    The game engine cannot keep up with all the TRIBBLE that can be brought bear in a match. the other night when I was pvping and I got into a match that had team spamming GW/TR/TBM/TBR/Pets when I died my ship never exploded on my screen it almost looked like it was froze there. That same match I had to click APA 10 times to get it to activate while cloaked. :rolleyes: This game has such poor performance that really reaction time is an engagement to engagement thing. Same match I went to alpha and was watching the targets buff bar, the screen jumped and the guy went from no buffs to at least 6 in 1 second. :confused:

    Also very visible in the Tribble Undine PvE content. Maybe that will need to some technical improvements that will help PvPers, too?

    Nah, I figure it might be too large in scope to fix if it wasn't already scheduled, so I expect either some tone-downs to happen in the undine content, or it just released that way ...

    Nothing is wrong.Being blind every 3 seconds is cool,i even think I'll remove a eye ball to be blind in real life too cuz why not Mr Miagy can do it why not me ,having to fight t8 ships aka romulan ships (built in romulan jump console with AoE sensors BS ...totally not broken) with normal ships is also cool ,having to fight with ingame effects and laggy UI...most awesome thing ever.



    but thats true...I can avoid being vaped if I don't get stuck in invisible plasma/theta /etc or if I dont get vaped in the first 3 seconds when I do pvp bootcamp with my pug.Also normaly vapers should exist in a game in which the UI works...I don't see that happening....40 clicks for 1 rsp ,200 for 1 tt which also needs 1s to activate....my main enemy is the game then the vaper.

    Also I dont have any friends cuz I'm antisocial :rolleyes:

    i didn't mean you anyway :D

    Well to avoid a vape it's a matter of keeping moving and have an "OH TRIBBLE" button to get out of trouble when you sense something wrong. I want to see a 5 second shared cooldown on overload, proton barrages and isometric charges anyway. Not too long to be game breaking, but enough to stop burst damage creep. I do the vaper sometimes, but I realise how annoying it can be for other people.

    Oh TRIBBLE button takes 20minutes to react ,i can't keep moving if I enter in invisible plasma also I can't time my stuffs if the cooldowns for apo for example after you use it goes down to zero then gets another 4-6seconds because the initial countdown was wrong (this bug is from the time they nerfed bouble tap ).My main enemy is the game design.

    I can't disable my team's spammy powers.If most people hate when the enemy team spams all kind of cheese I hate it when my team does it to...it gets to the point where you don't know who dropped that ewp or theta.

    Yes that is dumbest thing friendly things like this need a blue aura or something or does not show up on your teams screen unless scrambled. Having it not show up to friendlies would probably make the performance of the graphics slightly better
