    Great video. Like all these one trick pony ships I'm not rushing to get it. It'll arrive eventually. And from everything I've seen the especially complex loop makes it even less of a priority. If I make the free 50 tokens to build it this BP I'll be happy. I just wished such an important ship in canon had been used better. Voyager deserved better.

      Not only that, but this type of info always comes out after the month is half over. Because the game mechanics are so opaque, require parsing descriptions, testing for accuracy, testing for effect, and use of a calculator, by the time you have a good idea what you’re buying, it’s usually over.

    I think you missed the biggest part of Voyager, its 5-5-9 firing pattern. It is not a PvP ship but it can be a great armada ship because O'Brien can double it's high number of shots fired. While it's base damage is low, if you're relying on someone like Tyler for damage (assuming someone brought Burning), you could easily end up to top damage dealer because you're hitting so many times.

    Thanks Rev! As always you are informative and bring some entertainment to the videos you post. As for my thoughts on the Voyager shop loop they follow.
    ---I bought Voyager in large part because it was not supposed to be level locked and on my server in the Jellyfish event there is only one winner (No runner up bps) to give me that grinder. I did think the way the first two sections of the loop were cool until I got to the mining one. I will say it is not because of the mining (The voyager especially with the first research mines the nodes wicked fast and I don't mind mining) It encompasses all the hated parts of the other grindy loops in the game.
    *There system is covered by fog of war so you can't tell how full it is before you use up the token which are super hard to come by
    *The cargo is so abysmal that you can't even get an initial pull based on the number of warp tokens you get unless you use a cargo crew
    *The nodes are too small, too few, and despawn with a respawn timer. This means you can spend all day and not get enough mining for a pull
    *Because the nodes are so small players bring 4* and 5* miners and even if we bring a PVP crew I could not take them with any ship I have at 39.
    *By the nodes despawing/respawing in a different place you have to watch for minutes hoping to see it come in before someone else gets to the node
    *The nodes seemingly switch at random from a uncommon to a rare mining node once emptied. This is made worse because they don't despawn to respawn until someone leaves the node. *If everyone was mining with Voyagers switching may not be as big a deal; however, because they are not, this means that even if you can get lucky enough to grab an empty node, you still may not come away with enough materials because of how fast the cargo fills up and there is no guarantee you will get the type (rare or uncommon) you need next.
    ---Now that I have been trying to do this since the first day I have some thoughts any of which might make it better, some of which may not be great idea. At this point it seems like someone tried to get two interesting first parts then see how much suck they could cram into the last part taking things people dislike from every other part of the game.
    *5-10 times the base cargo for the Voyager at level 0 with the same progression (This would reduce the likelihood people used faction miners/amalgams/etc that take 9+days on a rare node.
    *Remove Fog of War (If we could see the system was full we could choose to come back later instead of wasting a warp token or just leaving our ship there hoping nodes will be free when we come back later)
    *Increase node count
    *Increase node size (small nodes aka data are annoying)
    *Remove the spawing behavior (one of the biggest complaints I hear for armadas is waiting for respawns)
    *Remove the switching behavior (I don't even know what that is)
    *Remove the tokens (This would remove the need to use larger ships. I wish it were common sense that a
    *Make the tokens only usable by a Voyager
    *Significantly increase the rewards dropped by the hostiles so you can walk away with the same amount of look either by mining or by dropping hostiles (At least this gives players a different option)
    *Remove the level lock and make it dependent on the ability to get the mats (this would also help beef up the cargo through upgrades)(Level locks are at least my most hated part of new ships)
    *Returns on all the refinery should scale up over time (even linearly) Currently the store options that affect upgrades reduce over time. Efficiency should get better as you get more experience/equipment/etc not worse. If they did, we wouldn't have intention mega-companies. (AKA one of the biggest player complaints I hear about the Augment and Outlaw faction stores.)

    @kevinshumate93 Рік тому +4

    The upgrade cost for Voyager is...expensive...and there's virtually no benefit to doing so. Honestly I cannot understand Scopely's thinking. At T3 you need 3 packs to upgrade? Or you can choose the F2P path, but that is years from the pulls I see. If there's "more to come" then...ok, I guess? If I compare this to the Vidar-T I get whiplash from how different they are. Or even how different it is from the Titan. What really bugs me the most- if I take the Defiant and Voyager then we've been handed ships that have specific uses, but aren't used every day. It's so disappointing to see such revered ships be relegated to such a role. It should have been great. It isn't. Yes lots of people own a Voyager...but most will never tier it up beyond 2 or 3. The research is decent, but everything else is just...a disappointment.

      I use the Voyager to reveal the hostile. That's pretty much it. It'll take thousands of $ or years of pulls to tier it up otherwise. The find a base feature is intriguing, but I'm still finding more raiding targets the good old fashioned way rather than by tracing ships.

And not just because of the cargo issue. It needs to be easier to use. Plus, now that I have it, I don't see a Daily Gift of the stuff you need to make it really good, like you do for the Cerritos and the Titan.

I personally don't sweep miners but someone snipes mine.... whatever. I am OP46. Would it be worth my time to scan and locate a lower ops player much? Maybe.... really only if I can 1 shot their base or mark it and catch them offline. Is guerilla tactic like sniping my miner a valid tactic.. yes for smaller players that is what they can hit. Now the whales?.... I expect some serious one shotting of bases and crushing of returning warships using this feature. As a midlevel player... won't do much for me, but I expect to get smacked by some whales in your alliance. I can also see low and midlevel players simply spotting bases for the whales in their alliance to go smack. I think this feature takes tactics away from smaller players (like realta burning) when that may be all they can do

    I still think that the "find a player base location" is the most broken and worst thing that has come out so far. I do see a prospective of, the whales have to be kept happy. So lets give an overpower thing to them and lets make the other players spend more time in the game hostile grinding or Armadas that are crap but necessary to get required loot, that somehow ties to some B.S. refinery that gives just the barest reward, to gain an even slight advantage for the common player. My thoughts they should have use relocation tokens for that and made it a station building that by lvl 60 could give the the system. Otherwise the scan would give you a warp range number, hell that would be better than "let's just give you there address". What's next? One click you get all un protected resources including gas, ore, crystal, iso, borg nanoprobe, Latinum and whatever else you had laying around.
