    Ladies and gentleman, this is your forum stewardess speaking. We regret any inconvenience the sudden server down time has caused. This is due to periodic air pockets we encountered. There's no reason to become alarmed and we hope you enjoy the forum sideshow. By the way, is there anyone on board who knows how to write code?

    [as the server prepares to take off]

    Smirk: Nervous?

    Players: Yes.

    Smirk: First time?

    Players: No, I've been nervous lots of times.

    Never heard of cryptic studios before eh'?


    Way to go calling the monkey a jerk, jeesh, SMIRK!!!! IT CALLED ME A JERK!!!! :P jk, but seriously, come on, your complaining about bugs.... your new to the game aren't you?

    You went from complaining about FED fleet alert, and now everything is broken in the game, and you can't kill shtuff.... I did hear they were making a Hello Kitty online game, maybe it would benefit you to go play that, until the rest of the people that have been carrying your "easy" pug group matches, can get up to par again.

    Never heard of cryptic studios before eh'?

    What post were you reading?!
    I never mentioned Fed Fleet Alert even once.
    also, AGAIN, I don't PUG ANYTHING!
    AND I've been here since one week before launch...read my signature.
    You really should check your facts, or do you like the taste of your own foot?

    So, where "Airplane!" had the in flight movie as a crash test of a jet,
    (actual footage by the way)...

    Does this mean we need a new Delta Rising Cutscene
    (non-skippable of course)...

    of the devs in the server room
    ripping their hair out over the extended maintenance?

    Player: *Looking out the starship window, seeing Smirk and Trendy, already shot out the airlock by the starship AI, start sorta float-dancing with each other, as they float away. The Player then looks over at another player next to em.* Did you see... *And looks back, as they are no longer see.*

    Time to get worried about the Hamsters? =oO=;;;

    I honestly like the difficulty increase. You actually have to think about how to handle battles and pick your targets accordingly. No more leroyin it. Ony spot in the story missions I have had a problem at was that holo voth bulwark. Reflects are painfull hehe.

    EMS: Smirk, how soon can you have the servers up?
    SMIRK: I can't tell.
    EMS: You can tell me. I'm a doctor.
    SMIRK: No. I mean I'm just not sure.
    EMS: Well, can't you take a guess?
    SMIRK: Well, not for another two hours.
    EMS: You can't take a guess for another two hours?

    Say, Smirk? Would you happen to know...

    Is tonight's patch gonna fix the Borg red alerts as well, by chance? This morning's patch caused the Unimatrix ship to stop appearing at the end...

    Smirk: You'd better tell the Captain we've got to fix these servers as soon as we can. These players need to be told what a server room is.

    Players: A server room? What is it?

    Smirk: It's a big building with servers, but that's not important right now.

    :D

    Maybe if some players would stop throwing tantrums (similar to those of say, a 5 year old child) during an unplanned (but scheduled) server maintenance period to fix major issues with said game's sever performance...

    You have a science gank? or are all five of you tactical wanna be DPSERS? If your pulling 11k DPS your doing something wrong, as tac.

    And my good sir, if you knew me, you would know i am not an "elitist" i run the best most casual tier 5 fleet system of alliances in the game i have seen, ever. We just help our people get their fun, by having fun with em and keeping them informed. If this makes me an elitist, so be it, i guess i am.

    Hpow is saying go meet some people, being elitist? i thought most elitist were in the 30k DPS channel, i am not :D Just the 10k.

    You know, its a thing called team work.

    Sometimes we also like to use a word called diversity, you know, bring a tank, 1 healer, and 1 science ganker, and 2 DPS heavy Tacs or something.

    DPS dont matter, team work does. No where did i say anything about DPS, except in this post.

    Notice I said 11k+ meaning 11k is the minimum. Had you paid attention you would have caught that. The issue is that right now the health of the enemies and what not is jacked up right now to ridiculous levels. When people who are pulling a good amount of dps all have to concentrate one ship just so it will die in less than 10 minutes and even then it still takes awhile, something is wrong. Plus fleet alert as i said can't function this way as it prevents anyone sub 50 from doing it. You're right teamwork does matter but when everyone in there has mk xiii ultra rare gear for weapons and tac consoles, plus other good equipment, and it still takes forever to kill stuff, something is wrong and attention needs to be called to it.
    I'm not PUGGING story missions...or anything else.
    There is massive amount of glitches, and the enemies have insane abilities that scale with my team.
    I KNOW what I'm doing, you jerk!
    I've been stomping ALL content in this game until Delta Rising came along with it's Vaadwaur lunacy, and it's 700k Hull Hit Points.
    Basically, my 4-years+ experience has gone completely out the window.
    That's ridiculously insulting.

    I'm not disagreeing there is a massive amount of glitches and what not. still some stuff needs to be addressed.
