  • Science ships are, in-universe, kind of the Federation's hat. The Romulans and Klingons deliberately have few options like that.
  • So I'm reviewing these a little more. * Lock Trajectory seems to be a situational skill - that is, I find I'm not using it every time I get into a fight. Especially against quicker enemies, using it is fairly pointless. Against Vaadwuar, with their tric mines and dodgy little attack ships and AOE artillery, it's almost…
  • All. The. Time. Tray lag especially. Also framerate chug on certain space maps.
  • The point is that normal is not a training ground for elite because players ACTUALLY CAN just DPS through it on Normal even with bad gear. You literally will not learn the 10% Rule on Normal because you don't need it. Normal is a completely different experience. That's a fact.
  • The thing is, I know how to do them on Normal, and for some of them, Advanced is not the same. On Normal, players often just ignore the optional. On Advanced, you can't. For ex, on ISN, it's easy to just sail around and vape the nodes one by one and then bomb the transformers without ever having to grav well the spheres.…
  • Most of the Delta Quadrant patrols are downright unplayable for me now. They weren't like this before Season 10. I'm literally having to set my graphics to the lowest setting to play these space maps, when prior I was playing them on max settings with no FPS issues at all.
  • See the part where I don't have my pilot boffs lined up yet. I am, in fact, aware Tokyo Drif- I mean, Lock Trajectory exists.
  • I bought the science pilot ship for my fed. I respeced myself to carry Gravity Well as my science LCDR power. I don't have a pilot boff yet, but at the moment my big strategy is to snare all my foes up with GWI, then pound on them with my cannons and let warp core breaches do the rest. So far, here's how it's gone for me:…
  • Don't suppose these bad boys are compatible with Defiant parts.
  • ...Because cruisers... have... Engineering commanders.
  • ...I actually didn't say any of that. I said you don't speak for me and I like the new sector space. Are... are you alright? You're... quoting... a short-lived forum thread... as... legitimate research material...? Dude, it's fine for you to have an opinion. But when you throw a tantrum and start screaming about how you…
  • Well, I'm glad you're here to speak for most Trek fans. I don't know what I'd do without you telling everyone else what they think. I like the new sector space.
  • Since Season 10, the framerate on certain maps has been absurd. Sakari System Patrol and Ocampan Freighter are, in particular, unplayable.
  • Same problem here, trying the 234 patrol on a Fed escort. I find if I get to point-blank and sit just inside the docking ring facing the top node, I can sometimes get a shot in, but any other angle, nothing.
  • I've had more than a few misfires lately. The lag has just been disgusting.
  • I can't believe this thread keeps getting bumped. You guys have dozens of Foundry doors on the existing map. Maybe more than a hundred. Is there really enough of a shortage that we have to move Planet Nyancat 80 light-years from where it should be? Just add a scratching post next to R'raak at Spacedock and call it a day.
  • If Cardassians do appear, I suspect it'll be in a similar setting to the Romulan Republic. Possibly more Fed-leaning, since the Cardassians are fairly explicitly getting cozy with the Feds these days.
  • I wouldn't object to a litter box being added in the corner of Quinn's office.
  • I have to keep making it because every time I do, another wave of posts pops up totally ignoring what the devs actually said. You guys are free to lobby all you want. But so long as you do, I'm going to politely provide the opposing view.
  • 18 pages, Ashki. 18 pages of lobbying. I'm not going to get into this silly game of parsing every word in every sentence because that's just a tactic designed to start fights. The point is: Cait shouldn't be added until the game expands to where it actually is.
  • 18 pages of nonstop lobbying will do that.
  • [ SKIP ] [ HAIL ] ...Caitians still have a homeworld. It's just not on the map. When the game expands four sector blocks south, that would seem to be an appropriate time to add Cait. If you want to slap it somewhere arbitrary, what else should we slap somewhere arbitrary? Because I want the Sheliak homeworld in the Vulcan…
  • I don't particularly like Trek's handling of evolution vs. religion. That said, I don't feel the need to harp on it unless I'm prodded. Which I have been several times in this thread.
  • Nah, you're trying to sneak out and nitpick and then retreat back to your moral high ground. But it's cool, I'm down with it.
  • And yet you still see fit to engage me on it. :rolleyes: It basically speaks in riddles anyway, so who knows how much of what it says is intended to be taken literally. I've always assumed the city was built around it, like Mecca around the shrine.
  • If we look at science, there was the potential for life before the Preservers, but it probably never made it into space. The first stars in the universe were Population III stars, and they were extremely deficient in metal, except maybe a bit of lithium. Metal seems to be the key building block for planet formation, so…
  • I take it you've never seen God depicted in pop culture. He's almost always depicted as an old man in a white robe. Except maybe in South Park, I guess. But again, you're getting caught up on what colour the icing on the cake is. Genesis: A mysterious being - usually depicted in a white robe - appears at the dawn of the…
  • Actually I've made the same point consistently throughout this argument. The one trying to pull a gotcha based on one word in my argument is you, I'm sorry to say. If you don't see the parallels between the Book of Genesis and a story where a mystical white-robed figure starts out alone in the universe and creates humanity…
  • Confirmed for not knowing what subtext is. You're getting bogged down in small details. What you're basically saying is that if you have two chocolate cakes, one with pink icing and one with yellow icing, they can't both be chocolate cakes because one's a different colour.
  • I actually said the subtext is blatant. It's still subtext. Try again, Debate Team Champion. PROTIP: It's not that the goalposts are moving. You're just at the opposite end of the field.
