I'm not going to pay for the same ship, for the 3rd time. No thanks... It took long enough to get my Galaxy to Fleet T6 Level and its still not as a good as some other pay2win ships in this game.
-
Ok, after reading everything here and ignoring the obvious Nova fanboys etc. I have to conclude that I am still correct in this regard. The Intrepid Class is the more powerful ship then the Nova or even the Rhode Island that could not even scratch 2 Negh'var Class battleships that were chasing a shuttlecraft and just…

From your signature, it seems that you are just somebody that loves to argue. I am aware that the Akira was original designed to be a carrier of some sort, with huge shuttlebay that spread the length of the entire saucer. However I believe it still stands that it is a Heavy Cruiser and that's all I am going to add to the…

Do you understand canon? I mean seriously, I don't know why people defend Cryptic on this. While it is true the Akira had a load of Torpedo Launchers in its rollbar, it is STILL a cruiser. You say "I need to understand size doesn't equal ship class", well yes I know this because of the massive size difference between the…
-
I will say that the reason I ask if Cryptic have anything against the Norway, is because there were reasons originally why the Tier V Excelsior was better in game as a ship then the Tier V Galaxy. That was solely down to the designer at the time having personal bias towards the Excelsior (He mentioned it was his favorite…
-
I would like to see this ship as a Light Cruiser personally, I think that Cryptic have already mucked up starship classifications already, with the current designations of ships in the escort catagory and the other ships in the Norway's family. The Akira and Steamrunner were both not Escorts in canon. The Steamrunner has…

I have read everyone's comments and I happen to agree with a fair few people. Star Trek: Online does lack of a lot of consistency. I think the developers have grown into a pattern of releasing bare minimum content and hoping that will do in order to sell ships and other lockbox equipment. To be honest, I think lockboxes…

Absolutely well said and thats what I feel the game has become.

I used to play PvP before all my friends left and I had nobody to play with. Fleet holdings and communities are essentially just another huge grind where you need resources to access time-gated queues. Its not very interactive. I have got all max level on the Admirality System, another queue Facebook game-like grind. I…

Missclick, sorry XD
-
I am going to address each one of your points... 1) No, I do not do seasonal events. World of Warcraft also does seasonal events, I believe pretty much every major MMO does and I do not see how you consider that anything more then "side content". Also there is no reason to do the Summer Event aside from getting the ship…

I very much agree with this comment. I WANT to be engaged with the game, I LOVE Star Trek, have done since I was a boy and I really REALLY want to love this game and invest time in being a constructive community member. However, the game in its present state, feels stale. It feels dated and it feels like its always cash…

However it is part of the nature of Star Trek to explore more controversial topics while cloaking them in analogy. Case and point "The High Ground" - The Next Generation. An episode of a "family" TV show that specifically comments on the actions of the IRA which were very dominant in British society during the 1990's. This…

Thank you Mr TacoFangs for your elegant response. I am honored that you choose to reply. As a long standing player and lifetime subscriber since launch. I have been playing this game on and off for a fairly long time. I have also not logged in several weeks due to having no reason to. I am totally not discrediting you or…
-
No, what I do not like is unimaginative stories and content sacrificed for the sake of making ships and selling them. I completely agree that Cryptic needs to make money. Believe me, I do not personally like the Free To Play model in general but its something I accept as a reality to Star Trek: Online. However... There is…
-
My point is, they do not even try. Most of their development team are dedicated to making ships and lockbox stuff rather then helping to improve the overall game quality. We have also had to put up with bugs in gameplay before because the developers do not check their work before proceeding to dump it on live without due…
-
I want to see the Century Class in the game... This was the Enterprise-F until Cryptic decided to ruin the legacy with the worst designed cruiser in history. I consider the Odyssey, the successor to the Oberth Class instead. Premonition Class (Star Trek: Armada) and just for fun, a tactical version of the Intrepid based on…
-
Something like the Merian Class (Since they already have the Vesta, another Mark Rademaker design in the game) as the T6 Miranda with the original Miranda skin too.
-
I mean that people are always looking for easy ways to break the game, so they don't use things in the correct way. I am pretty sure that Cryptic never really thought Aux2Batt would become like it did. That was the players, manipulating the game for a lazy advantage.
-
What, NO! I have never complained about builds. I just have to ask the question, every few months its the same thing from Cryptic and its starting to get a little tedious. I am GLAD some things finally got nerfed.
-
Thats not what I mean, I mean the general mindset of players, if they arn't doing a 5 minute queue for 1000 marks, they arn't happy and its this culture of laziness that is going to be the death-knell of the game.
-
Can we stop with the Lukari stuff now, they weren't a very interesting race to begin with. I felt this was like most Cryptic made "Featured Missions", all prettiness and filler with new environments but no real improvement to gameplay or choices to the story. I felt I was just riding the plot railroad again.

It certainly works for Nobs who sit at Starbase all day writing forum posts but not most players. Time & money should have went in to improving the previous Skill Tree.

I have not commented on the forums for a good few years because I wanted to see how Star Trek: Online developed as a game. However, it simply hasn't. It has completely wasted its potential because the Devs are content with pushing out the bare minimum of content possible. Take Delta Rising and compare it to Final Fantasy…
