I like it, I might try to acquire it actually. I really grew to like the strange 32nd century features like detached nacelles. I don't know how it works* or why it makes sense, but it tells me they're freakishly avanced, our monkey brains don't unde…

Are you sure you want just "more consideration" and not actually equality. Because you always bring up how the KDF wasn't or isn't equal, and when we point to Klingon ships, Klingon content, Klingon artwork, Klingon storylines, the all do not count …
-
I think they knew very early on that the starting situation for the KDF just wasn't great. But the game didn't really take off until it went F2P, and at that point, the game already had a lot more content for the KDF. And over the years, they have …

I thought that was the plot of Command & Conquer's Tiberium Conflict.

Facebook, Twitter and forums have been around for a while, and so have community managers. I suspect that they do what they do because it works, and I can see why it works. It doesn't matter if they "promote" the forums as the way to discuss STO in …

If marketing or "community guy" is like firefighting, than posting on twitter or facebook is putting out the big fire so it doesn't spread. But it's really more the opposite of firefighting - putting the fire where it will spread the best and burn a…

The people on twitter and facebook are also part of the community. Information usually finds its way to the forums anyway. Because we are a community, we don't actually need the community manager to write posts personally. Members of the community w…

I am not a fan of J'ula and not a big fan of taking over an NPC, because it's not my character, not my build. But I really enjoyed the story and the Klingon mythology involved here. I figure the whole "Klingon soul" thing is just that the Klingons …

The Tier 5 consoles tend to be not so exciting, because they lack a passive. They might be interesting for set items, but even that is rarely useful. IIRC, the Tier 5 Prometheus and Galaxy Class give access to their ships respective separation abili…

She lasted longer than a few of her colleagues, but 65 is still too soon. My condolences to her friends and family.

I don't remember them saying that. 6 months is more the time from "we have an idea we want to make soon" and "it's done". But that doesn't mean it takes 6 months. I believe the process for a ship itself was more described like something done about a…

reyan would surely point out that we don't really have good results with polls on ship preferences, regardless the results. I choose to interpret this differently: Tier 6 Nova can only mean one thing: Tier 7 confirmed!

There is a video in the blog post showing off the hair styles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgxlXrCGgu4&feature=youtu.be

I am not as excited about this than I was about the DS9 documentary, but maybe it'll convince me to rewatch VOY on Netflix after all. Maybe.

The obsession is nothing special, really. Just imagine you had a favorite canon ship, say the Galaxy Class or Constution CLass. But there is no endgame version of it. That's all there is to it. There are people that like this ship. And they see no …
-
No one can really tell why Osyraa had such an easy time overwhelming the Discovery crew. Can anyone point to a decision made by Tilly that would clearly be at fault? I think the takeaway is really what Picard already told Data once: Sometimes you c…

Maybe he is a third, yet unknown entity. But the references feel strong. The way he joked reminded me a bit of a Q like being, the Guardian was a lot more straight-forward and matter-of-fact like. But the "props" otherwise seem to point more towards…

It's possible, depending on whether some of the designers played STO themselves or just got to see STO's work due to the back & forth between CBS and Cryptic, but in the end - the STO Intel ships were inspired by previous canon Star Trek ships. …

No Event ship has been a full-spec ship. The only exception is the Risan Corvette, which has a Fleet variant that gives it full Pilot Spec. Cryptic said that was a one-off because it just felt wrong to have a Risan Corvette that's all about speed an…

There is a good chance that this year Winter Event will alsog rant another Feklhiri ship. Might want to wait for the announcement of the ship to see if it won't be just as cool to you. Then you can grind it out for free.

Well, they use subspace microstrings entangled along the longitudal axis create a stable tether between the nacelle and the engineering section. This also allows easy transfer of energy (and control input) via a series of polarized nadion-tachyon tr…

Why would it be far easier to disrupt said field than it would be to cut through the armor? Haven't force fields in Star Trek typically been much tougher than the hull of ships? Only ablative armor seemed to make them a bit tougher again. I guess th…

Thanks for these notes, somtaawkhar. This is always appreciated. Sometimes I actually watch the livestreams eventually, but this helps enable discussion about the stuff they talk about even for people that don't.

Some old Fed and KDF only traits ended up in the Dilithium Store, IIRC, where you could get them for free for your "other-faction" character. Some did end up in lockboxes. Last time someone mentioned certain traits not being available cross-faction…

I guess it is a monkey's paw thing, but I can't help but blame the people that wished for it: "I don't want to gamble, gambling is horrible, won't you think of the kids?! Just put it in the C-Store. It needs to be an account unlock, too, otherwise I…

The other factor to remember is - after those trips, you added 9 billion inhabitants to a planet. no matter how you spread it, that's lot of people. They all need water, food, medicine, shelter... So 15,000 aboard Galaxy Class ships is cool. But yo…

Don't forget the Lower Decks stuff. Looks like the Pakled joining the Federation didn't happen quite as nicely as STO character builder options might have suggest to us. The end of the MIrror Universe Empire... Well, that really already happened in…

And you're talking the wrong lesson. People that visit the forums - they tend to become very quickly aware of what they post on twitter, facebook, twitch and what not, because among the people that visit the forums, there are lots that follow the ga…

The general rule of thumb is: If it's not from a weapon, it's exotic. There are a few exceptions, when weapons summon "exotic" effects, like Gravimetric Torpedoes produce gravity rifts or Plasma-Emission Torpedoes produce small clouds that inflict …

That was a great episode. More exploration of human nature than deep space exploration or pew pew. I thought I recognized Adira's boyfriend from another show, and indeed, Ian Alexander played Buck on the OA. (In my opinion a fantastic show, if you'…
