Has there been any word about fixing this or has Cryptic given up completely?
-
I just looked it up on the STO Wiki, Akaar is indeed a five pip Fleet Admiral. I don't know why this isn't in the game already, the mechanic is already in place. They should let us select four of our unused ships as a "space away team" that would behave like our Boffs do on ground missions. And any remaining ships not part…

It wouldn't surpise me if they added the Nexus at some point to STO. The Nexus was a pretty weak plot device in a pretty bad Star Trek movie. STO has added since launch: The Nimbus III adventure zone from ST V. The Scimitar from Nemesis. Zindi lock boxes from Enterprise. And they are about to add the Talaxians, the Kazon…
-
That is a good idea. Which has also been suggested since the beginning, and been ignored since the beginning.
-
That's a good point, that has been raised since the beginning. And has been ignored by Cryptic since the beginning. I'm a little unsure how this level increase is happening. Currently, max level is Vice Admiral. They are adding another 10 levels and the rank of Fleet Admiral. So we go from a level 50 Vice Admiral, to a…

I am having the same problem. Since I have barely played 30 minutes in the past 6 months I want to unsubscribe and uninstall so I don't waste any more money on this **** game. But now Cryptic in their incompetence won't let me access my account. Typical.

I should have mentioned that back in 2008/2009 the Star Trek Online Devs were promising all sorts of cool features that never panned out. The same thing might happen with Star Citizen, although they haven't given a firm release date. Instead they say it will be released when it's ready and not just slapped together and…
-
Agreed. Star Citizen is also supposed to be mod friendly, with player run servers, and the game developers are fully expecting fans to make Star Trek, Star Wars, BSG, Firefly mods. So probably a year or two after Star Citizen is released someone will make a Star Trek mod, and we'll get a proper Star Trek MMO, albeit an…

I can't judge it yet without seeing it all. But, from what little I've seen of the inside of the Dyson Sphere, it doesn't look like the inside of a hollow sphere, where the surface of the map should wrap up and around. Instead, it looks like a normal STO planet surface on the bottom with another planet surface on the…
-
That's a good well thought out theory. The Voth would be the most logical Voyager bad guy to bring back. Much more so than the Kazon or Vidians. So that probably means it will be either the Kazon or the Vidians. Or some other one off forehead race that no one cares about.
-
I know right? How dare he say anything negative about the perfection that is Cryptic. The single greatest video game developer in the history of everything. The greatest thing to ever happen to Star Trek. The makers of not only the best Star Trek game, but the Best. Game. Ever. Who the **** is he to bad mouth Cryptic!?…

Starfleet Command was just a video game version of a Star Trek Board game popular in like the 70's or 80's. It made sense for it to be 2D. But a space based MMO made in the 21st century should have had 3D flight.
-
I'm sure a lot of other players are going to do what I'm going to do when LoR comes out. Create a Romulan character, play all the missions, reach end game way too fast. Then go back to occasionally playing only my Fed character waiting months for the next dribble of content. (And lockboxes, Fleet base and Embassy special…
-
The Devs have said before that when STO was still in development they got family members to play test it. To see how accessible it would be to the general population. Back then STO had full 3D movement in space, but too many of the people chosen to play test it got confused with the 3d movement. So because a few of the…

Normally I loath shows with either a laugh track or are filmed before a live studio audience. But the Big Bang Theory, though far from being my favourite comedy is funny enough, often enough, to mildly entertain me. And with the exception of Community and maybe Mythbusters, it is the only show with as many geek reference,…
-
Which is all well and good, but the game goes out of it's way to remind us that everyone else are admirals too. Nearly every NPC we talk to refers to us as "Rear Admiral Lower Half" or "Vice Admiral" each time we talk to them. And by End Game the only thing left to do are grind the Fleet Actions and STF's when we are…
-
I absolutely agree. In fact it seems like a no brainer, I don't know why we haven't had this since the beginning.
-
One time the mirror universe Defiant did dog fight a couple of Birds of Prey (Bird of Preys? I'm not sure what the plural of Bird of Prey is) between Terok Nor's Habitat ring and docking ring. The problem in STO is the biggest ships can do what the Defiant did, only slower. In STO the Defiant can easily fit between the…
-
This. Absolutely this. DS9 is my favourite Trek series, but I try to avoid DS9 in STO as much as possible because it looks so bad, inside and out, mainly due to the ridiculous size of the station. When we leave ESD we spawn in quite a distance away facing the Star Base we just left. So why is it when we leave DS9 we spawn…
-
Another example of one of Cryptics Devs badly missing the mark. Here's a thought, how about the people who make Star Trek games actually watch a few episodes so they know what it's supposed to be like.
-
Me too. But I don't think we will ever see either "One Sector Map to Rule Them All", or consensual open world PVP, as much as most of want to see it.
-
I read most of those, couldn't even bother reading all of the Voyager ones, they were so bad. Some of the DS9 ones could have been kind of alright episodes. But for the most part there is a good reason why none of those episodes were made, they sucked. If they had been made they would have been the worst episodes of their…
