    Just announced as part of update 7.0.9.

    Thank you DB.

    Thank you, thank you, thank you.

    Ditto! This is one of the tweaks that will go towards a more streamlined play experience. :)

    To get the double-item adwarp, you'll still need to run the mission manually. Otherwise you'll miss out on 450K credits every Saturday and lots of chronitons and shuttle boosters through the week, not to mention doubling rare items like holoemitters.

    edit: oops, I'm not thinking right. Can just hit "warp", not "ad-warp!"

    What is "Ad-Warp" and why can't Scott do it?

  • What is "Ad-Warp"
    Lets you watch a video advert in exchange for a warp of a mission

    why can't Scott do it?

    If I remember correctly, you play on facebook and ad warps are not supported on FB.

    Granted, I've only seen the update on Facebook and Steam, but the "mission complete" interface looks different. Are we SURE we'll be able to double the rewards? Asking for Thursday and Saturday.

    I will agree that this is very good in many ways, but I will politely state that I would still like a crew slot sale. I have buckets of dilithium waiting to use for slots. About 10 free slots from frozen cadets is great. I will happily use them. I have 27 premium pulls for crew slot sales, though, and I would buy more if I had space.

    At last count, I'm up to 52!

    Here's what the success screen looks like on Steam client. I want confirmation the iOS and Android app will have the ability to double rewards:

    Meh.

    What is even the point of having 2-3*s (not to mention 1*) anymore if you can simply warp cadet missions? Why not simply make 1-3*s not count against crew slots, or simply permanently discount the cost of crew slots?

    Even when I was FTP I had more than enough crew slots to handle cadet missions and the rest. Sure, I was limited in what I could do, but I could still do a lot.

    I don't really see making them warp-able as a good or bad improvement, it's just... Meh.

    I can't believe this, so happy :smile:

    Guys, I still feel like warping them is going to lose us the ability to double rewards. Thus giving incentive to keep the crew in hand.

    I suppose it's possible although that's not the case with regular missions.

    I guess we will find out at 12:01 tonight? Did they fix the Warps not counting for Daily?

    My guess is noon Eastern time tomorrow instead of midnight.

    Just make sure before freezing crew. Do a warp of a cadet mission, and then if you can double rewards do it. Then make sure you got credit for cadet mission in achievements. If not, do missions with cadets and try again next day.

    No, actually it won't be until the mobile clients get the update. So, sometime tomorrow?

    Sad though, I thought it was an interesting game mechanic, requiring players to keep a well rounded crew in terms of rarity to do everything in the game. But I guess the overall game play has evolved and its time to put that away.

    I will miss seeing Tourist Jadzia kick Command tuckass on the weekends though...

    I actually agree. It added a different challenge. The whole reason they were introduced was to keep the 3 and 2 Star cards useful. Now only newer players will need to keep them in their crew until they Max out every cadet mission.

    I always assumed they'd add new and different cadet mission. This seems to imply that's never going to be the case

    I wonder if this marks the end of new uncommon and rare cards?

    I forgot it up is a "rolling" update.

    However, the Daily question can be answered tonight. I'll be up, any way. I'll check.

    you still need to build the crew initially as a new player in order to unlock all the cadet missions before you can warp them. then they also count towards the total crew achievements. They are just not sitting around in all of our crew now who have LONG since critted all cadet missions.

    This. You gotta master the Mission first. Also, 1* & 2* Crew can be quick and easy way to get Crew Immortalized for the Achievements..........

    Nothing tonight on iOS. Maybe tomorrow at noon eastern.
  • I thin i like this change very much - even if i can't double the rewards i can at least reduce some of the 2 and 3* crew
  • Jim SteeleJim Steele ✭✭✭✭✭
    Thursdays missions are the only ones I care about the double rewards on, so I guess I can keep out three crew out if necessary.

    DB: Do Better
  • Massive thanks to DB for this. I'm not bad for crew slots, but would still like to trim down the roster to make it more navigable.
  • YateballYateball ✭✭✭✭✭
    If the chatter about it not allowing double rewards turns out to be the case then this definitely will be soured a bit, but I'd still be able to freeze some crew that I use on days of the week I don't care about doubling. Saturday is really the only "must double" day for me as I'm always credit starved (too much replication on guys like that DAMN DOCTOR LAFORGE)
  • I play on Steam. I warped all my cadet challenges missions of the day and later noticed that none of them counted in achievements. Since I don't have enough dilithium to waste on the purchase of extra missions, I guess I won't be getting my daily reward today. Because I'm only level 49, I don't think that warping Cadet Challenges is so advantegeous for me at the moment.
