Not only that, but Pike had a very similar hat in The Cage.

It's the old Mastermind board game that we used to play in grade school back in the olden days. 1) Set Digit 1 to 1 and test. 2) If It's correct, move to Digit 2 3) If the location is correct, set Digit 2 to 1 and test. 4) Repeat until you find one correct number 5) Go to the fist Digit you don't have yet and repeat until…

Touche. Although, while it was nice to see Leonard for two final movies, his role in Into Darkness seemed kind of gratuitous. "Hi, Spock, this is Spock. I'm wondering if Spock ever met someone named Khan." Kind of sounds like Rickey Henderson.

Agreed. It was an interesting conceit, but they would have been better off with just a straight remake/reboot.
-
That's not an unfair assessment. It is clear that Abrams and Orci intended for their universe to be parallel to the prime universe and branch off at the Narada incursion, but there were already disconnects from the pre-existing prime universe prior to the incursion that didn't add up -- the look and feel of the Kelvin, the…

Actually used to debate this with my friend back in high school, just after TNG came on the air. At the time we pretty much felt that a Starfleet starship shouldn't be carrying marines as a vessel of exploration. But Enterprise made a compelling case for a ship carrying marines. At first, Archer wasn't too keen on the…

The KT Enterprise is more advanced because of the Narada's incursion. All we've seen it right so far is a 25th century Borg enhanced Romulan ship, and a black ops Federation dreadnought three times it's size and firepower. Granted, we know it gets destroyed by a weird swarm of kamikaze ships in Beyond, but that's also not…

And behold, a pale starship, and his name who captained him was death, and doom followed with him!

Most games have an option to turn down or turn off particle effects. Does STO not have such an option?

I am whelmed. Not over. Not under. Just whelmed.

Character Thomas Moore@Aucka Lukaum. BOFF Brenda Roberts, Tactical/Command. Default abilities under the "skills" tab are set to Hammer and Anvil, Strategic Analysis, Return Fire, and Plasma Grenade. This BOFF is one of the ones that is used frequently in my 2-BOFF away teams, and seems to frequently reset to the same set…

Thanks for the suggestions and links, everyone! Lots of new stuff to try out!

For "pure" science ships, the Pathfinder and Scryer both seem to fit that bill nicely. If I ever get the hang of flying the Pathfinder I may upgrade it to the new Fleet version. I guess it's not really that surprising, I've never really been good with the magic-using classes in other MMOs, either. I have a very Leroy…
-
Yeah, the only difference I see in equipment arrangement is that the Pathfinder has more engineering and fewer tactical console slots, but that's largely moot when using a lot of universals anyway. I will also have to modify your BOFF assignments a little. The Pathfinder has a Lt. tactical and a Lt. universal, so I won't…

I have no shame. If I act like an as****e, I'll wear it :)

I got to play around with mine a little bit before work. I basically just transferred the loadout that I use in my Tempest and my Armitage into it, worked in a couple pilot abilities in the hybrid seat, and let it rip. Like the posters above said, it's really, really fast. Also extremely nimble. Without any buffs running I…
-
I guess it's all neither here nor there. As the old saying goes, "Fool me once, shame on me..." But you're right, the sale excludes the new pilot ships, so I have no legitimate complaint. One thing I would like to know, though, is how to get some tears that taste like tomato. Otherwise, disregard the miniature rant. It's…

I'm not sure what your basis is for classifying anything except the most current 11 console, 12 ability C-Store ship as a "shuttle." Look, I get that people want the best, and want to put up the highest numbers. I'm in that boat with you. I want to push my DPS as high as I can possibly get it, for my own satisfaction. It's…

Yeah, my second go-to ship is the Tactical Command Battlecruiser. It's actually a better ship, all things considered, for pure damage output, and has similar handling. I think I just prefer the size and iconic look of the Excelsior. Of course, a Constitution or even a JJ-Prise would be even MORE iconic, but I'm not getting…

Would it be possible to billboard it the way a lot of engines do grass and plants for ground environments? In that case it seems like what it looks like in the back would be moot. Just a thought.

The "expensive" part is probably the important one, since Kate Mulgrew does voice work for other games, notably the Dragon Age series.

Leave it to Beaver....

That's kind of what I'm after in a roundabout way.

Sigh... a little bit of investigation shows that, indeed, the name of a gold selling site can be pulled from the letters used in that phrase, in sequence. Amazing coincidence.

Since there is nothing actionable in what I said, I will just quote it here. Our fleet has a global channel for communication between Fed/KDFfleets, Neverwinter, etc. I had just finished an STF in which someone I didn't know had sent me a friend invite. I posted into our global fleet chat, word for word quote, "I just got…

I don't know how you could consider "negative connotations" in the word mook without being a mook yourself. It's a common enough term. We use it to refer to all our companions/henchmen/etc in the various MMOs we play. Common usage: "I'll be right there, I am sending my mooks out on missions," or, "My mook pulled all the…

That makes sense, sort of. But I wonder do they ban everyone who uses the word "MMO" in chat? Seems kind of weird. Anyway, it's all rather funny, provided I get my account back in a timely manner :P
