Well, my Andorian will have a field day with that ground set - I already have him set up with cold stuff.Get the Forums Enhancement Extension!
Like special weapons from other Star Trek games? Wondering if they can be replicated in STO even a little bit? Check this out: https://forum.arcgames.com/startrekonline/discussion/1262277/a-mostly-comprehensive-guide-to-star-trek-videogame-special-weapons-and-their-sto-equivalents

How dissapointing.
It says to be announced tomorrow, I'm sure waiting one day won't kill you.0 -
Ground set looks interesting. Still hoping for a cryo mortar kit module in the future.This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.0

they updated the dates...yay!
awesome for LD sweaters. woot!
and not looking forward to another glowie weapon. they all just glow too much. if yall could turn down the glow a bit id be down, but as it is, the last set we got is an awful pink color and its just way too much.
anyway...the set? looks neat...but what gets me is the "very high fire and cold resist" for the armor...what? who da?meh

Hopefully the bat'leth will have actually viable combat scripting in it unlike all the other bat'leths in the game, something with a closer like J'Ula's mek'leths (which unfortunately Aakar's set lacks). The set itself looks interesting even though chances are the bat'leth will be useless and the only viable weapon in it the pistol.0

Agimus, the evil sentient computer, featured on one of the winter sweaters, makes me wish STO would be able to bring back Jeffery Combs to voice the character for an upcoming episode featuring the new Starfleet decks that was shown off recently, maybe onboard one of the recent T6 ships.
(I'd say on our ships, but considering some of our ships have the Nightingale bridge, without any corridors, that would render them moot for the mission)0 -
the real quest is.... will any of the bugs be fixed in q's wonderland.
of course not. they're features. silly meThere is no QA there is only ZUUL
called out the bs and got BANNED. and i would gladly do it again.0 -

If you cant announce the new ship AND the event at the same time then you should not announce the event either!
Especially when some of us CANT watch the Ten Forward Weekly!.
im in agreement. stupid move to be honest.meh

In my case (though I did not complain), timing (the stream is in the middle of the time I'm at work and I have a non-tech-friendly job), but also that I am strongly a visual rather than auditory learner... trying to glean information from a spoken presentation is hellish. And my living situation does not allow me to have a silent background while watching videos.
I didn't mention it here because:
1) We were promised a written release also.
2) We all know how ships work, and any unique details about this ship can be deduced from the in-game statistics once it becomes available.
However... the recent trend that the devs have been following, of ONLY releasing things in the streams, is starting to become very annoying and disconcerting. Such as questions I have about the EV suit change which have (apparently) "been addressed in last week's stream", etc, according to people replying to threads here on the forums, but they won't actually say what was said in writing, they just say "go watch the video".0 -

It probably doesn't help that none of the Ten Forward Weekly's from the past two months have been uploaded to their YT channel. Maybe Kael can enlighten us as to why this is.Epohh Vindaloo and beer milkshakes for everyone

I'd missed that, but then I always catch the replay on Twitch on a Friday morning (if I feel like watching it) as the stream is at 00:30 in the UK.unclegoldie wrote: »It probably doesn't help that none of the Ten Forward Weekly's from the past two months have been uploaded to their YT channel.

And you ignored the entire rest of the post where I explained why I don't.
Also the replay time that you mentioned... is similarly bad for me (it would translate to 16:30 on Thursday in my time zone).
But even if I was watching live, the issues with it being spoken rather than written, etc. are still there.0 -
Will the CRM 200 be added at any point as a potential alternate weapon choice for the 4-piece set bonus?

I don't re-watch Livestreams I miss either. I don't join them often when they are live as they start at what is 00:30am in my timezone.
I'll also add that one reason I don't re-watch a livestream.... it isn't "live". One of the appeals of livestreams is active participation - posting comments in the text box in response to what is shown/revealed, as it is shown/revealed, and interacting with other players. Obviously, none of that is possible on a re-watch.0 -
The reveal was embarrassing anyway. Even after numerous people mentioning that his mic volume was too low we forged on without being able to hear him or others yelling at you at 10X the volume.0

It's the [redacted] class......what IS the ship?
www.twitch.tv/videos/1221454248
Winter ship reveal at around 41:13 when Thomas Marrone accidentally tells Kael to apply the [redacted] template...
It's a cruiser, so has all 4 cruiser commands - ENG/sci ship, and the blog for it will be posted on Friday
- Seating = Commander ENG; Lt Cmdr UNI/MW; Lt Cmdr SCI; Lt TAC; Ensign ENG
- Cloak
- Console - Great Material Continuum = passive boosts for power levels & drain; ability = 1k aoe damage up to 10 foes per sec for 15 seconds & then temporary HP for self & team

No, it is the one that looks like a golf club with warp nacelles on (or near) the shaft (the Eisenberg class), that in the show is called the USS Nog.
I would have probably preferred the toilet seat (which I think they call Saturn class) since that one is a science spearhead (a type I have come to like from flying the Crossfield and for which there are apparently no account-unlock ships), while the holiday one is a rather versatile but otherwise ordinary cruiser with miracle worker and command seating, even though the toilet seat looks sillier from a functional point of view (that huge gap in the center serves no apparent function and would just serve to waste material in its construction and time for the crew to get anywhere on it).
This is what it looks like (along with a few even dumber looking designs):

Don't tell anyone, the new Infinoty starship is really an Ori warship:
Starfleet Command Directive: Destroy all Ori vessels.
To be honest, I think all of these new designs are quite weird, I prefer my traditional ships that don't look like parts can be left behind in deep space.
Helm Officer: Captain Sir, the port nacelle fell off when we departed orbit.
Captain: Again! That's the 4th time this week and it's only Tuesday! Engineering, build up some pylons to hold the ship together!
