surveys good rep too but hard to find during the day late at night they easier to find
for the higher level surveys I use cube so I can transwarp back if I insta-die
cuz warp times get longer
When the maintenance came up early, no one else was on my server for 45 minutes, and I just went through those systems and cleaned up
with the reliant you should be able to AFK farm the d7s which drop twice the loot of other hostiles the same level
Well the captain ability of Carol Marcus is 150% to the loot drops in the arc, and that doesn't even count for when she's paired with bridge officers. From what I read from the description, I don't think she affects faction.
you also know, places where people can farm well 1---- T players Scopley makes one zone for that
that's her OFFICER ability and it's 150% at rank one, 700% at max
Oh I thought that was her captain ability
lol
she doesn't have a captain ability
her below-decks ability has the potential to be amazing when paired with PMA for farming
She's basically the solution to getting a bunch of loot
So everyone is there and its like Cardassian lv50 system, all chasing the same lone red π€£
And the reliant will make killing the hostile easier, but I don't think it's going to be an AFK ship
I'm going to try to get her to rank 3
like I did Annorax
most of the epics I only go for rank 1 or 2
Meanwhile player's struggle,
Till there fingers are raw π€¦πΌββοΈ
ur gonna spend on this arc?
who said I was gonna spend xD
That's done deliberately so you are pressured to purchase packs to get her or packs to complete auctions to get her. It's also designed to pressure you buy the ship for $100
I did buy FC Khan tho
Event store - Where's mirror uhura?
Anyone who doesn't get him will be at a huge PVP disadvantage. Joachim is a huge pve/pvp advantage too
100% iso defense.
To players and hostiles.
ya FC Khan got some NICEEE stuff and I thought about going F2P but the same currency you use for his shards also goes towards his skill points
And will be made obsolete in 3/4 months time by the next 'must have'
hmm u only have a pvp advantage if u spent hard cash on each and ever prime and forbidden/chaos tech
And we already have way too much crap to worry about. Standard damage, critical, iso, iso cascade, shred, and then all of the defense stuff on top of it. It's beginning to get a little bit ridiculous
and the biggest pvp advantage is being bigger then everyone else since u can hit 30 levels down or something lol
Gotta keep us spending...
Yeah that's just a silly mechanic. A level 70 being able to hit someone in the 40s
Spread used to not be so bad years ago, but nowadays a 70s will smoke someone just a couple of levels underneath them
My Northstar is 9m ish with pvp crew on....hate to think what a 70 spenders is π€£
guessing theres gonna be a territory update this or next year as well.. since all the big boys should have every research completes and have no need for tiny pvp buffs from those territories ;p
There's a guy in my server with a 100 billion power ship
with g7 its gonna be even worse
But is he happy though? π€£
should be out this year as well
Shield or share
it's been like 7-8 months since they last released a FC and Lorca still a must-have just they wanna sell you an extra FC seat too lol
speaking of which is the FC seat still broken? xD
It's supposedly fixed.
where do u get khan upgrade things then ? do u have to spend for thise too ?
no you get them from augment store but you need superior rep to unlock the missions
but in the meantime you can stockpile the currency used to start the repeatable missions
Ya, without the proper fact, he's like Lorca β events only or packs
it drops in chests from all of the new hostiles
at least he's solo farmable unlike sloan you don't get enough solo wave starts to farm the normal credits for Sloan
Need to ask Rev Deuce it's his lol
send that to Ham π
I haven't seen anything for FC khan in hostile chests
the things in the chests are used to start the missions which give the currency for FC Khan
but you need superior rep to use them
it's also used to unlock an extra p1 away team slot
(after you do the missions to get the OTHER currency)
But those are only one time things right? Once you exhaust the missions, then how would you source them?
Oooooo
so think like Q trials
That makes sense then
I'm guessing the max difficulty is aimed at lv70 so I'm gonna start with the middle one and if that's too easy do the #4
Max difficulty is challenging for maxed G6 epics. Smallest ship I saw was fully buffed T16 Krencha surviving with like 1mm hull.
fun.. is the second hardest doable with G5 epics? π€
I am running 4th difficulty and it should be doable by 66 ships for sure
ah I will have 66 rare in a month or two
These are yellow bosses, so like almost no officers work on them and they do have 15% iso damage and 5000 Apex barrier like Augment hostiles do
4th difficulty one is also quite beefy on hull shield in addition to the Apex barrier
however I think you can try and if you fail, you can buy the lower missions still
"Since Thursday afternoon (European time), we've experienced database performance issues impacting some player interactions, primarily logins and bundle claims. These issues emerged alongside the recent M78 update and other contributing factors, which we're currently investigating."
π€£
what other interactions are there if one cannot login? ><
o wait web store
me silly
New bug.
Upgrade two drydocks and gained zero power from them π
put ships on them π
Wow, working through the weekend. Woopie doo, maybe fix stuff before rolling out
Their idea playable and mine are different
I can guarantee you, the paid for stuff works 100%
The will definitely make sure they get money first
wow maintenance during tc π€£
MORE MAINTENANCE
Come on scopley, get your act together
These aren't new drydocks π
Did scopely just tell that that "not getting rewards from input" is just pure delay ????
Yeah more maintenance letβs se how much more they mess up
Unfortunately the community manager is wrong as people have been losing currencies and it's not been giving people the items they purchased
Scopley trying new ways to make players pay for the content
@atomic notch unfortunately, these have not been processed properly for people including me.
We buy things from the faction or refineries, and we get an "unknown error," and our currency is taken away, but the items never show up in inventory. Not minutes nor hours later
Even if we restart the game, the currency is still missing, and the items are never in our inventory
Finally their currency fetish is causing trouble. Lets hope they learn something.
Who is this new admin.
You can't just come in here making announcements like that.
That's @heady moon job
Claims do work they just take more time.
Why does this happen with Mr tiger loops. The big expansive ones that are over complicated and may get easier with time but on man are simply not enjoyable for the click bait they are.
I cite bajorian and mirror loops as loops im glad I have finished and want notjing more to do with them
When will they finally understand overflushing all servers with loads of new content with multiple loops, currencies, hostiles etc, etc while the game allready has major lags and such for weeks will fry all gameplay.
Can someone confirm if the lost rewards get in inventory later or not???
Not
can i get drydock H as maintenance compensation π€£
Lost 1 superchip gained from revenant mark1 scrap
I can confirm they never show up. I had this happened several times, and I lose the currency, and the items never show up even after the game starts, and even 12+ hours later. When this error pops up, that's when this nasty situation happens
I have seen no evidence that they do, they get spaced and never show up
@sharp owl
Space: the laggy frontier.
These are the maintenance logs of the starship 404.
Its weekly mission: to fix what was working yesterday,
to break new features with every hotfix,
to boldly show βretrievingβ¦β where no text has loaded before.
Some things hit the nail of the head
they have database problems.. prob too much stuff happening with all the bloat they added
I have made several videos and sent them to support actually showing the error, it taking my currency, not giving me my reward, restarting the game, and the items never were showing up. I've made before and after screenshots and videos
I did that so I could have irrefutable proof that it was taking currency and not giving the items
they need to remove all useless bloat so this doesnt happen/rarely happens going forward
Perfect STFC obituary
Now that's communication ta @atomic notch ππ» ππ» ππΌ. More if that would solve soooo many problems π
So does this mean Scopely is deleting your account?
A deletion of old event store loot and credits would be a great step
but they add multiple each arch ;p guess they just need to use the archive more heavily and add everything in there after a few arcs regardless of ppls pace
keep the train moving
Deleting or archiving old expansions isn't really going to help database performance all that much.
Soooo chest claims, arguably what has become the biggest element of 'game play', aren't working. May as well just take the servers down indefinitely until it's actually fixed π€£
Wow Did James Harden let himself go after game 7 yet again
did someone dismiss the warnings of no eating inside the server rooms and bring their tacos in?
People canβt complain, for years we demanded a maintenance arc, now we got one.
Maintenance to the fix the maintenance that broke the mainentance
βΊοΈ
Space: the laggy frontier.These are the maintenance logs of the starship 404.Its weekly mission: to fix what was working yesterday,to break new features with every hotfix,to boldly rollback where no dev dares to tread..... what strange new bugs will 404 find in startrek error 404? π
maintenance for the maintenance that broke the maintenance that tried to fix the arc
I uh...wish I'd read the announcement before heading into mirror space
Really scopely, right in the middle of TC battle
are you kidding? broken servers again?
Holy heck! How, many maintenance cycles is this gonna take?!
lets see if this 4th maintenance will deliver my paid pack from yesterday .
i wish you all the best π€£
dont fprget the mantanance for the mantanance
id say 5 more? i think?
add another maintenance after that and we'll be good to go
at least he didnt head to khan space and have a warp core breach π
so im unshielded because of maintenance?
btw do we get a comp chest for this maintenance
That announcemet laying the groundwork for no compensation. "Everything is working, just a bit slow. We promise, comp not needed"
ππππ
One thing is sure
With every maintenance more get broken
thats what scoply said
This is 4th maintenance now?
a tomar x culo el servidor 402
Hiii @opaque crescent u remember we met last incursionπ (S31store)
hold on u didnt notice? π€£
i think we're gonna get a cooldown soon π
New lag and bugs will be introduced in 45min
Will Scopely crash it again?
haha i remember π
Scopely is literally the definition of, "If it ain't broke, fix it till it is."
I was impressed we scaled to a 5min cooldown...
Sad. Only some players struggled to get through the grind under some of the worst conditions possible. I just wanted everyone to know itβs a solid arc. I hope they get it right soon. It is justβ¦..wow. Not trying to defend them other than the content is 2nd to none.
But itβs painful everyone I know. Hang in there. I guarantee by end of month when they get this fixed, it will amaze you
Maintenance cooldown prime
@atomic notch how long does it take for claiming of bundles to appear? Itβs been 5 hours and I donβt see the Blueprints I purchased in the Faction store.
New daily maintenance arc
If this happens again I'm going to shave my head bald.
scoply should remove the French language pack from servers
i wasnt there for it only saw the 2 minute cooldown
Well that interrupted a massive tc battle
Slow mode incoming π
You forgot the whiteout on the screen
Great maintanence during active tc
I'll say one thing......
This compo chest had better be blooming something special.
Ouch
hold you on that 
everybody has it
Wwe champions bad less. Down time tha. This lol
Missed a good tx fight because of it lol
somehow the best comp we've ever gotten is for the treasury showing its banner a little too often, and I still can't wrap my head around that
yep 5min cooldown.. I don't recall hitting 5mins even during the #FreeGaila Insurrection
Exactly same as previous one
Dopamine levels dropped. This is unacceptable. π
Not true... If you don't log on, you don't get error π€―
Talk about ruining a nice weekend, now I'll have to play with the kids π
You were supposed to take the βblueβ pill π€¦ββοΈπ
We all know why the game is broken why scopley pretend to look for the reason?
more players than back then i think thats why π
new bug - emergency maintenance
imma drink until this is fixed bbl
whales complaining
Is the store broken?
They lying you claim something it takes the rss and you donβt get anything. 
i was in mirror 
Maintenance again ?
nah it's the main arc feature, creates a sense of urgency in the game cause you never know when it'll be down
New lag and bugs will be introduced in 45min
Strawberry Daquiri for me π§
Half Khan unlock pack would be nice to compensate this mess π
its not WOK Arc its the Maintance Arc lol
It's hilarious that even the maintenance announcement is contradictory!
The wrath of Ricardo MonteKahn is quite vicious
oh I think I figured out the problem. You know how they made it so the new augment hunters have a 90% chance to instantly kill you? They accidentally made it so they have a 90% chance to kill the game
this maintenance is to fix the maintenance annoncements.
Khan killed stfc like he killed spock
Really hope the next arc is called maintenance
everyone should not buy anything until they sort the entire system out, without this the crap will just continue. Or everyone should agree just not to use the game for a month.
mods are asleep - post gorn
This game is starting to be "maintenance simulator"
The new Maintenance loop grind
So, you mean itβs the players fault? Self sacrifice and all.
We try that since 6 years
Not going to happen
Really? Maintenance? Right in front of my emotional support tribble?
if they allow us to buy a 30 day shield then yea sure id go offline for a bit π
Always our fault
We the testers π
@heady moon This has been so bad, just give everybody the Reliant so we can get thru this arc and put it behind us.
"give us time"? π€£
Max rep/joachim by Sunday
Donβt let this guy fix anything π
I don't think I'm doing this right
it is the players fault in so much as we allow scopely just to keep extracting the urine
only the Bravest warriors and fleet commanders, survive
ππΌ MAINTENANCE π¦Ίπ¨πΌβπ§
how long is maintance?
OMG more maintenance. WTFπ€¦ββοΈπ€ͺπ€
100% free. Hard to believe. But true. He canβt be bought nor the path to himπ
Itβs up since Tuesday until unknown π
Think they need some new testing people
How?
To infinity and beyond
Their Access 97 database is all clogged up with errors, so they have to purge more of your purchases from it to make room
How long is maintenance!?
Garbage progs are garbage
oh oh
Until they find yet another basic functionalities to break so that the game only remains as an e-shop π
lol got it, thanks
Hug them in front of gfs/bfs and it's much much more scary
id volunteer but if this is what its like after testing id kill my PC lol
That's actually really impressive π
So grind the rep. π
We'll disrupt u for 45 min to minimize disruptions
Scopely IT...
They have testing people?
They test people
Idk maybe the monkeys had enough
Its a work experience kid
TouchΓ© π
New maintainance? or same one from last night? π
Hope there is not another iOS update incoming.with all these maintenance interludes. Won't be cleared by apple until August
Save those token ones from chests. When you get superior and have plenty of those coins. Oh, itβs on. We wonβt discuss the free khanπ
Cmon man, do it right
I will say, this is a GREAT distraction away from the arc being an immense grind fest, with basic missions locked behind a pay wall.
It's actually a genius move, looking at how desperate everyone is to get back in.
It's like withdrawing a fix from an addict. They no longer hate you for getting them hooked, they just want more π
It would be nice if scopely says what exactly they are planning to fix with each announced maintenance
It's as right as Scopely's maintenances. π
im sure this is 6th we had 4 yesterday, and this is 2nd today
We'll be in Elevensies by next week.
At this stage I think free premium battlepasses all round are in order π€·
yeah honestly the jankiness is appropriate
Maybe Trumps son should take over the QA department, after all he's a genius who can turn on his computer.......probably makes him more qualified than existing scopely employees
Khan arc is a flop remove it altogether do a different arc
The word FLOGS! was invented for times like this
CORNNNNNN!
Hang in there. Iβm not defending them. Just one of the few who grinded rep hardcore. You will be a happy camper
maintenance = reboot Windows xp π€ 
Maybe announcements can be forwarded to this page as no one reads the actually announcement pages but they all come here to complain about maintenence π
Seriously another maintenance with others expected over next few days!!!
Game is impossible to play properly
Can i just pay extra for a fully maintained server?
Iβm a grinder but can see this going nowhere
thats gonna be me after i tier my rare tomorrow π
please don't give them ideas
Already cost me so much in healing
Think pay was more appropriate π
Why haven't they done a TAS (The Animated Series) arc? Is it off limits? Copyright issues? ( The Kzinti belong to Larry Niven so that may be an issue).
How about a month without new buggy content and they fix the millions of bug they already have? Just a thought
I'm not in mood. They disturb my grinding for events. 5 hours to end events soon
FIRE the AI Programmers, bring back the cheap programmers
You might want to see a doctor about that one
LoL π
<@&509690795536941056> ive yet to be able to do my daily BP event cause the maintenance earlier today was during my break from IRL and I went to do it now before bed and theres another maintenance... anyway I can just get the BP points from event or do I have to stay up another dang hour just to do it cause the games broken
Lol i did think that
Scopely Developer after each Maintenance:
@atomic notch "any purchases or claims you make will still process correctly, despite response delays" - I am sorry, this is not the case. Issue has been going on since Wednesday, and I pulled an field repair bundle on Wednesday which took my credits and I never got the shards for, and yesterday with an 4m common augment pull which again I never got the bundle contents for.... And they are just the two big ones, I know I have lost more over the last 24 hours
Maintenance waaaah
So many missed arc opportunities from every series really. Including movies
Fire the cheap programmers, bring back the interns π
Judgy Snake Disapproves.
I said that before
Forget the crazy WOK arc, as we're losing all this time for just the regular events, how do we get that back ? Another comp chest ?
dont worry kirshara will save me π as long as i grind when no one else is around that is
but who is grinding the hostiles anymore anyways π
They had one a few years ago. 2022 i think
That money certainly is not invested in the game
were already owed 2 lol
Not me
Seriously why donβt they get people who actually play the game to test before sending out updates to all
We are all back here again! Letβs get this back on cooldown πͺπ
And do think, they did it all running Access 97
Never thought I would actually miss the simplicity of the first augment arc. It was dull but at least it worked
β¦. So far π€£
that was the lower decks arcβ¦
Once you get superior, you will live there grinding. Youβll see π
After getting there. My grind doubled π
We had one last year too
Never stop a running system. That's what my instructor always said.
*lower decks part 1
how much rep was that?
Maybe they are going to Release STFC #2 The Search for more Money
I can remember Quality for Qantity
Wasn't that the Cerritos introduction ?
lol
@atomic notch long time i dont see u posting. sure things serious
60m total. But once you unlock all that, most will double their geind. Believe that
Never "TOUCH" a running system 
sieze the wallets!
Anyone recall when the servers were on AWS... OOO those were the days.
ohhh, yea ill live in augment then π€£
What are they gonna break now
This arc ideas are good the execution is horrible
All these ideas are dropped. Its exactly the opposit now
At this point I feel gaslighted. π
the D7 chasers are good?
Hard to explain. After superior opens up a few key claims, one wants the loot, rep is irrelevant. That last 60m to exile is a joke due to the rep in chests
They misspelled "pay to win"
Nowhere does it say produce quality code....
omg im like 80m behind you lol
i saw someone exchange something for khan fc shards. what are those? do you know?
Ideas are good ...but 90% IS BS
Let's blame the Russians π€
they are just below lvl 30 need to be less lethel
is the 90% meant to be a d7 joke or no? π
The one with 30 % are pretty nice when u find them
Itβs a process
I'd be happy with the eyes of gowron avatar as compensation π he's got mad eyes π€ͺ
our best Programmer is working...
New features - 50% of the time, it works everytime πͺπ
if the D7 didnt exist, it would save the hassle of having to disable them each time, plus could read mission text in peace
Careful, they'll plan a special operation
The new ship USS Reliant will eliminate that 90% only for 99 bucks in the next arc
oh wo doing all of khans champions get u fc khan?
another day of clown ball
You were grinding 70s?
Yea i know π
Pineapple on pizza is an abomination
- Was my sweet spot. 19k rep per kill
imagine if they only lowered it by 60% and you can still die 30% of the time π
Is it fixed yet ?
highest i can kill is 50s so far
oh was that all recent rep? jesus
no im spamming retry button
π€£ π€£ π€£
before lower deck there was the Original series animated cartoon
They have that on the miners π
actually its never gonna be fixed so i assume u were talking about maintenance π€£
Just remember itβs the loot chest that is the most valuable currency in game after you get there
how many servers would scopely patch if scopely could patch servers
is hitting higher for chests more worth or is hitting lower for more hostiles better?
The best even arc they had was Act of War when the D3 etc were added to the faction store... 95% of the arcs since have been bug infested
None, cuz they ain't patched anything correctly
It's slowly getting time to ask what kind of compensation there is 
that way d7 will be 30% and miners 0.
I still have a game issue with that 90% bull π©. It has a 90% chance to implode the warp core ... so I went in without using warp via the Disco and still got blown up ... wΕ₯f Scopely? I'd have to rewatch Discovery, but I don't think Discovery even had/used a conventional warp drive in Season 3 as using warp drive could cause ships to explode (sound familiar?).
BTW, it didn't work. I went boom π₯
imagine if you bought the ship and you still die to d7s
Chests are broken by levels. 62 will give bigger chest than 60, 52 bigger that 50. Etc
maybe, they should just restart the arc at this point? lol
Disco does have a traditonal warp drive, but that is irrelevant to the case of video game logic. Relax.
good to know. ill take note of that thanks
Thanks @atomic notch - that's the sort of insight that's actually useful. It's messed up, people are working through their weekends to fix it, and it'll continue to be a bit rocky for the next couple of days.
Cool. 3 day shield, sun is shining, beer is cold.
So we get all problems back?
Yes, it has one but it was taken offline for Season 3
These issues are what happens when people eat pineapple on their pizza π€·ββοΈ
A process well worth it
Champion trophies are the main goal
Like I said again... Don't reason video game logic to the shows. They will never gel.
Pretty obvious there will be a ship for that area next month
WHY DO WE HAVE ANOTHER MAINT
yea if i can get khan within this month by grinding my butt out then i guess its worth it? π
Because they knew you were coming
All these maintenance outages are making me wish I'd taken up crochet.
to stop people from shooting each other in tc
I JUST GOT HOME WHY IS THERE ANOTHER MAINT
Someone had a bad day.
I think they accidentally applied the cooldowns to the whole server processes.
yeah qn and oznz and wv be clowning rn
They're just missing your lovely little visits
Pineapple on a tosti is nice too
This is everyone here if you get superior rep and have 130k champion trophies. Absolutely free. No bullπ©
ikkkrrr my shield was abt to expire
Can we just jump thru a time warp, and restart this loop with proper code?
https://tenor.com/bpmdb.gif
Anyone know when Maint will end?
And it will be broken π
Again???
how'd you get the rep though?
Definitely a new ship coming
r the missions hard btw?
Painfully
hes 66 so he can grind very fast
Should end in 12 minutes
After next maintenance to reset current maintenance
That goes in the bin
my 70 hit superior on friday iirc
You start with this
abomination
i researched the prime augment rep and it increased the rep bundles payout by 0%!
I hope they forget the shields. I was in a middle of a massive raid
Also please donβt forget everyone #FreeDTI
wow 27k π€
They only gave 13 minutes notice
I believe Romulans has their warp drives run off of contained singularities and not traditional warp cores.... But video game logic doesn't always follow lore
Heres a teaser shot
thats the point of the patch, to flush it down
Iβm an exception. But
@sly canyon where's rocket
Itβs a slippery slope. Let them get away with it once and it will happen all the time.
I didnβt get a yellow scopely peace flare last night, unless it came way after maintenance ended. Thank goodness I got online to check and made sure a shield was up before I went to bed π
Sure is a lot of hijacks
those looks hard
Grind. Canβt be bought nor they will never sell the rep. I guarantee it
Thatβs an unlucky number hope it doesnβt go wrong
how should ik
WOK arc, has to be the Miranda class. Or a Botany Bay mk 2 with go faster stripes π
like so
o7 @silver parcel
ππ» HI AT
30% btw
Love our new Rogue...just great......
Excuse me sir @silver parcel may I please bother you for a G4 role? Thanks
I'll be honest I didn't even notice the hostiles give rep, thought it was just from the chest redemptions. Thanks @lusty olive
there you go
It's a massive grind but people are dedicated enough to get to 60m so expect a ton of people to have Khan in time for Arenas on Monday
When server up again?
The conp chest better be Jeri Ryanβs, when all is said and done.
Should I buy a lottery ticket? https://i.gyazo.com/97a4dae1c8ea57e947bf7e1664dc62ca.jpg
Heaven forbid if loot crew worked for rep π
that part I'm aware of π
Can Scopely hire me as an IT specialist? I'll also try not to create bugs. π
Fight bugs with bugsπ€·π»ββοΈ
it does right? right???? π
you're gonna go against the company's mission statement on day one then? π
Yes
if estimate given is right, around another 10min
@feral zephyr @feral zephyr @feral zephyr im boreeeed
Umm π€·πΌββοΈ
Thank you. I need finish grind before I go sleep for work
I hear a bugs life is a good film to watch
was it supposed t obe anomalous phenomena today? i didnt get the daily event??
Hire starship troopers they are good with bugs
That's a Sunday event, Xhan
about 6 mins
SCOPLY you canβt run this game on cheap bargain basement servers. Considering how much money you extract from us buy competent servers and programmers. Not gig workers.
you don't try to not create bugs, you just try to keep the volume of bugs created down to the 'genuinely unexpected interactions' level instead of the 'if this code was food, gordon ramsay would appear and scream at you for 3 years' level where it currently tends
you can get a hijacked ent?
what was friday supposed to be? i didnt get it hi Q
leave the chokebooks alone!!
true. π€£ my fail
3 years is generous, id say 6 π
Today should be Cosmic Cleanup
Like I said. Iβm not Iβm not defending Scopley. But just want those who are on the brink of leaving to hang in there.
thats tomorrow
Comic cleanup
Loot crew & pilum π€€
Friday should of Been the Voyager one, but it was accidently added to the Thursday daily with the borg thursday
Itβs all probably because this was a movie tie in game and everything added was never meant to be
ahhhhh lmao makes sense
asssuming my gender?
tbh, it's gordon, he'd probably struggle to not move on to yelling at someone else after about 10mins, his attention span is dogsh*t, and that's coming from someone with adhd, lol
This is the best content arc ever. Yes they borked launch. But so many good things await
Another person with a bad day
first gif that popped up lol
Felt great. They should keep it the way it was today.
you're minusing off lag right?
The arc content is HUGE, agreed and long term I think folks will be very pleased with how easily they are able to max Joachim etc. sure itβs a grind, but what isnβt anymore
Iβm just trying to judge the content thatβs all
rollback to 77? think we can wait till 79 to experience the joys of the D7s and Khan + we'll get reliant in same month instead of having to wait the usual months
Others werenβt so lucky
It could be time for a cup of tea and some chocolate digestives.
6 years of play
Last 2 years is just constant failure from scopley
The hate from scop devs against players is shown growing with every arc
There is no hope it's getting better
The game is dieing and they only want squeeze more money before it shut down
The whole game is grinding itβs just smaller chunks for quicker hits of dopamine usually
Fair point
When Iβm able to max a new epic officer by day 4 and acquire a new FC and max most of those skills at the same time without spending, I call that a win.
Been playing since a few months after launch. Iβm beyond savingπ
Disagree. There's no hate. They have some great ideas for arcs. Just the implementation seems rushed and not thought through enough.
Free Β£100 battlepass for all players to be run like the Valentineβs Day bonus bp
It needs to come with the lat, multiphasic credits and all extra bonus that the Β£100 bp comes with.
Free, to each and every single player
π same
At this point I'm not sure even a full FC Khan unlock does it.
They'll never do that. Would impact their bottom line and their backers too much.
the 100 dollar bp isnt even worth tbh
choose another 100 pack π€£
or we get several 20 dollar packs
Is this maintenance event an SMS or SLB?
Oops we broke it let us break it more
That should be minimum imo. The sp grind is real.
FC Khan full unlock or I stop posting jokes π
servers up
Game is up
The Β£100 bp free as a bonus battlepass to get this arc and loop back on track for ALL players
what if, as compensation... they just actually fix all the bugs, and stop telling us they'll do things they have no intent of doing?
Free treasury, bonus BP and free FC Khan sounds fair.
nah free reliant so the grind is tolerable
Maybe if it was just one or two times but it's constant showing so you wrong
Just see this arc hostile events, hours of grinding and instead listing to players the double the points and call it heroic
They hate players and hate star trek or why destroy the arc for the best movie ?
still no comp
Game back
Nah I donβt want to encourage their model of these stupid grinds.
Great avatar. Just saying
I don't want free stuff, just put the stupid servers back on AWS lol
quick everyone spam play
actually may differ from server to server
99 is up
US 63 isnβt yet
<@&509690795536941056> - Serious question here: Are all servers affected or is there a correlation between affected servers and merged servers? because since 135 and 152 merged there has been nothing but lag on the game... Did the devs do any database maintenance to address errors which mergers would produce...
This is a joke over the last couple of days, flipping the power switch to kick everyone to fix the lag isnt a fix.
Why did scopely do such a major action like merging servers right before the introduction of a major content push?
1500 epic credits and that HF is mine. I must have it Monday π
I'm not wrong, I just have a different opinion to you.
if its db and transactions are piling up in backend, they will likely be running manual scripts to clear them and whatever else is causing the jam
wrong movie franchise sir. π
Last 2 years of constant failure show you are π
Scopely seems to lack internal planning. So the fact they did server merges and incursions at the same time seems very on brand for Scopely.
looks like they need to open a new DB server and split the data based on players home server π
It's not so much internal planning but more lining up with Cost Cutting features rolled out in a patch. So merge makes sense if that is all rolling out at once.
Scopely is just really bad at it lol
8 hr shields are up, will that be long enough for all the planned maintenance periods ?
merged servers were on bye for incursions.
i assume the put a new 1 on for other days off maintenance or time. this just the start
still not over voyager moving to thurs giving us 4 loops to grind in one day event wise π€£
Not all the time. Two months ago, 404 and 407 merged, 407 going from G3 to G5 Ascension in one. And then we had an Incursion event 3 days later.
is up?
Yes
Is it fixed?
we had the incursion event, but didnt cross over... there were research challenges etc still though
oh an 8hr shield as well - was gonna go through my whale bookmarks π
ill be back in 45 mins after i click all my initial chest openings π
instant response to pulls - looks promising or just not many logged in yet
So what was fixed with this particular maintenance window?
so what did it fix again
okay - reset miners - you can go ahead and do the next maintenance now
lag is still bad, US17........ will try again later
Online again. 4th time lucky π
Donβt think there is a point to use refinery
<@&509690795536941056> - Lag still isnt fixed
Already lost yesterday too much π
"Thanks for your patience and understanding."
game on
me too buddy... me too...
but still laggy as .... cant right F
opening chests getting sow again.
me too, chests opening r soooooooo long
Well here we are again. You couldn't write this..
"playable"
So should we write ticket to get the stuff back we lost because of emergency maintenance with almost no warning before?
well, i can see my ships killing hostiles now
they only said "maintenance window" not "we are gonna ffix all"
what they really want is for us all to go outside to fix the lag from too many players...
When player bases increase, most companies SCALE SERVERS UP. Scopely scales them down
it's saturday so go on! Join the nature of our planet
Don't look as anything got fixed
Same lag
maybe this is an elaborate rouse to let us forget DTI changes? ><
noo wait don't click anything!
XD
they also said "we'd like to advise players to please halt chest claims until the systems are stabilized." so you can login but don't touch the game
Can imagine stfc team beg the monopoly go team to please please help us we know nothing
working as intended π€
scopely actually reminds me of the IT department at my work ahaha
What have they done, my viβdar taking so much more damage from the borg probes now
Make crew stronger
at this point im starting to think this is what they wanted
maint over yet?
yes
So , not 45m ..
lasting for approx 45 minutes,
approx
Tried to log in before work... Maintenance.
Tried to log in after work... Maintenance.
I'm assuming ya'll have had a ball of a time π
is this 8h c/d just to make our claim even more fun? Why not make it double cost/double payout and a daily claim?

My lag pulls were better at 4 am than now π€·π»ββοΈ
20k officer depot tokens, gets you 5 officer chards cmon scopoley!!
How much does that cost to pull?
80 rare
Thanks
25 days for unlock if you wont forge to pull twice ><
Why don't you guys just shut the servers off while you work on it, you're wasting everyone's time.
Oh cool my mission for "the task" literally just disappeared while I was doing it
in that case open a ticket
The game is not improved at all
Bro, you're getting a Β£100 item for free and you still complaning?
Who wants bet that asking in Q&A about this debacle will be seen as toxic and get people banned?
If you don't like these features you can change game.
Its not a 99$ dock
The H cost 99$ the G was 20
Yep, cause of poor execution.
G Cost me Β£49.99 i was late to the party xD
yeah, Docks cost money, you can now source one for free
Assumed we unlock for free docksπ€
So, you can get 6 docks by OPS level, 2 are paid for
Daam
I not buy it but game not want give it in augument store
Mod here help me getting it
Where do you find that lucky charm ππ
So i assume now only 1 is paid as dock G u get from augment?
Android app is just a lag fest right now.
This whole debacle is approaching a week now, based on an arc and build that was clearly ill conceived and poorly executed.
There was obviously zero testing done and its not bad faith nor toxic to say that, its just counting at this point. There is no testing or QA at Scopely and any one saying otherwise is laughably out of touch with reality,
its called stupid amount of grind π€
I was asking a fortune teller today when Scopely would finally fix the game. The woman bleached her eyes and then fainted. She never woke up to tell me the answer. π
They can't fix it
The game can't handle the constant added garbage every month
Thousands of new currencies
Was one loop with 4 or 5 new things every 3 months
Now every month 30 new
And it's the reason for 99% of the problems
What they need is an in-game inventory overhaul. Simple. They need a way to exchange old unused currency for new currency whether that be currently existing stuff that is being used or other stuff that isn't used but can still be relevant
im guessing its still broken after this last maint?
But not quite as bad as before
We ask for something like that for years now
I think they might have realized that they can no longer kick the can down the road with this problem LOL
Hereβs the problem, they can claim the issues started Thursday, but the reality is they have been occurring since Tuesday, when the arc went live.
I don't think we're going to get out of all these problems until they realize that the new loops are at the heart of it. they know that putting too many people in the same systems causes problems (just ask territory def/cap). they know that putting too many people in the same system with speed crews causes problems (just ask the arena). so what did they do, they designed new loop grinds that take hours on end with everybody on every server stuck (for the most part) in the same 3 systems. they may already see this which is why they put a regular little hostile hunt in the EE event yesterday instead of that absurd all day grind that was there when the arc started. who knows.
Don't think they care
They donβt care at all only π°
"..The game remains playable..."
Really
They plan squeeze every cent they can with a patchwork of game till no patch together help and then shut down, clear server
Start stfc 2.0
Money flows again
<@&509690795536941056> In reagrds of missing currency (from yesterday when the problems started) I got the following response from Support:
Rest assured that the items you claim aren't missing.
How do I read this? My currency was deducted, the claimed rewards were not added to my account. How are they not missing? Can you have support made better aware of what actually happens?
I said 2,0 LoL
They aren't missing. They've been deposited in the $copely War Ophans of Endor Fund for safe keeping
Got a suggestion Scopely can put as msg on those loading screens... "Bug is not a bug but a feautre untill fixed. After fix it becomes quality of life improvement."
I spent for the slb and the score was missing π€·π»ββοΈ
sorry and we have problems since Thursday comes too late for the players who quit the game yesterday. Because a point has been reached where the game crashes, error messages, bugs and other things are no longer bearable to have fun with the game
I've got to contact support about missing refined isogen, as I tried to refine it yesterday but recieved nothing from it.
This was just minutes before we were warned not to open or claim chests...
Meh, noone actually quit...we all too addicted and used to this by now...we just whine and cry, but all still play
We lose people ww play together for years because of scopley incompetence and they not care
Every month is getting worse
It wasn't just started Thursday it started Tuesday, many given up on events for meta , as they missed Tuesdays , missed Thursdays , and with today could miss today ..players aren't on 24 hours a day ...make it right scopely...
Nope sadly some real quit
December, January and February seemed to be relatively ok, with limited issues with the game. However since then, what's happened to cause this much chaos?
Because of the bug no 1733...why not 1732 or 1134
Its stupid addicting game we all play and shower money onto them and nothing will change
they made non-stress-tested improvements to the backend - obviously#
This ππΌ
Lost 7 from my alliance , and 2 where in late 60s and considered mini whales , not coming back , no matter what ...
i'd like to see the "engineering" teams qualifications please
But I know it's a fact because I was told...goodbye π’
Goodbye to 10k to 20k a month scopely
And pay grade
Turn the servers off!!!
Was there a second comp yet ?
they somehow made the new hostiles harder, by making them disappear before u can engage them, maybe turn down the impulse speed of the new hostiles? havent been able to kill a single botany bay in over 24 hours because they simply vanish before my ship can get to them in the systems now. same with the normal hostiles, target lost.
first chest was for the mission sms, no other comps have gone out yet
You know the standard scop practice
The people response for this debacle will be promoted
They have a "who upset the players most win" moto π
there was no first compensation yet. What you received was the fix for the mission event which required superior reputation with augments to be completed within this arc
engineering and playable were both terms used, both lies.
you know a child usually stopped crapping their pants before 6 years old, not stfc though.
In all of this ranting I can agree on one thing.
This is not fun anymore
@long gyro definitely, over 1 hour just to click dailies this morning, that's without the daily grinds and then events
More and more hostiles are coming in game. Doing what I ahould do to make decent progress, its a full time job.
50% of events are (heroic) pay to get through
Not so much Quality of life , and less grind , they keep promising, but do more

<@&509690795536941056>
We deserve a 2nd BP this month
That's easier dont have to fight them π π π
Today all packs -90%
quarterly revenue has to be met at all costs 
expect lots of offers
Quarterly revenue? What are they instituting a cover charge to play? That why I can't get in?
Wait there it is, I see it now
you can source 2 for free
where is this located
we lost more this morning
was able to do my daily routine of claims and freebooters an hour ago ok - even had minimal lag on claims
A free 2nd bp AND a free treasury.
Not the $20 bp either⦠$100 with all the lat, multiphasic and bonus items that it brings.
Similar to the Valentineβs Day bp
the one this morning wasnt a comp chest it was to complete sms, we are waiting on 2 comp chests
By now weβre waiting on like 5
I think the comp will be 2 officer shards of the new officers and a couple of this field rotation things whatever there name is lol
Free 5 tierups to all owned shipsπ
60 officer choice tokens this time
i think we need a bit more than that
Iβd take a free store ship pack so I can just get the borg cube outright
bbl
Maintanence even worked or what still so laggy
Game is up. And running
Been waiting at claim screen for like 2 min
You wish to open one chest, too bad
I did get it atleast π
did they fix the stealing rss with no reward?
no -> see their latest announcement / warning
I donβt know. Iβm solely focused on champion trophies. Havenβt done anything else in 4 days π
No clue whatβs going on there
as tested with multiple tickets, support doesn't seem willing to reimburse you as well
currently support only does a copy / paste of the latest announcement saying a general comp will come and "nothing was lost" π
I see tge maintenance didn;t fix anything. Surprised? Not with Scopely
Scopely doesnβt care, because they donβt have to, I think that is their business model. As long as money flows in from the junk they push, just silence us on discord and ignore tickets. The fact that folks still spend is the real question
Scopely currently setting up another ark to put out the flames
Tomorrow will be the 4th emercency maintenance, the cycle ends in 8th with a trivia event
Wanna make players happy..Comp chest should have all the bps for the reliant.
2nd comp still incoming
Scopely and happy in the same sentence π
Free DTI
Trivia question will be about what new bugs came with which server down
Pause the ARC, fix the problems, release the ARC... Is that too difficult Scopely?
yes
is the lower prices on the game store a glictch as on web store the prices are still the same? oh no, its only some have discount. double checked. they are same on web store
things are bad when the store is messed up
lower prices for what
Don't say anything, scopely will nerf it harder than the DTI store
Hmmm do Buffs Stack? eg I buff with Ceritos then my teammate buffs me with their Ceritos?
different ship buffs stack (exception being fort and max fort don't stack)
cerritos buffs will overwrite the duration
Ok but what if mine is better/more researched than theirs?
when you talk about store/money ...blup! π€
Hey ππ
I managed to finish the βheroicβ maintenance SMSβ¦
The buff effect is based on your research, not the one who buffing
same prices on items, checked wrong tab on web store. but it seems many items have discounted, but it doesnt show discount, just the price as normal price
Interesting. Ok thanks. Makes sense I suppose.
should we expect the prices to remain or is this a way of compensating in scopelys mind, temporary discount on some items? π
or is it an actual bug and prices should not be lower π
take a screenshot
nah, i let ppl buy the cheaper ones if they notice it. let scopely sort them selves out
Hmmmm so If I buff a player with no Ceritos research do they get anything? @silver parcel @minor furnace
A StFC " Happy Hour " ππΌππΌππΌ
Just a cool icon by their name
The player being buffed by the cerritos will only get bonuses based on their own research
Same goes for the Titan (exception to the critical damage bonus)
99$ pack should only be $10 and a 20$ pack should only be 1$. That's more realistic valuation of this games offerings as it continually underperforms and rug pulls it's player base.
Is it safe to claim augment chests now?
i have had no issues claiming them, slight delay at times, but it is giving me the stuff
My only issue is claim delay myself.
So no research no buff? not even just a bacis Lv1?
The cerri doesn't have any base bonuses. The titanA does. So the latter will get something even with no research.
We need a Claim ALL button ποΈ
If you want to buff a player, use the Titan
Especially if they don't own a cerritos themselves
Ive spend 8mln yesterday and Got nothing
Ok thanks for the info. I assume that applies for the Defiant as well?
Assume yes. I need to look that up
A $149aud pack is only Β£75 for me as I'm in the UK and the exchange rate is in my favour
That is a yes
Ok thanks.
Can't be pimped unless they pimp their research
Then they will be blessed by Sisko's hand
And that would go with Rifts as well. No Anti-Gorn ship no mats so cant use rift.
I don't normally see anything at the $125AUD price point though. Have any of yours adjusted as well?
Is this worth it for a new player or should I wait till Iβm higher level to start spending?
No? Where do you get $125?
No
Either way, it still works out cheaper if you were in the UK but on the apac store
Instead of being in the UK and the UK store
Is the game playable yet guys?
UK packs are Β£99
So should i wait it out till im higher level? Iβm so confused about what I should be doing to be honest
That is always the question. lol But Yes.
No need to spend anything till at least Ops 40+, personally apart from buying an extra research slot and build slot I've spent nothing and i'm ops 51.
That's good advice ππΌ,
I'm free two play L42 with 2 Tier1 and 1 at T2 locked Faction's faction
Oh ok thank you. So should I just get the extra research slot?
i spent but on shiny things i wanted
Do new players get two research slots for free? or was that buildings?
Don't spend anything until they have the current issues fixed
Game seems less laggy now
Hard to explain. But itβs the ones not spending that are crashing the servers π
Find missions in system's, do dailies and events
Join a good Alliance, join Armada's for Armada credits
If you want to, but what you need to take into account is running out of resources and latinum if you plow through it all too quickly. I use one slot for a long term build/research and another slot for things I don't want to wait for.
Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... What are you trying to do crash the servers? lmao
I know, but they need to be on top of the game instead of 5 steps behind
Btw i see in shop second permanent builder is 6β¬ but i cannot find second permanent lab, only 99β¬ pack.. isnβt there 6β¬ pack for lab as well????
Personal theory:
D (arc runner) is gathering data for loop. Because adjustments will be made. No doubt. I just hope they are almost done. Hurts everyone
Game is perfectly playable and probably more enjoyable (due to sense of actual accomplishment) by NOT spending. Iβm ops 62 and nearly f2p ($70 lifetime spent, mostly in the early months before I knew better).
Yeah running out of latum is what just happened to me. I rushed too much and missed out on dailyβs for instructer Spock
So i assume there isnβt cheap pack for second research?
Nice. I canβt lie I was getting kinda stressed with the p2w aspect. I tried to do some mining to get some stuff to upgrade my ships but i kept getting attacked.
Is there any guides for low levels?
In station and buildings i see under the station enhancements a third builder unlock (because I already have a second) for Β£20, second research will be under research as I see an extra research queue for Β£20 (all in game so not sure about website)
get in an alliance
Most players only attack you if there's something to gain. Others attack indiscriminately.
To avoid the attacks from the former, try to keep your cargo amounts to below the protected cargo value of your ships.
most servers have rules on miners
Mine Lat and refine it it'll take time but you will become self sufficient,
You could always ask someone for opc Lat or attack it .?
So 23β¬ for second research?
No you have to pay for extra
And 6β¬ for second builder?
more are useful low level
once you get higher you are using speedups or waiting a year
that just means 1 slot unlocked out of 4 slots overall
No. You can have 4 slots.
Oh okπ
in the hopes that they have you hooked so you spend more
each slot costs more
Unity bp event just appeared with 1 day 2hrs left
Yes but second builder is 6β¬ and second research is 23β¬
What level are you?
ops 61 here... same deal.. dual events just popped up
They should start giving 2nd builder for free its just 5$
A lot of new players got the 2nd queue a couple years ago.
tbh imo 2nd builder aint even worth until g6+
Daym
Wish i had that...
only free thing i got that mattered was the cube
Offers change, new players these days get the boldly go events and some new trainings.
So went to bed with 1 Battlepass mission, this morning woke up to complete Unity Battlepass mission. Any info on why a 2nd was added or was it always there and just missing on my screen till now? @silver parcel
It just appeared
why did unity just start?
Interesting
Your cooked π
did not appear for an ops42 ally, is this ops locked BP?
at that point just get the last research q lol
I'd try rebooting if you don't see it. Either way, it's early. Should last until the normal time though.
thank you, i'll pass it on
You sure they didn't purchase it π cause even tho I haven't been playing for 5 + years i have been playing for 2 year and half
Someone's alive lol
Always have been
π€« dont trigger slowmode
I didnβt.
missed you HD, how's life?
im about to make my own π
Living the dream thank you, yourself?
enjoying the holidays, can't complain π
has anyone else been gaining their Spheres from the chests? im sure i had 173k yesterday and i claimed another 40k today
i was just thinking last night that the shenanigans might summon you, lol
Two BP events at the same time - woo!
Pot luck whether you get chest rewards these days
Can you give us the rest, tooβ¦then I can polish off the arc in one go and skip the next few weeks.
Joachim. Heβs the man. And itβs only t4. For a few more hours π
Yo @stark fjord your best friend hd is online say hi π
im getting quite p'd off, been arguing with support since this arc launch. keep getting generic responses telling me that chest rewards are being awared but slowly. told them repeatedly that 4 days waiting for the Uncommon SP is not slowly...
I guess they mean it will arrive a month later lol
i mean, it's faster than mantis comp, so it could be worse
and now im guessing my spheres havent been awared for 4 days either and i just havent noticed
The support can be very bad at thier job like i had to make 3 tickets for 1 task in tournament they still ...well did a bad job
I disagree, their job is to say "works as intended", and they are doing that with perfection
What happened is i did a task forgot to collect it i did a ticket told them exact time etc what task they told me i collected it π after 3rd they manage to figure out i didn't but doesn't end there what they gave is 10k points , 12k re roll and 600 tournament credits ( 600 is wrong ammount ) but well i just needed points for alliance so didn't bother
What ur back?
Attention commanders all BP events will 28hrs as we are unable to provide you with stable game environment. Thank you Big S
P.S. *** Buy more Packs***
The game is broken because you arenβt spending enough money
