  • Anyone else just as disappointed with the new patrol escort, star cruiser, and deep space science vessel as I am? I take one look at the info posts and just shake my head in disappointment.
  • I take one look at this bundle, and I see so many things wrong, imo, with it that I don't even know where to start. I guess starting with the ships themselves is as good of a place to start as any. Even if these were available separately, I don't even know if I'd entertain picking them up. As someone who's used these ships…
  • Cranking the renderscale up is about as closes as I think you'd be able to get to stress testing with STO. I can get to rendersdcale 6 with a 6900XT at 5120x1440 before the game crashes. I think it's over a certain resolution that the game can't handle. At renderscale 5, I play the game still. But long story short, STO,…
  • *walks in* *walks out* :P
  • I've got a soft spot for the Enterprise-C as my second favorite Trek Enterprise, but the Connie Refit will always be my favorite. Though if we're talkin' non-fictional, OV-101 for me hands down. Wouldn't be where I am today without the inspiration that stemmed from her and her sisters.
  • I should clarify a bit on this. This has been with identical PC hardware, spare for my boot drives off of an MSI laptop. Drivers are up-to-date across the board for both OS's. To try and pinpoint what was going on, I did an install of STO via an independent launcher to a 128GB flash drive. Under Windows 8.1, I can patch…
  • I'm not docking people for choosing what they want to use, but the OS requirement change lines up with which versions of DirectX are supported as well as EOL support for the older OS's. In going to newer versions of DirectX, that's a bit of a driving force behind that change. Windows 7 and earlier don't support the newer…
  • > @garaffe said: > Have you tried the Disintegrator with an EBC, say from the Temer class? Give me a day and I can take a look and see. I can check that later tonight/tomorrow morning in a patrol with my fleet b'rel if no one has an answer by then.
  • > @senshibat01 said: > bur u can make a 3d cookie cutter https://youtu.be/nvcO2Pavwdo One of the many reasons why I want a 3D printer of my own at some point.
  • My main complaint with Synthwave is actually the background music. Yeah, I get why they used what they did, but it gives me a splitting headache listening to it for any considerable amount of time. Only audio track in the game that does that to me. I know it's possible to swap the audio out on my local copy. Just haven't…
  • > @senshibat01 said: > we got a new SteelSeries kb We have Steelseries stuff we use at work. All the mice and keyboards in the support center we work out of is Steelseries. Have thought about giving their stuff a try when the Corsair stuff I have goes belly up considering the problems I had with some of their stuff jver…

  • > @lianthelia said: > People buying the D7 on the other hand is a given...so no need for them to buff anything. Besides they very rarely (actually have they ever?) go back and rebalance something they nerfed into the dust...when it's nerfed to death it's left for useless never to return. Science, at least I felt like it…
  • Just curious, but are you able to use the Logitech software to map keyboard or mouse keys to the throttle control? Haven't used a Logitech controller in almost a decade but do remember there used to be software to remap buttons.
  • Those were way sweeter than they needed to be, though
  • y'all'd be surprised what some of the common vendor BOff manuals go for. Just because people are lazy
  • At a base price, this might be a good deal. As the sale price for the 6 and fluff that most don't want, as many have echoed, I don't feel like this is. The T6 coupons are usually on sale when they run those, and same with T6 ships. If this were, say, run at 19,000 ZEN with the 25%-30% off, then I think there would be fewer…
  • As much as the Ambassador class is a solid favorite of mine, the loadout and stats on this one are a very unfortunate hard pass for me. As with the rest of this pack, nothing about it screams "Legendary" to me. This only cements my view that this is a passable bundle. The Excelsior, least for how I play the game, is on par…
  • When in doubt, always assume that they're always the base line with no added benefit whatsoever. If they were promo packs, odds would probably be the same as the others.
  • The additional 500 Lobi being added to this kinda feels like salt in the wound. Interesting move, but still in no way warrants the price. If they think adding 500 Lobi to this while maintaining the price point is a great idea, I believe they're seriously mistaken, in my opinion. All this does is make me not want to…
  • This rings of "Delta Rising is the best expansion ever and the players love it!" lol All joking aside, yeah. To have me remotely considering this, it would have to be priced according to the bar set by last year's pack with the discount those were always sold at bring those to around $20USD a pop. I'd honestly be fine with…
  • Less mega media room and more of his living room, lol
  • Thanks for digging that up and linking me to that! That does, however, cycle back to the point of actually needing that documented somewhere other than 2.5 year old patch notes that is the case. I don't think most people if they weren't around at that time for one reason or another (i.e. I had just moved, had a ton of…
  • I'd be a little more interested this if, say, the Bird-of-Prey wasn't just B'Rel variants. There's a ton of Bird-of-Prey variants that were available for tiers 1-4, why not actually try and reintroduce those with this? Yeah, I know they're technically different ship models across the different tiers, but still. There were…
  • > @"foppotee#4552" said: > Usually, even in these unusual times, if Cryptic's Ten Forward Weekly livestream on Twitch is scheduled the few days before a ship, expansion, pack, or bundle release they show-off the goods while discussing them sometimes including insights about what you asked.

  • I really don't know who's bright idea it was to make the inventory minimum window be 10 columns wide, but it needs to be reverted. Looks like a bloated whale and out of place. Also not friendly to people with smaller resolution monitors. Like, seriously guys? Not everyone uses or has a 1080p or larger monitor. All that…
  • That is awesome! Again, many thanks for taking the time to do this! Gonna see what I can find for printing services in my area and see about getting that done up for something to hang up.
  • Their women's team, I'm pretty sure, would kick their men's team's butt. They've been awesome the last couple of years.
  • I *think* CEST is UTC+2, least that's what I'm seeing on for time zone stuff. ET is UTC-4 right now so, 2pm ET, for 6 hours behind, if I'm mathing and doing times right.
