First off, you're right that it's a quick cash grab. No one has a problem with that, they DO have a problem with Cryptic / PWI apparently not wanting cash from 2/3 of their players. And if you didn't need space, why bother commenting when this flash sale debacle doesn't affect you? PS. ambassadorkael, this is strike 3.
"Packs in the store on the Arc website will be 25%-50% off from 9AM PST on June 30th to 9am PST on July 5th. The following packs will be a part of the sale. Click the links to be taken to the purchase page!" If only I could time travel like in the game.. Edit: Also, this doesn't make up for your TRIBBLE up the other day…
Because Cryptic doesn't care about you or what you want, or what they've promised / introduced. This game is only about how much money you can spend vs the time it takes you to get somewhere significant. Tier 12 - 14 equipment is nothing more than a useless grind. Any R+D past rank 10 is an even more horrible grind. If you…
Hardly. Until matter replicators currency was still in common use. Hell even WITH them it was still being used. How else do you explain TOS having Romulan Ale onboard the enterpise? Did Kirk just ask a romulan for it and get it for free? Or how about DS9? How do you explain the vendors on the station? They have to make…
You are right that no one is forced to upgrade. They just wont be able to compete in high tier content because their ship wont stand up to the new difficulty standards. The analogy stands.
Kind of a bad analogy there. Think of it more like a cellphone. Say you owned a generic cellphone 5 and paid $25 for it new. Then they release the generic cellphone 6 for $30, but expect the people who bought the 5 to shell out another $7 to update the software to work on the new network. And even then the 5 phone with the…
Okay so, tried to respec 2 different characters. The second who is 50 was able the get his skill tree the exact way it was before at 366k, the first who is 51 was not. Maybe you guys are right that its not intentional but something is messed up and I'm not the only one having this problem.
Dont bother jotting down your skill spec, they removed 3000 skill points with this update. Before DR I was capped at 366000 skill points, and the new cap when you respec is 363000. It will TRIBBLE up your build.
You are right about sloppy, but its not just the belt. Its also the new intel boots. They wont even color match the rest of the uniform as they are on completely different palette.
I actually did that before I started mission grinding today. The updated ones I'm getting are only 8kish right now. Edit: Apparently its just the Fed "Romulan Mystery" episode series that has really really bad xp. I did the Nimbus episodes and they all gave around 19k.
Maybe its only a lifer / gold perk but you can save the free ship token you get at 40 and use it on certain C-Store ships when you hit 50. I've snagged a Kar'Fi Battle Carrier on my 2 klingon characters this way, as well as a T'varo Light Warbird Refit on one of my romulans. I also have a Fed captain at 50 who still hasn't…
