Console version a lost cause?

I believe us console players shouldn't get our hopes up for any new content to be added. Because it feels like it will take Years to get the fleet holding.

The Mirror Invasion Event report suggests an update is coming November 15th, containing at least Admirality.
If you are already impatient for more, then perhaps you aren't suited for MMORPGs, where content simply can't be created as fast as it's consumed. Not even close.
Content has already been created, they just didn't feel like adding it in when the game was launched.
Because if it was, the game wouldn't have been launched this summer at all.
part of your problem may be the limited number of console players in these early days, it might have been wise for all of the current players to segregate into just 2 or 3 really big fleet groups so you all have a lot of members rather then creating hundreds of fleets with just a few members in each.
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.
What's broken let's see
Unable to use my skill points (have sitting at 20 unusable
Ship/Rep traits don't unlock
So ya let's be patient while my progression been halted ?
It's like being mad at someone...you can feel you have the right to be mad, but that doesn't change the fact that the rest of the world doesn't care. I don't care. Take a chill pill. Coming in here and acting the like an entitled 10 year old will get you no sympathy.
There...I don't care, that guy over there doesn't care. The guy sitting behind you don't care. His mom doesn't care. Heck, my mom doesn't care.
I don't mind waiting for new content. I just want bug fixes. i stoped playing cause i kept getting interupted by gameplay bugs
I would not be surprised if it's all coming in one update. Okay, maybe a little, because it seems Admirality, DOFFing and Fleet Holdings at once might be a little much in one go. Maybe Nov 15 really just brings Admirality (which would mean you'd end up with a lot of Prisoner and Colonist DOFFs you can't use yet...) We'll see.
...yet.
They've said that they're committed to bringing the console versions into parity with the PC version as quickly as they can. They've got people dedicated to making that happen, but it's not going to happen overnight.
Keep in mind that during the time that they were developing the console versions, they were revamping the lighting, creating all of the art assets and other content for the Agents of Yesterday expansion, creating new featured episodes, and running the summer event. Not to mention the tons of other stuff that they've done to improve the game.
They spread themselves pretty thin over the summer, so give them some time to catch a breather and then get back into it for the end of year content.
Some advice - grab all you can now, when you do get access to the holdings and reach the later tiers you will need thousands of fleet marks to complete single projects. It maybe does seem unfair that you can't get an instant reward for your efforts but if it helps on the PC I am continually telling my fleet that those who don't contribute don't earn fleet credit and can't buy goodies from fleet stores. So think of those fleet marks as an investment for the future, they don't use any storage space and whn the time is right you will be able to get some good quality gear with the fleet credit you earn when you are able to contribute them to your fleet. (For reference, my Fed fleet is 3 years old and we have only recently opened the "must have" consoles etc, so having to wait is normal).
If the events on console follow the same script as on PC you will also get a decent dilithium reward and shiny new toy for completing the event over x amount of days plus a bonus dil reward every day thereafter until the end of the event. So getting a few fleet marks to save until needed isn't a big deal especially as you will probably get at least 5 fleet holdings straight away when available.
Popcorn?
We got a total of 14.5 GB at release how big is pc now?
Yes! Please! Thanks!
When I reinstalled after a HD failure just before the last expansion the total was around 17Gb iirc - however please remember that relative size on different platforms may be due to variations in coding requirements. Also quite a lot of the graphics, sound and general mechanics of later expansions/updates will have been included in your initial download since some items are recycled or can be used elsewhere.
Console has around 50% of the game that PC has got, even the Wiki hasn't been updated for the console version yet.

STO for console has only been released in early Sept 2016, and you think it will take years to get fleet holding?
Wow, what a drama queen.
(Queen - I want it all)
Ah well, was fun while it lasted I guess.
That's because they nerfed our forks after Delta Rising so that [DOOM] and [DESPAIR] don't stack.
