Shadow's point is that it's more or less holding steady at the moment. Daily or even weekly flucuations of 10% are neither noteworthy nor unexpected. But, unless there's a new sink introduced this fall, expect the dil:zen exchange rate to shoot up again once the summer slump ends. I wouldn't be surprised if it fell to…
That is how they evolve. Shouldn't a rules **** be reminding him that posts in foreign languages violate the ToS? Or is that only when the foreign language appears to be a bunch of alien squigglies?
It's possible that the act of going through something is itself the learning experience. I can describe to you in explicit detail the act of sex, but without engaging in it yourself, what understanding are you capable of? Alternatively, recall the expression many (most? all?) parents tell their children; "you'll understand…
Is there a sticky on the subject in this forum? If not, there should be. Releasing that info on twitter or reddit is insufficient. Only a tiny minority of players become aware of it, typically the same players who are already prone to being tolerant of the issue. The vast majority of users are not turning to twitter,…
So why don't they just give us a daily reward bundle upon logging in, and free us from the burden of actually playing content so that we can instead spend our time customizing our character's appearance and ERPing? It's a net nerf to mark rewards, even if you complete the optionals. What's wrong with normals? Why not do…
I suspect that's just a function of the decreased activity typical of the summer. Namely that the F2P grinders are less active during the summer, while P2W casuals are slightly more active.
Maybe Season 13 could involve some 26th or 29th century time agents coming back and ordering us to take T1 and T2 ships into the past to resolve some sort of temporal crisis.
Maybe it's something you said? I'm not sure why they should. Do you care about the feelings or emotional state of the jerk? I doubt it. Is a video game even the place to concern yourself with feelings and emotional states? What happened to escapism?
I would be using it for the damage. The extra 2-3 seconds the knocback buys me are comparable to the immunity bought by ET. That's the dumbest idea I've heard so far. Seems like a contrived mechanic aimed at doing little more than increasing the time it takes to complete the mission, like doubling or tripling the NPCs'…
Creating a use for unrefined dilithium would equally reduce the rate of inflation. It may even go beyond that, as players are less inclined to farm dil on their alts, because continuing to farm past 8k on their main is immediately productive. If I was currently more inclined to be active, I could be farming 8k a day across…
To answer the question in your thread title, technically it will never stop. The rubber banding is a side effect of Cryptic's netcode. No, it's just BFAW that's the problem. AP is the least process intensive energy weapon type.
So, TBR to win? What's the cooldown like? 30s? 45s? Am I going to need to find a new deflector, and/or some new doffs, just to bring the cooldown down enough to make it a practical counter? I am not space rich. I can't work on upgrading a build while still supporting build diversity.
My entire point is that they're replaced too quickly, and/or reapply their disables too soon. There's little counterplay. Either you're already running BFAW, which is the only AOE that can actually keep up with the spawn rate, or you can do what I do and just keep focusing on the enemy ships, disables and deaths be damned.…
Of course I don't know them. I'm not in the higher channels. The only members I'm aware of from the higher channels are ones I've seen here, such as yourself or J, or ones I've seen referenced here, such as Ryan. As much as I'd like to discuss it further, I know Paul's going to shut this thread down if it keeps turning to…
Out of curiosity, are you in the higher channels? I've never seen any flaming going on in 10k, but it's the only channel I'm in, so I can't offer any anecdotal evidence regarding the higher channels. Anyway, maybe the multi-channel approach is outdated. There's enough room for e-peen stroking in the leaderboards. Higher…
Apparently this year they're actively looking into it. They're just not doing so through these forums. They're likely fearful of spreading the issue before they have a fix ready. Though I would guess anyone inclined to troll already frequents 3rd party sites, because that's where all the best info is located, especially…
Don't forget to be vigilant in verifying that your subscription has been cancelled, and that in subsequent months you're not "accidentally" billed. Cryptic may not be the worst offender in this regard, but practically every MMO has its share of billing issues and billing "issues."
Unless it's as simple as training a new boff ability, then I'm just not getting involved in it. The cost attached to every other adjustment is too high. Frankly, it's not even worth it to me to head back to spacedock to swap to another ship. Besides, as I point out, it's not a case where one or even two counters would…
