  • This is very cool! I do have a question though. What does NADORC stand for? Also, there are radio buttons indicating rarity, but I'm not sure which is which. Do they increase in rarity left to right? Thanks
  • You don't talk to Icheb, you talk to Captain Mackenzie Clahoun. He should be listed alphabetically under "Available". Good luck!
  • If they add a tactical console why then would anyone get the Galaxy over the Excelsior or Assault cruiser? Way I see it the Galaxy is not meant to be a ship that does a lot of damage and has offensive skills like the two aforementioned cruisers. I think it's meant to be sort of a healer big old tank that's hard to kill. At…
  • The few changes you mentioned that you're implementing seem good enough to start. Adding in the splash damage is debatable. If we got splash damage from tricos can we expect splash from plasma mines? We already know both HY versions will hit friendly targets as well as the target. I think the changes to dispersal pattern…

  • You don't need tricos to kill borg, and most players learn that well before anything about tricos. Grumbling on the forums is a crutch. You just want the game nerfed to your liking. Today it's tricos, tomorrow it's something else because you got all butthurt because a mine hit too hard. :'( How many other abilities make it…
  • I really don't think they'll be adding a Breen carrier to the game. Aside from the fact the last patch updated the Phased Polaron weapons to be read as "Dominion Polaron Weapons" and that the winter ship was already a Breen ship, I'd say a heavy escort or cruiser is more likely. In a previous Ask Cryptic when asked about…
  • So your problem is that it does a lot of damage. Too much damage! What a novel concept in a game where the only thing anyone seems to build to is... uh.... damage. Seeing the mines is a simple change to your HUD settings. They don't cloak, they don't have mask energy signature, they're just normal mines that take a heck of…
  • It seems like you're complaining that there are too many carriers in game. I'm not sure if that's how you meant it, but that's what it seems like. Way I see it adding carriers to the fed side is a START in terms of balancing the factions in this regard. But even so, just adding more variants and some new ships doesn't make…
  • First of all, 4 of those ships are just duplicates due to retrofitting or fleet versions. Also, counting the Vesta ship three times is extremely generous considering they're all just tweaked versions of the science ship with a gimped hangar bay that fires so slowly it's painful. Finally, this seems like a lot of carriers…
  • Actually people don't play or get better because of helpful or friendly players you have whiners complaining about stuff in game. The Enterprise fires trics for christ's sake. Sounds like you just have a crappy ship that can't take a mine hit, or forgot to hit brace for impact. Even when tractored if you hit evasive you…
  • So it definitely works if you have the appropriate common duty officers. Jeez.
  • I am positive that they are not on assignment, as I just bought them. I will try again with some whites (which I don't have atm, because I contribute them to the fleet).
  • Speaking of which, there are some sick new doffs available.... HoT with you use Aux2SIF, 65% recharge reduction on all batteries, resistance to control on EPtE....
  • Tractor beam repulsors, grav well, tyken's rift, charged particle burst, cannon scatter volley or fire at will would have neutralized all their dps. And would've been sort of funny. Oh! Almost forgot: aceton assimilator. Set it and forget it, watch the mines just disappear lol.
  • I'm not sure what your reasoning behind that is. If you simply look at a mine without DMG versus a mine with DMGx3 you'll see the stats are affected. Also if you look on the exchange that DMGx3 is the most expensive option you can buy when it comes to mines.... so yeah, I'd say there is a difference. And in case you were…
  • I'd say it's more likely that you're just a rubbish player than anything wrong with either of those ships. I fly them both myself, and run both in PvP. You can easily tank 2-3 escorts in PvP with a properly outfitted Galaxy. Maybe fix your build before complaining about the ships. It's unlikely that an extra eng consoles,…
