With all of the updates why has the captains table not received an update? Should Liberated Borg Captain get liberated Borg vessels and if so should they be max tier what ever that happens to be even in the future? Don't get me wrong, I love the chimera and that it gets the free upgrade. I would just love to see, Liberated Borg specific Borg vessels. With that Should they not also be allowed to cross faction as long as it is another Liberated Borg Captain who is teamed up with them. With recent incursions into ESD by KDF players an auto timer if you are not part or that faction or grouped with a captain of that faction should be in place.
there is a slight change in the post conversation.

I do not believe in just complaining, about a problem without trying to fix it. So how to go about solving the problem.
1.)Is the captains table redundant?
2.)Actual worth while Ship bonus for 1000 day members.
3.)New possible bonuses.

The Golds, and LTS'es have gotten all they are going to get... Best to get used to it.
If I am not mistaken, there was also something new recently added - a ship upgrade token. (Not that you really need it, Fleet Tier 6 is the future. Or Scimitard.)
What you call "reward", I call a marketing scam, to make us buy the da*ned things.
Still wondering if that's a perk or not. :P
Losing faith in humanity, one person at a time.
Since the Talaxian 5% Skill Bonus & the 700day 5% Skill Bonus don't seem to stack, it's more of a bad joke :P ... but hey "Talaxians", probably to incompetent to use both :P
people have been saying that for ages and they have added at least 3 things in the last year or so, the ev suit, the free T5 upgrade token for your choice of ship, talaxian playable species and that's without even mentioning the free T5 upgrade for 1000 day ships.
so you cant rule anything out, the extra items are not necessarily aimed at current 1000 day subbers and lifers but to tempt new sales, its just a nice bonus that current gold members benefit also.
now with T6 ships taking the limelight the current 1000 day ships are looking a bit meh, I would not put it past cryptic to add some sort of T6 reward to add appeal for subbing to 1000 days or buying the lifetime package.
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.
Well, a marketing scam to make us buy less things wouldn't be a very wise idea.
It could be very noble, however.
Those things weren't really added for the subsribers now, were they? I mean... The EV suits were C-Store for god knows how long... The Upgrade tolken... Also made for the C-Store...
And well.. The talaxians... I am not sure what to think of that.
BUT... Things are good... theres not much point in trying to get more out of them... IF they add something, they will not do it for free...
One thing, I can promise you the marketing dept. hoped would bring us to buy more.
But yes... giving things away for free has always been a good way to make people spend money.
if they add anything else or if they don't is no nevermind to me, I have got all I ever expected and that was enough for me, if they do add anything else whether its something I can use like the upgrade token or something I will likely never use like the playable talaxian it will be gratefully received regardless.
as I said its not added for me or all the other current golds like me out there, its to tempt new buyers to cough up the dosh, its just nice that we get it too, no matter where it come from if its free its good.

You get enough to entice people to get it if they are of a mind to, and why add more things to it when you can just add them to the C-Store and get people to either pay or use their LTS stipend on it?
but without full facilities ( spacedock, exchange, tailor, Vendors, skill and boff trainers) then the CT will remain there but unused.

Well as it is now yes, there is nothing there for people to want to use. I have seen maby 1 other person there every time I visit like once every 3 months. So to get people to go there more often make special missions for it, a crafting bench that allows you to select exactly what bonuses you get from crafting an item, and a store that you can buy mk XV items. Once people find out they can get thoes bonuses who would not want to subscribe?
just give us a free Tier 5 ship at 50 like it is now and another free Tier 6 ship at 60 so it stays in line with lvling the characters.
Liberated Borg captains have Borg Ships, and the ability to team up with other Liberated Borg Officers for faction specific Actions like allowing a Liberated Klingon Captain to defend Starbase 24 as long as It was a Liberated Borg federation officer who invited them to the team.
Free Tibet!
That makes no sense and is probably a bug. Lifetime members get the 700 day veteran skill point bonus up front and you have to have a lifetime sub to be able to make a Talaxian. So what's the point in giving Talaxians a skill point bonus that doesn't stack with the vet bonus?
I'm not sure myself if the Talaxian skill point bonus is stacking with the vet or not. He does seem to level up fast by completing story episodes. But then again leveling up to 50 on any character is rather fast. It's when you reach level 50 leveling feels like you came to a dead stop after slamming into a brick wall at warp 9.
True. But the combat EV suits are no longer available for anyone other than veterans and lifetime members.
The upgrade token allowed me to upgrade my fleet intrepid free of charge. That saved me 700 zen.
You contradicted yourself. You say they won't give anything away for free but then turn around and say giving away free stuff gets people to spend money? Perhaps I'm just misinterpreting that.
I can tell you they have added new veteran rewards since I've been a lifetime subscriber and I never ever had to pay anything extra for it. In fact I have no reason to keep paying anything since I get all veteran rewards up front for no additional charge, even new rewards added later. But I do still buy zen for real money once in a while because I want to and it would take months saving up my monthly 500 free zen to get anything new from the c-store and I don't have the dilithum to trade for zen to get it quickly, especially when dil exchange prices start rising like they have since the winter event started (before winter event = about 156 dil per zen; as of yesterday = almost 180 dil per zen and going up).
Give Captain's Table a shiny new coat, though (ESD-style); and make ppl actually able to sit on chairs, and it might be a viable place again.
please stay on task this conversation post is for giving ideas on how to improve lifetime subscription bonuses

Forget the Borg ships, Borg Cooperative ships are far more fun and reasonable for a Liberated Borg Captain to use.
