Would it be possible to add a large message to the STF queue reminding people of the "new" Remodulators? Or add a check to see if person has one before allowing queueing. Just to save everyone's time.

as it is i have deactivated damage floaters for everyone else but myself, but i see this ADDAPTED floater for everyone who is shooting -> so the only way to know if they addapted to me or someone else is to look at the yellow numbers and if they show 1 1 1 they actually addapted to ME...
I'm sorry but that gets tiring after the first 10 or so runs. Would you be so kind and provide them with Hypos too?
That's so Annoying.
I was a part of 2 Infected runs last night where at least 3 members of my team did not have the remodulator or bring any hypoes at all!
I was playing my KDF Science Officer and had no choice but to switch out to a healing kit to try to keep most of the team alive.
It also seems that since the jump over to Holodeck , normal and Elite levels of the STFs have had their difficulty bumped up a couple of notches.
I was getting two shotted on normal and strong stares were killing me on Elite.
A lot of players are jumping into Elite STFs that have no business being there because of the better drops and the problem with that is they end up being dead weight that rage quits after the 1st 5 min.
Ive got to try to find my happy place because it will be 1000 times worse when the F2Pers come in and reach the required level to run STFs.
I was wondering about that too. The start of KA Ground went so badly I thought I accidentally queued for the elite one. Crits happen but still getting one-shot by elite tactical drone kind of sucks.
I run ENG, so I make sure to pop my combat supply whenever I can and anyone who's low on/forgot hypos can stock up that way.
I know! combat supply ought to provide a stack of 5 one-time use combat supply re-modulators if the person opening the crate doesn't already have a full one slotted or MACO/Omega/HG armor on.
I also run STFs with a kit that includes Combat Supply.
This is an excellent idea. Throw remodulators in there.
I stopped using it after having to drag the items from overflow bag every time I didn't have 3 empty device slots.
Anyway, this thread was not meant to bash people who are not aware of the S4 changes. Just to make it so that WE don't have to explain it every run.
what remodulator? does the previous one from the replicator no long work? if not, where do i get this new remodulator? ive not seen it nor heard anything about it, so please inform me as to where i can pick this "new" remodulator up.
if its the same as the old one, then i apologize for wasting 30 seconds of your life you can never get back
But I will say this, it would be nice if Cryptic either gave us the ability to replicate remodulators from the ground (Simply say the Crew beamed it down for you). Of course when people start getting the Fractle Remodulator, they won't be forgetting that.
Another thing is perhaps a lock out for ground it prompting, "You need to replicate a remodulator for this mission".
Or people get use to carrying extra remodulators, just in case.

It's the same one. There is a faster one available in some fashion from the new Borg Defera invasion though.
Make that a habit and you won't get stuck with those less aware of them.
You'd think that as long as they've been around (they weren't "new" on the F2P Tribble server, been out for some time now) everyone would know, surprising how many still don't. Perhaps if more were to check the release notes once in a while...
This is probably a good idea. Run a check to make sure the player has a remodulator of some kind before allowing them to queue.
Problem is, we are talking about pugs, most of them don't even wait till the last member is in the instance before they run off. It's quite a while since I had a pug where everybody even read what was posted in chat, not to mention acted accordingly.
I could defiantly see something like this working at the starting position in Star Base 82 where all the useless NPC are cowering in fear.
Another option would be to add the standard remodulators to the list of common items that can be dropped by the Borg.
Then ask as soon as the team is formed, don't wait until your enter the mission. Ask them as soon as they join the team...you have to replicate one in space anyway.
It only takes a minute to find out and correct if they don't.
thank you for that. you made my day. speaking of the deferi borg invasion, it seemed broke last night. is that the case?
