I agree the pack was crazy having doubles come at you
Definitely save the beam for the last wave
Ok i see
In some sense, I agree. I'm doing ok in the 50 elites with only my G5 epics, so I'll sprinkle one in when needed. I have no problem ignoring content that does nothing for me. I just think that the Scopely game designers can do a better job of making the new content approachable for the average players so they want to try it and get something out of it. But their game design lacks any nuance.
Did you try using Cerri/Max fort? I got 4/5 and had I timed my Lorca's fist better, maybe there'd have been a chance to beat the last one.
OPS 66 here
If you have a maximum of two hours of free time during the working day and you want to play this game now. You can't, you have to process googolplex of clicks first, that takes forever that never ends.. What a progress.. 🥴
I call the start of my STFC 1000 clicks™
Scopely promised improvements for all. Scopely does very little, what are you supposed to do with that stupid special ship? I as an early G6 player have more use for Freebooters G6, group armadas 61+, more resources for my G6 ships, nothing at all this arc for G6 players. Getting more parts for my ships is not the main problem..
As you get further into your G6 ships, uncommon and rare ship parts can be a roadblock.
But with the changes in the favor doubling broken ship part claims, not sure if it's as bad as before.
i asked support for a refund, but they said because i built the ship i cant have a refund. not exactly fair because how are you supposed to know that the ship as advertised and promoted as is false or not without first building it
parts not so problem trit other story. Almost all events only gives 1K /50k
Later you will see parts are the only problem. Mats and rss are the easy part. 😅
the new ship not helping with that problem. First you have to max that thing out.. that takes the same time to get the parts
Does the extra fleet commander slot usually show up in event stores or only during certain ones?
My understanding is it shows up if you haven't bought the last FC slot.
mostly not; it's often P2 only
I’ve never bought any slots but don’t see it in the store yet
It does show up on an regular base since like 2-3 Arcs during new Arc Events. Started if i remember it right Mid 2024.
If this ugly ship had a zero to the end of the rare daily ship parts, would be an easy choice. Currently it means spend 10x packs for the privilege of doing yet another loop for the equivalent of 1x parts pack per month (maxed)… easy choice to stay with parts packs. 🤦🏻♀️
Back when I was under Syndicate 40, I had bought the last FC slot and it didn't give me the option in the Event store.
Maybe it will show up later then but not there now
If it doesn't show up for you, pretty sure it's not going to.
I hope for you but i doubt it.
That sux I really didn’t want to pay real money to open a 2nd commander
@ionic cargo Which Ops Level are you?.
50
Scopely just has a different view of improvement than we as players 🤪
I mean they look at their numbers and then make their decisions.
Thanks to vindicator I will have all fleet commanders open soon but still only one slot, guess I might have to buy a 2nd one
Many had hoped that this Arc the Relativity would be able to obtain for free during the event but as you can see on your own it's not the case so i guess that says a lot.
You open slots with your command center and syndicate
If you only have one FC slot, you need to work on your command center.
Second slot is at lvl 40 on the Command Center
Third slot at lvl 40 syndicate.
Weeeeeeeeeee.... The lag is still here
I think it was pay for the 5'th
Well neither are high enough yet to get those, although I guess if im patient a bit longer my command center only needs 5 more levels for 40
This ship is absolutely horrible. Worthless in battle. multi-prong attack thing does practically nothing. Refinery is trash (best source of ships parts??). This is worse than the Vindicator or the Sarcophagus. This is an all time low. Not even the refinery can save this one.
You will get there, wish you the best.
Then there is no point in buying a second slot because your going to be limited by them anyway
Which ship are you talking about?.
GS-31
Good point, thanks
And you were not able to already tell that by looking at the Stats/Features?.
Guess not.
I've learned to review what the content creators say about the ship first.
A lot of the value was dependent on the content. Needed time to play and experience that first.
I'm not spending $700+ to make the ship useable at my level.
Why.. They are paid to get you to buy the ship....
I guess many were just hyped with the $copley promise. Not exactly their fault. Well, maybe not learning after 6 years! 🤣
I got sucked in because the rev actually was amazing for ship mats and I thought this would be the same for ship parts. But it's absolute trash.
I listened to the UltimateDjz stream on it pre-release.
If you are buying it for the ship and not the refinery... it going to be trash even when you are getting rare ship parts...
Yeah, rev is a great ship, and free now this store.
It wasn't looking good for my tier (G6).
Except they said it was the best source for ship parts but it's actually worse than the Eviscerator
That's definitely the other issue, all the payouts are completely ship tier based, nothing on ops level, so need to spend $500+ to upgrade it, screw that.
Wrong... TIer 14 for G6 ship parts... T6 for the same ship parts from the Gs-31...
Yeah, it was an estimate of $700 (and probably turned out to be more with them shortchanging the packs).
Surpasses it at tier 7
For what looks to be a one trick pony ship.
last 5 months we got 4 special ships, that is way too much. I don't want spend time on that nonsense 🥴
Na, i get it. Some ships are cool and make sense and help you when they got released, while others are till today an running joke if you are on Server that has ascended before you joined it. I don't blame those that got an Sarcophagus while they had no other choice. People seem to forget that if your Server doesn't have those higher Faction/Special Ships that the Ship has some usage.
Yeah, if you want it there day one...
we build fracton ship and we use it for many months even years
See and this is where i 100% agree with you. We don't need more "Special Ships", we need more Factions Ships.
<@&509690795536941056> Has there been any notice of re opening the spring flash pass store?
You will use the refinery till you quit so not the same comparison..
we reopened it right, did you miss it?
Any word about the broken missions?
Is it opened now?
Testers should test with only the free stuff you can get at each ops level, but nothing maxed for the previous tier until mid next one. 3* research maxed at 45, 4* research maxed at 55, etc. Mats primes gotten when you get the corresponding mats unlocked. Gives a more realistic scenario that everything maxed to the brim which probably applies to the 1% of the players that excel at arenas every Monday.
Well considering it just closed yesterday at reset, if it was re opened i dont see it
They need to test with both. They have to make sure it's "difficult but achievable" for the target groups but also need to have a good challenge at the end for players who are at the end. This game has astonishingly little endgame content. This is good for the more advanced players. The regular waves are for the masses.
It's right in the name: Elite Solo
Whoever is messing with game right now needs to stop...
I need so many Rev BP's I'll be collecting them till Xmas
But I've given up going for it, I'd rather work on faction Rep
Problem is they're selling a ship that can't do its primary function out of the box which they touted for a week, no day 1 parts bonus, and no hope of completing the SMSs they created for said new ship.
That's probably why the Revenant is in the Event store now.
A 👆🏼
Day one no ship is useful. Specialty, faction, whatever. Shouldn't be an expectation. However, as it shouldn't be an expectation, I do agree with you on the events and I've passed along that feedback several times to the CMs. Live Ops shouldn't have included it in the SMS goals.
I doubt it'll go for it,
I'd rather have that monaveen
Depends on your level. I'm already way past monaveen content. Still got revenant content to do.
I'm L42, and only need 50 monaveen bps
The Revnenant is a fine ship. Heck, the whole loop design is great. The poly armada combat is still buggy, and seems to be mainly the 56 type 2 ones causing rando cancels, but progression is going at a good steady pace and the benefits awesome.
Yeah when they say on the events you have to do lvl 60 with a brand new ship.. That is bs
I agree, I love the loop especially all the mats and rss from pulls
I guess 2025 ships are gonna be useless
Along with 2024
Let me try the Relativity on a solo again as a test. 🤣 I just throw two epic G5s to solo ones because it just works.
I don't have relativity yet but I already know I won't use it and my alliance doesn't use even 1 half the time on the formations
Relativity is quite helpful on the Formations.
You have to have it for the formations...
Formation requirements might have shifted a lot. DTI loop for people that got the ship should be done to almost done (favors/building) by now.
Unless you punch down.
Regular exo do not work
Not if you hit low enough with big enough ships
Yeah then the rewards are garbage
Waste of directives though, just get a rela and hit appropriate targets.
Some people just overpower them by blowing the ones they can on rounds 1-2
Also it sources g6 ship bps.....
Artifacts and seska...
So the ship is amazing...
Unless you're lvl70 with maxed ships you'll be needing the Relativity to hit size appropriate Formations.
Rela's nice if you get it early, it can easily be one of your two ships. And the loop is one of the most important ones in the game to fuel. There's so much power in there.
We tend to hit the 53s with one in the static leg but 0 relas we do 50s
Yeah my alliance use 1 Relativity on the static to do the lvl60s.
If you don't have the ship.. 50's may be worth it for you 🤷, but you are also missing the improved refinery... Krenim hair artifact which to me is one of the best in the game
I'd love to try 60s but based on my alliance that would just be a certain group of people and very few could join
Does anyone have the ship part refinery overhauls?
I'm a month away from it but I'll never use it
We're a very small alliance, and we do the 60s with 3 of us.
You say that till you get it
Encrypted intel boost in the solo is nice...
Itll take 6 months for it to be useful for me and as an ops 58 players 200m per faction per full pull is nothing when I'm at 100b
On all 3 factions
Wrong... Mine already 400m
I get 2.5b per faction pull too...
For all three factions...
Much more useful once I go g6 but I'll probably be close to 500b and it won't matter
That is what they were selling for less .... At 300 bucks.. 100 per faction...
Anywho.. FOr me it was worth it. For other they may not agree. It's fine because it is your money 🤷
Seska, the strand and the Formation chest made it worth it for me.
I agree
I am looking forward to the strand primarily
I just tiered mine again. I'll have to try using it in a solo again. But it's probably still meh
As long as you can progress on the solo ones for a while, you'll be fine. You do need to be able to blow up the mark appropriate ones to get that 1 chest pull though.
Welll I should be okay there I can rip into the 62 zone and I should be able to do those
Haven't tried yet
Shio was designed from a can opener 🤣
I mean, there's a loophole to blow up mark III ones (low ones) with the mark II ship. 😈 (MaxFort FTW)
I don't wanna max fortify to have to do my daily stuff. They don't give enough juice
Stop making up kill a specific faction hostile 😕
faction hunt but make it separate 😂
I can level a ship for faction hunt...
true at least this event doesnt require you to kill as many hostiles than a regular faction hunt event
Tier 7+ with all three ship buffs and the right crew. Pop a few 60.2s and you’re good for weeks. Love that bit.
@queen jolt anything known about when the last 5 forbidden tech levels will be available?
If you notice, they left space for more challenges. My guess 2026 (G7)
Yes but they are showing the level 60 values everywhere. So that is false advertising at the least.
If you call CS, they'll say working as intended 🤣. Have some ops 65+ players in my alliance that tried.
I dids it lol
Impossible.
Very overpowered slow grow OP’s 48 here with Max Tier G4 Rares and good crews, was completely wrecked on wave 2 on the 45 Elites.
No ship lasted more than 2 rounds.
I basically went from taking almost zero damage on standard 45 waves upon completion to being unable to even scratch the paint on the second wave of the 45 Elites.
Considering mid to high OP’s 50’s range without G5 epics tiered up are reporting being unable to complete a 45 elite I’m calling BS 😂
Massive lag again claiming rewards on server 138 EU
I was just able to do the elite 45 at ops 56, needed the GS-31 at T4 plus have the beam dmg at T4. Both of which are G5 gated.
Had to use the beam to kill the last 3 hostiles.
I can't see anyone below ops 56, plus having ship and beam dmg research T4 is supposed to do the lvl45 elite waves.
Totally OP’s appropriate, lol….
That means it would be months before anyone who’s unlocked the ship but isn’t willing to spend on upgrade packs to do the same.
Completing the 1st wave of a 45 elite gives enough for x1 single refine, and you get 1 start per 3 days….
Plus because we are firing the beam at higher level ships the beam is penalized and does less damage
You all wanted more ship parts. Ofcourse Scopely locks it behind the need to have max epic ships to get the parts.
You need ops56 for the beam to do enough dmg to kill them anyways
One stop source for the ship parts you no longer need, because you’ve already maxed that tier of ships!
yeah exactly so why make a level 45 area for ops 45 players 😂
That's T4 ship and T4 beam dmg research.
thank you i really didnt wana pay 99 bucks lol
Yeah, I'm going F2P for it.
Really funny thing is I’ll get more parts from the ExBorg Faction store, Voyager and Eviscerator refinery by like a factor of 10
That's $100 to start. Depending on your tier, you'd need to spend hundreds more to get it useable for your tier.
Look at the ops required for the research and the ship's base beam is 11m at t4
So broken… and that’s needed to beat the 45 elite waves lol
Yep you need to be a g5 player for the ship to be useful on the g4 waves same is true about g5 waves needing a g6 player
As always - next month they Release a skin and a Prime to enhance the ship from useless to almost useless.
I want a refund, lol..
First time in a year I fell for Scopley’s advertising, made the mistake thinking it would do what the Rev did, which I finally unlocked F2P and was impressed by once it got going…
The GS is no way the Parts equivalent to the Rev’s G# sourcing
You need ops51+ to get the ship to T4.
And then need ops56+ for the research.
They might as have made T4, T1.and gated the ship at ops 56.
Yep the ship parts are worse than Eviscerator which is almost a year old at this point
It’s worse than the Voyager, which is what 2 years old?
Eviscerator is mutiple times worse than Voy for parts. Specially after they added the archive.
Well voyager doesn't have guaranteed rare ship parts but the numbers appear that way
at least u can use the evis and voyager refineries for ship parts, the ship parts with the new ship for low levels can only be used once every 6 days 😂
But you can easily pull every day for a couple different ship parts which balanced that a bit imho
Yet Bek said it's "the best source of ship parts across all grades" that was a humongous lie
You can also just farm more Voyager pulls if you want the extra.
itsd the best source if your ops 70
No it's not. At ops 70 they'll just buy ship parts packs.
And even then it's not amazing, just marginally better than the Eviscerator
Still waiting for the obligatory feedback form where they try and push you to give positive answers by reiterating the benefits in the questions.
Oh it won't happen this month cause they screwed up
Kinda ridiculous when you see/hear a mid-powered level 70 w/ a decent size 70 Epic and even HE can't complete the G6 Elite wave ....
oh sorry its T15 ops 61+
But you need ops 70 to kill the elite waves to use the refinery
Again, that's the point. This is a feature that's a challenge on day one, even for endgame players. This is a good thing. It shouldn't be boring for them; now they have something to work on and towards that's part of the content.
They do need to alter the balance for the lower levels, though.
They should have adapted the SMSs to be doable for the plebs also.
a challenge i would welcome, not a dip in my wallet
Just from what I've seen I'm going to suggest the idea that.
Lvl45 is G5 waves
Lvl50 is G6 waves
Lvl60 is G7 waves
If you expect to brute-force it, sure.
Or just spend 2k on the new ship
Just being actually able to do it. No one in G4 is going to be able to actually complete the "G4" elite waves.
Yea it’s pretty much useless when your ships need hundreds of thousands of rare parts! 🤣
they tested the waves with a max primes max syndicate high ops player with 2x the new ship so surely they know what they are doing
A challenge is one thing ... impossible to complete unless you are completely at the top of G6 is another ... and then to require those in G6 and not even close to that "top" to have the same event requirements ... even more ridiculous
Except the maxed out test accounts couldn't be at it
There's two things going on here, IMO.
I think we're so used to content that we just plow through that the idea of difficult content is jarring to people. I, for one, am happy to have an "aspirational" feature added that is actually difficult for me (ops 69).
However, Live Ops didn't get the message. They ran "regular" SMS events like they would for any other ship without considering the difficulty of the task. That was a big mistake.
Still no compensation for yesterday's broken mission
Was it the players fault or why no compensation?
How about taking responsibility for not testing content before going live with it
Other games drop expansions and you don't expect to get through them on day one, right? So that's normal. But those same games don't have regular rewards demanding you get through them on day one, either. That's the failure.
Needing to be mid-high G5 to complete stuff labeled as "G4" isn't aspirational...it's ridiculous
Difficult and impossible are 2 different things.
Yes, again, the G4 waves need to be rebalanced.
And then needing to be top 1% of G5 and into G6 to do G5 content is also ridiculous
Okay so server 19 alliances are now visible on server 74. If there's a merger coming does anyone know when
Except that those who bought the ship will not have an additional "Coin event store" as was the case two months ago with the Rel ship
Happens after any cross-server event like arenas, XSLBs, Incurisons, etc.
Still waiting on some info/clarification on this new "Weakened State" effect .... Bek's video and others made it sound like it was essential in defeating these new waves...
The ships "casts" this effect on Players and Hostiles that the Beam doesn't destroy....
What if anything are the "base effects" of the state?
Because if the "State" has no effects unless you do the research, and the researches that control the effects are (per $copley's wording/description) effects PLAYERS and do not say Hostiles... what's the point?
Or are these descriptions incorrect in their wording?
Im just thinking about 100 days from now when I unlock the ship, and then have to wait another 100 days for it to be useful for its respective content, once the content is no longer relevant. Imo they should let us use the refinery to accumulate the parts needed to bring it up once we unlock it
🤣 Isn't 74 the only one in my cohort that has never had a merger? Last I saw you were finally getting close to one.
Can anyone confirm that it's normal for the solo elite wave defense to end when 1 of the ships gets killed?
We merged with 75 in the beginning of merges
Yeah. my mistake, you're not even close
i dunno what the weakened state does, i seen no difference and half the time when i fired the weapon i didnt even see a debuff item on the hostiles
Is this treasury a "good" treasury?
Depends. Does it have what you need in it? It's highly subjective.
Why in the world would you watch one of there videos expecting to get any remotely useful or accurate information from it. They are just pure propaganda
That's just it .... it "shows" an icon on Hostiles that were too big for the Beam to destroy ... but what is it doing? And again the "hype" was that this was essential... but with no research to enhance it ... or until we hear the base effects , to actually have it "do" anything to Hostiles..... is it a PvP only effect? If so that is at its core a "bait & switch " by what was described
i just took the ship to 60 freebooters and fired the weapon showed a buff icon on them for 3 seconds and its gone, looking that them i see nothing and it did 0 damage
What ops are you, I assume there's a penalty for punching up akin to the cube beam
ops 50
Hit 50 freebooter
Try to hit one more appropriate to your ops level in terms of accounting for the punch up penalty
Or whatever is closest to your ops
I beamed the Freebooters last night as well ... showed the same icon next to the 3 Hostiles... but I did t do look at the battlelog to see if there was damage ..... and I'm Ops 67 , so there would be no penalty
Can a lvl 66 player with strong G6 ships and crews take on Elite lvl 60 solo waves without the new ship?
I guess I'll go do it again and see
yeah i know however you get the ship at ops 45 to help with waves but ops 45 firing the weapon in the elite waves have the same issue with it being penaized and doing nothing, in the wave defence im only doing 8.5m damage to the 55's
Soooo no?
700k lat would definitely help me to get some upgrades and research pushed. I am eyeing it for the refined G3 crystal actually. Currently I am dirt broke in that regard. I have annorax, won't get phlox and mbenga unlocked although I will get close to unlocking them... And idk what the future treasuries will bring, so I am genuinely wondering if the broken desealing rods are worth it for a low level F2P like me. 😅
How low are you?. Below OPs 30?.
35
I failed with G6 epics, albeit with speed crews. The new ship isn’t going to help until maxed either imo. I’m thinking T12+ epics to get close. Good thing the rewards and ship parts aren’t worth the effort. 😂
1.99... Must of been 1990 🤣
The 3 ships did receive the 11M hull damage ... but that's all
I assume that you so far spent not an single Dollar on the Game InGame, correct?.
Yeah. Haven't spent anything in the game.
I have a 11 B power Kos'Karii and a 13 B Cube .... both got wiped out in Wave 3 , though I had speed crew on the Cube as I "thought" since I can easily do a regular G6 wave with those crews I could at least complete the Wave events with them
Ok here comes the part that probably won't shock you at all: As long as you keep not spending an single Dollar on the Game you will keep getting below 1M Latinum in those Treasury. So doesn't matter if you are in the 20/30/40, believe it does change then with 45+ you will keep seeing those smaller amongs while anyone that had so far spend an single Dollar Ingame will see +1 Million Latinum (or above) in those Treasury.
So, if you keep waiting further along while still staying Free2Play it won't matter if you buy the Treasury now or tomorrow or in a year considering your Ops.
Actually, one rod purchase unlocks the paid treasury.
Ah ok that would make sense.
regardless of other purchases, if you don't buy a rod, it will stay f2p
There was a grandfather period where previous purchases bumped you up, but that's been a while
Is there a certain ops level that the “Epic Commander Credits” become available in the Borg refinery?
Should be noted, one $99.99 rod purchase unlocks the paid treasury
ive never bought a rod and this is my treasury
51
hence grandfathering
Thank you
Ops 51 I believe
Did you bought an Battle Pass in the past and/or an additional Build/Research Slot?.
Hitting Borg again
So let me get this straight(if I’m wrong please say so). The treasury fills over time from playing the game and defeating hostiles. But in order to actually access it you have to fight more hostiles and milestones and a deasling rod as well… correct?
To access it is desealing rods.. which are paywalled or one every 4 months
My Treasury is Naff
OPs Level?.
i waste my money on things like this new ship all the time 🤣 , just arsenic said something about buying a rod once to unlock a paid treasury so if i had bought a rod once that treasury would be even better?
Blah humbug
with a paid treasury, it scales with your ops
It definitely does not say anything about paying for it from my perspective. Maybe I’m missing something…
but there is people in my alliance that are ops 50 that have never bought anything that have the same treasury
I learnt what that meant, when I watched an American House building show
Two options: they lied, or a bug. I've seen both happen.
did they ever win anything from a CC event?
doubt it, my admiral dont even do events hes ops 51 with 107m power no rep for faction ships and flys around with a Mona and talios as his strongest ships 😅
like cand1e said, either they lied and bought something during that window, or it's a bug
Maybe I'm being too harsh. I've seen players claim they were f2p here all the time, and when pressed, they say the bp doesn't count.
It's Barn, isn't it?
i see that all the time
Bp doesn't count. Builders don't count. etc. yep.
Battle pass is aa $100 worth of packs spread out three weeks...
More actually since you get officers and other 💩
there was also that promo where you bought a 5 dollar purchase you got 5 bucks back
so was essentially a free builder
Um... when
Scopley should make this default instead of 50 🤣
Have to have the community mod to get those kind of numbers
Can we not sync event types. Probes yesterday then today. 🤦
1M 😮 lol
Lvl up your alliance 😛
There's multiple Borg events today, at least, along with hostiles. You can knock them out together.
There's only so many things to shoot in this game. Stuff's gonna repeat.
Probes cap at 58 and its pointless
I am not staying don't repeat it
I am saying running the borg stuff on the ssme day
Didn't think i was talking a foreign language or anything over complicated
Sums up the poor state of the game really
No need to be rude.
I thought if I buy a new research slot, that would increase my treasury rewards already? Has that system changed? 😵
if it was during the window, which hasn't been a thing for a while
Have you bought that before or after treasury started?
I do not know exact amount you need to spend to have Treasury upgraded to better rewards, but once it starts it is locked, the rewards do not change
Doesn't matter what you spend now, it has to be a $99.99 rod
was there a code for this arc?
<@&509690795536941056> 8 hours later, yet still nobody has answered to that. 🙄
I started in december and have the bigger treasury without buying a rod, is this a more recent change than that?
When the treasury was first launched, they ran the sorting script to grandfather everyone's "spend level." That's from design.
I've seen lots of players on newer servers since then that have made your anecdotal claim too, and that leads me to believe that newer servers get the same sorting script at some point. That's not from design though, and just reasonable conjecture.
The other bit of information is also from design: you can only move up in spend level by buying a desealing rod from the cash shop.
I am ready to tier my gorn envisorator to t8 was wondering if when t8 do u losse the 4 star ship parts chests or do u still have them
I'm on the mission "The All Seeing Eye" that says to intercept 6 Cultist Transmissions. I cant find anything on STFC Space as to what the heck this even is? Anyone?
How do I contact a moderator here concerning the alliance recruit feature?
thank you scopely for being my grandfather. or something like that
<@&509690795536941056> what happened with hazard resistance?
visual bug
Look for Eternus Messengers (it's an interceptor) in Nameless Horror hazard systems. Kreonta is one for example.
I'm confused as to what you are saying. I have a T7 eviscerator and no 4* ship parts in the refinery. So not even T8 and I don't have them.
I'm ops 66 though. Maybe the ops level is affecting it? I have 6* and 5* in my refinery for ship parts.
ops 61 4 star parts go away from evisceratir refinery period
At ops 61+ and t7+ Eviscerator takes away the g4 parts
Ah, that explains why I don't see them.
@heady moon just wanted to give my feedback for the arc thus far. I'll start with the positives first
- Event store has some good additions like Lorca, Lorca SP, and Prime Orbit particles
- I love that mission keys give event store loot (unlike last time) and the new meta gives a really good amount as well
- I like the solo waves event to get extra solo creds and now some Prem dust
Now some gripes I have
- As much as I'm a fan of more waves, I hate that you need the new ship to do it unless you're ops 70 who don't even need the ship. It's not that the ship makes its easier, the content makes having the ship mandatory.
- Despite an official rep of Scopely saying they'd look at sourcing of ships, the new ship is a 100 day grind which not only is the opposite of what that representative said but also is counterintuitive to Scopely's goal to push us up ops. These ships are necessary for growth and players are going to stop moving ops til they get those ships.
- The new ship's refinery for ship parts isn't what was advertised as "the top source across all grades" this statement is only true for g6 players otherwise Gorn Eviscerator pays out more rare ship parts which are what we care about below g6 as uncommon and common ship parts are easy to get. The common and UC parts are just marginally better but again not the parts a majority of players actually need.
- Why doesnt the new ship give extra solo waves starts akin to what the NSEA Protector did with MU last year, seems odd to exclude it
- Lastly, it's month 2 of apex shred being released and we already have access to a total of 325% that essentially eliminates 77% apex barrier. That's too much PvP shred in 2 months

probably the crew u are trying to use, is on ship needs to be repaired
indeed, but the message is not helpful
thus it is a little ux problem

How do this? Or do need money?
is there going to be another mission ? or this a bug on this new event ? for there's no mission to fin the event 🤪

@heady moon hi, isn’t the survey a bit premature? Being asked to state which additions we enjoyed and which didn’t meet expectations is a bit silly which the arc is barely 28 hours old. Most won’t have these new additions. I’ve abandoned completing it since I can’t comment on 99% of it since I haven’t experienced them
I think its safe to say no one enjoys the new ship
And even less the new elite solos
They always ask early and then send it out again at the end.

Now that I've got it to work I'm enjoying it every 6 minutes or so 🤣
Any every time, nobody notices the pattern. 🤣
still sucks lol
That’s just plain dumb
and that refinery is just a big lie
Not at all. It lets them compare first impressions against what players feel after playing with the stuff for a while.
Super common in user research.
Though, it's usually more discreet.
Given last month's waves were just as hard as they are now, not much diff expected at the end this month either.
Refinery is not a lie.. It just isn't going to be great day 1 without cash.... Same as every single piece of content they put out
the thing is, even at maxed tier for G4 and G5 the gorn refinery is better
so it is a lie as they said it would be the best source for ship parts
This ship was obviously for G6 players...
so?
If it were, they'd price the packs better to get it to that level. It's G4/5 but the feature is certainly scaled for the higher end of those.
So if you don't think it is worth the cash don't spend it
I filled out the survey. I can only assume you will trash it. I did not say nice things about this update and the new ship. It’s not as advertised and the ship is hot garbage.
It is funny as hell that they show cased it at tier 12 tho 🤣
Everything in the survey is pay only content. Kinda dumb to send it out the day after the release.
I mean they are pushing everyone into G5... Most should be there anyway.
G4 was a breeze to move through except ops 49-50...
@little violet Why pushed to g6? I definitely wouldn’t get it it’s worthless?
They are giving players all these materials and they still aren't moving which is probably making Scopely wonder what the hell is going on 🤣
Arena shenanigans
I mean what is the point of having rank if it means nothing..
gotta hold plat for like 6 months to max pull dust I think
Only thing I wanted rank for was the G6 cost efficiency and the relativity made that useless So I don't care anymore
I've two players on my server who said "thanks for the mats!" and stayed at 49. They don't want to enter G5 from all the horror stories.
G5 is fine now with all the stuff they've thrown at us
G5 was cake till 56.. Now they made it even easier giving rare earlier ... Revenant giving loads of rss. They have it easy now..
49? i know a few who are still camping under 39 and they have been playing this game from year one 🤦🏻♂️
Oh, I know it is. But I can't convince them. They fully believe it's horrible without touching it.
G5 is super easy.
G4 and G5 is pretty easy.. Actually G6 is as well if you pace yourself 🤣
Pacing is the problem when those around you are squishing you like a bug.
Does anyone have an updated listing of the breakdown of faction message by rep. I can only find older ones that only go up to the 15 bil lock.
I'm a new player will someone help me figure this mission out
I can't find the location

Is there a spawn chart for elite solo waves?
check the chart posted above your message, there are crew suggestions too 🙂
it's not my chart, but I don't think you can be hacked via google charts tbh 😄
It isn't my chart either, it's from a CC discord and basically contains just about all the relevant information about solo waves such as positions, crews, rewards with links to videos by CC giving more in depth info
because there's no "best" crew, also it would be long process to determine which officers you do or don't have
Its a google doc...
Put 2fa on your discord account then you have nothing to worry about.. Even if they get your password they can't log in..
2fa isn't even needed as they don't need to log in or anything to acces said information
And indeed, I haven't the foggiest what your ops is, what ships you have, what crews you're using,... so it's near impossible for me to tell you what crews to use
He is worried about his discord account.. So what I said is relevant ....
well there was an issue with false links on discord, that were not leading where they pretended to... I would have hoped discord fixed it since then though
He wants you to spoon feed him crew ideas instead of reading...
All you got to do is hover over the link and it tells you where it goes.
I mean, I'm willing to post a screenshot from there but I imagine I'd get a spam warning if I posted all the useful information from that place here
yeah, those are strange hostiles in them solo waves 🤷♂️
aside from the new GS-31 ship, don't think there are any ships that would make a difference, just your strongest ones
It would help if you gave us some basic info like your ops and ships
Depending on your ops it's very likely you're better off ignoring elite waves as it is
I'm 63 and even I'm ignoring elite waves 😄
I'm a fresh 61, the elite 50's seem a step up reward wise from normal 50 solo's if I use a max fort (or when I boost my ships at the next mat event)
Besides hostile strength the sheer amount of mobs is also a bit of a hassle without the new ship to beat some, can't even use my cube beam
they are a step up only if you can finish them though or at least W4 and I'm not optimistic about my chances against those new reavers
I'm skeptical the ship'll be useful for me within the next half year

i see that these Solo waves are reducing our Crit by 300-350% so trying to find a way to offset it all
50% free though In the MU tree
Max crit floor atm is 400% iirc

For visual
We likely will get more crit floor in the form of a fleet commander in the coming arcs , as soon as they figure out a way to lower crit floor 😆😆 call it "true crit damage reduction"
Isnt there already an artifact that does that for pvp?
Its a biblical cycle for scopely, add something everybody wants/needs, make it so powerful it needs something to nerf/ balance it out, rinse, repeat. Ie iso damage was getting ridiculous in fights so they added apex barrier , apex barrier was getting too big in fights so they added apex shred. It is the way it's been this whole time
Hrm. Crit floor... Makes me wonder if the next research/etc. will be for Apex Floor...
Doubtful since there's no Iso floor
Hrm... iso floor...
I sense two new multi-level primes in the work.
For the small small price of $100 per level.
Crit floor was the solution to the insane crit damage reduction in the game, they just had to add a hostile to justify the floor , there isn't insane iso reduction yet so don't see the need for a floor
we got a while before iso mit or iso reduction gets strong enough to overcome raw iso dmg at least
There's also no Crit Chance floor.
yo i head you like counters, so we made a counter to your counter to your counter 😆
JW pocket watch on base defense can 0 iso dmg.

Nice announcement but what about us G4 and G5 players who bought the ship but not additional upgrade packs, that is completely useless due to the Elite wave balancing?
Only people reporting beating the lvl 45 elite waves are OP’s 56+ with G5 epics…which seems broken since the 45 waves are supposedly G4
@heady moon If Scopely wanted to sell more packs they would change the available pack to what it was before. I for one am certainly not going to spend now knowing people who bought in quick got more

<@&509690795536941056> any chance for future new events, or being added to event store that award Classic Tricorder or Glavin artifact shards? There must be a lot of people close to an unlock of those.
Whoo hoo praise all that bought packs, you get extra because Scopley messed up while the rest of the player(the majority I might add) still get nothing from all the bigs and glitches
while you’re at it relativity in event store pls 🥹
Probably still too new, hopefully be in the next event store.
I have been asking for Glavin events religiously.
was hoping they got added to S31 faction store, but at this point I'll take any sourcing
that reminds me, need to tier up my glavin… no idea where i got it lol, when i finally bothered to max my ara it turned out i had enough shards for unlock
Do peeps want Classic Tricorder or Glavin artifact shards in the next event store? I could ask.
That would be amazing!
any sourcing for them would be appreciated. S31 faction store, alliance tournament store, end-of-arc event store, regular events just to give ideas
Still missing sourcing for saltah'na clock, geordi' visor, zalkonian storage capsule, classic phaser, emperer georgiou's sword, sarek's vulcan necklace
My ticket complaining about the ship and asking for a refund was responded to with boilerplate support. They responded to a single follow-up question with more boilerplate and closed my ticket. They "assured" me they watch discord for feedback about the ship.
any information about when they are going to address the generalized lag of the entire game since the update?
Yes please. Also the uncommons that have no sourcing currently (Geordies visor/etc).
support replied to me by the next morning and added my event points
@solemn plaza
Which event points? The “nearly” impossible to complete elite waves?
the new missions event where is was stuck at 50/75
I got tagged and I don't know why.
does it sound right from our convo earlier
The Prime crit floor is a good investment fullstop.
It'll help with a bunch of stuff other than the new waves. It's a pretty solid research especially since it's F2P
Random Question - Im guessing its a bug, why does wave 2 of Elite Solo Waves always die instantly?
Mostly F2P over time
It's entirely F2P. You don't need to buy anything to get it.
Final prime one requires special medallions I thought
the MU Prime ahs no free path yet
Yeah the Prime Omega Crit floor is $$$ only.
Im.in same boat
But the Prime Crit floor is either $$$ or you slowly get it for free from Silent exchange or now the event store.
Getting it F2P is a good move.
i think thats why its in the event store as scopley know we need it but wont physically tell us that its needed 😂
You can get 100% crit floor easy for free from ex borg favor
You can also get 100% for free from the prime and 50% for free from the Omega MU research.
Yep true
nah you don’t want that, once you unlock them they just cost disruptors to upgrade, gate them in a faction store and you’re stuck spending that faction’s currency to unlock. event store way better option.
I need a prime for 3x times the vindicator ship parts then we get now, I’d actually buy that one
elite solos should be it's own cipher on a separate timer
Elite solos ?
The realta skin's in the store as well as the enterprise mining Crew
Also what about giving The damaged enterprise -d Skin away again?
the new ones to this month
Better pathing for actual acquisition beyond buying a pack from the start and hoping for it months and months later to maybe be a thought for an event store 🤷🏽♂️
i vote to just stop introducing things in the game without some idea of how that will be implemented for the f2p crowd, even if it initially isn't available for them
Would also be nice to go back to ships not needing three months to acquire, usually meaning its content has already become abandonware to Scopely in general by the time people get it ftp, then get it to where it’s actually usable for their ops.
Only game I know of where “new content” now means three months later if you don’t drop $100
i think it was the manits? that was changed a few times before f2p had a chance at it - basically the whales paid to iron out the mechanics
already tried saying that, 😅
new refinery we cant use because we can only do 1/5 waves every 3 days when the ciphers off cooldown
Vindicator: abandonware, weekly event exists to give it a loop it never had, progression is probably among the slowest grinds ever introduced.
Relativity: haven’t seen anything around it and formations since intro.
Archive: made to cover the abandoned and overly old specialty ships.
Nsea: progression again so slow without dropping money that people are finishing or finished with the common/uc/rare/epic mirror dust researches and even the Nsea researches before getting the ship to t10.
Eviscerator: another painfully slow grind for the utility it had a chance to offer. Refinery exchanges don’t have any value for g6 until tier 14, and by the time you get it there ftp it has no value because it has no rare g6 parts.
Vindicator is a failed ship. The Refinery is only marginally redeeming but the ship has no practical use because of how small it is until you reach the highest tiers.
It basically needs its refinery multiplied like the new 4* refinery options. @heady moon
The vindicator takes way too long to tier up however I like it, the refinery is helping me get all the fleet commanders without buying them and it works great for armadas. The only downside to me is not getting enough parts and not seeing the parts available in the event store is even more disappointing
From what I remember, it was promised to fairly easy to tier up but it has horribly missed the mark. I don't go out of my way to get extra parts for it because, other than tiering it up for the refinery, the ship is useless. They didn't really think it through. I don't want to do high level G6 armadas and have one of the ships dying every time. That slows me down.
Well I’m still in g4 which might be why I find it more useful for armadas but yeah the tiering up is plain ridiculous
I'm level 64, had it from the beginning, and it's never once been useful as the ship functions. It's the lowest tier of all of the recent speciality ships because parts are so scarce.
That’s why I don’t understand why parts are not in the event store but the bps are, makes no sense
NSEA, Relativity, Eviscerator....all much better ships with better refineries or linked factions.
I enjoy all those ships and the nsea at least has spheres in the event store which is nice
If they put Relativity parts in the event store before I ops gate it I'll be very happy.
And this is what is really frustrating about new ships, there needs to be some sort of accelerated or extra refinery for higher ops players just so it gets to be anywhere near useful in the ways it’s designed for.
By the time most of us get it to where it’s even usable on g6 solos, where it actually would have use and utility just from its hazard resistance, we will likely be done with g6 solos and onto the next thing that it can’t help with.
Precisely. The newest ship won't be useful in the slightest to a G6 player for a very long time.
But don't mind Scopely. They are laughing all the way to the bank with our money.
Not mine, not buying a solution to a problem they just introduced alongside the ship.
Oh darn, I don’t do epic super elite mega solos. Meh.
Im a long way from g6 but its not great to hear how useless some of the specialty ships are at that level, doesnt instill alot of hope for their prolonged usefulness
Well, I'm a fool so count me in the pool that Scopely fleeced. I submitted a ticket about it and essentially brushed me off and "so sorry, get lost"
They just take too long to tier up.
I get that, it feels painful for me waiting to tier them up, I can’t imagine how much worse it is for you guys
Nsea still can’t reach a decent hostile because of warp limits, meanwhile, I can grind the lvl 70 traders with my normal ships by the hundreds before my timer expires. I only use the Nsea enough to get its own particular super special loot for one subset of the refinery, then ignore it the rest of the time.
My Relativity is still in G5, and it's almost 2 weeks of pulls for 1 component upgrade.
Relativity is a nice anomaly because with its researches it becomes stella-like on rewards, so as the alliance unlocks it the refineries will actually get easier for everyone.
@heady moon Do you have a timeline for the G6 freebooters that was on the roadmap?
Probably going to be with G7 release next month is my bet
Revenant only has decent progression for the second wave of people getting it because the first wave can carry them through high enough starts where the chests can provide accelerated pulls vs what the early adopters had to deal with.
Most of the upgrade components come from the daily pulls. The formation stuff is a nice "bonus".
Oh yeah, Revenant is also a great ship
It could do what it was designed to do right out of the gate
Eviscerator is just sad and bad for progressing,and will never live up to its potential. Even the tournament store parts will only get you 1-2 parts on a tier, and then you are left spending what feels like weeks getting enough for another part.
I also LOVE the revenant refinery.
Agree. And the NSEA is great in the 40’s, but can’t comment above that
Rev refinery is great
And again, its refinery never delivers rare g6 parts
I like the NSEA as well. Vindicator had so much promise at the start but they designed it completely wrong and won't make up for it.
Again, didn’t spend on its loop or researches, I’m done with them, ship still isn’t t10. Other than the premium dust and few tier locked things the research tree is done. Ship itself isn’t even worth using for its Sunday event.
Either did I, but at OP’s 46 and now 48 it’s great for Arena, fast PvP hunting and grinding parts in MU space
Why does it seem like most of the specialty ships are great through ops 50 but then start to have diminishing returns to bother tiering up or even using? Nice that they work well for us 40’s players but all the time that goes into tiering them up seems like their usefulness should last way longer
I still won’t use mine for solos, but the big difference in payout if we can get a whole leg filled with just the ship on a formation makes the ship bps and weekly exchanges part of the loop so much easier.
Don't have that yet, but I know G6 freebooters is a popular topic.
Okay, I'll say this. The game is fun. I love the economy. It's my favorite aspect. I love the intricacy and how various components affect one another. I'm not a fan of abandoned pieces of the game like Rogue, Franklin, etc...
But on solos, blyech, basically have to drop down to 64s if I use it and waste time repairing it and bringing it back out between each hit vs just tanking 68s with my normal ships
A lot of them came out when ops 51+ weren’t a thing, for one.
Oh that makes sense
I'm guessing, though, that pieces relegated to the Archive are not ever considered for future upgrades. That's reasonable but disappointing. I do love the Archive, though.
I mean…… most things don’t get any attention past their intro arc, soo…….
True. Scopely has stiff competition so they need to keep rolling out the new shiny object. I get it, but it detracts from pieces of the game some of us really enjoy.
I also love how wave systems get harder and harder to differentiate because now they are all blue except the newest and latest greatest set of systems 🤦🏽♂️
Hanging chest claims is a real issue
And that’s the absolute backwards thinking that has shrunk the player base.
Stop the constant rollout of the next thing that invalidates the previous thing, and FIX PROBLEMS
Haven't used mine in solos for a while either. But the daily claim for parts is essentially free.
You aren't thinking like a game monetization company. You build something, get people to spend, keep them spending, bring in new users as old users roll off. It's a system. The goal isn't to create a great game but to create something just good enough to keep people addicted and spending.
I’m skipping the gs-31 for now, will take the slow route because I can’t find a good reason to get it. Was kinda excited at first of the thought of having a ship loop with a refinery that would give more ship parts than ever before but then I saw the charts posted and got disheartened quickly
Design in an actual endpoint and change to loop refineries and rewards once you reach the end. Titan and cerritos refineries should not keep dropping ship parts well after the ship is maxed or research particles after researches are all done.
The only way we have any control over the system as users is if we vote with our credit cards.
The game isn’t rolling over new players as quickly as it has lost them
But if we stop spending, they close down the game and move on. They have many other sources of income.
Yes, I'd expect STFC to last 2-3 more years before it becomes a ghost town.
If we don't spend, they don't care. They just build the next thing with the same concept and fleece more people with poor quality products.
If they can get a user to spend just a little bit, they've won because statistics show they are substantially likely to keep spending.
They trap you in the sunk cost fallacy, believing if you don't maximize what you've bought, you are wasting it. This keeps you in the game more. You get FOMO and want to spend more. They pit you against other people vicariously, generating more FOMO.
managed to beat wave 4 of the 50 elite waves.... I'm 62 🤪
what exactly is shadowbanned
Congrats you seem to be doing better then most 😜
I can do 5/5 on elite 50
Well, I should be shadowbanned.
If I can get into position to hit fast
It means you think everyone else can see what you say but they can't and you can't tell the difference. You essentially just talk to yourself without knowing any better.
It's a cruel form of banning people. Happens all the time on Reddit.
it's meant to combat bots but ya using it vs people is cruel
if ya gonna ban someone just ban em 😄
shadowbanning isn't a discord thing
admins who do it usually do it for a power trip because the end user usually can't tell.
Thanks. I wasn't sure.
you can mute someone though 😄
it's a reddit admin thing used to combat spam, and probably on a few other social media sites idk
It's used a lot on people who dissent with admin.
crit dmg floor and iso dmg make big diff vs the solo wave hostiles
shrug idk. I quit using reddit other than as results when I googled things, back when they messed with the API for apps
so by beating 4 waves of 50 ELITE solo I get more solo credits but less mirror credits 😢
So does having the new ship.
vs beating 5 waves of normal 50 solo
I have the new ship but at tier 1 it's only good for it's debuff really
working on the research... whale on my server says the ship isn't worth buying packs for
he has it max
Syndicate event at reset tomorrow 😄
mirror research when 🤔
Probably tomorrow.
mirror research usually is on weekends isn't it
Idk I don't pay attention since all my regular-epic mirror research is done
I'm only ops 56 and it would prove very useful for me in the elite waves.
well I'm at 62 where I'm too small to do the 60 elite and the 50 elites I maybe could beat the last wave if I tiered it up a bunch but meh
the 60 elite should really be 65 elite
can't finish the missions cuz of that 😦
I just timed the beam wrong but with the right timing I'd be able to do 4 waves of the lvl50 elites.
I timed it wrong still too but with omega crit damage floor I still killed all hostiles on wave 4
but then wave 5 obliterated me cuz no beam 😄
@heady moon nice! Instead of giving us 5* ship scrapping, Scopely does another cash grab with another ship. Glad they still love doing quantity over quality.
Lag tonight for anyone else?
G5 scrapping would make me max my uncommons and maybe my crozier lol
Hmmm, all of my 5* are maxed.
You must have done those for the slb.. Not worth the trit investment right now
Pretty much.
I scrappedmaxed 😛 my sanctus last arc.

<@&509690795536941056> has the Claim All button in Archive, not giving TP been adressed yet? its not 100% of the time that it dosent, but like 80% of the time, so alot of us has been screwed over by it, and alot of posts about it in #👾-bug-reporting.
where do u report these clear dm spammers/scammers here?
pm me the message
Does Yuki work with Borg Sphere solo armadas ?
captain ability does, officer ability does not, much more useful officers for borg solos
captain ability does ? Draining shield ?
that would be great news 👍
can you pour some coffee on the servers please?
it does, but there are much better officers suited for it
not for me, I'm ops 28 atm 😄
can only hit with Vidar
I'm pushing 15 😆 will probably take me 2 days run clean out of speeds
about to dig into this chicken kiev
every time i see those colours together i wanna play Cyberpunk 🤭
Do I need to contact support for not getting points for the mission completion event? Got 50/75 and all missions completed
@queen jolt
Thanks
Ni hao!
Should I report the mission issue or is support already aware?
check your DM
Thanks
What are the seska exocomps doin, are they good for solo waves?
I already asked in rev deuce channel and noone knew
Solved, its max seskas abilities
Bonuses equal to max seska abilities, you don't need to have her on the ships.
Wonder which one of tge exos is better for wave, i will find out
You could use both for better performance even.
True

Does unlocking a ship with an SMS event (e.g., Jellyfish Brawl) immediately unlock it if it's going on already, or do you need to have it built before it starts?
#⭐-official-announcements message what am i missing, pack still offers 20k parts which is not enough for t5
🤭
How do I get the data pads to get past ascendency 10.1?
where are u suppose to do this section 31 mission theta? I cleared 1 one elite wave on astif elite solo 45 and it doesnt apparently count?
two times i have cleared it and mission is at 0
do you have the new ship? did it survive the 1 wave?
ugh.. right.. with a new ship. lol
no ship no event ^^
yeah not spending 100 dollars for that 😄
you d need more then 100, the ship must survive the wave
and t1 isnt strong enough for g4 elite waves
i can kill them with my other ships, i would leave it just to float there 😄
Suppose thats one way to get people to spend 200 on a ship instead of 100
i prefer spending 0 on the ship and waiting 3 months
when is the mirrior upgrade event, is it today or tomorrow?
indeed. its always "fun" for few times when new ship comes out, and then the usage for it just melds into everyday grind
How to complete this
Go to the Exterior view of your station. You'll see another small station next to yours. Enter that. Do those missions.
this one/
Yeah
thank you ❤️
NP 🙂
Is there a event calendar posted yet
:/take_quiz
I gave up on that over a year ago..
It's a Pain
remove :
hmm no lower cost Desealing Rod Available in Store, and Desealing Fragments where increased for this Chest it seems this time around lol sad...
Realised what I was doing wrong, didn't help with the answers though 🤣
fr buddy im trying,so mucj
What?
Broken rodes have always been a standard level,
From overflow or 7 day Chest's,
It's always required 4 k of broken rods to aquire the Treasury..
I couldn't honestly remember so.. yea I know where to get them.. the mean thing is that i have 3560 Broken Rods, and 4k are needed.. with 3 day's of the Treasury left theirs practically no chance to get the remainder atm, even if their was 1 Event Daily in that time that gives 360+ at the end, unless their where 2 somewhere in this timeframe... for the Loyalty Chest im 3 Weeks out of getting enough for get a few more 😅
Just bad timeing with the Treasury atm...
but normally one could get a Desealing Rod in the Shop for 22 Euro's, but the only one in their atm is the 100 Euro one currently lol.. definatly not going to spend that much...
They start off cheap, but once you buy one it's forever at the price of a normal pack. On the upside, it does increase the contents quite a bit as well.
The desealing rod fragments come from 30d boxes and completing the overflows for BPs (including most between-arc flash BPs). It's likely you'll have enough for the next one.
/take_quiz 18
I'm sure, some broken rods have been in spot event and as a standard milestone reward
They have, I’ve seen them and done them, but as to when is another thing 🤣
I have never seen them from anything other than the 30 day boxes and overflows.
Someone have the leslie aquatics graph? Keep losing it
Say has anoyone else had a problem gettin In Plain Sight part 2...new mission for this arc?
I did complete part 1, but did not get part 2
Hummm...courious...is it a bug or will it come out later?
another what??
It's deleted now, there was a Steam Wallet scammer post.
ConBUGulations 🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️
There's nothing to do. They won't cancel Trailblazer, and I've never seen them lower an endtime. Just make sure you get enough pts to finish the bp, there's more than enough available even with a partial SMS.
you have seen them extend an endtime. We all have, usually monthly...
does the TC timeframe end when the last available one can be completed?
Nah, they don't extend endtimes either. They'd need to delete the current one and make a new one with longer time. The bp already has scoring in it, they aren't deleting that.
Has anyone noticed an issue with the store (Xolla) or is it just me?
Nice a lucky on Sam
TERRITORY: we have gorn service now....activating it doesnt activate it and it takes mats.....this a bug???
Are the only way to score points for the solo elites is to have the new ship? It has it in the description, but I just want to confirm if I can still complete each one without the new ship.
stfc.wtf
The only way to score in the solo elite events is to have the new ship and have it survive the correct # of waves.
However you don't need the new ship to complete elite waves if you are strong enough. It just doesn't count for those specific events that want the new ship.
Thank for the info
No problem. I'm ops 66 and can complete the G6 solo waves with no problems. I don't have the new ship. I can complete the G5 elite solo waves and get more Solo loot than from the G6 solos. I die in wave 3 of the G6 elite solos (no point in doing those for me). So I'm sticking with the G5 Elite solos.
@heady moon I got the GS31 accelerated upgrade pack and it did not get me to T5 still short of it. And I just got it this morning. Shouldn’t that be fixed?
I believe they credited those that bought it early when it said Tier 5, now it’s name changed to just the accelerated tier up pack.
It still said t5 on it when I bought it
Was that after the time stated on the post linked above?
who cares.....quit changing stuff to steal money
Can anyone say what is going in with TC ... we know things will change next season, so why are things changing now ... no talk, no blogs , just lost tc buffs and stuff
nobody is answering
we are wasting mats it seems for stuff that isnt working, like the gorn service
Gorn service is working fine 🙂
ours is new to our land and isnt working
Not usually a ship buyer, but I bought this one. I actually like the solo waves. But the ship is essentially useless at Tier 1, level 5. So as an Ops 47, can complete Wave 1 of the 45-Elite, but then get destroyed. Little disappointed the ship really doesn't do anything until it gets to a much higher tier.
I see the design department have been working on font and things
It obviously has OPS limits.
Below that ops cant see it
If your talking new ship ... I've found worst they have bought out , I'm ops 65 , bought ship and a pack , still only t3 ship ...not useful at all... hamster said some people get a bonus from scopely if you bought at certain times ..
it says unavailable at this time......from our ops 70's and below
That means the service is not activated
Love it!!!! Can't even send a ship out to hit hostiles......
its a simple service that we use mats on the last few days and nobody can spend on it(TC)
The service is activated and takes our mats, sheesh
if u dont know, dont answer pls
Game stability still seems very poor today
