All of which is why you will never see anything but a load screen in STO. Eventually, it will probably even come with commercials, to give you the feeling of watching your very own Trek episode play out before you.
-
That's a different thing entirely. Then again, I come from the days when STFs were actually far more difficult than they are now, one-shot torps were common, and 7k DPS was about max from an escort. And we still managed to get them done with the optional. Frankly, I sit back in my seat and laugh my TRIBBLE of at most…
-
It's probably going to stay pretty high over there, regardless. With a 24k refining cap and the elite AD vendor gear priced into the millions, it's pretty clear that they never want to see an astral diamond gain anywhere near the Zen purchase power of STO dilithium.
-
Actually, it's incredibly useful, and fun. If you're flying a K'tinga or Vor'Cha without cannons, you're pretty much doing yourself a disservice, since even just one RCS console is plenty to make them viable. You don't need to cram your engi slots full of them, especially for a lot of endgame content. NPCs tend to be…

You can also just close the chat window, too. There's days when I don't even want to see it, no matter what's going on in it, and so I don't. It doesn't address all of your specific issues (/hide would be best, as suggested) but it can go a long way if you just want to play without distraction.

I have two toons that I started months ago and am finally getting around to finishing, and I stopped mission play after 'Skirmish,' since they took away the borg console reward. Having been through the missions chain four other times already, I got my Subspace modulator and got out. Mirror universe, DSE, and doffing…

Yep. Functionally there is really no difference between ESD and sector space. They're both just maps with doors on them. Once just uses the ship doll and restricts your speed.
-
Yes, because all the "noobs" are going to automatically listen to the "veteran STO player."
-
That's pretty much my response to the 10k cruiser build. It's kind of sad, since outside of an STF where you have an abundance of things that are unshielded or can remain unshielded long enough to their BFAW and torp spread spam to become useful, they're really ineffective for their high cruiser DPS. Popping beams all over…
-
My initial reaction is that in the face of such an overhaul, the devs could change the energy drain mechanic of beams.
-
I don't know about 'catching up,' since EVE doesn't currently have any load screen at all. Session changes don't take any longer than that animation unless you have a crappy connection or there's a 2000 ship TiDi'd death brawl going on where you're headed. As it is, I don't see anything like that coming to STO anytime…
-
Believe me, I'm not excusing it, but you have to understand the idea behind what you just stated: Spent. They already have our money. NW is the new shiny, so they want to wring as much cash out of it as they can, too.
-
I guarantee you that they're making more off NW this weekend than they will make from all Legacy Pack sales.
-
I'd love to know why all of you think that NW players aren't paying. Zen store is open, Astral diamonds are flowing, Founders packs are being sold, and P2W is in full effect on NW beta.
-
How many Astral Diamonds did you buy today? :P
-
Contrary to popular belief, Cryptic auxiliary power is not provided by Richard Geere.
-
Correct. This is Escorts Online. The roles to be played are Damage Dealer, and Team Liability.
-
OP is correct. The D'Deridex should have only 1 Tac console. There's no point needlessly burdening it with false hopes of doing meaningful DPS.
-
Moar tears please, they are delicious.
-
Exactly. ;)
-
Tribble is looking fantastic these days. Most textures in the game just got a complete overhaul, and everything is looking sharp.
-
Sadly, there's no info there. Just a list of regurgitated statements to the effect that they know it's broke, and are waiting on Geek Squad to come fix it.
-
In recognition of the hassles experienced this weekend, Cryptic will be supplying everyone with three (3) lobi crystals, that can be used to purchase premium goods at the Lobi Crystal Consortium.
-
You want them to take STO down?
-
Flamed? No. You might get shot up, scammed, and lose all your stuff in short order if you lack a modicum of common sense.
-
EVE is good stuff. Whoever you can catch, kill and eat.
-
Jan 2013? Welcome to Cryptic. It's called that for a reason. They'll let you know when the servers are back up after they're back up. That's the best you can hope for, as far as an explanation goes.
-
The only reason we haven't been getting updates to the STO twitter feed is because Branflakes isn't going to roll off the top of his woman to TRIBBLE around with his smartphone. The NW community shill, OTOH, has plenty of time between rolling for saves with his broskis to update.
-
It's still the answer. If you can't run your own ****, you hire someone who can.
-
Pretty much. CCP collects cash monthly, likes to keep those same people paying, and therefore and updates their hardware accordingly.
