  • Also having this problem. It starts, does anywhere from 1-8mb, then locks up taking days to complete IF it ever makes progress. On Demand Patching: Disabled in 2010 Make sure files aren't set to read only: Was still off from my most recent reinstall last fall Run as Admin: Absolutely no difference Disable Windows Defender…
  • Level 40 and Level 50 both fly Tier 5. In fact those of us playing the game BEFORE f2p did get a choice of a free retrofit token at level 50 which would unlock Defiant, Galaxy, or Intrepid retrofits on a single character, but it was essentially a 2nd Tier 5 ship. The tokens became a subscriber award instead shortly before…
  • In regard to lore they are actually even less likely to ally with the Klingons. Allying with either side in this game was simply a lazy means to add a new faction since they would not need to build ALL the elements of the faction. Only half the Romulan leveling experience is Romulan specific, the rest belongs to your…
  • And yet someone still paid for that zen....
  • Maybe that's what you call it, most call it putting words in someone else's mouth when you make an assumption by matching any selection of statements you like and interpret them to say something that has not been said.
  • A dev said X, you said Y+Z+X=X You have several times been caught saying this statement plus this other statement plus a third means everything is like the third? Right.... I'm the one making things up.....
  • That was my point. You and others KEEP making things up for your arguments, then turn to insults when people call you on them based on facts. You claimed there were facts in that statement, but all it ever has been is an attempt to silence the angry masses while not giving any information. I've been following STO since…
  • Sorry, but you're a fool if you take one quote from an entire passage and think taking it out of context will give you free reign over it's intended meaning. The whole point of that passage when originally written was that those FREE ships acquired through minimal grind got free upgrades and ships requiring a cash…
  • Have you? There is nothing there in regard to stats, nothing there that is concrete in any way. All that is there is a dev trying to convince us LOCKBOX ships, not C-Store or Fleet ships, are still not second class.
  • Again, as I and many others have been pointing out all weekend none of those posts have any stats listed comparing T5U-11, T5U-10, and T6 at LEVEL 60. The only comparison is T5 standard against T6 at level 50. Very specific answer and pointing at a very specific point in the leveling process. Still nothing is mentioned…
  • I've read it, several times. The info you claim is not there, nor has it ever been as NO ONE can point to it
  • We have NOTHING from any dev stating the difference in hull/shield stats at level 60. We have NOTHING from any dev stating rates of increase of hull/shield stats on either T5U or T6 from 50-60. The ONLY statement made regarding base shield/hull stats by a dev is that T6 will be comparable to T5 at level 50. The precise…
  • FINALLY! Yet another who actually sees how many points people keep tossing out are based on attempting to read between the few lines Cryptic has given us! I think to puts us to 4 out of 100+ people or so in this thread....
  • Just wanted to state that as far as canon goes Vesta is more canon than the entirety of STO as it was established in a Trek based book. That said, Vesta is the only ship in the game that falls under that category currently. FYI, Order of priority in canon goes like this: 1. On Screen 2. Trek Novels 3. Trek Games and Comics…
  • Yes, because they were introduced in BETA. At this point there has NEVER been a Tier beyond 5. Tier 1 starts with the Miranda you started with yet most forget that.
  • Not confirmed, let alone beyond 50. We were after all once told T5 and Fleet T5 were comparable so I wouldn't be surprised if there is little to no difference when things are said and done. In the end until they post actual numbers it's all just talk.
  • He was correct. In Cryptic's eyes they are different ships and the Assault Cruiser, the original and free version, is not upgradeable.
  • You proved my point for me. None of those characters you were FORCED to login and select a new class, you CHOSE to roll a new character because you didn't like a recent skill nerf. Skill nerfs are part of an MMO, yet they still never force you to change the class of an existing character. You make that decision yourself…
  • Yes you can, but not before paying $5-$10 on something you (or someone else if you used the Dil Exchange) have already paid $20-$25. Not to mention we are not being given numbers to prove they will still be competitive, only told so by a company who has lost the trust of it's fan base since PWE entered the picture. When…
  • No, they are not actually. In this game we each essentially have 2 classes and 2 avatars: one pair for ground, the other for space. To use your comparison what Cryptic is doing would be like if Blizzard made you choose a new class for each existing character when their upcoming WoW expansion launches. People need to stop…
  • That's actually not true. Tier 5 has been the top since Beta, consisting of the 6 free ship options you have at level 40. Here's the basic chart: Tier 1 - Levels 0-9 - Starter Cruiser Tier 2 - Levels 10-19 - Cruiser/Science Vessel/Escort Tier 3 - Levels 20-29 - Heavy Cruiser/Research Science Vessel/Heavy Escort Tier 4 -…
  • T5U do not receive any additional Boff seats or abilities, only T6 does.
  • You can use the skin on the T5 Fleet Cruiser based on the design though
  • Actually they don't. They only need convert the console ability each C-Store ship comes with to the active ability. That would satisfy so many others just to have a way to earn back that console slot for those who really like those console abilities that come locked to specific T5 ships. All the brainstorming and coding…
  • Everyone seems to enjoy saying that, but the only confirmed part of that statement by Cryptic is the extra console slot.
  • Actually I can tell you haven't bothered counting yourself since without a formal count I know I've seen more than 50 unique accounts within the past 25 pages with either a voice of dissent or constructive criticism.
  • Everyone the past few days loves to state that T6 ships have 10 consoles but I have yet to see a single post from a dev stating this fact of the +10% shields/hull to be a fact. The only dev posts I have seen commenting on those stats call that the difference between upgrading a 9 console T5 and a 10 console T5. Anyone have…
  • Really? Based on what I read I got the opposite, that we'd need to upgrade each of the three individually. Honestly I am hoping they didn't release all the details because they are watching the rage that has ensued for legitimate suggestions such as one tackling this exact issue with a discounted upgrade cost to do several…
  • Easy to do since Cryptic's forum staff has been busy merging them all into the announcement comment thread.
  • Because in this game a ship is not gear. Your ship is your space class and avatar. When Blizzard expands WoW do they make you choose a new class for your existing characters? Most are not concerned over replacing ship equipment and ground gear, THAT is the natural grind of MMO Expansion. We're being asked to ditch our…
