i thinks this is a bug but its still a problem. how am i going to get a cmdr ship with 80,000 dilithium when its 100,000? i can understand u want us to work for it but by the time i get enough of it ill probably have to get a captain ship and still i wont have enough dilithium for that. please give us the correct amount of dilithium for the ships it is frustrating.

    Its not a bug, it is intentional. The idea is we earn dilithium for every misson which should make up the shortfall.
    This was told by a dev in the TTS chat. Not all the dlithium system is on tribble which is why we have got the shortfall ;)

    then they need to implement a way to bypass the short fall till the system is completely in place.

    if this is not fixed before launch it will fail, Star Trek gamers will not put up with this for long and there will be no long term commitment from the gaming community with a model like this.

    I like the concept of Dilithium, but seriously 20,000 for a freaking consol?!?

    either make things cheaper and give us enough dilithium at lvl up to get the ship we should be in, or just bring back ship tokens, and make it so we can purchase other ships if we like, cuz that is why we play, its to pilot a STAR SHIP!

    this should take first priority, or we are all in for an epic FAIL!

    This doen't help when we don't get any dilithium other then from a few dailies and said before, you'll end up captain before you get enough to get the Commander ship.

    People need to take a chill pill. This is beta testing. They have also said they are rolling out things to be tested in stages. Just go with the flow and see how things unfold. The issue with promotion and dilithium will be resolved in the next patch I suspect. Once you start getting Dilithium via missions, the shortfall is disappear. Just calm down, already.

    I rolled LC escort to Admiral lower. Then I bought the captain escort which I am still in at VA. Tested infected both space and ground. Waiting for the dilithium update, but basically done with the test server.

    I understand the beta testing but so much is not working so the system is incomplete. And since it is incomplete it can't be properly tested.

    You are correct sir. In its current state there should be multiple patches every week to tweak it.

    Well it might work out if we get dilithium from everything.

    But I just needed to post. I can't get past "Saturday's Child" with my LC ship. Just not enough firepower against the D'drex class ships. But Com 9 works. Just have to do replays to get to the next level.
