DJz took the weekend off so bubba jo took center stage and hosted a great tutorial on time management within the game. Holy Smokes at the number of things there are to do, so what are some tips and tricks on staying efficient, and not burning out at a chore list 30 items long? Plus a hint, and PRIZES! All on today's show with host, Bubba Jo! Visit our website at www.talkingtrekstfc.com

Tonight DJz and Bubba found themselves yet again at odds over Duality Part 4. While much of the community agreed on the event store, and loot paid, events seemed somewhat controversial, from Ba'el's Meta, to the number of Armada Events. And DJ yet again found himself on the opposite side of the what seemed to be the majority opinion. However, Bubba Jo comes to the rescue, proving once again, that this show can be a platform FOR ALL, to feel heard, represented, and advocated for, no matter what side of an issue you are on. Talking Trek is here for ALL voices, not just one. What side of the issue do you take?

On today's show we begin our summary wrap up of the final chapter of Duality. But this episode is TIME SENSITIVE, because there are things live in the game right now that you'll wanna consider before they're gone in less than 48 hours! Recruiting, Officers, Loot, and so much more! Did Scopely finally get a finale RIGHT? In addition, WAS it "perfect?" Probably not.... Still, players are largely satisfied overall with rewards, but issues with bracketing, oversight, typos and clarification remain at the forefront. But certainly, there were some good things that happened this month. Let's discuss! And we thank you in advance for sharing with your team, subbing to our channels, and ENJOYING the show! Visit our website for MERCH at www.talkingtrekstfc.com!

Is this one of the best event stores ever? Where is the loot coming from? HOW MUCH is still coming? And how many events did we end up seeing? Plus, we finally get into our segment on defending yourself or a teammate from the clutches of Big Momma. Crews, Ships, Strategies, and more! Please share with your team, sub to our channels, and ENJOY the show! Visit us online at www.talkingtrekstfc.com!

Today was a rough one. We never got the plan for the show, so that's been pushed. The packers lost. Covid is running rampant, and my escape from real life isn't providing for me. So, this is one of those shows that you hear the other side of DJz. Great conversations happened, but it's up to Bubba Jo and the community to show DJ why the game is worth playing this weekend. Plus, DRASTIC news is announced near the end, and a convo ensues. HOW can Scopely make it worth it? All this and more on arguably the worst production of the show in over a year. Sorry. Please MAYBE share with your team (if you're cool with them hearing a very subpar broadcast) sub to our channels (i promise it will be better in the future) and ENJOY (bear) the show. visit us online at www.talkingtrekstfc.com

On tonight's show, lots of silliness occurred, but some good math too. We take a good hard look at where we stand regarding event store loot, and what our predictions will be for total available loot for the f2p. We also look at ticketed event value, and see if it's actually there. what in the event store is worth your investment? Plus, we break down the slew of armada events and how to play the next couple of runs that are coming up. Near the end we even give you a blurb on the last run of the Borg interim event, and how it's changed! LOTS of great info in this episode, plus some super great silliness regarding the fact that DJz has no power, no heat, and is generally freezing his furry butt off. All this and more! This is a can't miss show folks! Please share with your team, sub to our channels, and ENJOY this show! Visit our website at www.talkingtrekstfc.com for more info and links!

Tonight on the show we introduce Duality Pt 4 officially for the first time in the studio. Predominantly, the topic of discussion is Big Momma. DJz LOVES IT. Bubba Joe is representing the players that find it gross. What are the arguments? What are the pros and cons? How can this ship be used OUTSIDE of just raiding? How else can it be used FOR raiding? Lots of good questions, points and counterpoints regarding the newest ship and we invite you to sound off on your perspectives! Plus we take a quick peek at the PVE loop for Big Momma, the Event Completionist Series, and the event trophies, and so much more. Visit us online at www.talkingtrekstfc.com for more links AND OUR NEWEST Downloadable Links Page where you can find our Calculator, AND coming soon, SchuperJesse's Calendar!

Official Q&A for Duality Pt 4, January 2022. We meet Big Momma, aka, The Amalgam and find out what she can do. We discuss the other officers, how they will impact Big Momma, and discuss a few other things related to the final chapter of this Arc. Lots of great questions! Maybe yours is asked and answered here! Visit our website for more info at www.talkingtrekstfc.com

The title is clear. DJz hints have been clear. Something is coming to the galaxy that will fundamentally change how resources are acquired. So, it's time to get back to basics. Teach a little something something to those players who have not raided in nearly 2 years, or those newer players to the game who have NEVER raided. Now, it's gonna matter. Plus get some hints in there somewhere.... or maybe..... the entire show is the hint...... Who knows. let's have some fun! Visit our website at www.talkingtrekstfc.com for more links!

The title says it all! Tonight we revisited everything that happened in December, and examined experiences across the ops ranges, and even compared to prior Duality months. There was a lot to be said, and grades may have been surprising to this furry feline! You don't wanna miss this for a chance at some tips and tricks sprinkled throughout along with some surprising info on how this arc ended up. Plus, hints towards the January Arc! All this and more on this fun filled show! Please share with your team, sub to our channels, and ENJOY the show! Visit our website at www.talkingtrekstfc.com for links to all our stuff!

Hey folks! we return from the long holiday break to catch up with players, and discuss the broadest game changes to the game over the past 12 months. Some things were very very good, and others, not so good. What were the better changes, or better actions taken by Scopely and what do we wanna see in 2022? Plus, we do in fact have a hint for you going into the January arc, and this one may in fact scare some folks.... We shall seeeeeeee Visit our website at www.talkingtrekstfc.com for links and Patron Info!

Tonight we spent more than a little time revisiting events that struggled in the first part of Duality, but have relaunched now with improved scoring and mechanics. But we uncover a STILL fundamental flaw in Scopelys New Player Experience, and we discuss ways to improve this. We also remind players of ways to ALWAYS be prepared for surprise ATA events and maybe even provide some hints on what COULD be coming in the upcoming Holiday Event Block. All this and more tonight!

For the fullest benefit, please visit our YouTube channel by linking over from www.talkingtrekstfc.com Tonight we decide to get together and blow some ultras for the SLB.

We've been preparing for this show for a couple of months now, and today was the day. Today was the day we introduced you to Talia, a 14 year old diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma. Talia's family was nominated to be our 'Angel Family' this year, to receive funding from Talking Trek to make sure that not only Talia, but her 3 little sisters got a Christmas, despite the family's struggles over the past year. We meet Daddy Beatle, who tells us all about the last year, and about the strength and resilience of his family.... and then, a weight is lifted when we reveal that Christmas is on us this year. We also may or may not have gotten an inside track with the big guy up at 1 North Pole Plaza and gotten a phone call to Talia and her sisters. This show is the purest demonstration of the good in people. I hope it fulfills you this holiday season, and motivates you to choose your own act of kindness towards someone in need this year. We wish you the HAPPIEST of Christmases everyone! Thank you for an AWE inspiring year! And we look forward to doing it again in 2022!

Tonight our focus is on the newest Away Teams Assignments Battlepass event. Of course, being brand new, this surprised many, and some of those players found themselves unable to work through the event within a 24 hour period, putting their battlepass and overflow events at risk. Tonight we break down the three events of the past week that missed the mark for some, give you the response from Live Ops regarding our feedback, and THEN, we break down some real work applications for ATA speedups. How do you get them? What is a 'healthy' bank? When should they be used? How can you 'bank' actual assignments for events like this? Tonight you get a full tutorial in ATA and the speedups needed to be successful. Please share this important teaching episode with your team, sub to the channels, and ENJOY the show! Visit our website at www.talkingtrekstfc.com

Tonight, absolutely the topic on everyone's mind was Turf Wars. Is this event designed poorly? Or is this event the best thing to ever hit TC? Players approached this topic from both sides with EXTREMELY intelligent conversation, wonderful perspectives, and amazing debate. DJz delivers a passionate opinion and goes back and forth with Bubba Jo before opening the stage ENTIRELY to the community. Your TRUE Server sound off? How did players actually feel? Hear their voices live. Also, later in the show, Ripper gives insight into the Ship Power loss bug, and what's going on with TC buffs, and towards the end of the show we lay out hints for the next 5 days worth of events. What are you competing for? What are you doing? What do you need to be ready for? This entire show is jam packed with goodness. So, do us a favor. Share with your teams, sub to our channels, and ENJOY the show! Visit us online at www.talkingtrekstfc.com

60 minutes with DJz to answer your questions, give you hints, and insights into the the latest arc launch update! LET'S GET IT ON!

YO TREKKERS! Thanks for another great show! We start out with a bit more recap on Arc 2 before moving into one of the larger pieces of feedback from the first two Duality Arcs, which was the large number of armada driven events in the game. Seems like we were asked to do more than we could possibly do without spending money. BUT is that actually true? Can the armada model actually be mathematically proven to work month after month? We think so, so let's drive in and do some balance between saving directives, AND guaranteeing your chests and rare directive acquisition as well. Also, please be sure to listen near the end for our initiative this holiday season and please send us your emails to nominate a family in need of a bit of Christmas Spirit this year. Email your nominations to [email protected] for the Talking Trek Team to help provide a little extra Christmas Cheer. Thank you all! Please share with your team, sub to our channels, and ENJOY the show! Our links are online at www.talkingtrekstfc.com

It's been exactly two weeks since we were in studio with you and we had no shortage of things to talk about. DJz makes a passionate plea to the community for giving this holiday season, not only to each other, but to your local children in need. And while we (DJz) apologizes for the lengthy philanthropy segment, we remind you that we are in fact a community, and sometimes, this community transcends our video game, and we encourage you to open your hearts this season. That said, we did dive in to Duality Pt 2 and provided some excellent review, AND some scathing feedback from some players regarding the newly widened "ops-chasm" that we're experiencing in the game now, and ways to try to fix it moving forward. Major points of conversation included the economy, milestones and points, cloaking, Sela and Tomalak, and Territory Capture (the one dull spot on an otherwise bright month.) Great conversations had by all! And a very fair and valid set of grades forthcoming! Please share with your team, leave your comments on YOUR grades, sub to our channels, and ENJOY the show! Visit our website at www.talkingtrekstfc.com for our email, and write us your letters for Talking Trek Gives Back! A family in need will receive $500 from Talking Trek to bring a small bit of joy to children this Christmas! Who will win this gift? It's up to you!

This episode was our first time back in a over a week and it was a GREAT laid back conversation with players about the events, rewards, and wrapup of Duality part 2. What would we like to see continue and what were the items MOST important to us as we prepare our final grades? Plus, Scopely shocks the community with a new limit to PVE Grinding. BUUUUUUUT, how many players does this really affect? And what are the facts surrounding the change? There's a lot of misinformation out there, and Talking Trek sets the record straight. What are the reasons behind this change? Reputation? Botting? Addiction? We explore some of these scenarios and discuss the technicalities of botting and WHY this change MAY have been the only reasonable solution, at this time. All this and more on today's AMAZING community driven episode of Talking Trek! Please share with your teams, sub to our channels, and ENJOY the show! Visit our website at www.talkingtrekstfc.com

What are you thankful for? Besides Bubba Joe hosting a show while DJz prepares pumpkin rolls, cheesecakes, and multiple boxes of stuffing that is... Let's take a few minutes to talk about a few things we're happy for, and maybe a few items on our Christmas Wish List! Visit us online at www.talkingtrekstfc.com

Tonight was about as nerdy as it gets, folks, so buckle up. Scopely missed ANOTHER opportunity to claim a player beneficial game bug was fixed this week, and instead left it to the community to find. This change marks 3 years that players have ASKED for the change, but no action was ever taken, and MECHANICALLY, and compared to other games, this change makes sense. BUT, from a game design perspective, Ripper believes this actually makes these features of the game, TOO overpowered. Plus as a refresher, we'll deep dive into WHAT these buffs do mathematically, and rank them in order of importance, not only from an officer perspective, but an ABILITY perspective as well. PLUS, Level 59 Bro Skacoren stops by and allows Talking Trek to get to know the human behind the "bro" a little bit, as well as drop some incredible high level hostile grind knowledge. Orrrrrr is it so high level? a few of HIS everyday grinding crews may just surprise you. All this and more on today's incredibly nerdy episode! Please share with your team, sub to our channels, and ENJOY the show! Visit us online at www.talkingtrekstfc.com for more!

On tonight's show we broke the news that Scopely HQ was making a change to the Sela power gained auction. How does this fare for players? Is this a good change? While domination auctions are great, and they are, it's dangerous to mess with a mechanic that includes OTHER metrics, and not only that, but again, for the second month in a row, a change is made that throws players off kilter less than 48 hours before an event. What are the ramifications for this auction? PLUS, Conquest actually seems like a huge hit, and paid out just STUPID amounts of rss and materials. How can you flip the script coming up this week? The mechanics are within and we invite you to share with your team, sub to our channels, and ENJOY the show! Visit us online at www.talkingtrekstfc.com! Don't forget to subscribe to YT and comment on our 5k mats video for your chance to win 500 materials coming up on Wednesday!

On tonight's show we start breaking down the event calendar and the 117 events Scopely has prepared for us today. There are some KEY strategic moments this month, with events that clearly have a direct path. How has Scopely responded to the sustainability complaints from October and prepared players to compete this month? Plus, we talk briefly about the new Prime Officers and IF it's really worth 99.99, OR if a BOGO is a better deal? And Scopely hides the most important improvement of the entire arc, Common Material / Lat conversion rates! All this and more, plus special guest Skacoren stops by to talk about his latest g5 ship and HIS opinion on the new Prime Officer pack. Please visit our website at www.talkingtrekstfc.com

Today we did our typical arclaunch Q&A based on the new arc with the new currency, new research, new cloaks, refits, and so much more! Get some answers to your questions here, plus hear about a new giveaway and your chance to WIN!

The nailbiter month of October has raised questions for MANY players throughout their 30's levels. The new question, WHERE to camp and hoard, vs where to spend? This conversation dominated today as we spent some dissecting the 20's, and 30's, for ideal camping zones. Plus we discuss downtime between the arcs, and recap all of the hints we've provided so far, PLUS provide 2 new ones! And DJ gags over spiders. All this and more on today's fun filled adventure with Talking Trek! Visit our website at www.talkingtrekstfc.com!

Happy Halloween! Always fun to be with you on air for a holiday! Tonight we briefly wrapped up on Trek or Treat, and discussed the snafu with the Ghost Hunter event regarding tetryons and feasibility. We quickly transitioned into Borg, and while LOTS of players find this an unpopular opinion, DJz actually found this event better than August's version. More importantly, 4 changes were identified that Scopely ACTUALLY modified, and most players didn't notice. We break down the roadmap again for players who missed the August episode, give you the ideal crews to use depending on the capabilities of your vidar, and talk about the future implications of the megacube events. Plus there was definitely some halloween talk, and DJz eats too many butterfingers, and may or may not have vomited live on the air. No, we didn't cut that out. Please share the show with your team IN TIME FOR Monday's Armada event, sub to our channels, and most of all, ENJOY the show! Please visit our website at www.talkingtrekstfc.com

Tonight we tried to tackle too much. and time just didn't allow for all of it. But we did our best to give you the best overview we could of Trek or Treat, what will be required of the remaining events, and what we can expect to see for the rest of this week. IMPORTANT INFO for day 5 of the events contained within the first 30 minutes! PLUS we take a hard look at some of the biggest features of the month, including G5 introductions, officer sourcing mechanics, and cloaking! What was good? What was bad? and WHAT was the final grade issued for Duality? Please share with your team, sub to our channels, and most of all, ENJOY the show!!

Tonight, DJz is wrapping up a week of traveling and decides to join the community from the road. We discuss the Duality wrap up and what went well this month, which was nearly everything! We discuss the modifications to G5 space, and the latest change on Ultra Recruits and Transporter Patterns. Then when everyone is feeling giddy from all the celebration (and wine) then we get real. How can Scopely POSSIBLY hope to repeat this in the future? What can they do to ensure success? How can players be involved month after month with this new auction replacement mechanic, and does further testing need to happen? Listen in on this great back and forth conversation on Duality! Please share with your teams, sub to our channels, and ENJOY the show! Visit www.talkingtrekstfc.com for more info, AND MERCH! Buy your merch today!

DJz is traveling, so Bubba and Bg decided to run the show. Tonight they discuss some of the changes that have happened in the game recently and what they mean for the longer mechanics that need attention, such as officer sourcing and current arc earning of newer officers. Plus they open the floor for your questions and feedback, directly to the dev's in this round table episode of Talking Trek, with Bubba and Bg! Visit our website at www.talkingtrekstfc.com

Feedback regarding week 1's version of Heart of Stonn was heard by Scopely. But was the reiteration worse? Tonight we dive into the changes, the thought process BEHIND those changes, and what it means for the community moving into the future. We talk about hoarding mechanics, and how much it should OR should NOT affect your progression. Finally, we REEXAMINE our path to 4 of 10, and WHAT it will mean for players if they CANNOT finish their ultra recruit event this weekend. Is there still a path? Maybe so! All this and more on tonight's show! Please sub to our channels, share with your team, and ENJOY the show! Visit our website at www.talkingtrekstfc.com!

There were some clear break points in satisfaction with these SMS. For example, MOST players Ops 39 and down are THRILLED with the opportunity at a full unlock WITHOUT having to dump millions of points into an auction where they could be sniped at the last second. Players in the upper 40's view it as a sign of relief, almost a "discount" of sorts, because their auction prices would go significantly higher than Scopely is asking them to pay. However, players in the low to mid 40's, are feeling the pressure as common material walls, and the NEW adjustment for them from G3 to G4 is still in the early stages. Facts are, players control their own destiny. An officer has a clear and defined objective price to unlock. And unlike an auction, you know where your spend gets you. Despite early rabble about high milestones, upon calm reflection, perhaps this isn't all bad? DJz sits back and let's the community duke this one out as we turn to each corner, and find F2P wildly in favor of this mechanic, and light spenders feeling the impossible. This is a great listen and some great insight into what other players face on a monthly basis with upgrades and materials spend. Please share with your team, sub to our channes, and most importantly, ENJOY the listen! Visit our website at www.talkingtrekstfc.com

Tonight on the show, we break down what we NOW know about the path to Worf. It's not quite as easy as we had hoped it would be, but there's still a path. Enough bonus shards have also been given for you to be able to potentially SKIP a milestone in a future event, especially if the material spend was high enough to give some players fits. Value wise, does the event make sense? Plus, WHAT IS OFFICER POWER? An event was modified over the weekend due to a technical glitch, but even then, players misunderstood the actual mechanic of officer power. We will break that down for you and give you some math on WHY XP was the least effective form of scoring in this weekends power events. All this and much more! Please share with your team, sub to our channels, and ENJOY the show! Visit our website at talkingtrekstfc.com for more info!

Today was the most excited some players have been in over a year. The introduction of G5 finally arrived and despite most players not getting there for a very long time if ever, it was exciting to see what's over the horizon. Plus, the arc itself launched with so much positivity, it was a joyous day. From officer sourcing, to photon tokens, to simplicity with events, players are feeling very happy with this new season. Let's break it all down and hear from the players! Please share with your team, subscribe to our channels, and ENJOY the listen! Visit our website for more information at www.talkingtrekstfc.com!

What a great show we had this morning, and gosh, one of the most promising starts to an arc in STFC history! No time to write it all out! YOU JUST GOTTA LISTEN! Thanks to our guests this morning, and our audio engineer, Stevens Aaron for taking care of the studio taping! YA'LL ROCK! Visit our website www.talkingtrekstfc.com for more info!

Tonight we started out by discussing all the varied reaction to DJz and company on the final grades for Arc 5. We quickly transitioned into the roadmap and started playing the what if game! A look back at previous roadmaps was done just to make sure we're not missing anything plus, HINTS were given for the upcoming October Arc. This was a fun show, as it always is when we can start imagining the future and what hope it can bring us! Please share with your team, sub to our channels, and as always ENJOY the show! Visit us online at talkingtrekstfc.com

Karkun said it best when he said that the EXPECTATION of this arc was huge, and we may have felt that the community was going to negatively respond to our calls for a final grade. However, what we discovered was that there were two CLEAR sides of this arc, and some players responded very positively, while others were totally 100% disappointed. The pros and cons were discussed and DJz and crew find themselves ALSO split into two sides as final grades are doled out. This is a wild and emotional and passionate listen, and we invite you along for the ride! Please share with your teams, subscribe to our channels, and most importantly, ENJOY the show! Please visit our website at www.talkingtrekstfc.com!

Today was the final day of the 5th month of TNG. And all the feedback, criticism, regrets, and next-to-dos came pouring onto our stage. This was a great show that really was quite diverse in its topics including, what could Scopely have done differently with TNG related content? How much loot did we get for a 5 month event store? What should you be doing with your loot? How hard was it to earn within leaderboards? And what are Multiphasic Credits? And why do they exist? It was an action packed 3 hours and were excited to have you on board with us to listen! Please share with your team, sub to our channels, and ENJOY the show! Visit us online at www.talkingtrekstfc.online

There's something wrong with them. Tonight we break down for you a SUPER WIDE variety of topics including in game equivalents to Troi, why Wesley Crusher feels like hes not getting you any results, WHERE WERE MY TICKETS FOR OEP!? and the love we all have for 96 hour mining SLB. Can't even begin to tell you all the items we touched on here. This show was a wild ride, and it starts with a salute to a special segment of our community. I see you... Visit ourwebsite at talkingtrekstfc.com for more info

Most people can agree. Scopely design team got this one right. ATA 2.0 is beautifully designed and stimulates strategy and thought when considering how to play this new PASSIVE feature, without requiring loads of extra screentime. HOWEVER, has Scopely's monetization team/accountants gotten in the way AGAIN of a beautiful feature? Trait XP seems to be trickling in, even though it takes MILLIONS to maximize your opportunity, and AT LEAST hundreds of thousands if you focused in on one or two assignments. ALSO on today's show, TheLooter comes by to discuss the BRAND NEW Kelvin Memorial Archive tools that are now live and how they work to the benefit of the community. PLUS we discuss Troi, and other officer opportunities in the Event Store and what you should be considering when purchasing with your event store loot. Please share with your team, sub to our channels, and ENJOY the listen! Visit us online for links to YT, our support program, and our merch store! www.talkingtrekstfc.com

DJz is out of town this weekend, but the show must go on! Bubba Joe and company keep Talking Trek on the air this Sunday evening as we discuss loot, event store purchases, and away team assignments.

Ok community, so this podcast was an intro to Arc 5. So we did discuss a few arc related things in the beginning. A brief look at all the things that changed in this arc was discussed and reviewed. THEN we got in the beef. Trait XP and HOW to use it to your benefit. What is the strategy? Is there Strategy at all? Oh my, yes. This may be the most cerebral feature Scopely has ever released. And we've solved the puzzle for you folks. LISTEN to this one carefully, share with your team, and please sub to our channels. Thank you for being here! Visit our website for links to our discord for some charts, graphics, and tools dedicated to Traits. Some items discussed in this show will point you to our discord for screenshots.

Congratulations. ConGRATUUUUUUU-LATIONS Scopely, on your fastest EVER hotpatch deployment. Almost like it was ready to go... Almost like you KNEW this was a bad idea, but mehhhhh, DO IT ANYWAY! An angry group of rioters discuss Chen this morning, then we move on to Traits, which shoulda been fun to talk about, but ya know, ruined days tend to occur when you do one thing so horribly wrong that it overshadows all the good you tried to do. We did get into Traits, how to use em. Their math and the officers that have at least one of the 57 characteristics in the game that will boost your ATA Crit chance as high as 100%. Sound too good to be true? Well, it's not, BUTTT, it will be a challenge to get it there. Let's talk about that, AND the new borg mining queen, three of ten. All this and more. Get your megaphones ready, this one is ranty. Please visit us on ourwebsite at talkingtrekstfc.com

Tonight was a dreamers episode. Our hints have pointed towards Scopely revisiting a previous feature to improve it. What could it be? TC dominated the conversation, but other features worked their way into the conversation including Borg and the Megacube, Exocomps, Stella, and even Ship Skins. What improvements can Scopely work into their game that are actually community driven? This is an episode all about imagination to improve our game in ways we want to see it. This is actually a fascinating listen with feedback points from a wide variety of ops levels, and we invite you, AND scopely, to take a good hard listen. Provide your feedback within our discord; link available at www.talkingtrekstfc.com! Thanks for sharing, thanks for subscribing, and ENJOY the show!

In today's highly anticipated arc finale, we discuss our final grades and offer insights into what we all saw and felt during the arc. Rewards? Exocomps? F2P progression? Events? Nothing is off the table as we discuss perspectives from 30 to 50 and all points in between regarding TNG Arc 4. What was your final grade? See how it stacks up with the rest of our panelists as we issue Scopely their final marks on the latest month of TNG content.

Commanders! Welcome to the show! Today, we throw away ALL formats, abandon ALL fluff, and dive straight into urgent business at hand. Borg. Why did the community hate it? Did it deserve it? Why does Scopely continually mishandle one of ST's most prominent features? And CAN it be improved? Tonight's debate pulled the curtain back on the true mechanics, the true intents, and how YOU can avoid the confusion for the next run. Please sub to our channels, share with your teams, and enjoy the listen! Please visit our website at www.ultimatdjzplayz.com for more info!

Today, we pushed the grading of our arc til Sunday, but decided to dive into a newer player's experience within the game today. Have questions? This was the show for you! We discuss new players in their teens and 20's and how things like Cosmic Cleanup, Exocomps, and Meridian are vastly more valuable to these players, and why some players are really digging the new mechanics of the game. Plus, hint towards upcoming content, stupid news, and a LITTLE bit of Podtalk in the new G4 ship bps pack. What's the intent there? We dive into all of it here! Enjoy the show, and please be sure to sub to our channels. Visit us online at www.UltimatDJzPlayz.com

Hey Commanders, tonight the show conversation continued with Techman16 of Trek Talk with Tech and Kirk (a GREAT podcast) that focuses specifically on drama of ROE conflicts across various servers. Techman started a conversation about Server 34 and DJz found correlations with Server 15. We dive into some of these reasons for war, and discuss how much leeway alliances should have in declaring war on others. Plus, when should it end? This was a fun convo and a peek behind the curtain of S15 and S34 as they compare in war. Please share with your teams, subscribe to our channels, and enjoy the after party!
