This 'expansion' is more just to have a reason to sell TOS ships.

I have to agree. Some of the missions are very well done but compared to Legacy it feels very spare. Though, it certainly doesn't annoy me as much as Delta Rising with its 800 year level up system.
"Coffee: the finest organic suspension ever devised. It's got me through the worst of the last three years. I beat the Borg with it."
Delta Rising was the best expansion evar and the players loved it!!!!!!!
Support 90 degree arc limitation on BFaW! Save our ships from looking like flying disco balls of dumb!
It seems like nothing more than marketing and an excuse to release some TOS and KT ships. It's not even half the faction that Romulans are, who aren't half the faction that the federation is....It's a fraction of a fraction of a faction.
I am not a fan.
I had a major nerdgasm playing in the ToS era, then it ended after level 10 and back to the same ole grind fest as always
LoR was the best expansion and i firmly believe this game peaked with it, we wont get anything that major again period.
They haven't even come close to that level again. The game is still good.. it's still fun and I still enjoy playing it, but LoR was the peak for STO.
They have never approached that level since. This one is great for 10 levels, then it's well.. over. The 2 new STF's are tedious in my opinion and overall it's really short on content.
What there is of it, is great. It's very fun, it's entertaining, there just isn't enough of it.
In terms of quantity it certainly falls short of previous expansions. The technical quality is ok-ish, voice acting seems awkward now and then, with the samples from TOS episodes that feel brutally forced in sometimes. Also: some bugs.
What it really did well was to capture the optics and atmosphere of TOS episodes, as far as this is possible within STO.
All in all, it's good (and free, mind you) but has it's shortcomings.
false: always the same grind after lvl10. important bugs which are a real pain in the behind (animations for example), and the most interesting stuff are in a f..... box.
but, the stf Days of Doom is interesting, it needs teamwork. the new missions (temporal missions) are not different from the others (kill that, pew pew etc), but the plot is interesting even if I hate temporal stuff.
And i don't understand why they added the grain. the people in the past lived surrounded by grain?? strange idea lol
just a question: how they were able to broke the Risan cruiser, the driclae pup and other stuff which are not even a part of the new expansion? no changes were necessary for them
No need to compete with DR cuz everything on this planet is better than DR.
Why I like it more than LoR?
Well back then it was either go Romulan or go home. The new Nukara Rep wasn’t supported by anything new at all which was a big hit in the face.
With AoY we get roughly the same amount of contend like we got with LoR it’s just a bit better distributed for everybody to enjoy even when TOS is not on someone’s agenda.
