    But a hater is going to hate so carry on, those of us who love the game will still be here playing! And listening to Priority One!

    If I hated the game I wouldn't be playing it. The people who keep thinking everything is fine are doing far more damage to the game's long term viability than those who are pointing out critical errors in the decision making surrounding the game.

    That's an opinion if I ever heard one!

    And a good one.

    Nice show btw. I can still enjoy the shows without Geko bragging. The other Cryptic employees you get are often quite reasonable.

    And the RP part at the beginning is fun.

    I don't think everything is fine, I just don't post everything to comes to my mind in the forums. But also as an independent game designer I understand that Cryptic will fix the issue's or at least I hope they will. My problem is that the forums have turned so negative that in my eyes these forums have turned out worse than the Battlefield forums and that is saying something. My haters comment was just a general statement and not calling you per say a hater. I am a former Infantryman and not a English major.

    There have been a number of opportunities for Cryptic to reverse their mistakes. They haven't done it.

    I'm sure someone's going to say "they haven't made any mistakes" and you're entitled to your opinion. I only ask that you queue up for an STF while you think about it. Trust me, you'll have time to think about it very thoroughly.

    You should be blaming a lot of the issue's on PW and not Cryptic. I would debt a lot of the reasons things have came down like they have is because of PW. Keep in mind they are the publisher and money flow for Cryptic. Now as far as the STF's goes, I don't have any wait issue's but in all fairness that's because the fleets I run with always have the numbers in Teamspeak to run private Q's

    A month ago, nobody needed to join private STFs. We could all just queue up for an STF and off we went, no stupid waiting times and we'd get a reward at the end of it that made it worth doing.

    Those days will never return and that is 100% the fault of the person who decided to cut the rewards. Do you think Perfect World specifically said "please cut the rewards from STFs"? No, neither do I.

    I agree with the STF rewards advanced should have stayed at the old elite levels, and I agree with the pug Q's being empty. But I must point out, your first reply in this thread was bashing P1 and not about these issue's. As there is many other threads to go into those issue's why don't we get the train back on the track, so let me ask you JS who do you want to direct the next ST film? as that was what Elijah asked for input on?

    It still works for ground. Especially Bug Hunt and UIA.

    Space is different because the space fail conditions are things that random trolls can botch easily.

    Like tripping a trigger line, falling to activate/guard transformers, or beaming into the shield control room and activating nodes before the big room is even clear?

    One persons trolls are another's new players ... , or perhaps the non-deciples @ the altair of the allmighty DPS .

    You can put up reasonable numbers without being a DPS monster. And you should if you're going into aSFTs.

    You do understand that the first two JJ films are part of the last 50 years of Trek History, yes?

    Eh those 2 movies don't count they are nothing more than all the crappy looking fan films made out there. Only difference is people had to pay to see those 2.

    The only difference is that these last two films essentially revitalized the franchise.

    How so? What else did we get from thouse 2 movies? A TV show? No.. a new game? Yes, Star Trek The Game, a really bad one.

    So again, how thouse 2 movies revitalized the franchise?

    The movies proved what STO players already knew:

    If you call yourself a Trek fan, then you know the answer. Then again, from what I have seen, you're one of those oxymoron fans who are an anti-thesis to IDIC.

    Maybe, but only for ppl that want to change 50 years of history.

    Me, I am happy with the 50 years of Star Trek.. happy and proud to be fan of this franchise.

    I understand that you don’t like the ST universe as a hole (maybe that is why you love STO so much), but old trekkers like me, well.. they don’t forget easy their pass.

    I'm age 51 - saw the original Star Trek series (well Third season) first run on NBC (I was age 6 then) - and have VERY MUCH enjoyed Star Trek (2009); and Star Trek Into Darkness MUCH MORE then the majority of TNG in general (which I think really retconned A LOT of original Star Trek in a not so good way.) I did like most of DS9 - honestly did not like VOY at all -- and also enjoyed ENT as of all the modern Star Trek series, it came closest to returning to many aspects I liked about TOS (mainly the fact that the crew was essentially human beings one could still relate to, and NOT the utterly PC, 99% well adjusted - unless corrupted by alien influence - mannequins of the 24th century era.)

    Bottom line - Please don't talk like you speak for all of us 'old trekkers' (and truthfully, I honestly doubt you are all that old. :eek::D Also, you do realize the Star Trek 'franchise' won't be 50 until September 9, 1966 - so the two Abrams films still do fall within the first 50 years of Trek history. So you might want to check your math as well as your spelling (I assume instead of hole you meant 'whole' and 'pass' you meant 'past'.

    Modern iterations of Trek don't suffer from a lack of 'fresh', they suffer from a lack of experience. Bring in Riker.

    If you are talking "experience," bring in someone from TOS not that sad copy that was TNG.

    They are all unavailable? Bring in JJ who came the closest by magnitudes compared to TNG.

    Also TNG doesn't exist in the current timeline.

    He will also need something to fall back on because as far as I can see, SW VII is "Goofey," "Dopey" and whatever the Sad Dwarf's name was all thanks to Disney's "creative differences" with him.
