Stephen talks about the special December promotions we are having to celebrate the launch of Season 5 in this entry of the Season 5 News Dev Blog series.
Hmm. Summarizing things that are posted on the forums I can understand, as not everyone reads the forums. But just summarizing things that are already posted on the web site? Um. Ok =P
Yay: I'm pleasently suprised about the Veteran Bridge Officer, now I have a kick-*** First Officer! . And I like that people are curious about Season 5 and log in to see what's going on. Also with Dstahl in head of Foundry, it's a good sign that it'll be improved soon. Fleet mates and me are going to play some of the jewels that came out of the foundry.
B-U-T: You have failed to fix yet the bridge officer clone bug ! ! ! ! ! !
I bought the Constitution class already. Why is the Klingon ship a new release and the Federation ship one we've had a long time to buy. Wouldn't it have been better to create 2 new ships and just make them free for the first month?

Seconded, I got the Connie with my preorder with gamestop way back when.
K, this is my first big complain about STO. I understood the tough times you went through, the changes and so on. But to don't anticipate that all the players after allmost an year of no content to log on, that I don't understand. Big lag, when I zone into a social map, ESD, DS9, I wait for 10 mins to get there, ( when I finally beam in I get the 10 min idle message :mad:).
That's no fun at all guys, really.
For the Klingons, they get a new ship for free, but the Federation ship is one that has been out since the start and a lot of Federation players already have it. Way to go, Cryptic.

And I for one am very happy that FINALLY the Klingons get something nice that the Federation doesn't ALREADY have.

^ This !!!!!!
I hate the TOS ship anyway...I thought Cryptic was going to give us almosy any two ships...but an old, stupid TOS ship that CBS didn't want in STO in the first place.....man I feel thanked for giving cash to this horrid Season.
If Cryptic gave away a thousand Cpoints as a Christmas present, people would still complain. :rolleyes:
At any rate, thanks cryptic, Season 5 has a truly massive increase in overall functionality, even if the lack of 'new content' people are complaining about does have a minor basis in reality. So thank you for all the hard work.

Of course they would. 1000 C-Points wouldnt even pay for one Vice Admiral ship.
Same here. The other thing that is really annoying me is that damn STF timer.
I am totaly with you, with all of these changes for crptic to make a prifit, I am not only bord, but I am also kind of sorry I have a lifetime to a game that seems to ignor those of us that have spent thousands on the game. Between what I have bought for myself and for fleet mates. The exchange rate for dilithium was a joke 400 emblems and a about 500000 in mertis and a bunch of bages and I got 432,963 in dilithium. Crafting is a joke, spend time farming, make the schmatics and ow yea spend ur dilitium on some new thing needed to craft. My last mk 11 took 24 of the common and about 11 of the uncommon new thing on top of the mats..yea that was worth it..blah . I know they need to make money, but giving us a small amount of dilithium every 30 days then raising the price of every thing; really? Pay more to get less..this is like a bad tmobile commercial.. listen I have already seen how while beta for swtor is going how this game empties out, the game is hot, but the space comat bites, so sto don't worry people are still going to play. I for one am out for good if they do not take care of the paying customers..in any other situation when u pay for a service you are a valude customer, here it's kind of going in the direction of, well you all that have been here paying our bills can leave we are only concerned with the players we expect to bring in. News flash guilds float from game to game together and I lead 3 fleets, the 52nd Vangaurd 457 players, warriors of Tenzong 278 players, TWnd Elite Maquies 110 players not counting alts. Ow and stop favoring people just because they have a show. I joined the stonewall fleets, all 3 and they do not have over 1,500... they have beween all of them about 800. People are not stupid nor do we like favortizum..
So yes totaly un happy, and will spend my money ells where until they start treating the supporting players and fleets that have been here all along as valude members and I will be joing the other durring the walk out on sto on the 20th..
To keep us cryptic all you have to do is treat us with value and respect, the llife timers will still affect you, because we buy _ store points and a lot of them...
Hope the 'Winter Holiday Event' is fun because I am really bored right now
Definitely this! ^^^ Season 5 sure did suck the fun out of anything left in STO that I enjoyed. Now we have broken STF's, broken audio, everything is BoP, lag in some of the busier places, broken fleet logos, boring grinds, an entire wall on Qo'noS that you can walk right through and fall off the map. Do I need to continue?

Not very massive, and here is the reality: increased functionality means absolutely nothing without increased content. What will people do with that functionality? Nothing. Just like ships aren't any good, and therefore will not be purchased anywhere near in the numbers they could be, without something to actually do with them.
The point is, bad decisions are being made and sooner or later its us that are going to have to pay the price for it

You forgot the dimished returns that killed about half our emblems in the conversions and the current tax on a TRIBBLE load of stuff via dilithium.

I've just started my second Klingon toon (4 on the fed side), and I'm here to tell you they deserve everything they get because they have about 18% of what the Feds have.

Yeah that whole giving the KDF some new stuff after 2 years of waiting is such a pain in the feds ***. Damn those Devs for not asking the feds permission first.

Yeah I was fooled by buying the sao paulo skin, but I am a fan of the defiant. I say skin because we all know the quad cannon is weak.
Well, you would. He just put a santa hat on yours.
