Nice pics, nikkyvix. Thanks! Does anyone have in-game pics of what the current KDF Featured Project looks like? I'd like to know whether it looks good enough to be worth slotting.
I think it actually has worked as Cryptic intended. Do you honestly think that if it wasn't working as they intended that Cryptic wouldn't have done something to change it weeks ago? I suspect that, due to the huge dilithium sinks that starbases are, the number of people buying Zen to convert into dilithium is likely far…
The event is how you get the dilithium and Fleet Mark rewards from doing the mission. Without the event the Investigate Officer Reports missions are just a means to rack up accolade points. Without the event you don't get the rewards. It sounds like you don't understand how the event works. The mission and the event go…
The Officer Reports event is far from useless. It's a quick and easy way to earn 1440 raw dilithium and 50 Fleet Marks, both of which are highly relevant to level 50 characters. On the other hand, it's been months since I last did a galaxy Tour. 1 million EC for an hour's work is great for noob players, but I make more…
I've been doing Colony Invasions during most of the events over the past few days and I am definitely getting the extra Marks. As franc275 said, it's very easy to tell, as you get an extra 2 Marks for killing Mook during the event. If a mission that you started during the event finishes after the event is over you will not…
While I agree that some sort of indicator icon would help immensely, it is possible to tell which faction a doff belongs to. You just have to be very observant and look very very carefully at the background behind the doff, to see whether they have the UFP or KDF seal.
That's not true. You can contribute bound DOFFs. I have done so many times. The bound DOFFs from Colonial Support missions work, as does the Shakespeare quartermaster DOFF. His problem is he is probably trying to donate a DOFF that is on active duty. Only DOFFs on reserve duty can be used.
Well said. Some of the Foundry missions are better than the 'pro' content. Certainly better than anything that's been added officially since the game went f2p.
His points are valid. The endgame content in STO really is a pointless, mindless grindfest. And I think it's intentional. They want players to grow quickly bored, so they'll pay for new toon slots so they can start the whole level-up process again (and again), and then buy yet more TRIBBLE from the c-store for their new…
I guess that you don't consider all the new end-game Fleet content "much to do", despite it doubling the number of end-game team PvE missions that are available.
Perhaps they're not random at all. Perhaps they're related to your specific PC hardware & software configuration. I don't get random crashes. I don't get crashes at all.
Does this fix retroactively adjust the already-incorrect leaderboard values? The values for some of the members of my fleet, including myself, are too low by tens of thousands.
My desktop is ready to use in 15 seconds, period. That includes all of the startup processes. My system has a quad core running at 4.2GHz, 16Gb of RAM, and a SSD for Windows 7 to boot from. If your startup processes are taking 5-10 minutes to finish, something is very wrong.
Similar story here. I went directly from XP to 7 (six months ago for me). I used XP for over a decade. I hadn't even realized it had been that long until just now. Shows how stable XP was and that its replacements weren't really needed. I only went to Windows 7 when I built a new system and had no choice but to use 7.…
Well, the OP was asking for support for an OS that Cryptic does not list as being supported. You have a valid point in that he's doing Cryptic a favor by giving them a heads up, but he was also asking for help with something that he's not entitled to receive any help for, since the OS is not supported. At least not yet. As…
When you can say that you've been using Windows 8 for 6 months without a single crash and that everything you run on it works flawlessly, then come back and say so. Until then, it, and your use of it, lacks a track record to make any claims at being a stable OS, much less a more stable one than Windows 7.
Windows 95 was "4.0", and so was Windows NT, which was released before Windows 95. So, by order of release, Windows NT has prior claim to the 4.0 number. Windows 98 was "4.1", and Windows ME was "4.9". Windows 2k was "5.0" and "5.1" and so was Windows XP. Make any sense? No. It gets better: Windows Vista is "6.0" and…
If the item is showing in the store then your tier is obviously high enough. Whether you can buy a displayed item depends solely on the current stock quantity (aka provisioning) and if you have sufficient fleet credits and dilithium. If you meet all of the requirements and still cannot buy something that is clearly shown…
NT and 2k are Windows 4.x (look at the internal version number). NT was the first 32-bit OS from Microsoft. All versions of Windows prior to NT were built over DOS and suffered from the DOS limits on memory usage. Yes, even Win9x. NT removed those limits and paved the way for today's much more powerful desktops. Before NT,…
Even if you disregard the driver issues, Vista was a crappy OS. Why? Because it was a silly resource hog. It required at least 4x as much memory and CPU as XP, ran slower no matter how much RAM and CPU you threw at it, and offered no must-have features in return. In short, it was a bloated pig. Microsoft is known for…
