  • Looks like a legit bug to me. I just completed a timed run too, and got no weekend voucher.
  • I've been looking forward to the T6 Defiant release for a long time. I was absolutely certain I would drop the Zen on it, no matter what. I'm sorry to say I'm not so certain anymore. The BOFF layout is nice; I'm digging that. The Torpedo console looks pretty cool. The Defiant model update, and the new Valiant model both…
  • This makes me more and more excited for the future treatment I hope for the Defiant. :D
  • Not gonna be any swifter in their holiday off.
  • Wait. Is it because of a business reason you don't understand, or because they're lazy? Oh, you're just whining? Carry on then.
  • TRIBBLE us? TRIBBLE us!! Sure, let's start there and see if this conversation can come back from the brink of hysteria.
  • Who's "stripping" money from players? Content is free. New ships are the major revenue stream. I'll add my thoughts to the pile of F2P player entitlements: "Players should feel responsibility to contribute financially to the ongoing development and other operations of the games they enjoy playing. Just like shipping…
  • Thanks for the review. Nice to see others are enjoying it as much as I am. :) I've been a cannon guy since the start, but I'm also thinking about exploring a DBB build for this. Using Retrorockets to maintain maximum up-time, losing the cannon's long range damage penalty may finally push me over.
  • I hear what those people are saying, but if Cryptic decide to continue the "Iconic" lineup, I don't do see Nova or Prometheus fitting that category. It should be obvious to any fan that not all canon ships are iconic. That said, T6 Nova and Prometheus: Yes please! But Defiant first. :)
  • We saw the Command Battlecruisers come out shortly before the iconic Galaxy. I expect we'll see the T6 Defiant announcement shortly, now that we have the T6 Piscort packs out.
  • I'm an escort driver all the way, and in my opinion there's just no contest: these zippy badasses are real game changers. The retrorocket reverse maneuver means you can keep your nose pointed at the same shield facing while maintaining Pedal to the Medal all night long. The maneuvers get you into a fight fast, and out…
  • The old way? Like, before STO had a Zen Store? ...

  • I think there are certain design principles that can be generally agreed upon, but I am not debating "looks". Expressions of disappointment or opinion are not arguments. Even explaining why you are disappointment or supporting your opinion is not an argument in a debate. I can join the OP in expressing dislike for Rom…
  • Or he saw it, bought it anyway, and just wants to whine now. Snark aside, I feel lucky that I play Fed. The Fed Piscorts look great, in my opinion, and I'm stoked that the model looks as great as the specs this time around. Rom and KDF on the other hand---not so enthused. Frankly, if I played Rom or KDF, I'd probably care…
  • Star Trek Online is a free-to-play game. Most players earn Cryptic little to no revenue. A few players earn Cryptic tons of revenue. I'm one of those few players who has spent money in the game, and one of the even fewer players who has spent more than $40. I work in the games industry, and I work in free-to-play…
  • Call Quad Cannons "Quad Cannon Emitters" and make it a console that grants an on-use special attack mode for X seconds every Y seconds. Maybe it's not a good idea, but I'd go for it.
  • Trendy confirms Pilot ships in the C-Store 7 May, 2015!
  • I'm with you. I play Fed almost exclusively, and none of the Fed or KDF ships appeal to me aesthetically, so no great desire to acquire. But my big angst right now is the same as yours: Buy Fed pack now, or wait for Defiant. I also share your confidence that the iconic Defiant T6 is coming soon, and I don't really want to…
  • Blame all the takers who don't spend a dime on this game---likely that category also includes you. Pay up or shut up. Everything costs money. New content makes money, fixing bugs doesn't. If people paid for more bug fixes, they'd get fixed.
  • This is a little frustrating, but also exciting. Frustrating: Didn't I just do all these missions on my Delta Recruit? I mean, I'll do it for the rewards, but the fun factor isn't that high right now. Frustrating: Bonus Dili weekend coming up. I was hoping to grind out some serious Dili across multiple toons this weekend,…
  • If you like the game, pay for it. It's not cheap to make MMOs. Too many players want something for nothing. If more players contributed to these games, we'd see more content and fewer bugs. Free loaders should be thanking Whales for paying to keep the lights on and the new content coming.
  • I worked for credit card companies; I know what I'm talking about. Encryption and security are there to protect businesses and the credit card companies. Your consumer information is safe and irrelevant. In order to win a charge contest (as in when you contest an unauthorized charge made to your card), the business owner…
  • Let's keep this simple: your irrational fears are not the fault of Cryptic or PayPal. But at least you feel smarter than the rest of us. Yay!
  • Credit cards are unsafe; unsafe for the vendors. If someone makes an unauthorized transaction on your credit card, you can contest it, and the credit card company will give your money back every time. Even if you're an idiot who gives your credit card number and password away, you will still get your money back. If any…
  • Preach! /char
  • They don't listen? Sounds like you're conflating listening and agreeing. By way of contrasting, I can "listen" to and understand what you write. But I can also disagree with you opinion and decide that another opinion is better than yours. Pretty elementary, right?
  • So Cryptic's working hard to provide as much content as the most ravenous player can consume to make sure that no one's ever bored or thinks there's no reason to log in and play (great retention strategy, btw). However, your self-centured self wants everyone else with more time to play to sit around bored, or worse leave…
  • I'm gonna stick my neck out here and say he's trying to prove either that A) Game makers are evil and don't care about players' wants, Or B) Starfleet primary faction in a Star Trek fantasy game isn't the most obvious choice because SURVEYS. Both dumb points.
  • Ohhh, that's nice. Better than mine. :P
  • If you were "lead dev" for a day, IT would set up your internal accounts, you'd meet the team, read documentation, and maybe start a TODO list. You really don't know how game development works, do you?
