Is there really any point to being a klingon?

Serioulsy? Our pvp blows... noone plays, we dont have pve, we dont have half the gear options the feds do, we dont have half the ship options the feds do, we dont have half the customizing options, or costumes, or really anything comparable to the feds....... Yeah I know in the movies the feds were the good guys who always won they were more advanced yada yada but this is a game... its not a show....

I have noone left to pvp with anymore theres no real pve to run through, my BoP and Carrier have been nerfed sooo hard that they might as well be a tier below most cruisers and science ships on the fed side. We keep getting nerfed, and toned down, and no new content gets added <unless its prepackaged ezbake oven missions that go for both sides> And meanwhile the feds get a new playable race every week, new ship custimization options once a month, cloaking devices, new ships entirely, new missions, new costumes...... and they keep getting buffed.... CMON!!!

Its to the point now where I log on and NOONE is there to play<pvp> with only tons of feds. Right now in fact im in que cant do all my dailies cz theres noone on klingon side. Ppl are leaving the faction in hordes, its like a mass exodus... why wont you ppl spend a few days hammerin out just a lil content pve or anything for us? why cant u stop beating us to death with the nerf bat for just ONE DAY!!! And why cant u let us have anything original? all of our stuff costume options, ship abilities <ie cloak> <carrier> <soon to be orions> yada yada all go to the feds..... I mean its just so imbalanced,,,,

I go to ANY social hub Qo'nos Gand. etc and its like a tomb...go over to fed side and its a fun interesting time with lots of cool ppl..why?? Cuz they are all over there!!!! this is just getting ridiculous.Plz alleviate my concerns and fix this before you end up having a one sided game.. or at least add another monster play faction like romulans to the mix...SOMETHING!!!!!!!

Okay okay srry .../end rant

    I agree klingons need more content. granted I don't play klingon, but I see what is going on, and it is not fair. yes there are more federation players, so in theory they should get more content, but at the same time you would have more klingons if they fleshed out the klingons. also we feds have enough for now. three new ships with specal powers, and two C-store ships with their own powers, and what do the klingons have? a ship that looks like a lion fish that is a class that not that many people play. that is it. nothing else.

    Cryptic take some time and flesh out the klingons.

    playing on both sides ar RA-5 BG-5 I feel it to.

    PVP ques are impossible as a kling and as a fed all i get is fed vs fed games.

    And we can blame this on Atari (if something is wrong blame atari)

    Nope... being a Klingon is like having a terrabyte of attitude on a 3000gb hard drive. I can do without that. :P

    what did you think was going to happen....
    no real content for klingons, pvp maps that are old. fed's not wanting to get on pvp,....
    the dailies don't force people into the pvp area's. as they have the pve daily as well.
    that is kind of dumb because you can't use those points with the other daily.
    once you level your toon up.. you don't want to do it again because no one is on half the time.
    as well if you don't buy the c store slot increase. you only have three slots so you want to save a slot for new race that comes out, so why get a new toon going then erase it when the new faction comes out...
    For PVP they need to bring in open war map PVP even if its on another server as not to bug the hard core PVE ppl. Where everyone can be on... Guilds could rebuild membership as real fleets, Not capture the flag but capture the sector, system, planets, starbases. Space and ground combat. and be rewarded with points, equipment, resources for crafting and trading. as long as you hold that territory. as well everyone can be in a fleet from teir 1 to tier 5.. and play together with there own stats...
    Then you change the game from a run a gun respawn game to more of a tactical planning type game. as well lose that in game mini warp speed travel while not in actual combat. impulse speed is impulse speed, warp is for out side the system travel.
    that would help fix PVP a bit.. They should have never allowed players to use every type of weapon system out there. it should be race specific.. Fed's Phasers, klingons disruptors..
    as for the cannon DPS should be the same as beam, just you get a few more shots per burst like 2.
    a MK V phaser be it cannon or Beam should have the same base DPS a MK v is a MK V just give the cannons a few more shots per cycle. then let your bridge officers skills bring up the power and hit chances.
    but hey what do I know just a consumer.....

    I gave up playing Klingon , it was so tedious and dull , be great if they stopped making c-store TRIBBLE to sell back to us and used that time to add klingon content!

    At this rate itll be years before a new playeable faction is added.

    Everyone is quitting the klingon side... we get no new ships.. <asides from yet another carrier <weaker than the fedships I might add> No classics like the felkyr cruiser, or even better the K'Vort, no refits,, I mean damn....I myself am playing fed side more and more ...BUT playing the game less and less... all my friends I had when STO came out have quit the game <all the klingon players that is> Klingons are soo underpowered now that when feds pvp us they actually get BORED!!. And that would be fine if cryptic fell to the masses and wanted to shaft us w/e BUT theres no PVE content either!! so theres just nothin to do ,,,so your just SOL .. in fact Im gonna make a new tshirt ... its gonna have a sad frowny klingon face,, and underneath it will read... "SOL in STO"

    fed escorts have NOT been nerfed as much as BoPs srry to disagree but a facts a fact... hellz the entire dps, shields system as well as cloaking mechanic has been nerfed multiple times,, not to mention the hull too, OH and the whole entire klingon faction has been repeatedly nerfed as well.... do I even need to get into this??? you cant b serious.

    Recently got BG5 (So sue me, I took off several months after launch to give them time to fix Klingon. And having not played since maybe a few weeks after launch, I -am- happy to see the improvements.) and while the trip was fun (and tedious) I find myself completely agreeing. Once you reach BG5, other then getting as much purple gear as possible, I see no reason to keep playing a KDF character. Especially when it's hard to get a PvP match started, and an impossibility to get a KvK match going.

    Im in the same <Nice rack btw> Im in the same exact boat, THANK YOU for agreeing.... all I ask for is some equality, if just in order to bring the players back over to the klingon side.

    Oh God. KvK space maps are HORRIBLE. I tried it once. WE sat there cloaked for about 30 minutes before I left.

    Started a new character, Sci Captain. Can't play much for a few reasons, so still Lv9. But you need a tank or healer, someone who can survive an alpha strike. Preferably, be that ship rather then hope someone else on your side is. And then simply do not cloak. The other side will decloak and fire, and your side decloaks and returns fire. I switched out Tachyon Beam for Hazard Emitters and do this in T1 play, it's worked wonders for me so far.

    Only real problem is a handful of BoP's dogfighting other BoPs is a bit annoying. I would actually rather be back in my Cruiser versus Escorts. Less worrying about dogfighting, more smiting tiny ships.
