  • Normally I'd jump at the chance to buy a c-store fed ship but i just can' bring myself to do it. Story wise I don't understand why any of the alliance factions would build ships from the ground up based on sphere technology and materials. Sure if it was the case the alliance found some kind of automated fleet yard, like…
  • $100 dollars doesn't sound so bad when PWE are trying to charge their European players $123.77 if they use the website payment portal or better yet $137.54 if they use the arc payment portal for the same ships :mad:
  • Amen to that. some of my favorite star trek episodes are just that, Starship Mine and Macrocosm for example. even the mission in star trek judgment rites where you had to fix the enterprise is one of my favorites. I always thought it was a missed opportunity in the Enterprise C FE that you didn't have to fight your way…
  • Its not that i don't believe you but if the devs/marking people in cryptic believe that then why did they bother creating unique bridges on the lockbox ships? why did they bother creating the origin bridge and interior? honest questions
  • The main problem with ship interiors was you had to zone into the different parts of the ship. for example duty officers were/are a great addition to ship interiors but it was a pain with zoning to get from one end to another to talk to your DOFF contacts. If cryptic added more functionality, like crafting, had better…
  • Ya especially when that grind is just to unlock other grinds to unlock an item that you need to grind to buy. Reputation at the moment isn't content, it's torture. I would suggest that each tier unlocked also unlocks all the items to purchase in your rep store. ^^ this is needs to be said in every cryptic meeting that…
  • Not really, customer suggests that your paying for something. gamer suggests you play the game. All customers are gamers but not all gamers are customers with F2P :)
  • you sir are HEX'ing me :eek:
  • Assuming you haven't already gone off into the wild green yonder you should still give STO a try. Today, and possibly the next couple of days, are not your typical day for STO. Big content updates brings a lot of players at once and this is just what happens. Server falls over, everyone has a laugh and a rant on the…
  • Let me be the first to say welcome :)
  • Holy crashing servers Batman :eek:
  • I agree, STO is becoming less and less star trek and more and more stargate. Giant gates in space, reverse engineering starships and claiming starships just "because you found/bought" them. Everything that was said in the blog great and interesting! just wish it was a real starfleet/KDF/Romulan ship at the end
  • I know its likely to be updated better but in the bridge screenshot the tunic it correct but the trousers isn't. The trouser looks to be the one from the academy set with the colour stripe running down the seam of the leg. Also the tunic and the trousers are different shades of black. If ye are going with the voyager…
  • how could you leave zachary quinto out of that list? :rolleyes: STO is building up quite a good list of VO work. Wonder if any of the other voyager characters already in STO will make an appearance in this feature episode?
  • Yay:D can he replace admiral T'nae?
  • all this has happened before and it will happen again :P
  • This tread just reminds me of how much I miss Star Trek on TV. Why isn't there more exploration in STO? the answer is simply because it doesn't sell and STO is here to make money. Forget about drawing real life comparisons to this "We need new bad guys so the game seems more interesting and don't forget to add a rough…
  • Don't forget that Zachary Quinto played the EMH in the tutorial. The next expansion needs to be "beyond 2409". Add some direction to the game's story because as it stands it a mess. the same year you graduate your promoted to vice admiral?? It brings a new definition to fast tracked career. All factions need their story…
  • Why is it not possible in star trek? I know the real life reason is that the NX was the most resent Enterpise to be designed for the prime universe so unless someone had a time machine in the 1960's you were never going to see it in TOS. It also why your not going to see the NX on the enterprise wall of fame in TMP. Ok…
  • The Excelsior-class is a tier 5 ship and it was designed 2280's. Klingons and Romulans use ships designs based on ships that have been in service before 2209. Naval games would be more based in reality than STO which is more science fiction/fantasy. I'll admit I don't know every much about world of tanks but isn't that…
  • I agree, the difference being the ship is called the U.S.S.<insert your starship name here> with the same rules that cryptic have about starship names and prefixes. I dunno about about only one ship can be the hero and all other ships in the class are just nothing. true it can apply to the TV series for the reason that…
  • I would disagree with that Very player in the STO is meant to be the game's hero, has that diminished your experience? It hasn't for me because apart from team missions I tend to ignore every other player. Same with the starships. If I'm captaining a galaxy class I don't really care who else is besides it's not like…
  • but really you'll be back to square one by the time you reach VA. You'll be looking at your NX class looking all lonely in your ship yard, like I do, with no reason to fly it even if the NX class is a T3 ship. IMO all the hero ships connie, galaxy, defiant, intrepid and NX ship be a high T5 ship. High as in one of three…
  • True :) I concede the point
  • sure does look like it to me http://cdn3.steampowered.com/v/gfx/apps/237700/ss_f6cca229f6a11f5f229703f184358a0fda30bfa5.1920x1080.jpg?t=1369163616 can't see why we can't have a fleet version T1 ship in the game, klingons have the B'rel romulans have the T'varo why can't feds have the NX?
  • Wish there was more missions like it! My thanks to the dev who made in it in their spare time
  • It's a great starter ship! Hope everyone who hasn't got one already enjoys captaining it:D
  • but isn't merging into a single faction already happening? aside from the levelling up missions what was the last faction specific mission we got at endgame? Hell Feds, Roms and KDF are the dyson sphere alliance in season 8. even if you were to take the arms race angle into account it would make sense for the feds to plug…
  • Why can't the Feds have cloaks on all ships? what is the current status of the treaty of algeron? Is D'Tan just saying "We need your help, Mr. Fedration, if the Romulan Republic is going to survive ...... but you can't have cloaking devices":rolleyes: Is the KDF going to declare double war on the federation if they start…
