  • 23c Plasma torpedoes can count as different too, they don't get destructible high-yields instead they fire multiples like photons or quantums. As for a proton weapon set, yes please, been hoping for some since the Dyson rep launched.
  • Well as I said I would I tried it again after todays patch, still doesn't work. I'm tired of trying to find work-arounds or just plain hoping that someone else will be kind enough to share one. I'm tired of half-a$$ed, unfinished, abandoned or just flat out ignored content and gameplay. I mean how badly do you have to…
  • Skipped most of the posts but a question for you guys... did any of you notice that the skirts the Duras sisters wore were at least below the knee if not to the ankles / floor? So where are those skirts for female klingons?
  • Also using PlayOn Mac, patched fine, launched the game, got the cr4pdic cryptic screen, get a tiny amount of the grey bar start filling in and then it crashes. Will wait and see if there are any changes with the next patch, if it still doesn't work then I guess STO is dead to me, again. And then I for one will not EVER…
  • You can not EVER find enough money to pay me to even consider using microshite w@nkdows at all. That bullsh1t excuse is the reason they got away with selling pre-beta test build OS's as fully working products and now everyone and their dog does it. After all it took them 5 years and 2 major patches just to get the basic XP…
  • Last time this happened it took them almost 3 weeks to finally post it in english, re: the Lukari meeting with S'trass.
  • didn't vote as there is no option for "not interested in either design". Both look like they had a run in with an industrial press, alpha looks like something the Borg would do and Beta looks to be upside down.
  • Were you not aware that there are currently 2x universal consoles using lt cmdr / cmdr Riker tactics? 1st one is the Antimatter spread from the Exploration cruiser refit, used when they were rescuing Picard from being Borg'd. The 2nd one is the Metreon gas one from the Assault cruiser refit, used in the film Insurrection…
  • Er... when did that get changed then? I was under the impression that the shockwaves were only boosted by energy weapon damage, isn't that why your Boffs tell when it's in the absorption phase? Isn't that why Exotic damage and torpedo builds work so well against it?
  • Chosen for lack of 'fix the broken and bugged stuff' option. Although I personally would like to see them make the Borg STFs back into one mission rather then separate 'why am I here?' confusing messes and just drop them into the Borg storyline so you can do them with either your Boffs or an invite team. Might actually…
  • So that's where the Borgified Tribbles come from, illegal critter experiments. This is a nice idea, just please make a whole new area / planet for it. New Romulus lags far too much to make going there worth it. Also, since this expansion is about time-travel, we could always go back in time to the tribble home-world before…
  • Personally I believe that the only Starfleet ship built to do that would be the Galaxy and it's offspring. For the Romulan's it would have to be a D'D class since it's a nice clean design and doesn't look that threatening, compared to say a Scimitar or a Mogai, unless of course it decloaks when your not expecting it ;) For…
  • Ah, well that is good to know. Kinda funny about the Account bank slots being 'News' though, is that because it got reported and someone doesn't understand the problem I wonder?
  • Yup, after every patch I will log in and it will sit and do nothing for at least an hour before coming up with the login screen. Side note - anyone else noticed that you can't use the account bank when using the freighter you can call in? The character and Fleet banks you can use, but the Account bank will just have a…
  • As long as the hanger bay is not a frigate (which for Feds is only the Callisto) or the Caitian Stalkers then yes, you can use any hanger bay on it. Specifically - Type 8 Shuttles with the Type 10 Shuttles and Elite type 10 Shuttles being the better, rarer versions. Peregrine Fighters, with the Advanced and Elite versions…
  • This could be solved both for the Role-players, Story-writers and those wanting to be immersed into the game by making all the npc crew and security escorts use the same uniform as the captain / bridge officers. Examples = Your captain wears the odyssey uniform, all security escorts and npc crew members wear the odyssey…
  • There was a new bridge and ship interior done for the Scimitar line in a Delta episode, when a thread turned up asking when it was going to be available to players the thread got locked with the 'official Dev response' "being we didn't make it for you guys". Exact same thing happened with the Tholian ship interior. The…
  • We're SUPPOSED to be playing characters in the 25th century, not the 31st, if they want to drop in stuff from the future then they need to either 1) stick to the rules they made and make them gamble box rewards, or 2) do a story mission / episode chain and advance the in-game calendar to the 31st century. Why should KDF…
  • The only forced part of the entire KDF Vs Federation war was the peace, which oddly enough doesn't stop either side from sending Duty Officers off to spy on each others fleet movements, take prisoners, raid armories and ship fitting stations.
  • That is apparently the entire point of the Duty Officer system, especially the diplomatic section, and the Admiralty system given how often 'divert rogue asteroid / comet' turns up.
  • An individual human maybe be smart, clever, interested in bettering themself. Humans as a group display the same mob / herb mentality of sheep or cattle along with similar intelligence, IE - NONE whatsoever. Since the whole point of the Prime Directive is to be broken as often as possible... Since Borg cubes apparently…
  • Except this game is not WORTH spending money on it. Because the quality either stays the same, mediocre, or drops. Blatant bias when it comes to development time and resources being spent, IE: more Fed sh*t all the time. When they do bother doing non-Fed stuff it is either gimped / broken or looks horrible so it won't…
  • We know nothing of the Klingon Empire after the Praxis explosion, the various series will refer to the Khitomer Accords regularly, but there is NOTHING ever mentioned about the evacuation plan mentioned in ST6, nothing mentioning if or how Qo'nos was restored. It's as if the entire Praxis explosion never happened, except…
  • In that case I choose my Nausicaan in his carrier, he goes to one star while his 4x BoP go to the other. Dumb question is dumb no matter how hard you work on dressing it up. Also, in my case the answer would depend on which one of my characters captains is doing the answering, as for me personally, I'll choose the Klingons…
  • Didn't vote as there is no option for "none", also there is no option for "all", just pointing that out for fairness. If you get into a position where you HAVE to sacrifice someone or something to complete your goal, whatever that maybe, then you really scr3wed up somewhere along the line.
  • The Federation is the biggest threat in the galaxy with their insidious policies that assimilate and convert everyone, makes the Borg look inefficient and clumsy. "oh, you don't want into our little exclusive club, sorry to hear that, how about we do some trade deals...." few years later they get completely absorbed into…
  • I know it launched with an exploration system, I leveled my Andorian Engineer to mid forties using it, best fun I've had in-game ever. Sending your minions duty officers off on a mission is NOT what I call doing a diplomatic mission. The only two, or three if you count the Cardassian argument over Bajor, are ones where YOU…
  • As I said before, they wasted so much time and effort doing the 23c ESD map and the sector map when you only get to use it for a handful of missions. Then there is all the manuals, kit modules, ship equipment, ground gear and Bridge officers you cannot get once you leave, plus most of it is bind-on-pick-up to the character…
  • The story is that the Steam starter pack got yanked off the steam store because of some sort of exploit, then a few days later the Tier 1 version of the ship gets gifted to one of the consoles and an 'andorian light escort' goes to the other. So I personally think the exploit story is utter bullsh1t and they yanked it to…
  • If you rate the game based on it's IP then yeah, it's a complete failure. No exploration and I do NOT consider a railroad 'story' about a temporal cold war, which oddly enough is filled with fights, is in no way exploring time, in any sense of the word. The only diplomatic missions are for Federation characters and then…
