Year of Hell is coming! | STFC's January 2025 Preview - Department of Temporal Investigations

Game needs a clean up!!! Scrolling to find things is killing me!

ughhh...the multiverse is coming to star trek fc. hopefully they dont butcher it like disney did

IA building was nice, but lets be real IA removed 4 loops (Vi'dar and Talios are the same loop at the end of the day so while the 2 of them make 5 things in the IA it 4 loops.) They added 9 loops in 2024. New loops are still out pacing removing old loops and way to high a rate.

Yes I get the game needs new content and new things for people to do, but why can Scopely not be like other games. A major new thing ever 4-6 months, with the time between the new loops work on actually fixing and improving old loops. There is a lot they could expand on in the current loops that would be new content without adding new grinds, and the whales would still pay to get it done right away.

My alliance just had a 70, the latest in a several whales who left the game because it is becoming all about new loops, more play time, more spend, and more bugs not being fixed. They are going to drive off all the whales at this rate, and then the game will go into a slow death spiral, and it is such an easy change to make going back to the old days where a we only had 3 new loops a year, and other content drove the spending.

More rubbish being added to the game 🤦

HOW ABOUT WE FIX THE LAG FIRST????

Trade is good, but I think there should be a way to donate materials within an alliance. Perhaps an Alliance Bank controlled by leaders of that alliance. That would be a good way to encourage teaming and quick advances. NCC1887

Haven't played since July, worth coming back?

The Franklin needs to go in the Archive.

The Dvor does too.

not sure about Stella given how big its weekly is. i guess if you do. more noteriety for materials?

I think the Mantis can too. But it's Forbidden Tech becomes worthless

Who's surprised the first thing in 2025 is a new loop? Did they already forget about the IA? There are so many more old loops that could go in there, for me to have any faith they need to give us a roadmap for the IA and stick to it.

OMG!!! Not another faction store!!!! Not liking it at all. As for the material conversion, it be great if they also let us convert our common material into uncommons and rares. I wish they fix some of the broken stuff in the game instead of bombarding us with so many new mechanics that most likely will be broken in some way. Like the IA collecting, anyone notice that it does not always gives us transporter patterns and just shows the picture of the officers with a red 0 instead? The same thing happens when I pull for the fleet commander and instead of those dust parts I just get the officer pic with the red 0. So I don't get the transporter pattern nor do I get those dust particles to collect. In honor of below decks ending, I was hoping they give us the ISS Cerritos or at least a new ship skin or maybe even a sovereign class Cerritos.

So... the DTI building is available to Ops +42... Why teasing people under that Ops level to think they will be able to exchange those mats?

Looks like 42 is the new 40, started with Revenant and now DTI building. How long before new buildings/ships require ops 45?🤔

The biggest bottleneck is not materials now, but ship parts. We need more rare ship parts for 4*+.

Sounds like they are moving in the right direction, now we just need a filter or a trade-in on old currency (ideally both) I would love a filter to exclude all old currencies so I can see more quickly those I need

I'm curious how scoply is doing with new members joining stfc. Maybe is just me but the game feels like in decline

I’ve been wondering for awhile - - with ALL these buffs, upgrades, abilities, cumulative, armada, hostile, non-armada, players, stacking abilities, bridge, below deck, Chaos tech, Forbidden Tech, multiphasic, artifacts, exo-comps, and much more; how do we KNOW all these things actually WORK together? I mean at any one time you could have 15 things that are supposed to activate during one battle. I’m not overly confident in Scopley’s algorithms.

What happened to the promises of improving QoL? This update is just more of the same old monetization tactics. You're losing players fast if you keep this up

if the tax is on par with time investment for scrapping im fine with that, cause scrapping is pretty tedious, especially xp grind after upgrade

Pay to upgrade a building so they can rip you off on the conversion rate…effectively slowing down your overall progression. Yes…you may need that rare gas today…and converting your rare ore may sound good…but tomorrow you will need that ore and you will be effed!!

Not gonna buy

more things added that i really think about quiting the game....i spend 2 hrs a day to do all the loops and refinery, etc....i'm a working man....i like the game a lot....but adding more "clicks" makes me wanna quit the game.....and i play for 6 years....seriously Scopely?

So the new ship will be a timeship, I expected that for quite some time. At least it would be a canon ship but I already see it being another boring one-trick pony. PS: gimme a borg sphere, I wanna use a holding beam to farm ships for stuff via assimilate. Would also be cool if you could slowly drain bases with it and getting stronger with time. I am giving you free ideas here ( well you can gimme something back for it, I wont mind)

Despite being first used over 5 years ago, part of the Decoded Data node resembles the front end of the Krenim dreadnought to me.
Seems $¢opely is copying the practice of TV series recycling props. e.g. 1) Nomad in 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝘾𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙚𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜 & Romulan cloaking device in 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙀𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙥𝙧𝙞𝙨𝙚 𝙄𝙣𝙘𝙞𝙙𝙚𝙣𝙩.
2) dome of Lazarus' ship in 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝘼𝙡𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙣𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝙁𝙖𝙘𝙩𝙤𝙧 & covering the Providers in 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙂𝙖𝙢𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙨 𝙤𝙛 𝙏𝙧𝙞𝙨𝙠𝙚𝙡𝙞𝙤𝙣.

Need more ship parts refined sourcing not broken parts they're such a bottleneck

how bout give me a better uc and rare ship mats drop rates. tired of getting commons.

i get taxed enough in RL.

Another blooming loop with gops of currency. We need a trade-in for 5 yr of leftover currency, storage is computer space which bogs system

I want to convert unc g5 ship parts to rare g5 ship parts. When?

Didn't we just finish a year of hell?

Like!

I’d rather Scopely took a month off New junk and FIXED things first. Maybe fix lag, crashes and the Many, Many, Many bugs. Maybe fix the periodic purple squares around mining nodes that have been an on off problem for Years.

Hear me out. Instead of adding new stuff, why doesn’t scopely take old content and recycle it with new features. Off the top of my head, take the doomsday worms and their armadas. Considering they look like portals already, why not when defeating one, it’ll open a portal to random faction system of that level for a time that your entire alliance can use. No cost or travelling but only for starting and defeating it.

Just what we don’t need more buildings, loops, currency. Voyager was one of the weakest Star Trek shows.

the tax shud be lat or common mats

The name ALONE gives me dread.

Leave it to Scopely to tax something in game for conversions. Even when we win, they win. Taxation is theft, even in Fleet Command. :P

@rev are they going to update the ship stats with Apex Barrier and Isolytic Cascade as "I believe" they both dont show and this would be so helpful if they actually added them in the ship detail section so you can see before PvP or PvE. I do not believe this is available and I think its very needed to see in ship details now.

I would also like to see them fix the alliance tournaments and Arena before they add in more items. Task refresh does not work in AT, and you have to close the game down and reload to get a new task.....super annoying.

What they have actually brought out is not bad like you say if they bring old loops to an end.

I think so far it sounds nice. Yea it's a new currency, but as someone who has left for a long time and come back I think being able to aquire some of the old currency with a new loop is pretty awesome! For me, the telling factor will be the rewards overall.

More loops need to go into the archive

sweet, another thing that i will get to completely ignore as i focus on the 643648765857 other daily tasks and tedious collections i already have to do.

I'm looking forward to the new building and the material exchange for sure. Still hoping to allow us to exchange old, unused items into something useful eventually, but a step in the right direction.

Need a way to trade materials up also, need a way to do same for ship parts. Need a way to trade old currency that was earned ! So many old currencies. it's impossible to navigate it in inventory. We should get something for unused currency we could not spend too little to buy anything.

Thx Rev.

Why did they start DTI at level 30, but you needs OPS 42 to Unlock it?!?!?!!?!?!?

I was confused. Do you mean the Year of **** events?

I don't have a problem with the tax. From a "real world" perspective, you usually can't convert 100% of something into 100% of something else. You usually have some loss of the "raw material". I don't love how quickly it scales though when you go from 1 to 2 to 3 chests.

Level 42. Zzzzzzzzzzzz

There is so much more now compared to 3 or 4 years ago. So many things to try to accomplish. So many ships that I still don't have. Pay ! Pay ! Pay ! Scopley is killing this

LLAP

one temporal credit pull will take me 3 months to do. There is no reason for me to do this arc
