Phase 5 is Live: The Holodeck (UPDATED)

Hello There Clammers!

FINALLY!! WOOHOO!!  Star Trek Phase 5 is officially live in Quahog!Warp Core Level 5 IconStarfleet XP Level 8

Head over to your Enterprise and upgrade to Warp Core 5 (if you’ve met the requirements).  This week we’ll unlocked the Holodeck, Data and Talosian Stewie.

As always we’ll be back with more details as soon as we go through them…

(p.s. Bunny is hijacking the post, hang in there with me)

They dropped the amount needed for the Holodeck to only 20 Life Support Energy. WOOHOO!!Holodeck Locked

FYI… a TinyCo has done something TRULY amazing with this release. They are offering Spock as a Clam Purchase, but donating a portion of the proceeds to the Nimoy Foundation in his honor. That is awesome TinyCo! 🙂 

As soon as I opened my game, Peter and Riker start off with some dialog for a 3 day Clam Sale. Buy $9.99USD worth of Clams and get 25 Dark Matter for FREE.A Deal is a Deal

FYI… I just bought another $100 USD in Clams as was given the award of Dark Matter. When you tap on “GO” it actually shows the top 4 Clam options for you to purchase. A Deal is a Deal Clam Shack

So any at the $9.99 USD and above should give you Dark Matter. A Deal is a Deal Payout

 


NIMOY IN FAMILY GUYIn Rememberance of Leonard Nimoy

First, the items I am very happy to see…

Leonard Nimoy Memorial StatueLeonard Nimoy Memorial Statue (Decoration): FREE

SpockSpock (Character): 265 Clams, Portion goes to the Nimoy Foundation in his honor. (Instant Buy for me!)  Helps with Troi, Locutus, Beverly, Vulcan Quagmire, Data (still verifying what the “help” is for others). Comes with a questline, A Logical Fallacy. (He IS Voiced. And… it IS Him!  RIP LLAP)

Items he will help with: Headbands, Medical Tricorders, Duct Tape, Really Big Q-tips, & Floppy Disks

Here are a few of his Phrases you can hear…
“Live Long and Prosper”
“Do you have any idea how lucky we are to have each other?”
“He’s here, Spock is here”
“Give us more Star Trek”
“I am in control of my Emotions”
“Did I say something inappropriate?”

 



Now for the New Items. Remember, until you complete Update to Warp Core Level 5 and complete the last Phase questline, Road to Recovery, you will be limited on what you can see. The New Main Questline will start with System Failure and to unlock the Holodeck.

PHASER BATTLES

Romulan Warbird

A new Craft has joined in the Phaser Battling fun, the Romulan Warbird. They will phase in n out (on screen about 5 seconds), so you gotta shoot them while you can. It is easiest to tap right on the CENTER of one the moment it appears. It will only take ONE shot to destroy it and get a Microchip (along with some possible Dilithium Crystals & XP)

Side Note: it ALSO drops Condoms for Vulcan Quagmire… so GO FOR THE BIRD. BIRD IS THE WORD!! Lol

(I do not see them anymore on the Shielded PeterCraft or Warbird in some games, waiting for verification… my suggestion is to HOLD OFF right now if it is not working properly for you)Phaser Battles Romulan Warbird

UPDATE 4/17: If you are in Week 4, you will still see the PeterCraft. If you are in Week 5, you will now see just the Warbird, but it should now still drop Condoms to help you still get Vulcan Quagmire or Emotion Chips.

Emotion ChipSpace Condoms

If you are updated, but still need Laser Pointers… send them an in game support ticket right away please. 

A reader noted that if they shot an Asteroid too with the Warship, it helped dropped both items. As I have Quagmire, I am unable to confirm it. Try it if you’d like. 

 


NEW BOSS TO BATTLE- BORG BERTRAMBattle Borg Bertram

Over by the Holodeck you will notice the New Robotic Character ready to do Battle. It happens to be Bertram. So just how do you defeat him? (We will go into a LOT more detail on this in another post too.)

Once you tap on him, you will start the first 24hr clock for Battle. You will have 24hrs to defeat his Heart Level and Send him into “time out” to get Dark Matter Payouts.

The First 3 Bosses are as follows…

Battle Task: Stun Bertram, 4hrs, Damage varies by Character

Time to Defeat: 24hrs (keep going as long as you can and as far as you can.)

Cool Down Period: 4hrs.Borg Bertram Cool Down

If you can defeat him within the 24 hr timer, he will Cool Down and reawaken in the Next Level Up Form with better payouts. (Drill Master Borg/ Laser Borg Bertram)

If you do not defeat him within th e24 hr timer, he will Cool Down and reawakend at the lowest Battle Level (Clawed Borg Bertram)

You can see your progress on the Heart Meter as you battle him. Clawed Borg Bertram Heart Meter

Side Note: As with the Yeti Battles from Christmas, only tap ONE Character to complete the battle when you are down to the last few. This will allow all the other Characters you are using to keep battling him on Cool Down, but you MUST have them start the battle BEFORE he starts the Cool Down. By doing this, you will save 4 hrs of battling time as once he’s done cooling down you restart his next fight you will have Characters ready to tap and attack right away. Just do NOT tap the Check Marks til you start him up again. 🙂

 


TRIBBLES NO MORE ?

Tribble Trio

Double checking to make sure, but it looks like this Phase 5 is when the Tribbles finally stopped. I have to say I am grateful they stayed as long as they did as originally they were set to end in Phase 1. So all that extra time with them was a bonus.

Good News… they seem to be squeekin back on board again. Longer spawn time, less of them… but some are showing back round the Enterprise. So take a look and see if they’re there for you too.

There is a LOT of info we are still going through and will continue to update as we play it out live, but this should at least get you started on it all. Keep in mind a lot of this requires layers and steps to verify it all. No matter, we are here to help as we all go into the new level together. You do still have til the 30th to work on all this.

What do you think so far? Anything interesting to you? See how Data’s items are ALWAYS on some of them? Thoughts? Let us know

    I have not been able to get into the game since 3:00. Never gets past the loading screen. I’ve uninstalled and restarted and every other thing I can think of. When I reinstalled the game it would load okay as a new game but once you try to sign in it crashes again. Plenty of memory, good wifi signal, nothing else running.

  7. Just wanted to comment that i DID spawn tribbles recently! Seems to be the normal tribbles we started with. I think four of them spawned.

    Also a glitch i noticed, is for the room that gives hyposprays. I noticed it gives tolosin stewies clothes too, but i thought it was not giving me hyposprays anymore. It is, however the picture it shows as its collected is coming out as the item for Stewie, but my count goes up for both items. Which is great since i need 5 more hyposprays.

      I would love to help them with this cause. Every now and then there are some really bad translations at things. Sometimes they got corrected after some time, but for example at jesus clam to water quest there still stands the phrase about his birthday cake. Or the second Bertram is called over here “Ausbilder Bertram” what means “Instructor Bertram”.
      I think they got the drill part wrong.
      And i don’t want send in a ticket for every single wrong translation. The support has other important things to do. (And i’m very slow at writing on my phone)

  16. So I just noticed something. Tiny Co is either very bad at math or they really want to rip people off. I am hoping it’s just bad at math. I was adding up how much each item for unlocking data would cost (minus the things you get from the warbird because I have those.) Currently to click the unlock icon on my data would cost 1075 clams. However, if I chose to buy each item separately (the option it gives me at the bottom) it would only cost 148 for the floppies ( I need 37) @ 4 each. 96 clams for the cat food @ 6 clams each since I need 16. It would cost 150 for the anti virus since I need 25 of the 28 and they are 6 clams. Now that comes to 394 clams if individually bought each item. That’s a long way from 1075. I think the math got screwed up or something. Don’t you?

    Like

    • Did you factor in the cost of the Dilithium too?

      Like

      • I forgot about the dilithium because I have well over 30K crystals. I already had checked that off as soon as it went live. The 1075 quote was after the crystals and the warbird drops. I just tested it and got him for 394 clams by buying it all seperately.

        • mind you I don’t really think Tinyco intended for Datas items to be so cheap. I think the 1075 quote I had was what they SHOULD have cost and something miscoded kinda like what happened with the taco trucks. But since you ladies already spend a LOT on these characters, I figured I would say something and maybe you could get in on the happy glitch before its noticed.

          Also the original buy out total was 1700+ clams for Data! I about died when I seen that. I believe that’s the highest I have personally seen for a character buy out, so far. This event has had few up there in clam buy outs actually

  17. TinyCo have sped up the Petercraft. I may be behind, but it’s become impossible to hit one now. You now have to shoot before the target turns red to be able to hit. I’ve wasted more crystals missing than hitting, which sucks. Do you get objects shooting asteroids?

    Also what do you have to do to get the Borg quest line started to unlock them? Me not able to go after them is majorly slowing my progress on unlocking characters, since that’s the only way to get items outside of shooting the crappy Petercraft.

It doesn’t seem like there’s going to be another way to earn and I know I shouldn’t stress out about it now. but the measly buildings and characters just don’t seem enough.

    On a slightly more random note, does anyone now if trying to buy clams with a google play gift card would the money come directly from the card or would it try to take it from the account first? I’ve never bought anything through Google Play so I know nothing.

I *just* crafted Quagmire’s costume, and have Troi and Locutus, so I apparently spent all those clams just for help with Data’s disks. Why can’t he help with Bertram, or Dark Matter, or…anything? They released a lot of clam characters so far with this event, and they’re all seeming like one-hit wonders as far as usefulness. I’ve made peace with the likelihood they’ll rarely/never be helpful again, but for them to have such limited use during the event is sad. — I also didn’t see Kirk in the Replicator when I checked for Stewie just now.

    Sorry for such a long post, I guess I’m making up for my period of silence lately. Thank you ladies for all the help and especially the listening!

    • It is Friday, we launch them on Saturdays 😉

      They let everyone move on… but you still have to play out the questlines. So finish the ones for the Prior Phases to mover forward.

      You kinda answered your own question on not seeing Costumes. You were making one. Quagmires. Once you tap “Create” all other costumes lock out to avoid that ugly glitch we had during comic con in Al’s. Only one costume at a time. Once you tap on the check mark to complete the creating of him… the costumes of others will return. 😉

  39. I may be panicking prematurely, but I foresee a dilithium crystal shortage. 4000 crystals for Data, 4000 for Stewie, 8000 for Picard, 15000 for Kirk, and, who knows how many we will need for the rest of the event. With no more Tribbles, what do you recommend we do to achieve the needed number of crystals? If anyone has the answer, it’s the savants at FGA. Grazie!

  40. Question, sorry if has been asked but only have a few minutes. Will have time to read posts later on tonite. So I noticed a timer on Q’s That Who Part 1Quest, set to expire in about 4 hrs. I didn’t have time to do all of his Part 1 tasks ’cause I previously had him non-stop focused on getting condoms. So wondering if get everyone started on Part 1 of the questline, before the 4 hrs expires, does the whole quest for Q still expire? Hope my question makes sense.

    • Players complain that they do not want Premium Character questlines flooding their menu as they do not want to buy the character. So they made it so they would time out within 24hrs if you did not buy a Character.

      • But I bought the character as soon as he became available. Why is his questline timing out? Usually its the time to purchase the character that times out not his quests. That doesn’t seem right. :/ If I purchased him as soon as they offered him, I should be able to do his quests. Right?
        BTW, I could not believe the whole jerky dialogue when the event opened after us talking about it and how we were both thinking about beef jerkey yesterday. Lol. Did you know in advance?

  43. So the items for the new characters seem fairly sane this time, but what is with the dilithium crystal requirements? I’ve never had more than 2000 let alone 4000, 4000, 8000 and 15000! Was feeling better about this event leading up to this weeks section as I had managed to get caught up and unlocked the previous characters only a couple of hours after the new update.
    It’s especially galling when the buildings and rooms give you 1 crystal every 2 hours. Oh and they have removed a source of crystals (tribbles) at the same time 😦

      • I tried everything except re-installing the game. Nothing worked. In a flash of inspiration I logged in on an ipad, completed the task, and then went back to the phone.

      • Sorry, but I don’t know how to post a comment, so I’m doing here. I just did the Apr 17 update from the app store to my iPad. Since then, I’ve been completely shut out of the game. No matter what I try, ie hard shut down, re-install the game, etc. I get nothing. As soon as I get “play with head…” that’s where it shuts down back to its little icon. After the hard shut down, I did get the Crash FAQ White screen, so I was able to send a email to TinyCo, but so far all I’ve gotten is the auto response saying they’ll get back to me. Oddly enough, the game was working fine before the update – it was able to take my money for the latest clam purchase and everything!

        • Before you panic… hang in there. 😉

          This is a HIGH Impact Memory Game. That means it needs a LOT of memory “wiggle room” on your device (like 3GB to be safe if not more). It needs a good, strong, solid WiFi signal. None of that up and down on the meters will do. It likes ALL the attention when running, so make sure any app on your device other than it are NOT running. Shut them all down. “Kill” the other apps.

          So try this… Make sure every other app is completely shut down and not running on your device. Make MORE room in the memory of your device if you can. Then check your signal. Make sure it is strong as it can be. 😉

            • Let me put it this way… I have 16GB in the device, 64GB on an external. BUT… both are still being used by a ton of other things on my device. If the room starts to get a lil tight on the device itself (not external) I notice issues. If other apps are running, like FaceBook, twitter, the OTHER game we right on… it has issues. So just see if you notice anything else going on that would take that needed attention from the game and not let it load to your device.

        • Same issue here. Even re-installing the game following a hard reset of the device hasn’t helped. I’ve mailed the detals to Tinyco – hopefully the more reports they get, the better the chance they have of fixing it before the event expires! I missed out on several of the final xmas items/characters due to similar problems.
