You folks do realize running around calling people 'bads' doesn't make them want to join your fleets...correct?
A fleet is a group of people working together to achieve something. Why would you want to give your benefits (Whatever they may be) to people who treat others in such a way?
I will take this time to reflect on one of the good things about Delta Rising.
It respects Star Trek canon very faithfully. Cryptic didn't even have to write up a reason why these aliens want to kill us, they just remembered Janeway did it for them over a period of 7 years.
Janeway made a lot of friends didn't she... its sad cryptic couldn't get her into delta rising
i find that the eng maint is a poke and hope for something they should have spent better time on before the release.i also think there gonna be eatin roman noddles before anyone will pay for the expansion when they every other day shut dwn shop for repairs.you can remove this post if u like but it wont improve the prob
So heres the deal to all the nay sayers, and whiners ive seen in this thread, about them wanting cryptic to "nerf" the advanced/elite. Get over it, and learn a build, and put it together.
if you cannot do the new stuff you have one or multiple of the problems i am going to list.
1. You dont actually know a decent ship build. ( gear level is not that important )
2. Your skill tree, you have that all messed up don't you?
3. Your not level 60, SO do normals, until you are max level.
4. Remember Normals were all you could do at level 44-45t to level 50?? Well they should make you do normals from 50-55 so you all quit whining.
5. Your too, unknowlegeable, or unaware how FREE to play this game is, without even needed to cheat, with a macro or anything to make dilithium, and turn it into zen.
Your only whining because cryptic is forcing you to play content, your not "used to".
I would suggest to you, temporarely find a fleet, that is willing to help you learn some actual knowledge about the game, and play with them. Most people have fleet channels, and they are basically "fleet alliances".
If your an owner of a small fleet, make an alt toon and go meet some people. For petes sake this is an MMO, its not meant to be played solo. These are meant to be social games. Join an alliance, with a tier 5 fleet, and get access to your gear that way, and keep your fleet. Its not hard to do things, as long as you have a team that knows what they are doing.
Crytpic has done the best thing they could for this game, because even for most casual players, that play it for the social experiance, as adults, THINK ITS TOO EASY.
Cryptic, and the team SAID you could not just pug the new stuff, so stop trying to join a que from a pug group. Expecially while everyone that knows what to do is power leveling.
I say thank you cryptic, for taking us in a brighter, better direction!
The elitism in this is astounding. The issue isn't people not knowing how to build a ship, or anything of the such. While I'm sure there are issues with this, you make the arrogant assumption in this game everyone is a moron but yourself, and prove your own ignorance. When 5 people that are dropping 11k+ have to concentrate fire on something to kill it in a reasonable amount of time, something is wrong.
Plus Fleet Alert cannot function in its current form. It's meant that players of all levels can run it but that cannot happen the way it is now, so yes they need to call attention to it. If you still want a challenge, run an elite at max level. They make them for a reason. That or throw all white gear on your ship.

Just thought this would be interesting to chew over.
The ship listing for the Eclipse Intel Cruiser in the Zen store states that there is a Lt. Commander slot but at the ship yard and upon using it, it is only Lt.
Lol, took me a bit of reading to find out that the Zen store listing for that ship was just a bit off... knew it was too good to be true Might want to correct that soon.
Just to clarify, this does not pertain to me.
I have done all of this.
When a ship is shooting you from off of the map, spawning endless assistance, and you can't target it because it's off of the map, you have to fly all of the way across the map to get to it, and it has fully healed by then, AND every mission I played scaled according to the team I played it with...no amount of build knowledge and/or teamwork will help that much.
By what your saying, it does apply to you, you just don't really know what you are doing, or want to admit it.
Calm down, when the servers are back up, take my advice, and find a good team, because it seems you keep insisting on doing this, but it also seems the way you are describing this, your PUGGING IT.
Stop PUGGING IT, and it get a coordinated team, and learn how FUN and NON time consuming it still is.

Here, here.
NEW content should be harder; making existing content harder is basically alienating most new players, and this is judging by a massive amount of posts I've seen here, and in other places all over the internet addressing this very topic.
"Join Date: Jun 2012" Says Cryptic's "new" forum system. I've been here since a week before launch, but SOME stuff just didn't carry over through multiple system changes/updates. :rolleyes:

Dang it, I thought you said LAUNDRY. You made me get up and check.
So we finally can have fun?

Guess its the wrong week for the Dev's to quit smoking.
Im not going to lie.. they was the best thing said on this forum today.. thank you good sir.
No. I think the doctor mistook them for lasagna and ate them.
The devs have been sent home for the night, and will try again in the morning.
hahaha i don't think i can recover from that one
Guess it was the wrong week for the coders to quit crack.
Neelix still owes me for the bad Angla'bosque he made once.
