Cryptic, please fix the retrofit ships.

Cryptic, the retrofit ships have an enormously fundamental flaw which needs fixing.

There's nothing wrong with their stats.
There's nothing wrong with their officer slots.
There's nothing wrong with their special abilities.

Their fundamental flaw is that they're not available at RA6 as they well should be!

I don't want to level up to VA1 and have nothing to do in my retrofit ship but grind dailies and repeat the odd raid.

I want my Tier 5 retrofit ship while I'm already at Tier 5 and not Tier 6. I want that ship so
I can use it to enjoy the new episodes and level up and improve my skills in it.

I don't want it as a reward which I will have no use for until you release Season 3, whereby it will probably be supplanted by T6 ships anyway.

For crying out loud.

Please keep your posts clean. ~GM Tiyshen

    Of course I agree with you. I just think it's funny how Cryptic keeps money grubbing and doing stupid things.

    lol, cant wait to see the pricing on the Excelsior and Nebula! admittedly I like the Excelsior enough to shell out alot of money for it but still....

    Ill admit, im not happy about the ships being restricted to lvl 51. Once I hit 51...its still gonna be the same TRIBBLE over and over again....without episode replay this game has little to no replayability at all.

    I admit I posted rather aggressively, but I didn't say anything directly abusive. Highlight the poor wording that doesn't get my point across, explain why you don't get it and I'll concede.

    This is why I hit max level and stopped playing. I can log in for about 3 hours every patch and experience all the new stuff. It's ridiculous how much of a lolfest this game is. I love ST, but this game lacks so many of the basic mechanics for a successful MMO that I just can't play it. Too bad I got the LTS before release - was really hoping this one would be a winner.

    I have far less time to play STO than I did earlier this year so I know the Season 2 content will last me a while. I'm happy about that.

    But I'm not happy that there will be no content left except the repeatable stuff that gets very old, very fast, once I have the retrofit ship I was lobbying for like almost everyone else months ago.

    you already have it underlined and highlighted so as to emphasize it.
    i like people (and i bet cryptic does as well) that can post suggestions, thoughts, issues, even rants, without resorting to such use of the language.
    it shows that a poster can achieve the same end result and can handle a mature exchange of ideas and words, but also a respect for others as well as whom they are addressing the post to.
    your use of the highlighted and underlined area showed me you care more to insult than anything else.
    after i read that, the validity of your post was killed.

    try removing that, and you just may get respect in return.

    edit: i have been guilty of this myself. but i try to edit as soon as i discover my heated words have no place in the post, or support my post.

    I'm sorry, what?

    I underlined a part of my post which had very mild curse that wasn't directed at a person or persons, and you call that insulting? You infer that I'm trying to insult someone?

    I'm afraid I can't take you seriously, because you're being judgemental over literally nothing.

    lmao. and you expect myself or cryptic to take you seriously if you choose to use words like that?

    Destra has already posted that they plan for the level cap to be raised to at least level 61. And in that post, the tiers all stay at T5.

    So you have at least another 10 levels to fly your retrofit ship. Probably more.

    I do expect Cryptic to not be as anal as you over language that can barely be called strong.

    i see the basic concept of respect and professionalism elude you still.

    My only comment on this is you are not allowing yourself a wider perspective. Some people will find what you posted extremely offensive due to their own beliefs and convictions.

    Other than that, though, Cryptic pretty much tells us all not to post those things. So you're taking a risk when you let you frustration dictate your word choices.

    This is a MMO forum, not a board meeting. Cryptic has yet to comment on the matter.

    I do agree to the thread starter, i don't understand why the retrofit ships are not available at rear admiral 1 like all other T5 ships?! What is the logic behind that? So many ppl are looking forward to command these ships, but when you finaly get access to them you're probably at the end of your journey through STO story quests/missions.

    The best advice maybe is to level up with defend & explore missions and do the story quests after reaching va1.

    Considering you tanked your own thread and made it pointless ...

    My thread's not pointless at all, it simply got derailed by the self-appointed courtesy police. What does it feel like to wag your finger at those who don't always talk like they're addressing foreign dignitaries, instead of you being constructive and addressing actual issues raised?
