Sorry for the late release time of this one @everyone but streaming twice a day takes up a lot of time! So, here is the basics to Fleet Commands as well as how they operate in Star Trek Fleet Command. The video goes over the mechanic and how it works, basic abilities, sourcing, and more so that everyone can get started. If you’re level 15+ this video is for you! I also give a basic idea of what I think is the right officers for you!
Topics covered:
1. Admiral Kirk vs Captain Spock (and a quick mention of Locutus)
2. Sourcing for the building and fleet commanders themselves
3. Advice on what direction you should take
4. If you have any game mechanic questions, feel free to drop those questions in the comments!

If you were a real father, you would pay for your baby to go to the doctors yourself. Instead if spending it on this game and scrounging off viewers. Sick man
FULL IMPULSE SPEED!
One of the events gives points for spending “rare skill points”. I don’t see rare skill points anywhere. The skill points for Kirk, Spock, Locutus that come from refining uncommon skill points don’t seem to be “rare”
Scopes really needs to implement a research tree reset mechanic like World of Warcraft build trees. Fecked up on first selectable when didn't realise that one cannot unlock all of the options (just clicked parsteel storage as first icon and only subsequently understood that I cannot unlock the dil & trit storage ones).
Rev I messed up and got the warp speed with Kirk is their a way to switch to impulse speed?
I have really screwed the pooch on commanders. chose Kirk instead of Spock. Chose warp speed cause i didn't realise that they were limited. Can we get a do over?
Seems like this feature will have the benefit of power creep across the game
It doesn't matter how good the new content is or isn't. I simply don't have time to do any more in this game. 5 different types of armadas, and I have to do them all to keep progressing. Grinding: 3 3* mats, 3 4* mats, antimatter, data, 3 different iso, 2 different lat, plundered cargo, swarms, venom, and now I have to go backwards and grind borg probes again. Scopely needs to retire the old stuff to free up time for the new stuff. what other MMO makes you keep doing all the newbie and intermediate grinds on top of the advanced grinds? Its too much.
Where is the mission and what is the name of it?
I chose Kirk purely for the ship xp boost, grinding ship xp for ships is so slow, especially for the G4 ships and miners, I'll take anything I can to help with that.
For the most part the whole fleet commanders thing seems very much like you could skip it and not notice which I really like.
I can tell you right off the bat, if you are a lower level (I'm 27), your going to be waiting a very long time to get much of anywhere. Unless of course you are related to j.l. gotrocks. I went with spock as mining/hostiles is something I do all day with dailies and every event. I went with all the help I could get in that area. lol.
I don’t understanding what strength does for the fleet commander
I spent my quantum key already, not realizing they were so important. Is there anyway to get it back?
As usual great video! Thank you
Unless you have tier 9 Vidar don't even bother with Fleet Commanders.
we did the same things kirk and the defense officers and impulse i thought the same thing warp speed meh lmfao! Oh and any future idea to reset or what not? >.< Ty for the video and LLAP Rev Deuce!
You mention that Spock is better for high level players for the efficiencies on building costs and what have you, but you won't be able to unlock those buildings until you're a high level player anyway. Regardless, I still like the mining boosts that Spock gives at my current (31) level and the hostile damage increase he gives as well is so noticeable even at my level
I did Spock Because.. Star Trek Mining Command. Also I will be ops 47 in a few days.
Seems really complicated
I went with Kirk in the end, grinding is such a laborius operation so anything that can help with that is appreciated. Mining rates are not that key for me, since I just leave ships on nodes and wait to be sent home when I am OPC.
Pain point on the Soloborg Armadas is the directives, which means I need to polish off the Vidar and do more grinding… Grr.
I find the game is getting way to complicated. To many currencies and the grind is getting unbearable 8 hours
i was doing the mission to open the Command Center and the mission disappeared. How do i recover/restart it. Several messages to Scopely have gone unanswered.
We get 5 keys with 7 boxes to choose where to use them. Wish I knew that before I spent a key on something I don't really need.
It really would have been nice to NOT be penalized for going through this when it was released… Exited the game and when I went back in LOCKED into a choice I didn't want to make… OPS 33 and selected Spock… gonna be a long grind to unlock Kirk. Maybe pass that "decide later" option up to the powers that be.
Thanks for everything Rev,
-Shawn
Thank you for helping make sense of it. Lol
Hey, thanks for the video
Where in your discord can I find the chart mentioned at 07:00
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make more of your videos in this more subdued fashion! This is the first video of yours that I've been able to watch in its entirety due to its lack of ridiculous theatrics and unnecessary graphics. Less hype and "entertainment" and more data data data!!!!
Which mission to build command center?
I have done the mission and built the command centre, how do I get a fleet commander. Maybe I am stupid but can’t work it out.
Rev! The extra commander shards we get turn to dust. A usable currency. Do you realize what this means? Scopley built in a system to actively remove extra unusable content from inventory i stead of letting it pile up!
Rev call Eco, call Bek. See if everything is OK at Scopley. They may need help. The stress may have broke them.
Hello all, does anyone know if it's worthwhile grabbing the other fleet commander full unlock in the store, or will it be something that can be grinded out over not too much time? Or is the command center pack something ppl think is worthwhile instead?
I was a bit confused. There was an event that granted points for spending the rare skill points. It says those are spent on FC research. But I couldn't find any such research, even having spent $ to upgrade my CC a decent amount. Am I just not seeing it, or do I have to do something special to make such research show up?
If you made a mistake in choosing a selectable skill. Is there any way to change it?
What does the fleet commander strength do? I get the skill trees but what does spending the xp to increase the strength metric do for you?
Just curious but how does one increase the rank of a fleet commander?
How do you get the rank up? I've leveled up kirk to lvl 7 and promoted him to max lvl 20 but his rank is 4/20. So how does the rank go up?
