[slow isle]

one of the worst thing Scopely ever did in my eyes was removing the requirement for a g3 epic to go to OPS40. That pushed quite a few people forward who are def not ready

[proud verge]

How is that rebalanced you're still getting rolled over at wave 2 either way

[jaunty holly]

you have 80 lat, 2 unused building queues and a bunch of research that needs to be done.

[opal meadow]

You should see a L70 Reaver 🤣

[rose sphinx]

As a result, using ships with impulse speeds of 350-450, in elite 50 (which are quite easy for 6-7 B ships) I managed 0/5, 5/5, 2/5

[proud verge]

Well yeah but still you would expect to handle a G4 with a T10 Newton, T8 Protector should handle all ships within the G4 elite solo fairly easily (probably besides the reavers) instead I get 23mil iso hit on wave 2 because of 51 prowlers

[jaunty holly]

whats your iso def at?

you might need some more territory research / artifacts

[proud verge]

172%

[jaunty holly]

not bad, but could be better

[jaunty holly]

also, do you have any of the WD perks from s31? i am finding they help a bunch in the 60 solos

they were useless in the low level waves, but actually have an impact in the solos

[stark fjord]

in 2 days I will be getting over 10 days 430k common g5, 130k uc g5, 34k rare g5, 4500 epic g5 880k common g4, 250k uc g4, 69k rare g4 and 13k epic g4 that should be enough for a few weeks to catch up alot now I just need a few dozen million lat and I will be set

[solemn plaza]

And you should save like 90% of that for your G5R.

[jaunty holly]

finish those shreds, they are huge

[opal meadow]

Can i get the sigma speedups 🤣

[proud verge]

Just leveled all 3 to 4

[jaunty holly]

i think your problem is misplaced materials, you probably got stuck upgrading things that were not helpful but "had a green marker to level up" you really need to check a site like spocks club or jump in one of the CC's and see if they can give you a break down of what your best options are

[stark fjord]

tier 6 of the crozier?

[solemn plaza]

He'll need those next month when he ignores what's been said over past hours and pushes into G6

[jaunty holly]

g6 go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrz

[primal stag]

Well hopefully he grinds MU for those

[solemn plaza]

Either just do T4 or push it to T7. Pushing to T7 would be best.

[jaunty holly]

if he can kill anything in MU...

[primal stag]

I'm currently a tier away from the 61 rep system assuming I use grush (who I hate using on the bridge)

[stark fjord]

what I need to go to tier 6

[jaunty holly]

you need research, not ship tiers.

you're tossing sand at a window, you need a brick

[solemn plaza]

T6 is no good.

If you're doing T6 then push to T7

[shy hamlet]

that's atrocious trit efficiencies

[primal stag]

I assume this is Crozier, personally I didn't go 56 til I had enough to get sanct to at least t7

[stark fjord]

to get to tier 7 would need to scrap at least level 51 newton for the ship parts

[primal stag]

I'd hate to look at your costs for an Epic

[solemn plaza]

Current event store let's you get 2400 Dolamide that you can sink into the prime efficiency research.

[jaunty holly]

my brain is hurting just looking at this in general

[solemn plaza]

Are we really surprised at this point though.

[solemn plaza]

I don't know what hurts more, my brain or my eyes.

[rare talon]

Both

[jaunty holly]

https://tenor.com/view/the-road-to-el-dorado-both-both-is-good-gif-8304204

[stark fjord]

so 225k event store currency for the dolamide

[opal meadow]

Why dont you join an alliance and get help, there will be lots of folk to advise you

[solemn plaza]

His server hates him

[opal meadow]

oh

[stark fjord]

I mean at 1074% tritanium I dont know what others expect

[solemn plaza]

I'm not sure what F2P is on track to earn but if you can get that much then spending it all on dolamide is a good idea.

[shy hamlet]

do i expect over 3k? no, but you gotta get at least 2k%

it all helps

[solemn plaza]

I'm catch 22 on the prime now. Want the lower trit costs but kinda like mats being expensive lol. Makes SLBs easier.

[proud verge]

How long till it's pushed OH? I still see my bundle costing 100k instead of 30k?

[shy hamlet]

you're thinking epics? you need it.

with efficiencies like that i'm about 200T trit into mine

[stark fjord]

for battleship my resarch efficties I got the lower level ones but not g5 or some of the g4 ones

[hot dove]

It was at this point ben knew, he…up

[solemn plaza]

Yeah I'll probably max the primes before I do the epics.

[solemn plaza]

0-12 on the D is 105T trit

[slow isle]

this is me at (fresh)58, so probably closer to you with OPS56 than others

[acoustic orbit]

@heady moon

The auto-scrolling for the research trees isn’t working as advertised either. Click on my combat tree and just sits at the beginning of the tree

[solemn plaza]

Have you done all the research in the tree available to you?

[acoustic orbit]

Nope

[solemn plaza]

Looks like you really need to work on the prime efficiency research. That'll make a massive difference.

[vagrant vapor]

intentional or not, how does even something like epic parts for a ship get into a release? what kind of dev environment are you guys running if someone can edit numbers that have absolutely nothing to do with what you are releasing?

[hot canyon]

@queen jolt revenant refinery not fixed on my end. Still triple the cost for a pull compared to yesterday

[stable kettle]

regarding the announcement: does that mean the more than 3* cost increase for the solo chest single pull with a t5 evo2 revenant was intended?

[proud verge]

You're tagging the off-duty community manager, OH is now on duty

[hot canyon]

@heady moon. Ok, hammy, see above but revenant refinery is not fixed. Costs were tripled on top of contents changed

[wanton laurel]

iphone?

[warm root]

Nokia

[heady moon]

Pinged you

[tough vapor]

350 polygon directives per week is quite nice, especially if we compare to 100 per week as it was earlier.

[warm root]

If your untrustworthy in a faction will they also hit your minors?

[proud verge]

Yes

If they hit your ships when you enter the system, they'll also hit your miners

[warm root]

Boo that sucks

[proud verge]

It's only normal

[warm root]

🤣

[hot canyon]

Thanks! Hit you back.

[tough vapor]

Just get all 3 locked at 10m

[long prism]

Stream Time ...Ship part sourcing has been solved!!!! Or has it????

Lets discuss the mid month patch and what ever else take our fancy!!

On both YouTube and Twitch!

We are live in 5!!!!

https://twitch.tv/itslewb

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwDY4C2GzxA

[acoustic orbit]

Yep

[cold summit]

Mine skipped about when I looked earlier, the shop fraction fractions keeps jumping around as well

[proud verge]

The autoscroll feature is basically a prime highlighter because it doesn't exclude primes

So it skips to the first prime probably most of the time

[cold summit]

I’ve still got alliance error 19 fyi

[opal meadow]

Cant make it but here are my 2 cents worth, the patch is a pile of 💩 Primes that are 💩 and if anyone thinks the GS-31 is the best source of parts must have rocks in their head

[next dagger]

<@&509690795536941056> - so the games been messed up all day. What you listed in your post is just some of it. All it all it was a "sorry we fixed it now and contact customer support" Thats crap....is the GS31 gravitational beam now working in Solo waves? Where is the acknowledgement of that....oh wait its new and you're still trying to sell it so Scopley will just be quite about it....like the broken mantis systems on launch and the broken Kir Shara artifact (still broke btw). bad form, Scopley.....BAD FORM.

[acoustic orbit]

I refer you to my picture… all the pictured researches are complete yet it doesn’t move

[cold summit]

<@&509690795536941056> alliance error 19 (105 dare)

[proud verge]

I'm not much with a picture, you can place that anywhere you want, all I can say is check your app store or google play if there is an update

This is the latest version your app needs to be: 1.000.41759

[acoustic orbit]

Seriously?

Polite way of calling me a liar

[proud verge]

Not calling you a liar, it's just a picture can be placed anywhere

[hot dove]

No app updates on ios today

[silver parcel]

still pending

An apple a day, keeps the update away.

[acoustic orbit]

Well I can tell you it isn’t working for anyone in my alliance and my game is completely updated as for now…

[proud verge]

I've posted the game version, compare it with the version it shows in your general settings

[solemn plaza]

There won't ever be a better 1 shot stop of anything other than packs.

[acoustic orbit]

Don’t need to… @silver parcel just confirmed they haven’t pushed the update for iPhones yet…

[acoustic orbit]

Guessing you are on PC

[proud verge]

Yes and I also was on Android when I was at work

For Google Play the update also has been pushed already

[acoustic orbit]

Figures….

#blamescopely… 🤣

[proud verge]

Nah, that's just Apple

[acoustic orbit]

Nah, then don’t release a blog about a game update until it’s updated for all…

[proud verge]

I will gladly blame Scopely for their shenanigans, but when it's on the app store it's on the app store

[opal meadow]

Apple may not have approved it, they thought it maybe a joke

[acoustic orbit]

Then why did they even approve the game in the first place…? 🤣 🤣 🤣

[proud verge]

@hot canyon You got any updates from Hammy about the solo continuum refinery still costing 3x as much?
Mine is still 100k instead of the 30k it should be

[tepid lotus]

What tier is your ship? My costs are the correct amount.

My revenant is tier 7 and costs 200k/1.1M for the pulls.

[proud verge]

Mark 2 T5

Can't go higher since I'm ops50

[tepid lotus]

Yeah, should be 30k/900k for you.

[proud verge]

The stuff in it is correct tho

Fact checked with Jewels' chart

[tepid lotus]

I'm wondering what it's using, since there's no pulls on the chart that cost 100k

[naive edge]

My res4arch doesn’t jump, am on ios, so am i still waiting for the update?

[opal meadow]

Was a great game back in G3 days

[silver parcel]

ios update isn't out yet.

An apple a day, keeps the update away.

[proud verge]

Beats me, all I know as long that isn't fixed I ain't pulling it

[tepid lotus]

Yeah, it's tough enough as it is getting enough loot there.

[proud verge]

I can get enough for a pull with a 48 1.1

But with the 30k

Else I need to shoot 2-3 of em

[dull mason]

The revenant refinery is easy to do

I just don't bother with it or the Ship, the same thing will happen with the relatively and the S31 Shoebox ship

[quiet steppe]

That’s all well and good but it’s been over a week since the battlepass broke. No real excuse when people are spending money on the game and it takes a week to fix, yet the whales get their issues resolved with compensation straight away

[silver parcel]

lol no they don't

[stark fjord]

when is the galaxy quest officers going in the ultra recruit?

[dull mason]

Probably never

It's a bit of a money maker

[quiet steppe]

Is that why compensation was agreed within hours, yet no suggestion at all about compensation for those that were affected packed with the battlepass?

[proud verge]

They are in the archives recruit

[stark fjord]

I am not waiting 20 more months to get demarco

[dull mason]

I just got her from the last incursion

[stark fjord]

I could get something if we won incursions

[tepid lotus]

I'd spend my stockpile of transporter patterns if demarco was added there.

[opal meadow]

Invasions

[shy hamlet]

there's a SMS and leaderboards for incursions too, you know

[proud verge]

I want annorax in it too

[dull mason]

We definitely need more TPs and officer Recruit's

[proud verge]

But that's probably too soon

[opal meadow]

I'd like to see a Hazard resistance officer

[silver parcel]

because you're comparing two different sets of circumstances

[shy hamlet]

frankly i think it's past time to get 5/11 in transporter patterns

I'd appreciate the strike team epics, too

[silver parcel]

There are many variables when it comes to battlepasses when compensating for an issue, if compensation is even needed given that the situation gets fixed before the event is over.

[dull mason]

https://tenor.com/view/driving-crazy-gif-12828885

[quiet steppe]

Yeah I get it, £99 or £20 that’s the difference.

[proud verge]

BP is also a 99 pack

[tepid lotus]

gifs that end too soon

many of those cars bit it in that show.

[quiet steppe]

BP is £20 for the elite 👍

[proud verge]

But there is also a 99 option

Which makes your point a bit flawed

[dull mason]

Don't google Kitt wrecking ball incident

[quiet steppe]

Not really, who would spend £99 on the BP when a £20 option is available? Where as £99 is the only option for the new ship

[proud verge]

Idk, but there are probably still ppl who buy the 99 option

Why would they still keep offering it every BP

[quiet steppe]

My point being, the big spenders were addressed and compensated at a quicker rate than the lower spenders. As always.

[tired plover]

@heady moon Hey Hamster, was the Revenant pull issue today JUST concerning epic mats? Or was it everything? I did a full set of pulls at about 10am Eastern, want to know if there's anything really worth bothering support about.

[dull mason]

I built the Gorn ship week's ago,
But I still get Gorn BP's 🤦🏼‍♂️
Am I supposed to build a second, like the Stella LoL 🤣

[opal meadow]

You are talking nonsense

[quiet steppe]

🤣 show me 1 example of the nonsense?

[opal meadow]

You sound like a flat earther

[quiet steppe]

Nice resorting to insults 👍

[opal meadow]

Making statement without ANY knowledge of the facts = ?

[quiet steppe]

Ok so show me where what I said was false?

[opal meadow]

Show me facts where high spenders get disproportional better compensation than lower spenders

[dull mason]

https://tenor.com/view/shh-zachary-levi-serious-gif-12366390

[opal meadow]

This a nonsense argument, prove i didn't mail you a letter yesterday

[solemn plaza]

Well you had to spend $100 to get the last comp chest 🤣🤣
(That was a joke btw)

[quiet steppe]

There is no compensation for the lower spenders in this case! It’s not even been acknowledged. 6 tickets have been closed. Was told it would be fixed Monday, it wasn’t.

[opal meadow]

What compensation are you talking about

[dull mason]

Read the notifications 🤦🏼‍♂️

[summer bone]

after clearing localization , the Emerald Chain points have resettet to "1" ...does that fix itself after the dailies reset?

[hot canyon]

I am assuming he is looking into it, but my situation is identical as yours. T5 mark 2, costing 100k

[solemn plaza]

It's a visual bug.

[shy hamlet]

emerald chain looking like it's back at L1 has been happening on and off for a while; a restart or two usually fixes it

[solemn plaza]

T5 MK2 solo chests should be 100k/900k

[quiet steppe]

It’s hindered progress for over a week of basic gameplay, missed out on events. Regardless of who spent what, we all play the same game and issues should be acknowledged

[hot canyon]

They weren't yesterday.

[solemn plaza]

Welp idk. But 100k/900k is the correct cost.

[solemn plaza]

What was it yesterday?

[tepid lotus]

From the previous Revenant loop chart (which was a while back)

[stark fjord]

I want the ahead of the curve recruit chest to choose which officer I get not a chance and to get one I already have unlocked 😡

[proud verge]

I pulled 30k pull not 24h ago

[silver parcel]

had one of my guys complaining that it jumped from 30k to 100k

[tepid lotus]

Maybe it was an error that was "fixed" in the update.

If you look at the numbers, T5 seems to be an outlier.

[solemn plaza]

Probably. Seems like the most likely situation.

[tepid lotus]

A lot lower than the other tiers.

[solemn plaza]

T5 MK2 100k/900k

[stark fjord]

I put a whole moth of work in to ahead of the curve and get an offiver I dont need 😦

[whole robin]

why is the scrapping on G4 surveys so bad 🤔

g4 uncommon gives a much better ratio of parts in -> parts out

[solemn plaza]

Because reasons.

Many reasons.

[whole robin]

g4 uncommon takes about twice the rare parts to max as a g4 survey, but yields about 5x the rare g5 parts

[proud verge]

@solemn plaza @tepid lotus They left the polygon as it was which is also a big outlier

Which is 7k at MK2 T5

[whole robin]

ya they give poly directives but on my Rev it's always the solos I'm short of doing a max pull...

from that new prime lol

[solemn plaza]

Can you SS your polygon?

[silver parcel]

@low nest @proud verge dm me your playerid, so i can attach it to the report

[hot canyon]

I had the 30k as listed in the previously posted chart.

[solemn plaza]

Yeah kinda weird that people getting different costs for the same thing. Half tempted to scrap my rev to see what mine is lol

[solemn plaza]

So it's just the 1 chest that's weird.

[proud verge]

Yep

[solemn plaza]

Ooooh maybe it's an ops thing.

[proud verge]

Had it at ops 46

Had it at ops 50

[hot canyon]

I am ops 62. Gonna struggle getting 700k a week off 52s

[solemn plaza]

Welp that throws that idea out the window lol

[silver parcel]

sollen, dm me your playerid so i can attach it to the report por favor

[solemn plaza]

50k per solo should be manageable.

[silver parcel]

picard bev demarco, you should be able to hit higher than 52

[graceful wagon]

What about for those of us who don’t have DeMarco yet?

[hot canyon]

Will give it a whirl. I have been doing dajash/demarco with vael below

[little violet]

@heady moon Ship parts for the Gs-31 would have been better than the recycled chips....

[covert wharf]

🐵

[near bear]

@heady moon Some confusion in my group. When you scrap the Revenant at max level T5, do you get all the mats back to go right back to T5? Some say yes and some say no.....

[covert wharf]

yes if you apply the skin you unlock upon scrapping

[proud verge]

This is what you get back

[whole robin]

I thought the pack was supposed to give enough parts to get the GS to t5? mine was already t2 and still one part short of t5...

that's after doing the refinery at each tier

[proud verge]

Having MK2 unlocked also makes upgrading it back up also cheaper

[shy hamlet]

if you unlock the refit before you put parts on it, you can get instantly back to t5. i did

[whole robin]

We have also begun to roll out a chest that contains the difference in what the pack provided and the additional ship parts needed to get the GS31 to Tier 5 to players who purchased the GS-31 Tour Pack between April 8, 2025 9:30 AM and April 9, 2025 12:00 PM. I guess I purchased a different pack? 😐 tour pack no longer there I guess

[near bear]

Sounds like i was screwed then. I scrapped earlier today, have the refit on and can only get to halfway thru t3....

[empty osprey]

same happened to me

[dark shadow]

You have to level it up one level after reaching T5 to get the right things. Its super weird. So you scarp at T5 PLUS one level (21). T10 plus one level, and T15 plus one level

[near bear]

Yeah, I leveled it fully. Looks like a support ticket is in order.

[dark shadow]

For sure then!

[proud verge]

Did you unlock the refit before doing the upgrades?

[near bear]

yep

[heady moon]

Pinged ya!

[mystic gust]

Great... Now that the rev refinery is back they screwed up the rest of the refinery?! I now have to click return for every refinement I do! Also I just get a short glimpse on the material I got from the refinement. What the heck?!

[silver parcel]

Set the disable frequent game animations to off, to see your pulls again.

[mystic gust]

What sense does it make to remove those animations but add a click?!

Why am I wondering at all...

[fierce fossil]

is the new claim stuff style permanent?

[mystic gust]

Same 💩 , different maintenance.

[fierce fossil]

cant see what lot was in boxes ><

[whole robin]

@heady moon I thought the GS31 pack was supposed to give enough parts to go from tier 1->5? but I bought one at tier 2 and it didn't even get me to tier5 (I dId the refinery turnins at each tier)

one component short of tier 5 but I should've been tier5 + several components...

ya'll did the switcheroo on the packs?

D:

[opal meadow]

Did you get the acceleration pack

[whole robin]

yes

was the best pack that was in the store

[mystic gust]

This must be one of the worst updates they have done in a while. (And the bar wasn't set very high...)

[opal meadow]

There was a comp chest released today, if you didn't get it i would contact support, but the comp chest did say purchased before the 8th

[whole robin]

the comp chest said they were supposed to have changed the pack I thought

[opal meadow]

not sure why the 8th when it should have been fixed

[quaint tide]

100k per upgrade. Wtf.

[whole robin]

that's why they were sending out the comp chest- cuz they changed the pack I thought

I bought the pack expecting to be T5 halfway to t6 and now I'm not even t5 D:

[opal meadow]

I would have thought so too

contact support

[whole robin]

ya I did

just thought I would bring it to CM's attention because I'm sure someone else understood it the same way- as the pack currently is supposed to take you from tier 1->5

[opal meadow]

If its any consolation its still useless at T5

[whole robin]

refinery

at t6 g6 parts unlock

they massively buffed the refinery today

at t6 g6 rare parts unlock*

[opal meadow]

Rare parts are T5

[whole robin]

are they? 🤔

[opal meadow]

yup

[tepid lotus]

I was under the impression that they weren't going to change the packs.

[whole robin]

their chart shows t6

for g6 rare parts

[tepid lotus]

The comp chest was because the original chests did give the impression that you'd be getting to tier 5, etc. They renamed the packs to remove that impression.

[opal meadow]

Sorry, yes G6 is T6

[whole robin]

oh 🙄

massive jump in g6 uncommon and common parts at t6 too

guess I'll just do single turn-ins until t6 and save my extra turn-ins for t6

[opal meadow]

Parts is something i'm not concerned about at the moment

[tepid lotus]

It's not something I'm concerned enough to spend a ton on the ship vs going f2p on it.

[whole robin]

yeah I wasn't going to spend a ton on it- just one pack 😐

to get it closer to the g6 range instead of months away

[tepid lotus]

I would need a lot of packs to make it worthwhile to me.

[whole robin]

cuz that's a lot of rare parts

I mainly wanted for the refinery... it's already helping in solos though (mainly just the laser though lol)

[opal meadow]

i'm in that stage where i dont intend building any ships for a while

[whole robin]

I gotta wait til tomorrow to do 60 elite cuz I need cerritos buff and low on juice- need the cerritos juice for Wednesday Cerritos event haha

used all my cerritos juice in arenas 🤪

[tepid lotus]

I'm at that stage where I just got nuked in taxes, so need to stop spending for a while...

[whole robin]

you actually paid your taxes? I was reading a bunch of people didn't pay their taxes because they gutted the IRS 🙄

[tepid lotus]

You can not pay your taxes. Whether you can get away with not paying it is another thing...

[whole robin]

xD

that's what I was thinking

less audits cuz they short on staff but to actually just not pay them completely? I think they would notice

[idle gust]

Thanks Scopely for making the game worse. Now i have to open every chest and back button to get out. I think the game is in its last weeks. Why would anyone pay to play this? 💩 🤡

[whole robin]

https://tenor.com/bzio4.gif

[grim thistle]

if its super annoying, can disable frequent game animations to get old style back

i did it for a bit

turned it off whilst doing the refinery dailies

[whole robin]

if you have community mod it crashes the game every time you do an officer pull lol

if doing a bunch of pulls i do on mobile or temporarily turn off community mod

[silver parcel]

edit the community_patch_settings.toml file
place stay_in_bundle_after_summary = false
under the UI heading, default is true. If the toml file is empty, copy the vars file into it

[heady moon]

Looking into this.

[dusk marlin]

which hostiles are considered federaton hostiles

[stark fjord]

next month we will get more latnium that would be the best present for my 7 year twitch anniversary 🙂

[heady moon]

The pack was mislabeled for about 30 minutes when it launched last week. We amended the label so it no longer says it gets you to t5.

[heady moon]

All hostiles in Federation space.

[silver parcel]

federation hostiles have the blue fed next to their name

[dusk marlin]

thanks

[violet mica]

Even at a T7 the GS31 isn’t enough to complete wave 5 of an elite 50 solo. The last six hostiles are ridiculously powerful

[proud verge]

I can't even defeat the 51 prowlers (G5 hostile) they decided to put in the rebalance of G4

G4 now became a hybrid since they put a G5 hostile in there

[dusty elm]

Seems like my ships are taking more damage today. Anyone else notice this?

[tropic sorrel]

Do armada researches work for krenlim?

[silver parcel]

the formadas, yes, the solos, no

[tepid lotus]

Krenim solos are invading entities.

[tropic sorrel]

ah ok

Which researches other than 'invading entity' ressearches work?

[proud verge]

General ship dmg research

[dull mason]

Kren hostiles are a waste of time

[stark fjord]

stupid elite waves

sould have won on that

I over powerd it

[proud verge]

Their iso dmg is mental

[opal meadow]

Power is an ego number

[vague meteor]

power isn't assessed accurately

[coral halo]

@heady moon i would like to suggest that the poweres that be look into expanding the number of Territories. i think that would make the territories a better way to help all alliance reach their goals an advance in game

[stark fjord]

I am doing excatly what the chart says for elite waves

[proud verge]

Look close that their iso dmg is beyond this world

[opal meadow]

not if your iso defense mitigates it all

[queen scarab]

Literally just scrapped mine at t5 lvl 25. Got to t2 and a few upgrades. Solo chest cost now at 100k too. So need 20 lvl 50s a day for a single pull.

[stark fjord]

this what crew I use and the strongest ship is northcutt, then talios then the gs-31 for the weakest ship for the beam

[proud verge]

I manage to mitigate over half of it

Still much tho

For G4 elite solo

[vague meteor]

you don't need to get it to 25, 21 works just as well. it just gives more XP that it costs to get it from 21 to 25

[queen scarab]

All assuming Ben has actually done his research etc finally lol

[opal meadow]

I dont use any of those crews for Elites

[stark fjord]

there is no iso resarch

[queen scarab]

[stark fjord]

that is what the cart says that is what I do they are the smartest people in the game so that is what I got by

[opal meadow]

This one ? https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1PMCmQD9OyvHdwlyNvw-f6x261XYU2Sl1_euroqHmf_k/htmlview?gid=399853771#

[stark fjord]

yes

[vague meteor]

you're not crewing like that for GS-31, it doesn't have that many BD slots yet, does it?

[stark fjord]

only 1

but that dont matter

[solemn plaza]

There's a fair amount of iso research. And there's also Iso artifacts.

[opal meadow]

There is no updated crews for Elites

[queen scarab]

But the smartest people in the game told him so

[solemn plaza]

What hostile is that?

[queen scarab]

Irrelevant

He was overpowering it

[stark fjord]

so I just need 25k apex barrier to get most jobs done

[solemn plaza]

You need about 6 months of account development at your current ops.

[queen scarab]

Thats generous

Probably 18

[stark fjord]

which artifcat is apex barrier?

[solemn plaza]

Show the full image so we can actually see what went wrong.
Power numbers don't mean much.

[proud verge]

lvl51 prowler

[opal meadow]

Try these, SNW crew on GS-31

<@&509690795536941056> Can I please get the Admiral role added (EU130 - 404 Name Not Found)

[queen scarab]

Lies lol

[fierce fossil]

any onether ways for good scores in the chaos tech SLB besides SSR and NX?

[queen scarab]

Grind grind grind

[stark fjord]

I dont have s31 gerogoi remember I dont have any of the epic from the last 6-12 months

[vague meteor]

Annorax's Datapad, Classic Phaser/ Georgiou's Sword / Sarek's Necklace ($)

[queen scarab]

If only they each had descriptions of what they did

[opal meadow]

Section31 is your friend

[terse mortar]

https://tenor.com/view/nope-no-way-gif-24547692

[queen scarab]

Would think his smartest friends in game would have told him all this too

Anyhows. Should i be putting in a ticket about the rev not getting straight back to t5?

[opal meadow]

Depends how you scrapped it, they may laugh

[queen scarab]

At lvl 25. Refit unlocked before upgrading it again

[stark fjord]

s0 $250 to unlock them 4 and that gives you like 500 apex barrier at level one max all of them is like 5500 and cost north of $5k

[vague meteor]

Annorax is F2P

[queen scarab]

Seems quite poor can't get it a few tiers initially at least

[opal meadow]

first, waste of xp, only needs to be L21

[queen scarab]

Just learnt that tbf

I read max t5 so assumed lvl 25. My ignorance

[opal meadow]

21, 46, 71

[queen scarab]

Habit

Max lvl then scrap lol

[opal meadow]

did you apply the refit

what i'm asking is did you do things in the right order

[silver parcel]

don't need to apply it, just unlock it

[queen scarab]

I unlocked it first yes. Then applied it anyway as its unlocked so why not lol

I know its just unlock though

But if its there it gets used lol

[vague meteor]

pretty sure like all skins you need to go into Armory/Refits and hit the unlock button though, which is a step that could be missed

[queen scarab]

I definitely did that

[vague meteor]

what ops are you?

[queen scarab]

Shows a red number that really annoys me so thats always 1st step lol

64

[proud verge]

There is no real proper way to source annorax right?

[queen scarab]

Hes in event store currently no?

[shy hamlet]

annorax doesn't have sourcing yet

it's only been 2 months, so that's not shocking

[primal stag]

I'm gonna have to avoid the mk3 skin for awhile once I get that far, I'm going to save up rare SS rev parts til I can scrap and get pack to like t8/9 and not activate mk3 skin so I can keep the cheaper refines as a g5 player

[proud verge]

Meanwhile S31 officers do have sourcing

[shy hamlet]

frankly that is surprising, but the sourcing is locked behind a paywall for another 3 months or so

[primal stag]

I wish new ships weren't 3 months grinds, it contradicts their goal to get us to push ops if players are waiting for specialty ships so they can progress

[shy hamlet]

i hear ya.

[primal stag]

I have a feeling that a good amount of devs agree with us but the higher ups aren't seeing the vision. For most ships, if it hasn't been bought within 2-3 weeks then a player isn't going to buy it

[proud verge]

They say Moreau is useless?

Atleast that's what the spreadsheet says

[solid kayak]

and what about having after pulling to manually exit what should be basically kicking you out?

[solid kayak]

yes in certain instances reducing certain ability by moreau isnt worthwhile

[faint wave]

"prime start bundle" does anyone know how much you get daily? in other words is it one armada worth of each?

[solemn plaza]

Vs the elite wave hostiles she is yes. Only there to provide synergy for Pike.

[proud verge]

half the needed dirs per day, so per 2 days you get a full armada

[faint wave]

Thank you. shouldn't have to buy it to find out what it has. I appreciate it.

[primal stag]

I believe cause her piercing ability is a static % while other officers that are recommended have stat based increases such as Beverly is % mitigation based on the total defense of officers on the ship. Think of maxing out the stat bonuses on a Cube (960k) and with Bev at t4 you add mitigation stats equal to 300% of 960k Aka 960k x3 or 2.8m extra mitigation stats

[faint wave]

Morreau has enough mitigation for most hostiles. so of course scopely made some with enhanced piercing that is too much for her to mitigate to 71%. usually an snw officer of the correct match to a ship type overcomes this. and some others like doctor , m'benga, paris etc can be stronger. so it isn't that she is 'useless' it's that she is overwhelmed and doesn't do enough to be your best choice.

Picard beverly can be used instead. make sure you put lots of defense heavy officers below

same question, but for sarris invasion

[arctic flint]

https://tenor.com/view/nani-surprised-what-shocked-scared-gif-17557349

[little violet]

So is this another paywalled Whispers event or purchase in the store referring to the event store?

[steep aspen]

20 bps from my protector, would like to know if I need to finish it with the event store or if an invasion is happening this month

[heady moon]

I'm working to try and get a little more of a heads up like we did for the finals. We teased it, then gave a hint before the actual announcement.

[heady moon]

Lemme ask.

[maiden bloom]

Oh, another cash grab!

[little violet]

Not enough of them already ... 🤣

[maiden bloom]

Right! What's an extra one matter!?

[acoustic orbit]

I wonder how much of a cash grab Pokémon Go is/has become since Scopely bought it….

[heady moon]

This will be coming in the interim week at the end of the month.

[little violet]

So 700-900 for the ship... and $500 for events .. Weeeeeeeeeee

[hard knoll]

Seems another Scopely cash grab arc …

[proud verge]

Is it me or is JL Picard (TNG crew) only soureable through transporter patterns?

[steep aspen]

you are correct

[proud verge]

[steep aspen]

better than the officers only in ultra recruit though

[split quarry]

We might have an iOS update by then? 😜

[ashen yarrow]

Does anyone by chance have any screenshots of how much armada direcrives scored on the weekend officer spend event SLB?

[heady moon]

Yeah.... we're still waiting on approval from apple. Jeepers.

[split quarry]

Apple say no to bugs 🐛 😂

Morning by the way 👋

[frank pike]

Oh yay, another “work for it, and then pay for it” reward.

[little violet]

Pay for it then work for it and pay for it again..

[ashen yarrow]

@heady moon Would you be able to assist with this?

[solemn plaza]

You spelt "ignore it a carry on with your day" wrong. 😂😂

[vagrant meadow]

You must buy this before you can have this. No thanks.

[stark fjord]

I just thought of a cool idea for g7 space anomalies its like a go home cannon has a random chance of spawning anywhere in the system and will one hit kill you

[shy hamlet]

that doesn't sound fun at all

[lilac ginkgo]

They've lost their minds!
It's slowly becoming really disgusting, brazen and outrageous what they're doing here (scopley)!

[stark fjord]

but you will also have anomalie restance too 🙂

[shy hamlet]

if it doesn't kill you, it's not really a go home cannon

[stark fjord]

you need good resarch to take less damage so resarch midigates is still chalaging

[shy hamlet]

what's "good research"

[stark fjord]

for your ops

[shy hamlet]

can you explain to me what "good research for your ops" is?

[solemn plaza]

I think you should be the last person suggesting ideas based on having research.

[silver parcel]

Those who had the 100k cost refinery, it should be back to the 30k it was before

[tepid fossil]

Is the cube worth it?

[solemn plaza]

Do this.

[tepid fossil]

How-? I legit don't know 😭

[solemn plaza]

The cube is absolutely definitely maybe, maybe not worth 10% of 100% of the time sometimes.

[tepid fossil]

...What?

[solemn plaza]

Exactly.

[humble orbit]

Cube's garbo until you're late G5, then starts to be useable, and eventually it's a monster in G6.

[solemn plaza]

It's hit and miss. It's pretty trash to start and then it'll become the biggest ship you have.

[whole robin]

I would say 63 before cube becomes really good

[tepid fossil]

[whole robin]

late g5 it becomes about equal to your faction ships

[tepid fossil]

I'm only 30

[whole robin]

lol 😄

[tepid fossil]

Should I still get it? :(

[whole robin]

yes

the research is good

and you will get the parts you need to level it up faster when you get higher

[tepid fossil]

Am I crazy or doesn't it have a refinery or smthin?

[whole robin]

it's only refinery is for it's own parts

[humble orbit]

Plenty of time to get it before it becomes relevant. It can wait, if there are better options for you.

[tepid fossil]

There isn't tbh

[humble orbit]

How fast are you leveling?

[shy hamlet]

if the cube becomes good at 63 i question your choices

[tepid fossil]

I was level 23 about 3 days ago, but my levelling has slowed drastically now that I'm out of latinum

Totally didn't use over 3m latinum to speed level my ops and all my ships

[shy hamlet]

3m lat sounds like a lot. were you using the instant button or just speeding up after the build started?

[humble orbit]

It's fine then. Unless you can level enough to unlock the better ships/offerings, a cube now means you won't have to use ESC on it in future end of arc event store months which might have more of what you need.

[whole robin]

I mean it's usable late 50s but my faction ships are still better

[tepid fossil]

Mix of both

[whole robin]

at 62 faction ships definitely better but cube is ops locked until 63

it's nice for dailies cuz of transwarp tho

[tepid fossil]

Plus there was all the research, plus i did also spend ALOT to get the Mayflower by just bulk buying BPs from the Fed Faction Store

And i spent alot to level up my kirk

I just generally spent ALOT

[humble orbit]

Never use the instant button to build anything, click the regular start button and use speedups/lat from there. The instant button will not use any of your stockpiles in inventory, and instead use lat to buy them all at a horrible exchange rate.

[tepid fossil]

Oh no I misunderstood what you said lmao

I thought you meant the button in the speedup thing

Where it uses all your available things to speed it up

[humble orbit]

3m still seems unbelievably high for ops 30 though. Something has probably gone wrong there.

[tepid fossil]

I did do instant on a few things

Purely cause it was... I think 2am and i was tired and lazy lmao

[humble orbit]

Yeah, that happens. People used to bemoan the times they did a lat ship repair. I've heard of CS reimbursing some, but that's gotta be painful.

[whole robin]

the only time to ever use the instant is on sub 61 tier ups for ships

[tepid fossil]

And i was buying alot of ship components and dilithium cause I kept running out lol

[whole robin]

or on very low level buildings (less than 100 lat)

[tepid fossil]

Can i just say

[opaque crescent]

i just did 2 birds one stone using my ops 62 cube for fed and battleship event which took 2 trips whereas ent or roro would’ve taken 1… if they had the warp range anyway 😅 instant jump makes it easy to not care

[tepid fossil]

Getting the Gas and Ore for the Mayflower

Is INFURIATING

[hot dove]

Building a mayflower was your first mistake

[opaque crescent]

but i’m probs gonna skip 63 ships so guess still got a while before cube is really really good

[tepid fossil]

I like the ship shut up >:(

[shy hamlet]

my point exactly, the L60 cube seems to be plenty, and the costs to t9 a UC feel... unplesant

you can kill L67 hostiles with it with ghrush and the jump directly to them for events or dailies is fantastic

[warm root]

Is upgrading the prime research better than getting a ship to the next tier I'm so confused right now

[opaque crescent]

depends on the prime research

names or screenshots would probably help

[little violet]

Any word on the alliance tournament?

[heady moon]

Nope. But I'll try and get some teasers or hints again like we did for the fnals for the next run.

[dull mason]

https://tenor.com/view/whisper-donald-duck-disney-gif-14127758

you get those free easy in time, focus on your ships and ops instead

[warm root]

Ah okay thanks

[dull mason]

A few early primes are Absolutely free, ( supplies you get from event's/ scrapping ship's later on)
Don't worry about them ,

[stark fjord]

I am going to miss out on 64.8k event store currency from the mission key ams and sms and I will end up getting less than 100k currency total for the month 😦

[solemn plaza]

I've already spent more than 100k ESC 😬

[whole robin]

watch me have to do another event store pull cuz silent pull goes 💩

[shy hamlet]

hey you might have it by Monday then!

[dull mason]

Call a concrete specialist

[silver parcel]

of next year

[primal stag]

I feel that

[narrow isle]

I usually wait for these events to get those. I don’t care for or do the Silent enemy grind for trash chests.🤷🏻‍♂️😂

[primal stag]

Hopefully they add another source of orbits but also there are other primes I'd like sourcing for

[silver parcel]

they're in the event store

[primal stag]

I mean besides event store, personally I don't consider that sourcing

[silver parcel]

better than the drip from the temporal exchange

smh

[primal stag]

[languid elm]

Oh look an iOS update. Um no thank you, I’ll pass on the new bugs, thank you.

[narrow summit]

iOS Commanders!

Don't update, it's a trap!

[split quarry]

Which one?

[buoyant scarab]

After last IOS update, loot chests that you open, display for a very short time and move to inventory. No chance to look at what you earned.

[opaque crescent]

@heady moon put up new notice when ios update that removes the stupid loot box update is available and then we’ll all install latest version 😜

Dont remember seeing that one in the patch notes

[serene drum]

Jeezzz bring back the old screen this new one suks. Again scamely has made the visual worser

[split quarry]

It’s less clicks? People want less clicks 😆

[serene drum]

It's the same clicks... this screen is horrible

[whole robin]

I like less clicks

You dont have to click to accept the output anymore

[zenith coyote]

Pip'n ain't easy

[serene orbit]

https://tenor.com/view/reboot-enzo-alpha-numeric-alpha-numeral-gif-25821782

[opal turret]

So whats the official state? They working on to swap back some animation or they let us cry about it and not care ? 😄

[serene orbit]

I found that this helped me solve that issue (for now) its under Settings > General

[opal turret]

Yes Its in the game for at least 1 year now. Just they added more animation skip this patch now

[serene orbit]

Yes but something within it borked so disabling it for me stopped the issue

[lusty harbor]

And then your newly purchased fix doesn't work, like Kir'Shara. 🤡

[vagrant vapor]

You don't have to click accept, but you have to click back instead. It's the same number of clicks.

Equal number of clicks, less visibility on what you get. I'd consider that a big fail from a user perspective.

[lusty harbor]

It would have been better if they automatically sent you back to the previous menu. Then they would have cut down on clicks.

[serene drum]

I want to see what I get on epic rare unc comm now I see only green 💩💩 @queen jolt @heady moon

[lusty harbor]

They solved one problem by introducing another, as usual.

[serene drum]

I want to choose what screen I want

[lusty harbor]

What they really need to do is add a log of items you've gained, like a battle log but for loot and chests opened, etc.

And get rid of loot chests. It would be an unnecessary function.

[serene drum]

I don't think the do a UAT test on there one developers. This is horrible

[lusty harbor]

I seriously think they see us as the testers, mate.

[feral bloom]

The intention was GOOD, but execution not 🤣

[lusty harbor]

I love your name btw. Scopely has 99% Apex Barrier vs constructive criticism, so be sure to complain 100 times if you want even one request to be taken seriously.

[warm pivot]

wow, didnt know people are this bad at math xD

[feral bloom]

A lot of things should be claimable by expanding that item to a bigger "picture" where one could click how many chests, then that would eliminated the re-screening. And yeah, those rare/epic/unc/cmn items are not distinguishable anymore. THey could may be look at other games how these are done ....

[opal turret]

That was my thinking too... they didnt tested this to see its bad? for real

[long pendant]

done 😅, thx everyone 💖

[serene drum]

Yes the new feature

[strong hamlet]

Thats awesome. Much faster to claim everything 👍

[subtle vortex]

you dont have to click to accept the output, but you do need to click to come out of the refinery option, so the net clicks is identical (affects anything where there is multiple options for how much to refine)

I'm not sure this change has made it any quicker to actually cycle through all the refinery's and stores?

[drowsy cypress]

Aside from leveling up the Command Center and the Fleet Commanders, is there a way to acquire more Skill Point for Fleet Commanders?

[vagrant vapor]

command center refinery for some of them, event store, s31 faction store for sloan, incursion store

like other things, it's a convoluted mess, where everything seems to be placed at random

Do you have to be ops 61 for the second scrap of the Rev?

Vindicator refinery

And support tab on refinery once u have titan. And borg ref

As far as I know Training section

There should be option to toggle which one on/off. not all on or off

Wouldnt mind having static to not show up. But I do want rng results to show so I know what i get

<@&509690795536941056>

[zinc token]

whats that where do i find that

[queen jolt]

yes sir! feedback forwarded to the team (actually I raise a similar request yesterday)

[opaque crescent]

not installing the ios update until they roll it back lol (if game has to go down for territory reset seems easy time to do it)

[dull mason]

Near the daily Task's section top right

[ornate knot]

No you don’t. Just scrap it at T10, at least level 46… then you’ll get your Mark 3 Bundle. Unlock the skin in the Refits Section.

[coral notch]

How does one acquire ISS Jellyfish?

I have one single blueprint of it and I have no idea where I got it from at ops 36. So I am curious... Where can I get more so that I can collect all the blueprints before hitting ops 39?

[dull mason]

Iss jelly Event, which is a really Bad event
Or Armada crates/ Alli store

[ornate knot]

You either participate in the Jellyfish Event SLB - it’s a Mats Spend event… or you get a lot of Epic Armada Loot Credits and you do a regular pull of the Epic Armada Chest. There you have chances to get Jellyfish Blueprints.

[dull mason]

Jelly event is " Rubbish"

[coral notch]

Oh man...

[dull mason]

It's completely trash 🗑️

[coral notch]

Should I abandon all hope to get it through that event and focus more on other ships?

[ornate knot]

Hey some have the blessing of Scopely and actually get a full pull of 120 Jellyfish BP… but that’s just a myth. A Legend.

[minor furnace]

I got that roll.

It will happen

my only lucky ship roll was an ISS

[dull mason]

I got a d'vor that way lol

[ornate knot]

You can get is through the Epic Armada chest Pulls. It will take you a few weeks but you’ll get it eventually.

[coral notch]

Can you give me an estimated time frame?

[ornate knot]

That depends on how many Bps you get per pull.. could be 4 weeks or 20…

Just don’t give up

[coral notch]

5 months... 😭😭😭

[ornate knot]

This games’ a marathon

[coral notch]

Non. Everyone playing this game is a masochist. 😭😭😭😭😭

[minor furnace]

Nah. That is EA Sports games.

[dull mason]

@queen jolt and @pearl mason
We need a brand new Special Ship Armada crate
Containing
Monaveen, Rev, vindicator, Borg cube, iss jelly, NSEA protector
Or a crate with
Voyager, titan, cherrtos Mantis
Etc
Because they are becoming important
It would also be great to get a Ship skin crates

[minor furnace]

Maybe mix in a little 2k gambling too

[ornate knot]

Yeah we are 😹 everyone’s whining and complaining 9-5 — it’s people’s second job here. Yet we all go back to the game and buy packs and play 👋🏻

I absolutely loathe the new way of opening.

It works fine when the reward is just one or two items

I did a full pull on the ultra recruit tokens. Did i get anything good? No clue

I opened 100 chests. Did I get any 15 hr sigma speedups? No clue

[ornate moat]

Don't loathe it but it'll take time to get accustomed to it. One less click that the old way but you could actually read the rewards. Just need the delay before the icons disappear increased by 10 secs

[ornate knot]

Yes. I’m ops 60 and the second scrap at T10 level 46 did not require me to have ops 61 lol

[plucky roost]

Did mat refinery pulls. How many UC and rare did i get? No clue

[warm pivot]

simple answer? between none and never enough

[ornate knot]

Not enough that’s for sure

[plucky roost]

I didn’t think it was possible for Scopely to make the daily opening of chests worse, but here we are

[ornate knot]

The new animation is amazing for the faction store. It’s one item you get anyway so that fly way animation is good. No nasty animated window to theatrically show you that you got 2 faction credits. Click. Fly away. Go away. Click next.

[warm pivot]

but pulling ultras now is finally as exciting as it should be.... just a few popups, no big bling bling for maybe a wortless blue fullpull xD

[plucky roost]

It’s great where the rewards are fixed and known. I hate it for everything else

[ornate moat]

But you are not the entire STFC player base. You may have all the officers. Newer players still get excited about unlocking new officers.

[digital portal]

Very nice, thx a lot 🙂

[warm pivot]

i really think there is an option to get the popups back

[ornate moat]

I really hope so. As @plucky roost said, even on refinery pulls, it's hard to see what you've got before they disappear. If I need x U/C Ore, did I get it ? Have to go and check another part of the game to find out now. New method looks good but it's a retrograde step.

[plucky roost]

Even if it was slower, you wouldn’t be able to tell. The icons are indistinguishable from each other. Did you get 40 rare or UC? who knows?

[ornate moat]

Backgrounds look to be the same. Green for U/C, blue for Rare etc. But it's too quick to be sure 😉

[plucky roost]

Well, maybe it’s just my old slow eyes then

[tepid lotus]

To go back to the old method for the popups, go to Settings/General, scroll down to Disable Frequent Game Animations, and make sure that's off.

[plucky roost]

I didn’t notice the color difference

[ornate moat]

Certainly not. You have a valid point. Speed they disappear at, it's tough to recognise them.

[tepid lotus]

When it's on, you get the flyway stuff and don't have time to really look at what you got.

[ornate moat]

Thanks @tepid lotus

Shame we can't get a balance of old and new though. Like the new animations, just not the rapid speed of disappearing.

[tepid lotus]

I prefer the old way so I can look at my loot. But I can see the draw for it for people that are tired of clicking through a lot of claims.

[plucky roost]

Thanks. What sucks is that it’s good for some things.

I definitely would want it active for fixed rewards

[tepid lotus]

Unfortunately you can't pick and choose.

I'd like it for the mastery claims and the daily claims for resources.

[ionic cargo]

I need that luck, I’ve been pulling epic armada chests for months and only have 22 jelly bp’s, just bad luck with those rolls

[wraith depot]

Just opened a bunch of armada chests no idea what I got. This is unbelievable.

You wanna speed up stuff stop giving us garbage. Stop with the 10 min and 4 hour garbage boxes. Get the garbage g5 outta the g6 armadas. Bunch of rookies. This is what you do. How can you be soooo bad at it?

[ionic cargo]

I admit it’s not great not being able to see what your getting, however I’m very happy with collecting everything in less than 5 minutes instead of 30 or more, I do agree with the loot boxes though, if they just did away with the 10 minute one altogether I wouldn’t miss it at all, need better rewards in the 4 hour one for sure too

[ornate knot]

Yep cut my time down to under 8 minutes. It’s an improvement. Now they have to polish it.

[formal crypt]

Or just... ya know... delete them ?

[plucky roost]

Can we please get a slider for mission key recruits?

[ionic cargo]

Removal would be best, they serve no purpose at all

I still don’t understand why we can’t scrap a vidar and get back nanoprobes for the Talios. In fact you should have to scrap a maxed vidar to get the Talios. My vidar is never used now so just takes up space.

[vale nexus]

Not removing a dismiss click AND reducing the ability to see what the chance pulls results were is an improvement?
After a number of great QOL improvements, this is an epic fail ‘improvement’

[crisp verge]

stupid is as stupid does,,, fix the ships not docking

[lament moat]

I spend approximately 30 minutes every morning just clicking to claim everything. We need more consolidation

[arctic iris]

30 minutes with the new system compared to the 1 hour it took me before is a big improvement

[wraith depot]

It's because half the stuff you have to open is useless garbage. Instead of getting rid of the garbage I get a blindfold. G6 epics are once a week. Not being able to see what you get is completely game ruining

[tepid lotus]

It would be nice to have a system in STFC where you mark all the things you want to claim and click a single button and it claims all the available marked claims at once.

[dull mason]

And 00:00 warp timer's

[tepid lotus]

I've noticed that happens when you click your ship to return, it's warping (and doesn't look like it) then click return again on it.

Have to restart the game to get the timer to show correctly.

[dull mason]

I left the game for 30+ mins it was still lost

[solemn plaza]

You can turn the open chest animations back on.

[wraith depot]

I never turned them off

[dull mason]

We need to have station battle mode,
Like the bridge Slot settings..
But for ship's and crew's

[solemn plaza]

If you don't get the animation when opening the chest then the "skip frequent game animations" option is on.
You can turn it off in settings.

[wraith depot]

Thank you for that good god

[tepid fossil]

Is the Ablative armor Forbidden Tech Good?

[tepid lotus]

Depends on your ship and level.

And research, etc.

If you're low level, and it's the first forbidden tech you get, it's handy. But if you're high level, it's a blip.

I never use it any more.

[charred quartz]

i mean, i turned my animations off and i am now discovering i have to click the '<-' button in order to get out of the specific refine screen so i can move on with my pulls...definitely inconvenient now heh

hovering over the 'escape' key after each pull seems to be productive...

[tepid fossil]

Im ops 30

[frail crown]

take whatever you can get for free....lol

[tepid fossil]

I mean i quite like it

It's helped me with the Q things

[novel otter]

The latest "maintenance" appears to have had 3 main goals.
1 Add more primes, cos you can never have enough primes.
2 Make the new dumpster/ship slightly less useless, but frankly, it is still useless (although if you buy enough packs l'm pretty sure it'll reach the dizzy heights of "almost adequate")
3 QoL improvements!! Yeah right . Seriously, it's great that you try, but how can you read the room so badly? Almost every QoL "improvement" finishes up either not working or just doesn't improve anything!
Isn't there some sort of "players council" you run these "improvements" by? If there is, and they ok'd the latest nonsense, you might as well disband the group, cos nobody thinks your interpretation of how to fix the millions of clicks is the answer. There is more than enough feedback here to put you on the right lines.
Scopely need to make money, l get that, and have no problem with that, but for the love of God, can you actually try and fix stuff as well...Pretty please

[wicked zealot]

So claiming pve chests no longer display the specific ship bps rewarded? Seemed to have started with the last update.

[novel gust]

Ok, is there a way to disable this new item collection display? Stuff I collected used to display on a page that I could hit ok when I was done looking at what I got. Now it displays for half a second and jumps off the screen at warp speed.

Not to mention I can't tell what type of mats I'm getting, common, uncommon, rare, or epic

[solemn plaza]

Yes. Turn off "skip frequent game animations" option in settings.

[wicked zealot]

Ahhh thank you Soap!!! Works perfectly!

[novel gust]

Thanks!

[night frigate]

Please fix the refines

So completely broken

And without auto going back after claiming a refine, 24 hour refines now take twice as long

Scopely can't do anything right

Does anyone remember the game 'Defiance' on Xbox 360 and Xbox One for a short time?

If you do remember, I would rather have them run STFC atm

[silver parcel]

aww yeah

rolling in the dough now

[timber sail]

jeez so low on event store currency this month...

has anyone been tracking it? 😂

[dull mason]

https://tenor.com/view/spin-crayon-paper-gif-7551364

Yeah, it's rubbish

[night frigate]

I don't know what I got, I couldn't see my screen because it's broken

[night frigate]

Not the only one to comment about the event store

Many have mentioned the lack of event store loot compared to previous event stores

Still wondering why projectiles are not added to event store

[warm pivot]

https://tenor.com/view/spin-wheel-drink-a-beer-beer-gif-17731322

[nimble stump]

Soooo silly question, I know this is a paid $$ extra, but the milestone 1 chest disappeared after I hit the first milestone in the sms. Does that mean if I do purchase it later, I don’t get that chest? @heady moon 🤨

[warm pivot]

most likely

[night frigate]

If you think you are being ripped off...

Chances are you are

[silver parcel]

if it's like the wave bonus they did last time, it'll reappear

when you purchase

[short pewter]

Is it one time purchase for all four chests?

[warm pivot]

would be an bait and switch otherwise, scopely likes to avoid it

[muted cape]

Many say this every event store 🤣

[warm pivot]

well now that they offer dolamite as well, yes... its never enough ^^

but for years the eventstore didnt have anything interesting... when there is nothing you dont care about currency

[nimble stump]

Can we get confirmation on that? Feels an odd way to encourage a purchase by making the chests disappear. 😆

[muted cape]

I have low expectations I need 897K ish event loot to get everything I need 😂 so priorities are Dol and Medallion then prey

[queen jolt]

this is weird, i still have mine

try a quick clear loc?

[warm pivot]

nah, its the wavepass addition thing

[opal turret]

@queen jolt Any news about the loot box "fast opening" revamp?

[queen jolt]

no update yet mate

[opal turret]

If you get something please post it in the announcements tab

[night frigate]

Mine was working fine, I had no issues until the recent game update where refines got broken

[nimble stump]

Tried a clear and a hard restart on the game as well. Still missing.

[night frigate]

I had no issues from day one regarding the disable animations

[warm pivot]

https://tenor.com/view/linus-tech-tips-ltt-bug-gif-19900847

[queen jolt]

okay after I did a clear loc, premium ms1 disappeared lol

[night frigate]

Rezelius, are you using the mod for STFC?

The rippers one that got renamed

[night frigate]

There is a recent release... 3 weeks ago... Fixes a lot of issues

[hot token]

before I restarted, I saw this, now the tile is fixed but the ms1 vanished 🙂

[vernal jungle]

after i bought the premium it showed back up to claim.

[little violet]

Anyone have a screenshot of the prime start bundle?

[warm pivot]

quite the odd pricetag

[queen jolt]

yes the gift does come back and you're able to claim it

[warm pivot]

how much currency in total? i claimed before i checked 1st milestone

[silver parcel]

can confirm it comes back

[little violet]

Nice ..

[radiant helm]

Any chance scopely can fix this message when I try and refine materials and parts?

[little violet]

That likely means you already refined and it just never cleared...

[ornate knot]

Is there a difference in event store items based on ops level? I have neither dolamite nor the USS Relativity 😬

[warm pivot]

relativity isnt in there

[nimble stump]

Not currently no.

[solemn plaza]

No one has the Relativity.

And yes some items are ops gated.

[radiant helm]

I refine, still stuck in the bundle, then when I leave it I get that message and kicked out of refinery. Making a bad process even more painful.

[radiant helm]

Some are ship tier related. For example the number of eviscerator parts changes and resets, by tier.

[ornate knot]

I see it must be trolls then. On my server some people claim to have the relativity in the store…

[solemn plaza]

Event store no.
Cash store yes.

[ornate knot]

Okay thanks!

[vernal jungle]

could still be trolls. never discount the trolls

[tepid lotus]

It's just the revenant and the vindicator in the event store. There's been complaints that the relativity isn't in there.

[ornate knot]

Yeah would have been really nice

[tepid lotus]

I think because those two are closer to completion for F2P players.

Relativity, they're further off, so still a chance for people to get sick of waiting and buy it.

[vernal jungle]

generally speaking they never put the newest ship into the event store. i wouldnt fuss over that ship anyway and i own one. the revenant though.... you really want that ship up and running

[ornate knot]

First one is 21k + 27k + 36k + 60k =144k Total

[warm pivot]

i ll count the standart recruit alliance gifts... might be in the singledigits xD

[slow mica]

That when you buy the pack right ?

[ornate knot]

That’s only the additional premium cache yes.

[little violet]

Do you have to buy four packs?

[ornate knot]

No only one that unlocks all caches

[hot wave]

I have one person in my alliance and some on our server seeing new missions pop up in the holodeck, but a majority of players don’t see anything

[silver parcel]

what missions

[little violet]

They leveled up to to mission probably

[hot wave]

Ranger pt 1-5, Ranger pt 6-10’and The mechanics of Resentment

[hot wave]

They are saying they are like ops 34 missions

[silver parcel]

that's a very old arc mission

if it needs diodes, they should contact support and see if they'll issue them

usually arc missions don't show up well after their arc has run, when you ops up

but that particular one does

[hot wave]

They had the diodes, it was just interesting, and it’s been ranging from low ops 40 range to mid 50s range players

[silver parcel]

(i remember because it popped up for me when i ops up after the arc ended)

[little violet]

I see nothing about that mission

[tepid lotus]

You won't be able to look it up until you take it and find out what the actual mission is.

[ornate knot]

and Bananas?

[warm pivot]

i save it for a rainy day ^^

[little violet]

Idk, maybe. Scopely 's 🤷

[tepid lotus]

That mission is: https://stfc.space/missions/1124486412

[shy hamlet]

check the special currency category for the dolamide

[half hornet]

I got Syndicate level where my Tritanium Generators A B receive SHP buff, but my ship got nothing

[silver parcel]

it's a minor boost early on, you wouldn't really notice it

[ornate knot]

Omg thanks saved my behind

[proven magnet]

so the first one is 15$ how expensive is the second?

[silver parcel]

for?

[proven magnet]

premium cache

[silver parcel]

you only need to buy it once

[proven magnet]

ok so 144k s31 intelligence for $15, as long as i log in everyday? sounds nice to me

[little violet]

So it is not even a krenim formation directives 🤣

[strange arrow]

nope

[little violet]

So a waste of money then in my eyes, thanks for the screenshot

[strange arrow]

yw

[silver parcel]

even without krenim, if it was 1 solo start, i'd have grabbed it

but half?

chimera ptsd vibes

[tepid lotus]

It defines trickle, because you're getting trickled on with that pack.

[strange arrow]

Basically, i guess it benefits the alliance you're in, to me not an incredible value

[formal crypt]

Is there any crew that helps/bumps up your ability to get shots off first ?

[little violet]

If you mean against players? The person who hits the attack button last before battle begins shots first

[lofty snow]

so, I guess we're stuck with the new 'flyout' claim thing, so have a question - has anyone verified that you still get the chest content when you click open/claim and there's no flyout (which happens fairly frequently)?

[little violet]

You can turn it off in settings...

[tepid lotus]

I turned it off, so no, not stuck with it.

[lofty snow]

ah ok

still would like to know answer to the question though

[little violet]

If the rewards were more pronounced I would keep it because it does.... Make daily claims wayyyyyyy faster

[formal crypt]

Hostiles for this case

[shy hamlet]

I'm turning it off for the refinery and then back on for the rest of the day

[little violet]

They will always shot first because scopely don't want you farming rep for no damage

[formal crypt]

And Chang's ability to delay has never worked. OK

[little violet]

It won't on hostiles

Armada, yes, but not hostiles

[formal crypt]

Wait it worked on players???

Ohhh

[little violet]

This is why it will not work round one...

It does work on players, yes

[formal crypt]

Interesting. Don't think I've ever seen it say it proc'd but then again haven't been looking for it lately either

[little violet]

He was made before scopely made officers for players.. Officers for armadas and officers for hostiles. Then ship types only..

[formal crypt]

Gotcha. Then it appears that SNW Pike/SNW Kirk/Harrison is going to be my best shot at lowering/removing damage for Gorn since the 60s get off 2x shots before anything I can hit.

[lyric haven]

If using Evis, try Fat Mudd full synergy with Paris LD.

[formal crypt]

OH! I forgbot he was 98%! Thank ya!

[lyric haven]

You'll get the odd dud of a battle, but holds up well for the most part

[formal crypt]

Yep, it's about 1.5mil hull damage the other way, now i just crunch some numbers to see if it's better or worse 60%

[lyric haven]

Be sure to include proc probability of both RNG abilities and average it out over a hull in your calcs 👍

[unborn delta]

What is the current promo code?

[formal crypt]

I'm lazy and instead of doing the value based I'll just run a few hundred montecarlo sims

And with appropriate rounding error ....

[fossil osprey]

Hello. I am new player. Server I started feel like developed one. I am aware I can transfer before level 12 but I can't find any info about how far are server progressed or are there any fresh alliance communities starting, or any alliance advertising place.

Thank you in advance for your feedback.

[tough sentinel]

Has anyone bought the new Prime Start Bundle? How big is the daily claim?

[dull mason]

Another cash event 🤦🏼‍♂️

[graceful sage]

So you get the $14.99 pack and get those 4 bundles?

[woeful compass]

yeah

[stark sluice]

Anyone from S16 in here, ideally INTL faction? I have a question about an Incursions you guys had with S24

[fierce fossil]

do we expect a fix for the claims?

it was working fine....with the cancel animation

till now

[ornate knot]

Yes

[mighty zinc]

So much for April 16th at 1pm comp gift for gs31 buyers 🤣 still waiting , probably be like customer service in 3-6 weeks per response

[fierce fossil]

end of the week from what i have heard

for the comp

[woeful compass]

April 17th...

[mighty zinc]

April 16th it says here

[woeful compass]

not for the gift chest

if you bought the ship between the 8th and 16th

[mighty zinc]

Ah okay there’s the confusion 😂☠️

[stark fjord]

I can hit 3 level 55 slients with my northcutt with the wrong crew gorkon/khan/snw uhura

[opal meadow]

Try using a good crew, Janeway, Doc, 5

[warm pivot]

the "good crew" is ent e pic, ent e data phlox

[stark fjord]

and below deck?

[warm pivot]

hb, hull repair, critchance, burning moral

isodamage

[opal meadow]

Janeway, Doc, 5 gets me 3.7m full cargo on a trip to 65's

[solemn plaza]

You're also not hopelessly terribly behind on everything

[solemn plaza]

Do you have Phlox?

[stark fjord]

yes

tier 3 I think

[solemn plaza]

Pike/Moreau/Phlox

[warm pivot]

overkill imo

[solemn plaza]

Not for Ben it's not

[warm pivot]

well... ^^

cant argue with that one

[thorn fjord]

I routinely use E Picard, E Data, Tucker, with Torres, Hugh, Chapel and whatever, for farming Silents

But that’s on a 950m Sanctus

[warm pivot]

and why a northcut for farming 55s?

[stark fjord]

so blt, pic hugh and hugh?

[warm pivot]

hit the 53s

[hot dove]

Until the Realta O’War comes for you ☺️😆

[solemn plaza]

Need to overkill his crew so he doesn't come back here in 5 minutes saying it's totally impossible unless he spend $20k to max an Ent-D or something obscene like that.

[solemn plaza]

PMPhlox, Hugh/BLT/Pic Hugh.

[little violet]

that was probably for pst.. trhey still have an hr and half

[stark fjord]

4 level 55 with epicard edata phlox

[little violet]

Don't you have to hit the bigger ones for you ops?

now I will try pm phlox as soon as I am done using monroe on other ship

L55/57 for Ops 56

[stark fjord]

like 4-6k a day but I am no longer doing all of the pulls so more like 2k a day becouse I am trying to tri grind the rep

[warm pivot]

for every minute in discord you could hit 10 mu surveys and gain minimum 500 credits

[little violet]

So, your ops is above your rep level?

[stark fjord]

I am 4.7b to fed legend

[little violet]

Honestly I don't remember what rep is g5 rares

[stark fjord]

plus my northcutt cant reach the level 57 silent system 100 or so short of warp range

[warm pivot]

https://tenor.com/view/loki-dont-just-dont-stop-gif-23310589

[little violet]

4-6k credits a day seems terrible for G5 especially when the armada chests pay more than that

[stark fjord]

northcutt warp range 404 and the system is 525

[stark fjord]

its physicaly impssible to pull the epic and rare armadas chest g4 and g5 every day as the cooldown is longer than that at most 1-2x a week

and I cant even do armadas becouse I am in a solo alliance

[little violet]

I mean a G5 epic chest should be paying you 15-20k credits for each faction

[fallow sorrel]

focus on the NSEA, 30 mins of grind can get you loads of rep, credits and speedups. you should be able to easily grind the lvl58 mu surveys with a t6 NSEA

[little violet]

rare should be close to that as well

[little violet]

I( doubt he even has the nsea

[stark fjord]

tier 7

[woeful compass]

where are you guys hitting with a T14 cube?

[fallow sorrel]

go grind the MU surveys in mirror romii, you should have tri-rep and enough credits to get the g5 rare ships in no time

[little violet]

mine is still tier 13

[opal meadow]

And use 3 * Rep Exo's

[stark fjord]

with pm phlox I can hit 11 level 55 slients 🙂

[little violet]

I use 5 as cap, phlox and edata...

[fallow sorrel]

not sure why you are basing your progress on ability to kill silents. its a slow loop to get parts and that medallion particle drop is a scam. Gorn Eviscerator on the other hand has a guaranteed parts refinery

[little violet]

this research with max below deck voyager officersis excellent

[warm pivot]

dont... above 8/10 they are ops 62 locked.... you will trigger him to rush even harder

[dull mason]

Which one first
Combat accuracy
Or combat ferocity from the ex-borg store

[little violet]

He is no where near ready for 61+

[fallow sorrel]

better sourcing in the Gorn Isomatter refinery

[little violet]

Requires tier 10

Tier 7 if you are ops 61+ to get rare parts
