    Every now and again when I'm up at odd hours I'll check out Twitch to see if there are any players streaming STO...occasionally I'll find one or two...one thing I've noticed they have in common is frustration with simple game mechanic bugs...no joke...I've been thoroughly entertained by some Twitch STO streamers who go on tirades against Cryptic....and these are average players!...the kind who are actually the most likely to spend money...

    And it makes me wonder....if your average player is frustrated with game play bugs and what are apparently tech problems...you know the players who don't have an embarrassing amount of alts...the players who actually contribute to your paychecks....again... your average casual player...if they're frustrated, irritated and sometimes livid...you need to seriously consider a season spent to maintenance for the financial future of this particular game...

    looking at the current state of the game, their communication, coding, maintenance, server stability, marketing and management -

    they all should be replaced. i cant even think of ONE employee thats doing his job in a half way fulfilling manner.


    i mean: maintenance extended - when did we learn about it? 2hrs AFTER the first maintenance window expired.

    how often did we read "fixed loadout bug" and its still there.

    how often did they nerf dilithium and stfs just for the sake of marketing "milking customers"


    i could go on for 100 further lines of examples. but im tired about talking in detail.


    i can only say, if this game shuts down ever, it will be a major relief, so someone else might create a startrek game again.

    i think if you write it, it will serve many purposes - you will some time until server is up again (and dont hope it will be earlier tahn you finish with it)
    some players can have eyes openers
    if by some miracle someone cfom craptic will go here, he will see how concerned thir playerbase is

    Ev...you need to seriously consider a season spent to maintenance for the financial future of this particular game...

    Yea Season 10 "A new hope" with nothing new other than bug fixes. Id love that. :)

    KK a Pakled lock box on top of it would be cool as well.

    The quality of this title really turned into a bad joke.

    Someone's soccer mom bribed the server guys because their kids aren't doing their chores.

    I honestly could get behind a nice long bug fixing time. No new content, just fixing bugs. BUT sadly in the reality of MMO's it is new content that keeps the end gamers there usually.

    This is why I have seen long time players quit playing in the past few weeks. Lag, Rubberbanding, Crashes, Server Dropping, Tray Emptying, Doff and Boff Dropping, Load out failure, ext. And they want us to pend money for this. They are dunber then they think we are. :(

    I don't suppose we need more than one dead hamster thread. Merge.

    maintenance, extended maintenance, further extended maintenance - server still crashes 5minutes after playing.


    cryptics people should all be fired. they just really suck at their job. in no other industry this kind of work would be tolerated.

    Right on! People @ GM are being sued & facing jail time for shoddy workmanship. However since no one is dying because of the pathetic programming from Cryptic no one gives a damn, yet it's the exact same thing- shoddy workmanship.
