[cold summit]

Hard doing my first solo wave. Probably should set up the ships better

[dull mason]

O'Dear,
I don't want you to get in trouble..

[cold summit]

Still makes me panic but at lest on one is watching

[twilit lintel]

how would that get me in trouble when its part of discord

[dull mason]

Yeah,
But not StFC 💁🏼‍♂️

[twilit lintel]

yeah and even the cm posted stuff not stfc

[cold summit]

Oh you can’t talk about anything else here

[twilit lintel]

odd cuz i posted ity many times when cms and mods was here

they even made a comment on it sayin wow

plus i posted so many non related things in here

[dull mason]

Maybe your stealthy

I can talk about a podcast by the creators of welcome to night Vale because they are going to do Star Trek. They are discussing at the moment how they are going to work out what the best episode and the worst episode is I think they are just doing next gen at the moment because they are familiar with it. The best worst.

[dull mason]

I said chit chat and got red balled

[twilit lintel]

well in some places that might mean somethin else

[dull mason]

It's a common saying in the uk, with a cup of tea

[cold summit]

Don’t want to get blue balled

[twilit lintel]

i see

[twilit lintel]

thats only if u have not spent time with ur mate LOL

[cold summit]

Oh gosh was that the tea alarm?

Somehow I managed to launch the game in portrait mode but it rotated and locked in landscape when I rotated my phone

Oof.. I have not seen that since the first DS9 arc

[quaint osprey]

I was able to play the game in portrait at one point

The logs looked really wierd but I could go through everything I normally would just scrunched up weirdly

Got a video but ran out of space on my phone so those vids/pics are on my computer

[gilded geode]

Cool, game doesn't launch since the update. Good job Scopely.

[sweet atlas]

What device are you using

[gilded geode]

pc

[sweet atlas]

What windows?

[gilded geode]

11

[sweet atlas]

The unity 6 probably broke it for you but that will get fixed, your one of the lucky ones

[gilded geode]

why lucky?

[sweet atlas]

Chromebook users, windows 7 users, and anyone using iso older than 13 can kiss the game goodbye

[gilded geode]

What a ridiculous company

[sweet atlas]

They just screwed so many people, some of whom have spent thousands, I really hope there's a lawsuit on them for this

Probably 25 precent of the player base used that stuff

[gilded geode]

yeah, lots of older players and older hardware, stfc ain't cutting edge

[sweet atlas]

The chrombook thing is the biggest killer

Lotta people played on chromebook

[gilded geode]

I wonder if they even tested it

Who knows with Scopely

[sweet atlas]

Its scopely they definatly did and then ignored the feedback

[gilded geode]

Ya.

[sweet atlas]

Can you even revert game engines?

They stuck with unity 6 right?

[gilded geode]

no, it would want to update before it would let you play

repair didn't work, gonna try uinstall/reinstall

or maybe I'll just leave it uninstalled, lol

[sweet atlas]

Thats not a horrible idea

[gilded geode]

uninstall and fresh reinstall to a new drive location worked

[opal meadow]

Where's the best place to grind 5* ship parts

[stark fjord]

pm epic data for gold hostiles ?!?!

or picard, bev data?

I am 95/100 from getting tng data tomorrow I will get him

also how do we get snw t'pring?

also we need snw spocks mom in the game she is hot 🤣🤣

[humble orbit]

Yellows aren't "hostiles." Neither crew would work.

[silver parcel]

no, no, t'pring is from 55 syndicate+

[stark fjord]

snw Amanda Grayson the next epic officer 🙂

[stark fjord]

how many packs to get there from 41?

so I need 48,470,00 xp to syn level 56

so 49 packs I need or $4900

[humble orbit]

The store reorganization looks much better.

[stark fjord]

now all they need is to update old packs to scale to highers ops like g5 and g6 like the rodinium particle elite only gives 7600 at ops 62 I feel that is way undervalued for my level I should be getting like 100k at my level

[whole robin]

56+

[silver parcel]

you pull shards at 55

56 is a complete unlock

[stark fjord]

do we get a 4th free fleet commander sloot in higher syndicate? and if so what level?

[silver parcel]

last level gives another slot

[stark fjord]

instant warp for 3*- 6* faction ships at syn level 61 🤯🤯🤯

[civic geyser]

So as more and more go into G6 it would be nice if there where more nodes and G6 freebooters

[grim thistle]

yeah finding free spots is tough - unless you slap the globe on the selkie and go for higher resist systems when in low 60s

the silent nebula spots tend to be always occupied

[cobalt pollen]

Another day, still no news from scopley about fixing the login issuse, guess they don't mind losing a large part of their player base to other companies games.

[queen jolt]

are you on pc version?

[warm root]

Pc Issues not mobile

[forest fable]

@queen jolt We have players on PC and Tablet that have been reporting they cant access the game since Scopely secretly updated the game engine to unity 6

and all they could find trying to resolve it was this on google

[warm root]

You need a high end device to use unity 6

[forest fable]

Yeah, and while i'm rocking a I9 13900K and RTX 4080 with windows 11, most of my alliance isn't

[queen jolt]

thanks alwz, we are aware of the login issues.

In the meantime, they can try these steps too

1. Remove the community mod
2. Open the Launcher and Uninstall the game;
3. Close the Launcher;
4. Delete the content of the following folders;
5. C:\Users<your user name>\AppData\Local\Star Trek Fleet Command\cache
6. C:\Users<your user name>\AppData\LocalLow\Digit Game Studios Ltd_\Star Trek Fleet Command
7. Open the Launcher and Install the game;

[red stag]

Ok to you guys @ ops 70+ to upgrade to ops 70 does every building need to be lvl 69?

[jaunty oriole]

yes sir most but not all like defence platforms warehouses generators ect

[civic geyser]

If that’s correct

[jaunty oriole]

but requires all others also to get there

you need all that if that makes sense

[red stag]

Yes as I thought thanks guys 👊👊👍👍

No point in going 69 yet then may as well get everything to lvl 68 1st

[warped turtle]

So question I have an odd situation with crew setups im trying to work out, so have Serene Squall curr t2/lvl 10 and i need those drops from epics so i sent it out few times a day to auto-grind with the ability active to get them.

I have been using in Captains chair SNW Pike with SNW Black Ops M'benga & SNW Montgomary Scott officers, but these later 2 are for flashpoint vs the SULI hostiles their abilities dont activate in the battle log but they do provide 5% synergy to Pike.

Now in order to fix this i swapped to still SNW Pike Captain but SNW M'benga & SNW James Kirk, these have 2% synergy with pike but their abilities activate.

Yet sure the ship survives a full 1 hour 5 mins of buff time in both cases, but with the former setup it has 1.32 mill hull hhp left which well looks like half but is actually like nie 2/3rd, but the new setup it has just 156k hull hpp left, like is the 3% extra synergy worth so much more? whats going on lol ?

Pike is just lvl 5, Black ops mbenga is also 5, mont scott is lvl 10, but in same case, with Pike non black ops mbenga &james kirk, its same as my non black ops mbenga is also 5 and james kirk also 10 lol, so power shouldnt be coming into play

So i guess the question is are their anti-flashpoint abilities actually activating vs SULI hostiles but not showing in log causing this massive difference or is the 3% extra synergy worth more then the sum total of the two later ones ability bonuses concentrated on Pike alone?

[thorn fjord]

The Suliban are not Flashpoint hostiles, those would be the Dropships

[dull mason]

https://tenor.com/view/hello-old-people-computer-technology-biff-gif-12085559

[warped turtle]

well that's what i thought but that would mean the extra 3% synergy bonus on snw pike makes an hours auto-grinding serene squall use nie only 1/3rd of hull hhp alone vs 99% dead without lol

[dull mason]

Growing old while the game load's up

[warped turtle]

only got kirk, so not that

[dull mason]

Happy confusion day.. haha

[warped turtle]

its just i done see where the massive dif is coming from logically lol, unless their abilities are secretly activating in former setup

alas game often laggy

[dull mason]

This so-called friendly game won't upload past 35%, Scopley have activated The weekend server's early today......

[dull mason]

10+ minutes of Adjusting..

and 20+ mninutes of complaining

[fading belfry]

upgraded the andriod app this am. my goodness, look at all the new bugs

[timber vortex]

Is there maintenance running in the background on the servers? I'm having issues with extreme lag and now I can't log it

[fading belfry]

I don't see any announcement, so chances are good there is maintenance running in the background

[timber vortex]

Anyone else having issues?

[warm root]

If your not having issues your not playing the game right 😂

[warm pivot]

this game is an issue ^^

[twilit lintel]

this game been an issue yet we keep coming back so i guess we love the issues

i love making fun of it, yeah ^^

[clever coral]

Is the transfer to unity 6 done? If yes than this game is lost and any improvement will not happening ever...

New bugs are keep popping up... Revduce said it should help... Cant confirm any...

[twilit lintel]

[twilit lintel]

lol

[normal elm]

clearly unintended mechanic 😄

[twilit lintel]

oh and the lag

the lag is bad

really bad

hittin ships from across the system bad

[normal elm]

100% of people who uninstalled the game did not suffer from game lag, that is a fact

[twilit lintel]

i unstalled and reinstalled i still get the yellow signal

sometimes

[normal elm]

this may be the cause of your problem right here

[late ermine]

I have even without doing anything game keeps telling me i have network issue 🤣

[twilit lintel]

knowing full well its the server ik its not me fiber optics dont give me any issues lol

[late ermine]

Yea same i got near 1gb ps on sim 🤣 its funny seeing a network issue on a game that hardly consume internet

[twilit lintel]

this is very hard to believe

[whole robin]

Small alliances get shafted yet again... #2 by power on our server but only 25 members (highest average power by far)

[vapid ferry]

"We actually see G3 and G4 players play more between tentpoles than during them.

We’re changing course.

New content moving forward will be focused on the higher levels, where the challenge needs to scale and the game needs to offer fresh experiences. The September update starts at Ops 45 as an introduction, but the experience takes off in the 50s. We will shift the focus of updates to Ops 51+ in the following months."

So, you acknowledge that 40s don't engage as much (because the content is aimed at higher levels), and you're "changing course" by doubling down and only doing new content for higher levels? O.o

[formal dragon]

@queen jolt @heady moon 3 quick questions. 1) GS31 parts in Event stores when? 2) G5 scrapping when?

3. when can we get converter for normal speedups to sigma speedups?

Please and thank you.

[whole robin]

g5 scrapping was already on test server so soon

[solemn plaza]

Already being asked about.

Not his year according to the new thingy.

And I wouldnt think they'd ever let us exchange normal speeds for Sigma speeds. (As cool as that would be)

[distant mica]

That’s a really nice AI written blog post scopely posted repeating the same topic half a dozen times worded slightly different yet still meaningless

[shrewd obsidian]

Summary: G5 scrapping delayed because it would be too helpful to players. So much for doing better.

[gusty creek]

Same old 💩

[heady moon]

I don't think that's exactly what was said in the video....

[remote portal]

Nerfing scrapping rewards, especially for G5, is NOT exactly a change your players want.

Scrapping is one of the only ways to get decent ship parts for your grade!

[twilit skiff]

"New content moving forward will be focused on the higher levels...." no nead to read any further then 🫠

[heady moon]

Yeah....

[hearty mauve]

The GM cant event write a blog post properly

[remote portal]

If you understand that, why doesn't the GM?

[rough heart]

The text blog for scrapping has a duplicated section it seems @heady moon

[flat karma]

instead of allowing us to scrap g5 ships to get g6 parts...they want us to spend $$$$$

[twilit skiff]

im shocked

[hearty mauve]

Didnt like how G4 Scrapping boosted G5 progression 🤣

[queen jolt]

where 👀

[hearty mauve]

Just apply CE % to scrap rewards... "easy"

[thorny fossil]

"we want to give content to g3/g4 players" - "heck yea, new content starts in G5! Let's roll bois!"

[dull mason]

Disappointed

[rough heart]

"More updates on the future of scrapping will come later this year.ess expensive to build Grade 4 ships ", looks like there was additional information that was either cut/paste wrong, or added incorrectly.

[distant mica]

I mean that’s what happens when you have AI write it for you

[boreal oasis]

Ops 51+ "we'll see you in november"...

[whole robin]

wait g5 scrapping got postponed?

[rough heart]

The 2nd to last paragraph "Still the first point still stands. We need players to be able to clear their shipyard. We considered a form of “scuttle” for ships that destroys them instantly with no payout, but that was deemed problematic." Duplicating information from the paragraph 2 above

What about my other questions?

hence the "about" 😂

[dull mason]

👉🏼💰

[hearty mauve]

Working as precise as Scopely...

[teal owl]

If they think this section is going to go over well with the player base then scopely fundamentally do not understand what players are saying to them. Simple as that.

[distant mica]

“Scrapping made things too easy and we were not hitting the monetization goals we projected as a result”

[sly torrent]

ya you cant scrap your g5 because scopely does not want you to get progresion mats from that, they want you to get the mats you need from exploring the galaxy and meeting other players word for word, haha, cant wait until they explain that rofl.

[dull mason]

We don't even have a trade Swap store,

how is your kumari doing @dull mason 😏

[remote portal]

Scrapping has been a key strategy for progression for years. It's how I survived g4 before all these payout upgrades. It's not a bad thing!

[dull mason]

Blah blah

[wheat crown]

On the upside, Rev can just copy his last rant video and post it again in response to today’s release

[twilit skiff]

gotem

[pseudo finch]

Absolutely Scopely is tone-deaf as usual. Literally hear the players asking for MORE scrapping and they're GOING IN THE EXACT OPPOSITE DIRECTION

[slate harness]

thought i was having a stroke

[whole robin]

I hope they riot again in the VIP server over the G5 scrapping postponement for no valid reason

[formal dragon]

If they aren’t bringing G5 scrapping this year then guess what it won’t be making me play more. I’ll be playing even less than I do already. They’ve already pushed me to BP only because of their arc nonsense.

I don't expect G5 scrapping to be a core progression... might make up say... 10-20% of my rare mat income?

but every bit counts

From a marketing standpoint, why would you come out with an update that says what you’re not doing (caring about lower level players, G5 scrapping) without balancing that with the cool stuff you ARE doing. There is nothing but vagueness on the new stuff for 51+ that is coming. So amateurish and tone deaf.

[vocal kindle]

completely clueless, forcing people to ops up, making more "heroic" events, no g5 scrapping, come on scopely get a freaking clue

[queen jolt]

sorry mike, no eta yet on that

[whole robin]

some of these I haven't levelled yet but I would scrap all except 1 of each g5 epic

well and the specialty ships that are in between 😛

[heady moon]

I think technically, it was announced earlier this year... not last year. But your point stands.

[hot token]

Also going to be annoying for the G3 players when they stop giving the choice rewards. They're not going to start buying packs reguarly, they're just going to quit.

[weary mango]

you'll get them when event store ends and everyone has minimum t9 gs31 😂

[warm root]

I’d scrap the whole lot

[weary mango]

so approx 4 months from now

[gray lintel]

Postponing G5 scrapping because you don't want to reward players who invested into the game core mechanics, because of you introducing huge cost efficiencies... So
You thought about allowing people to invest time effort and resources and thoughts scuttle was a viable option, seriously..
That's not scrapping

[hearty mauve]

If the Reliant focused events give reliant BPs... then... they might be interesting

[pseudo finch]

Once again Scopely screwed up and locks out the low level players

[whole robin]

there was some Q&A or something at the end of last year where they announced g7, and I thought g5 scrapping as well, for this year

[warm root]

Nothing new been locked out since lvl 1

[heady moon]

It wasn't postponed because we don't want to reward players.

[distant mica]

Maybe they need to lose more whales before their overlords start to question the people in charge

[vocal kindle]

thats exactly what it reads as

[heady moon]

It does not.

[gray lintel]

December 2024 in 2924 review and 2025 roadmap when Connor was not GM.. but hey short memory

[pseudo finch]

It was postponed because Scopely can't control it's executives from chasing money

[limber wharf]

Reward players how exactly? Players have invested in them to get something out of it how does that even upset the balance ?

[hot token]

I have a suspicion the "events" for the Reliant will be the one upgrade the Reliant event they've already made.

[sly torrent]

the events are always the same

[weary mango]

so im curious why it was postponed? whats the main reason?

[sly torrent]

spend spend spend

[twilit lintel]

[weary mango]

balancing? or just implementation?

[gray lintel]

Did you not read, says scrapping is easy part but difficulty is in working out rewards to give back in materials and parts, can you not read

[thorny fossil]

but what do when they have to delay G7 and can't milk G6 players anymore?!

[sly torrent]

remember when the event was buy this prime for a reward not it is buy 3 intercpetor ship packs for reward

zero shame

[whole robin]

they basically called G4->g5 scrapping imbalanced 🤣

but by the time you have the excess mats & ship parts to build g4 ships en masse you are already g6

[weary mango]

i mean g4 scrapping was pretty vroken 🤣

[whole robin]

so it's not really affecting progression

[lusty olive]

https://tenor.com/view/muppet-show-muppets-statler-and-waldorf-waldorf-and-statler-statler-gif-25739965

[vocal kindle]

yet i cant get enough epic mats to do anything, there is like zero other way to get epic mats other than scrapping

[whole robin]

it just gives me more g5 mats to chase mat spend SLBs

I've built more g5 epics than I have g4 epics due to lack of parts income...

[gray lintel]

We don't want players to use scrapping as a mechanic of progression through g6 like players did with G4 scrapping, yet want to reward players for investing time into playing the game as it was intended.

Do they even know what was intended?

[polar ravine]

https://tenor.com/view/baseball-fail-gif-18652824

[whole robin]

watch them make it like g4 surveys where scrapping gives almost nothing compared to combat ships

[thorny fossil]

your money -> their pockets - simple as that

[distant mica]

Remember when their old player guides positioned scraping as a means of progress?

[limber wharf]

Well not anymore 😂

[woeful remnant]

g5 scrapping is a risk? what a joke

you're obviously remembering wrong since it wasnt supposed to be 😉

”raised the value of scrapping far beyond what was intended”. Too much rewards so they scrapped the scrapping? Thats how i read that. And others as well

[weary mango]

are they just worried that scrapping will give alot of sigma to us and we buy less packs or smt 😂

[woeful remnant]

i am almost left the game after 70 lol lost interest

[gray lintel]

So guessing transogen forge scrapping speed was kinda useless...

[whole robin]

For now, while we adjust how scrapping functions, we will be giving all players additional ship slots in October. There will be additional updates on our progress on this later in the year.

translation- on our internal test servers abit of g6 mats every 30 days for scrapping a g5 epic was too much so we're going to nerf it internally before we release it

[distant mica]

They just have the AI from tron running the show these days

[vocal kindle]

yeah lets force people to level up when all the players are screaming to slow down

[whole robin]

currently there aren't enough sources of g6 rare mats in the game, not compared to the amounts required, needs to be more free g6 uncommon-> rare conversion tokens if nothing else

[gray lintel]

That shouldn't really be that hard for Scopely. They have piles of data and years of experience on the subject. And when has this game ever had something "too precise"?

[twilit lintel]

https://tenor.com/view/football-tackle-nfl-players-team-gif-1688726102449242250

[naive blade]

I'll repeat what others have said as an ops 67 player. NOT having g5 scrapping is a massive miss.

Yes, it accelerates the progression but that's the point. The players have invested time and effort into efficiency and continue to grind hard to have the faction credits to produce g5 ships for this mechanic.

G6 has mostly been about jumping up to the next ship grade as fast as you can to make the cube grow. No one cares about the g6 ships themselves. There's very little for us to do beyond just saving for the next ops. G5 scrapping was going to help and get more folks to the G7 premium area.

The monthly requirement to spend mats to unlock officers has gone through the roof so the only thing we can do is ops progression. Hindering us doesn't want to make us engage more with the game.

If the goal is to slow down g6 we need the g6 ships to matter, today they don't. Give us research that gives us flat increases to the base stats of the ships (like you did with the meridian protected cargo back in the day) for things like dpr and cargo.

Give us a reason to reengage with the ships versus just pushing ops to grow our cubes if we're not getting scrapping.

[woeful remnant]

the downhill of scoply already started xD top alliance quit now this annoucement of g5 scrap lol lost total interest

[thorny fossil]

written by AI at that

[hearty mauve]

something weird with numbers since the engine update
Also had DS9 show up as DS 9️⃣ in mission text 😄

I'm not the whining type, but this is a disaster. A complete and utter disaster, from the c-suite jargon at the beginning, to the repeating paragraphs, to the ideas presented. Giving more rewards to whale alliances will break the little community feeling that is left, and the only thing holding this game together

[pulsar frost]

Glad I was on the toilet taking a 💩 reading that update

[vocal kindle]

its not like you can scrap a ship in a day, it takes a week+ per ship, thats not fast progression, thats what it was meant to do

[polar ravine]

https://tenor.com/view/the-office-michael-scott-brave-face-gif-5377249

[whole robin]

at 66+ you end up with a bunch of g6 uncommon mats you can't use because a bunch of stuff starts taking ONLY rare, not a combination of rare and uncommon, oh and we just got throttled lol
GG scopely get a minor win by updating to unity 6 then throw all the goodwill away by simultaneously upsetting low grade players (because they aren't getting updates anymore) and g6 players because g5 scrapping is postponed, basically only g5 players weren't insulted with this state of the game

[woeful remnant]

why bother with a video . when nothing scoply doing to help player base . without helping how they expect to increase revenue haha

[midnight sleet]

No scrapping..68 and think I will continue to coast. Nothing till November and no scrapping, yeah nah

[hearty mauve]

only for me recently since the PC update

[weary mango]

aha wheres the g6 nodes, forgotten about as usual

[lusty olive]

G5 scrapping is one of the biggest complaints in the game period. They definitely need to figure it out this year imo

[gray lintel]

Since it was promised and him communicating all I see is beks name on that... So no personal updates whatsoever

[formal dragon]

Can we at least get them in the next one? It’s well overdue.

[pseudo finch]

I don't see how Scopely is using any kind of logic when they're clearly going directly against what the player base has found and has been told BY SCOPELY is the way to progress.

Breaking progression and breaking promises is a serious way to shoot yourself in the foot and make people leave the game, not recommend your game, and most importantly: not spend.

[vocal kindle]

i sense the opposite

[weary mango]

shouldnt u do that on your own discord, like tell them which acc u are

[midnight sleet]

Ai summary"Ops 51+ players are stuck waiting until November for real content. September’s update barely scratches the surface—just a tease at Ops 45. Meanwhile, top-tier fleets sit idle, shipyards jammed, scrapping delayed, and events trimmed down. We’re grinding through recycled missions while the real game is months away."

[stark latch]

With a focus on alliances, will you start punishing the biggest alliances for using exploits, cheats, accessing restricted data and harassing and bullying smaller ones?

More focus on alliances is a good thing but when whale alliances feel threatened, they will just harass and bully any potential threats.

[gray lintel]

Yeah and that whole post basicly says nothing about flashpoints... Or arc events going forwards, no detail just oh we are thinking about doing this and we'll we will see how it goes.

And nothing about anything that's occurred since his last update... And how it affects players.

Couldn't even post a warning about requirements of unity 6

[pseudo finch]

Not to mention that now they're going to be BORED and more likely to just punch down and abuse other players in general because there isn't any content.

They did not think this Star Trek Day United Effort Meta - AMS through too much, did they? If you have an alliance of under 40 members, you can not meet the daily requirement to complete the event

[boreal plover]

i have not unlocked the reliant at all. was too low during the event.

the game is good at encouraging me not to play by making things too obnoxious to acquire

[whole robin]

<@&509690795536941056> make sure you remind whoever is in charge of the scrapping 'balancing' that ultimately the ratio of scrapping say g5->g6 mats is balanced by the fact that you are limited by the scrap times of the actual ships themselves, so balance it around scrap time -> scrap output, input doesn't matter when you are time limited by scrap time & scrap slots

[unreal root]

for real? LMMMMMAAOOOOO

[queen jolt]

yes, its a known issue 😅

[humble orbit]

Alliance events are generally balanced around 40 active players. If yours is smaller than that, you're playing on hard mode.

[cinder onyx]

IS THAT A JOKE ? https://startrekfleetcommand.com/news/state-of-the-game-september-2025/ is this and this : "
"Simply put, G4 ships have become cheaper to build, but the rewards from scrapping into G5 haven’t changed—creating an imbalance.

This has had a big effect on how players move through G5, and it risks turning scrapping into a main path of progression. That’s not the experience we want. As we look ahead to G6, our goal is to make sure progression comes from exploring the galaxy and engaging with other players, not running scrapping queues.

That said, clearing shipyard space is still a must. We looked at solutions like a “scuttle” option with no payout, but that didn’t feel right."

I don't want that. Does anyone here wants this ? NO. If Scopely does this : I QUIT the game and never come back. Many will follow.

[whole robin]

I just figured ya'll were doing it on purpose to avoid some coding bug that putting actual numbers in the announcement was causing 🤣

[dry forge]

Basically they wanna force more spending and punish the smaller spenders make the lower ops move into higher ops before they are ready this game is turning into dam pay to play yall must not listening to a dam thing the players are saying greed pure simple greed

[frank loom]

Nothing in that blog sounds like anything different improvement whatsoever. Sounds like just business as usual for Scopely.

It's sad that we can't do multiple types of Armada at the same time.

Read the announcement again, they're turning up monetization even more. That's why scrapping is "bad", they're going into full squeezing mode

[humble orbit]

They haven't, they fully know that smaller alliances will fail to finish. That's the point of balancing around 40.

Yes but I’d like to be able to solo a formation armada not one leg of it

I hoped this would bring genuine improvements to the game, but realistically expected Scopely to do the bare minimum. Somehow Scopely didn’t even reach that low bar. 🙈

I agree, and their statement of wanting lower ops to progress more, while leaving G6 out of the mix, no scrapping, and no way to progress without spending money... obtaining Speedups is a joke, and using lat to pay for speeding up a task costs 300% more than it did prior to G6. I have been stunted in my progression, and refuse to pay any more money.

[dull mason]

Sadly nope,
I was blocked/ grayed out from activating a Dom Solo

[silver parcel]

It's a prime

So the option is there

[midnight sleet]

@queen jolt on hi! Nice to some one after 2 years to reply to me

[humble orbit]

I wish it was only 300% more... 1 day in G5 is 300 lat, 1 sigma day in G6 is 1.5m lat.

[gilded spire]

My mistake... either way the cost is absolutely ridiculous

[twilit lintel]

when will treasury come back i;'m sooo close to gettin 4k i can taste my 30m lat

[neat sedge]

Not trying to be the 💩head in the room but this is how players are interpreting what was released with that update. Are you allowed to share what the reason is for the delay for transparency?

[whole robin]

Scopely GM be like Lex Luthor today 🤣

[humble orbit]

It is, and so far, it feels like that's the limiting factor to my growth. The only upside is that speedups can be farmed, so effort is the only thing holding me back.

[median meteor]

so they want to push G3 to level up, but wont give us all the ships in the events?

[fickle hornet]

If there are events that help us acquire Reliant BPs, then it's fine, but somehow I doubt Scopely will do that...

[midnight sleet]

G5 is saving everything for g6 pulls. Then you hit mid 60s and it's full coast...well if your a BP player

[humble orbit]

I think we need to wait and see what they're doing for september regarding ship progression.

[twilit lintel]

that gm was prob some guy they hired to read the cue cards

[weary mango]

greeat for arenas

[humble orbit]

The biggest ship change for g3 is probably reliant. It needs to have sourcing beyond the drip, it's just not enough.

[dull mason]

https://tenor.com/view/fall-hole-gif-10741478

[neat sedge]

But also in G6 we do get WAY more latinum, while it has been a bottleneck it seems to balance out

[median meteor]

all we can do is wait, but the language in the GM note is so not comforting

[midnight sleet]

No incentive for BP players to buy the BP if your a g6 player especially nothing till November, the jump at 66 is huge and the BP is peeing in the ocean

[humble orbit]

If there's nothing done to the reli, then G3 seems wrecked.

[twilit lintel]

in 3-4 months scopley will increase their profit by 500%

[thorny fossil]

what do you mean no incentive, they just postponed G5 scrapping as an incentive!

[vocal kindle]

sure you can, it just costs $100

[midnight sleet]

Works the opposite, the BP gives you scraps, need thousand of rare to progress, why spend real money when I can just wait and coast and get for free, no new content, just more grinds. I am top 15 player on my server and I just buy the BP

[twilit lintel]

i wonder how many cms and mods in here really are f2p and payers

https://tenor.com/view/eric-winter-the-rookie-therookie-chenbradfordsgifs-gif-3170765433297996865

[solemn plaza]

I wonder why you seem so concerned with the spending habits of other people 🤔

[hot token]

"it risks turning scrapping into a main path of progression. That’s not the experience we want."

Well, then Scopely needs to:

• change the prime researches that require one grade higher of mats than you can refine (or buy)
• take out scrap to progress from the Stella
• take out scrap to progress from the Revenant
• change the Franklin/Franklin-A progression method
• change the Dvor/Feesha progression method

It may not be what Scopely wanted, but it's what they built into the game over time.

[midnight sleet]

You need more speedups I got the RSS, so time is my friend and am not grinding MU for a day or two speed up when I can just wait

[boreal plover]

because if most of the staff are payers (or probably get free credit) they don't experience the game like the people who don't want to throw hundreds of dollars at a stupid mobile game play

[queen jolt]

I'm not sure if we have f2p mods/ecom hmmmm, maybe AT?

[neat sedge]

It could also have to do with G7, when G7 is released some people will be focused on that and others will want to progress to G6, hence when G5 scrapping will be released. Just a possible thought to the why

[twilit lintel]

cuz its fun to see people waste money on a game that is failing them over and over

[boreal plover]

the game doesn't even teach how to do scrapping. like it's just a module in my base to me.

i was told you need to build the ship, level it up, then scrap it? that's a lot of XP expense

also TWO MINUTE SLOW MODE? that's a great way for them to admit they messed something up and people are mad

the thousands of players leaving the game was not obvious enough, nothing posted anywhere is going to change anything.

I am camping for a bit but probably gonna rush 66 or 67 next arc no stoping after that 🤣 until 70 ......on a side note we have been waiting for g5 scrap and g6 (60+) freebooters for so long but the update just keep getting pushed back maybe its time 👀 to finnally implement it

The XP expense is less of an impact as you progress (depending on ship). Also, there are a lot of things the game will not teach the player to do. Sometimes due to old missions, you will get the explanation well after you've had to figure it out.

They could make the effort to bring back older content events rhat they already ran for lower levels but instead they decided to do the bare minimum and add dumb reliant events and such

What do we want? G5 SCRAPPING! When do we want it? NOW! 😉

[neat sedge]

3....2....1..... dang slowmo LOL ... just saying it would make sense. People should just stop and think for a minute instead of complaining BUT on the same breath Scopely could just say that and it would prevent so much push back

[late ermine]

I mean i will have to see what they do with new events for small players i do think it sounds more beneficial just have to wait and see what its all about it could suck it could be decent just have to...see the execution first

[twilit lintel]

They could make the effort to let us get holodeck missions easier

[thorny fossil]

btw, will the ferengi BP pass/store be adjusted to be a worthy replacement of the end of arc store or y'all happy making players miserable?

[plush lark]

As a player for several years. The rule with scopky is assume it'll be terrible until proven otherwise. Cause that is scoplys history

[hot wave]

You ask like they actually care what us players think. Today’s state of the game post is proof they really don’t.

[late ermine]

Was supposed to come out last arc lol ....i will go crazy if its not next arc

[neat sedge]

Also while G5 scrapping would be great how many players does it affect? I'm about to be ops 70 so I know I am on the lower end of the population for level so they really need to focus on the players that are mid level or all them won't be sticking around and the game will end for everyone I would think?

[thorny fossil]

oh, they're listening. doesn't mean they understand anything at all however

[queen jolt]

hey buddy I sent you a dm

[whole robin]

depends on the server, on the older double digit servers a large portion of the playerbase is already 70

on older servers a majority of players are G5 or G6 on newer servers a majority are G3-G5, personally it took me just over a year to go from 1->67 as a moderate spender

[neat sedge]

Yeah that's true too (mine I think is one of the original servers) but we still only have a couple dozen lvl 70s on our server with the majority being g5 and just starting g6

[whole robin]

it only took me a bit over 4 months to go from 1->60 so most of my 1year in the game has been spent in g6 those station Grabthar Hammers make a big difference

[neat sedge]

That's pretty impressive

[whole robin]

but as a g6 player I don't even consider buying packs for the mats- they hardly give any compared to G5 and below, new ships, primes, and battle passes are about all I spend on anymore

[fickle hornet]

You get free XP from autogrinding. I agree the game doesn't teach enough, but join as big of an alliance as will accept you, and learn from them.

[boreal plover]

im in one

games should teach their own mechanics. not rely on user word of mouth

[weary mango]

the last time they taught how to crew a pvp veng, lets just say it was better off being put in the bin

god im making spelling mistakes now 😂

[twilit skiff]

jah join a big alliance and have them play the game for u ... bam bam bam ops 60 ... E to the C

[whole robin]

also they need to make sure they don't release g7 on newer servers right away- server should be at g6 for at least 18 months before ascending to g7, g6 takes a LONGGG time to get thru, a majority of players will take around a year (for active players) to go from 61->70

G5 Ship scrapping = less G6 Ship packs being sold. Won't happen til they get a good population into G7 - just live with it or quit.

[dreamy berry]

stage 11 when?

If the fact that they took away Crucble of War this month is a sign of the 'improvements' to come, we are hosed

@heady moon ?
Translation: "We at $copley are going to Step-up the Pay-wall events for you"

[twilit skiff]

ok we all had a good laugh

[fickle hornet]

I think (and hope and pray) they mean the events will make those loops faster and easier to progress through, since they want us to hurry and get to G6.

[whole robin]

The ops disparity between f2p and p2p players is larger on newer servers because the f2p players haven't had as long to level up, like my server is only 2 or 3 years old whereas the original servers are almost 7 years old

[twilit skiff]

timeouted for what ?

[whole robin]

if they want to do more heroics and ticketed events they need to improve the cost to reward ratio, these $100 for 4 ticket events have been terrible

[timber vortex]

The reduced population is forcing scopley to find ways to increase the lost income the people that left took with them, these week long battle passes for example should have been $10 but are $20 now, and so canceling scraping is another way to keep them from losing income

[opal meadow]

https://tenor.com/view/scopely-everything's-fine-dumpster-fire-gif-4671883081373368328

[twilit skiff]

hello ?

[opal turret]

Im so ducking dissapointed that scopley want to delete the f2p ship sources via scrapping from G5. Its only acceptable if they give us thousads of rare mats and ship parts aswell. 😠

[dreamy berry]

good point. ive been playing 5-6 years in g6 land. at the same time you can level much faster now then 6 years ago

[warm pivot]

if only scopely knew that being in g6 is terribly boring... its hard to keep motivated so slow and boring it has become

[fickle hornet]

No point in beating an old, dead horse. They've already acknowledged Flashpoint was a failure, and it's already been paused to be reworked.

[novel otter]

G7 cash grab in November in time for the Scopely Christmas bonus.
G5 scrapping first quarter 2026.
Maintenance mode 2nd or 3rd quarter 2026

Pretty sure that's the revised road map 🤣

[whole robin]

a ticketed event should give at least double, if not triple, the mats per $ vs just straight up buying a pack, the recent ones have been nowhere near that.

[whole robin]

Sadly I think this game will die within the next 2-3 years, it's been on a downward spiral since I started playing last year, today's post by Conor only reinforces that.

[vapid onyx]

Sadly true, yet they have an obvious income boost STARING them in the face yet REFUSE to go back to it.... LONG AGO they would offer partial unlocks to Specialty ships ...
Anyone who DIDN'T buy the ship right away (for example the Squall) and have been collecting daily parts (now at/past the 1/2 way mark of blueprints) WILL NOT buy a FULL unlock at this point.... BUT MAY consider a 1/2 unlock or 1/4 unlock to speed up unlocking the ship.
Again this is something you ($copley) USED to have long ago.

[frank loom]

That blog further illustrates the tone deafness of them. Most players read that as business as usual.

[whole robin]

not that long ago they had half unlocks for at least some of the ships released within the last year from what I remember, may not permanently be in store though

[hollow wave]

🤣🤣🤣
So instead actually fix the game scopley decided to keep lie and spit on players
We all know what comes next, more lag and more pay to play events
Ridiculous bek continue treat us like we dumb just because we play stfc

[hot wave]

It’ll probably be sooner than that

[neat sedge]

They had 1/2 ship unlocks but that was also before they made it consistent with getting the ship 100 days f2p after release

[warm pivot]

but i wanna point out one very surprising fact... they managed to run a spelling check prior posting that ^^

[vapid onyx]

Notice how they seemingly couldn't even take the time to proofread this section .

[fickle hornet]

That is NOT what the announcement said. You need to read it again...

[little violet]

This alone says ... $$$$

[whole robin]

again maybe if they actually made the rewards from the heroics and $$ ticket events not be absolute garbage..

[twilit lintel]

well this is a company and a company does need cash

[warm pivot]

cash needs to be spend responsibly and reinvested into the product

[dull mason]

We need " hard Star trek Fan's " on our Side

[fading portal]

no scraping of G5 ships "this year" pfft there should be no reason they could not add in G5 scraping before the years out ... BuT they added more "cost efficiency" ... are they for real ... come on man we want G5 scraping ... is that so hard ... before they come out with G7 they should have G6 scraping in place for that as well ... so they need to work not only on stability of the game ... as it is a joke but also add in not only G5 but G6 scraping.

[little violet]

Don't get to happy that just means your hangar will hold more ships

[vapid onyx]

Again .... the POINT is ... if you have been collecting those daily pulls and are 1/2 way there ... are you gonna miraculously decide to drop $99 on a full unlock leaving you 100ish BP that are then useless? OR (obviously not everyone but SOME) would you consider dropping $49 on a 1/2 unlock if you were at that point.
NO BRAINER

[whole robin]

they do but other companies manage to support their games without such blatant cash grabs, so obviously Scopely is doing something wrong (from the player's point of view) but maybe right from their corporate overlord's point of view?

[twilit lintel]

oh it does into monopoly go that is LOL

[warm pivot]

exclusivityphase will be shortened and fomo investors might be discouraged to impuls spend all the time
stop thinking in morally correct ways, its scopely ^^ (they got casinogames, and you know what casinos are for)

[opal turret]

This has had a big effect on how players move through G5, and it risks turning scrapping into a main path of progression. That’s not the experience we want. As we look ahead to G6, our goal is to make sure progression comes from exploring the galaxy and engaging with other players, not running scrapping queues.

[fickle hornet]

I'm not "too happy", I'm just correcting the record. No, I'm not talking about the ship slots, I'm saying they aren't "deleting" scrapping, they're adjusting how it functions. 🤦🏽‍♂️

[tiny tendon]

So the message to younger accounts is no new content until ops 45, which is the same thing that forced them to ops 40 recently, and now many of those guys are regretting it.

[frank loom]

Adjusting down what we get so we have to engage (spend) more.

[midnight turtle]

Never underestimate Scopely doubling down on itself. They clearly DO NOT GET IT

[vapid onyx]

I don't buy that ... the people who were gonna buy that thing day/week1 did it ... you wouldn't lose any significant number of those purchases ... and only have the opportunity to gain MORE purchases if they (after the initial Arc month) offered a partial unlocks option.

[earnest dust]

Whale tears 😭😂

[fickle hornet]

Bro...they just don't want scrapping to be a constant focus for overall progression. It was meant to be a side hobby. They're not deleting it.

Is there any place to increase base hazard resistance other than in the fighting branch of research?

[grizzled ravine]

How does a max Revenant not receive 6* epic and rare resources? Hmm bet there’s a pack for it…

[green bough]

Just don't always talk so negatively. They only want the best for you. 💵

[modest echo]

There are 2 researches in ship tree, one specifically for Vindicator and other for GS-31. Otherwise there is only a Chaos tech that provides some that you can buy and put on one ship.

[odd hedge]

Thanks. I was afraid you say that 😖

[lusty olive]

Can’t get 500% base resistance without the CT unfortunately

[timid hill]

As a mid-level 70 I’m mad that they can’t get g5 scrapping right. I need to grow my Krencha but I’m not spending the money it takes to max it. I’ve been playing for five years and have invested way too much time and money into this game.

[naive escarp]

they still keep pushing the same two DIFFERENT domination events out instead of matching them. like fix something in the game anything please.

[neat sedge]

You can with the gs-31

[lusty olive]

I mean faction ships
Take a GS31 to 70 trans systems. Let me know how that works out 😂

[neat sedge]

I did the f2p for that ship but I was thinking when its maxed it would be able to hit those hostiles now? (pretty sure a maxed Vindicator can and can get 500% HR)

Also, when we max our hazard research at ops 70 we don't get 500% (I never looked it up etc)

[remote portal]

Only 3? There are people on my server with a couple dozen

[narrow summit]

So, wait, starting in September, the content will be focused on 45+... and they act like that's new.

Um, hasn't 40+ been the focus for like a year and a half?

And the current power scaling needs are already way off, so how much worse are they about to get...

[neat sedge]

I stopped at 3 each but did that mainly for slb points etc

[hot canyon]

"New content moving forward will be focused on the higher levels, where the challenge needs to scale...". I think they missed the part where the challenge scaled too high.

[slow isle]

I feel the underlying issue is having tons of spend events but not really something to spend stuff on in g6 other than few buildings and researches and those older ships (new ships as well of course)

[ember lily]

One day you'll have to explain why you hate your customers so much, why you fight against them, why your only motivation is to prevent them from enjoying your game.

You forget that you only sell virtual goods, nothing real except pixels or numbers.

One day you'll understand that happy players who enjoy themselves are more likely to pay for packs than players who are constantly frustrated and beaten down by battle passes they no longer pay for.

You're not achieving your financial goals because instead of creating exciting content for players, you're creating a business plan for how to make as much money as possible.

[timid hill]

Think g7 is coming in November. I would be happy if I could scrap some G5’s to feed my Krencha

[gray lintel]

Starting in September we will be focusing on helping g3 and G4 players by releasing content aimed at 45+ then in October it will be 51+, really so when does g3 start at ops 45?

[simple drum]

I see U$$ Vengeance $$$ will remain super expensive and under powered for a LEGENDARY ship. I am actually about about 310/1000 bp for the ship and not in any hurry. Got the Krencha maxed and will slowly work on the Enterprise while watching the changes. Too many spend events and I am about done spending.

[lethal iris]

Gm blog is a joke right? Or just yet another cash grab ?

[slow mica]

https://tenor.com/view/popcorn-eating-gif-27098539

[slow isle]

there's a third point, OPS20-44 gets more streamlined events to push them faster and events for Franklin and Reliant and so

[warm solstice]

just another grab cash obviously.

[timid hill]

I don’t have any Vengeance BPs and will not be getting them. Spending 5k+ on a ship is asinine especially when gs-31 and maxed Cubes can kill it.

[hot canyon]

I also love the fact that they are saying people scrapping jelly on up is a problem as efficiencies are too much, thus no g5 scrap. So players found a workaround which was a benefit, and scopelys response is we cant allow that.

[gray lintel]

It's it even the GM or billy from accounting, got beks name on it, posted by cm, so bek is GM?

[lethal iris]

Scrapping is a good aid to progression, why screw the players over again!

[warm solstice]

yes because you need to spend money. not avoid

Ohhh yeah no way, people on my server are using their cubes on them

[slow mica]

Whattttttttt REALLLY …….OOOOH MMMMYYYYYYYYYY

Obviously. Its hilarious as that loop only really is related to getting the rare ship parts and g5 scrapping can be adjusted to account

[lusty olive]

Expect future hostiles to follow that pattern. No more gs31 cheese on 70`s 😂

[timid hill]

lol. Most are mad that g5 scrapping isn’t coming because Scopely doesn’t want it to be to rewarding to g6 players.

why would they want to reward their highest paying customer base? most companies treat those players like gold... not Scopely! 🙂 oh and slowmode! hehe

Double down be ******........ so the top spenders have all said they are done. So what scopely are now trying to do is slow - stop g3 and g4 content.

thats what i said the other day but nobody believed me

i use it for everything, im not 70 yet so im capped at t12 but its nuts, nothing i cant beat with it that i can beat with faction ships

by the looks of today's blog post, it's gonna be nerfed soon cuz Vengeance owners werent happy that their $15000 ships were being knocked down by a $1500 maxed GS31 😂

[modest echo]

I actually read it as G3 and G4 getting events that will give them rewards to make specialty ships faster to unlock and upgrade, so you can focus on completing all the loops available to you - and there is a ton to do in G3 and G4 - and then you will arrive to G5 with your specialty ships unlocked, upgraded well and you will start on doing new things

I expect them more to change the Vengeance to deal with that first round knockout. It's not just dying to GS31's.

[dull mason]

I won't even have automated defense bluffs for my miner's this year,
We need better Scorcing.. asap

[wheat oracle]

This is beyond disappointing.
Surely it would be possible to organise this in order, fairly quickly sort out scrapping of 52 and 53, so we can get rid of novas and our 52’s, help us buildup selkies and 63’s..
Then maybe get around to 56’s…
And in a third phase 58 surveys and 60 epics.
How long does it take for ppl to sit around and decide how much value you’re going to give us for all the investment we have made and time spent so far?
Wasn’t “recognising and rewarding the effort ppl have put in already” mentioned two weeks ago in the first Connor yelp?
All of the mechanisms exist already, all Scopely has to do is decide what value to put on these ships.
That can be done in a single day. Feels like a cop-out.

Meantime I will be staying at 60, and filling this expanded inventory with crap I’d rather not build, that I have no idea how much will help me in G6. Here’s to my 4th Sanctus, 5th Nova, another Beatty, probably four each of the 52’s.. love them all 🙃
Why? Because g6 is mostly a worthless PvP whale playground.
There is zero incentive to move into one big unified whale bracket where every event can be and does get bought, and that exists solely because some ppl are so addicted to this game you might as well keep squeezing them.
End of the line.

And if somehow they push out G7 before G5 scrapping, and let these bullies whales off the hook by letting them buy their way up further away from f2p and dolphins… I’m outta here for good.
Sad day.

[potent venture]

From the state of the game update: "With that in mind, we are seeing Vengeances being destroyed in some matchups against player Borg Cubes" How funny would it have been to be there in the room to watch someone's face as the pixels they paid the price of small car to get, got destroyed. 🥲

[tepid lotus]

I'm not sure the issue is due to beaming so much as the GS31 and Cube having all their weapons firing in the first round vs the Vengeance firing a couple weapons.

[burnt briar]

the vengeance isnt sup to be a pvp ship tho

[lusty olive]

The gs31 can’t cloak, and its Achilles heel is its hull. I hope everyone jumps on that bandwagon 🙏🏻

[dull mason]

The kelvin enterprise kills it anyway 🤣

[wheat oracle]

You can tell the number of “I spent 30k on a ship, it should be the best full stop (despite the fact my research is full of holes and my officers are entry tier)” messages has been high.

Many of the ppl up there buying this ship bought their way up fast, many are very empty ops, and they again expect to be able to easily buy a win with no effort..

[potent venture]

says who? you don't pay that kind of money to go explore the galaxy. Scopely would not go out of their way to point out that this should not be happening unless they intended it to be king of the hill. they called it the FIRST legendary ship. which means their intention was top dog until the next $$,$$$ ship. and then the next, next. This is basic product rollout.

[sacred hedge]

I think the message you’re replying to is talking about the future. Up until now G3 players have been able to participate in officer slbs with every new arc. But if new content is now exclusively for 45+ ops players, this suggests G3 and G4 players won’t be getting any chance to unlock new officers until they level up.

[late ermine]

If that happens that will be pretty bad but i believe its refering to whats already happening the ops 42+ events etc rather than slb sms that all ops had without a cap

[lusty olive]

Wrong, it’s supposed to be everything. But the devs are out of touch with PvP unfortunately, and they messed up

It's shocking to me how much time it seems to take to add a list of resources a ship should scrap for and add it to the scrapping list

[ashen harbor]

Also add to the list of the IA building. Close out more specialty ships. Reduce the number of clicks each time I log on

[uncut patrol]

IA is probably a bit more involved since they have to add new bonuses and new efficiencies... But scrapping? That really seems like it should be a 1-day project for an intern, plus a quick sanity check on the numbers. The real challenge they're probably running into is figuring out how much G6 resources they can give without costing themselves money.

[azure quail]

How about just one button that completes everything in just 2 seconds when you log in?

[ashen harbor]

They have made most of the money they are going to make on g6 allready. They need to get past that. G7 will bring money and the new ship each arc will do the same.

[late ermine]

Its because the the scrap value is way too much take g4 scrapping when it first came because of low efficiency the value was horrible but now people get enough ship parts to build 2 to 3 g5 epic from one g4 epic

[warm root]

If you been playing since the dawn of time

[azure quail]

Don't forget the Primes material sourcing. My guess is that is the main reasoning behind the change.

[cursive harness]

The announcement about g5 scrapping is utter bs, both missing the stated implementation date AND the implication that scrap returns are going to be nerfed into uselessness.

[timid hill]

Yep

[delicate wave]

You never gonna learn. Scopley. Just sit in the corner with this hat on.

It's called grammerly. Even my granddaughters have it on there phones.

[oblique forum]

hm i read the follow "you dont buy enougth packs so we dont give you g5 scrap. you dont buy the vangance so we push it to imba...." did i read it correct?

[acoustic skiff]

@here so currently I am operations 56 and missed the opportunity to unlock the Borg cube from the redemption code, I was deployed and missed out, but from my understanding there are other means via missions that you can do to unlock the board cube for free I have 58/100 blueprints currently so I have done some missions, in my holodeck. The last mission that I can see is the cube part two. Does that mission reward you with any blueprints? If so, how much? And if not, are there any other means that I can do besides paying $100 for 100 blueprints to get more blueprints for free?

[autumn escarp]

So basically this update says hurry up and ops up but we wont help you once you get to g6 by letting you scrap your ships. Buy packs instead. And scopely wonders why so many people are quitting.

[lament heath]

i am hoping BPs will be available in the end arc store. that should probably be the next arc

[surreal token]

Apparently they replaced the end of arc stores with the Ferengi store. Not sure if cube bps were in it.

[lament heath]

we had one as the conclusion of the exile arcs
wont mind the ferengi tho, give me those dolamides anytime 😇

[acoustic skiff]

They weren’t

[civic geyser]

Cube bp needs to be placed in the megacube event

[kindred echo]

Well that blog was a disappointment, so essentially if your ops 51+ then have a break till November because there’s gonna be nothing for you, and changing scrapping, yeah that’s gonna go down well 😂

[little violet]

They didn't say they were going to change scrapping. They said they were going to make G5 scrappable

Although.. They said scrapping was a good source of parts which was not intended... The players are already in unrest... Scopely continues to press the envelope.. It is almost like they want people to uninstall the game..

[kindred echo]

Certainly seems that way, and seeing as this chat is on slow mode I guess comments have been interesting 😂

[orchid topaz]

Ops 70 here, if they fix the bloat and reduce grind time, might stick around. As an example, there's no more "punching up" for events like Hostile Hunt once you hit Ops 70, which makes the daily items a full on eye stabbing grind. Should have just stayed at 60 and never went to G6

[midnight sleet]

It feels like to me that higher end players have stopped spending so they focused on getting them to spend and milking the lower

[cloud burrow]

Pushed the heroic material event points required through the roof and now they are talking about taking away the easiest way we have to get resources. I've a better idea if you dont want us scrapping ships all day to get resources, how about reasonable Heroic goals, or better yet how about stop cutting the rewards for materials every battle pass? it seems like we get less and less each month and yet are expected to use more and more.

[kindred echo]

Putting epic gas in the choice rewards would be a move in the right direction

[cloud burrow]

I mean scrapping wise it takes like 2 to 3 weeks to get a tier on a g5 epic, yet the last couple Heroic mat events they have expected 2 full g5 epics to complete. Not giving any access other than luck, trading down or the few not cost trades we get every 14 days it takes forever to do anything. It's not like scrapping ships is over in 5 minutes.

[kindred echo]

It’s almost like they want to kill the game off but can’t quite bring themselves to do it, so figure let’s alienate majority of our players, get them to quit, then we have an excuse to pull the plug

[delicate wave]

I don't even have an epic yet. So there

Maybe we should be talking to paramount instead they are at least looking into new star trek content. Hmmm

[slender flume]

I'm not the only one who's mad about that's state of the game thing

[cloud burrow]

The problem is they made Heroic mat spend events that pretty much force you to tier ships to get anywhere in, and have blocked g5 scrapping so people are basically not able to do much for the mat spend events, meanwhile they double the points needed to get anywhere in them. How about coming up with different ways to be able to point in these events to give people a chance to maybe unlock the new officers every month. Not asking to be able to get to t5 but it would be nice to actually open up some of the new officers.

[slender flume]

No choice rewards?!!! 😡😡😡

[tepid lotus]

No choice rewards for G3

[gentle raft]

Doesn't say that.

[slim karma]

https://tenor.com/view/it's-a-slow-day-gif-17869747439397645052

[slender flume]

Phasing out so yes they are saying that

[tepid lotus]

It says: "The Battle Pass for G3 is shifting away from Choice Rewards." That tells me G3. Are you reading it as for everyone?

[wild magnet]

yea it does

[midnight sleet]

Basically they said G3 players don't know how to play so we only giving them the RSS we think they need

[gentle raft]

Show me the words " no " or " phasing "

[slender flume]

Omg it says shifting how different

[twilit skiff]

oh ur sooo timedout buddy

[gentle raft]

"Shifting away" means to change or move gradually from one thing to another, moving from a previous focus, position, or idea towards something new.

[slender flume]

Yes they are changing the battle pass to take choice rewards out 🙄

[twilit skiff]

so why am i permanently temporarely timed out ?

[gentle raft]

I don't have time for this stupidity

[formal dragon]

The scariest part is I genuinely don’t think they are trying to tank the game but it’s exactly what they are doing with this nonsense. None of them actually play the game otherwise they would understand the grind and drain G6 is and how awful these Arcs have been.

I think we need a free G5 scrapping movement soon. We were promised it, but they are taking it away for stupid reasons just like they did with the DTI.

[twilit skiff]

i think we just shouldnt give random ppl moderator rights

[slender flume]

So fun to be here with Slow Mode all day..

[stuck depot]

I've been feeling it for weeks now. I'm only 61, not sure if I should have stayed at 60 cuz the Rot and Dex were overpowering regular hostiles. The dailies aren't so hot but I think the key is that I should have kept my rep at dignitary (but I felt I needed a selkie so I rep'd up)

[arctic iris]

hmm mix of NSEA with a spliash of the space cruise ship from 5th element

[twilit lintel]

well if ppl stop spamming the chat with the same useless comments from this morning and about this g5 scrap stuff maybe slowmode will be off

[flint hatch]

so... scopely if you want people to spend in the game, you have to create a stable platform and then give them content that is good enough to make them spend on the game. Hit me up for ideas i have a lot of them and they are way better than the rubbish the last two were.

[stuck depot]

I ignore almost all the events. I've told people, I play like a year 2 or 3 player. I do the same old archaic events. and the battle pass event. almost everything else, don't feel it matters to how I play.

[arctic iris]

i must have missed that, only thing i was concerned about was the possibility of nerfing the amount of materials from scrapping ships because "imbalance"

[warm pivot]

more time to make the comment really sting ^^

[flint hatch]

oh its worse than that. that directly affects you. they have made it nearly impossible to bring new people into the game.

[warm root]

My current view

[stuck depot]

I thought the bottleneck was ship parts at 4*+. I've yet to max a 4# ship.

And i agree on the lack of new people.

[twilit lintel]

how do u know the game is lacking in new ppl?

[azure quail]

Actually, it's mostly new players getting their ships or bases blown up and they don't know why. This is also more complicated game than the typical "upgrade your base, create an army" type of game. They leave out of lack of understanding and frustration.

A link in game to the corresponding server discord link/RoE rules would probably be helpful.

Im just sitting here laughing...doing my own thing not spending and becoming richer again. In fact I have gone back to another game I was playing PRIOR to 2019 that I took the foot off the gas and I'm spending LESS money on their packs but getting longer enjoyment out of it 😄 I mean...mine 8 million iso1 for a few crummy engage credits. who was smoking what when they made that one up. I really can't be arsed to finish mining 50m Trellium-A, let along 30m Trillium-D. I have ceased caring and spending

[whole robin]

I think a lot of g3 players don't know what to choose 🤣

[slender flume]

I just pick what I need at that moment 😅

[wraith schooner]

if they're f2p and actually trying to move forward they know what to choose...

[oak basin]

if they understand that little about the game by the time they reached g3, they probably won't be playing much longer and we can dismiss their confusion as not being worth considering

[frank pike]

So, let’s get this straight, <@&509690795536941056>…. Because the team is bad at planning ahead regarding future efficiencies and how they interact with ship building and scrapping the player base gets punished by being promised next gen scrapping and it being delayed indefinitely at this point? While people purposely put time and rss into building up gen 5 ships for the promised coming scrapping ability?

Maybe instead of blaming the mechanic and how it interacts with efficiencies and people relying on it the dev team should see that as the player base saying things are broken and this was at least a way to un-blap it in some small way.

[stark latch]

Stability is so stellar now. So instead of crashing, I just get the red icon of death and it takes 3 times as long to recover vs the crash. I lose more shops to Hazzard space now because I can't do anything and by the time I can, I am almost dead or dead.

[little violet]

Honestly .. They probably wouldn't let you scrap them to like ops 68 scrap 68 anyway...Lots of folks will not see that ops in a long time.

[hasty tartan]

And the first iteration will be garbage

[hidden locust]

i wonder if the blog post about stability is for next client patch 🤣 (all i can say it gived me only more bugs)

[little violet]

Honestly.. The problem with G6 isn't materials or ship parts so you all got the wrong idea... The Problem in is G6 is the sigma trit and for building it is Sigma par... you better plan well or you will be hurting bad

[whole robin]

it only takes a week or two to reach low g3
the game doesn't even really start until around ops20 the first 20 ops levels are basically a tutorial

[dull mason]

Give us server transfer options as well!!

[little violet]

You just don't realize how much that would kill the already dangling by a thread game... if you are in G4 it would be easier to just move to another server and start over.. Probably take a month or two get back to the ops.. Officers and ships a little while longer..Not much with depot tokens.. Except the epics....

Also.. Scopely would lose money from people selling rss.... If you don't thing that is a thing... LOL you are wrong

[whole robin]

I swear they messed up the PC client a few months ago and it now interpets two single clicks about 1 second apart as a double click

[timid hill]

No I want the ability to move my account to another Server as it is. I have friends on other servers that want to come to my Server and check out my Alliance and I want to do the same with them.

[little violet]

I understand that part... But scopely looks at it as a financial loss... People sell rss that way... Also they want you to start over and rebuy ships

[whole robin]

or does it use the system based double click interveral... IIRC in windows there was an option to adjust the timing considered a double click- ok I just adjusted that setting in windows, hopefully it works in STFC

[little violet]

It would use your computer settings, yes. If you have adjusted your clicking or mouse speed

<@&509691205798592532> Can you take off slow mode since all the complainers are gone... Except me...?

[tired lily]

<@&509690795536941056> Other than spending $100, how are borg cube blueprints obtained?? I've seen mention of them being in the store, but I've never seen them. The only way to progress in the mission "The Cube Parts 4 and 5" is to build the cube, but it can't be built without the blueprints. 🤷‍♀️

[solid kayak]

they arent

[little violet]

https://tenor.com/view/where-are-they-searching-gif-13135572

[whole robin]

they are in the arc store periodically but I purchased one of the cube packs and they disappeared from my arc store so I can't get a second cube without spending $100 apparently

[hidden locust]

it popped up usually in end off arc event store. (not sure if it ever was in the transogen arc stores so far)

[little violet]

I can't get a second one either... They used to have a promo code

[tired lily]

I'm just trying to get my first

[wraith schooner]

1st one should be obtainable f2p via Epic Transogen if you're willing to wait 200 days 🤣

[whole robin]

did you buy the cube when they had it on sale for $60? apparently they sold the arc store blueprints instead of the normal paid blueprints.... the promo code was before I started the game, May or June of last year IIRC

[little violet]

Then you would have to have the squall and @whole robin No, not that I recall ..

[hidden locust]

that 1 ended long time ago. i started on nov 2024 and it was expired :p

[wraith schooner]

that's why 200 days, 100 days to get the Squall and 100 days to buy the BPs...technically only need to buy 95. Only works for the first cube tho as after the first the trade option is just memory shape alloy

[little violet]

Because it was leaked from the vip server 🤣 Us peasants weren't supposed to ever see the flyer or it would still be available lol

[wraith schooner]

doesn't just work for cube btw, but yeah, it's a meme hence the 🤣

[little violet]

Pretty sure they added all the vip accounts into a group and make certain promo codes only good for them

[little violet]

Honestly that just cuts the 100 day wait for people with the squall and not those ships.. If you look at it that way

[hidden locust]

fair :p

[little violet]

3 a day I think makes it 60 days or so instead of 100

price wise this new format for the stores i dont like (if i only count the half bp ships) same cost tho get half off couple ships and packs. usually got like 3 full ships 😆

glad i got it done before the changed it

[whole robin]

@heady moon can we get some info on how old servers will need to be before they ascend to g7? like our server only ascended to g6 less than a year ago, how long will a server need to be at g6 before it ascends to g7? I would hope at least a year, preferably 18 months

[polar ravine]

I hope to have really at least gave a whisper of a laugh 🫡 remember BlameLuffy 😉🏴‍☠️

[coral sedge]

@heady moon is G7 going to be delayed since G5 scrapping is delayed?

[heady moon]

Who said anything about G7?

[whole robin]

the devs since last year said g7 is coming this year

[little violet]

G7 not released yet... 🤣

[heady moon]

I don't remember that at all!

[whole robin]

don't make me find the announcement

[hidden locust]

let them frist fix the legendary 🤭

[little violet]

They are dealing with some vip uproar and it might be delaying it lol

[whole robin]

it might have been during a Q&A or something last december they definitively said G7 was releasing this year

[little violet]

Lol the cube owns the legendary

[whole robin]

not with proper crews once the Vengeance gets tiered about half way it doesn't

[coral sedge]

Then why are they having to buff it lol

[little violet]

I was watching two whales duke it out during incursions it was getting owned... everytime...

[whole robin]

it's a skill issue not an issue with the ship, with proper crews a vengeance barring any buffs/debuffs a vengeance will 100% beat a max cube at around tier 8 or 9

[hidden locust]

data collection can take up to 3 months depending on live service games :p we see how it turns out. (altrough if the see a big flaw the could try temporarly buff it)

[little violet]

My RNG with 15 hrs speeds is terrible.. Wonder if Scopely is tinkering under the hood with the numbers... again...

[tepid lotus]

Yeah, and how many thousands of $$$ will it take to get to tier 8 or 9?

[whole robin]

my alliance leader's 200B vengeance I have never seen lose to a cube unless max fort or GS31 debuff

[tired lily]

I see the CM responded to just about everyones comments except mine 🤨

[whole robin]

so again, it's a skill issue, also a max vengeance is around 500billion power

a lot of whales have more money than sense and don't know how to crew properly

[little violet]

I seen this a lot 🤣 Not used to facing people who can duke it out with their spending.. So crewing don't matter to them for the most part, so they never put the time into actually learning the game

[hidden locust]

• most ships poor lower tiers. even if it cost thousands xd

[whole robin]

as a 67 I regularly blow up new 70's ships that are roughly double my cube's power including other cubes

[little violet]

This is also true

Do you have a slipstream?

[timid hill]

My t10 Krencha was nearly getting owned by a 69’s maxed GS-31

I also didn’t have WOK Joachim maxed so I think he was a factor.

[whole robin]

max WOK Joachim is a must for below deck for PvP, he's not even hard to max, just afk farm with reliant then do the yellow hostile missions

[timid hill]

I know

[whole robin]

he's literally the easiest epic in the game to max

[timid hill]

Hes maxed now

[whole robin]

👍 the only 'hard' part is getting the rep

also IRT Tuvok & Icheb make a massive difference below deck, especially if you get the first hit

[timid hill]

Yeah

[whole robin]

they really need to fix that though, it shouldn't matter who gets the first hit because it's RNG if you both attack each other

[minor furnace]

I would keep it. Adds more tactical options for cloaked ships.

[whole robin]

it's literally a coin flip though if you both attack each other

[minor furnace]

Never really felt like that unless both hit the attack button.

[whole robin]

that's the #1 issue I run into in arenas

both of us hit the attack button but the other guy with max tuvok/icheb keeps getting the first attack so he gets the proc even though he's debuffed because his skills go off first

there appears to be some way to game the system to get it to let you get the first attack most of the time even if both players attack, possibly spamming the attack button? not sure

Where do I find these ?

[silver parcel]

nu augment system, killing hostiles

[radiant bay]

Idea for scrapping ships. Make it so you infuse them into your station. The ships disappear but appear on a list of ships “defending” your station and then add some minor incremental damage/defence boosts to your station. The theory being they are still there, but not in your ship yard and hanging around station to defend. I’m not saying make them actually attack in battle log, just give the turrets an incremental boost each time you “merge” them in and for prosperity sake just keep a log of ships.

[dry estuary]

Very, VERY minor glitch where the light of Romulan engines is visible through the ship, but really I don't think it's that serious. Honestly goes pretty hard.
