  • I remember reading somewhere that the Enterprise was actually the Constellation or Constitution renamed after a refit. I have no recollection of where exactly I read this, but I do remember reading it. Since it hasn't been mentioned by anyone else, I can either A) it's not canon and was in a TOS book I read many years ago…
  • Why not tie the exploration mission to the foundry? The foundry is still pretty popular as far as I know, and I'm sure with enough broadcasting, and some " training" videos or something, even more players would take a stab at making a mission. They would likely have to establish some baseline criteria IE: mission should be…
  • I LOVE the idea of turning the " Big dig" and " Breaking the planet" into adventure zones!!!!!!! I have many fond memories of running breaking the planet MANY MANY years ago. This was before the level matching system. I used to beam in as a Captain, and one shot pretty much all the Klingons! With a group of captains the…
  • Also, since he used an ICBM of some sort it already had the engines with enough thrust to get the ship into space, and out of earth orbit. Having to build all that from scratch, AFTER WW3 and 600 million dead I believe it was, the collapse of government, etc, etc, would have been a near impossible endeavor. As it stands it…
  • Couple things to check: Did you turn in the tutorial? Are you sure its 100% completed out of your mission log? When you stand over the active fishing area, does the gauntlet icon light up? If not, its not an active fishing area. Sometimes I have to hit the button a couple time before the " fishing" animation actually…
  • Well now, this is curious! I just looked up updated system requirements YESTERDAY, and couldn't really find anything, and WAAALLAAA today they show up!!! I bought a Win10 I7 machine about a month ago and have been trying to figure out if I need to get a better GPU or not. The card that in it is OK. It uses DX12, but I…
  • I've been playing since day 1 and was skeptical that anything in this promotion would be useful to me. However I bought a 10 pack, opened them, and was pleasantly surprised. I purchased the Crystal Torp that I had missed, bought a console I didn't even existed, and got some turret consumables that seemed pretty awesome.…
  • Whenever I run into something like this I usually go through each setting one at a time and turn them off to see which one solves the problem. Depending on your GPU, Drivers, Memory, etc it could be any number of things. There are many options in the Graphics settings that have very little affect on the actually look of…
  • Could just mount an anti-grav system to it and call it a 23c Phazer Turret for engies. THAT would be funny as F!
  • Going to chime in here for a moment. Have you guys tried the /renderscale1 fix? Some of your screenshots look like doing that will at least help. I noticed yesterday that although the gfx appear better on my older machine, " lighting 2.0" is actually turned off, and greyed out and it says " not supported on this GPU" even…
  • So can someone clarify/verify that the Holo Leeta Boff is A) Account wide B) Single character only. I thought I read it was for a single character, but I may have been mistaken. Also, the " Can only claim each tier 1 time " is pretty lame. If the Leeta Boff is character only, and I have the points, why cant I get her on a…
  • So the points is something I've never seen before.. it says T5 Regent for 10,000 points,, but what if I already HAVE the T5 Regent? Do the points HAVE to be spent on the ship? I guess I will attempt to find this out...
  • I'm hoping the Archon is NOTHING like the Guardian. The Guardian is a HORRIBLE ship in my experience!!! I've tried multiple builds on multiple characters and each one has a different level of suckage, but the suck-o-meter is pegged on all of them!!! I'm looking forward to getting the Archon and trying it out tonight! May…
  • So CBS thinks DarkMatter, and The Expanse are scifi shows that do well on TV? Apparently The Expanse was called " The best show ever" or something like that according to NPR. and Darkmatter is a GREAT show. Both of these shows have small pieces of Star Trek DNA ( ship based story, crew conflict, technobabble) and are quite…
  • Which ones do you have access too? The T6 Galaxy Dreadnaught is a very nice ship. The T6 Oddy is great ship. Battlecruiser is another great ship. Just about all the T6 Cruisers have ups and downs. Is there a list somewhere to know which ones consoles have access too?
  • I love playing my engineers! In space, there is EMPTW and EMPTS. Also Directed Energy Modulation, Empt Inertial Dampeners. To say engineers are " garbage" is ridiculous imo ! On the ground the turrets and drones, and molten earth, and orbital strike are all very nice skills. To this day I have more fun playing my engineer…
  • Tony Stark would be an AWESOME president!!! EVERYONE GETS TO BE IRON MAN AND BLOW STUFF UP
  • I find the expense of much of the new items to be disturbing. Im a casual player with 12 characters and even my 3 " main"s have a hard time finding the resources for some of the new things. Hell,, just when I get enough items to get a rep set, a NEW rep starts and I have to start all over again. Another thing that's…
  • Used to be a hiccup in leveling, where if you didn't spend all your skillpoints the promotion mission wouldn't complete. Not sure it's still their but that's one thing to check. Secondly, the issue MIGHT be because of the skipped missions. If you hover of the skill bar at the top of the screen and click on it, it should…
  • I have to say Charlie looks much better with a " skin" on it, but Alpha is still my pick. Echo is cool but,, not cool enough.
  • So you believe reporting a " game breaking" bug is worth over $100? Sorry, but that's not the way it works. First off, if you are referring to the Rep gear not being upgraded as a " game breaking" bug you have some strange ideas of what " game breaking" actually means. STO on Console is going through the same growing pains…
  • The one ship, so far, that no matter what I do, no matter which character I try it on, no matter what consoles, or weapons I put on it always seems to go BOOM way to often is........ The Guardian! While I love the look of the ship, and just the fact its smaller than the Galaxy it seems to turn worse than the Scimitar! I…
  • I think the So'na wannabe ship could look pretty badass with the correct color scheme and details.
  • Team Alpha: Looks like the secret space ship from an episode of X-Files... Beta is cool looking,, but Alpha is cooler.
  • TMP brought us Enterprise Refit, AND.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gi9wFGxSDYc Which, from a soundtrack perspective lead to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T61RPvrVMdM I believe possibly one of the top 5 greatest theme/open credit songs of any show/movie! Then again, I put more emphasis on soundtrack than most.
  • Never really watched Power Rangers when it was on TV. Was back in the day when going outside and reaking havoc was still a "thing" to do. I'll go see this movie just because it actually looks pretty cool.
  • Franchise: " Back to the moon" by Homer H Hickman, JR. Concept: Secret government agencies try to stop a scientist from revealing the real reason humanity never went back to the moon. Hydrogen 3. A man haunted by his passed and driven by a dream risks everything to borrow the space shuttle Columbia and Pilot it to the…
  • I would throw out one sort of likely suggestions, and one notso likely suggestion: 1) Allow Klingon players access to Fed fleet base assets if Fed fleet leaders allow it. IE: Right now I have 3 Klingon toons. 2 of them aren't even level 60 even through I created them 5+ years ago. I actually quite enjoyed playing my…
  • Not sure about your question, however using the IGNORE function affectively removes said person from affecting you in most ways. Another option is opening the map, and changing instances to get away from said person. If none of those options work, then if multiple people use the REPORT function they will likely get an…
  • WAAAAAAYYY Back at the beginning of this thread someone said " SNR when going to fleet base and on certain maps" Well, I did some studying and found a possible reason. Not ALL maps in STO are being generated by the server ALL the time. Some maps which are never in use are shutdown, or in standby mode, or whatever you want…
