I will not ***** at all. Nor smack talk. But I will post one simple question / sentence.

If I am willing to shell out 560 USD for Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS and 60 USD for DCS A-10C game/sim.
What is cryptic doing to ensure that money?

.. and all I wanted was a normal PvP because i gave up on PvE the moment I did 5 missions ..

    I'm not quite sure what what that was supposed to mean.
    However, the fact that you gave up on PvE is not the fault of Cryptic; STO is by no means the best PvP game in the world, so don't expect too much from it. PvE has been greatly improved since launch with the release of the feature episodes, so don't judge an entire section of the game by the first few missions you play.

    The lowest level missions are generally the worst - they were created first before they knew how to do good missions - though they are going back and remastering them.

    The good missions generally start once you leave the Sirius Block after your first 10 levels which are basically an extended tutorial.

    I'm not sure I understand what you're saying.
    You bought a fancy gamecontroller and a flight sim game, and are asking what cryptic is doing for you to get the most out of that?

    It sounds like cryptic already got your money, to me. :p

    He has 7 characters in Virginia. That makes sense because lots of Feds live in Virginia, it being just across the river from DC. But the real question is, what are Klingons doing in Virginia? Hmmmm, this bears investigating.

    Translation: Hi I don't play STO, all that often right now, but I would like to complain how Cryptic has done nothing to help my gameplay in another game developed by another company


    Or at least that's how I read this
