[craggy egret]

If you’re going to give us a gift or compensation, how about giving us something actually worthwhile? Uncommon armada credits are worthless and a slap in the face.

[unique oak]

@twilit mango happy with the compensation. Makes it doable for us to clear the rare armada ticket event since most of us who chose it didn't realize it needed 50 directives. 👍

[wraith tulip]

New blue bullet visualization is broken. Tried it on both an Augur and Gladius and all it does is make the original shots invisible. Do you guys even test this stuff before releasing it??

[craggy egret]

@wraith tulip they do not, WE are the testers.

[gentle kayak]

Anyone else NOT seeing the new projectile colours in the dog fight animations?

[ember cairn]

I got a new suggestion for Scopely: be transparent..... "Significantly' might mean something different to different people, just state the percentages or by what value, this cloak and dagger stuff really frustrates me

[dark nest]

I’m sure this has been fed back multiple times, but if you are killing level 37+ hostiles, there is really no need for Vahk or Kehra blueprints to drop. Would be better to give nothing

[high igloo]

Why are worms different types of ships? that makes no sense to me. They're WORMS

[lapis terrace]

because why not

worms are different

[cunning ocean]

Hi lvl 30 since maintenance last few days multiple problems from game drop out to moving into different sectors to targeting hostiles may be more not sure until the appear tried turning off phone and reboot still happening

[cyan marsh]

Events designed around people buying packs to even complete has a detrimental effect on your customers opinion on the game, stop doing that. You guys seem to try it at the start of every arc lately. Really stop doing that... Bought packs should help on progress, not be essential to content.

[wise shadow]

Did game go down can’t get on?

[restive tundra]

Just unlocked the Blue Bullets skin, none of my ships have any weapon animation now during battle when that skin is equipped. Tried on a Bortas and baby Jellyfish.

[true ingot]

Fix the blue bullets kkthx bye

[stiff perch]

Last arc Ticket Events were amazing. This time it’s just a waste of ressourcres and Lat, additionally to a nearly impossible alliance milestone connected with them. Bummer.

[true ingot]

Tying the participation in ticketed events to alliance milestone event just killed every alliance that isn’t full of spenders. That’s demotivational to all the targets... I mean other players on the server. When a server has only one slender alliance left they will quit.

[rich belfry]

can someone tell me ... what the skin can do? ... graphically nothing happens ... and there are no buff's ... so ... what is that for

[onyx dock]

When you zoom in in a system, to the point where you can see your ship's 3d model - it should so you that it is firing blue missiles.

[azure ibex]

Has anyone noticed the blue weapons dont fire in the animation?

[river turtle]

Bought the tickets pack last arc when events were easy to finish with nice rewards. Now you try to double gate the events 1) use tickets I payed for 2) use armada dircectes for rares/epic which can only be bought in sufficient amounts... Not getting any money out of me this arc, well done

[proud scarab]

Is there any way to get around Support-„Agnes“? The only 2 sentences she knows are „send a screenshot“ and „I will forward it“. Never ever ANY useful information or support from here! I am Writing english now in the hope to get away from here, but she still intervenes 😡
Guess how I got Level 44 now - certainly NOT but waiting 😏. Is that the way to handle big-rollers?

[nova sierra]

Maybe cos some of the worms identify as different types of ships. Scopely is light years ahead of the curve.

[worthy kraken]

$copely, That's not a Bomber...

[high igloo]

@nova sierra 1) light year is a unit of distance not a unit of time. 2) bringing this to a lgtbq+ joke is insensitive and rude, however not surprising coming from you.

[rich belfry]

@onyx dock yes ... I agree with you ... beautiful blue torpedoes ... when zooming in .... if I continue to zoom ... I'm on the ... circuit board ...😂

[nova sierra]

You can quite clearly see from the entire message it was a joke. I give up with you, you just clearly want an argument constantly and are looking to be offended.

[high igloo]

Aren't jokes supposed to be funny?

[azure ibex]

This are the new cloaked torpedoes.. latest tech 😄

[versed brook]

Before blue Torpedos

After blue Torpedos 😩😳🙈

[robust helm]

Too many auctions... Look at the current arc for example... Introducing ship Skins and weapon colours as a key feature but auctioning off to a handful of people... We need more milestone events where we are sure to be rewarded and rewarded something good.

[hardy socket]

Some humans are built more stalky and use that to their advantage in a fight, others are smaller and quick and use that to their advantage in a fight, can’t the worms be of similar differentiating builds? So, @nova sierra ‘s comment has merit outside of the LGBTQ+ community, some identify as a beefier fighters (perhaps battleships), others are quick and agile (interceptors), and others use their brains more (I dunno, so they’re explorers). Ever see The Princess Bride, the three fights he must go through after climbing the cliffs - agility, brawn, and brains.

[nova sierra]

@hardy socket

[nova sierra]

I laughed

[cyan marsh]

Simple rule: do not monetize things people can do in the game like events, missions, pvp and other forms of in game interactions. This keeps people in the game and might draw people in. This is what i call content, no content should be behind a paywall (at least in games) if the main businessmodel is micro transactions.

What you can and should monetize is stuff that helps people speed up what they do or can achieve in game, extra rewards (ie. Battlepass), esthetics and other genius means of making money that does not keep users away from content.

Fire the guy that keeps coming up with ideas to monetize content 😉😛

[fervent goblet]

No those are the guys that get promoted!

[nova bear]

Server 18 is a ghost town please merge us

[mint sky]

😂

[high igloo]

@hardy socket that's not the point though... Why battleSHIP, intercepter, and explorer? Those literally define ships not worms

[hardy socket]

Perhaps they’re analogies of work types to this universe’s ship types.
If you don’t like it, don use the triangle to your advantage.

[high igloo]

Kdr is completely useless and calculated based on two different sets of data rendering it meaningless. Either reset kdr or get rid of it

Kdr used to include all base hits, and it was never reset after it stopped including them.

@hardy socket I'm not saying I don't like it dude, I'm just saying it doesn't make sense for worms to be warships

[slender fulcrum]

Can anybody explain me why Explorer/interceptor can do the research 4 time and battleship only 2 times? Scopely logic?

[rough dagger]

Why can I nor compete with people in my level range? + - 1 why it it always 4 to 16 levels above?

[muted karma]

how come you have to find the plans for a ship again after you already build it?

[jolly pelican]

@muted karma the same reason there is no trading system in the game. They want people to buy packs.

[elder depot]

Looking for my admiral honey bucket or commander kelp

[nova sierra]

@twilit mango thank you to you and your team .
The android general public track beta has been running perfectly for me here !!! 13/03/21.
2hrs + running without memory leak.

[chrome vortex]

I noticed in my faction store I can only see ships I can build. F for Marketing 101. People always want what is out of reach.

[muted karma]

lol duhh. makes sense.

thanks

[nova sierra]

Please move REFIT BUTTION. So many accidental mstaps from just me........
It's in the way on my mobile.... [ public beta public track client]. just loaded on bluestacks --- the bloody button is still where I'd imagine the SWAP SHIP button to be.
similar thing to the /avatar LHS on HUD /toast banners, you only have to look at places nearby and it activates
TIA

[high igloo]

@nova sierra at least it doesn't cost lat 😂 but I agree

[sullen pier]

@nova bear hahaha...i feel your pain

[elder ocean]

Why is maths so hard

[mild hemlock]

@elder ocean it’s less than half an hour and thus rounded down.

[covert cypress]

Could you make the prime pvp pack grindable already?

[delicate jewel]

<@&509691205798592532> can anyone explain me why and why unannounced yesterday events have ended one hour earlier? There is no reason, summer time is still not in effect! I've lost the opportunity to complete yesterday event for bp, ranking in slb event and more importantly the whole heroic bp arc event is list due to this!
These events were supposed to end at 18.00 cet today! Not 17.00!

[grand rose]

I am once again asking that this unused space, be used for shield activation notices, among other things. I was vaulted AGAIN an hour after I put up a 12hr shield. <@&509691205798592532>

[unique glen]

It's due to the clock change in the US. Europe will change in a couple of weeks I think. But the US already has and events are scheduled in the US

[unique glen]

We always recommend that after placing a shield that you open a chest or kill a hostile or whatever to ensure your client is synced with the server. If you feel something is hinky you need to create a ticket with CS 🖖

[surreal condor]

parts of the US 🤣

[unique glen]

Sorry, you lot aren't really an amorphous blob are you

[surreal condor]

Some of us don't mess around with clocks. 🤣

[unique glen]

Which timezone has?

[surreal condor]

It's by state, not time zone. Several opted out.

[unique glen]

By state? That must be chaotic 😬

[surreal condor]

California voted it out but hasn't implemented it yet.

Arizona hasn't followed it since the 60s 🤣

[unique glen]

But you still have Pacific time and mountain time etc etc right? So did all of those zones change at the same time?

[surreal condor]

North America does all at once, where it applies.

[grand rose]

I did, when it happened last week. I was told that I did not have a shield in place, when I know I did. The unused section of the battlelog would, in my opinion, settle the question of a shield being set or not, rather than submitting a ticket.

[unique glen]

I would agree but a ticket is a good starting point for getting that feedback to devs

[delicate jewel]

This is unacceptable, i should get bp compensation for this. I've planned to do the event in time but was forcefully denied to do it

[unique glen]

Was there not a timer on the event?

[delicate jewel]

As every day so one stops recounting in trust that the events do end at 18.00, because no other change of time has been announced nor in game, nor from scopely discord announcements

We have real life, families, so we plan to do events as we can , but such stab in the back?

[unique glen]

This happens twice a year, every year. If I was investing heavily in an event I'd be damn sure I checked the timing 🤷‍♀️

[delicate jewel]

I haven't invested, i was planning to do it in time. I'm playing in European sever, not us, if scopely wants to run game for Europe, they need to respect these times as well. Only some countries will go for cest time, and that will be in next few weeks

This was the clear coast event

[high igloo]

@delicate jewel I agree with you

Communication is key, scopley needs to clearly lay out how time changes will work and affect the players

[slow mirage]

Make data mines easier to see. A simple fix like making thicker outlines and a more vibrant color

It's difficult to see where the data mines are most times

I had to zoom in to be able to see the mines

[ebon geyser]

Why did scopely take the 4* faction ships out of the faction store for under ops 39? I’m almost to admired where I could acquire the bchor prints but nowhere near ops 39. So I just wasted time grinding out rep because they changed the rules again.

This is what my faction store looks like now. Super lame.

[mild basin]

So i had just lvl upped ops 27 and showed this... would i be getting this for the rest of the bp???

[warm plover]

We're still missing consistent mechanisms to earn 1) Ship Exp 2) Officer Exp
I'd like a credit system, event, or faction store that specializes in providing relevant amounts

[zealous panther]

Agreed

[paper sluice]

Please bring back the option in the Faction stores to see (and buy if Reputation is at level) higher level ships like Hydra, Newton and so on. I can receive Blueprints on several ways like loot chest from hostiles, event rewards (e.g. Jellyfisch) and alliance chest before i can build it but can not buy the bps in preparation in faction store anymore? That doesn't make sense and is not consistent if you look at the Jellyfisch auction-event and alliance chests.

[high yew]

Hi guys Think it's about time the territory system is altered the medium sized alliances can't take part because of the 3 biggest alliances dictating who is allowed to takeover the remaining few territorys .Also your marketing strategy needs looking at in these times people can't afford the big spends smaller ones would bring in a 27% increase in revenue

[red rampart]

@warm plover , Officer XP isn't hard to earn. Uncommon Armada credits, maxxed common/uncomon recruits, many station/research daily events etc. Ship XP is harder but even there Uncommon Armada Credits and the Disco refinery are your friends.

[warm plover]

It's still my suggestion. When you're higher level, 500k+ per level is painful on lat. I'd prefer a more natural system

[muted karma]

why is it that the dry docks have space for 5 ships but you can only dock one at a time per dock?

[tranquil cape]

The report button in game needs to work. Tired of all the gay bashing being allowed to run rampant. Can't even roper via email because the email is full. Have tons of screenshots and Scopely don't care.

[delicate jewel]

<@&509691205798592532> By the way, the THREAT FROM BEYOND event STILL ends in 18.00 CET .... so ?

[crude sandal]

You realise the timers on the events are visible for the entire 24 hours (give or take)... is that not enough warning?

And as to DST... Iceland doesn't have it at all, last I checked, so how would you like it to work for them? When we start talking about 'respecting' it 🤣

[delicate jewel]

actually not, re-counting every day seems to me odd, in addition to the chaos where it is being said that US summer time chnaged the clocks, but Threat from beoynd that has started AFTER the Clear the Coast event, is STILL ending at 18.00...

[delicate jewel]

Its not me who put the summer time reason 😉, moderators have responded this way

[crude sandal]

Yes, but that is why the times change subtly twice a year?

[delicate jewel]

Yes, in a FEW WEEKS from now 🙂

[crude sandal]

Not for the US

[delicate jewel]

IN EUROPE, running game on EU servers, not US 😉

[crude sandal]

yeah, suck it up, it'll all be back to the normal times in a couple of weeks

Although, I do believe there was a vote to scrap DST for EU members (2019ish), that comes into effect this year?

So who knows what effect that will have!

[delicate jewel]

yeah, again... suck it up... its all over again, scopely does soomething and we, players, have to "suck it up" ... how mature and responsible is that.

[crude sandal]

It's a game, stuff happens, it's really not that important

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5wpm-gesOY

And I will never rag on a developer for getting it wrong for something as inconsequential as a game... because it is such a pain 🙂

[delicate jewel]

@crude sandal this is not about time zone change at all.
Look at daily events, they still end at 18.00! But the 2 days old event clear the coast ended unexpectedly at 17.00 so why?

[crude sandal]

Because the event schedules are different

The ones that run every day, every week, and on the set 11 day ish cycle, just stay put

The ones that, I get the impression, are queued manually some how by Events Guy... those are the ones that change

Whether it's because of their input method "Run at this time, till this time - oh whoops, DST gets in the way" or what, I don't know

[delicate jewel]

But moderators said events have changed because of time summer time change, but that is not true! Other events run still the same times. And that has not been communicated

[crude sandal]

You'd need OldMan or someone from that end to say for certain, but I'd be happy to put money on it being the way they're scheduled, and whatever time is input is being stored in a way that's sensitive to DST

So, if at the start of an arc, they queue up the 3-4 weeks of events, and say for each of them "Run from 5pm, until 5pm the next day", and DST cuts in part way through - those times shift

I've seen that happen on appointment / classroom booking systems, and it is thoroughly unpretty when someone like Wethersppons or Thomas Cook sends a few hundred attendees to a training session an hour later than they were expecting

The ones that happen no matter what, and don't change month to month (dailies, and weeklys) - don't change, for whatever reason

And, it is the same, twice a year 🙂

[delicate jewel]

I bet they communicate first so that attendees arrive at the correct time, i suppose? 🍺🖖

[crude sandal]

Sadly not 😂

[deft kayak]

If Cosmic Cleanup isn't going to run during this arc, please at least put the Sarc blueprints into the event store! Max 20 or whatever, just put them in. It's frustrating, and cruel, to have had 3 weeks with them available, and then just yank it for a month.

[nova sierra]

Why can’t you see inside your own territory that your alliance owns unless you have a ship in it? Stupid.

[delicate jewel]

its the concept of territory unfortunatelly, Buglagely has chosen DarkSpace systems -like for it.

[quaint girder]

Has anyone heard updates about the 7-day token rollout? I know newer servers are getting it, hoping some of the older servers do to (I’m in APAC-197)

[delicate jewel]

The photon token?

[obsidian viper]

Server mergers. Ty. Can't wait

[final lotus]

I was thinking it might be a good idea if we could sell our seldom used ships to our alliance members. Does anyone else feel this would be a good idea?

[deft kayak]

there has been a "black market" conecpt on the roadmap for at least 6 months for selling/trading ship bps. Hasn't been mentioned in a while, though.

[sage venture]

Achieving Rogue Faction reputation- Partner feels like a punishment, not an achievement. Everything costs a lot more, small increase in payouts, and absolutely nothing new is unlocked—you’d do better to have never reached it.

[faint ridge]

Has the discovery recruit chest timed out? Disappeared from the recruit tab

[quick coral]

<@&509690795536941056> what is up with the Discovery Recruit option in the officers tab?

[slender fulcrum]

Where are the Discovery Officers?

[quaint girder]

The token for daily rewards. You do your dailies, get tokens for the 7 day reward. 4x 7 day rewards gets you the 30 day reward.

[high igloo]

Bring back discovery crew

[slender fulcrum]

Bring Discovery Crew back AND in Event Shop

[onyx dock]

@slender fulcrum @high igloo @quick coral @faint ridge There will be a limited time promotion for St Patrick's day. The bundle will be available again tomorrow @ 9 am PST

[brisk nymph]

Care less about some St Patrick day money grab, bring back Discovery Crew.

[onyx dock]

Again, that's tomorrow. The currency for the pack stays the same as far as I'm aware.

[high igloo]

Why is that necessary

[timid heart]

@onyx dock will there be skins made for other ships?

[onyx dock]

I would like to think so but don't know anything concrete.

[quick coral]

@onyx dock the communication from scopely could be GREATLY improved then....

[timid heart]

Boo ok. Fingers crossed they do.

[onyx dock]

I'm just a chat volunteer and things are improving but can't spoil all the things (NDA).

Keep an eye out for any CMs or Devs on Discord and ask them 😁

[quick coral]

Not shooting the messenger. Just saying... scopely could do a better job letting us know what is going on.

[vale cairn]

Wtf happened to discovery recruits? I had enough tokens for 10 boxes

[slow needle]

Yes they could have dropped a news bit on the disco recruot and not freak players out. Lots of players dont check here

[balmy flame]

Is Lorca going to be added to the disco recruit too?

[delicate jewel]

On our server 133 we have that from beginning. We are more waiting for the Photon token, if Buglagely will even implement it for our server

[delicate jewel]

this totally depends on the player level. tll 25 its doable, then, its just one meg of xp after another, enourmous values. Ppl are throwing all the have and it is in a fraction not simply not enough.

[red rampart]

@delicate jewel , I was slowed for a bit because I couldn't promote officers due to lack of credits/badges. Solved that problem by triple Faction lock. I simple avoid leveling/promoting Officers unless there is a relevant event.

[steady bobcat]

Likewise, i have to get faction recruit tokens (6000 per day each faction) to get enough officer xp to do domination each time its up.
So i save them for officer recruit events.

Benifit of doing this is loads of transporter patterns

[delicate jewel]

Yes, of course but not many players have this triple lock. In addition officer xp is not gained from event store

[zinc salmon]

Regarding the announcement in #⭐-official-announcements , do the TC times really need "fixing"? What I hear, both in my alliance and from others, is that the new times are generally better, because they are later in the day and more people can take part. The new TC times don't conflict as much with the work day.

[slow needle]

Depends which coast your on

[lucid zodiac]

Travel times are brutal!
Ships spend so long in warp that my phone forgets my Google Play login info. 😒

[mint sky]

Make CUSTOMIZABLE SKINS, not just general ToS and other stuff.. Let us make our own skin, color, size, nacells, warp, colors. PLEASE DONT DO AN AUCTION!! it's hard to do..

[elder ocean]

Please adjust the refinery - its terrible and has been since I started playing 2 years ago - the amount that it produces is pathetic! Also please add a remove banner in user settings, and fix whatever you have broken in the officers tab. @delicate sentinel

[slow needle]

What you dont like waiting 45 weeks to update a part on a sally, well if you dont like you pull out your wallet and drop 900 dollars for that part

And they call golf a rich mans game, lol

[mild kettle]

What happened to the Klingon miner B’Chor that was in the Klingon Store? It has disappeared. I bought several bps for that thing now it’s gone. Is it coming back?

[slow needle]

Seems scopely is cracking down on players skipping ship not like we dont have enough to spend mats on.

[mild kettle]

Could I get my Klingon credits back?

[elder ocean]

Whats the point of research if it doesn't so what it supposed too?

after the research

[halcyon frigate]

🤣

[tight flower]

the race specific ones act as a rebate they work you just don't see it on the front end but it takes less than it shows

[hardy socket]

yup, and it's really annoying because if you're trying to push for the daily rep event you think something will top you off but it doesn't, god forbid $copely does proper math and show us

[tight flower]

[nova sierra]

I like the design of the St. Patrick's event. It'd be even more fun if you could get the Star Trek Trivia right next time, messing up on the first question is a bit .... meh.

[red rampart]

Great event. Drop the carousel. Scrolling to find the current question is STUPID.

[exotic cloak]

Tos scotty has too many fingers

[wary edge]

Got a new portrait view today, did you plan this??? <@&509690795536941056>

[nova sierra]

<@&509690795536941056> <@&509691205798592532> I’m tagging you in purely because this Facebook malarkey is really starting to grind my gears. Your kobyashi maru game that you ran was only available to people who have Facebook. Now I just got asked to vote on my fave character and surprise surprise it took me to Facebook where I can’t vote unless I have an account. Could you please spare a thought for those of us that don’t have social media?

[delicate jewel]

I can adhere to that. I dont have facebook either. Why you can't run the poll questionaire as you used to for game feedback?

[timid heart]

They want to own you, they need your personal info for that

[nova sierra]

Scopleys already got the community by the short and curlys makes sense they would partner with FB 😂

[nova sierra]

Exactly

[timid heart]

The rich help the rich get more rich?

[surreal condor]

The CMs are off today (holiday in Europe - again). But I'll relay this concern when they're back online.

[timid heart]

Could they turn the st Patrick's day event into a chest instead?

[nova sierra]

Appreciate that Jess. Your one of the good ones 😂👍🏽👊🏽

[red rampart]

@nova sierra , I agree. I have Facebook but am currently in exile so I can't vote in the poll. That means I have ZERO chance to win shards.

[oblique relic]

Given Question 20 involves the pipes and ducts in a starship... I'm a little confused why 'pipes' is ****'d out in in-game chat... its bizarre!

[potent silo]

Swear word in french 🤷

[oblique relic]

that seems strange... since in French, 'la pipe' is a smoker's pipe... oh well

[potent silo]

It s also slang for a bj 😅

[oblique relic]

heh... whatever... if they took that to logical extremes of banning anything and everything that might be considered rude slang, swear word, whatever... chat would eventually become a long list of asterisks as language changes....

[potent silo]

It s a multilanguage game, they are blocking already lot of words because they are swear in one language 🤷

[plain palm]

So does anyone know why the sarcophagus ship's special ability during territory captures when on a capture node has dropped from 800000% to 1300%? Plus it doesn't affect everyone

[chrome vortex]

<@&509690795536941056> I tried to vote for my favorite character but couldn't. I will not join facebook.

[nova sierra]

Can we please clear our item inventory of all the useless event items we will never use again? I still have items from the borg arc and various other miscellaneous things that will never go away. Allow us to trade them in for tokens for the event store or something.

[dusk ledge]

In the first month I did not know how to spend them and did not know how to go to event store so I also have some in my inventory.. 🙄

[nova sierra]

The St Patrick’s event is very good, even if 20 questions is too long. Hope to see such a knowledge event more often (special dates for Star Trek ?)

[delicate jewel]

Thank you for the st Patrick event. Though lags in getting next questions was present. But besides of that very good! <@&509690795536941056> <@&509691205798592532>

[dusk ledge]

Its to easy ! Mine 1 , kill one . .. mine 1000 , kill 50 so you have to do something for the loot. And reward something great for your time spend

[tight flower]

the trivia was the point not the rewards or the mining

[golden copper]

It unfair to those who don't have a social made account. , like I have one , but they should give a change to the who gave not got one by like some one said vote on the game

[tight flower]

It's free advertising for them that's why.

[olive wraith]

did scopely delete a zoom level in system view???? <@&509691205798592532>

[compact crescent]

<@&509691205798592532> <@&509690795536941056>
I've been told there is no way to fix this,
Seems like it should be an easy fix. Due to a lag issue I clicked on the wrong Refit option. And now have 40 of BOP and TOS Ent. When I only have an Enterprise. I only buy battlepass and dumped all my Resources into these events, to have an issue an be told go win them again.....

[split smelt]

I find it pointless to have the "incoming attack" warning banner... considering that the banners all get backlogged in a glitch anyways. So when they all finally decide to flood through my game it is too little warning too late. Might want to either fix the banner problem or do away with them altogether. Because as they are they are a menace and an annoyance.

[zealous fable]

Can the cost:reward ratios in the Rogue store please get improved. I reached accomplice rank and the cost has gotten so high, that I’ve pretty much abandoned that whole line. It takes way too much grinding as you supposedly become better friends with the rogues

[dusk ledge]

I just lv up to trouble maker and my chest is from 2000 points for 70 credits to 4400 points for 80 credits
Btw I need 7 kumari runs for the 2k chest. And now ..? I don’t want to know how much repair and kumari ships I need for the 4.4K one 😅😫

[nova sierra]

Please for the love of all things holy stop doing maintenance during lat rush 🤣

[calm carbon]

Good morning! I was wondering if you could give us more events with an event store that let's us spent the battle points on ship blueprints like the Sarcophagus or faction ships outside of our current factions!? Please and thank you!

[frank arrow]

Heres some general feedback this arc and all the events apart from paddy's day have been utterly wank!! Thanks scopley im lv 41 played for 2 years getting bored and fed up its crap!! 🚑👍

[ember cairn]

Pls move the messages to a messages center (rename the inbox button in the inbox perhaps?), and have us be able to select what messages we want to see (i.e. progress in (rep) events, victory/defeat against hostiles, victory/defeat against players, station attacked.

Current banner setup is really annoying

[glass horizon]

Photon tokens ! All servers 🖖🏼

Obviously I did need to say more

Ok I’ll try again

Photon tokens ! All servers! Need I say more?

[ripe shore]

There is not one pack for sale that gives enough uncommon 3* materials to upgrade a single component on any of my ships. Not one So if I was interested in spending to get to the next tier, I would have to spend multiple of hundreds of dollars per component. That’s an insane cost to play. An epic ship upgrade pack should tier up a ship. It doesn’t even have enough for one component of a tier.

[slow needle]

900 dollars for one sally part, insane. It basically why bother spending

[hazy harbor]

Just want to express my utter disappointment in the photon pulse refit, equipped it on my vidar tonight and went from shooting big green balls to barely visible blue peas. I had to zoom in to check the ship was actually shooting. Utter disappointment in that animation.

[nova sierra]

LOSE THE CAP ON MYCELIUM REFINING. That is all.

[uneven lodge]

Wtf scopely? How is this fair? 🤬 🤬 🤬

[quick sonnet]

What is your server mate

[slow needle]

Same situation but ops 40 just opened, lb are pointless as are daily events

[delicate jewel]

Or ALB or CoW 😄

[delicate jewel]

Plus ALL READ button !!! even in CHAT system!

[nova sierra]

Concur, no scheduled Maintenance during major leaderboard events. Emergency maintenance with the event extended for the period of downtime is acceptable.

Mentioned lat rush because the last three scheduled maintenances were during lat rush.

[potent silo]

None of you saw that there no territory capture on Tuesday? To let space for the maintenance.....

If they move it another day so that you can have your latinium fix, it would clash with territory capture 🤷

[red rampart]

@nova sierra , scheduled maintenance (for patch) is ALWAYS on Tuesday. Arcs begin Tuesday at noon. IF they moved maintenance to Monday people would complain that it interferes with TFB and Anomalies. Be thankful that at least in the US, maintenance is overnight, so the effect on the players is minimized.

[nova sierra]

Which is always stupid since it’s always in the middle of an solo and alliance leaderboard event.

[nova sierra]

That’s a complete lie, I lose 3 or 4 hours of play that others don’t because I work a different schedule than them. It’s completely unfair and rigged.

I’ve lost several lat rushes simply because my opponents got an extra 3- 4 hours when I was asleep before maintenance and I lost that time during maintenance to regain my lead.

So again, if you’re going to interrupt leaderboard events you need to add that time back at the very least to the end of the event.

Plus there was no battlepass this time so no excuse to do it on Tuesday morning instead of Monday morning before lat rush.

SMH, I appreciate you expressing your point of view but can’t agree with your logic.

[potent silo]

Territory capture 😑^^

[nova sierra]

You could of done it today, yesterday, or tomorrow without a problem.

[potent silo]

..... Territory capture.......

The only day without territory capture is Tuesday

[nova sierra]

There are no territory captures are 9AM UTC

Try again 🤣

If you’re going to make excuses for Scopely being lazy at least make excuses that are rational.

[potent silo]

And how many time maintenance was delayed? Why we have a 8h ceasefire for one 1h main

Lol keep moaning for your Lat Monday event, I m sure 3h off for everyone is sooooo life changing. Bye bye 👋👋

[nova sierra]

There are no TC within 6 hours of 9AM UTC they have plenty of time plus there is nothing saying they couldn’t start earlier

9AM UTC is their choice

Again if you can’t make a rational excuse I can’t do anything except 🤣

Yes, losing 3 hours during a leaderboard event and rigging it is significant

Especially when it’s a monthly occursnce

No need to get slaty because you’re being irrational. We’re all irrational at times.

[nova sierra]

8 hour ceasefire has nothing to do with the length of the maintenance but the fact that people have to sleep and work.

[potent silo]

You know you are not the only one to exist 😂 maintenance is at 10 in EU. It clash with territory in every EU server. As timer for territory is different in EU APAC and US

[nova sierra]

EU has separate maintenance times. Try again, again. 🤣

[potent silo]

EU have different time...... You know. Something call timezone?

[nova sierra]

Yes, which is why EU maintenance isn’t at the same time or even the same day

Again be rational please thanks.

[potent silo]

In EU maintenence start at 10 in the morning. First capture start at 12, so right in the middle of maintenance. Except Tuesday as they deliberately clear that day from any capture

[nova sierra]

But again your maintenance isn’t the same day it’s the 29th not the 23rd

So again make sense you’re being irrational.

[potent silo]

I m irrational? You stating false fact and refuse to understand.

I have better to do of my day 👋👋

Oh and before I forgot. Scopely thanks to keep maintenance Tuesday during Lat rush so babies can keep being babies 👍👍😘

[nova sierra]

Only one of us is being rude and breaking the rules of decorum I’d like to point out. 👋 blocked and reported.

Ad hominem is the tool of the loser in a discussion. The fact still stands interrupting at least two leaderboard events (or more if there are other event leaderboards going on too) is intrinsically unfair and rigs the leaderboard in favor of some at the expense of others. Making the entire point of leaderboard events moot.

If you’re unable to accept that it’s fine, the facts don’t require you consent to be factual. No need to become abusive and immature because you can’t refute the facts.

Maintenance day predates origin space, it’s been a complaint myself and many others have made numerous times to Scopely and will continue to make. At the very least the event should be extended by the amount of the maintenance down time. Ideally Scopely would make policy changes to ensure no leaderboard events fall on Tuesday during scheduled maintenance time just like TCs. Either fix is simple and easy and restores some or all validity to these events. Nobody should lose a leaderboard they worked hard on simply because scopley denied them access to the game but not their competitors.

[red rampart]

@nova sierra , you're whining because 1 week a month (in most cases) you are inconvenienced on Lat Rush. Unless you're trying for SLB/ALB in it, the event takes less than an hour to complete (especially if you set up miners on big 3* mat nodes Monday morning.

For ALB, unless ALL of your Alliance is on YOUR work schedule, IF you're pulling the bulk of the weight, you need to consider finding a better group. You MIGHT have a point in SLB events (especially dailies) where due to timing you're negatively impacted on a 6hr event that begins at midnight EDT (you can't pump points at the end when you're on to win a event). SMS/AMS would be a similar situation, but in AMS everyone loses out so you're no worse off overall.

[nova sierra]

More ad hominem and more blocks and reports for breaking the rules of this forum. NP for me.

Just let’s me know the haters still can refute the facts

[red rampart]

As far as extending an event due to maintainence, that would require multiple versions of an event which leads to potential issues.

[nova sierra]

Leaderboard events don’t take one hour it’s a 24 hour event where ever second counts because highest score wins. You’re confusing SMS with SLB. ALBs are effected too but not AMS or AML because they cover several days not just one day.

[nova sierra]

No it just requires moving the end time up a couple hours not multiple events. That’s again just an irrational excuse to avoid admitting it’s rigged to schedule maintenance during SLBs and ALBs that only last one day.

Ceasefires after maintenance prove I’m right. If there was no long term effect on gameplay from maintenance there would be no need for an 8 hour ceasefire afterwards.

Scopley knows it’s unfair for one day SLBs and ALBs. Which is also why they don’t do TCs on Tuesday as the last person stated. They know they’re rigging numerous leaderboard events. They could easily fix it by again simply not doing the one day leaderboard events Monday into Tuesday, or if they refuse that partially rectify it by extending the SLBs and ALBs by the amount of time the maintenance lasted. Doesn’t fully rectify the situation but at least give them a fighting chance.

I’d like to point out another sign of someone that knows they’ve lost a discussion is making massive unfounded assumptions like my alliance can’t win a ALB without me and I need to find a new alliance. SMH

Ad hominem and gaslighting. #bebetter

[red rampart]

@nova sierra, look at the SLB events in the dailies. Most are 6 hrs (station/research/officer limited time events). That's the major case where maintenance affects you negatively.

Again, with ALB, IF you're in an active group, you should have enough other players on to cover the 3 hours you're not able to participate.

You think that Scopely needs to accommodate your needs rather than the majority of the players.

[nova sierra]

Scopely needs to accommodate everyone equally. I’m sorry if you’re too stubborn to admit that’s a valid point out whatever is driving you to be so obtuse.

Scopley shouldn’t be giving anyone an unfair advantage with their maintenance schedule which is why they don’t have TCs on Tuesday’s and shouldn’t have ALBs and SLB’s like lat rush or Crucible of War that end on Tuesday because of the server maintenance.

Again, the facts stand and neither of the abusive people so far has been able to refute the validity of said facts. Not feeding your negativity any further. You can’t have civil discussion so we can’t continue. You can believe what you wish and we will have to agree to disagree because I won’t stoop to your level and get nasty over a matter of fact you don’t like.

I’ll accept that the reactions to my first comment are enough evidence to show a lot more agree with me than you IMO.

[rich belfry]

Game Crash ... Game continues in the background .... no BL's received .... is that always the case now?! ... the 4th time in 2 weeks ...

[slender fulcrum]

When will be the Discovery Officers placed in the normal Token 'store' and Georgiou and 5/10 be available via transform patterns. The current state is a bad joke

[red rampart]

@nova sierra , I'll agree to no 6 hr daily SLB events that overlap with scheduled maintenance. That's easy enough to implement. Putting Latinum Rush on a different day as long as it doesn't conflict with other events is also workable. Altering event timers though may cause unforseen issues if players can game the timers (and we know it happens already in SLB events). What you have to understand is that from my POV, I'm generally not impacted by maintenance as I'm generally asleep. I also tend to shut the SLB events as they're geared towards people who can afford to dump cash into the game on a whim.

You want things to be fair for everyone, but none of what you advocate for helps the FtP or limited funds players. Come back with proposals that aren't tilted towards the Whales and we can talk.

[slow needle]

Sometime the scopely apologizist are too much, are they trolls or paid scopely employee, why defend something when there is no reason for it to happen.

[red rampart]

@slow needle , I'm not a Scopely apologist. What I don't accept are players who complain that things like routine maintenance are either

1. at a time inconvenient for their schedule

or

2. Impacts their play style.

I've played numerous mobile and MMO games with varying maintenance schedules. It's literally impossible to satisfy everyone. At least Scopely has listened and now routinely does 8hr ceasefire following maintenance. That wasn't the case when I started almost 2 years ago.

What I'd like to know is how many players attempt to place in virtually EVERY SLB event. I'm sorry, but a small number of players being inconvenienced for 1-2 events a month is worth the price of having game updates on a predictable basis.

[slow needle]

But why schedule it on an event that happens every weeks, it makes zero sense and just pisses people off, just cause scopely listened it the past doesnt mean they can do better now, but as long as ppl keep saying get over it, they wont

[shell thorn]

Are territories fair game as the rest of space

[potent silo]

Fair game? About what?

[shell thorn]

Opc

[potent silo]

Ask on your server discord, or your admiral. RoE is player made, you won't have answer here

[shell thorn]

Thanks

[red rampart]

@slow needle , the game has evolved since I started playing in July 2019. When I began there were no weekly events like TFB, Anomalous Phenomena, Latinum Rush etc. As we get more events (including TC) the schedule is going to fill up. At some point it becomes which event being affected by maintenance is the least disruptive to things overall. Before the D'vor research, Latinum Rush was a slog for me. Now it's typically something that takes about a hour to complete.

The key (at least IMO from a US server player) is that on US servers, the vast majority of the players are in time zones where maintenance is effectively overnight (some on East Coast will be up just before it ends while some on West Coast will be playing as maintenance is about to start, but that's a fraction of the overall player base).

I would suggest not having daily SLB events that overlap with maintenance, and possibly moving Latinum Rush to another day (IF there is one that doesn't have something else critical going on), but there aren't many other viable options.

[nova sierra]

increase the alliance boni when purchasing a pack. its a good feeling to help the peers, but a 5 minute repair boost isn't even noticeable for example. do relocation tokens and 1h shields instead of such a small and useless "help".
or maybe give them a random ressource token for their level.

even an alliance cluster pack might be a good idea. relocation token x2 for everyone to defend the systems.

i promise, people will feel better when spending their money. and happy spenders are good spenders.

[red rampart]

@nova sierra , 1 hr shields as an Alliance reward is a great idea. They're a tactical shield that's useful when setting up miners for dailies. In fact, I'd love to have them in the Alliance store to be purchased.

Ship XP as an Alliance gift for pack purchases would also be nice. Many of us have ships that are tiered but not leveled because we're not able to get ships to locations where they can grind xp at a decent rate.

[slow needle]

@nova sierra i think alot of reward are outdate and no ine has taken the time to look at them, they main concern seems to be the arc and not daily play, maybe they look a little closer after this snoozefest of an arc.

[nova sierra]

Photon tokens! All servers! 👍🏽

[tepid valve]

What happened to the Discovery Refinery?! My Disco is t6 and I’ve never seen such a poor pull for Recruit Tokens. My Disco was t4 for a long time before I recently tiered it up to t6, and I’ve never gotten less than 60 or so Recruit Tokens from a 6 chest pull. What’s going on here?!

[stiff perch]

Dear scopely, how about making it possible for players without territories to achieve somehow research gated behind owning territories? There are a lot of small alliances, that do not have the possibility at all, to proceed in the „territory“ tree at all. Especially since the majority of them is not related exclusively to Territories.

<@&509690795536941056> <@&509691205798592532>

How can this matter be addressed?

[hallow pumice]

You got a bunch of everything else, nothing has changed

A bunch of speed ups, a lot of minor commendations and spore drive parts

[wind nebula]

Can we not get @ everyone-d whenever you do blog post, that I don't think most of us care about? Im fine with maintainance mass pings, Im fine with "new update" mass pings, and tightly game-related stuff. This isn't.

I dont mind that stuff getting posted, but maybe without @ everyone would be nicer...

[rich belfry]

thanks scoply ... from ops40 there is little 3G for ship‘s and research !. there is more at ops39. thanks for the punishment ops 40. normal earner ... i have tons of 4g .. but without benefit .. have only epic 3g ... no JE lly .... update up to level 42 ... impossible .. for normal employees !. reset ops39 ... not possible ... swap 4g to 3g ... not possible ...., is the game still fun now? ... no .... So thank you for 2 years of loyal bonuses .... thx and by

[maiden viper]

Have alliance store, rare 6-chest pulls beem dumbed down or nerfed? Right after rare directives began being rewarded in events this last week ive done three 6-chezt pulls that I'd saved up and didn't get a single 34 ship bp. Normally, I'd have got at least 2. Rss and mats seem dilited, too.

[red rampart]

@maiden viper , I did a pair of 6x rare pulls last weekend. Got ops 34 ships each time. At least a week worth of speed ups, decent amount of epic directives and mats.

[honest wadi]

For the love of god fix your territory lag. You’ve made a butt load of money upgrade your GD servers and buy some more instead of throwing money into big wig pockets with bonuses

[frosty summit]

Now I don't wonder why the early baby-steps feel so wonky - cause you have a huge playerbase in the Millions of Power and care a * beep * about what happens below Ops20 🙄

[winged pike]

oops. Capture nodes in Fed area...

[molten hatch]

Still waiting for maintenance to finish. Must be using a microsoft timer to keep time.

[maiden coral]

Game is broken post maintenance.. at least make it playable if you want those packs sold

[nova sierra]

tbh, when i reached ops 19 i know why. everything below ops 20 is piece of cake. nobody raids your base because nobody has strong enough ships. its for learning the game and basic mechanics. stuff like mitigation and piercing get more important at higher levels when ships do multiple damage sources and get increased mitigation due to faction alignments.

yes, its stupid to get a mission at ops 18 to go and farm 10 crystal in a low area, because you already need refined crystal to even get there.

but you can reach ops 20 in a month as well. so it reallyis just a "short" tutorial 😄

[dreamy fable]

Another update and once again Scopley breaks the game

Currently getting no combat graphics

I will give Scopley credit though. This time they only broke half the game - the issue seems to be limited to iOS

[unique trench]

Why the change in faction rep at this point of the game? Played for years with it being what you need to do with your factions Always need to get your faction higher. I have done just that, and you have made a faction rep nothing more then a penalty I am at op35 about to be op36 in a few days and my fed rep is over 90mill and as a result my dailies have increased marking a few not even possible but I could manage them and WAS worth the impossible dailies Now since the update all the slight bonuses of “getting my faction rep up”are all gone and you have taken ALL the blue prints I had purchased too I am left with impossible dailies, zero rewards and even taken my earned blue prints as well. 15k in credits waisted smh.

At op35 and a fed rep of 90 mill I need to mine 65k of 4 star gas which I can’t reach (unless it is in territory) and even if I can mine it I can’t use it and I need to kill 25ea level 42 hostiles. Hmmm. but before update I could buy BPs for hydra (which I can’t build yet and kelvin which also can’t be built by me either. Also had better chests available Any perk I had for having a high faction rep has taken away along with my already purchased BPs Seems like scopley asking me to delete the app.... how can you validate such a basic rule of game play?

Such a change to basic game play? Rep means nothing now

[sleek cave]

The fact that you are ops 35 and 90mil fed rep is. Well insane. Or stupid

And. You still get the same creds etc. So you just have to wait till ops whatever to buy the bps

[tight flower]

and any Bp you already bought will still be there when you reach 39

[red rampart]

Going to be in a similar situation soon. Triple locked ATM. Feds and Roms are rapidly closing on 30m Rep. Will no longer be able to do mining dailies (ops 35 and no territory to use). I don't mind the challenge of whacking level 41's as my Bortas with PMC is an effective tank and in another month with a bit of luck I'll have my Enterprise.

Honestly Scopely needs to change the mining daily for Celebrated. It's incredibly easy to hit 30m rep well below ops 39 and having to rely on Territory access doesn't cut it. Make it 50k 3* mats and vastly improve the refinery.

[supple lotus]

I’m on server 33, I haven’t been able to log in for 8 hours. What’s the deal Scopely???!!! I did the update. My screen only says Scopely, seize the play. Doesn’t go anywhere from there

[thick silo]

a seriously stupid complaint I am sorry to say, thats much rep at ops 35s is rediculous more rep than any normal player would have, you grinded you rep so hard it now past your ability, which is very natural thing to do if you push something so hard.

The fact you have that much rep you can get BP for ships you can't even build yet coz you level is a statement in its own right.

You 2 option, either start leveling up and getting better ship, or invest some time in improving rep with another faction, this in turn will slowly lower your fed rep back to a point where you can actually do them again.

[unique trench]

What op are you and second of all I was asking why they changed the basic premise of having to grow rep since the beginning of the game if it is whining is what you need go in game

Just because you can’t do it or atleast never have tried you really don’t even have an opinion in my eyes

And I get my dailies done by the way too

But you did accidentally make my point though. Sooo I need to raise and lower rep so I can say I did it the way you did it Never in the years playing was it ever asked of me to lower my rep in game

[ember swallow]

When my base gets raided, I keep seeing the battle reports delaying a lot, and it takes awhile for the repairing button to be appeared. Is it normal? bug?

[hallow shadow]

In general, please, u already made some gamelifebalance improvements 👍 to continue this, pls pls pls 🙏 improve further.
For example :change the daily goals to weekly goals. Stack up goals and rewards!?
Don't tell me how long, do it fast 🙄🍺

Actually monthly would be even better 🙉

[nova sierra]

<@&509690795536941056> guess what I’m gonna say? ......................... nope I don’t want another ingame currency. Photon tokens! All servers 😘

[crude sandal]

Start killing Romulans, for a bit rather than farming Tygokor?

[crude sandal]

(isn't that another currency? 😇 )

[crude sandal]

And nobody asks you to raise it beyond your capabilities, either?
The point that I leveled my faction above the capability of my ships was the point I stopped, slowed down and went dual faction instead of single-fed... There's no need to buy the BPs before you can build the ships, there's no need to have the faction greater than 10m until you head for 39+, you can just save the credits till you need them...

[hallow shadow]

You are spamming general-feedback channel! No?

[crude sandal]

noo, I'm responding to people...

[nova sierra]

🤣

[crude sandal]

But I totally agree, I want photon tokens!

[thick silo]

I level 35 close to triple locking.

Fact your so high rep with one faction you should realised months ago the higher they rep you get, the harder the dailes got, but the bigger the payouts, tho not much bigger.

Most people around 35 are pushing to triple lock the 3 factions to 10 mill before pushing a single faction higher.

It's logical progression and self balancing as long as you think about what your doing.

[nova bear]

<@&509691205798592532> has there been any news or updates on server mergers? Server tokens to move to new servers?

[hard rampart]

The longer I play this game the worse it gets, lock ups, cache clearing, memory dumps and restarts, on average every 10 minutes, its hard to believe a game with so much cash, my alliance alone dumps over 40k a month into it, can run so shitty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[frank ingot]

well, that's the problem. why would they care if they still can get cash out of it, even with all the bugs and issues

[surreal condor]

There are 2 mergers going on as we speak: 2 servers in the US, 2 in Europe. That is all we have heard.

[thick silo]

because they keep adding content on top content, and device resource are getting tighter and tighter... ofc the dev could spend a lot more time optomising things, which imo i rather they did that throw out arcs all time.

[quick coral]

<@&509690795536941056> Any idea if refit tokens can be used in the future for different skins? Or are they a "use it or lose it" thing with TOS skins?

[kind fulcrum]

my ships come in to wait and at the end of the countdown, they stay out. it is not a novel of power. they are the novel, but they are out at the end. can you help?

[tight flower]

what?

[wind eagle]

the territory concept sucks really bad....you have 4 different particles... and only few big alliances on the server who take all the territory... where you as a mid size ally have no chance

so many on our server have quit the game because of this particles issue

it is extremely unfair concept to make money in the game 🙄

why don't you add more of the territory and make it easier for smaller players to enjoy the game rather than killing it 🤷‍♂️

[tranquil cradle]

<@&509690795536941056>

I'm (lvl.35) on one of the servers being merged and the quantum prep armadas event is an embarrassment. This event is virtually impossible for a free player to finish.

I have two choices to complete the event alliance contributions or run armadas.

alliance contributions cost 6.7B parsteel a day, we're on day #2.

My second option is to RUN 5 armadas a day. Armadas that scopley hands out at the feverish rate of one per week.

The event is broken and must be fixed. This server merge seems like more of a cash grab than an attempt to improve the game play.

EDIT

Apparently I didn't look at todays event details it's only damage to armadas today. Perhaps someone realized the issue already

[sharp relic]

You need a proof reader to weed out Mission plot inconsistencies. In the Mission titled "Regroup" my ship was in the Unroth system in Romulan space when Maia reported a Corvallen Warship emerging from warp nearby. Where was the Corvallen Warship to be found? It was two systems away in the H'Atoria system in Klingon space. That is not NEARBY! The planetary systems must all be light years apart.

[hard rampart]

Exactly! I have told them that at least 50 times, but they continue to add more bullshit

[tight drift]

you want some feedback, there's some damned feedback. It's ridiculous

[lyric fossil]

Your serves lag is ridiculous bad. You cant target all we would do is get hit. Fix it

[tight drift]

and you deleted my complaint about the lag

[surreal condor]

Yes because it violated the rules here (cuss words). Repost without that.

[lyric fossil]

Are you going to fix and update your servers so that way take overs can be fun and not so frustrating

[surreal condor]

Since I don't work for Scopely, no.

But I agree it's frustrating.

We are looking for detailed reports on the specific lag / experience though. The team has done a few things to attempt to address it and knowing what is still happening helps.

[lyric fossil]

So who would I need to get ahold of so this does happen agsin

[surreal condor]

Customer support via ticket if you want to reach an actual Scopely employee - the mods here are just volunteers. We can relay feedback but, as I said above, it would need to include details beyond "lag".

[tight drift]

Ok, reposting:
When the **** are you going to fix the ****** territory takeover lag? This is a complete joke.

and of course discord doesn't like asterixs

[surreal condor]

Thank you for rephrasing. The team has tried several things to address the lag. It's helpful if you provide details about what you experienced as it may help them narrow in on the cause.

[tight drift]

For example: Attacking another ship, waiting several seconds for them to get to each other and watching the other ship fly through mine with no attack going off.

[lyric fossil]

Cant target ships. When you do it ignores it

[surreal condor]

Does it target after several attempts or just not at all?

[lyric fossil]

Not at all

[surreal condor]

Ok, thanks. I'll give the team that info. If you notice anything during a future takeover, please let us know.

[pulsar sphinx]

Server 8 galaxy chat needs moderation immediately. Pm me for details.

[nova bear]

Do you know what criteria was used for this merger? Has server 18 been evaluated?

[surreal condor]

@nova bear Unfortunately, I don't. I suspect it has to do with server population, as the team routinely monitors that. But they haven't said specifically what the criteria were.

[nova bear]

Who would know the answer to this question? Our server is basically dead I would assume we qualify

[surreal condor]

@nova bear I'm not sure which team is responsible for that, specifically, but I will ask our internal contacts to forward that information to them.

[quick coral]

Server 18 is not dead. Dying, yes. Dead? No. We have plenty of active players still. I suspect, a server up for consideration for merger has 100 or less active players... we have hundreds of active players still.

[median eagle]

One contributing cause of lag is blindingly, glaring obvious: they literally pop out at every player hundreds of times a day. Every time there's multiple events which score from the same activity we see responsiveness grind to a crawl as our clients are bombarded with multple toast notifications for each hostile killed. Give users the ability to switch off pop-ups and you'll see a performance gain almost immediately.

[nova sierra]

Photon tokens! All servers! 😘

[nova bear]

Hundreds??? Look at the slb’s we can’t even fill 100 people on most of them

Yes I know different levels have different slb’s so people r spread out but my lv has the most actives so I think it’s a good representation. Higher lvs barely have more than 20 on these boards

[quick coral]

@nova bear sure about that comment?

[nova bear]

Good to see there r more people in the 36 and below bracket but even there 3000 is bare minimum from the given shards. So maybe 150 in your bracket 75 in mine maybe another 75 members in the 40+ zone it’s not a lot of people.

[quick coral]

I think this is just the 33-34 bracket...

[slow needle]

@nova bear check this

[quick coral]

@slow needle sorry, but what is yours showing?

[slow needle]

Theres only 32 ppl in the slb

[quick coral]

What level bracket? And different leaderboard...

But, still.... that is a much more dead server than server 18.

[slow needle]

28-28

I havent followed them til you just posted about them

[quick coral]

@nova bear top ten alliances on our server are all fairly active, and combined, have over 600 players. Not everyone in each of those alliances is a daily active player, but even if we took 50% of them... that is over 300 active players.

If the threshold for consideration is <100, then we do not meet it. Scopely is aware of server population and activity. IF we meet that threshold, we will be merged. Otherwise, enjoy the game.

[tight flower]

It's probably higher than 100 for the threshold maybe 1k but 100 is supper low

[slow needle]

100 ppl is just neglect by scopely, but maybe if theyd stop chasing off players with their management, dead servers wouldnt be a problem, ours merged in july and it dead already

[deft kayak]

less than 100 active people server wide would be a ghost town with the size of the game.

"Just" 600 would still be excessively low. That implies each of the top 10 alliances only has 60 players in it. I can't imagine there is much raiding happening at that level.

[slow needle]

That is our server now, i dont even try raiding and ppl who do say it very hard, according to djz 60 person alliance is healthy so a healthy server perfectly filled top 10 alliances minimum of 600, even when there was a 1000 ppl it was dead. There are open territory which has been the norm since tc started

[quick coral]

@deft kayak our resources raided chart

[dusk ledge]

First place in my server is a lv40 with 34billion resources raided

[stark egret]

Please put Leslie in an event store or something!!!!

[tranquil cradle]

And this event is back. So to finish the merger events as of today I'd need 10 weeks worth of armada directives. I'm fairly confident scopley didn't post January 15 that a merge was coming and to save my directives so I could complete the events

[deft kayak]

going to say this again - if there was a $5 day pass, or a $20 pack for tickets, I'd likely buy it. Not buying 180 tickets with 3 days of ticket events left in the bp.

[lyric warren]

Free stuff for Shatner's 90th birthday, but not Nimoy's? Just saying....

[deft kayak]

Shatner's still alive. Not saying it's right, just observing it.

[thin bison]

So, when will scopely do something against players using bots?

[nova sierra]

we get notified via spammbanners whenever we make a point in some event... but whats really important, the alliance news, has not even a promt possibility to show the people a change.

maybe promt it with 2 buttons, yellow and red alert effects (yellow triggers every 30 minutes, red every 5minutes)?? and please... stop this bannermadness as soon as possible!

[torn cipher]

Please increase the rewards dropping from eclipse hostiles and armada targets

[misty sparrow]

So. I personally would love an armada pull event where all the cooldowns are gone for 24h. I would love to buy more armada packs but if I cant spend what has already been paid for, why would i get more? Halp

[nova sierra]

Out

[compact silo]

240k for two chest. Scopely done lost their f ing minds.

[swift plank]

2 chests for me is 500k

[compact silo]

Scopely dont gone crazy. They are some greedy developers

[nova sierra]

Two runs a day with PMT in the 32 system. Nets me over 200k of the 210k needed

(And yes I have a t6 vidar as you do)

[torn cipher]

.

[nova sierra]

Work on your Stella, I get full cargo(100k) with 60% hull left. As to armadas, have you tried “rounds”? Where each participant calls one for the same group. It helps to organise along to one’s size

[nova sierra]

What is the point? You reach a certain level where everybody is raiding so once you hit level 23 you’re screwed. Plus when you are attacked, twice in a row now I can’t have logged in to respond to a notification that my base has been attacked. Well maybe I should be able to log in to put a peace shield up and stop the attack? And then your support says it’s apparently against your “request” to give me my resources back? There’s no point to getting resources unless you can keep them from being stolen (which the vaults give you half a ship repair) so my feedback is that scopely can replace themselves with a real company instead of a bunch of apes with keyboards.

[nova sierra]

I’m sorry you got raided bud, but honestly shield discipline is most important in this game. Some get raided every week, some never. Not being able to log in occasionally isn’t anything new, so you could plan for the eventuality

[nova sierra]

My problem is that my shield fails half the time. My alliance literally checks that each other have a shield up and it fails. Then when I’m active but not in-game I can’t log in to put a shield up

Making it so I can’t respond to a notification

That is an entirely different matter that you perhaps could’ve put in your rant earlier

I’ve put it in plenty of rants...

Yet I can only respond to what I see. Speaking of rants, my alliance mate recently got part of rss back. Sure some luck of who in CS you come across, but “ranting” for sure won’t help

Yea. I just put this in the #💬-general-feedback to say what’s the point if you make it impossible for me to progress in this game?

What’s the point at all?

It’s just some pixels

Then what’s the point of the whole server?

To provide entertainment to those who find it. If you don’t, seek elsewhere. Honestly it’s not very healthy to get this riled up over a game

Not like they didn’t put this channel just for us to yak it up about how great they are. They did this to find a way to improve the game so this is my honest feedback

Then try and be constructive. An incomprehensible rant about something that’s different from your actual issue isn’t feedback, it’s drivel

That’s fair

With regards to your post in #💭-suggestions , pleaaaase not 🙈 I enjoy raiding far too much for that

Lol so do I but if I can’t shield or log in to repel a raid then there should be a really way to protect.

[torn cipher]

I don't have a stella

[nova sierra]

Well I’m not saying it’s perfect, but there have been ways including new ones to get it. I.e. through grinding and 2 consecutive event stores

If you really wanted one I think you could’ve gotten one by now

[torn cipher]

No I could not, I bought maximum amount from event store

[nova sierra]

They made a change where you can get bps in event store

[nova sierra]

Yeah I’ve heard rumours of bugs with 12h shields, while you have ships out. I think RevDeucr made a video on it. Worth checking that out

[torn cipher]

That limit is realy annoying

[nova sierra]

Yup. I try not to leave miners out because people will exploit the glitch but so much mining I have to do

[torn cipher]

But I need 25 runs with my Sally to get enough credits to buy those bps

[nova sierra]

Yea. Def not easy I’m just saying there re

[torn cipher]

25 times dying and repairing

[nova sierra]

Well I guess I wouldn’t know I’m level 26

[nova sierra]

I need some 250 runs to get my rep to the point I can get hydra bps. If you want something, go for it. Or wait for the next event store. I want a t7 augur, will take months. This game takes months

Can you translate that into D3 runs?😂

[torn cipher]

2500000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 runs

[nova sierra]

https://tenor.com/view/the-office-comedy-jim-whoa-shocked-gif-3298729

[torn cipher]

but within that time you'll have a bortas

maybe even a B'rel

[nova sierra]

Yea. I’m actually going for sally lol. Don’t have d3 yet and just got vidar

[torn cipher]

I have a 508k sally

[nova sierra]

And I doubt I’ll do b’rel/intrepid

[torn cipher]

B'rel is great, intrepid is rubbish

[nova sierra]

Ah

Now the only thing that brings me joy in this game are transwarp cells 😢

[torn cipher]

I know people with 1m Sallys who killed 1.7m Intrepids

[nova sierra]

Yea. I’ve barely caught up with what ships to slip

[torn cipher]

I have got from 1 latinum antique refine: lucrative and latinum transwarp cells

[nova sierra]

Lucky. I haven’t ever gotten a ferengi

[torn cipher]

one tip for you: Don't look for those in lvl 25 borg space. That is where most people are grinding.

Also. In the morning you have more chance

[nova sierra]

I’m grinding there right now lol.

[torn cipher]

[nova sierra]

I also got my vidar 2 days ago so really only place I can go

[nova sierra]

🤣

[torn cipher]

So upgrade the damn thing, and get the right officers for it!

[nova sierra]

Yea lol. I’m still gonna start here till I get it to at least t2

[torn cipher]

have you got a D'vor too?

[nova sierra]

Yessir I do. With the shiny new research

[torn cipher]

what tier is it?

[nova sierra]

Combined I spent $40 on those...

[torn cipher]

What tier is it?

[nova sierra]

6

[torn cipher]

You are one tier away from the doom tier 7. Beware, once there, the upgrades for mining parts cost about 45k special D'vor parts each.

[nova sierra]

Holy shoot!

[torn cipher]

for combat parts less but still not cheap

[nova sierra]

I guess my name is “Doomdude” 😉

[nova sierra]

Yea

[torn cipher]

terrible tier it is Doomdude

[nova sierra]

I bet

[lucid zodiac]

Anyone know when the Hijacked faction starter warships should appear in my Augment faction store? I'm currently lvl 26 & Ally with the Augments, but don't have any BPs showing.

[red rampart]

@nova sierra , do the 29 Borg. 2 runs will get you close to 300k nanoprobes.

[nova sierra]

I know but my attention spawn doesn’t last that long 🙈

Also do all of them in one go - once I have 8, that day I go. Perhaps at 6

[swift steppe]

Do "projectiles" only work on 34+ ships?

[lucid zodiac]

I'm lvl 26 & I've got all my ships apart from my Vi'Dar equipped with the green projectiles you get from the battlepass, even my Realta.

[swift steppe]

So how do you equip them once you've "unlocked" them?

[swift steppe]

ty.

[hazy finch]

I've been stuck on 89/90 North Star blueprints for at least a year. It seems it's locked out of the event store unless you're below a certain level. Am I just out of luck now?

[cobalt narwhal]

why is the word "um" banned? it's a common word in german

[vapid oar]

Same reason the word "pal" is censored. And Walter...

[keen bobcat]

And con 🤣

And pipe

[dusk ledge]

😅#dreams one day wil come out I hope😂🖖🏼

[nova sierra]

It’s Monday morning the community managers are back in the office so here I go again.

Photon tokens! All servers!

[thick silo]

Anyone else feel that the introduction of Territory has basically killed the game?
Prior to is our server had lot huge active alliances, with relatively stable playerbase and leadership.

Following it tho, conflict got nasty, leadership became unstable and stressed, player number started dwindling rapidly, and now reaching point where many alliances have just given up with territory, while others have vanished compleately, and the few that are left are moving to alliances that don't need to fight anymore, either becauss they are so strong or because they isolated on all sides by allies.

Player base is less than half what it was on our server since territory was added, and even those that was left and was commited have now stepped down to more casual and cba with anything playstyle.

[nova sierra]

Territory has caused MASSIVE burnout. No admiral/commodore leads it long term on my alliance. It is a headache.

[thick silo]

pretty much what most our server seem to be experiencing

[nova sierra]

I said alliance but I meant server. Everyone has got headache from it lol

I can’t blinkin type today lol

[frank ingot]

who's idea was to release faction hunt during a masive server lag? it's a pain to kill any red

[weak hinge]

Wow nice

[willow galleon]

Scopely you are an absolute disgrace and a shambles 😡💩

[pure plume]

That doesn’t help 😂. They’ll figure out your account Essex and wipe your inventory “accidentally”

[turbid rose]

So yeah, are we getting our rewards?

[sharp gale]

Can a Scopely Customer Service representative please DM me. I wish to talk about an official complaint 😡

[pure plume]

I think you’ll want to submit a ticket in game or go through their email complaint system. I don’t think CS listens to here

[vivid knoll]

this need fixing

[stark egret]

I have a question about territory services. If I have two separate systems with the Improved 3 Isogen Refinery* and enable both, do they compound on top of each other?

[sharp gale]

Thx. Problem is I’ve done the support thing a few times, but “support” is not the right word for them I’m afraid.

I have now submitted it through the customer contact channel on the Scopley Website. Thank you for your reply 👍🏻

[thick silo]

no they don't stack, so its a waste of rss

[nova sierra]

Hei Scopely great job with our server merge. Now too many people and too few nodes for mining 🙈

[stark egret]

Thank you! 😌

[covert holly]

Was there a news update posted today? Reloaded three times and this is all i see.

[nova sierra]

Your G3 refits and personalizations are Platinum Whale-Only "events". Im a 44 and there is no way I can compete with the $3-10K cash droppers on the skins. Not only that - but it would nice if someday, you actually released an event that took actual grinding. Even faction hunt is a no-brainer when people can just buy BP's and tier up a few times to win. But leave it as a participation score only event? The leaderboards would change DRAMATICALLY

[lucid rock]

LOLOL @ the road map update. "Why pay us $99.99 for a permanent boost when you could pay us $99.99 for a temporary boost?"

[weak adder]

There they go using that word “soon”

[lime brook]

<@&509690795536941056>s nice and fancy changes scopely is preparing, but when will they add certain more useful features people have been asking for ages? First and foremost grouping crewmen into groups which can be swapped around instead of painfully rearranging them one by one!

[red rampart]

Here's a few useful suggestions.

1. Change to mining daily for Celebrated Rep. It's incredibly easy to reach Celebrated on multiple factions well below the ability to reach 4* mining nodes (unless you're lucky enough to have access to territory space). OTOH, it's now incredibly easy with Discovery Summoning for players to be able to get miners to 40k plus 3* nodes. Perhaps mining at Celebrated should be 50k 3* mats.

2. Ability to repair 1 ship per dock.

3. Tier up done in hangar rather than tying up docks.

4. More events that give Rare Armada Directives as rewards.

5. Borg Armadas give a way to get Borg Officer shards. The same with Doomsday Armadas giving a way to get TOS Officer shards.

6. Add the rest of the Shakedown Crew to Premium Recruit chests.

7. Rather than Server merges, offer players on max population servers an option to transfer to those with low populations.

[covert holly]

Are there any plans to add more territory space? Some of the more active and high population servers dont have enough so only the biggest cash paying alliances can control them.

[uneven vector]

<@&509691205798592532> have you all considered adding shorter (ie 1hr) peace shields to the store? Id really like to stop wasting 4 hour peace shields when i need to knock people off exhausted mining nodes.

[jaunty lake]

Refined 162 3* ore (2 X 75, 1 X 12) and got under 20 uncommon ore.

Really need to sort out the poor levels of uncommon when refining. When you need 1800 for a single component, this is a joke unless you have $$€€¢¢££

There needs to be a minimum amount per refine (say 10) and the. A chance for a decent amount in addition.

Please, sort it out 😭😭😭😭

[lime brook]

yeah fat chance... if anything they want more ppl to pay to get there

[fathom copper]

still no pvp/skill based content in the road map, still going 100% p2w...

[narrow bridge]

Looking forward to 2nd research queue.

But please can they prioritise photon tokens on all servers. As running on some why is this not a simple rollout.

Also please please please, marketplace to trade unneeded mats, ship bps and things like frequency modulators when Franklin is maxes.

And can we have a monthly bonus refinery.

[charred ravine]

My feedback on roadmap:

1. Away Teams - Neutral. Is this the officer revamped, memory crews etc that we are waiting for ages? New mechanic before delivering older promises 😒
2. Second Research Queue - Great 👍
3. New Event Types - Oh ok. Face off sounds ok, server vs server is recycling merge code eh 😉😉 could be fun.
4. Consumables - Oh no, please I have seen this in other games, starts with 3 and after year we have more than a dozen. We already have the base shields. Please KEEP IT SIMPLE
5. G4 improvements - oh ok. PLEASE SORT OUT THE 4G MINERS. Raiding in the 40s is like eating an elephant with a teaspoon. More cargo space, efficiencies.

Please the base generators are a joke, sort them out. What can I do with 50K dil that my my 5 generators lvl 41 make? I can’t even repair the jelly.

[earnest portal]

Away missions ... 3G materials and epic, jelly and legendary bps as rewards. If its just parsteel, tritanium, dilithium be wasted new mechanic.

[steady tendon]

Locking needed officers off of our ships for extended periods of time may not be the best mechanism.

[full plank]

Folks, you need to look into the resource generators. The parsteel wall at op38-39 is ridiculous. Do some math, let's say you put a maxed out mining ship with a parsteel mining crew on a node. How many years would it take to mine the parsteel to go from OP38 to Op39?

[quaint yarrow]

So i just finished the research to unlock stella, why did other ppl get it for free but i dont

[nova sierra]

You can get it for free through the rogue faction tab and current event store. No-one got it for “free” as I think you mean it, we had to grind through an arc to get it. You missed that arc and scopely has provided you a way to otherwise grind it

[crude sandal]

I'd rather wait the 3 to six months and do it through event stores... The grind they've opened up through the faction store looks hideous 😳

[nova sierra]

I unlocked my second one through event stores relatively quickly.

[red rampart]

The Discovery is a hidden gem of a ship right now. Properly crewed and with summoning, it improves fleet mobility immensely. Missions that were off the table because you couldn't reach mission bosses can now be completed. Armada timers are less of an issue when you can kick in the Spore Drive then summon in your big hitter with Armada crew.

[azure holly]

not to forget if chased, you can warp the ship out instantly, no 4 second warm up of the warp drive

[dusk ledge]

Bump for the photon tokens 👍
Yes for a free 2 research and no to a 💸 research (research to unlock stuff not money )

[rich belfry]

it's time to invest in the players ... and to solve their problems ... so that the game runs again ... and the "$ £ and €" comes out of hand ... motto ... "Do not suck ... take care of it" ... ✌️

[dusk ledge]

15 kumari ship’s runs and repair for one chest of 80 credits for me 😳😭 but it’s for sale for only 55€ in the store for the next 18h 💸💸💸💸💸😤

[crude sandal]

If you're 28, half of it is also still in the event store for a little while

[dusk ledge]

Im 27 and a lv27 ship is in the event store when you are 28... 🧐

[deep kernel]

Will the TOS crew be added to the Ultra Recruit chests or the Federation Faction chests any time soon??

[tight flower]

probably never to the federation faction chests

[craggy void]

With ship skins now an option I would like to wonder if the ship build list will be revamped, like putting the hijacked and separatist ships just as skins but available for there respected classes. For those with the ships already they'll keep the ship class already with the skin unlocked and those with blueprints for either would just be converted towards the skin unlocks perhaps? On top I have also been curious if that separatist d3 might be released for all players eventually at some point too either as possibly blueprints to be randomly found while farming separatist or just to buy outright? It's been one ship that while I know the event it was from it's also been very out of date with current content. Was unsure if this post would fall under here or the ideas area but put the grocery list here since it just touches on ideas already in the game.

[nova sierra]

Why there is no Event today? You forgot?

[fiery stirrup]

Are other servers experiencing the same issues as ours? Incredible lag, battle sequences not showing, ships still laying around after a battle, players not showing in your armada but are still there? Warp times on ships with bonuses don’t actually arrive when they say and you have to set course multiple times. This is about as bad of experience with the game as I’ve ever seen and the overlords seemingly are just ignoring it. Honestly who cares about new content- would take just some fixes to the basic gameplay. Sucks skipping events like faction hunt, but it’s unbearable to try with all the sync and bug issues.

[thin ridge]

the lag is unbearable

[deft kayak]

I have to apologize to DJz later, but I just can't listen to any more of that interview. Hearing about no plan for Lorca, no plan for TOS Refits (but more different ones are coming out thoon!), no timetable for transporter pattern adjustments (but will be > 11 months since the last time we had an officer added). Even one of the hottest discussed topics on this server (alliance hopping) was a "no comment" level response.

This is discouraging, to the point of making me want to uninstall the game. The game has been downright near unplayable this week, and to hear that they have no good answers and can't answer simple topics is gut wrenching.

[delicate jewel]

Still the 4 seconds apply, you just see another gui effect, but when hit in 4 seconds, you done. The same goes when you click again on that ship during 3secs, you cancel the spore drive

[azure holly]

No, summoning a ship is instant

[mild kettle]

Please put the Klingon miner B’Chor back in the Klingon store, and give me the Klingon credits I invested in Blueprints for it.

[cold totem]

Super disappointed to hear scopely has no plans to address alliance hopping. Doing it for particles is one thing. Doing it for takeovers completely ruins any sense of alliance vs alliance competition for me. The smallest alliance can win as long as they have people willing to swap in for the takeover.

[high igloo]

What'd probably fix alliance hopping is having a monthly long alliance milestone event with like 500M dil as the end reward lol. However, it's a pretty drastic solution 😂

(I know this is a bad idea, don't @ me)

[nova sierra]

If only they would make discovery act like it does on the show. You should be able to warp to an exact location, not just a system.

[nova sierra]

What is the plan for getting player stations out of territory space when the player has quit playing? Do we have to wait till scopely purges the server if dead accounts?

[hallow pumice]

This game is honestly getting boring.... I tried to raid again but literally no one is around... Virtually every system is empty and there is no reason to even try to raid as everyone is shield vets... The old servers aren't fun as there's nothing to do but farm and mine............. When can the old servers get new blood that is enthusiastic about the game as we were back in the day? It is honestly needed

[high igloo]

The next Harrison event better have the old brackets, no level 30 should compete with 40+

[delicate jewel]

Summoning is, correct, but that is during a being chased almost unusable, isnt it?

[azure holly]

If the ship is not the disco, which was mentioned above, disco summon is instant

[rich belfry]

really now ??!. In the question you ask ... "Is the package too small? ... for the money ... mmmh, say it at Ops 40 ... 🤦‍♂️. Do all have" white "desks?!" .. . when they are packed together - the packages ???! 🤷‍♂️. ouch ... that must ... slowly hurt ...

[nova sierra]

Holy hell. You either have very little lat or the most I’ve seen. What is tsd?

Road from Wolf to Babel under construction?

[rich belfry]

109,95€ pack @nova sierra Boni Token

if someone still has an idea ... "Build 2g ships ??!". I really can't keep up with the nonsense .....

[torn cipher]

No your warp range is too low for the quick route

for that "path" the warp range is 47, for the route around it is just 40.

[torn cipher]

keep it on your station forever. It doesn't matter they're there

[crude sandal]

useful for building envoys etc for scrapping into 3* mats?

[ancient bone]

It is a pity that trolls like vedekbareil didn’t been sanctioned.

[fiery gulch]

Instead of adding a new feature which is going to be the death of your game, fix your other bugs first.

nope, even adding a 30 seconds cooldown does not help

I assume this is all punisment for the complaining we did about cow 😑

What a joke games unplayable

[broken forge]

Was pleased with the graphics improvement until I couldn't play the game because of it freezing every single time I touched anything. Wtf happened?

[nova sierra]

tribbles @broken forge

Scpoely did ye know that you were merging servers.
Game is unplayable,lagging and disconnects.
You took a bad situation and made it terrible

but its the truth

[hazy geode]

Absolutely unplayable. Frozen, and cannot do anything at all. Server 131 is useless

[dull fern]

How about while your game is unplayable laggy you bubble the players lol

[languid oxide]

It's unbearable. Since when is opening chests an experimental feature that slows down and crashes everything?

[zealous bear]

We need some gold shields

[spark vale]

since people do it continually rather than some of us openening it every 10m or so

[olive lily]

https://media2.giphy.com/media/6229k5h1JkuvS/giphy.gif

[spark vale]

best guess is opening a chest is fine with 10m intervals, opennig a chest every 10s times every user is a bit of an overload

[olive lily]

recommendation for scopely testers: loader.io

[languid oxide]

I cannot even play the game without error messages, even without touching anything.

[honest knot]

They broke the game

[spark vale]

sure, when the sum of the connections to the servers is exceeding the servers ability to handle connections, no matter what you do, if it involves communicating to the servers, you're just gonna have to wait in line and deal with errors while waiting

[honest knot]

Can not do a thing

[nova sierra]

as long as you stay away from that "presents" tab, it should work to at least command your ships around. or is it just because i play via emulator and have a cable connection?

[olive lily]

they should shed requests rather than queueing.

use a rate limiter

or concurrency throttler server side

return a 429. The client could handle that gracefully at least

[nova sierra]

well, take your time, i still have to grind on my 1000 hostile a day quota

[chrome vortex]

<@&509690795536941056> The message Scopley is sending is do something else today other than play the game.

At first when I started it the game was ok. I noticed a-lot of ppl spending tons of money. Graphics I give a 3.
Game play I give 1.

Don’t waste you time or money. Playing for almost a year and each update brings more flaws and rushed unproven content. They even had to pull the last event to fix it. Which really was bandaid.

If you want an update here it is. Abysmal at best. They are stealing your money. They refuse to fix known issues.

New game events today 4/1/21 causing lagging, constant disconnections.... DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS GAME!

If you really wanted to play an April fool's joke you should have just said that you fixed all the bugs and the game is working fine.

[red rampart]

What a complete joke of an event. Who needs to be placed in front of the Klingon firing squad?

[warped vault]

game is unplayable. exception_error_title.... exception_error_200..... all I get after every restart. Great game

[broken forge]

Tribbles have now disappeared from the gifts box. And the faction hunt never showed up. There's nothing to kill!??!

[rich belfry]

F.....

[velvet smelt]

At least it isn't just my server broken anymore

[hazy temple]

Hope y'all are shielded up 😅

[velvet smelt]

Not that I want y'all to suffer with me, but maybe something might get halfway fixed of everyone is complaining about it

[dire totem]

Dang did they pull the tribble event? I liked the idea but apparently someone left a server room door open and well... you know the trouble with tribbles...

[sinful marten]

the game it's unplayable🤔

[broken forge]

Well the part where scopely takes our money is working perfectly.

[hazy temple]

https://c.tenor.com/FcVg5W9zZJQAAAAM/error.gif

[shadow monolith]

Sooooooooo can scopely toss up a cease fire for us now, so the random people who can still somehow play don't smash on our bases? Thaaaaaaanks

[hardy socket]

but to be an April Fools joke part if it must be plausible, otherwise it's just a joke 🙂

[languid oxide]

Even my 10 min chest is bugged now. It says there is one, as soon as the tab loads, its gone.

[hybrid linden]

Way to fail again, Scopeless. Try to add a feature or event, break the game in 10 ways.

[bitter hearth]

dont forgot pay 100 eur per packs for AAA game it will help .D

[devout spire]

Since people can't log in to defend their territories, all of today's takeovers should be automatic wins for the home team. Right?

[hybrid linden]

@shadow monolith They can't do that. They need to give the whales free feeding time.

[nova sierra]

a 5 minute tribble cooldown... this will take ages 😅

hf 100$ pack buyers ❤️

maybe do a 1 10 20 pullsize?

[tender cedar]

Is there a way to get grain or is it just P2W?

[nova sierra]

you basically play lottery till you don't have anything left without luck, or you buy packs

[tender cedar]

Thats the definition of P2W 😵

[nova sierra]

the rewards are not really that great. and if you want 10 of 10 there might be better ways to get him

you just get 5 pictures for completing it anyway, and a frame

• the alliance event gives you more, but yes, thats totally p2w

2 times full 10 pull without any graingain... did you tweak the numbers?

down to 1 minute and not responding again

[tardy dew]

it would help if the game actually worked instead of kicking everyone out every ten seconds

[fallow swift]

I've got 1 more grainpack, let me use that so I can get back to playing the game and ignoring this tribble lark

[minor monolith]

Scopely I love the game but in the last month I've had to reboot the game for one reason or another more the the previous six month put together. The game just seems to be getting more unstable every day.

[civic turret]

This game blows

[nova sierra]

3 minutes seems to work fine for me on a european server, no idea what america is going through

[nova sierra]

people joining the game now do not see the event

[gilded sinew]

<@&509691205798592532>
Just collected 13 daily goals no rewards and no bulk rewards with loyalty token either

[vital burrow]

Pay to win auctions suck for those who don't spend. Even on a purely chance-based event, you can buy packs. Do better by your players.

[unique glen]

We're aware. Likely to be lag. None of the events I've scored in are counting either. It'll presumably catch up with itself in time.

[minor monolith]

https://tenor.com/view/dog-really-smh-nope-no-gif-10013031

[languid oxide]

Why do we have a scoreboard in a game of luck? What does it say? It says: This guy/gal here had more luck in getting grain in return then this guy/gal here. This is no event, this is purely a game of luck.

[languid oxide]

I hope I get more then a "1. of April!" message out of this ...

[nova sierra]

@twilit mango big applause for delivering good work under pressure, big boo for those who had the original idea to make star trek a casino

What does this say to you scopely?

Message #💬-general-feedback

[fresh salmon]

@Scopely game still not working correctly. Lagging like crazy

[fast fulcrum]

And the daily are not working either

[nova sierra]

Awesome event. SMS rewards arent achievable without spending, and they are 💩. No event and no extra lag would've been better.

[vapid oar]

I finished 900k short of final milestone in SMS. Waiting til tomorrow for more grain.

Didn't spend money on it

[bronze mortar]

@twilit mango thanks for the event, funny 30 minutes

[tardy dew]

its a load of rubbish ive never see so many complaints about any event ever that last arc was bad enough and now this lol

[warm zodiac]

Daily events still aren't registering points completed 2 buildings and points ain't going up

[carmine copper]

Killing lvl20+ swarms and no credit toward daily completion

[hallow shadow]

Did u realised latinum shown as currency in the shop, but u can't use it there, to bad 💩

[hardy socket]

I believe the idea is you see how much latinum you have and might be enticed to buy more, not showing as currency but as inventory

[hallow shadow]

Pointless, even the + idea no function

Stop arguing u will just blame yourself and scopely

[dark monolith]

What is going on with the points/scoring delays? Even my daily events are taking over 30 minutes to count! I’ve just started killing swarms and killed 16 and only 13 are showing now after 40 mins. My events are all messed up too. Help?@delicate sentinel

Ok it just caught up. Ok not caught up.

[hardy socket]

I'm not arguing, I'm discussing, posting a potial rationale. But everything with you is an argument because it's your way or nothing. Have a great day.

[hallow shadow]

U got it 👍

[nova sierra]

Sure, it's a lottery, but many won't be as lucky as you

[median eagle]

A spectacularly stupid event to have an SLB on. Blind luck isn't something to place a ranking on

[vapid oar]

Yeah I started opening 5 grow chests at a time since 10 was going too fast. Opened 1 feed chest at a time too. Gotta slow things down.

[tight drift]

Is the scoring THAT slow right now?

[potent silo]

Old bug, it s tritanium vault you need, not warehouse

[tight drift]

Geezus. Is it that hard to fix a few words of text? Thanks.

[potent silo]

Yeah this one around for a good while 😏

[hardy socket]

considering they won't fix Pike to say "in combat", yes 🙂

[potent silo]

I remembered because my warehouse just going 38 now, but done that mission some month ago

[high igloo]

Every time there's something new, why not test whatever it is on a similar scale as all the servers combined? Instead of screwing a bunch of stuff up then trying to keep us playing by giving us complimentary "oopsies" chests (which seem to happen once a month), why don't you actually take time to beta test before sending it off to us. We really aren't a beta test game anymore, stop treating us like it.

[nova sierra]

TCs are ridiculous. I mean come on. We had 3 territories and in two days we lost two because a whale alliance just decided they’d give it to another alliance. The way TCs work is just another way to exert the will of the whales. It’s ridiculous

[jade patio]

Exactly. The TC won’t be right until they are limited to only those alliances participating in a challenge.

[nova sierra]

• alliance hopping gets restricted

Precisely. We could’ve easily defended against just that alliance but we couldn’t even get into the system to score

[nova sierra]

Agreed

[nova sierra]

I'm not sure how to type this.
Scopely have evolved so much since i've been playing.
Never imagined a liveops dev being here in chat fixing things @twilit mango
They've been brilliant.
I've not seen such a server meltdown in 2yrs .... no cooldowns, they didnt expect us to all play at once?? 🤔

few days of hype from all angles...........

[red rampart]

@high igloo , the problem is that it's hard to beta test an event like this. Load for a single test server (even one that's full) probably wouldn't significantly affect lag. The best approach would have been to start with a 5 minute timer on the chests and drop it in increments as long as the servers were stable.

[high igloo]

@red rampart I am well aware how beta testing works thank you. I am just noting this is a constant recurring problem

Every single time they mess something up then try to win us back with crappy gifts. I remember there only being one that was actually substantial

I'm saying, stop it, test further, it would be possible to make more than 1 server to test using only dev accounts. Why not make 100 test 'servers.'

They have the money to do it

[hardy socket]

or to use automated testing tools which could emulate sending requests from the highest populated servers, not just dev acounts

[high igloo]

True, I'm tired of this crap

Also, the 10min/4hr/24hr chests need the contents to be increased by a factor of 1000.

[nova sierra]

Definitely not. There are much more elegant ways you could solve that issue. For example, every player gets one TC token a day, which you need to participate in a takeover.

Alliance hopping is a beautiful thing. Don’t destroy it because it has one annoying side effect

[high igloo]

^^^I like that solution

Except people would save up on them and use them sparingly. Mayhaps a token for specific territories the alliance owns at the beginning of the week which expire

[nova sierra]

Make them like borg - you can own a maximum. And perhaps 5 a week is enough since an individual alliance can only hold 5 territories

Obviously those would need to be non-purchasable

If you want to go out to help another alliance? Sure, but you possibly can’t attend your own defence anymore. It becomes much more strategic than just the biggest spenders or biggest amount of ships

[high igloo]

Maybe the whole alliance gets one right after winning/losing a TC through alliance gifts. Only usable in the alliance you received it in or something

[atomic badge]

I set a 12 hr peace shield at about 7 pm on 4/1 and was attacked about 10 hrs later and I lost millions in steel, trit and dilithium!! ?????????? Would like it back!!!!!

[wooden flame]

Do you constantly buy those "Peace Shield"'s?

[atomic badge]

A lot of em. That one was a 12 he and it didn’t last 12 hrs.

Hour

[nova sierra]

Write a ticket to CS. And be polite, a gazillion !!! Won’t help your cause

[atomic badge]

CS??

[wooden flame]

Also upgrade your station to be it strong. Do researches.

It should succesfully defend

[atomic badge]

If your shield drops early your just screwed then?

[marsh kernel]

why cant scopely hire staff that can do the work after all the millions of dollars made , each update brings more bugs and faults , stop adding more events and other money grabbing and start fixing the issues , complete joke

[atomic badge]

I’m done buying shit. I buy the battle pass every month. Not anymore. And bout done with this fuckin game.

If the shit don’t work right I’m not putting any more anything into it.

[half tree]

I cant log into the game and haven't been able to since last night, im going to ask Google for a refund

[eternal frigate]

hello big fan of stfc I noticed that these last days the game recorded many bugs which is quite normal given the number of important new features ... however the main problem remains the same whether we are at level 20 , 25 or 30 the quantity of resources acquired by refining remains derisory ... how can we refine 12k of gas to obtain only 7 units of rather rare gas when it takes thousands for each update of the bladders, the game is already progressing slowly but with the refinery things are not progressing at all ... it's a shame and many players are demotivated

[atomic badge]

Gittin demotivated for A LOT of reasons!

[hallow pumice]

I tried raiding after months of not raiding...it wasn't fun at all, waste of time

[fair drum]

Fix failure in loading now

[midnight turtle]

Tribble grain not in the gift section today.

[devout yacht]

How difficult is it to increase the spawn rate of rare and epic armadas? I have enough directives for 16 rares and there’s never any level appropriate targets up.

[misty stirrup]

Seems to always have a major issue trying to log in and scopley can never fix it takes hours till can get back in.

[young steeple]

Yep login not working again

[hollow pike]

@devout yacht lots of people have lots of rare directives at the moment so they’re particularly hard to find right now

[wicked escarp]

<@&509690795536941056> maybe you guys should tell support to use AM or PM or 24 hour time, it would help everyone more than just saying a random hour and making us guess what it is

[night halo]

I was just wondering how can a LVL 25 defend from a LVL 39 isn’t the gap so wide for this?

[azure holly]

Did you raise a support ticket with customer service?

[torn wharf]

Nope...

[azure holly]

Recommend raising a ticket for this

[torn wharf]

Am tired of keeping informing problems, seems like they doesn't check the effect of every small things that they change.

[azure holly]

They can't fix it if they do not know about it

[glass horizon]

Feedback for the weapon refits, the green Fusion beam looks great, but any chance of getting the Photon pulse some love, it looks so pathetic.

[junior linden]

What happened to Refine bonus?? Last time we had it was like 2 months ago now, and lets face it the refine drops on normal chests are shit.... come on man sort it out! Get a refine bonus rolling!

[slender fulcrum]

I hope the refinery will be overhauled soon. This is the last garbage from the start. To do this, the officer recruitment has to be revised. It cannot be that one can hardly get to the discovery officers. It cannot be that the officers that you receive via Transport Pattern have not yet received an update. And it cannot be that in a fraudulent manner the availability of officers and resources that are currently urgently needed is reduced completely accidentally. Are you going to sell someone for a total stupid?

[last jacinth]

The refinery and loot tables for the armada boxes both need an overhaul. I’m getting sick of wasting armada credits on rare and epic boxes and getting 0 epic ship prints. Or worse, getting those worthless hijacked ships.

Would y’all like us to write the code for you, since y’all don’t seem to know how? Or do you just not care?

[jaunty turtle]

The gap is ridiculous.
Itd be like a lvl 25 attacking a lvl 1

[glad cradle]

This is the actual chart of the spread of what level you can hit, and what level can hit you.

I think a lvl 25 getting hit by a level 39, even though it benefits me, is not fair.

[random tangle]

I submitted an issue within the game back in early Jan on my cost efficiency not calculating right. A member of the scopley team confirmed it's not calculating right and said they would get back to me. I keep following up with the ticket number but being told the same poor excuse we are looking into it. Then when I push the issue they want screen shots of everything in Jan.
Is there another support area that I can reach out to?
Very frustrating!!!

[fossil elbow]

I absolutely quote your reasoning, the difference in level is too much, it leads to the production of cyberbullies, they do not allow freeplayers to grow, I foresee the collapse of many universes due to lack of players. I am also a level 40 player, and I absolutely disapprove of attacks on low level players. In my opinion over 38+ the gap should be 3

[glad cradle]

The max should be five

[fossil elbow]

for bases

[glad cradle]

Which means I could be hit by a 34 and 44; which I’m ok with. Yes bases only; otherwise 3

[fossil elbow]

unfortunately it will never happen 😦

[high igloo]

Just letting you know, there have been lots of people talking about quitting. Perhaps fix your problems before you have a massive drop in players

[craggy egret]

So you remove level 39 hostile from military supremacy but don't improve the spawn rate of level 40 hostiles anywhere? thanks scopely.

[fringe drum]

Good to see your keeping points in events do able scopely ...crucible of war 1.8 million points nup boring and waste of repairs.

[vapid oar]

STFC will always have bugs like most other games. They are a side issue at this point. The bigger issue, imo, is the exclusionary design of TC.

70% of TC is owned by just 8 alliances containing roughly 600 players on my server. The rest are consigned to trading/fighting for table scraps. Many players are completely excluded. They fall behind with no way to catch up. So why bother playing at all? TC effectively caps the number of players on each server. Mergers accelerate the problem if they aren't combining very low population servers. Good luck finding solutions.

[fringe drum]

I thought they expanded tc last update, particles packs for $$$ but forward thinking and planning ?

[random tangle]

You can only buy the particles in 2 packs and they are a 1 time purchase.

[fringe drum]

100 alliances and provided territory area for how many ?

[potent silo]

It s an alliance milestone

[heavy garnet]

Having issues in some systems with ships clustering at turning points. Along with destroyed ships continuing moving, when selected, a error message pops up.

[trim canyon]

This military supremacy event sucks. Too much to do for too little rewards. Also, $99 for 15 Enterprise bp's is ridiculous. Please do better Scopely.

[hasty plover]

Sadly, they won't. Get the officer pack. slightly less crappy.

[nova sierra]

Or just don't buy anything.

[swift steppe]

Stokely has obviously changed the way the officer que works, I like it!

[visual agate]

Spawn time on rare/epic armadas are just awful. why not spawn them faster so whales could buy and spend more? 🤣

[indigo sentinel]

I recently discovered the AR feature and am loving it. Are there any plans to expand on it? Would love to see an armada attack play out in AR over my dining room table.

[high storm]

hey mate,whats AR?

[torn cipher]

augmented reality

like pokemon go

you see things added to the real world using your screen

[high storm]

i havent noticed any feature like that...

[torn cipher]

example:

[potent silo]

Because there none

[torn cipher]

'xactly

[torn cipher]

🇭 🇴 🇼 ❔

I do not have Ar button

[hasty vigil]

AR button at top

[torn cipher]

I do not have it

[hasty vigil]

Always been there since I started playing 🤷‍♂️

[torn cipher]

SCOOOPEEELYYYYYY!!!!!!!! Give it to me, give it NOW!

[high storm]

wtf i dont have it either

[onyx dock]

Only on iOS I believe

[high storm]

@hasty vigil what phone are u using?

[hasty vigil]

iPhone

[mild hemlock]

Correct, after a certain mode too, I believe the XR.

[hasty vigil]

It works on my crappy old iPad too

[mild hemlock]

Please tell me that’s a mix up crew from an officer swap out 😳🙈.

[hasty vigil]

Don’t worry that’s who was left in Charge after I took the bridge crew out 🤣

[frank ingot]

so you are telling me they waste time with this useless thing instead of fixing the damn bugs?

[muted swift]

It's been there since launch

[hardy socket]

Still a valid point, they took time to program AR instead of taking more time on testing and fixing bugs which came out with launch.

[azure holly]

Been there since the beta 3 years ago ... It's built into the graphic engine called Unity: https://unity3d.com/how-to/create-AR-games-in-Unity-efficiently

once set up, requires very little time to maintain...

[hardy socket]

Again, they took time to set it up vs taking the time to properly design and test other things. It’s a feature that I’m sure few ever use.

[azure holly]

yes, over 3 years ago...

you obviously don't code

[hardy socket]

And how many bugs are still in he game since then? Military Supremacy doesn’t show for all, they can’t fix the wording for Pike, or how Pike’s CM shows for those it doesn’t really apply to.

I coded for 15+ years.

[azure holly]

Military Supremacy is not a bug

Why then nit pick on something that has no impact or supports the argument that you're making? 🤔

It's irreverent

[craggy hollow]

The Pike bugs did get one of my miners killed - I stupidly trusted the listed amount of protected cargo.

[azure holly]

Pike is combat only.

[hardy socket]

Lots of us know that, but because they couldn’t proofread and didn’t validate the code showing extended warp range or cargo hold some have felt jilted for the combat only aspect.

As for Military Supremacy, when support can’t tell you what you need to do to get it to show up it’s an issue, perhaps working as intended, but no one knows what to do to get it back into their event list.

[azure holly]

Then your Pike statement is your own fault knowing that it would not work. There is no argument that they Pike issue exists.

Please stop the excessive pingíng

[sleek stirrup]

The game is really glitchy this morning

[craggy hollow]

Yes, I know that now but Pike as captain on a ship with e.g. T'Pring as second did surprise me at first and the trap is still there for the unsuspecting newbie.
Good luck to you as well.

[azure holly]

yes, it will.

[nova sierra]

What the hell is that crew?

[hasty vigil]

Mind your own business crew

[nova sierra]

Gorkon, spock, and krell. That's some reall good crewing 🤣

@hasty vigil

[azure holly]

If he wants to use Spock on an Enterprise, then let him. The fact that it is a waste does not matter.

[tranquil cradle]

I put forward that COW needs to be looked at.

This is a whale event it's impossible for lower level players to put up any points that can help their alliance

I just finished military supremacy and put up a whopping 2.5m points killing my 500 40+ ships.

The top alliance on the server has 1.6B points

Let's do some math if I have an alliance of 80 lvl 34 players who kill 500 hostiles over the event at 100% participating we would get a combined total of 200m points

So to be competitive an alliance made up of lvl 34's killing the highest level ships available to them would require 640 members that completed their 500 kills

I'm assuming this holds true until you unlock dark space at 39

The event isn't even over yet so it will probably be more like a 1000 member alliance

[potent silo]

You confuse the leaderboard and the milestone. The leaderboard will always be for top alli, but for the milestone, it don't matter much. One hostile, 1 points with bonus using some ship. An alli full of lvl 34 can finish the milestone easily

Any points made help for the Milestone, and it s the only thing really important in crucible 😉

[tranquil cradle]

I disagree if I'm willing to kill 10 hostiles to every one they kill I should be competitive.

[potent silo]

A lvl 34 will never be competitive with a 44.... The alliance leaderboard give useless rewards and will be win by the whale alli like every leaderboard

[tranquil cradle]

This is the classic 1% problem player can outscore 99 other players working harder

I understand that they should have an advantage but should it be 100x what anyone under 39 has?

Tightening the point spread would make alliances more competitive. Just my $0.02. I don't even know what the alliance leader board rewards are, I guess I should look

[vale gale]

It's been on for the last 3 weeks. Maybe you should have spent it then?

[nova sierra]

https://tenor.com/view/shut-up-man-will-you-gif-18636332

[nova sierra]

<@&509690795536941056> ok it’s that time of the week again, hope you had a nice holiday break but my weekday meme/gif onslaught will continue until we get photon tokens

[slender fulcrum]

Looking at Patch notes: as we say in germany 'This is not fish or meat'. Just a recycled bunch of things... Swarm armadas..., Franklin-A.... Really.....?

[mint sedge]

I wonder if old Franklin will be of any use in the new Swarm armada. Probably not. If that's the case then the new armadas should be available only to level 35+ players. And you should think of a way for players below level 35 to be able to aquire Franklin-A blueprints outside Event Store. When I reach level 35 I would like to be able to do missions or daily tasks, or refine some old modulators and get those Franklin-A blueprints.
Out of curiosity, have you Scopely looked at the servers and verified what's the percentage of maxed Franklins, before deciding to introduce this new ship?

[supple gust]

Drop the swarm and bring in the dominion and Jem hadar, arc ship could be the defiant. Combined Interceptor speed battleship strength

[delicate jewel]

I can't find bugs section in this path notes, will they be brought to the game as a hidden surprise again? ```

[nova sierra]

fortis gaming said, that if you scrap a fully upgraded franklin you get franklin-a blueprints. for more information check some preview videos

[prime zephyr]

Where's the token for the second research

[azure holly]

will appear in the store

[heavy marten]

Do you know when?

[azure holly]

when the events go live, just like the Second Builder

[heavy marten]

Ah. Got it, thx.

[prime zephyr]

Thank you

[wary fjord]

With there now being a progression path beyond level 32 swarms, would a rebalance be about due on the number of FMs that drop for the old swarms, given that 'donating' your FMs from your swarm dailies won't really be a thing now as people can convert FMs to FMsv2.0.

(Referring to people doing their old level 32 swarm dailies then having a friend/alliance member kill them to get the ~28k FMs that they have in their cargo)

[rustic lynx]

I wonder if the new armadas will be "availabe" without the new skin for franklin A... +35000% dmg for a skin looks ridiculos...

[slender fulcrum]

@rustic lynx in ridiculous are 4 letters from Scopely hidden...This can not be a coincidence

[kindred siren]

Folks, did you do something to the alliance help counters? I am hearing reports that when you now hop, the alliance help counters reset at max? So we can no longer hop to get helps?

I see this in the updates .. Fixed an issue with Alliance help counter displays incorrectly under building and research queue But how does this affect hopping?

Can we please get some one to clarify the above?

Please Scopley, if this was intentional, please can you re-consider and revert this? A lot of F2P players out there will be affected by this change. And it would be unfair to emerging players to make this change so late in the game. A lot of players have used this feature to level up. The disparity between the levels will now be even more.

[lusty arch]

@twilit mango Please, can you confirm the information above ?

[karmic rover]

Any comments on kills not registering?

[willow raven]

This content is already extremely disappointing. New ship only for 35+? Wth

[ember cairn]

great, another situation like with the burn, Scopely is absolutely atrocious. Revert that no help 💩 you introduced, that's no fixing, it's screwing over the community

[vernal galleon]

At least tell the truth, the whales have all used it to get to the high 40 or 50 and now don’t want others to catch them up so were moaning about it, having use it

[fallow lodge]

2nd research is too expensive.

[autumn wraith]

rly only one options for 100 euro? seccond builder have 3 options 5 euro just a builder 50 euro pack and 100 euro pack... and now you have only one options? rly?

[ripe tulip]

Scopely clearly wants to milk customers more from now on. 😆

[nova sierra]

Second researcher is £20???? Seriously? Second builder which no one wanted you sell for £5 second researcher which you know people want and you’re gonna fleece them?
Wait a go scopley. Was hovering over the store ready to purchase it. Guess what? I didn’t, not with that absolutely disgraceful money grabbing.

[real swan]

Of course you would not release something people want for as much as the builder. Way to go!

[quick coral]

<@&509690795536941056> why is the 2nd research queue 4x the cost of the 2nd builder?

[somber bobcat]

If it had been £5, I wouldn’t have hesitated, maybe even £10 but seriously? £20?

[real swan]

Yea same

[nova sierra]

Why is it not free? 😂. Not worth money

[stuck cliff]

too expensive 😒

[nova sierra]

10€, instant buy... 20€... hestitation...

i know where you come from. i know researches are the timegate bottleneck that prevents players from growing too fast. but you should have sold the builder for 10€ then and not 5€.

now you have a selfmade shitstorm at your frontdoor.

edit: the sad thing is, i know it is worth even more than 20€. its just the conditioning you set with the cheap 5€ builder"present". basically players have to feel that they gain their money worth, too big differences raise suspicions.

yes, i will buy it.. BUT, better present us an awesome combat pass! 😉
otherwise i can not justify another 20€ purchase in front of my housedragon 😇

Also don’t have dil to run even one research 😂😂

[dull storm]

It's pretty bad to sell the builder for one price then the research is 4 x the cost after they realized it would be popular

[real swan]

I guess they are already getting bad rep for everything they do, why not milk it while it lasts

[crimson musk]

Thanks scopley guess I won’t be buying it for 20, 10 I would have but seriously it should have been the same price as the builder one

[covert cypress]

Thanks for adding a 2nd research for 20 bucks. I think instead of buying it I’ll just stop paying 😂👍

[kindred shuttle]

So £4.99 for second builder pack which was reasonable but £19.99 or £99.99 for the second research pack - rob dogging bastards

[icy summit]

They've added some rss to the €20 second research pack. I'm still kinda hoping they did that to be able to introduce a cheaper pack with just the token, if there's too much backlash.

[median eagle]

Of course the research costs more money than the builder: it's actually useful. All the second builder does is make you progress through Ops levels too fast, leaving you behind in research and with weak ships for your level. It was an attempt to put you in a position where you'd have to spend money.

[livid fulcrum]

Lower the price for the second researcher! Jesus, whats wrong with you !?

[burnt bane]

Was waiting for second research. I thought it will be a good thing. But NEVER at 4 times the price of second builder. Dear greedy marketing folks, I’m not a cow. And it’s shameful that you consider your players nothing more than credit cards with legs

[autumn wraith]

they still dont realized... if they set price 4 times cheaper they will sell more then 4 times more stuffs

[real swan]

Even small indie companies can make and maintain a game better than Scopely

[glossy quest]

Lower the price on the second researcher. Less than £5 like the builder and id have bought it. At £20 you can shove it.

[kind matrix]

I do not need a $ 20 kit, give me the opportunity to purchase a token for the second research, as was the case with a $5 construction token

[leaden lintel]

Yeah, give us a $5 option that has just the researcher, take away the other stuff!

[solar egret]

They solved that problem by making you unable to accelerate your buildings and research via looping through other alliances

But hey everyone is swimming in lat and boosters so they can finish their dailys anyways 😏

[nova sierra]

to be fair, alliance hopping has to stop. territory fights are a joke if that goes on

[hollow pike]

You can still alliance hop. You just won’t get extra helps while doing so

[autumn wraith]

it will be nice option when you leave aliance you cant join to another one for 24 hours...

[nova sierra]

maybe 1 problem at a time? 😅

[icy summit]

The fix they implemented does not resolve the problem you're describing. There are other (better?) ways to solve alliance hopping for TC. Some kind of token system similar to the borg warp tokens has already been suggested by someone.

[onyx blade]

The 2nd researcher should have been in the bottom row of the battle pass

OR an add-on option to the Bottom Row for an add’l 5 but only with the 20 purchase

[solar egret]

Alliance hopping for TC isn't a long term solution for the weaker alliance anyway so that mostly stopped after a while our server

[barren jungle]

Got second research. It gave me the speed ups not the token 😂GG

[solar egret]

Also since there are quite a few alliances involved with each TC it doesn't make that much of a difference 😅

But the extra helping hands were priceless

[violet linden]

$20.00 for the second researcher !?!?

[hollow stirrup]

No second research after purchasing it screwed again by scopley

[vague whale]

....spends 20$ anyway.....

[livid sail]

20 and 100 euro? Did you forget to deploy the 5 euro?

Take away all the other stuff and put just the token for 5 euro.... The extras are overpriced and not needed.

[worldly orbit]

20 is too much for the 2nd Researcher Scopely -- lower the cost

[last nest]

Thank you scopely i now have 2 big things taking 20% of my screen that i will not purchase

🤣

[fierce nexus]

20€ for second research? No way

[nova sierra]

21,49 in here.. price diferente from all eu?

[misty plover]

Without many words 20€ ridiculous.

[viral spoke]

Going the same way as many other games before, getting greedy, putting players off and eventually having to merge servers as people leave and do not return...

[misty plover]

2 server every month.

[autumn wraith]

yeah scopely break the EU law... they set different price even in same country I have price 549,99 czk and my friend have only 499,99 czk

[viral spoke]

They should have just included it with the battle pass and have done with it, more people would have purchased it that way or just the £/€5 like the builder pack...

@autumn wraith , that could just be based on phone, if one is android and one iPhone, there is also a price difference...

[autumn wraith]

same phones same setups we chect it twice...

[viral spoke]

Oh... Beats me then...

[autumn wraith]

and VAT in our country is 21% than its cant be price without VAT

[wary fjord]

rip scopely, not only have you priced the 2nd research at a price I won't buy it, I'm likely not going to buy the BP or the monthly daily rewards as a result 💩💩💩

[floral dirge]

Well since help tours were classified as an exploit they have 3 options takeaway everything anyone has earned by help tours, ban everyone who did them, or change it back.

[stark egret]

They should change it back.

[molten dew]

Change what back?

[floral dirge]

Helps no longer reset when changing alliances

[autumn wraith]

they will not change anythink they just stop players to have a chance to do it

[delicate jewel]

Thank you Scopely for taking from us ways how to improve and leaving us with YOUR YEARS OLD bugs !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <@&509691205798592532>

[kindred shuttle]

So £19.99 for the research queue and £19.99 for the battlepass - nice little earner this month - must be the bosses bonuses due

[viral spoke]

Let's face it, they don't want to make it better for us, they just want to get every last sale they can out of us before there isn't enough people to populate the game... They look at our suggestions and only focus on the ones they can put a price tag next to...

[delicate jewel]

Buglagely is NOT listening to us, player community, at all ... they just listen, but not listen to us.... they gather what they will take away from us and not fixing what we are struggling with !

[stark egret]

Shame on you Scopely. Greedy jerks. Revert the alliance helps decision NOW! @fringe tiger

[rough dew]

I Don t need and wont buy a Pack for 20 Euros, why not get the Token only for 5 Euro, as was the builder...

[nova sierra]

btw. your ingameshop isn't synced with google play balance. purchases not possible at the moment bc of that

[stark egret]

You are slowly killing this game with your greed. @fringe tiger

[frigid wadi]

So for 20 € you can do the 2nd research somewhere else #scopley.

[last nest]

yall shoulda stopped buying stuff back in 2019

🤣

[delicate jewel]

Dont you all understand that <@&509690795536941056> will not pass anything to the dev teams? they will just answer their typical words to feed you and then it's gone

[nova sierra]

Why the hell is 2nd research more expensive then 2nd builder?

[last nest]

because yall were asking for it

of course they were going to up the price if you all ask for it

its scopely this is forseeable

[proven palm]

The 'help tours' through friendly alliances were an interesting political and social aspect of the game in addition to making it possible to reduce RIDICULOUS build times that stretched into the hundreds and hundreds of days even after reductions were accounted for.

Waiting the better part of a year for something like an OPS 44 or 45 upgrade to complete OR spending hundreds of dollars to speed through it makes the long-term prognosis for the game seem dull. My alliance co-admiral has already intimated in this forum and elsewhere interest in leaving the game over this - fallout from people not wanting to wait a !@#( year for each OPS level seems like it could be significant.

Restore the option, retract all gains from tours in the past (likely impossible to retrace and undo) or if this has been labeled an exploit ban all players who took advantage of this feature of the game - which includes me twice.

[kindred shuttle]

Just wait till the q&a session when the next arc starts - all questions will be why 4x the cost for extra research queue

[nova sierra]

Even previous price was questionable, as understand for those who wants to pay,ok buy it and use it now. For others should be free to play option, even Hard but should be.

[delicate jewel]

Nothing will change for the good of players, they dont want to change it so they will loose income ... hypothetic income

[dusky bison]

No, Scopely. Bad, Scopely!

What a mess!

[delicate jewel]

Exactly, wa laughing very loud about this amateur implementation 😄 why not bringing up a menu like for repairs? 😄

[high igloo]

Are you really claiming all the extra garbage is worth $15?

[burnt bane]

Yeah very hypothetical. Greed sometimes hit back hard

[fervent flume]

5$ for second building but 20$ for second research ? 😦 why am i not surprised!

[stark egret]

Bring back alliance touring helps!

[timid tinsel]

Scopely thinks we're idiots They're trying to turn everyone into whales. two researches, that you have to buy, two buildings that you have to buy. spend rss like crazy, bleed you out, changed the refine rates. spend spend spend. And now we can't join other sister alliances for helps for stupid long builds. Hope unemployment is good overseas

Scopely 🖕🖕🖕

[proven kestrel]

20€ for a crappy battlepass, 20€ for a 2nd research option, helps don't reset "fix", boring ticketed events, etc etc etc... I lost interest in the game. Good bye scopely 👋

[stark egret]

Scopely just pushed a lot of people to quit this game unless they reverse course immediately.

[timid tinsel]

Our whales put their credit cards in the safe now, 🖕 you scopely

[night lance]

No way am I spending £19.99 on a second research arm against the 2nd builder which was £14 cheaper!! Once again scopely 💩 on the average player

[nova sierra]

well... don't know what you all think... but i'll live with it ❤️

[lime brook]

<@&509690795536941056> I feel I must congratulate Scopely for the most stupid idea I've seen so far (and the competition is really fierce.) The notion that the original Franklin somehow has an advantage against swarms (by having recordings of certain loud songs and an apparent ability to act as FM radio transmitter) is already stretched to the limit of belief. Now you introduce some fictional "Franklin-A" which is supposed to be even stronger in that department (has even more Beastie Boys hits in its default database, eh?) - a completely brain-dead idea.

[proven palm]

Arny - Of course, building anything upon the flimsy, not even the typical cool Star Trek psuedoscience, JJ Verse was questionable to begin with. But, yeah, doubling-down on stupid stuff from the reboot films isn't wise. Surprised Kirk's "Captain Ability" wasn't "Kicking the Spark Plug" to help with repairs or Spock's wasn't "Emotional Rage" for increasing damage or something.

[livid saffron]

So why the builder costs 5$ and research 400% more????!!!!

[nova sierra]

Because it s a world wide crysis... damn covid

[lime brook]

because nobody wants two builders and many people want double research? 😆

[nova sierra]

Apparently people need double scrapyards just to deal with Scopely.

[viral spoke]

Don't say that, now that will be out next month for 49.99!

[lime brook]

speaking of which, why such random inane ideas like inability to speed up scrapping and inability to ask help for tiering up? 🙄

[nova sierra]

"Hey, so they can scrap the old Franklins to get BP for new ones - but people who actually use the scrapyards regularly, let's find a way to hose them!" - Scopely.

[ember cairn]

I understand why they had to revisit the swarm and the wanklin, but even after TOS arc 3 we thought it couldn't get any worse, yet here Scopely is again surprising us with new even more garbage content 🤣
/end_rant

[nova sierra]

@viral spoke You know it will be $99, not $49.99

[livid saffron]

It’s called greed...

[nova sierra]

yay we got an ingame clock 🙂 cheers @twilit mango 🍻

[granite cape]

At what point... Will an update not mean hey you're going to fall behind if you can't spend a couple grand?

[nova sierra]

Why don't we have the option to buy just the second research unlock token separately?

@nova sierra Heaven forbid you be able to earn it in game.

@nova sierra Picture this: You do a mission. You warp here. You warp there. You warp over there too because nobody in the galaxy has a radio or telephone. So then you kill a bad guy. You donate some par/trit/dil/children. You sacrifice a chicken/goat/cow. You get a second research queue.

[nova sierra]

That would be ideal, but I would pay 5 euro for the unlock as well. I am less likely to pay 20 though

[lime brook]

...and another idea, <@&509690795536941056>s. As Scopely created the ability enhancing "skins" ("Refits") for Vi'dar and Stella, couldn't this embarrassment have been avoided by creating a power-up refit "skin" for Franklin too?

[last nest]

of course a grinding way would have been perfect but $$$$ on my mind cant think of anything else- scopely

[copper dust]

I would have bought the research at 4.99, may have thought about it at a slightly higher price, but not 19.99.

[nova sierra]

Honestly, the 2nd queues are features that should be there. People shouldn't have to pay for them.

[slow needle]

WTF scopely, you say your reducing screentime, then for us to finish an event before we can start the ticket, t
YOU ARE STAIGHTUP ASSHOLES

[nova sierra]

And for the cheap seats - no, you do not need second queues.

[slow needle]

Scopy douche right there

[verbal cargo]

The new researcher not worth the price. Especially considering the price of the building. Your just money grabbing now arseholes. You can keep the researcher n the elite battle pass. I won't be spending another penny.

[lime brook]

I would buy additional research for the additional builder price; the builder I wouldn't take even for free as I don't find it useful. So no deal...

[nova sierra]

The new second research queue is ridiculously expensive: $27.99 + tax in Canada. That is the price of a full-fledged video game. Why is Scopely so greedy? With this move you have just ensured that Scopely will never get another single cent from me.

[lime brook]

Almost any pack worth anything in this game costs as a complete full-fledged PC or console game!
