Time to warp out.

Greed is the only answer i can come up with to explane what has happend to a game that i used to love to play. My main toon is over 330 days playing time my fleet is an alpha with all projects fully compleeted over 800 in our armada and the feeling i have now after just logging out is to uninstall and walk away. I am not going to go into actual details but the op hits and imunitys that can and are being exploited make whole ship biulds worthless. So you look at what just instavaped you with no time between redalert and warp core breech and in most cases you can adapt to it but ship loadouts still not working and only putting parts of your setup in. This is a big theft by the game because i payed for my extra loadouts. Now i did say in most cases you can adapt but being a tac and liking escourt ships makes the Temp cheese **** ships op to any setup i still enjoy flying and lack of defences for entropy has wiped out the last litle bit of enjoyment i got playing sto. Why would i stay and play if i am not having fun? Even if they fixed all my issues with the game i have seen some ugly behavure by a large number of players that can only be described as ganking trolls. The unchecked exploits over time created this problem and dev's can't script in a positive player atitude. Spawn camping,chat abuse and hitting loan ships in groups from cloak again and again all sighns of degrading behavure.
my first and prob last post.

    PVP is not really a must do for anything in this game and we all know that it is utterly broken and garbage. Opted out of PVP myself long ago, I can only say that I very much enjoy the PVE part exclusively (which is the most significant part of the game anyway).
    Your problems with PVP builds (exploits? doubt that actually) is as old as the game itself and now you start to find them annoying?
    I think you are simply burned out of the game itself...that can easily happen after a few years. I'd suggest you stay away from the game for a few weeks, and maybe come back when new content hits again. That's what I do for the most part.

    While you're out can you get me a cheeseburger?

    Just kidding.

    Yeah, if you're over it, walking away is all you can do. Maybe get yourself a cheeseburger or whatever splurge-food matches your particular dietary habits. There's no point in agonizing over something that's supposed to be fun--when it's no longer fun, stop doing it. Adios, OP. Enjoy whatever's next!

    Yeah, if you are into PvP, then STO is not for you.

    Maybe you should checkout Dreadnought which is currently in beta.

    Now a LTS and loving it.
    Just because you spend money on this game, it does not entitle you to be a jerk if things don't go your way.
    I have come to the conclusion that I have a memory like Etch-A-Sketch. I shake my head and forget everything. :D

    I found interfleet and aftermarket channels to be a good place for some PVP.
    I don't PVP like I used to at all because PVP is not what it once was.
    But I do partake occasionally, I'm just more selective about the opponent and scenario so I know (to the best of my knowledge), that we are well matched.
    And that's not trolling new guys or anything, where's the fun in that? I choose my opponents because I think the match will be fun and well balanced. I probably lose more than I win but I do still win.
    I have a friendly feud with a fleet member that has gone on for years.
    Its great fun being mates and evolving together in the spirit of friendly competition, he changes something, beats me, I adapt, beat him etc...
    There's another guy I scrap with occasionally from another channel, and if you're reading this, I will beat you one day haha!
    It's your game, build your community around you as you like. :)

    One post and it's an 'I quit' rant.

    No one will notice you're gone dude, if you don't like the game, just stop playing.
    Insert witty signature line here.

    #4. Speak to a comrade, not an enemy

    Remember that we all have something in common - we all like and believe in the game. We all want what’s best for it. Lashing out in anger isn’t going to make us more likely to do what you say. Threats are also not going to work. Threats to quit especially don’t work - the actual rate at which people who threaten to quit and follow through is so miniscule that it is almost unnoticeable. We are not trying to kill your family or destroy everything you hold dear. We want what you want - what’s best for the game. We are not your enemy, even if there are choices we made that you don’t agree with. We know that not everyone will agree with every decision we make, but nobody reacts favorably to being called names and told they’re stupid or incompetent.

    Like special weapons from other Star Trek games? Wondering if they can be replicated in STO even a little bit? Check this out: https://forum.arcgames.com/startrekonline/discussion/1262277/a-mostly-comprehensive-guide-to-star-trek-videogame-special-weapons-and-their-sto-equivalents

    • Trolling and griefing can be found in EVERY online game.
    • They could have made the new ships inferior to the ones we already had - if they were trying hard to go bankrupt.
    • PvP has been in a sorry state for years now. Why are you suddendly annoyed by its many deficiencies?

    Granted, bug reporting, acknowledgement and bug fixing is horrendous in this game. Many bugs take months, sometimes years to fix and often it takes several attempts. There is no list of confirmed bugs and hardly any feedback on bug reports by Cryptic employees (with very few exeptions). Even small indie games have more activity in their bug forums than STO.

    These posts with loads of 'z's replacing 's'es in response to Leaving Threads was old years ago.

    And all the 'Hall Monitors' can press the Flag Buttons and tell Mommy and Daddy. Then we can all go back to sleep.
