Lag and Bugs I think are temporary... but the issue I've found that is causing me to care less and less is the power creep. I feel the game is just outpacing my ability to remain competitive doing the content required to remain competitive... Maybe it's the grind but I just feel like I keep playing to improve my ship/char…
The dev tracker was all I really used from the old forums and then would browse STO General Discussions... now I just hang out on reddit because these new forums are just... awkward :(
glad to know I wasn't the only one confused! I was looking all over for them... I love the different outfits available but they really need to improve the tailor. I'd love an option to "try on" outfits before buying them to see if I really like them or not.
As long as those infinite combinations fall within what you believe are socially and morally acceptable... correct? I'm confident we could find more amoral "combinations" than the relatively narrow beliefs our society views as "moral". While it may be old fashioned I think the "Golden Rule" will do more to resolve our…
"Groundbreaking addition"? Wow... I'm sorry I passionately disagree. I strongly support a person's right to be with whomever they choose, I personally found the way they represented that TRIBBLE couple to be quite offensive. The "over protective" girlfriend was simply rude, mean and overbearing in her hyper sensitivity…
EXACTLY!!! Homosexuality (or non-heterosexuality to be more accurate) is a very passionate topic and I can respect the writer wanting to address that topic. But... they way it was done was just so bad. The overall storytelling has been pretty weak but this really makes me want to just stick to the queues or skip all the…
I'm sorry I have to agree with this... To me it's offensive in how it portrays a TRIBBLE couple. Here's a tip guys, not every TRIBBLE couple is made of one feminine woman and one "grumpy TRIBBLE" I hate that stereotype and wish it would just burn in the depths of hades! The whole Iconian storyline feels very shallow, and…
I don't think it should be too much to expect that we actually have to participate in this highly publicized Iconian war. These were some great suggestions OP and hopefully they can come up with some ideas to make it seem like we're actually at war... The idea of losing a system causing more frequent encounters in that…
T5-Connie... not upgradeable to T5-U or a fleet version... Because the rule is they can't have a feasible end game Connie and T5 is starting to get to that point. :P
The issue with statements like "People wanted this, we gave it to them, then they complained about it" are that "the people" or "they" are never the same people. No single person said "I want more functional ship interiors" and then in the next breath followed up with "Don't require me to go to my ship interior to do…
I just have to throw out there that while these Tales of the War are cool and well written... they just don't seem to fit in with what I'm experiencing in the game. They paint this picture of a grim, hard fought war we're not on the winning side of... they're well written and add some great flavor to the latest season…
It really is curious why they would not try to monetize those old ships? I understand they want to remove them from the event but why not put them in the Lobi store or Cstore? They already exist and if people want them, and would pay for them, why not take their money? I'd like to suggest they do that with every "limited"…
I get they need to make money, we all need money... and I would gladly pay for things that aren't ships! Character customization is a huge thing for people... I hate to put it out there but how many people would have paid Zen for swimsuits? That was a huge thing... great we didn't have too but there are other ways to make…
If you have the ship already, it will be an account unlock... SalamiInferno posted a clarification earlier in this thread that contained this info They really need to update their press release with this new information as it should resolve some concerns...
This is understandable and I appreciate this information being shared. While I think you might have overstated how "powerful" those previous event ships, I understand that doesn't really change the situation. One other suggestion... would it be possible to continue to provide some variations in rewards used for that event…
Not cool guys... not cool at all... I've been banking pearls since this event was introduced, rolling them over year over year since I didn't care about the previous ships. I appreciate the concept of "everyone being on equal footing" but honestly, that doesn't make any amount of sense. I've grinded for 3 years, saving up…
Sorry I was running my Dyson BZ daily and since it was crashing to the desktop every 5-10 minutes it took all the playtime I had JUST to finish that... Once they fix the crashing and the lag I'll have more game time participate in their delta event. If you want to be disappointed in someone, be disappointed for those…
The question the devs are asking is "What can we do to NPCs in order to drive ship sales"... Fun, balanced game play is secondary to selling ships... I'm guessing they've pushed the concept of upping HP as far as they can, the next tactic will be to introduce ships with unique abilities specifically designed to counter new…
If I had to take a wild stab in the dark... I'd say they're going to release their "cryptic designed" ships first, then release an iconic ship bundle after that containing pilot spec slots. I'm sure a BOP, Defiant and something Rommie will be coming in the next ship release bundle... Personally I want to see a T6…
Just wanted to throw out there I saw constant crashing in the Dyson ground battlezone too... I submitted a few crash reports but according to zone chat I wasn't the only one. Hopefully these other issues get resolved too
No... Cutscenes are fine for story missions but queued content is very much "action" oriented. If you have a good rhythm going those cut scenes can be very distracting... Unfortunately I think the devs love them so everything is going to have cutscenes moving forward.
Or... when the temporal agent shows up to give us the tesseract to take with us back in time to give to our younger selves as a delta recruit, we could just turn towards the perserver then and ask him how to defeat the iconians. When that temporal guy showed up in cold storage I was like... "Seriously!!! Hey can I just ask…
This could be cool if it they could create it as a type of mercenary faction... You could in essence be "factionless" and have access to all the missions. Somewhat like a universal faction... Once the governments collapse due to sheer incompetence (seriously nobody thought to ask the preservers about the iconians BEFORE…
By "earn" you mean simply queuing up with people from one of the public channels or joining an active fleet who runs queues. It's hardly a great stretch of personal ability to simply run a mission with a premade team. I don't care what queue level you're running, "premade team" is easy mode. Having run both, I can safely…
And rather than DROP my weapon, I point my weapon at said bug and communicate exactly how I feel about the bug crawling out of the guys mouth in a clear manner ;) My first reaction to all bugs is pretty much the same... shoot it!!! LOL
Gameplay trumps realism? LOL I'm fine with the short amount of time I'm in sector space simply watching my running lights traverse the darkness. Transwarp drive renders this problem moot. It is quite realistic, which isn't a bad thing... just makes for some awkward moments when you can't really see your ship.
