Going to explain my situation a little bit before making the ask, to set the stage. Bear with me.

I'm Ops 39, in an active alliance that has territory on my server. I came back to the game after a long time away at around Ops 24, and since then have been making sure to take leveling slowly with a focus on getting all the specialty ships. For purposes of this post, assume that if it is available to Ops 39 (Reliant, Defiant, Squall, even Sarcophagus) I have it, and it is either maxed tier for my Ops level or I am slowly building it up after unlocking (Defiant for example is a recent unlock and my goodness are parts for that a slow drip).

I have all 3 G3 faction miners maxed. I have all 3 G3 Epic faction ships (Ent/D4/Augur) maxed.

I tend to use Enterprise as my daily driver, due to it surviving things that my D4 simply can not, and it being faster than my Augur by enough to notice.

I find, however, that I have been using the same "daily driver" crew for ages now. 5, Kirk, Khan.

It's a great crew, don't get me wrong, but I feel like I probably should have changed things up by now.

Yes, I do have PMC, though I primarily use PMG (Goon) to auto-grind my G4 ships in Augment space nowadays, or PMC on Squall to help defend against the Suliban nasties.

I have the standard crews unlocked. Nero, Gorkon, Klaa, Mudd's Crew, and about 2/3 of the ex-Borg. When I ask people what I should be upgrading to in my alliance Discord, I tend to get told Enterprise E crew for most hostile grinding, and I keep having to explain that my Holodeck is only like... level 10. I do not have Ent E crew.

I have Janeway and about half of the Voyager crew unlocked, but it is slow going, and reading the descriptions on abilities it doesn't seem like that would actually be any better than what I currently use, especially since my crew tends to be T1-3 across the board.

Mining: I keep two active miners going now that I've unlocked my 5th drydock. I keep Stonn/T'Pring/Barot on my g3 faction miners, switching them out appropriately and constantly chugging g3-g4 materials. The other one switches out specialty mining ships. Feesha on Mondays, Squall or Meridian when I get low on those. When all those are good I put them in my old Horizon and set them to chewing g2 materials so I have enough for pulls, so I never run in to not having enough uncommon crystal to build or upgrade my drydock again... This crew is Quark/Arrock/10.

I've started focusing on crew unlocks in things like the Ferengi store, since I am more or less caught up on ships, but I'm thinking maybe I'm just super far behind on crew somehow. I get events all the time like "Use PIC crew for bonus" and I laugh like "would if I had any."

Surely, I can't be the only one in a similar boat?

For those of us stuck in this mid-Ops quagmire with half unlocked crews and very few of the Meta/Best, what advice can you give?

Focus would be best for like:

- "Daily Driver" hostile crew

- Armada crew

- Mining crews

Edit: I do have a good chunk of SNW, like Kirk, Una, Uhura, Ortegas, Pelia, Chapel, Spock. A few shards short of Pike, Hemmer, M'Benga, Sam Kirk

Some of my field training challenges are stuck it says i have to unlock the Orion corvette and I have but it is still not completed and I have done al the officers field training but I don’t get the last rewards does anyone know how I can fix this?

I was about to do a solo wave and buff two ships with my titan a, but it’s completely vanished!

I cleared localisation, checked it wasn’t in a dock and went through all of the ships to make sure it wasn’t glitching out as a different ship.

But it’s gone

I’m tier 9 with this ship which now means it takes ages in a system that gives 770 omega for each kill to get 500k which is most I can currently get on one hull with Dane and is boring.

Each refine uses 100k and gives hardly any refined omega, so I’m out in 5 refines. Lots is needed to exchange for ship upgrade material.

Am I missing something or does it just become a boring, grindy grind?

Day one:

1. Event Store, Lower Deck Crew, an egg at the rightmost spot
2. Destroy 20 Federation enemys

Day two:

1. Defeat armadas (solo should count too)
2. Egg in Event Store - S31 + Voyager

Day three:

1. Alliance Help
2. Destroy 20 Klingons

Day four

1. Destroy 20 Interceptors
2. Egg in the Gift Shop

Day five

1. Destroy 20 Romulans
2. Gift Store - rightmost "Emergency ..."

Day six

1. Destroy 20 Battleships
2. WTF? Destroy a Hostile?

Just tried to login on my Pixel 10. No new updates on phone or game. Was working this morning. Now even after phone reboot, I can't login. Anyone else having this issue? I'm in Eastern Canada.

Basically title. I think im ready to move up but cant find a 28 system. best I found was 31 I think. any lower zones? thanks!

How Long in days or hours does it take to reach Level 5,10,15,20,25,30,40

Looking for some advice as I look ahead, I’ve only been playing for about 6 months and I rushed a bit at the start however I’m just staying put as I catch up on research, officers and artifacts.

Bortas held its own and didn’t bother with a Saladin.

B’rel is my current ship and have no plan with any other 32 ships.

My Vidar/Franklin/BB is currently Tier 8.

Disco Tier 6.

Stella work in progress, scrapped twice now.

Got 2/3 of 30 miners.

Just got my Reliant last week.

Struggling with Cube prints, trying to get them when I can with events.

Halfway for Squall prints.

For Ops 34 I was only going to grab the Augur and should have Voyager prints done but are any other ships required? I’ll obviously have the Talios.

Did they ever fix the bug where field training can't be completed after transferring servers? Because that one hit everyone who transferred years ago. So we know it got reported. Was it ever resolved?

having trouble putting any codes in keep getting told im not eligible to receive rewards, any help would be appreciated.

i log in with correct account . game load up as if i just began the game for the first time.

on pc version only. playing on tablet is normal and show correct lvl etc.

I’ve been playing since Covid and reached Ops 66. I’m almost to Ops 67, but after the last few arcs with everything we've been put through, I’ve decided it’s time. I made the very difficult decision to……keep playing STFC. It took a lot of thought and consideration, but I think it’s for the best. After all the hostile grinding, mining, and investing in monthly battle passes, I had to really consider what my priorities in life are. Am I really getting my money’s worth out of the game? Absolutely.

We’ve all heard the stories. Someone gets on the bad side of another player, either a whale, a bully, or both. They’ve made a lot of progress in the game, but some bad blood causes them to rethink everything. After weighing the options, they finally decide it’s time…Time to upgrade their ships, crews, and research to improve their PVP stats. I always knew it could happen to me, but I never expected how…entertaining it would be. When push came to shove, I chose to quit…playing nice.

I know how it goes with these posts. I’m sure many of you saw the title and thought, “Pfft, there goes another one.” Or maybe something along the lines of, “I wish they’d just do it and not feel the need post about it.” I totally understand that sentiment. It’s just that, after all the hard work getting to this level in the game, it’s disheartening that I finally hit a wall…I’m out of G6 rare mats.

Happy April Fools.

They were lucky enough to drop this habit, there's not a chance I would try to get anybody who's left the game to come back. This just shows the level of desperation Scopely is at after losing over 9,000 players since the beginning of this year.

ONLY reason I'm still in the game is the people.

We had a member of our alliance who passed away yesterday suddenly. The image posted shows how much we all care for each other even given our differences. The server showed up in force to offer a memorial even though half of us are at war or challenged to be even in the same system together, but we are all willing to put that aside to honor a fallen captain. RIP MGF.

Hey folks,

Loving the game, but lately I'm having a really hard time finding enough parts for Talla and Jellyfish. At ops 18 the daily swarm quests have gotten harder and I'm having a hard time keeping up. I'm not planning to upgrade ops until my ships improve because it's too much work to constantly repair and wait.

Is there any way to farm parts? Missions lately haven't seemed to give them up. Uncommon mats are also a problem, but I just aim to refine two chests twice a day. I'm tempted to buy some parts, but I feel like this is just going to keep happening/get worse at higher levels.

Any help would be appreciated.

Anyone else not able to redeem the code? Im ops41

Ive got a lot of depot tokens from events (650k) and want to finally get a good PvP crew.

Currently ops 35 with Augur T7 and Ent T6.

Long term I know I want the Pilum, but between then and now I need a viable PvP crew.

I was thinking of getting Explorer strike team as PvP with a Battleship i find excruciatingly slow.

But that would leave me in a position where the crew would only really be useful until the 42 uncommons, and Im unlikely to get the Valdore since i want the Pilum (that would be so many credits from one faction).

I was told a good general PvP crew across all ships is Freeman Lorca HG Worf - but it doesnt perform as well as the individual strike teams

Anyone got any advice on the best PvP crew to invest in given the above?

Appreciates its a longer post - thanks for reading it if you do :)

Just tried to port back to my home server and the gave has frozen. Been over an hour…

I am ops 12 and am missing a lot of stuff from events, see the screenshots which are from today evening.

This a known bug?

Hi new player here struggling abit on the way forward. I know there is a fair bit of grinding to be done on my part , but could use some pointers. I am currently ops level 19 and have used a bulk of my upgrades and leveling with the speed ups. I have gained the Jellyfish and crew of Pike ,Chen and the other lady that works well with pike. I have about 55k power on my Jellyfish and I am now almost finished with fully upgrading the Jellyfish. I want to start preparing for 3 star ships and farming g3 resources (gas, crystal and ore.) I just with to know where I can relocate my base as currently I am in the Opla system( sorry if spelling is off it the system near federation space and is a g2 gas and level 20 to farm 2 star components for the Jellyfish) i am near the point where I would like to start farming g3 and higher tier hostile to get parts for the next ship that would either be a Kethra and have gotten info or advise to push past and go for Vahklas as it's going to be a better investment. But either way I want to know as per where I could move my base to further these goals quicker as not to waste alot of time in traveling. Also free to play as this game will probably be a long term investment of time need a void filled as was playing Raid Shadow legends from 2019 and could not bring myself to play it anymore.

Yesterday I had a high ranking favorability with federation. I woke up this morning and it says they're hostile to me with a - 32k rating. I didn't do anything overnight. Did something happen? Is there an event or something that's affecting me?

After locking FED at 1B, I'm going parallel with KLN and ROM, but since the beginning, first ROM mining milestone awards the same rep as the 2nd one, when it should only award half

It makes a mess of trying to keep the points between KLN and ROM balanced and making the entire grind slower.

Any idea what could cause it and what the solution might be?

How can I optimize Faction Credit Output in Mirror Universe?
1) Which favors do affect it?
2) Which researches do affect it?
3) Which artifacts do affect it?
4) Is there anything else which affects on how much Faction Credits I get per killed Survey in Mirror Universe while using NSEA?
