You can't expect them not to be fake and overhype, oversell their product, that's just normal business. I just feel sometime before Delta Rising and up until now, player concerns and complaints are ignored completely. The dead queues is the perfect example, modifers for crafting they promised, removing exploration, nerfing…

Well, you have to laugh at the upgrading system fundamentally. You have to re-buy gear you already bought. Developers get to not do any work, they have done zero animations, zero models - essentially just copy-paste. The notion in itself is madness, without the millions of dil for litterly nothing but copy-paste numbers.…
-
In short, we'd have to put in work, without being able to sell it after. If you look at the admirality system, that's the target work/profit balance. 1D text windows with no animations and no models and in turn we expect you to buy every ship in the entire game, I mean it doesn't get anymore low budget than that. Playing…

After kemo in STO, if you fly a slow ship or don't hit full impulse immediately, the STF will be over before you get there. Think they need to add those elite versions of all maps they promised a year ago and then maybe think about forcing certain people to play those - well that might be a little too fascist but at least…

Far out, overly complex, self-contradictive made up internet analogies 101. ... that are off-topic. Read OP's post again /edit. ps. it's like if my grandma had 11 blue cats on a hairy wednesday on the 11th of the 10th of the three quarters of the last hour of the 3rd part of the day!!
-
Well tell you one thing, we need more spamming over that mirror outfit, that for some reason made sense to every player in the entire world, but didn't cross the mind of a single developer
-
Those are all things we'd love to potentially consider one day, I mean why post if you aren't going to say anything. Even doing screened questions, they aren't saying anything at all, and don't much need to either, didn't all the complainers quit with all the Delta Rising nerfs anyway? Whoever is still around certainly…
-
What you have to realize how brilliant t6 ships were... A ship costs about 2 weeks to create on their side, no matter what tier it is. So when you paying 3000, rather than 2500, 2000 or 500 zen you are not getting more developer time put into the ship, their expenses didn't change. So, why wouldn't they? Tier 16 ships that…
-
And I also always felt that subscribers weren't getting enough for their money. I couldn't even imagine having to keep up with all systems, just upgrading or leveling alone I gave up on. 4 million dil for an upgraded ship, gear I already bought, no way. 150 patrols for a level yeah no thanks. But they must be doing…
-
Considering you got whales buying every ship there is in the entire game, and the admiralty system required zero animations and no models; budget coding text windows since crafting, it would only be fair if they add some actual content, rather than making it text only. Personally am fine with admirality, since I never…
-
I think if you are a whale then yes, it's a huge problem. Because then you gotta have enough ship to have all space sets, all weapon sets, 300 ship slots, collect all pokemon cards (ships and doff), fleet tier, crafting, upgrading. It's right up ulcer alley if you are a whale.
-
I don't think that's true at all, for the simple fact they haven't done anything to solve it at all. They done nothing for a year, they tried no solutions. Much more hilarious is that there was no problem with the queues before they created it, "it's a reporting error" remember that, at first refusing to even recognize…
-
Well, crafting, upgrading and admirality are all leveling. It's the same text based paywall and or timegates trading you better stats. So it's already here... I don't have a problem with more grinding as such, as long as the content is actual content - you know models, animations etc. that required work on their part.…
-
Yeah the whole point is fubar when we still flying in 2D space, with ship scaling, planet scaling, no piloting from the bridge and no red/yellow/green alert system. Complain about something that matters at least =D
-
A tiny population of whales is keeping the servers up - financially. Though, ever since Delta Rising, the queues have been very much dead and anyone can go in game and check for themselves. STO is real interesting in that it's probably the most generous f2p game there is, with very few things you can't unlock by playing…
-
DS9 as a carrier with exploration cruiser as pets I'd might get. But I mean the queues are dead so yeah... another ship not to fly
-
The upgrading system was released un-finished and rushed out. A fix was promised; adding modifers, but as with everything else the whales ruined it by buying into it. Same as Delta Rising, developers just laugh at them. I never upgraded anything, nor will I ever. The gear I got, I already paid for. If they want me to pay…
-
lol... Well good luck getting the queue to pop for a ground map or even space at this point
-
For it to be in space, it would have to be in 3D... So forgetting piloting from the bridge, where all the shows took place, it's not just NOT star trek, it's not even in space. Many, many design problems from day 1 they rushing the game out, ship models, size of planets I mean there isn't anything in the whole game that is…

Your character is different, on log in screen versus in-game? I'd try going to the tailor, maybe click the character portrait and select a new costume. They might have added changes to the character editor in between you playing last, that are effecting your character. If your aim is to only play the story missions I'd say…
-
Oh yeah the lore of admiralty missions toally breaks immersion... Look, the concept of that system, you buy ships, that you won't ever fly, in exchange for semi un-nerfed Delta Rising exp. It's a text window. With letters in it. That you pay money to interact with. So sorry, but stfu and buy some more ships!
-
I was thinking "the boff slots formally known as universal" but no I'd say call them "dynamic" or "t5 universals". And, the obvious reason you can't put intel and command or other ships is of course it being a huge selling point for those ships. I wouldn't even say they shouldn't cash wall those abilities on to certain…
-
You only worsen it by being an angry emo with the ignore button and flipping out, at least make it seem that you are not. People have this idea that the ignore buttom is some kind of punishment threat they can hold over others, but it's really just a target on your back and a huge sign of weakness; it's a visual…
-
It was very hard to get into stargate for us who had grown up laughing at macgyver then they threw the major from twin peaks in there playing a major, slept in that costume for all those years I guess, for a complete wtf
-
Because historically and statistically, they shy away from everything that isn't the most low budget coding possible. Look at upgrading, crafting and admiralty systems, they are all 1D text windows with no models, no animations and the least possible work put in. Where is exploration you think? PVP? Piloting from the…
-
Yeah "universal" boff slots aren't universal, they need to correct that, and that ship has the same consoles number and weapons; so it's what 30$ for some more shields, no thanks! Also, the b'rotlh skin is still bugged for the fleet bop, even though exact same model as regular bop, where they kind of owe me 500 zen for…
-
Outside the sound effects, that are straight copy paste, STO doesn't remind me of star trek at all. You'd have to make the game 3D but way more importantly, piloting from the bridge. I played: http://gamecola.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/184721-star-trek-starfleet-academy-starship-bridge-simulator-snes.png Which is a…

If spending money gives you an advantage, you can only get with money then yes, it is pay2win. It's not about pvp capture the flag matches "winning". So yes and no, because it's not cash exclusive - you can grind it out for free, meaning it's available without using money. Admiralty system I feel is filling in for the…
-
At this point I am just waiting on them to go after contraband and marauding since it's the only thing left they haven't nerfed or deleted.
-
Voice acting nice effort Everything else flunked out big time What was supposed to ADD content to the game damned nearly removed all old content and made it unplayable. It didn't just flunk in its own category it has potentially ruined the entire game. Don't know what grade that would be, like triple double deficit…
