    no, I mean we can make a good guess but only cryptic knows. there will probably one late in the the year because there normally is but we can't give a date or anything.

    if I stop posting it doesn't make you right it. just means I don't have enough rum to continue interacting with you.

    No one could tell you exact dates besides Cryptic. Here's a link with information regarding the lifetime subscription (LTS) including most but not all of the dates & prices. Inside the: Contents box just click the: Sales sub-link.

    I've seen them run twice a year, usually around the Summer/Winter events. So keep an eye out.
    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

    It is really not worth buying anymore imo. You can make any character a borg with the lobi ground set, the ships are old and un-
    spectacular. There is nothing in the LTS that is worth the price. Now 5 years ago and earlier it was worth it because it gave you priority access to the servers and the ships included were great at the time. But today you don't have a lineup of players waiting for access to play and the post season 13 c store ships are far superior than the older T6 available. So I would take a hundred dollars and buy the account bank, ec extender and some c store ships (post season 13), I think it is a much better value for your money.

    And yet there's still bad lag and rubberbanding. :/

    Oh well. Wish I had seen some advice like this a little more than a month ago. At least it was on sale.... >.>

    Yeah, PC, so I'll be getting the stipend. Kind of wish I had made the purchase back in 2012, though, even if it was full price then. I would've come back to over 40k zen in my account.... I guess I didn't cause I could already feel myself losing interest and wasn't sure if I ever would come back, so why spend the money? Oh well. *shrug*

    I purchased it back in January with the last 50% off sale and I am very happy I did. I am a casual player and found all the ship great for my needs The other benefits as well. Nothing I am sorry about. Plus the 500 zen stipend is great. I have been letting it accumulate for purchases later in the year.

    I would say take a careful look at all you get and decide if it adds to your experience as a player. I can say for me it did.

    The only thing disappointing is the Captains Table. It is a ghost town. I had hoped to see Captain Kirk, Archer, Janeway, or some other famous captain. No sign of them. I do make a point to roam around from time to time and have a drink at the bar.

    During one of the previous Twitch streams, Ambasador Kael mentioned that he keeps pitching ideas for the Captain's Table, but one thing leads to another, and they never has time to do it. He did also mentioned that he will keep pitching ideas for it until something gets approved and actually put in-game.

    Does anyone here know how to obtain the DS9/VOY style Admiral's uniform? I'm playing on the PS4 and I've been trying to purchase it for 2,250 Zen but it won't go through, saying something about needing to buy some kind of uniform packs with it, but nothing is specified as to what I need to obtain in order to get this uniform. Can somebody please give me some instructions on what to do? I would really appreciate it! B)

    Not to add any burden you might be suffering but how does your issue relate to the Lifetime Subscription?

    Actually, that's worse now because they are paying for very poor servers and cheap internet connectivity. To be honest, it was a lot better years ago. I'm a Lifetimer and Pre-Order guy from 2012 or whenever the game came out. I'm actually pretty appalled by the network lag in the game these days. And download speeds are atrocious, but what can they do? They clearly aren't making enough money to buy better equipment.

    That scenario would make sense.

    Yeah, I had played back in very late 2012-early 2013. Never remember any of these issues then. And yet there seems to be less players now than then. :/
