In Season 9, all the weapons now will be modified for all players and NPC's to fire foam rubber balls or darts. That way no one can get damaged in this game.
But then, the recursive nerf will need to be nerfed again. Can this be the replacement for No Win Scenerio once power creep reaches the stage that NWS is as easy as ISE?
Control the nerfs enough to prevent the nerf from getting to be too buff...
Detecting big-time "anti-old-school" bias here. NX? Lobi. TOS/TMP Connie? Super-promotion-box. (aka the two hardest ways to get ships) Excelsior & all 3 TNG "big hero" ships? C-Store. Please Equalize...

Its kinda become my catchphrase in the game. If you ever seen me in some channels I subscribe to, im always saying something is OP, plz nerf.
Its actually a joke based on forum threads.
Why in STO are we not allowed to fail? Why is the game so ridiculously easy?
Power creep?
DPS channels?
Overpowered ships?
Stacking XYZ into 123?
No, I tell you why the game is so ridiculously easy, readers.
Its because of X is OP, plz nerf.
Every time we run into something that kills us, OMGAHD IT MUST BE HAX, NERF IT NAO I MAY NOT DIE!!
Vaper shoots you with beamoverload 3 and pops your cruiser because you didnt react fast enough with a counter or were sitting still.
BO is OP, plz nerf.
Borg shoots you with a shield facing down because you arent redistributing shields...
BORG ARE OP, PLZ NERF
Crystalline entity spawns help and demolishes your whole team over and over, making it unplayable, while others complete it just fine by using science powers.
ENTITY IS OP, PLZ NERF.
There are less than five things in the whole game total that are still failable (the 4 ground STFs and No Win Scenario) for even a PUG group. At worst someone might fail a space optional or get bugged lances in Hive Space otherwise. You cannot fail anything because X is OP, plz nerf.
Devs, stop listening to X is OP, plz nerf. Please?
for one or two of those reasons in that quote of rubbish there is ultimately good reasons for the changes.
the romulan republic homeworld defense from the elachi attack that needed to be nerfed to be user friendly. it was not even soloable unless you were really crafty with the system and knew the weaknesses. doesnt matter how you like or hate it, it needed that nerf.
the CE didnt get a nerf per se, it was upgraded. the old map was full of issues and bugs that made almost nigh impossible for anyone except those who knew what they were doing. random groups with people not reading the chat about mine spam and FAW or getting too close. i mean it was frankly ridiculous about 95% of the time.
sometimes there are leigitimate reasons for a nerf and spitting your dummy over the side doesnt change anything.
T6 Miranda Hero Ship FTW. Been around since Dec 2010 on STO and bought LTS in Apr 2013 for STO.
That's quite the paradox, how could you nerf nerf when the nerf is nerfed. But how would the nerf be nerfed when the nerf is nerfed? This allows the nerf not to be nerfed since the nerf is nerfed? But if the nerf isn't nerfed, it could still nerf nerfs. But as soon as the nerf is nerfed, the nerf power is lost. So paradoxally it the nerf nerf lost its nerf, while it's still nerfed, which cannot be because the nerf was unable to nerf.
Edit: More seriously, I would really like Infected ground elite to be nerfed a little. I mean, it is effectively impossible to complete as-is. I have purple mk 12 armor and shields, purple mk 12 lirpa, and the Dyson rifle on my Romulan, and I have literally never won Infected ground elite. Tier 5 rom and dyson rep, t3 borg and nukara, and I literally lose every single time.
Same toon in Cure Applied has literally never even died in it. I've played IGE about 100 times, and CAE about 25 times.
Even Into the Hive elite is easier than Infected ground elite, which makes no sense because Into the Hive is supposed to be the ultimate borg ground mission.
I think part of the problem is the aggro; the Borg drones will aggro from a ridiculous range at players who are not shooting; versus TV and movie Borg, who will usually ignore you until you shoot. I can't handle plasma shots from three directions from tac drones, and I don't think anyone else can, either.
I just want the elite and heavy tac drones in IGE to be replaced with regular tac drones, and the tac drones to be replaced with regular drones. That would likely make IGE playable.
If anybody here knows how to actually win IGE, please enlighten me.

Honestly, you should probably take a hard look at the people you're playing with. Join one of the chat channels specializing in forming STF groups, and you shouldn't have many problems at all. You might not get the optional objective every time, but you shouldn't fail it.
...talking to players is like being a mall Santa. Everyone immediately wants to tell you all of the things they want, and you are absolutely powerless to deliver 99% of them.

Considering I pug everything in this game, and have completed all of the ground elite missions, you should/or will in time just keep at it.

Yawn. Beat it first try with a Sci in an under-equipped Ha'nom.
Experience and skill are OP. Plz nerf.
