End Of The Star Trek Online For Me

edited December 2013 in Star Trek Online General Discussion
Today is the end of Star Trek online.

It is a sad day after a year and a half of playing (and loving this game).

The game will be deleted and will not be re-installed it until there is an effort by Cryptic to return balance to STO.


Overpowered Tactical Captains, Overpowered Tactical Abilities and Overpowered Tactical Ships are killing STO.

I know this because my main character is an Overpowered Tactical Captain.

I am so bored of being able to kill everything (including players in PvP) in one barrage. STO is no longer any fun to play.

Science and Engineering captains, ships and boff abilities can not compete with Tactical DPS builds anymore.

I have left this note in the vain chance that Cryptic and the STO community might take heed, as I know many players who will soon follow me.

Today is the end of Star Trek online.

No more boldly going anywhere, but the recycle bin.

    Ah, another person who never actually learned to play the other captain classes and ship types, then spouts off about how bad they are. How silly.

    You should probably edit in a disclaimer that it is the end... for you.

    Nerf is OP, plz nerf
    That's quite the paradox, how could you nerf nerf when the nerf is nerfed. But how would the nerf be nerfed when the nerf is nerfed? This allows the nerf not to be nerfed since the nerf is nerfed? But if the nerf isn't nerfed, it could still nerf nerfs. But as soon as the nerf is nerfed, the nerf power is lost. So paradoxally it the nerf nerf lost its nerf, while it's still nerfed, which cannot be because the nerf was unable to nerf.

    I call it, the Stoutes paradox.

    The problem with freedom of speech is that it makes idiots think they have something worth saying.

    True>>>> just spend sometime reading ESD zone chat. But to the OP. I would be willing to bet good money your not quiting and you got insta-vapped by someone in PVP and this is a fake "rage-quit" rant.

    Enjoying that podium you're on? Because you're special, arn't you? Yes yes, you feel you must announce to the whole world that your quitting a video game, right?

    Let that sink in for a second...

    op, you do understand that tacs are suppose to have the "best" dps don't you? they are glass cannons. sci is suppose to heal and or debuff. eng is suppose to be the tanks. sounds to me that you got owned in a pvp match.

    Yup, obligatory "Can I have your stuff" question, followed shortly thereafter by your topic being locked, or deleted.

    Please keep your "DOOM" related posts to the DOOM thread. Never make a separate "I quit" thread.

    I know this because my main character is an Overpowered Tactical Captain.

    So roll a Science or Engineering toon and stop being so angsty?

    Also, why does it matter that Tac's are presently overpowered? Unless you're a.) a PvP player (in which case, you're in the wrong game) or b.) someone who posts the Combat Log after a PvE game (in which case, you're an idiot), Tac captains being overpowered has no effect on the game.

    Besides, Tacs are overpowered? Tell that to my three-straight first places in CEE today. Science rules.

    And the issue is? Unless you're dying all the time and hence can't finish the ESTF (in which case you are, by definition, NOT overpowered).

    the issue is some people dont like completing ESTFs in under 2 minutes.

    the issue is some people like to be challenged and not faceroll through content


    IB4 just take all your clothes off and do a naked ESTF run

    Simple solution - Stop playing Tactical, play Sci or Eng.

    If you don't find being a tac challenging enough, then roll an eng or sci.

    Er, no. This isn't the end of Star Trek Online, merely the end of another would-be captain's career. A career shut down by nothing other than said would-be captain's own lack.

    EDIT: I'll make sure to pass along your feedback, but as "I quit" threads are not allowed because they always turn into flame threads where the poster gets trolled, I unfortunately have to close this one done. Remember, now that the game is free-to-play, feel free to stop back anytime. We hope to see you again soon! ~BranFlakes
