And I hate that frustration with that gets dismissed by saying "be glad that events are paying out so well", "it's just like any other leftover currency", "just don't spend/grind/etc. as much"
I can buy 4x70 packs. I stopped putting effort into SLBs roughly 10 days ago.
If I kept competing I now would have everything in event store and a surplus.
I've not said those things. I am laying out clear expectations though.
It wasn't directed at you. I appreciate your advice to raise a CS ticket and I trust you saying the issue was already raised. It is up to Scopely to react appropriately but I don't have high hopes.
If anything, thanks for your clear communication.
I guess I could've been more clear. It was more of a general statement.
I think that’s the issue I have as well. I calculated the payouts and even with the added emoticon, it wasn’t worth it to spend/compete in some of the last events. Scopely should have known the full amount of currency possible and accounted for it. It’s not like they couldn’t have prepared this, even if they change events last minute, they should have had some infinite consolation pull
It's simple. If you plan an arc and have event store where vast majority is paying out event store tokens I would calculate what is the max tokens needed to unlock everything in event store and what can you possibly get through all events (including being #1 in every single SLB).
This doesn't even include Cash Packs.
This is such an easy task that can either be done automated or if lazy by some intern. Just write down every number and add it together. No magic. Could give the task to a little child 🤷
If you are supposed to have surplus after unlocking everything it should have been communicated in first place.
I would think the same. Bundle limits should account for maximum possible participation/spend (even when you buy such ridiculously worthless stuff like the FKR Elite recruit prime during the heroic event). But they missed the mark. Twice.
So another explanation is, that they might have something like a set budget for officer sourcing (even if it's chance based) that they don't want to exceed.
That is purely luck based. Some people could have unlocked Borg queen with the packs while others don't even have 20 shards through pack even tho they opened every single pack.
I'm not saying I agree with that. I'm trying to think of a reason other than malice or incompetence. I'm hoping there is a rational explanation for them taking the chance of not paying out (highly) engaged players for events.
Well this time they even juked the p2w players. Usually they will only limit the f2p or keep their possibilities low.
why did they change the officer BP event to start an hour late?
Bob the intern forgot to push a button
Then again, it feels like all that’s left are interns programming and supporting the game, soooo…..
When are we getting some kind of incursions announcement?
considering the bonus refinery starts in 2 days... I thought that was the announcement 🙂 and considering we got matched up on XSLB to X server, I figured that would be who we get matched up against 🙂
It’ll occur about 18-24hrs before the cancellation announcement comes
Tbh I don’t expect one soon. First I’m expecting the survey to be released
@pseudo rune @modest frost any content for officer battlepass?
Expecting logic from them is dangerous, remember, we’ve had several announcements of “we’d rather just push content out and fix it later than take the extra time to make working content the first time around”
Yeah 🤷♂️
Is the office flash pass supposed to start today? Don’t these usually start on a Tuesday?
typically but scopely....
Depends when they plan it out 🤷♂️
wait... they plan things? 🙂
Yeah, while I hope for incursions soon, Eco said they wouldn’t release it until they had taken actionable steps to fix what would be in the survey. And I’ve heard crickets since
Thanks for the huge delay in deploying the Battle Pass and mining so no credit for all of the mining already done. Should update to tell everyone the deployment comes in waves. screwed again!
I actually got credit for mining I’d done before the flash pass hit. Give it a bit, may be some lag.
Thanks - Hope so.
Good job there’s a 24h mining event on then, eh 😉
Farmville in fake space
I'm glad it did because there are still players that are unable to spend their currency (including me).
They upped the limit to 90 for 2 options as players didn’t have anything to spend it on.
If you can exhaust the 20 pulls extra on both of those with 5.4k left over, the phaser was for you 😅
That looks like the response they made for players that had too much left over
i spent 3300 tokens on the "isogen set" and after that a normal set appeared, with stat experience.... this is a fail
Yeah, I guess now it's at least possible to spend to 0 with the phaser.
Pulling a rabbit out of a hat Events.!!
True, but also give it a few days and everyone will be screaming for content and how bored they are.
and by everyone you mean the 5% of players that is in game 20 hours a day.
Can anyone tell me how much g4 and/or g5 is in the event store boxes at ops 51?
And? 🤷🏻♂️
If you don’t want to spend the time in game, you can skip stuff.
There is limited scope for making something to do if there aren’t events, I usually end up starting a war 🤣
more content is one thing, more content at the cost of fixing and balancing stuff that needs to be fixed and balanced is another.
Lamp
It took me an hour and 30 to complete the loaded content yesterday … spent more time on djz podcast than the game 😂
Is thats why his podcasts are so long? 😂
But im fine if they throw in a pvp event every day for 5 Hadley shards to keep everyone busy 😛
I think if you were to ask in my alliance or on my server, 80 or 90% of players would say more fixing and less new content.
Is incursion happening?
Likely no
no incursion, thank goodness.
until its fixed, its a danged disaster.
They need to give us a way to earn subspace relays then.
Armadas and eclipse hostiles is about the only event they know how to do….
Incursion gives out tons of rewards. Why all the hate?
So again we have a solo Armada event/ Armada Event which gives out hemmer. Why not Odo?
Cos some people hate anything that isn’t putting a miner out and logging off.
was too much crap going on this weekend, i skipped the talios PvP don't need to waste RSS and speedups on that, didn't have time to do TFB either, barely finished the FC HH events in time as I left those for last moment.
Franklin pvp🤷🏻♂️ 6hr event timer 🤷🏻♂️ raiding slb not scoring 🤷🏻♂️ to name just three
yeah needs to just make it all 24 hrs offensive/defensive
that way you can always finish, not having to wait for a certain time of day
the whole swap between defense and offense is absolutely redacted
48 hours, 24 hours each server
just needs to be mixed offensive/defensive so you can equally score regardless
doing it one way has no benefit to the defenders because it gives other side more score as attacker regardless
so no point defending if its giving the edge to the other server
If they drop the pvp restrictions, like recent server events, incursion will be good.
And the raiding leaderboard is fixed, so raiding scoring will once again work I would expect.
I don't disagree with what your saying, just answering why it's currently being panned. I like the concept, execution not so much
Raiding leaderboard is unfrozen btw
Yep. That’s what I said, think that’s why the incursion raiding wasn’t working.
Been telling Scopely that since last year!
Oh whoops I didn’t read the last line properly 🤣🤣🤣
Nah, was different 🙂
Raiding leaderboards been broken a lot longer than the last couple of runs of dodgy incursions.
As I understand it I think most of it is down to trying to combat station dry humping leaderboard
Will the new arc be starting today or next week
got an OFP so probably next week
I mean yes today for sure for sure, don't make me green
its the Canadian blood, it takes over sometimes and just wants to help 🤮
I want more holodeck missions
Hmmm. There is an officer flash pass and it’s the 28th of Feb. I think we can guess when 😬😬
Next tuesday
The arc starts whenever you throw your PC
Ye doesn’t say much lately, banned a second time around 🤣
Ye plays was he a 60 😭
Can’t always satisfy everyone 😉
This months Flash pass is pretty good
considering harrison is in the "elite" recruit packs that nobody wants, and Jaylah is borderline unobtainable still... it's pretty solid
Kuron is in ultras now I think?
Kuron is ❤️
This Officer flash pass should have had Tal.
Absent Tal, this is a damn good alternative
"Look! Here's a new old officer that people have been waiting to reappear with almost as much interest as they were for Jaylah"
Definitely the best flash pass we’ve had in months if you just look at the officers and their lack of sourcing. But given the 💩 of the last few months, it’s ok to not give $copely money. They will never improve as long as we feed the beast.
So, when incursions begin?😎
He is in the ultras, but considering he is 1 of 41 rares in the ultra, any extra shards are good if you like using him for meta speed crew
Each kuron tier is noticeable
Maxing him makes a big difference.
It will probably take years, but yes, I can see that +50% boost looks nice.
Agreed although, are we getting any events timetable this time? Like in between arcs calendar, I think incursion is probably gone for good though lol
Given the next arc will likely start next week I can guess we will see Apex and FH next and maybe a mat spend over the weekend and a syndicate xp event. I’ll ask if there is an official calendar 👍🏻
Brilliant! Thanks
That’s just my guess based on what we usually get.
Yup I understand, I was more excited about the mat spend one though lol
Will you ask for extra zeros on rewards while you’re asking.
Hey Luci
Good to see you Randy
You too. Saw butters joined y’all now too
Yeah you should join us too😂 we are having a mini dark reunion 😅
😈
Things good still w SNW for now. But yeah lots of familiar faces. Tell LtSkin to stop being PTSkin.
Does anyone know if the event currency from this past battle pass will still be good after today or is today the last day to use it or lose it?
Nope. Spend it or lose it
Cool, thank you!
Any news?
just remember that they just gave us bonus refinery, so I would interpret that as they think they are going to do incursions soon too... until they cancel them again. 🙂
Well crap. I mean thanks Krap! Lol Seriously tho I appreciate the response. I was hoping we'd get a heads-up on any mat/recruit events for the weekend.
Ah, this is this cancel culture I hear so much about
you get a #cancelled, and you get a #cancelled everyone gets a #cancelled!!!
CM’s are asking for it
Think that's mostly because they said they would be doing a bonus refinery every month and we hadn't had one yet?
Not tied to incursions, which they said wouldn't run til they had made an attempt to fix it
In the Return to Form -SLB, do BORG solo armadas count?
I'm assuming no, as they are different directives and believe they had a separate box specifically for Borg Solo armadas in previous ar.ada events. But if someone knows different...
don't seem to
they counted for SMS but not SLB
Big fan of being able to see alliance contributions to AMS now.
always been able too
Really? Thought it was only ALBs?
COW AMS you could always see
Finally the moochers have nowhere to hide
Oh we always completed that day one 🤣
I really thought this was new 🤷♂️
I know a few you could see, and some you couldn't. Scopely consistency
My alliance has 15 players that apparently haven’t killed a hostile in 48 hours but have been online 😑
I just did an solo Borg epic and it counted for me even tho multiple people are claiming it isn't.
<@&509690795536941056> any chance of getting some event dates listed? Apex? Faction hunt? 🍻
i forgot to spend the assimilation credits from the last arc... does anyone know if this will usefull in a next arc? otherwise i need to spend it on useless away team packs...
Been asked 🙂
You have to spend it now
too bad, loosing out on a lot of mats... atleast i can stock up on trait XP 🙂
Why didn’t you spend it? 👀
i waited untill the last 24hrs and then i got distracted....
yes, im getting a headache thinkin about it
ATA exchange is good too for some. For me, the ATA speedups are the equivalent of nearly 2k credits. The entire set is a large chunk of the way to my next ship.
I went in on Gas, ATA and Territory bits, with a smattering of ore to finish off builds at various points
neeeed trait xp still, and territory catch up 😂
And tomorrow I reach syn 21 so +35% on all stats 😄
But speaking of experience even tho it says 80% i rather get 5/10 crits :/
i've done way over 100 of these with 80% so it's not like i am unlucky because i only did a few.
this is similar 6-7/10 will crit.
I see your survivor didn’t fill up. 😬
Just dumped another 65k trait xp. see how it goes 😄
always felt like there are some percentages where the crit rate plummets to me (~55-70 for me), but I think that's partially confirmation bias on my part - never tracked it, and they crit "enough" to keep me ahead on thigns
Aren't you skipping 50s though? I think you'll have enough by the time you're ready to buy the corvus.
well the 90% just crit 😄
you'd hope
Any event calendar until new Arc drops?
No
Even the kill stuff is just active mining, so it’s mine stuff mine more stuff…
Gonna get the black lung from all this mining
CoW, Faction Hunt, Apex at a guess.
What the $copely?
Got to squeeze it all in before Tuesday 🤣
on the plus side, CoW will complete while you do the faction hunt 😂
Synergy... Also see bp event and second contact elite 😂
what's the problem? This is best thing they could of done
We all know they didn't do this on purpose to help us...
They probably decided it worked well because it didn’t punish us.
Except I still need to do CoW cos I just tiered my next set of G3 Uncs 🤣
I see we have reverted back to the boring norm 🙄 would be nice if they could actually do something different 🫤😟😟
add fourth faction hunt cardassian and fifth dominion 😄
@versed stirrup yeah deep joy 😴😴😴
I like when events overlap like this and an action can work towards completing multiple events! Do this more often Scopely! It makes my game time much more worthwhile
Just something new though just for a change Scopely
There's no armada event running, that practically counts as new 😏
@static wigeon maybe they count on players just being easily pleased 🤔🤣🤣🤣
Where is the incursion announcement so that it can be canceled... again?
Incursions
Coming Soon
Cant be cancelled if they never scheduled it. Incursions went belly up last month, and it was suggested it would be a while before we see it again
There isn’t one
There probably thinking of new ways to screw up
ATA use base stats only
That’s not true
It uses all modifiers as long as it can apply to ATA
why that is not reflected when you look on the ATAs?
also i don't remember getting any big improvements on ata income when i bought the first officer prime
They really need to improve the comp chest!!!!
just used 100% attack exocom, no impact, one of us clearly does not know what he's talking about
Prime officers effects ATA’s I remember when I got it the instant boost I got
25% stat exo. It work. On base. So result is ridiculous but it work
100% heath never worked
Dj tested the 2 others and he find them to work from what I remember
well if some things work and others don't how do you know what actually works?
The only thing that doesn’t work is research’s that apply to when the officer is in the captain seat or the bridge
Anyone knows coming soon for incursion XSLB just wonder after flash points event ??
well my "host ambassador" has not changed after starting the 100% attack exo, so what, it only works on some missions now? cmon!
I know, I was being a smart elic.
It’s not coming
Ok thanks
🤔
I miss it incursion bummer… not coming yet 😑
So far twice time canceled oh well we will await to see there hopefully …. Cross fingers
It does but already proven by some others here 👋
The impact of exos won't obviously be that effective anymore at some later point because you already have lots of bonus % added from researches, syndicate etc
hmm tried "address high council" and lost some income after disabling the exo..
host ambassador stays unaffected
anyways, next time i get some bonus stats from research i will check again
The soup "nazi"!
Move to #💬-general-feedback 👍🏻 (delete from here once done)
Done. For some reason that channel wasn’t visible until you shared.
🖖
I think it’s the discord bug where half the channels disappear from time to time 😅
The joys of Discord.
is there any announcement of when syndicate sms may come? the thresholds are so ridiculous now i need to plan ahead for it and not use up my mantis refine until it starts'
the safest way is to wait with refine just few minutes after event reset 😉
that way no matter the schedule you can do the most pulls for sure.
@modest frost @pseudo rune can you ask Scopley to update the ships for CoW scoring? Seems crazy that vidar scores but the talios doesn't? Mantis, Stella, defiant as well please
the event reset is 1 AM for me...not gonna plan to do that every single night
I see. Well that's unlucky. You could imagine Scopely is aware of time zones and would shift the timed events accordingly but yeah NOPE.
I suspect its so gamers enjoy the same experience of lag and events not working together at the same UTC time as one global happy community.
Though to be serious, if game reset was different for US, Europe and Asian servers wonder if that might improve performance. Something tells me its setting that up, is what would holds that idea back and the desire for us all to go live at same time.
@modest frost @pseudo rune where are between arc event schedules and when are(if) we having incrusion this time around ??
No incursions this month, CoW and Faction Hunt already running then Apex starts 4-6th march and then new arc 7th March
borg could also run lol
Hey guys, for the first time I didn't get the Military Supremacy event along with CoW event. I checked with my teammates who are also Ops level 35, which is where I am, and they confirmed they have it. I searched around and didn't find any other conditions that is required for me to have this event, so I contacted Scopely, and 3x they told me it's because I do not meet the 'requirement', and yet they wouldn't elaborate that those requirements are. Do any of you have an idea or have knowledge of this?
Yes that happens. It's a thing. There's some magic requirements that you need to meet and basically no one knows what they are.
it could, but someone from scopely said apex
You get it if you're below 39 (I think) and near tiering or acquiring a ship to induce you to buy a pack and skip that horrid grind. Or so goes the word on my server.
Yes, Bek said on DJz's show it's Apex, (and impliedly not Borg). I made a joke about it.
Borg runs are extremely rare and normally happen on 2 week breaks between arc
I never saw it for 34 ships. I stopped seeing it after about ops 35 and still didn't have a 32
I’ve been playing since the beginning and only had one Military Supremacy event. It’s not a guaranteed event.
Can we get a schedule for events? Apex? Or other events inbetween arcs such as swarm or borg. @silver pike
3 bp short of the frank A skin. Event has disappeared like assaults and incursions 🤣
There is one. Bek posted it on #🌌-galaxy-chat
Ty sir!
Mid-arc schedule:
Faction Hunt 3/1-3/3
Apex Outlaw 3/4-3/6
@silver pike Incursions??
Nope
@silver pike can we have some subspace relay upgrade material please 😁👍👍
So no incursions between these arcs?
No incursions until they announce they have fixed them. they went belly up last month
@tight salmon I noticed my combat exocomp have no effect a couple months ago. I thought maybe I was using them wrong? I don't know how that would be but there is no impact whatsoever @pseudo rune @modest frost
It was a right mess up as I'm on the eu servers.. typical as i now have all the strike crews 😂
Nope
Depends on what you use the difference can be very small
Alliance contribution for unity event not counting. Anyone else got the same or lag again?
🙄 thank you
Yes alliance contributions not counting
@modest frost @pseudo rune I’ve donated for the unity event and it’s not counted.
The slider donation worked how many days ago?
1 point for 1 push. Dont use the slider
Apparently there is a note on the event this time around.
What is this trash? Why revert using the X contribution? Unless you screwed something up again?
That’s only just appeared.
Scops you are completely useless why change something that was helpful to the players now I got to press the contribution button 60 times. You are getting more idiotic by the second.
It's a small thing, but I can't help but feel there's malice behind the change.
Most of the events we had in the in the last arc felt like they were just making folk spend more time in the game just to get player time up so they can look good
Clearly they goofed something up on the back end. Putting the disclaimer out there is faster than changing the code
Messed up for helps as well.
If it ain't broke, scopely it
I see the devs and cc’s have disappeared
Probably away for a break not giving a damn
Event has been fixed now, contributions should work in bulk (just tested myself)
Anyone wanna give me the 1b steel I just spent for no reason on contributions?
What a load of........
ikr
@keen citrus I noticed I had to do each donation 1x1 instead of all 60 at once
Not really a fix though is it, they purposely changed it. They put text into the event description.
thats always been their, this is last weeks. Same description
Jan also the same
Nothing new
Except it didn't really work that way. multiple contributions worked. They do again now. So things are consistently inconsistent. Big shock
So the scopely staff saying its a mistake obviously know less than you. Cool...
Like i noted and many always note, never do events at reset. Something is always broken
it's just either laziness or lack of double checking their work to not update the description
hence all the issues we get from copy/pasta
but consistent with the issues
every event at reset is broken. always is, and if you wait till 1 hour after reset and its broken then it "Really is broken" not just lagging out
Cool story bro, needs more dragons
the concern is, we shouldn't have to wait until after reset, it should be triple checked and verified before activating the events....
accepting lack of quality ensures continued lack of quality
Their lies the problem at event reset the biggest issue is everyone logs on! So it lags out, server cannot process it < This is issue not the event which is bad considering most servers have upto 2-4K players (this is my understanding anyway 😄 )
that problem is the data points from the third party they use as we've seen in the past them having to add more data points when it was extremely bad with coring lag. this issue most are talking about is the change in not scoring for using the added slider for contributions towards event because copy/pasta old original scoring code.
another problem is typically during aramda events where they have pretty much everyone on server in the same armada systems (like Exchange Delta) and everything gets super laggy and or doesnt process correctly because of all the ships in a single system.
Yes we are messing up their perfect environment, by loggin in and actually playing 😂
Bad us
thats typically the fault all developers face... no real world load testing is done.. seen it done a lot in various software companies ive worked at.
And while its not usually the fault of the developers (as they arent typically given adequate lab/load options), its definitely something all devs should think about.
Ripper made a great point, about the lack of tooling and mammoth task of manually entering all the data.. line by glorious line
Check out DJs last Talking Trek Podcast
i can imagine... they need data entry tools... and if they dont have them then theres fault on mgmt there as well. automation in all its forms helps make people more productive and helps reduce errors
I’m not in that industry and we have access to all sorts to make our life’s more efficient.
Would seem a no brainier, quicker, less room for errors and my god templates they could use and save 😱
someone still needs to build the artwork etc, but again.. save it in some template. (edit the template as necessary). then reuse endlessly
Imagine having to start fresh each arc runner, with nothing but blanks
honestly I cant imagine why they dont have automation there... HUGE expense and incredibly error-prone... which makes me understand why they screw up so much currently.
P.S. I still hold them responsible for messing up players lives with all their mistakes... its incredibly rude and totally ridiculous.
Messing up players lives? 🧐
do you not see that the more they screw up these events, the more time they take away from us? if not only to put in a ticket for correction? or even follow this discord to know whats broken, etc
The game feels Dead!
Never listened to it. Tell me what podcast episode and roughly the time stamp so I might check it out to see how much of it is actually true.
So contributions aren’t counting? Cool cool cool.
They are
Can you guys find other ways to provide relays since there have been no incursions
Here also
Between arc is always calmer
True
Join 109, that’s a laugh a minute
It cannot be denied that generally activity declined over the past 6-9 months tho.
Dunno if anyone there is any activity/metrics tracking for this server however would be interesting to see concrete data.
@modest frost Bek, just send out the Comp Big Chest already!!!! 🥹
Does "end tomorrow" means that we'll get a third day of faction hunt? Can't keep track of when "days" happen with the like 4 different "days": local timezone, scopely timezone, event reset, daily tasks reset
Double checking if it’s a typo or there is no SMS tomorrow but ALB still runs
Does anyone actually chase for the fh alb. I mean those rewards are 💩
Scopley needs to update all the event rewards, especially the station events. Once you go to the 40s there is really no reason to do station events.
I would like a third day fh sms though
Yeah usually the case. They stopped doing 3 consecutive runs of milestones because people were too upset about it. Which is true if you only grind it. But if you use it for monthly ship tiering for scrappers 3 days would be preferred.
😬
If incursions arent on the table have you worked an alternative solution for acquiring ST La'an or subspace relays for the building ? or do just expect everyone to buy the stupidly overpriced packs
It's being work on, no infos yet about it
so in essence scopley broke it and dont know how to fix it yet lol
@keen ledge
@rough frost I think its been under work for what 4 months now, thats not reasonable anymore...
And it was broken last run, and had to be pulled
It will be back when everything is fixed and working
it had to be pulled 4 months in a row....
Well not that broken tbh i am EU player and yes some scoring did not work, but PvE exos worked just fine
Worked great 👌 (if you didn't care about the PvP elements of incursions 🤣) better they make a working product than trying to rush it out again. But in mean time there should be decent sourcing for the things you can only get from incursions.
So is there plans for a syndicate sms again in the next few days? @modest frost
They’re usually in-arc events, and we got 2 of them in the last arc. Wouldn’t expect to see one. Also it’s not mentioned in the schedule in the announcements channel
Best to save bp rewards in case it makes a difference. I'm not sure they would tell us if there will be one or not
Become the fomo. Live it, breath it, bask in it
I Finnish this part
Since no incursions, AGAIN, can Scopely figure out a second source subspace relay parts since the main source is now gone?
incursions are coming back
soon ™️
According to Bek
"Many players have asked about Incursions, and we wanted to make sure we let you know that they are not currently on the schedule."
How do you gather Soon from that? IMO that implies at least another couple weeks and possibly next month given they run Incursion Prep Events a week prior I feel it’s more likely it will be next month at the earliest
incursion right after major assault and territory takeover events 😁
Hopefully
it was ironically minded ) would mean "never again " 😁
🤣
Soon* is a running joke here
A bit like those changes to reduce grind time...
ahem
Don’t get me started on grinding
But yeah, Incursions aren't scheduled and won't be for a while
Can’t wait for them to be back and see how they fixed em to break the game again
I hate that picture
Lol, I have always loved that picture. I love doofy dogs.
Just to check.... Apex is announced as 4th Mar - 6th Mar. Is that starting tonight and running tomorrow (4th) or is that starting tomorrow?
Starting tomorrow
Thank you. 👍 Any idea what is on tonight?
There nothing on the calendar, so day off look like
Thanks again. 👍
Last day of faction hunt, no?
Can we have Incursions again
Once they fix it
They fixed the leaderboards
Rss is once again counting
So an update on Incursions would be great!
And not just telling us that it's not on the schedule
That wasn’t the only issue
I’d rather them take their time and hopefully get it done right before they run them again then run them and have to cancel them because of bugs again
And hopefully pick a 6h or 12h path and run that rather than switch from one to another
What if Scopely let the players vote on this?
There haven't been news since eco said that, but there lot of things being worked on right now
One day the survey will materialise 🙂
I just remember listening to either Rev or DJ saying how Incursions is not something players want and that is just not true
We see a fairly even split typically just based on comments. That said, it's only representative of the loudest folks and not everyone. I think there's a place for incursions.... just fixed.
Not good from what I've been reading. LOL
Can't be worse than at work
Right and I'd believe it more if the content creators said it was split rather than stating one side
I m on my way home because our apps died again 😂
So part of the reason some of us complain is probably because we want to prove we want Incursions lol
TBF, some of the loudest folks assumed that everyone had a max vidar by mid thirties 😄
I know I did...
Pretty much every "PvP event" is split, tbh. Personally, I'd like for them to bring back the very first pvp event that we all fudged by attacking a friend's station with a Realta. That was hilarious.
if you don't have a max vidar by time you are 28 you need to git gud
LOL no. I have a day job that is not with Scopely.
I missed that one!
Nope, Jess fixing the code is just a, not quite in joke, but close enough
DJ used to put me on merch as Jess "Fix Your Code" Atreides
It's sort of a running thing
We don't work for scopely, we all have our days job
I don't spend a lot of time in here and just pop in occasionally for the news and gossip and stuff
Gotcha
Lmao
I only made a dozen today
Ty for the advice 🤣
WIthout an event store or incursion is there any other path to the Mantis?
store store
There none right now, hopefully alternate sourcing will be possible until incursion come back
And I should be permitted to server hop at will.
get rid of the brackets and the 1v1
make it a multiverserver free for all
could you imagine the SLBs 
the spite spending on spite spending just cumulating on top of each other
I mean it would mean being closer to an actual end game after such a milking
but scopely would actually have to be able to pull that off
can't get 1v1 to work even 😂
would we even call them whales anymore? wouldn't world turtle be more accurate
Now if only it wouldn't cause the hamsters to self immolate in the first thirty seconds...
Get rid of the timed events, make it 1 long 24 hour event, remove the tokens needed to hop back and forth and let people come and go at will, quadruple the rewards or add a big lat reward and appropriate G3/4/5 materials per bracket to make them more competitive and actually worth the effort.
Watch them run an event for collecting commander bundles after encouraging everyone to use them. Wait for it.
you bet they will
any idea when they are gonna screw this up?
they didn't give a time frame
Arc fall?
wow........
Dose the next Arc start on the 7th?
Either that or the 14th 🤔
More the 7th, or the arc would end in April. But answer sooooooon
Im guessing the 7th as@rough frost said makes more sense to have it then
Hopefully we have an announcement soon to be sure, but without incursion, and with the calendar stopping the 6, make sens
Or we get a week of holidays 🥳
I heard incursions was coming as a super special surprise on Tuesday.
Incursion are delayed till next decade
Denied
No survey, no incursion 😊
Hopefully the survey never comes...
It's kinda what I hope 😃
Put mantis shards in cosmic cleanup, snw ST + Una in mantis refinery. Boom. Done.
And I guess add a weekly event to get more of the building currency? Or maybe a daily trickle
No cosmic cleanup
Why naht
Cosmic cleanup already too busy for new players
Picking and choosing which important ship they can have at a rate of 1/10th per week
I guess so. But it's a guaranteed way to get it (eventually)
Many games make you pick and choose or spend $. Nothing new to the market, IMO
Anyone not seeing officers you get from transport patterns? 😱
Like you aren't getting shards from redemptions or?
No I don’t see any officer options which requires transport patterns
Oh like the redemptions have disappeared? That's strange. Try a restart?
I did restart even clearing cache but not happening
Sounds like it's time for a ticket then
Do you have any patterns or your stock is at zero?
If you reach zero its normal, the chest will be back when you get some more patterns
I have patterns about 130k
Then it's not normal 😅
You have exactly 0 TP that’s why
Oh I’m wrong hmm
I was about get mariner but game crashed and after that I am unable to see any of them
Ticket to support it is then
Okay I have taken a ticket now let see thanks everyone
Wasn’t today a apex event too
Tomorrow 🙂
anyone know what is this month's arc? Voyager?
Probably something around doomsday worms.......... Peeps have been waiting eagerly for worms to matter again
Maybe a Botanybay-A and bigger data nodes? 😱
It's gonna be something 🐕💩
Wait a second. Don't forget the scopely gouge. Stella skin released, people bought, therefore release stella-A so it's obsolete and bigger Armadas for special Stella-a directives.
Available in £££ store pre release like the assaults directives
You heard it here first folks 👀😂
Anyone knows how many parts are there of the Borg arc this year ?
Borg all the way down. You like borg right?
Anyway, the last borg arc is over, and you should expect a new arc to begin later this month.
Anyone know how we are going to get subspace relays now that incursions are cancelled???
The scopely team were discussing it last I heard. But incursions isn't canceled forever, just on hiatus.
How many years until you get a subspace relay equal to your ops with incursions? 84
Just give us 50subspace relays a day in a gift chest and be done with it
Maybe at level one of the building, otherwise that’s worse than the ‘bye month’ chests they’ve been dropping on people,
I'm assuming u must be sourcing them currently 🤔
Ah, jumping right into logical fallacies, love it.
At even low levels the amount you suggest would take months for a single level. That doesn’t improve anything.
Well make it a 100 a day, just give us a source
50x30=1500. Did we get that? I don’t think so.
And that's less than half the amount I need for 1 level.
And I think the point they were trying to make is while something is "better" than nothing, given that we haven't had a source for these for months they either need to make them available enough to be worth while or just not bother at all.
Why I said it’s inadequate, don’t ping me, ping the kibblenobs I responded to.
It’s also why the bye week/winning server chests were an insult as the “we dun durn messed up” chest the past few times.
Even a middling player in the leaderboard brackets gets an order of magnitude more subspace rewards.
$100 says that Scopley releases an officer better than Tal this arc.
5% hull per round...officer ability cumulative %2 crit
New officer for only $100....can't be a very good officer then
Next arc, transport oops...now build your own officer! Memba Tuvix!
last bp went over overflow by 7.5k ?? overflow was done before the last stage of bp
i was going to remark the same... did bob the intern do this BP event too? could scopely have a heart and try to help those that didnt get through ALL of the events in a previous day?
1250 points missing, did all events. Screwed by leveling up it seems
I’m four away from my ops 🤷🏻♂️
🙂 Are you OPS Level 5???? 🙂 ... I know better
i believed you, but was just having fun
Then again had no incursions for ages and then stressful one, happy to wait for fix
Just we need paying in decent events
Two month arc store, let them fix the issues and get some tooling aids. No probs.. but it better be high pay out 😂
All I'm saying is they released all the strike teams...and incursions have been broken sense.
the main problem is incursion have extremely low player engagement, and that is not an easy fix
God forbid...its a series of activities that caters a lil something for everyone
Pve....extra rewards, but risk pvp. (Not a thing currently) Pvp...base raiders do your Thang. Pvp ship on ship is too one sided and outside of an event...its just folks trading blows.
On going events not time based. Like an Kobayashi style event/quest ..it goes for as long as you want /play. Vs do event and log out now
When an incursion is settled just after start, cuz a whale gets raided. Doesn't equal fair or fun
And quite honestly certain servers have whales throw the fight...as they like to see the server burn
is the text wrong in relation to zeta credits and the aug chest because there is nothing under the recruit tab
Post a SS of the text.
zeta tokens are spent in the event store
Yes and thats what confused me. I knew the tokens could be spent in the event store
@pseudo rune @modest frost will there be a slb for weyoun?or only for dukat(again)?
Are you kidding me Scopley. 40k uncommon materials for 12 Gul Dukat shards....🤣
you want the dukat you put up the mat
Weyoun sucks anyways
Hey, help me out. The cardassian event. Spend mats & directives, right? I upgraded wpn on bchor (used 4* mats). Got no pts towards events. What's up with that?
common and ship parts don't count
No ship parts??? Booooooooo
So if they are running interceptor crew auction, when is explorer?
Maybe in the next 84 years
I request battleship crew especially the epic one of strike team 🤣🤣
When they’re worth having 😂
they are still better for explorers than anything else
Disagree, TOS crew.
tos crew get killed by the other two strike teams, while weyoun keep the triangle
they are good for me punching up with low level tos crew
and i can have all 3
They continue to push the hijacked ships in the event rewards, surely with skins the time has come to retire them, or let them be scrapped, or make them useful like allow cloaking! For all the intelligence of khan and his crew they managed to hijack the only ships that didn’t have cloaking installed 🤣
Nope. A yuki Marcus hg worf on a same size explo can waste the explo strike crew and do about as good vs dukat ints.
Why do I have a lvl 56 in my 45 Stella skin event? It’s complete bs! And, if you have the skin, you should not have an event to get it.
If people unlocked the opus grande skin, they don’t get the event again.
I’d be shocked if this lvl 56 doesn’t have the skin.
You would be surprised the number of whales who don’t have things much lower ops people sought out as a priority
Especially if it’s something that takes serious effort to grind and win in a leaderboard.
Im ops 51 and just got it last month, too much work to get and I already had from the outlaw what I needed mostly.
I don’t have the skin soooooooo
That I’m shocked with airs. Lol.
They should be in their own bracket. Not with the 45-46.
Their Stella’s can’t kill madas any faster than you can 🤷🏽♂️
Every Whale I have ever seen has everything as soon as it’s released or gets it on the first event run but maybe there’s just wallet Whales on my Server 🤣
What they should do is implement a element where once you get the skin you can’t score on the leaderboard for the event again preventing the same whales from placing 1st every run just for their stats and not the reward of the skin which you can use on any stella (in this case) once you have it
That already exists. Once you got the opus grande skin you are off the leaderboards. Doesn’t matter your ops.
You cannot get the event, you cannot be on the leaderboard.
Buying this one will be difficult, directives are mostly sourced f2p and effort during the event is how you earn bps.
Good to know, I thought Opus Grande was originally available in store but it’s been so long I can’t remember lol
Nope, was a grind it out only skin
Team work helps too
where are all the uncommon jem'hadar armadas?! been sitting here for over 5 minutes and not one has spawned since i showed up.
@pale kestrel your in a rare and epic system uncommons don’t spawn there they spawn in their own systems kinda like same as Borg Solos
Go to Kurrill the lvl 44 system for uncommons
actually uncommons do spawn here as it is where i usually go for them. they started spawning about 5 hours ago again.
i just took that ss
🤔 the spawn rate has been really slow lately to, I have destroyed armadas and just gave up and left because I watied 30 minutes for a good one with decent rewards to spawn and none spawned in the empty spots.
When I say empty I mean more than one
Starting early....... Patch notes please
You will get these tomorrow after the maintenance start as usual I would guess 🤷♂️
Yes
Yeah no sneak peaking at what they plan on breaking and what something you have to buy to play the game……
Still amazing how Scopely removes an original officer just to release them again but you gotta buy them meanwhile all the original officers are in the ultra recruits section.
It's a Special Feature.!
i answered him too but my comment got deleted as did others that responded with that too.
🤔 there is a reason for that. See #🌠-rules-and-roles12
But, Reading is hard.
Oh. Man. Someone just hit my miner. I am sad , must leave this wonderful place with all you wonderful people ❤️ 💕
Are the events loaded correctly for today? there is pretty much nothing
looks like it. alliance-heavy, which leaves me out
Maint tomorrow, so armada day for apex and lat rush.
Anyone else getting loads of double booked armadas?
armadas respawn faster on mobile version than they do on pc version making in near impossible to start an armada if on pc
Aha interesting
by the time you even see it spawn its already about 30 seconds into another alliance starting it via mobile client
it puts pc players at a huge disadvantage
Yea I bet, although the buggers seemed to have stopped spawning at all now…
that is because there are not enough systems and lag in the few systems causes it to lag out
Yea they really need a few more systems for them, there’s 3 ones at the top which no one uses anyway, up them to lvl 40 and put some in there
Lag is brutal for declaring. Armada was open , but it turns out it had been declare 2 mins earlier. I did not receive any warning that it was active.
Screenshot and CS. They'll nornally refund you the Directives.
Yeah, during apex it happen often
Happen often but why why, why no fix
because older content tends to be forgotten about its issues
Unfortunately the tech just isn't there yet. They will get there
That happen when you stuck a whole server in a few system unfortunately. With luck they will find something to make apex event more fun and less torture
Strippers
You suppose to fight for them! 🥹
Run it during incursions!
i know many players that quit bothering with APEX event cos of the lag and torture
I know
Jem hadar ones in eclipse you just can't see them
Mate I'm steaming work was a struggle after 7 nil yesterday had to get straight back on it to get past it
Full sugar I hope non of this UK nonsense
I don't know, my waistline and therefore life expectancy likes the zero sugar stuff!
Is the next arc coming later tonight the second or third?
It’s not another Borg arc, that finished
Yh Assimilation is over
Really? That was three Borg arcs?
Two
2
Don’t know who told you there was 3
I thought there had been three in every previous cycle
Arcs can be anything from 1-5 🤷♂️
That’s how it’s always been in the past
The mode number is 3 though, so it's a reasonable guess to make...
Usually yeah
But there short arcs are usually 2
Yep
Long ones are 4-5
By definition 😇
The ferengi was 2 I think?
Which was about this time last year? Maybe?
One of the things you have to love about scopley is the consistency and the proliferation of information
And the only single month I remember is the Franklin A/borg/stella rehash we had
Are we all excited for more new armardas? And Scopely fleecing us out if more cash for a new BB or Stella? Or another red to grind or new resources to mine for a pointless buff?
What new ship, officers, & refinery is in tomorrow's arc?
Falcon millennium, Jack O'Neil and stargate refinery
@bitter snow when was that. I need a 2nd Stella and can't get one. It's like I'm being punished for something.
I was hoping for The Pequod so I can go Whale Hunting! 😂
The pequod for whale hunting : registered ✅
Did you just intentionally misname the Millennium Falcon? 👀
the pequod would requires to buy 3 packs to build it 🤣
When does the next battlepass start?
Take a wild guess based on #⭐-official-announcements
ooh ooh ooh... Tuesday March 7th!!! 🙂
Do the battlepass rewards change from level 22 to 23? I am trying to decide if I should upgrade tonight before the battlepass starts.
Thx!
So if maintenance is tomorrow morning at 3am, then that means Apex will be cut short a day or will there be overlap as happened with Crucible day 3, Faction Hunt day 1?
Apex finish tomorrow
Okay that’s what I thought
3 days event, we are on day 3
Oh that’s right yesterday was Apex hunter somewhere I lost a day😅
Their will be 100% new reds, that was only clear thing in DJz cryptic hints
Reducing the grind by increasing the grind!
Reduce grind by spending $*
I’ll take new reds over a sixth straight month of a new type of armada
This is exactly why I’m almost out of faith in the community.
We asked for grind reduction, so they brought Vidar Exos and the Talios, both of which let you grind Borgs faster. Both were also readily available F2P.
But no, the people who had stopped grinding now felt obligated to start again, and said that the grind was actually increased. It’s a load of nonsense.
I haven’t climbed the Tal paywall yet, but again he’s there as a QoL improvement for people who want to use cash.
I know what’s coming tomorrow, I managed to get a sneak peek from a translator. It reduces grind time but requires a little actual thought. Like this game used to have, things that make you think and test how to beat them. Will people be happy? I’m guessing not, but that’s 100% on them, not Scopely.
Personally, I think people should stop trying to "optimise the game" when they don't enjoy it. If you want to spend the time grinding everything you can all power to you. But do what you enjoy, just because an event comes up, or a ship comes out doesn't mean you have to interact with it. Its how I try to play my game and I think its made me enjoy it more than if I cared about every little thing
yeah, go figure people want new content to be enjoyable. Shame on them 😂 I dont think the Talios is a marked improvement and I dislike having to chose between faction credit, borg starts or upgrading the ship and most people I know in game feel the same.
But opinions are diverse, Im never really sure what opinion Scopely bases their decisions on though, a few big swings and misses.
They base on metrics, not opinions.
Talios hasn’t changed my grind…I wasn’t grinding probes before, and I’m not now. The updated Borg refinery is very meh, for me. So I ignore it. Basically, the Tally is a bigger Vidar with which to hunt OPC (including OPC probes)…but it was free…so I’m fine with it.
Not sure why you have to choose. T4 Tally here and I do credits & sphere calls daily, with enough left to upgrade every day or two.
Can anyone tell me what the current player brackets are in slb n xslb ? Please thanks
No
Because they change all the time
And differ for different events
But that will take forever to upgrade the ship. I am throwing everything in upgrade the ship for now.
The ship is painfully slow to upgrade, without cash.
it's not that bad so far but I am sure it will be like the D'vor!
Check the events section on this site and you'll find the bracketing info there. Similar events can have different brackets, but you'll at least be able to get a sense of what is usual.
https://stfc.space/
Just spot checking, at Talios T3 I would get a max 50k Charged Nanos daily. Daily solo directives are 140 Dirs/35,800 Nanos (or the 100 / 28,800) and Independent Credits are 230 Creds / 12,250 Nanos. Assuming you do 140 Directive Option 5 out of 7 days (1 start per day at a lower average cost), and independent credits every day, that's a total surplus of 85,250 Charged Nanos per week. The component costs of a T3 Vidar are 77k, 105k, 105k, 91k, 70k, 84k, 84k, 84k, so basically 1 component per week, or two months for a tier at that rate. To get to a component every 2 days, that's basically using all charged nanos for upgrades (700k manos total, so 14 days of no purchases, averaging out to slightly faster 1 than component every 2 days)
working as intended
you can't have your cake and eat it too, unless you buy a pack with the fork
Yeah, the issue is the previous poster explicitly said upgrades every couple of days, lol.
Ain’t nothing fast/cheap about upgrading Tally…as expected…
You missed the part where prime owners get double the charged nanos.
Ah, yup, that would indeed make a big difference.
I've decided to get my talios to t6 then I will start collecting other stuff from the borg refinery, I think it's a decent place to sit fora while, it gets extremely expensive after t6
2 more weeks for t6
That gives me around 4500 independent credits a week and around 9k faction credits a week plus borg solo directives
Lol I'm more of a minnow than a whale haha
The issue with this game is that's it's engineered to ensure a high level of daily engagement by players (Scopely boasted about this in an article). I would agree with you if that "engineering" was dialed down a little like it is olin other games. For example shields, unless you want to purchase longer shields, you'd have to log in 3 times a day, at a time dictacted on you by the game, to reset them. On Battlepasses, if you miss more than 1 day of event daily, you miss out on the free badges on the last tier, pretty much enforcing participation if you want to progress as badges are a big bottleneck. I can't speak for all players, but I love star trek, and I signed up to this mobile game.rather than star trek online so I didn't lose hours every day in the game
I stick by the ascertion that this games punishes non-whale players progression harder then any other mainstream mobile game for not grinding for hours every day
Not trying to be a pain but in my eyes your problem is you are comparing yourself to whales. As for the shield stuff, if you are in any half decent alliance that finishes COW you'll have plenty off shields
Yes some of the grinds are very helpful in progression but none are necessary
Apart from maybe faction rep
In my expirence if you go about comparing yourself with other players in general it will just lead to burnout and annoyance about the game in general
New research in this arc seems to be geared to reducing grind… by introducing another thing to grind.
if it works, who cares
if it doesnt, we war
It's 6 hostiles per day, i m waiting to see how they can get killed and how worth that daily is
Whatever happens I enjoy the company of you guys n whales in my alliance and my personal choice of being f2p player with going slow and enjoying the game 🤣🤣
But the warp time 🤣
i hope they arent like scouts
i.e., hard to find
If they are that's nice cause I don't do scouts either 🤣
The objective is to help the grind, so I doubt they are hard to find
The "hard to kill" worry me more
If they are hard to kill next month there will be a new ship that makes them easier to kill
Tal
Money isn't that creative
who the heck is tal?
I wonder if the new picard means I'll get the old one
Old/new officer
ups... TAL is totally bugged. pls dont fix him
Shush otherwise they will nerf him
fixed it 🤣
They axed him
Tal is good but eventually your mantis cargo will be much much bigger than your lvl 46 ship and you'll probably want to use mantis again
Tal was explicitly reworked for this arc and the new hostiles.
Doesn’t mean they won’t stop him working elsewhere
True. Just can hope they won't. However I think Tal will stay like he is right now.
I just hope they will give a way to get him without creatively having to use a credit card
They could just put him in the elite rom recruit
Putting him in an overpriced elite pack, in the middle of 40 others officer we already have?
No thanks. Spending a tribune worth of Rom credit for one officer isn't worth it
I've heard of players moving to bigger cargo ships than the 46s. Talios can get plenty big, and there's also the G5 surveys.
You know what would had been great? A mystery event. Make us do trivia and milestone for a full unlock of a mystery officer, hive us clues etc....
And surprise, tal 😃 would had been fun. And no worry, they would had bough upgrade pack too
I think I heard something like that too. I would think that the actian farm prime would be something those players would have. I'm guessing there is a point where the mantis starts to roll over the lvl 49 hostiles. If so you'd be missing out on the prime bonus if you have it
No worries. There should be events giving shards + options to get shards for him.
Yet another faction 🙄
it's not as bad as you think
Every other month another faction added it’s getting silly
Players - There's too much stuff to grind every day.
Scopely - Here's another hostile to grind daily.
I'm tentatively optimistic about it. The FAQ stated 6 hostiles, and if that can replace all my other grinds, then that's huge.
I wouldn’t mind all the new grinds so much if they added dailies for them. Without that it’s just a bunch of extra stuff to do.
Would also help to manage rep if I don't have to kill rom
Good work scopley. Reducing time needed to spend in this game by releasing another faction and more grind mechanics. Seems I bad understood with my potato English. 🤮
Can sumday translate intay Scottish a canny git ma heed aroon it 😬
Tak to pomohlo 🫣
@pseudo rune what happened to reduce grind already u add so much I can't do everything needed now I add more
Wait till the game loads up and see how the arc plays out 🤷♂️
Super hard hostiles
As a substitute for the mantis?? Am I missing things here? 😱😱
Hostiles needing to be creative
I hope they give a box of crayons with the update 🖍️
There's a new Tal crew: 5 Tal Burn. Can be used on lots of diff ships, and some are using them on 46s to kill the top Actians in 49 space.
Noone uses mantis anymore if you are 48+
I'm 52... I'm learning things. 🙈😁
Should be able to use it and get tons of venom in just a handful of hits.
T1 is enough, he totally breaks the loop even then.
Yep
Wow.... I can't wait to try this
I've heard of players testing with it, but I do not know how well it works.
Pilum is way more cargo then mantis.. so I'm all for it!
I saw nothing about the event store
There shouldn't be any this month
Assimilation is over, and there's no event store in this first part of the new arc.
Looks like less grind 😁😁😜😜
And luckily not many prime added. Actually this month prime is around double up the gap between f2p,light spenders vs. Spenders
It's usually at the end. Arcs lasted 3 months before.
Works even fine with 42 ships on lvl 48 apex
No New ship? 😦
We just got one, we don't need one every month
But but Picaaaard
We wont get La’Sirena for a long time right
Or Voyager
But im so glad game is easier a bit than 2019
Mega Event store i meant. Usually runs the last (3rd) month of an arc. Apparently different
probably in last legacy part now 🙂
Aghhaaa i know you xd
I’ve been crying about voyager for over 4 years 🙈
SHould i go after Apex or the normal ones?
Apex is where the loot is.
I tried with my t1 on 49s but it didn't work as well as the pilum and repair cost....well yeah.
Oke, good to know 😄 thanks for the reply!
Update looks super promising. I’m all about being able to reduce the grind. :D. I wonder if the lower decks buff to the assimilate officers will make them worth running.
Lol best compact ship it was till sirena xd
Let’s be honest if they bring voyager and her crew that’s a good 3 months worth of arc content
Definitely and well that would be good time for borg faction and instead of talios, voyager would be good one..
@pseudo rune @modest frost more grinding. LMAO
Nero triggers more often hehe better 🙂
Nero live in ata
Man get the grind out what is left its nice to be busy
I already have to schedule my solo mada around eury leave, I m not scheduling apex around nero 😅 georgiou will do
No fair call
That's 6 hostiles. And their faction store give stuff to help with others loop
Wait till its live
If this actually reduces grinding I: will believe it when I see it; expect it to be broken: would think $copley could afford a copy writer who could actually explain what they were trying to do instead of leaving it to community mods to say "wait till it goes live".
does he trigger per weapon hit or max once per weapon?
If I can skip eclipse for 6 hostiles, I m in
6 hostiles of lvl55?
Depend of your op most probably
We will know tomorrow 🤷
I hightly doubt they ask an op 38 to kill 55.
It always scale, per op or per rep, but there some scaling
Yeah, another grind. Let's see, borg, swarm, faction, jem Hadar, solo armadas, eclipse, not to mention mining.
i don't do lat mining, eclipse and borg
Then you are not the average player. Swarm for frank a is silly to skip
I mine Lat once a week just to get ride of Lat rush quickly 😅
Yep, Jem hadar, borg and swarm are the most important.
At op 49, I don't care much about those resource really, I haven't do swarms in weeks
Adding another one to the daily grind….I’m sceptical
I am 46, 100 mil+ trit a day is just not something worth tossing aside. More important than eclipse.
Jem hadar I don't do either. Defiant chest + the tribute dailies guarantee me one chest of rep and one green armada. Sometimes even 2 rep chest
Creative = tal
Nothing is free man nothing xd
They probably work more like a 52+ so pvp crew or similar
Just let the nerd test for you, we will know soon enough who to use
Feels like orion slave watching ships pass by from station xd
The problem is; more and more new grinds without reducing old ones. In addition every new building need some special new resource which you’ll get through a daily container….additional daily clicks
New starters have no idea how game works right now xd but also stfc is not for new players or young or poor right xd
not meant for anyone that has any responsibilities in life
Even if you keep spending money you still have to do the daily grinds…there’s no eclips Prime: loots all eclips containers a day automatically for free
The borg faction literally helps reduce/skip old ones as its noted in patch notes and every SS above
I hope you are right; I really do
I wanna see that
Well lets just hope can "SKIP" more then 1 a day 😄
I wanna see your reaction after you seeing that xd
So does Picard work with synergy or not. Announcement says both yes and no.
yes i like to see that in real first:D
The first servers should be up soon enough, so screenshot will be here
because reduction old loop in scopley mind can be ...grind 1yeard and reduction will be 5 percent 😄
Exactly
Why did they cap swarm rewards at ops 40?
They didn't
Ops 50 is same rewards as ops 40
they hade huuge ooportunity with exocomps... go kill one swarm and daily done, go kill one 1-2 stellas and cargo will be full
They should change grinding to be more like amalgam. Spend 1h and be done for a month
Swarm Sunday? Old event. Was only revamped once
but what they did .. they hide it for 15minutes insted of one huge epic exocom for vidar for 2 hours with 500percent bonus
I only do the swarm dailies for the milestone points for daily chest. dont care much about the refinery
So which is it?
Change borg raffiniery prices; cut 1/4….so 2x grind is enough for 1 week. Jem hadar…./2. mantis, etc….. but let’s see what new research brings
Other comments suggest the bridge officers don’t have to be in the same officer group just not the same type
Why am I suspicious of anything from $copley that has an "or buy" option?
Sounds like wishful thinking. More likely he is another Rom and the numbers were included by mistake
Doubt I’ll get him anyway, sounds like he’s behind more SLBs
still don't have TNG picard 😂
There always a few servers on early
And they feed discord with all the new stuff, for people who can't wait 15 more min
They cannot show anything faction store related anyway since it's locked by a mission that will be given out later. They could show the mess hall and the researches. But that's about it.
Ohh and the new systems + hostiles. I forgot
The location will be above the new borg system and below the eclipse space. If people are looking for it 👋
Isn't it already the case (close enough) with the Stella?
Takes me longer get there than to fill it 😉
yes but that was one point skip it entireli, same with swarms ... one kill with some exocomp for all swarm daily reduce the time loop, and you still need to go there 10m and back 10 min so scopley is happy u play game and the player is happy he dont need to spend there another 20 minutes
so stella same, keep some expocomp for hger players /lowers can do game deasign feature/ go to system , kill one stella to fill and go back
same with vida, same with Data mining /if somebody need still source khan / etc... all old loops should be speed up once some lvl is reach so they keep content for lover lvls and you can as you progress in game focus on new loops
test
test failed
no I have problem with one pdf on discord and just tested
It's a feature
Look quite interesting
Swarm one is spicy, I've been neglecting my FA. Nice shortcut for me.
looks very promising
yeh, but it is nice for days when you don't have time to play much, you can do all dailies in one swoop
Didn't even think of that...that will be nice
Well, if 1 freestuff give 10 points, and I need 25 points per dailies....
Save me 15 min travel to dds, kill 3 hostile, and done?
Feel like Christmas 😂
Right? I can get it done before id even warp to a ds system lol
Feels like Christmas…..but let’s wait for the research credit sourcing🤣🤣🤣
How much do we get per day
Just tested killing these guys. Ent t6 with Pmc struggles against 38. however if you go for Kirk-snw pike-snw spok…..easy lvl 40 kills
Gonna be a while if it's as slow as getting defiant upgrade parts 🤣
Just waiting for the daily payout to be 60 credits….so 20 days for the first upgrade…..there is no way they make it easy 😅😅😅🙈
The problem with the research is you loose the ship parts you'd get as loot. The biggest loss is g4 ship parts. Doing it the old way you get your dailies done, get extra rep, and get parts for the refinery.
Not even 12hrs post update and already bugged....my mission has gone poof
And soo the issues begin
“only lag” 😝
Sometimes it's lag and a little extra bug
It's always "a little extra bug"
why the hell have they even changed the gifts tab? It was fine as it was. Guess this is just another bug waiting to happen
Sounds like a hot meal xD
Just missed that! Correct…..but wait…..you could just buy the 4s and 5s Prime node for compensation🤪
Saving us clicks with game play grind reduction! Got to make up for it somewhere else!
probably lag/load time reduction cause now only a third of the tiles has to be loaded at once.
Just make the new hostiles give out 10,000 broken per kill and we’re gold
The bajoran refinery give me far more than the normal refinery
I don't mind skipping that one
Where are these new Hostiles systems?
Thanks!!!
So no treasury rods this time?
Usually find those in the overflow. What's in there?
they are always in the overflow
I see the zoom bug is back 👀
Not scoring corretly with epic shards
Was it ever fixed?
@modest frost no incursion chest to give us sourcing we can’t get without incursion?
Ah yes, my fault!!
SSpock, Kang, Khan does it for me, exp vs int @ 45.
Zoom bug never went away!!!! 😡
This was the free gift payout even for ops level 12, great gift!
Is there supposed to be a gift today to get credits to run the new mission?
Do your BP event. There are enough diodes in M2 of the free BP track which is enough to unlock it.
I don’t see dailies either
Lol. The chat is what…. Another Picard. Can’t get the first one….. just sharing
probably daily reset
So we wait 24hr delay til next reset tonight??
daily reset is in 10.5H
daily goals reset
Then we should get a gift to start up for today
there is a mission
to unlock store
Dailies Reset and Event Reset dont happen at the same time, your new dailies wont start till tomorrow 4am UK time
Do u the name of the mission?
we are people too
Ok, I try it
why in gods name does the $20 Mess Hall pack disappear the second the $20 BattlePass pack is bought? Now only the $99 Mess Hall pack is available, when their were four of the $20 ones before I bought the Battle Pass
They sure are using Cita Laga a lot in the missions today... Copy Pasta!!!!
How is it possible to have that score after 30 minutes from the start of the event?
buy a pack
The research sms has a 300 Pt milestone…I’m not seeing a research that costs 300….? They’re all way more expensive. Is this intended?
@versed osprey the story of STFC in one phrase 🤣
You could argue that Scopely are Pack-Led
I'll get my coat...
Hi, this probably a dum question. where are the side missions Château Picard & The stowaway? I probably can't find them as I'm only a level 26.
holodeck
i accidently picked the wrong mission is it the 38 one that unlocks the faction store?
@versed osprey Ah, cheers buddy. Much appreciated. 👍
that one is called we are people too
bugger when will we be getting more mission tokens?
milestone 2 of BP
so do the BP event
ah ok so kill some borg it is
if you got frank A, killing swarms is way easier
yeah but also need to kill some borg to do today's refine
@pseudo rune @modest frost Really only 600 pieces after the mission, you can't even start 1 or 2 research . And still no daily after completing this mission
I thought @pseudo rune saying it going to get better with improvement for us
Daily will come at daily reset in 10 hours
Okay 👍 free chest to compensate the start of atleast 2 research or 1 would be nice for lack of materials in the mission
We got a chest to build up 3 lvl of new building, how about the research especially there is a sms going for it(slb are always for whalers)
How do you build ex Borg rep?
There’s a chest in the daily collection bundle will get you to 4
Please for the love of god, remove the GIFT chests, what a pain in the rear having more clicks to claim chests, happy for the 24 hour ones to be stacked but honestly why would you do it to the 10, 4 hr, you want to give us all RSI
Buy a research pack or several, and bash out some of the new research nodes.
what crew for the new hostiles?
Do you have to be Ops 38+ to obtain the new Borg Projectile Cannon refit?
wheres the new exo for freeloaders
Any arc plan out yet?
I am ops 46 but no refit
A 668k hostile for a lvl 15 mission? Is that right? The Stoaway part 1?
@cedar laurel I just thought I saw someone with it equipped in game and was wondering how they got it
Did anyone else notices they decimated the free battle pass material rewards? It was over 200 ore for the last milestone and now its less than 50 (OPs 35)
Ops 47 and don't have it in my store.
Yes eco knows
okay
Yes, quite a few people have mentioned it.
I tried to find someone else mention it, but there are hundreds of messages today lol
My points for Killing 40 exchange points was cut in 1/2 after ops 46. Used to be 12 million for 40 transport and now it's 6M
Well, you need to hover here all day like the rest of us no-lifers and you'd see it too. 😛
I dont see an event calendar yet?
Me neither, really want to plan out my month
They usually take a bit to release it, I don't think I've ever seen it right away.
It took a day of two last month
Of course, they do have a habit of removing things at the last minute too.
Calendar never comes out right away and they always make changes anyway, but yes, it’s usually useful
