I think something similar happened to me. I had 3 of the 2x ship slot items from the legendary bundle on one character (in inventory). When I logged in after the patch yesterday the items had gone and the character had 6 extra ship slots. It looks like they opened themselves. It's not a huge deal as I was probably going to…
Can somebody more familiar with the games industry explain to me the overriding importance of the DR metrics because i don't really understand it. The cost of making the DR expansion is a sunk cost regardless of how much it gets played. If I had money in the company I'd definitely be interested in overall performance and…
Surely I don't have to link to the 100s of forum threads claiming the game is being made less trek-like e.g. removing exploration? And I may have put it badly but in my experience gamers and gamblers don't overlap much. Almost everything that gets added these days has a gambling element in it, the upgrade system is a good…
I think you're right. I really don't understand the economic strategy PWE must be following. If you asked me I'd say there are two groups of people prepared to spend large amounts of money - Star Trek fans and medium to hard core gamers. But they're alienating both. The game gets less like Star Trek over time, which turns…
First, thanks to whoever organized the survey. It obviously didn't happen without a lot of work. Though I think the numbers are likely to be somewhat overstated for a couple of reasons. Nobody should be paying the highest costs you quote as the costs of raising crafting skills are low (in everything except time). When…
True, but the difference is more than triple what can be accounted for by a 20% sales tax. I'm open to corrections but it's hard to believe that we are being charged fairly.
The wording of the announcement seems ambiguous to me. Are we watching Smirk test the ship or are they unlocking it on Tribble for us to test? Having sat through the last three of these streams I'd say the likelihood that it will start and finish late is pretty high. I might not bother this time, I'll see how tired I am at…
