No, this does the opposite. You want people to be turning zen into dilithium, not the other way around. This makes the exchange problem worse.
-
The title should say Mirror Nova. I think it works fine on the normal Nova ships.

No. There is some merit in the idea that STO writers could make it better, but I doubt they'd be allowed to fix the big problems, so the only real draw to the new content is dead on arrival. I really like this idea. Very thematic -- an "All Access" pack where 95% of the content is from CBS procedurals and '50s sitcoms. I…

Of course the traits are tied to the mastering of the ship. They are tied thematically. Janeway, for instance, had to captain her ship for seven full years before she was able to unlock the Ablative Field Projector. Why should you get it right away?
-
That's not a bug. Some ships are still Fed-exclusive, the Assault Cruiser probably because it is still the canon timeline Flagship, the others because the other factions already have their version (at least in the Romulan case, Jem maybe later).
-
I'd love to see Ferenginar, but I'd really only be interested if it were an adventure zone. I wonder if a non-combat adventure zone is feasible. Maybe pickup & deliver mechanics, with fluctuating prices and scores based on the amount of profit you made?
-
I could see an "eject warp plasma" weapon being moderately useful, except, obviously, that it already exists. I can't think of any other kind of powerful aft-mounted weapon, besides mines, that wouldn't just seem like an obvious gimmick to make aft-weapon slots effective. Every time it will be "why can't I just mount this…
-
I really believe that the whole Quadrant could have been done as an Underspace map. It would have made a lot more sense. You might have to jazz it up a little to make it pretty, naturally.
-
You can talk to Kurland at the new DS9.
-
Yeah, Fed'Hadar weren't able to get stranded in space, so when they fixed that problem it accidentally made the mission accessible for Romulans. You can't do it, though, only pick up the mission. If you were to do it, you'd get the Azura Comm code mission reward, when Romulans have the Suliban code instead, so that part…
-
But what about the poor bridge cat?
-
Assuming they are one-time use? That's a great idea.
-
The point of seeing Enterprise on the Enterprise-D isn't Enterprise, it's the Enterprise-D. You see a scene in the episode Pegasus that, beyond some slight aging of the actors (and a Riker lookalike in Ten Forward), is no different than the episode itself. Since the simulation took place after the events of Enterprise, and…
-
It wasn't, though. Seven makes a reference to the events of First Contact. Enterprise existed on the Enterprise-D's holodeck.
-
That's why I like that the Reputation currencies are exactly that, reputation. Something you can't buy or sell, something you have to earn for yourself, or trade birds for. It's a very Trek idea.
-
That second one is such a bad headline. Nothing about the press release says, suggests, or even hints at a TNG reboot. It doesn't even make sense if the point is to include Patrick Stewart. A sequel is not a reboot. A reboot of TNG would be criminal. Even a reboot of Voyager, which kills me because I know just a few small…
-
Yeah, you have to stay within a decent range of the ships, but the drain is phenomenal.
-
The console that comes with the Laeosa (and T6 Nebula/Naj'sov) destroys shields pretty completely, and it's not even a single-target ability.
-
That's just not true. Up until they ended Enterprise, the people making Trek made a lot of effort to keep things consistent. They made some mistakes, and made some choices to ignore old info in service of a better story, but canon wasn't just thrown away wholesale until very recently. Look up Kellam de Forest if you get a…
-
It isn't a bug.
-
Yeah, sorry. I largely play antisocially too. And, for the record, the target next friend thing doesn't even work right, either, having tested it. I did have it rebound though, although I guess there was a reason I stopped using it.
-
F1 targets yourself, Fs 2-5 target your team (unless this question was about the console version, I have no idea there). That always worked for me. EDIT: I was wrong. I guess I rebound it. I set F2, 3 etc. to Target Next Friend, Target nearest friend, etc. I don't use it much, and its inexact, but it does work.
-
I didn't say a lack of lore, I said a lack of content. It's one thing to say that stories could be made, it's another to divert resources away from the rest of the game in order to make them. If a large enough group of players is interested in the Dominion faction, they might think about making Dominion-exclusive missions,…
-
If you click on the XP bar at the top of the screen, you can see the in-game Jem'Hadar class progression. The idea is already fleshed out, they just don't have the content to support it.
-
This would be crazy. The Jem'Hadar have no concept of normal reproduction in their culture, such as it is. We don't even know if the "males" are capable of reproduction -- in fact, it seems likely that they aren't, so simply adding females wouldn't solve that problem. Not to mention the more than a little disturbing fact…
-
Oh, the beautiful Faeht. I... I'm going to need a lot of black.
-
I did end up watching this. It was very well-produced, even though I was a little in & out on the story, and I had a little trouble keeping track of the characters. They won my respect early on when Kem(?) made fun of Strange's baseball cap ("it looks like your head has a beak"). That showed me that they were at least…
-
No more or less wrong, sure. The problem with Hugh's ship, other than the ugliness, is that it was clearly a ship (I'd actually say space station) partway through being assimilated. Now I know most people don't care about how these things are explained away, but it isn't a standard design that you can say that the Lobi…
