  • I watched Star Trek: Picard this morning. Then, I rewatched the last 20 minutes of the show. While it was good to see Captain Riker in uniform (foreshadowed from the episode with Troi), the episode - whole series - is a major let down to me. I was expecting the ending to be more spectacular. I found the last episode devoid…
  • Cryptic is raising the price of DOFF items? With the virus shutdown both nationwide in the U.S. and globally, raising the price of items is not the best idea at this time. Many people are already hurting financially from this pandemic. Increase spending on a game compared to spending on meds, doc appointments, and items &…
  • I think that with both ST: Discovery and ST: Picard the cursing is way over the top. I would not have been allowed to watch either show when I was a kid. The other shows had "Dammit, Jim..." or "What the hell..." once or twice in each episode. However, it was not a "look, I'm cursing..." situations like it is with…
  • > @coldnapalm said: > (Quote) > > Did you just attempt to argue from authority about an MMO game using TAXATION expertise?!? You showed off something here alright...but it ain't something good like you may think. 1) I was responding to someone who said that he made an "educated opinion." 2) I responded from a business and…
  • 1) I hold 3 higher education degrees, including Master of Accounting with well over 18 credit hours in taxation laws. 2) What I have suggested, I did not say to apply to all ships. The suggestions should be applied to T6 ships. For newer players, money would still have to be spent in the c-store. However, even existing…
  • That is your opinion. The topic is about the new ships with added designs, stats, and console devices that includes shuttles on the Odyssey ships. The changed stats and consoles (i.e. shuttles) apply to the other designs in each class for the Odyssey, Sovereign, Galaxy, Defiant, NX... ect. If they can add shuttles to…
  • The devs should allow combat shuttles on all starships, most especially the Galaxy Class. Starships, including Voyager and DS9 war, used shuttles/fighters to help protect against and attack foes. Also, I wish they would not limit weapons on each ship. If they can go up to 5 forward, they can also increase the aft to 5…
  • I just watched Episode 2 of Star Trek: Picard. For the first time on any screen, they showed a 5 pipped admiral. The 5 pipped admiral seems to be a departure from following the current rank structure of the U.S. Navy. I have no problem with that particular rank change since it is possible (although remote) that the 5 star…
  • I have not heard of an STO novel. If you are talking about the occasional short stories STO writes, I have not read them all (many, but not all). Those stories do help fans understand the changes that occur in game. There have been slight mentions to activities that took place before 2409 as part of in game interactions…
  • I have watched Star Trek: Picard about 3 times. I am not very thrilled about the tone and other items in the show. First, they have Picard replaying the "Jim, get your command back before its too late." Only, they made Picard an extremely sad and possibly broken old man to make things worse. Second, where was Starfleet…
  • I am having the same problem listed in prior posts. You would think that someone would fix this issue.
  • It is not just PS4. The PC version keeps disconnecting. It times out before getting to the loading screen. The game crashes during most transfers. The game crashes whenever an episode has been started. If you try to use the Safe Mode, force verify... the game client crashes. This has been happening for several months. It…
  • Are there any plans on including other species than the 4 in TOS? I know those were the only ones seen on screen. However, later shows have made cannon that other species like the Trill had been on TOS ships in DS9.
  • The following link goes to the press release of Whitney's death: http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2015/05/04/star-trek-actress-grace-lee-whitney-dies-at-85/?intcmp=latestnews
  • In this thread and another, several people have brought up Spock is not dead in the Prime Universe. Whether or not Spock is dead in the Prime Universe is beside the point. A memorial is to recognize Mr. Nimoy's influence in the lives of his fans and the Star Trek legacy he left. He showed that it is possible to get along…
  • My grandfather smoked cigerettes and a pipe for most of his life. He died in 2003 of lung cancer. I can understand what Mr. Nimoy's family is going through at this time. I wish to express my condolences to Mr. Nimoy's family. Now, he can be at peace and out of pain. I'm sure Gene Roddenberry, Majel Barrett, James Doohan,…
  • I don't normally jump in to a rant. Although the game has been buggy and rubberbanding lately, this situation may not be Cryptic's fault. I'm in the Central Time Zone. A little bit ago we lost some sattilite channels. I reset our boxes; yet some channels are still down. I know they are different systems, but it is possible…
  • I said something similar in another thread. In Star Trek, the flagship is supposed to be the most powerful ship in the fleet. It is the fleet command ship in the absence of an admiral.
  • The Oddyssey-class Enterprise in STO is supposed to be the Flagship of the Federation. That means that every ship looks to the Enterprise to set the standard for the fleet. The Oddyssey-class should be more powerful than other Federation starships. As it stands now, the Oddyssey-class has been knocked down to be an average…
  • I have had the same problem. Transfer to Drazona and the system crashes.:(:confused:
  • No. I had 59,000 in hull after Season 9 went live. I noticed my hull went down after the patch on 05/08/2014.
  • I haven't posted to one of these "Server down" threads until now. However, this is the third time within the last seven days the STO system has gone down, for me. I was in the middle of setting up some Doff assignments when it went down. Now, I'm getting very irritated.:(
  • I have the same problem. The launcher freezes up. I have to force shutdown.:mad:
  • My launcher froze at the same point. I tried it a second time, and it froze without even getting to any patch percentage. At the freeze point, you can not X out of the launcher, nor can you use the cancel button. A forced close is the only way to turn off the launcher.:(
  • I have asked in other posts, including Ask Cryptic, for them to make BOFFs more useful in space. The BOFF powers are generic so it doesn't matter which ones you put at the bridge stations. The only BOFF exceptions are the ones who have leadership and efficiency.
  • After completing the New Fed Tutorial with toons from each division, I have determined that the overall idea of the tutorial is good. The activities that are conducted on the bridge is more in line with Star Trek shows. I wish the rest of the game was more like the tutorial. I do have some suggestions about the tutorial.…
  • I got stuck there, too. I played a Joined Male Trill Science Officer. You can't beam back to the ship or drop the mission. You can't logout and login again to get back into space. Instead, you're put right back on Vega when you login. Your toon is permanently stuck there.:(:confused:
