You and I have different definitions of the term "instant."

Fair point, the rewards for 13 runs add up somewhat... But they are almost nothing relative to if you complete it 14 times. Not sure how you're saying 700 is average, that's 53 per run. 35 is probably an average. SO, 13 times vs 14 times: 455 marks vs 1240 (37% not awful) 6240 dilithium vs 56,720 (11% pretty bad) 0 DOffs…
-
Yeah, that's a much better solution than giving feedback and try to get a sh*tty part of a pretty good game fixed.
-
I can see your point if you're talking about PVP, but for PVE, I fail to see how it's a good thing. So the people that grind more than you are a little faster at killing the Borg? Big freakin' deal. They also have better gear, BOffs, DOffs, etc. So just make the traits be PVE only or have a separate PVP trait list. That's…
-
It's also frustrating that the old ME, which was a great way to level toons, was replaced with one only available to lvl 50 characters.
-
Just use the exchange as an account pool. I keep a hundred thousand or so on there listed at 100 per CP that I pull from whenever i need it. Don't get me wrong, an automated account pool would be nice, but when there's a perfectly functional and very easy workaround, I'd rather them spend time fixing something that's…
-
Yeah, I thought that part was clear. I want to help make the game more fun. If you like doing it, you can always keep doing it even after you've got the event finsihed and turn in the additional ones for 2k dilithium each. But this is a poorly designed mission, and a poorly designed event, and yes, I'd like them to change…
-
Whatever, that's fine too. I fail to see how it's any easier or more difficult, in either case, you're just changing a number in the code, it's not like you have to manually change everyone's project. NumRequired = 10 or NumReward = 2... neither was particularly difficult to type. Personally, I'm not playing any MORE than…

I've got 8 toons with 10 transwhatevers, and 4 more with 9. So, yeah, I know that there's still time. ...And yes, I said in the very first post that I know that I don't HAVE to do the grind. You can lead a horse to water, but can't make him drink, blah blah blah (though this thing is about to drive me to drink something…
-
Short answer: whatever the Hell I wanted to do in game, instead of what the game is force-feeding me.
-
Less than a week for those of us who preordered! Was really hoping to get the Mirror Grind finished up before then, but it's looking iffy now. Too bad it's not up now so I have something to swap to with STO down :( ...Anyone else playing ESO this Sunday and/or next week?
-
It's completely different; One way requires them to keep the ME in progress, and requires me to spend more time playing it; the other lets it die and I can get back to the regular game, which is more fun anyway. (And yes, I realize it's optional and I could skip it, but I would like to get the rewards... I just didn't want…
-
At least enough people reported it so that a Mod can't come in and make the first semi-officail post a snarky "well, it must just be your problem, otherwise other people would say something." I got DC'd as well.
-
Just got DC'd and stuck at the "connecting to login server" screen.

...Do you even know what a "straw man" is? I made an argument directly against what he was claiming, which is the EXACT OPPOSITE of a straw man. And you your points: A) The premise is in NO WAY the same. I've worked in sales, and I've done straight "here you go" contracts, and I've put together service & maintenance…
-
What an awful comparison, for multiple reasons: A) A one-time service is different than an ongoing one. PWE isn't in business to make a game and sell it, but rather to keep selling and servicing it. B) You have no idea that PWE has performed their work properly and with a high degree of workmanship. C) You have no idea…

Apparently you make a habit of missing appointments. I do not. I'm actually not aware of a single time in my life that others could not enjoy something because I missed an appointment. I don't take the bus, but, assuming I did, I would expect it to run on time, but I could forgive them for certain problems. If a meteor…
-
Your sarcasm is noted, but I would like to point out that people very often do (rightfully so, I might add) get fired for mistakes... mistakes that INCLUDE not being prepared for hardware failures. We dont' know all the details. It's premature to attack PWE and assume that this was: A) something that could've/should've…

"between afternoon and evening" :/
-
I don't disagree with any of that; those are reasonable, sound points. I just didn't think the "don't complain, it's free" was a sound point.
-
Again... how could it be upstream if Tribble is still up and running?
-
Even taking into account that your time is- by your own admission- worth nothing whatsoever, that does not make the game "free" because some people DO pay for it. That's like working at a pizza place that lets you have one for free to take home at the end of your shift, and then telling a paying customer who complains…
-
Who says this game is free?
-
I don't think Tribble ever went down. I've been playing on it for quite awhile.
-
So what does "between afternoon and evening" mean to most folks? Because even on the West Coast, that's 5:20 PM when they posted that. I'd call that "evening" already, headed into night.
-
And again, I"m still curious why it would affect ALL PWE games, but not the Tribble server of STO?
-
Posted 5 minutes ago: "We're trying to find a solution for East Coast servers. Current outlook is an update between this afternoon and evening." ...So... East Coast Servers, an update between this afternoon and evening. And... it's 8:35 PM there.
-
Also, f*** adding more days of the mirror event. Just take 1 - 2 off the event project requirement and let it end on the scheduled date.
-
So... help me understand why multiple Cryptic games are out, and yet the Tribble test server works just fine? I mean, I get that it's a different server, but I assume the other games have different servers as well? And if it's an issue outside of Cryptic, why woudln't Tribble be down?
-
Why the Hell isn't there an update in the GNN forum? Popping in and making a post in a thread like this does very, very little to convey information to the players, considering it gets buried almost immediately.
