Could we please have access to the anniversary token burner project after the event extension is over, somehow? I did the new episodes on a few alts late in the event and now I've got a bunch of tokens from the bonus rewards hanging around but I can't spend them anywhere! At the time I got them, I didn't expect that 40…
Adding my voice to those crying out in the wilderness, here. XP bonuses, master keys, upgrades, those make sense as once-per-account. But making that the case for boffs and combat pets too? That's disappointing.
And then there are the 400 from the featured episodes that each toon gets, that you can only turn in over 10 days' time as long as you don't do the daily mission from Q for 40 more that day. And the (up to) 600 additional ones that each toon could have by now, if you have been running the daily on alts and saving them up…
Thanks for the thorough answer, ruinthefun. I guess all that remains is for me to beg the devs "please please bring these back at least as a re-engineering result!"
You know what else "isn't really Trek?" Almost all of Star Trek Online. In all of Star Trek shows, how many real wars has the Federation seen? Klingon War in Discovery, arguably a Borg War in TNG/Voyager, and the Dominion War in DS9. Not shown on screen, we have the Romulan War between Enterprise and TOS. That is 4, over…
Adding my report to this thread, I'm having the same issues with my Fed Rom Delta. I noticed a line in the patch notes from today that the issue was supposedly fixed with Jem'Hadar characters, but it has not yet resolved for my Romulan.
I just had this problem today as well. It worked on a different character a month or so ago. You can beam out after you die, once Red Alert falls off, but there is no way to progress the mission past the beam down.
To be a little more constructive than most of the "hate it, don't want" posts on this thread, I just don't see the benefit of running yet another launcher client. The only PWE game other than STO that I've ever played is Torchlight, which isn't even in ARC. Perhaps someday I'll check out Neverwinter, but even there, having…
One request: please keep the current PVP ship system in place and add the small craft on top of it. My fleet has, on several occasions, greatly enjoyed running "swarmer" events, where 5 or 6 shuttles and fighters take on one enemy starship (3 starship kills = win, 15 shuttle kills = win). Having "starship only" and…
Being a heterosexual male, I find that I enjoy watching female characters on screen more than I go for "immersion" by playing a male character. I have a mix of both genders but spend most of my game time "handling" my Orion slave girl.
But I'm not a Captain any more, not really. I have a small fleet of ships at my command, and as an Admiral I can transfer my flag to any one of them at a moment's notice. Many other players have purchased ship slot upgrades and have significantly larger armadas than I. Now it would be nice to be able to assign a Captain to…
Since you don't find the gateway you use in Sphere of Influence until late in the New Romulus reputation, and you can't even access the reputation system until level 50, the mission is in its proper place at the very end of all the current story missions, restricted to level 50. I'd agree with revamping the rewards to fit…
How often do you log on? The only time I've seen settings reset are after a season release, and I don't remember even that happening with Season 8. All these settings are saved separately on each character, so that you can have different settings depending on that character's role, if desired. If you're seeing frequent…
This was said about EC transfers too, back when you had to either go through a trusted friend or make convoluted sales of worthless items to yourself via the exchange. Zen has always been account wide and for all intents and purposes dilithium = zen, so I don't see why a refined dilithium line wouldn't be added to the…
Get excited about Star Citizen and figure out how you're going to mod the game on your personal server to be entirely Star Trek IP. Then you can make the Star Trek Online game you always wanted to play!
It's probably just my lack of skill talking, but I find I almost never use the subsystem targeting abilities on my science ships. I'd like to see those integrated into all normal attacks in some small way, selectable as a constant ability similar to the cruiser auras. The end result would be a small but steady drain on the…
I've never understood why you can't compare apples and oranges. You can look at their vitamin C content, the pH of their juice, ease of peeling, preferences in eating among 4 year olds, etc. etc. This isn't a game about fine tuned strategic ship balance and never has been. Take a look at the (at the time of its release)…
My biggest problem isn't with the visuals. Or some of the creative licenses taken with the physics. My problem is the simple geometry associated with this never-really-explained conflict with the Voth. The Alpha quadrant races have one little gateway into the sphere. The Voth have access to the entirety of the exterior…
A 2 hour walkthrough video for a linear mission with few if any challenges? Sorry, I just don't understand it. Thanks for the effort though, I suppose?
There definitely are other business models out there, but few or none have had the broad financial success of the addiction/grind model worldwide. Many of us have high hopes for Chris Reynolds' (Wing Commander/Privateer/Freelancer/etc.) new project though nothing will completely replace the Star Trek setting in my heart.…
There are a very limited number of lobis available from other sources. Otherwise it's just lockboxes and sometimes zen store duty officer packs. That said, 80 million EC is a lot to gather, but not out of reach for moderately committed free to play captains. Personally, I've been playing sporadically for about 1.5 years…
If you really need GPL, you can buy lolunat favors on the exchange for EC and sell them for 100 GPL each to the Ferengi on Risa. It's irritating in that you can only sell 1 favor at a time, and it doesn't count towards your "win GPL" accolade tally, but it can get you what you need for Special Deal on Entertainment…
In case Branflakes is still reading this mess, I thought I'd weigh in with my 2EC. The most fun part of the Tour for me was seeing how many laps I could manage to get in the hour event. Choosing your ship, gear, and path added some fun and a point to making fast sector ships. Sometimes it would just be a fortuitous way to…
Sounds to me like you need to learn how space weapons work in this game. A mix of Nanite and regular disruptors is flat out superior to all of either type.
