I feel the same way. I was really looking forward to this, since I might be one of the few people who thought Discovery wasn't TRIBBLE, but it has been a complete letdown. - lackluster intro of the new characters, with only 2 new missions, which itself only reward green junk as mission reward, so there is zero replay value…

If you look at organizations like Police Forces (esp. SWAT and Special Forces), Customs, Border and Coast Guards in most countries, they would also qualify as "military" per your definition. Armoured vehicles, tanks, heavy machine guns, military aircraft, armed ships and a strict military-like rank and organizational…

Besides the lack of damage, there is another downside to it: hardpoints. No matter how many turrets you mount, they'll only be using 1-2 different weapon hardpoints, which is a very disappointing sight. So even if you run 8 turrets, you'll only get a single, tiny stream of bolts instead of having the whole ship emitting a…

I created a Bolian freighter captain a long time ago, using the Tuffli freighter. It was on a secondary account so I could invite the characters on my main account (exchange, cheap commodities, trade assignments, additional chance für support-missions etc...) and from level 8 onwards I only ran Doff assignments instead of…

You can always use mission transwarp to get where you want. Start a mission tat starts where you want to go, hit "replay", hit the auto-nav-button and select transwarp for EC, It costs a relatively small amount of EC, but it's easier to come by than dilitium, you get tons of locations you can transwarp to without…

Then you don't know how Cryptic works. Cryptic puts a patch on Test/Beta-Servers with about 100 fresh and new bugs (including a few that keep making returns over and over and over again), most of which are reported by the community. -> Cryptic fixes 2 of them and goes on to move the rest of the 98 bugs onto live realms. ->…

So...having them pack ships that a large amount of the playerbase has been waiting for into the by far worst "lockbox" they have on the store is somehow good for the playerbase? It's more than twice as expensive as opening a lockbox, but without the consolation prizes.
-
If I had to guess, and if the Delta recruitment as well as my own behaviour and that of a lot of my fleet and channel mates are indicators, a lot of those AOY characters are going to be disappearing when the ultimate account unlocks have been reached. Commendation, Reputation, Specialization and Admiralty, which do have…

I have to say that I haven't even noticed that the cooldown went up. Since everything in this game rewards Dilithium nowadays, it's become so easy to get to the 8000 refinement cap that I haven't had to do more than a single turn-in per day for a long time. 2000 turn-in, 2-3000 admiralty + random doff assignments, 3000…

If you go after on-screen "evidence", then BoPs, the Defiant, Jem'Hadar attack ship, runabout and a few others are able to shrink and grow at will. If you look at how their sizes change in relation to other objects and each other throughout the show, it's clearly proven that the Defiant can grow as small as 50m and as long…

Why would they pay someone, who is probably operating in a legal grey area by using the Excelsior name and basic design, to do a job that they already have hired people to do? They'd just need to go to their artists, tell them "whip up a Kelvin-timeline model of the Excelsior" and they'd probably be able to come up with…

Cardassian, IF they're tied to their own faction, even if it's just a minor subfaction like the Romulans. Other than that, I'd rather like them to flesh out existing species. More hairstyles, complexions, face types, basic costume options, tatoos, scars, details, ridges etc... for humans, romulans and klingons.
-
Yes and no. Yes, because endgame content is rather trivial and every patch and expansion tends to make content broader rather than harder. You can access and beat every mission and every queued event just by using items from drops and mission rewards. In addition to that, PvP plays such a low and unimportant role in this…
-
Same here. The design goes even further away from what I consider to be Trek-like and there are just tons of way more beautiful and immersive ships out there for me to even consider flying one of these things that might as well have dropped out of a surrealist painting. Secondly, the layouts, stats and especially the…

which is a very moot point after event ships have been made account-wide unlocks and Kazon/Nihiydron/Malon consolation prize ships are dirt-cheap on the exchange. Afaik that arguement came up around the time we had the original Cardassian lockbox and I can't remember having heard it getting mentioned by Cryptic much after…

"Nimbus III" and "Tyree". Harsh desert planets almost devoid of life.

SPOILERS Technically, it's already true. We have 7 missions: 1 introductory tutorial, 1 starbase tutorial (visit tailor, visit starship vendor etc...) and 5 true episodes, albeit they are very short. Even with looking around, exploring a bit, carefully reading the texts, taking my time and last but not least exploding a…

That arguement was made and made sense in a time when there were only very few non-faction ships. Nowadays, with all those account-wide unlocked event ships, like the Breen, Risian, Ferengi ones or dirt-cheap consolation prize lockbox ships from all those Delta quadrant species, it has become rather moot.

At the current exchange rate it takes about 20 days of grinding to the dilithium cap every day to reach those 500 Zen, while at the same time you won't be able to support your fleet with dilithium, not be able to aquire reputation or fleet gear and won't be able to upgrade gear through the crafting system. For a normal…

They're completely removing short-term goals that way. At least Rep-systems, which probably took some players the same 100 days to complete as well, had certain incentives alongside the way. For crafting, the interesting stuff is at max-level. They might as well remove level 5-15 and condense it into a single, huge level.…

The company supporting Europe (sponsorpay, a German company based in Berlin, rather than peanut labs) seems to have a some questionable history. In the communities of pretty much every game (e.g. need for speed, forge of empires etc...) they have supported, there seem to be the same problems people are having over here.…

Yup, I checked my wallet. The last transaction was on August 7th, when I recieved +42 Zen from sponsorpay, which I transferred to holodeck. Unfortunately nothing happened ever since and this is not the first time something like that has occurred. Currently, it just seems like fraud.
