Just curious...

By Grabthar's Hammer, why do you feel this is a necessary change?
Heh. This is going to be popular.
I'm actually indifferent to it tbh. It sucks for new players, but won't hurt established ones too badly. Doing the assignment every 4hrs was annoying anyway.

Loving these Klingon costumes! Are we supposed to have an option to switch to ridgeless heads? Because I'm not seeing them, but I know Geko had said we'd have to get a AoY character to level 10 in order to unlock the Andorians/Tellarites/Gorn, so maybe Klingons are the same way.
It worked for me as did the Gorn head, though that's the only part you can change to the 23rd Century style at the moment.
The benefits of high alt accounts practically just died.

You guys forgot about Nanoprobe Infestation again. It's a captain ability, not a kit ability.
Holodeck ticket 2,853,424: Expose chance of Nanoprobe Infestation halved from 10% to 5%
This tattoo appears on the standard ridged Klingons, but not on the ridge-less ones.
... Wow. Add in a bunch of Dil sources that don't favor KDF (I.E. Admiralty with high Sci needs, but few Sci ships), then nerf the one Dil source that did favor KDF.
Edit: To add on to this post, I rarely manage to get the turn in even twice a day on chars. I think the bigger issue for me is that my previous job was swing-shift, and this is yet another 20 hour cooldown I would have to just toss aside when ever I changed shifts, far too many 20 hour cooldowns already. Not everyone is 9 to 5...
edit: If, or when would we be getting them?
I guess you can blame me since I reported it in the bug section on the forums recently. I'm surprised they fixed it this fast. LOL
It's not a big deal. Only human boffs are suppose to have the Leadership trait, and you can buy purple quality humans from the exchange for super cheap (all purple quality boffs I get from doff assignments I sell for 5k each just to get rid of them and so others can have them). If you don't want human boffs in your crew, that's something you'll need to work out yourself.
Nice! I was planning on requesting that soon but you guys beat me to it. I really appreciate it. Now, about that ToS shuttle interior.......please?
Turn in contraband........meh. Plenty of ways to get dil by actually playing the game. I turn in contraband when I get enough, and I'm not swimming in it either. One way to look at it: the demand for contraband will go down, thus increasing the supply in the exchange, and lowering the prices, maybe.
Same here. No outfits in the dil store.
But can we please get eyeshadow makeup back for Vulcan and Romulan males? Thanks!
Also, MACO uniform? As in the one from Enterprise? The MACO armor from reputation doesn't have backpack straps...
She's supposed to be your equivalent to the existing "starting buddy" characters and as such should have a loadout that is good for ground and space. If nothing else replace leadership with something all races seem to be able to get like Accurate or Elusive.
You may want to fix the effects where your Character and NPCs are constantly gutted by Taurean mega-spears, when you really mean to have them miss. You have this twelve foot spear sticking through you to no effect. Just isn't right.
About Tarsi:
Forget about Racial Traits and making them all the freaking same. Don't you think somebody from some Race would exhibit some ability that most others from their Race doesn't have. Makes them special, someone who would have gone into this because they excelled, had that higher calling so to speak. Instead we have Cryptic just acceding to a bland profile, believing that only certain races know anything about effectively performing in Space Combat. Why did these Officers aspire to the Stars - so they can all be ground pounders?
Adding the Na'kuhl Red Alerts back is good. Do you know, since the first two Missions of the Future Proof Arc featured Tholians, why not add Tholian Red Alerts to the Alpha Quadrant as well.
l don't know.
l really don't know what l'm about to say, except l have a feeling about it.
That l must repeat the words that come without my knowledge.'
This patch fixes the gorn head?
Admiralty made dilithium worthless. Nerf Contraband! /slowclap
I mean, I don't really care about the Contraband in and of itself, it's just that this expansion is removing any incentive to play KDF whatsoever.
Fully agree with ixionveridian on this one. I'm at a loss on why "the powers that be" deemed the timer needing to be increased 20 hrs? If we need to increase the timer, why to 8 hrs. Jumping to 20hrs is pretty excessive. I know a lot people enjoyed KDF because of this one.
Do you really consider people collecting contraband to turn over to their Fed characters as "playing KDF"? Really?
BTW...person selling contraband: it could end up going either way...people will drop KDF characters so need to buy more Contraband, but it could turn into too many people selling all extra contraband and the Exchange will get over run with the stuff and be worth less.
“Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.” -- Benjamin Franklin
I'm having the same discussion in the OST. At the end of the day, we've still got the daily refinement cap in place, and the amount of unrefined dilithium has never been an issue, it's the amount of refined dilithium that's the issue especially with no discernible sinks to drain it from the game.
And I'm sorry but with all the issues with the duty officer system, for the Dev's to choose to alter a single assignment as opposed to fixing the issue's such as the borders that has been widely documented, goes to prove how messed up their priorities actually are in my opinion. After all Cryptic made the decision to add additional dilithium rewards at almost every other facet in the game.
