Meh, not really impressed by these. They look quite uninspiring, to be honest. Taking the show to the 31-st century, I would have thought that they'd bring us some really fresh new designs with inspiring and impressive looks, yet these look like they were picked up from a 23-rd century boneyard.
This is absolutely ridiculous. A game shouldn't be played like this and we're fast reaching a point (if we haven't reached it already) when a game literally couldn't be played like that. I sincerely hope the devs. are well aware of that fact by now and are actively working on a solution that would reduce this absolutely…
I don't mind being locked into phaser build since I run canon setups on all my faction specific ships, so I was always going to go with phasers on a Starfleet ship anyway. The locking into cannons part I can somewhat agree with, since I'd prefer to go with beams often on that setup. It is an awesome design though, and in…
This really needs to happen. The Tempest Class is by far one of my favorite (and arguably best) Starfleet designs in the game and it deserves representation in the T6 lineup. Not to mention the unique feel of the patrol escort itself in the gameplay.
From the sound of it, Hassan's night club on Nimbus III. I can't recall any other place having such environment. Unless it was players RP-ing in such manner, in which case it's probably Drozana station, though that one is far from being hidden.
I've never bought a ship in STO because of the stats, some just happened to be really good ships nevertheless. The only criteria in choosing a ship for me has always been falling in love with the visual design and/or how fun her gimmick(s) is(are) as part of the gameplay. That's one of the most positive things about STO -…
Totally not your fault - I just found out this was "FCT" as well because of your post, which is honestly, as @seaofsorrows said, pretty ridiculous. What bothers (and somewhat intrigues) me more is that I've seen a lot of fellow forum posters just jump and either spam "FCT! FCT!" or right out start tagging moderators…
While it is a minor (or even a non-issue), I agree that matching visuals for the hangar pets of starships that have them would be a really nice and most welcomed addition.
What would be the point, I don't get it? You'd end up with your run of the mill Starfleet character doing the exact same thing every other Starfleet character in the game is doing. It would essentially boil down to it being a costume option and a lockbox ship, both of which are already available in the game.
By the beard of Kahless, this previous post might as well been written by me! :o It's like someone watched what I was doing with my main, Bahn, and recorded it for posterity and to share on the forum. :D You, Sir, are a true warrior of the Klingon Empire and it has always been an honor to serve with the likes of you on the…
I absolutely agree. Have been saying this for years to no avail. The visual clutter in the game is overwhelming, especially at end game and on more detailed and prominent builds. It's actually overwhelming to a degree that it not only deteriorates the gameplay experience, but in some instances it makes the game borderline…
While the ship looks good *shrugs* (one can make a pretty cool ship combining elements from all 3) and Cryptic did a good job recreating it in the game, I'm not much of a fan of the concept that regular 'run of the mill' faction specific ships are now turning into promo box items. Unique and/or rare alien designs? Ok. Rare…
Running with a female character with the 'seductive' stance set as default seems to look OK - it's more or less the old one. However, the 'seductive' stance looks quite weird by itself and not very....seductive, IMHO. :D In addition, it doesn't thematically work with all characters, for ex. being in seductive stance is in…
Eh, life's too short for hating stuff in games. *shrugs* I tend pick my purchases based on looks alone and since I love Federation saucer shaped ships and ships that have saucers - the Somerville design really resonates with me and falls into a category that I love. I get an 'old-timer' vibe out of it, while still being an…
Woo-hoo, so it's a science ship after all! Just what the doctor ordered. ;) Don't know what everyone is on about, the ship looks legen......wait for it......dary! :D *Runs to the C-Store*
I did read the blog, that's why I said I'm really hoping it is a science ship, because based on Shon's description "She was built with the most advanced scientific instrumentation and newly declassified Mycelial technology. She’s kitted out with dozens of sensors, particle projectors and electronic countermeasures… able to…
You guys should really consider extending the times of these surprise/limited offers into mid day Monday at least, especially considering the European (or better said non-US) part of the player base. Often we seem caught by surprise by something that goes by too fast for us to react. Just something to consider for the…
By the beard of Kahless, the new female run animation when the character is set to default on 'feminine' stance is just so horrible, I'm at a lack of words to really express it. I've been reading complaints from people about it, but only now got the time to check it out on my female characters, and my God.....that just…
