Yes! Mine has started freezing between map transfers again. This just started a couple of weeks ago. It generally happens after 3-4 map transfers and then it will freeze.
Hi, Have you guys with the video driver issues tried launching the sto gameclient directly? Create a shortcut on your desktop that points to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Perfect World Entertainment\Star Trek Online_en\Star Trek Online.exe" and just double click it. I had the same crashes to the desktop and creating a shortcut…
Yes, I am loving the changes so far! The 30 minute cooldown on patrol missions bothers me none, just fly to another system and play on. That and the steady stream of dilithium is good as well. I also like where this is going so far. The UI lag and BOFF's unseating is still a pain, but so far this is looking much better…
Would it be worth adding that if you're playing a Romulan you should choose the bridge officers with the "Romulan Operative" or "Superior Romulan Operative" traits as you progress through the storyline so you don't have to spend a fortune buying them later? Great guide!
Hi, This has started occurring much more frequently now than it had been in the past. It generally occurs during map transitions (ie. warping one sector to another, beaming up from ground to space, going from normal map to stf). I have the same symptoms as everyone else, warping into the new map shows all BOFF stations…
One thing that some of my fleetmates mentioned was if you were using an Intel BOFF and didn't need the intel powers train up a regular (non intel) BOFF and slot them instead. Apparently the combination of Intel BOFFs and the loadout bug make it hit more often. Using all non-intel BOFFs doesn't make it happen as much. I'm…
I really enjoy playing my KDF, and man is he a dilithium/contraband/R&D machine! The ship selection is kind of spotty, but the new T6 Delta Rising ships are nice, and the T5U's are pretty powerful. Give one a try and see how you like it. There is nothing like a decloak, fully buffed Alpha strike on unsuspecting opponents!
Thanks Everyone! While I'm really not having any problems I just thought it would be nice if we were given the opportunity to switch during an episode that switched from space to ground. My normal routine is to switch to all ground and play ground, then switch to all space and play space. Just a personal preference to have…
Not to hijack your Chimera build thread but I was wondering if darkjeff could elaborate on the attack pattern/FAW info he just gave out? So if I understand correctly I would create a keybind for say (T) that has (all my attack patterns (APA, APB, APD, APO)) + (all my beam (BFAW/BO) or cannon abilities (CSV/CRF) ) and then…
Have no fear I have the same problem (every now and then). What I do - keep mashing the other direction keys (or hold the move right key) Jump with the spacebar Switch between no reticule, reticule (B) and aiming mode (X) Eventually mine quits. Sorry it's not a more scientific answer but that's what I do. Good luck
I'm running a full Transphasic build on an Aventine class Patrol Escort with 5 Transphasic Locators and it's a blast to fly:) (no pun intended). I throw the Borg transphasic torpedo on there for extra damage during the Borg STF's but it really is a fun ship to fly. No gravity well but I use eject warp plasma plus a DOFF to…
Not sure I saw it mentioned but the Rule 62 Multipurpose combat console is pretty nice. +10% damage for torpedoes and mines. Lobi console but every percentage point helps these days.
I'm running a KDF Tac officer in my Raptor with 4 x Elachi DHC's and 1 Elachi DBB up front. In back I have the Kinetic cutting beam and a heavy disruptor turret. I echo the sentiments above. This Raptor is one nasty bird!
My Klingon flies the Mat'ha raptor with 4 Elachi DHC's and 1 Elachi DBB up front, plus turrets in the back so I guess I get the best of both worlds. I use CSV and CRF to blow away the shields and then the DBB with Beam Overload to really lay the hurt on. Anything left the DHC's take care of. I'm not a fan of CSV although…
I like using EWP on my torpedo boat. I also equip a purple DOFF that has a chance to immobilize your foe if they get caught in your warp plasma. I have tons of power put towards shields and engines so I hit evasive maneuvers, spread the plasma all over a group, then back off about 2-3KM and pound them with TS3 and Cluster…
No I generally don't sell to the Orions. Not that I'm prejudiced or anything but like you mentioned in the other post - I'm more interested in the dilithium and contraband :)
I generally do my Marauding first thing in the morning (about 7am Eastern) and I've noticed that the missions always go in cycles. One week I'll find plenty of contraband and Forced Labor missions, then for a few days I won't find enough to fill the roster and then it will cycle back. Here's the circuit I generally use:*…
Thanks again for the suggestions on the Qin Raptor! I took your advice and switched to a Mirror Universe Qin, used the BOFF setup and mostly the DOFF setup you suggested and it's parsing at about 8K currently. Working on the undine marks now to get the turret and torp for the Counter Command ordnance set. This rocks!
I'm also unable to login to my Fed character. The game client disconnects from the server at 88% when I choose either normal login or safe login. My KDF character works fine though and I can login with no issues. Just need to access my Fed character. I think he might have been on ESD as well when I left him. Thanks!
I use a Tempest class Patrol Escort Refit as a pure transphasic torpedo boat and it works very well. The Breen set, obelisk warp core, 2 cluster torpedos, rapid reload transphasic consoles, the adaptive anti-borg transphasic torpedo all work very well together, plus you get to use the Nadion saturation bomb. Set weapons…
STO to me started off as a fun diversion. I wanted to play a sci-fi game and had been thinking of playing EVE Online, but a friend persuaded me to give STO a try. Needless to say I really liked it! I liked it so much I became a lifer just to get the veteran destroyers (which I still run today on occasion). I like the…
Ha! You're right about Pi Canis! Apparently I lose all sense of time when I play my KDF character because it's so fun :) Pi Canis does take about 50-60 minutes. You can also fail one optional, come out and take that sortie again (they are repeatable every 30 minutes) and pass it the second time around. 9 missions for…
If you have a KDF character run the daily "Pi Canis Path of the Warrior" which requires you to run Sortie Alpha and Sortie Bravo, and you have to pass the all optional objectives on each mission to get the Pi Canis Path of the Warrior reward. Sortie Alpha gives 1440 Sortie Bravo gives 1440 Path of the Warrior gives 2400…
Tons of thanks for this post! I put this setup on my Vesta and it is regularly parsing 5-6K DPS in Infecteds! I haven't tried it in PvP yet but hopefully will soon! One more purple proj wpns doff to go and I should have it.
Just an update: I was able to slot my three purple technicians with the same name by using the technique of dragging the purple tech over another active space officer and then saving the loadout while in sector space. They stayed as long as I stayed in space, but as soon as I hit a ground map (like beaming down to Klingon…
