HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
ROFL
Epic...
There ate two test servers, tribble and red shirt. Tribble is the FTP server and red shirt is the normal test server. This is for tribble, therefore the FTP shard.
Or did They slow Us down and I didn't notice??
I'm beginning to feel like They are just throwin' Us, an old chewed-on bone, with each passing week...
Just to keep Us quiet on the weekends...,
...while They are off vacationing at some fancy rest-home.
Building up the energy to deal with Us for another week.
:eek:
Incidentally, any chance the spending of those skill points could be enabled again in a mini-patch soon?
Yeah I would rather this have been on holodeck then tribble... who needs xp on tribble anyway?
Yes after 7 weeks of testing, do something for holodeck.
Speak for yourself - with my available play hours I'll be lucky to get to tier 2 commendation, let alone 3.
No i speak on behalf of a lot of players who arent wasting time on tribble anymore because next month it all goes live, whats the point of trying to achieve more when time has run out, if you still have a lot of work to do, then thats your own fault for leaving it too late.. good luck and have fun wasting your time while my emblem collections for all my alts go sky high in holo, which is what counts now, not tribble......:cool:
Hey Buddy, if it made sense rest assured that they wouldn't do it! LOL
Well, I know that statement is going to cost me some dilithium...NOoooo!
Remember grinding through a game just to end up playing to pay, and to pay to win is fun fun fun.
As the game requires you to grind more and more, it takes away from the family and friends. It helps you to reprioritize your life incorrectly so that you lose your real life in favor of a f2p online game. You lose your wife (or girl friend, mistress, paid prostitute, etc.) and your 2.5 kids. You lose your friends and family, except those other sad losers ingame that put the game first now due to the necessity of the grind. You may even lose your job and your grip with reality. All because of the almighty dilithium. Congrats Cryptic, you made this game a drag for us normal gaming folk, and turned it into a game just for those 24/7 mmo addicted gamers who get their living by leeching off their parents; even though they're in their 30's and 40's. Or they make their living off of the broken welfare system, my tax dollar... or dilithium, lol.
if u double emblems why not dilithium??
Getting an answer for this question would be very welcome.
Unless I am mistaken, I think you have till Dec 1st for the tribble rewards.
sweet, tnx.
Not a prob, be sure to get on there this weekend if you can to take advantage of the Q event and feel free to leave feedback on the changes in the tribble forums and all that good stuff.
Have a pleasent weekend all.
Heheh, gave me a chuckle, although they probably need players testing the high end of the game so it's not a bad idea altogether.
I think its their way of drawing people to test out tribble precisely because most of us have done EVERYTHING there already. They need fresh blood. So to all those people with a Thanksgiving Holiday coming up, the notion of cutting the time it takes in half really makes the opportunity a lot more possible, and therefore gets them to test the upcoming changes... in other words they're getting people to test who might not have felt it as possible otherwise. (Since they will receive the same rewards).
However, truth be told not every Holodeck player started anew or copied over to Tribble immediately. Maybe those who haven't yet tested will make an appearance over the weekend? Perhaps from the number of player's who never frequent these forums? How could that possibly be a bad thing for us? Seems to me that Cryptic is offering incentive to test further what is now on Tribble. More testers equal more data equals better transition to Holodeck in December. At least one would hope so.
The Q XP boost does offer the casual player/beta tester opportunity to catch the rewards which carry over to Holodeck later. I can't fault Cryptic for encouraging more player's to make the effort.
