AFK Penalty for not being able to keep up with the Queue Team while they rushed through to beat the boss.
Shooter Mode without Strafe.
Restrictive Controls.
abundance of game engine errors.
barely complete Voice acting.
cloned beginning for basically every race honestly there's no real differences between most of the Beginning Tutorials you start on a dam ship and then your a captain.
hardly an enticing story.

    you can strafe... Just sidestep while shooting.... It's not hard.

    @jules443 If you can't tell the difference between the Romulan, KDF, Federation, and TOS level-up story episodes then I agree that this game is not for you.

    Well ... bye.

    STO was not a PS4 game to begin with. It was a PC game originally made years ago.

    "Stop liking what I don't like"

    Sorry, I don't think you're going to convince the rest of us to do that. STO is not Destiny, Call of Duty, PUBG and it's not trying to be them. No wizards from the moon here.

    Ok so you must be one of these people who need things drawing out in cryon for you. Let's run through the list shall we?

    Muted in chat; well you dont get muted for nice positive, proactive or objective comments, so I would love to know what it was that you said.

    AFK Penalty; The game senses every keypress you make, so if you moved the direction keys a few times, then you would be ok. To get an AFK penalty, you would have just sat there and did NOTHING, hence the penalty.

    Shooter mode without strafe; As someone already pointed out, you can sidestep and fire at the same time. Look it up in the dictionary, this is STRAFING.

    Resctrctive controls; Look at the keybind list in your options, That is a very long list, and for TWO control modes.

    Abundance of game engine errors; Nothing or nobody is perfect, even the best games by the best devs on the planet suffer a few quirks.

    Barely complete voice acting; never seen any dialogue or monologue where the actor just stops mid-flow.

    Cloned begining; erm, different factions, different origins.

    Tutorial, Where would you like your character to start, in a diaper?

    Hardly an enticing story; Well that is a matter of opinion.

    But at least you have told us what sort of a person you are. You are not civil at all on chat, you do not help out your team, you have no clue as to what strafing actually is (then complain about it), you cannot adapt whatsoever, you cannot spot the obvious, and you would rather be cosplaying a tennager through his 'difficult years' rather than jumping into a ship and getting into the action. Maybe the devs should create a Wesley mode for you...

    Anyhoo, I don't think you'll be missed. Toodle-pip!

    Wow, you are right! This game is horrible! You should give me all your stuff and then quit.

    So... if straifing is not straifing... then what is your definition of straifing?

    Because I'm pretty sure walking sideways and shooting has been considered straifing for years now.
    no not a diaper but it might have been a little more interesting to start as a Cadet and then work your way up through the ranks until you received a captains chair...

    Technically... Feds DO start as Cadets. Its just that everyone above you gets killed off so guess who is left to take The Chair? The player. The original Tutorial had your character as an Ensign aboard the ship you start with.

    It is strafing lol just leaving that there. Have a good night :)

    Question... how heated and colorful was said discussion? Because depending on that... it could very well have been justified if quite a few... colorful metaphors were used.

    I've been playing since closed beta, and you're probably the first person I have seen here on the forums let alone inside of the game that's been muted. I'd consider that quite a feat for a free to play game that's very lenient with chat.

    its not like i was being overly rude o.o' i was just pointing out to people how stupid they were for suggesting that pressing B and then moving left and right was how to strafe in shooter mode

    You called people stupid and they didn't like it? How unexpected.
  • jexsamxjexsamx Member Posts: 2,802 Arc User
    It takes a lot to get silenced in Zone Chat. You wouldn't believe some of the TRIBBLE I've seen spewed in there, and if those idiots didn't get enough ignores to get auto-silenced, you had to have done something pretty egregious to get slapped with one.

    Or you came off as a spam bot somehow, maybe hocking wares at an obnoxious rate or something along those lines.

    I still can't figure out what you want when you say you can't strafe, though. I'm pretty sure you can sidestep in the game in both RPG and Shooter modes without having to fire your gun. In shooter mode, all you have to do to keep your character facing where you want is keep your cursor on your target, unless I'm forgetting something. And in a combat situation where it's actually important to keep your gun facing forward as you describe, you should be doing that automatically because you should be shooting as often as possible anyway. So even if I am mistaken about the sidestep in Shooter mode, it should be a complete non-issue.

    I WANT TO BE ABLE TO WALK LEFT AND RIGHT IN SHOOTER MODE WITHOUT HAVING TO SHOOT MY GUN CONSISTENTLY TO KEEP MY CHARACTER LOOKING FORWARDS

    I THINK you can... I believe by default turning is done via mouse in Shooter mode, leaving A and D for straifing. I'd have to check in game to be sure as I didn't really mess with my keybinds except for the walk key.
    the only colorful words used were Moron, Idiot and Stupid. i figured if they weren't filtered they were allowed for use

    It is entirely possible that because of how said words were used, enough people reported you for one reason or another. If you were calling people that consistantly... then it was probably justified for the temporary mute. All MMOs have a feature to curb verbal abuse in one form or another. Calling something like an NPC a moron for something totally stupid like getting stuck in a wall would be acceptable, but calling a player that could be considered an insult to the player and incur a report.

    Its all in the delivery.

    "That Security Escort is being stupid by running into a wall"
    Perfectly acceptable, and might even have some people agree or even laugh.

    "Player X, stop being a moron for X reason"
    Not so acceptable as that is a direct insult towards another person.

    Also... we are able to turn OFF the language censor in our options menu so... assuming something isn't blocked = ok to use doesn't really work as an argument.

    Ok... I've tested Shooter Mode. A and D don't turn you. It just moves you left and right while still facing forward. You have to manually turn your character via mouse. Alternatively Q and E also move you left and right while still facing forward.
