They could always do what WoW did with Mists of Panderia... once your first character to unlock/max out a rep does, they can buy a "rep discount token" for their account. So the second (and so on) toons doing the same rep grind can earn +20% more or something. It's a decent compromise.

I agree with the post about nothing to spend Fleet Marks on. We need SOMETHING to convert those marks into credits. Too often I'm in a fleet where the paltry 800 or whatever marks for a project are filled as it's listed... leaving hundreds to just burn dil or ec on provisions and TRIBBLE (or worse, common DOFFs). Please…
-
...so, there is no reason to ever get a Very Rare "efficient" BOFF if they are only used as ship crew (not away team)? That seems counter-productive to having very rares... at least trait-wise. Sure would have saved me a few million EC if this was somehow known in the game. I never suspected that my character needs to…

This, this... THIS. So much: this. That said, it seems to be a working business model for them, and it speaks more to us as customers than it does to them the provider of the merchandise, really. I.E. we'll take it and ask for more.

There are some serious network issues happening right now. Check your lag via command shell: tracert patchserver.crypticstudios.com You'll likely see some high ms hops or even timeouts (*)... People are starting to complain in this thread already.
-
Why on earth would they disable the [ CODE ] tag in the support section? I mean, really, who does that? Makes my hopes that they resolve their network issues pretty small...
-
I'm seeing timeouts as well... the first two addresses are my internals, but all those asterisk (*) timeouts are worrisome. Tracing route to patchserver.crypticstudios.com [208.95.185.41]over a maximum of 30 hops: 1 2 ms 2 ms 2 ms TRENDnet [10.0.0.250] 2 3 ms 2 ms 2 ms 192.168.0.1 3 40 ms 40 ms 41 ms…

Yeah, I meant to type TWO (2) fleet armor consoles + ONE (1) universal. Reason is, I bought three, then learned about diminishing returns on armor (but not tac...) so I have a spare in the bank.
-
All excellent comments and recommendations. I have a lot to "play" with now! Which is a good thing, as I've started running out of "things to do at 50" (that keep me interested). I'll look into the BO3 + DBB as a Torp replacement, along with a reman Tac to replace Tovan. I never thought of that. Also, I have a lot of…
-
Thanks, that is what I was wondering... if the Omega stuff was worth the grind if one has access to the Elite Fleet stuff. I'll try swapping in an emitter array. I used to run with two of them (blues, Mk XII) but opted for the +crit consoles. I'll experiment with that and BOFF skills... I really am depressed that there's…

The Romulan vet ship is also very nice, but not as "tanky" as the mogai appears to be. I sometimes switch between Fleet Mogai, Vet Ship, and Rom Temporal Destroyer (though w/o a Singularity, it should have the word "Romulan" removed from it).
-
I want at least four [I Win Button Mk ∞ [LoLz]x4] on my dream ship... and maybe 3-4 turret versions in the back. If there are no turret versions, then at least some [PoofYerDead Mine Launcher Mk ∞ [LoLz]x4] would be nice... Why win once with the push of a spacebar, when one can win four times with the same effort? LoL
-
Well, I came back (logged in after a few hours off), and the ship is back to the default skin. It did work, when I went and removed the shield, skinned/colored, re-added shield... for that session. I suppose it does not remember from session to session.
-
That was it! Except that I do not have the omega shield, rather the Dielectric Oscillation Resilient Shields Mk XI (very rare). Once I took that off, I could customize. Then I put them back on, and the changes stayed. Thanks for that tip!

Is PWE handling bug reports and GM tickets? I thought PWE was just the distributor... it wouldn't be the first time Cryptic threw up their hands and sold off their title to their distributor, as any City of Heroes player could tell you. PWE's websites and forums are the WORST I've ever seen in "modern" times. I mean, they…

My Scimitar is named "I.R.W. Space Invader" - as it's icon looks like it's from the game, and it also invades up all the space on my monitor... even zoomed all the way out. My Daeinos Heavy Destroyer is named "R.R.W. e'Karus" - after Icarus.
-
I thought that it had been fixed, too... but it was not. At least for me, this is still buggy.
-
People have been begging for a VOTE-TO-KICK function for some time now. Seeing how bad the programming is for simple things like tailor, mail, exchange, etc. I doubt Cryptic would want to add another problematic feature. Still: I'd love to have one.
-
When you buy enough Zen. I.E. never.
-
I have had this (think I still do). I'll get mail for expired auctions, but nothing is attached. I sent in a ticket (like all others, it was not actually responded to by a living being), but lately, MOST of the expired stuff now has attachments. Some don't, and in the past NONE did... so it is an improvement. One actually…
-
Yeah, just hang out with a bunch of strippers, and you'll have a great time! ;-)
-
I walked into this same problem. I bought just the Scimitar, then realized I need all three D-noughts to get the set, but of course once you buy ONE, the bundle is no longer available, so I ended up wasting 7500 zen to get the console set. I am positive this is by design, as there are no helpful indicators for…
-
Everyone I know who plays it, loves it - but only as a missile boat (as others have stated). "Law" (your free purple DOFF) is great for a torpedo boat. I like DHC's in a Scimitar or Daeinos Heavy Destroyer (1,000 day vet ship); so much fun.
-
Mine would be the Daeinos Heavy Destroyer (1,000-day vet bird) with slightly better Hull, Shield 1.0 (or 1.1) and another fore weapon and more console spaces. It's such a fun ship, quick, fast and deadly, but does lack some hull/shield strength. I'm going between the Scimitar (w/ Thalaron weapon) and the Vet bird. I like…
-
As I mentioned in the original post, I tried the random button to no avail. The only thing working with random are the pieces and window types. The MATERIAL, COLORS and SKIN sections all change, but do not actually apply to the ship. I can select everything: colors, patterns (skins), and materials, but they do nothing / no…
-
I thought it was just me, but I got everything on one toon (first one I made since coming back and since Legacy of Romulus was released); but then I rolled a SF and KDF toon and only got some of the stuff around level 5 or 10. Seemed a bit confused.
-
The tailor has so many bugs, errors, clippings, etc. that it is remarkable it has gone on so long. I get BOFF crashes, I also crash when changing views (large preview to small, etc), I cannot wear any but the first 2 costumes (initial and fleet). The uniform save/load is TRIBBLE beyond belief, etc. I'd say don't get me…
-
I also get the Change-View crash-to-desktop bug... along with a TON of other problems with the tailor (KDF uniform bug, broken costume slot bug, clipping errors, etc). I've been trying for weeks to find anything on this, and all the posts going back a few years (even before the tailor UI overhaul) shows the same errors.…

Allow me to forward Cryptic's official response: SHUT UP AND BUY MORE ZEN ALREADY. (I might have licked the sugar coating off of it, but the gist is still there).
-
Yep, the old KDF bug hits my Romulan, too. I've put in tickets, etc. to no avail (still not responded to); I suppose players on the KDF side have been given the big F.U. for some time now, as all that ever happens is more items for the cash shop. Shut up and buy more Zen already!
