Just want to chime in for people who check the last page, don't read my OP, and want to comment. This is not a OMG speculation thread. This is not a "new things scare me thread". This is not a "derp cryptic is a business? that need's to make money herp" thread. I've yet to read any post here that logically justifies…

Regarding comments about coding, it's my understanding that the bulk of coding now is outsourced usually to India or China and not done in house. Something to consider. We can also consider that knowing PWE as a Chinese owned company they probably contract the absolute cheapest coders with the least coding experience.…

You could run single cannons fore and turrets aft and load it with RCS consoles in your Engi slots to get as much of a burst to turn rate as you can. Probably more trouble than it's worth though. I run six beam arrays on my Vo'. I've also run a single torp up front with Torp Spread and go broadside with beams then point…

Actually, it is. Cryptic gave away a bunch of free stuff not too long ago. I got a Free Nebula Retrofit, some free costumes, a FREE Obelisk Carrier, FREE Increased Bank Slots, FREE R&D bank slots, hmmmmm should I keep going or will all you negative Nellies stop spreading so much hate and misinformation? It's really time to…

It's the only challenging and interesting aspect of this game at lvl cap for a semi-skilled to skilled gamer. Fighting a human player is infinitely more interesting than fighting a Tac Borg Cube or any other boss for that matter because the AI is terrible in this game. It gives you a reason to dredge through the mindless…

It's not racist bro. It's a fact. Read a newspaper lately? Chinese industry and business runs with little to no regulation. As long as the bribes are paid. And I'll never feel like *** for speaking the truth. Chinese culture is rife with corruption at every level. My wife's Chinese and she would not take any offense to…

There's a reason why Cryptic is Cryptic and not on the level of Blizzard, ArenaNet, Bioware, Funcom, Turbine etc. Cryptic is Peanuts in the world of MMO development. Even Neverwinter is considered pretty TRIBBLE, just newer TRIBBLE with better graphics. And having a Chinese parent company like PWE is probably as bad as it…

I'm blown away by that Al Rivera comment. That really is the final nail in the coffin for me. I'm done. I don't want T6 ships. Ships are not game content. I'm done with the endless grind. We know as PvP'ers we'd have to run the latest and greatest T6 to be competitive so my brand new Narcine I got and was super excited…
-
It all goes along with the casual free to play mmo theme park they (PWE) aim to make this game. A lot of players here are not MMO peeps but have been drawn here by the IP so that's something to consider. I myself was not a mmo gamer, just a gamer and was drawn to game cause I like Trek. I stuck around because of…

One of the first Geko interviews I listened to several months ago he specifically mentioned how a certain amount of imbalance is needed to keep the game fun. I'm not quoting here but it's his basic sentiment. He went on to say that certain OP aspects of the game are there to make theory crafters and min-maxers feel smart…
-
Actually it does. It will make me that much more effective=OP. Basically will make it too easy, unbalanced IMO. Not fun.
-
Yes the whole drain mechanic is exactly what balanced the massive damage output potential of this ability. And it balanced it logically. A beam overload should drain power. Like someone else mentioned it's an overload What we have as of today's patch is just TRIBBLE. And I fly a vape build on my BoP and can already one…
-
Ya can't wait to get home to do the new supper bosted Beam Overloads. I'm thinking I can one shot the Recluse now, so no worries Devs. Cancel my request, in light of today's patch Nanoprobe Field Gen probably needs a boost! I kid I kid, it's still too OP plznerf.
-
I don't think the main cause is listening to players. I think the main cause is risk aversion. They see what has been profitable in the past, what is profitable now, and try to gauge what will be profitable in the future based on past success. It's that type of business that limits creativity and change. But as has been…

You should bring your Alpha Strikes into the real PvP: Arena.
-
Sure. You get can max dmg from the photon with the voth ordnance 3pc set set including the voth experimental proton weapon, gravimetric photon torp, and voth universal console. A build could look like: Fore: 3 DHCs of your energy type choice CrtDx3, Voth Gravimetric Photon Torp Rear: Voth Experimental Proton wep, 2x…

Any chance of these getting a tweak? Devs?
-
A little over a year. About $800.00 USD Deus Ex Machina, House of Beautiful Orions It doesn't bother me to disclose the above info, but I'm curious, is this thread legit OP? What Devs are you talking to? Don't they know how much people spend through various metrics? If you come back to them and say "PvPers have spent x…

The future is full of exploded Feddie hulls and sad acne faced teens crying in their mountain dew big gulps. As their little scrotums shrink and their balls retreat back into their stomachs they will know their enemy and cower in PvE for all of eternity.

Us old folks remember when the discovery channel and animal planet used to have shows...about animals in the wild. Ah....the good old days. Now it's just planets funniest animals re-runs, animals being silly shot with a wide angle lens, and animals being silly wearing propeller hats shot with a wide angle lens. And…

Hmmm male prostitutes in the allies of Qo'nos. Makes me think of a nice older lady in my fleet that plays the game with eight year old son who has an account. Mom: "Whatever you do son, don't go down those alleys over there". Son "Why mom, what's over there?" Mom "Nothing you need to see and I'm telling you now; you're not…

From what you're saying Nabreeki, sounds like more than anything, cryptic just needs to hire in game GM's that patrol the social zones and make sure players aren't harassing anyone. I thought that was a thing in MMOs? And RP'ing as sexually active Caitians...I guess there's some interesting things going on in game that I…
-
I'd like more asexual friendly zones. Thanks. I'd also like to announce the creation of my new asexual friendly fleet called "Don't Touch Me".
-
Woot! Looking forward to the announcements.
-
Is pay to win worth it in this game? For PvE, no. For PvP yes. Not saying one is better than the other so let's not start that pve vs pvp bs. I am saying though that I can complete all end game content in this game with a free ship or mirror ship and all weak drops for gear. So the new shinies are essentially, pointless. I…
-
It was for the basic ones that come with the ship. The only difference between the basic and elite are more mines and stronger cascade and with the mines doing next to nothing because they're not dropped near targets, I can't imagine there would be a significant dmg increase with the Elites. I don't know enough about the…
-
The parse was for all four frigates. If anyone wants to double check my testing fell free, I'm by no means an expert parser/tester.
-
Well, Frigates should seem tanky compared to their fighter and runabout counterparts. In this game though, I don't see a point to having a "tanky" hangar pet with low DPS. If the Devs intended role for these guys was just good ol' survivability and low damage and they'll confirm that then I'll understand and go get me some…

No it's not true. You still get an assortment of mats from Dilithium mining. I ran the asteroid mining mission several times over the weekend and always got at least one mat sometimes four in different rarities.
