  • Ah, that explains it then. Thanks
  • PWE and Cryptic should have just been honest. Maybe I missed it, but nothing I've read since the announcement of the consoles gave indication that PC gamers would lose their stuff. All the "look at our great lighting" and other blogs made is sound like the PC stuff and consoles would intertwine. I don't care about having…
  • Is there a way to zoom in the view on the character or ship on the PS4 or is it static? My character/ship is so far away.
  • Does the console version have the LTS benefits like the PC version? Also, if you purchased items in the zen store, such as ships that are unlocked. Are they unlocked in the zen store on the consoles? I know the characters aren't crossing over, but since it is all Arc/PW I would think items you purchased in the zen store…
  • Aren't all the special ships available in the in the Event reputation store? I have claimed them on most of my Delta recruits so I have the ability to use them(if I choose to) later on.
  • Whining from F2P players commences in 3.......2.......
  • Speaking strictly for myself, I have left and do leave advanced ques. However, I only do so when at least one person has already bailed(if not 2) and if, after that one or two people left, we are just getting our butts handed to us and we all are just dying. The reason is, I've found I don't get a leaver penalty if I bail…
  • No, the upgrade system is not broken. You are upgrading gear to EPIC. Do you think Cryptic is just going to let you get the best gear for peanuts? No. As the poster you are questioning said, it is for you dragon chasers who have nothing better to spend resources on or need something to brag about. Do you really expect to…
  • I also do it for the marks. I better be careful though, I may be "exploiting" something because I do 5 Nequencia tradings in row to finish the patrol rather than going system to system. :rolleyes:
  • I didn't buy the pack because of the way the ships look and because there isn't enough in there to warrant me paying that money for pixels. That being said, I'm still not impressed with the ships I've seen in game with the exception of the little escort, phantom I think? I've seen a few of them around they are starting to…
  • They may not stay, but they will probably have bought some over-priced shiny from the store while they were here. So it's a win. PWE got their money. PT Barnum said it best: "There's a sucker born every minute".
  • Eh, they aren't going to give you any detailed explanation. To do so, they would have to admit they screwed up. Not going to happen. The real raunchy thing they did though was in order to "punish" those power leveling, they turned off all the maps so that you can even do the daily patrol to get marks. So they punished the…
  • But they aren't "obsolete". They just aren't the newest. Is the USS Nimitz "obsolete" compared to the USS George HW Bush? No, it is just older and doesn't have the "bells and whistles". First, you can play the new story content with them just fine. Now if you do PVP or want to do the "elite" queues, then you MAY need to…
  • Eh, I played the new story content on Tribble, did fine with a T5. Not going to worry about "outdated" ships. I may upgrade a couple of a my favorites on my main toons to T5U, and if a T6 ship comes to the Z-store that peak my interest I'll probably dil to zen purchase it. But as of now, I'm not worried about my "obsolete"…
  • ^^^This^^^^. I too am a casual player. I will probably upgrade the ship my toon uses the most to a T5-U at some point, but have no plans to purchase any T6. I was on tribble last night during the holodeck downtime and was fine playing the regular story content on mk XII gear and a t5 akirac with no problems. You won't need…
  • I found that doing the trading mission in the Nequencia system is pretty easy and quick. I found that there are basically three trading combinations. Once you know the pattern of trading you can zip right through it. It gives you 20% so you just need to do it 5 times. It doesn't take any longer than 15 to 20 minutes now…
  • I also agree with the OP. I have played this game since 2010 and it has come a long way. I enjoy it. Sure I think some things could be improved, but I really enjoy this game. There are also things that to me are miss, not because they are poorly done, but because it's not my cup of tea. Like the Dyson zone. I could live…
  • I'm probably not much help because I don't PVP or anything. I kind of just run my ships with what strikes my fancy. Sometimes I run complete sets other times I mix and match. As far as reputation, I've completed the Borg, and Romulan, I'm like 95% done with Nukara, and probably like 75% percent done with the Dyson and…
  • Maybe I missed something somewhere along the way, but I don't remember it being said that the lockbox ships were supposed to be the "best of the best". I only remember that they were supposed to be on par with and maybe have a few perks(Boff layouts, special weapons/consoles) than regular T5 ships. I was under the the…
  • In the tailor you can choose an armor option for your captain or boffs. Like most have said more customizable. And, as it has always been, you can set various outfits for your captain and just toggle between them to show your armor or regular uniform/outfit, by right clicking your captain's picture. I wish they had done…
  • I bought my LTS a long time ago and it paid for itself in spades. I use the 500 zen for any extra services I need on top of LTS already gives you. It does rollover, so if you wanted that massive pack of science destroyers you could save up 10,000 from your monthly stipend. I never spend real money this game after my LTS…
  • The Enterprise B was a brand new starship. She was not another ship prior. She was just a different hull design/modification on the basic Excelsior space frame. She was freshly christened, not re-christened and as Generations showed us, incomplete. Had it been another ship previously it would have had all it's gear. Also…
  • I think fanbase opinions matter to CBS/Paramount, but I don't think JJ really cared about the fanbase opinions. I think in order to get the permissions to do a Star Trek film he had to stick with the basic premise of the license. Plus it had been how many years since we had Kirk, Spock and McCoy movie? 20 plus years? Also…
  • I'm still not a fan of the new "JJ Prise" starship itself. I hate the nacelle design. Just not aesthetically pleasing to me. I do like the rapid fire phasers though(like cannons in this game). So it's like offsetting penalties in the NFL to me. As for the movies, I agree that fans get butthurt over a lot of nothing. Not to…
  • No, that is why "most" Trekkies, Trekkers, or whatever you want to call yourselves "hate it". Considering both films pulled down over a half a billion dollars worldwide, I wouldn't say "most people" hate it. In fact it appears a great many people liked the films. And if they aren't "real" Star Trek fans then all the better…
  • Ahh, I went gold for a few months then LTS in 2011. So that makes sense. I thought the OP was talking about the Boffs though.
  • The playable Liberated Borg is exclusive to lifetime and always has been. Since you mentioned pre-order, I'll assume you were referring to the Lib Borg bridge officers. So the answer to your question, without any insults or sarcasm, is no, they aren't exclusive, you can now purchase the Boffs in the C-store. Unfortunately,…
  • I have both the Scimitar and the Vesta 3 packs. I really like the Vesta, even for my Tac toons.
  • I'm thinking someone was simply speculating as to what species they were because of the tails. If you look at the one to Kirks left, she doesn't have cat-like ears. They appear more rounded like human ears, but integrated with her head(for lack of a better term). They are probably just some other Federation member species…
