I'm sure you all would want a 'Instant Level 50' pack for $1
and why would you want it? coz you are impatient
you want everything NOW, prefferably as easy as posssible
@candid plank would you mind changing your nick to something that is acceptable by the rules ?
I think that nickname is NSFW
just remove the last two words and it's fine by me (personally)
Good morning to all. ... - are any news on the intended update available? β π
yes, in #β-official-announcements , deployed tomorrow
@candid plank do not remove or change anything at all. THC is not a vitamin either. It is completely false and I dont see anyone asking to change it either.
I just asked, no force
and yes, VitaminTHC ain't a vitamin, it's a nickname. what he does is abusing the nickname to send a message/opinion, it says something about his opinion, and thus is not a nickname at all
and despite all that, all I friendly requested was, to perhaps remove the last two words, as the last one doesn't belong in a non-NSFW server
you can use other words that have similar meanings but are compliant with the rules we have here
@solemn coral you should not judge people and put words in their mouth. Your comment, considering you are moderator is very unprofessional. You have no clue about the person and what are they like, how they think. He is not the only one who thinks resource conversion ratio definitely suck. Not any proper game has "chance" when it comes to gathering resources.
That is how you want to see it, because you take it personally. Your concern how you interpret his nickname, not his. To me it does not mean anything because I dont focus on it. And if that is how he wants it, so be it.
I could have a nickname "gamesucksballs" ...and it could mean anything, for any game. Would I care what you would asking of me? No.
BUt how is still sucks bad?? in the context it means it's crap, or worthless.
I don't see anything wrong with the name, yes it is stating an item of the game Sucks, it's a slang term yes, but so are so many other words
actually, you don't know about me either, coz we mods are players as well
we have the same issues with conversion ratings and such
and we address them regulary
we play under the same enviroment as you, suffer the same losses, having the same issues with refinery and such
in german, I am aware
as 'ummm, I think so"
I requested the CM to forward a suggestion to implement a setting to turn the profanity filter off on request
the feature is present in other scopely games
@livid vapor actually it's the word 'um' that is filtered, probably because it could be interpreted as 'ur mom'
or is some bad word in other languages
ok just double checked that, your' right it is just um. but still. what may be wrong for one may not be for another... don't get me wrong, I do agree language need to be filtered, but there are some that are just pulling that censorship to the extreme
hence why I requested that feature
π
it's been on my list for quite a while, but I rerequested during the last meeting on friday
Don't worry I'm not trying to undermine your Mod position, just was more wondering, something like the name above isn't that bad compared to some others we have seen around π
I actually would like to step down as mod and slip into a less agressive role
one where I can still be a medium between players and the company, but without the hammer
I bet thats a statement from me you did not expect @azure sphinx
and yes, if you would use the nickname 'gamesucksballs', that would be a reason for mods to request a nickname change, followed by a kick/ban if you do not comply
even if it reflects a personal opinion, as said, there are better words to choose from to reflect a similar opinion
see rules 1, 3 and 7
A PM would perhaps have been a better way to give me an indication that my nickname is inappropriate. I don't intend it to be offensive. Can I use #Vacuum cleaners still suck? Where does it state in the rules that my nickname cannot be used to reflect my personal opinion? The Mayflower is an underpowered ship (compared to it's Klingon and Romulan counterparts) that was sold to players as a powerful destroyer of Klingon hostiles and as such it sucks.
I understand moderating this type of community chats isnβt always fun and sometimes itβs hard to decide where to draw the line. I have spent several hundred euros on the Mayflower and upgrades and have gotten info several times that it will be rebalanced but nothing has happened. That is why I use this nickname.
<@&509691205798592532> may i ask, in this game can one simply called other player or alliance a "nazi"?
@solemn coral I actually think that you misunderstood the use of the term sarcasm at no point was I being sarcastic. What I was doing was point out the fact (as has been done many, many, many times before) that the refinery rates are not reflective of what it actual required. It has nothing to do with wanting to speed up and get to level 1 billion the 1st (thatβs sarcasm). I have been playing for a long time now and I have played enough games to know decent drop rates and poor drop rates. This game does not even rate a poor drop rate
And tbh I donβt really appreciate you assuming I want everything now. I have played the long haul and I am just pointing out the stupidity of the production rates.
if you would have followed the march Q&A session, you would have known that it is announced that refinery will change during the next months
I know you would love to have 300 rares on every trial in order to upgrade your stuff, but it would defeat the name RARE or UNCOMMON
you folks wanna play much faster then it was intended
as one of the devs once said, try a asian rpg game where it takes months to increase your level
as I mentioned elsewhere as well, perhaps those low rates are there in order to slow down progress
for the purpose of giving them time to implement more stuff, because as far as I am aware, they didn't realized some people to already hit the current levelcap of 39
so in the eyes of the coders, you folks play too fast
you got more chances in WoW to get an 1% drop chance mount than a rare in the refinery π
then go play wow if it makes you more happy
who says i don;t play it atm :p
cmon 28 for faction ship :))
still need like 15k more rom credits and like 16k more fed credits to go
but plenty of time
@solemn coral is it calling a player or an alliance a "nazi" allowed in this game?
if putin is censured think nazi should be too
I doubt it, against the TOS
Someone in my server calling us nazi in gc
report them ^^
I have screenshot it. Its so offensive
Engage in unlawful, abusive, threatening, obscene, defamatory, libelous, harassing, hateful, violent, racist, or otherwise objectionable or offensive acts, whether by posting and/or transmitting such information through our Services, or by any other means (e.g., by posting links to such content).
file a ticket with support
hitting the report button is not enough, they need a separate ingame ticket
@autumn sorrel as said, file that screenshot using an ingame ticket or through https://scopely.helpshift.com/a/star-trek-fleet-command/?p=web&contact=1
if you use the webform, attach your playerid as well
and he is probably reffering to a player with that name
at least, not knowing the history, nor the server, thats how I would interpret that screenshot
I read it as him mentioning RedAngel, you or a player called Nazzi
He thought the redangel is associate with out alliance but he is just a rogue player
*our
I really think he talks about a player, even took the time to caps it correctly compared to the rest mostly written lowercase
Yea I agree, those are peoples player names, I know as My wife plays on the same server,
he only applies uppercase to names, alliance tags and 'I'
(I'm on a different founding server)
Tho i do also know that in that server there was ALOT of that language happening, and Extremely offensive name calling like Nazi etc, and cheating, and multiple accounts
not in this case
Hence why my wife stopped playing has it was extremely Toxic
except for calling someone ridicoulous perhaps
yes I agree, not from what i see from those screenshots π
@autumn sorrel so you misinterpreted the situation
He destroys anyone who get into his way
This goblinangel is extremely toxic player
I'm only going on what that screenshot says, as I'm not on that server, and my wife hasn't been playing, so haven't seen much of what has ben happening lately,
yes and? what does that have to do with that screenshot ?
or with you thinking he calls your alliance being nazi's while he talks about a player ?
he is in his right to raid whoever he wants according to the gamerules and does not need to follow any serverwide rules you agreed upon locally
if you got a problem with that, discuss that locally
if he violates the tos, feel free to report him through a ticket
Ahh yup π
is he Troll or is he still around??
Troll left long time ago
good
He passed the leadership to slip
And Slip passed it to Lapchong
If while conversion is needed please let me know. I'm happy to provide. Please take action against this dude!... This is how he talks to anyone. I always find a free mine to mine, but immature ppl seem to find its way to abuse and harass for some reason. This kind of people should NOT be in the game.
If whole*
ah, game refreshed and I lost chat due to the game erasing messages. But I hope this is evidence enough. I did report him via game though. @delicate sentinel
I cannot imagine what goes thru kids mind when he or she encounters such abusive language of another person on the other side. Although it could be a kid as well on the other side. Bullying other kids.
@delicate sentinel <@&509690795536941056> when is the maintenance happening? How long? Need to make sure shields are up
@azure sphinx Thanks for your report but please submit it to the in-game customer service. They'll be able to help and apply penalties far quicker than we could here. π
I've removed the screenshots containing the profanity.
Any word on us being able to switch servers, or invite players to a current server?
So why does Scopely choose to increase the data mining rate of the Boundary Bay when NOBODY talks about that as a problem, yet they fail to address all of the bugs and issues that people actually have with the game?
They quite likely have an event coming that will need the improved rates.
@nova sierra reported. Attached all screenshots I had. I hope so. This kind of crap and people with such mean behavior do not belong in any gaming.
@strong shard It does not seem like they care. I dont know. Friends and I report cheaters all the time in GTA and their response is fenomenal. I would say. How and when they ban people, I dont know. But long ago, hangar cheat happened and not long after I heard from people their GTA bank accounts being adjusted. So, quite effective. Even other things I ask, their solutions are straight to the point. So, perhaps Scopely could learn a thing or to from Rockstar. Just thinking out loud. I stopped caring, unfortunately, about this game. I am little disappointed. Connecting with good people, players is great though. It is amazing how well you can connect with someone although you dont really know them but friendliness and teamwork mindset is there. Quite cool.
@azure sphinx what are these "cheaters" you report doing. For example on my server many assume that my alliance cheats, simply because be are so dominant. Being in the alliance i know for a fact this supposed cheating is not occuring.
What cheating ar eyou referring to on your server, and what evidence do you have?
@torn wadi cheating refers as an example I was talking about GTA-using as an example versus Scopely. π
Please move the recall button somewhere else and add a zoom in and out option. My ships fly away sometimes
I thought you can only attack players and station if you are 5 levels away and 15 or over this is not the case im being attacked as a level 20 by a player of level 29
his ship he using level 25 but his power 400k
alliance VETS
Only gets worse from there
@nova sierra join the club, am lvl 19, my station got slaughtered by a lvl 27 player. His ship was lvl 19 but strength of 137k
@nova sierra The range +/- that you can hit/be hit by, gets wider as your ops level increases.
A quick Discord search show this post, here:
https://discordapp.com/channels/509679626763632640/509685973966389258/550899766566060044
3 hour maintenance, π
@nova sierra @merry crescent you guys should get to hivemind and actually look up what the PvP Range is.
I'm not a big fan of what the PvP range is myself, largely because I think it should be linked to power instead of level, but it is what it is and if you don't know who can hit you... well, that's partially Scopely's fault in my eyes for not making it clear in game, but it's also yours for not researching it appropriately on HiveMind.
@mint burrow A lot of good things are happening with this maintenance though; check #β-official-announcements π
@nova sierra Good intentions. When they move from Dev to Production, who knows what will happen.
The planned updates do look good.
@nova sierra Regardless of past events, we must try to stay optimistic! Also, did you see the new ships that were found after APAC maintenance? Like omg π π
@nova sierra I honestly don't know what you're talking about with 'new ships'. That's not in the official announcements... only ship related thing I see is a fix for the B'Rel cargo capacity.
@nova sierra There's pictures of 'Hijacked Faction Ships' being spread around - not too long ago in #π-galaxy-chat
I guess it was a surprise π Although nobody knows how to obtain them yet.
Yeah, there are "hijacked" versions of the Walflower, Centurion, D3. And a "separatists" D3 apparently. Most likely event/pay ships
Here is my shopping list:
- Remote officer swap stations in each system. We have transporters, duh.
- Be able to see who is online within our alliance. Like how we can see who is online here.
- See where everyone's ships are at within our alliance in galaxy view, not just bases.
- When reading mission character storyline, disable the ability for other players to attack you since you can't do anything when the screen is shaded.
ah sigh
who deleted it here ?
coz I thought that crosspost belonged here instead of discussion
Please increase the size of the Tritanium mines.
@broken osprey can you put the old version back in here where it belongs ?
two mods saw the double post and thought different about which one to delete
I am one of them
<@&509691205798592532>
Can someone please ask that Scopely look at the Tritanium rewards for the "Battle of Glory" event? The recent repair changes have been an improvement, but the Tritanium cost seems excessive (~2.5 million to complete one). The bump down to 500 from 800 is great, so thank you for that. Perhaps a 30% increase in the Tritanium rewards at the cost of something else?
thank you π
I'll try here.
and it's Glory, not Clory
actually what you ask us to forward is already part of a bigger request: make gains worth the expenses
Recently, the game has seen some much needed improvement in the rewards and number/frequency of events. That's been great, and I'm looking forward to the continuation of such. The refinery (still not great) has clearly improved a bit. Pretty much everyone hopes to see the Bonus Refinery return after this mining event, but without the timer in place I have my doubts. If it doesn't, most of us will be very disappointed.
which I am sure of being forwarded many times π
Absolutely, and clearly Scopely is working on it. I couldn't even have said that 2 months ago.
they did make small changes, but the result seems to be still unsatisfying for the players
I'm a little perplexed why I've been ignored on my Help Tickets lately, but did get a pretty cool message from "Gala"(?). I never see them on here, though, so I haven't been able to reach out.
some are happy, some aren't, you can't make it right for everyone
The biggest gulf in expectations on the refinery for me and some others I know, is the batch size versus rewards.
Gala is a secondary CM here
and when she's on, she's mostly busy dealing with issues we push
The misconception is that it's an improvement on the type of results, but I've long noted that it's a "premium" cost to get another chance.
OK, thanks.
so yes, great addition to the team π
I think the refinery level, with details outlined (at least loosely) would quell some of the objections. In conjunction with that, ensuring that refining 900k raw g3 doesn't kick out 250 common refined only over the span of 48 hours would be good......
I've had that happen so many times, it's amazing I have hair.
refinery will be modded several times during the next months, as announced in the Q&A session we had here
Perhaps a minimum guarantee result would help? Maybe 1 batch doesn't, 2 guarantees an uncommon result, and 3 a rare result?
it just takes time to please both sides
Just a thought - the numbers don't have to be higher possibilities, just extant.
Oh, no doubt.
and with your suggestion, the name rare would make no purpose anymore
especially since we need our dailies, thus mine our asses off, so we got plenty we can turn into rare
The "pleasing both sides" I think would be addressed more readily by including the refinery details and level benefits in the description.
if we are nuts enough to accept the price of those 3 chests being absurd in my opinion
I don't see that being the case, when it takes approximately 500 rare to upgrade a Tier 7 Uncommon Grade 3* ship...maybe I'm missing something?
yes
the 'please take it easy folks, you are getting too fast too close to the current levelcap' option
500 rare, means minimum 250 days of refining 3 batches if there is a minimum of 1 rare returned.....
Well, I may get lynched for saying this, but....what if there was a chance to raid materials and not just resources on station attacks? (I don't think it's the answer, just a spitball).
once you reach the current levelcap of 39, things get boring, as there are no missions yet etc
just the standard stuff
Things are already boring. Due to refinery keeping me back
do you even have research available to do by then ?
Something more cost-incentivized and sea-change is needed for that.
I do, but only because I'm juggling upgrades.
I haven't spent much in the past couple of months, mainly because it would take $1,000 to upgrade my Centurion to Tier 8, or the same for Antares to Tier 5, etc....
Faction research, I can still do. Other than that, I only have 5 researches left that are possible.
One of which is grade 4*ships.....
Love how they announced the maintenance times in the middle of the night when no one could put up a long enough shield unless you're on in the middle of the night
An open conflict sector, full of revenge ships would be a great start to more content - just changing some current systems would do it:
- 1 revenge ship of each faction spawns
- Center of the system, have a "mission point" where if you reach it, you can "donate" a prize from the same system to get the reward. If the prizes can only be had in the same system, level dependency would be critical.
- The systems are already there, 2-3 per faction, and at least 30 in neutral space with no "habitable" planets.
Actually, Quando - they told us 4 days ago that there would be maintenance today.
@hollow scaffold
Indeed Quando. Announce maintenance to go down during an v event nonetheless while half the world is asleep? Great job guys....
yes they did say there would be maintenance, but NO WHERE in that message was times listed. They didn't announce the times until 330am when the maintenance started at 0700 am. My shield was placed at 11pm to end at 0700. Luckily, I wake up at 0600 for work and saw the push alert from discord on my phone. Most people aren't that lucky
despite people asking all day yesterday what times the maintenance would be
@broken osprey
Why would I put up a 24 hour shield? that's a waste unless Scopely provided it. Usually with maintenance, they provide a shield the day before hand, and I'm not giving them any more money until they fix the bugs and take care of their players better. They did not give us the shield this time, nor announce with enough window when the maintenance would be. I am speaking on behalf of my alliance because I always send them alerts to remember maintenance times because we have a server full of vultures
So, should I tell you that the US servers are back up? π
Well, server 22 at least...
Reset the damn missions. I want to do them again since they have much more appealing rewards. New missions would be much needed fresh air, would fix the stagnation on higher lvls for a bit time.
Attacked after maintenance had started. This shouldn't be allowed
I certainly hope that something is done for all the players that had all their missions finished!! These rewards now, compared to what they were are epic! It is a serious punch to the stomach to not be able to get those rewards simply because we were early adopters to the game. I sincerely hope that they reset the missions so that players can do them over to reap the new rewards!
@azure sphinx the total duration is 3hrs, but they don't need that much for each of the servers
they always recommend you shield up and recall your miners before maintenance... not sure what you expected
@ornate hedge who had their missions completed for them? I sure in heck didnβt
@wind grotto no, the missions that you completed and got the lackluster rewards prior to the update today
Gotcha. Well I can say for sure. Nothing changed for my game. No updates.
Take a look at your missions. Your rewards are much higher than they were before and now include large amounts of uncommon/rare minerals and much amounts of faction credits @wind grotto
The mission rewards have ( did you check?
Exile for example has gone from +13k klingon points to +100k
Not that I can reach the system to do the damn thing π
lol ohh I see, so now I get 16 livis shards for paying 7.5M tritanium, yeah... thanks but still no thanks π
Hey @delicate sentinel , love the updated rewards on the faction missions, don't love that I've now missed out on countless faction credits and uncommon building mats. Is there going to be a positive faction specific "Loyalty" chest for all the missions we have already completed?
and the non-faction ones didn't change
That mission had no faction credits, and no uncommon, and no rare minerals as the reward yesterday. Look at it now.
@ornate hedge that's cool but what will you have to do to get those rares?
Doesn't matter what has to be done. That's not the point. As a level 34 player I, among hundreds of others, have completed tons of faction missions. Thus are missing out on Thousands of faction credits, and hundreds of uncommon/rare minerals. The end result of what we have to do is beside the point. I'd be curious to go back now and go through every mission and calculate exactly how many packs worth of of faction credits and minerals lower level player will now get that we had to shell out of pocket expenses for. It isn't right.
@azure sphinx maintenance didn't last 3 hours. it was barely an hour. and with a fortunate... yeah, about right.
What I am talking about is the changes to the miners that was so talked about and the whole point to this update.
changes to the miners??? @wind grotto
Only the BB got a buff.
yeah, from 46K/hr in Yarda to 76K/hr π
not bad, I hope they will bring some augment events to allow us to get those new ship BPs π
buff isn'to protected cargo @wind grotto it's to data mining rate. go look at a node and see what your new rate is compared to the old
Yoiu might also need to clear the app cache for stuff to change
or look at the ship ability and not the mining bonus
If I hadn't put money into my account I would 100% restart the game to reap the benefits that only new players seem to get from scopely, as they've continued to support new players rather than adding content or fixing bugs for established players
No big deal, probably wonβt use it anyways. Hardly have used to this point, wish I could just sell it along with all the other useless miners I have waisted time on.
@gentle goblet I was expecting the app to be down for 3 hrs like they said. I took advantage of mining during that time as noone can attack you. The only peaceful time you can actually gather some. But...people are people. And some are real assholes, have no basic understanding and respect for other players, especially lower ones. They steal at the first chance they get. For me that is pathetic, weak and cowardice... but it seems for many that is ok. Anyhow...yea... no worries, I have seen worse. Thanks for reply.
They got rid of the TEST MISSION Hallelujah
π
Where is the Tau Ceti equivalent for KLINGON space? Or is there none because no one likes the Klingons?
Why is it I'll refine gas for a week straight and get no uncommons, but when I refine one batch of 3* ore after not refining for 2 weeks, I get uncommon ore first refine?
@delicate sentinel what happen to the supposed warehouse increase??? None on trit or dil and none on par even though the warehouse itself says an extra 1.1 mill par that it doesnt have??? Too low even if it did work!!!
Very disappointed
@tepid nimbus any chance of an explanation as to what happened with the patch? Short on duration, and the bugs resulting from it??
thank you for punching us loyal players who have played the game in the stomach. I wish i could redo those missions for the new rewards. Are you going to get compensated for being loyal? Or is this a punishment for being loyal?
I agree, I've always completed all the missions I could at the time and now this. I could have enough credits to get my bortas. It shouldn't be that hard to retroactively give everyone the correct rewards.
I do regret doing the missions with rewards like 20 credits now, wish they could be undone so I can get the new rewards
@delicate sentinel Btw. I don't want to get a chest for all the mission rewards I now miss like someone suggested, I'd rather do the missions and have fun with them again. You could even do that the same mission could be picked multiple times with some randomization, same like events are basically reocurring missions. You could grind these missions same like you can grind hostiles for rss rewards. The missions could refresh every day/week and be a little randomized and their difficulty/rewards balanced based on the system where they spawn.
<@&509690795536941056> Thanks for continuing to show us that you dont give a flying fuck about early adopters to the game. I have never seen another game that holds such blatant disregard and outright hostility to the players that have been with them from the start. I feel betrayed and disgusted by this. Thank you again for confirming that early adopters and people that put time, energy, and money into the game are not valued to you.
For the love of god WHY again have you done new stuff for the high lvl players: ie new ships for lvl26 shipyards and sweet F A for us low lvls no wonder people are quitting this game
@willow galleon Technically lower lvl players are benefitting the most. THe updates they gave to faction mission GREATLY increased the rewards
which us as low levels havent completed yet
giving 3* rare materials when before they gave none, and more than tripling the faction rep gained
Yup. And as the higher you get the more you're bottlenecked by the refinerNOPE, it's rather frustrating to see that you've missed out on progressing sooner by... trying to progress and complete missions.
Missions are still impossible to complete, uncommon 3* rss is ridiculous to get refining over a week and not one uncommon 3* gas or crystal
one of my kling missions gives out 16 3* uncommon... another Rom mission gives 5 3* rare ore
yeah tough but beforee they were tough with almost no reward. Now thayre increased tenfold
Trash what lvl are you
@empty shell I'm sure they didn't do everything in 1 swing and more is coming.
I hope you are right. Let's see.
at least the help counter is back, nice one
I ve done a bunch of faction missions... And now rewards are way better... π‘
Anzac Alliance is a breach of the terms of service? Really. Thanks for the break from your game!
Might go and find another game to play for 24 hours.
<@&509690795536941056> The new Alliance design looks good, but the last two members are still cut in funktion. no kick possible.
The warehouse change does not seem to be working, it should be at 7.5 MM steel at level 28, with the 5MM plus the 50% bonus. It is only reading as the prepatch amount of 4MM.
My warehouse looks like it did before the patch. Just upgraded the client, still the same
in the window to purchase the upgrade, the amounts are changed. however, when i click on the resource icons at the top of the screen, the amounts have NOT changed and I should be having to tap my generators...
Also same as above, my bb says the mining % is just 300%
@thin ridge it is correct by me.
I may have been checking the wrong value, standby
@vocal crow my bad. I was looking at standard bonus. Data mining skill looks good
This is bad I really hope they will either reset all changed missions or compensate players who did the missions already. This is seriously a kick in the lower underbelly of high rollers
lvl 30 attacking a lvl 21, this is the hit to activate the 10 min peace shield of a player that is online !
Scopley, this is complete bullshit, maybe it is a drop in the ocean of rss for the lvl 30, but it is a great deal for the lvl 21. And you wonder why you can't retain players !
Why do they get rss on the first hit !
The Problem ist the pvp range! Until lvl 16 it is okay but after that it is just stupid. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_d20TfiDvC34KiHNBEe6LDcOKNi8qdYsnMBOU2L-e-k/edit?usp=sharing
I know the range, it is the feedback channel, so giving feedback, on how shit it is for the smaller players !
The new faction store UI is a step backwards. Can't see all faction rankings at a glance anymore, the store items seem like they're begging for accidental purchases with the buttons right where you touch to scroll, and it takes longer to load than before
i like that you can purchase multiple things at once, can switch more easily between the different faction stores, and its seemingly gotten rid of the scroll lag that actually did cause accidental purchases
Iβve unlocked 3x new crew but I donβt see the unlock page anymore :(
Uhura example of unlock page
Gorkon didnβt show the unlock page so only got this standard look :(
It is nice to see you around @jaunty whale
Have we met? @frigid jolt ππ»β
π
Probably not in RL
What is with the huge negative Rep? I am trying to dual faction and it is rather difficult if I turn in 1 mission and lose more rep from the second faction. Can this be adjusted? I don't really want to mine my way there.
just turn in a mission for the other faction as well to balance π
I completed some Fed missions recently, so had to work my way and grind some Fed NPCs to balance it again with my Rom rep
worked nicely with the events
You know that is exactly what happened to battle pirates everybody quitting your money squandered on better ships so much so the average player was Mincemeat so only players left were serious coiners.
Thatβs useful. As I posted the refinery is a very talked about topic and I might not be able to do it full justice... I wanted it to be relatable from player experience without digging into numbers
There is probably someone better equipped to go over numbers for refinery
I'm going to go out on a limb here and pin this amazing piece of constructive feedback written by Kaution for the next few days.
I'd like for as many people as possible to read it, respond to it and follow this beautiful example on how to share your feedback.
Well done @dawn nexus !
xD I understand where the last part is coming from
But we definitely have a very different opinion of what a CM is suppose to do
Again this is very personal to titles / initiatives as each one requires a different approach
For example - For me a community manager should always stay behind the scenes and provide tools to the community to flourish
Talking with the community is, sometimes, especially on a discord server obsolete. For example, I can say a few things, mitigate some issues and overall try and provide a better experience, but when the sentiment for the game revolves around.. the game itself and the mechanics, the value I can provide is minimal to nothing. So in this case my job should be to try and get more people who have this knowledge to join the player base so that they can share with them what the players really want. Basically insight to everything that's going on and properly answer players' questions
I also wanna talk about the big Tv screen (loved the analogy). On this one you actually are on point and I'm trying to build a proper layer of content to start streaming it through there
Whether it would be opinionated posts, posts about what's happening in the back of the game etc. For the moment it's only being used for major maintenance updates and also we're currently building a plan to have segmented news per level describing what you have unlocked, what's new and what you should be expecting
I'm also trying to figure out how we're going at it and what would be the best use
Like - For example I'm trying to get rotating and news for upcoming events, dates etc
Because the last part has been super asked by the community
In conclusion - I think all your points are super valid and very constructive but I can tell you that everything you've said (especially about community) I've already thought about and I'm trying to come up with a proper plan to tackle this issue
I hope this makes sense and I hope I haven't missed anything. I have some super exciting news that I wanna share with you asap but I can't because you know..... hype and stuff π
But, this is EXACTLY the kind of feedback I'm looking for
and if I can have a constant stream of it I can therefore hold the beacon to fulfill the needs required
I canβt say I agree with everything but for the most part I understand where you are coming from on all points and I appreciate your response. Seeing responses like this is what gives confidence to players... Iβm 100% sure anyone that sees this will go wow awesome to see.
I think we need more of it - it feels engaging. Not everyone is on this Discord and I think that ingame/social media and so fourth isnβt used well enough to feel like thereβs that connection between gamers and Scopely
It's as I've mentioned
Community Management at the moment is such an obscure role and comprises of many parts - Social, Video, Content, Feedback et
sometimes finding that fine line in how to use your time wisely and more valuable is what makes a good community manager vs what makes one that just wastes there times on meaningless tasks and not providing the greatest value
Iβve not worked on a Mobile Game, but Iβve worked within different pc gaming genres and event eSports
For yourself - You find actively talking to players on a regular basis is vastly more important than the others and I definitely respect that
I've also worked with PC game and a lot of esports
So I have a different idea on engagement because of eSports and live events
Main experience was when I worked for League of LEgends and growing it's esports for 7 years
So again, this is a vastly different community then what we are working with here
Always brings call of duty to mind.... Get me a beach towel
I always treated it as being one of them (a player) and my employers knew this so there was always friction but a healthy one
In my initial years working at Riot I was constantly on forums and even on social answering players and talking with them - After a few years I realised that my time could've been used much better if I 1. Mentored content creators to make better content. 2. Create more engaging social campaigns 3. Provide proper training courses for everyone in the company to jump onto the forums
And your time comments I couldnβt agree more, if you spent your time responding to every person on here you would get nothing done
At the same time one (like your self) can argue that if you're a community manager you need to manage the community by being one of them
But what's the ideal situation
I dunno
noone does because the metrics and KPIs from community management are non-existant
But some transparency would be amazing. Or setting up a schedule or monthly session for community engagement where you focus primarily on the players without other job factors taking you away
you can have qunatitative KPIs - i.e How many posts did we have on social, how many upvotes, how many people shared there thoughts on forums and discord, how many people are getting on discord, how many active players we have
Or qualititative KPIs - How many players are talking positively about the game, how many liked the campaigns, how many players are acting positively after I talked to them
Again these are such obscure KPIs that we can't really measure them because the factors also come from the game itsel
Yes, we'd love to get exact answers, not partial truths/answers, just like answering a judge
If the game is unplayable, you can't login etc, then anything you do as a CM is negligible and will be seen as a failure
I agree fully - you canβt measure the effectiveness or productivity levels well for CM style roles
And that's where the argument comes in - What's the right way
who knows
Maybe I'm right, maybe you are
Which is why I said I donβt know what goes on behind closed doors
Maybe depending on the game we're managing it requires a different approach
But what you both said
You might be a world beater but circumstances mean you canβt show or divulge what goes on
more questions being answered accurately
Politics happen in every work place
That's something I'm working with the company
It's not on me to let you guys see what's going on
Like this: "community" when is the patch coming?
"Devs" patch will be the 24th at 6pm local time, we're doing/adding x, y,and z to the game
For example - If it was up to me Id love if most of the numbers of the game were released
For me community management is fostering those conversations
If I can allow you guys to have all the tools to talk about the game, to try and make up your own ideas, to theorize
for me that's healthy and amazing stuff
But it's not that easy
At Riot it took me 3 years
3 freaking years for them to understand that staying behind closed doors will only push away the community
Where did you work in Riot ?
cause you need to build loyalty
Do you know Deman and Joe ?
They are long term real life friends of mine
But was there when he left unfortunately
Yeah, and when I don't know what to expect, how will I fully trust the devs
I dunno but ask him if he remembers Philip the Greek from Riot Dublin π
@hallow pumice really honest and good point
Will do π
But from them how do you manage these expectations right?
Like, where do you draw that line
and that's something we have to align
The difference between Riot and Scopely (from a CM) is that they trust me to do what I think is right and they trust that anyone they hire can do the best to their ability the best job they can do
To round off the conversation - I fully intend to use Reddit as my go to feed back source because it wonβt get lost in the Discord Black Hole
I think we should promote it
like I wish this conversation lived on Reddit
What I think the community wants is given dates for things, and patch notes containing all changes even if their hard to understand
If the dates change, just let the community know
@hallow pumice Everything in the patch notes is True and full
I just responded - copy paste your initial response there !
Sometimes you don't know dates till the last minute
so what I have to do is just figure out when it's best to say or not - In this case it's just streamlining it
For the record when you are engaging and we talk. Youβre amicable, mostly knowledgable, polite, up for a laugh and I feel like our chats are productive. I would like to work with you and I may get frustrated but itβs not because of you π
Discord is a bad platform for you because it is an literal black hole / time sink
But we are using it so!
I donβt think I ever had direct access to a CM via mIRC back in the days
100% agree
and if the community feels that way
then I should be more active here - And honestly I love having these conversations. I'm not perfect in what I do and I need to be challenged, if I'm not then how else will I get better and get this community to a better place.
I honestly wish I had the time sometimes to do this but there is so much going on that there are some days where I have 2 hours to do some work otherwise it's only meetings π
I can vouch for that, this man comes and go's like omg stay a while plsss i need you
But I definitely wanna thank you for bringing all this up. You haven't in the slightest offended me, on the contrary I feel that I know have way more things on my plate to help out
So.... who's gonna eternalize all this on Reddit now? @delicate sentinel @dawn nexus π
π
Well volunteered :)?
Good read. Great ideas. I will have to sign up for reddit when not at work.
you're so kind
It's like assigning blame for a fart, whoever smelt it dealt it! @nova sierra
No I'm joking, I'm gonna copy pasta my tuff
This user is now offline.
One thing I would like to add about the refinery is setting the cool down times if anything, to 8 hours or a multiple of 4 so when doing shield management I can refine at the same time. The 9 hour does not fit with anything.
Also a cool town token or something we can farm or earn to reduce the time. Maybe when turning in mining dailys

Lol, but some feed back I have is the new ships and their upcoming event aren't good in my opinion
@delicate sentinelβ¬οΈ about to explain why I think what I said above
So from what I'm hearing the new ships are intended so people can obtain them without having to spend 200 usd, or whatever currency it is, to buy them, however almost everyone who is level 26 or above already has bought one of these ships, or more, so basically its a way for them to get the same ship or another one of them again, while the people who don't want to buy them (like me) are below level 26, I'm level 21 rn, so it won't help me, only way I see this as a beneficial event is if it reoccurs after like 2 months when people like me are higher levels and might be able to participate in the event
But we don't yet know what the event is, or how they will be obtained. Perhaps these will be a new addition to the augment faction store fer bp's like the other factions but ones ya can get bp's fer and not have to buy. I am thinking these will be a way fer the ftp players to be able to grind out one of these ships and not be only available to the ptp players. At least this is what I truly hope fer. I am still several weeks at least away from the level 28 factions and am now getting outgunned pretty consistently by those who have the money fer these early faction ships. A way to level the field a bit would be great, as well as the opportunity to get any of these and not only the faction one would be great also.
Can we please change how hostiles spawn in each system with a 3 level range? For the current event, wherever i go there's only a 33% chance of the ship level i want to hit being there. Either reduce the level range of hostile spawns, or add more tiers of points rewards for hitting higher levels.
At lvl27 i get 20 points per lvl30+ kill - or 3x29s for 18 points. Given how long it takes to kill them all and repair it's extremely inefficient to hit lvl29s, and i take far more damage killing lvl31s. If you gave a bit more points for hitting the 31s it'd be a lot less frustrating. If it was a 2 level range then i could go to a 30/31 system and at least not waste my time hitting 29s - as it is when i finish repairing and see the whole system covered in lvl29 mobs i just can't be bothered to clear them.
So tell me this is working properly... The 3 batch amount is no much better than the 2 batch.
3 batches is 75k raw materials. This needs to be addressed.
@cinder garden My guess is that we are supposed to work together with lower and higher level players in our alliance. Someone will need the 29, someone 30 and someone 31 and if you do your hunt in the same system it should be an even spawn of the correct lvl hostiles.
Some elements of the redesign are nice, but why canβt I tell the balance of my daily tokens?
If I have to βtrustβ you guys, this wonβt work.
Hey, the watch the repair timer game is growing increasingly tiresome. Over the last week repairing for 16hours in a day and being able to actually PLAY, around 3 hours is NOT AT ALL FUN
@half kelp what is even in those packs?
@hallow pumice , you get allotments of speedups, par, trip, dil, ore, gas, crystal (both common and uncommon)
They give you enough tokens for 30 daysβwhich you used to be able to see, but canβt now.
Let me guess you have to buy them
look for them in your inventory under OTHER
Yes, @hallow pumice , you buy a pack. Gives you 30 days of regular bunches of materials.
In the $100 ultimate Ship ppack, why would I need 2* ship parts at Operations level 28? Why not give us enough 3* ship parts and mats to actually get 2 tiers?
@lapis gorge. Because everyone needs their trusty 2* ships
already max tiered those and do not use them anymore.
How much is too much to spend on this game? You do not want to know how much I have spent. I don't want my wife to know...
Not if you get positive reps for two factions
Wrong channel for this so sorry for bloating it with them.
@hallow pumice
Anyone else not have the $19.99 Daily June Pack option?
@candid plank which one of the packs is it?
the $100 one
That's horrible for $100
Oh, a tad bit better, but still not worth $100
Lol what would be worth 100$ to you?
I can go buy modern warfare 2 for $15, I can get a 3ds for about $100, and other games for $10-$60
$100 should get you 50 of each 3* rare, 500 uncommon, 100 mil parsteel, 75mil trit, 50m dilithium, 30 epic ship bps, x10, 000 ultra recruit tokens, x 4,000 premium recruit tokens, 2,500 recruit tokens, and more
@gentle goblet β¬οΈ think this is a bit more reasonable for $100
Lol well good luck with that @hallow pumice
Lol, but it's a lot more reasonable
Well, the monthly packs are as good as it gets for this game
Oh, I forgot repair speed ups, and regular speed ups, along with faction credits
I doubt they'll make much profit from packs you consider reasonable
That's why they don't sell them, but in your opinion do you think that'd be reasonable?
Well for which level?
I think at the higher levels the UC and Steel might mot be far off
And you get lat which can replace some other stuff
This is what you get at 26
Plus the dailies
@half kelp you can still see the tokens in your inventory at least
@gentle goblet it shouldn't change too much, unless your in the teens using 2* mats, and rss
Well it's level based, higher levels need more stuff lol
Well I still payed the money regardless
What would a lvl21 do with 26M steel except getting stripped out of it?
Dunno wtf the pack still gives 2* mats at lvl27
Yeah dunno either
Anyone else not seeing all 3 june packs? I'm only seeing the 50/100 ones, but i want to buy the 20
Yeah once you've spent enough money you're not allowed to be cheap any more, £££ or nothing.
So I'm a 'qualified sales opportunity' what a group of fucking dirty bastards
@gentle goblet it doesn't make sense (the 2*mats) so why not give the rss to a level 21? It'd give more rss to the server, and make more tempting raids
The game is designed that first you can progress f2p, then you progress with money, but after some time even your monthly salary won't be enough and there is no way to progress. The more you pay, the further you progress into deep pit of increased costs. It's non-sustainable. I stopped playing the game for progression and play for events and player interaction. Don't care if I have nothing to build, research or upgrade and need to wait. Very liberating.
Like BeyondTheStars mentioned, $100 is worth 2 AAA titles that give full experience for months. $100 here gives you a weapon upgrade for your ship..
It s slim pickings now days fr all those high lvl players took all the rss form stations ..... they should do a server merge and get rid of all the inactives fr itβs hundreds of them?? Any thoughts on it
I looked at purchasing a 99 dollar ship package and then realized the were not enough rare minerals to even advance my ship. So I saved 99 dollars. You need to make your packages more attractive to purchase or sell minerals oil and gas in separate packages
@hallow pumice yeah they should really remove the 2* stuff lol
What's up with there being almost no level 26 hostiles in level 26 systems?
level 26 system will have 25-27 hostiles, given the current event most likely everyone targets the 26 ones for maximum efficiency...
wish I knew before going to lvl20 that it will be impossible to do battle event
on lvl19 I was able to finish it with time to spare...
wish the difficulty would be based on player power not just lvl
Need push notifications for building and researching
Ship freezes after wining combat, only way is to restart game
Push notification arrived 3 mins after the attack. Nice.
Getting real tired of this automatic return crap, i send 2 ships, i should have tbe choice to recall not oops it recalled on its fawking own cause now i have to send it all over again. Wasting even more time, half a fawking hour just waiting for ships to get where i want them and oh recalled now turns into an hour and a half.
Thank for absolutly nothing
Oh and btw, in game, got attacked, and game froze, thanks for base getting drained.
Ship freeze after hostile combat, forced to restart to get control back 50/50
NGC 1995 here. I need help! I purchased 7 day loyalty chest but never got my rewards. Please help!
@haughty palm Customer Support should be able to assist you with your issue. π
Do you know how to file a ticket in-game?
How does offers work? Small pack disappears after reaching a certain lvl, or after purchasing an advanced/master pack? For me, the smallest pack is advanced (not counting a small shield pack), wich is in my currency is my one day money earn. I don't think I can afford advanced/master pack, but would buy a normal one. The company does seem like they don't want my money. Sometimes selling cheaper service makes more income because people spend small amounts easier.
Take faction tokens off main recruit screen. I only use ONE faction, I don't need yo see how many I have. I DO want to see how many standard, premium, and ultra tokens I have WITHOUT having to go in to another screen.
Hi STFC Team, after the last update I still miss following what really hurts!
With lvl 22 you can raid basis not under lvl 17 (difference of 5 lvl points). But at the same time you could raided by guys over lvl 34 with a difference of 12 lvl points! This is not fair! Could you please improve that; for example: +- 3 lvl points of difference would help. Thanks in advance.
@nova sierra: thumbsup: I agree
Can anybody tell me why I keep getting bumped off in those and I'm mining on when nobody's there
Shields are now invalidated as soon as you decide to attack rather than only after the battle commences. Either way is fine but this seems significant and should have been announced.
@glossy drum base or ship?
Either
In the most recent case, a ship that warped away so no actual attack took place
@glossy drum been like that at least since last augment event
@nova sierra congrats dude, you got your miner blown up
A polished turd, if ever I saw one.
Same price, gold border to make it seem better
Keep using that countdown timer and scarcity marketing tactic scopely, rather than offering value π©
Reset all missions now or give out the missing rewards.
I love how content is packaged so well sticking to Star Trek dogma in every aspect of the game. My fine example of scopley at their best I present The Federation Ship The USS Browning a BB with a proud history of sticking it to the Romulan Empire
@valid galleon undercover fed ship π from section 31, don't forget the. "Vulcan" vahklas that is a payflower
Allow us to switch or invite a player to a server.
Please add Scopley Faction... the higher the faction the cheaper the packs π
The game needs a way to delete the log mine says I have 10 unread logs but no way to delete them. Also delete ships that your not going to build and the ones you don't use. And just one more suggestion move the election above the manage button so that the it reads location manage and then recall. Those are my thoughts. Hopefully my thoughts will be useful.
Move the location button above the manage button is what that was suppose to say not election. Dang autocorrect lol
Please fix this mission. there is no excuse for this reward. As a matter of fact fix a large amount of the missions.
There are many missions where the "rewards" are more like punishments
@quiet quail it's like the devs themselves, π
I thought it was a glitch and wasn't showing the rewards right so I restarted the game. NOPE!
@nova sierra why is the Gladius still weaker than the Saladin? A rare level below it?
And sometimes just straight game breaking
758,000 damage on a ship 52k more powerful
Getting really tired of this shit
Really? Why isnβt the gladius working.
@nova sierra @delicate sentinel enough with the Saladin already!!!
Harrison got you @dusky pebble
An office should not help you beat that much more powerful of a ship
Thatβs is not in Rock Paper Scissors
@regal loom I have had 400k Saladin beat my 600k centurion
With Kirk/spock/Uhura
With some miraculous 500k crits in a row
Even though Napes has shit crew right there
seems to me if napes had a real crew hed have won, almost did anyway
@digital oar your ship is a lower tier, so it's more based on defense and hull health, at your level, weapons get stronger down the line
@hallow pumice explain to me why my centurion gets beat by lower tier saladins then
Against Rock Paper Scissors
Crits with harrison
So that is functioning game mechanic to go against the Rock Paper Scissors game mechanics?
You strip away the main defense of a explorer, and the hull health is left open for targeting with no shields to protect
Only for the first turn, but if that crit comes on the first turn then the battle is most likely going to the saladin
So why again should a weaker ship win against Rock Paper Scissors be in the game mechanics
because explorers are heavily biased to shield HP, harrison bypasses this
Because interceptors use kinetic weapons which pierce shields, unlike energy weapons, so usually a Sally vs centurion fight will have a Saladin (when it wins) killing all hull health with most shields left on the centurion
Also in your case your ship, has weaker weapon systems
So one ship in the game should bypass Rock Paper Scissors?
The uncommon faction ships (lvl 28) are stronger than they should be for the most part
Because you just donβt need Harrison
Here is my fight with a sal
You are all trying to pin this onnharrison
Yeah look at that Napes barely wins no Harrison.
And same crew
Saladin need adjusted
Im sick and tired of itβs lopsided giant crits
We have a level 39 guy in our alliance who uses Two saladins and doesnβt even bother with his 1 million power intrepid lol
Intrepid is far raiding, not for pvp
Any reason I canβt buy the $20 pack? Is it because I bought it in April and May and am now stuck with her decision to either quit playing or spend more money?
Or farming
Sounds like you are an apologist
@raw silo spend more money is the only way they allow you to go, I'd go f2p, and continue playing, unless a special offer comes around, and it's worthwhile
No doubt @digital oar the Saladin has an OP crit
Itβs mechanic breaking
@raw silo if $100 packs are in your budget, it is one of the better deals in the pay store
@raw silo it is one of the better offers $copely gives
Well I never said I was, arguing about it, I already said the level 28 faction ships are op, maybe you missed this
The centurion is a lvl 28 faction ship too
But here's my opinion, make a officer to counter Harrison, and decrease the power of crits
I am lucky to sneak $20 monthly past my wife, she does the bills. π€£.
Yeah better not to spend $20 then
Lmao, take over for her and then it won't be too hard π
I wish my wife did the bills Iβve spent.. a lot
@digital oar the cent beats the brel 1v1 too
as he said, the level 28s are overpowered relative to the 32s
If you look into the fed channel, you'll see we were talking about the Saladin, vs the centurion
and you are using interceptor vs interceptor
That would be less shocking
@wicked jetty we are talking centurion also
A centurion should not beat an intrepid for example
Iβve heard intrepids are weak also.
Issue with game is the weapons systems, (kinetic, and energy) and the types of officers
I dont think the centurion beats an intrepid
I would hope not
unless its a fresh out the shipyard intrepid
But a Saladin can beat a centurion
Power level only mattered back when 2* ships were the main
The issue is a higher or same power lvl centurion should not loose to a equal Saladin as much as it does
Again weapons, it's tuoid, but yes weapons, and officers make the difference
@dusky pebble reason you won is probably because of the kirk moral glitch, and he doesn't have the favorable setup for a saladin
Hereβs some general feedback: why isnβt there a leader board for resources mined and hostiles killed? You know, two stats that you actually care about when it comes to trying to improve an alliances event performance.
those would actually be really good leaderboards
@digital oar thereβs two things going on there. 1) explorers suck in combat. I think they realized that in beta which is why they have βotherβ benefits like extra crew slots and higher warp speed. 2). Power is run off of an equation. Each point of shield/hull is 0.5 power. Each point of armor piercing is 5 points, etc. Damage per round is woefully under represented in that equation and interceptors do a hell of a lot of damage per round. In my experience, an interceptor will do twice as much damage if not more per round than an equal power (number) explorer.
Without seeing the battle logs the discussion is fruitless.
We all know the Sala is a hard nut to crack in combat. As are interceptors in general.
comparing shipstrenght at this lvl only by the one number is sorry just not possible.
It is just an indicator where your ships stands on overall performance...
But you only rely on Rock Paper Scissors thank god combat is not that simple.
I was happy playing this game at first, but now I am stuck where I cannot research or go to level 20 because I cannot get the materials required. For some reason I struggle to mine because although I do not randomly attack other players, I am regularly attacked while mining. I have given up trying to use my North Star because I am always destroyed and only get to keep about 1% of what I mined...thus is utterly ridiculous! I can spend a small amount of money from time to time, but clearly the game developers made this game simply to make as much money hand over fist as possible. Hate to stop playing, but I am not enjoying spinning my wheels just to get destroyed daily. Let me know when you have a version for casual players without lots of money to spend.
@past finch Akira it sounds like you are being attacked because you are over protected cargo. The north star is not really a useful ship for mining because on most servers if you are over protected cargo your fair game to hit. On my server we don't hit empty miners but the moment they are over protected cargo they can and will be killed. At your level the only miners you should really be using is the envoy. Put crew in that increase the protected cargo mine up to the point you are no longer protected then recall your miner. Also dont go afk on a node people will kill you if your sat on a 0 node.
I was mining with my envoy, it got destroyed twice, not over cap, not zero node...one a Vahklas and the other a Khera...had my Northstar hit while sitting waiting to use as a placeholder so I could send Envoy back to empty, was just saying it is silly to have such a low protected cargo on it...Iβm just tired of feeling like the schoolyard bully is picking on me...I donβt under why Iβm a target all the time...I was watching my ship this morning...it was the same way last night...people with big, powerful ships just like to destroy lesser players just to be top of leaderboard and Iβm tired of being destroyed for no good reason....but I do appreciate your advice...my Envoy is leveled as high as possible right now with Stone, TβPring, and other material specific miners...but apparently I have a large target painted on the side of it...
@delicate sentinel i bought the June Loot pack and did not get all listed resources. Sent 3 messages to Scopellt support and got BS answers. I took screen shopper os what i was suppose to get and did not. Is this a bait and switch??? If any scopely rep is on here please PM me because your in app help sucks
I totally get advertising packages in the game but is is necessary to remind me that I am poor every time I log in?
yes because you should work harder and stay poor.... just earn more and pay it directly to scopley π it sucks but its what they do
I know the feeling
<@&509690795536941056> <@&509691205798592532> there is nowhere near enough Dilithium in high level research packs. I can only get 5M per $100, so every research item is $400 now?
@storm hornet I'd wait 'till more missions are either adjusted in rewards or introduced in the game personally. But that's an option too, I suppose - for those who want to push it to the limit.
well, 400$ and 27 days wait π
@gentle goblet I've never waited for research lol. Lat speedups ftw. π
so Lat for dil as well?
dunno what would be the ratio with these numbers but you have 3.9M lat
Keeping that for speedups and emergency purchases. If I start using it to buy Dil I'll run out in a couple of purchases.
The conversion rate is terrible.
Why is the june basic reward pack not in the store? I won't spend $50 or $100 for the choice or elite packs, but $20 would get my wallet open
did you buy a pack last month?
I skipped May but got April or March I think
Also these power increase events suck hard when you're stuck behind the uncommon G3 bottleneck!
@gaunt osprey yeah once you spend some money in they hide the smaller pakcs away
I bought the 50$ pack in March, in April they only showed me the 100$ one... then in May had 50&100 back
Yes I know what they do, this channel is for feedback, and my feedback is that sucks
They even show me the ad on launch for the basic pack sometimes
@storm hornet hostile bosses?
What does it mean that some of the ally members are backlighted green??
@mild hemlock already farmed those and spent all that researching
No way to get more except for packs
Oh well
This is an example of new math? Maybe we really can travel faster than light thinking like this.
Love how Scopely sits there and allows cheaters who are known and been caught out, to be able to still play. Yet when someone has a name or tag that when read is offensive to some they do nothing about it, except pick on some other player for theres. Good work retards, Im glad to see that US Federan't wait to hear the amount of compensation that you will have to pay under the US Federal Cyber Laws.
@wheat seal whats wrong with the math ? It's correct
3500 - 48 = 3452 remaining space in cargo, that divided by a rate of 3300/hour = 1.046 = 1 hour and 2 minutes
then your cargo bay will be full
and for your info, warp travel is a form of FTL
Can we have a way to PM all alliance members at once? Would make life alot easier.
How do you find a player or alliance that is not in the top 100?
The new update is supposed to fix the late or no notification of being attacked. Sorry to say it didn't work.
I did get a notification, 12 min after initial attack. Too bad it only took 1 min after bubble down to empty 7 mil of resources. I had big hopes!
I am one of the few that doesn't even get the red flashy screen when attacked while online.
Kelvin from support doesnt seem to understand basic english and he dares to threaten customers, how can i stop him from ever taking my tickets?
@cinder owl they are bots
then they should fire that bot.... π
Anyone else getting fkd right off with low lvl players sitting on 3* mines?
LVL 9 Ffs. On a 3* node!
We have level 8s on those nodes
Your alliance?
Aw cβmon! This is getting stupid!
Nope, not mine, but some people do it, multiple actually
It needs to fkg stop.
Scuse my language but lvl 14 is bad enough. Lvl 9 is just a complete pisstake. π‘
I get you, it's annoying to find nodes
I'm lvl 22. Trying to get 3* nodes when they're taken by higher lvl is hard enough, but this takes the biscuit.
Repair times are still excessively boring
use speedups π
And my daily post: give out the changed mission rewards for missions already finished. It is ridicoulus player who spent the most on your game (making you profit) are this way cheated out of 100s and 100s of dollars...
I would be happy with just a quest reset
We would have to put the effort in again but the rewards would be worth it.
Me too or make it optional: Make a mission that resets all missions. Right now everyone who spends money to get ahead will always have to be afraid that such a drastic change will happen frequently and that it would be better not to spend and wait it out.
The change in rewards is just so,unbelievable drastic.
It is really bad for everyone and a developers choice nobody can comprehend.
There is generally performance downgrade on the redesigned faction store pages. Transitions take too long, it's laggy, sometimes the app freezes with spinning circle on black bacground. π
Whats the deal with having the daily hostile targets disappear all the time? Kill a few then the rest disappear. Its not like they go to another system either, They just disappear altogether?
Pathetic reward for killing level 30 hostiles!
We'd at least get a good laugh if we got a popup saying "Scopely screws it's customers"
It would provide a little lube wouldnt it..
@primal lake just combine it with the lvl30 combat training or your faction dailies... no need to go out of your way for it.
Whatβs up with the North Star only having a protected cargo of 365? This is utter nonsense, especially when you classify it as a miner!
Look, I donβt mind the bugs because I know you guys are working on them but honestly I have been losing interest in the game. I went from buying packs regularly to none at all in the last couple weeks. The big issue for me is the refinery. I log in to get no uncommon and then have nothing to do for 9hours. I have more resources than I can use but nothing to upgrade due to lack of uncommon g3. I just got tired of supplementing with packs. Thereβs no point. Hope this gets resolved in the future.

Thanks John
Scopely support is very hard to get and when they do they dont give that much help. I cant even get all the rss from my old account in to my new account (they broke my account after the merger happened).
even community managers provide very little help
Nothing new there
@rare storm the good news is as you gain levels your problem gets exponentially more difficult. Most people quit around level 30 where they realise its futile trying to refine
Low level players sit on g3 to piss off high level players... it works very well
So last week's data farm event was pointless and had nothing to do with the hijacked ships - will bps ever turn up in augment faction store?
Event releasing soon.
@cinder garden not pointless, I finally got to promote Marla ;)
Level7 player 3* mine
I upgraded Chen twice (lost 14k of officer points) and it still shows she needs to be upgraded. Is this happening to anyone else?
I had some lag on shards appearing after I opened crates today, maybe similar
@azure sphinx promote or level up?
Level up
How can I remove my account?
Delete the game lol which is the direction many are going
I don't want to left dead account for farming, I want complete remowal

<@&509690795536941056> I recently hit 10M rep with both Kling and Fed, now I'm working on fixing my Rom rep. I'm on vacation so have been focusing on doing the Rom missions. Generally these are great ways to play the game intermittently. The only problem is there aren't enough of them! π€― Not bad progress but now I'm out of missions, so it's pure Fed grinding from here on out. I'm up about 500k rep of the 2M needed to get dailies unlocked.
5m latinum..insane dude
@humble heath That just means he financially supports Scopely. lol
Well I just finished leveling to 39 and bought an Enterprise so the lat stacked up a bit lol
@storm hornet could've use the lat for fed credits π
How's that? I will need Rom credits soon, can use for that. Where do I exchange?
It's 50 lat for one credit
Where?
When you don't have enough credits and try to buy something it'll give you the option to use lat instead
Ok, I am dumb founded about something. If I move my closer to certain location. Why does the warp range stay the same? For instance if a warp range is 33 and I move to an adjacent system why does it remain warp range of 33?
You have enough lat to buy most of the augur bps rn
Do 50 x 180000
That should be 9,000,000 to get a augur with just lat
Bps
Ahh, I see. You have to try to buy something you can't afford. Terrible UI strikes again!
Scopely, don't you know people with money HAVE money because they DONT buy stuff they can't afford!?
Haha.
Please fix your UI, there are several places to do hidden exchanges, that's dumb. Better UI please! <@&509690795536941056>
Thx for the info @hallow pumice it looks like I'll get a free D4 or Augur if scopely ever fixes them.
Any talk of using lat for uncommon or rare?
Nope, none that I've heard about
Ok. Thanks
Anybody try the βShip Structureβ upgrade under station tree?
Helps with cost efficiency for ship upgrades
Can someone tell me why I see players highlighted in green when viewing alliance list?
@azure sphinx leveling up doesn't use the shards... those are needed for promotion
Any idea when my base will return to a state where it can be moved?
Becuz accumulating relocation tokens is fun, but not being able to spend them is not, also raiding a 4mil base with 15min travel times is kinda hard , giving them 2 hours to shield.....
And after 24 hours ud hope to be able to move ur base and not get the same explaination that i have to make sure i have to updated version and cleaned chache. Becuz these standard fixes dont work with yo ur annoying bugs.
And 1 response every 24 hours ingame also doesnt help
Who knows, and by any standard set by scopely, who cares.... The servers are dying, active players have few to no targets, very few if any new players starting, the cost of packs is getting beyond the ridiculous..
Such a shame, as I enjoy the game, as a lot do, but scopely do not seem to enjoy the players.....
@gentle goblet leveling up uses officer XP that you collect in the game. Chen achieved 40/40, so I was able to level her up. When I did, it still said 40/40-which should not do. So I clicked on level up once again and the same thing. While she stayed the same as seen on the photo, I lost Officer XP that I gather in the game. I have not been doing anything different for the last 3 or 4 months. Everything always worked. Now it doesnt. They have a problem-glitch. <@&509690795536941056>
Now I only wonder if they are going to return me either almost 15k of Officer Xp that I lost or level her up and return me 8600 that I lost.
Pat on the back for scopely for fixing the bugged storage, and implementing the new numbers
@azure sphinx I think youβre confusing level-up with promotion. These are different things.
Level-up requires officer XP.
Promotion requires officer XP too, and at higher levels it requires faction credits and badges.
Well as I posted before, your notifications are still comign late.
But how about increasing the volume on the alerts!
They are so low I barely hear them on the rare occasions I do get them on time!
Game progression based on random luck is such a bad idea. The refinery needs to be fixed so it doesn't stop you from actually doing anything if you aren't lucky enough to get the parts you need.
Hehe, I am not confusing anything. And I don't know why you guys are confused. Hehe. I have been talking about LEVEL UP the whole time.
I hope this gives clarity. :)
@hoary linden The client is under-estimating the repair cost/time by roughly ~1%.
So when you hit that button, you are deducted the actual costs and you get the intended repair times.
If you get an error showing you don't have enough resources, advice is to collect an additional small amount from either generators or hostiles.
The under-estimated values as shown in the client are referred to as a visual glitch and apparently it's extremely hard to find and fix.
At least it is consistent in doing so; so you can expect each repair to be off by the same amount each time.
Ive hit the uncommon wall. I literally cant progress, i.e. build somthing or upgrade a ship with uncommons. At level 28, i get an average of 15 of each gas/cry/ore a week from the refinery (12k twice a day). At this rate i can build one thing or upgrade a ship once every 2 months. Ye.... i can see why people quit the game. I see no point raiding trit/par/dil from bases if i cant use them. This refinery situation is getting game quittingly dull
To upgrade my kumari, needs 275 uncommon 3*... at the refinery rates, based off the average i get a week, its going to be 18 weeks before i can upgrade π€£ yes i know some events might give some resources, which could at best half the time, but even then waiting 2 months for each individual upgrade is...... brain numbing
Haha wait till u get higher it gets more epic fail ... 28 is easy when compared with the next few
My point is, i can see how people quit π€£
Yeah i just stay in here for the comedy relief
I think we have about 10 players on our server so yeah quitting is fairly high on priority for those that get to 28+ up until there its bearable
Most ships need a min of 1000+ uncommon which adds to the issues of the bases needing 300+ per building
@azure sphinx level up doesn't use shards
just officer XP
so seems like everything is working as intended...
No, everything is not working as it is suppose to. I dont know what you mean by shards. Yes, I have always used Officer XP and Chen's upgrade is not working properly. She levels up but she doesnt show she has leveled up. So, something is wrong. I have never had this before when I was leveling up officers.
<@&509690795536941056>
Don't know where to post, so I try this way. This morning I wanted to buy the montly package for 20,99β¬ called "Belohnungspaket Juno". I'm pretty sure it was in the shop until I leveled up to 20. Now I see only the package for 49,99β¬. Had the smaller one a shorter term? If so, why? Or is there a connection to my levelup?
The NAZI Alliance still disgustingly exists. And now the member is chatting about breaking a woman's nose.
@ocean mantle Please create a ticket in-game with the screenshots + send me the screenshots and your playerID.
hehe. Although it is...hm...disliking...I have to say the names they come up with are funny. Funny in a sense that makes me laugh at them. π (I just cant take them seriously,lol)... And names itself don't really bother me (personally), because they so well describe themselves (how ignorant they are and they make themselves an easy target). However, chatting about mental and physical abuse is more concerning than just a name. So, @ocean mantle π
@nova sierra @nova sierraUse the edit icon to pin, add or delete clips.
@ocean mantle Please send them via PM.
Don't know how to attach screenshot. The referring to onesself as a Nazi is offensive worldwide. The use of the nic NiggerAnal and casually chatting about breaking a woman's nose is horrific.
in this window that you type, you should see a plus button before (left side). By clickin on that, you are attaching a photo. @ocean mantle
I see. Ok. Yea, that happens when you get enough of those from the chest. She was 39/40 and got one more from the chest. When they are all/all, I level them up.
when they are 40/40 you can promote them
that adds more levels... so instead of level 10 which is currently the max, you will be able to level up to 15
yea, I know but I dont have 50k to promote π
Whenever officer is all/all ...and you level him up, it levels up to new number 1/N. She does not in this case. After I leveled her up.
So rn you have her at 8/10, from the current state when you level up she will be 9/10, when you promote she will become 8/15
but that is the thing, her status numbers do not change. Anytime before, they have.
ok so then you need to contact support in game, the screenshot with the 40/40 shards is confusing, as it seems to have nothing to do with the issue
I did. I submitted the report. I did everything they suggested. Problem still remains.
I go to Level Up tab and Level Up button.
And it remained 8/10 but it ate your xp?
Or actually... I think you are right @gentle goblet . 40/40 is meant for promotion while leveling up is separate. If I promoted her it would change.
Ah, I think my brain is fried. π
No @lilac saffron , I dont think it did. I think it moved up a level. But...the fact that she stayed at 40/40 among officers confused the heck out of me. π
I think you guys are right. And I interpreted wrong. π
Lol cool glad to get the hamster working again π lol
lol π yea... probably just took a while to process π
yeah, once you promote those 40/40 will go away to 0/XX together with your 50K XP
@delicate sentinel THIS is why people are leaving this game in droves ... Look at the huge Player LEVEL imbalance between the attacker and the base that was raided, after the base was first attacked by his even bigger ship.
I also had My rss taken away by the shield issue and they told me giving it Back would give an imbalance to the server 500k par 300k tri and 200k dili... they think we are Crazy
they dont return RSS because it will be stolen from you again by the same cheaters on your server
Yep
Can we have more ROM lvl 35 explorers ? Rep factions are impossible to complete if your big ship is a Borta and your targeted hostile are ROM
Has anyone suggested a limit to how often you can change your name or alliance name? Grievers are able to change names too easy. How about 1 name change per week? Once per month for alliances?
@scenic locust all of the physic changes(including your suggestion) will be brushed off into a black hole... unfortunately
Block the griefer, you won't see their trash talk and you can see each time they change name in your block list
Hello @delicate sentinel , <@&509690795536941056> ...i have been chatting in GC, AC and Private chat and all of the sudden my ipad shut down. Now whenever I open any of the Chat windows, including to Submit a report, my ipad turns off and turns on again. As if it was restarting.
I can play the game, do everything else in the game, apart from using the Chat window. Can you please report this to Support?
And is this happening to anyone else or has happened to anyone else?
Ipad has shut down over 10 times by now. The moment I tried to use the Chat window, it shut down and restarted.
Now, I also tried it with messenger. It just shuts down. So, it is not the app itself, I think. It is the Ipad. ..I am guessing.
She is - if there has to be anything about this at all, please contain it to #π-galaxy-chat. π
@nova sierra There are other projects than just HiveMind, but unfortunately the tables are not as well filled as HiveMind. I also have a game wiki, but there are still a lot of missing values in the tables, and it's hard to fill them because everyone just wants to profit from it, but nobody wants to contribute.
Never have resources to raid, never worry about being raided. Ive got to level 28 without the need to horde resources. It is possible.
@nova sierra not to disagree with you, but this is feedback related.
I'm not being contrary.
I'm aware but the majority is happening there for now, including Panic replying - Once it's possible to switch, that'll definitely be considered.
Well, you got feedback on how you're handling feedback. Or not handling it, per se. π
@nova sierra
π
Remarks regarding/including recent events can be made in #π-galaxy-chat should you feel the need to.
More sales π glad I'm a free to play who won't even see them in the store
Who knows maybe I might feel generous and buy one of these packs if they're good, but nope, I can't see them
Hey <@&509690795536941056> one of my biggest gripes right now is the progression of missions. If a mission starts in a warp 20 space, and you complete all the tasks including something as expensive as donating 1mil dil, but you need to warp to warp 40 space to collect, that's a problem. Start and finish your missions at the same distance please. Love, someone who's really frustrated that all of the missions they can turn in in order to build a faction ship are at a farther away distance than I can currently reach...
Is the Β£200 Marcus packs what you delayed the event for? You greedy gits.
probably and you only get half what you need....
Maybe scoplay can ignore what happened to the hivemind team and is able to be not aware. Star Trek is more than a label and no simple cashcow. they were wrong in attitude and behavior towards hivemind. I'll remember
This game is a big scam, nothing to do with Star Trek teachings and principles.
@wet sorrel agree. You're so right
Can we have more gaze 3 nodes ? It is impossible to mine with high level players 28 to 35 on systems 20 and 22. Block them and ask them to go to 30+ systems where they can mine.
Can we get a support team that actually cares for the consumers. See how fast they fix and offer when everyone stops spending and stops playing. Hows that for feedback
Odo is π
just balance ships and fix officer bugs. Fix refinery with a little more/better drops. and reduce a bit repair time or make rewards better. Stop doing these event shit, because players will not stay in the game if you dont fix the issues mentioned.
I quit. Scopely is a cash machine. Itβs a shame not to have a game without bugs. And now levels 22 are feeding levels 26 to 30 +. No more. Iβm donne with Stfc. Bye. Good game.
Or fix the ns miningbonus
Scoply ......
@scopely - as a big supporter of this game, I want to express my utter disappointment in this event turning out to one big CASH GRAB. Just when us the player think we are finally get some decent content and rewards, they spin this rubbish out at us and expect us to whip out the cards. Discusted and outraged and I have not spoken to a single player who is impressed in the least bit with this STUNT fro Scopely.
ONE forward, TWO back. Get your acts together please and put the players needs first for a change..
Two back... more like 2 miles back. Event is a fing joke. Nothing more than to screw over everyone that already has faction bps and try to force them and others to spend hundreds more.
Think it was on reddit I saw a post by a supposed dev claiming how shocked they were at how fast people went up in ops and that they never intended anyone to feel forced to buy anything to progres
π€£ sure they didn't if that where the case why is the store the only thing that isn't glitched to hell and back
I need to say I love this game since day one and was hyped for this event, but almost everyone in our alliance is already struggling with the first solo milestone.. Like I said this game is awesome but please work on the balance as only lvl 28+ player can reach some rewards.
Hell the event still isn't even up on our server
Be glad haha
It's cool Google play is already offering refunds
How many servers are actually playing act of war pt2? What countrys and states?
Because the one I'm one isn't up. No event
I'm in the US midwest
Everyone but North America I think
@delicate sentinel can you please relay to devs: The popup solution in this game is awful. For example:
This is a totally redundant message which just clutters the screen. Everyone can see that the cargo of the ship is full by just glancing at the ship icon
<@&509691205798592532> Found this in a chat... while I completely understand the move from a business standpoint itβs still kind of hard to swallow that all I would need to do I make videos to get free stuff, instead of grinding & investing time like all the normal players
With this Prices you must do 17.7 days the Solo Event to get One ship..... If the event is only 7 days you need a total of 3 event to get 1 ship by grinding 18 of 21 days
YOU MEAN THAT Real?
puts β in the chan to lure @tepid nimbus
sorry, but the emoji vendor has no latte
Right - Influencer program is out of my scope - However this is how it works in the video game industry - I understand it can be annoying and frustrating, yet producing videos for YouTube/Stream is hard. It's not as easy as we may think (and I know a little bit about it, I'm an ex twitcher). Influencers gives a lot of their time producing videos/talking about games/showcasing /recording/editing - I understand the frustration, I can hear it. I would advice you to poke Panic who is more in charge of it than me.
@tepid nimbus ex-twitch eh? did your last session look like one of those 'omg someone donated a massive amount' video's ? π
No lol - It was more just me screaming in horror at my screen π
using twitch as a digital mirror... you are a strange person π
I used to work for horror games!
resident evil !
Yaz
didn't play the game, but surely saw all movies
ahem Anyway! Back on Star Trek π Wrong channel to talk about that
back to #π-galaxy-chat
@tepid nimbus can I ask your honest opinion about why a lot of big players are quitting Star Trek right now?
And all the payment boycotts
Don't expect to get real answers there
why do level 24's get 3* survey parts as rewards when we can't get a 3* survey ship until level 26?
I'm getting two star survey parts and I'm only level 14. It's based on what system you go to and the level of the hostiles there.
North Star and Botany Bay use 3 star survey parts.
Panic will panic in the morning lmao poor panic I feel kinda bad for him.
nah he''l probably just read 3 comments and say "yep, same as always"
Who can I report to for extreme indecency
There is a player on my sever harrassing other players talking about child molestation and using date rape
On my one moment.. @delicate sentinel @nova sierra
Very very disturbing, please take a screen shot of it and player name if possible. Very ugh...
Where do u want me to post it here?
And directly report in game if possible, hopefully panic or John will provide follow up
@ebon plover
Hey, make a ticket in-game with screenshots + send me the screenshots and your playerID
I sent the mail all ready I'll reply to it my game tag is the same as here I'm in sick alliance

@charred spire You did great!
@ebon plover Good, last step is to PM me the details and your playerID please. π
@ebon plover Sent you one
So Hijacked ship blueprints are not compatible with regular D3/Payflower/Legionary blueprints. What a scam. You were aftraid people could actually accumulate all the blueprints for free with previous D3/MF/Legio events? So you released a ship skin as a new full ship and people can start collecting bp's again.. Not even new ships, just skins, that's how lazy you are Scopely. I guess when people collect 31/80 bp's from this event, then maybe there will be some ranked augment event giving bp's for first 3 ranks and then you'll make another re-skinned variations again.. The Hijacked ships should accept regular D3/MF/Legio blueprints and you just pick what version you build.
I ONLY have to kill 126,000 ships for THE FIRST REWARD?!?! this IS a joke, right?
@potent spear It's points per damage done, not points per ship killed..
Your cargo bay is full.
@nova sierra is there any benefit to promoting this game on YouTube???
There probably are, just like I'd expect there'd be downsides. Try asking the <@&509691611903426561> to see if they can share anything in their experience.
Whats going on everybody
@spare comet honestly it has its ups and downs, but at the end of the day theres nothing that brings me more joy than holding a live stream and geeking out about star trek and this game with my subs!
@spare comet agree with @eager stratus...ups and downs
@delicate sentinel seriously scopely more does the support not have an answer ?! I feel like a real riff on a prime customer right now π‘π‘π‘π‘
A player level 24 must pay for 1 million trit Token 4320 event Token a player level 25 pays for exactly the same 1 million tritanium only 3400 envent token. Why
#UnBanDarthDumbass!
@brassman the Botany bay uses 3 star survey parts at higher tiers
@delicate sentinel @tepid nimbus , for the love of god, would you please have your devβs change the βReached Cargo Limitβ function in the code. Really, it comes down to this.
- Nobody needs perpetual notifications for reaching Cargo Limit
- The only real notification/indicator people are looking for is Over Protected Cargo Limit
- We already have a Reached Cargo Limit indicator on our ships
- If you have the toaster notification show up, for goodness sake, do it ONCE. Having it trigger every 1-2 seconds is just plan crazy and is actually poor design because it creates a lot of unnecessary work.
@faint gate One of your ships has reached cargo capacity.
This has been raises as a nuisance multiple times.... the bigger you get, the more of an issue this becomes π€£
@nova sierra I agree completely. Why this is such a hard change to make boggles my mind. The code should be fairly simple to fix this behavior. During events like this, where you are doing straight grinding, this issue gets amplified more than say just a normal day in-game.
We need to ability to toggle notifications on/off like other games. Give the user the choice of what notifications they want to see
@solid elk So overall from what I've been told, for higher levels this will change
In the event starting in 15 mins?
<@&509690795536941056> WTF is this? Donate $900 of Dil to a mission? Where is the "F u and your family I'd rather obliterate your entire solar system" button? The "Later" one isn't sufficient to illustrate the level of "HELL NO" response this insane quest deserves.
What are the rewards @storm hornet ?
Feedback to Scopely, you are terrible people and your cash cow game is terrible. I feel bad for the folks to worked hard on a flawed game designed to scam people.
@nova sierra roughly 10 rare and 40 UC ore. So $50 of stuff. Only a complete moron would do this quest.
Umm, I think I did π
If you're on a server that gives Dil like candy then it's not the same
This is either $900 or 15 years of mining on my server
So it's basically a big F U quest.
I did have a choice. I chose the rewards I'd prefer, with zero info about the price of paying the guy off.
Then the game says "ha ha you stupid idiot" and gives me the finger.
What is with the multiple iOS updates over the past week? Bug in version checking? Had my third since the faction store changes today.
It would be a nice feature to say, trade an envoy build for 1 horizon print
And so on...
@storm hornet this matches with the overall parasitic behavior of scopely, much like in game exchanges of lat for something like common minerals or ship parts, or placing the instant ship repair right under Repair with no "Are you sure?" prompt... They try to pray on lack of knowledge and accidents. I would hate to know how many times I overpaid in lat for an immediate mineral purchase before I came to realize that the exchange rate is not the same when making a larger purchase, and have accidentally clicked instant repair more times than I would like to admit when again, the actual lat/hour purchase of speed ups will end up costing SIGNIFICANTLY less than if you were to choose instant repair. It's asinine and preys on people <@&509690795536941056>
Make a direct exchange system in store, x amount of lat for x amount of materials, and only allow those sorts of exchanges to take place where you can directly see how the ratio varies as you increase the amount of lat for each 'level', ie 100 lat/200 ship parts, 500 lat, 1500 ship parts. At least advertising it side by side will feel less scummy.
But then you wouldnt be able to buy 2k ship xp for 300 lat and 50k ship xp for 600 lat
That's not what I'm saying, I'm saying just have a "marketplace" where you see direct side by side comparisons of ROI
I agree it is very unbalanced forcing more costs for less
If I can upgrade smaller ships it costs substantially more than upgrading larger ships
FYI, Scopely: If you want me to spend money to get a new ship, you had darn well better give me some hope that I can upgrade it within the estimated lifespan of the universe.
The refinery and miserly events give no such hope.
Every time you offer faction ships for sale you reinforce the idea that you will never let me have enough g3 uncommon to upgrade them.
If you offered the ships during an event that gave plenty of UC rss you would find people like myself far more amenable to spending money for a new ship.
As things stand now, however - there is no way in hell I'm buying a ship I can't use.
@delicate sentinel I'm a level 18... Why are there no blueprints for me in the event store? Would be nice to at least see Northstar bps. Will that happen?
@storm hornet I'm guessing any mission where your given the option to kill something or help someone else, just go for the kill?
Usually I choose whatever option gives the best rewards. Kill children? Fine, if the price is right. I don't know or care what the storyline is, I only care about the rewards.
But in this case the "bribe the guy" reward means I get completely screwed.
I should have killed him for terrible rewards, it would have been a net win.
Now apparently I'm locked out of the option to kill the stupid NPC which is the fate he deserves simply for asking for $900.
How come when people buy stuff scopley don't give what is in the packs they are selling
I just tried to use a 1m dilithium chip. The chip went away but I wasn't given the dilithium.
@deft nacelle raise an in game support case
They only give 100k dil. There are no 1m dil chips. Says so in thΓ© description
This Act of War event needs to allow individual award ranking to be based on a group level not server wide. Why partake in a event when the whales always and easily win. There is no challenge for them, yet a low level player stands absolutely no chance to ever place in top 25. There is no incentives to be a part of it. ALSO, really the token rewards.... to say the least are absolutely PITIFUL. one 3* ore, cry, gas for 960 tokens... Really.. ONLY 1? Screw this game and the gouging greedy pricks at Scopely. I would not mind donating some of my cash if the ROI was even slightly appropriate, but ROI is in the deep deep negatives. No money from my pockets EVER will be donated to these idiots.... period ever again.
@hallow pumice Not always best to choose the kill option. My conscience wouldn't let me jettison a hold-full off tribbles on a planet, so I chose to fight. Here's what I got
@wheat oak less powerful than the separatists bosses π
lol yeah but it's not armed with a peashooter
hehe how far do you get with Bortas/Saladin on him? Or did you not try yet?
Question... @delicate sentinel @tepid nimbus is scopley going to answer to the creators of hive mind? Especially since Scotty Workshop was closed down . Also we have heard one side of the story. This is extremly concerning that pleasyers could DOXX them.
