Does this mean that the Skills needed to improve Carrier pet proformance are returning to their power tooltips?
Please tell me you're joking here?
Are you serious?
Thanks zero, I could kiss you......:o
Seriously? It wasnt bad enough you gave pets the ability to spam tractor beam? now your making it MORE POWERFULL? Do u even consider the implications of things like this? 8 of these things throwing out tractor beams was already bad enough, but now there even better at it? Sometimes i really don't think any of you at cryptic play your own game....
I haven't gotten a chance to test it yet but couldn't that just mean they fixed it so it doesn't get spammed so much?
Lololololololol.
ARE YOU ****ING KIDDING ME
MK xi and MK xii armor bug fixed yet ?
are ****ing kidding me? We are complaing about the pets with tractor beam since the first day the went out, and now u improve them? Come to a pvp match and try to play with 5 tractors beams stacked on you all the time.
I'm really starting to belive that u guys are making fun of us...
Hoo.. epic Cryptic.. just epic, this just show how much you love your game.
you do realize that this is completely uneeded.... the runabouts are bad enough as it is now.... who thought buffing them is a good idea?
can i talk to your supervisor about how unhappy some of the player base is because of needless changes like this?
And you guys wonder why PvP is in such a sad state in this game ....
Careful I hear kissing Zero could turn you into a orion slave!!
just a thought.
if may be improved graphics. it may be improved range. it may be improvement to how it cycles its skills. we wont know until we see it in action, or a dev posts what the change actually was so let's all calm down.
Sorry for the confusion!
Hoo.. good, what a relief. So the green/uncommon are just overpower and the blue/rare are extremely overpower.
a single runabout can stop you dead 90% as well as any player ship can, regardless of points in dampners, and you face 6 of them from 1 hanger. blow them up and the carrier just launches more with TB fresh and ready to use on you again.
whoever the carrier hates at that moment he can shutdown with tracter beams with at least 75% up time, and that's if the victim has PH and APO. a cruiser with 2 copies of faw can hold back the tide, but any ship that uses narrow arc weapons is rendered helpless and useless.
now in a 5v5 match the most you can expect of tractor beams or nearly as annoying chrono procs is 1 copy per 5 opponents. if one of those opponents is a thrice damned fed carrier with 1 bay of runabouts, you have more then doubled the amount of tractor beams and crono procs, AND phaser procs that team has. is it clear why these things are a cancer yet?
The only thing left to hope for is another studio to make startrek that has a larger budget and has a staff to in-game tests including pvp.
The clarification just confirms what we were worried about, you're making an already OP pet worse for the pvp community.
Here's a couple of serious questions, feel free to pass it up the chain if necessary:
Who's looking out for PVP balance in STO at Cryptic?
Is it even really a concern/priority at all?
Because it honestly feels like the answer to those questions are "No-one" and "No".
The eternal problem between people who understand the game, and ppl who don't.
What more good do u need for PvE? i can do any STF elite in a tier3 ship without any problem, space PvE is VERY easy, what else do u need?
By the other hand, this danubes are totaly game breaking for PvP, and i'm not just saying "oh this is OP", IS GAME BREAKING
Even if it really isn't, I hope the Devs are aware this is how some of us feel....
It's starting to grief us in normal gameplay..... very glad I don't PvP seriously anymore...
looking forward to that one hitting holo asap, thats the only issue I have with the ui atm, glad to see its already fixed on tribble.
If I didn't know any better I'd say some folks at Cryptic are just a little on the "thick" side. Either that or they're illiterate and haven't been able to read the angry posts about the existing TB's on those horrible little runabouts.
Why don't some of you Dev's come into a PvP match once and awhile and experience first hand the kind of b.s. you've been putting into this game, I'm willing to bet you find find your game fun anymore either.
was anoying in STF's
so you can drag Boff powers down to tray
For serious? I swear, watching the systems team at work is like watching a train wreck coming together :mad:
"Fun for absolutely no one" makes for a horrible game.
