Its nice to see drones get some love. Now if only we could get a repair specialist for drones and make them actually much more useable, their repair times are way too high considering their level of power (save the p drones)
More sensless over the top power surges. Give it a rest you money grubbers. Do you not care about anything but money? It is a game for gosh sakes. Something for customers to enjoy, not something to be bled with. Time to for pirates to rebel.
I'm kind of bummed that the triton and sea scorpion are not being retro'ed, but oh well. My question is for the FAT, How long will we have to build the fleet? And, Will it still have to be repaired in the normal ways?
Sorry but these questions have to be asked, as i don't trust kixeye with assumptions
Kixeye hasn’t done as much to annoy its users as other game companies have. It doesn’t sell decorations for games and try to milk gamers for all they’re worth, and it doesn’t sell advanced weaponry that will allow rich gamers to wipe out poor gamers. But it does allow users to accelerate time in the game. Rather than wait for something to be developed, a user can pay to accelerate the build time for units.
Hmmmmm....no update on when new FM system will be implemented. Tokens in FM should be awarded as U, not as backup prize. 3 days build tokens per month are not helping reducing ship build times. Tokens TLC should be twice a month if you cant think of other ways to implement tokens.
Is it just me or was this WIP very bland and just contains the Same stuff we have been getting each month now? Nothing to address most of the issues we have.
Were is the issues of repair and build time? Were is word on improvements to token offerings? Were is the word on FM changes? Nothing on a possible new faction (was told would be may jun and nothing not even a hint of any yet) No new ship retro's for dozens of hulls that are extremely old and need help.
But on the up side thanks for saving me 2 months of ship building for an arena fleet.
Also "Firebat drones" makes it sound like we are getting reaver drones.
They have little Throwers on them!
I like the idea of the flamethrower drones...but can we see some originality in these newer releases. Between the Aegis (Star Destroyer design queues...) in the FAT and now the Firebat (name...) in the FM, these both pull heavily from designs or names in other sci-fi universes. I know some similarities should be expected, but it seems like the dev team has been watchin too much star wars and playin too much starcraft lately.

It's still being worked on so this info is sparse at best. But the idea is that the first fleet construction will be free and refits will be free if the ship is at full health. This fleet won't take up room in your Dock and, likewise, no fleets from your Dock can be used in the tourney. So it'd be a purely Arena-only fleet.

Doom. Why hasn't the v2c been slapped into the repair specialist yet or the frostburn? Seriously!?! It was voted third when we had a "choice". Mind you it's been well over a MONTH since the last weak set was released and this sparingly populated dump is uggghhhhhh

Repair times and build times are being addressed with tokens and with some lowering of initial build times, as we've seen with recent prizes. It's a small step, but a step.
We've added tokens to the FMs as alternate prizes and to the FAT. They will most likely be added to the upcoming event as well (read as very likely). As far as increasing capacity? That probably won't happen for a while (if ever), so be sure to use your tokens when you have them in order to get more!
FM changes are still in the works. I think we're aiming for July. We're going to see how reducing the total amount of new FM content to 2 per release and changing the cycle to after events and see if this helps players get caught up. Once we know how these changes have affect the FMs, we can move forward.
Re: new faction... Le sigh.... No news as of yet. There was plans for a new faction in May but this got delayed as we got busy implementing new features instead. As it stands, there may be a new faction sometime later this year.
re: Ship retros. Yep, and we'll get to them eventually.
Glad to hear you like the idea of the new FAT format!

why I feel like next FAT I will scrap my base and ships and go to play another game? every time you are excited, everything is going wrong in this game.

Thanks for the reply :-)
It does get hard to see a light at the end of the tunnel when you hear about something that really peaks your interest to then hear nothing for a few months.
hmm tokens have been introduced as a fall back prize ....after u just added 4 new prizes, 2 of which will be in t4 plus any other old prize u bring back from the dead ..why dont u just make tokens a prize like the uranium in weekly ?? coz each month atleast 2 new prizes and an old prize are added to the fm
i think for ship tokens need to be more than a day i think say like a week token or 3 to 5 days as there so many days to build a hull tokens that are lesser than 1 day are really not to bother winning atall
CM Doomrooster.. Can we get an idea 2-3 weeks before you start coding , how new FAT is going to work .. It's very hard to make changes last minute as you sad yourself and better yet tell us about new changes during the start of the tournament. Please learn from your mistakes not repeat them.
Yes i know .. it's 2-3 weeks of ****,that can start now .. but look at the brights sight .. you can't be blamed for not telling us ahead of time. And you may find some of us have great test cases you can use during testing.
Another Reaver raid Sick of fighting reavers. The amount of ships you need for them is stupid. And can't get prizes without coining so no new prizes for me.
Don't use Level. Use Tech when describing players. Level means nothing, its all about tech.
Re: new faction... Le sigh.... No news as of yet. There was plans for a new faction in May but this got delayed as we got busy implementing new features instead. As it stands, there may be a new faction sometime later this year.
Now wait a minute here. All of May you kept saying the new faction was not planned for May. Even tho so many of us read it on this forum at one time it was. Now you are actually admitting that it was planned for a May release.. Please tell me I'm not the only one reading this and wondering how Doom expects us to believe anything he says.

Very nice update on FAT and base relocation.
Were is the issues of repair and build time?
Were is word on improvements to token offerings?
Were is the word on FM changes?

Why did I waste my valuable shipyard time on an arena fleet?
Can we have a toybox base competition next? How about a toybox raid?

sure could use some information on when the slower , extended , even longer repair issue will be fixed as well !
well , it worked at first , then when relog it was back to the time before the token use ... fix this crap please !!!
