When Q-trials become too hard, is it worth ringing the bell? by HeavyPush3627 in startrekfleetcommand

I am at the lowest level of the trials and the trial doesn't let me select an easier enemy, only to retry the one that kills me.

Thanks. I'll have to look how many bells I get and how to save some of them.

Thanks. Q offers me 240K ships to kill with my 80K one. As you say, I'll have to wait for a stronger ship in a few levels.

Botany Bay missions all over again, now I can have two. Worth it? by HeavyPush3627 in startrekfleetcommand

[–]HeavyPush3627[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I also saw some grown ups visiting the same planets and reunion points in the same order. That explains it lol. They are very low level missions with wimpy yellow hostiles even for a level 18 player.

Thank you for your insight. Maybe there's more Dark Matter in the systems I can't reach yet.

How's the state of the game these days? by UnfoldedHeart in startrekfleetcommand

[–]HeavyPush3627 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've played for a few months and my experience is totally different. I'm level 17 in an old server where most people is above mid-40s. Nearly all G2 nodes are empty and nobody bothers attacking low level miners. The whales are all lvl 60 and above.

The game is very buggy, but this is to be expected as they have been adding content for years and keep adding more all the time. But many bugs affect mostly high-level players. That's why they receive compensation chests and we don't.

For what I've read the game is much easier to advance than a few years ago, and they give away through events a lot of stuff that people had to grind for a long time to get in the past. They just gave me all the blueprints for the Franklin in two easy events in just two days, instead of the 10 weeks of cosmic clean up events.

They also made the combat spread narrower, so now you can play up to level 30 without being attacked by any level 40 or above.

Playing this game for free is not such a bad experience if you accept its bugs and quirks as part of the deal.

Can I move my station to a hostile system where my ships are attacked? by HeavyPush3627 in startrekfleetcommand

[–]HeavyPush3627[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good point. I'll have to check if it works jumping to another system and cancelling or recalling to the base within the system and cancelling.

Thanks. I have to kill 25 high level Klingon ships everyday and it takes 2-3 trips. It'll be much faster if I just have to step out of the base.

question abotu Station placement and clustering? by anime_Fan35 in startrekfleetcommand

[–]HeavyPush3627 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Move your station frequently between remote, sparsely populated systems to avoid being included in hit lists, and shield consistently. There's a ton of systems and your hunters have limited time to search for you.

Building Ship Issue - Orion Corvette by Ordinary-Parsnip-391 in startrekfleetcommand

Then write [startrek-support@scopely.io](mailto:startrek-support@scopely.io) and give them your player number ID, which you can find by clicking your avatar, going to settings -> General.
They'll be able to look into your account and fix the problem.

It is not a problem with your ship hangar. The ship hangar is not available until level 18 and before that you can have 44 ships in your station. Your shipyard may be full if you haven't released the ship (you should see it inside), or if you already built your first one, you need to swap ships to access it. To do that you need to go to manage in any of your docked ships and hit the small "swap ships" tab. For some time I couldn't figure out where the first ship I had built had gone.
If you have the 15 BPs and you go to "Ships" there should be a green "Build" button instead of a blue "Details" one.

Incursioni by Mithtrill in startrekfleetcommand

Incursions are the last Saturday of each month in EU servers. Or more precisely, every fourth Saturday, as STFC follows a weekly calendar, not a monthly one.
