We haven't had a sailing yacht yet..... Risian Regatta anybody?
-
Why, those dastardly, cash grabbing fiends! They would have gotten away with it too, if it hadn't been for those pesky kids... :D
-
Hmmm, but then the developers wouldn't have any responsibility towards them now would they? That's unethical on the part of the prison, rather than the game developers or publishers. ;)
-
The ethics of gaming simplified: Nobody makes you play. ;)

I can think of a few BIG reasons this would be a bad idea:- 1) The forum is a very small minority of the total STO playerbase. Having an even smaller chunk of this already small minority been selected as effectively a focus group? You wont even come close on getting a picture of what the majority want, just a vocal…

To answer your actual question, I always slot a higher attack pattern beta as a priority over FAW, with torp spread lowest priority of the 3 as end of the day if you are running a beams build (which you will be on the guardian) on a slow turning ship, most of your damage is coming from FAW and not torps.

Because they're not the same thing perhaps? Steam been a game delivery system owned by Valve, you still have to have a PWE (ARC) login though to play PWE games. ARC is both PWE's game delivery system AND it's user account and community system. You don't even want to imagine the nightmare it would probably be to have…

It just uses a detection script to identify that you're using a mobile device, and switches the forum over to a mobile friendly (ie. simplified) layout, complete with good old hamburger menu. ;) I use a similar system on my own websites, as the number of people accessing sites from mobile devices is a HUGE audience that…

Log in on the normal Arc site (top right), et voila, you're logged in. It's pulling user data from the Arc site too, so if you set your avatar in your Arc profile, et voila it's there on Vanilla too. If you stop thinking of it as a stand alone forum (it seems to be bridged with ARC) you'll find the migration a lot easier…

A sci leaning Rissian carrier, with an unlock for corvette hanger pets for those who have one, would be nice. I dread to think what it would look like though, a hotel maybe? :eek:
-
You've confused me with somebody who WANTS easier content, rather than somebody who's just sick of all the epeen elitism on here... Normal is way way way too easy, it's for those just learning to play. Advanced was SUPPOSED to be the old elite, but instead of been set at a level between normal and elite, ended up more of a…
-
I am going to keep my reply here short and to the point. Elitism belongs in the elite STFs, and has no place or claim on advanced. If you want "challenging" content without "too many noobs who haven't a clue what they are doing" then 1. don't PUG and 2. go run Elites. Elites were created in response to all the elitist…
-
Not a fan either, thank goodness that you DON'T have to use the costume option to use a set though eh? ;) I will say something here though, and point out that "club" fashions (ie. Daft Punk look) are actually inspired by what folks though of as futuristic/sci fi looking, rather than the other way around... Go watch some…
-
I did it on a tac, in a Samsar, with just 6 points in Gravitons.... lol
-
If you don't want Argonite Gas in the rewards, or don't want something a tiny bit harder, then by all means don't bother queueing for advanced as it's clearly not for you anyway. That's nothing to do with the mission, and everything to do with your personal choice. As it stands, this mission is about spot on for an…
-
Killing Tholians become a whole lot easier if you equip a stack of weapon batteries. Weapons get taken offline, pop a battery and they're back on again. The only "difficult" part with advanced now is getting a team that knows how to do the optionals. The only fail criteria now is that you have to rescue a single ship…
-
Very rare R&D mats. The fun of doing something that isn't a face roll. Both of the above. ;) As to damaging the Tholians, it's pretty easy? Not sure what it takes to not scratch them... :eek:

When I found out about the nerf to mark hand in dilithium bonus, I shrugged and went and mined nearly double the amount that I can refine in a day. Then I found out that they had extended the dilithium even to a full week, and was very very pleased. An entire week of earning bonus dilithium for mining and just playing the…
-
Complete agreement (and yes, I'm registered as an organ donor). It'll actually be very interesting to see if Cryptic develop this story first, as if the Kobali are, as they seem to be, a species who do "care" then as they learn more about the species they use as raw materials for their rebirth process, they should in…
-
Please tell me that that's a joke right? It really couldn't be much easier if it tried. Shoot thing on wall, walk onto safe part of platform, shoot next thing on wall, repeat.
-
I believe that you misunderstood this somewhat. All this means is that you wont get a free, probably white and Mk X, secondary deflector on a ship you already have. You will however have the secondary deflector slot to put one in. So your title is wrong, all science ships that have both subsystem targeting and sensor…

To put a different slant on things. Big "name" MMOs are flawed from the off, they are flawed in that the name they carry will always be an achilles heel. Players will flock to it because of the name, rather than the game itself. It's a 2 edged sword as it means that not only do you get players who would enjoy the MMO in…
-
I say stop trying to tell other people what to do with their money. It's their choice, and shocker, they might actually like STO even... In exchange, we won't demand that you immediately start spending lots of your money on STO. Deal? Regards
-
EVE, with in cockpit control is my impression, which is actually pretty darn cool. Not nocking ED here at all. Just pointing out that it has naff all to do with Star Trek or STO, and that stating that it's the game that STO should have been is like saying that apples should have been bananas.
-
THIS is the game that STO should have been! No grind, easy to advance..... Just saying.
-
Thank you for that, you really did make me chuckle there. Not least your assumption that I've never watched Star Trek, and am not a Star Trek fan. :D Odds are I've watched more Trek than you've had hot dinners fella, been nearly 40 years old and growing up with TOS on BBC2, then Next gen etc etc. Do keep telling yourself…
-
Failed logic there. If STO was Elite Dangerous, it would still be Elite Dangerous, and not STO. Making it a game that isn't actually out yet, and costs £35 to buy and has nothing at all to do with Star Trek beyond space ships.... It's like posting that Neverwinter is the game that Guild Wars 2 should have been, because of…
-
They don't even have to signal at the same time, it gives a second or two. Had one the other day, nobody stood there, I signaled, chap ran up (must have seen me signal) and decided to do it anyway. Put him on the course and failed me. End of the day though, what the server sees isn't always the same as what we see. Want to…
-
What gives is that you haven't run the Tide Of Ice event enough times to unlock them. 5 times for snow weaposn and fashion, 10 times for the warp and singularity core. Oh, and this is about the 5th thread on the topic.

Carefully, whilst well armed and wearing an environment suit? :confused: ;)
