  • IMHO the OP is on to a really good idea. I'm personally waiting for the day these gamble boxes are made illegal, even if it means the game shuts down, which I regard as nothing more than a scare tactic from the white knights. OPs idea is a way to offer both to the player. There was also an idea about expanding lobi to…
  • No I will not be getting them. I don’t support chance box gambling scams. I would have gladly bought both the Connie and D7 had they been in the C-Store.
  • I can't get in the game. Launcher won't even get to the Engage button. I've been having issues with lag and disconnects for the past week. This is by far the worst it's been.

  • Sorry for the delay in following up. Thank you very much for the help.
  • Hello, I have items missing in a couple areas. Toon Name: B'ryan@brybenz3k This is my KDF toon and just today I received an expired exchange item. However the item is the Black Square and is not claimable. As I've listed a variety of Doffs and Gear, I am not entirely sure what the item is supposed to be. Toon Name:…
  • I've been trying to log in for over 2 hours now. Launcher won't even load. Goes to a black screen that reads "Loading. Please wait." where nothing happens. I've tried restarting the thing multiple times. There is clearly an issue with the login servers. Is anyone from Cryptic working on this problem? Do they even know?…
  • DCed during beam out. I'm going to miss that toon. I hope she didn't feel any pain. :(
  • There were too many playable alien ships in game the moment the bug ship was offered. I could get on board with the OPs idea of being able to alter the visuals to a generic escort/cruiser/sci/carrier ship that was faction appropriate. It's a win-win. The player flying the faction inappropriate ship can continue to defecate…
  • I don't personally care for PvP and can't think of a single person who does, so I'd prefer development efforts be spent on other areas. I'm encouraged about the redevelopment of sector space. While I respect that you can't reveal all your plans just now, I do hope they include additional quality of life improvements, and a…
  • Hey Matt, ESD and Starfleet Academy are/were a disaster. Other zones weren't nearly as bad. I ended up going to the Captain's Table for loot transactions and banking, much smoother there. Eventually the zones will get sorted, most likely because enough people rage quit that the servers will stabilize. Your party popper…
  • Yes, they are gambling. The 'pre approved list' of items they provide as consolation prizes exists only to keep them in that grey area of technicality. Otherwise those items would be made available in the C-Store for easy purchase. It's gambling, it's ploy to grab as much cash as possible from the poor souls that either…
  • Are those 11 Romulan missions coming back? I really enjoyed playing those, and still repeat them from time to time. If they are still being remastered, great, but if they are gone for good then that is terribly unfortunate.
  • I share the OPs feelings and frustrations with the current state of the game, and its problems. While I could never be called a whale by any measure, I too have stopped spending money on this game. I'll be embracing the Free-To-Play lifestyle until there's improvement, or the game folds. I hope for the former, I really do.…
  • 1. 15 2. For the most part, I haven't had any negative encounters. For the few I have come across, usually players wound up waaaaaay to tight, I'd encourage them to simply take a moment, think of baby epohhs, and breathe... 3. Communicate like they did earlier this week. It was wonderful. Perhaps they could schedule a…
  • For your consideration #DeltaRising
  • New Ticket ID: 2,766,466 Resubmitted via in game Report a Bug tool per request. If anyone at Cryptic/PWE who sees this can be of help, I'd be very grateful. Thank you kindly in advance for your assistance.
  • Looks like my purchase boycott will be coming to an end once the Guardian is available for standalone purchase. Love the Boff layout. Any chance of it being able to Saucer sep? From the pics posted it looks like it has sets of impulse engines on the saucer and the star drive. Please give it the ability to separate. Thank…
  • While I enjoyed "Mindscape", "Reunion" was just about everything I was dreading. I will freely admit to being a bit biased going into it because I just cannot stand the Talaxians. With that said, here are my impressions. Opening with the Kazons, good so far. I am a bit confused as to how they managed to get so far away…
  • I really enjoyed this mission. It was a great way to show off the Voyager interior. The "dream" effects were neat, and I liked the dynamic corridors. I did feel like a giant nerd because I noticed we were still in the meld before Tuvok did because the crew were in the wrong uniforms. :) I did run into the issue of the cut…
  • There's not enough value in this pack for me to justify the price. The KDF and Romulan ships look nice, but presently I have 1 KDF and 1 Romulan toon that just collect dust. No point in purchasing ships for them just so they can run the same missions that I'll run on my Fed. The Fed ships are just unbelievably ugly.…
  • I'm more concerned about the competitive gap between T5U and T6 ships. As it stands, T5U will have: - 1 less Mastery Level - No Starship Trait - No extra Boff slot - No Specialist Boff Slot The Specialist Boff can stay with the T6, but the T5U should get everything else, especially if this is going to cost us money. I'm…
  • First, I'd like to say thank you for finally releasing this information. It's nice to have some answers at long last, and I'm fine with some of the cost details still TBD. I am extremely disappointed with the benefit comparison between T5-U ships and T6. I find it hard to believe that T5-U ships will truly be "competitive"…
  • I'd like to express my appreciation to Geko for participating in this thread. It was a pleasant surprise, and I hope something that continues to occur. I also liked this blog, it felt like the first "real" information relating to X2. The new skill point system for levels 51-60 sound interesting, in a good way. The topic of…
  • This part of the blog is causing me great concern: "Neelix and his wife Dexa have gathered hundreds of Talaxians together to create a community, and that community is expanding. They have great plans for the future, but they may need assistance to see them come to fruition." I WILL NOT, I REFUSE to help that aggravating,…
  • Edit: This sounded way to combative against those who are critical of the OPs idea. I didn't mean to sound like I was picking a fight. So I'll just leave it with this: To the OP: Sounds like something interesting and genuinely different to play. I hope you're successful in getting it created; I look forward to giving it a…
  • I don't have a torch or a pitchfork, but I can't say I haven't price checked them on Amazon. The only new information contained in this blog, my interpretation of it anyway, is that they are holding back on the details while they find that magical point between acceptable price gouging and player revolt. The rest of it was…
  • I'm also having this issue. Game crashes out to the desktop whenever I try to access the tailor. This is unbelievably annoying and I can't believe this got past QA. Has anyone heard of when we might be expecting a fix? Actually soon? Next Thursday? or Cryptic "Soon"? Thank you.
  • I'm in agreement with this. It does seem to me like Cryptic is exploiting authors a bit here with a "You don't want grind, then go make it yourself" approach. I personally have nothing against the foundry with the exception of the mission search window, which is just awful. However it's hard not to believe that Cryptic is…
  • Not an insult at all. :) To answer your question, I do want to be thrown into an exploration mission. Currently I go to a star cluster, enter an unknown system, there's a brief mission overview and away I go to do what needs to be done. I understand what Kirksplat is trying to do by keeping the mission long enough to…
