I am french, and I did not get the reward. If it is linked to the language it is setting, it is really depressing. They even send me an e-mail to advertise this.

My opinon : If faction can either go to ally, neutral, friend of the UFP then any faction can go in the 2 faction system then the following can be added : Cardassian. Imperial Romulan, I really like the idea of the Republic being allied with the Federation and The Empire allied with the Klingon (that is a rational as the…

Yes, this is the best solution. The one that I advocate. The war should be meaningfull. That is correct too. The zone should have non pvp activity to have people go there and have a reason to go other than pvp. Because otherwise as you tell we can just queue for pvp or challenge people inthe sector. The DSE was a random…

This is going off topic. As some one said, we have new politcal setting in which basicaly, the Romulan Empire is in Total Chaos. We have a Romulan Republic founded by a reunificationist. Several Romulan colony applying to enter the UFP. It is only rational that the antagonist is the Klingon Empire (except that they fight…

I agree with the OP, the party amplifier is a grieving tool because it intereact with people that don't want. This is a way to attack people (Someone starte the amplifier deliberatly to anger me). So The party amplifier should work only on the character in the same party as the player starting it and a limit number of pnj.…

As every one told you. The best solution is to have an account per person. Imagine when they will be bigger with each one there computer : they will want to play at the time. They might delete the other character. No NO. Several people on the same account is jsut a big NO.

Yes, indeed the way space death work (and death generally) bother me too like the OP. This is an old topic. I have raise it one month ago I think. You should be able to find the thread if you search. This a RPG so if I die, I hope it has a meaning. I am on the side of those who want that death matter. I don't want to see a…

As a non english-speaking person, I want to be able to use my language in the zone chat. Separating people according to language is done in other game but we need to have a sufficient number of that other player population and I don't think this is the case in Star Trek. Beside, I like the possibility to meet other people…

I read that some want to end this war and other want to escalade it. I think we need both. Let me explain. If we get more political combinaison that can evolve let's say every month. We can have peace between some faction and why not between the fed and the klingon, or we can have war or cold war (the uneasy peace between…
-
*rant on* I am very BUT VERY UNHAPPY. I will be in the oountry side with no internet during the give away. I HAT PWE for that. The give away should stay at least 3 weeks so every one can participate. One week and some poeple can be unable to participate like me. This is unfair. *rant off* Sorry I needed to express my…

Well I do believe that war (ie pvp) should be between 2 factions. But the solutions for me is to have an evolving political situation that lead to have the factions at war or/and the alliance shift. Or even to have 2 wars : Fed vs Cardassian while Klingon fight Romulan. Any combinaison is possible but must be 1 alliance vs…
-
Just for the record, I hate people that PM me for fleet invite even more than random (I block them). PM is private and I don't like people entering my privacy without me speaking to them first. If you need to invite : you have the zone or local channel and why not create a looking for guild channel? There is the forum too.…

Yes, the RTS would be nice though the time building would be in real days. I have already think on this line but I don't think this solution will fit in STO. The idea is good for an original fantasy RPG in my opinion but not for an evolution of STO. I think too that you are too sceptical about the dyunamic event. I don't…

I like the idea that a new faction (especially the Borg) does not work like the other. And having you borg Queen raise a minion army is just fun. Though I am strictly against this ability in liberated borg. Liberated borg cannot assimilate (and must not) other living form. This is part of being liberated, they get back to…
-
The Scimitar was made only for NPC by the scenarist of the movie so why player can have it? Though I agree that we need more ship from the series and that they should be playable, I don't see why preventing people to fly existing ship when there is no rational in the ship available to the player. I would prefer that there…
-
No, you say there is no way to fight in hyperspace (unless you only refer to Star Wars hyperspace?). I say that in Star Trek ship can fight in hyperspace. I just tried to make a technobable as to why they would drop out of hyperspace but nothing prevent them to exchange shoot at warp 9 if they want to (I remind an episode…
-
Well I don't get that people get Scimitar in first place, but if we go to let's every one have what ever they want then, ok let's have tehm. The Scimitar has already break the barrier of the acceptable. Just my opinion.
-
Yes, this is exactly the problem we are tackling here. The basic flaw. A small step would be to make dynamic event. Example, the Borg appear in Sirius Sector - we win ok, we loss then anothar mission appear Saying that Borg are attack a planet in the sector if wa fail again then Borg cube can begin to appear on the sector…
-
No, you miss the point. I was refering to other and oldr games (I remind 2 on the Atari ST) and to some extend the movies where the constitution is describe are more powerful than D7 or the Romulan Warbird. In Starfleet Command/Battle the Klingon's ship does have less rear/side shield. Though dues to some missreading from…
-
Interesting, the map seem is quite nice. I am not sure I get or agree with your sector map though. I have not read the rules though. I love the campaign idea and the control of territory. But I prefer to play in pug. I really hate to have to make a team that's something that might prevent most people from playing I guess…
-
Yes, this one one of most MMO developpers' thinking flaw. They see that everything has to be balanced at the player level. There are other way to balance things. My experience is that balance is not important as long as there is a challenge (ie that the imbalance is not too much.) Most real battle are not balanced but some…
-
You are wrong on several account. The first being that the speed of light is the same in any referential, which mean that a phaser will always move way faster than a ship, so it can be used at warpspeed without problem. For Star Trek, 2 people give the answer : you shoot them. The show give many exemple (at least one in…
-
Which video link? You are pointing the fundamental flaw of the MMORPG model. They took a on eplayer campaign and expect to make it into a MMO. This just does not work... but we have to do with it. Though denying reality is madness, so I won't follow you on this path. It would have been better if the episode were holo…
-
First, thanks for the video about the effect of apellet send at high speed. I remind, that yes, a constitution class is able to wipe out a planet surface (kirk threaten a world of mass destruction in an episode and was not bluffing. It was "wargames" I think but I am not sure). So yes a torpedo impacting a city would…
-
Jumpingjs, What you said is factually incorrect. Admiral is the way to address a Vice-Admiral, which is actually the maximum rank in the french fleet, Admiral being just a distinction and not a real rank per se. So yes, you can say we are admiral from the pointwe have a TRIBBLE-admiral rank. Thought to answer Askray, the…
-
I have learn to ask the impossible because I do get the impossible from time to time. So event if the OP is raising a very old them if we all agree the dev might end up doing something.
-
This is exactly what I don't like, there should only be variable rarity level of stuff. This is bad game design to make levelling stuff and end game stuff. You play 3 years on a game in which you reach lvl max in 1 month. What is the point of creating stuff for less than 1% of the time? Second, there is no rational to…
-
I fully support the above post. As for the admiral flying ship. Surely they can. Yamamoto did have a ship (the yamato). The problem is that we are ALL Admiral and that is strange. Most admiral does clerical (enderstand management) job of planification job. As for the movie Kirk was not officially in command it is the…
-
As a matter of fact if we advance in time (which is good look at GW2 living story) we will have new technology that will make the present one outdated. This is as it should be and has nothing to do with the level cap. The main problem is that the new ship should be avialable as T5 are not as a T6 for higher up. Which…
-
I agree with that. Beside, vice-admiral is actually the max rank in my country army, admiral is title given to some but is not a rank per se. And you address a vice-admiral as "admiral". So really, no more title. Rank must mean something. A rear-admiral can command a fleet, no problem if he is the officer with more…
