Enlighten me. I mentioned its inferiority because it is plainly inferior, especially as an Escort. But where do I say it is superior, and thus backstep my own logic? I would have to say that reading certainly is not your strong point. Imo, there are plenty of ships superior to the Chimera. However a Fleet version may very…

This! I do laugh at people who can consider the current Chimera to be 'omg it is thu best escortz' as it simply isn't. RA Patrol escort is more effective, minus the console abilities. And theres plenty of 9 console store ships which are also superior. Its stats are shoddy, it loses a console slot for the Tactical mode,…

Sorry to bump an old-ish thread, but it had the answer I was looking for. Sadly it wasn't what I wanted to here :| Bollocks. I really do wish that was made clear before I dismissed my 600day vet ship. Seeing as you can reclaim the 400 and 1,000 day ships, I assumed you could also reclaim the 600 day ship... Communication…

If you want to see major patching failure, take a look at Blacklight Retribution. Another of PWE's current projects, it suffered massive issues in a patch recently. Not only did it take hours (in some case days) to actually download, it rendered the game unplayable for most people. Connecting from Europe had lower latency…

Those Andorians, always being troublesome.

Patched up in about three minutes. Dont know why people are having trouble with it, seemed pretty easy to me. And 17:20 if your lucky :P

Not just on carrier pets. I cant believe the number of times my saucer section has seemingly vanished. No idea how much damage it has been taking during combat, and cant even see the damn thing floating adrift as I carry on slaughtering borg. Have to actually go looking for it to see if its has been destroyed because the…

You'd think it would be obvious to use phasers on the Dread, but so many people dont. And at what point did I say "Use this setup in PVP!!!!!!" It'll never work in PVP, so i said its my PVE setup. Its people like you who are a problem in this community. You have obviously misread or misinterpreted parts of my post; yet you…

Personally, I wouldn't bother with the Ody pack and regret buying it. You may be down one console in the Dread if you take the Jumper, but you are down three in the Ody. If you want to take a tactical approach, you need saucer sep (Cheveron Separation) and if you are going for dps you want the Aquarius escort. If you have…

The Dreadnought is a great ship. Dont let the naysayers put you off just because they cant use it effectively. I've seen it decimate targets in both PVE and PVP, and use it myself to great effect in PVE. To get the most out of the Spinal Phaser Lance, stick to phaser weapons. Lot of people go with Antiproton beams and…

I agree it would be alot easier for everyone (even those people answering the support tickets ;) )if they added a record of stipend payouts, and indeed all, zen payouts to your account. However, unless you are a Lifer now for 660 days, you wont have to try to remember that single payment 2 years ago. For gold, your payment…
-
:cool: YEEEEAAAAHHHH!!!!!
-
One aspect people don't seem to realize, is the payout isn't on the same day for everyone. Its not like 1st of the month, every gets their stipend. Some people may have their on the first or last day of the month (for example) and make a smartarse announcement in Zone chat; other players then check theirs to find its not…

I love the Kar'Fi carrier (and the Vo'Quv) but really dislike the Skul Fighters. They are great little bugger for causing damage, but keep getting themselves killed. Its no fun when you send all of your little devils to attack a new target, just to realize you only have about 3 left alive because the rest crashed into the…
-
Even though I intend not to purchase anymore Fed vessels until they release a real carrier (4 hangar bays and virtually no weapons) acquiring the Thunderchild and Armitage is very tempting now, especially while they are both reduced by 20% :eek:
-
For mine, I opted for the torpedo boat offensive. Cheap setup to see if I enjoy the fully kinetic combat style. All photons (quick reload) with mines and a torp at the back. Dispersal Pattern Beta III, then the usual High Yield and Tac Team skills. Science and Engineer boff's are setup for self repair and shield restore…

Theres currently 4 uniform giveaways running atm to promote Season 7. TOS Tunic TOS Medical Uniform TOS Dress Uniform Enterprise Era Uniform All available from various MMO websites, using the usual register, activate, receive key routine. I have all four on my account atm. Cant wear them all at once, but thats still alot…

Lol. Leave K Stew alone, she's had a hard time already what with dating too many guys, living the Hollywood lifestyle and 'staring' in blockbuster films.... (not even I can keep a straight face for that last one one lol) Back on topic though, this lady in the promo pic isn't a Romulan at all. Look at the Federation uniform…
-
I agree. The Federation shipyard is a sad state of affairs. So many ships, too many even. I don't intend to buy another Fed ship until they release a real carrier, one with like 3 turning speed, 2 weapons fore and aft and 4 hangar bays. However, I did purchase this Steamrunner pack. The VA retrofit is terrible. Going for a…
-
No, you will start any new Fed characters at level 0. Klingon gameplay starts at Commander (no idea why) and is unlocked when your first character (Fed) reaches level 24 iirc. Fleet creds are bound to that character, as is dilithium and any Bound to Character items. If you are a premium member, you have access to the an…

I thoroughly enjoy the Neblua, and use it on all of my Commander rank characters during the grind to VA. The Console layout is suited for its role as a Science vessel, and its Boff layout is superb. One tac console limits its dps of course, but come on, Gravity well ftw! My only quarm with it is the sensor array on the…

It wasn't all photoshop by a player which led to the speculation. It was information passed onto the community by someone at PWE. Also, the Spinal Phaser Lance weapon ingame states two firing modes, the second for saucer sep. Its not all random speculation based on a photoshop. And CAPSLOCK MAKES YOU LOOK DUMB!!!1 The…

I have often through the current 'carriers' ingame are lacking. Two hanger bays is far too limited and seems less of a carrier and more of a cruiser with a few support craft. Personally, I'd like to see something like this running around with three fore and aft weapons, and three hanger bays, maybe even four. They should…

Not twenty mins ago I reinstalled Windows and tried to run STO; and was greeted by this Unable to Authenticate error messege. I'm very glad its a server issue and not my end lol
-
Thanks for the info, where did you find that? Had a look earlier while i was in work but couldn't find a definite answer. 9 out of every 10 posts are people complaining about their Veteran Rewards are no longer Veteran lol
-
I agree that the cloak should be a ship ability akin to the Lance and similar to Klingon cloaks. But even then, I wont use it often if at all. Its not a combat cloak like the Klingons have, or like the Dreadnought used in "All Good Things" and as such its effectiveness will always be questionable. Saucer separation is a…

Those two little words just made my day after a long shift in work lol Hats off to you sir.

Indeed. The Galaxy has a more than adequate shield strength considering the size of the vessel, and its ability to tank (obv because its a Cruiser) really is unmatched by any Escort. However, I would like to see the slower cruisers, like the Galaxy, receive a slightly higher shield modifier to compensate its woeful base…
-
Hhmm... I run 4x RCS consoles on my Galaxy Dread, along with DC's & turrets. It has an acceptable turn rate for PVE. But any decent PVP player will have no trouble exploiting its still nominal turning speed.

Is it wrong that I read this post to the voice of Tuvok? An attempt to portray eloquence without any understanding of the matter at hand. And you certainly have no idea of the Dreadnoughts potential this thread highlights. Your arrogance is typical of someone who cannot fathom the superiority of others, those who invest…
