Say what now? THEY SHOT US IN THE DICK! But apparently Star Trek Enterprise is really good! 1:20:29 - Oh yeah, Picard is a thing! Season 2 apparently is awful. 1:25:31 - Let's trash on Star Wars and the Death Star some! 1:29:42 - Riker being horny as a security concern, and general Starfleet security failures. 1:32:25 - Join us to talk about the good stuff!

Hosts: StrangeKirk, Handy Guests: UltimateDJz (15), DragonKeeper (52), JimmJones, Trojan, Sloterer, SARRescueRanger, DonaldTrump (34), Stratalorian(9), MadamStarGazer (66) List of notable things: 0:00 - DJz interview starts, and he is aggravated about the game! 2:26 - Monetizing content is ok, for example the Dukat officer purchase model. 5:06 - Frustrations with the time now required from the game to stay on par (grinding). 15:56 - DJz thinks people would riot if Scopely didn't release new content one month. I think if Scopely said they were going to address a list of meaningful bugs we've all been complaining about, as well as address some gameplay improvements we've been clamoring for, not only would we not riot we would throw Scopely a fucking party! There are a lot of players that would like to put more money into their bases or ships as well, and never can because they're all but forced to invest in whatever the latest content is. A gap month would not cause Scopely any undue fiscal or "social contract" harm IF they were upfront about what they wanted to address and those things are items that players care about. /rant 18:40 - How about we look at long existing events and loot tables!!! 27:24 - Ty'Gokor is a bug, it was never meant to be the way it is. 29:31 - Scopely ignores too many things for too long. And speaking of, if Scopely encouraged us to not save up forever, we'd spend what we've held onto and probably buy more packs as well. And if there wasn't an Arc, instead put up older content items and let people buy those. Or to encourage spending boost station and ship packs with an extra 10% mats that month. People will buy, and you're not breaking the bank on that it's a small boost that will buy them the time to do game improvements that people will truly appreciate, while still making their money that they want to make. 36:30 - Simplify things by, for example, allowing the new content to satisfy faction dailies. You're destroying another faction! Consolidate these grinds, which doesn't really encourage spending anyways. 41:35 - Scopely needs to listen a little more to the people that are tied into the player base. 43:25 - Questions and Answers with DJz from the audience (listen up, there's some fun questions in here). And remember...spread the hate!
