In STO your character/captain name isn't as important due to the @handle, which is the main method of identifying different players' characters. In TERA, your name is your identity which is why it makes sense that it would be more costly to change it. As far as STO being the best MMO out there, that's disputable. There are…

Just another example of why PWE is going to TRIBBLE Cryptic over in the end. Heck, even EA sends out notices when they update their EULA/ToS on things.

Won't be that way forever. Cryptic has already said that they will be phasing out the standalone launcher for STO and moving to Arc/Steam only.

It's still a free tier 5 with comparable stats to a lot of tier 5 C-Store ships. Just because you get it free doesn't mean it's worthless at endgame. When I was using it on my Science Rom I was able to handle all the endgame content with no trouble, including Elite STFs. Scimitar is a 10 console ship which is usually only…

The Ha'nom is available for free from leveling, I used it on my Science Romulan. There is also a Feet and Mirror variant of the Ha'nom.

Romulans have had a decent tier 5 science ship for a while now, it's called the Ha'nom.

Source? /10char

It will likely be similar to the Obelisk carrier which was added to the Fleet Spire, especially since the Dyson Science Destroyers come equipped with unique set items that can only be obtained via ownership of that ship. If Cryptic didn't add them to the Spire, then players would be unable to ever claim the full set from…

I know what you mean. I'm on daily but running the same things repeatedly tends to get dull when you're doing it alone, especially when it comes to filling up the fleet projects. There have been times when I've been tempted to just find a new fleet, but I've already invested too much into this one to just leave it behind.

Nice collection you have. I've only been on Steam since Feb 3, 2006, but I've got quite a bit of time put into my games. The top five alone add up to 2,061 hours, and if I include everything else it only goes up to 3,377.4 hours. I guess this just goes to show that Steam is pretty useful for keeping track of how much of…

I have mixed feelings on it. On one hand the events do last longer now and during the weekend, so we have more time to take advantage of them. On the other, because it's bi-weekly it could take a couple months just to see a bonus event cycle back around. While the hourly events were great for some people, Cryptic's stats…

In the future, all titles under PWE will no longer support their respective stand-alone launchers. In this case you would need to start using either Arc or Steam to launch STO. Personally I already use Steam since I already use it for other titles, not to mention the STO packages I've obtained through Steam such as the…

And I thought I was overdoing it with my 81 Steam games. Got anything good in your library?

I use Steam for a significant number of my games on PC, and I've never had any issues with it. If your downloads are taking longer than you think they should, make sure you have the download region set to the closest one to your location. Using the wrong one can cause the downloads to take quite a bit longer than expected.…

I fail to see where you can make any connection between ships in Star Trek Online and EVE Online, other than the fact they both fly in space. Combat in EVE is significantly different that the simple combat system used in STO. In EVE you need to manage optimal range, turret falloff, transversal and tracking speed, all while…

Leveling up used to take a significantly longer time, so much in fact that you had to re-run missions numerous times just to get to the right level to unlock the next mission. The way it is now seems to be fairly well balanced. Roughly one or two levels per completed mission, so you should hit 50 around the time you get…

The code was patched before LoR was launched if I remember correctly. All the links on how to do it seem to back that up as well, so there's a new way that people have found and it looks like they're keeping it to themselves this time.

You mean the two Romulan females on Drozana Station wearing the Khan top with the Orion bikini bottom and the TOS Romulan female tall boots? They like to hang around there and act like they're impressive for exploiting a bug in the game. Too bad Cryptic doesn't appreciate people abusing exploits, even if it is just to get…

You should probably be more specific when you use the term "Connie" when talking about that specific saucer model. In STO, "Connie" is usually used for the Constitution class used for the Enterprise from The Original Series and movies. The saucer section on the Heavy Cruiser in STO was from the Constellation class seen in…

If you use it to buy something, anything, it is a form of currency.

1. Change instance to a low population one. 2. Activate ALL the Qs! 3. ???? 4. Profit like a Ferengi! In all seriousness though, when people run off after activating a Q it doesn't always mean they are just ditching it. Sometimes people like to run multiples at once to get it done faster. I myself go to low pop instances…

How about.... No.
