[crude phoenix]

i honestly cant say it is.. we are here because we invested too much time or money already

[civic geyser]

Think a lot of people stay because of the player base not the actual game

[thorn plinth]

@warm glade let us know how it goes with candy crush!

[crude phoenix]

wouldnt recommend it to a friend either. just like a toxic workplace

[warm glade]

Everything is about, paying Scopely!
Primes and crappy ticket events!

[heavy ermine]

Player base of gluttons for punishment ftw

[thorn plinth]

I'm raiding a base atm. Lol not the stuff you mentioned lol

[merry lion]

I may have missed something, so today's intespecies illnesses SMS event relies totally on random pull from the samples?

I collected critters but refinery is gone

[heavy ermine]

Yes unless you saved some "refines" from the event store

[hot canyon]

They could do one a day and maybe the armadas would be semi useful

[warm glade]

Candy crush! Wow…I bet if I download it…I wouldn’t to keep purchasing things to play in events!

[dense prawn]

@terse jackal Is this for Jan 2025?

[merry lion]

Surely we were supposed to have thought about saving the refines instead of thinking the refinery would refresh and repeat itself lol

[terse jackal]

This should already be fixed! If you clear loc in the settings you should see the new date

[split quarry]

You get technically 7 a week/ acc 50, 7 seat armadas get a friend group and there you go

[thorn plinth]

@warm glade the extra little pig full of gold helps some once you get higher up!

[north torrent]

I dI dont see why not sometimes some gambling-events like this can not be part of the concept - as long as they are additional and its possible to participate for free too. you can not loose something - just to win or not doing that.

[split quarry]

Bigger issue is getting the whales Into their own tank 😢

[dense prawn]

That worked. Thank you

[split quarry]

@terse jackal morning 👋 - will we be getting an updated event calendar for the remainder of the arc?

[warm glade]

I don’t mind purchasing here or there. I get it, it’s a business. But, holy 💩 scopely has lost touch with reality.

[crude phoenix]

rest of the arc should be as planned if i heard eco right

[split quarry]

Wow… that’s a light on week then 😅

[terse jackal]

The IGN in-game should already be updated!

Just make sure you clear loc and restart to ensure you're seeing it

That doesn't count the interim obviously

[fleet depot]

grinding rep now

damn hard

[warm glade]

Oh boy! One week left in the arc…I sure hope they can plan that far out.

[hollow tiger]

In the middle of the territory pass that doesn't end for 4 weeks?

[split quarry]

So only Stun and Kill? Not seeing anything new?

[terse jackal]

Let me verify it's updated, but I was told it was

[split quarry]

Plenty of TC to get those final points scored… 😅🤣

[fleet depot]

well not hard, but rather just tedius asf

[hollow tiger]

My point is let's reset territory to reset it 3 weeks later?

[crude phoenix]

that would be a bit harsh

[split quarry]

Meh. They should reset it monthly imho. But yes I get what you mean. They delayed our merge 3 weeks for the same reason

[crude phoenix]

territory settles down after about 3 weeks, thats a bit short

[bleak anchor]

@terse jackal can you confirm the date for the server mergers?

[fleet depot]

is there any way to fast track ops level without skipping on research

[split quarry]

Spend

[warm glade]

💵💵💵

[hollow tiger]

According to the dates listed, territory pass ends in 28 days but my server merges next week?

[fleet depot]

I've been at ops 25 for a month now

still haven't finished the research

[thorn plinth]

Roll on! Lol

[crude phoenix]

that must be an error then

or they really want to screw u over

[split quarry]

True, server dependant though. But more oomf be good 😂

[warm glade]

Don’t wait on the research, you’ll never finish it.

[toxic sand]

@terse jackal just a small class of maths: need 5000 rare directives to open a rare xindi armada. Every uc chest gives 200, every uc cost 3,25M credits. One started uc gives me about 420k credits. AND we can only start 1 uc per week. Have you guys calculated how many months i need to do a rare? 8 weeks per uc chest, and 50 chest. Thats aprox 400 weeks, a bit less than 8 years

[crude phoenix]

yeah spend. or ops hunt and be weak and have paper ships 😉

[split quarry]

Have you counted the other armadas you join with alliance mates? (Based on 7 a week if you have a friend group)

Just curious - don’t shoot the question

[crude phoenix]

they think u have a lot of g5 players in your alliance that also run em so u get from joinung them

[fleet depot]

so, speedups are a must on researches

[crude phoenix]

unless the ppl that are able to run em are simply not there in great number.

[split quarry]

That’s a player issue to an extent. If you’re in an alliance and are only 3 g5 folks,
Then things will be harder?

[silver parcel]

The issue was raised, not that it means we'll see any change about it, but they're aware

[crude phoenix]

even if there is more. not everyone is avaiable 24/7 . if too small a g5 player u cannot solo the unc ones (as we can with g5 and expansion cubes for more loot gain)

[toxic sand]

Unless you get second chest i get about 15-20k per armada. Discount half year 😂

[terse jackal]

Yeah I'm going to be following up on all the math things

[toxic sand]

Thk

[terse jackal]

❤️

As long as it doesn't involve daylight savings time

I should be good

[fair fable]

We can’t even get a simple loot exo fixed. What makes you all think they actually take time to do simple math on a brand new mechanic? We all know it’s quantity not quality and just pumping crap out every month we will soon forget about things that are broke and focus on the newest things that are broke.

[crude phoenix]

good. when can we expect a reply on this ? :p

[terse jackal]

No eta at this point since they literally just came out today lol

[faint vessel]

https://tenor.com/view/steve-kornacki-msnbc-calculator-calculating-numbers-gif-19123116

[toxic sand]

My point is that developers should have tested that

[crude phoenix]

but u said u were gonna follow up on things. so a week.. a months.. when are u planning on dojng what u say u are doing ?

[hot canyon]

The math is terrible. A few years of regular playing to get a single rare armada call should never have been implemented

[crude phoenix]

also these things are screenshotted again ;p so it will be a returning question if we never hear back on this

[dusky cove]

1 armada a week? I get 250 dirs and I need 1k for a launch so one armada per 4 weeks

[crude phoenix]

higher iops get 1k directives a week. lower players couldnt even start one f2p this month

[zenith coyote]

It's designed to help move the mid 50s to g6 hell.

[crude phoenix]

by help u mean force ;p

[hot canyon]

To help the team. Running 6 armadas with 1 call myself at 54 nets around 800k loot. My team can run 6 per week in theory so, 3.2 million loot, 1 pull uncommon pull. Need 25 uncommon pulls to get 1 rare call. So 2 years on simple math before I can even try for a single rare armada.

[dusky cove]

nope, you forgot that you'll move up in ops so the pull chests will change

[civic geyser]

The difference between a single chest for ops 56 and a single chest for ops 57 in the uncommon is 10m credits

[crude phoenix]

also need to get bigger ships after that.. because warp range ;0

[civic geyser]

Gonna take me 250 weeks to get a rare

[crude phoenix]

so either they give more directives or lower pulls. thinking lower pulls since theres only one system per size armada wich will lead to a line forming ;p

[hot canyon]

Unless things drop by a factor of 10, it still is bad

[civic geyser]

Nobody will bother with them, they were supposed to eliminate armada grinds yet it’s still way quicker for me to take an hour out of my day to get double what those rubbish chests pay

[dusky cove]

eh it's just true, odds are good you'll change tier before your second rare so the cost skyrockets

[crude phoenix]

at this rate ppl will only run em for events and save em up in the meanwhile. content engagement will be dead on arrival

[hot canyon]

It's the new M-O. Granted now if they do change it, I will feel ripped off my beta testing for them today

[civic geyser]

Should just pull the armadas, release them later on down the line when they’ve figured out how to cater to 99% of the game

[robust lotus]

@devs: 6 ships atm camping in Aethera Nova Space at our server and waiting for every f kn 41 hostile spawn and you can not leave because its a token system. this is 💩 designed and a totally d u mb wasting of players time!

[crude phoenix]

dont thing that is the hole that it goes into

[split quarry]

I get it. G5 armadas are way too easy though, so probably a bad comparison? (Sorry for delayed reply was doing school drop off 🥱)

[inner aurora]

I warned my alliance to only refine two each day because I saw this coming, but most didn't listen.

[crude phoenix]

the building and research power creep caught up to g5 armadas before they were even released. only thing holding my boys back from running the last bits is warp range .. (titan cerritos + defiant buffs are just too good ) . :d

[split quarry]

Agreed. Me and a mate duo up to the 59’s just a little warp shy of the final @epics 😅

G5 armadas just need difficulty increased 5-10 fold 😂

[split quarry]

We did the same for our alliance

[lean fjord]

Anyone else not have the new directives in exborg store even after update?

[void panther]

Do you have to be a certain ops lvl to see the new prime armada command in the store?

[crude phoenix]

not sure all ops levels get em ?

[twilit lintel]

@thorn plinth do you remember what xinda said about my second ship i added yuki i just forgot wut other two he said to strip the yellow ship shields so the strong ship can hit it

[lean fjord]

@crude phoenix I'm ops 46

[pine phoenix]

I seriously love this new added content today, never spend so less time in game, thx for setting me free

[sweet turret]

What happened to not doing a server merge during an active territory season?

[dapper scaffold]

@terse jackal why is the battle pass gone from the store?

[nimble cobalt]

Getting to the point when login that i cant be bother waste 10 minute going threw all tabs and sub menus to claim stuff then refine stuff

[lean fjord]

Anyone know the ops level that xindi armadas directives appear in exborg store?

[solid abyss]

Scopley needs to increase spawning rate for 51+ xindi armada station

[crude phoenix]

people actually have directives to run that many ?

[turbid siren]

It’s now just funny to see “i will follow up on xyz” “still checking and will get back soon” “should have kept xyz in mind” “i will do better next time” literally being sent here EVERYDAY !!!
When will it ever get better? You guys keep making the same mistakes again and again. And then you give the least bit of communication and the community goes crazy like “woah woah wow great communication this month”
literally the basic standard of communication between players and company, and you guys fail to even keep that standard.

[split storm]

@terse jackal Wheres my new primes?!

i only have this one

wheres my others!"

[bleak ice]

Can anyone tell me if 90->91 means 90 is merging WITH 91 or does it mean INTO 91??

[split storm]

90 merging into 91 means you will become 91

[thorn plinth]

Man lucky ducks lol

[bleak ice]

tyvm

[sterile mountain]

On the plus side: Love the reduced spawn times on the FKRs. Love the sudden availability of faction ship cloaks after two years' waiting.

On the down site: Why did that require this horrible money grab for the rest of it? Nearly every event is Heroic or should be labelled as such. Every regurgitated feature in this patch requires money at this point.

[iron steeple]

Can someone help me understand why my ship goes boom in round 94, when I flat out win?

[split storm]

read its ability

[scenic field]

It is because of Leslie's Captain Maneuver.

[sterile mountain]

Leslie's hull boost lasts only as long as the battle. It's removed when the battle ends.

No, they stopped doing those.

Now you get a little chest and can't mine for six weeks.

[scenic field]

Recent merges include a 7 day daily claim of special quantum loot for brief event store. No special events.

[split quarry]

Such fun eh

😂

[sterile mountain]

Thrilling.

[faint vessel]

oooh blimey - my bad? such great communication from the overlords. Strange wasnt even an article about it on the helpshift game portal either

[scenic field]

This is communicated to servers being merged when they are to be merged.

[sinful nest]

Anyone else not see the prime armada control in the store? I'm ops 49 btw, feel like it should be there

[sterile mountain]

Why bother?

[split storm]

i see it, but i dont see the other one

[iron steeple]

https://tenor.com/view/mystery-gif-6112558

So the enemy goes boom, and the ship catches up to the damage it took, because Leslie basically doesn't exist afterwards? This is a job for...

[sinful nest]

@sterile mountain meh true, was just stating that I don't see it, lol

[tidal girder]

Are your servers dead. Hardly anybody running waves and sms going on. Need more mergers

[split quarry]

Prime armada control is 2 years too late & not required now with speedups

[fleet depot]

Is there anyone who skipped 28 and 32 ships and used Vidar as primary ship until 34

Need some tips

[faint vessel]

theres nowt interesting to do in game

[void panther]

I cannot see the new primes also, updated and I'm ops 44

[sterile mountain]

It appears missing for me as well (ops 59)

Oh well

[dull mason]

https://tenor.com/view/basement-dweller-grind-skitzzo-moon-gif-23314051

[fleet depot]

is it an actual thing

[fringe anchor]

This got deleted??

[dull mason]

Do you mean Vi'dar or Talios ??

[fleet depot]

the former

Talios cannot be built before ops 35

at which point one would already have a G3 epic

[little violet]

Xindi madas.. Where?

[silver parcel]

53 onward

[dull mason]

I have the Talios and will soon get the Franklin -A
And will also get Voyager and Enterprise

[twilit lintel]

there you go i've been waiting for you

my second ship i added yuki i just forgot wut other two he said to strip the yellow ship shields so the strong ship can hit it

[little violet]

They are in the regular xindi zones?

[silver parcel]

yes

[dull mason]

My Voyager will be delayed by a day due to the Horrible Maintenance Time

[little violet]

Do they have the same ignore shield crap

[twilit lintel]

idk yet lol

[dull mason]

My old saying is
Shield and stuff Them
LoL 😆🤣

[little violet]

I think you did Yuki zhou and mirek, but that was because the ship was romulan

[fleet depot]

ik G3 rare and G4 epic are skip, but are there any other levels which are skippable due to having special ships

[twilit lintel]

ah yes

[fleet depot]

it's a new thing I heard, that Vidar is used as primary ship until G3 epic

no 28s, no 32s

is that really viable

[silver parcel]

it'll hurt

[dull mason]

Not strong enough for L42's ish

[quasi ember]

brand new event, you'd think scopely would of warned us, like one month they are releasing new events a week early with a count down timer, and next month they spring a new event out of no where and let everyone waste their creature pulls in the first day, making the rest of the event unable to complete. smh

[little violet]

The vidar is a terrible ship for anything other than borg

The firing patterns not good

[turbid siren]

What

[fleet depot]

I did check the firing pattern, practically no damage until round 3

[twilit lintel]

is this gonna show up everytime i exit stuff in the game

[quasi ember]

borg, opc and specific pvp events that call for the vidar.

[dull mason]

Good for loot /OPC

[fleet depot]

Bortas and Saladin have all weapons fire on round 1

Vidar basically doesn't do anything until round 3

[little violet]

https://tenor.com/view/ok-lil-jon-okay-shouts-gif-15192264

[scenic field]

They always use such unflattering angles of my hologram!!

[dull mason]

One is Data the other is B4
LoL 🤣🤣

[split quarry]

It’s a pivotal addition to the game of course it will 🤭

[bitter temple]

boomers will discover the treasure trove of stfc videos out there

[fringe anchor]

https://tenor.com/view/i-quit-that-game-that-game-i-quit-quitter-i-leave-that-game-behind-gif-14779926

[fleet depot]

is Talios a replacement for any standard faction warships

[bitter temple]

Tally can help bridge the gap, but faction ships benefit from all your researches. Tally does not.

[little violet]

https://tenor.com/view/die-laughing-funny-kids-dies-gif-24902870

[fleet depot]

so basically a bad idea unless I rushed ops without researches, which is another bad idea

[little violet]

I push ops and all the time

[twilit lintel]

hmm idk if i should use vidar as my shield strip

[fleet depot]

unrelated Borg question, if I will kill the probe on round 3 in 25, 26 and 27 systems, should I go hitting 27 or 26

[little violet]

If you have a better ship then no

[fleet depot]

shield strip?

[twilit lintel]

i have borg

[fleet depot]

oh

[little violet]

Mirek is not a for sure 3rd

[twilit lintel]

ah ok

[little violet]

Decius would be better or char

[fleet depot]

so it's for double tapping yellows?

[twilit lintel]

dont have char so dec will have to do lol

[fleet depot]

hmm, seems shooting level 27 probes is giving me higher yield

they die on round 3 anyways

[twilit lintel]

probes?

[fleet depot]

Borg

[twilit lintel]

yes i didnt see it my bad

[fleet depot]

I have a 315k Vidar

[twilit lintel]

i need my glasses on hold on

[graceful sage]

How do these refine directive amounts add up. So I’m ops 54. The xindi uncommon gives 200 rare directives for a single pull. Cooldown 3 days. I think it’s going to be hard to maintain consistent refines with the current costs.
A rare armada takes 5000 rare directives. So if I can get 200 every 3 days, it will take me 75 days to even start one rare xindi armada

This seems off?

[little violet]

Well Mirek is only an anti faction officer They can be replaced buy anyone really

[twilit lintel]

nicee

[sterile parcel]

The xindi armada chests are going to take a fair few armadas to open.

[fleet depot]

pretty sure the proper prefix for a Romulan ship is PWB not IRW

[silver parcel]

They were IRW in next generation, PWB in deep space nine

[foggy lark]

Pocket dials are fun... listening to someone else's life...

[silver parcel]

Both are correct

[fleet depot]

oh

[scenic field]

My calculations suggest it is a mere 25 weeks to get 1 rare armada worth of directives.

[sterile parcel]

Then about 20 armadas to@open a chest ?

[mild trout]

imagine dying on it

[foggy lark]

Sounds like awkward inexperienced robots going at it...

[dusky cove]

I wonder if we'll see event store changes next week

[twilit lintel]

Sweet free lat

and here i am with 700 lat lol

[little violet]

First mega chest 😄

5 day cool down 🤣

[twilit lintel]

ohh i need dat lol

where you get mega chest

[silver parcel]

ex borg store

[twilit lintel]

so op 35 lol

why cant all my missions be like this lol

[little violet]

You're kidding me with this right....

3.2m really?

The madas cost 1k to start...

[fleet depot]

Saladin users, how do you even get the crystals to play the game

[timber valve]

I mean, it's so bad, I'd rather grind the hostiles for 3 artifact shards a day 😂

[little violet]

what the 53 start chest look like?

[golden cliff]

You've already got 100k loot, just do more armadas

[fleet depot]

Like, nowadays there’s Vidar which takes crystals concurrently

[little violet]

Vidar is super cheap material wise

Charged probes are the paywall for that ship

[little violet]

I did one mada...

[bitter temple]

vidar pays for itself in spades later with the tally upgrade and daily faction credits

and all the opc you pirate

[sterile parcel]

Someone broke the interns calculator…… again

[golden cliff]

30 more to go, chop chop

[little violet]

WE barely survived... Now I see how to beat them... Idk if it will be easier, but should be better than the crews we were using

I wonder if the Nx01 work on the madas

[silver parcel]

doubtful

[twilit lintel]

try lol

[little violet]

Someone else use their directives and let me know 😄

[twilit lintel]

which research i need top do for my ship to get stronger sally

[little violet]

Crit damage and anything interceptor based really

[twilit lintel]

is that in galaxy?

[ancient wadi]

It is funny the whole arc was about how special the NX-01 was for its ability to fight xindi. yet it only useful for one small section

[little violet]

combat and I think galaxy

You're kidding me right... Charging for something that used to be free... Scopely... You are getting very ridiculous...

[pure yew]

expect next arc to be called important and its a ship specifically for 1 mission chain and the rest is other content with armada version requires cloak and titan buff to beat

[fleet depot]

Wait apparently Enterprise NX-01 only works on aquatic

The other Xindi aliens don’t care

[pure yew]

and its tickets that you use to trade for credits that turn into directives that only work if you have a prime

[fleet depot]

[pure yew]

you didnt know?

lol

[fleet depot]

I didn’t read the description clearly

Not that it matters since I’m ops 25 and don’t have the ship

[pure yew]

yah ill have it in maybe 180 days

if i dont forget to open the game while having fun playing good games

specially with helldivers 2 new stuff might be tough

and guess what its free

😱

[iron steeple]

[fleet depot]

Where are the level 28 Borg probes

[silver parcel]

[little violet]

Massive difference with the right crew 😄

[dull mason]

What did I say it's a Joke 🤦🏼‍♂️

[twilit lintel]

nooo more maintenance

[fleet depot]

Bortas and Saladin, which one better for cracking stations

[little violet]

Saladin

[fleet depot]

Thx

[little violet]

Bortas is duu duu

[twilit lintel]

how do i get this again without payin fo it

[warm pivot]

daily turn in of green armadachest

[twilit lintel]

cough..

[timid current]

is it correct that the xindi uncommon tradein at ops 57 is 12.8mil credits for one chest when the rare 1 chest is only 320k?

that seems sus

[dull mason]

There Simply shouldn't be event's on Maintenance Tuesday,
Other games I know don't have event's on downtime 🙅🏼‍♂️ ..!

All this lot say " should plan ahead"
How when it's guaranteed to be Laggy and bugging...🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️

And where's our compensation Chests ❔❔

[little violet]

I hear the old song lyrics inmy head can't stop loving you when looking at this arc.. & this... And change the Can't stop reaching for your wallet.....

♫ Can't fight this feeling anymore♫

[timid current]

i mean, do they just hate us?

[little violet]

They love our money

[timid current]

but 12.8million credits for a 1 chest trade in???

[little violet]

Cause this sir is ridiculous... Maybe if one mada cost 100.. But nah... 1k a week

[timid current]

it would take me 36 lvl 53 armadas to do one chest

[fleet depot]

Testing against level 28 Borg probes now

[timid current]

sorry 39

i had already done 3 of them

[timid current]

im ops 57

[little violet]

Im 56

[timid current]

this has to be wrong though

[tepid lotus]

So 3.2M to 12.8M for going up one ops level?

[eternal shuttle]

After 4 armadas. They can go jump off a cliff.

[little violet]

Your minimum is 12m? 👀

[timid current]

yep

one sec

[little violet]

Wow

[vapid solstice]

Well, I’ll just stay ops 46 😂

[tepid lotus]

lvl 56 uncommon armadas are around 3M cargo for the group, and I don't know if you can afford to bring the loot officers for it.

[timid current]

but rares seem more reasonable

[little violet]

These 3 arc smells like someone had a can a fart spray and walked passed you and you smell rotten eggs.. Then realize they didn't actually spray...

[fleet depot]

@heady moon Would Star Trek fleet Command have Star wars a new Hope Part 1 on May The Fourth?

[acoustic wren]

no

[little violet]

They can barely afford one License you expect them to cross to the dark side too .. That would be dumb and cause a lot of nerd rage

[timid current]

can the devs speak on this?

[little violet]

https://tenor.com/view/wall-gif-20427825

[timid current]

why such a wide canyon difference between the trade requirements

[waxen ledge]

it takes roughly 25 unc chests to start 1 rare... so go figure

[little violet]

You know they don't care cause this arc shows it all about the $$$

[fleet depot]

Holy, level 29 Borg fires only a single shot in the first three rounds

[little violet]

They've not fine tuned nothing and left it absolutely ridiculous

[twilit lintel]

they do care

care for the whales

https://tenor.com/view/amc-gorillaz-homer-credit-card-simpsons-gif-875131904422118566

[eternal shuttle]

Don’t worry, I’m sure they will have another prime to lower the cooldown on getting the armada directives…..just another $99.

[timid current]

i think even a whale would scoff at this

[dry valve]

Yes this is what love looks like when you spend thousands 🥶

[fleet depot]

One pull per five days

But I get a beetle every day

[twilit lintel]

imma but to lose this battle i just know it

[heady moon]

You mean show A New Hope here?

[twilit lintel]

but always gotta take a risk

[timid current]

the xindi armada thing seems like a trial period situation. here is one to see if you like it, just $360 for a full chest trade in!

[twilit lintel]

good movie

https://tenor.com/view/day-long-remembered-darth-vader-grand-moff-tarkin-tarkin-vader-gif-16214689

[eternal shuttle]

More like this arc and the new armada cooldown for directives is No Hope.

[heady moon]

Its pretty good. But Rogue One might be my favorite. Really close with Empire.

[dry valve]

If they made the chest that amazing, with no cool off, we would all be buying more directives like crazy 🤣

[heady moon]

No no no. I believe its NEW Hope.

[waxen ledge]

need to take a 0 out of the cost of the xindi armada chests.

[eternal shuttle]

Not at all. Y’all smoking the good stuff.

[thorn plinth]

A new hope

[late elk]

https://tenor.com/view/uh-um-hm-adam-workaholics-gif-5161074

[heady moon]

I've been passing this exact feedback to the team today.

[twilit lintel]

well i am hitting a vape rn lol

[waxen ledge]

Appreciate you ❤️

[fleet depot]

12k from level 28 probes

11k from level 27

[coarse relic]

I have a cbd vape

[twilit lintel]

lvl 28 probes my vidar 60k

[fleet depot]

One day

One day

[twilit lintel]

me also

[thorn minnow]

Yes.

[coarse relic]

Oh nice

[heady moon]

Hm.🤔 I can ask... but thinking it might be tricky. Dunno if Disney will let us...

[twilit lintel]

only cuz i ran out of my normal medication cough

[little violet]

Not very good returns to the credits needed

[little violet]

They will if you pay their ridiculous licensing fees lol

[coarse relic]

I actually don't take meds I only do mmj to assist in a time of need

[dry valve]

It’s fine your just steal your alliance m8s loot, bringing people together through play 🥂

[heady moon]

https://tenor.com/view/the-goon-dodgeball-personal-check-check-money-gif-14921219

[little violet]

As long as it cashes 😛

[twilit lintel]

thats what im talkin bout maryj

[heady moon]

Dang it!

There's always a catch!

[coarse relic]

Hell yeah dude

[twilit lintel]

legal here

[coarse relic]

Same

[little violet]

Ent E data does not work on madas

[twilit lintel]

it seems it did good on dat one lol

but tell me wut does

plz

[silver parcel]

kirk spock khan will suit you better

[dry valve]

Khan if got, that a decent one early unlock

Snap

[little violet]

Kirk spock works well for shield regen Something that boost crit chance like Khan, or burning would do good

[twilit lintel]

only 2 rare direvtives wow lol

[twilit lintel]

nero?

[fleet depot]

320k Vidar with PMT vs level 29 Borg

Can I kill in three rounds

Lemme test

[little violet]

Yeah nero is good

[twilit lintel]

ok

[little violet]

Crit chance is better, but nero will still help

[vagrant meadow]

How do I leave an Alliance?

[little violet]

Probably make him cap instead of Kirk

[twilit lintel]

no khan

[little violet]

Might as well get the extra damage with shield regen

[fleet depot]

Hmm there’s only one level 29 system

[vagrant meadow]

Nevermind. Found it.

[little violet]

53's are the highest Xindi uncommon this is sad days

[fleet depot]

👀

[little violet]

Yeah that should work well

[twilit lintel]

ok

[little violet]

Or kirk spock Kerla

Nero burning will help tho burning the hull away

[twilit lintel]

imma try this first

[jaunty wren]

Formation armadas don’t count right

[little violet]

Think it is FKR so no

[twilit lintel]

i really need to do that

[jaunty wren]

Cards count as well right?

[little violet]

Maybe all them do... Does not say FKR so possibly

Solo should work too

[silver parcel]

no

regular directives only, like the name says

[little violet]

@heady moon Tell the devs I said thanks for make it the mada event 5 days. I was looking earlier and thinking it is dumb during the week, but the extended time will help

[heady moon]

I don't think this is sarcastic... so I will pass it on?

[round flower]

Please tell me we can disable the video button? Why add this?

[little violet]

Was a serious statement 😛

No sarcasm on this one

[shy hamlet]

for sure the extra time helps, especially with the number I'm going to run

[silver parcel]

I'm going to spend exactly 0

[shy hamlet]

normally they're just two days which is rough

[little violet]

I don't wanna talk about the number lol

[heady moon]

Copy that!

[silver parcel]

on the armada event

[shell marsh]

Buy packs 🤪

[silver parcel]

But now we know why the tickets didn't have currency, so they can Kobayashi Maru an armada event.

[little violet]

I am probably not going to do it either simply because the store is meh to me this time.. Until they bring out actually useful things like... Forbidden tech, Disco skin.... Feesha Glaas... Things that people want and were able to earn before through event store... Now they are not putting them out.... I am not that interested in the event store...

But it is nice for the people who will do those madas

[dull mason]

All Armadas should work because a small alliance might have enough uncommon one's to get better results than a Larger one

[little violet]

Scopely to be honest does not even care about small alliances. These type of event show this

They want you in the game and either spending or leeching off those who do spend

I have to say I hate leeching so these events are not fun for me..

[stark fjord]

does kirk/spock/khan work with tier 2 voyager for level 41 silent hostile for extra hull health

[silver parcel]

silent would laugh at that combo

and a tier 2 voyager isn't going to scratch the 41 silents

[little violet]

I am still mad about this @heady moon And not project anger at anyone in particular except the higher ups make the decisions.. 2 years ago.. I could run as many armadas as I had credits with no limits. Now we have to buy a prime to get 2 or more.... Not cool

[hybrid vector]

Severus Decius and charvanek is the only crew I can get to work. I have a kelvin though. I got two hostile last time.

[stark fjord]

kirk adds extra hull health so some combination of officers will work

my strongest ship is the defiant

[silver parcel]

which is also not going to help with the silents

[dull mason]

Try a 29 , and when you are Auto Hunt/collecting data adds storage

[stark fjord]

I can hit a ship 8 time I have that many tokens 😝

[little violet]

The direction of this game is getting depressing

[late elk]

u cud run multiple armadas at the same time 2 years ago?

[heady moon]

Yeah... I get that.

[hybrid vector]

Who else is singing Chef’s song “simultaneous loving”?

[little violet]

This arc has been bad

[twilit lintel]

no but i have his other song playing Chocolate

[hybrid vector]

In fairness to scopely, they upheld their goal of us doing less in the game. I am doing way way less this arc.

Like today, mine iso and call it a day.

[dull mason]

I hit 33's LoL 😆

[little violet]

I could make a joke that if you are in the game less you can't complain about the bugs... But this is counter productive to their needs so something got to give..

[little violet]

Well the saladin doesn't have the hull for a sustained battle you have to hit it hard and go

[dull mason]

Gold If You find a damaged one

[fleet depot]

are there any Vidar events
there's Discovery event every week

[little violet]

Saladin is more of a puncher with a glass chin

[twilit lintel]

yeah but i cant let it slide i'm going back in i always get the job done

[fleet depot]

shoot unknown aliens with Disco and get stuff in refinery

[little violet]

Was close tho

Do you have leslie?

[twilit lintel]

leslie?

[little violet]

I know that is a long shot, but he is a solo mada legend

[twilit lintel]

what refinery?

i'm op 32

[dull mason]

He's not available to him, sadly

[tepid lotus]

There used to be a borg event every few months for the vidar. That's pretty much transitioned to the talios, but I think there's still something in there for people too low to get a talios.

[twilit lintel]

i'll check

[dull mason]

Just jump a few time's then done for the week

[dull mason]

I have him

[little violet]

He is worth it after you get your first G3 epic

[twilit lintel]

that will prob be the voy

[little violet]

Going to hurt tho faction credit wise cause yet again something that is not easy to get free to play

[snow idol]

If you have it enabled, summoning 1 ship completes it in one go.

[twilit lintel]

im closer to that then enterprise

[dull mason]

Cool , I'll get that research done next

[fleet depot]

gonna test Borg 29s, wish me luck

[little violet]

Ent is easy to get if... You can cash in fed messages daily and do the mining hostile goals for feds

Also cash fed credit in vidar refinery

[snow idol]

5(captain) 7 and 9 good crew for hitting borg

[fleet depot]

Don’t have any of them

Which is why I’m running PMT

[karmic wave]

Talk about a SUPER slow drip if you decide to sit on 5k 🤣

[snow idol]

Pike moreau chen

[dull mason]

I use PMC or ent-pic Riker

[fleet depot]

Borg 29 don’t fire any energy weapons until round 4

[snow idol]

Tlann is for interceptors

[fleet depot]

My intent is kill it on round 3 which means I take a single hit from a kinetic weapon

Chen won’t do anything

[fleet depot]

I had to check the firing pattern

[little violet]

and lvl 29 borg

[late elk]

these armadas make it even more important to be 56+

imo

[dull mason]

I'm so bored, of the event's I have a 24hr shield on

[fleet depot]

Alr, heading into the system now

[karmic wave]

seems like it

[late elk]

rip to everyone recently who recommended getting a 50 epic

🤣

[sterile sonnet]

Anyone know answers to Medcial question event today?

[fleet depot]

It works, I kill them on round 3

[flint ruin]

Jeez…who was giving that advice?

[late elk]

rev 🤦‍♂️

[fleet depot]

Wasn’t G4 epic obsolete many years ago

[karmic wave]

Until they change the amount of currency you get from the Xindi madas or reduce the wait between claiming the 250 or 1k UC directives, these new madas will be pointless.

[shy hamlet]

how much time do you want to spend between ops 50 and 52, and how many faction credits do you have to burn?

[frank loom]

I’m still considering it. I’ve been playing since the beginning and am ops46 now, so will be a while to 50 even and I might not go any higher then 50 anyway. Would be a long time to 53 even if I did keep going up.

[shy hamlet]

if the answer is an incredibly long time and "a metric ton" then hey it might be right for you, but generally those aren't the answers

[late elk]

50/51 to 53 isnt that long tbh

[flint ruin]

He is such a clown, lol.

But hey…it got people burning mats, and pushing spending is literally his job!

[shy hamlet]

rev also targets an audience that's more casual than most people posting here

[late elk]

to be fair to him, he was trying to go with the logic that the game is giving more 'side' content and so for some stuff its worth sitting and not skipping ships

but the 50s i think is just the wrong spot

sit at 53 if u absolutely have to

not 50

[fleet depot]

18k on level 29 Borgs

Yeah I’ll never shoot those lower levels ever again

[shy hamlet]

50 seems to move up too many brackets to make sense as a "camping spot" vs 49

[fleet depot]

*19k

[late elk]

the only bad side these days to 50s i feel like is the SLBs

the opportunity cost of not earning g5 if ur ever gonna go there though i feel like is too great

[flint ruin]

100% agree. 52 gets you a very strong Tally if you keep it in sync with ops. Events and dailies are super easy to deal with.

[late elk]

especially when a 56 ship does SO much for you

[frank loom]

56 is forever away for low/no spend.

[late elk]

i wouldnt say forever

ive been in the 50s for about...6 months now i think? ive spent maybe $100 or $200 in that time

and im a few months off 56

[solid abyss]

What crew setup are you guys using for xindi armada? Mentioned to use burning and borg enhancements crew. Upper Deck: Georgiou, 5of11, 6of11. Lower Deck: queen borg, dezoc, Torres

[flint ruin]

It’s a very very very very long road. Not infinite but…

[little violet]

Not true... You have to focus on buildings and it is very doable.. I know because I am not a heavy spender and I am there now

I do one thing at time.. Buildings... Then research and sprinkle ships inbetween

[light ibex]

Scopely is outdoing itself... Pretty soon maintenance announcements will look like wave requests and armada announcements. 🤣

[fleet depot]

Disco is insanely expensive to try and level at ops 25

nuked my trit storage

[light ibex]

Just have it maxed before you go ops 40.

[fleet depot]

even a t5 Disco costs more than a t9 Kehra

[zenith coyote]

Hopefully you aren't throwing ore down on a 53uc...

[little violet]

I would not recommend that.. Since 55 and 56 will make you regret that choice

[zenith coyote]

Whispers... t4 northcutt

[little violet]

Mines T6

[late elk]

mine's t3

rofl

[little violet]

Pushed it to 6 for the cube tiers

[late elk]

f the cube

lol

[little violet]

Plus crystal is the easiest of all three to get your hands on

[late elk]

oh i have plenty of mats

still not spending it

lol

[flint ruin]

I’ll build one, because it’ll basically come free. Beyond that…it won’t get much love. 56 is the next key level.

[fleet depot]

This system has good ale right?

[little violet]

I had 260k uncommon ore now down to 155k after tier 4ing my Crozier... Building shuttle bay and academy...

56 is super hard to get to

[wet anchor]

There’s very few events still where you compete with g5

[silver parcel]

majority of the brackets switch at 51

think there maybe have been 1 that i was with g5 at 50 and that was the same in the 40s

or 2

[wet anchor]

I compete with 51-70 in daily slb’s which is great. Printed 84k lat yesterday 😁

[little violet]

They were sleeping then 😛

[wet anchor]

Nah was during the day. The payouts are too small for whales to care about.

430k points for 1st in recruit slb

[late elk]

really?

they go up to millions on my server

...yes, the daily ones

🤣

[little violet]

that is not even top 25 on my server lol

[wet anchor]

It varies a lot. The one before this went up to 700k or something I think

[silver parcel]

seen it go to over a million before, got 2nd in that one with like 500k

the recent one got 1st with like 530k

[wet anchor]

We have a 70 now, so it’s not like we’re a very low spend server

[late elk]

...

[flint ruin]

Yeah, that was a weird find. Without really trying, the dailies SLBs return good value.

The BP SLBs are a disaster…although with so many bigs functionally retiring, some of these are getting easier now, too.

[late elk]

was gonna say charged probes

is the only other thing id add hahaha

NX-01 BPs ?

at least i can get 150k charged nanos a day with the talios skin ....

[light tendon]

Anyone got a guess on the total f2p event currency this month🤔 seems people are getting alot less

[dull mason]

Yeah

[fleet depot]

three more ops levels till I get the Saladin

so long

[late elk]

thats lightning quick compared to what it will begin to take you

to get stuff 😛

[sterile parcel]

They’re totally low balling us recently and trying to drain everyone’s stuff so they buy more. Must be end of financial year in Saudi

[light tendon]

Thought so, I got afew officer's and 2 ships last time😔

[thorn plinth]

That only works if people let it.

[dull mason]

I'm judging that I'll have half of what I usually get 🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️🥺

[late elk]

with these bad event stores, does it even matter as much

[sterile parcel]

Hopefully less and less are. As I said to CS about 3 months ago when I got stiffed over a standard epic armada I’m not spending any more until I see a noticeable improvement in the way the player base are treated. We are not cash cows we are customers. A lot of us are only still here because of the friendships we made during a particularly challenging global pandemic.

[late elk]

and what we DO get has super strong limits

like at this point the event store is dead

[light tendon]

Could you explain plz? Am not f2p just alittle picky on what i spend on and only at the last min

[thorn plinth]

@light tendon there is no mandatory spending. Not even a subscription. So the only money scopely is making is what people choose to spend. If it's our choice to spend and there making millions then obviously some people are having enough fun to spend the money. And as long as that continues. We can all expect statis quo.

[twilit lintel]

what op lvl

[silver parcel]

35

[dull mason]

It's very slow you have to claim creds for a mission that should get you started,
FYI I haven't done that part yet

[twilit lintel]

my alliance leader is op 33 and has a mission there lol

[dull mason]

He he

[twilit lintel]

yeah i cant even do the solo armada lol

[thorn plinth]

Lol when those first came out tons of people had issues with them. Lol

[little violet]

You need some more levels on your officers

I know it is easier said than done tho

[thorn plinth]

Some of those people had way more time in game than you do don't sweat it.

[shy hamlet]

also more officer stats on the leveled ones

i'm sure someone can beat this no sweat

i am behind on all manner of assorted officer things for my ops and some people have more ops than i do

[silver parcel]

😂

[twilit lintel]

omg

[shy hamlet]

thank you for proving my point!

[thorn plinth]

Lol

[twilit lintel]

wait

what op lvl?

[shy hamlet]

49

i think 57?

[silver parcel]

59

[shy hamlet]

ohh congrats!

that's what i get for going on vacation

or it might have been before that and i'm a slacker

who knows

[silver parcel]

what i need for 60

[shy hamlet]

oh easy. just a few small scoops with an amalgam should cover that.

only 350T par, pfft that's pocket change

[silver parcel]

the rss will be easy

it's the rares that will take a bit

[twilit lintel]

thats very hard fo op 32 that will takes years lol

[thorn plinth]

You won't be ops 32 bye the time you need that kinda change lol

[light tendon]

Meh use a amal when you get it and get in on a whale raid have it in afew hours😅

[thorn plinth]

During incursions they hand off broken bases when the pull gets below what they like lol

[wet anchor]

Ops 50 😁

On the bridge, probably could get it a wee bit higher in the captain’s chair

[twilit lintel]

nicee

so yall whales?

[thorn plinth]

They are lol

[wet anchor]

Nah just been playing close to three years now

[silver parcel]

dolphin at best

[thorn plinth]

@twilit lintel there modest lol

[silver parcel]

if i was a whale my sanctus would be closer to 1b, right now it's 555m

[thorn plinth]

There are several levels of whaledom! Haha!

[minor furnace]

Whaledom?

I am a karp. 🙃

[thorn plinth]

It was whaledom or whalophelia! Haha!

[minor furnace]

Just as bad

[silver parcel]

https://tenor.com/view/orca-whale-dance-gif-926668757013758648

really need to sit down and grind out klingon rep so i can finish the sompek

150 bps, got enough credits to get the rest, just need the rep

[raven sigil]

https://tenor.com/view/the-grind-dont-stop-gif-26421494

[thorn plinth]

@wet anchor 4.5 yrs your doing great! Lol

[empty bluff]

@lapis seal could you have someone explain why the reset times are all over the place? And if they are going to change? I thought this might be something for the view.

[raven sigil]

We have altered the time zones. Pray we don't alter them further.

[fleet depot]

Finally I’ve reached the point where I can send a ship to the Delta Quadrant, farm a full cargo hold of trit and return and repair the ship in under five minutes (free speedup)

Honestly they need to buff resource mining

Rn there’s absolutely no reason to mine par, trit and dil besides completing missions

Cuz you can just send a ship to the Delta Quadrant and hit lost hostiles

Way faster than any miner

Even worse, you can do that with a miner, and do it faster than mining

If I have time I send a Botany Bay up there and farm a full cargo hold

Faster than two Envoys mining trit concurrently

[lethal coral]

Yes but you can mine all night and all day without having to be there clicking on stuff 😄

Still not worth it but that's probably the reason it's so bad

[fleet depot]

I rather be audited

[silver parcel]

https://tenor.com/view/nouns-nounish-nounsdao-abacus-counting-gif-24427835

[fleet depot]

Nighttime is for mining materials not resources

[silver parcel]

nighttime is for mining stations for resources

[thorn plinth]

I pulled 400m a pull for 2 hours earlier that's how to mine.

Couple hrs and done.

[fleet depot]

Trying to level up my D’vor by farming augments

I don’t hit anything under level 26

It’s not working very well

[wet anchor]

Why you farming trit from hostiles 🤔

[fleet depot]

Draining stations is boring

And doesn’t yield ship xp

[thorn plinth]

It is boring that's why I do it in small chunks. Lol

[silver parcel]

I'll only move for a station with like 500b or more

otherwise i pop and let someone else have it

[thorn plinth]

Lol my minimum is a about 250m a pull I'm sure it'll go up as I do.

[shy hamlet]

2b a scoop or no go

but my amal's a bit past 0.2%

the good one at least

will do less if it's trit or dil heavy, or war

[thorn plinth]

I spent an hour scooping a base with my talios cause the guy wouldn't shield and kept changing crews trying to stop me lolol was kinda fun.

[shy hamlet]

I mean annoying people is its own reward

[sly grove]

He apparently enjoyed it too though or he would of just shielded

[thorn plinth]

I figured at first he was calling in a biggie but no defense came.

[shy hamlet]

some people are really stubborn about not wanting to shield while online

if you don't have red dots I don't get that

if you do it makes total sense if you're doing something about it

[nova bear]

I'm a big fan of alternating perfectly timed warship and Amalgam hits until someone is finally inspired to shield or relocate. 😇

[shy hamlet]

it's great

[silver parcel]

1.2m base loot, 800k side cart

launch box 1.6m

Now only need to do it like 10 more times

[fleet depot]

Is the NX-01 just 💩

Given what I’ve seen its sole purpose is to just unlock the refinery options

All combat are still done with regular ships even vs Xindi

[silver parcel]

It's only useful against the aquatics

[proven bolt]

What does the aquatic xindi loop unlock other than picHugh? Are there unique favors for the aquatics, or just more exBorgExpansion loot?

[silver parcel]

ex borg loot, misc favors

[proven bolt]

Aside from picHugh, could I unlock it all, more slowly, with og xindi?

[silver parcel]

yes

[proven bolt]

My fomo for that ship is in negative territory now 😂. Thanks 🙏

[wet anchor]

But it is a lot more ex-borg loot

[silver parcel]

and if you eventually unlock the refit, that's more rss

[little violet]

blah 1 short

[silver parcel]

starts out low but apparently ramps up with more tiers

[fleet depot]

[silver parcel]

1 box pull

actually gave me artifact shards i needed

[fleet depot]

Got a single Bortas blueprint

[thorn plinth]

Gotta start somewhere!

[fleet depot]

The free shards feature of armory honestly useless

It’ll take 70 days for me to up it to level 26 for it to provide the first refits

At which point I probably already have G3 epics

What even is the point of giving free shards in the armory

*71 cuz division result should be rounded up

Some ops 40 dingus is farming hostiles in the level 20 Augment system with a Feesha

[thorn plinth]

Lol the 20 system, is kinda low lol it would takes weeks of that to level a feesha.

[odd echo]

Anyone know what armadas count for the event I been starting rare and epic armada and getting no credit

[shy hamlet]

ones that use the normal FKR/etc directives, it's based on spending those specifically not what specific armadas you spend them on

[odd echo]

I been doing fed armadas and getting no credit

[odd echo]

I don't have the new ship am only ops 35

[thorn plinth]

Lol I got 20,000 rare exchange directives.

To bad they don't work for the event lol 😂

[flint ruin]

That’s weird. My entire event store disappeared. Everything else seems ok.

[silver parcel]

interesting borg cube

[normal tide]

I know I am late to the party, but what am I suppposed to do with this Cube now that I built it?

[tacit herald]

They are way over estimating how many would pay hundreds of dollars to run multi armadas. And the packs themselves aren’t worth it. 400? I’m sorry no.

[dusky cove]

Basically kill hostiles in the suggested system to charge the beam and once charged use the beam to kill the suggested hostile in that chart to get technological loot which can be refined in the refinery. It gives mats for ex-borg research and components to upgrade the cube.

The cube has tiering caps as shown in this chart

[grand patio]

Eu server is down

[candid quarry]

Mine is fine, what server number are you on?

[grand patio]

Have no fear, it was my signal. My bad

[candid quarry]

Glad to hear it’s resolved 🖖

[grand patio]

I figured it but my signal is still nonexistent

[dull mason]

On the off chance
You might want to try another Mobile phone provider, other companies might have a closer tower ❔
Just a guess ...

Keep your old phone number and transfer it over ❔❔

[silver parcel]

And have finally reached the end.

[solid plinth]

@terse jackal any reason why the newton didn’t get a cloak ?? All other 46 ships got one ?

[silver parcel]

because it never had one

They didn't add new cloaks for them, they just made them available for credits, ones that were only available as store purchases prior

Only new ones are the g6 ships

[solid plinth]

Would like the newton to have one though. 🥹

[foggy lark]

Lag is bad.

[narrow ridge]

After 24h it is official and can be anounced: the game will change name to "Star Trek LAG Command"! Congratulations are in order. 🤦🙄🤦

[foggy lark]

No more quantity please 🥺

[grand patio]

It's normally pretty reliable, just in one location it's not. I will consider it, thank you 😊

[hardy tree]

Fed ships in general shouldn't have a cloak. Of they brought out a excelsior class then that could as there was one episode with them testing a cloak out on it.

[pastel ridge]

I can agree with this, this game lags and crashes so often it isn’t even funny

[light tiger]

Hello, is it a chance that someone have the list of Primes based on their impact that can researched for free? I know RevDeuce had a video about it, but that list would be more helpful if possible. 🙂

[normal tide]

Thank you

[paper blaze]

@polar cliff@golden rapids@delicate tinsel@mortal elk@stable robin@humble orbit very bad move not allowing Solo armadas to score in Armada SMS

[cinder prism]

But if solos scored there’s no incentive for players to buy armada packs. Remember who you’re dealing with here!

[floral ridge]

So we got more new content but no incursion exo? Very definition of quantity over quality

[paper blaze]

also 0 chance to complete Interspecies SMS

[signal pewter]

Ops 53 and ur events will stay this way

[floral ridge]

Idk how you are supposed to even open chests from these new armadas they are so expensive.

[dull mason]

Your welcome

[cinder prism]

It’s obvious. Buy more packs!

[signal pewter]

Not doin it

I'm not even usin the 10 epic and 8 rare starts i have for this

For currency for this event store?

[thorn narwhal]

💯

[signal pewter]

Out their ********* mind

[cinder prism]

But you will make Scopely sad. Low engagement and no $$$ 😭

[signal pewter]

Good

Ain't spending my time or $ on this

[dull mason]

I have an idea 💡,
Remove Klingon burial Ship Armada's... And replace them with Faction one's
Put Exchange Armada's, " inside " Exchange/Rogue Space....💡💡

[gray lintel]

So value of event, 5 rare armadas per epic officer shard..
Not worth doing.
8nterspecies intelligence sms 1 epic shard for sms completion

Slb 600 loot for 25th to 50th in 51 to 70 bracket.
Just doing pulls... Useless.

Am at 163k event loot for this arc event store and nothings saying buy me.
So out of that so far 120k was from sms.
Worst loot ever.
And if loot for armada event is same scale as rest this week, I might get 200k loot, but can't see
You asked feedback on what to add

Added.. Specials officers. Nothing else...

[dull mason]

I know I'm short on Event store Credits, at this point, and the
" Non-Credit" ticket Event's are Rubbish, not only that the picture on the ticket event has " Galactic Recruitment Token's" on it BUT they failed to actually have any as rewards 👎🏼🤦🏼‍♂️ 👎🏼

[signal pewter]

Those are in the rare tickets

[dull mason]

Exactly where are they in the ticket Event's?!
They didn't bother 🤦🏼‍♂️

[signal pewter]

U save or ofc buy regular tickets to do all 9 in one weekend for the rare ticket

[mortal elk]

... Mondays... for the last four months, after doing a full weekend of regular tickets

[thorn fjord]

Because you refined all 6 on day 1?

[paper blaze]

yep

[dull mason]

Your not getting the point.

[paper blaze]

like most did

[mortal elk]

Same boat here, but meh 😄

[signal pewter]

I knew better but did it anyway.

[gray lintel]

You not claiming you biomayerials gift and doing your refines 8hrs and 12hrs?

[paper blaze]

i do

but not enough to reach stage 1 yest

[gray lintel]

No idea what those 2 extra currencies are for.. Cos more you refine, more biomayerials you get.
Am up to 32. 8hrs till next 2x max refine

You must have had bubbajoe rng luck

[dull mason]

these are on the ticket event screen, they Failed to give us these as rewards
@mortal elk

[knotty flume]

How lucky you are! I put 3 or 4 in and get 1 back 😮‍💨 so devastating

[dull mason]

They are fibbing, and we still don't have event store credits as rewards

[fleet depot]

Can I get that to 100%

[shy hamlet]

yes; if you increase your assessment rank

or fail that upgrade

[fleet depot]

What determines the strength of trial hostiles

[gray lintel]

The q star rating, then the milestone

Your ops, ships etc has no bearing on qs trials

It's really a test of your capabilities.
With poor rewards... But you can buy everything to not bother doing it

[twilit lintel]

Good Void

[shy hamlet]

it's necessary if you want to progress forbidden tech but otherwise the rewards aren't great

[gray lintel]

Just simply buy whip.
Qs trials is now useless

[fleet depot]

[shy hamlet]

dailies are extremely worth doing especially if you don't have the whip

[gray lintel]

Can't progress forbidden tech without whip anyway.. As can't obtain more than 1 rare ftp

[shy hamlet]

even if you do, you'll want to keep up with them so you can refine catalysts daily

[shy hamlet]

two might be possible, they gave out a lot of rare shards back when in events

[fleet depot]

you can get 1 epic ftp

(The mining one that they hand out right at the start)

[gray lintel]

Whip was brought in to replace events giving rare and epic shards... And no whip sourcing

So really you get unc all, commons, then 1 rare 1 epic rest are paywalled

[shy hamlet]

theres also the non-refinery f2p ones like metreon cascade or iirc the cloaking device

[shy hamlet]

tetracynate is common

[fleet depot]

Oh

Nvm

[gray lintel]

No ftp has finished 3 star trials yet..

[fleet depot]

Just looked at it again the color isn’t right

My eyesight so bad lol

[gray lintel]

Oh you can get agimus in syndicate.... In a few years

[fleet depot]

Didn’t help that the unlocked tetracyanate is purple

[shy hamlet]

shouldn't have to finish 3* for those. do you? i thought they were by the end of 2*

[dry valve]

I’m syndicate 31 and have never bought XP packs, ain’t years 😆

18, I forgot my birthday

[shy hamlet]

lol sure but I'm not gonna play that dumb if we're talking f2p syndicate progression right now.

[gray lintel]

You only get 550 rare shard half way through 3 star trials, need 500 to unlock 1 rare, yet there's 5 to choose.

Basicly whip replaced events.. But no sourcing on whip

[shy hamlet]

ah. for sure you don't get them all that way free, yeah. which is annoying

[gray lintel]

And epic shards need to complete 4 star trials to get choice of 1

[shy hamlet]

whip probably sells really well but it's also basically necessary for the entire loop so I'm not surprised but I am unhappy

[gray lintel]

Every new hostile introduced now made it harder cos they put them all in same pool that qs trials pulls from

[fleet depot]

Apparently nadion isn’t up for sale

So there’s no way to fast track the armory at all

[dry valve]

Spot on, it’s one of the few packs evens recommend to people who never spend it’s that good

[gray lintel]

So tell me how you beat a 45t ship

[fleet depot]

They still haven’t removed silent enemy from trials huh

[shy hamlet]

i can see it for sale

[gray lintel]

No slow daily drip. Well it's better than monthly drip from incursions

[shy hamlet]

?
armory has a daily drip

[dry valve]

Yes you’ve collected it every day 😆

[gray lintel]

It's the xindi aquatics in 3 star that's the issue

[shy hamlet]

gimme

[fleet depot]

I still only see subspace relay upgrade in the store

Subspace relay key (that which is used to build the thing and get it to level 1) is missing

[gray lintel]

They only fire 10 shots per weapon and have go home cannons, but qs trials randomise ship, weapons, and firing pattern, hull and shields.

So right now you could have a silent enemy firing aquatics weapons

[fleet depot]

So I can’t buy that either

[dry valve]

I wouldn’t spend on any of those old buildings

[shy hamlet]

should come around next incursion

[shy hamlet]

also this

[dry valve]

Extra docks, ship primes, whip, forbidden tech that gives catalyst far more impactful

[dusky cove]

Who wants to bet how many and which grinds scopely will add next month? Perhaps with a bonus question if there'll be incursions between the two arcs as scopely claims the loot exo is ever so hard to fix?

[shy hamlet]

at ops, what, 25-30ish? for sure not the time to be buying buildings or even much I think

[gray lintel]

Or a wd section 31 ship with silent lvl hull shield firing aquatics weapons...

[signal pewter]

My admiral sent a ticket in about a 2.2 billion silent enemy in his q trials. They refreshed it but guess what they gave him

[dry valve]

I got four Silents in a row, straight after the message they fixed it 😂

[mortal elk]

3b silent? 👀

[gray lintel]

Have seen as high as a 45 trillion ship

[signal pewter]

2.3 bil one

[dusky cove]

I'm betting scopely slashed the stfc dev team even further and we're in sunset mode. This many issues just seems intentional.

[signal pewter]

He's a fresh 56. We both stepped up last weekend i went to 53 He's at 56 now

[shy hamlet]

sunset mode games don't make new stuff

[signal pewter]

All the rss and mats i spent to ops up and build 2 g5 uc ships barely put me in top 50

[gray lintel]

And patch 64.1 which content wasn't ready for patch 64.. Has broken everything fixed in last 2 months...

It's like they design content put it on shelf, then just load it in without patching it

[dusky cove]

Yes they do, sunset mode doesn't mean the cashgrabs stop. Not like scopely is putting much effort in the new content

[signal pewter]

Couldn't continue to sell without the new

[gray lintel]

So far last 18months been 3 steps forward 2 steps back.

[signal pewter]

Eventually the spenders will have bought everything

They are bleeding us dry since they bought out

Been more new buy events since then then there was the time played b4

[dusky cove]

While the 5 year stfc was the worst arc month I'll gladly argue the xindi arc series are the worst or at least at the very top of the worst arcs. So many technical issues, badly designed content, blatant lack of testing crowned with a pathetic event store finale.

And yeah stfc was always p2w but it does feel we're moving to pay 2 participate for too much stuff

[fleet depot]

When is the next incursion

[signal pewter]

Between arcs like always

[fleet depot]

Once every month?

[signal pewter]

Nothing been announced for it yet

Once a month

[dusky cove]

They've replaced it with a brand new assault event series as they can't fix incursion exos

[fleet depot]

[signal pewter]

If they still can't fix the exo's then there's a chance we msy not have it

[dusky cove]

I'm joking to be clear but the removal of incursion exos seems intentional so I wouldn't even be sure we'll see another run. Without the exos I imagine nearly nobody will bother with them.

[signal pewter]

They intentionally removed them when they weren't working

[dusky cove]

Can't or won't? I'm really not buying can't unless their project management/devs/staffing issues have become even worse than evident before and while not impossible that would be telling about stfc life expectancy.

[signal pewter]

Either or

[dusky cove]

Would be quite telling if they can't fix an issue on something that wasn't supposed to be changed after a month wouldn't you agree?

[mortal elk]

Not at all... how long did we have the zoom bug?

[signal pewter]

I have no idea about coding

[mortal elk]

I still want to see their codebase 😂

[signal pewter]

I build houses I'm horrid with anything tech related

[mortal elk]

https://xkcd.com/1833/

xkcd: Code Quality 3

It's like a half-solved cryptogram where the solution is a piece of FORTH code written by someone who doesn't know FORTH.

[signal pewter]

I on the other hand make sure I employ people that can do job. Doesn't seem like scopely does

[signal pewter]

Who's waiting? If ur still waiting that's ur own gullibility

[dusky cove]

Which was absurdly long but likely more complicated and it had fixes rolled back multiple times due to scopes's terrible project management. I don't even want to imagine what a mess their coding and documentation is.

[pure yew]

im sure they hire a intern every arc then fire them after

[gray lintel]

They've only finished the 2023 content.
Not even started 2024 content yet

[pure yew]

college intern in UCLA trying to get some work experience 🤣

[mortal elk]

Is that a good or a bad thing? 😄

[thorn fjord]

Lag affects productivity not just servers

[pure yew]

pretty sure mirror universe was announced in 2020..

still not here yet

🤣

[mortal elk]

got the ISS, what more do you want? 😛

[pure yew]

the officers they showcased

[gray lintel]

Apparently quality oy applies to 2024 content
So far there isn't any 2024 content and they might just skip 2024 content and start again in 2025

[mortal elk]

I'm looking forward to seeing what happens next

[pure yew]

bottom should be alot more skeletons

[mortal elk]

I've been a bug-fix developer, it's probably one of the most rewarding tasks in terms of "Oh wow, thanks for fixing that" when you get to be the bearer of good news to a client, but also one of the most draining when it comes to dealing with the colleagues writing the bugs in the first place 🤣 ... here, they get none of the 'thats amazing', just more 'Well you did that, what about xyz..." 😐

[pure yew]

to be fair i bet they thought about making mirror universe another universe (server) but that would double server cost

[gray lintel]

Bug fixes we changed the text so you still can't understand what it's supposed to do.
Real bugs, unfixed cos we have no idea what it's supposed to do

[dull mason]

Nothing changes, only more Struggling and Grinding

[gray lintel]

Lately they've fixed bugs by paying someone to code it right and then sold it as a prime

Surprised there's no prime, prime packs prime

[mortal elk]

by the time I left that job (start with 50 tasks, do 70 tasks, end day on 50 different tasks...what the blip), I could barely look at the dev team without growling 😂

[gray lintel]

Gives 1% discount per tier 10 lvl prime

[fleet depot]

What’s today’s battle pass event

[mortal elk]

that'd probably cost them too much in the long run 😄

(we don't know either)

[fleet depot]

I wish I have better memory
Send ship into Klingon space so I can farm traders there, come back and it engaged 5 fighters and died

[gray lintel]

Well let's just say we've had a use armada directives event, next up is gain and spend armada creds.... So hope you saved directives to earn credits

[fleet depot]

Cuz I went chatting in another server and forgot my ship had arrived

[gray lintel]

Then it's kill silent enemies, xindi aquatics and reptilian.. So save your hostile limits...

[mortal elk]

lunch break... do I go for a bike ride or sort out the kickboard in the kitchen? 😐

[gray lintel]

Don't think many will have keramite to spend today well that they can spend

[mortal elk]

what a mite now?

[twilit lintel]

Don't forget to put the solar eclipse April 8th on your calendar, that's when the Vulcans will visit us.

[gray lintel]

But yay 1st place in slb will get 12k event cpins=2 epic officer shards

Sms will get you 1

[shy hamlet]

what's a kickboard?

[gray lintel]

Umm both sound like exercise

[mortal elk]

yeah, I need to so some 😂

too much time sitting on my rear talking to you lot 😂

[shy hamlet]

the bike is probably less painful on your back if google came up right on that for me

[gray lintel]

Which will make you happy and which the wife?

[mortal elk]

see also: plinth, but the board that runs beneath cabinets, we swapped an integrated(broken) washer for a free standing one, and I need to cut it in half 😄

[gray lintel]

Cut board in half, give to wife to do it right as you never do it right and enjoy the bike ride

[dry valve]

Circular saw, extra cabinet legs and brackets.. jobs a goodun

[dull mason]

Aka Skirtingboard LoL

[mortal elk]

skirting goes around the edge of walls

This feelsl ike a really good idea...

[dull mason]

Extra storage

[mortal elk]

yeah

might be better than keeping the oven trays in the oven 😂
