Um, no, I'm suggesting this because "doing things with EC (and dil)" is already the way of the game and it will be realistically costly to change to another ship in mid-nowhere. Same as with the transwarp to mission costs. It's already there. This IS rational. And fair. Logistics cost. I'm in no way against it. I need to…
Call me old fashioned but I don't have anything on Steam and it pretty much looks to me just as useless to have as Arc. Can you just use it to install then never run it again?
Indeed, not much incentive to go on and do any kind of exploring. And the reason is simple, theres not enough variety and the rewards for it simply suck balls. Beyond a few particles and junk cheap equipment, spending time doing any exploration is a complete waste. There was that B'Tran exploring for 1440 dil but it got…
Of course, my idea is strictly related to that ability and only one aspect about how it should be implemented. I'm just as unhappy about some of these issues as well, but I also realize that some players might find it appealing and/or convenient. As for me, it will definitely kill some of the immersion. Let's take the…
I have access to (nearly) everything in my fleet but I don't use fleet gear at all. I don't PvP or minmax and even for elite STF's normal in-game items available to everyone will do the job perfectly. I honestly don't see where the OP got his idea that someone is pressing down his neck, the poor little guy, cuz really…
I'd say the answer to this is pretty simple. Allow people to quick change ships anywhere they like... for a ec fee.... like when they're using transwarp to mission. You wanna be lazy/quick? Pay anywhere from 10.000 to 100.000 ec depending on how far you are from a space dock. Thus, such a solution will be an added…
You already don't have to. Console on bridge/ready room solves 99% of your ship interior needs. So whats the harm in adding more interiors, especially since many are limited to a single small map (all lockbox/lobi ship interiors)? I got the DS9 bundle for the Belfast specifically, I wasnt interested in any other stuff that…
I gotta ask the same question. Who or what in the hell would make you guys want to do that? If anything... the calendar should be enriched with a few more events. Add all the other fm stuff. You can waste half a day waiting in ques. Weekends are a little better, but if they arbitrarily decide some other stuff needs bonus…
Like already mentioned, Epohh taggin is the way to go. Else, there's Mine Trap, but might need a little luck to get a good set of players that know what they're doing in there.
I happen to like grinding. I have the patience, not so much the time, but... the game ain't goin away any time soon, so... take it easy, one thing at a time. You can definitely enjoy doing it, but doing it like you're on a damn schedule on a million toons will surely make you sick of it.
This obviously states the guy is a damn imbecile. At this point I would have ignored him straight away. Also, the second I would have noticed anyone is leechin... POOF... I'm gone... no one's gettin free rides on my back. Not even partial free rides. End of story. Theres plenty of afkr's out there and one of the reasons…
Or Cryptic should implement a system of afk reports and if a "offender" gets a certain amount of reports... he can be "investigated" and banned (temporarily or permanently) if found guilty. Any automated form of discovering them can probably be abused so I wouldn't vote for anything of that manner. Merely having a good…
Well, there are some... rare indeed... but there are... total jerks. Last time I met one he started yelling in team chat exactly 1 sec after the pug started : "YOU BETTER NOT NOOB THIS OR I WILL [insert favourite insult]". And being a pug... of course they did, not long after. You can imagine what followed. Now, if a long…
You're right. This is futile and I give up. If I was a decision factor working for them.... after reading all the arguments in this thread, some of which are devastatingly correct, I would have at least said something, out of shame if not to actually explain/excuse "why" we did what we did. Perhaps this was an order from…
And how many times do we have to go through this? There is no "exploit". There is no "legitimate" vs. "illegitimate". Read the mission text before you pick it up again. It DOES NOT SAY how many, in what order, or which sectors you should be doing. You do what u can, within 1 hour. THATS IT. And no more "KDF is poor" in…
You could also say that about the dil mining, and pretty much everything you can do in this game. Do the same thing repetitively for a long time... and it becomes more like a job than a game. The important thing is that "we did something", and we were rewarded for it. We weren't taking advantage of another mans work like…
Yes, more motivated to afk the stfs and farm the foundry on a gazzillion toons. Cause these are apparently, morally fine and not at all dronish in any way. On a different note you are right about the economy.
Do something boring long enough, guess what it becomes? Yes, hard. I never ever ever ever heard anyone that was doing it say.... Hey, I LIKE THIS! Everyone actively disliked it. Hell there are a lot that never got past doing it more than once. Calling it an easy exploit - it sounds insulting.
Sure there is.. plenty of us. It was loooong repetitive boring and hard work requiring lots of attention to detail. An exploit makes things easy and fast... quite the opposite of what the tour was.
