let's find out.
The Leslie fix needed to happen, but this is one of the last possible moments I would pick to do it to avoid bad faith.
But either way, submit your feedback and let them know.
Also, do I like this fix? No.
It's not you in particular ... yet ... There is an element that content is a key to communication and anyone who potentially has the means and methods of communicating that choosing Billy in Accounting over Making a Fun Game for Players is important.
The old phrase that keeps coming to mind recently is "Don't hate the players, hate the game"
the cap should have been 61 so ppl could still do the nx01 xindi loop
To say that it 'Needed' to happen is categorically false. It didn't need to happen.
@raw fiber you're doing great.
How to fix Leslie correctly: If Leslie's captain maneuver activated during a battle, destroy the ship at the end of combat.
Who cares about Leslie. Free the battle pass. š¤£
so the bp and event are now back but when i completed the event and tried to claim the rewards it crashed the game
scopely deliberately moobared the BP to make ppl look away from leslie nerf ... noone cares about the BP, look at leslie!
Give a Thousand Monkeys a Thousand computers and they will eventually produce a fully functioning game. Probably quicker than Scopely.
How bad can we f0(|< up a game and the player base? Scopely: Yes.
@runic zephyr wasn't sure if we mentioned that he was live talking about Leslie, and there's people there tagging #freeleslie in twitch too
After I requested my STFC account deletion, I've made my family members uninstall all Scopely games they had. So yes, it needs to be a global boycott of this joke company!
content creators create content right? the name implies it ... pls create a free leslie pic for us to use, ty
to sell the Shakedown pack... take money... and then later nerf their utility seems almost criminal
Oh screw you guys. The V'ger Orions are impossible so far at 66-67 without the cheese crew (until the butt end of 66 I couldn't beat ONE without cheese). You break Leslie so now he SLAPPED vs them, and your fix was to.... Turn him off?? I hate you.
After this Leslie update I think the game developers and the people that run STFC are openly hostile toward the players. There was no reason to change Leslie's abilities other than to directly attack the players that have been using him for years. Time to start looking for a new game to play.
so the bp and event are now back but when i completed the event and tried to claim the rewards it crashed the game
Long-time G6 player here....
I'm going now, Scopely is crap and the game is dead.
Goodbye everyone, maybe we'll see each other again in another game. š
battle pass issue rewards keep coming back
Give a Thousand Monkeys a Thousand computers and they will eventually produce a fully functioning game.
rumurs say that this test envoronment is already set up at Scopelys HQ
Meant that it was unintended battle behavior, and they wanted to address that. So it needed to happen from the perspective of long term health of officer strategy.
They mitigated the hit with the Orion adjustment just so player rage would be somewhat mitigated as well.
However:
- Game is still not at an ideal stability point
- Difficult hostiles have been released in the last several months
- Player disposition with the game is currently āneeds improvementā
- Lots of players enjoy punching up to help create time to work on more loops.
So this was a poor time to whip it out.
How's that Areana impulse fix coming along? Seems like the same solution. Cap it and move on.
I appreciate the long winded post, but, it didn't need to happen.
I doubt thatās a high value ticket at the moment.
#freeleslie
I don't see Scopely seeing any high value this month, especially pack sales. š
You forget, as long as it includes G7 cost efficiency, they can sell anything.
Lag, academy, vger, outposts, arena, waves, incursions, cartoons, transgenic, aggregation, new augment, unscappable ships, power structure, formulas, borg madas, reminders, sigma, Maverick, pay walls, diddly rewards, bad communication, bad development, kack of testing, challenge, continuum,mirror, forbidden tech, it goes on and on with crsp no one wants or uses. It's harpoon a once good game. Now it's circling the drain. I got my popcorn and am watching the implosion.
It seems like at this point it would be easier to assume every player has completed BP milestones and just reset every player as if it was today but I don't think they're doing that
Next week they will roll back accounts because "many players claimed BP rewards multiple times."
Anger turned to hate towards a brand. And once you leave you never return.
Please just cancel the whole Academy Arc at this point.
To anybody who could do Orions without Leslie, good on you. Don't care about your experience, it's not representative of most of us 69+ where the Orions are near unkillable.
Scopely today has given us an excellent shown of their utter and total incompetence
They needed to fix how his math worked because they broke it again, as they have half a dozen + times, the fix didnāt need to be an Hostile level cap, especially since itās been made clear many 60+ & especially 70+ could only complete dailies and SMS goals using himā¦
This was about profit:
The G6 and G7 players used him instead of spending $1,000+ on new ships and packs to tier them up, or parts for new buildings, and in some cases both
Nice maintenance fix to undo the somewhat reduction in lag you had done.
Now lag is longer than ever.
Do any of you actually know how to code?
Canāt use Leslie anymore, but got a magnificent lag in return. Does that count for something..?
They want you to leave so a later invite them back event has more success
Don't give them ideas there will be whales that would buy it stir is new
I would've been fired on the spot for untested code in production environment
Feedback: Hire some competent developers.
'Fixing' an officer your players have found as a workaround to your abysmal balancing isn't gonna fix your problem.
Problem is it is not even remotely engaging to temper with your Crew for specific hostiles.
Problem is bsrring your players from using soecific officers is not gonna create hype OR revenue.
Stop dishing out half-baked content that wouldn't make it past QA in any other company.
and competent testers
so wait, were the below deck abilities that weren't working now fixed? (e.g., on polygons?)
Can't claim all my bazillions of chests this morning, just spins and spins and spins.
Error 5 pop up permanently on ios, client up to date
My game doesnāt even load this far
Oh, and let's not forget about the "integrity of the game". So despicably hypocritical.
are there still problems with the duo waves?
Shut the game down, stop spending money on it
Fix one thing, add 10 more problems thing
I've been a developer for 25 years, and I've never come across a situation where we would have shipped any of the so blatantly broken updates that Scopely ship out on a regular basis without a serious internal enquiry as to wtf happened. The state of scopely's updates makes me embarassed for my profession.
Friendly suggestion: please clean up all the bugs in the game before releasing new arcs
And utter contempt for their player base.
Their shamelessness knows no limits
Is it just me, or has the maintenance work solved nothing? Quite the opposite, in fact ā itās even worse now.
Game updated and still cannot collect
We are the testers. The game has never left beta testing.
i dont understand i got back battle pass and all my milestones reset so you took them back after i earned them???
It is not you

I don't blame the coders, engineers, dev team, marketing or anyone else in Scopley's corporate structure. I put all of the blame for the this absolute S show on Connors head. We need a new GM that has a vision and understanding of what players want. I've already moved past hate and have gone directly to apathy. I just don't care anymore. I play this game how I want to now (when it works). I set milestones for my account (i.e getting my G6 rare to T9) any other loops or events I ignore since the effort I need to put in doesn't justify the time/rewards. For the players who don't belive that they're being heard. I would suggest contacting Savvy Games, it was a very cathartic experience for me
Today is way worse for me, than yesterday was.
Using my Android tablet same exact thing
