Not really sold on either of these designs, so I picked what I thought was "the lesser of two evils". Trek and STO already have a lot of "flying wing" style designs -- in part or in whole -- so, I'm staying with the choice which feels farther away from that.
I chose Alpha. Trek and STO both have interesting swept-wing starship designs already. I like the "classic UFO" look of the Alpha candidate as a different direction.
I've enjoyed these "temporal war" vignettes increasingly since they started, but this one, "Purity", is exceptionally well-written, in my opinion. Thank you, Paul Reed.
Mirror Universe uniform sets in the Lobi Store -- as single-character unlocks? Honestly, I've spent more money (and grind-time) in STO than I care to admit, largely because I always felt that Cryptic was fairly good at balancing its desire for profit with maintaining the goodwill of the majority of players. But this just…
Anyone have an idea when the Valiant might actually be put up for sale? A week? A month? "It's Still In Development -- Check Back Regularly"? Announcements are welcome, but tentative release dates are helpful. :smile: Cheers,
The lockbox has some interesting things in it, for sure, but I confess, I was very much hoping for an Arboreal or (dare I hope?) an Insectoid bridge officer to add to my ship crew(s) alongside my Xindi-Reptilian. Ah, well, maybe next time. Thanks for the preview!
Thanks to Joe Jing, and to everyone else, who worked so hard to bring us these character improvements. I certainly appreciate them. Beyond giving STO a broader range of character possibibilities, the new additions also work against the inevitable aging of the game's graphics, and that can only be a good thing. Thanks again!
Except that, in the Star Trek Online era (2409), the uniform division colors have changed. Red is for Tactical and Security; Blue is for Science and Medical; and Gold is for Engineering and Operations. Tuvok wears red in 2409 because that's the current color for the Security division. Players are, of course, free to color…
Thanks, dastahl and Cryptic, for this speedy attempt to fix the dilithium problem. It's much appreciated. I don't usually bother posting on the forums, as I'm too busy playing the game, but this dilithium issue brought me here to protest -- only to find the issue already addressed. Again, thanks to all at Cryptic for this…
Looks like the Romulan Faction is winning the straw poll as I read this, which makes me sigh. Yes, Romulans in the game would be fun, but I'd rather see aspects of the existing game improved first, While I don't play KDF myself, it's openly acknowledged that the Klingon faction isn't fully formed or finished yet, when…
And that's why the lockboxes aren't considered gambling under the law -- because you always get /something/ for your money. To be considered gambling under the law, someone would have to lose (i.e. get nothing for their money), and that's not happening here. Lockboxes are more like the games at a carnival or fair --…
Thank you to everyone who answered my post. I think I've found a Fleet which works for me, and I wish all those Fleets who so generously offered me a place all strength and success in the universe of STO. Cheers, KFS
