edited June 2015 in Galactic News Network [PC]
After an agreement with the Krenim, we're happy to announce the new groundwork for constructing a Fleet Research Lab - an entirely new Fleet Holding coming soon!

You can find out more about it here - http://www.arcgames.com/en/games/star-trek-online/news/detail/9424713

    Called it - looking forward to this! :)
    If you've come to the forums to complain about the AFK system, it's known to be bugged at the moment.

    Knew a fleet holding in the Delta Quadrant was coming. I hope this isn't too expensive.

    Awesome!! This is exactly what STO needs right now, new fleet goodies and something worth putting dilithium into once again!

    This is gonna be great! :D
  • ronanobrienronanobrien Member Posts: 117 Arc User
    This looks to be great, but I wish that the article provided a bit more details on what exactly it's capable of. But can't have everything, but I'm more than happy to wait for this...and hope that it revives my fleet!

    Shouldnt be too bad for established fleets I would think, but for fleets still working on maxing out its gonna be a pita

    Cool. New R&D and fleet projects.

    Standard comment about small fleets once again not going to manage to get this in any reasonable time frame. Still working on the Embassy and Spire after, how many years since fleets got holdings?

    Ah thank you so very much. 9 Million dilithium here ready to dump when we hit the sell order price.

    I'm also hoping for upgrades it this facility for carrier pets, but I'm very happy even if they don't happen.

    So, is this on the test server yet? Will it have an interior map with crafting stations? Kinda like Memory Alpha had? AND, will there be featured projects to add shiny things on the interior map? :)

    YEEHAW!
    I was starting to wonder when our next fleet holding was going to appear.

    I believe a certainmarine said it best:

    If it is as crafting and R&D focused as the blog implies I can safely ignore it's existence.
  • zeuxidemus001zeuxidemus001 Member Posts: 3,357 Arc User
    With the insane xp grindfest still in existence I will have to pass on this as well until they get it where I can stomach playing this game again.

    Fleets can also unlock inter-fleet shuttle capabilities that will allow for quick and easy access to the Research Lab’s location in the Delta Quadrant.
    can you guys please make the shuttle function properly, as in non fleet-members that have been invited to the starbase can use the shuttle and not be transferred to their own holding?
    as it is, the spire and mine shuttles dump invitees at their own holdings, which really confuses people and complicates base-invites.

    It'd be nice to be able to craft more pieces like the Chronoton lobi dual beam array, even though I doubt it'd be part of it, we can dream.

    Yeah, this would be really handy for when you have to get an invite/or give an invite to somebody who doesn't have a high enough tiered holding. At least you could invite from any of your fleet holdings and they could travel to your other holdings.

    I take it this is going to be a new complete starbase project then rather than a mere holding?
    Still waiting to be able to use forum titles
  • Captain AmahinoCaptain Amahino Member Posts: 13 Arc User
    Well well well. I wasn't expecting this. I can't say I'm mad though. While I'm in a small fleet, I'm also pleased that something has come along that can drive down the inflated dilithium to zen cost we've been experiencing for the last few months. This should be positive. I'm curious how this will interact with the R&D system. I look forward to the coming blog reports.

    It does say fleet holding, so I'm guessing it's a holding. God, I hope it's not another starbase.

    If it will be the size of embassy/dil. mine/spire it will not last long. Thanks to atrocious R&D and gear upgrade system players learned to gather insane amounts of dilithium and will just breeze through a mere fleet holding. But still looking forward to this. I hope the extension of R&D system also means upgradable kit frames and kit modules.

    This reminds me of that part in Shrek 2 where the fairy godmother kept pulling books out and said "Oh look! No ogres.... nope, no ogres..." yadda yadda yadda.... I'd replay that scene and it would play out as follows.. "Oh look, more grinding.... yep, more grinding... let's see, more grinding.... no no No NO!" :s

    The Fleet Research Lab will also feature many unlockable projects to improve both its interior and exterior visual appearance

    Sounds to me like it will.

    This is gonna be a good add on for the game.... From what I've seen so far, it's like a second fleet starbase.... Which begs another question, will the top tier version (likely 3) Be as big as a third tier starbase? Whoa....
  • nandospcnandospc Member Posts: 1,260 Arc User
    Is it a regular Tier 3 fleet holding? I'm looking forward to see who will complete it first among the remaining fleets :p

    It is obviously another complete installation like the dili mine and the spire from what it says in news item.

    Good hope it will drop the Dil exchange some. So I can get back to buying Zen with Dil. Like to see what new stuff they offer. Last few times I got outfits for my Romulan.
