System

So im a Rear Admiral 5 and Im not being awarded Skill points after any kind of engagment. It says I need to gain 2000 more skill points for my next grade but it also says I need to spend 0 more points for next rank. What gives?

The DP removes the stronger players and makes their pvp'ing of weaker opponants much more satisfying to their playstyle (Honorably hiding behind cloaks in packs and nailing any incoming ships with Viral Matrix before attacking with cannon spam.)
Rush through? A month an a half to level cap at a casual pace isn't rushing through anything. I don't think Ive ever been more than half way to a level cap at this point in any other MMO Ive ever played. Ive taken longer to beat single player games....
I don't think it is possible for any casual gamers to have done so with all the server instability from startup.
Yes rushed, most players are not capped.
As of NOW, you can't advance any higher than Rear Admiral, or Brig. General for Klingons. My suggestion is, to level a Klingon character, PvP, gear yourself up, and things like that while they work on the new updates.
Cryptic stated that they expected 2 hours per level x 45 levels = 90 hours
At 2 hours a day since release you would be capped.
He did not rush
i've not rushed at all and currently RA2 i've been playing quite casually.
First MMO is it?
I heard in an interview a week or so ago that the overwhelming majority of players are in the teens and twenties. I can believe it as well seeing how the PVP q went when I hit commander on an alt klingon.
those are probably re-rolls on alts, players who have been here from the start and not reached a RA rank are prob playing like 1 min a day. I
It isnt that hard to kill 5 of those and scan 4 of these is it? PVE in game to RA5 should state 'skill not necessary'. To get to RA is a given, you just have to accept a mission and 'show up'.
Completing this game is 2 months is not rushing, its just that easy and that devoid of content.
No not rushed. I hit Radm 5 a week ago and that's playing from headstart. I also have a Klingon and another fed. I did not play every day.
To repeat. No not rushed. You are wrong. :eek:
Sorry to completely disagree... but you seriously have to try to not level.
I agree. I didn't rush. I just played at my own pace and got into a grove and before you knew it you where level capped.
As of right now I am not happy at all with this game and I am stuck with a lifetime sub. Wish I could get a refund!
The game is too restrictive, PvP has no universe wide meaning, planets are lifeless, and everything is too damn repetitive.
The game was released too early.
Star Trek is about seeking out new life, exploring, diplomacy, and Starships...not level capped, repetitive boredom.
I really hope something good happens soon because the game is losing me fast and it has only been 2 months!
Well I reached RA5 so I started another character...got them to RA5 and well...started a 3rd...got them to RA5 and now with no more character slots left got bored and started another game. Level Caps FTL:(
I'n most game I try a few toons before settling on one I like (got 9 80 in WoW now). But here in STO I tried engineer, didnt like it (lack of mix in the kits) so I rolled a sci scince I wanted self heals. Was very happy with the sci, was shitloads of fun to play. The game was inspiring to me, so I kept playing alot, had the hooks in me like FO3 had. Was prolly mostly the story missions that hooked me and my away team.
2 weeks later I'm there at RA5, with squatdiddly to do. So right now I'm back in WoW again having a blast in BGs and heroics. I sure hope content and ranks will be added soon, lots of both for more fun STO.
STF just doesnt do it for me, did one, got a weapon, found out i can get better weapons from the exp. mark vendor. Who really wants the craptacular radiation proc anyways? Procs 1 out of 10 shots. Total waste compared to crit sev and crit chance on the exp. mark weapons. STF doesnt feel like you have a special task force with you either. It feels like a random wipe fest till you kill the final boss.
You need Level Caps to balance the game every so often. Of course the level cap should be increased from time to time, frequency is a whole new topic. The problem is lack of content at level cap, I thought leveling was far too quick, far too many points getting awarded of every category.
We should have had everything halved, we would still have ended up grinding explores and had the same amount of points at end game but the repeating of explores etc would have been while levelling and not made this so much of an RA5 in 2 weeks and nothing but repeats to do.
