It's gone on far too long to expect any reasonable change at this point. It is what it is. They are all about the new player and new money. Us vets who started DR as level 50's with every story mission done prior to its release will either grind and pay or quit.
And judging by what I have seen both in numbers logged into one fleet channel (the logged in users in the side bar of pidgin) and by the comments on here its sadly the latter.
EDIT: And I think the OP should run for office, that missive has all the hallmarks of a politician, saying something that actually says nothing

The game is becoming deader by the day. Now the fanboys are defending it.
Although now social media is bashing the game, Cryptic, and the dev team up for their mistakes. Whoever says it's the best expansion ever is smoking something.....
I am highly amused by this thread. Especially amusing are the people who have been defending the changes, saying everything is fine and you can get 1 level in no time at all. Hearing the staunchest defenders of the changes in skill points and leveling that have been recently made to the game admit that they haven't even reached level 60 yet has really made my day.

It's funny funny stuff, keep it up.
Lol yeap. Would like to hear from them again when cryptic releases the next set of spec trees with betters abilities as easy means to keep us busy.
I think they all get there in time.

Yep, but fanboys/white knights numbers seems to dwindle (the few in the P1 Thread are not that impressive)

Yes, I had vowed to just do pilot on my main. But she has filled in 10 point on intel now
I'm just doing it to 15 tho so I'll be done before a new one is released - which I'm sure will be much better than intel.

"With the first link, the chain is forged. The first speech censured, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied, chains us all irrevocably."
I think they are listening, and I think they care. I think some of them play the game as players and are well aware of what its problems are.
However, I think they're being pushed in a certain direction from above and it's not necessarily a good one. And if that's the case, then I'm not sure any way we frame these arguments will lead to major changes.
It has been dead since 10/23...DEVs must be hating their job...heck who doesn't. However, working with D'Angelo must be like working with some 3rd World Dictator who don't listen. Hope management will get overthrown soon for the benefit of Craptic:cool:

I logged in and was bored. So, I scheduled some R&D 20 hour things. I then checked my friends list. It was dead then I checked the queues even deader. So, finally, I decided to look up the specialization points I needed 158k to get one captain specialization.
Then I was like "TRIBBLE this!". Then I logged off.

I tried, I really really tried. I even went in for a few UIE runs. Three of them failed because idiots didn't read, the fourth had a troll blocking the way to the caves with a cover shield. In between those runs I was tabbed out playing in photoshop and browsing the forums. None of my fleetmates have been on in about a week.
Join date is wrong, I've actually been around since STO Beta.

lol, i did some grounds, it just does not feel the same at the moment, but remember ... http://youtu.be/ccEwFswnBPA lol
YAY !
I'm only 100K from getting my 10th spec point. It's only taken about 30 hours to get halfway from my last spec point award. I sure wish I had exploited the system like everyone else a few weeks ago, I'de have that pilots trait by now. Thankfully it only took 4 hours to fully rep up my new T6 ship because I may never get that 11 spec point at this sorry rate.

I wish I did the same at least on intelligence.
During Delta Rising's tribble testing phase Cryptic had to put in place a special NPC to level people up because it was taking people too long to grind up to the next level.

And that was BEFORE all the latest nerfs....
Any good going come out of Delta Rising? like seriously. Or good over powered?
and a specialization points fix for all over STO space not only the DQ

Delta Rising contains so many amazing ideas that I can't list them all. It's a crying shame that someone hamstrung it after reading a copy of "MMO Economics for dummies"

I agree with that. There are numerous things which came with DR that could be fantastic, but the things they're doing wrong sadly massively out shadow the good aspects right now. They need to try and get a handle on this fast, instead of running numerous 'events' to distract from the real issues.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, I'd prefer a season dedicated to bug fixes and tuning, than to get to throw snowballs at snowmen.

"still a lot of good changes though, check it out"
Don't have too much fun though, otherwise the nerf hammer will need to come out. And remember to still spend at least five hours a day grinding Argala patrol runs, otherwise you're exploiting XP sources.

I will remember my serious mask when patrolling, I will show NO emotion, I will be one of the plant people and blend in the the best I can.
Well, the lack of any change shows what I suspected all along.
Charles Grey (pwgroverclvlnd) is a flat out #$%^ing liar.
Getting easier to see why this game is failing if the 'Lead Content Designer' can't even be honest with the player base. The initial post is intentionally written in a confusing fashion to try and hide an XP nerf.
Guy doesn't have the stones to just tell people he's nerfing content, apparently it's easier to just post a bunch of double talk, lie about it, and then ignore the problem.
This is the type of guidance this game is getting from the development end. Really gives you optimistic feelings about the game going forward.

Dyson Sphere Battle Zone: Re-balanced how player's scores are calculated for open missions.
Previously, missions were being too generous with points for tasks that were not critical to missions and too penalizing on tasks that were critical for missions.
Guess this will be a additional nerf. They are so trying to force people to play DQ content because it's so awesome.
I want skill points to be at the minimum 2s or 2.5x across the board period. It allows growth and slow down levelling just a little but not enougth to turn people into this.

seriously, to much stick, not enough carrot, not going to hamster that wheel, any human being should agree at least on this, unless it's a job, why do what is not fun. maybe with WW there will be a bit more carrot to the stick
Doubled the amount of rewarded Skill Points for all Delta Quadrant patrol missions.
Thats mean they only want us to do patrol mission, over and over again !!

Love it. Everything is awesome! Did you see <Redacted>?
yes, true pic, but i think that was a passive lol
Yea. It's always there. So definitely a passive console which cannot be removed. lol.
Yeah I should have marked it as 'fused' lol.
lol. Yes. It should be a fused passive console
That is fantastic, like others said just wish it was fused :P
