  • I have been unable to play at all for more than 3 weeks. Game has been slow to load in for months, but since after 4/12 the game takes about 2 minutes to load in, then crashes to desktop. Filed a ticket with support. They closed the ticket before resolving the matter. All my drivers are up to date and hardware is good.…

  • Another instance where a designer can't figure our how to connect the pieces. Hard Pass.
  • My fleet is a Klingon Fleet. KDF Elite Force is one of the old ones. Many of us do not even play Federation, with the exception of those of us who had to be level 25(?) before we could roll a KDF. So many have left the game because of broken game mechanics, inclusion of discovery, and the total butchering of the Klingon…
  • Has anyone here had problems slotting Elite Orion Slavers in the Blackguard? A fleet member bought the ship. It slots any fighter hanger but the slavers. I find this odd. Is this a known bug? I cant think of any reason. Thanks
  • What I want to see is more race specific ships. We have 1 Vulcan, 1 Andorian, 2 Caitan, 1 Foreman, 3 Iconian, 3 Tholian, some Voth and Vaudwar, a few Orion, 4 Xindi, and some Undine ships, but no ships from other faction aligned species. Surely Tellerites have an advanced ship, or the Leatheans. Surely Orions, one of the…
  • Ah, this story we enjoyed very much. Tell us more that we may be entertained and enthralled.

  • The Nakuhl special abilities are great. They force some change to circle and shoot. The problem is they are spammed too much. The AI needs a check statement to limit frequency.
  • Tunok of House Korvas is the next Chancellor. I am the greatest Klingon warrior of our time. J'mpok said so. :D
  • Sir, we have an Omega! (Ominous music) 1/(1-1) (Universe implodes due to divide by 0)
  • Threatening stance is a poor name. If i stand in front of someone in a threatening way they are more likely to run than fight. Threat generation does the opposite. Boosting aggro is a game thing. No soldier says shoot me, but the ability should be called "Shoot Me".
  • Games without challenge fail from lack of interest. Games that only the elite will try due to difficulty fail from tribal elitism.
  • Ah, if only there were time to read so much from so many thteads. At least it states it isn't out of the realm of possibility for later.
  • I would suggest something similar to the Power House in Champions Online. You can do a respec, then test the build in the test area. If you don't like how your choices work you can return to the skill trainer and reset without a token as long as you don't leave the power house map. Do the same in STO. As long as you are at…
  • Ok, I've spoken the English language my whole life and that is the first time I've seen that usage. Mines would be buffed by kit skill on Tribble and explosive skill on Holo, not weapons skill. Same for orbital strike. Weapons display their flat damage potential and possible DPS. This amount isnt inclusive of captains…
  • Most of the time when I log in I just use the launcher. I rarely sign in to ARC except to buy zen. I have absolutley zero interest in playing another MMO and my wife would make my life hell if I started spending time on nee games. I guess STO and CO, combined with managing a large active fleet takes a.lot of my time. Go…
  • I completely agree with this. It would then allow players 1-2 points to put in something else to broaden character build variety.
  • I do not know what you mean by "Emphasis mine" As for your assertion that 0 or no points in weapons will be as effective as current on holodeck, I see no evidence this is correct. With no traits slotted, no gear, no skills selected, as close to a blank slate a near maxed out level 60 character can be, there is no base…
  • Shields are just an extra health pool with slightly different rules and buffs.
  • I do not agree with putting ground weapon type skills (pistol, rifle, assault) into the tree. Those traits are unlocked in the Rep and Specialization system. Skills in the skill system should be baseline improvements from training that improve general not specific performance. The problem is not enough skill points for…
  • I don't believe text labels within the skill borders would be more readable. I would suggest a deliniated columnar verticle area with a pair of columns to the right with the score name and the score in column and row. Reduce the width of the skills portion slightly. Should be clearer for new users and a better tool to…
  • I would be interested in a feature to see currents status scores in the UI for skills and in combat buffs. The numbers, not icons. Similar to the fps information current in the upper right corner. It would make testing, bug busting, and troubleshooting easier.
  • I had a few minutes to look at my romulan sci this evening. This character is not exceptionally well equiped and is currently leveling a Romulan tactical command warbird. The Traelus daily mission was nearby so I decided to use it to see how things worked. The new threat control seems to work well. The ship was set up with…
  • Null stobg2015 You new here? ;) Not new here, with 705 posts just here not including time in Champions Online as well. I just don't participate as much because I'm not interested in arguing and protecting sacred cows. What I AM interested in is accurate and unbiased presentation of facts so I can judge whether my time…
  • It would be more productive to have the information now for testing before the changes go live.
  • I ported my Rom sci to Tribble. I skilled this character to max out the sci tree. What is the third ultimate ability? It mentions improvement to "probability manipulation" what is that? I know of "probability logistics" from sci skills on holodeck. Maxing out everything in the sci tree with 3 embassy PRG comsoles and the…
  • So I ported over a engineer, tac, and sci, level 60 each. Duplicating builds is for the most part not possible. We can get close on space. Ground would take at minimum 3-4 more point. I don't care what the propaganda published in this and the Tribble test skill revamp thread state, they are just that. A sales pitch to ease…
  • null @scripp It also brings back memories of Cryptic's specialty system implementation which included a hard nerf to the Might set in Champions in iirc 2011. A nerf which made many quit playing. Sometimes balance isn't.
  • Well, this is another fine kettle of gagh they've gotten us into. Now we have the space Hitler youth brown shirts telling dad to go pack sand. Kids, listen to your father. Can't you see what you're doing to his ulcer?! Oye! Have a Coke and a smile. Love your neighbor as you would love yourself. Give a hoot don't pollute.…
  • They could help with this so much by letting us pick the color of our weapons effects. For example, Polaron mixes are still Polaron with different colors and special effects. Just let us set the color. Why have the heavy bio phaser rep turret green? It's phaser damage. Etc.
  • The psychotic photonic maintenance slasher from the Devidian chain. I like quoting him to terrorize new and old players who find him alarming. Best mission in the game. >:)
