Me when I met the Cooperative's representative.
This expansion rocks. So much awesome. Can't wait to get an Ocompan Boff. Can't wait to see the end game. Can't wait to see who else they can get to 60. This expansion is so awesome, I may skip Warlords of Draenor completely.
Yeah, Cryptic. You read that right. I might skip WoW's newest expansion and just play Delta.
BEST. EXPANSION. EVER!

No complaints here.
I think i'm in the 5th or 6th and have decided to break out a new ship. My old DPS build needs a few more sciency options; the Hierarchy have practically put blinders on me
Most of my complaints are minor.
Borg STF's I'll wait a few weeks before looking again. Too many conflicting reports, bugs and general overkill. I don't want to have a 30K build just to grind, but it may be necessary. Along that line, that may hurt the game in the long run, but we'll see.
Once I get done with all that, I'll try out the new missions with the character who was already using a Chimera.
I'm sorry to people who I, in the past, insulted, annoyed, etc.
Personally I'm much more a fan of DR's writing than LOR's. Even compared to other recent releases it holds up very well and I'll go further to say that its very compelling (and probably one of the best settings/plots we've seen in a ST game.)
The systems are good, technically nothing except a couple space backgrounds (jittery, laggy, and if you've done a few patrols you probably know which ones I'm referring too) have gone wrong, the voice acting is great (and not just on the part of the Voy cast suprisingly) and the art design is absolutely top notch (the Eclipse in the type 6 white hull is one of the best looking ships I've seen in sci-fi.)
Altogether a magnificent release. The only things I wish we had is access to the talaxian off-duty bits in uniforms and more DQ species pieces in the alien tailor.
Notable missions: Apex [AEI], Gemini [SSF], Trident [AEI], Evolution's Smile [SSF], Transcendence
Looking for something new to play? I've started building Foundry missions again in visual novel form!
While I do agree currently.
Ive heard they didnt put all the "content" into the expansion at release so it will be spread out a bit. hense the only 17 missions lol there was way more in LoR overall. so imagine the content will trickle out as the weeks go by.
as for the queues well.... theres enough topics on that right now *cries*.
the region itself is great and quite enjoyable and the music is pretty awesome
only level 52 right now
my only gripe at the moment is the grinding you need to do...
I think more choices between leveling of 50-53 would of been nice.
should get to kobali prime soon so that will help
6/10 for me. when they fix the advanced queue difficulty and rewards then it'll be 9/10 for me
docked one point for not adding all the content for the expansion jsut yet (if the rumours are true or the dev blog convo about it actually exists lol)
DR and LOR were amazing expansions and I defiantly look forward to X3.
I'm sorry to people who I, in the past, insulted, annoyed, etc.
Kudos for the little gags.
+ like all the little upgrades and changes (like the new sector space maps...)
well done indeed, and no server bloke out either.
Yeah, I'm running out of cliches here.
Honestly, it's quite fun.

i was most pleased to see the DR ship pack was on the C-store for 12500zen i was expecting it to be much more, so after buying that i had to faff arround making room deleting reclaimable ships that i hever use much anyway.
i was supprised to see that the 3 boffs and the 3 doffs that come with the pack are claimable on all characters and you can also reclaim them in the future if you need to, this indeed adds much more value to the pack then expected.
of course the 3 upgrade tokens that come with the DR pack also come in handy to upgrade a T5 ship for each faction character then of course i also had all my free upgrades also to do.
then shuffleing some ship weapons and such to kit out at least one T6 ship on each character with some better stuff that though i should be able to improve on in the future but will suffice for now.
so most of the evening was just what you could call housekeeping i suppose.
still a few little bits of that to do later but the best is out of the way, so hopefully tonight i can actually start playing proper.
i still cant get over the value of the DR ship pack, for the quantity of T6 ships alone it is worth the price before you add the other stuff, that is of course providing you have characters in all 3 factions, but then what better excuse do you need to create that kdf and rom you have been meaning to for so long.
When I think about everything we've been through together,
maybe it's not the destination that matters, maybe it's the journey,
and if that journey takes a little longer,
so we can do something we all believe in,
I can't think of any place I'd rather be or any people I'd rather be with.
I was told the Advance were like the old elites. They were nothing like the old elites. A tac cube with 7 million Health?!! THATS NOTHING LIKE ELITE WAS BEFORE! We even lost the ops because those spheres are impossible to kill and there so many of them... But here's the kicker.
480 Dil. I raged. I love the game and was thinking that this expansion was just want the game needed, but the time and energy for a tiny tiny amount of dil was just insulting.
So I stopped. I took a deep breath. sent my crafting off then went for a walk. If rewards wont improve I will walk away.
And hopefully Kate Mulgrew will get on board.
:P
She's one of my favorite captains ever!

So far so good from my point of view.
The rewards have been terrible for the most part, especially STFs. I am loving the Kobali split beam rifle that looks like a crossbow I got from the Delta Rep reward, at least that is where I think I got it.
All in all, It's pretty good with some annoyances that I will get over.

Renegadepilot, I assume you're on the Mindscape mission? Scan the singularities (marked by large yellow fields, and often by Undine bioships); eventually, one of them will be the passage to fluidic space you need. It can be a slog, but the end of that mission makes it worth it, IMO. The implications boggle the mind.
I did Tau Dewa Sector Patrol on Elite and got 2.5 CPT levels and 2 ship levels...Can't wait to try the story line missions.
Would love to get an actual confirmation on this... simply because I've heard this before with Club 47 Revamp, Secondary Deflectors, Poker Minigame, DS9 Fleet Action, Voth Space Battlezone etc (so if they're holding back somehting right now, i would kill for some kind of release schedule) ... I don't get why they would force us to (re-)play generic Content between Episodes just to release the Story Content after everyone is already Lvl 60, though => hard to believe right now
btw : If you don't count boring Patrols and Introductions ... it's actually just ~10 missions ... pretty disappointing for something called "Expansion" ...
Just sayin'...
I also have to admit I'm glad I was wrong about the DR launch. I was assuming we'd have days of server stability issues like we did with LoR, but so far it seems to be mostly smooth sailing.
I can't truly say if I love the episodes or not, since I did like 2 of them, 2 patrol (which are categorized as episode, but they are the same old patrol mission, with talaxian instead of random fed guy), and a lot of grind in between.
As for the rest, well, voice acting is good, and cash grab are not. Then you have the bug (currently stuck at "defense at the gates"), but it's not new from cryptic.
Everyone keeps saying the game crashes, but I have yet to have a problem.
