I mean the special frigates that would go with that ship, 4 bird-of-prey or something. I sprung for the elite versions and found them strangely slow to accelerate and turn. In general, pets with forward cannons are tough to use. Yeah ... I would imagine 12 slavers would be pretty fun. and ya, hanger pets with mines can be…
I'll stand by what I said, just to add this w/r/t the consoles, personally, this is just my experience, but I found them to be unworkable. novelty items. while the pets do seem to have good behavior, the main problem is that they seem to get agro and insta-die, their defensive ability just isn't scaled up properly or…
it's cool, but mostly for a status thing, but it's difficult to use and the elite frigates may still be bugged, when it came out it was reported _and_ confirmed. weeks ago, someone said they were still bugged so, you get the most status and respect for making the darn thing work but, if you are a pvp guy and do HY torpedos…
I'm not sure exactly what you mean, but ingame, how the ships actually behave, the vo'quv is the most cumbersome, nothing comes close and the pets don't make up for it :-( they seem to be the slowest turning and accelerating pets in the game, they fly like mini-vo'quvs
that's a load of bs. some people are collectors, some people actually wanted them, and a lot of people have alt armies that they put in different ships (it's a dollhouse game for many), and yeah some people only 1/2 wanted them until things were changed, who knows. but to sum it up as that is just plain wrong all I know is…
heh, yup. that was always a bit confusing after trying to make a klingon char (and giving up) I thought "what were they going for? like maybe they are just scrappy-tough little guys?" in relation to alien models though, whatever the range of sizes will be for klingon, I'd hope that the aliens are still a wider range.…
yeah, there's something to this, and it may or may not have anything to do with maintenance the problem is that there's 2 races. one to get to the end, and the other to grab a flag A couple times I have had opportunity to grab both first and second, I haven't tried it, it was just too much of a **** move. But it's…
thanks for all the great tips, appreciate it I understand where you are coming from, but depending on playstyle, personality, preference, etc - not every ship is going to be all that fun for any given person. Sometimes, when leveling up for a ship trait it's just ok, or surprising fun, or a real drag because for some weird…
I did a khittomer ground recently (last night) once the borg adapted to a weapon the remodulate didn't work or either they were instantly adapting I had to keep switching back to the crafted rifle
if you want to play, in life, you take the good with the bad, to some degree but, of late, the bad has been complete TRIBBLE. so bad that peoples spirits are kind of broken over it. this kind of bad is exceptional, and like most off-the-charts things, it's because of something else. I have no idea what that "something…
It's just a tool. The fact that some people are tools, well that can't be stopped, it can be helped by talking things out, but that can't be stopped. I think a lot of people would have a lot of fun with it. Some do today, more might be better. Not that I don't understand the reservations, I still just come down on the…
I've heard of this, but I never saw it. I never saw anything that wasn't stopped cold by some random good nature person. and it was only in 10k, like kids talking tough, trying to be bigger than they are. That's not to say I haven't needed to step in and try to say "grow up" in some form, generally I found that if you give…
that sounds like fun, it's all about fun. there's more room than people think for different ships. I'd think though, with all the novel traits (reputation and otherwise) and gear, just about anything can do adequate dps for any task, excepting a few of the elite pve-que games. in fact, the some ships that aren't min/maxed…
you know, I know. there is a dark side to the dps bs. the 14yo squeeker ranting all about dps. it's ugly. but I can think of two positive concrete examples one is the speed racing they have been doing on the salt flats for almost 100 years. it's not just one big bundle, there are classes and sub-classes and different…
westmetals, I do know you have to install .... java I think it is, for one of them. But that's a very general (nonspecific) security hole I'm just not willing to deal with. Besides, you don't really know where the 3rd party tool is coming from and what it's doing either. With the current bad behavior, I'd actually worry…
I don't really have a great interest in a forum bickerfest, so, last post from me here not that objections are 100% without grounds, but none of us here have "data", we just have experience and observation, and when it comes to doffing, I have good amount of that. and the people I've spoken with about this also have it.…
You know, I think people would be ok with 1-time stuff, seems like a complete waste of dev-time to me, but whatever, there's probably room for it in the game. Removing old stuff though (right before the event??) and sort of retro-actively declaring it "limited edition" is what people are sour about. They could have just as…
the reddit stuff is a different flavor, a lot less snark for one, and more genuinely informative about peoples experiences in some ways I think there's a population of players that have entirely given up on these forums, some of them are on reddit it's worth a scan-through
This was _not_ exclusivity based thing, it was something else. There's room in this game for limited time ships and items. It's easy, build something, make an event (or use an existing one), promote the hell out of it with advertizing and email-bombs, etc etc. Do it well before the event to build up excitement. Have the…
no fleet guramba, that topic gets posted now and again cool ship so the next posts on the topic are people wondering if there will be a t6 guramba and then maybe a fleet t6 maybe? hope so :-)
I couldn't disagree more. It feels more like a new game-philosophy-from-above (parent company) that they were just told to implement in some way. if there were 3 ships at this event people would play to get 3 ships, and play with them, and many would outfit them to varying degrees, and so on. but maybe they felt risa was…
they already did don't you recall the samsar & astika? flying space-TRIBBLE, we all had a good laugh about them when they came out. those might have better shapes for t6 carriers, like an aircraft carrier motif. but whatever. I'm sure it's difficult to come up with unique ideas. yeah, the nandi looks a little odd. I can…
I don't know about the guy you are referring to, but no ... clearly, some people do have a dire need to be **** about it to the OP, it's just a "this makes no sense" sort of thing, and I did read from a mod/dev that people at cryptic were painfully aware of how unhappy people were, it was nice to at least see that the…
no if it can be reclaimed nonstop by a sub-population every new char it's not quite "the past" it's a half-measure to deal with the discontent and in a pointed way, leaves out the one population that you might want to empower -> new people
