  • Meanwhile I'm only feeling my initial concerns, the more that I read these forums, are becoming reality. I have not logged into this game for like 2 months now because I legitimately was mortified to have to see how Zone chat was going to be to this, and I'm debating canceling my patch now and turning tail and run because…
  • You say short-shafted. I'm surprised it took them this long to slow development on new Rom ships. Hell for that matter I'm shocked we have as many KDF ships as we have. Reason why is the culture-we see the Federation pumping out new ships like Chevy does new models of Corvettes. Meanwhile, we have the KDF still using ship…
  • *sniffs the air* Hm. Launching a new expansion this fall that will air along a currently airing series, an idea that TOTALLY worked well before (see Defiance) revolving around a divisive series for fans of an IP, timed PERFECTLY with the exit of the executive producer at a time where solidarity and stability internally are…
  • And if this is not true, prove it please, because it doesn't look like it is here from my perspective when you take down a post that you THINK was flaming or trolling. I was quite serious. As a customer who's paid for all the T5 ships and paid to T5-U a few, I kinda feel slightly shafted by this move. I'm sure I'm not…

  • Thanks for helping me make up my mind. I was by no means flaming or trolling, I was expressing my thoughts on this, no one was being disrespected and I kept it quite civil. If this is the kind of moderation that this game has now, I think that my time now is best spent outside of STO. But that being said, I appreciate your…

  • Yes and no. The Vesta is 100% from the Destiny trilogy for sure. however, the Luna-class is not fully from the novels. Only the design is. In Nemesis, Riker stated that he would be taking command of the USS Titan and that it was a Luna-class, but we never saw her as it was not required to drive the direction of the story.…
  • The fact that you have an NX refit and made it look this good is reason enough for me to change the review on Steam for STO from a negative to a positive. Though it WAS rumored to be seen in S5 of ENT, that season never happened, and after seeing the model on YouTube via IrishTrekkie's video (that video being the one where…
  • Um, not really. They apparently forgot the Tzenkethi-Federation War WHEN THEY SAID AN ENEMY THAT WE LEARN ABOUT. Designwise, though, yeah, on that I agree. Oh, and devs, don't take that as an insult, but a reminder. The Federation DOES know a thing or two on the Tzenkethi from an off-screen war that was mentioned in…
  • Been out of commission for a while, computer died. But yes, that was what I was saying, but I was implying for TOS and Fed-I actually forgot about the other two factions. But I also did talk to Thomas the Cat on Facebook about this and alas, there likely will NOT be any new Veteran rewards anytime soon as a part of this…
  • I was thinking of going Team Echo, but then I took a closer look and saw that that ship essentially is a reskinned Son'a Battleship. I would rather that be kept for the Son'a, so it's Team Alpha for me! And hell to the no for Charlie. That ship makes no sense designwise from what we've seen established in Trek. A warp…
  • And in regards to them shuttering PC...there still is too big of a playerbase on PC. I don't see them doing that at all right now. In fact, I see them sooner shuttering Champions and if that doesn't work, both the XBOX and PC versions of Neverwinter before they even TOUCH anything that is even CLOSELY related to STO,…
  • You know, the big kicker here as far as crossplay is considered is NOT Microsoft, but Sony. You know what I see happening? XBOX and PC play together on a cross-play server, with PS sitting in the corner. And someone pulled out DC Universe Online, a game I play. XBOX has it's own server, and PC and PS were already…
  • Ah, while true, the test server for STO still is considered a seperate server. And they have a tool that will allow you to copy over a character from Holodeck to Tribble. So in all honesty, while it's likely that the PC and console servers will not be linked in a cross-play setting...I don't see them forcing those on…
  • I wouldn't be so sure, the devs HAVE been a lot more receptive to the playerbase as of late, and have been basically giving us things to improve the quality of the game in a satisfactory manner. While I don't expect each mission to hand you a new level after you hit lvl 30 on, I do expect this to be easier, considering how…
  • Update: This happened after relaunching. Before, he was able to get in, but the game was freezing on him, he was getting a server not responding for about 20 seconds, then it restored contact with the server to have everyone nearby twitch onscreen and then the game froze again.
  • It REALLY spikes when I change a setting, and lags tremendously when I hit anything too. Right now...it's virtually unplayable, and didn't have too big a problem last night. This is really bad.
  • Oops...posted on the wrong discussion. Disregard my message.
  • It REALLY spike swhen I change a setting, and lags tremendously when I hit anything too. Right now...it's virtually unplayable, and didn't have too big a problem last night. This is really bad.
  • A force verify DOES seem to fix this problem.
  • Agreed, they should at the VERY least have a section to go to chat with a support agent and get answers. You mentioned drivers, though. What I suggested was a Windows Update. Did you try that? That was my problem with another issue, and it seems to have resolved my crashing issue. That is, unless the game freezes like it…
  • Well, then I don't know what it is. I HAVE, however, had a big problem with the game actually crashing the moment I try to do anything of note in the game, and a major problem with chatting in sector space where the game seems to ignore the fact that I'm trying to chat and pop up every window associated to the keys that…
  • You CAN re-download the game through Steam, as it is available on there...but be warned that while this is the simpler, easier option to play it through Steam, that you also might also have to repatch the complete game. Additionally...I HAVE found a standalone version of the launcher on here. If you'd like, I could link…
  • Agreed, considering I can run it at about the same level-with no particle physics though, but I turn that off anyway as it's annoying to see all of that stuff to me-on my Dell Inspiron laptop with these specs: Core i5 4200U, 1.6GHz, which can throttle up to 2.3GHz Windows 10 8GB RAM 1TB HD Intel HD Integrated Graphics 4400…
  • No lag here. Not trying to be counter productive, but quite the opposite. Could it be that something didn't patch right or you have a weak Internet connection? I would try a force-verify and checking your connection status. Just trying to help you all find a possible solution, as the game for me is buttery smooth. I COULD…
  • Yes, but 8 didn't give MS the ability to brick your computer, now, did it? Let me ask you a question. Why do you think Windows 10 is CONSTANTLY phoning back to Microsoft, whether you tell it to or not? I will tell you why. The NSA.
  • Take it from one dumb enough to have gotten one duing the Summer Event-it's totally not worth it. Not til STO works properly anyways.
  • You want THAT running the servers? I'm gonna upgrade to 8 as soon as I can! Yes. I'm serious. I find Windows 8 BETTER than the junk that is Windows 10. Besides, Windows 10 is basically an updated version of Windows NT. All NT is is the framework for the current verisons of Windows.
