If you can read lips it’s “BORG, Leave it alone!”

[whole nexus]

Maybe even add what those are supposed to buy into the shop for a day. :p

[lethal bluff]

It's a good thing the devs haven't been wasting their time on things we already have access to in-game instead of making engaging content and fixing the massive amount of bugs and issues.

[livid vapor]

there is actually a better incentive to purchase online, witht he MultiPhasic Credits for an extra in game store
https://youtu.be/B27LhzvOStk

[lethal bluff]

So instead of just giving people better value and focusing on the issues affecting players they have created yet another currency, awesome.

[livid vapor]

no... they have given better value, by the new currency in the Multiphasic store, and you can CHOOSE what you want from the ingame store.

they are giving basically a 10% bonus CHOICE, of what you want

for example, if i buy a $100 pack, i get 1600 M.Phasic credit, thats 3xChests of this that i can get for example

and its level dependant. as you go up in ops etc

[lethal bluff]

I watched the video you sent so I understand that. However that arc I just played through was shit and showed a massive lack of effort on their part to create content for users but now we all know where they have spent their development budget. We have so many different currencies and materials in the game and it's already too much effort to ensure you have redeemed everything and done dailies every day and now this is just something else to think about every time you get a pack instead of either increasing the rewards per pack of create a build you own pack type system

[livid vapor]

basically roughly 10% of the MAIN materials of what you would recieve in your main packs in store.

you know they have different teams etc that all do different things right, not everyone works on the exact same thing right

[livid vapor]

but they bascially did increase what pack you could get but now you can choose the EXTRA that you want.

[hardy socket]

I'm just curious how no one at $copely knows inventory can be as jam packed as Jaydeezd's screenshots show. His screenshots don't even do the inventory mess justice. And why does it take screenshots vs internally having a method to see how a user sees things with their current inventory - make it a read only interface or just duplicate the user onto a test server.

[hardy socket]

of course they have different teams for different aspects of the game, but the teams should talk to each other, there should be a single team looking at the game as a whole and thinking "does this make sense considering this thing over here", "what if the different 'stores' or inventory sections were more consistent instead of some scrolling vertically and some scrolling horizontally", or other things players bring up.

[untold laurel]

I love how scopely makes the web store “available” so as to avoid paying royalties to Apple or Google using their in app purchase systems. I am sure they will lower package prices appropriately so we can see some of that savings as users, right? Right?! 🤣🤣🤣

[hardy socket]

One should not have to reset the game so often that 25 base hits give no popup nor shows in the inbox. I forgot to shield before taking a shower, no big deal, I get out, reset miners (3 showing 0-node while only 1 was in fact 0-node), and keep the game open. 10 minutes later I see a popup that I lost a battle, I check my ships, they're alive, oh, my base. I had been hit 25 times for 2M a pop, mostly parsteel so whatever. But basically I lost 50M resources because $copely believes we should constantly restart and clear cache vs writing better code. Thankfully the 26th base hit gave me a popup.

[hardy socket]

You realize that's normal for business. If you buy an iPhone from Apple vs through Best Buy - assuming similar model and specs - they're usually the same price. You'd think Apple would lower the prices if you buy in their store or on their website, but no, they have to pay for the transaction, they have to pay to maintain the online store, they have to pay for the development that went into the online stuff, they have to pay for the physical stores. The same thing is true for $copely.

[untold laurel]

Disagree. They will at some point remove the functionality from the app, making the experience worse for users while they make more profit. There is no reduction of ease of use in your scenario.

[hardy socket]

that may happen, but currently it's normal business model.
If they move all purchases out of the game it would be similar to Amazon Kindle app on iOS which, last I heard, does not allow purchases in app. Amazon does this to either a) lower prices or b) to keep the sales commission in-house (or a little of both).
If you had an app and were having to pay a 30% cost to the intermediate, wouldn't you want to either cut that cost or keep those profits for yourself? If you say no then that's why you don't get it.

[crude sandal]

That would be counter productive, given they don't have a cost involved in the sales themselves (beyond fees for that), it doesn't matter where they sell, they still get profit, but at different margins - and putting barriers between customers and their spending habits is not going to be beneficial

Look at Amazon, they make it incredible easy to part with your money 🙂

One click buys, kindle store, etc

[untold laurel]

It may not be good business but other software developers have gone that route before, and we know how much scopely loves $$

[crude sandal]

It's the old one about "Would you rather have 50% of 100, or 100% of 20?"

[hardy socket]

people complain like crazy about this game, yet keep playing
people complain like crazy about the cost of packs, yet keep buying them

[untold laurel]

I won’t buy any pack that’s more than $20. $99 is asinine.

[crude sandal]

I would put pretend internet money on them losing sales if they took the store out of the game

Because moving it out of the game puts a barrier between the impulse "I want a thing" and actually getting the thing

[untold laurel]

I’ll take that pretend internet money bet 🤣

[crude sandal]

Its end of month, it's all I can offer 🤣

[hardy socket]

I wouldn't pay $100 for parts to a game either, but I'm 100% F2P. I paid $13/mo for WoW for 3.5 years, but that game was more enjoyable in just about every aspect.

[shadow monolith]

What the hell does this even mean? Doesn't fit my playstyle? 3 CoW in a row with no military supremacy. This doesn't make any sense to me.

[hardy socket]

no one seems to understand who gets MS and $copely doesn't try to explain it. I haven't gotten it for a year, I'm guessing their algorithm feels it would be too easy for me.

[shadow monolith]

I mean, they could tell me what "playstyle" I need to have to get the event, so I can tailor my play to that, rather than being cryptic.

[glad cradle]

Oh how I wish there was a way to turn off gc chat, and alliance chat without leaving your alliance (and pissing off some people).

[hardy socket]

you'd think, but I'm guessing CS doesn't know and development either won't go look at the logic or just isn't allowed or won't tell them

[icy pine]

How about when other players suggest you kill yourself, then threaten to find you IRL & help you die, SS of which were provided to scopley, that customer service at least bans them from the game instead of a canned response & then do nothing.

I guess they must spend more money then me so what happens to me & my mental health does not really matter to Scopley.

[shadow monolith]

Some people suck bro, pay them no mind. Don't let people you don't know, never met, and never will have a negative impact on your life. If you need to talk, I got you.

[icy pine]

You think this would be something they would want to take action on.

Also, why does someone on here have swastikas in their name?

[empty dawn]

Is that a problem?

[glad cradle]

It absolutely is a problem! That’s the symbol of the Nazis! They murdered millions of Jews during World War 2.

[empty dawn]

Thats a symbol the Nazis used, but the swastika (swastika, word derived from the Sanskrit “ स्वस्तिक “, it means “conductive to well-being”) itself is like 4900 years older, specifically and mainly used in Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism as a holy symbol of good luck and spiritualism.

[glad cradle]

Doesn’t matter it’s origin: it’s still offensive and should be banned; just like the N word.

[empty dawn]

So we should eliminate several asian cultures? Is that what you are implying? Because its used to this day in east asian cultures

[glad cradle]

I’m not implying anything; that’s your opinion.

[empty dawn]

Thats exactly what you are implying

[glad cradle]

Again that’s your opinion. Have I said anything that indicates I want Asians banned? Hell no!

[empty dawn]

Ummmm “Doesn’t matter it’s origin: it’s still offensive and should be banned; just like the N word.”

You basically said “ban east asian cultures because they use swastikas”

[glad cradle]

That only refers to the swastika and the N word; nothing else.

No I didn’t; that’s your interpretation.

[empty dawn]

You cant ban something that belongs to an ancient culture because someone used it to do something bad

[empty dawn]

Dude, you basically said “doesn’t matter its origin, should be banned”

Literally your words

[glad cradle]

And your interpretation

[empty dawn]

Of your literal words

[glad cradle]

I didn’t type ban Asians, did I?

It’s a simple yes or no answer!

[empty dawn]

You said swastikas, which is used today by asian cultures

[glad cradle]

Again, I didn’t type ban Asians, did I? A simple yes or no should answer the question.

[empty dawn]

Are swastikas used by asian cultures as symbol of good faith, yes or no?

[glad cradle]

Immaterial

[empty dawn]

A simple yes or no answers the question

[glad cradle]

Or not relevant

[empty dawn]

It is relevant.

[glad cradle]

I’m done

[empty dawn]

Thats actually the most relevant part of this discussion

[glad cradle]

Good Night

[wary fjord]

Question: Does anybody know how to change the currency you pay Scopely in? Through my phone I pay (correctly), in Euros, but when I log into the web store or the PC client it tries to charge me in GBP?

[kindred sphinx]

Though I agree that both are now offensive, due to how they are and were used, I am 100% against banning any 'offensive' words, symbols, etc. Even if you don't agree with someone, they should be allowed to speak their mind, so long as they are not directly threatening anyone. Regardless of how symbols were used, or words, the internet is about the free exchange of ideas. If those ideas make a person look like a moron, that's on them.

[mild kestrel]

There's a number of problems with banning things that are considered offensive. One is that it allows any group to effectively remove words, phrases, symbols from the language by taking toem to use in an intentionally offensive context. Another is that you cannot address or resolve a problem that you cannot talk about. And still a third is that it allows those who can influence the choice of what terms are banned to control what subjects it is possible to discuss by making it impossible to talk about them.
I cite an an example the breast cancer survivors' group on AOL who woke up one day to find that they could no longer talk about their shared experiences with breast cancer because AOL had decided that the word 'breast' was obscene.

[shadow monolith]

Exactly... Let's try to avoid the path down to Orwellian "Newspeak" where they are making new words and removing words from language. Kind of ironic, as canceling words was also a weapon of the Nazi political machine.

Bottom line, I can say "my dog is perfect" and that can be offensive towards people who believe that only God is perfect. Does that mean that the word perfect in that context should be 'canceled' because it offends a group of people? No, it doesn't. The people who it may offend need to deal with it. Everyone needs to stop getting so hung up and butthurt about stuff that is trivial. If you're offended about literally anything, you're only holding yourself back from personal satisfaction.

[mild kestrel]

Exactly. There is a phrase in some circles I frequent, "offense kleptomaniac". It describes people who will take any offense that isn't bolted down, and if they can pry it up, well then it wasn't really bolted down. There are just some people who will construe offense wherever they possibly can because their measure of their own self-worth is intimately tied into how many things they are offended by. The more things offend them, the better people they must be.

[tepid bramble]

Seriously anyone arguing FOR the rights of hateful speech and symbols beyond being pedantic and disingenuous, you are grossly misstating your points about freedom and Nazism. Sorry, but threats to society have no place being espoused in that society. They belong behind closed doors or gone all together.

[charred ravine]

I don't raid nowadays.

1. The process of hunting for bases is demoralising. There is about 400ish active players, after a while you know all your targets, their habits.

2. what is worse is the eternal repetition of an actual miner stealing loot: Honest to god it's better at making me sleepy than counting sheep. It is like eating an elephant with a teaspoon, or drinking a petrol tanker filled with beer using a single shot glass. Way more boring than active mining. I wish there was a script you could run while raiding, if the target doesn't wake up and nobody defends then: just keep leaching, keep leaching, leaching.

There is nothing like a parsteel wall to make me want to puke. Find me a raid target with just a couple billion trit and dil, oh I am game but I can't grind it for four hours even if it had infitine resources to loot.

Can't wait for a server merge to get fresh fish in the pond and for the raid mechanic to be more fun.

[ancient turtle]

General feedback - your Picard and Georgiu offers are ridiculous and extremely insulting to your player base. Get a clue $copely

[prisma helm]

If people buy them they're not ridiculous. And people do buy them, or they wouldn't charge that.

[sour pivot]

@ancient turtle Well its typical casino set ups, and since they know your only buying crew lots once. They over price them. Its not just the crew shards your getting, but other parts to it. Yeah, look, I think they would make much more with continual 20.00 lots than these massive one time overpriced lots that only are for a certain price range of players (whales). They don't care about fan base budgets. Most of these companies go by analytics. If their analytics say these 100.00 lots sell well. They will keep doing them. I happen to think there is room for both. Your store for a casino should appeal all financial demographics, not one type. As people wise up and they sell less. You will see them break them apart into lots. They kind of do a scale sales 'gotcha' type, not unseen by other games, where they start you off w 5.00 dollar lots, to 20.00. to 50.00 to 100.00. Its to catch you as your progress. Progressive Sales and if your not shrewd, you will bite and they have you. Its all analytics

[ancient turtle]

Actually I find it hard to believe anyone is buying these 2 offers. The most recent in-between BP auctions were Picard and Geo.

And they’re already broken into lots. That’s the problem.

[sour pivot]

Don't worry you will see 3/10 lots and other lots as they come. Your not getting shards for them for cheap. Have to grind them as they appear in pack lots in game

[prisma helm]

Scopley will have huge amount of data on what sells and what doesn't. If they're repeatedly selling packs like this then people are buying them. This isn't the first game to sell packs and won't be the last. They don't do anything unless it makes them money.
They don't need everyone to buy them. A game like this gets 99% of it's revenue from 1% of players. That's why they sell packs like this. Because that 1% buy them.

[sour pivot]

Just have to be shrewd and do TNG shard events, like discovery and build it up slowly or pay. We won't buy in game. We play free

@prisma helm Think I said that, all analytics baby. Ha

Everyone wants things free, and I do not blame them. Take the ship lots. You have to do your research and know every ship is free in game. Just have to work for it, Missions for BB, etx, There is a way is my point

[sour pivot]

BTW, see the pattern too, section of space, new mining, new ship to deal with that section, new event, new sales. That simple. I would not be surprised if they added a Borg Faction/Species 8472/A new show section ship, whatever. Would not surprise me at all.

[last jacinth]

Who the frack, at your moronic company, thought it was a good idea for dry dock 5 to require g2 mats? Seriously? At lvl 39, all rewards are at least g3, and who keeps g1 ships just lying around for scrap at that point? Y'all make some pretty stupid decisions, but this one is up there, in the top 10.

[crude sandal]

6th dock does, too 😂

Luckily it refines quite fast...

[whole nexus]

This is explicitly cultural imperialism. Never mind that the nazis were engaging in cultural appropriation when they used the symbol. And if you want to take out the swastika, you should take out any number of other religious, political, and national symbols that are associated with atrocities. Like crosses. And the American flag.
The n-word is not comparable because it is explicitly a word that was designed ab initio to be a slur (the source is often considered offensive, but is not explicitly so). It is not a simple geometric figure and does not exist in other contexts--and if it does, it's in another language with a distinct meaning. Meaning it won't be seen in the Anglosphere, anyway.
So it should only be banned in the context of use as an active symbol of white nationalism and supremacism (read: all forms of naziism). Not in the context of Amerindians, Finns (though this will decline as it was dropped from the official use in 2017), or Asians.
That said, this being the US/NA/Eur/Aus if you're reading this, you should not be expecting to get the benefit of doubt, but instead harsh scrutiny. Because it's FAR more commonly used by nazis and their ilk in occidental culture.

[glad cradle]

Your last paragraph was exactly my point! I couldn’t have said it any better myself!

[last jacinth]

Unfortunately, I have to disagree, Zab. I wouldn't consider 30 UC every 8 hours to be "fast."

And the 30 I get is only if I spend the 50k to get all 3 chests

[swift steppe]

private chats still disappearing, still very annoying, and no supposed fix still doesn't work

[last jacinth]

Every time I crash, on PC, it is because Prime.exe is freezing. I'm willing to bet that's what's doing it on the phone app as well. They've got a corrupt, or badly written main .exe file that is causing constant crashes, that deletes PM history when it freezes. The either have no intention of fixing it, or they don't know how.

It's embedded in the core game, so they probably risk causing a host of other issues, if they try to fix it

At this point, they are just stacking more content on top of corrupt core programming. It's like putting lipstick on a pig

They can polish a turd, all they want. It's just a shiny turd

[crude sandal]

It's faster to buy the elite monthly chest and claim a wad of 2* every day, certainly...

[weak grove]

Please undo this preference in selecting for bases and mines or make the selecting more exact in general. it's impossible to do station fights now, when you can't select the enemy ships -.-

[burnt sky]

Does anybody know, why "um" is asterisked in In-Game-Chat? In German it is a very often used word as adverb, preposition, conjunction and even as a prefix. At least every 3rd german sentence in In-Game-Chat is asterisked.

[viral nest]

You are honestly a horrible company

[whole nexus]

And in English it's a delaying sound while someone composes their thoughts... So no reason to censor that, either.

[ancient turtle]

Haha, I’m not the only person disgusted with the offers in store

[daring yoke]

When is next maintenance and arc?

[serene crater]

Is this ever going to get fixed??? Unrealistic RSS required to obtain small rewards in the early missions

Hope this feedback doesn’t get archived guys

I’m not saying scrap missions altogether; just amend RSS donations required in missions to something achievable rather than accept what is dished out

[spark finch]

they are what they are.
can always archive until later when you can do them.

[summer fiber]

PLEASE place a purchase confirmation on things like the commendation ranks for factions (or remove them entirely). I just wasted 5k kling credits because I accidentally tapped on the purchase button while scrolling through the faction store.

this has happened with several other commendation rank tokens and items.

[crude sandal]

Please can we move the 'sound on/off' settings to be stored at device level, and not, I assume, in the cloud - if I silence an app, I want it to be silent even on the loading splash while it's re-fetching it's settings 🙂

[tepid bramble]

Yeah, scopy has an way overinflated belief in the value of their products. But apparently some people are foolish enough to pay it. So here we are.

[clear shuttle]

Resource generators are a completely useless feature. What use is a job that earns you fifty cents every day when a piece of bread costs 1000 dollars and the boss fires you whenever you have 5 dollars of saving? Same analogy in game.

Same goes for vault. The size of the vault is so small compared to what is needed to upgrade anything at all, that functionally there’s no difference between the vault size and zero (i.e. refusing to upgrade the vault has no consequences)

[glad cradle]

In one way there is a consequence: If certain vaults are not upgraded, you can't upgrade ops.

[clear shuttle]

Yeah that, but aside from that

[glad cradle]

No way of knowing

[slow nimbus]

For shits and giggles, I just ran the math and with the daily pittance of away team xp I get it will take 27 years to max everyone out, lol. Of course that doesn't take into account them adding a bazillion officers every few months so...😝

[tulip fossil]

i have 60m dil and about 245 of that is protected by the vault, there should be a way to convert into tokens if you ask me

[livid vapor]

And believe me, the rewards used to be worse. These are better still.

[thin ridge]

I recently maxed out my Rogue rep. I do not see any changes to the rogue store. Is there really no change? Or am I missing something?

Sorry my bad 🙈

That one lol

im not maxed though

i dont think there is a change

I think the cost just rises

[thin ridge]

Nothing changed at all… the store didn’t even reset

Any <@&509691417686442004> know?

[livid vapor]

oh read up.

[thin ridge]

I recently maxed out my Rogue rep. I do not see any changes to the rogue store. Is there really no change? Or am I missing something?

[livid vapor]

over 40+ adds ships parts too

theres things ops dependant,

Not yet I guess…. Too low ops?

Thanks guys, appreciate the help!

[hardy socket]

seriously, no easy way to change email or password with ScopelyID, is everything $copely does half-assed?

[mossy silo]

I find it hard to believe Scopely created an extended 5 month Arc for TNG and did not create Q character. Only one of the most popular characters of the TNG series. Instead we got an unknown Borg mining officer. Such a disappointment. Do better Scopely.

[hardy cedar]

Anyone else have a great increase in Lag since upgrading to iOS 15? The game is becoming unplayable

[midnight pewter]

Players in the UK are paying around 5% more for packs than europeans and almost 20% more than americans. A $100 pack is £74. A €100 pack is £85. We pay £90 a pack in the UK. I think equality is a great thing, but apparently scopely disagree.

[gaunt atlas]

I hate to point it out if it hasn’t been pointed out already, but exocomps are useless. Because everything is calculated off if the base rate an 85% damage increase exocomp adds next to nothing to actual damage. The higher level you go, the more worthless they become, and I do mean all of them. Build speed, research speed, mining speed, none do any appreciable increase. It’s sad to see so much time and effort put into the mechanic by the developers for such a worthless outcome. This same mechanic is also why the augur’s obliterator is underpowered (100% damage increase every 3 rounds, but 30 rounds later you’ll barely notice any change) and also why the enterprise is overpowered (shield replenished off of total stat, not base stat).

[lyric zealot]

They should either use the correct formula, or change the advertised buff.

[clear shuttle]

it should be a multiplier, not an adder, so 30% bonus on top of 30% bonus should be 69% and not 60%
adders are worthless

because if someone already has 800% bonus, another 85% makes next to no difference

[nova sierra]

So how is your solution better?

[clear shuttle]

if you don't understand math stop commenting

[nova sierra]

Not saying Scopely math is the most transparent, but your implementation would have the exact same issue

[clear shuttle]

85% bonus multiplier on top of 800% bonus makes it 1465%

whereas 85% bonus adder on top of 800% makes it 885%

the difference is there

go figure

[nova sierra]

Yeah so? You’d still have to know you have 800% bonus at the start of your calculation

[clear shuttle]

the issue is that when multiple bonuses are stacked on top of each other, multipliers result in much larger bonus than adders

[nova sierra]

Ah really? Is that what multiplication does

[clear shuttle]

hey what's 3*3 and what's 3+3?

you see the difference?

[nova sierra]

You’re a real expert in insulting people!

[clear shuttle]

I don't mind being pointed out if I have made a mistake of some sort, but please, speak only if you have something to say

[nova sierra]

I ask you a question to clarify your point, and your first instinct is to respond with derision and belittlement. So please, only speak if you can be respectful.

[clear shuttle]

that is not a question, that is a rhetorical question. Your next comment shows you didn't have anything to ask, instead you attack something you don't understand

[nova sierra]

And here you go again 🤷‍♂️ ciao

[gaunt atlas]

In any case you’re both correct in that it’s currently broken. With their current track record and the new cloaking feature they’re supposed to add one does wonder if a ship that is 100% cloaked will still be 97.6% visible.

[swift steppe]

As is I have to clear localization upteen times a day, sure would be nice if when I clicked on my icon clear was set right there one click away!

[timid shoal]

What about ECCM. In STO Kirk figured out how to find a cloak ship, we all should have the ability to find one. 🙂

[whole nexus]

These are called factors. "Bonus weapon damage" is one factor. Not each source being its own factor, each source is only an addend within that factor. Critical damage bonus is another factor that is applied on critical hits. And ship power goes up too fast already. And hull breach is also applied on critical hits... Somewhere. And obviously "base damage" is another factor, though how modifications to "raw base" are handled, i don't know (they're very rare and only primes come to mind modifying it).

[whole nexus]

Actually, the difference is between x * (1 + 3 + 3...) and x * (1 + 3) * (1 + 3)...
It's the former, and the latter would be rather foolish to implement. Tracking a shifting number of operations like that would be overcomplicated to balance, and require strict limitations(see: linear fighters, quadratic wizards). And would be overly complicated to process en masse too.

[clear shuttle]

Two 200% multiplicative bonuses (+800%) did more than two 300% (+600%) additive bonuses

[nova sierra]

I like it when someone points out that exo comps are complete useless trash (which they are), at least one mathlete needs to come outta the woodworks like "Aaaaktually".. it's like yo, stfu, they suck, end of story lol

[fallen veldt]

well exo buff are good if you have no big boost by research if i understand , so they are good for my level 27 .... exo boost mining, speed , combat works very well for me and i think it is the goal of that : good boost for levelling ....

[ember cairn]

@fringe tiger Why did you say to me in one of the TNG-question channels that Photon Tokens weren't good for the players? You told me off that you guys would've added them a long time ago if they were good for the players, thus rendering my repeated questions about that matter "dumb". Yet here we are in Patch 35 with Photon Tokens. Care to elaborate on your previous statements?

Why is the Ship Cloaking ability only available for klingon and romulan ships, but NOT for federation ships? 😡

[timid ivy]

New Worf along with Harrison and new cloak damage bonus ... out of mind

[sullen matrix]

we are long past being canon, also we can happily shoot fed ships without being a target. Its a game, as game breaking as the feature is, its even worse to exclude one faction

[strange lava]

So they introduce a low protected cargo meridian for ISO, that you have to babysit when mining, but now they make the attacks potentially invisible with cloaking? How are we supposed to use the meridian now? Just cross out fingers and pray?

[sullen matrix]

Like i predicted, RIP to Iso and Data mining

[static rover]

Ideally there should be a refit for fed ships that enhance shield vs cloaked ships and an early warning system. But then that just makes too much sense so...

With these new „enhancements“ the K‘Tinga will easily outperform my Newton (16 mio. power), where I invested a lot of real € into 😡.
I really consider quiting this game after this 😏

[reef nacelle]

So, a 66% chance that someone can break RoE and do some jerk move and not get caught? This sounds like a disaster waiting to happen.

[open sundial]

Having a mechanic where attacks can happen with no chance to do anything about it or even see who did it is pretty bad imo. I can't recall that in any PVP game I've seen.

[nova sierra]

Too many officers that have shield penetration or strip shields. Toss them on a cloaked ship, bam.

[nova sierra]

Didn't realize Scopely was a signatory of that treaty. 🙂

[mystic forge]

So scopely just bent over EVERYONE that invested time and real money into their federation ships by giving the Rom and Klingon ships "significantly stronger attacks while cloaked". SCREW YOU!

[olive wraith]

when i see it right, than is a cloaking for a valdore easier to get than for an augur

[tawny laurel]

Maybe I’m just the only one not happy about the cloaking ability. We have some real a-hole lvl 36 players on my server. They are bad enough as it is, giving them this cloaking ability is going to make them unbearable and really ruin the gameplay for us lower lvls.

[glad cradle]

There are multiple lvl 50 players on my server. I also hate cloaking; I may never get it because I'm way off from getting a klingon or romulan ship (hijacked ships don't count)!

[lime brook]

The announcement for this patch announced two new features: 1) Cloaking of course and 2) the "long awaited" officer presets.
I see no trace of the latter, yet that's the only thing I'd like to see (and so would many others) and I'd be willing to give up a dozen of other unusable features you've introduced to get it.
Scopely swindling us again, @fringe tiger?

[hollow pike]

Weren’t officer presets just a roadmap thing?

[lyric zealot]

They never said that officer presets were coming this month.

[potent prism]

are the loyality badget transformed into photon tokens?

[lime brook]

ok maybe I misunderstood that; all I know is I saw an announcement boasting those two new features!

[hollow pike]

Yeah, that was a roadmap of things that are coming. We’ve gotten the first item now - cloaking. Other items should come along over the next few months

[worthy lagoon]

If this screenshot is real, and you expect people to be Ops 60 before getting the Ent-D, than I'm just going to save you and I time, and I'll just quit playing today. I'm a F2P player, and I just don't see myself ever getting to Ops 60.

Peace out.

[stuck delta]

Its very real! We have someone whos Lvl50 and can see them, funny thing is she'll be level 60 before I reach lvl 40

[solid nacelle]

Why do exocomps have real estate on the alliance screen? What about exocomps involves the alliance? Or is this a way to get it in peoples face because the usual unintuitive UI wasn’t helping exocomps be as used as initially hoped?

[stuck delta]

Gawd!

[prisma helm]

New alliance exocomps coming. But only high level players can get them

[fringe tiger]

where we said they were coming this month, sir?

[neat moss]

@fringe tiger did I misread the tense on the Loyalty Chest upgrades, or were those also supposed to be in this patch? Still seeing the same rewards and no new token that was mentioned in the 7 day chest

[prisma helm]

After reset

[limpid quarry]

dear scopely. i made the mistake of querying what bugs the new patch would introduce into the game. now i can't even get into the game. i have reset game. reset phone. reinstalled the software. reset the phone. only a few more hours to the auto shield wears off. what else can i do to actually get into the game? also new iphone, lastest ios, i can see the nearest cell tower from my living room window - no issue with connectivity. do i get compensated for getting raided because i can't get into the game to reset my shields. 😡

[mortal dawn]

Will we have to be millionaires to build them one day ? 🤣

[fringe tiger]

coming at reset (or a bit later) as I said here #⭐-official-announcements

[lime brook]

I guess my frustration of playing the game without that essential feature got me too excited when I saw we'll get it so I must have misread it.

But no worries, I understand the priorities; whales must buy their cloaks first. Relieving the less paying customers of years long torture can wait.

[solid nacelle]

The page on cloaking doesn’t list the Hijacked ships. Can any of those cloak as well? Would be nice if they could. Could make them a little more useful to those who have them, or to further boost Scopely’s attempt to sell them.

[gentle topaz]

way to go scopely.......making federation players targets really make people want to play the game...brilliant move

[nova sierra]

I’m guessing the new officers will, once again, be unlocked through “spend rss” leaderboards?

[warped kernel]

So cloaked ships can attack? Has anyone at Scopely actually watched the series or movies. Ships can’t fire while cloaked (except for one prototype bird of prey). Thanks for once again screwing over those who don’t spend thousands on a phone game by giving the high level players an even bigger advantage. My time on this game may be done.

[onyx canyon]

Okay scop, now Ur going to destroy the game

[solid nacelle]

Thanks. I see the screen now.

[cerulean juniper]

They want everyone to buy cloaking so everyone will buy anti-cloaking. Announced this back in April

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CYVikA70GUs

[tribal cloud]

How will anti cloaking matter if there's a 66% chance of not knowing who hit you?

Unless that negates that.

[brazen prism]

Making typical Scopley players happy with a dead sparrow. Making lots of beautiful videos. Then at the end say, it costs 100 euros to get your cloak. What a sick way of treating players 😿

https://tenor.com/view/we-steal-it-steal-felony-casual-jamie-foxx-gif-12236868

[cerulean juniper]

That’s why you buy anti-anti-cloaking… see end of commercial

[brazen prism]

Big whales and trolls are happy p2 cloak to annoying players more and more on the servers

[brazen heart]

The cloaking for Romulans and Klingon ships only breaks the equal distribution and fair play. Players who have Federation ships are now targets and unable to obtain cloaking.
66% chance of being able to hide your name and alliance name means that ROE can be unenforceable in 66% of those hits. That breaks gameplay if you can’t mine or play the game.

Thank you, Scopely, for giving us a reason to quit this game. Good luck getting more money from the few who remain.

[simple patio]

I love the new exocomp interface but you no longer can get the descriptions by tapping an exocomp, including the warning that it will not affect ships out of dock

[tepid valve]

Hey Scopely, did someone accidentally cloak your servers and take them offline? The lag is killing us…, again 😒

[jaunty turtle]

<@&509691205798592532> no photon Tokens on server 28.

[unique glen]

Should be coming later today

[clever hemlock]

Will cloaking be available for the hijacked D3 & Legionary?

[glad cradle]

No, they are not considered faction ships.

[lethal bluff]

So they have "facebooked" the only good part of the arc. Chop chop fix the tokens!

[turbid bluff]

New game update killed my new iPad Air

[worthy pagoda]

Great job scopely now you’ll have the whales hiding who they are. Typical catering to the whales

[civic jay]

How does an Alliance level up the Exocomps to unlock the Alliance exocomps?

[olive wraith]

where can i find this mission to unlock the paths at brestant & ty'gokor??

[fallen glen]

Cloaking is lame and breaks the game.

[foggy edge]

I went pure fed a long time ago, nothing in the game taught me about faction locking. Now I’m almost commended, I can’t get a romulan or Klingon ship unless i get them from farming drops or alliance token shop

[lime bough]

Us, the old players around this game since beta... but the F2P survivors, we would like to thank Scopely for saving the whales like nobody else... Cheers! Finally we all can be 51, 52... so I bet 95% of us, players... we are just celebrating this major and ultimate upgrade, with our new cloaking devices we just bought, one for each ship of course!!

[grim pewter]

Not sure if this has been touched on but this art of war event is super annoying. Why was I forced to take a side that mess with my rep? I know there is new no rep sectors in each space but I don't have the time or warp range to get to the higher ones. I'm currently trying to get to a KT and would have love to have been able to keep with my current rep grind. Thanks for messing me up scopley

[severe patrol]

No need to mess up your rep to finish event they added new systems to hit rom ships no impact on rep points

[slim knot]

When will STFC be available as a Mac app in the Mac App Store? This should have been extremely easy to do, even easier than the PC version!

[severe patrol]

Read event desciption there is system names written down 🙂

[grim pewter]

@severe patrol Iam tracking that but I stated that I can't reach higher then 38 or have the time to mess with the 38s.

[severe patrol]

Then its choice based i finished event by smacking those lvl 37-38 took longer but no rep lost with roms wa sworth that extra time

[grim pewter]

It's not a choice when scopley choose for you is what made me a little upset. In the pass they at least let you chose a side.

[median pawn]

The new cloaking function only for romulans and klingons is breaking the balance of the game and killing it. RoE Rules on several Servers do not apply anymore, so everyone can just kill um miners without punishment. The function, that cloaked ships can shoot has nothing to do with Star Trek and is unbalancing the fractions. So I will quit the game because of that

[grim pewter]

But I guess scopley has bigger fish to fry over this cloaking lol. I'll just let it stand at what I said. Maybe next time scopley will just let us chose

[lime bough]

Don't worry Federation whales are already demanding a compensation... Ent A will soon have 5 crew and a 250% power upgrade!

Monetise the game like never... why balance anything right?

[torpid geyser]

Is there any way to unlock the second building or research without having to spend any money?

[prisma helm]

No

[torpid geyser]

That sucks, there should be a way where you can work to earn them without having to fork over $20 bucks each. A lot of us are on fixed budgets and can’t afford to buy all this.

[willow raven]

Get used to it. This is not the game for that.

[loud cove]

Scopely..... you really screwed up this game.

Thanks for that

[pure nebula]

faction locks removed?

wow.. no comment? all faction locks removed and what does that get us? Why was this not put out?

[twilit agate]

Locks are still there…

10 million, 1 billion…

[pure nebula]

I have confirmed. the 10M is gone… others higher than me confirmed that the champion lock is gone

[twilit agate]

Not on my server then…

Or my account 😏

[loud cove]

Maybe you need to restart and make sure you have the last release. Faction locks still intact on Srv 20

[glad cradle]

So you're saying I can now go back below respected (10M)?

[pure nebula]

I did

[glad cradle]

But some are saying it's still there

[loud cove]

Locks are still in place, 10 mil confirmed

[pure nebula]

had latest update before we came out of maintenence

[glad cradle]

OK

[pure nebula]

appears restarting client fixed some… others say no… now it seems to me that if it its not working, then it will be fixed

[swift steppe]

Sorry devs but I just gotta say this, All the things you can't do for us or take yrs to do yet you can pop out 20 new systems with special rule hostiles for little discernable purpose?

[lime bough]

Yes cause fix a broken node or Nero is way complicated right? But to break the current concept of distance(the deep space and stuff) putting a warp 150 system in the middle of Cillers and Biruin is pretty ok and easy to do eheh

[lapis gorge]

Will there be a fed version of a cloak, or somethig to counter it. Doesnt seem fair if you are deep into fed faction you cant use cloak

[lime bough]

Hope not, for real... game is Fed enough already.

what I do hope is... revisit this and make it the way many people always dreamed about, close to the show.

[lapis gorge]

That would be great.

I would like to use cloak but im 7 mil plus in fed and mins 2 mil klingon

[lime bough]

yes we always expected something like a Romulan and Klingon research with a fair cost and with some choices in the way to have it, like to really have to chose the Romulan path or Klingon path, but never a monetised stuff, a refit for each ship.

[lapis gorge]

If i thought this would come around i would tried dual faction

[lime bough]

I am Romulan single focused player with Klingons locked... still imagine my frustration with this.

We should have to give up all the Federation path to get something like this... and Feds path of course would have something nice too for those who decided not be independent anymore and truly converted to a faction.

[brazen heart]

Goodbye, Scopely. Definitely lost a paying player today.

[mild parcel]

https://www.startrekfleetcommand.com/exocomp-consumables/ ALLIANCE EXOCOMPS
Alliance Exocomps are unlocked automatically at alliance levels 17, 20, and 22. Alliance Exocomps are used to activate Alliance Consumables. Like regular consumables, Alliance Consumables also have a type (Galaxy, Station, and Combat), and can only be activated in Exocomp slot that corresponds to that type.

When activated, Alliance Consumables provide a temporary bonus to all members of the alliance. Any player can activate an Alliance Consumable, but only Admirals and Commodores can remove or replace them.

The buff value that a player receives from an active Alliance Consumable is determined by their player level. For example, a level 40 player will receive a different bonus to a level 10 player. The full list of values per player level for an Alliance Consumable can be seen by tapping on it in the inventory to see its full description.

[glad cradle]

If you remember the TNG episode Pegasus, the Federation was banned, by the treaty of Algeron, to have a cloaking device. Only the Defiant from DS9, was allowed, because of the war with the Dominion.

[foggy idol]

Why is there a cooldown on the 7 day loyalty chests? I have been saving my loyalty tokens waiting for the release of Photon Tokens for 6 months. It's going to take me weeks to cash them all in if I can only do 28 a week

[dark grotto]

Not being able to cloak federation ships kinda sucks.

The reason federation don't cloak is they signed a treaty. We are independent, we should be able to install a cloaking device on these ships.

Unless fed ships get something else, they just became the worst faction

[static wagon]

Nice, yes, but why no survey ship parts?! 😖

[potent silo]

Meridian stuck t8 too?

Had the same though. Why no survey ship parts 😭

[static wagon]

YES!!!!!!!!

[potent silo]

I have 1 rare survey part. 1 😂no idea where I got that lol.

[restive elbow]

Im having a hard time with this... Do i need a year and a half to redeem this? Rlly?

Oh no bad math.. Haha im just angry at the cooldown.. 7 oer chest. Phew. But still... 2 months?

Why cooldown on this?

[cunning scarab]

Pffft lol

[restive elbow]

Wow... Good luck

Haha

[wary hornet]

That sucks. I only have 147 saved up

[cunning scarab]

When I get to 1000 I will start using them…. Maybe

[restive elbow]

Wait u been saving that shit for 2 years no

?

[noble needle]

Why are there so many things to collect every day now? We should have one refinery style place where we can see everything that's on a longer timer instead of hopping all over the menus.

[lilac storm]

A 7 day timer to claim saved 7 day loyalty chests? Really? Why?

[tardy dew]

What’s happened to the faction dailies once u hit over 1 bill rep?

[hollow smelt]

I understand that Allegiance tokens needed to be throttled down but 7days cool down is overdoing it. For us with hundreds of loyalty tokens, we will need months to cash them in. I will need 5-6months to go through all of them.

[formal vigil]

Seriously... I am level 30 and i have to pay and buy the things that I can't use until level 50?.. What kind of crazy logic is that? 😤 😤

[dark grotto]

I mean no one said you had to

[edgy shuttle]

Having a 7 day count down is very very annoying, I’ve saved up for over a year to have the slightest attempt to compete in a jelly auction and now it’s virtually stopped that until I can cash them in. Just feels like it’s another way to hinder f2p who have to save for months to complete

[onyx canyon]

The skin u can get, is for the normal lvl 34 ent

[bitter hearth]

you have Epic 34 enterprise D skin free too, is under non pay line i think day 12, and you have for pay skin For ent A in premium battle pass why complain ?

[rich belfry]

new battle pass ... better rewards ... “But when does it come?”…. Color alone is not enough. or do you mean that seriously?!…. Alliance, alloy….

People ... your sharp ideas for that ... "with all due respect" .... you can't get rid of "the things". not even then… when I am 100 years old….

[cursive flume]

Cloaking is almost perfect. In real Star Trek Klingons and romulans can’t fire their weapons cloaked. Surprise attacks yes but they have to be decloacked to fire.

[midnight pewter]

Scopely have actually given cloaked ships a dmg boost when attacking. I get the feeling noone involved with this game has ever watched more than half of an episode of star trek 😆

[whole nexus]

Yeah. Should have been for first turn only.

[cursive flume]

For real. I’m pretty sure half might be overkill

[midnight pewter]

@cursive flume i've come to accept them getting everthing backwards. The botany bay was a pre warp nuclear vessel. But mine in game is warp 14 🤣

[whole nexus]

I mean, they did rebuild it.

So i can only assume they slapped some impulse-powered drive into it to give them warp capability.

[spring delta]

While I think cloaking was a good idea to bring into the game. I do think Scopely took it too far. Hiding tags IMO was a bad idea. Many will try to take advantage of it and I don't blame them. Even in the shows and movies when firing on a target the ships lost their cloak so the ship being attacked eventually knew who was attacking them.

[midnight pewter]

It wasn't just a matter of losing their cloak, cloaked ships could not charge weapons or raise shields. The idea of a cloak giving a dmg boost that lasts the entire battle is just stupid.

[restive elbow]

A SMALL dmg boost on first shot makes sense for the surprise readiness element... But the way its implement it just allows exploitation... And breaks logic

[worthy pagoda]

Why would scopely take all our tickets we had saved up? What a joke

They’re not even in My item shop anymore

[glad cradle]

I still have all of my tickets

[burnt marsh]

Excomp failed, they didn't work, fire the code monkey, or hire a qualified orangutan.

[last nest]

Exo camp are trash they do it off of base level amount

[queen thunder]

Ferengi Rule of Acquisition

[wise notch]

Anyone know if cloaking devices can be installed on hijacked ships?

[worthy pagoda]

Did anyone know they changed dailies?

I now have to kill 45s(don’t think I can get there) and mine 125k and I’m still 170mil from glorified

[glad cradle]

No it can't. Highjacked ships are not considered a faction ship.

[stable surge]

Does anyone know the different faction hostile lv range as my rep goes up?

[wise notch]

thanks for the fast feedback

[shadow wharf]

Goals go up at 260 mil mark. Then again at Glorified (although your mining goals are now maxed out).

[shell root]

In general, it goes up by 2s, so if you were hitting 36s and 37s, now you hit 38s and 39s. It changes when the rep goes up, and generally at the midpoint of climbing through that level.

[devout quiver]

Apparently alliance exocomps are available for players lv 46+ only can anyone confirm?

Because that's dumb if it is. The higher levels don't need the buffs as much as the lowers

[shell root]

The building shows a 4th exocomp unlocking at level 35. I assume that is the alliance one since there are only 4 types.

[prisma helm]

Alliance exocomps are separate.

Only players over a certain level can get them, but they affect everyone in the alliance.

[shell root]

Since you can only have 1 of each type active, I assumed the 4th one at 35 would have been for that. Not sure what you use of that 4th one is otherwise then.

But the building would have to be upgraded to that level to show it based on the other ones showing up.

[crude sandal]

4th one is the multipurpose exocomp, so you can run an additional exo of the same type, yes

[devout quiver]

I understand how they unlock on a personal account level, but I want to know how to obtain the alliance ones. Because rumor is they are only able to be gained by players 46+

If you are going to make an ALLIANCE exocomp, make it so the ENTIRE alliance can get it. Not just the top players who have rushed up.

[regal aurora]

??

[dusk palm]

It’s super sweet that the further the regular folks get to topping out the further scopely moves the ring away from the carousel.

[hollow pike]

Only players 46 and up can get them, but when activated, they are active for everyone in the alliance

[molten inlet]

what is the point of having those RSS genberators if im ALWAYs over the limit??? please adjust

[nova sierra]

so that u can get raided

thats the point

[dusty fulcrum]

How can a cloaked attacker know if his name and alliance were hidden from the person being attacked? Shouldn’t there be some sort of informational message in the attacker’s battle log indicating whether or not the cloaking was successful?

[lavish dagger]

so why can't we speed up scrapping, everything else can have speed ups applied, makes no sense

[crude sandal]

Missions like this are tedious enough without having to clear through chaff hostiles.
It's not challenging or interesting, just long winded.

If you set a level of hostile to kill in a specific system, please consider making the minimum level of hostile in that system.

Usually it's level or location limited, not both.

[whole nexus]

Because that would let you convert latinum into higher mats.

[lavish dagger]

You're still getting the higher mats anyway so why not let you speed it up and spend the mats. Its in their benefit in the long run

[whole nexus]

It makes sense. I make no claim to it being good sense.

[weary coral]

Can you please stop making me close the "news channel" every time I open the game? It's annoying enough I'm about to delete you.

[crude sandal]

News channel? You mean the one that obscures the help button, or something else?

[weary coral]

Yes, that is it. It's there every time I restart the game no mater how many times I look at it. It is just annoying, but becoming increasingly annoying. I know where to go to look at it when I want to.

[crude sandal]

It's usually quiet week on week, just that it's the first few days of the arc, so news is being put out /updated /fixed on the reg

[glad cradle]

That doesn't stop it from being annoying.

[worthy pagoda]

Come on scopely when are you going to fix the peoples dailies that are screwed up? I can’t do my hostile dailies so I’m losing a ton of rep?

And that ore event? I’m not wasting those tickets when you’re not offering the Explorer parts that’s a waste

[edgy harness]

Nothing wrong with dailies, check your rep, likely pushed past a threshold for points. Either drop rep or think about how to actually finish the new daily, it’s possible, and has been there since the start of the game.

[sinful wasp]

Why do you private messages in the game reset every day?!? Makes it hard to forge relationships.

[nova sierra]

Anyone else see the English fail here? Lol

[nova sierra]

Jaylah was added to the game 2-3 years ago and was unobtainable for the majority of that time. There was 1 event during 1 arc to earn shards for her, which was un-doable for most people. Radio silence since

When are we going to have a means to unlock her? I only need 12 more shards since that arc many months ago. It’s infuriating it’s taking this long

Ditto for the disco officers. Badly need georgiou, I sometimes get 1 shard as a result of those officer packs. Again horrifically slow unlock. At that rate the prospects of a maxed officer are not possible in a lifetime

[midnight pewter]

Not true. If you pull 1 shard a week from disco recruits you can max georgiou in around 20 years 😃

[last nest]

and you all will be dead in 20 years

so hes correct

[unreal aspen]

FFS - Stop making missions that require killing mobs in a sector that is at the same level as the sector or higher.

Korok, kill 15 L30+ ships... A sector that is L30... so it will have L29 ships...

You have done this multiple times and it is rather stupid to do large number of kills when most people are stuck with invalid mobs and no one willing to hit them.

[nova sierra]

Just jump to a single higher system. Much faster. Nothing funnier or more maddening to watch a system FULL of blue ships, 10K lvl 29 ships all over, and the moment you pop a couple of them the dormant scabs suddenly come to life and hit the 30's that spawn.

Next one that happens to me, Im bringing in 6 warships and just killing every blue ship in the system.

THEN I will hit some 29's so the 30's spawn 🤣

[nova sierra]

Only way to get Jaylah shards is run Swarmadas. As the runner sometimes you get shards (lately tho that drop rate has been minimal to none), but it was one way to get them at a glacial pace.

[nova sierra]

Didn’t know that, thanks.

No chance will I be popping rare armadas for a small chance of getting one though. That’s insane. Should be earned through killing swarm reds

[unreal aspen]

You do realize... The mission requires you to KILL 15 L30+ ships... IN KOROK. Not just 15 L30+ ships. Specifically in KOROK.

Plus I have no problems killing Lxx+ ships in a mission. It is Killing Lxx+ ships in a specified Lxx system. That is what irritates me.

[sonic burrow]

This is so dumb. Please fix this, really ridiculous having the entire server hunt for L30 hostiles (x15) in a single system, and it's a system populated by L29's!

[dark silo]

How come for the new away team stuff. You can't get Stella bps? Bit sad as some people on my server have 4 of them. No way am I paying £45.99 for a Stella unlock when they were given away for free

[last jacinth]

So kill the 29 placeholders and get the 30 and 31 ships to spawn, like everyone else

the mission is cardassian-centric. hence the zone-specific kill requirement

[nova sierra]

Ah true. Agreed. Forces everyone to smash 29’s and pick the 30’s that spawn closest. Everyone has to pitch in. But yes - very stupid move by Scopely.

Still. The ones that do nothing but sit and wait I still wanna kill… that hasn’t changed.

[midnight pewter]

If you grind exchange transports with whatever ship you have you can exchange them for stella bp's daily in the outlaw faction store, no need to spend. I assume this feature still exists.

[proud prawn]

It takes time for some to spawn

[rustic phoenix]

Whoever determines the math on these exocomp buffs needs fired.

100% added to 24K should be 48K.
@twilit mango

[clear shuttle]

Additive bonuses

Opaf way of making bonuses useless

[prisma helm]

You have 3 officers improving the protected cargo too. Plus any research or other buffs. they aren't improved by the exocomp. The exocomp bonus is calculated on your base ship PC before any of those buffs are applied to it. The exocomp doesn't buff your officers or research, or anything else.

[lucid zodiac]

The cloaking refit for the D3 & Legionary, would be nice if it also covered the Augment Hijacked versions. This oversight is definitely making getting them less attractive when considering the regular versions don't need Plutonium.

[tired swift]

Basically rewards are poor and not worth the hoop jumping. That is all.

[thick silo]

If you want us to kill hostiles in a specific system, be sure to set the level to the lowest that system spawns.

It annoys players to have to kill 30+ in specific system that also spawns 29s.

Because all other players are also killing 30+ leaves loads of 29s

So if you take time to clear spawns somebody else gets head start on the new 30 spawn.

[tired swift]

My primary issue with STFC is that folks are paying Scopely good money and not receiving their money's worth. For some inexplicable reason, we can't get good numbers for Armadas without manual refresh. This is basic and simple, Scopely should be ashamed that they can't accomplish this basic function. I just want accurate numbers, is that so hard? Then you persist in making the game even more complicated when you still can't get the basics right. Do you really think i have time for this bs? You haven't earned/ nor do you deserve my money. Why don't you try earning it by making this stuff work properly?

[glad cradle]

PSA: Anyone that uses Twitch should change their password IMMEDIATELY! I have Norton 360 and received an email alert from them, that Twitch had a data breach. It didn’t specify a date, but it wasn’t confirmed that personal information was taken. In addition to changing your password, the article on the breach suggests, that you should enable two-factor authentication.

[loud cove]

Scopely... you have really F'ed up this game. The fun train left the station a long time ago. And frankly I don't even think you are even reading all our comments via your endless surveys. We are all just wasting our time and energy telling you collectively how to make the game fun for all players. But it's clear you only have one interest in catering to: The Uber Whales. As long as these select individuals are happy, you could care less in screwing over @everyone else across all your multiple servers. I will probably not be the last to say this, but your continued lack of providing fair pvp is really just idiotic and appalling. With the added ops lvls beyond 50 (and frankly even before this) there is no freaking way that a potential scenario of my 36 ops lvl even remotely being able to compete with a 54 ops lvl in Territories. Let alone have fun doing it. Then compound that with potentially multiple players beyond lvl 50, well you do the math (oh wait, nevermind... you also have proven you suck at that too). Territories has been an utter failure in terms of fun and fairness since it is the only place that any ops lvl can hit all ops lvls. All I can say is that we have been telling you that the PVP ranges SUCK for a long time, and now your failure to accurately address it is now showing the fruits of your ignorance. Just to paint the picture better, yes this is what a potential situation could look like with me having to compete (no wait... that's not right.... automatically forfeit) against an Uber Whale. This is not right. And to everyone reading this, this is the group that Scopely is actually listening to. They could care less on what we all say. The words and packs we all buy are just gravy to their real source of customer feedback.

[rustic hamlet]

Where's the jelly auction?

[true zealot]

Thanks for adding new systems with higher lvl hostiles not in dark space. The 64 warp to get there...chefs kiss.

[rustic phoenix]

Clearly Scopely is dominated by men.
A 50% off sale = 50% off the lowest price on the tag.

I jest…

Or do I?

🤔

[thick linden]

I’ve gone from hard to kill bosses 130-150k to 300k + have I missed something because I’ve been trying to grind my ships up but I’m getting no where

[dire orchid]

So for ages I begged Scopely to finally add the cloaking devices that were wrongly omitted from Rom and Klingon ships in the first place. Without them, they were just like Fed ships but with far less benefits. Now yay! We can BUY them. For a 100 bucks a ship. Scopely, again you prove nothing else than you’re only greedy bastards and fail at even serve us a stable game which doesn’t crash every goddamn 5 minutes. And all the time consumed in doing events ans missions with sucky and crappy rewards. No value for money. I decided to not trust you anymore and just hate you. Period.

[crude sandal]

Faction store for credits, starting from next month fyi

[dire orchid]

What does that mean?

[prisma helm]

You'll be able to get them in the Rom and Klingon faction stores. The same way as you get ship BPs

[last nest]

but expect it to be 5x the cost of most things with a cool down of course

[west tendon]

That’s not even anyone from our server, @loud cove

[loud cove]

No duh. Re-read the post again @west tendon

[plucky hill]

Scroatley are a, bunch of cheapskates who seem to employ idiots to run support.... Another £17.99 lost in the system..... You tell them you had to buy the same item twice once on Google and once on XSOLLA..... And only get one.... They can't understand......... Just got the D3 cloak..... Can't fit to the hijacked D3..... Idiocracy run by cheapskate Morons.

[clear shuttle]

please remove the number icon over the "ships" tab it's annoying

I'm level 22 and I can already build a second Kehra

like what's the point

[median mirage]

It's all about the Benjamin's (or whomever is on your local high denomination currency). What's sick? The balance of pay to play vs free to play for ... well, everything... was handled MUCH MUCH better in your LOONEY TUNES game over this money grab. And that one you still managed to f over long time users on after resetting game story and resetting everyone's progress (though not, thank Deity, levels).

Toodles.

[drowsy sierra]

In Alliance diplomacy…what is the difference between friendly and allied?

[prisma helm]

Whatever you want it to mean. It's for your alliance to decide.

[wide kestrel]

Why is this even here? .....This is basically how scopely views our spending ability for basically nothing...just how many idiots paid for this so far?

[cobalt shadow]

Holy crap that guy has 1.4 quadrillion tier

Trit*

[whole nexus]

Typically, friendly is non-aggression, while alliance is active assistance.

[static wagon]

Really? This is the best graphic you can give?!

[drowsy sierra]

@whole nexus It would nice if it could go a bit further. Maybe Allied could participate in armadas and sit on nodes during territory captures.

[fair umbra]

I saved a ton of daily loyalty tokens to open at the next ops level, now I have a 6 day+ cooldown to make pulls?? Assuming no cooldown at the 30 day chests, that means it will take me well over two months just to get through the tokens I already have. Why the cool down??? Who does this help? Why no warning? I saved for nearly a year to get all these and its ruined by poor decisions. "Loyalty" is peak irony.

[swift steppe]

Once again active online and yet received no indication that my station was under attack, only 13 min this time at least

[lucid zodiac]

Great job Scopely, this Act of War event has been such a winner, over a third of our alliance members that are friendly with the Klingons have been put on the Romulan side by you guys, while most of our Romulan supporters have been given the Klingon side to represent. Checking around our server, this has been a fairly common issue, so it didn't come as a shock to me that neither side is likely to complete the event at our current pace. I know some will point out, but they gave us a bunch of systems to smash the enemy side for the event & it doesn't affect your rep there, which is great if you were wanting a mega increase to screen time, so much for that promise of less screen time needed. I was lucky I'm with the Klingons for the event & friendly with them, so I could do my daily rep grind as part of my attempt to help with the score, but I can understand why some might have just given this a miss. All in all, the Act of War event gets: 👎 👎 👎 👎 👎

Maybe the smarter thing to do here would have been to let us pick our side?

[whole nexus]

Ditto. Set up was really shoddy.

Although putting it in events feedback would make more sense.

[rough belfry]

This is just ridiculous. More than twice as strong and yet the base was cracked in 1 hit while dealing less than half hull damage to the ship.

Scopely needs to let us have station officers to help defend.

[spring badger]

You’re level 23. He is lvl 29. Power isn’t everything, his research is vastly superior to yours

[rough belfry]

Also the officer abilities.

Having our own officers to help counter would be a big help.

[spring badger]

At level 35 for example you get a research that boosts your defence capabilities by 50% at tier 1

[rough belfry]

That is my point.

[spring badger]

You need to put your ships in your base defend that’s how you assign your officers

But the simple fact is if you were shielded you wouldn’t have been attacked. There’s a saying on the server I am on. “Shield or Share”

[rough belfry]

I know that but I should also be able to use my ships instead of just leaving one idle at home.

Also that was the first attack. The free bubble came up after that hit.

[rough belfry]

Also can't shield if I don't get the notice in time. Also can't be shielded to hit opc miners and such.

The base defenses needed to actually matter.

[ripe jetty]

A mission with a fed target and a fed vessel shown! wtf? did i miss something?

[clear shuttle]

there is clearly a bug

it's supposed to be a B'Rel-class bird of prey

[tame dove]

As someone with a maxed station and nearly maxed research for my ops lvl these events are extremely difficult to complete...I don't have much more power I can pull out before needing to upgrade ops, and need to save before going up again so I can actually do research etc. at the next ops level...The other option for ofcs has ambiguous wording with "gain power from officers" is that spending ofc xp? Promoting ofcs? Unlocking new ofc? Just upgrading them in general? What does that mean?

[paper kindle]

As i understand and have seen its based on the stats of your officers and how much they gain when lvled. Unlocking would gain power as 0 stats to lvl 1 stats would be a gain

[tame dove]

thank you...heres hoping i can somehow find that much ofc xp or recruit shards to at least complete the milestone 🤞. Happy Saturday

[fleet mist]

This is what I gained promoted and leveled up once samevofficer

-12m points while last milestone is 956k. Great job scopely 👏👏

[sonic venture]

Yep, saw the same thing with mine...

[fleet mist]

Another question is how to gain power from officers if promoting and leveling them up gives negative points? Always thought this is the only way to make officers stronger (gain power)

[paper kindle]

Research is your best bet for event especially new research

[clear shuttle]

Someone at Scopely can’t distinguish between plus and minus

[paper kindle]

Officer Promotion would be 0 points as it adds 0 stats

[clear shuttle]

It actually does count, just in the opposite direction

[paper kindle]

Ouch

[clear shuttle]

Something something sign flipped

So tell me how this works scroatley.....????? Unfeckinbelievablely scroatley

[supple lotus]

I’m on Server 33. The scoring for the honor guard warf is completely screwed up!!! I upgraded defense platform D to level 35 and got the 4+ million points, which is correct. But I just promoted Kang and Charvanik to tier 3 and upgraded them to level 15, and upgraded Marcus 16-20… all my points except for 13k are gone now?!?! Wth!!!! It says 5 points per officer intel spent, not minus 5!!!

[noble widget]

Anyone get a list of lvl 39 rare alliance chest please

[supple lotus]

Son of Mogh and Display of Dominance are completely screwed up

[fast gulch]

Why put off til tomorrow what you can do today!

[hard cypress]

So 5 shard in the chest to compensate for all the XP, rss, speed ups, lat, … used for those events. How about a full unlock?

[supple lotus]

It can’t be that hard scopely. Give us back our shit or just admit you fucked this up big time and give us a full unlock. This is bullshit

[tame dove]

i dont think we should get a full unlock but this mistake, which is wholly their own, should not jeopardize the previous announcement/plan that everyone would be able to unlock epic Worf. 5 shards doesnt bridge that gap unless future events are going to have increased shards

[hollow smelt]

how do u mean "we are going to remove the event"? what about loads of rss I spent to participate in this event up until now? not to mention that I was holding on important upgrades which I just started pushing and this is now also spent in vain. so 5 shard as compensation for all this... this is ridiculous...

[supple lotus]

I want them to remove the minus points they sunk so many of us with!!! There is no way they can’t just reverse that flow of points. You don’t have to remove a portion of the event that helps you score—you have to remove the negative points! It’s so easy. Just toggle the other way. That would make everyone whole again and place them where they should be on the points board! If someone assumed the points came from Officer XP and not Officer power (which officers get every single time the level up anyway) then that’s on them. But give us positive points only!!!

[analog tartan]

Why are G4 chests so bad? I get more directives, speed ups, etc out of the regular chests. And don’t say the g4 ship bps justify it because the actual reward rate on those are bad too

[mild kestrel]

Dear Scopely,
I am getting really freaking tired of sending a miner into hostile space because that's where the resource I need to mine is available, only to have a hostile fighter spawn DIRECTLY ON TOP OF IT after it comes to rest. That is just not remotely fair. You might as well just have the miner sometimes randomly blow up the moment it undocks and save us the wait for the trip.
kthxbye.

(Fortunately I'm dual-faction and I have lots of repair speedups.)

[stuck sapphire]

I don't get why "Hijacked" versions of D3 and Legionary don't have cloaking devices?

[sinful wasp]

When are the new servers going to get their own channels? I'm in server 70, but the US server specific channels stop at 69. 🤣

[midnight lava]

So scopely let me get this straight I should spend 51 rare material and as a rewards I get only 2 back? Yea sounds like you want the whales to win and everyone else to quit the game hey….

[primal lake]

CLOAKED SHIPS - Scopley you're going to be losing A LOT of customers. Many people play for fun, not to be defiled and ganked by cloaked ships 24/7. In the Star Trek series, clocked ships CANNOT SHIELD. When a cloaked ship attacks, it should have a 2-3 second delay where shield is not fully functional so if someone spots them decloaking, they can fire/attack that cloaked ship quickly. People did not play the game so they get their asses handed to them from cloaked ships hitting them at the last second on hard earned armada durations and directives.

My recommendation would be to have a cloaked ship delay an attack by 2-3 seconds, and if the defender does nothing, THEN the cloaked ship will get an attack bonus, but if the defender sees the uncloaking and instead initiates the attack on the cloaked ship, the cloaked ship should then be at a disadvantage without proper shielding.

What you've done is simply allowed grivers to ruin the game and ensure people quit so you lose money. Enjoy some short term money from grievers buying cloaks. Wait until the bulk of your players all quit.

[dusk river]

Told in new it a material and armada spend but launches a domination style event

[true rapids]

Per the screenshots you posted, the SMS is Armada and Material Spend, but the SLB is Power

[dusk river]

Still feel we being stuff over as free to play as it hard to gain power when officer and ship XP not counting for event and knowing all the power increases for each research or station isn't a clear how much resources we going to have to throw at it to get top spot? At least with material we could roughly work it out

[pliant latch]

How is it that a level 47 can hit me a level 31, yet i cannot hit anything below 25?

[slender fulcrum]

@mild kestrel just fly with 2 ships with a delay of 5 seconds (Miner 2nd ship) and then, when fighter starts moving to you (1st ship) , recall 1st ship. This works from beginning of the game

[prisma helm]

The event isn't being removed. Only officer power has been removed. The rest of the event is continuing as normal

There was a typo on my post. The event is not being removed. It's continuing with full rewards and points for research, station and defence

[lapis widget]

Noticed the D3 cloak shard doesn't apply to the Hijacked D3? Wtf?

[slender fulcrum]

Hey Scopely, mistakes happen ... It's annoying but human. What does not work, however, is your company policy. This is fooling around the player. If you make mistakes (which can happen), then stand by and repair them accordingly on the part of the programming and on the part of understanding and trust in the player. To end your faux pas with a ridiculous 5 worf chards is a slap in the face

[slender fulcrum]

The cloak shard doesn't work on any hijacked ship because they are no faction ships

[lapis widget]

Ty sir!

[crystal quail]

a " ? " icon on systems where we can find missions would be cool...

[scarlet shuttle]

increase interceptor parts rate 100 percengt sheesh. It'll take forever to get phindra to lv35

[noble compass]

Which is nonsense. They have exactly same abilities and since they're actually repainted faction ships cloacking should be available to use on them. They also should be scrap able

[slender fulcrum]

That's correct. One of the not-thinking-things-to-the-end-thing powered by Scopely

[mild kestrel]

@slender fulcrum I'm well aware of that trick (the warp cloaking decoy method). I'm also well aware of the sensor-ghost method. Neither of them work when the fighter spawns directly on top of your ship.
(THAT's the part I was objecting to. Insta-kill with no chance whatsoever to evade because the fighter spawns already inside combat radius.)

I completed ops 30, academy 30, ACC 30, two substantial ship upgrades, and tiered up a warship, and it didn't get me to the first milestone in Domination Ha Ha Ha As If.

[mild kestrel]

Phindra? You think leveling the Phindra is bad, wait until you get a Saladin, D3, or Vi'Dar.

[rocky trellis]

I JUST got the October Events dropped in my in-game newsfeed 4 days and 5 hours after so many others received it putting me and my alliance members at a distinct disadvantage since the same article was not in all that time posted to the STFC news on the official website.

This reply is unacceptable, so I will be changing from a dolphin to a full turtle until Scopely stops screwing players under level 26. Not spending my money on a game that treats paying customers like this.

This is utter garbage.

[dark silo]

@midnight pewter no you can't get them from the faction store. Only armada tokens and reputation

[sour pivot]

Suggestion: If it was made before I apologize. One issue I see is when assigning Away Teams to the mission que, it lists the traits needed to succeed in the mission, but the crew do not show the traits anywhere in their crew card selection, just a dot and you have to keep removing and adding to match one up. They are displayed in the crew preview screen and players either have to remember the trait or go back and forth. I would either list the trait in a sort of transparent overlay, (like it says ruthless/relentless or whatever the trait is someplace on the crew picture) or I did notice the dot color different, but its hard to determine what traits match without seeing it. Something to indicate the trait for convenience and easy management. Thank you guys and remember just a suggestion.

[midnight pewter]

What message are you repling too? I cant find it and cant remember writing here 😅

[nova sierra]

The away missions traits are listed in a 2x2 matrix on the right and the location of the dots in the officer roaster matches that matrix. With this you can determine the officer trait that matches a given dot.

[sour pivot]

@nova sierra It matches the trait tree, and I assumed the color change means it matches to trait, correct?

[nova sierra]

You got it

Well to be more specific, is blue if the trait is unlocked and matches

Is white if locked and matches

[spark bone]

Not sure how I can prove to Rev that I'm a level 7 player and can reach all 3 factions to mine G3 minerals...he doesn't believe me...

I can send a screenshot...if I know how...

[mild kestrel]

OK, who else has noticed that it has suddenly become MASSIVELY harder to get to 100% success chance (and a multiplier above 1x) on away teams? I have not managed to get above a 1x multiplier on an away team assignment in three days.

[loud cove]

Way to go Scopely... just way to screw up.

[prisma helm]

Did you upgrade your Ops? I noticed mine got more difficult to get to 100% after upgrading my ops level.

[tired lion]

Pure gas/cyrstal/ore researches in the galaxy tree does not working.They are not reducing required amount of related material for upgrade items on the ships😡

[nova sierra]

not faction ship‽ but yet...

[nova sierra]

not faction ships? but yet...

sorry, scopy's excuse for not giving them cloaking is completely bs, they are vessels the augments hijacked, what, did khan think, cloaking devices, that's not very sporting, let's just throw that in the recycle bin? yeah, right, nope.. khan would have set his peeps to work figuring out that device so the rest of augment fleet would have cloaking too, if anything the scopy would be fully justified giving the hijacked mayflower a cloaking device too.

[prisma helm]

They are considering adding cloak to those hijacked ships for exactly the reasons you've said.

[hollow pike]

Unlocked the khan mission from the outlaw research tree earlier and it seems to be about khan and his crew stealing Klingon cloaking technology 😂

[grim lynx]

Why doesn't the Cloak also work on hijacked versions of ship.? In my opinion it should

Only reason i exchange my token for Legionary is I have the hijacked version else i would have taken the D3 since I scrapped the others

[crude sandal]

That was, unfortunate, it's not like they gave a full list of what it was available for in the patch notes, though...

[grim lynx]

No point on a ship i use purely to scrap

[crude sandal]

Well, it unlocks for all ships of that type, you're not limited on how many times you equip it - just like all the other refits

And it was free...

well, minus whatever value you attributed to it from the battlepass unlock

So, you can use it to complete the next run of the cloak milestone

or not

and then scrap when ready

That's exactly what I'm doing - just on a D3 because it's 4* crystal I need most of right now

[slender fulcrum]

Just to clarify: I meant that scopely's game mechanics do not consider or classify them as faction ships - which is complete nonsense.
I completely agree with you

[sullen matrix]

opened 41 Premium Packs, got 4 Chen shards. One of the most important "uncommon" officers and you almost cant get her. I wish i could spend patterns on her

[random crane]

Seriously Scopely, if you're gonna include Cardassians as NPCs and part of the story arcs, at least use actual Cardassian ships!

[kindred mauve]

Anyone know how long it takes a new server to get a section? They're on server 71 but the list for US servers stops at 69.

[lost prawn]

@kindred mauve wait a few years I'm sure scopely will get around to it by then

[plush bay]

Can we please get the Raw Intelligence pack back? That was there then gone and hauling my ship 20+minutes to accomplish one meet and greet mission task is annoying as hell.
No, I don’t have a Discovery that I’m willing to use over and over for junkiness

[maiden cliff]

Hello Scopely: Why does the Kelvin Enterprise looks nice and why you made the Enterprise D skin so ugly, low pixel/poly and like scrap?!?

[flint kindle]

So I have multiple issues for 2 months making it impossible for me to build, upgrade, join events and more and I keep getting told to wait. Then when I ask for any kind of compensation I get told no and they end the ticket...... FANTASTIC CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!!

[mild kestrel]

Yeah, I just hit level 30. If this is a level difficulty step in away teams it's an absurdly steep one. It is literally as though all of a sudden all of my officers are HALF as effective in away teams as they were three days ago.

[mild kestrel]

I just managed to get a Collective Bargaining away team to 1.12x. To do it I had to pull my three highest-health officers out of my best crews. That's ridiculous. Away Teams was supposed to be a feature to put your idle officers to use, not a feature to deny you the use of your BEST ones.

[placid ermine]

Epic armada loot chests should not include hijacked ship bp... Unless maybe it's the full set. This double chest is disappointing, in regards to bp's. I have the augur, don't need more bp for a scrapper for at least 3-5 levels.

Of course, i the scrapyard levels were added on the ship drawer, like the shipyard to build...

[untold bloom]

Any idea when the iOS client will be updated for iphone 13 pro max?

[true otter]

any one can share what is the maximum level user can reach in stfc?The left side number on the profile image i am asking about

They're so fail that they don't even use kehra, npc not-kehra, and phindra with yellow phasers as placeholders.

[nova sierra]

You can’t scrap hijacked ships

[nova sierra]

60

*on most servers

[true otter]

you mean the left side of profile the number is displayed can be maximum to 60 ?

[whole nexus]

Honestly, a level 35 max level would prolly be more fun...

[nova sierra]

Yes

[true otter]

ok

that is level of player or the overall level it is ?

[nova sierra]

The number is the same as the level of your operations building

[true otter]

ok

[nova sierra]

And that is what most things are tied to. What events, what dailies, etc

[true otter]

ok

[whole nexus]

And most everything else is tied to various faction levels.

[nova sierra]

Yep

[placid ermine]

Yes, I know. I was referring to the augur mentioned. Thx for reading . :)

This isn't the player help channel. It's the feedback to Scopley channel. :)

[timid shoal]

I think if a cloak ship enters an armada right it should be decloaked.

ECCM - should give you a chance to attack a cloak ship before it decloaks to attack you. New Research would be nice to provide something to help against cloaked ships.

Decloaking per the cannon of ST they have to come out of cloak to attack. There should be a few (3sec?) seconds before the cloak can actually attack

[nova sierra]

Oh geez im so sorry 😱 fyi you won’t need an augur scrapper until ops 50

[shut creek]

As an Level 20 Player armadas for Event, to reach 75k points???????? i cannot install Armada factory.........🤦

[hollow pike]

You can still participate in them with your alliance

[shut creek]

Hahaha Server since two weeks active....from 60 players are only 4 OPS 20 and higher

[hollow pike]

Maybe not, then 😂

[gritty trellis]

Nope. When you will be in war with stronger alliance, you will value stealthy armadas while having to do armada for event.

Also you will value possibility to disrupt opponent armada by killing armada host just before countdown.

Buy yourself cloak and get some fun.

Can you please put the vidar in the store before the stonn event that requires it? To give the 25-27 a chance?

Hi there. I've been extremely frustrated by the inability to cash in refit tracker shards earned with significant investment at the end of the TOS arc. I have 72 of them! So close, but they are now useless despite being brought in as a reward to get TOS refits. When can we use these???

[untold bloom]

sooo how about that client update for iphone 13 pro max displays...? anytime soon? 😦

[dull knoll]

Language preferences. I should see only English if I select English. If someone starts an armada, they should see the language they select and I should see what I select.

[nova sierra]

Your online store is a rip off.

I support the idea of standing up to Apple and not letting them take such a big chunk of your profits (over inflated as they may be) however any sympathy I had was destroyed when I logged in to see the normal battle pass is £17.99 and on the online store it’s £18.49.

Now I realise that it’s only £0.50p however the principal remains. If it was the normal £17.99 you still would be making more money than from an Apple purchase however you have put the price up. Why? What incentive do I have to spend 50p more so you can get even more money? As a result if and it’s a big IF!!!!! I buy a battle pass again (I haven’t for quite a while) then I’ll be getting it from the Apple store and not the online store.

And incase someone mentions multiphasic credits, nope I don’t buy enough for that to even be worth it.

DANKPOOL OUT 🎤

[sharp relic]

In the Annexation Mission from the planet Candor in the Aipha Onias section we are requested by the Romulan Empire to destroy 15 hostile independent ships of level 35+ in that system to win the system for the Romulan Empire. That is o.k. except for the fact that all the hostile ships in that system are Romulan Patrol vessels not hostile independents! Destroying the Romulan ships fulfils the game requirements for the mission but it is yet another example of where the script writers and the programmers have not co-operated to produce a logical task.

[chrome cape]

Shatner in Space was a great gift and good play for a Star Trek game. Scopely, you guys get new management or something? Good arc, good rewards, good spiffs....hmmmmm

[rich cypress]

Great arc. Free skin, $20 cloaking, Shatner shards, no P2w auction - awesome! Excellent!

[gritty barn]

Why not have refines available immediately?

[shell root]

This is to allow people time to power mine if they dont have large stocks ready. I'm glad they do it this way.

I personally have more that I know what to do with unrefined, but many dont.

[gritty barn]

Hm.Just 2 bonus ref pulls tho.Wasn't the last one more than that?I think I remember 3-4 bonus ref pulls last time.

[shell root]

It was, but it was payback for a major game problem that time.

It's also back sooner than we have been seeing it which is also nice.

[gritty barn]

Wait I just realized it'll be 3 bonus pulls. Brain fart.

Anyway, I have plenty of unrefined to feed it.I'm glad it's here.

[lucid fern]

The mats it takes to complete the sms Stonn event is ridiculous for 40+ players. Not to mention between worf and stonn there are 4 of them within the 20 day arc. Who thought this would be a good idea?

As someone who doesn't have any TOS. When can we expect some kind of Officer sourcing? There is no possible way of getting a lot of Officers. TOS Kirk & Jaylah for example.

[light silo]

Yea that one too lol

ty for the bonus refinery 🙂

[finite barn]

This Event Arc is fine one from my point of view.... but why are the Augment Variants of Legionär and D3 not included when activating the Ability to cloak your Ship as Example D3. That are the nearly the same Ships ... and a good Augment would steal a D3/Legionär with cloaking Device not without one.

[rough belfry]

@scarlet geyser that's not quite what I had in mind. I was wondering what each daynof the battle pass would bring.

Mines that reach 0 in territory space are always some sort alliance internal friction. Therefore I'd like to see miner automatically disengage a mine once it reaches 0. This could be either activated globally or as an alliance option for their territory space.

[thick geyser]

I’m am annoyed due to the cloaking devise. I have a Hijacked Legionary, thinking that the cloaking devise would work for it, it doesn’t and feels like a ripoff.

[edgy harness]

Hijacked ships are a gimmick and poor choice to begin with.

[slim lake]

I wish you could still access ship management (view upgrade options / ship stats / manage crew) while the ship is being repaired / built / tiering up

[coarse oracle]

I don't know about you but I can still view ship stats. I just have to go into the manage screen for another ship and scroll over

[slim lake]

so that covers one of the three but its nice to be able to see what I need for the next upgrade, or to manage crew too

[coarse oracle]

Totally fair. And I wish I could see what my current ships are without having to have a ship docked to do it.

[rough belfry]

Can someone explain why the Anomalous Phenomenon event gives 481 discovery refinery tokens which is (4)-6 chests pulls plus 1 leftover token?

I currently have 5 leftover tokens. At the rate of of 1 leftover token per week it will take years to get an extra pull

[olive wraith]

we need more diplomacy tags. territory and untrustworthy would be nice

[lucid zodiac]

I posted this idea previously.

where's the bonus refinery?? it dissapeared right now 😡😡😡

[woven plover]

yea, and thats pretty crappy with what people had to shell out for the dang stonn event!

[dusky cloak]

Where did bonus refinery go?

[woven plover]

Looks like they yanked it. Spent all the rss for that WAY OVER COST stonn event knowing there was the bonus refinery and then they pull it with < 3 hours to start time. WTG scopely!

[glad cradle]

They just posted that it will be back at event reset; check mod-announcements in this discord.

[nova sierra]

where has the button to access refits gone?

[midnight pewter]

You didn't have to make the ent skin in the battlepass so ugly just because its free.

[olive wraith]

why aren't the skins high def?? they look like shit

[quartz cosmos]

I'm kinda irritated. I earned the 26+ cloak, was offered selections based on my ships, chose, activated, collected tetryons...but the hijacked ships don't have cloaks? What a waste of resources! Why even offer them if you can't use them in events and can't use the cloaks they should have? Augments are people, too!

[olive wraith]

it works only for kln/rom ships. the hijacked are augment

[quartz cosmos]

Augments ships are just kln/rom ships they stole and refitted with plutonium. Why wouldn't they have operational cloaking devices?

[olive wraith]

because they are refitted

[quartz cosmos]

...and if scopely is going to award cloaks based on ship type and offers them for augmented ships in possession, why not give those ships the cloaks, too.

[quartz cosmos]

So? Refitting means no cloak? That seems like a pretty lame excuse...

[olive wraith]

sounds funny i know. but after the refitting the ships are not longer kln/rom

[quartz cosmos]

Then why even bother with augments or augment ships? What a waste of resources! And why offer cloaks to people without cloakable ships? This entire thing is stupid.

Here! Have a legionary that isn't a legionary! Have a cloak you cannot use! Spend time and resources on ships that are worthless is any part of gameplay! Why? What's the purpose in that?

Additionally, cloaking devices are not central to ships' operations and can be taken out and installed on other vessels. The one Quark had was described as a small sphere, and the unit installed on the Defiant was small enough to be carried by a single individual.

[nova sierra]

having the same issue, I have no access to refits anymore.

[prisma helm]

Scopley is looking into adding cloak for hijacked ships 👍

[hollow pike]

There is literally no point to the hijacked ships. They do nothing additional to what the standard versions do, but require extra rss (plutonium) to upgrade and cannot be scrapped later. They are purely for people who like to collect all or as many of the ships as they can.

[quartz cosmos]

They aren't even as useful as the standard. They don't count for faction events, they don't count for officer exchange, they're 100% useless.

[spark finch]

it would be great if they where hostile skins, so that no matter where you went the faction would send hunters at you.

[queen thunder]

After waiting on a 4 DAY Cooldown to collect another item from the Latinum Antique Refinery... Once again I got a stupid Common Transwarp Token. You give these out for free every day! They SHOULD NOT be something that is awarded in the L.A.R.

[ripe maple]

Such a small thing, but what happened to the bonus refinery for other Mat levels. The last 2 bonus refineries had bonus refining options for G2 as well. Normally I wouldn’t care, but since scopley wants me to find 2400 G2 crystal for my 5th dock, it would have been nice to see it available again.

[bronze mortar]

Why is this shit even a thing?!?!?!
Like seriously? Players don’t get „big“ rewards so much and then you dare to just give me 18 shards of trash😡

[timid shoal]

Makes no sense to go against the ST canon. ECCM is the way to go. 🙂

[weary wolf]

Why isn't there some notification that you have a reply from support?

[signal garnet]

Can I just ask why we don't get an announcement when scoplay decide too increase the pack values a simple communication wouldn't go a miss please.

[livid vapor]

Because thats the chance of a the Full officer unlock, and thats how many shards you need for an unlock, hence why its 18 shards...

and hes got good stats too so not useless, def worth levelling up and maxing too.

[vapid notch]

Can we get the free chests back in order. Put the transwarp and Tetryons moved to the right of the 24 hour chest?

[edgy harness]

For a long time now they have even presented augment ships as collector items, that should be a hint. They don’t get any faction research buffs, don’t work for faction events, don’t receive bonus points as a faction ship when grinding rep for those researches, and aren’t scrappable so are a huge waste of rss. What other hints did you need before this that they don’t count as a faction ship?

[quartz cosmos]

Why should they have to count as a faction ship to utilize cloaking technology? The only reason the federation doesn't use them is because of treaties.

[hazy harbor]

I'd love for all mining nodes to behave like they do in the Romulan zone Ferraria. There the node disappears when 0 and a fresh one spawns somewhere in the system. It would encourage more active mining and frees up 0 mines without any discussion if servers have agreements about them.

[stuck delta]

Does the same with lat nodes in Beta Penthe as well.

[stuck delta]

I agree, even the sepretist d3 doesn't get a cloak. Heck if the federation hijacked a Klingon Bird of Prey, they aren't going to uninstall the cloak (re. Botany Bay from Trek 3/4). Personally they need to make the Augment ships scrappable for res plus a augment skin then just phase them out.

[quasi wren]

Dear Scopley. Thank you on so very much for the 24 hr Bonus refinery. I was blessed to receive 187/20 CR, 194/22 Gas, and 206/8 Ore. (Uncommon/rare). Would be able to upgrade a ship possibly in a Month if you can these three times a week. Don't take it the wrong way. I am grateful for the boost. But I feel the amounts in the refineries to start matching requirements needed at ops lvls . Ops 34 soon 35 here. Took me over a month in a half just to upgrade one ship item. I am not looking to be a lil 50 bro for free in 2 months. But the trickle of material received free in game makes progress slower then a snail in 30 degree weather.

[fathom trellis]

Dear Scopely, this was a feature you announced and not a bug. Why was it removed? You've basically made cloaking and going in to hostile territory impossible? Was it so gamebreaking?

[tame dove]

This is textbook deceptive marketing, cloak was advertised as usable in warp...

[nova sierra]

cause 🐳s wailed about those little 🐟 having an easier time stealing their rss in their territories, like how dare they.😂

[fathom trellis]

Well let's face it the cloak drops the second you engage

most people guarding a miner will have a warship right next to it if not under that miner

which means with 1min cooldown you ain't escaping

[prisma helm]

I can't remember it being advertised as being able to cloak during warp. Does anyone have a link or screenshot?

[lyric zealot]

It cloaks in warp.

[proper raft]

The ent D looks awful in space, one nacelle is dead.

[glossy bramble]

Or, you know, stick him on a K'Vort or Horizon and mine Crystal, just a thought 👀. Nvm I missed the point of what you were saying.

I concur, he has very high ATK stats, great for boosting Kang and/or Tyler

[glossy bramble]

Let's be honest the whole thing looks like it was molded out of Playdough.

Or as someone else in AC quipped "Looks like a Macy's Day Parade Balloon"

[proper raft]

Even the damage near the back of the bridge is broken…

[tight maple]

@prisma helm screenshot from Scopley in game help

[prisma helm]

Thanks 👍

[bronze axle]

Warp while cloaked doesn’t mean cloak while warping. All i can guess

Basically they want you to cloak then warp to a system and not be able to do it will mid warp. Which sucks because of the short cloak timer

[stuck delta]

Also Rev did a video showing cloaking in action.. 6.11

https://youtu.be/XNH8pKyiE1w

[stuck delta]

See revs video above... Its been nerfed

[quick coral]

Pvp event bracket needs to be fixed. At ops 35, I am competing in the same pvp system as 40+ players. Their ships are unequivocally stronger than mine and in no way can I "compete" against that.

Yes, the brackets are limited, so I am not in the same SLB as those players, but I am not able to compete against a player that has 4+ levels of buildings/research on me, as well as any additional tiers on their ships.

[spice knot]

would be nice to get some sort of scoreboard for territory takeovers, so its easier to see who was there and who wasnt

one of the common issues with takeovers for more "active" alliances is keeping track of players who attend and dont

[nova sierra]

I'm having tons of issues with lag and crashes on my android phone. Is there a place to find the specs needed to run the game.

[lucid orchid]

#⭐-official-announcements message
Score from ULTRA-RECRUIT chests opened..
Is that because you at scopely want to sell more recruit packs?
Or are we all going to recieve enough Ultra-recruit tokens to get the points?

[hot swallow]

Not able to complete any of the cloaking missions. I am aligned with the federation and none of my ships qualify. I have a Hijacked legionary but it doesn't qualify. This is an issue that needs to be addressed. Each faction should have a cloakable ship. It is not fair to players who are not able to attain the ship required.

[nova sierra]

The bounus refinery came, first didnt show in my refinery, then when it appeared it was in the cool down count down, then it vanished again, raised a ticket but still waiting for a response, after 24 hours of not being available i finally was able to get a pull from it,
Also need to look at the bracketing in slb events, competition against other players is a fair competition if they are so many lvls higher than you. They have beter ships among other things, so have a drastic advantage.

[coarse oracle]

I think if the highjacked ships could cloak that would be a reasonable resolution

[brittle beacon]

We hve been waiting for so long time for this kind of event, and scopply just cancel the Officer Exp. To point this event and the for the next one too…thanks for nothing 😡 #⚡-mod-announcements message

[worthy pagoda]

When are you doing to help out Non-whale alliances and fix territories? When a takeover begins the system should lock to those that haven’t paid the entry fee can’t get into systems. Not sure how other servers are but at sever 16 the “Whales” formed a coalition and kick anyone out of territories that’s not in their “coalition” , it’s such an easy fix why not do it to benefit all your players and not just whales? We have allinces that have never held a territory once. Year the coalition allinces have had all 5 and all 3 particles. Please do something about it before more people quit.

It’s crazy how bad y’all treat mid-low players

MAKE TERRITORIES free for defenses but must buy in to fly into system.

[nova sierra]

Worst online customer support! Over an hour to wait and they come on and disappear and close the ticket! I have opened several tickets and can’t reply back. It’s a hide and seek customer service support! FIRE THEM! Always hide from customers!!

This is a fact!

There is no direct number from the beginning! Hiding! No complaining email! Hiding! Online support over an hour and off with no way of getting back on with support! No manpower or just no support! HIDING! But scopely will take your money fast! Poor planning and poor customer service support! Deal with these issues before coming out with new events that break the app!

[tired lion]

I need 4412 uncommon cyrstal for upgrade armor and rafinery gave me 7…only 7…and 14 unc gas….maybe you should seriously reconsider some outputs and prices..As you see servers are getting low everyday🤔

[stuck delta]

Only 4412? I need 3000 per gun

[tired lion]

What is yr level?..I am 35 and each gun requesting almost same but the point is here,outputs are too low!

[dire coral]

I can give you enough for one upgrade 😘

[tired lion]

I never say no that offer🤣🤣🤣

[dire coral]

That is the reason I ignore my d4 completely. Need those uc and rare crystals for my miners. My Armor needs 10k uc ore. So you know what is coming after the 4412 crystals. 🤣

[tired lion]

Yes but point is here rafinery is not a rafinery..its only a windmill🤣🤣🤣

[reef totem]

My game is super laggy. Unplayable

[mild kestrel]

The change to the Heart of Stonn event is a thoughtful way to give options to players who are having difficulty coming up with enough resource spending to max the Resouirce Deployment event, but I hope that there's some level of either-or involved so that the new event on short notice doesn't screw players who had a Resource Deployment plan but don't have a big stock of Ultra Recruit tokens saved up.

[paper kindle]

Big question on the change is how many pulls do we need to complete

[opaque adder]

Anyone know why they nerved the cloak in warp feature? Feels a bit lame to stop in the system before that, activate cloak and jump to desired system losing the already short cloak time

[stuck delta]

No one knows... Possibly a bug not a feature but really silly

[queen osprey]

Agreed. I stocked up on resources for this, but have no ultra pulls saved. At the very least, make it based on shards gained. Not just ultra pulls.

[lime anvil]

So here is my take on the cloaking. As a paid option for only one month, in itself, does not qualify for the Elite Pass even.

I get 55 Tetryons every 22 hours in a chest, just like the 2 Transwarp tokens chest.

My ship, D3 Scout, T4, Level 20, has a cost per cloak of 25 Tetryons. The cloak itself can last a maximum 3:45 Mins, with a CD of 50 seconds until I can cloak again after I have used up the current cloak. The cloak itself, is only good for ONE battle. So it gives me a buff of buff of weapon damage for that battle with a TWO out of THREE chance the player doesn't know who did it in a battlelog, but can still see you during and after the battle on screen if watching.

Even if using the full time in the cloak for scouting, very limited, but has some advantages too.

So twice per day... that's it, that I can benefit from this. As F2P, it's cool and adds a very small advantage. It isn't as OP as you would think it would be during how much you can do it presently. As a paid option and my funds are limited, I regret that I caved to the hype just to have it one month extra.

[gentle hill]

To me the best thing about the paid option of BP was the extra Worf shards. That’s really what I wanted. But I agree with you 100% on the cloak!

[whole nexus]

Yes. I want my cloaking jacked mayflower!

[north perch]

ISO-RESIN should be placed in the INVENTORY TERRITORY tab and not in the MATERIALS. It's a refinery product of ISOGEN-EMULSION much like ISO-EMULSION are of RAW ISOGEN

[olive wraith]

where's the ultra recruit gone??

[gritty stirrup]

Up up down down left right left right and u unlock it again

[olive wraith]

not funny

how should we do this event without ultra recruit??

[gritty stirrup]

Goku make a Genki Dama and blow it back

[split badger]

All Ultra recruits are also cloaked.

[olive wraith]

i would rather shoot it on scopely HQ. they're all idiots. to dumb to get rid of bugs. to dumb to program the most events. everytime is something broken.

[hallow raft]

General feedback.... Get yer act together scopley!

[woven jay]

Feedback: replacing one rare resource spend with a different rare resource spend is not likely to make players any happier. Also replacing a working event with a broken one, bravo

[silver oar]

Where is my Ultra Recruit button? Very effective way to keep us from playing that event. Well done. Please test SOMETHING!

This is truely ridiculous people.

[worn canyon]

Best event ever

[lilac elbow]

please give advance warning when pack pulls are going to be a goal. Let us have a chance to bank what we need. Or give us an alliance event that will give credits for ultra pulls

[nova sierra]

Cloaking brought interest back after almost deleting the game. Scopley continued bs coding skills and pay for play mentally brings me back to my previous position

[woven jay]

Scoring scale is now at 10k plus to fill up the bar. Event description says recruit from officer crates not ultra. Even if the score is based on usual officer events if we have to score 10k plus from ultra it's even worse than the original version

[lime bough]

It's really impressive how even with simple things a great mess can be done... So what happens now for those who decided to use the Ultras (with your 1x button) paying it for 150 each!?

[prime ibex]

what really bugs me is, that upgrading towers to lvl40 scores more points than upgrading towers to lvl 41…fix that pls…

[ember cairn]

Scopely will never evolve from being greedy ferengi, change my mind.

I've seen this 🐴💩 coming since the release of this arc and I've not put in too much effort in unlocking Worf and/or borgified Stonn. Can't say I disagree with myself when I've seen the horrible events that are being run.

PS if you guys continue on this path of scorched earth, you might end up with lots of players who have no more screen time with this game at all

[modern igloo]

all special event ships available with galaxy tokens. why is it still restricted to franklin, vidar and sarco?

[lilac storm]

Given the repeated messed up roll outs of new content/features it’s time you set up a test server and put all new stuff live there first. Then ONLY when it’s working there can it go to the live servers.

Invite those who’ve volunteered to be testers to play test accounts there.

Clearly what you are doing to test things before they go live isn’t working.

[sly python]

Not sure what changed but the game is much more stable on Apple iPad PadOS, rarely crashes now which is great.

[lucid flume]

just finished the event but no rewards

[lean nymph]

Cloaking. I was just hit mining opc by a cloaked ship, that’s cool. However if a cloaked ship hits me UPC or zero node without warning, there is no one to confront, no alliance to contact. I don’t have a cloaked ship, but if I did, I could attack someone in territory with no ramifications. Is this what was intended? Or is it a outcome not considered. Cloaking was used to get close to an enemy. But you had to uncloak to attack. If this is not true in the game. That is an unfair advantage and causes a breakdown in server roe

[paper kindle]

1/3 chance to get caught its a roll of the dice

[lime anvil]

Plus you only get enough Tetytons a day to only cloak twice (presently), so really, a player that uses cloaking, needs to pick and choose it’s targets.

So really, it’s nothing to write home about.

[placid ermine]

..unless they purchase the cloak for a ship above the L26 shipyard.

Then they get like 400 tetytons.

An augur cloak requires 3 pack purchases...so that's 1200 for them to blow.

Repeating feedback on armada loot chests...
Hijacked ship bp's are not worthy of two epic chest purchases (2000 in loot).

I don't even want them as party favors, thx. :)

[paper kindle]

Apparently no more hijacked at 36 and beyond

[hearty igloo]

Scopely has never liked ROE.

[lean nymph]

Ah well that explains that, it’s going to be ugly

😂😂😂😂

As they say, let the games begin

[balmy kernel]

Well the only thing that prevents this is the fact you can not count on that. Sure 66% is nice but then again if you aren't lucky the defender knows.

[lean nymph]

We shall see

[balmy kernel]

Also the bugs... sometimes players will be displayed as cloaked player afterwards. Or if you are online when the hit happens the pop up displays who hit you even if the report doesn't... not all that reliable

[gray yoke]

thanks for adding the client version number to the bottom LHS of the splash screen

[lilac storm]

I could live with cloaked attack, it’s the not showing in battle logs that I have issues with.

Yup

Good morning 👋

I eant to ask why we get in the 7 and 30 days chest no parts for freighters but for All other ships? Is it possible to put them in this chests too?

Please write me a pm..thanks

[vagrant gyro]

Can you please remove the annoying banners on the main screen when you reach a milestone or gain points from a kill as it obstructs functionality

[fallow wasp]

I had no problem getting borg inert Nanoprobes until some time last week now I seem to be getting half as many, two rounds of killing level 28 borg probes should give me enough as before. 😒. That is sound 54 borg probes. Starting last week I am not getting enough to refine 1 chest of 55,000

[wide kestrel]

Why was my other indi credit refine removed that gave me 72 credits and also my indi double use to be 144 had both until today sometime because I collected both yesterday but now instead of getting 216 i am only going to be getting 156 indi credits not cool since it requires lots to upgrade officers

[crude sandal]

don't think you're meant to have both...

Cool bug in your favour though

[wide kestrel]

Well i did every since they offered prime officers or prime borg i chose prime borg i already had prime officers

[crude sandal]

same here, mine switched over the same time as the others

[wide kestrel]

So you only had the one gold double refine and not the non gold one as well?

[crude sandal]

yep

did you tier your vidar recently?

[nova sierra]

Only have the one as well. It says double after all, not triple 😉

[wide kestrel]

No have not tiered vdar been t7 forever...and double of 72 is not 158...so either do things correctly or just allow me to have what you had been letting me get since I got prime borg is all I am saying....this game is already not actually fair for all ....every officer pull, armada chest pull and any other that states chance under rewards ...gives others who recieve more reward for same cost as you...not at all fair..

[prisma helm]

This is how it should be. You had a bug in your favour giving you extra indie credits.

[wide kestrel]

Look at this max pull for discovery...not at all what you got was it? And only half of what i got time before always get speed ups along with it not 6 chest worth of stuff here

This is research I just did that deleted my second indi credit refine if i never would have done it i would still have it ...says bundles...not single so it indicates multiple bundles and as you can see there is now only one bundle

[crude sandal]

Ah, which is why you don't have a straight 2x

Just caused it to reset and update to what you should have had the whole time

[prisma helm]

You should always have only one option to buy. But you can buy it every day. Buying it multiple times = bundles.

There was a bug. You got two options to buy indie credits instead of one. You benefited from that bug. Now you have it the way everyone else does - the correct way

[wide kestrel]

Well 30% added on to 144 is not at all 158 ....they are not giving me correct amount should be 187

Here shows just adding it

[prisma helm]

If you think it's wrong then contact support in game.

You didn't add 30% though. That's the 3rd research. So it's been increased to 30% from the previous amount

Level 2 of that research, that you already had, gave you a 20% increase. Level 3 increased that to 30%. It's not an increase of 30% to what you were getting a day earlier.

[wide kestrel]

Ive been waiting since the 15th to get response on another issue about officer shards

[crude sandal]

You missed the bit where they didn't hear from you, so closed the ticket?

[crude sandal]

70ish + 30% + 70ish... come on, you know how these things work by now - everything is on base

[wide kestrel]

@crude sandal no if you see I sent all info and screenshots of issue and a person responded 3 days later with long explination for late response but to be patiant they will be contacting me soon then i get the if we have not heard from u ..do u still need assistance ? Message ...never got assistance still waiting on it being patient as asked🤣

72 is normal t7 indi refine doubled is 144 so add 30% thats 187 not 158

[crude sandal]

the 72 is doubled, but the research is added in the normal + (1 * bonus) method, to the original 72 I believe?

though I still get 165 there, so not sure where the other 7 have gone, potentially 72 is not the 'base' amount

[wide kestrel]

Scopely math...go figure🤣

[wide kestrel]

@prisma helm i see what you are saying but it does not say that anywhere in research...clearly states upgrades by level: 1 -5 each different amount up to 50%...so if it is only giving 10% added per level it should not state different per level it should say 10% improvement or bonus each level...not how it reads now

[dire coral]

All research and visual numbers are the same: they show the bonus for a certain lvl. In your picture lvl 4 has a 40% bonus. Everything else what you wrote is a misinterpretation on your part unfortunately.

[prisma helm]

It clearly shows the bonus at level 1 is 10%, at level 2 it's 20%, at level 3 it's 30%, etc...

[wide kestrel]

So lets say you are my employee you make $5000 a month and each month you stay working i improve your pay...your first month and get 20% bonus= $6000... 2nd month 30% bonus ...3rd month 40% ...how much did you get in your 3rd month?

[prisma helm]

I'm not playing this game. You misunderstood how the research worked. That's fine, it happens. Now you know. That's the end of it.

[wide kestrel]

What game? ...not playing a game ...please enlighten me to where your theory of how research is posted in game or on scopelys websight or discord so I can get the full understanding as you have got from somewhere...thank you@prisma helm

[prisma helm]

Again, I'm not going round in circles here. I've tried, I don't have time to keep going. Good luck 🖖

[wide kestrel]

Exactly you assumed you have the correct understanding based on?

No need to go round and round if you supply me the place where that knowledge is posted so I can be as intelligent as you are on subject@prisma helm

[prisma helm]

I told you I'm done. Good luck 👍

[wide kestrel]

Thank you for all your insight...you are entitled to your opinion ...but ...in future it would be much more helpful to just give me your source of game mechanics ...by saying " here is where you can read about it..." ..so people dont irritate you when they want to know facts not assumptions or hearsay

[crude sandal]

Simple maths... looking at the input, output and working out what happens in between?

Rather than assuming "This is how the number is applied"

While we're at it - Victor in your CS ticket asked for player ID, and you didn't...

[wide kestrel]

[crude sandal]

They're mind readers?

Recruit chest is that? not opening the right number of things? (is this really that important?)
And the research thing, it's all over STFC related discords that everything, research, bonuses, refits, apply to base numbers, which is why things like exocomps are so disappointing .

Meanwhile, people with stuck ships, locked out of accounts, etc...

TBF, that guy we went over his head and told his boss he was wasting their money and our time, and he bucked up sharpish afterwards 👀

But Scopely don't have that option

[wide kestrel]

Actually when you are not getting correct amounts stated that to me is a major problem game is not giving me something as simple as that...they short me 2 shards here and there always that adds up for real...I dont save up for officer auction events if ai got 6 chest worth i pull it then ..but not getting the amount I should be

[vale falcon]

Can we include 2* ship parts in the multiphasic for all levels, still useful for scrapping

[paper kindle]

Please. But otherwise farm lvl 17 separatists

[vale falcon]

Any particular lvl range / faction system you find good?

[dire coral]

Scopely does the following (and that is proven through so many people far more knowledgeable than me that you can assume that is correct): base * (1 + bonus).

And the number is the number per lvl. Lvl 4 means you insert 40% into the formula. You don’t put all the numbers of the lvls before that into the formula. If you don’t understand that basic mechanic you need to file a complaint for EVRYTHING in this game.

Too many armada events

[half ginkgo]

<@&509690795536941056> <@&509691205798592532> I am very very pleased with the events this arc. These events require effort to accomplish but they are obtainable. This is FAAAAAAAAR better than a simple auction. P2P players have an advantage over F2P / F2P adjacent. The methods employed thus far...... well I applaud the designers. If you are not those that need to hear this, I suspect you know how to get it in front of them. Please share. BTW, I am not a F2P player. I am somewhere between F2P Adjacent and P2P. Again, thank you Scopely!!! @civic slate @stable timber

[sage ravine]

Personally, I'm okay with the number of armada events. What I find awful is that the spawn rate for the rares and epics needed for this event is still not good enough. I understand needing to spend some directives and running armadas to complete the event. Spending hours scanning for 3-4 rares/epics is awful.

[inner zealot]

I'm not happy with the stonn armada event, scopely. You drained us of directives the first time. Now, I don't have enough to come close to finishing the current one.

And, the rare/epic cool down is still too long for these events.

[dire coral]

You got 2100 rare directives in the beginning. Stonn event needs (ops 35) 4 rares set. Leaves me with 2 spare. So which ops are you that you needed 10 rare armadas set to win the first event?

[muted swift]

I agree with this. This is the first time I've acquired 2 epic officers in one arc without buying any packs to directly compete

[sullen matrix]

Was definetly not happy about the Worf Power Leaderboard, it was god awful since i had to compete with OPS 35 and 36 as an OPS 34, which means i get 2m per Defense Platform while they get double. If i would have known i would have never competed but i noticed to late. Could have my Ent on the next tier if i didnt.

The rest is pretty good

Btw, now that they have 1-10 of 10 ingame, while 4/10 is Stonn and 3/10 is TPring, what happens to Barot, will he be 11 of 10? 😅

[spark finch]

Since Two of Ten is so hard to come by, maybe they will kill him off and we will get a 2b of 10.

[gusty yoke]

@wide kestrel you are doing the math wrong. Have to know what the base is first. The base independent credits for a Vidar at T7 is 60 credits. With the Borg Prime it is doubled to 120 credits. Add your Assimilated Credit Yield research of 20% gain and equals 144 credits. When you increased your research to 30% gain from 120 credits and you get 156 credits. Have to understand the game dynamics before you complain about something. @crude sandal

[faint snow]

0 of 10 for Barot is still an option

[lucid zodiac]

Or maybe some other designation? They could also increase the number to 11, maybe even increase it to 12 & add Mäkinen as 12of12 (for some Iso mining Borg goodness)?

[stuck delta]

Yeah its a pain, swarmadas also count but not really viable until ops 39 as the FrankieA sucks until that extra tier

[gaunt hazel]

Does Feedback in here get picked up or discussed with anyone that can make a difference?

For Away Missions, was this not sold to us as a way to use officers that are sitting about doing nothing? But what is happening is the same officers are still siting around doing nothing and I am still having to battle with the normal officers I need for my ships having to be on both.... Can the Missions not be tailored for the type of officers?? So a Common Away Mission will give you the max when using Common officers, this way I can easily rotate round what officers are needed for those rare/epic missions?

[stuck delta]

Hmm I am managing ok with my officers, Carol and Charvanek have a use now. I even put Stonn on a mission as I have 4-of-10 now for mining duties

[swift steppe]

Is it going to be one of those eternal mysteries why some people got special gift chests yesterday and some didn't?

[prisma helm]

No. Anyone who did the ticket event with the parsteel reward got a gift chest. The rewards in the ticket event was wrong so the gift made up the difference to what it should have been.

[last jacinth]

Y'all need to give us more methods for acquiring independent credits. 55 per Data conversion and 66 per borg probe conversion is not good enough, when Otto requires 4400 to promote. It shouldn't take 2 months to acquire the credits to promote a green officer. And that doesn't even take into account the question of why borg officers are requiring independent credits. Borg officers already require active nano probes to promote. Independent credits should not factor into their progression, PERIOD!

[sage ravine]

At ops 33, it's awful. Ideally I'd be looking at hitting 35's with some help from some bigger team mates, or hit 29's or 32's. The problem is that so many others are searching for armadas at this level on my server that it literally takes hours to find one. Even if you sit and watch for one to pop up in a specific system, it's a coin-flip as to whether you get it before someone else does, as so many people are looking.....

I knew the event was coming, so I called one just seconds after the event started. It took a lot of time and a bit of luck, but I managed to call 2 more last night, and finished it up by participating in more armadas that others called. A full day later, and many members in my alliance are still intensely hunting them.....

This is a game. It shouldn't be so much work for an event like this in my opinion.

[gusty yoke]

Every game that involves multiplayers is always gonna have those who play more to accomplish more in game without cashing their entire way through. But if folks don’t want, or can’t, put in the time to take advantage of the opportunity’s given in a game then they can’t complain cause others have the time or able too. If life is too hectic or busy and you are not having fun working at the game or events. Than don’t do them. But do not complain cause others are accomplishing the same things you aren’t able to do. It’s amazing how so many people complained about the mat’s needed for an event that many folks had saved up and then messed up their chance to complete the Stonn event when they split the option for half the points on Ultra recruits the second go around. Which in turn messed it up for others who plan or could accomplish said event as was. Then people cried about that cause they did not have them cause they use theirs all the time. I agree the amounts could have been bit high for some. But if everyone didn’t burn mats, or other items, and saved them to use in events than you all would have way less to complain about and get more goodies from the game. Patience and planning is key in any game. If you cannot do those than cash may be your only option to succeed if you really desire to have more in a game and can’t plan ahead or learn how things work.

[swift steppe]

As far as I'm concerned this deal with it becoming necessary to save up everything indefinitely takes away from the game, I means instead of enjoying making steady progression on my own I'm supposed to set around however long until someone else decides to run the right event , don't like it a bit!!

[waxen urchin]

Here's my issue, when a support ticket is submitted, don't brush it off and pull a half-assed attempt at placating the player. Like they did me over the first heart of stonn. They shorted me 3 points in the dominating doomsday event and didn't add it in to the overall completion of the event, and then failed to account for it in the support ticket and said that I was s.o.l. and closed the ticket immediately. Before I was able to point out that they missed it. I didn't participate in one of the supporting events, and only got 1 point in another event due to my own choices(not complaining about that part), but to still ignore 1 supporting event in its entirety that I worked hard on to finish the overall event just shows a sign of gross incompetence and/or gross negligence.

[gusty yoke]

Did you have screenshots of the completed events and the missing points from each days totals. I know it’s easy to figure out what you should have after completing the event each time. Only asking cause pictures are worth a thousand words when it comes to scopely. But sounds like you missed one of the first parts 1 of 4 single day events worth 3 points each. But if you had a picture of your events and points not adding up each time you seen the error on your day of and days after it occurred, then should have taken it serious.

[rich iris]

What a rip off 4/10 event

[waxen urchin]

I didn't get all the screenshots since the last day of the event it wouldn't show all of the events when I noticed the issue. Support didn't acknowledge that the dominating doomsday event in my ticket from the first stonn event. They did list the 1 that I didn't complete and the 1 that had a partial completion. But not even the remote mention of all the totals that included the dominating doomsday.

[gusty yoke]

If you were looking at the points totals by the listed events than there was more than 100 points total. What they did was list all the events that would utilizing during the two parts and there award totals. Each part had a 56 pts and 32 pts two days event sets, second part having the 56 split into two 28 events. Each time the heart of Stonn events major event totals equaled 88 of the 100 pts. Next each event ran for 4 days. Each one of those days had had a 3 pts event that ran, equaling 12 points total. 88 and 12 equal 100. If you missed or failed to complete any of these events final tiers you would come up short on points. Since they listed each separate event they would choose to utilize over the 8 total days of the events and their available point rewards, to some it will appear they have extra chances at points if they didn’t complete events. If you missed or did not complete any event during the 4 day parts you will not get 100 points and finish it out. Sounded to me like this was what you were thinking as well.

[waxen urchin]

That is not what I was thinking either. If you were to complete each event as described, regardless of the length of time for each event, you would in fact have earned a total of 106 points. As it is plainly listed in the main heart of stonn part 1. With the fact that I did not participate in 1 3 point event, and a partial completing of another 3 point event (which awarded me 1 point even according to support), then how could I have ended the event with 98 points? I will attach the screenshot from scopely where they did not even tally in the dominating doomsday event in their math.

So in turn, according to your logic of how the points were calculated, if the one event that I missed in it's entirety on the first day that was worth 3 points, how could I have ended with 98 points in total?

[gusty yoke]

That’s all wrong. Exactly what I was saying. First time around. Was 32 + 3 + 3 + 56 + 3 + 3 = 100. No@missed events. Second time around was 28 + 28 + 3 + 3 + 32 + 3 + 3 = 100. They listed the events and and point worth for each event, not the total events they would run. Where on any day of the event did you see two 3 point events run? You didn’t pay attention. They listed each type of event they would run during the 8 days on the event each time. Not the total events they would run. So if you failed to complete an entire event then you missed out on a few points. Or if you skipped one cause you thought there would be more. Then you failed to complete the event all together. There were no events during the phases that that allowed a total of 106. Only 100 points total. Should they not have listed all of them together to confuse some folks...maybe. They could have had a separate proper list each time. But they got lazy in programming and made you think there were more. So by taking time off from completing task you missed out.

Days and times for events. The points you would receive for each event and the total points for entire event. Half that and got 100 points perfect for each set of 4 day events.

[waxen urchin]

According to Jax (the support person from scopely) that tallied up my points in the support ticket, if you look closely, you'll see there is no mention of the dominating doomsday event which was worth 3 points. I see your logic, but that still does not explain having 98 out of 100 points possible when the main event was rewarding points based on the completion of supporting events. Just look at the first screen shot of the support ticket and explain to me how not listing the dominating doomsday event or adding in the points from that event even makes sense based on your understanding. Because the reality of it is, I received 1 point for partial completion of the mining mastery event, and 0 points of the 3 possible for the infestation event, when according to Jax, mining mastery was worth 3 and infestation was worth 3. Yet missing 8 points to be calculated equals 2.
Just look at how they add them up in that first screen shot and count the number of events listed, then compare the number of events listed in the screenshot of the part 1 event. It's really that simple. According to them, the dominating doomsday event was not even calculated in the final tally.

[gusty yoke]

Don’t read the screenshot as literal. They pulled some data from their logs and it included an event that did not happen. All events were SMS events. Look at only those. Now the way they did the points for events was to give some points for the different tiers other just the total at the end of completing. So partially completing an event still gives you some points. As I explained there were two large 2 day events. The 32 and 56 point events. Those account over the 4 days. Now each of those days had one single SMS event that ran also. Totally 4 events for 3 points each. 12 total points for all them completed. Add up all events and that is 6 active SMS events. For total of 100 points. Count the SMS events listed that counted for points in your screenshot and you have 6 SMS events total. That one with no SMS from their logs is an event that was not included in this event for calculations. Think of it as an extra line of garbage code. Basically take it out completely and you have what they concluded at the bottom. You event points are exactly as they should have been.

@waxen urchin

[rich iris]

What a rip off!

[visual oar]

Way too much quantity and not enough quality. You keep hammering us with new stuff and new officers that will mostly be useless because we can’t level them up.

[timid ivy]

The points on the event doesnt score right. I was given 16 points for armada assault. Not 32. I messaged support and they said its working correct and listed the points i got. 16 for armada assault. Event screenshot clearley says 32 points

[hollow pike]

Screenshot is showing the total points from the 2 runs of Armada Assault I think

[hollow pike]

Yeah, that’s gonna get deleted ☝️

[elfin plume]

They want feedback, that is mine. I am flabberghasted, how these ships are still what they are.

[leaden lintel]

I have received a couple direct messages in discord offering discounts on STFC purchases. This feels wrong. Does anyone want the info I received so they can look into stopping it?

[livid vapor]

Because all points weren’t only on finishing, but you got points on certain milestones.

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/651447321606750210/896922019189375006/unknown.png

Hence why you could get 1 point from the meta event, if you only got to MS3 and not the finished the final milestone

[half ginkgo]

Seize the Moment SMS for 10.21.21 -10.23.21: This is a great event. Not an easy completion, no, but very nice rewards. The players are rewarded for effort. Thank you Scopely. Nice event. Bring it back in future ARCs or as an in between event.

[paper kindle]

I guess it all depends on ship vs ops. Easy as heck here as a 35 who can smack 41s in ursva around. 9m needed each 41 is 2.1 mil

[graceful plume]

or you can stand near respawn point in any 39sh system and farm coming 40sh 🙂

[red stone]

D3/Legionary cloaking needs to apply to the Hijacked versions too guys… c’mon.

[sage ravine]

I've been playing this way since I started. I actually enjoy that this game takes some thought and preparation to get the most out of it. I don't want them to remove thoughtful decision making from the game.....

[jolly dagger]

Maybe it is just me but too much Territory defense / capture during the workday. I would suggest moving the lvl 1 territory captures to every 2 weeks as opposed to every week. Just a thought. Could also move all which would be better.

[sage ravine]

Different players/alliances will have preferred times. My alliance tried taking territory at one point where we had a difficult time gathering members because of the time and our personal schedules, whereas our opponent, while losing to us initially, was able to rally and take it back. We changed our mindset about territory, and now have territory which has defense/capture times that benefits more of our members now, so it has been significantly easier to hold it. I think it's a good thing that territories have varying times, as everyone has different schedules.

[paper kindle]

Even being part of an alliance that has been in terrority since the start i say that scopely should just wipe terrorities every so often.

[gloomy silo]

Too much laggg..

Amd i cant even log in atm with full bars

[jolly dagger]

And just to be clear the times can be ok, since it probably works for most. But every week is the hassle, keep the times or whatever just change the schedule to every other week.

[jolly dagger]

That is an interesting idea. Would certainly change things up.

[gloomy silo]

Work on the lagg first🤣

So tc is actually defendable wothout having to watch an actual battle freez up like dial up days

Ideas and suggestions are 1 tab up tho lol

[paper kindle]

We have one alliance that has held thier territory since week 1. They would probaly getbit back but a reset might breathe some life into it again.

[hazy temple]

There's some sort of territory update coming this arc btw

[covert kite]

@grizzled tartan @fringe tiger y'all have a spammer here named @nova sierra

[old panther]

thank you for adding Georgiou to the transporter!!

[opaque raft]

Scopely again has shown to deliberatly offend lower lvl players by introducing a new shard thing for lvl30+ only.
Apparently they don’t give a 💩 about lower lvl players.

[random crane]

Ultra recruit chest should just be all EPICS and Officer XP and the Premium recruit chest should all be all RARES and Officer XP. Uncommon, Common, Officer XP and chance of Premium and Ultra tokens should be in the Basic recruit chest.

[dense monolith]

Yeah that "new" shard is bunk. Adding in basically 26 new officers to have to pull from but only giving 2 more shards per draw means it'll cost thousands of dollars or add years onto waiting to get a single officer maxxed to get transport shards

At this point I really have to ask. Scopely do you even math?

[charred ravine]

How about removing the NEW this from discovery tokens? 😂

[dense monolith]

Or get rid of that mechanism entirely

I love the add thanks but you should re-arrange ultra and premium now like someone said above - this drops down to nearly 15% to get a single shard of the officer you want/need which means maxing a rare or epic to get transporter sheets exponentially increases to a nearly impossible amount for users that don't already have one maxxed

Maybe pull out the augment faction and allow them to be solely sourced from faction again

[mossy silo]

*Sarcasm... So glad to see players level 30+ will see a bigger officer pool for Ultra chests, because we all know players level 29 and below don't use officers!? WTF?

[raven stag]

OMG 30+ get more opportunities to drain lower players. thes Recruit chests shouldn't locked behind a levelwall (like as paywall)

shame on you scopely

[floral echo]

Officers Sourcing Phase 1 - Discrimination of lower OPS…then you should change SLB range too. Why do lvl 27 compete with OPS >30 in some arcs?

[dense monolith]

Wow so basically $8000 to start to max any officers up from $3000. 80 packs give 15 chests per pack if bought on PC so that is 1200 packs - F2P can get 5 packs a week roughly so it will now take 240 weeks for a FTP to have a chance, and ONLY a chance to max out 1 officer to get transporter patterns

[sage ravine]

I think this level locking is a good idea. There are some really crucial officers that you need to unlock sooner, and with a smaller pool early on, it makes it more likely to unlock those officers sooner. A bigger pool will also slow down access to transporter patterns at a point in the game where your access is really minimal.....

[mossy silo]

Dateline STFC, Stardate 75246.9 - Scopely sends minimally cloaked message to all Players level 29 and below, "We don't want you playing anymore, move along"

[true zealot]

Or lvl up faster....

[dense monolith]

Yeah the message is level up chump

[raven stag]

no spend you whole money to scopely

[dense monolith]

By almost doubling the pool and giving only a 20% increase in shards that math I have up above may be off by even more

[sage ravine]

yea, exactly. it's going to make it harder to grind the officers that were in the old pack. Officers like kirk, spock, bones, nero, gorkon, kerla, pike, moreau, etc. So many useful officers are in that old pack. Yea, there are useful ones in the new one, but if you only had access to the new one, it would take longer to unlock and level up the officers in the older pack.....

[raven stag]

@dense monolith but this players have the chance to get a full pull of e.g. TOS Kirk. Lower players haven'T got this chance

[sage ravine]

at ops 33 I'm glad I can now source these other officers somehow, as I already have what I need of the older ones, but it took a long time to get all those older ones to the point they are at. I wouldn't want it to take longer.....

[dense monolith]

It's a statistical anomaly I have yet to see someone pull 100% shards on epics - sure it can happen but do you play the lotto? Yeah it's less odds than that.

In fact does scopley actually publish their odds?

[sage ravine]

so far I got a full pull of Pike, Kang, and Marcus. It does happen. And they do publish the odds. There is a 5% chance of a full pull, and a 20% chance of that full pull being an epic. So approximately a 1% chance.....

[raven stag]

better than lotto

[hollow pike]

Considering the number of players on here recently mentioning how difficult it is to max a must-have officer like Chen, this change makes sense.

[dense monolith]

no the odds are 0.1% not 5%

[sage ravine]

it's right in the drop rates information box right in the ultra recruit chest.....

[dense monolith]

odds aren't chance

[floral echo]

They could also change the pool for this recruitments…but maybe in Phase 2

[dense monolith]

If a player owns 1 of 4 tickets, his/her probability is 1 in 4 but his/her odds are 3 to 1. That means that there are 3 chances of losing and only 1 chance of winning. ... The true odds are the actual chances of winning, whereas the payout odds are the ratio of payout for each unit bet.

[sage ravine]

it's right there.....

[dense monolith]

Yes for 1 shard lol

not a full pull

[sage ravine]

"5% chance to receive enough shards to unlock a random Rare (80%) or Epic (20%) officer".....

[dense monolith]

That 5% chance to receive enough for an unlock doesn't mean you have 5% chance at 110 shards, it means that that officer you have already at say 108 could unlock

[sage ravine]

I've got 3 full epic pulls, and I'm not sure how many rare pulls. If the officer needed 110, and I had several shards, I still got 110 in that lucky pull.....

[dense monolith]

You are either a statistical anomaly or you have spent over $5000 usd to get that

[sage ravine]

never bought more than a battlepass in a month.....

[dense monolith]

Using an odds and probability calculator with those numbers above its a 1/10% chance per 1 chest pull to do what you did - sure sure sure right....

5 chest pull gives you a 1/5% chance to do it

sorry not chance but probability

[sage ravine]

what are you smoking?

if I pull an epic chest, I get 12 shards (used to be 10)

plus a 5% chance of a random lucky pull for an entire officer worth of shards

that's how it reads out to me, and that's how it seems to work in game

so if I pull 100 epic chests, I should realistically get 1200 shards (used to be 1000), plus my expected result of the lucky pulls should be 4 rare lucky pulls and 1 epic lucky pull

now, I'm not entirely sure how many chests I've opened, but it's definitely a couple hundred of them. I don't recall all of my rare pulls, but I know I received 3 epic ones, which is in line with the expected results based on what scopely has stated.....

[dense monolith]

I get that you don't comprehend english read above what was stated - chance is literally not probability or true odds

and again its not a 5% chance for a full pull its a 5% chance to "unlock an officer" that can be anything from 1 shard to 280+ shards

[sage ravine]

https://tenor.com/view/facepalm-gif-10188678

[sage ravine]

I really hope they make some kind of change to the premium and standard packs too tbh. But if they're going to make it more difficult to max chen, I hope they do it in a few months. I still need another 50 shards lmao.

[dense monolith]

yeah that could cost you about 250k Lat right now so may want to hurry

[plush bay]

Good add on officers. Long time coming! But why not Georgou? She is actually important to ship operations

[prisma helm]

If you get a lucky pull you get the total number of shards that the officer needs to get from zero shards to unlocked. For example if an officer needs 38 shards to unlock, and you have 20, the lucky pull for that officer will be 38 shards.

It will always be the amount to go from zero shards to T1 unlock

[dense monolith]

Right that is what I said

It's a 5% chance for an unlock of any officer that doesn't mean its going to be a full pull

But I was talking about probability and odds

not chance

Chance makes people think there is a much higher hope of winning

[stable timber]

Georgiou was added to Transporter Patterns

[prisma helm]

That 5% chance, as I understand it, is for a "Lucky pull". That will always be the exact amount needed to get that officer from zero to T1

[dense monolith]

yes it's not really a 5% chance though is it, the payout is much lower than 5%
