Slipstream Drive

kaaahhhhhnnnnnkaaahhhhhnnnnn Member Posts: 0 Arc User
I did a full tour of the Universe today to get the well travelled perk and discovered another unannounced change. The slipstream drive no longer stays active between Sectors. This is quite a problem as in doing the full tour there are very few spaces that you can use a full slipstream charge.

So was this intentional or an accident?

    Regardless, it makes no sense RP wise to turn it off once you go into the next sector block. What, the quantum slip stream just malfunctioned because I had to switch maps? Makes no sense, sorry. Fix this ASAP Cryptic, especially considering that you want to go to a full map and this sort of TRIBBLE wouldn't happen on a full map.

    Half the time you're pointed the wrong way anyway, and have to turn off SS just to get turned around.

    Yeah, this is embarrassing. I can cut through two sector blocks on a full charge, but it stops me halfway though. Changing to a master map would solve this in an instant.

    I reported this on the Tribble bug forum a while ago:
    http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?p=9201291

    Another bug is that full-impulse-toggle quantum slipstream breaks autopilot.

    I can't turn it off from the icon above the throttle slider, I MUST use the tray icon.

    ...And whats the story with some warp cores claim it reduces slipstream cooldown by 100% ?

    It's basically the Omega engine slipstream cooldown bonus placed on a warp core. It still doesn't do anything to my knowledge, since slipstream's GCD is the same as it's base CD.

    LOL, the omega cooldown has always been broken.
