  • Interesting. I am a navy vet. Every command in the navy, whether a training command, an air base, an air wing, or a ship, has its own insignia, but that is not incorporated into most, if any, uniforms. We might have sewn a ship patch on our work coveralls, and when out to sea we could wear a lot of stuff that we would not…
  • Who am I to tell them when their events start? Besides, "most" things are not "all things" so there is room for misunderstanding anyway. They are the ones that should know when they are going to start and end things, and when they realize that they are in error they should post a correction.
  • Did you see Commodore Decker's badge? He was the CO of the Constellation. https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/memoryalpha/images/a/aa/Matt_Decker_on_the_Bridge.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20230315065233&path-prefix=en That is not the insignia used by the Enterprise. How about Captain Tracey from the Exeter?…
  • The most obvious "Tholian Trouble" seems to be that there is no way to partake in the promised activities. I logged in, I saw no way to join in the event, I logged out. Then I decided to double-check, and yeah, it said March 13th, so I logged back in and checked again. Nope, still no way to join. Little things like getting…
  • Well, I guess these Mirror Borg are supposed to be the most powerful Borg yet, but it is my understanding that Voyager nerfed the Borg as part of the threat-creep that I understand existed. I did not watch Voyager, that is just a commonly shared opinion that I have heard. You know... Writer 1: "We need a new big bad. Some…
  • It isn't history. We are not there. We are in a simulation fighting simulated Borg, Being able to actually overcome the enemy wouldn't change history any more than rescuing or not rescuing some of those escape pods will. Want us to learn something? Let us see what sort of tactics and firepower would have been necessary to…
  • It is a simulation. We are not travelling back in time to fight the Borg at Wolf 359, we are in a simulation of the battle of Wolf 359. That, to me, takes away from whatever "stakes" I might try to imagine. It is the equivalent of me, when I was in the Navy, playing some WW II game with some of my shipmates. No matter how…
  • The first T6 ship I went out of my way to get was a group: The T6 Command Battlecruisers. Concorde, Geneva, and Presidio classes. I liked that they looked close enough to a "classic" design, so I bought the bundle and Frankensteined some appearances that I liked. Then I bought the Temporal bundle because I liked the…
  • Especially when they behave like idiots.
  • Just for caution, though I am only guessing, here...
  • It really is a matter of personal preference. I have a Gorn that I made for the Klingon event that I don't play much, but I was thinking that maybe I would get them a Gorn ship. I haven't really liked any of the Klingon ships that he has, and my Fed main has plenty of ships to choose from, including a TOS Connie that I…
  • They couldn't cut in "half". I didn't put a stopwatch to it so I don't know exactly how long it was or what the true halfway point was, but I think everyone that played it has an idea of "halfway". But this episode is all we get for a while. It is how it is with any new episodes. They could not stop the episode when... The…
  • I want them all. If they can roll a couple of them together and create a longer mission but want to cut out some random mobs to trim the playtime? Okay. But I am talking about cutting mobs, not actual story content. As far as J'ula? Don't care. I do, however, think that a mention is enough. She doesn't need to be in the…
  • Hey, look at the bright side... Saturday's Child, The Kuvah'magh, The Ultmate Klingon, and many more were removed and never seen again in any availability. At least I can still play Spectres or the Breen arc, even if it takes some extra effort on my part to do so.
  • Unfortunately for me, I was moving. It was two weeks between the time I moved into my new house and the time the cable company could come and hook up my internet, which they finally did earlier today, so no anniversary goodies for me. At least (I think) I still have time to get the ship, though I'll not use it once I get…
  • I don't know... Sometimes I just like to mix things up. A change-of-pace with set bonuses and the like. I am not a min-maxer, so sometimes I just want to play around with some different stuff. And yes, of course, a set-up for the borg. For endeavors I usually just switch the non-set weapon to that damage type, but I guess…
  • Who is to say it should? But how is this system "too much in favor" of someone like me that has been here off-and-on since launch? Yeah, I have accumulated some endeavor points. And? How does that give me an advantage over you? I do not PvP so that is certainly out. In TFOs whatever benefits I have earned are to the…
  • This. Maybe when they get all the bugs worked out of ship builds, but I would hate to have my Captain have all of their buttons rearranged and traits come up missing every time I switched from the MACO loadout to the Terran loadout or whatever. I do what Rattler2 suggested: I keep a few extras in my inventory and equip all…
  • I fly every ship I get, get to rank 5 to unlock the trait, and then go back to whatever... I flew a Geneva command cruiser for a long time, then switched to a Kelvin Enterprise when I finally decided that I had the one Captain that I was going to be satisfied with forever, and when I completed the event campaign I went…
  • Yes, you can buy Zen using dilithium, or vice-versa. Open your inventory. Go to the assets tab. In the dilithium section you will see an "Exchange" button. Alternately, you can open the dilithium store by clicking the button beneath the minimap. Once there, in the bottom left corner, there is a "Buy Dilithium" button. They…
  • Okay, but that is the difference between buying Zen and selling Zen. The greater demand is for Zen over dilithium. That is why there is a backlog on orders. You want to spend money for Zen? Good for you. A lot of people do. It doesn't mean that people don't use the exchange or *also* use the exchange in addition to buying…
  • While I wouldn't call it a "cheat", per se, I do generally agree with this. Leave the charm out of the winter event. Or maybe allow me to use my floater to fly above the ice as I race. To me it's the same principle. Let people earn and use winter items in the winter event and that is it. Let people earn and use summer…
  • Yeah, I mentioned Beyond the Nexus for officers, but no ships there. Not as many officers, but to avoid what comes after the ship combat in Red Shift I think that it's worth it to me. In addition to avoiding the dialog in Red Shift, it has rewards that you can use in multiple or sell for extra credits at the end. So, fight…
  • Ah, okay. I didn't think about those. I'll see if they add to the count. Thank you. ============= Edit: Or maybe I blocked it out of my memory. The horror. The dialog is both terrible and omni-present. Tilly going around calling everyone nerds. This is supposed to be funny? And the writers had the audacity to have her…
  • Just speaking for myself I like what I like. The "weird" ships are just for me unlocking tier 5 traits and having options on whatever consoles they may have. But I am still for options. Someone doesn't like the winter event ship? I don't see the harm in giving them a 50% C-Store ship coupon as an option. They can get the…
  • Klingons started out as the "PvP faction" and people hated it. And they simply can not dedicate time to developing a lot of exclusive content. Everyone needs to play the same stuff. There won't be a Mirror-Universe (or any other) faction that exists only to PvP against everyone else. A Mirror-Universe faction that exists…
  • I wouldn't mind some options. Options are generally good. Maybe a 50% off ship coupon? That could put money into the C-store while also helping to incentivize players to spend that money. Someone hates the look of this or that ship so they buy themselves a different one. And yes, a quantity of Lobi would be okay. 200 seems…
  • First? OP has been explained. It is original post or original poster. There is no slight here. Being called the OP is not in any way an insult, so don't take it that way. As to the question at hand, why? Why limit it to just those species? Are Remans not as worthy? Ferengi? Orions? Andorians? Those are all species with a…
  • I ended up picking the Temporal light cruiser. Like I said, the TOS is ultimately why I am here. I had to follow my heart.
  • I know that I can fly whatever, and that a superior build on one ship can out-perform a bad build on an otherwise superior ship, I was just wondering if I was missing anything here. Apparently not. So mechanically the MW cruiser is superior. The Tempral cruiser has a couple of things that work in its favor, but that's it.…
