So how is your Fleet activity level in this New Year?

What's your fleet activity Level now as opposed to say at the beginning of Dec? I hear a lot of people who are done with the winter stuff saying they are going on hiatus until the 3rd year anniversary event.

About the same as it's been all month long. We have a core group of die-hards that stick around, and occasionally someone we haven't seen in months will pop in for a few hours then disappear again.

Since Season 7, progression has been incredibly slow due to the multiple grindings. My fleets progressed 1 Starbase Project and finally unlocked Embassy Diplomacy Level 1 since Season 7 began. While Fleet Projects are more helpful with the DOFF costs, the Dilithium costs of the Embassy System is not helpful at all.

This Starbase system is not accomodating at all for small fleets, and people have moved on to larger fleets or spending large sums to buy equipment from large fleets, because it will literally take years to get to unlock the upper Starbase system. So hopefully Cryptic is working on ways to make the system more friendly for small fleets.

My fleet seems to be doing well, but we've had a large drop off in dilithium contributions since the winter event started. I'm guessing that my fleet mates are grinding in the event, for the breen ship, and will come back afterwards. I only hung around the event long enough to help do the winter wonderland special project for the starbase. Now that we have that complete I'm off to grind for an Armitage.

Fleet is fairly active. Frankly, as active as it has been since they launched starbases. But starbase progression has slowed to a crawl as everyone is dumping all their resources into the reputation systems. Until people cap both of those out at tier 5, I really don't expect it to fully pick back up again.

We are VERY active. On almost a daily basis, we can be found doing STFs together. Also, we are quite the chatty bunch.

In addition, we started goofing around in front of Q, and we somehow ended up recruiting 4 Initiates in 1 hour! 4! In an hour!

Plus, they all have proven to be great contributors to the fleet!

Fed side projects are moving along just fine for my fleet.
But KDF side has stalled for a few weeks when the Starbase Tier 4 upgrade was slotted, we have fewer KDF players + characters so it took a while to get the Fleetmarks together, with the Rep System + Winter Event nobody had time to really grind any FM either, with the Foundry Clickies gone there wasn't even the passive 50 FM every day... at best i was able to contribute 10 FM or so from running Minetrap and petting that FM Tribble.

Anyway we got it started after what felt like an eternity where KDF needed nothing but Fleetmarks and now that both Winter Event and Rep System are coming to their End the KDF Fleetbase projects should move faster again.

On the Fed side of the Fleet there's about 5-10 players on a day.

On the KDF side of the Fleet you'll find me and the little voice in my head that keeps asking my why I stay :mad:

It hasn't been a week in the new year why would things change much from last week.

chalpen · January 2013

Kdf fleet. About 20 on at all times last year. Now about 15.
Last night 8. But it will go back up this weekend

My Fleet is doing the same as it has always done... at a crawl.

I didn't create it for anything more than more storage space, so all the extra stuff are just nice trimmings for me to occasionally glance at and wonder what it would be like if I actually had other 'Real People' members.

We've quietened right down, but that's pretty normal at this time of year. Over Christmas/New Year, people have other commitments for the most part, it's also a prime time of the year for people to get new games which they want to play straight away. Usually things pick up again around the end of January.

Personally, I haven't been on for more than an hour a day in the last two weeks, just because we've had family visiting over the holidays.

We hit the 500 cap last fall and have more people asking to join every day. It's becoming almost impossible to find inactives (no log-ins in 45 days, down from 60) to kick.

We really need a fleet project to raise the membership cap (hint, hint, Cryptic).

Same here 15-20 members on over last 24 hours. It is usually 10-15 during the year.

We got some new recruits in Dec, very keen players who really like the game. That is a great sign.

On to Season 8 now and that will certainly see our roster sizes increase. I'm hoping the content makes good use of doff and rep systems which all these new players that just joined will appreciate because after 6 months playing they will start wondering why they need 100,000 commendation on engineering and begin questioning the point to all of it!

Cryptic needs to continue getting things like that right or even players like me will chuck in the towel and rosters won't be all that busy. Got faith though, they are well on the ball.

So how is your Fleet activity level in this New Year?
