    And this is precisely why getting rid of free ship tokens before the new economy take effect was a *horrible* idea. Though, I can't say I am totally shocked by the lack of forethought.

    Personally I really think they should keep the ship tokens as they were originally. What's going to happen now, is that a lot of players are going to save the Dilithium by holding onto their current ship for longer.

    Retaining the tokens means they still get new ships but don't need Dilithium.. this won't be an issue if the ship is valued at zero if brought with a token.

    Whatever the patch corrected apparantly did not correct the Azura.

    Ship tokens kinda TRIBBLE you if you don't use then. if you don't use them you can't get the next tier promotion. eg. don’t use at Comm. unless you use it you can't get your Capt. promotion perks or ship token

    Next, ESD load times need to be handled. It's only going to get worse when you add Gold members who have priority.

    If you can get lift the 15 min logout limit when someone is on a loading screen, that would probably help.

    First, why wouldn't you use them? I'm honestly asking here. Even if I didn't want the next tier ship, I bought it just to clear the token - for example, the Tier 3 science ship. I hate the looks of it, so I buy one, decomission it, (after stripping it for parts) and buy a Nebula-class. Seems like a non-issue to me.

    Second, perhaps instead of a token for a ship, a discount is applied? Or hell, just fix the dilithium Quinn gives you - for example, at Lieutenant Commander you get enough to buy a new ship, but at Commander you need to have more, and I'm given to understand that it gets worse as you rank up. Forget trying to buy any of what was the exploration gear.

    Aye, wtf were they thinking, how could something like this not be picked up beforehand? :rolleyes:

    ^ I am starting to believe it is an intended change. They want you to do the alternate means of making up the difference - only issue is exploration etc is not handing out dilithium at this time to make it work.

    all merit rewards are supposed to be dilithium too aswell as pvp, so just wait for that to come and i think the lack of dili will be a minor issue (u'll have to do explo missions maybe 3-4 times / rank)

    I might be willing to come to try again for testing once the bugs I am experiencing are dealt with so I can actually play. I will know this when I see a 50 page release note showing all the bugs that have been fixed. LOL

    TO all Devs thx for allowing us to enjoy this F2P server. The duty officer has been helpful in sapce and ground combat. I'm following the Diplomatic route becasue I enjoy bringing different parties to one common agreement that all can benefit from when compremizing. Leveling up is no problem. I've tried and tried to get the PvP'ers over on holodeck to play on F2P. Their lost and our gain (knowledge) when F2P comes on line. I'm curious, what happens to the toon we created in F2P test server? Will he/she be moved on over to Holodeck? Or will Holodeck move on over to F2P? Those are questions we are asking.

    Thanks Devs

    I'm not a dev, but I can answer those questions.

    Characters created on Tribble stay on Tribble, period. They may get deleted if it's deemed necessary by the devs, and/or they want to ensure we're testing something from the start of the game (like they are now).

    When Free-to-Play hits Holodeck. your Holodeck characters will remain available - I think the most direct change to them will be graphical changes and the economic changes - badges/marks becoming dilithium, for example.

    When you make LTC1 you get a stipend of 70K from Admirla Quinn to buy your new ship.
