Cryptic, What items are you looking to add to the C-store in July? Will the remainder of the Pre-Order items be listed, Auto-mated Defense Turret, TR-116 Carbine, Red Matter Capacitor? Will the Del Taco Type-8 Shuttle be listed? Tribble-of-borg maybe?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Most likely Del Taco Type-8 Shuttle and Red Matter Capacitor will be added, but I doubt the others will be in the near future. The Capacitor is still quite useful and the Shuttle is a vanity item that's fun to have, but as for the other items, they are low-levelled items that lost their "worth" once anyone reached the Captain status. I don't see the market for the other items anyway.
As for the Tribble of Borg, I am sure it's going to be available for you again, when Cryptic decides to hold test server event. I say let us be patient.
I'm tired of paying for C-Store. Add all this stuff in for free.
Cryptic listens to the community so let's take a poll:
A) Who wants to get game content for the subscription price that they already pay to Cryptic?
Actually he's right. The fact that we are asking for new contents from C-Store is in itself, ridiculous.
Much of what we request in C-Store Forum should all be part of the playable contents from our subscription fees!
Hey now. I love my Automated defense turrent on my tier 5 ship.. works well with plasma and tc torps and not to metion as a great answer for mines.
Keep it quiteeeeeeeee! I am still using it too and I am being selfish here for those who haven't used it yet!
You guys don't need automated defense turret! It's useless!
:rolleyes:
Actually the auto-defense turret it incredibly useful at the high level as it automatically shoots down heavy plasma torpedoes and tricobalt devices. If Cryptic was to implement it then they would have to change that unless they want to make high-level weapons useless against C-Store people....
Turret and Capacitator are utterly useless! They are not marketable and no one will want them even if they become available for 5 cents on C-Store.
Now silence! Don't talk about Capacitator and turrets anymore!!!
Nononono! Do you have any idea how much trouble I went through to get a Del Taco Type-8 Shuttle? I live on the East Coast of the US. If I were to drive to the nearest Del Taco it would take me a week and cost me nearly a grand in gas and hotel fees!
Oh heck, a friend in Arizona gave me the code. And it's not like a little flea with an ion trail even matters. Del Taco shuttle should be up on the cstore for free. It has no point and makes almost no noticeable visual impact. Most people don't even notice the shuttle until after you mention it. Even then it disappears in combat so there's no reason to even claim it, let alone activate it.
By the way, I'm joking. Honestly I think anyone who would complain about the shuttle is like that lady I saw at Popeyes Chicken once. She drove 40 miles in an SUV whose particular make and model has a gas mileage of about 12mpg. She drove it 40 miles to Popeyes, 40 miles back home. Realized she was shortchanged by 3 cents, drove 40 miles back, got out of the SUV, let the engine idle, and argued with the manager for half an hour about whether or not leaving the store constitutes forfeiting any amount she was short changed by. She only left when another customer gave her a nickel and said "here's your three cents back, and my two cents if you'll take it: get some help lady". Then she drove 40 miles back home. Imagine how much she spent in gas in comparison to the 2 cents "profit" she made from that little escapade. Time is money and she was burning both.
I agree and cannot understand all the "Cryptic we want X added to the game. Put it in the C-Store." requests. It's absurd. Doesn't anyone want the ongoing game content to be included with their monthly fee? Isn't ongoing content supposed to be the reason for the monthly fee?
It seems like every time I read a new thread, I find yet another person that wants to pay money above and beyond their subscription fee for game content.
There is a Del Taco 20 minutes from my house and you wont belive what I had to go thru to get it...massive taco [edited for content]!!!!!!
It was the worse case of taco [edited for content] that I ever had. Be thankful you didnt have to eat their food to get you Type-8 Starfleet Shuttlecraft
QFT.......
I vote B! Because I a) like the fact that whiny people won't get said item and b) have money to burn!
(seriously, I had a debate with my fleet about this, all the normal sub holders were happy things were in the c-store and said they would have been angry if the preorder items had been made available/unlockable by other means in game. They said they felt it would deminish the actual value of the items. sigh.)
