I've always wanted unaligned ship types so we could have a mercenary working for the group we start as. Doesn't even have to BE a unique group, just having cross-faction ship bundle of non-fed/kdf/rom/dom ships available would be enough; our characters can wear Mercenary outfits, let the boffs do the same and bingo, my Fed…
I just headcanon in that Elite Force's Hazard Team armor/shields were distributed to the rest of Starfleet. One of the Engineering Kit costume pieces even looks like the Hazard Team's equipment.
It's also possible that its from attacks made from 9.9km away and haven't finished their cycling and/or reached you (in the case of torpedoes). I don't doubt that a bug like that could happen, but seeing it happen does help show it can and does happen, like the video of the USS Running Man bug, or a Breen Ship getting a…
That's pretty normal, all their escorts have two beams and a Quad Cannon also pretty normal, every one of their mobs have something powerful, Cruisers have Tractor Beam 3, Torp HY 2 and BFAW 1, Escorts have Cannon Scatter 3, BFAW 2, Torp HY 2 and even a Point Defense Turret (that will vape your shields and shred any pets),…
I use single cannons sparingly, usually on my all cannon ships (just to add in an extra visual) and I always use one Single Cannon on the Breen Heavy Raider (along with Dual and Heavy Dual, or switching the Dual for Quad if the energy types match up) because that fires from the almost unused lower weapon mount on the ship…
Reminds me of one guy back on the City of Heroes forum, he wanted the Devs to ban Roleplaying altogether, because doing so would triple the playerbase at the bare minimum, overnight, guaranteed. His reasoning (as it were) was that for every RPer banned, a farmer would replace them due to not having to 'deal' with an RPer…
Heck, I've done it so many times I challenge myself by sprinting non-stop through the whole thing without using the bunny hop to control my drifting. Instead I use it, by using mouse look (well, holding down Right Button) and looking into the turn before hitting it, therefor sliding through the turn like a drifting car…
I just ported a couple of my toons from STO and restylized them for Neverwinter. Cause that's when they're on the Holodeck relaxing and doing STO-Modern day LARPing.
I wanna know why a space desert scorpion had an Bannana Split on'm. That melts at room temperature let alone IN THE DESERT. Or how TOS era Romulans got themselves a bottle of Chateau Picard and Root Beer!
It'd also be neat to revisit some things from the TOS era. like the Gangster Planet (the mission reward could be a 1911a1 or a Tommy Gun!) or find out what happened to the black/white and white/black zealots.
It's what I do for my Alien toons. Heck, my first KDF toon was a Human turncoat, just labeled as Alien. Same for my Romulan Tal Shiar traitor, made well before romulan side was around.
Considering all the talk about on-screen canon combat abilities, I have to wonder how the newest (at the time) and most powerful ship in Starfleet, the Enterprise-D, can be disabled and completely captured by two Birds of Prey and less than a dozen Ferengi. Even if it came to bum rushing the pirates Flight 93 style, with…
Thing is, City of Heroes had the same problem. Enter Mission. Kill skuls. Click Glowie. Survive 3 ambush waves. Exit and get next Newspaper Mission. It's hard to have an MMO that doesn't rely on the standard set of mission objectives. We play games to do something, and a whole lot of Star Trek is about things that wouldn't…
I love the event, if only for the massive amount of killing my toons can do. Especially my main Fed Tac and her T6 Akira built to be nearly like the torpedo boat ship of canon as well as the front line combat ship of Star Trek: Armada. She can spit out so many photon torpedoes it's unreal. And fun. So many targets! <3
I think there's one thing people are overlooking; due to Parallels, everyone's theory is the correct one. Of course, myself, I believe the Borg was created from X-Men's techno-organic virus mixing with Cybermen's Upgrade technology. Being flung back in time. Somehow. I'm not sure, just, blame it on the writer's strike.
I've had a string of failed "Turbolift Maintenance" assignments. I'm talking about 80-90% of the time it fails, no matter how many purple maintenance specialists I put in there. I find it hilarious, because I'm sending more and more specialized repair teams, and EVERY FREEKING DAY the dang thing explodes or falls down the…
That's why I favor funny or (somewhat) unique characters. One is an alien loosely based on Roger Wilco. An Officer Exchange Program from a different government who's the best Maintenance Specialist 2nd Class they had. It's just that 'Maintenance Specialist 2nd Class' is nothing more than a janitor. But it's okay! His…
