Yep, it's still broken. I only get Ganalda and Bajor, no third location. Unable to complete with a KDF character. :(
-
I've been experiencing this glitch myself on Risa now. (Just returned to STO after having been away for a few years, so can't say how old/new it may be.) It's very intermittent and inconsistent. Just leaving the area and returning a bit later can fix it in that area, like a texture is just not loading and later does. I…

Yep, the limitation on 3D flight is a design decision. Heck, you can take a hero with a flight power in Champions and fly straight up, no problem. As far as the game engine goes, ("The Cryptic Engine" the last time I recall it ever being named/referred to,) it's an engine designed and maintained by Cryptic which is the…

I just logged out due to that same problem myself. I was on Risa, still had some of my summer gear equipped. Found it near impossible to change back to fighting gear as every time I tried to move an item in inventory, the game just about dumped me out. Long SNRs. Maybe I won't come back to play today.

I went with the 'No opinion' option. For myself, I don't really have any desire for the skant. I doubt I'd ever have a use for it. But I've no objection to it being added for those who'd like it.
-
Well . . . personally I think this ranks right up there for 'most ludicrous plot twist.' I haven't bought any comics for a while now, and this certainly isn't going to change that any. (Poor Coulson -- he'll be crushed when this comes out.)
-
I don't know that there's really much for Cryptic to gain (and let's face it -- they want to gain something -- namely our money) from giving a larger stipend to Lifetime Subs. At least, not -only- LTS. Now, if you change that a bit to giving a larger stipend to all Gold Memberships -- that could be of benefit to both PWE…

Hmm. Given that it's all an 'artificial' ecosystem created by Q for his/our entertainment, I think some folks may be overthinking this -- just a little.
-
Why not just make it so we can throw snowballs at each other, but they -don't- knock anyone down (or cause any actual game-mechanic inducing states)? I mean, just make it cause a satisfying 'splat!' of fluffy snowflakes for a moment when someone is hit. Visual effect without any unwanted hindrance. I suppose some will say…
-
The main issue I have with it is that it's not really a television series. It's a CBS All Access exclusive. If it were coming to broadcast TV, sure, but . . . an obscure in-house streaming subscription service? I don't think so.
-
What I want to see is for it to be an actual broadcast television show. But this is not that. It's a CBS All-Access exclusive (which may be distributed internationally to some television markets, likely only in places where CBS isn't able to sell streaming video subs of some manner). I was excited for a bit, then I read…

Wishing you would link the images in the OP. Neither is really my top choice, but I guess this is the best it's going to get.
-
Had to go with Alpha. I like the nod to the Galaxy design in the Beta, but the saucer is way too much clam-shell and the whole thing just looks compressed from front to rear. Needs to be stretched out longer. (For the record, I'd like to see rounder saucers, more like the old Constellations. Also, ships that don't look…
-
Meaning no disrespect, but I didn't actually vote as IMO, this really has no chance of ever coming to pass in any reality remotely like our own. There are so many reasons why, from CBS not wanting frankenships in a game branded with the Trek name to the simple fact that it would take an enormous amount of resources from…
-
The main things I want are the same things I had hoped for this year: Swimming and some sort of snorkeling and/or SCUBA diving event. The hula skirt sounds like a fun costume addition for Risa, but I would also hope for a proper hula dance to go with it. (Actually watch some real hula dancing and do it well -- think of it…
-
I'd say we have at least one more poll than is really wanted/needed.
-
The traits would be nice. Keep the clothing KDF exclusive. I'd like to have the racial traits though.
-
Yay, they fixed it! I can login now! :smiley:
-
I had this happen to me too. Unfortunately, it was on a new, low-level character and I needed to get to Khitomer for my next mission. At Warp 5. <sighs> Free transwarp is not such a good thing when it's in the opposite direction you wish to go.
-
This is precisely the issue, IMO. Bottom line is, it's a form of griefing. It's also an exploit, because, as some have already stated, combat abilities (including Cover Shield) are disabled on Risa. So the people doing this are exploiting some kind of weakness/glitch in the system in order to do something that is supposed…
-
I know you're probably tired of hearing this -- but I promise I'll stop asking about it once it's (really) fixed! Trill Spots -- Last year, you did fix the neck spots for the base 'Host' pattern, but you -didn't- fix the 'Host 2' and 'Host 3' patterns -- they both still have large gaps at the neck. Please fix ALL of the…
-
Agreed! More spaces would be best. But if you can't do that, then make the castles dissolve a bit sooner. It's rough on folks just starting out when you have to -earn- the ability to kick over an existing castle. (Or just give everyone that ability from the start, perhaps.)
-
FWIW, I agree with your assessment of the KDF-side dialog. I've had to cringe and bear it with my Orion, as that's the only KDF character I even play. That said, IMO, that's really a separate issue. I don't see where it should preclude adding another race to the KDF, as long as that race 'fits' in terms of story/background…
-
Well, you know what they say, "You are what you eat!" ;)
-
This. As someone who started out growing up watching TOS reruns, I totally understand the 'crude, barbaric, not-so-intellectual' angle on Klingons. That's really the way they started out. It wasn't until Worf started playing a bigger part in TNG that suddenly they got retconned and the whole 'warriors out for honor'…

It looks like Cogent is still there in my traces, but the numbers are good so far: 7 18 ms 23 ms 15 ms bbr01sgnwmi-bue-5.sgnw.mi.charter.com [96.34.0.55] 8 21 ms 19 ms 20 ms be4309.rcr21.dtw04.atlas.cogentco.com [38.122.60.49] 9 24 ms 23 ms 23 ms be2006.ccr21.cle04.atlas.cogentco.com [154.54.5.9] 10 36 ms 35 ms 43 ms…

Great post, IMO! I find myself very much in agreement. Particularly with the statement, "There are no "ya guys." There are just a bunch of Star Trek Online players. The problem is not the game. The problem is there are some players who think they are Feds, or KDF, or Roms. You are not. You are just STO players." IMO,…

Actually, it started on June 5th last year. No idea if they'll be shooting for a similar time-frame this year though. Time will tell.
-
Novonovi -- thank you so much for sharing that! It sounded kind of odd, and I still have no idea why it worked, but it did! I logged in with a working character, set World Detail to the Minimum setting, and voila! I was able to log in with the previously non-functional characters. Once I'd gotten past that hurdle, I was…

I get the "An error occurred while transferring . . . " requester too, since trying to log those characters in failed earlier. As you said, neither normal nor 'safe' login work. Updated the video drivers to the latest (GeForce 350.12) and, as expected, no change. :(
