  • Ah, I see. So it's a push to drive people more towards buying those big things with cash only, since it doesn't look like you can use in-game Zen for those. They really should have included that link with the blog - hopefully they'll put it in as an edit to make it more clear. I didn't know that page existed, was just…
  • Ohhhhh, ok. So it's an additional bonus on top of normal bonus. Good news, everyone.
  • I find this post very confusing. What is 25% off and what is 50% off? I'm not finding any "packs" in Arc - is this another way to get to the C-store or is it just the Zen packets? Supposedly, the packs in Arc have been on sale for two days now? The bonus Zen charts are also off, switching between amounts you buy and total…
  • In theory, I agree that it needs some changes. I've been in multiple runs where the entity doesn't even get off a single 1/3 health pulse burst. That's obviously not as intended, and a symptom of the much more serious powerdash (can't even call it "creep" anymore). However: 1) Cryptic heads (geko) have gone on record…
  • Yes, all of my Federation-Romulans have both a Tactical and Engineering recruitment each, but my KDF-Romulan hasn't found one yet. It seemed odd that the others would have multiples without his getting even one yet, but not statistically impossible, so was just wondering if anyone else could confirm a KDF-Romulan…
  • I mean this as constructive criticism, since these seem to be following a long-time trend. These designs look essentially two-dimensional (length and width, but no real height). When designing the Sovereign class, the art team explicitly wanted something that looks good from all angles - including the intimidating…
  • While I understand moving forward, why remove the existing T5 versions of these ships? Getting them is entirely at the customer's discretion, they have unique Admiralty cards at least, in some cases they unlock certain things (Spiral Wave Disruptors that I don't see mentioned with the Keldon), and there are numerous…
  • Thanks, but that doesn't really help. I've been aware of this for quite some time and found it both frustrating and inconsistent. When I found a way to get the mission - that was specific and replicable for me - I wanted to share it for others having the same headaches. Edit: Can't tell if this is double-posting or not.…
  • This has been frustrating me since the Delta Recruit event at least, but tonight I FINALLY found it and ran all of my characters through. It's hard to find because it wasn't just the location, but the direction I came from. The mission appeared in "Current Map" assortment of missions, in the upper right corner of the…
  • I had a similar conversation earlier with a friend of mine. Every time I think they can't sink any lower, they manage to prove me wrong.
  • Warning: this will be long. I offer this as honest feedback from my perspective, because there's no way to improve on something if no one tells you honestly what they feel is wrong. I'm not going to touch what ISN'T there (like a Klingon campaign), or what was said off the cuff in podcasts or Twitter, just what is…
  • Divine intervention. But, honestly, these forums don't mean much of anything. If you look through all the threads, you'll see that the overwhelming majority of posts come from the same ~20 people. It's better to think of this forum as a tiny, private group of people.
  • It's called get as much in at the end of the quarter/fiscal year as you can. Unannounced, 1-day sale on everything at about the most popular time for fiscal year ends. Look up PWE's stocks or something and you might even be able to verify that.
  • Since only Federation characters can be Temporal Agents, how does the duty officer account unlock (and any other faction restricted content that may be in there) work for Romulans and Klingons? Is there simply a faction-appropriate version of that reward available at their appropriate claim point (like the Delta Recruit…
  • What's your point? So the "T6 Constitution" is a replica, too, or a mirror universe version, or the Prophets displaced and empowered it, or an Iconian Trojan horse, or... Personally, I don't care one way or the other, never liked any version of the Constitution myself - too old and dated for my tastes. For those who want…
  • In a real world, this argument makes sense, but we're not in the real world. This argument is already invalidated by existing game content. NX class taking out an entire fleet of "modern" warships barely getting scratched - years back BEFORE today's massive power creep mad dash: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMAL4PaJsSQ…
  • Or the hobby has just evolved/devolved/morphed into something that's no longer interesting, and there are plenty of other ways to kill time. Not all "I quits" are hostile.
  • Can I side with whomever is trying to destroy it?
  • According to zeroniusrex on Reddit, no, though she states she may have to wait until after Germany to 100% confirm that. It's just over halfway down this page: https://reddit.com/r/sto/comments/4j187p/star_trek_online_coming_to_xbox_one_and_ps4/
  • I know, but I was just pointing out that being able to read German doesn't give you any advantage in finding out what "the announcement" is since there's no info there. Could be that every player is getting $1 million dropped into their bank accounts as a thank you as easily as the servers are being shut down and the…
  • My German isn't perfect, but there's literally nothing in those posts about "the announcement" other than a single sentence stating no one knows what it is. The rest of the posts are 1) descriptions of FedCon and its history - which I knew nothing about - and 2) schedule of what Cryptic will be doing. Sounds like there…
  • Edit: Doesn't like Youtube videos? Well, then: https://youtu.be/3flv5nWZgII
  • Since I don't see this explicitly noted in any of the threads, it appears that actual rarity is not impacted, just actual item delivered. Examples: - Experimental Torpedo Upgrades showed a blue plasma torpedo result -> delivered blue chroniton torpedo on collection - Exchange Prisoners with the Dominion showed a purple…
  • I recognize the attempt, but ultimately I don't think this small reduction is the real solution. I will flatly state that I don't believe there should be a cost for this, but some of the options for "free once every X hours/days" would probably work as well. I doubt very much you'll commit all points to make a build that…
  • Let's see if this works. Apologies on the poor quality, but you just need to hear Q speak anyway. Q explaining exploration from "All Good Things"
  • I'm going to laugh if everyone finally gets their T6 Constitution class - maybe even the 1701 herself - as an Admiralty ship.
  • Play nice, you don't have to be insulting to point out a less than stellar idea. Every ship designer starts somewhere - you should see some of the early drafts of actual ST ships that would make you cringe. That said, I will agree with the general agreement that these probably wouldn't look that great. Very rarely does…
  • I just gave up and created a Dr. Doom inspired character as my main one. Makes much more logical sense playing through the content.
  • I have a love-hate relationship with these systems, myself. I don't really find them fun, but they do give resources that several of my characters would never get access to, and that's helping me a lot with buying the things I want. A huge quality of life improvement that I think would help make duty officers at least…
