  • 1. Nope. I don't care about keeping up anymore, PvP or PvE. I just login to play episodes, play Space Barbie, etc. 2. More final straw. But it was a very big straw. 3. No. I don't find PvP in this game fun. Even with conditions. Even blocking out most stuff, I'd still have to keep track of so many new things. Plus it's not…
  • No. It's like the historical Yamato had a set of secondary dual-purpose guns in addition to its primary battery. Which it did. It's like modern destroyers have a CIWS in addition to their anti-ship missiles. Which they do. It's like tanks have a machine gun in addition to the main turret. Which they do. It's like machine…
  • Old guard? Is that something to eat?
  • Well, not exactly a war crime, but isn't this grounds for being challenged Klingon-wise? I seem to remember commanders/officers being challenged and removed when taking clearly incompetent actions.
  • Something I always kinda wondered about ST is how, if ramming always works, they haven't designed extra-fast unmanned ships designed just to ram stuff. Heck, you could probably even send a remote/autopiloted shuttle slamming into something else at maximum impulse. And that doesn't even consider warp-speed rams. Do objects…
  • The gear difference was once manageable. It was bearable even just before DR. Grab fleet ship, fleet equips (no need for mad EC), certain doffs, an additional slot, and you could compete. Heck, if you knew enough, even RA level equips could work. Rep powercreep was held somewhat in check since you could slot only 4. Then…
  • Just one thing - why would you expect someone whose contention is that gear is the biggest differentiator to challenge you? You expect someone to (based on his expectation) to either a) just throw himself at you with inferior gear and lose, or b) spend hours and resources grinding gear to the expected level? Even if you…
  • There's also the switch between LtComm Tac and LtComm Eng. Edit: In relation to the OP, it's not so much mechanics designed to favor T5U/T6 as mechanics favoring specific build types. Sure, T5U/T6 will provide improved performance, but using the same build is likely going to yield extremely similar results. I know you…
  • So don't. But seriously, ain't our job to tell you what to play. Play if you like to, and not a moment more.
  • I was initially expecting it to go all horribly wrong with the Omega energy supercharging the Iconian or something. Either that, or the Sword of Kahless deciding to go all nanopulse-glowy style and then us having to retrieve it and study it. It does kinda make me wonder if they're going to tie this in with the old Fek'lhr…
  • But then there is a fairly big difference between a fresh level 60 player and one with all the spec points he/she can handle - a potentially game-breaking one, even with gear equalized. Just look at all the stuff in the spec trees - it's like the old reputation all over again.
  • Command boff ability: Needs of the Many Your current Shield Capacity is instantly set to zero. All teammates will, in return, gain an amount of Secondary Shielding that scales proportionately to the percentage of shields that were sacrificed. Personally, an idea of what Extend Shields should have been, but taken way too…
  • If it doesn't have to be sci-fi, World of Warships is okay at the moment for a "capital ship" feeling. Still has a few balance issues due to being in closed beta though.
  • Issues just cropped up sometime within the last 3 days.

  • Succinct and comprehensive, with a touch of humor. I like. :D
  • Erm......What? Free ships at Level 40: Cruiser: Star Cruiser and Assault Cruiser Escort: Patrol Escort and Advanced Escort Science Vessel: Deep Space Science Vessel and Reconnaissance Science Vessel
  • Uh.....turns out I've been under a rock for the last few days - so anyone care to give me a heads-up on what actually caused this threadsplosion?
  • I think they don't look too bad. Although the Romulan one looks kind of un-Romulan for some reason. Maybe it's because I can't see the green highlights of the nacelles from this angle, so it just looks a bit flat. But those Pilot maneuvers, though - it's gonna look a little funny pulling moves like that in ships of that…
  • They were probably thinking along the lines of - oh wow, people can get 100% CritH. That doesn't sound too good. So we'll nerf that. But there's gonna be a heck of a lot of whine. Oh, okay, so we'll give something to make up for it. How about CritD? - and the rest is history. Hmm.....With this, though, I do predict them…
  • It's already out. Check your nearest shipyard.
  • Ohhhhkaaayyy..... Still, in my experience, mobile game = microtransactions out the wazoo. Especially for something with collectible characters like this. Oh well, time will tell.
  • Your bridge officer said it best - "Why does every new lifeform we discover want to kill us?"
  • The old double tap was essentially every 30s at absolute minimum. (Queue up BO3, wait 15s, queue up BO2, fire - queue up BO3, wait for BO2 to cooldown) And to use it, most used it as an alpha strike from cloak, which means waiting a couple of minutes between attacks. Makes the 30s more or less irrelevant. Not to mention…
  • Mind=blown. Can they be this painfully obvious/oblivious? I don't think I've seen something that so outright monetizes a former nerf.
  • If you're talking World of Warships........blast you. I've been trying to dig up a beta code for ages and haven't got one. :mad:
  • To be fair, he is correct to some degree in that particular statement. Yes, threads like this do "stir up additional ire" - but while it is occasionally undeserved, it feels like the ire is deserved a lot of the time. Yes, this type of thread really doesn't serve the community much. But it feels like even posting in the…
  • I'm not so sure that was ragequit - it could have been plain old quit. People have other stuff to do - or they just wanted to finish the tutorial/daily and done. Meh.
  • This. Trying to reason out relative power ratings from what you see episode to episode is an impossible task. I doubt there were many attempts to maintain consistency for this sort of thing. Anyways, I personally lean towards Klingons using brute-force implementations and thus appearing more powerful in a straight-up fight…
  • Well, it is a certain day in some time zones by now...... Edit: Woops, never mind.
