- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- We're back @everyone with another ship breakdown as we go over the USS Titan-A in STFC. Released this month as part of Legacy Pt. 2 it's the first ship to utilize an AOE (area of effect) ability which makes a unique addition to any player's arsenal. But, is it any good? Let's discuss in this early first look at the latest explorer to enter the fray!
Topics covered:
1. Tier up costs of the USS Titan-A
2. Weaknesses of the ship (weapons) and it's strength (ability)
3. Benefits of the USS Titan-A's F2P path
4. If you have any game mechanic questions, feel free to drop those questions in the comments!

Wanna buy Deuce something? Here's the Amazon wish list!:

They could have added this ability to the Cerritos. Simple.
I do agree the Titan-A could have done something else. I still want the Titan-A in game, though. More ships is a good thing (IMO) not a bad thing.
@@RevDeuce i want a real Independent Faction, and Independent ships up to and beyond lvl 60.
@@CCFONESOL or at least ships from any other faction or race, like Klingons, Andorians, Xindi, Vulcan, etc.
There is a klingon faction already
Or add a titan a skin to Cerritos with these abilities. The whole research stuff with the costly ship - I find it meh. Next month we’ll get another debuff ship? Bleh.
I'm disappointed that such a beautiful model is wasted on a support ship. Would have been better, perhaps to have had the Reliant for this purpose (during a Wrath of Khan Arc? We can only hope).
But your point about "need more docks" is pretty serious. The purchase price for the extra docks either needs to come down (way, way too expensive for me as a low spender), or there need to be a new free-to-play path to build one or more of them.
Thanks for the insights - very helpful. I can see why I need to start the drip feed now.
I have the same issue that's discussed at 7:51 with the Defiant. I don't even get one use a day from that, it takes a couple days to get enough for a single Defiant buff. The amount you get from cerritos is a lot more reasonable and promotes use
There actually is a real free to play path to the cerritos, it takes 3 1/2 months but it better than this
@@oleonard7319 WAIT are u american? 3,5 x 30days = +- 100 days. How can it be better them 100 days on Titan?
I'm a lvl 43 3 year f2p vet. My defiant is amazing, with its generous warp range I use it for grinding those pesky upper 40s hostiles, missions and of course jem hadar solo armadas. Will get titan a free tomorrow, hence watching your vid, rev
Still need the Defiant before I ever get to dreaming of Titans, lol
What up Rev! This is BigEarl1948, Brotha I’m loving your channel, learning a lot about Star Trek Fleet Command! It was you who inspired me to play and I’m glad I do now! 🎉
sounds like a cerritos with more steps....
Eek Barba Durkle!!!
We don't need more docks. We just should be able to apply multiple ships per dock that we already have 🤷♂️.
A thought on that: 1 warship, 1 miner, 1 support ship per dock
SgtEppy here. 4 minutes once a day OR 12 minutes every few days means the ship lays in mothballs for 23 hours 56 minutes a day. Is that a $100 value? I am Ops 55 so FOR ME, it was a waste. I hope they make changes otherwise it will sit next to the Cerritos and only come out on Wednesdays (or daily for the drip I guess).
This is why I will not buy it.
Remember the overhaul we had a few years ago with our combat ships? Its time to do it again with support ships.
Thanks for the great advice! Looking forward to the f2p grind
I'd think of unlocking it if it did something like the Discovery or Mantis which give you free to play path to officers but only a few members in your alliance really need this
It fixes the bottleneck you'll have with fleet commanders, as f2p
Which is something which never should have existed in the first place. SP sourcing was just bad game design
Oh yeah I did pay half mantis to get free half mantis at end arc. I got almost half a year officer pulls and syndicate over full F2P officer. As F2P im pround to had spend 50 on that ship.
My only complaint about the Titan is that it's combat abilities suck. Boost the attack power and you have a much more viable "command ship," something that can drop into a combat zone and fire off it's ability and can reasonably fight off any enemy ship that is in range of it. Don't make it crazy powerful, maybe as powerful as the ISS Jelly.
It's not a combat vessel it's stated in dialogue in the show... its an exploratory vessel its not a combat ship
Just pulled my FIRST titanA BP... had no idea it was available F2P. Thanks, Rev!
Didn't even mention the Mantis. So now with my meager 5 docks, if I'm doing a TC, I've got my Sarco, Mantis, Cerritos, Titan eventually and one fighting ship or runner? Disco in the mix? Too many things to think about in the chaos of TC. During a TC I like to focus on my Sarco and running. That's it. I don't see the value in the Titan but DAMMIT does it look sexy.
Ty for the Video Rev Deuce! LLAP!
I like it and will get it when I get it. How I see it is for the veteran players the admiral the commodores. most players will get it it's free. And by it taking so long to get means you will better appreciate it. It's no doubt going to help me kill mission bosses and hostile captain.
Too much of a money ship all costs need to be drastically improved to make it worthwhile
This game has gotten so bad over the last couple years. As someone approaching Ops 56, I can honestly say the cost to grow has outpaced the usefulness & value of their content. I can only hope SAVVY cleans house & makes worthwhile changes.
Agreed, they're creating new problems, not fixing old problems, and putting out content such as the last few ships I've really got no interest in. Make the core of the game more playable instead of only trying to extract as much money as possible from us.
I got it all wrong when Riker said he was on the "toughest, fastest, most powerful ship" Starfleet has ever put into service.. and wondered where that was with the Scopely Titan-A. Well, Riker was on the USS Zheng he, not the Titan. Still, STFC's Titan-A is NO WHERE near the wow factor Titan was praised about in Lower Decks either. Good ole Scopely!
So currently you can have a maximum of 8 Docking Bays. 6 for free and 2 you pay for. I think it's about time that they allow multiple ships on 1 Docking Bay. Graphically they can fit 3 altogether. So there should be a high level research to add additional space to Docking Bays once you have all 6. The two pay Bays can have extra spaces added for a cost since that's the way things work, I don't like it but that's Scopely's deal and it will keep the Whales happy.
Is the titan worth waiting 100 days ?? Does it out weigh the benefit of the Borg research tree which uses the same currency ??
Yes, that's what I've been wondering. The ex-Borg researches are MASSIVELY useful, and use the same currency. Is that a good idea to lose 12,000 of those credits that could go to those researches?
the daily needs to count ships buffed per 3k points and not per use, then both dailies are do-able every day.
Know what would have helped, if it was combat worthy like the Defiant. Then perhaps it could be one of the 3 ships in the armada itself.
Maybe, but like the defiant it can’t buff itself.
They tested the "once a day" buff with the Defiant...should have complained then. Yes, the Defiant does do more, but it is really a one to two times a day buff based on the amplifier drip.
Like my Defiant, I'm so glad I didn't buy it with money. An ability that I can use once on an armada every two days. are you fuckin kidding me?
I'm on 94 bps on the F2P path. I'm glad I waited as there is just so much grind I can't keep up. Equally I don't mind that it will take years to max out. The amount of new stuff they throw at us I long ago decided I would be a Tortoise not a Hare. So I'll be pleased to get it but not excited.
It is my opinion that they should have just made us a refit for the cerritos
@revDuece Scopely forgot to add the cloak to it. It gets a cloak re-fit in episode 7 of the show.
Can't add rss during the free to play path. If you don't have the Titan those options are not available in the support tab.
Uuhhh, im not seeing where I can refine anything without having unlocked the ship first
Will get it in 6 months or so. It’s ok. But there’s alot more to invest ship wise
Appreciate the video Rev and Scopley's wise decision to make this ship a 100-day free-to-obtain ship. I will say that this ship is mostly "MEH" as its abilities aren't frequently useable as Rev mentioned. This arc (3 days in) feels mostly MEH, especially concerning how epic Picard the show is attempting to sign off in its last season. Wish the game covering current Star Trek content aligned more closely.
Well said!
I love the ships look and how much it can do!
Need more docks will cost $$$$$$ lol i got 7 out of current max 8 i need more docks... lol
11more lvls then im 40 command center >.< im going to fast?
Another ship that usefulness is tide to others research. I will build it, will I use it? Will be like the Cerritos, will sit un used for months.
I only use them for armadas. Which means, not much lol
I just got this ship. Late, partly because of Eco's non working pips, and to my health. But the ship is a turd, and a waist of time. Avoid this ship if you can.
how do you get the beryllium? I just got the ship today from incusion BPs
i thought i had seen somewhere that the ability will not work during a territory battle.
so what is titan's patch?
👍🏻
Cool a support ship supports how does it work dunno if I even give a eff to spend 100 days to get it
I actually paid for the defiant because it was a very iconic ship. Season 3 of picard feels like season 8 of tng. Which is great to me. With that in mind, . The titan a is cool but not that iconic that I would pay 100 dollars for it.
I'll give them 96 more days to figure out their mess ups before I get it 😂
My problem with it is the fact that your ships have to already be in the same system at activation or the titan has to be the last ship to warp in if fortification is activated already.
Learned that the hard way
Of course it has to be in the same system
Why would you expect it to work on ships that aren't in the system?
@@slagdaricus I don’t. But if my ship dies and I bring it back why wouldn’t it be fortified? The ability says fortifies all ships in the system. Also if I send the titan to another system and back it resets and suddenly the resurrected ship is fortified again.
Renaming this ship as Enterprise G has been an huge mistake. The Titan has a legacy registration by itself as Titan A. So as the Titan earned its legacy registration, the Enterprise earned its own new ship wich is state of the art and worth to be called the federation Flagship. So it never should has been renamed!
Is the Titan still relevant?
Al calculations are based on what u get daily I belive. This Battlepass has 51 and 102 extra QC with is around 7 days (with CC 25+-). If u folow until 29 dez its sure u will find more free ones with might take u to 40 before Xmas. On other hand Titan has near to no value to people with one FC and 25+- center. Its a whale ship for whale players that wanted a way to get rare SP. The only value for people low Comand Center and only one FC officer is if they stream STFC and need this ship cause it has an amazing value as new content for some of your audience that donates to you (im not talking bad of Deuce I'm just point facts).
The Titan Should be a combat ship. It should be able to stand on its own and be good for PVE and PVP. It wasn't made to be in the background.
I'm so disappointed in this ship. The show has been epic so far but this is just a let down. The ship is weak. Being less powerful than a defiant doesn't narratively make sense but scopley has history here in ignoring this. The research is not good. Yes the numbers do look impressive at higher levels but by the time you reach that point, you have so much other research doing the same things you get diminished returns. Power creep has killed this ship before it even launched! And it all come back to the devs not understanding their own game
Devs aren't in charge of those decisions those are the content directors and so forth the devs just make what their told to work I am a game developer devs don't make the content we just make the functionality work
So my shipyard is at level 38 and I unlocked the ex Borg faction at “tolerated” yet I don’t see the Titan A Blueprints. Anyone else having this?
Anyone???
And it's now been renamed the Enterprise-G...
Cerritos or Titan? Titan looks better.
That hat is DOPE!!
Titan Aaaaaaaa!!!!! Pprreeettttty Ssshhhhhiiiippp! (Me like Homer Simpson with a donut looking at this ship.😂😂😂)
I put no stock in buff ships and cloaking they don't allow you to use them effectively so that aspect scores a 0 their refinery payouts is the only reason to own one so no refinery payout no reason to persue
Titan A buff (baseline, no research) allowed me to destroy THREE 46 UC Borg Spheres… without buff i went splat on first go. I can only imagine how good it’s gonna get as i complete titan a research
ExoComp 3.0?
Where do I mine the Beryllium???
I bought it because of how it looks! HaHa on me.
I really want the Talios ! I did not buy it and now I can’t find anyway to get it.
Any suggestions would be appreciated .😊
rare skill points? I need it approximetly in 2040.
At least it isn't a miner
They're creating new problems, not fixing old problems, and putting out content such as the last few ships I've really got no interest in. Make the core of the game more playable instead of only trying to extract as much money as possible from us.
I regret getting it
I think it's ugly. I liked the sleek 1701E😊
Not worth it... Shilled.
How the hell is it "shilled" when most of the video is explaining how it doesn't have extreme value lmao.
@@RevDeuce Yes, you shilled the not worth it! :)
@@RevDeuce He trolling look at his name. Ignore this type of comment.
Even if the Titan didn’t do anything special I’d still get it just because it’s the Titan hello
If they wanted to make money they should of made it a refit, the leader boards aren't even filled out on my server. Its not wise to keep pumping out the same ship over and over.
wait 100 day is the way to go. why pay 100 for something that is supposed to be free and no grinding needed. that is how they get you.
Trash. No value for the titan-a. Ops 46 and ftp. Will skip. The ex-borg research is more important.
1st
so only a few people in your alliance need this ship no real point in the whole alliance wasting their time building it
This is a completely useless add to the game. Please do better.
100 days to get the ship is a fking joke..by the time I get I will no longer remember what it's even good for...
