Not sure what everyone's thoughts are on the current enhancements coming but for a major version change I must say I am slightly disappointed. Biggest changes appear to be for the Arena which is needed and some enhancements to doubling rewards via ads.
Hopefully this will be just a start of better things to come.

Other than that, very underwhelmed so far. But I’ll wait until it hits my store and I’ve applied it, maybe they’ve fixed some of the UI and performance issues?
I think this is meant to be a solution for fleets who have maxed their starbases, to have something to contribute to for their daily chrons.
Depending on when the room is available, It may also helps fleets who only have holoemitters left that they can contribute.
Can I chose "Captain"?
I think it is meant to encourage people to change the default name.
This will be very nice, sick of those captain players
@Shan Can you clarify what exactly this means? As I read it right now, I don't understand how this would be different from getting a free warp.
Free warp = Run a previously 3*ed mission for free once = Net effect of +1 mission
Double reward = Get double rewards for the next mission you run = Net effect of +1 mission
Is the added bonus just the fact that you didn't have to have the mission 3*ed? So it's mainly targeted at newer players who haven't been able to run all missions to completion?
The rest is very ship-centric, which is fine (though it ignores some other issues). I am interested to see what the other ship abilities are - I'm assuming it's an add-on to the trifecta of cloak/board/position, but we'll see. Considering I never use position, another option might be fun to play around with.
Oh captain, my captain!
Yes, that is exactly what's going on.
Was wondering how this also works with Warp 10
I'm thinking this changes means that you won't be getting anything 100% free. Right now an ad is an "ad-warp" and you don't need to spend any chrons. This seems to imply that you have to pay the chrons but get double the rewards. The net result is that you get the same amount of free stuff but this changes what you have to do to get it as well as adding a cost for doing so.
I hope I am wrong because I see this as a nerf to ad-warps
This would not be cool. The whole reason I randomly ad warp is to not use chrons
Oh well, perhaps next time.
It will work like this:
once you have completed the mission/space battle, in the success screen where it shows the items you have received from it, you will have the option to watch an ad to double the amount of said items.
I have asked for additional info and this will be available also when you use Warp 1, but will not be an option when using Warp 10. I will add this to the notes.
Is this replacing the current ad warps, or is it an additional feature for using ads on non 3-starred missions?
It is not replacing Warp 1, it will be presented once the mission has succeeded, not when you want to start it.
Pick an away mission/space battle.
Start it by traveling or use Warp 1.
Complete the mission/space battle on a success.
In the success screen chose to watch an ad to double the amount of each item displayed as having been gained from said mission.
Maybe round it out to a nice 2% chance ? Lol.
Or increase the honor for dismissals.?
Or the ability to freeze FE non FF legendary characters.?
Or (partially) restoring Voyages rewards (Chron nerf specifically) ?
Or instead of that add a group of older legendary characters to the voyages prize pool ?
Or a change to your own tos, a player promise that characters won't be nerfed with in 8 months of release and if they are a pre-defined, fair to the player protection plan.
Or Porthos. We all want Porthos in the game.
Oh that’s cool! Thanks DB! That’s a welcome addition!
Please, no.
But the question is: Will we still have the ad-warp option before running a mission? Because if not, the reason for watching an ad every half hour will be gone for me. I won't watch a fraction of the ads. This will lose DB money and I would rather DB was successful.
Thank you for the screen shot. So if we were trying to get 2x rare drops (like a 4* component) we could run missions until we got the rare drop, then run the ad warp to duplicate those rewards?
Does seem like it could be useful.
Could you please continue the petty bickering? I find it most intriguing.

I think this might also be related to the thread I started about ad-warps only being available in certain circumstances all of a sudden, such as chronitons or scans, which can't instead be used to warp missions.
This will be an awesome addition, especially for farming items that are expensive and have a low drop rate, assuming the 2x warp doubles the actual rewards received the first time.
Yes, you can ad warp the mission, then ad warp it again for double the rewards
