The list shows last year's emotes but it is full of new ones.
-
Exactly why I came to the forums this morning. Thought I broke it, somehow.
-
Client is patching and I noticed the light go green 45 minutes early. Way to go guys!

For non-elite solo/team play, is hitting 130+ Aux after firing off OSS sufficient to be considered a strong (strong enough?) sci boat or am I trying to cover too many bases to be useful? This is keeping weapons at 125 to keep my beams weapons hot with the other levels riding at 77-80 before buffs. When tweaking traits I…

Researched way to long before realizing why my Tac or Eng captains would never be able to train a Sci BOFF to use Subnucleonic Beam.

I have only 1 klingon and had previously claimed the Kar'Fi with my lvl 62 freebie. If you're in this boat then you'll need to discharge the freebie to claim the account unlocked version offered this weekend. :wink: Thank you for the free stuff! Happy Anniversary!

If you're set to target what attacks you first and to allow off-screen targeting it can make it seem like line-of-sight targeting is broken, sometimes. Low-key attacks can change your focused target or even cause the HUD to seem to refuse to target what's directly in front of you with tab-targeting. (It's just cycling to…
-
That makes perfect sense. I didn't know you could reverse TBR with DOFFs 'til recently and have both on my Rom Sci. Firing both together in a group of enemies (solo run, no worries about someone else's targeting) causes this amazing bouncing, shredding visual effect. I'm not suggesting this as a tactic, mind you. It just…

Banned because THE CAKE IS A LIE! Banned again for causing me to dig that one out of the meme's graveyard.

My familiarity with Sci ships has improved dramatically since I originally bought this. (we were still leveling up with the little pips) I think it's a better understanding of Aux, though, that's making the big difference. At the time I didn't pay attention to aux levels at all. When coldnapalm and seriousdave mentioned…
-
To be honest this ship has sat unused for so long that I can't promise I had a firm grasp of science abilities in general when I benched it. Aux level and its importance, in particular, were a mystery for sure. Thank you for answering, both of you. The suggestions made only require minor fiddling and have me thinking past…

The OP did not rant. His language was not demanding. There was, in fact, a reasonable answer to his question. My compliment to Where2r1 was genuine and I stand by it.
-
Well said. I really appreciate how you answer questions without insulting the OP :smile:
-
Banned because ... Because, um ...
-
The fact that a bug related to goatees is hitting right before a chapter about the mirror universe is tickling my meta-funny bone.

Banned by manhole cover throws

Have spent last 10 days or so mastering this ship (and it's KDF/RR sisters) over and over. It is a beast with DHC/Turrets. (The turn rate is about my minimum to use DHC enjoyably.) Despite this, I've ended up with beam setups on the toons who will fly these full time, though not exactly the setups polled here. Number…
-
Because he cheats and holds you at the start :smile: But seriously, on the Hold issue, I noticed it more with a Female Ferasan (It was always the Big Breen, too.) It was noticeable enough that I went over equipment to see if she was missing something the male toons weren't or they had something passively reducing hold…

Last night I logged in to race during a snowball fight. Tried to find a 'finished' low population map but no one was fighting so decided to go ahead and run it. I was one of 3 people on the map. The snowball fight was at 3% but someone had just cleared that line between the gazebo and the race start. Started the race and…

UK based productions run into the same, in reverse. Seems like they only do 3 accents no matter where the always-loud American is supposed to be from. It all goes back to what's been stated: local productions are subject to local rule and talent pools. At least at the levels being discussed here. Sci-fi fans have…
-
Apologies if this was implied, but I'd like to add: you don't have to repeat the mission to equip BOFFs. Just drag to each BOFF first, wait, then claim the suit again. Equip yours last.
-
Arrow or ASDW for movement/braking. Spacebar (jump) for up. Mouse driving can be problematic on these maps. Small bursts won't cause as much inertial drifting but aren't practical the whole run.
-
The snark was a little gratuitous. I assumed his launcher was stuck on patching or he was using ARC or didn't know today was maintenance, etc.

Banned for dachs-ing!
-
Banned because I knew I had seen that somewhere!
-
Banned for recursive banning, creating a banning causality paradox which ... Cr*p! I have a headache, now.

If Alfonso R successfully sues, then I think Eddie Murphy (and any 80s era teenage girl) might also have a claim. Also, Belinda Carlisle from her Go-Gos days.
-
Thanks for mentioning the exchange availability. Normally I would have sat on these c-store coins or unlocked something a little more utility but I got them from Gift Cards and the gift giver (who doesn't play) looked crestfallen when I got excited about something that wasn't a new ship. --Sometimes you've got to just put…
-
Thanks! I ended up getting the Battle Cruiser Bundle. Very satisfied. Thanks to everyone who took time to help!
-
Popped back in to ask a question regarding bundles - your advice is timely. I will probably be buying a bundle after looking again. I agree with your assessment of the Intel Assault and you've backed up my instincts on the Command Cruisers. Was coming back to ask whether the Kurak and Morrigu brought the same strengths. My…
