Q: (dontdrunkimshoot) Will STO soon be able to use the Neverwinter PvP tools so PvP can finally get some attention?
STO Team: PvP is on the radar and something we?d like to update for STO. Stay tuned! Also, we are all proud of the recent graduates from PvP Boot Camp, and all the organizers and coaches! Great job to all involved with that program.
so much for their "pvp will be updated next season" line they fed us before legacy of romulas was announced.
looks like we're on the back burner again.
good job cryptic.

Science pvp at its best-http://www.youtube.com/user/matteo716Frankly, I think the only sound advice that one can give new players at this time is to stay away from PVP in STO.

Their goals for PvP are to make PvP approachable to all, that includes PvErs.
Gecko is interested in adding a "competitive PvE" element to PvP and doesn't seem to be in favor of Zero Sum PvP (i.e. Arena).
PvP will get some form of a Rep system (to guarantee player time investment and to create dailies). Effectively new variables, new shinies, new must-haves.
A PvP focused season is not going to be some messianic re-balancing of powers, oodles of new maps and modes.
You sure you don't want to stay on the back burner?
hey, at least the long lost brel skin will see the light of day, along with a tier 2 bop refit. maybe another fleet bop will follow? they really need a fleet version of every one of the raptors and bops, hope that all comes soon after LoR. shouldn't be to hard to make fleet ships compared to something all new with special consoles and stuff.
Remember when we were told PvP would be getting attention 'next season', oh... maybe back in Season 3?
Their 'competitive PvE' so far has turned out to be nothing more than an over glorified DPS race. Sure, you can rack up points by healing - but you can also rack up way more by just sitting at 9.7KM and blasting away.
No idea. Maybe you should ask in the C Store subforum, where it belongs

2010: This is Cryptic PvP. Please hold the line, your call is very important to us...
Swing and a miss...

trolled dstals on tts the other day and he stated " we would like to revamp pvp but this will not be until after romulan update, maybe next year sometime." that is literally what he said NEXT YEAR....
NEXT YEAR I will have no need for this half TRIBBLE pvp space game or what I like to call it pvp junk code...
I?ll be patrolling the Cathcart and surrounding systems?hope to see some of you all there..
dont suppose you or anyone got this in a screen capture?
id love a montage of all the "next year's" he's given us.
Do you even Science Bro?
Ya'll are still posting questions about this? Ya'll should know better by now. It ain't gonna happen.
PvP development requires effort, and that's something cryptic doesn't do.
oh please do i need a good sig
It's weird. They both seem much more 'repeatable' than STFs or the New Romulus stuff to me. I would have been keen to build on that myself.
Unfortunately the prevailing mindset that seems anti "zero-sum" PvP means it's not taken seriously.
PvP as endgame should be a no brainer for a free to play game, an endgame where your players happily fight each other.
No story writing, voice overs required. No need for story missions, featured episodes, new enemies with new powers or artwork.
Instead it seems we will get something none of us actually want or have asked for, competitive PvE with a Rep/grind system attached to it.

Weird, that's almost word for word the same answer in the last ask cryptic I read before I stopped playing... Go figure :rolleyes:
But yea... It would be nice to give the PvP'ers something else than nerfs to focus on for a while.
They keep giving the same reason/excuse time after time as if we're all a bunch of ****tards with **** for brains.
"All of our devs are currently working on S6, but we plan to revamp PvP when we're done with it."
"Sorry, all of our resources are being devoted to S7 at the moment. We will work on PvP next year when we're done with S7."
"Oh hey, even though we hired new devs, they're working on LoR, new costumes, ship skins, new PvE scoring systems, new lobi consumables, bug fixes, and anything and everything that has nothing to do with PvP, but we're gonna string you dumbasses along and say we'll get to PvP when we're done with this stuff, but in reality we're just going jump directly into something else that has nothing to do with PvP. Suckers."

It's a fantastic game, I love the fact that you're able to do PvP in Ground and Space. Besides balance issues, it's a great game, it just lacks of end game content.
And hopefully, hopefully the Dev team knows this and they are working on it.

It's really not...
It has enormous potential, potential to be literally one of the best (the IP, the space combat core mechanics). But that potential isn't being realised, and won't be under this studio.
I agree, but even if they never improve PvP, I'm not leaving. I have too much fun playing with a great group of guys, including those guys on my list.
This needs to happen, in video overlaid with the team America 'everyone loves a montage'.
Well from what ive seen now non of those skins are available for any high tier bop again so w.e. its the usual stupidity seen like never before.
Well what you said, at least they finally do release it. Imo any bop should be able to wear any skin, its just stupid the way it is now. lol
