Well, there basically has to be...when it is what passes for content - doing the same couple of things over and over for three months until there is new content!
Cryptic are suffering from "I can't hear you over the sound of how much cash we're making"
As someone who's celebrating having their 11th year as an Eve Online subscriber - I remember CCP completely gutting and rebuilding their graphics engine and launching a bunch of new ship classes at this period of Eve Onlines life time, now that's ambition.
Nothing I've seen has convinced me that cryptic aren't just doing a smash and grab with the IP.
Raising the level cap would be like new pvp maps being introduced.....and I dont think cryptic has figured out their code to do either w/o messing up a looooooooooot of other stuff (Yes this is the real reason why we still see no new maps, inserting them would apparently risk messing up their pve queues :rolleyes:)
The few who have what it takes to compete will progress, undaunted at new challenges. More and more weak willed wanna bes will fall off.
There will be HIGHER LEVELS
There will be BETTER WEAPONS (mkXiv)
There will be MORE REP GRIND. (speculate at will)
There will be MORE SHIPS
THERE WILL BE ANOTHER 10 SEASONS! ANOTHER 10 YEARS. Nay..
another 10 decades!
A CENTURY OF FEDERATION DEFEAT
I will only expect max level at 60 with lower/higher Tier 6 (Levels 55, 60 repectfully) ships and nothing beyond that.
Well yeah, Mk XIII and Mk XIV (like u said)
Cryptic will have to reorganize their entire Rep System when they do decide to increase the cap to level 60, i want to see how will they do it...
The will be more ships... only with alot more Foreign Alien Lock Box ships and 1000 more Federation Warships to make the KDF look like peace lovers of the galaxy.
i hope this game does last 10 more years, but i think that Cryptic alienated the STO fanbase even more especially PvP players, i know alot of ppl most of PvP'er drop out of STO in favor for other games mostly due to the lack of PvP content or i will say none at all.
more like THE CENTURY OF FEDERATION VICTORY as long Captain Geko is at the helm, i'm not gonna say what Capt Geko says what he's gonna do to the KDF Faction or Rom Subfaction, for the past years he actions speaks louder than words which the Federation faction having more ships than both the KDF and Romulan factions combined and the Romulans have almost just near amount of Tier 5 ships to the KDF and the Romulans faction been out for 1 year while the Klingon 3 years.
Feds will have Raiders and KDF will get Star Cruisers. Sound about right? /facepalm
You're right Feds will have Raiders... KDF um, have u learn any thing from the KDF/Fed Lock Box Consoles exchange?... we will get nothing in return, not even a lowly Star Cruiser
yep, and either it will take like 1 day to cap again making it pointless or it will take a while and people will rage.
I'm cautious about the mk XII UR crafting gear. Although it's awesome, if they raise the cap and make MK XIII and XIV gear, it will be rendered garbage.
I remain empathetic to the concerns of my community, but do me a favor and lay off the god damn name calling and petty remarks. It will get you nowhere.
I must admit, respect points to Trendy for laying down the law like that.
In all other mmos you can upgrade the best gear to the next best so you never trash your hard earned shets.This is sto....so that won't work.
Hrmmm, I have memories of games where with a level cap increase...greens of +1 level were better than purples of the previous level when expansions hit. That generally speaking, you'd have replaced all your grind gear within the first 2-3 levels into the new level cap from vendor trash that was better...
The hun... search for the Klingons did well Fed comrades!
Today in Ker'rat many have been nucleari... subjugat... kille... captur... vapo... dealt with swiftly to guarantee security in the sector. Starfleet ships may enter at will to help fight the Borg threat. Rogue KDF meat... ahem ships shouldn't be an issue for now.
Stay tuned until we plan the destruction of Qo'n... er, counter attack to the Collective.
The future is full of exploded Feddie hulls and sad acne faced teens crying in their mountain dew big gulps. As their little scrotums shrink and their balls retreat back into their stomachs they will know their enemy and cower in PvE for all of eternity.
Ehi, evul Klinguns, what's wrong with you? You just got our OP uni consoles and probably in a near future you'll rock the skyes thanks to our awesome super uber OP Cruisers!
Enjoy our OP ships...I'm sure you OP PvP players will do better than we do with them...:P
We got a Fed console??? I did not know that Geko gave any Fed items to the KDF...
I think we already got a copy of a super uber Fed Cruiser, a Copy n Paste Avenger :O
Well we do have our own Fed like Cruisers... Gorn and Orion Cruisers which they're all still NPC ships at this moment, i'm sure our players can handle them better if made playable than Feds using their Escorts ^_^

hey!! i represent that remark!!
anywaay, u smell like flowers...ewwwwwwwwwwwww!
lol :P
Guess it is a matter of perspective.
I think they might have wanted to do that with X2, but with the skill revamp being pushed back to S10, I wouldn't expect higher levels until X3.
They would alienate so many folks doing this if they didn't offer some form of upgrade path.

Meh, sometimes 10 more minutes seems like 10 minutes too long.
Heh, speaking of 10 minutes, leave the Feds alone for 10 minutes and they'll find a way to defeat themselves.
