Also the animation for DSC era ships seems to fire back then curve forward (in-game that is). a lot dumb fire torpedo tubes IRL weren't directly forward or directly back but in an angle or sometimes to the side.
-
Honestly "One size fits all" solutions are boring, once you find that solution there's not really any reason to experiment or try something new.

"all we need is something happen to the G that demands that the ENT-F is pulled out of mothballs and the recommissioned" Obviously this would mean there would not be 2 ships named the "Enterprise" in the active roster, but say if G was damaged beyond repair, they probably would take F out of Mothballs instead of waiting H…
-
Honestly the ENT-G isn't a total impossibility to harmonize, all we need is something happen to the G that demands that the ENT-F is pulled out of mothballs and the recommissioned, decommissioning doesn't mean "is destroyed", just "is taken out of service" and to use a real life example the Iowa class battleships were…

In other news for some reason I didn't realize just how big this kitty was My main (the character in the Captain's chair) isn't a small lady

The Falcon is perfect capable of making its own lane if needed (I mean if it was stuck to pre-existing lanes what would it need to calculate to jump into Hyperspace, it would be like taking a highway yes you might have to think of the optimal route in those high ways but you wouldn't have to try to figure out where the…

a Xeno-linguist since it's an alien language ;)

Yeah there should be countdown on top of the daily progress bar (the yellow one) it's also a convenient way of looking if the stuff you did was counted (sometimes events bug and won't count towards progress) as the countdown only shows up if you've made progress. EDIT: the countdown was actually below the daily progress
-
IIRC you saw ships firing multiple shot at more or less the same time during the big battles in DS9 too and then there's the "fire everything" scenes for the Enterprise (NCC-1701-D) that fired at least 3 (1 from the saucer and 2 from the nacelles). I read it more as change in Policy rather then a tech upgrade, during more…

I don't about the pasta or Hieroglyphics but the code might as well be an alien language so someone who isn't familiar with it.
-
Often time it's less about the dev being lazy and more about dev being under an unreasonable deadline, that's generally the result of 99% of those weird dependencies, you had to get it done yesterday and what you did kind of works even if it's not even close to optimal.
-
Or just a max updated turret (if you're an engineer)
-
Well it's a vanity pet there's nothing to be gained or lost by holding on to it and the Foundry community was quite dedicated so we like to keep our memories of it.
-
You'd be surprised how temperamental rigging an outfit can be, as with everything "it's more complex then you think" might apply
-
these are all good advice, especially the ones about the skellies and the final boss, while it might fall under "less is more", while yes immunity isn't true immunity IIRC (seem to remember from one the Ten Forward streams that is really just really extreme resist and can be overwhelmed), though to exploit that you'd need…

So about 10-12 feet for the whole deck, so about 3-3.5 meters (give or take)
-
so 2.5 m to 3 m, with probably 3 m -3.5 m for the whole deck including the floor and roof plates
-
remove the "/" from the first quote tag and it should work (like I did in this message), also I'm guessing the Pioneer shuttle bay is different from the Connie one with is why they both haven't been fixed
-
Yoshi-P came to that project to fix the mess the original team for 1.0 did (he didn't join until 1.x content and it was he made the estimate that it was impossible to salvage 1.0 and they needed to do a full rebuild from the ground up), the original 1.0 had some rather weird ideas, like not having a jump (which is why even…
-
I think the Jellyfish is just the most recent example, I can remember many threads prior to the release of the Jellyfish where people wanted to nerf something that wasn't their preferred playstyle in non-viability. EDIT:Also is just me or is there an empty extra page on this thread with others too?
-
I think FF14 is much better example of game of STO's size having an engine swap. As Final Fantasy XIV 1.0 used a modified version of the Final Fantasy XII engine, while Final Fantasy XIV 2.0 and beyond uses an engine similar to Final Fantasy XV but optimized for MMO use. Why I think FF14 is a better example as it was an…
-
Honestly if the intention was "send off to the whole Berman era" they failed as I said before the episode doesn't seem to respect the current series at all instead it seems to try to recreate past glories at expense of the current product.
-
It's best to think of the game engine similar to the foundations of building, you can't really replace it without rebuilding the rest too. Honestly I think new engine might once all the previous content has been rebuilt to it add a bit better lighting and maybe some minor mechanical updates but nothing like some people are…
-
That's what I meant when I said it was done in at expense of ENT. There was no respect towards the ENT cast and crew in the story and they seemed like guest stars in their own series, it should have been Archer's story with Riker as an outside observer/framing device, instead it ended Riker's story with Archer as the…
-
Because Alien isn't "if you own this it unlocks the option", all options it has are always unlocked.
-
Yeah it's just that there's those who think only reason Cryptic hasn't fixed all bugs is they're either malicious or incompetent and there will be massive paragrim shift there with DECA (not likely as DECA is probably also in the business to make money and thus will act accordingly and will not do things that cost a lot…
-
Yeah that sounds like after the fact justifications, though it was known that Moonves hated Star Trek (or I think it was Scifi in general I can't recall at moment) it still doesn't really add up. The ironic thing is that the "love letter to a previous series" could work but in ENT it was done at expense of the current…
-
Forgot about that but yeah it kind of is a good example of bad way of doing a shout out to previous series, instead of celebrating Enterprise thru the eyes of the TNG cast we got an episode where the ENT cast are guest stars with Riker and Troi being the main characters, a very poor way of doing a final episode of a series.
-
Sure but that was again another case of things being built organically into the narrative, I can't remember any Trek examples of call out to an older series that seemed out of place in the narrative, but there's been ones in other series I've watched that seemed like they stopped the narrative to wink at the audience.
-
I build "jack of all traits" too, I can't recall what I have on my main currently and I don't got the Typhoon (yet), sure I'm not good at anything but my build is "good enough" for most situations and I've so far not had to deal with my DPS being insufficient, at least on my main or my TOS Sci toon (my 2 best geared ones)
