R & D Objective complete :)

Just a brief background I started as a LTS just before Romulan expansion don't visit the forum a lot .. like most MMO its largely overrun by by entitlement / negative whiny posts and usually when you respond to them in any way than to take part in the Bashing your labeled as a "shill" "apologist" or a "whale that does not care about money" but i thought i would share this.

I just got all my R &D schools to level 15. How are you doing with this ?

I also add to that picture a screen shot of my one person fleet as an example to those who insist that you cant do anything with a small fleet ..well you cant get smaller than 1 person...

Having my own fleet i was able to amass well over 2 million feetcredits so far and hanks to generous large fleets out there was able to leave one of my alts in the fleet and go spend those credits getting everything that i could ever want. and still have over 600k left for future stuff.

I am currently saving up for the new R&D holding i have close to a million dil 10k fleet marks so that should give me a good start on it.

I guess i just saying that anything is possible does't mean its going to be easy but it is possible,

( ohh and just a side note I'm also one of the people that actually liked the delta expansion)

Do i think this is a perfect game no with everything there is always room for improving but i would say i am a good 80% satisfied and think the money i spent at the start was well worth the value .

Overall imo a they have made a very good enjoyable game and a true star trek universe core experience

    Keep fighting the good fight! I have often thought of doing a 2 person fleet but some of the costs are just too much for me and I don't really get the whole fleet switching thing that people do.

    I got all my characters to 15. However I'm getting nervous now that 20 will be needed. So I'm sadly starting to work on it for one on beams, closing on 18. Sadly because if I had kept going I would be close to all 20 by now, but I felt sick of it at 15 and the exponential climb after 15 is shocking.

    What about needing lvl 20? I haven't checked out the new holding yet...

    I've started crafting beams and selling them for EC, but everytime I get a nice beam, I kept it because I needed it. At this rate, I'll never make any money out of this and my r&d material will probably dry up.

    I also liked delta expansion too.

    I also like DPS too, because it keeps me entertained and helps me learn.

    Without this game, there are no other Star Trek games.

    I have a few schools at 20 already as I never stopped at 15, didn't make sense to waste time not researching continuously. I also run a small fleet. I've about 60 characters (inc alts) there, and about 10 are regular. We're not far from finishing the Dil Mine, as this makes everything else cheaper to donate to, and we're T3 in our SB now.

    I also enjoyed DR and the Recruit.

    Now if only we could find some way of getting people to understand the difference between server lag and GFX card stalls! If the screen is stalling, it's your hardware, not the server....I mean, come on!!

    Have all schools at 20 using 4 toons. One has 3 at 20, one at 16, and the rest at 15. Glad they're using level 20 for something, although that will finish killing what little profit there is in making R&D upgrades. Is the level 20 for the new fleet stuff I've seen leaked? If so, not worth it.

    On my main he has one at 20, one at 19, one at 17 and the rest at 15. The 19 will be at 20 by the end of July, at the rate I am going.

    Getting to T3 Starbase is doable with 1 person, but very time consuming. As long as you have enough Dil, Fleet Marks, ECs, and Provisions, you should be able to get pretty far with the holdings. DOFFs really become a huge issue if your characters are full of working DOFFs. Good luck, OP, on moving through the holdings.
