The Galaxy Class was reimagined for Tier 6. That, and it seems like the story is more interested in Voyager at this point than the Enterprise. Perhaps we'll come back to it after we resume focus in the Alpha Quadrant.
-
Just going to note for reference that the map incorrectly spells the Agrama Sector as "ARGAMA SECTOR".
-
I've been bothered by this for a long time. Sector Space direly needed more illumination so that the players can see their own ships! I've also noticed the change to the bloom effect, including the slider in the options menu that now caps at 100%, rather than 500%.

Sol is described as straddling the Alpha and Beta Quadrants at the heart of the Federation. I actually prefer the system to be recorded as being in the Beta Quadrant, for a number of reasons. 1. Primary belligerents in the Federation's history have most often originated in the Beta Quadrant (the Romulans, the Klingons, and…

Successful games add content regularly. World of W*rCraft doesn't even add content as often as Star Trek Online gets, and it's crazy popular. Despite the flaws... bugs, lag, inefficient game mechanics, and some reward imbalances, the game is actually fun to play. That will be enough to keep the Star Trek fans playing,…

It might be nice to use the options menu to be able to disable the stellar streaks while at warp. First of all, they are intended to be stars stretching past, but you can see them flying by in between the ship and the camera (which throws everything out of perspective, visually). Second of all, the new space revamp has…

It is the late Christopher Reeve. It's my passive aggressive protest against the childish vitriol of the forums' most prolific users. But that's another story altogether. I am curious to know if the system is named Agrama or Argama. The Sector Map calls the sector itself Argama (with an RG), as does the Galaxy Map. The…

"Nnhh...RRRGH... GO FORWARD. WALK FORWARD. WALK. NO. THAT'S BACKWARD. FORW-NO. FOOOOOORWARD." This is what my neighbours are hearing.
-
You know a game is in trouble when WALKING FORWARD doesn't work properly.
-
I wouldn't hate this mission if it weren't for the fact that some of it is timing-based "do or die" navigation that is incompatible with the server presently being a laggy pile of donkeysh*t.
-
I am annoyed that I have to bail on this mission and won't get the reward. Then again, the reward is underwhelming at best. Unappealing visually, and with Bridge Officer seating arrangement reminiscent of the Galaxy Dreadnaught. Like... a Kobali ship? That species that we saw once on Voyager, being used to commemorate this…

How the hell does that minigame even work? I have tried twenty times on K7 to collect particles and I just don't get any points, and I don't know what constitutes succeeding in the minigame and what the fail conditions are. That, and my ships are resetting their trays and unequipping officers by themselves. AGAIN. And the…
-
I don't even know if the particle scanning minigame is broken because THERE ARE NO WRITTEN RULES ON HOW TO SUCCEED. I haven't the tiniest fog of a hint as to whether all those vague blobs I'm pointing an arrow at are supposed to contribute to my score or just disappear. It seems to do it at random and I don't know at all…

I haven't seen anything in zone chat since the new ESD was put in.
-
I don't take pleasure in mockery, so that makes me sheltered. Okay. I don't even know where to start with that. Though I do think it's adorable that the community-at-large feels it's fair to trash the devs but don't feel that they themselves deserve criticism for their behaviour. If you want to consider my responses to be…
-
You think acting like a decent human being is an unreasonable standard of conduct? You guys say things on this forum that you'd NEVER say to someone in person because you know it would get you more trouble than your satisfaction would be worth... but you believe your standard of conduct when sheltered comfortably behind a…
-
Okay, that did make me laugh. I didn't think it would happen by reading this thread. You're very right that a notable set of changes did come from the protest of the players, but I still firmly believe that the less insulting approaches made regarding those issues were key to those changes, and not stuff like this thread.…
-
If you think critical feedback and satire go well together, then you are deeply flawed in your perception of feedback. Criticizing and insulting are two different things and the lines between the two have become so badly blurred here that many don't realize that they're not even offering decent feedback any more. They're…
-
First of all, "healthy and constructive"? How do you rationalize the way forum posters refer to and talk to the developers and moderators? I've seen some intensely unnecessary remarks and language used, both in this thread and others. There are literally too many examples to bother quoting. You don't have to look hard. You…
-
Oh sh*t, dude is that real? You can talk to your ship's computer and it will actually do what you tell it to do? Okay, I need a new computer.
-
Saying I'm projecting does not mean I am. Saying I'm bitter doesn't mean I am. I'm not sure if you're deliberately trying to make me angry, but if you are, I'm afraid you haven't succeeded. I made a lone commentary that compared someone's job to someone else's. And seeing as I have only my own experience to draw upon to…
-
Because it's mine to waste.
-
Your reaction suggests you don't believe it's possible for someone to read or view something they don't like. I think it would be impolite not to read the responses from others to my comments and respond if warranted. But maybe I'm the weird one. That's definitely not impossible. Now *this* is an angry person. Here's a…

Elite: Dangerous. Didn't know it existed until this thread told me. While the idea of a life-sized galaxy is appealing, the design of the ships in the trailer on their website didn't blow me away. It's hard to design a good looking spaceship for science fiction. And in a space combat game, you GOTTA like the look of what…
-
That is blatantly insulting and your remarks are not welcome. If you have a suggestion of your own, please feel free. But keep your insults to yourself.
-
You talk of me being "the minority", which is ironic, considering the bulk of negativity on these forums represents a minority of the game's general opinion. Probably because the average player avoids these forums like the plague. I don't know for certain if my own opinion about the state of the game is popular. And again,…
-
And if I break a rule (for example, by trolling), I would expect to see one. Until that happens, I have every right to post. I was using the image of my horrible job as a visual aid. But apparently siding against the tide of trolly nonsense means I must be subjected to intentional misinterpretation. You're welcome to…
-
Canada decirculated the penny, so you may keep them. As for "random" venting, I find myself unable to do much of anything at random. Perhaps a failing. And as for the "venting" part, I believe you are mistaking it for "judging". I'm judging you. And my criticism is honest, forward, and not shrouded in juvenile trolling…

I work at a customer service call centre. My job is to answer telephone calls from people who only call us when something has gone horribly wrong. Regardless of whose fault the problem is, it's my fault (even when the customer says "I know it's not your fault, but..." as if that's supposed to justify the horrible things…
-
I hope the devs have a sense of humour, because this thread is full of sh*t. Juvenile, uncreative, directionless sh*t. None of the "Delta Rising" insult signatures have even illicited a chuckle. Boring obvious dumb jokes about a dubiously effective expansion. Doesn't anyone remember when effort was put into being funny…
