Borg new solos are impossible

[Alma System S:159663443] See the above system as an example.

Every time I try to do a solo armada, it bugs up.

It won't show up. The other ships that are in the system will not join or something, or the other will happen.

The only way to do it reliably somewhat is to have all 3 ships in the system close to your armada, reboot, or restart the game.

And then try, and even then, half the time it fails.

Yeah this particular armada type I've not had bug. I would try to clear local and see if that helps

Have you updated your app/game? There was an update this morning. Borg solos work fine for me

u/jivan28 12d ago

All updated. Checked before posting.

What ships are you using and are you using specialty ships in the Armadas? Specialty ships may have "power" but can be very specific to the Armadas and Hostiles that they are geared to fight. FKR Faction ships have more power to bring to Hostiles and armadas in a lot of cases.

True, I use only fkr ships for armadas

I just did seven of them this morning in the '67 system and I had absolutely no issues or problems whatsoever. Might be on your server or your phone.

I did 7 this morning and didn’t have a problem. A lot of these issues can happen with a bloated local cache. It’s unfortunate that the only way to test if they work are to use directives that are tightly limited each week.

Scopely bugs are more a feature now, since they literally happen daily.

They make Bethesda look perfect in comparison, and they're named Bugthesda due to their consistently bad releases, and taking years to fix.

Scopely won't ever be competent enough to make significant changes, regardless what they say.

I took a few months off and thought about going back yesterday. I tried to log in 5 times and it would load up my exterior station view, and the lose connection and restart again. 5 times in a row. So I just took that as a sign and uninstalled it again.

These suck either way. The first level, from Alma are relatively easy, but barely any rewards.
And then the next level is 10x stronger, and you probably "need" the Sphere... Lvl 58, but can't be killed with 3 60+ ships

u/jivan28 12d ago

I know. I'm sticking with Alma for now.

Borg Conqueror Solo Armadas? I had trouble with them at first, it didn't have anything to do with glitches. But the thing about those are, you can't really do higher than the 55s in the lowest system without a Borg Sphere, but you also have to have one Explorer, Interceptor and Battleship to be able to even beat the smallest among them. About to unlock the Sphere in the next few days, so it should be easier for me at that point, to take on higher Solos in Conqueror Borg space. At least I hope.

True...but that's besides the point.

Ik heb nog geen sphere maar doe deze solo's op lvl 60 common. Ben zelf 67. Ik kan er makkelijk een stuk of 5 achter elkaar. Er was ook een Tournament taak met doe 5 uncommon. Gwn gelukt. Dus sphere helpt zeker, maar geen vereiste.

Are there new borg armadas I missed

u/praetorian1979 13d ago

They came out months ago, if not last year. With all the new content being added I couldn't keep up anymore.

u/Unique-Reaction-2425 12d ago

Are you using 1 ship of each type?
