This game struggles with player agency already and just took away the biggest part of it
Stop changing š© that's not broken and fix the š© that is broken.
It shouldn't be that difficult.
Ive collected that too but still not reward
SOoooooo....with FINAL WEAPON GOING AWAY......what's the new free route for obtaining the premium mirror dust weekly going to be?
pretty sure scopely ghost everyone friday-monday every week, and only have half days tue-thur .. because they only learned what a weekday was last year
In fact....I'll bet that you don't have the meenocks to keep a free route for ANYTHING available.
SCOPELY FYI: If you change current dailies to force us to do new content like waves, while said content is still tuned to be impossible without the current flavor of the month ship/building, and also while most of it still doesn't work and is crippled by lag, it will not go the way you think/want it to. It'll just be (accurately) seen as another change to force spending by those who can't do it and even more will quit. Believe it or not, the average player can't afford to spend thousands a month unlocking every new thing and catching them up to current, useful levels. And those who can mostly already are. Changing event scheduling is not fixing the game.
Why not scrap every single event and just admit itās buy packs only. Anything that helps us advance gets slowly whittled away to the point of uselessness
Itās Pay to Play and nothing else now
<@&509690795536941056> Why has Mid Ops been forgotten it seams like we do not matter to the game anymore and with this new gutting of events you have just taken more way from us My question is when are we finally going to get some love from Scopley or is it time to just go play a new game???
If you chase off the FTP players, the whales will have nothing left to feed on. Without the FTP players, the entire ecosystem collapses. Just saying.
garbage stop changing things if you want a pay to play game make a new game stop changing this one to suit your ambitions your not gonna get any richer your killing the game and it will collapse to many whales leaving the game for your competitors games wake up and see the writing on the wall scopley its plain to see your killing the game
I wonder when feedback will solicit content input from players.
Scopley just canāt seem to do anything correctly.
That will never happenāScopely is far too arrogant for that.
@finite mural #š¬-general-feedback message Ive raised a ticket to see if i can get it resolved
Heya Scopāsā¦, thought I probably ought to mention that if these new weekly āprogressionā events are really nothing more than new weekly āpay moreā events, youāre going to see an even bigger drop in players than youāve already seen recentlyā¦.
I mean, seems so elementary that it could go without saying, but you guys donāt really seem to pick up on the common sense, logic, player interest piece all that wellā¦, so figured Iād better put out the PSAā¦. ššš»
Youāre welcome š
Letās hope itās not a āpay moreā event. I like how itās for the lower level ops players. It gives them a chance to do something. I myself have ops 64 cooking and I am in no hurry to get to 70. I have heard horror stories about it š
Does nobody at Scopely get it!? We donāt want new/renamed events or new contentā¦we just want you to FIX all the bugs that are already thereā¦and have been there from the beginning!!!
I was in the dead space of ops 51-54 for a couple of arcs where even the mid ops BP didn't really exist and now they moved everything to 61 and I qualify for mid ops again I got the BP and.... It just felt like the Hodge podge between arcs. There's nothing really helping me move on, there's no active story or new loops and I can't close off old loops without IA 61 so.... What is there? There's only the acquisition of rare and epic FKR ships to keep me invested in the game. Everything feels paywalled and F2P access to officers/FTs/CTs/PTs is unclear.
I don't really care about the aggressive monetisation because if this game can't keep itself at a base level of functionality AND keep me invested in playing I'm certainly not spending, it's just surely you'd want to give all players those things or... They leave.
Great! Events to tier up Voyager and Vidar even though theyāre already ops-locked. Not getting the CC with that, Scopely. š
the only way Mid Ops will matter to them is if we get a influx of whales and they demand change if not then we are screwed
Well then whale feeding grounds will dry up. Then they will complain and scopely will cater to them. I mean they are paying for their Mega yachtās after all
Do us a favour, declare bankruptcy and go spend the money you have made. You have taken a favourite past time and extorted it for everything you possibly could. Too many people have spent thousands and for what? Too many lives ruined because they have got into debt and again for what. They will have nothing to show for it, if it wasnāt for the friends i have made in game I would have left years ago and like a crack addict all that money spent has been worthless.
so true is sure is not being spent on game development the stae of the game shows that for sure
I was wondering the same thing... That's the one event I really do like! Especially after investing the time, tokens and passes to get the feesha maxed out
I can bet my incoming compensation, updating the game won't make a difference after maintenance. Technic šissues are a feature ššš.
I'm trying to figure out who approved this part of the message.
Remaining Admiralās Tickets will be exchangeable for 1:1 Officer shards of your choice from the Admiralās Recruit selections.
Each Officer shard will cost:
60 Admiralās Tickets per shard
1 officer shard costing 60 admiral's tickets is not 1:1 it's 60:1
No wonder things are down bad with performance, simple math eludes them, how can we expect to get coding logic to work right.
oh yay, some token events because you moved the story past the large part of some servers lol
Duh, youāre supposed to buy it silly head
Open the borg event shop if you aren't going to bring it back before just retiring it please.
You should make the whole game cross server like the veil, that way everyone can suffer evenly and a few people can run the game for everyone instead of just 71+. š
Their servers can barely handle the current per server population š¤£
Premium Mirror dust will be in the Meta rewards for ops 51+.
and for us G4s?
I forget at which ops the MU becomes available...
40, with the NSEA Protector.
That sounds reasonable to me. I'll raise it.
I'm hearing we'll be adding Premium MU Dust for players Ops 40+ in the meta rewards. Thanks for the callout.
I'm just glad I could help
A hero you are....
Ain't I just
Itās very bold of Scopely to have purchase popups when they canāt take the time to improve the current state of the game.
Okay then with mu dust but what about xindi armada event that gives us g6+ folks sigma trit?
I was wondering first off why we are all commanders and not captains? Are we not worthy? Second off could you please get rid of the join now buttons in the factions on dailies. I keep on forgetting to hit them and I lose a lot. If that could be done that would be awesome thank you
I'm listening to the M91 arc preview, and I have to say, Scopely GM is failing, and Scopely SVP needs to really think about value to content. Every.... single.... new ship.... the launch pack doesn't even get you past Tier 1. And this ship like the others will likely only benefit players "IF" it's at the right ship level.
I haven't even done ONE DuoWave yet. NOT ONE. Because you made it so difficult that you HAVE to spend to play the content. THIS is the very reason why I refuse to buy these things now. I bought the Sphere launch pack, a few weeks ago, I just got to Tier 2. And now there isn't any content to use the sphere on. So it's a waste of money with no value outside of events.
The Athena is setup to be more of the same. So BEFORE you launch it, address the short falls that DJZ has identified where it generally makes DuoWave measurablly better with JUST THE LAUNCH PACK. If you don't, you're going to lose more players. This player has already stopped spending on the game. And without a change, rapidly, it's going to be a further winddown of gameplay.
The game must be fun to play as the game. Not because you are spending in it. At 69+ you've made the love of the game almost impossible without spending.
To recap what you can do in thee very short term:
- Fix the V'ger hostiles so it's not so hard to do at your ops level (this is the thorn in my side right now because I can't kill Orions at my ops level)
- Change the Athena launch pack so it is measurably meaningful with just the launch pack. No DPR, no shield, no hull.
And these are just two of many many things that Scopely could do to improve things but chooses not to.
** Please pass this onto whomever has an ear to care** <@&509691205798592532> <@&509690795536941056>
The main reason is not everyone is doing every faction, some people may be focusing on just one or two so being automatically in them would lead to negative rep they don't want
I am ops 69 and just finished my 1st G5 scrap. I go to scrap another and find they have raised the scrapyard requirement to 70. Is this correct, and where was the documentation / patch note about this? This is really frustrating
Scopely taking stuff away from players after Scopely makes mistakes is a real bad look
It's one of their patented methods
@tidal notch can you please bring back the borg event once or at least the store so we can spend our currency
i have played this game for many years but i really want to know. Why does "Scopley feel the comment " this item has been removed from the store! Sorry! " is an acceptable explanation for a programming error.
it took 22 minutes to splash the reward for interplexing becon ulock from the mavrick store after responding that it was removed from the store. really.
and this is a common issue
Packs, you get Trit from packsš
Dear Scopely.
I just took the trouble to review the rewards for the new event series, "Voyage Across the Void." Unfortunately, I was dismayed to discover that I no longer have any use for two-thirds of the rewardsāspecifically the meta-rewards. I have no idea what to do with items like "Outlaw Research" or "KSG Intelligence," for instanceāaside, of course, from pointlessly cluttering up my inventory. For me, the incentive to participate in this event would be much higher if the rewards included at least a few components from the previous arcs. Perhaps the reward structure could be reconsidered.
Voyager and Vi'dar are pretty easy to max anyway, so maybe they should do the Stella (with 1M rare and epic Uranium in the reward chests), Discovery, with enough parts to max it an complete the research, Vindicator, Eviscerator, and Mantis, D'Vor... ships that have tight useless loops
I dont know player that dont have those maxed already ... those ate like 25years old ships now... idea is nice but ahain to late to small...
What about fixing issue like very small transogen nodes?
True, i checked the higher level system for bigger epic transogen nodes but only end up with far less
The issue is that those nodes while being faster are smaller then in other Systems if you are Warp Range is below 1500. Above that the bigger/faster nodes start, that's why so many OPs 6x player stick in the 50 System around.
So once again scopely punishing players for getting higher ops and ship upgrades to make our life harder
it kinda helps people who are online while mining but doesnt help anyone else
you do know there indeed are bigger nodes in higher lvl system? not in the next up but usually the next G system, i.e. 60, 70, etc.
Last day for Officer Depot!!!! Scope once again ruins something great only to substitute something terrible in its place. As Ive mentioned earlier, sadly they will still offer depot tokens for events, likely at the same rate now making those events useless
I had a friend try out the game despite my suggestion not to.
They deleted it after 3-4 days. Here is what they experienced:
- Dailies tasks not registering points at all for multiple days.
- Multiple events that didnāt register points despite doing what the scoring card says.
- Every time the game closes or reboots, their ships are docked.
- The Field Training area rewards were inaccessible
- Attempted to transfer servers from one of the new ones to an established one. The button did nothing. Then overnight their server leaderboards showed established server, but teams were still the newer server. The Galaxy chat was blank thereafter.
- And because of the wave of tickets all over, they contacted CS day 1, CS didnāt get to them really until Day 4 and suggested to clear cache. (Spoiler: didnāt solve anything). And CS thought they transferred from an old server to a new one. (Didnāt look at any of the logs or read the message)
old officers with bonuses like 10% to base shield, 5% base weapon damage etc. need rework because that does nothing
Thats a BS... its the highest token system on my screen
Please address lag before lunching your new cool looking ship, there is no way I am buying it in this lag ridden environment
are we going to have a fix for maverick task keys not resetting with the task reset and instead resetting on a rolling 7d cooldown from the last claim? i get 2 days to use mine, unless i skip a week, then it'll slowly slide through the week as play time isn't strictly identicaly week-to-week...
This was raised but got side tracked, it should be in the works soon.
10 hours since the last time anyone said anything in our Alliance chat. 3 hours ago someone did an Alliance Consumable. It's dead, Jim.
Shut it down.
That's only a problem if you like talking to people š¹
if scopely want anyone to return they need to offer a massive comp or hand out, take the hit that they made themselves.
it starts with the often forgotten Mantis Comp ... if scopely had comped it back then what was it truly worth? not even a cent today but since its been left for 3 years, a 49.99-99.99 comp these days is worth a whole lot more. did it to themselves. it would prove to players that they are changing, but you know what? they wont ever comp the Mantis to the ppl that bought into that loop ... so no, not even revs video nor the announcements since will convince anyone with a brain.
scopely have to start with with the stuff they refused to fix or make right.
oh and #FreeMirrorUhura
#football #meme #uk #skysports #premierleague #soccer #british #championsleague #england #britain #gamesgone
you probably know, but getting a 2nd key at 30 gives you both keys on a single claim and timer, so at least my specific case is pushed back to a tuesday.
<@&509690795536941056> Is it possible to get a list of known bugs that have been identified and have that maintained and updated as they are found/fixed. Most software companies have a list like this, and it helps the players have more faith that the issues we all are experiencing at least have been acknowledged as being actual problems and will hopefully be addressed at some point. I know several players have put together some very good list in the past, but I have never seen anyone from Scopley even agree that these issues are problems that need to be addressed. Also, this would be more than just the known issues section here in Discord. I ask for this because letās be honest here Scopley has a creditability problem. There is no way to spin it other than we have been misled and right now this game is at a tipping point and the next couple of months will honestly dictate if this game survives or goes into maintenance mode.
The backlog is insane. If they are only looking at what that terrible bot hands off, then they have no reliable KPI. Someone on this discord was tracking the worst bugs consistently but I haven't seen those posted in a while. Given the volume of bugs and the character (and attention) limitations of Discord, perhaps a website would be a better medium to publish and track those. Obviously, Scopely has no incentive to be transparent about the issues and backlog, but us customers deserve to know
I was thinking something like a GIT setup
You mean people that are actually playing the game? If you do those while you're online and save your other mining/grinding for when you're not online, it may not seem like as much of an issue. Jsš¤·
I like that. I'd love to include images for clarity/context but that may not be efficient for that space. It's a great suggestion in my opinion, and long overdue. If Scopely did want to save this game and rebuild player trust, then they'd put it on their website so we could see progress and attention given to the issues we've been reporting for years
šÆ same page
Please add proper sourcing for Iila's V'ger sensor. The G7 SLB only gives to the top 5 and you guys decided to quietly end Echoes of V'ger with no warning, so it's nearly impossible to earn shards for the people who need it the most.
This is how QA teams operate in software companies that care about releasing a polished product. Long before actual users see it, even before unapid beta testers get their hands on it, a professional QA team uses an actual database to identify bugs and then as that list is updated, to test and verify the fixes.
Btw <@&509690795536941056> , you can tell the devs to stop adding new titles, you'll never top that one š
I would love to see UAT (User Acceptance Testing). A set of volunteers who can play through a release before it goes live would catch a lot more of the issues before release, reducing the likelihood of issues before the new content is published to production. It's usually integrated into the sprint cycle to minimize delays to the process, and any time invested in it is worth what it brings to quality control.
the problem is that only works if the company actually listens to the team and makes the fixes before releasing it. As long as they are more concerned with deadlines and schedules for releases than they are with the quality of the code, that will just create more frustration and anger.
Yep, I'm seeing the race to the bottom line is costing them their business
Put it this way, if WE'RE having a good time, you (Scopely) will have a good time. Lag, bugs and greed are not fun, so we get to hear about how STFC needs to be saved.
Let me put it this way. Nobody buys low-quality or defective products⦠and I wouldnāt eat at a lousy diner eitherā¦
But letās not kid ourselves⦠Scoply is only thinking short-term and wants to rake in as much money as possible in a short amount of time⦠in the long run, this game wonāt exist in its current form
Go stick your survey. It changes nothing.
I agree. I think of a steakhouse that wants to make a profit. Those that raise their prices and serve smaller steaks may make it for the month, but the customer has that conversation on the way home about how much more expensive it is and how the quality has gone down, and from then on they look for other restaurants. The steakhouses that serve more will get their customers bragging about it and bringing their friends, which long-term makes them successful. This has gone from a steakhouse to bologna with up charges for the plate.
With the new weekly event structure, is there a way they are making up for the lost sigma faction credits by removing the limited time fleet commander upgrade event?
my bad, didn't notice the "rare", since I no longer need to mine it at all š
guess I'll enjoy an extra long break tomorrow since we all know update day means game breaking lag that slows game down or shuts it down but hey it's on a Thursday maybe it'll be different.....
Please remove the current survey from an alert on our screens. The questions have been asked before and after the first 20 questions I gave up on this one. Not worth the electrons for asking
scopley ... if you are going to offer a survey for ppl to do when they sign in let them do it even if you can not data farm my or others private info the fact you end it the second someone doesn't want their info farmed you cancel the survey ... that just shows that you do not care what we say you just want to farm our info so you can sale it off and make more money off of us as we already feel abused by you with these arcs and sky high costs of stuff that give us very little for the steep cost.
when did i miss this update? that timer has been doubled if im not mistaken <@&509690795536941056>
Time in that always shows like an extra week, always has for me. I ignore it and am pleasantly surprised when I get an extra 1k rare gas š
How about "I got Scopely'd"?
Glad to see the proactive messaging reminding people to complete anything in the leased builder queue. Wait - no messaging exists. I guess thatāll be a tomorrow problem for Scopley.
Your support needs work
How is it that your support essentially confirms that notifications were sent out later than expected for a base raid (later than expected was 36 hours later) and then return only half of the resources taken and say āthis will be a one time resource return onlyā
Maybe fix your game
"Players with an active streak will unlock expanded Bulk Claim functionality"
"Hey guys, we could have a pretty big W, but we need to screw it up"
You have been giving mouth service to level 3 and 4.players for a year now and all we see is 70 and up gdtting gheir arses kissed by you
So from what I am gathering from reading the news about the new update, there is no real quality of life improvements and everything hinges on logging in everyday? I'll just set another 7 day day shield once this last expires in 3 days. Nothing to see here folks. Just two full times jobs, both with overtime. That is what this game has become.
Great way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Sigh.
So on top of the events dont before to boost people up through G3 and G4 you now do this, nice, but you also pushed all the story up to 61+, gee what a great time to be in G5 .. LOL
Absolute donkeys
Hey hey, no need to insult donkeys š
Willful, intentional stupidity
You can actually feel the disdain they have for us
The worst part is, most of us would login every day anyhow. This whole thing is just a kick in the shin. Just because.
You're not serious?
This after claiming they will simplify the game for g3 and g4 playersš "Now multiply the time you take to click buttons if you dare take a leave of abscence, that will show you what happens if you dont progress quickly"
<@&509690795536941056> I'm going to throw out a wild idea here. Why not create a product where people actually want to log in, rather than this absolute fool nonsense of trying to force people to in order to get basic QoL functionality?
This is just more of the same of why there's no one left in game.
Dont worry, in 3 weeks you can buy a Bulk Claim Prime
Scopely is concerned that we don't have enough daily reminders that they are š©
Locking something behind a barrier means it's no longer a quality of life feature. Might want to update your wording Hammy.
almost surprised they didn't charge $99 for it, like they did for fleet preset slots
That 7 day streak thing is just utterly unnecessary. WHY WHY WHY...
Way to try and somewhat artificially bump player activity levels by forcing this 7day streak so ppl can bulk claim
False promisese. False team . False companie . Ruined game that's clinging to a needle thread .
"Know what will help get players back? More of the same!"
No way, because people are fed up of the lags, bugs and crap gameplay and arenāt logging in as much, scopelyās answer is to dangle the carrot of quality of life improvements but only if you log in for 7 days in a row to activate it each time.
This just gets better and better, you couldnāt make it up! š
May I suggest moving the ships and other basic game functions to be unlocked after a monthly streak?
It's by design. They can't help themselves. They have to make it awful. It must be turned into something much dumber than was asked for.
so you give a compensation with emergency rations, that you've before extremely debuffed to make it nearly worthless? What a "move" Scopely š©
āhey scopely, iām taking a few days off bc my dog died / im giving birth / iām getting married / just existing in the real world with real prioritiesā
thatās fine but your game will be significantly worse when you return!
jesus christ š way to ruin yet another long asked for feature
Do you want to even dare explain a rationale you expect us to believe or accept, why you're locking such a requested feature, what should be an awesome QOL (bulk faction and more chest claims), behind logging in 7 days straight? And why it gets ruined if you miss a single day?
Do you want to even try to express ignorance or confusion why people are so negative when you pull stuff like this? Just a stupid and unnecessary barrier.
Players below Ops 20 were also impacted. Please stop needlessly excluding everyone below Ops 20. Thanks.
These bulk claims should be a BASIC part of the game with no create-the-problem sell-the-solution nonsense, and no attendance nonsense. You already have the daily login calendar to reward consistent engagement. Stop trying to force players to play the game 24/7, burn out, and then take their hard earned latinum, I mean money, you know that thing you care about, elsewhere!
Iād expect this level of stupidity from a group of children when asked how to get players to log into a game more often.
If you miss a day logging in, youāll be punished with a minimum of 7 days of a return to hundreds of clicks taking you 20 to 30 minutes thanks to the screen transition lag.
What a way to bring about a worse game fatigue than never having the QOL improvements to begin with. Duh. š
You know scopely, when we complain about not getting items like trellium, artifact pieces, ship specific items like berillium, irvinite, charged nanoprobes, Cerritos items, Discovery items specific to the discovery ship etc, tossing us 2 annorax shards, and 1000 field rations that won't even get us a galactic recruit, but will get us a boatload of resources that we have growing out our ears, and a smidgen of syndicate experience, we can't help but sit here and go wtf am I still here for? I get disgusted. Infuriated. Fed up. And lots of words I can't say in here. Because this wasn't something we did wrong, it was something in a long line of things that YOU did wrong. I mean it's bad enough that we can't even get a decent $25 pack in the store that would give us a fourth of an unlock of a ship or a fourth of an officer that we've been trying to get, or a few items that are ship specific, because it's all or nothing in that damn store because you can't get off the $49.99, $74.99 and $99.99 kick, but you have to insult us with things like this. This is not an apology. This is a "we really don't care how bad we screwed up we're going to toss you this little tiny bone and you're going to be happy with it. " Response. So while some may take this as me being ungrateful, I guess I am being ungrateful because you guys don't understand a dang thing about us. And what's worse than that? You don't care. š”š¤¬š And those surveys you send out that don't allow us to really give an honest answer to anything? Yeah you can keep those too.
@finite mural <@&509690795536941056> @rigid vapor
Two days ago my Dauntless could kill 59 aggregation reds in one run, still having some hull left. Today, after upgrading the ship a bit and doing two researches for Dauntless, my ship is dead after 75% of the auto-run 𤬠WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?????
Hey! This bulk claim thing is waaaay overdue. But⦠why implement a 7day streak? I know people that will come back tomorrow if that barrier isnāt there.
But I had a late g6 teammate quit after going on vacay. Having a streak-snap is gonna negatively reinforce to stay off.
I know whoever thought this thinks itās honey. Itās really has vinegar off-gassing.
Hereās some overall feedback Iāve offered before:
Take the easy wins.
Hereās something else not said:
Get someone thatās actually good at PR.
If you would have just said, ābulk claim coming for faction stores and gift tabs,ā Rev Deuce or a bunch of these commenters would have automatically claimed whatever this patch to be at least a B or an overall win.
Now this massively impactful feature is mentally-tainted. Thereās a lot of people it wonāt actually impact. But you know what you lost? PRIME Player Goodwill
"Hey guys we can have a win here that will cost us literally nothing. How can we go about messing it up?"
Some feedback, there is too much emphasis on alliance, alliance requirements to finish and participate in events, give players the option to enjoy the game, rather than making it a requirement .
These dudes could re-nerf Leslie and players would probably still rate the month blindly B to B+ with a (mostly working) strings-free bulk refine.
That is the level of self-own one can never underestimate Scopely to be capable of.
Dear scopley.
I see you want me to take a feed back survey. Why ??
Your not listening to us now. And you have givin me no indication thats going to change. So respectfully. Cram it
Yours Truly
STFC Player
What the š¤¬!? Why is this thing only useful 5% of the time at tier 3!?
That is certainly a crew choice
Favors are purchased and it's tier 3... I hate you devs
Scopely - the company that gives with one hand, takes with the other, and then kicks you hard in the coin purse with a size 12.
Then awaits your credit card.
Maaaaan, if you wanna do log-in streaks or whatever just do it like every other game out there with daily login bonuses (random example here) and not this nonsense, especially punishing people for 7 DAYS if they miss one day is wild.
the battleships have a 30% chance of death beaming you. try hitting the interceptors instead. and yes, crew lives matter
Scopely can't help themselves. They are so used to farming all the Ls, they must find a way to ruin a good thing.
Keep showing us nothing will ever change because you just don't understand the most simple of things. This game's entire leaderships needs replacement - urgently.
no passwords to log in the the site anymore? take your code and shove it where the sun dont shine
This comp for what I went through is terrible.
GOD YES!!!!!
And the News icon! I've already gone and clicked on everything in there three times after reading the two new ones and it's still there on my screen!!!! šš¤¦š¤¬š¤¬š¤¬
I got real tired of the junk mail containing the codes a long time ago I think it was after the second day.
Are you guys ever going fix the game! I just claimed stuff again and nothing scored! Again!
They get the lowest score possible with every survey I have to complete and narrative I have to put in to explain why they got what they got. It's no use. They don't care. They don't listen. And they don't hire people that know how to do their job. And they don't give us proper options to answer the questions accurately. F's all the way. Every time.
It's okay though, they'll comp you for it, but it won't be anything near what you lost it'll be more crap that you don't need because it's growing out your ears.
Dear scopely, donāt make another cataclysmic error and get rid of the officer choice depot by replacing it with a random officer pullā¦.that decision will only double down on the missteps that have resulted in the mass exodus we saw last archā¦.im really hoping you make the right call. The draw rate on the choice route was slow enough to not de-incentivize packs but versatile enough to help smaller spenders and f2p players grow stronger all while giving them a reason to play the various sms and slb activities that rewarded the currency.
The compensation for the claiming issues this weekend is insulting. All the timers on my claims are messed up. This has real impact if you build a game around 22h timers. I need a days worth of claims to be able to reset everything.
Looks like lag or not being able to claim is back. Not getting credit for doing daily tasks now.
Kri'Shara. make it work
Queue targets is ability. yet no one seems to have that abilty anymore
last 2 compo's have been a slap in the face for all the issues, the first 2 shard only, then this one 2 shards and 1000 field rations,
<@&509690795536941056> can we get a Claim All Button in Away Teams please?
Dont be a silly sausage, that would be helping us, they just want to fleece us
Congrats on failing yet again Scopely!!!
wow you guys really dont have your stuff together. its just mistake on top of mistake
Scop can't even handle the simple thingsālike adhering to their own guidelinesālet alone tell time.
How can you not plan for stuff like that? Lack of professionalism and it's happening way too often and this is why I don't spend money anymore. You simply just don't deserve it.
Lol It has literally never stopped them before
And has never stopped them having takeovers during incursions either 
The Irony. We are making maintenance earlier so it doesnt impact takeovers.......................while also ruining the plans of people who thought maintenance was gonna be in the middle of takeover
another fail from scopely good job derps
Good job doing maintenance randomly before it was supposed to start. Can expect it to be broken afterwards
What the actual flagnog is blocked.
Slow clap
Events donāt end on time, why should maintenance start or end on time? š¤·āāļø
Amazing stuff. Cost me an armada and my daily claims will now be out of sync. They literally just don't think.
12 hrs golden shields. please.
Pure incompetence
hmm. such is game
Seriously?? You guys can't tell time?!?!?!?!?
WTH folks? 3:15 and maintenance starts⦠not the scheduled 4:00?
Maintenance is 45 minutes earlier than was stated earlier today! That is either very poor communication or very poor management.
For those of us that aren't always checking the chat for maintenance messages before they were supposed to happen.
the 15 minute warning was ...
And how many actually pay attention to gc half the time? Chat stays on ac for obvious reasons
The problem is they startedx maintenance 45 minutes earlier than they announced they would
Why do you even send out maintenance notes and times when you just do it whenever you feel like it.
WTF maintenance started early, thanks for warning NOT
I know, I was there for it
Stick to your published timetable. Maintenance 45 minutes earlier than schedule annoys everybody and portrays a management team in disarray
We're just being taken for a ride here⦠lied to and deceived⦠it's just unbelievable.
they announced it in Galaxy Chat
My server chat is typically really toxic, so I avoid it. Posting a revised schedule there is really not an effective way to communicate.
Another giant middle finger to the player base.
long as Kir'Shara works again.. tis my šæ
Besides, they should make such announcements appear in Alliance Chat as well. Many people only use Alliance chat and don't use Global Chat.
Just proves they donāt have a clue what their doing, wasnāt able to recall ships or put ships out for TC while maintenance on
annoucments should be all chats not just general as some people don't leave allaince chat often
Most people don't look at that chat because it's full of nonsense
Same. Between toxic and trolling, not worth the time to look. Rather deal with alliance mates
Seriously? You've been announcing this event for about a week and still can't get the time right?
- What about outposts that couldn't be started properly?
- Armadas that fail because you've been logged out in the meantime?
- The freighters that go OPC?
- ...
This is all crap again
Announcement via GC is useless for people that planned around the published time.
Guys! This much money and you can't afford a clock? Stop making mistakes!
AI credits expired at 9am, what were they to do 
Maintenance is supposed to be 2 hours long, who here is that optimistic?
whining is also useless. except for venting. there is much to vent about however.
Ascension tree and elite FKR hostiles very nice idea to bring some more life to mid level players
Why start maintenance early?!
And NO this makes it not better!
- Annouced yesterday for 8am UTC!!! Less than 24 hours ago, and then it gets postponed at the last minute
- Admin-Messages have at least send to AC too No one reads toxic galaxy chats regulary
Not like half of us pay attention to gc to see that anyways š¤£
Ha ha - maintenance started earlier than expected...
I never saw this and they never updated their Discord message.
This should have been on Discord too not in a chat that a large number of players don't look at. Using only a channel of communication that a lot of players don't look at is what is refered to as poor communication.
Oh I fully agree . But I don't think we will ever be able to get them to see that or understand it
I only knew about it thanks to someone in my alliance pointing out the 15 minute warning. Otherwise I would have been caught unawares.
I am awfully curious as to whose territories later today if it's supposed to last just two hours?
just another sample of, well you know, tis what they do alll the time
I would say something but I don't have internet
Cult of Walletality
This is the kind of thing that the new SVP Conner Stewart that is above even the head of this game needs to change in his attempt to turn things around for STFC.
general feedback : team, please either respect your announcements or give enough notice if you must alter to an earlier than planned. I think I can speak for everyone, time cannot be so relative and distorted in the blackhole that maintance has become š
not only every single one results in post-update glitches that should've been fixed years ago before I ever started playing, but they became far worse & too regular that it's a wonder any of us still play, really.
On paper, your announced changes to ease progression are great, but I must say that glitch fixing and time respecting should be addressed, this is at least the second time this happend
No.
I don't have any more words for you Scopley.
respect š your š players! š
Maintenance should never have been planned for Thursday in the first place. Thereā are no Territory Captures on Tuesdays because that has always been maintenance day.
As for announcing the change of time with a few minutesā notice and only in Galaxy Chat, which hardly anyone uses because itās so toxic⦠itās simply not good enough.
They would rather spend time coming up with new game modes that aren't enjoyable and have little to no engagement.
Also as for not wanting to interfere with territories... they stated that was going to be an issue for APAC servers so there would be a comp chest. So they were aware from the start that issue would exist. It seems they just want to avoid giving that chest they announced.
Scopely, you have a strange idea of how time works
#ā-official-announcements message
Incompetence in it's best form
And now for the counterargument to the last-minute schedule change:
Now Iād have time to set up the ships for the TT Defense. Unfortunately, I didnāt have time right before the event.
Thanks for nothing!
Ohhhhh Scope, ihr habt euch wieder mal noch nen fauleres Ei gelegt, als ihr es sonst schon tut 𤣠BITTE, stellt endlich mal COs ein, die mit Hirn arbeiten š¤£
If this is the SVP in charge, weāre all doomed. At least Connor could tell time.
Just another example of Scopely not giving a Åħìṯ about their players as usual
the stfc team got suprised by tc
not that they happen every week
bunch of incompetent (............) what cant even comunicate maintrance time
Expecting players to login every single day no matter what in order to unlock basic features would barely be acceptable in a functional game, much less one that works as poorly as this one with, still, no information about any actual fixes.
Well that's an ominous start...
How about we donāt give a ÅħĆČ about paying for packs anymore, bet that would get your attention
Get gud!
In other words⦠Ohhhhh Scope, youāve gone and laid an even rotten-er egg this time than you usually do 𤣠PLEASE, for the love of God, finally hire some COs who actually use their brains š¤£
You suddenly realized there might be conflict with some takeovers? Nobody noticed it before? And then you reacted spontaneously? What's going on? You're not usually known being so quickly to react.
If someone doesnt know about easy things like reading clocks...
I am sure that this is far from original, but I will say it anyway as it is fitting... In space no one can hear players scream in frustration at Scopley.
I have some feedback!
Maintenance should start at the time announced!
The toxicity on this Discord is 1000x worse than in-game GC.
<@&509690795536941056> good job going into maintenance early
But here, itās genuine!
Youāre clearly not on server 135. Iāve got so many of the people that regularly post in GC blocked that the messages I can see make little sense on the rare occasion I do look there.
WTF that guy can trim everything within an inch of his life but canāt fix his monobrow!?! Sorry I digressā¦.WTF Scopely you sük
<@&509690795536941056> it is totally inappropriate to go into maintenance early without any sort of ārealā communication. some of us planned to do our claims before it only to find downtime started two minutes ago. while i appreciate delaying a release for two days so brokely could fix a few things prior to release (something that also should have been communicated so there would be more acceptance of a thursday release) COMMUNICATION MUST IMPROVE regarding not only the āwhysā but also these sort of last second knee-jerk changes / reactions need to stop.
To all you haters here: how many of you will buy the new ship todayš
Thereās always one Goofy Goober in the audience
More than likely it's the devs not giving a š© and allowing the community team to just bear the brunt end of the playerbase
they have done nothing but show the player base blatant contempt for months now. it wouldnāt surprise me.
The fact any of us think they care about how we feel is the biggest delusion. i wonder what a week of no payments would affect them
Still the ship will sell like fire š„
And the poor community team who play messenger just get yelled at by the players and the devs
Yeah the delay to fix things based on feedback from the playtest (according to content creator itsLewb) is a go0od move, especially since it is a first for them. But it was probably better to extent the delay til next Tuesday to avoid this issue even coming up
Anyone that has worked in the industry will tell you that is exactly what happened. Has to be the worst job in any dev/game team. At least they get paid. The folk that do it for free/bp's are nuts.
I worked that job for many years. It's 100% what happened. Lol
I'd say the issue is with STFC's management more than the devs. They are the ones that make the decisions such as this one.
We all know that or feel that is the case
I'm sure the live ops producer is livid
Sooo glad the SVP is doing a listening tour for 5 weeksā¦
Time to start looking for another game whole alliance can move to as only reason we still playing this crĒp is cause we like our friends in alliance
Yeah that is the main reason I still play despite the issues
aren't we all?
Let me get this straight...you didnt want to impact a very specific TC so you impacted literally everyone instead?
Utter BS!!
Absolutely notā¦..not spending another penny until they massively improve the whole game, and even then it will need to be something game changing to spend on.
THis. Until I see big changes I won't even spend on cheap but impactful things like building or research queues.
We succeeded!! Slow mode is onš
At least they can't slow mode reactions!!!
We don't need more comms, we need clear comms.
Communicating a time and changing it at the last minute, is the opposite of clear.
So Scopely decided that the needs of the few outweigh the needs of the many by taking us into maintenance ahead of previously announced timings. Not quite the Federation way is it?š¤¦āāļø
Sounds more like Orion, to me. lol
Can't wait to get my compensation chest for the bonuses I'm losing from maintenance starting early
It will be 1000 parasteel
dear scopely, dont know, where to put this feedback in, but: the new officer Chancellor Ake with shoes on is not lore acurate! please fix this!
Scopely are clearly masochists, and get off on the amount of hatred they get from the player base. It's the only logical explanation for their decision making
I'm sorry but the NX01 locked behind ops71 is dumb. I'm ops 56 and pretty much done with the ship. If i've maxed the ship i've done the loop
Artificially Inflating content by locking it to higher levels
i need bps not parts in bp xD
I do the loop maybe once every two weeks. I do the weekly Xindi event if i remember. The ship will be maxed and i've done the loop. It's the equivelent of expecting G5 players to do Botany bay mnining
BB loop is a joke
Game currently updating, but still down
Totally not interested in the new arc...only interested that the game gets fixed by capable people
Thank you for the bulk faction claim. I will now buy packs again if you can do a streak of seven consecutive months with qol improvements.
Gatekeeping Quality of Life improvements is an incredible own-goal
<@&509691205798592532> <@&509690795536941056> again ⦠you learned nothing after the last arc.
You add again a new ship for 100⬠or you must play for4 till 6 month to get it ⦠and then you must upgrade it for additional month till it is useful.
And you let stay the battlepass with 3 stages ⦠standard, epic, mythic.
You want only more money.
You donāt want to fix the game.
yet you do it anyway, knowing how insane ops71 is as a requirement for a ship that NEVER gets used in G6 except for the xindeep if you want to farm some of the battleships.... You KNOW it because you added a wall of text about why longer than your actual bug fixes and you still did it. Just wow, no words, pure wow
The server won't even let me say what I want to say
Players Feedback: We dislike duo waves and wonāt bother doing them.
$copely: We donāt care and add even more of them and by the way, they now even take more time to finish.
What clowns do they employ to design these updates⦠š¤”
Main issues still not resolved:
ā G5 Scrapping still insulting
āFree Choice of Depot Tokens removed
āAT? all silence, no update after communityās last feedback
āQoL - being ignored, and adding more loops, more hostiles
āKirshara still not working properly
Back to put up my long-term shield and hibernating till they grow up and have playersā satisfaction as one of their priorities instead of maxing short term revenues. š¤
Yet more new content that can't be engaged with by most players. Making hostiles virtually immune to abilities that you make us build up over years, and giving them instant win powers, all so you can introduce a one-trick pony magic bullet of a ship is laughably poor design. You're like the 12 year old Dungeon Master who has to "win" when playing D&D. Grow up Scopely
<@&509691205798592532> <@&509690795536941056> i have a hint for you:
instead of making 3 stages to the battlepass and making it more expensive you should go back to the old one and make it cheaper
A cheaper battlepass would buy much more people and you will get more money
Itās psychological⦠do cheaper bundles and you will sell more.
But you do the exact opposite⦠you add bundles with less content for much more money to spend
I donāt understand your business modelā¦
From the patch notes: "Ops 51ā60 will have Dauntless and GS31 Parts." How about including a currency we can swap for BPs or parts as you need like you have been doing with Ops 20-50 for months now? The parts are not useful while we are still trying to earn the ships. Sorry if this in the wrong place, but I am unsure where to put it.
So if I read that correctly, this is the second attempt to move the Vengeance-Events so they won't "collide" with other Material Spend Events? Don't you guys remember the uproar after the first time you tried this and did set it back? Well likely you do but you think you will get it through this time around huh?
Where did I put my pitchfork ...
how about we get back to half the ship comes in the bp and the rest is done via easy to handle not to pay for not timecrushing ways/loops?
didn't they do the same with the meridian?
Meridian is not as bad as Mantis. It can be finished in G4 but cannot be mastered until 60
ah yes, it was the mantis not the meridian...i knew it began with an M š
Meridian is 56. I know because I am about to achieve its mastery. I am only waiting on using the 1* and 2* iso that I already have.
APAC chat fix when?
So you're saying that ships and loops that still have some value can't be archived as long as that's the case. What kind of nonsense is that?
We're getting six new loops a year now, and the archive isn't making things any easier for us... except when you're no longer playing them anyway because they no longer have any value. Fantastic.
Don't you worry, Stella will be in the archives once IA 76 is reached - so exciting
yeah, there is no excuse to be g6 and still not have an obsolete nx01 floating around. itās just a dumb idea.
Don't forget that in a week or so the weekly Xin Deep event is gone forever, so the NX-01 will be even less used by G6 players....all the NX-01 will be used for is for lower ops players to be able to reach the 70 systems to start armadas and get carries for the bigger starter chests. The ship will be legit useless for G6 players soon.
Ey.... Don't you spit on the nx. I use it to look into g7 systems to relocate my base
Oh yes, I shouldn't ignore the ships ability to look into deep space systems. In that case, totally makes sense for only G7 players to archive it lol
and the Mantis by Scoply logic people should still be doing the Mantis loop daily
wait what? i thought i maxed it long time ago š¤£š like before ops 60 𤣠now ops 65, i don't see any use with that ship š¤£š¤£ i used to grind xindi for alliance tournament but they changed the event too, so its just collecting dust now ā ļø
Pretty sure my Mantis poops daily
It is still ridiculous that the Meridian can only be mastered in the IA at 56
So nice of Scopes to start maintenance an hour earlier without telling us, until after they start it. š
What is the mantis loop?
Actian hostiles
i can see it, not agree with it, but understand it because the g5 rare miner mines iso so fast, the meridian is like using an envoy for iso.
Hostiles that stop at level 49... yet they expect us to keep doing the loop until ops 60
People hunt those?
Ummm...what? My Meridian will outpace your G5 faction miner any day
Obviously, I do EVERYTHING.
I even shoots worms for nostalgic reasons...
How good is Nova at mining iso? I have forgotten to test that. I am skipping the faction miners in G5 given they don't come until 58, which is ridiculously late
I doubt anybody at Scopely these days even knows what those are
I'd build them
I guess they do, as much as they listen and care for player feedback
Great, Extending Maintainance for another hour!!
why no patchnotes?
so you move the maintance due to TC times of the APAC servers, but you totally neglect the ones on the EU servers?
Can they extend maintenance till this arc is over?šš¤£
Thee Novas seems fine to me, especially once I get all three of the skins
APAC was halfway thru one and another started 15mins ago
What you don't know, they extend vs the initial announced maintenance time š
1h earlier, 1h later... 4h maintenance. Hurray
I think you'll still want them. Unless you're planning to skip the G5 epics as well....
Still wouldnāt fix anything, even with all that time!
My guilty pleasure is the most common reaction emoji to their official announcements is the š© reaction
Planning is very difficult.......
never skip the g5 epics š± the g6 ucs are so bad š¤£
QoL improvement - hybernate
. Check in every new arc launch
. If you don't like - set to hybernate - get all rewards /refines /faction pull /event rewards at the end of the arc
. Repeat until arc is good
I wasn't recommending it! I built every G5 ship, was just saying that Novas aren't going to be enough of a reason to not build G5 faction miners
They haven't had a good arc since Krenim was introduced
Mantis Comp when?
"We will be extending the maintenance by 1 hour. We appreciate your understanding, and we will keep you updated." In other words, you messed with everyone to avoid messing with people that were going for a single TC but in the end only achieved the former and failed to prevent the thing you wanted to prevent.
idk, I liked WOK even though people complained in the start
"While the NX-01 can be maxed out relatively early in G6" last opslock at 51 is not early g6 :/
Wok was done right
absolutely, mine was maxed by 53 iirc
Wok also introduced the last useful "must have" officers...
I am planning to skip those given they removed Epic Gas, etc from event rewards. Getting epic mats only from the refinery will be way too slow to be worth it.
WOK was the beginning of the end for me. That added so much time to game play that I stopped playing it a week after it dropped. Haven't done much with it since. Same with all the other arcs since. Takes too much time
"Ops 40ā50 will have NX-01 and U.S.S. Reliant Parts." if it is maxed at early g6 why does the nx01 stuff end at the ops 50 BP š
Well, glad you say that.
Now take your money, buy the new ship, so you can do more and longer duo waves.
The idea alone is so bad, it's hilarious
So you're planning to get to G6 with G5 rares, and let me guess...a Relativity and your GS-31, right?
WOK takes zero time. I set my Reliant out and it auto-grinds all rarities of splicers and I rake in tons of valuable rewards.
they removed epic gas? i thought there was only epic crystea and notinig else, ever.
same. epic gas was always a huge issue solved by scrapping
I really dislike the fact they moved the Vengeance events to during the week and away from the weekend spend event
Yeah i don't think I'll be buying a new ship just to do an arc.
This is my favorite grind in the game actually.
I have to admit I have barely done anything to my GS-31 as I hate Solo WDs (and group ones, but less so). But the truth is, I currently have no plans at all to go into G6 given how bad I have heard it is from many sources that I trust.
Dont have a reliant so yeah that takes time.
The admiral of my alliance said that he used to get Epic Gas and Ore until the Battle Pass that just expired and he asked Scopely about it and they said the removal was intended
I don't know what he's talking about. There was no epic gas or ore in there. Choice Tokens only had Epic crystal, which is why interceptors have always been easiest to max
Maybe that is how he got them. But it still means there is not enough epic mats for epic ships, which was my original point.
I got mine from the outpost refinery, the building is always generating material to convert into mats, I still use it for rare 6* gas
For me that only gives Uncommon mats not Epic
Your point isn't valid to me, I built an maxed every G5 rare and epic, and all three faction miners. So telling me there's not enough epic gas to do it isn't true. It just takes a while.
So @raw fiber
With all the great changes for events, BP, choice rewards, officer depot, the wonderful new ship, more duo waves,...
Will scopely introduce a login currency? as this is the only thing not nerfed - yet
Then you just need to ops up and it will provide epic too.
I am finding it hard to get the mats for much lower rarity ships than Epics so it is valid in the context of my play
agreed. it takes scrapping, loyalty chests, and time. i got to say though, i didnāt finish the deridex because i prioritized two cubes and battleship parts were missing š
My account is nowhere a stage where that would be wise
So you're not able to build up lower rarity ships, but your plan is to skip the epics and go straight to G6? That's not a good idea. The G5 epics are your main ships for doing your daily tasks in early G6. Relying entirely on a Relativity is going to have plenty of things that will be difficult to complete.
sigma repair speed ups alone will prevent any sort of advancement.
If Canada joins the EU, will us Canadians have our accounts relocated to EU Servers?
No. Like I said earlier, I currently have no plan at all to go to G6. At least not at all this year.
I'm not saying to ops up before you're ready. I'm saying when you need those epic G5 mats for the G5 Epics, you'll likely have access in that refiney. I know i did at 60.
Okay thanks for the clarification
I play very slow, which is why I built and maxed every G5 ship. I don't Ops up until I'm the highest power on my server for whatever my current Ops level is. Other people have zoomed right past me and then ask why my ship has 10-15% more power than theirs at the same tiers.
I don't worry about being most powerful, but like you I take my time. In fact if anything I am only planning on slowing down. Might as well since I am not planning on G6 this year unless they do a lot to change G6's issues.
idk, I spent more than 3 months at Ops 60, finishing all my G5 ships, and ops locking my Relativity and GS-31, and trying to get as many artifacts completed before going to G6, but in hindsight I kind of wish I'd gone up sooner. G6 is more challenging, but I find it a lot more engaging. and now that all the new content is only for 61+, I wouldn't want to be behind on all the new content. But that's just me.
I tried going from 53 to 55 quickly to get the new content. BUt that was when they raised it to 61. The previous raises of the min level were also right before I got to the previous minimum. So, I have given up on ever seeing new content. Unless I super rush by the time I go to 61, it will be higher than 61 even if I don't go as slow as I intend to ATM
For example, when DTI came out, I was just below the ops level where I could build the building during the arc, and my alliance-mates who were able to build it when it came out, got to do the events for it, and were able to build it a lot faster than I was able to, because by the time I built it events weren't rewarding any DTI related rewards, so I had to build it up the slow way. But yeah, sounds like you're dealing with the same thing I dealt with back then, finding the balance of not ops'ing up too fast, but trying to get yourself more current as soon as you're able to
and you wouldn't be able to do the new content anyway dont rush, there's lots of old one to finish first
Exactly my thoughts. I have a lot of ships that need catching up on anyway. Especially my specialist ships, which are nearly all weak for my level.
AND this new arc sucks. I mean its good to get a start on the Academy whenever you're able, but the sourcing for the materials is annoying. Not to mention the Duo waves are way too difficult for most G6 players without a way scaled up building, and the duo waves are the only way to get the new officers. And there's still a 26% chance of pulling an L and getting officer XP instead of new officers shards. I hate this arc.
I don't even like the existing Wave types, so I can only imagine I will have more issues with Duo Waves.
Ive had 2 pull's both L's so far
I don't mind the solo waves when they work, but the lag has made them basically unplayable, so they made an arc with extremely difficult hostiles and WAY too many of them. And made the credits to start them hard to source. Everything about it sucks.
That's absolutely INFURIATING!
Can't believe I'm writing this now, normally I have to moan after an update but this time you did something for more quality, chapeau š THX for the possibility to claim things in Faction Store more easier now!!!
can we pass on to the team that mastery shouldn't take a month to max and should be able to max D1? it should take exactly 5k of the cube thingy and not 10k+. I've mentioned this the last time a mastery was added. Mastery archives are there to allow us to ignore loops and focus on the more immediate loops instead of having to grind it for another month before mastering the archive
I've only been playing a little over 4 years, the game has been going on about 7ish? Players have wanted bulk faction refines probably for the entire time and when you finally decide to give it up scopely can't help but add a measure of control to it. Again failing to realize that this needless requirement is just another measure of disrespect towards the players.
Well considering they're requiring you to be G7 first anyway, I don't think they care
way longer than 7 years š
whats the added measure of control? (Also: Go Pats!)
question. if I can't even refine the academy stuff. how on earth am I gonna get the ship? hellloooo
you buy the ship to do the loop so you can get the ship
WELL DONE Scopely for the QoL stuff added. About time š
Lets hope it all works. Us Beta Testers will soon let you know š
Finally š
š
Hi!
I really like this upgrade.
Thank you.
Bulk faction store claim is something we finally get thanks Scopley
Nice lack of forethought. Even harder to choose the ship now because you can't hit the button under the overlap.
You said Overlap?
Besides, what people really wanted was a favorite option instead of a search.
<@&509690795536941056>
To have a favorite you need the search so it's a step in the right direction š
So even at 71 when you can archive the NX01 you'd still need to hunt the Blue Opportunity Chips, so there's no difference?
It's really not. It's just more excess.
once upon a time, compensation actually meant something, when field rations actually were worthwhile. Keep on breaking the game scopely, and keep on losing players wtg
It's a trap most likely too...
And starting maintenance an hour early only to extend it by an hour is some crazy work
But it's so helpful to have more cargo space for a grind you don't need to do anymore?!
Unless you want the rare opportunity chips... Which aren't in the archive anyway.
<@&509690795536941056> get better designers
we are on it!
the FOMO is strong
I'd call these unlock charges a joke, but jokes are funny. You really don't care a single iota about your players.
Except those all come in Chests š
and what exactly is so 'special' about this non-offer?
How could quality checks have missed that? š
Kwalaeti Schecks? Schecks i know...
First, you need to have quality checks occurring
Most of the loot comes in chests to be fair, even with the archive boosts cargo will fill up in about two 62 hostiles instead of one.
Why do I need to be ops 71 to finish this
Independent Archive ship mastery should 100% be the same ops level as when the ship can be maxed. Anything higher is just .... well.... I cant say anything nice there.
Make mastery same ops level as ship max tier.
same reason every new arc requires a new ship purchase to defeat it - players aren't allowed to have anything for free
You can change that right away. The "Assign Ship" button should be there. For years, people have automatically pressed that button, and now a window opens. It's incredibly annoying.
Officer search functionality should arrive with patch 91.1. Well, it is already available with patch 91.
Can you please let the website get an update for this?
<@&509690795536941056> <@&509691205798592532>
To be fair ton this specific suggestion, some ships have three activated abilities
filter ships - an excellent addition - well done Scopley
wait wheres is this info (im a bit lost)
Officer Menu (Arriving with The Mid-Month 91.1 Patch)
https://startrekfleetcommand.com/news/update-91-and-91-1-progression-changes/
Commanders, With this update, weāre making several changes to G3 progression focused on improving clarity, long-term progression pacing, and daily gameplay engagement. These updates include the introduction of the new Ascension Research Tree, new Elite Federation, Klingon, and Romulan hostiles, and increased progression rates for select ships ...
Nice that the log in streak is backdated though.
The issue with clicking on FC skills has been raised.
Work around: Come back to the previous screen and then reopen the skill tree again, the last selected skill will show upā¦.
No, this really isnāt a viable workaroundā¦. Itās a headache.
The new story arc with its rewards is a joke. New waves, okay, not my thing. And on top of that, the regular shooting for training tokens. Redeem 6,000 all at once? Are you out of your minds? And what about all the other tasks, the dailies? Am I supposed to play 12 hours a day?
You guys really arenāt in your right minds anymore, are you?
Why donāt you try playing your game as a normal player? Do you actually enjoy this?
makes it easier not to come back after a break
<@&509690795536941056> So.... are the normal spend events also moved to match this? If not š©
<@&509690795536941056> Not to be negative all the time. Thanks for all the QoL additions this month!!!! Keep it up! š„°
It's happening here too. Don't program it to go where something else was before. Can this search be turned off? It's incredibly annoying. š¤Ø
athena system layout - why the sudden change from the new skull systems being offshoots to them being on main path?
venari ral lack the same skull symbol present on the system to indicate they are deadly - inconsistent use of symbols
Exactly this. If a player misses a day because they're on holiday or sick or spending time with family, or, god forbid, playing a different game for a break- then they come back on and see "oh sorry, you didn't log on for ONE DAY, so we've taken all the claim all features away from you"... yeah that'll make them want to pick the game up again, sure.
I can't believe they FINALLY added a feature that players have requested for a long time, which could have been cause for great celebration, but they've ransomed it behind an abusive fomo strategy.
What is this garbage??? Floating boxes now? Cāmon Scopely, you can do so much better than this.
Itās because they are forcing ops progression past the previously comfortable climes of late G4 and G5 and preying on FOMO
<@&509690795536941056> i know the blog post said took care consideration about the NX-01 archive and how it supposedly helps active growth in G6 and such and that is why the Archive Mastery is set at ops 71. But the logic fails when the hostiles for the NX-01 stop at lvl 61.
If the hostile cap for a ship stops at a certain level, that is when it needs to be archived. Not 10 levels later. Not to mention the cost of the archive...
Whereās the STELLA?!
Yep, that too. So many ships that need archiving.
Or the Mantis.. itās ops locked in the archive at 60.
Like seriously, don't add new ships without adding at least 1 to the archives, and at an appropriate level.
While we are on the IA nonsense⦠Franklin being stuck at 8/9 from when we tiered it up and bought the half pack of prints for the A. Like⦠come on.
Ops 71????? Really?
That should be a lot lower.
You suck.
You really don't understand mastery.
Billy from Accounting do this one?
I am not confused as to why. I vehemently disagree with the logic.
I've heard that the Stella will become available in the IA once you hit Ops80 š
I also disagree with the logic.
Aside from the 7 day login thing I'd just like to throw out a thank you into this void of complaints. Faction store bulk and officer/ship search are excellent additions. š
well to be fair it shouldn't take 64.5 days more after today to even get the mats to finish archiving a ship thats been maxed for as long as nx-01 has been either
Bulk Refine in the Faction Store š š š š ---- NX01 needing to be 71 to mastery in IA is š . The IA building is losing a lot of its utility with these unneccesarily high levels to achieve mastery. The ship is easily maxed in G5, so why cant we have mastery at 60? I heard the explanation about the sigma rewards increasing until 70, but that is a pretty lame excuse.
Thank you, thank you for all of these bulk claims! Less clicking means more time to play!
Devs: "Our players are already frustrated and fed up, they are going to hate this. We need to archive some of these ships earlier. This ship's been in the game for years, they want to archive it. Please don't make more players leave the game"
Billy from accounting: "lol money go brrrrrrrrrr"
my left mouse button thanks you for the bulk faction claims
I know you guys get a lot of negative feedback, but hereās some positive. I really appreciate the quality of life update where we can sort by officer. Thatās going to be really helpful setting up crews.
on a side note of this is what we got in an actual update can't wait to see what they sneak in on those every week maintenance they do every week of the month roflmao.
There are some good QoL updates here. Bulk Faction Refine, the new crew & ship searches are great. But you all are hobbling the IA building to try to push ops. Being able to push for mastery of the NX01 though is not going to make anyone go to G7, its just going to frustrate your G5 & G6 players who should be able to have it completed in the IA already. What is going to be the justification for having the Defiant need an IA building of 72 to master?
of all the choices ever made, requiring OPS 71 for an nx01 archive is one of the choice-est choices
It's so dumb, its unfathomable. NX-O1 for mastery at G7 is the stupidist thing I have ever heard. Archives are supposed to close loops so we can focus on others. This is not it.
You know a decision is dumb if youāre already including an explanation/apology in the patch notes before it even goes live.
Really? Level 71 archives for a NX mastery? Are you serious?
Loving the new qol updates! The bulk pulls on chests and search function for ships, officers and even items is great š
New search functionalities are nice and was particularly badly needed for inventory. Only complaint Iād have is the Search officers by name in the Officers page isnāt all that helpful. Better ability filtering and an easier way to see who you can spend xp on would be much more beneficial. I know those both exist already but only in a limited way.
But thanks for the bulk faction refines!
I would be miffed, if they made it even ops 61 and forced into G6, but could understand since there are some Xindi G6 areas; fine. But G7, there is just 0 reason lol.
<@&509690795536941056> Given how things have been going lately I had the lowest expectations for this arc and Iām already disappointed, good work. This is a prime example why. You finally give us the NX 01 in the independent archives, and for the briefest of moments i think, they are doing something nice for us. Until i see you need ops 71 to complete it. ARE YOU KIDDING ME. Iāve had the ship maxed out since I donāt know when. I should be able to master it. There is absolutely nothing in the archive bundle that ops 71 is required for. This is just a poorly disguised attempt to get people to move to G7 before they are ready so you can sell more packs. It would be so easy to let those of us who maxed the ship to complete the archive for it, and quite frankly it would have been a nice gesture, but NOPE. You had to turn it into a cash grab. This is exactly why THE GAME IS DYING
Kir'shara is completely broken and just randomly drops targets
I appreciate the addition of the NX-01 to the independent archive, however, the cost to get it done is time consuming because of the slow drip of parts for it. I started with 5300 parts and only got 3 levels. At a gain of 400 shards per day it's going to take over 60 days to complete it. It will take longer for folks without the max.
This is the most costly one yet. It shouldn't take that many parts.
I don't see how this is improving progression for most players. I only use my NX-01 once a week at the moment.
It's a slap in the face for me.
Lower it's cost and give me credit for what I already spent on the difference and ops level to complete it
"We understand that this decision may generate disagreement within the community. Feedback regarding the NX-01 Mastery being locked at Operations level 71 was seen and raised internally. The decision was made after extensive discussions reviewing the economic impact, the intended role of Independent Archives, and how these factors connect to NX-01 Mastery."
Here's my disagreement. Deleting the app. Scopley has been tone def for to long.
I've been sitting at OPS 60 for a long time because of the decisions the Game Masters have chosen ... I basically don't look at my NX-01 except rare times for basically events or to grind out resources ... It's basically archived for me already ... Worthless junk.
This was another bad decision and shows who should be replaced.
The decision was made to make people spend more money to move up quickly, lol
everywhere the bulk claim button is at the top, but in the faction store it is at the bottom, i dont think that is great design
People aren't going to go from G5 to G7 just to max out the NX-01 archive LOL...they don't understand anything; ever.
I agree, but it's still...stupid...
Compliments for the bulk claim feature!! Nice work guys! But ā¦.. did you really have to sock us with another 200 day free to play path for the Athena? A 100 day / 50 day path would be more reasonable.
First impressions: bulk claims- yes; want more.
Arching nx at 71 when the ship is maxed in low g5- dumb
I meant Scopely THINKS people will, but we just won't. Wasn't disagreeing with anyone here š
And again, an update not tested properly, fixed issues that arent fixed etc.
Seems scampy never learns
wow, I hadn't even noticed it until I saw your comment. just when you think the UI/UX can get any worse, Scopely still manages to surprise you
And another new ship, people wonāt engage with, for content we didnāt want. Another month of floundering sales for Scopley and next month another set of leadership changes!
Edit: glad to see multiple known Issues before the patch is live. You know, Iām sure Scopleyās test team knew about these in the test phase and simply forgot.
There is even less reasons for the Defiant to require ops 71+ for archiving because that loop doesnt offer G6 materials. The NX-01 does, though not nearly as much as to justify ops 71 for archiving.
Thank you thank you, a million times thank you for adding bulk purchase to the faction stores. This will be a game changer for me, literally.
Here is a quick suggestion. MAKE THE GAME FUN for the players. This NX-01 archive mess with dumb.
As long as you don't miss a day logging in. Then it's bye-bye claim all for a full week as punishment.
Every single thing in every update recently is just to increase their KPIs.
"How do we make sure players are logging in every few hours?"
"How do we make them scared to miss a day?"
"How do we get as many players up to G7 as fast as possible so they start buying packs?"
"How do we filter out f2ps and low spenders so they're not taking up valuable server resource?"
Then they watch what players are asking for and implement those things in the most abusive way possible, with those goals in mind, and nothing else.
This has been the way of it, for years.
Ah yeah, I see. Not ideal as it is taking a problematic gameplay issue and pretending it is a feature that can be turned on or off, but I do generally login every day so this helps me a lot.
It's so much worse in the last 12 months though, particularly for low and mid ops players. G7 have finally felt this with the SFA arc, at last, but it's gotten acutely worse.
No disagreement. More than anything else Iāve read today, your statement accurately reflects the state of content releases, and the abusive and absurd nature for those changes.
Yeah so do I, but had a day off not long ago. Now if I do that, I feel like there's a punishment for it. It honestly is sickening.
Kir'Shara Artifact is now Borked! Keeps skipping to the end of the queue 
<@&509690795536941056> "how these factors connect to NX-01 mastery"? Are they playing a different game or something, as the NX is useless for most g6 players and definitely useless for 70+. Perhaps you should hire someone who, like plays stfc?
Will NX get Rare opportunity chips added?
no, you'll still have to kill the hostiles for them
Well, that's not convenient š
Exactly, archiving should be tied to closing the arc, not ops levels. But that doesn't help them hit their KPIs so it'll never happen. Stella will be tied to ops 80 by the time they get around to that one, I bet.
They made mantis ridiculously high ops to max archive and there were not many complaints. So they kept the trend going. The next ship will be ops 80 to max archive.
The new content regarding the Academy is currently impossible. I have looked into this extensively over the past few weeks, but in the current setup, progress is simply not possible.
Cause of the problem
The content is entirely tied to your OPS. If you are OPS 71, you must defeat 71 enemies. This creates a deadlock: if a player cannot complete certain steps, there is no alternative path to proceed. It seems that no account whatsoever was taken of players who get stuck at that point.
Consequences
As a result, they cannot collect the necessary loot to further develop the building.
As long as the building does not level up, the enemies remain too strong to defeat
Collecting resources below your OPS level feels ultra extremely unfair; the cost of converting G6 to G7 is ultra extremely high. As a result, progress stalls completely and you cannot proceed.
End result
This content cannot be executed without external support from the developer. Immediate action must be taken now to change this. Without any support, it will remain impossible.
Takes this serious
strange definition of "archiving" you have there
This NX-01 Mastery is silly. Do they actually play their own game?
Taking a real gameplay problem and twisting it into a āfeatureā is a strange flex. Iām still thankful for the ability, but not a million times. When I first saw it, I was overjoyed but using lag against us to strong arm us into playing every day is off. Other games reward you for consecutive daily logins. Scopleyās take is if you donāt login everyday you get more lag š
Another note. I love that the inventory have a filter. It will make looking for things like tickets easier. But, you guys still have the same problem with dead currencies. This one was April fools day in like 2021 I think.
You can shoot 69/70s and convert to g7 currency. Small drips though
Tier 10/11 G6 epic cannot defend so high. Scopely thinks we all have the legendary
They should just run a Pakled special event or something where you can dump all your old event currency. After it's over it all disappears for good. That way one make fun with it on its way out.
But I doubt they have the vision to be that creative.
Don't miss a day or we will punish you with hundreds of additional clicks for a whole week. Amazing strategy.
"While the NX-01 can be maxed out relatively early in G6"
You (Scopely design team, obviously not you CMs) got that very wrong @tidal notch @raw fiber.
NX-01 can be (and has been for me) fully maxed at ops 51. That's NOT early g6, it's early g5... Currently at ops 61 this whole loop has been very much done for 10 ops already for me. Needing ops 56 could make sense, ops 71 is just plain silly.
athena not in the stfc ship database .. guess we will need to wait for scopely to call ripper to fix it lol
Those developers and their management lost contact with reality.
Would you if you have to code such a crap?
I genuinely can't believe they've added a feature I've wanted for the longest time, and it actually has made me want to uninstall the game permanently.
First, thank you for the new bulk refines.
I think what's been bugging me lately though has crystalized... not just the money grab aspect, which is awful.
I'm forced to ignore parts of the game due to time. I could have 100 presets and the idea I'm going to reconfigure everything every 3hrs to do the new thing is just obscene. I've ignored outposts because it's just so painful to fleet. every new thing requires a whole config, and there are too many things to preset. It's just not worth the work. I'm falling behind on things but, I don't have 6+ hours a day to play, and I can't have my ships locked for 6-8hrs
Mine isn't even working properly. I initially set mine, and now I have claims available, but I had to reset all my bulk claims in the faction store, and they aren't even registering. They all have different times for when it says it will be available. They don't even test this before releasing.
I missed that part of this new "feature." Wow. Scopely has an increasingly long list of bad ideas, and this is near the top. I'm so sick of their abuse. This feels like an abusive relationship. They promise one thing, and if they don't outright lie about it, then they will scornfully deliver what we ask for and make it something we now hate. Way to go, Scopely.
2 months to master all the tracks in the IA building for the nx-01 is ridiculous, if i can master it , means i dont need the loop anymore, why time gate it to finish it and move on?
I remember the first ones took 5 minutes to msster if you had 5000. Now, they punish us with these long IA masteries.
i got 5300 on me as we speak, it takes 28,500 archive data shards to master the nx-01 tracks.....at the rate there going its going to take the next ship they add 6 months to master
if u add a new ship to the IA, that doesnt mean u should make it longer and longer to master for those that have the ship maxed alrdy
<@&509690795536941056> does Scopely actually have players that play this game? Cause the only part of the NX-01 loop that affects G6 players in the sigma rss. But that claim is free once unlock and Scopely has included it in the archive which is good. But this measly amount of sigma isnt enough to justify ops 71 for archiving.
Like I could almost understand if there was refined mats in play, but there isn't. The mats come from the faction store. So its not like archiving the NX-01 at ops 61 (where the hostiles stop and therefore the loop stop) would be speeding up the G6 economy. This decision makes 0 sense.
Wow, I didn't add up how much is needed. I wonder what these people are smoking. This is one of many examples where they give us something we want, but then proceed to punish us for asking for it by making it another grind just to complete. Adding ops 71 is adding insult to injury.
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/707284116252655670/1509536665671041185/image0.jpg?ex=6a198912&is=6a183792&hm=2ab9f7530c4694f544a1e045353dac8f877c80079286b355af1798c5bc9723f5& with player sentiment at an all-time low, Scopely continues to do tone-deaf stuff for no reason. Who is going to spend their way to 71 just to retire a 20 minute per week loop that many people arenāt even bothering with? Why not make this free and easily obtainable (costing less than 5000 currency)?
Great point. I've never seen a more tone deaf company. In an earlier comment, it was determined that it will cost 28,500 to msster. That's horrible. They truly seem to be looking for more ways to screw us so that we quit the game.
Possibly first positive feedback in a year - faction bulk (esp FKR recruit) definitely a time saver.
I especially love the "we realize most of you will be upset because it's a very dumb decision, but we thought about it and decided we didn't care about that and we prefer aggravating you all for no reason".
Or did I misread that? š
Good joke with your patch notes good luck getting people to spend to archive the nx01
Oh, you read that quite right.
Wow my message was removed because I questioned something. No freedom of speech here people. Nothing to see. Donāt say anything negative.
Ok, Continuum Borg solo armada system is messed up. I can only kill up to level 50 3.0 madas, and I need 140K for a single pull, which means I have to run all 14 that I get for free in order to do a single pull, and if I fail I am screwed until next week. I can't even kill a level 44 3.1 mada yet, so I only get to upgrade the Revenant every 2 weeks?
I won't harp on the nx, but giving it a cargo expander when it's going to stop being used weekly is kind of a funny perk. it's like giving my tally 100000000% borg probe drops after I stop using it
A lot of people have missed that part. It was obfuscated in the patch notes and I don't think anyone reads the login notifications/ads for packs. So a lot of people are praising Scopely for adding this feature without realising that if they miss a day, they lose it. Meanwhile Scopely are farming the goodwill.
Officers and research can be your downfall. Not sure what level your ship is, but all three seem to be contributing to you not being able to complete without using all 14 mada credits
More trash from stfc. Fantastic
Syndicate level stopped at lvl 45 on the cost calculation page ages agoā¦.
Thanks. Yeah, I didn't see that. It's just another bad idea on their part in a long list of bad ideas that are added to the aggravation of a broken game.
Pretty sure I max tiered my NX before I hit OPās 50 (or shortly after)ā¦
It seems very odd to restrict when you can Archive it by another 30 OPās levels, especially when that small amount of Sigma Trit and Dilith would be a major boon to G5 players closing on G6 & G6 players
The faction bulk claim that you have to earn just crashed. Well done, as always.
I'm fairly certain the sigma rss were locked behind having the skin and being ops 61+ so it wouldn't be a boon to G5 players.
Come on. We all know new features are rigorously tested before being released. š Mine isn't working properly either.
If we could archive it in the high 50ās it would be š¤£
Not only is it slow as hell when you claim with the spinning wheels of I give up on life, but it crashes too. These clowns outdo themselves.
If you havenāt checked out the public articles on leadership changes at Scopley, google is your friend.
Only in a company so far disconnected from its player base, would leadership changes at the VP level be necessary.
Iām certain good ol Connor is concerned for his position, and he probably should be!
The training hostiles are still too strong. Canāt hit over a 61. Canāt do waves. Thanks.
a near maxed Reliant can swiftly solve them
Working as intended. Buy the ship no one wants, or cares about. Spend the money to level it up, and then you too can complete one duo wave a day !!
It still wouldn't give G5 players the sigma since the skin wouldn't give it anyways.
Billy in Accounting does NOT approve this message!!!!
Speciality ships should be in the battle pass so people can engage with new content during the arc. Upgrading them should be where the pay wall is and could make the mythic path standout from the other pay track.
Alright @everyone today might be the day we start staring at torches again. Yea, I thought it might happen and low and behold the NX-01 gets an insane + arbitrary ops lock to it's mastery. I'm pretty upset about it. HOWEVER, there is definitely some good stuff this month as well (esp for G6+) so let's talk about it.
Topics covered:
- Key chang...
Seriously who even is the NX-01 archive for? There are only a fraction of players 71+ on my server. And I barely need that stuff now, I canāt imagine they need it. Thanks for nothing Scopely.
lol I'm at ops63 and I ain't gonna push to ops71 just for a mastery with way cost is that push to ops71 is still over a year hard push as ftp maybe if it was easier to get mats I could do it sooner but then you talking speedups which while not horribly sourced is still not great but sure let's just ops up 8 lvs to get literally nothing back in return lol scopley is so tone deaf even for my range much less the g5 range to g7
I guess itās kind of fitting that the Starfleet Academy arcs are killing STFC since the show kinda killed the franchise (at least for now)
<@&509690795536941056>, why are the new bulk claims a reward instead of just being a feature? Are we aware of how tone deaf that is in the wake of all the other issues causing players to quit?
<@&509690795536941056>
Small suggested correction for the Patch notes..
āWhile the NX-01 can be maxed out relatively early in G6, it does not fall into the category of a low-impact or redundant loop within that level range. Even in late G6, the NX-01 continues to provide meaningful value through materials, ship partsā
Pretty sure my NX was T12 while I was in the G5 range (OPs 51 for Max tier) including nearly all the ExBorg Research and Favors.
(Corrected text, OPās 51 for Max Tier, thought I maxed mine in G4 but was mistaken)
Itās technically incorrect (and also completely undermines the core justification of why OPās 71+ for it to be Archived.
Many established G5 & G6 players with proper research and crewing only kill Xindiās weekly for the Wednesday SMSās added a while back.
Really outside of the Armada chest pulls I can become an almost completely irrelevant loop for established players (who the archives are targeting)
No, they are not aware. If Scopley was capable of being in touch with their playerbase, there wouldn't need to be a change at the VP level (which is happening).
Like can you imagine just how bad things need to be for VPs to be fired?
dont forget next ship will prolly be max teired around ops 60 maybe yet they'll have IA mastery set for ops90 prolly
<@&509690795536941056> The messaging and reasoning that the scopley STFC team put out about why the nx-01 requires being in G7 (for a ship that can be maxed at G5) is a great example of why a SVP is getting involved and hopefully implementing changes to the culture.
<@&509690795536941056> I disagree with the ops 71 NX01 mastery requirement. With so much being added to the game all of the time, we need to close out older loops. When the ship is maxed, it should be able to be mastered. Ops 51.
Pretty sure it can be maxed while in G4ā¦
Correction, OPās 51
Where are these new FKR faction hostiles located at? Also, I'm not seeing any of the token turn-in for them in the FKR faction store?
We all know scopely employee only play quality games, so there banned from there own products š
With player sentiment down the drain this is just another point of proof, scopely is oblivious to reality
I max tiered/leveled the NX in like mid/low G5. I have no additional research/favors I can do for this ship. I have no additional leveling I can do for this ship. I am still G5. You're telling me I have to (checks notes) go the whole way to G7 to archive this ship? For why? Do you all understand how your own game even works?
They donāt š¤£
Usually when a senior level executive is changed, lots of things begin rolling down to the subordinates of the previous generation, and never in a good way.
One can only hope the new person is not disillusioned by what the current Scopley team feels is the state of the game.
That's not even counting the fact that I've been asking for over a year for you all to add some sort of accessibility feature for the hazard systems because I have an epilepsy-like disorder with photosensitivity and the backgrounds of the G6 hazard systems whenever I see video of them set off my disorder. I physically cannot look at the G6 systems without being made so violently ill that I am actually bedridden for the rest of the day. I need to be able to turn off the animations for the backgrounds. I'm one of several dozen players on server 89 alone with some variation of a photosensitivity who either struggles to look in these systems or is sitting at 60 because we are refusing to advance into G6 until scopely makes a toggle to turn off the animations for the background animations in hazard systems. If I were to go to G6, I wouldn't ever be able to enter a hazard system until that got fixed. So I'm choosing to not.
Would likely also help with performance on phone, tablets and lower end PCās so feel like it would be a win-win
So they hid the error message the Kirshara was always spamming, but they didn't actually fix the queuing? It still randomly unqueues roughly every-other hostile. Meaning if I queue up 10 hostiles, it only actually manages to destroy 5. It's been busted like this for months now. The thing has never worked right. It's always been busted in one way or another. If they actually ever manage to make it work as you'd expect without constantly breaking, I'll eat my hand.
Correct. Might even save some device battery. This game is such a resource hog. Someone told me "try playing in grayscale" because the transogen systems make me feel weird but only if I look in them for more than a minute or two, but do you have any idea how hard it is to play this game in grayscale? Unless you're zoomed in, it can be hard to tell the difference between a player and NPC ship and who wants to play zoomed all the way in? Not me. It slows me down so much doing that.
Daily claim missing.... nice š
Locking a QOL (bulk claim) ask that has been desired by the community for ages behind a Retention scheme (7 day login streak) has to be one of the worst "have a cookie" and "get punched in the gut" at the same time ideas.
More quits going into the queue... a queue which has a better success rate than the Krishara's š¤£
and am I reading the patchnotes correctly that the duo waves doubled in round length, but (presumably) aren't easily completable (waves 5-8) without the new ship, thus making them more likely to fail after wave 4 and generally be incompletable?
cool.
On the ships new filter:
HATED. It only allows a search for ship name....Why it can't filter by Generation ( G2,3,4, etc... ) ??
So, if i forget the ship name the entire system is useless....and it messed up the ship screen, as seen bellow.
<@&509690795536941056> Search function! And bulk claims in faction store! Woohoo! Much appreciated, those are features weāve been wanting for a while. š„³
tone deaf is
- putting one of the main reasons people stop logging in (20+ minutes of claims) behind a requirement that you log in every day
- basically killing the original intent of the IA by putting ridiculous ops locks on masteries well above the levels the ships can be "mastered"
- putting out jibber as an excuse for the above
but only if you never stop logging in! miss one day and bye bye for 7 days!
This is a joke, right? You can complete the NX-01 before G6...
"We discussed the inevitable backlash and dissatisfaction with making this a level 71 goal, and decided to do it anyway". This does not somehow absolve you of the terrible decision you made, just because you're self-aware enough to know it was a terrible decision š¤¦āāļø
<@&509690795536941056> this shows how out of touch scopley is with player and how they should be treated, why should I have to log in every day to get something that should be a STANDARD FEATURE!
How do you even know they work properly? It takes at least a week for them to even come online š
Edit: Nevermind, didn't realize it was retroactive, and I missed it at the bottom of the faction store screen š¤¦āāļø
Iām not bothered by that, i get they want to encourage daily play. I mean, you canāt complete the battlepass unless you do the event every day. It just doesnāt seem like a big deal imo
<@&509690795536941056> The addition of a Bulk claim feature for the Faction Stores is much needed an appreciated.
I dislike that the feature is only available after a 7 day login streak. Faction claims are one of the most painful things in the game to date. Missing one day of login for various reasons sets you back in a 7-day hole of painful single claims again. While you might want to encourage players to login every day - please rebalance this feature so:
- Missing a login does not reset your streak but disables the feature for one day
- Disable streaks alltogether for a QoL feature that improves your product. Punishing players that way just seems outright wrong
- Enable the feature for every player today so we don't have to live another 7 painful days of claiming each single faction store š¢
You know what discourages daily play? The soul-crushing monotony of faction store claims.
Where do you see what your current "streak" count is?
The battle pass is NOT visuele to buy
I suggest swapping the Search and Assign buttons. Muscle memory has me clicking to search rather than assign. I assume other players would experience the same?
The mass do button in faction store is cool, but being able to match the amount of chest a thing actually has would be better. For example standard recruit tokens. Most have 3 pulls but the mass claim only allows 1
Edit: nm
Update your client it will be there
the streak is retroactive, so if you've already done 7 days in a row it'll show.
Ahh, it's on the bottom of the screen, I missed it. Thank you kindly š
And yes, please fix the claim limits on recruit tokens š
It can be maxed at ops 51. So early G5, not 6. They don't even know their own game. It's no wonder they're so out of touch with the playerbase.
Fleet Commander workaround .. how do to break when it should not be touched this "maintance" or patch thursday
I would like to add that making the NX nastery cost roughly 90 days of archive materials claims means that no matter how fast you introduce new masteries that no one will be able to complete them
which is again, ridiculous
Okay, credit where credit is due, the inventory search is a VERY welcome addition.
Any chance the search could persist as you switch tabs? There are a lot of items that are pretty ambiguous between "MATERIALS" and "OTHER", and having to type to search twice because one searches the wrong tab first is rather grating.
Also, any chance we could get some kind of categorical searches? Something like "*event" to return all event store currency, or "*mission" to return all items that are specific to mission objectives?
Nx01 mastery being tied to ops 71 is stuupid, i'm ops 66 and i have no plan to get to 71 anytime soon. I finished the nx loop at ops 56, i should be able to put it aside and never touch it except for the weekly event. But by ops locking the mastery to 71 itās missing the point of the archive, removing a old loop everyone ops 56 and above finished forever ago to focus on yāall "new content".
No ops lock or remove it, plain and simple.
Oh and free leslie!
you wouldnt even hit the total amount if i stayed off work and ground it out for 2 days, 6pts a hostile at my level and i need 46.8k, what happened to QOL improvements
we (the userbase) want to get paid if we need to test your broken stuff
All IA tracks should be ops locked to the level at which the ship can be maxed out. At the very highest, to the end of the grade in which maxout is possible (so a ship that maxes at ops 51 would never require more than ops 60 for IA mastery... a ship that maxes at 49 would require 50 for mastery, etc.).
Thank you Scopley?? Still no Mac avatar. Still no iPadOS version of the game - even though you somehow got it listed as an āiPad Essentialā game. Trying to play on my iPad is the worst experience. Iāve sent screenshots, and was told youāll fix all of the above soon. When is soon? After everyone abandons the game? Also just like yesterday clicked on a saved destination just to see lines, but zero systems. Good job (NOT)!
Oh and also the nx mastery doesnāt give as much as the current raffinery do.
And i donāt see why it should be tied to ops 71, it only gives ex borg creditsā¦
Why?
And to be honest it gives a pitiful amount of sigma rss. It doesnāt make sense, apart of attempting to push g6 players towards g7. I can tell you one thing, we (all f2p g6 players) have no interest in g7.
We know how hard and ridiculous stuff are in g7. G6 itself is already ridiculous enough
At ops 62i can reach the 70s. Still need 720 kills
Nice!!! So you nerf the emergency rations
No speed ups No Lat
WHAT A JOKE
Weren't rare G4 ship parts supposed to be in refinery after hitting ops43?
All of these changes seem like they are designed to kill the game. Anything that was good they change, and not for the better. The emergency rations officer depot tokens choice rewards for battle pass alliance tournaments etcā¦
Now comp chests are even more trash and a joke. Yāall at scopley seems to want us to stay but in the back you canāt stop to take away whatever we used to get for free
The biggest value of those field rations used to be the lat. especially for f2p players, since you screw up all the time on everything you touch, it used to be a reliable source of lat lmfao
No one should pay to support this trash
why is there no bulk refine for artifacts/territory/recruit??
did you want the game breaking even more than it is ?
Hey scopley - Why waste my time with adding the NX-01 to the archive. One more dumb choice. Yes, I want to waste time clicking the NX-01 over and over everyday until I hit 71, NOT. You have no care about the time you expect us to spend on this game. Its a GAME, NOT A JOB!
its better than putting daily chests on bulk refine.
you don't click it over and over every day if it is not mastered LOL
They should be archived at the end of the loop, in the case of the NX-01, that ops 61 where the hostiles stop.
scopely wants us all 71!
That should be easy, since they created a loop where you canāt effectively kill the hostiles without the building, but you canāt upgrade the building without killing the hostiles, then they want us to buy a ship to fix it, but i guarantee you would need to buy at least 2 part packs to make the ship useful.
Everything else was archived at the end of the loop, but they made a exception for nx for absolutely no reason
They can want in one hand and š© in the other and we all know one will fill up faster than the other. lol
Why are tabs territory and artifacts missing for bulk gifts options? <@&509690795536941056>
I have ops 70 people in my alliance, and even them are struggling with the academy, calling it waste of time
Both are what we can call « moderate spenders » and both have no interest in going g7 anytime soon
Scopley is writing in direct the book of how to kill a game fast
The addition of Bulk Claim and a search button are worthy of admiration, but why is it necessary to grind so much on Training Merits?
This is madness. 24K for one refinement is insane. Stop bullying us!
RIP Kir'Shara
Doesn't get any better at 71. With a T5 Vengeance I'm limited to hitting 69s.
But they link it to log in every day or you lose it for a week!
The fewer players we remain and try to hold the game, the more lax the attitude towards us becomes.
Don't even think about hitting your own level
I see the events are focused around the new ship. I guess I wont be playing today cause Iām not buying it
on Android I can no longer click on the fleet commander skills, to swap between skills for example, anyone else with this issue?
Ops 71 to complete the archive, you got to be joking right? I had that maxed a looong time ago
That's ridiculous. NO ONE goes all the way to 61 before being able to grind the level 62 (not 61) Xindi Aquatics in their sleep.
Finally a quality of life improvement in the game with the officer search.
Also, I don't know what you all did to "fix" the Kir'Shara, but now it's dropping every other hostile from the queue. Literally half of the targeted hostiles. I'm watching it happen in real time, with 100% consistency.
I just watched the same, it's literally just dumping them out of the queue while en route
the mantis and meridian aren't completable at the end of their respective loops either, which is also dumb
<@&509690795536941056> @finite mural Please start investigating BP rewards. Mat rewards missing rss and rss rewards missing mat.
That's ridiculous. The good stuff, the stuff you actually need, is plentiful in the two lower battle passes. Take day 1, for example. A ridiculous 4K tokens for building upgrades is available in the lower passes š¤Ø
Or day 3 only 3,4K Credite š
This UI for searching is hideous. š
@tidal notch Just wanted to give you a heads up, super easy misunderstanding that can be fixed. NX-01 can actually be maxed at ops 51 (early g5)! š So you can go ahead and please let the team know they can knock 10 levels off the requirement to archive it. And make it ops 61, not 71. Thanks! š
But that's still the end of the loop. Whether you can get there beforehand or not is irrelevant.
Seriously a ship parts battlepass with no parts in free track, then i definitivly not gonna buy elite track
Considering the purpose of the IA, it very much isn't. The NX-01 is a repetitive button-click-fest for a long time well before 61.
But the end of the desgined loop is still 61. That is where the archive should be set. I also think that when a new ship is added to the game, it's archive is already there as well. Let us use the archive as we progress.
The lag fixed you not still, I see.
First you take away the $60 Weekly Offers chests for parts, now you take away all the mats in Battle Pass Elite. The old way was a lot better, could get what I needed. So if I'm going nowhere fast, so are you. Don't expect any purchases until I get value for my buck
By what logic or metric does the loop "end" at 61? Other than the level of hostiles?
Yes, the level of the hostiles. That is generally how Scopely designs loops.
That's meaningless. If you want to use that as the logic for determining the IA requirements, there has to be logic behind the definition of a "loop".
It's called game design.
Can we stop with this 200 day ship sourcing model? It wouldnāt be so bad if the second bp cost was the same as the first, itās the exponential growth in cost that makes it asinine
*arbitrary game design š
So in other words, you have no logical argument for why the IA should use level 61 as the mastery requirement.
It's still how it's designed. And so why archive the loop before the designed end?
<@&509690795536941056> Do you remember when you said the Officer Depot Token store was supposed to replace the transporter patterns ? Now, it's replaced by a badly designed gacha mecanic.
That's genuinely bad, you really should revert it.
Because the "designed" end is not the same as the functional end.
But functional end is a constantly moving target due to power creep, but designed end is static
Yep everything of value is now in the bought BP. F2P literally have nothing in there now of value. Getting to the point where its questionable to even play this game if you dont intend to spend. I knew the patch notes were too good to be true.
Hell, look at the Meridian. It isn't even optimal to use the ship itself for its intended purpose all the way until the required ops level for mastery.
with the warmest regards, the BP has become an absolute joke, even the paid tracks
Ain't gonna be no one left playing in 200 days
While the NX-01 loop is neither particularily difficult nor specifcally annoying (or rewarding) I appreciate that you retire the loop for ops 71+. However, I had a full bank for currency and it only buys 3 steps. Why do you replaye one "grind" with another "grind" when the goal you want to achieve is to stop the "grind".
āBuy the ship or gt*oā
The only direction the functional end will ever move due to power creep is down š¤¦āāļø So the original functional end should be the upper bound.
Well duh have you not been playing every single arc up until now? You should know if you want to play the new content you better get swiping that card xD
Which the original functional end is the game desgined end. I'm glad we agree.
lol it's going to take 60 more days to get the NX-01 Mastery
<@&509690795536941056> Free Bpass has no Rare 6* gas on #16
14 Have Rare Ore and 18 has Rare Cry
Thatās new. You used to be able to grind new loops a little ftp. Of course, those who buy it SHOULD have a huge advantage. But it should be pay-to-win, not pay-to-play.
Lol, nice try putting words in my mouth.
The functional end of any loop in this game is never guaranteed to be the "intended" end level. Some loops don't even get finished (see: the Mantis)š
And you know, regardless of how pedantic you want to be about it, the "designed" loop doesn't actually matter. What matters is that the point of the IA was to remove repetitive actions from the game to improve QoL. The point at which that happens is frequently before the "intended" level, by your definition.
wow, looks like yet again a lot of things messed(polite) up yet again
<@&509690795536941056> new bulk claim good, walling it behind 7days of log-ins is holding a phaser to our heads no? really? surely a 5 day unlock like the vger milestones? so at least ppl that work (and therefore can pay) have a small safety net?
you know what work is right? that thing you do if you want money without going into debt?
solution:
miss a day, lose bulk, but only requires 1 day of log in to unlock next day of log in, therefore continuous log in has same benefits as current design, and missing a day only means losing 1 day of bulk skips
My help button is STILL broken
Scopely forgot blue g6 gas in the battle pass
Only "usual" stuff in the free-2-play track? No Parts for the building or other special stuff?
Please tell me they did NOT remove Officer tier up command badges from the final reward for any of the reward tracks. They better be comming out with a new way or thats just a really cruel move to the fan base this month. Those things have one of the worst drips in the game wtff
This game doesn't have a fan base. It has a victim base.
Free BP is a joke now. No ship parts, no special currencies, nothing. Just mats, resources, ship parts and officer tokens here and there.

<@&509690795536941056> Athena launch special is unavailable on Android 9:42am pst
Second month in a row
Academy is a fitting final Arc for the game
Seems again scopely introduced bug ridden new content that also bugs up old content. The lack of any competence is mindboggeling
Weren't they supposed to change it to those officer laurel things? Or does that only count for the new officers 𤣠It's scopely so It could be both š¤£
my god can't you just split academy drone and venari systems... why are there drones where you do athena stuff...
THANK YOU been waiting for ever for a update to the command badge system
Exactly. There is no incentive at all to waste my time on the bp
They are available in the faction stores individually for minor commendations or one of each in the loyalty packs 6+ for faction credits.
It's still not guaranteed that you'll get one of each kind a month like before
Sweet nerf on these hostiles. Really helpful to g6 players to be able to kill one hostile punching down 6 levels.
i wonder how many more players will be quiting with this one?
Yeah. I'm still waiting for scopely to actually do that. Got to laugh at how they said it will be the new currency to promote officers. Yet haven't bothered with it
"Improved" Officer Depot tokens are a great hit
Don't go for the Venari Ral
Like at this point they are literally treating us as a joke like destiny 2 did to its community
I want to pitch them the idea of...Sigma Kir'Shara...
and look again you can go to the store to purchase 2 battle passes.. we know they aren't paying their tech guys. so what are they doing with the money they make from this game? seems they are broke and need more. or just greedy and want all they can get.
Why would i buy anything from scopely store? All is hugely overpriced
And no blue Gas š¤£š
Thank you for adding bulk claims to the faction store š
I was about to put something here. The I thought of the several last years giving feedback and I said "why even bother..."
After all the criticism, I have to give you some praise: the filter settings in the inventory are great.
have to agree that i like. i am really shocked that it wasn't a pay to use tho..
Is this done on purpose? No blue gas in the battlepass even elite and mythic?
The fact that "improvements" feel punitive makes me want to quit playing. The bulk claim change is ridiculous. You create a game that has real diminishing returns if people aren't in your target audience. This update feels either incredibly poorly planned or completely out of touch.
<@&509690795536941056> you guys know we have jobs? They are a š©ton of events and grinds today! You guys just donāt listen.
sorry, but you are just paper... and try different crews too... try some shield regen see how it does
Just wait till you dont login for a day, all will be gone
When it's good it needs saying.
The search in the officerbar for ships is a welcome addition.
Bulk claims. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! š
first: love that we have a search box for officers here.
second: I hate the placement. can we have the "confirm" button back to its original place near the dropdown, and the search box on the right side?
reason: I believe most ppl are used to clicking/tapping that are when quickly changing ships and not changing crew and since the added search box I have clicked inside it EVERY SINGLE TIME for no need
check this out⦠first i couldnāt upgrade any of the CC officers skill trees, cleared cache, and now all of the slots dumped⦠bad enough they arenāt fixing anything, itās worse that theyāre breaking more
oh, did i mention that i canāt place any of my CC officers in any of the slots𤣠talk about screwing my ability to grind hostiles let alone fight
The bulk claim concept is stupid for multiple reasons. Particularly, it discourages the more casual players to come back and play because they just get punished for having a life outside of this mess. The other more real issue is that we have seen multiple events where the game servers were offline for hours of unscheduled maintenance. People shouldn't be punished for not being able to play the game during a failure of the developers to maintain server stability. You want to do a 7 day claim unlocking a new QOL improvement great, taking away something that was already afforded to people is petty and bad practice.
This is really stupid, 2 unlocks for the nre ship but the special one give WAY more.. you really need to have only the special show in instances like this.. then when special is no longer available you put the normal.. Doing something like this is just wrong, and for people who bought the normal SHOULD get a chest with everything they didnt get by not getting the special
PS it š© like this that cause people to not spend money and quit
At least you have access to the spcial unlock pack, mobile users dont even have access to it
This isnt me (im still low ops), i got this info from an alliance member then i put it in a nice format like this (along with showing the diff).. who told an alliance member about it when they bought the normal.. and they are well pretty furious (cant say the word that he actualy is since it blocked) about it
I love this company so much.
Scopes: We fixed the Kirshara š¤
Literally any player five seconds later: ....um....
Scopes: SON OF A-
NO gaz rare g6 in pass ?
they could NOT careless about us players, that is a FACT!!
being worked on
ok is bug
Another dumpsterfire release xD
Why are materials and resources now separated in the battlepass? Also really nice for a OPS71 to get 3,5m sigma steal from the battlepassšŖš»
Huge improvement over the choice tokens
PLEASE rework the igs, its been broken for 7 years, theres only so much you can do to it without a complete rebuild. coupled with poor management, its not even a polished s-emoji regardless of how glowing or sparkly you make things.
Ops72 gets 7m, but still 5 months of BP needed for a single building
𤣠The worst.
Cannot update fleet commander!
So now we can't kill any of the new hostile? I mean you had to make them stronger why? At least I could kill the 61 before, now they are worthless. Congrats, I'll be sitting out
OOOOHHH you SO DO NOT want me filling this out š¤£
Daily officer can't be claimed through store
So, the Promo codes that are live now, actually aren't... again.
Simulation not working for me, ops 28
Uhhh codes are broken btw
promo code broken
Tried to redeem code. Ops 54 Simulation2. No good.
Hmmm, poo or clown emoji? Decisions decisions...
lol which comes to no surprise @tidal notch webstore is having a snooze and being laggy boss might wanna get the time to do some work and fix it as key event running and well of course scopley needs packs to be sold so ummm ya.
and if you think giving me 6 Athena shards is gonna make any difference to me, you are sorely mistaken š š
what if it was a full unlock i hear some ppl might be happy with that.. not me mind you but some ppl might be rofl.
This is getting real aggravating. If it's not one bug after another. Get a promo code and all I get is inelagble.
- Thanks for the bulk clicks
- The new hostiles are still a pain and entice people to level camp. If I went to ops 71 I wouldnāt be able to do 1 pull, and it takes me 2 trips to do a single pull with a T12 G6 epic
- Give me back the password option
- The new search box is nice but allow toggling it off. Horrible spot/space used
Yeah the claim code is not working for me as well. Ops 53 Simulation2.
Why is this the busiest room on most discords?
I can tell you but we all know why roflmao
Claimed fc tree upgrade and received no points for it on the event.
Why donāt you just scrap the idea of redeeming codes and just gift the players based on their levels anyways just reducing the bugginess slightly
So the new easier hostiles, will only take me 10 tokens per pull. So rough calculations mean this game will be dead before i get the ship, as i can't afford the building and the ship, but i can't get the ship without the building...tell the devs to at least attempt to fix this nonsense at the lower end please
I will not be buying anything from the store or collecting mission keys, if I have to check my email to sign in the website they can keep the stuff
also might want to inform the coders if you wanna call them that what's the point in saying 3x bp event if its 30k in the event and not 90k since thats what would have happened in past just call it unity event
At lvl 70 i need 95k training merits⦠single run with rare g6ā¦. 4kā¦.. lower it al least to 50kā¦. Jump between lvl 69 and 70 is way to high
Would love to be a fly on the wall when the SVP meets with the product team running this clown show
They wised up and made it multiple choice
plz move the faction page bulk claim button from the BOTTOM of the page to the TOP of the page š
let me guess:
on a scale of 1 to 5 how would you rate the game (1 being great to 5 being great):
answer = 0 š
they would have, but now you used it, you invalidated the warrantee š¤£
No RSS in the early BP milestones? Seriously?
New code not working for me.
make sure no spaces
I did
My sister could collect hers. I got this.
<@&509690795536941056>
Initial thoughts.
The Academy loop is now much better with the hostile adjustments and the issue where upper G6 could not engage is now resolved.
The faction store claim all feature, a huge improvement.
While I see what you guys are trying to do with the 7 day login reward, I don't think QOL features should be it. QOL features like this should be unconditionally available to the playerbase.
Overall, a huge improvement so far - I'm told there are a few bugs (i've not found them yet), but this is alot better than last months release for sure.
It's case sensitive
I tried earlier with s and S and nothing, tried just a second ago with S and it worked
I tried it first letter Capital the rest lower and number 1 and it failed. My sister did the same thing and got it. I tried all caps, nothing.
95k is cute. Wait until you go ops71 and need 216k š«
Good to fix the blog that NX can be maxed early G5, but since the justification for requiring 71 to archive it was based on maxing and usability in G6 - which was flawed - now you need to take the next step of fixing the archive requirement to 61 or lower š
Sorry if im late to the party but its rubbish that I've got a fully maxed nx-01 and had the maximum capacity of archive shards and ive only got it to archive lvl 3 before running out
Inventory search ā¤ļø
A lot of the points last arc were 10k each
that's my point they were 10k everyday last arc so 3x event gave 30k but this arc the event is 30k and a 3x modifer in the title which should by their own logic mean 90k not 30k
They could move it to Albuquerque and I'd go find it ... Bulk Claim is the first good feature in months. š
Ohhhhh. I didn't look at the SS.. makes sense now.. sorrrrrrry lol
a 10% parts reduction for the NX is laughable. only the merridian had this. Everything else is at least 30 to 100%.
And is very easy to max a NX by OPs 51 without the reduction, or pulling parts from alternate sources
Definitely not improved for me. T16.5 Krencha can't kill a 71... I need 216k of the G6 stuff. This content is still DOA
<@&509690795536941056> @tidal notch @raw fiber Why are so many events for G5 still not giving G5 mats only G4 and G3??? And please don't say it is as intended because the last few months have been terrible for that...
Don't worry, neither can a T5 Vengeance
mine can
@tidal notch so since it's almost 3hrs after event reset and still can't claim mission keys (even though others in alliance has) in webstore maybe I can get a ping for when webstore isn't laggy and working properly don't worry I'm online everyday so I'll wait for a response.
What OPās lvl are you? Iām seeing G5 mats in the rewards (OPās 56) just underwhelming numbers
worst free battlepass ever, you def want everybody walking away from this game, how pathetic you are becoming
Type it in all capitals
R.I.P. depot tokens. You were one of the best additions to the game in years. You are already missed.
Wow a whole choice of 3 epic officers.....
My t16 scimitar could kill 50+ 72's per trip. T5 janeway, t5 seska, t5 sudar on bridge. Below: [T5 officers( torres, neelix, hugh, pic hugh, wok joc) t3/4 WoK caroll
This is a feedback channel, not Q&A or discussion. They have my feedback. Being āpaperā shouldnāt mean having the (second) best ship at maximum tier/level and PvP techs. Yeah, my research needs work, yeah, I could put better techs on, but I shouldnāt have to have the absolute META to participate at a bare minimum level.
I am OPs 57 and there have been a bunch of SMS and SLB that do not include G5 materials yet the brackets are G5 specific... I raised the question about Diplomatic Climb last month as just one of some and was told it was as intended? How is not give G5 mats to G5 players intended??
Iāll have to look more closely later, sounds like some specific events and not everyone one, but goes back to the general low level of QA we are seeing in the last few (dozen) Arcs
https://tenor.com/view/thanks-thank-you-gracias-gif-6832668393635686199
As we have not been sparing with our critics over the last few weeks, think it is time to say thanks for making bulk claims in faction stores and gifts come true!
Must be some kind of voodoo then because I have every research I can possible do done
Faction Hunt was another one that did not have any G5 rewards to G5 players...
Iāll have to turn back on seeing the claims and look more closely at the rewards this arc, thanks for the info
Please put player choice back into the game. Choice tokens and officer acquisition was a massive QoL improvement. Taking it away is worse than it never existing. We now know what we are missing.
This is feedback for the discord... You can block messages you don't want here, I get that, but when you type out a long peice of feedback, with only minimal sarcasm, it is probably better to set it up to tell you what is being blocked and why rather than just having me waste 5-10 minutes on a message to provide feedback and have it just disappear.
Scopely log-in, I do not want to have to respond to a confirmation email code when logging in instead of enerting a password. Does this mean that I and others like me should stop playing Scopely games?
Come on Scopely get your act together and fix the game the bug report is blowing up. This needs to stop. Stop the roll outs and all the changes and focus on fixing the game and not your portfolio
@rigid vapor fix the game
<@&509690795536941056>
I have a few comments about the latest release. The perspective of an Ops 69 player.
I'll start with the good things first:
- Bulk Claim for Faction Store & Gift Section Tab:
- Much appreciated. We've been asking for it for a very long time, and finally it's here. Thanks for that.
From what I can tell, it is working flawlessly, which comes as a welcome surprise. - However, I noticed that the Artifacts Tab didn't have a bulk claiming option. Please fix this.
- Suggestion for further improvement of the feature:
Add a small info panel / an overview in each bulk section that lists the resources that are missing for the next claim. - I saw that the feature is only available if you keep your log-in streak. I think it's a really bad idea and should be removed. Quality of Life should not be a reward for active play. I understand that you want your players to log in every day, but there are a lot of other ways to encourage that. This kind of punishment is unhealthy.
- Search filters in inventory, officers, and ships tab
- Very useful for the inventory and improves QoL. Thanks for finally adding that feature.
- However, the search bar is misplaced in the ships tab and should be moved somewhere else on the screen.
- There is an issue with overlaying text in the officers tab. Please also fix that.
- Minor criticism: The color is a bit too light, it would be nice to have a darker theme.
while i love the QoL updates, scoring lag is horrible and chat lag is out of control. i only see my own messages for the last three hours in both ac and gc! <@&509690795536941056>
Now to (some of) the bad things about this release:
- NX01 Archive:
- Adding more archives for old loops is definitely the right step and is long overdue.
- HOWEVER: Locking the mastery at Ops 71 is a really bad idea. I appreciate the effort of explaining the reasoning behind this decision, obviously you anticipated that this would be badly received by the community, but I cannot relate to the reasons given in the blog post. The loop can be completed in early G5 and is of little value for G6+ players. The required level for mastery should be somewhere in the G5 range as well. It was said that earlier archives worked against the original intent ā clearly something is off with that intent, because delaying the mastery by two ops grades is not a QoL improvement. Keeping that loop active for so long is not justifiable when more loops are being added to the game than are being archived in the same time window.
- The cost to achieve mastery is way too high. This takes months alone, and I've observed the tendency that it takes more and more time with each archive you add.
- The contents of the mastery bundle should also include rare opportunity tokens. Without those, the loop is still active and the mastery is not a valuable addition.
I urge you to reconsider the Ops-71 barrier, as I am sure that there are other ways to achieve the intent. (That includes the obvious, unmentioned reason that you want to push players to upgrade to G7)
- The new Athena ship
- I did not buy the ship and I am not going to. That means that I will unlock this ship in 7-8 months at earliest, if I haven't quit before. This is completely ridiculous.
- It is completely understandable that your goal is to earn money via in-game purchases. However, locking down the free to play path like that is one of the main reasons why this game is dying. It is why many players have already quit, and why many players like myself consider permanently quitting. What used to be roughly 3 months (100 days) of waiting to access new content without paying is now 200 days and more.
- You said many times that in-game purchases are meant to be an option for players seeking progress faster. The last couple of releases showed that purchases are evolving from being an option to being a requirement.
If that's the case, I will quit.
Kirshara keeps losing lock on queued ships
As a Level 72+ player, I bought the Athena, yet I can only shoot 61 enemiesāearning just one point for each one... I deeply regret making this purchase... The sheer effort involved is simply ridiculousāand to think weāre actually supposed to pay money for this...
I won't be buying anything else... Itās completely pointless...
And Scopely is quietly laughing all the way to the bank. Bet on it.. they don't care... š¤·āāļø
Here is an example of it losing lock
But I won't be the only one... that's exactly why fewer and fewer people are buying this pointless junk.
Only thing I'm paying for is to unlock the BP from time to time but that's all.
And you're right, you're not the only one... Pointless junk, can't say it any better...
So the exchanges are back... but how do you expect me to reach tier 6 without in-app purchases when you didn't listen to me when I said MKII REVENANT and only gave me the MkI exchanges:
What's your ops level?
Edit: I see from your post history that you are ops 45. The rare parts will unlock when youu hit Ops 51. Until then you are stuck at T5.
I tapped the wrong quest in the mission that asked if I wanted to build Athena now... Anyway to reverse that? Or does it really make any difference... Just wondering if I missed out on free Blueprints.
Just be thankful they didnāt sell the Athena in two parts.
How much money did you spend on the building?
Not talking about what people can after spending on the building
didn't spend anything on the building
0.00
I have a maxed out crew and surge research. No way I can kill a 71 with building level 20. A71 kills my ship in round 2
I thought you were talking about 7* ships. My apologies. I can not kill 71+ at all. My veng can eat 69's all day long for the new drones. I can kill some 70s with cerritos until it wears off. I use snw pike, t'pring and nesmeth for them. If my building was 50+ I would.
I can kill 69s with a loot crew but it is still 2 hulls and like 50 hostiles to get one daily pull... That's DOA content for me
I would like to say, thank you to the mods (who are volunteers) especially on days like this, where you end up getting the brunt of the community displeasure right to the face, but I at least appreciate what you do.
Not all my feedback is negative, tho it feels like it lately.
update now over 4hrs and still this happens in webstore everytime I try to claim mission key what's the eta on a fix <@&509690795536941056>
All hail the volunteers that have to put up with the mess the developers and project management make for the customers
<@&509690795536941056> the new ship looks pretty cool i guess... that's all the feedback i can give cause i don't plan on doing much at all for this arc cause it's still just a 1 trick pony to me, and i haven't done a single duo wave meaning it's useless to me so ftp grinding it for the next 100 something days cause i also can barely be bothered doing the drone loop... have i also stated that i only still play for the alliance chat? is that fixed yet?
Making quality of life dependent on certain conditions is, quite simply, an admission of failure. Scopley seems to be acknowledging that their product is so poor that the intrinsic enjoyment of playing it is dwindling. Expectations for the game have been non-existent for some time now, yet Scopley manages to fall even short of those. It is only the community (Alliance) that keeps me playing. You shouldnāt spend any more money on this game.
Jesus who asked for the search bar for ships? Looks terrible on iOS and is more cumbersome than just scrolling through.
Mine worked, it took 5m to appear on the computer screen in game.
I've been clicking on it every 5 minutes since 1201pm. I'm also not only one unable to get it i have a whale in my alliance that hasn't been able to claim it either
Another instance of inconsistency
DM'd you
it happens last arc it took 3 days for me to get 1st webstore key thank god it's a 29 day arc now lmfao
we had the same issue a few days ago took nearly a day to get fixed
Missing the BattlePass, happened last month too. Am I gonna have to submit tickets every month now and wait 10 days for a reply???
<@&509690795536941056>
It would be really nice when we can get back password login on web pageā¦
I wait now for multiple minutes to get the token emailā¦
Its a stupid because there is no fallback when the mail servers are slow you wait ages..
yep thats why for me I usally harass them early so I can still do certain things before arc finishes lol
Tell me you do all update testing (lol) on PC and don't even look at updates on mobile devices anymore without telling me.
The filter by name box is way too bright sometimes its pops and i think its a visual bug like that in archive
Make it gray
It's not great if you do have it. this bp 'rewards' us with officer depot tokens, after they removed the officer depot store this morning...
To my mind, swapping the button back to where it was and putting the search box after would work better on many levels, including fixing that issue and less accidently misclicks out of habit (because this game makes you do things so many times, muscle memory is a thing)
I like it, and since the search box is white and the confirm button is green, I'm good with its location. š¤·
I didn't ask for it there were other places I wanted the search bar but now that it's there I like it it's a Time saver.
I typed it in all caps like I always do and I got mine
Promo code for 51-60 has different officers than specified: SNW M'Benga and James Kirk instead of Black Ops M'Benga and Sam Kirk, doesn't make much difference, but could be checked. Think it was that with the Kirks, but 100% sure about the M'Benga.
I just want to take a moment to thank the people at scopely that are responsible for putting in the search filters everywhere! I'm loving it!
I finally got it! Now it wonāt give me the Mission Key. It says I collected it but will let me Claim it again. It never appears in the game. š¤£
could that be that there is no rare gas in the battlepass ? is that new now ?? i am lost
<@&509690795536941056> say why does this bp have quite a bit less of everything in it compared to last arc, sigma tri to name one? If this is going to be the trend moving forward what's the date when we just start gettin double digits...
Also why do 2 milestones in the paid track have nothing but lat in them? Not only nothing but lat but an arguably useless 8.6m of it?
did they just get rid of the old recruiting tokens completely?!
I'm not even going to bother with the officer depot š© chance rewards. The whole point of it was to give us the choice as to which officer shards we wanted. I refuse to participate in yet another š© chance system.
What happened to Arc's being a month long event? not even the end of the month and already into the next arc and lost 2 milestones on the battlepass. Still no choice rewards and this time not a single bit of Gas anywhere in the battlepass
This is another update that is most obviously meant to make people quit. Another update with almost offensive anti-player changes. I ask the same question like every other update : Why does scopely hate its players so much?
0,000000 Rare G6 Gas in the battlepass
ok this is a bad joke now 
I love how in the DTI faction, one officer has a slider, yet they can't bother putting them on the rest of them, so I have to click through 5 at a time. It's just so ridiculous that any kind of QOL changes happen so slowly.
It feels like they don't want to make this game anymore but the parent company won't let them stop so they're tanking the numbers a little more each month so they can kill it.
It's the conclusion many of us have come to as well, and that they seem to hate the players, for any QOL improvements they make come through with conditions and out of spite. If they truly listened to us, then this game would be much, much better. As it stands now, it's held together with duct tape and gum.
so that at some point they can say : so sad, we tried. Unfortunately we have no idea why they all quit
Yep. Their typical avoiding responsibility and gaslighting players.
Is anyone else having trouble claiming anything from the online store?
The webstore is broken for me. I can't claim my mission key, it keeps coming back. I can't look at the contents of packets, I hit the 'i' button and it just hangs with blank text
I assume by saying you added āmajor enhancementsā to the rewards in the battlepass you meant remove and lower the amount of materials you get. No rare gas.
Admittedly I dont see it as gaslighting. But only because the ones responsible at scopely barely ever communicate with us lower life forms down here. The mods here have to bare the worst of peoples reactions, but the ones on top only make it worse. The only feedback we get is those reponsible making it worse with every update. Which translate into a middlefinger paired with "you though that was bad? wait what we have in store for you this time"
And the only give the squall and dauntless ship parts to paying customers in the other battlepasses lol. This is such a bad joke.
It's very simple... The game has very clearly communicated to me that they don't want me to spend money anymore, so why should I not listen to that.
Given that this is the store, I fully expect this to be fixed as priority #1 with priority #2 being any errors that benefit players
who doesn't like a good mystery pack ā lol
What's funny is I figured this out because my buddy and I were seeing different rare g7 amounts on the in game thing so I went to check the webstore and... so yeah... scopley did good stuff today mostly but it's not gonna become super competent over night
i seriously think you are having a laugh you want us to pay twice for battlepass no problem but you put no 6* rare gas in only crystal and ore
I get gaslit in the support request at times by some of the reps. That's where I usually see it.
What is happening in the game is neglect and abuse. I feel like I'm in an abusive relationship with Scopely.
Okay, you've taken away all the good stores within hours of events ending ..... when is this one going away? We haven't done this event in over 6 months, time for the store to go away too.
<@&509690795536941056> On a positive side: Thanks for implementing the search bars - it only took you 2 years after I suggested it š #š-suggestions message - almost looks like in my mock-up
now can we also please get rid of the repair ship with lat button and replace that with an instant repair with speedups button?
and we keep coming back. Its one of the more unhealthy parts of that abusive relationship
Almost, but not quite... YOUR layout was much better
Exactly. It's days like today when I seriously start rethinking my decision to stay. I'm only staying for my alliance at this point. I can honestly say I hate this game. It's not fun anymore. It used to be. I'm much happier when I'm away for hours at a time doing something enjoyable.
I know, the search bar now messes with your muscle memory on the confirm button š
I hate the search box and keep selecting it in error - it should be on the right not in the middle if we must have it at all. It seems like one more thing to overload the game. Stop with the so-called quality of life improvements and fix what's already in the game, please.
EXACTLY! I keep going to click and getting the search bar
The Fleet Commander skills window does not come up to add skill points.
love how i can finally farm for my first refinery pull, i just need a hundred more hulls for it. (thats with 300% increased loot)
The training drone nerf did it for me /sarcasm
if you're talking about mission keys mine finally showed up in game after claiming it at event reset from webstore
This content is DOA. 7 loot per hostile and need 6k loot for a roll at chest in refinery. Fix it
they nerfed the crap out of these hostiles. try a crew that doesn't look so looty. I can hit the g7 hostiles now with a crew that did not work for me before.
well i did explode on 62s before and now can do 63s, 64s maybe. The crew finishes combat second round. Can i go higher with tuning it, very likely, would i get more loot out of it .. i somehow doubt it.
Building lvl 20 btw
I'll swap to cube, stuff some below decks and see how high i can do
i'm pretty well off ship wise and i can't really use a loot crew effectively on these. i just use the loot boosts from various researches and fleet commanders. it doubles what you get from each hostile. just gotta find the sweet spot of what to hit with a good combat/mitigation crew
the issue is, i need 95k loot for a single pull, even doubling or tripling the loot per hostile doesnt cut it
Look at the brightside. If you don't have the new ship there's no events to do so you can grind hulls sll day everyday lol
320 loot, thats still almost 300 kills of those to get a single refinery pull.
or 600 lvl 64 hostiles
game really creaking at the seams today, barely functional
well since scopely wants only cash from and destroys battle pass so we can't get 6* rare gas anymore i've decided not to spend again and i'll be deleting my ops 70 account on Monday when i've managed to say all my goodbyes to alliance allies ect
Inventory filter and ship filter is a huge QOL improvement. thansk Scopely!
The gas thing is just them missing an item. Already listed i known issues
<@&509690795536941056> When you get a chance, I would like a DM, I want to archive my account please.
What about the drastically reduced payout of rss and mats overall in the bp? RSS and mats used to come together in a milestone. Now theyāre split up, with only two mat and rss payouts respectively as opposed to 4. The amounts locked behind mythic are much larger yes, but I would wager the math will say itās still less than the choice system or the pre-choice system.
you need to go through support
There is no option for archive, just delete account.
Send an email requesting it
thank you for your response
It is my pleasure to help players take the next step away from the game
This entire arc, all the content, is just soā¦..bleh. I donāt think I have cared less for any content you all have released ever. The hostiles even with the āfixā are still too beefy and take too much time grinding to get the 24K I need to pull ONE chest. Duo wavesā¦.ive done ONE and Iām in absolutely no rush to do anymore. Itās just not enjoyable. Itās the same repetitive garbage each month. Your rinse and repeat content and continue to ignore feedback from the players about how to improve and how terrible the content is. Youāre tone deaf. Take the NX-01 IA for example. It can be maxed in early G5, but level 71 to master? Cmon. Call it Star Trek click all night command because thatās all it is. The same thing over and over and my claims every day take nearly 20 minutes. Youāve got to find a way to fix this. Your developers should be playing daily and seeing the issues first hand. If you donāt want to listen, donāt bother with the new content pause that supposedly coming. Just start prepping your resumes and shut it down. And hereās a tip: youāre probably better off leaving the past two years blank rather than your employment with Scopley/STFC for job prospects.
As I'm no where near the last ship, I expect my engagement with this arc will be less. The academy drones that you have to ops a building to kill effectively, but you can't level the building without... it's too much, it's not fun, and this isn't a job, just going to let it get left behind.
Based on the terrible G5 scrapping ... Can you give me one reason why I should upgrade this? I already have 3 maxed level 60 epic ships (one of each).
Half way to a borg sphere to start a grind I don't care about for marginal rewards... gotta slow down this constant progression of new ships/officers. or, don't, but don't be shocked when engagement dies
Changing officer depot tokens to be a chance reward without adjusting the payout efficiency or making any other improvements is a slap in the face.
Now instead of (slowly) building for specific officers we haven't maxed we will mostly just get transporter patterns. This is useless for those of us who have maxed all the useful officers you can get with transporter patterns... At least make it so you can get more shards per token or make some of the officer depot shards available with transporter patterns.
I would mind the RNG less if there was no chance of getting TPs if there are still officers I can get, so the handful of epics and rares I need are the only ones that pop up
It's white. The other is bright green like always. Your brain should be trained to the green by now. I like the search bar vs time-consuming scrolling.
Muscle memory works on position not colourā¦
Muscle memory can work on a lot of things, playing pool, target practice, but you missed what I said. I said your brain should be trained to the green. Yes, that is possible. Your eyes are used to going to the green button. It didn't move that far and is the same color. š
<@&509690795536941056>
Thanks you for the Bulk Claim Update.
There are issues & personally think itās a mistake to place it behind a Daily logon, but regardless itās a welcome addition.
That said it feels like the start of this Arc is going to further alienate the G5 community as the Simulation BattlePass & Event rewards are terrible, surprising considering the previous months failure:
-Events rewarding irrelevant/depreciated materials.
e.g. There are events for G5 players only rewarding G4 materials.
-Splitting rewards fails to hide an individual reduction.
e.g. Dilth/Steel/Trit from the related Crystal/Gas/Ore
-Officer Depot Tokens are effectively worthless with the removal of the Officer Choice.
The recruit pool is filled with to many ājunkā officers with F2P sourcing.
-Lack of current Building/Ship parts or Faction Credits from recent Arcs in the basic path.
With a disappointing numbers in the Elite Path (?the amounts from original F2P path?)
-Ship Upgrade events locking out mid 50ās+ specialty ship parts.
e.g. SS Rev event only accepts Uncommonās parts (reportedly as intended), SLB locking out Rare / Epic parts for other shipsā¦
Itās easy to go on..
But the critical point is this will not encourage G5 players to move towards G6ā¦
To say nothing of retaining the disenfranchised G5 base who waffled on Archiving/Quiting after last Arcās non-stop failures & cutbacks.
What is truly frustrating is the contrast with āInterstellar Dominanceā
This series is rewarding current meta Building/Ship parts, Artifact Shards, etc.
It has its flaws (e.g. not cycling between different newer officers, etc) but this is an event series that encourages growth & feels rewarding.
Please reconsider the current course:
It feels like you are trying to force the G5 player base into G6+ by punishing them.
Return to focusing on encouraging growth through rewarding events the current path is pushing many to Archive/Deletion, including myself.
I love how it says guaranteed in "X" number of rolls. What's guaranteed? The officer I want? No. One of each type? Doubtful. That whole bucket idea is a huge you know what to the players. I get more from the galaxy and ultra recruits.
<@&509690795536941056> is the only way to fix the missing BPs to submitted a ticket? ... or will it at some point auto fix? ... cause i really dont want to send 12 diffrent emails... because the issue affecting "a small percentage" of players... effected more then half of my accounts... thats not a small percentage
I used to be a regaular spender... ops56 and I would get the new ship or building, and if it was REALLY good, maybe an upgrade pack, and the bp.
I had stopped getting the mirror pass because it wasn't really worth anything anymore, and then they changed that, too, and there was even LESS reason to buy it.
As of last month, no need to spend since nothing worth spending on!
This is my first feedback, so apologize if itās been brought up adnauseamā¦can we please get the KirāShara fixed? The queue breaks after the first 1 or 2, even if 10 are selected. I submitted a ticket months ago, received a little gift package with the acknowledgment that it was a known issueā¦and still itās broken. Beyond frustrating
One more thing I wanted to add. If the game's not fun then the game's nothing. That's what scopely forgot. They see the game as a money grab. Not as something that's fun.
Iām in the same boat, last year I stopped occasional ship/other purchases and for more then 6+ months havenāt gotten a BP because they have been worthless for the RoE.
@tidal notch @raw fiber can one of you message me...
The new loop all depends on the building, yet the BP has a single day for building stuff rewards.
@raw fiber Are you guys serious? Build the ship in the first mission? lol what a joke.
You guys know that 90% of the players don't read and just click click click and choose best reward...
Spend or FOMO š¤£
But seriously think it was mentioned itās being raised as an issue, but the fact itās structured that way is very telling
still ridiculous! Not the first time something like this happens and they keep doing it. This lack of professionalism is the main reason why I don't spend on this game.
significant lag on server 76
Please put the friggin' button back where it belongs
and the best thing is they want that the Player Invite new People to a game with this Bugs and Mismanagement
One of the most ill-timed and tone deaf player events in the history of online gaming..
something like that just work on a Disney Movie
Iād agree but Disneyās been cranking out a decade of flops chocked full of unnecessary politics, ideology and (also) tone deaf content ignoring the hopes and dreams of the fandomā¦.
Wait,,, is Scopley secretly working with DISNEY?!?!
<@&509690795536941056> So I realized tonight what I think might be the root cause of complaints. New content used to be power checks, not āyou have to have this ship or building at a certain lvlā. Swarm you could grind until you got the Frank and it got easier. Silents were a straight up power check. Exiles, a pain, but you could do them until the relativity made them easier. However, a lot of the content lately has required either the ship or the building to be able to participate in it at all. Aggregation? Have to upgrade the building. Vger? Have to have the excelsior to fully participate. Maverick? Building and sphere. Academy? Building and Athena. I suspect Iām not alone to say I appreciate power checks, but donāt appreciate having to either buy something or wait several months to be able to participate in content. Spending to make it easier is fine. Spending to participate is not.
Muscle memory, by definition, is purely based on movement. It is a subconscious action.
I've clicked on that stupid search bar like 40 times today because of muscle memory. Playing on mobile, my hand always goes to the exact same spot on the screen like a reflex when doing things quickly.
Again, I didn't say muscle memory. I said your brain should be trained to go to the green by now. That is something totally different. Your eyes see the bright green button, your brain learns that is what you press. Shifting that bright green button to the right slightly doesn't change the fact that your eyes & brain seek out the green button because that's what it's learned. It's NOT muscle memory.
<@&509690795536941056>
I play on a phone too. My eyes and brain go to the "green", not the location. My brain tells my eyes I need to click on the green button. Since it hasn't moved that far, it's easy to click the new location.
100% always click on the search now instead of the green button. Eyes are not involved. Muscle memory
Really feels like they are trolling us at this point
And sometimes, I am playing and I have my attention dragged away while in the middle of doing something for a second because I rarely have time to sit and just game uninterrupted. It's why I play on a phone and not PC. Usually I'm trying to fit 10 minutes of gaming into errands or cooking dinner or whatever and sometimes my eyes aren't always on my screen. I just know where things are. And it sounds like I'm far from the only person with this problem. This game takes a lot of time and I usually end up splitting that time into small chunks throughout my day. Or do you not have other humans in your life who interrupt you when they need you?
Any neurologist phd candidates, I this might be a case study for you.
search feature works nicely. thank you. now, we need a bookmark feature for the search results š
Iām a dancer. Muscle memory is far more dominant than āooh, whereās the green button?ā
Your bookmarks work? Mine clear themselves every couple of weeks at random
Musician and same
same. once in a while it went "poof!" and i had to redo them again.
I've been a dancer, I'm a singer, I've been a bartender, so I'm very familiar with muscle memory. I still have no problem hitting the green button that has been moved a half inch sideways to the right of where it was. It's still right in front of my face.š You might want to try some.
why on earth at ops 71 do i even still get Apex Outlaw? here is a suggestion, by ops 60, retire the event........... @finite mural
Stella Would have been a perfect addition to the Archiveā¦
And youāll be able to āMasterā it at OPās 81
you would think it would have been archived BEFORE the NX arc, JS
Logic need not apply
Im sure itās likely covered already but- what is the real reason the nx-01 independent archive mastery is set 20 ops higher than the ops you are able to max it? Is it to drive spending? Sure some form of power check is needed but you could have had nx mastery set a lot lower and it make more sense.
Independent archives was a genius way to close old out of date loops. If its viewed as another progression speedup mechanic why delay the āspeedupā to ops 71. Who in their right mind is gonna just decide to speed ops to 71 to close a loop they maxed in g5. The loot claim for nx mastery by the time you get to ops 71 is useless at that level while it wld be very useful in g5 and most of g6. In g7 that loot is just adding to your inventory of useless items to sift through. We saw this when the mantis and meridian were added but 20 ops over the set ships max ops level is just mean and spiteful to the player base.
So you max the ship in g5 and then you have to continue the loop for 15-20 ops levels to feed the refinery before you can use the IA pull⦠that doesnt lighten load for players. It becomes a burden that will foster disdain and drive people away.
Independent archives was a way to free up players time for newer content. Having to wait until ops 71 for nx01 loop mastery does the exact opposite.
Scopely-add this to your fix list. Nx-01 independent archive mastery at ops 71 is broken right out of the box.
šÆagree and their justification is completely undermined by the fact that it scales with Primes and Ship skins, meaning they could have had a reasonable archive OPās level
and they need to either take the limit off of mycelium or increase the node sizes so its not so mind numbing to gather mycelium
Logic and reason need not apply when ignoring it might, just maybe, have an off chance, for someone to spend something on a special ability fuel
with all of the insta-warps open now, we need a higher mycelium reserve
You can always get more out of Alliance Tourn... oh
no one in their right mind at higher ops would spend $$ on mycelium and Alliance Tourney is only once per month and i burn thru that way before the next one comes up
Yes and no one with any common sense would spend $99.99 for the currently active ViāDar and SS Rev specials runningā¦
But I promise you someone will buy it, and hate Scopley later for it, because that is the current trend, profit now, screw repeat customers
they are REALLY running a vidar special run????? OMG
Freaking shameful
Fix the goddamned bugs. Kir shara bug is making the hostile hunts so much worse.
It's a disgrace.
Nerfing the academy drone loot drops by about 400% is TOTAL GARBAGE. This is completely ridiculous and now I can no longer work the loop at all. I used to be able to get 1 pull from 1 hull worth of grinding. Now I need to go thru 5 hulls to get the same pull. This is not fun pls adjust the loot. <@&509690795536941056>
I am just going tp stop working the loop at all. GREAT WORK SCOPELY your correction made things even worse.
Ya I am done spending money. I used to spend @$500/month but this just confirms my decision to quit spending and maybe quitting entirely. All the changes are garbage antiplayer adjustments. I have had enough of getting rogered from behind at every opportunity. Scopely hates Star Trek and they hate the players and I dont think they will ever stop.
NO MORE MONEY FROM ME. I predict I have 2 months before I stop logging in to this game at all.
On the flip side, now I can finally do 1 pull with 2 trips, and Iām a poor $20 a month spender. Couldnāt do a single pull before.
I think I'm just gonna quit the loop. I am not going to grind 6 or 7 hulls for one refinery pull. I just wont bother... and as I begin to lag behind others I will just quit and play a game that doesnt hate me and actually works.
