Not sure if this is intended as a nerf. Description says the base magnitude was increased dramatically, so we'll have to see how it interacts with the CD reductions. They also said they they were going to improve tachyon beam in this interview.

Making extra dil for free is fairly simple. Use multiple characters, turn in contraband. Level them to 50 during a bonus XP weekend and farm battlezones, turning in the marks, injectors, and implants. Don't spend dil on your alts, unless you have extra. You can get contraband from the exchange, or from DOFF missions (KDF…

You can work a part time job for 3 months instead of grinding Argala. a = approximate number of argala runs to reach one point = 20 b = approximate time per run (minutes) = 10 c = time per point = b * a = 200 d = number of points to fill after lvl 60 = (90 - 10) = 80 total time to completion = c * d = 16,000 minutes =…

Makes no sense to buy a ship if you're not playing. Besides, they'll be obsolete in 4 months just like the Intel ships.

You get 1,000 extra dilithium refinement every two days, and you get it after completing a 48 hour long DOFF mission that rewards no CXP. You will probably still need to buy the EC cap removal once your subscription ends too. Don't sell anything expensive unless you are sure the cap is removed, or you will lose your EC.

The sense of frustration from opening multiple boxes and not getting the grand prize is similar to gambling. I've opened up well over 200 boxes before without getting a ship. Honestly, the game would be better without them, but they are literally all over the F2P gaming industry like a plague. Best thing to do with boxes…

Sounds like a better system. Cryptic can charge as much dilithium as they want, sounds way better than fiddling around with the boff trainer and exchange all the time.

Hello Everyone, I wanted to come here and encourage you all by what I have achieved with STO since quitting real life. 1. Gained 20 lbs, going to hit 200 soon! 2. Won a new Dreadnought with $500 of R&D packs, (Almost enough money left to buy that used car I've been needing!). :rolleyes: 3. Upgraded my equipment to gold…

Well, you're not missing much in the way of rewards (for the Borg STFs). I heard them say they hate ISA anyway, because everyone plays it. So, yes, they actually admitted they are out there to ruin the good maps and force you to play stuff you don't want to because of some unwritten rule that every queue has to be played…
-
Everytime I join an STF, I have to make sure the game doesn't pop out my fleet armor console or swap my Res B shield for Res A. Not only that, it keeps moving my weapons batteries out of my power tray and rearranging items in my inventory. So yes, clearly something is wrong with this picture.
-
I blame Cryptic for taking the easy route with P2W gamble boxes. If they were like other game designers, they would be making everything you pay real money for a sidegrade. But no, they don't want to make a balanced game. How hard is it to make money with a Trek game? It should be like printing money, you shouldn't have to…

I don't care if people write in Italian, or Dutch, or Klingon, but hey, it's the forum rules. Universal translators don't exist yet.

I've added it to the list of impossible optionals, which includes not entering an acid pool, staying out of a fluidic bubble, and keeping the crawlers from attaching themselves to a player.

People who are disappointed will usually keep playing because of the sunk cost fallacy. If people spend a lot of time levelling a character, they are much less likely to admit to themselves later the MMO isn't as fun as they thought, because it would be an admission of loss. Same thing holds true for gambling. People keep…

I have nearly 2 months worth of unrefined dilithium on my main. Would be nice to have it all refined, that's about 2500 zen worth right there. Plus, i need to get my reputation gear that I earned with rep marks and ancient power cells.

I believe the OP is making an assertion that watching the reactions on the forums is more entertaining than the game itself, and is hoping to find responses that agree with him. Or he could merely be using sarcasm to mask his disappointment with the current state of the game. Either way, he is sure to get a reaction from…

I think it would be nice to have sector space travel from the bridge. I know, it's probably a common request, but I think I would be more into buying one if they did that.
-
A more descriptive term would be "Free-to-Play (Kinda)" or "(Somewhat) Free-to-Play," or even "Free-to-Spend."

Kobali prime adventure zone: no APCs Borg disconnected: too difficult Battle of Korfez: bugged, somewhat difficult Bug hunt: the only option :(
-
I almost quit when they came out with the starbase grind. Honestly, I don't even care about getting the items as much as it bothers my OCD having something unleveled.
-
if they don't change this crafting stuff, I might actually quit the game for good. Logging in and clicking buttons every day for years is not fun.
-
vape and a2b only, i use a2d or rsp i never use them because i can't survive without damage control and zemok/ulani. my vape builds that used them were unreliable. it's very powerful with the doff, better than rsp free damage when people shoot at you is fun, but i think it's mostly suited for ships that can't get out of…
