I think the above suggestion might be overkill. I would suggest to you to first copy the X:\Users\Public\Games\Cryptic Studios folder to your new machine. Next, run Star Trek Online.exe from that folder and see if that works. The Star Trek Online.exe file really is something special because if you just have that, or an old…

Those accolades have been buggy since the item upgrade system came in. If you simply slot a Mk XII piece of equipment that previously filled the accolade for upgrade (and don't apply any upgrades), that piece of equipment will un-tick itself in the accolade progress. I think this has something to do with the item becoming…

My thoughts exactly! The first time I played this episode series and got to "Everything Old Is New", I felt like I had stepped right into a TOS set and the contrast, lighting, colours, etc felt perfect for the episode theme. I'm very happy with most of the lighting improvements that we've been shown, but this one is…

Before the game became Free-To-Play, there was no "Dilithium" currency. Instead, we had many different kinds of marks and badges. The developers decided that there were too many currencies, so they were all converted to Dilithium in an attempt to reduce the number of currencies. This was also when it became possible to…

I've noticed that there are a few things that cause this:* Aux system offline - this can be caused by debuffs, Override Subsystem Safeties, etc, or if you have your aux power too low and use like the aux cannons or something else that drains aux power (Auxiliary to Battery?) because it will become disabled if the power…

You can always copy a toon (or toons) to Tribble, go to the console on Drozana, buy like 30-50 respec tokens, and play around with different specs. Other than that, here are my thoughts on this: There are a few skills that are really important regardless of Captain career:* Energy/Kinetic weapon training is very important…

I realize this is the wrong thread to have this debate, but it is very important, especially if those in decision-making positions (game developers) are reading this. High DPS/high speed runs require a very high level of team work and timing. You have to hit your Team-affecting buffs at the right times to not waste them;…

For the Leech (with current Tribble numbers that may not hold, although they were recently updated): * If you have less than 200 Flow Capacitors (Drain Expertise), you will see an increase in the drain/power return, with those at the lowest end receiving the greatest boost when compared with current Holodeck numbers. * If…

1.) Yes, of course it matters. The console descriptions say "Any Krenim, Zahl, or Nihydron Starship". 2.) Yes, the Year of Hell stats page, with the stats for the ships that came from the lockbox, says A Krenim Science Vessel is definitely a "coalition starship" because it is Krenim, which is part of the stated coalition!…

Same issue with the console from the Krenim Imperium Warship. Description says any Krenim ship, but it will not work on the Krenim Science Vessel.

I decided to attempt to provide some data for Plasmonic Leech and how base values would affect that, and here is the graph of my results. The current Holodeck values are the thick yellow line. It seems that no matter what you do here, there will be some degree of overperforming or underperforming vs Holodeck depending on…

I would be very cautious about spending significant resources right now. The skill revamp that's coming is introducing some major changes that could bring some significant shifts in the "best" setups. It's hard to fully test it on Tribble right now because we currently can't bring over top-end builds, and trying to build…

Maybe they could go to nearby IT Colleges and Universities and recruit a bunch of unpaid interns or low pay co-op students to fix bugs? Not saying I agree with this, but other companies do.

Just want to say that this has been my exact experience as well, when the loading gets to 96-97%. There are additional black screen/hanging annoyances that creep up when alt-tabbing in and out of the game after changing between windowed and fullscreen mode as well, but that is another issue, and possibly beyond the scope…
-
Yes! This is a terrific idea! Put it on the inactive "Fleet Actions" like Breaking The Planet, The Big Dig, etc too. Even if they put like a 2 hour cooldown on getting fleet dilithium from the same queue, I'm sure this would significantly increase the number of people playing these. They could also change the dailies…

From the official blog: http://www.arcgames.com/en/games/star-trek-online/news/detail/9680933 You need one of the Breen ships with hangars AND the Plesh Brek Raider to get the pets. You also need to have the raider as an active ship before the pets show up in the stores.

I've discovered a workaround that someone posted in another thread, and it seems to work for me: If you see the progress counter get to 96-97% and stall, click the Maximize button in the top right corner (I run in the Windowed Maximized mode usually). I have noticed that this always clears the stalled loading immediately,…
-
Not quite.. While the point you make is true for non-tanking builds, I have come across quite a few dedicated tanking builds that can tank 70+% of the attacks even if they are with people who have 2-3x their DPS. For these people, FaW is a huge part of their ability to tank effectively. See the image for an example log of…

I wondered why last year the game kept kicking me out of Winter Wonderland every time I'd log off. I found it really annoying then. But now, thanks to this thread, I know why they did that, and I hope they re-implement that feature ASAP or find some other way to prevent this exploit.

I seem to remember that several years ago (2011-2012?) there used to be a "Message of The Day" pop-up box that would appear when you would log in to a character, and this would have important announcements, patch notes, etc. This would have been especially helpful for dealing with situations like when the ability to delete…

I would strongly consider replacing those Tactical Phaser Relay consoles with Vulnerability Locator consoles with the Phaser mod from a Fleet Spire. I noticed that on your first picture your critical chance is 2.5%, which seems very low. If you get 3 Locator consoles, this will add ~5.4-5.7 to your critical chance…

Seems to work fine for me: Equip engine, go to Full Impulse, those 3 stats (flow caps, part gens, electro-plasma system) increase, and the increase remains for 15 seconds after coming out of Full Impulse... Not sure what the bug you're seeing is? EDIT: Unless you were thinking it activates on simply reaching Full Throttle,…

Hmm, I've never joined queues by double-clicking on their name. I usually select the queue that I want, make sure it's highlighted, and then click the Join button on the right-hand side of the screen. I have noticed on occasion that the list can "jump" when you click on the name of a queue, so I can understand the problem…

Did you try going into the options in the launcher/updater and asking it to Force Verify all files?
-
This thread started with a complaint against people who intentionally stall queues for extended lengths of time (30m+). I know that these things do happen, and it is still a problem. The problem is compounded in that if you try to leave a queue that has one of these issues, you often get stuck with a 1 hr queue ban (leaver…

What I find fascinating about this thread is, #1 on the list (snowmen spawning underground) is still happening a year later!

I really don't think the difference between having weapon layouts of 4/3, 4/4, 5/2, and 5/3 is as significant as some people make it out to be. All of those layouts have been used to make 100k+ DPS ships, and all of those layouts have been used for highly effective tanking builds, and everything in-between. I really don't…
-
I really don't get it.... The new ship is going to be fine. It's like many people are upset because they feel that it will not be the most OP ship in the game. Is this ship capable of doing 80k+ DPS with those stats? Yes, and this is more than enough for all the content, which means the ship is at the very least going to…
-
With the price drop for the Dilithium-only ships, do you also think it could be possible to drop the price of the T5 fleet ships that cost 200k Fleet Credits + 1 ship provision? Those ships come in at the same quality (T5 common) as the Dilithium-only ships, but they are substantially more expensive and more difficult to…

I agree that the AFK penalty maybe needs a few tweaks. There are some queues where it does far more harm than good. Fleet Alert is one of them, and should probably not have an AFK penalty. Another option would be to make a Level 60 only version of Fleet Alert that is restricted to Level 60 captains only, like Starbase…
