I like the idea of ground patrols. I'm garbage at ground combat at this stage of my experience in the game and it would be great to have some quick access to ground combat for testing builds.

Hmm, still crashing and freezing. Not as often as a few weeks ago, but twice today the game froze while loading into a TFO. By the time I got the game rebooted, I had missed the TFO and was penalized for being AFK. As I've said before, my Xbox One has certainly seen better days, but I don't have these problems with other…

Thanks so much, everyone. I'm learning heaps here. It has already helped me revise the boff abilities on my two main toons. finsches123 You might be onto something. It's definitely not the case of the doff already being in use. I double checked that. But in the case of the Vulcan Holographic Entertainer, while the…

Wow, that's some professional theory-crafting! Charts and everything. :) Interesting, so it's Aux2Bat that is double slotted in the latter example (provided one has the Technicians) - at the same ranking, even. That, I wouldn't have considered. The first scenario you've highlighted, Protoneous, is a real eye-opener. I'd…

Thank you so much Protoneous and Westmetals for the added clarification. Not that I fully understand the mechanics yet, but it's at least nice to know I can add a bit of variety to my Eng boff abilities without sacrificing performance. Fortunately, I already have a few Purple Techs from farming that one cluster (B'Tran?)…
-
Protoneous and Westmetals Thank you very much for the added information. Nice to have the issue of Active Ground Doffs settled. That issue was really troubling when trying to experiment with Away Team builds. LOL I'm still not sure about EP2W. My main character currently has EP2W II, EP2W III, and EP2 Shields all slotted,…
-
Thunderfoot Thank you so much for both the warm welcome and the helpful advice. It's nice to know that the Gorn experience isn't mine alone. And those Phoenix Packs sound great, if like you said, it reduces the RNG of other upgrading options. As for Emergency Power to Weapons: is it okay to only slot it once, or is it…
-
Orangenee Yeah, I figured it's most likely on my end. Like I said, my Xbox has seen better days. I'm definitely no tech expert, so I likely messed something up LOL. When you refer to instant on and reset, if I may clarify - I quit the game when I'm done playing for the day. Then start it up again the next day. I've also…

Does anyone know what might cause similar issues on Xbox consoles? My game can take time loading in and struggles simply navigating the character selection screen. I usually only get an hour of playing in the game before it starts freezing and then crashes. I'm playing on an Xbox One that is a few years old and has seen…
-
I hear you. It was definitely a season of ups and downs. And as for Season 1 of TNG... lol. Yeah, I guess if I'm going to be one of those old curmudgeons complaining that the new stuff isn't of the quality of stuff in my day... well, I better willing to concede a lot of criticisms that DISC and PIC fans might hurl at TNG…
-
smokebailey Agreed, I liked Season 2 of TNG as well. Every season had its ups and downs, and sure 2 had a few stinkers, but hey, it also gave us "Q Who", "Elementary, Dear Data", "Measure of a Man", all gems. Plus, I really liked Pulaski. It was nice to have a strong, admirable character who could still butt heads a bit…
-
midevilchaos Oh, you're absolutely right. It's not like I haven't dropped my share of F bombs just trying to learn how to play this game :D So perhaps I'm being nitpicky. But one of the things I loved about old Trek was the slightly elevated language, a speech from Picard or Bashir that could be eloquent. It's in the same…
-
I'll echo what everyone else has said. Saw about half of the first season of Discovery and it didn't feel like Trek. Felt like someone borrowed the Trek name for brand name recognition, threw in some token Trekisms and then borrowed from whatever they thought might be trendy. Let's throw in dark and gritty from Terminator.…
-
I love this idea, TheoryFive. I'm strangely new to this venerable game. Being fresh, one particularly savior some immersion in Trek nostalgia. As FleetCaptain5 said, I would love to be able to use my favorite, iconic Trek species without worrying that I'm sabotaging my ability to overcome content in the game. Plus, one…
-
Not sure if this has been mentioned, but similarly, I seem to have a curious feature with only with a new ship I purchased (Gagarin). Once I enter transwarp speeds, I'm unable to disengage until it naturally expires. And I'm pretty sure it's lasting far longer than my build has any right to boast. I'm not saying that this…
-
OMG, is that a Robotech emblem for your icon? That's is so amazingly vintage! I salute you. Loved that show when I was a kid. :)
-
Orangenee Glad to hear I'm not the only person playing on console. Yeah, the abilities that can't be set to proc (and can't all be quick slotted), are the learning curve. And you're not kidding about FAW drawing aggro! LOL I learned that during the Borg event when every sphere bypassed my group to gun me down. As for gear,…
-
Wow, thanks so much for all the wonderful tips and insights. I've tried doing my due diligence of Googling, but when many sites have information that's five years old, it can be hard to gauge whether or not it's obsolete. Westmetals I figured it would not stack, but oh well lol. I was also a bit concerned that only…
-
Oranenee That's an awesome tip! Would be great to know if I don't haveto fixate about hitting red-blue-yellow powers in the correct order for a proc lol Protoneous Wow, that's a lot to consider, thank you! You've addressed and approached a few issues I've been wondering about. With Ep2W, I've read inconsistent information…
-
Orangenee That pro tip is awesome news, if I don't have to fixate about hitting red-blue-yellow powers in a particular order. :) Protoneous Wow, that's a lot of information for me to unpack! Thank you for all the insights. You've brought up a few topics I've been curious about. With Ep2W you mentioned ordinarily having it…
-
Yeah, I could definitely tell that the bonus BoP you win in the Klingon Recruitment rewards wasn't going to win a popularity contest, but in a way that's what I was glad about. If I was having fun with it without getting too frustrated, then I figured it's a safe wager I'd enjoy a Pilot Warbird or Pilot Raptor (those…
-
LOL a Risian luxury liner. I'm tempted to track it down just for the novelty. Though not sure how I'd get it if it's from a past Event. Is it in the Lobi store? Don't think I want to gamble for ships, would prefer sticking to the C Store. I'm testing the playstyle with theT6 Bird of Prey my Klingon recruit got. Was worried…
-
Holy TRIBBLE: I just read the details on the consoles that come with the Pilot Warbirds. The bonuses you get if all three in the set are equipped on a single ship is insane. Seems like you're undermining a Pilot ship without those bonuses. Ugh, but to buy a bundle of three similar ships just to use only one of them...
-
Thanks for the links, guys. LOL I've certainly been visiting that site a lot for a crash course. Orangenee Wow, that ship just keeps looking better. If it wasn't for the fact that the Gagarin is on sale right now... even still. Great thing about the Titan, it seems, is that I can practice Sci builds, and if I hit a wall, I…
-
Hey guys, thank you for the helpful links. I've definitely been spending my share of time on that site trying to do a crash course LOL. Orangenee - Yeah, dang, that looks like such an awesome ship that you and Annemarie tipped me off to. And it's so versatile. If the Gagarin wasn't on sale right now... even still. Great to…
-
Yeah, it's definitely an impressive looking - and nice looking - ship that's on my radar now. I noticed that Tactical Mode and Sci Mode option. I don't have a ship yet with such a feature. I take it that these modes are not options you can toggle between in the middle of battle. Are they options you configure in the ship…
-
Thanks for the added suggestions. I always loved the style of the Nova, so it's good to hear about a canon ship served well. I just checked out the Mat'Ha, and yeah, that seems like a fun, fast, aggressive ship. Since I already have the Battle Cruiser bundle, I'm curious about trying other specialized Boffs besides…
-
Yes, I have the Battle Cruisers and love the Morrigu in particular. I made two characters to during the Recruit event. Even if one collects dust for a bit while I focus on the other, at least they'll both eventually have those advantages. I unlocked the ship and died very quickly LOL, but I'm looking forward to giving it…
-
Thanks for all the added insight, Westmetals. Really helpful since I know the more seasoned players have an analytical grasp at selecting ships for traits that can be used elsewhere; but I'm at a stage where it would be disappointing to get one of my first ships just for that reason. So great to hear from both you and…
-
Thanks for the follow-up and tips, Orangenee. And yes, I took what you meant regarding general levels of T6 ships. So no worries, I promise not to look for someone to blame if I pick Ship A instead of Ship B lol. Mostly, my concern is inadvertently getting a ship that only highly skilled players can make work. Will glass…
