Talking Trek: Star Trek Fleet Command

Welllllll it was completely unplanned when we set our date for the state of the game, but obviously incursions took front and center stage as we talked about that disaster yesterday. BUT we did quickly transition to the January arc and did highlight a few of the positives for players in the 'target landing zone,' but we were able to actually open up and have a convo about the theory or mindset of setting content at ops 35+. Is DJz wrong on this one? Hear Eco's explanation on game design of the last few months and see if you agree!

Tonight was a very heated hot and cold debate over the first month of 2023. From Fleet Commanders to Borg Spheres and the Meta to Hugh and Ghalenar, we broke down the ENTIRE arc inside this show. Final grades come Wednesday? Where do you fall? Smash or pass on Assimilation Pt 1?

Our headline feature today was made possible by math and testing from Julesvern regarding Epic Borg Hugh. While this auction is running it's your last opportunity at BULK shards of this officer, so why should you care? He's much more valuable than what may originally appear. A new khan? A new hull breach pairing? Lots of uses of this officer as we dive into what he does, and how he does it!

Live from Scopely's game design department, Mister Tiger returns to the stage of Talking Trek yet again to discuss his latest creation and some of the intent behind building this arc as compared to his last project, which was the Bajoran Faction. There are some VERY perception changing bits of info in here as related to officer sourcing, charged nanoprobes, exo comps and warp locks. This is a must listen if you're trying to find some light at the end of the tunnel during this January feature.

An extremely long segment on Borg crewing and alternative options dominate the first segment, forcing the show into OT but TONS of great information about HOW the BSA (Borg Solo Armadas) work and how they were written to leave you breadcrumb ideas about what is ideal to make them fall. Unless you're a G5 player, then.... ya know... show up and that's about it. 

Plus we discuss the massive disappointment in the differences with the XSLB this month and maybe some ways that that coulda been rolled out a little better. Plus Battleship, and MORE!

Today was a VERY mechanical show in which we went through the loop step by step, and described what EACH currency does, how it is obtained, and in what order you should look at this new feature. this is PRECISELY a mechanical "How It all Works." You can't miss this show and get exclusive new information from Scopely HQ on exactly how this loop works!

President Eco stopped by with an in depth explanation of Fleet Commanders, and first reactions to the other pieces of this arc including Borg officers, sourcing, and Borg Solo Armadas. Early feedback is discussed and POSSIBLE teasers to February also contained. This is a great listen and will provide warnings, and insight to the new features released this month.

so the first hour of this is mostly DJz being old and struggling to make google drive work. Sorry it's a painful listen, but the little bits about the battle log parser and what it can do and what it shows you is awesome. Then the second segment STARTED okay, but DJ got in his headspace... This was not his finest work, but here it is anyway. Plz hold the tomatoes for the end.

Today Talking Trek is in for a special treat today when Shawna Benson stops by the show to talk about the first season that just wrapped up on Nickelodeon and Paramount+. We examine the show from top to bottom, and the first episode through the last regarding the story, character development and the ideas and themes that are present all throughout the season. This interview was so fun and natural that we went over on time (shocking). But this is a great interview to listen to as we look forward to more fresh content inside STFC for 2023.

Tonight was like watching a train derail 3495 times in a row as that's about how many topics were discussed. But it was a fun show with a variety of things discussed and talked about, NOT just about the arc, but some good teaching bits in there as well. Then we finally get around to doing some grading, and OH OH Battleship is BACK! Listen for details on how to win!
