unreal steppe
but ive always only got on for dailies and nothing more since armadas they arent worth it and now with g4
i actually think omega madas will be a thing
lethal edge
Shh language @pliant blaze
unreal steppe
and by the looks of things it will be 99.99 for 1 omega armada
with how much epics cost
pliant blaze
Don’t even get me started on armadas. I’ll get muted.
unreal steppe
ill try not too lol
lethal edge
😂
pliant blaze
It’s not the armadas themselves it’s the ppl in my alliance. I’m a commodore and dealing with my alliance is well...challenging.
unreal steppe
yeah i know the feel
greedy people are for rares and epics
It just seems like they are trying to make everything so costly that even whales will give up
signal matrix
@lethal edge - Scopely needs to understand that as faction reps locked people treated this as part of the game (which it clearly was) and built strategy and spent real money maxing multiple reps. Surely a way to preserve the integrity of the game and a level playing field for all is to have a soft lock or floor at 10M - what you do after that is new content so everybody is clear on how it works so treat that however you want no locks etc. You cannot just remove something people have spent real $$$ doing with no way of knowing it would be removed from them.
unreal steppe
so they can claim game isnt "making enough revenue" to continue and shut it down next year
pliant blaze
It needs to lock, I spent 4 months and around 300 Million Tri and a lot of dilly. Not to mention my time on it. They’re needs to be a soft lock.

My idea is. Put the faction locked in amounts back. Like before the update. Furtermore add more locked in amounts along the way. Changing the parameters of the game is not working for me.
mossy sundial
Do the commendation ranks in the faction store do anything other than waste money? From reading the tooltip "This token is a testimony of your relationship with a faction" one could infer they would lock in your faction rep at each level...right now it seems like you just waste tokens and get a garbage quest reward per level.

Suggestion - have dilith gen crank out more dilith. At lvl 38 I am pushing 4K+ for a full gen run. With only 4, that’s 16k - won’t even cover the repair of my intrepid. It would be nice for it to push out more and to have a higher limit as this is a life blood for ships and later modules and research
old kindle
Suggestions- We have a Ferengi ship, can we get a Ferengi crew? More characters would be nice. We need Chekhov for one and we need a second mining crew, specially when most of the game consists of mining resources.
Also, have a crew slot on base to improve area of the base. Guns, shields, gens, etc
languid sand
Good idea ....would add more flavor to the game ....I like the idea of having a Station defense crew
pliant blaze
How about fixing the rep any word there yet?
signal matrix
@languid sand try the Auxiliary Controls crew - they provide a lot of station defense. Do you mean separate crews for the station from those on ships?
lyric plover
@pliant blaze it's fixed, people are mad they can't do 3 factions without a extremely tough grind, which, if they paid attention, they'd have known this was coming, i knew something like this would happen, since June
Everything has a cost
pliant blaze
Tough grind it will take years to accomplish one rep. Lvl 40 traders baseline I would have to grind for a little more the 3 years to max?
Yes I did the math
lyric plover
It was planned for this content to last us over a year
Don't forget dailies, daily events, missions, and the ability to kill higher levels
pliant blaze
Your still talking YEARS.
lyric plover
Rep amounts given out will get higher as you climb the latter
pliant blaze
For one.
lyric plover
Yeah, again, if you read the announcements, it was designed to last us another year, if it was easy, then lots of people would quit, because those 4* ships would be coming out quickly
I've already got enough problems being one shot by a intrepid, don't need a kelvin doing it, but even easier
signal matrix
@lyric plover the point is you cannot change game content that people have invested in and will loose the vast majority of that invested benefit. That simply is wrong and not necessary. Leaving in a soft floor at 10M and expanding faction rep are NOT mutually exclusive.
lyric plover
It's not changed, faction rep still locks
signal matrix
@lyric plover - don’t be pedantic - it’s is not the same and you know it
pliant blaze
G4 ships aren’t possible for anyone besides a Uber whale to get.
lyric plover
It's always been pay to get new content, most of this was to satisfy the top spenders, but there was some stuff for lower levels as well, I'm enjoying it
Welcome to the grind, all this game is, is an invest ment of time, or $$$
pliant blaze
Don’t say they are bc they’re aren’t this platform isn’t sustainable.
lyric plover
Though it'll be very rude if they sell packs just for faction rep
Yeah, business model for scopely is to make as much $$$ as companies like ea and Activision, i don't like it, so i choose not to spend
They did make that galaxy research that makes rep gaining faster, tbh i never saw a purpose for it until yesterday
pliant blaze
The amount of time it will take for one rep to lock Is more then the life on this game at this point. I spend some honestly but G4 is whatever to me I’ll maybe get there but rep is a huge point of contention. Please just make sure they know that. @lyric plover I’m not certain it even works I did the research and I saw no improvement.
lyric plover
I don't mind 1bil,however I do think they should add a way to Gain more rep, like how the augment store is
I have yet to do the research, but ill do it and get back to you @pliant blaze
pliant blaze
Thank you.
It would be nice if the transports would go back down to 6.5 mil around Kronos, Romulas and Sol.
I could at least kill those for rep again. 12.96k per kill would make a huge difference.
lyric plover
If you want to see if it works, this is what I'd get if I killed a level 35 trader
If the rep research works, it should be different for you
lyric plover
Hmm, if you killed it would you get the same amount of rep?
Sometimes it gets applied after you kill it
lyric plover
Like the pure Tritanium research
lyric plover
You have any klingon devotion research?
pliant blaze
lyric plover
Hang in, I'll do the math
pliant blaze
It won’t work for that though? Bc I’ll be using an enterprise
lyric plover
If you kill a level 35 red trader, you should get 609 rep, unless im missing some other research
Oh 🙈
lyric plover
If you kill a 35 trader, then fed devotion should take away a extra 261.12 research
Oh, so you're gaining rep, k
That's more than 360 rep gained
541 to 962
pliant blaze
421
lyric plover
So it's passive, gets applied after the battle
pliant blaze
This is the way...to do it. Well then looks like everyone has to invest in devotion
lyric plover
Yeah, they made the rep useful, but looks like you'll have to invest all the way
pliant blaze
Give me a couple weeks or so to fully test and lvl and I will get back to you.
lyric plover
👍
pliant blaze
I have a feeling it will still take along time. But it might be possible.
lyric plover
Yeah, lots of klingon killing to increase feds quickly
pliant blaze
I’m triple faction right now would love it if there was soft locks
I have factions ships from all 3
lyric plover
So, it looks like you might need to go solo faction to max one out, doing 1 at a time
pliant blaze
Actually got most of them from doing faction rep
So I might be able to math a lot of this down.
lyric plover
Lol, just remember, all research is applied separately, which should be changed for the rep research, it'll make gaining rep a bit easier
pliant blaze
I need those hostels around the capital planets back I could do it then easy lol
lyric plover
Lol, i have yet to get to sol, Kronos, or romulus
I'm a few days away though, I'll probably get there by Christmas
Saladin is going to t3
molten nebula
Game needs a mission codex. Currently searching for the mission dark space would be nice to know if I’m wasting my time or if I missed a low level mission someplace that leads up to dark space
worldly nova
We can mine.... it's just that our server was stagnated for a long time.
(Also on 11)
Our growth was suppressed comparative to other servers of our age.
pliant blaze
We did @worldly nova for 2 months I felt like I was the only one growing.
worldly nova
I spend so much time here.... but my situation is unique, sort of.
nocturne lantern
@lethal edge @worldly nova why not suggest for those that had all three maxed. Pick one to continue as a main and at the old max or soft max it stops at neutral with the other 2 factions? Just a thought.
worldly nova
Hssm was our first to max all 3, I believe.
And has coached others, very helpfully, on how to do so.
pliant blaze
Second rexmode was first.
pliant blaze
Rex, Don and I were the only ones to max all three.
Me and Rex will figure out a new way to do it.
worldly nova
Rex is always down for a challenge.
pliant blaze
Me and him always enjoy figuring out stuff like that. We have fun.
nocturne lantern
It could stop the stop rep there
Sorry, ik a couple of my servers people got banned last night.
worldly nova
I used to learn a lot from Rex. He's good people.
nocturne lantern
I'm out again
worldly nova
TY! 🙂
pliant blaze
Like Pike and Moreau are needed for rep gain. Pike is prob the most important crew member you could have right now.
pliant blaze
I’ve almost got him to lvl 15. The second transporter patterns came out I invested into him.

because they don't open the black market with the ferengy faction. swap bps, g2, g3, parts, etc, etc?
plain torrent
Please dear god give us the option to turn off Armada notifications
tall sedge
@plain torrent I wonder if I should figure out how to create an android app that filters notifications. Armadas get the no notification filter bucket. generators complete get a tiny quiet ding. attacks that actually propogate to the phone as notifications get a blast of airgun followed by red alert until you silence it. 😉
trained fighters/etc get some simple sound .. only base attacks get the full royal red carpet treatment
plain torrent
Well, there's an area in the setting menu for notifications, so it could already be a planned feature (to endable/disable different "event" notifications), but dear god, it needs to be implemented sooner rather than later.
tall sedge
lets hope <@&509691205798592532> are listening and spoon feeding the devs good stuff about this conversation so that it may at least make the surveys of what priority things should be fixed in .. and of course the whole community will be responding with that being #1 😉
worldly nova
Are we on notifications still?
plain torrent
Yes @_@
worldly nova
Yeah, that is often a hot topic the mod team brings up.
tall sedge
@worldly nova I just woke to the latest comment, sorry to add more fuel to an already well stoked fire
worldly nova
Nah, it's all good.
It's been hectic so I appreciate knowing when there are good ideas floating around.
tall sedge
though I wonder, has anyone written an app on ios and/or android that captures notifications and lets people determine which notifications from a given app get what attention (visually, vibrationally, audially) ?
plain torrent
It may be a small thing, but it'll make a huge amount of people happy if it gets implemented.
hallow field
I have different sounds or announcements for different apps and in star trek under notifications different star trek sounds for different notifications it would be helpful having a separate notification for attacks and Armada's

#📺-streams-and-videos cool video by @cinder walrus Go Watch and Support. Bring Back Respected Faction Lock!!!
visual ledge
Alliance Star Systems: claim a system for your alliance, with alliance only resources. System has 2-3 stations (like armadas). Each station is some % of the alliance's total power. To claim a system, an alliance must destroy these bases every week or so. To capture a system, a rival alliance must destroy their stations.
While under control, that alliance's survey ships are indestructible when attacked.
eager wraith
@austere sand lock the rep in again at 10.000.500 points! The new system is just crazy and not feasible! Can’t the system lock in at certain points? It would be much easier! A lot of people just quit because of that and the number is counting!
ember narwhal
i would like to assign officers to a ship and not a dock. just makes more sense no military in the world or galaxy does it the way its done here. also being able to give my duplicate ships an id marker be it a number or a letter. when buying chest (recruits etc..) a slide so i can pick the number of chest i want instead of having preset amounts. all of these things would make life easier and more fun
pliant blaze
I could never be a MOD I have no filter.
old plume
heres a suggestion...that we be able to frikn warp with miner on node!
zealous pagoda
Reinstate the faction locks. You could even have it so that low level locks at 10,000,500 and a high level lock at 1,000,000,500.
With the low level lock you don't get Trained Fighters attacking you, but you still get War Coalition, War Army, etc. on you. When you get the high level lock then you get no faction fighters on you.
smoky marsh
Well, i think a faction game should make it virtual impossible to have more then one
signal matrix
@smoky marsh that’s a great view to have but not the game mechanics that Scopely themselves employed.
exotic cove
No more pay to win would be a nice addition. Here's a bunch of new ships......but you have to be lvl 40+ to get them.
smoky marsh
Stop spending 4 months ago, best decision ever
It comes slow , but with a fun and active alliance that doesn’t matter
inner walrus
When will you consider to give admirals tools to deal with their members !!!
WE, admirals, got no tools to monitor activities.
And in private messages sections, why deleting old discussions !! WE need it to deal with people !!!
Do the dev's play the game ?? Doubt !!
stable scaffold
Make it so that an alliance tag cannot be used by another alliance we have a crew on server 30 that likes using other crew tags instead of their own
lunar pebble
Any discussion of having locks put in place at various faction reputation levels?
coral quest
Would be nice if the PvP levels were not so wide ranging. I mean, a level 21 player with a strongest ship powered at 70K doesn’t stand a chance against a level 27 player with a strongest ship powered at 350K. It’s not a fair fight.
Oh, and you shouldn’t lose shields when PvP unless you’re attacking a base. And maybe make it so you can’t attack a ship on a mining node unless that ship is OPL or the node is zeroed out.
stiff pagoda
Not really a idea for the game, more an idea for the PR/Comms and particularly management. It’s obvious to everyone that the games in a bit of a state. Part of the issue is the lack of communication, both on here and in the game. There seems to be a complete lack of basic customer service skills and you’re taking us for granted. Show some humility, acknowledge the issues, tell us what’s being done about it and when and be generous in making recompense. And some basic development advice, fix the old problems before releasing new content.
wide marsh
Bring back the faction rep lock at 10 million as it was. Let everyone choose and grind from there.
green gorge
Agreed. Lock rep in at 10 million. Not cool to take something away that we spent a lot of time working on. Should lock in again at some point as well. Every 10 million for example
unreal steppe
problem with that is implementing new hijacked ships
because you can only get hijacked ships with negative rep
if they even care about those anymore
hybrid lark
@austere sand Would love to see a increase warp speed button at the expense of your shields to 5%. Your shields must be at full to use and drop to 5% after using warp speed increase. This last for one warp and no shield recharge until out of warp. Your shields will have a slower recharge as penalty. Once fully charged the penalty is over and button is usable again in the next warp. Gives the feel of power allocation during warp.
You could have research to increase speed and lower effects of the penalty.
Also would add another dynamic to pvp.
Chance for smaller ships to kill those bigger ships.
solid shard
What I would like to see is if in a alliance alliance members be able to trade for items among each other “example if I have bp for envoys and want to trade or give to another alliance member
hybrid lark
@solid shard I think it would give the bigger alliances a huge advantage as they would be putting members in bigger and better ships because of higher members farming bp’s and creating a big unbalance. IMO
I wonder if these ideas are actually read and put in the hands of those that can decide if it’s something they would want to put in the game? Would be great to see more feedback in this channel.
safe forge
@FozzotI was wondering the same thing.
low holly
@hybrid lark So members shouldn't be able to get BPs for ships they can't make then?
hybrid lark
@low holly More like limiting the rate of BP transfers like being able to transfer one per every 7th day loyalty package.
That way a member turning 40 wouldn’t have multiple members trading them enough BP’s to instantly make that ship.
low holly
So it would be useless.
hybrid lark
That transfer rate may still be to high with a 70+ member alliance focusing on one player to transfer to.
low holly
1 BP every 7 days, when ships require many many more than that...
The players receiving them would still have to build them, and get the resources to do so.
hybrid lark
That could be as high as 70 bp’s to one player in a week.
low holly
And they're still limited by shipyard level.
You're not going to get lv 20s building The Enterprise.
hybrid lark
Having the resources ready to build the ship would be easy to do if it was pre meditated.
Correct but having a D3 one day after turning 26 for instance and so on.
low holly
So you speed everyone up by a bit. How would that unbalance anything?
low holly
That would just be another benefit to being in a good alliance.
Why is it bad to make people want to band together with those that will help them progress faster?
hybrid lark
Just saying the transfer rate would need to be controlled to where it’s more of a help them a gimme.
Or a limit of 2 bp’s per ship type to that player.
low holly
From the whole alliance?
hybrid lark
So I could give every member 2 bp’s for the D3 and 2 bp’s for the bortus and other members also being able to give 2.
Just a way of slowing it down so the huge alliances are not instantly shipping a member as they turn levels.
low holly
If everyone is able to instantly ship, why is it bad?
Oh, hang on...
Alliances aren't limited in size, at all?
And can't check.
hybrid lark
Not very fair for a person that is on every day playing 5 hours in a 30 man alliance having to grind there ship when a person playing once every 4 days for a hour that day having a ship that the other person has worked hard for. Just seems unbalanced.
low holly
Unfair is the word you're looking for.
And it's not like it was completely free. Others in the alliance still had to grind out the BP pieces. The grinding was just spread out.
But yes, since alliances do indeed seem to be only limited by how much their members contribute resources, some sort of limit does seem prudent.
hybrid lark
The alliance I’m in has 72 players and almost all very active I could quickly see this being the case. Players having ships instantly ready for them when turning levels. The resources needed would already be calculated and on discord so the player would know what resources to save and could even have alternate ships using different resources so it could easily be done.
I myself stopped leveling just to build up my ship power before getting dailies higher then I could handle. Swarm are still a struggle for me with every 2 levels. My level is at 28 but will be stopping at 29 to again raise ship power before moving on.
My last big leveling pause was at 27. I have seen many people keep grinding up there level to find out they couldn’t do any of the daily’s they currently have. It’s way past there ship power. Or officer levels.
@low holly LOL as of right now if you want to instantly have a ship when u turn a new level you must send SCOPLY $200. Umm don’t see that changing. If it takes money from the game it isn’t going to happen.
low holly
There's that too.
hybrid lark
I would love seeing the warp speed idea I proposed added into the game. Everyone I have told about it loves the idea as well as adding many research components to the game for it. It may even make the Armada pvp more challenging and fun. If that ever happens. You would be much more of a target coming out of warp in a ship with 5% shields and SLOW shield recharge. Also gives the underdog a chance to take out a bigger ship in a fight.
vocal sandal
@low holly @hybrid lark but if you have 72 members, and each will need to send 71 BPs (1 to each other member), wouldn't they be better off buying the 71BPs and using them? 😂
low holly
I believe the assumption is that some of the players already have the ship that is attempting to be built, thus they can get BPs for it much easier.
vocal sandal
well that only really applies to the common ships, or if you have some BPs for a faction ship you're not going to build you got by grinding or from armadas
hybrid lark
I was much more of a fan of the trading up your items. Such as trading in 15 of one BP for 1 of a higher one.
vocal sandal
and for the common ships, you anyway getting all the BPs from research, so really the only ship you could be wanting BPs for and your alliance members have plenty of is the horizon to be able to build an extra one
hybrid lark
I have so many envoy BP’s I would love being able to trade those in for Horizon BP’s even if it’s just a few.
Well alliance members could help you with faction ships not just common.
vocal sandal
they can yes, but it means they have to spend faction credits on it, unless they have some lying around they will never use, so at the end of the day I could hardly see how every new member that turns 26 or 28 will suddenly get all the BPs from the alliance
hybrid lark
If the upper levels are dumping there faction credits on me then I would dump mine on those below me. The rate of faction BP’s funneling into players could get very large very fast. Especially if the player was focused on by players higher then them in a order system. There would be enough players in my alliance to buy my bortus in just a day. And then move on to another player. The 30’s using faction for 20’s and 40’s for 30’s and so on.
I would assume that level 50’s will get to a point they need resources and not a big use of faction credits.
vocal sandal
I'm not saying there isn't enough players in your alliance to get you a bortas in one day, just that if they have to do it for every player hitting 26/28 they'll run out of credits for their own use, so really isn't it the same?
hybrid lark
They will not need them for themselves the upper levels are suppling them as well.
vocal sandal
higher levels needs even more credits for the higher level ships...
hybrid lark
Most of The large alliances have many whales the faction credits for the most part would trickle down from the top very fast. As it sits now you control your rate of growth either by game time or your wallet. By having a trade in system it stays on that same level.
Would be nice to have a alliance storage of resources but the amount you could be allowed to be given per day limited. I could only be given 2mill trit from alliance storage per day. So I still need to play to get to my upgrade goal.
Anyway most of the really good ideas never happened. Still waiting on the crew loadouts for quick crew changes.
normal tide
@austere sand regarding faction rep lock. Please pass on to have the game have a 10mil lock and a 1bil lock. That would do what they are trying to add to the game without screwing over all the other that worked toward that goal

Dear $copely, thanks for insisting we Al move onwards & upwards, here's a thought, help us progress🖖😃 1st step, stop putting "common ship bps" in "drop boxes" in systems 30+, unless you will give us a way to redeem all that fluff you love padding our "awards" out with... & don't say "scrapyard" 🤦🏻 to build & tier, from scratch, just to scrap🤦🏻just what kind of math you using? If you think a) we got that kind of rss? & b) we are too dumb to see itsjust a rss sink 👀 so, help us out, & maybe we wont all just quit... Out of frustration, because YOU broke our game,

I have been thinking about the alliances. 74 people is a lot to keep on the same page. My suggestion is to cap alliances at 50. At each upper level, let the helps be a little stronger. Perhaps add a warp/repair time bonus at each upper level.
clear horizon
Our terminology in the game is naval in nature. We have fleets. We have ships. Our computer generated crew have naval ranks. So why haven’t you given our live players in the game the ability to achieve the same ranks? This game has been active for a year now. I think it is time to program into the game ranks consistent with everything else in the game. In an alliance we should have fleet admiral, rear admiral, admiral ranks, captain ranks, commander ranks , Lt. Commander ranks, lieutenant ranks , lieutenant jg ranks and ensign ranks. So why don’t we?
We don’t need level 1-4 of each just the ranks
hidden shore
Can you put a time out on lower level ships in the higher level systems? It's not uncommon for low level ships to sit on a 0 mine for days and no one can hit them since they are too low. Its clear they dont need the 3* resources to yet, so basically, they are wasting mine resource for folks trying to do dailies.
lyric mirage
Please put the hijacked legionary bps in my event store! I got the 40 last event, just curious why they arent an option for me this event.
Kindof dissappointed i went for it at all since you guys dont give enough opportunities to get the bps, by the time i build it ill have a sali or bortas and itll be completely outclassed.
Could also add hijacked ship bps to the augment store
rose field
faction levels that were already locked should remained locked/frozen. Also, going forward, recommenced the ability to lock as each higher level tier is achieved. So you would effectively have a floor until you achieve the next level lock within each tier

I have a suggestion based on gameplay with this new set of quests.
Would it be possible to "Forward" the ⭐ on a mission when it goes from one continuation mission to the next? The ⭐ feature is great! This would just keep me from having to search through for the next thing to do and re-⭐ it each time.

Idea for a ship:
E.C.S. Nebula
Ship ability: 50% of crew’s total health to mining bonus when mining G1 resources. Increases to 300% at level 50.
Extremely high cargo capacity & protected limit, power maxes out at 35k. Has no weapons, so cannot initiate an attack.

split yew
@austere sand The reversal of faction lock sucks. I was really hoping to get more than one faction at this rate. I’ll only be fed and it’ll be years before I get to 1B. I figure you guys won’t reverse it especially because of new ships that you’ll introduce as you go along. So what if you change it to a prestige type faction rep gain. Where it resets to zero. Kinda like going prestige in the call of duty games. Every 10M or so. So it kinda locks at respected. Can’t go below it. But at least gives others who want more options to play with different factions. Like I can focus on prestige 2 for fed or start on getting prestige 1 for another faction.
worldly nova
@split yew - the mod team has relayed feedback regarding faction unlock. I have no idea what, if anything, will come from it. But we did pass the sentiment to the team. 🖖
lavish oracle
Plz allow anyone to hit 0 miner no matter the level otherwise a very low level takes over a mine and prevents others from mining there.
muted mortar
Even better, since you can automatically bump ships from nodes when they recall and cancel then you can obviously automatically bump miners from zeroed nodes.
coral musk
Suggestion: I think it would be a good idea to be able to change your current crew in ship around while in space. Instead of having to go all the way back to base just to move crew around. Is seems normal for crews to move around within ship without having to return home.

You got the scrapyard wrong 🤦🏻it's supposed to be about all the useless blueprints you throw bucketloads off at us!!! Give us a way to exchange or redeem these or stop padding our drop boxes with this fluff!!! Common ship blueprint should NOT DROP from lvl 26+ systems... We could forgive lvl 28,but anything above that you're just urinating on us & calling it rain👀 & don't 5hik for a second we are dumb enough to build these things to scrap🤦🏻... We know it's a rss sink & a pointless exerise... It's only functionis to clear space in hanger, for the whale who built ships to win events.... & what do we get? The 99.9% only have their common ships & only the envoy is duplicated.. 🤦🏻When do we get something to progress? As you fully intend to push us all onwards & upwards towards the new content, how about helping us ge there instead of making it "mission impossible & make the majority quit🤦🏻 piss poor business model kicking player base in teeth, even the whales are groaning, so please stop killing our game 🙏🏻🙏🏻😇

and might as well add speed ups too....since not building or research i would suggest using the same ship repair speed ups be able to be used to expedite scrapping

fleet command is without fleets!!! make possible for players to form fleets to make combat more attractive. now its bigger takes on smaller. but what ifseveral smaller form a fleet and take on the big guy?

Just a small suggestion about the new scout hostiles. To me a scout should be seen in a hostile space rather than their own space (Klingons in fed, rom in Klingon etc) as to me a scout is more likely to be scouting an enemy rather than their own systems

Can we have an allies option so that we can add allies and they approve and we can see them colour coded for ships and bases in system but not galaxy. Also leave an option to attack just incase we want to break it off with surprise attack.
This is for alliance admins and not individuals.

Is it serious that faction reward box price was increased from 10 to 300 credits ?
I mean 50 would be ok, or 100 with way more valiueable things inside
hot roost
It would be nice to be able to mine in Augment space. I am listed as Pawn level in the faction store, but when i click into the system it says untrustworthy and i get sttacked. There appears to be a bug with the augments.
nocturne lantern
But 300 is insane
@hot roost they attack always
As more you rise they attack heavier
polar tartan
Plz fix this, its so annoying he has been there for for lond period of time on zero node. Which is agrevaiting to allot of higher lvls
nocturne lantern
Suggestion:moving officers around while away seems reasonable to do. Like one before said. Please also add an engineer spot to a bridge and some officer abilities that can mend your ship while in space. It is so annoying to be able to do most of the hostile kills and then miss one to go back to repair.
Idea would be some engineer officers with that ability. When you get him or her unlocked you can use repair speedups to fix your ship. It fixes a percentage of a ship that it would in base.
For example if it takes let's say two 10 minute speedups in base to repair so in space it would take 3 or 4 of 10min speedups to fully fix your ship. Then when you use 2 you get a half fixed ship or smth like that
split topaz
Haha @polar tartan I’m on the same server. That guy in aiti has been there for almost 3 months
polar tartan
😮 i had not realized that it has been that long.

The game should have a “special” hostile that hits inactive players floating in space (30 days is fair)
All it would have to do is send them back their bases for repairs....seems like a fair system
polar tartan
Something but this is rediculous.
split topaz
Even send a Game Notification 1 day in advance that you’ve been targeted for inactivity

Planet Scanning Missions: you know what would really fix this game easy? planet scanning missions...like there must be thousands of planets...and for each one you scan, or "send away team to" (kind of like mining), you get rewards...that would be more in line with the spirit of Trek anyway

Why does the game censor the word 'pawn' when it is an Augment reputation level used in the game? We aren't supposed to use the games own terminology?

Since I’m in good idea fairy mode this morning, I’d like more events like Mirror Mirror. It was nice that there were simple events that resulted in gaining player shards. And I could purchase the ability to do them several times over. There’s should be more of those for the other epic officers (Gorkon, Nero, Pike, etc). Additionally they should be on a recurring and rotating schedule. It would be nice to know that (for example) Mirror Mirror came every 90 days or something. I get that there’s some in the event store from time to time but they are seldom epic.
wide lintel
first off thank you for restoring faction lock. Now if you really want to steer the players towards single faction use why not make the ships above the 10M lock rep based. For example I have -2M rep with Klingons. but I also built a B'Chor. Until my rep is high enough with the Klingons I can't use the B'Chor and if I fall out of favor with the Klingons then I lose access to the B'Chor.
warped mesa
for the last...idk let's say two weeks: every time I log in I get the banner push notifications at the top of my screen.... ALL of them...since the last time I logged in...
So yeah basically the last two weeks I log in and put my phone down for between 1 and gag 5mins to allow the pushes to clear out of my game.
Extremely frustrating
rare viper
I have a suggestion ... how about a store where we can trade out Parsteel, Tritanium, and Dilithium in for tokens ... you could do it for a cost, say 10% so if I have 10Million Dilithium, I can get 9Million worth of tokens.
You can also limit the access to the store to once a week to limit what you can protect.
hybrid lark
@warped mesa if I don’t close my app out all the way then when I get on I get all the banners too. But if I make sure to completely close the app out in the background this doesn’t happen. I’m on a iPhone maybe it’s different for you.
copper grotto
Suggestion to have officers operate the station or a station commander/admiral (it is fleet command after all). Each group could provide a bonus. Ie one class increases research speed, one defence and one build speed. This would promote the upgrading of officers and make the larger pool more relevant.
hybrid lark
@rare viper the idea sounds great but everyone would turn there resources into tokens and then no need shields anymore and no more raiding. I like raiding at times and wouldn’t want to lose it.
rare viper
So maybe a once a month trip and a limited amount to change to tokens
warped mesa
@hybrid lark I'm on android. It doesn't matter unless I go to my app and clear Cache and Data ...but then the game has to reload all game States and profile sync 😐
@hybrid lark this has only recently become an issue. Seems to have started after one of the last 3 or 4 updates
hybrid lark
@warped mesa wow I’m glad to be on the iPhone then. I can see your frustration when I just close the game and not the app and open it back up to move miners I get the endless banners too.
signal matrix
A suggestion I have which reflects reality. How about being able to swap positions of crew already on the ship without having to return to the station. All crew you can chose from have to be on that ship. Thoughts?
warped mesa
fur realz. I get 'incoming attack' app pushes and I'm like well there goes that ship guess I'll check the damage after my game 'loads' 🙄
hybrid lark
@signal matrix that idea has been pushed many times and still sounds like a good idea. I’m sure most players would love this.
@warped mesa The bright side is they moved the banners so you can at least read chat and respond while waiting.
signal matrix
Mining in Nekosa whilst based in Xerxes has triggered that - loving them warp times to swap Stonn With T’Pring
warped mesa
For crew mods during flight: I think all officers should be freely movable (say thrice per trip away from base) EXCEPT for the captain- I think the captain should be set and left at base if you'd like to change then you have a single use (per trip) mutiny option [because on a real ship: the captain can move however (s)he wants to whereever (s)he wants. BUT a captain is the captain until a large majority decides they are unfit.
This way you dont have people just swapping back and forth back and forth. This gives a limit that I think would give us all a deeper game play with more strategy 😃🤔🤔👍😊
@hybrid lark nope not on android. Still blocks off chat and missions/dailys/archive tabs
hybrid lark
@signal matrix @warped mesa or maybe even have a player on player time penalty where you can’t change officers when in a player base attacked in the last 5 min. That way players couldn’t try to change officers specifically to target another ship instant
@warped mesa did u update your app after the last big change?
warped mesa
yep
hybrid lark
How about increased warp speed button that brings your shields instantly to 5% staying there until out of warp and then having a shield recharge penalty causing shields to recharge very slow. After fully recharged then shields go back to normal and warp speed button is available again.
warped mesa
Wrap range* would be better
hybrid lark
You would make it to help your alliance in a battle faster but be very weak when you arrive or get to that armada on time but have almost no shields.
Also would give lots of research areas and a chance for smaller ships to beat the bigger ones.
verbal ermine
Are there any Plans to Bring 5minute shields for baseraids Back, would make raiding a bit more fluffy
hybrid lark
@warped mesa I thought they already reduced the warp number in several areas already didn’t they?
warped mesa
Or you could have the option of range or speed boost (for the same penalty). Either way you only get one shot
So say 1- 100% speed boost (departing not returning) OR 2- range increase of...idk 4/5/6 (once you get there you can only come back to systems in your normal range)
hybrid lark
@verbal ermine I doubt it if I leave one strong ship behind in my base while raiding it makes most players pass on attacking with shields down. The resources to break through my ship and station would be costly. Although the new level ranges for pvp might make that a thing of the past.
I was trying to stay on line of Scotty we need more power and we r giving it all we got captain we even drained the shields. Warp range hasn’t been a issue for me.
verbal ermine
Still enough Bases Out there i can raid and i can still onehit lvl23 Bases without ship, Just dont want to wait 10 minutes to See If the Guy ist online everytime^^
warped mesa
also I know this is the wrong chat but....why can't I scrap any ships???? I have leveled it to 16 and only option is to jeep leveling it up.... 🤔
keep*
I'm stuck on range at the moment.. The next 5missions I have are a range 4/5 or ++ too far 😐
hybrid lark
@verbal ermine very true I love the no ship one hit crack on the 22’s for me. I guess I could see a use for it. I never had a chance to see it. It must have been removed before I started. I really don’t mind leaving my shields down while playing or raiding though even with no ships in station. They won’t crack as of yet with a 600k survey ship and the big attack ships wouldn’t get enough resources on a one hit crack to hurt me. But might be different being able to be hit by 45’s.
@warped mesa there is a research that must be done as well.
warped mesa
I have that. You have to research to unlock the building....did that....now I can't use the bloody thing
hybrid lark
@warped mesa also think there was a level restriction before you could use it like armadas.
Maybe level 17?
So level 17 and up scrapyard before u can scrap
warped mesa
my base is lvl 23. Scrap is 15
hybrid lark
I think that is the issue then.
warped mesa
Omfg seriously then why tf have lvls 1-16!?!?!
hybrid lark
Keep leveling it higher it will open for business soon.
warped mesa
If you can't use it till 17 ....then make that 1
hybrid lark
Agreed.
hybrid lark
I just looked it’s level 20
At level 20 you should be able to scrap that envoy lol
Mine is level 28 and I can scrap all the 3* ships
But u get almost nothing unless the ship is level 10 or higher.
warped mesa
This is to scopely or whoever: then wtf do they have % numbers for building lvls below 20..... If you can't use it till then...then they are meaningless numbers
So basically you had someone program this info and you paid them....to do a job....that you aren't even using 🤔
Yes hello I'd like to apply for a position, please contact me
I mean seriously wtf
lethal edge
@warped mesa do you start to upgrade a building from x lvl or from 0?
Yes building can be for x lvl + player but till players upgrade their building from 0 to x lvl they need to get boost or what is the meaning of upgrading?
hybrid lark
@warped mesa Idk maybe my info wasn’t right. I know we had issues with alliance members not being able to use it but after they kept leveling it they was able to use. I leveled mine to my level of 28 before trying it. I been building kehra vahklas and kumari for awhile now and have a lot to scrap. At least 10 of each but doing calculations now as to material to level ship to 10-20 and the scrap return to see if I can find a happy spot.

2- yes I have uninstalled and reinstalled stfc
3- yes I restarted my phone (after uninstall and before reinstall)
warped mesa
no recycle button. Only upgrade
hybrid lark
You have to be level 20 to build the building so maybe the building needs to be level 20 before it will open up.
Try leveling it to 20 it’s only 3 more levels and see what happens.
warped mesa
that's not the point. I mean it is yes....but the point is IF there is a lvl restriction.. .. Then why do the % call outs list anything BELOW THAT LEVEL 🤔🤔🤔

tacit cloak
We have been seeing a problem in our server where a level 14 will move his base into a level 29 star system like Morska and sit on a crystal mine till it zeroes out then stay on that mine for days,we here have been wondering,because we don’t have anybody here that can take out said ship,if by any chance you can implement in the game an automatic recall on any ship that sits on a zero mine for more than 24 hours,so that way we don’t have someone doing this out of spite and ruining the game play for the rest of us.thank you.
warped mesa
^ I like
Maybe set an algo for equal to length of zeroed time to time for that player to mine that node. After that progressively higher bounty hunters hit until removed with idk a 1min interval between attacks (to give the player a [hard] nudge)
tacit cloak
Ya that would work but as long as the bounty hunter is non faction related and goes after said zero miner anywhere
dusty drift
Anyone suggested yet to have hijacked faction miners available through Augment affiliation? I would try for those for sure.
warped mesa
yeah I was wondering hen augs would get a ship... 🤔 besides botany that is 😐
tacit cloak
Yes and also not just a zero node but a ship with a full cargo hold too,they can still sit on a full mine
tacit cloak
Thank you,just a thought
dusty drift
Though I don’t see any hijacked ships flying around on my server much. So may not be worthwhile
warped mesa
or maybe after a set amount of time for 'lazy miners' you could select 'set bounty' and hire a hit on a ship (say once every 24hrs to be fair) and that bounty will be relatively priced and it will take out the player (meaning instant or under 30seconds flight and it could be maxed out lvl 50) then the node is clear for use
Could be fun 😈
static drum
I have a suggestion I would like to be known .. New members should have the ability to choose a specific server to join ... I have friends from other games that would like to join but they are reluctant to do so because they don't want to be separated in different servers....
tacit cloak
That would be Awesome @warped mesa
warped mesa
jt but... I mean dont make them sound all codependent or anything 🙄 😂 again jt carry on @static drum
🖖
would be a great addition though agreed
mmm now I'm hoping they do bounty hiring 😯😋👻👽
secondary thought : could be set up as a 'bounty page'
Someone sets a bounty: it shows up on the listing and any player can go after the bounty (minus same alliance) and collect the set bounty. Might have to set up a bounty token store or just have it at a flat pay out per level of attacked player
This way its more community based and more interactive 😃
dusty drift
Maybe some players would finally get a clue when all of a sudden there are several bounties on their heads lol
In the battle log it can state killed by bounty hunter instead of players tag

Include the current state of the ship in the battlereports, like:

As a f2p even if you spend a half a day playing and have luck with refinery, you eventually will hit the officers wall, badges!
I think they should put them in 30 day loyalty chest, at least one of each will be reasonable.
For example, you need 3 of them and around 15k faction credits to max a rare officers. If so, you barely can max on officers per month...more likely 2 months.
But you still need officers shards and officers xp, so will not be that much loss for them if they put in 30 day chest

Congratulations scopely on going to lock faction rep at 10 million on next update 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

trade ships would work, BUT there should be a catch if you are trading to another player those trade ship should be interceptable by other players
something i'd like added to the game is to do with the chat system, add a system channel so players in the same system can chat to each other without needing to open private chats
also ilove to see more of the 35 - 39 lvl systems have base anchor planets added
also add rare bonus hostiles that when killed drop a guaranteed bp of that type of ship killed, for example you kill a rare centurion you get a cent bp kill a rare bortas you get a bortas bp, kill a rare brel you get a bp but these should be harder than normal ships of the same level
in eve online they were known as officer spawns, you would have to kill a few thousand normal hostiles then you would get an officer spwan that would drop high value loot. the same could be added into this game, for roms a tal shiar ship, for feds a section 31 ship for klingons the ship of the dead would work
they would be gaurenteed faction ship bp drops
they were always harder to kill than normal hostiles in eve online but they would drop good loot
i used to love getting the super carrier officer spawns
drop a titan on it and blap it with nyx and erebus, but it comes with high risk as i would have to commit two insanely expensive ships to kill it
if caught by other players losing a nyx and erebus would be like a €7000 rl money loss
i did lose my erebus once but that was in a gigantic fleet fight still have the nyx though

- Completed missions tab
- View ship owner on info pop-up while that ship is mining (so you don't have to zoom in or scan the ship). It's there for non-mining ships, it should be there for all ships.
- Complete redesign of the events store and everything else that scrolls horizontally and has more than 4/5 cards. This works absolutely horribly right now. It gives me as a user zero overview, it gives me zero information about things I haven't needed yet (but will I need it? how will I know? what if I miss my chance to buy it? no info!) and it always scrolls back to the first item in the list when going back/purchasing an item.
- Allow buying multiple items in stores. This should use the speed-up mechanic with a slider rather than showing 1 - 3 options.
- Use confirmations! Holy hell, there are zero confirmation in this game. If you accidentally buy or delete something, welp, bye! Should be with every action that costs you something in missions, buildings, research, stores, etc.
- Let me hide the pop-up next to the mission button, let me hide the chat, let me hide other things! I have way too many things in my display that are taking up space. Why do I need an alliance button and an inbox button? Why aren't these two notification tabs in the same panel of galaxy/alliance/private? The mission pop-up sucks too, maybe I don't want to upgrade my Operations? Go away pop-up!
- Parsteel and Tritanium look way too similar, I don't want to go blind by having to stare at it from too close up. Either change the icon or mirror it at least... Something.
- We need a better tutorial and a comprehensive FAQ. Not what we have now. I'm adept at learning games. Anyone who isn't or doesn't care to read up on the game will abandon this game. There are so many things a new player can see that are unexplained and unclear.
- Galaxy/system: pressing system should go to system view of the current planet, NOT my home planet. There's an entire extra button for the home planet.
- Let me add coordinates when I search by planet name
- Chat needs to be fixed. It doesn't work well right now. For example, typing and switching conversations retains the draft. The draft should be saved in the chat I wrote it in, not transfer along.
- The chat preview also keeps switching tabs to the gc, even when there's nothing new there, annoying.
- Have to ask alliance for help before I can reach the speed-up options. Why? Add the (rather useless) alliance thing in the speed-up menu. And explain that it's just -1 minute, because it honestly looks like it doesn't do anything at all. And fix it if it doesn't work for ships.
- Better explain what the different recruit options are, why should I care about which category? Will my Cadet Figuheerlijk eventually upgrade into a regular Figuheerlijk or do I have to start putting work in getting a Premium one? Or an Ultra one? Or...
- More clear visual hints when you can build a new building somewhere.
- Max. 54 missions? Really, no warning? I ended up having 54 missions I couldn't complete because all of them were suddenly too hard to beat compared to the ones I did directly before that. What's the point of archiving if it's not actually archived and still counts against my limit? Maybe you should add customizable labels instead
- There should be an option in settings to visually diversify bookmarked planets on the galaxy view. They're bookmarked after all, I'd expect a star or other icon somewhere.
- Why do all alliances have inactive level 1 creators? If the creator is offline for a month, they should be kicked and the next oldest active member should take their place.

👍👍👍👍That is a fantastic list of potential improvements. Except for the trit/parsteel thing, I’ve no idea how that’s an issue 🤣
muted mortar
@hexed violet yes, build a new mining ship and don't upgrade its laser then you can sit all night on g3 mines and piss off everyone who scans the system until someone comes along who either doesn't care about roe or notices you are using a non mining or suboptimal crew and decides your ship is the righteous sacrifice to the gaming gods. and they would be right to do so, don't night mine it's rude.

Just swap the crew at night 🤷🏻♂️
stable scaffold
It would be nice if we could Colour code allies/friends so that new crew members or even old crew members know not to hit them
slim haven
The rate of acquisition for independent credits is very slow in comparison to other factions and is a major obstacle to upgrading augment faction officers. Please consider adding a missions to the Daily Goals to collect data from Augment Space, that rewards with additional Independent (not augment) faction credits, etc (similar to other faction mining dailies).
slim haven
Please scale the mining rates of steel, trit and dili nodes as the warp range required to reach them increases, similar to the way that latinum and data nodes work. The amounts of rss required as you increase in level are phenomenal and on low pop servers it is simply not feasible to acquire it by raiding; and not practical on any server to acquire through mining. There are plenty of rss nodes in high warp systems that go unused and an increased mining rate would provide an incentive to use them. On high pop servers, this would make it easier for lower level players to access nodes, as those who need to mine rss would seek out higher yield ones.

Would like to upgrade role of admiral. Should be able to send a global message to his alliance. Should be able to give the permissions tho a playr or commander of his choice. Furtermore he should be able to see every base of his members, so he can help them with growing. This should be possible to 2 more commanders.
Is it posdible to give the admiral the possibility to organize a vote, for example when somebody wants to join the alliance or.....

A way to duel Alliance members would be cool, like a Battle Simulation or whatever
open violet
I enjoy getting base resourses tokens but kinda feel it's gone a bit overboard with it lately. It's so difficult to find bases to raid. Only the big players seem to have any and they are too big to raid. Event rewards should be a good mix of raw base resourses and tokens. A 50/50 split of the reward could work nicely.
Especially after the update which made base defences useful.
split topaz
@open violet that’s why I asked for armadas to be used in pvp. Logistics prob need to get worked out but that would bring base raiding back....maybe make alliances use rare tokens for base raiding (w/ armadas)...disband them if the base is protected at the end of the timer. Directives might get wasted (but that’s the risk). Base raiding comes back. Scopely makes money. Whales get put on notice.
nocturne lantern
<@&509691205798592532> can I suggest an exchange system on armada initiatives? We don’t get enough rare or epic initiatives in return for killing the targets. What about if we could trade our uncommon for rare and rare for epic? There of corse would be an exchange rate but say 1000 uc for 200 rare, or 1000 rare for 500 epic would give players a pathway to collecting those as opposed to buying. We get the uc initiatives with our dailies so then it would encourage saving as well.
Another option for rare or epic would be to allow the alliances to pool their initiatives for an attack. That would then encourage teamwork. If there are 5 slots, and everyone contributes 100 epic initiatives, then the alliance has truly started a unified attack.

Saved Officer Configurations to easily swap between different crews. It's best to change crew based on what you are doing, like farming Red I use Starfleet Academy, Blies Glory in the Kill, neither of those work on Yellows so I use something else for that then have Aux Controls for base defense. Being able to hot-swap between them would be nice.

we have been asking for better access to armada directives. keeping fingers crossed
also saving crew configurations is a big thing we have pushed for

Not sure if these have been mentioned but
- the offers shop need a lot less 99 packs and more 9.99 or 4.99 packs. And quit removing the lower priced ones after a player uses them in order to try to force to by higher priced. Most of us can’t drop 99 bucks on a pack. But can drop 5-10, I think the volume of sales would surprise you at that level.
- ability to convert 2 start materials to 3 stars.
- singular material packs in the Offer store
- rearrange crews on same ship in space

As mentioned before, a friends list would be a great help.
As well as other things.

<@&509691205798592532> can scopely not make events that can't be done. Today came the "Military Supremacy" event which is basically build the Northstar or Franklin to complete. Except there is no way of getting any blueprints and it's no longer available to buy in my store. Duh.... smart move on scopelys part. (Sarcasm). There is an event store you can get franklin BPs right now but with a limit on it so that's not going to work. I could kill 1000 level 26s to complete the event but most people dont have ships that can hit that high. Hence why we need the Northstar in the first place. Scopley has a LONG HISTORY of not thinking events out. Please pass this along.

You can do it by killing hostiles🤔 @desert otter
desert otter
Hence why I mentioned killing 1000 level 26 is not feasible.

In which I'm not level 22. I go toe to toe with a level 26. So I would have to spend a fortune to get latinum or speed ups for every hostile. That's not feasible.

We need a way to change admirals when the admiral is aol for a long time.
marsh basalt
Recommendation. There are a LOT of inactive bases taking up space in heavily populated systems in our server. I would like to have a button that pops up when a system is full that allows players to flag bases as suspected inactive. This will prompt Scopely to send an alert to the player with a 7-day countdown. If they don't respond within 7 days the base is relocated to a low level system with an open planet.

Please improve the monthly pack by adding "auto gather"for resource generators (par, trit, dil)

@marsh basalt this has already been implemented. If a player does not log in for a certain amount of time their base is automatically relocated to a level 1 system. We have seen it happen live during day changeovers and can confirm it is working. I believe the time required for this to occur is 1 month inactive.
nocturne lantern
What about not doing the armada events until the visual bug is fixed. It shows less power that’s actually there. This results in failure when there is clearly enough strength. This is costing valuable directives (which some people pay for) which you do not offer enough in the daily’s to replenish.

Any chance of a “Last Active” on members list for Alliance Admirals to track members level of activity ?
charred crow
Suggestions:
1: Bring back $5, $10, and $20 packs, AND either A) make them Level reactive, so we arent getting a bunch of useless materials for our levels. Or B) give us the option to purchase what we are really after. I.E. Ship parts, Materials, peace shields, speed ups, etc. And allow US to select which grade of parts or materials we are getting.
2: take one of the level 50 locked slots and create a market for level 20+ where we can trade in old ship blueprints, parts, and materials for either resources or market credits for higher grade parts, materials, and blueprints. Or even for older materials and parts if we so choose. Making the market level based would be a good idea to prevent access to higher grade materials. Like making specific ship blueprints available 2 market levels higher than the required level for the shipyard to build the ship, or even at the level of the ship but only unlocked once the player has built one. You could also add speed ups, and peace shields to the market, to make it more flexible.
3: Increase the amounts available in mines, materials by at least ×2, and Resources ×10. Mining in the game is difficult enough, but with the amounts available, it's pathetic.
4: Give alliance Admirals and Commodores better ability to track their members. The ability to see who is online at a given time. When offline members last logged in.
5: give the Chat system a MUCH better refresh rate, and more stability.
6: Seriously raise the respawn rate of Armadas, especially during events. And Hostiles in systems, set the systems up to have X number of a specific hostile in it at any given time, 30% -1 level, 40% system level, 30% +1 level. When those ships are destroyed they respawn THAT level of ship.
charred crow
On the Shop packs, I would also like to note that as we raise levels the lower dollar amount packs disappear, I'm currently at level 26, and predominantly have access to only $50 & $100 packs. I can guarantee you, I will NEVER buy any of these. While $5, $10, and $20 I have zero issues with buying as I am able to, IF they give a value I feel is remotely worth spending the money for. Lets honestly think about this. A million people will buy a $5 pack at least once a week, while MAYBE a hundred will buy the $100 pack. (I'm not in marketing research, I don't know exact figures) so lets break down the math based on my numbers, 5 × 1,000,000 = 5,000,000. And 100 × 100 = 10,000. Also these packs need to actually be worth buying. They MUST be variable, based on levels. A level 26 player is going to have VERY little use for 2☆ materials and/or ship parts. Level 10 - 20 players would have a use for the 2☆ materials and parts. Level 20 - 38ish have almost zero need for 2☆ Common and uncommon materials, and even less so for ship parts. Also there need to be bundles SPECIFIC to what we are actually after, Peace shields (ONLY, maybe some latinum), Speed ups (ONLY), Ship parts (Specific type, specific grade, ONLY), Materials (Specific type, specific grade, ONLY), Resources, (Specific type, Resoruce amount and/or tokens, ONLY) and there in lies the rub, people will buy tokens, unstealable amounts of a specific resource to stock up for WHEN they need it. I'd LOVE to be able to go "Hey, I need 100k Dilithium." ~Tap shop... scroll, scroll. "$5? Sweet!" ~purchase~

Please give us the ability to reassign crew members (ie. change Captain) on a ship without having to recall your ship to base. This would be particularly useful in those times when you are on an Ore node in a system that has both Ore and Crystal and when it zeroes out you move off and when it refreshes, it changes to Crystal. Also, the fact that the nodes change each time is pointless and annoying.

How about NPC stations with rss. So players can raid and get rss. Would help those that don't like pvp aswell, as those that do have other targets and may not raid other players as much. Obviously the rewards would need to be worth it though, so decent amounts of dilithium and tritanium.
You could basically just reuse the armada system as a quick win, and replace directives with decent tritanium rewards.

It still blows my mind that if I spend $100 of my hard earned money on a ship power pack I'll only get 90k of ship xp... that is about 2 ship lvls for anyone in the 20 lvl range. If I'm gonna pay $100 I would need a little over 500k ship xp at least.

Also is there any future of being able to trade in credits (saw exchange place holder removed in ops) to be able to get ships bps from other factions even though we may be negative. We love the designs and we will want to play with the ships.

We absolutely need the option and ability to save the settings of different crew arrangements, call them "teams"
Use Dragonball dokkan battle as a template or as an example for creating something similar for saving different teams of crew arrangements, that way it doesn't take 5-10 minutes to swap or change crews when your in a time pinch and absolutely need a proper pvp crew setup(like when in a rush trying to come to the defense of alliance members, allies, and friends when you were in the middle of hostile hunting, doing missions, and/or mining, when seconds and minutes count very much!)

I find it kind of frustrating that a player can suicide his mining ship after being totally loaded and die but yet be able to keep all his resources you should make the ship drop its cargo if it gets killed!!!
And to allow the cargo to float in space for other players to pick it up for 6 minutes of the time deplete and then disappear
And base power should be off the officers left in the base that aren't on ships to give them their bonus to the base only
eternal heath
Can you increase the spawn rate of armadas. These armada events are horrendous. I spent literally an hour searching for a 29-33 armada and found 0.
Event: kill armadas. (But there’s none to kill)
There is literally no downside in increasing the respawn rate. Also have been no lvl 30 epics spawned on our server for over 12 hours. The event is 90% searching through systems looking for armadas. 6% finding one that another alliance has already started 2% asking to join super low lvl ones that have almost a non existent reward and 2% actually participating in an armada that’s within your level range. 🖖

It would be neat to have an upgradable parameter for when your ships gets scanned!!! " A certain sound " Base scan would sound different then A ship B ship C ship D ship E ship"
A far incoming attack gets set, your warning should loud long sound,
I'd ship is closer to your ship the quieter the sound is
And no range at all NO sound visual sight

To be able to move officers within a ship while in space to move to different positions on the ship
Could be a cost to scan

I don't know if this has been brought up about the bridge crew, but heres how I would atleast try. Ok, I was in the navy and I got a good idea for the bridge and crew members. There are a lot of people that were in or are still in the military playing this game.
Now, the bridge of a navy ship usually have atleast 6 people on it, but not trying to over due it lol. Atleast 5 on bridge
1, should have 1 strong Captain to boost officers stats. 1 [CO]
2, should have 1 strong Executive officer, make him a combo officer to aid the Cap. 1 [XO]
3, Should have 1 strong officer combo for Comms/ Nav. 1[AUX]
4, should have a strong Cheng, combo for Engineering/Tactical,1[CHENG]
5 Should have a strong Med officer 1[MD]
However yall want to put the officers is fine but just need to be a little more realistic for the ships bridge, as for the crew members they are fine as u have them now, we can pick and choose who we want in those positions. Just a suggestion, hopefully you'll consider it thx

Is there any chance of three more officers being added to the "Surveyors and Miners" group, this would allow folk to mine at maximum speed on all three resources at once. The faster people can mine the more nodes are free for others to use
wicked dome
How about a reasonable amount of independent credit? with the current setup on can max out khan in low less than 847 days of not missing a single day of data mining. Plus the amount of augment credit one can get per day means somedays I have to choose whether to get recruit or independent tokens. At least make the darn thing possible to achieve.
don't forget other augment officers credit requirements either. All considered it is about a solid decade of mining data everyday 😂😂
@true olive Good suggestion although not feasible for gameplay mechanics considering current state of the game. The possible combos would just make any ship do everything and no trade-offs. think of a saladin with infinitrle shield burn and hull breach. I would rather have it to be a choice of any and counterable. Otherwise your suggestion is really cool one.
undone crown
The augment faction is weak, they have no ships, you cant move your base there.....big waste of the space....data mining is not worth the time....and what do you get for maxing the faction.....not much...How about add the cardassians in the game as another faction....the feds,roms,and klingons hate them.....yes would be harder to attain them till other faction or factions are naxd...... Dreadnought class ships a game I played Starfleet battles had them in it was a box game..... klingons had the B10 forget what the roms and feds had but the roms had enveloping plasma torps....I think adding the Borg is not a option yet ...or the dominion. Starfleet battles also had a race call the hydrans.....ships were pretty badass though. Think the excelsior class is a dreadnought class.....just thoughts

Just an idea can you make it so that when a player mines a resource node down to zero their ship backs off to a nearby random location after a few mins if they don't do anything themselves, or send the ship back to base. This will help free up nodes which are a valuable commodity.
frozen halo
@uneven veldt If the node goes zero.....can't you just blow their ship to a billion bits?!? That also frees up nodes....

no autodestruct, just a nudge is enough to release the mine, after lets say 5 minutes after depletion/cargo full
same treatments for ships hiding under a node coz they arrived later
nudge those outside the touch area of a mining object

@vocal sandal I know people who have max shards even now 😉 swarm event for higher levels give way more shards. at 33 I get 11.

The ability to combine shields would be amazing. I often have to waste a 1 day shield because an 8 hoir shield isn't good enough. Preventing shield abuse can be as easy as setting a limit for how much you can compound. For example, start with an 8 hour shield and apply another 1 hour shield for 9 total hours if protection, but limiting the shield length to one day and only shields that are already longer than one day not compound able

queen moss
What is wrong with the resources at the top?
cold kite
the fact that it only shows your G3 in my case and not the G2 as well
and this being the case throughout the game with almost everything (reward chests for example, you only see the tokens of the current month while you may have some from the previous month remain)
same for resources, you only see the big chest tokens, or whatever they squeeze in between, recruit as well
put the amount of resources you have for an object on the object itself
you do it with ship bp's and officers
in the resource tab for example, you could use the top bar to show you existing resources, instead of the tokens
small change, big usefull effect
and saves a lot of clicking, thus hits towards the server, thus resources
you no longer would need to click on view everytime on lower grade resources for example to see if have enough to do a refine
as they are also not marked with a red notification in the corner telling you you can
you get a count on the quicklink to refinery, but if it says 4 and you don't have bio minerals left. which 4th raw resource is it you can do ? you have to look through each item everytime, each time asking the server what to render in there, multiplied by the amount of players needing to do it
and I have a bunch more stuff like this that could improve ui usability for the players and save resources serverside as well
sliders in refinery, recruit chests, resource token pickup instead of the buttons, pick the amount you need using ONE hit instead of needing multiples
again. less clicks, less hits etc
another suggestion, remember the scroll position of from where you entered a subsection, for example (event) store, recruits, refinery, when you return to the list, you have to scroll all the way again, remembering the position on return makes it easier for the player
another suggestion, missions, do not force a user to make a choice now, allow them to do it later (when they want to continue the mission)
red notification markers on ships/officers, we don't need to know constantly how much officers we need to upgrade or how many ships we can still build, when there is a new one you haven't seen yet, THEN put the counter up, and also (with officers at least) MARK the new shown object (ships already does that)
inbox: allow archiving reports, treat all types of reports equal (pve/pvp expire differently at the moment), I sometimes see 'unread' pvp battle reports from weeks ago appearing at the bottom of the list
vocal sandal
@cold kite actually unless there is a cooldown, purchasing an item shouldn't exit back the previous screen at all... if you buy something from the event store just stay on the same screen and allow me to purchase it again or click back to go to the list...
cold kite
render engine: allow the user to determine the quality of the graphics (SD/MD/HD), toggle UMM, permanently disable certain transitions (like the chest pickup render) etc, the client has all setting for all resolutions
@vocal sandal hence, sliders, that would solve that issue too
vocal sandal
yes, but then it might as well go back to the beginning of the list
cold kite
hence the remember scroll position
vocal sandal
I mean it makes the remember scroll position redundant

if you can get as many items as you like, you have just about every chance what you want next is closer to the beginning than where you are

most screens only have a handful of options anyway - if they can be sorted logically at least it will take care of most of it
for example now the recruit screens have pushed the 2 options for the (beta was it?) tokens all the way to the end...
should have removed them altogether but at least it's something as for the first couple of days they were located at the beginning...
event store ordering is also pretty random at times, having UC ore and gas at the beginning and UC crystal all the way at the end 🤷♂️

buy an officer pack and have fun making 220 clicks just on standard recruit alone
to pick it up the current way
you know, that pack that gives you 4400 standard recruit tokens...
vocal sandal
Yes I know... been there done that 😂 😂
So a slider is a good option, or just don't kick back to previous screen would be a good start
cold kite
that only saves you 44 clicks
slider would reduce it from 220 to 6
click standard officer, slide to the amount you want to convert, ok, skip, open all, done
18 minutes of clicking reduced to less then 1 minute
duplicate by the amount of players that do these actions a lot
and you can do the math on resource save everywhere
and cooldowns, no problems, sliders can be very flexible
can it be bought with lat? allow to slide for more then you have
otherwise, put a max on it
the servers and logfiles will thank you as well
vocal sandal
Yes I agree with the slider option :)
Where cooldown applies then buttons are fine as obviously it's there to limit your options

the chances of any FTP or low budget player reaching lvl 30 is less than 10% i think there is a point reached at about lvl 25 where there is a realization that unless you start dropping a few whole paychecks there is no point in continuing.
that is why the rss required to upgrade needs to be cut in half at minimum. the repair times need to be also cut in half at minimum, I have never seen a game try so hard to get you off of the game as this one. Supercell. a few years ago, the army's training times? were astronomical. I'm talking 5+ hours waiting time to build heroes taking about that long to heal. with only 2 armies to build you could attack 2 times per 5-6 hours. People lose interest when they can't play. that's a fact of every game.
What did they do? they revamped the entire army building schematic, threw the old system out entirely and made a new one, one that was 20% the time it took to build originally, made army compositions that you can save to use later to build faster. They saw a resurgence in people playing again. when they added new TC levels and building levels, did the resource counts stay the same? NO they went down at lower levels. granted there was a LITERAL cap on what you could carry. not here where there is no amount over capped to what your base can hold, which makes hoarding hold a higher and higher risk the longer you gather more.
And the higher in level you go the more dangerous to play your game becomes as the level gap to attack players becomes.
This model is UNSUSTAINABLE to low budget or no budget players. If you have no bank to play the moment you run out of shields is the day you should quit this game because there is no way you can possibly continue forward.
It's scopely's not so subtle way of telling you to go kick rocks, because we don't want you here yeah we made the game free to play, free to download, but it was never our intention that we wanted you to stay playing our game.
you just have to get just far enough into the game to realize it's an "unscrupulous hand gesture"

Can we have separate buttons for System and Galaxy views? Seems to take a loooong time to switch between these screens sometimes. I seem to repair a lot of ships because of the delays in switching being attacked by Rom/Klingon hostiles because not welcome in those systems. Or is this just an iPad issue?
It would also be nice if we could get some immediate feedback from our suggestions- whether you will at least consider them!
There are also characters that don’t really have a purpose because the stations don’t have a ‘bridge’ / control room where you can post them to make use of them for your station. Their officer abilities could make your station stronger etc.

Suggestion: Faction Rep & Credits - repeatable station (mine/hunt) missions from hub systems in faction space
Getting these both from dailies & events is unnecessarily slow. It should help the bottom line (store spends) as people will purchase packs for mats/speedups/upgrades
As a side effect - due to faction creds being more "available" - people will tend to build more ships, rather than say, holding out for a specific one
Hhaving credits & rep more predictable and within the hands of the players will make people generally pretty happy
It also caters to players of all levels
Thoughts? (Feel free up upvote this idea) 😄
Full disclosure - I struggle with federation credits (I'm lvl 26)

Suggestion: Speedups - applying a 1d speedup to a 20h job, should give you +4h credit applied to the next job

A potential side effect is that people would buy larger speedups

Would it be possible to turn the BB and chicken into specialist mining ships that can only mine their respective material. And then massively increase their protected limits to avoid such frequent ship visits or the need to watch them constantly to avoid silly over cap mining hits.

There are a finite number of mining nodes
Having people camp the nodes reduces the availability for all
I understand the issue but..

How about missions for the D’Vor make it more readily accessible and make faction ships more readily accessible once all bps are acquired. Also have a way to mark allies and enemies that way we don’t shoot friends
shell hemlock
You could seed bps of the DV into the uncommon armada reward pack to make it more available
My suggestion above would help with the faction ship availability
You could also tweak the faction store, make the store items available at all rep levels but adjust the cost
better rep, lower cost
@stable scaffold tbh I think a better fix for mining is warp range. Remove it and people will spread more to systems with more nodes avilable

Please put a limit on how low someone from your alliance can join an armada. We have folks level 30 and above showing up and bumping level 24 range folks on level 21 aramadas. Can't get experience and needed rewards if a high level player takes most of the reward or bumps you completely.

Add basic things:
- A ship's manage page does not display the amount of shield and hull HP. It should. I've lost ships before because it's at shown 10%, but is nearly 0. Stop hiding the most essential information.
- In a battle log, display exactly how many points shield and hull were lost as well, also show it as a percentage. Plenty of space. Stop hiding essential information.
- Display the protected cargo in the manage display.
As mentioned before in the bugs section, the manage display must be reachable via button at all times. It's already reachable for every ship, but because of design issues you have to use another ship and then switch to it.
low island
Introduce a kos (kill on sight) / hunted list - in parallel to personal block lists but on the alliance config - to show toxic players to the alliance members in dark-red.
Or even allow warp-signature-tracking of 5 named people.
Something like that would allow to handle toxic players much better.
So less people stop to play because of the annoying factor of those players.

Scopely, I have a couple of suggestions.
-
There are number indicators that show the numbers of contributors to help with building and research. Could those same indicators be added to show the number help contributions for ships under repair?
-
As a player progresses through the game, daily activities continue to challenge a player with hostiles of a higher level. A few months back a patch update reversed the quantity to level for swarms. Example for pre-patch requirements: level 17 swarm: 20, level 16 swarm: 15, and level 15 swarm: 10. This was reversed to require fewer numbers of hostiles for higher level requirements while increasing the quantity for each descending level swarm. This adjustment made perfect sense, logical even. Currently, daily faction hostile requirements are still "backwards". Example: My reputation increased which presented a new challenge. 50 level 29 hostiles while requirements for level 28 hostiles dropped to, I believe, 10 hostiles. This seems backwards. As a player progresses I would expect the next higher and more challenging level to start off with a lower quantity requirement while the quantity requirements for lower level hostiles would increase. Given the modifications made for swarm space, might the same adjustments be applied to faction dailies? I appreciate your time and look forward to reading your response.

You guys have done some great work with improvements since I started playing April. I've been an officer for a few months now and I am completely disappointed with the tools you have for officers. We should be able to easily see players stats, time played per week . Power gained per week, help sent per week, etc. I know you have the data in a database and it blows me away that you haven't put together a portal for officers to have access to this data. I've been gaming since the 1990's and have never had a complete lack of player management data. What the hell is up with this? Why have I not seen others ask for such basic and essential player management tools and data?

@flat drift it would make my job as Admiral easier another thing that would make my job easier is a way to mark allies and enemies
Also how about the coolest ship in the Rodenburyverse the Andromida as a ship to get

@flat drift it has been asked for many times. If memory serves right, they have said they’re already working on it
shell hemlock
@flat drift So how about if they exposed an API that allowed the community to build a portal or for LCARS to integrate with it?
flat drift
@shell hemlock exposing the api would be a great idea as long as it is done securely. It could potentially expose data that we don't want enemies to have and scopely doesn't want competitors to have. It's so basic an idea I'm blown away they haven't done this before or within weeks of initial release of the game
With all the money I've paid scopely never mind everyone else the little bit of work needed is already generously funded
Also the ability to export the data to a csv file is crucial. The portal need not be pretty just functional
shell hemlock
oAuth provides a concept of scopes - which you can use to limit who can do what with the token that is generated
This would mitigate (but not eliminate) who has access to what
API's allow people to take and use the data in different ways
Like an LCARS extension for station upgrade planning, which would take into account what you currently have, research, etc
It could also help with mission planning - I know finding missions can be sometimes a pain
If Scopely did it - there are n different players who have 2*n different opinions on what it should be/do
Putting the dev of something into the players hands allows them to invest their time into the problem they want to solve
Throw on top a cherry with Scopely rewarding people who open-source their projects that interact with the API and the community can share/build
dusk ferry
Alliance members should be able to share/swap resources, materials, ship BP, etc.
frail ravine
Let's change the structure of warp range...
First, change all ship warp cores to affect speed only. Maybe a boost to attack and defense as a power upgrade.
Second, tie the warp range for all ships to a dilithium fuel matrix or some such which is located on the station. This upgrade is what controls the warp range.
Now all ships in your fleet can get to places. It would allow even the simple realta to be an actual scout/explorer. Older ships/miners would be a little more useful if it was arranged this way. You could move your car around anywhere and now worry about a slightly lower tier ship being cut off and worthless.
cold notch
Something that would be very useful would be the ability to have a ship "stand guard" while your mining ship is performing its task
Also possibly having the ship be able to be set to "auto return" when it's payload is full.... I have seen a lot of complaints of miners sitting on zero nodes

The game needs more alliance features in a big way. Sharing rss, functional marketplace, armadas against other teams.
During combat, esp during a base raid, if your ship gets destroyed you should not be able to instant repair. Have to spend 5 minutes min before rejoining. Consequences
More alliance events, better rewards and a revamped scoring system where #1 on the server isnt just based on power
There’s lots of content now, but it’s boring at higher levels

I think the game needs to be altered to where when you select klingon and your daily is mining crystal then your upgrades should reflect what you have to mine. I'm stuck at level 25 cause i have to mine ore to get uncommon ore. And the same with ship upgrades. So i can't complete my dailies cause i want to upgrade. So why not make it to where klingons mine crystal and uses that crystal to upgrade there ships and base. And the same with federation. That way it makes it more fair for everyone to upgrade.

Common resouces are hard to get. Im not talking about uncomons but parstel, tritanium and dilitium. Example. My legionary repair is now at t6 150k tritanjium. If i want to mine this is 15h of mining. Its not just me but everyone complains about that. My suggestions would be 1) increase storage and generator output greately. Now these are prety much useless in terms of rss gathering 2) increase mining rates and mines of these resources by 5 or 10 times. 3) lower the cost and time of repairs. 4) increase rewards in ebents. Im doing all dailyes and events and my balance is still negative. Just build new horizon and am unable to lvl it up becouse i need tritanium for repairs.
And i refuse to pay money to get rss for repairs
shell hemlock
Nice idea @nocturne lantern but how do you stop people having alts to feed themselves?
+1 @nocturne lantern I was thinking of this - station rss output should be improved a lot and it should auto collect
A side effect would be that these stations would be farmable 😄
rss output from the station/day should > ship repairs from dailies + x% (for the expected ship power of your level)
nocturne lantern
@shell hemlock that too. Now most bases ate unraidable becouse most of people are poor.
Bases storage should be increased min 100x and output of generators by 10×

I was thinking that it would be cool to have an alliance tree, members would have to donate resources and materials to build it up, could have things that would help ships, combat, mining, stations, faster research... etc. Could cost a lot of rss, and build slow, but would be a differentiation between alliances that built different parts of the tree.

Add a pvp flag for mining ships. it can only be turned on/off at your base and you get a boost to mining speed while it is on. The pvp flag is automatically turned on if you are on a zero node for more than 30 seconds or if you are over the protected cargo limit or if your mining ship attacks another ship

How about in addition to attack defence health you add mining stat to every officer and tie it to the mining bonus of a ship to improve mining with all the extra officers below the bridge.

It's been said before, and I'll say it again. Either move the "repair instantly using lat", or add a confirmation. Spending 3-400 lat when a 30 lat 3 hour would fix instantly as well is ridiculous.
static copper
Always add a confirmation when spending lat.
- Push notification when your ship arrives somewhere. Also include a second sentence if it's a hostile place where you're about to be attacked.
- We need more push notifications in general, you want people to play the game as much as possible, so inform them when they can.
- Push option for private chats with a setting for new chats and a per-convo toggle.
- Push option for alliance chat.
- Push settings to toggle each type.
- New feature: launch a warning buoy at a place of choice which will alert you when any ships, any specific alliance ships or any specific player ships enter that buoy's surrounding. Should last x hours or days, whatever, maybe like shields.
- New feature: add fog-of-war to systems that are farther than x (low) warp away (hide ships and bases, maybe?). Add the ability to launch a probe to farther-away systems that gives you temporary view. I'm just toying with what kind of feature a probe could work.
- For a Star Trek game, STFC really misses trading. I've heard some concept of trading is on the to-do list, what is it?

I think the best next improvement would be an automatic return of mining ships after they are on a 0 node for more than 5 minutes firstly, then extent it to have you able to choose it to auto return when it gets to its protected cargo limit. The first would help clear nodes of all those low level 0 node hogs that nobody can clear.

@nocturne lantern im agsinst. It would prevent hiting overcargo miners.

I hate low players stuck on 0 nodes. Set a time limit. 5 min, 10 min, whatever the scopley gods decide. After that elapsed time, either you blow them up, return them to base and tuck them in for the night, or remove all guidelines so anyone can deal with them.
shell hemlock
A better option would be to despawn the node (which would knock off the miner) and to respawn it
Then you can hit overloads and you don't reward the lazy miners who want the game do it all for them
Suggestion: A few of the info cards don't show enough information when there are pre-reqs; ships, research & buildings
Specifically the rss needed for the item is missing - which in turn makes it a little difficult to plan in-game
Could the views on those cards be updated to include what rss is needed in addition to the pre-reqs

Hey I wanna hear some thoughts 💭 about prime officers. Every free to play player is probably pissed about it as It offer such a power growth but is only open for people who bought rare grade4 pack .To Rafine grade 4 rares you need 45lvl or something.

Can we broaden the items in the alliance shop? Shield and armada stuff is great but how about adding speed ups in there as well....commonly needed items should be available in alliance shop.

<@&509690795536941056> I suggest that you make more event boards that focus on completing as an alliance. Not an alliance leaderboard, just doing stuff together as an alliance.

I can only remember one time, a biomeneral collection event, that rewarded an alliance for coming together and completing a goal. We need more stuff like that.

@vocal sandal the reward was mainly officer cards. Officer XP was a subproduct and just a drop in the bucket.
A total of 60 officer cards vs 20k XP is not an officer XP event
lethal edge
@pastel peak really?I got around 4m officer exp from faction hunt 🤔
pastel peak
Not if you are lv 20
I surely did NOT receive 4 million XP
Only 20k and DID finish 1st on most and 2nd~3rd on others
@lethal edge

I am lvl 29
pastel peak
Like I said. It was not an XP event.
Rewards changed with your levelIt was a GET OFFICERS event with XP as a side dish @lethal edge
I'm talking about a 100% officer XP
With XP as THE MAIN DISH/REWARD

What if we had the option to set policies when mining etc for ship captains to follow.. ie if attacked beam some cargo into space for attacker to take and flee, or drop shields and allow attacker to take anything above protected cargo, or simply attempt to flee if on a zero node etc...
same boat or alternate option when attacking option to attack with no mercy destroy ship which since you blasted the ship to peices you may lose some cargo since your now scouring a debris field for said cargo. Or pirate attack disable shields and weapons and board or beam cargo that exceeds protected limits out, allowing you to take cargo while forcing ship to flee liberated of cargo but not destroyed, again chance of failure that could destroy ship etc...
Would make things more realistic, I mean the goal most of the time is to take cargo or force a miner off a zero node... 300k power warship attacking a 50k miner should be able to take cargo easy destroying it wouldn't be necessary unless commander deems so....
vocal sandal
@pastel peak was it only 20K XP for all milestones of the 3 events? That does sound a bit poor... at ops 30 it was 354K per event, and yes also uncommons, recruit tokens and faction credits... now I have 8M XP without any decent officers to spend it on...
@wind cradle

@pastel peak I'd think I went from 6m officer xp to 15m officer xp during Trek The Halls. Ops 32.
I'd think that counts as a decent officer xp event.

static hull
Probably mentioned by someone already, but here goes:
Ships take materials such as ore, gas, crystal to build. So, wouldn't it make sense that at least some of those mats would drop when the ship is killed?

My Big Idea (tm)(c)(pat pending)
Introduce a Borg Cube.
The cube would show up in a random system, and wipe everything... players and hostiles.
The cube would exist for 1 hour (or 2 or 3).
The cube would be hittable by all levels of payers. But, it would be so massively powerful that it would take essentially every player on server in order to kill it.
If successful in killing it, each player that took part would get a percentage of reward based on damage done.
If the cube is not killed, no one gets anything.
After the allotted time, the cube would move to a different random system, with full power.
(I understand that Borg may not officially be in the timeline, but Make It So.)

need a ferengi officer for latinium mining give him a latinium mining bonus& a protected cargo bonus

I like that idea about the ferengi officer

Has a bonus refinery been suggested?

Bonus refinery! @signal matrix

That’s a great idea!

We need the ability to know how long members are inactive. I’m not sure why this hasn’t been added yet

How about a mining officer that charges all repair costs to the attacker?
Oh, and Make Barot's officer ability work! rampant miner killing needs to be curbed big time!

I really think it is well overdue that Scopely improve the attack levels..
This is u reasonable pvp

Would like to have a entering in the battlelog if attacked on zero mine because now you get a warning via fp rule,but can never be sure if it whas realy empty. It would end countless discussions.

Here's another suggestion scopely should consider. 1025 uncommon ore per gun to upgrade. That's just the guns. Then the cargo bay, another 800, then the shield/armor another 1700. The stupid small amounts if you calculate it, for a single tier upgrade is basically if you have 6000 uncommon ore/crystal/gas needed, it will take you 260 refine cycles which is 130 days at 2 refine cycles per day as each refine cycle is only every 10 hours. Basically 3 and a half months for 1 tier. How is this beneficial to keeping players once they reach level 28 and up? I have spoken to quite a few players and many are considering leaving, in fact its roughly about 3 out of 5 players leaving each time i speak to players that are leaving as the point of the game is a little bit of combat, and growth and leveling, but many leave or just don't bother with the game any long when they start reaching level 28 and upwards as the refine amounts they get are way too low to make a dent in the gigantic amounts required to upgrade one module, never mind the enormous amounts needed to upgrade one entire tier which takes 4 months nearly and that just increases exponentially as well, the next tier above that takes 6 months, then 10 months. Its absolutely ludicrous.
umbral wyvern
I agree completely, and its not only at the higher lvls, but i 'm sure its done on purpose so you buy everything. You will see then that your ship costs hundreds of euro's. Its all about the money with scopely. You get only tonnes of useless parts, rewards and so on
ionic ermine
lol, @umbral wyvern those calculations were based on gettign 23 uncommon refined items per cycle, most of the time ,its 7, 14, 21, 2, or 4.... smaller amounts lengthen and increase the time frames it would take then as well.
agreed though, i believe they do it deliberately and its not hundreds, i've spoken to many who get annoyed and then spend thousands of euros on it. Wasted money on digital items that can be given in game and the game properly rebalanced. But i believe that the STFC game is kept off balance purposefully.
shell hemlock
Don't forget you do get mats also from the personal events: research, station, etc
It's not enough - at least at my lvl (I believe its lvl based rewards) but its something
and if anything - its more predictable than the refinery
remote vault
Great that there is more content and missions, but apart from the initial notification there is no way of knowing where the new missions are. How about a third galaxy view. System names; rss; incomplete/not yet started mission location? When I first started I went through every single system to find missions. Would be good to have a toggle so you could see where available missions started. Cheers
midnight lily
<@&509690795536941056> How about allowing us to get more than one peace shield at a time in the Alliance Shop? If someone wants to pick up 10 4Hr shields (or what ever length shield) there is a WHOLE LOT of button clicking (Scroll scroll scroll, view, wait to load...., purchase, wait to load......, confirm, wait to load..... yea there's a whole 1 shield. Scroll scroll scroll, view, wait to load...., purchase, wait to load......, confirm, wait to load..... yea another 1 shield, etc....) Would be nice to have the option to purchase 1, 3, 10. or 1, 5, 10 or something similar. You have it as options for almost everything else in game. Why not the Alliance Store items?
wanton raven
The ships screen should have 2 tabs - shipyard( or construction or build) and hangar (or owned). You should be able to look at your own ships with no officer power included anytime without bringing a ship back to the dock and swap out ships.
shell hemlock
good idea
honest swift
We need a shuttle ship so we can transport Trit, par, And dili to other alliance members. The shuttle can only transport from within the same system so you would have to relocate bases in the same system. And we need missions where we need to transport Officer from our ships to complete mission, all the while our ship is vulnerable to attack from other alliances. And based on the officers we send will determine if we’re successful or not. I sent this request to Scopely last month and received a very favorable response
The game needs to evolve so far its a revolving door. Only more powerful

Would be good to know what your protected station rss limit is without having to work it out.

@remote vault I like that idea....
[CAN] WedgeRogueLeaderYesterday at 11:22 AM
Suggestion/ Idea: I'm sure I'm not the first to suggest this but. <@&509690795536941056> Could we get a spot where we can see for sure what our current protect limits are in our bases? my understanding is that the The Vault Details only show base protected but do not reflect actual protected as you can do research etc to increase the base. TBH honest I don't have the college degree in advanced astrophysics needed to figure out all of the formulas Scopely uses to calculate how much the researches increase the limits. It would be nice to have a menu that says "Here is what your current protected limits are in your base" Period. Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy. Just a thought.
remote vault
@midnight lily Yep. You need to go through the research and work it out. Pain in the ar5e. You’re bang on mate. No reason the vault details can’t be updated to show at the top what the current level is. Couldn’t care less what the bonus is for L45. 😆
@honest swift I like the idea of a trade centre. It’s not very alliance focused and there is no way of helping after someones base is emptied or helping smaller alliance members
midnight lily
@remote vault I'm sure Scopely has done all the math and junk. Just tell me "If you (a 2.3 Mil power lvl 26 in my case), get raided by a who know's how big lvl 40 (cuz with the current splits that CAN happen), how much stuff will I have left.
remote vault
Cuz you’re spot on.

@midnight lily has some great ideas, oh great one
midnight lily
Hey @cinder walrus . Reidy and I were talking about how AMAZING it would we could see what our current base protected limits are without needing an advanced degree in astrophysics to do the base + research+ whatever calculations. That and how nice it would be to be able to purchase more than 1 peace shield at a time in the Alliance Store.
remote vault
And a trade centre to be more alliance-y

@midnight lily Devs do read this discord
So you dont need to tag someone when you make a suggestion each time
Plus you arent first suggesting these many players did and lets hope they heard it

Good to know. Thanks BatMan. I certainly don't want to clutter up anything. I'm sure they are busy. Also agree that I can't be the first to suggest but wanted to add my name to the petition. 😉

Wellp Here's to hoping they hear us. Now back to work and in-game play. Hopefully a lvl 40 didn't come turn my base into the Death Star. LOL
