A few blunt notes:
- if you no longer enjoy the game, take a break
Did that 2 weeks ago, uninstalled the game from all my devices (to avoid an accidental relapse). Glad I have my life (and weekends) back. It was fun for a long time but been a chore for at least the last year or so.
SSR Barkey is correct, no new gameplay since 2017...
1) The puny amount of honor given for dismissed crew in relation to the high cost of citations.
2) Multiple offers popping up EVERY TIME YOU OPEN THE GAME. I think once a day would be enough.
3) Galaxy events need a quick build button like we have for equipping crew… it is so tedious the way it is it’s not even fun to do.

It's only one build for galaxy anyway. If you were around before quick build for crew, you had to go and build every level of the item tree. That doesn't exist for galaxy events.
And please don't make galaxy events quicker to play. I would have thought people would realize what would happen since the skirmish changes. Making the event quicker to play doesn't just make it quicker for you, it makes it quicker for every player. The result is the total time spent playing the event doesn't change, but the amount of resources needed to compete goes up. The only thing that would happen by speeding up galaxy events is they would require more chronitons to rank.

I agree 100%.
On a side note, statements like these are the ones that make me super nervous. I hate to be so much of a pessimist, but given WRG's track record since taking over this game, I read statements like the above and can't help but think that somewhere, a WRG manager is reading that, stroking their goatee and saying "this is exactly what we should do to keep people from hoarding chronitons"

They should raise the chrono cost of the new top crew if they want people from hoarding.
Though, It's only a problem for old players or none collectors.
That warp 10 feature is not available to all players. That really stinks and detracts from the game a large amount for those that are not vip3 and likely is a big reason players quit.
I think one of the big reasons that people quit this game is because eventually they just see through all of the smoke and mirrors.
To paraphrase a rather famous and much more verbose individual than I;
They will one day be in the theater at closing time, and the chairs will be turned up onto the tables, the floors roughly swept with ticket stubs scattered about, the curtains will draw back and they will see the brick wall behind the main stage.
Does anybody pay 3,000 dilithium for five additional crew slots? (Yeah, I didn’t think so.)
I do think so - I certainly do it, it's the reason I get the monthly card, it's the only thing I spend dil on.
I agree with some of the other annoyances people have raised in this thread, one I'd add that I don't think I've seem mentioned is that if I'm wanting to add a particular individual to my space battle crew the process is ridiculous, I have to look through thumbnails of my whole crew (currently 333) and recognise the individual by sight, generally after looking them up on the wiki.
1. Ads not appearing only after a restart
2. If the game is running in the background and you connect/disconnect a Bluetooth audio device it will play game sounds , the f sound slider is harder to move the spending dilitium by accident. After 5 years and almost no new crew sounds , the in-game SFX are boring and annoying.
3. Opening mails and having the game freez for 5 -10 secs after 2 or more mails open.
4. Cryovault resets the search criteria after every unfreezing.
5. Losing 90 of your mirror matches the last day of the gauntlet .
6. 10h+ voyages with 0 purples.
7. 90%+ shuttle failures.
8. Notifications are a joke on : Android (Google play store, Amazon market and Huawei) and on iOS and Windows. Best use a countdown timer 😂.
9. Voyages freezing ondilema if low on AM. This after atleast 3 years of this happening. Tho much more rarely then before
Ads not syncing between devices and Ads not working untill restart of app after serverside change
Search box for all screens where you need to scroll to select a card ( skirmish has it, voyage/arena/faction does not)
DYC offers blocked by previous offers.
All gold cards should get a DYC crew offer button on the card for 12hrs after you receive them, not just the 1 every xx amount of hours...
Missed out on doubling event crew several times due to this, i guess you do not want my money..
1. overlapping screens when an offer or new event reminder pops up - others have explained in detail, so I won't repeat the details.
2. Starting the game with a different account requires you to start the game, go to the login screen to enter new credentials, then exit the game and restart the game. Personally, I would prefer a login screen when the game starts. I can remember a password for a game that I play every day.
3. The ending screens for campaigns ALWAYS pop up twice with the exact same content, except for the very first test campaign, which had an 'END Campaign' followed by a 'BEGIN Campaign' screen. I believe the initial test campaign was 'Section 31 campaign' on 04/18/2019 - 05/16/2019.
- - Is this JUST so that you have TWO chances to buy the premium track?

Well - That's a nice surprise, I find the newest update has removed this campaign bug. I am happy to see the Begin Campaign screen again! Well done!
I struggled for an Internet connection at the start of the event because I was on a train. To be clear, I am not holding TP responsible for the Internet connection! However, the overlapping screens advertising crap caused it to be nigh on impossible to navigate. I could have completed more shuttles earlier on if these annoying overlaps didn't occur. If I were a newer player that didn't understand what was going on I'd have uninstalled and moved onto another time sink.
IMHO this is the one thing TP need to sort pronto. Forget your fancy new AI and sort out the basics. For your own business if not our sanity.

Thanks for reading if you still are.
There is a spot on the overlapping screens in the bottom right corner that I use, to select the spot on the image underneath to continue. This part of the image below is between the buttons on the top image. (sorry, I don't recall the button names right now). Check it out, it works fairly well for me, and the overlapping images are not a large problem, but they ARE still annoying.
The annoying placement of the deals to the bottom of the screen so u see it all the time instead of having it tucked away at the top. Also, moving cadets so I cannot easily click on it. Idk why they keep hiding everything away and making the game less user friendly.

Indeed, that seems to be a trend all over. I was recently told that the most recent version of Windows doesn't give the option to keep similar open programs from stacking. I like to have more than one Word document open at once, so I turned off the "feature" that stacks them. In the new version, there is no option for that. I have no intention of updating.

You will be forced to this week if you want to continue playing.

He was talking about windows.
Indeed. Windows. I don't particularly think the new changes to this game layout out useful, but it is a minor inconvenience, especially as I have reduced game play and stopped spending since the developers are unreliable and don't care. That won't stop me playing, just paying. I also know the Windows thing will eventually be mandatory, but I won't do it any sooner than I must if they make it worse. I just put it as a heads-up.
1) Nothing purposeful to do in the game other than dailies most days.
2)No new episodes/distress calls for years.
3) No reason to complete in weekend events when the crew I already have are just as good or better and still need a couple stars to finish them off.

These ads, these ads by far are the most annoying thing I find in the game.
I had to think very long before I knew what was wrong.
Don't you have like thousands boost packs?
what am I missing? What's wrong here?
He doesn't get the 10 x crew for the daily 3 x crew/boost.
Yep I noticed that too with my campaign this time. U get stopped right before that pull so can’t use it for the day.
2) Multiple offers popping up EVERY TIME YOU OPEN THE GAME. I think once a day would be enough.
3) Galaxy events need a quick build button like we have for equipping crew… it is so tedious the way it is it’s not even fun to do.

2. Endless menus being added when its REALLY not needed.
Cannot think of a third aside from galaxies stalling for an increasing time the longer you do them when completing a recipe on all formats.
