Credit where it's due, the fix that was rolled out for the GS-31 grav blast seems to have worked perfectly. It's pretty much instantaneous now. Thanks to the responsible dev(s) š
this is pur ironic or the biggest greed i ever see in my long game history
you should have something to complete the tasks from what I read
@serene kraken based on the lessons learned from the last bp "fix" I think they need to make sure folks have the bp first, points second
Nevertheless I stick with what I said, the gorgeous compensation does neither fix the game nor changes are planned on the roadmap as stated by the community needs.
The game is in shambles and the new "features" are not what the community expected as a game play improvement.
the alliance tournament isn't as bad anymore. after we adjusted our mentality AT was due for a change. there are spenders who will 10k 20k task. Those who don't , it's ok. you , you, you, everybody will all get the legendary token reward in the end of the AT.
Do i understead it right, you get a Second Completely BP, if you Unluck Elite in the Normal. You get in the "Special" also?
You get a second, free and elite track unlocked, regardless of what you bought
For real? The comp chest battle pass is something you can then PAY for? wtf
It's a completely separate pass.
If i later get Elite Unlocked, does it also Unluck in the Separte Pass?
yes
the separate pass already has the elite unlocked
What players REALLY want is more opportunities to get Wesley Crusher shards. WHY is Scopely withholding them from us?
no it doesnt for me
Weāre still getting bent over and royally rogered. Itās still a big middle finger to players for all the stability and game play issues. There is no comment about how they have tanked the game and what they are planning to do to address the current state
because the token hasn't been sent out
Speak for yourself. Real players want Reg Barclay.
Ha ha ha, now get rid of all that arduously gathered latinum. š¤¦āāļø 5 points for 1 lat. 1.77 B!!! needed to finish the event. They're getting more and more "out of this world" every day. The "great" exchange, yeah right, the word "great" is also becoming more and more a synonym for "insane" these days.
I think its a first step into right direction
Are you new here?
no one asked for an additional battle pass
what players asked for:
- bugfixes and lag reduction
- less grind/wasted playtime
- some value in playing this game
- future plans with an ETA on everything
- showing responsibility and accountability
- less gaslighting and BS
thanks for reading.
i dont even presume you ever will get the message... š
waiting for the blowback when people buy the elite track for the new 'free' bp and then scopley unlocks it and then they have to deal with refunds
naw bro its Chen and t'lann all day long only those 2 matter
Spend 332,000,000 latinum to complete the event.....
Spend Three hundred thirty two million latinum...............
/inb4
no, you cant have your spent LAT back or the event fixed
0 latinum and 0 dead frogs spent on this idiocracy........
ill see your 1.6b....and raise you
I see your 0 latinum spent and I dead frogs...
This is the way.
Interstellar Dominance Event, spending Latinumāa total of 338 million Latinum... What exactly are you guys throwing in? I want some too...
~760m total spend id need in lat. NO
I'll send you better rewards for half of that lat given to me just saying
sent you a friend request
still waiting for the elite tier to get unlocked....
this is not a compentsation this is buy a nother bp we need more money for the ceo
Comp chest is broke. It just unlocks the elite track in the bonus BP, doesn't complete it. Unless we're supposed to earn our compensation by doing events every day instead of quitting.
i love that the comp chest BP isnt even the full thing, give us all 3 tiers....
So the comp will unlock elite on both battlepass? What about the people already paid for elite?
my sense is it will only unlock the 'bonus' one but....tbd
it's an additional bp
Comp is not here yet. Right? I am still waiting for additional pass. Can hammy confirm this info?
it will be a whole-a bp with both the free and elite fully filled if I read things correctly
The additional pass is hiding with the Ferengi and wave/TC passes.
Did you see the friend request. Want to follow up
Mine is the same.
Sounds like Plummet Airlines.... Going downhill rapidly š±
A paid-for battle pass as compensation is out of this world bonkers.
the tokens will roll out after the bp, in theory. otherwise we'd get the same issue we did with the bp reset stuff
Ham cam you confirm that we getting additional pass as comp or not, because I feel like a fool saying you guys took a step in right direction
Thanks Scopely. This is the first time in 6-7 years that I've received a really good compensation gift. Thank you. š
That is the irony: as compensation, we have to earn it ourselvesāsince, in an attempt to bring us back into the game, they make us work for it.
this doesnt feel like what the announcement intended so give a little time
- I believe it is the intent of the comp for all of the milestones to be unlocked. 2) I would not be suprised if they managed to screw that up
Nice.
im defending and haven't received the tokens yet š I have trust.. ish
Thank you!
Is it intended to unlock in parallel with the main BP as we do events, given that it only needs 80k points to fully unlock?
mine just tried to unlock the elite pass i already had. and nothing happened. even rebooted and checked spocks club
Careful ghost. Stranger danger
check the battlepass tab
yep unlock token arrived on eu139 just 10min ago
got some kind of bp token but it not activated anything, also didnt get missing points š©
Its in season pass section
and now fix the contnuum refinery please cant exchange group and solo borg cube armada stuff for revenant
I see what has happened. They were lazy and used the same "points" item for the bonus pass, and so if they gift those points then they will also affect the original pass.
I just love the rationale of, you know that thing that broke the game? As compensation, we are going to give you a battle pass for free!!
hrm so I see the new pass but no points towards it - im ok if i have to earn it provided im given the properly opportunity
nah, it seams people that already purchased elite BP not going to get any compensation, not so sure i'm going to spend any money on this game for some time now
If you bought the regular battle passed comment do you still get anything?
this is not true
This is an incredible comp chest, thank you to everyone who was involved and pushed for this!
i did not get anything , and picked up comp chest ?
<@&509690795536941056> We seem to be missing most of the unlocked milestones in the compensation pass
i didnt, yet, either. They have to get the bp out THEN the points though
Gotta do the bp event every day same as the original bp
those 3 tiers are likely points you earned since the pass unlocked - not the free ones granted. read the past to understand the future.
let's wait and see then
got the unlock
Incorrect: "Both bonus Battle Passes will include fully unlocked Free and Elite tracks, featuring the same currencies, materials, and Officer shards as their counterparts. (The Mythic Track will not be included.)"
Unlocked does not mean completed
we saw what happens when they give the points before the bp - just have patience
if you say fully unlocked, why we all only get the first three steps... Fully means the whole pass is unlocked to claim and not doing events to be able to claim... another Bug?
pending announcement/clarification being made
Have patience and take this as a massive win
even if I DO have to earn it "unlocked not completed" -- I'm fine with that
Look at the last Milestone it takes 8 Dailies and its fully unlocked or less if we see another 30k one
So, there are only stipulations after its released? How very Scopely.
So, whenever the term "bonus battlepass" has been used in the past (in those cases, for purchase), it included all milestones being completed
The comp bp is scoring at a 10% ratio compared to the regular bp. 1500 points...is that intentional?
I STARTED SPENDING AGAIN WOOT!!! GF may get less Starbucks but, worth for me. Hello Dauntless my new friend.
Have 1 complete communication on how the free comp works before just launching it would save all of this confusion...
that's not how I read it and I've gotten the token and it unlocked the elite tier but did not fully complete anything
yea found it š¤¦š»āāļø thanks anyway
Yeah thats true š
Think about what happened previous when massive points adjustment. The whole thing crash. May have to progress again but as long as the bp is mucking about.
aye I may have misunderstood - I'm 100% ok with having to earn it tho. Unlocked not equaling completed (provided I have enough time TO complete) is ok with me
Same
16Days should work
Lag just caught up. Took 5 minutes, but, it did score
lag just caught up
@rigid vapor you really have to work in your communication in the announcements.... 
so some folks can see the bonus battlepass? I cannot. it isn't anywhere it should be and i rebooted
Also here is a pro tip. when all previous times we got/bought a bonus battlepass it worked immediately. So if you give one then after you have to explain that it doesn't work like every other one before, you are doing it wrong.
glad I wasn't holding my breath a bonus battlepass with half of what was in the original battlepass just so they could make sure it was completed by the end of arc. This is on top of already gutting the rewards we even had in regular battlepass so think about it guys its half of a gutted battlepass and made to seem like this is a comp for the past several weeks of issue's....
aye I was wrong. I'm ok with the need for completion, as long as we CAN complete. Which sounds covered
If you already had the battlepass this comp chest is useless
it's a second bp - with the elite "paid for" already. you'll get compensation in the form of "free" stuff
Looks like someone is vying for a CM role
better way to approach this would be:
"okay, we heard your complaints and will send all of you enough points to instant complete this new battle pass"
so a "compensation gift" with no strings attached would be the way
mmm looked at my outpost refinery and no xtra goodies
nope, I have a well paying job in healthcare software development. I wouldnt go back to customer support for any reason lol
I think the problem is that they were lazy and used the same point type as the existing bp, so it would also affect that one. Which would be too much comp, apparently
Okay, I claimed this "gift", is something supposed to happen?
but, if im gonna complain loudly when I dont like something then I should defend loudly when I do -- that's just being an honroable person to me
the 'bonus pass' showed up for some alliance members after turning in their token as expected. But never showed up for others who also got the token
did your device set on fire or explode?
no? then its just fine
No Ali3n if ou already had the battlepass this doesnt double your loot you get nothing
Youāre right they are lazy. Itās the weekend and they needed a quick āfixā to silence the baying hoard at the gates long enough so they can break something else
<@&509690795536941056> I appreciate the extra BP with an unlocked Elite track. That's a decent compensation, for several technical issues that plagued this release.
"We know this has been a frustrating release, and we really appreciate you sticking with us while we worked through these issues."
What I kind of dislike of from that statement that it puts your efforts in the past. There are a lot of ongoing unresolved issues that needs addressing:
- Choice Tokens need to return
- Officer Depot Token need to stay in their current form and the roster needs expanding
- AT needs to be reworked to be as "good" as before this mont's change. Then it needs to be improved to be actually enjoyable
- Arc Loop Rewards need reworking, hostiles need reworking, building needs reworking.
- Leslie
- [... All the things I forgot, just scroll through this Channel]
While the changes are a disgrace towards yours paying (!) and f2p customers, I can't tell you how to run your game. However I need an official statement if those highly unpopular and damaging changes are here to stay. Until those changes are reverted I'm not going to spend a dime. If they stay permanent I'm done (with this game).
so wait, lemme get this correct. we get a "free" BP with reg and elite, but we still have to do all the work for it? uhhhh.....what?
this is wrong - you should have a bp in the Season Passes tab (new) and one in the Events tab (the one you paid for)
I didn't have any u locked, I refuse to give them any more $$
yes
Oh look, the liars went back and edited the original announcement
Why di you talk if you have nothing useful to say?
ok that explains a lot thank you. in the past they put a 2nd battlepass beside the first one, they didn't hide it in another tab
what was edited/said previously?
We have to work for the comp that should be free what a joke
Guffa I understand but that doesnt answer why when I accepted the pass I got nothing xtra
yeah, wonky at best - free is free tho
Difference is new "unlocked elite" vs old "fully unlocked free and elite"
you should have the same bp in 2 tabs now events tab = existing -- season passes = new
<@&509690795536941056> @tidal notch
so you gave out free battle pass to everyone. So what about us people who paid to unlock that already. Compensation or refund
I claimed the token, but i already had the Tranquility BP, im suppoed to see 2 tranqs now? i dont
well same splash and rewards - different names? or is the different name because I opsed up
again, it's a separate pass, has nothing to do with your purchase of the first battlepass
Then only reason you would be upset if you were planning to complete material tasks otherwise just work on your main BP and you good
it's a completely seperate one, they hid the new one in the seasons passes tab
No point in complaining as it goes in 1 ear and out the other. They are so far away from what the players expect for comp
sad but true
they are totally disconnected from reality (including CMs)
the "compensations" are weaponized here only to disctract the unhappy customers
This should have been a elite daily pass for the month for the comp so many issues and it just gets worse
make it new and fun again and people will pay. instead of Duo waves. solo waves were an improvement. Next i expect it's going to be trio waves
Making us work for a compensation, even if it's a nice one, is a bit of a mixed signal.
they already announced they are sending out points to complete the bonus one
We will earn 2-3 milestones in the comp BP a day just by doing the regular BP dailies. Calm down people
where?
Donāt forget this is only star fleet acadamy part 1. Thereās likely to be more of this crud trio waves speciality ships useless grids
It appears in the Gift claims. It's a token which unlocks a separate battle pass in the Season Passes tab under Events
Incorrect. We will earn the free BP at the rate of 2-3 milestones a day by doing the regular BP dailies.
THIS! Will there be any statement about the whole situation?
<@&509690795536941056> While the compensation is acceptable in regards to its value I'd have preferred it came without us having to earn it, because this still feels like a psychological manipulation to keep us "engaged" in the game instead of a proper direct apology.
This also doesn't address the fact that all the following player adversarial (I originally used Cory Doctorow's invented word that correctly describes the process you're applying to this game but the moderation bot blocks it ...) changes need to be rolled back:
- Disappearance of choice tokens
- Replacement of the depot tokens' event store by a loot box
- Alliance Tournament restricted rerolls and additional pay-to-win tasks
- Officers' nerfing (Leslie being the latest example)
You need to restore the value for the time and money we put into the game.
We have to spend 322 million lat to compete this sms?
Ygbfkm.
Theres too much LAT in the game, so they now want all our LAT!
It feels like a manipulation because it IS a manipulation.
Look at all the thumbs up on the announcement from the easily placated brigade.
they can pay me for my lat i earned it from packs I bought and treasury I bought and earned its mine and won't be used for events so they can make me a real world offer or they can get the pixels back when game goes offline
My other problem with the compensation chest is for the issues the last few weeks, try the last 12 months.
By now, Iāve come to the conclusion that active players actually have to earn Scop⦠This game is definitely going down the drain, and Scop has clearly realized it⦠There are betterāand freeāgames out there that donāt have to struggle with so many bugs.
At this point, I actually feel rather sorry for Scop and their strategy⦠They act as if theyāre offering something worthwhile here⦠But seriouslyāin the broader gaming market, this thing is absolute junkā¦
You want us to burn 354 Million latinum?
Ā£850 worth of latinum?
What the hell is wrong with you
The WD Battlepass, even the paid track, are both straight up awful. The rewards are terrible
then don't buy it. vote with your wallet
I don't even have that much since I went f2p because Scopely is hororible now.
Its a hard pass for me, resources spend vs rewards are not even worth first milestone to do
And now Scopley probably thinks itās all forgotten, but no ā weāll be watching very closely to see how you treat us, the players, from now on, and how things pan out for STFC
@tidal notch Tell Scopely the bonus BP thing was a good idea and greatly appreciated. (And see, I can give Scopley props when it's deserved)
The compensation is okayish.
I echo the otherās sentiment in that an apology from Scopley is needed to begin to rebuild a community relationship.
Otherwise - itās going to continue to be Scopley doing Scopley things - and the community being unresponsive and unwilling to move past the last many months of transgressions.
There are a lot of things that need to be sorted out; you know exactly what needs to be done. Scopley, show that youāre listening to the players and know what needs to be done. Get STFC back on track.
We wonāt forget update 90 any time soon, and weāll always judge you by how you treat us in the future.
I could care less about a relationship. i just want quality. This comp aint bad either and those whining about having to earn it need to realize it comes along with your regular bp points anyway so it's no extra effort.
it was smart because it keeps people logging in, dont break the addiction/cycle/habit of logging in daily after being upset, ill give them that. as long as you are doing that, the comp is pretty good.
If people really dont like this compensation, here are some sample compensation instead off previous announcements
5/4 300 private cipher
5/2 40 k paragon token ( select ops)
4/14 3 loyalty chest. 3 dalen, 3 fcm data, 3 cochrane
4/13 10k bp points, 1 loyalty chest, 1 dalen, 1 fcm data, 1 cochran
2/27 1000 quark vouchers
2/25 1000 quark vouchers
2/12 10 elite daily rewards, 20k valentine, 8100 ferengi pass pts, 2 vgr ila , 20k or 10k bp points depending ops
2/11 40 elite reward , 2 daily loyalty, 35k officer token, 2 vgr ila
Really prefer these instead of a bp even if u have to do game task?
More value overall in bp then those listed examples
But itās the fact that scamley are making you earn it rather than gifting it. So if you were in a car crash and broke both you legs it would be like making you drag yourself to the bank each day to withdrawal it.
And what if we bought the pass already š¤
While not a complaint about the comp, there is the realization how hard it would have slapped if we still had Choice.
its a new pass under the season pass tab
For those asking Scopely for an apology....what good has that ever done? For them to apologize and lie to us, saying they will do better just to double down on doing the opposite is more insulting than their silence.
Action matters more than paying lip service. We need action to turn this game around, make it fun and make it something people want to spend time and money on.
Nice idea with the bonus bp as compensation! Ty guys!
We also need action to give some servers a merges like 91 š
A decline in login numbers has been observed, and an attempt is now being made to lure players back on a daily basis by offering additional free content as a BP. If this were a truly sincere form of compensation, the proceeds would have simply been handed over to us playersāall at onceāin a chest.
Thus, the community is once again merely being strung along to keep playingāa game that, unfortunately, only breeds further dissatisfaction due to its bugs and the failure to incorporate community feedback.

I think the compensation was great, much better than we have had the last year. This actually helps here and now
They canāt even get there comps right 𤣠š š
compensation in the form of a free battlepass was put forward to Scopely by various content creators, on Twitch and Youtube following a poll of the watchers at the time, so on this occasion they have simple done as suggested to them.
I tried to post and it did t work a few times. Do the actually censore what you canāt post inthe bug channel ?
Asking a content creator about their preferred form of compensation is like asking our German Minister of Economic Affairs whether gas is the best solution for energy generation.
It is what it is, I can't play the game without connection issues on 2 devices, it's just frustrating and that's why I stopped playing. And more people will step away fr the game because of the current situation.
I appreciate the gesture but itās not going to make it better and none of the games issues will be addressed by it.
STFC is the only game I know, that has to have an inbuilt compensation mechanic because itās always going wrong.
Think about that for a moment and realise just how fundamentally flawed that is as a customer relation/retention strategy.
The game is broken because the developer is broken. Itās not going to be fixed until that issue is sorted. Some one within Scopely needs to step up and sort it out.
Seems reading isn't your strong point, it wasn't the content creator it was the community's will, and they weren't asked, the suggestion was put forward via channels open to them... other than getting all the facts wrong, I agree about the connection part, but actually think the battlepass is fair compensation and things need to improve going forward.
Loved Rev's open letter to the CEO. Fully agree with the sentiment that the STFC decison makers hold us in disdain. Their decisions are punitive and hateful. Most recent survey I flat out told them they either need to knock it off or shut the game down.
I wrecked a motorcycle and broke my arm and still worked an entire shift before going to the hospital, that count? It is free if you think about the fact that it's basically a bonus added to your existing bp. no extra effort, just collect rewards.
I'd call that person an enabler. Why pay for something that's always so messed up? I make a crazy amount of money and have few bills besides utilities and this game won't see a cent unless things get fixed. Don't feed the beast.
Like that .., and again. It wonāt let me post. The screenshots from support.
Nothing from scaly is free. Thereās always a price to pay.
Next time tell your bot to bring it's A game and make it a solid week.
100% manipulative it is designed to quiet the backlash more than actually fix what caused it. working as intending from the lot of responses though /clap
The compensation pack did not enable the elite section on the battlepass as advertised
in the passes tab not reg bp section*
Itās a new BP, by wave BP etc., mine is full of āmostlyā officers I have maxed. Still need pic Hugh and S31G. Zeph doesnāt count, others are maxed
Ok so I have no clue. I have battle pass. But got a free one for whatever and it shows a battle pass with no points⦠whats the story here?
Thank you for the compensation BP. Hopefully there will also be changes to this update/arc. Bring back choice tokens, officer depot choice, Free Leslie, return AT to its former configuration. Pleaseš
Soooo is anyone aware if they changed warp ranges to systems or something? My Minerva can no longer make it to Sassafras which now has a warp range of 1700 with the same hostile crew I used daily. Also none of my 3 Selkies can now make it to Jaicoo where they mined daily before.
That's super constructive. Thank you, as always, what a champ
sounds like a fleet commander change
Dang that's it I did do that completely forgot Kirk affected warp range! thanks!
You're awesome, thank you.
Just got FC Khan and wanted to try him out lol
RARE POSITIVE FEEDBACK: I just did two elite solo waves. The GS31 beam fired immediately on me clicking the button. No 5-15 second spool up. It worked! Great job!
set yourselves free.
It's definitely nice that the Cube and GS beams work faster now, and this is definitely a very good compensation. It feels too little to late though...
Can we please stop calling all the scheduled maintenance downtime mid-month patches. Having one every 3 days doesn't make it mid month, it's just maintenance
So I got the Token in the gifts for the free BP. But the Free BP is still not showing up. any tips?
you don't have it here?
No I dont.
So from having, maybe, a maintenance every 2-3 weeks we are now on 1 every week. That really says a lot about the state of this game, let alone the quality of the Devs who it seems couldn't program an abacus. šŖ
I restarted. Tried diff devices also
another 24 hours passed . Still no reply .
@tidal notch u forget me bruh ?
You have 4 accounts? Are you a masochist or something? š¤Æ
Took scopely 3 days to reply to me, then sent 2 messages back to back same time stamp, 2nd 1 saying we haven't heard back from you so we'll close the case
Well, the top players on my server just quit the game, and 2 of my officers that have played with me for multiple years are gone as of today.
The obvious cash grab with the tournament changes have made a lot of folks question their leisure time priorities and I know many of us are just really sad.
And since arcs are no longer tied to the month, shouldn't it be "mid arc"?
the other one had nothing in it though, mid month placebo update
Gotta admit having another mid month maintenance after the last one which was done on Tuesday the 5th 3 Days Ago kinda makes me feel that the powers that be on here and over at scopley HQ doesn't know what middle of the month is. Now if I'm wrong I'll gladly take ownership of that but 2 maintenance before the actual 15th of May which has 31 days in it is before mid month guys come on I know I might be being very picky here but really y'all shouldn't be making these rookie mistakes.
its a weekly mid-month maintenance
Just take the mid month out of it and take a seat at the adult table jeez lol not trying to be rude to you but man sometimes I feel like I'm one of the smart people with what I read in here or see in messages and that's saying a lot with all thw grammer and punctuation mistakes I make
Boy, I sure do have much less alliance tournament credits than normal, great way to have me engage less š
At this rate, Scopely is going to lose the Star Trek license. Paramount will probably hand the next generation of Star Trek games to another studio that actually respects the franchise and its players. Star Trek deserves better than a battle pass and $140 pack simulator. Too many players are quitting, communities are shrinking, and people are getting tired of being treated like wallets instead of fans.
We should start emailing paramount about the situation
Its a shame they dont allow us to transfer to different servers
It would be nice if I could get to finish a wave without lag stopping me from moving my ships
So this just happened on Rev's Twitch. Rev received a message direct from Scopely's CMs.
"[...] happening immediately is a pause on Alliance Tournaments while we alter the balance and inclusivity of the feature. This is a start and we will have more to do in the future."
let me translate that: we didn't make as much money on the tournament as last time and players are mad so let's pretend to care about the players being mad while we fix the monetization
that's the most accurate translation I have ever seen
āWeāve decided you havent spent enough so next month weāll add more paid packs so you all feel included more!ā
absolutely because they can see that we aren't going to blatantly spend what they want us to spend or project us to spend
I have a feeling they'll implement something like what DJz proposed last night
I am so glad I stopped spending any money on this game. I feel so much better already.
I donāt think they realized the amount of planning playing and even paying throughout the month people do at least partially for the fun of the AT. The start of these was maybe a different idea for them but it became something more adding and growing it without turning it into just another cash grab would be nice. It should be a monthly party for f2p and p2p with alliance growth and team play ⦠just my little opinion
Also fix incursions and bring back choice rewards please
Shame he didnāt succeed in getting their attention in relation to bugs, lag, pop up ads, excessive monetisation of everything, nerfing officers, etc. Itās almost like they only pretended he gained their attention after they checked how much money theyāve made from the new and unimproved AT. But that would be cynical, wouldnāt it⦠š¤
It was one of the few feel good events we had left that they didnāt try and take us to the cleaners for.
um, so let me get this straight, first you shafted the free players by making Alliance Tournaments heavily paid again, then you pause them half cooked (not sure now long this now takes, but clearly it has not yet finished) effectively shafting the paying players who took part in the new paid version of the ATs? and you will without a doubt try to make it look like 'oh we heard your feedback so we are acting on it' and not admit that you are just addicted to shafting players left right and centre š šæ weird hill to die on but ok
don't cross post
<@&509690795536941056>
Alliance Tournament alone cannot be "repaired" without bringing back choice reward tokens - and we need officer depot tokens back.
Give us the opportunity to develop individual playstyles and strategies, to outwit the "system," and to have greater freedom in selecting the officers and tools required to do so.
These freedoms will once again boost enjoyment of the gameāand might loosen purse strings, too.
I am sooo glad I stopped spending money on this cluster. Nothing but some firings and pulling down the game to fix it is going to make me believe it's worth my money again. Just weak bandaids is not gonna do it.
They wonāt bring back choice rewards. The long play here - was to remove free paths to progression. Elimination of choice rewards and a laughable g5 scrapping experience does that.
Iād wager money AT changes were implemented to drive players away from the event - and since the revolt is so bad - Scopley has the ammunition to turn this pause into a cancel without backlash.
That's what Disco summon is for!
youve mae the game terrible, tourney tasks dont load , lag never end, mysterious pips that dont go away even after youve open everything no wonder your losing players
Retired OPS71 here - I was there and saw the trend beginning with scopely beeing bought by savvy group.
We only know a few of the numbers but I guess the costs to maintain the code + new content ist significant higher than in the other games. - paired with 20% Player loss within 1 Year.
Either they make it to change the direction together with the player base or we will enter mainenance mode sooner than everyone is hoping.
Giving a comp package, but to give it for the far weaker event just tells me nothing has been learned. it's all measured and 'how little can we get away with'
Ominous since the last few times they've 'paused' an event it actually just got removed forever. Good luck getting the stuff in AT store for those too late I guess
<@&509690795536941056> I want to first say thank you for acknowledging the player outrage with the alliance tournament, and news that it is going to be rebalanced for "greater inclusivity." I want to believe that the resulting AT runs will be more like the recent past. Unfortunately, I don't see a track record with STFC that is encouraging for this.
I also do want to say thank you for the extra battle pass.
Now, while this may be a step in the right direction, we players are also acutely aware of STFC's general pattern of making anti-player changes, then saying "sorry" with a comp chest or other comp package, while not actually resolving the anti-player changes that created the problems in the first place. The motto seems to be to "act now and say sorry with a comp chest later." To that, I quote, "To obey is better than sacrifice." In other words, it is better to not create the need for a comp chest in the first place. I get that some things, like server outages, are unplanned oopsies and worthy of a comp chest. But when the thing causing player outrage is a planned, intended feature, or an ongoing problem that never gets fixed, that is unacceptable.
So, we have word that AT is good to be adjusted based on player feedback. But what about taking away the choice rewards and officer depot system? As has been pointed out, we were previously promised more player choice systems. Now these are being taken away. STFC's promises are like the promises from the U.S. government to the native American people. Broken promises, as soon as keeping the promises are no longer convenient.
So, we need more than just the AT being addressed. We need clear responses about the choice rewards and officer depot choice system, too.
Please pass this on to the correct leadership team. Thank you.
Iād wager that if Scopley stopped placing bandaids on bullet holes in favor of actually fixing the game and repairing customer relations their costs would substantially drop.
Along with that - anyone who has participated in designing, approved designs for, and at this point is markedly overpaid for under delivering should be replaced.
just want to second that officer depot and choice tokens are every bit as big a problem as the tournament
the new officer tokens will not allow new players to get the officers they need the way the officer depot tokens do
choice tokens and the reduction of materials overall in the free and $20 bp will also not assist in your goal of pushing everyone into g6 if indeed that is your goal
My biggest AT wish is for the store to remove items you have maxxed out. There is zero point in buying more of most items once they are unlocked. You either need a spreadsheet to keep track of what is useless/still useful to get more of, or spend a lot of time going to the store/checking the ft/artificats etc/back to store/repeat.
Is the ingame. Chat feature frozen or broken?
Waste of time talking to these guys they are only here to gaslight and ban people
Broken like half the officers
I appreciate todayās comp chest. It was a much better great start.
Love the transparency on the tournaments and the comp ( weāve been waiting for a bit on, I lost track of all the issues lately) <@&509690795536941056>. Hopefully itās followed up with a roadmap and a time line. Letās not forget we have plenty of other issues making people disengage, stop spending and leaving the game. Hopefully ATs is one step in the right direction but there are plenty of other steps that also need to be addressed.
<@&509690795536941056> After the announcement that tournaments are going to be paused for reevaluation, I think it would be in everybody's best interest if they also prevented relegation for the currently running tournament. My alliance has a lot of people so disgusted with things that they're either on break from the game or they're just ignoring the tournament.
relegation has been raised, but don't have any additional information yet
The comp chest battle pass didn't open anything up for me
Look under the season pass tab
I hope this can be finished in the 16 days (17 including today), without it being a money grab and having to buy BP points.
It's only 80k points to finish it. I got 10k for today alone. If you can't finish it then š¤·
Oh it will, look at the last milestone on your extra pass, I think its 80,000 and you get 10k daily
<@&509690795536941056> and <@&509691205798592532> in light of this announcement #ā-official-announcements message another show of good faith would be to ensure NO alliances get relegated for the current run
It has been raised, but no info atm
awesome sry for the ping in multiple places but wanted to make sure it got raised, sounds like you are already on it ā¦thanks for the great work š
Thanks @finite mural
I wish they would add trading into the game we need a trade route or a trading hub for players or a market for trading supplies and resources!
Lost another player in fleet today, thanks Scopley!
And incursions
<@&509690795536941056> āBitte ein Ticket erƶffnen wem Punkte fehlenā wƤhrenddessen Scopley āwir haben nie gesagt das wir auf die Tickets auch reagierenā auch ne Mƶglichkeit um die Unzufriedenheit weiter zu steigern
<@&509690795536941056> what will happen with Emerald Chain advancement when AT is paused? A number of players rely on those Emerald Chain advancements, and it just seems like every bad move Scopely makes sets off a chain of additional screw ups.
Certainly it shouldn't take that long to put AT back to where it was, when nobody asked for these changes in the first place.
think scopely shld increase the number of alliance levels. 60-70 or 80 maybe. it's just a number change so shld be easily done. if they know what they're doing ofcš
Credit where due: the bonus Elite Battle Pass and the Alliance Tournament pause are real steps. Not perfect, but real.
The Battle Pass still has to be completed, which is a little wild for compensation. But compared to the usual "sorry chest," this actually felt like value coming back to players.
The AT pause matters too because it shows Scopely understood this was not just whining about rewards. The system itself felt overtuned, exhausting, and spend-pressure heavy.
And Iāll be honest: it worked on me. I bought the Dauntless after holding off. But that is not a blank check. That purchase happened because they made meaningful repair moves. Future spending is gated behind continued proof: QoL delivery, restored value, less aggressive monetization during broken releases, and actual follow-through on community feedback.
I would have rather them give us our choice rewards back than buy us off at 20 dollars a pop.
I concur, there's still meaningful steps required right
- A concrete QoL burn-down list with dates.
- Restoration and protection of player value mechanics.
- Better separation between bug recovery and new paid offers.
- Clear evidence that community feedback is shaping design decisions before damage hits revenue.
The kirshara just turned 2 years old and still can't do what it was designed to do, be a queue... never expect anything, especially seemingly simple ones.
Can we get points issued for the bonus pass to catch It up to the original one?
If this would be too much of a handout I understand but right now half the pass will be wasted
I think it's smaller requirements per level so should be completable
Still increments of 10k for me
Final milestone is like 80k so 8 days to finish I think, easily done
im almost so done with this game..... instead of being stupid and adding/changing stuff that doesn't make any sense to your playerbase fix the damn bugs....
again armada's broken, AT re rolls not working (while the new AT 5uck5 hard), Lagging is crazy yet again, chat broken, launcher issue's, and can go on forever with all the broken stuff ingame.
You all are doing a fine job in chasing away your playerbase š
<@&509690795536941056> I mean this is an issue too, according to this message a customer service agent āshouldā respond in 12-24 hours, yet Tribble-shoot tries to close the ticket/convo at exactly 24 hours?
<@&509690795536941056> Why did you leave me and the other players who support you financially without compensation? Why were we left without compensation? You could have just given us all the rewards for all three Battle Passes, but no, you gave us nothing. It's simply disrespectful to us!!!
Look under season pass for the bonus pass
what happens to the excess blueprints for the NSEA protector if i have extra?
Hey guys, cancelling the tournament is not cool. We invested a lot of stuff and rerolls there to get at least some new tournament currency via the league leaderboard and those are now lost to us. Since the 20k tasks are out of reach that was the only possibility f2p to get some.
Better let it run through the last day and just let no alliance descend.
<@&509690795536941056> <@&509691205798592532>
(i appreciate that rebalance shall be made though, of course)
Scopely from my side thank you for the free BP! I have also been a huge complainer., but I cannot ignore this. First time , now going for 6 years I will experience a Elite BP. Just not in my budget with the South-African economy. The extra builders and research slots was actually birthday presents. My wife would kill me I I spend that money during a normal month. Even scored some lat in some events in this arc. I still cannot complete everything and stop early even after I do additional tasks. With the New BP I can do something extra and it is actually achievable. So from my it is a big thank you!
Ah okay thx
on the note of pausing events: can we get the hurak armadas back pls? or the store with the opportunity to get rewarded for having invested in ships with premium mirror
Even if the new Battlepass is found it's not obvious it's the compensation battlepass. Name it here and make it easier for people to realise what's what.
You might also ask whom may be concerned to add a description to it in game so that there is some visibility of it. Or rename it Compensation Battlepass.
I understand that some 'rebalancing', was needed for the AT. There have already been many comments about that issue. Given the situation I have to choose the grinder tasks. i.e., kill lots of a specific type of hostiles. I'm a level 70 account so it's just 1 pt per hostile. So having to kill 1600 hostile. We also have lives outside the game and this is too much of a time commitment. How about a little "rebalancing" on these types of tasks as well to reflect the ops level of the player.
With regard to sigma rerolls ( a complely pointless conversion in my book) i now have 3210 of them (having just converted my old rerolls) what use is the 10 ? Are you going to reward 90 sigma reroles at some point in the future ? Or am i going to have 10 rerolls in my inventory that i can never use. Remember i was forced to convert by yourselves or lose them
well if we go by scopley history anything that helps us is easy to fix. If it's something that doesn't help us its hard to fix according to history of course which means it won't be fast or east to revert at changes if anything what they'd do is code the refresh tokens that were used before back into the 10k tasks keep everything the same except the new rerolls is used for any task that has the new currency keeping them basically paid tasks and the old rerolls for the older currency that most of us dont need as those things are pretty maxed for some of us
alot of empty promises and vague marketing speech. and dont forget they already have zero credibility.
the only thing they needed to do is to rollback AT to its previous state and then never touch it again. but they refused to do so...
It has been 2,5 days on my sideā¦
the insane high amounts of NPCs to be killed are "balanced" around bot-uses, and not regular players. that is why those tasks are almost impossible to complete for us normalos.
Any idea what change you guys made to the software that causes my phone to overheat now? Doing a wave yesterday made my phone run so hot it started throttling.
This is a different video than @everyone is used to, so bear with me. For context: Mr. Javier & Mr. Walter sat down for an interview to talk about the 15 years of Scopely and their future. They also took the time to speak about the vision and paradigm the company has in regards to it's players. As my friend Lostin73 said, "their vision isn't STF...
I donāt generally watch any CC, past or present. Scopley has their thumb on these folks and in general they cannot be relied on for impartiality.
That said Rev was non renewed from the approved CCās last year - because he took up the plight of the players.
Shocking right? A CC fights for the players and gets non renewed.
More shocking? Subsequently the PAC was dissolved.
Not shocking at all.
Lots of discussions and theories are in play about the holding company Saudi PIF, and the loss of profitability in the LIV Golf endeavor with funding ending in 2026. Lots of discussions abound relating to the UAE leaving OPEC.
Any company with involvement in the PIF is under major scrutiny- with a seeming profit at any cost directive.
While Iām glad someone decided to take the player plight front and center to perhaps the only two capable of having an impact - until those with financial control are on board - nothing will change.
A loss of 35k - 40k customers in a 12 month period should be alarming to absolutely any company.
Now the word "balance" from Scopely scares me. Just make the old AT game again, only this time without the bugs.
Its not showing for alot of people.
Nah, AT had become a bit of a joke at G6 with choice tokens. Zero effort; just get some G6 from event store and done.
It would have been less controversial to freeze the existing tasks and store items and just introduce the new tasks, currency, rerolls and rewards as another part of AT. I expect that would have been harder to code, but it would have avoided this conflict while allowing the older rewards in AT become legacy. Itās what happened to the AwayTeam rewardsā¦
@finite mural Good job on the Tournement pause and rework. Itās needed. This last update to it wasā¦.off.
g o c mats seem harder to get from events the choice tokens were nice for those mats. AT play was a bonus.
<@&509690795536941056> "we will be pausing Alliance Tournaments while we make adjustments to improve balance and the overall experience."
My trust in Scopely is so low that the way I'm reading this is: "Since you don't wanna pay up we're just gonna take AT away entirely and we're gonna replace it by something that doesn't give even half of the progression of the current watered-down one"
I sincerely hope you prove me wrong though.
Also needs to be brought back:
- choice tokens
- event store for depot tokens
- original Leslie
<@&509690795536941056> <@&509691205798592532> the free Battlepass is a start. Rebalancing the actual Alliance tournament is start.
But you should stop releasing the same content in a new grind loop every month.
Every 2nd month we get an additional new grind loop. And every following month we get a new ship. This cycle must be broken.
- Fix the game
- add content on quarterly basis
- you can rerun many events from existing content
You don't need to pause the tournament, just revert it to how it was and add more rewards, noone wanted an "upgrade"
all they really needed to do was reduce the G5-6 mat task points from 10k down to 5K (as a lazymans punishment) and keep choice tokens in the BPs ... simple.
ppl buy BP for choice, can 'lazy fast track' a task but its worth a lazymans amount of points (5k).
best compromise ever
First thing is to say thanks for the rethink on the changes to tournenents. This is what is needed. But do not forget the equally unpopular and just bad changes to incursions. Please also rethink this. Just as with tounements changes were needed, but they have to be reasonable and work.
Does 5th place really get more legendary credits than 4th place?
Shh. Real competition is for the #5 spot.
guess that means 5th is finally better than 4th place see i knew my family was roght all those years when I was in sports roflmao
<@&509690795536941056>
The MACO Honors RSLB endet with the last SLB for the Event - but those have to count for the Position in the end!
Costs me 60 shards of Janeway and 55 shards of Doc!
And roll back the battle pass to award choice rewards tokens again, and roll back officer depot tokens to allowing us to choose the specific officers we want, and roll back incursions to being 24 hours so all players have a chance to participate, and...
GS-31 beam is being incredibly responsive right now.... Kudos and many thanks if this was an intentional fix (and hopefully not just a short-lived fluke)
The BP comp and acknowledgement of Alliance Tournament mishap are great first steps. So thank you for those. But... That makes silence on the other issues all the more deafening (G5 scrapping, removing choice tokens, ending the officer depot token choice selections, etc.). I hope those receive attention from you also
Can someone explain, arenāt we supposed to get both causality and elite tranquility as compensation? It says so in their announcement. I only have casuality unlocked
They never said you're getting both. The comp is a bonus battlepass, with the elite track unlocked
No he did say it but now I see in the message Tranquility is crossed out.
I have had to restart the game three times in the last hour because of freezes or full crashes. Scopely keeps adding more cash grabs but why would I give them any money when the game itself is unstable and sluggish?
The time I waste looking at a spinning icon while trying to load menus does not make me want to dump any money into the game.
No, you were never getting both
2nd day of waiting compensation bp to appear, i hope they will compensate missing points so it can be completed
Yes I understand that now
Here is an idea for AT tasks
show all tasks to each player but limit them to being done only once for that day
Game keeps crashing grrrr
We've seen Scamplay's lack of concern, and starting immediately, we no longer care or hope for any improvements. So goes the end of STFC, not with a bang but with a pathetic whimper of incompetence...
50k Revenant parts are owed to every player with the SS Revenant
You complete the free BP by doing regular BP events. It's designed to be completed by the end of the arc if you do daily BP events
to be honest, the initial unedited announcement was a little vague and some people, including myself, took it as getting both which was clarified in later edits. iāve just reached a point of apathy that ⦠whatever š itās all a too little too late and does nothing to speak of the fundamental problems we are faced with. It feels like they are handing crying children a lollipop instead of checking their own behavior.
best one yet...for 10 min
Whats going on with breen hostiles? I'm using normal grinding crew, but instead of being able to complete the event in one go, my ship is lasting 1 hit before being blown up!?
you dont when you dont have it
Skill issue
Explain
Check that all officers are present and the right officers, FCs are the same, you haven't changed FT/CTs, you're hitting the same hostiles.
Dude, i literally said the same grinding crew which includes all of the above
I just did mine they went exactly as they usually do
Gotcha..man , that sucks
What crew do you use?
Snw pike, gg31, t'pring and never had an issue doing a full grind of the 71's
Sounds like you're losing shields if they do that much in 1
Chez Scopely, pas de bug, Ƨa n'existe pas š”
This is from the Scopely website. If 500 crit mit is a 1% reduction in damage, 50,000 would be a 100% reduction. And 83,000 would be a 166% damage reduction.
Who is able to see the problem here, with these rewards for a level 61 mission?
what happened with scrapping? a few days ago I could have recycled my enterprise-d now I need to be recycling ops 70? Seriously? The Ferengi Strike again.
another scoring issue....hahaha you dont say
give us back the old AT ! !
login issues again ?!?
Seriously hate the new AT, all those rerolls for the same junk tasks. Nor did I see Q continuum tasks a single time.
Anyone else having problems with Alliance Chat where it will not post what you type?
thats been happening for weeks
Yep. Since yesterday.
am happy to see some progress made and player criticism noted so I bought mythic
but please, just give us back the old tourney
naw what y'all talking about there's never any problems with this game we're just all out there and everything is just always honky dorey in scopley world right. Now that we got that sarcasm out of the way is everyone excited to see what they gonna mess up or nerf next I know I can't wait rofl.
In pains me to think about what attrition is gonna look like if they dole out a single additional economy change or material nerf.
right now if I was scopley I'd be worried about doing anything before deciding what they gonna do with all the recent changes that started all this. Knowing them though they gonna play this down do pretty much nothing until next arc where they gonna release that one trick pony new ship we all know they gonna do and then thats when they gonna prolly reintroduce something they took away and say here have this back after much thought we were wrong to take it away or some nonsense like that.
honestly, i think one more negative change, one more anti player decision, and itās lights out for a large portion of the player base. not even bothering with archiving. just deletion. account app or both.
How can you reduce damage by more than 100%?
Why would they go back to old Tourney when you still reward them by buying the mythic pack? They already got your money
the old tournament is still there. They stole the refreshes people worked for and saved then added more garbage to to further dilute the pulls. This is really stupid. Adding mythic rewards that you have to pay to win is fine, taking away one thing after another from players isn't going to lead to getting paid more, it will lead to unemployment
You aren't reducing their base damage, you are doing along with all the other bonues. So it something gets +300% damage and your crit mitigation does -200% damage, it still gets a +100% damage bonus. To truly deduce it down to 0 you would have to have a reduction of 100% more than all the bonuses.
Scopely math, you might add +3000% damage then 'reduce' damage 110% leaving a base + 2890% damage
Morale in my alliance is down. Admirals of other alliances on the server have reached out to me to discuss just how apathetic their players are about the changes and they are losing folks who are quitting.
Novel idea. Make the game fun again and give people things with value to them so they have a reason to spend.
These changes to officer depot tokens and alliance tournaments among other really dumb changes are creating a new gulf between the players who already benefited and the ones that can no longer catch up any time soon. You want people to gain levels and encourage them to spend? Stop using them as whipping posts and making them hate doing their daily grind.
Great job scopley on rebranding tourny rerolls, they still do nothing but bring back the event you just rerolled to get a better tourny event. You wonder why people are quiting!!!!!!!!!!!
the funny part was we had that happening tons before they added a bunch more paid tasks into the mix this month now it's even worse
I gave up on alliance tourney. I had no refreshes (I think cause I just hit 68 and now need fancy schmancy new refresh tokens?) and even if I did I'm sick of rolling refreshes for 20 minutes to get anything other then the same 6 $$$ tasks. Hows about doing away with the refresh and just give us a list of all the tasks and let us pick what we want to do Scopely?
<@&509690795536941056> howās the 76 and 710 merge coming along?
So, we were upset with the changes to AT and requested that it go back to how it was. And in response, you are just taking them away? Instead of making it much harder to do the tasks and get the rewards without mortgaging our homes, you are making it impossible for us to get the rewards by punishing us further and taking away AT. All in the guise of āmaking things betterā?
scopley logic in action makes 100% sense right rofl
yea if your going to refresh AT tasks it should be ALL the tasks not just 1 and most of the time it's only a low lvl task that gets refreshed
Cant make this up scopley.......
if all of those could be hit for little or no damage and you got all the loot. they would declare an emergency and patch it at once.
Live shot of new AT?
Lets see if we can list scopely's recent bad decisions that are destroying player satisfaction
- removed choice tokens
- tripled the price of officer badges in tournament store
- Stole our hard work saving AT Refreshes and offered a pitance in return
- removed refreshes from completing 10k Tasks
- Added far more spend only tasks to the normal part of the tournament and diluted the previous ones while removing refreshes
- Taking away Officer depot token choices.
- adding a new version of ultras with dilution and raising the price of rares within that while making it random so it's not likely to be very useful
- Changing the battle pass so it pays less than before while adding the option to pay even for more to get less than previous times when they just sold you a 2nd battlepass prefinished.
- Not listening to players
I'm sure others can add to the list this is simply off the top of my head.
Every evening in our AC i'm listening to over 80 people constantly complaining about how the game is going. Maybe fix it so i can stop hearing all the complaints and while they are still here.
Nerfed WDBP, and extra boned 45-60 players by not giving us the solo start comp despite our solo starts being nerfed as well
nerfed broken rod sourcing for f2p despite explicitly saying that they were going to increase the sourcing
"improved" field rations by removing the latinum that was helping f2p growth
I predict the next nerf will be to ferengi exchange pass
Don't forget removing officer flash passes and going to a 4 week schedule in order to get 1 more full month pass per year
Too many bugs.
Still having re,,,, i mean,,, technical difficulties
so playing a news account with some friends who are in a high end Allaince. should be fine right well i can not complete a new player task without leaving the alliance just to complete this.....that seems stupid to have to do.
yeah those scale up as the alliance grows in rank
and so it shoulld, but putting it as a Rooster block for a new player event seems silly
no argument there is a lot of silly going on right now. epic levels
Or should I say Mythic levels of dumb
Yeah, but the major mess ups could be smoothed over a bit if they just cleaned up all this low hanging fruit. like spend a couple of days and have a contest with your programers seeing who can squash the mos tpetty stuff. we would get a patch note like 8 pages long i bet
Quality of life issues hang around for 6 months or years. If you want to see action find something they think lowers income and you will see rapid movement.
Ever since G7 was released I have to switch between g7 and g6 systems repeatedly to get a screen to load
It will load but it shows a hallucination of hostiles and mines. the mines are empty and the hostiles cannot be attacked. now if there is an armada there you can call it, lose directives but cannot join it.
Yeah. The veil reliability issues are a massive bummer, on top of a mountain of other basic gameplay and QoL issues in the game.
True to all that, but smoothing a new players experiance can go along way to keeping new people coming to the game, THe whole point of this account was because i was hearing that the mid ops are actually fun. I am actually enjoying it, but blocking me getting pike cause i have friends seems silly lol
you can leave before you sleep, form a one man alliance, donate to it and rejoin tomorrow. I'd wait until after tournaments finish an do it tomorrow
i knew touching grass was a bad idea. i know i could do that, BUT i should not have to do that. Will porbably
Giving spend sigma AT tasks to G5 is crazy, worse than ever
it's an alliance wide pool
You can doooo it!
Yeahbut the scale down the and give different ones to lower levels. like i will see get 2star parts on my baby account but that will become get borg sphere parts on my G7
yes. they have been doing that for some things like the material ones scale also.
Maybe scopley ought to figure out how to PROPERLY code stuff the first time instead of making players fight constantly with scopely not doing anything right.... its so lovely getting screwed on alliance tournament tasks and being told it will take up to 3 days to get even a response over the task not being completed inspite of spending EXTRA CREDITS to complete a task!!!!
I hate it. Why is it suddenly in this order
probably asked AI to sort it
Look at the organization of Items and RSS. Like a blind deaf mute made it and just dumped everything into one folder. There is no organization.
Now imagine the code...
Dudes, we must collect money and pay for them AI coding subscriptions. They desperately need it. A lot more than selling up packs!
Why don't we have a proper issue tracker to follow up on the bugs and problems we constantly report? We AND your team need that <@&509690795536941056>
Do you honestly think they want people to know how many problems are reported and not fixed? Who would have time to read that long a list?
its the same situation on every server right now
I'm only being offered rare Reliant parts in the event store, but my Reliant has only needed epic for a while
They could change it to regular rss for players below G6 if they wanted. I just went 71 and all of my 10K acquire material tasks are for G7 mats now instead of G6
and they are far more expensive to do
our AC is dead most of the time - no one even cares anymore, everyone hates to play this game
does the omega ability added to ships in outposts supposed to fail or is it just another glitch/bug , that it does not work when ships die and do not get ressurrection
Adding choice rewards was one of the best decisions made by scopley in a long time. Repealing them was one of the worst. I don't get scopley's logic for taking them away. You guys added in a great feature that helped player retention mainly for the f2p players and $20 - $100 a month players. Taking them away caused a lot of those same players to finally leave the game. The message from scopley is basically "we don't care about the f2p or small spenders (which there a lot of). We only cater to the whales". This was a very bad business decision and hopefully the revenue numbers will prove that. Once the small fry leave, so will the whales.
I'm on a wired connection, so this means your servers are connected via WiFi ?
i think u need t15 to see it in the store. its weird dont ask me why š , esp when u need epic from t13 or t12 onwards
no epic reliant parts not in it's store must be a glitch, they're supposed to show once your ship tiered up enough to actuslly need them, so contact scopely
I think it's very telling how quiet all the chats have been this week. (The ones that work, that is.)
You do understand that is just an image right ?
Yeah, but it would explain the performance problems we see in the game
That's definetely not how it works mate š That image never changed since the game was introduced and reflects your internet connection status and not the media you use for it.
Could someone find out the percentage of op69 players are completing Vger Orion task on Wed and Sunday. Itās not something I can do even with mantis buff.
š¤ have an event to bring old members back. Then push the ones getting the old players back off the game š¤£
I had a high success rate with the special away team assignment until recently. Now every one fails. Is that because I went up from ops 58 to 59, or has it been nerfed as well?
Improved game experience and rebalancing
I didn't go up ops and my percentages have lowered, was at 100% and now 95-98% with the same officers. Funny part is I've done research to improve their stats but somehow got lower.
The 69s are the worst. Got better when I moved to 70.
My percentages were always fairly low, but I was still successful with most missions. Iāve tried 8 in a row and every one failed. Iām not sure their proper name, khan away mission or something? Itās a pain as it was useful as a way to get more faction credits.
they already had those events running: "re-inivite your friend" and "Arc 90"
are you suggesting a rerun of those...? š¤
Yeah. That āspecialā event lost many more previously active higher G players than brought back the old ones.
"special operations" event š¤
Can we please get the new currency added to the display so we can see how much we have of each alliance currency.
the ironically hilarious thing is brokely pretending that alliance tournaments is the only reason for the huge backlash and not just the final straw.
Guys know what would be fun? Not knowing which currency is used for what because they're almost indistinguishable from each other and also having absolutely no indication as to how much of each currency you have
They dont care about the whales either. Whales were buying those battlepasses too. The new elite Battlepasses have less rewards.
ScoPay changed the rerolls for everyone. The exchange to convert our old currency to the new ones was outrageously expensive.
<@&509690795536941056> While we are discussing the new currency we can't see, it's worth mentioning all the others too. There are many things that we can buy in the Faction Store with no idea how much currency we have. For example, Epic Ex-Borg credits. It should be pretty simple to fix this.
Why as a g5 player am I getting g3 vaults?
So basically, if you dont pay, you get worthless things?
Is it not just any in-game purchase? And it changes on the next run.
no, must be a rod
<@&509690795536941056> this is why players quit... Like I'm about to. I put in a ticket yesterday for an issue. Got to a point in the process where it asked if it wanted it to put me in contact with staff. It gave me a ticket number. This was the reply I got.
That happens to me every time now
Holy lag
will raise
Why are items in the tournament store graying out after being available to be bought?
did your alliance get demoted? If the item required master league and you just dropped out it would no longer be available.
Also today I took 1st place in A.T. it showed 1st place would be rewarded 5k+ of reg. Credits, I got 4k+. And was supposed to get 11k+ of the new credits, but I can't see how much I actually got, so I don't know if I was shorted on those too. But I can see available items for the new a.t. credits.
It's interesting that you started the last arc saying how events were going to focus on alliances working together, then you did everything you could to make our oldest and best members throw in the towel.
I have never seen this much anger, frustration and now apathy regarding the game. Admirals from other alliances reach out to ask if it's as bad with my group as theirs. This is Grade A "Fire Someone" levels of bad.
So, what has happened to the special away team assignment that has now failed 8 times in a row but used to failed once in every eight or so?
No we stayed in the top group
<@&509690795536941056> Is the UI ever gonna get fixed ? The issue with it showing whichever currency it's in the mood for has been there since the very first day of AT and has never got any attention.
This is typically the kind of lack of attention to detail that makes us think you don't care about testing stuff before releasing it ...
Edit: Also, sliders to buy more than one of each item per click ...
The game has become unplayable. EVERY single action is subject to lag. Wave defences lose targets, when you can actually target. Ship repairs are now a click wait, wait, wait... go affair. Ship repairs!! Ship selection is a click and hope affair, where without keyboard access you're in for a 30 second wait to select a ship. I haven't even attempted playing on my mobile for months!
PVP for a territory fight? Bwaa haa haaa!!! I recall battles with ship limits - 300 in a system at a time actually still working!
Nowadays you can't even get a ship repaired in time to get back to a battle, should there ever be one.
This needs to be fixed. Lag has been on the agenda for years and what is being done about it? Fuggall! More complexity. More paths. More Refineries!!! More more more calculations and hence exponential increases in lag. Honestly. It's not rocket science. Simplify! FFS!
Hmm...I wonder how much of the new currency I have. If only there was space to display such...oh wait.
<@&509690795536941056>
Why isnt the Legendary currency displayed along side the standard currency?
They can't even get the regular currency to display. Literally impossible.
If you're looking at Support not contacting people, can I add to the pile? I still haven't heard anything.
could we get a confirm button on alliance tournaments store . so when it lags you dont buy stuff you dont want. wasted 1100 so far š
No, this is my third account. But it is my first time getting a message like that. Usually I get a response, or whatever issue I had got resolved
we actually had a territory fight today, it was horrible. lag so bad, ships were destroyed before we finally could see into it, ghost ships everywhere, visible ācloakedā ships, battle starts that too up to ten seconds on average, ⦠it was almost unplayable. to say it was aggregating would be an understatement.
this is why we donāt spend.
this is why we donāt think this gam will last long
fix the game
interface is terrible. alliance tournament rewards take forever to collect. click wait, wait wait scroll down find it again, click wait . just add a slider
mines are disappearing in deep space and not returning game is lagging and a struggle to log in any chance you can fix please
Scopley you consistently disappoint
Is Scopely really this incompetent or are they just trying to thin out the server populations so they can twilight the game?
I feel for you as i've had these exact same issues and will add not being able to get back into the system unless I reset the complete game. If you need to do this more then twice you have lost your terrority no matter how big you are. I hope they finally get this fixed.
The only words i could write here about this game and Scopely are all forbidden...
this is the only thing that makes sense at this point. either that, or they need to fire whoever is interpreting the analytic data. āX amount of people signed on today so they must love usā š¤¦āāļø
So you can't promote her until ops 61? Everyone ops 1-60 has yet another reason to feel excluded, like Scopely only cares about the highest-level biggest spending whales. But even the whales are jumping ship, and you're going to need new ones. Treat the rest of your player base like they matter. Your next generation of whales is still below ops 61 and you need them to feel like STFC is worth the money.
āāAlso, nobody likes new currencies.
by the time your alliance hits Emerald Chain 38 to even get shards for her, you are probably g6 anyway. it also says Rank 1 max, so maybe you stop getting shards after unlocking her till EC 43 lol.
To my understanding, everyone in the same alliance is at the same Emerald Chain level, regardless of their ops level.
yes. but her bridge abilities are basically good t1 if you wanna use her for that and the below deck isnt relevant till g6/g7 anyway.
Her stats alone are useful at any level, especially low ops.
I'm ops 65, by no means a whale, and I agree with you 100%.
i d say worry about ranking her up when and if you ever unlock her anyway. not to mention get the appropriate EC ranks to tier her up. thats months and years of time.
I got the same message and after 3 days they sent message saying I got my rewards which I didn't then sent a 2nd message with same time stamp saying we haven't heard back from you so well close the case, great customer support NTT!!!!!!!
Just look at the scopely surveys, they ask questions about what you liked about an arc, give you 12 choices, except the one that everyone wants "none of the above", this way they can say the game is in good state
well what you expect scopley doesn't want honest feedback unless it's in here that was they can control how it's said and presented. If they allowed what we wanted to say in those surveys they'd stop sending them out as they wouldn't like the responses rofl. That's also why so many people get muted or messages banned/deleted on here because unfortunately saying what you mean doesn't always mean polite words are used
Thatās been absurd. They have been hiding AT store currency from the first time AT came out. Intentional or incompetent, either answer is bad.
Or this oneā¦..
that smells like AI bot
Scopely leaves some room for honest feedback in the surveys.
I like that last one about a dream to bad it's more like a nightmare that never ends roflmao
So the duel waves, how do you acquire more directives to do more waves ? Is there a free pull? I did see in the refinery it cost 120 per 100 directives.. I need 1400 to do a wave. I get 700 currency completing a wave to pull directives⦠I would need to do 3 duel waves to get enough currency to pull more wave directives and Iām using the currency to get building parts to upgrade the section 31 building. So I donāt have enough directives get enough points. Please advise
no free pull
𤣠Didnt respond within 1 second. scopley waited a long time
<@&509690795536941056> Most of the support tickets receive that exact response. Might be worth raising it to whoever at scopes cares if STFC has any players.
This would explain the huge amounts of LAG
Please turn down the awful on these v'ger orions they feel like a bi-weekly punishment
leslie was what made them tolerable, and you killed him
Lol. AT store does that thing where it glitches back to the top. Just bought mada directives for a crap ton currency
Isnāt even the first time smh
i dunno if you all are skiping on server sizes or what, but EVERYTHING and i mean EVERYTHING lags now, used to be once in a blue moon i would have to goto galaxy and locate back on a miner to get node to refresh, now it is EVERY TIME..... this makes the game almost unplayable and extrememly frustating to use
Why are the G6 epic ships so lame? G3-G5 epics all great with one of them from each G being truly epic.
LAG s33
Everything in store is literally not working click on your amarda store and get nothing same with everything else even dailies at first I thought just lag Iāll restart the game but no itās like I havenāt done anything and have to redo it all and still nothing server 125
<@&509690795536941056> lag is massive on s33, chat lagging, all the store are lagging. Having. Restart the game over and over.
Serriously scipely!? Can we not go just 1, one, ONE day without you breaking something that has worked for years until update 90!?!m
<@&509690795536941056> daily goals not registering
118 same problems nothing works
The lag has lag right now. Shield up boys with Scopley on the job itās only going to get worse. An since no one seems to work on the weekends š¤£.
<@&509690795536941056> i have claimed my daily tasks TWICE now and still not registering for the daily task milestones
It would appear there is more chance of the Strait of Hormuz opening than Scopely getting it right
Same issue, no daily event scores after completion. I know this is listed under known issues, but do we have any guidance on what we should do? Do dailies as usual and expect it will update eventually? Wait until tomorrow to do dailies? Any idea?
Everyday random rng pull of what gives me this screen forever
Aah Xypher, that is known as Scopely's spinning wheel of death
I've only spent 50k USD do I need to spend more to hire a coder than understands ?
Dailies are dead , omg š±
Love my turn is show as claimed but I can see I didnāt get the reward, thanks for nothing Scopley!
Getting lag on collecting things, whether event points and rewards, gift chests, or whatever.
They all come in but after 5 to 10 minutes
Seems to be clearing up now. Weird.
Like how does anyone raid with constant yellow lag symbol and disconnects ?
The lag is "heroic" š
Wasn't even a symbol, because the only lag was on rewards.
guaranteed the code for rewards is running on a separate server. That why when it lags a) it lags for all servers and b) it's not connected to server specific lag (no yellow lag symbol)
This is why people leave and then scopely have to do an event to try and convince us to con them into coming back
they have the revenue to run ads on youtube but not to hire playtesters.
yes and most frustrating thing for me is to watch stfc logo screen on every claim or when open anything, my eyes gets traumatized everytime when i see big black colour in middle of nothing š
"Good night" is what I said in AC before closing this smoldering piece of garbage. Maybe they'll see it finally appear in chat tomorrow
Woa my comments were deleted, too much truths just for asking questions... Sorry overlords
Can I get an invite to the super whale chat yet
<@&509690795536941056> Thx for pushing through the comp battlepass š„°
It is quite a good concept, cause it will keep players busy and a bit quieter for the duration or the pass. On top of that your support can reference every problem to "Oh well, you gob the comp battlepass for that".
But please keep in mind, if your dev team does not fix the issues in the next couple days - once the pass/comp runs out - you will be back to square one!
This is annoying, but typical Scopely - in the DTI faction, some officers have sliders to get more shards, and some don't, like the 2 at the bottom. This is just more frustrating nonsense. Every officer should have sliders to get the max amount of shards.
<@&509690795536941056> once again I ask for your support...with those mythical merges...
<@&509690795536941056> or <@&509691205798592532> can you make a list with all the issues from the game, you are investigating ???? Oh wait. better make a list, what is working fine, that would be faster and shorter š š
Points to #š -known-issues
𤣠so you are investigating the whole game, except the Scopely webshop
It won't keep me quiet at all, this "game" is a money sucking greedy bile.
No materials in monday supply depot?
So... Choice tokens. These were a POSITIVE mechanic introduced by Scopely to make the Battlepass fairer to all players so they could pull the materials they NEEDED, and it was welcomed.
NOW REVERTED.
Officer Depot Tokens. Again, a useful mechanic so players could pull shards of the Officers they NEED. Also welcomed.
ALSO NOW REVERTED.
I'm sure I can go back and find the specific release notes or announcement that mentioned why they were introduced, if anyone really wants to argue the toss (hint: you don't.)
The question then becomes - <@&509690795536941056> <@&509691205798592532> WHY are Scopely taking away features that were introduced as QUALITY OF LIFE IMPROVEMENTS???
its not only the choice that was removed but it feels like there overall is even less mats/ress in general in there
that is correct if you spend all choice tokens in crystals you would get more sigma trit for example than current passes have sigma trit being the one big bottleneck i have lol
<@&509691205798592532> <@&509690795536941056> can you stop all Events for Duo Wave and the new NPCs, please. These Events are Pay2Play Events. No one who doesnāt spend hundreds of ā¬/$ can participate
Youāve summarized nicely the effects of the updates in patch 90. Thank you. Just add #monetization and your summary is perfect.
Continuum refinery sucks hard . 2 chest pretty much 0 rewards
And you've at least gotren the battlepass, I still don't have it š¤£
5 days waiting for support to continue with my ticket, whats going on.?
working as intended
They probably have all quit after having to deal with the most recent š© storms
possibly, though has now been delt with.
When you are out of outpost, aggro, trans, continuum, mirror, gorn, xindi, new augment, new borg, silent and perpetually out of Terran loot. Really makes you wonder why the heck we need to do all this stuff anyway after 40 minutes of daily āchestā claims, daily faction claims and daily refineries. We are all a victims to the slicing and dicing of the game for short term sales of new loops, ships, primes, paywalls etc etc. kind of unfortunate.
Ok, so last night it was gifts, awards, and faction store purchases that lagged. This morning daily tasks won't load title and description. Stop adding useless crap and making changes that make the game less fun and start fixing everything.
.0.00
Battle pass isnāt good enough a comp we demand choice tokens back
am i the only one that finds the "monday supply chest" or what its called today extremely bad ? last weeks it was a parsteel+ore pack ... today i got 150k officer exp / 375 ultra recruit tokens / 200 premium recruit tokens
Choice tokens old AT make content for all ops levels not just g5 and up get rid of mythic battlepass and just make it the old tier
And we want old incursion back this pve incursion is lame and everyone hates it
g o c mats seem to be getting harder and harder to get of the numbers we need esp rare, epic. choice tokens was nice, the mats were decent in number. Bonus for those that used them in AT. Made one feel good about something in the game. The mats in the event store are overpriced. in fact most of the event store is out to lunch in work/reward ratio. i usually go for ship parts, and even those u have to be chosey to feel u got something of value.
This is some BS
you got to pay more $$$ to get more

STFC
Complete all weekly events for a low low payment of just £1000 per week
Est-ce que la mise à jour de demain va atténuer, voire faire disparaître les bugs ? Ou est-ce une nouvelle suite de bugs, comme vous en avez l'habitude ?
https://tenor.com/view/batman-lolwut-noodleood-ktswx-gif-25043581
holy lag batman! S33
give us back our Officer Depot and Choice Tokens and decent Alliance Tournaments ! ! !
life improvements, please ! ! !
no respect for the players = no spendings anymore
It's time for you to add the factions to the archive. Like, you've pumped your reputation to the maximum, and now it's in the archive. You're only collecting the loot that you've purchased there. At least for two factions, it's definitely possible. For the Outcasts and Badjora.š
I wish some of these researches would just automatically max out if the officer is maxed. Yes I know about the transporter patterns, but its simply not worth the effort to research these things.
Yes, that's the case, getting G6 rares maybe once per week
still no word from management et all on the terrible state of the game right now? or do they think the BP was enough and they can keep taking away value?
The name should be changed to āStar Trek : Scheduled Maintenanceā
Scheduled New bugs introduction xd
@raw fiber do they have another mid month maintenance/patch planned already for after this next planned maintenance? Or are we going to have to wait for all the complaints and issues to be raised first
Are all the officers maxed in them? Or just one?
I was mostly talking about the recruit researches. But yes for those recruit researches that are visible, I have all thsoe officers maxed (O'Brien, Sisko, etc). The only recruit research that I don't already have maxed is Chakotay.
After every maintenance
Hate we have to do this with trellium D too.
that's scopley after every content release and maintenance
G6 is hard enough as it is, taking away our choice of mats has made it harder, if I want to spend all of it on crystal I should. Not hope a few measly ones come along 4-7 days along in the pass. Yes we have noticed the amounts are far less. It's disgraceful.
$copely - "Here are your crumbs, peasants, so no more complaints from you. The game is just fine."
Exactly. I thought I would get to ops 69 before the end of this, but now I won't because of no longer having choice rewards and getting the drips of what I need.
Took me longer than it should of to get my Velox at 66 because I couldn't upgrade my shipyard. It was ridiculous
For real. As others have suggested, I would be fine with them taking the month off to spend that whole time actually giving the bugs we complain about every day and every month that never get fixed. And, actually throwing in qol improvements as promised would go a long way too.
Same for 68. I'm 2 upgrades away from 69, but it all needs rare stuff, mostly crystal. It's crazy too how you think you're close to an ops, then out of the blue, nope, to get to 68 of a building, you have to randomly upgrade some other buildings, and oh, look, another building to upgrade this other one.
I log in and try to play for a bit, even just targetting hostiles is hard work and I sit here and think to myself, this game is just rubbish now, then I log off š
Yeah it's always an obstacle course to get to the building you need to upgrade. Let's do those oh so important generators that haven't been relevant since 2* first eh? š
Ha, totally. It's so annoying. Instead of seeking to make the game fun, they purposely set out to see how annoying they can be. That definitely doesn't encourage spending. It encourages archiving and deleting the game.
Oh wow a pass that showed up with out issue... Still waiting on my compensation one to show.
Yep, when there's this horrible lag that spins your targets or keeps you fighting for 40 seconds while your shield disappears in a hazard system.
ā¤ļøāš„š¹
I was gonna push from 62 to 66 then they took choice tokens and was like nope I don't have enough materials and not gonna start and meet a wall with no good ship to do newer hostiles and event requirements. I'm fine hanging down at 62 its easier anyways for events. Guess I'll just keep spending all these credits from doing dailies while I wait for the wonder rng from refinery to give me the mats I need in 20yrs from now
saw this and had to laugh, this is like every maintenance and patch and update
lol we have a pothole in town right before you turn into a McDonald's it has been "repaired" ever 4 months like clockwork because the city keeps using the cheap materials rather then the expensive one's. They spent more than it would have cost to fix it the right way over past 20 years but what do I know I'm just the guy that has to watch my city wasting money.
I'd love to think they can make up for what has been done recently (past 6 months especially the past month). The think is it will be an uphill climb with broken glass for quite some time. The trust of the community has been whittled away to nothing. Can they come back yes absolutely the question will be will they choose to put the effort in we shall see next time they push out content.
Merge 76 and 710 already. Everyone I have talked to has been ready and waiting for it to happen since it was first announced
they'll prolly do it once people stop asking for it after all they don't ever really do what we ask right.
So true
<@&509690795536941056> do we have a state of the game planned to come out soon? Updated roadmap or dev lists? any planned communications?
<@&509690795536941056> as the end of arc stores have been discontinued, can you help identify another way to fully obtain enough BP shards for a 2nd amalgam? Currently I have 1 unlocked but 45 shards away from a second one. Can you help identify and add permanent sourcing for the last 50 shards? Perhaps just allowing 100 shards to be pulled from incursions store?
iām still waiting for them to acknowledge they have a problem beyond āa frustrating arcā š¤¦āāļø We are going to be waiting until the river sticks freezes over and the dead are released from grethor.
let me guess, the truck is named āstfcā and managed by scopely. fits the state of the game perfectly.
Just a reminder, because I want it to be clear <@&509690795536941056> We all still expect an apology, a full explanation as to why Scopely has ignored player feedback, an immediate reversal of aggressive monetization tactics, and immediate and consistent actionable correction of the problems presented. We DO NOT want more new, broken content, until you acknowledge, correct, and improve old content. Everything thats happened in the past 6 months (and arguably several years) has been unacceptable. If you want players to continue playing, and contributing to your game, you need to make sweeping changes initiated and vetted by actual players. You've already lost a TON of players, and the longer you wait to respond the more players you'll lose. These players aren't coming back. Especially after you tried to get players back only to immediately turn around and burn that bridge for the umpteenth time.
@everyone
Commanders,
Please note that scheduled introduction of new bugs and crashes along with broken content and š© nobody wants will occur on <t:1778576401:F>
Downtime duration: approx. 2 hours
Golden Shield: 8 hours, automatically applied following the estimated maintenance window.
@finite mural Heya, you said those paragon recruit token will be back this week but i still can only see cadre. Will they really return?
(I'm meaning the exchange, of course)
You have to be a vip member to ask that kind of questions. š
Another Tuesday night, another interruption to APAC prime time play, with no improvement to show for it
I was just wondering when the rest of the tranquility BPs were coming out. The initial message said friday and then monday at the latest. Log in and it is still missing
hey i heard world peace will happen before we get an honest answer from scopley
Before when I did these, with the officers have, I would be at 100%+ and be getting extra Pioneer, did this get changed in some sneaky update to make harder to get more?
Not trying to be sarcastic but you answered your own question. If you've had it at 100% before with same officers and ya dont now.... something doesn't smell right and no thats not the homeless person outside your favorite coffee shop
Just seeing if anyone else is noticing that. There are several ATs so hard to really know 100% sure
P1ATs have always been impossible for me, right from the start. If you're not getting 100% anymore, there's probably a nerf somewhere
Yeah I noticed they decreasing rewards in everything they should be doing the opposite, don't know what got to them.
The difficulty is in part based on your ops level. I know it changes going from 60 to 61. But itās possible it changes at other ops levels as well.
Did you ops up recently?
I'm been waiting almost two years for Scopely to offer a couple of Thothian Mines so I can finish this Chaos Tech.
Having 4x sets of 100 Seal of Kotal available in the AT store when Tactical Warmonger only needs 300 to max indicates (like many other things) that you don't understand, even basic, math.
And how long are we waiting for new Q hostile lvl to finally reach those forbidden tech bonuses which they advertised for us?
Please add a dedicated signa trit mining system to the margins. It is annoying that the ones that flip are 95% dil/par
I am ready to receive more comp chests š¤
REALLY disapointed the wave defense solo pass claim disappeared after buying the bp as it required, what the sweet hell kinda garbage is this gimme my solo passes we had a social contract here
@finite mural I submitted a ticket yesterday no response is it just gone did I get Scopleyed?
when all of us win the lotto and give scopley a cool 5mil each thats when.
Why is Squall so slow at mining Transogen?
its great at all types though for all but epic you need to hit the research. also the higher you can mine the faster it mines! my maxed squall mines epic at 41m ph
Maverick tasks reset two hours early. Again. Is it really that hard for your programmers to time it correctly?
Itās intentional. Because scopes wanted players to miss the later milestone rewards. 3rd week in a row.
That 5 mil is going toward my beach house, not scopely š
If we all of us here win lotto we can buy the company itself. š¤
The game freezes for a few seconds every time you click on a button. These seconds add up to minutes. These minutes add up to frustration. This frustration adds up to the hundreds of thousands of complaints about lag. Can't you program the game so that you can consecutively click on multiple buttons while the app does its thing in the background?
can my daily login claim please not be so late at night? should be first time you log in in any rolling 24 hours period
Improved game experience and rebalancing š¤£
<@&509690795536941056> i opened a ticket yesterday due to missing BP points, can you help fixing it?
I don't think a team of incompetent people will manage to fix anything at all. The more people try to help solve the problems, the worse it gets.
maybe its ai coding )
They fixed GS-31 and Outpost crews - it took a while, but credit where credit is due - those have been high ticket fixes
I've noticed the same, in my case it's the attack stat that seems somehow nerfed. Also, my officers are much higher than yours, joachim and borg are maxed and have power in the millions, still i'm not reaching 100% as you, so there's definitly some rebalancing factor there
Except there's no collision detection 9n GS-31 beams. Two people can activate it at the same time and the RNG can select a ship to be the target of both, but only one player scores the hit
Sooo, instead of fixing the maths for Academy... It's a Prime you have to buy to help fix the maths for Academy.
You clowns are an absolute joke.
<@&509690795536941056> how about some QOL changes instead of only prime additions in a mid month!?
Seriously. This timeline.
- Ship a convergence of bad stuff as monthly patch including officer nerfs, a ton of pay2play features and a āwell, we said we would bring g5 scrapping-smug-grin-useless-featureā
- Get the pitchfork and torches angry mob
- Acknowledge āYeah, things are bad bad, people are angryā
- Ship 3 Primes and a pay-only officer buff as mid-month patch
Sorry, but thatās beyond hopeless <@&509690795536941056>
So they still wont aknowledge the impossibility of the academy arc for the f2p/bp only ppl š
So is the chat and lag finally going to be fixed or our feedback ignored as usual and more new crap to jam it up even more just happening
Or doing anything to fix this game, I guess they don't care that 20% of players quit since last year and I'm sure thousands more are on their way out as we speak. After all the cat said the players are expendable
Maintenance isn't maintaining anything just adding more primes,no bug fixes or attempts.
Basically anything to improve gameplay for most and not only the top whales would be acceptable
Well the whales aren't spending anymore unless you only care about Haywire who seems to be slowing down as well maybe he'll quit soon
LOL careful they will block your post if mention anything about not spending. Scopely cash grab would feel threatened
No fixes to the multitude of game bugs????
That wouldn't surprise me in the slightest, it's like the only feedback they listen to is "let me buy more packs" when no one is truly saying that
Basically nothing is possible ingame due to lag.. Raiding takes 5-10 secs for each hit cuz of attack buttom lag, hitting players same, setting a ship on a node same, and going through dailies is same with game more or less completely freezes up after doing maby 15-20% of daily claims requiring a restart.. Basically unplayable just cuz they want to push more and more content into the game!!
<@&509690795536941056> get the message relayed somewhere that this is completely NOT ok!!
Claiming rewards affected due to lag to, is that bad if try and claim before reset you miss your rewards cause of lag
Well <@&509690795536941056> #ā-official-announcements message those patch notes are simply disgusting, you can shove those primes were we all think they should go.
Takes a 2 hour maintenance to put in 3 primes that no one asked for š¤£
There's an Ops73 whale on our server who said this about archiving their account and the reasons for it:
āNot playing much longer. Even for not bothering, the last 2 arcs are just unacceptable. And this one is the worst in 2 or 3 years imo.
You basically need to pay for every freaking clickā¦thatās how it feels. Just pay2playā¦. Thereās no strategy.
Guess next month new ship, building, Ft/ct and what have youā¦killing the choice token was the nail on the coffinā.
If the red alert siren isn't sounding loudly over at Scopely HQ, I doubt anything will change. It's like a gambling addict doubling down putting all their money on black when the roulette wheel keeps stopping on the red. The whales are beginning to see through it all and that my friends means trouble for Scopely in keeping STFC on life support.
Sooooo what to do while the game is in maintenance mode? Well check out all the content of those nifty content creators ofc! š
I could live with a f2p easy sourcing day 1 for them at least
<@&509690795536941056> <@&509691205798592532> instead of fixing this garbage arc you implement additional pay content. Congrats⦠you learn nothing!
Ooh, so instead of only 5 doo-dads per hostile I can get 12! And it only costs me 100 USD! So incredibly generous of you Scopely! /sarcasm š¤®
There was a time when I was ok with giving you some of my money, despite how little we'd actually get for it, but that time has definitely passed. My finances will be much happier with this new state of being.
I expected more from the latest maintenance. Once again, they missed the chance to improve the game. As if there weren't already enough unresolved bugs. Instead, there was just one minor adjustment and more content for the shop. At the very least, Scopely has reinforced my resolve to continue spending no money on this game.
Call it what it is, a cash grabbing update. No sign of any maintenance once again.
Yeah I heard that Rev guy made a great video the other day, I wonder if he knows anything about the player count
#ā-official-announcements message
So no bugs fixed.
Apparently scopely stipped with that. Possibly due to lack of any competence
I bet they have a challenge that the one who creates the most issues is getting a payraise
Can't even remember when the last patch that didn't cause this game to become less playable and more laughable was...but hey, let's shove some more useless primes into this broken bug-infested pay2play "mobile game," right?
Great another patch for new stuff - maybe fix some of the old bugs first š¤¦āāļø
Playersā very consistent feedback about this and the last arc: too biased towards p2p.
$copelyās (typcial) reply: we donāt give a š© and add 3 new primes for p2pās. NO QoL improvements, NO bugs fixed, not a single major issue addressed.
Next 7d shield added and hibernating š¤¬
The way the academy loop is designed means upper G6 (68+) are unable to engage due to the amount of hostile loot increasing based on a players ops level.
As you need this loot to upgrade the building (via engineering credits), it means anyone in upper g6 is unable to progress their building.
Fix: Scale the amount of hostile loot required to buy engineering credits based on the academy building level, not ops level.
Let them just scrap this loop. Since itās worthless to scrap our G5 ships, maybe they can at least scrap the Academy š
Waves are unplayable due to lag and Kirshara bugs and constant queue confusion, but yeah, let's make an arc that is based entirely on a new wave mechanic that's entirely designed to confuse and irritate the player base, that'll make everyone want to buy useless primes for a useless arc!
The middle update has changed my life; I can finally use the toilet properly again, my apartment looks much better, and believe it or not, my hair is growing where it all fell out before. It's a miracle, thank you Scopley!
STFC: SCRAP THIS FAILING CONTENT!!

12 reboots in less than 8 min, new record⦠i didnāt count the clear cache reboot
So?! #ā-official-announcements message No bugs fixed just added cash grab? I think you should check your priorities if you wanne keep selling such primes š
every computer I have always works better after a reboot....how does scopely's work worse?
you must be new to the game huh?
How exactly is this "maintenance"? As far as I can see it's an improvement to a new RNG/pay officer and a couple of very mediocre primes. As engagement with new arc is appalling, primes and officers really aren't going to fix that.
Nothing that requires paying will fix this arc as we're not buying it anymore. Except for the top whales so they just keep shoveling out content to feed them and rake in the cash. Nothing to do with game design anymore
<@&509690795536941056> can you please address why this mid month "maintenance" patch did not address any of the countless issues or issue any fixes and instead just pumped out more pay to play mechanics?
<@&509690795536941056> can we put the "postponed merges" in #š -known-issues ? That way, your IT department can add it in their list of things to doš
Daily claims are very lagged
how can dopely put in an update and make a mess everytime when is it enough incompatence to deal with
STFC: SCOPELY TERMINATED FIXING CODE
lag on S12, every refinery pull takes a minute or more.
Lag is freaking unbearable right now.
Itās insane youāre stripping all value from the game and then demanding payment for a broken game.
LOL, you think it's just your server?? It's every server..
I don't want them to assume mine is ok and only the others a impacted. LOL
Why fix anything!! The game is dead but weāre still clinging on. Scamley care nothing about its customers playing a dead feature
They already scrapped the show, might as well scrap the loop š¤£
with how many people I'd have to fire the company isn't worth $1.25
Dear Scopley, can I interest you in the concept of root cause analysis? Then, if you fix the root cause, you shouldn't keep getting the same issues day after day...
You have to wait, I am trying to get them to understand Change Management and IT General Controls. We don't want to confuse them with too many new business concepts from the last century.
well, they didnt in past 8 years why would the do now
Remember the good old WoW days ? Patch day, no play ?
World of Tanks updates in the back ground without any need to take the servers off line. Only when the moved to World of Tanks 2.0 did they go offline for a hour. Everyone's accounts transferred fine and the game was back up in no time.
So we didn't even get our usual visual glitch fix just primes added in a maintenance I'd ask for my money back but y'all haven't earned my money in over 4years. I have to give your credit though scopley and please listen well with what I'm about to say. You are destroying your playerbase, game, and company better than the entire ftp community that you let play your whole game catalog could ever do. You care about money which is the correct thing to do in business. The problem is you have blinders on to everything else that helps you make money unless it's add prime, or ship, or new hostile grind to game means make š°. Player retention is at an all time low. Player satisfaction (Including whales) is even lower than the retention. You think the 12k new players you added last year has brought more money than you lost with the 30k that left even with scopley math it didn't. You're bleeding your own company dry and yet you continue down the same path. Have you ever heard the definition of insanity you should look into it i think you'd learn something that might help.
Primes might generate revenue. Glitch fixes donāt! - Scopleyās unspoken response.
Glitch fixes might have kept the big spenders that started leaving in year 3.
So what did they break this time? What hateful thing did they do on purpose to the player base?
they fixed the primes they forgot to add at the beginning of arc thats it hard to break something when they didn't try to fix anything
You now owe all players who are at the level required to unlock the Revenant 90k uncommon parts for you deleting the refinery... how the heck did you even manage to mess up on the "enhancment" that badly?
They normally break stuff when they add stuff! š¤£
for once they got it right too bad they've done that only once in the 15yrs they've been a company
The lag is being looked into. <- always the same old story
With as much lag repeatedly introduced, you should form a permanent task force to fix it.
Added Primes: ā ļø
Fixed officer stats when doing ATA: lolnope
btw wheres the bulk research that was promised us like last year š
What we need is bulk claims for all parts of the game and a big claim all button on top. Next on the list is the lag. Everything else can wait.
Imagine the lag if you could claim everything at once? You would hit that and 5 hours later the game would finally let you play
So your answer to the hideously poor drop rate of the Academy Drones is to introduce a prime to increase the loot dropped ? 𤣠How predictable, you can continue to stick this entire arc where the sun don't shine š
Never mind that you've gated them behind an unnecessary token eh, never mind that they are impossible to kill without a building above lvl 30 𤣠- just continue to further alienate your long suffering player base - absolutely shambolic šš¤£
Notice now clearly Scopley listened to what was important to the players:
-better g5 scrapping? - NOPE
-return of choice rewards? - NOPE
-return of former officer depot system? -NOPE
So glad to see that āplayers have been heard.ā
Clocks ticking with most players, Scopley.
Also, honestly how many times do we need to complain about lag. How many times do we need to see āitās being looked into.ā
Seriously. Fix it. If you canāt, find someone who can. If you still canāt - sell it.
Weāre tired of this crap.
If I would have made a list of the top 5 things Scope could do to kill the game in January they would have been:
- Eliminate Officer choice
- Ruin Alliance Tournaments
- Eliminate CoTA
- Remove cosmic choice
- Ruin G5 scrapping
Please Scope, point me in the direction of the one player who likes any of this. Iād like to chat with them
The lag is being looked into.
You keep saying that. Clearly looking into the lag isn't working. Perhaps you should try fixing it?

!!!!!!! spenders will spend !!!!!!!!! ... forcing players to spend will only create negative feedback
Some were a POSITIVE mechanic introduced by Scopely for all players so they could pull the f2p materials they NEEDED, and it was welcomed.
That's because the Devs and mods don't play the game it seems. The last one who took an interest was Bex and she's done the clever thing and done a runner. š
<@&509690795536941056>
Just some feedback on your current business model.
I'm in G6, but we, along with G7 players make a fraction of your playerbase, by restricting alot of new content to just higher ops, you're automatically cutting yourselves out of 80-90% of potential customers.
- Yes, G6/G7 needs new content to keep players busy, your whales ofc need feeding.
- However, consider making some cheaper affordable $10-20 packs for players, skins or emotes or other in game appearance changes.
e.g. you have a terrific art team, have them make base skins, or building skins to let people have 'themed' starbases - i'd imagine quite a few players would happily buy up a DS9 themed base and interior, or federation/klingon/romulan etc. Plenty of games like League / Roblox make a killing of much more affordable cosmetics - Also, consider whether restricting newer officers is really a good decision - again, letting lower ops buy these officers seems to make far more sense from a business perspective than restricting their purchase to such a small portion of your players.
They did sell it. They sold Scopely, as a whole, to Savvy Games Group. Saudi Arabia Owned Public Investment Fund, for 4.9bil in 2025.
and majority of time you can even see after you get thw new glasses but I guess scopley keeps getting the wrong prescription
Where is this paragon recruit token exchange, that you promised to be back @finite mural :)
Game performance is worse than ever! Please stop adding useless stuff and FIX THE GAME!
Oh yaaay - a round of additionally annoying all-new lag with this update!
And weāre apparently just gonna leave it and not address it, since significant, game debilitating lag has become a staple feature of this game the last few months šš¤¬
That means they are looking into mirrorsš š¤£
In 2023 but yes you're right. I think we're starting the feel the squeeze of that investment while they look for ROI
Saudis are looking for the reputation gain rather than ROI, but someone should tell them how much scopely messed that one up
āThe lag is being looked into.ā
Do you mean the normal everyday game-breaking lag? Or is this some new lag? Do you plan to ever fix it or simply look into it?
Something really needs to be done about all the dailies we collect for free. Anyone really over 60 that collects dailies. Many of them are useless. Needs to be an away to get rid of items we never need anymore. Same goes for what we get each month in currency that we can use or left with. This here would be a great quality of life for many players.
I trully admire how consistence $cops Devs are....
Launch day, they never fail on massive Lag....š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£
F2P and P2P exactly the same thing. Free 2 Purchase is the way forward for Scopely.
Can we please get this requirement changed m there is 0 need for this to be so high since the addition of the archives.
what does warp range have to do with the Archives though?
Please, asking don't know how many times, make Franklin and Franklin-A store relevant. Those resources they give don't have any meaning because you give tons in events, and we never need them. So these ships are pretty useless.
I don't care. That ship is useless now. Even for OPC hunting the Relativity is better
That's why they've been archived, they're old loops that aren't relevant anymoe
Of course it is, that's why it's been archived, it's old content, mostly useless if you're not a new player finishing old loops
yeah, but I am ops 35 and get to build a Franklin again for no any reason..
Which is my point. It's a useless ship so they should adjust the requirements of the related research so that its actually useful for those that don't have it archived yet.
I mean, you don't have to Franklins aren't for anything except swarms anyway
swarms which I can kill with any other ship. That's my point to rework the swarm store and purpose of Franklin. The content at lower ops is neglected, and that's where players come from
They're not going to though, ships get archived because the content is done. Not saying I don't agree with you, just trying to say it's not content that will ever get refreshed.
yes, but that's a mistake. If they want players to go higher ops then they must make sure the lower ops is attractive gameplay as well, otherwise those players will leave the game from there
I'm ops 65 and have been playing about a year and a half, and the Franklin was already dead content when I first started playing, I felt the exact same way. Again, I agree completely, but Scopely has terrible priorities when it comes to keeping this game fair for players who started at different times. At least it's much easier to progress quickly now, even if you do have to trudge through terrible old content to get to more current loops. But yeah, they should either remove old loops altogether or find ways to keep stuff relevant. Like why do I care about doing Stella stuff every week? That's G3 content and my Outlaw research has been completed since forever ago. The only reason to participate is to get officer badges. They could easily make G4, G5, and even G6 strength Exchange systems if they wanted us to stay engaging with that content every week, right?
^^was supposed to be a reply
so with all the problems in the game... your mid month patch just adds a bunch of primes isntead of fixing any of these massive gamebreaking problems? pure genius
Oh I'm quite confident that it'll likely add new gamebreaking problems, it always does
The fun is finding them š
<@&509690795536941056> If I was so consistently failing at my job that I couldn't even get a simple db entry right I'd be fired.
Don't worry, they find you!
It was the AI.
That's under the assumption there's someone else available to replace you though. Is numerous examples of people being incompetent staying in roles as there's simply no one else to replace them.
im pretty sure at scopely you fail up
Not calling CMS incompetent btw. Insane definitely putting yourselves in that position. š
What model are they using ? Claude Dumbus -6.2 ?
I hope Star Trek academy S2 gets cancelled⦠I mean the arc š lots of players left our server ⦠some big 70+ players , good job scopely ⦠skipp the arc and work on something good and fix some old bugs . I am sure the community doesnāt mind
so when you "hear our concerns" that translates to "lets make some more primes"
4-5 sec delay seems to be upgraded to 9-10 sec 
How many primes were added? I only see two new primes, one for mavericks and the other merits loop, was kinda hoping for extra scraping queue
Is maintenance still going? It's not loading.
Thx for patching the lag back
Same, game is unplayable ATM
Its over
I think they added 3. The extra scrapping queue will probably be next arc and also be 99.99
Shocking, a bug that benefits players is being fixed. How are all those other bugs that negatively impact players which "have been raised" coming along?
Did they messed around with g5 scraping rewards? I am seeing little low on sigma trit or was it always like that, to bad I can't check for g5 epics they made ops 70 requirement for those
Wow, loving the 20-30 second delay every time I press a button or change screens. Keep up the great work!
Wow the lag is amazing really enjoying it
The "Give the worst or wrong rewards 2.0"
Since Iām refusing to play all this new "wave" garbage out of protest, I can just turn this incompetent game off sooner⦠Thanks, Scop. 
lag is stupid again
once again, thank you for the lag @rigid vapor we really appreciate it ^^
They haven't fixed problems since the 2nd month this game was released. All they do since that time period was and is make content to sell since selling stuff makes more money than fixing stuff. If you've paid attention in any way they only "fix" anything when we find ways to do stuff without them making money off it. Then it gets fixed and not just fixed but anything to do with it gets nerfed so they can make their intended money. Just look at the last 6 months to a year content they've been doing to see 100% clarity on exactly what their focus is then you'll stop asking questions and start being like thw rest of us and criticize theirs actions.
Very tone deaf update. These pixels arenāt worth $100 with the state of the game. The fun factor is out because itās grind after grind while lagging and restarting constantly. Half the stuff barely works. Focus on fixing the damn game before trying to get more money out of it.
oh there's people that can replace them the company just doesn't want to pay them the money it takes to hire good help it's cheaper to hire the bad people and blame it on coding bugs than hire the people thst should be hired it's same way in every field of work if a company can get away with hiring substandard workers they do it and charge you for perfection when you getting that subpar work.
We can all feel itāthis game is finished. The entire community is in complete agreement on this. Anyone who still sinks money into it now shouldn't come crying later. š
Anyone stupid enough to still spend on this trash should be committed to an asylum!
Once again look at how quickly Scopley fixes the player friendly bugsā¦
So sick of Scopley choosing what they fix.
well to be fair if they dont fix simple things like that we'd never have any fixes not that its much of a fix to begin with or even needed to be fixed rofl
If they were to fix everything, they would even cut staff from the teams. š¤”
<@&509690795536941056> 2000 Academy drone kills for a single pull of the chest is off by an order of magnitude, at least. Please fix the loot drop rate or adjust the per chest cost!
That would benefit the playersā¦..no chance they are going to do that!
What lvl hostiles are you killing, 62's?
61s. 62s brings it down it down to 480 kills but I can only do 2 per hull at this point because I can't get the building up for the crit mit.
what ops are you & do you have a max relativity?
OPs 68, but my rel is only at tier 12. I've been using my cube so far.
This is what i've been using on my relativity to kill 62 interceptors (my building is lvl 9 rn). FT/CT = QSS / Chrono Deflector (maxed).
Your cube might struggle because they're interceptors, but I manage about 35 x 62's per run with just an NSEA buff (and get ~105 loot per kill) - interceptors don't deal iso dmg or have apex barrier which is why i've been shooting them & able to use more loot officers
At 67, this means i can farm my 6k per day and appreciate you guys 68-69 need 24k, but if it works, you could try with a max fort buff, because that should mean you can last significantly longer.
Thanks, I'll play around with that. Don't have QSS quite yet (42 to go).
I am not sure there's enough money available to tempt anyone in alternatively though. I bet there's some huge mess to process whatever happens. With no guarantee's.
Sadly still not unlocked tpring
Maybe try with another synergy officer, other ship buffs will also help with mitigation (cerritos/titan), but you'd have to test it to see how it works. NSEA buff is great because it gives an extra 50% of hull when maxed
<@&509690795536941056> any word from management on the state of the game? We're still waiting for word on:
- A concrete QoL burn-down list with dates.
- Restoration and protection of player value mechanics.
- Better separation between bug recovery and new paid offers.
- Clear evidence that community feedback is shaping design decisions before damage hits revenue.
The last one becomes more impossible by the day...
or have the Community Managers just given up on communication as well?
Just put the game in vacation mode , its way better
Regarding Alliance Tournaments,
Perhaps you should learn the lesson from "New Coke". IE. Don't overthink it.
You had an idea that your developers thought was "great" that was resoundingly HATED by your customer base.
Just reverse the changes back to the way things were before, that people liked.
Put the old re-roll system back in place with its original currency restored and means to acquire that re-roll currency back the way it was a month ago.
This compulsion to buy is the exact opposite of effective psychology... If Iām forced to do something, I wonāt do it... Back when upgrading was still voluntary, it was fine... Now, all you get is my middle finger.
Question in a form of feedback. As 71 player. How i am suppose to advance my starfleet academy? my building is lvl9 and cant get anymore tokens to upgrade do to impossilbe loop. I can barely kill lvl65 hostile with acceptable hull loss. But this means i would need to kill over 600+ hostiles to get one refine. How i can advance this building without spending my lifetime grinding drones?
game unplayable in the useless state, constant whirling circle when opening chests, events, resourses, which makes daily collections unplayable. useless and more useless than before. why bother wasting our time on this rubbish
What I particularly love this evening is the fact that chat is now utterly unusable, either so laggy itās impossible to communicate, or just freezes up and you feel like youāre typing into silence, until you restart and hey presto 30 mins of messages appear.
Now that we canāt complain to each other ingame on AC, Iāll just come here and point out every single thing thatās still broken, every day.
Thatās a win on successfully driving engagement, scopely š
Just do w1 of L70 duoWD, if you just take out the L61 Venari youāll pass the wave, and get enough creds for a few pulls of building mats.
Itās slow painful way to progress, but it worksā¦
The chunk of building mats coming up soon in the gifted battlepass will help a bit tooā¦
so player base say "scopely get your s. together" and scopely answers with a patch which still doenst fix the lag and realeas 3 100⬠prime????? classic scopely move
#š -known-issues message
Leave it alone
š¤š¤ why is it asking me to install at the end of the install asking for a friend, can't log in for almost 24 hours now on PC
it's the universe saying get out now you should listen to the universe.
People complaining that they cant get enough loot from these training hostiles to pull the ridiculously overpriced chests
So instead of reducing the requirement to open the chests you thought the solution was to again charge £99 for a prime to increase the loot?
You think were going to buy it?
Even with that prime giving 150% more merits that still will not give enough loot to open the chest daily
I second this
can you at least fix the ingame chat its unusable chat messages pop in different windows or not even get sended
why patch at all if you dont fix the main issue....terrible lag
the terrible lag is now a feature not an issue. After all if it doesn't get fixed after a month they don't bother anymore and well how long have we had lag issues rofl
Thanks for the news
they selling a prime to see that it's slated for next mid month maintenance (next week on tuesday)
Also, "fixing" that claim just makes this horrible loop even worse and literally 100% pay only....... which I guess is the intention
@tidal notch Guys, you really need to do something with the Academy loop. I can get 5 training merits per kill. To get a single pull I need 24k. THIS IS NOT OK!!! Can't start the loop as I can't get building up !!!
well at least I can now see what I'd have to look forward too if I was even gonna entertain that loop. Ty for that info just another reason why we shouldn't engage with new content when its d.o.a.
None of the clowns at Scopay HQ care dude, they just want you to buy the pack. Iāve added a glitch to my CC, so that whenever I even think of using it on this utter shambles of a game, it punches me in the nuts!
Not that I object to 5100 TPPs a week but what the heck is the story with the Beyond the Threat gift and why are we still getting it?
STFC is essentially an advanced, more complex, cookie crumbler. You start off small, knocking one crumb off at a time to earn a tool that lets you knock off 10 at a time. Use that until you have enough crumbs for a bigger tool that knocks off 100 at a time. That's the template for this game, and most FTP/PTW games on the net today.
What keeps people playing is holding out that next big advancement that lets you do more, faster, easier, so you can grind your way to one after that, and so on.
I'm ops lvl 43, and that's what keeps me playing. The implied promise that if I keep on grinding, I'll get to the next tier, a new set of grinds, and then the next and the next and the next.
And that's what makes the current state of the game so disruptive (and damaging to long term profits). On the one hand, my grind is less about beating the game than it is about enduring the bugs, lag, and assorted other interuptions. But far more damaging is that the current news about the high level content being essentially unplayable without investing hundreds of dollars (if even then) destroys any motivation to advance. Take that motivation away and the myriad of bugs, lag, and other issues go from being annoyances to unbearable. That costs the game players and the developers money.
@tidal notch
https://prnt.sc/oX6a0vWDnwzi
Scopely is trying to entice players to buy this. I can only hope that many players, in protest against this outrageous scam, refuse to invest any money in it. Charging money for a game where bugs throw parties is simply perverse.
Are there any moderators that read and answer any of these questions. A friend of mine who does not have discord has not had battle pass this whole time for this new, I think itās called an ARC. He has sent tickets, but there is no resolve. Thank you.
with mk7 Ente-e not possible this loop is sheisĆe
I use the same thing except I actually blocked the redirect site to whatever they call that pay page haven't used it in 4 years so can't remember and too lazy to go through my growing list of places I don't visit rofl
<@&509690795536941056> waves do not seem to be scoring. Did 2 elite 50 waves and no score for the season pass
yep because if we all having a fit being in the 60-80 range and we ain't enjoying any of this new content and your down in the 40s you have time for it to get better before you get up here. Meanwhile we either engage and pay huge repair bills to only get pennies or we dont engage and slow our progress down to whatever we could do before this gong show the past 6 months.
Borg event when?
<@&509690795536941056> it took 20 mins but finally scored. Anything other updated about lag other than we are looking at it?
Loading times when clicking through events and menus, doing exchanges in faction shops and the refinery and things like that are really slow since yesterday's update, with longer loading times than before. All other problems and bugs with the game aside, this really takes the fun out of it.
So apparently you have now completely taken away the option to sign into the web store using a password. It now takes twice as long for me to sign in, and sometimes I have to wait minutes or more due to there often being a delay in my emails. This is NOT an improvement. Please provide a 'settings' function where I can select how I want to sign in.
As if somebody knew what I was writing, it magically got a bit better now. It was really bad directly after maintenance and when I logged in 15 minutes ago. Still annoying.
I second this password comment above.
I am getting really sick of the notifications to do some new event or reach out the players that quit, or remember to upgrade your ships. The only reason I have notifications turned on is so If my alliance is running armadas, or if my base is attacked. This creeping on my time outside of the game, behavior makes me want to just quit the game altogether. STFC keeps adding new things that absolutely no one wants and does not fix things that they do want and it's getting old.
I would like to only opt into attack notifications ( when they work 𤣠)
Yeah. The server has been quiet lately but last time I was attacked, I did not get a notification and they raided my for at least 40 minutes. smh
Worst customer service ever... Takes a full week to get a response, they do absolutely nothing, no notification or email that a response has been sent (even if you put your email down for one), and the ticket gets closed within a minute of the response so you can't even msg back. Overall 0/10 experience š
Please change the faction rep chart order back. Mixing it up like this was an unnecessary action
Omgggg i freaking hate this game . 3 restarts and nothing changedš¢š¢š¢š¤¬š¤¬š¤¬
So many duo wave events. Not enough directives for even 1 duo wave
Oh look! At least this rewards window is ACCURATE! Donate and get ZIP in return!
Why canāt scopely create an alliance bank from which members can draw? Those who have mats they donāt need can donate to the ones IN NEED.
Oh waitā¦.i know! Canāt CHARGE people good money if they can get it from alliance matesā¦.
And why do we not have a gifting option like just about every other RPG does? Why canāt we send gifts to each other in our alliance? Same reasonā¦? Canāt get as much money if we gift each other extraneous resources apparentlyā¦.
Scopely is KILLING this game ā¦.
MOST of the changes made are unnecessary it seems.
You're auto assign for the 5* away assignments is flawed.
40% chance of success with your auto assigned crew, 60% chance of success with my selection, no change to the chance of crit! Are you now designing this to fail as well to steal our tokens??!!
This system always prioritizes the crit chance. Doesnt care that it reduces the overall success %
But the critical chance hasn't changed, different officers, better chance of success, same crit chance!
Absolutely the truth, this was my 4th ticket for the same issue that they repeatedly took a week or more to reply, and then would either say they fixed it without actually doing anything. or just auto-close the ticket.
how long ago was this?
it's because you're only hitting one trait, their auto-assign had more trait points, but the overall chances are so low for you that you're essentially seeing minimum chances anyway. I'd suggest saving your P1 tokens until you've got maxed officers and have at least 3 of the traits in play. Those chances are almost certainly going to fail anyway.
Probably never, unless you mean the new conqueror Borg armadas...
was a couple weeks ago, It finally got resolved though.
@raw fiber Can you please remind the developers to not change small things that no one asked for, but instead to focus on the long list of things that the players have asked to be fixed for the last 5 years? If seems that the Devs need some help in setting priorities. On the slim chance that changes like the one above are needed as part of a bigger fix (i.e. changing deeply embedded flawed code), let us know up front.
The devs priority is to make as much money for the shareholders as possible until this game dies, not to actually make the game enjoyable.
Surprised they haven't made a pack to make the GS viable for duo waves
well thats cause scopley still considers you a level 2 player rofl sorry figured we could all use a joke today
I've suggested skins for aggregation etc., but they don't want easy money, they was to earn it the hard way, by driving away Star Trek fanatics.
Yeah for such a money grabbing company I dont get them sometimes.
The Simulacrum Skin for Vengeance is only available for Ops 71+
G7 players have the surge research which makes the training hostiles alot easier to kill so its just a waste of money for them to buy the skin
Ops 70 have none of that so people would have jumped at buying the Skin
Same BS with me , Iām over it
Finally I've got the BP and the points.
And what did you do to get it? I still don't have it.
Which is dumb because if you buy the pack for the building you have even more crit mitigation
also true, 55k is a pathetic amount really. since The building at 22 is 2.3k more crit mitigation than the skin
They never officially retired the old one so would be great is they bring it back so we can spend the rest of our currency
About 5 days ago I have sent a ticket. Then they've told me to clear the cache, tnat did not work, I've sent another message, and the have never answered me, but the BP appeared yesterday I think and today I could collect the rewards (did not get to open the points, I was just able to collect the rewards).
Yeah, I wonder about this sometimes as well, if I would be in charge of sales, I would introduce "dynamic packs", "oh you are missing only 32 plans for the new ship?", "well here's a pack with 32 plans and reasonable pricing for those" and so on. Often feel they are missing out on actual sales and reasonable pricing for stuff instead of adhering to price categories. People don't wanna overbuy!
Something like this would adapt every time you get closer to a ship or whatever. They really should be more capitalistic š
why when they can offer 100$ pack with unreasonable number of bps and people will still buy it xD
I think that there should be less packs. What is the point of buying everything. Where is the fun in it.
noone forcing, its everyones choice
I understand they have to make money with packs, but why not make it actually "worth it" and not make people feel like they are getting ripped off. Ultimately this wouldn't increase the number of packs, just introduce dynamic pricing to some packs. Why would anyone but an addict overpay for something they are only missing a certain amount parts on that are less than the 50 or 100 packs they often sell.
It's impossible to sell a pack without it being as valueless as possible
Of course, I have just stated my opinion.
for the spenders to buy stuff, they got itchy fingers
thats true no one is technically forcing anyone to buy packs. Though technically by making g these new loops as hard as they can and even the whales who buy pretty much everything say its hard they're basically forcing you to pay if you want to engage or you have the other option of ya know waiting 5yrs from grinding other things to engage with the content. Do they literally force you no but they way they going they're saying pay or this content and any other content coming out isn't for you
I am ops 35, got Talios and I don't have anything to do with it. All nano probes I need I get from Vidar Archives. Can't even upgrade it because it's ops locked, and Borg Solo I do with other ship (Talios is too weak)
ofc pay if you want to do it on day one/month one or wait until its doable f2p later, thats the business model as it is, nothing changed in past 8 years
Nice! Today upgrade dauntless and Reliant. Then tomorrow, in Interestellar Dominance same upgrades.
it's 48 hours for the upgrades, but goond point to wait!
my point was when a whale considers it no longer fomo but ptp then you know a company has progressed into a service which no longer cares about you if you don't pay. it was always pay if you want which was fine because the premise was do it now and skip x months of grinding. The thing is now it's no longer measured in months but year's what's next decades. A company can only expect so much before even the spenders say no dice and quit spending or even playing and we are close if not at that point now. Scopley needs to do a hard stop and really look to see if the juice is worth the squeeze rather than just keep moving forward with their heads down. Though it don't matter to me who am I just a gamer who has seen this happen time and time again to other products with a much bigger gamerbase but I regress you do you buddy
New Android and ios update in stores available, but no info
Lol, 500 pts š«¤
Iām 500 short too, nice of em to say heads up you get nothing for today š¤£
sadism in its purest form š
G5 can get epic reliant parts... Why no scoring for those? You should have left g5 as new content.
<@&509690795536941056> @tidal notch @raw fiber your announcement about server merges not going ahead following player feedback is absolute nonsense. I have not seen 1 player from 114 or 402 say they didnāt want it!
We have been part of the 114 Discord since it was first announced and we were all looking forward to it!
More gaslighting about listening to players.
Come on scopely! Cant you even go 1 day without breaking something?!
Actually.... we heard quite a bit of feedback about the other merge with 76 and 710.
Even though I thought it odd to merge a server 2.5 years younger than us, wasn't very much opposition
Really? There are a whole lot in the 76 and 710 discords desperately wanting the merge.
<@&509690795536941056> My Lords, your humble servants from the Duchý of 114 beseech thee to find us a different merge at an agreeable time to you, since the previous one was considered inaproppriate. We will pray for your good health and judgement.
That said, why would ya guys not merge the EU servers while cancelling US merger? lol
<@&509690795536941056> s76 needed this merge for a long time. Take that feedback and stop gaslighting us.
This must be No Chests Day! Didn't get 1 for Battle Pass Points or Wave Defense Pass even though it shows we should have received something
Really? That didn't seem like a lopsided merge? 76 has been around a lot longer than 710...
Sounds like 114 still needs a merge. will pass along.
<@&509690795536941056> any word from management on the state of the game? We're still waiting for word on:
- A concrete QoL burn-down list with dates.
- Restoration and protection of player value mechanics.
- Better separation between bug recovery and new paid offers.
- Clear evidence that community feedback is shaping design decisions before damage hits revenue.
I hear there was a big meeting with Content Creators yesterday, which is a good step, but we need to be informed too. Not through second-hand information, directly from management.
Lmao....710 has a lot of big players and 76 has a lot of little ones....it is totally evened out...not to mention 50% of 710 are alts we already played with lmao
Whilst weāre talking merges, 409 needs a merge, feed us to 404 š¤
Canceling the 710 merger was a mistake
We were actually excited and ready to play hard again. Now why bother? 76 has been dead for ages and there is no reason to log on today.
So why does that affect a server merge that actually wanted it?
Thank you my friend, we are at the very bottom of active players in EU.
Such a damn joke. If you didnāt get that before why announce it then? Most of 76 is about to give you a big sign of your mistake.
402 needs a merge too
S76 defo needs a merger to breathe new life into it. The cancellation has ruined the hype that was had
I'll pass it on. Sounds like 76 needs fresh blood.
We've been bleeding quite a few players every week, going by stfc.pro numbers
Only gained 1 player between yesterday and last Tuesday, so probs someone returning from inactivity
I'm an old 77 player, merged into 76. I quit for a long time and started playing again. There is a significant cadre of active mid-ops players who would love more players to compete with. We were all looking forward to the merge but it was delayed. We were told it wasn't about player feedback, but now the message is that it's about player feedback. So personally, I'm bummed and my alliance mates are bummed.
Same can be said about the 710/76 merge, i only know of one person that cried about that one
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1137764537509093477/1460615348117176504/image.png?ex=6a05c38b&is=6a04720b&hm=452eddaab0c5870a4426a621c537c6051402bc3ef7a803b431cc0a0f56d45607& 13th of January numbers
We lost 230 players in 4 months
Love that we were told that it wasn't postponed due to player feedback only to have it canceled for player feedback. You are also repeating back the same talking points of a certain low ops cc alt that had a temper tantrum. They were the only one alone with their minions that didn't like the merge idea. Having all of us suffer for one small opinion was not the entire 2 servers feedback.
So judging by the responses they have got the server merges wrong again and just thinking about their short term goals I.e money. Rather than look at the community aspect of the game.
RIP S76, I've heard from several players that are looking at archiving accounts now
The above numbers were only peaking at 1860 because of random seeding that was noticed prior to opening new servers, mind.....
Just a reminder! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxyD9cfiaS0
First and foremost, just so @everyone is clear, I am not quitting Star Trek Fleet Command. I will be riding this hellaciously fun/tormenting train until it flies off the rails completely. That said, I wouldn't advise that for most players and sometimes the best way to love Star Trek Fleet Command is to take a break from. Any relationship can gr...
It will be the same on the EU merge too by the looks of it
S76 needed that merge... find us another since a certain 710 player threw a hissy fit.
Two more joining that list now. Crap isnāt worth playing without fun
Is anyone else seeing that the main battlepass isn't scoring? I finished today's event, but it didn't advance the BP score.
@tidal notch genuine question, has tonightās feedback regarding the server merge highlight that your bosses have got this wrong?
All 4 servers seem to be crying out for a merge and I have no doubt that plenty of other servers probably want / need 1 too.
Please reconsider the server merges for 402 > 114 and 710 > 76 or at least look at other options for future server merges
There seemed to be no opposition from either server regarding the 114-402 server merge, at least nobody openly voiced it out so if there was any, it would have been a very small number of players. Both servers made an effort to unite discord servers and prepare for it. If there were complaints regarding the other pair, Im not sure why should that affect 114-402 @tidal notch
@tidal notch speaking of which, I think we are all curious to know how you got this feedback. This can give us a better idea of how complete that was/prepare us for next merges. Because there was no mention of such in the channels here/on cintent creator videos. So was it in pms to you guys? Was it via tickets? Somehow Else?
I would say transparency is always appreciated.
The only one I saw against 710>76 is RevDeuce. There are quite a few on 710 that 76 would be like a homecoming to.
Personally as a 710 player, wasn't pumped about the selection of 76 but we desperately need a merge imo so was whatever on it going forward.
Does Rev have an alt on one of those servers then?
He has one on 710
That explains the āplayer feedbackā then
His whole how to archive video was in response to the merge announcement
Yet that feedback has probably done more damage to the community because they donāt want to upset big old Rev
Etet you are way too nice š¤£
114 needed a merge 1.5 years ago
Yup at this point I would suggest 114 remove roe altogether for 1 week a month if not permanently and let carnage reign just to make it fun again š¤£š¤£
Give 114 a proper viking funeral by burning everything down
Yup and do it before we bleed anymore players
I approve
Oooh I like merge 114 and 76 š¤£
So I guess scopley is actively trying to kill off servers now.
RIP STFC.
RIP 76.
Players are archiving but scopley doesn't care about players unless you're a certain one
gotta love how they force merges on servers that didnt need it (704 into 705 two mid/high pop servers) but the servers that ASK for mergers get ignored.....funny that...
I'm guessing you guys are collateral damage so they can pretend that 710>76 wasn't axed over Rev throwing a fit.
Literally saw almost no opposition when it was first announced. Several of our og players went to 710 so some of us were excited to get to play together again. Not to mention 76 needed a merge a year ago at least. It's a dying server.
710 here. I was very mildly in favor of the merge.
is this a design fail or something? because at ops 70 players are able to double or even triple pull with g6 loot, and at g7 we need g7 loot which is impossible to grind without high tier venga or g7 unc, and are limited to a single daily conversion pull like this
so I guess my question is: why is an ops70 player getting a better deal on this new grind, compared to an ops 71 player? it is not balanced and it is very limiting to the progress of early g7 players, which in turn leads to ppl playing less time and less engagement means less revenue in the end <@&509690795536941056>
My main point in favor of the merge was that I would love to be able to play with more (and new) people. It keeps things interesting.
My main point against the merge is that, because of the unique circumstances of the merge, certain 710 power structures were being reinforced. (I personally was hoping that a merge was going to make things exciting because we've had one-party rule in 710 for a while, and would love to have seen a shake-up.)
There are a group of players who were original from 76 who are now in 710. A subset of those players (the loudest ones) have been rude to me on 710, and they seemed to have been powered up by the promise of the merger. It was hard to express myself in the 76 Discord because I felt actively pushed away by this subset of players.
That being said, I was still mildly in favor of the server merge. The majority of folks in 76 are great people, and I would have loved to play with them.
I will say that not all of us in 710 felt comfortable expressing ourselves in the 76 Discord, so opposition might not have been seen on the 76 Discord (but was present in other places).
Oh Gloria.. stop already!
I'll just say this, they do not care about my opinion, I can assure you lol
