  • But its a door prize being given to people who haven't passed through the door, in some cases, for upto 2 years (going on just some of the posts in this thread), while other more loyal attendee's stand there with their numbered tickets in hand and dissapointed looks on their faces. I understand what has happened. What I…
  • What I don't understand is if its totally random who has recieved the promotion, as it seems to be, why not just give it out to everyone? The random allotment doesn't give us as players any indication as to why the players who have recieved the ships were "rewarded" them. There is no indication of incentive. In the words…
  • This seems like an absolutely crazy decision financially. I cannot believe maintaining the sync between the in-game store and its website counterpart was not worth the time. Obviously Cryptic have the numbers, but I would put money on it that they have lost a significant amount of income from people not spending money on…
  • Jesus, the guy has a legit point, one I came to post specifically about for the self-same reason and all you do is badger him about it..? I too came here to look to see if there was anything I might like to purchase from the c-store to get my juices running again about the game and found there was no link to the c-store.…
  • You are mistaken. Read the various articles before jumping on the forums and assuming Cryptic are acting as money grabbing villains. The ships in the pack are mostly lvl 50 Retro-fit versions of the tiered ships you'll be able to access as you level up.
  • People farm Dilithium and put it up for sale on the Dil Exchange for Zen. Players wouldnt be able to buy Dil if we didnt farm it, hence if you do sell Dil for Zen then you effectively ARE working for Cryptic on a very, very low wage.
  • This can occur in any MMO where you're running a fleet/guild/clan. I use to run a PvP guild over in THAT game by Blizzard. After getting home from a days work I'd log-in and find 20-30 people waiting on me to lead PvP teams. Without me on they just wouldn't happen. It basically felt like I was doing Blizzards job for them.…
  • To be honest it was the players who speculated that there would be a full-blown Romulan Faction. The fact of the matter is Cryptic have taken the same path as Blizz did in "that" game with the Pandarian race. Of all the complains about that race being introduced into the game the fact that they were not a "3rd faction" was…
  • The winter Jackets Short (don't know about the others) are non-selectable in the tailor. From previous posts sounds like a general bug rather than the specific costume piece.
  • Also sounds very much like the Ship/Mind Avatars from Iain M. Banks' Culture novels. Which, If you haven't read, you should.
  • The tone of you post, along with other posts you've made, are quite patronizing but I guess you know that. I'm simply playing a game and enjoying it. I feel sorry for you if you feel the need to look down on me for that.
  • Just to clarify, from my point of view I didn't jump through any hoops. I played (and enjoyed playing) the game and earned rewards through not paying for it.
  • He wasn't Defending the lockboxes, he was stating that you can access all in-game resources (bar the Life Time/Vet rewards) just by playing the game. As a silver player there is nothing one has to spend real-life currency on to obtain in the game. I'm a silver player. Played since the beginning of Jan 2013. I have unlocked…
  • Same here. In the middle of an Infected Elite, going great with 8 mins left and we'd started on the final cube...then crud. Rubber-banding all over the place, 250 secs+ of the server not responding until I finally closed the window. Trying to log-in, launcher takes 2-3 mins to boot up now stuck sitting there trying to…
  • Please, please listen to this person. They make absolute sense.
  • I dont mean to nit-pick but one could easily debate that the KDF designs came first, and they based the Fed versions off of Korath/Krenn ones..?
  • Small minded I know, but if I am the last person, at say facility Delta, with 3 repairs to be made and everyone else has headed-off to camp the boss spawn point I normally take my time...wait for a few CD's to finish, tab out and check the interwebz, maybe take a ciggie break. Annoys the campers no end. :D
  • While the current crop of bugs, like the Bridge Officer Station bug can be annoying its only been in existence for 3 days, 2 of those days being a weekend. OP makes it sound like its been in existence since the start of the game. Give STO a break and go outside for a bit. I'm sure it will be fixed next couple of days.
  • Wonder if this is anything to do with the new phone app to check in-game status..?
