Proposition: T5 = Existing Lv40+ Starships, including the Level 50 ZStore ships T5F = Existing Fleet variants T6 = As Posted in "Tier 5 Starships Upgrade" Blog T5U = As Posted in "Tier 5 Starships Upgrade" Blog Part 1: Hull Pacing Equality - All ships T5 and up receive level scaled hull bonuses, akin to the T5U and T6…
To be clear, it's not a Boff. It's an ability slot. And an undetermined rank one at that. it could be simply an upgrade from en to lt. Not game breaking, since the pool of abilities is not expanding. But it is still an upgrade, I agree. However, going from T4 to T5 you gained an ability slot, yes? It came at a cost, since…
As stated in the blog, you in fact DO receive the traits for the first four levels. While you are in your T5U, you recieve the bonuses unlocked in that ship. So four passives, just like the T6. The difference is the T6 has one more level to unlock. Once that is completed, you now have a slotable (only four slots to fill)…
They're not making you do it. It's optional, as the store has always been, as the fleet ships have always been. As was pointed out, the mirror ships (lv 40) are still viable in STFs and PvE everywhere. I agree with bug fixing. I hate bugs. Propose a solution that benefits everyone. I challenge everyone with a complaint to…
Exactly. Why don't we start complaining that there's whole builds dedicated to completing No Win Scenario? Again, exactly. It is not necessary to purchase anything. But it's there if you really want it. Also, who's to say that the HYBoffs don't do ground? All the hype is on space, but that doesn't mean they're unusable if…
Currently, we miss out (by using a T5-U) on 1x Bridge officer Ability slot (not seat, just one ability), at an unspecified rank. It could be an incredible Commander ability slot, or simply a Lt slot. Potentially a big difference. Also possibly not. Consider upgrading the Vesta's Lt.Comm Universal seat to a Comm Universal.…
Ok, at least you're trying to come up with a solution, which appears to happen very rarely. I see only a couple problems. First, the numbers are FAR too low. Consider the sale price in credits for a warp core at a vendor for instance. And the exp, if there's an abundance, you're not really working for it are you? Second,…
That's the same as grinding for dilithium -> zen conversion. Except someone else bought the zen to pay for your upgrade. And apparently, nobody likes grinding :P People are already complaining, and you think it's a good idea to add a reputation style grind just to unlock the ship grinding? :D Just saying.
Hahahahaha! Perfect. And I'll say again, the servers don't pay for themselves. Someone has to spend money for cryptic to pay for it's staff, servers, buildings, power bill (programmers like AC), etc. Where's the money come from? It comes from the players. I'm sorry for annoying people. But maybe consider that the amount of…
At the VERY LEAST allow FULL T-6 for the Fleet Ships and Veteran Ships, especially for the lifetime subscribers. ^This. This would solve the problem. Although, I think the KDF players might disagree, I think this would be the best solution. Z-Store ship -> fleet upgrade (500z) -> T6 upgrade (500z)
I agree with the dismissal problem. But it's much the same as dismissing a fleet ship, if you ground for the module. Also, I may be misunderstanding, but the hull value increases based on captain level, does it not? It's simply the passive abilities that are gained at the first four ship levels (akin to reputation system),…
That's cute. I forgot that they only have one game... wait... Also, you're complaining about spending money, and citing a stock report. How would their value go up, if nobody is willing to invest?
Actually, I have a job. What's a fleet module going for on the exchange? Grind EC. It's free. Or, grind Dilithium, it's also free. Buy yourself some fleet modules. Buy the fleet variant. You haven't paid a dime, just time. What did cryptic get? A bill for their server. That you played on. So you have to pay five bucks to…
Aren't these the same complaints people had when 5 tac console ships started appearing? How about the fleet versions of some ships having more console slots? DID THE GAME BREAK?:eek:
Actually, one thing I wonder is if the bundles will have a bundle upgrade, you know, a two for three thing. Edit: Did anyone else read the part where you don't NEED to upgrade? Second, all existing content, all new story content, patrols and most queues will not require a Tier 6 or Upgraded Tier 5 starship. Only the most…
I'm okay with it. I'm not a lifer, but I'm glad that they get their destroyers upgraded for free. What I don't really understand is the need for the existing Fleet variants after this system. With the hull points increase between level 50 to 60 (according to the blog on T6 ships) being minimal, the extra 10% wouldn't look…
