But will it be compatible with the Constellation Class skin? Inquiring players want to know.

Still seeing the rubber banding. But I did have a day or two where it wasn't flinging me around a map or getting me exploded. Then a winter storm drifted in with sleet and below-freezing conditions. I had stayed off the game for a couple of days between the last "calm period" and now, and I immediately hit ping spikes when…

Still getting horrible rubber banding. ISP is Verizon. But at the moment I believe that the fact its raining (about to be sleet) is contributing to the problem.
-
It doesn't look like an issue with Cryptic's servers. I've run traceroutes to Elder Scrolls Online, Google, two Discord voice servers, Discord itself, and even Bethesda's patch servers. This is what I got back. Multiple hops had ping spikes and fluctuations well above the acceptable ranges (even for a 2.85 Mbps DSL…

It isn't an issue with your connection or anyone else's. There's several threads complaining about rubber banding since the last patch earlier this week. It's a broader internet problem and one that might be outside of Cryptic's control because I've seen it happen a lot in a competing MMO as well.

In your case I'd open the launcher, but not enter your password. Click options and check to make sure that "fast launch" is not enabled.
-
You log-in to the launcher/patcher and click "Options" up in the upper right. Scroll down a little and there will be a checkbox you can tick to swap to the 32bit client. Swapping to 32bit didn't help m with my rubber banding lag issues, but it might help you. Just keep in mind that it might default back to 64bit after you…

I haven't been getting booted off, but I have been seeing rubber banding all day, every day for the past week with very few "normal ping" periods. Makes the game almost unplayable.
-
There are mixed reports of potential causes for it. From Cogent having technical issues to people crowding the network via smartphones to check football stuff. I've been having rubber banding and side effects like bad Discord voice quality for several days now. I have no idea what's going on, but its not a local issue if…
-
I'd like to give it a try, but there are two things preventing me from doing so: the two tactical consoles of the default version and the painfully slow turn rate of 7. If its a BC and has a BC weapon loadout, shouldn't it also come with 3 tac consoles by default and a turn rate of at least 9? Its got to something in…

Been wondering when we'd get a Support Cruiser that's caught up to modern times. Though I am not thrilled with the fact that the Romulan/Reman players don't get a support cruiser of their own. They're stuck flying the version of their allied faction instead, which is why there's disappointment being expressed by myself and…

I saw this too. I took my Jem'hadar (level 65) into Cure Space Advanced and got scaled down to level 45, making the NPCs 15 levels stronger. Then, in a Khitomer Space Advanced, I got scaled down to level 46. In both cases, the pug groups I got assigned to were level 60+ according to their info cards. And yet we got scaled…
-
I thought about it a little bit and I decided to put together a mock-up of how much less intrusive I think the landing page could be. This is a rough mockup, but I think it helps get the point across that smaller can be better. It should also obey the user's UI scaling settings. I also think it could be further tweaked to…
-
I would like to see an opt-out option so I won't be seeing it when I log-in (even once a day). I get most of my news updates through the game's launcher/patcher. You know, that old thing we had to use before STO became available on Steam/Arc. But knowing Cryptic, they're not going to do that because they need a way to…
-
This has affected me as well. I'm going to have to keep an eye on patch notes for the near future. It's annoying that I can't set my camera type to "follow target" without it resetting back to "free camera" after a few minutes.
-
You upgrade it like any other T5 C-store ship; you use an upgrade token. That said, a T6 variant wouldn't be a bad idea in the near future. And as for the comment made by @chitowngrizz420 about its console, the Resonance Cascade Modulator reduces damage to shields by 20% team-wide and completely removes shield bleedthrough…
-
I've compiled a list of observations based around my Tactical captain and their T6 Fleet Defiant in my attempts to replicate my build between Holodeck and Tribble. I did the best I could and these are the results I've noticed more directly. Defense Holodeck: 101 Tribble: 93.5 Note: An 8 point loss. As I haven't actually…
-
Seriously? Can't help us with it? Its their game. This apparently is deeper than the bug they fixed the other day. Here's a video (for any devs watching this) of the problem from another perspective. I discharged my shuttles before recording this. I imagine that if it happens again, I'll just have a crash on that character…
-
I'm not sure if there are reproduction steps. I can only tell you what I've observed about it and what I did to try to get around it. Client version: ST.55.20160110c.25 * The first and most visible symptom is logging in on a character that displays as normal (shows their active ship) and finding out that you have been…
-
I'm seeing this as well. I logged in to do the Omega Particle Daily and noticed that I was stuck in my shuttle. Again. I attempted the workaround, but that only allowed me to move to one of my other ships instead of the one I wanted (a Fleet T6 HEC). I then noticed that one of my Drydock slots is empty. Cryptic's patch…
-
That's going to get on my nerves. All those exchange mails and not being able to purge my inbox of the two dozen plus? Ugh.
-
FAW also drains weapon power like mad unless you compensate for it in some manner. Overload does not. But if you are going to use Overload, you need a DBB with as high a Crit Severity as you can get, which usually means using a [CrtD]x3 Antiproton DBB.

Making Tetryon Turrets is easy. Just craft them at Mk II and throw some cannon upgrade kits at them. Or buy them off the Exchange and then throw the upgrade at them. I have a Fleet Defiant that focuses quite heavily on Tetryon weapons for the purpose of melting through shields like butter. Not that useful in PvP (the proc…
-
You can still use it in the build if you don't mind one of your turrets shooting orange-ish energy bolts. The bonuses for the antichroniton tetryon weapons do include a two-piece bonus that increases the damage of tetryon weapons. Just remember that you can only have the one turret for your ship, the others have to be…
-
It is because these specific tetryon weapons are unique. As part of a set, you can claim them as many times as you want but you can only have one of each equipped at a time. So no having two antichroniton infused tetryon turrets, or three or four. It is that special. And you won't be able to mix the turret with the…

This...does not thrill me. I took a peek at the forums the STO forums are migrating to and most of them aren't even divided into sub-forums for bug reports, gameplay help, and so on. It's just one list of topics that are all over the place (the exception is Swordsman. They have the right idea with that one). 1) Will we…
-
Already reported in this forum yesterday. Even has a desktop screengrab of it (with Trendy's T6 Vet Ship announcement thread in the background).
-
Nothing else? Because I seriously doubt that losing all mods on this weapon is "working as intended". I go from 101 damage to 97 through quality upgrade w/mod-stripping. As I recall, the system isn't supposed to remove mods at all. And this isn't random, every character I use to check its upgrades show the same result.
-
So many entries for the #DeltaRising pack. And only so many packs to give. I have my fingers crossed!
-
Any chance that we can have "accuracy/critH/critD bonuses from equipment" added to the ship's attack tab in the status screen UI? And while we're at it, factor in any overflow? Because these numbers are otherwise invisible to us so we can only guess how much we actually have. ---- And the final line in your post got me…
