I'm confused about the access point for the battlezone. Intuitively I ventured to the Gon'cra Nebula to look for the battlezone, thinking it to be similar to the Badlands in terms of access point. I had to ask around and it took me a while to realize it was in the Gon'cra system. Anyway to label this clearly for players?
I don't hate the design per se... It just looks like a kitbash between a Klingon and Federation ship. If they downsized the secondary hull it might look better. The proportions seem off.
I'm a but disappointed cryptic chose to put Tom Paris in Starfleet. Doesn't really make sense from a character standpoint. In End game he wasn't in Starfleet which was much more true to character. (Yes I know that was technically an alternate reality). I would have like to see him in some other capacity... At the very…
If I may offer some feedback to the devs, I think you should seriously consider rewarding at least ONE borg neural processor/isomorphic injection/ancient power cell/etc on normal level queues. Scale the reward to 3 for advanced and 5 for elite. I understand you want players to get better, but much of your player base is…
Can't disagree with what the OP says. Beginning to think I should just stop playing this game. I really enjoyed the game up till season 9.5. That's when the grind started to get to me. But I guess I convinced myself that the expansion would be a return normal... That the lack of content in season 9 would be corrected by a…
+1.... Wish they'd offer a starter pack like LOR. That's the route I went and I love my tvaro, got myself a scimi on sale later on. They've been the only ships I've liked. Personally I have the cash for the delta pack, but I'm not interested in buying ships I don't want... Especially for traits. I'm sure traits have some…
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/tolS6vRW_keWAF5HCelmyNg/htmlview?pli=1#gid=0 Here's a guide from sto reddit. Note that you don't always get the purple materials, even though the box is named after them. Keep playing the queues and you'll eventually get some. trellium k is the cheapest on the exchange and should be…
I would like to see a dynamic multifaceted Delta Quadrant. Like others have said, this is really where there should be tons of exploration, dynamic story content based on choice (much like the last two feature episodes but even better) and a true sense of going into the unknown. I will be extremely disappointed if the…
This ^. I've been playing since FTP and have yet to buy a thing in the lobi store. I'm saving for a ship, but I know that even when I get to 800 lobi (at about 550 right now) I'm still not sure that I'd pull the trigger. I love the Romulan timeship warbird, but since it doesn't use singularity powers it seems like a stupid…
Just turned in both a monkey and an epohh and no bonus marks were applied... Wondering if this is a glitch or just a big FU to the players that put the time in before the event....
I like the Borg STFs... Though ISE is way too easy now a days. It used to be a thrill to finish with 7 minutes to spare and now that seems to be the norm. I like doing Fleet Star base defense and colony invasion. I also liked the fleet star base incursion but I haven't played it since they changed the marks rewards…
Is this thread what STO is to you or what you wish it was because it reads like the latter. This game scratches my Star Trek itch. It is at its best when it is creating missions like LOR or the FE series. I am starting to tire of the grind and took my first long break from the game a few months ago. I think a big problem…
F2P is unsustainable?! This game released an expansion with another along the way. They have enough team members now to go back and fix all the crappy stuff about the game. P2P for this game and this thread wouldn't even exist, because the game would be dead.
I'm a big Star Trek fan (obviously) and until f2p I had never even heard of STO. Overall I like the game, but from reading the forum posts and beta tester comments this game was going nowhere and most likely wouldn't even exist today if it had stayed P2p.
Thanks for the interview with Captain Geko. It was very informative... It assuaged some of my fears about the dilithium costs currently on tribble. But it also raised some questions... Especially regarding the new items in expansion 2 that will be exclusively tied to crafting. Hopefully we won't have to grind the crafting…
I crafted a few aegis sets for my alts early on... Was great because aegis was a great set that leveled up with my toons. This new system seems geared toward endgame... At least if you want anything good. Given the high dilithium costs and gambling component I would rather stick with the fleet and reputation gear. Besides,…
I'm with you on the cruiser... I'm actually doing some pearl runs for next year's ship. Absolutely zero interest in that ship which is a first for me since I have all the others. To the OP, I'm surprised you're having troubles with the floaters. Use a combo of the arrows and space bar key and it should be a breeze. I've…
I'm hoping they're taking out the exploration missions because they are going to revamp it. Deangelo has been systematically revamping older systems in the game. I think tying exploration to the foundry and truly getting some random but high quality mission (maybe or maybe not tied to a reputation system) would greatly…
I'm very happy they've updated crafting, if only because it means the team is invested in making this game solid in all aspects. I really hope Exploration and the Foundry are next, as I believe fan based missions tied to a cohesive system will greatly improve this game's longevity for casual gamers like myself. Having said…
I kind of have to agree with the OP. Take Risa for example... I'm grinding all these lolunhat favors in order to get swimwear which I can only use on Risa. But what else is there to do on Risa aside from grinding lolunhat favors? Same thing with Dyson and Undine reps. Don't get me wrong... I enjoy all these things, but…
The best ships that have pets are the armitage, galaxy dreadnaught and vesta. I love my armitage and vesta. But since you asked about galaxy vs odyssey I would totally go galaxy. Original enterprise d is still the best looking ship IMO. Both the oddy and the avenger are really ugly. Unless you mainly pvp, it ultimately…
I'm having the same issue as well... brand new laptop... Inspiron 7000 with nvidia geoforce graphics, intel haswell i7, 16 gb ram... Windows 8.1... should work but it's frozen.
I have both the defiant and the armitage. Love them both. Got the defiant first and really like its maneuverability. Didn't use the cloak past the first week. I now have fleet versions of both.. Defiant kills with that 5th tac console slot. That said... For the past 9 months or so I've been flying the fleet armitage almost…
I get what the OP is saying but I doubt the Fed faction will ever be seriously neglected. When people think about Trek and they find this game, they almost certainly gravitate towards the Federation. Its why they just did a new tutorial for the Feds. Hopefully they can clean up some of the earlier missions as well. I…
Maybe its my naievette being that this is the first and only pure mmo I've ever played... but I run arc instead of steam for the simple fact that when I downloaded steam my computer went haywire and got noticeably slower. Ive had no such issue with arc. To the OP, here's at least one non steam sto player.
