I have a suggestion: attempt to learn some better grammar! (+ Spelling and Syntax too)
/endbeingmean+Iamsorryforthat-kinda
YouTube wants to say "bye"
As for what you say:
SWTOR has a bigger fanbase and has more money to spend, you got that Star Trek fan?
I have only played about 25% of the game, and I am addicted to it. I do not intend to play the 25% for a LONG time.
I also read Cryptics Stories and so forth.
I also like the Fleet, and being with the Fleet, and playing with the Fleet. When no on in my fleet is online, I generally play less.
I also like exploring, "paying the in-game STO bills" and so on.
I also do the odd mission every now and again too.
Good Luck out there.
Remember to stay within Starfleet Communique.
As for PS: It is a stupid system needing an update, and in someways, unfortunately not a bug.
I hope STO get's better ...
After we get finished being dragged through completely unwanted and repetitive PvE grinds, we're forced to go back to the same 3 maps that have existed (and not even been fixed) since launch.
At least PvP is dynamic in that no 2 matches are the same, but still.
Needs an update that it will never get because of people who refuse to think so without these 1 hit kills nobody who does think would never die, even in a shuttle
lol at the swtor update thing, most of the time their "updates" are adding more stuff to the Cartel market (their C-store), or rotating out one of a couple annoying events no one seems to like in the first place. Also if you think bug fixes are rare in STO, you have never played SWTOR. Another thing to point out is SWTOR is technically pay to win, because you NEED to buy a sub and stay subbed, or a upgrade from the Cartel market to use endgame equipment at all.
I log on, play a couple of fleet actions, log off. It's little more than an online shoot em up, and so it will always stay, till darkness falls.
My Grammar is within adequate parameters, and I would not say "Very good". It is not "good" grammar by any means, but it is better than most of the "grammer" I have seen in my life.
(I forgot the Colon at the time of writing)
As for the not native speakers, good point, and in-fairness, I should have supplied a useful tip : when using the personal pronoun in the nominative case, instead of "i" it really ought to be "I".
As for being rude, I apologised, and admitted to being rude.
I hope STO get's better ...
There is no replay value for any of the episodes, and I burned out on STFs DOING the rep grind. PvP has gotten out of hand, as in the only ppl who really do it anymore are premades, which doesn't interest me as its just a long grinding war of attrition all the time (why I quit Guild Wars)
The only thing I had left to do was log on with everyone to do their daily dilithium cap, but since I have no need for it, have no ships/packs/zen stuff to buy, I don't need to do it, really. Which means I really have nothing to do anymore.
My ships are set, geared out, and completely badass. I just have nothing to point them at now, so meh, I haven't logged on in about a week. Been having more fun playing Xcom Enemy Unknown and Fallout New Vegas again.
Anything on the horizon I am not really interested in because all new content now seems to be focused on a stupid rep grind, fleet grind, pve grind, or some other form of grind for something that either has little value or is completely necessary in order to compete with others. Sure its new stuff, but its hard to get excited about a new rep grind or fleet holding under the current mechanics, as I will still have to grind the same old boring TRIBBLE (Defera dil dailies, Eta Eridani dailies, ISE, KASE, bunny hunting, etc.) to unlock whatever OP thing they offer with the new fleet holding or reputation system.
Meh, I think I have had enough.

Ain't this the truth..I think alot of players are beginning to feel this way.
I've mentioned this several times but even the keybinds are messed up. Ever check them? Let me elaborate:
The "Pitch Up" and "Pitch Down" binds are totally reversed. Pitch up should make the front of the ship climb. It doesn't.
The camera keybinds are messed up too. One of the binds labeled as "Zoom In" actually zooms OUT, so you have to use binds that are both labeled "OUT" to actually zoom in and out.
These fixes are so super simple; all it would require is to go into the code in one place and swap the text for "Pitch Up" and "Pitch Down" and change the camera one also.
BTW, the binds also do not remain when you create a new character (some do) but I know for a fact that the bind for "Jump" is always reset to SPACE.
Add "AdjustCamDistance -15 "
Subtract "AdjustCamDistance 15 "
Up "+invertibleup"
Down "+invertibledown"
i have no problems to bind something to the spacebar too
This sentiment is all over this thread and crops on on the forums at least weekly. I don't get it, at all. One borg stf a day will take you 15 min and give you more marks than you need to get to T5 rep. Epohh tagging for 5 min a day will give you more marks than you need to get to T% rep. Nukara is slightly more annoying, but still one Azura rescue and one vault ensnared a day for about 25 min of your time will give you more marks than you need to get to T5 rep.
All told, that's 45 min. And you're doing 3 differing PvE space events, and one lolwut ground event. There's variety, and brevity. Also, it take 45 days I think to get max rep. I have no idea what your attention spans must be like to consider 45 days a long time and grind fest. That's half a summer. That's nothing in an MMO.
I'm not sure how it could be less long or grindy. I suppose they could let you buy T5 in the zen store but then people would cry pay to win. If they nerfed the requirements, people would just get there even faster and easier and we'd just see more 'bored' threads sooner.
I've been playing for just about 3 months now, and I have 3 level 50s, and haven't made it past the cardassian missions of any of them.
I still need tons of doffs and commendation xp, to explore more than half the PvE queues (I just did mine trap for the first time, yesterday) , finish the quest missions, gear my Romulan for PvP and play more than Kerrat all while hitting my daily dil cap, trying each foundry mission, and working on the accolades for nimbus and new romulus, and also learn how to, and actually do, the borg ground stfs.
There is MUCH to do in this game that takes a while, but the good news is it's all the fun stuff. The rep grinds? Not so much.

Its not that the grind is hard, its that end game has repetive PvE and alot of issues with PvP. I like to PvP but even that will get old after awhile with how broken some of the consoles are. Rather than balance them though, Cryptic just makes an even better console and requires another grind to get it. All this does is force you to particpate in the useless grind just to compete in PvP. BTW the biggest problem I ever had with the grind is running out of XP because I like to try new things with my lvl 50 toon which also sucks out XP to train different boff skills. So during a grind on a toon I am forced to play my character the same way the whole grind. DOFFs are expensive
Welcome to any MMO gamer's life, you mean.
Yeah I was about to say that as well. SWTOR went with the horrible Freemium model. It's like their devs were ferengi holdingonto your slip of latinum while they throw lobi crystals at you trying to make you a deal that even your mother wouldn't want.
The updates are really just more store stuff from what I've seen.
And no game should be freemium man, not for so little content, they want freemium which, as shown to us by SOE who've been exploiting players for years, is clearly a double dip without even washing their hands first.
Wow, you completely and totally missed the point.
The stuff isn't hard to do, I (and many more) are just tired of doing the same 5-10 things over and over again. Run the dailies for dil, run Tau Dewa patrol, run nebula rescue, run ISE, etc. All of which only takes an hour or 2, sure. Its just the same thing every day.
Aside from that, you said you have a lot of things to do. Thats great. Many of us don't. I have no more rep to get. I don't need dil, or zen, or EC.
PvP has become boring as you either get slaughtered by a premade, or slaughter some people with horrible ship builds. OR you manage to get 10 people who know what they are doing, and the fight lasts for hours, and not in a fun way. Either way, even if you do happen to have fun in a pvp fight, it means nothing. Yay 15 people died and we win/loose. No points, no record, nothing to track. Its meaningless, and its lost its thrill. It used to be fun, but its worn off.
You may be having fun still, and that's great, honestly. I hope you continue to have fun.
You aren't bored yet, but don't worry though, you'll get there.
then do something else.
problem solved.
---- FIRE EVERYTHING ! ----
brilliant.
Like what?
Play something else?
Done.
but but but their are foundry missions :P sorry had to

It would be nice if PvP were expanded into a truly viable alternative method of gathering resources (dilithium, marks, EC, etc). I'd spend all my time PvPing, and I'd probably end up buying more Zen via dilithium as well.
^^ This right here for me as well. I had a blast in STF's before S7. Why? Because I could go into an STF, and do my best hoping to complete the optionals with a chance at some borg salvage, or tech.
It was fun knowing that I always had that chance. People did NOT afk because that would diminish their chance at getting those items.
Now, its all about the stupid mark grind. People can afk, there is no real reason to complete the optional..(15 marks lol). Pre season 7 was fun
not to say i didnt have to do slide bar and pay dill for my sets to ya i miss the old days before this game became slide bars online

Thats so true. Iam still here, because i hope, that STO become mor Star Trek, with deeper content, canon interior, open PvP-zones (where you can capture a system for your faction) and not only more reputation systems and more stupid grind.
Swtor seems like a smash and grab trying to suck up as much money and pull the plug as soon as things take a downturn the game did not even last a year under a subscription model but they sold about 2.6 million copies at $60+ and all the subscription fees from that time but even those players have to buy content from the store like everyone else now with the new model.
S7 was a mistake i don't think you will find 1 player that enjoys the new rep grind and pvp is just hopeless it needs to be redone from the bottom up. I personally love the idea of pvp in this game and really liked the matches before level 50 but after that its all about the p2w ships and consoles that turn it into a instagib fest.
The crazy part is both star trek and star wars appeal to some many people they don't need these p2w/buy content path people are more then willing to buy costumes/ship skins and other vanity items. Compared to any other fantasy games sto and swtor has a huge edge in that department.
